芝加哥马拉松赛

温度持续走高

随着气候变化导致比赛日（包括本周日）气温升高，赛事条件正变得不那么理想

保持水分。

本周日正午时分，当数万名跑者参加美国银行芝加哥马拉松赛时，预计气温将攀升至 60 多度至 70 多度之间。

对于长跑来说，这并非最糟糕的天气。但这在季节上属于异常温暖——10月11日的正常最高气温为 65 度——且“并不理想”，自 2007 年起担任马拉松赛首席医疗与安全官且是西北纪念医院急诊医师的乔治·钱帕斯表示。

“每个人都应该尊重天气，”他告诉《论坛报》。因此，组织者要求参赛者留意周日的黄色旗帜预警系统，通过调整配速、减速并保持——

研究已经确定了一个可以优化跑者表现的温度“黄金点”。但非营利组织气候中心去年的分析发现，由于人为引起的气候变化导致全球气温上升，到 2045 年，全球 221 场赛事中有 190 场出现最佳天气条件的概率将会下降——其中包括雅培世界马拉松大满贯的八场赛事，芝加哥赛便是其中之一。

“我们需要发声”

伊利诺伊州高中及大学生抗议性暴力

周四正午时分，伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校（UIC）平日安静的四方庭院里聚集了约三十多名学生，他们手持抗议标语并分发传单，谴责性暴力。在讲演中心B栋外的人行道上，一幅色彩鲜艳的临时粉笔壁画覆盖了地面，上面用醒目的字体写着“我们就是简·多伊”和“停止指责受害者”等信息。

UIC是芝加哥及全州范围内数个出现学生抗议的校园之一。此次抗议起因于上个月在康奈尔大学重新浮出水面的一起两年前的性暴力案件。一名被称为“简·多伊”的女性上个月提起民事诉讼，此前一名检察官拒绝对七名男子提起刑事指控。该女性指控这七名男子在 2024 年她于这所常春藤联盟学校纽约州伊萨卡校园的一次兄弟会派对上醉酒时对其实施了强奸。

刑事调查的重启以及特别检察官的任命，使康奈尔大学和执法部门处理该案件的方式受到了新的关注——这引发了全国性的头条新闻，并激起了关于校园性暴力的讨论与愤怒。这种强烈抗议促使全国各地的学校加强倡导、提供资源和支持，以帮助学生和性侵受害者应对后续影响。

本月，尤其是伊利诺伊州的学生们抓住了这个时机，旨在提高人们对性侵普遍性的认识，并探讨当局如何处理此类问题。

周四的“全国行动日”促使林肯公园高中的数百名学生在正午时分走出教室，以表达对 UIC 以及位于州南部的圣路易斯大学爱德华兹维尔分校“停止性暴力”抗议活动的声援。

周四下午，学生发言者拿起扩音器，谈论问责制的重要性，并要求在康奈尔大学性暴力事件中获得公正。23 岁的诺娃·莫希乌丁 (Nova Mohiuddin) 是 UIC 芝加哥社会主义替代方案学生分会的组织成员，她是第一个接过麦克风的人。

“我认为反击性别歧视至关重要，尤其是当这么多人将其常态化的时候，”这位经济学专业四年级学生说道，“我认为现在比以往任何时候都更需要我们发声。”

总统宣布暂停对伊朗的打击

特朗普将暂停打击与选举挂钩；林肯号航空母舰返回圣迭戈

作者：Josh Boak 和 Aamer Madhani，美联社

华盛顿 —— 唐纳德·特朗普总统周四表示，在美国 11 月 3 日中期选举之前，他不会下令恢复对伊朗的军事打击。

特朗普发表此声明的同一天，林肯号航空母舰在支持伊朗战争的创纪录长期部署后，回到了其位于圣迭戈的母港。此前有报道称，船员压力大且心理健康状况不佳，同时还存在包括食品和卫生用品在内的供应短缺。

当航母缓缓驶过圣迭戈市中心的城市景观，靠近码头时，数十名水兵站在甲板上。码头上，欢呼的家人们拿着鲜花和气球，摇着牛铃等待着。

国防部长皮特·海格塞斯（Pete Hegseth）周三飞抵航母，向全体船员颁发总统单位表彰奖章（Presidential Unit Citation）。这是一个单位能获得的最高荣誉，通常仅授予在战斗中取得重大成就的单位。

海格塞斯反驳了所谓的将“林肯号变成某种象征——无论是功能失调的象征、士气低落的象征，还是任务失败的象征”的企图。

海军告知立法者，在这次创纪录的部署期间，有 8 名水兵企图自杀；但专家表示，在 10 个月内、由 6,000 名水兵组成的打击群中，这一数字处于较低水平。

特朗普本周在为共和党助选时暗示，他有信心战争的终局可能会在选举前后的几天内到来，同时也暗示他仍然

普雷克温克尔提出预算方案，以临时补救措施填补缺口

库克县面临 5.5亿美元 资金缺口

作者：A.D. Quig 芝加哥论坛报

库克县委员会主席托妮·普雷克温克尔周四将县财政状况描述为一场“完美风暴”袭击，且未来的天气将更加恶劣。与此同时，她提出了一项 2027 年预算方案，该方案将避免增加税收，但将严重依赖一次性补救措施来填补 5.5亿美元 的缺口。

普雷克温克尔政府计划采取一系列临时措施来维持运营，以替代在 2027 年征收新税、增加税收或裁员，从而弥补由联邦医疗保健削减、员工薪资及福利成本上升，以及一场昂贵的法律败诉（导致该县无法将交通“锁箱”资金用于其公共安全办公室）所造成的资金短缺。

虽然她表示 2027 年将是“具有挑战性的一年”，但普雷克温克尔和县委员们都预见到 2028 年的预算压力

马拉松（摘自 A1 版）

这种情况在全国乃至全球其他地方也同样存在。据当地媒体报道，最近在 5 月，由于高温，荷兰的多场马拉松赛事中有数人需要医疗救治，其中至少两名参赛者需要进行心肺复苏。

气候中心（Climate Central）首席项目官兼马拉松高温研究首席分析师安德鲁·珀辛（Andrew Pershing）表示，这代表了社会因气候变化而开始面对的一种决策困境。

他说：“我们都必须思考这样一个事实，即我们所预期的天气条件正在发生偏移。因此，无论是开学时的天气，还是夏季开始足球训练时的天气，现在与过去已经截然不同，而且在未来的 20 年里，差异会更加明显。”

研究温度如何影响马拉松运动员速度的科学家发现，顶尖女性跑者在 50 度左右表现最佳，而顶尖男性跑者则在 39. 度时表现最佳。顶尖跑者是指排名前 $1\%$ 的运动员。业余男女跑者的最快速度分别出现在 44 和 43 度。比赛日天气的有利程度因跑者类型而异，因为天气因素会与他们的身体组成、生物性别和运动技能产生相互作用。

研究发现，在气候变化的影响下，到 2045 年，芝加哥马拉松赛中顶尖男性跑者在比赛日获得这些最佳日平均温度的概率预计将维持在 $14\%$。在同一时间跨度内，顶尖女性跑者的概率将从 $57\%$ 下降 $3\%$。

在接下来的 20 年里，芝加哥马拉松赛中业余男性跑者获得最佳跑步温度的机会将维持在 23%，而业余女性跑者的概率仅从 25% 下降一个百分点。

虽然与其他赛事相比，未来芝加哥马拉松赛出现良好天气的可能性预计下降幅度较小，甚至没有下降，但这并不意味着对于某些群体来说，比赛日的温度不会变得更糟糕——或者根据你的看法，可能会变得更好。

“在气候问题上，你处理的始终是概率，而气候变化的本质就是大气中的温室气体如何改变这些概率，”珀辛说。“我们会观察……在某个地点，我们预期出现接近 70, 接近 50, 接近 40, 温度的频率是多少？然后我们模拟随着地球升温，这些概率将如何偏移。”

跑者在往年的 10 月赛事中已经经历过异常高温。

气象局数据显示，2021 年芝加哥马拉松赛当天，平均温度为 75 度，比正常值高出 18 度。2007, 年，由于高温达到 80 多度（比该日期的正常最高温高出约 20 度），马拉松赛不得不停止。一名患有心脏病的 35 岁跑者在赛道上晕倒后死亡。

“当时真的没有因为高温而停止比赛的先例，”钱帕斯回忆道。“我认为我们 2007 年的决定毫无疑问地确立了我们现在所拥有的、真正的马拉松医学最佳实践。”

他表示，除了高温之外，2007 年 10 月那个周日，高达 80%-85% 的“相当过分”的湿度进一步恶化了跑步条件。

“包括顶尖跑者在内的所有跑者都经历了一场极其艰难的比赛。我们基本上停止了赛事，以免医院不堪重负，”钱帕斯说。“你知道，作为一名跑者，你无法战胜湿度。”

现在，他认为赛事在运行上能够通过援助站、饮水站、医疗站以及距离终点 5 英里的 Biofreeze 冷却区，来支持跑者度过一个温暖的比赛日。

钱帕斯表示，在过去的几年里，芝加哥马拉松赛的组织者对赛道进行了更仔细的观察，并意识到在同一天，沿途的温度可能会有所不同。

“在整个 26.2 英里的赛程中，情况并非完全相同，”钱帕斯说道。

具体而言，他们发现，在第 14 到 19 英里之间——涵盖了西环区（West Loop）、希腊城（Greektown）和近西区（Near West Side）社区——温度可能会高出 3 到 5 度。这可能是由多种因素造成的，例如远离湖泊的冷却效应、缺乏树木，以及大量蓄热的沥青和混凝土。例如，国家气象局芝加哥办事处在本周早些时候的一份预报中指出，周日在伊利诺伊州海岸附近的感觉会更凉爽。

“在马拉松周日，（跑者）应该意识到，当他们向西进入赛道的西部区域时，天气会变得稍微暖和一些，尤其是如果阳光充足的话，”他说道。“他们当时的感觉可能很好——‘我已经跑完马拉松的一半了’。但实际上，温度可能会稍微升高。”

高温、湿度与天气预报

来自埃尔姆赫斯特的 43 岁跑者亚历克斯·史密斯（Alex Smith）可以证明湿度所带来的差异。在跑步过程中，他除了记录配速和心率外，还仔细记录了露点——一种衡量空气中水分的指标。

“露点真的成了我更主要的指导指标，”史密斯说道。

他回忆起今年训练期间的一次 18 英里跑步，当时气温为 72 度，露点为 71。

“那是我整个（训练）周期中最艰难的一次跑步。感觉就像是在空气中艰难地前行，”他说，“每一英里都是一场战斗。”

露点与体感温度指数一样，可以让人们大致了解室外的舒适程度。根据气象局的数据，露点在 55 或以下被认为是“干燥且舒适的”；55 到 65 之间感觉“黏糊糊的”；任何 65 或以上的数值都会让人感到压抑，或者用史密斯的话说，像“死亡”一样。

在 2024 年参加了他的首场马拉松赛后，史密斯创建了一个名为 chi.run 的本地指南，作为一个独立资源（不隶属于美国银行芝加哥马拉松赛官方）。他写道，该指南旨在分享“在芝加哥生活和训练时真正重要的事情。如何度过冬日的里程。如何应对夏季的湿度。”

当室外湿度较高时，由于大气已经饱和，出汗的散热过程效率会降低。因此，汗液无法有效蒸发，而是粘在皮肤上，导致身体无法冷却。随后，身体会尝试增加皮肤血流量以释放热量，这意味着心脏跳动得更快。

“你将血液输送到皮肤以进行冷却。如果你这样做，那么输送到身体其他部位——你的肌肉、心脏……以及大脑的血液就会减少，”伊利诺伊气候行动临床医生协会（Illinois Clinicians for Climate Action）执行董事会成员、Duly Health and Care（原杜佩奇医疗集团）急诊医生特德·希（Ted Shieh）表示。

这就是为什么跑者在高温高湿环境下必须更密切地监测心率。

“我知道在露点非常高的日子里，我必须慢下来，”史密斯说，“并且要主动降低配速，以控制心率。”

34 岁的凯文·达利瓦-帕莱兹尼（Kevin Daliva-Paleczny）一直在密切关注天气预报，他是计划在当天参加美国银行芝加哥马拉松赛的来自全国乃至全球数万名跑者之一。

这位居住在威克公园（Wicker Park）的居民在交谈中坦言，他从小并不是一名运动员。而在重大日子临近时容易积累的焦虑感曾让他陷入强迫状态；在他结婚的那一周，他的手机相册里充满了天气预报的截图。他记得在比赛前，他会不断刷新电子邮箱以获取天气更新，就像在等待工作面试的回复一样。

如今，在完成了九场马拉松赛后，达利瓦-帕莱兹尼的感觉有所不同，他鼓励那些在 Instagram 和 TikTok 上关注他跑步旅程的人也放下这种焦虑。“我还是会截天气图，但我不再让它占据我的全部心思，”他说。

“我们已经在一些非常糟糕的条件下训练过了。天气一直很热且非常潮湿。……是的，这场马拉松将是我们整个周期中最艰难的事情，”他说，“但如果我们一直自我心理暗示，或者过多地思考这件事，或者过度担心这件事，我们最终相当于担心了两次。”

钱帕斯表示，在 10 月准备芝加哥马拉松赛让北半球的跑者能够在夏季月份进行训练，使他们的身体有时间适应较高的温度。

虽然跑者仍应查看天气预报，但提前太多天查看可能会引起不必要的焦虑

——尤其是在芝加哥这样的地方，天气往往让人感到难以预测得令人沮丧。

在 2024 年，《华盛顿邮报》分析了联邦数据以评估天气预报的准确性——特别是每日最高气温

——在全国范围内，并发现大平原地区和中西部部分地区的天气最难以预测。伊利诺伊州的预报仅在提前两天时才能将误差控制在 3 度以内，不过寒冷月份比温暖月份更容易预测。

这是因为在“国家的广阔中部”，不存在调节因素——例如能吸收太阳热量的大洋，或能抑制干扰性天气系统的干旱沙漠——而且气团经常相互交汇，例如一些来自墨西哥湾的暖气团和一些来自加拿大的冷气团，从而导致温度迅速波动。

芝加哥赛事的未来与纪录

钱帕斯表示，由于芝加哥地势平坦且年度赛事期间处于秋季天气，许多业余跑者来到这里是为了刷新个人纪录，而精英选手则来追逐世界纪录。

2023 年，已故的肯尼亚长跑运动员凯尔文·基普图姆（Kelvin Kiptum）在此以 2:00:35 的成绩创下了新纪录，该纪录在今年早些时候的伦敦被打破。然而，根据气候中心（Climate Central）的数据，在许多其他赛事中，气温升高降低了创造纪录跑的概率。美联社报道称，例如在 5 月打破基普图姆纪录的萨巴斯蒂安·萨韦（Sabastian Sawe），上个月在柏林因反常的温暖而未能打破自己的纪录。

去年柏林出现最佳温度的概率对大多数跑者来说非常低，对于精英男子跑者仅为 1%。根据气候中心的分析，到 2045 年，这一概率将降至零。

即便有利的跑步条件在芝加哥可能不会变得那么罕见，但以往高于常态的高温经历已导致其他主办城市（即使是在大平原和中西部各州）调整未来的赛事日期。

美联社报道称，由于 2023 年的赛事因创纪录的高温和高湿度而取消，且 2025 年起跑温度达到 70 度，明尼阿波利斯-圣保罗的双城马拉松赛将从 2027 年起，将举办时间移至该月较晚时段，而非 10 月的第一个星期日。报道还提到，南达科他州的苏福尔斯马拉松赛在因高温取消 2024 年赛事后，去年同样将比赛时间从 8 月移至 9 月。

这些调整虽然必要，但仍可能给试图参加不同赛事的跑者带来后勤上的麻烦。跑者在长距离比赛后使用的一个经验法则是，每跑一英里至少休息一天，因此马拉松赛后大约需要休息 26 天，以便进行生理和细胞修复。

随着一些主办城市调整赛事日期，这可能会在通常允许跑者参加不同马拉松赛的密集赛程中产生冲突。例如，芝加哥和纽约马拉松赛通常在三周之内举行。

“现在出现了一股巨大的跑步热潮，尤其是新冠疫情之后，人们更愿意参加尽可能多的马拉松赛，”达利瓦-帕莱兹尼说。“马拉松跑者总会想办法实现的。我知道有人大约两周前跑了柏林赛，这周又要跑芝加哥赛。所以，我们会想办法的。”

至于心怀希望且回归的芝加哥马拉松跑者是否需要根据赛事运营的任何变化来调整其计划和策略，目前尚不明确。

“我们显然在审视所有组成部分和变量。是否要更改路线或不更改。但最重要的是，我们已经建立了运营机制和系统，希望能应对温暖、寒冷或多风的日子，”钱帕斯说。“目前我认为 10 月对我们来说是一个合适的日期，但显然我们会关注行业内发生的所有这些情况。”

第 48 届年度芝加哥马拉松赛将于周日上午 7:30 在市中心的格兰特公园起跑并完赛。

被 ICE 探员枪杀男子家属提起索赔

针对美国政府 潜在诉讼的 首个正式步骤

作者：劳拉·罗德里格斯·普雷萨 (Laura Rodríguez Presa) 芝加哥论坛报

在西尔韦里奥·维列加斯·冈萨雷斯于富兰克林公园的一次交通拦截中被一名移民执法探员枪杀致死一年后，其家属正寻求联邦政府的问责。

代表维列加斯·冈萨雷斯家属的律师于周四上午根据《联邦侵权索赔法》提交了一项索赔申请，这是针对美国政府就其死亡事件提起潜在诉讼的首个正式步骤。

该索赔称，38 岁的维列加斯·冈萨雷斯被一名 ICE 警员“不必要且非法地”杀害，且联邦官员随后歪曲了枪击事件的情况，并未能对其进行妥善调查。国土安全部（DHS）未立即回应置评请求。

“这项索赔是为西尔韦里奥之死寻求真正问责的第一步，”麦克阿瑟正义中心（MacArthur Justice Center）伊利诺伊州办公室的高级法律顾问乔纳森·马内斯（Jonathan Manes）表示，该中心与国家移民正义中心共同代表该家属。“此举旨在告知政府我们打算起诉，以查明西尔韦里奥遭遇的真相，揭露他如何被一名警员不公正且不必要地杀害，并为其死亡获得问责。”

此次提交申请之际，联邦政府对维列加斯·冈萨雷斯之死的调查仍存在疑问。在 2025年9月12日枪击事件发生一年多后，政府尚未公开披露开枪击毙该男子的 ICE 警员身份，也未公布调查结果。

维列加斯·冈萨雷斯当时刚刚将两个年幼的儿子送到日托中心，在前往工作的途中，于“中途闪击行动”（Operation Midway Blitz）初期，在芝加哥西郊富兰克林公园的格兰德大道（Grand Avenue）和埃尔德巷（Elder Lane）附近被 ICE 探员拦截。

在冲突过程中，维列加斯·冈萨雷斯颈部中弹，随后其驾驶的 2004 年款斯巴鲁汽车撞上了一辆半挂车。

国土安全部在枪击事件后不久表示，维列加斯·冈萨雷斯拒绝服从指令，并驾驶车辆冲向警员，撞击并拖行其中一名警员“一段相当长的距离”。联邦官员称，该警员因担心生命安全而开枪。

随后，证人证词和视频证据对政府的说法提出了质疑。家属律师也对该说法表示异议。

索赔申请中指出：“现有的视频证据表明，西尔韦里奥当时是在远离警员行驶，而非冲向他们。”根据该申请，视频和法医报告证明“……开枪的警员当时站在车辆旁边，而非其行驶路径上”。

该申请还指出了富兰克林公园警察局的执法记录仪画面，其中据称受伤的 ICE 警员告诉现场警员，他的伤势“并不严重”。

库克县法医报告发现，维列加斯·冈萨雷斯的颈部左侧中弹，子弹向下运行并嵌在右下胸部。弹道显示，警员开枪时站在车辆驾驶员一侧的旁边。

“法医得出结论，杀死西尔韦里奥的人是从近距离向下射击其颈部，”诉状称。“因此，该 ICE 官员在开出致命一枪时，正站在西尔韦里奥车辆的驾驶员侧，实际上是在近距离处处决了西尔韦里奥。”

法医判定其死因为他杀。

该诉状还对政府将维列加斯·冈萨雷斯描述为“一名有鲁莽驾驶前科的非法犯罪移民”这一说法提出了质疑。

“西尔韦里奥不是罪犯，”诉状称。“他只有几次交通违章记录——其中唯一的行驶违章可以追溯到十多年前的 2013 年。”

《论坛报》未发现以维列加斯·冈萨雷斯之名登记的犯罪记录。

伊利诺伊州官员还对联邦政府缺乏配合表示担忧。

伊利诺伊州警察局在 5 月宣布，富兰克林公园警察局已请求其公共诚信工作组对此次枪击事件展开调查。调查完成后，预计将移交给库克县州检察官办公室。

但州长 JB 普利兹克表示，联邦政府拒绝提供所要求的证据，且不允许相关特工接受采访，这使得州政府的调查“几乎不可能完成”。

他说，联邦政府尚未提供伊利诺伊州要求的关于枪击事件的信息，也没有安排特工提供证词。

“我们甚至不知道在街头开枪打死西尔韦里奥的警员叫什么名字，”马内斯说。

由于一名 ICE 官员枪杀了冈萨雷斯，这起联邦侵权诉讼将美国国土安全部（DHS）和美国移民及海关执法局（ICE）列为被告。马内斯表示，由于联邦调查局（FBI）参与了调查，该机构也被列为被告。

“我们寻求根据法律追究对西尔韦里奥之死负责的人，并揭开他死亡情况的真相，”马内斯补充道。

对于维列加斯·冈萨雷斯的家人来说，追究责任的斗争与争取其两个儿子的监护权的斗争交织在一起，这两个孩子是他去世当天早晨见到的最后的人。

诉状称，在父亲去世后的三天内，孩子们被爱达荷州当局带走，并被安置在爱达荷州东部的寄养家庭中，距离他们在芝加哥和墨西哥的亲属数千英里之遥。

诉状和家属称，在孩子们的母亲搬到爱达荷州后，维列加斯·冈萨雷斯一直在争取男孩们的监护权。他此前已获得部分监护权，并即将被授予永久唯一监护权。

家属表示，男孩们的母亲后来失去了父母权利。

如今，维列加斯·冈萨雷斯的大哥何塞·维列加斯及其妻子（两人均为居住在芝加哥地区的美国公民）正寻求领养这两个男孩。

“对我们来说最重要的是继续奋斗，把他们接回家，”维列加斯·冈萨雷斯的妹妹格拉西埃拉·维列加斯告诉《论坛报》。

爱达荷州卫生与福利部以儿童福利案件的保密性为由，拒绝发表评论。

墨西哥驻芝加哥总领事雷娜·托雷斯·门迪维尔表示，墨西哥政府将继续为该家庭提供法律代表，支持他们寻求与孩子团聚。领事馆代表已多次陪同何塞·维列加斯前往爱达荷州探望男孩们，而这些孩子一直无法与他们在墨西哥的家人沟通。

马内斯表示，孩子们仍然是该家庭法律努力的核心。

“这场诉讼的目的是为了让孩子们受益，”他说。“何塞作为西尔韦里奥的哥哥，无法从这场诉讼中获得一分钱。”

他说，从联邦政府获得的任何赔偿都将交给维列加斯·冈萨雷斯的直系亲属，包括他的孩子们。

“你无法补偿一个人失去父亲的痛苦，无法补偿失去父亲之爱的遗憾，也无法补偿失去那份指引的缺失，”马内斯说道。“但金钱是我们能做的最好的补偿，而这正是他们试图为孩子们所做的，以确保他们能得到照顾。”

对于马内斯而言，洗清维列加斯·冈萨雷斯的名誉是该家庭追求正义的重要组成部分。

“对于他的家人来说，伤口依然新鲜，”他说。“他们最希望的是真相大白，洗清西尔韦里奥的清白之名，因为政府对他进行了虚假的抹黑，并且希望他的死亡能得到公正的对待。”

该诉讼请求就维列加斯·冈萨雷斯的死亡、其子女和配偶所遭受的损失，以及其车辆及其内部物品的损坏寻求赔偿，律师估计后者损失至少为 $10,000。

该诉讼还根据《伊利诺伊州非法死亡法》（Illinois Wrongful Death Act）和《生存法》（Survival Act）寻求赔偿。马内斯表示，该家庭打算尽快推进此案。

“对于那些在我们的街道上非法且不必要地杀害人们的联邦执法人员，必须追究其责任，”他说。“这是西尔韦里奥的家人可以采取的迈向问责的一步，但联邦政府以及我们伊利诺伊州当地的检察官也必须承担责任。”

芝加哥学校董事会终于启动其委员会工作

在21名成员就职近两年之后——且在一次至关重要的选举前仅三周——芝加哥学校董事会终于启动了其在财务、运营和学生成功方面的三个常设委员会。

目前尚不清楚教育委员会为何在章程要求的情况下，仍花费如此长时间才组建这些委员会。长期以来，倡导者一直将这种模式视为一种简化治理的方式，通过让小规模小组专注于具体问题来实现。委员会的任命于上月公布，各小组于周四首次召开会议。

董事会发言人未回应置评请求。

由于选举将在几周后举行，董事会的构成可能会在短短几个月内发生重大变化。所有21个董事会席位都将重新竞选，尽管大多数成员都在争取留任，但预计竞争将非常激烈。

由董事会成员领导但由社区成员组成的特殊教育委员会和学区“黑人学生成功计划”委员会，也计划在接下来的六周内召开会议。这两个委员会去年就开始接受申请，但其启动过程一直陷入延迟。

芝加哥公立学校的21人董事会是全美规模最大的董事会之一，其从数十年的市长控制转向混合体制的过程中，有时会出现阵痛。目前，其中10名成员由选举产生，11名由市长布兰登·约翰逊（Brandon Johnson）任命。这种动态加剧了与约翰逊及其盟友芝加哥教师工会立场一致的成员与非一致成员之间的分歧。

Kids First Chicago 的政策主管哈尔·伍兹（Hal Woods）表示，在政治博弈之中，由七名成员组成的委员会可以帮助董事会专注于明确的优先事项。它们还能在董事会做出决定之前，为成员提供更实质性的信息。

“你需要由较小规模的成员小组来深入研究这些问题，提出疑问，并基本上提供信息更充分的建议，”伍兹说道。

委员会是许多大型选举机构的标志性特征。

例如，芝加哥市议会设有19个常设委员会，监督从公共安全到住房的广泛议题。

学校董事会的三个委员会将每月举行一次会议，在全会每月会议投票之前，审查合同、政策和其他行动事项。对于每项议题，委员会将就全会应如何投票提出建议。

该学区的“黑人学生成功计划”已在州法律中编纂，董事会去年秋天开始接受监督该计划实施委员会的申请。但由于特朗普政府的一项调查指称该计划具有歧视性，该计划在很大程度上陷入停滞。该计划旨在消除黑人学生在学术和机会方面长期存在的差距。

之前的7人董事会组建了特殊教育咨询委员会，但该委员会自2024年11月以来一直未召开会议。

FEMA 拒绝伊利诺伊州针对 8 月风暴的灾难援助请求

共和党总统唐纳德·特朗普政府拒绝了伊利诺伊州关于重大灾难声明的请求。该声明原本将为包括库克县和威尔县在内、于今年 8 月遭受严重风暴袭击的 8 个县解锁联邦援助。该州最高级别的民主党人指责总统将灾难救援政治化。

民主党州长 JB Pritzker 的办公室在周四发布的一份声明中表示，联邦紧急事务管理局（FEMA）局长卡梅伦·汉密尔顿在周三的一封信中写道，联邦援助“并非必要”。Pritzker 政府表示将对 FEMA 的决定提出上诉。

此次拒绝发生在一个伊利诺伊州极端天气频发的创纪录年份。根据 Pritzker 办公室的数据，今年迄今为止，国家气象局已确认该州发生了约 212 场龙卷风，位居全美之首。此外，特朗普政府去年也拒绝为伊利诺伊州的风暴提供联邦援助，其中包括 2025 年 7 月部分地区降雨量达 5 到 6 英寸的暴雨，导致地下室被淹，数千栋房屋受损；伊利诺伊州估计每户家庭的平均损失为 \$16,784。

Pritzker 在一份新闻稿中表示：“我们的社区仍在收拾今年夏天严重天气造成的破坏碎片。唐纳德·特朗普绝不应该拿人们的家园、企业和基础设施来玩政治游戏。当一个巨大的风暴系统跨越州界时，由此产生的损失应当在公平、一致且基于相同客观标准和准则的情况下进行评估，无论它影响的是哪个州。”

FEMA 向邻近的印第安纳州提供了灾难援助——这是一个坚定的共和党州，同样经历了长达两周的停电

——以帮助该地区从 8 月份许多相同的严重风暴、龙卷风、洪水和强风中恢复。

美国参议员、伊利诺伊州资深参议员且为民主党人的迪克·德宾在声明中表示：“就像一个发脾气的幼儿一样，唐纳德·特朗普继续惩罚那些在上次选举中不支持他的州居民。这种行为有损于他所担任职位的尊严。”

周四未能联系到 FEMA 的发言人。该机构此前曾否认政治在其决策中发挥作用的说法。

但 2026 年全年的报告显示，特朗普对灾难声明的拒绝不仅给伊利诺伊州蒙上了阴影，也影响了整个联邦灾难响应系统，批评者称总统已将其扭曲以服务于政治目的。

Politico 旗下 E&E News 在 3 月份的一项分析发现，在坚定的民主党州（定义为拥有民主党州长和两名民主党美国参议员的州）提出的灾难声明请求中，特朗普仅批准了 23%，而坚定的共和党州的批准率则为 89%。此外，特朗普决定是否批准坚定民主党州请求的平均时间为 80 天，是坚定共和党州的两倍多。

此次涉及 8 月风暴的拒绝，是特朗普与 Pritzker 之间长期不和的最新冲突点。Pritzker 将攻击总统的政策作为其在 11 月 3 日选举中竞选第三任期的核心。共和党州长候选人达伦·贝利批评 Pritzker 对风暴的反应太慢，这些风暴给包括南部郊区在内的多个地区造成了相当大的破坏。

贝利在周四的一份准备好的声明中表示，在“直线风暴（derechos）和破坏性风暴影响了全州无数农民和家庭之后”，特朗普政府拒绝为伊利诺伊州提供救济，对此他感到“失望”。

“我会要求联邦紧急事务管理局（FEMA）重新评估并撤销这一决定。但如果我们希望确保未来的这些决定不被党派之争所蒙蔽，那么，如果本州能有一位愿意为了本州的利益而与民主党人和共和党人合作的领导人，或许会比较明智，”贝利说道。“JB·普利兹克竭尽全力表现得像个霸凌者，仅仅因为别人与他意见不合就侮辱他人。如果这次决定中掺杂了政治因素——那是因为 JB·普利兹克是一个毫无阶级修养的霸凌者，根本不知道如何治理国家。”

他的办公室表示，在风暴过后，普利兹克发布了一项州灾难公告，以便为响应和恢复工作提供额外的州资源。包括伊利诺伊州紧急管理局和国土安全办公室在内的州政府机构，已协助地方官员进行损害评估和电力恢复等工作。

库克县委员会主席托妮·普雷克温克尔承诺再拨款 $800 万，以继续清理 8 月风暴影响的南部郊区地带的碎片。普雷克温克尔最近表示，该地区已有约 100,000 立方码的碎片被清除。

前埃文斯顿 D65 学区总监在联邦回扣案中改口认罪

作者：克莱尔·墨菲 (Claire Murphy) 先锋报 (PIONEER PRESS)

在原定针对前埃文斯顿 / 斯科基第 65 学区 (Evanston / Skokie School District 65) 总监德文·霍顿 (Devon Horton) 的联邦审判开始前两周多，霍顿在周一的一次出庭中改变了最初不认罪的立场。他被指控在任职期间主导了一起回扣计划。

霍顿去年被起诉，涉及 17 项重罪指控，包括挪用公款、电汇欺诈和逃税。检察官将其行为描述为企图挪用第 65 学区资金，并通过批准三家其好友公司的工作合同，为自己谋取超过 $81,000 的回扣。10 月 5 日，他在芝加哥的联邦法院对其中三项指控认罪。

托马斯·M·德金 (Thomas M. Durkin) 法官接受了霍顿对这三项指控的认罪。第一项涉及电汇欺诈，即霍顿利用电信手段故意欺诈第 65 学区资金；第二项涉及将学区财产转为个人使用；第三项涉及在所得税申报单中未申报非法所得。

德金法官下令进行量刑前调查，以协助法院就霍顿最终的处罚做出决定。

美国检察官艾米莉·弗米伦 (Emily Vermylen) 周一告知法院，霍顿对三项指控认罪将减轻其刑期。她表示，如果法院认为霍顿在量刑时已明确表现出对犯罪行为的承担责任，预计刑期将在 87 到 108 个月之间，即大约七到九年。

在他认罪的指控中，最严重的一项如果被定罪，最高可判处 20 年监禁。在 2025 年 10 月的提审听证会上，霍顿最初对所有 17 项联邦指控均表示不认罪。根据地区法院记录，检察官此后撤销了其中一项指控。

当被要求就决定承认三项指控发表声明时，霍顿向德金法官承认，他未能向第 65 学区教育委员会披露其财务利益，不恰当地使用第 65 学区的采购卡（P-card）支付个人开支，并且在 2022 年和 2023 年申报所得税时，未披露其从涉及罗斯、罗斯和刘易斯 (Ross, Ross and Lewis) 的活动中获得的收益。

“霍顿博士今天对某些指控认罪，主要是因为他从一些认识的学区承包商那里收回了部分资金，而这是错误的，”他的律师特伦斯·坎贝尔 (Terence Campbell) 在给《先锋报》的一份声明中表示。

“他已经承认了自己的不当行为，并为自己的行为承担责任。德文·霍顿是一个好人，他将职业生涯致力于改善数万名学生的教育，我相信在案件结束后，他将成为社区中的一股积极力量。”

联邦法院记录显示，霍顿改口认罪是在共同被告塞缪尔·罗斯 (Samuel Ross) 决定与检察官合作并在 9 月 29, 达成认罪协议之后。

根据联邦法院记录，作为对一项电汇欺诈指控认罪的交换，检察官同意在罗斯被量刑后撤销对其余指控。

根据联邦起诉书，被告塞缪尔·罗斯以及前芝加哥公立学校员工安东尼奥·罗斯 (Antonio Ross) 和阿尔方佐·刘易斯 (Alfonzo Lewis) 均为霍顿的朋友。据称，他们同意在专业服务合同获得批准以及获得额外付款的同时，向霍顿支付回扣。

起诉书指控这三名好友在授予合同方面撒谎，并做出“实质性的虚假和欺诈性陈述，以使人误认为霍顿与这三人之间没有个人或经济利益关系，且互不关联”。

塞缪尔·罗斯与安东尼奥·罗斯并非亲属关系。

截至10月5日，安东尼奥·罗斯（Antonio Ross）和刘易斯（Lewis）均未改变他们在2025年10月提交的无罪抗辩，并将于本月21日接受审判。霍顿（Horton）于2023年辞去了第65学区的教育局长职务，随后不久在佐治亚州迪卡尔县担任迪卡尔县学区的教育局长。在2025年10月的联邦起诉消息传出后，他随后辞去了该职务。

根据迪卡尔县法院记录，霍顿在1月份与妻子发生口头争执后，于8月在佐治亚州因涉嫌严重袭击和虐待儿童的独立指控而被起诉。这些指控的审判日期尚未确定。

对伊朗重启全面军事行动持开放态度。

数周以来，特朗普一直威胁称，尽管他最初承诺军事行动将仅持续数周，但在中期选举后升级这场已持续 7 个月的战争仍是一个可行的选项。

但特朗普在周四的一篇社交媒体帖子中表示，美国“在11月3日举行美国中期选举之前的任何时间都不会攻击伊朗”。

特朗普补充说，他的团队一直与“伊朗伊斯兰共和国进行着富有成效的讨论”。

美国和伊朗曾在6月签署了一项短暂的临时协议，旨在建立一个为期60天的停火协议以及一项永久和平协议的框架。

这项由特朗普和伊朗总统马苏德·佩泽什基安签署的协议在几周内便崩溃了，原因是军事行动重启，以及围绕霍尔木兹海峡控制权的争端——这条关键水道在战争爆发前承载了全球五分之一的石油流量。

自特朗普上月底公开拒绝伊朗提出的“若美国满足某些条件，则在七天内重新开放海峡”的建议以来，谈判似乎陷入了僵局。

然而，伊朗上周表示已收到美国的反提案。外交部长阿巴斯·阿拉格奇在周四早些时候表示，他预计德黑兰将在几天内给出正式答复。

特朗普周三在德克萨斯州圣安东尼奥的一次竞选集会上表示，他的特使史蒂夫·威特科夫一直在与伊朗官员进行间接谈判。

但与此同时，特朗普暗示他对此时结束战争持有矛盾心理。

“我认为达成协议并不是我真正想做的事情，但他们愿意提供任何条件来停止（战争），”特朗普说道。

特朗普认为美国正在获得筹码，因为美国军方在帮助油轮穿越霍尔木兹海峡并将海湾盟友的石油运往市场方面取得了更大成功，而海军的封锁则切断了伊朗自身的石油出口。

随着美国中央司令部在夜间引导油轮关闭定位系统穿越海峡，伊朗对这条关键水道石油流量的近乎绝对控制权已经丧失。这一点，加上绕过海峡的海湾管道的帮助，使得海湾国家能够以接近战前水平的规模出口石油。

