K-9 unit celebrates 30th anniversary helping Illinois, Wisconsin departments

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com Several volunteer rescue dogs walked through cornfields Sunday looking for Elgin resident Carol Lussky. Following her scent, the K-9 unit started near Lussky’s home, traveled down Big Timber Road and eventually found her lying down in nearby cornfields.

However, Lussky wasn’t actually lost or injured. She was hiding as part of a training exercise.

Sunday’s training session was one of many conducted by Illinois-Wisconsin Search and Rescue Dogs around McHenry County and surrounding areas.

The program is an all-volunteer

K-9 search-and-rescue unit on call for law enforcement and fire departments.

“We help many departments that – because of budget constraints – don’t have K-9 units that are specifically trained for search-and-rescue efforts,” said Lussky, who has been a member of the unit for 20 years.

Crystal Lake resident Sharon Naskrent, one of the unit’s founding members, also attended Sunday’s training session. Naskrent said the dogs are trained in scent-specific trailing, human remains detection and water recovery to assist dive teams.

LAKE IN THE HILLS

Village president facing domestic battery charge appears in court

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – Lake in the Hills Village President Paul J. Mulcahy appeared in court Monday on a domestic battery charge.

Mulcahy, 64, was arrested and charged late in the evening of Nov. 6 by the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office after he allegedly grabbed a woman he was having a “dating” relationship with by the feet and dragged her down a flight of carpet-

ed stairs. The woman had scrapes and carpet burns on her back, according to court documents.

If convicted, the Class A misdemeanor could result in up to one year in Paul J. jail. Mulcahy was released Mulcahy from McHenry County Jail custody after posting 10 percent of his $2,000 bond.

Mulcahy declined to comment Tuesday on the pending charges or on his po-

sition as village president. Mulcahy has served as village president since May 2013. Mulcahy’s seat is up for election in the spring, as his term will end in 2017.

Since his arrest, Mulcahy has presided over village committee and board meetings.

He will next appear in court Dec. 12 before McHenry County Judge Charles Weech.

Shop with a Cop fundraiser set for Saturday

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com McHENRY – Marketing Connection Group 3 is hosting a fundraiser Saturday to support McHenry County Police Charities’ Shop with a Cop program.

The Shop with a Cop fundraiser will be from 6 p.m. to midnight at McHenry VFW Post 4600, 3002 W. Route 120. This event is open to the public and has a $5 cover charge.

All proceeds will go directly to McHenry County Police Charities, a nonprofit organization that offers programs to children in need.

Shop with a Cop is a program that involves local law enforcement taking underprivileged children on a shopping spree before Christmas. Each child involved will get as much as $150 to spend shopping, along with a winter hat, coat, gloves and boots.

Saturday’s fundraiser will feature food, a cash bar, raffles and a live auction. Although this year’s prizes have yet to be announced, past years’ big items included tickets to Chicago Bears games, limousine rides and flatscreen TVs. Live music also will be provided by The Thompson Duo from 6 to 7:30 p.m. followed by Chicago rock band LOL from 8 p.m. to close.

Last year, McHenry County Police Charities raised more than $23,000 for the Shop with a Cop program, which allowed police officers, deputies and state troopers to take about 200 local children Christmas shopping.

Woodstock mulls adding mural to area near Square

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – City officials want to pursue adding a mural to a wall near the historic Woodstock Square.

The City Council met Tuesday to discuss bringing the idea that has been in talks for years to reality. Local businessman Michael Stanard and council member RB Thompson have spearheaded the idea, which was largely met with support by the council.

The mural would stand 15 feet tall at its highest point, be 118 feet long and be located a block north of the Square off Main Street between the Woodstock theater and a vacant building. The mural would feature some of Woodstock’s claims to fame, such as images from the movie “Groundhog Day;” Orson Welles; celebrities who have come through the Woodstock Opera House; and Chester Gould, the illustrator behind the comic strip “Dick Tracy.”

A garden space with a donor kiosk and sculptures could possibly be included in the project. Other details of the project – such as what materials to use, maintenance, costs and ownership – still are to be determined.

Stanard, who owns the Woodstock-based advertising design studio One Zero Charlie, estimated the project could cost about $50,000, but nothing is set in stone, and fundraising will take place to pay for the mural.

Mayor Brian Sager said he was in support of the idea, but he wanted to iron out details before any action was taken. He said he had questions about a concrete cost and other concerns such as potential copyright issues.

Nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts are invited to attend #GreenFridayRestoration Day on Nov. 25, the day after Thanksgiving.

The restoration event, hosted by the McHenry County Conservation District, will take place at various conservation areas in the county.

Each site will be led by a different steward, and eventgoers can help the areas by cutting invasive honeysuckle

This rendering shows what a proposed mural could look like near the Woodstock Square.

“I think we can all recognize the potential benefits to the city,” Sager said.

“It’s a nice marriage, in my mind, of the artistic aspects of the community and that aspect of economic development. I think there are a lot of things that could come together.”

Council members expressed similar concerns to the mayor’s, but they all agreed to look into such matters and bring back the idea to another council meeting.

“I completely support this idea,” council member Maureen Larson said.

“The idea of Woodstock as a place for murals makes perfect sense to me. We are a cultural, artistic community. I think it’s great.”

The unit currently consists of nine dog handlers, two support members and 14 dogs, ranging from bloodhounds, to black Labradors, to Ger-

man shorthaired pointers. The dogs are creatively named Liebchen, Ragnar, Quinto, Stryker, Brix, Gus, Quest, Lilo, Bullet, Finn, Lily, Tater, Reggie and Remi.

Naskrent said her unit gives

“We really do provide a great service,” Naskrent said. “And I hope more agencies take advantage of it.”

Naskrent said she got involved because she loves working with dogs and wanted to help the community at the same time.

“We’re one of the longest-going search units around,” Naskrent said.

“There’s many now across the country, but we’re one of the oldest in the Midwest.”

Established in 1986, Illinois-Wisconsin Search and Rescue Dogs is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. In three decades, Naskrent said, the K-9 unit has performed 661 search callouts.

To celebrate the anniversary, the rescue dogs program recently hosted a national seminar called Canine Search and Recovery in Rosholt, Wisconsin, where about 124 dog handlers and instructors attended from all over the nation.

Time change takes toll on senior’s sleep cycle Nothing quite says “winter’s coming” than the return to Central Standard Time. That is, nothing quite says it like it getting dark at 4:30 p.m. each day.

Soon there will be white stuff on the ground to go along with the seemingly endless darkness.

It’s just not natural to want to go to bed at 8 p.m., is it? Yet that’s what my internal clock wants to do when it’s already been dark for three hours.

Suddenly I understand the desire to hibernate; wake me up when it’s spring.

My mother also is having some trouble getting used to the time change. More than a couple of times she’s been ready to go to bed at 4 p.m., even before the sun has fully set for the evening and before she’s even had her dinner.

Then, once she’s eaten, there is the inevitable attempt to go to bed at least an hour or two before her normal turn-in time.

Mother is a bit of a creature of habit. Mess with the timing, and there’s no telling what will happen. That be-

VIEWS Joan Oliver came all too apparent on the night the Cubs won Game 7 of the World Series against the Cleveland Indians.

My 85-year-old mother, a lifelong Cubs fan, naturally wanted to stay up a little later to see whether her team would finally end its 108-year-old championship drought.

Sure, I naively responded when she asked to stay up. Of course you want to see who wins. I do, too.

We all know that this game went into extra innings. Oh, and there was a rain delay, too.

Despite usually going to bed about 9 p.m., Mom was still up at 11 p.m., with no end in sight. She finally decided to hit the hay at the start of the rain delay, which worked out for me since I didn’t miss any action while I helped her.

So much for sleeping. Problem is, she wasn’t the only one not getting any rest.

Despite the Cubs’ victory making for one of the happiest days of my life, I found myself dragging and near tears from lack of sleep.

And Mom? Seemingly unaffected by her late-night antics. Some things just aren’t fair.

So forgive me if I hope she adjusts to this time change sooner rather than later.

At least one of us needs her sleep.

Unfortunately, something about staying up later messed up her sleep cycle.

There she was, up to go to the bathroom, just after the Cubs finally did win the game. I figured I’d tell her who won and she’d go to sleep until morning.

But no. She was up again about 3 a.m., this time talking to some imaginary “people” who were in her room.

“Mom, go back to sleep,” I pleaded, knowing that I’d have to be up and at it again in four short hours.

Another bathroom break broke the early morning silence about 4:30 a.m. or so.

LITH OKs virtually flat property tax levy estimate

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com LAKE IN THE HILLS – The village of Lake in the Hills plans on keeping its estimated property tax levy virtually flat for 2016.

The amount to be levied for corporate and special purpose property taxes for 2016 is about $5.5 million, according to village documents.

“It will be the seventh consecutive year that we haven’t increased the property tax levy, and we are pretty proud about that,” Village President Paul Mulcahy said.

The value of the taxable property in the village is set to grow by about 4 percent from last year, according to a preliminary estimate by the McHenry County Assessor’s Office.

Because of the projected increase

in equalized assessed value, the estimated tax rate is expected to decrease compared with last year, according to village documents.

The 2016 tax levies for debt service, which equal $759,250, are proposed to be abated, according to village documents, and therefore not included in the $5.5 million total.

According to the estimated levy, homeowners of a $250,000 home in Lake in the Hills would be expected to pay about $711 toward the village’s portion of property taxes if they take the general homestead exemption.

The village Board of Trustees on Thursday unanimously adopted a resolution estimating the levy amount.

The final property tax levy will be voted on at the Dec. 8 board meeting, interim Village Administrator Jennifer Clough said.

Mobile meth lab explodes in Morris laundromat

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com MORRIS – A mobile meth lab exploded Tuesday morning inside a Morris laundromat, and two suspects have been charged.

The incident occurred about 7:50 a.m. at the Wash ’N Dry at 531 Bedford Road. There were no injuries reported.

Morris Police Chief John Severson said surveillance video shows people coming into the business with items that could be used to “cook” methamphetamine. The laundromat is open around the clock, but does not always have staff on the premises.

“It appears they came into the business to have a controlled environment, but when they started cooking, things went bad and it exploded,” Severson said. “They dumped it outside and fled.”

At 11:30 a.m., officers located two people matching the description of the subjects in the video walking near Bedford Road and Black Street in Morris.

County Jail.

Severson said Tuesday night that additional charges were pending.

Firefighters did not find any fire at the scene of the explosion, but they did find what appeared to be a damaged lunchbox just outside the business.

Before surveillance video was located, police were unsure of the contents of the lunchbox.

Police canvassed the area for evidence and potential witnesses, Severson said. The Kane County Bomb Squad was called while police cordoned off the area and diverted traffic.

After the device was determined not to be an explosive, agents of the Joliet Metropolitan Area Narcotics Squad were called in to clean up the debris.

“There’s no evidence [operators Eric Ginnard – eginnard@shawmedia.com of] the business were involved. [The Emergency responders set up a parameter around Wash ‘N Dry Laundromat on Tuesday suspects] just picked their location,” Severson noted. after responding to a bomb threat in Morris.

The laundromat and an adjacent Jonathan Walters, 39, of Minooka, charges of possession of methamphet- fast-food restaurant were allowed to and Nicole Gonzalez, 41, of Morris, amine materials. reopen after police cleared the scene were questioned and then arrested on They were booked into the Grundy about 11:30 a.m., Severson said.

STATE

Dems, GOP remain far apart in budget talks

By IVAN MORENO

The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan suggested Tuesday that legislators should approve another short-term spending plan without giving in to any of Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner’s demands, indicating the ideological divide behind the state’s epic budget stand persisted through the bruising election season.

The Democrat made the comments after meeting with Rauner and other GOP leaders for the first time since Election Day, when the Republicans picked up enough seats in the state House to leave Democrats four votes shy of the supermajority they’d need to override the governor’s vetoes.

The Democrats lost two Senate seats but still have a veto-proof majority in that chamber.

Responding to Madigan’s comments, Republican leaders said they won’t agree to another partial spending plan and that Rauner’s call for business-friendly, union-weakening measures needs to be part of the discussions. Rauner also wants lawmakers to consider term limits and changing how legislative districts are drawn.

Madigan said the meeting was re-

‘Fast Eddie’ charged; case tied to tobacco deal

CHICAGO – A former Chicago alderman nicknamed “Fast Eddie” for his adeptness at backroom dealing was offered tens of millions of dollars in legal fees stemming from a $9 billion tobacco settlement with Illinois even though he did no legal work on the landmark civil case, according to an indictment unsealed Tuesday that charges him with breaking federal tax laws.

Edward R. Vrdolyak, 78, is a prominent figure in the often-corrupt history of Chicago politics, doing a 10-month stint in federal prison in 2011 in a $1.5 million real estate kickback scheme. In the mid1980s, he led an aldermanic bloc staunchly opposed to Chicago’s first black mayor, Harold Washington, and later focused on his successful law practice.

A lawyer referred to only as “Individual

“If we use the same framework, the odds are we’ll get a budget to finish off

this fiscal year,” Madigan said.

Illinois currently has a six-month spending plan that will last through December, and what Madigan is proposing would take the state through next June.

B” who did legal work on behalf of Illinois in the tobacco case secretly offered Vrdolyak $65 million from funds to be set aside in the 1998 settlement to pay private law firms that provided services to the state, the filing in U.S. District Court in Chicago said. It doesn’t say how much the once-powerful Democrat might have actually pocketed.

