Pharmacy by voice command takes some getting used to My pharmacy apparently is trying to keep up with the 21st century, so it has us carrying on conversations with a machine.

I’m not sure I like it. They jury is still out on this one.

To call in prescription refills, you used to have to use your numeric keypad on your telephone. Press a certain number, and you would get the pharmacy. Press another number, and you would get another department, although I never called for anything other than the pharmacy, so I don’t know where that would have taken me.

Then you would punch in the digits for your birthday so the system could begin to sort out who you were. Then you would punch in your prescription number, and it would repeat it back to you. The next question was dumb – and I know they say no question is dumb – but it would ask you if you wanted to refill it. Press 1 for yes and 2 for no. Of course I want it refilled, I would tell myself each and every time. Why do you think I entered all those numbers in the first place? Just to play games?

It also would ask when you wanted to pick up your order, tomorrow or today, and what time you wanted to pick it up. Finally, it would verify your telephone number, and even though I knew it wouldn’t get my phone number wrong, I always listened to it, just to make sure, before pressing 1. Then my order was complete.

What you didn’t want to happen is to have to talk to a live person, which regularly would happen if your prescription was out of refills and the doctor needed to be contacted, which pharmacies do automatically. You would be placed on hold, and it played the worst scratchy music you could imagine, punctuated every so often by a statement that other customers were being served, and it would be a few minutes before your call would be answered. This could go on for 10 minutes.

What really should have happened – and what usually did – was you were told the pharmacy would have to contact your doctor to get permission to refill the prescription, so allow extra time for the order to be processed. But every so often, you would get kicked back to a pharmacy technician, who would ask what you wanted.

And you would have to explain that the computer set up the call and you were just trying to refill a prescription, and you would have to go over everything again, which was kind of aggravating. OK, so I wanted to scream. But I

VIEWS Dick Peterson never did. Composure counts.

Now, you need to talk to the computer to process your prescription, and it’s not the same happy woman’s voice you were used to hearing in the past. This is a computer voice meant to sound human. And if you want the pharmacy, you have to say “pharmacy.” And because you are talking to a computer, I make it a point to sound like a computer myself, and say “pharmacy” without inflection. Because if you don’t say it clearly enough, the computer will come back with, “I’m sorry, but I did not hear you,” and then repeat the options.

It could have said what it really was thinking: “What? Do you have rocks in your mouth?

Speak clearly, for crying out loud.” But it is programmed to be polite.

This one goes directly to the heart of the matter and asks you to read off the prescription number or use the keypad if you are so inclined. I’ve done both, and I have come to find out that it is easier to tell the computer what to do than to try to punch in the numbers on the keypad. The numbers are read back to you, and you confirm it by saying “yes.” Then it launches into a spiel about automatically refilling your order, and it seems as though I have to listen to it forever before I say “no.”

It asks if you have more prescriptions to fill, and you can repeat the process. Instead of asking you when you want to pick your prescription up, it suggests a time, which is after 8 a.m. the next day, but it also asks if you need it sooner.

And that’s pretty much it. It doesn’t confirm your telephone number, it just lets you know you can hang up if you are done.

Actually, the voice-activated computer is pretty efficient, but I feel funny talking to a computer when I should be pushing buttons on the keypad. It’s a little more discreet than announcing to the world you are talking to the pharmacy, and if you didn’t hear me, I can speak up and articulate more clearly.

District 47 students get a taste of growing STEM fields

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Electrical engineer Evan Klepitsch recently visited Hannah Beardsley Middle School, his old stomping ground, to teach Crystal Lake Community Consolidated School District 47 students about engineering and what he does on a day-to-day basis.

“I hope that they understand what opportunities are available to them in this field,” Klepitsch said. “And hopefully see that engineering is a fun career that is also a rewarding one.”

I hope that they understand what opportunities are available to them in this field.”

During his visit, Klepitsch, who works for security company Northrop Grumman, shared with eighth-grade students a brief description of his duties as an engineer and then gave them an assignment. Students were tasked with building a structure out of a few sheets of paper and tape that would EVAN KLEPITSCH, hold a textbook 40 centimeters off of electrical engineer the ground.

Cary increases scope, cost of Metra station project Contract raised to $312,000

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com CARY – Cary officials have approved an increase in the scope, and cost, of a project to upgrade the village’s more than 50-year-old Metra station.

Alterations requested throughout the duration of the project by all stakeholders – the village, the Illinois Department of Transportation, Union Pacific and Metra – require an increase in the amount that can be spent under the village’s architectural and site engineering design services agreement with Muller and Muller Ltd. The original contract had an amount not to exceed about $279,000, while the new one is authorized for an amount not to exceed about $312,000, according to village documents.

“It’s a unique project, and it’s on a narrow strip of land,” interim Village Administrator Jake Rife said. “And you have a lot of stake-

holders involved in this. … They’ve all been great partners in this project, and we’re just working through challenges coming up.”

One of those challenges is relocating a fiber optic network at the site, Rife said. Other items that have been requested include a guardrail warrant analysis, relocation of an existing shelter canopy to the outbound platform and additional Americans with Disabilities Act improvements, documents show.

About $2 million of the estimated $2.5 million to $3 million project will be covered by a federal grant, Rife said. The rest of the cost will be picked up by the village. The original estimate for design services was $300,000, according to village documents.

Construction for the project previously was estimated to begin in 2016, but likely will not start until 2018, Rife said, and would be completed later that year.

Future items regarding the station that will be coming before the Village Board include

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

Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com • Sunday, January 22, 2017

Dr. William A. Hepburn of Ringwood is shown with a bike in a picture before 1900. The 1968 county history book states that Hepburn “delivered more than 1,200 babies” before his death on March 26, 1961.

Let’s hope he used a faster mode of transportation when he received calls from pending parents! The bicycle turns 200 this year. A German civil servant to the Grand Duke of Baden, Baron Karol von Drais, invented a foot-powered “running machine” in 1817, which he patented the subsequent year as the “velocipede.” The “boneshaker,” the first bike to have front-wheel pedals, arrived in 1858, followed by the still-popular “high wheeler” in 1866. Groups such as the Illinois Wheelmen, who appeared at the McHenry County Historical Society Museum last summer, remain devoted aficionados. It wasn’t until 1868 that bicycles began to be mass produced. The chain-driven bicycle we’ve come to recognize and appreciate coasted in during 1879.

McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office to expand first offender program

By JORDYN REILAND

jreiland@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office’s first offender program now will include misdemeanor offenses.

The program, designed for nonviolent first-time offenders, offers those who qualify a chance to appear before a panel of residents who are informed of the offense.

The panel recommends requirements for the offender that must be completed within a certain period of time.

These tasks could include restitution to the victim, writing a letter of apology, performing community service, obtaining a high school diploma or undergoing counseling.

Once the offender completes the requirements, the case

is dismissed. If they are not completed successfully, the case is returned to the courts to be prosecuted. The program previously was available only to first-time felony offenders.

State’s Attorney Patrick Kenneally said his office recognizes that people can make mistakes that do not necessarily define their character.

“While holding everyone that has violated the law accountable is paramount, inflexible approaches to prosecuting first-time [offenders] can cause unnecessary hardship by imposing criminal convictions that can have collateral consequences later in life,” Kenneally said in a statement.

“In addition, and in most cases, it is imprudent to expend limited court resources, derived from taxpayers, formally prosecuting first-time, nonviolent offenders.”

filiation would keep her from looking into Franks’ decision to hire two of his former employees during his time as a state representative into administrative roles. Franks has maintained that the hires are necessary, perfectly legal and no different from the authority that other countywide elected officials have.

Yensen defended her record and her integrity during her comments turning down consideration for the chairmanship.

Franks told the committee that Yensen had not approached him to seek a chairmanship. He asked board members to do a “gut check” and ask themselves if they care more about politics than policy.

“I want the best people serving the citizens of our county. All I want is to do the best for our citizens. I don’t want to play political games. We have here a lady with extraordinary talent.

She’s not going to get a fair shake today,” Franks told board members.

While Yensen’s case is not the first in which the County Board didn’t go with the chairman’s pick to head a committee, it is the most protract-

ed in recent county political memory.

The Committee on Committees, which typically only meets once after each November election to recommend assignments for new and returning members, now will meet a third time.

Its second meeting was to select members to the Human Resources Committee – which originally had gone along with Franks’ proposal to consolidate into Finance and Audit, but County Board members spared it, citing its importance.

Several members said human resources decisions are being held up, and are piling up, with the lack of a committee in place.

Donna Kurtz, R-Crystal Lake, opposed sending the matter back to committee.

“To go ahead and delay and take this kind of approach would mean, at best, March – March – before that particular group could get seated,” Kurtz said.

The County Board’s next voting meeting under its new once-a-month schedule is Feb. 16. A meeting time for the Committee on Committees had not been set as of Friday afternoon.

WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County Board still is without a Human Resources Committee after the nominees for both chairwoman and vice chairwoman turned down the leadership roles.

In a 13-10 vote earlier this week, board members sent the matter of seating the committee’s seven members back to the aptly named Committee on Committees to move another proposal forward. The move, however, leaves the County Board without an official committee through which to vet most hiring and collective bargaining decisions.

Paula Yensen, the 24-member board’s sole Democratic member not counting Chairman Jack Franks, D-Marengo, backed out of consideration for the chairmanship before what surely would have been a contentious debate and vote by the Republican majority. Yensen, D-Lake in the Hills, had been nominated to head the Public Health and Community Services Committee, but board members last

Freshman member Kay Bates, R-McHenry, likewise removed herself from consideration as vice chairwoman. Bates, who is president of the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce, concluded that she did not have the necessary experience for a leadership role.

“I think it needs to be a candidate – both of them – that we can embrace, that will bring people together and not divide,” Yensen said.

Yensen, a retired United Way director who has a Ph.D., has chaired a committee before. She was former chairwoman Tina Hill’s pick in 2012 to lead the former Management Services Committee, and she held the seat until losing her re-election bid in 2014.

Annual People in Need Forum set for Saturday at McHenry County College NORTHWEST HERALD

CRYSTAL LAKE – McHenry County residents are invited to register to become better informed of resources and support for themselves and others at the annual People in Need Forum on Saturday.

The forum will be from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at McHenry County College.

The annual event features people and resources available in the area to help individuals in need through breakout sessions, panel discussions and workshops.

Topics for the 2017 event include homelessness, veterans services, suicide prevention, Alzheimer’s disease, resources for young adults, financial planning, “too much month at the end of your money” help, therapy animals, human trafficking, children and families in crisis, heroin in McHenry County, rape culture and cyber safety.

Bev Thomas, forum coordinator at McHenry County College, said

that the People in Need Forum is a unique opportunity for volunteers, staff and professionals of human service, health facilities, government, civic and faith-based organizations to learn about important community resources.

There will be 75 exhibitors featured and at least 16 different workshops providing an opportunity for participants to take home practical information on how to resolve client and community member issues.

Thomas said attendance at the People in Need Forum has grown each year to more than 600 in 2016, and responses from participants are “overwhelmingly positive.”

“We are excited about how the McHenry County community supports this important event each year,” Thomas said. “It has become a yearlong effort to bring the best we can possibly offer to those interested in attending.”

Robin Doeden, executive director of the McHenry County Community Foundation, said the People in Need

Forum offers one-stop shopping for everything related to nonprofit assistance in our community.

“If you need help, agencies are here to provide services; if you are looking to volunteer, agencies are here to explore and get involved; and if you are here to learn more about your community and what is available for neighbors, family and friends, there is a wealth of knowledge to be had in a single room,” Doeden said.

Participants will receive helpful handouts and an updated community Resource Directory in both paper and electronic format, which is the only directory of its kind in McHenry County.

The event is free. Registration and continental breakfast will begin at 8 a.m. in the Luecht Conference Center in Building B at the college.

Each attendee will receive the 2017 Resource Directory.

