Good morning, McHenry County ...

A thought toward homeless

Winter is coming.

Yes, I’m looking forward to the next season of Game of Thrones, too. But in case you hadn’t noticed the dip in temperatures in recent days, winter really is coming.

For you and me and the majority of us in McHenry County, it’s not that big of a deal.

As far as I know, the White Walkers aren’t actually going to invade from the North, so we just need to plan ahead a little more, dress in layers, and make sure our home and automobile heaters are working.

But for hundreds of McHenry County residents who are homeless, winter is a huge deal.

Unfortunately, there is no permanent homeless shelter in the county that serves the general population. So during the colder months of the year, Pioneer Center for Human Services and its homeless division, PADS, team with local churches to provide temporary overnight shelters on a rotating basis throughout the week. And until this week, PADS was short one partner church, so those without a home were on their own Saturday nights.

Starting Nov. 26, however, First United Methodist Church in Woodstock will be hosting individuals on Saturday nights.

PADS’ other volunteer church partners include Bethany Lutheran, Christian Fellowship and Willow Creek in Crystal Lake; Church of Holy Apostles in McHenry; Sts. Peter & Paul in Cary; Christ The King in Wonder Lake; Redeemer Lutheran in Woodstock and St. Joseph Catholic in Richmond.

News Editor Kevin Lyons 815-526-4505 kelyons@shawmedia.com

Laurie Bivona, Pioneer Center’s director of marketing, said each site is run by volunteers who cook and serve a hot dinner to all guests, provide a warm place to sleep, a hot breakfast and a sack lunch for individuals to take with them when they leave the following morning.

Church sites open their doors at 7 p.m. and close the following morning by 7.

In other words, it’s no small undertaking.

Thank you to all of PADS’ partner churches and congregations for opening your doors and providing such selfless care and support for some of the county’s most at-risk individuals.

The cost to operate PADS is about $800,000 annually. That doesn’t include the money churches invest in operating the overnight shelters. Most of the $800,000 PADS needs to operate must be raised through generous community donations.

CHICAGO – New research documents another decline in dementia rates, but experts say the rising numbers of older Americans may halt that trend unless better ways are found to keep brains healthy.

The study released Monday shows the rate of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias in adults aged 65 and older dropped to about 9 percent in 2012 from nearly 12 percent in 2000, continuing a decline

Older adults with the most schooling had the lowest dementia rates, and the average education level increased during the study years.

Health care experts discuss industry’s future after Trump’s election

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com President-elect Donald Trump has said he plans to “repeal and replace” the Affordable Care Act under his administration.

Trump would need 60 votes from the U.S. Senate for a full repeal, which is unlikely since the GOP won’t have a 60-seat supermajority. Still, there could be a partial repeal to the Affordable Care Act under Trump, which would result in major changes to Illinois’ health care.

“We’re fully anticipating potential changes and looking ahead,” said Su-

zanne Hoban, executive director of Family Health Partnership Clinic.

Based in Crystal Lake, Family Health Partnership Clinic would be one of the many health care providers around McHenry County affected by a possible repeal.

“I have not heard a lot about the replacement yet,” Hoban said. “But some of the things that I’ve heard being discussed may benefit high-income workers … and I’m not seeing a lot of positive things for low-income workers.”

Hoban said a lot of adults without disabilities have access to Medicaid in

Illinois under the ACA. “But if it goes away, those people will lose their coverage,” Hoban said.

“So while the ACA has some unintended consequences, I overall think it was positive, and changing it could be a disaster.”

While it still is unclear what policies might be implemented, Hoban said she still wants to be ready in case some major changes do occur.

“If a good amount of the ACA is repealed, we’ll see an uptick in the number of patients that we are seeing,” Hoban said. “More uninsured people will be seeking our services.”

The Family Health Partnership Clinic then would likely need more staff, volunteer hours and resources in general to keep up with the demand.

“And we’ll probably need to look at doing a program where we can help people who would have lost their insurance from the changes,” Hoban said.

McHenry County Board member Chuck Wheeler, R-McHenry, who also is the president of Health Insurance Mart Agency Inc., said he’s been advocating the repeal of the ACA since its inception.

Officer accused of illegal search, traffic stop resigns

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A Woodstock police officer accused of performing an illegally prolonged traffic stop and search in August has left the department.

Officer Eric Schmidtke resigned from his position Nov. 17, Police Chief John Lieb said.

Schmidtke is one of two officers named in a federal lawsuit claiming that he wrote a false police report and falsely testified about the events of the arrest.

A dash cam video provided by the police department allegedly shows Schmidtke telling K-9 Officer Sharon Freund that he didn’t smell marijuana during the traffic stop of Woodstock man Philip M. Williams, contradicting his testimony and police reports.

Williams was pulled over Aug. 28 by Schmidtke for having an expired license plate sticker. Schmidtke said that while he was speaking with Williams, he “detected a hint of cannabis emitting from inside the motor vehicle” and called for a K-9 unit, according to police reports.

The lawsuit, filed by civil-rights attorneys Meyer & Kiss LLC, said that Williams did not give permission for Schmidtke to search his car, but alleged that he was told he was unable to leave despite a lack of probable cause or legal justification to keep him detained. The city of Woodstock is also named as a defendant in the lawsuit.

Freund, also named in the lawsuit, arrived with her police dog, Blue, several minutes later and the K-9 detected the presence of drugs in Williams’ vehicle.

Police then discovered a duffel bag containing 17 pounds of marijuana in the trunk, according to court documents.

Williams was indicted on felony drug charges and cited for driving without valid registration and driving without proof of insurance, but all charges were dismissed by the McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office on Oct. 20. Williams will appear before McHenry County Judge Sharon Prather with his attorney, Mark Facchini, on Jan. 4, 2017, on a petition to expunge his arrest record.

Williams also alleged in the lawsuit that his constitutional rights were vio-

lated. Louis Meyer, Williams’ attorney, has said his client does feel profiled and has been pulled over more than once in the McHenry County area. He is seeking unspecified monetary damages.

Meyer said Schmidtke’s resignation does not change the scope of their lawsuit as the officer was employed with the Woodstock Police Department at the time of the alleged conduct. Meyer said he hopes the situation will cause change in the department moving forward.

“He won’t have an opportunity to go out and fabricate probable cause on another case,” he said. “His credibility as a police officer is gone and once you lose your credibility, you can’t be an effective police officer anymore.”

Lieb said Freund remains on “activeduty status with full police powers.” He said at this time, “there is absolutely no information or indicia of evidence that would support administration doing anything but keeping her on full-duty status.”

Lieb declined to comment pending ongoing investigations and legal proceedings.

LITH police to make switch to digital radios

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com LAKE IN THE HILLS – Lake in the Hills police will be transitioning to a new radio system as they consolidate and join the Southeast Emergency Communications center, or SEECOM. The cost of buying the Motorola StarCom21 radio system, including the purchase of equipment to connect to SEECOM and paying airtime fees through 2021, is about $343,000, according to village documents.

Extending and upgrading the department’s analog system would cost the department about $489,000 in the same time frame, documents show.

Changing to StarCom21 will also bring several other benefits to the village, Lake in the Hills Police Chief David Brey said.

“If you look at our stand-alone system, once you get away from our village, away

“If you look at our stand-alone system, once you get away from our village, away from our towers, you lose reception.”

David Brey

Lake in the Hills police chief from our towers, you lose reception,” Brey said.

With StarCom21, Brey said there are more than 250 towers across the state, which will cover officers if they have to leave Lake in the Hills.

Other benefits include future GPS location capabilities for increased officer safety, the use of designated radio channels to create talk-groups for village events and communication interoperability with all StarCom21 subscribers, according to vil-

lage documents.

The department had already budgeted about $101,700 for fiscal 2016 for maintenance, upgrades and new radio equipment for its radio network and dispatch center.

However, now that the department is switching to StarCom21, the Lake in the Hills Board of Trustees approved spending that $101,700 on buying 29 radios and support equipment. In 2017, the department will spend $54,840 more for 12 new radios, according to village documents.

Other municipalities, such as Marengo and Woodstock, have also decided to make the switch to the StarCom21 radio system.

The old system will be left in place in Lake in the Hills for about two years, Brey said.

“We will keep the mobile radios in the squads so we can keep in communications with departments who have not made the transition,” Brey said.

Franks not stepping down early from Ill. House seat

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com McHenry County Board Chairman-elect Jack Franks will not be stepping down early from his Illinois House seat, in the event that he has to oppose any effort to raise taxes in the upcoming lame-duck session.

Franks, D-Marengo, will be sworn in next month as the first popularly elected County Board chairman, but his term as a state lawmaker does not expire until the new General Assembly is sworn in on Jan. 11. He decided to run for board chairman rather than a 10th two-year term representing the 63rd Illinois House District.

Only one session day currently is scheduled in Springfield between Dec. 1 and the end of the current 99th General Assembly.

“But in case there is, I want to be there to protect the taxpayers to make sure we don’t get a lame-duck tax increase,” Franks said.

Legislative leaders have been talking in recent weeks in the hope, which Springfield watchers say is unlikely, of a grand compromise on a budget that would end a budget impasse between Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner and Democratic leaders who control large majorities in the House and Senate. A six-month stopgap budget passed last June expires at the end of the year.

The number of votes needed to pass a budget decreases at the end of the calendar year from a three-fifths supermajority to simple majority. It’s this loophole that state lawmakers exploited in the last days of session in

ghghghghg?

How farresults are you traveling ???day’s as of XX p.m.: for Thanksgiving? xxxx Monday’s results as of 11 p.m.:

47% No Sarah Nader – snader@shawmedia.com

McHenry County Board Chairman-elect Jack Franks greets supporters Nov. 8 while he waits for election results at Offsides in Woodstock.

January 2011 to pass the unpopular 67 percent income tax increase on individuals, and 46 percent on businesses.

That four-year increase, which expired for the most part last year, passed with the bare minimum in both houses, and was quickly signed into law by former Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn, without a single Republican vote. Twelve of the “yes” votes were from lawmakers who were leaving office after the 2012 election – six of them ended up with government jobs, raising allegations of quid pro quo.

It’s these kind of “last-minute shenanigans” that Franks said are compelling him to stick around until his

term officially ends. State law allows a person to hold the office of state representative and county board chairman simultaneously.

“I was elected by the citizens to serve as a state representative, and I’m going to finish my term. Honestly, I don’t think I’d be surprised if there wasn’t a lame-duck session,” Franks said.

