Sports blackouts maintain sanity Call me a bandwagon jumper, a fair-weather fan or worse, but I didn’t watch one snap of Sunday’s Bears game, and I’m a better person for it.

I do love sports. I’m not one of those dream husbands who’s above couch surfing or any other random acts of laziness on weekends, but I don’t want to spend my time passively watching things that aggravate me. For the past few years, the Chicago Bears have been high on the list of things that are very likely to disappoint.

Being a Chicago fan across the board, my attention shifts just like many others who didn’t suffer through the Blackhawks’ dark ages. I rarely watched White Sox baseball over the past few summers.

Our family activities tend to wind down until the holidays this time of year, but from Labor Day on, our plans have nothing to do with the Bears’ schedule. Things we’ve done during Bears games include hiking in the Smoky Mountains, fishing, fall youth baseball, and this Sunday, I just fiddled around the house with newspaper and housework.

It’s nothing against the players. They also are well-compensated for their labor and unfazed by my lack of interest. Yet my indifference makes me a slightly more agreeable hu-

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Kevin Lyons man being when their labor results in another humiliating loss. What’s my compensation for that if I did watch? Three hours of wasted time.

Part of me admires the die-hards, and how the end of a 108-year championship drought must have felt to those fans who suffered inning after inning through decades of mostly futility. But when it’s all said and done, those fans all buy the same T-shirt as the guy who thinks Ben Zobrist is a backup catcher.

Do you have a saturation point with your teams when you start to go numb, or do you suffer through every snap, each pitch and every shift of ice time?

Thankfully, the Bears have plenty of fans to stick with them for another miserable season.

They won’t miss a few of us sitting on the sidelines.

NO ON LIQUOR STORE

DICTIONARY.COM’S WORD OF THE YEAR IS ‘XENOPHOBIA’

Marengo Council members on Tuesday nixed the idea of a downtown liquor store. Aldermen are happy about the possibility of a Taco Bell coming to city. Bhaveshbhai Kalani wanted to buy the property at 113 S. State St. to open a liquor store. He also planned to rent out half the space for office use, renovate the building and turn the top floor into apartments. See story, page A7.

FINDING DORY IN A PARADE

You could find Dory from Pixar’s “Finding Dory” as a bus in Crystal Lake’s Festival of Lights Parade on Friday. The Transportation Joint Agreement has decorated a school bus each of the past 11 years.

School bus driver Stacey Balmes started the tradition in 2006.

NEW YORK – You might have thought about it, heard it. A lot. You might have even felt it: Dictionary.com’s word of the year is “xenophobia.”

While it’s difficult to get at exactly why people look up words in dictionaries, online or on paper, it’s clear that in contentious 2016, fear of “otherness” bruised the collective consciousness around the globe.

The Brexit vote, police violence against people of color, Syria’s refugee crisis, transsexual rights and the U.S. presidential race were among prominent developments that drove debate – and spikes in lookups of the word, said Jane Solomon, one of the dictionary site’s lexicographers.

The site defines xenophobia as “fear or hatred of foreigners, people from different cultures, or strangers.”

Potts started the Potts and Pans Steelband, and after playing shows for about three years, he and co-founders Christina Guerrero and Anthony Houston formed Culture, Arts and Music.

The group is piloting an after-school steel band for students at Creekside

“Expanding into these cultures that just don’t fit into the typical school curriculum has been really exciting,” said Houston, of Crystal Lake.

Lawmakers team up for bipartisan fight against lame-duck tax hikes

By KEVIN P. CRAVER

kcraver@shawmedia.com Two local lawmakers – one Democrat and one Republican – will unveil their effort Tuesday to fight any attempt at raising taxes during the lameduck session of the General Assembly.

State Reps. David McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills, and Jack Franks, D-Marengo, will hold a joint news conference at noon in Springfield to discuss bills they’ve filed to stave off David any tax-hike attempt in McSweeney the last days of session in January. With a six-month stopgap budget set to expire at year’s end, the two lawmakers and others are worried that an attempt to pass a “grand compromise” budget that would include a tax increase could come in January, when the odds of passage will be greater.

McSweeney’s House Resolution 1494 seeks to put lawmakers on record as

opposing a tax increase, while Franks, through House Joint Resolution Constitutional Amendment 62, is trying to put a constitutional amendment to Illinois voters that would keep the threshold to approve tax increases at a three-fifths supermajority until the new General Assembly is seated.

Under the Illinois Constitution, the threshold required to pass legislation that takes effect immediately increases from a simple majority to a three-fifths supermajority – or 71 House Jack Franks members and 36 senators – with the end of the spring session May 31. But it decreases back to a simple majority – or 60 House members and 30 senators – on Jan. 1. That gives lawmakers after each November election a window to pass legislation until the new General Assembly is sworn in on the second Wednesday in January, which this time falls on Jan. 11.

Lawmakers in the past have used

the post-election lame-duck session as a way to enact controversial legislation while avoiding voter wrath. Re-elected lawmakers consider themselves “safe,” while lawmakers who are leaving office and have nothing political left to lose can be persuaded to vote for things they otherwise may have rejected.

The unpopular 67 percent income tax increase that expired for the most part last year was passed in the last hours of the lame-duck session after the 2010 election. The increase passed with the help of 12 outgoing lawmakers, six of whom promptly landed government jobs – two of them had campaigned against a tax increase before losing their re-election bids. Lawmakers also waited until that lame-duck session to get the votes necessary to end capital punishment in Illinois.

The House and Senate are scheduled to meet for their last three days of veto session Tuesday through Thursday.

But legislative leaders can call lawmakers back into session up until the new General Assembly is sworn in.

CRYSTAL LAKE McHenry to host holiday County offers low-cost rabies lights recycling vaccinations, microchip clinics

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com McHENRY – The city of McHenry is hosting a holiday light recycling program during the next several months.

Partnering with Elgin Recycling, the initiative will begin Thursday and end Feb. 28, according to a news release.

Those interested in recycling holiday lights can do so from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday at the public works facility, 1415 Industrial Drive, or from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the McHenry Municipal Center, 333 S. Green St. Lights that are able to be recycled include mini-lights, C7 lights, C9 lights, rope lights, LED lights and extension cords, of all colors and lengths. Garland, live greens, wreaths or other nonrecyclables are not accepted, according to a news release.

For questions, call the McHenry Public Works Department at 815-3632186.

NORTHWEST HERALD CRYSTAL LAKE – Pets with a microchip and a current rabies vaccination and registration have a better chance of being reunited with their families than if they do not, according to a news release from the McHenry County Department of Health.

The McHenry County Animal Control and Adoption Center will host three low-cost rabies vaccination and microchip clinics for McHenry County residents.

Events will be from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m.

Dec. 14, from 1 to 4 p.m. Dec. 15 and from 3 to 5 p.m. Jan. 25. All events will be at Animal Control’s Crystal Lake facility, 100 N. Virginia St. Pets must be leashed or in carriers

and must not be in heat. Appointments must be made by calling 815-459-6222.

Rabies vaccinations are $10 for one year or $25 for three years. Registration tags are required by law, and registration fees are separate and required at the time of rabies vaccinations.

Rabies is almost always fatal, according to the news release, and rabies vaccinations provide pets with the best protection against the disease.

Microchips cost $15 and are a more permanent form of pet identification.

Microchips are about the size of a grain of rice and typically are implanted just beneath the surface of the skin between the shoulder blades.

Adoptions for $80 also will be available. To view available pets, visit www. petfinder.com.

Taco Bell coming to city

By BRITTANY KEEPERMAN

bkeeperman@shawmedia.com MARENGO – Marengo Council members nixed the idea of a downtown liquor store, but aldermen said they were excited about the possibility of a Taco Bell in town.

Bhaveshbhai Kalani wanted to buy the property at 113 S. State St. in downtown Marengo. He proposed a new liquor store and also planned to rent out half the space for office use. He also wanted to renovate the building and turn the top floor into apartments.

Alderman discussed the proposal at length but eventually said no.

The building, formerly home to Vidiot’s Video and Gaming, has sat empty for a few years. Council members said that the possibility of increased revenue was appealing, but many were concerned about adding yet another place to buy alcohol to the downtown area.

Council has previously sought the ability to regulate bars tighter on the strip.

“As much as I’d like to see the building utilized, I’m not sure a liquor store is something that is a good fit for our downtown,” Ward 4 Alderman Dennis Hammortree said.

Others echoed his sentiments.

“There are pros and cons to this,”

Ward 1 Alderman Michael Miller said.

“I’d love to see something go in there and it sounds like you have a plan. But I don’t think we need another liquor store.”

Alderman Todd Hall said that he wasn’t sure turning away an interested investor was the best move to make, despite hesitation over the liquor store.

“I don’t think we need another bar or place that sells alcohol,” he said.

“I’m in favor of it only because we get something done on the building. It’s an eyesore.”

A new business is coming to town, however. Taco Bell has submitted building plans to the city and wants to start construction as soon as possible, likely in the spring of 2017, officials said.

Taco Bell plans to open across the street from Joe’s Tavern on Grant Highway. The city’s contracted engineering company, HR Green, will review the building documents, Mayor Donald Lockhart said.

“I am happy about it,” he said. “This is something that has been wanted by the people for a long time.”

In addition to offering steel drum classes for adults and children, Culture, Arts and Music holds paint and sip classes and is bringing in samba classes for adults and children, Potts said.

“We’re just continuing to get these different cultures that are just so rich and vibrant and just so different than things that we’re used to in our sheltered community,” Potts said.

Music in Trinidad and Tobago is different from in the U.S., Potts said, because the whole community will ral-

ly behind its region’s steel pan band.

He said he hopes to bring the sense of community associated with music in the Caribbean and other regions to Woodstock.

Considering the significant Hispanic population around Woodstock, Potts said there isn’t anywhere for them to go to celebrate their culture. He said he hopes Culture, Arts and Music can add salsa dancing classes, too.

“Woodstock is an arts community, and we felt that Woodstock as a city was ready for something like this,” Potts said.

Six students played at Tuesday’s rehearsal, including some who had been in the band for weeks and some who were attending for the first time.

Bud Schmauss of Crystal Lake comes from a musical background as a folk singer, but he had never played steel drums before. He was placed on the cello steel drums during his first class.

“This is the closest I have ever been to them,” Schmauss said.

Vicki Cummings of McHenry played the bass steel drums, which is made up of six steel barrels that Potts made himself.