To register or for information, visit www.mchenry.edu/peopleinneed or call Thomas at 815-479-7792.

“It’s right at the corner of Route 14 in the village of Cary, and it’s going to be such an important building in our downtown,” Rife said. “When people come and pass through the village of Cary, that’s going to be one of the first things they see.”

Martial arts academy looking to open on Route 47

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com HUNTLEY – A martial arts academy is set to open in a vacant space on Route 47 in Huntley.

Tiger Koo’s Martial Arts Academy, which has locations in Algonquin and Hoffman Estates, is asking for a special-use permit to operate at 9734 Route 47, Huntley.

At the Huntley Committee of the Whole meeting Thursday, trustees agreed to put the item on the consent agenda for the next Village Board meeting.

The academy teaches students ages 4 to 75 years old self-defense and martial arts training.

“I really love teaching kids,” owner Jong Sub Koo said at Thursday’s meeting.

Aside from teaching the physical aspects of earning a black belt, Koo, a seventh-degree black belt, said he also emphasizes principles such as respect and discipline.

“He expects his martial arts students to be leaders in the community, and not just have excellent behavior in the training facility,” said Amy Ober, office manager at the Algonquin facility.

Tiger Koo’s also focuses on staying involved in the community and giving back, Koo and Ober said.

The academy participates in performances in local schools and parades, and has hosted fundraising

was eighth-grader Tyler Bredemeier.

“I think engineering is a field I could get into,” Bredemeier said.

“It just seems like a fun thing to do, and there are a lot of interesting careers.”

Although Bredemeier’s group didn’t succeed in the challenge, he said he understood his team’s errors and knew how to correct them.

“This program is great for showing young kids what engineering really is,” said Mary Warren, an eighthgrade science teacher at Hannah Beardsley. “It helps us fill a need in the country to develop more problem solvers for the future.”

Warren said that there’s an increasing number of engineering jobs becoming available that need qualified applicants.

“Seven years ago, when the program started, it was very successful, so we wanted to keep it going and build on it,” Warren said.

“We wanted to challenge our kids to think outside the box in math and

science, and the program has been doing that.”

Representatives from local businesses, McHenry County College and Crystal Lake-based Community High School District 155 also visited the students during the program to talk about engineering careers. One of the presentations was about District 155’s Project Lead the Way, which aims to promote engineering by introducing high school students to engineering courses with the goal of earning firstyear engineering college credit.

“I took Project Lead the Way myself at Prairie Ridge,” Klepitsch said. “I really enjoyed those classes and knew I wanted to do engineering as a career at that point.”

Science teacher Jennifer Drozt said Discover Engineering Week and Project Lead the Way are great programs because they help students learn about engineering at an early age.

“If we can get more kids interested in engineering, then it benefits everyone,” said Drozt, who was an engineer for 17 years before becoming a teacher.

“More schools should start promoting this career choice before the students even get to high school.”

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Consider what you have

been doing and what you want to do in the future.

Check out the online job market, spruce up your resume and set the stage for a brighter future.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Let your charm lead the way. You’ll be able to negotiate a deal or talk someone into seeing things your way if you are diplomatic. A financial gain looks promising.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Be careful not to make an unrealistic promise. Live within your means and only take on what you know you can handle and complete. A day trip will lead to the access of privileged information.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Get in touch with someone from your past or attend an event that is a reminder of how you were raised or where you come from. Tradition will lead to strength,

courage and success.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Don’t get wrapped up in the moment and make unrealistic promises that will result in disappointment and criticism.

Use your intuitive intelligence to find reasonable and workable solutions.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Socialize, go on an excursion or make plans with someone who enjoys the same things you do. A pet, youngster or elder in your life will brighten your day.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Be careful how you handle domestic situations. You’ll face opposition if you are too intent on getting your way.

Compromise or offer an incentive. Romance is encouraged.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Express what you want

to see happen. An emotional plea will help you bring about change, but could also leave you in a precarious position. Balance will be necessary.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – If you get involved in a physical challenge, you’ll find out exactly where you stand and what you have to do in order to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Romance is featured.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Personal secrets are best kept that way. Don’t trust someone with information that could be incriminating. Make adjustments at home that will lower your overhead and ease your stress.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Don’t be too eager to let others know what you are up to. Using the element of surprise will be in your favor when it comes to gaining support.

Crowds turn out for women’s marches The ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO – Dorothy DeCarlo burned her bra during college 50 years ago to fight for women’s rights. As she stood among a sea of people gathered for a women’s rally and march in downtown Chicago on Saturday, she carried a sign that stated: “I can’t believe I still have to protest this [expletive].”

“I thought we took the bruises. I thought it was over,” said DeCarlo, 69, of Chicago. “I never thought we would be in 2017 and even have to consider this.”

Chicago’s event was one of hundreds across Illinois and the U.S. aimed at sending a message to President Donald Trump that women will push back against policies or positions that violate their rights.

In Rockford, more than 1,000 men, women and children marched downtown, the Rockford Register Star reported. Many carried signs and chanted “Love trumps hate.”

U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin helped rally a crowd outside the Old State Capitol in Springfield, urging them to get involved.

The Southern Illinois Women’s March drew nearly 1,000 people, some sporting hot pink hats, for a roughly 1-mile walk that started at the Carbon-

Illinois Supreme Court strikes down Chicago rental car tax

CHICAGO – The Illinois Supreme Court said Chicago can’t force companies to slap a tax on residents who rent cars in the suburbs.

The court said there could be “serious problems” if other cities had the same policy.

Chicago levied a 9 percent tax at car rental companies within 3 miles of the city limits.

The Chicago Tribune said the city assumed that a Chicago resident was using the rental car more than half the time in the city.

Enterprise and Hertz filed a lawsuit.

A Cook County judge struck down the tax, but an appellate court reversed the decision.

Carmalita Cahill, one of the chant leaders of the march, told The Southern Illinoisan she was taking a page from a lesson she taught her children.

“Don’t complain about something unless you are willing to do something to change it,” Cahill said. She added that while events like Saturday’s march are important, the goal is to harness people’s energy and “put it toward what we need to do here.”

The state Supreme Court overturned that ruling Friday.

Chicago defended the tax, saying residents who rent cars nearby should pay a tax for city services.

Illinois State Police warning people about a phone scam

CHICAGO – Illinois State Police are warning Illinois residents about a phone scam that is happening around the state.

In a news release, the agency said people have been reporting to troopers that they have been receiving phone calls in which a voice on a recording tells them that they are under criminal investigation and that they should send $600.

The calls appear to be a state police phone number.

The state police statement said people are deceived because the number has been doctored to make it appear it is a legitimate state police phone number by a practice called “ID spoofing.”

The agency is reminding people that it never solicits money on the phone.

In Chicago, the more than 300-acre Grant Park filled to capacity, with so many people spilling onto surrounding blocks for a pre-march rally that organizers canceled the march for safety reasons. But people flooded the streets after the rally concluded anyway, some unaware the march had been called off.

They moved slowly through the streets, voicing support for women’s and immigrant rights, Black Lives Matter, education and other causes.

Donna Martin, a pastry chef and consultant from Chicago, said she came out because “I wanted to show there are more of us than there are of them.” She carried a sign that said “There’s no sign big enough to list all the reasons I’m here.”

Martin, 42, said the large number of people at the event sent a clear message.

“It means we are powerful,” Martin said. “Everything’s going to be OK.”

2 convicted in shooting that paralyzed basketball coach

CHICAGO – Two men have been convicted of attempted murder and aggravated battery for a shooting that paralyzed a Chicago high school basketball coach who played on one of the teams featured in the 1994 documentary “Hoop Dreams.”

Shawn Harrington was shot twice while shielding his daughter after gunmen opened fire on their car at a traffic stop in the city’s Humboldt Park neighborhood in 2014. Authorities said the attackers mistook the car for another that had been involved in an earlier shooting.

Tandra Simonton, a spokeswoman for prosecutors, said a jury on Friday convicted Cedryk Davis and Deandre Thompson in the attack, which left Harrington paralyzed from the waist down.

Their sentencing is set for Feb. 28.

Harrington is an assistant basketball coach at Marshall. He played for the team when “Hoop Dreams” was being filmed.

Chicago police: Off-duty officer fatally shot robber

CHICAGO – Chicago police said an off-duty suburban police officer shot and killed a man who was trying to rob him.

Police department spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said the shooting happened early Friday in the West Pullman neighborhood on the city’s South Side. Police said it appears the off-duty Robbins police officer fatally shot the man after the alleged robber pulled a gun and took the officer’s keys.

The Cook County medical examiner’s office identified the dead man as 20-year-old Joshua D. Jones. An autopsy is slated for Saturday.

Guglielmi said the robber’s weapon was recovered. Chicago police said they are investigating the possible armed robbery and the Robbins department will handle the investigation of their officer.

The officer wasn’t immediately identified. The Robbins Police Department didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

More than 1M worldwide join city demonstrations

By NANCY BENAC and BEN NUCKOLS

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – In a global exclamation of defiance and solidarity, more than 1 million people rallied at women’s marches in the nation’s capital and cities around the world Saturday to send President Donald Trump an emphatic message on his first full day in office that they won’t let his agenda go unchallenged.

“Welcome to your first day, we will not go away!” marchers in Washington chanted.

Many of the women came wearing pink, pointy-eared “pussyhats” to mock the new president. Plenty of men joined in, too, contributing to surprising numbers everywhere from New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and Los Angeles to Mexico City, Paris, Berlin, London, Prague and Sydney.

The Washington rally alone attracted over 500,000 people according to city officials – apparently more than Trump’s inauguration drew on Friday.

It was easily one of the biggest demonstrations in the city’s history, and as night fell, not a single arrest was reported.

The international outpouring served to underscore the degree to which Trump has unsettled people in both hemispheres.

“We march today for the moral core of this nation, against which our new president is waging a war,” actress America Ferrera told the Washington crowd. “Our dignity, our character, our rights have all been under attack, and a platform of hate and division assumed power yesterday. But the president is not America. ... We are America, and we are here to stay.”

Turnout in the capital was so heavy that the designated march route alongside the National Mall was impassable.

Protesters were told to make their way to the Ellipse near the White House by way of other streets, triggering a chaotic scene that snarled downtown

A crowd of mostly women begins to gather Saturday and sets out to make their voices heard on the first full day of Donald Trump’s presidency in Washington, D.C. Washington. Long after the program had ended, groups of demonstrators were still marching and chanting in different parts of the city.

White House press secretary Sean Spicer had no comment on the march except to note that there were no firm numbers for turnout because the National Park Service no longer provides crowd estimates.

Around the world, women brandished signs with slogans such as “Women won’t back down” and “Less fear more love.” They decried Trump’s stand on such issues as abortion, health care, diversity and climate change. And they branded him a sexist, a bully, a bigot and more.

“We want a leader, not a creepy tweeter,” some marchers chanted in Washington.

In Chicago, organizers canceled the march portion of their event for safety reasons because of an overflow crowd that reached an estimated 250,000. People made their way through the streets on their own anyway. In New York, well over 100,000 marched past Trump’s home at glittering Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue. More than 100,000 also gathered on Boston Common, and a similar number demonstrated in Los Angeles.

In Miami, real estate agent

Regina Vasquez, 51, brought a sign saying “Repeal and Replace Trump.”

“I believe that strength is in the numbers, and that we should all come out and not make Trump the new normal,” she said.

All told, more than 600 “sister marches” were planned worldwide. Crowd estimates from police and organizers around the globe added up to well over a million.

“I feel very optimistic even though it’s a miserable moment,” said Madeline Schwartzman of New York City, who brought her twin 13-year-old daughters to the Washington rally. “I feel power.”

Retired teacher Linda Lastella, 69, who came to Washington from Metuchen, New Jersey, said she had never marched before but felt the need to speak out when “many nations are experiencing this same kind of pullback and hateful, hateful attitudes.”

