The Dog Ate My Vote How Congress explains its absences

By Derek Willis & Cecilia Reyes ProPublica

On a Monday afternoon in October 2011, West Virginia Democrat Nick J. Rahall II waited at the Charleston airport for a 4:50 p.m. U.S. Airways Express flight to Washington. If the plane left on schedule, the roughly 80-minute flight would allow him to get to the Capitol in time for votes in the House of Representatives that evening.

Things did not go according to plan. The flight didn’t leave Charleston for another four hours, giving Rahall, then the top Democrat on the House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee, plenty of time to “boil over,” as he later wrote. When he finally arrived in Washington, having missed three votes, he lambasted the airline’s handling of the delay in a statement in the Congressional Record: “At moments, the arrival/departure information was so confused that the airplane would have had to violate the laws of physics in order to abide by the airline schedule,” Rahall’s statement read. “Needless to say, all passengers were inconvenienced and the airline’s explanations were wholly unsatisfactory.

This flight delay prevented me from carrying out my Constitutional duty to represent the people of southern West Virginia: I feel I owe them and this body an explanation about why that was not possible last night.”

Voting is one of the most important duties of a lawmaker, and most miss very few votes. Yet voting attendance has become a topic of discussion in the Republican presidential primary, as Florida Sen. Marco Rubio has missed about a third of all votes this year, by far the most in that chamber.

In the House, unlike the Senate, lawmakers are given a chance to provide “Personal Explanations”

to explain missed votes. These entries filed in the Congressional Record say not only how a Representative came to be absent, but also how they would have voted though they don’t have the effect of adding or changing a vote.

The custom has been in place since at least 1845, according to a 2008 Congressional Research Service report.

In a telephone interview, Rahall said he wanted it on the record that he would have voted in support of the three bills the House considered that day — a measure to convey federal land in Utah to the state, another changing the rules for granting ski area permits on national forest land and a third granting submerged land surrounding the Northern Mariana Islands to the American territory — if only to prevent political opponents from using the missed votes against him.

“They could end up as a 30-second sound bite in a campaign,” he said. (Rahall was defeated in 2014 by Evan Jenkins, a Republican).

ProPublica has collected all of the Personal Explanations filed since 2007 – some 5,058 in all, covering 21,176 votes – and created a database that lets readers look up their representatives’ missed votes, as well as their explanations. These statements are by no means required – only one in six absences are explained – but they document a little-discussed aspect of the lives and work of lawmakers, and provide hints at the competing priorities and difficulties of a system that, to many, seems chronically dysfunctional.

The reasons lawmakers cite most for missing votes range from the mundane (travel delays, often due to weather, or remaining in their districts for job fairs) to more personal (the birth of a child or

a graduation ceremony or illness). Lawmakers have missed more than 2,000 votes for medical reasons, and thousands more for personal and family reasons.

The record is full of stories documenting the working lives of Representatives: Marcy Kaptur, a Democratic congresswoman from Ohio, missed a 2008 House vote because she was searching the Capitol for high school students visiting from her district. Jeff Landry, a Louisiana Republican, “completely lost track of time” and missed two votes in 2011. For Ben Ray Lujan, Democrat of New Mexico, an “operational issue” with a House voting machine meant that a 2012 vote wasn’t recorded.

For some, avoiding a vote is a sign of defiance.

In 2012, Jan Schakowsky of Illinois was one of 108 Democrats who declined even to vote on a resolution holding then-Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress. She was the only one, though, to insert a statement in the Record saying she would have voted no: “I would not participate in what I strongly believe was an abuse of power by the majority.”

Although many explanations are short, lawmakers can be more expansive when a key issue is at stake. When J. Randy Forbes, a Virginia Republican who has missed less than 3 percent of votes since 2007, was absent for a January 2015 vote on a bill to ban federal funding for abortion, his explanation provided no reason, but emphasized his stance on the issue: “I am and always have been pro-life, and throughout my tenure in Congress will continue to be a strong advocate for the unborn.”

The Rules of the House say that “Every Member shall be present within the Hall of the House during its sittings, unless excused or necessarily prevented, and shall vote on each question put, unless having a direct personal or pecuniary interest in the event of such question.” Lawmakers routinely say that they take their voting responsibilities seriously, and in general attendance records bear that out: most lawmakers participate in the overwhelming majority of votes held.

Democrats have missed more votes than Republicans since the beginning of 2007, but they account for an even greater share of the explained missed votes: two of every three since the beginning of 2013.

Luis Gutierrez, an Illinois Democrat, has missed nearly one in six votes this year, according to voting records, one of the highest rates among current members of the House. He has been absent for 15 percent of all votes since the beginning of 2007, often due to his work on immigration policy, which frequently has him on the road.

“Congressman Gutierrez prioritizes constituent case work and spending time in the District in Chicago,” said Douglas G. Rivlin, a spokesman for Gutierrez, in a statement emailed to ProPublica. “He also devotes a great deal of time to traveling all over the country to build support for immigration reform.

As a national figure, his time is in great demand. He rarely misses substantive votes and when he does,

it is because he cannot be in two places at once.”

Gutierrez sporadically explains his absences — a statement for the Record in July gave a clear reason for one: He was attending oral arguments in a federal court case over immigration policy.

He also missed votes due to a family medical issue, meetings at the White House and, in 2011, “my participation in a peaceful rally and protest against the current Administration’s enforcement policies against immigrant students and the families of U.S. citizens.”

Representatives’ schedules are hardly overstuffed with days spent in the House chamber. In 2014, the members of the House spent only 29 weeks in session, each of which was bookended by long weekends spent doing district work, fundraising or running for re-election. The House is not scheduled to be in session for a five-day week this year.

As lawmakers balance their duties, not every vote is created equal. Both ProPublica’s analysis and research by Eleanor Neff Powell, a political scientist at the University of Wisconsin, found that lawmakers miss more lopsided votes than ones that are important to either political party.

There have been 20 times when the number of explained missed votes exceeded the final margin of approval or defeat. Half were on amendments.

One, a 2011 amendment to a spending bill about labor agreements on federal construction projects was approved by a single vote and had eight explanations from the 25 House members who did not vote, including three Republicans opposed to the amendment.

Bills that have widespread bipartisan support often are considered “under suspension of the rules,” which means they are debated fairly quickly, sometimes in a few minutes, and must have the support of two-thirds of those voting. About four in 10 personal explanations occur on these so-called suspension votes, which often are scheduled on the first day of the week that the House is in session, when travel delays could make it more likely for a member to miss votes. Absences (explained or not) on suspension votes account for 36 percent of all House votes missed between 2007 and October 2015.

If personal explanations are optional, why do representatives use them at all? Often, to indicate to constituents that just because they didn’t vote doesn’t mean they don’t have an opinion.

“It shows that you care about what they’re asking about,” said Powell.

For lawmakers facing tight re-election contests, missed votes can be part of a political balancing act.

Opponents are quick to make use of a poor voting record. Missing a vote can be a graceful way to dodge votes designed to put lawmakers on the spot.

Explanations, in turn, can provide a way to miss the actual vote and still claim that they would have voted the way constituents might have preferred.

In 2013, Brad Schneider, an Illinois Democrat, voted against a Republican spending bill that also

‘Representatives’ schedules are hardly overstuffed with days spent in the House chamber. In 2014, the members of the House spent only 29 weeks in session... The House is not scheduled to be in session for a five-day week this year.’

The Rock River Times | November 11-17, 2015 | delayed the individual health insurance mandate created by the Affordable Care Act. The next year, he missed a vote on a bill to delay the individual mandate but explained that, had he been there, he would have voted in favor of delaying the mandate, as he did on a similar bill in July 2013. Schneider lost his seat in 2014 to Bob Dold, a Republican former congressman who voted against the health care law while in the House, in a race where the health insurance law figured prominently. He is running against Dold again in 2016; Schneider’s campaign did not respond to a request for comment.

Missing potentially controversial votes, then submitting explanations is an example of what researcher Powell calls “strategic abstention”: when a member skips a vote on which her party’s position is incompatible with her constituents’ views.

Rather than disappoint either, the Representative can simply miss the vote, later explaining that she would have voted the way her constituents would have wanted, without actually doing so and creating a rift with her party.

The ProPublica analysis, which covers a different time period than Powell’s, found some evidence of this: there were 128 votes on bill passage in which a member who missed the vote later registered opposition to his or her party’s majority position. Fifty-six of those contained no clear reason for the absence.

Lawmakers’ explanations cover not only missed votes, but mistaken ones as well. It’s not common — explanations attempting to correct a wrong vote or saying that a member tried to vote but could not — number about 320 during the past eight years.

But more than one in five current lawmakers has done it at least once since the beginning of 2007, with John Conyers, a Michigan Democrat and the chamber’s longest-serving member, claiming 12 incorrect votes. The official record of a 2011 vote on an bill to expand offshore oil and gas leases shows Conyers voting in favor, when he meant to vote against the bill. Conyers, who at 86 is also the House’s oldest member, did not respond to several requests for comment made through his office.

A handful of other lawmakers have reported voting incorrectly at least four times, including Adam Smith, a Washington Democrat who is the ranking member on the House Armed Services Committee. On at least one of those occasions, on a vote that occurred at 1:53 a.m. on Feb. 18, 2011, Smith voted for an amendment and later explained that he should have voted no. Rebecca Bryant, a spokeswoman for Smith, said that in that case the congressman “had some misinformation” on the nature of the amendment that was only clarified the next morning.

“The key thing is transparency,” said Bryant of the vote explanations. “We wanted to articulate how the congressman felt.”

Occasionally, lawmakers change their minds after a vote and submit a personal explanation about it. In 2008, the House voted to censure Charlie Rangel, a New York Democrat, over ethics violations, and Texas Republican Lamar Smith voted in favor of doing so. Later, in a statement in the Record, Smith reconsidered his vote: “Members had no advance notice of the vote, and I did not familiarize myself with the substance of the motion as much as I would have liked. If the vote were taken again, I would vote present rather than ‘aye’.”

ON NOTICE New York’s attorney general fired a warning shot to companies that have tried to subvert climate science

By Wendy E. Wagner University of Texas at Austin

In a move that is potentially transformative, the New York attorney general is investigating Exxon for financial fraud.

The company made public statements questioning the science of climate change in years past, even as its own in-house scientists informed company executives that precisely the opposite was the case.