Cummings, a music teacher at Riverwood Elementary School in McHenry, had never played steel drums before Culture, Arts and Music introduced her to them.

The top of the barrels had notes written around them so Cummings knew exactly where to hit.

“It actually ended up just being really fun,” Cummings said. “And when we first started I was not really sure, [but] they were really good about showing me exactly how to hit and how hard to hit.”

From a teacher’s perspective, bringing in world music can help children learn about teamwork and community rather than looking at their Chromebooks and technology, Cummings said.

“I think it’s great to have this in the community because it just brings everybody together,” Cummings said.

LAKE IN THE HILLS – A woman was sent to the hospital Monday night after a crash in Lake in the Hills, a police official said.

Lake in the Hills Police Sgt. Mark Mogan said that according to preliminary investigation, a tow truck turned left in front of a vehicle on eastbound Algonquin Road near Pyott Road, causing the vehicles to crash.

The crash happened about 8:30 p.m.

The driver of the vehicle was sent to Centegra Hospital – Huntley with injuries that are not considered to be life threatening, Mogan said.

The driver of the tow truck was not injured, Mogan said. There were no passengers in either vehicle.

The crash temporarily closed eastbound lanes on Algonquin Road, Mogan said. No citations have been issued yet, and the investigation is ongoing, he said.

Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District also responded.

School bus plays Dory in Crystal Lake’s Festival of Lights Parade NORTHWEST HERALD CRYSTAL LAKE – For the past 11 years, the Transportation Joint Agreement has entered a decorated school bus into Crystal Lake’s Festival of Lights Parade.

This year, the Crystal Lake-based bus company was awarded first place in the “best use of lights” category for its bus depicting Dory from the hit Pixar movie “Finding Dory.”

The Transportation Joint Agreement is a bus service that goes between Crystal Lake Elementary School District 47 and Community High School District 155. The bus decorating first began in 2006, when school bus driver Stacey Balmes decorated it with leftover household decorations.

“My daughter asked me years ago why there wasn’t a bus in the parade, and that’s where it all started,” Balmes said in a news release. “It continues to be a tradition and grows at the bus garage every year because of the teamwork and holiday spirit that comes from building our float.

“The excitement and reactions from

Tony-winner and TV star Fritz Weaver dies at 90

By MARK KENNEDY The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Tony Award-winning character actor Fritz Weaver, who played Sherlock Holmes and Shakespearian kings on Broadway while also creating memorable roles on TV and film from “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine” to “Marathon Man,” has died. He was 90.

Weaver died at his New York City home on Saturday night, said his daughter, Lydia Weaver, and son-inlaw, Bruce Ostler. No cause was given.

A tall man – he stood 6-foot-3 – who was blessed with a deep, resonant voice, Weaver found parts in every medium, often cast as the aristocratic villain.

Weaver won a Tony in 1970 playing a private-school disciplinarian in the play “Child’s Play” and earned an Emmy Award nomination in 1978 as the patriarch of a Jewish family in the TV miniseries “Holocaust.”

His many other TV credits include guest parts on “Murder, She Wrote,” “The Twilight Zone,” “Magnum, P.I.” “Matlock,” “Gunsmoke,” “Falcon Crest” and “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.”

His film work included playing a college professor in “Marathon Man” opposite Dustin Hoffman, a FBI agent in “Black Sunday,” the 2015 Adam Sandler film “The Cobbler” and the 2016 film “The Congressman,” star-

ring Treat Williams. In 2013, he played Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black in HBO’s “Muhammad Ali’s Greatest Fight.”

But his first love was the stage.

He earned a Tony nomination for his Broadway debut in “The Chalk Garden” and he went on to play King Henry IV, Peer Gynt, a singing Holmes in the musical “Baker Street” and a town official in a 1991 Broadway revival of “The Crucible,” among others.

“The stage is where I began,” Weaver said in 1986. “That’s where I have the most accumulated experience. Movies and television have always been a means of earning a living. And I’m growing more and more familiar with the vocabularies of both those things.”

Born in Pittsburgh, he attended the University of Chicago intending to major in physics when he was cast in the part of Archbishop Thomas Becket in T.S. Eliot’s tragedy “Murder in the Cathedral.”

He later told the Christian Science Monitor that playing that role changed his life: “When you play the great roles, you get spoiled and think you’ll have a whole career playing nothing but great roles, and of course you can’t.”

Weaver’s first marriage to Sylvia Short ended in divorce. He married the actress Rochelle Oliver in 1997.

She survives him, as do his daughter, Lydia, and his son, Anthony.

WWII bomber pilot speaks about eluding Nazis

By THERESA CHURCHILL The Associated Press

DECATUR – After making two dozen bombing runs to Austria, Germany and Italy, 21-year-old Bruce Leonard felt pretty comfortable in the cockpit of a B-17 Flying Fortress.

Then, after the bombardier dropped the payload Feb. 21, 1944, on a synthetic oil refinery in Vienna, anti-aircraft fire knocked out Leonard’s two port engines.

The pilot’s first task was to push the remaining engines to the breaking point to get over the Southern Alps. The next was to land at an emergency air strip in Yugoslavia, something he’d never done before.

“This was just a field cleared of trees and only about 1,500 feet long. We couldn’t land with wheels up, it was too rough,” Leonard said. “The plane would have flipped over.”

Accomplishing this with no injuries to the 10-man crew, he and the others began a 72-hour odyssey of eluding Nazi patrols to reach the coast and rescue.

Up to now, Leonard, 93, preferred to fly under the radar about his World War II experiences, but in the aftermath of receiving a 2016 James Millikin Award, he was persuaded to also accept some of the spotlight for Veterans Day. It seems fitting, even though Leonard

Report: Illinois authorities take millions in asset seizures

CHICAGO – A new study shows that Illinois law enforcement confiscated more than $319 million in cash and property from individuals over the past 10 years, using a system that doesn’t require convictions to validate the forfeitures.

The American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois and the Illinois Policy Institute recently released a report in which researchers explain financial incentives for police departments and local prosecutors to seize personal property from the public, the Chicago Tribune reported.

The study found that law enforcement agencies in Illinois receive about $30 million in forfeited property each year.

“Asset forfeiture in Illinois has become policing for profit,” said Ben Ruddell,

“You grew up. I probably wouldn’t have been so serious-minded otherwise,” he said during an interview earlier this week at his villa at Primrose Retirement Community.

Born in Ohio, Leonard moved to Decatur with his family in 1937 when his stepfather came to manage soybean oil sales for Spencer Kellogg Co. after

Fearing a draft, he enlisted in the Army Air Corps with the expectation of pursuing a degree at Ohio Wesleyan University in Delaware, Ohio.

The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor later that year changed all that.

By 1943, military training had taught him the limitations a lack of education could put on life, and he was sent to Foggia, Italy, for the three dozen bombing missions he flew starting Oct. 7 and finishing April 21, 1944.

Davis urges investment in poor areas after grandson’s death

CHICAGO – U.S. Rep. Danny Davis of Chicago is pushing for an anti-poverty plan that he says would reduce gun violence in poor communities such as the one where his 15-year-old grandson was fatally shot last week.

On Monday, the Democratic congressman spoke at Chicago City Hall, surrounded by African-American lawmakers and activists. He said poverty can drive violent crime and that if more money was invested in poor communities it would reduce the gun violence that has plagued some of the most violent neighborhoods in Chicago.

Chicago has seen a surge in gun violence this year and the majority of the nearly 700 homicides – including

The first job for Leonard and his crew, once on the ground near Banja Luka, Yugoslavia, was to destroy the top-secret equipment that allowed the Americans to bomb a target as small as 500 square feet from 36,000 feet.

Almost immediately they were approached by several men who managed to communicate that help was coming.

Soon 15 to 20 uniformed Chetnik Freedom Fighters arrived and took everything from them and their plane except sufficient clothing to keep warm.

Two large trucks came to take them about 160 miles to the Adriatic Sea, covering part of the distance the first night and making it the rest of the way the second night.

Leonard said German patrols were in the area, so they were obliged to lay low during the day.

Officials announce $75M for Chicago train extension

CHICAGO – Chicago Transit Authority officials have approved a capital plan that includes $75 million in funding for an extension of a major train line.

It’s the next step in the $2.3 billion expansion of the Red Line. City officials want to expand the line that includes stops in Chinatown and the home of the White Sox from 95th Street to 130th Street, including four new rail stations.

The $75 million investment means the city can move forward with initial engineering and analysis needed to apply for $1 billion in federal funds. City officials say the money will be funded by CTA bonds.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced the plans Sunday.

The city is seeking public input on plans until Wednesday. Construction on the 5.3-mile extension isn’t expected to begin until 2022.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Authorities: No use of force to oust protesters

BISMARCK, N.D. – Authorities said no action will be taken to enforce North Dakota Gov. Jack Dalrymple’s emergency evacuation order for protesters of the Dakota Access oil pipeline.

Dalrymple signed the order Monday for protesters who are camping on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers land. Dalrymple cited “harsh winter conditions,” and his order said the unpermitted camp sites are not zoned for suitable housing.

Emergency Services spokeswoman Cecily Fong told The Associated Press that authorities will not be using law enforcement or the National Guard to enforce the governor’s order.

Earlier, the corps ordered the protesters to leave federal law but said it has no plans to forcibly remove anyone.

The sheriff also told reporters that authorities have received numerous credible tips from people who believe they saw the two, including one tip that came from the area that search dogs had chased them to.

Chavez, 33, and Campbell, 26, are facing possible life sentences if convicted of burglary, extortion, false imprisonment and other charges they were being held on.

Terrorism is suspected in attack at Ohio State

By ANDREW WELSH–HUGGINS and JULIE CARR SMYTH The Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio – A Somali-born Ohio State University student plowed his car into a group of pedestrians on campus and then got out and began stabbing people with a butcher knife Monday before he was shot to death by a police officer. Police said they were investigating whether it was a terrorist attack.

Eleven people were hurt, one critically.

The attacker was identified as Abdul Razak Ali Artan. He was born in Somalia and was a legal permanent U.S. resident, according to a U.S. official who wasn’t authorized to discuss the case and spoke on the condition of anonymity. The FBI joined the investigation.

The details emerged after a morning of conflicting reports and confusion, created in part by a series of tweets from the university warning there was an “active shooter” on campus and students should “Run Hide Fight.” The warning was prompted by what turned out to be police gunfire.

