The Grundy County Historical Society encourages Morris Herald-News readers to “look up” as they travel Grundy County and take time to notice some of its historical architecture. LOOKING UP

First impressions are key in all parts of life MORRIS – You never get a

second chance to make a first impression. You’ve heard this expression 1,000 times and usually heed its warning.

Maybe you wear a classic (usually blue) suit for a job interview or hold the door for your date, etc.

But do you carry this expression over into your business? I suspect that we more often spend more time worrying about the end prod-uct, so we lose sight of the im-pression we make on current and potential customers or the company’s image.

Take this story for exam-ple: Imagine you have a rock-ing chair that is considered a family heirloom. You’ve given it a special place in your home and in your heart. When it comes time to have it refinished you ask a friend for a referral. You try to learn a little more about them, but their website has a glitch and is “under construction.” You decide to proceed and take the chair in.

As you walk through their front door, the store is filled with dusty furniture parts and

half-finished pieces against walls that haven’t been paint-ed in years. No one greets you. Your eyes flash about the room stopping on the various handwritten policy signs and the fast food bags that are sitting about. You get a pang in your stomach and walk out. Despite the great work your friend attests to, you decide you cannot trust that the refinisher will care for your rocker as you had hoped.

What do people see when they enter your business, click on your website or read your brochure? Take a mo-ment and review some of the common items that become overlooked.

Be sure to have an en-trance that is free of unre-lated clutter, signage that is well-placed and easy to read, and that your printed collat-eral and website accurately describe your business with photos that are up to date.

For restaurants – be sure your menus are clean, easy to read (especially in low lighting) and free of white-out. Make it a policy not to have handwritten signs.

You know the saying – don’t try this at home? Well, some things should be left to the professionals. If creating brochures, websites or fliers is not your forte, then con-tract a company that makes creating brochures, websites and fliers their business.

Don’t invest your time, energy (and money) in your business and lose customers because they are turned off by your company’s image – or lack thereof.

Wondering if your busi-ness would pass the test? Ask friends, neighbors and associ-ates to review your business. Have them test your website, walk into your storefront and review your collateral. Make it a routine to check your information and update it regularly.

Simple, inexpensive im-provements can have a huge effect on your company’s image and the first impres-

sion you make on potential customers. Paying attention to the details tells your cus-tomers that you value your business and more important-ly, you value their business.

There are plenty of profes-sionals available to help you get your business in shape. Don’t know any?

Call us at the Chamber and we can refer you to a few. And, since everyone has room for improvement, I encourage all of you to visit our business and give feedback on how we can improve our first impres-sion.

MORRIS – Despite high tem-peratures Sunday afternoon, the Morris City Pool was emp-ty of people – and full of muddy water.

Because of heavy rainfall Saturday the East Fork Nettle Creek swelled to flood stages, filling low-lying areas behind homes and at the public swim-ming pool.

“When we can open back up all depends on the creek,” Jim Hitchcock, manager of the Morris City Pool, said Sunday afternoon. “We’ve pulled out all the pumps and anything that could be damaged and we’re just waiting on the creek now.”

A spokesman at National Weather Service in Romeoville on Sunday said the agency had reports of 3.5 to 4.5 inches of rain Saturday night, and had seen social media postings of much higher, which he said was possible.

The National Weather Ser-vice issued Sunday morning a flood warning for the Illinois River at Morris. The warning remains in effect until Tues-day evening, according to the weather service.

The river was at 14.8 feet as of 9:45 a.m. Sunday and was ex-

pected to rise above flood stage, which is 16 feet, by late Sunday and then reach about 17.2 feet by Monday morning. The river is expected to fall below flood stage by Tuesday afternoon.

Another flood advisory was issued Sunday for the Kanka-kee River near Wilmington, which is in effect until Wednes-day evening.

The river was at 5.6 feet as of 9:45 a.m. Sunday; flood stage is 6.5 feet.

The river is expected to rise to near 5.7 feet by early Mon-day, then slowly recede. At 5 feet, minor lowland flooding begins of areas immediately adjacent to the river.