Put in simpler terms, the New York investigation is exploring whether the company lied to investors and consumers in order to place its own profits ahead of the public good.

But while the case focuses specifically on Exxon’s activities, its impact will be felt by many other corporations accused of misleading the public and investors.

‘Bending’ science

Numerous authors have documented the ways that companies and other parties “bend” science to advance their goals. For example, investigative accounts reveal how companies hire researchers to conduct research with a specific end in mind to bolster their own self-serving positions. These actors can also hire skeptic scientists (“merchants of doubt”) to poke holes in unwelcome research – “manufacturing doubt,” as David Michaels put it in his book on this corporate technique.

Some companies even attack individual researchers professionally for producing research that is unwelcome, using a range of legally sanctioned techniques such as launching “scientific misconduct” allegations, inundating the researcher with subpoenas seeking all records of ongoing and past research, harassing researchers with open records requests or a mix of the above.

In a book called “Bending Science,” Tom McGarity and I identify dozens of different techniques developed over the years to accomplish this science-bending by more corporations (and other actors, including the government) than we dared count.

The current allegations against Exxon – namely that the company hired skeptics to cast doubt on the scientific research underlying climate change – come right out of this same playbook. Thus while Exxon’s actions, if ultimately proven to be true, will be upsetting, they are no different from numerous other corporations that used the same tactics.

And although Exxon might face negative publicity in the short term, it could actually find itself far better off than other corporations whose deeply held secrets were linked causally to thousands of preventable deaths and injuries, as was the case for asbestos, tobacco, the Dalkon Shield, the pregnancy drug DES, lead and other hazardous products.

Exxon in the bull’s eye

At the heart of the trouble is the complicity of the law in tolerating this bending of science. Historically, the legal system has not only allowed but in some cases has even aggravated these practices.

Hiring scientists to produce research or launch critiques that are manufactured and have a specific end in mind is not only allowed, it may provide companies with decades of profits that they would other-

wise lose if they were forthright about the state of the research.

Under current rules, there are effectively no penalties for filing harassing subpoenas, open records claims, or misconduct allegations against a scientist to attempt to intimidate him or halt his work. In such a laissez-faire system, where lies are often far more convenient (and profit-bearing) than the truth, it is easy to understand why a rational corporation would go to great efforts to bend the science to their ends.

To make matters worse, even after incriminating research is discovered and a company is outed in the tort system (although this can be forestalled through “sealed settlements” that prevent the disclosure of incriminating research), the company may come out ahead financially as a result of delaying the bad news. And of course there is also the possibility that the company might not be caught at all.

Given the legal tolerance for corporate misrepresentation of science, Exxon may well wonder why it is being picked on. Compared with the corporations of the past, Exxon’s offenses – at least those currently under investigation – seem almost quaint.

Ironically, Exxon’s biggest mistake may well have been trying to have its cake and eat it too – in this case, actually learning of and acting on the truth about climate science in the first place.

As reported in a 2012 Union of Concerned Scientist Report on the corporate financing of climate deniers, Exxon ranks among the top of the hedge-betters; it appears to have supported a number of initiatives on both climate research and climate-denying work.

Most of its competitors, by contrast, appear to be on one side or the other. By playing both sides of the science, Exxon might have unwittingly opened itself up to greater vulnerability for charges of corporate dishonesty.

Corporate accountability

Given the environment in which corporations’ manipulation of science is both commonplace and legally tolerated, the New York investigation has the potential to be transformative. Rather than seek damages as a plaintiff in a tort case (as the attorneys general did in the tobacco litigation), the end goal of the New York investigation is to identify and potentially penalize scientific manipulations and lies.

Working under New York’s broad-reaching Martin Act, the attorney general’s investigation will send a clear message that lying about public health and environmental science is illegal and perhaps even criminal, at least in the state of New York.

In the end, Exxon may convince the attorney general that it did not support climate deniers knowingly. Or perhaps it may be able to prove that it did nothing wrong at all.

But that will not undo the fact that the New York attorney general is now officially on the prowl for corporate dishonesty and is willing to levy sanctions against any they discover to be engaging in the practice.

In other words, the consequences might not fall on Exxon but will almost certainly affect another company less able to extract itself from its own public day of reckoning.

Even more importantly, through the example of the state of New York, it is possible that the rest of the country will wake up and join in legally penalizing corporate irresponsibility.

If we are to live in a country where the market reigns, we should at least demand that our corporations tell the truth. Consequently, regardless of the ultimate guilt or innocence of Exxon, the New York’s investigation is an important step in the right direction, toward better science and a healthier corporate landscape.

W

e live in the country, yet still feel the desire to experience other natural areas. One of our favorites is a leisurely paddle down a cold, crystal clear river in Wisconsin’s sand country.

A few years ago a bottled water company tried to capture the water from this trout stream and sell it in plastic bottles for profit.

Fortunately people successfully fought the endeavor. More recently large dairy operations have sprung up in the area potentially threatening both the availability of water and its high quality.

To date the stream remains intact but in a growth oriented culture new threats to environmental quality are never ending. At some point infinite growth on a finite planet becomes impossible.

Our friends of many years have owned a small formerly abandoned farm which has served the family well as they are avid outdoors people with a keen interest in ecology.

With everyone’s busy schedules we still plan

at least one fall trip with them.

This fall, as we approached the farm we noticed a nearly denuded hillside just north of their woods. We wondered why anyone would do that to such a beautiful natural site. We soon learned that oak wilt had once again struck. Our friend pointed out where trees had grown in their farmyard last year but were no longer there. He is a retired biology professor; his father was Bob’s first ecology professor. So naturally, much of our conversation revolves around field biology. That day, our conversation began with the cause, symptoms and impacts of oak wilt.

Oak wilt is a disease caused by a fungus which enters a tree and stops of the flow of water by plugging vessels in the vascular system. While all oaks are susceptible some such as red oaks are highly susceptible. It is most commonly spread by root to root contact but can also spread by fungal spore mats which attract sap feeding nitidulid beetles. The beetles can carry the spores from an infected tree to another tree with a fresh wound spreading the disease. Clues to its presence and recommendations for controlling the disease can be

found online.

The hillside oaks were infested with oak wilt so the entire stand was removed as a sanitation measure to limit the spread of the disease.

Our friend reminded us of his father’s theory that the presence of oak wilt might have been a contributing factor to the survival of the native prairie.

When oaks became particularly dense, the wilt would have killed off many, creating openings for the prairie to expand.

Seventy years ago ecologist and environmental philosopher Aldo Leopold chronicled the life and death of the Good Oak whose offspring also lived and now died in Sand County; “We mourned the loss of the old tree, but knew that a dozen of its progeny standing straight and stalwart on the sands had already taken over its job of wood-making.”

Our canoe trips are less frequent than in earlier years but remain an important and inspiring part of our lives. It is always good to maintain contact with old friends and reconnect with a natural setting that rekindles our spirit as it has for other generations.

Farming

Cover crops: how and when to use them

By Grant McCarty Local Foods and Small Farms Educator, University of Illinois Extension

In recent years, there has been renewed interest in utilizing cover crops on both large and small scale operations. This trend has included interest in the backyard. Cover crops are a crop that is grown in the same space where a cash crop has grown. This may mean that a farmer plants a crop after harvesting their beans or corn. The same cover crop may be planted after tomatoes were harvested at a vegetable farm.

Cover crops address a number of soil and plant needs. They may help with soil compaction, sequester nitrogen from the atmosphere for next year’s crop, assist with weed management, build soil with their root system, and be used as animal forage. There isn’t necessarily a perfect cover crop as each cover crop will be good at some characteristics more than others.

Cover crops include those that are leguminous and non-leguminous. The leguminous cover crops are those that actively sequester nitrogen in the soil for next year’s crops. By utilizing charts, you are able to determine how

many lbs of nitrogen per acre will be sequestered by planting this leguminous crop. Leguminous crops include cowpea, hairy vetch, and clovers.

The nonleguminous cover crops are those that are unable to sequester nitrogen but may still be involved in soil building practices. These nonleguminous cover crops include buckwheat, radish, sorghum-sudangrass, wheat, and rye.

Both nonleguminous and leguminous cover crops are then known as cool and warm season.

For instance, sorghum-sudangrass is a non-leguminous warm season cover crop.

It is too late in the season to plant these cover crops as rye and wheat were the last ones that could have been planted last month. For next season, consider planting some of these cover crops to address soil needs. In a small plot, oats, cowpea, and buckwheat can be good choices for warm season. Many of the cool season like rye and wheat work fine for small plots.

When choosing a cover crop know its growth feature. While buckwheat can be a great choice, it can go to seed very fast and can be a nuisance if not managed. Next week I’ll talk about the exit strategies once you’ve planted the cover crops.

Waiting on higher corn and soybean prices

By Debra Levey Larson U of I News Bureau

URBANA – Corn and soybean producers have not priced a relatively large portion of 2015 crops.

These crops are being held in open storage, either on the farm or in commercial facilities or in the form of basis contracts or delayed pricing contracts.

According to a University of Illinois agricultural economist, producers have judged that there is potential for higher prices, or at least a small risk of lower prices, as the marketing year progresses.

“The strategy of waiting on higher prices after harvest was generally successful last year but required some timely pricing,” said Darrel Good.

“Using central Illinois as an example, the average cash price of corn at interior elevators was $3.09 in October 2014 and $3.74 in December 2014. Daily prices ranged from $2.80 in October to $3.90 in December. Prices generally moved lower during the winter and early spring of 2015, but recovered to an average of $3.85 in July 2015.The extreme daily high in July was $4.15, but the price declined below $3.50 by the end of the month. For soybeans, the average cash price was $9.40 in October 2014 and $10.23 in December 2014. Daily prices ranged from $8.82 in October to $10.41 in December. Like corn prices, soybean prices were lower in the winter and early spring of 2015, but recovered to an average of $10.10 in July, with a daily high of $10.36.”

Good said that last year part of the increase in cash prices in central Illinois, as well as most other areas, resulted from a strengthening of the basis after harvest.

The cash price of corn in October 2014 was about 72 cents under July 2015 futures.The basis strengthened to about -38 cents in December and -12 cents in July. The seasonal increase in the basis totaled about 60 cents. Similarly, the July soybean basis strengthened from -50 cents in October to -25 cents in December and -10 cents in July for a total increase of 40 cents.

