A pair of Rockford properties have been recognized for their preservation efforts by Landmarks Illinois. The Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Laurent House, on Springbrook Road, and downtown’s Prairie Street Brewhouse became the fifth and sixth local recipients of the group’s annual Richard H. Driehaus Foundation Preservation Awards. “It’s certainly one of the more prestigious preservation awards here in the state,” said architect Gary Anderson. “Rockford is certainly doing its part in preserving its heritage and history and being recognized for it is a great sign of those efforts.” Anderson says both buildings represent unique parts of Rockford’s architectural heritage, with the Brewhouse drawing back to the city’s industrial age and its relationship with the Rock River, and the Laurent House showing the national shift in accessibility via design. “Laurent House – being designed of course by one of the more renowned architects of the day and being so far ahead of the curve with accessibility – it says a lot about what Wright did to advance architecture, and how it could be made to adapt to people with special needs. “Those ideas, much like his architecture, are still relevant today. They’re still unique and fresh.”

County purchasing director resigns

Winnebago County Purchasing Director Sally Claassen resigned Friday amid an investigation to spending irregularities under her watch. Claassen submitted her resignation September 11; she had been placed on administrative leave effective August 3 as the county’s investigation was carried out. Supervising power of the department has been transferred to County Administrator Steve Chapman while the investigation continues. The county says that while the investigation is ongoing, no further comment will be made.

Energy & Environment

Finding food security in turbulent times By Robert and Sonia Vogl

President and Vice President, Illinois Renewable Energy Association

ecognizing the problems associated with the current global food supply system, many groups have established local food systems. Farmers’ markets having grown exponentially, increasing 180 percent between 2006 and 2012. Although the modern food system makes large amounts of diverse foods available at relatively low prices, it is fragile, as major weather events disrupt supplies. In a severe storm “just-in-time” supplies disappear quickly, leaving people without food. In 2012, as a result of superstorm Sandy, New York residents stood in line for hours waiting for emergence supplies. Climate change may well bring more hazardous weather events. Disease, sabotage and drought can disrupt what seems to be a well working system. Local, smaller food systems are less subject to disruption than large systems. One problem can affect an entire global network but affect only a small part of a large network of small systems. Local food travels far shorter distances, reducing the use of fossil fuels and resulting

in fewer greenhouse gas emissions. More people can become familiar with those who grow their food locally, leading to greater confidence in the quality of their food and a stronger sense of community. Since the time elapsed between harvest and consumption is less with local food, the food is fresher, retains more nutrients and is tastier, so less of it is wasted. Nearly half of American food ends in landfills as does nearly a third of fresh vegetables from stores and restaurants. Communities can collect these wastes and recycle them as compost. Historically, local food systems exploded in times of need. During World War II “Victory Gardens,” backyard plots meant to feed a family, produced nearly half of America’s food. Currently, numerous examples of local food systems are growing. At the recent Renewable Energy and Sustainability Fair, Featured Speaker Dan Kenney, Founder and Executive Director of non-profit DeKalb County Community Gardens,shared his efforts to provide food security for the county. He described how DeKalb County is working to build resilient communities during these early turbulent days of climate change. By building a sustainable local food security system, they are

also creating resiliency that will enable the county to better withstand the coming volatility. With 70 partners and 300 volunteers, Kenny’s program has donated 50,000 lbs. of food to pantries in the county. Raised beds, fruit trees and heirloom seeds are all part of the system. The DeKalb City Hall has an edible landscape. Kishwaukee College has courses on preparing food. Hoop houses extend the growing season with early started bedding plants. The Kingston Public Library has a wheelchair accessible garden. One-in-six Americans frequently go hungry; one in 12 senior citizens go hungry in order to provide food for their grandchildren. Parents often skip meals to feed their children. Half of DeKalb’s school children eat school lunches, many free or at a reduced cost. After the last meal on Friday, these children can face hungry weekends. A new backpack program distributing free or reduced cost weekend meals helps alleviate children’s food insecurity. The ultimate path to a sustainable, secure food system is individuals, families and communities returning to gardening which is relying on solar energy for one of our most basic needs.

Farming

Storing fruits and vegetables for winter By Grant McCarty Local Foods and Small Farms Educator, University of Illinois Extension

As fall weather comes in, there is a decline in the growth of the fruit and vegetables you are growing. Hopefully you are still getting some yields these last weeks before the first frost as many of these plants are still able to tolerate the 50s and 60s. With this shift to a new season, now is the opportunity to stock up on produce for winter. When considering produce storage, you want to think about your cold storage space. Many of these will need a cold area like a refrigerator to be stored. An environment of 32F is ideal for carrots, beets, cabbage, kale, Brussel sprouts, and others.

Another group contains potatoes, onions, garlic, winter squash, and others that can be stored outside of a fridge. They should be stored in a dark area that does not get too warm. Certain produce likes cold and dry conditions while others like cold and moist. Those that go in the fridge will like the cold and moist conditions while those that like cold and dry will not. Humidity can be the deciding factor as to whether produce will keep its expected shelf life. Moist conditions should have 95 percent relative humidity while dry conditions should be 65 percent. Because farmers markets are still open, this is the perfect time to be acquiring what you need this winter. By telling the growers you are planning to stock up, you may find that they have “stocking up specials.” You may also want to reach out to them once the farmers markets have ended as into November and December, they may still have produce available for sell. With orchards now open, many apple varieties will store well in the fridge between layers of paper bags. Consult with your orchard to determine what variety is best for cold storage. Different produce keeps at different lengths of time. Some may store for 3-5 months while others may store from 1-2 months. By knowing the conditions your produce needs, this will lead to enjoying local produce in the winter.

Smaller corn supplies provide opportunity for price rallies By Debra Levey Larson U of I News Bureau

URBANA – The December 2015 corn futures reached a low of $3.575 following the release of the surprisingly large production forecast on August 12. Prices, however, found some support from the USDA Crop Production and World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) report released on Sept. 11. According to University of Illinois agricultural economist Darrel Good, December futures had recovered to near $3.92 in early trading on Sept. 14. “The information in the Sept. 11 USDA reports points to slightly smaller supplies for the 201516 marketing year and prospects for smaller year-ending inventories than forecast in August,” Good said. “The prospects for smaller supplies come from a combination of smaller carryover supplies of old-crop corn and a smaller production forecast. Supplies of old-crop corn are expected to total 1.732 billion bushels, 40 million bushels less than projected last month. The reduction reflects increases in the estimates of domestic processing uses and exports of corn during the marketing year that just ended. The 2015 corn crop is now forecasted to be 13.585 billion bushels, 101 million bushels smaller than the August forecast. The projection of feed and residual use of corn during the current marketing year was reduced by 25 million bushels from the August forecast, reflecting the expected impact of the smaller production forecast. The projection of the amount of corn to be used to produce sweeteners was increased by five million bushels. Stocks of corn at the end of the marketing year are projected at 1.592 billion bushels, 121 million less than projected last month and 140 million bushels less than stocks at the start of the year. The projection represents 11.6 percent of projected consumption, compared to the stocks-to-use ratio of 12.6 percent for the year

just ended,” he said. Good said the price of corn will be influenced by a number of factors over the next two months, but upcoming forecasts of marketing-year supplies will be one of the more important factors. The estimate of year-ending stocks of old-crop corn will be available with the release of the USDA’s Grain Stocks report on Sept. 30. Consumption of old-crop corn during the year that just ended is mostly known, except for feed and residual use. “Feed and residual use during the final quarter of the year will be revealed by the estimate of Sept.1 stocks of old-crop corn,” Good said. “That use is difficult to anticipate because use during any particular quarter varies considerably from year to year and is not highly correlated to animal numbers. Fourth quarter feed and residual use may also reflect unknownerrorsintheestimateofthepreviousyear’s production. For feed and residual use during the 2014-15 marketing year to equal the USDA forecast of 5.3 billion bushels, resulting in year-ending stocks of 1.732 billion bushels, fourth quarter use needs to total 516 million bushels. That is nearly 25 percent more than use during the fourth quarter last year and the largest fourth quarter use in six years. Use at that level appears attainable because third quarter use was up 29 percent from that of last year. Because of the uncertainty surrounding quarterly feed and residual use and possible production estimate errors, the USDA’s estimate of Sept. 1 corn stocks can sometimes provide a surprise,” Good said. According to Good, the forecast of the size of the 2015 corn crop will also likely change over the next two months. Estimates of planted and harvested acreage sometimes change in the USDA’s October Crop Production report as administrative data, primarily from the Farm Service Agency (FSA), are incorporated into the acreage estimates. “Sometimes potential changes can be anticipated based on FSA monthly reports of planted acreage that has been reported by those producers participating in federal farm programs.” Good said estimates of the average 2015 national corn yield will likely change over the next two months as well, if history is any guide. The September yield forecast of 167.5 bushels was 1.3 bushels less than the August forecast and expectations revealed in newswire surveys suggest that the trade expects the October forecast to be even smaller. With corn supplies for the 2015-16 marketing year less burdensome than projected earlier, Good said there will likely be opportunities for price rallies over the next several months. “As with recent rallies, the magnitude of the rallies may be limited and the duration may be brief,” Good said. “Still, producers in many parts of the Corn Belt will likely see opportunities to forward price stored corn for late winter/early spring delivery above $4.”