“It just seemed like we needed to make a very firm stand of where we were,” she said.

As the demonstrators rallied alongside the National Mall, Trump opened his first full day as president by attending a prayer service at the Washington National Cathedral, a tradition for the day after inauguration, and later visited the CIA.

Mississippi tornado wreaks havoc, kills 4

By JEFF AMY and REBECCA SANTANA The Associated Press

HATTIESBURG, Miss. – Rain was pouring down in the pre-dawn darkness, and the wind was picking up as Darryl McMorris ran for his daughters’ bedroom. The windows started blowing out as he dove on top of his girls, grabbing one under each arm as he tried to protect them.

“As soon as I did that, it seemed like we were flying in the air,” he recalled Saturday.

Walls began to collapse and the house began to blow apart as his daughters screamed. But he held on tight.

When the tornado finished ripping its way through their Hattiesburg home, he and the two girls were under a wall.

Their house appears to be a total loss, bedding tossed 50 feet into a tree and their oldest daughter asking, “Is God mad at us?” But they’re alive.

“I don’t see how we survived this,” said his fiancée, Shanise.

Across the tornado’s devastating path, families were taking stock of the damage, hugging friends and neighbors, grieving over the remains of their homes and in many cases mourning those killed.

Authorities said four people died

Shanise McMorris grieves Saturday on the slab of her Hattiesburg, Miss., home after an early tornado hit the city. She, her husband or their two children were not injured when the roof collapsed on them. The tornado was part of a wall of stormy weather traveling across the region, bringing with it rain and unstable conditions. when the twister touched down around 3:35 a.m. Saturday. Shannon Hefferan, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, says damage reports indicate it touched down in Lamar County before ripping into Forrest County and skirting just south of downtown Hattiesburg – the state’s fourth-largest city.

The tornado continued across the Leaf River into neighboring Petal.

Emergency management officials said the severe weather also damaged Perry and Jones counties.

Teams are out assessing the damage.

Already they know that the tornado was accompanied by a deluge of rain –

3.42 inches over a six- to seven-hour period Saturday morning – Hefferan said.

And the bad weather isn’t over yet.

The weather service anticipated another round Saturday night. A tornado watch was in effect until 9 p.m. in parts of southeastern Louisiana and southern Mississippi, warning that hail, gusting winds and tornadoes are possible.

Forrest County Coroner Butch Benedict on Saturday afternoon released the names of the dead: Earnest Perkins, 58; Cleveland Madison, 20; David Wayne McCoy, 47; and Simona Cox, 72.

Monica McCarty lost her father – Perkins – who died in the same trailer park where she and her boyfriend live and her son – Madison – who was apparently crushed to death while in bed at her mother’s house where he lived.

Standing amid the tornado’s carnage, McCarty wept as her boyfriend, Tackeem Molley, comforted her.

“They couldn’t get him out of the house. They said he was lying in the bed,” McCarty said of her son.

Molley said he and McCarty were in a trailer when the storm hit. Molley, whose bare foot was bandaged, said he climbed out through a hole in what had either been the trailer’s roof or wall.

“I had a little hole I could squeeze out of,” he said.

Those who registered themselves at courthouses run by rebels had documents that the Syrian government does not recognize. the first time in more than four years.

JIBREEN, Syria – Fatima Museitif got married three years ago and soon gave birth to two boys. Her husband died last year but since she was living in a rebel-held eastern neighborhood of Aleppo, she couldn’t obtain a marriage certificate, a death certificate for her husband or birth certificates for her children.

Now the 22-year-old is waiting for those documents as a Syrian nongovernmental organization and the U.N. refugee agency, UNHCR, have set up an office at a shelter for displaced people just south of Aleppo so the displaced can finally obtain official government certificates or new identity cards.

Syrian rebels took control of large parts of east Aleppo in July 2012, and for more than four years residents in rebel-held areas were not able to register themselves because the state had no presence. Those who registered themselves at courthouses or local offices run by the rebels received documents that are not recognized by the Syrian government.

In December, government forces captured all of eastern Aleppo, bringing the city under full state control for

placed people. Many of those who left are, like Museitif, living without official documents – making their movement difficult in a country where security is extremely tight amid a war now in its sixth year.

In Jibreen, scores of men and women gathered outside the Free Legal Support Program that is run by UNHCR and the Syrian Trust for Development – a local NGO that was established by Syria’s first lady Asma Assad to help individuals in need.

The office opens four days a week and is usually packed with people seeking official documents.

Fatima Akkam, a lawyer who works at the office said that since late last year, the Jibreen office has registered some 500 legal cases – mostly new identity cards to replace lost or damaged ones or to register marriages or births.

She said 900 more cases currently are being processed.

In addition to the Jibreen office, there are six offices in Aleppo and nearby villages – raising the number of cases into the thousands.

Whoever seeks a certificate need to bring two witnesses who know and can identify the person. The witnesses get their fingerprints taken and sign the document.

OUR VIEW

Reject huge tax increase The Illinois Senate could vote as early as Wednesday on a budget bill supported by Democrats and even some Republicans, including Senate Republican Leader Christine Radogno.

With lawmakers and Gov. Bruce Rauner unable to come to terms on a full budget the past two fiscal years, some might consider that a good thing.

But then there are the details, which seem to be getting worse by the minute.

The Senate’s initial “compromise” budget proposed a 32 percent increase in the state’s income tax, from 3.75 percent to 4.95 percent. An individual who makes $50,000 annually would pay an additional $625 to the state a year under this proposal.

But new reports from Chicago and Springfield on Friday said an amended proposal would raise the rate to 5.25 percent, a whopping 40 percent increase. An individual who makes $50,000 annually would pay an additional $750 to the state under this proposal.

The latter proposal also would bring the state’s income tax to a higher level than former Gov. Pat Quinn’s 67 percent tax hike in 2011, which moved the rate from 3 percent to 5 percent before it scaled back to the current 3.75 percent in 2015.

The current proposal does not have a provision to scale the increased income tax back.

In addition to the income tax increases, the Senate plan, which ties a series of bills together, calls for a corporate tax increase (from 5.25 percent to 7 percent), an increase in the minimum wage to $11, a two-year property tax freeze and some modest pension and workers’ compensation reforms.

We’ve got to hand it to Senate leaders; they don’t discriminate. Their proposal is equally bad for middle class wage earners and business owners.

“The Senate budget proposal is an absolute disaster,” Rep. David McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills, said. “Raising the income tax rate by 32 percent, or even up to 40 percent, would crush taxpayers.

“We need to cut spending, not raises taxes. This would be the final nail in the coffin of the state of Illinois. ... We lost 115,000 people [to outmigration] last year. This will drive even more people out of the state. ...”

We urge state senators, including Sen. Pam Althoff, R-McHenry, and Sen. Karen McConnaughay, R-St. Charles, to reject this plan.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

How to respond to President Trump Now that Donald Trump has been sworn into office as the 45th president of the United States, his toughest critics and strongest supporters alike need to take a deep breath and consider where they want to go from here.

The critics are correct that Trump possesses troubling characteristics for a president. But the shortsighted response some have chosen – boycotting the inauguration and declaring him an “illegitimate” president – only weaken the foundation of democracy: the peaceful transition of power. That could have disastrous consequences down the road.

Regardless of Russian hacking, Trump won more electoral votes than Hillary Clinton in an election that was not corrupted by voter fraud. His victory was legitimate, and those who deny it – including American heroes such as Rep. John Lewis, D-Georgia – are the mirror image of the birthers who tried to delegitimize President Barack Obama.

Similarly, many Democrats who criticized Republicans for

blocking President Obama at every turn are now vowing to adopt the same approach with Trump. While turnabout is fair play, Democrats will only hurt the country, and their own cause, by refusing to cooperate with Trump on issues where common ground is possible, including infrastructure, the earned income tax credit, child care and veterans’ health care. Protest and obstruction can be a useful part of a political strategy, but it should not be the primary one.

Trump’s supporters would do well to pause, too. For instance, many Republicans in Congress are rushing headlong into a halfbaked agenda, starting with a quickie repeal of the Affordable Care Act. Some, like Sens. Bob Corker and Rand Paul, have opposed repealing the law without having a replacement at the ready. More should join them.

Republicans also have expressed too little concern over Trump’s conflicts of interest, which have the potential to be a major distraction for the new

president – or worse. The debate over whether Trump is violating the emoluments clause of the Constitution almost certainly will lead to a legal challenge. Calls for impeachment won’t be far behind.

To avoid this, leaders in both parties should join together in pressing Trump to separate himself from his private interests.

There’s a wider lesson, one applicable to all: Trump probably will continue to manufacture more political drama than is healthy for any republic. Rather than getting swept up in it, Americans – and the world – should view it with a discerning eye. The first step is to separate social media musings from actual policy, and to judge the administration more by its actions than its words.

The days ahead doubtless will test the patience of many Americans. But national unity must not be sacrificed by shortsighted political considerations. If inauguration day holds one truth, it’s this: The U.S. is more durable than any one president.

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.

Bloomberg View

VIEWS Philip Kennicott state and federal partners to build stronger and more resilient communities across the country.

Never mind the role the NEH has played in the creation of documentaries and the education and enrichment of teachers who might not otherwise have a chance to escape the grinding cycle of teaching to the tests, which never stop coming. Never mind the Corporation for Public Broadcasting creates the best and most enriching programming for children that is widely available without cost to the poor and the isolated.

No one knows what Trump will do until he actually does it, so perhaps someone will get his ear and deflect support for these cuts – so minimal in real dollar terms, so significant in symbolic impact. But let’s assume they’re coming. What do they tell us?

In the current political age, symbolic victories often are more satisfying than real policy change. Of course, eliminating these items from the federal budget won’t make a dent in the accumulated deficit. But it will appease a vocal constituency, who will see it as a sign of strength and determination.

In the age of social media, digital rancor and corrosive suspicion of anything outside one’s personal

philosophical comfort zone, winning a skirmish against the enemy feels better than witnessing incremental improvement toward actually fixing our problems. You will learn more about the larger economic forces that have led to the decline of manufacturing and the demoralization of blue-collar communities on PBS than you will haphazardly scarfing angry headlines on the internet; but it feels so much better to attack PBS than pay attention to its content.

The loss of the NEA is mostly about symbolism. But along with the loss of the NEH and privatization of the CPB, these proposed budget cuts are part of a nascent but ominous larger movement to eliminate the last vestiges of a public realm free of the dictates of the market. Privatizing the social safety net and shifting tax dollars away from public schools are essential moves in a longer war on a social contract that preserves faith in the public realm. Academia is another target and is in the cross hairs as well.

The public realm – as opposed to commercial entertainment, including politics as currently practiced – produces ideas, information and emotional states that can’t be predicted, or controlled. It fosters the research that challenges venerable assumptions about the world; it generates the data that can point to the failings and blindness of people in power, and the often invisible frailty of our world; and it offers us ideas about the

well-lived and ethical life that can’t be contained within the market’s understanding that winning is everything and consumption is paradise. It also creates webs of dependency and connection, on each other, on books, on art, on knowledge, that are, paradoxically, the well springs of genuine freedom.

Will anyone notice once these things are gone? Will it matter to artists that the NEA, which hasn’t given direct grants to artists in decades, is finally eliminated? There likely will be other changes to the social fabric that generate even more anxiety and genuine suffering in the coming months and years. Even some in the arts world will yawn about the NEA: It was bound to happen, why fight a losing battle?

If these things are, in fact, on the chopping block, and if Congress follows through, their loss likely will be remembered as a significant moment in a larger cultural shift. The arts are an easy target, especially in this country, which has never had an easy relationship with the impractical, the elegant, the counter-intuitive and the unruly. But it is the easy targets that get targeted first.

And so the first tea leaves come in. No one can claim the future isn’t getting more and more clear, and ever more worrisome.