“Such a large increase in the corn and soybean basis is not expected this year because the basis is already quite strong,” Good said. The average central Illinois basis (relative to July 2016 futures) at interior elevators is currently -28 cents for corn and -21 cents for soybeans. Higher cash prices as the season progresses this year will likely require higher futures prices.

“Judging the potential for higher corn and soybean prices starts with the sources of current ‘low’ prices,” Good said. “For both crops, current prices reflect a combination of the large 2015 U.S. harvest estimates and weak export demand that point to adequate year-ending stocks of corn and surplus soybean stocks. Higher prices could be generated by lower production estimates or an improvement in export demand. The USDA will release a new forecastofcropsizeonNov.10andafinalproduction

estimate in the second week of January. Based on planted acreage that has been reported to the USDA’s Farm Service Agency, there is some potential for the estimate of harvested acreage of both crops to be reduced from the October forecasts. Any changes, however, would likely be very modest.

The production estimates could also be reduced as a result of lower yield estimates. Based on the historical pattern of USDA yield forecasts during the August through January cycle, however, lower yield forecasts would not be expected. In addition, individual yield reports over a large area this year suggest there may be more potential for increases rather than decreases in the yield forecasts.”

On the export side, the USDA has forecast 2015-16 marketing-year corn exports at 1.85 billion bushels, just 14 million bushels less than exports of last year. In the first 9.5 weeks of the marketing year, exports (weekly USDA export inspections adjusted by the September Census export estimate) were 76 million bushels less than exports during the same period last year.

“In addition, unshipped export sales as of Oct. 29 were about 170 million bushels less than those of a year ago,” Good said. For soybeans, the USDA has forecast marketing-year exports at 1.675 billion bushels, 168 million bushels less than exported last year. In the first 9.5 weeks of the year, exports exceeded those of last year by 21 million bushels.

“Unshipped export sales as of Oct. 29, however, trailed those of last year by about 310 million bushels,” Good said. “Additional export competition for U.S. soybeans could also result from a change in export policy in Argentina that resulted in lower export duties. Unless the export environment changes as a result of a weakening in the value of the U.S. dollar or production problems in the southern hemisphere, it appears that exports will struggle to reach the current USDA projections.”

Good said that nearby corn and soybean futures are currently trading just above contract lows that were established in August or September. Higher corn and soybean prices over the next two months generated by lower U.S. production estimates, an improvement in export prospects, or other positive development, cannot be ruled out. Those other developmentscouldincludeastronger-than-expected pace of domestic consumption or surprises in the USDA’s Dec. 1 stocks estimates to be released in the second week of January. However, substantial price strength is not expected, with the more likely scenario being a continuation of price weakness.

“Similar to the pattern of last year, potential for price strength is possible again during the 2016 planting and growing season in the United States,” Good said. “The ultimate demise of the currently very strong El Niño weather event may bring more than normal crop weather risk in the summer of 2016.”

Shining a ‘Spotlight’ on top journalism

By Christopher B. Daly

I

Boston University

n the new movie Spotlight, there’s a wonderful scene where a reporter is seeking documents in a courthouse. The building is a dreary linoleum monument to The Way Things Are. In the scene, a recalcitrant clerk treats the reporter as if he were a nuisance and declines to lift a finger.

The moment perfectly captures an ethos that I remember well from my own adventures as a reporter covering Massachusetts government, courts and politics. In that world, the idea that knowledge is power is intuitively understood by all parties, like an article of faith or an early item in the Catechism.

The feeling is this: If I know something that you don’t know, why should I tell you? If I do, then you’ll know as much as I do. So screw off.

Freedom of information? Ha! Information’s free only if someone is stupid enough to give it away!

That belief pervades much of the world that the movie Spotlight tries to illuminate. The film takes its title from the special investigative unit at the Boston Globe that cracked open the scandal inside the clergy and hierarchy of the Catholic Church. The Globe team documented the pervasive, long-running practice of high-ranking Church officials covering up for priests who sexually molested, abused and raped children.

(During this period, I covered the trials of two of the Church’s “bad apples” – Father Porter and Father Geoghan. But like everyone else, I failed to connect the dots of the larger cover-up.)

The film pits two powerful Boston institutions against each other: the Catholic Church and the city’s big newspaper. Worthy adversaries, the two sides battled for years in the early 2000s. The paper was trying to pry evidence of the scandal out of court records (which were sealed, naturally, under terms of the many settlements the Church reached with its victims), out of victims, out of lawyers and out of anyone who would talk.

Meanwhile, Church officials – starting with the disgraced former cardinal, Bernard Law – used a variety of classic techniques: stonewalling, threatening, denying and appealing to old friendships. According to the filmmakers, some Church leaders and some lay defenders of the Church tried to demonize the Globe’s then-new top editor, Marty Baron, by raising insidious questions about him: isn’t he Jewish? Why isn’t he married? He’s not from here, is he?

Ultimately, of course, the journalists triumph in the film – just as they did in real life. In doing so, Spotlight sends out a strong and welcome message: journalism ain’t dead. For a field that

Rachel McAdams, Michael Keaton, and Mark Ruffalo star in ‘Spotlight,’ considered by many the Best Picture Oscar. A nonymous Content

has had more than its share of bad news for more than a decade now, it’s nice to be reminded that journalism matters.

Writer-director Tom McCarthy clearly holds journalism in high regard, and gives viewers an inside look at the reporting process. We watch the team of reporters made up of Matt Carroll (played by Brian d’Arcy James), Sacha Pfeiffer (Rachel McAdams) and Mike Rezendes (a twitchy Mark Ruffalo) as they are led by “Robby” Robinson (played with eerie intensity by Michael Keaton) and his boss, Ben Bradlee Jr (John Slattery).

One of the best things about Spotlight is the way it portrays the thrill of the chase that fuels reporters when they’re trying to pin down an important story. We see the Globe reporters toiling into the night, wrecking their weekends and actually enjoying their work. We root for them as they match wits with surly clerks, the oily fixers protecting the Church and the dead weight of centuries of Catholic indoctrination and obedience. (“Yes, Father.” “Of course, Father.” “Yes,

Your Eminence.”)

In my opinion, the film makes one major misstep: it is unnecessarily harsh in its portrayal of Eric MacLeish, grandson of poet Archibald MacLeish and a Boston attorney who represented many of the Church’s victims. I spoke to MacLeish many times during those years, and he was always straight with me and as forthcoming as his legal duties would allow. In the film, he is depicted as the jerk lawyer who could help the Globe, but won’t.

Instead, attorney Mitchell Garabedian (played marvelously by Stanley Tucci) gets to play the only decent lawyer in sight.

I saw Spotlight recently at a special screening for Journalism Department faculty and students of Boston University (the alma mater of two real-life Spotlight reporters, Sacha Pfeiffer and Mike Rezendes). All the key figures from the Globe investigation were there, except for Baron, who has moved on to be the top editor of The Washington Post. Robby acknowledged a point made in the film that I hadn’t been aware of:

sources had sent the Globe much of the evidence needed to break the story years earlier, but no one paid much attention the first time.

The film ends just as the Globe breaks the big story, in January 2002. The story rocked the Church, all the way to Rome, by dragging all the foul deeds of priests out of the darkness and into the light (the spotlight, if you will). It won the paper a Pulitzer Prize.

The folks at the Globe (at least, those who still have jobs) are rightly proud of their newspaper. The depiction of reporting that we see in “Spotlight” gives all of us who work in journalism a reason to feel proud too, by reminding us that the world would be a pretty crummy place without those driven, impertinent, nosy people who won’t take no for answer.

Cinema

More tired zombie themes dominate Scouts Guide

By Thomas Simpson Contributor

W

hether it’s on TV or at the cinema we can’t seem to avoid zombies. The undead are a bankable commodity however there’s only so many different ways that the story of the zombie apocalypse can be told before we all fall into a mass slumber.

Director Christopher B. Landon looks to provide a different slant on our inevitable destiny. Sure a virus is concocted in a lab only for it to escape but this time our saviors have a more particular set of skills. The last line of defense is a scout group in Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse.

Despite the novelty of the title, there’s isn’t much in the plot that you won’t have seen before. Ben (Tye Sheridan) is your everyday high school sophomore loser.

He’s cute, harmless and lacks severely in the cool kid department. His two friends are, naturally, the horny funny one Carter (Logan Miller) and the even more pathetic Augie (Joey Morgan).

Despite being the social outcasts and the butt of all jokes, the trio become the only hope for the seniors that mock them when the zombie plague infects the town. Well, the three of them and hot cocktail waitress Denise (Sarah Dumont).

Whereas the title promises a wacky over the top comedy horror, Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse is mostly a rehash of early 2000s raunchy comedies.

Everything looks familiar yet watered down. For the first act you wouldn’t care if zombies devoured the screenwriters as the hackneyed clichés of the genre are trotted out one after another.

To be fair to the main cast, they do their best with the material available and although it takes around half the film to develop any attachment to them, they’re fairly likable and amusing enough.

As a comedy it doesn’t provide enough laughs however the film’s strengths lie in its horror set-pieces. The pace picks up when the zombies attack providing the opportunity for some inventive and comical deaths.

Towards the third act the film pays homage to Evil Dead 2 as the scouts go into A-Team mode, using their DIY skills to tool up. This is where the film works best but it’s dragged down too often by the bland high school comedy tropes.

Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse chooses to follow a timeworn rule book for the majority of its run time which is unfortunate as it shines when it loosens the restraints and dives head first into the absurd.

The laughs are few and far between with perhaps the best joke delivered just before the credits roll. There is fun to be had during the Scouts vs. Zombies scenes but it’s not enough to save the film and while it aims low, it misses the mark by playing it safe.

WNIJ Three Minute Fiction 89.5 WNIJ recently invited listeners to participate in Three-Minute Fiction, a “very short story” contest inspired by an NPR series of the same name. GK Wuori, a DeKalb native, Pushcart Prize-winning author and Illinois Arts Council Fellow, wrote the story prompt and selected five winners and five honorable mention commendations.

The prompt was: “I’m a curious person. No, I’m a nosey person. No, I’m a snoop, and it’s finally gotten me into trouble.”

Author Brenna Parson was a runner up in the Three-Minute Fiction competition with “Three Months Later.”

“Three Months Later”

by Brenna Parson

I’m a curious person.