Larsen marks 25 years with the Rockford Symphony Orchestra By Dr. Rob Tomaro

T Contributor

he symphony orchestra in America is in transition. Orchestras are searching for relevance in the changing landscape of popular culture, and fighting for each entertainment dollar that the American family spends. Executive Directors, administrators, and yes, conductors, come and go, from the community level to the triple-A level, as everyone searches for the combination of elements that will spell success. It is with this in mind that we find ourselves reflecting upon the 25th anniversary of Maestro Steven Larsen’s tenure with our Rockford Symphony Orchestra. When he took over in the early ‘90s, it was in trouble. There was dissension in the ranks regarding the leadership of the outgoing conductor. Season subscription memberships were down, as was the “buzz” about the orchestra in the community. “There was talk of whether Rockford could support a professional orchestra or whether they should just shut it down. When I took over, the annual budget was about

$250,000 a year. By 1995, we had brought it up to $500,000. Now it’s something like $1,200,000.” The numbers, impressive as they are by themselves, are even more remarkable considering they represent a reversal in a trend of shrinking budgets and donor support for the arts. They signify a stunning turnaround from both a cultural and fiscal point of view, which can be attributed to Maestro Larsen’s skill as the steward of the organization, artistically and administratively. Though, when asked to what he attributes his success, he doesn’t cite his artistic gifts or business acumen; he just says it’s a matter of, “Treating people with courtesy.” “When I took over, the previous director had fired several members and wanted to fire more. I found though, early on, that players who couldn’t keep up with the higher standard to which the orchestra was rising simply dropped out, so there was no need for that.” This doesn’t sound like the classic model of the symphony conductor as imperious despot. This bespeaks someone with an understanding of the way people function in arts organizations, if treated with respect.

When asked how his approach to conducting has changed over the years, he says: “I try to approach all repertoire, even standard repertoire, with an inquisitive mind. I will be conducting the Brahms Symphony No. 4 this fall, a piece I’ve done many times. But, I’ve ordered a brand new score and am not looking at my markings from past performances. I’m not relying on the past. I know the notes. I know the history of the piece. I know Brahms”. On reflecting on his longevity, Larsen adds, with a chuckle, “I always thought of Brahms as an old man. Now I am older than he was when he wrote it.” And so a picture forms of who he is and what he has done, which may be factored in with his talent as can be illustrated by something that occurred when he was 19. Singing in the chorus of the Chicago Symphony at Sir George Solti’s premiere concert as Music Director, in which he had programmed the Beethoven Ninth Symphony, Larsen learned a valuable lesson that would stick for the rest of his prodigious career. The chorus was being prepared for him by Margaret Hillis, the pre-eminent figure

in choral conducting in America at that time. “When Miss Hillis conducted the choral finale in rehearsal, I saw there was a discrepancy between the rhythm she was teaching us and Beethoven’s printed rhythm in the score,” says Larsen. “She was wrong, and nobody seemed to notice. Then, when Maestro Solti took over, he got to the end and also conducted the wrong rhythm. During a break, I approached Maestra Hillis and pointed it out. Her eyes flew open. She immediately went to Maestro Solti and showed it to him in the score and I could see his eyes fly open and he started hitting his head with the palm of his hand. “When the rehearsal began again, the first thing Maestro said to the chorus and the orchestra was: ‘We have been making a mistake, a terrible, terrible mistake!’ Then, he made the correction.” I cannot come up with another 19-year-old kid who would have the temerity to challenge not one but two classical music icons. But he was right. Congratulations, Maestro. Here’s to the next 25 years.

‘No Escape’ a departure from Wilson’s ordinary fare By Thomas Simpson Contributor

wen Wilson isn’t known for actions films. It’s been 14 years since he was trapped Behind Enemy Lines so he seemed a strange choice for the lead in John Erick Dowdle’s No Escape. Known for his horror films, Dowdle would join his star actor in unfamiliar territory. Early criticism of the movie labelled it as racist and xenophobic, and although I could understand this viewpoint I disagreed with it. Beyond the politics it’s an uncomfortable and tense thriller. Jack Dwyer (Wilson) is an American engineer who moves his family to an unnamed South Asian country to start a new career. Despite the initial teething problems expected with such a move, life looks like it may be okay for the Dywers – otherwise known as the calm before the storm. A group of armed rebels stage a violent coup, decimating any opposition in their path with their ire focused on foreigners. Trapped, Dwyer must protect his family and find refuge before the rebels find him.

The opening title of No Escape pays homage to early-90s action films. It sets the tone of what to expect, even if people demand more morality and less stereotypes from movies in the 21st Century. A throwaway line by Pierce Brosnan’s mysterious Hammond provides perfect exposition

and attempts to add balance to proceedings but there is little opportunity to sympathise with the rebels. They’re bloodthirsty savages committing evil and despicable acts. By contrast though, the Dywers are only good guys by default. Wilson is more than a Hollywood funny

man and continues to show here that he’s perhaps an underrated actor. It’s Brosnan who steals the show though as he chews the scenery with vigour in his limited screen time. Lake Bell may seem relegated to damsel in distress as Dwyer’s wife but the whole family are moulded as stereotypes. What’s refreshing is how frustratingly realistic the kids are as their antics put them all in extreme peril. Dowdle doesn’t shy away from the brutality of his antagonists. He isn’t afraid of showing blood but it’s what he doesn’t reveal that it the most disturbing, as we can hear incredible acts of violence occurring off screen. What we do see isn’t overly graphic, but it is hard hitting and is sure to get the heart rate going. No Escape makes for some difficult viewing, especially considering recent news stories, but this isn’t meant to be a social commentary and shouldn’t be viewed as one. It’s a solid action thriller that will have you gripped from start to end. Thomas Simpson is a writer and filmmaker based in Glasgow, U.K. Find him on Twitter: @Simmy 41.

Time to play catch up on what’s a deep summer season By Paula Hendrickson Television Columnist

’ve been absent a few weeks, so please bear with me as I try to catch up. If you didn’t already know it, the 67th Annual Emmy Awards are coming up this weekend. This year’s host is Brooklyn Nine-Nine star and Saturday Night Live alum Andy Samberg.

Samberg might not (yet) have an Emmy as a performer, but he was nominated several times during his tenure on SNL — once for writing and six times for co-writing original music and lyrics for some of the show’s most popular music video parodies. Samberg and Justin Timberlake were part of 2007’s Emmy-winning songwriting team. How will Samberg do as a host? Your guess is

as good as mine. But with some hotly contested categories, it’s worth tuning in for the awards themselves, not just to critique the host. The fall season is beginning to roll out. As excited as I am for the new season of Doctor Who, I probably won’t watch the entire day-long marathon leading up to the season 9 premiere, but you might want to. The only reason I might skip some of the marathon is because I’ve seen those episodes before, and there are plenty of programs to choose from. Some promising new shows debuting this week include a comedy, a drama, and a new spin on the horror anthology series from the makers of Glee and American Horror Story: Life in Pieces – On the surface this CBS comedy may seem like the lovechild of Modern Family and Parenthood, but with each episode focusing on different combinations of a large and talented cast — including Oscar-winner Dianne Wiest, James Brolin, Betsy Brandt (Breaking Bad) and Colin Hanks (Fargo) — should help the new series quickly establish its own identity apart from those other popular family-focused shows. Blind Spot – This new NBC drama centers on a treasure map of a tattoo covering the body of an amnesiac (Jaimie Alexander) who has no idea who she is, what she does, or why she’s covered in tattoos that are keys to countless mysteries. Each answer raises new questions, so you can expect a roller-coaster of a ride from this series.

