By an 8-0 vote the Illinois Health Facilities Planning and Review board approved MercyRockford’s new hospital on the east side of town. More than 100 people signed up to speak at the meeting in Bollingbrook Tuesday. Critics said that Mercy’s plan would leave the west side of Rockford without any reasonable access to top health care facilities. An official with OSF Health Care, operators of the Saint Anthony Medical Center on East State Street, said there was “No need, no justification” for Mercy’s plan, saying that the company’s claims that it will be able to bring in more than $20 million from Wisconsin a pipe dream. But Mercy CEO Javon Bea claimed that the west side “will not lose anything” despite the current Rockton Avenue location shedding nearly half of its ER capacity in the plan. Bea said that the cost to upgrade Rockford Memorial would be more than $600 million. The new facility on East Riverside Drive is expected to cost $400 million.

Assistant Deputy Chief of Police Patrick Hoey assumed control of the Rockford Police Department, taking up the roll of interim chief following the departure of Chet Epperson. “I have just returned from a ten-week training at the FBI Academy and I was proud to say to my fellow participants while I was there, that everything they are talking about doing, we have already done,” Hoey said. “We have put programs into place that the federal government is just talking about requiring, and we have built better relationships with our minority and marginalized communities because of our continuous proactive outreach and communication.” Hoey will remain in the position until a permanent replacement for Epperson is named.

City Beat Jeff Street bridge reopens next week Work on the Jefferson Street bridge is set to wrap up the week of Thanksgiving and should be open to downtown traffic either on the holiday or Black Friday, ahead of this year’s Stroll on State festivities. “We’ve moved forward with projects like this and South Main By Shane Street in what’s a terriNicholson ble economic climate for the state right now,” said Mayor Larry Morrissey, “and we’ve done it on schedule.” Parts of the bridge will have to be revisited in the spring due to the advanced deterioration of the structure, according to City Engineer Matt Vitner. But he says that work is only expected to take a few weeks and will wrap up in May of 2016. Jeff Street repairs cost $1.4 million and took just three months to complete. Estimates had placed a $50 million price tag on replacing the bridge, which carries 9,500 vehicles a day across the river. n Next on the agenda: North Main Street, which Morrissey feels will complete a vital north-south link on the west side of town. Utility work has already begun, with poles being replaced by underground services and outdated sewer fixtures getting an upgrade. “You’ve got to look at it–where we’ve had Perryville on the east–this will be the first time in my lifetime that the whole west side will be connected by a four-lane road the whole way across,” the mayor told the Times. n Both of those projects, part of the larger Capital Improvement Program (CIP), have been a boost for the city in the midst of an uncertain economic climate in the state. Thanks to the 1 percent sales tax, set to return to the ballot next year, the CIP has been able to move forward even without state funds for crucial infrastructure projects. n One issue still plaguing downtown: parking, and for the servers, bartenders and kitchen staff of the State Street district’s restaurants it can become a costly problem. “Some of my people, they’re having to go out and move their car two, three, sometimes four times during a shift,” one downtown bar manager told the Times. “It’s ridiculous. People from all over the city come down here and spend their money, but a lot of it is going right back out of my employee’s pockets in parking tickets. We’ve got to find a solution to this.” The new downtown sports center, now with a $1.9 million nameplate thanks to UW Health, will put an even tighter squeeze on an already stretched parking situation for workers. “As more retail comes–more events come– it’s going to become a massive issue,” another downtown owner said. “We’re going to have to figure something out, because the more people we start bringing downtown the harder it’s going to be on the people serving them.”

State

Rauner closes door on refugees

By Shane Nicholson Managing Editor

Governor Bruce Rauner announced Monday a suspension of the acceptance of Syrian refugees in Illinois following Friday’s terrorist attacks in Paris that left 129 dead. “Our nation and our state have a shared history of providing safe-haven for those displaced by conflict, but the news surrounding the Paris terror attacks reminds us of the all-too-real security threats facing America,” Rauner said in a statement. “We must find a way to balance our tradition as a state welcoming of refugees while ensuring the safety and security of our citizens. “Therefore, the state of Illinois will temporarily suspend accepting new Syrian refugees and consider all of our legal options pending a full review of our country’s acceptance and security processes by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.” But experts say that Rauner and at least 25 other governors who have issued similar orders in the wake of the Paris attacks have little legal ground to stand on. “It’s really a question of fundamental freedoms,” Lavinia Limon, former director of the U.S. Office of Refugee Resettlement under President Bill Clinton and current CEO of the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, told Yahoo News. “If you’re legally residing in the United States,

you have the right to move wherever you wish to. We could resettle a refugee in New York City today, and tomorrow they could decide to move to Dallas.” The largely symbolic move has been criticized by groups ranging from the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops to the Anti-Defamation League, which said it was “deeply disappointed that in the wake of the terrorist attacks in France, a number of governors have announced that their states will refuse relocation of Syrian refugees.” “This country must not give into fear or bias by turning its back on our nation’s fundamental commitment to refugee protection and human rights,” said ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt. “The current refugee crisis in Europe is the worst since World War II... Many of these refugees are fleeing the same terrorists who perpetrated the horrendous attacks on Paris.” Rauner found support from State Senator Dave Syverson, who said that caution was required in Illinois when it comes to admitting new refugees of the Syrian conflict that has raged since 2011. “It is a noble cause to assist those who are fleeing oppressive and violent regimes such as ISIS,” he said. “But in light of the attacks in Paris, we need to make sure that our own citizens are protected first.” President Barack Obama last month said the U.S. would open its borders to a further 10,000 refugees from the war-torn nation in 2016. During

a press conference Monday at the G20 summit in Turkey, he reiterated his support for refugees fleeing to America. “The people who are fleeing Syria are the most harmed by terrorism,” he said. “It is very important that we do not close our hearts to those victims of such violence and, somehow start equating the issue of refugees with the issue of terrorism.” A showdown drawn largely on party lines looks set to become a hot-button topic in Congress with some Republican lawmakers planning to hold a $1 trillion spending bill with a Dec. 11 deadline hostage over the battle. Critics say that any such measure would require overhauling 50 years of U.S. law: The Immigration Act of 1965 banished national origin quotas for newcomers to the country, and The Refugee Act of 1980 that allows the president to admit refugees who face “persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion.” “Barring refugees based on nationality raises serious questions regarding national origin discrimination,” said Tom Jawetz, former chief counsel on the Immigration Subcommittee of the House Judiciary Committee. “And it sets a dangerous precedent.” Illinois’ Department of Human services said 169 Syrian refugees have settled in the state since 2010.

Governor, leaders set for Dec. 1 meeting

By Mark Fitton

Illinois News Network

SPRINGFIELD — The meeting between Gov. Rauner and the four legislative leaders has been rescheduled to Dec. 1. Rauner late Friday afternoon released his proposed format, but on Saturday his staff said he would push the meeting back to accommodate House Speaker Michael Madigan, D-Chicago, who won’t be available Wednesday, Nov. 18 because he will be attending a family funeral out of state. In a letter on Friday from the governor to Madigan, Senate President John Cullerton, Senate Republican Leader Christine Radogno and House Republican leader Jim Durkin, the governor outlined the following format: •The meeting begins at 8:30 a.m. in the governor’s Springfield office, with a pool camera streaming video to media outlets. •The governor opens the meeting and explains the format. •The governor and the leaders then take 10 minutes each “to make his or her case to the people of Illinois — uninterrupted and unfiltered.” •The meeting next goes private (no camera) for negotiations. •When the meeting has adjourned, any or all of the participants conduct their news conferences outside the governor’s office.

Rauner said the format strikes a balance of giving the public access yet keeping the negotiating time useful. “It affords each of us the opportunity to address the people of Illinois without interruption or media filter — and it strikes a balance to ensure we maintain decorum and a constructive atmosphere for negotiations,” he wrote in his letter to the leaders. A coalition of good-government groups in October called for the meeting and offered to facilitate it to get the governor and four leaders talking again.

Illinois is now in its fifth month fifth of fiscal year 2016 with no budget as the first-term Republican governor and legislative Democrats — who have supermajority numbers in each chamber of the General Assembly — continue to disagree on the state’s finances and Rauner’s agenda. All of the leaders had indicated they planned to attend a Nov. 18 meeting, although Madigan said he wanted to see an agenda before he’d commit after Rauner wrote to the civic groups saying the governor’s office would organize and host the meeting.

Paris Terror Attacks

WHY PARIS? The answer is complex. But part of it lies in the fact that French society is still uncomfortable with its diversity. By Dr. Ian Coller

Moyan Brenn, Flickr

hy Paris? I am struggling for answers after cold-blooded mass killers struck the French capital for the second time in a year. For a few months I lived next door to the Le Carillon bar in the Rue Bichat. I wandered home along the canal, enjoying the lively chatter at the tables and the spicy fragrances of the Little Cambodia restaurant opposite. The Rue Bichat is now a place of silence, blood and shattered glass. Piles of flowers mark the world’s grief. Why Paris? The answer is complex. One answer is simply opportunism. Although the attackers’ identities are not yet clear, we know that a shadowy network of skilled persuaders has been at work, priming young men to become human killing machines. The answer, then, is that it could easily have been New York, Sydney, Munich, Stockholm. But it was none of these cities. It was Paris, and Paris makes the front page. This is another part of the answer. We know that vicious attacks also took place in Beirut and Baghdad and were barely mentioned anywhere, while Paris dominated the news channels and the banner headlines. That is certainly one reason why recruiters went to so much trouble planning these coordinated attacks. But there is more. Those of us who study France know how uncomfortable French society is with its own diversity. At least five million French citizens have another language, culture or nationality. Yet terms equivalent to “Arab American” are unknown – in France you are either French or

Arab. Affirmative action and quotas are fiercely rejected. In consequence, as one writer has put it, “the social elevator has broken down.” The French are not just ill-at-ease but ill-informed about their own diversity. No-one knows exactly how many Muslims live in France, because it is illegal to count them. The prohibition on collecting such data is, apparently, intended to protect minorities from attack, but it relegates them to the shadows. Estimates range wildly from 5 to 8 million: perhaps seven to ten per cent of the population. This is more than any other European nation.

