Madigan’s plan a crime against taxpayers When you’re not committed to fixing a problem, it’s only going to get worse.

That’s certainly the case with Illinois’ massively underfunded state pension systems.

According to the most recent report from the state’s bipartisan Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability, Illinois’ five public pension systems are now underfunded by $130 billion. That’s up from $111 billion last year, a staggering 17 percent increase.

To put that into some perspective, Illinois’ total operating budget was $36 billion in fiscal 2015, the last year the state had a full-year, approved budget. Of course, revenue and expenses fluctuate from one year to the next, but using that 2015 budget number as a base (because it’s what we have), it would take the state of Illinois more than 3½ years to fully fund its pension systems if it spent every penny in the general fund on pensions.

Of course, that’s not going to happen.

State government needs to operate.

Current state employees need to get paid.

State contractors need to be reimbursed for work already completed. ... Oh wait, they don’t necessarily. The state currently owes vendors such as human services providers, small businesses and others $10.6 billion, a figure that could reach more than $13 billion by July. But that’s another column for another day.

So with all of these overwhelming financial problems, what are our state’s elected officials doing about it?

Playing politics as usual in Springfield, of course. Translation: nothing.

Gov. Bruce Rauner has a plan to help stimulate Illinois’ economy. His Turnaround Agenda includes enacting comprehensive worker’s compensation, tort liability and collective bargaining reform, freezing property taxes and allowing local governments to opt out of paying the prevailing wage on construction and other projects.

But House Speaker Michael Madigan wants nothing to do with it. His plan? Maintain the status quo in terms of policy, and raise everyone’s taxes to fill the shortfalls.

Madigan’s plan is not really a plan at all.

It’s a crime against taxpayers.

Friday’s game marks furthest Johnsburg football has gone into playoffs

By CYNTHIA WOLF

editorial@shawmedia.com JOHNSBURG – A package of sponge brushes and gallons of yellow, blue, white and black paint at her feet, Johnsburg High School freshman Autumn Taylor outlined a Skyhawk beak on a window at Doggie Depot on Johnsburg Road.

It was one of many such decorations popping up midweek, all in connection with what everyone here knows is the hottest ticket in

town. It costs $6 and involves a little something to do with a numerical talisman.

It is, of course, a ticket to Friday night’s game at the Johnsburg High School football field. It’s the semifinal between the Johnsburg Skyhawks and the Wendell Phillips Academy Wildcats – the team that knocked the Skyhawks out of playoff contention last year and the year before.

This year, “Third time’s the charm” is a local mantra, as resi-

dents and students express confidence that their undefeated Hawks will break the reigning Class 4A state champ’s spell.

Making it to the semis is the furthest the Skyhawks have gone since the school’s 1978 inception, and yes, folks here are a tad amped up about it.

“It’s been amazing,” said Kelley Layton, athletic secretary at the school and head cheerleading

WOODSTOCK – A McHenry County judge soon will decide the fate of a Huntley man who pleaded guilty to the second-degree murder of his wife.

Edward Hartgraves, 66, was arrested March 20, 2015 for domestic battery after authorities said he pushed and punched Carol Hartgraves in their home.

He then was charged with first-degree murder after Edward she died in the hospital on Hartgraves March 23, 2015.

An autopsy was conducted by pathologist Nancy Jones, who determined that Carol Hartgraves died from multiple injuries of blunt force trauma with cirrhosis to the liver being a significant factor, she said in her report.

Prosecutors allowed Hartgraves in October to plead guilty to a lesser charge of second-degree murder. He faces at least four and up to 20 years in prison on the Class 1 felony – a term of imprisonment that will be determined by Judge Sharon Prather on Tuesday.

Assistant State’s Attorney John Gibbons argued Thursday at the conclusion of a two-day sentencing hearing that the defendant should be sentenced at or near 20 years in prison because of his history of documented domestic violence against his wife.

“This was more than a push. … This is an archetypal case of domestic violence,” Gibbons said Thursday to the court and a handful of Edward Hartgraves’ family

“They had a great marriage for many, many years before the advent of alcohol.”

Albert Wysocki

Edward Hartgraves’ attorney and friends.

He said the state presented more than one instance of past domestic violence, including one that resulted in an order of protection against Edward Hartgraves. “[Carol Hartgraves] was not silent in this courtroom during this sentencing.

You heard her words through the evidence,” Gibbons said.

Albert Wysocki, Edward Hartgraves’ attorney, described his client as a loving father, grandfather and husband. He said Edward Hartgraves was “a victim of his own addiction” and should be punished, just not to the extent for which the state is advocating.

“They had a great marriage for many, many years before the advent of alcohol,” he said.

Bruce Levy, a forensic pathologist who testified for the defense, said he believed with a degree of medical certainty that Carol Hartgraves’ died from a gastrointestinal hemorrhage sustained at the hospital, not blunt force trauma.

He said the injuries she sustained before her hospital stay – the broken left arm and cut to her chin – were not life-threatening injuries, and would not likely cause trauma to the body. Levy also said he believed the manner of death was natural.

Levy said Carol Hartgraves had liver disease and was “well on her way” to cirrhosis as early as 2003, according to her medical records.

Carol Hartgraves developed a gastrointestinal hemorrhage March 21 and went into liver failure, Levy said. She went into cardiac arrest and doctors performed CPR to revive her. Levy said many of the other injuries seen on Carol Hartgraves’ body postmortem were caused by medical intervention, including broken ribs and bruising near her chest.

Assistant State’s Attorney John Gibbons asked Levy if trauma to the body or blood vessels could trigger bleeding in the gastrointestinal system, and he said it could if it were near the abdomen.

Adam Hartgraves, the son of the couple, testified Thursday his childhood was “not a whole lot out of the ordinary” with the exception of his mother’s “odd” behavior – actions he later contributed to her battles with alcoholism.

He said he wasn’t aware of the seriousness of Carol Hartgraves’ condition until she was hospitalized in 2003 and nearly died. Adam Hartgraves said his father said he didn’t know the extent of his wife’s illness until that point, but he admitted to drinking too much.

Adam Hartgraves said his relationship with his father is “distant … but still loving” and described him as an honest, persistent, hard worker who cares about his family.

“I’m disappointed with some of the things I’ve heard, but overall I think he’s a good person, and I hope he can be part of my life and my son’s life sooner rather than later and without alcohol,” he said.

Cary administrator leaving for top spot in Libertyville

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com CARY – Cary Village Administrator Christopher Clark has been chosen for the same position in Libertyville.

Clark, 43, was hired in Cary in 2011 and previously held administrative roles in his hometown of Glenview, Grayslake and Lake Forest.

At a special meeting of the Libertyville Board of Trustees on Tuesday, Mayor Terry Weppler said Clark had been chosen for the position, and the board will vote on his contract at its next meeting, Tuesday.

“I’ve been proud of my work here and proud of the work of the village board over the last five years I’ve been here,” Clark said. “And I look forward to bringing some of those skills to Libertyville.”

If his contract is approved, Clark will start with Libertyville on Dec. 19, he said. He plans on officially resigning from Cary after his new contract is approved.

During Clark’s time in Cary, the village moved forward with several

“I’ve been proud of my work here and proud of the work of the village board over the last five years I’ve been here, and I look forward to bringing some of those skills to Libertyville.”

Northwest Herald Web Poll Question Log on to www.NWHerald.com and vote on today’s poll question:

Are you hosting Thanksgiving?

Thursday’s results as of 9:30 p.m.:

Christopher Clark, Cary village administrator projects including plans for a Metra station upgrade, Sage Product’s expansion and joint bidding program with other McHenry County municipalities.

Clark credits much of the work to the village board and guidance of the village’s comprehensive plan, which was established in January 2015.

“I just have appreciated how much guidance the village board has provided in giving the extraordinary professional staff here the latitude to bring in innovative projects, capital work that has been needed for years, allowing us the opportunity to work with outside agencies,” Clark said.

In coming years, Clark said he hopes to see Cary’s downtown continue to grow with the train station and

planned streetscape improvements. “[The board] already has a vision, now it’s just trying to sustain it for the long haul,” Clark said.

Cary Mayor Mark Kownick said Clark was an outstanding administrator who brought great professionalism to the village staff.

“We wish him great success,” Kownick said. “He’s been a tremendous asset to the village. He will be missed.”

Clark’s salary for the 2017 fiscal year was budgeted at about $147,290, not including benefits, according to village of Cary documents.

“We will absolutely fill the position,” Kownick said. “The direction that we’re going to go is yet to be determined.”

If the board approves his appointment, the new member will serve the remainder of Yensen’s term, which ends in 2019.

LAKE IN THE HILLS – Lake in the Hills has a vacant spot on its Board of Trustees after Trustee Paula Yensen won a seat on the McHenry County Board, according to unofficial vote totals.

Yensen was first elected to the Lake in the Hills Board of Trustees in 2001, and served two terms before being elected to the McHenry County Board in 2008 and 2012, according to the village’s website. She was elected again as a Lake in the Hills trustee in May 2015.

At the Board of Trustees meeting Thursday, Yensen said she would always be an advocate for people in the village.

“We will continue to work together, and I will be here on a regular basis to let you know what is happening in county government,” Yensen said.

Yensen also encouraged the board to make the village a welcoming place for all residents, and recruit a board member who doesn’t look like the rest of the board, which is made up of all

Officials said the collision caused the Dodge to be pushed into the westbound lane of Route 176, where it then hit a 1999 Peterbilt traveling west. The Peterbilt rolled over, skidded across the westbound lane and collided with several trees on the side of the road.

The driver of the Dodge Dart was taken to Centegra Hospital – Woodstock for precautionary reasons and has since been released, and the driver of the Pontiac was taken to Centegra Hospital – Huntley for precautionary reasons and has since been released.

WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County Coroner’s Office on Thursday released the name of the semitractor-trailer driver killed in the Wednesday morning crash on Route 176 near Woodstock.

Dr. Anne Majewski said the driver of the overturned Peterbilt semitractor-trailer was Barry G. Serio, 55, of Crystal Lake.

Investigators said Serio was driving westbound on Route 176 near Franklinville Road when he swerved to avoid an eastbound vehicle involved in another crash that had traveled into his lane.

Serio was pronounced dead at the scene at 7:55 a.m. Woodstock and Marengo-Union Fire and Rescue Units responded to the scene.

An autopsy performed today in the coroner’s office revealed that Serio died from blunt force injuries to the head, Majewski said. The McHenry County Sheriff’s Police Accident Investigation Unit also is investigating the crash.

to be annexed or have said they would not fight involuntary annexation.

Besides a fairness issue when it comes to regulations and taxes, especially to property owners who already have annexed, the city wants to avoid situations such as nonconforming structures being built in city limits.

More video gambling

Council members on a 5-2 vote also granted a video gambling permit to Buffalo Wings and Rings, 1520 Carlemont Drive. The permit is the 11th granted by the city since the council overturned its ban on video gaming earlier this year.

CRYSTAL LAKE – The City Council annexed a well-known banquet hall into the city, and without a planned restriction on its liquor license.

In a series of 7-0 votes, the council on Tuesday evening annexed D’Andrea Banquets & Conference Center, 4419 Route 14, into city limits. The business, located just east of the intersections of Routes 14 and 31, was under county jurisdiction and was a pocket of unincorporated land surrounded by the city.

One of those votes approved the transfer of D’Andrea’s county-issued

liquor license over to the city, but without a limit of 10 events a year that are open to the public, provided advance written notice is given to city staff.

Mayor Aaron Shepley told D’Andrea attorney Jim Bishop, who did not ask for the restriction to be lifted, that it was not necessary.

“It’s a lot of paperwork we shouldn’t need to go through,” Shepley said.

City leaders in recent years have prioritized annexing pocket or “island” properties that are surrounded by the municipality but are under county zoning. About 10 such pockets now exist in the city, and most of their owners have either voluntarily offered

The city’s ordinance, which is tougher than those of surrounding local governments, allows establishments that serve liquor on the premises to have up to three machines, fewer than the five allowed under state law.