Scream Queens – Ryan Murphy’s new anthology series brings the original scream queen, Jamie Lee Curtis (Halloween, True Lies), back to the horror genre in a big way as dean of a university where a serial killer is targeting a snooty sorority. Focusing on one story and cast per season helps attract actors who want to do TV without getting tied down to a multi-year contract. Among those joining Curtis are Lea Michele (Glee), Emma Roberts (American Horror Story), Abigail Breslin (Little Miss Sunshine), Keke Palmer (Akeelah and the Bee), and Nasim Pedrad (SNL). The new season has barely begun and there’s already new programming to suit just about anyone’s taste. Don’t be afraid to sample shows that seem different from your usual fare. You might just enjoy it. And if you don’t you can always change the channel.

Programming Notes

Doctor Who season premiere is Saturday at 8 p.m. on BBC America. 67th Emmy Awards airs live Sunday starting at 7 p.m. on Fox. Life in Pieces debuts Monday at 7:30 p.m. on CBS. Blind Spot debuts Monday at 9:00 p.m. on NBC. Scream Queens debuts Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. on Fox and moves to its regular 8 p.m. time slot the following week.

Commentary

Debt strike: a new form of resistance

By Nancy Churchill Contributor

enjamin Franklin said the only sure thing in life is debt and taxes. Oh, wait, that was death and taxes. But since debt will be the death of us, he might as well have said debt and taxes. There’s a movement afoot suggesting that, instead of accepting minor tweaks to the debt problem, we strike. That’s right, take a complete “debt holiday”! Debt really is inevitable. And it seems obvious it’s supposed to be. Debt, like tax cuts, is just one more source of enormous revenue for giant financial institutions. And current household debt in the U.S. is $11.85 trillion — enough clout in a debt strike to get anyone’s attention. Tax cuts create the need for debt. “[I]f a country like Jamaica or Greece, or a municipality like Baltimore or Detroit, has insufficient revenue [due to tax cuts] to make its debt payments, it is morally compelled to privatize public assets, slash pensions and salaries, liquidate natural resources, and cut public services so it can use the savings to pay creditors” (YES! magazine, Charles Eisenstein, “Empowered By Debt,” yesmag-

azine.org/issues/the-debt-issue/ don-t-owe-won-t-pay-charles-eisenstein-debt-20150820). And of course no one blames the tax cuts that choked off the revenue in the first place. Revenue shortfalls just happen. And those

households, students — and endless free cash for the debt-holder. So Professor Richard Robbins has created a “Debtor’s Bill of Rights” (faculty.plattsburgh.edu/ richard.robbins/bill_of_rights. htm).

harms that these requirements inflict on all citizens and countries of the world.... [T]he need for perpetual capital growth has come to rival all others, including the need to eat, to breathe, to ensure justice and to aid those in need.”

tax cuts were essential to keeping businesses in town to create jobs, the argument goes. Never mind that no records are required to see how many jobs were (or were not) actually created. This is not a problem of abuses within a system, it’s the abusive debtor system itself, a system designed to create intolerable perpetual debt for municipalities,

The debt problem arises, its Preamble states, “in the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a tiny minority and in our burden of maintaining ... perpetual economic growth.” The Debtor’s Bill of Rights is required “to correct the distortion of our economy created by the requirements of indebtedness and perpetual economic growth and the consequent

It’s derived from “[t]he quest for the endless accumulation of capital [that] rules, not only our economy, but our lives.” We’re forced to “do everything that we can to ensure perpetual growth, even if it requires the sacrifice of our environment, our family and social life, political freedoms, health, happiness and well-being. It requires that we labor more for

less, create and tolerate societies of grotesque inequality and injustice, develop systems of persuasion, manipulation and surveillance that are completely foreign to the ideals on which our society was founded, and distort the true market economy to which we aspire.” The legal principle for challenging otherwise legal debts, says Eisenstein, is “odious debt” — “debt incurred on behalf of a nation by its leaders that does not actually benefit the nation, [a] concept [that] can be extended into a powerful tool for systemic change.” “Odious debt was a key concept in recent debt audits on the national level,” for instance, “most notably that of Ecuador in 2008 that led to its defaulting on billions of dollars of its foreign debt. Nothing terrible happened to it, setting a dangerous precedent (from the creditors’ point of view).” “[E]ven the most modest challenges to debt legitimacy, such as ... citizen audits, have revolutionary implications,” he says. “They cast into question the certainty of debt. If one debt can be nullified, maybe all of them can — not only for nations but for municipalities, school districts, hospitals, and people too.”

Unvoidable truths of the RVC salary situation

Calling all girls

RVC Faculty Association umbers are used to make or break arguments. Standing alone, in essays or charts, in bold or fine print, numbers say something, have power, can win or lose an argument, a battle, a war. What happens if numbers are used incorrectly, falsely, and have the effect of swaying the court of public opinion? This is when numbers stop being facts and become ammunition. There are key discrepancies regarding the facts between the negotiating parties, the Rock Valley College Faculty Association and the RVC College Board of Trustees. The mean faculty base salary at RVC is $66,000, but the median (a more meaningful number because it is the middle value in a list of numbers) is around $63,000. In addition, when factoring in the College’s proposal that would increase the percentage paid for health benefits, many faculty members’ take-home pay would be further reduced, resulting in, for many, another significant pay cut. The RVC Board of Trustees boldly, publicly, and falsely reported the following base salary on the college’s main webpage: “Base salaries on a 9 month work schedule range up to over $106,000 annually and average around $66,000 annually” (posted August 25). In fact, there is no such faculty member earning a 106,000 base salary annually. The bar graph to the right shows actual Faculty Base Salaries, the highest of which is nowhere near that excessive figure. The information below is up-to-date and has been fact checked. Note the frequency of salaries in the $50,000 range. To put this into perspective, many of the students we proudly teach graduate with an associate’s degree in their careers and start out making MORE than the professors who taught them. As faculty members, it is our responsibility to make Rockford area students highly educated and qualified to enter a four-year institution or to begin work in their chosen career fields. We are proud to do this important work. Note that all Rock Valley College faculty members require at least a Master’s degree, and many have Doctorates. The chart provided puts into perspective RVC professors’ salaries in comparison to Rockford area professionals. Note that RVC professors are at the very bottom of this professional salary scale. Numbers are useful evidence for making and breaking arguments, indeed. When numbers are used to make false claims and consequently affect public opinion and personal lives, the truth is warranted. The truth is necessary. It’s no secret that statistics are a tricky commodity and can be used in various ways to make an argument. However, it’s also no secret that in today’s age of information,

truth can and will be sought. We all see issues differently, but the numbers shared by the RVC Board only tell part of the story. Here, we’ve told you the truth of the story. Think about your family. How would you react to going backward in pay? How have you reacted in the past? You probably stood up for yourself and your family. This is one of those moments for the RVC faculty.

Thankfully, the Protect Our Public Lands Act was introduced in Congress to ban fracking on all federal lands. Tell your representatives to protect these special places from fracking and sign on as a cosponsor. In March, the Obama administration finalized rules regulating fracking on public lands, but failed to declare any areas off limits to this dirty and dangerous practice — including near areas that provide drinking water for millions of Americans and critical habitat for wildlife. The Protect Our Public Lands Act bans fracking on all federal land, protecting these spectacular places. Along with air and water pollution, fracking would degrade these beautiful places with waste pits, pipelines, noisy machinery and thousands of truck trips.

Your Horoscope By Denise Guzzardo Week of Sept. 16-22, 2015

This Week: September 17 finds Saturn firmly placed back into Sagittarius after its little tour back into Scorpio this past summer. For those of you born under the sign of Sagittarius, it’s time to buckle down and utilize the extra muscle power of this planetary influence. You have until December of 2017 to get this right, so hit the pavement running. On the same day, Mercury goes retrograde until October 9. Back up your computers, pay close attention to messages and be cautious driving. Mercury retrograde is not the time to have the old heart-to-heart talk. Emotions run high while the message we’re trying to convey can become lost in translation. Aries (March 21 to April 19) — The week starts out with a bang, when favorable news arrives from a long-distance source. The opportunity to change residence may be available as well. This is a choice not a forced issue, yet it appears to be an incredible opportunity. Give it some serious thought, but remember this isn’t something that needs to be activated right away. The weekend finds you in a sociable mood, willing to participate in the activities extended to you from loved ones. Enjoy Aries! Taurus (April 20 to May 20)— You’re gaining ground with a client or a career opportunity as a result of your diligent effort. You have made some fantastic contacts over the summer months and now you will reap the benefits of your hard work and networking. Romance needs a little TLC. Single Tauruses need to step up their game a bit, while attached Tauruses need a change of scenery. Get out of town, even for a day trip. You won’t regret it Taurus. Gemini (May 21 to June 20) — Unexpected travel may occur before October arrives. You may be a little apprehensive about it. However; this is an opportunity to expand your social sector as well as put a little muscle mass on your resume for future reference. Love options arrive for the single Geminis at this time, enjoy the attention you’re receiving and make sure you look your best.

