DECEMBER THE MONTH OF GIVING At this time of year, people are thinking of charitable giving. Not only does it leave you with a warm feeling of helping others; it can also result in some end-of-year tax deductions. Would you rather pay the government or make sure your money stays here in your community or with causes you care about?

City Beat Downtown strolls through festivities

Another Stroll on State has come and gone, and the reviews from downtown businesses are positive following last Saturday’s events. “Spreading it out the way they did, it helped alleviate some pressure,” one restaurateur told the Times. “There were times last year and the first year By Shane where it felt chaotic, Nicholson even overwhelming at points. We never really had that this year, and we were still just as busy through the night.” “Once again we were delighted to see so many people coming together to celebrate the holiday season in downtown Rockford,” said Josh Albrecht of the Rockford Area Convention and Visitors Bureau. “It is wonderful to have Stroll on State become a Rockford tradition that friends and family look forward to each year.” One setback: the light show got started a little earlier than planned, with many patrons anticipating the need to move toward the State Street bridge closer to 7 p.m. “I think some people who were here for the first two were still adjusting to the new layout,” said a downtown business owner. “But in the end, it was another fantastic showcase for Rockford.” The show was certainly a sight to behold wherever visitors downtown found themselves. A round of applause to RACVB and the army of volunteers who pulled it off. n A lot of readers were upset at our reporting last week that Friends of Ziock (FOZ) was the contact point for Gorman and Co. on the downtown hotel project. It seems that people wanted a juicier story than that to fulfill their needs for a good conspiracy. We must apologize for not being able to provide the fodder you need to stoke the flames around New Towne higher, but facts are facts, and the fact is a small group of citizens dedicated to turning the Amerock building into something this city can be proud of solicited dozens of contractors across the country to come look at the project, including Gorman. They were one of 10 or so contractors who specialize in renovating distressed properties to reply. FOZ themselves engaged those businesses, brought them into the city, entered into discussions around the hotel, and ultimately Gorman was the one who decided to take the project on. We should be thankful that there are independent groups in this town committed to revitalizing these historic landmarks, not searching in vain for another reason to say Rockford can’t put itself back on the map. You can have your own opinion about whether Gorman is right for Amerock or New Towne or any other project around town, but you can’t have your own facts about how they found themselves at the helm of the hotel project to begin with.

Chicago’s top cop ousted following release of video

Emanuel sacks McCarthy after week of protests By Mary Wisniewski Reuters

Chicago’s police chief was ousted on Tuesday after days of protest over a white officer’s shooting of a black teenager 16 times and the department’s refusal to release a video of the killing for more than a year. Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced during a news conference that he had asked Garry McCarthy, police superintendent since May 2011, to resign. The mayor also said he was creating a new police accountability task force. The white officer, Jason Van Dyke, was charged a week ago with first-degree murder in the killing of Laquan McDonald. The video, from a patrol car’s dashboard camera, was released on the same day. High-profile killings of black men at the hands of mainly white law enforcement officials in U.S. cities have fueled demonstrations for some two years, stoking a national debate on race relations and police tactics. Emanuel, a Democrat and former chief of staff to President Barack Obama, said he was responsible for what happened in the case, the same as the police superintendent. He said the creation of the task force was meant to rebuild trust in the police department of one of the country’s largest cities. The mayor said McCarthy had become “a distraction.” In an editorial on Tuesday, the Chicago Sun-Times had called for McCarthy’s resignation. The Chicago City Council black caucus and some protesters had also called for

him to leave. The Conference of National Black Churches applauded his dismissal.

Street violence an issue for mayor

Policing and street violence have emerged as leading issues for Emanuel since his election in April to a second term after being forced into a runoff. The mayor, McCarthy and Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez have faced criticism for taking 13 months to release the video of the 2014 shooting and to charge Van Dyke. By naming a commission and removing McCarthy, Emanuel could be hoping to deflect criticism of his own handling of the case. Soon after Emanuel’s re-election, the city agreed to a $5 million settlement with the 17-year-old’s family. The video shows Van Dyke shooting McDonald in the middle of a street on Oct. 20, 2014, as McDonald was walking away from police who had confronted him. Protests followed the charging of Van Dyke and the release of the video on Nov. 24. Van Dyke, 37, was released from jail on Monday after posting bond on a $1.5 million bail. A civil rights leader, the Reverend Jesse Jackson, voiced disappointment in Emanuel’s handling of the matter and urged an independent investigation led by a special prosecutor. More protests were expected in the city on Tuesday night, according to organizers. See FIRING on Page 6

CPD chief undone by an unlikely hero By Scott Reeder Illinois News Network

watched the video in disbelief. Bullet after bullet tore into the prone body of Laquan McDonald. The shooting of the 17-year-old was captured on video by a squad car’s camera. It was a horrifying display of the ultimate use of government power — the taking of a human life. I’ve been a reporter for nearly 30 years. Early in my career I covered cops and crime. I’ve covered shootings that were justified and some that were not. But what happened after the shooting was all too familiar. Folks started to lie. Bureaucrats covered their butts. And politicians pointed fingers. There is no other way to describe the situation. It was a cover-up. Initially, the Chicago Police Department said McDonald was shot once after lunging at an officer. But the autopsy showed that he was shot 16 times. And the video shows him walking away rather than lunging at anyone. McDonald was no saint. But no one deserves to be shot while lying helpless on a street. A tenacious freelance reporter, Brandon Smith, filed a Freedom of Information Act request for the video.

State Budget Crisis

Talks restart with no hint of compromise License

renewals not in the post

By Mark Fitton

Illinois News Network

SPRINGFIELD — Illinois’ governor and four legislative leaders are at least talking about talking again. And that seemed to be one of the few positive takeaways from their much-publicized Tuesday meeting in Springfield. Gov. Bruce Rauner and the four leaders of the General Assembly met for a little less than an hour in public and about the same time in private. Afterward, they said they’d meet again soon — perhaps next week and perhaps with supporting staff. Additionally, the legislative leaders said they and the governor have at least gotten started on a deal to get some non-general fund money flowing, including motor fuel taxes for local governments’ use. But the dug-in positions that have produced Illinois current budget impasse appeared largely unchanged. For instance, Gov. Bruce Rauner again advocated term limits and legislative redistricting reform, saying gerrymandering and the protection of incumbents remains the norm in Illinois. “Our politicians pick the voters, our voters don’t pick the politicians,” Rauner, R-Winnetka, said in his public remarks before the private meeting. House Speaker Michael Madigan hardly agreed. “Term limits and redistricting are Republican campaign issues for November 2016” and shouldn’t be preconditions for a state budget, the speaker said. The Republican leaders from the House and Senate said what they’d been saying since the spring: No new revenues or tax increases without reforms. Sen. Christine Radogno, R-Lemont, and Rep. Jim Durkin, R-Western Springs also said they continue to stand with Rauner when it comes to the need for a property tax freeze coupled with giving local governments flexibility on collective bargaining, prevailing wage and outsourcing. “I think the governor has made it very clear what he’s looking for,” said Durkin. “Nothing’s changed, and that’s not going to change, either.” Senate President John Cullerton, D-Chicago, said he was encouraged by the meeting and remains

ready to negotiate. But he also took a shot or two at Rauner’s leadership style, saying they governor should have summoned the leaders sooner and more frequently, and he implied Rauner needs to step up when it comes to the budget. “The budget is our (the Legislature’s) problem and he’s just the governor?” That doesn’t make sense,” Cullerton said. While Radogno said she remains ready to negotiate, she didn’t see much change on Tuesday. “When it comes to actual brass tacks, there’s no progress,” she said. Rauner didn’t meet with the press or issue a statement after the meeting. No date was released for the next meeting, the details of which are apparently still being worked out. The House returns to Springfield on Wednesday, and the leading legislators indicated there might be progress on House Bill 4305 by Rep. Martin Moylan, D-Des Plaines. It would make

nearly $2 billion available to local governments and people owed by the state, such as lottery winners who are now taking vouchers for winnings greater than $600. The state has entered the sixth month of fiscal year 2016 without a budget. The Democrats want money for state services beyond the $32.5 billion estimated available. They passed a $36 billion spending plan, saying they’d work with the governor on revenues and cuts. With the exception of money for primary and secondary education, the governor vetoed most of the Legislature’s plan, saying he wouldn’t support additional revenue until he gets some of his agenda items, which he says are reforms and necessary if Illinois’ economy is to improve. Meanwhile, the state is spending at clip that could put it $4 billion to $5 billion into the red as it funds the education budget, satisfies its debt service and pays for items demanded by court orders, consent decrees and in continuing appropriations.