No, I’m a nosey person.

No, I’m a snoop, and it’s finally gotten me into trouble.

Ever since my dad left three months ago, strange things have been happening.

Doors opening randomly, the microwave turning on and beeping at random hours, and the

food I swear was there – gone. But when I ask my mom, she brushes it off, saying, “it’s just PTSD.” “But I’ve never been in anything traumatic,” I argue back. Again, she brushes it off and leaves.

So here’s where the snooping comes in. Since she wasn’t going to give me answers, I snuck into her room while she’s making dinner. Her bed is made up nice, her clothes are put away, and nothing’s out of the ordinary. Suddenly, I hear her coming, and I charge into the closet. She comes into the room, silent. I open the door a crack and peek out. She’s sitting on the bed, weeping.

Then the weird stuff happens.

See, I wouldn’t have seen anything had I not been snooping around my mom’s stuff. But here I am, in this compromising position, forced with the reality of my actions.

Anyways, here’s what I saw: a flash of light pops through my vision, and two people appear, laying in the bed. It’s a man and a woman, their faces

marked with horror.

I nearly scream. Ghosts. There are ghosts in my house. At least it makes sense now. My mom doesn’t even notice the people, though, she just keeps crying. Then she, wipes her eyes, gets up, and goes to the bathroom. I burst out of the closet and run to the hallway, refusing to look at the ghosts. I run to my room, close the door, and lock it. I take deep breaths, turn around, and wonder how I never noticed the ghosts till now.

And how I never noticed the one on my bed.

This one I get a good look at, considering he’s sitting right in front of me. He’s sort of blue, and see-through, but I can still tell he has shaggy blonde hair, brown eyes, and he’s wearing a green jacket and jeans. He stares at me in horror, just like the other two in Mom’s room.

“What do you want?” I ask, but it comes out as more of a wail.

He swallows, his eyes still wide. “I want you to

leave my house,” he says in a watery voice. I guess he’s in like another dimension or something, and our connection sucks. Maybe he drowned in the tub. Or a pool. With his parents. Could this get any weirder?

“Your house? Excuse you, but I’ve lived here my whole life,” I snap. “Why don’t you go find another house?”

“Have you been the one moving all our furniture?” he demands.

I stare at him. “Have you been the one eating all our food?”

He raises an eyebrow. “Your food? You don’t have any food. You’re non-corporeal.”

“Excuse me? You’re the ghost.”

“No, you’re a ghost. We moved here three months ago after this guy murdered his family and got arrested. He went berserk, apparently, killing his wife and then his daughter while she was asleep.”

And that’s when I realized – my feet weren’t touching the floor.

Rockford Rocked Interviews

Catching up with Tundras

By Todd Houston Exclusive to TRRT

Rockford Housing Authority Will close the Fairgrounds Valley Application Waitlist as of 11/16/15

Visit us at www.rockfordha.org Call us at 815-489-8500 or visit our office located at 223 S. Winnebago Street, Rockford, IL 61102

Rockford Rocked Interview: A lot of your music starts off very beautiful and happy (sort of like the Foo Fighters with a toothache) but it gets ugly in hurry. What word would you choose that best describes your music?

Brian Mastrangeli: Psych.

RRI: Who are the members and when and where did the band form?

BM: Tundras consists of drummer/keyboard player Josh Ellis, guitarists Cory Wicklund and Chris Rodriguez, and me on bass. The band started in the spring of 2012 here in Rockford following the dissolution of The Rough Tracks (Cory, Brian, Josh) and Indomitable Ancients (Chris) the previous winter.

RRI: I’m pretty sure (guitarist) Chris is that guy that fixes guitars and stuff at a local music store here in Rockford. Does he ever try selling you guys used gear or ask you guys to fill out credit applications for store credit? Be honest.

BM: (Laughter) Yeah, Chris is the guitar tech at Guitar Center. We don’t usually let Chris talk us into too much, but we definitely take advantage of not having to run to the music store to grab fresh strings and sticks.

RRI: Who are the main song writers in Tundras and what inspires you to sit down and write a tune?

BM: Most songs start with a riff or general idea that Cory or Chris will bring to the rest of the band, and from there song writing is a pretty democratic process for us. The four of us have been playing in bands together on and off since we were in our teens, so we have a connection as musicians that make jamming and writing music together a joy.

RRI: It seems as though the lion’s share of your songs are instrumentals. Have you ever thought about finding a suitable singer to parade around the stage and yell at folks or are writing lyrics just a big pain in the butt for you guys?

BM: We started this band just the four of us and didn’t put much thought into vocals for a while.

As our first set of songs rounded out we tried out a couple of guys on vocals and it just never

felt right so after some discussion we decided to continue on instrumental. We will have one song on our upcoming album with vocals and are not opposed to find more of a place for them in our music going forward.

RRI: What’s the story behind the song Anna Page? Is that song about the park here in Rockford or about a girl?

BM: The advantage of being an instrumental band is that your songs can really be about whatever we choose. At the time we wrote that song we were really into disc golf so we named it after the park.

RRI: I recently read an article in a major music publication that claimed “metal music” is dead or slowly dying. There are so many subgenres in metal music that it would be ridiculous to make a statement like that in my opinion. Thoughts?

BM: There are always ebbs and flows to whats in and out in music. I think metal might not exactly be in the national spotlight but if you look at the internet or go to shows you’ll see the genre is alive and well.

RRI: You guys play all over the Rockford and Chicago area. What’s your favorite venue to play?

BM: Hands down it would be Mary’s Place in Rockford. They are the most welcoming and supportive venue to local bands in northern Illinois. They also have the best live sound and most energetic crowds in town. We seriously can’t say enough about how great that place is.

RRI: In 2013 you released an EP entitled The Process. What can we expect from that release and more importantly where can we find it?

BM: Yes, we released that in the spring of 2013 and you can download that for free at tundrasil. bandcamp.com.

RRI: What does 2016 have in store for Tundras?

BM: We just finished up recording our, as of yet untitled, first full length album at The Midwest Sound. We hope to have that ready for release by spring. Beyond that hopefully playing new places and seeing new faces! You can find all things Tundras at facebook.com/tundrasillinois including updates on the new album and all of our upcoming shows.

Local Music

Julian Bliss Septet bringing swing to RCCA

By Anne E. O’Keefe Rockford Area Arts Council

J

ulian Bliss is a remarkable musician to say the very least. Born in 1989 in Harpenden, Hertfordshire, England, he began playing the clarinet at the age of four. He purchased his first Benny Goodman recording at age seven or eight not expecting that he would someday create a group to celebrate his music with its launch in 2012.

Having received his post graduate from Indiana University at the age of 12 it isn’t surprising that he has appeared with many of the world’s leading orchestras, including the London Philharmonic Orchestra, BBC Symphony Orchestra, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields, and performed chamber music with Joshua Bell, Hélène

Grimaud, Steven Isserlis, Steven Kovacevich.

He was one of the distinguished artists chosen to play Queen’s Golden Jubilee Celebrations at Buckingham Palace 2002.

Bliss was asked to join the instrument development team after Conn-Selmer purchased Leblanc Clarinets. “We had a mutual desire to design and build a new intermediate instrument to reduce the obscenely large price gap between beginner instruments and the next step.

When I started to play the clarinet, I had a plastic C clarinet which cost me under £100 and when it was time for me to move on, the only suitable instrument was in excess of £1,000.

This had always stuck with me.” The “Bliss” was launched in December 2008 at the Midwest Clinic in Chicago.

The Julian Bliss Septet’s (julianbliss.com) first

stop in the US is the Rockford Coronado Concert Associations second concert this season.

Recreating the exciting sound of swing from the ’30s and ’40s, Julian Bliss leads his septet through some of the great tunes of the swing era, staying true to the authentic feel but with a modern twist.

An album, “A Tribute to Benny Goodman,” was released on Signum Records in June 2012 to critical acclaim from both jazz and classical reviewers. For live performances, Julian Bliss offers an unbiased point of view about the work of Benny Goodman, talking the audience through the music and sharing anecdotes and stories about Goodman’s life, all delivered with humor.

Program includes: Lady Be Good (Rifftide), Georgia Brown, Sing Sing Sing, Don’t be that way, Stompin’ at the Savoy and Memories of you.

Having performed at leading venues and festivals across the UK and Europe; including London’s Wigmore Hall & Ronnie Scott’s and the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, the Septet’s next project explores the intense and exciting world of Latin American music.

It is an exciting time in the history of music in Rockford Public Schools district 205, with the goal being reached for Band Wagon 2, the eight middle schools will have funds for instruments, band uniforms, sheet music and instructors. This may be our chance to find the next Bliss.

You won’t want to miss this lively evening of the best swing ever. You will undoubtedly want to jump up and dance in the aisles! Visit rccaconcerts.org or call 815-847-6314 to buy your tickets today.

Commentary

Supporting our veterans as important as ever

By Adam Kinzinger

U.S. Representative, IL-16

O

n this Veterans Day, I hope you will join me and honor our veterans who have given so much for our country. In every conflict, they have answered the call to service, sacrifice and commitment. In doing so, we have a remained a free nation.

After courageously fighting to uphold our values and principles, it is crucial that our nation prioritize our service members by facilitating a smooth transition for veterans.

While post-September 11 unemployment rates for veterans have gone down considerably, there are still barriers for veterans who are returning from Iraq and Afghanistan that are seeking a job.

All too often, veterans are well-qualified for civilian jobs, but face obstacles in meeting the civilian requirements. For example, military-trained medics are required to take classes they have already completed in the military to satisfy the current civilian licensure system, needlessly delaying their entry into the civilian workforce of emergency medic technicians (EMTs). That is why I

reintroduced a bipartisan bill that would help states streamline their licensure requirements so these battle-tested and well trained military medics can find jobs as civilian EMTs. Many other skill areas are taught to our soldiers, sailors, and airmen that have similar applications in the civilian workplace, but there is no system in place to facilitate the wide-range of training learned during their time in service to the private sector.

In addition to helping our veterans re-enter the workforce, we need to take care of those who suffer from mental health issues and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

The staggering reality is that the annual suicide rate of veterans is roughly 50 percent higher than the rate among other civilians with similar demographic characteristics. I was proud to support the Clay Hunt Suicide Prevention for American Veterans Act, bipartisan legislation that will help ensure that resources are available to help prevent these tragedies. While this is progress, we still have a long way to go.