Voters in the 63rd District, which covers northern and western McHenry County, elected Republican Steve Reick to succeed Franks. He will be sworn in Jan. 11 with the rest of the new 100th General Assembly.

Man killed in Route 47 pedestrian crash WOODSTOCK – A 28-year-old Woodstock man died Saturday night after he was struck by a pickup truck while crossing Route 47.

The pedestrian, whom authorities have not yet identified, was treated at the scene by sheriff’s deputies and the rescue workers from the Woodstock Fire Protection District, but succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead. Toxicology is pending on the pedestrian through the McHen-

residents lose confidence in their ability to govern. Although Illinois law does not allow voters to recall elected municipal officials, the candidates pledged to resign if 60 percent of village residents sign a recall petition.

Serwatka defeated an incumbent to his trustee seat in a 2015 write-in campaign in opposition to the board’s entertaining of a tax increment financing district at Routes 47 and 176, anchored by a now-abandoned plan for a sportsplex.

He announced in September that he would contribute his monthly $98 salary as a trustee, a check he had traditionally signed back to the village, as seed money to get the accountability project off the ground as a tool for keeping residents informed of issues in village government.

The group is not only collecting signatures for the candidates, but also to form a new political party, the Lakewood Tax-Fighter Party, with the Illinois State Board of Elections.

Besides starting up a website and email newsletter, the group gathered the needed signatures to put an advisory question on the Nov. 8 ballot asking village residents whether any taxing body should be required to go to referendum for any tax increase – local governments subject to the tax cap law do not need voter permission to increase the levy by the rate of inflation or lower. It passed by a 92.4 percent margin, with more than 2,000 voters in favor and 166 opposed.

As part of the accountability platform, all four candidates pledged to step down from office if a majority of

• Tuesday, November 22, 2016

LAKEWOOD – A local good-government group founded by a trustee and funded in part through his government salary is looking to run a slate of fiscally conservative and reform-minded candidates in the April 4 election.

The Lakewood Tax-Fighter and Better Government Project, emboldened by an advisory anti-tax referendum that more than 90 percent of village voters approved Nov. 8, announced Tuesday that it would run candidates for the four open seats on the April ballot.

Trustee Paul Serwatka, who founded the group, plans to run for village president, while candidates Philip

Stephan, John O’Hara and Amy Fues Odom will seek the three trustee seats up for election. If elected to a majority, the group said it will lower the village property tax levy, improve transparency and end what it calls unnecessary spending and projects.

Serwatka said this isn’t about anybody’s political aspirations, Paul but for voters in April Serwatka to have a chance to elect candidates who can usher in real changes, rather than one trustee – himself – who acts as a “thorn in the side.”

“We have a chance here to elect a slate to completely transform our village,” Serwatka said.

Commission discusses jail’s future

Some officials favor turning building into national monument

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The ultimate future of Woodstock’s historic buildings on the Square is unclear, but officials largely agree the possibilities are endless.

Members of the Old Courthouse and Sheriff’s House Advisory Commission on Monday said the city should retain ownership of the historic buildings, but also want to explore the possibility of turning the 1880s jail into a national monument. The discussion followed last week’s City Council meeting where aldermen agreed the city should keep

the buildings while exploring profitable uses for them.

Council members didn’t take action at the last meeting, and the advisory commission met Monday to further the discussion.

“They left it floating there, I think,” city planner Nancy Baker said. “They certainly want to be able to support funding efforts, and if this is what the commission thinks they need to do, I think they can go back and take action.

[The commission] is working in the right direction.”

The former McHenry County Courthouse and Sheriff’s House and Jail were built in the 1800s. Located on the Woodstock Square, the spaces were government buildings until the early 1970s.

The city of Woodstock took ownership of the buildings in 2011, and it has spent more than $2 million stabilizing the deteriorated properties. A study on the space identified several potential uses

FROZEN BY FEAR of losing power this winter?

including micro-retail space, art studios and a business incubator, or co-working space that freelancers and entrepreneurs could use.

Advisory members plan to meet with the McHenry County Economic Development Corp. to explore the possibility of teaming up on the business incubator space, because the corporation is working toward something similar, officials said.

While city ownership is ideal, some want to make the sheriff’s house and jail into a national monument, which would mean the federal government would take ownership of the space. That process requires support from various advocacy groups and local governments, commission member David Stumpf said.

“I think that kind of advocacy can be garnered for that project,” he said. “A national monument would attract visitors to Woodstock and would enhance

• HEALTH CARE

Continued from page A3 “It was never designed to be affordable, but just affordable to those who weren’t paying for coverage,” Wheeler said.

Wheeler said the problem was there was no valve to slow the flow of access, and there should have been more measures taken to control the flow.

“Major carriers lost trillions of dollars from Obamacare,” Wheeler said.

“So I think the best answer to solving our health care problem is free market. We should be allowing there to be a competition across state lines and allowing people to decide what coverage they need, instead of the government deciding what is needed.”

Danny Chun, vice president of corporate communications and marketing for the Illinois Health and Hospital Association, said more than 1 million people in Illinois have gained

health insurance coverage under the ACA. As a result, Chun said he would be concerned if most of these people would end up losing their coverage because of potential major changes.

“This is an issue this country has faced for many, many years,” Chun said. “One problem is the uninsured often don’t seek health care when they need it, and their conditions worsen.”

Chun said repealing the ACA could result in Illinois hospitals absorbing bad debt because they may get a lot of uninsured patients who can’t pay for their services.

“Some hospitals may step up and offer them services for free or for a major discount, which would result in a loss of money for the hospitals,” Chun said.

However, Chun said he’s looking forward to working in a bipartisan manner with both parties to find the best approaches that will strengthen the nation’s health care system.

“We all agree that we want to fix things and make things better for everyone,” Chun said.

CAPT. JOHN KIRWIN DAVIS

Born: March 3, 1945 Died: November 11, 2016

Capt. John Kirwin Davis, veteran of the U. S. Army, age 71, of Ft. Myers, FL and formerly of Johnsburg, passed away on Veteran’s Day, Friday, November 11, 2016 at his home.

John enjoyed boating and fishing in the Florida sun, as well as in Illinois. He was an avid collector of weapons, and loved taking his race car to the drag strip. Johnsburg and McHenry people will remember him as a friendly and outgoing veteran who served his country well.

John is survived by his sister and brotherin-law, Cathy and Paul Arguez, and his niece Mackenzie Arguez.

He was preceded in death by his father, John, and his mother, Lucille, on January 27, 2011.

By ROBERT BARR

LONDON – Irish novelist and playwright William Trevor, a master of short stories that often explored life’s disappointments, has died at the age of 88 in his adopted English home, his publisher announced Monday.

Trevor set his tales mainly in his native Ireland or in England, where he had lived since graduating from Trinity College Dublin in 1952. He won one of Britain’s top literary prizes, the Whitbread, three times; was short-listed four times for the Booker Prize, most recently in 2002 for “The Story of Lucy Gault”; and was a perennial object of speculation as a potential Nobel literature laureate.

But Trevor studiously avoided the spotlight, even in his own works, where his voice melted away into the inner worlds of his often scarred, socially isolated protagonists.

“My fiction may, now and again, illuminate aspects of the human condition, but I do not consciously set out to do so,” Trevor told one interviewer.

“I am a storyteller.”

Graham Greene praised Trevor’s 1973 collection “Angels at the Ritz” as the best set of short stories since “Dubliners,” James Joyce’s 1914 collection.

While preferring the short story form, Trevor also was a novelist, playwright and TV dramatist.

He told The Guardian newspaper in 2009 that he considered short stories the best vehicle for studying character.

“You can take a relationship and almost photograph it. And there it is,”

spect, nothing,” he told The Guardian.

“I’ve always thought that something actually happened, the way that quite often in a marriage or a relationship something happens, and nobody knows because it’s kept away from the rest of the world, because there’s shame or something. There’s a big question mark.”

His family was Protestant in a newly independent nation dominated by the Roman Catholic Church, a minority regarded as “strangers and visitors” as he put it in the short story “The News From Ireland.”

he said.

“Often that relationship can get lost in the bigger shape of the novel. I like to isolate it and really look at the characters.”

Born William Trevor Cox on May 24, 1928, in Mitchelstown, County Cork, Trevor’s themes often seemed to reflect the difficulties of his early years, growing up with parents stuck in an unhappy marriage.

“It wasn’t so much that they quarreled; I never heard my father shouting or anything like that. They just simply didn’t get on. There was no re-

Trevor’s own marriage to his Trinity College sweetheart Jane Ryan in 1952 was happy and endured, but the gloominess of his childhood stuck to him. His characters tended not to triumph over their problems.

“If you take away the sadness from life itself,” he told The Guardian, “then you are taking away a big and a good thing, because to be sad is rather like to be guilty. They both have a very bad press, but in point of fact, guilt is not as terrible a position as it is made out to be. People should feel guilty sometimes. I’ve written a lot about guilt.

I think that it can be something that really renews people.”

Ireland’s depressed economy drove Trevor in 1952 to move to England, where initially he taught art and produced sculptures. His first novel published in 1958, “A Standard of Behaviour,” won little attention and was later disowned by the author.

Moving to London in 1960 to work in an advertising agency gave him enough free time to produce a second novel, “The Old Boys,” which won the Hawthornden Prize, honoring the “best work of imaginative literature.”

He adapted the play for television and the stage, a success that inspired him to move his family to rural Devon in southwest England.

Trevor flourished in the theater and television, and in 1973 he had three plays staged in London.

He produced all of his stories on blue paper – a habit from his ad agency days – on a manual typewriter, followed by much revision.

“It’s like cutting a film,” he said in a BBC interview.

O’Hare workers to strike on ‘Day of Disruption’

By CARLA K. JOHNSON The Associated Press

CHICAGO – A strike by hourly workers at O’Hare International Airport in Chicago will add another dimension to a nationwide day of protests by fast-food employees who have been pushing for a $15 hourly wage and union rights, organizers said Monday.

Thousands of workers plan to walk off the job at McDonald’s restaurants and other fast-food spots in more than 340 cities on Nov. 29, organizers said in a news release. The planned “Day of Disruption” will mark the fourth anniversary of the first protests at McDonald’s restaurants in New York.

The attention-grabbing airport strike is “going to cause complete disruption in travel plans for the day and maybe days to come,” said Kendall Fells, national organizing director of the Fight for $15 campaign. “Four decades ago, airport jobs were jobs you could live off of. Now airport jobs are just like fast-food jobs.