Illinois and other states had sued over health damage caused by tobacco. The settlement projected payments to Illinois of around $9 billion; some $180 million was eventually earmarked for legal fees.

The indictment doesn’t charge Vrdolyak with accepting the legal fees. Instead, it charges him with impeding the IRS and income tax evasion as he allegedly sought to help co-defendant and fellow lawyer Daniel Soso evade paying around $800,000 in income taxes. If convicted, Vrdolyak could face a maximum eight-year prison sentence.

that he’s starting a program to replace older license plates that he said won’t cost the budget-strapped state additional money.

The program will start next year and will be paid for within the agency’s current budget, White said during a news conference in Chicago. White said the program is needed because plate reflectivity diminishes with age, making it difficult for law enforcement to read plate numbers.

Judge delays trial for Melodie Gliniewicz

WAUKEGAN – A judge has delayed a felony trial for the widow of Fox Lake Police Lt. Joseph Gliniewicz, who killed himself and made it look like he was gunned down in the line of duty.

Lake County Judge James Booras on Tuesday pushed back Melodie Gliniewicz’s trial to Feb. 6. The delay is needed because defense attorneys and prosecutors are arguing about whether charges should be dropped.

Gliniewicz was indicted after her husband committed suicide last year.

She has pleaded not guilty to charges she siphoned money from the Fox Lake

vice programs and higher education institutions. Illinois is also incurring debt because it is shelling out more in court-ordered spending than it is collecting in taxes.

“I wish there was a greater sense of urgency from the Democratic leaders,” said Rep. Jim Durkin, the Republican House leader.

Madigan told reporters that he will appoint Democratic Rep. Greg Harris to be the party’s chief negotiator in budget discussions and that more appointments are coming. Republicans were taken aback, saying that wasn’t mentioned in the meeting.

“We heard the speaker’s comments and we’re frankly confused by them,” said Sen. Christine Radogno, the Republican Senate leader.

In the spring, both parties formed legislative groups to negotiate a budget and Radogno said it was her understanding that House and Senate leaders would use that as a starting point going forward, instead of starting the process again.

Rauner and legislative leaders are due to meet again Wednesday.

Lawmakers on Tuesday began their brief annual fall session, during which Democrats are expected try to overturn some of Rauner’s vetoes.

Rockford honored for helping vets find housing

ROCKFORD – The city of Rockford is being recognized by first lady Michelle Obama and Jill Biden for their work eliminating homelessness among veterans.

Rockford Mayor Larry Morrissey spoke at a White House panel Monday to discuss how his city has been able to help veterans find housing.

The city was the first to achieve the goal of ending homelessness as part of Michelle Obama’s “Mayors Challenge to End Veteran Homelessness.” The Department of Housing and Urban Development and Department of Veteran Affairs said Rockford has met the goal the past two years.

Rockford has addressed veteran homelessness by improving coordination among housing groups, government agencies, nonprofits and other organizations. The city also created a database to track veterans in the area to provide help when needed.

Oil pipeline company seeks lican Governors Association, said Tuesday on MSNBC that Trump permission to proceed

CANNON BALL, N.D. – The company building a $3.8 billion oil pipeline sought a federal judge’s permission Tuesday to circumvent President Barack Obama’s administration and move ahead with a disputed section of the project in North Dakota, as opponents held protests across the country urging it to be rejected.

Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners and a subsidiary asked the court to let them lay pipe under a Missouri River reservoir, a plan the Standing Rock Sioux says threatens its drinking water and cultural sites. The Army Corps of Engineers said Monday that it needs more time to study the impact of the plan.

While President-elect Donald Trump, a pipeline supporter, likely would greenlight the project when he takes office in January, the company is trying to win federal approval – or a court order – to allow it to go forward now.

Walker said the federal government’s focus should be on “fixing and maintaining our existing infrastructure” not “grandiose” high-speed rail lines, for example.

Trump meets with Pence amid transition challenges

By KEN THOMAS and JULIE PACE The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Hidden from the public in his Manhattan high-rise, Donald Trump huddled Tuesday with Vice President-elect Mike Pence as he tried to fill out key posts in his Cabinet.

But the transition team appeared to be straining under the enormous challenge of setting up a new administration.

Former Rep. Mike Rogers, a respected Republican voice on national security issues, announced he was quitting the transition effort.

And an apparent clerical oversight effectively halted the Trump team’s ability to coordinate with President Barack Obama’s White House.

With Trump out of sight for several days, his allies engaged in an unusual round of public speculation about his potential appointments – including their own futures – as the president-elect and his aides weighed the nation’s top national security posts.

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani seemed to be angling for secretary of state.

But Trump’s transition team was reviewing Giuliani’s paid consulting work for foreign governments, which could delay a nomination or bump Giuliani to a different position, said a person briefed on the matter but not authorized to speak publicly about it.

Giuliani founded his own firm, Giuliani Partners, in 2001, and helped businesses on behalf of foreign governments, including Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela.

He also advised TransCanada, which sought to build the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, and helped the maker of the painkiller drug OxyContin settle a dispute with the

Drug Enforcement Administration.

A Trump official said John Bolton, a former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, remained in contention for secretary of state.

Bolton has years of foreign policy experience, but he has raised eyebrows with some of his hawkish stances, including a 2015 New York Times op-ed in which he advocated bombing Iran to halt the country’s nuclear program.

Businessman Carl Icahn disclosed on Twitter, based on conversations with the president-elect, that Trump was considering Steve Mnuchin, a former Goldman Sachs banker, and Wilbur Ross, a billionaire investor, to lead the Treasury and Commerce departments.

Pence, now running the transition team, ignored questions from reporters both as he entered Trump Tower, a thick binder tucked under his arm, and as he left six hours later.

He took over from New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who spent months running transition operations before his demotion last week.

The switch has slowed Trump’s ability to coordinate with the White House. Pence has yet to sign a memorandum of understanding facilitating interactions between his team and Obama administration officials. Christie had signed the document, but Pence’s promotion makes it invalid.

A person familiar with the transition efforts said different factions in Trump’s team “are fighting for power.”

Indeed, Trump effectively created two power centers in his White House even before taking office. He named Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus as his chief of staff and flame-throwing media mogul Steve Bannon as his chief strategist, but called them “equal partners.”

Trump supports House nomination of Ryan for speaker

By ERICA WERNER

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Speaker Paul Ryan unanimously won his GOP colleagues’ votes on Tuesday for another term at the helm of the House. He told fellow Republicans he had President-elect Donald Trump’s support, and heralded “the dawn of a new, unified Republican government.”

“It feels really good to say that actually,” Ryan told reporters. “This will be a government focused on turning President-elect Trump’s victory into real progress for the American people.”

While victory was the GOP unifier, Democrats were verging on disarray.

House Democrats abruptly announced Tuesday that they were delaying their own leadership elections set for Thursday until Nov. 30 to give lawmakers more time to process disastrous election results.

It’s not clear whether the election delay might morph into a real challenge to Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.

She has led House Democrats for more than 12 years and has consolidated support with strong fundraising and an ability to deliver votes, but there’s long been grumbling from Democrats who say new leadership is needed at the top.

AP photo

House Speaker Paul Ryan of Wisconsin speaks with House Republicans before a special GOP leadership election Tuesday on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. As for Ryan, the Wisconsin Republican still has to win a floor vote for speaker in January, when all members of the House will cast ballots, including Democrats.

But he secured the nomination at a closed-door GOP conference vote Tuesday afternoon with the strong backing of his fellow House Republicans, even though a few conservative dissenters

pushed unsuccessfully to delay the balloting.

Those grumblings of dissent could hardly be heard over the buzz of enthusiasm as House Republicans convened for their first regular conference meeting since Trump won the presidential election. Even though a number of House Republicans, including Ryan, had opposed Trump or were critical

along the way, most said they’re now firmly on board and prepared to try to enact Trump’s agenda on immigration, infrastructure, energy and jobs.

Republicans also backed California’s Kevin McCarthy to continue as majority leader and Steve Scalise of Louisiana to stay on in the No. 3 job of House whip.

Lawmakers trooped out of their morning meeting in the basement of the Capitol smiling, pledging quick action to roll back President Barack Obama’s accomplishments and clutching red “Make America Great Again” hats.

“That was a nice fun touch. Now here’s my problem: Every member wants it autographed,” said GOP Rep. Chris Collins of New York, who has been tapped as congressional liaison to the transition team. “I’m going to have to say, ‘President-elect Trump, bring out your Sharpie, we’ve got to do a lot of autographing.’”

During the meeting, Ryan told colleagues that he’d spoken Tuesday morning with Vice President-elect Mike Pence, who said that he and Trump “are very supportive of the leadership team and are looking forward to working with them,” said Rep. Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo.

Stephen Bannon, campaign CEO for President-elect Donald Trump, looks on as Trump speaks during a campaign rally Nov. 5 in Denver. racists, homophobes and anti-Semites, but said that he does not share those opinions – and that the left harbors undesirable elements as well.

Yet Breitbart actively cultivates some of those themes, and Bannon has shown little patience for adjusting the site’s tone to pacify critics.

Under Bannon, Breitbart kept a running tab of news stories titled “black crime,” which catalogued the activities of supposed “black rape gangs” and “black mobs.” The site used a slur for transgender people in headlines and stories. And during the campaign – a period in which Bannon stepped aside from running the site – Breitbart.com sometimes went out of its way to identify Trump critics as Jews.

“I’ve known and worked with Steve Bannon, and he has traditional conservative non-racist, non-prejudiced views about the world,” said Joel Pollak, a senior editor at large at Breitbart, who called The Associated Press in response to a request for comment from Bannon on this story. “Lately, media conventions have determined that some of the traditional views of most of Western civilization are offensive.”

Bannon has publicly disavowed tolerance for prejudice. But allegations of anti-Semitism also have followed Bannon into his personal life as well. In 2007, his ex-wife alleged in court documents from their divorce that Bannon expressed open anti-Semitism, declaring that he didn’t want their two daughters “going to school with Jews.” Bannon disputed saying this.

WASHINGTON – When Donald Trump announced Stephen Bannon as his top White House strategist, critics re-erupted with allegations that Bannon was racist, sexist and anti-Semitic.

“I promise you he’s not as scary” as people said, Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway said on NBC’s “Today” show Tuesday. She called concerns about Bannon “very unfair.”

If history is any guide, Bannon won’t be putting those fears to rest anytime soon. As a conservative media brawler who became Trump’s campaign chief executive, Bannon has discarded norms for discussing race, gender and religion, often framing even abstract political fights in deliberately inflammatory terms.

“What we need to do is [expletive]-slap the Republican Party,” Bannon said in a 2010 radio interview.

For a man aggrieved with elite educational, business and media institutions, Bannon has risen to the top of some of them. Born into a Norfolk, Virginia, family of Catholic Democrats, Bannon served in the U.S. Navy before attending Harvard Business School. Afterward, he went to Goldman Sachs, leaving to start his own media-focused boutique investment banking firm. After selling the business to French banking giant Societe Generale, he became a film producer.

Although he created successful Hollywood films, the groundwork for his future career in politics came from a Reagan biopic, “In the Face of Evil,” which introduced him to conservative publisher Andrew Breitbart and author Peter Schweizer.

After Breitbart died unexpectedly in 2012, Bannon took the helm of a relaunch of his news site. Breitbart grew quickly, from 12 million monthly page views to more than 192 million by August of this year, according to the site.

During the Republican Convention, Bannon said Breitbart was “the platform for the alt-right,” a loose group espousing a provocative and reactionary strain of conservatism. Heavily influenced by the shock-based rhetoric of internet chat boards, the alt-right includes strains of white nationalism and aggressive anti-feminism.

The alt-right’s mainstream apologists describe those themes as a demonstration of free speech rather than a full-throated endorsement of prejudice.

In interviews, Bannon has acknowledged that the alt-right may attract some

ANOTHER VIEW

Time for Rauner, Dems to do deal

Legislators returned to Springfield Tuesday with important business undone.

With another election in the books, members of the Illinois House and Senate soon will take another whack at their version of governing.

So perhaps it shouldn’t be a surprise that, during the post-election veto session, the Democratic-controlled House and Senate will take up legislation that would require the state to spend hundreds of millions of dollars it doesn’t have.

How those votes come out will be indicative of whether legislators – Republicans and Democrats – learned anything from this week’s state and national elections.

Tuesday’s vote brought a cessation of overt hostilities between Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner and Democratic House Speaker Michael Madigan. Each claimed victory in their epic battle over the future of the state, and each has grounds to do so.

Madigan, who also heads the state Democratic Party, was able to defeat Republican Comptroller Leslie Munger, who was appointed by Rauner to fill the vacancy created by the December 2014 death of Judy Baar Topinka. That post will be filled by Madigan protege and former Democratic state Rep. Susana Mendoza, who has made it clear she intends to wage war on the GOP governor. Madigan also saw Democrats win the U.S. Senate seat held by Republican Mark Kirk.

But Rauner claimed an even bigger win because his triumphs were on Democratic turf. The GOP won five Democratic House seats while losing only one. That relieves Madigan of his supermajority by which he could overturn Rauner vetoes. The GOP also won two state Senate seats. Make no mistake about it, however. The Democrats, thanks to the state’s gerrymandered legislative districts, remain firmly in control of the General Assembly.