IT’S YOUR WRITE Taxation without representation

To the Editor: What do you get when our do-nothing U.S. Congress has been in charge for the past eight years? You get Donald J. Trump. Are you happy now?

What do you get when the Illinois House of Representatives re-elects Mike Madigan? Not much. But we all do get a bonus – new taxes and most likely higher property taxes. Not much has been done by our politicians in the past couple of years. I call it taxation without representation.

Board blindsides Dr. Yensen To the Editor:

Dr. Paula Yensen, one of the most qualified of the new County Board members, was blindsided at the first voting meeting of the board. As the most qualified of the members in the Health and Community Services Committee, she was chosen unanimously by the committee to be chair. Not only does her Ph.D. have to do with family and community health, but she has work experience in this county dealing with these issues.

Committees choose their chairs requiring a rubber stamp vote from the whole board.

Not this time. Clearly planned, a motion put member Chuck Wheeler’s name up as chair. He is an insurance salesman.

The board voted, 14-9, for Wheeler. The board did not listen to the committee’s choice.

HOW TO SOUND OFF We welcome original letters on public issues. Letters must include the author’s full name, home address and day and evening telephone numbers.

We limit letters to 250 words and one published letter every 30 days. All letters are subject to editing for length and clarity at the sole discretion of the

So why would a group of county officials welcome a new member that way? At the very least, it was incredibly rude. I was hoping for better with this new board.

As a District 6 voter, I was disappointed with Larry Smith, one of our representatives who voted against Dr. Yensen’s

editor.

being chair. Mr. Smith, apparently voting with your friends is more important than choosing what’s best for your District 6 constituents. Our other representatives voted for Dr. Yensen.

For months now the debate in the arts world has been: Will he really do it? Will Donald Trump be the president who finally gives the right wing what it so vehemently has craved for decades, the elimination of the National Endowment for the Arts?

A report in The Hill suggests pessimists, who assumed the worst once it became clear Trump’s election likely would empower organizations such as the conservative Heritage Foundation, were right. He may indeed try to kill it.

And the National Endowment for the Humanities, as well as cutting the federal appropriation for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The animus against these organizations has been so powerful for so long that defending them feels almost pro forma, a reflexive rhetorical blast into the headwinds of an anti-arts bias so deep there’s little hope of changing anyone’s mind (“The NEA is welfare for cultural elitists,” declares the Heritage Foundation, sententiously).

Never mind the old arguments, still valid and cogent, but somehow threadbare from long use in what many people long and fatalistically have assumed is a losing battle.

Despite the culture war clashes about art some considered obscene more than a generation ago, the NEA has evolved into an organization that operates and has impact in every state, that has served returning veterans, bolstered state arts agencies and worked with all manner of groups and

BUSINESS Fabrik Industries completes expansion in McHenry NORTHWEST HERALD Fabrik Industries, a 35-year-old McHenry County company, has completed its expansion in the city of McHenry with the purchase of a second facility at Miller Parkway.

The facility is now operational, according to a news release from the McHenry County Economic Development Corp.

Fabrik hosted a celebration and tour of the new facility Thursday for representatives from the state of Illinois, city of McHenry, McHenry County Board, McHenry County Economic Development Corporation, McHenry School District 156, McHenry Township Fire Protection District, McHenry County College and businesses who helped in the facilities transformation.

“We are excited about the opportunities in manufacturing locally,” Keith Wagner, president of Fabrik Industries, said in the news release.

“The community’s involvement in our growth has been humbling. The company took 2016 to breathe new life into a vacant building, updat-

ing and installing new lighting and paint, investing in new molding machines and training of new employees to meet the increased manufacturing demand.”

In 2015, Fabrik’s leadership identified the need to expand operations based on continued increase in its manufacturing business.

The company analyzed expansion opportunities both outside of Keith Illinois and in Illinois, Wagner specifically McHenry.

As the company began researching expansion opportunities, the collaboration between the state, McHenry, McHenry County and the McHenry County Economic Development Corp. and other partners proved to make the difference in their decision.

“One of the pillars of economic development is retention, because 80 percent of net new job growth comes from existing businesses,” Pam Cumpata, president of McHenry County Economic Development

Corp., said in the news release. “The expansion of Fabrik Industries is an excellent example of why MCEDC works closely with our primary businesses, our county and municipal partners with the shared goal of retaining our business base.”

Cumpata credited McHenry Mayor Sue Low, McHenry Director of Economic Development Doug Martin and other city staff with working with Fabrik and the MCEDC to make the expansion possible.

“The amazing work the people at Fabrik Molded Plastics are doing every day is a perfect example of what we can achieve here in McHenry County, and we should be doing everything we can to help them grow,” McHenry County Board Chairman Jack Franks said. “Reducing the property tax burden employers bear and creating conditions that will make more job creators want to set up shop here must be our primary focus as a board.”

Fabrik is a third-generation custom injection molding manufacturer of thermoplastics. Its components are used globally in automotive

lighting and switches as well as in medical, consumer and electronic goods.

Recognizing the rapid pace at which innovation and automation is occurring in manufacturing, Fabrik developed an internship program for high school and college students to ensure a workforce for the future, the news release said. The company also participates in the Youth Manufacturing Program through the McHenry County Workforce Network.

The goal of program is to expose individuals between 18 to 24 to manufacturing through six-week internships that could result in full employment.

Participants rotate through the entire company so that when the student is offered a job, he or she understands expectations for full-time employment.

Fabrik also has worked closely with McHenry County high schools in the development of their industrial arts programs and providing assistance in development of curriculum.

With friends and business, to be unclear is to be unkind Dear Dave: My friend and I are roommates, and we’ve always had an agreement that we split each of the bills fifty-fifty. We both work and have decent jobs, but for the last couple of months she’s been really late in paying her half of the bills. She says she’s broke. I don’t want to be mean, but how can I approach her about this situation? – Alice Dear Alice: I understand that you don’t want to be mean to a friend, but situations like this should be addressed quickly and directly. No matter whether you’re talking about friendships or business dealings, to be unclear is to be unkind.

Turn off the television, sit down with her, and have a kind but firm conversation. Let her know that the roommate agreement is no longer working because she isn’t paying her bills on time. Make sure she understands that the two of you are not

DAVE SAYS Dave Ramsey going to be able to stay there together anymore unless she starts paying on time. You might also ask if she needs help budgeting her money. I mean, if she’s got a good job her money has to be going somewhere, right? The problem is that it’s not going to the proper places.

I know you think that by being subtle or avoiding the situation you’re being nice, but you’re not. You’re being passive-aggressive. You just have to smile and say, “This isn’t going to happen anymore. You’re going to get your act together, and I’ll help you all I can, but you need to start paying on time or the roommate situation is over.”

Is that tough love? No, it’s just love.

Dear Dave: My wife and I owe

$90,000 on our mortgage, and we have no other debt. We are able to save about $20,000 a year, so we could have the house paid off in just over four years. She likes the idea of having lots of money saved up, but I would love to be completely debt-free. Should we pay off the house or hang on to the savings? – Jason Dear Jason: Let’s pretend your house is already paid for in full.

Would you borrow on your home so that you had enough cash that your wife liked it? You say you wouldn’t, so what’s the difference? If you had a paid-for house and you wouldn’t borrow on it to have cash laying around to feel better, why wouldn’t you use the cash laying around to pay off the house? It’s the same thing.

The first thing you want to consider is having an emergency fund of

1.75% APY

three to six months of expenses. You also need to make sure you’re putting aside 15 percent of your income for retirement. Other than that, if you have enough cash laying around to pay off your home and you don’t, it’s the same thing as having borrowed on your home in order to have cash laying around.

If I’m in your shoes, as soon as the emergency fund is in place – six months of expenses since your wife likes the security factor – and 15 percent is being put away for retirement, I’d take the other money and throw it at the house. Get that thing paid off as fast as you can!

Parent drafted into adoption stops short of forming a bond Dear Abby: After planning to not have children, my partner and I had to adopt one of his family members.

Long story short, it was us or an unsafe situation.

I have never in my life had an interest in children or spent any time with them. After a few years, I still have no interest in parenting. I work long hours, so my partner does most of it, but he is better at it, so it makes sense.

I ensure the child’s needs are met.

I organize events, take him to point A or B, but have no interest in bonding or spending time with him – no desire to form a connection, which I feel some guilt about. Deep down, I resent having been forced to take on a responsibility I never wanted in the first place. Is it good enough to provide a safe, stable home with

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips opportunities for a child, but not to love or form a special connection with him? – Reluctant Parent In

Texas Dear Reluctant: In your case, it

appears it’s going to have to be. We don’t have to love everyone, but we do have to treat them well, which you have done to the best of your ability. But recognize if you truly are unable to form an emotional bond with the child, his only attachment will be to your partner. And because of all the effort you have put into raising him, it’s rather sad – for you.

Dear Abby: I noticed a picture of a

young boy on Facebook. He appeared to be about 4 or 5. He was holding a sign stating if he received 20,000 “likes,” his father would quit smoking. My immediate reaction was, “Isn’t the fact your son loves you enough to make you be healthy?”

I question the values we are teaching our young children. In a world where the trend is to conform and gather likes, how much value should we allow our children to place on the opinions of others? Should our self-esteem and actions be based this heavily on being “liked” by strangers or peers? I’m an old-fashioned gal who believes in family ties and the strength a person develops by acting independently. – Believes In Family

ple – depend upon the affirmation of others. The internet provides a quick and easy way for folks to bring attention to themselves or to a cause they believe in. Whether this phenomenon is healthy, I cannot say – but of this I am certain: It’s here to stay.

I agree with you for his health and for the sake of his child, the father should quit smoking without being bribed with computer clicks.

Between you and me, I suspect it was something the boy’s mother dreamed up. Perhaps I’m suffering from “cuteness fatigue.”

But if you believe a child thought that gambit up on his own, I have a bridge in Brooklyn I’d like to sell you.

ALGONQUIN – Huntley girls basketball coach Steve Raethz can’t tell you when – if ever – one of his teams failed to score a point in the first quarter.

On Saturday, Huntley did just that, but it was how his players responded to a sluggish start that had the 18th-year Red Raiders coach smiling and proud after the team’s game against Jacobs.

Huntley erased its bad start with 15 points in the second quarter, taking a five-point lead into the break and coming out with a 39-30 Fox Valley Conference win over Jacobs at the Eagles’ Nest.

The Raiders (12-9 overall, 7-2 FVC) broke out of their scoring slump with a pair of free throws from freshman forward Janelle Allen at the 7:25 mark of the second quarter. They went on to score 10 straight points, taking a 10-5 lead with 3:13 left in the half, and a 1510 lead at half.

“I was really happy with how our kids responded,” Raethz said. “Jacobs really came out and was really active in their zone. We had some looks and had some open shots; we just couldn’t knock shots down. We were a little bit stagnant offensively.”

Things turned around for the Raiders on the defensive side, Raethz said, with a tip by Allen that led to quick points and gave the team momentum.

Huntley outscored Jacobs, 31-13, between the second and third quarters.

“Our kids did a great job of making some rotations and making some traps, getting deflections,” he said. “It really took them (Jacobs) out of some things that they wanted to do offensively.”

Jacobs finished with 20 turnovers to Huntley’s 18.

Morgan Clausen led the team with 14 points and 12 rebounds, Missy Moffett added six points, Allen had five points and six rebounds, and Abbey Brown and Grace Gajewski each had four points.

Brown’s 3 with 1:35 left in the third gave Huntley its biggest lead of the game, 29-14.

“It was definitely frustrating, ending a quarter with no points,” said Clausen, a Brown commit. “But then in the second quarter, we got 15. I think we realized we had to push it and actually bring it.

“We had to start attacking the basket more and start driving more to draw

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

Huntley coach Steve Raethz inadvertently took away three points from the Raiders when he called a timeout just as Grace Gajewski swished a 3 at the start of the fourth. “What are you going to do?” Raethz joked after. the defense in to get some easier shots.”