France’s colonial legacy

or 130 years, France carved out an empire in the Muslim world. France’s India, Canada, Australia were Morocco, Syria, Lebanon. Yet Islam was never recognized as a French religion in the way that Catholicism, Protestantism and Judaism were. In 1830, France brutally invaded Algeria and incorporated its territory - but not its people into mainland France. To become citizens, Muslims had to renounce their “Muslim status”: only a handful would ever agree. After 1881, a new code excluded Muslims entirely from the protections of French law. France today prides itself on its “laicité” (secularism) which some seek to add to its national values of liberty, equality and fraternity. Church and state were separated in France by the law of 1905. But many French people think this means all signs of religion must be removed from the public space.

Students in public schools, or government employees can be excluded for wearing “ostentatious” signs of their religion such as an Islamic headscarf, a Sikh turban, or a Jewish kippah. Women wearing an Islamic face covering on the street can be arrested. This is fuel to the fire of radicalization. Religious struggles have riven French history, from the wars between Protestant and Catholic in the 16th century to the schisms of the French Revolution. The legacy was so bitter that some Republicans began to hate priests with an almost superstitious passion. Voltaire is still a hero to many for his crushing attacks on religion: the magazine Charlie Hebdo was a great heir of this tradition. This antipathy is deeply etched into French Republicanism, and it can translate into a kneejerk hatred of all religion. Republicans would not support votes for women until 1944, in case it allowed priests more influence. This helps to explain the French hysteria around the hijab, the Islamic headscarf. Recently, I was told by a French acquaintance that Muslims in France are not a problem because most of them are not Muslim anyway. It is not surprising, then, that many French Muslims do not feel French.

Islam kept at bay

hen religion was driven out of metropolitan France, it found its niche in the colonies. Millions of Africans and Indochinese converted to Catholicism, and churches flourished - sometimes in confiscated mosques. But Islam was also encouraged in the colonies as a way of controlling the population. When Muslims began to move to the mainland to work – around 10,000 Algerians migrated before 1914, rising to 800,000 in the mid 1980s – religion was a useful way to control them and preserve the barrier that kept them from becoming full citizens. French Muslim men could not vote until 1944, and Muslim women until 1958. After the bitter eight-year Algerian war came to an end in 1962 with Algeria’s independence, many North African Muslims stayed in France. Special agreements between governments allowed migration to continue, and even to accelerate as the French economy boomed, and Algeria’s stagnated. With the loss of most of its empire by the end of the 1960s, France appeared to be decolonized. See WHY? on Page 6

s with so many disasters and tragedies that strike in the 21st century, social media – an area of open expression online, free of the mediation of journalists – were at the heart of the wave of attacks in Paris. As events unfolded, witnesses reflexively got out their cellphones and shot live coverage of what was happening before their eyes. These amateur images were then relayed by media both online and on TV. Thus the first images of the Bataclan attack, filmed from an apartment a few hundred meters away, were quickly posted on YouTube and relayed by other networks. Depending how you count, they had more than 2.1 million views in less than 20 hours. The same process took place on January 7, when an amateur in a nearby apartment building filmed the Kouachi brothers shouting victoriously after their attack on Charlie Hebdo. Friday night a man named Steven Costa had the same instinct after arriving at the scene of a café massacre, and even interviewed witnesses. Another citizen did the same at the scene of the bombings at the Stade de France. As was the case in January, the habits of everyday people continue to influence professional journalists: the apartment of a Le Monde editor, Daniel Psenny, overlooks the emergency exit of the Bataclan, and it was he who shot the video seen more than 12 million times in a few hours. The public space that these digital networks create allows citizens to build mutual support networks on a self-organizing model. On Twitter, hashtags and their associated news feeds rise up, allowing users to cooperate and exchange information. During the night of November 13 and 14, two exemplary cases stand out. The hashtag #porteOuverte, proposed by the independent journalist and online activist Sylvain Lapoix, became one of the most prominent on Twitter that evening. It means “open door”, and allowed Parisians to both express their support for those living in neighborhoods affected by the attacks and help those who might be

WHY?

From Page 5

But the same colonial relationships continued and continue today. In Paris, above all, the bulk of the second and third generations of Muslims remain in a kind of colonial shanty-town on the outskirts of the wealthy, vibrant city where I was lucky enough to rent an apartment. This is the Arab Paris of today, a Paris that most tourists never see. It is a place of vibrant markets, hardworking families and closeknit neighbourhoods. It is also a place that breeds unemployment, crime, despair and radicalization. These suburbs burst into three weeks of riotous protest in 2005 after the death of two young Muslims in a police chase. What was striking then was that religion was not involved. But the

prevented from returning to their homes. Similarly, #rechercheParis became the means by which residents tried to find traces of loved ones from whom they hadn’t heard. Facebook too played its part. In October 2014 the social network launched a feature called Safety Check that helps users contact their friends during natural disasters. The company chose to activate it for the Paris attacks – those who’d identified themselves as being in the city were asked if they were safe and encouraged to let their friends know. All users had to do was click and a reassuring message was automatically displayed. The application was well received, but also resulted in criticism because Facebook hadn’t made the same decision after the Beirut bombing the day before. In response, founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg says it will activate the feature for other “human disasters” going forward. One of the keys to social networks’ success lies in the ways the public can engage with them emotionally, to use them to share their feelings – indignation, anger, sadness, illnesses. In truly dramatic circumstances, their emotional power is fully engaged, allowing users to share their grief with victims and show empathy in response to the situation. Graphic design is one of the most popular tools on social networks, allowing the sharing with just a few words – or wordlessly – of one’s feelings, especially after the stunning impact of violence that was as blind as it was repugnant. Visual messages quickly became popular, like so many expressions of empathy deposited on the digital altars that our accounts have become. We change the image on our Facebook profiles, Twitter or Tumblr. We customize our Pinterest or Instagram account to show images that move or touch us the most and that best sum up our mood. A single tear is enough to symbolism all our emotions. During the night we discovered the influence of Joachim Roncin’s famous “Je suis Charlie” logo, quickly reworked as “Je suis Paris”, “Je suis France” and even “Je suis en terrasse” – people showing defiance by posting self-portraits outside cafés.

Graphic artist Jean Jullien’s inventiveness was highlighted when he visually associated the Eiffel Tower with a message of peace to honor the victims and survivors. The hashtag #PrayforParis also became a global message, with more than 7 million tweets is several hours. Exploring even a small range of how so many people expressed their resilience is to find meaning in a world that seems absurd, incomprehensible, uncontrollable. Images and symbols highlighting positive initiatives also circulated, to show there’s still humanity in this absurd and brutal chaos. The images demonstrate the rest of the world standing with us, cultural initiatives, meditative moments, slogans that allow us to show our determination to stand up to the threat. Unfortunately, social networks have also allowed many false rumors to spread. In these cases, sharing is done without control and without restraint. A photo of the rock group Eagles of Death Metal circulating on Twitter and Facebook claimed to show the band in concert in the Bataclan on the evening of drama. In fact, it was taken earlier in their tour, at a venue in Ireland. During the night of November 13 and 14, false reports of new shootings were everywhere: Gunshots and bombs were reportedly heard at Beaubourg, Les Halles, Trocadero and more. In the panic, users relayed these unfounded claims, probably thinking they were saving others from danger. But there was no shooting in Bagnolet, and the shocking image of an alleged victim was taken in Brazil. A prophecy supposedly posted November 5 to an online forum, jeuxvideo.com, turned out to have been completely fabricated in an attempt to make it appear that the attacks were foretold. These are just a few examples of the magnitude that human stupidity can take on social networks, between ill-informed but well-intentioned panic to outright malevolence with false messages and reused images, to say nothing of conspiracy theories (and often xenophobic ones) that are already showing up (but which we refuse to publicize by describing them here).

government has failed to learn the lessons of anger, inequality and exclusion. It would be foolish to suggest that such considerations are the reasons Daesh (a loose acronym for ISIS in Arabic that also has negative connotations because of its similarity to “dahes” or “one who sows discord”) trumpets its bloody threats against Paris. It is precisely because the so-called Islamic State is not a state that it must attempt to show its power through attacks of this nature. The choice of Paris is as much about a perverted kind of cultural resentment as it is about history. But history does help to explain the disturbing number – an estimated 1,200 – of eager recruits in France. The dark areas of France’s past have bred an army in the shadows. To “declare war”, as the

French President has insisted he will do, is only to give this alienation a new impetus, and to lend a lunatic fringe-group the aura of statehood it so desperately seeks. The only answer is to meet shadow with light, and evil with good. There is no quick fix for this violence. Instead, the patient work of fighting racism, exclusion and intolerance must continue. France must keep struggling to be the France we believe in, the France we love: the France of human rights, justice and respect, and not the shrunken parody of nationalism pedalled by its extreme right. In this respect, Je suis and always will be Paris. Dr. Ian Coller’s book, Arab France: Islam and the Making of Modern Europe 1798-1831, was the recipient of the W.K. Hancock Award of the Australian Historical Association.

ast week was a busy one for us. On Thursday we attended the Northern Illinois Renewable Energy Summit & Expo at Rock Valley College. It was good to return and remember that we initiated it two years ago when it was held at the Klehm Arboretum. It was also good to meet old friends and colleagues again. We were given one of the ”Leadership by Example” awards. On Saturday we attended the McHenry County environmental program, as we have since the 1990s when it was held in spring as Earth Day; now it is in November as the Green Living Expo. After some confusion (we registered, but were left off the list and map, and had no table) we were escorted to a table which had been assigned to another group that cancelled. We were placed across from an organic farm with a CSA. Next to them were Loyola University students displaying urban agriculture, banning hunger and organic mushroom growing. One of the coordinators of the sustainable mushroom project was excited by the potential of growing mushrooms on a 300 foot by 75 foot wide gulley we have been filling with wood chips and enriching with alpaca wastes. We exchanged emails and look forward to his making a presentation on urban agriculture and mushroom growing at the 2016 Renewable Energy and Sustainability Fair. Almost immediately, several people stopped to chat and pick up the IREA Fair information page. Almost everyone who passed stopped to inspect our display. Maybe now that events have expanded to include sustainable lifestyles, interest has returned. We thanked them for their interest. A visitor to our Fairs encouraged us to keep it up.