但总体而言，船舶交通量仍远低于战前水平，液化天然气和燃料产品的运输量也是如此。

航运分析师表示，那些愿意在中央司令部保护下冒险闯关的油轮运营商，在某些情况下收取的费用每天高达100万美元或更多。

随着沙特阿拉伯和也门政府发起军事行动，旨在将伊朗支持的胡塞武装从曼德海峡（另一条中东石油及其他商品贸易的关键航道）驱逐出去，局势变得更加复杂。而胡塞武装则反过来利用无人机和导弹袭击沙特机场及该国关键基础设施。

一名证人告诉美联社，周四在沙特阿拉伯首都听到了多次爆炸声，包括利雅得国际机场的一次剧烈爆炸；就在此前一天，沙特表示一次针对该机场的袭击造成一人死亡，多人受伤。

爆炸立即对市场产生了影响，原油价格随之跳升。根据航班追踪网站 FlightAware 的数据，数百架往返利雅得的航班被取消。

邻国也门境内受伊朗支持的胡塞武装声称对利雅得哈立德国王国际机场的新袭击负责，称弹道导弹造成了破坏，但未提供证据。沙特方面对此主张未立即发表评论。

预算 接 A1 版

将会更加糟糕。

普雷克温克尔在向县委员会发表的预算演说中，将预算比作她的团队在过去十年中辛苦翻修并偿还抵押贷款的一栋房子，但现在一场风暴袭来了：交通诉讼就像一棵树砸穿了屋顶，而“残酷、极其残酷”的联邦资金削减则像地下室被淹。

“水从上方和下方同时涌入。无论问题是由什么引起的都无关紧要，修复它取决于你们，而这就是我们目前面临的情况，”她说道。“当风暴袭来时，只要有可能，你不会去办理第二次抵押贷款。你会削减开支，做出艰难的选择，想办法支付所有费用。这正是我们在制定这份预算时采取的方法，在整个县政府范围内勒紧裤腰带，这样我们今年就不用向居民要求增加哪怕一美元的支出。”

这句关于不增税的表态为普雷克温克尔赢得了委员们在选举年给予的喝彩。她以及县委员会的 17 个席位都将在 11 月的选票上出现。普雷克温克尔将面对自由意志主义者迈克尔·墨菲的挑战。

尽管很少有人面临严重的挑战，但大多数委员对以下前景感到乐观：既不需要被要求投票支持一项可能激怒那些已经面对汽油和杂货价格上涨的选民的增税方案，也不需要裁减县政府员工，因为那样可能会冒疏远公共部门工会的风险。

与此同时，由于预见到联邦政府将大幅削减医疗补助（Medicaid）资金，该县的医疗系统启动了第四年的预算削减。库克县卫生局请求县政府额外拨款 4000万美元，以弥补寻求医疗服务但支付能力较低的无保险和保险不足患者人数增加带来的缺口。

财政监督机构和信用评级机构通常不看好一次性修复方案。但普雷克温克尔的首席财务官安吉拉·曼宁-哈迪蒙在周三的一次简报会上告诉记者，她对于动用各种储备账户和使用一次性收入感到“放心”，因为该县仍将留下“充足的”应急资金。

“储备金就是为了应对这种情况而建立的，我相信该组织强大的规划历史，这就是储备金通常的设计目的：应对你最困难的财政年度，”曼宁-哈迪蒙说道。

普雷克温克尔提出的完整预算方案为 96.9 亿美元 billion，比今年减少了约 4%。根据她的计划，县政府的总人数将减少 25 个“全职等值员工”，降至约 23,800, 人。该提案在接下来的几周内仍必须通过县委员会的重重考验，并面对来自独立选举官员要求增加资金的恳求。

库克县的预算通常分为一般基金和卫生基金。一般基金涵盖了从普雷克温克尔办公室到法院和房产税系统的所有项目，而卫生基金则涵盖了该县的安全网诊所、医院以及其医疗补助计划 CountyCare。

一般基金中 2.21亿美元 的修复资金包括支出 $8800 万 的利息收入，这笔利息来自联邦政府疫情期间通过《美国救援计划法案》拨给该县的 10 亿美元 billion 资金。普雷克温克尔政府在第一年收集公众对其计划的反馈时几乎没有花掉这笔钱，此后的支出速度也相对缓慢，使得这笔钱在银行存放期间积累了利息。

她还建议从一项特别储备基金中部分提取 $61.200 万，该基金旨在确保在今年联邦支出截止日期后，由 ARPA 资助的项目能够继续运行。预算官员表示，仍将剩下约 4500万美元 用于支付 2028 年及之后的项目费用。

另有 $1800 万 将从“养老金稳定”储备金中取出，用于帮助支付明年向县退休人员基金的缴款。此外， 5400万美元 将从用于偿还长期债务的储备基金中转移。预算总监金子·石田·马塞尔怀特表示，该县还对工资单、加班费进行了其他小规模削减，并推迟了一些技术项目和“非强制性”计划。

今年早些时候，该县的预算遭受了重大打击，当时一名库克县巡回法院法官认定，普雷克温克尔政府不当地将数亿美元的交通税收用于他们认为是在执行“道路规则”的办公室。多年来，该县将来自汽油、停车场、车库和购车税的税收用于支付警长、州检察官、公设辩护人和巡回法院书记员办公室的开支。

伊利诺伊州道路与交通建设协会根据州宪法的“锁箱”（lockbox）修正案成功主张，该县只能将这笔资金用于基础设施或交通项目。县委员会成员同意从储备金中提取资金，以弥补今年因法律败诉而导致的资金转移。

普雷克温克尔的团队正在对法官的裁决提出上诉，与此同时，普雷克温克尔的特别法律顾问劳拉·莱科维奇-费利乔内（Laura Lechowicz Felicione）周三表示，该团队正拨出约 2.5亿美元 的交通收入，希望在“诉讼解决之前”再次将其用于公共安全办公室。“如果我们未能成功，那么我们将不得不考虑今后如何使用这笔资金。”

代表交通协会的律师约翰·菲茨杰拉德（John Fitzgerald）在电子邮件声明中表示，该判决是“县政府未能遵守选民以压倒性多数通过的宪法修正案的结果”，指的是选民在 2016 年通过的锁箱修正案。“县政府曾多次就其违宪做法收到警告。它早该预见到其行为的后果。”

尽管资金被冻结，普雷克温克尔仍提议在公共安全办公室的支出上比今年增加 1.5亿美元。

在联邦层面，库克县的社会安全网诊所和医院系统（占该县总预算的 47 亿美元 billion）正面临削减资金的“完美风暴”，并请求县政府额外出资 4000万美元 以帮助实现收支平衡。

针对部分通过《平价医疗法案》市场获得保险的人员削减联邦税收抵免；难民、寻求庇护者和人口贩卖受害者的医疗补助（Medicaid）覆盖结束；以及新的医疗补助工作要求，预计将导致患者收入损失 $13800 万，并增加 1亿美元 的额外慈善护理成本。

库克县卫生局（Cook County Health）表示，已减少使用外部机构人员，冻结了职位空缺并削减了外部合同。其总人数维持在 7,761 人不变。

县财务委员会副主席兼库克县卫生局董事会成员比尔·劳里（Bill Lowry）表示，成本削减措施令他感到欣慰，但他说，展望未来，“可能会有黑暗的日子”，“这就是为什么我非常期待看到中期选举的结果”。

劳里和其他 CCH 董事会成员希望，如果民主党在 11 月的选举中险胜共和党，唐纳德·特朗普总统的部分医疗补助削减措施能够得到扭转。普雷克温克尔警告说，如果没有这种情况，那些长期被避免的加税措施可能会到来。

她说：“如果联邦医疗覆盖范围的变更维持现状，维持我们的安全网的成本将继续上升。这意味着我们不能假装今年的方法能永远足够。”

“在未来的几年里，我们需要考虑增加收入，以维护居民赖以生存的医疗安全网、公共安全和其他基本服务。我认为居民现在就应该听到我们的告知，而不是在风暴袭来之后。”

抗议

周四，在由芝加哥社会主义替代方案 (Chicago Socialist Alternative) 在伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校校园组织的集会上，学生们一起高喊口号，此次集会是针对纽约康奈尔大学性暴力案件而发起的“全国行动日”的一部分。

在他们之中，男学生也出现在四边形广场 (the Quad) 的抗议人群中。伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校 (UIC) 的四年级机械工程专业学生雅各布·贝伦西翁 (Jacob Belencion) 表示，现在是更多男性站出来表示支持的重要时刻。

“我们需要鼓励其他男性出现在这些场合，并谴责任何厌女行为，”贝伦西翁说。

在近 300 英里之外，南伊利诺伊大学爱德华兹维尔分校 (Southern Illinois University Edwardsville) 的学生们也在反对性暴力。在网上看到关于全国行动日的信息后，学习哲学和经济学的三年级学生伊莎贝尔·蒙塔诺 (Isabel Montano) 决定在 SIUE 采取行动。

人很容易感到被悲伤和愤怒所淹没，但蒙塔诺表示，她认为将这些情感转化为“一个尝试做些好事并把人们聚集在一起，以带来积极变革的出口”会很有意义。

她希望通过讨论并揭露性暴力等问题能够帮助带来改变。

“即使我只是一个人拿着标语站在那里，我认为一个声音也能产生影响，”蒙塔诺说。“……这不仅仅是为了康奈尔大学的（简·多伊）。你现在看到许多女性站出来讲述她们的经历。这关乎集体，关乎人们如何产生共鸣。”

发声的灵感不仅限于大学校园。

周四下午，数百名学生从林肯公园高中的课堂中走出。在队伍最前面，四名学生举起一块巨大的横幅，上面用粉色大写字母写着“#EndSexualViolence”（#终止性暴力）。

长长的学生队伍从学校蜿蜒向林肯大道延伸，高喊着：“不就是不，性暴力必须消失”，以及更简单的“不就是不”和“我的声音，我的选择”。示威者最终聚集在林肯公园动物园行政办公室的台阶上，学生们轮流使用扩音器。“你不需要成为受害者才能发声，才能采取行动，”一名学生大喊道，人群随即爆发出一阵欢呼。

这并不是林肯公园高中 (LPHS) 三年级学生兼离校抗议策划者伊莎贝拉·斯卡法伊 (Isabella Scaffai) 第一次参加抗议。去年，她曾走出校园集会反对美国移民和海关执法局在市内的活动，这为她与 LPHS 女性赋权俱乐部共同策划周四的示威活动奠定了基础。

斯卡法伊在周四的离校抗议前告诉《论坛报》，关于康奈尔大学涉嫌发生该事件的消息已在 LPHS 传开，促使学生们对此发声。

斯卡法伊说，当你对上大学所带来的独立、成长和自由感到兴奋，却突然意识到依然存在被虐待的威胁时，这令人心灰意冷。

“我认为，尤其是女孩们，真的非常希望能够感受到自由和安全，而（女性）容易遭受此类侵害、受到这种暴力的影响，这让她们感到非常愤怒，”斯卡法伊说道。她补充说，无论是朋友、母亲还是姐妹，她认为几乎每个人都认识某个在某种程度上遭受过性侵的人。“我知道当我参加走离抗议时，这不仅仅是为了我自己和我的未来，也是为了我的朋友们，以及抚养我长大的女性们，”她说。

林肯公园高中（LPHS）17 岁的年级学生克洛伊·伍德尔（Chloe Woodall）通过制作海报并在社交媒体上宣传，帮助提高了人们对此次集会的关注度。

她告诉《芝加哥论坛报》，这次活动在呼应关于康奈尔大学案件的全国性讨论之余，也帮助学生们学习了什么是“同意”。“我希望如果人们之前对‘同意’以及性侵到底意味着什么不够清晰，那么这次活动或许能让他们对此有更明确的理解，”她说。

芝加哥其他校园也通过现有资源提供支持，包括西北大学的学生倡导与健康中心，以及伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校（UIC）的女性领导力与资源中心和校园倡导网络。非营利组织 Resilience 的首席项目官兼临时主任萨拉·莱登（Sarah Layden）表示，对于因这些新闻而陷入痛苦的性暴力幸存者来说，利用相关资源以及像 24 小时芝加哥强奸危机热线（Chicago Rape Crisis Hotline）这样的渠道会很有帮助。

莱登表示，虽然康奈尔大学的案件引起了极大的关注和公众支持，但幸存者的反应可能各不相同。尽管如此，所有年龄段的人都应继续获得教育和用于疗愈的安全空间。

“……我认为与其他幸存者建立社区并勇敢发声，绝对可以是令人振奋且真正能让人们获得疗愈的。但与此同时，如果有人还没准备好这样做，这也是可以接受的，”莱登说。“这对于每位幸存者来说可能并非最安全或最正确的选择。仅仅因为有人没有立即举报，或者在性侵发生后经历了典型的创伤反应，并不意味着他们的经历是无效的。”

《论坛报》编辑委员会继续公布其对伊利诺伊州参议院竞争选区的支持名单。

第24选区

在包含库克县和杜佩奇县西郊部分的该选区中，共和党现任议员、来自巴特莱特的塞斯·刘易斯（Seth Lewis）将面对民主党候选人、30岁的社区组织者本·麦克亚当斯（Ben McAdams）。刘易斯在2022年以微弱优势击败民主党人劳伦·诺瓦克（Lauren Nowak）后赢得选举。

58, 岁的刘易斯是参议院共和党的主要预算制定者之一，也是减轻伊利诺伊州税收负担和遏制开支的重要且深思熟虑的倡导者。

他也采取了一些令其党内许多人不满的立场，尤其是他在2025年底对交通救援方案的投票，该方案为伊利诺伊州创纪录的通行费上涨铺平了道路。刘易斯是唯一支持该立法的斯普林菲尔德共和党人，他表示“公共交通对于我们地区的持续成功至关重要”，并强调该措施早期的增收方案具有更大的破坏性。他告诉我们：“当某件事对我的选区有利时，我会投票支持，即使这意味着与我自己的政党决裂。”更多的斯普林菲尔德民主党人也应该这样做。

麦克亚当斯是一个毫不掩饰的进步主义者。例如，他热烈支持对超过 100万美元 的收入征收 3% 的附加税，并同情要求增加更多州政府收入以救助芝加哥公立学校的呼吁。他告诉我们：“教师不是问题，管理层不是问题，孩子和家庭也不是问题。”我们认为，即使是许多芝加哥人可能也不会同意他关于芝加哥公立学校管理层和教师的看法，至少从他们激进的工会所反映的情况来看是如此。

刘易斯正是民主党人和独立人士应该支持的那种共和党温和派。斯普林菲尔德需要更多像刘易斯这样的共和党人，以制衡斯普林菲尔德民主党超级多数派最糟糕的冲动。我们支持塞斯·刘易斯。

第26选区

这个北郊选区从帕拉丁（Palatine）和巴灵顿（Barrington）向北延伸至莱克县（Lake County）的各市镇，包括莱克苏里（Lake Zurich）、霍桑伍兹（Hawthorn Woods）和沃康达（Wauconda）。共和党人达比·希尔斯（Darby Hills），50岁，在共和党同僚丹·麦康基（Dan McConchie）辞职创办一家倡导改善残疾人权益的国家非营利组织后，于2025年初被任命接任该席位。希尔斯曾任巴灵顿希尔斯村信托员，目前正竞选正式获得该席位，她的对手是民主党人纳比拉·赛义德（Nabeela Syed），27岁，一名来自帕拉丁的伊利诺伊州众议员，目前处于第二个任期。

这无疑将是一场势均力敌的竞争；麦康基在2022年击败民主党人玛丽亚·彼得森（Maria Peterson）时，票差不足400票。

赛义德是州议会最年轻的成员之一，我们在2024年支持她竞选众议员。她的政策观点倾向于进步主义，但在财政方面采取了一些保守立场；例如，她投票反对2025财年预算，因为她认为该预算过分依赖增税，同时未能为当时即将到来的交通资金缺口拨出任何款项。

赛义德告诉我们，她反对2025年底通过的交通救援立法，因为其中包含一项“累退性”的销售税增长。但事实上她并未反对，至少在众议院议事期间没有。正如希尔斯向我们指出的那样，赛义德并未对该方案进行投票。对于一件对其选民如此重要的事情，赛义德不能两头讨好。如果那是她的立场，她应该投反对票。

希尔斯在参议院对该方案投了反对票，其理由十分公正，即交通机构的改革应当在实施旨在救济该系统的巨额过路费上涨和销售税增长之前完成。

希尔斯曾不止一次投票反对其党内领导层，包括今年一项允许州政府首次监管汽车保险费率的措施（该措施已签署成为法律）。伊利诺伊州参议院最不需要的就是一个规模更大的民主党超级多数，而希尔斯已经证明了自己是那种愿意与对方阵营合作的共和党人。我们支持达比·希尔斯。

克雷格·威尔考克斯（Craig Wilcox）参议员是一名共和党人，正在竞选连任，以代表伊利诺伊州参议院第32选区。 克雷格·威尔考克斯

第27选区

由于民主党人马克·沃克（Mark Walker）选择不再竞选连任，这个西北郊区选区的参议院席位现已空缺。他已背书支持现年 41 岁的阿灵顿高地村信托员卡里娜·圣玛丽亚（Carina Santa Maria）接替他的位置；她在民主党初选中没有对手。她的竞争对手是共和党人戴维·马蒂斯（David Mathis），一名曾在海军陆战队和国民警卫队服役的退役军人，同样居住在阿灵顿高地。

丹妮尔·彭曼（Danielle Penman）正在参加伊利诺伊州参议院第 33 选区的共和党初选。 丹妮尔·彭曼

在某些问题上，圣玛丽亚的立场过于偏左。她呼吁“修复”伊利诺伊州 Tier 2 养老金，其含义是增加福利。她声称这些养老金导致了警察、消防和教师职位的招聘与留任问题。我们没有看到相关证据；伊利诺伊州最不应该做的事情就是进一步扩大养老金缺口。

尽管如此，我们赞赏她对待《SAFE-T 法案》的方式。她呼吁在电子监控期间违反居家禁闭限制的被告方面，向公众提供更高的透明度。她还表示，法官需要更多工具来应对此类违规行为。她告诉我们：“我们可以在保护正当程序的同时，明确一点：当证据表明某人对他人或社区构成严重威胁时，我们的法律需要赋予法官有效的工具来保护公众。”

马蒂斯将自己描述为温和派。然而，他呼吁对堕胎实施更多限制，这在郊区选区可能不会受欢迎。那些厌倦了民主党在斯普林菲尔德主导地位的人可能会考虑这位局外人，但我们认为圣玛丽亚更有可能代表该选区的最佳利益。卡里娜·圣玛丽亚获得背书。

第29选区

来自迪尔菲尔德的民主党人朱莉·莫里森（Julie Morrison）自 2023. 年起代表这个北郊选区，该选区范围从格伦维尤和威尔米特的局部地区向北延伸至湖林和湖布拉夫。她在 2022 年竞选时没有对手，但今年面临挑战者，即共和党人、保险代理人凯特·麦格拉思（Kate McGrath）。

51, 岁的麦格拉思告诉我们，她是人工智能的支持者，称州政府“应该将 AI 视为创新、经济增长和政府改善的机遇，而不是某种令人恐惧的东西”。她还建议利用 AI 使政府“规模更小、效率更高”。利用 AI 为纳税人服务可能确实有可行之法，但前提不能是伊利诺伊州居民在需要州政府提供答案时，必须与更多的聊天机器人打交道。

除此之外，我们赞赏麦格拉思专注于控制伊利诺伊州预算并激励经济快速增长。

69, 岁的莫里森一直是参议院在合理枪支限制问题上的领导者，我们支持这一事业。我们在 2018. 年曾背书支持她。她告诉我们，她不同意芝加哥教师工会要求州政府向公立学校追加数十亿美元资金的要求。她说：“我们必须对未来的财务压力保持现实。”

作为一名务实的政治家，朱莉·莫里森获得背书。

第32选区

来自麦克亨利（McHenry）的共和党人克雷格·威尔考克斯（Craig Wilcox），58岁，正在竞选这个涵盖莱克县（Lake）和麦克亨利县部分地区的西北郊区选区的第三个完整任期。在他过去的两次竞选中，每次都面临着大选的挑战。这一次也不例外。试图将威尔考克斯拉下马的是民主党人凯伦·巴塔利亚（Karen Battalgia），64岁，一名注册护士。

威尔考克斯是德克萨斯州人，在美军空军服役23年后进入公共生活，在伊拉克服役期间曾两次获得铜星勋章。由于我们对其在2020年选举结果立场上的担忧，他在2022年未能获得我们的认可。除此之外，我们很认可威尔考克斯的大部分议程，尤其是他专注于养老金和伦理改革。

虽然唐纳德·特朗普继续喋喋不休地谈论2020年，但我们大多数人已经释怀。威尔考克斯继续推动养老金改革，他告诉我们，他认为已获得的福利不应减少，但州政府应将未来员工的制度过渡到类似401(k)的系统。这值得考虑，但首先必须进行对话。而那些受制于公共部门工会的民主党人则没有表现出任何讨论的开放迹象。

巴塔利亚则呈现出鲜明的对比，她告诉我们，她主张增强2011年或之后入职员工的第二级（Tier 2）福利。她还支持由众议院议长埃马纽埃尔·“克里斯”·韦尔奇（Emanuel “Chris” Welch）支持的3%所得税附加费。

民主党已经主导了斯普林菲尔德，给予他们更多权力将使这类对纳税人不友好的政策更有可能实施。如果没有非常充分的理由，我们不需要另一个参议院席位落入他们手中。而这里的情况并非如此。我们认可克雷格·威尔考克斯。

第33选区

伊利诺伊州民主党在这个西郊区选区看到了机会，该选区从圣查尔斯（St. Charles）经过埃尔金（Elgin）延伸至水晶湖（Crystal Lake）。受人尊敬的共和党参议员唐·德威特（Don DeWitte）将在本任期结束时退休。

民主党候选人是阿尔贡金（Algonquin）居民米歇尔·克拉克（Michele Clark），54岁，当地一家食品银行的发展总监。她的对手是共和党人丹妮尔·彭曼（Danielle Penman），一名来自圣查尔斯的49岁产科护士，她在与杰西卡·布鲁格曼斯（Jessica Breugelmans）激烈的初选竞争中获胜。

我们在初选中认可了布鲁格曼斯，但认为彭曼也是一个不错的选择。共和党拥有一位坚实的候选人来扛起大旗，以确保该席位留在共和党阵营中。

彭曼专注于房产税减免，并提出了切实可行的建议，例如增加房主免税额，并将其与通货膨胀挂钩，以免其价值随时间推移而缩水。

我们也同意她的观点，即在短期内电力可靠性仍存在疑问的情况下，伊利诺伊州必须刹住过早关闭化石燃料发电厂的脚步——而这正是斯普林菲尔德民主党人拒绝采取的步骤。

克拉克告诉我们，她是主张让“最富有的公司和高收入者支付其公平份额”的倡导者。在9.5%的税率下，伊利诺伊州企业的所得税率在全国处于最高水平之列。在我们看来，这似乎已经是“公平份额”了。

投票将此席位转交给民主党，就是投票支持更高的税收和支出。我们认可丹妮尔·彭曼。

第35选区

共和党参议员戴夫·西弗森（Dave Syverson）自1993年起一直代表这个远西北郊区，包括罗克福德（Rockford）的部分地区以及东部的哈佛（Harvard）、马伦戈（Marengo）和亨特利（Huntley）等地区。这意味着他是少数几位能自称在巴拉克·奥巴马（Barack Obama）担任该机构成员期间与其共事过的州参议员之一。2016年，这位总统在斯普林菲尔德的州议会发表讲话，并点名表扬了西弗森及其他人。奥巴马当时说：“我们没有互相称对方为试图摧毁美国的白痴或法西斯分子。”“因为那样的话，我们就得解释为什么我们会和某个试图摧毁美国的白痴或法西斯分子一起打扑克或喝酒。”

噢，真希望那些日子能回来！

68岁的西弗森自2010年以来就没遇到过大选挑战者，但这次他遇到了替代教师莎拉·默滕斯（Sarah Mertens）。这位民主党人表示她在罗马维尔（Romeoville）长大，并于2011年毕业于伊利诺伊大学。

她的竞选纲领看起来既进步又奇怪地机械化。例如：“将税收负担从劳动家庭转移到亿万富翁的国际公司身上。”

然而，西弗森是一位资深的立法者，详细了解州政府的运作方式。他向我们提供了一系列绝佳的建议。其一：解决电子监控问题，取消法律中规定佩戴电子脚镣者每周两天自动获得且无需追踪的自由，将违规行为作为重新举行拘留听证会的理由。其二：禁止职业生涯末期的薪资激增，以防止官僚机构中的高层获得极其优厚的养老金。

至于大幅增加过路费的交通救援法案，他说他对此表示反对，尽管他支持过以往的加税举措（如提高汽油税）。这一点引起了我们的共鸣：“小幅提高票价虽然不能填补全部缺口，但至少能告诉下州（downstate）的纳税人，‘我们尽了我们的职责’。相反，他们直接来了一个巨大的‘挑衅’。”没错。

当我们需要务实的共和党人时，西弗森在斯普林菲尔德数十年的经验是无价的。默滕斯的资历非常浅薄。我们支持戴夫·西弗森。

芝加哥教育委员会主席之争关乎理念——以及人品

9月29日，芝加哥教育委员会主席候选人杰西卡·比格斯（Jessica Biggs）、希拉里奥·多明格斯（Hilario Dominguez）和维克多·亨德森（Victor Henderson）参加在哥白尼中心举行的一场论坛。CHRIS SWEDA / CHICAGO TRIBUNE

大卫·格赖辛（David Greising）

在选民考虑首次芝加哥教育委员会主席选举的选择时，他们需要权衡一套与人品和能力相关的、尤为显著的问题。

无论谁当选，都需要具备这两种品质的充足分量，包括坚韧的意志，才能有效地领导一个正面临重大问题的学校系统。芝加哥公立学校（CPS）的信用评级为“垃圾级”，今年面临 7.32 亿美元的预算缺口——除此之外，还背负着 90 亿美元的债务，且养老金严重不足。自 2010 年以来，该系统失去了近 80,000 名学生，而在此期间人员编制却大幅增加，且学生之间存在基于种族的成绩差距。此外，本学年结束后，学校关闭的暂停令也将到期。

要解决该学区的问题，需要精明的战略思维，以及领导力所需的人品支撑。这就是为什么随着选举日的临近，每位委员会主席候选人都面临严重的人品质疑，这一点令人深感担忧。

毕竟，人品是领导力的一个重要因素。

CPS监察长正在调查针对候选人希拉里奥·多明格斯的性骚扰指控，该指控与 2017 年发生的事件有关。他的指控者当时是一名 17 岁的项目参与者，称多明格斯当时作为“复活项目”（The Resurrection Project）的一名 24 岁工作人员，对她采取了不恰当的行为。据《论坛报》报道，这些指控在今年早些时候被判定为“未证实”，但最近基于新信息，该案件被重新启动。

候选人杰西卡·比格斯正在回答关于她最终是如何在第三次尝试后才从 CPS 的“禁止雇佣”名单中除名的相关问题——而就在几周前，比格斯作为一名当选的学校委员会成员，刚刚完成了委员会对新学区监督员的搜寻工作。比格斯在 2018 年被列入该名单，此前她因被指操纵出勤报告以试图阻止 CPS 关闭伯克小学（Burke Elementary School）而被解雇。

候选人维克多·亨德森当时的妻子在离婚申请中指控他身体虐待两人的儿子。

多明格斯否认有任何不当行为。比格斯表示她是因为“轻微的官僚问题”而被解雇的。亨德森在法庭文件中同意不对其儿子实施体罚。

许多选民无论出现什么样的意外人品问题，都会坚持支持自己的候选人。

市长布兰登·约翰逊（Brandon Johnson）就是其中之一。即便在本周的消息披露后，他对多明格斯的支持依然坚定。在回答记者提问时，约翰逊提到了多明格斯反对关闭学校等议题。约翰逊说：“让我们把这两个”话题分开。

选民们完全不需要这样看待。相反，他们可以将两者结合起来：既考虑候选人的理念，也考虑他们是否具备将这些理念付诸实践的人品和领导能力。

多明格斯和约翰逊一样，曾是芝加哥教师工会的领导者，他认为州政府欠 CPS 钱——这是由于全州基于证据的资金计划长期资金不足造成的。且不论约翰逊已经尝试过这一论点但未获成功。多明格斯指出，目前的 CPS 预算要求 1.5 亿美元的新州政府资金，并表示他会想办法拿到这笔钱，即便在约翰逊失败的地方。

比格斯主张不应依赖州政府尚未承诺的资金。她表示，她将召集州立法机构、学校董事会、市政府以及工会的领导人，共同制定一项为期五年的恢复计划。她还表示，她将寻求让 CPS 养老金获得的州政府资金与其他所有市政府获得的资金水平相当。

至于她将如何说服立法机构这样做，比格斯尚未详细说明。

亨德森表示，他的会计背景使他擅长处理数字，而律师的工作经历使他成为一名出色的谈判者。他能发现他人看不到的节省空间，然后凭借其精湛的谈判风格将其落实。

他们提供的是很多希望，但缺乏足够的具体计划。在现在到选举日之间，如果三位候选人能提供更多实质性的细节，将是对选民的负责，并最终有助于当选主席领导 CPS 的能力。

随着 11 月 3 日的临近，寻求试金石的选民可能会考虑未来学校关闭的问题。

回溯到 2013 年，时任市长拉姆·埃马纽埃在处理 50 所学校的关闭问题时，公众讨论极少且结果极不公平，以至于无论关闭学校在财政上看起来多么必要，这一想法在政治上都具有极强的破坏性。但随着目前的关闭禁令将于明年到期，这个问题将在新任董事会主席就职之际再次凸显。

比格斯表示，决定需要来自社区而非市中心，但她没有提出太多具体细节，且最终未表明坚定立场。亨德森则表示，他将把关闭学校作为“极端的最后手段”。

多明格斯通过引用学术研究来证明其反对关闭学校的立场，其中一项研究称，由于相关的暴力事件增加，关闭学校实际上反而增加了成本。他表示，将 CPS 学校建筑重新打造为社区中心（部分房间用于课堂，其他房间用于杂货店或健康诊所等社区设施）的尝试需要大幅扩展。

这三位候选人为选民呈现了截然不同的对比。比格斯已经管理过芝加哥学校，并作为董事会成员参与过系统治理。多明格斯在 CPS 系统中长大，拥有聪明的想法，但缺乏这份工作所需的行政领导经验。亨德森缺乏教育背景，这意味着他将面临陡峭的学习曲线，同时也引发了人们对其为何在职业生涯如此之晚才决定投身于教育城市儿童的疑问。

这次选举绝对关乎人格特质，同时也关乎理念。选民如何评估这两者的结合，将决定谁将领导芝加哥学校董事会面对 CPS 非常艰难的未来。

培养芝加哥医生的医院无法在华盛顿的医疗补助削减中生存

2025年8月14日，UI Health外科主任恩里科·贝内代蒂（Enrico Benedetti）医生在芝加哥的 UI Health 与一名患者交谈。HOSS FATEMI / UI HEALTH

作者：阿尔伯特·D·萨姆二世（Albert D. Sam II） 特约撰稿

在最近的一个周四晚上，我坐在芝加哥大学俱乐部（University Club of Chicago）的一个宴会厅里，参加由伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校（UIC）外科、内科和急诊医学系主办的第20届年度“弥合差距”（Bridging the Gap）会议。当晚的主题是代表性不足的少数群体中出现的新兴健康问题。让我一直难以忘怀的故事来自伊利诺伊大学医学院临时执行院长恩里科·贝内代蒂医生。

1989年，贝内代蒂从意大利佛罗伦萨来到这里，在伊利诺伊大学医院开始他的实习。在职业生涯早期，他目睹一名孕妇在我们的急诊室等待了16个小时才获得常规产前护理。她无处可去。他将整个职业生涯致力于确保不再有人这样等待。

37年后，华盛顿正朝着让这种等待回归的方向前进。

被称为 H.R. 1 的联邦预算法案预计将在未来10年内在全国范围内削减 $1 万亿美元的医疗补助（Medicaid）资金，其中包括削减伊利诺伊州 $26 亿的医疗补助资金。罗伯特·伍德·约翰逊基金会（Robert Wood Johnson Foundation）估计，大约 400,000 名伊利诺伊州居民可能会失去保障。该州已经向约 700,000 名可能受到新工作要求影响的居民发送了信函。库克县卫生局（Cook County Health）估计，多达 330,000 名伊利诺伊州居民可能会失去医疗保障，其中一半居住在库克县。从1月开始，部分参保者必须证明每月至少有 80 小时的工作、志愿服务或就学时间，并且必须每 6 个月更新一次保障，而不是每 12 个月一次。

移民家庭首先受到冲击。H.R. 1 缩小了某些非公民获得医疗补助的资格，部分人已于 10月 1. 失去保障。这包括合法居住在这里的人员。这些损失是在伊利诺伊州决定关闭其移民成人健康计划之后进一步增加的。该计划覆盖 42 至 64, 岁的人群，其保障截止日期为 2025年6月30日。

失去保障的人大多数是美国公民，包括在职成年人、护理人员和处于失业过渡期的人。失去保险并不能阻止人们生病，这意味着他们在病情更难治疗时才会寻求护理。

作为一名血管外科医生，我看到了这种延迟带来的后果。一个本可以在诊所处理的伤口变成了截肢，而截肢则发生在一家安全网医院（safety-net hospital）的手术室里。

这就是数学变得危险的地方。在全州范围内，联邦医疗保险（Medicare）和医疗补助（Medicaid）占医院收入的 30% 到 40%，但在安全网医院和关键准入医院（critical-access hospitals）中，这一比例超过一半。州长预算办公室警告称，该法律对医疗服务提供者税收的新上限将在 2031. 财年之前总共减少 $4.5 亿的医疗补助资金。一旦税率上限完全实施，到 2033. 年，年度损失将达到 $6.1 亿。伊利诺伊州健康与医院协会（Illinois Health and Hospital Association）警告说，伊利诺伊州大约一半的医院可能会被迫裁员、削减服务或彻底关闭。我们已经看到了关闭后的样子：芝加哥的魏斯纪念医院（Weiss Memorial Hospital）因财务困难于 2025 年 8 月关闭。库克县卫生局已经预计 2027 年的慈善医疗支出将增加 $1 亿。

UI Health 是芝加哥唯一的公共学术医疗中心。它包括一家拥有 451 张床位的三级医院和由 11 家联邦合格健康中心组成的 Mile Square 网络。我们治疗每一位走进大门的人，而这正是这些削减威胁到我们的原因。

这种威胁不仅限于患者护理，因为伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校（UIC）也是伊利诺伊州培训医疗人才的基地。在伊利诺伊州执业的医生中，超过 1 / 3 在该医学院接受过培训，1 / 5 在此获得了医学学位。伊利诺伊州近一半的黑人和拉丁裔医疗专业人员（在芝加哥这一比例高达 $70%）是 UIC 健康科学学院的校友。该学院培养的非裔美国学生人数超过了美国除霍华德大学和梅哈里医学院以外的所有医学院。

住院医师通过护理患者来学习医学，而教学医院的临床收入则为这种培训提供资金。如果一个安全网学术中心必须关闭诊所、冻结招聘或削减服务，那么接受培训的医生和护士数量将会减少。芝加哥未来的医生，包括那些最有可能在最需要他们的社区执业的医生，将失去他们的学习场所。

经济损失将远远超出医院范围。UIC 在 2023 年为伊利诺伊州经济贡献了 106 亿美元 billion，并支撑了近 97,000 个就业岗位，相当于该州每 85 个岗位中的 1 个。仅 UI Health 的支出就为该州创造了 16 亿美元 billion 的额外收入。如果 UIC 失去稳定性，其影响将波及伊利诺伊医疗区、近西区以及所有依赖那里工作人员薪水的企业。而且，未补偿的护理费用并不会消失，最终将由纳税人和拥有私人保险的家庭承担。

现在仍有时间采取行动。国会可以在工作要求和支付上限全面生效前将其推迟。斯普林菲尔德可以将保护安全网医院作为预算优先事项。芝加哥市民可以告诉他们的代表，一家服务于每一位走进门的人的医院是这座城市基础设施的一部分，就像道路、桥梁和电线一样。

贝内代蒂（Benedetti）花费了 37 年时间，确保没有女性在我们的医院里为了产前护理而等待 16 小时。我们不应让华盛顿毁掉这些成果。

你好，芝加哥马拉松跑者们。你们在奔向何方？

作者：凯拉·马尔卡诺 (Kyra Marcano) 特约撰稿

人们在 2024 年 10 月 13 日的芝加哥马拉松赛期间，为跑过拉萨尔街大桥的选手们欢呼。BRIAN CASSELLA / CHICAGO TRIBUNE

最近，在参加侄女的婴儿洗礼派对时，我与叔伯们相对而坐，我即将参加的马拉松赛成了热门话题。

他们问：那么，你是在逃避什么而奔跑吗？

没有。不是逃避，而是穿行。

在像芝加哥这样的大城市长大，带来了世界级的博物馆、丰富的文化和广阔的绿地等诸多机遇。但对于包括我在内的许多年轻人来说，与暴力的近距离接触以及城市生活，培养了一种对个人安全的持续高度警觉。它像手机后台运行的应用程序一样，悄无声息地消耗着能量，成为了一个风向标。