‘I learned a long time ago, when you talk, you don’t learn. And my purpose today was to listen, to learn.’

-Illinois House Speaker Mike Madigan

Hundreds of thousands of Illinois license plates expired at midnight Dec. 1 – but many vehicle owners likely did not receive a notice in the mail. On Oct. 28, Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White’s office suspended mailing annual notices to vehicle owners reminding them of their registration renewal obligations. This action was a response to the lack of a state budget, and the secretary of state estimates that this move will save $450,000 per month and will enable his office to continue mailing vehicle registration renewal stickers, titles and license plates for a few more months before the office’s postage account runs out. Drivers who don’t sign up for email notification will need to renew their registration in person, as they will not have the necessary pin numbers for online renewal. Illinois vehicle owners can sign up online for email reminders of vehicle registration renewal deadlines. “It is unfortunate that due to the governor’s unwillingness to work on a budget that individuals are at greater risk of being fined,” State Rep. Litesa Wallace said in October. “I hope residents spread the word and take advantage of the email option so that they can avoid a possible fine and have peace of mind.” White warned in his press release Sept. 28 that if his office’s postage account is depleted before January 2016, his department will be unable to mail annual licenses to auto dealers, which they must have to operate legally. Nor will the secretary of state’s office be able to send out incorporation paperwork required by Illinois businesses. Illinois has been operating for nearly half a year without a budget, and the state’s unpaid bills now total more than $6.8 billion.

SPRINGFIELD — A St. Clair County judge has ordered the state to pay its health insurance contributions for home health care workers. The request for that order was filed earlier in November by the union that represents the workers, SEIU Healthcare Illinois and Indiana. The union argued the state had failed to make its contributions to the health fund for home care workers represented by the union. In doing so, the union argued, the state breached its contractual obligation. The union said the lack of payments — which the state attributed to a lack of fiscal year 2016 budget — put the workers in danger of losing their health insurance after Dec. 31. The workers are eligible to participate in the health insurance fund by way of

Jim Pasco, executive director of the Fraternal Order of Police, said ultimately the mayor was to blame, not the police. “Blame Rahm Emanuel. He hired McCarthy, he set his parameters, and he fired him,” Pasco said. “The firing of Superintendent Garry McCarthy is not nearly enough to restore the trust that has been broken with the people of Chicago,” said SEIU Healthcare Illinois Vice President Greg Kelley in a statement. “Today’s news is the direct result of communities fighting back and doing whatever it takes to reclaim their city. But it does not change the fundamental reality: True justice requires that Alvarez and Mayor Emanuel resign.” Cornell William Brooks, president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, accused the city of “generational police misconduct and police brutality.”

denied by the city, he went to court, fought for its release and won. And it was not until the video was on the brink of release that the officer involved was charged with murder. It was 13 months after the shooting. Thirteen months. Oh, and the taxpayers of Chicago had already paid a $5 million settlement to McDonald’s family with a provision that video would remain confidential. Just call it hush money. Mayor Rahm Emanuel says he didn’t see the video until it was made public last week.

the state’s contract with SEIU. The union said the state owed the fund $1.5 million for fiscal year 2015 and $11.8 million through October for fiscal year 2016. In his order filed Wednesday, Circuit Judge Robert P. LeChien agreed and ordered the state to make all contributions owed through October 2016. He gave the state 10 days to comply. Further, the judge said, the state must make continuing monthly payments. LeChien criticized Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration and the Legislature for inaction to date. “This lack of ability of the governor and the General Assembly to perform duties makes essential services and assistance headed for a chaotic bust,” the judge wrote. “Payment out of pocket for medical services and medication dooms the financial survival of

employees and their families.” “While the employees have complied with the CBA (collective bargaining agreement) in all respects, the fiddle while burning posture of the other branches of state government provokes the judicial branch to act to preserve the status quo because it is necessary for the state to secure the financial stability of the SEIU Health Fund for 2015 and 2016,” LeChien wrote. SEIU Healthcare Illinois applauded the decision. In a prepared statement, President Keith Kelleher called the ruling “another major rebuke to Gov. Bruce Rauner’s extreme agenda and another example of Rauner’s failure in leading and managing Illinois’ finances, contracts and basic state operations” llinois is entering the sixth month of fiscal year 2016 without a budget.

former government civil rights lawyer, Patrick said he hoped to help restore the community’s confidence in the police and rebuild the system of accountability. The panel, due to make its recommendations by March 31, aims to boost independent oversight of police misconduct, ensure officers with repeated complaints are evaluated and forge a process for releasing videos of police incidents, Emanuel said. Federal authorities have had an open criminal investigation into the shooting since April, and the U.S. Department of Justice might still investigate the police force, as it did in Ferguson, Missouri, and Baltimore following deaths involving officers and unarmed black men. On Tuesday afternoon, Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan called on the DOJ’s civil rights division to investigate Chicago police practices, including use of deadly force and the adequacy of its investigation of misconduct allegations. “The shocking death of Laquan McDonald is the latest tragedy in our city that highlights serious questions about the use of unlawful and excessive force by Chicago police officers and the lack of accountability for such abuse,” Madigan said in a statement.

“Trust in the Chicago Police Department is broken. Chicago cannot move ahead and rebuild trust between the police and the community without an outside, independent investigation into its police department to improve policing practices.” In another incident, a lawyer representing the family of a 25-year-old man killed by Chicago police on Oct. 12, 2014, told reporters that a dashboard camera video of the shooting that would challenge the police version of events could be released by court order as early as Dec. 10. Ronald Johnson III was running from police when Officer George Hernandez arrived and seconds later shot him in the back, lawyer Michael Oppenheimer said. Police said Johnson had a gun and turned toward officers before being shot, but Oppenheimer and Johnson’s mother said a yet-to-be released video did not support that description. In a Chicago courtroom, a 21-year-old college student was released to home detention on Tuesday on $4,500 bond following his arrest for threatening to kill 16 white male students or staff at the University of Chicago to avenge McDonald’s killing.

The city dished out millions of bucks to McDonald’s family and the mayor hadn’t even bothered to see what was on the video? Give me a break. Even in Chicago, $5 million isn’t chump change. But who is this Brandon Smith? He’s the reporter who forced the Chicago Police Department to release the video. He writes part-time for whoever will buy his work and also has worked in restaurant kitchens and drives for Uber to support himself. Smith broke this story without working for any particular news organization. In fact, this small-town Ohio native, who set the Chicago’s political establishment on its ear, hasn’t even earned his bachelor’s degree yet.

But he already is holding those in power accountable and demanding transparency from the opaque corridors of Chicago’s City Hall. And he is learning some tough lessons about those in power not wanting to be held accountable. On the day the video was made public — because of his lawsuit — Chicago police officers turned him away from a mayoral news conference. Why? They don’t consider him “legitimate” media. Well, he may not have a press pass in his pocket, but he has truth marching at his side. And for the public, horrified by the images he brought to light, that is credential enough.

Rasmanns return to the stage By Richard Gubbe Contributor

Charlie and Stephanie Rasmann were content to set aside their professional acting careers and start a family of their own, living a non-show business life in Roscoe for the fourth decade of their lives. Charlie was content in the family manufacturing business, Stephanie comfortable working for Savant Capital Management. They were in retirement mode from paid theater in Chicago, saying goodbye to a career they both loved to move back to a place they grew up. They transitioned back to the real world in their leading roles in Starlight Theatre’s Young Frankenstein last summer at Rock Valley College. They were onstage again, this time in a rare show together. Charlie was Dr. Frankenstein, Stephanie his madcap fiancee. That was it, they said. They were stepping back. Then Director Mike Webb dangled the roles for a play with a Pulitzer Prize and 10 Tony nominations at them, roles they both deeply wanted to play. “Once Mike announced he was going to do Saturday in the Park with George, we went back and forth whether we wanted to audition or we actually wanted to take some time off because this was a dream show,” Charlie said. “We both decided we would have regretted not going for it. It was the appeal of the show.” The Rasmanns (pronounced Raceman) auditioned as if the show started the following week. The intricate show from Stephen Sondheim, who “re-invented the American musical” with complex and challenging themes, according to President Obama. Sondheim was honored recently with the Presidential Medal of Freedom and Sunday in the Park is no picnic to undertake. But leave it to Webb not to back down from any challenge in his quest to direct all Sondheim works. The play opens Wednesday for a two-week run in the quaint Studio Theatre at Rock Valley College, where 170 seats are only slightly less than the also-quaint storefront settings the Rasmanns got paid to perform in. Although both graduated from Rockford University with degrees in performance, neither had performed in Studio shows. Webb has known Charlie “since he was a kid” and Charlie had taken roles in outdoor RVC shows before heading off the big city. “We heard it was it was like storefront Chicago houses where we spent a lot of time in spaces we’ve grown to enjoy. Neither of us had done a studio show,” Stephanie said. She had parts in other Sondheim shows and she was familiar with the show already. Both grew up on Rockford’s east side and met in college while majoring in musical theater. “We were college sweethearts,” Stephanie says,