Of course, job one is for Rauner and Democratic legislative leaders to negotiate an end to the twoyear budget standoff. Rauner already has indicated he’s eager to make a deal. Senate Democratic leader Cullerton said he is “optimistic” about the two sides working out their differences.

Madigan, however, has indicated he still insists Republicans will accede to his way of doing things.

In other words, Madigan suggests Rauner abandon his economic growth package while acceding to Madigan’s spending plans and proposed tax increases. If he remains adamant about his my-way-or-thehighway approach, the budget standoff that began in June 2015 will continue with no end in sight.

It’s time to put the people of Illinois first and work out their budget differences in an atmosphere of divided government. The cost of failing to work together is one the people of Illinois cannot afford.

ANOTHER VIEW

From the fringe to the White House A long-standing practice of the modern White House is a division of labor between a chief of staff, who’s in charge of making the administrative trains run on time, and a political adviser, who counsels the president on the electoral consequences of his policies. In that sense, there’s nothing particularly new about President-elect Donald Trump’s decision to set up two lines of authority beneath him, one headed by Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus as chief of staff, the other by erstwhile campaign chief Stephen Bannon as “chief strategist and senior counselor.”

What is extraordinary, and not in a good way, is the nature of the latter choice. Bannon is a leading figure on the euphemistically titled alt-right, a previously obscure element on the far fringe of conservatism – until Trump’s campaign energized and mainstreamed it. On its flagship website, Breitbart News, which

Bannon dominates, the alt-right portrays itself as a middle-class uprising against a corrupt global elite. The movement can be more accurately described as deeply reactionary, rooted in a kind of white chauvinism, with disturbing overtones of anti-Semitism, visible in such Breitbart headlines as “Bill Kristol: Republican Spoiler, Renegade Jew,” or articles such as a recent attack on Post columnist Anne Applebaum as a “Polish, Jewish, American elitist.”

Bannon’s appointment sends a highly negative signal to all those Americans who did not support Trump for president but have been willing to give him the benefit of the doubt in deference to the legitimacy of his election. That is to say, his response to the impulse toward unity of the disappointed half of the United States has been to rub their noses in defeat by elevating a figure they understandably consider threatening.

Bannon may find himself unwelcome even in what remains of Republican establishment circles, given his extreme ideology and past attempts to foment GOP rebellions in the House of Representatives against Speaker Paul Ryan and his predecessor, John Boehner. Republican leaders have welcomed the appointment of Priebus on the assumption he can steer Trump toward mainstream policies and help restrain Bannon. Perhaps he will.

On the other hand, neither Priebus nor most leading Republicans have proved able to check Trump’s worst impulses, to the extent they have been interested in doing so; over the past year, Priebus seemed more interested in playing an enabling, apologetic role for Trump. Greater strength than that will be needed to resist the forces of intolerance whose representatives are now moving into the White House.

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.

Cabinet front runners show election about public lands

To the Editor: The Department of the Interior oversees and manages national parks and monuments, wilderness areas and other scenic lands. Politico reports Donald Trump’s current front-runner for Secretary of the Interior is Forrest Lucas, co-founder of Lucas Oil. So under Trump, we’ll have an oil baron overseeing and managing our public lands. His front-runner for managing the EPA is global warming denier Myron Ebell. For energy secretary, Harold Hamm of Continental Resources, which brags about being America’s Oil Champion.

The election was about accessing public lands for people like Lucas and Hamm. It was in 1980 and 2000. Voters didn’t realize how much then, and didn’t this time. Now we see the proof.

Meanwhile, Trump and Republicans will eliminate the estate tax and lower the top tax rate for the wealthy and the corporate tax rate. Anyone think they’ll use their savings to create jobs or improve salaries and benefits for Trump voters or others? It will blow up the national debt.

The “Wise Use Agenda” calls for selling off public lands to pay down the national debt. That includes selling national parks to someone like Disney.

And with Trump, the wealthy will have

VIEWS Scott Reeder It is strange being the oldest man at the dinner table.

Somehow, I feel unqualified to be a patriarch. And I just can’t wrap my mind around that.

I’ll miss Dad’s strong opinions and quiet prayers at the Thanksgiving table.

His final two years were lonely for him.

We lost my mother – his wife of nearly 60 years – to breast cancer in 2013.

And we miss her, too.

But, oddly enough, it was Thanksgiving and cancer that opened a door in my life I never expected.

Back in 2001, my mother was sched-

I was afraid. A bit lost. I didn’t want to be without her.

And I didn’t feel like I had much to be thankful for.

A friend seeing I was down in the dumps set me up on a blind date – three days before Thanksgiving.

I didn’t know what to expect, but life was raw back then. We arranged to meet at a local restaurant – Chili’s. I wasn’t trying to impress.

The woman, who had just graduated from veterinary school, had kind brown eyes and an easy smile.

Her Mom was fighting breast cancer, too.

The conversation didn’t revolve around the usual first date superficial small talk.

We talked about what is really important: family.

Five hours later, the restaurant

manager asked us to leave – it was closing time.

Five weeks later, we were engaged to be married.

We now have three daughters.

Sometimes love sneaks up on you.

It was the last thing I expected.

When I look at the empty chair at the head of the dinner table this Thanksgiving, I will think of my Dad. And I’ll remember my brother and think of my mother.

But then I will look at the beautiful faces of my wife and three daughters, and I’ll remember what I learned that Thanksgiving when love surprised me: There is always something to be thankful for.

Protests of elected officials take away democracy

To the Editor: It is our right to express our opinions, but when it turns into protests against an elected person, it seems to take away our democracy. I am tired of people protesting against our police and people trying to do their job making us safe and changing the status quo, such as our new president-elect. Give someone a chance before you think you should walk on the streets to create havoc, and instead bring our country together as it was meant to be.

To recover, employ laughter, liquor and chocolate To the Editor:

Now that the presidential election is over, the negative political radio commercials have been shipped to frontline allied troops in Iraq and Afghanistan and will be blasted over loudspeakers to flush out terrorists lurking in surrounded villages. The video commercials about Mike Madigan, Bruce Rauner and other state politicians will be used to soften up ISIS prisoners.

A big issue that must be dealt with is how to help half of this country’s voters who did not elect Mr. Donald Trump. Under these trying circumstances, the best solution may be the comfort trifecta of laughter, liquor and chocolate.

Regarding laughter, Norman Cousins (the American political journalist) in his famous 1979 book, “Anatomy of an Illness,” outlined the healing and pain-relieving effects of heavy guffaws on his “unidentified, crippling illness.”

A good part of his recovery was aided by watching episodes of the “Candid Camera” TV show and Marx Brothers movies.

Can laughter help “the other half” recover from the psychological shock of this election? The contemporary comedy of Alec Baldwin as Mr. Trump on “Saturday Night Live,” Trevor Noah on Comedy Central’s “Daily Show,” and other humor venues may be the antidote. Mark Twain said, “Against the assault of laughter, nothing can stand.”

Regarding liquor and chocolate, well, they’ve been around for centuries, and their powers are self-evident.

The challenge over the next four years with these three remedies is to use liquor and chocolate moderately and laughter liberally.

SPRINGFIELD – As Thanksgiving approaches, like many folks, I find myself missing family members who have died and wondering what there is to be thankful for.

I remember munching crescent rolls with my brother, Danny, at the Thanksgiving dinner table and later arguing about politics. He died 11 years ago at age 48. But what I wouldn’t give to discuss this year’s election with him.

And I’m sure this year, as I did last, I will look to the head of the table and think of my father. He died unexpectedly in August 2015.

For 50 consecutive Thanksgivings, I watched him carve the turkey and grumble about eating a “dead bird” when the freezer was full of perfectly good ham.

We were hog farmers, after all.

And my mother would gently chide him by saying “Now, Don …”

Thanksgiving is about family.

After election rupture, CEOs seek unity for staff, customers

By KEN SWEET

The Associated Press NEW YORK – Apple CEO Tim Cook is telling his employees to “keep moving forward.” Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is saying “progress does not move in a straight line.” T-Mobile’s CEO John Legere tweeted “let’s see what an out of the box, non-typical, non-politician can do for America!”

CEOs of major companies are taking stands about the results of the election – a departure from the traditional model of not mixing politics with business that major brands have long espoused.

Some are using it as an opportunity to bring their employees together after a divisive election campaign. Others are using it as an opportunity to stress their companies’ values and mission, or an opportunity to make nice with Trump, who many CEOs were publicly against during the campaign.

The men and women who head the nation’s biggest companies know that having a hostile relationship with the Trump administration could make doing business difficult. They also know that they operate in liberal bastions such as New York and San Francisco just as much as in Trump-leaning places such as Fort Wayne, Indiana, or Charleston, West Virginia.

“Neutral is the best policy,” said John Challenger, CEO of workplace consultant Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

T-Mobile’s Legere, who long was vocally opposed to Trump, congratulated the president-elect on Twitter for his victory last week, while holding off on

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg speaks during the keynote address April 12 at the F8 Facebook Developer Conference in San Francisco. CEOs of major companies are taking stands about the results of the November 2016 U.S. election, a departure from the traditional model of not mixing politics with business that the major brands have long espoused. Zuckerberg said, “Progress does not move in a straight line.” judging the president-elect’s policies.

Meanwhile another telecommunications executive, Sprint CEO Marcelo Claure, himself an immigrant and personally opposed to Trump, sent an email to employees saying that “it’s our obligation to accept the will of our fellow Americans and respect the new leader.”

It’s possible that Legere and Claure made nice because the president appoints the chairman and commissioners of the Federal Communications Commission, an agency that holds enor-

mous influence over the telecommunications industry. All five FCC commissioners will see their terms expire during Trump’s first term.

Many CEOs publicly expressed hope that the tensions dividing the country will diminish, and that American consumers will set aside their fears and get back to what they do best: shop.

“We are hoping that in the postelection we are just going to see people ready to spend,” said Marvin Ellison, CEO of JCPenney.

CEOs and companies that try to bring

people together are “going to be the winners,” said Dr. Larry Chiagouris, a marketing professor at Pace University’s Lubin School of Business. “That always works better from a brand perspective,” he said.

Trump’s victory drew a range of responses from CEOs in Silicon Valley, where popular sentiment had tilted strongly against Trump because of his statements on immigrants, women, overseas manufacturing and the use of encryption in consumer products such as Apple’s iPhones.

In a postelection email to employees, Apple CEO Cook didn’t mention Trump by name but acknowledged that many people had strong feelings about the outcome of the vote. Cook had let it be known during the campaign that he didn’t support Trump, although he generally avoided taking a public stance on the candidates. In his email, Cook said Apple would continue to support diversity.

Cook didn’t mention encryption, which he has previously argued is essential to protect consumers’ privacy.

But he added, “While there is discussion today about uncertainties ahead, you can be confident that Apple’s North Star hasn’t changed.”

Facebook’s Zuckerberg, who had previously criticized Trump’s call for building a wall on the Mexican border, sounded subdued in a post on his own social network.

“I thought about all the work ahead of us to create the world we want for our children,” he wrote. “This work is bigger than any presidency and progress does not move in a straight line.”

NEW YORK – Former WWE champ Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson can add People’s “Sexiest Man Alive” title to his list of accomplishments.

The wrestler-turned-actor was crowned this year’s winner Tuesday morning. The 44-year-old told the magazine that the honor means he has “pretty much reached the pinnacle.” Johnson is set to discuss his new status with Ellen DeGeneres on her talk show Tuesday.

Last year’s winner was British soccer standout David Beckham. Other recent winners include Chris Hemsworth, Adam Levine and Channing Tatum.

Bounce TV to bring back ‘Cosby Show’ reruns

Rashida Jones arrives at the Glamour Women of the Year Awards on Monday at NeueHouse Hollywood in Los Angeles.

Election mourning, empowerment at Women of the Year event LOS ANGELES – Glamour magazine closed its 26th annual celebration of trailblazing women with a star-studded tribute to Hillary Clinton.

Lena Dunham, Shonda Rhimes, Elizabeth Banks, Chelsea Handler, Ted Danson and Constance Wu were among the entertainers who paid homage to the Democratic presidential candidate at Glamour’s Women of the Year Awards on Monday in Los Angeles. They listed Clinton’s achievements and thanked her for her leadership as a guitarist played a somber tune.

“We thank you for your composure, your compassion and your grace,” Banks said, “and for always looking so darn fierce in those freaking pantsuits.”

Though Clinton wasn’t in the audience, she was a presence throughout the two-hour ceremony as presenters and recipients lamented her loss to Donald Trump in last week’s election.

Despite disappointment in Clinton’s failure to become the country’s first female president, the tone was of empowerment and determined resolve as the magazine recognized women for achievements in art, activism, sports and business. Bono also received its first Man of the Year award.

Survivors of violence were also among the honorees Monday. Rashida Jones introduced 23-year-old Nadia Murad, who was saluted for her bravery and efforts to take ISIS to international criminal court. The extremist group murdered her parents and made Murad a sex slave, but she escaped and is fighting for justice.

“No matter what sorrow, sadness and frustration we feel, we just have to continue that fight,” she said. “What I hope is that all the young girls, all those yet to be born, will actually be empowered to be leaders: to be leaders in finance, to be leaders in politics, to be leaders in anything that they choose to accomplish, and will be free and will not be the victim of any discrimination. That is really worth your time and your energy, and all of mine.”