Establishments cannot have exterior signage advertising video gambling, and neither interior signs nor the machines themselves can be visible from the outside. The city charges two annual fees totaling $1,100, plus a $500 fee per machine, and applicants also must sign an agreement promising not to go to court to get the city’s ordinance softened. Companies that provide and service the machines likewise must pay a $1,000 annual fee to do business in the city.

The two opposing votes came from council members Cathy Ferguson and Brett Hopkins, who oppose video gambling.

Continued from page A3 coach. “The thing about it is, this team … they have each other’s backs. Many of them have played together since they were little.”

By midweek, blue- and gold-painted business windows cheered the team’s success throughout town, while banners in the high school cafeteria proclaimed Skyhawk Nation and teased the outcome of Friday’s game.

Between Cubs and Blackhawks symbols, the lighted sign at Raymond’s Bowl blares “GOOD LUCK SKYHAWKS.” Pride in the team led by coach Dan DeBoeuf is on the lips of just about everyone.

“I think it’s wonderful,” said Angelo’s grocery store employee Cathy Ritter of Pistakee Highlands.

It’s a sentiment shared by Kelly Erk, a cashier at Angelo’s, and mother of a couple of members of the marching band, Kyle and Joseph Erk. “These kids have worked really hard,” she said, noting that the players are not just solid athletes, but they’re also good, kind young men. “When they walk past the band, they thank the band members.”

Erk said she’s been to most home games this season, and knows she’ll be there tonight, along with her husband, Mike, and their other sons, Joshua and David.

Village President Ed Hettermann and board member John Huemann said it’s thrilling that the football players have come this far. The credit, they said, extends beyond the talented guys wearing the helmets.

“Successful teams are made up of a lot of components,” Huemann said. “The students, the athletes, the parents, the school district, the community … and when you can get them all going in the same direction, wow, it’s really special.”

STATE Officials investigate cause of deadly gas explosion “The impact of this blast was tremendous and that caused some serious, serious damage.”

The ASSOCIATED PRESS CANTON – Authorities on Thursday were investigating the cause of a gas explosion that rocked downtown homes and businesses in a central Illinois community, shattering glass and cracking interior walls in nearby buildings and killing one person and injuring several others.

The blast Wednesday evening in Canton, which is 150 miles southwest of Chicago, happened while utility workers were trying to fix a gas leak that a contractor apparently caused while installing a fiber-optic wire, officials said.

“The impact of this blast was tremendous and that caused some serious, serious damage,” the city’s police chief, Rick Nichols, said at a news conference Thursday.

More than 50 buildings were damaged, including three that were condemned.

Ameren Illinois said its crew had turned off the gas and was beginning to make repairs when the explosion happened. Nichols said investigators are still trying to determine what ignited

Illinois workers protest Rauner’s planned labor deal

SPRINGFIELD – State workers across Illinois put pressure on Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner to negotiate in demonstrations at 120 worksites.

The demonstrations Thursday were organized by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which represents about 38,000 state employees.

In Springfield, workers chanted “2-4-6-8, Rauner should negotiate.” In downtown Rockford, about 75 workers picketed.

A state labor board ruled Tuesday that contract negotiations are stalled.

On Wednesday, Rauner’s administration said it intends to implement a 40-hour workweek, instead of 37.5 hours, and a merit-pay system as soon as possible.

2 men accused of stealing from state treasurer’s vault

SPRINGFIELD – A former employee of the Illinois State Treasurer’s Office and his friend are accused of stealing jewelry and gold from the agency’s unclaimed property vault.

Sangamon County State’s Attorney John Milhiser said former employee Roosevelt Smith and Ademola Adeniji face felony theft charges.

Milhiser said the treasurer’s office discovered the thefts after upgrading security measures and finding that items had gone missing from 2012 to this year.

According to WTAX radio, Smith is being held on $500,000 bail, and Adeniji was released on bond and is due in court Dec. 29.

Smith worked in the treasurer’s office for 12 years.

Ill. unemployment rate rises to 5.6 percent in October

CHICAGO – The Illinois Department of Employment Security said the statewide unemployment rate edged up to 5.6 percent in October despite a modest increase in jobs.

The department said Thursday in its monthly report on statewide unemployment that the jobless rate increased from 5.5 percent in September.

The national unemployment rate in October was 4.9 percent.

The increase in Illinois’ unemployment rate ended a five-month run during which it either dropped or held steady.

According to the state report, Illinois added a net 2,200 jobs in October.

Professional and business services firms, government and manufacturing all added jobs for the month.

Construction jobs fell by 3,300 in October and trade, transportation and utility companies lost 1,000 jobs.

Department Director Jeff Mays said Illinois’ recovery from the recession continues to be slow.

“Everyone jumped,” she said. “The door where I was sitting blew open.”

Among buildings damaged by the blast was a historic century Opera House that now houses offices; it was among three buildings condemned because they are beyond repair, Nichols said.

The police chief said officials hope to shrink the closed area to one block around the blast, but that it can only be done once it has been deemed safe.

Mayor Jeff Fritz praised first responders for their work.

“We will get through this and will be a stronger Canton,” Fritz said.

Schock’s arraignment for corruption set for Dec. 12

SPRINGFIELD – Former Illinois Congressman Aaron Schock will be arraigned next month on charges alleging that he schemed to profit personally from his government job.

Schock was scheduled to be arraigned Nov. 21 on theft of government funds, fraud, making false statements and filing false tax returns charges.

However, Schock’s attorneys asked for a delay, saying an arraignment that day would interfere with a planned international business trip by the Peoria Republican.

U.S. District Judge Sue E. Myerscough on Wednesday rescheduled Schock’s arraignment to Dec. 12.

Federal prosecutors did not object to the change.

The 52-page indictment handed up last week alleged that Schock spent government funds to redecorate his Washington office and asked the U.S. House to reimburse him for nearly $30,000 worth of camera equipment. It also accused him of running up a $140,000 mileage tab over six years.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Court blocks release of Netflix series’ inmate

MADISON, Wis. – A Wisconsin prison inmate whose case was featured in the Netflix series “Making a Murderer” will stay behind bars while state attorneys appeal a decision overturning his conviction, a panel of federal appellate judges ruled Thursday.

Brendan Dassey’s release from prison appeared imminent right up until the three-judge panel from the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago issued its decision. Television crews and reporters were staking out the prison in Portage where Dassey is being held, waiting for him to walk out at any minute, when the ruling came down around midday.

Kaine has been a vocal critic of Trump’s appointment of Steve Bannon as a senior adviser, saying Bannon’s ties to white nationalism and anti-Semitism disqualify him from a senior role in the White House.

Source: Trump offers Flynn national security adviser job The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – President-elect Donald Trump offered former military intelligence chief Michael Flynn the job of national security adviser as he began to build out his national security team Thursday, a senior Trump official said.

The move came as Trump made his most direct foray into foreign policy since the election, meeting with Japan’s prime minister.

Flynn, who served as the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, has advised Trump on national security issues for months. As national security adviser, he would work in the White House and have frequent access to the president. The post does not require Senate confirmation.

The official wouldn’t say whether Flynn had accepted the job, which left open the possibility that the arrangement was not finalized.

The official was not authorized to discuss the offer publicly and insisted on anonymity.

Flynn, who turns 58 in December, built a reputation in the Army as an astute intelligence professional and a straight talker. He retired in 2014 and has been a fierce critic of President Barack Obama’s White House and Pentagon, taking issue with the administration’s approach to global affairs and fighting Islamic State militants.

Trump is a foreign policy novice and his early moves on national security are being closely watched by U.S allies and adversaries alike. He’s said to be considering a range of officials with varying degrees of experience to lead the State Department and Pentagon.

The president-elect held his first face-to-face

meeting with a world leader since winning the presidential election, huddling privately with Japan’s Shinzo Abe. While Trump made no comments after the meeting, Abe said the president-elect was “a leader in whom I can have great confidence.”

Trump also consulted with former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and sat down with South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, a potential contender to lead the State Department.

In Washington, Vice President-elect Mike Pence huddled with Republican leaders in Congress. He then met with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Chuck Schumer, the newly elected leader of the Senate Democrats, seeking to convey respect as Democrats prepare for Republican rule of both chambers and the White House for the first time in a decade.

“We look forward to finding ways that we can find common ground and move the country forward,” Pence said outside Schumer’s Senate office.

In a separate gesture of reconciliation with establishment Republicans, Trump planned to meet with 2012 Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, who lambasted Trump as a “con man” and a “fraud” in a stinging speech last March. Trump responded by repeatedly referring to Romney as a “loser.”

The two began mending fences after Trump’s victory when Romney called with congratulations. They are to meet this weekend, a transition official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to discuss Trump’s schedule publicly.

Campaign manager Kellyanne Conway said they still were “working on” the meeting.

Obama says Trump must ‘stand up’ to Russia

By JOSH LEDERMAN and DAVID RISING The Associated Press

BERLIN – President Barack Obama prodded Donald Trump on Thursday to take a tougher approach toward Russia, urging the president-elect to “stand up” to Moscow when it violates global norms. The Kremlin accused Obama of trying to lock in bad relations before Trump takes office.

In Europe for his last time as president, Obama said he doesn’t expect Trump to mirror his own strategy on Russia, and hopes his successor will work constructively with the superpower where appropriate. Yet he insisted the U.S. mustn’t gloss over deep disagreements over Syria, Ukraine and basic democratic values.

“My hope is that he does not simply take a realpolitik approach,” Obama said, using a German term for a foreign policy driven by expediency. He said he hopes the businessman won’t cut deals with Russia if it hurts other countries or “just do whatever is convenient at the time.”

Obama’s remarks in a news conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel marked his most explicit attempt since the election to influence the policies Trump will pursue as president. Obama has privately urged Trump not to obliterate the efforts of the last eight years, but in public he has tried to avoid boxing in his successor.

Yet Trump’s unexpected victory has put Obama in the unwelcome position of having to reassure foreign leaders that Trump won’t follow through on alarming positions he staked out in his campaign, such as the notion the U.S. might not defend its NATO allies.

NATO members and other European countries are worried that under Trump, the U.S. will stop trying to police Russia’s behavior the way it has under Obama.

Most concerning to U.S. allies are Trump’s effusive comments about Russian President Vladimir Putin, one of the first world leaders he spoke to after winning the election. The Kremlin has said Putin and Trump agreed in that call to try to fully normalize U.S.-Russia relations, an alarming prospect for Russia’s neighbors who fear the U.S. will let sanctions on Moscow lapse and acquiesce to Russia’s behavior in Ukraine and Syria.

Putin foreign policy adviser Yuri Ushakov told Russian news agencies that Obama’s administration was “doing everything it can to drive bilateral ties into such a deadlock that would make it difficult for a new team to get them out from, if it wishes to do so.”

The White House declined to comment on that accusation.

Ushakov also said that Trump’s call

U.S. President Barack Obama speaks Thursday during a news conference after a meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in the chancellery in Berlin, Germany. Germany is the last European stop of Obama’s final tour abroad as U.S. president. with Putin had revealed a “shared desire” to fight terrorism and collaborate on Syria. Obama’s administration accuses Russia of prolonging Syria’s civil war by intervening militarily to prop up President Bashar Assad.

Germany’s Merkel, for her part, said she was approaching the incoming Trump administration with “an open mind” and was encouraged that the presidential process in the U.S. was “working smoothly” so far.

Obama’s closest partner on the world stage, Merkel has been instrumental in Obama’s efforts to coordinate U.S. and European approaches toward Russia, as well as other conflicts including the Syria crisis and the fight against the Islamic State group. Thursday’s meeting was the last for Obama – who leaves office in January – and Merkel, who declined to say whether she plans to run for re-election.

As for the limit on U.S. presidents serving two terms, Merkel said simply, “It’s a tough rule: Eight years and that’s it.”

Obama, speaking broadly about his own successor, said he was “cautiously optimistic” about Trump. He said that “solemn responsibilities” and “extraordinary demands” of the presidency tend to demand a level of seriousness, implying Trump might rein in some of the bellicose statements of the

campaign trail.

“If you’re not serious about the job, then you probably won’t be there very long because it will expose problems,” Obama said.

With Obama leaving office Jan. 20, the U.S. is stepping up efforts to deter Russia from using cyberattacks to meddle in the United States.