Grabbing the road win was important for the Raiders, who lead the FVC and are followed closely by Hampshire (8-3 FVC), among some others. Huntley

has a challenging week of games ahead against Crystal Lake South, CaryGrove and Dundee-Crown.

Jacobs, which also lost to Huntley, 42-30, on Dec. 2, fell to 8-11 overall and 5-5 in the FVC. “I told Steve (Raethz) before the game, his kids are defending the way that his teams have in the past,” Jacobs coach Joe Benoit said. “Their kids are playing at a high level right now. They did a nice job of taking us out of our stuff.

“Right now, we’re looking for 32 minutes. We’ve had a lot of games where we’ve played well for 24 minutes, but then those droughts we go on where we don’t score, they bury us.”

After Brown’s 3 put the Raiders up by 15, Jacobs made a mini run and cut the lead to seven points after a 3-pointer by Elizabeth Schwartz and a bucket

by Kyra Cabusao.

Carly Sidor led Jacobs with seven points and five rebounds, Schwartz added two 3s for six points, Cabusao had five points, and Maggie Grady had four points and six rebounds.

Unranked Naperville North knocked off No. 2 Evanston, 65-63, in overtime of the third game. In the finale, Willowbrook, which is receiving votes in 4A, defeated Glenbard East, 48-33.

By halftime, Jacobs led 33-19 and Krutwig had 14 points.

“We’re a defensive team,” Balkcom said. “We just stood up a little bit. We were bigger and stronger than them and we had to act that way. We got Cam the ball inside, and that really helped us in that big stretch.”

Guard Ryan Phillips scored most of his team-high 19 points in transition. Balkcom hit two 3-pointers and finished with 10 points. The Eagles’ defensive focus was on slowing down Hawks point guard Marcus Garrett, with Balkcom and backup Ajani Rodriguez taking turns.

“We played how we are capable of playing,” Roberts said. “That’s kind of how I thought the game could go, but to come out and do it is another thing. We passed and caught pretty well and were in control of things. Our staple is defending; we did a great job defending.”

Roberts wanted to limit the Hawks’ drives to the basket and force them to shoot outside more. When they missed, Krutwig often grabbed the ball and the Eagles were off. “[Krutwig] is tough underneath,” Hawks coach Don Houston said. “He’s great at keeping the ball high. He’s just as good a passer with the outlet. We’ve seen size, but we haven’t seen that size and skill. He’s a combination of both.”

Jalen Hughes led Hillcrest with 19 points, while Garrett and Robert Harvey each scored 13.

LOMBARD – Jacobs’ players appreciate the passing ability their 6-foot-9 center, Cameron Krutwig, possesses.

If they get open, Krutwig will find them … no matter how far away they are.

Normally, that means Krutwig drawing a crowd inside and whipping passes to teammates spotted up behind the 3-point arc. Krutwig did even better than that, cleaning the glass and launching outlet passes for one easy basket after another as the Golden Eagles defeated Hillcrest, 67-55, in the opening game of four Saturday at Glenbard East’s When Sides Collide Shootout.

“Those are things we work on in practice, finding gaps,” said Krutwig, who finished with 16 points, a school-record 23 rebounds and seven assists. “I’m going to throw them and they’re going to catch them. It’s an easy source of offense.”

Jacobs (16-1) knew the Hawks (13-6) usually sent all five players to the offensive glass. Even after rebounds, Eagles coach Jimmy Roberts cautioned his players Hillcrest would be aggressive and try for steals, which also left it susceptible to long passes.

“Some of the passes he throws are so unbelievably awesome,” Jacobs guard Nik Balkcom said. “When you have him down there getting the rebound you can leak out a little bit. Cam will see it and throw it down. It’s really nice.”

Krutwig had two assists on outlet passes and also led a fast break for another assist.

“He’s been doing it so long,” Roberts said. “Those plays are so big because defensively we’re really sound and solid, and the other team has to work so hard to get a shot off, and – boom! – we score in three seconds. Those are debilitating, back-breaking (plays) for our opponents.”

It all starts with the defense, and Jacobs had plenty of that as well Saturday. The Hawks hit some early shots and had a 10-6 lead, but the Eagles kept them scoreless for 8:20 while putting together a 17-0 run and taking control.

4 BULLS 102, KINGS 99

Bulls bounce back against Kings

By JASON LANGENDORF

BULLS 102, KINGS 99

For the Sun-Times

CHICAGO – It’s a question for the ages: Does Fred Hoiberg get angry?

He’s had good reason, no doubt.

The Bulls coach could have steamed after Tuesday’s clunker of a home loss to lowly Dallas. He might have gone nuclear after Friday’s no-show in Atlanta.

But Hoiberg is a man whose chill level, at least publicly, goes to 11– and then holds steady. He is the anti-Bobby Knight. You want a meltdown out of this guy? Good luck getting a raised eyebrow.

So when asked before Saturday’s home game against Sacramento whether he ever loses it when his team goes off the rails, Hoiberg answered with his trademark fire and brimstone: “Yeah,” he said quietly. “Sure.”

OK. Ever torn up the locker room at halftime, maybe busted up a chair?

“I don’t know if I broke a chair.

Chairs are hard to break,” Hoiberg quipped. “I’ve thrown a chair.”

Fiery Fred – assuming he actually exists – was nowhere to be found after the Bulls’ 102-99 win over the Kings.

When Robin Lopez tipped in a desperation scoop by Jimmy Butler to tie the score at 99 in the closing minute, then Dwyane Wade’s free throw and steal on Sacramento’s last possession sealed it for the Bulls (22-23), there was too much to be pleased with.

The effort against the Kings (16-27), especially late, was downright inspired compared to Friday’s sleepwalk through

SACRAMENTO (99) Cousins 16-28 8-9 42, Koufos 3-4 1-1 7, Collison 4-11 0-0 8, Temple 3-9 1-2 8, Afflalo 3-9 0-0 9, Barnes 1-4 0-0 3, Tolliver 2-7 0-0 6, Cauley-Stein 2-3 1-2 5, Lawson 2-7 4-5 8, Richardson 1-2 1-2 3. Totals 37-84 16-21 99.

CHICAGO (102) Gibson 3-9 1-2 7, Lopez 4-8 1-2 9, Carter-Williams 1-6 0-0 2, Butler 6-14 10-10 23, Wade 9-20 12-15 30, Zipser 4-8 2-2 13, McDermott 1-5 0-0 3, Mirotic 5-11 0-0 11, Felicio 1-2 2-2 4, Rondo 0-0 0-0 0. Totals 34-83 28-33 102.

Bulls guard Dwyane Wade (right) and Kings center Kosta Koufos go for a rebound in the first half Saturday night at the United Center. The Bulls won, 102-99.

Atlanta. If the Hawks loss didn’t set Hoiberg off, perhaps nothing will.

“You have to talk about it, there’s no doubt about it,” he said. “We addressed it. But the great thing about this league, you lay an egg like we did, you get an opportunity to come back and rectify it.”

Of course, it helps when that opportunity comes against the reeling Kings, who now have lost eight of their past nine. Still, the Bulls have had a season-long habit of making mountains out of molehills, and they – like prac-

tically everyone else in the league – found they had no answer for Sacramento’s star, DeMarcus Cousins.

Cousins scored 42 points on 16-of-28 shooting, despite the Bulls packing in the paint and “Boogie” hitting only two of his seven 3-pointers.

“He’s as talented a player as there is in this league, at any position,” Hoiberg said. “He’s so versatile. He can shoot 3s, he can score on the block, he can put it on the ground, he can handle it in transition at almost 7 feet tall. Big, strong

body. He’s a guy you have to mix up coverages and do a good job trying to make him take tough, contested shots.”

Wade led the Bulls with 30 points, and Butler added 23. Paul Zipser set a career high in scoring for the second night in a row (13), and Niko Mirotic chipped in 11.

It was a rare approach by committee for the Bulls, whose search for a consistent thread has been complicated by injuries, illness and the usual struggles of youth.

“I definitely think it’s been a little difficult with the rotations and lineups,” said Denzel Valentine, who had a DNP after helping lead the comeback against Atlanta. “It’s been tough, not only for the players, but the coaches, too. They’ve been put in tough positions to make decisions. But we’ve got our full team back, so, hopefully, we can get on a little roll here before the All-Star break and take it from there.”

Bulls’ backups starting to step forward

By JASON LANGENDORF For the Sun-Times

CHICAGO – Every successful NBA team requires at least one superstar – and typically more. In that sense, the Bulls are in better shape than most.

Jimmy Butler’s selection as an Eastern Conference All-Star starter confirms his superstar status. And Dwyane Wade’s 12 All-Star appearances and three NBA championship rings aren’t simply symbolic. ‘‘Flash” isn’t as flashy as he once was, but even at 35, Wade still has game.

What happens, however, when Butler falls ill or when Wade’s creaky knees need a night off?

And what about those games when one or both just aren’t feeling it?

Well, you get what you had Friday in

Atlanta, where the Bulls (21-23) came undone against a Hawks squad that consistently penetrated the lane, made outside shots and jumped on every loose ball for roughly three quarters.

“Lack of energy,” coach Fred Hoiberg said of the Bulls’ latest DOA effort. “You can’t come out and compete against a team like that on their home court after they had been beaten pretty Denzel handily the game before Valentine and expect to win.”

And yet the Bulls still were in the thick of it after Bobby Portis scored on a pass by Nikola Mirotic to cut the Hawks’ lead to 95-90 with 1:08 left.

Portis and Mirotic, plus a handful of other oft-maligned reserves, provided

a lift and nearly erased a cringe-worthy 34-point deficit on their own – all while Butler and Wade watched from the sideline.

“Our bench group showed what can happen by competing and playing together and playing the right way,” Hoiberg said. “They got us back in the game and gave us a chance to win at the end.”

Let’s not kid ourselves: The Bulls need Butler. They need Wade. Recent games without Butler, who sat out losses to the Wizards and Knicks, made that painfully obvious. Points are hard to come by when Wade is feeling his age and the offense becomes Jimmy Time, all the time.

But that only underscores the need for contributions from the bench. And the Bulls’ reserves are beginning to re-

spond.

In the past week alone, the Bulls have gotten career- or season-high scoring efforts from Doug McDermott (31), Denzel Valentine (19), Cristiano Felicio (13) and Paul Zipser (13).

Valentine, who had eight points (including two 3-pointers), three steals and two blocks against Atlanta to help spark the late push, isn’t buying into the Butler, Wade and the Other Guys narrative.

“They have a lot to do, but we’re all good players,” Valentine said. “So, yeah, they have a big load. They’re our best players. But us, as backups, we feel like we can play and bring intangibles to the game. We just try to come in and play with an edge.”

Still teetering between a playoff spot and a finish in the draft lottery, the Bulls will take any edge they can get.

NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME: PACKERS AT FALCONS, 2:05 P.M. SUNDAY, FOX

AFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME: STEELERS AT PATRIOTS, 5:40 P.M. SUNDAY, CBS

Respect abounds as Patriots host Steelers

By KYLE HIGHTOWER The Associated Press

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – There are few things Bill Belichick respects more than history in the NFL. And few teams elicit as much praise from the Patriots coach as the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Part of it is the reverence Belichick holds for the way Steelers founder Art Rooney and his family has operated a franchise that’s remained among the league’s best, winning multiple Super Bowl titles more than 30 years apart. It is a model emulated when Robert Kraft bought the Patriots in 1994 and six years later hired Belichick, who has nurtured a “Patriots Way” that has helped bring four Lombardi trophies to New England.

Those histories will collide when two of the most successful programs of the 2000s meet in Sunday’s AFC Championship Game.