Police vehicles and ambulances converged on the 60,000-student campus, and authorities blocked off roads. Students barricaded themselves inside offices and classrooms, piling chairs and desks in front of doors, before getting the all-clear an hour and a half later.

Ohio State University police Chief Craig Stone said the assailant deliberately drove his small Honda over a curb outside an engineering classroom building and then began knifing people.

A campus officer nearby because of a gas leak arrived on the scene and shot the driver in less than a minute, Stone said.

Angshuman Kapil, a graduate student, was outside Watts Hall when the car barreled onto the sidewalk.

“It just hit everybody who was in front,” he said. “After that everybody was shouting, ‘Run! Run! Run!’ ” Student Martin Schneider said he heard the car’s engine revving.

“I thought it was an accident initially until I saw the guy come out with a knife,” Schneider said, adding that the man didn’t say anything when he got out.

Most of the injured were hurt by the car, and at least two were stabbed. One had a fractured skull.

Columbus police Chief Kim Jacobs, asked whether authorities were considering the possibility it was a terrorist act, said: “I think we have to consider that it is.”

Republican Vice President-elect Mike Pence called the episode “a tragic attack” and said “our prayers are with them all.”

U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff of California, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, said the bloodshed “bears all of the hallmarks of a terror attack carried out by someone who may have been self-radicalized.”

“Here in the United States, our most immediate threat still comes from lone attackers that are not only capable of unleashing great harm but are also extremely difficult, and in some cases, virtually impossible to identify or interdict,” he said.

Ohio State’s student newspaper, The Lantern, ran an interview in August with a student named Abdul Razak Artan, who identified himself as a Muslim and a third-year logistics management student who’d transferred from Columbus State in the fall.

Disputes hit transition as Trump drama rolls on

By JULIE PACE and CATHERINE LUCEY The Associated Press

NEW YORK – The drama, disputes and falsehoods that permeated Donald Trump’s presidential campaign are now roiling his transition to the White House, forcing aides to defend his baseless assertions of illegal voting and sending internal fights spilling into public.

On Monday, a recount effort, led by Green Party candidate Jill Stein and joined by Hillary Clinton’s campaign also marched on in three states, based partly on the Stein campaign’s unsubstantiated assertion that cyberhacking could have interfered with electronic voting machines.

Wisconsin officials approved plans to begin a recount as early as Thursday.

Stein also asked for a recount in Pennsylvania and was expected to do the same in Michigan, where officials certified Trump’s victory Monday.

Trump has angrily denounced the recounts and now claims without evidence that he, not Clinton, would have won the popular vote if it hadn’t been for “millions of people who voted illegally.”

On Twitter, he singled out Virginia, California and New Hampshire. In another series of tweets Monday, he lashed out at a CNN reporter who had called Trump’s

There has been no indication of widespread election tampering or voter fraud in those states or any others, and Trump aides struggled Monday to back up their boss’ claim.

Spokesman Jason Miller said illegal voting was “an issue of concern.” But the only evidence he raised was a 2014 news report and a study on voting ir-

regularities conducted before the 2016 election.

Trump met Monday with candidates for top Cabinet posts, including retired Gen. David Petraeus, a new contender for secretary of state. Trump is to meet Tuesday with Tennessee Sen. Bob Corker, who is also being considered more seriously for the diplomatic post, and Mitt Romney, who has become a symbol of the internal divisions agitating the transition team.

Petraeus said he spent about an hour with Trump, and he praised the president-elect for showing a “great grasp of a variety of the challenges that are out there.”

“Very good conversation and we’ll see where it goes from here,” he said.

A former CIA chief, Petraeus pleaded guilty last year to a misdemeanor charge of mishandling classified information relating to documents he had provided to his biographer, with whom he was having an affair.

Trump is expected Tuesday to name Georgia Rep. Tom Price to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, said a person familiar with the decision, who insisted on anonymity because the person was not authorized to discuss the nomination publicly ahead of the announcement.

Vice President-elect Mike Pence, who is heading the transition effort, teased “a number of very important announcements tomorrow” as he exited Trump Tower on Monday night.

Pence is said to be among those backing Romney for State. Romney was fiercely critical of Trump throughout the campaign but is interested in the Cabinet position, and they discussed it during a lengthy meeting earlier this month.

Other top Trump allies, notably campaign manager Kellyanne Conway, have launched a highly unusual public campaign to warn the president-elect that nominating Romney would be seen as a betrayal by his supporters. Conway’s comments stirred speculation that she is seeking to either force Trump’s hand or give him cover for ultimately passing over Romney.

Three people close to the transition team said Trump had been aware that Conway planned to voice her opinion, both on Twitter and in TV interviews.

They disputed reports that Trump was furious at her and suggested his decision to consider additional candidates instead highlighted her influence.

Conway served as Trump’s third campaign manager and largely succeeded in navigating the minefield of rivalries that ensnared other officials.

You may think sunscreen is a product you only need during summer; actually, you should use it all year long. In summer, sunscreen helps prevent sunburn when used correctly and reapplied regularly.

When the temperature turns colder, even though the sun isn’t as direct, spending time in the afternoon sun without sunscreen can lead to sunburn and chapped skin, especially if you’re on or near water.

Dr. Jeffrey Altman, a Board Certified Dermatologist with Mercy Woodstock Medical Center, recommends using a waterproof sunscreen with SPF 30. “I have patients who travel for a winter getaway, and don’t remember to use sunscreen every day,” said Dr. Altman. “Those who use it may not reapply often enough, and come home with a painful sunburn or rash. Certain medications can make you more sensitive to the sun; check with your doctor before traveling to make sure your medications won’t interfere with your exposure to the sun.”

Dr. Altman has treated severe rashes on patients who took a winter trip to a sunny locale. “One thing people don’t realize is what happens when lime juice comes in contact with the skin when you’re in the hot sun,” he explained. “There are compounds in the citric acid that can cause a painful rash. One patient had squeezed lime juice on her hair to try to lighten it in the sun, and she got lime juice on her hands, arms, and face. She developed a horrible rash after going out in the sun. It’s important to wash lime juice off your skin with soap and water, and use sunscreen, before going in the sun.”

Sunscreen is necessary even if you’re not traveling somewhere warm. “Sunscreen helps combat against sunburn and windburn during a ski vacation,” added Dr. Altman. “Wearing sunscreen should be a daily habit; it will help avoid long-term sun damage and skin cancer.” For more information, please contact:

Trump’s threat to end Cuba detente may draw opposition

By RICHARD LARDNER The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – President-elect Donald Trump’s threat Monday to “terminate” the U.S. detente with Cuba could trigger opposition from some Republican lawmakers and corporate leaders who favor continued engagement with Havana.

Since 2014, when President Barack Obama began to normalize relations with the island, the United States has taken numerous steps to increase commercial travel, commerce and the flow of information to Cuba. On Monday, the first regularly scheduled commercial flight in more than 50 years from the U.S. to Havana landed while passengers aboard the American Airlines jet cheered.

After Fidel Castro’s death Friday at age 90, top aides to Trump signaled that the Cuban government must move toward enacting greater freedoms for its people and giving Americans more in return if it wants to keep the warmer U.S. ties that Obama initiated. Castro’s younger brother, 85-year-old Raul Castro, took control in 2006, and later negotiated with Obama to restore diplomatic relations.

Trump’s aides said nothing on Cuba

has been decided. But Trump tweeted Monday, “If Cuba is unwilling to make a better deal for the Cuban people, the Cuban/American people and the U.S. as a whole, I will terminate deal.”

Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., a frequent critic of Trump during the presidential campaign, cautioned in a statement against returning to a “get tough” policy that isolates Havana and restricts travel and business activities. Such an approach, Flake wrote over the weekend, will hurt the Cuban people and make the U.S. government “a convenient scapegoat for failed socialist policies.”

Flake, who accompanied Obama during a visit to Cuba in March, said “allowing more frequent and consequential ties between Cubans and Americans is more likely to accelerate the desired change in Cuba.”

White House spokesman Josh Earnest suggested pressure from both U.S. corporate interests and supporters of the detente would keep Trump from dramatically changing course.

Earnest cited the new, daily commercial flights, new licenses for U.S. hotel operators and agricultural investment as examples of the sort of corporate investment that could not be undone without dealing an economic blow to both U.S. businesses and Cubans.

CHARLESTON, S.C. – The white man accused of fatally shooting nine black parishioners at a church was allowed Monday to act as his own attorney, opening the door to courtroom spectacles at his death penalty trial, including Dylann Roof questioning survivors of the attack and relatives of the dead.

Roof’s decision to represent himself comes months after he offered to plead guilty in exchange for the promise of life in prison. But fed- Dylann Roof eral prosecutors have refused to take the death penalty off the table in the slayings at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston. Until now, Roof has been represented by one of the nation’s most respected capital defenders.

He joins a long line of high-profile defendants who acted as their own attorneys, often with poor results. Serial killer Ted Bundy, Beltway sniper John Allen Muhammed and Army Major Nidal Hasan, who killed 13 people at the Fort Hood military base in Texas, ended up with death sentences.

After firing their lawyers, Long Island Rail Road shooter Colin Ferguson was sentenced to 200 years in prison, and 9/11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui was sent away for life.

Defendants who act as their own lawyers generally want to bring attention to their causes and publicize their actions. That almost always runs

counter to the advice of lawyers, who urge them not to incriminate themselves.

“They think they have a message and that’s unfortunately what leads to these crimes in the first place,” said New York attorney Tiffany Frigenti, author of an article called “Flying Solo Without a License: The Right of Pro Se Defendants to Crash and Burn” for her law school journal.

Pro se representation also can lead to uncomfortable courtroom encounters between defendants and their victims or those victims’ families if they are questioned by the very person who is accused of shattering their lives.

“It can seem beneficial. Nobody believes in your cause and case more than you,” Frigenti said. “But it only works that way in very rare cases – usually appeals.”

With Roof acting in his own defense, there is plentiful opportunity for explosive or awkward courtroom moments.

Just hours after his arrest, some of the victims’ relatives attended Roof’s initial court appearance and said they forgave him and would pray for him. If he continues as his own lawyer, Roof could end up questioning those same family members in court.

In approving Roof’s request to act as his own lawyer, U.S. District Judge Richard Gergel also appointed his defense team to stay on as standby counsel, available for advice and assistance throughout the trial. That team includes celebrated death penalty attorney David Bruck, who slid down one seat and let Roof take the lead chair after the judge’s order Monday.