The Obama administration has been incensed by Russia’s suspected hacking of U.S. political groups.

Obama said he’d told Putin that “there has been very clear proof that they have engaged in cyberattacks.”

A senior U.S. official said the administration had taken the notable step of complaining to Russia through a secure, round-the-clock “hotline” originally setup to avert a nuclear war. The U.S. relayed its complaint on Oct. 31 – a week before Election Day – said the official, who requested anonymity to discuss private diplomatic

Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen testifies Thursday on Capitol Hill in Washington before the Joint Economic Committee. Yellen sketched a picture of an improving U.S. economy and said “the case for an increase” in interest rates has strengthened. The Fed is widely expected to raise rates when it meets in mid-December. on notice that a rate hike is likely to occur at the Fed’s last meeting of the year Dec. 13 and 14. They noted that she dismissed a suggestion that increased market uncertainty after Trump’s election might be cause for a delay.

WASHINGTON – Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen appears unruffled by incoming President Donald Trump’s victory last week.

Her remarks to Congress on Thursday suggest that the central bank is on track to raise interest rates at its meeting in December, one month before Trumps takes office. She said she has no plans to step down before her four-year term ends in 2018, reiterated the Fed’s political independence and vigorously defended tougher bank regulations established in the wake of the financial crisis.

An improving U.S. economy has bolstered the case for raising interest rates, Yellen told Congress’ Joint Economic Committee. Economic data since Fed policymakers gathered in early November reinforced her view that the economy is making progress toward the Fed’s goals on employment and inflation. She said that at the meeting, she and her colleagues believed that the case for a rate increase “had continued to strengthen and that such an increase could well become appropriate relatively soon.”

Analysts viewed Yellen’s comments as an effort to put financial markets

len said it was “fully my intention” to remain as Fed chairwoman until her four-year term ends Feb. 3, 2018. She said she could not imagine any circumstance that would cause her to leave early, addressing speculation that she might step down once Trump takes office, given his critical comments of her during the election campaign.

The Fed raised its key interest rate in December 2015 and projected that it could raise rates as many as four times in 2016. But it deferred as the U.S. economy went through a prolonged softpatch. The rate has remained in a range of 0.25 percent to 0.5 percent for the entire year. The rate had been at a record low near zero for seven years.

Economists are forecasting that the Fed will raise rates by a quarter-point in December and then will boost rates two more times in 2017. Yellen stressed in her testimony that the slow recovery and absence of inflation pressures should allow the Fed to move gradually in raising its key rate, the federal funds rate.

“Gradual increases in the federal funds rate will likely be sufficient to get to a neutral policy stance over the next few years,” Yellen said, referring to the point where the funds rate is neither promoting economic growth nor slowing growth.

ANOTHER VIEW

A stand against hate The morning after Donald Trump’s election as president, a student at Baylor University had a nasty, hate-filled encounter on her way to class.

A native of Zambia, she was called the n-word by another student, who shoved her off the sidewalk and said he was “just trying to make America great again,” the signature slogan of Trump’s campaign.

What is perhaps most appalling about the incident is that it was not isolated.

Rather, it was part of a rising number of acts of intolerance against minorities, women and religious groups that have followed Trump’s election.

In Michigan, middle school students chanted “build a wall” at Latino classmates; in West Virginia, a small-town mayor cheered the likening of the first lady to an ape (the mayor has since resigned); in New York, a “Make America White Again” sign with a swastika was graffitied on a softball dugout wall; in Georgia, a Muslim teacher reported receiving an anonymous note saying her “headscarf isn’t allowed anymore” and telling her to “hang yourself with it”; and in Silver Spring, Maryland, a church banner advertising a Spanish-language service was defaced with the words “Trump nationwhites only.”

Organizations that track hate crimes have reported a marked uptick in these unsettling incidents, so it would be easy to go on. But we think it more instructive to focus on how the Baylor community reacted to that dreadful assault on Natasha Nkhama. #IWalkWithNatasha was the Twitter hashtag that rallied students, teachers and school administrators – some 300 in all – to accompany Nkhama on her walk to class. “Acts of violence and insensitivity have no place,” said the university’s vice president for student life.

Trump should pay heed. These hateful acts are the work of a tiny minority of his supporters, but they have been emboldened by the ugly rhetoric of his presidential campaign. It is his responsibility – not, as his campaign manager has foolishly suggested, President Barack Obama’s or Hillary Clinton’s – to do as much as he can to discourage such actions. Granted, his appointment of media mogul Stephen Bannon to a top White House job makes that all the more difficult. So does his mild response when asked about the threats and slurs in Sunday’s “60 Minutes” interview. Only when he was pressed could he muster an “I am so saddened to hear that. ... Stop it.”

Trump promised in his victory speech to be a president for all Americans. His wife has said she wants to make fighting hate and bullying her main priority as first lady. They need not wait until Inauguration Day to start living up to those promises.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Trump’s free-trade disagreements Come Jan. 20, President-elect Donald J. Trump will start carrying out his agenda. How does he expect to turn his promises into policy? Do his plans make sense?

If not, what should he do? Finally, given the political realities of Washington, what’s most likely to happen?

What he says he’ll do:

Trump says it’s over for unfair trade. He promises to kill the Trans-Pacific Partnership and renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement. He says he’ll confront China’s trade offenses with “every lawful presidential power,” bringing cases at the World Trade Organization, declaring China a currency manipulator and, if necessary, imposing punitive tariffs. He’s said little about the proposed U.S.-EU trade deal, the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, whose prospects

were poor to begin with.

Does that make sense?

Free-trade pacts promote competition and growth, and raise living standards overall. TPP and NAFTA are complicated agreements, years in the making and not perfect in every respect -- but they serve U.S. interests. China used to keep its currency undervalued to promote its exports, but that’s no longer true. Trade does cause dislocation and makes some workers worse off, but the harm caused by the trade wars Trump might provoke would be vastly greater.

What he ought to do:

He should let TPP should go ahead, leave NAFTA alone, and not pick trade fights with China or other partners. The best way to protect the victims of competition is with policies to support incomes and encourage investment

in skills: more generous wage subsidies (such as the earned-income tax credit), better schools and vocational training, more help for workers relocating, lower barriers to small-business expansion (such as overly strict occupational licensing), and a stronger safety net when all else fails.

The most likely outcome:

It won’t be easy for Trump to walk back from his militant position. Checks and balances won’t help, because in trade there aren’t many. On the other hand, carrying out his threats -once it’s time to face the economic consequences -- will be hard as well. Cosmetic adjustments sold as big new deals and strong words with no action might be possible, with little harm done.

The smart domestic-policy agenda will continue to be neglected, because it always is.

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.

VIEWS Nancy L. Cohen

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton the day after conceding the election to Donald Trump. can women.

Nationally, 90 percent of Republicans and 81 percent of evangelical or born-again Christians voted for Trump, despite the speculation they would quietly cast their vote against the interloper. GOP women supported Trump at the same level as men. These reliably Republican voters weighed their reservations about Trump against the alternative – a liberal, prochoice Democrat whom they intensely dislike – and stuck with the GOP standard-bearer. Party, ideology and policy overcame any gender solidarity. That’s not a surprise.

Make no mistake. At the end of the day, Republicans elected Trump. Without loyal support from Republicans and white Protestant evangelicals, Trump could not have pulled off his upset.

Yet he needed more to win. Trump found his path to victory with the help of white working-class voters in blue states. Most dramatically, 72 percent of non-college-educated white men voted for the male candidate in this race. Of course, Obama lost them too in 2012, and Democrats have performed poorly with this demographic for decades. But Clinton lost them by a 49-point margin, far worse than Obama fared against Romney.

But this, too, is no smoking gun that sexism decided this election.

There is some evidence that gendered views influenced their vote.

Two-thirds of Trump supporters and Republicans think American society “has become too soft and feminine,” according to surveys done by PRRI. Another pre-election analysis, by ABC, found that seeing too little influence for whites and men, and too much influence for minorities and women, predicted support for Trump.

As this latter study suggests, a closer look reveals a much more complex portrait of anxieties about immigration, class, race and culture among Trump voters.

Nearly two-thirds of Trump supporters, according to a PRRI poll taken during the primaries, said they were bothered when “I come into contact with an immigrant who speaks little or no English.” A Pew survey found that 75 percent of white non-college Republicans and Republican-leaners favor building a wall along the entire U.S.-Mexico border. In exit polls, Trump voters rated the economy as poor and their own financial situation as worse today than a year ago. “High levels of racial resentment,” according to one study, correlated with support for Trump. Seventy-two percent of Trump supporters, in PRRI’s American Values Survey say “American society and way of life has changed for the worse since the 1950s.”

Undoubtedly sexism is in the mix for some of the men in Trump’s world; it was on bold display at his rallies.

• Friday, November 18, 2016

To some, it seems an open-and-shut case that a woman faces an insuperable double standard on the road to the White House. “America was never ready for a woman president,” one headline declared; Clinton’s defeat “is what misogyny looks like,” a Guardian columnist lamented; her own running mate, after the loss, described the United States as a nation that “has made it so uniquely difficult for a woman to make it into federal office.” No, America is not ready, not now and not in the foreseeable future. After all, Americans twice elected an African-American president, but Hillary Clinton, an inordinately qualified woman, came up short. Only 41 percent of men voted for her. And just look at the sexism and misogyny of this election.

But Clinton did not lose because of sexism, and future female candidates for president are unlikely to, either.

Let’s start with a basic fact: Clinton won the national popular vote, and but for the electoral college, America would have its first female president. It seems fair to conclude that groups voting for her by large margins view women as qualified to be president. According to exit polls, African Americans, Latinos and Asian Americans – notably, between six to eight out of 10 nonwhite men – favored Clinton over Trump. In addition, Jews, people of other non-Christian faiths, those with no religion and Christians who are not evangelical or born again went for Clinton by margins of 25 to 47 points. Clinton mostly held the Obama coalition but failed to excite it; lower turnout for her played a role in her electoral-college defeat.

For those who see Clinton’s defeat as a sign that Americans are resistant to a female president, the relevant question is whether those who chose Trump over Clinton were motivated primarily by gender bias – or something else.

The first clue that sexism isn’t the prime culprit is the fact that nationwide, 53 percent of white women favored Trump. Given some of Trump’s statements and behaviors toward women, that seems shocking, until you consider the role partisanship plays in American politics.

One, a majority of white women typically votes Republican, albeit by far smaller margins than white men do.

Two, evangelical or born-again white Christians overwhelmingly identify and vote Republican. And this group includes 27 percent of all white Ameri-

But this election was not primarily a referendum on whether America is ready to elect a woman to the presidency. Hillary Clinton brought unique talents and experience to this race, as well as distinct liabilities. Fatally, she was the all-too-familiar face of the establishment in a burn-the-house-down moment.

The next potential female president will step into an arena in which her gender won’t be irrelevant, but it won’t be determinative. Recent research powerfully indicates that, today, women do not lose elections because of sexism. Political scientists are currently finding little evidence that gender bias significantly influences how we vote. Women win elections at the same rates as men. The research shows that partisanship trumps gender – as it did in the 2016 presidential race.

Granted, the presidency is the highest hurdle to surmount and hard to compare with any other election.

Still, there’s good cause to doubt the conventional wisdom that it’s harder for women to win an executive than a legislative election because of gendered stereotypes about power. In a largescale survey by the Pew Research Center, when asked whether women were better at legislative or executive roles, more than 8 in 10 respondents saw no difference between how capable women were in the two types of office.

Nor did they see any difference in how capable men were in these different roles.

What about the double bind – the walk on the tightrope of likability and strength – that many pointed to as a key source of Clinton’s low approval rating? Political scientist Deborah Jordan Brooks, in award-winning research, found that voters did not view female candidates who demonstrated toughness to be uncaring or unlikable.

Nor did they penalize them for being tough. Indeed, acting tough outside the bounds of conventional femininity boosted women’s favorability ratings, and tough women were viewed as more likely to be effective presidents.

Let me be clear. Certainly female candidates are subjected to sexist attacks, and politics is a gendered arena.