Cancer (June 21 to July 22) — You may have felt a little crazy these past few weeks but trust me this will resolve itself at this time. All of your fears and concerns will magically melt away by week’s end. When all is said and done you may find that you worked yourself into a frenzy over nothing. Take note for future reference, it’s never over till the fat lady sings, Cancer. Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22) — It may be time to recognize that you really can’t play all of the roles in life that you thought you could. This would be a fine time to focus on your own goals instead of allowing yourself to get neck-deep in other people’s affairs. Practical elements need to be attended to on the home front. This weekend provides you with an excellent opportunity to initiate a romantic connection with substance. Don’t be shy Leo, extend yourself. Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) — Those around you will be more than willing to honor your contributions in life at this time. Receive these salutations gracefully and don’t be shy about it. Admiration should be viewed as a reflection of the soul. Finances arrive midweek with a fantastic pay off. You’re in a productive mindset this week, all aligns favorably by week’s end Virgo . Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) — Romantic aspects may need a re-evaluation period midweek. However; try not to throw the baby out with the bath water too quickly. This is just a temporary setback that can resolve itself with love and patience. If you lose your cool you could cause permanent damage. Family could pile on additional drama this week. Hide in a closet if need be Libra. Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) — Your personal relationships are beginning to shift for the better at this time. You may need to ask a loved one if they need any financial, physical or emotional help this week. They may be too proud to say they are feeling stressed. Midweek you have a financial windfall

arriving. Sometimes by paying it forward financial blessings come full circle Scorpio. Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) — This is a powerful week for you Sagittarius so make hay while the sun shines. The powers that be are more than willing to lend their support if only you would extend yourself enough to allow it to manifest. Many of you have been in a bit of a rut, and may have lost track of your long-term ambitions. Grief or loss may be contributing to this aspect. Force yourself if you must to socialize this week. A love option is right around the corner, Sag. Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) — A long-standing agitation with a client or a coworker will magically come to an end at this time. Instead of focusing on lack, focus on gain. Out with the old and in with the new. You will find an admiration arrive from an unexpected source this week. Visualize this moving into a loving and productive light Capricorn. Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) — Take the edge off your tone and try to be open to a softer demeanor at this time. The fear that you may come across too delicate has actually worked against you in recent months. Put your feelings out there, accept them and receive love from those who are willing to share it with you. Midweek your energy begins to shift for the better. Hang onto this element. Humor is the best medicine Aquarius. Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20) — Focus on the home front first and foremost. So many other individuals may be pulling at your energy source that you may be inadvertently neglecting precious cargo within your own realm. Someone is craving your love and affection. Allow this to fall into place and let friends and family know how much you care Pisces. For an extended astrological forecast or psychic consultation, contact Denise at 815-398-3983.

RAAC kicks off 2015 ArtScene with Scene Peek

By Anne E. O’Keefe

Rockford Area Arts Council

The Rockford Area Arts Council is excited to be kicking off RAAC ArtScene weekend with a celebration of the arts. This year RAAC’s fundraiser is following a new format. Scene Peek is Thursday, October 1 from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at Veterans Memorial Hall, 211 N. Main St. RAAC will celebrate the arts with performances, artwork, appetizers and a cash bar. The goal of the event is to engage with our supporters and have fun. Funds raised from this event will go to support the efforts of RAAC to bring the arts to everyone. Performances will include members of the ArtsPlace teams. Pena Broman, lead artist of the performing arts team, Cha Cha Ephect, will take the stage with a

unique blend of sound, movement, visual, drama and the written word. Meghan Baylor and Isaiah Davis will lead members of the Dance Team. Rebekah Smith, of Keith Country Day School, was this year’s Mayor’s Arts Award recipient and will be performing as well. Smith is a worthy recipient as she excels in visual arts, choir and theater. We know the power the arts have when transforming a community and RAAC and Transform Rockford want to hear your ideas. There will be boards in the lobby of Veterans Memorial Hall where you can tell us your thoughts on the subject and what inspires you. “The arts are such an important part of any vibrant community. The Rockford Area Arts Council’s, Spring and Fall ArtScenes, are a wonderful example of the artistic talent we have in our region. RAAC

ArtScene has become a “favorite” transforming event in our community for people to gather and experience how art can inspire and connect us; a true example of diverse forms of creative expression,” said Patrick O’Keefe, Transform Rockford. Attendees will also have a chance to paint a CD for our “Off the Chain Link,” project. The CD mural is underway on Madison street and we would love for you to be a contributing artist to our own “Scene Peek Tree,” which will be added to the existing work over ArtScene weekend. CNVR (Conveyer), 317 W. Jefferson, is mounting “MEANINGLESS Art Show,” to encourage everyone to create a piece of art, to overcome their fear of facing the proverbial blank canvas. Pablo Korona is accepting submissions through September 30 and work will be up for Scene Peek,

at CNVR from 6 to 8 p.m. Work can include photography, sculpture, repurposed objects, whatever your imagination leads you to create. The space will also include work by Dave Decastris, Joe Downey, Paul Dyer, Jeremy Klonicki and Pablo Korona. The green space in front of 304 North Main, adjacent to CNVR will also be transformed into an interactive creative space where you can write on the “Before I die,” wall. Scene Peek tickets are $30 for members and $40 for non-members . Join the fun and support RAAC. To order your tickets and for a complete listing of ArtScene venues go to artsforeveryone.com, or call 815-963-6765.

Community artists a theraputic option for older adults

By Marti Franz

Exec. Dir. The Music Academy in Rockford

Artists who work in community settings, including those who work with older adults, inevitably find that art-making offers therapeutic benefits to those who engage in it. In describing this, choreographer and MacArthur Fellow Liz Lerman said: “Sometimes art achieves what therapy, medicine, or the best care of health professionals cannot. Sometimes art even achieves something that’s beyond the best intentions of the artist. These moments can feel like little miracles when they happen, but they are usually instances of art functioning as it normally does: inspiring motivation, engaging parts of people’s bodies or brains that they haven’t been using, or allowing them to transcend their environments for a little while.” Artists like Liz Lerman believe that art can have its most beneficial effect when its intention is good art-making. They employ a rigorous artistic process, trust that individuals can produce meaningful work, and use that confidence as a lever to lift people above their circumstances or self-imposed limitations. A study co-funded by the NEA, the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), and other sponsors measured the impact of a professionally conducted choral program on the physical health, mental health, and social functioning of older adults. The intervention group reported better overall physical health, fewer doctor visits, less medication use, fewer instances of falls, and fewer health problems in relation to the comparison group. Similarly, the comparison group had a significant decline in total number of activities, whereas the intervention group reported a trend toward increased activity. The intent of arts and aging programs is to accomplish one or more of the following outcome goals—all aimed at enhancing quality of life—while engaging older adults in arts-based programming:

nOlder adults have a sense of control and feel empowered (i.e., mastery).

nOlder adults are socially engaged. nOlder adults exercise their bodies and brains to ensure high physical and mental function. nOlder adults are healthy, with reduced risk factors for disease and disability. nOlder adults have a positive attitude and zest for life. nOlder adults express themselves creatively.

Research shows that these outcome goals are interrelated. Combined, they contribute to a positive quality of life for older adults. Here is the big picture: People are living longer and healthier lives. Demographics are changing and by 2030 will shift to over 70 million people over the age of 65 and the number of people over 85 doubling. The good news is that organizations like The Music Academy in Rockford are a part of a movement creating aging friendly cities that are “great places to grow and to grow old.” We recognize and celebrate that older people bring a lifetime of interest and experience. We recognize they have great interest in returning to or starting new arts involvement. The arts are not “crafts for seniors.” How do we make our community better at providing for mental, emotional and physical health by extending or participating in arts education? Creativity allows us to re-imagine the second half of life in ways that are richer and more purposeful. Creativity allows for personal and social renewal. As our culture witnesses dramatic changes in attitudes related to aging, community capabilities and sustainability, we are poised with expertise and leadership in this field. Encore, our creative aging curriculum, was developed collaboratively with the National Council for Creative Aging (NCCA). Our teaching artists have undergone training and are certified by NCCA. As an established provider of community-based arts and learning programs, now celebrating our first 30 years, The Music Academy will continue to unlock the creative potential of participants and

increase the health and vitality of individuals and community. John Feather, CEO of Grantmakers in Aging says: ”Now is the time to be part of the process, part of the solution: the beyond bingo generation is here.” We at The Music Academy have developed music, movement and integrated arts curriculum that is of high-quality, comprehensive and affordable. We begin September 14 to deliver that curriculum at Lincolnshire Place in Loves Park. We look forward to expanding this program and offering best practice arts education for aging populations throughout our community. As Gene Cohen says, “Creativity is chocolate for the brain.” Let’s get creative and make our community better at caring for our ever increasing aging population; it could be as addictive as chocolate! The Music Academy is a not-for-profit community school of music dedicated to providing high quality, affordable instruction and performance opportunities to Academy students, regardless of age or ability. Its mission is to inspire a lifelong love of music and the arts in its students. The Music Academy is celebrating 30 years.