AP photo

Patriots quarterback Tom Brady winds up to throw the ball as backup quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo stretches during practice Thursday in Foxborough, Mass. The Patriots host the Steelers in the AFC Championship Game on Sunday.

“They’ve been tough to deal with going all the way back to coach (Chuck) Noll in the ’70s,” Belichick said. “They were pretty consistently tough to deal with through that entire period of time, which has been all of my years in the league.”

Either New England or

Pittsburgh has been a part of nine of the 17 Super Bowls since 2000, winning six championships between them.

“They have a lot of wins over there,” Patriots receiver Julian Edelman said. “It’s nothing but respect for the Steelers. I went to school in Steelers Country

over in Kent State. Half the school was in a Steelers jersey.

I’ve known about that whole faithful for a while now.”

But for all their individual successes, the teams have met only four times in the playoffs.

The Patriots have won three of those matchups, including the past two in the AFC title games in 2005 and 2002 at Heinz Field.

Both times New England went on the win the Super Bowl.

Pittsburgh quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has been a part of both of the Steelers’ recent championships, but the 34-year-old’s only playoff meeting with the Patriots was the 2005 loss when he was a rookie.

He has spoken often about his respect for the Patriots and Tom Brady, which included him requesting a jersey from Brady before Pittsburgh’s loss to New England in October.

Big Ben missed that game because of knee surgery. This is the latest opportunity to play in “the lion’s den,” he said.

“They are the best in the world,” Roethlisberger said.

“They are the gold standard, if you will. So you want to have that opportunity to go up to play the best.”

Brady is 6-2 in head-to-head matchups with Roethlisberger, but Roethlisberger didn’t play in the Patriots’ Week 7 win in Pittsburgh because he was recovering from surgery on his left knee.

Including the two playoff wins, Brady is 9-2 overall against Pittsburgh, including a 4-0 record at home. Roethlisberger is 3-6 all-time against New England.

History aside, Brady said he is expecting to get the best from Pittsburgh, which started the season 4-5 but has won its past nine. “[Roethlisberger’s] been a leader for that team for a long time and they’ve won a lot of games with him behind the center,” Brady said. “It’s going to be a great game.”

ATLANTA – The NFC Championship Game is quite a mismatch.

Not on the field, mind you.

The Atlanta Falcons are playing as well as they have all season. Ditto for the Green Bay Packers. It should be quite a shootout when they meet Sunday in the Georgia Dome’s final game, with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line.

But when it comes to the tradition and history of the two franchises, the Packers have a decided edge.

It’s a landslide, really.

Lambeau Field. Cheeseheads. Thirteen NFL championships. Four Super Bowl titles. The snow and the tundra.

The green and the gold.

The Falcons?

Hmmm ... give us a minute.

In 51 seasons, they have played in only one Super Bowl and never won a championship. For much of their existence, the Falcons were burdened with cartoonish ownership, laughable draft picks and horrific personnel moves, such as trading away a strong-armed young quarterback in the early 1990s.

Packers (12-6) to eight straight wins.

“As a football historian and someone who’s loved the game since a young age, you realize how special it is to be part of this team, but also know that this team has been around since 1919, and it’s going to be around long after you’re done.”

The Falcons (12-5) don’t have that sort of legacy to fall back on.

But they do have the highest-scoring team in the league, led by MVP candidate Matt Ryan, and a home-field edge that really paid off last week.

The Georgia Dome, which will be torn down after this season and replaced by $1.5 billion Mercedes-Benz Stadium, was as loud as anyone could remember for a divisional-round victory over the Seattle Seahawks. Green Bay’s dramatic upset of the top-seeded Dallas Cowboys ensured one more game would be played at the 70,000-seat AP file photo Packers linebacker Clay Matthews sacks Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan in the second stadium with the big top-like roof.

These Falcons are only looking forhalf on Dec. 8, 2014, in Green Bay, Wis. The defenses surely will be tested when Green ward. They don’t care what happened Bay meets Atlanta in the NFC Championship Game on Sunday in Atlanta. before.

Brett Favre went on to have a pretty ried team.

“The guys who played here in 1999 good career with the Packers.

“It’s like no other place in our aren’t here,” defensive end Dwight Favre’s successor understands the sport,” said Green Bay quarterback Freeney said. “The guys who played in significance of playing with such a sto- Aaron Rodgers, who has guided the Green Bay in 1995 aren’t there.”

8 MEN’S BASKETBALL: BIG TEN ROUNDUP

Morgan’s words motivate Michigan The ASSOCIATED PRESS

ANN ARBOR, Mich. – Michigan wore blue uniforms at home, not its traditional white gear, to fire up its players and send Illinois a message.

It seemed to work.

D.J. Wilson had 19 points, seven rebounds and five assists, leading the Wolverines to a 66-57 win over the Fighting Illini.

“We weren’t the white-collar team today,” Wilson said Saturday.

That was a thinly veiled shot at Illinois center Maverick Morgan, who called the Wolverines a “white-collar team traditionally,” on Jan. 11 after a 16-point win over them.

Even though the comments appeared to make Michigan more motivated to win the rematch, Morgan insisted he didn’t regret what he said.

“It’s how I felt after the first game, and it’s how I still feel about the first game,” Morgan said.

Michigan’s Derrick Walton had 11 of his 13 points in the second half and grabbed a season-high 11 rebounds, and Zak Irvin scored 15 for the Wolverines (13-7, 3-4 Big Ten).

The Fighting Illini (12-8, 2-5) didn’t have a player in double digits until there was 4:23 left, when Malcom Hill made a jumper. Hill finished with 16 points.

Amir Coffey scored 19 points for the

straight game.

No. 21 Purdue 77, Penn St. 52: At West Lafayette, Indiana, Caleb Swanigan had 19 points and 12 rebounds for Purdue.

Indiana 82, Michigan St. 75: At Bloomington, Indiana, James Blackmon Jr. matched his career high with 33 points, and Robert Johnson added 17 to help the Hoosiers hold on for a victory over Michigan State.

Indiana (14-6, 4-3) won for the fourth time in five games, this time without their best defensive player OG Anunoby (knee).

The Spartans (12-8, 4-3) sure didn’t make it easy. They cut a 20-point second-half deficit to four and had a chance to get within three on Harris’ 3-pointer with 32 seconds left.

But Indiana grabbed the rebound and made two free throws to preserve the win.

Rutgers 65, Nebraska 64: At Piscataway, New Jersey, Corey Sanders scored 25 points, including the game-winner with one second left, to lead Rutgers past Nebraska (9-10, 3-4) for first-year coach Steve Pikiell’s first Big Ten win.

Sanders stole a ball that bounced off Nebraska’s Tai Webster’s foot with 12 seconds to play. After a timeout, Sanders drove to the basket, corralled his own rebound and gave Rutgers the lead.

Deshawn Freeman and C.J. Gettys each added 10 points for Rutgers (12-8, 1-6).

BLACKHAWKS

Coach has had to be more teacher than taskmaster

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com

AP photo

Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville talks to his team during the third period of a game against the Hurricanes on Jan. 6 at the United Center. With five or six rookies in the lineup for most of the season, the Hawks coach has had to be more teacher than taskmaster.

Ryan Hartman struggled for the first month after an injury tempered a quick start. Nick Schmaltz finally was sent down to Rockford for six weeks after getting two full months to prove himself. Michal Kempny (hardly a kid at 26, but still a first-year player), was a scratch nine times in a 10-game span in December.

As a result, Kane, Artem Anisimov, Artemi Panarin and Marian Hossa had to carry the bulk of the offense as the kids figured everything out.

But in wins over Colorado and Boston this past week, it’s been the rookies who have done the heavy lifting.

Tanner Kero had two goals and two assists in the two games, setting up both game-winners. Hinostroza had a pair of goals to turn the tide in Colorado. Hartman has been playing top-line

minutes. Schmaltz is back and playing solid two-way hockey. Kempny is becoming a fixture in the lineup.

In the past, those guys might have been shuttling back and forth to Rockford, constantly looking over their shoulder after every misstep, every growing pain. Not this year. Quenneville spent more time teaching, and breaking down the Hawks’ system and their opponents, early in the season.

He’s held more practices than usual, and has added extra optional morning skates to the routine to allow the young players more time to work with assistant coaches.

“He definitely took time at the beginning of the season to do video with us every day and really [help us] improve,” Hinostroza said. “I feel like we’re getting better every practice,

AUSTRALIAN OPEN

Venus Williams reaches Aussie quarterfinals

By JOHN PYE

The Associated Press MELBOURNE, Australia – Venus Williams has returned to the quarterfinals for the ninth time at the Australian Open, where she first made the final eight in her debut in 1998.

The 36-year-old, seven-time major winner had a 6-3, 7-5, fourth-round win Sunday over No. 181-ranked Mona

Barthel, who won three matches in qualifying and then beat two Australian wild cards and Olympic gold medalist Monica Puig in the first three rounds.

Williams next will Venus Williams play No. 24-seeded Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, who beat No. 8 Svetlana Kuznetsova, 6-3, 6-3, in the open-

ing match of Day 7 at Rod Laver Arena.

Pavlyuchenkova’s win over fellow Russian Kuznetsova left Williams as the only Grand Slam winner left in that quarter of the draw.

“I was really challenged to play my best tennis,” Williams said. “It’s wonderful to get through to the quarterfinals against an opponent who’s on fire.”

Williams hasn’t advanced beyond the quarterfinal round at Melbourne Park

since her loss to her younger sister, Serena, in the 2003 final. But she hasn’t lost a set en route to the quarterfinals this year. Against Barthel, she won 90 percent of points when she got her first serve into play, hit 31 winners and four aces while not serving any double-faults.

“This is what you do all the hard work in the offseason for,” she said.

“It’s wonderful to be able to advance even further.”

• Sunday, January 22, 2017

Two decades into his coaching career, and four decades into his professional hockey career, Joel Quenneville didn’t suddenly become a warm and cuddly guy with infinite patience just because there were a bunch of rookies on his team.

He still yells. Still growls. Still glowers. Still can’t stomach losing, or bone-headed plays, or easily corrected mistakes.

But after several years of leading veteran teams while integrating only one or two young players at a time, Quenneville has had to take a different tack this season, when he’s had five or six first-year players in the Blackhawks lineup nearly every night. He’s been as much a teacher as a taskmaster, more patient than prickly.

Labeled – perhaps unfairly – as notoriously trigger-happy with young players, Quenneville has had no choice but to give them a long leash and allow them time to grow, develop and, yes, even learn from their mistakes.

“As a coach, you’re more in the short-term business,” Quenneville said. “(But) you look at the development of the young guys. You keep a progression chart on each guy, and you’re looking at how they’re evolving.”

And it is an evolution, not a revolution. Few players are in the Patrick Kane or Jonathan Toews mold, able to instantly step in and contribute. Vinnie Hinostroza was a healthy scratch nine times in October and November.

every game. It’s still ongoing. We still need to get better, and we’re just really focused on that.”

Of course, Quenneville really didn’t have a choice. The salary cap has left holes in the Hawks lineup, and general manager Stan Bowman has raided the Rockford roster in recent seasons in win-now trades. The IceHogs, AHL powers in recent seasons, are in last place in their division, with most of the Hawks’ premier prospects now an extra step away in either juniors and college.

But that didn’t give the rookies any extra sense of security when the season began. Few foresaw so many getting such an extended chance.

“There were so many young guys fighting for a couple spots,” Hartman said. “You know you just had to play, focus on the little things and be responsible. Don’t get scored on when you’re on the ice. Play good defensively, and that turns into more trust and responsibility. At the end of the day, that gets you more ice time.”

It always has been a myth – or, at the very least, an exaggeration – that Quenneville can’t stand young, inexperienced players. The meteoric rises of players such as Marcus Kruger, Andrew Shaw and Brandon Saad over the years are proof. But this year certainly has been different for Quenneville and the Hawks.

And given how far the rookies have come from October to January, the hope is the patience will really pay off in April, May and June.