在一个充满不确定性的世界里，跑步是实实在在的。在寻找自己的节奏中，有结构、有公式，且具有可预测性。跑步也是一面镜子，教会人们自律、洞察力和自我信任的重要性。它帮助我应对由创伤引起的广泛性抑郁和焦虑。由于家族有药物滥用和严重精神疾病史，我曾经的咬指甲、逃避任务和失眠，都是无声的呼救。

跑步成了帮助锚定其他一切的主线。

二十五年前，我系好跑鞋参加了我的首场 5 公里赛，从此再未回头。现在，当我看到跑者们为周日的美国银行芝加哥马拉松赛进行训练时，我想起了那个时刻。你可以看到他们在街道上、湖滨沿线，以及在为迎接大日子而进行长距离跑收尾时，在人行道上疾驰而过。

这确实是一个大日子。1977 年的首届芝加哥马拉松赛吸引了 4,200 名跑者成功冲线。如今，这场马拉松吸引了超过 56,000 名跑者，并为芝加哥经济注入了约 7.56亿美元。我们这些马拉松跑者疯了吗？为什么这种吸引力在不断增长？

在我 20 岁出头时，作为波塔格公园芝加哥学院的一名四年级实习教师，我全身心地投入到学生身上，却完全忽视了自己的身心健康。我现在负责管理的非营利组织“芝加哥跑”（Chicago Run）与我的学校合作，为学生开展跑步活动。孩子们没有每天的体育课。芝加哥跑的项目让我每天能带他们去跑道上跑步或行走，学习正确的跑步姿势，设定目标并呼吸新鲜空气。我开始用全新的眼光看待跑步。

跑步有一种其他运动无法提供的释放感。你的手臂必须跨越身体的中线，从而调动大脑的两侧。它需要专注。根据我在莱恩技术大学预科学校（Lane Tech College Prep）参加体育运动的经验，我知道自己在赛季期间状态更好。我不再咬指甲，能完成任务，睡眠也改善了。我注意到我的学生也经历了同样的变化。

这看起来可能违背直觉，但在我人生中最艰难的一些转型期——突然失去哥哥、一段复杂的关系——加入马拉松训练让我找到了重心。我是六个孩子中的一个。跑步加强了我与哥哥之间的纽带，让我能以稳定的陪伴而非愤怒去面对他的挣扎。

如今，我正在为纽约和伦敦的马拉松赛进行训练。

我逐渐意识到，跑步是一个恒久的教学工具。在铺就的道路上，你会学到在其他任何地方都学不到的关于自己的事情。你放下无形的负担，接受帮助与支持。你明白，只要向前迈进，每次都能到达终点。

在我的首场马拉松赛第 20 英里处，我听到了父亲的声音，紧接着他就跳到我身边。 “我从未如此自豪！”他大喊道。我哭了。我编发的分缝处被晒伤了。我的能量补给也不充分。但我的母亲带着花出现在那里，我的姐姐在赛后帮我拉伸。在那一刻，有些东西在心中豁然开朗。

这就是我在婴儿洗礼派对上试图向我叔叔们解释的事情。跑步并非万能药。它不能替代对创伤的治疗，也无法解决诸如系统性投资不足或心理健康服务匮乏等重大问题。它并没有“修复”我。

但它是一种前行的方式。

当我跑步时，我保持呼吸平稳。我的四肢在律动。我放松紧绷的下颌。我享受这份宁静。我不再过度思考。我只是我自己。

这就是我们跑步的原因。

跑者们，继续前行吧。

凯拉·马卡诺（Kyra Marcano）是芝加哥人，曾七次参加马拉松赛，现任 Chicago Run 的执行董事。这是一个总部位于芝加哥的非营利组织，旨在为芝加哥各社区的青少年提供免费的跑步项目，以支持其身心健康。

民意之声

并非所有共和党人都如此

史蒂夫·查普曼在10月7日的专栏文章《共和党人正在煽动关于美国穆斯林的毫无根据的恐惧》纯属胡说。

伊玛目塔里克·埃尔-阿明在塔夸清真寺主持周五礼拜。2024年12月6日，芝加哥黑人穆斯林历史之旅的参与者在卡卢梅特高地清真寺停留祈祷并共进午餐。E. JASON WAMBSGANS / TRIBUNE

我是一名温和的共和党人。多年来，在当地清真寺和伊斯兰中心的斋月开斋饭、节日和集会上，我一直受到欢迎，而我也以支持和包容回报这种欢迎。其中一家穆斯林中心每年赞助我们社区的5公里跑步赛。这些是真实的社交关系，是在不分政党的情况下，在信众与社区之间随着时间推移建立起来的。查普曼难道想让他的读者相信这些关系并不存在吗？

查普曼指出了两名误入歧途的候选人（一名在佛罗里达州，一名在田纳西州），他们发表了丑陋的反穆斯林言论。随后他便跳跃到这样一个笼统的结论：“在今年的竞选中，伊斯兰恐惧症并非罕见现象。它已成为共和党品牌的核心部分。”

胡说。这种情况很罕见，而且是错误的，每次发生时都应该被指责。但两名候选人不代表一个政党。用这些候选人的话给所有共和党人抹黑，恰恰就是那种“连带责任”的指控，而如果这种指控针对的是穆斯林或任何其他群体，我希望查普曼能正确地谴责它。

讽刺之处就在于：一篇谴责分裂的专栏文章反而播种了更多的分裂。也许这样能卖出更多报纸。 —— 加里·格拉索，共和党候选人，杜佩奇县主席

回忆尚未淡去

毫无疑问，美国穆斯林绝不应遭受歧视和仇恨。伊斯兰恐惧症与针对任何美国人群体的毫无根据的偏见和蔑视一样，都是不可接受的。

然而，我不认同史蒂夫·查普曼在文中写道，人们会期望基地组织和其他恐怖分子的袭击记忆到今天已经“消退”。根据民主防御基金会的报告，自1979年10月以来，伊斯兰极端分子已经谋杀了数千名美国人。

是的，只有极小比例的穆斯林相信导致如此多美国人死亡的伊斯兰极端主义，伊斯兰恐惧症应该被根除。尽管如此，期望美国人对恐怖分子谋杀美国公民的记忆到今天会

消退是不现实的。事实上，人们会认为这种记忆的淡去对大多数美国人来说是不可想象的。 —— 泰瑞·塔卡什，西泉镇

ICE 使用电击手套

我在芝加哥当了 33 年警察。我见证了美国国内一些最激烈的公民骚乱：1965 年的开放住房游行，1968 年马丁·路德·金牧师遇刺后的示威活动，以及同年 8 月民主党全国代表大会期间的示威活动。尽管当时情况极其糟糕——暴乱、抢劫、枪击和纵火；警察失职的指控；甚至有一位市长下令枪毙纵火者并击伤抢劫者——但我们这些执法人员（包括士兵在内）当时并没有配备能电击个人的电子设备。

1963, 阿拉巴马州加兹登的警察对民权抗议者使用了电击牲畜棒。人类被这些设备电击和折磨的景象令整个国家感到震惊。

现在传出的消息是，移民与海关执法局（ICE）花费 $16.700 万 购买了电击手套，用于对付抗拒逮捕、具有攻击性的人员以及示威者。我的问题是：我们难道没有从过去吸取教训吗？在一个宣扬并实践自由和示威权利的国家，执法人员真的需要这种毫无疑问会被视为酷刑工具的设备吗？牲畜棒和电击手套之间有什么区别？区别在于，前者已经消失，而后者即将取而代之。

不幸的是，人们会反抗，警察会受伤。加强训练和配备其他非致命设备，绝对比在人类身上使用电击手套要好得多。

经验和常识告诉我，使用电击手套这件事需要重新审视。

—— 鲍勃·安戈内（Bob Angone），退休芝加哥警察中尉，德克萨斯州奥斯汀

将“我们”变成“他们”

唐纳德·特朗普总统提到用核弹袭击洛杉矶或圣迭戈的言论，并非旨在煽动伊朗这样做。这更像是一句随口而出的闲话，是我们对他这种笨拙的自由联想所预料之中的。当评论员将其定性为特朗普向敌人发出叛国性的怂恿时，我的条件反射反应是：“他给我们提供的正当愤怒难道还不够多吗，以至于我们还需要去放大他那些可疑的言论？”

简而言之，我对特朗普这段极不符合总统身份的言论并不感到焦虑。但我也没有将其视为玩笑。玩笑应该是幽默的。而对于一名总统来说，言论不应该是没有语境或目的的胡言乱语。

对我而言，这段话只是对他已知特质的持续肯定。特朗普的想象力极其有限。几乎任何一个能在美国达到这一职业巅峰的人，都会对这个职位及其随之而来的巨大责任心怀敬畏。对大多数人来说，服务的人口越多越好。而特朗普认为只有他的支持者才属于他的管辖范围。他通过将大多数美国人从“我们”变成“他们”，从而将他们排除在外。

对于特朗普来说，洛杉矶和圣迭戈可能就等同于伊朗。这就是持续存在的危险，无需任何评论员再去渲染。

—— 亚特·柯林斯（Art Collins），奥罗拉

唐纳德·特朗普唯一的真相

这是一个真正害怕被遗忘的人。唐纳德·特朗普总统用谎言喂养公众，而许多人对此深信不疑。他正用一种虚假的希望来改变世界和华盛顿特区的面貌，希望自己被记住为一名卓越的领导者，而事实上，他将被贬低为一个刻薄、无能的孩子。

一个关心国家和世界公民的总统在哪里？特朗普最新的好朋友全都是独裁者。哦，而且别忘了他的积累财富，以及他可能在非法获取这些财富中所享受的自豪感。他把局面搞得一团糟，而且根本不在乎谁来收拾残局。

他唯一一次说真话揭露了他的真实恐惧。对他来说，哪个党派当选国会并不重要。他只要求共和党人填满那些席位，因为如果不是这样，“他们会弹劾我”。

所以，现在他终于说实话了！ 科林·萨普斯坦（Corinne Sapstein），芝加哥

那张支票将捐给慈善机构

如果我能收到，或者一旦我收到了唐纳德·特朗普总统寄给我的那张 $90 支票，我将立即向我最喜欢的慈善机构寄出一张 $90 支票。

我希望每个人都能这样做。 ——阿琳·卡加诺夫，芝加哥

政治家的解决方案是什么？

政治家的解决方案是什么？ 中期选举即将到来。我们听到了批评，但没有听到解决方案！

这令人担忧。如果没有更好的计划付诸实施，我们将发现自己处于更糟糕的境地。仅仅说事情很糟糕、很错误或者我们不赞同是不够的。必须有更好的计划作为支撑。利用行之有效的方法；甚至共同协作。

我们的国家靠更好的创意取得成功。每年，我们都有更好的手机、新药和改良的食品。

政治家们，你们的解决方案是什么？

——苏·阿特金森，法兰克福

安妮·伦德 1952-2026

社区记者、历史学家及诺伍德公园专家

作者：鲍勃·戈尔兹伯勒 (Bob Goldsborough) 为《芝加哥论坛报》撰写

历史学家安妮·伦德 (Anne Lunde) 是《诺伍德公园：山脊之景》(Norwood Park, A View from the Ridge) 的合著者。照片：CARMINE FANTASIA

安妮·伦德对当地历史长久以来的热爱，以及她对芝加哥远西北区丰富的知识储备，使她成为合著诺伍德公园社区权威历史著作《诺伍德公园：山脊之景》的不二人选。这部全书 355 页的著作于 2024 年出版。

“她是一位非常、非常聪明的女性，在做研究时非常勤奋且坚韧，”与伦德共同撰写这部历史书的苏珊·克罗尔 (Susan Kroll) 表示，“我的意思是，在互联网出现之前的很久很久，她就在做研究了，她能够追踪到如今难以找到的稀有书籍，并从中筛选出 150 年前发生的事情的细节。她非常擅长做研究。”

伦德在几年前退休前曾长期担任社区记者。在经历长期患病后，她于 4 月 22 日在诺伍德公园的诺伍德十字路口 (Norwood Crossing) 老年社区去世，享年 74 岁。

她的朋友兼邻居乔里·史密斯 (Jori Smith) 确认了这一死讯，该消息在当时并未被广泛报道。伦德曾长期居住在爱迪生公园 (Edison Park)。

伦德对历史细节的敏锐关注以及她作为社区新闻记者在数十年间积累的丰富机构知识，使她成为那些对西北区历史感兴趣的人士的首选咨询来源。

伦德出生于 1952, 在爱迪生公园长大，并于 1969. 毕业于诺伍德公园的塔夫特高中 (Taft High School)。随后，她就读于罗克福德学院 (Rockford College)。

伦德的母亲格蕾丝 (Grace) 也是一名资深的当地记者，曾担任《爱迪生-诺伍德时报评论》(Edison-Norwood Times-Review) 报纸的专栏作家及编辑，随后成为了《爱迪生-索加纳什时报评论》(Edison-Sauganash Times-Review) 报纸的创刊编辑。

伦德在《时报评论》(Times-Review) 报纸连锁机构工作多年，担任记者和编辑，负责监督对爱迪生公园和埃奇布鲁克 (Edgebrook) 社区的报道，以及对公园岭 (Park Ridge)、奈尔斯 (Niles)、诺里奇 (Norridge) 和哈伍德高地 (Harwood Heights) 的报道。

她在 2009 年因裁员离职。随后，伦德于 2013 年被郊区《期刊与话题》(Journal & Topics) 报纸连锁机构聘用，在那里担任全职工作人员记者，直到 2024 年退休。

克罗尔表示，伦德对当地历史的热爱可以追溯到大学时代。她还提到，伦德的家族在爱迪生公园已经生活了数代。

“她的祖母之一曾是一名女权运动者，所以她的家族有参与社会事务的历史。我认为，正是因为了解家族史，让她意识到周围可能发生的事情，如果你不对这些事情进行记录，它们就会消失，人们也就无从知晓，”克罗尔说。

诺伍德公园历史学会管理着诺布尔-西蒙-克里彭故居 (Noble-Seymour-Crippen House)，该建筑建于 1833 年，被认为是芝加哥最古老的建筑。该学会的代理主席阿特·克鲁姆雷 (Art Krumrey) 称伦德为“瑰宝般的资源”，她“对诺伍德公园的房屋和企业拥有最广泛且最深厚的了解”。

克鲁姆雷还回忆起伦德的新闻工作如何帮助当地的历史研究人员。他提到她在《爱迪生-诺伍德时报评论》报纸上撰写的“社区之根”(Community Roots) 专栏，诺伍德公园历史学会已将该专栏数字化，并经常在响应社区的历史查询请求时进行检索。

“从她撰写‘社区之根’的那段日子起，她就是一个知识宝库，”克鲁姆雷说。

克鲁姆雷指出，通过研究，伦德能够确定在奥黑尔国际机场 (O'Hare International Airport) 测量噪音的第一台监测仪就位于塔夫特高中。

1996, 年，伦德为诺伍德十字路口老年社区的 100 周年庆典撰写了一部历史。大约 15 年前，伦德还研究并设计了诺伍德十字路口的一面历史墙。

Lunde 曾担任塔夫特高中校友会主席，并曾在爱迪生公园联合卫理公会教堂担任秘书、办公室经理以及新闻简报和公告的创作者等志愿者职务。

该教堂的前牧师杰里·米勒（Jerry Miller）称 Lunde 是一个“非常慷慨的人”。

“她总是在寻找改进方法，包括确保各项事务按时完成，”他说，“她能迅速响应各种需求。”

2022年2月， 从爱迪生公园搬到了格伦维尤的 Belmont Village 辅助生活社区。今年2月下旬，她搬到了 Norwood Crossing。

Smith 是近年来帮助 的几位朋友之一。Smith 与亚伯拉罕·林肯的母亲有家族渊源，她回忆起 曾“给我寄了一本小小说，一些关于林肯的趣闻，以及这些事物是如何联系在一起的——林肯、芝加哥、埃宾格小学和诺伍德公园。她热爱将这一切联系起来。”

的哥哥 Albert 是她唯一的直系亲属。他于 2020 年去世。

一场生命庆典仪式于 9 月 23 日举行。

“在我们举办的生命庆典中，我非常喜欢的一点是，我们深入探讨了社区的力量，以及 Anne 如何凭借她的写作和我们拥有的历史将社区内的人们聚集在一起，”Smith 说，“我们能为纪念 Anne 而做的一件事就是了解我们的邻居，对彼此保持好奇，倾听彼此的故事，并在能力范围内互相支持。她相信社区的力量。”

Goldsborough 是一名自由撰稿记者。

法律公告

关于在百年一遇洪水淹没区和 / 或湿地开展拟议活动的早期通知与公众审查

2026年10月9日

致：所有相关机构、团体及个人

本通知旨在告知，库克县规划与发展部根据第58部分已确定，在社区发展区块补助金（CDBG）资金及拨款 B-26-UC-17-0001 项下的以下拟议行动位于百年一遇洪水淹没区和 / 或湿地中。根据行政命令 11988 和 / 或 11990 的要求，并依照 HUD 法规 24 CFR 55.20℃分部关于洪水淹没区管理和湿地保护判定程序的规定，库克县规划与发展部将对该行动在洪水淹没区和 / 或湿地之外选址的可行替代方案，以及拟议行动对洪水淹没区和 / 或湿地的潜在影响进行识别和评估。

库克县规划与发展部已确定，对于以下项目地点，在洪水淹没区和 / 或湿地内进行改良没有其他可行替代方案：

2606-007- 马卡姆公园区（Markham Park District）拟申请拨款用于哈罗德·墨菲娱乐中心（Harold Murphy Recreation Center）的翻新与维修。所需的翻新项目包括由于水损导致的屋顶维修、勾缝、室内粉刷、体育馆地板修复及绝缘处理。该设施使用率极高，为青少年、成年人和老年人提供多种项目；拨款金额：$200,000；资金类型：CDBG；获批地点：哈罗德·墨菲娱乐中心，16053 Richmond, Markham, IL 60428。该项目位于伊利诺伊州马卡姆，被 FIRM # 17031℃0731J 识别为处于百年一遇洪水淹没区内。

2607-017- 米德洛先村（Village of Midlothian）申请资金用于更换约 660 英尺的现有 4th 水主管和 310 英尺的现有 6th 水主管。项目区域内的阀门和供水服务也将予以更换。获批地点为：Hamlin Avenue（146街至145街）及 145th Street（Avers Ave 至 Hamlin Ave）。资金类型：CDBG。拨款金额：$380,000。该项目位于伊利诺伊州米德洛先，被 FIRM # 17031℃0639J 识别为处于百年一遇洪水淹没区内且处于湿地内。

2607-006- 拟议的改良项目包括安装新的 10 英寸直径球墨铸铁水主管、阀门和地下室、消防栓，以及更换客户家中的铅制供水管。位于莱登镇（Leyden Township）的 Mannheim Rd. 与 25th . 之间的 Armitage .，以及 Armitage . 与 Dickens . 之间的 25th . 被 FIRM #17031℃0386J 识别为处于百年一遇洪水淹没区内且处于湿地内。资金类型：CDBG。拨款金额 $200,000。

2607-019- 巴特菲尔德溪（Butterfield Creek）支流改良工程将在 Sauk Trail 与 Governors Highway 交汇处的西南区域进行。现有的排水系统和蓄水池无法应对小型风暴事件，导致周边道路和相邻商业地产发生严重洪涝。改良项目将包括挖掘一个新的 100 英亩-英尺蓄水池、一个用于将东支流流入巴特菲尔德溪的洪水引导至新蓄水池的溢流堰、一个均等化雨水下水道、溢流堰改造、现有雨水下水道的改良，以及使用本土湿地植物进行景观恢复。该项目位于伊利诺伊州里奇顿公园（Richton Park），被 FIRM # 17031℃0802J 识别为处于百年一遇洪水淹没区内且处于湿地内。资金类型：CDBG。拨款金额 $500,000。

本通知主要有三个目的。首先，应让那些可能受到泛滥平原和 / 或湿地活动影响的人员，以及对自然环境保护感兴趣的人员，有机会表达他们的关切并提供有关这些区域的信息。鼓励评论者提供泛滥平原和 / 或湿地之外的替代场地、实现同一项目目的的替代方法，以及最大限度减少并减轻影响的方法。其次，一个充分的公众通知计划可以成为一个重要的公众教育工具。传播有关泛滥平原 / 湿地的信息并征求公众评论，可以促进并加强联邦政府在降低占用和改造这些特殊区域相关风险及影响方面的努力。第三，基于公平原则，当联邦政府决定参与在泛滥平原 / 湿地中开展的行动时，必须通知那些可能面临更大或持续风险的人员。

书面评论必须在 2026 年 10 月 26 日或之前发送至库克县规划与发展局的以下电子邮件地址：HOME.RESPONSE@COOKCOUNTYII.GOV。

联系人：谢丽尔·库克（Cheryl Cooke）。如需索取包含项目完整描述的电子副本，请发送电子邮件至 HOME.RESPONSE@COOKCOUNTYIL.GOV，联系人：谢丽尔·库克（Cheryl Cooke）。10 / 9 / 26 157825

Waymo 开始在底特律进行测试

该公司正在市中心及周边地区评估其全自动共享出行系统

底特律新闻（THE DETROIT NEWS）

底特律道路上的驾驶员即将熟悉一种在南部和西海岸其他城市已变得普遍的现象：没有人在方向盘后驾驶的汽车。

LLC 的共享出行服务本周在底特律开始了全自动测试，方向盘后无需人类专家，该共享出行公司正逐步接近向公众提供服务。这家由 Alphabet Inc. 拥有的公司自去年 11 月起就已在底特律大都会区崭露头角，其中国制造的 Zeekr Ojai 车辆一直在道路上行驶。 还使用白色捷豹 iPace 型号。

产品传播经理 Chris Bonelli 表示，目前还没有在底特律部署所谓 Driver 服务的具体时间表。但 正在市中心及周边社区进行测试，包括 Corktown、Midtown、Hamtramck 和 Indian Village，并计划进一步扩大规模。在通过手机应用程序（类似于 Uber 应用）向公众开放乘车服务之前，它将公布其服务区域地图。

的运营范围涵盖从旧金山到亚特兰大的多个城市。底特律与丹佛、明尼阿波利斯、芝加哥和蒙特利尔一样，是 探索的首批北方城市之一，旨在将其服务扩展到气候多变的州。

丹佛的服务于今年夏天开放，Telemetry 分析师 Sam Abuelsamid 预计，底特律服务将在年底前以有限规模可用， 应用将于 2027 年初向广大公众开放。

“这取决于，你知道，事情进展得有多顺利，”Abuelsamid 说道。“它还取决于特定州具体的许可规则。 是首家在密歇根州开展（自动驾驶共享出行）的公司。”

Zeekr Ojai 是对捷豹 的升级，配备了第六代 Driver 系统，使车辆能够在冬季条件下运行。

“第六代 Driver 系统拥有最新一代的雷达、激光雷达和摄像头，”Abuelsamid 继续说道。“与捷豹上搭载的第五代系统相比，它降低了约 $50% 的成本。他们已经在一些现代 Ioniq 5 上对其进行了测试，这些车辆将在今年晚些时候推出。”

Ojai 在中国生产，即使在征收关税后，其价格仍显著低于捷豹。进口后，这款电动面包车在亚利桑那州梅萨（Mesa）的工厂内安装 的硬件和软件。

没有透露其车辆制造费用，但 Abuelsamid 估计，在完全适配 Driver 后，该公司为 Ojai 支付约 $60,000-$70,000，为捷豹支付约 $140,000-$150,000。

正在增加梅萨工厂的产能，以实现每年制造数万辆的目标。Ojai 拥有宽敞的座舱—— 将其称为“轮上的客厅”——其特点包括为乘客提供的 Gemini AI、嵌入式盲文和屏幕阅读器兼容功能，以及用于乘客无障碍出行的座椅集成把手。

与之前的其他城市一样，从驾驶员监控到全自动乘车的演进是 标准测试周期的一部分。在测试的初始阶段， 对公司计划运营区域的街道进行了地图绘制，然后将 Driver 软件与当地的照明和交通安全配置相结合。新阶段是在经历了数月由驾驶员监控随车运行、让所谓的 Driver 熟悉城市街道、与当地官员协调以及与社区成员沟通以了解 服务及其技术运作方式之后开启的。

“在我们将服务向公众开放之前，乘车服务最初仅面向 Waymo 员工提供，”博内利表示。“我们将遵循我们的安全框架，在对该城市的各项技术进行充分验证且当地运营准备就绪后，开始为底特律的乘客提供服务。”

除了车辆测试，Waymo 一直在融入当地社区。为了强调安全性和无障碍出行，它已与密歇根癫痫基金会、底特律及东南部密歇根城市联盟以及密歇根州反对酒驾母亲协会建立合作伙伴关系。Waymo 还担任了密歇根自行车联盟 HUBFest 的冠名赞助商，提供头盔检查和赠品。

Waymo 声称，在其运营城市累计超过 2.7 亿 英里的全自动驾驶里程中，导致严重伤亡的碰撞事故比人类驾驶员减少了 95%。

本月，莱克县一家新的酿酒厂将开业，加入到一批已开始运营的当地酿酒厂之列，这得益于精酿啤酒日益增长的普及度。

芬顿酿酒公司将于本周六在蒙德莱因正式开业，接管位于北西摩尔大道 169 号（169 N Seymour Ave）原 Tonality 酿酒公司的场地。所有者、蒙德莱因本地人本·芬顿表示，该社区酿酒厂的密集分布使其成为了精酿爱好者的目的地。

这家酿酒厂加入了莱克县悠久且充满故事——尽管有时是非法的——酒精与酿酒历史之中。

本·芬顿在蒙德莱因长大，在餐饮业工作了十年。他曾就读于爱尔兰的 Ballymaloe 烹饪学校，但并非为了学习酿酒。在校期间，他觉得在爱尔兰酿造一款啤酒会是一个“很酷的故事”，在制作几个批次的过程中，他爱上了酿酒。

实际上，是该校首席侍酒师的妻子告诉他应该将酿酒作为职业，在过去的几年里，他一直在不同的餐厅和酿酒厂工作，以学习该行业的“方方面面”。其中包括莱克县的第一家酿酒酒吧 Mickey Finn's Brewery。

在疫情期间，他参加了芝加哥 Siebel 技术学院的酿酒课程，该学院是美国最古老的酿酒学校，可追溯至 1868 年，今年已搬迁至蒙特利尔。

随着蒙德莱因的发展，他的兄弟联系了他，表示现在是回归的好时机。今年 3 月，他们接管了新建筑。这里原为 Tonality 酿酒厂，已经拥有了经营该业务所需的大部分设备。

芬顿表示，他们将提供多种酿造啤酒，专注于英式和爱尔兰式啤酒，并安装了一台全新的木火披萨烤炉。

回到家乡并创业，芬顿对正式开业感到兴奋，并计划提供每周活动和音乐表演。他说，他已经遇到了许多熟面孔。

“这是一次回归，”芬顿说道。

“推与拉”

莱克县与酒精的关系并非一直如此和谐。贝斯·鲍尔·邓恩莱克县博物馆（Bess Bower Dunn Museum of Lake County）的莱克县历史学家戴安娜·德雷茨克（Diana Dretske）谈到了该县在酒精消费方面自 19 世纪以来经历的“推与拉”过程。

甚至在禁酒令之前，整个县就存在强烈的反饮酒情绪，一些较小的社区实行“禁酒”，以各种形式制定禁止酒精的法律。

这对于任何通过该县运输的酿酒商来说都是一个问题，例如始于 1853 年的 Besley 沃基根酿酒厂（Besley Waukegan Brewery）。他们不得不重新规划运输——

Pulte 终止内珀维尔项目

该开发项目原计划在 32 英亩土地上建造 94 套双拼住宅

作者：Carolyn Stein 内珀维尔太阳报 (NAPERVILLE SUN)

一项计划在 75 街和格莱德斯通大道 (Gladstone Drive) 附近 32 英亩茂密林地上建造 94 套双拼住宅的有争议开发项目将不再推进。

内珀维尔市议会原定于周二晚上对“内珀维尔岭”(Naperville Ridge) 项目进行投票，但 Pulte Homes 在会议开始前几个小时撤回了该项目。

“我们非常重视与内珀维尔市的长期合作伙伴关系，并为我们共同取得的成就感到自豪，”Pulte 的项目律师拉斯·惠特克 (Russ Whitaker) 在给市府的一封信中写道。“虽然我们对内珀维尔岭无法按计划推进感到失望，但我们将继续在现有及未来的社区中提供急需的新房供应。”

惠特克拒绝就本报道发表评论。

数月来，该住房项目遭到了内珀维尔地区居民的强烈抵制，许多人对其环境影响表示担忧。一项在线反对请愿书收集了 3,600 多个签名，另有 80 人向市议会提交了反对批准该项目的立场声明。

“问题不仅仅在于砍掉 850 棵树，”内珀维尔居民玛丽琳·施魏策尔 (Marilyn Schweitzer) 表示。“问题在于生态系统的显著减少和破坏，以及主要由拟议密度驱动的 PUD（计划单元开发）偏差，且缺乏整体的社区利益。”

如果该开发项目获得批准，它将需要被并入市区，重新划分为 R2 低密度多家庭住房区，并获得一项条件使用许可，以便作为计划单元开发项目进行处理。

Pulte 还请求允许在东侧地界建造一个 8 英尺高的围栏（通常的高度限制为 6 英尺），并请求种植少于法规要求的路边行道树。

该地块拥有两处湿地和 2,000 多棵树。作为开发计划的一部分，Pulte 原计划保留两处湿地并救下约 1,300 棵树，使场地 $55 的面积保持为开放空间。届时将聘请一个独立组织协助维护该开放空间，相关费用由业主协会出资。

美国暂停微软参与 H-1B 签证计划

万斯指控该公司在雇佣外国员工时存在欺诈行为

作者：Seung Min Kim 和 Rebecca Santana 美联社

华盛顿 —— 唐纳德·特朗普总统政府暂停了科技巨头微软参与一项为使用 H-1B 签证来美生活和工作的员工申请绿卡的计划，并指控该公司存在欺诈行为。

总统的支持者长期以来一直认为，像副总统 JD 万斯指控微软滥用的这类计划，实质上是赋予了美国公司招募外国员工的权力，而这些员工最终会削弱美国人的就业竞争力。在周四的一项广泛公告中，万斯和其他政府高层官员还点名批评了大学对 J-1 签证（针对国际学生）的使用以及信息技术外包公司。

万斯表示，微软被暂停参与的该计划要求公司在向劳工部申请为外国员工提供绿卡之前，必须先在美国境内发布招聘广告，以证明由于缺乏美国工人而有此必要。

“他们会在小镇的报纸上刊登广告。然后他们会说：‘我们已经为公司的某个职位发布了广告，但没有人响应。’接着，他们会利用这种缺乏响应的情况，用实际上是外国契约劳工的人来取代美国工人，”万斯说。“不幸的是，在美国没有任何一家公司比微软更频繁地利用这个系统。”

总部位于华盛顿州雷德蒙德（靠近西雅图）的微软公司未立即回应置评请求。

万斯表示，微软去年裁员 6,000 名美国员工，但同时获得了 6,300 个 H-1B 签证和近 3,000 张绿卡。

“如果你算一下，微软每裁掉 1 名工人，就会用一个半外国契约劳工来取代，”万斯在白宫宣布该决定的新闻发布会上说道。“我们给微软的信息是：你们是一家伟大的美国公司，但你们必须雇佣优秀的美国工人。”

万斯称 H-1B 工人实际上是外国契约劳工，因为如果他们失去工作，就必须离开这个国家，而且他们的薪资低于担任相同职位的美国人。

H-1B 计划长期以来一直是特朗普支持者的攻击目标，他们认为该计划削弱了美国工人的地位且充斥着滥用行为。

H-1B 签证旨在用于难以找到美国工人填补的高技能职位。科技公司是该签证的最大使用者，近四分之三的批准名额给了来自印度的工人。

万斯的公告发布前一天，特朗普政府刚刚发起了另一场针对国际学生及其在美工作能力的猛烈抨击。

迎合挑剔的宠物口味

猫狗成为宠物食品公司在追求老龄动物食品增长领域中的试吃员

作者：珍妮·格罗斯 (Jenny Gross) 《纽约时报》

法国埃马格 (AIMARGUES) —— 想象一下，几十只猫在像宠物日托中心一样的空间里打盹或走动。

每天下午 4 点，晚餐时间到了。猫咪们走进一个个小隔间，每个隔间里都有两个放在秤上的干粮托盘。猫咪们选择它们更喜欢的食物，而秤则测量它们的食用量。法国南部皇家 Canin (Royal Canin) 宠物中心的营养学家们正在观察：动物更喜欢哪种干粮？它们进食的积极程度如何？一个团队利用这些数据来调整配方并设计新配方。

像由全球消费品巨头玛氏 (Mars) 拥有的皇家 Canin 这样的宠物食品制造商，正投入大量资金进行研究，以了解猫狗的口味，并迎合那些将宠物视为家庭成员的人。尽管伊朗的战争引发了通货膨胀，且工资增长未能跟上，但宠物食品市场仍在持续增长。

随着 2020, 年大量被领养的“疫情宠物”进入中年，宠物食品制造商正将目光锁定在旨在缓解关节疼痛、增强疲劳肌肉和保护认知功能的食品上。

“老龄化是最大的机遇之一，”皇家 Canin 总裁塞西尔·库滕斯 (Cécile Coutens) 表示。该公司的老年猫粮系列包括为 11 岁及以上猫咪设计的特软慕斯，以及为 15 岁及以上猫咪设计的易食用干粮。

许多公司销售针对患有认知障碍的猫以及支持大脑健康老化的补充剂。

通货膨胀推高了传统干粮（法语称为 “croquettes”）的价格。然而，狗粮和猫粮货架上的选择变得昂贵且专业化，一些品牌甚至销售新鲜的人类食品级食品。研究表明，人们在削减自身开支之前，会先保证宠物的开支。普瑞纳 (Purina) 去年推出了一款金字塔形状的“优雅果冻嫩切块”料理，以鼓励猫咪大口进食。

根据消费者研究公司 NielsenIQ 的数据，过去一年美国在猫粮上的支出超过 170 亿美元 billion，比两年前的同期增长了 14%。（狗粮销售额大致持平。）库滕斯表示，与前几代父母因孩子要求而养宠物不同，现在的人们通常在生孩子之前（如果他们打算生孩子的话）就先养宠物。

随着 K 型经济（贫富差距扩大的简称）的持续，公司正在投资于迎合富裕人群的高端宠物食品系列。

“我们非常喜欢猫，因为在某种意义上，猫是更挑食的，所以你需要更多的科学技术才能成功地迎合它们，”雀巢 (Nestle) 首席执行官菲利普·纳夫拉蒂尔 (Philipp Navratil) 在 6 月的一次会议上表示。随着人们在办公室花费的时间增加，近年来猫的领养率高于狗。

像拥有两个研究猫狗行为中心的雀巢一样，皇家 Canin 也有一个专门针对狗和猫的广泛研究项目。在皇家 Canin 位于埃马格的宠物中心，在校园内生活的 377 只狗和猫中，只有最挑食的个体才会参与口味测试。该公司的另一个宠物中心位于俄亥俄州。

作为训练的一部分，小猫会被提供不同质地和口味的食物，以开发它们的感官。

米兰美国公司欠薪员工同意接受赔偿金

作者：科琳·巴里 (Colleen Barry) 美联社

米兰 —— 周三，在米兰建设新美国领事馆大院的外籍工人签署了协议，就其在一家美国建筑公司工作期间涉嫌遭受的劳工虐待问题，每人获得平均 50,400 美元的赔偿金。

60 多名工人（主要来自印度）于周三签署协议，领取他们在上个月与总部位于阿拉巴马州的卡德尔建筑公司（Caddell Construction）达成的近 3500 万美元和解金中的份额。

检察官表示，这是欧洲历史上针对劳工剥削的最大规模和解。

每位工人签署了一份文件，同意不对卡德尔公司进行诋毁，且不对个人赔偿金额进行披露。卡德尔公司在文件中表示，此次和解并不代表承认承担法律责任。

负责将领事馆施工现场恢复合法状态的法院指定管理人弗朗切斯科·布里加蒂（Francesco Brigatti）表示，工人们在签署协议时才首次看到具体金额，其中最高金额接近 101,000 美元。

布里加蒂说，赔偿金包括未支付的加班费、非法从工资中扣除的住房费报销，以及调查检察官保罗·斯托拉里（Paolo Storari）寻求的损害赔偿。

在两天时间内，共有 115 名工人签署了协议，相关程序将于下周继续进行。

检察官称，工人们的时薪低于 2 美元，住房费被非法扣除，且在每天工作长达 10 小时、每周工作六天的情况下被拒绝支付加班费。据称，他们还受到威胁，且在工作中受伤时未能获得适当的医疗护理。大多数工人来自印度，但也包括尼日利亚、肯尼亚和孟加拉国。