Get your weather forecast sprinkled with a bit of climate science

By Katie Valentine ThinkProgress.org

t’s common knowledge that weather and climate aren’t the same thing. Weather is short-term fluctuations in precipitation, humidity, and temperature, while climate is long-term atmospheric behavior. Typically, climate trends aren’t mentioned in meteorological forecasts — until now. WXshift, a new website from Climate Central, allows users to get weather forecasts and see longterm regional climate trends at the same time. Users can select their state, city, or zip code, and then explore short-term weather predictions and long-term temperature and precipitation trends in the location. Richard Wiles, senior vice president for program strategy and integration for Climate Central, thought of the idea for WXshift about three years ago. To him, the idea of giving people climate data with their weather forecast just seemed obvious. “Weather is how people experience climate,” he told ThinkProgress. The weather forecast, he said, is “the easiest, simplest way to get the facts on climate change to the broadest audience. Everybody cares about the weather … and climate is the future of weather.” The website, which pulls from 100 years of U.S. temperature data from more than 2,000 weather stations, also lays out ten “climate indicators,”

The Rockford-area forecast on WXshift, including unique climate analysis information.

including extreme heat, ocean acidification, sea level rise, and El Niño. Each indicator has facts on how it contributes to climate change, or how climate change contributes to it — the site explains, for instance, how El Niño contributes to elevated temperatures, and also how climate change could increase the likelihood of extreme El Niños and La Niña events. These climate indicators “take climate change and present this bulletproof argument,” Wiles said.

“If you look at all of those, you come out with one conclusion. There’s no way around it when you’re done with those ten. But Wiles said allowing people to see how climate change has affected their cities and states over time may present even more compelling data on the planet’s warming trend. “It’s really hard to argue with a local temperature trend that shows that summers are warming or winters are warming,” he said. “It strips away all the

political baggage that tends to be attached to climate change, and just gives people the information in a way you’re more likely to accept it.” This isn’t Climate Central’s first foray into making the link between weather events and long-term climate trends. The organization has been working to advise television meteorologists on the link between weather and climate since 2012 — historically, meteorologists as a group have been known more for their climate skepticism than their willingness to tie climate change trends into their 10-day forecasts. But according to an April study, climate denial among meteorologists may be fading. Climate Central is planning to design an app to go along with the website soon, and Wiles said they’re also looking into adding new features to the website — little things like seeing what the high temperature was on your birthday in a given year. The site is also open to partnerships with other companies and organizations as a way of ensuring that more weather sites start delivering climate information. “We want to transform the way people get their weather forever,” Wiles said, “because there’s no going back. [Climate change] is the biggest problem we have.” Check out WXshift.com for more. You can always find your local TRRT AccuWeather forecast at rockrivertimes.com/accuweather.

Do you have health issues due to high estrogen? By Julia Michniewicz, N.D. I have been in practice for 33 years and the number-1 issue that I see over and over again in my practice is too high of estrogen in body. 16 years ago I found out that I had breast cancer and because of my belief system I personally could not do the chemical therapy and radiation. My breast cancer was estrogen fed so I started working with a medical doctor in CA who has educated me on how to tell estrogen dominance through fingernail and tongue analysis. I can actually see high estrogen through this analysis. As you age and you become overweight and have belly fat, this is an estrogen dominance. You exercise and this belly fat just does not go away. This is excess estrogen. You need to reduce the estrogen to lose that belly fat.

Estrogen is a natural hormone but we are getting bombarded with estrogen from pesticides and plastics especially if you put plastic containers in a microwave. So many young men are having testicular cancer and prostate issues along with young women with breast cancer, fibroid breast, uterine fibroid and ovarian cysts. The liver has to filter this excess estrogen out of our bodies along with everything that we eat we drink and we put on our skin. If you feel that your weight issue or health issues are due to an estrogen dominance, please feel free to call 815-962-3326 to make an appointment. Julia Michniewicz is a Naturopathic Doctor who is celebrating her 16th year cancer free. Like us on Facebook at Julia’s Place.

Payment to state employees’ medical providers may stop By Mark Fitton Illlinois News Network

SPRINGFIELD — It’s cash up-front for many state employees needing medical services, or it likely soon will be. The state’s Department of Central Management Services, a branch of the Rauner administration, has notified state employees it soon may not be able to pay medical providers. “All healthcare services will continue to be paid as long as possible,” CMS Director Tom Tyrell told state employees in a memo dated Sept. 9. “However, in the near future, we will no longer have the legal authority to pay healthcare vendors for their services.” CMS acknowledged that some providers in the state’s self-insured plans, such as Cigna and HealthLink, already may have begun asking state employees for cash at the time of service. In the case of medical providers, the provider will reimburse the employee once the provider gets paid, the memo said. For dental claims, Delta Dental will file the claim on behalf of the employee, and the plan will reimburse the member. Tyrell cited the lack of fiscal year 2016 state budget as the reason. “As you are likely aware, no budget has been enacted for fiscal year 2016, which began on July 1, 2015,” he wrote. “The lack of state budget has put Department of Central Management Services in unchartered territory with respect to funding critical state services, including healthcare services for all plan participants enrolled in the State Employee Group Insurance Plan,” Tyrell said. The memo, which was posted to a state website, surprised Council 31 of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, a spokesman told the State Journal-Register in Springfield. “We will do everything possible to correct it,” said Anders Lindall of AFSMCE, who called the news “disturbing” and “further evidence our state is breaking down.” The governor’s office referred questions to CMS. CMS spokeswoman Meredith Kranz said all applicable funding from fiscal year 2015 has been exhausted. “Until the General Assembly passes a balanced budget for FY16, there is nothing else the administration can do to continue to pay healthcare providers. Without a budget in place, there is no mechanism to generate adequate revenue for the healthcare fund or pay expenditures,” Krantz said in a Monday afternoon email to Illinois News

Network. The Illinois Hospital Association said it found the news disturbing. “Illinois hospitals are deeply concerned that the failure of the state to pay for health care services provided to state employees, as well as the 3 million Illinoisans insured by Medicaid, will soon start to jeopardize access to health care for patients and communities throughout Illinois,” spokesman Danny Chun said in a prepared statement. He said hospitals and other critical care providers could “be forced to reduce services, lay off staff, delay paying vendors, and even close, because of the state’s failure to pay its bills on time.” Chun said the association urges “the governor and the General Assembly to find common ground on the state budget so all Illinoisans will continue to have access to needed health care services.” Rep. Mike Smiddy, D-Hillsdale, on Monday said he’d read of the CMS memo and the news struck him as a reminder the state needs not only a fair resolution to the budget impasse, but a fair new contract for thousands of state employees. “Honestly, I think this puts the governor in a bad light,” Smiddy said. “The courts have already held that the employees should be paid and, at least to my mind, that would include paying for medical services.” The state’s contract with AFSCME, which represents some 35,000 state employees, expired at the end of June. Despite related battles in the courts and Legislature, the two sides of have promised to continue talking without threat of strike or lockout. At the same time, the first-year Republican governor and legislative Democrats remain locked in a budget impasse with the state now more than 75 days into fiscal year 2016. Sen. Matt Murphy of Palatine, deputy Republican leader in the Senate, said the onus for a fair budget deal also is definitely on Democrats, particularly House Speaker Michael Madigan of Chicago. “Hey, everybody wants to have a revolution, but sometimes when two people can’t get along, it really is just one of them,” Murphy said. “I’ve watched the governor come halfway more than once with the speaker, and I don’t think the people of Illinois elected Bruce Rauner to totally capitulate.”