Bob immediately went off to visit displays while Sonia stayed at the table and enlisted the people at the next exhibit to come to our Fair. They sell vertical gardens, a good idea for those with little space or who wish to continue their gardening into winter. They are eager to exhibit at the IREA Fair. The new Rock Valley College ecology instructor whom we met at the Northern Illinois Expo stopped and confirmed that he would be at our Fair as a speaker. To our right was a table loaded with items made from recycled materials, including old sweaters become mittens or toys, a pot scrubber decorative sheep and fanciful bird with crest made of nails. The vendor didn’t expect to sell much that day, and suggested that the event have a special section of items for sale so that people would come with the expectation of buying. We told him that we do just that. He might be an exhibitor at our Fair. Long time friends and colleagues Steve and Carol Wenzel whom we met at our home during a Solar Tour, owners of the Blazing Star native plant nursery, told us of an innovative, low labor and low impact German organic gardening, Hugelkultur. Trees and/or branches are placed in a pile, dirt is heaped upon them, and the garden is planted. As the wood decomposes, it forms a natural fertilizer which aids in sequestering carbon. Having excess wood not suitable for heating fires, we might try the technique; if we do, we will report on it. Steve was also eager to try his new lithium-ion battery powered snow blower. It is so lightweight that he can pick it up in one hand. We look forward to such events where we can reconnect and re-invigorate. In that way, they are like the IREA Fair.

Yes, Virginia! There is theatre in Rockford By Bill Beard

Contributor

ew things have been happening in the theatre world of Rockford. We have recently seen the advent of several exciting new performance groups offering some challenging productions. This is very encouraging in today’s fragile economy, as artists of all persuasions constantly struggle for funds, friends and favor. The general audience really has no idea just how very difficult it is for any new arts organization to put together the necessary support to find security and success. The newest group in town calls itself the “Usual Suspects” and is a marvelous menagerie (yes, I meant menagerie….look it up!) of some of our most talented stage favorites, most of whom have enjoyed extensive experience with one of the large long-lived local community theatres, but now have finally decided to spread their wings and look for freer skies and brighter stars. They rather exploded onto the Halloween season last month with a bang, presenting two weekends of The Rocky Horror Show, the cult classic musical which won London’s 1973 Best Musical Award and later served as the basis of the 1975 film, The Rocky Horror Picture Show. An outrageous send up of horror B-movies and early science fiction, the musical’s delightfully whacky, glorified tackiness and its stage filled with zany, weirdo characters, offered the sheer escapism that audiences needed, and which would eventually allow it to become the musical theatre phenomenon which it is; and still drawing die-hard faithful fans wherever it is performed. “Suspects” is developing a solid ensemble of strong local performers, several of whom will be recognized from previous leading roles in other local venues. This production of “The Rocky Horror Show” featured stalwart Christopher Brady in the leading role of Frank’n’Furter, the ‘transvestite transexual from Transylvania‘. Indeed, Brady almost reincarnates the inimitable Tim Curry, who created the film version of the role. Brady was flawless. The innocent young couple who stumble into Frank’n’Furter’s mysterious old castle on a dark and stormy night, are Erin Brady as the sweet young Janet, and the multi-talented Alex McIntyre as Brad, in a wonderfully stylized characterization. The versatile Ray Fanara in the title role of Rocky, all in gold lame and blond bleach and shiney speedo, certainly filled out his character nicely (He also acts very well). The other leads and much of the ensemble included a marvelous selection of excellent well-known and seasoned performers. This was “Suspect’s” introductory offering, a bizarre “cult” show, so steeped in crazy traditions and unorthodox challenges, that it requires the brave at heart (or perhaps the weak of mind) to attempt it. It could have been a disaster! In fact, I had been warned by friends

The Usual Suspects production of The Rocky Horror Show at the Sullivan Theater. Provided

who had already seen it, that the production was just a loud, muddled chaotic mess. But it was not! It was well within the expected “controlled chaos” that a faithful Rocky fanatic fan would expect. The show is famous (or infamous) for welcoming fans in costume (monsters, drag, almost anything) and allowing those crazy fans to do all the ridiculous and now expected traditional audience participation things; like shout out favorite dialogue lines simultaneously with the actors, or loud insults (some risqué, others not) at any time, or throw glitter, streamers, toilet paper, even toast anywhere in the action (sometimes paper and toast not allowed). This production had all of that!; and more. But it really stayed within that acceptable “controlled chaos”; and to a knowledgeable audience, it was all just part of the fun. But even though “Rocky” is a great splashy first show, the “Usual Suspects” should be careful that their next production shows their versatility with a more accepted challenge. Another relatively new group with several notable successes is the Gateway Performing Arts Studio, organized and managed by the mother and son collaboration of Ellen and Andrew Mahan. Both have become active and much in demand, each as directors, Andrew also as dancer, choreographer and performer, Ellen as Executive Director of the Studio, teaching acting and vocal performance. I had only seen one production this past summer, “Godspell, (Under the big top)” a saturation of circus concept. It was an extremely colorful show with

almost an excess of talent, consisting of top performers from local college, high school and community groups. It was widely appreciated by full house audiences; and although criticized as having enough action for a three ring circus, and therefore difficult at times to decide where one’s focus should be, it was obvious that this group was sure to succeed. So when I heard that they would be doing the Pulitzer-Prize-winning dramatic musical, “Next to Normal”, I knew it would be a test of Gateway’s versatility. I had reviewed the national tour production for ‘Broadway in Chicago’ last year and found it absolutely amazing; and I held my breath that Gateway would compare favorably. Well, they did! A superb job on a demanding challenge. As the New York Times stated: this isn’t a “feelgood musical…it is a feel-everything musical.” That about sums it up. It is the story of a family struggling to cope with the death of a son and brother, the mother’s bi-polar condition and the devastating impact of mental illness on the family’s psychological state. Doesn’t sound like a musical, does it? But it is! A powerful story with some exciting new music. This show lays bare the entire range of human emotions. It requires strong first-rate actor-singers; and Gateway found an outstanding cast, capable of handling the depth and diversity of this stunning emotional story. Every one of these actors contributed perfectly to the ensemble unit, particularly Michelle Gottfred in the pivotal role of Diana, the mother. She was superb! Frankly, I felt she was better

than Alice Ripley, who did the original Broadway production, Gottfred’s singing voice was excellent and her overall character right on target. So watch for “Gateway’s” next production. They have become a Rockford “must”. Finally, I would like to add special kudos to Dr. Deborah Mogford, Director of Rockford University’s Theatre. That department has undergone a marvelous metamorphosis since Dr. Mogford arrived a few years ago, growing from a somewhat mediocre program to an exciting, professionally oriented training/producing organization. Her shows keep getting better and better. I recently dropped by to see an evening of short absurdist plays, directed by students in an advanced directing class: “No Exit” by Samuel Becket and “The Lesson” by Eugene Ionesco. Both were excellent. The first, “No Exit”, featured the engaging J. P. Fox, a talented Senior BA student. In Ionesco‘s “The Lesson”, the role of The Professor requires superb characterization skills, intense concentration and a consistent creativity. All of these qualities were abundantly displayed by a Rockford College alumnus, Andrew Harth. I have watched this brilliant young actor perform for several years in a variety of roles. He is the consummate comedy actor. But this role requires much more. Mr. Harth has it all, and gives it all. It will be a shame if this show cannot find another opportunity to be repeated. So yes, Virginia! There is new theatre in Rockford, lots of it. Hopefully, this will encourage more and larger audiences. Check it out. See a show! Cheers!

Tube Talk

It’s a Deaderson’s Christmas By Paula Hendrickson Contributor

ack in June I wrote about The Deadersons, a locally produced YouTube series. True to their word, executive producers Kris Williamson and Wyatt Elliot have posted a new 30-minute episode each month, and the show’s seventh episode — a Christmas show — will be online Sunday, December 6. To celebrate the success of Rockford’s own internet sitcom, there will be a special “Undead for the Holidays” binge-watching party Sunday, November 29 starting at 4 p.m. at Kryptonite. Cast and crew will attend the event, which is open to the public. There will be a Q&A session, local artist Kyle McDonald will create a speed painting to be raffled off, and live music will be provided by Sunspot, the band that wrote and performs the show’s end-credit theme song, “I Was a Teenage Zombie.” “We’re showing all six current episodes to get everyone ready for the big Christmas episode, which will also be our mid-season finale,” says Elliot, whose company, Notebook Entertainment produces The Deadersons. After a brief holiday break, the show will return to its monthly schedule in February. Elliot says the number of views keeps growing; the most recent episode racked up more than 3,000 views in less than two weeks, and the series’ YouTube page already has over 10,000 subscribers. “The views have been steadily rising and the feedback has been very positive,” Elliot says. “Several of our actors have been recognized around town.” The Deadersons now has it’s own podcast aftershow on YouTube, Talking Deadersons, with new episodes airing a day or two after each new episode is posted. The local response has been phenomenal. “Kris and I couldn’t be more humbled and excited by the outpouring of support we’ve received from the local community,” Elliot says.