But for the future of feminism, and for girls particularly, it’s equally important that we do not learn the wrong lesson from Clinton’s defeat. Now is the time to pass the baton, not throw in the towel. More women have to step up to run for office. They should do so with confidence that sexism will not mow them down.

BUSINESS A hostel in Sarajevo offers guests a taste of life in war

By AIDA CERKEZ

The Associated Press SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina – A hostel in Bosnia is offering visitors a unique experience: The opportunity to live like civilians in a war zone.

But at the Sarajevo War Hostel, guests have the luxury of knowing they won’t be killed, starved or lose family or friends. And unlike the Sarajevans who actually endured the 1992-’95 war, the visitors can leave any time.

Those who check in to the War Hostel are greeted by the owner wearing a helmet and a flak jacket. They get to sleep in rooms with only one bulb on the ceiling, running on a car battery.

The plastic sheets on the windows are just like the ones the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees handed out to Sarajevans so they could replace window glass shattered by bombs.

At night, they use candles to move around the hostel and to read by. The walls are plastered with wartime newspaper articles – most of them from The Associated Press – depicting the daily struggle in besieged Sarajevo.

At the War Hostel, visitors quickly discover it is one thing to watch people surviving wars on TV. But it is really something else to spend the night on a sponge mattress on the floor, covered with military blankets, and in the darkness listen to the sound of exploding bombs outside. A tape of the bombs plays all night long.

On Saturday, Bosnian Arijan Kurbasic, known as Zero One as the owner of the War Hostel in Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, stands next to a wall in one of the hostel rooms. The War Hostel offers visitors a unique opportunity to live like civilians in a war zone, but with the luxury of knowing they won’t be killed, starved or lose family or friends. ories of wartime and the postwar era, and tells them how wars can influence people’s lives forever. His birth name is Arijan Kurbasic, but he calls himself Zero One, the wartime code name used by his father, who was a soldier in the Bosnian Army. The code name conceals his ethnic background.

“I just want to be identified as a human being as this was the most important thing to be during the war.

Either you are one or you are not,” he explained. “Zero One I chose to honor my father.”

The war unfolded after Yugoslavia fell apart and its republics declared independence one after the other. Nationalist politicians were determined to divide the new country of Bosnia and Herzegovina along ethnic lines and pitted the country’s Muslim Bosniaks, Roman Catholic Croats and Christian Orthodox Serbs against each other.

However, Sarajevo, as well as other parts of Bosnia, were ethnically diverse and many locals rejected the nationalist plans – for which they paid a high price.

The Serb siege of Sarajevo went on

for 46 months – precisely 1,425 days – longer than the siege of Leningrad, now St. Petersburg, during World War II. Sarajevo’s 380,000 people were left without food, electricity, water or heating, as they hid from snipers and the average 330 shells a day that smashed into the city.

More than 100,000 people were killed during the Bosnian war, 11,541 of them in Sarajevo.

Guests appreciate the intensity of the hostel simulation.

“The best way to learn about something is usually experience,” said Andrew Burns, 21, a hostel guest from the U.S. “It provides emotions behind events. I can read a textbook all I want, but most of that information escapes from the mind immediately. But when I come here and I see people who talk about their experiences, that makes it real, that makes me want to learn about it, to try to help, try to love.”

Zero One also offers guests a chance to watch documentaries about the siege, and can organize tours of the city’s war sites, such as the front lines and a tunnel Sarajevans dug under the airport runway to connect the city with the outside world.

“They come here, they experience this and it changes their perspectives,” Zero One said of his guests. “For one or two nights, to live like this, it changes their views and then they appreciate their own life, they appreciate water, they appreciate comfort, they appreciate a bed, they appreciate everything else. It really gives them a different perspective and that is the whole point of this.”

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 2016

LOS ANGELES – The “Duck Dynasty” family said its A&E series will end after this season.

Their announcement was paired with Wednesday’s debut episode of the show’s 11th season. “Duck Dynasty,” one of reality TV’s biggest hits, starred a successful Louisiana duck call-making family, the Robertsons. They told viewers it was a family decision to make this season the final chapter.

In 2013, “Duck Dynasty” ran into controversy. Phil Robertson, the family patriarch, was suspended by A&E after GQ magazine quoted him declaring that gays are sinners and blacks were happy under Jim Crow laws.

“Muhammad Ali: A Force for Change” opened in September to honor the legacy of the boxing champ, social activist and world ambassador whose contributions transcended the sports world.

“Every professional athlete, regardless of race and gender, owes a huge debt of gratitude to Muhammad Ali,” James said. “His legacy deserves to be studied and revered by every generation. I am honored to partner with the Smithsonian to celebrate one of the most influential figures in our nation’s history who, along with Jackie Robinson and Jesse Owens, used the power of sports to advance our civil rights.”

James’ business partner, Maverick Carter, also is contributing to the donation.

“I am overwhelmed by the incredible generosity LeBron James has shown,” Ali’s wife, Lonnie, said. “This exhibit will enable children visiting the Smithsonian to learn more about Muhammad’s work outside of the ring, particularly his humanitarian work and stance on social justice for all people.”

The exhibit includes artifacts such as Ali’s headgear and the training robe worn at Dundee’s Fifth Street Gym. It celebrates the late champion’s achievements in community activism, resistance, politics, spirituality and culture.

Ali died in June at age 74.

Morgan Freeman is adding another lifetime achievement prize to his mantelpiece.

AARP said Thursday the actor will receive its Movies for Grownups Career Achievement Award at a gala ceremony next year.

The 79-year-old actor has already received the American Film Institute’s Life Achievement Award, the Golden Globes’ Cecil B. DeMille Award and a National Medal of the Arts from President Barack Obama.

“At a certain point in life, if you’ve had some success, awards start to fall from the sky. But this one really means something,” Freeman said in a statement. “I started my movie career at 50 and some of the best years happened since then.”

Kickstarter for Scarecrow costume falls short

WASHINGTON – Donors flocked like flying monkeys to the Smithsonian’s crowd-funding campaign to preserve a pair of ruby slippers from “The Wizard of Oz.” But they weren’t as generous when it comes to maintaining the Scarecrow costume from the beloved movie.

A Kickstarter campaign for the slippers and the costume ended at midnight Wednesday, with donors pledging $349,000. The original goal was $300,000, and that total will go to the slippers. The National Museum of American History sought another $85,000 to preserve the Scarecrow costume, but that goal fell short.

Museum spokeswoman Laura Duff said the Scarecrow costume will still be pre-

served. She said some donors gave directly to the museum instead of pledging to Kickstarter, and the museum is “committed to raising the additional funds necessary to complete the conservation.”

Property where Johnny, June Cash lived up for sale

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The famous Tennessee lakeside property where Johnny and June Carter Cash spent much of their 35-year marriage has been listed for sale.

According to a news release on Thursday, the owner James Gresham is selling the 4-acre property in Hendersonville about 20 miles northeast of Nashville with the hopes that the new owner would preserve the Cash legacy. No listing price has been set.

Unfortunately, their home was destroyed in a fire in 2007, but the property includes a pool, a dock, stone walls and a three-car garage that has been turned into an apartment.

PARENTING

Savor the last year of family dinners

By AVIVA GOLDFARB The Washington Post

“Mom, are you or dad going to be home for dinner tonight?” our 17-yearold high school senior asked me. Did I notice a tone in her voice that was preparing for disappointment, or was that the sound of my own guilt?

Lately, work and social events had kept me out more than usual in the evening, and I had been missing too many family dinners. On top of my husband’s more demanding work schedule last month, I realized Celia, who was in the midst of college application stress and a minor health challenge, was feeling our absence and the absence of our nightly routine.

Family dinners at our house are central – and centering. In the mornings one or more of us race out of the house by 7:15, exchanging few words.

After school, my husband and I work and Celia often has ultimate Frisbee practice, homework or other commitments. But at 6 p.m. most days, I am in the kitchen pouring my energy into making dinner for our family. Family dinner is the heart of our family time.

At almost exactly 7 p.m. we sit down together to eat. Even our 11-year-old yellow Labrador, Suerte, takes his foot-warming spot under the table.

Family dinner is one of the few times when we have a chance to connect and converse with each other. We keep the topics low stress – no college app or test talk at the table, for example, unless Celia brings it up.

Afterward, we share the cleanup

the shock. I’ve been saying yes to more evening activities because subconsciously, I believe, I wanted to reassure myself I would have plenty to keep me busy and stimulated even after Celia leaves, in the misguided hope I will feel her absence less acutely.

As I write this, the aroma of a whole chicken and vegetables simmering in the slow cooker for tonight’s chicken soup, I am filled with gratitude Celia spoke up when she did. This week, I will be home for dinner every night.

If Celia makes other plans one night, I may consider getting out of the house, too. But if she craves her spot at our little wooden table, Andrew and I will happily settle into our chairs – he to Photo provided by Aviva Goldfarb via The Washington Post her right, me across the table like Celia and Andrew at mealtime; when dinners have been a centerpiece of family life, kids always. leaving for college create spaces that are hard to fill.

Her son’s letter, which he dictated to Sahebjami, read: “Dear President-elect Trump, please be a good president. Be kind to all people. Some people in my family are a special religion and they are not bad guys.”

Spurred by this, Sahebjami consulted with friends who have children about posting such letters in a private, online group.

“This is an opportunity to seize and teach our children how to be articulate, productive communicators,” Sahebjami said.

However, she emphasized she wanted the Facebook group to be a “multi-partisan, global grass-roots

campaign” that offers parents a chance to turn a divisive election into a “teachable moment.”

The rules were simple: Letters must be written by children younger than 18.

They should be positive, nonpartisan and kind in tone.

Sahebjami encouraged parents to take pictures of their children’s letters and share them on social media using the hashtag #kidsletterstotrump.

“The power of this movement comes from the kindness and unity we can teach our children,” Sahebjami wrote. “This isn’t about policies – it’s about high standards of basic human kindness that ALL parents can get behind.” The Facebook group had nearly 9,000 members – and counting – a week after the election.

By MEGHAN LEAHY The Washington Post

My daughter is only 18 months old, but your recent comments [in your online chat] about the child being in charge really hit home. She is super mommy-focused and loudly opinionated. At this age, I know separation anxiety can be high, so I don’t want to push her away. But she is constantly trying to control my every move. Mostly, I am just supposed to always hold her. But often there are demands on top of that. And sometimes I need my hands. She is much more subdued with my husband if I am not around. And she does great at day care. Any advice?

remind you nothing lasts forever. This is a stage, and you and she will move through it. I can (almost) promise it.

Here are some ideas to lessen the pain of this stage: 1. Take some things off your plate. For example, can you make most of your meals simple? I’m thinking crockpots or rotisserie chicken types of meals.

This will free you up from chopping and sautéing and give you more time to sit with your daughter.

2. Carve out moments for special time.

Simply put, you are going to put everything down (especially any technology), set a timer and lie on the floor with your daughter. You can roughhouse, read books, play with toys, pretend to be animals, go outside and run. It really doesn’t matter. All that matters is you are focused on her, you are smiling and having fun, and you are keeping boundaries and routine.

3. Don’t be afraid to put on “Sesame Street” if you feel her neediness is becoming too much for you. I would rather have

you snuggle her on the couch and watch one episode of “Elmo’s World” than push her off you for an hour.

4. Use bath and bedtime as a way to connect. Use relaxing smells, laugh and

play quiet games in the tub, massage her feet, and really cuddle her up.

Despite all these lovely strategies,

your daughter still will cry for you.

This is part of the gig. Our job is not to stop the crying, per se, but to roll with it in a loving way. The crying is a sign of adaption, which is to say the brain is accepting what it cannot change. The only caveat here is if she panics and becomes hysterical. This is a sign of true disturbance, which is not healthy for her brain and her emotions. So allow her to cry. You can mumble sweet nothings or sing to her, and you can return to her as soon as you can. There is little difference between what you are doing whether you are resentful or peaceful; the difference is how it feels.

If you are resentful because she is too attached, your body will be tense, and your eyes will not be soft. If you understand this is normal and you can handle it, your posture will be loving, your jaw relaxed, your mouth smiling and your eyes shining toward her. This second way of being is deeply felt by an 18-month-old. She is a sponge for your energy, so take very good care of yourself so you can take very good care of her.

