Favorite pants walk with us many miles, but not forever My favorite pair of pants have seen their last days, and I can no longer wear them in good conscience.

They were several years old, really standing the test of time for a pair of pants that were worn and washed every other week. And it’s not like they were that expensive when I bought them. You’d expect expensive pants to last a long time, if you were getting your money’s worth.

Although I am not sure what the relationship is between expensive clothing and long-lasting wear. You would think the more you pay, the longer they will last. But people who can afford to pay for expensive clothing probably don’t count the years the clothing lasts. When they lose their crispness, they are replaced. Simple as that.

By lasts, I mean you wear them to the point of embarrassment.

My favorite pants were a pair of khakis I wore to work. They weren’t quite cargo pants, but they had two narrow side pockets on the right leg, one about 3 inches long, the other about twice that. At first I used the shorter one for my dumb phone – it fit perfectly – but I worried that it would slip out, and that was probably an unfounded fear. So I started using the deeper pocket, and I always felt secure knowing that my dumb phone wasn’t going anywhere.

And if it rang while I was doing something else, and I wasn’t expecting a work call, I could simply grab the side of my pants and turn the ringer off. It was perfect.

The inseam on these my favorite pants was perfect, too. Not too short, but not too long to drag on the ground. You would think that inseams were standardized, but they aren’t. There can be as much as an inch difference in inseams between pants in the same store. But my favorite pants? Perfect.

And that’s why I wore them probably longer than I should have.

I have a second pair of work pants – and these are cargo pants because I think that’s what the sign over them said. They were khakis, too, but they had two outside pockets on both legs, about 4 or 5 inches across and about 3 inches deep, with small square Velcro tabs on each end to seal them.

That’s where my dumb phone goes. And, at first, it was perfectly fine. The Velcro worked.

But over numerous washings – these pants have been around for a while, too – the Velcro has lost its stickiness to the point where it doesn’t really do anything. And I’m afraid I’m going to

VIEWS Dick Peterson lose my dumb phone, that it’s going to slip out and won’t notice it, and then I’ll be up a creek.

And the inseam on these pants is the same as the inseam on my erstwhile favorite pants, but the legs are about an inch shorter, and I don’t like that. When I cross my legs, as I like to do, I show about an inch of calf flesh above the top of my socks. So I have to be careful when I cross my legs. I really don’t like these pants, but not so much so that I am going to replace them, as in buy a new pair.

My favorite pair of pants still had the side pockets going for them. But they were becoming threadbare. A hole the size of a dime developed near the bottom of the inside right leg. The fabric on the left leg was fraying badly, and the fabric on the knees was beginning to scuff.

But I would wear them anyway, figuring that most people don’t inspect your pants for imperfections. And those few who do might assume that the holes and fraying just recently appeared, and I was unaware of it. No one said anything to me. Maybe they were being polite.

But the tipping point came when I went to wash my pants up only to notice that a large hole had developed in the right back pocket where I keep my wallet. It was like it was suddenly there – no sneaking up on me with a small hole that grew in size over the months. It was just there. And I had to act. I couldn’t wear my favorite pants anymore.

So, off I went to the store to find a pair of pants that matched those that had worn away, and I was out of luck. The best they could come up with was cargo pants, the same style as I already had with two outside pockets with square Velcro tabs to keep them closed. The only variation was cargo pants with flannel lining, and I didn’t need that to overheat myself.

But they fit, and I will have to take advantage of the security fresh Velcro offers for my dumb phone while it lasts. But I’m going to miss my favorite old pants. They don’t make them like that anymore. Drat.

With stopgap state budget ending, all eyes now on Springfield, lawmakers

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com

While all eyes were on the most divisive presidential election in recent memory, Illinois’ already lousy financial footing got worse.

A forecast revealed Wednesday during a meeting with legislative leaders concluded that the state’s deficit could grow past $5 billion by the June 30 end of the state’s 2017 fiscal year.

The state’s pile of unpaid bills – which the state comptroller now pegs at $10.6 billion – could increase to $13 billion. A subsequent report from the Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability increases the estimated unfunded liability for the five state-run pension systems, not including benefits, from $111 billion to $130 billion. one Voice your opinion Almost dollar out of four in the What’s your biggest state’s generfinancial concern facing al fund goes the state of Illinois? Vote to pay penonline at NWHerald.com. sions, a percentage that, given no changes, is sure to increase.

What’s worse, a six-month stopgap budget that lawmakers cobbled together in June to end a budget impasse that lasted for the entire 2016 fiscal year expires Dec. 31. Without an agreement between Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner and Democratic leaders who control the General Assembly, the state could lapse back into operating without a budget, further raising the state deficit and lowering the state’s bond rating, which already is only a few notches above junk.

Both sides met last week at the start of the fall veto session, with more meetings likely after the Thanksgiving holiday. The positions for both sides this time around have changed little since the impasse started in May 2015, said state Sen. Karen McConnaughay, R-St. Charles. She sits on several of the bipartisan working groups appointed to help hammer out a “grand bargain” that both sides can live with.

“I think we continue to have a philosophical struggle in the state budget between the governor and Democratic leadership in this state, but I think the governor is committed to building a framework and being sincere about

Lake in the Hills Airport manager Michael Peranich (left) and Ron Renkiewicz of Maneval Construction look at the construction progress at the airport Wednesday. The airport is wrapping up a $2.3 million taxiway project in the next week.

Airport wraps up taxiway project Focuses on future safety improvements

By HANNAH PROKOP hprokop@shawmedia.com LAKE IN THE HILLS – With a $2.3 million taxiway project wrapping up at Lake in the Hills Airport, airport manager Michael Peranich said the airport will be safer and more marketable.

“The old taxiway was too close to the runway,” Peranich said. “That’s the primary driver to this entire project.”

In the final stretch of the project, the airport is being closed for about a week.

The 35-foot-wide, 3,800-foot-long taxiway is now far enough away from the runway that larger planes can take off and land at the same time without being too close, Peranich said.

Ninety percent of the airport improvement program is covered by a federal grant, Peranich said. Five percent is covered by the state of Illinois, and the last 5 percent is covered by the village.

That amounts to a village share of about $108,000 for the taxiway project, he said.

The airport doesn’t use money from the village’s general fund – it funds itself primarily through rent for hangar space and fuel sales, Lake in the Hills Public Works Director Fred Mullard said.

“The airport operates strictly out of money it generates itself, we don’t use any of the tax dollars,” Mullard said.

The taxiway project is part of a larger safety improvement program for the airport, Peranich has said, and the goal is ultimately to bring it up to Federal Aviation Administration standards and eliminate a modification of standards from the FAA’s file.

The modification of standards is a document that says the FAA recognizes the

Fred Mullard Lake in the Hills public works director

airport was privately owned before being purchased by the village in the mid-1980s, Peranich said, and therefore is not up to all FAA standards.

Widening the airport’s one runway would be the next step in the project, Peranich said.

At its Nov. 10 meeting, the Lake in the Hills Board of Trustees approved spending requests for the airport for 2018 through 2023. The plan will be added to

Crystal Lake Brewing teams up with brew club to create Cherry Cream Ale Profits from the craft beer will benefit TLS Veterans, CASA of McHenry County

By NATE LINHART nlinhart@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Larry Erbach has been brewing his own beer at home for the past 20 years. Wanting to talk to other brewers about the craft, Erbach joined a local brew club called Midnight Carboys.

“We meet on the second Thursday of every month at Duke’s Alehouse to talk about brewing and different techniques,” Erbach said.

“Midnight Carboys is full of talented brewers, and Crystal Lake Brewing wanted to show that off,” said John O’Fallon, who is both a member of the Midnight Carboys and co-owner of Crystal Lake Brewing.

In the fall, Crystal Lake Brewing

held a competition where Midnight Carboys members had to make their own special beer by using cherry concentrate. After the club voted on the best three, O’Fallon then looked at those three beers and determined the winner.

“My beer, a cherry cream ale, won,” Erbach said.

Erbach, of Crystal Lake, was then invited into the brewery where he got to brew his creation alongside brewmaster Ryan Clooney.

“Clooney is so patient about his craft,” Erbach said. “And all the people at the brewery are very welcoming and a great asset to Crystal Lake.”

Erbach described his creation as a lighter beer that’s not overly bitter with a subtle cherry aftertaste.

“It’s a real good beer for those who want to try beer for the first time,” Erbach said. “We call it a gateway beer.”

O’Fallon said the beer will be on tap at the brewery sometime in early December and should remain available for one to three weeks.

“It’s a real good beer for those who want to try beer for the first time. We call it a gateway beer.”

Larry Erbach Midnight Carboys brew club member “I think this beer will be really successful and go fast,” O’Fallon said.

“And giving a home brewer a chance to see their beer in our brewery wasn’t the only reason for this competition,” O’Fallon said.

The competition also was created to raise money and awareness for two local charities.

“Our brewery and Midnight Carboys each selected a local charity that all the profits from the beer will be going to,” O’Fallon said. “The two charities selected were CASA of McHenry County and TLS Veterans, because they do such wonderful things.”

ALGONQUIN – The village of Algonquin has launched its new website, which features a mobile-friendly design.

The redesigned website, www.algonquin.org, can be viewed on smartphones, tablets or laptop and desktop computers, and is compliant with all federal accessibility requirements, Assistant Village Manager Mike Kumbera said.

It also places information users want to see on the forefront, supported by analytics on user behavior when visiting the site, Kumbera said.

“What we’re proud of is we’re really embracing the more service-based mentality,” Kumbera said.

Some of the most popular categories include online payments, service requests, recreation program registra-

tion and information on village services, Kumbera said.

Another focus is on transparency, Kumbera said. Documents from budgets to permit forms can be found on the website to provide more information on village operations.

“Our website is an important tool in our efforts to communicate with the community,” Village President John Schmitt said in a statement. “This redesign allows us to better organize and present information, creating a more transparent village government.”

The village’s website last was updated in 2011, Kumbera said. Algonquin partnered with eGov Strategies, the village’s content management system provider, to redesign the website for $9,875, he said.

Users can access the online chat, located at the bottom of the website, to provide any comments and feedback to the village regarding the redesign.

Thanksgiving 5K run to benefit Muscular Dystrophy Association NORTHWEST HERALD

LAKE IN THE HILLS – Before McHenry County residents stuff themselves with turkey, they can partake in the fourth annual Henry’s 5K and Kid’s Dash on Thanksgiving Day. The 5K, which starts at 8 a.m., will take place at Marlowe Middle School, 9625 Haligus Road, Lake in the Hills.

Proceeds from the event and any additional monetary donations will benefit the Muscular Dystrophy Association.

Thursday’s 5K, hosted by Crystal Lake-based Kopf Running, also will accept nonperishable food items and

personal care items on race day, which will be donated to the Algonquin-LITH Interfaith Food Pantry.

Registration is from 6:30 to 7:30 a.m. the morning of the race at Marlowe Middle School Gymnasium. Packet and T-shirt pickup also will be available during that time.

The cost to participate is $20 for racers who won’t be timed and $30 for those who want to be timed.

There will be a post-race party at the middle school starting about 8:20 a.m.

The party will feature music, children’s games, food, Starbucks coffee and an awards ceremony for the 5K winners.

• AIRPORT

Continued from page A4 the Illinois Department of Transportation Division of Aeronautics five-year spending plan for improvements to the Illinois airport system, according to village documents.

The village’s goal is to break the runway project into smaller portions so work can begin earlier. That final phase of the runway expansion is expected to cost $5 million, with about $300,000 coming from the village, Peranich said.

“Right now, nothing is planned in 2017,” Peranich said.

“We are trying to lobby for sort of a preliminary runway project that would involve mostly engineering.”

There are 104 aircrafts based at the airport, Peranich said, and most are privately owned.

He said he hopes more businesses will consider using it so they have a farther reach.

Pilots using the airport come from Lake in the Hills and surrounding areas including Crystal Lake, Barrington and Harvard, Mullard said.

“We’re the only public airport in McHenry County, so it really is a regional asset, and it’s a gemstone for the county as a whole to be able to take advantage of,” Mullard said.

CLINIC

I want a that doesn’t CHARGE a facility fee.

When it comes to health care, you want a provider that treats you fairly. Unfortunately, health systems in this region are changing their billing practices and are now charging a facility fee every time you visit your clinic doctor. This means higher out-ofpocket expenses—sometimes hundreds of dollars more—even for routine clinic visits.

At Mercyhealth’s 15 McHenry County clinics, there are no hidden costs and you will NOT be charged a facility fee. It’s our honor to care for you and we’ll treat you fairly, always.

To schedule an appointment with a doctor and save additional out-of-pocket expenses at one of our clinics that charges ZERO facility fees, call (888) 39-MERCY.

Mercyhealth does not charge a facility fee at any of our 15 McHenry County clinics.

A snapshot of McHenry County history Photo provided by the McHenry County Historical Society

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com • Sunday, November 20, 2016

McHenry County residents are a musical lot and always have been. There is much in the annals of county history citing many varieties of choral groups, glee clubs and barbershop quartets with the earliest being in the mid1800s. Church choirs abound, school choruses amaze, and community groups entertain. We are enriched because these warbling individuals are willing to share their vocal talents and time. Some groups come and go, others withstand the test of time, but the common denominator for all is the basic desire and need to just belt out a tune. These handsome, silver-haired gentlemen comprise Greased Lightning, a vocal ensemble drawn from the Prairie Singers from Sun City Huntley. The Prairie Singers will present its annual holiday concert at 3 p.m. Dec. 4, in Huntley High School’s Performing Arts Center. ±±±±± The McHenry County Historical Society will host a quilt contest and show during December, kicking off at its Holiday Open House from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Dec. 3 at the county historical museum, 6422 Main St. in Union. Quilters are invited to enter their holiday-themed or -colored quilts in the month-long show: Rock Around the Quilted Tree. All quilt-makers regardless of experience, both amateur and professional, are invited to participate and vie for prizes.

For entry guidelines and details about the Dec. 3 program, visit www.gothistory.org.