Captain Jack from 96.5 The Eagle has appeared as “Buddy” in a couple of episodes, and WIFR anchor Whitney Martin guest starred in the fifth episode. “I had a great time playing the role of a reporter in The Deadersons and was honored to be included,” Martin says. “I was impressed with how professional and well executed the episode turned out with such a small staff. We have so many talented people in Rockford and I think this series reflects that.” The hard work of the cast and crew didn’t go unnoticed. An acting novice, Martin was impressed by the editing process. “I’ve learned acting is much different than my daily job and I give so much credit to those who have mastered the craft,” she adds. Early episodes of The Deadersons included cast members in appearing in mock commercials. Now they have actual sponsors. “The last episode had commercials from Culture Shock, Kate’s Pie Shop, The Office Nite Club, and Platinum Innovations,” Elliot says. “We write the commercial, produce the commercial, and the commercial is in the episode you sponsor for the lifetime of the show, for one small fee. We also offer full episode sponsorship for an additional cost.” If you’d like to audition for the show, offer a location for a future episode, or are interested in sponsorship opportunities, you can contact Williamson and Elliot at Deadersons@gmail.com. People at the November 29 event can even start their holiday shopping at the same time. Official Deadersons merchandise will be available for purchase, with all proceeds going to straight into the production budget. Not a bad way to get into the spirit of the season. You can find all episodes of The Deadersons on Notebook Entertainment’s You Tube page: youtube.com/user/NotebookMovies. Find Paula on Twitter: @P_Hendrickson.

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 Tamara Gaumond was a runner up in the Three-Minute Fiction competition with “Shattered”.

“Shattered” by Tamara Gaumond

I admired my newly manicured finger, delicately poised to push the European-style flush-button, a gleaming porcelain disc enhanced with a polished chrome ring. “Even her toilet is cool,” I thought, while admiring the rest of the bathroom; modern, but not cold; elegant, but not pretentious. As I ran my fingers around the rim of the vessel-styled sink, made of Italian glass, the soft blue color of a Caribbean bay, I thought about how much this night meant to me. This was my fifth

date with Graham Baker. We were really hitting it off. Graham was everything I was looking for in a relationship. He was successful, fit, excruciatingly handsome. He loved travel and culture. He was extremely intelligent, but also fun and kind. I tapped a bauble dangling from a mini-chandelier hanging over the vanity. Another benefit of getting close to Graham was being included in his social circle. Here we were at a cocktail party hosted by Katherine Lewis. Katherine was THE socialite and revered by everyone, especially by the “About Town” section of the newspaper. Katherine was stunning. She was always elegant and had an electrifying smile. She was philanthropic and on the board of absolutely everything. I looked at my reflection in the mirror as I lathered my hands in Eucalyptus-scented soap. Graham assured me that Katherine, one of his closest friends, was extremely warm even though she could seem intimidating. He said he was excited for her to meet me, that she would be especially

interested in my career, and that once Katherine included you in her circle, you were a trusted friend forever. The vanity mirror was three separate sections of glass each adorned by a frame of mosaic glass tiles. As I adjusted my hair, I noticed something odd. The section of mirror I was using had a tiny gap the length of the frame. “Could this be a medicine cabinet?” I thought. “People don’t put medicine cabinets in bathrooms like this.” I touched the mirror gently . . . then scolded myself for being curious about its contents. After all, there was nothing more pedestrian than the contents of a medicine cabinet. I remembered debating with friends, such a scenario in an episode of a popular sitcom. My friends were shocked that anyone would snoop in someone’s medicine cabinet. I vowed that day never to peek again. But this wasn’t just any medicine cabinet; this belonged to Katherine Lewis. My curiosity about

the contents was intoxicating. “You can’t!” I scolded myself. . . But I knew I could. I peeked out of the bathroom into the hallway and could hear the ongoing gaiety of the party. I closed the door quietly, went back to the vanity and turned on the faucet for background noise. Then, I touched the mirror. With no knobs or exposed hinges, I assumed the door had a magnetic clasp requiring a little push, . . . which I did . . . gently . . . .on the corner . . . and the door popped open. Then suddenly, with a deafening crash, the mirror fell from the wall. “Oh!” I gasped. “Oh no-no-no!” I tried to stop the plummeting mirror, but it was too heavy. A sharp corner dropped into the glass sink creating a crack that sprawled in every direction like lightning. Tile pieces from the mosaic frame rained to the ground. The big mirror, with cabinet attached, cartwheeled out of the sink and onto the marble floor with the sickening thud of a car accident. I stood in horror and watched as it all shattered.

Rockford Rocked Interviews

Sitting down with local author Theron Moore

By Todd Houston Exclusive to TRRT

Rockford Rocked Interview: You just finished publishing another book, this one called All My Friends Are Rock Stars. Tell us a little about the book and what inspired you to write it. Theron Moore: It started out as a documentary film idea I wanted to do in the fall of 2011. Financially it wasn’t feasible so I decided to turn it into a book. I wrote slowly for the first few years, then just threw myself into the book last January deciding to get it done this year. Turned out great, 346 pages. RRI: This book is not only about the Rockford area music scene like the book (Todd Houston) published last year (called Rockford Area Music History Part I). Your book also includes Milwaukee, Madison and Chicago. Thoughts? TM: Actually, Just Rockford, Madison and Milwaukee. I’ve decided to cover Chicago later, possibly Vol. 2. Rockford, Madison and Milwaukee were my stomping grounds regarding bands I knew and shows I’d go to see. Milwaukee was more accessible to me than Chicago. RRI: Did it ever prove difficult tracking down some of the people interviewed and getting them to open up about the crazy days of rock ‘n roll

decadence or were most willing to speak freely? TM: Everyone in the book was 100 percent open to this project and very forthcoming with their answers. Some more so than others, but nothing held back. I tracked everyone down via social media and the web. There were other bands and people involved in the scene I contacted but it didn’t happen due to logistical reasons and

so that’d be 1977. My uncle used to cruise me around Freeport cranking Uriah Heep and Sabbath as a kid. Later he got me into punk and introduced me to the Madison scene. I discovered metal on my own in high school. The heavier, the faster, the better. By ’84 I was into Metallica, Slayer and Anthrax, still largely unknown bands then. Even did record reviews of such, including

‘I gravitated towards music at an early age. Got turned onto AC/DC in the fifth grade, so that’d be 1977. My uncle used to cruise me around Freeport cranking Uriah Heep and Sabbath as a kid. ‘

busy schedules. No sweat, I’m still a fan. I’m contemplating a Vol. 2 so we’ll see if I can get them in that book. RRI: What first drew you into music growing up and maybe more importantly what made you want to write about it? TM: I gravitated towards music at an early age. Got turned onto AC/DC in the fifth grade,

Black Flag, in my school newspaper. My father was a writer so I took the cue from him. Been freelancing since ’89. RRI: I was told that you grew up in Belvidere during the 1980s. From what I remember there wasn’t a whole lot going on there as far as live music venues. How far would you travel to see a band on a Friday or Saturday night?

Shadley Apartments

TM: Madison or Milwaukee, easy, depending on the show. Rockford had a lot of good stuff going on, though. Cherry Lounge was a favorite place of mine. RRI: I’m going to say a word or phrase and you answer with the first thing that pops into your head. Ready? RRI: Headbanger’s Ball (MTV Show). TM: Friends, beer, Saturday night. RRI: The Thirsty Whale (Chicago music venue). TM: Fascinated by this venue but never there. RRI: Headliners (Madison music venue). TM: Iconic place to see a show. RRI: Sarkoma (Former Rockford metal band) TM: Brian Carter, good friend, great band. Should’ve had more success. Criminally underrated. RRI: Who would win in an arm wrestling contest, Glen Danzig or Henry Rollins? TM: Hank! Danzig’s doing fat Elvis right now. RRI: Finally, where can we purchase your new book called “All my friends are Rock Stars”. TM: Amazon. Here’s the link! amazon.com/All-Fr iends-Are-Ro ck-St ars/ dp/0692554343/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1446438381&sr=1-2

Commentary

What in the weld are you talking about?

ear Marco Rubio, The philosophy department at Rock Valley College would like to know what in the weld world you meant by the following: “Welders make more money than philosophers. We need more welders and less philosophers.” If this were a one-off comment, one suspects we would not feel the need to give it much thought. But it isn’t, see here, and it came out in a very public arena, so this can be viewed as an opportunity for philosophers to explain just what it is we do. It is odd that this needs to be done, as even the briefest look into the history of civilization reveals the foundational role of philosophical thinking for EVERY discipline that we deem valuable today. But, we will give him the benefit of the doubt and try to determine exactly what it is he means. Happily, it turns out that this is one of the many focuses of philosophical thinking: critical analysis of language. Maybe his point is that we no longer need philosophy today? The ancient Greeks (I guess those are the only philosophers he thinks merit a mention, and he has mentioned them unfavorably more than once) no longer have anything relevant for us today. Studying them certainly is not going to get you a job! After all, he might be saying, look at the paltry sum the profession promises to would-be professional philosophers. Well, actually, those who make it into academic philosophy do quite well in comparison to many other professions, including welders. Rubio’s comment above is ambiguous. It is a grouping fallacy where the truth-value of the claim depends upon whether he means welders as an entire group (there are more of them than philosophers) or individually. But even those who receive a BA in philosophy fare better than many of their peers in other disciplines. We don’t think Rubio is implying that one should seek a program of study solely because it is potentially lucrative--again, the data reveals that would be taking philosophy, at least for undergrad. Should that be one’s goal in life?