针对卡德尔公司的调查仍在进行中，等待赔偿金发放完毕（预计将于 2 月前完成）。两名被调查的经理目前仍被软禁。

卡德尔公司的和解方案包括向意大利社会保障金库和工伤保险支付 1250 万美元。根据协议，这些工人还将获得在意大利工作的许可，即使是在卡德尔公司工地以外的地方。

AI 推动贸易，世贸组织上调增长预测

作者：杰米·基滕 (Jamey Keaten) 美联社

日内瓦 —— 世界贸易组织（WTO）大幅上调了今年全球商品贸易增长的预测，将其之前的预测值提高了一倍多，至 3.9%，因为蓬勃发展的 AI 投资抵消了中东战争带来的冲击。

这家总部位于日内瓦的贸易机构表示，随着供应链的适应以及 相关支出的涌入，全球贸易保持了强劲的增长势头，为“商品贸易提供了强力推动”。

此次修订后的预测与世贸组织今年春季最初预测的 1.9% 商品贸易增长相比有了大幅跳升。该数字不包括服务贸易。该机构预测明年的增长率为 4.1%，高于 3 月预测的 2.9%。

世贸组织表示：“此次修订反映出证据表明，全球供应链已适应能源和化肥市场的中断，而对 相关基础设施的强力投资推动了 赋能商品的贸易。”

在 2 月美国与以色列针对伊朗的战争开始后，通过波斯湾进行的石油、天然气和化肥贸易受到了冲击。

世贸组织表示，在人工智能市场的推动下，今年上半年商品贸易增长了 3.5%。

世贸组织称：“在 2026 年上半年，半导体和服务器等 赋能商品的需求占全球商品贸易增长的 47%，这些产品的贸易额同比增长 67%，较 2024 年和 2025 年已经快速扩张的态势进一步加速。”

世贸组织表示，预计今年全球 GDP 将增长 2.6%，明年增长 2.9%，尽管其预测中东冲突将继续通过推高能源价格和干扰运输路线来拖累贸易。

长期抵押贷款利率连续第七周上涨

抵押贷款利率连续第七周攀升，推动美国长期住房贷款平均利率达到近三年来的最高水平。

抵押贷款买家房地美（Freddie Mac）周四表示，基准的 30 年期固定利率抵押贷款从上周的 7.28% 上涨至 7.40%。一年前，平均利率为 6.30%。

目前的平均利率是自 2023 年 11 月 16 日（当时为 $7.44）以来的最高点。

今年住房市场一直陷入低迷，很大程度上是因为抵押贷款利率的上升，这会增加借款人每月数百美元的成本，限制了购房者的购买力，并促使许多人推迟购房。

15 年期固定利率抵押贷款的借贷成本同样上涨。该平均利率从上周的 $6.60 增加到 $6.73。一年前，该利率为 $5.53。——美联社

上周失业救济申请人数降至 197,000 的低位

华盛顿——由于裁员人数保持在低位，且大多数美国工人享有就业保障，上周申请美国失业救济的人数略有下降。

劳工部周四表示，初次申请失业救济人数从前一周修正后的 199,000 人小幅下降至 197,000 人。用于平滑周度波动的四周平均申请人数下降了 2,500 人，至 198,000 人。

失业救济申请人数是裁员情况的指标。今年以来，申请人数一直保持在 220,000 人以下的历史低位。

该报告表明，大多数公司对经济及其销售情况足够自信，能够留住员工。与此同时，招聘活动一直较为缓慢，导致出现了一个“低招聘、低裁员”的就业市场。上个月，失业率小幅上升至 4.2% 的低位。——美联社

百事公司将在第三季度财报后提高部分产品价格

百事公司（PepsiCo）计划在北美地区第三季度表现不佳后，提高部分零食和饮料的价格，并削减公司成本。

此次涨价将涉及多力多滋（Doritos）、乐事 Ruffles、太阳薯片（SunChips）和部分汽水，涨幅将在个位数百分比范围内，且价格仍将低于今年年初的水平。

百事公司周四表示，必须提高价格以弥补燃料、铝和农产品成本的上涨。

该公司降低了全年的盈利预期，称目前预计调整后的每股收益将增长 2.5% 至 3.5%。

在 7 月至 9 月期间，净营收增长 5.6% 至 252.7 亿美元 billion。华尔街此前预期的营收为 249.5 亿美元 billion。

第三季度净利润增长 17% 至 30.7 亿美元 billion。——美联社

日本西部富山县的警方正在调查约 3,000 名不存在的居民是如何被添加到该市官方数据中的。ANDREW FAULK / 纽约时报 2024

随着日本人口萎缩，某城市被指伪造人口普查数据

作者：上野久子（Hisako Ueno）和蒂法尼·梅（Tiffany May） 《纽约时报》

在日本这个全球老龄化最迅速的社会之一，官员们经常面临着遏制人口下降趋势的压力，因为人口减少可能会带来预算削减和公众的羞辱。现在，一个城市被指控通过虚报人数来掩盖人口萎缩的迹象。

在中央政府的一个部门表示在审查人口普查数据期间发现不一致之处后，地区警方于周六突击搜查了日本西部的富山（Toyama）市政厅。日本总务省上周表示，已对参与人口普查的市级官员提起诉讼，指控他们在调查中通过添加空置住户来虚报人口数量。

专家表示，这些造假指控反映出一些地方政府为了维持人口水平稳定（至少在表面上）而采取的极端手段。日本人口在 2008, 达到 1.28 亿 的峰值，目前为 1.23 亿 人，规模与 1989 大致相当。

富山市长藤井博久（Hirohisa Fujii）在周六的一份声明中表示道歉，并称市级官员将全力配合警方调查。根据日本法律，伪造统计数据可能会被处以罚金或最高六个月的监禁。

总务省人口普查部门的官员辻健太（Kenta Tsuji）表示，数据的不一致是在人口普查数据的最终审查阶段发现的。今年 5 月发布的人口估算值与上周公布的最终普查记录之间存在近 3,000 人的差异。

富山市是富山县最大的城市，也是其首府，位于日本阿尔卑斯山的边缘。这里居住着约 400,000 名居民，曾被世界银行誉为限制城市扩张和过度依赖汽车的紧凑型城市的“全球典范”。

日本每五年进行一次全国人口普查。今年 5 月，当一次独立的人口统计显示该市人口已跌至 400,000, 人以下时，藤井表达了担忧。

“虽然我认为 400,000 这个数字只是一个里程碑，但我确实认为它具有重大意义，”他当时告诉记者。“我们跌破这个数字的事实给我留下了深刻的印象。”

人口估算对地方政府而言可能至关重要。中央政府通常根据人口规模向地方政府分配补贴，一些较小地区在人口下降后面临了严重的预算削减。

10 月 2, 藤井表示，由于人口减少以及学龄儿童人数下降，中央政府的补贴可能会减少 $380,000。

中央大学经济学名誉教授、城市管理专家佐佐木信雄（Nobuo Sasaki）表示，该市可能试图“不惜一切代价”维持其与附近城市——人口 450,000 的金泽（Kanazawa）和人口 750,000 的新潟（Niigata）——同等的地位，而这些城市作为旅游目的地的受欢迎程度日益增加。

“另一种可能性是，工作人员担心该市作为紧凑型城市开发成功典范的声誉受损，为了面子而采取了违规行为，”佐佐木在一次采访中说道。

酿酒厂 接 B1 版

1887. 年位于沃基根（Waukegan）湖街和尤蒂卡街的贝斯利酿酒厂（Besley Brewery）。随着禁酒运动的兴起，贝斯利酿酒厂试图顺应时代，但在 1912. 年左右被出售。邓恩博物馆（DUNN MUSEUM）

在禁酒社区周围的运输，这在马车时代尤为困难。

德雷茨克（Dretske）表示，在全国范围内，女性是禁酒令的主要倡导者，她们的努力是让女性在社会中获得地位和话语权的关键一步。

“女性们一直面临没有收入的问题，因此你必须依赖丈夫，但丈夫却把钱全花在酒吧里了，”她说。“之前的这种情况在伤害家庭，因为酒类实在太容易买到了。”

随着禁酒运动的兴起，贝斯利酿酒厂（Besley Brewery）试图与时俱进，但后来在 1912 年左右被出售。德雷茨克（Dretske）表示，仅在几年后，沃基根（Waukegan）市本身就投票决定禁酒，这一转变在一定程度上是由最近获得投票权的女性推动的。这对该酿酒厂来说是“丧钟”。

但在 1920 年，禁酒令的兴起为一些莱克县（Lake County）社区开启了一个新时代。芝加哥的黑帮分子，或者用德雷茨克的话说，那些“无赖”，会来到北部地区喝酒、派对，并普遍制造麻烦。

连锁湖（Chain O'Lakes）地区因当年的黑帮联系而尤为出名。福克斯湖（Fox Lake）保留着臭名昭著的米尼奥拉酒店（Mineola Hotel）的遗迹，该酒店与芝加哥黑帮有多种联系；还有曼宁酒店（Manning Hotel），这里是 1930 年一起黑帮枪击事件——“福克斯湖大屠杀”的发生地，当时有三人被杀。

德雷茨克表示，虽然当地农民在禁酒令期间仍以经营自己的小型私酿酒坊而闻名，但直到 1942 年，莱克县才再次出现大型官方酿酒厂，即在吉尔默（Gilmer）开业的泽曼酿酒公司（Zeman Brewing Company）。该公司一直经营到 1964 年，随后一场龙卷风摧毁了厂房。

德雷茨克说，直到 20 世纪 90 年代，利伯蒂维尔（Libertyville）的 Micky Finns 才开启了另一家精酿酒吧。近几十年来，随着年轻人开始尝试创造不同的饮品和酿造方式并进行实验，一种新型的酿造文化开始兴起。

但认为自己是最新精酿热潮一部分的芬顿（Fenton）表示，随着趋势的衰退，该行业已经发生了转变。酿酒厂需要更多亮点才能脱颖而出。

“现在绝对是一个进入该行业的艰难时期，”芬顿说。“如今，仅仅有好的啤酒是不够的。市面上已经有很多优秀的酿酒厂了。”

毕竟，芬顿酿酒厂目前的所在地原为 Tonality 酿酒公司。在宣布关闭的在线帖子中，Tonality 表示“该行业现在的痛苦程度超过以往任何时候”。

关于这块 32 英亩土地的计划尚不明确。杜佩奇水务委员会（DuPage Water Commission）已将该土地视为盈余土地，原计划将其以 1400万美元 的价格出售给 Pulte 公司。

杜佩奇水务委员会主席吉姆·扎伊（Jim Zay）周二晚上表示，委员会与 Pulte 公司的合同有效期至 11 月。他说，他不知道该公司的未来意图。

数月来一直公开反对该开发项目的丽塔·特雷奥尼斯（Rita Treonis）在周二下午听到提案被撤回时感到惊讶。她说，她仍然“谨慎乐观”地认为能为这块土地找到更好的用途。

“我们将不得不等待并观察接下来会发生什么，”她说。“这是一个重要的步骤，希望能为更注重环保的机会打开大门。”

她说，她希望看到杜佩奇水务委员会与杜佩奇县森林保护区（Forest Preserve District of DuPage County）共同努力保护该遗址。

森林保护区董事会主席丹尼尔·赫布里亚德（Daniel Hebreard）此前曾写道，他支持该物业保持为开放空间。然而，由于杜佩奇水务委员会与森林保护区之间没有就该物业进行讨论，他说他不支持森林保护区收购该物业。

赫布里亚德周三下午表示，他以及森林保护区都不会对这块 32 英亩土地的未来发表评论。

“Pulte 财力雄厚且拥有顶尖律师，”特雷奥尼斯说。“但这里的人们和树木根基深厚……在我们等待下一步进展的同时，绝大多数人都希望寻求一个注重环保的解决方案和管理方式，以保护这片定居前的原始森林。”

阿拉巴马州巴尤拉巴特雷 ——周四，伊赛亚飓风作为大西洋飓风季的首场飓风向墨西哥湾沿岸袭来，导致佛罗里达州部分地区实施强制撤离、学校关闭以及地方政府停工。

据预测，伊赛亚将在周五晚些时候或周六凌晨沿北部墨西哥湾沿岸登陆，届时将迅速增强，并给佛罗里达狭长地带、阿拉巴马州和密西西比州带来强风和危及生命的风暴潮。强降雨和洪水可能会在周末期间影响到远至田纳西河谷的内陆地区。

“我们预计伊赛亚在登陆时将是一场危险的飓风，”位于迈阿密的国家飓风中心主任迈克尔·布伦南表示。

他补充道：“今天就是准备和就绪的日子，请在明天之前到达安全地带，因为随着伊赛亚的接近，北部墨西哥湾沿岸的情况将迅速恶化。”

飓风中心表示，该飓风的最大持续风速约为 85 英里 / 小时，周四下午正以 10 英里 / 小时的速度向东东北方向移动。

沿海社区迅速采取准备行动，阿拉巴马州海湾海岸市和橙滩市的官员敦促游客立即撤离，并警告称桥梁可能会在周五中午前关闭。佛罗里达州至少有 4 个学区取消了本周后期的课程，同时有几个县宣布对部分沿海地区实施强制撤离。在伊赛亚抵达之前，佛罗里达州和阿拉巴马州的州长已宣布数十个县进入紧急状态。

位于阿拉巴马州海岸外、长 15 英里的屏障岛多芬岛鼓励部分人员自愿撤离。

“那个区域传统上非常容易受到风暴潮（咸水洪水）的影响，而且那里也是大多数游客所在地，”市长杰夫·科利尔周四在谈到该岛西部地区时表示。

他说，他预计不会出现重大损失，“但与此同时，这些情况非常多变，稍微的一点偏移或最后一刻强度的增加，我们必须为最坏的情况做好准备。”

飓风中心表示，风暴潮和高潮带来的海水在阿拉巴马州和密西西比州的部分地区可能会达到 5 到 7 英尺高。伊赛亚还可能在墨西哥湾沿岸部分地区带来高达 15 英寸的降雨，并在周五夜间至周六期间，从阿拉巴马州到佛罗里达狭长地带以及佐治亚州西南部引发龙卷风。预计该飓风在登陆后将迅速减弱。

国家气象局告知从密西西比州奥申斯普林斯到佛罗里达州湾县的社区，准备应对“长时间停电”的可能性。

伊赛亚在大西洋飓风季开始四个多月后才形成，距离打破该地区首场飓风最晚形成这一 121 年前的记录仅差一天。根据气象局的数据，该记录可追溯到 1905 年，当时该年度首场大西洋飓风于 10 月 8 日形成。飓风季于 11 月 30 日结束。

由于强烈的厄尔尼诺现象干扰了大西洋上的风暴形成，今年的大西洋飓风季异常平静。太平洋地区的风暴活动则高于平均水平，热带风暴“西蒙”周三在墨西哥附近形成，预计将增强为 4 级飓风。在更北的地方，热带风暴“瑞秋”预计将在本周末抵达墨西哥下加利福尼亚州和南加利福尼亚州。

预计伊赛亚将袭击一段对大型飓风并不陌生的海岸线。

20世纪最严重的风暴之一——卡米尔飓风（Hurricane Camille）在1969年袭击密西西比州韦夫兰附近陆地后，造成250多人死亡。2005年的卡特里娜飓风摧毁了密西西比州的多个社区，淹没了新奥尔良，并导致近1,400人死亡。而2018年的迈克尔飓风则夷平了佛罗里达州巴拿马城附近的房屋和建筑。

在风暴来临之前，石油和天然气生产商关闭了墨西哥湾很大一部分的海上生产线，该地区贡献了美国每年原油产量的近15%。根据海洋矿产管理局的数据，该地区约63%的石油生产已被暂时停止，导致每天近130 万桶原油退出市场。该局表示，墨西哥湾371个设有工作人员的石油平台中，已有121个被撤离。

标普全球能源（S&P Global Energy）原油市场研究全球主管吉姆·伯克哈德（Jim Burkhard）表示，在油价已经处于高位的情况下，减产足以影响市场，尽管其他袭击墨西哥湾的飓风曾造成过更大规模的干扰。他表示，更令人担忧的是，伊赛亚飓风是否会以强风暴的形式袭击炼油厂附近地区。

阿拉巴马州州长凯·艾维（Kay Ivey）宣布40个县进入紧急状态，而佛罗里达州州长罗恩·德桑蒂斯（Ron DeSantis）则宣布佛罗里达狭长地带（Panhandle）和大弯曲（Big Bend）地区的25个县进入紧急状态。该州还计划部署一支总部位于迈阿密的城市搜索与救援特遣队。

在彭萨科拉，官员表示机场将于周五上午停止商业航班运行，同时电力部门正为停电做准备，官员们也开放了沙袋分发点。

市长D.C.里夫斯（D.C. Reeves）敦促居民关注年长邻居以及其他可能需要帮助的人。“显然，目前没有必要恐慌，”里夫斯说，“这实际上关乎于准备工作。”

前委内瑞拉总统面临新的酷刑指控

美国对被羁押在纽约联邦设施的强人增加指控，将其纳入毒品案件

作者：Philip Marcelo, Michael R. Sisak 和 Joshua Goodman 美联社

纽约 —— 美国当局周四在针对委内瑞拉前总统尼古拉斯·马杜罗（Nicolás Maduro）的案件中增加了新的酷刑指控，从而加大了对这位已被罢免且已在应对毒品走私指控的独裁领导人的压力。

马杜罗及其妻子西莉亚·弗洛雷斯（Cilia Flores）此前已被指控参与向美国走私可卡因的阴谋，现在他们还面临在担任这个石油富集南美国家总统期间涉嫌侵犯人权的指控。

驻纽约美国检察官杰米·麦克唐纳（Jamie McDonald）在处理此案的法院外表示，更新后的起诉书“指控了真正令人难以想象的行为”。他表示，数千名委内瑞拉人以及部分美国人遭受了酷刑，以确保马杜罗和弗洛雷斯能够维持权力。

“这是腐败的典型，”麦克唐纳说。

指控内容包括在马杜罗的指示下实施电击、殴打和窒息。起诉书称，马杜罗批准了酷刑手段，寻求并获取了关于特定受害者待遇的最新进展，观看了一段强迫认罪的视频，并亲自威胁要杀死一名囚犯的孩子，“将其作为一种心理酷刑”。

起诉书主张，曾任立法者和总检察长的弗洛雷斯协助建立了这套镇压体系，并下令对某些特定人员实施酷刑。

目前已向马杜罗的律师发送了寻求评论的消息。弗洛雷斯的律师表示，他还没有时间审阅新的指控。

在多年前首次针对他们及众多涉嫌共谋者提出的美国毒品案件中，这对夫妇辩称无罪。他们的律师要求撤销此案，理由是他们作为外国国家领导人和第一夫人享有豁免权。

如果被定罪，他们可能面临终身监禁。

马杜罗从2013年起担任委内瑞拉总统，直到今年1月被抓获。多年来，国际刑事法院一直因其镇压反对派涉嫌反人类罪而对其进行调查。他一直否认有任何不当行为。

自1月初美国军队在一次深夜突袭中将其从加拉加斯家中抓获以来，马杜罗和弗洛雷斯一直被羁押在纽约。周四，弗洛雷斯的律师请求法官允许其接受居家监禁，但未获批准。

在法院外，十多名示威者高喊口号并举牌支持她的请求。

修订后的起诉书多次提到委内瑞拉令人恐惧的 DGCIM 军事情报局的参与，该机构多年来由马杜罗的共同被告之一——雨果·卡瓦哈尔（Hugo Carvajal）将军领导。卡瓦哈尔在多年前与马杜罗决裂，去年承认毒品走私指控，并提出愿意出庭指证其前上司。

虽然起诉书没有点名涉嫌遭受酷刑的受害者，但其中三人被描述为美国公民。起诉书称，其中一人在被囚禁的八个月里被殴打、遭受电击并被强迫食用自己的呕吐物。另一人被严重殴打至需要长期住院，且被枪口塞进嘴里。第三人被戴上手铐、蒙上头套，在两天内每隔半小时被殴打一次，导致眼睛永久受伤。

长期以来，马杜罗一直无视美国公民在美国法院提出的诉讼，这些原告指称他们在委内瑞拉被拘留期间遭到殴打。

原告中包括马修·希思（Matthew Heath），一名来自田纳西州的前海军陆战队下士。他在2020年于委内瑞拉的一个路障处被捕，并被拘留了两年多。

今年5月，希思和另一名前囚犯在针对马杜罗及其他委内瑞拉高层官员的诉讼中赢得了3亿美元的缺席判决，指控对方监管并实施了一系列酷刑。该诉讼是根据一项联邦反恐法提出的，指控内容包括水刑、电击、用警棍威胁强奸、强制服用改变意识的药物，以及反复使用一个被称为“小老虎”（El Tigrito）的狭小囚室。

“看到一个独裁者被法庭传唤，这简直令人难以置信，”希思在周四获悉新指控时表示。

与此同时，弗洛雷斯的律师辩称，69岁的弗洛雷斯患有在监狱中无法得到有效治疗的医疗问题。律师表示，她在布鲁克林大都会拘留中心服刑期间体重减轻了25磅，可能在7月遭受了一次轻微心脏病发作，且一直处于“持续的轻微头晕、眩晕和呼吸短促”状态，并被告知可能需要进行心脏手术。

英国法官：前王子爱泼斯坦案搜查令非法

作者：丹妮卡·基尔卡（Danica Kirka）和布赖恩·梅利（Brian Melley） 美联社

伦敦——一名伦敦法官周四表示，警方在调查前安德鲁王子与已故性犯罪者杰弗里·爱泼斯坦（Jeffrey Epstein）的联系时，非法搜查了他的住所。

尼古拉斯·希利亚德（Nicholas Hilliard）法官表示，在针对这位现名为安德鲁·蒙巴顿-温莎（Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor）的失宠前王子的调查中，泰晤士河谷警方在申请搜查令时，以及法官在批准搜查令时，都犯了严重错误。

蒙巴顿-温莎没有出庭，但他此前已经获悉这一部分法律胜利，因为警方在 7 月份就已承认这些搜查令是不恰当的。

然而，警方在调查继续期间试图将此事屏蔽在公众视线之外，导致该消息披露延迟。

蒙巴顿-温莎于 2 月 19 日因涉嫌职务渎职被捕，警方搜查了他的两处住所。

他的律师请求高等法院法官宣布允许这些搜查的搜查令无效。

未参与此案的律师马克·斯蒂芬斯（Mark Stephens）表示，这一进展“为安德鲁·蒙巴顿-温莎的律师提供了一个机会，让他们开始削弱那些基于非法搜查令所获得的部分成果”。

不过，法官表示，“搜查令被撤销的事实并不会导致调查终止，也不意味着整个调查过程都是非法的”。

希利亚德表示，他仍需就是否归还蒙巴顿-温莎的财产做出裁决，因为有一项规定允许警方保留非法扣押的财产作为证据。斯蒂芬斯表示，将举行进一步听证会，以确定具体有哪些证据（如果有的话）将被剔除。

“法官将根据该证据是否可能具有证明力来做出决定，”斯蒂芬斯说。“但当然，其他国家的情况非常不同。例如在美国，如果你拥有非法搜查令的成果，那么所有这些证据都会被剔除。但在英国并非如此，所以我们在这里还需要进行几轮交锋。”

法官表示，这些搜查令是非法的，因为签发搜查令的法官没有考虑被扣押的物品是否受法律特权或另一种被称为“特殊程序材料”的保护。

泰晤士河谷警方在一份声明中表示，其接受搜查令必须被撤销，但表示调查仍在继续。

查尔斯三世国王去年剥夺了其弟弟的王子头衔，旨在保护王室其他成员免受蒙巴顿-温莎与爱泼斯坦联系所带来的持续负面影响。

卫星图像揭示加沙之痛的规模

加沙地带代尔巴拉赫 —— 这或许是以色列在过去三年军事行动中给加沙地带造成的最触目惊心的创伤：曾有25万人居住的拉法市已被抹除。

卫星图像显示，以色列军队系统性地将这座南部城市以及其他城镇和地区夷为平地，并在某些地方将瓦砾铲除。自一年前以色列与哈马斯达成停火协议以来，使用推土机和炸药的拆除工作从未停止，与此同时，军方巩固了其对目前控制领土中 60% 以上区域的掌控。

对于加沙地带 200 万 Palestinians 来说，被撕裂的地貌仅仅是重重创伤中的一个。自武装分子 Oct. 7, 2023, 袭击以色列南部，以色列发起摧毁哈马斯的行动以来，他们一直承受着这些苦难。

在加沙战前人口中，每 10 人中就有超过 1 人被以色列的火力杀害或受伤。虽然几乎每个家庭都在哀悼死者或照顾伤员，但大多数人还不得不多次搬迁以逃离战斗和以色列的撤离命令。由于几乎所有人口都失去了家园，这片沿海领土现在实际上成为了世界上人口最稠密的帐篷城市之一。破旧的帆布和尼龙遮蔽棚覆盖了海滩以及以前的农用地和空地。

在可预见的未来，情况可能不会有太大改变。

虽然停火协议停止了攻势和最猛烈的轰炸，但以色列几乎每天都会袭击帐篷、汽车和建筑物，并称这些打击的目标是哈马斯成员 —— 但这些袭击经常导致妇女、儿童和其他家庭成员死亡。

人们不再需要四处逃难，但很少有人能重建房屋，因为以色列禁止大多数建筑材料进入加沙。停火协议中关于大规模重建加沙的计划从未启动，因为以色列和哈马斯未能就该武装组织的缴械问题达成协议。

与此同时，巴勒斯坦人与悲剧搏斗。

September 2024, 以色列军队袭击了位于努赛拉特中部难民营的家中，纳杰瓦·阿布·埃塔失去了她 7 岁的女儿，另外三个孩子在袭击中受伤。阿布·埃塔失去了一只眼睛，她的脸部仍然严重受损且留有疤痕，并且呼吸困难。

战前她是一名美发师，现在她没有工作，住在自家房屋废墟旁的帐篷里。她说，最糟糕的是，她的孩子们被她的脸吓到了，不敢看她。

“我 4 岁的儿子对我说：‘妈妈，我给你一只我的眼睛。’ 在内心深处，我在哭泣，”她说。

加沙的人口被挤在仅占该微小领土约 $40% 的区域内，其余部分由以色列军队控制。Planet Labs PBC 的卫星图像显示，在以色列控制区域内，绝大多数建筑物已被推土机推平或炸成瓦砾堆，其中大部分发生在一年前大规模战斗结束之后。

以色列军方表示，拆除建筑物是为了防止哈马斯武装分子利用这些建筑，或为了摧毁该组织的隧道网络。

但一名联合国任命的专家在 2 月的一份报告中表示，加沙平民住房和基础设施被破坏的规模“即使按照 20 世纪以来现代战争的恐怖标准来看也是前所未有的”。

该报告警告称，这可能构成危害人类罪，或达到种族灭绝的程度，根据国际法，种族灭绝包括“故意施加旨在导致身体毁灭的生活条件”。

以色列否认种族灭绝的指控，称其目标是与平民区域交织在一起的哈马斯武装分子及其基础设施。

Planet Labs 的影像显示，在以色列控制的加沙地区内至少建立了 50 个以色列军事前哨，其中至少 18 个是在停火开始后建设的。许多前哨被安置在原有的社区之上，而附近被摧毁建筑的碎片已被清理干净。

拉法的大部分地区在停火前已被夷为平地，但影像显示部队仍在拆除少数剩余的建筑。几栋被遗弃的联合国大楼得以幸存，此外还有一座市政体育场，现在看来那里包含一个军事基地。

在南部城镇巴尼苏海拉（Bani Suheila）曾经的主要十字路口，现在也矗立着一个新基地。该镇在过去一年中被夷为平地，如今成了一片荒原，曾经的街道变成了如蜘蛛网般交错的土路。

卫星影像显示，在北部的贾巴利亚（Jabaliya），al-Awda 医院综合体的绝大部分在近几个月内被化为瓦砾，一些由联合国运营的学校建筑也是如此。贾巴利亚曾是加沙地带最大的难民营所在地，在一个建筑密集的城市区域内居住着约 120,000 名难民和数万名其他居民。

现在，少数依然屹立的建筑之一是八角形的印度尼西亚医院，自部队在 2025. 6 月将其关闭后，该医院一直处于空置状态。以色列军队在附近建立了一个新基地。

援助物资和商业产品的增加使加沙从去年部分地区出现的饥荒中恢复过来，此前以色列曾对食品和其他商品实施了为期数月的禁令。但大多数人口仍然依赖国际救援。工作机会很少，大多与市场销售相关。

沙迪·巴拉维（Shadi Barawi），35, 在战争初期失去了父亲。不久之后，巴拉维被加沙城家中附近的一次袭击产生的碎片击中，导致腿部被截肢——他是战争留下的约 6,000 名截肢者之一。

在失去腿后，“我对生活失去了所有希望，”他说。但他说，他是自己六口之家以及五个姐妹的唯一支柱。

战前他是一名理发师，现在他重新开始理发以赚取一些钱。由于没有假肢，他在工作时依靠拐杖支撑平衡，工作地点就在他居住的同一个帐篷里。

“我只有一条腿，”他说。“我可能给三个顾客理完发，然后就会感到疲倦，停止并休息，但之后我会继续工作。”

数千具尸体仍埋在被以色列袭击摧毁的建筑之下。停火以来，加沙当局一直在各个地点寻找他们。

上周，一支搜寻小组来到了哈宁·阿尔-科达里（Haneen al-Khodari）位于加沙城的家中。

她说，当她的建筑在 2023, 12 月被击中时，她被甩到附近的一棵树上，在医院住了几周后，她被告知她的父母、兄弟姐妹以及许多表亲都被杀死了。自那时起，其中 17 人的尸体一直被困在残骸之下。

但在废墟中挖掘了八小时后，搜寻小组仅找回了一名儿童的遗骸和两块骨头。其余人员的搜寻工作被取消了。

阿尔-科达里坐在路边，希望破灭。

她面前地面上的一张塑料布里装着他们找到的东西，上面贴着“混合骨骼”的标签。

乌克兰方面称俄罗斯袭击公共巴士导致至少30人死亡

乌克兰基辅 —— 当局周四表示，一枚俄罗斯制导炸弹在乌克兰东部一辆载满乘客的公共巴士旁爆炸，造成30人死亡。此次袭击是一系列攻击的一部分，这些攻击还加剧了首都的停电情况。

周晨的袭击发生在乌克兰顿涅茨克地区饱受战争蹂躏的克拉马托尔斯克市的一个巴士站旁，导致该地区的公共交通暂停运行。

该市军政管理部门负责人奥列克桑德尔·贡恰连科表示：“毫无疑问，俄罗斯在冷酷地针对平民。”他补充说，随后的俄罗斯小型无人机袭击阻碍了救援工作。

在莫斯科发动全面入侵 $4 \frac{1}{2}$ 年多以来，俄罗斯和乌克兰陷入了远程空战，而两国的军队在前线基本处于僵持状态。

俄罗斯在最近几周升级了空中袭击，在乌克兰准备迎接冬季之际向其施压，并打击维持其饱受战争摧残的经济运转的基础设施。

最近的目标包括能源系统、关键工业、铁路、邮局、购物中心、电信网络、加油站和粮食出口。

周四的袭击发生在前一天俄罗斯的一次导弹袭击之后，那次袭击在乌克兰北部的普里卢基镇造成22人死亡，其中包括五名儿童。救援人员当时正在搜寻一栋住宅楼的废墟。至少54人受伤。由于找不到其他住处，几名幸存者在严重受损的公寓中睡觉。

乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基周四与访问该国的英国外交大臣埃德·米利班德一同前往普里卢基，后者宣布了对俄罗斯的新制裁。

泽连斯基呼吁北约国家提供额外的防御支持。

他在一篇网络帖子中写道：“重要的是，口头支持要转化为乌克兰国防新方案的具体形式。提供反弹道能力、战斗机弹药以及对拦截机的投资——所有这些都在直接帮助每天挽救生命。”

乌克兰能源公司 DTEK 表示，国家电网运营商 Ukrenergo 已下令在基辅实施紧急停电。

在这些停电期间，全国范围内按计划进行的常规轮流停电将被停止。

由于莫斯科持续加强袭击强度，官员们敦促家庭准备应急包，储存饮用水并维持备用电源。

同样在周四，乌克兰表示其部队袭击了位于莫斯科以东约 750 英里的萨拉瓦特市的一座大型炼油厂综合体。

乌克兰总参谋部将该综合体描述为俄罗斯最大的炼油和石化设施之一。该说法无法得到独立证实。

乌克兰无人机还抵达了俄罗斯西西伯利亚的鄂木斯克地区，距离乌克兰边境 1,240 英里以上。

鄂木斯克州州长维塔利·霍岑科表示，大多数无人机被防空系统击落，但有一架“抵达了一个北部工业中心”。

他没有详细说明。

俄罗斯独立新闻机构 Astra 报道称，袭击后鄂木斯克炼油厂起火。

该报道尚未得到官方确认。

媒体律师请求法院协助防止特朗普禁止进入白宫

华盛顿 —— 三家新闻机构的一名律师周四告诉一名联邦法官，必须阻止特朗普政府禁止其记者进入白宫。该律师表示，这一禁令是典型的“观点歧视”，旨在惩罚人们的言论，并侵犯了这些媒体机构的宪法第一修正案权利。

此次听证会是特朗普政府与新闻媒体之间不断升级的冲突中的最新进展，这种冲突在其总统第二任期内的各个领域激烈展开。然而，其核心在于多个关于言论自由的问题。这场争端导致白宫和五角大楼的记者受到制裁和限制，并引发了多起正在联邦法院系统中审理的诉讼。

美国地方法院法官蒂莫西·凯利（Timothy Kelly）表示，他打算在周二之前（可能更早）就是否延长此前恢复 MS NOW、CNN 和 Politico 记者进入白宫权限的命令做出裁决。如果批准这些新闻机构申请的初步禁令，将在诉讼解决前维持现状——即保留进入权限。

由共和党总统唐纳德·特朗普提名就职的凯利法官并未透露其裁决意向，但将政府的关键论点描述为“困难重重”且“难以成立”。该法官还要求政府律师具体说明政府所声称涉及的国家安全担忧。

“我们一直很明确，这不仅仅是国家安全问题，”司法部律师迈克尔·韦尔奇克（Michael Velchik）表示，他认为虚假报道会影响政策并对国家安全产生不利影响。在谈到特朗普时，韦尔奇克说：“如果他确实该被批评，他不介意负面新闻报道。他反感的是传播可验证的谎言。”

媒体原告方的律师西奥多·布特罗斯（Theodore Boutrous）表示，政府仍在继续歧视其不喜欢观点和报道。

“他不喜欢他的政策受到审查，不喜欢那些报道，他想要更多正面报道，”布特罗斯在法庭上说道。他表示，这是基于内容的言论限制，且明显违反了第一修正案。

韦尔奇克表示，白宫对被禁新闻机构报道不满的部分问题包括“并非实际说出的话”、使用匿名来源以及通过剪辑采访来插入与受访者被问到的不同问题。他说：“我认为我们已经为每家媒体确定了具体的指控。”

此次听证会通过一个公共访问号码向媒体和公众开放，但音频经常模糊且难以听清。

该案件自上个月开始审理，就在特朗普以反对其报道为由，禁止这些机构进入白宫区域后不久。

这些新闻机构希望在整个案件解决前获得更长期的救济，而一项临时限制令原定于周四到期。但法官将其延长至周二，并表示他打算在那之前就是否发布初步禁令做出裁决。

在凯利法官面前的这次听证会发生在 CNN、MS NOW 和 Politico 突然被驱逐出白宫区域近三周之后，当时总统谴责他们是“假新闻”。CNN 的一名发言人表示，该网络已被允许在周二履行其采访池（pool）职责，下次计划时间为周日。

尽管记者们根据凯利的命令被允许返回，但政府继续选择性地将 CNN 排除在白宫广播采访池的职责之外。

特朗普坚持认为，他没有义务允许那些发布他不喜欢的报道的新闻机构进入白宫区域。

“就白宫而言，它是人民的房子，”司法部长托德·布兰奇（Todd Blanche）最近在 ABC 电视台上表示，援引了政府自始至终一直持有的论点，“在那里（报道）是一项特权，而非一项权利。”

新闻机构则表示，这种做法违反了宪法中保护言论自由和正当程序的修正案。

特朗普助手协助亲俄政党

在共和党前景仍不明朗之际，顾问们前往巴尔干地区

作者：Kenneth P. Vogel 《纽约时报》

华盛顿 —— 上周，当唐纳德·特朗普总统在全国各地奔波，试图帮助他的政党避免在下个月的中期选举中遭遇惨败时，他的两名顶级政治顾问正身处巴尔干地区，帮助一个寻求加强权力掌控的亲俄政府。

据四名要求匿名的知情人士透露，詹姆斯·布莱尔（James Blair）和克里斯·拉西维塔（Chris LaCivita）在波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那一个名为塞族共和国（Republika Srpska）的小型自治领土度过了过去几天的部分时间，随后该地在周日举行了选举。两人目前正为特朗普的政治运作领导一项资金雄厚的中期选举广告活动。

此次参与是特朗普顾问从海外极右翼政治人物身上获利的最新案例，这些政治人物在违背国际社会意愿的同时，一直寻求美国总统的青睐。

据两名知情人士透露，布莱尔和拉西维塔分别通过一家总部位于华盛顿的律师事务所获得了数十万美元的报酬，该律所受塞族共和国政府聘请，就投票问题提供咨询。

在该政党的控制下，塞族共和国在投入巨资争取特朗普及其支持者的同时，与俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京结盟。