18 CRYSTAL LAKE

Restaurant celebrating 30 years in business “My mom has done a great job of keeping this restaurant a popular destination.

And she’s had the help of my sister, myself and many others in our family to keep it well-known in the area.”

By NATE LINHART nlinhart@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – After working as a server and a manager for about 14 years, Jennifer Falbo became the latest owner of Pablo’s Mexican Restaurant in 2014. Since taking over, she’s kept the former owner’s recipes the same while also turning the restaurant into a family business.

“My mom has done a great job of keeping this restaurant a popular destination,” Falbo’s daughter, Sarah Sobel, said. “And she’s had the help of my sister, myself and many others in our family to keep it well-known in the area.”

Sobel, who works at Pablo’s as the chief financial officer, said the Crystal Lake restaurant has been at the same location, 230 W. Virginia St., since it opened in 1986.

“To make it 30 years in the same town is a pretty big achievement,” Sobel said. “Especially in the restaurant industry.”

people, and consider the budget and reforms to be two unrelated issues.

The governor, for now, has set aside the weakening of collective bargaining and other aspects of the Turnaround Agenda that Democrats find particularly odious. But he has made clear that other concessions, such as a statewide property tax freeze, workers’ compensation reform, or putting constitutional amendments regarding term limits and redistricting reform on the ballot, must be part of any compromise on Republicans’ part regarding a tax increase.

The stalemate exists despite the fact that Democrats in both the House and Senate, for now, have supermajorities that could override any gubernatorial veto. The House’s supermajority of the exact 71 seats needed exists only on paper – a handful of suburban Democrats, among the most notable being local Rep. Jack Franks of Marengo, vote against unbalanced budgets and

ke

what he’s looking for in this budget,” McConnaughay said.

But if that includes higher taxes in exchange for some reforms, state Rep. David McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills, said both sides can count him out.

“I’m hearing talk about a ‘grand bargain,’ a compromise, and that’s just code for a massive tax increase,” McSweeney said. “When people hear the words ‘grand bargain,’ everybody needs to hold on to their wallets.”

After a year of operating without a budget, lawmakers on June 30 – the final day of fiscal 2016– approved a deal that would fully fund state government, social services and higher education through year’s end. Funding for K-12 education was funded through next June.

The standoff began in spring 2015 with Rauner’s veto of a deficit budget that was about $4 billion out of whack.

Rauner, who was elected in 2014 on a platform of ending Illinois’ downward spiral by enacting business- and taxpayer-friendly reforms and curtailing the power of public-sector unions, will not entertain the thought of increasing revenue without the Democrats backing some of his “Turnaround Agenda.”

Democratic leaders, on the other hand, call many aspects of Rauner’s agenda hurtful to middle- and working-class

“When people hear the words ‘grand bargain,’ everybody needs to hold on to their wallets.”

tax increases.

What’s more, the GOP gained four seats in the House – including that of Franks, who was elected McHenry County Board chairman – robbing House Speaker Michael Madigan of a supermajority when the next General Assembly gets seated Jan. 11. While the Democrats lost a handful of Senate seats, Senate President John Cullerton still controls a supermajority.

Lawmakers are scheduled to meet only three more times until the end of the year, barring any special sessions.

But a provision of the Illinois Constitution makes the first 10 days in January the most likely time that lawmakers will be asked to vote on a compromise, provided one is even reached in the first place.

The number of votes needed to pass a budget increases from a simple majority – 60 in the House and 30 in the Senate – to a supermajority from the end of session May 31 to the end of the calendar year, or 67 in the House and 36 in the Senate. But the threshold reverts back to simple majority with the new year, which would make it easier for lawmakers to pass a compromise in a lame-duck session. Re-elected lawmakers know they are “safe,” and the votes of outgoing lawmakers who have nothing to lose – and possibly something to

gain in exchange – can be easier courted.

If this sounds familiar, it’s because lawmakers exploited this to pass the ballyhooed 67 percent income tax increase. Lawmakers in the final hours of session in January 2011, just after the gubernatorial election that former Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn won, passed the four-year increase on a simple majority vote with the help of a dozen lawmakers leaving office – six of them, including two who campaigned against a tax increase, subsequently ended up appointed to lucrative government jobs.

McConnaughay, like others before her, said that a compromise has to be reached in which the state can have a budget while enacting policies aimed at stopping people and jobs from fleeing to other states. The problem, she said, can’t be solved “on the backs of our existing tax base.”

“The sign of a good bargain is one in which everyone gets some of what they believe is important, and some things that make them unhappy,” McConnaughay said.

But lawmakers such as McSweeney, who oppose taking any more money away from taxpayers, call the whole thing “political theater” and criticize the ongoing closed-door working group meetings.

“That’s my frustration. My top concern is a lame-duck tax increase,” McSweeney said.

STATE Study: Women’s prison treats inmates too harshly

By JOHN O’CONNOR The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Inmates at Illinois’ major women’s prison have been called “crazy” and “worthless” by corrections officers, are sometimes placed in an unpadded open-bar “crisis cage” and receive harsher discipline than men for similar offenses, a study released Friday said.

The federally funded review conducted for the Illinois Department of Corrections found that the mostly nonviolent women at Logan Correctional Center in Lincoln are often classified as higher security risks than necessary, which with disproportionate discipline needlessly extends their stays.

Segregation is overused as a punishment and the women get few chances to prepare for community re-entry, contributing to a recidivism rate of 50 percent – higher than the state’s prison population as a whole, according to the report.

The National Resource Center on Justice Involved Women’s assessment is harshly critical of the 2013 decision by former Gov. Pat Quinn’s administration to close a women’s prison in Dwight and move nearly 2,000 women into Logan, which was designed for 1,500. The “poorly planned, rushed and chaotic” move “set the tone for the culture that exists at Logan today,” it said.

Corrections director John Baldwin pledged additional staff training.

Blase Cupich, archbishop of Chicago, elevated to cardinal

CHICAGO – The archbishop of Chicago, Blase Cupich, has been elevated to cardinal by the pope.

Cupich, who has led the Archdiocese of Chicago for two years, was one of 17 cardinals appointed Saturday In Vatican City by Pope Francis.

Cupich is the seventh cardinal to serve Chicago’s archdiocese and its 2.4 million Catholics.

Popes choose cardinals on the basis of whether they share his approach to the church’s mission in the world.

Francis used the ceremony Saturday to rail against what he said is a growing tendency in the world to exclude people

Security fences surround the Logan Correctional Center on Friday in Lincoln. A study released Friday, found segregation at Illinois’ major women’s prison is overused as a punishment and female inmates get few chances to prepare for community re-entry.

Illinois is one of about a dozen states to undergo the assessment, for which states had to compete. The report advocates taking a different approach to incarcerated women because of their different emotional responses to stress and their histories. Ninety-eight percent of imprisoned Illinois women have experienced physical abuse, 75 percent have been sexually abused, and 85 percent have encountered emotional abuse. At the time of the review, 42 per-

cent of inmates qualified as seriously mentally ill.

Although women make up only a fraction of the population at Illinois’ overburdened prisons, making life better at Logan is worth the effort, said Donna Collins, a Rhode Island state prison administrator who has helped implement gender-response changes in that state and was among the speakers scheduled to address a forum Friday in Chicago.

“It’s almost, just the way it is. People think nothing of it,” Davis said.

Chicago congressman’s grandson killed over shoes

CHICAGO – A dispute over shoes led to the fatal shooting of the grandson of Illinois U.S. Rep. Danny Davis, Chicago police said Saturday.

At least two attackers went to the home of 15-year-old Javon Wilson in the Englewood neighborhood of Chicago on Friday night and shot him in the head after an argument, police said.

“This stems from a dispute over shoes, basketball shoes,” police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said.

Guglielmi said Wilson knew his attackers and they may have been friends at some point. The shooting was not, as previously reported, a home invasion.

Davis, a Democratic member of the House for 20 years, told The Associated Press Saturday that his grandson was a victim of a world where gun violence has become commonplace.

“Women are the backbone of the family,” Collins said. “You’re hurting the community if you continue to re-incarcerate women.”

The study said there is inadequate training for staff members to deal with women’s emotional responses.

In interviews, staff members called inmates “crazy” and said they “talk too much,” resulting in more discipline and good-conduct credit days taken away.

But women are more relational and prefer to discuss things, as opposed to men, who tend to shut down, Collins said.

And women often don’t relate well to prison security staff because they were typically at odds with authorities on the street, said Colette Payne, who spent five stints in prison beginning at age 14 and was part of the assessment team.

“If I’ve been raped and you are yelling at me like my abuser, I see you as that person,” said the 49-year-old who now runs a support group for former women inmates. “I’m looking at you like you’re my abuser, that’s where the tension comes in.”

Payne was shocked to see the use of the so-called “crisis cage,” where women are placed in a stand-alone cell without privacy or padding; the department has pledged to replace it.

The report notes that inmates making “crisis calls,” in which they feel a threat to themselves or others, increased dramatically from early 2014 to late 2015, and monthly suicide attempts increased tenfold since the Logan consolidation.

Chicago police kill man who was shooting another man CHICAGO – Chicago police said

4 charged in beating as officers fatally shot a man when they saw others yell anti-Trump words him firing a gun at another person.

CHICAGO – Chicago police said four people have been charged in the videotaped beating of a man as bystanders yelled “Don’t vote Trump.”

Authorities said 26-year-old Julian Christian, 21-year-old Rajane Lewis, 20-year-old Dejuan Collins and a 17-year-old girl who wasn’t identified were each charged with vehicular hijacking in the Nov. 9 incident.

Christian is from Broadview, and Lewis and Collins are from Chicago.

Forty-nine-year-old David Wilcox said he was attacked after another car scraped his. He said he was beaten after parking and asking the other driver if he had insurance. Someone drove off with Wilcox’s car during the attack on Chicago’s West Side.

Wilcox acknowledged he supports President-elect Donald Trump, but said he told no one in the crowd that.

Police said officers repeatedly ordered the man to drop his weapon when they saw him Friday night in the West Englewood neighborhood. Police said in statement released Saturday that the man refused and kept shooting at another man.

That’s when officers fired their guns and killed the suspect. His name and age were not released.

The person the man was shooting is a 26-year-old man who is being treated at a hospital for gunshot wounds in his abdomen. He is in stable condition.

The officers involved in the shooting will be placed on routine administrative duty for 30 days while the incident is investigated by the Independent Police Review Authority.

LIMA, Peru – Several U.S. allies took aim at Donald Trump’s views on global trade, while China’s president made an impassioned call against the sort of protectionism favored by the president-elect at a summit of Asian-Pacific leaders on Saturday The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum is taking place in Peru as world leaders are on edge over Trump’s campaign pledges to protect U.S. jobs by backing out of the not-yet-implemented Trans-Pacific Partnership and renegotiating the North American Free Trade Agreement.

Trump & Romney, once bitter rivals, smile and shake hands

By CATHERINE LUCEY The Associated Press BEDMINSTER, N.J. – President-elect Donald Trump and Mitt Romney met Saturday at the billionaire’s golf club in New Jersey, putting a year of conflict aside for a smiling handshake – though they did not indicate what, if any, role the 2012 GOP hopeful might play in the new administration.

Trump flashed a thumbs-up and said the sit down “went great.” Romney said the two had a “far reaching conversation with regards to the various theaters in the world where there are interests of the United States of real significance.”

The amiable tone was a marked contrast to a rancorous year, in which Romney attacked Trump as a “con man” and a “phony.” But the two have started to mend fences since the Trump’s victory over Democrat Hillary Clinton.

Romney was only one of a parade of officials pouring through Trump’s door as the president-elect tries to fill more members of his administration. He met Saturday with education activists Michelle Rhee and Betsy DeVos, as well as retired Gen. James Mattis, considered a contender to lead the Pentagon.

Emerging from the white-pillared clubhouse on the rolling green golf course late in the day, Trump said: “we’re seeing tremendous talent. People that, like I say, we will ‘Make America Great Again.’ These are really great people. These are really, really talented people.”

Asked about appointments, Trump said: “You’ll hear some things tomorrow.”

Trump’s Sunday schedule in Bedminster includes New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach.

On Friday, Trump picked Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions for attorney general and Kansas Rep. Mike Pompeo to head the CIA, signaling a sharp rightward shift in U.S. security policy as he begins to form his Cabinet. Trump also named retired Lt. Gen Michael Flynn as his national security adviser.

Hosting the stream of visitors wasn’t Trump’s first public act of the day. First, there was Twitter.

He rushed to the defense of Mike Pence on Saturday after “Hamilton” actor Brandon Victor Dixon challenged the incoming vice president from the Broadway stage after the show Friday night. “Apologize!” Trump tweeted to the actor. “Our wonderful future V.P. Mike Pence was harassed last night at the theater by the cast of Hamilton, cameras blazing. This should not happen!”

Dixon tweeted back: “Conversation is not harassment sir. And I appreciate @Mike_ Pence for stopping to listen.”

Trump also bragged on Twitter about agree-

President-elect Donald Trump gives the thumbs-up Saturday as Mitt Romney leaves Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in Bedminster, N.J. ing to settle a trio of lawsuits against Trump University, claiming: “The ONLY bad thing about winning the presidency is that I did not have the time to go through a long but winning trial on Trump U. Too bad!”

Trump then turned to the meetings, perhaps about posts in his administration.

Trump’s announcement on Friday of Sessions, Pompeo and Flynn formed the first outlines of Trump’s Cabinet and national security teams. Given his lack of governing experience and vague policy proposals during the campaign, his selection of advisers is being scrutinized both in the U.S. and abroad.

Trump’s initial decisions suggest a more aggressive military involvement in counterterror strategy and a greater emphasis on Islam’s role in stoking extremism. Sessions, who is best known for his hard line immigration views, has questioned whether terrorist suspects should benefit from the rights available in U.S. courts. Pompeo has said Muslim leaders are “potentially complicit” in attacks if they do not denounce violence carried out in the name of Islam.