If you live in Illinois, you know you need a winter coat. That’s a no-brainer.

As for winter tires, that’s not as obvious, although many probably believe they should have winter tires since they’re advertised as such.

You actually may need winter tires and most experts would probably agree that it’s a good idea if you live in the Midwest or anyplace for that matter where snowy, icy roads are more of the norm than just a few occasional snow flurries the next few months before winter gives way to spring.

Most experts will probably tell you that since the temperature in the Chicagoland area is regularly below 45 degrees, you shouldn’t hesitate in scheduling a service call to have four snow/winter tires installed.

Safety should be a priority for you and your family all year long, and the elements in the winter can be

particularly challenging. That’s why snow tires are so important. They are designed to overcome the cold temperatures, ice and snow so you can drive as best as possible during such dangerous conditions.

All-season tires are far more versatile than winter tires and with rain and wet roads in the spring, summer and fall, they usually have no problem providing excellent performance. They are even capable of handling some light wintry conditions, but with Old Man Winter usually angry in these parts, you can achieve some peace of mind by switching to winter tires.

The Gary Lang Auto Group has wheel and tire specialists that can help you find the perfect winter tires for your vehicle. They can also check the wear, tread and inflation pressure of your tires so that you get back on the road safely.

Unless you plan on heading south for the next few months, make a plan to have winter tires installed real soon.

Children being in charge of their parents is a major problem, and I see it frequently in 4-year-olds and older. But 18-month-olds? This is a different story.

You are noticing all of the age-appropriate behaviors for your 18-month-old, so let’s go into why an almost-2-year-old becomes so “mommy-focused.”

Your daughter biologically needs to stay close to you, and her body and mind are built to keep you close. The following, the crying and the demands for you to hold her are not manipulative. Her brain sounds an alarm that says, “Stay with Mom, stay with Mom, stay with Mom.” Although it seems as if she is easiest to handle at day care and

when she’s with your spouse, this neediness means she is most attached to you.

So, understand she is not trying to manipulate you. This is a crucial shift in your thinking, and it can help your feelings go from resentment to empathy.

If you resent her reaching and cries, it usually will lead you to wanting to teach her a lesson or nip this kind of behavior in the bud. And while shame, punishment, timeouts and yelling may work in quieting her, these tactics are not addressing her deeper needs.

The fact remains when she is in day care and away from you, she misses you. She cannot voice her feelings (there is not enough language), and she cannot moderate her feelings (her prefrontal cortex is too immature to filter her emotions into feelings, where she can then reflect on them herself).

Essentially, you are parenting a young child who desperately wants you.

Does this mean you should quit work? Drop everything you are doing and hold her until your arms fall off? No and no. This is not practical, not good for your daughter, and not even what she wants and needs.

Does her behavior mean you need to make some small and conscious changes to your parenting behavior? Yes. And lest you think, “Great, I am going to be shackled to this child forever,” I will

32 Statins do more than lower cholesterol Note to readers: This column originally ran in November 2014.

Dear Dr. K: My doctor never recommend-

ed statins to me, but he says there are new guidelines, and thinks I should now start taking one. What do you think of the new statin guidelines?

Dear Reader: The new guidelines make a lot of sense, because we’ve learned statins have more effects on the body than just lowering cholesterol.

Statins were developed after a Nobel Prize-winning discovery in the 1970s revealed how the body makes cholesterol. Most of the cholesterol in our body is made by our body, not consumed in our food. Statins slow the production of LDL (“bad”) cholesterol by the body.

In the 1980s, studies showed statins dramatically lowered blood levels of LDL cholesterol and also lowered the risk of heart attack. At first, we assumed the lower risk of heart attack was entirely explained by the lower cholesterol. That’s because we knew people with high LDL cholesterol in their blood had higher rates of heart attack.

But then a large study conducted at Harvard Medical School found statins profoundly lowered the risk of heart attack, even in people with normal total and LDL cholesterol levels.

That’s because statins do more than just lower cholesterol. Heart attacks occur when cholesterol-filled plaques in the heart’s arteries rupture, causing a clot that blocks blood from getting to the heart. Inflammation inside the plaques causes them to rupture – and statins reduce inflammation.

This realization changed the way doctors think about statins. If statins lower the risk of heart attack even in people with normal cholesterol levels, we should give them to people at high risk for heart at-

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff tack – regardless of their cholesterol level.

The American Heart Association (AHA) and the American College of Cardiology issued new statin-prescribing guidelines in November 2013. Until then, doctors prescribed statins to reach specific cholesterol goals or targets. Instead, the new guidelines ask doctors to prescribe statins based on a patient’s overall heart and artery disease risk.

Specifically, the new guidelines recommend patients in any of the following groups be treated with a statin: • People who already have heart or artery disease; • People with very high levels of LDL cholesterol (190 mg/dL or higher); • Anyone between the ages of 40 and 75 who has Type 2 diabetes; • Adults age 40 to 75 years who have a heart disease or stroke risk of 7.5 percent or greater in the next 10 years.

Of course, all drugs have some risk.

Statins can cause muscle cramps and, rarely, more serious muscle injury and liver problems. It’s a matter of balancing your personal risks and benefits. For most people covered by the new guidelines, I believe the benefits of statins are greater than the risks.

Although I don’t know the specifics in your case, I’ll bet the reason your doctor now is recommending statins is you are at high risk for heart disease, even though your cholesterol levels are not particularly high. If so, I would agree.

I am a retired airline employee, and I get passes for my friends and family. I recently provided first-class-eligible round-trip passes from San Diego to Paris to my best friend and her friend. (The fare would have cost them thousands of dollars retail.) The only thing I asked in return was to pick me up a menu, a print or something small that could be packed easily.

They were in Paris for a month, Abby, and they totally forgot me. I am so hurt. Sometimes I want to call them and tell them how I feel. Then I think it wouldn’t be a good idea. What is the best way to handle this? – Up In The Air Dear Up In The Air: I don’t blame you for being angry about the thoughtlessness and ingratitude they displayed. Your feelings are justified, and you should clear the air by explaining you were hurt. You have every right to tell your friend how you feel. And the next time you are asked to give them a free ride, you have every right to say “non.”

Dear Abby: I’m hoping you can guide me on how to handle a sticky situation with my neighbors.

My 9-year-old son has befriended a kid his age. The boy is nice, and I don’t mind him coming over. However, he has a younger brother the parents always send with him, and the boy is very hyper and aggressive. I work full time as a behavior specialist and deal with hyperactive children all day. The last thing I want when I come home is a hyper child I cannot parent.

My son recently invited his friend to sleep over, and the parents sent both boys. How do I let them know sometimes just the older brother is welcome without hurting their feelings? – Not

INDOOR GARAGE SALE

FRI & SAT 9-5, SUN 10-3 Spring Grove Estate/Moving Sale 7101 Cherrywood Lane

Bennett Cerf, one of the founders of Random House, said, “Gross ignorance is 144 times worse than ordinary ignorance.”

That’s the sort of clever comment some people -- like me! -- wish they had thought of first. In today’s deal, though, the word “worse” was used by the original declarer. He was in four hearts. He ruffed the club-ace lead, drew two rounds of trumps leaving the queen on the board, cashed the diamond ace and king, then played a third diamond. However, East won with the queen and shifted to the spade queen. Three spade losers later, declarer was one down.

“Did you ever see a worse distribution?” South asked his partner.

“East had the diamond queen and West had ace-third of spades. If the diamond queen or spade ace had been doubleton, or the diamond queen with West, I would have been all right.”

North agreed that his partner was unlucky. However, after the session, what did he point out that his partner had missed?

After ruffing at trick one, South could have made the contract with some excellent guesswork. The curious may work it out. But much simpler was not to ruff; instead, to discard a diamond. Suppose West switches to a diamond. South wins with dummy’s king, draws trumps, plays his last diamond to dummy’s ace and leads another diamond.

Here, the queen appears, so declarer ruffs, crosses to the heart queen and discards a spade on the diamond jack. If East plays low on the third diamond, South pitches a spade and cannot be defeated even if West wins the trick.

BOYS BASKETBALL SEASON PREVIEW

Five to watch Blaine Bayer Richmond-Burton, sr., G Not many schools have a point guard who starts for four years, but Richmond-Burton has one in Bayer. The 5-foot8 senior averaged 15.1 points a game and hit 40 3-pointers last season.

Bayer was a Northwest Herald All-Area second-team selection and should help R-B contend in the Kishwaukee River Conference.

Cameron Krutwig Jacobs, sr., C Krutwig (6-9) has 1,029 points and a school-record 810 rebounds for his career.

He had a monster junior season, leading the Golden Eagles to a 23-7 record and the Fox Valley Conference Valley Division title. He signed with NCAA Division I Loyola this month. He was a Northwest Herald All-Area first-team selection last season.

Sam Ohlrich Marian Central, sr., C Ohlrich (6-9) is a third-year starter whose junior season was abbreviated by a sprained ankle. He averaged 11.9 points last season for the 17-10 Hurricanes. Marian will miss Northwest Herald Player of the Year Adam Pischke, but Ohlrich will be a presence inside.

Ryan Phillips Jacobs, jr., G-F Phillips (6-3) averaged 11.2 points for the 23-7 Golden Eagles, who won a Class 4A regional title last season. He also was their leading 3-point shooter with 38. He gives Jacobs size to defend forwards and a shooting touch that can hurt when teams give Krutwig too much attention.

Mike Volkening Marengo, sr., G Volkening (6-3) took over as point guard for the Indians last season when they were 21-8 for their third consecutive 20-win season. He averaged 14.4 points a game and hit 39 3s. Volkening was a Northwest Herald All-Area second-team selection and is one of the area’s toughest players to stop from driving to the basket.

KRUTWIG, JACOBS SET LOFTY GOAL

Center hopes to lead Eagles to 1st supersectional

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com

A

LGONQUIN – Jacobs boys basketball players show no hesitation or trepidation when listing their goals for the season – they want to fly where no Golden Eagles have before.

That would entail winning a Class 4A sectional championship.

“We definitely want to be the best team in Jacobs’ history,” center Cameron Krutwig said. “I’ve been in a sectional two years and never been past a sectional semifinal. We want to compete for a supersectional. We know who’s in our sectional, who’s in our supersectional. We’re gunning for that.”

Krutwig, a 6-foot-9, 270-pound senior, again will be the driving force.

He passed 1,000 career points, became the Eagles’ career rebounding leader, set the school record with 77 blocked shots and led an inexperienced group to a 23-7 record and a Class 4A regional championship.

“Last year, Cam just carried us,” Eagles coach Jimmy Roberts said.

“People think it’s Cam Krutwig and a bunch of guys; I’m excited for people to see what the other guys have become.

We have really, really good basketball players around [Krutwig], and we have a chance to be a really, really good team.”

Krutwig, who signed this month with NCAA Division I Loyola, was the consummate leader last season.

Roberts said his teammates gravitated to him, just like defenders do when he gets the ball in the low post.

Krutwig has an old-school, post-up game inside and is a relentless rebounder and adept passer. He draws so much attention inside with double-teams that someone usually is open behind the 3-point line. When Jacobs hits 3s, it is devastating, and the Eagles feel like they have the shooters necessary to complement Krutwig, thus the high hopes.

“We need to hit shots. We talk about

Jacobs’ Cameron Krutwig (center) runs during practice Wednesday in Algonquin. Krutwig, a senior, recently signed with NCAA Division I Loyola. it every single day, knocking down the shot, because Cam’s going to find you,” said Ryan Phillips, a 6-3 junior forward who led Jacobs with 38 3s last season. “We saw it last year. When we hit shots, we’re deadly, and it’s tough to guard us.”

Point guard Nik Balkcom, guard Cooper Schwartz and forward Mason Materna will be the other starters, and all are capable of hitting 3s. Krutwig often took over games inside, like the Rock Valley College Sectional game against Rockford Auburn when he scored 20 of the Eagles’ 23 first-half points.

Those returning players make the Eagles the favorites to win the Fox Valley Conference. McHenry and Prairie Ridge (the FVC Fox Division champion last season) are considered the teams that also could be near the top.