and the couple moved to Florida for a brief time after graduation, then to Chicago where each drew a livable weekly salary or flat fee for a show for five years, although they supplemented their income, Stephanie in retail and Charlie selling insurance. They were never in the same show with the exception of one cabaret, yet they would never live apart just to take a role in another city. “I never want to leave him for a year to do that. It’s never as important to me as my relationship,” she said. “I had an inkling for New York while in college. I took six trips in three years and the last one it was smelly and busy and I hated it.” Chicago people, they became. “There’s always a craft beer in our system,” Charlie says. Charlie spent the first three years as a stage manager, hooking up with a union crew. “People are always looking for stage managers. That turned into me managing my own shows. The work kept coming,” Charlie said. “And it pays more,” Stephanie added. He missed acting too much and went back to his passion. He did a few musicals like Spamalot and The Full Monty, but his strengths are in acting and he had key roles in straight plays such as All My Sons, Take Me Out, and Hamlet twice in the Belmont theater district. “If the material interested me, I would go out for it,” he said. “We hit our stride in storefront theater,” Stephanie said. “I wasn’t auditioning for things unless I wanted to be in and if I wasn’t interested I didn’t want to waste our time.” Then came discussion about a family. “That’s when we decided to come back here. It

was culture shock moving back here, but we adjusted quickly,” Charlie said. “We wanted to focus on being calm and then Sunday came up we would have been kicking ourselves.” Charlie works full-time at his father’s company, Custom Gear and Machine, while also working on a second bachelors at NIU, this one in engineering. They knew each other five years before marrying in 2012. Each has their strengths; Stephanie’s is in music. Charlie can attest to her range and intensity. “Singing in the car is a little much on my ears but I never get sick of hearing her sing,” he says. “Memorizing music comes more easily to me,” she says. “I have been singing since I could talk but was so shy.” She pushed herself into roles, then was thrust into a lead part in high school and no more stage fright. The key for acting for her is “to know what the intent is and thinking how your character is responding.” Sunday in the Park is no picnic for the two leads. “I’m never nervous for auditions but was actually nervous for this,” Stephanie said. “There is no easy song in George. My legs were actually shaking. Nerves are good; they mean you care.” Charlie has the propensity to memorize large blocks of text and absorb his character. “This show is right up my alley – a lot of words. Take Me Out had three-page blocks. The characters are so real, getting into their minds and their motivations is difficult.” Webb draws talent to RVC winter and summer shows for what Charlie describes as a “Labor of love for Mike. He does so much for the cast and community with the meals he pays for. It adds up

to what a stipend might be.” Webb nurtures many of his performers from an early age. “I’ve known Charlie since he was a baby,” Webb says. “It’s wonderful that they’re back home and it’s good for the community. Their breadth of work is pretty impressive. They should be really proud.” Sunday in the Park with George, from Sondheim and James Lapine, is a mix of music and straight theatre and uses a scrim screen to set the mood of the 1860s France in the impressionist era. “To make it work in this space is epic,” Webb says. The script is inspired by the Georges Seurat’s iconic pointillist painting A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. Webb took the cast and crew to see his famed, enormous work at the Chicago Art Institute. The story turns a century later as a descendant of Seurat’s, also George, is searching for an artistic path of his own. The original play starred Mandy Patinkin and Bernadette Peters. “I cared deeply for George before I knew this was an option and wanted to experience that,” Charlie says. “You need to be able to tell that story to somebody, he says. “Tell the story and make the words stick. If I’m not in it wholeheartedly, that is taking away from someone else’s experience. If it’s a role I deeply care about, I will go for it. We don’t have the need to audition for anything just to be on stage.” Their next goal, so they say is no more until they increase in numbers and “do Starlight together as a family.” The show runs through December 12.

Cinema

The Good Dinosaur not up to the Pixar standard By Thomas Simpson

I

Contributor

f it doesn’t seem that long since Pixar released a film, it’s because it wasn’t. Despite releasing Inside Out this past summer, the animation company has brought out The Good Dinosaur, marking the first time in their history that they’ve released two films in the same year. While Inside Out was on the receiving end of a lot of love, it puts a, perhaps unfair, pressure on The Good Dinosaur. Director Peter Yohn along with screenwriter Meg LeFauve reimagine history to present a world where the meteorite that wipes out the dinosaurs instead narrowly misses Earth. This gives the ancient reptiles the chance to evolve, turning an Apatosaurus family into farmers. The runt, Arlo (Raymond Ochoa), is very timid and struggles to keep up with his chores. When he finds himself lost in the wilderness, he begrudgingly befriends a small cave boy who he nicknames Spot. The duo strike up an unlikely friendship

and although the chemistry hits all the right notes, the relationship plays out predictably with nothing special in the script to make it distinct from other efforts. The idea of making a dinosaur the intelligent evolved being while the human is fierce and feral puts a nice spin on it but neither characters are developed enough

Oak Island fine viewing for the whole family

By Paula Hendrickson

doesn’t tend to gush about things very often, so when he does, I pay attention. Later that day he texted me saying new episodes are Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on History. Over Thanksgiving he went into great detail about how these brothers from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan—Rick and

to make them memorable. Although Pixar are known for injecting some adult themes into their films, The Good Dinosaur more than deserves its PG rating. There is nothing overly graphic on display however there’s more than one perilous moment that stretches what level of savagery is acceptMarty Lagina—and their team are trying to uncover a centuries’ old mystery involving hidden treasure, a curse, and possibly even the Knights Templar. The curse claims seven people will die before the treasure is found; there are already six known deaths associated with the treasure hunt. Theories abound about what the treasure is and where it might be—or if it’s even still there. The Lagina brothers have been fascinated with this privately-owned island off the coast of Nova Scotia ever since reading an article about the island’s fabled Money Pit in Reader’s Digest in 1965, the same year four people died in pursuit of the Oak Island treasure. Shortly after reading that same article, Dan Blankenship became so engrossed with the fabled treasure that he and his wife moved from Florida to Nova Scotia where in 1967 he entered a partnership to purchase much of the island. Blankenship has spent much of the past 48 years researching and investigating the island. Now 92, he’s a partner of the Lagina brothers. Technology has improved since Blankenship began his adventure, and the team tries new methods and equipment every season. Fortunately, real-life engineer Marty Lagina

able in a kids film. No one should be surprised to see dinosaurs eating other creatures yet there’s something brutal about seeing a cartoon critter devoured by a vicious pterodactyl. There is a western theme underlying throughout which is highlighted by the arrival of Sam Elliott’s T-Rex and his family of cattle rustlers. No stranger to portraying a cowboy, Elliott’s instantly recognizable voice helps bring a legitimacy to the subtext. With the raptors playing the bad guys, The Good Dinosaur borrows on audiences familiarity with Jurassic Park providing an exciting set piece just as the pace was lagging. The Good Dinosaur may be a poor follow up to Inside Out, but it’s a decent film. The cave boy is adorable and the animation is as stunning as its ever been. It’ll tug on your heart strings like only Pixar knows how but there isn’t any lasting connection. An average entry to an impressive resume. Thomas Simpson is a writer and filmmaker based in Glasgow, U.K. Find him on Twitter: @Simmy 41. has done well enough in the energy business to help finance their quest— in a recent episode he dropped a bundle on heavy excavating equipment. Fellow engineer and partner in Marty’s energy business, Craig Tester, brings specialized drilling and scanning expertise to the team. And Dan’s son, David Blankenship, rounds out the core team. Last week, my sister and I came across the show and tried watching it. We were tired, and came in during the tail end of the episode so we weren’t really getting it. But at my brother’s insistence, I watched a full episode of The Curse of Oak Island the other day and understood why Brice, his wife, and kids all love it. The show is about more than searching for a long-lost treasure. It’s about pursuing your dreams at all costs—and not just financial costs. My brother said he also likes that The Curse of Oak Island is a show the entire family can enjoy together. The kids can learn while being entertained, but it’s interesting for adults, too.