Pompeo’s nomination to lead the CIA also opens the prospect of the U.S. resuming torture of detainees. Trump has backed harsh interrogation techniques that President Barack Obama and Congress have banned, saying the U.S. “should go tougher than waterboarding,” which simulates drowning. In 2014, Pompeo criticized Obama for “ending our interrogation program” and said intelligence officials “are not torturers, they are patriots.”

Sessions and Pompeo would both require Senate confirmation; Flynn would not.

In a separate matter Friday, it was announced that Trump had agreed to a $25 million settlement to resolve three lawsuits over Trump University, his former school for real estate investors. The lawsuits alleged the school misled students and failed to deliver on its promises in programs that cost up to $35,000.

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – For Republicans, there will be no one left to blame.

As they prepare to take control of the White House and both chambers of Congress next year, Republicans are celebrating the opportunity to enact a new agenda for the country, including lowering taxes, securing the border and repealing President Barack Obama’s health care law.

But with that opportunity comes massive political risk: If President-elect Donald Trump and congressional Republicans don’t deliver, they will face a serious reckoning with voters. That could begin with the 2018 midterm elections, when every House member and one-third of the Senate will be up for re-election.

“The American public has clearly said that they want to go a different direction,” said Republican Rep. Ken Buck of Colorado. “And if we are not effective in moving in that different direction, they will take the opportunity away from us, and they will return it to the Democrats.”

Said Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, speaking Friday at the Federalist Society: “It’s time to put up or shut up. There are no excuses.”

That sobering reality has been sinking in for GOP members of the House and Senate as they begin the early stages of planning an agenda for next year.

Republicans point out that although they will control a majority in the Senate with 52 votes, that’s well short of the 60-vote supermajority needed to advance most major initiatives, including Supreme Court nominees. So although Republicans would be able to use a legislative maneuver to send a health care repeal to Trump’s desk with just a simple majority, other major objectives,

including immigration and border enforcement, would require some degree of cooperation from minority Democrats.

That could give Senate Democrats’ new leader, Chuck Schumer of New York, veto power over major chunks of Trump’s agenda. And it’s led to a call from some House Republicans for their Senate colleagues to try to push through a rules change to eliminate the 60-vote filibuster barrier.

“They’re either going to have to modify that rule, or they’re going to have to face the wrath of the voters,” said Rep. Matt Salmon, R-Ariz., who is retiring at the end of this year.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., is an institutionalist who has shown no enthusiasm for such a move. But Republicans fret that a shortage of votes in the Senate is not likely to be a winning political excuse to most voters who picked an outsider in Trump to bring wholesale change to Washington, and now want to see that happen.

The Republican role on health care seems particularly risky to some in the party. Democrats have born severe political consequences for pushing through the Affordable Care Act in 2010. They lost control of the House in that year’s midterm elections, and Republicans have used the health care issue ever since to rally their base and attack Democrats.

But if Republicans repeal it, as they are determined to do, they will be the ones responsible for whatever comes next. And given the enormous complexity of the U.S. health care system, which accounts for fully one-sixth of the U.S. economy, the potential for complications looks immense. Even after six years, Republicans have failed to unite around a single alternative to Obamacare, or a solution to ensure that the 20 million Americans who gained health coverage under the law don’t suddenly lose it.

the beneficiaries take the money out of the retirement account, it’s fully taxable as ordinary income.

Retirement accounts cannot be gifted in their current form (some charitable exceptions apply). With non-retirement account assets, you can gift up to $14,000 a year to as many people as you want without triggering any tax consequences.

However, if you want to gift some of your retirement account money to someone, you must first take a distribution, pay the income tax on it, and then make the gift.

You cannot title a retirement account like an IRA or 401(k) in the name of a trust like you can with any other asset such as your house or your investment accounts. Remember that if you do so, this would cause immediate taxation of the entire account. The beneficiary can be titled in the name of a trust, but the title of any retirement account itself must be in the name of an individual.

Last but not least, retirement accounts are different because you must start taking out a required minimum distribution at age 70½ that will be fully taxable. No other assets in your estate require you to take out a minimum distribution and pay tax on it other than retirement accounts.

Also, remember that most retirement accounts are tax deferred and are subject to many different age-related tax rules, which will be a subject for another day.

LOCAL NEWS | Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

Retirement accounts like an IRA or a 401(k) plan are significantly different from your other assets and understanding these differences is the first step to protecting yourself from triggering unnecessary taxes and penalties.

Retirement accounts do not pass to your heirs through a will or a trust like your other assets, such as your house or checking account.

Instead, they pass through a beneficiary form. You might have updated your will to include a new heir like a grandchild. However, if you do not put the grandchild’s name down on the beneficiary form as an additional beneficiary, then they could be disinherited.

Retirement accounts do not go through probate at the death of the retirement account owner as long as you have named beneficiaries.

For example, if you have an ordinary will most of the assets in your estate will pass through probate, which can be both expensive and time-consuming. On a retirement account, the funds will go directly to the beneficiaries with a minimum of time and expense.

You do not get the more favorable capital gains tax treatment for a traditional IRA, 401(k) or other pretax retirement accounts. Your other assets that have appreciated in value are subject to reduced capital gains taxes on the gain if you sell them after one year. However, any investment assets sold at a gain inside a retirement account when distributed are taxed as ordinary income, and not at lower capital gain tax rates.

There is no step up in cost basis upon the death of the owner on a retirement account. Most other assets owned by an individual receive a step up in cost basis upon the death of the owner, eliminating all capital gains and the resulting tax owed on those assets up to the date of death. After the death of a retirement account owner, if any investment assets are sold and

OUR VIEW

Union must accept reality We wouldn’t like to hear our boss tell us that for the next four years our pay would be frozen and we’d have to pay double for health insurance.

We don’t expect 38,000 members of the state’s largest employee union to like it, either.

However, there are financial realities at play here, realities any private-sector employee would have been forced to confront long ago.

Anyone working for a company with a multibillion budget deficit, which the state of Illinois has, should not expect a pay increase of any kind.

Any employer with a pension system underfunded by $120 billion would have been compelled to take actions to correct that situation long ago – including possibly eliminating the pension plan.

State workers say the governor has declined to negotiate with them and is making them out to be the bad guys in the situation.

But then, union leaders probably got used to dealing with governors such as Pat Quinn, who himself tried to stand against AFSCME but eventually ended up agreeing to generous raises for employees even as the state’s debts continued to mount.

State employee unions have fought any changes to the state’s pension system, demanded ever-higher wages and fought any changes to employee benefits.

They simply can’t have everything. In the private sector, when an employer’s financial fortunes decline, their workers suffer.

Illinois’ finances have been in steady decline for years. Already, social service providers and the people they serve have been hurt, as have local governments and average taxpayers.

A wage freeze and increased benefit costs might be a bitter pill for union members, but this is the state of our state in 2016 – budgetless, billions in debt, with a pension system that is underfunded and unsustainable.

State workers are not being asked to close the budget hole through their sacrifice alone. The labor deal that AFSCME’s 38,000 members could be forced to accept would save the state an estimated $3 billion, Gov. Bruce Rauner’s office has said.

Illinois’ backlog of unpaid bills stood at more than $10 billion last week.

Our state is in crisis mode, although you wouldn’t know it by the nonchalance shown by some leaders, particularly the Democrats in charge of the state House and Senate, who decided not to attend a leaders’ meeting with the governor this week, with Madigan citing a bogus last-minute scheduling conflict.

Perhaps this contract will make it clear to union members just how dire the situation really is for our state. Maybe that will lead to some pressure on politicians to actually get something done so state government – and its employees – can have a brighter future.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

Disproportionate military response Eleven months ago, a group of armed militants piled into a couple of pickup trucks and headed for Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon. Once there, they took control of the headquarters building, stationed armed guards around the perimeter and began issuing ominous threats of violence unless the federal government relinquished control over 1.4 million acres of national forest under their bizarre belief that as individuals we all have a constitutional right to simply take, at gunpoint, land and property that belongs to all of us collectively.

The government responded the same way parents react to a child’s tantrum: quiet patience.

Authorities adopted a strategy of waiting out the offenders, at one point attempting to gently nudge them back into the real world by offering them a police escort out of the county if they’d just quit misbehaving. Eleven eventually pleaded guilty to an assortment of criminal charges, but a jury last month acquitted seven of them on conspiracy and weapons charges.

Now, contrast the manner in

which law enforcement responded to the armed takeover of federal land in Oregon with the way it has responded to Native Americans and others protesting the Dakota Access pipeline.

In September, shortly after construction workers bulldozed North Dakota land tribal leaders consider sacred, protesters flooded into the area. As local police watched, a private security company used pepper spray and attack dogs on unarmed demonstrators. Local police later claimed the protesters were violent, swinging fence posts and brandishing knives, but the available video suggests otherwise.

Then, late last month, National Guard troops and police from a half-dozen states cleared out a protest camp that was blocking roads and highways. Using armored personnel carriers, they advanced on the protesters until a tribal elder physically placed himself between the demonstrators and the authorities, then turned to his people and said: “Go home. We’re here to fight the pipeline, not these people, and we can only win this with

prayer.”

There’s no question many of the Dakota Access protesters are engaged in civil disobedience, so fines and citations are entirely justified. But the private security firms, the police and the prosecutors have gone far beyond that. Their actions are so heavy handed they seem designed to inflame the situation and to encourage violence.

When one compares that sort of overreaction to the government’s low-key response to the good ol’ boys who brandished guns while seizing a wildlife refuge, one has to wonder how much a role race plays in all of this. After all, the federal government has a long and thoroughly documented history of disrespecting the rights of Native Americans – right up to, and including, genocide.

The police and the National Guard have a duty to keep the peace in North Dakota, but they’re also obligated to use the minimum force necessary – not just to protect the rights of protesters, but also to avoid a needless escalation in hostilities.

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 Ramesh Ponnuru and higher in the second.)

That trade might have helped Republicans in the popular vote, and maybe given them New Hampshire’s 4 electors. If a Kasich or Rubio had made gains among Hispanics, maybe Nevada’s 6 and Colorado’s 9, too. But without Trump’s huge margin among whites without college degrees, the Republicans would not have won the 46 votes in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. They might not have won Iowa’s 6 votes either.

Considering what might have happened with a different Republican nominee may help illuminate the post-election debate about whether Trump had “coattails” in the Senate.

Trump campaign manager Kellyanne

Conway said Trump’s performance helped Republican Senate candidates, and others have noted the defeats of some Republican Senate candidates who turned on Trump: Kelly Ayotte in New Hampshire, Joe Heck in Nevada and Mark Kirk in Illinois.

Those three examples don’t tell us much. For one thing, John McCain in Arizona and Rob Portman in Ohio rejected Trump and won big. For another, each of those defeated candidates ended up running ahead of Trump in their states.

The Republicans who turned on Trump were not a random sample of Senate candidates. One winner, Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, barely embraced Trump, saying he had voted for him at the end of voting on Election Day. He also ran ahead of Trump.

Senate candidates ran ahead of Trump in four other competitive states, too. Trump ran ahead of the Senate candidates in a few states: Alaska, Col-

orado, Indiana and Missouri. It was a marked contrast to 2012, when Romney ran ahead of Republican Senate candidates in 24 states.

In 2012, it looked like the party was dragging down a presidential nominee who was more popular than most of its politicians. This year looks a bit more like a Republican wave in which the nominee was the last ashore.

One more question: Does it matter whether Trump helped or hurt his party’s Senate candidates? Probably not.

Romney was pegged as a loser in many Republican circles, even though he ran ahead of most Senate candidates, and Trump will go down as a winner even though he ran behind – and appears to have gotten a lower percentage of the total vote than Romney.

In politics as elsewhere, there’s nothing quite like winning.

IT’S YOUR WRITE Be part of the solution

To the Editor: After receiving my B.B.A. in 1964 and after two year’s of involuntary service in the U.S. Army ending in February 1966, I worked for a couple of memorable years for the City Colleges of Chicago at a brand new facility titled the William L. Dawson, Chicago Skill Center, at 39th and State Street in Chicago.

Dawson was a black Chicago House of Representatives member in Washington, D.C. He is known for the statement, “Don’t get mad, get even.”

For geographically challenged McHenry County residents, the above address was across the street from one of the most notorious Chicago Housing Projects.

The purpose of the facility was to train unemployed and underemployed black and Hispanic adult students so they could get jobs operating metal working machinery, welding equipment, drafting and secretarial skills.

Given I was a white guy, I also was a minority in the demographics of the area and the facility, but I learned very quickly “if you’re not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.”

At the time, I had a good friend and co-worker who was black, and he and his wife, two daughters and me, my wife and two daughters went to the Railroad Museum in Union together. He also helped me move into my first house in Franklin Park. My wife and I went to a mixed race

party at his house on the South Side of Chicago.

Later when I was working at Continental Bank, now Bank of America, I helped him become a sole proprietor, manufacturing business forms on the South Side of Chicago. At that time, there were no other black- or Hispanic-owned business forms manufacturers on the South Side of Chicago.

So, let’s get to the present day and the many white, “not my president” protesters in Chicago near Trump Tower.

And full disclosure, I never voted for Barrack Obama. However, like it or not, he is my president.

So, now I’m asking, what have these protesters or you Northwest Herald readers done to be part of the solution?

During the presidential campaign, it commonly was said by analysts on the left and the right any other Republican nominee would be beating Hillary Clinton handily. (Well, maybe any other Republican except for Ben Carson.) That piece of conventional wisdom should have been a clue those analysts were underestimating Donald Trump’s chances: If anyone else would have beaten her, it meant she was a very weak candidate; and if she was so weak, maybe he would beat her, too.

The actual results suggest this pre-election mantra was wrong: Other Republicans wouldn’t have beaten her as soundly in the Electoral College as Trump did. A more conventional Republican candidate than Trump – say, Marco Rubio or John Kasich – probably would have won more white voters with college degrees and fewer white voters without those degrees.