We’re all standing together.”

The Service Employees International Union announced Monday that hundreds of workers will strike that day at O’Hare, one of the nation’s busiest airports. The union has helped fund and staff the Fight for $15 campaign.

O’Hare is the only airport where workers plan to strike, though organiz-

Funeral planned for Chicago congressman’s grandson

CHICAGO – A funeral is planned Saturday for a Chicago congressman’s grandson who was shot dead after an argument about basketball shoes.

A spokeswoman for U.S. Rep. Danny Davis said 15-year-old Javon Wilson’s funeral will be Saturday at Carey Tercentenary AME Church on Chicago’s South Side. A wake will be at 10 a.m. followed by services at 11 a.m.

A Cook County judge on Sunday denied bail for a 16-year-old boy and 17-year-old girl charged with first-degree murder in the teen’s death. Authorities said Wilson was shot in the head. Police said the two were arrested after they were identified as suspects in Friday’s shooting.

Travelers line up at a security checkpoint area Nov. 29, 2015, in Terminal 3 at O’Hare International Airport in Chicago. Hundreds of O’Hare International Airport workers who are trying to unionize have voted to go on strike ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday. ers are planning protests at airports in 18 other cities, including Boston, Washington, D.C., Denver, Atlanta, Seattle and Los Angeles.

About 500 O’Hare workers committed to a strike after a vote last week. They are trying to organize with SEIU Local 1’s help. They work for private contractors at the airport and include baggage handlers, cabin cleaners, janitors and wheelchair attendants. Organizers said

it will be up to workers to decide whether the strike will last longer than one day. The Chicago Department of Aviation said it doesn’t anticipate any disruption in service.

Some holiday travelers are nervous, however. Kim Maguire, 40, of Crystal Lake, was at O’Hare on Monday with her 3-year-old daughter and husband as they headed out for a holiday trip to see relatives in Seattle, with a return flight

‘Hamilton’ audience member charged after shouting

CHICAGO – A man was arrested during a performance of “Hamilton” in Chicago after audience members said he shouted “We won!” and other election-related comments from the balcony.

Chicago police said 56-year-old John Palmer of Chicago is charged with one misdemeanor count of criminal trespass in the incident Saturday.

6 Chicago firefighters ill after returning from scene of fire

CHICAGO – Authorities said six Chicago firefighters were taken to hospitals after they reported feeling ill after working to extinguish an earlier fire.

The Chicago Fire Department said firefighters had returned to the Engine 26 firehouse early Monday and several reported feeling sick. Five were taken to several different hospitals, where they were treated for chest pain and breathing problems.

WLS-TV reported that one firefighter at another firehouse also was taken to a hospital. The fire department said all are expected to be OK. The department was working to determine what caused the illnesses, but an irritant released into the air at the fire in the West Town neighborhood may be to blame. That fire was related to a furnace at a home, and everyone at the home got out safely.

scheduled on the strike date.

“I don’t want it to impact our travel plans,” Maguire said. “Especially traveling with a 3-year-old, delays would be difficult.”

Maguire said she supports the workers and is grateful to those who clean planes, especially reaching into seatback pockets. “I wouldn’t want to reach my hand in there,” she said.

Julio Godoy, 54, an O’Hare airplane cabin cleaner who makes $10.50 an hour, said he plans to take part in the strike.

He said he knows co-workers who have been stuck by the needles of syringes left in seat-back pockets and who then needed to be tested for HIV and hepatitis.

He said he’s also concerned about being asked to check planes for weapons and explosives without training.

There had been concern that the strike would fall during the busiest travel days. In announcing the Nov. 29 strike, the union and workers on Monday portrayed the date as a concession to families.

“O’Hare airport workers often can’t afford a proper Thanksgiving dinner and know what it’s like to miss Thanksgiving with our families,” said baggage handler Raquel Brito, who announced the strike date. “However we respect families traveling to be together and that is why we’re holding off our strike until after the Thanksgiving holiday.”

Study finds hormones, medications in groundwater

CHAMPAIGN – Scientists at the University of Illinois said they’ve detected prescription and over-the-counter medications in groundwater in southwestern Illinois.

The university’s Prairie Research Institute study had researchers collect 58 water samples from eight springs and five cave streams during 2014 and 2015. Researcher Walt Kelly said medications and personal care products were detected in 89 percent of those samples.

Scientists said the two most common products found were triclocarbans, which are used in antibiotic soaps, and the cardiovascular drug gemfibrozil. Researchers said contaminant levels were “well below” human dosages, but they said even low levels can affect aquatic organisms.

The researchers also found hormones in 23 percent of their groundwater samples, which Kelly said “can cause a lot of damage to fish and possibly other animals.”

Trump auditions Cabinet prospects in Manhattan

By JONATHAN LEMIRE The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Donald Trump held court from his perch high above Manhattan on Monday, receiving a line of former rivals, longtime allies and TV executives while overseeing a presidential transition that at times resembles a reality show like the one he once hosted.

Trump met with nearly a dozen prospective hires, all of whom were paraded in front of the cameras set up in the Trump Tower lobby as they entered an elevator to see the president-elect. Out of public view himself, he fell back on his TV star roots by filming a video that touted his legislative goals once he takes office.

Trump did not immediately announce any appointments after the meetings, which came on the heels of a two-day whirlwind of interviews at his golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey.

Unlike his predecessors, who often spoke with Cabinet candidates under a cloud of secrecy, Trump has turned the search into a very public audition process. The extraordinary exercise took on a routine feel on Monday: First, former Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown stepped off the gold-plated elevator into the marble-coated lobby after his meeting to declare to waiting reporters that he was “the best person” to become Veterans Affairs secretary.

Next, Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin, a candidate for interior secretary, did much the same, striding off the lift to say she had “a wonderful discussion” with Trump. Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry declined to speak to reporters, but

he did take time for a photo with the Naked Cowboy, the underwear-sporting, guitar-strumming New York institution who is normally a fixture at Times Square but has spent recent days camped out at Trump Tower singing about the president-elect.

Democratic Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, who resigned her post on the Democratic National Committee after endorsing Bernie Sanders over Hillary Clinton, also met with Trump but entered and exited out of sight. She later defended crossing party lines to meet with Trump about U.S. involvement in Syria, saying in a statement she would never “play politics with American and Syrian lives.”

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, a longtime Trump ally, also arrived with his wife, Callista, and told reporters that he indicated to Trump that he was interested in being a “senior planner” to coordinate long-term political efforts among the Republicans in control of all three branches of government.

Senior adviser Kellyanne Conway said of the visitors, “Not all of them will be in his Cabinet and his federal government, but they are all incredibly important in offering their points of views, their experience and certainly their vision of the country.”

No one was saying whether Trump would announce more appointments before heading to Florida for Thanksgiving. He was planning to leave Tuesday or Wednesday to spend the holiday at his Mar-a-Lago estate, while Vice President-elect Mike Pence will spend Thanksgiving in Mississippi, where his Marine son is stationed.

For Trump and GOP, ‘Obamacare’ repeal is complex and risky

By ALAN FRAM

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Here’s the idea: Swiftly pass a repeal of President Barack Obama’s health care law, perhaps soon enough for Donald Trump to sign it the day he takes the presidential oath. Then approve legislation restructuring the nation’s huge and convoluted health care system – despite Republican divisions, Democratic opposition and millions of jittery constituents.

Texas, Missouri, Florida officers shot in attacks

By JIM SALTER and DAVID WARREN The Associated Pess

A manhunt for a suspect in the fatal shooting of a veteran Texas police detective ended Monday with an arrest in the killing that was one of several weekend attacks against law enforcement in multiple states, authorities said.

The San Antonio detective and officers shot in Missouri and Florida were conducting routine tasks Sunday when they became the targets of violence. The detective was writing a traffic ticket when he was shot to death in his squad car Sunday morning outside police headquarters.

“I think the uniform was the target and the first person that happened along was the first person that (the suspect) targeted,” San Antonio Police Chief William McManus said Monday.

In Missouri, a St. Louis police sergeant was shot twice in the face Sunday evening while he sat in traffic in a marked police vehicle. He was released from a hospital Monday.

The shootings were the latest in what law enforcement officials say is an alarming spike in ambush-style attacks. Sixty officers were shot to death on the job this year, compared with 41 in all of 2015, according to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. Of the 60 killed, 20 were purposely targeted by their assailant compared with eight last year, the group said.

Police officers also were shot and injured during traffic stops in Sanibel, Florida, and Gladstone, Missouri, on Sunday night, but authorities have not suggested these were targeted attacks. All the shootings come less than five months after a black military veteran killed five white officers at a protest in Dallas – the deadliest day for American law enforcement since Sept. 11, 2001.

Protesters against the Dakota Access oil pipeline stand on a burned truck Monday near Cannon Ball, N.D. developer Energy Transfer Partners has said no sites have been disturbed and that the $3.8 billion pipeline will be safe.

The pipeline is largely complete except for the section under a Missouri River reservoir in southern North Dakota, and ETP Chief Executive Kelcy Warren said Friday the company is unwilling to reroute the project.

What’s known as the Backwater Bridge on state Highway 1806 has been shut down for weeks because authorities say it might be unsafe due to earlier fires set by protesters. Protesters say the closed bridge near their main camp blocks emergency services, and they accuse authorities of keeping it shut down to block their access to pipeline construction sites.

Pence, who touts openness, tries to stop document release

By BRIAN SLODYSKO The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS – Lawyers for Indiana Governor and Republican Vice President-elect Mike Pence argued in court Monday that the state’s judicial branch has no authority to require him to comply with Indiana’s public records law.

The civil case before Indiana’s Court of Appeals was brought by Indianapolis attorney William Groth, who sued in 2015 after the Pence administration denied a request for un-redacted records, including a document related to Republican efforts to stop President Barack Obama’s immigration executive order.

Pence has long presented himself as a champion of a free press and the First Amendment. That’s a contrast to President-elect Donald Trump, who made attacks on reporters a hallmark of his campaign and refused to release his tax records as other modern presidential candidates have done.

In March, Pence vetoed a bill that would have exempted private univer-

sities from releasing some police records, calling it “a disservice to the public and an unnecessary barrier to transparency.” And on the campaign trail he aggressively criticized Democrat Hillary Clinton for refusing to release emails sent from a private server she maintained while secretary of state.

But his gubernatorial administration has argued against the public release of emails and other documents that could shed light on his tenure as governor. In some cases, his office has withheld documents, delayed responses or flatly denied public records requests filed by The Associated Press and other news organizations.