Rockford Rocked Interview

Desolation Row experimenting with heavy sounds

By Todd Houston Exclusive to TRRT

Rockford Rocked Interview: Tell us a little bit about Desolation Row and who the members are. Desolation Row: Jarrett Finley (22) and JJ Whaley (21) share the lead vocals and guitar duties. Jared Hoey (21) drums Eddy Whaley (16), bass. RRI: By listening to some of your songs, it sounds like maybe at least a couple of you are influenced by punk rock. Would this be a fair assessment? JJ: We have a lot of people ask that, but our influences are so varied that we don’t have any two originals that are exactly alike in sound or structure. We are not trying to define a specific sound and love experimenting. Can’t Get Enough has a punk/Ramones influence, while Everything I Need is more of a rock ballad. We like to keep our fans guessing. RRI: Who are some of your other influences? Jarrett: Oh man, we are all over the board with influences, but to name a few, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Foo Fighters, AC/DC, Metallica, Bon Jovi, and a bunch I can’t think of under pressure (laughs). RRI: You guys keep yourselves super busy playing just about every weekend and sometimes twice a week. Where was the biggest crowd Desolation Row has played to thus far? DR: I think the biggest crowd would have to be a show we did with Royal Bliss and Wayland at The District. I heard there were over 400 people there, and we pretended they were all there to see Desolation Row. Jared: We pride ourselves on being the busiest local band in the region. RRI: Last year Desolation Row won the 2015 RAMI Artist of The Year award. Did you guys get to perform? Jarrett: We weren’t asked to perform, in fact we didn’t make it to the ceremony because our PA was down and we were all scrambling that night to trouble shoot the problems. No PA means no shows. We didn’t know we won until the next day when a friend messaged us with congratulations. The RAMI people were really cool about it and understood our situation. They are a great organization that is vital to the music scene in northern Illinois.

6 WEEK PROGRAM

RRI: In a couple of your photos I’ve noticed female fans joining you onstage and taking over the microphone. Does this ever cause a problem and if so does security ever have to get involved? JJ: It’s a huge compliment when people want to get onstage and sing with us. It does get a little crazy at times and occasionally the venue security gets involved, but it’s their rules, not ours. Eddy loves having girls on stage. RRI: I see you guys have played the famous Waterfall bar in Belvidere. Were you aware that famous bands like Fleetwood Mac, Blue Cheer and Ted Nugent played there in the early ’70s when it was called The Rumpus Room? Eddy: We heard that the first time we gigged there. It was crazy to play the same venue as those

awesome artists. I heard REO Speedwagon played there too. RRI: I’m going to say a word or phrase and you respond with the first thing that pops into your bean. Ready? Tracii Guns (Former G-n-R guitarist). Jared: Guns n Roses, LA Guns, are you kidding me. It was insane as a 17 year old to play a show with him and his band. RRI: Mitch Arnold of Waylan. Jared: Rising star in the rock world, and a mentor to us. when we have a question we can count on Mitch to give us hard, in your face advice. RRI: Epiphone guitars. JJ: Great sound and quality for poor musicians like us. RRI: Father and Son Pizzeria (Davis Junction).

Eddy: Great venue that draws a fun group of people to play for. RRI: Favorite local band to see perform. JJ: Totally unfair question. There are so many ultra-talented bands of so many genres we can’t just pick one. We have many friends in many bands in the area and we couldn’t leave anybody out. They all know who they are. RRI: What does 2016 have in store for Desolation Row? Jared: Shows, shows, and more shows. We are concentrating on new venues and new festivals like Byron Fest, as well as some road trips to increase our fan base. We are already 40 percent booked for 2016 so it’s going to be another insane year for the D Row Boys.

Illinois should revise home alone law

By Jeffrey Schwab

and being accused of neglecting your child is traumatic. Having to justify to the government that you have not neglected your child can be humiliating and intrusive. This process is also traumatic to the child. Being taken into custody could lead the child to believe that he or she has done something wrong. It also communicates to the child the message that their parents are somehow parenting poorly, even if parents are not at fault. It also can signal to the child that his or her independence is disfavored. Common sense tells us most 13-year olds are perfectly capable of staying home alone after school while their parent is at work, but that’s no guarantee that an overzealous police officer or government official won’t take that child into custody, requiring the government to make that determination. This law disproportionally affects single-parent, lower-income households, where paying for child care after school is cost-prohibitive. The law essentially targets parents who have no other choice but to have their children stay home alone after school while they are at work. Indeed, Chicago Public Schools has one of the shortest school days in the nation, requiring working single parents to leave their kids home alone after school for even longer. Parents make decisions about whether to leave their children alone based on a number of different factors, including their values, their needs and their child’s ability and maturity. Hardworking single parents should not have to be concerned about the government taking their child into custody because they leave them home alone after school. Parents are the best people to determine their child’s ability to be left unsupervised, not the state. Illinois lawmakers should act to revise the law to make clear what is and what is not considered neglect and to provide assurance to parents that leaving their responsible children home alone after school will not result in the state taking those kids into custody.

A Illinois Policy

ny parents who leave their children age 13 or younger home alone may be guilty of neglect under Illinois state law.

That’s because Illinois law states that “any minor under the age of 14 years whose parent or other person responsible for the minor’s welfare leaves the minor without supervision for an unreasonable period of time without regard for the mental or physical health, safety, or welfare of that minor” is neglected. It’s the strictest law of its kind in the nation. Only a handful of other states have a minimum age for leaving children home alone. For example, three states list 12 as the minimum age for leaving children home alone, while three states set the minimum age at 8. Kansas lists the minimum age at 6. At least 30 states have no minimum age for when a child can be left home alone. While the law in Illinois defines neglect only where the child under 14 years old is left without supervision for an unreasonable period of time without regard for his or her mental or physical, health, safety or welfare, it does not define “unreasonable period of time” or “regard for the mental or physical health, safety or welfare.” Rather, it provides a non-exhaustive list of 15 factors for a court to determine. But that provides practically no guidance to a parent trying to decide when they can or can’t leave their 13-year-old without supervision. Furthermore, those 15 factors are only considered by a court or government official after the child has been taken into custody away from his or her parent, which can be done without a warrant. Even if the child is released back to his or her parent and the court finds no neglect under the factors, having the government take your child away from you for a period of time

Like all the rest, Paris talks are doomed

By Steffen Böhm

E

TheConversation.com

ven if the world celebrates a Paris climate deal on December 11, the process will still have to be regarded as failure. Let me explain why. The basic reason is that the unequal distribution of carbon emissions is not even on its agenda. The historical responsibility of the West is not on the table, nor is a method of national carbon accounting that looks at how the emissions a country consumes rather than produces. Instead, what is on the table are expanded and new mechanisms that will allow the rich, Western countries to outsource their emission cuts so they can paint themselves green. When the figures are in, 2015 is likely to be the warmest year on record and we’ve just reached 1C temperature rise since the industrial revolution, halfway to the 2C widely agreed to be the upper safe limit of global warming. It’s the fastest surface temperature increase in the world’s known geological history. We are now entering “uncharted territory”. The dangers of global warming have been known – even to oil company executives – since at least the early 1980s. Yet, despite 25 years of UN-led climate talks, the world is burning more fossil fuels than ever. This is not simply the fault of big emerging economies such as China, India or Brazil. Instead, what we are dealing with is the fundamental failure of neoliberal capitalism, the world’s dominant economic system, to confront its hunger for exponential growth that is only made possible by the unique energy density of fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gas.

Historical responsibility

A glance at global history reveals how closely energy is linked to economic growth. The Netherlands was the first country to get a taste for exponential industrial growth back in the 16th and 17th centuries – and the Dutch empire was built on the availability of cheap domestic peat as well as timber from Norwegian and Baltic forests. One reason the British took over the Netherlands’ imperial leadership was its vast reserves of cheap coal, which started to be burned at the end of the 18th century, exponentially growing in the 19th century. Then came oil and gas, which helped make America the imperial master from the early 20th century onwards. So there are more than 300 years of massive fossil fuel burning by the so-called West to account for. And while this historical responsibility still played a significant role at Kyoto in 1997 – resulting in emissions cuts that were only legally binding for industrialized countries – it has gradually been pushed into the background. Now in Paris it seems almost forgotten. But

the fact that about 80% of historical carbon emissions have to be attributed to the developed countries cannot simply be wished away. The rapid rise of emissions, particularly in China and India, is often cited as reason for why these rapidly industrializing countries now also have to curb their emissions. I’m not saying that they shouldn’t. Both countries clearly have their own imperial ambitions, which they hope to achieve by stimulating massive industrial expansion. But let’s bear in mind that India’s carbon emissions per capita are still 10 times lower than those of the US. And China’s rapidly rising emissions are to a great extent driven by export-driven industries, producing consumer goods for the West.