ATLANTA – Reruns of “The Cosby Show” are returning to television, even as the comedian’s sexual assault trial looms next year.

Bounce TV announced in social media posts that it will resume airing reruns of the 1980s sitcom on Dec. 19. Atlanta-based Bounce, programmed for black audiences, said it takes the allegations against Cosby “seriously,” but said its research shows blacks “see a distinction between Bill Cosby, the man, and the iconic TV character Cliff Huxtable.”

The announcement has drawn criticism from some, including Judd Apatow. The director and producer tweeted Tuesday, “Presenting a violent rapist to viewers like he is a lovable dad is inappropriate.”

In July 2015, Bounce pulled reruns of the comedian’s CBS sitcom “Cosby.” Other networks – including TV Land and Centric – dropped “The Cosby Show” after the sexual assault allegations began in 2014.

The 79-year-old Cosby has pleaded not guilty to the sexual assault charge in Pennsylvania, where he is scheduled to go on trial by June. He has also denied some of the allegations of unwanted sexual contact from dozens of other women.

New exhibition celebrates the style of Princess Diana

LONDON – Kensington Palace says a new exhibition tracing the evolution of the late Princess Diana’s style is set to open in February.

The palace said Tuesday that the exhibition, “Diana: Her Fashion Story,” will follow from the ruffled blouses in her first appear-

ances to her later life. It’s the first palace exhibition in a decade to focus solely on the princess.

Included are celebrated outfits, including evening gowns worn on engagements in the 1980s and Catherine Walker suits of her “working wardrobe” in the 1990s. It also will include Victor Edelstein’s ink blue velvet gown, which Diana wore as she danced with John Travolta at the White House in 1985.

Curator Eleri Lynn said every fashion choice Diana made was scrutinized, and the exhibition shows how she quickly learned the rules.

Latin Recording Academy to honor Marc Anthony

NEW YORK – Marc Anthony will be honored Wednesday night as the Latin Recording Academy’s Person of the Year. But when the salsa superstar began his career more than 20 years ago, many doubted that he would be successful.

“My career at the beginning wasn’t easy, because I didn’t look or sound like the ‘typical salsero.’ My sound wasn’t considered usual by the purists,” Anthony, 48, recalled in Spanish in a recent email interview with The Associated Press. “But all things considered, I had a lot of faith that I had found my voice in that genre the moment (producer) Sergio (George) and I started collaborating in my first album” – 1993’s “Otra nota.”

Friends and colleagues including Victor Manuelle, Laura Pausini, Prince Royce, Gilberto Santa Rosa, Fonseca and Carlos Vives will take the stage at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas to celebrate Anthony’s career, singing the salsero’s hits.

‘Death with dignity’

New wave of laws about more than just easing end-of-life pain

By LIZ SZABO

Kaiser Health News Supporters of “death with dignity” have succeeded in legalizing what also is known as physician-aid-in-dying in six states, most recently in Colorado last week, by convincing voters, lawmakers and courts that terminally ill patients have the right to die without suffering intractable pain in their final days or weeks.

When Gov. Jerry Brown (D) signed California’s law in 2015, he said, “I do not know what I would do if I were dying in prolonged and excruciating pain,” and that it would be a “comfort to consider the options afforded by this bill.”

Yet the latest research shows terminally ill patients who seek aid in dying aren’t primarily concerned about pain.

Those who actually have used these laws have been far more concerned about controlling the way they exit the world than about controlling pain.

The research suggests patients’ motivations are more complicated than they’re often portrayed and could affect how people vote on the issue in other cities and states.

“It’s almost never about pain,” said Lonny Shavelson, a Berkeley, California, physician who specializes in the care of the terminally ill and who began writing prescriptions for lethal doses of medication in June, when California’s law took effect. “It’s about dignity and control.”

Pain ranks near the bottom of a list of patients’ concerns in the first two states to legalize physician-assisted dying, Oregon and Washington, which provide the most complete details about people’s motivations.

Only 25 percent of the 991 Oregon patients who died after taking lethal prescriptions from 1998 to 2015 were concerned about pain or had inadequate pain control, according to reports filed with the state by their doctors. In Washington, 36 percent of 917 who died were concerned about pain, records show.

In contrast, at least 90 percent of patients in both states were motivated by a loss of autonomy, state records show.

Forty-one percent of patients in Oregon and 53 percent in Washington said they feared burdening the people they loved.

Montana, Vermont and California also permit physician-aid-in-dying, but they

•••••• Compassion & Choices, an advocacy group, focuses heavily on the need to relieve dying patients of pain. One of the group’s new ads promotes the Washington, D.C.’s proposed Death With Dignity Act as giving “a dying person the option to avoid the worst pain and suffering at the end of life.”

Dan Diaz, the widower of Brittany Maynard, a 29-year-old California woman who became the best-known advocate for the right to die, has spoken publicly in support of the legislation.

Maynard, who had an aggressive brain tumor, moved to Oregon in 2014 to use that state’s aid-in-dying law. She died that year after using a lethal prescription.

“The dying process is what Brittany feared,” Diaz said. “She was afraid that her final few days on this green Earth would be ones where she was tortured by the tumor.”

Mary Klein, a 68-year-old Washington, D.C., resident who is fighting advanced ovarian cancer, said she wants

choices at the end of her life.

“I want to have the option to control my own body and control my own life,” said Klein, a retired journalist and artist who appears in a video created

by Compassion & Choices.

Although Klein says she also may enroll in hospice care, which focuses on the needs of people with six months or less to live, she wants to have an alternative if the services don’t meet her needs.

“The dominant reasons for wanting euthanasia or assisted suicide are psychological and involve control factors,” said Ezekiel Emanuel, chairman of medical ethics and health policy at the University of Pennsylvania’s medical school. He noted most of those who have used aid-in-dying laws are white, well insured and college-educated.

“These are people who are used to controlling every aspect of their lives, and they want to control this aspect of their lives.”

A study of 56 Oregon patients interested in physician-aid-in-dying reached similar conclusions. Although patients

were concerned about the risk of future pain, they ranked “current pain” as unimportant, according to the 2009 study in the Archives of Internal Medicine (now known as JAMA Internal Medicine). Patients told researchers they primarily were motivated by a desire to “control the circumstances of death and die at home,” as well as by loss of independence, poor quality of life and an inability to care for themselves.

The patients interviewed look ahead “to this period in their terminal illness, this time in which they will be not in control, when they will be dependent on others, when they will have a bunch of physical symptoms that will undermine their quality of life, and they want to avoid that,” said Linda Ganzini, a professor of psychiatry and medicine at Oregon Health & Science University.

•••••• Barbara Coombs Lee, president of Compassion & Choices, said it’s difficult for people to predict how they will feel as they face a deadly illness. While a healthy person might not imagine being able to tolerate physical disability, people facing the prospect of an early death often are willing to accept harsh treatments or a reduced quality of life in exchange for more time.

That change in perspective could help explain why some of those who advocate for the right to die, including those who obtain lethal prescriptions, never actually choose to hasten their death, Lee said. But she said having the prescription on hand can ease patients’ anxiety and give them peace of mind, because they can control the timing and method of death.

Lee also notes people can suffer in many ways beyond physical pain. Maynard’s brain tumor caused her to suffer frequent seizures, for example. Lee also described the case of a dying woman who took a lethal prescription after she began leaking fecal matter, which prevented her from ever feeling clean.

Lee said: “Everyone who is terminally ill has some kind of nightmare that would be worse than death to them. They want to achieve sufficient control to avoid that nightmare for their family.”

Young brains & anesthesia: Study suggests minimal risks

By LINDSEY TANNER The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Anesthesia during early childhood surgery poses little risk for intelligence and academics later on, the largest study of its kind suggests.

The results were found in research on nearly 200,000 Swedish teens. School grades were only marginally lower in kids who’d had one or more common surgeries with anesthesia before age 4, compared with those who’d had no anesthesia during those early years.

Whether the results apply to sicker children who have riskier surgeries with anesthesia is not known.

But the researchers from Sweden’s Karolinska Institute and doctors elsewhere called the new results reassuring, given experiments in young animals linking anesthesia drugs with brain damage.

Previous studies of children have been relatively small, with conflict-

ing results. The new findings, published Monday in JAMA Pediatrics, don’t provide a definitive answer and other research is ongoing.

The study authors and other doctors say the harms from postponing surgery must be considered when evaluating any potential risks from anesthesia in young children.

The most common procedures in the study were hernia repairs; ear, nose or throat surgeries; and abdominal operations. The researchers say the operations likely lasted an hour or less. The study did not include children with other serious health problems and those who had more complex or risky operations, including brain, heart and cancer surgeries.

The research involved about 33,500 teens who’d had surgery before age 4 and nearly 160,000 who did not.

School grades at age 16 were less than half a percent lower on average in teens who’d had one childhood surgery with anesthesia versus the

no-surgery group. Average grades were less than 2 percent lower among teens who’d had two or more surgeries with anesthesia.

The researchers also looked at IQ tests given to Swedish boys at age 18 upon joining the military. Scores were about the same for those with one early surgery and the non-surgery group; scores were less than 3 percent lower in boys with three or more early surgeries.

The researchers, led by Karolinska’s Dr. Pia Glatz, noted factors other than anesthesia appeared to have a much greater impact on academics and intelligence measures, including mothers’ education level.

A journal editorial says the results mean it is unlikely early anesthesia poses a long-term risk. The study is “reassuring for children, parents and caregivers and puts the issue of anesthetic-related neurotoxicity and the developing brain into perspective,” the editorial says.

Dissolvable stents relieve coronary heart disease SPONSORED BY

By Diane Krieger Spivak Until recently, all coronary artery stents were made of metal and remained in the body forever after they were implanted.

“Recently developed, dissolvable stents are made of a material that provides a temporary structure for the arteries that is absorbed over the next two to three years after implant, leaving the artery in its natural state,” said Douglas Tomasian, MD Director of Cardiology at Centegra Health System.

“Dissolvable stents offer an excellent treatment option for patients. They can open blocked arteries without leaving any metallic implant behind over time.”

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the first fully absorbable stent to SM-CL0408952

treat coronary artery disease in July. The stent is manufactured from a biodegradable coating, which is similar to materials used in other types of absorbable medical devices, such as dissolvable stitches. The device’s absorption by the body gradually eliminates the presence of foreign material in the artery once the stent is no longer needed.

Coronary heart disease is responsible for about 370,000 deaths each year in the U.S., according to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. The condition develops when cholesterol-containing deposits build up and narrow the coronary arteries, decreasing blood flow to the heart.

This can cause chest pain (angina), shortness of breath, fatigue or other heart disease symptoms.

A hepatitis C treatment and a form of insulin led Medicare drug spending, adding up to more than $11 billion in 2015, according to an update of a federal database that highlights the drugs the government spent the most money on overall and per person – and which ones had the biggest price increases.

Of particular concern is a rise in price of some generics, a class of drugs that are intended to decrease drug prices and spending. Drugs that were responsible for large amounts of overall spending tended to see smaller increases that gradually increased the government outlay. In one outlier, the price of the hepatitis C treatment Harvoni decreased slightly in 2015, even as it led overall spending.

In total, Medicare paid $137.4 billion on drugs covered by its prescription drug benefit in 2015, according to the data. About $8.7 billion of that spending occurred on drugs that had “large” price hikes, defined as a more than 25 percent increase between 2014 and 2015. In 2015, Medicaid paid $57.3 billion – about $5.1 billion of which was spent on drugs that had large price increases.

30 Artificial sweeteners may not decrease calories Note to readers: This column originally ran in November 2014.

Dear Dr. K: For 20 years, I’ve substituted

artificial sweeteners for sugar in my coffee, and switched to diet soft drinks to avoid obesity and the diseases overweight people are prone to, like Type 2 diabetes. Now I hear new research says that’s a bad idea.

What is going on?

Dear Reader: Here’s what’s not confusing: More than a modest amount of sugar each day is not good for you. Nothing’s changed there. The sweet tooth many of us have (I plead guilty) leads us to eat too much sugar.

Sugar contains easily absorbed calories. That makes it harder to maintain or achieve a healthy weight. It also increases our risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, the most common form of diabetes. Sugar-sweetened soft drinks and fruit juices are particularly bad actors.

The development of no-calorie artificial sweeteners, such as saccharine, sucralose and aspartame, seemed like a godsend.

Like you, I switched from regular drinks to “diet” drinks a long time ago. Artificial sweeteners taste as sweet as (or sweeter than) sugar, but contain virtually no calories. What’s not to like?

In previous columns, I’ve said there was some evidence consuming artificial sweeteners might increase our appetite for sugar-containing sweets. That definitely is not a good thing, if true. I still regard it as unproven.

But a scientific study published in the prestigious scientific journal Nature set me back on my heels. If other scientists confirm this work, it has important implications for all of us. To tell you what the study showed, I first need to explain a little biology.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff Many foods contain carbohydrates (“carbs”). Carbohydrates resemble a chain with multiple links. When they enter our gut, the links in the chain are separated by digestion. Table sugar is a simple chain: just two links, easily separated. It’s the single links that mainly are absorbed into our blood. The most common is called glucose.

When your doctor measures your blood sugar, glucose is what is being measured.

Any food, say a slice of an orange, contains calories. But those calories add to our weight, and influence whether we might develop diabetes, only if they are efficiently broken down into single links – glucose – and then are absorbed into our body.