On Monday, Pence attorney Joseph Chapelle told the judges that the separation of powers established under the state’s constitution should prevent the court system from forcing Pence and his immediate staff to comply with the open records law if they are sued.

“Inquiry into the personal papers of the governor would (interfere) with the affairs with of the governor’s office,” Chapelle said. “He’s different than oth-

er state agencies.”

The appellate court took up the case after a lower court ruled that Pence did not have to turn over emails, billing invoices or a document authored by the chief-of-staff to now-Texas Gov. Greg Abbott. The documents, sought

by Groth, outlined legal arguments for the GOP’s successful challenge to Obama’s immigration executive order.

Pence’s administration released 57 pages of emails with some redactions, as well as redactMike Pence ed invoices to Groth, a Democrat. But it declined to provide an attached document that Abbott’s staff had emailed to many Republican governors while trying to recruit other states to join the legal challenge.

Pence’s attorneys argue that the governor’s office acted within its rights by refusing to release the records, which they say are “work product” that is “deliberative” in nature and also protected by attorney-client privilege. But Pence’s attorneys also

argued that an Indiana Supreme Court ruling that effectively exempted the state’s General Assembly from releasing emails should also apply to them.

The state’s highest court ruled in April that it could not order the Legislature to release lawmakers’ email correspondence because it would violate the state constitution’s separation of powers between the legislative and judicial branches of government.

“It’s extremely ironic because hidden emails were a hot topic during the presidential campaign,” said Julia Vaughn, the policy director for the left-leaning government watchdog group Common Cause Indiana. “He could set an example by walking the walk and not just talking the talk. Sadly, I don’t expect him to do that.”

A ruling in the case against Pence is not expected immediately. But government watchdog groups said that if the courts ultimately agree with Pence’s interpretation, the Indiana governor’s office would police itself when it comes to the release of public records, seriously weakening the law by limiting the ability to sue for records.

CANNON BALL, N.D. – Authorities on Monday defended their decision to douse protesters with water during a skirmish in subfreezing weather near the Dakota Access oil pipeline, and organizers said at least 17 protesters were taken to the hospital – including some who were treated for hypothermia.

The clash occurred late Sunday and early Monday as protesters trying to push past a long-blocked bridge on a state highway were turned back by authorities using tear gas, rubber bullets and water hoses.

One officer was injured when struck in the head with a rock. One protester was arrested.

Protesters and officers massed at the bridge again late Monday morning, but protesters dispersed a few hours later at the request of tribal elders after police warned the crowd that they’d identified firearms and that anyone with a weapon should leave.

The Standing Rock Sioux and others oppose the 1,200-mile, four-state pipeline being built to carry oil from western North Dakota to a shipping point in Illinois because they say it threatens drinking water on their nearby reservation and cultural sites. Pipeline

Authorities dispute that. Additional testing is needed to make sure the bridge is safe, and that can’t be done until the area is deemed safe for inspectors, state Transportation Department spokeswoman Jamie Olson said.

At least 17 protesters were injured severely enough to be taken to hospitals during the overnight skirmish at the bridge, said Dallas Goldtooth, an organizer with the Indigenous Environmental Network.

“Hypothermia, a number of head injuries from being shot with rubber bullets, one individual had a heart attack,” he said.

Daniel Kanahele, 64, a native Hawaiian, said he was hit with tear gas, water spray and a rubber bullet in a leg, and “it took me off my feet.” He was treated at the scene.

Although Goldtooth said a water cannon was used to douse the protesters, Morton County Sheriff Kyle Kirchmeier said only fire hoses were used.

Sheriff’s spokesman Rob Keller said a tactical vehicle spraying tear gas has been mistaken by some people as a water cannon.

Kirchmeier defended the use of water hoses, saying protesters were using aggressive tactics themselves.

“We’re just not going to let people or protesters in large groups come in and threaten officers. That’s not happening,” the sheriff said.

ANOTHER VIEW

Let public monitor settlement

It’s no secret some banks behaved badly during the past decade.

But the Obama administration wants to keep the public in the dark about how well these financial ne’er-do-wells are changing their ways.

A lawsuit quietly moving up through the courts could reaffirm the precedent that government records about bank compliance are public records.

The case in question deals with HSBC Bank. The U.S. Justice Department had prosecuted HSBC for laundering money for drug cartels and other entities and for violating sanctions laws.

Rather than fight it out in court, in 2012, HSBC agreed to pay a $1.92 billion fine and to reform its practices. The Justice Department assigned a corporate compliance monitor to make sure HSBC followed through. That monitor periodically completes reports on HSBC’s progress.

And that’s where the public has been cut out. The court has sealed the monitor’s reports from public view. One American wasn’t satisfied with that. The citizen moved to intervene in the case. He asked the court to unseal the reports, and a lower court agreed to do so. The unsealing is on hold, though, because the case is on appeal.

Most disappointing, however, is the Justice Department siding with the bank and also fighting to keep the reports sealed. Given President-elect Donald Trump’s penchants for secrecy – including his tax returns – he’ll probably stick with President Barack Obama’s position. But we hope we’re wrong, given his pledge to stick up for forgotten Americans.

Trump should show Americans the Justice Department is on their side by dropping the Obama administration’s objections to openness.

Judicial transparency is fundamental to a free and open democracy. If the government can strike deals with bad actors and then keep the implementation secret, people won’t know if justice truly is being served.

More than two dozen journalism organizations, including the American Society of News Editors, have filed a brief on behalf of transparency. They rightly note the courts need a good reason to keep the reports secret. In cases such as this, where there is overwhelming public interest involving newsworthy material, release should be the default.

ANOTHER VIEW

Fake news: The math doesn’t add up Facebook and Google have a “fake news” problem. Other people invent some sort of nonsense and scam social media and search engines into promoting it.

It particularly was evident late in the presidential campaign. “You can text your vote and avoid the lines!” “Trump wins popular vote!” “Pope Francis endorses Trump!”

All three were outright lies.

But Facebook’s News Feed and Trending Topics heavily promoted the first and third of them leading up to Election Day, and Google on Sunday had the second as its top result for “final election count.”

By last week both operations had announced they would cut off the purveyors of such phonies from their ad networks.

That’s good, but not good enough.

Facebook and Google each insist they are tech companies, not media companies, that they are merely conduits of content.

They don’t want the responsibility of making editorial decisions. “Identifying the ‘truth’ is complicated,” complains Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s co-founder and CEO. (Tell us about it.)

And yet that editorial responsibility is there. They choose, through their algorithms, what content individual users will see. And their passivity on ensuring the quality and accuracy of that content allows the hoaxers and con artists to flourish.

Zuckerberg is particularly adamant on the subject, even to the point of undercutting the purported value of his site. He insisted last week fake news “surely had no impact” on the election.

Well. Facebook crows about its ability to convince people to buy products, play games and even to vote. But it lacks any influence on how its users vote? One of those propositions contradicts the other.

We said some weeks ago when Facebook first banned a famous war photo from the site and then backed down, we doubt algorithms could replace the nuanced thinking of human editors.

This latest example further supports that idea.

Yes, users shouldn’t believe everything they see “on the internet.” Yes, those who bought the “text your vote” scam are the epitome of low-information voters. But if Facebook and Google can target clickbait and label satire, they can do more to weed out the fakes as well.

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.

A clue about the election

To the Editor: According to some of the news reports lately, no one can figure out what happened this past election.

Our so-called leaders, newspersons, commentators, late night talk show hosts and even some foreign politicians are stumped.

Let me clue them in.

This election was not about Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump. It was about the past almost eight years. We were promised change. Well, we got it, and in the worst possible way, in my opinion.

National debt has skyrocketed. Race relations have gone downhill. More people are on the government dole, depending on the government to take care of them. The government giveth, the government can taketh away.

The only difference between full-blown socialism and communism is the ability of the populace to protect themselves against the powers that be, left wing or right wing.

VIEWS Rich Miller Party needs to show voters “we want to change things and let people know what the party is doing for the people of this state.”

Asked about the state party’s aversion to social media and other 21st century innovations, Guzzardi said it wouldn’t matter much now anyway.

“We could hire a social media coordinator, but what would they say?”

“It starts with having a message,” Guzzardi insisted, saying he has been talking with several other members about building “a platform that we can go fight on.”

Others in Madigan’s caucus undoubtedly are nervous about January’s vote for House speaker. Everyone who represents a district Rauner won two years ago will be watched closely – and there are a bunch of them, although that number was reduced by five via the election.

There is no doubt something has changed in the House Democratic caucus.

No actual “revolt” is brewing against the House Speaker. It’s just that members are worried about something that haunts all politicians:

Enough stirring the bucket for now.

To the Editor: I feel like I watched the 10th inning of the seventh game of the World Series in sloooooow motion while l was watching the election results. The first pitch of the 10th inning was thrown at 7 p.m. when the polls closed and the underdog still was in it, but everyone was waiting

Self preservation. A vote for Madigan for speaker next January is, for many, absolutely guaranteed to cause huge problems for them back home unless this almost two-year impasse is resolved.

Even the least active legislators go to enough events to know what’s on their constituents’ minds. And thanks to unprecedented multi-million-dollar advertising buys on Chicago, St. Louis and other broadcast television markets, a large swath of the public has been overexposed to the pettiness and ugliness of legislative politics for the first time. And about half of those ads were focused mainly on one guy: Madigan.

The last time anyone voted “present” on a roll call for House speaker was 30 years ago this coming January, when Rep. Dick Mautino decided to stick his neck out. He was dealt with harshly, and Madigan put down a potential revolt a year later when he defeated one of the attempted coup leaders in a primary and defeated yet another plotter in 1992. It’s been mostly smooth sailing ever since.

And it’s not like public vilification is anything new to Madigan. I remember the 1988 campaign in the Kankakee area when appointed Rep. Phil Novak (D-Bradley) ran against Iroquois County Clerk John Kuntz.

Novak was hammered on local radio

and in the mail for his alleged ties to Madigan. But Novak shrugged it off and went on to win. Madigan just wasn’t as well-known back then and Illinois wasn’t in crisis.

But this year is different. The Republicans turned on the biggest anti-Madigan fire hose they could buy to shift as much blame as possible for this horrific two-year stalemate onto the House Speaker. Madigan’s job approval numbers already were very low. Actually, they’ve always been low. But at a time of crisis, people look for a scapegoat, and Madigan was handed to the populace by Rauner on an expensive platinum platter.