What reasons could we marshal to support such a position? Of course once we have sought such reasons, we have delved into philosophy. Is this impractical? We want to remain in the realm of the real-world and the pragmatic, as during such a time of economic and geopolitical uncertainty, surely pragmatism is the way to go. But there are Pragmatist philosophers, Pierce, James, Dewey and others who developed a philosophical grounding to the sorts of concerns Rubio has vocalized.

reason as to why we need “fewer” (not “less”) philosophers. How might that go? We guess he would give her supporting claims, maybe premises that lead to his conclusion that we don’t need no stinking philosophy. We bet he could do that, and even succeed in the endeavor, as he has clearly demonstrated an ability to construct arguments. However, even if he succeeds in this, he will have failed. Logic, the science of argumentation, began with philosophy, and continues to be

Let’s imagine Rubio was actually questioned about his comment; let’s say by one of his political opponents on that very debate stage, and a philosophy grad, Carly Fiorina. This imaginary exchange, that didn’t happen but it should have, is called a thought experiment. It allows us to think about things in possible worlds in a way that we cannot in the real one, for various reasons. So, imagine Fiorina presses him for a

developed and honed in philosophy, and is elemental to all of the branches of philosophy still today. So, if he advances a cogent and convincing argument against philosophy, he must engage in the most fundamental tool of philosophers that was in fact invented by them—logic. To paraphrase Pascal, to ridicule philosophy is to be a philosopher. So, what could Rubio mean? Maybe Rubio means philosophers don’t

First Amendment Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

make anything. They don’t build anything that is lasting or utilitarian. But that can’t be it. There are too many other professions that are surely valuable but do not themselves actually construct anything. What do financiers build? Or politicians for that matter? Scientists sure make stuff that we need. If only philosophers were more like them, like Stephen Hawking, perhaps we would want more of them. But theories of the origins of the universe, for example, are found in philosophy too. Indeed, much of what grounds scientific hypothesizing comes from philosophical theories of knowledge--epistemology. It might even be the most important part, as it seems to be needed for all other branches. It doesn’t hurt to have it in legal disputes either—how do we know what we claim to know? Heavens, what could he mean? God? Yes, even God(s) is covered in philosophy. It is not from any one particular theological viewpoint, but philosophers study the nature of religion and belief itself. This includes ethical reasoning. Does he think these are unimportant today? That would be weird. Perhaps he means that philosophy is no longer needed for his profession: politics. What has Athens to do with Washington? he might muse. What else could it be, as it’s not the money, meaning, logic, truth, morals, existence. That doesn’t leave much else but the very profession Rubio has chosen for himself. The “we” refers to politicians who have no need for more philosophers. Maybe, but this would be inconsistent with the fact that the founding fathers and their philosophical theories of governance expressed in the Declaration of Independence were hugely indebted to people like philosopher John Locke. After all of that, perhaps the only charitable interpretation of Rubio’s comment is the following: “We need more welders AND more philosophers.” That makes sense. We are going to go with that. Thank you Marco Rubio for letting the world know the importance of philosophy (and welding). Sincerely, The Philosophy Department of Rock Valley College

Hollande declaring war will not rid Europe of terror By Aurelien Mondon

TheConversation.com

rancois Hollande has confirmed that the French government will take a hard stance in response to the attacks which took place in Paris on November 13. The Socialist president hinted more than once that his retaliation would even surpass in forcefulness that of Nicolas Sarkozy – his rightwing predecessor as president and opponent for the 2017 elections, despite the latter’s reputation for tough measures. French forces are already bombing Syria. In the aftermath of the attack, the early emotional reaction from the president was justifiable given the terrible circumstances. But in the days that followed, politicians from right to left and much of the mainstream media have abandoned caution and reason. They have sought to outdo each other in offering up the most reactionary, violent and divisive rhetoric. Almost all agree that France is “at war”. Prime minister Manuel Valls has even spoken of the “enemy within” – a phrase with dire connotations in French history. Prominent politicians on the right went even further and called for suspects to be imprisoned without trial – an astonishing suggestion given the dark history of “internment camps” in European politics. The verses of the Marseillaise are being sung at every opportunity and with real intent. The archaic lyrics call the people “to arms” and for the “impure blood” of the Republic’s enemies to “water our furrows”. Such words appear to relate directly to the enemies Valls has vowed to “annihilate”. Of course, the difference between the original context of the national anthem and the way it is being used today lies in the enemy. The citizens in Rouget de Lisle’s song were fighting clearly defined enemies – the European monarchies who had allied to destroy revolutionary France. Today’s “war” is against a much more elusive

threat and fought for considerably less convincing political reasons. This enemy has emerged as both a direct and indirect result of decades of exploiting the Middle East and supporting to different extents various terrorist groups and dictators and their allies that aligned with the economic interests of the western world. By responding in such a violent manner, French politicians have played right into the hands of terrorists. By declaring a state of war, they have legitimated an organization which is struggling to hold onto its territory in the face of the courageous (mostly unnoticed) resistance organized by local fighters. They have provided Islamic State with the opportunity to stand falsely righteous when the inevitable civilian casualties will be found under the rubble left by French bombs. Such a careless stance has also benefited the far-right Front National. The utterly unethical coverage of

the Syrian passport found near one of the attacks, the speculation about the identity of the murderers and the simplistic links made to refugees have allowed Marine Le Pen to pretend that she was right all along, and that closing borders was the only way to remain safe. One could think that this may be for a greater good or that the end would eventually justify the means. However, the strategy of the government and politicians across the spectrum, as well as the debate taking place in most mainstream media about the way to respond to the attacks, is based on a fantasy which will ultimately lock us into a cycle of violence. Just as killing Osama Bin Laden did not neutralize the threat of terrorism, destroying IS will most likely prove impossible, and certainly pointless if the root causes for its popularity are not addressed. The real problem here is not simply foreign. It is not circumscribed to tiny

minorities of fanatics. It is ultimately located within the so-called West’s own political and economic system. The up side is that the solution is thus within our reach. Yet this is not the path our leaders have chosen. Instead, France is going to “war”. A three-month state of emergency has been imposed, giving Hollande significant extra powers, and governments are using the opportunity to push for tighter surveillance laws and policing. Associating refugees with terrorists will add to the plight of the very people who are fleeing IS and Assad’s murderous regime. While it will never be possible to prevent everyone with vile intent from taking advantage of crises to enter Europe, closing the borders on those in need would simply be cruel. Life will also become harder for the Muslim communities in France – and other parts of Europe. This group already suffers discrimination on a daily basis, not to mention violent

‘The real problem here is not simply foreign. It is not circumscribed to tiny minorities of fanatics.’

and indiscriminate reprisals in the wake of terrorist attacks. Yet many loosely categorized as Muslim for their creed, appearance or background continue to bear this unfair treatment in silence. They know that voicing their concerns would add to their suspicion. Many others will continue to fight for equal rights and treatment despite the odds set against them. A handful will turn and join the ranks of the alienated youth who find meaning in the some horrid narrative. That our societies are not able to offer them any more hope should act as a statement for us to evolve towards more inclusion and equality. The extreme rhetoric will have a damaging impact on everyone else, too. It will force us all to navigate an environment where fear and paranoia become the new norm. Having soldiers and armed police in the streets may make some feel safer, but it may not prevent attacks. On November 13, the terror alert in France was already at its highest, following the events in January. While safety against such awful acts will be at best an illusion, distrust of the other and suspicion of our own environment and community will become inevitable. Soldiers and armed police will be a constant reminder of an impending threat, forcing us to doubt everyone and anyone around us. That will ultimately weaken our democracy and our capacity to work together for a more hopeful and inclusive future. Dealing with the despicable people who have perpetrated the attacks is essential, of course. Condemning these attacks as horrendous is obvious. But what is perhaps more important is understanding that the solution does not lie in a war to the death. Even if IS were defeated, a similar threat would only take its place, causing more pain and loss. Creating a more democratic, inclusive and egalitarian environment will not be easy in the current political climate, but it is the only way to keep us safe and free in the long term.

Your Horoscope By Denise Guzzardo Week of Nov. 18-24, 2015

This Week: The sun will enter Sagittarius November 20 creating a burst of energy that has been long overdue. The full moon in Gemini November 25 will start the Thanksgiving holiday out with a bang one way or another. Unbridled energy will run high, so keep that in mind as you navigate around others. This is not the time to drudge up old worn out family issues. This planetary aspect will support physical activities, fresh air and dietary changes for the better and are obtainable during this lunar cycle. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Enjoy! Aries (March 21 to April 19) — Your frustration is mounting with a family member or coworker regarding their lack of initiative and enthusiasm. The victim role they continue to play has finally hit your last nerve and you’re ready to strike. Your best action is to remove yourself from their orbit and surround yourself with those of like mind and virtues. By week’s end a change of plans rousts your mischievous side and you’re able to see what life can be like without the turmoil, Aries. Taurus (April 20 to May 20)— You might need to clear up an old debt or an old emotional issue this week. Once this is settled you can move on knowing that this is behind you now. Travel plans may be in the works at this time. If you’re able to get away anytime soon this will more than likely improve your romantic sector as well. A concern about the health of a female friend will be resolved this week for the better, Taurus. Gemini (May 21 to June 20) — Once you get past Wednesday you will find things falling into place quicker than you had anticipated. Delays will only help you to be at the right place at the right time. Try not to be too frustrated, the universe is setting you up for a major positive impact now. Friday you’re connecting with a person from your past. This will be a very humorous as well as emotional experience, Gemini. Cancer (June 21 to July 22) — Some positive news regarding your home environment will be arriving this week. This helps you to see that delays have been in place for a reason and now everything is falling into place. A past romantic relationship may be on your mind this week. Their behavior confuses you and you’re not sure what their motive is. Let them do all of the talking, the answer will surely come out during the course of the conversation, Cancer. Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22) — Romance presents itself in a positive light at this time. After a long-drawnout struggle you’re able to see the benefits of this relationship and how much it means to you. Outside influences have been a major source of irritation for you. Continue to set boundaries with those that may mean to harm you or your significant other. No one can conquer an undivided force, Leo. Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) —You are definitely at the top of your game this week. You have plenty of choices to improve the quality of your life and romantic sector. Once you’ve learned to listen and not talk you will have found out a tremendous amount of information. This has now been gathered for your benefit. Now you can move forward with style, Virgo.

Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) — The expansion within the work environment will improve your social sector as well as romantic opportunities. This increase in pay allows you and your significant other to splurge a little and make this holiday an extra special one. Maybe a weekend away would be just what the doctor ordered now. Try somewhere unfamiliar, this will bring you closer together, Libra. Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) — You are going to be in a place where the past will be unexpectedly in your face this week. However; you are so cool, calm and collected that you will never show how startled you are by this encounter. The other party will not be able to hold together though. For some reason this puts you in a very powerful emotional place. A place that you deserve to be; confident, strong and desirable, Scorpio. Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) — If you don’t set some boundaries soon with an unruly friend or family member you’re going to end up paying the price, sooner than you have expected to emotionally. This out-of-control aspect cannot be allowed to affect your loved ones around you. Most of all it cannot affect you and your health. Set time aside to get away. You will return feeling refreshed and renewed, Sagittarius. Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) — You are in a good place to witness your long-term goals come to fruition now. No longer will you chase after foolish or selfish individuals that are not on the same page

as you. You find romance unexpectedly this month. You’re ready to move forward without looking back. You have all of the tools you need to make a successful relationship last now. Try not to second guess your intuition, Capricorn. Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) — Be careful that you are not allowing another to railroad over you and break your spirit. Especially someone who tends to have an addictive behavior problem to begin with, that can become contagious. The “if you can’t beat ‘em join ‘em” could cost you your health and emotional wellness. Your loved ones can see it in your eyes that you’re not yourself, which is causing them concern. Grab the steering wheel of your own vehicle and get on the right side of the road, Aquarius. Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20) — Whatever your heart’s desire is you will find it in your own backyard during this lunar cycle. Personal relationships flourish at this time. You feel blessed with friends and family members around you. A new job opportunity awaits those that are looking to improve the quality of their lives. Travel is on the agenda as well and plans can finally be made that you have longed for. When you return you are ready to set the world on fire, Pisces.

Farming

Crop prices and climate variables affect yield Choosing the

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

As I discussed last week in introducing cover crops, these are crops that are grown to benefit the area of your garden or plot that are typically grown once your cash crop has been removed. When deciding on cover crops to grow you want to take into account their features. Those features listed last week include managing weeds, enhancing soil building, sequestering nitrogen, alleviating soil compaction, adding soil organic matter, and potentially grazing for livestock. At the same time, you want to consider some other criteria when deciding on your cover crop. You want to consider your needs. If you have an area with overall problems like compaction, nitrogen, or weeds, choose a cover crop that can address those. If you haven’t taken a soil test in the last 3-4 years from your backyard garden, you might consider taking one this fall as it can help you realize if you need to sequester nitrogen or need to add soil organic matter. By being

aware of your needs, you can choose the right cover crop. The actual plant growth features is equally important. Some of these cover crops such as sorghum-sudan grass can reach close to 7 feet and this would not be an ideal cover crop to grow in a backyard setting. Hairy Vetch has vine plant characteristic and can get out of control if not managed properly. You want to determine your spacing requirements. Many cover crops can be grown on the small side and yield quite well. However, you do not want to overseed an area as this can mean the loss of good benefits you would get if you sowed it correctly. At the same time, a cover crop may not be able to give you all of the benefits if it is under seeded. Additionally, know how it will be seeded. Some cover crops can easily be hand sown while others will need to be drilled into the soil. From the backyard perspective, you want cover crops that can be hand sown. Lastly, the exit strategy is very important which will be discussed next week. Before the cover crop seeds are even sown, you’ll need to figure out how you will get rid of it.

URBANA – When corn prices increase farmers reap higher yields by making changes. According to a recent University of Illinois study, about one-third of the yield increase derives from more intensive management practices and two-thirds from cropping additional acreage. Agricultural economist Madhu Khanna says the findings dampen the ongoing debate about the food price and land use changes due to corn ethanol. “There has been a lot of controversy about the impact of biofuel production and corn ethanol production on corn prices because it affects the estimates of the indirect land-use change caused by corn ethanol,” Khanna said. “This in turn affects the carbon-intensity calculations for corn ethanol used to estimate how corn ethanol can comply with the Low-Carbon Fuel Standard in California which seeks to reduce the greenhouse gas intensity of transportation fuel in California by 10 percent by 2020. From this research, knowing that corn yields are responsive to corn prices lowers the magnitude of land-use change related to carbon-intensity of corn ethanol.” The study drew from 30 years of data (1977 to 2007) from the National Agricultural Statistical Service (NASS) of the USDA on county-level corn and soybean yield and acreage in the rain-fed region of the United States—east of the Great Plains. The study also looked at climate variables, both for the 30-year period and in predictions for what temperature and precipitation will be in the years 2040 to 2050 and in the longer range to 2080. “Using predictions from a variety of climate models, we simulated what the changes would imply for corn and soybean yields,” Khanna said. “There is a lot of variability. We can expect anywhere from 7 to 12 percent reduction in corn yields under slow-warming scenarios to as much as 40 percent reduction on average under the more rapid-warming scenarios. “We also find that, by including the potential for prices to impact corn yields, it actually reduces the adverse impact on corn yields that can be attributed to climate variables,” Khanna said. Previous studies show climate change leading to a much larger reduction in yields in the long run. “When you take into account that there is adaptation and farmers can change their practices in response to prices, we find those estimates to be about 10 percent higher than what they would be without farmers’ responsiveness.” Khanna says it’s important not to attribute all of the change that might occur in response to climate change to climate variables alone, but to recognize the potential for adaptation while trying to understand what the future might look like under climate change.

“We know from this study that higher crop prices will lead farmers to invest more and improve production on their existing land,” Khanna said. “And although we cannot disaggregate and specify what the changes were that led to increases in yield, we do find a statistically significant relationship between higher corn prices and higher yield per acre. And we don’t find the same results in the case of soybeans. Based on some of our other research, we know that when a farmer expands corn production, the expansion is onto soybean land and soybean moves onto more marginal land. That’s why we see more of that price increase.” In examining growing degree days, the study found, as expected, that having a longer growing season and warmer weather is beneficial to a crop, but as it creeps closer to threshold levels, more warming can actually have a negative effect. Khanna said it has a U-shaped effect on crop yields. “We also find clear evidence that having a large number of days above the threshold has a significant adverse impact on crop yields,” Khanna said. “Compared to temperature, precipitation changes have a smaller impact – but also a U-shaped effect where, up to a point, precipitation is good, but too much rain can have a negative impact on crop yields. In general, the study found that south and southeast regions will have a much more negative impact from climate change than the upper Midwest. “Our findings provide evidence of the potential for adaptation because farmers can be expected to respond to higher crop prices that may accompany climate change,” Khanna said. “Consequently, the net impact of climate change may not be as negative because farmers are going to be able to use better practices in order to compensate to some extent.” Khanna stressed that any assessment of the landuse effect of corn ethanol should consider what this study learned about the responsiveness of corn yield to prices. It is particularly important because the estimate of the indirect land-use change caused by higher corn prices due to corn ethanol uses global equilibrium models and the responsiveness of corn yields to corn prices is an important parameter in those models. The results of this study can help guide the discussion about models which estimate the carbon footprint of corn ethanol. “Responsiveness of crop yield and acreage to prices and climate” was written by Ruiqing Miao, Madhu Khanna, and Haixiao Huang and published in the American Journal of Agricultural Economics. Funding was provided by the Energy Biosciences Institute, University of California, Berkeley. Khanna is the ACES Distinguished Professor for Environmental Economics in the Department of Agricultural and Consumer Economics in the College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences at the University of Illinois.

State

Agency sues AG’s office

By Mark Fitton

Illinois News Network

SPRINGFIELD — One of Gov. Bruce Rauner’s department heads is suing Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan and asking the court to remove the attorney general’s office from certain workers compensation cases. The lawsuit was filed Nov. 13 in Sangamon County by Tom Tyrrell, director of the Illinois Department of Central Management Services, an executive branch agency answerable to the governor. The attorney general’s office has yet to file its response with the court, but that response is coming, a spokeswoman said. “We strongly disagree with CMS’ allegations and will be responding in court,” said Annie Thompson, deputy press secretary. Tyrrell’s lawsuit argues that Illinois statute and case law establish that personal assistants paid through the Illinois Department of Human Services are not employees of the state but are instead employees of the people who hire them to work in their homes. The suit focuses on two workers compensation claims filed by one such care assistant, Stephanie Yencer-Price. Tyrrell’s attorneys contend that despite CMS’ requests, the attorney general’s office refuses to raise the defense that personal assistants are not state employees and therefore not entitled to workers compensation benefits from the state. The lawsuit also says the attorney general’s office has objected to the appointment of special assistant attorneys general chosen by CMS. Central Management Services says the attorney general’s office had as recently as July 2014 instruct-

ed its attorneys to seek dismissal in each personal care assistant case on the grounds personal assistant were not state employees. And, Tyrrell said, a Sangamon County court in another case held there was no employer-employee relationship between the state and Yencer-Price. Tyrrell says he was compelled to file the lawsuit because there are more than 30,000 personal assistants working throughout the state and that workers comp claims by those assistants have been filed in the hundreds and resulted in payouts of millions of dollars. Tyrrell asks the court to: •Prohibit the attorney general’s office from representing the administration before the Workers Compensation Commission on such cases. •Appoint special assistant attorneys general for the department in such cases. •Or allow the commission to appoint special assistant attorneys general in these cases. The lawsuit marks at least the third time lawyers for the administration and the attorney general have publicly clashed since Rauner took office in January. Earlier, the governor’s and attorney general’s offices disagreed over the state’s legal authority to pay employees while the state is without a budget. Those employees are being paid, although litigation continues. The governor’s office and Madigan’s solicitor general also clashed recently on whether gubernatorial staff attorneys could file friend-of-the-court briefs on behalf of the governor in a U.S. Supreme Court case. That disagreement resulted in dueling letters to the Supreme Court, but no legal action.