“People may think Jacobs is just me and we don’t have other guys, and it’s not true,” Krutwig said. “We’ve got six or seven shooters. It’ll open up space for me and help them, too.”

Krutwig, a left-handed shooter, played AAU basketball with Fundamental U through the spring and competed against some of the nation’s best players, although he stuck with Jacobs for most of the summer high school schedule. He worked on extending his

shooting range and added more post moves.

“My right hand’s getting a lot better,” he said. “I can consistently go there now. Last year, I was a little iffy on the footwork. This year, I feel like I can right-hand hook, right in the middle of the lane, so teams aren’t going to be able to just play me left now.”

Balkcom gained a valuable year running the offense last season and had a busy summer with a Fundemantal U team a year behind Krutwig’s.

“I want to handle pressure much better than last year, run the plays and be a leader on the court,” Balkcom said. “Our team is full of shooters. We space out the floor and have shooters everywhere now. I want to help us be the best team in Jacobs’ history.”

Roberts embraces his players thinking big.

“It’s something we’ve talked about ever since we got here,” said Roberts, who is in his fourth season. “The faces change, but the goals remain the same.

Our goal is always to compete for and win a sectional. Other things fall in line before that. These guys have higher goals this year and they’re completely realistic. It’s not just talking about it, but doing something about it, and that’s what they’ve done from the end of last year to this point.”

BOYS BASKETBALL TEAM PREVIEW CAPSULES FOX VALLEY CONFERENCE

Crystal Lake Central

Crystal Lake South

Coach: Matt LePage (fifth season) Last season’s record: 16-12 overall, 7-3 FVC Valley Key returning players: Matt Meyers (6-3, G, sr.), Luke Nolan (6-4, F, sr.), Tyler Haskin (6-4, F, jr.)

Worth noting: Meyers and Nolan are two starters who will be looked to for experience and leadership early in the season. … Haskin also got a good deal of experience last season. … LePage thinks Leva’s strength and athletic ability will make him an impact player. … Weatherburn, Holloway and Geske will play important roles in the backcourt. Geske’s older brothers Nick and Zach were two of the Gators’ best players in the past five years.

Dundee-Crown

Coach: Lance Huber (14th season) Last season’s record: 3-22 overall, 0-10 FVC Valley Division Key returning players: Jack Orndahl (5-10, G, jr.), Sean Jay (5-6, G, sr.), Brett Buske (6-3, F, sr.), Gabe Bergeron (6-6, F, jr.)

Key new players: Tariq Burns, (6-4, F, sr.), Jermani Dal Santo (6-2, G, sr.)

Worth noting: Orndahl is a third-year starter as a junior and led the Chargers with 10.1 points a game last season. He hit 40 3-pointers, which tied for eighth in the area. … Bergeron adds some size and good moves in the middle for D-C. … Huber sees Jacobs as the FVC favorite, followed by McHenry and Prairie Ridge. “I am hopeful we will be a competitive group who will be able to reach their potential,” Huber said. “If we can do that, it will be a satisfying season. Our players have put in a lot of hard work.”

Hampshire

Coach: Ben Whitehouse (second season) Last season’s record: 10-18 overall, 5-7 FVC Fox Key returning players: Billy Dumoulin (5-11, F, sr.), Nathan Gomez (6-6, C, sr.), Nate Cork (5-9, G, jr.)

Key new players: Tre Powell (5-10, G, jr.), J.D. Shaw (6-2, G, so.), Kevin Michaelsen (5-10, G, jr.)

Worth noting: Whitehouse said Dumoulin has become a more confident shooter and will be looked to as a leading scorer. Gomez should help the Whip-Purs inside, and Cork gained experience last year and is someone who can make others better. … The Whips were hit hard

Jacobs

Coach: Jimmy Roberts (fourth season) Last season’s record: 23-7 overall, 10-0 FVC Valley Key returning players: Cameron Krutwig (6-9, C, sr.), Ryan Phillips (6-3, G, jr.), Nik Balkcom (6-2, G, jr.), Mason Materna (6-4, F, sr.), Cooper Schwartz (6-1, G, sr.), Adam Kale (5-10, G, sr.), Joey Price (6-6, C, so.), Jack Nickoley (6-2, F, sr.)

Key new players: Ajani Rodriguez (5-11, G, jr.), Kameron Mack (6-4, F, jr.), Daniel Murray (6-2, F, jr.)

Worth noting: Roberts and big man Krutwig came in together and are 63-27 in their three seasons, with two Class 4A regional championships. … Krutwig, who passed 1,000 career points and is Jacobs’ career rebounding leader, signed with NCAA Division I Loyola this month. … Phillips averaged 11.2 points a game and hit 38 3-pointers last season. … Balkcom wound up starting at point guard in the second half of the season, while Materna and Schwartz both are players capable of scoring from behind the 3-point line. … “Our goals are very high, as they have been each of the past three years,” Roberts said. “We have an experienced group, the kids spend a lot of time together, and they’re a great group of friends.”

McHenry

Coach: Tim Paddock (13th season) Last season’s record: 17-19 overall, 7-3 FVC Valley Division Key returning players: Gavin Markgraff (6-4, F-G, jr.), Gio Calabrese (5-8, G, jr.), Matthew Mohr (6-6, F, sr.), Colton Klein (6-4, F-G, sr.), Andrew Rupcich (6-6, F, sr.)

Key new player: Maki Mohr (6-2, F, jr.)

Worth noting: The Warriors graduated some key players but have a lot of experience returning, led by forwards Matthew Mohr and Klein, along with guards Markgraff and Calabrese. … The second-place tie last season was one of McHenry’s highest finishes in the FVC Valley. … “We have a great collection of juniors and seniors who have worked extremely hard this offseason and have proved they are ready to compete at a high level,” Paddock said.

Prairie Ridge

Coach: Corky Card (15th season) Last season’s record: 25-4 overall, 12-0 FVC Fox Key returning players: Brian Dorn (6-2, G, sr.), Kyle Loeding (6-4, F, sr.), Trevor Potter (5-10, G, sr.), James Queen (6-0, G, sr.), Matt Hoyland (6-1, F, sr.)

Key new players: Austen Ferbet (6-3, C, sr.), Konnor Kazin (6-1, G, jr.), Hunter Morlock (6-0, F, jr.)

Worth noting: The Wolves won back-to-back FVC Fox Division titles and had the second-most wins in school history last season at 25-4. … Dorn was a defensive terror, and Loeding brought high energy and a scoring threat off the bench last season. Loeding will step into a more integral role. … “How hard we play and how well we play together will dictate our ability to compete in games,” Card said.

Burlington Central

Coach: Brett Porto (eighth season) Last season’s record: 26-4 overall, 13-1 in Big Northern Conference East Key returning players: TaVontae Harris (5-7, PF, sr.), Zach Schutta (6-1, F, jr.), Joey Ratzek (6-2, F, sr.), Emmanuel Wells (5-10, G, sr.), Michael Kalusa (6-1, G, sr.), Ryan Cilano (6-0, G, sr.), Robert Lim (6-0, G, sr.)

Key new players: Will Hough (6-3, F, jr.), Caden Scott (6-3, F, jr.), Patrick Mayfield (6-3, G, sr.), Javyon Johnson (6-3, F, jr.), Michael Pearson (6-3, F, jr.)

Worth noting: Big man Ryan Fitzgerald graduated from the BNC East champions and was a tough matchup inside. … Harris and Schutta were starters and provided strong outside shooting.

Harvard

Coach: Donnie Nolen (fifth season) Last season’s record: 10-19 overall, 1-13 BNC East Key returning players: Eric McDowell (5-9, G, sr.), Roy Amaya Jr. (6-0, G, sr.)

Key new players: Miguel Valdez (5-11, F, sr.), Hector Chavera (6-2, F, jr.), Pablo Peralta (6-2, F, jr.), Rafael Escobar (5-10, F, jr.)

Worth noting: Nolen hopes the Hornets can improve on last season’s record after what he considered was a productive summer. … “The team really bonded well and played in some very close games at the end of the summer,” Nolen said.

Johnsburg

Coach: Mike Toussaint (sixth season) Last season’s record: 14-17 overall, 6-8 BNC East Key returning players: Warren Nusser (6-4, F, sr.), Bryce Jordan (6-3, C, sr.), Dan Kelly (6-2, F, sr.), Zach Toussaint (6-0, G, so.)

Key new players: Jackson LaMarche (6-3, G-F, jr.), Mason Sobiesk ( jr.), Will Conroy (5-11, G, jr.), Brody Frazier (6-3, F, jr.)

Worth noting: The Skyhawks lost 10 seniors to graduation, and Bryce Smith, who would have been their lone returning starter, suffered a torn ACL in football and will miss the season. … Zach Toussaint, the coach’s nephew, had a solid offseason and could be one of the area’s top sophomores. … Nusser has been on varsity since his freshman year; Jordan since his sophomore season, so they add experience. … Mike Toussaint looks for Sobiesk and Lamarche to make immediate impacts as juniors. … Mike Toussaint feels like his team is well-suited to play an up-tempo style.

Marengo

Coach: Nate Wright (third season) Last season’s record: 21-8 overall, 11-3 BNC East Key returning starters: Mike Volkening (6-3, G, sr.), Blaine Borhart (5-10, G, jr.), Carter Olson (6-2, F, sr.)

Key new players: Connor Wascher (6-0, G, sr.), John Henning (5-10, G, sr.), Alejandro Rodriguez (6-6, F, jr.), Alex Schirmer (6-3, F, jr.)

Worth noting: The Indians have had three consecutive 20-win seasons but will miss guard Zach Knobloch, the No. 3 player on the IHSA’s career 3-point list, who was on all three of those teams. … Volkening was a Northwest Herald All-Area second-team player who can score all over. He will be the Indians’ leader this season. … Borhart was a strong defensive player as a sixth man last season and will look to score more. … “We have lots of new faces, so there will be a learning curve, but they have really started with a good mindset,” Wright said. “We hope that translates into a good start.”

Richmond-Burton

Coach: Brandon Creason (eighth season) Last season’s record: 11-18 overall, 5-9 BNC East Key returning players: Blaine Bayer (5-8, G, sr.), Jake Kaufman (5-10, G, sr.), Brady Gibson (6-1, F, sr.), Mark Marzahl (6-0, F, jr.), Josh Hansel (6-0, F, sr.)

Key new players: Joey St. Pierre (6-8, F, sr.), Shane Byrne (6-3, F, jr.), Colin Laskowski (5-10, G, sr.)

Worth noting: Bayer and Kaufman are fourth-year varsity players who have started for most of their careers. Bayer was a Northwest Herald All-Area second-team player. … The Rockets lost guard Jesse Hill-Male for the second straight year to a torn ACL

from football (he now has torn both). Hill-Male tried to put a brace on the leg in the first practice but was unable to go. … The return of St. Pierre, who started the 2015-16 school year at La Lumiere Prep School in La Porte, Indiana, gives R-B one of the best big men in the KRC. … R-B could be a favorite in the first year of the new conference.

Woodstock

Coach: Al Baker (ninth season) Last season’s record: 18-8 overall, 8-4 FVC Fox Key returning players: Matt Shook (6-1, G, sr.), Josh Turner (6-4, F, sr.), Blake Brainerd (6-3, C, sr.), Justin Leith (6-3, F, sr.)

Key new players: Mikey Gardner (6-0, F, jr.), Carl Anderson (5-10, G, so.), Evan Bridges (5-8, G, so.), David Shinherr (5-10, G, so.)

Worth noting: The Blue Streaks graduated four starters, most notably guards Vannis Smith (14.2 ppg.) and Dan Shook (12.8), their leading scorers. … “We can shoot, and we can guard, but time will tell if we are ready to do those things night in and night out against good teams,” Baker said. … Baker doesn’t think the KRC will be significantly different than playing in the FVC Fox Division last year. “It’s a strong basketball conference, and we’ll need to bring our best every night if we hope to compete for a title,” he said.