Help workers earn a living

If all had gone according to the Obama administration’s plans, 4.2 million middle-income workers would have gotten an early Christmas gift. Under a Labor Department regulation issued in May, they were scheduled to become eligible for overtime pay for hours worked beyond 40 per week, starting Dec. 1. Over the next decade, the total pay boost would have amounted to $12 billion. Walmart already has increased salaries for assistant managers by up to $3,500 a year in anticipation of the new rule.

But it almost certainly will not go into effect next month, due to a Nov. 22 ruling by Judge Amos Mazzant of a federal district court in Texas. The Federal Labor Standards Act, the ultimate source of authority for the national time-and-a-half standard, exempts “executive, administrative and professional employees” who earn a salary.

The definition of such personnel has been a source of contention since the law passed in 1938, although Congress intended both actual job duties and level of pay to be considered. The Obama Labor Department would have expanded overtime coverage by granting eligibility to people making up to $47,476 a year, more than double the current threshhold. This went far beyond Congress’ intent, Judge Mazzant reasoned, by creating “a de facto salary-only test.”

Judge Mazzant’s opinion could be interpreted to mean no salary criteria could be consistent with the statute – an extreme position, given the existing standard was adopted under the Republican George W. Bush administration, although the judge in a footnote insisted his argument applied only to the Obama rule. Although Republicans have been gunning for the Obama administration rule, not all are oblivious to the legitimate concerns it sought to address. Earlier this year, five GOP senators, led by Lamar Alexander (Tennessee), proposed phasing in the Labor Department’s higher salary threshhold over four years with a possible opt-out for nonprofits and state governments.

Our concern is lawmakers probably won’t go far enough. The overtime rule tries to set a floor below which market forces cannot drive pay – to correct for the generally stronger bargaining position of employers. Given this advantage is an essentially permanent fact of capitalist life, basic labor standards should be stable over the long term, so they aren’t constantly being renegotiated by politicians, relitigated by judges or re-lobbied by interest groups. Any overtime rule Congress imposes should include mandatory periodic adjustments to account for new conditions, and specify criteria, including inflation and changes in the nature of work, thus keeping future surprises, for both workers and employers, to a minimum.

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

In trade wars, everyone loses The presidential campaign is over, and hopefully the flirtation with trade protectionism has ended as well. The new Trump administration will not be able to deliver on its promise of a reinvigorated economy if it also sticks to its pledge to curtail trade.

That was the message Ford Motor Co. CEO Mark Fields delivered at the Los Angeles Auto Show last week.

Ford Motor was a favorite whipping boy of Donald Trump on the campaign trail. As a candidate, Trump blistered the automaker for moving car production to Mexico. Specifically, he targeted Ford for shifting assembly of the Ford Focus and C-Max hybrid models to that country.

But as Fields said then, the reality of labor contracts with the United Auto Workers union and federal emissions and fuel economy rules make profitably producing small cars in this country nearly impossible.

Fields pointed out the Wayne plant whose production is moving south of the border soon will be transitioned to building the new Ford Ranger and Bronco. Both are expected to be red-hot models

that could add more jobs to the facility.

What particularly is worrisome to Fields, and should be to everyone else, is Trump’s campaign pledge to add a 35 percent tariff on cars and trucks built in Mexico and imported to the United States.

That would seem to be in direct violation of the North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the rules of the World Trade Organization. And it also would be terrible economic policy.

“A tariff like that would be imposed on the entire auto sector, and that could have a huge impact on the U.S. economy,” Fields said.

It surely would ignite a trade war, with Mexico slapping tariffs on auto parts imported from United States manufacturers.

Automotive is the largest manufacturing export sector in the U.S., amounting to $54 billion in 2014, according to the Department of Commerce.

Mexico is the third largest export market in terms of value for light vehicles assembled in the United States.

In other words, trade is not a one-way street. American work-

ers are benefiting from free trade with Mexico, just as Mexican workers are.

Ford’s hands are not entirely clean on the issue of free trade.

The Dearborn-based automaker opposes the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which would bring together the United States and 11 Pacific Rim countries in a trade consortium.

Fields complains the TPP does not do enough to curtail currency manipulation by some Asian countries. In that view, he is in sync with the president-elect.

Trump also has suggested a 45 percent tariff on goods imported from China, which rapidly is becoming America’s most important trading partner. That, too, would have disastrous impact on U.S. workers and economic growth. And it would drive up prices for a wide range of consumer goods.

America always loses when it engages in trade wars. Trump and his team should focus on growing the economy through smarter tax and regulatory policies, rather than throwing up barriers to trade.

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.

The TOIPAC has endorsed candidates for the election or re-election to the General Assembly for the 2016 November election. “These candidates have demonstrated their support for township government and, therefore, deserve the support of Illinois’ more than 11,000 township officials.” The list of endorsed Senate candidates follows: Antonio Munoz, Kimerly Lightford, Patricia Van Pelt, Heather Steans, Ira Silverstein, John Mulro, Martin Sandolval, Kwame Raoul, Emil Jones, Jacqueline Collins, Donne Trotter, Michael Hastings, Iris Martinez, Senate President Thomas Cullerton, Dan McConchie, Laura Murphy, Steven Stadelman, Dave Syverson, Chuck Weaver, Sue Rezin, Toi Hutchinson, Christine Radogno, Pat McGuire, Bill Brady, Dave Koehler, Jil Tracy, Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant, Sam McCann, Jason

VIEWS Austin Berg Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel thought he knew what was best for city visitors and homeowners when he signed a 58-page ordinance severely limiting home-sharing in June.

The hotel industry shelled out thousands of dollars to city officials to secure their support for the measure.

The ordinance slaps a new tax on homeowners who home-share, forces a new limit on the number of units per building where hosts can rent through home-sharing services and sets a new mandate dictating hosts keep records on guests.

Those are just the parts that are understandable. Many aspects of the ordinance are so vague or dense no average homeowner could grasp the meaning without a lawyer. Even then, a lawyer could only guess.

The new regulations pose a serious problem for Chicagoans such as Alonso Zaragoza. The 37-year-old Windy City librarian bought his first

Barickman, Dale Righter, William Haine, and Gary Forby.

Forty out of a possible 48 candidates received a TOIPAC endorsement, according to the October township magazine “Perspective.”

TOIPAC offers financial assistance to endorsed candidates. “For those of you who have not contributed to TOIPAC, please do so now. Your contributions and support ensure township-friendly legislators in the General Assembly.”

TOIPAC also endorses candidates for the election or re-election of House candidates. For the November 2016 election, TOIPAC endorsed 99 out of a possible 118 candidates, which includes Speaker Michael Madigan.

piece of property in April, a three-flat on Chicago’s southwest side. Zaragoza wants to rent out the first floor apartment on Airbnb.

Why? To help pay for a spike in his property-tax bill.

Emanuel’s record-breaking property tax hike is costing Zaragoza an additional $250 a month. But since Zaragoza doesn’t live in the building he owns, he won’t be able to rent out the room under the new ordinance.

“If [the city] doesn’t give us the legal option to do things the right way, people are going to try to find other ways to survive,” Zaragoza said.

He stressed the value of bringing tourists to the whole city, not just its commercial core, as well as the flexibility and affordability of home-sharing services.

“There are a lot of hotels, but they are not affordable,” he said. “And they’re all downtown. When you’re traveling, it’s nice to be able to see the city as it is. Downtown is not the city. It’s just downtown.”

Zaragoza is one of a few homeowners fighting the city for the right to rent. The Liberty Justice Center, or LJC, and the Goldwater Institute are helping Zaragoza and others sue the

city to strike down the ordinance.

The LJC is the litigation partner of the Illinois Policy Institute. Goldwater is an Arizona-based nonprofit that focuses on protecting constitutional rights.

The home-sharing crackdown in Chicago might not seem like a problem for the rest of the state. But history indicates Chicago is a testing ground for statewide stupidity when it comes to innovative new services.

A bill pushed by the Chicago taxi lobby nearly killed ride-sharing apps such as Uber and Lyft statewide in 2014.

Illinois lawmakers should ensure local bureaucrats quit meddling with basic property rights. They can take a page from Arizona. State politicians there passed a law in May that stops local governments from banning short-term rentals.

Just another reason Illinoisans should look south for the winter.

As I learned in Springfield with my grandfather, home is where the heart is. Even if it’s not your own.

Oh, and as far as her vote not counting in Illinois, Clinton won by about 800,000 votes. We don’t know how many of these were actually alive or citizens. Most of these came from Cook County and only 10 other counties.

A holiday in the hospital can deaden one’s soul.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a patient or a visitor. It doesn’t matter how kind and caring the nurses are.

The fluorescent lights, the dry air, the hushed conversations and the specter of suffering are oppressive.

That’s how it felt to be with my grandfather in a Springfield hospital for a weekend earlier this year. As he drifted to sleep, I realized I probably should find a place to do the same.

The thought of staying in a similarly sterile hotel made me nauseous.

So I pulled out my phone.

The Airbnb app helped me find a cheap room in a house nearby. I was greeted by a woman who told me of her own struggles with sick family members. She reassured me that things would be OK and then made me some tea.

The next morning, I woke up ready to be a good grandson.

Home-sharing services such as Airbnb can be a great way for consumers to find boarding on short notice and for homeowners to make extra money. But like so much else in Illinois, government is getting in the way.

Cyber Monday changes as shoppers are more connected

By MAE ANDERSON The Associated Press

NEW YORK – The Monday after Thanksgiving is still a time when millions of Americans pause to check out online deals and check off items from their gift list – but a one-day Cyber Monday frenzy appears to be going the way of the dial-up modem.

Shoppers who have high-speed connections at home and on their phones are pouncing on deals that stores are spreading out over several days, leaving the so-called Cyber Monday online shopping bonanza in danger of losing its title as the top online sales day.

“Because Cyber Monday is no longer about the connection, it’s just another sales day that I can plan for, like a Labor Day sale or Fourth of July sale,” Gartner analyst Gene Alvarez said. “I know it’s coming, does it fit into my schedule, and will I do my holiday shopping that day, Black Friday or wait to see what comes up later?”

So instead of doorbuster markdowns on a select few products, retailers are shifting to a stream of discounts and alerts during the entire week via email and social media. Cartwheel, Target’s digital app, started offering holiday deals including 50 percent off one toy per day on Nov. 1. Amazon started offering 35 days of Black Friday deals on Nov. 16. Walmart kicked off its Cyber Monday deals on Friday for the first time as it aimed to grab customers ahead of its competitors.