And more rain could be on the way: The National Weath-

er Service predicts thunder-storms are likely Monday throughout the day, and while potential exists for damaging winds, the primary hazard looks to be heavy rainfall and localized flash flooding.

Parts of city under waterHitchcock said because of

the low area the pool sits in

Goold Park, it frequently floods after heavy rainfall – a problem he feels could be fixed if there was funding and approval to place a berm along the north end of the pool property along the creek.

“If we could get some type of berm, if engineers who under-stand flood plains could exam-ine and see what we could put there, it would give us much more wiggle room,” Hitchcock said.

The Morris City Pool wasn’t the only part of town under wa-ter Sunday. On west Route 6 near the Morris Country Club, signs sat on the road Sunday afternoon warning motorists of water on the roadway. The water had since receded, but Kristen Torkelson, who lives west of the signs, said water was across the roadway Satur-day night.

As she sat watching the Blackhawks game she noticed water coming up toward her home, and by the end of the game she noticed water was creeping up on all four sides of her home. It also was pour-ing into her basement from the window wells.

“The water just came down too fast,” she said. “We got about an inch and a half of

MORRIS – The 3 French Hens Country Market offers far more than food and frills.

On Saturday, Morris Hospital and Healthcare Centers had two registered nurses on hand to check blood sugar and blood pressure.

The market also was a selling spot for the Newark FFA, which had plants for sale grown by Newark High School FFA students as a way to support the program.

MORRIS – Ken Sereno re-signed May 4 from his seat as a 2nd Ward alderman after 34 years of service on the Morris City Council.

Through the years, he’s re-mained humble.

“We talked about it, and he was surprised they decided to hold something for him,” said Joan, Sereno’s wife of 63 years.

The city of Morris is hosting an open house from 2 to 5 p.m. Wednes-day for Ken Sereno in the community room of the Mor-ris Municipal Services Facil-ity, 700 N. Division St. Cake and refreshments will be pro-vided, and people can come and go as they please, Morris City Clerk Carol Adair said.

“He’s given his all to this city,” Adair said. “It’s a nice opportunity to express grat-itude for his dedicated ser-vice.”

In 34 years, one might think there would be times when Sereno wanted to walk away.

But he said that wasn’t the case.

“I didn’t think of City Council as a job,” Sereno said. “I always enjoyed it. I’ve met a lot of people and made a lot of memories.”

When he wasn’t at meet-ings or talking to folks in his ward and beyond, Sereno owned and operated Sereno Blacksmith Shop and Sere-no’s Ace Hardware in Morris for 48 years.

Sereno has been active with Grundy County Histori-cal Society and has authored books on the history of Grun-dy County, since he retired

from Ace Hardware in 1995.Joan Sereno, executive

director of Grundy Commu-nity Volunteer Hospice for 20 years, said being involved in the community where they raised their son, Gary, has al-ways been important to them.

Joan Sereno said she never told her husband to leave pol-itics alone, or what he should do with his career. And he never told her to stop work-ing.

“We’ve always encouraged each other,” Joan Sereno said. “That’s what it’s all about.”

Sereno joked that he’s served long enough to have a party.

Registration entirely online for Morris High

By MIKE MALLORY [email protected]

MORRIS – For the first time, Morris Community High School student registration will be completely online.

Online fee payment and reg-istration for the 2015-16 school year on MorrisHS.org will be open from July 29 to Aug. 14.

District 101 Superinten-dent Pat Halloran said some schools have had completely online registration for several years.

“We made online registra-tion available last year and it went pretty smooth,” he said. “We’re trying to make it more convenient for parents and guardians.”

Instructions for the on-line registration process will be mailed July 15 to student homes.

water in the basement and there was four inches of wa-ter standing in each window well.”

On Sunday afternoon her basement was drying out but couches sat stacked on each other on top of five gallon buckets to keep the water from damaging them.

Tree downAt 708 Fremont Ave. in

Morris a large oak tree top-pled over just behind Sonja Torkelson, who was walking from her home at Saratoga Tower to a friend’s house on

Fremont Avenue.“I was walking on the

sidewalk and heard a loud crack,” she said. “I looked and watched the whole tree come down and saw the bulb of roots come up.”