Happy holiday?

Kmart employees say Thanksgiving hours are throwing their holidays into chaos By Bryce Colvert ThinkProgress.org

Nick’s parents have already bought him a $600 flight home for Thanksgiving. The tickets would allow him to not just be with them and the aunts and uncles he gets to see regularly, but to spend time with his great-grandmother, an increasingly precious experience. “My great-grandmother is probably going to pass away in a year or so, so every chance I get to see her is a very welcome opportunity,” he said. But as of Monday, he still didn’t know whether he will be able to get on the plane next week. He’s been working at Kmart since end of June as a supervisor, and while the company has said that it will be open starting at 6 a.m. Thanksgiving morning until 10 p.m. on Black Friday, he said no one has given him his schedule yet, even though they are usually posted on Thursdays. The store’s management has communicated very little. But it seems likely that his holiday plans won’t go as he’s hoping. Through word of mouth among his coworkers, he’s gotten the impression that it’s not a question of if he’ll work on the holiday, but when. And if he is scheduled to work, he probably won’t get a morning shift that might allow him to take off for home later in the day; he thinks he’ll probably start work at 6 a.m. that day and have to stick around until late in the night. “I’ve missed a couple of Thanksgivings, but they were all usually due to distance,” he said. “If I can’t use those tickets to go down there, my family’s just wasted 600 bucks. I don’t think Kmart’s going to give me an extra 600 dollars to give back to my family.” Nick’s uncertain situation is not necessarily widespread. While a survey of self-indentified Kmart employees conducted by Coworker.org last week found that 95 percent still didn’t know their holiday schedule, the newer responses from

this week almost all say they’ve received their schedules. A spokesperson for Kmart said that its policy is to have store managers post holiday schedules two weeks in advance, adding, “At this time, we have not been made aware of any complaints received from our associates regarding their work schedules. We are also not aware of any store manager that has not provided associates with holiday schedules.” But Nick isn’t alone. Elizabeth (who asked not to use her real name), who has worked at Kmart for more than two years, also didn’t know her holiday schedule as of Monday. She had been told by human resources that schedules would be posted by Monday morning, but they weren’t there when she went in for work. All she’s been told is the store’s Thanksgiving hours. Meanwhile,

she’s trying to balance planning for two different meals with two different sides of the family. “I’m on standby,” she said. “I’ve told my family, ‘Hey I know y’all are coming, but I still don’t know my schedule yet…’ They’re not certain if I’m going to be able to be there, how much food are we going to fix.” The complications won’t necessarily end once Nick, Elizabeth, and all other Kmart employees find out their schedules, however. Both Nick and Elizabeth have gathered that they aren’t allowed to request time off or specific shifts. And in the Coworker survey, the vast majority have said that they haven’t been given any chance to volunteer for shifts. One respondent said, “We were given no option of what [shifts] we are working. There are several employees who are working outside of

their availability and they were not told about it prior to the schedule.” Meanwhile, none said that their managers had indicated willingness to accommodate their scheduling requests, and many said they had to accept whatever they were assigned to. The company spokesperson said, “Our store managers do their very best to accommodate requests from full-time and part-time associates who seek — additional hours during the holiday, specific shifts (we have several different shifts for morning or afternoon) or time off.” Kmart isn’t the only store that will open on Thanksgiving Day this year, either. Macy’s, Target, and Walmart have all said they will be open, and last year Target employees reported dealing with many of the challenges Kmart employees are facing this year. Elizabeth has been told that if she or anyone else is scheduled for work on Thanksgiving but calls out, they could face getting fired, depending on the discretion of management. “Considering I need my job, I will have to try and work the dinners around” whatever her schedule ends up being, she said. Other employees have been told that calling out will be treated as an infraction, which, when incurred enough times, can lead to termination, and that they will also lose their holiday pay. Last year Elizabeth worked both Thanksgiving and Black Friday, getting to work at 5 a.m. on Thursday and getting off around 3. “By the time I got home, I had enough time to scarf my food in my face, chill with the families, and pretty much went to bed,” she said. “I had to have enough sleep to get up the next day to work another 12hour shift.” That meant she was only able to see a handful of the family members who were in from out of town in the half hour she spent with them. “I feel like I have to pick and choose who I talk to,” she said. This year would end up being no different, except that it’s her infant daughter’s first Thanksgiving and everyone will want to see her. Work hours will disrupt everything. “It’s going to end up forcing me to pick one side of the family,” she said. “I don’t really want to do that. I’d rather be with both sides of the family.” “We’ve worked [on Thanksgiving] every frickin year,” she said of her and her coworkers. “Something’s got to give. At this point, nothing is giving.”

‘We’ve worked [on Thanksgiving] every frickin year. Something’s got to give. At this point, nothing is giving.’

Circus Trip pivotal stretch in Blackhawks season Keith returns to lineup as ‘Hawks depart for annual Canadian rounds By Adam Hess

Contributor

he Chicago Blackhawks are about to embark on their annual November Circus Trip, a two-week, six-game road trip through most of the Pacific Division. They head to Canada this week to challenge the Edmonton Oilers, Calgary Flames, and Vancouver Canucks, and then they will spend next week in California taking on the San Jose Sharks, Anaheim Ducks, and Los Angeles Kings. Heading into this trip, the Blackhawks currently find themselves on the very outskirt of the Western Conference playoff race, sitting fifth in the Central Division and in the second wild card position. They’re just two points behind both Nashville and Minnesota, but both of those teams have played two less games than Chicago. Not exactly an encouraging position for the ‘Hawks to be in going into a long, grueling road trip. Despite how early we still are in the regular season, the Circus Trip is without a doubt a pivotal stretch in the Blackhawks season, and could potentially end up making or breaking their playoff hopes. Fortunately, though, the forthcoming opponents don’t represent overly daunting tasks for the Blackhawks. The Oilers, Flames, Ducks, and Sharks are the bottom four teams in the seven team Pacific Division, and all of those teams are below the Blackhawks in terms of points. Edmonton and Calgary are two of the three worst teams in the NHL. The Blackhawks have also already defeated four of their Circus Trip opponents this season in Los Angeles, Anaheim, Calgary, and

With Langford going for 83 yards on his receiving touchdown and Miller’s long scoring play, Sunday’s outing marked the first time in Bears team history that they put up multiple 80plus yard touchdowns in a game. The afternoon started on an ominous note as the Rams took the opening kick straight down the field, covering 80 yards in less than three minutes. Rookie standout Todd Gurley did the bulk of the damage, picking up 51 total yards on

Edmonton. All of those wins came at the United Center, but they still grant the Blackhawks a level of confidence as they head into their opponents barns. They have yet to take on Vancouver or San Jose this year. However, things don’t always go as planned on the Circus Trip. The Blackhawks have often been surprised by the Oilers for example, even giving up eight goals in a game at Rexall Place a few years ago. And with four of the games coming on back-to-backs, fatigue could plague the team. Still, the Blackhawks are in a good place as they head into this Circus Trip. They have won three of their last four games, including two straight. They just got Duncan Keith back from injury. They’re starting to click offensively and defensively. So there are plenty of reasons for the Blackhawks and their fans to have confidence as this trip gets underway. “I did my rehab and then spent a lot of time hanging out and playing with my son, Colton,” Keith told chicagoblackhawks.com. “That was fun. It wasn’t so much that I was frustrated, because I was hurt. I had no choice but to get it fixed. I watched the games, and that gives you another perspective. But I’m glad to be back.” The 2014 Norris Trophy winner had surgery on Oct. 20 to repair a torn meniscus. “Like I said the other day, it’s not an amputation,” he said. “I don’t remember exactly when I hurt it. It was in the Cup Final against Tampa, either in Game 3 or 4 here. I think I might have been hit, and then a guy fell on me. I thought it was OK during the summer, but then when I started playing again and skating hard, it acted up.” Obviously, we will not know the impact of the Circus Trip’s outcomes immediately, but if the ‘Hawks drop four of the six games and miss the playoffs by two or three points, we’ll know where those potential points were lost. Let’s just hope they can find a way to win four, instead. Adam Hess is the creator and editor of Feathers in the Hat (feathersinthehat.com), and a staff writer at SB Nation’s SecondCityHockey.com.

the drive and staking the Rams to a quick 7-0 lead on a 6-yard touchdown run. “The first drive we couldn’t stop the run,” defensive end Jarvis Jenkins told chicagobears.com.”I got cut out of my gap a couple times. They got a couple double teams. They ran right off of us. [After the first possession] we were like, ‘If we’re going to win this game, we’ve got to stop the run as an interior. So we started hitting blocks, playing square like we’re supposed to, making them bounce it out and all the outside guys were making plays.”

The Bears would not be daunted by the early deficit. The scoring pass to Miller immediately knotted the game, but a fumbled punt return by Marc Mariani nearly gave the Rams a chance to regain the momentum. St. Louis was only able to get a field goal off the turnover deep in Chicago territory, and the Bears held them to just three points over the remainder of the game. “They give you a variety of looks, a lot of pressure packages,” Fox said. “To get us in and out of plays is very critical. He studies extremely hard to get that done. Our offensive staff has done

a terrific job of managing that and he’s done a great job responding to it.” The win continues a solid non-division run for the Bears, as they have allowed just over 16 points per game through a 4-2 run against non-divisional opponents. They have the opportunity to even their season record at 5-5 as they welcome the Denver Broncos to Soldier Field. The Broncos will be without quarterback Peyton Manning, who left Sunday’s game against Kansas City with a foot injury after breaking Brett Favre’s career passing yards record.