“It’s really this weeklong flow of deals,” said Shawn DuBravac, chief economist at the Consumer Technolo-

Lea Bishop from Carmel, Indiana, picked up tickets to the Texas Tenors at her local performing arts center because they had a rare buy-two-get-twofree deal. “It’s those once-a-year deals that I’m looking for today,” she said.

Otherwise, she noticed retailers have been spreading out deals.

“It seems like they should rename Black Friday to Black Friday Week and rename Cyber Monday to Cyber Monday weekend,” she said.

Matthew Cannata of New Britain, Connecticut, said he and his wife meticulously map out their shopping weekend. They hit the stores Thursday

night and Friday morning and started browsing online Saturday. They saw more discounts early this year and use services such as buying items online and picking them up in the store, Cannata said.

“We are casting a wide net on any and all types of gifts,” he said.

On Monday, he bought an Amazon Tap smart speaker for $40 off at $90 on Amazon.com and Bluetooth stereo headphones for $30, $100 off the original price.

The Monday after Thanksgiving has been the busiest day of the year for online shopping since 2010, and referred to the day when people returned after the

holiday weekend to offices where they had high-speed internet connections.

Cyber Monday still packs the biggest punch in terms of a single online shopping day – for now. Shoppers spent $540 million between midnight and 10 a.m. Eastern time on Monday, affirming that sales are expected to total $3.36 billion, up 9.4 percent from a year ago, according to an early tally by Adobe Digital Insights, which tracks online retail transactions.

But other days are catching up. Adobe’s forecast puts Cyber Monday neckand-neck with Black Friday, when consumers spent $3.34 billion, a 21.6 percent jump from last year.

“Because of technology, the shopping process has been deconstructed, and the consumer constructs their own flow,” Alvarez said.

Joseph Jaconi, whose company TechArmor sells smartphone accessories through Amazon, other outlets and his e-commerce site, said Black Friday was his biggest sales day of the year and he expected Cyber Monday to outpace that, will sales about double or triple that of a normal day. Amazon kicking off its deals on Nov. 16 helped give the whole month a sales lift.

“Cyber Monday has kind of become Cyber Month,” he said.

Research firm comScore predicted that online spending on Cyber Monday will jump to $3.5 billion from $3.12 billion last year, and will release its tally for the day on Wednesday. The firm’s preliminary holiday shopping forecast, which includes November and December, is for online sales to rise as much as 19 percent to $81 billion.

Virtual reality experiences that don’t cost too much THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Virtual reality, what’s up with that?

If you are curious about this highly buzzed high-tech form of entertainment but don’t feel like plunking down $1,000 or more on sophisticated hardware, just visit one of a slew of amusement-parktype rides popping up around the world.

These experiences let you shoot aliens while riding a real-life roller coaster , cook a meal with a Japanese heartthrob or cozy up to players and cheerleaders at a baseball game.

One day, home VR systems likely will be common enough to make VR destinations unnecessary, just as video-game arcades are now rare. For now, though, these public attractions offer your best chance at giving you a taste of VR.

Rolling with VR

At Six Flags theme parks in the U.S., the price of regular admission – roughly $50 – gives you access to a roller coaster redone with virtual reality.

At Magic Mountain near Los Angeles, that means strapping on a Samsung Gear VR headset to battle virtual alien invaders while in real life you’re hurtling around a 40-year-old track of twisted steel. You don’t steer or aim really, but you can look around the world as your ship blasts aliens in foreign spaceships.

It’s a mind-blowing experience that combines a fictional futuristic setting with actual sensations you can get only from having your body tossed around.

Pro tip: Go around twice, once with the headset on and once without, and decide which scares you more.

A $55 ticket gives museum goers entry to the 15-minute VR experience, too (normal admission is about $30). Strap on a “proton pack” – a cleverly hidden VR computer – like Ghostbusters wear in the eponymous movies. Then grab a particle thrower, wear a VR headset and start blasting.

“It was good to see the players close,” said Choi Eun-young, 40, clad in a Wiz uniform and black wizard hat. “But baseball games are the best when you come in person.”

It’s worth a try, though, if you want to experience South Korean baseball’s festive culture and see the live K-pop dance up-close. Baseball in Korea is the equivalent of a live outdoor concert; cheerleaders perform to K-pop songs on stage, and the rest of the stadium becomes a giant picnic with family and friends.

There’s no charge beyond the regular admission to the game, which starts at 10,000 won (about $8.50). But the experience is by invitation only and is meant for local, Korean-speaking fans. KT Corp., which owns the team, selects four or five families based on their messages about why they want a seat there.

Though the baseball season is over, KT says VR likely will return next year.

Not if you’re afraid of heights ...

You can display your courage in Tokyo by rescuing a mewling cat perched on a wooden plank that balances from the edge of a skyscraper.

Walking out on the plank includes one heart-stopping moment where the wood appears to bend slightly beneath your feet with the virtual sky stretching in all directions. Some participants were so freaked out they got on their hands and knees – for real – to keep going.

A fuzzy object that feels like a dead

dog gets placed in your hands if you make it to the end. That’s the extent of the illusion. If you’re not convinced, you may feel like dropping the thing into the virtual abyss below.

The cat rescue is one of eight VR experiences created by game-maker Bandai Namco for HTC’s Vive headset. Another entails shooting flying robotic spaceships with a manga-like female character as your co-pilot. Each experience in VR Zone: Project I Can cost 700 yen (about $6.30) to 1,000 yen ($9). This one’s over, but expect more like it to come.

Taking a dive

At London’s Natural History Museum, visitors can travel beneath the waves and explore the Great Barrier Reef. The museum’s reef dive VR experience sits headset wearers next to British nature broadcaster Sir David Attenborough in a state-of-the-art submersible as it slowly descends to the ocean floor off the coast of Australia.

“We see this as a real opportunity to show specimens in a new way, and we don’t see it as replacing the amazing immersive experience you have when you come,” said Celena Bretton, the museum’s digital media strategy manager.

The 15-minute David Attenborough’s Great Barrier Reef Dive experience costs 6.50 British pounds ($8). The museum admission is free.

NEW YORK – Can the venerable laptop keyboard get more touchy-feely – and in a good way?

We’re about to find out. Higher-end models of Apple’s MacBook Pro now come with a narrow touch screen above the regular keyboard for quick access to common settings and tasks, while Lenovo’s Yoga Book laptop loses the physical keyboard entirely.

The traditional keyboard has never struck me as needing much improvement, although people who’ve grown up on touch screens might well feel differently. These touch innovations, in fact, mostly may be aimed at luring such users to laptops.

So how do the new touch features improve typing and computing?

Many Windows laptops and tablets with physical keyboard accessories long have had touch screens. You still type primarily on a traditional keyboard, but you can poke screen icons and menus directly with your finger instead of navigating with a mouse or trackpad.

This can be useful for basic tasks such as opening apps, moving the

Touch keys

Largely for these reasons, Apple has shunned touch screens on its notebooks. But its high-end MacBooks are getting a separate, narrow strip that replaces the top row of function keys you’ll find on most keyboards. This Touch Bar offers the same functions, but instead of hitting F11 or F12 to change volume, for instance, you tap the speaker icon to bring up a volume slider.

You can fix up to four icons in place; the initial defaults are brightness, volume, mute and the Siri voice assistant.

The rest of the strip changes based on context.

When you’re using the Safari browser, for instance, you typically get thumbnails of individual tabs for easy switching between websites. But that changes to play and pause if you’re watching Netflix, while your name and address pop up as choices when filling

teacher, spiritual healer and author.

Schultz works through Maximum Living Consultants, a bereavement aftercare service employed by Adolf for many years, to arrange and guide the service.

The holiday feast is a hallmark of family gatherings this time of year. But for some, there will be an empty chair at the table.

Helping to fill that empty space is the goal of annual Memorial Candelighting Services, scheduled at Adolf Funeral Home in Willowbrook on Dec. 3 and in Berwyn on Dec. 10.

“We believe in not only providing dignified funeral and memorial services, but to continue care beyond formal services,” said John Adolf, director and owner.

The free holiday service, which has been held for more than 20 years, “provides families an opportunity to share their memories and feelings with others, to know they are not alone,” he said.

At the service people “can openly acknowledge that life has changed, and make the transition to the reality that their loved one won’t be there for the holidays,” said Karen Schultz, a Hinsdale-based counselor, licensed clinical social worker, therapist,

A member of the clergy will offer a prayer, and then Schultz will speak on working through grief to a “new normal” with hope and courage. Individuals and families, including children, then light their candles and acknowledge who the candle is for.

“The candles remove the darkness of grief and say ‘I love you’,” Schultz said. “When you see 150 or more candles lifted up, it’s awesome.”

Music is provided by piano accompaniment to inspirational singing by Barbara Bossany, Adolf advance planning consultant, who Schultz said “sings like an angel.”

Afterward, guests are invited to stay for refreshments and to meet and converse with others.

The service is free but reservations are required.

A guest looks at the Touch Bar on a MacBook computer. out online forms. Apple’s Maps app offers one-touch access to nearby businesses or directions. Mail and Messages offer auto-complete suggestions as you type, plus a button for emojis, similar to what you’d find on iPhones and iPads.

You get touch access to system controls, such as “cancel” and “save,” so you don’t have to move your cursor.

Third-party apps can add their own functionality, too, although the ones I use regularly have yet to do so.

Habits and discoveries

The new volume and brightness sliders are much easier to use than tapping the appropriate function key multiple times to get the level I want. In Photos, I can scroll through my library more quickly than using arrow keys. And the

Touch Bar does make it easy to include emojis in messages.

Because I use it frequently, I made the screenshot function a default icon.

No more opening Grab, navigating a menu and returning to the window I’m trying to preserve. I’ve also discovered functions I never knew existed, such as the ability to highlight text in Preview with different colors.

This may matter less if, like me, you’re a pretty good typist with a command of keyboard shortcuts. The Touch Bar will be more useful for those who look down at the keys when typing.

One suggestion: The mute icon stays the same regardless of whether the Mac is already on mute. How about a distinct icon to unmute, now that the options are dynamic?

Fingerprints

The Mac now turns on automatically when you open the lid. In place of a power button is a fingerprint scanner, similar to what’s found on mobile devices. You still have to type in a password occasionally as a security measure, but you can avoid doing so most of the time when resuming a session or installing new software.

People sharing a computer instantly can switch profiles with their own fingerprints.