Creative carbon accounting

In fact if a consumption-based approach to carbon accounting is taken, the UK’s national carbon emissions would be twice as high as

officially reported. This is also true for most Western European countries and the United States, which have experienced increasing rates of deindustrialization over the past two decades with not only jobs but also carbon emissions being offshored to developing countries. In return the West is receiving cheap consumer goods without recognizing the responsibility for the embedded carbon emissions that come with them. A clear form of carbon colonialism. Of course, some of the exponential growth in carbon emissions by India and China is also due to increases in home-grown consumption. China apparently now has the largest middle class in the world. However, if we take a consumption-based view, then even China’s emissions per capita will not reach the US’s current rate for a long time – and India’s lag further behind. Yet rich countries continue to be eager to outsource their responsibilities. Carbon offsetting will see an unprecedented growth in the coming years. Countries such as Norway and

Switzerland will continue to strike bilateral deals with poor nations desperate for cash. Emissions trading systems (ETS) will allow maximum flexibility for companies to offset their emissions. These are all mechanisms designed to cement the status quo. The EU ETS has not made a significant impact on the trading bloc’s carbon emissions since its inception in 2005, allowing Shell’s chief executive, Ben Van Beurden, to insist even in 2015 that: “The reality of demand growth is such that fossil fuels will be needed for decades to come.” Nothing significant has changed since Rio 1992 or Kyoto 1997. Paris 2015 will be no different. The talking will continue until we realize climate change is a failure of a system, which – on the back of fossil fuel – is geared towards exponential economic growth. Nobody who sits at the negotiation table in Paris has the mandate nor inclination to ask fundamental, systemic questions of the logic of the dominant economic system and the way we consume the resources of this planet.

Your Horoscope By Denise Guzzardo Week of Dec. 2-8, 2015

This Week: Chiron’s recent melancholy activity may have affected some of you a little more powerfully than others. However; its purpose is to heal the wounds and build spiritual as well as physical muscle mass. So now we proceed on our path with a slow and methodical plan to improve the elements in our life with determination. If you have felt fatigue or anxiety, move into the process as opposed to fighting it. Your body, mind and spirit are aligning, sometimes that requires a little rest along the way. Enjoy! Aries (March 21 to April 19) — Should I stay or should I go, seems to be the running theme circling in your head at this time. This could be involving a romantic situation or a professional endeavor. Keep in mind that you don’t have to make this decision this week. As a matter fact, it would be best if you didn’t make any rash decisions during this lunar cycle. Carefully process each option and align it when you’re a little less reactive. Mid-December brings a stable balance into your realm, Aries. Taurus (April 20 to May 20)­— If you are a single Taurus you will find yourself surrounded by new love options during this lunar cycle. The question is, which direction will you choose? You’ve tried all the rest now it’s time for the best. Carefully examine who you are and be honest with yourself as to what type of relationship would truly work for you. Anyone worth their salt will be worth the wait. Meanwhile, those Taurus that are in a committed relationship will be experiencing a second honeymoon stage. Enjoy! Gemini (May 21 to June 20) — Fatigue and anxiety may be creating some poorly expedited behavior out of you. Retrace your steps and distribute your energy with a more balanced format. Your loved ones around you may not be strong enough to endure it, and would prefer a little more emotional support. Keep that in mind as you move forward this week. All will fall into place, Gemini. Cancer (June 21 to July 22) — Try not to be sensitive to a reaction from another this week. This is their stuff to deal with not yours. Listen closely to what they are not saying and go from there. Midweek you’re acknowledged for a job well done by the powers that be. There is public acclaim and notoriety developing now in your favor, Cancer. Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22) — As the holidays approach, more unwanted anxiety arrives. Knowing this, it is within your power to block the escalating shattered calamities and surround you and yours with love and tranquility. Sometimes those with their unresolved issues can become like a crying child, when they don’t get a reaction out of you with one behavior, they create another. Eventually, just like the child, they become exhausted and go to sleep. Keep this in mind as the week progresses, it will be settled soon, Leo. Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) —You may need to go the extra mile this week with a loved one. This may be a time frame where they are questioning where they are at in life and scrutinizing their surroundings. If you have fallen asleep at the wheel in your relationship sec-

tor, you may find yourself on the outside looking in. It only takes an extra moment to let someone know how much you care. This will pay off in the long run, Virgo. Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) — This may be a great time to have a checkup from the neck up, Libra. If you’re even remotely questioning your actions, now is the time to try to make things right. Do not try to fly under the radar now. If you do your actions will come back to haunt you in a big way. You may also be in a position to call another on the carpet for their behavior, be brave and deliver your message with love. There is no room for a grudge at this point and time, Libra. Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) — If you even attempt to keep a secret from friends or family you may live to regret it now. The truth will set you free. Information shared with you in confidence regarding another’s health or welfare needs to be shared with all of those involved in this aspect. Do not fear the consequences of your actions, fear the repercussions of your silence, Scorpio. Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) — Finances continue to improve during this time frame. Although you know you need a break, trust that the universe will provide you with one shortly. The past may attempt to sneak up on you this week in a peculiar way. Try to evaluate why this may be a lesson that you need to revisit. Is forgiveness the issue in

question with you or an outside source? One way or another this will get resolved, try to make the best of the lesson presented now, Sag. Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) — Dealing with the elderly or those that may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer is a test of your overly-challenged patience this week. Try to see the simplicity involved in this lesson of love. Maybe you needed this wake up call after all to recreate your own childlike image. The lighter side of life is not always the wrong way to go, Capricorn. Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) — You may not receive the best news regarding a legal matter this week, but in the long run this may be protecting you from long-term damage. Retrace your steps and try to figure out an alternative solution to your short-term problems. Sometimes the only way around a dilemma is through it, Aquarius. Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20) — A love interest or love from your past may resurface causing you to question your current situation. Take your time and try to look at what all of the options have to offer. You have a habit of trying to close the deal too fast without sometimes reading the fine print. Take your time before you sign on the dotted line, Pisces. For an extended astrological forecast or psychic consultation, contact Denise at 815-398-3983.

Farming

Deciphering labeling on local foods By Grant McCarty Local Foods and Small Farms Educator, University of Illinois Extension

In recent years, I’ve seen an increased adoption of certifications on both produce and livestock farms. Organic, Sustainable, Humanely Raised, Free Range, and Certified Naturally Grown are all labels that farmers may seek out for their product. The reason they apply for these and go through the process can be to lead to marketing channels. For instance, a restaurant or grocery store may ask for a certification in order to purchase from the farmer. It may also be that the farmer sees merit in these practices and wants their customers to know that these are the practices they implement on their operation. This certifications and labeling may be what the customers are demanding as well. Certified Organic is the most common one people hear about. This is a program through the USDA and is a 3 year process for the farmer to go through. During those three years, he or she is adopting practices like crop rotation, cover cropping, no-till, IPM, and others while also setting up a record keeping system. There is a yearly inspection from a certification nonprofit. Certified Naturally Grown is similar to or-

ganic certification but is not run by the USDA. This certification follows many of the principles of the National Organic Program but some growers see it as going further in practices and methods than what organic does. Certified Naturally Grown Farmers and other agriculture professionals handle the yearly inspection. The terms “Natural” and “Sustainable” do not have a certification behind them necessarily. Unlike “Organic” which is trademarked by the USDA, natural and sustainable can be used by the grower/producer in marketing their crops and meat. Talk to your farmer to find out what they mean by sustainable/natural at their operation. In livestock, Certified Humane is a certification program that addresses the livestock and farm management. The terms “Free Range” and “Pasture Raised” currently do not have a legal meaning behind them and these terms may be used freely. With many of these labels, it is best to ask the farmers what they mean by the terms they use. Unlike programs such as Certified Organic, Certified Naturally Grown, or Certified Humane, the practices they adopt in order to use these marketing terms may vary from farmer to farmer.

How long will low corn prices hold up?