Woodstock North

Coach: Steve Ryan (seventh season) Last season’s record: 5-20 overall, 1-11 FVC Fox Key returning players: Vic Ortiz (5-10, G, sr.), Collin Mergl (6-5, G, jr.), Ryan Medina (6-2, C, sr.), Colin Ritter (5-11, G, sr.), Ethan McClurg (6-4, G, sr.)

Key new players: Ryan Schaffter (5-8, PG, so.), Zach Ramirez (6-2, F, sr.), Joe Haynes (6-4, F, jr.)

Worth noting: Ortiz and Mergl are a good place to start for the Thunder. Ortiz led the team in scoring (11.4) and 3-pointers (56). Mergl, who played on varsity as a freshman, averaged 9.2 points a game. … “They put in a lot of time and I expect big things from them this year,” Ryan said. “They work extremely hard and push each other every day in practice. Ortiz, Mergl and Medina will provide the bulk of the scoring, we’re going to need others to step up and score baskets for us.”

EAST SUBURBAN CATHOLIC CONFERENCE Marian Central

Coach: Jim Sarther (first season) Last season’s record: 17-10 overall, 3-6 ESCC Key returning players: Sam Ohlrich (6-9, F, sr.), Jack Moscinski (6-4, G, sr.), Thomas Menner (6-7, F, jr.)

Key new players: A.J. Golembiewski (6-4, G, jr.), Ben Keller (6-3, F, jr.), Kevin Herbst (6-5, F, jr.)

Worth noting: Ohlrich was nagged for the last third of last season with a sprained ankle but will be one of the area’s top big men. He averaged 11.9 points a game. … Moscinski averaged 10.1 points a game and hit 26 3s. … The Hurricanes are not lacking for size with five players 6-4 or taller. … Sarther said Menner might be their most improved player and should be a consistent scorer inside. … Sarther thinks the ESCC might be one of the top five conferences in the state but that Marian has the pieces to compete.

NORTHEASTERN ATHLETIC CONFERENCE Alden-Hebron

Coach: Todd Mathis (fourth season) Last season’s record: 2-25 overall, 0-10 NAC Key returning players: Austin Stauss (5-11, G, sr.), Taylor Glenn (6-2, C, sr.), Anthony Williams (5-10, G, sr.)

Key new players: Jacob Boehlen (6-0, F, jr.), Tomi Mor (6-0, F, so.), Brad Judson (6-0, G, so.)

Worth noting: Stauss and Glenn were captains last season and return healthy for this season. Glenn missed half of last season with a knee injury; Stauss was out with a shoulder injury. … Williams is a versatile player who Mathis believes can score inside and outside.

Worth noting: The Tigers had no senior players on the roster last season, so they return all their players. … Timmerman played on varsity as a freshman and will be more of a force inside this season. … Pump and Wittenberg will be third-year starters and Knoeppel is one of the Tigers’ best outside threats.

What to watch NHL: Blackhawks at Calgary, 8 p.m., CSN The Hawks’ long road trip didn’t start well – a 4-0 loss Tuesday at Winnipeg – but they have a chance to bounce back Friday when they visit the Flames.

Chicago Phillips football coach Troy McAllister would be lying if he said he had envisioned his football team where it is now when he took over the program in 2010.

McAllister’s team will suit up 46 players for the state semifinal game Friday at Johnsburg. At his first practice in 2010, 12 players showed up.

Wendell Phillips Academy High School in Chicago’s Bronzeville neighborhood recently had been designated an Academy for Urban School Leadership-turnaround school, meaning the school was in trouble and an entirely new staff was coming in to shake things up.

Fast forward six years: The Wildcats are playing for their third consecutive trip to the IHSA Class 4A state finals.

Phillips lost the state title game to Rochester in 2014. It was the first championship game appearance for a Chicago Public League team since 1982. The Wildcats made it back last year and pounded Belleville Althoff, 51-7, for the CPL’s first state title.

“It’s incremental steps,” McAllister said. “You have to have your tough losses along the way.”

The journey has been improbable for Phillips and for the man who has led it. A Canadian football coach who played his college ball at Queens University in Kingston, Ontario, is hard-

ly the man one might expect to lead a team on Chicago’s South Side to a state title.

Now, the expectations have changed.

“We’re kind of in uncharted territory,” McAllister said.

“We want to maintain this little run we’ve got going. I think the mentality of the young men in our program now is they’re winners and that’s what they want to be.”

Dan DeBoeuf In each of the past two state title game runs, Phillips beat Johnsburg along the way. Like McAllister said: you have to have tough losses along the way.

Although the schools and communities are much different, Johnsburg has made a similar rise from futility into uncharted territory. Not so long ago, Johnsburg muddled its way through back-to-back 0-9 seasons and at one point lost 25 consecutive games.

“You’re going to attract a lot of people to your school and to your area if you have a lot of success,” Johnsburg coach Dan DeBoeuf said. “This is the third straight playoff appearance for us. If we can win on Friday and take a trip down to Champaign, I think that’s only going to help our program.”

DeBoeuf is in his second year as the head coach. Barry Creviston coached the first 0-9 season in 2011. Mike Maloney, now the coach at Marian Central,

coached the second 0-9 season in 2012.

The Skyhawks finished 1-8 the next year and then jumped to 9-2 in 2014 with a playoff appearance in Maloney’s last year before DeBoeuf took over.

Now the Skyhawks will play in their first state semifinal. DeBoeuf knows that the younger kids are watching – the sixth-, seventh- and eighth-graders who might one day want to suit up for the Skyhawks. The long-term success of any program hinges on the ability to convince the younger kids that they could one day play for a state title.

DeBoeuf said a trip to Champaign would be a “dream come true” for the players and the staff. “(We’ve) had some guys on our staff who have been pretty close,” DeBoeuf said. “Our defensive coordinator (Sam Lesniak) went to the quarters when he was at Minooka (as a player). I went to the quarters when I was at Lemont (as a player). For the kids and for the coaches, it would be a dream come true. The belief is there, and I think our players right now are thinking that this is going to happen.”

The defending champions stand in their way. Phillips returns about 35 players from last year’s Class 4A state championship squad.

“Last year’s seniors, that was their legacy, being state champs,” McAllister said. “This year’s seniors, they’re trying to get back to the game. First and foremost, we’re focused on Johnsburg and getting there.”

PREP FOOTBALL: CLASS 4A SEMIFINAL PREVIEW

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com

Ken Koontz for Shaw Media

Johnsburg assistant coach Namon Johnson fires up the team before a Class 4A quarterfinal game against Genoa-Kingston last week in Johnsburg.

Johnsburg (12-0) never had reached a semifinal until this season. Phillips (11-1) suffered its only loss Aug. 26, a 34-26 season-opening loss to Fenwick, a Class 7A semifinalist. Johnsburg coach Dan DeBoeuf said, even though their last matchup was a year ago, his team can learn from the 2015 loss to Phillips.

“The biggest difference is our players’ mindsets going into this week,” DeBoeuf said. “Last year, you had some kids with some experience. But I think they went into that game with a little bit different mindset, kind of hoping that things go well as opposed to thinking that they actually can go well.”

Phillips receiver Quayvon Skanes now plays at UConn. But quarterback J’Bore Gibbs returns and backup run-

ning back Craig Elmore blew right past the Herscher defense in the quarterfinal. The Wildcats expect starting running back Kamari Mosby to return from an injury this week.

With the athletes the Wildcats have, there is always the potential for a big play.

“You have to be disciplined and sound,” DeBoeuf said. “If you’re not in the right gap, one mistake can lead to a big play because they’re so fast.

The same thing goes for their passing game. If you miss one tackle, you’re not going to be able to rally to the ball.”

Last year, Peete ran for only 63 yards, and Johnsburg as a team totaled only 69 rushing yards against the Wildcats. DeBoeuf thinks his offensive line

• Friday, November 18, 2016

Shortly after vanquishing Genoa-Kingston in an Class 4A quarterfinal game, Johnsburg running back Alex Peete was asked whether he and his teammates wanted another crack at Chicago Phillips.

Peete’s eyes widened and his eyebrows rose, as if to say: Would you want to play the defending 4A champions?

Peete said the right thing, however. He didn’t care who won the Herscher vs.

Phillips quarterfinal game.

But his look said it all. Phillips has played in back-to-back state championship games, winning the 2015 title, and it knocked out Johnsburg in the second round each of the past two seasons.

Nobody wants to play the Wildcats.

But Johnsburg, giving it a third try in as many years, might be up for the challenge.

It would be poetic justice if the third time was the charm for the Skyhawks.

At the same time, it would be heartbreaking if these seniors – more than a dozen of whom have played varsity ball for three years – watched Phillips end their season for a third consecutive year.

“We learned this sophomore year, if you go into this game vs. Phillips and expect it to be like any other high school game, you’re going into it with the wrong attitude,” Peete said this week. “They are definitely the most aggressive team and the most hard-hitting team that I’ve ever played in my life.”

is playing well right now. At the same time, he said he’s more worried about his offense scoring this week than he is about his defense giving up points.

“We’re going to be OK on defense,” DeBoeuf said. “I think we’re going to be able to slow them down. The biggest thing is going to be scoring points. If we can score points, I really like our chances.”

Phillips coach Troy McAllister had high praise for Peete.

“Mr. Peete is one heck of a football player,” McAllister said. “Being in the top 10 all-time of Illinois rushing speaks for itself and the ability that he has.”

The Johnsburg community is pumped for the game. Peete said the school is decked out with posters, and local businesses have signs in the windows. DeBoeuf had a message for the team when the week began.

“Our coach told us [Monday] morning, he said, ‘We have nothing to lose,’ ” Peete said. “ ‘We’ve made history. If we win, we’re going to state. If we lose, we (already) made history here.’ So we have to put everything that we have into this.

“We want to leave with something more than just a semifinal appearance.”

When: 7 p.m. Friday, Johnsburg Athletic Field Up next: The winner meets the winner between No. 5 Rochester (11-1) and No. 7 Canton (10-2) in the Class 4A state championship game at the University of Illinois’ Memorial Stadium in Champaign.

8 GIRLS SWIMMING: STATE MEET PREVIEW

McHenry hopes to add to historic season

By JOHN WILKINSON

jwilkinson@shawmedia.com As a freshman at the state’s biggest swimming meet last year, McHenry’s Payton Lange felt a little overwhelmed.

“Last year, I was the only one from my team, and I didn’t know where anything was, I didn’t know anything, I hadn’t swam at the pool before, I had never even been to that high Payton Lange school,” Lange said.

“So I was really nervous. Especially that atmosphere, you know, of state, it’s really intimidating.

But this year, I’m really excited to go with a bunch of girls from my team, and I feel a lot more prepared this year.”

Lange will have plenty of company to find her way around Evanston High School on Friday as five McHenry swimmers will compete in the preliminaries of the IHSA state meet. In addition to Lange, the other state-bound Warriors include her older sister, senior Hannah Lange, sophomore Caileigh McCafferty, senior Janessa Kruse and sophomore Megan Frost.

Two other local swimmers, Prairie Ridge junior Valerie Tarazi of the Crystal Lake High School co-op team and Marian Central sophomore Lauren Payton also will compete in the prelims, which begin at 3:30 p.m. Friday. The top six finishers in each event Friday qualify for Saturday’s championship finals, while finishers seven through 12 will swim in consolation finals Saturday.

McHenry’s five state qualifiers will

Payton Lange qualified with the second-fastest time in the 100-yard freestyle (51.35), and the 13th-best time in the 50 freestyle (23.82). Hannah Lange qualified for the 500 freestyle with the 11th-best time (5:02.59) and the 200 freestyle in 1:54.8, 28th best. McCafferty qualified 25th for the 200 individual medley (2:08.17).

The 200 freestyle relay team of McCafferty, Kruse, Payton Lange and Hannah Lange qualified with the 19th-fastest time (1:37.53). The 400 freestyle relay of McCafferty, Frost, Hannah Lange and Payton Lange qualified in 3:35.02, 24th fastest.

No matter how they do Friday, those teams already might have made history. According to records on the IHSA website, McHenry hasn’t qualified a re-

lay since at least before 1996, and coach Craig Fowles said he isn’t aware of the school ever sending a girls relay team to state.