24 Preventing sleep apnea will help heart Note to readers: This column originally ran in December 2014.

Dear Dr. K: At my last checkup, my doctor asked if I snore. When I told the doctor my husband says I snore a lot, the doctor said snoring can be a sign of heart disease, particularly in postmenopausal women. What does snoring have to do with heart disease?

Dear Reader: Snoring is not a sign of heart disease, but it can be a sign of sleep apnea. And people with sleep apnea are at greater risk for heart disease.

Sleep apnea is a condition that causes brief, repeated pauses in breathing throughout the night. A woman’s risk of sleep apnea rises after menopause. That’s when levels of the hormone progesterone (which increases the number of breaths per minute) decline. In addition to affecting your slumber, sleep apnea can threaten your heart health.

My colleague Dr. Lawrence Epstein is associate medical director for the Sleep Clinic at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women’s Hospital. He explains sleep apnea is a risk factor for high blood pressure, which raises the risk of both heart attacks and strokes. Sleep apnea also is more common in people who are obese. And obesity is itself a risk factor for heart disease.

So that’s why your doctor asked about snoring. If you have sleep apnea, you might be at higher risk for heart disease.

Snoring is just one sign of sleep apnea.

Other signs include daytime drowsiness, morning headaches or mood changes.

If your doctor suspects sleep apnea, he or she may refer you for a sleep study. This test can confirm or rule it out.

The gold standard treatment for sleep apnea is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). CPAP blows air into the airways to keep them open at night. It is

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff nearly 100 percent effective at treating sleep apnea, and it improves blood pressure in people with sleep apnea who have heart disease.

But here’s the catch with CPAP: You have to use it. Some people find CPAP uncomfortable at night and don’t use it as prescribed.

There are other options. For example, an oral appliance, which looks like a mouth guard or retainer, can help prevent your tongue from falling back and blocking the airway while you sleep. For many people who find CPAP uncomfortable, this is a pretty good option.

If you do have sleep apnea, try some lifestyle changes. They may reduce your apnea episodes enough to avoid the need for treatment.

• Turn over. In some people, apnea occurs only when they’re on their back. If that’s true for you, buy a body pillow to keep you on your side.

• Avoid alcohol. Alcohol is a muscle relaxant. It can slacken the tissues of your throat while you sleep.

• Stop smoking. Cigarette smoking causes the upper airway to swell.

• Lose weight. One of the best ways to prevent – or eliminate – sleep apnea is to shed extra pounds.

These changes not only can improve your sleep apnea, they also may reduce your risk of heart trouble and strokes.

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

DEAR ABBY My daughter and son-in-law Jeanne have only one Phillips vehicle that is running. He works out of town, so he drives it, which leaves my daughter home all day without transportation.

Earlier in the school year, they signed up my granddaughter for after-school sports, and she has to practice every day. Since my daughter has no way to take her, they expect me to pick up my granddaughter and bring her home. This means I have to wait for her for about an hour after I get off work, which delays me an hour or more getting home.

After working all day, I’m tired. I just want to get home and get all the things done I need to do, so I can rest and get ready for work again the next day. I’m not sure what I should do. I feel like I’m being taken advantage of. Any advice you can give will be greatly appreciated. – Tired And Used Dear Tired: This shouldn’t be your responsibility. When your daughter and son-in-law signed up the child for sports, they should have thought it through. Rather than impose upon you, perhaps they should ask the parents of other children in the program if your granddaughter could ride along.

If that’s not feasible, consider this: You stated your son-in-law drives the only running vehicle, which leads me to believe they have another one that’s broken down.

Could you loan or give them money to put it in working condition? If so, you would be off the hook.

Dear Abby: I’m the manager of a medium-sized apartment building with several older tenants. As these tenants get older, their needs become greater. When it’s time for the children and family to step in, not all do.

Some think – and actually have told me – giving the manager $20 at Christmas will ensure Mom/Dad gets to the grocery store, bank and doctor, and the bills are paid all year.

Abby, this is not my family, and I do not feel obligated to take them to run their errands. Their children then tell me, “What am supposed to do? I don’t have time,” etc., and I reply it’s their responsibility, not mine.

Is there a legal means to make them take care of their own? Threatening to have them charged with elder abuse doesn’t always work. – Not A Day Care Or Retirement

ACROSS 1 Common name for a cowboy 6 Winner’s cry in a card game 9 Leaky parts of an old tent, often 14 ___ nous 15 A, in Asunción 16 Dustup 17 Hidden symbol between the “E” and “x” in the FedEx logo 18 Drug for Timothy Leary 19 End of a lasso 20 Nipple 21 Cloudless 23 Elizabethan stringed instrument 24 Fedora or fez 25 Final part of a relay 27 [their error, not mine] 28 Actor Christian of “Mr. Robot”

HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Refuse to give in to emotional manipulation this year. Take a look at the facts and make decisions that will benefit you, your family and your future. Stand tall and bring about the changes at home or work that will guarantee you move forward in a positive manner.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Set up interviews or collaborate with someone who is as aggressive and hardworking as you are. There are gains to be made if you take the initiative.

Progressive thinking will bring good results.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Stick to simple changes that will not result in uncertainty with friends or relatives. Understanding the impact

of change and offering people incentives and options will pay off.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – You need to set high standards and goals for yourself and others. Strive for equality, peace and happiness.

Don’t back away from change or controversy.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Too much input from outsiders will confuse you. If you feel uncertain about something, take the time to do some research before you make a decision.

Don’t give in to pressure.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Set your strategy to advance and start working your way toward your goal. Consider adding to your qualifications, negotiating a deal or investing in something you want to pursue.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Don’t get involved

in joint ventures or lend or borrow money or possessions. Protect what you have and refuse to give in to someone pressuring you for a donation or help.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Set high standards and proceed with passion. Your actions will make a statement that will lead to recognition and new opportunities. Youngsters and seniors will play a role in your decisions.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Don’t trust your peers. Sharing personal information will put you in a precarious position. Don’t feel the need to make changes just because someone else does.

Moderation is in your best interest.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Don’t get angry when you can get moving. Making alterations to your home or job will be rejuvenating. Children and

elders will contribute insight that will help you make a decision.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Emotional matters will flare up, causing you to miss other opportunities. Put things in perspective and distance yourself from whatever is causing frustration, stress or personal unhappiness.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – You need to step up your game and bring about changes that will make you feel good about who you are and what you do. Jump at an opportunity. Indecision will lead to regret.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – A missed opportunity will encourage a new idea. Reuse old material to construct something unique and applicable to current trends. Romance is encouraged and will improve your personal life.

Ludwig Mies van der Rohe said, “Architecture starts when you carefully put two bricks together.” A bridge deal starts when you carefully put 13 cards together. How you play those cards, of course, will determine your score on the deal.

Today, South is in six spades. What should he do after West finds the best lead of a trump?

North’s four-club rebid was a splinter: four-card spade support, game-going values and a singleton (or void) in clubs. It was a slight overbid, especially since North has such bad trumps. If South had had weak spades and strong clubs, making three no-trump the best game, it would have been hard to get there over four clubs! But a three-spade rebid would have been a tad cautious.

If only he could have bid three-andtwo-thirds spades.

The winning line, assuming there was one, depended upon guessing correctly. If trumps were 4-1, declarer needed the diamond finesse to be winning. But if the spades were the more-likely 3-2, he could afford to lose a diamond as long as he took two club ruffs on the board. Then, his 12 tricks would be four spades, two hearts, three diamonds, one club and the two ruffs.

However, it was not that straightforward. After quite some time running different play sequences through his mind, South saw the best plan. After the club ruff at trick three, he led a low diamond from the dummy. East won and played another trump, but declarer won, ruffed a second club, took the top hearts, ruffed a heart, drew the missing trump and claimed.

JOHNSBURG FOOTBALL

A season like no other

State runner-up team honored at high school

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com JOHNSBURG – Complete with a fireworks show, Johnsburg did what it has done throughout the fall Monday evening: support the Skyhawks football team.

Monday’s celebration rally originally was scheduled to take place at the Johnsburg Athletic Field, where the 13-1 season all went down.

A persistent rain forced the celebration inside, but celebrate the comDan DeBoeuf munity did.

Friends and family rallied around the Skyhawks one last time to commemorate the best season in school history, one that ended with a 3814 loss to Rochester in the IHSA Class 4A state championship game Friday.

“The outcome wasn’t what we wanted, but there’s no community more tight-knit than this,” senior lineman Joe Moore said. “I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”

His coach offered a similar sentiment.

“Getting everybody together one more time and celebrating the best team in school history is pretty special,” coach Dan DeBoeuf said. “It’s going to be big for the future. They know what the expectations are now.”

With the runner-up trophy at center court in the Johnsburg gymnasium, the coaches were introduced, then the players, starting with the freshmen and ending with the seniors.

The crowd cheered for every one of them.

Three seniors were honored for the special awards they received in recent days. Quarterback Riley Buchanan was named to the Class 4A academic allstate team, Moore was named a Class 4A honorable mention all-state performer, and running back Alex Peete was named to the Class 4A all-state team.

Each had his moment in front of the crowd.

“Everybody is proud of us and you can tell the community is happy,” Peete said. “At the time, it sucked. We lost

There’s nothing to be down about.”

Next, the senior captains presented the runner-up trophy to Johnsburg Principal Kevin Shelton. Shelton commended the team and coaches for leading by example. He also thanked athletic director Tom Ross and assistant athletic director Kelley Layton for their hard work.

Shelton said afterward that this fall has been unlike any other he has experienced at Johnsburg. A former assistant football coach at Johnsburg in the 1990s, Shelton has been the principal since 2006.

“Whether you were someone who played football back when Johnsburg first started or (someone who) has been part of the more recent success, this is a dream for most small towns,” Shelton said. “The fact that they were able to get to state is a huge accomplishment.

“It takes a special combination of things to accomplish something of that level. For it to happen in a community like this, just such a great group of quality players and coaches – both in and out of school – it’s just really

impressive.”

The players sang the school song with the crowd and jammed to their unofficial anthem – Billy Squier’s “The

Stroke” – before everyone headed outside for a fireworks show.

Under a sky illuminated by fireworks, Johnsburg celebrated its team.

QB Houston likely to start Saturday

Wisconsin quarterback Bart Houston throws a pass against Minnesota during the first half Saturday in Madison, Wis. and focused.”