She said if it fell just 30 seconds sooner it would have landed on top of her – but that isn’t what scared her.

“All I could think was it could have hit a car, I was con-cerned about it taking some-one else’s life,” she said.

Neighbors who were stand-ing in the yard examining the downed tree said the home-owners were out of town, but the police were able to contact them to let them know what they were coming home to.

Flash flooding also can cause saturated soil, mudSonja Torkelson looks at the mass of roots and ground that stands taller than her. The tree fell and just missed her as she was walking Sunday morning to a friend’s home on Fremont Avenue in Morris.

The ASSOCIATED PRESS

LEXINGTON, Ky. – John S. Carroll, former editor of the Baltimore Sun and the Los Angeles Times, which won 13 Pulitzer Prizes during his five-year tenure, has died.

He was 73.Carroll died Sunday morn-

ing at his home in Lexington, Kentucky, where he was once editor of the Lexington Her-ald-Leader, said his wife, Lee Carroll. He had been suffering from Creutzfeldt-Jakob Dis-ease, a rare and debilitating neurological disorder.

Carroll was editor and se-nior vice president at the Bal-timore Sun from 1991 until 2000, when he took the head po-sition at the Times that would become his last journalism job in a career spanning 40 years.

His years at the Times were considered a high point in the paper’s recent history, and he and his managing editor Dean Baquet, who would suc-ceed Carroll there and go on to lead The New York Times, were given credit for reviv-ing newsroom morale after a 1999 issue of the paper’s Sun-day magazine whose revenue sharing agreement with the new downtown Staples Center arena became an ethical crisis and source of discord.

The paper’s 13 Pulitzers during Carroll’s five years came after it won just eight in the 1990s. Carroll’s departure came amid increasing ten-sions over newsroom budget cuts and the paper’s direction with corporate owner, the Tri-bune Company.

He received a standing ova-tion from the staff when he an-

nounced his resignation, and the Times’ then-publisher Jeff Johnson told The Associated Press that Carroll left behind an “extraordinary legacy of journalistic excellence.”

Born in New York and raised in North Carolina and Washington, D.C., Carroll graduated from Haverford College in Pennsylvania in 1963 and took his first job as a reporter for the Providence Journal in Rhode Island.

He served two years in the Army and in 1966 went to work as a reporter for the Sun, where he covered the Viet-nam War and the Nixon White House. Carroll shifted to edi-

tor with a move to the Phila-delphia Inquirer in 1973. He was hired by editor Gene Rob-erts, who successfully sought to transform that paper into a major force in journalism in the 1970s.

Carroll moved to Lexington in 1979, becoming editor at the Lexington Herald, which lat-er became the Lexington Her-ald-Leader.

While there, he oversaw an investigative series titled “Cheating Our Children,” focusing on the flaws in Ken-tucky’s public education system and helping lead to a major series of legislative re-forms in 1990.

The ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOSTON – Funeral ar-rangements for an American killed in Syria while fighting the Islamic State group have been set for later this week.

Keith Broomfield, who had no military training, is believed to be the first U.S. citizen to die fighting along-side Kurdish forces against ISIS.

Broomfield, 36, of West-minster, Massachusetts, will be buried Wednesday at a private ceremony following a morning funeral at Grace Baptist Church in Hudson. A wake will be held at the church Tuesday evening.

Broomfield, a plant man-ager at his family’s Bolton-based business, Broomfield Labs Inc., died June 3. His body arrived in Boston’s Lo-gan Airport on Saturday via a Turkish Airlines plane and was taken to Tighe Hamilton

Funeral Home in Hudson.His obituary said he died

“in defense of those being persecuted for their Chris-tian faith” and that “his heart was for the protection of the innocence of Kurdish women and children.”

Kurdish officials have said Broomfield died in bat-tle in a Syrian village near Kobani. Hundreds of people came out to bid farewell to Broomfield before his body was handed over to his fami-ly at a Turkish border cross-ing.

Broomfield had joined the People’s Protection Units known as the YPG on Feb. 24 under the nom de guerre Gel-hat Rumet. The YPG are the main Kurdish guerrillas bat-tling the Islamic State group in Syria.