Our intestines contain trillions of bacteria of different types. Some types are very good at breaking up carbohydrates into glucose; other types are not. If you’re a person with lots of the first type of bacteria living inside you, every slice of orange you eat will lead to more calories getting into your blood.

The recent study presents evidence indicating artificial sweeteners may encourage the growth of the types of bacteria that generate more glucose – and, hence, lead us to absorb more calories. In other words, while the sweeteners don’t contain calories, they may cause us to absorb more calories.

If other scientific studies confirm these findings, I will be further lowering my modest consumption of artificial sweeteners.

• Dr. Komaroff is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School.

of mail I receive, letter composition is something many people struggle with. I publish a booklet called “How to Write Letters for All Occasions,” and among the topics it covers are how to address a senator, member of Congress, clergyperson, etc. It can be ordered by sending your name and mailing address, plus check or money order for $7 (U.S. funds), to Dear Abby Letters Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. Shipping and handling are included in the price. My letters booklet also contains helpful suggestions for writing letters of congratulations, and letters about difficult subjects to address, such as letters of condolence for the loss of a parent, spouse or child, as well as warm thank-you notes for birthday, shower, wedding and holiday gifts.

Dear Abby: My boyfriend and I have been together for four years. I love him deeply, but I have lied to him about certain things. I feel guilty about it, but I can’t bring myself to tell him the truth because he has a temper.

One lie I told was I was laid off from my previous job, but I really quit. He didn’t want me quitting, but I did it for my own good. I was having a nervous breakdown, and all I felt were negative thoughts when I worked there. Although I found a better job months later, I never summoned up the courage to tell him the truth.

We don’t live together. I’m 24 and he’s 26.

Do you think this lack of communication is a reason to break up, or am I being too sensitive about his temper? He doesn’t abuse me, but he won’t talk to me if he doesn’t have things his way. – Unsure In The West Dear Unsure: I’m glad you’re not living together because if you were, your problem would have serious ramifications. Your boyfriend might not be physically abusive, but he is controlling. Subjecting you to the silent treatment is emotionally abusive, and so was deciding “for” you that you should remain at a job that’s stressful and unpleasant.

You may love this man deeply, but from my perspective the relationship isn’t a healthy one.

If you want to end it, you are justified.

a freshman in college, blessed to have an internship in the office of a nonprofit organization. As time goes by, I am being given more responsibilities. One of them is writing letters for various purposes – thank-you letters, invitations, congratulatory letters, etc.

When I was in high school, I never was taught the format for how to write these kinds of letters. I get confused about spacing and how to address people with titles. It’s a shame technology has left my generation so clueless on how to do important stuff. Is there a resource for letter writing available from you?

akantecki@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Prairie Ridge held down Cary-Grove junior Katie Sowa in the first half of Tuesday’s Fox Valley Conference girls basketball opener for the most part, but the Wolves weren’t able to keep her in check in the second.

The 6-foot Sowa erupted for 17 of her game-high 25 points after halftime, including 12 in the fourth quarter, as the Trojans overcame a four-point deficit at the break to beat Prairie Ridge, 5950.

“Sowa was just incredible at the end,” Wolves coach Rick Lima said.

“She just took the game over in that fourth quarter. She was flying all over the place, getting great postups, hitting her shots. That’s what it came down to.

Great leadership.”

Offensively and defensively, Sowa, who added a pair of steals and one blocked shot, was a nuisance to the Wolves.

Sowa made all but one her five shots in the final eight minutes, going 7 of 8 from the free-throw line in the game, and providing the Trojans (1-0) with an inside threat that the Wolves (0-2) had no answer for.

“I was just told to score, so I just had go out and to do it for my team,” said Sowa, who finished 9 of 16 from the field and grabbed 10 rebounds. “My teammates got me the ball, I was able to get the ball back out to them for some 3s. We were really clutch in the third and fourth quarters.”

Prairie Ridge carried a three-point lead into the fourth quarter, but the Trojans went on a 13-4 run to start.

Already without 6-foot 3 sophomore center Sammi Lockwood (shoulder/back), who is committed to play volleyball at Notre Dame, Prairie Ridge is playing without sophomore guard Karly Statter, who injured her ankle in the opening minutes of Monday’s season opener against Harlem. She was scheduled to see a doctor Wednesday morning.

Continued from page 2 Sowa put the Trojans up 44-43 on a putback after a missed free throw, and Maddie Gorz drained a 3-pointer to give them a 47-43 lead.

Sowa later hit two free throws to give C-G a 53-47 lead and had back-toback post-up moves inside to push the lead to 10 points. The Trojans outscored Prairie Ridge, 21-9, in the fourth.

“The fourth quarter, our coaches were really encouraging us to pick up the defense,” said Gorz, who had five points and five rebounds. “We weren’t getting down on ourselves, and just kind of staying positive and I think that really helped us.”

For a while, it looked as if Prairie Ridge sophomore Maddy Ljunggren would carry the Wolves to victory with seven 3-pointers and a team-high 23 points.

Ljunggren hit her sixth 3 with 30 seconds left in the third quarter to give Prairie Ridge a 41-34 lead, but the Trojans were able to two add two quick buckets before the quarter ended.

“The first half we struggled,” C-G coach Rod Saffert said. “No. 13 (Ljunggren) had seven 3s for them, and we just weren’t communicating on defense. We weren’t switching some of the screens, so people were getting wide open, especially [Ljunggren].

back it seemed like we had those firstgame frights,” Gators coach Mark Mucha said. “We were a little bit rusty and our experience, today, at least early on, didn’t show, getting into that 8-0 hole.

What I’m proud of those kids, in the second half we did make a run there. We made it within a couple and the gas tank just kind of emptied out and we just didn’t have enough.

“Give credit to McHenry though, they’re a tough team, their physical presence underneath was great with all their offensive rebounds, getting it in, and they beat us up down there for sure.”

After halftime, the other half of McHenry’s frontcourt took over. Alsot dominated the second half, finishing with a game-high 19 points.

Madi Keampf added nine points, Julia Rice had six and Izzy Gscheidle hit a 3-pointer.

“We have a lot of momentum now, so it feels great,” Alsot said.

Jozefowicz led South with 13 points, including three 3-pointers. Annika Sevcik added eight while Kelly Gaede and Allie David each chipped in seven points.

Hawks’ point streak snapped at 11

By MARK LAZERUS

JETS 4, BLACKHAWKS 0

mlazerus@suntimes.com WINNIPEG, Manitoba – For a team that hadn’t lost in regulation in 11 games, the Blackhawks have been answering a lot of questions about how they’re not really playing all that well, how they’re leaning too heavily on Corey Crawford, how they’re escaping with timely third-period goals.

Patrick Kane hoped that Sunday’s win over the league-leading Montreal Canadiens would answer those questions once and for all.

“You look at that Montreal game, I thought we played really well in that game,” he said Tuesday morning. “That was probably our best game of the season. It was 3-2, but we had plenty of chances to make it 4-2, even 5-2 in the third period. We played the way we wanted to in that game, and that’s kind of a good trend going forward. Keep trying to get better.”

Instead, the Hawks fell back into bad habits – sluggish skating, sloppy passing, squandered opportunities. And for once, they paid the price for it.

Ex-Hawk Dano holds no grudges

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com WINNIPEG, Manitoba – Marko Dano doesn’t feel like the Blackhawks gave up on him. Or the Columbus Blue Jackets.

“I don’t know if they traded me because I was a bad player,” Dano said.

“I feel they got good players in the trades for me.”

Columbus received Brandon Saad in the trade that sent Dano to Chicago. And the Hawks received Andrew Ladd for the stretch run in the trade that sent Dano to his current team, the Winnipeg Jets. And although he harbors no ill will toward his old team, Dano still was looking forward to Tuesday night’s matchup with the Hawks – especially now that his old Rockford teammates Ryan Hartman and Vinnie Hinostroza have cracked the lineup.

“Maybe a little extra motivation to play against old teammates,” said Dano, who twice played the Hawks after the trade deadline last spring.

“There’s a lot of chirping against each other. I know those guys. I was living with [Hartman] in Rockford, so

it’s going to be a fun game.”

Dano said he doesn’t try to think how things might have been different had the Hawks held on to him.

With so many young guys on the roster this season, Dano surely would have been in the mix for a regular spot in the lineup. Instead, he started the season in the minor Marko Dano leagues before a couple of injuries forced the Jets to call him back up. In seven games, he has three goals and an assist, and spent the past two games on the top line with the league’s leading point-scorer, Mark Scheifele, and the league’s leading goal-scorer, rookie Patrik Laine.

“I don’t want to talk about [what might have been],” Dano said. “I’m here and trying to do my best here, and I’m not thinking what could be if I would be in Chicago. That’s in the past. I had a good time there, and now I’ve just got to move on. … This is the last year of my contract. I’m trying to do my best now, and we’ll see how it goes at the end of the season.”

Circus leaves town: As much of a burden as the circus trip seems, it’s been good to the Hawks, who are 143-2 in the past three, and 25-9-3 since 2009. But nobody seemed too upset to hear that this will be the final circus trip, as the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus will not return to the United Center.

“I guess that’s nice for us that we don’t have to go on a long trip,” Patrick Kane said. “It’s always been a good trip for us. We’ve done well on the ice, and it seems like we’ve come together off the ice on these trips.

When you say it’s the last one, it’s kind of sad, but at the same time, sometimes being away from home for 14, 15 days kind of wears on you.

I guess we’ll enjoy the last one while it’s here.”

Injury report: N i c k S c h m a l t z crashed hard into the boards during Tuesday’s morning skate and left the ice in obvious pain but still played in the game.

Coach Joel Quenneville said Tyler Motte (lower-body injury) and Trevor van Riemsdyk (upper body) “potentially” could rejoin the team at some point on the trip.

by Josh Morrissey late in the first period – the hit looked clean, if dangerous, but Hinostroza’s head hit the boards on the way down. With Ryan Hartman scratched in favor of Jordin Tootoo, that left the Hawks hurting for offense up front. Nick Schmaltz took Hinostroza’s spot on the top line and had a couple of strong shifts, but the Hawks rarely threatened Hellebuyck.

Winnipeg had only 13 shots in the first two periods, but led 1-0 on Morrissey’s first NHL goal at 6:26 of the first period. Crawford got a piece of Morrissey’s one-timer of a loose puck in the slot, but not enough of it.

The Jets gave the Hawks every opportunity to tie it, including a 67-second 5-on-3 power play early in the second period.

Things then fell apart quickly in the third period. Chris Thorburn made it 2-0 at 4:41 when he surprised Crawford with a turnaround slap shot from the half-boards. Then rookie Patrik Laine – the No. 2 overall pick in June – scored his league-leading 12th goal at 11:17, following up a Dustin Byfuglien rebound. Eleven seconds later, Nic Petan scored off a nice Marko Dano feed to make it 4-0 and send Crawford to an early exit for the first time this season. He finished with 18 saves on 22 shots.

6 BULLS 113, TRAIL BLAZERS 88

Butler’s double-double leads rout

By ANNE M. PETERSON

BULLS 113, TRAIL BLAZERS 88

The Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. – Jimmy Butler had 27 points and 12 rebounds, and the Bulls opened a six-game road trip with a 113-88 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday night.

Dwyane Wade had 19 points for the Bulls, who extended their modest winning streak to three games. Former Blazers center Robin Lopez added 13 points and 11 rebounds.

The Blazers, who had won five of six, were cold from the start, falling behind by as many as 26 points. Damian Lillard, who made just two shots from the field in the first half, finished with 19 points.

The Bulls, coming off a 106-95 victory over Washington on Saturday, were without Rajon Rondo because of a left ankle sprain. Jerian Grant made his first start of the season and had 18 points.

Rondo, who joined the Bulls as a free agent in the offseason, is averaging 7.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 6.5 assists.

The Blazers played their third straight game without starting forward Al-Farouq Aminu, who has a sore left calf and is expected to be re-evaluated next week. Meyers Leonard has been inserted into the lineup in his absence, but he struggled and played 15 minutes with no points.

The Bulls built a 20-7 lead to open the game as Portland struggled, hitting only two of 13 shots from the field. The

BULLS NOTES

Hoiberg discusses McDermott’s concussion, old days

By JOE COWLEY

jcowley@suntimes.com PORTLAND – Fred Hoiberg is no Larry Bird.

Doug McDermott might be thankful for that.

With McDermott back in Chicago for at least the start of the “circus trip” in dealing with a second concussion in the past two weeks, Hoiberg talked about the changes in how that injury is being handled today compared to when he played.

“Well, I remember I had a couple of them,” the Bulls’ coach said Tuesday. “I had one in Indiana, and I think I missed about five, six, seven games. When you get hit, it’s hard to describe the feeling that you have. You’re just completely out of it. I don’t remember two days from what I remember, and then [then-Pacers coach] Larry Bird said, ‘Are you ever go-

ing to play again?’ So I suited up the next game and played. It was a little different rules back then.”

And a much different protocol.

“Yeah, that was the protocol, when your coach said, ‘Are you ever going to play again?’ ” Hoiberg said with a laugh. “So yeah, Fred Hoiberg again, the rules are in place, and it’s a good rule to have, obviously, with all the things that have happened with concussions all across the board in all sports. So, again, we’ll continue to monitor Doug, and we’ll get him back when he’s feeling right.”