IceHogs push out points streak to 10 games

Rockford IceHogs forward Dennis Rasmussen had his most productive games this weekend scoring two goals (and had one goal called off) against the Iowa Wild. On the season, Rasmussen shows four goals and one assist in 13 games played. Todd Reicher

By Todd Reicher Columnist

The Rockford IceHogs keep racking up the wins with a weekend sweep of the struggling Iowa Wild. The first game of the weekend double-header was a close contest until the ‘Hogs pulled away in the third period. Early in the first period it looked like Dennis Rasmussen put Rockford up 1-0, but after official review, it was determined that net became dislodged

before the puck crossed the line. A few minutes later, Vince Hinostroza connected with P.C. Labrie to score the first goal. The tap-in from Labrie was his fourth of the season. The Wild had two power play opportunities during the first 20 minutes but came up empty-handed. Rockford also held the edge in shots on goal at a 10-9 margin. Ville Pokka tallied his second of the season 40 seconds into the period when he successfully converted on a wrap-

around goal assisted by Jake Dowell, who threw the puck at the back boards. Iowa cut the lead in half on their third power play opportunity with Michael Keranen scoring his third of the season, 3:06 into the second period. With his second point of the night, Bryan Bickell extended the Rockford lead to two goals once again with a power play marker 14:02 into the period. Bickell was fed the puck from Ryan Hartman in transition in the neutral zone, and Bickeel carried it in on the left wing and sniped a rocket over the shoulder of Leland Irving for his second goal of the season. A centering play from behind the net on a sweet no-look backhand pass from Brady Brassart to Kurtis Gabriel, who was right in front of the net, cut the Rockford lead back to one goal with 27 seconds left in the middle period. Early in the third period, Rasmussen made a nice dangle around a Wild defender, but his shot was denied by Irving. The “Moose” picked up his own rebound and beat Irving to once extend Rockford’s lead. Jeremy Morin found a loose puck in the left slot and fired a rocket past a sprawled out Irving to put Rockford comfortably ahead 5-2 with 11 minutes left in the game. Michael Leighton and the Rockford defense locked the Wild out for the

rest of the period, holding Iowa to seven shots in the period as Rockford came away with a point in their ninth straight game. With the win, Leighton earned his 200th AHL victory, placing him 13th overall in the league. The following night the same teams hit the ice for the second game of the weekend series, and for the first time against Rockford this season, the Wild scored first. Keranen tallied his second goal of the weekend 7:19 into the game when his shot was deflected past Leighton for the 1-0 lead. Rasmussen continued his strong play this weekend with the game-tying goal at 13:09. Nolan Valleau was the primary assist with Bickell factoring in as the second helper. Valleau threw a puck at the net which was tipped in by Rasumssen. Iowa reclaimed the lead 1:48 into the second period when Grayson Downing earned his second point of the night. Less than three minutes later, Bickell continued his torrid scoring pace with his third goal in four games since being sent back to Rockford. Bicks was playing back towards the blue line, and then pinched in closer to the left faceoff circle and fired a one-timer into the back of the net. Just 19 seconds later it was Mark McNeill giving Rockford their first lead of the game. McNeill grabbed the

puck in transition on the right side of the ice, then wristed a rocket for his third goal of the season. Iowa knotted things up late in the second when Zack Mitchell beat Leighton for his third of the season 14:18 into the second period. A late third period power play gave Rockford the lead once again. Hinostroza held the puck deep in the Iowa zone and found a streaking Kyle Cumiskey who ripped a shot past Jeremy Smith, who was partially screened by Ryan Hartman. The IceHogs fought off a penalty kill with four minutes left in the game to preserve the win, 4-3. The victory gave Rockford points in 10 straight games, showing a record of 8-0-1-1 during that span, with four of the wins coming against the Wild. Rockford plays three games this week with a road game on Wednesday against the Grand Rapids Griffins. Rockford will then head up to Milwaukee on Friday against the Admirals. Milwaukee was one of two teams to hand Rockford a loss in their 10-game streak, an overtime loss on Saturday, November 7. Rockford’s next home game takes place on Sunday when they host the Lake Erie Monsters. This will also be the night where the Stanley Cup comes to town, as fans will have an opportunity to get their picture taken with the celebrated trophy.

MLB Offseason

Cubs gaze into the playoff window By Nick Schaefer

Contributor

he offseason is still in its infancy, and other than Dave Dombrowski loudly announcing his arrival in Boston by trading for Craig Kimbrel, most moves so far have been on the margins. We have seen a few players accept qualifying offers, and the Phillies traded for Jeremy Hellickson, but typically there is a bit of a holding pattern until the winter meetings. Those are currently scheduled for December 7-10. I am comfortable speculating about what the Cubs will do, because they have the good fortune – and as they say, luck is the residue of good design – of having a rather clear path in front of them. They won 97 games in 2015 (although their run differential suggests they “should” have only won 90) and made it to the NLCS. Moreover, they are built around a young core that should only be improving. The ’15 Cubs were not the ’08 Astros who were desperately squeezing juice out of a 3 month-old orange. It is clear the Cubs’ playoff window is open right now, and therefore it makes sense to start turning more of their massive revenue streams

and stockpile of assets to fixing problems at the major league level to maximize their chances of a World Series victory. And for a team like this, every win they add is a big deal. A team going from 93 to 95 wins might be the difference between having to play a single elimination Wild Card game versus getting a bye into the NLDS as the NL Central champion. That’s worth more than a team going from, say, 76 to 78 wins. The Cubs also have emphatic solutions at a number of positions. Anthony Rizzo, Kris Bryant, Addison Russell, Miguel Montero, and Jorge Soler, for example, are obvious at 1B, 3B, SS, C, and RF respectively. Between Javier Baez, Starlin Castro, Chris Coghlan, and Kyle Schwarber, they should have serviceable options in LF, 2B, and backup catcher. It seems that the Cubs will need to pursue options in centerfield – to replace the likely departing Dexter Fowler – and to shore up the back of their rotation and the middle of their bullpen. Lester and Arrieta are great. But while Hendricks and Hammel held their own in the rotation, 2015 likely represents the best Hendricks can do, while Hammel has never thrown more than 180 innings in a season. What’s more, 2015 was a very fortunate

year for the Cubs in terms of injuries. If something were to happen to one of those four guys, there aren’t a lot of obvious internal solutions for the rotation. That dovetails nicely with this free agent market, as there is a surplus of good-to-great arms on the market this year. David Price, Zack Greinke, Johnny Cueto, and Jordan Zimmermann are the big ticket items and the consensus is that the Cubs will target one of these guys. Price makes the most sense to me. He is the youngest of this group, other than Cueto – whom he has generally outperformed, certainly in terms of health. Greinke is obviously superb, but one has

last year and still didn’t win their division. Albert Almora could handle it defensively, but he was only okay with the bat in AA last year and would be a huge downgrade from what Fowler gave them in 2015 – not to mention the damage it might do to his development. The Cubs do have a lot of assets that appear more valuable to them in a trade than they would be if they were retained. Gleyber Torres looks like a wonderful shortstop prospect – but he is blocked pretty much everywhere, unless they deal Castro and/or Baez. Similarly, Billy McKinney may be a very good corner outfielder, but unless Schwarber has LF to play in, it’s hard

‘Luck is the residue of good design’ to imagine that the Dodgers would be willing to spend the most on him out of all of these as he wouldn’t cost them a draft pick, and money is a resource they can acquire more easily than picks. Whether they get an ace in free agency or not, there are still other mid-to-back end options that could be a good fit. Even without adding a David Price, signing a Scott Kazmir or Wei-Yin Chen would push Hendricks to the role of fifth starter, to which he is much better suited. The free agent market for center fielders is poor – think Rajai Davis and the Severely Injured Denard Span. And there do not seem to be any internal solutions, certainly not solutions of sufficient quality for a team that won 97 games

to imagine where they will find enough PAs for a bat of his quality. Similarly, Jorge Soler should be the RF for years to come barring incident. It might be worthwhile to explore acquiring someone like Brett Gardner or Marcell Ozuna to play CF for 2016 if Fowler costs more than the team is willing to pay. The Cubs have really positioned themselves well. They are in a strong enough position to adopt a very hard negotiating stance, and the free agent market is well-suited to their biggest need. Their biggest problem is beyond their control – the fact that the Pirates and Cardinals are really, really good too. Find Nick on Twitter: @Nick_TCS.

Offense shows signs of new life By Nate Johnson

oing four years without a touchdown probably makes an NFL player want to get a crack at the end zone. Bears tight end Zach Miller has gotten that, and then some. After pulling in the game-winning TD last Monday against the Chargers, Miller crossed the goal line twice more on Sunday in St. Louis as

the Bears won on the road for the second straight week, beating the Rams 37-13. “I think we probably clicked as well as we have all season long,” head coach John Fox said Monday, “in a short week, on the road, against an NFC opponent, which we hadn’t done yet. From that standpoint, it’s gratifying after the fact.” Miller’s 87-yard reception on the second offensive play of the game was the longest by a tight end in the league since 2006, and he added

Rookie running back Jeremy Langford matched last week’s coming out party, tallying 182 all-purpose yards and scoring twice. Jay Cutler continued a solid stretch of quarterback play, throwing for three touchdowns and not turning the ball over while posting the highest single-game quarterback rating of his career. And kicker Robbie Gould snapped out of his re-

cent funk, hitting on all three field goal attempts and all four extra points. “I don’t feel like I did that much,” Cutler said. “The offensive line did a great job controlling the ball in the second half. Some guys on the outside made some plays. Against a front like that and a secondary like that, very rarely are you going to get some ‘chunk’ plays like that.”