Why the Pope’s US visit has conservatives in a huff

By Brian Porter-Szücs University of Michigan

uring Pope Francis’ visit to the United States next week, he will insist that the church transcends partisan politics, and I’m sure he means this sincerely. But that won’t prevent his visit from having political ramifications. For several decades, the Roman Catholic Church in the U.S. has drawn closer and closer to the Republican Party, mostly because of their shared opposition to abortion. Catholics have always bristled at the charge that their religion was subsumed by this one issue, and Pope Francis is committed to reminding the world that the church cares about more than just sex and reproduction. He isn’t about to revise the church’s basic teachings on these matters, but he fervently wants to change the topic of conversation. This presents a major problem for the GOP, because on nearly every other public issue it is starkly at odds with Catholic teachings. And not because Pope Francis is too liberal. Rather, it’s because he’s too conservative on an issue that serves as a cornerstone of the Republican Party: free-market capitalism. This is one of the issues, along with climate change, that the pope has focused on in recent months. In July, for example, he called unbridled ffordable Senior Apartments capitalism the “dung of the devil.” While to Amer-

w Accepting Applications

ican ears this may sound liberal, it’s actually a very conservative viewpoint. And unfortunately for Republicans, this is likely going to be a topic he’ll bring up during his speech before Congress. Some in the American press have characterized Pope Francis as more “liberal” than his predecessors. This is a serious misunderstanding. Of all the possible adjectives we might use to describe the pontiff, “liberal” is definitely not among them. We Americans tend to forget that the liberal tradition is based on a twofold commitment to both individual liberty (for example, on questions of personal lifestyle) and free-market capitalism. Liberal U.S. Democrats may want to soften the edges of capitalism with regulation, but they don’t want to overthrow capitalism altogether. The leadership of the Catholic Church, in contrast, has never reconciled itself with liberalism. Back in 1864, Pope Pius IX denounced anyone who would even suggest that “the Roman pontiff can, and ought to, reconcile himself and come to terms with progress, liberalism and modern civilization.” Since then, the church has softened its stance on “progress” and “modern civilization,” but liberalism remains a problem. As Popes John Paul II and Benedict XIV made clear, this rejection of liberalism entails constraints

The Catholic Church’s type of conservatism opposes financiers who place the pursuit of profit over the needs of maintaining a peaceful, stable community. And above all, this type of conservatism will condemn anyone whose private greed harms the public good. This isn’t socialism. Catholic teaching can be easily reconciled with hierarchies and inequality, as long as justice is served and social harmony is maintained. Catholicism is a problem for American politicians (Democrats and Republicans alike), but not because the church offers some sort of mixture of left and right, liberalism and conservatism. The church is consistently conservative, and this challenges Democrats (who promote individualism, innovation and disruption in the cultural realm) and Republicans (who favor individualism, innovation, and disruption in the economic realm). During the pope’s visit, therefore, he is likely to make every American politician squirm. The Democrats have grown accustomed to this in recent decades (some priests have refused prominent liberal Catholics communion over the abortion issue). Now it’s the Republicans’ turn. But in this case, it’s about the roots of our economic system. TheConversation.com

on individual liberty in the areas of sexuality, reproduction and marriage. Now Pope Francis is reminding us of the other side of this anti-liberalism: a rejection of capitalism. Just as people are not free to conduct their sexual lives as they see fit, neither are they free to do whatever they want in the economic sphere. In this sense, Francis is a consistent conservative – even more conservative than the Republicans who are nervous about his upcoming visit. Many Americans, who tend to associate capitalism with the right and anti-capitalism with the left, are unaware that many of the earliest attacks on laissez faire economics came from conservatives, and that the Catholic Church has been a key player in developing a conservative rebuttal to liberal capitalism. Catholic conservatives like Francis want to conserve harmonious social relations and a Christian understanding of economic justice, just as they want to conserve what the church takes to be traditional family values. Free market capitalism, in contrast, is all about change: the change that comes when massive retail chains undermines family shops, when agribusinesses destroy small farms, when financial consultants “downsize” a corporation and wipe out a community’s economic foundation.

Law aims to stop golden parachutes

Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner on Sept. 10 signed legislationmakingtaxpayer-fundedseveranceagreements more transparent. His action comes on the heels of public outcry in the wake of College of DuPage President Robert Breuder receiving a $763,000 severance package in exchange for retiring early. The new law subjects all severance agreements funded entirely or partially by public dollars to the Freedom of Information Act, or FOIA. Controversy surrounding Breuder involved an accounting scheme used to hide millions of dollars in spending, including payments to businesses connected to college leadership, satellite phones used for Breuder’s exotic hunting trips, his membership to a private shooting club and nearly a quarter of a million dollars in booze listed on ledger lines as “instructional supplies.” The Chicago Tribune revealed Breuder and college leadership charged taxpayers nearly $190,000 in dining fees at the college’s high-end restaurant, Waterleaf, since 2011. This was not the only piece of legislation emerging from the Breuder controversy, nor is it the only reform that should be made. An even stronger taxpayer-protection bill aimed at community college presidents also sits on the governor’s desk. It would cap severance payments at one year’s salary and benefits and limit standard contracts to four years. More importantly, it would also require public notice and approval of any new, amended or

renewed employment deals. The College of DuPage board repeatedly gave Breuder contract extensions and additional perks without public notice over the last six years, according to the Tribune.

Heroin Crisis Act first step to battle epidemic

Supporters of the override to the governor’s amendatory veto of the Heroin Crisis Act say more can be done to head off a growing problem. Republican State Senator Sue Rezin says there’s a spike in heroin across the country and the state. Rezin says the Heroin Crisis Act will produce big savings by investing medicaid dollars upfront. “We feel that by spending and investing on the front end with addiction treatment that we will curb the visits to the E.R.. We believe that for every dollar that we spend we’ll save $12.” Meanwhile John Callahan with the Grundy County coroner’s office says the number of heroin overdoses has almost doubled in the first nine months of this year over numbers from previous years in Grundy County. Though he says House Bill 1 is a good step forward, Callahan says the Heroin Crisis Act is a temporary patch and more needs to be done. “To me it’s like having a flat tire. We get it patched but you can only patch a tire so many times and we need a new tire.” –Wire reports

Mr. Green Car

Cruze a suitable sedan option in the electric field

By Allen Penticoff Contributor

recently took a friend’s 2013 Chevy Cruze LT (with only 11,000 miles) for a test drive during a little road trip from Freeport to Forreston for a breakfast outing. He’s had the car since new, in fact having hunted down the exact features he was looking for and finding this car in Indiana. But when he learned he paid as much for his Cruze as I did our used Volt – he said, “I coulda had a Volt” (he’s a retired GM Mr. Goodwrench with Volt certification). But he is quite happy with the Cruze and its fuel economy generated by the 1.4 liter turbocharged engine. Each manufacturer has some “eco” name for the use of turbochargers with small displacement engines. In Chevrolet’s case, they call it ECOTEC. It works the same for all – basically a small displacement engine can be made to have the horsepower needed for acceleration and passing, while sipping fuel at steady highway speeds or puttering about town. The Cruze and Volt share some body components, but they don’t look much alike, inside or out. The Cruze is a bit roomier inside and thus more comfortable. I found the knee room in the Cruze considerably better than in my own Volt. My friend finds his right knee bumps the cabin temperature knob and changes it – I did not have that experience. The seats are equally firm and the ride is similarly taut. Instrumentation in the Cruze is a mix of both analog gauges and digital. The tachometer is analog, while the speedometer is both an analog (needle) gauge and a digital display in the center between the two. I, like my friend, found the digital speed display to be the one I relied on for speed

information as the other is somewhat hidden by the steering wheel. The digital info includes odometer, instant mpg, and fuel range read outs. The instant mpg read out was a bit useless on our drive with much hill climbing and coasting. I saw two mpg while accelerating hard uphill, and 100 mpg coasting down one. But it seemed to settle on about 40 mpg while cruising at 60 mph. I find the “upside down” analog fuel and temperature gauges odd – requiring a bit more thought to read than necessary. The Cruze has the usual buttons and screen on the center console for infotainment, and like all newer Chevrolets, has 4G wireless WiFi via OnStar available. The little engine did not lug up hills even with the cruise set at 60. There is some buzz from the engine as one would expect with a small car with a small four-cylinder engine revving hard. The

six-speed automatic transmission has a manual select mode – so I ran it very hard through the gears, finding the shift point it liked was at the 6,000 rpm redline – dropping back to only 4,500 rpm with the next gear up selected. Zing, zing, zing it goes as the turbocharger is working its magic at these kind of rpm. However, when downshifting to slow down – the small 1.4 liter displacement shows its nature – there is no significant reduction in speed with downshifting – the engine revs up, but you just keep rolling along. Expect to coast a ways or use the brakes to slow down. This will help with fuel economy though – coasting at speed uses essentially no fuel while still covering ground – that’s where that 100 mpg comes from on the display. Warning – boring stuff ahead: The Cruze has three engine options with two transmission options (both six-speed). For 2016