Nobody will say they are prepared to do it themselves, but plenty of House Democrats are speculating some of their colleagues could vote “present” when Madigan comes up for re-election in January. That would be the rarest of rare events, and Team Rauner most definitely would do all it could to exploit it to the hilt.

After Madigan lost a net of four seats on Nov. 8, any wavering of support by Madigan’s membership would be proof the man was losing his iron grip.

On election night, Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan started making his usual post-election calls to his Democratic members asking for their support for his own re-election as speaker. But at least a couple said they’d like to sit down with him before providing a firm answer either way.

Reps. Will Guzzardi and Kelly Cassidy, both liberal Chicago Democrats, confirmed they want Madigan to come up with a plan that, as Guzzardi said, involves more than “just saying ‘No’ ” to Gov. Bruce Rauner.

“I’d like to know what his vision of the next two years is,” Cassidy said.

“Doing the same thing over and over again is the definition of insanity, so I want to know what the vision is.”

Cassidy refused to comment further, saying she preferred to share her thoughts with Madigan himself. But Guzzardi wasn’t quite as reticent.

“Right now,” Guzzardi said, “Rauner is the only one with a plan to fix this.” Rauner, of course, endlessly promotes his “Turnaround Agenda” reforms and blames Democrats for blocking him at every turn.

He’s the one positioned as a change agent, Guzzardi said, and that, in turn, makes the Democrats look like obstructionists.

“We don’t have an agenda,” Guzzardi complained. The Democratic

How Kellogg worked with ‘independent experts’

By CANDICE CHOI

The Associated Press NEW YORK – On its website, Kellogg touted a “Breakfast Council” of “independent experts” who helped guide the company’s nutritional efforts.

Nowhere did it say this: The maker of Froot Loops paid the council members and fed them talking points, according to a copy of a contract and emails obtained by The Associated Press.

The company paid the experts an average of $13,000 a year, prohibited them from offering media services for products “competitive or negative to cereal” and required them to engage in “nutrition influencer outreach” on social media or with colleagues.

“I’m still feeling great from my bowl of cereal & milk this morning!

Mini-Wheats are my fave,” a dietitian on the council posted during a Twitter chat with Kellogg. Another council member and dietitian chimed in to say they were her favorite, too, and included a photo of the cereal.

For Kellogg, the council – in existence between 2011 and this year – deftly blurred the lines between cereal promotion and impartial nutrition guidance. The company used the council to teach a continuing education class for dietitians, publish an academic paper on breakfast and try to influence the government’s dietary guidelines.

Kellogg said the council’s activities were clearly sponsored.

Yoni Freedhoff, an obesity expert at the University of Ottawa who writes about industry influence in nutrition, said he didn’t believe it was clear to the public that the council members were compensated, especially since Kellogg described them as “independent.”

“It’s not an automatic leap. I don’t think people think about these conflicts that deeply,” he said.

Dayle Hayes, a dietitian who participated in the Twitter chat in 2014, said in an email that she prides herself on her ethics and transparency and that her disclosure practices have changed as standards have evolved. Based on current standards, she said she would include the word “ad” in tweets referencing Kellogg products. She said she did not share any information without appropriate disclosures.

Kellogg Co. said the experts disclosed their affiliation with the company in public engagements. Still, the company said it could see how its use of “independent” could create confusion. It said later it decided not to continue the council, and the website page is no longer online.

‘Are those regular Fritos?’

Kellogg said on its website that the breakfast council helped guide the company. But it wasn’t always clear who was providing the guidance.

When Kellogg sent the council re-

search it commissioned, Hayes expressed enthusiasm and requested language to share the information.

Hayes and Sylvia Klinger, another dietitian on the council, tweeted the lines Kellogg provided verbatim.

Hayes included the word “advisor” and Klinger included the word “client.”

Kellogg also supplied the experts with a “toolkit” of tweets for a promotional event in New York. When the council members received a critical email from someone they didn’t know criticizing their work with the company, the company suggested a response for that, too.

“I appreciate and share you(r) interest in the health of our children,” the suggestion read. “It’s for this very reason that I work with Kellogg.” The council members decided not to respond.

The work with dietitians wasn’t unusual. Coca-Cola has paid dietitians who wrote columns casually suggesting mini-sodas as a snack.

Disclosures said the author is a “consultant” for food and beverage companies, “including Coca-Cola.”

Jessica Levinson, a dietitian who has appeared in TV news segments for Coke and PepsiCo’s Frito-Lay, told the AP that producers were told if her healthy eating tips were sponsored. Yet the disclosures weren’t always shared with viewers.

In a segment on NBC Baltimore on “dos and don’ts” in 2009, Levinson presented bags of Fritos with dip – as an example of a “do.”

“Are those regular Fritos?” asked the reporter, indicating her surprise.

‘Key messages’

One of the breakfast council’s accomplishments was publishing an academic paper defining a “quality breakfast,” which Kellogg touted as being written by “our independent nutrition experts.”

A Kellogg employee oversaw the editing and provided feedback, including asking for the removal of a line saying a recommendation that added sugar be limited to 25 percent of calories might be “too high.”

Kellogg said the paper was a supplement and that its involvement should have been clear. It noted a disclosure said a draft was written by an agency that represents Kellogg.

The Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics said editorial rules for supplements are the same as for regular articles. The paper underwent peer review, and an editor suggested reducing or eliminating the detailed discussion of cereal, especially since the sponsor was a cereal company.

To amplify the paper, Kellogg planned to reference it in comments submitted for the government’s dietary guidelines, emails obtained by the AP through a public records request show. Kellogg also sent its breakfast council a plan with “Key Messages” to promote the paper.

One message: “A variety of Kellogg’s products and tools make it easier to enjoy a quality breakfast.”

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 2016

NEW YORK – Comedian Dave Chappelle is headed back to TV with his first concert specials in a dozen years – a trio of specials to be released on Netflix simultaneously in 2017.

No exact date was given by Netflix, which said one of the specials is being produced exclusively for the network.

Two additional never-before-seen specials “come directly from Chappelle’s personal comedy vault,” Netflix said.

Chappelle’s comedy career includes movie roles in “The Nutty Professor,” “Con Air” and “Blue Streak.” In 2003, he achieved heightened fame and critical acclaim as mastermind of his Comedy Central sketch series, “Chappelle’s Show,” until his abrupt exit in its third season.

Kanye West appears Aug. 28 at the MTV Video Music Awards at Madison Square Garden in New York.

Kanye West cancels remaining dates on Saint Pablo Tour Kanye West has abruptly pulled the plug on his Saint Pablo Tour a few days after making statements onstage about how he “would have voted for Donald Trump” and after a stormy weekend in which he abruptly canceled a show after four songs.

A representative for the rapper said Monday that the remaining 21 dates of West’s current tour have been canceled. No reason was given. Live Nation said tickets will be “fully refunded at point of purchase.”

The tour, now in California, was to make stops through Dec. 31 in Dallas, Denver, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Detroit, Boston, New York City and Washington, D.C., among others.

The cancellation comes after a complex weekend for the musician, who ended a concert early in Sacramento, California, on Saturday, then canceled a performance Sunday in the Los Angeles area.

Saturday’s truncated show became a hot topic on social platforms as amateur videos circulated of a 10-minute tirade by West about Beyonce, Jay Z, Hillary Clinton, Mark Zuckerberg, the radio and MTV. Over the weekend, West also flooded his Instagram account with nearly 100 fashion photos, many snaps of photos that were out of focus and poorly cropped.

On Friday, during a concert in San Jose, California, West said he didn’t vote but would have cast a ballot for Trump, praising the president-elect’s “method of communication” as “very futuristic.”

The 2016 American Music Awards featured a number of pop stars strumming their guitars, Drake making a rare awards show appearance, an emotional speech from Selena Gomez and political moments about President-elect Donald Trump.

Drake, who has skipped his fair share of awards shows in recent years, was the big winner with four awards and debuted a new commercial for Apple Music.

“For our genre, I just like to keep things excited and keep making music. Shout out to everybody that’s trying to do the same thing,” said Drake, who broke Michael Jackson’s record for most AMA nominations after scoring 13 nominations.

Justin Bieber, who performed from his tour in Zurich, Switzerland, also won four awards.

Gomez, who lost artist of the year to Ariana Grande but won favorite female artist – pop/rock, gave a heartfelt speech onstage that earned a loud applause from the audience at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

“I think it’s safe to say that most of you know a lot of my life whether I liked it or not, and I had to stop, ’cause I had everything, and I was absolutely broken inside. And I kept it all together to where I never let you down. But I kept it too much together where I let myself down,” said 24-year-old Gomez, who recently took time off to treat depression and anxiety.

WASHINGTON – Stephen Colbert will return to host the Kennedy Center Honors for the third year in a row.

The Kennedy Center announced Monday that the host of CBS’ “Late Show” will emcee the 39th annual gala in Washington. It will be held on Dec. 4 and broadcast Dec. 27 on CBS. Recipients of this year’s honors are actor Al Pacino, rock band The Eagles, pianist Martha Argerich, gospel singer Mavis Staples and singer-songwriter James Taylor.

The Kennedy Center Honors go to those who influence American culture through the arts. They are among the nation’s most prestigious awards for performing artists.

The reach of “Rocky” is international, and the film serves as a slice of Americana. It is shorthand for Philadelphia as much as the Liberty Bell or Benjamin Franklin.

“Anytime we are speaking to overseas visitors ... the conversation always turns, at some point, to ‘Rocky,’” said Julie Coker Graham, president of the Philadelphia Convention and Visitors Bureau. “They ask, ‘Have you met Rocky?’ A lot of them think it’s an actual, real-life person.”

Choose a streaming device without overpaying

By ANICK JESDANUN

costs $35 – affordable, although the gadget is clunky without its own remote.

It’s slightly better with Android than iPhones.

The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Your streaming TV options have gotten better and cheaper.

Features that once required a $100 device now can be had for as little as $30. A cheap device is fine for getting TV shows and movies from most popular services onto a big-screen TV – as long as it’s a regular, high-definition set. Of course, it’s possible simply to watch video on a phone or tablet, but it’s not as satisfying as from a living-room couch.

Here’s a holiday buying guide for the TV-streamers in your life.

Streaming built-in

Smart TVs, game consoles and the TiVo digital video recorder all have streaming apps, and if all you watch is Netflix and Hulu, you’ll be fine with those. But apps for individual channels such as The CW and FX won’t work with every device.