Peavy, whose 71-yard scamper on a jet sweep set up Corey Clement’s 2-yard touchdown run to snap a 17-all tie, said Houston has a “fun, goofy personality” that bodes well in pressure situations.

“Bart brings that ease to the group of guys in the huddle. He allows us to be a little more freely and not uptight,” Peavy said.

Chryst has come to appreciate his senior quarterback’s approach to the

game on and off the field.

“One thing I have enjoyed and appreciate from Bart is I think he is having fun playing the game,” Chryst said.

Houston, who scrambled 12 yards to sustain a third quarter scoring drive, has proved he can make plays with his arm and his feet.

“Bart does a great job of being in the moment,” Chryst said.

Note: Offensive lineman Jacob Maxwell has been ruled out for Saturday with a right shoulder injury.

By-law changes proposed for December ballot NORTHWEST HERALD The IHSA Legislative Commission voted Monday to refer eight proposals to amend the IHSA’s constitution and by-laws. The proposals will be voted on by each member school’s official IHSA representative during the month of December.

Each proposal will be voted on separately. Proposals included would: • Allow a school to show video evidence that an ejected player has been

misidentified. The IHSA executive director could then overturn the ensuing one-game suspension.

• Set a procedure for removing a member of the IHSA Board of Directors for cause, requiring two-thirds majority vote from the other board members.

• Require a new high school principal to attend a workshop or view an online presentation for new school administrators.

• Allow open gyms at off-site facilities during an athletic season. Current-

ly, open gyms are restricted to on-site facilities.

• Move the start of the boys and girls golf practice two days earlier in August and the start of the boys and girls golf season four days earlier.

• Change the season limitation for girls and boys soccer to 25 contests before the state tournament. The current limitation is a combination of contests plus tournaments.

The results from the member schools vote will be posted Jan. 4.

MADISON, Wis. – Bart Houston began the season as Wisconsin’s starting quarterback before losing his job to Alex Hornibrook.

With Hornibrook listed as questionable with a head injury for the Big Ten title game against No. 8 Penn State (102, 8-1 Big Ten) on Saturday, the No. 6 Badgers (10-2, 7-2) might have to turn back to Houston. A fifth-year senior, Houston rallied the Badgers to a 31-17 victory over Minnesota on Saturday.

“No doubt he’s given us a spark a number of times, it’s been good to see,” Wisconsin coach Paul Chryst said Monday.

Houston took over for Hornibrook when he was injured late in the second quarter against the Golden Gophers and led Wisconsin to 24 second-half points. Wide receiver Jazz Peavy said Houston’s fun-loving persona helps keep the team loose no matter what the situation is.

“In the fourth quarter we were going into one of these drives and Bart comes into the huddle telling jokes and stuff like that,” Peavy said with a laugh. “I’m thinking this guy’s really relaxed right now, and I’m locked in

BULLS

Shooter cleared for noncontact after concussion

By HERB GOULD For the Sun-Times

AP file photo

The Bulls’ Doug McDermott drives against the Indiana Pacers on Nov. 5 in Indianapolis. McDermott was cleared for noncontact practice Monday for the first time since suffering a concussion Nov. 12.

“Doug is a big part of our bench,” Wade said. “He spreads the floor for us.

Some nights he can go out and score 20-something for us. We can’t wait to get Doug back out there with us.”

Wade also is looking forward to seeing his former Miami Heat teammate, Cavs star LeBron James, come to Chicago on Friday – wearing a Cubs uni-

a chance to win on a nightly basis.”

One big key, of course, is the way Wade has been mentoring Butler.

“Jimmy is a super-talented guy who loves the game,” Wade said. “He’s watching film all the time. He’s the perfect student. For me, he’s just adding a little extra recipe to what he already has. I’m a chef, he’s a cook. Try to make him a chef. He’s having an unbelievable season. He can do this. What he’s doing now, this is not a facade. This is not luck. This is the way he can play night in and night out.”

And that’s what Butler is intent on doing.

Hoiberg saw the togetherness during the just-completed road trip, which turned from a grind into an opportunity.

“Guys took it upon themselves to do team activities and team dinners,” the coach said. “These guys genuinely like each other.”

Wade sees the same positive signs.

“We’re enjoying playing together,” the veteran said. “Hopefully, we’re not even close to where we want to be. I look at our record and say ‘10-6? I think we can be 12-4!’ Y’know? That’s how we look at it. But it could be worse as well.

It could be worse as well. We’re in a good place.”

BLACKHAWKS NOTES

Without injured Toews, Hawks struggle on faceoffs

By BRIAN HEDGER For the Sun-Times

CHICAGO – They earned three points in the final two games of the “circus trip” without Jonathan Toews, but his injury leaves a big void.

Toews, who suffered an upper-body injury Wednesday in San Jose, didn’t practice Monday and is questionable against the Florida Panthers on Tuesday night at the United Center.

The Hawks were dominated in faceoffs and puck possession in each game he missed but managed to beat the Anaheim Ducks, 3-2, and earn a point out of a 2-1 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Kings.

“When you’re missing a guy like that, you’ve got to find other ways to work around it,” said Marcus Kruger, the Hawks’ next best at winning faceoffs (48 percent). “I think we did a good job, but we obviously want him back as soon as we can.”

Toews does a lot of things, but his

ability to win faceoffs against the NHL’s best centers is reason enough to want him back. Since he left against the Sharks, the Hawks have won just 50 of 155 faceoffs the past twoplus games (32.3 percent).

They won 26.8 percent against the Ducks, as season low, and won 36.2 percent Jonathan against the Kings. As Toews a team, the Hawks have already plummeted from 14th in the NHL (49.7 percent) to 29th (47.9 percent) – a stat their faceoff guru, Yanic Perreault, pointed out Monday to coach Joel Quenneville.

“You get 21/2 games without [Toews] taking faceoffs, you know how valuable he is,” Quenneville said.

Toews is off to a slow start offensively but is having a great season at the dot – even for him. Winning more than 50 percent is considered good,

and Toews’ career win rate is 57.2 percent.

He has taken 484 faceoffs this season, fourth-most in the NHL, and has won 292 for a 60.3 percentage. He has won 61.2 percent at even strength, 59.7 percent on power-plays and 55.4 percent while the Hawks are shorthanded.

Artem Anisimov and Kruger take most of the key faceoffs when Toews is out, and each is winning less than 50 percent.

“I thought we did relatively well without starting with the puck against two good teams, but we know how good Johnny is – as good as anybody in the league,” Quenneville said. “We certainly miss that aspect of it, and the other guys (on the ice) got to know that we need to be improving, not just the centermen. We need help.”

Getting Toews back would be a big boost. He might take part in the morning skate but will be re-evaluated Tuesday regardless.

Maintenance crew: Toews wasn’t the only one missing from practice. Anisimov, Marian Hossa and Scott Darling also were absent. Anisimov and Hossa took maintenance days, and Darling was sick. Goaltending coach Jimmy Waite stood in for Darling, who is expected to back up Corey Crawford on Tuesday.

‘TVR’ practicing: Injured defenseman Trevor van Riemsdyk participated in his first practice since suffering an upper-body injury Oct. 21 in Columbus. Quennevillle said he won’t play Tuesday but will be evaluated each day.

Campbell ‘shocked’ by move: Brian Campbell, who played five seasons with the Panthers, had the same reaction as many others to the news former coach Gerard Gallant was fired Sunday. “Gerard’s a great guy,” Campbell said. “I liked him. I thought he did a good job there, so I was surprised, shocked. I don’t think anybody thought that was coming.”

• Tuesday, November 29, 2016

CHICAGO – Good news abounds in the Bulls’ world.

When they returned home from their tidy 4-2 circus road trip to practice on the West Side on Monday, Doug McDermott was back on the court for the first time since being sidelined by a concussion Nov. 12.

“Doug was cleared for noncontact, so he did the dummy portion of practice, went through our script offensive segment,” coach Fred Hoiberg said.

“Won’t know about [adding more Tuesday] until we see how he responds to today’s workload.”

The return of McDermott, who missed the whole six-game trip, only will add to the Bulls’ perimeter offense, which is enjoying an upgrade in 3-point shooting from Dwyane Wade and Jimmy Butler.

form, courtesy of their World Series wager.

“That’s a part of the deal,” said Wade, adding that James had to buy his own Cubs outfit. “I think he has enough money. He can come up with it. I’ve seen it. They put it out on Uninterrupted, which he’s a part of. He’s ready to go.”

And so, it seems, are the Bulls, who have silenced their critics with a surprisingly good start. Their 10-6 record, tied for second in the Eastern Conference, does not a season make. But it is encouraging, considering that an offseason of major change created a lot of uncertainty.

“The biggest thing that I’m pleased with this group is how much we’re competing,” second-year coach Hoiberg said. “We had a chance to go 6-0 on that trip. I’m so proud of the way these guys compete on a nightly basis.”

Not only are the Bulls harnessing their talent. They’re meshing together without the melodrama and subplots that had crept into the organization the last few years.

Hoiberg likes “the competitive spirit and the way they’ve bought in and the togetherness – they don’t care who gets the credit. When you have that type of chemistry, you’re going to have

Tiger returns to competition this week

Questions more mental than physical for Woods

By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press

NASSAU, Bahamas – Tiger Woods has gone through two back surgeries since he last played a golf tournament 15 months ago. He had another back surgery that knocked him out of the Masters for the first time in 2014. He had four knee surgeries before that.

None of that matters to Ernie Els when Woods returns to competition this week.

Els is more curious about what’s going on in his head.

“The talent’s there. It’s been proven. It doesn’t go away,” Els said. “It’s what you think of yourself. It’s what you think where you are. We look at this great player, but he’s not seeing the same stuff in his own mind. A lot of us are like that. When you’ve achieved as much as he has ... it’s a shock to the system not to play as good as you have been. To look at other people looking at you like, ‘Hey, you’re not the same guy,’ that’s hard to take.”

Els, perhaps more than any other player, has a deep golfing connection with Woods.

He was the player Woods sought out 20 years ago at Royal Lytham & St. Annes when deciding whether to

AP file photo

Tiger Woods watches his shot Aug. 20, 2015, on the 12th hole during the first round of the Wyndham Championship golf tournament in Greensboro, N.C. turn pro. They had so many meaningful battles, and Woods almost always got the better of him. Els was runner-up to Woods seven times, the most of any player.

Els designed the Albany golf course where Woods comes back from the longest layoff of his career.