Broomfield’s family has said he felt compelled to fight against what he considered “evil.”

DAVID W. SANDERSBorn: Nov. 29, 1952; in Morris, ILDied: May 26, 2015; in Fountain

Inn, SC

David William Sanders, 62, of Fountain Inn, South Carolina, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Tuesday, May 26, 2015.

Born and educated in Morris, he was a pipe fitter by trade, and very fond of Jacksonville, Florida, where he lived and worked for many years.

He is survived by and greatly

missed by his daughter, Ann Sand-ers; son-in-law, Jamespaul Watson; grandson, Logan “Wilson” Sanders of Fountain Inn, SC; and sister, Jane (Glen) Shelton of Joliet, IL.

Those wishing to honor his memo-ry may make memorial donations to cancer research.

NANCY WISMANBorn: Aug. 29, 1939; in Sumter, SCDied: June 10, 2015; in Morris, IL

Nancy Rush Wisman (nee Holla-day), age 75, of Morris, and formerly Sumter, South Carolina, passed

away peacefully, Wednesday, June 10, 2015 at Regency Care of Morris.

Born Aug. 29, 1939, to the late S.P. and Marie (nee Rog-

ers) Holladay in Sumter where she was raised, educated and resided for many years.

Beloved mother of Helen Wisman, Janel Losh, Jane (Tim) Kamradt and Joe Wisman. Loving and devoted grandmother of Elizabeth; Meganne, Dillon and Tyler; Amanda, Bobby, Madison and Kylie; and Brett. Proud great grandmother of eight. Dear

sister of Frank (Sharon) Holladay, Tony (Janice) Holladay, Cindy (Mike) Bordwine and Lisa Holladay. Many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins also survive.

Preceded in death by her parents; one brother, Bobby Holladay and one sister, Jhoann (late Reggie) Goodman.

Nancy, a kind spirited, Christian woman loved her family and enjoyed attending church.

The Wisman family will always be grateful to the staff of Regency Care in Morris for their care and compas-sion shown Nancy in her last days.

As it was Nancy’s wish, cremation

rites have been accorded. A memori-al service will be held at a later date in Sumter, S.C. with inurnment to follow in Evergreen Cemetery, also in Sumter.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Love is in the air. A change of direction is imminent, and your self-confident attitude will be a bonus when it comes to making professional changes.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – If you pay attention to small details, you will avoid having to do extra work

later on. Once you take care of your responsibilities, you will have time for play. Don’t get involved in gossip.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Everything will go your way and you will get the cooperation you need to pursue an important project. If you display leadership, you will quickly gain followers. Romance will improve your personal life.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Honesty is the best policy. If you try to deceive someone, you will face opposition and your reputation will suffer. Do whatever it takes to maintain the status quo.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Professional changes are evident and joint ventures look promising. You will receive a useful tip regarding a finan-cial investment. Love and romance will lead to happiness.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Devote some time to your career pursuits. Get outdoors with family or friends and explore local areas of interest.

The togetherness will be good for you and will help clear your mind.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Don’t make a move until you have done your research. You are only getting half the information you need to make a decision. Someone will try to take credit for your work.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You will misinterpret kindness for weakness. Consider the long-term repercussions of any contracts or agreements before signing them. Someone from your past will come back into your life.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Carefully scrutinize any deals, purchases or commitments that are offered to you. An obscure detail could be costly if it is overlooked. Mixing business and pleasure will lead to regret.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – You will be asked to assist someone who helped you in the past. It may be difficult, but your grace and compas-sion will be appreciated. Enter new projects with an open mind.

14 OPINION

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.THE FIRST AMENDMENT

At its most basic level, Hil-lary Clinton’s polling problem is pretty simple: Everybody knows her.

When a poll reveals that, say, 20 percent of voters have a favorable impression of Candidate A, and 30 percent have an unfavorable impres-sion, and 50 percent don’t know enough to have any im-pression – well, it’s not great news, but it also says Candi-date A has room to grow. He or she can work on that big group of undecideds and try to leave them with a favorable impression.