The exceptions are TVs running Roku software or that have Google’s Chromecast technology built in; they tend to have wider app selections.

Getting around

Devices vary in how easy it is to access apps and video. While many devices are getting voice features that let you search multiple services at once, you’ll still need to navigate on-screen menus with a remote. The exception is Chromecast, which has no menu or remote at all. Instead, you start video on an iPhone or Android phone and send it to the big screen with a tap of a cast button. With some video services, the phone is freed up for other things, though you’ll need to use the phone as a remote for pausing and rewinding.

Devices running Google’s Android TV come with Chromecast features and pack their menus with video from

Mid-range devices

Xiaomi’s Mi Box is a speedy Android TV device with a nice price tag, $69. It supports higher-resolution video known as 4K, an option that once required more expensive devices. But you need a 4K TV and services that offer 4K video – so far, Netflix and YouTube do so for just some of their offerings. Mi Box also supports HDR picture quality.

Google’s new Chromecast Ultra also has 4K and HDR support for $69.

Google releases app to digitize boxes of old photo prints

By ANICK JESDANUN The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Google wants to make digitizing your many boxes of old photo prints as easy as opening an app.

The PhotoScan app for iPhones and Android phones will use the phone’s camera to capture an old photo in four sections and stitch them together, much like a panorama shot. Google says this approach helps eliminate glare that can mar attempts to digitize a print by simply photographing the whole photo.

The app will make minor adjustments to restore

color in faded photos and to align corners when the photo print is bent.

Julia Winn, a product manager for the new app, said scanning photos with traditional scanners takes time, while third-party digitizing services cost money and require you to part with your photos temporarily, risking loss and damage.

The free app, released last week, will work with photos on a table, a picture frame and an album. It also will digitize slides when projected on a wall.

Winn said the resolution of the digitized photo will be comparable to that from a flatbed scanner.

Other photo features announced Tuesday include:

• The main Google Photos app is getting additional editing controls. There are new filters for those who like automation and more granular controls for those who prefer manual editing.

icons of the apps they contain. The phone supports Android Pay, too.

What’s bad: Its battery is the weakest of the bunch, in part because the phone’s smaller than the others.

At default settings, the phone’s display is so dark I sometimes had to squint to look at it. Photos taken in a dimly lit room didn’t turn out well. The Xperia lacks a fingerprint scanner and isn’t water-resistant, unlike Sony’s top-end models.

Down the road: You can add a MicroSD card for more storage beyond the stingy 16 gigabytes offered.

It won’t work with Verizon or Sprint.

The Associated Press NEW YORK – You easily can save hundreds of dollars on an Android phone – especially if you, like many people, don’t need a top-end camera.

Cheaper Android phones are, in many respects, adequate substitutes for pricier high-end models such as Samsung’s Galaxy S7 and Google’s Pixel.

There are dozens worthy of consideration. I’m recommending three out of the handful I’ve tested: the OnePlus 3, Sony’s Xperia XA and Motorola’s Moto G4. All three are easy to use and have great battery life, enough for four or five movies on Netflix.

The drawbacks? For one, availability. Of the three phones, only the Moto is compatible with all the major U.S. carriers. And then there’s the camera. All smartphones take decent shots in good conditions, but high-end phones typically do better in the dark. I’ll trade hundreds of dollars in savings for a camera that does well most of the time, but shutterbugs might seek perfection.

What’s good: You’re not sacrificing the speed or power of top-end models. The OnePlus also has a fine camera – I could tell, even as a photography dummy. To combat blurry shots, especially in low light, the OnePlus has an anti-shake technology that’s rare for mid-range phones. Even selfies taken at dusk turned out well. The camera’s interface is nice, too, letting you swipe up or down to change from video to photo mode. OnePlus also has a finger-

ize the phone’s color combinations when you order.

The camera was fine, although not as good as that on the OnePlus. For $50 more, you can get a Plus version with a more powerful camera and a fingerprint reader (I tested the regular model).

What’s bad: It is bulkier than the other phones and looks cheaper. Taking a screenshot is difficult, and folders don’t show the apps inside. There’s no Android Pay. Oddly, there’s also no indicator light that comes on when the phone is charging. Though Motorola says the phone will resist spills and light rain, you can’t submerge it in water.

Down the road: The regular G4 and Plus version both start with 16 gigabytes of storage, but you can pay for more up front or add storage later with a MicroSD card. It’s compatible with all major U.S. cellular networks.

print scanner to unlock phones and a wireless chip for making payments in stores using Android Pay. What’s bad: The 5.5-inch screen is great for watching video but makes the phone too big to use comfortably one-handed. Folder icons don’t show you what apps are inside, making navigation difficult if you forget where you put your apps (standard Android). The phone’s not water-resistant.

Down the road: You can’t add storage, but it comes with a fairly generous 64 gigabytes. It’s not compatible with Verizon or Sprint.

Sony Xperia XA ($279)

What’s good: Aesthetics-wise, this light, sleek phone is my favorite. It is easy to hold and use this 5-inch phone with one hand. Folders sport mini-

28 Eye drops offer relief for allergy sufferers Note to readers: This column originally ran in November 2014.

Dear Dr. K: I have allergies, and my eyes

are affected the most. They’re puffy, red and itchy. What can I do?

Dear Reader: Pollens, animal dander, dust mites and mold: The same allergens that cause sneezing and an itchy nose and throat can trigger allergy symptoms that affect your eyes, too. If your eyes are red and itchy, you also might have tearing, mucous discharge and swelling of your conjunctiva (the inside of your eyelid).

This constellation of symptoms is known as allergic conjunctivitis. It can be uncomfortable, but it is not a threat to vision.

To help improve your symptoms, try to avoid whatever triggers your allergies. If you are allergic to cats, avoid them, or at least don’t touch your eyes when near one.

If pollen is your nemesis, keep your windows closed. And keep an air purifier or air conditioner going in pollen season.

A simple but effective remedy is to place a cool, wet washcloth over your eyes.

Also, use artificial tears (available without prescription) frequently. They’ll give you some relief and help wash away allergens.

Try not to rub your eyes. Doing so causes mast cells, which play a key role in allergic reactions, to release inflammation-causing chemicals into the eye. This makes symptoms worse.

If your symptoms appear occasionally, try one of the newer generation of antihistamines you can take by mouth. Antihistamines block the action of histamine, a major cause of itchy eyes. Over-the-counter options include loratadine (Claritin), cetirizine (Zyrtec) and fexofenadine (Allegra).

Others are available by prescription.

Another option is eye drops that contain mast cell stabilizers, which limit release of the inflammation-causing chemicals.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff During an allergy attack, eye drops work faster than pills taken by mouth.

Eye drops that contain antihistamines and decongestants (medicines that cause small blood vessels to narrow) are available over the counter. They can provide quick relief, particularly of the redness in the eye. But don’t use these medications for more than a week or two, as they can cause excessive narrowing of the blood vessels in your eye. And be prepared for a little redness to return after you’ve stopped using them.

If your symptoms persist, try eye drops that combine a mast cell stabilizer and an antihistamine. These drugs are available over the counter and by prescription.

If you use multiple types of eye drops, such as drops containing an antihistamine and artificial tears, don’t put both drops in your eye at the same time. Wait about five minutes between putting the two types of drops in your eye. Otherwise, the second type you put in your eye may wash away the effects of the first type.

If your symptoms are severe and don’t improve with other medications, ask your doctor about prescription eye drops that contain corticosteroids. These medications help control inflammation, but they only should be used under the guidance of an eye specialist (ophthalmologist). Without proper monitoring, corticosteroid eye drops can cause glaucoma, cataracts or other serious complications.

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

must have felt to have learned about the abortion during a “heated discussion.” However, there is a common misconception women who decide to terminate a pregnancy do so lightly.

They don’t. If you don’t know your daughter’s reason for having hers, it might benefit both of you to talk calmly about it. You don’t have to approve of her choice, but you should hear what she has to say.

Because you feel broken, this is something you should discuss with your religious adviser and take your cue from him or her. To cut off relations with your daughter – and by extension your grandson – would benefit no one.

me. Your point is an important one, and that I omitted it was an oversight. I hope parents of infants will take your wise counsel to heart.

Dear Abby: My daughter is 29, and we recently had a respectful, although heated, discussion about politics, agendas and the candidates. It turned out we disagree on major issues, and we both can give chapter and verse about why we believe the way we do.

Something came to light, though. She’s not the person I thought she was. She informed me she had an abortion. My feelings on this issue aren’t a judgment call. This is a belief system for me, something ingrained in me. If she were a stranger, I absolutely would not be around her. Knowing what I do now, I am crushed.

She’s my daughter, and we always have had our differences. But I feel so strongly about what she’s doing and has done I no longer want to be in the same room with her.

She has a son I adore with all my heart, and I provide child care for him. I feel broken right now and really could use guidance. – Broken

While, as you replied to “Sleepy in California” (Sept. 17), some parents do “cosleep” with their children for the first few months, what you were referring to actually is “bed sharing.” Bed sharing was shown in studies several years ago to be the greatest risk factor for sleep-related deaths in infants younger than 4 months of age.

The American Academy of Pediatrics and the March of Dimes both have recommended (for years) against bed sharing in these young infants. Instead, they recommend young infants sleep in cribs near their parents. They of course should be on their backs and should not be sleeping with blankets or toys.

These deaths, mostly from suffocation or overheating, are sad and mostly preventable.

The acceptance of bed sharing due to cultural influences is difficult to overcome. Please help by taking the time to educate your readers on the dangers of bed sharing with infants. – C.

CRYSTAL LAKE – Gavin Markgraff scored from long range, midrange, drove to the basket for 3-point plays and snagged a game-high 11 rebounds for McHenry.

But one thing the 6-foot-4 junior guard could not do was suspend time.

The Warriors, trailing by two points with 1.7 seconds remaining, inbounded the ball at midcourt to forward Patrick Breisch, who whipped a pass to Markgraff in front of the Warriors’ bench.

Markgraff quickly cut loose with a 3-pointer that swished through the net, but McHenry needed a few tenths of a second more.

The McHenry bench erupted, but officials waved off the shot, leaving Hononegah with a 54-52 victory Monday in both teams’ season opener in the Crystal Lake Central Thanksgiving Boys Basketball Tournament in a game played at Prairie Ridge.

“We executed well, but unfortunately time wasn’t on our side,” said Markgraff, who led all players with 23 points.

“We had some bumps when some guys went too fast, including me. We just needed to slow down at some points. I feel like our second half was just great.”