特朗普的盟友一直推崇该政党对基督教保守主义的拥护及其对加入欧盟的抵制。

在周日选举之前的准备阶段，该政党曾警告称，投票机的首次启用可能会威胁到其权力地位，而特朗普及其盟友一直将此类投票机错误地归咎为他在 2020 年总统大选中失败的原因。

据报道，周日的投票过程中出现了一些延迟和技术问题。但该民族主义政党最终取得了决定性的胜利。

据媒体报道，在周日晚些时候的胜利演说中，该政党领导人、直到近期仍担任塞族共和国独裁总统的米洛拉德·多迪克（Milorad Dodik）感谢了普京的支持，并将特朗普 2024 年的胜利归功于创造了有利的政治环境。

塞族共和国政府未就相关工作或报酬的置评请求做出回应。

与美国总统有联系的政治顾问、律师和说客向外国政府和竞选活动提供服务并不罕见。

但值得注意的是，布莱尔和拉西维塔于周一从塞族共和国返回，而此次行程发生之时，他们正扮演着特朗普团队的关键角色，致力于限制民主党的收益并维持共和党对国会的控制。

布莱尔曾任特朗普 2024 年竞选活动的政治总监，他在春季离开了白宫副办公厅主任的职务，转而管理 MAGA Inc.。这是一个由特朗普支持的超级政治行动委员会，预计将利用截至 8 月底账户中拥有的 4.15亿美元 资金，投入巨资帮助共和党候选人。特朗普 2024 年竞选活动的共同经理拉西维塔则是 MAGA Inc. 的高级顾问。

MAGA Inc. 的发言人亚历克斯·普法伊费尔（Alex Pfeiffer）拒绝就此次巴尔干之行发表评论。

但他表示，在旅途中，布莱尔和拉西维塔依然参与该政治行动委员会的中期选举工作。

布莱尔和拉西维塔并非唯一接受报酬帮助塞族共和国政府的特朗普盟友。

根据提交给美国司法部（DOJ）的记录，自去年年初以来，与特朗普及其共和党盟友有联系的说客和操盘手已从塞族共和国政府处获得超过 400万美元 的报酬。

这场影响力活动在去年年底取得了重大胜利，当时特朗普政府取消了对多迪克及其家人和助手们的制裁。

这些制裁最初是在奥巴马政府的最后几天对多迪克实施的。在特朗普政府的第一任期内，这些制裁继续有效，并在拜登政府期间得到了补充。

这些制裁是对多迪克破坏美国支持的《代顿协议》和平协议的惩罚。该协议签署于 1995 年，结束了 20 世纪 90 年代前南斯拉夫境内波斯尼亚穆斯林、塞尔维亚人和克罗地亚人之间血腥的教派冲突。它将绝大多数为塞尔维亚人和基督徒的塞族共和国确立为波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那两个政治分区之一。此外，它还创建了一个管理波斯尼亚的三方总统制，由一名塞尔维亚人（多迪克的政党在上周日的选举中保留了该席位）、一名穆斯林（被称为波斯尼亚克人）和一名克罗地亚人组成。

几十年来，多迪克一直是塞族共和国占据主导地位的政治人物。他曾被认为是一个能够缓解教派紧张局势的温和派，但随着他日益拥抱塞尔维亚民族主义和莫斯科，他在国际社会中的声望大幅下降。

多迪克的盟友试图将他塑造为某种“巴尔干地区的特朗普”。他们将他描述为同样遭受政治起诉的受害者——正如特朗普声称他及其盟友所面临的那样——并且将其塑造为一个愿意与华盛顿达成有利交易的人。

多迪克还因不服从监督《代顿协议》的国际机构而被波斯尼亚法院系统定罪，导致他去年被免除总统职务并被禁止担任公职。

总部位于柏林的智库“欧洲稳定倡议”（European Stability Initiative）分析师阿德南·塞里马吉奇（Adnan Cerimagic）表示，特朗普盟友的支持以及制裁的取消，帮助多迪克及其政党顶住了本可能削弱他的国内和国际压力。

阿肯色州广告引发保守派抵制

阿肯色州小石城 —— 阿肯色州州长莎拉·哈卡比·桑德斯 (Sarah Huckabee Sanders) 发布的一段新视频采用了典型的共和党宣传口径，旨在推广该州针对医疗补助 (Medicaid) 领取者实施的更严格规定。她表示，身体健康的成年人不能在享受纳税人资助的医疗服务时无所事事 —— 他们需要工作。

然而，上周，将一名失业的啃老族塑造为一名叫布拉德 (Brad)、一边吃芝士球一边玩游戏的白人年轻男性的决定，激怒了一些保守派评论人士。在候选人罗纳德·里根 (Ronald Reagan) 将“福利女王”（指不工作却过着奢侈生活的人）这一刻板印象普及化五十年之后，这些人想知道为什么视频中没有用一名黑人女性来代替。

保守派作家马特·沃尔什 (Matt Walsh) 发帖称，共和党没有勇气“让‘沙尼夸’ (Shaniqua) 扮演这个反派”，并补充道，“尽管那样其实才是对当前问题准确的刻画。”

联邦主义者 (Federalist) 网站的联合创始人肖恩·戴维斯 (Sean Davis) 写道，“几十年来，我们的政府一直在系统性地歧视白人男性，而现在竟然有胆量不诚实地将年轻白人男性嘲讽为‘福利女王’。”

至于该视频讨论的是医疗补助而非社会福利，或者阿肯色州大多数医疗补助领取者是白人，这些都不重要。《厌恶政治与“福利女王”的公共身份》一书的作者安吉-玛丽·汉考克 (Ange-Marie Hancock) 表示，这次愤怒提醒人们，旧有的刻板印象在某些选民心中是“长期根深蒂固”的形象。

她认为，阿肯色州的这段视频本意应该是为了吸引那些家中养着失业成年子女的老年选民。

但汉考克表示，保守派只能关注种族问题，因为“黑人滥用福利”这一观念在过去几十年里一直对他们有效。

她说：“更长久的种族和性别历史实际上指向这样一种观念，即非裔美国人是懒惰的，他们不去做正确的事。”

这场席卷社交媒体的争论，是保守派近期在种族主义观点上陷入纠结的最新例证。

上个月，一名名为博·弗伦奇 (Bo French) 的德克萨斯州政治候选人发布了一张非白人学生在德克萨斯大学橄榄球赛上欢呼的照片，并称“现在的问题显然比任何人想象的都要糟糕得多”。

一些共和党人谴责了弗伦奇的帖子，而那些担心国家人口结构变化的人则对此表示认同。

桑德斯今年正在竞选连任，她的竞选经理乔丹·鲍威尔 (Jordan Powell) 表示，她“支持该广告”。

鲍威尔在电子邮件声明中表示：“我们绝不能没收勤劳的阿肯色州人的钱，将其白白交给那些单纯选择完全不工作的人。”

“福利女王”神话可追溯至 1976 年

“福利女王”这一刻板印象经常被用来推动对公共援助计划的限制。

在 1976 年竞选总统未果期间，里根曾抱怨芝加哥有一名女性利用“80 个姓名、30 个地址、12 张社会保障卡”来钻制度漏洞。这个故事经过了润色，但在 1980 年入主白宫后，里根致力于重塑公共援助计划。

《性别审判：女性如何在流行文化中被中心化与沉默化》（The Judgment of Gender: How Women are Centered and Silenced in Pop Culture）一书的作者艾莉森·巴特勒（Allison Butler）表示，这场辩论延续了一个强大的神话，即有色人种女性在窃取政府援助。

巴特勒说：“当你解构那个叙事并试图寻找其来源时……根本没有哪个有色人种女性是因为不愿找工作而拥有多台电视机和一辆梅赛德斯-奔驰汽车的。”

全美有色人种协进会（NAACP）阿肯色州分会主席巴里·杰斐逊（Barry Jefferson）谴责了桑德斯的广告，认为该广告将低收入人群简化为一种刻板印象，将贫困视为一种缺陷。他说，这忽略了导致低收入人群（无论种族如何）难以自食其力的复杂因素。

杰斐逊说：“我们不应该因为有人寻求帮助且不符合你的标准就背叛他们。”

剖析医疗补助（Medicaid）使用者的统计数据

医疗补助（Medicaid）创建于 1965 年，是一项联邦与州政府共同资助的医疗保险计划，为收入有限的人员提供免费或低成本的医疗覆盖，包括老年人、儿童或无法工作的残障成年人。根据 Medicaid.gov 网站的数据，截至 6 月，约有 6600 万 人参加了医疗补助。

根据研究机构 KFF 的 2024 年数据，在出生至 64 岁之间的受益人中，白人占比超过 38%。黑人占比近 19%。

根据唐纳德·特朗普总统 2025 年的减税与政策法案，今年全美范围内针对部分医疗补助受益人的工作要求有所增加。包括阿肯色州在内的少数几个共和党领导的州，为了防止欺诈，采取了超出法律要求的措施，包括要求那些因医疗原因过于虚弱而无法工作的人提供更多证明文件。

7 月，桑德斯初步启动了一项强制要求，规定 19 至 64 岁的健康人员每月必须工作、志愿服务或就学至少 80 小时，才能留在阿肯色州“我的健康与机遇”医疗补助计划（ARHOME）中。

在阿肯色州设有办事处的政治咨询与民意调查公司 Impact Management Group 的管理合伙人罗伯特·库恩（Robert Coon）表示，福利工作要求政策在阿肯色州通常受到支持。

但库恩表示，暗示广告中的人物应该是黑人的做法是“公开的种族主义”且“不准确的”。

根据州人类服务部门的最新数据，ARHOME 的领取者中约 60% 是白人，约 18% 是黑人。

为什么黑人群体对救助的需求率通常更高

关于美国黑人与公共援助的右翼言论，往往忽略了数代人的结构性种族主义如何造成经济差距，从而导致他们在这些计划中的参与比例过高。

总体而言，使用医疗补助（Medicaid）和补充营养援助计划（SNAP，即食品券）等社会服务计划的黑人人数少于白人。但黑人约占美国人口的 13%，在所有种族群体中，其代表比例的超额程度最高。他们在医疗补助和 SNAP 受助者中分别占 18.5% 和 25%。

这些统计数据反映了贫困黑人社区在试图摆脱贫困并积累代际财富时所面临的艰难道路。

阿肯色州民主党国会候选人克里斯·琼斯（Chris Jones）是黑人，他成长于一个依赖食品券的家庭。他在一份声明中表示，福利领取者并非在“寻找逃避工作的方法”，而是在“寻找前进的道路”。

琼斯表示，更大的问题不在于种族，而在于“为什么这么多努力工作的人仍然难以负担起杂货、住房、医疗保健和生活基本必需品”。

新闻简报

在希腊，鲁比奥拒绝就大使涉嫌不当行为发表评论

来自新闻服务机构

希腊雅典 —— 美国国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥（Marco Rubio）周四断然拒绝就一份报告发表评论，该报告指称美国驻希腊大使金伯利·吉尔福伊尔（Kimberly Guilfoyle）在就任之前存在不当且可能违法的行为。

与此同时，副总统 JD 范斯（JD Vance）表示，他“并不喜欢”美国官员要求他人偿还债务以换取接触其他政府官员机会的想法，但在了解所有细节之前，他拒绝进一步评论。

在访问希腊期间，鲁比奥告诉记者，他不会讨论《华尔街日报》报道中的指控。该报道称，吉尔福伊尔在确认听证会之前，曾要求一名唐纳德·特朗普总统的捐赠者兼支持者支付一笔 $100,000 的信用卡账单，并承诺如果对方这样做，将允许其接触政府官员。

他在离开希腊前发表了讲话，呼吁欧洲国家回归他所描述的文明之根。

鲁比奥表示，他已知晓周三晚些时候的《华尔街日报》报道，但他不知道报道是否属实，且不会对此发表评论。

“你们到处走动，认为只要某个消息源告诉了你们某些事情并且你们报道了，那就是真理。这不是真理。对我来说这不是真理。这不是我们做事的方式，”他在飞机舱门口说道，当时吉尔福伊尔也在场送他离开希腊。

在周三与希腊外交部长的联合新闻发布会上，鲁比奥表示在访问外国期间不会讨论这些指控，但他补充道：“只需说我们的使馆在这里工作出色。我们的大使在这里一直是一位强有力的大使。”

众议院外交事务委员会和参议院外交关系委员会的两名最高级别民主党人已要求对吉尔福伊尔展开调查，但鲁比奥未透露是否准备启动调查。

国会民主党人此前已经在调查《日报》上月报道的指控，该报道称吉尔福伊尔在担任美国驻希腊最高使节期间行为不当。

《日报》报道称，吉尔福伊尔在一次招待会上告诉宾客，美国如果愿意，可以削弱希腊政府；她还推销了一家特定希腊建筑和能源公司的商业利益，并允许该公司的说客参加私人外交会议。

学校抗议：周四在巴黎巴士底广场的一次集会上，抗议者在一次关于学习条件的全国性运动中保护自己免受水炮攻击。自 9 月下旬以来，学生们封锁了数百所学校的入口，抱怨教师缺勤、课表过载以及其他不满。KENZO TRIBOUILLARD / GETTY-AFP

吉尔福伊尔曾是福克斯新闻频道（Fox News Channel）的主持人和加利福尼亚州检察官，曾与特朗普之子小唐纳德（Donald Jr.）订婚。她否认有任何不当行为，鲁比奥此前也曾为她辩护。

公开行刑队：五角大楼表示，在国防部长皮特·海格塞斯（Pete Hegseth）称此次执行将是“公开”的之后，对胡德堡枪击者尼达尔·马利克·哈桑（Nidal Malik Hasan）的行刑队处决将进行直播。

海格塞斯周三在保守派电视媒体 Real America's Voice News 上表示，对持有少校军衔的陆军精神科医生哈桑的处决将于 12 月 3 在德克萨斯州的胡德堡进行。

哈桑因 2009 年在军事基地的一次枪击事件中杀害 13 人并导致 32 人受伤而被定罪。

“我们将确保人们能够观看，确保它是公开的，”海格塞斯说。

五角大楼官员周四澄清，处决将通过直播进行，更多细节将随后公布。

哈桑走进一栋医疗大楼，当时士兵们正排长队等待接种疫苗并获得部署的医疗许可。他大喊“Allahu akbar”（阿拉伯语，意为“真主至大！”），并使用一把带有激光瞄准器的手枪开火。

军事法专家表示，哈桑可以选择抵制执行死刑，并在民事法院提交人身保护令申请，这可能会显著推迟执行日期。

空军基地嫌疑人：当局周四表示，一名 22 岁的英国男子在英国一个由美国运营的军事空军基地发生安全事件后，因涉嫌策划恐怖袭击被捕，现已获保释释放。

该嫌疑人未公开姓名，是此次针对费尔福德皇家空军基地（RAF Fairford）疑似阴谋调查中第七名获保释的男子。美国轰炸机曾利用该基地对伊朗发动袭击。

英国当局已将德黑兰与此次事件联系起来，该事件导致美国于周日将其轰炸机从费尔福德皇家空军基地撤离。

黑客案件：美国联邦调查局（FBI）没收了一组黑客使用的扫描和网络钓鱼工具。官员称，该黑客组织与中国政府有关，并负责在美国及其海外开展破坏性网络行动，目标包括电力行业、学术界和关键基础设施。

FBI 和美国司法部（DOJ）周三宣布没收这些工具，这代表了近年来执法部门打击私营部门称为“亚麻台风”（Flax Typhoon）的大规模黑客行动的最新努力。

这些工具被用于攻击包括一家未具名的美国电力公司、日本和波兰的机场、台湾大学、一家跨国非政府组织以及台湾的关键基础设施公司在内的实体。

这些工具由一家总部位于中国的信息安全公司——诚信技术集团（Integrity Technology Group）操作。FBI 表示，该公司与中国政府关系密切，且正是“亚麻台风”的真实身份。

田纳西州枪击事件：当局表示，周四在田纳西州最大城市的一座联邦法院繁忙入口内侧，一名携带手枪和刀具的男子被一名安保人员开枪击毙。

纳什维尔大都会警察局发言人唐·亚伦（Don Aaron）表示，这名 40 多岁的男子在上午 9:30 左右试图开枪但失败了，随后掏出了一把刀。

“安保人员向该武装人员开火，”亚伦说，并补充道该男子在医院被宣布死亡。

该男子来自外州。调查人员目前尚不清楚他为何出现在法院，亚伦表示，对其车辆的搜查未发现“任何威胁性物品”。

法院访客必须通过安检点，这是所有联邦法院的常规做法。入口处通常由美国法警局（U.S. Marshals Service）签约的武装前警员把守。

由于此次事件，隔壁的图书馆被关闭，警犬员在周边巡逻，附近建筑的工作人员聚集在一起观看。

俄罗斯研究实验室：一名俄罗斯官员周四试图就 10 月 2 日西伯利亚一家鼠疫研究实验室一名工作人员的可疑死亡事件翻篇，称隔离和其他预防措施已经完成，未检测到危险病原体。

伊尔库茨克州州长伊戈尔·科布泽夫（Igor Kobzev）发表的这一声明是在世界卫生组织要求俄罗斯提供更多关于伊尔库茨克西伯利亚抗鼠疫研究所工作人员死亡事件的信息之后发表的，该事件此前引发了全球关注。

科布泽夫的声明没有提供关于该女性肺炎具体原因以及她接触过何种病原体的细节。他也没有明确表示她的死亡并非由肺鼠疫引起。

他还表示，她已经接种了疫苗，并且对她在研究所接触的病原体具有免疫力。

宇航员乘组在太空停留237天后在加利福尼亚海岸着陆

作者：马西亚·邓恩 (Marcia Dunn) 美联社 (ASSOCIATED PRESS)

佛罗里达州卡纳维拉尔角 ——周四，四名人员从国际空间站返回地球。他们在八个月前匆忙前往空间站，以接替一名患病同事及其乘组。

SpaceX将这四名来自美国、法国和俄罗斯的飞行员带回，在加利福尼亚附近的太平洋海域溅落。

美国国家航空航天局（NASA）的杰西卡·梅尔 (Jessica Meir) 和杰克·哈撒韦 (Jack Hathaway)、法国的索菲·阿德诺 (Sophie Adenot) 以及俄罗斯的安德烈·费佳耶夫 (Andrey Fedyaev) 于周三离开轨道实验室，渴望在长时间的分离后与家人团聚。由于舱体维修，他们的接替者延迟三周抵达，导致该乘组的回家行程被推迟。

他们迫不及待地想感受脸上的微风，洗个澡，而对于阿德诺来说，至少还包括重新投入水上运动。

她在轨道上停留的237天创下了欧洲空间局的耐力记录。

“在国际空间站完成一次不可思议的任务后，能回到地球，我们感到非常兴奋，”梅尔在溅落后不久通过无线电说道。在仍在轨道上时，她说乘组人员有着“许多复杂且交织的情绪”，并且会想念“家园行星的非凡景色”。

四人在一小时内全部离开了舱体，在SpaceX的回收船上挥手并挥拳欢呼。在乘坐直升机抵达岸边后，他们将前往休斯顿。

梅尔及其乘组于2月离开地球，接替四名提前返回的空间站人员，此前其中一人——现已退休的NASA人员迈克尔·芬克 (Mike Fincke) 患病。这是NASA在65年人类航天飞行史上的首次医疗撤离。

两个月后，这四名新成员自豪地目睹了阿尔忒弥斯2号 (Artemis II) 的宇航员绕月飞行。他们还在空间站庆祝了美国的250岁生日，梅尔用她的短笛加入了波士顿流行乐团 (Boston Pops) 参加7月4日的音乐会。

梅尔参加了四次太空行走，而阿德诺为了对这座拥有28年历史的前哨站进行维护和升级，三次冒险出舱。

在繁重的工作之余，宇航员们也找到了娱乐时间，上个月举办了一场舞蹈派对，并定期进行烹饪演示，期间还穿上了围裙并戴上了厨师帽。

梅尔制作了一段针对像她一样拥有卷发的太空女性的教学视频，而哈撒韦则将他那浓密的胡须（在太空中十分罕见）修剪得完美无瑕。他在进入轨道前留了这种海军飞行员风格的胡须，以表达对海军纽带的致敬，并发现在失重状态下维护胡须并不比在地球上更难。一些地面控制员为了表示支持也留起了胡须。

既然任务已经结束，他的胡须会消失吗？

“这在上面某种程度上成了我的个人品牌，”哈撒韦在8月表示，“所以我不知道它会立即消失，还是我会把它保留一段时间。”

目前空间站上仍有七名宇航员，分别代表美国、俄罗斯和加拿大。根据NASA的统计，自2000, 开放以来，这座前哨站已迎来来自26个国家的298名访客。

SpaceX目前正准备在下周进行一次空间站补给任务。埃隆·马斯克 (Elon Musk) 的公司将发射超过6,000磅的货物，包括最后一批系列太阳能电池板组件、马桶泵、太空行走服，以及新鲜水果和其他好物。

陆军关于华盛顿特区坠机事故的报告指出系统性失效，并提出改进建议

美联社

美国陆军发现，去年在华盛顿特区附近发生的一起美国航空喷气式飞机与“黑鹰”直升机空中相撞事故的背后存在系统性的安全崩溃，并建议采取相关措施以防止未来的悲剧。

这份陆军报告于5月完成，在受害者家属数月的压力下于周四公开。报告指出了涉及空中交通管制、直升机航线、培训及安全实践方面的失效。美联社在报告发布前数小时获得了该报告的副本。

这是美国二十多年来最严重的坠机事故。当时，直升机在客机下降接近跑道时与其相撞，导致两架飞机坠入冰冷的波托马克河，造成67人死亡。

陆军报告强调了里根机场的空中交通管制员本可以防止此次事故，但同时也承认了军方自身的失职以及其他促成因素。

蒂姆·利利 (Tim Lilley) 曾是一名陆军“黑鹰”直升机飞行员，其儿子萨姆·利利 (Sam Lilley) 是该客机的副驾驶。他表示，该报告仍有重要问题未得到解答。部分内容被掩盖，且陆军失效的责任被宽泛地归类，而非落实到个人。

“陆军欠家属和美国公众一个完整的交代，即这些风险是如何被允许持续存在的，谁应对允许这些风险持续的决定负责，以及将采取什么措施确保此类事件不再发生，”现任商业喷气机机长的利利说道。

陆军在周四的一份声明中承认了这一点。

声明称：“我们意识到家属需要答案，并承诺在陆军的审查过程中保持透明。”

虽然该报告在很大程度上强化了国家运输安全委员会 (NTSB) 的结论，但民用调查的范围更广，并强调了美国联邦航空管理局 (FAA) 多年来忽视的警告以及薄弱的军事安全文化。

陆军指责空中交通管制员未能向直升机机组提供关于接近客机的更精确信息，且未能向客机飞行员发出直升机的预警。事故发生后，FAA 禁止管制员在繁忙空域依赖飞行员来维持视觉分离。

报告建议将目光移出华盛顿，检查其他大城市的军事直升机运行是否存在类似风险。一名陆军官员表示，针对包括洛杉矶和西雅图-塔科马地区在内的其他城市直升机飞行的审查正在进行中。该官员因未获授权公开讨论此事而要求匿名。

撰写该报告的中将引用了“冲突管理所有层级的崩溃”，但特别指出了两次失败的无线电传输导致直升机机组未能识别出客机。军方飞行员佩戴的夜视镜也限制了他们的视野，使其难以在城市灯光中发现飞机。

设计糟糕的直升机航线导致直升机与在机场次要跑道降落的飞机之间仅有 75 英尺的垂直距离（前提是直升机保持在河岸附近，但航线并未强制要求如此）。这不足以抵消“黑鹰”高度计中公认的误差水平，且 NTSB 发现该直升机的实际飞行高度比仪表读数高出近 100 英尺。

NTSB 在上周致陆军的一封信中表示，对陆军在八项安全建议中落实其中七项的进展感到满意。相比之下，FAA 未能执行大约三分之一针对该机构的建议。

陆军表示，在发现失事的“黑鹰”直升机用于广播位置的 ADS-B Out 系统已失效一段时间后，该部门已加强了直升机机组人员的培训，并对 3,585 架直升机进行了检查和重新配置。

军方还正在改进对安全风险的监测，并与美国联邦航空管理局（FAA）合作，共享关于险些发生事故（close calls）的信息。

美联分赛第四场：白袜队 对阵 守护者队（深夜赛）

焦虑已成常态

白袜队经历了漫长旅程，从近乎无名之辈走向季后赛的聚光灯下

任何在常规赛期间稍加关注的人，对芝加哥白袜队周围的叙事都感到熟悉。

坚韧。苦干。大学氛围。涂着眼黑的灰姑娘。太年轻且太鲁莽，以至于不知道自己本不该成功。

美联分赛

这支球队在缺席的情况下得到了教皇利奥十四世的祝福，并经常被巫师挥舞魔杖点化。他们

保罗·萨利文 在新闻 之后 拿着赢来的钱在玩，所以任何超出季后赛出场的结果都是额外的奖赏。

这是一个关于一支球队克服困难、无视专家并为了集体而克制自我的动人故事。白袜队的投球计划每天都是一个谜，而关于格兰特·泰勒右臂是否会脱臼的担忧，已成为南区酒吧里每晚讨论的话题。

教皇真的能通过与上天沟通，让白袜队进入世界大赛吗？

这些叙事将我们带到了周四晚上的美联分赛第 4 场。在这里，白袜队要么能击败克利夫兰守护者队并晋级，前往佛罗里达州圣彼得堡在美联冠军赛中对阵坦帕湾光芒队——要么将系列赛送回克利夫兰进行第 5 场，让他们的球迷陷入广泛的恐慌模式。

毋庸置疑，没有人相信他们能走到这一步，包括主席杰里·赖因斯多夫。

白袜队在春季训练中被视为弱者，赖因斯多夫周三向芝加哥体育网络的布鲁克·弗莱彻承认，他的猜测“大概是 75 场胜利”，如果他们“运气好”的话，也许能达到 .500 的胜率。在美联中区下半赛季占据榜首期间，白袜队被国家媒体忽视了；在与胜率 .500 的休斯顿太空人队进行外卡赛开始时再次被忽视；随后在美联分赛开始时又是如此。

跑球战术成为关键

但跑卫莫南盖在受伤的情况下能否出战？

作者：菲尔·汤普森 芝加哥论坛报

谈到熊队和包装工队，你永远不能将任何统计数据上的优势视为理所当然。但至少在纸面上，熊队在比赛的一个阶段似乎占据了包装工队的绝对优势：那就是跑球战术。

熊队在周日于兰博球场进行的第 5 周对决中，拥有全联盟第 1 的冲球进攻能力，场均 196.3 码。相反，包装工队的冲球防御排名第 28 位，场均允许 139.3 码。

然而，熊队跑卫教练埃里克·斯图德斯维尔认为对方并没有明显的漏洞。

“（防守）前线令人印象深刻，”他说。“线卫们也非常出色。我认为（线卫）扎伊尔·富兰克林对他们来说是一个很好的补充。（线卫埃杰林）库珀（因跟腱断裂）缺阵情况有所不同，但（以赛亚）麦克杜菲将顶上。他会拼尽全力地比赛。”

“安全卫（埃文·威廉姆斯和泽维尔·麦金尼）以及镍卫（贾冯·布拉德）都是非常优秀的球员，因此我认为这一天对我们来说将是一个巨大的挑战。但如果我们能按照计划执行，我们就将有机会。”

熊队跑卫凯尔·莫南盖和德安德烈·斯威夫特在联盟冲球领先者中分别排名第七和第八，冲球码数分别为 324 码和 311 码。

在符合资格的球员中，莫南盖以每次携带 5.4 码排名第六。

根据 Next Gen Stats 的数据，莫南盖平均仅用 2.50 秒即可到达接球线，这是在至少携带 30 次球的 39 名跑卫中最快的成绩。

“他非常有侵略性且果断，”斯图德斯维尔说。“他擅长纵向切入，同时也是一名强悍、充满力量的跑者，能够利用身体掩护冲刺。他为我们的进攻带来了身体对抗能力，”

伊利诺伊大学篮球队在米尔科维奇康复期间采取谨慎态度

作者：科琳·凯恩 (Colleen Kane) 芝加哥论坛报

伊利诺伊大学男子篮球队主教练布拉德·安德伍德表示，运动训练师贾斯汀·盖姆斯在过去两个月里一直忙得不可开交。

盖姆斯一直在协助大二前锋大卫·米尔科维奇（David Mirković）康复，后者在 8 月份接受了左脚手术。伊利诺伊大学希望在一名被寄予厚望、将成为球队冲击连续第二次进入四强赛核心球员的康复过程中保持谨慎。

但米尔科维奇的拼劲有时会对这一点构成挑战。

“并不容易，”安德伍德周四在罗斯蒙特举行的 Big Ten 篮球媒体日上表示。“米尔科是个竞争者。他想做得更多。他的心态就是努力工作并克服困难。我们不得不多次克制这种倾向。”

“但他确实非常努力，并且完成了所有应该做的事情，我们只需要确保他能继续理解，我们希望他在回归时状态是完全正确的。”

安德伍德表示，米尔科维奇在本周早些时候进行了医生预约，这位身高 6-foot-9 的黑山球员正处于回归前的“自然递增训练阶段”。米尔科维奇一直在使用水下跑步机和反重力跑步机进行训练，但脚伤需要他重新恢复体能。

因此，伊利诺伊大学将继续有计划地推进他的康复工作，距离赛季揭幕战约 3½ 周，距离与杜克大学的焦点对决约 5½ 周。

“我们希望他不再疼痛，”安德伍德说。“我们希望他在回归时处于极佳的状态。我们最不希望看到的是他再次出现任何复发问题。”

米尔科维奇对于伊利诺伊大学本赛季的计划至关重要。

周四，他与安德烈·斯托亚科维奇（Andrej Stojaković）共同成为了媒体日上伊利诺伊大学的代表人物。基顿·瓦格勒（Keaton Wagler）凭借惊艳的新秀赛季带领伊利诺伊大学在 21 年来首次进入四强赛，目前他正随洛杉矶快船队准备 NBA 赛季。老将凯兰·博斯韦尔（Kylan Boswell）和本·胡姆里丘斯（Ben Humrichous）也已离队。

这支队伍由米尔科维奇和斯托亚科维奇领衔，他们被命名为

第三场比赛只有三名记者到场。只有两家当地新闻台——WGN-Ch. 9 和 WLS-Ch. 7 ——派遣了记者前往克利夫兰。而休斯顿或克利夫兰都没有当地的广播记者。但现在所有人都参与进来了，白袜队的更衣室变得越来越拥挤。

尽管如此，这仍然是一个带有淡淡怀旧色彩的温情故事。白袜队甚至唤起了人们的记忆：小联盟球员在赛后与伙伴们在当地的 Dairy Queen 冰淇淋店享用冰淇淋的画面。

“冰淇淋蛋筒能带来好运，”在队友萨姆·安东纳奇（Sam Antonacci）告诉 WGN，他在美联东区除赛（ALDS）第 1 场比赛中，村上宗隆击出月球级本垒打时正在吃冰淇淋的消息传出后，捕手凯尔·蒂尔（Kyle Teel）如此说道。MLB.com 最近的一篇报道标题是：“神奇冰淇淋？白袜队将甜点作为最新的幸运符。”

有了教皇、巫师和神奇冰淇淋，这支球队怎么可能输？

但随后出现了第 3. 场比赛的噩梦，这是白袜队数周来表现最糟糕的比赛之一。以 9-3 输给守护者队的比赛中，白袜队击球手创下了季后赛纪录的 19 次三振，六名白袜队投手共出现了 10 次保送，而蒂尔在人们用谷歌搜索“贝尔蒙特·卡梅利（Belmont Cameli）是谁？”所需的时间里，遭遇了 2 次被浪费的自动球好球判定系统（ABSS）判罚。

这让人想起 1983 年美联冠军赛（ALCS）在旧科米斯基球场对阵巴尔的摩金莺队的第 3, 场比赛。当时白袜队在巴尔的摩打成平手后回到主场，人们的期望值极高。在自 1959 年世界大赛以来首场季后赛主场比赛前，几名球迷在球场周围举着一条床单横幅，上面写着简单的信息：“别搞砸了（Don't F---Up）。”（剧透：白袜队在四场比赛中落败。）

周三大多数售罄的观众离场后，一名孤独的白袜队球迷站在新闻席下方的座位上，对着守护者队和克利夫兰市大声辱骂。不清楚他认为谁能听到，但这似乎并不重要。

有时候，你只需要对着虚无大喊一声。

如果白袜队在 2023-25. 年的任何一个赛季以类似方式输球，没人会眨一下眼。那是他们的默认模式。但在目睹白袜队在季后赛开局四连胜后，人们的希望比以往任何时候都高，而糟糕的表现导致第 3 场比赛结束时出现了一些嘘声。

好消息是，白袜队仍然掌控局面，周四还有一场主场比赛，并且在五局三胜制的系列赛中以 2-1 领先。在克利夫兰的第 5 场比赛是万一再次发生灾难时的后备方案。

人们希望白袜队的牛棚——基本上除了肖恩·伯克（Sean Burke）以外的所有人——在最后一天还有足够的“子弹”。当然，这只是比喻。可以这么说，2023 年落在 Rate Field 看台区并导致两名女性受伤的神秘子弹绝对与这个温馨故事无关，但值得提及，以提醒我们白袜队的叙事发生了多么巨大的变化。

期望值提高了，但棒球就是棒球，没有什么是不可能的。

“这是一项团队运动，”在白袜队 6 月下旬在领先被反超后最终获胜后，安东纳奇告诉 CHSN 的弗莱彻（Fletcher）。“如果你因为第九局丢了两分而生气，那就滚去打网球或从事个人运动吧。”

这是白袜队本赛季最经典的一句话，也是对体育迷普遍多变心态的深刻观察。焦虑是套餐的一部分，所以习惯它就好。

最近在克利夫兰，当我询问安东纳奇关于这段话时，他说有些球迷误解了他的意思，他说讨论团队运动是一种不同的心态。

“在网球中，球场上只有你一个人，”安东纳奇说。“你不需要担心任何人为你搞砸。所有的错误、所有的失误都是你的，而你的成功完全是因为你个人。

“当你报名参加棒球运动时，你必须依赖很多其他人，这就是团队协作的意义所在。有些人脱离语境来理解我的话。我想说的是，你必须与你的团队共同成功或失败。而如果你不喜欢失败，那么在打网球时，你不能将其归咎于他人。”

自从季后赛开始以来，安东纳奇的知名度大幅提升——他已成为白袜队出人意料崛起的一个象征。在1月的 SoxFest 期间，很少有球迷知道他是谁，但现在他是阵容中的指定点火者，也是那个被投球击中后会得意地拍打头盔的“人体皮纳塔”。

安东纳奇被队友们称为“疯子”，在 Game 2 中，由于他在左外野的一次糟糕跑位导致了一次奔跑接球，队友们在休息室里好意地嘲笑了他。如果你不能嘲笑你的朋友，那朋友还有什么意义？

白袜队的这个故事如此精彩，以至于很难被超越。想象一下，作为这些球员中的一员，经历这场从近乎无名到季后赛聚光灯下的漫长而奇特的旅程，心中会有怎样的感受。

“这在某种程度上达到了一个临界点，因为你整个职业生涯都在为此努力，而在经历了今年之后，情况还能好到什么程度？”安东纳奇说。“在未来的几年里，想要超越今年将很难。但你只能活在当下。我正沉浸在这一切之中，这就是我所能要求的一切。”

当你意识到自己为了来到这里走了多远时，很难仅仅活在当下。

但对于白袜队来说，如果要达到他们想要的目标，当下才是唯一真正重要的事情。

白袜队笔记

Rate球场气氛沸腾

作者：LaMond Pope

芝加哥论坛报

在常规赛以及美国联盟分区系列赛的前三场比赛中，白袜队与守护者队共交手 16 次。

两队的分差仅在 1 分之间——守护者队赢了 69 分，白袜队赢了 68 分。

“这太不可思议了，”白袜队经理威尔·维纳布尔在周四于 Rate 球场举行的第四场比赛前谈到这些对决时表示。“我认为我们是截然不同的两支球队，但就每支球队的性格构建而言，很明显双方都有一群优秀的球员，他们以正确的方式比赛。他们非常有天赋，而且打球非常拼。

“观看这些比赛很有趣。过程很艰苦，显然他们竞争意识很强，但我们也同样具有竞争力，这是一场伟大的战斗。不过观看过程确实很有趣，而且很酷的是，这种竞争一直延续到了这次系列赛，让我们有机会继续这场战斗。

“最终会有人带着胜利离开这里，但回顾今年，尤其是我们之间整个赛季的较量，其中一些精彩瞬间确实非常值得观看。”

在五局三胜制的美国联盟分区系列赛（ALDS）周四第四场比赛之前，白袜队以 2-1 领先。

气氛沸腾

维纳布尔认为第三场比赛为第四场比赛提供了一个“非常好的教程”。

“这完全是环境的问题，”维纳布尔说。“我们（周三）讨论过，我们知道这将是一个极度亢奋的环境，我认为这影响了我们。我觉得你们能看出我们追球的情况多了很多。

“我认为那是我们今年追球率最高的一次。我们（周三）的状态有点过快，所以现在我们可以按下重启键，更好地理解这种环境——（守护者队先发投手帕克）梅西克是我们刚刚面对过的对手，我们对他很了解。所以到目前为止，不会有什么秘密，尤其是在环境方面，因为我们（周三）已经体验过了。”