Clinton, perhaps the most famous woman in the Unit-ed States, if not the world, doesn’t have that opportunity. In the latest CNN poll of the Democratic presidential race, for example, just 3 percent said they have no opinion of her. Fifty percent said they have an unfavorable opinion her, versus 46 percent favor-able. For Clinton to surpass 50 percent favorable, she will have to convince people who already know her, and who have probably known her for years, to change their opinion of her. Not an easy task.

The CNN survey, and other similar polls released recent-ly, shows some pretty signif-icant structural problems for Clinton. One is the yawning divide between the opinions that men and women have of her.

“Want to talk gender gaps? She has a huge one,” notes one adviser to a Republican presidential campaign. The adviser points to several in the CNN poll:

• When asked whether Clin-ton “cares about people like you,” 57 percent of women said yes, while just 36 per-cent of men said the same – a 21-point gender gap.

• When asked whether

Clinton “inspires confidence,” 57 percent of women said yes, while just 41 percent of men said so – a 16-point gender gap.

• When asked whether Clinton “is honest and trust-worthy,” 49 percent of women said yes, while just 34 percent of men agreed – a 15-point gender gap.

• When asked if they have an overall favorable or unfa-vorable opinion of Clinton, 54 percent of women said favor-able, while just 38 percent of men said the same – a 16-point gender gap.

“Those are the definition of problematic data,” notes the GOP campaign adviser. “Imagine the story if these numbers existed for a Repub-lican.”

There are signs some Re-publicans are already bene-fiting. In CNN’s poll back in March, Clinton led Marco Ru-bio in a head-to-head matchup 55 percent to 42 percent. In the new poll, she leads Rubio 49 percent to 46 percent.

Of course, the GOP has problems of its own, but numbers like that convince Republicans they are on the right track.

“With every shoe that drops, people become more and more convinced that Hillary Clinton cannot be trusted,” says an aide at yet another GOP campaign. “They increasingly believe she’s in this for herself, and that entrusting her with our safety and security is a really, really bad idea.”

MORRIS – Summer basket-ball season is in full swing in Morris, starting with the Gus Macker 3-on-3 Tournament last week.

This week, it’s time for the Morris Ladies Shootout, a 32-team event held at Morris Community High School for the 19th straight year.

Games tip off at 8 a.m. Tues-day and will take place each hour on four different courts.

The main gym at the high school and the three courts in the District 101 Rec Center will be used.

The 32 teams will be di-vided into four eight-team pools, with each pool playing round-robin on Tuesday.

The results from Tuesday will determine the matchups for Wednesday’s bracket play.

Pool A: Lincoln-Way West, Sycamore, West Aurora, Coal City; Pool B: Plainfield South, Lincoln-Way East, Metea Val-ley, Minooka; Pool C: Bloom-ington Central Catholic, Ro-meoville, Andrew, Kaneland; Pool D: Serena, Plainfield North, Bishop McNamara, Moline; Pool E: Annawan, An-tioch, Hononegah, Erie; Pool F: Canton, Geneseo, East Auro-ra, Deerfield; Pool G: Ottawa, Willowbrook, Danville, Oswe-go; Pool H: Yorkville, Waubon-sie Valley, Pleasant Plains, Morris.

“We actually had a team [Deerfield] drop out last week,” said Morris girls bas-ketball coach Kate Carey, who also runs the event. “We are going to see if we can get an-other team to come. If not, we may have to have our JV team step in and play those games.

“We did have a waiting list this year, so a lot of teams want to come here. That’s nice because there are a lot more shootouts around now for peo-

ple to choose from.”The shootout gives the

Redskins a chance to see how they stack up this year.

Lost to graduation from last year’s 19-win team is the pro-gram’s all-time leading scor-er, Julie Jurasits, along with starters Emily Burling, Jes-sica Ponce and Leona Burton and reserve Alex Kjellesvik.

“It will be a different dy-namic for our girls, for sure,” Carey said. “They will have to learn to play without looking for Julie. We have done well in our summer league so far, and we look like we will be a good defensive team. We have

some size and Mya Shannon looks good at point guard. This tournament is a good chance to see what we need to work on. I have challenged our girls that we need to develop some outside shooting, so we will be looking at that quite a bit this

week.“We wanted to put our-

selves in a pool that plays a little later in the day so that our kids’ parents could come watch. Yorkville is in our con-ference, so it’s not great that they are in our pool, but their last day of school is Tuesday, so they had to play later in the day, too.”