Anti-soda money pours in Billionaires put pop in advocates’ push for taxes on sugary drinks

By CANDICE CHOI The Associated Press NEW YORK – After years of stamping out soda tax proposals with well-financed campaigns, Big Soda is suddenly finding itself up against bigger adversaries.

Voters and lawmakers in five municipalities such as San Francisco and the county that includes Chicago approved special taxes on sugary drinks Nov. 8, with advocates saying the victories point to a change in public attitudes and the beginning of a movement. What’s also changed, though, is that they’re now backed by billionaire Michael Bloomberg, who as mayor of New York lost a bruising fight to limit the size of sugary drinks.

The soda industry dismisses the notion that the measures amount to a movement, and says the proposals are being pushed in places more likely to pass them.

“It’s sort of a pesky thing that comes up now and then,” Susan Neely, president of the American Beverage Association that represents Coke, Pepsi and others, said before the election.

Seven U.S. cities now have special, per-ounce taxes on sugary drinks. All were approved in the past two years, and got backing from Bloomberg Philanthropies, as well as from Laura and John Arnold, the latter of whom ran a hedge fund.

Others that passed Nov. 8 were in Oakland and Albany, California, and Boulder, Colorado. They follow Berkeley, California, in 2014, and Philadelphia this summer.

Bloomberg Philanthropies said it will help others that come forward.

The long-term effects of such taxes still aren’t clear, with studies of recently enacted measures still in progress – some of them funded by $10.5 million Bloomberg dedicated to such research.

Even if taxes of 1 or 2 cents per ounce hike prices about 10

Soft drink and soda bottles are displayed Sept. 21 in a refrigerator at El Ahorro market in San Francisco.

In early November, voters and lawmakers in five jurisdictions, including San Francisco and Cook County, approved special taxes on sugary drinks, with advocates chalking it up to a shift in public attitudes. percent and don’t affect how much soda people drink, the industry fears the stigma of being singled out and the potential for the taxes to go up.

Already, soda consumption has been declining, though other sweetened drinks such as sports beverages and bottled teas have grown, and obesity rates keep climbing.

Still, some see taxes as a way to curb a bad habit, pointing to cigarette taxes that helped cut smoking rates.

‘Big soda is telling big lies’

Bloomberg says his philanthropic organization is not orchestrating a national push to tax sodas, but providing help when local organizers reach out.

“These are things that we did not start,” he said. “They are bottom-up, grass-roots campaigns.”

Still, his deep pockets are putting advocates on a more even footing. In Oakland and San Francisco, soda tax supporters had at least $22 million

in campaign contributions this year, largely from Bloomberg and the Arnolds. Tax opponents had $30 million, reflecting the beverage industry’s determination to kill the measure.

Howard Wolfson, a Bloomberg adviser, also provides expertise to tax proponents, including feedback on campaign materials. In San Francisco this fall, TV ads featured the city’s mayor saying the tax would help the “smallest San Franciscans,” followed by the faces of smiling children.

“Big Soda is telling big lies,” a doctor says in one ad.

Even failed measures like New York’s serve a purpose, Bloomberg said. “The whole idea was to get a message out,” he said. “If it just went through, it wouldn’t have been a big deal.”

Wolfson said other cities will want to replicate the successful efforts to raise revenue, improve public health, or both.

Healthy Food America, which

is funded by the Arnolds, said 20 other cities and states expressed interest in such taxes in recent months. The group gives advice on how to structure measures so they’ll pass, and the type of opposition to expect.

“The industry is pretty predictable,” said Jim Krieger, who heads Healthy Food America.

A hallmark of the industry’s playbook, for instance, is calling the measures “grocery taxes” since they’re levied on distributors, who could pass the costs onto any items.

Less apparent are the industry’s behind-the-scenes efforts.

‘Low risk, yet worrying’

When France was considering raising a soda tax last year, Coke activated its “Sparkle” plan to shut down the threat.

The strategy, named for what Coke calls its “sparkling” sodas, involved a “coordinated plan of action” with local food and drink trade groups and lobbying key contacts in

the agriculture and economy ministries to “maintain opposition.”

“We believe we have all it takes to avoid this yet again,” a Coke executive wrote in a hacked email posted by DC Leaks. “It is however a worrying confirmation that there is relentless pressure on our category.”

The proposal failed, but the email, tagged “LOW RISK, YET WORRYING,” was prescient.

Another internal Coca-Cola document in Europe last year flagged such taxes as very likely to affect its business, and said the company should “FIGHT BACK.” Other emails illustrate influence at high levels of government.

When Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton expressed support for Philadelphia’s beverage tax, an executive from Coca-Cola – which gave between $5 million to $10 million to the Clinton Foundation – vented to a consultant for the company, who had worked for Clinton at the State Department.

“Really??? After all we have done. I hope this has been falsely reported,” the executive wrote in an email first reported

by The Daily Caller. Despite its efforts to get Clinton to “walk back” her comments, Coca-Cola noted that she did not.

But increasingly, such strategies are butting up against better-organized advocates.

In the meantime, Coke and Pepsi say they’re working to steer people toward lower-calorie drinks through marketing and reformulation, which they say is more effective than taxation. Coca-Cola spokesman Matt Echols said the taxes hurt such efforts, and approving them allows lawmakers to then push them “higher and higher.”

That’s the case in Mexico, which is already considering doubling the 1-peso per liter tax. The measure, enacted in 2014, was backed by Bloomberg.

Is this plan to sell home too intense?

Dear Dave: My wife and I make a little over $50,000 a year combined, and we’re almost debt-free. Right now, we have $50,000 left on our mortgage and $4,000 in student loans left to pay.

We’re both really excited about the future, and we’re thinking about selling our home and moving into a trailer her parents own. On top of this, we’d like to save my wife’s entire salary for five years to buy another, better house. What do you think of this plan?

– Travis Dear Travis: Man, I’m really excited

for you two. You’re working hard to take control of your finances and pay off debt. This is what I mean when I use the phrase “gazelle intensity.”

Despite a really rocky road the last

DAVE SAYS Dave Ramsey several years, the housing and real estate market is finally starting to rebound. At this point, there’s every indication that your home is going to go up in value. If you go with your plan, you’re going to lose all that appreciation value and lower your standard of living at the same time.

While you have something of a modest income, I think you make enough money to pay off the house and become prosperous during the next five to seven years, without going to the extreme.

Keep up the great work!

– Anna Dear Anna: You don’t want to go

completely without insurance, because you’ll get penalized by the government. Remember, when it comes to health insurance, the problem usually isn’t a kidney stone or a trip to the emergency room for a few stitches.

You might want to check into an HSA (Health Savings Account) type of plan within the exchanges. Another

thing you could look at is one of the medical sharing programs through a Christian organization such as Christian Healthcare Ministries.

But a higher deductible, HSA-type plan might help keep your premiums down. It’s sad, but this is what Obamacare has done to independent people like you and me who are self-employed. It’s destroying small group plans, and I guess that was their intent. I suppose they wanted to put those companies out of business, so the government could take it over.

Surgery abroad goes wrong after infection takes hold Dear Abby: I’m 42, and the mother of three children. I love my kids, but after many years of wanting to do something about my “mommy belly,” I decided to have a tummy tuck.

As a woman of color, my preference was for a sculpted, curvy shape. For aesthetic reasons, I liked the work being done in a certain foreign country. That it was cheaper there was an added plus.

After months of researching, I settled on a board-certified doctor. His before and after pictures were great, and I was told he and the clinic had a “zero percent infection rate.”

Two weeks after I returned home, things quickly went bad. Fluid drained from my tummy tuck and belly button incisions. A local plastic surgeon sent me immediately to an emergency room.

At the ER, my fever was 102 and I was admitted to the hospital, where I was diagnosed with mycobacterium abscessus

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips infection. I was hospitalized for 11 days and had surgery to manually clear the infection from my abdomen. I was sent home with a PICC line so I could continue receiving my IV meds at home.

Two months after my elective surgery, I cannot stand up straight due to the pain. The experience has been awful, and it’s still far from over. I’m still on IV antibiotics, have daily nursing visits, multiple visits to the ER and have had multiple surgeries.

I won’t be able to work for three to six months, and my medical bills are over $100,000. (Thank goodness I have health insurance!) The side effects of the meds I’m on are nausea, diarrhea, lack of appetite and drowsiness.

It’s hard for me to take care of myself or my children. I feel guilty about the pain I’m causing my family, and I’m so depressed I don’t like going places and have withdrawn from those closest to me.

I know infections are a risk with any surgical procedure and this could have happened in America, but the fact is, this infection is known to be caused by poor sterilization in the OR, and this should have been avoidable if the proper sterilization procedures were followed.

When I contacted the doctor who did my surgery, he denied I got it from him. He offered to repair any cosmetic damage, but I’d be crazy to go back there for additional procedures. He’s in no way accountable, and the system over there promotes that. As an American, I have no recourse. I’m just stuck here suffering.

I know others may have had wonderful experiences, but I want to shed light

Big Brothers Big Sisters of McHenry County www.bbbsmchenry.org • 815-385-3855

on life after surgery abroad that went wrong. I also want to encourage others to make sure they plan for the worst-case scenario: Consider who will provide extended care to your kids during periods of hospitalization, how you will pay your astronomical medical bills, and whether you can afford living on reduced or no income for the duration of treatment, which can be several months.

Thanks for printing this, Abby. –

Lesson Learned Dear Lesson Learned: Wow. I’m very

sorry you learned all this the hard way.

I hope your experience will alert readers to the fact that there’s risk involved when considering surgery in countries where the regulation of hospitals and surgical facilities may not be up to American standards.

DeKalb quarterback Derek Kyler broke free on a 26-yard scramble on his first carry of the game but finished with seven carries for minus-27 yards. He was sacked six times after that (three by Joe Perhats, two by Jeff Jenkins and one by Nik Koelblinger).

way to a 54-35 victory in their Class 6A football semifinal Saturday at Prairie Ridge Athletic Stadium. They will play Springfield Sacred Heart-Griffin in the state championship game at 1 p.m. Saturday at Illinois’ Memorial Stadium.

“It was good for our team to finally face a team that pushed us,” said Wolves fullback Manny Ebirim, who ran for 184 yards and scored two second-half touchdowns. “We haven’t faced a team that played so physical, that was a really good game for us. Once we were able to

focus back up, we were able to bring it back together and the plays were going our way. It was a great feeling.”

No. 1-seeded Prairie Ridge (13-0) will try to win its second state title in six years. No. 7 DeKalb (10-3) had four Kyler touchdown passes of 60 yards or longer.

Wolves coach Chris Schremp did not share Jenkins’ fondness for being in a tight game after seeing the Barbs’ faststrike capability.

• PRAIRIE RIDGE Continued from page 2 “Not against an offense that can score as quickly as they can,” Schremp said. “They’ve got some unbelievable athletes. They played well. Some of their quarterback’s best throws are on the run. Joe (Perhats) was able to get free and finish plays off. That was the key, finally getting him down.”

Kyler hit Northern Illinois University commit Cole Tucker for scoring strikes of 64 and 80 yards in the first half. Kyler, who was named with Evans to the Illinois High School Football Coaches Association Class 6A

All-State Team on Friday, also threw an 80-yard touchdown pass to Zuerek Day. The Barbs trailed, 30-21, at halftime, and received the second-half kickoff.

“They brought a couple extra guys; they were moving some guys around,” DeKalb coach Matt Weckler said.

“That second or two Derek had in the first half to complete passes we didn’t have in the second half. That was the difference. Hats off to [Prairie Ridge].

They’re phenomenal. For us to come in and compete with them, I’m proud of our kids.”

Evans ran for 197 of his 229 yards in the first half, then handed off often to Ebirim in the second half. The Wolves’

defense came up with three stops, and the offense scored after each of those.

“We knew on offense we could score,” Evans said. “If we kept putting up points, we knew we would come out on top. We knew the defense would stop them once or twice.”

Prairie Ridge, which finished with 538 total yards, will play for its second state football championship. The Wolves won the 2011 6A state title and were close to reaching the championship game last year before losing to Montini, 35-27, in the semifinals.

“This is unreal,” Jenkins said. “I’ve been dreaming of this since I started high school football. This is awesome.

This is crazy.”

4 GIRLS SWIMMING: STATE MEET

Tarazi just misses 1st-place repeat

By JOHN WILKINSON jwilkinson@shawmedia.com

EVANSTON – Valerie Tarazi didn’t feel great but always believed she had a shot.

The defending state champion in the 100-yard breaststroke, the Prairie Ridge junior swam a personal best in the preliminaries Friday and was seeded second entering Saturday’s IHSA State Finals at Evanston Township High School.

She also knew well what she was up against.

The top seed was Urbana University High’s Ema Rajic, a friend of Tarazi’s who finished second last year by 0.13 seconds and had impressed with a state-record time – a full second better than Tarazi – in Friday’s prelims.

“I really thought I had a chance,” Tarazi said. “Especially after yesterday’s swim, normally I got faster in finals. So I really thought I had a chance. And you know what? I went out there and I gave it my best shot, and it just didn’t happen today, but down the road I know we’re going to have more races together.”

It turned out that Tarazi, nor anyone else, had much of a shot against Rajic on Saturday. The junior won both of her individual events, setting state records in both.

Tarazi, competing for the Crystal Lake co-op team, finished second in the breaststroke and sixth in the 200 individual medley.

“Today my times really weren’t where I wanted them to be, just kind of slow and sluggish in general,” Tarazi said. “My warmup felt pretty good, and then just throughout the races today they were sluggish, and I got a lot of lactic acid in my muscles and they just weren’t where I wanted. My 200 IM, I just tried to shake it off and [in the breaststroke] I’m happy, I got second behind the state record holder, and you can’t really ask for better than that.”

In the breaststroke, Tarazi swam a 1:02.9, with Rajic winning the race in 1:00.77. For Tarazi, it was a full second slower than she had been Friday.

“She swam better yesterday than she did today,” Crystal Lake co-op coach Stephanie Wozny said. “Yesterday’s breaststroke was a lifetime best time. But there’s a lot of pressure to come back on Day 2; there’s a lot of pressure to come back and repeat as a state champion.