白袜队在第三场比赛中被三振 19 次——这是 MLB 历史上九局制季后赛单场比赛的最高纪录。

“显然，在这样的观众面前比赛，你会变得很亢奋，可能会挥棒击打那些平时不会击打的球，”白袜队外野手特里斯坦·彼得斯说。“我还认为，（周三）进攻端我们击中了几个球，但对方也接住了。这也是困难的一面。我认为我们完成了一些相当不错的打席。

“但是的，也许多一点耐心会有所帮助。”

熟悉的对手

周四是白袜队第六次面对梅西克。这包括在 Progressive 球场举行的第一场比赛，当时这位左投手在 4 $\frac{1}{3}$ 局中被击出 4 支安打，丢 2 分。

在周六 3-0 输给白袜队的比赛中，梅西克完成了 6 次三振和 2 次保送。

“我们见过他很多次了，”彼得斯说。“我认为我们知道他会如何对我们投球。也许他会稍微改变一下，但我们知道他拥有什么样的球路。我对我们的球员很有信心，我们能很好地击中他的球。”

投手丘上

哈根·史密斯认为自己在周三投了 2 / 3 局后可以出战。

“我感觉很好，”这位左投手在赛后表示。

白袜队决定让史密斯在第四场比赛中担任开局投手（opener）。负责后续投球（bulk）的选择包括埃里克·费德和安东尼·凯。史密斯在周三被击出 1 支安打，丢 1 分，有 2 次保送，其中包括第三局被乔·阿德尔击出的三分三垒安打。

“我认为哈根表现不错，”维纳布尔说。“那次保送显然不太好，我们讨论过保送将如何影响这次系列赛。前几场比赛我们侥幸逃过一劫。显然（周三）不行了，全队保送 10 次。关于阿德尔的那棒，我认为阿德尔在反方向覆盖快球方面做得很好。

“我认为哈根看起来状态不错。我认为球路看起来很好。只是在执行力上可能出了一点问题，让他陷入了有点困难的境地。他是我们的核心球员。整个季后赛我们一直依赖他。很高兴他能接球为我们先发。”

洋基队冠军荒延长至17年

作者：Stephen Whyno

美联社

纽约 —— 马克斯·弗里德（Max Fried）被击出两支本垒打，纽约洋基队的一次本垒打因球迷干扰而被取消，随后他们的赛季在周四晚上以一种令人失望的方式落幕。

在第六局下半，安东尼·沃尔佩（Anthony Volpe）原本的一支扳平比分的本垒打在视频回放后被判定为二垒安打，此后洋基队再未能有跑者超过二垒。当先发击球手特伦特·格里舍姆（Trent Grisham）在第九局三振出局结束比赛时，洋基队在美联分区系列赛第三场中以4-3负于坦帕湾光芒队，且整个系列赛被横扫，使洋基队的冠军荒延长至17年。

“失望，”第三场先发投手弗里德说道，“这不是我们想要结束的方式，也不符合我们的预期。”

在美联外卡系列赛中横扫波士顿红袜队后，洋基队在面对光芒队时从未取得领先，且自2020年以来，他们在季后赛中未能击败种子排名更高的球队。

当被问及为什么过去两个赛季都未能突破瓶颈时，极有可能获得美联赛扬奖的卡姆·施利特勒（Cam Schlittler）称这是一个很好的问题，并回答道：“我真的没有答案。”

由于强力击球手亚伦·贾奇（Aaron Judge）受伤缺阵，洋基队在首场比赛中仅击出一次安打且被零封，当时捕手奥斯汀·威尔斯（Austin Wells）在跑垒上的低级失误影响巨大。第二场比赛中出现了四次失误，使球队被推向被淘汰的边缘。

洋基队的乔治·隆巴德二世（George Lombard Jr.，左起）、亚伦·贾奇和保罗·戈尔德施密特（Paul Goldschmidt）周三在洋基体育场举行的美联分区系列赛第三场对阵光芒队的比赛中观看比赛。CALEB BOWLIN / GETTY

洋基队并没有安静地离场 —— 至少起初如此。当弗里德在第三局和第四局各丢一分时，击球手每次都能做出回应并扳平比分。

维克多·梅萨二世（Victor Mesa Jr.）将弗里德投出的第80球，也是最后一球，击成了领先的两分本垒打，这绝非像此前瑞安·维拉德（Ryan Vilade）那样利用短右外野墙击出的本垒打。

“很简单，就是我投了一颗烂球，”弗里德说，“我投高了，对方击出了本垒打，拿了两分，这让比分失去了追赶可能。……我们打了一场非常稳健的比赛，表现足以获胜，不幸的是，我没能尽到我的职责。”

看起来洋基队将在沃尔佩的救赎时刻迅速反击，但一个类似杰弗里·迈尔（Jeffrey Maier）式的瞬间在30年后再次回来困扰主队。

沃尔佩看起来击出了一支飞向左外野的本垒打，裁判在场上也判定为本垒打。视频回放确定球迷确实干扰了球，该球被记录为沃尔佩的一次打入一分（RBI）的二垒安打，但未能计入的那一分最终成为了胜负的关键。

随着洋基体育场的气氛被抽干，在前两次打席中分别击出单打和二垒安打的斯宾塞·琼斯（Spencer Jones）挥棒三振，结束了这次进攻威胁。第八局始于保罗·戈尔德施密特因对方传球失误上垒，终于另一名代打吉安卡洛·斯坦顿（Giancarlo Stanton）三振出局，而这仅是他本季后赛的第二次打席。

“他们对我们的投球很出色，而我们毫无对策，”琼斯说。

斯坦顿在双腿小腿肌肉拉伤导致他自4月24.日起缺阵后，获得了挥棒的机会。贾奇则没有获得同样的机会，由于小腿受伤，他被排除在外卡系列赛和美联分区系列赛的大名单之外。

“这确实很痛苦，”贾奇说，他不愿猜测自己是否能改变结果，“你想在场上。你做了所有的康复，所有的努力，早到，晚走 —— 任何时候受伤，你都会尝试尽快回到赛场。没能有机会在场上战斗确实很痛苦。”

洋基队在本系列赛中的打击率为.130，总得分10-5落后。

布泽利斯的耐心并非易事

公牛队前锋展现出早期成长迹象

芝加哥论坛报

如果马塔斯·布泽利斯想要有所建树，他首先需要能够冲击篮筐。

对于布泽利斯来说，从 3 分线到禁区的距离正开始缩短。那 23 英尺的距离变得更容易掌控，所需的运球更少，步数也更少。在过去的两年里，布泽利斯意识到他所需的空间比他想象的要小，有时一两英尺的呼吸空间就足以让他切入。

这种成长在周三于联合中心举行的对阵菲尼克斯太阳队的季前赛揭幕战开场几秒钟内便清晰可见。

布泽利斯向篮筐移动时展现出更强的决断力。他在掩护后下行或无球切入时的果敢，提供了击败太阳队高压防守所需的半秒优势。而当防守者对他进行身体对抗时，布泽利斯吸收了接触，在尝试完成进攻时在空中保持得更加稳定。

布泽利斯在禁区内得到了 12 分，他仅有的其他得分是两次在冲击篮筐时获得的罚球。不过，他的六次三分线外投篮全部打铁，这是他此次出场中唯一明显的负面表现。

这仅仅是季前赛。没有理由因为几场表演赛的表现而过度乐观。尽管如此，布泽利斯的首次亮相足以引发一些“如果……会怎样”的疑问，这些疑问将在本赛季接下来的时间里伴随这位三年级前锋。

作为一个重建中的球队，公牛队有许多需求。他们需要为卡莱布·威尔逊的职业生涯铺路。他们需要在首年教练蒂亚戈·斯普利特（Tiago Splitter）的带领下建立一种比赛风格。

他们需要弄清楚乔什·吉迪是否适合球队的未来。

但或许在这个赛季，比任何事情都更重要的是，公牛队需要布泽利斯迎来他的突破时刻。

布泽利斯可能是公牛队阵容中最不稳定的因素，也是潜在变化幅度最大的球员。他的成长将决定公牛队的年轻核心拥有多少火力。

布泽利斯显然是一名优秀的 NBA 球员，是一名拥有出色运动能力和不错防守底蕴的稳健射手。作为一名第 11 顺位新秀，他的技能组和稳定性已经应该被视为公牛队在人才挖掘上的一次胜利。

但如果他能实现正确的飞跃，布泽利斯可以让公牛队脱颖而出——并填补该管理层试图构建的竞争性阵容的基础。

对于布泽利斯来说，这一切始于且终于他作为一名无球得分手在球场上能带来的身体对抗能力和判断力。在 21 岁（他将在周二满 22 岁）的年纪，他仍希望增加肌肉和体重。但目前，他将主要担任 3 号位，以便为体型稍大的 4 号位威尔逊腾出空间，这种配置允许布泽利斯利用他的身高优势担任一名巨型侧翼。

布泽利斯在夏天潜心训练如何在身体接触中完成进攻。作为一名年轻球员，他经常让自己在球场中间被卡住，从而选择跳投，而不是信任自己的运球并多走一步以获得更近的出手机会。本赛季，他希望尽可能多地触碰到篮筐。

“对我来说，最重要的是增强力量并磨练我所有的工具，”布泽利斯说。“我在场上能做很多事情。我的打法变得更具身体对抗性。即使在训练中增加身体对抗也是我们一直关注的重点，而这已经转化到了比赛中。”

布泽利斯知道这需要时间。这可能是最困难的部分。他在新秀赛季时设定了宏大的目标。其中一些实现了，但大多数没有。他的第二个赛季则是这种失望的更极端版本。

最重要的是，布泽利斯想要赢球。公牛队也许很快就能回到那个状态，但这可能不会在这一赛季实现。他不接受这一点。他知道，如果他习惯于接受失败，他就永远无法成为那个更好的球员。

他讨厌输球。而在这个赛季，他将不得不面对很多次失败。布泽利斯知道，应对这种令人沮丧的局面唯一的方法，就是全身心地投入到学习过程中。

“我在练习耐心，”他说，“不可能所有东西一下子都到位。对我来说这很难。我与许多聪明睿智的人交流，他们告诉我，一切都需要时间。”

“我知道这支球队有很大的潜力，我也知道我们会达到预期的目标。这是一个过程，但我们所有人都在极其努力地工作，以试图实现我们的目标。”

公牛 124, 太阳 117 (表演赛) 周三深夜 新秀威尔逊表现起伏

专注于他们自己的进攻体系和比赛风格。

作者：朱莉娅·波（Julia Poe）

芝加哥论坛报

并非每个夜晚都能进入精彩集锦。

芝加哥公牛队新秀卡莱布·威尔逊（Caleb Wilson）周三在联合中心球馆完成了他的首秀，在季前赛揭幕战对阵菲尼克斯太阳队的比赛中首发登场。在夏季联赛凭借出色表现积累了大量关注后，威尔逊在公牛队 124-117 获胜的比赛中始终未能完全找到节奏。

在职业生涯的第一课中，威尔逊体会到了 NBA 中老将经验的价值。他整个夜晚都在试图摆脱太阳队前锋狄龙·布鲁克斯（Dillon Brooks）的纠缠，后者在半场内的每一寸土地上都对他进行着顽强的贴身防守。布鲁克斯将球从威尔逊手中拍掉，并迫使他仓促出手导致投篮失准，一度让他急躁地投出了一个三不沾的跳投。

不过，即便在被布鲁克斯压制的情况下，威尔逊依然很享受这次对决。这位老将在比赛开始时克制住了垃圾话的冲动，但威尔逊却先开始了挑衅，拿布鲁克斯周一与底特律活塞队前锋约翰·柯林斯（John Collins）的一次冲突开涮。

“说实话，很有趣，”威尔逊说。“我犯了一些错误，但我预料到会犯错。不过这确实很有趣，我不撒谎。能让他成为我的第一个 NBA 对手，感觉很酷。”

“我学到了很多，学到了在没有球时如何更加积极和准备充分。……你可以从中学到很多，我会观看录像并改进。”

威尔逊天赋极高，必然会对比赛产生影响。他命中了一个流畅的中距离跳投，并完成了几次干净的扣篮，其中一次是在快攻中完成的。但他也错失了前三次三分球尝试，并在第三节还剩近 8 分钟时领到第五次犯规，导致教练蒂亚戈·斯普利特（Tiago Splitter）在第三节剩余时间内将其换下。

斯普利特在第四节将威尔逊重新派上场，但这位新秀不稳定的表现并未好转。他命中了一个转身中距离投篮，紧接着又投出了一个三分球三不沾，显示出他在面对防守人群冲击篮筐时存在犹豫。他在尝试转身动作时走步，且在冲向篮筐被防守球员干扰时出现了犹豫。

威尔逊最终得到 15 分、3 个篮板和 2 次助攻，在带着 5 次犯规的情况下，在第四节勉强打满了 10 分钟。他给自己的表现打 B 分——整体积极，但仍有巨大的成长空间。

以下是这场胜利的另外五个要点。

身高调整

由于尼克·克莱克斯顿（Nic Claxton，腿筋受伤）和扎克·柯林斯（Zach Collins，股四头肌受伤）缺阵，杰伦·史密斯（Jalen Smith）在中锋位置上首发。替补控卫特雷·琼斯（Tre Jones）也因左髋部受伤缺席本场比赛。斯普利特表示，琼斯的情况需要逐日观察，希望他能赶上 10 月 21 日的赛季揭幕战。

除了二年级中锋卡曼·马卢亚奇（Khaman Maluach）外，太阳队带来的身高挑战相对较小。公牛队给了未被选中的新秀托比·阿瓦卡（Tobe Awaka）较长的出场时间，他在篮板球上展现了极强的积极性，抢下 11 个篮板并贡献 14 分。阿瓦卡持有双向合同，但因其在训练营中不懈的努力以及抢篮板的天赋而赢得了队友和教练的赞赏。

值得注意的是，尽管有多名球员缺阵，前锋帕特里克·威廉姆斯（Patrick Williams）直到第三节中期才登场。在斯普利特的体系中，威廉姆斯似乎落后于阿瓦卡、诺亚·埃森格（Noa Essengue）和伦纳德·米勒（Leonard Miller）等前锋。

谁在掌控局面？

斯普利特没有根据太阳队的第一场季前赛为球队提供完整的侦察报告，这在表演赛中相当普遍。这意味着公牛队进入周三的比赛时的目标是

尽管如此专注于内部，但公牛队在发起进攻时依然挣扎，原因是一个明显的缺陷：缺乏合格的控球能力。

侧翼球员众多的公牛队拥有一批在无球状态下表现最佳的前锋和大号后卫。这是 NBA 的未来——但在一个技术精湛却发育不足的阵容中，当必须发起进攻时，这也引发了担忧。即使是控球后卫约什·吉迪在通过运球创造机会时也会感到吃力，这在他周三出战的 23 分钟时间里显而易见。

马塔斯·布泽利斯在低头冲击篮筐时的紧迫感和效率有所提高，他在 14 分的得分中，有 10 分是在禁区内取得的。这是布泽利斯的重点关注方向，他整个夏天都在练习这种向下冲击的动作。但如果没有吉迪或布泽利斯在场，公牛队的进攻端并不总能拥有高效的火花。

触底反弹

BOCKING BACK 新秀戴林·斯温在缺乏持球能力方面受影响最深。斯温在夏季联赛期间就已经在控球方面挣扎，当时斯普利特让他为一支年轻球队担任控卫，对他进行了一次早期考验。

这些弱点在周三再次显现。斯温在连续两次进攻中出现失误——先是控球不稳导致球出界，随后在下一次进攻中，由于试图强行突破以横跨球场，导致了 10 秒违例——之后由艾萨克·奥科罗接管球权。

然而，在经历了令人沮丧的开局后，斯温开始放松下来。斯普利特告诉他不要担心后场的战术执行，允许这位新秀在感到压力时直接冲过防守球员向对方球场推进。公牛队还通过掩护来帮助任何持球者，这一机制对于创造空间至关重要。

“（我）没有因此而过度自责，夏季联赛的表现受到了太多关注，然后来到这里，第一段出场时间并没有像我想象的那样顺利，”斯温说道。“我只是去观看需要分析的录像，接受建议并加以修正。”

“一旦修正过来，我就感觉很好了。每次重新回到比赛中，我都感到更加舒适。”

防守下滑

周三的胜利证实了关于公牛队防守的几乎所有担忧。太阳队在第一节就砍下了 40 分。随着比赛的进行，得分趋于平稳

——太阳队在随后的任何一节中都没有再次突破 30 分——但开场的 12 分钟显示出公牛队需要修补的诸多漏洞。

这不仅仅是尺寸问题。是的，在没有克莱克斯顿或柯林斯的情况下，公牛队目前缺乏一个稳定的护筐者。但更重要的是，即使在完全健康的状态下，这套阵容也没有一个真正的顶级外线防守者。这一点显而易见，因为公牛队在进攻发起点就被击穿，允许对方直接突破，并因此在换防时陷入苦战。

规则正在改变

在第二节早些时候，威尔逊冲入禁区，试图用非持球手创造出几英寸的空间，然后将球轻轻放入篮筐。这一动作引发了轻微的接触，威尔逊在向篮筐冲击时轻易地承受了这次接触。但这次尝试并没有为他赢得得分，反而被裁判吹罚了进攻犯规。

这次犯规判罚是 NBA 整体趋势的一部分，联盟在本赛季改变了对非持球手使用情况的裁判尺度。球员如果试图通过推离或以其他方式利用非持球手创造空间，将会受到处罚。

这种做法在 NBA 中已变得非常普遍，并引发了批评，认为持球者获得了过大的余地来发起接触，而防守者在不被吹罚犯规的情况下无法合理地应对。

关于黑鹰队

黑鹰队需要在冰场上培养科钦斯基

作者：Kalen Lumpkins 芝加哥论坛报

凯文·科钦斯基在开启 2026-27 赛季时处于一个尴尬的境地。

这位芝加哥黑鹰队的后卫在休赛期的很大一部分时间里是一名受限自由球员（RFA）。随着康纳·贝达德和德鲁·科梅索等其他受限自由球员达成新合同，人们开始质疑 22 岁的科钦斯基是否会留在黑鹰队的体系中。

当他在 8 月 29 日签署一份为期两年、$2.6500 万 的合同后，这些猜测终于结束了。他告诉记者，他并不太担心合同能否达成。

“这不在我的控制范围内，所以我并没有太在意，”科钦斯基在 9 月 18 日表示，“会有朋友和伙计问你什么时候签约，但我只是把休赛期当作一个进步的机会。我在这里待了一个月，与许多不同的教练和体能教练一起工作，我认为这很有益。这是一个不错的夏天。”

总经理凯尔·戴维森对科钦斯基以及另一名后卫伊森·德尔·马斯特罗的签约时间表现得十分淡定，后者在 9 月 16 日签署了一份为期两年、$1.900 万 的合同。

“在那之前我们有一些其他事务需要处理，所以我不认为在时间点上有什么深意，”戴维森在 9 月 17 日说道，“他们的职责是继续成长，继续积累经验，并在有机会或有必要时争取上场时间。”

科钦斯基不再享有豁免弃权（waivers）的资格，因此黑鹰队需要将他留在名单中，以避免其他球队可能将其抢走。即便在休赛期加入了后卫鲍文·拜拉姆和伊恩·科尔，这份新合同似乎表明黑鹰队对这位 2022 年选秀大会的第 7 顺位新秀仍有更大的计划。

或者说，我们曾这样认为。

科钦斯基在对阵明尼苏达野生队和圣路易斯蓝调队的季前赛中获得了一些上场时间，但那主要是针对以 AHL（美国冰球联盟）球员为主的阵容。那时本该是他增加实战经验的时候，但在缩短的训练营中，这种情况并未发生。

黑鹰队在 9 月 26 日敲定了开赛名单，包括 13 名前锋、8 名后卫和 2 名守门员。起初，安排 8 名后卫（包括科钦斯基和德尔·马斯特罗）似乎是合理的，因为教练杰夫·布拉希尔在上赛季曾几次采用 11 前锋、7 后卫的阵容。

但在 9 月 28 日前往拉斯维加斯参加赛季揭幕战之前，当被问及是否会再次使用此类阵容或轮换后卫时，布拉希尔表示：“我不会说我们会进行轮换。我们必须想办法在这里赢得比赛。如果我们认为有明显的档次之分，我们就让那 6 个人上场……我们当然会尝试在可能的时候让另外两人上场，但这不会是一个轮换机制。”

周六在布法罗的比赛中，由于拜拉姆因双胞胎女儿出生而缺阵，科钦斯基和德尔·马斯特罗完成了赛季首秀。这对后卫组合最终的正负值（rating）为 -2，而科钦斯基 11 分 21 秒的冰上时间是黑鹰队后卫中最低的。

布拉希尔在赛后拒绝评论科钦斯基的表现，仅表示：“他们的情况不同。我认为（德尔·马斯特罗）打了一场不错的比赛。”

而这就是科钦斯基本赛季在冰场上所能展现的一切。除非目前的顶尖六名后卫出现受伤或场外意外，否则没有迹象表明他将进入主力阵容。

那么，科钦斯基的计划是什么？

很明显，布拉希尔目前还不信任这位年轻后卫能进入前六名。这一点在去年就显而易见，当时在阿尔乔姆·列夫舒诺夫和马特·格泽尔齐克受伤后，德尔·马斯特罗比科钦斯基早几周就从罗克福队被召回。

与此同时，他正努力争取获得那个机会。

“这从训练开始，要专注地对待所有这些钻研，并在训练中表现出色，”科钦斯基周三告诉《论坛报》，“要建立信任，你必须通过努力去赢得它。信任不是白给的，这取决于我怎么做。”

科钦斯基在 2023-24 赛季作为一名 19 岁的新秀表现挣扎，在 76 场比赛中总共获得 15 分（5 个进球，10 次助攻），正负值为 -39。此后，他仅参加了 30 场 NHL 比赛；而在过去两个赛季中，他为冰猪队（IceHogs）出战了 109 场比赛，贡献 53 分（5 个进球，48 次助攻），正负值为 -38。

布拉希尔和戴维森都主张，在可预见的未来，黑鹰队需要将年轻人才培养成能够胜任 NHL 的球员。但如果一名年轻球员无法上场，他们又该如何实现这一目标？

对于联盟中最年轻的球队来说，失误在所难免。布拉希尔注意到了这一点，最近在周三谈到 21 岁的前锋尼克·拉迪斯（Nick Lardis）开局缓慢时便提及了此事。

“比赛总会进行，失误总会发生，只要（拉迪斯）能继续摆脱影响并积极进攻，我就没问题，”布拉希尔说。“他必须坚持打下去，在某个时间点，如果你一直做正确的事，情况就会开始向有利于你的方向发展。”

科钦斯基还没有获得这样宽容的认可，至少在布拉希尔任职期间是这样。目前，他是一个备选方案，而黑鹰队不希望他被其他球队抢走。

就科钦斯基而言，他正以自己能做到的最好方式利用目前的处境——通过观察来学习。

“在比赛中做一个学生，保持专注，尽可能多地学习，并在被点名时做好准备，”他说。

25 岁的拜勒姆和 37 岁的科尔都是极佳的学习榜样。尽管他们处于职业生涯的不同阶段，但他们的经验能为科钦斯基的比赛提供新思路。

“就像一块海绵一样吸收他们的经验，积累一些小细节，比如是什么让他们获得成功，以及那些容易实施的事情，”科钦斯基说。“这些东西能产生深远影响，你不需要重新发明轮子，但你可以增加一点点细节。”

科尔签署的是一份一年期合同，因此这可能就是黑鹰队预期科钦斯基准备就绪的时间线。如果情况确实如此，整个赛季都处于健康但未被选入名单（healthy scratches）的状态对他没什么帮助。

无论如何，科钦斯基觉得无论何时听到号令，他都准备好了。

“对我来说，重要的是确保在被点名时我已经准备就绪，”他说。“保持状态，在训练中、训练前额外努力，做好细节工作，照顾好身体，随时准备出发。”

伊利诺伊大学（ILLINI）

入选了由 11 人组成的季前赛 Big Ten 全明星阵容。他们在春季宣布回归的消息——以及双中锋托莫斯拉夫·伊维希奇（Tomislav Ivišić）和兹沃尼米尔·伊维希奇（Zvonimir Ivišić）以及前锋杰克·戴维斯（Jake Davis）的回归——是休赛期的重大新闻。

这与一年前的米尔科维奇（Mirković）相比有了巨大的进步，当时他刚来到美国，对大学篮球还很陌生。

“我来到世界的另一端是为了证明一些东西，这就是我的目标——来到这里证明自己并尽可能多地获胜，”米尔科维奇说。“但我想现在情况不同了。大家都知道我是谁。教练对我寄予厚望。他们给了我很大的自由，并且期望我们现在能赢更多场比赛。”

米尔科维奇在一年级时就尝到了聚光灯的滋味，当时他场均贡献 13.3 分、8 个篮板和 2.6 次助攻。他获得了 9 次两双，其 297 个篮板创下了伊利诺伊大学一年级纪录，打破了科菲·科克本（Kofi Cockburn）创下的纪录。

他在场上强悍且多才多艺的打法给人留下了深刻印象。而在伊利诺伊大学参加 NCAA 锦标赛期间，他在采访和球队视频中展现出的开朗个性也吸引了场外的关注。

“我很兴奋世界能了解他，”安德伍德说。“我们每天都与他打交道，他很有趣，有时因为他的竞争精神，他也会让人觉得是个挑战。但和他在一起是一种快乐，纯粹是因为这个年轻人热爱生活。”

如果米尔科维奇的恢复进程保持正常，并且能接续上赛季的状态，他可能会为这支很可能在赛季初排名在前五的伊利诺伊大学球队赢得更多关注。

但米尔科维奇表示，他并没有感受到随这种关注而来的外部压力。

“对我们来说，最大的压力就是坚持出现，做一个平凡的人，并尽可能保持稳定，”他说。“听从教练和队友的指导，然后努力工作。我认为我们正处于良好的状态。”

米尔科维奇表示，他在一次球队训练中受伤，这次受伤唯一的好处就是时机。他在休赛前能够完成良好的训练，之后才开始休养。这包括找到了他所谓的“最适合我身体的体重”。

“我的大脑能想象到的一切，我都能做到，而我的身体在球场上也随之实现了，”他说。

安德伍德表示，米尔科维奇提高了他的控球能力——“尤其是左手进步巨大”——并称他为“对位噩梦”。他预计今年会让米尔科维奇在每个位置上都出战，并指出这种多功能性让伊利诺伊大学队能够为他寻找有利的对位机会。

“利用这一点将是我们的任务，我完全可以看到他在我们的五个位置上都能打，”安德伍德说。“我们可以打小阵容。我们也可以用他担任控球后卫来打大阵容。所以我很喜欢这种多功能性，我们将把很多战术建立在他强迫对方产生错位的能力之上。”

斯托亚科维奇在这个夏天也看到了一个更优秀的米尔科维奇。

“我想说，他在对待比赛的方式以及每天进入训练时的心态上，表现得成熟了很多，”斯托亚科维奇说。“就他的竞技水平而言，很多时候当我们处于对方球队时，虽然不一定是通过言语，但通过他的打法，他要求其他人必须跟上他的强度。”

米尔科维奇说，过去几个月在场边观察给了他一个“不同的视角”来看待比赛，他认为即使没有在球场上训练，他也变得更强了。

观看其他球员的录像也让他受益匪浅。

安德伍德在休赛期建议米尔科维奇观看拉里·伯德的集锦，而伯德在米尔科维奇出生前就退役了。米尔科维奇知道伯德是历史级的伟大球员，但他说：“我以前不知道他在身体素质不占优的情况下能打得那么好。”他研究了如何面对更高、更快的对手进行传球和得分。

“我发现他们的比赛风格有很多相似之处，尤其是提升其他球员的方式，”安德伍德说。“拉里总是能让队友变得更好。而米尔克也具备这种能力……我认为如果他能从中学习到一些东西，或许能增强他的比赛能力或给他带来一些信心，那么就太好了。”

廷利公园高中大四四分卫力求完美收官

卢德克：“我不想放弃”，在经历两年伤病后回归

作者：帕特里克·Z·麦格文（Patrick Z. McGavin） 为《每日南城报》（DAILY SOUTHTOWN）撰写

大四四分卫兰迪·卢德克（Randy Ludke）希望为廷利公园高中（Tinley Park）完成他所开启的事业。

在为泰坦队（Titans）统领进攻的前两年中，卢德克每次都因伤结束赛季。他不仅在身体上，而且在心理上努力克服这些挫折，争取回归。

“我认为这两次经历让我明白，伤病不会将我击垮，”他说。“远离赛场让我学到最深的一点是，这对我来说有多重要。我想回来。”

“我不想放弃。我想在我的大四赛季回归。”

周五晚上，卢德克的回归故事继续书写。在南郊蓝色组（South Suburban Blue）以 26-21 击败兰辛市 T.F. South 的比赛中，他贡献了 172 码，跑进两个达阵，并传出一个达阵传球。

大二跑卫格雷森·马洛尼（Grayson Maloney）在地面推进中增加了 124 码，并在比赛还剩 4 秒时为廷利公园队（战绩 4-3, 2-2）攻入制胜达阵。

卢德克本赛季已获得 19 个达阵，其中 9 个是通过传球实现的。

他的双威胁能力开辟了进攻的可能性，但他的存在本身同样重要。

大四后卫布伦丹·德雷夫斯（Brendan Draves）表示，卢德克在情感上的韧性激励了泰坦队。

“我记得他大二时受伤了，”德雷夫斯说。“去年这种情况再次发生，但两次回归后他都比以往更强大。这充分展现了他的为人。”

“他有极强的职业道德，而且是个很棒的伙伴。进攻线球员总是希望热爱他们的四分卫，而他绝对是一个你永远想要保护的人。”

大四中锋朱德·麦克莱什（Jude McCleish）指出，卢德克对整个进攻体系有着极强的掌控力。

“我认为他最好的品质之一就是他给进攻线提供的反馈，无论是关于开球还是关于防线漏洞在哪里，”麦克莱什说。“在战术讨论时，他总是确保我们排好队并处于正确的位置。”

“他就是一个勤奋的人。去年他在对阵勒蒙特（Lemont）的比赛中受伤。他站了起来，继续努力，现在这个赛季他表现得非常出色。”

周五晚上，卢德克 14 次传球完成 9 次，获得 101 码，并在 11 次携带球跑动中增加了 71 码。像一名冠军拳击手一样，他为比赛带来了个性、动力和气魄。

“我认为我很强韧、很激进，我永远不会回避身体接触，”他说。“我们运行的是摊开式进攻（spread offense），一名跑卫和四名接球手，我有自由去做任何我想做的事——留在口袋区，四处奔跑，并利用我们所有不同的阵型来拉开场地。”

泰坦队的胜场数较上赛季有了显著提高，上赛季他们以 1-8. 完赛。在大四赛季让卢德克重新回到中锋位置起到了巨大的作用。

身高 6 英尺、体重 1,180 磅的卢德克在伤病史面前显得有些谨慎。他在场上依然激进，但在承受冲击时现在更加冷静且凭直觉判断。

“我觉得我在任何情况下都能承受冲击，但我并不傲慢，”他说。“我知道什么时候该保护自己，什么时候是低肩冲撞的正确时机。”

他在篮球场上也展现出同样的胆识和竞争意识。橄榄球是家族传统，他的父亲和祖父都曾参与这项运动。他母亲方的四位叔伯也曾打过球。

“我的叔伯们在布雷门（Bremen）打球，我父亲在橡树森林（Oak Forest）打球，都是学区学校，”他说。“所以每当我走进不同的学校，看到家族成员的名字，感觉真的很酷。”

现在，他希望为自己的故事写一个不同的结局。

“有趣的是，我小时候对橄榄球并没有那么认真，”他说。“在小学和初中时只是为了好玩。现在，我热爱尽可能地掌控局面。”

“我在场上统领进攻，这是你能拥有的最高掌控力。”

公牛预备队在橄榄球场上同样取得成功

亨德森试图为学校“打响名号”，泰特给 DI 潜力新星带来更多希望

作者：迈克·麦格劳 (Mike McGraw) 《每日先驱报》(DAILY HERALD)

Bulls Prep 的跑卫埃里克·亨德森 (Eric Henderson) 正试图为芝加哥西区带来一些橄榄球传奇色彩，而该地区长期以来一直与篮球紧密相连。

从 1981 年 NBA 选秀中马克·阿吉雷 (Mark Aguirre) 和伊赛亚·托马斯 (Isiah Thomas) 分别获得首轮第一和第二顺位，到著名的纪录片《篮球梦》(Hoop Dreams)，以及 20 世纪 90 年代在联合中心赢得的六次 NBA 总冠军，西区曾一度是世界的篮球之都。

在一年级就读于 Johnson Prep 的亨德森表示，他和一些邻居朋友决定在 Bulls 组队，以改变这一现状。

“我们像兄弟一样彼此信任，”亨德森说，“我们知道作为一支球队，我们能一起走得很远。所以我们决定统一行动，来到 Bulls。”

近年来，西区的橄榄球队并没有太多成功案例，可能自 1958 年奥斯汀队击败芬威克队赢得 Bowl 冠军以来就再无如此成就。

但作为一名大二学生，本赛季为 Bulls （战绩 3-4）冲球约 900 码的亨德森有一个理想的榜样：田纳西泰坦队的外接手卡内尔·泰特 (Carnell Tate)，他是 2026 年 NFL 选秀的第 4 顺位。

在马里斯特学院就读两年、在佛罗里达州的 IMG 学院就读两年以及在俄亥俄州立大学就读三年之前，泰特在加菲尔德公园社区长大。

事实上，泰特最初是在 Bulls 教练迈克尔·威利斯 (Michael Willis) 麾下开始打青少年橄榄球的。基于这段关系，泰特在 7 月与 Bulls 的球员们进行了交流，讲述了他从西区走向 NFL 的心路历程。

“他们问了很多很棒的问题，而他对待他们非常坦诚，”威利斯说，“他告诉了他们必须怎么做。”

和泰特一样，亨德森在哥伦布公园为芝加哥充电者队 (Chicago Chargers) 打青少年橄榄球。因此，他们有很多共同点。

亨德森已经获得了西肯塔基大学的录取邀请，并引起了常春藤联盟球队的关注，他深受泰特的启发。

“我从中意识到，对我来说成功并非不可能，”亨德森说，“这会很艰难。我必须面对逆境，但我必须去面对它。我从（泰特）那里获得了动力，因为看到他来自我居住的芝加哥，我就觉得，如果他能做到，我知道我也能。”

亨德森说他的父母年轻时都打篮球。他小时候在电视上看 NFL 比赛，于是决定尝试一些不同的东西。

“我当时和奶奶以及表亲们住在一起，”他说，“他们因为痴迷橄榄球而经常打开电视，从那时起我就爱上了这项运动。我第一个喜欢的球员大概是托德·格尔利 (Todd Gurley)。”

身高 5 英尺 10, 165 磅的亨德森在去年大一赛季冲球 1,409 码，他目前还不是像格尔利那样的力量型跑卫。但亨德森拥有极佳的加速度，一旦进入开阔地带就很难被拦截。

上周，在与 Young 队的一场公共联赛红盾赛 (Public League Red Shield) 中，亨德森冲球 234 码并获得两次达阵，此外他还有多次达阵冲球因违规被取消。那场比赛对 Bulls 来说，结局极其沉重且令人心碎。

在莱恩体育场 (Lane Stadium) 的雨中比赛，Bulls 在第四节末段以 12-7 领先，防守方在第四次进攻且还差 29 码的情况下将 Young 队逼退。Bulls 只需要两次跪地（ kneel-downs）即可结束比赛，但湿滑的球从四分卫手中脱出，海豚队的卡梅隆·布朗 (Cameron Brown) 将球捡起并冲球 98 码完成绝杀得分。

亨德森在后方追击，但未能完成拦截。

“我不撒谎，我（因这次失利）很受伤，但这成了（周六对阵）肯伍德队的动力，”亨德森说，“那是我们的资深之夜。我们必须为兄弟们而战，这次失利虽然不该发生，但它现在成了燃料。”

作为唯一一支在公共联赛最高级别橄榄球赛中参赛的特许学校，Bulls 存在一些劣势，例如没有真正的练习场。学校旁边一个没有划线的公园（其中还包含一个戏水池和一个游乐场）只能勉强凑合。

Bulls Prep 本赛季经历了三场分差在 10 分以内的失利，但威利斯的 goal 是将该项目打造成为西区橄榄球强队，这在现代将是前所未有的。

“这绝对是我们努力想要成为的样子，”亨德森说道。“我们正努力为 Bulls 赢得名声，让学校出名，也让我们自己出名。”

芝加哥公牛队和芝加哥黑鹰队已经很久没有赢得任何冠军了。也许一支来自西区的橄榄球队伍能填补这一空白。

Power 4 录取邀请未令 Kenwood 宽接手分心

作者：Patrick Z. McGavin 为《芝加哥论坛报》撰写

Kenwood 高中四年级宽接手劳伦斯·卡尔（Lawrence Carr）性格内敛，很少引起人们的注意。但卡尔将那种鲁莽与大胆留在了足球场上，他身上所有安静的特质在瞬间消失得无影无踪。