Besides Shannon as a re-turning starter, the Morris roster will feature Megan Smith, who saw significant playing time last year as a sophomore, as well as Jessica Jurak, Kalya Cryder, Destiny Cano, Megan Jurak and Devin Pacheco.

“Last year, we always had the luxury of looking for Ju-lie,” Carey said. “This year, aside from Mya, no one has a clearly defined role for us yet. It’s going to be fun to watch the girls figure it out.”

MCHS offers sports camps this summerAREA ROUNDUP

BULLS

Cleanup from Thibodeau not the only concern in coach shuffleBy JOE COWLEY

[email protected]

On the same day that a league source confirmed the Bulls indeed landed San An-tonio assistant Jim Boylen to join the staff of newly-named head coach Fred Hoiberg, there was still some clean-up going on with the old regime.

Specifically, just how para-noid the Bulls front office was in the final weeks of the Tom Thibodeau era.

While it was reported that the front office did have se-curity escorting Thibodeau throughout his clean-up pro-cess on the day he was fired, and eventually out of the building, there had been extra eyes on assistant coach Andy Greer and video coordinator Dice Yoshimoto for weeks.

Both were also dismissed along with Thibodeau, but it was Yoshimoto that had the organization the most con-cerned, as they were under the belief that he was gather-ing e-mails and information that, according to the source, “would embarrass a lot of peo-ple and show the level of dys-function going on.”

“It was like some James Bond stuff going on,” the source also said on Sunday, insisting that computers and cellphones were combed through in order for the orga-nization to try and pin down what Yoshimoto was up to.

The source said that while there was believed to be noth-ing significant found by the front office, they were still under the belief that it existed and was hidden.

That’s also why Jerry Re-insdorf’s statement on the day Thibodeau was fired had a definite read between the lines message in it. It was no secret that both sides felt there were leaks going on throughout the

season, especially from a front office that had been rumored to be courting Hoiberg for over a year, as well as one that back in training camp had no prob-lem trying to turn Thibodeau’s players against him.

Even on the day he was fired, between Reinsdorf, gen-eral manager Gar Forman and VP of basketball operations John Paxson, the three had no problem trying to poison Thi-bodeau’s reputation.

BLACKHAWKS

RAYS 2, WHITE SOX 1

Hawks unfazed by hopes to win at home

Sale needs an offense that does him justice

By MARK POTASH [email protected]

Can the Blackhawks final-ly win a Stanley Cup at home? Can they lay claim to a mod-ern-day NHL dynasty with their third Stanley Cup cham-pionship in six seasons?

And while they’re at it, can they allow their fans to revel in the anticipation of that glo-rious moment instead of rely-ing on some sudden, last-min-ute heroics – Patrick Kane’s awkward overtime goal that virtually nobody saw in 2010 against the Flyers; and two-goals-in-17-seconds in the final 1:16 that turned defeat into a Cup-clinching victory in 2013 against the Bruins?

Yeah, right. Hawks captain Jonathan

Toews’ singular focus will al-low for none of that malarky heading into Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Monday at the United Center.

Where they do it, how they do it and the historical ramifi-cations are only distractions.

All Toews knows is that the final step is a giant one, against an opponent that arguably has given the Hawks more fits than any other since they first became Cup cham-pions in 2010.

All the Hawks have done so far is win three-out-of-five coin flips – each game of the Final has been tied in the third period. Neither team has led by more than one goal in any game. But with Patrick Kane still in the clutches of

Victor Hedman; with Light-ning captain Steven Stamkos yet to speak up in this series; and with the Lightning still inches away from winning ev-ery game, the Hawks are tak-ing nothing for granted.

“Obviously there’s a lot of buzz, a lot of excitement, a lot of things going on around the entire event,” Toews said. “We’re just going to do our best as individuals to focus on our job as players and focus on the game and nothing more. None of that stuff is really go-ing to help us achieve what we want to achieve. That’s where our heads are at right now.”