By Debra Levey Larson U of I News Bureau

URBANA – Corn prices declined following the USDA’s Crop Production report released on Nov. 10 and continue to trade just above marketing-year lows. According to a University of Illinois agricultural economist, the rate of corn consumption has increased in recent weeks, but the market is skeptical that consumption will increase enough to alter the prospects for abundant year-ending stocks. “The USDA has projected 2015-16 marketing-year corn exports at 1.8 billion bushels, compared to shipments of 1.864 billion last year,” said Darrel Good. “The pace of shipments, however, has been extremely slow during the first quarter of the marketing year. During the first 12.5 weeks of the year, export inspections totaled only 264 million bushels, 94 million less than during the same period last year. New export sales were very large during the week that ended Nov. 19, reflecting large sales to Mexico. Weekly sales of 80.2 million bushels were the largest in 10 months and among the largest on record. Still, unshipped sales as of Nov. 19 were lagging those of a year ago by 110 million bushels. To reach the USDA export projection for the year, shipments will need to increase from an average of 22 million bushels per week experienced so far this year (census adjusted) to 38 million bushels. New sales will need to average about 28 million bushels per week.” According to Good, U.S. export prospects may be bolstered a bit by ongoing dry weather in South Africa. However, the USDA has projected South African exports at only 50 million bushels so there is not much market share to be gained by the United States if that crop continues to deteriorate. Good says that, the larger concern for U.S. export prospects stems from the continuation of the relatively strong U.S. currency and expectations that Argentine exports may accelerate as a result of the eliminationofexport taxes. Reportsindicatethat the current export tax of 20 percent is to be eliminated beginning on Dec. 10. In the November World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) report, the USDA projected 2015-16 marketing-year corn consumption for the production of ethanol and co-products at 5.175 billion bushels. That projection is 34 million bushels less than consumption during the previous year and 75 million bushels less than projected a month earlier. “The lower projection for the current year reflects expectationsofincreaseduseofsorghumforethanol production,” Good said. “High sorghum prices last year, driven by Chinese demand, resulted in increased U.S. sorghum acreage and a 37 percent increase in production in 2015. Increased produc-

tion, along with declining Chinese demand, has resulted in much lower sorghum prices in order to increase domestic consumption.” The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) will release the estimate of domestic ethanol production in September 2015 on Nov. 30. Good saidweeklyestimateshaveindicatedthatSeptember production was up nearly 5 percent year over year. The USDA’s Grain Crushing and Co-Products Production report indicated that only 3 percent more corn was used for ethanol production in September. “The smaller increase in corn consumption presumably reflected more sorghum consumption, although USDA did not release an estimate of sorghum consumption to avoid disclosing data for individual operations,” Good said. An estimate of corn consumption for ethanol production during October 2015 will be released on Dec. 1. Weekly EIA estimates of ethanol production indicate that production in October was up about 4.5 percent year over year. Production in November appears to be up about 2.5 percent, with record weekly production of 296.4 million gallons reported for the week that ended Nov. 27. “The pace of ethanol production during the first quarter of the marketing year implies that the pace of corn consumption exceeded that projected by the USDA,evenwithanincreaseinsorghumuse,”Good said. “Ethanol production during the remainder of the year will be influenced by a number of factors. These include the pace of domestic gasoline consumption and the final EPA rulemaking for the Renewable Fuels Standards expected to be announced on Nov. 30. In addition, the price of ethanol relative to the price of gasoline will have some influence on themagnitudeofethanolconsumption.Thecurrent premium of ethanol to gasoline prices suggests that discretionary blending of ethanol, domestically and internationally, will be minimized. “As always, there is little direct information on the pace of feed and residual consumption of corn,” Good added. “That information will come with the release of the USDA’s Grain Stocks report in the second week of January. Continued low corn prices and some expansion in livestock inventories suggest that use should be on pace with the USDA projection of 5.3 billion bushels.” The USDA will provide updated consumption, year-ending stocks, and price projections in the WASDE report on Dec. 9. “Current consumption progress suggests that projected use will not increase from the November projections,” Good said. “There is some chance that the projected level of exports will be reduced, resulting in a larger forecast of year-ending stocks. Without a surprise in the final 2015 production estimate or Dec. 1 stocks estimate to be released in January, low prices may persist into the spring when U.S. weather becomes an important factor again.”

Steer clear of distracted dining

Chaotic home environment increases kids’ risk of being overweight or obese By Phyllis Picklesimer U of I News Bureau

URBANA – A new University of Illinois study reveals that distracted dining may be as dangerous to your health as distracted driving is to your safety on the highway. “Being distracted during meals puts kids at added risk for obesity and increased consumption of unhealthy foods. In this study, we found that noisy and distracting environments affected parents’ actions, and we know that parents set the tone for the quality of family mealtimes,” said Barbara H. Fiese, director of the U of I’s Family Resiliency Center (FRC). How pervasive are the effects of a disturbance when a family is actively trying to eat a meal together? To test the effects of mealtime distraction, U of I researchers videotaped 60 families during mealtime in the FRC’s family research home. Half the families were subjected to the sounds of a loud

vacuum cleaner in an adjacent room for 15 minutes while they were eating (participants were told on arrival that a popcorn spill had happened at an earlier event and janitors were late in arriving). The other half experienced no distraction. In other measures, participants’ BMI was measured, and food consumption, action, behavior, mealtime communication, and critical communication were observed and recorded during the meal. The effects of the distraction were more marked for parents than for children. Parents ate more cookies and chose more diet beverages over sugary drinks than the quiet group, but they also ate more carrots. Parents and children ate the expected amount of pizza, Fiese said. “The noise did have a big effect on communication. Adults got up and down from the table a lot more and made fewer positive comments. They paid less attention to their children’s concerns in conversation, and we know that kind of conversation is associated with a healthier weight in children,” Fiese noted. Why is this important? When parents are distracted, they’re probably not monitoring what their kids are eating and they’re probably not demon-

strating positive interest in the children, she said. “If you’re getting up and down because you’re distracted during a meal, you’re probably not able to pay attention to the kids’ emotions or to model good responses to your hunger cues—noticing when you’re full and not continuing to eat,” the researcher said. Fiese noted that mindless eating is a frequent topic in other research about adults’ dietary habits, but the topic hasn’t been looked at from a whole-family perspective before. “We haven’t really thought about what it means if adults—who are supposed to be regulating what’s happening—are distracted during family mealtimes. It doesn’t portend well for the family’s

Shadley Apartments

eating habits as a whole,” she said. According to Fiese, the beneficial effects of regular family mealtimes are many and well known. Teens are less vulnerable to substance abuse and eating disorders; younger children do better in school and have fewer behavior problems, she said. “This study shows that it’s not enough to encourage families to eat together regularly without identifying other factors that promote health. Distractions and disruptions may be part of a family environment that is habitually chaotic and unstructured. We know that children raised in chaotic family environments are at increased risk for becoming overweight or obese,” she said.

Energy & Environment

Decarbonizing our energy system By Drs. Robert and Sonia Vogl President and Vice President, Illinois Renewable Energy Association

A

conflicting range of policies is being put forth on how to deal with the threat of climate change. Given the complexity of sorting out the full range of options a new modeling tool has been developed which evaluates over 50 decarbonization strategies to meet the federal mandates from the Clean Power Plan. Known as the Energy Policy Simulator, it was developed by Energy Innovation of San Francisco and is the subject of an article by Gavin Bade. The plan establishes that solutions exist and that they will be profitable. Unfortunately, there will be winners and losers. The plan will provide “policymakers ‘an objective, quantitative tool’ for evaluating different decarbonization strategies.” Many options are possible. It identifies the combination of policies which would meet the goals of the Clean Power Plan, producing $30 billion in savings by 2025 in the electrical sector. If public health and climate benefits are included the savings could reach $200 billion. The policies include a nationwide 25 percent renewable standard, retiring 3 GW of coal plant production annually, a 50 percent improvement in building lighting efficiency, a 3 percent improvement in industrial efficiency and a 6 percent annual increase in coal generation efficiency. The results of the model are national and not divided into regions or states. While the nation as a whole benefits, costs and benefits are not evenly distributed across the country which could give rise to strong resistance. The financial and environmental benefits from these policies assume implementation will start in 2016. If delayed to 2020, emission reductions will be cut 25 percent by 2030. Meeting the additional need to reduce carbon emissions stemming from an agreement with China will necessitate the development of another set of policies impacting the entire economy.