holding a three-point lead. The Packers wasted no time tilting the score after the break, as Rodgers hooked up with Jones for their second touchdown of the day just three minutes into the third quarter. Jones finished the day with 51 yards on 4 catches just days after returning to Green Bay after a season with Oakland, putting some minds at ease after the loss of top receiver Jordy Nelson in the preseason. Another Gould field goal would close the curtains on third quarter scoring, as the Packers would run nearly ten minutes off the clock with a 16-play drive resulting, not terribly shockingly, with Rodgers once again hitting the end zone, this time to Randall Cobb. In one of the defining series of the game, Chicago would have a chance to shorten the distance with the ball on the Green Bay 6 and a fresh set of downs. However, despite a solid day from the new-look

back to level the game. The Pirates erased a first inning Chris Coghlan sac fly with 3 runs of their own before adding another in the third. The bats came to life in the seventh and aided by a pair of Joakim Soria wild pitches were able to tie the game at 4 apiece. But a Starling Marte sac fly off Justin Grimm was enough to see the Pirates through. The Cubs won Game 2 on the back of a Jon Lester complete game. The left-hander allowed just 1 earned-run, striking out nine. Anthony Rizzo and Dexter Fowler had RBIs as the Cubs closed the gap on the Wild Card leaders to 4 games and 6.5 back of the Cardinals. Wednesday’s matchup sees Jake Arrieta take the mound for the Northsiders in an attempt to become this season’s first 20-game winner. Both Chicago and Pittsburgh have set up their starting rotations for the play-in game, as Arrieta was tabbed for the honor by the Cubs while the Pirates line up to send their ace, right-hander Gerrit Cole, out for the must-win game. Arrieta is coming off yet another magnificent start in the opener of last Friday’s doubleheader against the Philadelphia Phillies, having given up

offensive line and Forte running with a purpose, the Bears never ran the ball and ended up with no return after forgoing the field goal opportunity for a shot at six points that did not materialize. A Lacy touchdown gave the Packers a 15-point lead with just under two minutes left in the game, seemingly fait accompli. However, a game Bears offense moved down the field in haste as Cutler hit Alshon Jeffery twice before finding Martellus Bennett in the end zone for his first passing touchdown of the game to go with his 24th career interception against the Packers. Robbie Gould’s last minute onside kick attempt looked to make for a dramatic finish, but Davante Adams’s clean handling turned the lights on the game. The Bears hope to take the positive performance by the offensive line and Forte and another week of healing for a banged up receiving staff (Jeffery, Eddie Royal and Marquess Wilson all came off the injury report to pitch in against the Packers) into this Sunday’s noon home matchup against the Arizona Cardinals (1-0). just one run on six hits and striking out seven in his 16th straight quality start. Friday’s doubleheader sweep not only featured the pitching prowess of Arrieta in the game one win, but the continuing offensive dominance of the team’s rookies, as Kris Bryant hit his 24th home run and Kyle Schwarber went deep twice after missing most of the prior ten days with a rib injury. Over the weekend, however, the Phillies bounced back to take two straight, leaving the series at a 2-2 split. Besides solidifying their playoff chances, the Cubs individually continue to make their argument for postseason awards. The arguments for Arrieta in the National League Cy Young Award race and Bryant for Rookie of the Year have been well documented in these pages, but the strongest candidate for a trophy might be manager Joe Maddon, who has taken the team to a level that few were expecting before 2016 at the earliest. After the visit to Pittsburgh, the Cubs return home on Friday to host the St. Louis Cardinals, from whom they took two out of three at Busch Stadium last week, and the Milwaukee Brewers before the rematch with the Pirates. While the split with the lowly Phillies hurt the team’s momentum coming out of a successful trip to St. Louis, a strong stretch against their NL Central foes would put them right back on track.

United rise to see off ‘Pool; Chelsea fall again By Alan Clark

champions were awarded a penalty and Muller duly stepped up to the plate and fired home to give them all three points. Thomas Tuchel’s Dortmund recovered from a goal down also to see off Hannover 96 4-2 and go top of the table on goal difference. Two penalties from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, as well as a Henrikh Mkhitaryan strike and a Felipe own goal sent the BVB faithful home happy as the Bundesliga title race continued to get off to a blistering start.

Manchester United got back to winning ways as they defeated Liverpool 3-1 in the English Premier League at Old Trafford. Louis van Gaal’s side dominated the first half without penetrating the Pool rearguard, but made the breakthrough just after the interval through Daley Blind. Ander Herrera slotted home a penalty to extend the Red Devils’ lead and the game got interesting again when Christian Benteke struck a sublime over head kick to reduce the arrears. Hope for the away side soon vanished though, as two minutes later 19-year-old Anthony Martial made his first appearance as a United player in sensational fashion. The $55.4 million signing from AS Monaco took the ball past two Liverpool defenders before finishing with ease into the back of the net. Chelsea suffered their third loss in the opening five league games as a Steven Naismith-inspired Everton humbled them at Goodison Park on Saturday. After coming on as a ninth-minute substitute, the Scotland forward grabbed a quick-fire double to stun Jose Mourinho’s side. Nemanja Matic pulled one back for the Blues but it wasn’t enough to mount a comeback, as Naismith completed his hat-trick late on to become the first to notch a treble against a Mourinho-managed Chelsea. Elsewhere, Manchester City maintained their perfect start with a 1-0 away victory at Crystal Palace, thanks to a solitary goal from Kelechi Iheanacho in the dying minutes of the encounter - while goals in either half from Theo Walcott and Olivier Giroud gave Arsenal a 2-0 win over Stoke at the Emirates.

Barca edge Atletico, Ronaldo hits 5 for Real

Lionel Messi scored the winner as Barcelona bagged a hard-fought victory away to Atletico Madrid to go top of La Liga by two points. Fernando Torres gave the hosts an early second half lead that was quickly cancelled out by Neymar’s equaliser. Messi, who started as a substitute after missing training on Friday due to the birth of his second son, silenced the Vicente Calderon with a low finish with 13 minutes left on the clock. Anything Barca can do, Real can do better? Sometimes, but the weekend past it was certainly the case, as Rafa Benitez oversaw a 6-0 thumping of Espanyol. Cristiano Ronaldo pulled no punches as he became Real’s all-time goalscorer in the league with five goals -

including a treble in the first 20 minutes of the match. Karim Benzema was the other scorer on a perfect day for the Spanish giants, who trail Barca by two after three league games so far this season. Germany

Bayern, BVB still flawless

Thomas Muller’s last-minute penalty rescued Bayern Munich and maintained their perfect start to their title defence - but Borussia Dortmund remain top as they also kept their perfect record. FC Augsburg were on cloud nine when Alexander Esswein put them in front shortly before the break and even though it took a while, Bayern were back on level terms after 77 minutes through hitman Robert Lewandowski. In the dying embers at the Allianz Arena, the

Juventus drew at home to Chievo as they remain winless in their Serie A title defence – sitting in 16th position in the table. It could have been even worse than dropping two points for the Turin club, as the away side opened the scoring after just five minutes of play. A penalty from Paulo Dybala with seven minutes remaining rescued a point for Juve, who registered their first point of the league campaign. Inter Milan pipped city rivals AC Milan to all three points at the San Siro as they went top of the table with a 100 percent start. Fredy Guarin was assisted by Davide Santon in the early stages of the second half to send the black and blue half of Milan wild - and they will be praying their side can maintain the start they have produced to make up for somewhat barren years for the Inter legions.