Again, the Hawks have their own playoff history on their side.

They are 9-0 in Game 6 with a chance to clinch under

Hawks coach Joel Quenne-ville. But this time the Game 7 in their pocket is at Ama-lie Arena. So the urgency is as great as ever. “We played a really good game [Saturday night]. We’re looking to build off that,” Toews said.

Indeed, the Lightning are counting on their own strong will to carry them in an elim-ination game. They rallied from a 3-2 deficit to beat the Red Wings in the first round.

They won Game 7 at Madi-son Square Garden to oust the Rangers in the Eastern Con-ference final.

“There was actually a little bit of rage after [losing Game 5],” Lightning coach Jon Coo-per said. “If they’re going to be angry birds [Monday] night, that’s what I want.”

By DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN [email protected]

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – White Sox fans haven’t had much to cheer about during this disappointing season, but they do have Chris Sale.

Their prized left-hander continued his assault on op-posing hitters and record books Sunday, striking out 12 Tampa Bay Rays – Sale’s fifth straight game with 10 or more strikeouts and fourth in a row with 12 or more, numbers that put the 26-year-old in the same class with names like Sandy Koufax and Pedro Martinez.

But a 2-1 loss that complet-ed a three-game sweep was the latest glum reminder that something so good, so special, seems to be going to waste.

The Sox couldn’t muster enough offense, leaving run-

ners in scoring position in five of the first six innings against right-hander Nathan Karns.

“It almost seems like we have to be perfect a lot of times because we’re not scoring a lot of runs,” acting manager Mark Parent said. “It’s tough on them. When you get an outing like you got from [Jeff] Samardzija yesterday or Sale today, which was amazing, it just seems like he deserves seven or eight runs.

“We just need to pick it up offensively, that’s for [darn] sure.”

Sale was the third pitcher since data is available to strike out 12 in four consecutive starts. Martinez did it in 2001 (he had a streak of five in ’99) to go with a four-game streak in 1997. Randy Johnson strung together five straight of 12 or more in 1998. This was Sale’s

24th game with 10 or more, in 97 starts.

“The maturity of Chris Sale from this year to last year is going through the roof, just on and off the field,” Parent said. “It seems like he has really ma-tured to that next level, almost superstar-type guys.”

While blaming himself for walking the leadoff hitter in the seventh and allowing a two-run homer to Asdrub-al Cabrera, Sale did his part. Meanwhile, watching him blow through opposing is bit-tersweet because that three-time All-Star talent was a big reason why the front office accelerated its rebuilding plan and spent big on new additions Samardzija, Melky Cabrera, David Robertson and Adam LaRoche over the offseason.

The Sox went into Sunday’s game in last place in the AL

Central, and as enjoyable as it is watching Sale dominate, it would be tough to watch it go to waste should the Sox contin-ue to flounder as a team.

“You have to overlook that,” Sale said of the Sox’s pit-ter-patter offense.

“That’s a bunch of crap if you ask me. You look at my last few starts and I’ve had more than my fair share [of runs]. Today was my night to pick them up and I didn’t. Plain and simple. I got beat.

“It sucks pretty bad – to have that team pretty much where you want them and then a stupid mistake walking the guy and leave a fastball right down the middle and lose the game. There’s really nothing more than that.”

Protecting a 1-0 lead after Carlos Sanchez drove in Gor-don Beckham with a single

in the second inning against right-hander Nathan Karns, Sale breezed through the first six innings, retiring 17 of 19 before the leadoff walk in the seventh.

Sale is in some kind of zone with an ERA of 0.92 in his last four starts, overlapping a a stretch of three straight starts of 12-plus Ks with one or no runs allowed. He and Koufax are the only ones who’ve done that.

Sale himself had a tough time finding words to describe it.

“Yeah, I feel like I had pret-ty good feel for all three of my pitches, being able to throw them for strikes,” he said. “To-night I was off a little bit and I was able to corral that in. I’m doing same. I wish I could tell you. I just go out there and try to pitch.”