“我第一次见人时有点害羞，”他说，“聊开了之后就会好一些。但当我上场比赛时，我的心态会发生变化。我知道没有人能防住我。”

在周六于 Lane 体育场举行的比赛中，Kenwood 以 48-0 在公共联赛红盾赛（Public League Red Shield）中击败了林肯公园高中，卡尔在其中完成了一次 81 码的开球回攻达阵。本赛季他已获得 11 次达阵，其中大部分是通过传球进攻实现的。

卡尔为这支目前五连胜的野马队（战绩 5-2, 4-0）贡献了 27 次接球，总接球码数 738 码，并获得 9 次达阵，平均每次接球 27.3 码。

“他是个顶尖球员，”三年级四分卫马拉基·亨尼根（Malachi Henigan）表示，“他的多功能性、速度、接球能力和领导力为我们的进攻带来了极大的助力。”

“他非常勤奋且谦逊，总是提前到达或在训练后留下，这样我们就能一起传球，真正磨合好默契。”

卡尔与 Kenwood 教练克里斯·戈弗（Chris Goffer）有着不同的渊源，后者曾是 Mount Carmel 的球员和助理教练。卡尔在一年级时作为接手在 Mount Carmel 开始其职业生涯。在 2023 年 Class 7A 州冠军赛中，当 Caravan 队以 35-10 击败 Downers Grove North 时，卡尔身着球衣在场边待命。

卡尔在二年级开始时来到了 Kenwood。

“我接手他时他还很年轻，”戈弗说，“当时在教学和学习曲线上经历了一些波动。但他总是能付出 $100\%$ 的努力。他接球能力极强，是我见过的接手中最强有力的双手之一。”

身高 5-foot-11, 170-pound 的卡尔将稳健的身材与速度、灵活性以及出色的拉开空间能力相结合。但“低调”才是他的定义。

卡尔收到了近 30 支第一分区（Division I）球队的奖学金邀请，包括迈阿密大学和威斯康星大学，但他并没有将自己的招募过程变成一场表演。

“我可能要等到赛季结束后才会做决定，”他说，“能获得关注是一种特权和荣誉，但我并不真正讨论这件事。我只是保持谦逊。当人们祝贺我时，我只说‘谢谢’。”

卡尔有一种在最后时刻才展露锋芒的方式。Kenwood 四年级跑卫贾马里乌斯·安德鲁斯（Jamarius Andrus）对他比赛中一个极其微妙的细节感到惊叹。

“我就是喜欢看他‘迟到’的双手，”安德鲁斯说，“他从不抢跑。因为他的手在最后时刻才伸出，你甚至感觉不到他在接球。”

“有时我们在一次进攻推进中陷入困境，然后你就会看到劳伦斯接住一个深球。和他一起比赛非常有安全感。”

卡尔曾经还打过篮球和棒球，但足球占据了他的全部注意力。这项运动可以追溯到他最早的记忆。他记得早在 3 岁时就抱着足球到处跑。他说他的父亲科里·古奇（Corey Gooch）是他最早的支持者。

“那时我对足球其实一窍不通，”他说，“起初我并不太喜欢，但我父亲一直推动我，希望我能真正地去打球。”

“我大概 5 岁左右时拿到了第一次达阵。我开始每天和父亲一起训练，从那时起我就爱上了这项运动。”

卡尔童年的一些最美好回忆与足球无关，比如和祖父一起去露营以及制作小汽车。

“我小时候经常玩这种小赛车，”他说，“那些车我现在还留着。”

“虽然我很安静，但我一直很有竞争心和野心，尤其是随着我对足球的深入了解。我对这项运动始终保持着极大的热情。”

周日，在佛罗里达州坦帕，包装工队近端锋塔克·克拉夫特（Tucker Kraft）试图摆脱海盗队角卫凯昂特·斯科特（Keionte Scott）的擒抱。JASON BEHNKEN / 美联社 (15)

包装工队近端封堵手 Kraft 仍在努力摆脱生疏感

作者：Steve Megargee 美联社

格林贝 —— 塔克·克拉夫特（Tucker Kraft）今年夏天表示，在上一赛季前十字韧带撕裂之前，他认为自己的表现与 NFL 任何一名近端封堵手一样出色。

在周日格林贝包装工队客场 17-14 击败坦帕湾海盗队的比赛中，克拉夫特拿到了本赛季的首次达阵，但他也没能接住一次端区内的传球，延续了他反常的掉球困扰。克拉夫特目前的场均接球码数为 9.9 码，远低于他进入本赛季前 13.7 码的职业生涯平均水平。

如今虽然恢复了健康，但克拉夫特无法立即找回之前的状态。

“我想我只是试图做得太多了，”克拉夫特在周三表示。“在进攻端，我们可能会陷入低谷，而我认为我可以在那时做出挽救比赛的动作。我把注意力从球上移开了。没有球就什么也做不了，所以我打算慢下来，履行好我的职责。接住足球。”

在周日与芝加哥熊队（3-1）的对决之前，克拉夫特在四场比赛中接球 15 次，获得 148 码，并完成一次达阵。

上赛季，他在八场比赛中接球 32 次，获得 489 码并完成六次达阵，随后在 11 月 2 日输给卡罗来纳黑豹队的比赛中，其右膝前十字韧带撕裂。

包装工队教练马特·拉弗勒（Matt LaFleur）表示，这只是一个摆脱生疏感的问题。

“我认为很多经历过重大伤病的人都需要一段时间，”拉弗勒说。“我知道我们想要即时的满足感，而且预期是无论你之前看到了什么，现在就应该是那样。但我认为对于许多这类球员来说，不仅是我们队，而且在整个联盟中，那些经历过重大伤病的人……他们必须重新找回比赛感觉。”

克拉夫特通过努力在赛季开始前恢复了状态。在包装工队（2-2）以 39-22 客场输给明尼苏达维京人队开启赛季的前一天，他签署了一份为期四年、7500万美元 的合同延期协议，最高价值可达 9200万美元。

但他仍在努力找回上赛季上半场展现出的状态。

虽然克拉夫特承认他的数据并不一定能反映这一点，但这位 2023 年来自南达科他州立大学的第三轮秀认为，比赛节奏在他看来正在慢下来。他说自己在识别防守覆盖方面“感觉更有经验”。

“从统计数据来看，可能看起来我并没有打得更好，”克拉夫特说。“有些人甚至会说我失去了锐气。我的兄弟们就这么告诉我。他们说，‘你在场上的样子看起来像是失去了锋芒。’他们上周对我这么说。我试着在坦帕表现得强硬一些，但那里实在太他妈热了。我在那里简直无法呼吸。”

“这周（我将）尝试找回我的初心，回到我第一年和第二年时的状态，那时我一直拼到哨声响起，给防守方制造压力。”

克拉夫特依然在产生影响。

在周日的比赛中，他在 9 码线处的一次第四档 1 码进攻中直接接球，完成了 3 码的推进，四分卫乔丹·洛夫（Jordan Love）从后方推他向前，从而为包装工队创造了首次达阵的机会。

“我在高中时做了两年的四分卫，做过一些中心下的操作，”克拉夫特说。“我在大学里运行这种战术方面有很多经验，因为这是一种特殊情况，在大学里必须大量练习，我在南达科他州立大学时运行过大约八次。”

这是克拉夫特在尝试提高产出时，为自己的比赛增加的一种方式。

毕竟，他不仅仅想回到上赛季的比赛状态。他想变得更好。

“目标始终是向上攀升，”克拉夫特说。“如果你没有在进步，那么你就在退步。所以我的目标是每天以正确的心态走进这座大楼。观看录像，分析我们的跑球和传球图表，并将这些真正应用到我自2023年来到这里以来的每一次训练重复中。我只是在努力继续进化，争取在场上创造更多突破性表现。而这一切都始于接住球。”

并且这给了我们动力。

在对阵纽约喷气机队的一场比赛中，莫南盖在30次携带球的情况下跑出146码，其中接触后推进距离达106码——这是本赛季单场比赛中的第五高纪录，仅次于亚特兰大猎鹰队的比詹·罗宾逊和堪萨斯城酋长队的肯尼斯·沃克（两人各有一场更高纪录）——并且有3次跑球距离至少达到10码。

在斯威夫特于第三节掉球后，莫南盖最终以19次携带球、96码（包括一次26码跑球）和一次达阵收场。

“为他感到高兴，”斯威夫特周四表示。“他以应有的方式结束了比赛。打了一场极其精彩的比赛。”

第18周待定

第5周的波折在于，莫南盖因拇指和脚趾受伤，周四连续第二天缺席训练。教练本·约翰逊本周早些时候表示，拇指受伤不应该是问题，但他尚未提及莫南盖的脚趾伤情。

斯威夫特因髋部和膝盖受伤，在训练中受到限制。在对阵喷气机队的比赛中，他有15次携带球，跑出58码，但当天最大的污点是掉球，这是他本赛季的第二次掉球。

“那不是我的常态，”斯威夫特说。“所以我不想把它变成一个大问题。只要对此更加留心即可。”

熊队的另一个缺陷是红区（red zone）缺乏效率（得分为42.11%，排名第30位），这是整个星期的重点关注领域。但红区跑球可能让本·约翰逊感到格外恼火，因为他是联盟中极其推崇跑球战术的信徒。

在对阵喷气机队的第一组进攻中，斯威夫特在3码线和1码线处的达阵跑球在回放后被判定无效。

熊队在第四档进攻中丢失球权。

在下一组进攻中，熊队推进到了喷气机队的4码线，但莫南盖连续尝试了三次才跨过达阵线。

斯威夫特说，这“非常”令人沮丧。“因为我认为如果我们能解决红区得分问题，我们在进攻端的得分和相关方面将处于更有利的位置。但必须把球推进去。必须在第一次进攻中得分。”

斯威夫特本赛季的另一次掉球也发生在红区：在第2周对阵明尼苏达维京人的比赛中，他在达阵线附近掉球。

熊队在对阵黑豹队的比赛中将100%的红区机会转化为得分，但进攻协调员普雷斯·泰勒表示，在过去三周里，他们对阵维京人队时3次尝试全部失败（0-for-3），对阵费城老鹰队时转化率为40%，对阵喷气机队时为29%，这一事实令人“失望”。

“某些球队根据他们对我们的观察，采取了与我们计划略有不同的打法，”他说。“所以我们正努力确保做好自我侦察等工作。”

“但归根结底，这是我们必须解决的问题，我认为我们正处于正确的解决轨道上。但结果必须体现在比赛中。”

伤病情况

后卫乔纳·杰克逊（脚踝）、乔·图尼（胸肌）以及右截锋达内尔·赖特（脚踝）在缺席周三训练后，均于周四恢复训练。

四分卫卡莱布·威廉姆斯（腿后腱）和线卫凯肖恩·埃利奥特（股四头肌）缺席了训练。

不过，防守后卫凯勒·戈登（小腿）和卡姆·刘易斯（髋部）全程参与了训练，线卫诺亚·塞维尔（跟腱）和谢马尔·特纳（膝盖）也是如此。

截至周四，戈登、塞维尔和特纳仍留在预备 / 身体无法执行任务名单中，但他们一直在各自的 21 天恢复薪资窗口期内进行训练。

问：D'Andre Swift 还会是 RB1（第一跑卫）吗？—— @zachattack0181

Swift 可能会继续在基础档次中获得最多的使用机会，而且他在传球进攻中也更有价值。 在周日丢球的那次进攻其实很不符合他的习惯，因为他通常不会在处理球时如此粗心，但这次恰恰发生了这种情况。

“我们都必须迅速忘掉不快，”教练本·约翰逊在周一表示。“我们必须从中吸取教训。教练、球员，我们所有人有时都会做出不理想的行为。可能是我的战术布置失误，也可能是防守端漏掉了擒抱。这些事情都会发生。从中学习，然后继续前进。”

令人沮丧的是，这次失误发生在 在对阵明尼苏达维京人的比赛中，在 1 码线的第一档进球尝试中丢失球后的仅仅两周。如果他当时没有丢球，那场比赛的结果可能会截然不同。

现实情况是，熊队在整个赛季中都需要 和凯尔·莫南盖。在对阵纽约喷气机的比赛中，莫南盖职业生涯首次达到 30 次携带，跑出 146 码并获得两个达阵。

赛季前有人问我关于后场时间分配的问题，我认为会与上赛季类似，当时 承担了跑卫携带量的 55.75%，莫南盖承担了 42.25%，其余 2% 由几名球员分担。

这就是关键所在。如果熊队能在绝大部分赛季中让 和莫南盖交替出场，他们就能在很多时候让一名状态新鲜的跑卫在场上。携带量的分布可能会接近 50-50，但这与 2025 年相比不会有巨大的变化。

周三缺席训练，周四因膝盖和髋部问题训练受限。莫南盖在训练营后期膝盖受伤，并在周日比赛后期遭受右拇指受伤。他周三和周四缺席，被列为拇指和脚趾受伤。约翰逊称拇指伤势为“日复一日（观察中）”的伤情。

本赛季 共有 69 次携带，莫南盖为 60 次。熊队正在审视他们在红区的问题，两名跑卫在那里都打得很艰难。也许在那个位置我们会看到更多莫南盖的出场，但他在靠近球门线附近寻找突破口时也遇到了困难。

教练组需要在这里理清一些问题，但在前四场比赛中，这是 NFL 中排名最高的冲球进攻，场均 196.3 码——比排名第二的亚特兰大猎鹰队多出 15.3 码。

熊队前四场比赛的 785 码冲球距离是自 1984 年（当时开局为 801 码）以来的最高纪录。自 2014 年以来，只有另外四支球队在前四场比赛中达到了这个数值。

问：我认为防守线可能会比预期的好得多，我的想法正确吗，还是我太盲目乐观了？—— Keith L., Homer Glen

我对本周没有更多关于防守的问题感到有些惊讶，因为熊队在过去三场比赛中仅丢了两个达阵，总分仅为 28 分。要找到上一次他们在连续三场比赛中丢分在 28 分或以下的时间，必须追溯到 2012 年的第 4 到第 7 周（包括一个休息周）。

这一切都始于前线，防线表现良好，且冲传能力显然比一年前有所提高。达约·奥德英博（Dayo Odeyingbo）有 3 次擒杀，蒙特兹·斯威特（Montez Sweat）和奥斯汀·布克（Austin Booker）各有 2 次。他们在追击四分卫时未必显得具有压倒性，但整体协作紧密，这正契合了防守协调员丹尼斯·艾伦（Dennis Allen）在谈到将冲传与覆盖相结合时的意图。

“我们讨论的 No. 1 因素是双方进攻端的传球效率，”约翰逊（Johnson）说道。“用通俗的话来说，如果我们的四分卫比对方的四分卫打得更好，我们就很有机会赢得比赛。”

“我觉得尤其是过去两周，我们通过冲传和覆盖两个方面真正影响了对方四分卫。DA 在混合这些覆盖方案方面做得非常好。我们后方的球员执行力极高。他们能够紧贴对手并限制传球路线，而且我们的冲传计划非常出色。无论我们是派遣 4 人冲传还是施加压力，这些球员目前都在高效协作。”

第 4 周“老鹰”的传球保护情况如何？—— @justinianuscode

我认为西奥·贝内迪特（Theo Benedet）在对阵喷气机队的比赛中表现相当不错，我们看到对方让新秀边缘冲传手大卫·贝利（David Bailey）在场上进行了一些位置调整。贝内迪特比上赛季首次被投入实战时控制得好得多，这要归功于他在休赛期的刻苦努力。

上赛季他经常出现失去平衡的情况，这导致他陷入困境，被对手绕过、突破或直接冲垮。教练们强调他需要改善姿态并利用手臂，他在对阵喷气机队时做到了这一点。

“我认为他做得非常好，”约翰逊说道。“我们知道他具备下沉并保持低重心，并在攻击点顶开防守者的能力。他有时展现出了这一点，所以这是一个很好的学习和成长起点。”

“我很高兴他在场上感觉相对舒适一些。我认为他和（左后卫）乔（Joe Thuney）在左侧的沟通很顺畅，这绝对是我们能够继续改进并提升的地方。”

贝内迪特表现得比 2025 年更好带来的好处是，无需匆忙让奥齐·特拉皮洛（Ozzy Trapilo）回归实战。我怀疑特拉皮洛有可能在周日于格林贝的比赛中本赛季首次进入活跃名单。

但贝内迪特看起来将留在首发阵容中，如果他表现良好，他可能会在这个位置上坚守一段时间，因为熊队确实希望在让特拉皮洛回归的方式上更加谨慎。对于一名错过了几乎整个训练营和所有季前赛的线锋来说，要让他迅速进入状态是一个挑战，因为常规赛期间的带护具练习非常稀少。

MLB 季后赛

酿酒人队的“信念”达到历史最高点

作者：Greg Beacham 美联社

圣迭戈 —— 在一个充满高效胜利的赛季中，酿酒人队在周三晚上于佩特科公园球场内庆祝他们锁定了国联分区系列赛的胜局。现场充斥着啤酒雨、弥漫的雪茄烟雾，以及无数贴有威斯康星州各城市名称标签的起泡酒瓶。

酿酒人队在球队历史上的最佳阶段再次赢得季后赛系列赛并准备返回主场，对此他们感到非常兴奋 —— 但他们也知道，同样在周三晋级的道奇队将在本周末于密尔沃基与他们交手。

一年前，酿酒人队在国联冠军系列赛中被毫无情面地横扫出局，当时他们似乎还没准备好迎接由令人畏惧的世界系列赛冠军带来的挑战；而现在的这支球队坚信，在这次重赛中他们能表现得更好。

酿酒人队在对阵教徒队的国联分区系列赛中经历了一场紧张的胜利 —— 4 场比赛的总分差仅为 5 分 —— 这进一步凸显了他们对自己能在 10 月份脱颖而出并真正为球队首个冠军而战的信心。

“我认为我们对自己有一种不同类型的信心和信念，”中外野手加勒特·米切尔说道，他是第 4 场比赛中凭借击球和防守成为英雄的人物。“这就像是一种安静、微妙的信心。它不是在炫耀。而是从管理层到工作人员，俱乐部里的每一个人都相信……我也认为这是因为 1 年的时间差。球员们在不断成熟。”

“我们都很兴奋能出去竞争并尝试完成目标。”

在过去 9 个赛季中第 8 次进入季后赛且开局强劲，酿酒人队正在逐渐打破通往最终目标的剩余障碍。

这支队伍在圣迭戈的决胜场中结束了自 2018 年以来在季后赛客场 12 连败的纪录，且在过程中执行得近乎完美。酿酒人队将教徒队的安打数限制在 3 个，同时在展现卓越防守的同时把握住了关键击球机会，逐渐消磨了通常狂热的佩特科球场观众的斗志。

“那支球队（教徒队）可以击败棒球界任何一支球队，”酿酒人队经理帕特·墨菲在谈到教徒队时说。“在季后赛客场没有球队拥有胜率记录 —— 也许除了道奇队。情况就是这样。那些环境太难打球了。是的，如果我们一直敲季后赛的大门，这件事迟早会发生。”

道奇队挡在了下一扇门前，但酿酒人队相信这次终于轮到他们了。

“今晚是关于我们的，但明天我们要制定计划，”第 4 场先发投手罗伯特·加瑟说道。“我们试图执行并思考：‘我们如何在家场赢得 2 场胜利，然后前往洛杉矶在那里解决战斗？’”

“我们今年对阵他们表现不错。去年我们在国联冠军系列赛中见过他们，但现在我们全员就位，准备出发。”

MLB 考虑缩短赛季，分区系列赛改为 7 场四胜制

新闻服务

美国职业棒球大联盟（MLB）在周四提交给球员的集体谈判计划中提出，从 2029 年起将常规赛从 162 场缩短至 154 场，并将分区系列赛扩展为 7 场四胜制。

球队老板还建议在目前的季后赛赛制中增加 9 个休息日，将其延长至最多 42 天，此举将使顶尖先发投手有潜力获得更多出场机会。

MLB 将允许季后赛前两轮中种子排名较高的球队从明年开始选择其对手，并从 2029 年起，除最多两场全国直播比赛外，大多数球队的常规赛周一将成为休息日。

削减常规赛场次将减少球员创造赛季和职业生涯记录的机会。

球员协会表示将审查该计划，并在谈判桌上做出回应。

NFL 希望最高法院裁决能有“明确性” NFL 正在敦促最高法院就预测市场的监管做出裁决。在周四提交的一份法庭之友陈述书中， 认为，考虑到“目前的形势”，已经监管合法体育博彩的各州更有能力监督与体育相关的合同。 支持新泽西州请求最高法院就预测市场的管辖权做出裁决，预测市场提供了交易（或投注）未来事件结果的机会。商品期货交易委员会一直主张其拥有专属的联邦管辖权，而各州则认为，这类典型的“是或否”问题类似于赌博，应在其管辖范围内。 的律师写道：“如果缺乏只有本法院才能提供的明确性，（预测市场）运营商将继续利用州政府与联邦监管之间的漏洞，危及消费者以及全国体育赛事的公正性。”根据 的陈述书，在本赛季的第一个周日，预测市场的交易量中超过一半——在总计 33 亿美元 billion 中占 18 亿美元 billion——与该联盟相关。 在陈述书中写道：“法院的任何延迟都将导致消费者损害增加以及比赛公正性风险的提升。”

威尔逊第五次荣膺 WNBA MVP，连续三年获此殊荣

阿贾·威尔逊（A'ja Wilson）周四连续第三年获得 WNBA 最有价值球员（MVP），这也是她职业生涯中创纪录的第五次获奖。威尔逊不仅成为首位实现“三连冠”的球员，此前还在 2020 年和 '22. 获得过该奖项。现年 30 岁的威尔逊再次在得分榜上领跑全联盟（场均 26.2 分），且投篮命中率接近 53%。她还场均贡献 9.4 个篮板、职业生涯最高的 3.2 次助攻以及 1.9 次盖帽。威尔逊带领卫冕冠军 Aces 队连续第八个赛季进入 WNBA 半决赛，尽管他们在与 Valkyries 队的五局三胜制系列赛中目前以 0-2 落后。威尔逊获得了由全国体育记者和广播员组成的评审团给出的 65 张第一名选票和 9 张第二名选票（总计 713 分）。Lynx 队的新秀后卫奥利维亚·迈尔斯（Olivia Miles）获得 6 张第一名选票和 40 张第二名选票（442 分），而 Fever 队的后卫凯尔西·米切尔（Kelsey Mitchell）和凯特琳·克拉克（Caitlin Clark）分别以 287 分和 212 分紧随其后。除威尔逊外，没有其他 WNBA 球员获得超过三次 MVP，谢丽尔·斯武普斯（Sheryl Swoopes）、丽莎·莱斯利（Lisa Leslie）和劳伦·杰克逊（Lauren Jackson）各获得过三次。在 NBA 方面，卡里姆·阿卜杜尔-贾巴尔（Kareem Abdul-Jabbar）曾获得六次，迈克尔·乔丹（Michael Jordan）和比尔·拉塞尔（Bill Russell）各获得五次。

欧足联就候选人类型与因凡蒂诺展开讨论

欧洲足球管理机构欧足联（UEFA）详细阐述了其希望用来取代吉安尼·因凡蒂诺（Gianni Infantino）的国际足联（FIFA）主席类型——“一位受人尊敬、具有统一号召力且深耕足球领域的人物”。欧足联在周四与其 55 个成员协会开会后表示，该候选人应能“在全球范围内代表国际足联，并在不行使管理职能的情况下提供领导力”。此次会议旨在 11 月 18 日的截止日期前制定一项寻找因凡蒂诺竞争对手的战略。周四在柏林举行的会议中并未讨论具体候选人是谁，但可以确定该人选不会是欧足联主席亚历山大·切费林（Aleksander Ceferin），且为了在 211 个国际足联成员协会中争取全球选票，该候选人可能也不是欧洲人。切费林将竞选欧足联主席的第四个也是最后一个任期，下次选举将于 4 月举行。自 7 月以来，切费林一直领导足球官员开展全球行动，旨在 3 月的国际足联选举之前或期间，将因凡蒂诺从其日益行政化风格的主席之位上赶下台。因凡蒂诺试图将世界杯及其他赛事的股份出售给私人投资者的秘密计划（该计划已被否决），使得欧足联长期以来对国际足联项目和治理的不安演变为推举一名竞争对手与其对抗。切费林和全球足球领袖将于下周在苏黎世会见因凡蒂诺，这将是股权计划披露以来 37 人的国际足联理事会的首次会议。——美联社

牛仔队开辟新路径

在与俄勒冈大学的比赛前，莫里斯带领牛仔队沿着赫斯特街（Hester Street）走向斯蒂尔沃特的布恩·皮肯斯体育场（Boone Pickens Stadium），延续该项目的传统。这位执教第一年的教练表示，“你所感受到的能量……简直不可思议。”

在新任教练和四分卫的带领下，俄克拉荷马州立大学重回关注焦点，排名升至第18位

为了改善赛场表现，俄克拉荷马州立大学将目光投向了南方的德克萨斯州登顿市。通过看向那个方向，牛仔队在积分榜和排名上再次向上攀升。

俄克拉荷马州立大学从登顿的北德克萨斯大学请来了主教练埃里克·莫里斯，他随之带来了一批“绿军”（Mean Green）的人才，其中包括一名被视为海斯曼奖（Heisman Trophy）黑马候选人的四分卫德鲁·梅斯特梅克。

莫里斯和来自北德克萨斯大学的球员们帮助恢复了一个在长期执教的迈克·冈迪（Mike Gundy）带领下于近几个赛季下滑的项目的光彩。牛仔队目前战绩为 3-1，在最新的美联社（AP）投票中排名第18位。他们的履历中有一场标志性胜利——击败了当时排名第6的俄勒冈大学，以及自 2023年11月25日 以来首场 Big 12 联盟的胜利（击败西弗吉尼亚大学）。

牛仔队是本赛季的惊喜之一，与排名第8的杨百慕格大学（BYU，4-0）、第11的德克萨斯理工大学（Texas Tech，5-0）、第12的犹他大学（Utah，4-0）以及第22的休斯顿大学（Houston，4-1）一样，处于联盟竞争的中心。在这些球队中，牛仔队仅需面对休斯顿大学（10月17日）和红骑士队（Red Raiders，11月14日）。

步行仪式

莫里斯被告知，只要建立起体系，就能看到增长。这是前俄克拉荷马州立大学明星四分卫布兰登·威登（Brandon Weeden）传达的信息。

“他告诉我，‘嘿，教练，如果你能让这台机器运转起来，你会感到惊讶。如果你在下面点把火，它会迅速燃烧，产生你从未见过的惊人效果，’”莫里斯解释道。他的球队上周休息，将于周六对阵中佛罗里达大学（UCF）。“看到这一点，以及人们如此关心这个项目、如此关心这所大学，在获胜后看到他们的笑脸，真的很有成就感。”

莫里斯接手的牛仔队在上一赛季的战绩仅为 1-11。他彻底调整了阵容，引入了 91 名新成员，其中包括 18 名曾在 2025 年战绩为 12-2 的“绿军”队中与他共事的球员。

莫里斯时代起步较为艰难，牛仔队在对阵塔尔萨大学（Tulsa）的比赛中以 10-24 告负。但他们迅速反弹，以 39-31 爆冷击败鸭队（Ducks），这是该项目自 2022年1月1日 击败排名第5的圣母大学以来，首次战胜美联社前六名的球队。

得益于已故的 T. 布恩·皮肯斯（T. Boone Pickens）的捐赠，这是一个资金充足的项目。正如莫里斯所发现的，这个项目同样拥有深厚的传统。他对“步行仪式”（The Walk）赞不绝口，这是赛前的一项橄榄球仪式，球队、教练、行进乐队和啦啦队沿着赫斯特街走向布恩·皮肯斯体育场。

“到目前为止，我在这里最喜欢的事情就是这个，”莫里斯说。“……其中你感受到的能量简直不可思议。”

新星

这是一个令人自豪的项目，多年来涌现出了许多杰出球员，例如巴里·桑德斯、瑟曼·托马斯、德兹·布赖恩特、梅森·鲁道夫、丘巴·哈巴德和威登等人。

梅斯蒂梅克正试图将自己的名字加入到这份卓越的名单之中。他最初并非海斯曼奖的热门人选，但现在已被提及。

莫里斯给了梅斯蒂梅克在北德克萨斯大学以自由球员（walk-on）身份加入的机会，而他在上赛季作为红衫一年级新生时，传球码数领跑 FBS（大学橄榄球第一级别）。他正追随莫里斯执教、培养或招募的其他四分卫的脚步，这份名单包括帕特里克·马霍姆斯、贝克·梅菲尔德和卡姆·沃德。

在去年为北德克萨斯大学贡献了 4,379 码传球码数并领跑 FBS 排名后，梅斯蒂梅克现在正处于一个更大的舞台上展示他的臂力。

“人们一直在讨论大学城，以及在大学城里橄榄球会有多么不同，而斯蒂尔沃特大概就是这种定义的缩影，”梅斯蒂梅克说道，他已连续 19 场比赛传球码数至少达到 200 码。“在与俄勒冈大学的第一场比赛中，我很快就意识到了这一点。能得到球迷的支持真是太棒了，这让获胜变得更加有趣。”

早期休息周

本周之后，16 支球队中的 11 支将在进行一半比赛前完成他们的休息周。堪萨斯大学、杨百翰大学和亚利桑那州立大学则开始了连续九周比赛的阶段。

对于某些球队来说，休息周来得正是时候。科罗拉多大学已遭遇三连败，需要时间重新评估其四分卫困境。艾萨克·威尔逊在接替朱利安·“朱朱”·刘易斯后，在上周末以 29-7 负于德克萨斯理工大学的比赛中表现挣扎。

“迟早地，你必须渴望胜利的程度超过你渴望目前所拥有的东西，”教练迪昂·桑德斯说道。“你对获胜的渴望必须超过对支票、喝彩或狂热的渴望。”

大学橄榄球预测

Power 4 球队寻求关键联赛胜利

作者：埃里克·奥尔森 / 美联社

现在称其为“分水岭周六”还为时过早，但本周的大学橄榄球赛程将开始确立 Power Four 联盟中的等级顺序。

在 SEC 联盟中，乔治亚大学与阿拉巴马大学的获胜者将在联赛中取得 4-0 的战绩，并与德克萨斯大学一起处于领先地位，前提是长角牛队在红河宿敌赛中击败俄克拉荷马大学。

在 Big Ten 联盟中，俄亥俄州立大学在马蹄形体育场对阵马里兰大学，任务较为轻松；但印第安纳大学在内布拉斯加大学将迎来迄今为止最艰难的比赛，而俄勒冈大学则主场迎战进步巨大的加州大学洛杉矶分校（UCLA）。

在 ACC 联盟中，迈阿密大学本周休息，而联赛中另外两支保持不败的球队则试图紧跟步伐。匹兹堡大学主场迎战北卡罗来纳大学，杜克大学则客场挑战佐治亚理工学院。

在 Big 12 联盟中，德克萨斯理工大学和令人惊喜的贝勒大学休息，而杨百翰大学在主场对阵爱荷亚州立大学，犹他大学主场迎战堪萨斯大学。俄克拉荷马州立大学可以通过在主场击败中佛罗里达大学（UCF）来证明自己是竞争者。

以下是预测，含排名与投注盘口：

第 2 名乔治亚大学客场对阵第 6 名阿拉巴马大学：基隆·罗素和红潮队势头强劲且拥有主场之利，只要热带风暴不干扰。乔治亚大学巨大的进攻数据是面对排名在 FBS 后四分之一的赛程取得的。盘口：阿拉巴马大学领先 2. 分。预测：阿拉巴马大学 31-28。

第 7 名印第安纳大学客场对阵内布拉斯加大学：跑卫 Turbo Richard-Lee Bebee Jr. 和接球手 Charlie Becker-Nick Marsh 是印第安纳大学最强的组合之一，也是全美顶尖组合之一。玉米壳队在面对前 25 名对手时已连续输掉 30 场。盘口：印第安纳大学领先 $7 \frac{1}{2}$ 分。预测：印第安纳大学 38-17。

中佛罗里达大学（UCF）客场对阵第 18 名俄克拉荷马州立大学：UCF 上周在休斯顿队比赛的第三节浪费了 17 分的领先优势，且存在伤病问题，并带着 11 场客场连败的记录前往斯蒂尔沃特。牛仔队上周休息。盘口：俄克拉荷马州立大学领先 9. 分。预测：俄克拉荷马州立大学 35-13。

第 21 名加州大学洛杉矶分校（UCLA）客场对阵第 13 名俄勒冈大学：棕熊队出人意料地以 4-0 开局，且具备爆发得分能力。俄勒冈大学同样如此，而且鸭队拥有主场优势，在 Dylan Raiola 接替因脑震荡缺阵的 Dante Moore 担任四分卫的情况下，局势乐观。盘口：俄勒冈大学领先 11. 分。预测：俄勒冈大学 34-28。

北卡罗来纳大学客场对阵第 25 名匹兹堡大学：美洲豹队五年级四分卫 Holden Geriner 将在 Mason Heintschel（前十字韧带断裂）缺阵的情况下迎来职业生涯首次首发。在比尔·贝利契克率领下，天蓝队客场战绩为 1-5。盘口：匹兹堡大学领先 4. 分。预测：匹兹堡大学 32-26。

其余赛事

第1名德克萨斯大学 vs. 俄克拉荷马大学（俄克拉荷马 +$8 \frac{1}{2}$）在达拉斯：俄克拉荷马大学的防守足够强，能让比赛保持胶着，四分卫约翰·马蒂尔（John Mateer）本周得到了布伦特·维纳布尔斯（Brent Venables）的信任。但这并不改变苏诺者队（Sooners）进攻端一团糟的事实……德克萨斯 21-14。

斯坦福大学 vs. 第3名圣母大学（圣母 -$38 \frac{1}{2}$）：战斗爱尔兰人队（Fighting Irish）上周在对阵北卡罗来纳大学时难以迅速锁定胜局。面对斯坦福大学，这应该不是问题，因为后者在东部时区连续作战……圣母大学 52-10. 马里兰大学 vs. 第5名俄亥俄州立大学（俄亥俄 -$34 \frac{1}{2}$）：自从马里兰大学加入 Big Ten 联盟以来，在九次交手中，Buckeyes 队有六次得分至少达到 52 分。这次他们可能会拿到 62 分或更多……俄亥俄州立大学 62-21。

爱荷华州立大学 vs. 第8名杨百慕格大学（BYU）（BYU -10）：美洲狮队（Cougars）在普罗沃的周五夜晚表现强悍，且正追求连续第三次以 5-0 开局。艾登·弗洛拉（Aiden Flora）在对阵西弗吉尼亚大学时的惊人产出无法在旋风队（Cyclones）身上复制……BYU 39-19。 第9名密西西比大学 vs. 范德比尔特大学（范德比尔特 +9）：反叛者队（Rebels）多出了一周时间来反思输给佛罗里达大学的比赛。让我们看看他们是否能加强那个在 SEC 联盟中排名垫底的防守……密西西比 30-27。

第10名路易斯安那州立大学（LSU）vs. 肯塔基大学（肯塔基 +8）：LSU 的萨姆·莱维特（Sam Leavitt）有几次不错的表现，但每场比赛都至少投出了一个拦截。肯塔基大学在主场很强……LSU 27-24. 堪萨斯大学 vs. 第12名犹他大学（犹他 -15）：犹他队在休息一周后状态充分，场均仅失 10.3 分。韦肖恩·帕克（Wayshawn Parker）在对阵爱荷华州立大学时积累了 174 码冲球码数，在对阵杰伊霍克斯队（Jayhawks）时可能会再次爆发……犹他 35-13. 德克萨斯 A&M 大学 vs. 第14名密苏里大学（密苏里 -$3 \frac{1}{2}$）：老虎队的贾马尔·罗伯茨（Jamal Roberts）在对阵佛罗里达大学时冲球 211 码，场均 121 码，在 SEC 联盟中排名第二。本赛季还没有球员在对阵农工队（Aggies）时冲球达到 100 码……密苏里 27-21.

第15名田纳西大学（田纳西 -13 $^{1 / 2}$ ）vs. 阿肯色大学：预计志愿者队（Vols）将让德肖恩·毕晓普（DeSean Bishop）在阿肯色大学面前大显身手。野猪队（Razorbacks）已允许 15 次冲球达阵，与全美最高持平……田纳西 41-10。

南卡罗来纳大学 vs. 第16名佛罗里达大学（佛罗里达 -13）：由于接下来将连续对阵德克萨斯大学和乔治亚大学，鳄鱼队（Gators）希望尽快忘掉上周在密苏里大学发生的糟糕情况。一支处于混乱之中的斗鸡队（Gamecocks）正是最好的良药……佛罗里达 36-21。第19名南加州大学 vs. 宾夕法尼亚州立大学（宾州州立 -1）：山岳狮队（Nittany Lions）在力量上被西北大学压制，由于新教练马特·坎贝尔（Matt Campbell）在 Big Ten 联盟的开局为 0-2，球迷们开始感到不安。南加州大学在客场表现挣扎，且在四场比赛中第二次在东部时区作战……宾夕法尼亚州立大学 27-24.