The policies selected include stricter vehicles, building and industrial efficiency standards and rebates for efficient and electric cars. Implementing them is projected to produce $600 billion in savings but is likely to intensify resistance to such actions. An additional policy scenario was constructed in which the U.S. achieves net zero carbon emissions by 2050. While the goal is technically possible political resistance is likely to be daunting. Perhaps an international agreement will be reached in Paris that provides a platform to guide international reductions in carbon emissions. While further carbon reductions in other sectors by the U.S. and other countries are needed to control global climate change, the Energy Policy Simulator provides a reasonable tool to assess the major options. The resistance to curbing carbon emissions comes from interests utilizing fossil fuels. Rather than attack the need to cut carbon emissions, Exxon links the use of fossil fuels to progress. Their paper, The Outlook for Energy: A view to 2040, postulates that the coming decades will enable roughly three billion people from China, India and other non-OECD countries to join the ranks of the middle class and benefit from modern technologies and energy. They see the combustion of oil, natural gas and coal as essential to economic progress through 2040 with nuclear power and renewables playing less significant roles. As political wrangling over controlling carbon emissions persists, the utilization of efficiency, renewable energy and batteries expand as their costs and performance continue to improve. The question remains whether their use will expand rapidly enough to keep climate change below the 2oC target.

Scott Walker boots 15,000 off food stamps in 3 months By Alan Pyke ThinkProgress.org

In just three months, 15,000 people in Wisconsin have already lost food stamps thanks to Gov. Scott Walker’s (R) decision to enforce full work requirements for the program in Milwaukee despite economic conditions dire enough to trigger a federal reprieve. Walker’s administration made the policy change in April. Since then, anyone deemed to be an able-bodied adult with no dependents to care for must prove they are working or participating in job training programs for at least 20 hours per week. Failing to meet that standard means losing Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits after three months. The 15,000 bumped from the rolls from May to July is only half the number the state predicts will ultimately lose food stamps because of the move. The 20-hour weekly work requirement is typically waived when economic conditions are too tight. Since making people hungrier doesn’t create jobs where none exist, the federal government alerts states each year to the areas within their borders where the work rules can be suspended. Other linkages between SNAP enrollment and a person’s willingness to work a job if offered one remain in place, but the hard-and-fast hourly rule is waived. Unless a governor decides not to heed the federal economists who study local labor markets, as Walker did here and numerous other state leaders – most Republican – have done in the past few years. In Wisconsin, about 60,000 of the state’s nearly 800,000 SNAP recipients were expected to be subject to the new rules. There are 14 counties in Wisconsin where the labor market is too weak for the federal government to enforce the requirements. Walker declined to except those counties when his administration reinstated the stiffer rules, leaving food stamps recipients to contend with work rules in local economies where work is too hard to find. The 14 counties contain roughly a quarter of the

state’s 5.8 million overall population, but more than half of Wisconsin’s non-white population. Mostly that’s because three of the state’s most ethnically diverse population centers – Milwaukee, Racine, and Beloit – all qualify as “Labor Surplus Areas” for fiscal year 2016. The additional burdens of Walker’s food stamps decision are therefore falling on about one in four of his citizens, but one of every two people of color in his state. Sherrie Tussler heads the Hunger Task Force, a Milwaukee group that distributes food donations to food banks and shelters. Walker’s move “will bankrupt our food banks” as impoverished people lose access to a modest food stipend, Tussler told the Wisconsin State Journal. There is supposed to be an escape valve for the pressure on anti-hunger networks that states create by imposing work rules in places where federal bean-counters believe they are untenable. Participation in a job training program can stand in for payroll employment to fulfill the requirement. But that valve often fails to rescue people who search for jobs that don’t exist. Few states actually have sufficient slots available in job training programs to satisfy the demand for those slots from people who can’t find work, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. Beneficiaries who are denied entry into a program that’s over capacity still lose their benefits when the three-month clock runs out. In Wisconsin, unemployed food stamps recipients who don’t have a disability or a dependent are automatically enrolled in the state’s SNAP Employment and Training program. But getting SNAP E&T programs right is hard and expensive, and true success at launching people toward self-sufficiency is rare. In Milwaukee County, only one in every 14 childless able-bodied adults who’s enrolled in the state training system has actually found a job through it. The impact of Walker’s move there “will result in wide scale shortages in Milwaukee [food banks],” Tussler wrote to the governor in October.

Police union asks to carry in NFL stadiums

Women can’t bring purses into NFL stadiums, but the police union wants off-duty officers attending games to have guns By Lindsay Gibbs ThinkProgress.org

T

he National Fraternal Order of Police, the nation’s largest police union, has written a letter to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell requesting that he reconsider the league’s ban on concealed carry in its stadiums. The union has been trying to get the policy overturned ever since the NFL instituted it in 2013, particularly the part of the ban that extends to even off-duty law enforcement. It seems the recent attacks in Paris, where a soccer stadium was specifically targeted by ISIS-backed militants, has prompted Chuck Canterbury, the president of the National Fraternal Order of Police, to raise the issue again: “Today, I am writing on behalf of the members of the Fraternal Order of Police to urge you to rescind this policy which weakens the safety and security of NFL players, personnel and fans. The terrorist attacks and threats of attacks from organizations like the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) are selecting targets based on the amount of death

In response to the current outcry, an NFL spokesman reiterated what Jeffrey B. Miller, the league’s vice president and chief security officer, wrote in a letter in 2013 to the National Fraternal of Police in which he stated that while the league doesn’t consider off-duty officers a security risk, it believes “that public safety inside our stadiums is best served by limiting the carrying of firearms to on-duty law enforcement officers specifically assigned to work the game as a part of the public safety plan for the event.” Miller explained that an average of 500 civilian

security and personnel and 150 on-duty uniformed armed law enforcement officers were assigned to every NFL game in 2012, and stressed that the on-duty officers receive extensive training in gameday security and protocols, and are familiar with one another and their respective responsibilities and duties. He continued: “Conversely, off-duty law enforcement officers attend games as spectators. They are unknown to working law enforcement officers…. If permitted to carry concealed weapons, they create deconfliction issues for working law enforcement officers and increase the potential for “blue on blue” response confrontations. They also impact security screening personnel that are required to accurately identify, verify, and authenticate multiple federal, state, and local law enforcement agency badges and credentials. Moreover, off-duty law enforcement officers are not included in the on-site law enforcement chain of command or bound by department or agency on-duty policies that restrict their use of alcohol or subject them to other on-duty behavior statements.” While police officers are using the Paris attacks as a reason why off-duty officers need to be armed in NFL stadiums, it’s important to note that it was security outside of the stadium that actually prevented a terrorist from getting inside and detonating explosives, potentially killing hundreds more people. And while gun enthusiasts, particularly the National Rifle Association, often tout the phrase, “the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun,” the FBI has casted doubts on that logic. The NFL has extensive security measures in place on game days, going so far as to prohibit any bag larger than a wallet unless it is a clear, plastic bag — women cannot carry standard purses into any NFL stadium.

Vardy makes Premier League history

By Alan Clark

in the 2-0 victory through the energetic Thomas Muller before Kingsley Coman added another. Come Sunday, it was up to Borussia Dortmund to win and keep up some sort of challenge to the Bavarians and they rose to the challenge against Stuttgart. Thomas Tuchel’s side were off to a rip-roaring start as Gonzalo Castro powerfully heading on 3 minutes, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang then scored the first of his double shortly after. Stuttgart pulled one back but an own goal in the second period wrapped things up, before late on Aubameyang notched his 17th league goal in 14 games to round off a 4-1 win and remain eight behind Bayern.

Leicester City may not be a worldwide name but they certainly haven’t been doing their chances any harm as they continue an impressive Premier League campaign. They sit second, after 14 games, which for a club that was promoted from the Championship recently is pretty good going. More than that, actually. And it’s more or less down to the talisman that everyone in England is talking about – Jamie Vardy. Wearing golden boots for the occasion, the 28-year-old went into the game Saturday evening hoping to eclipse former Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy’s record, set across two seasons in 200, of scoring in 10 consecutive fixtures. And that’s what he did do – against United of all opponents. He ran onto a through ball in trademark Vardy style and finished well beyond David de Gea to give them the lead. Bastian Schweinsteiger’s equalizer denied Vardy the perfect day, but a 1-1 draw with United in years gone by would have been treated like a victory, so Leicester can take solace in that. It shows how far they have travelled. Arsenal, on the other hand, didn’t travel very far for their game against Norwich City but took the over-exuberant decision to fly just 14 minutes from London to East Anglia, near where Norwich play. It didn’t seem to have the desired effect for Arsene Wenger as a spirited home side performed admirably to gain a point in a 1-1 draw. The Gunners were left ruing an injury to Chile internationalist Alexis Sanchez. Meanwhile, Manchester City got back on track in the hunt for the league crown as they defeated Southampton 3-1. Kevin de Bruyne slotted the hosts ahead before Fabian Delph added the home side’s second with a deflected shot, but Shane Long nodded in to give Saints hope. Aleksandar Kolarov killed that hope though – firing in City’s third with an angled strike. They are now top of the pile, level on points with Leicester but with a superior goal difference.