The game against Portland was the second McDermott missed because of a concussion, and after meeting with team doctors back home Tuesday afternoon, he still was feeling out of it.

Although Hoiberg wasn’t going to speculate on just how much of this road trip he could miss, he did admit that it is concerning.

“Sure, it’s obviously a concern for everybody when you have two like he did,” Hoiberg said. “As far as what happens from there, I’m not a doctor, I can’t say exactly what it means as far as when you have two this close together. He obviously bounced back very quickly from that first one, so I would say that the first one was diagnosed as a very mild concussion.

“This one he took a heck of a fall.

When you bounce your head off the floor when you’re up as high as he was, you know there’s concern. We’ll obviously be careful, we’ll follow the rules to the letter, and get him back when he’s able.”

McDermott was averaging 10.6 points off the bench.

Another man down: Rajon Rondo

missed the game against the Trail Blazers, dealing with a sprained left ankle he suffered in practice Monday, and wasn’t responding well throughout the afternoon Tuesday.

Jerian Grant started in Rondo’s place, and Hoiberg called the injury to the veteran “day-to-day.”

Santa Dwyane: One of the best ways to build team chemistry, according to Dwyane Wade? Simple. ’Tis the season all season.

“I know if I give gifts to people, that helps right away,” Wade said of his first few months with his new Bulls teammates. “I came in gifting right away. I gave guys a lot of stuff. They all got custom slides I gave them. Everyone got underwear from my line. Everyone got wine, Wade wine. Just a lot of different stuff you try to do for guys and make them look at you, especially me coming here, as just one of the guys.”

doing what we need to do as a group. ...

It just gives us extra motivation. But it’s still sad, though, to see that people at the top always want to try to put guys in power down.”

James was offended

by Jackson’s flippant use of a term many find degrading.

“If you go and read the definition of what the word ‘posse’ is, it’s not what I’ve built over Phil Jackson my career,” James said.

“It’s not what I stand for. It’s not what my family stands for.”

Cavs coach Tyronn Lue played for Jackson and said he doesn’t recall him ever being racially insensitive. Lue also has no intention of brokering any communication between his former coach and star player, and said James has never asked for any special treatment.

“We treat everyone the same around here,” Lue said.

Along with close friends Maverick Carter, Rich Paul and Randy Mims, James has built a sports business empire. Among the group’s most prominent successes are landing James a lifetime

Carter handles James’ business affairs, while Paul serves as his agent – and for several other top players – and Mims works with the Cavs. They formed LRMR marketing shortly after James turned pro, and the 31-year-old threetime champion was criticized for surrounding himself with friends.

“I’ve tried to put my guys in position to where they can walk in a meeting and go places and they don’t need me because they got to a point where they’ve done their homework,” James said.

“They’ve studied on what they want to do, and they can hold a meeting without me because of the respect that they have and the knowledge they have. That’s just 12 years of hard work and dedication that we put to each other. I know Phil’s in a position of power in our sport, but to criticize me and my guys over that is nonsense.”

The Cavs play the Knicks on Dec. 7 in Madison Square Garden, a game surely to be intensified by the Jackson-James drama.

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio – LeBron James respected Phil Jackson’s unmatched coaching accomplishments.

That affection has vanished.

“I’ve got nothing for him,” James said Tuesday.

James fired back at the 11-time coaching champion and current New York Knicks president for using the word “posse” in a recent interview to describe the NBA megastar’s business associates. James said he lost all respect for Jackson, and his comments underline a larger societal issue for young African-Americans trying to succeed in business.

In the interview, Jackson, 71, said James always has demanded preferential treatment and called his departure from Miami as a free agent a “slap in the face” to the Heat organization. Jackson recalled a time when James asked for the team to stay over in Cleveland while on a road trip, a request that put coach Erik Spoelstra in a bind.

“You can’t hold up the whole team because you and your mom and your

posse want to spend an extra night in Cleveland,” Jackson said in the ESPN interview .

The word “posse” struck a chord with James, who has surrounded himself with childhood friends during his career.

Jackson’s language also touched a flash point at a time of heightened racial tension in the country.

“We see the success that we have, but LeBron James then there is always someone that lets you know how far we still have to go as African-Americans,” James said Tuesday after the Cavaliers’ morning shootaround. “I don’t believe that Phil Jackson would have used that term if he was doing business with someone else and working with another team or if he was working with anybody in sports that was owning a team that wasn’t African-American and had a group of guys around them that didn’t agree with what they did.

“I don’t think he would have called them a posse. But it just shows how far we have to go. But it won’t stop us from

8 COLLEGE BASKETBALL: NORTHWESTERN

Vassar sues NCAA, NU over transfer

Complaint also says Collins, staff harassed player

By CARYN ROUSSEAU The Associated Press

CHICAGO – A Northwestern basketball player is suing the school and the NCAA in federal court, claiming the association’s transfer regulations violate antitrust laws.

In the federal lawsuit filed Monday, Johnnie Vassar said Northwestern harassed him and made other efforts to force his transfer and take away his athletic scholarship. Vassar’s lawsuit is seeking class-action status and wants the NCAA to change rules preventing players from transferring to other Division I schools without losing eligibility to sit out for a year.

Vassar said he received offers but only if he could play right away, which he couldn’t because of NCAA rules.

According to a report on SB Nation’s InsideNU, the complaint alleges Vassar was “berated” by Northwestern staff, including head coach

AP file photo

Northwestern coach Chris Collins yells at guard Johnnie Vassar during a game against Central Michigan on Dec. 17, 2014, in Evanston. Vassar is suing the school and the NCAA over transfer regulations.

Chris Collins, and was put “through a campaign of harassment, pressure and deception.” The report goes on to say Vassar announced his intention to transfer March 30, 2015, but was unable to find a school that would accept him unless he was eligible imme-

diately, so he remained at Northwestern and on scholarship.

Vassar’s attorney, Steve Berman, called the NCAA transfer rules a “destructive double standard,” saying that students who aren’t athletes are eligible for new scholarships when

they transfer without waiting a year.

Berman said coaches often transfer schools with pay raises.

“The NCAA needs to level the playing field for these thousands of kids who face undue punishment under its senseless bylaws,” he said.

Northwestern Vice President for University Relations Al Cubbage said the school doesn’t believe Vassar’s lawsuit has legal merit.

“We will defend the university vigorously,” Cubbage said in a statement Tuesday. The NCAA didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

This isn’t the first lawsuit against the Indianapolis-based NCAA alleging it violates antitrust laws by forcing nongraduate players in sports including football and basketball to sit out a year after transferring schools.

Former Weber State football player Devin Pugh sued in November 2015, and former Northern Illinois punter Peter Deppe sued in March. Both said the NCAA’s transfer rules violate federal antitrust laws.

In August 2015, the National Labor Relations Board blocked a historic bid by Northwestern football players to become the first in the nation to unionize. The board said the prospect of union and nonunion teams in college could lead to different standards at different schools.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP

Illinois cruises; No. 7 Kansas tops No. 1 Duke The ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHAMPAIGN – Jalen Coleman-Lands and Maverick Morgan scored 18 points apiece to lead six players in double figures, and Illinois beat Division II McKendree, 112-65, Tuesday night.

Michael Finke had 17 points, on 8-of10 shooting, and eight rebounds, and Tracy Abrams was 5 of 5 from the field with four 3-pointers and finished with 14 points and six assists. Aaron Jordan scored 11, including three 3s, and Mike Thorne Jr. had 10 points and 10 rebounds.

Illinois (3-0) opened the game with a 7-0 run, including five points by Finke, and never trailed.

Coleman-Lands hit 3-pointers on three consecutive possessions to make it 21-10 with 12:28 left in the first half and the Illini led by double figures the rest of the way.

The Illinois bench outscored McKendree’s reserves 59-23 and shot 56 percent

from the field, including 16 of 28 (57 percent) from 3-point range.

Nate Michael, son of former Illinois basketball player Tom Michael, led McKendree (1-0) with 25 points. The game served as an exhibition for the Bearcats.

No. 7 Kansas 77, No. 1 Duke 75: At New York, Frank Mason III hit a short jumper with 1.3 seconds to play to give Kansas a victory over Duke in the State Farm Champions Classic.

The Jayhawks (1-1) beat a topranked team for the eighth time and this one looked a lot easier with 8 minutes to play and Kansas leading 62-50.

But the Blue Devils (2-1), despite a terrible shooting game by Grayson Allen, the leading vote-getter on The Associated Press’ preseason All-America team, managed to suddenly start hitting shots, and they tied the game at 75 with 15 seconds left on a 3-pointer by Frank Jackson..

Kansas called a timeout with 8.2 seconds left and set up the game-winner.

Mason led Kansas with 21 points and freshman Josh Jackson added 15 and Devonte’ Graham had 13.

Hayes, the Big Ten preseason player of the year, scored 11 points in the first 12 minutes and was held scoreless until Ethan Happ fed him for an easy lay-in with 11 minutes left in the game.

At Omaha, Nebraska, Khyri Thomas scored 15 of his 18 points in the second half, breaking open a close game with a three-point play and 3-pointer on consecutive possessions, and Creighton defeated Wisconsin.

Maurice Watson Jr. had 17 points and 10 assists and Marcus Foster added 15 points for the Bluejays (2-0).

Bronson Koenig scored 21 points and Nigel Hayes had 16 points to lead the Badgers (1-1), who made only 3 of 26 3-pointers after starting 8 of 13 from beyond the arc.

Wisconsin got within seven points in the final minute, but Justin Patton and Thomas finished off the Badgers

scored 23 points on 7-for-11 shooting from 3-point range, and Isaiah Briscoe added 21 to lead Kentucky over Michigan State in the State Farm Champions Classic at Madison Square Garden.

The Wildcats (3-0) averaged 90 points in their first two games, but this time it was defense that did it as the Spartans (0-2) shot 32.8 percent from the field (20 of 61), including 5 for 26 (19.2 percent) from beyond the arc.

Relying on another talented freshman class, Kentucky was able to up the tempo enough and keep the tenacious defense going that the Spartans committed 21 turnovers, which the Wildcats turned into 24 points.

Northern Illinois quarterback Ryan Graham drops back to pass against Toledo last week at Guaranteed Rate Field in Chicago. Graham likely will start again in place of the injured Anthony Maddie on Wednesday at Eastern Michigan. yards in a 31-24 loss to Toledo last week at Guaranteed Rate Field, home of the White Sox. Graham also spent time as the starter last year after starting quarterback Drew Hare went out with an Achilles injury and Maddie was out with

back surgery.

“I give Ryan a ton of credit from the standpoint that he was benched,” Carey said. “Call it what it is, he got benched earlier in the year. He has continued to work hard in practice, not hang his

head, not feel sorry for himself and got better. I think you saw that on Wednesday night.”

Once a doormat in the conference, Eastern Michigan (6-4 overall, 3-3 MAC West) has come out of nowhere to become bowl eligible for the first time since 1995.

Quarterback Brogan Roback missed the first three games of the year but has made the most of his five starts. He has thrown for 265 yards a game, with 13 touchdowns and three interceptions. In a 48-41 win over Ball State last week, in which the Eagles overcame a 21-point deficit, Roback went 37 for 71 for 468 yards and three touchdowns.

The Huskies (3-7, 3-3 MAC West) have had four losses by seven points or fewer – including a pair of defeats in triple overtime – and the Eagles are one of four teams in the conference that are bowl eligible.

DeKALB – The quarterback who revitalized the Northern Illinois offense is done for the year.

A chance for a trip to a seventh consecutive Mid-American Conference championship game is off the table, and the Huskies likely are no longer bowl eligible.

With two weeks to play, the Huskies are playing for pride as they head on the road to face an Eastern Michigan team that is bowl eligible for the first time in two decades at 6 p.m. Wednesday in Ypsilanti.

NIU coach Rod Carey announced Sunday that the season is over for quarterback Anthony Maddie, who helped boost the Huskies’ offense since taking over as the starter five weeks into the season. The injury, suffered in the 45-20 win over Bowling Green on Nov. 1, means sophomore Ryan Graham likely is the starter again.

Graham, who lost the starting job to Maddie earlier in the year, went 24 for 43 with 227 yards, three touchdowns and an interception and rushed for 97

10 WHITE SOX

Interest in Sale, Quintana reportedly grows

By CHRIS DeLUCA

cdeluca@suntimes.com After making substantial offseason splashes the past two years adding big-name talent, the White Sox appear poised for a major selloff this offseason.

There’s little question the Sox are willing to listen on offers for first baseman Jose Abreu, third baseman Todd Frazier, relievers David Robertson and Nate Jones, and outfielders Adam Eaton and Melky Cabrera.

But it seems most teams are interested in left-handers Chris Sale and Jose Quintana.

Reports across the country Tuesday had teams already lining up for Sale trade talks; notably the Washington Nationals and Atlanta Braves seemed to have stepped up their interest. They join the Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees and Texas Rangers, who all began showing deep interest during last July’s trade deadline.

The question is: How much of a rebuild are the Sox interested in staging this offseason? It has been a closely guarded secret.

A full rebuild – a Cubs-style tanking that could take five years – likely would involve moving Sale, despite his age (he will be 28 on March 30) and his reasonable contract (he’s owed $12 million in 2017, with team options worth $12.5 million in 2018 and $13.5 million in 2019).