As a Member of Congress, I work every day to ensure that policies coming out of Washington are taking care of our military

men and women – including simplifying their transition to civilian life, improving mental health care services, and by ensuring the Department of Veterans Affairs can adequately provide the volume and quality of care that our veterans deserve.

Similarly, I am pleased to support legislation that creates new opportunities for our veterans and their families. I also believe we must continue to work to protect our veterans’ personal information and help those veterans who are most in need. That is why I have voted for bills that incentivize businesses to hire veterans and that make veteran small business ownership easier.

Additionally, I supported legislation that provides a solution to streamline veteran identification, making it easier for veterans to get the services they need and better protecting them from identity theft, and enhances the government’s initiative to end veteran homelessness.

Our country owes a great debt to our veterans, and I am committed to doing anything I can to ensure that veterans receive the most successful and effective care they more than deserve. My staff and

to my adopted family, Moma and Papa Mitchell, for their love and support, guidance and prayers; for Pastor Ken McClund, for all of his prayers and support; for Latisha McAdory for her support with veterans; and the to the staff of the HUD-VASH Program for their help with my housing needs.

To all of the veterans and enlisted men and women, thank you! You are valued and appreciated!

and rancher inquiries come from military veterans.

They have the same needs as other new farmers: access to land, financing and information. But they also bring new issues: disabilities, returning to civilian life, a drive to help fellow veterans, a powerful sense of wanting to be of service to their country.

The Center’s Veteran Farmers Project was launched to provide information, encouragement, connections, and referrals that help beginning farmers and ranchers access land and financing, identify markets, build business plans, and more.

We also connect veteran-farmers with other veterans; to help retain and rebuild bonds with others who have served in the military and help each other overcome the obstacles of building a farm business and returning to civilian life. We refer veteran-farmers to resource providers who

I are here to help any veterans or current service members with their needs and questions regarding the Department of Defense or Department of Veterans Affairs.

If you or a loved one are a veteran having trouble with a VA disability claim, an issue with receiving service medals, or any other related problem, please don’t hesitate to contact my district office at 815-431-9271.

We will do everything we can to help each of our constituents.

I remain committed to supporting those who have already given so much and will continue to fight to ensure the men and women who have served, those who are actively serving, and their families receive the care they deserve. To do anything less would dishonor their service and sacrifice.

Letters to the Editor Veterans past and present The year 2015 started out very trying. On January 1 I learned that my eldest niece had been murdered that day. At the time I was suffering with multiple problems; nightmares, post-traumatic stress disorder, paranoia, flashbacks and very bad feet. I continued attending outpatient group meetings and I didn’t and still don’t hesitate to address my issues and take my medications as directed.

The year took a positive turn. I enrolled in a Parenting Program, enjoyed it, and was greatly helped by it. I am now striving to be, and feel that I am, a positive role model for my son. I have been granted custody of my son Michael and we are very happy together.

I shall forever be eternally grateful to the Department of Veteran’s Affairs for the support they gave; to Ms. Rachael Leon, Foster Care Case Manager;

Farming fits veterans, and veterans fit farming.

Many veterans want to return to small town America to raise their families. And we welcome them home.

However, educational opportunities, off-farm jobs, health services, and young peers are in short supply across much of rural and small town America. That makes networks such as those built through the Center’s Veteran Farmers Project, and the infrastructure and public policies we’re working to create, vitally important to our veterans who want to farm and ranch.

With greater reason, the writing is on the wall

By Nancy Churchill Contributor

R

unning for Vice President in 1980 as a Libertarian was “debilitating,” David Koch confessed on MSNBC’s Morning Joe just last week. Voters just refused to buy what he was selling.

That platform, which might have been relegated to the dustbin of history had the Republicans not sneaked most of its provisions onto a wish list for future implementation, presaged many of the worst policies being advanced by Republicans today.

Having jumped hoops last year to acquire a copy of the 1980 Libertarian Platform from the State Historical Society of Wisconsin, I can provide, verbatim, the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

It assumes an air of entitlement, as if it’s a new constitution being imposed upon Americans without their knowledge or consent, the same sense of entitlement the Koch brothers adopt today in using their billions to undemocratically choose our next

president.

It lays corruption at the feet of government, which it clearly wishes to annihilate. In this telling the private sector is completely above reproach, so long as no one violates the “rights” of others. Notably absent is any clarification about how, without government oversight, violators will be apprehended or brought to justice.

There’s some Good: the state may not oppress the LGBT community, but must accord them “full rights as individuals” (the private sector is exempted). Immigration should have no limitations, with full amnesty extended to anyone who has “entered the country illegally” (though the Immigration and Naturalization Service and Border Patrol should be abolished). Finally, miraculously, women should have the right to abortion.

There’s some Bad: the platform opposes all taxation, and all governmental involvement in mental health of any kind, including “psychiatric or psychological research or treatment,” including the use of taxpayer money

for such services (apparently failing to grasp the irony that without tax revenue there is no “taxpayer money”).

It demands the repeal of all firearms legislation, “the immediate abolition of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms,” and “the repeal of laws banning the concealment of weapons or prohibiting pocket weapons.” Okay, done.

The National Labor Relations Act should be revoked, and all “attempts to regulate private discrimination, including discrimination in employment, housing, and privately owned so-called public accommodations.

The right to trade includes the right not to trade — for any reasons whatsoever.”

The Sixteenth Amendment should be repealed, any tax rate increases or new taxes reversed, and, eventually, all taxation eliminated, along with all legal tender laws and all compulsory governmental units of account.

And there’s some very, very Ugly — the abolishment of: the Department of Energy; the Environmental

Protection Agency; all so-called “consumer protection” legislation which infringes upon “voluntary trade”; the Consumer Product Safety Commission; the Food and Drug Administration and “particularly its policies of mandating specific nutritional requirements, and denying the right of manufacturers to make non-fraudulent claims concerning their products” (without addressing how to detect or penalize fraudulent claims).

Education should be privatized, except for “tax-credits for tuition and ... other [education] expenditures” (yet, paradoxically, “the repeal of all taxes on the income or property of private schools, whether profit or non-profit” would ensure there are no “tax-credits”!).

America’s railroads, all public roads and national highways should be privatized. “[All] government welfare, relief projects, and ‘aid to the poor’ programs” should be eliminated, along with the Occupational Safety and

Health Act. “[T]he fraudulent, virtually bankrupt, and increasingly oppressive Social Security system” should be repealed, and “the governmental Postal Service” abolished.

“We urge the repeal of federal campaign finance laws, and the immediate abolition of the despotic Federal Election Commission”; and finally, whatever land was seized by the U.S. government should be returned to its rightful owners (without grasping the irony that all land once belonged to the Indians!).

David Koch was surprised that voters in 1980 did not jump at this “opportunity” to eliminate government and turn it over to oligarchs like himself. How times change!

The writing is on the wall. Republicans seem intent on implementing much of this platform that will destroy America. Will electing Bernie Sanders for President save us? No. But electing him will help us save ourselves. Only we can do it. And we’d better get to it.

At the end of the day, we’re still not getting ahead

By Gregory John Campbell Guest Contributor

T

he American people are still not getting ahead politically, economically or democratically, because they’re still putting their trust, taxes and votes in two establishment parties that have no intention in seeing them get ahead.

And if the American people remain idiotic enough to continue electing establishment candidates like Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush, they deserve to be betrayed by them again.

The fundamental reason for this pathetic disconnection from their own political, economic and democratic self-interests is because they still believe these parties “represent” them, which is clearly false if they paused long enough from their social network addictions to think about this. But as Americans

don’t think linearly or historically anymore, but only respond emotionally and digitally; don’t behave as citizens, but as consumers and prefer being entertained, rather than informed, is it any wonder they and their country are where they are today? No, not at all, because it makes perfect sense when they spend more time consuming, competing, screening and groping, than thinking, learning, acting and growing.

Howard Zinn, in his fine book, A People’s History of the United States, describes how the establishment parties during the Civil War sidetracked the broad labor unrest that should have produced significant political and economic changes in the country then, but didn’t, when he wrote: “…And on these issues the political parties took positions, offered choices, [and] obscured the

fact that the political system itself and the wealthy classes it represented were responsible for the problems they now offered to solve.”

It’s no different today, because both establishment parties take positions, offer choices and obscure the fact that they and the ruling power elite they serve are still responsible for the same problems they now offer to solve again. And if the American people won’t recognize this, and change it, by not voting for either establishment candidate in 2016— Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush—they deserve the broken country these parties produced and they permitted by not doing so.

And after everything that’s politically said, not learned, Hillary and Jeb are expansionist Wall St. corporatists and militarists who will serve the large transnational

corporations and the military-industrial-complex only. For all else is just campaign rhetoric to disguise the fact that when they walk into the White House in 2017, they’ll walk out of the Main St. lives, needs and interests of the American people instantly.

Donald Trump is no different.

And in as much as he could offer changes to the country and the establishment right, it’s not likely he’ll do so when they put him to the task. Trump is a corporate CEO, rich and a strong advocate for military intervention, but as long as Americans allow any president to maintain a large strong military, when they need a large strong economy, they’ll remain in poverty, fight eternally and never have a middle class country.

FDR realized this and changed

our nation for the better. So will Bernie Sanders, as his socialist politics only affirms he has better principles and polices for our nation than corporate money and elite power. But do the American people? Because if they don’t, income inequality and opportunity inequality will remain permanently because that is what both establishment parties and candidates embody.

In 2016 cast a “positive” vote for or “write in” the only candidate willing to implement the real interests of the American people—Bernie Sanders. Because if we vote the establishment candidates in again, we will never see this nation change politically or improve economically for us or our children, but Bernie will. And remember, stupid is as stupid does, so choose what you want to be in 2016.

‘It’s no different today, because both establishment parties take positions, offer choices and obscure the fact that they and the ruling power elite they serve are still responsible for the same problems they now offer to solve again. ‘

Your Horoscope

By Denise Guzzardo Week of Nov. 11-17, 2015

This Week: Take advantage of the new moon in Scorpio’s energy November 11. After that date it will be easy to gain momentum and gather resources from numerous elements. This is a time where we can gain momentum and create expansions that will manifest by the full moon in active Gemini on November 25. Thanksgiving Day will provide us all with plenty to be grateful for. Mark that on your calendar as a pivotal point within all of our lives and pay attention to what aligns prior to that time frame. Enjoy!