“We’ve had some changes of personnel over the years, turnovers after 2010, ’13, ’15,” Quenneville said. “This year was probably as big as any we’ve had. But it doesn’t matter how old, or where they’re from, how big or how small. We have to find a way to make them better and work them into it.

They’re all part of it.”

Canadian Adam Hadwin shoots 13-under 59 in CareerBuilder

LA QUINTA, Calif. – The temperature barely climbed into the 60s on a spectacular, clear afternoon in the desert after two rainy days. Adam Hadwin stopped counting at 59 – 13-under-par 59, that is.

The 29-year-old Canadian shot the ninth sub-60 round in PGA Tour history and the second in 10 days to take the third-round lead Saturday in the CareerBuilder Challenge.

“I think everybody talks about kind of they were in a zone, and I think that’s kind of what happened,” Hadwin said. “I was thinking about it. I knew exactly where I was. I knew exactly what I needed to do. It just didn’t seem to matter.”

2 easy steps to becoming a hermit If you’ve ever thought of becoming a hermit, now is probably a great time.

There are really two basic steps to becoming a hermit: 1) have a reason, and 2) start being a hermit.

It is usually easy to find a reason. Perhaps you were destined for great things, only to find out your fiancée was, in fact, the discarded mistress of a Russian czar.

This is a common occurrence, but usually only in Tolstoy novels. Maybe you are fed up with office politics, because no matter how hard you work, Benny from shipping and receiving always seems to get the credit. You might even want to get away from it all because, say, you find the elected head of state of your country to be a monumental, global embarrassment.

It used to be that to become a hermit, you had give up everything and move far away from society into some backwoods hut, down a path that no one traveled, and live in relative discomfort. You had to store enough firewood not to freeze in the winter and figure out a way to trap small animals for food. You also needed to grow a long scraggly beard, which was difficult for some men and near impossible if you were a non-Italian female.

But now, in our age of less reason and more internet, becoming a hermit has never been easier – or more desirable.

You can start in your very own tidy, suburban, Homeowners’ Association-controlled subdivision.

First thing you need is a source of income. Now, if you can invent something or write a ballad and get Adele to make it her new signature song, then that would be the way to go. Barring that, you will need an online job.

Online job search sites such as CareerBuilder, LinkedIn and Monster.com have thousands of jobs available with little to no real qualifications. I found one for a virtual assistant at an annual salary of $50,000. Lacking actual accountability, virtual assistants usually can get away

with a longer lunch break.

Perhaps you want something a little more challenging. How about online translator? Don’t actually know a foreign language? No problem. Online college at University of Phoenix or Southern New Hampshire University will get you fluent in Portuguese in no time – all without ever having to sit in a drafty lecture hall or next to a man-bunned hipster. Whatever your career choice, the next step is direct deposit into your online bank, and you are ready to live the quiet life.

When you get hungry, you can load all your food in your cyber cart at Peapod or Blue Apron and have it delivered to your door. There is even Purple Carrot for you annoying vegans.

Keeping healthy and diagnosing yourself is a snap with medical advice from WebMD and Healthline. After you convince yourself you have a terminal disease, you can order your own lab kit from LabsMD or consult with an online doctor at MeMD and never endure another outdated waiting room Sports Illustrated.

Ready for pharmaceuticals without the interference from a know-it-all medical professional? Head to Trust-Meds or WithoutPrescription.com and load up on all the medicine you have determined you need to keep you sequestered.

However, man does not live on food and drugs alone. Frequently, there must be entertainment. Spotify, Pandora and Tidal provide you with music to brood by. Choose a genre that will reinforce your nihilistic beliefs, lest you be tempted to rejoin the masses. Make certain to keep plenty of Radiohead, Coldplay and Bjork in your playlist. Don’t forget a post-1986 Sting mix. Netflix and Amazon Instant Video are there to make sure you get your fill of movies that remind you why you left humanity in the first place. Get your queue loaded with Lynch, Bergman and Aronofsky. Also, maybe “A Clockwork Orange”/“Old Yeller” double feature.

Despite the above necessities, there are areas of substantial savings being a recluse. Personal hygiene can be cut back to one bar of soap a month. In-style clothing no longer will be needed. No one will see you. You can wear anything you want. Sweatpants and that Whitesnake concert tee, your old high school gym uniform or nothing at all.

But, what if all this loneliness and isolation has the opposite effect? Instead of strengthening your resolute withdrawal from community, you long for a kind word or gentle glance. Match.com and eHarmony will connect you with that sexy solitarian that can’t stand “rude people, egomaniacs and cheaters,” and likewise shares your disdain for 21st century humans. A virtual, cyber soulmate. The problem is, as with all women (even a lady hermit), she ultimately will want an actual date, at a restaurant with wait staff, and usually demand a shrimp cocktail.

And that is the beginning of the end of the solitary life for you. Once you see her angelic online picture, you will want to see her in person, and then, even after you realize her posted photo was taken from the height of your average utility pole, you still will be smitten. You will, having found love again, forgo the eremitic life and re-enter the populace just to be with her.

Be also warned, when you, like Zarathustra, do emerge from the gulag of your self-imposed solitude, your Nietzsche-starved neighbors will expect wisdom. Don’t disappoint them with overused “Blue Velvet” quotes or “Gilmore Girls” trivia.

GardeningTips Start planning for spring

It is too early to start most spring vegetables from seed, but if you have an indoor seed-starting apparatus and are itching to germinate something, try leek seeds.

Seedlings started now should be ready for transplanting in April, after “hardening off,” or conditioning for the garden environment.

Check for mite webbing

Mite webbing on house plants is a sign of low humidity levels, which can be raised by placing pots on trays of gravel and water. This is separate from watering, and the base of the pots should sit above the water line. Misting leaves is ineffective and can promote fungal diseases. Grouping plants together, away from drafts and

heat registers, will create a pocket of humidity, but keep sick plants out of the group.

Test seed viability

You can test the viability of old seed by placing individual seeds on a wet paper towel. Fold the towel over the seed and place it in a plastic food bag. Use 20 seeds for small seed such as lettuce or

carrots and 10 for larger ones such as melons or sunflowers. Soak beans and peas overnight before testing. Leave the bag at room temperature for a week - light is unnecessary - and check the seeds for germination. If fewer than half have sprouted, discard the corresponding packet of seeds.

Aisle denial

Grocery shopping in person vs. online: Which is better for you?

By ELISABETH LEAMY The Washington Post

Grocery guru Chrissy Pate knows how to stack coupons, price match and stockpile her way to groceries for as much as 80 percent off – even scoring some products free. She runs the savings website BeCentsAble.net and during the recession held “coupon parties,” where she taught others to shop and save as she does.

Yet when her Kansas City-area grocery store started offering online shopping about a month ago, Pate jumped at the chance to try it, even though there was a delivery fee and her store did not allow paper coupons or price matching for online orders.

Why would a power shopper be willing to forgo some of her favorite savings strategies to shop online?

“For shoppers who take the time to stack coupons and price match, shopping in-store will bring bigger savings,” Pate explained. “But, let’s face it, many people are never going to do that and, for them, online shopping is another way to save, because you can keep an eye on your running total as you shop to stick to your budget.”

So Pate took the plunge. “Right after I placed my order, I went to the store to test out what the price difference would have been,” she said, “and I found everything I ordered was the same price at the store.”

Whether grocers mark up prices in their online stores is a big question. I checked prices at Giant and Safeway, two of the largest grocery chains in the country, against those of their own delivery services. The total for 10 popular products at both chains’ brick-and-mortar locations came to about $45. Their online store totals were within a dollar or two of that, not counting delivery. Of course, I priced only 10 items, but when the website Cheapism.com compared stores’ online and in-store prices it also found they were pretty consistent.

So if we consider that settled, then it’s all about whether you can make back the delivery fee. Stores charge between $7.95 and $12.95 to deliver your groceries, depending on the size of your purchase. You also may want to tip your driver, although some stores don’t allow it.

You offset a little of that money right away because you do not have to pay for gas, but the bigger benefit is the time saved by skipping the trip.

Shopping online saves time in other ways, too. First, even on your very

Various food items sit on shelves at one of Peapod’s online distribution facility in Lake Zurich in June 2012.

More tips for grocery savings Online • Some stores allow you to use paper coupons for online orders by presenting them to your driver. Others have virtual coupons right on their websites.

• Look for tools that list products you have bought in the past that are on sale.

• Some grocers have coupon codes for free delivery or offer free delivery for orders over a certain dollar amount. Manufacturers sometimes will pay for your delivery if you buy a certain amount of their products.

• When certain delivery time slots are not filling up, stores often discount them.

In-store • As I compared in-store and online prices, I saw several in-store deals that were not available online. Keep an eye out.

• Advanced couponers know you usually can “stack” manufacturer and store coupons.

• To save the most, try stocking up on nonperishables when they are at their cheapest, rather than when you need them.

• Scan all the store circulars in your area, then cherry-pick the best deals all at one store that price matches. This usually works in-store only. first online shopping trip, if you enter your loyalty card number, all the products you’ve bought at the store in the past should pop up as a customized shopping list. Just click the ones you’d like to buy again and you’re done. No inefficient wandering from aisle to aisle. Second, shopping from home also means you can check your pantry to see whether you need something, rather than guessing and wasting

food. Third, taking kids to the supermarket inevitably takes more time.

Delivery solves that. “You can shop in your PJs after the kids are in bed,” Pate points out.

But by far the best way to earn back your delivery fee is by using the online store’s running cost tally as you shop.

“A lot of people like that ability to manage their budget and take things

out of their cart if they need to,” said Peg Merzbacher of Giant’s Peapod delivery service. And you can do it without making a scene in the checkout line.

The computer’s knack for sorting also can help you shop around.

“We make it easy to sort your selections by unit price,” Merzbacher said. “That’s a little cumbersome to do in-store, looking up and down the shelves, but it’s easy to do online.”

Personally, when I have time, I enjoy going to the grocery store to see what’s new and what’s in season. I think of this as “inspiration” for my cooking. Others would call it by another I-word: “impulse buying.” Shopping online short-circuits those unplanned purchases.

“For us, it’s kind of challenging, because we may be losing some of the impulse buys,” Merzbacher said.

Bottom line for your bottom line: If you’re a super shopper with the time and discipline to stack coupons, price match and shop in-person, that’s how you will save more money. But if you’re more of a frazzled shopper, you could well do better by shopping online, sidestepping impulse buys and watching that running total so you stay on budget.

Walking past boxes of belongings, Nancy Morton retrieves several of her favorite books. Morton neglected to go down into her basement for a few months last year, and when she finally did, she found mold covering everything after higher than normal temperatures and humidity. Most of the stored items had to be burned or thrown out.

A

s she passed it on her way to do laundry, Nancy Morton noticed the Christmas tree she had stored in her Harvard basement changing color.

Mold. It was covered in mold.

“I suppose it was just a series of errors on my part,” Morton said. “I just neglected my basement, big time.”

Spring isn’t the only time to be cleaning; winter comes with its own set of projects that shouldn’t be ignored or put off for better weather.

Minding the finished basement largely had been her boyfriend’s territory, but when he passed away, Morton neglected to give the area much attention.

“I was using it more or less like an oversized closet,” she said.

“I was just storing boxes down there; other people were storing things down there.”

Her oversight ended up costing $7,000 for mold remediation – which was especially painful considering spending a few hun-

dred dollars on a dehumidifier likely would have prevented the problem.

Morton hired Frankfort-based Mold Solutions to do the job. Regional sales manager Adam Mrazek said humidity levels should be below 60 percent, but Morton’s basement had double the amount of a normal basement.

The lack of a dehumidifier coupled with radiant heat caused her problems, Mrazek said.

“Because of both things working with each other but against her, it created all the surface mold,” he said. “No moisture, no mold, so if any homeowner has a mold problem, there’s moisture.”