Sale would bring the haul of young talent the Sox need to begin their rebuild. And the feeling around baseball is that the Sox would be willing to deal Sale if a team overwhelms them with a package of young talent in return.

That’s where the Braves seem to stand out.

AP file photo

Several teams reportedly are interested in trading for White Sox pitchers Jose Quintana (left) and Chris Sale.

The Braves will be opening a new ballpark in 2017, and they have already made two big win-now moves in adding veteran pitchers Bartolo Colon and R.A. Dickey in the past week. And the Braves have a ton of young talent,

starting with center fielders Ender Inciarte and Mallex Smith.

Atlanta also has a stockpile of young pitching prospects, including Aaron Blair, Matt Wisler, Sean Newcomb, Kolby Allard, Ian Anderson, Mike So-

roka, Touki Toussaint and Max Fried.

Sale also has had a turbulent relationship with the front office, publicly ripping vice president Ken Williams for his handling of the Adam LaRoche issue last spring training and for cutting up his throwback jersey before a game last summer.

Do the Sox have a desire to trade their most marketable chip this offseason?

Williams wasn’t biting Tuesday, during the annual White Sox Amateur City Elite baseball program event that features student-athletes signing letters of intent.

Williams always attends the event but refused to discuss the Sox’s offseason plan.

“In the past, I’ve answered questions with regards to baseball and that seems to end up on the evening news,” he said. “The kids are the focus tonight, and they should have their moment, and we’ll defer all baseball questions to another time when I can deflect them.”

Last week at the general managers’ meetings, GM Rick Hahn touched on the idea of a full rebuild of the Sox to build a winner with staying power, rather than trying to win now at all costs.

“But we aren’t going to continue to take half-measures, so to speak, in order to hopefully, in some instances, catch lightning in a bottle or catch some upside here on a short-term basis in order to win,” Hahn said last week.

“We want to put ourselves in the best and firmest position to win on a sustainable basis going forward. If that requires a longer term view or perhaps some short-term hardships along the way, we realize it’s going to be for the greater good.”

Roberts won in his first year as a manager. A former backup outfielder, his highlight as a player was a key stolen base in the 2004 playoffs for a Boston team guided by Francona.

Members of the Baseball Writers’ Association of America voted at the end of the regular season.

NL, AL Manager of the Year voting

Roberts beat out Maddon, who led the Cubs to the World Series championship, and Washington’s Dusty Baker.

Roberts led Los Angeles to the NL West title despite the Dodgers putting 28 different players on the disabled list, more than any team in the last 30 years.

Francona guided a club beset by injuries and drug suspensions to a surprising first-place finish. The Indians had a 3-1 lead in the World Series before the Cubs rallied.

Texas’ Jeff Banister was second and Baltimore’s Buck Showalter was third.

SPORTS BRIEFS

Bears place Long, Sutton on IR, activate WR Wilson

The Bears placed Kyle Long and nose tackle Will Sutton on injured reserve and activated receiver Marquess Wilson off the physically unable-to-perform list Tuesday.

Long, the team’s three-time Pro Bowl guard who signed a four-year extension in September, injured his ankle in Sunday’s loss to the Buccaneers and had to be carted off the field. He joins fellow first-round picks Kyle Fuller and Kevin White on IR. Sutton left Sunday’s game in Tampa with an ankle injury. He had played well in place of Eddie Goldman, who did return last week from his ankle injury. Sutton, a third-year player, had 15 tackles this season.

Wilson began practicing last week after sitting out the first nine weeks of the season after offseason foot surgery. The 2013 seventh-round choice could pick up the slack at receiver during Alshon Jeffery’s four-game suspension.

“We lost him last season and I haven’t seen a whole lot of him, but judging off of last year, I see a very good young player that’s learning,” coach John Fox said last week. “Unfortunately he’s been injured and that slows down that learning curve.

I’m excited to get him back.”

Wilson had 28 catches for 464 yards, averaging 16.6 yards a catch last season before injuring his foot.

Costa Rica routs U.S.; Americans 0-2 in World Cup qualifying

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica – The United States put itself in a deep hole in World Cup qualifying with one of its worst performances in decades.

Taking advantage of defensive mistakes, Costa Rica routed the U.S., 4-0, Tuesday night to drop the Americans to 0-2 for the first time in the final round of the North and Central American and Caribbean region.

Johan Venegas scored in the 43rd minute, Cristian Bolanos doubled the lead in the 69th and second-half substitute Joel Campbell beat beleaguered goalkeeper Brad Guzan in the 74th and 77th minutes in the worst margin of defeat for the U.S. in a qualifier since a 5-1 defeat at Mexico in November 1980.

It was the biggest losing shutout margin in a qualifier since the U.S. fell, 6-0, at Mexico in 1957.

Combined with Friday’s 2-1 loss to Mexico at Columbus, Ohio, the U.S. finds itself in a quick deficit in the hexagonal, which resumes in March.

All together, now: deep breaths. Stay calm. Don’t sweat about the wine for Thanksgiving.

Yes, it’s time for my annual reminder that you have much more to worry about than selecting wine for the holiday feast.

There’s the menu, the timing, the seating arrangement around your loud relative who won’t stop yammering even as he’s stuffing his face with your food.

To be honest, the great national anxiety over which wine goes with turkey is a hob-gobble-goblin invented by wine writers desperate to stuff an article with seasonal advice. A cottage industry of wine snobbery has developed around the concept that turkey is a wine killer.

Nonsense. The turkey is just a big chicken, as they say. Whatever you drink with chicken will be just fine with the holiday bird.

(I’m not making this up. The very first wine article ever published by Hugh Johnson, the venerable British wine writer profiled in this space a few weeks ago, was in the British edition of Vogue magazine in 1960 – and it was about pairing wines with Christmas turkey. The article is included in an anthology, “Hugh Johnson on Wine: The Good Bits From 55 Years of Scribbling,” to be published in the United States in the spring.)

The wine-food conundrum for Thanksgiving stems from the plethora of dishes, spices and flavors on the table and on our plates all at once, rather than in orderly courses. Too often our wine-food pairings become wine-protein pairings, and we forget the sauces, spices, textures and vegetables that also are part of our dining experience.

My annual advice remains the same:

Open one of everything. Or at least a wide assortment of wines that will go well with the variety of dishes on your holiday table. Find wines you like at prices you can afford for the occasion. For example, pinot noir is a classic favorite because of its ability to play nicely with a variety of foods. But you might not want to buy a premier cru Burgundy unless you’re having turkey dinner for two. Offer a nice pinot from Oregon or California.

Think of Thanksgiving as a wine opportunity, not a challenge. Make a game of it: Compare several wines of various grapes and styles, tasting them with each dish on your table. While you’re avoiding conversation with your relatives, you’ll give yourself a clinic in wine and food pairings. What you learn will carry you through until next year’s gathering.

Here are some basic guidelines: Bub-

Four East Coast wines for Thanksgiving Chatham Vineyards Church Creek Cabernet Franc 2014

refreshed and ready for more after each sip. Bravo! Alcohol by volume: 12.5 percent.

Jon and Mills Wehner are best known for their unoaked chardonnay, called Steel, produced from their estate vineyards on the Eastern Shore, just yards from the Chesapeake Bay and its oysters.

The 2014 cabernet franc is their best red yet that I have tasted, and in fact the best Virginia cab franc I’ve had in a long time. It is dark ruby, with savory aromas of meat and dried herbs. On the palate, the flavor is rich and deep, with just enough spice and bell pepper to reveal the identity of the grape.

The moderate alcohol level left me

Ankida Ridge Pinot Noir 2014

Three stars, Virginia, $24

Two and a half stars, Virginia, $45

Ankida Ridge has been a Virginia star since the debut of its pinot noir with the 2010 vintage. High on a mountainside northwest of Amherst, winemaker Nathan Vrooman produces elegant, light-bodied pinot that looks more to Burgundy in style than to California. The 2014, new to the market, is racy and energetic, with bright berry flavors and firm acidity. Many of the outlets below still have the 2013 vintage. ABV: 13 percent.

bles go with everything. Sparkling wines, including champagne and Spanish cava, are extremely versatile. The bubbles are palate-cleansing and refreshing, especially with salty or deep-fried dishes.

Fruity white wines, such as Riesling or grüner veltliner, also are friendly with a wide variety of foods and flavors.

From bone-dry to sweet, the classically versatile Riesling can match nearly every dish’s acidity, spiciness or texture.

If you prefer red wines, pinot noir, barbera and gamay are classic pairs with a diverse assortment of foods. At the heavier end of the spectrum, syrah and nebbiolo also are good choices.

This year, I’ll be thankful for my family and friends, as well as for this wonderful country of ours. And I’ll be especially thankful there is plenty of wine in my house.

Red Tail Ridge Good Karma Riesling 2015

Two stars, Finger Lakes, N.Y., $15

Not only is this a delicious, food-friendly Riesling from New York’s Finger Lakes, one of my favorite wine regions to visit, but it’s a feel-good wine, too. The winery donates a portion of the profits to food banks in the states where the wine is sold. ABV: 10.5 percent.

Casanel Vineyards Red Spark Brut 2014

Two stars, Virginia, $45

Almost on a lark, Katie DeSouza decided to make a dry sparkling

wine from some of the Norton grapes her family grows in their vineyard just outside Leesburg, Virginia. The result is surprisingly fun: a bright, ruby-colored wine with energetic fizz and delightful fruit flavors that seem to dance around in your mouth. Stylistically, it’s more like an Italian Lambrusco than like the cloyingly sweet sparkling shiraz from Australia that was in vogue a few years back. It is expensive; you can find good Lambrusco for less, and even good champagne can be bought at this price. But it is a delicious novelty, and it just might be the wine to match the cranberry sauce in your Thanksgiving feast. ABV: 12.5 percent.

First time hosting? Not feeding a crowd? Roast a turkey breast

By SARA MOULTON

5- to 7-pound bone-in turkey breast

The Associated Press

Let’s say this year’s Thanksgiving feast is going to be a more intimate affair than the usual cast of thousands, yet you still want turkey. It can be done.

Instead of cooking up a whole bird, why not go with a turkey breast?

“Because,” you reasonably reply, “white meat turkey tends to turn out dry as cardboard.” And indeed, that’s certainly a possibility, especially if you overcook it, which is easy to do.

Happily, I’ve figured out just how to have your turkey breast and eat it, too.

Working on a cookbook several years ago, I came across an old Italian recipe for roast chicken. It required you to stuff a mixture of cheese and vegetables under the chicken’s skin before roasting. Intrigued, I gave it a whirl and was absolutely flabbergasted by the results. Not only was the flavor a knockout, but the meat – including the white meat – was the moistest I’d ever eaten.

It occurred to me this scheme might work just as well with turkey as with chicken. Having finally put this theory to the test, I can say it translated beautifully.

The secret, I think, is the stuffing underneath the skin insulates the meat. My stuffing combines sautéed onion, garlic and shredded zucchini with Parmesan and ricotta cheeses, all bound together with fresh breadcrumbs. But feel free to experiment, as I’m sure any moist stuffing would do the trick.

Of course, it’s still important to avoid overcooking the bird. But you also need to make sure you cook the meat to a safe temperature. This is a balancing act. Cooking the bird to 165

degrees F. is the best bet for safety, but that doesn’t mean you need to leave the bird in the oven until it reaches that temperature. Meat continues cooking even after you pull it from the oven. So if you leave it in until it hits 165 degrees F., you’ll actually cook it to about 170 degrees F. My solution is to pull it out of the oven at 160 degrees F. As the meat rests on the counter (20 minutes is ideal), it reaches 165 degrees F. Resting also allows the juices in the turkey to redistribute so when you slice the bird the juices don’t all come streaming out, leaving you with dry turkey meat. And by the way, to get an accurate reading when you take the bird’s temperature, be sure to insert the thermometer deep into the meat, not just into the stuffing, and not next to the bone.

When you finally carve the breast, make sure every slice has a little bit of stuffing and skin at the top. Also,

while this turkey is wonderfully delicious as is, this is Thanksgiving, after all, and folks expect gravy with their turkey. You can whip up some pan gravy while the breast is resting.

Heat the oven to 325 degree F. Set a rack in the lower third of the oven.

Using a food processor or box grater, coarsely grate the zucchini. In a colander, toss the grated zucchini with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, then let it drain over the sink for 20 minutes. A handful at a time, squeeze out the zucchini to remove excess liquid. Set aside.

In a large skillet over medium, heat the oil.

Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook, stirring, 1 minute.

Add the zucchini and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.

Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the Parmesan, breadcrumbs and ricotta.

Season with salt and pepper.

Use paper towels to pat dry the turkey skin, then rub with a bit of oil and season with salt and pepper. Using your fingers, a chopstick or a grapefruit knife (my favorite), gently separate the skin from the meat on the breast, being careful not to tear it and leaving it attached at the edges. Stuff the zucchini mixture evenly under the loosened skin of the turkey (this is a messy project; just do your best), then place the turkey on a rack set in a roasting pan. Cover the breast loosely with foil.

Roast the turkey breast for 1 hour. Remove the foil and roast for an additional 1 to 1½ hours, or until the turkey reaches 160 degrees F. If the turkey starts to brown too much, cover it again with foil. Transfer the turkey breast to a platter and let it rest at least 20 minutes before carving.