Aries (March 21 to April 19) — Long-distance communication or travel may be on your agenda at this time. This may come as an unexpected surprise or a shocking emergency.

In either case you will need to follow through and pick up the pieces for those that are too physically exhausted to go on any further. In the end you will find that you have learned a lot from this endeavor. This is a memory that you can take with you to eternity, Aries.

Taurus (April 20 to May 20)­— Romantic elements may be put to the test early on this week. Take into consideration all of the aspects and observe outside influences. By week’s end you have the ability to put everything back into place. Until then think before you speak. You do not want to put yourself in a position of having to backtrack all of your thoughts and feelings, Taurus.

Gemini (May 21 to June 20) — A love from your past may resurface during this time frame allowing you to reconsider your stand on the issue. Perhaps you may have been a little hesitant to clear the air with this person face to face. Your internal compass will guide you in the direction you need to take regarding affairs of the heart. Midweek provides you with a fabulous opportunity to shine within your career sector. All eyes are on you, Gemini.

Cancer (June 21 to July 22) — Your intuition has proven to be true at this time.

Now all you need to do is pick up the pieces and figure out where you are going from here.

Health matters with friends and family may be creating additional worry or concern at this time. Take on only what you are physically capable of and not one ounce more. You need to put yourself first at this time, Cancer.

Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22) — A lucky break arrives this week in the form of a financial element. Perhaps a client or family member comes into a windfall. They may be more than willing to share their good fortune with you.

If by week’s end you see no evidence of this, be patient, this aspect is on the way shortly.

You will reap the benefits, as well as have the opportunity to celebrate the good fortune of

another, Leo. Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) — A big-ticket item or a major sale is about to take place at this time. You can receive the blessings that you are entitled to at this time. You have put in a tremendous amount of hard work over the last few months and now it is time for you to shine. The payoff is sweet and it’s all yours for the taking, Virgo.

Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) — This feeling of uneasiness will lift as the week begins to progress. What we bring voice to will become relevant, so speak with thought and purpose.

People will be crawling out of the woodwork to connect with you. Try not to become overwhelmed, instead step up to the plate and accept every single expression of love and validation. Who cares where it’s coming from, it’s yours for the taking, Libra.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) — You have good reasons to count your blessings, so make a habit out of it. Let’s start by making it a little more difficult to go into a negative mindset than in the recent past. Trust me you have had your reasons, but now is the time to live for the moment. The clock is ticking, and life is passing us all by. You are on your game and able to receive the gifts that life has presented, Scorpio.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) — Make time for friends and family this week. Your schedule has been a bit of a pain. However; you’re not gaining any more ground by spin-

ning in a circle with the mundane tasks that are always a part of your scene. Take a break, invite loved ones around you to exchange energy, break bread, and catch up. You will have no regrets, Sag. Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) — Romance is in the best of space this week. You can see the future and it looks as though you have found your fit. This may take time to manifest but you’re on the right path now. Midweek you make a connection for a long-term goal.

Career is accentuated at this time. Lucky breaks are in store for you now, Cap. Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) — Expansions with career and acceptance of your gifts will become apparent at this time. New faces and new elements will ignite your creative side and line your pocketbook with the best possible windfalls. To be generously paid for something that you love to do is everyone’s wish and everyone’s entitlement. It’s your turn to shine now, Aquarius.

Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20) — You may feel this overwhelming desire to play cupid with a friend or family member, but slow down a bit here. You don’t want to rock a potential love boat by pushing an issue. Trust me, they will figure it out all on their own. By week’s end finances are in the black, now you can breathe a bit, Pisces.

Mr Green Car

The evolution of Ford’s true classic: Mustang

By Allen Penticoff

I

Contributor

recently had a chance to drive a 1966 Ford Mustang Fastback. It really brought back memories from high school days when a friend had an identical black Mustang with the 289 cubic inch (4.7 liter) V-8 engine with 4-speed manual transmission. Still the same thrill. My new friend uses his 1966 Mustang as a daily driver, so he was not at all reluctant to let me take it for a little spin. From the tinny sounding door closing, to the big steering wheel, and knob controls – the Mustang of that era was a simple car with lots of charm. It handled well and accelerates with throaty enthusiasm. My friend tells me that its one driving fault lies in having very poor traction on wet roads. That and his ever present need to talk to admirers wherever he goes.

Another friend of mine, Greg, drives a 2013 Mustang every day. While he does not get the same admirers as the classic ’66 Mustang, Ford has brought back the original sporty looks and style of this “pony car” for folks to enjoy driving in modern times. He too allowed me to try out his car for a comparison with the ’66 Mustang.

The production Mustang debuted in March 1964, sold as a 1965, but many called it a 1964-1/2.

Based on the Ford Falcon compact car chassis, the Mustang employed a long hood, set back cabin and large engine to create a sporty youth oriented look that kicked off imitations to quickly come by other makers – the Camaro, Firebird, Barracuda, AMX and many others. The first Mustang (reportedly named after the fighter airplane, not the horse – although the mustang horse badging has been a constant through the Mustang production run) was an immediate success. Following a trend throughout the 1960s and 1970s – sporty American made cars tended to grow in size and weight – with performance maintained by ever larger engines. Gas was cheap – like 35 cents per gallon.

However, once the first oil embargo hit Amer-

ica in 1973, the big car was suddenly persona non-grata. Some of the big cars disappeared, but for the Mustang, it simply got smaller. While a popular selling car, the 1974 Mustang II rather lacked the pizzazz that the early cars had. These were the generation 2, 3 and 4 cars that were not so Mustang-y to many of us geezer motorheads.

The generation 5 cars of 2007-2014 were very much retro-Mustangs in style, size and performance and welcomed with brisk sales. 2015 brought generation 6, now a continuous production of 51 years. Mustangs have always been available as convertibles and a choice of manual or automatic transmission. They make great fun rental cars – I’ve had that experience too.

Needless to say, the Mustang has evolved over this time. Greg’s 2013 is typical. It has great driver comfort – still tiny back seats – great handling and excellent acceleration even with the smaller V-6 engine. In comparison with the 1966 Mustang,

the V-6 2013 is very much on par or better with acceleration and it too has the same throaty exhaust note. However, with the 2013 you get the advantages of traction control, modern electronic ignition, fuel injection and computer controlled engine performance, better handling and braking.

Greg’s 2013 has a six-speed manual transmission – in keeping with the Mustang’s sporty driving persona. The shifting is smooth, but sixth gear is really overdrive for flat-level cruising. I found the engine would strain and drone when forced to hold 60 mph in hilly driving. It was much happier in fifth gear during such driving. Fast passing could be done in fifth, or a more lively drop down into fourth. At the time I drove it, the valet key limited top speed to 80 mph and nagged whenever hard acceleration was taking place. Greg had not intended for me to drive his Mustang with such restrictions – those are for his sons when they drive it – nonetheless it was more than fast

enough and capable of much better.

Mustangs have come with a variety of engines over the decades, even back in 1964 it was available with an economical 170 cubic inch (2.8 liter) 101 horsepower inline 6-cylinder growing to mammoth 429 cubic inch V-8s and 670 horsepower in modern supercharged Shelby Cobras and Roush Mustangs.

But I won’t go into those. I would promote the purchase and use of a Mustang with the powerful new small engines, either the 310 horsepower turbocharged Eco-boost 2.3 liter inline 4 cylinder or the 3.7 liter V-6 with 300 horsepower – either of these is putting out more power than the classic 289 V-8 and with much better fuel economy. For 2015/2016 the EPA rates the 2.3 turbo-4 at 22 city/32 hwy (with S6 automatic) and the 3.7 V-6 with 19 city/28 hwy mpg. Greg’s 2013 V-6 is rated at 19/31 mpg – which he does get. Fuel economy is essentially the same whether a manual or automatic transmission. Mustang – fun and fuel economy in one package.

By Julia Michniewicz, N.D. Her name was Julieann and she came to me after suffering years from depression and fatigue which developed after the birth of her second child. Julieann had a long history of cold hands and feet and sensitivity to cold. She was experiencing significant hair loss, was constipated and had severe muscle aches. Even after a full night sleep she never felt rested.

Julieann now had allergies, recurring sinus infections which lead to antibiotics and more antibiotics which now lead to headaches. Due to the over use of antibiotics she was having abdominal cramping, bloating and was craving sugars, bread, pasta and whatever sweet she could put her hands on.

Since her pregnancy, Julieann’s menstrual cycles had become irregular.

She had gained 35 pounds over the past years and had difficulty losing weight.

She had lost all sexual desire and felt that her mind was in a “brain fog”.

Julieann had sought out numerous physicians but to no avail. They all told her she was depressed and prescribed antidepressants. A friend of hers told her to call Julia for there are natural alternative treatment for her problems so Julieann called me for an evaluation.

Julieann’s name could easily be erased and replaced with thousands of other women. So many doctors make you feel that you are a hypochondriac or you need to be on depressive medications. When they cannot figure out what is wrong with you then there is the script for

antidepressants. I explained to Julieann that her symptoms were very common to women in her age group. What Julieann was going through was an imbalance in her female hormones and was affecting many of her hormonal organs. It was the change in her hormones that triggered her allergy disorder which in turn led to a recurrent of sinus infections. The antibiotics which she had been talking for so long killed her normal bacteria in her gut and was allowing the yeast challenge to grow and wanting her to keep feeding it with her high sugar and yeast diet.

After doing an evaluation of Julieann she needed some natural adrenal and thyroid support along with the needed G.I. support. I educated her on her diet explaining what foods she was eating that she was allergic to and what foods she was eating that was turning into sugar. I told her no matter how hard you are trying not to eat sugars you are craving sugars due to the fact you do not have enough good bacteria in your gut.

A learning moment in the Mizzou mess

Does one president’s ouster offer lessons to universities grappling with a racist past?

By A.D. Carson Clemson University

I

n the wake of the resignation of University of Missouri System President Tim Wolfe, much is being written about the power of collective action among student groups to affect positive change on their campuses.

The Black Lives Matter movement has demonstrated the same. Young people are bringing to light issues in overlooked communities across the country.

I’m forced to think about not only the histories of protests at American colleges and universities, in general, but specifically about the campus where I attend school as a graduate student in South Carolina: Clemson University.