McHenry (0-1) fell behind by nine points in the third quarter before fighting back to take the lead on Markgraff’s steal and basket, 52-50, with 30 seconds remaining. It was only the second time in the game the Warriors had led, the other coming at 3-2 on Markgraff’s three-point play.

Hononegah (1-0) came back with a Josh Donaldson 3-pointer with 10 seconds remaining for a 53-52 lead. The Warriors missed on a shot but fouled Jackson Doyle on the rebound. Doyle missed his first free throw, then made the second.

McHenry coach Tim Paddock still liked what he saw on the final play.

“I was hoping I wouldn’t see anybody waving it off,” Paddock said. “I was just excited the way they executed at a time when we needed to. We’ve had that play in for a while, but you don’t practice a lot of that kind of stuff that early in the year. They executed it.”

Forward Colton Klein sparked the

McHenry’s Colton Klein (right) goes to the basket in the fourth quarter against Hononegah on Monday in the Crystal Lake Central Thanksgiving Tournament at Prairie Ridge in Crystal Lake. Hononegah won, 54-52.

Warriors with seven of his 12 points in the fourth quarter. Klein’s three-point play with 1:03 remaining tied the score at 50.

“Once the second half came around, we dug deep in our bellies and we just pulled it out,” Klein said. “We played with everything we had. They had more bodies than us. We just kept fighting punch for punch.”

Donaldson scored 11, Doyle added nine and three other Indians tossed in eight. Donaldson hurt McHenry early, but foul trouble hurt the All-Northern Illinois Conference-10 player from a year ago.

“We said execution was going to win the game, and it did tonight,” Hononegah coach Mike Miller said. “We ran a special for Josh, and he hit a huge shot, but Spencer Murdoch set a great screen and Jackson Doyle made a great pass. All of those things matter.

Josh showed why he’s an all-conference player.”

OUTSIDE THE BOX SCORE q UNSUNG HERO Andrew Rupcich McHenry, sr., C

Rupcich grabbed eight rebounds, second-most on the team, including a key offensive rebound with 1:43 remaining that helped the Warriors get a basket and cut Hononegah’s lead to one.

Points scored by McHenry forward Colton Klein in the second half. The 6-foot-3 senior finished with 12 points.

Fenwick takes legal action after OT loss

Johnsburg’s Blake Lemcke returns a kickoff against Manteno during a Class 4A second-round playoff game Nov. 4 in Manteno. Johnsburg won, 49-35. Lemcke has scored four touchdowns this season, three on punt returns and one on a kickoff return.

JOHNSBURG FOOTBALL

A knack for the big play

Lemcke’s TD-saving tackle vs. Phillips latest highlight

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com Game-saving tackles don’t often come in the second quarter.

In Friday’s Class 4A state semifinal game, Phillips running back Kamari Mosby found his way behind the Johnsburg defense. It’s never a good sign when the defenders have to turn and chase.

But 5-foot-9, 170-pound Blake Lemcke was the right guy for the job.

Lemcke tracked down Mosby on the 67-yard run and saved a Phillips touchdown. A few plays later, he and the Skyhawks’ defense stopped Phillips from scoring any points on the drive.

“That just came down to not giving up,” Lemcke said. “I realized I could catch the kid. Usually a lot of kids slow down when they realize the kid’s got a couple yards on them. Something was different about that play. I didn’t let myself slow down.”

Linebacker and quarterback Riley Buchanan was in awe of the play.

“I don’t know how the heck he got him,” Buchanan said. “That was awesome pursuit. The kid had probably 10

or 12 yards on him, and he still ran up and caught him. That was huge.”

“He won us that football game,” coach Dan DeBoeuf said after the game.

Lemcke said his 40-yard dash time is somewhere around a 4.6 or a 4.7. Buchanan thinks he’s one of the fastest players on the team.

“Him and Alex Peete would be a great race,” Buchanan said.

Peete, the Skyhawks’ record-setting running back, has been clocked at a 4.5 40-yard dash. Linebacker and backup running back Jack Kegel probably would have something to say about the matter, too.

The play against Phillips was far from Lemcke’s first big play of the season. The senior safety has scored four touchdowns this season, three on punt returns and one on a kickoff return.

On a punt return for a touchdown in the quarterfinal win over Genoa-Kingston, Lemcke caught the ball perfectly in stride and blew past the G-K coverage, spinning through two would-be tacklers along the way.

“All season, I had been letting them bounce in front of me,” Lemcke said.

“After every game, I was getting tired of

coaches and parents joking around with me, saying I shouldn’t let it bounce like that. I took that advice and ran with it, caught the ball on the fly and realized I already had all their gunners beat and just had to keep my legs moving.”

He said special teams coach Sean Stochl likes to mix up the Skyhawks’ looks on special teams each week.

“He likes to adjust to [the opponent’s] style of special teams and not just try to make ours work every week,” Lemcke said.

Lemcke said he likely won’t be playing in college anywhere. He plans to study engineering, although he hasn’t decided on a school yet.

He and the Skyhawks’ secondary will be tested in Friday’s state title game against Rochester’s pass-heavy attack. Having a player such as Lemcke – both his speed and his smarts – should help the Skyhawks in their quest for a state title.

“Blake is the mastermind of the coverages back there,” Buchanan said.

“He’s huge with communicating to everyone. ... He’s a great player to have on your team.

“Glad we’ve got him on our team.”

Fenwick High School has taken legal action against the IHSA after an officiating error in Saturday’s Class 7A football semifinal game against Plainfield North led to the Tigers being awarded an untimed down that forced the contest into overtime and ended with North taking the win.

Oak Park-based Fenwick filed a complaint and restraining order Monday in Cook County court against the IHSA, demanding the school be awarded the victory. A court appearance is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. Wednesday, a mere three days before the state championship game.

During the semifinal game, Fenwick’s Jacob Keller threw a fourthdown pass as the final seconds of the fourth quarter expired. Officials ruled it was grounding, a final play was awarded to North, Connor Peplow made a field goal to tie the score, and the Tigers defeated the Friars in overtime, 18-17.

IHSA Executive Director Craig Anderson admitted in a statement released Saturday that an error was made, but cited an IHSA bylaw that “the decision of game officials shall be final” and that protests against those decisions will not be considered by the IHSA board.

Fenwick appealed to the board, but the board determined Monday morning it would not hear the appeal, according to a statement from Fenwick. “... in an effort to protect the rights and rightfully earned opportunities of its students, Fenwick High School has filed a lawsuit … seeking declaratory, injunctive and other relief against IHSA,” the statement reads.

Fenwick’s complaint refers to the situation as an “obvious and fully admitted breach of contract” and a “travesty.”

It argues the IHSA’s constitution, mission statement and bylaws are a legally binding contract between the IHSA and its members.

“To allow this unjust result to stand would fly in the face of everything the IHSA stands for in its administration of high school athletics – fairness, reliability, accountability and integrity,” the complaint states.

Whichever team is determined the winner of last weekend’s semifinal game will take on East St. Louis for the Class 7A state title at 4 p.m. Saturday at the University of Illinois in Champaign.

4 BOYS BASKETBALL: SYCAMORE 47, DUNDEE-CROWN 34

Sycamore shoots past D-C

By JESSE SEVERSON

jseverson@shawmedia.com SYCAMORE – Jack Mizgalski and James Marcinkowski looked like they were in midseason form in the season opener.

The Sycamore boys basketball team got a lift from the two seniors in a 47-34 victory over Dundee-Crown on the first day of the Leland G. Strombom Holiday Tournament on Monday night.

Mizgalski scored all of his teamhigh 14 points in the first half – including four 3-pointers – and Marcinkowski flirted with a double-double, scoring 12 points and grabbing eight rebounds in the win.

“Jack shot well early, and [D-C] did a nice job in the second half. We had a much more difficult time getting shots off, but other guys stepped up,” Sycamore coach Ryan Picolotti said. “I thought James Marcinkowski was all over the place. He got every

rebound. He did a great job giving us a lot more scoring opportunities.”

For the Chargers, guard Jack Orndahl made his first three 3-pointers in the first quarter and finished with a team-high 14 points.

Nobody else on D-C scored more than four points.

“We made some errors, but they’re correctable errors, and if we correct them, I think we’ll be OK,” D-C coach Lance Huber said.

Sycamore also got 11 points from junior Ethan Heinrich.

The teams combined to make seven of their first eight 3-point attempts on the night. Mizgalski made three in the first quarter, and Heinrich started off the game making a 3.

“My sophomore and my junior year, I had a slow start to the season, so I wanted to make sure my senior season wasn’t like that,” Mizgalski said. “I don’t know, I was just feeling good today.”

D-C cut the Sycamore lead to 16-13

on a jumper by Bradley Stec early in the second quarter, but the Spartans pushed the advantage up on back-toback 3-pointers – one by Mizgalski and the other by sophomore Darnell Coleman – and a layup by senior post Connor Weckerly.

The Chargers never got it within less than nine points the rest of the way.

“They came out at their place and sort of stuck it to us,” Huber said.

“They made those two 3s right in a row, and we had some turnovers at some bad times – not that there’s a good time to have one – and they made some opportunistic plays.”

For the Spartans, the game was played without the benefit of having their entire roster. A handful of players who also were on the Sycamore football team sat out the game. The Spartans advanced to the semifinals of the Class 5A football playoffs, losing, 21-16, against Vernon Hills on Saturday.

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com For the second week in a row, a Bears starter was suspended four games for violating the league’s policy on performance-enhancing substances. This week, it’s inside linebacker Jerrell Freeman.

Freeman will be eligible to return to practice Dec. 19 and play in the final two games of the season. Receiver Alshon Jeffery was handed a four-game suspension for a PEDs violation Nov. 14.

“I would like to apologize Jerrell Freeman to my coaches, teammates, the Bears organization and Bears fans for the embarrassment I’ve caused myself and them.

I made a mistake with my prescription medication for which I take full responsibility,” Freeman said in a statement. “As players in the NFL we’re educated on the parameters regarding substances which go into our bodies, and I’ve prided myself on doing the right thing throughout my career. I look forward to getting back on the playing field in four weeks and finishing the season on a positive note.”

The Bears’ leading tackler with 91 this season, Freeman signed a three-year contract in March. His base salary for 2016 is $1 million, so the suspension will cost him about $235,000.

“Obviously, much like Alshon, I’m very disappointed,” coach John Fox said. “These guys understand all the parameters of the drug testing involved in our league. But much like Alshon, we move on, and we’ll move on without Jerrell.”