Dehumidifiers are the first step, Mrazek said, followed by a properly functioning sump pump.

“The third thing is routine maintenance and always knowing what your property does,” he said. “If it’s raining heavily, I walk around my basement to see if I have any water coming in.”

See MOLD, page 5

Continued from page 4 Morton said one of the worst parts of the situation was having to destroy many of her beloved books. Mold doesn’t discriminate and couldn’t care less if it’s ruining fine literature.

“You don’t realize how much you love your books until you have to burn them,” Morton said.

Just as basements need attention, look up, too: Don’t neglect the attic.

The weather has been up and down in recent weeks with temperatures fluctuating greatly, which can mean an uptick in calls for roofing companies.

“People start seeing spots on their ceilings, and they’ll call us out thinking they have a roof leak,” said Ben Decker, project coordinator with AMB Roofing in Johnsburg. “Really, they’re having condensation issues in their attic.”

For example, it may be 18 degrees one day and then jump up to 42 degrees, but the temperature in the attic still may be in between.

“Your shingles are getting warmed by the sun, so the outside of your roof is heating up and the nails used to put the shingles on are condensating from the temperature change,” Decker said.

“Those will start dripping water.”

Eventually, the insulation may become saturated, and rust-colored water spots start appearing on the ceiling.

“It will be concentrated in one area,” Decker said. “If it’s a leak, it would be more severe.”

Both proper ventilation and the

When she finally did months later, she found mold covering everything. right amount of insulation are key, Decker said.

“The first thing you want to do is check how much insulation you have up there, with a minimum of 8 inches,” he said. “Anything above and beyond that is even better.”

In particular, check the hatch or access point to the attic, where insulation often is skipped altogether.

A professional can make sure there’s adequate ventilation, with enough baffles – which hold back insulation from the soffits, or underside of the roof’s overhang – installed to allow proper

airflow.

Without ventilation, if no one checks the attic for long enough, the homeowner could find that the plywood up there turned black and is covered with mold, not unlike Morton’s costly situation.

“Maybe somebody can learn from my mistake,” Morton said.

As her basement has gotten cleaned up, she’s also noticed an improvement her health.

“I did have chronic sinusitis, but no doctor said ‘check for mold,’ ” she said.

“I feel much better now, after it was cleaned up.”

“People start seeing spots on their ceilings, and they’ll call us out thinking they have a roof leak. Really, they’re having condensation issues in their attic.”

Find mental health benefits in setting limits In the beginning, limits are forced on us. We have to eat, sleep and take a bath according to a schedule. As we grow, we sometimes test these basic limits, refusing to eat “everything on the plate” or to obey “lights out NOW!” or ever taking a bath. We become autonomous in stages.

If we grow into healthy adults, we are capable of setting limits with ourselves (“I have had enough to drink.”) and with others (“No, I can’t take that on, I’ve got too much on my plate right now”).

Some of us, though, have trouble with limits even as adults. Sometimes we can’t say “no” to ourselves because we feel deprived, emotionally and spiritually hungry. Sometimes we feel if we tell someone else “no,” they won’t like us, respect us or love us. Sometimes we feel we “should” say “yes” because it’s expected of us or because it’s the “right” thing to do.

As a psychotherapist, I work with

a number of clients who have big problems setting limits. They say “yes” in the moment, then somehow sabotage that good intention by forgetting, getting sick or bringing resentment along to the mission. My job is to teach them how to know when their “yes” is really “YES!” and when it is a cleverly disguised “no” – or, as I like to call it, “a ‘yes’ in sheepish clothing.”

The first person to check with is not your mother, your friend or God. Some will be horrified to include the Deity, but, I remind you, the Deity, if you are a believer, gave us free will. This means, check in with yourself first. For example: You have a full-time job. In addition, you have family obligations.

You also belong to the Girl Scouts of America as a den mother. Your boss has given you a deadline, your son has a baseball game, for which you are the designated team driver, and the GSA Leadership Committee calls asking you to head up the cookie sale this year.

You sure are popular! Of course, you say “yes!” Because you have to meet the boss’s deadline. And, if you ask someone else to drive the team, you’re a bad mother. And if you say “no” to the Scouts, you’ll lose face with the rest of the den mothers. After all, it’s an honor even to be asked.

Oh, and your husband just brought home a puppy. And, of course, Sparky, whom the children already love madly, is not housebroken.

This is how you say “no.” First, you check in with you. That means just you – not your boss’s employee, not your son’s mother, not the leadership of the Girl Scouts of America. You wear all these hats, it’s true, but when you check in with yourself, you ask yourself, “What are my priorities?”

You then decide, based on that and that alone, whether or not to say “yes.”

And, here’s a clue – if your “yes” is qualified in any way, no matter how seemingly small, it’s really a cleverly

disguised “no.” So, “Yes, but …” is a resounding NO. ‘Yes, if…” means NO. If all of you isn’t in, it’s NO. As for me, I’d say no to the Scouts, no to the driving, yes to the boss and, of course, YES to the puppy ... but that’s just me. Your priorities might be different. Only you can decide.

Now, here is the mental health payoff: if you always say the real “yes” and the real “no,” your stress level will go down to practically zero. (That is probably an exaggeration, but it will definitely go down. I promise.) And, people will stop saying, behind your back, “Oh, she always says she’ll help, but then she never shows up!”

Short, dreary days call for a dose of Vitamin D

By CASEY SEIDENBERG The Washington Post

It is officially winter in our household because I have pulled out the vitamin D supplements. My daughter was too young last winter to remember she added a vitamin to her morning routine, but my boys knew what it signaled.

Instead of gobbling down the vitamins without query as they did last winter, my boys fired questions my way as to why they had to take them. I guess this is what teenagers do: They question their parents about everything, even the things they have taken for granted for more than a decade.

I’m OK with their questions. I certainly don’t want them blindly taking vitamins or pills under any other circumstances, even if prescribed by a doctor. Asking questions is good.

Demanding explanations is good. Understanding dosages is good.

So, boys, here are the reasons I want you to take vitamin D in the winter, even though we should get all of our other nutrients from whole foods.

Our bodies naturally derive vitamin D from two main sources: sunlight and food. In the winter, there is no way you boys get enough sunlight on your bare

What’s the deal with vitamin D? Vitamin D is not actually a vitamin but rather a group of hormones. They help the body absorb nutrients such as calcium, iron, magnesium and zinc, as well as boost the immune system. The current recommended daily allowance for individuals ages 1 to 70 is 600 IU, or international units, but more recent research recommends up to 2,000 IU or even higher. skin. The sun is low, the days are short, long sleeves and gloves prevail, and you guys, like almost everyone else in the winter, spend a majority of your day inside. Also, like most kids your age (and most adults for that matter), you do not eat enough of the foods that are naturally high in vitamin D: fatty fish such as mackerel, herring and salmon, and cod liver oil. Although many brands of milk and orange juice are fortified with vitamin D, it still is almost impossible to derive enough of it solely from food.

Why is vitamin D important?

Vitamin D is not actually a vitamin but rather a group of hormones. You may be surprised I am suggesting we bring extra hormones into our house, but like all hormones, these have some pretty important jobs. They help the body absorb nutrients such as calcium, iron, magnesium and zinc. This is why vitamin D is added to calcium-rich milk. Studies show only 10 to 15

percent of calcium in food is absorbed without vitamin D. If you boys want to fight off colds this winter so you don’t miss any sports games or weekend fun, vitamin D can help boost your immune system.

If you would like strong, healthy bones, vitamin D is king. If you don’t want your heart to putter out at an early age or your mind to deteriorate, look to vitamin D. It also is shown to prevent cancer by regulating cellular growth.

The current recommended daily allowance for individuals ages 1 to 70 is 600 IU, or international units, but more recent research at the Boston University School of Medicine recommends up to 2,000 IU. Other studies recommend even higher levels for optimal health.

The confusion around the ideal daily allowance prompted a 2010 large-scale study at a Boston affiliate of Harvard University to investigate whether vitamin D can help prevent cancer, heart disease, stroke and other chronic

conditions in more than 25,000 American men and women. Stay tuned – the study is expected to wrap up later this year.

Because one glass of milk provides just 100 IU of vitamin D, a piece of salmon offers 360 IU and an egg yolk under 50 IU, even the lowest recommendation of 600 IU a day is hard for most children to attain without regular sun exposure. No wonder so many studies show a vast number of kids in the United States, especially adolescents and those living in northern states, are deficient. So until the spring comes, the sun shines steadily, and you guys get off the indoor basketball court and onto the outdoor baseball field, a vitamin D supplement will join us for breakfast each morning.

Consult your doctor as to whether a supplement is right for your child. Individual needs differ based on how much time people spend outside, where they live, their skin color, the foods they eat and their use of sunscreen.

Three addicts couldn’t be saved, but why not?

In the past two days, I have heard the stories of three drug overdose deaths. The first two were heroin ODs, and the third was a mixture of benzodiazepines (anti-anxiety medication) and alcohol.

Honestly, I’m tired of hearing these stories and the associated grief and shock that is left in their wake. I feel for the families left behind; the children without a dad or mom, the friends left wondering and maybe blaming themselves. All three were in their 20s.

Two had children, and all three were loved and loving people. All three were rehab graduates, and in two cases had multiple rehab visits.

All three had tried to get clean, and all three had some significant clean time.

I’m a counselor, and so, from the school that says talking about it helps.

I believe talking about it helps move through the grief and the ache of loss. I believe talking about it makes it real.

I also know you can’t save everybody, but I wonder sometimes why not.

I know I (we) have to do what we can and know when to let go, but weren’t these just kids? I suppose it’s easy to ignore all this pain if it didn’t happen to you or someone you know personally. I understand how easy it is to depersonalize all of this, but the sheer weight of numbers is getting to be a little much. More people are dying of opiate overdoses than in car accidents, for crying out loud.

“Donny” was a good student and an aspiring baseball player until sophomore year, when the drugs started.

Everything took a back seat to them except his girlfriend; nothing else mattered. He ended up in rehab his senior year after getting busted for selling pills to an undercover police officer. After his release, he started a regular recovery program and did well for nearly a year, but when his girlfriend moved to Florida he couldn’t

Poets sought for reading, rally for social justice McHENRY – The Social Justice Committee of Tree of Life Unitarian Universalist Congregation is asking for poets to join the Resistance.

Poets in Resistance, a public reading and rally, will be at 7 p.m. March 10 at the church, 5603 Bull Valley Road, McHenry.

“In response to the many threats to civil liberties, social justice, women’s rights, marriage equality, voting rights, the ecology, and the basic economic security and medical care of millions of Americans arising from the election of Donald Trump as president and radically reactionary majorities in Congress, we are calling on poets in McHenry County and the surrounding area to join a growing and active Resistance,” organizer Patrick Murfin said.

Interested poets should prepare 10 minutes of original material or selected readings from other sources. Work can be in any genre or style, and the widest possible variety of viewpoints is encouraged. Poets with published

material or audio media can display and sell them on shared table space.

To sign up, contact Murfin at pmurfin@sbcglobal.net or 815-814-5645.

Murfin, a published poet and longtime local social justice activist, also organized Poets Against the War reading and program in 2004. Murfin is the author of “We Build Temples in the Heart,” a collection published in 2004 by Skinner House Books of Boston. His poetry frequently appears in his daily blog, Heretic, Rebel, a Thing to Flout, where he also curates an annual National Poetry Month feature. He often reads verse at Tree of Life’s quarterly Haystacks Coffee House Open Mic and Jams. As a local activist, the 67-year-old Crystal Lake resident has been an organizer of and spokesperson for many social justice campaigns. He is perhaps best known as an organizer and annual host of the Diversity Day Festival held annually on Woodstock Square.

For information, contact the Tree of Life office at 815-322-2464 or office@ treeoflifeuu.org, or visit www.treeoflifeuu.org.