Similar to the University of Missouri, we are proud to call ourselves the Tigers. We also pride ourselves on our competitive football traditions. Ours is the number one ranked football team in the country. I also imagine we have similar issues with regard to the events that led the Missouri students to organize for change on their campus.

When major sports networks show our team running down the hill onto the football field taking part in “The Most Exciting 25 Seconds In College Football,” they show only part of a complicated picture.

At the hill’s apex is former Vice President, South Carolina Senator and slave owner John Calhoun’s historic Fort Hill Plantation house, overlooking an exploitative circumstance for which no case needs to be made.

The building used as a backdrop for the scenic South Carolina campus shown on television as they cut to commercials — the one named for virulent racist and white supremacist Benjamin Tillman — makes the situation all the worse.

The public record is pretty clear on Benjamin Tillman.

Search his name and you’ll find quote upon quote demonstrating his disdain for black people and his calls to kill them.

Yet, come to campus, or watch ESPN’s “College Gameday,” and you’ll see his name adorning the most recognizable building associated with Clemson.

He not only openly advocated murdering black people, he participated in the Hamburg Massacre of 1876 during which his paramilitary group, the Redshirts, murdered six black men. In the same year, black State Senator Simon Coker was murdered

by Tillman’s men as he knelt in prayer.

Ironically, South Carolina recently suffered a tragedy eerily reminiscent of this violent past with the killing of South Carolina State Senator Clementa Pinckney and eight other members of the church who were participating in Bible study. Clemson memorialized the victims with wreaths in front of the building named for Tillman.

Clemson students have been organizing over the past two years to get the attention of the administration focused on issues of racism, diversity and inclusion.

Students and staff have held several demonstrations and

teach-ins and hosted speakers to help spread the word and hold the administrators accountable for their promise to make sure everyone feels a part of the “Clemson Family.”

In an effort to raise awareness about these issues, students started the See The Stripes campaign, which simply asks our fellow community members to try to see our mascot – The Tiger – as it should be seen, rather than “Solid Orange,” which is the term often used around here to describe the “Clemson Family.”

The student body, faculty and administrators have also struggled to come up with ways to address the tensions over building names across campus.

But as recently as a week before the semester started, there was a Confederate flag rally directly in front of the building named for Tillman during which the flag was raised over the statue of Thomas Green Clemson. The building was also vandalized with spray paint with “RIP Senator Coker” and “RIP Senator Pinckney.”

The institution was silent.

There were no words of consolation for any students who might feel put off by such actions and very little movement on doing anything about the name of the building honoring one of American history’s most notorious racists.

This season, as we hosted ESPN’s “College Gameday” again, in the background, iconic as ever, stood the clock tower, the spire, known all too well.

And the silence.

I’m struck by the irony of celebrating the future number one ranked football team in the country, a team with many black players and coaches, on national TV in front of a building named for a man who believed them all to be subhuman and

not worthy of the rights of white people. Or those players and coaches running down a hill atop which stands John C Calhoun’s plantation house.

This is all the more striking because “86 percent of college football players live below the federal poverty line.” I am aware that Clemson’s football coach, Dabo Swinney, who relatively recently received an “eight-year, $27.15 million contract extension,” wants to have no conversation about paying the athletes “because there’s enough entitlement in the world as it is.”

And I wonder how our students who are athletes feel in the wake of what has happened at Missouri.

If, as Shakespeare writes, “that which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet,” I suppose that which we call the “legacies of racism and white supremacy” feel like business as usual.

But at least we can acknowledge, or contextualize it.

That could be done by honoring people like Senator Coker and Senator Pinckney. Or, perhaps, honoring the countless enslaved people, sharecroppers and “convict” laborers who contributed to the institution. We can recognize Benjamin Tillman as a founding trustee while also acknowledging that without them we would not have our “High Seminary of Learning.”

What if the Clemson Tigers decided to do what the Missouri Tigers did? What if, along with the groups of students, staff and faculty who have made it known they would appreciate a building name change, student athletes refused to participate in their sport until they were heard?

Would it still take the board of trustees six months to act if this football season was on the line?

Major League Baseball

A flamboyant bench move kicks off Sox winter

By James Fegan The Catbird Seat

T

he White Sox named Rick Renteria as their bench coach Tuesday.

Good. That is a good hire. The White Sox somehow managed to find a guy who checks all their boxes (experienced, analytics-friendly, bilingual, history of positive player development, etc.) despite the compromised and potentially toxic nature of their job opening to serve as the right-hand man to someone who could be doomed. Thank you, Cubs, for spitting a great candidate back into the market in a totally flukey manner. It has truly worked out for both franchises. It’s been less than ideal for Renteria himself, but this is a good way to work himself back toward another top gig. Perhaps a very good way.

•GM Rick Hahn was on 670AM The Score over the weekend and had this to say: “Ideally you’re adding younger talent that you can control for a longer period of time that you can grow and be part of a sustainable core.’”

That could by one interpretation be identifying the flaws in free agency, or also pointing the target toward Justin Heyward and Justin Upton,

who are both younger than Jose Abreu. Those are extremely expensive examples, but the point is it’s not an absolute, and I really hope they use some of that wiggle room, because if they are focused on trades like Van Schouwen suggests, they don’t have enough prospect depth to paper over the holes in their roster.

•There still haven’t been any significant free agent signings, so ‘throw things at the wall’ free agency projections are at peak readability. MLB Trade Rumors recently posted theirs, and they have the White Sox slapping down $100 million for a Howie Kendrick-Asdrubal Cabrera-David Frese infield. Unsexy! And also not in line with what Rick Hahn was saying in his comments. I read this and hated it, and then thought about it for a while.

Sign three OK-ish to slightly-above average 30-somethings to be competent and you’re bound to get at least one dud, but the core concept here is trying make sure you have someone at least playable from positions where the Sox would otherwise struggle to field anyone replacement-level.

As much as superstars rule the league, Sox teams have been equally failed by their inability to avoid

National Hockey League

Panarin moves onto Calder Cup shortlists

By Adam Hess Contributor

L

ast week, Edmonton Oilers star rookie Connor McDavid suffered a broken clavicle after taking a hit and falling into the end boards in a game against the Philadelphia Flyers. McDavid was one of the most hyped draft prospects in the history of the NHL, and took to the league like a fish to water.

He was proving to be a lock for the Calder Trophy as Rookie of the Year until his injury and subsequent months on injured reserve essentially made it impossible for that to happen, opening up the door for many of the other skilled NHL rookies to take that crown.

The new favorite for the Calder Trophy in terms of Vegas odds is Buffalo’s Jack Eichel, who was the second overall pick in this past summer’s draft. But the rookie who is playing the best right now and is most deserving of the rookie of the year award wears number 72 for your Chicago Blackhawks.

Artemi Panarin is 23-years old, older than most NHL rookies when they enter into the league. Panarin came over from Russia’s KHL

Panarin

where he was a star, and his play has been nothing short of elite to start the year. He leads all NHL rookies in scoring, with 15 points (4 goals, 11 assists) in his first 15 games.

Panarin is set up to carry that success through the rest of the season, barring injury. He has played most of the season on lines with either Patrick Kane or Jonathan Toews, so he doesn’t have to try to carry around bad linemates. He’s been with skilled players that draw a lot of attention themselves, allowing him space to make

punting multiple spots in the order. Actually fielding a competent starting-nine, and seeing how far Sale-Rodon-Quintana could drag you would at least be an interesting test.

You’d still have that whole DH problem, and be hoping that one of Trayce Thompson and Avisail Garcia is actually a MLB right fielder, but spending a lot of money to spread league average all over the diamond is more interesting than it initially appears. I’d still rather not.

Jon Heyman has free agent contract value predictions, and while he wasn’t projecting teams for everyone, the only guy he linked the Sox to was as one of many thirsty souls chasing Alex Gordon.

•The weekend passed without the White Sox trotting out an inexpensive multi-year deal with Alexei Ramirez, and their pledge to keep in touch with him is sound more like the standard-issue lip service for any departing free agent. This isn’t a bad move until the offseason ends with an even worse shortstop, or the Sox spend resources improving their shortstop and run out of juice before they can address their entire roster, leaving holes in the lineup worse than Ramirez’s 2015 campaign. This includes dedicating an entire season of PA’s to Avisail Garcia or Adam LaRoche with little backup, then shrugging with confusion when they flop and ruin the season.

So it’s probably a bad move. But it might not be.

Rick Hahn is a good GM. If he was independently a billionaire, the Sox might be killing the game right now.

•There was a brief moment of light in our plays with his elite talent.

One way that this linemate situation may work against Panarin’s case is the attention that Eichel will get in Buffalo. The success of the Sabres will often be tied to the success of Eichel, due to the grand attention he’s already received, and the talent that he is.

On the other hand, Panarin’s success will often be tied to the success of the Blackhawks and his linemates. His talent is evident to many, but playing on a team with so many other talented players will dim the spotlight he receives, especially in comparison to McDavid and Eichel.

Panarin will definitely need to keep close to the scoring pace he’s at now in order to solidify himself as the lock for the Calder, but he certainly has the skill and teammates to help him do so.

If he does keep up his point-per-game pace and end the season with around 80 points, it should be no question that he wins the award.

More likely, though, is that Panarin will finish the season with around 20 goals and 60 points, which should still be more than enough to earn him the award. Regardless, the name factor that Eichel has should not play into the conversation.

Panarin has been the best rookie thus far this season, and he should be considered the favorite to win the Calder Trophy.

baseball-starved hellscape Saturday night when the Arizona Fall League (AFL) Fall Stars game got carried on MLB Network. Fringy, super-speedy outfield prospect Adam Engel started in center field for the West team, collected two hits, walked twice (which in the AFL can often and did mean staring at someone miss the plate with 95 mph heat four times in a row), stole a base and scored twice.

It was a nice little showing for a guy who’s had a hot AFL (.404/.525/.574 in all of 14 games) and otherwise doesn’t get brought up a lot on organizational top prospect lists, since he’d need something bordering on a developmental miracle to be a second division, defense-first starting centerfielder.

Friend of the site Mauricio Rubio, a newly-minted prospect writer for the exciting new venture 2080Baseball.com, was in Arizona this weekend, and while he can’t tell us Engel will transcend his “maybe 4th outfielder” outlook, he did have some nice things to say: “Adam Engel has a quick swing geared towards gap power and he pairs it with definite speed. Tools for a solid hit tool.”