VENTURA

From Back Cover

age began catching up with Detroit’s core. After years of trading prospects and sacrificing first round picks in a very legitimate World Series push, the Tigers had almost zero internal depth and had basically punched themselves out. I admit, I don’t follow Ausmus’ in-game management all that much. He has generally had set-it-and-forget-it lineups and a bullpen devoid of talent, so it’s not like he had a ton of choices to make. I have not heard of any tension in the Tigers’ clubhouse, nor have I seen any problematic quotes from Ausmus. I don’t recall Tigers Twitter going bonkers over excessive bunting or getting caught stealing. For all that I think it’s facile to excuse everything a manager does by saying, “Well it’s the players’ fault” — as you will see below — I fail to see what Ausmus did wrong here. Perhaps the Tigers simply want to be able to tell whomever they hire to replace Dave Dombrowski as permanent GM that they can pick their manager. Seems like a good enough reason, but if that’s the only reason that’s hardly the type of thing that necessitates rumors and internal meetings and gossip such that a leak would occur. Regardless, all of this is fascinating to me as it would be a jarring setback for the new wave of managers of which Ventura is a member — former players with zero managerial experience. Ausmus is another, alongside recently terminated Mike Redmond and Mike Matheny in St. Louis. Like I said — Ventura is a bit of an outlier even in that group not being a former plus-defense catcher. Walt Weiss is another recent addition in this crew (not a catcher!) but Colorado is not exactly a model franchise, nor should their decision making be emulated. Regardless, it would seem that Detroit has decided to dump Ausmus in half the time it has taken the White Sox, even if Chicago parts ways with Ventura this offseason. I have been a rather vocal critic of Ventura. It’s been an odd and painful transition going from Huge Fan of Robin Ventura the Player to Miserable Critic of Robin Ventura the Manager, but here we are. Up front, I want to say that Ventura is not without his positive traits. To his credit, the players seem to love playing for him. Despite the fact that 2015 has turned into a grim death march of disappointment and embarrassment, the players are still smiling and coming up with fun celebrations. That’s

Brad Ausmus is all but out the door in Detroit, though many around the league expect him to land another manger job soon. Keith Allison

great, and the longer I work a demanding job the more I understand the emphasis placed on a happy work environment. Ventura is constantly calm and poised, no matter what happens on the field. That said, Ventura has seemed massively overmatched by the challenges of managing since he began. This proved a disaster in 2012 as his in-game tactics, I believe, cost the White Sox enough close games down the stretch to lose them a playoff berth. Robin’s primary defense since that season has been, “Well, he hasn’t had anything to work with.” I am inclined to agree that pretty much nothing Robin could have done in 2013-2015 would have changed the rosters he had into playoff contenders. That said, that doesn’t mean that he couldn’t do damage. In July and August of 2013, with the outcome of the season already clear, that didn’t stop Ventura from leaning so hard on Nate Jones and Addison Reed that the former was injured the next season and Addison Reed has never quite been effective ever since. In addition, Ventura has proven to lack any intuitive sense of strategy and needs to be burned several times before he learns if he ever learns at all. Despite having a top notch pitching staff and playing in the American League, the White Sox are 12th in the majors in IBBs — third in the AL. In 2014, Ventura ordered the sixth most IBBs in the majors (third in the AL again. IBBs are infinitely more defensible in the National League where pitchers hit

badly enough that it often makes sense to walk the guy ahead of them. ) Robin has also struggled with figuring out when to issue replay challenges and in constructing lineups. I appreciate that he doesn’t have a lot of functional bats, but it has been demonstrated that you should hit your best bat second in the order. This isn’t very complicated — you want your best hitters to hit more often. Sometimes Ventura seems to understand this — randomly, and fitfully putting Abreu second from time to time. Other times he doesn’t, running the sub-.600 OPS of Tyler Saladino in second, with no discernible basis for doing so. Then there are the intangible things that all, in some way or another, fall at Ventura’s feet. Despite being a largely veteran team that has increasingly attempted to stock its lineup with speed, the White Sox have been an atrocious base running team this season. They’ve also been prone to long losing streaks and completely crumble whenever the opportunity arises to save their season. See, e.g., the week after the trade deadline. They have also shown a proclivity to allow a divisional opponent (or two) to completely dominate them for a given season. I suppose that’s an old organizational trait but at least when it came to the Twins of the early 2000s that could be chalked up to an inherent stylistic matchup problem (e.g. Twins had tons of contact hitters who played good defense in a really gimmicky park which played well against

a White Sox team that deployed bad defenses and relied on strikeout pitchers). In 2013, the Indians went 17-2 against the White Sox. This year, the team has gone 6-12 (with a minus 44 run differential) against the Twins, but now no longer have any obvious reason to explain it. Flip that around and it’s the White Sox who are one game out of the Wild Card, not the Twins. In Jonah Keri’s excellent Up, Up, and Away, I was struck by his lengthy descriptions of how Jerry Manuel was instrumental in player development. It’s hard to prove causation with things like that, but the White Sox did excel in producing impact bats internally while Manuel as at the helm. Ventura’s tenure has been similar to Guillen’s in the sense that White Sox position players almost uniformly underperform. Sure, it’s unsurprising when old, strikeout prone players like Adam Dunn or Adam LaRoche crater, or when marginal talents like Emilio Bonifacio or Tyler Saladino are complete zeros with the bat. But the fact remains that the offense has been so bad for so long that Baseball Reference now thinks that U.S. Cellular Field is a pitcher’s park of a magnitude rivaling PetCo or SafeCo. Mind you, this isn’t all on Ventura, but it’s yet another aspect of his job where you could possibly find an intangible in his favor, and instead find yet another element utterly lacking. At this point, the only thing we can see that Ventura does well is keep the players happy. If that doesn’t translate to performance, I think that diminishes the value you can attribute to that. Besides, it’s not like we have to accept that this is a zero sum game. It is possible to find someone who keeps people happy AND has a positive impact on performance AND is a decent tactical manager. It’s also hard to find those if you seek out inexperienced managers without a credible interview process, such as the “search” the White Sox employed after the 2011 season. Manager is one of the easiest places to make changes to your personnel, certainly from a financial and contractual perspective. Ventura hasn’t been given a ton of talent, but he hasn’t demonstrated any ability to get the most out of it. If you can improve something about your team, you should do it. There are good managerial candidates out there, and the White Sox should actually make a sincere effort to hire one. TheCatbirdSeatBlog.com is part of ESPN’s MLB network of sites.

NFL Week 1

Ausmus may be gone, but what about Robin? Positive signs as

By Nick Schaefer The Catbird Seat

oward the end of this past week we began hearing rumors that the Tigers had decided to fire manager Brad Ausmus at the end of the season. The conversation has largely centered around whether the rumor is correct and the rather ugly optics of forcing Ausmus to manage the last few weeks of the season when he knows he’s about to get fired. I want to discuss how it applies to the White Sox. Brad Ausmus did not have any managerial experience when he was hired by Detroit. His resume entirely consisted of being a former player — much like Robin Ventura. Unlike Ventura,

Bears stumble against Pack

Ausmus had been pegged as a future manager rather prominently at the end of his playing career. Sure, a lot of that has to do with him being a long-tenured nobat-great-fielding catcher — a classic managerial profile — but it was in stark contrast with Ventura’s, “I had never considered managing” posture. Ausmus inherited a readymade World Series contender in his debut in 2014 and sure enough the expensive, veteran Tigers won their fourth AL Central in a row as expected. 2015, as we are all aware, has not gone so well. As some — myself included — had predicted, See VENTURA on Page 46

ith 18 games left in the regular season, the five remaining with the Pittsburgh Pirates loom as the largest on the schedule for the Chicago Cubs. Between a four-game series in Pittsburgh that started with a Tuesday doubleheader and a return trip to the Friendly Confines for a three-game set, the two teams will be very familiar by the time the October 7 National League Wild Card game comes along.

spot and finished with the Cubs having taken over, these seven games give Chicago the opportunity to position themselves for a one-game play-in at home rather than at Pittsburgh’s PNC Park, which would be the case if the season ended today. The Pirates came into this week’s series with a four-game lead over the Cubs and the best record in the Major Leagues since May 9, while the Cubs have already secured a record over .500 after five straight losing seasons. Game 1 of Tuesday’s double-dip saw the Cubs lose 5-4 after clawing See CUBS on Page 43

For most Bears fans, it’s hard to look at Sunday’s game against the Green Bay Packers as a point of positivity, a series of learning moments in front of an often lopsided scoreboard. The 10th loss for Chicago in the last twelve meetings of the longtime rivals was full of frustration, but not a call to write off the season. The 31-23 loss at Soldier Field started off on a good note, seeing the Bears ride the opening possession to a 11-play, 70-yard drive that resulted in a Robbie Gould field goal that gave the home team an early 3-0 lead. A quick three-and-out forced by the Bears defense got the excitement mounting, but the next Chicago drive ended quickly with an apparent Jay Cutler fumble, later overturned on review. Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers then teamed up with running back Eddie Lacy to take the ball straight down the field, capping a 10-play, 64-yard drive with the first of two touchdown receptions on the day by the returning James Jones. The Bears would answer on their next possession with a 1-yard touchdown by Matt Forte, who enjoyed his best rushing performance in nearly four seasons with 141 yards on 24 carries and the second quarter score. Matching field goals by Robbie Gould and Mason Crosby took the teams into the locker rooms at halftime with Chicago See BEARS on Page 43