We’re just going to do our best as individuals to focus on our job as players and focus on the game and nothing more. None of that stuff is really going to help us

achieve what we want to achieve. That’s where our heads are at right now. Jonathan ToewsHawks team captain

CROSSWORD SUDOKU BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

CELEBRITY CIPHER

PUZZLES

Will Rogers said, “Get someone else to blow your horn, and the sound will carry twice as far.”

In bridge, it is impossible to win a trick twice, but sometimes a card could take a trick in more than one way. Then, it is usually important to capture the right trick -- as in this deal.

Cover the West and South hands. East is defending against four hearts. West leads the diamond ace. How should East plan the defense?

In the old days, North would have responded two no-trump, showing a balanced hand with 13-15 points and fewer than four hearts. Now, though, most pairs use the Jacoby Two No-trump response, indicating game-going values with four-card heart support. Some pairs would respond three no-trump, but it is better to restrict that to 3-3-4-3 or 3-3-3-4 distribution, offering the opener a choice of games. Also, note South’s three-club raise. With two low spades, that is a much better rebid than two no-trump.

An East who plays on autopilot would drop the diamond eight at trick one, starting a high-low with his doubleton. West would then cash his diamond king and give his partner a diamond ruff.

But that would be the end of the defense. South would draw trumps and discard his spade loser on either dummy’s diamond queen or the fourth club.

East has a guaranteed trump trick -- he does not need the ruff. At trick one, he should drop his diamond deuce. Then, if West immediately shifts to a spade (or after cashing the diamond king), the contract will be defeated. And given South’s club raise, West would surely find that play.

BASIC CABLE

Dear Doctor K: You mention atherosclerosis in many of your columns. Could you ex-plain what this word means?

Dear Reader: My readers ask me many questions about atherosclerosis, and for good reason: It is the No. 1 cause of premature death in devel-oped nations, including the United States.

Atherosclerosis is a narrowing of the arteries. Ar-teries are blood vessels that supply fresh, oxygen-rich blood to the heart, brain, intestines and other organs. The narrowing is caused by the buildup of plaques in artery walls.

The plaques are filled with LDL cholesterol – so-called “bad” cholesterol.

As a plaque grows inside the wall of an artery, it begins to block the flow of blood. At first, the blockage is so slight that there are no consequenc-es. But if a plaque grows very large, it can starve the organ fed by the artery.

Another, more sinister, thing can happen with a plaque. Even if it is not big enough to block blood flow, that can change in an instant. Here’s how:

The plaque has a cap of fibers that hold in the choles-terol. If there is inflammation

inside the plaque, it can dissolve the fibers.

Suddenly, the cap rup-tures, spilling cholesterol into the inside of the artery.

That can promptly cause a clot that completely blocks the flow of blood.

Without oxygen and other nutrients that are carried in the blood, the organ’s cells may die or suffer severe damage.

This is how most heart at-tacks and many strokes hap-pen. (I’ve put an illustration showing how atherosclerosis can lead to a heart attack on my website, askdoctork.com.)

There are many things you can do to reduce your risk of atherosclerosis. For example:

• Don’t smoke.• Maintain a healthy

weight.• Eat a healthy diet that

is rich in vegetables and fruits; use healthy fat oils • monounsaturated (olive) and polyunsaturated (safflower, peanut, canola) • for cooking; and emphasize fish and plant protein sources (soy, beans, legumes).

• Exercise regularly.• Control high blood pres-

sure. You may need medica-tion to do this.

• If you have diabetes, control your blood sugar.

High LDL cholesterol is a big risk factor for athero-sclerosis. If diet and exercise alone do not bring your cholesterol down to target

levels, you may need medi-cation. The best medicine to lower cholesterol is a statin. Statins were developed only after basic scientific research discovered what prompts the liver to make large amounts of LDL (“bad”) cholesterol.

That Nobel Prize-winning discovery made statins possi-ble, and also led to the recent development of another powerful group of medicines that can lower LDL cholester-ol. They’re currently called PCSK9 inhibitors, but I’ll bet (as with statins) we’ll come up with a simpler name soon.

• Write to Dr. Komaroff at askdoctor.com, or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.