It’s the M-S-N show at Barca yet again

La Liga must be sick of seeing them. Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar combined to lethal effect for Barcelona yet again at the weekend as the deadly attacking trio starred in a 4-0 win over Real Sociedad. Neymar scored before Suarez netted an outstanding volley and shortly after the half-time break it was 3-0 – Brazilian star Neymar firing in to claim a double. And to round thing off, Messi scored his first league goal in two months following injury with a last-gasp fourth at the Nou Camp. Under-pressure Real Madrid got back to that winning feeling in the league after last week’s with 14 goals. “I’ve had some good runs in my career, it seems like. I think a couple years ago (2013) I had a 14-game streak and then missed a game then went on another 12-game streak,” Kane told CSN Chicago. “Then me, [Brad Richards] and [Kris] Versteeg had some great times last year — for a couple months there I thought we were rolling pretty good. It’s fun when you’re rolling good and you want to keep it going. We’ve had fun together playing with that line with two Russians. Just looking to keep improving, getting better every day.”

Napoli, chasing their first Serie A title since 1990, extended their lead after another fine Higuain finish. Adem Ljajic made it 2-1 but it was to be prove in vain as the hosts saw out the game. Fiorentina drew 1-1 at Sassuolo while Roma lost at home 2-0 to Atalanta in results that will surely delight a resurgent Juventus side who continue to turn around their season. The champions have climbed the table at an astounding pace following a nightmare run at the beginning and after winning 3-0 at Palermo, Juve are fifth and seven points from first place.

However, there is still some cause for concern in regards to certain aspects of the Blackhawks game right now. They remain a mostly one-line team, with their first and third lines struggling to get much going in terms of offense, and the fourth line continuing its usual defensive role. Joel Quenneville kept Jonathan Toews and Marian Hossa apart for much of the trip in California, but it’s probably time he reunites them in an effort to get that top line producing more. Earning a 3-1-2 record and taking eight out of a possible 12 points on the Circus Trip is certainly something that Blackhawks fans can look on

fondly. The Trip had a bit of a rough start, but the Blackhawks found their footing and were able to finish strong. These are good things. It’s not all gravy in Chicago, though, at least not yet. There’s still plenty of work to be done for these Blackhawks, as they are starting to close in on the Minnesota Wild for third place in the Central Division. December will be an important month for these Blackhawks. Let’s hope they head into 2016 strong.

Tales From The Trough

KEEPING PACE

T

he Rockford IceHogs continue to keep pace by racking up wins in week 8. Rockford’s first win of the week was last Wednesday against the San Antonio Rampage. Troy Bourke tallied the game’s first goal with only 52 seconds remaining in the first period to give San Antonio the lead after 20 minutes of play. After failing to capitalize on their first power play opportunity in the first period, the IceHogs tallied on the power play midway through the second period

to knot the score at 1-1. Jeremy Morin potted his fourth of the season, assisted by Vince Hinostroza and Ville Pokka. With the period winding down, Dennis Rasmussen lit the lamp for the fifth time this season to give Rockford their first lead of the game. The go-ahead goal, with 29 seconds left in the second period, was assisted by Cameron Schilling and Morin. Rockford controlled play in the second period, outshooting the Rampage 17-5 while also outscoring San Antonio 2-0. San Antonio managed to square things up with 4:40 left in the game with a Michael Schumacher goal.

It was a perfect time for his first goal of the season, 1:08 remaining in overtime, for Erik Gustaffson to end the game. With 3-on-3 play in overtime, Ryan Hartman found Viktor Svedberg who fed the puck to Gustaffson for the goal. Michael Leighton got the win, saving 26 of the 28 shots he faced, and Calvin Pickard was handed the loss, stopping 34 of 37 Rockford shots. Two days later, Rockford hosted the Chicago Wolves for a Friday evening game. Rockford beat Chicago in a shootout in the first meeting this season back on October 23. Morin got the scoring started 13:49 into the game with his second goal in as many games and his fifth of the season. Rasmussen notched the primary assist and Dennis Robertson earned his third point of the season with the secondary assist. Once again, Rockford controlled the pace of the period and outshot the Wolves 10-4. Tough guy Cody Beach knotted the score at 1-1 4:45 into the second period. With all of the injuries to the ‘Hogs squad, Rockford IceHogs forward Dennis Rasmussen has picked up the slack while playing on the first line with Jeremy Morin and Bryan Bickell. In three games this week, “Moose” tallied two goals and two assists en route to Rockford finishing the week 2-1-0.

The lead didn’t last for more than four minutes as BryanBickellscoredhisfifthfortheIceHogsoffarocket of a wrist shot assisted by Jake Dowell. Bickell used the defenseman as a screen and sniped the puck into the top right corner of the net past Jordan Binnington. Towards the end of the second period, Rockford was rewarded a four minute power-play when Ivan Barbashev was called for a double-minor high stick penalty. Pokka capitalized 45 seconds into the minor to give Rockford a two-goal lead. The 3-1 score would stand throughout the game as Rockford, but not without any third period drama.

of officials. Once he was allowed back on the ice, he was targeting Dowell, who attempted to engage Lindbohm in a fight. The defenseman refused to acknowledge the threat. Beach, Jacob Doty and Jordan Caron were also given 10 minute misconduct penalties before the middle point of the third period, and at one time, the Chicagopenaltyboxwasloadedwithfiveplayers.Intotal,theWolveshad72penaltyminutestoRockford’s30. The following night the IceHogs headed up to Milwaukee for their final game of the week, and the first of a five-game road trip. Despite Rockford outshooting the Admirals 15-4, the game was tied 1-1. Milwaukee’sVladislavKamenevscoredonabreakaway 7:29 into the game. The rookie winger scored his fifth of the season by going to the backhand and lifting thepuck over thestretched out gloveofMark Visentin. Rasmussen continued his strong offensive play with his sixth goal of the season after Rockford won a faceoff in the offensive zone. Svedberg and Gustaffson were credited with assists on the game-tying goal. There was no scoring in the second period, and the Ads dominated Rockford 9-2 despite Rockford earningthreepowerplayopportunitiestoMilwaukee’sone. Rockford earned another power play chance very early in the third period, but was unable to capitalize on their chance. The all-important next goal of the game came in the third period, unfortunately, it was by Milwaukee. Pontus Aberg, who assisted on the Ads first goal, tallied his fifth of the season 7:56 into the period to give Milwaukee the 2-1 advantage. Rockford put pressure on late, but Milwaukee withstood the charge and came away with a 2-1 win. The IceHogs power play struggled and was unable to convert on any of their six chances. The team was very disciplined and only gave up one power play chance to Milwaukee, which they were unable to convert upon. Rockford will continue their road trip with four games in the state of Texas. Rockford will first face the Texas Stars on Wednesday, then head down to San Antonio for two straight games on Friday and Sunday. The ‘Hogs will then head back up north to Cedar Park, Texas to face the Stars once again on Tuesday. The next home game for the ‘Hogs will be Friday, December 11 against the Iowa Wild.

Blackhawks return to home ice By Adam Hess Contributor

L

ast week, I wrote about the rough start the Chicago Blackhawks annual Circus Trip was off to, and how there was potential for the Men of Four Feathers to turn the Trip around by performing better against the better teams they would be playing in California. They delivered, taking five of the six points available to them in the Golden State. Wednesday night in San Jose, the Blackhawks

flexed their muscles and simply outplayed the hell out the Sharks. Chicago was all over them from the very beginning, dominating their way to a 5-2 victory. Friday night in Anaheim, the Blackhawks got off to a rough start, with the Ducks scoring just 1:02 after the opening puck drop. The game went back and forth, with the Ducks eventually taking a 2-0 lead, and the Blackhawks getting a lot of shots on goal but failing to score until there was just 1:41 left in the game. Then again, with

27 seconds left in regulation. And then again less than two minutes into overtime. It was an exciting finish, and a great win to see the Blackhawks pull out. The Blackhawks then rounded out their six-game road trip on Saturday night in Los Angeles. The Kings controlled most of the game, keeping the Blackhawks pinned in their defensive zone for most of the night. But the Blackhawks rode a strong first period performance and a few lucky breaks in the

second period to a 2-0 lead after two periods. Then, in the third period, the Kings gave them the same treatment that they gave Anaheim the night before, scoring two goals in the third period and then winning in overtime. The California stretch offered a lot of encouragement to Blackhawks fans that perhaps had some concerns after the opening stretch of the Circus Trip in Canada, including myself.