“To be that team that McHenry has, to hold that with us that we’re the first in a very long time to be able to do that is just an amazing feeling,” Hannah Lange said. “I feel like you set these goals at the beginning of the season, and then once you finally reach them at the end of the year, it’s like all that work you just did pays off. And when you do it with a bunch of people, it feels really great.”

Hannah Lange, like her sister, is returning to state for the second time, although she last made it two years ago as a sophomore.

“I feel very confident. I’m actually super anxious, I’m not nervous or anything, I’m just anxious to get back into that pool because it’s the same pool I was swimming in sophomore year,” Hannah Lange said. “So I’m super excited to be able to swim in that pool again, and mentally and everything I’m just in a really good place.

“Most people when you say, ‘We’re swimming at Evanston High School,’ people turn down that pool like ‘Ew, gross, why would you like that pool?’ because it’s just your normal six-lane metal-guttered pool. But the amount of people that are there, the noise, everybody swimming fast times … it just adds to that and it makes you want to do better, too. Just being in that atmosphere, you want to do better.”

As a first-time qualifier, Marian Central’s Payton said she is “a little nervous leading up to it,” but excited and

enjoying the opportunity.

She qualified with the 14th-fastest time in the 500 freestyle (5:03.27) and the 27th best time in the 200 freestyle (1:54.76).

“I really focused on distance freestyle throughout my season,” Payton said. “I’m usually a 200-[butterfly] (swimmer) and a 500 freestyle, but they don’t offer the 200 fly in high school season. So 500 free and 200 free are my next two best events, and I’ve really been working on my walls and making sure I can get my turns down.”

One local swimmer who won’t have any trouble feeling comfortable in the atmosphere is Tarazi, making her third appearance at the state meet.

“It’s really nice that it’s finally coming to a season end,” Tarazi said. “I’ve been waiting. I kind of had a disappointing Junior Nationals, and that was my last, like, championship meet. So I’m really looking forward going into this one.”

Last year, Tarazi won the state title in the 100 breaststroke and took second in the 200 individual medley by a mere seven-hundredths of a second.

Tarazi qualified with the second-fastest time in the 100 breaststroke (2:04.79) and is seeded fourth in the 200 individual medley with a time of 2:04.79.

“I’m just really excited. I’m excited to get up and race,” Tarazi said. “This is a new year, there’s a lot of great girls out there. I’m not expecting anything. I have a few high goals, and that’s about it. Really, it’s all about times. If I don’t win a state title, then I don’t win a state title. As long as I go up there and do my best.”

Kris Bryant is the first Cub in 18 years to win the MVP Award. The full list: 2016 – Kris Bryant* 1998 – Sammy Sosa* 1987 – Andre Dawson 1984 – Ryne Sandberg* 1959 – Ernie Banks 1958 – Ernie Banks 1952 – Hank Sauer 1945 – Phil Cavarretta* 1935 – Gabby Hartnett* Note: The MVP has been awarded by vote of the BBWAA since 1931. Before that, the Cubs had one winner of the League Award, “for greatest all-around service to his club” (Rogers Hornsby, 1929); and one Chalmers Award winner, for “the most important and useful player” in the league (Frank Schulte, 1911).

*-Qualified for postseason

during the announcement show, with his dad and fiancée at his side. “It’s just been an unbelievable year, for me, for the team, getting married – I don’t know, man. This is unbelievable.”

Beyond the numbers, Bryant’s value is measured in the fact the All-Star third baseman started and played well at four different positions this year, including 53 combined starts in the corner outfield spots – and measured in moments like that night in Los Angeles, when he took on the responsibility of the uncomfortable moment, and took pressure off teammates.

“I don’t know if that was his absolute intent,” manager Joe Maddon said of that night. “But that’s good to hear.

“He shows up,” the manager said.

It seems he always has.

Bryant, 24, is the first player in history to win national college player of the year honors, minor league player of the year honors, Rookie of the Year and MVP in four consecutive years.

“I don’t know if that’ll ever sink in,” said Bryant, who joked: “It’s all downhill from here.

“To do that is very humbling,” he added, “and I’m so grateful for all the opportunities along the way to get to that point. I’ll continue to work harder than I’ve ever done before to hopefully sustain that and win more World Series and more games and have a lot of fun along the way.”

Bryant credited Rizzo, who batted behind him, and the rest of a strong lineup for helping him put up the numbers that helped him win the award.

“We feed off of each other,” he said.

Southern Illinois-Edwardsville defender Cory Levels, a Cary-Grove graduate, played a key role last week in her team’s upset victory over No. 11 Notre Dame in the first round of the NCAA tournament, scoring during a penalty-kick shootout.

COLLEGE WOMEN’S SOCCER: NCAA TOURNAMENT

C-G grad Levels scores in stunner

By BARRY BOTTINO

Penalty kicks can be a high-intensity moment for any soccer player.

Try taking a penalty kick … in an NCAA tournament game … against a team ranked No. 11 in the nation … on the opponent’s home field.

Cory Levels, a senior defender at Division I Southern Illinois-Edwardsville, did just that last week.

She made her team’s first penalty kick to spark SIUE to a 5-4 vicCory Levels tory in PKs, provide the unranked Cougars with a major upset against 11th-ranked Notre Dame and create one of the greatest moments in school history.

“It’s been pretty surreal,” said Levels, a Cary-Grove graduate. “Emotions were obviously really high. Just managing those emotions and not being scared was a big thing for us.”

The Cougars (10-7-5) and Irish (13-3-5) were scoreless through regulation and overtime.

Despite starting as a defender and having only two shots on goal this season, Levels anticipated being among the players to take a penalty kick.

“I knew I was going to take a shot,” she said. “I have a lot of practice with my PKs, and I just had to trust my practice.

But it didn’t really hit me until I set the

Friday’s match

NCAA tournament second round: SIUEdwardsville (10-7-5) vs. No. 21 Northwestern (15-2-4), 2:30 p.m., Koskinen Stadium, Durham, North Carolina (ESPN3 online) ball down on the line. I just had to set that aside and do it for my team.”

The victory was only the second for a team from the Ohio Valley Conference in a first-round NCAA game.

SIUE plays No. 21 Northwestern (15-24) at 2:30 p.m. Friday in Durham, North Carolina.

Before claiming the OVC Tournament championship and automatic NCAA berth this month, SIUE managed an 8-7-3 regular-season record and five one-goal losses.

“A lot of it was just coming together as a team and trying to find what worked for us,” Levels said. “What works for us is defending and playing for each other.

That’s when we started to find success.”

The victory against Notre Dame provided some redemption for Levels and her teammates. Two years ago, SIUE and Kentucky played a scoreless tie in a firstround NCAA game before the Wildcats won, 4-2, in penalty kicks.

“To turn it around and get a result against a big school was a really great feeling,” Levels said. “To see our program grow in my four years, I’m really happy to be able to leave my mark on it.”

After getting shut out for the second straight game by the Dodgers on a warm October night in Los Angeles, and falling into a 2-1 hole in the National League Championship Series, the Cubs, for the first time all year, were not the favorites to win the World Series.

Not that anybody in the clubhouse seemed to panic, but the mood was conspicuously somber after the game, the room conspicuously lacking guys who Kris Bryant played in the game.

With one notable exception: Kris Bryant, the second-year third baseman who had both Cubs hits (and a strikeout) against Dodgers starter Rich Hill that night, stood up to wave after wave of media asking similar questions – clearly tiring of the repeats but handling the moment with the poise and patience of a more-veteran Ben Zobrist or Jason Heyward.

• “We’ll figure it out.”

• “We’ve got more games to play.”

• “We’re here for a reason. Belief is a very powerful tool.”

Bryant reached base three times the next night as the Cubs routed the Dodgers and swept the final three games of the series to reach the World Series for the first time in 71 years.

Bryant’s huge bat – 39 home runs, a .939 OPS this year – has made him an All-Star in both his big-league seasons, and an MVP front-runner most of the season.

But it’s everything else he does that makes so many others around him better that on Thursday night made him the Cubs’ first National League MVP Award winner since Sammy Sosa in 1998.

Bryant, who became the fourth player in history to follow a Rookie of the Year season with an MVP, received 29 of 30 possible first-place votes to beat out runner-up Daniel Murphy of the Nationals in a 415-245 runaway. Murphy received the other first-place vote.

Cubs teammate Anthony Rizzo finished fourth, just behind the Dodgers’ Corey Seager and just ahead of Colorado’s Nolan Arenado.

Cal Ripken Jr., Ryan Howard and Dustin Pedroia are the others who won Rookie of the Year and MVP awards in consecutive years.

“You can’t really put into words what this feels like,” said Bryant,

Panthers beat Saints in game marred by injuries

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Cam Newton threw for 192 yards and a touchdown, and Carolina held off New Orleans’ fourth-quarter rally to beat the Saints, 23-20, Thursday night in a game marred by injuries to key players.

Newton was 14 of 33 and threw a 40yard touchdown pass to Ted Ginn Jr. to help the Panthers (4-6) win for third time in three games and pull even with the Saints for third place in the NFC South.

Jonathan Stewart also ran for a score, and Graham Gano had three field goals.

The Panthers lost former NFL Defensive Player of the Year Luke Kuechly (concussion), two-time All-Pro center Ryan Kalil (shoulder), defensive end Mario Addison (foot) and cornerback Leonard Johnson (chest) to injuries. Kuechly left the field on a cart while tears streamed down his face.

The Saints lost running back Mark Ingram to a concussion in the third quarter.

Bears quarterback Jay Cutler fumbles as he is hit by Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive end Robert Ayers in the end zone during the third quarter Sunday in Tampa, Fla. Cutler fumbled out of bounds, resulting in a safety. run-check pass, built-in bubbles and inand-outs attached to the run game,” he said. “Those numbers can get skewed a little bit when you’re looking at it from the outside of our building.”

Praise for Howard: Bears coaches and players have talked up Howard’s maturity for a rookie, something Cutler reiterated Thursday.

“Nothing really shakes that kid.

Practice, games, he’s a cool customer,” Cutler said. “He knows exactly what we expect out of him. He usually has the answer to the question before you ask him. He’s doing a heckuva job.”

Injury update: OT Bobby Massie (concussion), NT Eddie Goldman (ankle), DE Mitch Unrein (back) and CB Deiondre’ Hall (ankle) did not practice. WR Eddie Royal, WR Marquess Wilson, G Josh Sitton, LB Pernell McPhee, LB Willie Young, CB Bryce Callahan and CB Tracy Porter were limited. OL Mike Adams was a full participant after missing Wednesday with an illness.

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com LAKE FOREST – Bears quarterback Jay Cutler knows how it goes in the NFL. Two weeks ago, he was praised for his post-injury performance against Minnesota and inspiring his team.

This week, he is coming off a terrible game in Tampa, plus a report from Bleacher Report of teammates losing faith in him.

“The game before it was the opposite end of the spectrum,” Cutler said after practice Thursday. “Whenever you lose, we all know what this position entails, and when you do have a performance like that as a quarterback you’re going to get some of that stuff. ... I’ve never felt like that in the locker room with those guys. But myself and the offense included, we’re definitely working to get better.”

Cutler asked whether the report cited an “unnamed source,” which it did.

“The source could be a lot of people,” he said. “It could be a made-up source, it could actually be guys in there. If people actually start putting their names on it, we can have a discussion about it.”

Run-pass balance: Bears losses this season have brought to the forefront questions about play-calling, and a team that isn’t running it as often as we expected, even when Jordan Howard has been so effective.

Offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains explained how that ratio shifted in Tampa when the game turned.

“The biggest thing, I thought we did a good job of running the football early. I thought we had good balance in the first half,” he said. “... The score really flips how the game is called.

The biggest thing is we try to make a bigger emphasis on trying to say, ‘OK, can you stay with the run?’ But when you get down like that and you turn the football over, it’s hard to overcome those things.”

The Bears run the ball 56.3 percent of the time when they have the lead, which is the seventh-lowest ratio in the league. Loggains said that is something that changes each week and doesn’t account for checks to pass plays.

“I think it’s game-by-game. Some of it, too, some of those numbers can get skewed because you’re throwing the