“She did really well today. Getting second to Ema in the 100 breaststroke is still quite an accomplishment, and she should be pretty proud of that. I think she did well, and next year just give it all you’ve got because it’s it.”

With the two being juniors, there could be a third round of the rivalry for a

100 breaststroke: 2. Valerie Tarazi (Crystal Lake co-op/Prairie Ridge) 1:02.90 state title next year.

“That’s what’s great about having her in the same class as me, is we can always have that competition,” Tarazi said. “We race a lot during club season, too, and we’re in Olympic Trials together. We just have that great relationship, and whoever comes out on top comes out on top, and that’s what’s fun about swimming.”

Earlier in the day, Tarazi finished sixth in the championship final of the 200 individual medley with a time of 2:05.

59, five seconds behind Rajic’s winning time. Tarazi was more than three seconds slower than her prelim time, which she hadn’t been particularly happy with Friday.

She stayed in the pool for a few moments afterward, and although her smile and bubbly personality quickly returned, it was the closest she came to

a look of disappointment.

Despite her relative frustration, it was the second year in a row that Tarazi has finished top-six in both events. She now has a state title, two second-place finishes, a fifth, a sixth and a ninth across three different events.

It was a bittersweet day for the other local finalist, as well. McHenry’s Payton Lange wasn’t able to improve on either of her times, but she became the first McHenry girl to medal since Brianne Fowles won a state title in 1995.

Lange took sixth in the 100 freestyle, swimming a 51.95. In her first race of the day, the 50 freestyle, Lange took fifth in the consolation final, 11th overall, with

a time of 24.09.

“It was a lot of fun, and I feel like there’s a lot of things I could improve on, but that’s what I’m excited about,” Lange said. “I’m excited to go and work again and then improve on what I know I can do better.”

While Lange wasn’t thrilled with the performances, her second trip to state was a step forward after not advancing past prelims last year.

“My experience this year was a lot different from last year,” Lange said. “So I can’t wait ‘til next year because I want to build off each year. I want to get better.”

GOLF ROUNDUP

Hughes leads by 1 entering final round of RSM Classic The ASSOCIATED PRESS ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. – Mackenzie Hughes atoned for a triple bogey that cost him the lead by making a tough par save and three birdies Saturday for a 2-under-par 68, giving the Canadian rookie a one-shot advantage going into the final round of the RSM Classic.

Next up at Sea Island is 18 holes in the final group with Billy Horschel and Camilo Villegas.

Five events into his rookie season, the 25-year-old Hughes showed plenty of poise. He had gone bogey-free for the first 46 hole of the tournament when he tried to do too much from an awkward lie in fairway bunker on No. 11. The ball stayed in the bunker in a depressed lie, and he compounded his mistakes by dumping his third shot into another bunker, and then three-putting when he finally reached the green.

He followed with perhaps his most important shot of the tournament, a pitch from 50 feet over a steep slope to a back pin to tap-in range to save par.

Then he added three birdies with his smooth putting stroke to reach 16-under 196.

Horschel, who hasn’t won since the Tour Championship two years ago when he captured the FedEx Cup, holed a 10-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole of the Seaside course at Sea Island for a 65. Villegas overcame a double bogey early in his round and finished with four straight birdies for a 64.

Joining them at 15-under 197 was another PGA Tour rookie, C.T. Pan of Taiwan. He shot a 67 playing in the

final group.

LPGA TOUR CME Group Tour Championship: At

Naples, Florida, Lydia Ko and Ariya Jutanugarn will settle the LPGA Tour’s biggest awards and prizes Sunday at Tiburon. They’re chasing Charley Hull in the CME Group Tour Championship.

Ko needs a victory to top Jutanugarn in the player of the year race, and also would take the season points title and $1 million CME Globe bonus with a win. Ko also is fighting Jutanugarn for the money title and Chun for the Vare Trophy for the lowest scoring average.

Hull birdied all four par-5 holes in a bogey-free 6-under 66 on Saturday to take a one-stroke lead over Brittany Lincicome (66) and So Yeon Ryu (69) and two-stroke advantage over Ko (73), Jutanugarn (65), Chun (68), Jennifer Song (66) and Lizette Salas (67).

The 20-year-old Hull, from England, had a 13-under 203 total. She’s winless on the tour.

First-round leader Shanshan Feng was tied for 12th at 8 under after a 69.

EUROPEAN PGA TOUR World Tour Championship: At Dubai,

United Arab Emirates, Victor Dubuisson shot an 8-under 64 to take a onestroke lead in the European Tour’s season-ending event. The Frenchman had a 13-under 203 total.

Big-hitting Belgian Nicolas Colsaerts (66) and the English duo of Matthew Fitzpatrick (66) and Tyrrell Hatton (67) were tied for second. Race to Dubai leader Henrik Stenson was 3 over after a 70.

8 COLLEGE FOOTBALL: MINNESOTA 29, NORTHWESTERN 12

Wildcats’ offense struggles “We’ve just got to learn how to finish,” wide receiver Andrew Scanlan said.

By DAVE CAMPBELL The Associated Press MINNEAPOLIS – Minnesota’s defense delivered an overpowering performance. Mitch Leidner provided the finishing touch.

Leidner threw his first touchdown pass in seven weeks and Blake Cashman and Steven Richardson each had two of Minnesota’s season-high seven sacks, leading the Gophers to a 29-12 victory over Northwestern on Saturday.

Playing at home for the final time, Leidner found Drew Wolitarsky from 9 yards out with 6:46 left to give the Gophers (8-3, 5-3) a 22-6 lead and then ran in a 12-yard score with 2:31 remaining. The fifth-year senior, who was intercepted once, ended a fivegame streak without a touchdown pass.

“It’s been long overdue,” Wolitarsky said, smiling.

Emmit Carpenter made three field goals and Shannon Brooks totaled 110 yards from scrimmage for the Gophers, whose offense sputtered through most of the afternoon after an 80-yard game-opening march

“Hey, find a way to win this thing,” coach Tracy Claeys said. “Who cares how anybody has played?”

Clayton Thorson threw for 276 yards and a late score, but the Wildcats (5-6, 4-4) were denied on fourthand-1 at the Minnesota 16 in the second quarter and fourth-and-1 at the Gophers 13 in the third quarter. They lost two fumbles and failed on both 2-point conversion tries.

Austin Carr, the Big Ten’s leading receiver, had five catches for 68 yards for the Wildcats before leaving the field a bit woozy from a helmet-to-helmet hit by Minnesota safety Duke McGhee. The targeting penalty, the seventh time this season a Gophers player has received the automatic ejection, including two for McGhee, helped set up Northwestern’s first score.

“He knows better than that,” Claeys said.

Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald declined to discuss Carr’s condition, beyond “he seemed to be doing well” after the game. The 4-yard touchdown run by Justin Jackson with 2:17 left in the third quarter finished the drive and cut the lead to 15-6, but the Gophers weren’t deterred.

“Emotions were pretty high at that point, but we’re a level-headed team and we didn’t let that affect us,” said linebacker Jack Lynn, who had 1½ of Minnesota’s 12 tackles for loss.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: VA. TECH 34, NOTRE DAME 31

Hokies rally from 17 down

By TOM COYNE The Associated Press

SOUTH BEND, Ind. – Virginia Tech proved it can overcome a slow start and turnovers.

The Hokies fell behind by 17 points early and trailed by 10 to start the fourth quarter, but Jerod Evans guided them to a touchdown and a pair of field goals by Joey Slye in the quarter to beat Notre Dame, 34-31, Saturday.

Evans threw for 267 yards and two touchdowns and ran for another in intermittent snow and 20 mph winds. The Hokies (8-3) had been 0-3 when trailing at halftime this season and minus-9 in turnovers in its three losses. Evans threw an interception on a pass that bounced off the hands of Cam Phillips and fumbled when he was sacked, leading to 10 points by the Irish on the two turnovers.

The Virginia Tech defense shut down the Irish (4-7) in the second half.

After giving up 299 yards in total offense, the Hokies held the Irish to 150 yards in the second half.

BIG TEN ROUNDUP

Iowa shuts out Illinois; Wisconsin tops Purdue The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHAMPAIGN – On a 37-degree day when a stiff wind made it feel much colder, Iowa used LeShun Daniels Jr.’s 159 yards and two touchdowns and a punt-return score by Riley McCarron to shut down Illinois, 28-0.

And the Hawkeyes (7-4, 5-3 Big Ten) played some defense, too. The Illini (3-8, 2-6) had 198 total yards and never moved the ball inside the Iowa 30. Wes Lunt started at quarterback for Illinois and was 19 of 41 passing for 137 yards and an interception.

Lost in the final score is a solid effort from a defense that Iowa just wore down as the game went on. Iowa had 136 yards at halftime, had turned the ball over twice and, minus McCarron’s punt return, hadn’t scored.

Illinois finishes its season Saturday at Northwestern.

No. 6 Wisconsin 49, Purdue 20: At West Lafayette, Indiana, T.J. Watt returned an interception 17 yards for a touchdown, and Wisconsin scored 35 points in the final 8½ minutes of the first half of a victory against Purdue.

Alec Ingold and Bradrick Shaw each scored twice during the flurry, helping the Badgers (9-2, 6-2 Big Ten, No. 7 CFP) to their fifth straight win overall and their 11th in a row in the series.

They can clinch the West Division title and earn a spot in the Dec. 3 conference championship game with a victory next weekend.

Purdue (3-8, 1-7) closed out its home schedule with a sixth straight loss, five under interim coach Gerad Parker.

No. 2 Ohio St. 17, Michigan St. 16: At East Lansing, Michigan, Mike Weber ran for 111 yards and a touchdown, and Ohio State held off Michigan State after the upset-minded Spartans missed a 2-point conversion with 4:41 remaining.

Ohio State (10-1, 7-1 Big Ten, No. 2 CFP) can move on to next weekend’s showdown with rival Michigan, but only after withstanding a spirited challenge from a Michigan State team that derailed the Buckeyes’ national title bids in two of the previous three seasons. The Spartans (3-8, 1-7) were down, 17-10, when LJ Scott scored on a 1-yard run with 4:41 to play. Michigan State went for the lead, but Tyler O’Connor’s

pass on the 2-point conversion attempt was intercepted in the end zone.

Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio said he’d planned all week for the Spartans to go for two points if a situation like that came up.

No. 4 Michigan 20, Indiana 10: At Ann Arbor, Michigan, the Wolverines found out just how valuable quarterback Wilton Speight is – the hard way.

De’Veon Smith ran for two touchdowns in a 3:33 span late in the third quarter, finishing with a career-high 158 yards rushing, to help Michigan shake off Indiana (5-6, 3-5 Big Ten).

John O’Korn made his first start for Michigan (10-1, 7-1, No. 3 CFP), replacing its injured starting quarterback, and struggled to lead an offense that was averaging 45 points and 232 yards passing.

O’Korn was 7 of 16 yards for only 59 yards.

No. 9 Penn St. 39, Rutgers 0: At Piscataway, New Jersey, Tyler Davis kicked a career-high four field goals and Penn State stayed in the hunt for a berth in the Big Ten title game.

Saquon Barkley and Andre Robin-

son scored on short third-quarter runs and the Nittany Lions (9-2, 7-1) limited Rutgers (2-9, 0-8) to 87 yards in total offense in winning their seventh straight game, their longest streak since 2011.

The win kept Penn State tied for first place in the Big Ten East with Ohio State and Michigan, who face each other in Columbus, Ohio. If the Buckeyes win and the Nittany Lions take their home finale against Michigan State, Penn State goes to the title game, having beaten the Buckeyes.

No. 19 Nebraska 28, Maryland 7: At Lincoln, Nebraska, Terrell Newby ran for a career-high three touchdowns, Ryker Fyfe passed for 220 yards and a score filling in for injured starter Tommy Armstrong Jr., and Nebraska defeated struggling Maryland.

The Cornhuskers (9-2, 6-2 Big Ten) stayed alive in the West Division. They must win Friday at Iowa, and Wisconsin must lose Saturday to Minnesota for Nebraska to go to the conference championship game.

Maryland (5-6, 2-6) lost for the sixth time in seven games and has been outscored, 149-13, the past three weeks.

BLACKHAWKS NOTES

By MARK LAZERUS mlazerus@suntimes.com

AP photo

The Blackhawks’ Vinnie Hinostroza celebrates his goal against the Vancouver Canucks by jumping into the glass during the third period Saturday in Vancouver, British Columbia. The Hawks rallied from a 3-0 deficit after two periods to beat the Canucks, 4-3, in overtime. and unsigned draft picks are exempt, so Artemi Panarin and Gustav Forsling are safe, too.

So while some teams have all sorts of possibilities, the Hawks don’t have a whole lot of flexibility. The most likely candidates to be taken are de-

fenseman Trevor van Riemsdyk or center Marcus Kruger, although rosters can change quite a bit between now and June.

“We have some flexibility,” Bowman said. “I think we’re going to be OK on that front. It’s not something

BULLS NOTES

Grant earns praise for fill-in performance

By JOE COWLEY jcowley@suntimes.com LOS ANGELES – Jerian Grant definitely held the point guard spot down.

There was no denying that for Bulls coach Fred Hoiberg.

Two starts for the second-year player, two wins for the Bulls as Rajon Rondo was nursing a left ankle sprain.

“I thought Jerian did a great job,” Hoiberg said Saturday before a late game against the Los Angeles Clippers.

“I thought he did a real nice job keeping himself ready, keeping himself prepared for when his name was called.

Especially in that Portland game. He went out and played with great poise against one of the top point guards in this league in Damian Lillard.”

So now the Bulls at least have a glimpse of what Grant can do.

That doesn’t mean Rondo wasn’t missed. As a matter of fact, Hoiberg

again praised the veteran guard in his return against the Clippers.

“Where you saw where we really missed Rajon was in [the Utah game on Thursday],” Hoiberg said. “Our pace just wasn’t the same. We weren’t getting any easy baskets. That’s what Rajon gives this team. That initial burst up the floor.