He plans to be in the Bahamas, and he is as eager as anyone else to see how a guy who won 79 times on the PGA

Tour, including 14 majors, stacks up against a generation that grew up in awe of how Woods played golf.

The Hero World Challenge is a holiday tournament with an 18-man field and no cut. Even so, it commands as much attention as any tournament this year. Woods has been a star attraction his entire career, and the appetite is even stronger after an absence that dates to Aug. 23, 2015.

“I can’t wait to watch, either, just to see him play,” Ryder Cup captain Davis Love III said. “The last time I saw him play, I won. It’s hard to believe it’s been that long. I’ve seen his swing. I’ve seen him on video. He’s sent me clips, and I’ve heard the description of how he feels. I’m excited to see him play.”

“You’ve got to start somewhere,” he added. “And I want to see the start.”

Woods already has had one false start. He signed up to play the Safeway Open, only to pull out three days later because he said he felt “vulnerable.”

That followed a week as assistant captain at the Ryder Cup, and cramming in practice the week before with results that made him want to wait.

Love won the Wyndham Championship last year in August at age 51, and it could easily have served as a model for Woods – a power player no longer in his prime, not among the biggest hitters anymore, but with enough experience and talent to find a way to score and to win.

“It has to motivate him that Vijay Singh is lasting until 53, that Ernie is still competitive, that Davis is still competitive,” Love said. “He knows Jack Nicklaus won the Masters in 1986 playing part time. He knows what everybody has done. I know he’s working hard not to come back and be average. He wants to come back and win again.”

Free-agent compensation, international draft top issues

By RONALD BLUM

The Associated Press NEW YORK – Negotiators for baseball players and owners are meeting this week in Irving, Texas, in an attempt to reach agreement on a collective bargaining agreement to replace the five-year contract that expires Thursday. After eight work stoppages from 1972-95, baseball has had 21 years of labor peace.

Some of the issues in negotiations:

FREE AGENCY COMPENSATION

Compensation for the loss of free agents has been an issue since the freeagent era began in 1976. The statistical ranking system established in the 1981 strike settlement was scrapped in the current agreement that began with the

2012-13 offseason and replaced by qualifying offers: A team would be entitled to draft-pick compensation if a player left as a free agent after failing to accept a one-year contract for the average salary among the 125 highest-paid players ($17.2 million this year) and the signing club would lose a top pick.

Five of 64 free agents who received qualifying offers accepted during the current agreement, and some lessthan-premier free agents who received offers said their market was limited by teams not wanting to give up draft selections.

INTERNATIONAL AMATEUR DRAFT

Commissioner Rob Manfred has said restraints on contracts for international amateur players have not been as effective as management had

hoped, and he is a proponent of an international draft that would cover residents outside the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. The union has been resistant.

CURRENT AMATEUR DRAFT

Teams spent $234 million in the 2011 draft on amateurs residing in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. The total dropped to $209 million in the first year of restraints, went up to $220 million the following year, then rose to $224 million in 2014, $249 million in 2015 and $268 million this year.

The sides are negotiating the slot figures used to determine signing bonus pools and the penalties for exceeding pools. Some have expressed concern that the slot values early in the first round encourage a team not headed

to the postseason to tank in the final weeks to get higher draft picks and a larger signing bonus pool.

LUXURY TAX

One of the last items in the negotiations will be the luxury tax. The threshold for the tax has been $189 million for the past three years, and for the past four years, the rate has been 17.5 percent for the first time over the threshold, increasing to 30 percent for the second time in a row, 40 percent for the third and 50 percent for the fourth or subsequent. An increase to $200 million or more is likely, which should lead to greater spending by high-revenue teams currently at or above the threshold. The union and some teams would like the rate to reset for all teams in 2017.

2 Colorado football players charged after fight outside bar

BOULDER, Colo. – Colorado special teams player Jaleel Awini and backup tight end Christopher Hill have been suspended for the Pac-12 championship game after being arrested after a fight outside a bar.

Awini and Hill were arrested Sunday morning – hours after the Buffaloes clinched the Pac-12 South.

A police report said Hill punched Awini in the jaw, and an unconscious Awini fell to the ground. Hill left the scene.

Officers found what appeared to be cocaine in Awini’s wallet. He could face charges of unlawful possession of a controlled substance.

Hill was cited for third-degree assault.

The Boulder Daily Camera first reported the charges.

Awini is suspended indefinitely. Hill

is suspended for Friday’s game at this point while coach Mike MacIntyre gathers more information, the school said.

Yankees release Eovaldi, Rumbelow, Mantiply

NEW YORK – Injured pitcher Nathan Eovaldi has been released by the New York Yankees along with right-hander Nick Rumbelow and lefty Joe Mantiply.

The trio had been designated for assignment Nov. 18, and the Yankees announced their release Monday.

Eovaldi will be sidelined next season as he recovers from Aug. 19 surgery to repair a torn flexor tendon and partially torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow.

Carolina places Jordan Staal on IR with concussion

RALEIGH, N.C. – The Carolina Hurricanes have placed forward Jordan Staal on injured reserve with a concussion.

General manager Ron Francis announced the move Monday night, a day after Staal was injured during a 3-2 victory over Florida.

Staal has five goals and four assists in 21 games with the Hurricanes, who have won six of seven entering Tuesday night’s game at the New York Rangers.

To fill his spot, the Hurricanes recalled forward Phil Di Giuseppe from their AHL affiliate in Charlotte. He has seven goals and 10 assists in 52 games.

Trevathan suffers ruptured patellar tendon, goes on IR

The Green Bay Packers’ Trevor Davis scores a touchdown against the Eagles’ Nolan Carroll during the first half Monday in Philadelphia.

PACKERS 27, EAGLES 13

Rodgers, Pack hand Eagles 1st home loss

By ROB MAADDI

The Associated Press PHILADELPHIA – Aaron Rodgers threw two touchdown passes to Davante Adams, and the Green Bay Packers beat the Philadelphia Eagles, 27-13, Monday night to snap a four-game losing streak.

Rodgers had 313 yards passing and Adams had 113 yards receiving to help send Philadelphia (5-6) to its first home loss this season.

The Packers (5-6) kept their sinking playoff hopes alive, but they’re still two games behind the Lions (7-4) in the NFC North.

“Winning is very difficult in this league, and we haven’t had the feeling in five weeks,” Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. “We missed it. It felt good. It’s a product of December football. We’re getting ready to go into the toughest days of the season, and you need these wins.”

Philadelphia’s Carson Wentz had 254 yards passing, ran for a score and threw an interception. The last-place Eagles are 2-6 since a 3-0 start.

Rodgers came out firing and led the Packers on consecutive touchdown drives to start the game. Rodgers extended the opening drive by running twice for 25 yards and tossed a 12yard TD pass to Adams for a 7-0 lead.

After the Eagles answered on Wentz’s 1-yard TD run, Rodgers led another 75-yard scoring drive. He threw a perfect 20-yard TD pass to Adams to give the Packers a 14-7 lead

early in the second quarter. Nolan Carroll had excellent coverage on the play, but Rodgers put the ball in a tight spot and hit Adams in stride in the back of the end zone.

Aaron Ripkowski’s 1-yard TD run early in the fourth quarter extended Green Bay’s lead to 24-13.

The Eagles had allowed only three touchdowns at home while outscoring opponents 108-38 in their first four games at Lincoln Financial Field.

Green Bay gave up at least 30 points in each of its previous four games, including 89 in the past two. But the defense harassed Wentz and shut down the Eagles’ inconsistent offense.

Philadelphia’s Caleb Sturgis kicked field goals of 48 and 50 yards while Green Bay’s Mason Crosby connected from 33 and 32 yards.

THEY SAID IT McCarthy on Rodgers: “His positive attitude has been consistent through all this time.

He’s grown as a quarterback since the start of 2008, and grown as a person all the way through. He’s an excellent leader, always has been.”

Wentz: “We struggled to get in a rhythm, and we couldn’t stay on the field.”

KEY STATS

The Packers were 10 for 14 on third down and 1 for 1 on fourth. The Eagles had no sacks and no takeaways.

LAKE FOREST – The Bears are placing their 15th player of the season on injured reserve, and it’s another starter and leader.

Inside linebacker Danny Trevathan ruptured the patellar tendon in his right knee late in Sunday’s loss to the Titans, coach John Fox confirmed Monday at Halas Hall.

“He’s obviously a very talented player, one that we targeted and went after,” Fox said. “... It was a semi-contact injury, kind of behind the ball, he planted wrong and the injury occurred. He’ll fight back, he’s been through it before. (He) had a similar injury a couple years ago that he worked through, and he’ll do the same off of this one.”

Despite missing two games with the thumb injury, Trevathan was second on the team with 66 tackles. He also had four passes defensed and one sack.

John Timu likely will start in his spot next to Nick Kwiatkoski, who is starting for the suspended Jerrell Freeman.

Recapping the drops: Fox attributed the high number of drops from Bears pass catchers in Sunday’s loss to the Titans, including two in the end zone on the final drive, to a lack of game experience.

“I can honestly say I’ve been doing this for a long time, no matter what team, even as an assistant coach – I don’t know that I’ve ever seen receivers catch more balls than I do in practice,” he said. “I think it’s just a matter of

being out there more. Like I mentioned yesterday, I think Marquess Wilson, it was his second game this season. He hasn’t been playing football for months and months.

“Like everything, if it doesn’t go real well, the more you do it, the better you get. I think those game conditions are a little bit different from practice. A lot of those guys probably played more in this game than they had all season.”

Outside linebacker Willie Young, empathizing with Josh Bellamy, reflected on a game against the Packers when he played for the Lions and let Aaron Rodgers get outside the pocket for a long touchdown run.

“What I learned from that was you know you’ve got to figure out how to overcome obstacles,” he said. “It’s all about the process and not so much about what happened – the outcome. ... I had teammates to lean on because I was heated about that. So at the end of the day, absolutely, man.

‘Hey, bro, put it past you. It’s going to eat you alive. I know it. But hey, you’ve got to put it past you because we need you next week.

We need you to step up next week.’ ” Running back Jordan Howard dropped a pass that he admitted could have been a touchdown in the first quarter.

“Just lets you know that you have to focus in on even the smallest things,” he said. “You might catch a thousand passes at practice but in a game, if you just take your eye off the ball, you might drop it or something like that. So you’ve got to lock in more.”

Bears linebacker Danny Trevathan is attended to after suffering a knee injury Sunday against the Titans at Soldier Field.