Don’t settle for dull turkey gravy at Thanksgiving

Bigger and Better Turkey Gravy AP photo

Veggies, spices add more flavor

By SARA MOULTON The Associated Press

Just because Thanksgiving mostly is about tradition doesn’t mean we aren’t open to going off-script when it comes to side dishes and exactly how to cook the big bird.

But the gravy? It’s where innovation goes to die. Generally, we’re content to just pour some store-bought chicken broth, along with a little butter and flour, into the pan in which the turkey was roasted, then call it a day. In truth, I love pan gravy as much as anyone, but you can make a more exciting gravy with just a little more work.

We were taught in cooking school your sauce only will be as good as the liquid you add to it. In the case of turkey gravy, that would be turkey broth.

What can be done to amp up its flavor?

To start, you want to brown the turkey parts that have been packed inside the bird – the neck and the giblets (that is, the heart and the gizzards). Then, slice off the bird’s wings – which nobody eats anyway – and add them to the other parts. (Do not add the liver; it will make the stock bitter.

Instead, just reserve or freeze it until you can sauté it in butter and serve it on toast. Yum!) Browning these turkey parts in the company of some carrots and onions develops complex flavors. This is called the Maillard reaction. It’s what happens when amino acids combined with the sugars found in meat and many vegetables are heated above 300 degrees F. Concentrated juices from these ingredients will collect in the bottom of the pan as you brown them.

When you deglaze the pan, you dissolve those juices and add them to the browned ingredients, further deepening the stock’s flavor.

You may be surprised to find tomato paste among this recipe’s ingredients, but tomatoes happen to be a terrific source of umami. Umami is the fifth taste, after sweet, sour, salty and bitter. It usually is described as “meaty.” The carrots in the stock also

Mushroom Gravy

Proceed with the master recipe up to the point of adding the fat to the roasting pan.

Add half the fat and 1/3 cup minced shallots and cook over medium heat, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add 8 ounces of assorted sliced mushrooms and 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden, about 5 minutes.

Add the remaining fat and the flour and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Add 1/3 cup dry sherry, Madeira or tawny port, or 1/2 cup red wine, (this is optional; you can leave the alcohol out) along with the reserved cooking juices and two-thirds of the turkey stock.

Bring the mixture to a boil, whisking. If the gravy needs thinning, add more of the turkey stock and the juices that accumulated on the platter where the turkey has been resting.

Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Mustard-Herb Gravy

Proceed with the master recipe up through the point of cooking the fat and flour for 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of dry white wine (this is optional; you can leave the alcohol out) along with the reserved cooking juices and two-thirds of the turkey stock. Bring the mixture to a boil, whisking. If the gravy needs thinning, add more of the turkey stock and the juices that accumulated on the platter where the turkey has been resting.

Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Whisk in 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard and 2 to 4 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil, tarragon or sage. Season with salt and pepper.

contribute umami. Briefly sautéing the tomato paste in the skillet helps to brown it and develop its natural sugars.

Having cooked up your stock in a separate pan, you’re eventually going to want to add to it the juices that streamed out of the turkey while it roasted and use the fat that accumulated in the pan while you basted the bird. Again, this is how you intensify the gravy’s turkey flavor.

By the way, don’t despair if your turkey is missing the happy little package of giblets and neck bone usually found inside the cavity; you’ll still have the turkey wings. Just cut them off and supplement with some chicken wings. You’ll need about 8 ounces of poultry parts in total. Finally, I recommend making the turkey stock a day or two in advance of the feast. It will make the big day itself a little less stressful.

Bigger and Better Turkey Gravy Start to finish: 4 hours 15 minutes (35 minutes active) Makes 5 cups

The neck, wings and giblets (about 8-ounces total) from an 18- to 24-pound turkey 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 medium yellow onion, medium-chopped 1 medium carrot, medium-chopped 2 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled 1 tablespoon tomato paste 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth 1 celery stalk, coarsely chopped 2 sprigs fresh thyme 1 bay leaf The drippings, 1/2 cup fat and pan juices from an 18- to 24-pound roasted turkey Butter, melted (if there isn’t enough fat from the roast to make the gravy) 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons instant flour (such as Wondra) Kosher salt and ground black pepper Carefully chop the neck and wings into 1-inch pieces and pat them and the giblets dry. In a large skillet over medium-high, heat the oil. Add the turkey pieces and giblets, reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the onion, carrot and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until

the vegetables are golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Transfer the mixture to a medium saucepan and add 1 cup of water to the skillet. Deglaze the pan over high heat, scraping up the brown bits with a spatula, until all the bits have been dissolved. Pour the mixture over the turkey parts in the saucepan. Add the chicken broth and 2 cups water to the saucepan.

Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook, skimming the scum that rises to the surface with a skimmer or slotted spoon, until there is no more scum, 15 to 20 minutes. Add the celery, thyme and bay leaf, then simmer gently for 2 hours. Strain the stock through a colander, pressing hard on the solids. Discard the solids and measure the stock; you should have 4 cups. If you have more, return the liquid to the saucepan and simmer until it is reduced to 4 cups. If you have less, add water to the stock to make 4 cups. Cool, cover and chill until it is time to make the gravy.

When the turkey is cooked and resting on a platter, pour all the liquid in the roasting pan into a fat separator or large glass measuring cup. Pour or skim off the fat from the cup and reserve it; leave the cooking juices in the fat separator. You will need 1/2 cup of the fat for the gravy; if you don’t have 1/2 cup, supplement with melted butter.

Set the roasting pan on top of two burners set over medium-low. Add the fat, followed by the flour. Whisk the mixture, preferably using a flat whisk, for 5 minutes. Add the reserved cooking juices from the roasting pan and two-thirds of the turkey stock. Bring the mixture to a boil, whisking. If the gravy needs thinning, add more of the turkey stock and the juices that accumulated on the platter where the turkey has been resting.

Reduce the heat to a simmer and simmer for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and sage.

To assemble the sandwiches, spread 4 of the slices of bread with the mayonnaise mixture, add a layer of cranberry sauce, and top with the turkey, lettuce, and tomato. Spread the remaining four slices of bread with cranberry sauce and place on top of the turkey.

Slice the sandwiches in half and serve.

Thanksgiving is a day for celebrating, where we enjoy the company of friends, share delicious food and reflect on our country’s history and traditions.

Throughout this celebration, though, there is one lingering thought in the back of our minds that cannot be ignored: Tomorrow there will be leftovers.

Will we eat pie for breakfast? Will there be turkey soup simmering on the stove? Did we buy bread specifically for the purpose of making sandwiches with leftovers? The answer to all of these questions should be yes.

Every family has its own unique Thanksgiving traditions and recipes. But the next day, homes across America are bound by a common ritual: the day-after turkey sandwich. And while our recipe for a Thanksgiving Sandwich has all of the classic components (plus bacon!), the beauty of leftovers is they can be personalized to suit your mood – and the contents of your refrigerator.

Eventually, we all suffer from turkey and mashed potato fatigue. Luckily, all it takes is a few minutes and a little bit of creativity to transform these ingredients into something fresh.

Cranberry Sauce Makes 1¼ cups

3/4 cups fresh cranberries 2 tablespoons sugar 1/2 cup water 2 teaspoons grated orange zest In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the cranberries, sugar and water. Bring to a boil and whisk to break up the cranberries.

Cook the mixture until the cranberries burst and the sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the zest. Cool completely before serving.

By BECKY KRYSTAL • The Washington Post

T

hanksgiving is all about tradition, so it’s only natural that we field a lot of the same questions each year about

the same things. But it’s OK. These things come up again and again for a reason. We’ve gathered some of the most common questions here for your easy perusal.

Should I roast a turkey breast for two people?

Size-wise, a turkey breast is definitely a good fit for a small crowd, though for a pair, you’ll probably want to aim for something close to 6 pounds. Even then, you’ll have some extra for subsequent meals. To satisfy those who go for dark meat, consider getting a small whole turkey.

You might have especially good luck with a local farmer. If the ideas of a whitemeat-only breast or too-big whole turkey don’t appeal to you, there are other options. You might consider a duck, which is smaller, with rich, gamy flavor. Or go the ultimate route for single- or small-serving poultry and cook Cornish hens.

How big of a turkey should I buy?

The Agriculture Department suggests one pound of turkey per person. We’ve previously suggested about 1½ pounds for each diner to allow for leftovers.

When to buy and how to store your turkey.

When you buy the bird depends on whether you’re going with fresh or frozen. A raw, fresh turkey should be stored for no longer than two days in the refrigerator. In theory, a frozen turkey can last indefinitely. But for the best quality, use it within a year. Of course, if you have yet to buy one for this year, you have nothing to worry about in terms of storage time.

Should I brine the turkey?

Brining helps poultry stay moist and tasty. (Kosher or self-basting birds should not be brined.) Some people choose to dry brine their turkey – rub it with salt, basically. In that situation, salt draws the meat’s juices to the surface of the bird. The juices then mix with the salt, forming a brine that then is reabsorbed by the meat. A few years ago, deputy Post Food editor Bonnie S. Benwick tried both methods and decided she preferred a wet brine, which required less effort and resulted in more uniformly moist and seasoned meat. When you remove the turkey from the brine, make sure you pat it thoroughly dry to get crisp skin. But consider this: You also can achieve a moist, flavorful turkey without brining at all.

Why a turkey breast?

Even dark-meat fans can appreciate the moist, tender yield of a bone-in turkey breast.

The key is in choosing a cooking method that will do it justice. A turkey breast can be just the ticket for a small group, as well as an alternative to roasting a second bird when you’re planning to feed a crowd. A real selling point: It can be done in advance.

How can I make gravy in advance?

Roast extra turkey wings until deeply browned and crisped. Toss them into a pot of at least four cups of broth with your favorite aromatics: celery, onion, fresh herbs, a bay leaf, whole black peppercorns. For interest, add 1/2 cup of dry red wine or Madeira or unsweetened apple cider. Cook, strain and discard the solids.

Then you can melt eight tablespoons of unsalted butter in a separate saucepan and whisk in 1/2 cup of low-protein flour, like Wondra or pastry flour, to form a smooth roux; it needs to be cooked over medium heat for a few minutes to lose its floury taste. Whisk in your enriched stock and cook until thickened, which should take more than 20 minutes.

Season, cool, refrigerate or freeze. Once the bird comes out of the oven, you might want to whisk strained pan drippings into the reheated gravy, then season with salt and pepper.

How do I make a perfect pie crust?

A few pointers: Keep things cool. Rotate the crust 90 degrees periodically as you’re rolling it. Make your crusts in advance. And if something does go wrong, roll with it. Do your best, and call it a day. Smile, because, hey, you’re going to be eating pie.

What can I make ahead?

Cranberry sauce: Most cranberry relishes can be refrigerated for up to a week.

Gravy: You can make your gravy (or most of it, minus the drippings) a few days early.

Bread: Bake your bread or rolls a day or two in advance.

Pies: Most pies can be made two or more days in

What can I do with leftovers? advance.

Turkey: Start brining the day before.

Stuffing: Advance work depends on the recipe. Some stuffings can be made wholly in advance; others should be made up to the point of adding the liquid. Reheat or finish baking on Thursday.

Spiced Cranberry Chutney

The Associated Press

Although Thanksgiving is the quintessential American holiday, some of my American friends and I celebrate it here in London every year.

A few years back, after cooking a turkey curry, I learned the hard way never to mess with the traditional roasted turkey, the star of the show. Since then my contribution is always to spice up the sides, quite literally. This year I’ve narrowed my focus to cranberries.

There are only a handful of cranberry farms in the UK partly because they only can grow under very special conditions, like acidic peat soil and fresh running water, which are more commonly found in the U.S. So when I see them in London supermarkets, I get very excited.

My favorite thing to do with them, on the run up to our Thanksgiving dinner, is to turn them into a rich sticky chutney. A little sugar helps counter the extreme acidic sourness these fresh berries can have, while a few warming spices such as cloves, black pepper and red chili add just enough heat and zing to perk up the turkey.

Happily, this chutney is not just for Thanksgiving. It works really well in cheese sandwiches, and alongside ham and game meats. It can be prepared a few weeks in advance too, giving you more time to have a holiday on actual Thanksgiving.

Gladys Bronwyn Stern, a British author and critic who died in 1973, wrote, “Both optimists and pessimists contribute to our society. The optimist invents the airplane; and the pessimist, the parachute.”

A bridge player should be pessimistic unless he needs to be lucky to make or break the contract. How would that approach help South in this deal? He is in three no-trump, and West leads a fourth-highest spade two. Declarer tries dummy’s jack (in the hope that West has led from king-queen-empty-fourth), but East covers with the queen.

South might have responded one heart, but with game-forcing values he was right to keep all of the suits in play. Six or seven diamonds might have been the best contract if North had a minor two-suiter. North’s two-club rebid guaranteed at least a six-card suit and denied a four-card major. South bid what he hoped he could make.

Declarer starts with seven top tricks: one spade, two hearts, one diamond and three clubs. After taking the spade ace on the third round of the suit, the optimist unblocks his club king, plays a heart to dummy’s ace, then cashes the club ace and queen. However, when West discards on the third club, the contract can no longer be made. Yes, if clubs are 3-3, South wins 10 tricks, but that is against the odds.

The pessimist sees that he needs only five club winners, not six. He overtakes his king with dummy’s ace and cashes the queen, happy to see the jack appear from West. Declarer drives out the club 10 and claims.

Note, though, that he also succeeds if clubs are 3-3, just not with an overtrick.