“He’s done a nice job this year of throwing the ball ahead. Getting the ball to our wings where we can attack or getting the ball to the post and cutting off Taj or Robin.”

As far as where rookie Denzel Valentine fits in the backcourt equation, the rookie will continue playing multiple positions, including the three, but at least in the immediate rotation it now seems like Grant has moved ahead of him.

Getting defensive: The Bulls entered the weekend games against both Los Angeles teams ranked sixth in the

NBA in points allowed (97.8), and 11th in opponents’ field goal percentage (.441).

But before backs are patted remember that they were also a top five defense in early January last season, before finishing 16th in the league in allowing 103.1 points a game.

What Hoiberg likes about this year’s defense, however, is the fight. “[The defensive philosophy] is obviously different ideas from everybody on our staff,” Hoiberg said. “(Assistant coach) Pete Meyers had some successful defensive teams in Golden State.

Jim [Boylen], obviously what he’s done over the course of his career with different teams, with Indiana, with San Antonio, brought a lot of that. Just some different things that the staff has brainstormed over, and tried to put together a plan that fits who we have on our team.

“In the three straight games that we

lost, it was about effort and intensity.

It just wasn’t there, especially in the first quarter. And then you dig yourself a hole and it’s tough to get out of it.

There’s been better fight.”

Around the rim: Doug McDermott remains in the concussion protocol, and now the entire West Coast portion of the circus trip is in jeopardy of being missed by the third-year wing. McDermott suffered two concussions in the last two-plus weeks, including one last weekend. There’s a chance he could join the team in Philadelphia on Friday, but it remains a wait-and-see. …

Hoiberg said there were no plans to rest any of the starters in the Los Angeles back-to-back. The Bulls play the Lakers on Sunday night, and will have an off day Monday to rest the entire team. The veterans will also get some rest on Wednesday’s off day, with a practice scheduled for Thanksgiving Day.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia – The Blackhawks are used to losing players at the end of every season, either to trades or free agency. But this June, they’ll lose a player in a new way – expansion draft.

The new Las Vegas franchise, which is set to unveil its name and logo Tuesday, will select one player from all 30 teams to build its roster for next season.

Hawks general manager Stan Bowman isn’t dwelling too much on the looming draft, however.

“It’s not a huge concern of ours,” he said Saturday night in Vancouver.

“I mean, we’re going to lose one player, everybody’s going to lose one player. So it’s not like you’re going to lose four guys, and it’s not like you’re going to escape without losing anybody.

We are going to lose a player.”

Teams can protect either seven forwards, three defensemen and one goalie, or eight overall skaters and one goalie. All players with no-movement clauses are exempt – so Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane, Marian Hossa, Artem Anisimov, Duncan Keith, Brent Seabrook and Niklas Hjalmarsson aren’t going anywhere.

And all first- and second-year pros

that causes me a lot of stress, the expansion draft. There’s still a lot that can change. Your team as it looks today won’t be the same as it does in June, when you submit your lists.

But I think some teams have a lot harder things to look at. That’s not a big issue for us.”

No word on talks: Bowman declined to discuss anything related to Panarin’s contract extension talks.

Panarin will be a restricted free agent this summer, and is believed to be looking for at least $6 million a season, a number that will be tough for the Hawks to make work.

“I’m not going to get into that,” Bowman said. “We said in the beginning we weren’t going to give updates. When we have something to announce we’ll let you know.”

Motte back: Tyler Motte was expected to miss two to three weeks after suffering a lower-body injury Nov. 6 in Dallas. He returned after only 13 days, rejoining the team Friday in Calgary and playing in Vancouver on Saturday.

“He worked hard, as did the staff, getting him ready,” Joel Quenneville said.

Vinnie Hinostroza (concussion) and Michal Rozsival (healthy scratch) also got back into the lineup. Gustav Forsling was a healthy scratch.

10 BEARS AT GIANTS, NOON SUNDAY, FOX, AM-780, 105.9-FM

Giants lean on ‘D,’ Manning Bears try to bounce back from dreadful showing vs. Bucs

The New York Giants are hot right now, having won their past four and sitting at 6-3 in the NFC East with the third-best record in the NFC, including a 4-1 mark at home.

So, obviously, it’s pretty difficult to expect anyone who saw the Bears’ meltdown last week in Tampa to feel good about them Eli Manning giving the Giants a game Sunday.

But this is the NFL, and on any given Sunday ...

Although the Giants are hot, it’s worth noting that with the exception of their Week 4 24-10 loss to the Vikings at Minnesota, the Giants’ other eight games have been decided by an average of 3.8 points, six by five points or fewer, and all eight by no more than one score.

The only offensive category in which the Giants are top 10 or better is passing yards, in which they’re ninth. They are 24th in points scored.

The Giants set out to buy a defense during the offseason and shopped pretty well as they now are just 16th in total defense, seventh against the run, best in the NFL in the red zone and 11th in points allowed.

The Bears’ challenges start with Eli Manning, as good a big-game

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush quarterback as there is in the league, maybe one of the best of all-time, but also a guy who can be average when you least expect it.

Manning is completing 64.3 percent of his passes, averaging 7.1 yards a pass and has a pedestrian 87.6 passer rating, but he and receiver Odell Beckham Jr. have become a dynamic duo.

The Giants offense’s Achilles’ heel is their ground game – 31st in the league, 29th in average gain per rush – and inability to protect the football.

New York is 30th in the NFL in turnover ratio. It has turned the ball over 18 times, including 10 interceptions by Manning.

One note here: running back Rashad Jennings is coming off one of his best games of the year with 87 yards on 15 carries Monday against the Bengals.

As well as they’ve protected Manning, the Giants’ offensive line is average at best. The main reason it struggles on the ground and how the Bears’ front seven attacks Ereck Flowers, Marshall Newhouse, Weston Richburg, John Jerry and Bobby Hart across the front could dictate the outcome of the game.

The Giants spent a fortune on defensive end Olivier Vernon, defensive tackle Damon Harrison and cornerback Janoris Jenkins to reshape their defense, and it’s worked so far.

Vernon only has three sacks, but he also has five tackles for loss and “Snacks” Harrison is arguably the best run-stuffing tackle in the game.

New York also is benefiting from Jason Pierre-Paul playing 60 minutes each week in a contract year, and although he struggles to wrap up with his bad hand – only 1.5 sacks to date – he still is the team’s fourth-leading tackler.

Clearly the Bears’ softest spot on offense has been at tackle, and if tackles Charles Leno Jr. and Mike Adams don’t play their best games of the season, QB Jay Cutler and RB Jordan Howard might have no chance.

Jenkins has given the Giants the lock-down cover corner they were looking for, which could spell trouble for WR Cameron Meredith. Landon Collins, the Giants’ second-round pick last year, is having an All-Pro season at safety.

The Giants’ coverage units are awful – 31st on kickoffs and 26th on punts.

Deonte Thompson and Eddie Royal could be difference-makers this week if the defense can keep Manning and Beckham in check.

The Giants’ placekicker will look very familiar to Bears fans, as Robbie Gould will be in his fourth game as a Giant with only one field goal attempt so far, but clearly looking to outkick the mediocre-to-date Connor Barth.

What to watch for: Bears at New York Giants HOW TO WATCH/LISTEN Noon Sunday kickoff on Fox (Kevin Burkhardt, John Lynch, Pam Oliver) and WBBM Radio 780 AM and 105.9 FM (Jeff Joniak, Tom Thayer, Zach Zaidman) KEY MATCHUP TO WATCH Bears OTs Charles Leno and Mike Adams vs. Giants DEs Olivier Vernon and Jason Pierre-Paul: As good as the Bears’ offensive line had played, it struggled vs. the Buccaneers, allowing four sacks and seven QB hits, and Jay Cutler fumbled twice – although Cutler needs to better secure the ball in those situations. The Giants’ D-line is significantly better than the Bucs’, and don’t be fooled by a low sack total.

Vernon and Pierre-Paul are extremely quick off the snap and can get into the backfield to wreak havoc. Leno has done a solid job throughout this season as the blind-side tackle, but he’ll have to be quick on his feet and strong

at the point of attack. Adams, who will start for Bobby Massie (doubtful with a concussion), gets his first game action since 2014. Bears coach John Fox commented on Adams’ long arms. The former Steelers tackle will need to use his best trait to keep the Giants’ pass rushers back. Vernon and Pierre-Paul have combined for 19 QB hits this season, and the Bears are without Kyle Long, the leader and best player on the O-line. There is enough going against the offense in this one, and allowing Cutler to get hit often won’t make it any better.

X-FACTOR ILB Jerrell Freeman: Perhaps the Bears’ best and most consistent defender this season, Freeman is tied for the team lead in tackles for loss and has a pair of QB hits while leading the team in total tackles. He is instinctive and always around the ball, and he should be in position to make an impact play on Sunday.

The Giants struggle running the football, and Freeman – along with Danny Trevathan – can put QB Eli Manning in tough situations by bottling up the run. Let’s see whether Freeman’s ability to diagnose plays allows him to create a turnover, something he has yet to do this season and something the Bears’ defense hasn’t produced nearly enough.

STAT TO KEEP IN MIND Neither team is adept in turnover ratio, as the Giants rank 30th in the league (minus-8) and the Bears are tied for 26th (minus-5). The G-Men have turned it over 18 times, tied for the fifth-most in the league, but the Bears’ eight takeaways have them ranked tied for 30th.

Brotherhood of the traveling cap Early on the morning of Nov. 4, I hopped in the car for a long road trip. And because the Cubs had won the World Series only about 30 hours before, I decided to wear my Cubs cap the whole way – partly out of pride, and partly out of curiosity.

It was, after all, a historic moment 108 years in the making. The last time the Cubs won the World Series, a guy on a road trip might use his baseball cap to feed oats to the horse that was pulling the wagon.

But this was 2016, and the biggest losers of all time were winners at last, so how would travelers on the road far from Chicago greet a guy in a Cubs cap?

I wanted to find out.

My first Cubs encounter happened at the first rest stop, just a couple of hours down the road in north-central Illinois.

As I left the rest stop on the way back to the car, a man walking past me spun around when he saw the cap.

“It’s over, isn’t it?” he asked, excitement in his eyes. “Did the Cubs win?”

I smiled and nodded, a bit surprised the news was still just leaking out almost two days later.

“Sorry,” he said, reading my surprise. “I’m not really a baseball fan, and I’ve been away from TV for a few days on the road. But this is really something special, isn’t it?”

I agreed it was, indeed, something special. Something even a non-baseball fan might enjoy. Like a non-hockey fan celebrating when the United States beat the Russians in the 1980 Olympics.

When I stopped for gas in Kentucky, I heard a whoop from a woman wearing a Cubs T-shirt about 50 yards away. “Go Cubbies!” she cried when she saw me in my cap, and she pumped her fist in the air. She had grown up on the South Side, she said, and had to hide her love of the Cubs from her Sox-fan neighbors.

But then when she moved to Naperville

she could let her colors fly. And now, here in Kentucky, she said, it was nice to bump into another fan from back home – especially now that the Cubs were champs.

It was another South Sider I met at a rest stop just north of Sparks, Georgia.

He was a young man wearing an Army T-shirt, sitting on the hood of his car enjoying a cigarette in the warm sun.

“Congratulations,” he said, as if I had anything to do with the victory.

I caught a note of Chicago in his voice, so I asked him about it and he nodded. “South side,” he said. “I’m a Sox fan, actually.”

I thanked him for his service in the Army and also for his graciousness as a South-sider, because under normal circumstances, every Sox fan’s second-favorite team is whoever is playing the Cubs that day.

“Yeah, well, it was your turn,” he said. “You waited long enough.”

It got personal in a hotel elevator in Byron, Georgia, when a woman told me about burying her father in his Cubs cap more than a decade ago. “He lived for the Cubs,” she said, “and when he fell ill and he knew he wouldn’t live to see them win the World Series, he said he wanted to die for them. It was his dying wish that he wear his Cubs cap forever and ever.”

Another man in the elevator told of two elderly Cubs fans in his hometown in Maine, one who died sometime last week during the Series without ever knowing how it turned out, and another who died with a smile on his face, just two hours after the Cubs won it all.

We talked about all the Cubs fans who covered the brick walls of Wrigley Field with chalk prayers to loved ones who never lived to see this day, turning Cubs park into a sort of Wailing Wall on Waveland Avenue.

And then, at a Publix grocery store

in Naples, Florida, it was John who stopped stocking the produce shelves to tell me, “I grew up just a couple blocks from Wrigley. My neighbor used to be a major league umpire, and he used to take me to the park each summer and give me a few practice balls. He took my dad to meet all the old timers – Ernie Banks, Ron Santo and a bunch of others.”

A man and woman walking by heard our conversation and stopped to chime in. “My sister went to one of the Series games at Wrigley last week,” the woman said, “and she paid $2,200 for each ticket.”

“Well,” I said, “then she got off cheap, because some tickets were going for ten times that much.”

“Yeah,” she said with a grin, “but she can afford it, because she owns one of those bars in Wrigleyville. When the Cubs had to go back to Cleveland to play three games, she was charging a hundred bucks a head each night just to get into the bar to watch the game. And if you wanted table service, that was another hundred bucks. And the bar was packed each night.”

Did I tell you this was the Cubs that we’re talking about here? The Chicago Cubs – the doormat of the National League for the past century and a bit more?

It may be that future road trips will greet a Cubs cap with a bored yawn, because it looks as if the team is primed to be repeat visitors to the World Series for at least the next few years.

But for this trip at least, it was fun to be on the road, reveling in the brotherhood of the traveling cap.

GardeningTip Check plants for pests before bringing inside

Before bringing houseplants indoors, check for infestations of such pests as mealybugs, aphids or whitefly.

Afflicted plants can be sprayed outdoors first with insecticidal soap.

Heavily infested plants should

be discarded; they would need constant care and could bring pests populations to other, healthy plants.