Freeman is tied for the team lead with six tackles for loss. He has started all 11 games this season. Rookie fourth-round draft pick Nick Kwiatkoski likely will replace Freeman in the starting lineup alongside Danny Trevathan.

“It’s unfortunate, but at the end of the day, we know Alshon and we know Jerrell,” cornerback Tracy Porter said. “They didn’t do it intentionally. It’s not like they’re trying to take anything that’s going to harm themselves. They’re just trying to – I don’t know what these guys are taking. But I know in knowing these guys, knowing what type of guys they are, knowing the character guys they are, it’s definitely something that will help their bodies and not try to give them an unfair advantage.”

Reports: Shoulder injury could end Cutler’s season

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com For those wondering how things could get worse for the Bears, Jay Cutler suffered a shoulder injury in Sunday’s loss to the Giants, according to multiple reports.

The Chicago Tribune reported the injury could cost Cutler the rest of his season. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport tweeted that the team will know whether Jay Cutler Cutler’s season is over Tuesday, but “either way, it’s not good and he’ll miss games.”

Cutler was sacked four times in Sunday’s loss, and went to the turf hard on a roughing-the-passer penalty on Giants DE Olivier Vernon on the second play of the game.

In the 22-16 loss, Cutler never left the game. He threw a touchdown pass to Zach Miller in the first quarter and an intercep-

tion on the final drive to seal the Bears’ fate, as their record dropped to 2-8 on the season.

Cutler already missed five games this season with a thumb injury. He is completing 59.1 percent of his passes – his worst accuracy since 2012 – and has four touchdowns and five interceptions, good for a rating of 78.1.

Many have wondered whether this is Cutler’s final season in Chicago. The longest-tenured Bear has been with the organization since a 2009 trade with the Broncos. He has no more guaranteed money left on the seven-year, $126 million contract he signed after the 2013 season. The Bears would be hit with $2 million of dead cap money if they cut him after 2016.

Matt Barkley would start at quarterback Sunday against Tennessee if Cutler can’t go.

The fourth-year player out of USC completed 6 of 15 passes with two interceptions Oct. 20 when he filled in for an injured Brian Hoyer in Green Bay. Barkley never has started an NFL game, and the Packers game was his first meaningful NFL action since 2013.

6 OILERS 5, BLACKHAWKS 0

Goose egg in Edmonton Winning streak ends at 2 with shutout defeat The ASSOCIATED PRESS EDMONTON, Alberta – Leon Draisaitl scored twice, and Cam Talbot made 31 saves for his third shutout of the season, helping the Edmonton Oilers beat the Western Conference-leading Blackhawks, 5-0, Monday night.

Oscar Klefbom, Andrej Sekera and Anton Slepyshev also scored for the Oilers.

Corey Crawford made 22 saves in the loss as the Hawks had a two-game winning streak snapped.

Teenage captain Connor McDavid had two assists for Edmonton. The 19-year-old set up a goal 2:39 in by skating the length of the ice before centering the puck for Klefbom, who blasted a shot past Crawford.

McDavid also assisted late in the first when Draisaitl tipped in Klefbom’s shot from the point on a power play for a 2-0 lead.

Talbot kept the Hawks from getting on the board four minutes into the second when he stopped Duncan Keith on a point-blank power-play shot.

Sekera scored on a long wrist shot with just 7.6 seconds left in the second shortly after a power play expired to make it 3-0.

Edmonton took a 4-0 lead seven minutes into the third period when Slepyshev’s deceptive shot from a bad angle handcuffed Crawford.

Draisaitl scored his second of the game late in the third on the power play to put the game away.

CAMPBELL BACK ON RIGHT SIDE

After spending one game back on the left side to accommodate Michal Rozsival’s rare appearance in the lineup, Hawks defenseman Brian Campbell was back on the right side with Duncan Keith on Monday night – a spot he’s occupied for about a month.

After spending the past five seasons on the left side with the Florida Panthers, Campbell said he’s perfectly comfortable on the right again.

“I’ve played the right earlier a lot in my career,” he said. “It’s just I hadn’t played it in a few years. For me, it’s a lot of remembering stuff, and I feel really, really comfortable there now. I feel like I can improve on my skating. If

JOHN SCOTT RULE

The NHL All-Star Game again will be replaced by a 3-on-3 tournament featuring teams from all four divisions, on Jan. 29 in Los Angeles. Longtime enforcer John Scott’s Internet-driven All-Star selection and unlikely MVP award last year was one of the highlights of the NHL season. But the

league took steps to ensure it doesn’t happen again, instituting what surely will become known as the John Scott rule. If a player is assigned to the AHL between Nov. 1 and Jan. 26 (as Scott was last season), he will not be eligible for All-Star fan voting.

ROSTER REPORT

Rozsival, Dennis Rasmussen and Jordin Tootoo were scratches, as Gustav Forsling and Andrew Desjardins got back in the lineup. The Hawks’ six rookies have been in and out of the lineup all season but are starting to force coach Joel Quenneville’s hand, which could mean players such as Rasmussen, Tootoo and Desjardins will be fighting for playing time more often. “[The rookies] are getting better, hopefully every night,” Quenneville said. “Whether productive or not, they’re doing the right things, their lines are effective. But they have to be better away from the puck. Most of their strengths are offensively, so getting acclimated and doing the right things defensively is what we’re looking for.”

UP NEXT Hawks: Play the fifth in a sea-

son-high seven-game road trip Wednesday night in San Jose.

Oilers: Start a two-game trip Wednesday night at Colorado.

MEXICO CITY – Derek Carr woke up a struggling Oakland offense by throwing two touchdown passes in the fourth quarter as the Raiders capped a successful trip to Mexico with a 27-20 victory over the Houston Texans on Monday night.

Oakland had been held to 120 yards through three quarters with the running game going nowhere and Carr finding few open receivers downfield. But that changed in the fourth quarter to give the Raiders (8-2) their fourth straight win for the first time since 2002.

Canadian rookie Hughes wins 4-player RSM Classic playoff

ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. – Mackenzie Hughes figured he was down to his last chance to stay alive in a four-man playoff Monday morning in the RSM Classic.

The Canadian rookie with pluck and a pure putting stroke poured in an 18-foot par putt from off the 17th green at Sea Island, and that last chance turned into his first PGA Tour victory when the other three players all missed from 10 feet or closer.

Hughes calmed his nerves and came up clutch in the 42-degree chill, becoming the first PGA Tour rookie in 20 years to

Klinsmann fired as U.S. men’s soccer coach

NEW YORK – In a sign of just how much American soccer has grown up, U.S. national team coach Jurgen Klinsmann was fired after a pair of losses in the final round World Cup qualifying.

Six days after a 4-0 loss at Costa Rica dropped the Americans to 0-2, Klinsmann was terminated after almost 51/2 years during a meeting Monday at a Los Angeles hotel with U.S. Soccer Federation President Sunil Gulati and Secretary General Dan Flynn.

Ex-Rocket Francis charged with threatening police officer

HOUSTON – Former NBA All-Star Steve Francis has been charged with felony retaliation after prosecutors said he threatened to assault a Houston-area deputy during a traffic stop.

Court records show the 39-year-old Francis also faces a misdemeanor driving while intoxicated charge stemming from the Saturday incident. Online jail records show he was released on $5,500 bond. He’s scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday.

8 BULLS ANALYSIS

Gar/Pax got it right with Butler decision

By JOE COWLEY

jcowley@suntimes.com LOS ANGELES – The front office finally got it right.

Look, the missteps of Gar/Pax have been many the past three seasons.

General manager Gar Forman and VP of basketball operations John Paxson have been the faces of a Bulls organization gone wrong, while having little accountability from their bosses.

But it’s time for some praise.

Last season was a crossroads. The locker room was a collection of cliques gone wrong. They chose the right clique – unpopular in many areas around the city – and his name was Jimmy Butler.

That meant allowing Joakim Noah to pack up his metal lunch pail and hard hat, riding off into free agency.

That meant taking the hometown kid in Derrick Rose and all his dysfunction, making it a New York problem.

That meant resisting the urge – by choice or not – to trade Butler on draft day and blowing up the product altogether.

Now there’s at least hope for a Bulls organization that was a punchline far too often last year. Are they ready to dethrone the King in LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers? Heck no. But they finally have a face of the franchise that actually cares about the product and moving it in the right direction.

The longer Rose has been gone, the more head-shaking stories come out about him. According to multiple team sources, his game prep was so inadequate that coach Fred Hoiberg had no choice but to pull him into the office before first tip and again try to reinforce the game plan. Even then, Rose either forgot or chose to ignore what was asked of him, especially on the defensive end.

That’s why Butler and key addition Dwyane Wade have been stressing game film and preparation to their teammates this season, making it a top priority.

“I saw everybody working on their body, everybody watching the film, and I was like, ‘This is the way it’s supposed to be,’” Butler said Sunday when talking about the preparation that went into beating the Lakers.

Butler definitely did his part in that game. With Wade getting a rest day, all Butler did was play 40 minutes, score 40 points, grab seven rebounds and hand out six assists.

The Bulls’ Jimmy Butler leaps away from the Lakers’ D’Angelo Russell (center) and Nick Young to make a pass during the first half Sunday in Los Angeles.

As of Monday, Butler was 12th in the league in scoring (25.1 points a game), sixth in free-throw attempts (9.5 a game), and still guarding the opposing team’s best player on most nights.

That’s an MVP candidate, folks.

And although Butler was born and raised in Tomball, Texas, and definitely has gone Hollywood, he’s more Chicago than Rose ever was. He’s blue-collar, his style of play is physical, and he’s never done working on his weaknesses.

Last summer’s project: Getting stronger and improving his 3-point shot? Check and check.

“I don’t want to say I enjoy contact, but I’m not soft by any means,’’ Butler said of his physical style of play. “Let’s just get that out of the way. It’s part of the game. I always talk about other sports I can play, but I think this one is just the right amount of contact for me.”

So who does he pattern that physical style after?

“Antonio Brown.”

When reminded that Brown is a Steelers receiver in an entirely different sport, Butler said, “Yeah, but he’s physical, so I want to be like Antonio.

Thank you.”

A strange answer, but as Wade put it, “We’re all in Jimmy Land.”

“He’s playing with a tremendous amount of confidence,” Hoiberg said of Butler. “He feels like every time he steps on the floor that he’s the best player out there.

“More often than not he’s right.”