Definitely keep an eye out for 2080 Baseball when it officially launches and read everything Mau writes because he’s great.

Soccer

Heading in the right direction A new policy from the game’s governing body in the U.S. is set to fundamentally shift youth soccer

By Jon Townsend Contributor

and Shane Nicholson

N

Managing Editor

othing sends a message quite like trauma, but a new a mandate from the U.S. Soccer Federation (USSF) has sent waves through the sport of soccer.

America’s governing body issued new guidelines Monday centered around player safety, effectively removing heading from the game for children 10-and-under while limiting the amount of heading in practice for children ages of 11 to 13.

Monday’s announcement follows on from the resolution of the Mehr youth soccer concussion lawsuit. The defendants in that litigation battle were none other than USSF; United States Youth Soccer Association; American Youth Soccer Organization (AYSO); U.S. Club Soccer; and the California Youth Soccer Association.

The outcome of that case was clear: the time has come to take headers out of youth soccer. And, perhaps shockingly for those more used to an organizing body that sits on its hands more often than not, USSF came out with a strong shot: “The United States Soccer Federation and the other youth member defendants, with input from counsel for the plaintiffs, have developed a sweeping youth soccer initiative designed to: “(a) improve concussion awareness and education among youth coaches, referees, parents and players; “(b) implement more uniform concussion management and return-to-play protocols for youth players suspected of having suffered a concussion; “(c) modify the substitution rules to insure such rules do not serve as an impediment to the evaluation of players who may have suffered a concussion during games “(d) eliminate heading for children 10 and under and limit heading in practice for children between the ages of 11 and 13.”

“We are proud to be leaders in the areas of concussion education and management,” U.S. Soccer CEO/Secretary General Dan Flynn said in a statement. “The development of a player

safety initiative was under way before the current lawsuit was filed.”

On the safety side, much has yet to be determined concerning the links between heading the ball and concussions, though experts agree that repeatedly striking your head against a heavy object is detrimental to one’s health.

The societal concerns steeped in skepticism related to the connections between heading and concussions transcend the American perception of not only soccer but also speak to the larger ethos of the American sporting landscape, one which champions physicality over technique.

Sadly, limiting the discussion to traumatic brain injury only goes to hide a larger concern: that the repeated act of heading a ball can cause just as many problems in the long term as any single concussion.

Anyone familiar with the ongoing dialogues surrounding the American brand of football has heard of CTE, or chronic traumatic encephalopathy. To put such a debilitating disease in as simple terms as possible, all those little hits – in

this case, all those headers – can add up to something horrible for the athlete down the line.

A study at Purdue University has shown that such minor collisions in young athletes can modify behavior over the course of just a single sports season.

So yes, while concussion is a valid concern and one that USSF (and FIFA) need to address, chalking up the decision to remove headers from the youth levels should be treated as a solution to more than just a singular problem.

At the same, it makes sense to not only implement policies to restructure how the game is coached and played at the youngest ages to not only protect players but also to improve the standard of soccer from the ground-up. US Soccer’s policy seems to, on its face, address both.

Heading is, at its most basic, a rather simple skill: see the ball, put your head on the ball. The problem from the coaching and development standpoint rests in the fact that, because it is an easy skill to teach, it becomes a crutch for under-qualified coaches across the nation.

USSF’s directive will now put the impetus on learning to use one’s chest to play the ball, or learning to bring an uncontested ball at midfield down to the feet. Instead of simply teaching players to effectively bomb a pass back up the pitch with their heads we will now have to begin teaching them skills that the rest of the world works from the youngest stages of development.

For the long term goals of USSF, namely winning a World Cup, Monday’s decision could bear fruit well beyond keeping young players safe.

By USSF mandating a protocol with player safety in mind, real progress only comes through actual implementation of the mandate. The first hurdle is shifting the youth soccer paradigm from a “win at all costs” approach to “learn how to actually play” approach. The fallout of this mandate has the potential to spark fundamental changes to the coaching and pedagogical methodologies that have historically been employed in the U.S. Improving the level and depth of the holistic talent pool needs to start at the grassroots level and with leadership from the top-down. USSF along with the youth soccer organizations and associations can start working toward literally changing the way the game is taught and played for the youngest players.

Coaching education within the United States Soccer Federation and The National Soccer Coaches Association of America will have to restructure the best practices for players aged 13 and under. If done correctly, the safety of the players will further be made a priority in relation to head injuries while at the same time crafting more complete players for generations to come.

With the announcement of the policy comes the issues of governance relating to the mandate.

How US Soccer and the supporting organizations will assess clubs, coaches and teams that fail to adhere to the initiative remains to be seen.

As it stands, until US Soccer assures the soccer-playing public that it will, in fact, hold clubs, coaches and teams accountable, it’s unlikely that rapid changes will be seen.

The reality is this initiative seems to have resulted from lawsuits and injuries sustained to countless young players around the nation. Regardless of its genesis, it remains imperative that coaches, parents, and players continue to push US Soccer and hold the Federation accountable as this initial announcement is but one step of many that must take place to see a positive shift.

The battles US Soccer will face are deeply rooted, both systemic and societal. Questions will remain concerning the state of youth soccer in the United States going forward, many of which there are no larger answers for. Fundamentally, a shift in attitude, coaching methodology, societal attitudes towards the sport, and systems of play must move dramatically and in unison for any meaningful impact to take place.

Tales From The Trough

GREAT 8

IceHogs push out points streak as strong start continues

By Todd Reicher Columnist

Things continue to fall in place for the Rockford IceHogs this week as the team goes 1-0-1 in week five to bring their point streak to eight straight games.

Rockford’s first contest this week came on the road against the Grand Rapids Griffins, who knocked Rockford out of the playoffs in five games last year.

After coming off back-to-back shutouts against the Iowa Wild, Rockford would only surrender one goal against the Griffins, thanks to a 40 save effort from Michael Leighton as the ‘Hogs defeated the Griffins 4-1.

It was Martin Frk who chimed in first with his third goal of the season 2:44 into the contest. The forward found a loose puck in the slot and bounced in over Leighton’s blocker for the early lead.

From then on it was all Rockford, at least on the scoring sheet. In his first game back after being reassigned by the Chicago Blackhawks, Ryan Hartman potted his fourth goal of the season, assisted by Brandon Mashinter and Mark McNeill.

The second period was all Griffins, with Grand Rapids outshooting Rockford 16-3, but the only goal scored was an unassisted shorthanded tally

by P.C. Labrie.

In his first game for the IceHogs since 2010, Bryan Bickell tallied his first marker this season with a redirect from a Ville Pokka blast, to put Rockford ahead 3-1. The power play marker scored at 8:31 of the third period gave Rockford a little breathing room.

Nolan Valleau put the dagger in at 14:43 of the period to give Rockford a commanding 4-1 lead.

Leighton shut the door the rest of the way, making 14 more third period saves.

The following night Rockford would host the Milwaukee Admirals for the final game at the BMO Harris Bank Center until November 22.

After a well-fought bout between former teammates Labrie and Cody Bass, the IceHogs would tally the games first goal off the stick of Mashinter.

As the puck bounced around in the crease, Mashinter gathered it in and flipped it into the net for his fourth of the season.

Jamie Devane scored his first of the season off a rebound by Mark Visentin to knot the score at 1-1.

At one time Rockford held a 12-3 scoring advantage, but could not beat Marek Mazanec a second time.

A power play marker midway through the second gave the Ads their first lead of the game, thanks to Adam Payerl.

Rockford finally evened the score at 8:50 of the third period when Pokka beat Mazanec five-hole as he came in transition deep into the offensive zone.

A costly penalty with 1:01 remaining in overtime sealed the ‘Hogs fate. While playing 3-on-3 overtime, and in transition to the offensive zone, Rockford was flagged for a delay of game penalty, putting Milwaukee at a 4-on-3 advantage for the rest of the game.

With a hard one-timer that deflected off Visentin’s pads and into the net, Trevor Murphy sealed the extra point for the Ads as Milwaukee would win 3-2.

Rockford only plays two games this week, a weekend series in Iowa against the Wild. Both games will start at 7 p.m. The IceHogs next home game will not take place until Sunday, November 22 when they host the Lake Erie Monsters. This will also be the night where the Stanley Cup comes to town, as fans can get their picture taken with the celebrated trophy.

his 22nd pro career fourth-quarter comeback.

Rivers quickly moved the ball into Chicago territory with a series of mid-range passes, but a pair of sacks by Lamarr Houston – who until this point had only a single sack on the year – and a solid show of passing defense by Tracy Porter quelled the comeback attempt and gave the ball back to Cutler to go through the last-second formalities.

With his second-quarter touchdown pass to Martellus Bennett, Cutler sits alone with the most touchdown passes thrown as a Bears quarterback. His 138th touchdown pass in a Chicago uniform broke the 55-year-old record formerly held by Sid Luckman.

On the more ignominious side, Cutler also closed in on Luckman for the most interceptions thrown as a Bear as he was returned for a touchdown by Chargers cornerback Jason Verrett. This was the second turnover by Cutler in Chargers territory, as he also was stripped for a fumble on the team’s second drive of the game in what was a rough first half for the Bears.

“We were killing ourselves,” Cutler said. “At halftime we talked about sustaining drives, not hurting ourselves, eating up yards and being efficient. We were doing some good stuff out there and we had a pretty good beat on what they were doing, so it was just a matter of us finishing drives.”

Cutler wasn’t the only Bear to suffer under the prime-time lights. Kicker Robbie Gould, in an uncharacteristic bout of wildness, missed two field goals in a game for only the third time in his career. Adding in his miss against Minnesota a week ago, he now has missed three in a row, an

unexpected slide for the team’s all-time scoring leader.

will be fine. He’s a pro, so we’ll be fine.”

But Chicago ultimately showed the guts and gusto needed to fight through for a tough win on the road. “This win was very big,” said tight end Martellus Bennett. “In a game like that, where we pull it out at the end, it was a huge win.”

The Bears hit the road again this week to face the St. Louis Rams (12 p.m. Sunday, CBS). The Rams come into the matchup with a 4-4 record on the season, hoping to bounce back after a 21-18 overtime loss to the Minnesota Vikings this past Sunday.