Plan ahead for spring garden

Take a chair and a glass of wine or a cup of coffee and sit outside to soak in the beauty of

the fall garden before the end of the growing season.

Think about what you liked particularly this year and what you might want to plant in 2017.

Still time to plant tulips, daffodils

Early-spring bulbs such as

snowdrops, crocuses, bulbous irises and early-season daffodils should be planted by now to allow for proper development and to avoid a delay in flowering.

Tulips and later daffodils can be planted in November but are best stored in the fridge, not the freezer.

KERRY NENN Hometown: Lakewood Latest Book: “24 Ways to Pray Through Your Day” Publisher: Nenn Pen, Ink Release Date: April 20, 2016 (ebook), Oct. 13, 2016 (paperback) Available: Amazon.com

I believe prayer is powerful and effective. I pray this book helps others seek God more often and in new ways.

How long did it take you to write? What was your process?

I wrote the book over a period of a few months, with a writing goal of at least one “Way” each week. A graphic designer created the cover for me. After several rounds of proofing and editing, I published it as an ebook in April 2016. With some additional formatting, I then released it as a paperback in October 2016.

What’s your new book about?

Is your day slipping by without prayer? Do you keep waiting for the perfect time or some peace and quiet? In the midst of the busyness, the stress, the to-do’s and the to-don’ts, those moments never seem to come. They don’t have to. God gives us moments throughout our daily chaos to call out to him. We simply need to recognize them. When we do, prayer is no longer something we try to work into our day. It becomes our day.

Learn two dozen ways to transform each moment of the day into time with God.

What did you enjoy most about writing this book? What was the hardest part?

I most enjoyed creating the fun and quirky titles for each “Way” to pray, and sharing the stories of how God uses each Way in my life.

The hardest part was getting everything formatted correctly for publication. I’m such a perfectionist, and there are so many places for potential errors.

Where did the idea come from?

I’ve heard a lot of people talk about their struggles with finding time to pray. I realized people are missing so many opportunities to pray while they are waiting for the perfect moment.

How are you publishing this book and why (traditional/indie/self-publishing)?

I went through CreateSpace for indie publication. This is an affordable option that gets my book out there to the worldwide audience on Amazon.

What genre is your book, and why were you drawn to it?

Christian Living. As a Christian, my desire is to use my God-given passion for writing to help equip others with the armor they need for the battles they face.

What is your education/background?

I have a bachelor’s degree in social work. I am a full-time freelance writer who contributes to industry-leading websites, blogs, newsletters and magazines.

Who is the intended audience?

Adults who feel frustrated with a lack of time for prayer, and those who are interested in learning new ways to identify opportunities for prayer.

Why is this story important to you?

How/why did you decide to write a book?

My desire is to share what God teaches me, to encourage others who share similar struggles in their lives.

Who are your favorite authors?

Shel Silverstein, Stephen King

Pick one: Danielle Steel or John Grisham?

John Grisham Pick one: Stephen King or Nicholas Sparks?

Stephen King Pick one: Ebooks or hard/paperbacks?

Paperbacks Have you written anything else?

“Random Thoughts,” 2011 Lighthouse Publishing (also available on Amazon) What’s next for you?

This book is the first of a series I have planned.

I am working on the second book, “24 Ways To Serve Through Your Day.”

the leaves could be flipped over.

My inspiration was a blog called Gingerbread Snowflakes (http://bit.ly/1rZl443 ), which features a detailed description of the process. Again, starting with leaves that have been pressed and dried, coat both sides of each leaf with decoupage glue, waiting for one side to dry before applying the glue to the other side. I used matte finish Mod Podge and a small foam brush.

While this would be a good method for children to try, I did find I had to be careful not to break the brittle leaves as I brushed. The resulting leaves end up slightly pliable, with a thicker, more obvious finish than the acrylic spray.

By HOLLY RAMER The Associated Press CONCORD, N.H. – As a lifelong New Englander, I know how beautiful and fleeting fall foliage is each year. Thanks to my latest test-drive of various crafting techniques, I now know how finicky and frustrating it is to try to preserve some of that color.

I’m starting to think photographs might be the best way to capture those colors.

Since there are so many different ways to preserve leaves, I tried three methods. None of them were particularly difficult, but they all suffered from the same unavoidable problem: The leaves had to dry out for a few days before various protective coatings could be applied. And by then, some of the brightest colors had faded. Still, the results were pretty, and the leaves look nice scattered on a shelf or strung on clear thread to make a decorative garland. Here’s what I found, with each method rated from 1 to 10, with 10 indicating the least expensive, easiest and best results:

Acrylic spray

Cost: 7; Ease: 9; Results: 7

This method was the easiest and fastest, although probably a better technique for adults than children given that it involves an aerosol spray. I came across this technique on a blog called Small + Friendly (http://bit.ly/2efV0Id), and it couldn’t be simpler: Allow leaves to dry between the pages of a book for a few days, spray one side with an acrylic

AP photo

A variety of leaves are strung together and hung as a dec- Wax orative garland.

Cost: 6; Ease: 6; Results: 8 fixative, allow to dry, and then flip them over and spray the other side. I used Krylon Crystal Clear in the matte finish and placed the leaves in a cardboard box lined with waxed paper to avoid sticking and contain the spray.

I liked how this method didn’t leave a thick, obvious coating on the leaves, and while I only sprayed a few leaves, it would be easy to coat a large number at a time.

Decoupage glue

Cost: 7; Ease: 6; Results: 6

This technique was easy but a bit messy and took a bit of time given that the coating had to dry before

50 off any order of $200 or more

I had read several bloggers’ accounts of trying this method and was a bit intimidated by tales of hot messes. But I found it easy and manageable in terms of mess. The basic steps, as outlined on the blog Clover Lane (http://bit.ly/2emUMeq ), involve melting paraffin wax in a disposable foil pan, holding a leaf by the stem and dipping it into the wax. I covered my counters with newspaper and then waxed paper.

I liked the slight sheen the wax added to the leaves, and though it took a bit of time for the wax to melt, dipping one leaf after another was pretty quick. While the supplies for all the techniques were similar in cost, I marked this one as a bit more expensive only because I’m unlikely to use the leftovers for other projects.

A fresh look back at the first Thanksgiving With Thanksgiving coming up, I was more then fortunate to discover my ancestor’s notes of his attendance at the first Thanksgiving in 1621.

It turns out the original destination for the Pilgrims was not the rocky coast of Massachusetts, but Florida. My forefather, the ship’s main navigator, refused to listen to my foremother, insisted on sailing “just a little bit further,” and wound up docking the Mayflower in Plymouth, rather than the Sunshine State. And so began the tradition of every male patriarch in our family line getting lost on their way to Daytona.

The Pilgrims, especially my family, having always been a hard cider-sharing, peace pipe-smoking sort, quickly made friends with the Wampanoag people. After surviving a particularly brutal winter, they decided the next point of business was to plan for a festival for everyone. So as not to coincide with the beginning of the baseball season, they opted for late November.

The Pilgrim children particularly loved the idea of a festival, since it would be the one day of the year they did not have to work. Children back then were in name only. No one really liked them. They were small, could not keep up with adults and constantly complained tacos had not yet been invented. They had strictly enforced curfews with candles out at 7 p.m. sharp and Snapchatting being limited to a

few seconds of waving out the window at the children in the house next door.

Their lives revolved around wearing itchy wool undergarments and all day chores comprised of gathering firewood, husking corn and fetching water.

The days leading up to the festival were very busy for the Pilgrim women.

The women would divide up the food preparation tasks, based on their social statuses. The farmer women would be charged with the backbreaking task of unloading the carts of harvested foods from the fields. The middling class would chop the vegetables and ready the meats for cooking. The gentry, or upper class women, were in charge mostly of doilies. My great Aunt Prudence, somehow fell into none of these classes and brought homemade French Onion Dip. The Pilgrim men, having spent most of their time in the tavern that day, and not giving much thought to the festival, found themselves having to provide the main course at the last minute. Although rabbit was initially considered, after several hours spent sampling Simon Fletcher’s Turnip Based Moonshine, they could not come within 20 feet of any rabbit they tried to catch and decided upon the slow moving turkey they believed was laughing at them.

The festival started at dawn with a parade of children walking various animals they had captured on short leashes around the village square. It

was great fun, but culminated when the clawed animals, realizing they had not been fed since being captured, began to feast on the winged animals. Some of the rich children, oblivious in their frilly shirts, would sit on their beds being pulled by oxen and wave to the commoners amid the giant carnage of feathers and fur.

Then, exactly at noon, it was time for the physical skill event. The townspeople would line up on each side of a 100-yard field for “Run the Gourd.”

The object of the game involved the tallest Pilgrim boy over the age of 10 standing about 20 yards from one end of the field while five of the stockiest Pilgrim boys over the age of 10 would position themselves at the other end of the field, just in front of two giant oak trees. A town crier in the middle would blow a horn. At that moment, an elder, on the left side of the field, would throw in a medium sized gourd to the lone tall boy. As soon as the boy caught it, the elder would yell, “Run that gourd!”

Simultaneous with the tall boy catching the gourd, the heavier boys downfield would charge at him, with an elder on the right side of the field yelling, “Get that gourd!”

The boy carrying the gourd would try to make it to the other end of the field past the oak trees. The heavyset boys tried to stop him by using any means, including crashing into him with their bodies and kicking him

with their hard Pilgrim shoes. If the gourd-carrying boy was successful, he would be given a tankard of ale and a new pair of breeches. If he was not successful, trampled to death or let the gourd touch the ground, he would be made to wear a petticoat for the rest of the festival.

The pinnacle of the festival was the Great Feast. All of the food prepared over the week was set out on a giant table around which the Pilgrims sat.

They gorged for hours on turkey, cranberries, cornbread, potatoes and gravy. As with today, no one ate the green bean casserole except the older villagers and the Pilgrim woman who brought it.

After dinner, the Pilgrim men sat with the Native American men, smoked cigars and talked about next year’s “Run the Gourd” game. The Pilgrim women, whilst scrubbing dishes, traded shopping secrets and made plans for an early rising for the next day’s special shopping bargains at Ye Olde Peddler, Blacksmith Barney’s and KilnWorks.

And so began our cherished November holiday.

Miss the Great American Smokeout? To quit, no day like today About 40 million Americans still smoke cigarettes. Despite all the education and information about the dangers of tobacco, the rates remain high. On Nov. 17, during the Great American Smokeout, quitting was the number one message. Putting cigarettes down – even for one day – means smokers are taking an important step toward a healthier life and reducing their cancer risk.

Important facts to know: 20 minutes after quitting: Your heart rate and blood pressure drop.

12 hours after quitting: The carbon monoxide level in your blood drops to normal.

Two weeks to three months after

quitting: Your circulation improves and your lung function increases.

One to nine months after quitting:

Coughing and shortness of breath decrease; cilia (tiny hair-like structures that move mucus out of the lungs) start to regain normal function, increasing the ability to handle mucus, clean the lungs and reduce the risk of infection.

One year after quitting: The risk of coronary heart disease is half that of a smoker’s.

5 years after quitting: Risk of cancer of the mouth, throat, esophagus and bladder are cut in half. Cervical cancer risk falls to that of a nonsmoker. Stroke risk can fall to that of a nonsmoker after

two to five years.

10 years after quitting: The risk of dy-

ing from lung cancer is about half that of a person who still is smoking. The risk of cancer of the larynx (voice box) and pancreas decreases.

Even if you missed the Great American Smokeout, take a break from cigarettes for a day – and maybe that’ll be enough to make you realize you can quit. Stopping smoking has immediate and long-term benefits at any age.

You can increase your chances of success with help. Getting help through counseling or medications can double or triple the chances of putting down cigarettes for good.

Quitting tobacco is difficult. However, the good news is according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, today there are more former smokers than current smokers. The Illinois Tobacco Quitline, 1-866-QUIT-YES, has counselors to provide expert advice, addiction assessment, customized quit plans, quit kits, craving support and follow up. The Quitline is available anytime between 7 a.m. and 11 p.m., seven days a week, or visit the website www. quityes.org for help.

HOILDAY CRAFT SHOWS

Get your brake repairs done before winter

Keeping your vehicle under control while driving is pretty simple and provides stress-free driving for most of the year.

That can change harshly in the winter when your daily commute often takes place on snow and ice-covered roads, which can make every drive a dangerous one, especially when the roads are slick.

While you can’t do anything about the roads, you can prepare your vehicle to tackle the elements. One of the things that Douglas McAllister recommends is getting brake repairs done before winter arrives.

McAllister owns Douglas Automotive.

A common question he’s been getting asked is about a squeal sound that’s emitted when the driver lightly touches the brake pedal.

“It could mean that the brake pads are nearing the end of life. Most brake pads have a thin metal tab that starts to touch the brake rotor when the pads

wear down,” he said. “When brake pads near the end of their life, the tab touches the rotor and it creates a high-pitched squeal when rolling at slow speeds or upon light pedal pressure.”

If the brake pads aren’t wearing out, the problem could be that they’re simply inferior. McAllister tells his customers that they should only use OEM-quality or better brake pads.

Another customer complained about a pulsation in the pedal when braking.

That could mean the brake rotor is out of round.

The rotor overheats – like an old vinyl record left in the sun – and it warps.

“This can happen from overheating or it could be the rotor had some “run out” when it was put on,” McAllister said. “If a rotor is not true from the beginning, it will continue to get more and more out of round over time.”

Gem Talk

Steffan’s Jewelers was recently honored by the City of McHenry for achieving 70 years in business. In addition to a trophy and a proclamation, our Mayor deemed November 18th, 2016 Steffan’s Jewelers day in McHenry!

As I was listening to the mayor speak, I couldn’t help but think about how proud my Greatgrandparents would be to see how far their little store has come. After the city council meeting, our family and some staff went to dinner and my mom and aunt shared with us some of their memories of the store from over the years and I’d like to share them with you.

Here are some fun and not so well known facts about Steffan’s.

1. Teresa, her mother and siblings immigrated to the US from Yugoslavia in 1921. While they were making the long journey to a new life and country they all fell ill…so ill that they were almost denied access through Ellis Island!

2. Teresa and Harold not only owned Steffan’s but they also owned the Laundromat in Wonder Lake. In addition to self-serve machines, they offered a pick-up and drop-off service in which they would employ the help of their granddaughters and their friends to help wash and fold the laundry. Once it was all completed, my Great-grandma would load everything up into her VW van and make the deliveries. Talk about great customer service!

3. Teresa and Harold, especially Teresa, loved going fishing during their free time. Always the business–man that he was, Harold bought up two old soda machines and converted them into bait dispensing machines. They had one placed in front of the Laundromat as well as Steffan’s! It was a win-win for all of their customers. The women could get their

WILD STORY A FIRST-TIME HUNTER TRIES TO BRING HOME THE THANKSGIVING TURKEY

By T.M. SHINE The Washington Post Two days in, and the shotgun swings with my body as I straddle the wood fence onto private property. “Don’t worry, it’s my uncle’s place,” Shawn says. “My uncle said he keeps seeing turkeys cutting through to the cornfield across the way.”

This was not the plan, slipping onto private property. We are surrounded by thousands of acres of open land, but the grand wild turkey of south-central Pennsylvania has made itself extremely scarce, which makes perfect sense three weeks before Thanksgiving.

Shawn is of the Dicken clan, born and raised hunting on this mountain, his parents the proprietors of Whispering Hollows Exotic Hunting Preserve. If Shawn’s uncle actually did see a turkey, he’s the only one within a 30-mile radius that has.

I cling to the fence, watching the dust roll up as cattle stampede by. Why would a turkey hang out in an area where the cattle erupt every 23 minutes like a volcano at a Vegas hotel?

“Don’t worry about them,” Shawn says, marching toward the woods on the horizon.

My family back in Florida is counting on me to bring home Thanksgiving dinner. I thought bagging a turkey in the backwoods of this part of the country would be as common and easy as cutting down your own Christmas tree, even though my family scoffed at the whole idea. But they’ll see.

They’ll see.

The first day in the wilderness, I was simply in awe. Every step through the woods was a scenic treat: deer frolicking on hillsides, eagles fighting overhead, mist floating through clearings, a tree decorated entirely with Skoal snuff cans.

Admittedly, Shawn spitting tobacco and tooting on a turkey-mating-call whistle every nine steps was amusing early on, but now we are desperate hunters, dressed in mismatched camouflage, eating the dust of cattle while being outsmarted by what Benjamin Franklin once called a “vain and silly” bird. The hours are slipping away.

See TURKEY, page 9

• TURKEY

Unlikely hunter

In adulthood I’ve come around to the fact that I’m a bit of a coward to not at least step out of my comfort zone, better known as Costco’s organic meat aisle, and need, at least once, to feel what it is like to take part in the killing of what I so easily devour on my plate day in and day out.

Disclosure: A few times in my life, I have been the accidental hunter.

One incident involved a catfish in the canal. My pants rolled up, a plunge, and it was all a blur. Cheers went up from my friends’ dockside. I don’t know why I didn’t drop the fish back in the water immediately, but I didn’t. All anyone at my elementary school reunion would recall is, “He caught a catfish with his bare hands.”

Nothing about me twice dropping it off my bicycle as I raced home; naming it Tabitha on the way and placing it in a black drum garbage can – a poor boy’s aquarium – where it died five days later; or being found crying under my father’s Dodge Polara, holding Tabitha, and my dad yelling, “Get outta there! You’re getting oil stains all over your new shorts.”

All the firearms classes I could find are geared toward shooting the enemy. All I wanted to do was get semi-confident with a shotgun, but I couldn’t seem to find a simple instructional class that coincides with my philosophical hunting adventure. Respectable, sane people have advised me to “Just go on YouTube. You can learn how to do anything.” I don’t mind learning online how to make a bicycle out of palm fronds, but I really don’t want to learn the basics to kill on YouTube.

I finally hit on Shotgun 101. Two students wandered in for the Monday-night training class. Both are named Terry, but that’s where the similarities end. One is horrified that he killed a catfish as a kid, and the other is a field biologist who winces when I mention I might shoot a turkey. He wants to master the shotgun only to pick off wild apocalyptic marauders who may someday come after his stuff.

“I’m mostly concerned with being ready when the sh-- hits the fan,” he said.

Will, our firearms instructor, gave me his full attention, explaining in detail what I might expect during my hunting expedition. He described

The hunt

“I’ve got a plan for today,” Shawn said. “We’re going to get you a turkey no matter what.”

“Yes!” I say, clenching one of my camouflage mittens into a fist.

Last night I got a text from my wife stating: Probably get a 2nd turkey. Just in case.

Shawn points to a tree I should sit and lean against and chooses another for himself. The longer I sit, the harder it is to keep my focus on the horizon. Anybody sitting idle too long without a smartphone to play with will find their mind taking flight to parts unknown. Stare into the brush for four hours and before you know it you’re seriously conjuring up a plan to leave your entire family to start up a craft brewery on the Outer Banks with two 26-year-old bearded guys named Nathaniel.

Back at Whispering Hollows, I’m cashing in the only chip I have left.

“What about the preserve?” I blurt out.

I’m sure I can take down a turkey in a preserve.

“People don’t understand,” he says.

“It may not be any easier in there.

They can fly off at any time.”

Turkeys can fly? I’m in my own battle between shame and disappointment, but at this point I’d be willing to load up and go to a petting zoo to get my turkey. “I’m ready.”

Shawn steers the buggy along the edge of a wide path through the preserve. Nothing looks any different from where we’ve been the past few days.

We wander and wander, repeatedly circling the landscape. Out comes the noisemaker. Shawn has it on repeat,

“My heart stops, but time doesn’t. My mind is racing back to every technical tip I’ve absorbed over the past several weeks, but in an instant I’m the shakiest gun in the Northeast, sweating through my thermals.”

Photo for The Washington Post by T.M. Shine

After being wrapped in bacon and roasted, the turkey is ready for guests. and I’m taking giant steps backward, trying to distance myself when I hear it. The sound is in the same genre as Shawn’s tooter but much more determined ... and active. It’s getting closer.

I’m trying to position myself by sound and take direction from Shawn.

I crouch and quickly pop back up to take the safety off. I’m struggling to stabilize a low stance, but I keep tipping, buckling backward.

And then, oh my God. It’s the towering feathers of a warrior coming up over the horizon. A vision. It’s like seeing a turkey with clothes on, and this one is dressed like a ruffled king.

My heart stops, but time doesn’t.

My mind is racing back to every technical tip I’ve absorbed over the past several weeks, but in an instant I’m the shakiest gun in the Northeast, sweating through my thermals.

The gun blasts, and my ears are ringing. Shawn’s voice cuts through: “You hit ’em, you hit ’em!” But it’s not enough. This was my nightmare. The turkey is not only still moving, but on the move. I slide down the embankment, pumping and quickly firing again and again. “Too high, you’re aiming too high!”

“I’m out of shells,” Shawn hollers down to me. He’s on the radio, racing back to the buggy. “Don’t lose sight of him,” he shouts over his shoulder. But I’ve already lost sight of the turkey.

Huge boulders, about a third of the way down, block the view. Then I catch a glimpse of the feathers, slow but steadily moving out of sight. I don’t want to have to tackle a turkey.

When Shawn returns, he doesn’t even get out of the vehicle. I’m beside him, hanging out the side, as we rattle over rocks and roots down the incline.

I’m like a crazed “Mad Max” character, holding on to the shotgun and the monster cart’s roof handle. The turkey comes into sight, badly hobbled

but gallantly, steadily treading down a dirt path. I fire off another blast, which sends the turkey hurtling down the path to stillness. The second I join the stillness I feel nauseated. Nothing in my life ever felt so wrong. There is nothing clean or precise about my kill, nothing to distinguish it from the slow death of a catfish in a garbage can.

But Shawn is already in hunting glory mode over a prize kill, a celebration he’s had with so many novice hunters.

The meal

The turkey’s legs are blue.

There was an initial “Hey, he really did it!” and that-a-boyness to my returning home with a real turkey on ice. But as I’d feared, it immediately started to wane amid talk of how this wiry wild turkey might ruin Thanksgiving. Like Thanksgiving is that great anyway.

“Why are the legs blue?” my daughter says the second I lift the lid off the roaster to display the finished product.

My turkey is overflowing with stuffing, but the entire bird is wrapped in bacon now. It looks like a novelty act.

Still, it’s center ring, the main event.

Seconds before we sit down to eat, my mother-in-law brings out a baggie, holds it up and says, “Look what I found.” It’s the buckshot.

“How many times did you shoot this poor turkey?” my daughter asks.

But I’m cutting that right off: “This succulent turkey, this bacon-wrapped turkey.” I raise a glass.

I take a bite of the turkey to savor this adventurous experiment for myself. As I chew, there’s no way for anyone to tell what I think. Delicious or god awful? They can’t judge my expression. Not with this stupid, self-inflicted smirk on my face.

how the guide probably would have me set up in what he calls a “blind” and how it would be sort of a stakeout situation. After we handle and load the guns several times, Will escorts us to the indoor shooting range. He runs targets out to a midpoint, and, of course, the targets are of the human form, the body and head blue. I do hate the Blue Man Group, so I don’t really mind.

During that first session, the butt of the shotgun jumps up and smacks me in the face. I thought the recoil was supposed to bruise your shoulder, not your right cheek. I think it misaligned my jaw and shifted my teeth a little.

It put a strain on my expressions, at least.

Thanksgiving a chore, even with Martha Stewart’s help The cooking

By BREE FOWLER The Associated Press NEW YORK – Even for the best home chefs, Thanksgiving is a lot of work.

And whether you’re hosting friends or family, it’s a pressure cooker of a feast. Dry birds and burnt stuffing have a way of turning into tales told long after the plates are cleared.

Martha Stewart is here to help. A meal-preparation company she’s lent her name to, Martha & Marley Spoon, will send you recipes and all the ingredients you need for a decadent Thanksgiving feast.

Unlike packages offered by many supermarkets and restaurants, you still have to do your own cooking. And we’re talking about a complete feast for eight to 10 people, unlike rival services that just do sides or focus on quick meals for couples. Martha Stewart’s package is rare in offering an all-inclusive meal you make yourself.

But these aren’t your grandma’s recipes. The meal might feel like restaurant cooking, even though you did all the work. You sacrifice tradition, but you save time and avoid agony fighting crowds during what probably would be multiple shopping trips.

I found the recipes easy to pull off.

They are written clearly and include helpful photos.

But it still took a full day to make everything. I peeled and chopped and sautéed for hours. And I had to open that nasty bag of turkey guts tucked inside of the bird, fish out the giblets and make a stock for what eventually would become tasty gravy. For me, the biggest AP photo challenge was getting everything in and Some of the food from a Thanksgiving din- out of the oven in time for dinner.

with onion, celery, fresh parsley, sage and dried cherries. And while I’m generally not a fan of Brussels sprouts, or mustard sauces, several of my guests said they enjoyed that dish as well.

Right for you?

This might be a good option for rookie cooks looking to host Thanksgiving for the first time, without cheating and buying everything premade. But if your family is wedded to certain traditional dishes and cooking methods, you might feel sad – or end up visiting the grocery store anyway to add your favorites to the feast. I missed the sweet potato dish I make every year. I also missed my Louisiana-native husband’s fantastic fried turkey. And my family would riot if the meal didn’t include cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie.

Even the least picky cook is going to need to add a few things. The pie cries out for ice cream, and you might want bread for the table. Simple appetizers would be good as well, along with lots of wine. But these are things your guests can bring.

In the end, does it really matter? Isn’t Thanksgiving more about the people you’re with, rather than what you eat?

Probably, unless you’re talking about my sweet potatoes.

Sad Pauly turns to self-pity after chaotic childhood For “Paul,” self-pity had become a way of life. He didn’t even know what he was feeling or conveying to others.

He spoke in a hesitant, soft voice, rarely looked directly at the people he was with and often ended his sentences with a shrug or a sigh, almost as if he knew what he said didn’t matter.

In response, others weren’t drawn to his low energy and self-deprecating manner. Paul then used this lack of magnetism as proof he didn’t fit in.

He didn’t realize he had never felt like he was a part of things, and this original emotional tattoo had created this representative people knew as Sad Pauly.

Paul grew up in a chaotic household with three brothers and three sisters, all older. His mom was an alcoholic and his dad had three jobs

in order to pay the mortgage and feed the kids. There was little time for emotional support, and what there was of it came from two of his three sisters closest to him in age.

Paul felt different from other kids at school because of the problems at home and often kept to himself, head down and quiet. That’s where he got the nickname Sad Pauly, and that was the nicest thing he was called. He had nowhere that really felt emotionally safe; not school, not his chaotic household and not in his own head, where he only heard self-criticism.

What Paul hadn’t yet discovered was what happened to him externally wasn’t his fault, but what he did with it was his responsibility. Like his oldest sister and two of his brothers, Sad Pauly started drinking and was im-

mediately and dramatically transported to a world of instant self-esteem, happiness, freedom from worry and ability to talk to almost anyone. He thought he’d won the lotto. He didn’t realize alcohol was doing things for him that weren’t necessary for others.

If a little was good, more was better, and by the time Paul was in his mid-20s, he was drinking heavily every day. He already had sacrificed two jobs and a girlfriend to alcohol and was about to lose his apartment for lack of rent when it dawned on him what others had been telling him about his alcoholism might be accurate.

Sad Pauly went into rehab with the notion all he had to do was learn to moderate his drinking and found out to the contrary – that he had to tear

things down to the foundation before he could even start to rebuild.

As Paul progressed in recovery, he learned he had pasted on the Sad Pauly representative to protect himself from his fears and insecurities.

He discovered self-pity had taken over and unconsciously excused his drinking. He learned he didn’t have to be ashamed of himself or his family.

Sad Pauly slowly faded into the past, and Paul continued in his recovery.