第20名爱荷华大学 vs. 华盛顿大学（华盛顿 -3）：山鹰队（Hawkeyes）可能会失去四分卫汉克·布朗（Hank Brown），他在对阵俄亥俄州立大学时似乎肩部受伤，周五晚上的比赛能否出战尚不确定……华盛顿 23-17。

第22名休斯顿大学 vs. 堪萨斯州立大学（堪萨斯州立 -$2 \frac{1}{2}$ ）：一个有趣的细节是，休斯顿大学四分卫康纳·魏格曼（Conner Weigman）将面对由他前德克萨斯 A&M 大学进攻协调员科林·克莱恩（Collin Klein）执教的球队，后者在 2024 年将他弃用并由马塞尔·里德（Marcel Reed）接替……堪萨斯州立 30-27。

第23名博伊西州立大学 vs. 弗雷斯诺州立大学（弗雷斯诺 +$6 \frac{1}{2}$ ）：两队将争夺“牛奶罐奖杯”（Milk Can Trophy），斗牛犬队（Bulldogs）已持有该奖杯三年。弗雷斯诺州立大学在过去四场比赛中总共仅失 43 分……弗雷斯诺州立 23-22。

9 月 29 日，位于埃文斯顿中央街 3001 号的吉奇加明原住民国家博物馆（Gichigamiin Indigenous Nations Museum）外观，该博物馆在经过大规模翻修后准备重新开放。

重塑其叙事

在埃文斯顿的 Gichigamiin 原住民国家博物馆，新展品仅仅是一个开始

作者：Hannah Edgar 为《芝加哥论坛报》撰写

当参观者在原住民日（一年中参观人数最多的日子）周一抵达位于埃文斯顿的 Gichigamiin 原住民国家博物馆时，他们将看到在地面层和二层新安装的展览。

该博物馆在自 7 月下旬关闭后，于 10 月 1 日重新开放。其新的核心展览“原住民芝加哥”（Indigenous Chicago）改编自纽伯里图书馆（Newberry Library）近期同名的展览，并增加了 Gichigamiin 版本的特定内容：来自博物馆馆藏的独木舟，以及 Jigzibik（波塔瓦托米语，意为“在河边”）的模型，这是一个在欧文公园（Irving Park）社区正在进行的以原住民为中心的经济适用房项目。

楼上是一个新的互动儿童展览“我们世界的馈赠”（Gifts of Our World），以及“芝加哥的胡拉舞遗产”（Chicago's Legacy Hula），后者源自菲尔德博物馆（Field Museum）近期的一次展览。（夏威夷原住民和太平洋岛民的社区中心——芝加哥 Aloha 中心，在翻修其自身空间期间，与 Gichigamiin 博物馆共享空间。）

但新展览仅仅是 Gichigamiin 博物馆近年来重大变革中最可见的成果，而变革始于其名称。该博物馆于 1977, 年成立时名为米切尔美国印第安人博物馆（Mitchell Museum of the American Indian），在 2024 年更名为 Gichigamiin，这是 Anishinaabemowin 语中意为“五大湖”的词汇。

“我给我在该地区认识的三位非常有成就的原住民打了电话，邀请他们加入董事会，”执行主任金·维格（Kim Vigue）说道。“我问的第一位说，‘如果你致力于更改名称，我就加入。’”

Gichigamiin 的董事会现在由原住民占多数，且博物馆现在由原住民领导：维格是一位奥奈达国（Oneida Nation）公民，也是梅诺米尼人（Menominee）的后裔，在联邦部落健康计划方面拥有深厚经验，她于 2021. 年加入该博物馆。对于博物馆在未来几年应如何演变，她有着清晰的愿景。

“几年前我带着孩子们来这里，当时我想，‘这里有很多物件。但故事在哪里，人们又在哪里？’”她说道。

为了重塑其叙事，Gichigamiin 博物馆将其范围缩小到五大湖地区，而非整个美国和加拿大。因此，它聘请了专门人员来监督文物遣返这一复杂过程，而涉及原住民文物时，这一过程需要特殊的敏感度。

博物馆正在仔细审查其馆藏的 10,000 件物品，以确定每件物品是否应保留、遣返或释放——以及如何操作——以符合 1990. 年的《美国原住民坟墓保护与遣返法》（Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act of 1990）。维格表示，她和同事们努力尝试“更进一步”。

“自从我们成为一家由原住民领导的博物馆以来，我们持有这样一种哲学：这些东西没有一样是属于我们的，”她说。“NAGPRA（适用于）具有文化意义或精神意义的事物，但这具有主观性。我们正寻求遣返或归还那些不一定在法律范围之内的物品。”

在继续转型的过程中，Gichigamiin 博物馆正倾向于策展方面的其他转变。在社区反馈调查中，原住民和非原住民观众都对环境管理问题表现出浓厚兴趣。

这体现在博物馆茂盛的原生植物园中，以及维格所说的“专注于关爱所有生物”的“我们世界的馈赠”展览中。

在之前的游戏区域，曾经用来支撑一个不准确的历史原住民住所模型的桦树枝，现已被重新组装，作为入口处的装饰装置。

评论《社会清算》 ★★★

索金传达了深刻的信息，但续作缺乏细微之处

作者：凯蒂·沃尔什 论坛新闻服务

如果说大卫·芬奇 2010 年的科技剧《社交网络》讲述的是马克·扎克伯格为了夺取 Facebook 财富而进行的法律斗争，那么 16 年后问世的亚伦·索金的《社交清算》则讲述了背负这份财富所意味着的沉重负担。扎克伯格本人可能无法预料，当他以“连接”为幌子创建 时，会在无意中向世界释放什么，但在 2020 年代的残酷光芒下，将它从早期的合作伙伴手中夺走是否真的值得？索金认为或许不值得，而且扎克伯格或许是最不适合掌舵 之船的人。

曾凭借《社交网络》剧本获得奥斯卡奖的索金，在续作中兼任编剧和导演。

这是他作为导演的第四部故事片，他的才华并不在镜头之后，而是在纸上。他是一位电视艺术家，而非电影艺术家，他的电影导演工作显得生硬，有时甚至笨拙，完全没有《社交网络》那种流畅感或细微之处。

然而，索金在对话沟通方面极其高效；即便他剧本中的角色没有一个说话像真实的人，但他们能以十足的风格和气派地传达他的观点。人们绝不会误解索金试图对他所讨论的任何主题表达什么。

但细致入微并非《社交清算》的目标，该片将《华尔街日报》发表的 2021 年“ 文件”泄露事件戏剧化。相反，索金

利用主流流行电影这一媒介，向那些可能没有阅读相关文章或没有关注举报人弗朗西斯·豪根（由奥斯卡奖得主麦基·麦迪逊饰演）证词的观众，深入传达“ 文件”中的重大披露。

他还指出，扎克伯格（杰里米·斯特朗 饰）如何反复操纵 的算法天平，为了最大化公司利润而牺牲人们的安全，甚至牺牲民主本身。为了让用户持续滚动屏幕并提高参与度，扎克伯格决定强调一项名为“有意义的社交互动”的指标，该指标奖励那些诱导愤怒的内容，从而导致网络极端主义。索金将此直接与 1 月 6 日的骚乱联系起来，虽然豪根确实就 在这些事件中的作用作证，但索金为了戏剧效果模糊了日期并压缩了时间线。

杰里米·艾伦·怀特饰演杰夫·霍维茨，一名《华尔街日报》负责 报道的调查记者。怀特处于一个《总统所有的人》的版本中，但面对的不是尼克松的走狗，而是社交尴尬的计算机工程师，而神秘的白宫现在变成了 总部。他的“深喉”变成了弗朗西斯，她多疑且胆怯，但她的道德准则战胜了对公司的忠诚。

看着斯特朗就像在观察一个 AI 生成的扎克伯格：模仿得惊人地准确，但总有些不对劲，因为这是一个完全不同的人。他姿态僵直，嘴部僵硬，到电影结束时，索金和斯特朗将扎克伯格描绘成一个完全反社会且无能的领导者，而他领导的公司规模是世界上最大国家的两倍。

在唯唯诺诺之辈和心腹的簇拥下，扎克伯格与外界如此隔绝，以至于当一名前顾问兼公开批评者（比尔·伯尔 饰）出现在他的国会证词准备现场时，扎克伯格对受到挑战感到完全困惑。他们的争论揭示出，除了金钱，他无法理解任何其他价值。

《社会清算》（The Social Reckoning）规模宏大、视野宽广，但其创意选择令人尴尬，带有典型的索金（Sorkin）式印记。这部电影给人的感觉不像是一部探讨我们最严峻的结构性社会弊端之复杂电影，而更像是一集《西翼》（The West Wing）或《新闻编辑室》（The Newsroom）的“特别篇”：一个人意识到自己能够带来改变，以及挥拳庆祝胜利究竟意味着什么。

罗德里戈在拍卖会上买下标志性礼服

来自新闻服务机构

今年早些时候，梅格·怀特（Meg White）在白色条纹乐队（White Stripes）2003年专辑《Elephant》封面上穿着的那件礼服在拍卖会上售出，最终落入了一位特别收藏家兼超级粉丝之手：奥利维亚·罗德里戈（Olivia Rodrigo）。

这位流行巨星告诉《好莱坞报道》（The Hollywood Reporter），她花费了“巨额资金”买下了这件由 Gunne Sax 设计的复古白色棉质镂空长裙。该礼服是朱利安拍卖行（Julien’s Auctions）举办的白色条纹乐队纪念品拍卖会的一部分。

根据最终拍卖价格，该礼服的最终成交价为 \$25,600，是该系列中迄今为止最昂贵的单品。

罗德里戈告诉《好莱坞报道》，她原计划在 8 月的 Daisy Chain Fields 音乐节舞台上穿着这件礼服，但后来决定放弃，因为天气“太（此处为脏话）热”了，她说：“如果我在冬天举办 Daisy Chain，也许可以穿它。”

在《Elephant》发行时年仅 5 周大的罗德里戈，长期以来一直表达过她对杰克·怀特（Jack White）和白色条纹乐队的热爱。

“我爱杰克·怀特。他就像我的英雄，”罗德里戈在 5 月参加《今夜秀》（Tonight Show）时谈到怀特，“他是史上最酷的家伙。

一个极好的人。总是坚持支持正确的事。”

这次白色条纹乐队的拍卖品来自底特律音乐人特雷西·梅·米勒（Tracee Mae Miller）的私人收藏，她是怀特的合作伙伴兼密友。

根据物品描述，罗德里戈买下的这件礼服“采用了微心形领口，高腰线处有褶边，主教袖在手腕处收紧并带有拉链细节，以及一件带有分层设计和裙摆褶边的飘逸落地长裙”。

《Kin》赢得 Kirkus 奖：塔亚里·琼斯（Tayari Jones）的小说《Kin》讲述了两位来自路易斯安那州小镇的黑人朋友的生活与时代，赢得了 Kirkus 小说奖。

保拉·科洛夫（Paula Colloff）的《捕捉恶魔：关于海湾海岸谋杀、欺骗与不公正的真实故事》（Catch the Devil: A True Story of Murder, Deception, and Injustice on the Gulf Coast）获得非虚构类奖项，伊丽莎白·阿塞维多（Elizabeth Acevedo）的《愤怒仅是阴影》（Anger Is Only a Shadow）被授予青少年文学奖。三位作者每人将获得 \$50,000 的现金奖金。

科尔森·怀特海德（Colson Whitehead）的《酷机器》（Cool Machine）、道格拉斯·斯图尔特（Douglas Stuart）的《约翰之约翰》（John of John）以及帕特里克·拉登·基夫（Patrick Radden Keefe）的《伦敦坠落》（London Falling）均在入围名单之列。

Kirkus 奖之前的获奖者包括怀特海德、乔伊·威廉姆斯（Joy Williams）和塔-内希·科茨（Ta-Nehisi Coates）。

戈斯与拉博夫将离婚：米娅·戈斯（Mia Goth）已申请与希亚·拉博夫（Shia LaBeouf）离婚，两人结婚近 10 年。

周二提交给洛杉矶县高等法院的申请书称，戈斯和拉博夫自 2025 年 7 月起一直分居。

两人在 2012 年拍摄《宁芙女曼》（Nymphomaniac: Vol. II）时相识并成为情侣，并于 2016 年结婚。他们曾在 2018 年分道扬镳并表示将离婚，但法律上仍保持婚姻关系，并在 2022 年育有一女。

戈斯正寻求获得这名 4 岁孩子的主要法律监护权和身体监护权，而拉博夫拥有探视权。她还请求法院拒绝任何一方的配偶赡养费。这是两人的首段婚姻。

10 月 9 日生日：歌手诺娜·亨德里克斯（Nona Hendryx） 82 岁。歌手杰克逊·布朗（Jackson Browne） 78 岁。演员斯科特·巴库拉（Scott Bakula） 72 岁。导演吉尔莫·德尔·托罗（Guillermo del Toro） 62 岁。歌手 P.J. 哈维（P.J. Harvey） 57 岁。演员可可·布朗（Cocoa Brown） 54 岁。演员布兰登·劳斯（Brandon Routh） 47 岁。喜剧演员梅丽莎·维拉塞诺尔（Melissa Villaseñor） 39 岁。演员泰勒·詹姆斯·威廉姆斯（Tyler James Williams） 34 岁。歌手斯科蒂·麦克里里（Scotty McCreery） 33 岁。

伴侣渴望更亲密的关系，但配偶仍不感兴趣

R. 埃里克·托马斯 (R. Eric Thomas) 的“询问埃里克” (ASKING ERIC)

亲爱的埃里克：我和结婚 12 年的配偶之间没有争吵、争执或辱骂；除了在性欲方面，我们通常意见一致。我们彼此尊重，但我承认，在多年回避这个问题以及对我为改变而付出的努力被忽视之后，我变得不再在乎了。

除了在关系初期，我的配偶从不主动发起性行为。偶尔，在长时间的间隔之后，她可能会要求我，但那总是感觉很勉强，受到时间的限制，且总是在我停止尝试很长一段时间之后才发生。

在 12 年里，我真的尝试过 14 次与她讨论这个问题。我说话语气平静，没有指责，并且在任何和所有方面都非常愿意做出改变，以使情况好转。

我解释了这件事的重要性及其对我日常情绪的负面影响。但我得到的却是完全没有回应。没有可以参考的信息，也没有改变的帮助。我学会了烹饪，成为了一个出色的管家，承担育儿工作，还充当按摩师，试图寻找任何能让她足够在乎的方法，但都没有用。我知道可能存在我没意识到的问题，但我无从得知。

我们很快将开始接受心理咨询。我会像往常一样提出同样的顾虑。

关于如何帮助她能更舒服地向我敞开心扉，以便我们能度过这个难关，您有什么建议吗？我深爱着她，希望成为她需要我成为的样子，让她获得幸福。

—— 渴望更亲近者

亲爱的“亲近者”：很高兴你计划就此事寻求咨询师的帮助。夫妻双方经常发现自己陷入某个问题中，重要的是要记住，你不需要独自解开每一个结。事实上，引入一个能够帮助翻译、缓解和澄清问题的中立第三方会更容易。

在参加这些咨询环节时，请提醒自己，你们双方都在应对关系中的沟通挑战。你们可能在，也可能不在清晰地倾听对方，并且你们连接的方式对双方来说似乎都行不通。性行为可能只是问题的一部分，而非根源。

因此，尽量不要将这些咨询环节视为你们共同解决你对妻子所抱顾虑的机会。这不是为了“修复”一个问题或改变她。

这是为了创造一个安全的空间，让你们双方能够交谈并倾听彼此，且在理想情况下，能更好地理解对方。

亲爱的埃里克：我是一名老人，我已经厌倦了同龄的朋友们总是想要帮忙，并假设我会做超出我意愿的事情。

有些朋友变得越来越依赖我，想要我陪他们去看医生、做门诊手术、去超市，或者充当修理工。我已经开始设定界限，为自己发声，并说“不，我不能那样做”。

他们经常想要争论，或者说服我答应。坚持自己的立场很难，这让我感到不舒服且心生怨恨。

这是怎么回事？作为朋友，我觉得压力很大且不被感激。您能对此提供一些看法吗？

也许我根本没被视为朋友，而只是一个可以被利用的人。如能提供建议，我将不胜感激。 —— 团队协作参与者

亲爱的“团队”：你一直在努力设定并坚守界限，这很好。

有些人可能认为界限——甚至“不”这个词——会在关系中制造裂痕。但事实是，界限有助于保持关系的健康与安全。

具体到你的情况，那种你的需求或能力未被考虑的感觉导致了怨恨，因此设定界限对于防止怨恨增长是必要的。

那些争论令人担忧。你的朋友们可能认为你理所当然，或者他们认为你的“不”并不是坚决的拒绝。

他们也可能过于关注自身需求的巨大，而无法为你的需求留出空间。

在人生中走到需要他人帮助才能就诊，或无法轻松完成曾经能轻易处理的家务时，会让人感到非常无力。这同样可能令人恐惧。

能有一位随时可以提供帮助的朋友，这很可能是一种慰藉。而你的朋友们可能也没有其他可以求助的人。

这并不是说你应该简单地咬牙忍耐。恰恰相反；如果这已经变成了负担，或者你觉得自己的付出没有得到认可，那么健康的做法是暂停一下，确保你和你的朋友们能够清晰地听到彼此的想法，以免任何人感到不堪重负。

这可能意味着你只承担部分行程，并帮他们想想其他可以帮上忙的朋友。

导演敦促观众对纪录片的秘密保持沉默

作者：杰克·科伊尔 (Jake Coyle) 美联社 (ASSOCIATED PRESS)

内森·菲尔德 (Nathan Fielder) 和兰斯·奥彭海姆 (Lance Oppenheim) 执导的关于伊丽莎白·霍姆斯 (Elizabeth Holmes) 的纪录片《你能看到一切》最近在纽约电影节首映，不再是一个秘密。

自从在最近的特柳赖德电影节的一次惊喜且禁止携带手机的放映中亮相以来，《你能看到一切》立即成为了今年讨论度最高的电影之一。

这部时长近三小时的纪录片在三年间秘密拍摄，记录了医疗检测公司 Theranos 的创始人霍姆斯在入狱前的 34 天生活。但正如菲尔德的粉丝所预期的那样，《你能看到一切》在拍摄手法上几乎没有遵循常规路径。

在纽约，电影观众早在凌晨 3 点就聚集在林肯中心爱丽丝·塔利大厅 (Alice Tully Hall) 外排队，希望能参加晚上 8 点那场已售罄的放映。

《你能看到一切》将于 10 月 16 日由 A24 发行在电影院上映，它是对一段荒诞传奇的难以置信的尾声。即使是菲尔德也不确定该如何看待他与奥彭海姆所捕捉到的这段超现实旅程。

“直到今天，我仍在努力理解我经历了什么，”菲尔德在放映后的一个环节中说道。

在被判定四项欺诈和共谋重罪后，霍姆斯于 2023 年 5 月进入一家德克萨斯州监狱。在这场震惊硅谷的头条丑闻中，一个最令人惊讶且超现实的转折直到最近才被揭露。

霍姆斯选择让菲尔德——这位执导过《内森为你服务》(Nathan For You) 和《排练》(The Rehearsal) 的荒诞派喜剧演员——以及纪录片导演奥彭海姆，近距离拍摄她与伴侣（加州酒店继承人比利·埃文斯 Billy Evans）以及他们两个孩子的生活。

在他们生活的这个戏剧性时刻，菲尔德住在他们位于加州德尔马 (Del Mar) 海边住宅的一栋客房里。电影制作者从早到晚进行拍摄。菲尔德在床上或浴室里采访这对夫妇。

“我的意思是，我无法告诉你我们待在那里的感觉有多奇怪，”菲尔德说。“我不认为我会是那种你会在最后 34 天自由时光里想要陪伴在身边的人。我不是最能给人带来安慰的那种人。”

电影制作者偶然听说霍姆斯和埃文斯曾就拍摄纪录片的可能性联系过 A24。菲尔德最初并不认为这会变成一部长篇电影，但他很好奇想见见霍姆斯。

“当我见到她时，我记得有一种奇怪的体验，”菲尔德解释道。“她有时看起来如此真诚，但随后我就在想，（脏话），在梳理我的想法并意识到，‘我知道她在撒谎’。”

“参与这部电影的每个人都经历着类似的认知失调，”奥彭海姆说道，他此前还执导了最近上映的电影《黄金时段》(Primetime)，由罗伯特·帕丁森饰演《捕捉捕食者》(To Catch a Predator) 的主持人克里斯·汉森 (Chris Hansen)。“我们会分析当天的事件，但对于一些看似平凡的瞬间，没有人能达成共识。”

在《你能看到一切》中，菲尔德不仅试图把握关于霍姆斯的真实与虚假，还试图探讨关于身份、表演、虚构和控制的更深层问题。

电影制作者不止一次请求爱丽丝·塔利大厅的观众，在电影情节转换时，请保留其带来的惊喜转折。这包括在 A 级明星的帮助下进行的戏剧性重现以及其他细节刻画，所有这些都是为了更接近真相。

但即便菲尔德和奥彭海姆恳请观众不要讨论电影的过多细节，他们显然也非常渴望就《你能看到一切》展开辩论并试图理清其中的逻辑。

“随着每一个场景的发生，它就在那里，而我们在记录它。在任何时间点都没有关于接下来会发生什么的计划，”菲尔德说。“这是一条向我们敞开的道路，而我们只是沿着它走下去。”

评论：《最后一次：冬季 K2》 ★★★

落石、雪崩与贪婪：登山真实故事中的交汇

《最后的第一座：冬季K2》中的一名登山者。苹果电视（APPLE TV）

作者：乔斯林·诺韦克（Jocelyn Noveck） 美联社（ASSOCIATED PRESS）

在《最后的第一座：冬季K2》中，莉娜·莫伊（Lina Móey）在谈到她的丈夫——冰岛登山家约翰·斯诺里·西古里翁松（John Snorri Sigurjonsson）时解释道：“他必须去生活在边缘。”

她的意思是字面意义上的：他必须去生活在山峰的边缘。

在这种情况下，那是地球上最令人生畏的山峰：位于巴基斯坦和中国边境的K2峰。在阿米尔·巴-莱夫（Amir Bar-Lev）这部引人入胜且令人警醒的纪录片中，西古里翁松是主要刻画的人物之一。在他重返K2峰（世界第二高峰，仅次于珠穆朗玛峰）时，他已经是一名著名的登山家。他曾在夏季登顶，而现在，四年后，西古里翁松的目标是在冬季登顶。

在一位专家称之为“野蛮之山”的地方，这是一项从未有登山者实现的壮举。但在2021年的那个冬天，随着巴基斯坦放宽疫情期间的边境限制，数十名登山者看到了在极限登山领域实现这次“最后的第一座”的机会。

最终，有10人登顶。但巴-莱夫的电影绝非那种常见的、讲述决心和毅力如何带来精神与肉体胜利的励志之作。相反，这部电影审视了那种导致极限登山陷入危险——且在本案例中完全是灾难性的——商业化的愤世嫉俗的机会主义。

2021年登山过程中出现死亡事件已有详尽记录。但巴-莱夫通过拼接一些极其私密的素材（他本人并未在现场拍摄），选择假设观众并不知情，将最终的悲剧作为一个谜团保留到最后。

故事回溯到两个月前，西古里翁松在离开冰岛执行他的梦想任务时，与莫伊以及他们的六个孩子深情告别。

到达K2大本营后，西古里翁松与他的团队建立了深厚的情谊：著名的巴基斯坦登山家阿里·萨德帕拉（Ali Sadpara）及其儿子萨吉德（Sajid）。三人开始缓慢地适应山上的空气，为即将到来的艰苦考验做准备。

随后，尼泊尔团队抵达。他们的明星人物尼姆斯-戴·普尔贾（Nims-dai Purja）带着自己的使命：为国家创造历史。从历史上看，尼泊尔登山者在帮助西方人成就登山伟业方面起到了至关重要的作用，但他们自己却无法获得荣誉。因此，尽管普尔贾在抵达时给了阿里一个大大的拥抱，但其中牵扯到强烈的自尊心和民族自豪感。

一名登山者说：“尼姆斯戴是来赢的。”而他确实赢了——尽管他的团队为了达成目标似乎背叛了其他人，尽管此前与西古里翁松和萨德帕拉一家约定共同登顶，但他们在一个早晨独自出发了。

不久之后，一名经验丰富的登山者在坠落中丧生。此时，人们开始讨论全部回家。但情况变得复杂起来。巴基斯坦官员前来访问，并明确表示国家寄希望于这两位本国国民，以证明他们能与尼泊尔人相媲美。

与此同时，故事中真正的反派——Seven Summit Treks旅行公司——带来了一群付费客户，其中许多人严重缺乏经验。而且装备不足：当他们到达三号营地（登山者在此进行最后冲顶）时，他们缺乏生存一晚所需的帐篷和食物。

于是，他们恳求进入经验更丰富的登山者的帐篷，导致后者无法休息或进行妥善准备。

第二天，只有三名登山者进行了最后的冲顶。

这类个人瞬间是推动电影前进的关键。它们表明，冬季攀登K2的风险远不止于落石、雪崩、致命风暴和极寒。

这些风险还包括嫉妒、竞争心和自负等人性特质。

正如一名登山者所说：“登山不仅是对山的探索，更是对自我的探索。”

但对于我们来说，如此近距离地面对这样的悲剧，也令人感到不安。

“……一种重新利用和重复使用一切的哲学，”维格（Vigue）说道。

位于一楼的图书馆和学习空间也经过了重新粉刷和构思，将学术文本替换为原住民作者的著作，并装饰有由凯尔·马洛特（Kyle Malott，波卡贡波塔瓦托米族）和塞尔吉奥·塞隆（Sergio Ceron，奥托米-帕梅族）设计并绘制的天顶壁画。

明年年初，一座教学厨房将在相邻的建筑中落成。由于维格多年从事原住民健康计划工作，这个项目对她而言意义深远。她将其设想为“一个更宏大的‘从种子到餐桌’计划的一部分，而博物馆的花园将作为其核心。”

参观指南

Gichigamiin 原住民国家博物馆位于 3001 Central St., Evanston，开放时间为周一至周五上午 10 a.m. 至下午 5 p.m.，周六上午 10 a.m. 至下午 3 p.m.。周一（原住民日）免费入场，部落公民全年免费。普通门票为 $8，青少年和老年人为 $6。欲了解更多信息，请访问 gichigamiin-museum.org。

“我们也将其视为一项社区资源，可以支持家庭项目、访问演讲者、合作伙伴关系，以及那些可能无法获得自有商业厨房空间的原住民食品创业者，”她表示。

与此同时，博物馆以人为本的工作在内部和外部持续开展。访客服务与项目经理迈克尔·兰布尔（Michael Lamble）表示，他最喜欢的作品之一是由艺术家克里斯塔尔·拉特（Christal Ratt）创作的《Shemaginish》（在阿尼什纳比语中意为“战士”），这是一件用桦树皮重新打造的《星球大战》中曼达洛人的盔甲。

“人们会说，‘我完全不知道乔治·卢卡斯是从美国原住民那里偷走了波巴·费特（Boba Fett）的想法，’”兰布尔说。“不，美国原住民也看过《星球大战》。活生生的现代人也在接触媒体。”

评论百老汇剧目《女学生；或，非洲辣妹剧》（SCHOOL GIRLS; OR, THE AFRICAN MEAN GIRLS PLAY）

一场对少女时代的深刻乐观颂歌

Friedman Theatre) 演出的百老汇剧目《女学生；或，非洲版贱女孩剧》(School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play) 中。摄影：马修·墨菲 (MATTHEW MURPHY)

纽约 —— 有时，你需要观看同一部剧目的两个不同版本，才能理解一位真正具有启发性的舞台导演的价值：他们能将一个在叙事上可预测的剧本转化为一场极致的狂欢。

对我而言，《女学生；或，非洲版贱女孩剧》便是如此。这部由乔斯林·比奥 (Jocelyn Bioh) 创作的道德喜剧标题冗长，但在导演惠特尼·怀特 (Whitney White) 的改造下，它变成了一场在百老汇上演的、对少女时代深刻且乐观的颂歌。

这部剧现在拥有一种如此奔放的精神，以至于在 80 分钟的演出时长中，其喜悦感令人沉醉。

《女学生》很容易让人将其与另一部近期在百老汇上演、同样以教室为背景的剧目《约翰·普罗克特是反派》(John Proctor is the Villain) 进行比较。但这部新剧不仅是对优秀教师重要性的颂扬，它还赞美了少女时代的所有复杂性，同时让你对世界感到乐观。尽管其情节与蒂娜·费伊 (Tina Fey) 的《贱女孩》(Mean Girls) 有共同之处——而这两个强有力的词也出现在了标题中（在我看来，这很遗憾）。

1986 年，阿布里女子寄宿学校 (Aburi Girls Boarding School) 的日常生活被一名星探（由帕蒂娜·米勒饰演）的即将到来而打破。该星探正在寻找当年参加全球选美比赛的“加纳小姐”，这类比赛模仿的是像“环球小姐”和“世界小姐”这样的文化糟粕。这让所有女孩陷入了狂热，因为这不仅提供了在国际舞台上代表国家的机会，而且在她们看来，还是获得名利的一张个人入场券。

但女孩们已经建立了自己的等级制度。野心勃勃的奖学金学生、霸道女王保琳娜 (Paulina，由德妮·本顿饰演) 认为被选中是她的权利和应得之果，她的追随者们也对此唯命是从。然而，保琳娜的大计被埃里卡 (Ericka，由贾斯敏·艾米·罗杰斯饰演) 的到来而打乱。埃里卡是一个来自美国的浅肤色黑人女孩，父亲是加纳人，母亲是俄亥俄州的白人。星探本人曾参加过该比赛，她认为埃里卡是加纳获得关注的最佳途径，于是局势开始向不利于保琳娜的方向转变，这让充满关怀但务实的校长弗朗西斯 (Francis，由海瑟·艾丽西亚·西姆斯饰演) 感到苦恼。

任何经常去剧院的人在观看 10 分钟后都会意识到，这部剧很快就会得出这样一个观点：选美并不是聪明、年轻的非洲女孩评价自己的最佳方式，并且希望这些角色能认识到这个真理。即便如此，比奥绝非一个说教式的作家，她笔下这些想象出来的（我怀疑也基于她自身经验的）女孩被赋予了如此深厚的感情和理解，以至于她们构成了最有趣且最真实的演员群体。

在剧院中，让成年演员扮演可信的青少年绝非易事，但怀特不仅找到了一群愿意且能够深入体验 1980 年代加纳学校女孩内心世界的演员，而且这群演员似乎如此热爱他们的角色，以至于决心将这些精神跨越时空，带入塞缪尔·J·弗里德曼剧院。正因为这些演员都如此出色，且导演手法如此积极，剧本中的喜剧效果与心碎之情便从舞台上跃出，直击观众内心。

任何看过《Boop! 音乐剧》的人都深知罗杰斯的唱功。怀特通过将她选入一部自带表演性质的戏剧中，巧妙地利用她巨大的才华来探讨成为一名青少年——或者，见鬼，一名成年人——时的复杂心境：当你被竞争对手的天赋所震撼，被迫意识到当你审视这个世界上的大多数事物时，你很可能会发现，在几乎所有方面都有比你更优秀的人。

我一直认为《魔法坏女巫》（Wicked）之所以成功，是因为我们都将自己视为金发女孩（以传统方式受欢迎或美丽，但有着他人看不见的困扰）或绿皮肤女孩（渴望被接纳的局外人）中的一个，而《女学生》（School Girls）的两名主角绝对是沿着这些模式划分的。不过，Bioh 是一位足够聪明的编剧，他让我们相信，拥有美貌和宏亮嗓音的埃里卡，如果能不比新朋友们出众，反而会快乐得多。而保琳娜只需要有人相信她。

这证明了导演、两名主演以及其余出色的群演的功力，成员包括露西亚·阿拉穆、埃琳·莫顿、尼亚·奥切雷-萨福和乔丹·赖斯，他们饰演的女孩们拥有能让人精神振奋的个性与才智，帮助你更好地欣赏非洲女孩的活力，并意识到帮助她们发光的全球责任。

演员之间显而易见的化学反应令人无法抗拒

罗韦尔在期待已久的《我的经纪人！》电影中再次饰演导师角色

作者：Vivian Manning-Schaffel 《纽约时报》

在过去的六年里，你很可能已经通过《我的经纪人！》（Call My Agent!）认识了莉莉安·罗韦尔（Liliane Rovère）。这部法语剧集配有英文字幕，共四季，于 2021 年在 Netflix 上线，她在其中饰演阿尔莱特·阿泽马尔（Arlette Azémar）。或者，你可能在另一部 Netflix 剧集《艾米丽在巴黎》中认识这位法国演员，她饰演的是西尔维的母亲埃洛伊丝（Héloise），一位在夜生活领域叱咤风云的资深名媛。

现年 93 岁的罗韦尔在剧集中饰演阿尔莱特时留着凌乱的棕色卷发波波头，而在电影中则变成了银色且经过精心打理的发型。凭借幽默的机智和漫不经心的眨眼，她在银幕上依然是一个低调的抢戏者。在讨论她最新的项目——目前正在 Netflix 上线播出的《我的经纪人！电影版》时，她表现得比她的角色更加亲切。

这部电影是该剧集备受期待的新篇章，该剧在疫情期间成为了美国观众最喜爱的刷剧之选。

尽管她是一位资深演员，但许多美国观众直到看到《我的经纪人！》才认识罗韦尔。这或许可以解释为什么她对自己能成为人物专访的对象感到谦卑且困惑，她用深沉且沙哑的嗓音表达了这种感受。几乎在同一时间，她为自己的英语水平礼貌地道歉。她在 20 多岁时与爵士乐传奇人物切特·贝克（Chet Baker）交往两年期间，在纽约市磨练了英语——这是该剧创作者法妮·埃雷罗（Fanny Herrero）用来塑造阿尔莱特背景故事的众多真实生活经历之一。

在《我的经纪人！电影版》中，阿尔莱特是电影工业旧闻的宝库，也是 ASK 的创始合伙人（ASK 是一家如今已不存在的强大娱乐经纪公司），她已经从该行业退休。但她无法停止扮演一个直率、睿智的家长角色，引导那些前经纪人们。我们第一次见到她时，她正在照顾前超级经纪人、脾气火爆的安德烈亚（Andréa，卡米尔·科廷饰），后者在拍摄首部电影前几天失去了她的领衔主演。

片中少量英语对话以及美国明星乔治·克鲁尼（George Clooney）和伊娃·朗格利亚（Eva Longoria）的客串，应该能照顾到这部电影的跨大西洋观众。

“这部电影很时髦，”罗韦尔自豪地说，“如果你有一个好的剧本，你就拥有了电影的 50%。”

这是她决定重新接演这个角色的原因之一，但并非唯一原因。她无法抗拒演员之间显而易见的化学反应。“我们很幸运能成为一个相处融洽的小组，”罗韦尔说，“我们是好朋友。”

罗韦尔意识到这种情况多么罕见，在她长达六十年的法国戏剧、电视和电影生涯中，她扮演过从娇媚女子到祖母的各种角色。她与埃雷罗之间的协作关系同样独特。

“莉莉安讨厌走捷径，”埃雷罗说，“她总是带着标注好的剧本出现，然后我们一起寻找最准确的词汇，或者只有阿尔莱特才会有的反应。”

埃雷罗认为罗韦尔的另一个“非凡”之处在于她的脸。“这种美让我永不厌倦，它由力量、温柔和淘气组成，”埃雷罗说，并补充道，“在她开口说话之前，这张脸就代表了一个完整的世界。”

的确，在地球上生活了九个十年，为罗韦尔提供了丰富的一生经历。

莉莉安·罗韦尔（Liliane Rovère），7 月 21 日拍摄于巴黎。她在《我的经纪人！电影版》中饰演阿尔莱特·阿泽马尔，她是 ASK 前员工们心中睿智的家长。LUCIE CIPOLLA / 《纽约时报》

她 1933 年出生于巴黎，原名莉莉安·库基尔（Liliane Cukier）。在回忆 1937 年版本的《白雪公主》（Blanche Neige）如何让她领略电影的魔力时，她的神情变得兴奋。她那时会拉着母亲去看电影，并在家里模仿场景，不过她说，她当时太害羞了，不敢宣布自己想成为一名电影演员的志向。

1940年德国入侵法国北部时，罗维尔的犹太家庭向南逃亡。“我戴着黄星，”她说道。她的姓氏从库基尔（Cukier）改为奥贝尔（Aubert），并由多明我会的修女隐藏保护了两年。

1954年，当时21岁的罗维尔被父母送到纽约的一位叔叔家居住，在那里她遇到了贝克，两人维持了两年的关系。在回到圣日耳曼-德-普雷（Saint-Germain-des-Prés）的家中后，她在一家爵士俱乐部洗盘子以维持生计。

谈到人生中的那段时期，她说：“我挺过来了。我是一个诚实的女孩子。我从未对金钱和成功感兴趣。”

表演并非她的关注领域，直到23岁时，罗维尔的母亲提出出资让她在著名的西蒙课程（Cours Simon）戏剧学校学习。她从戏剧起步，最终在电影和电视节目中获得角色。

谈到1971年的首部电影《玛丽安娜的肖像》（Portrait of Marianne）时，她笑着说：“我演得很糟糕。”但罗维尔在20世纪70年代通过作者导演贝尔特兰·布利耶（Bertrand Blier）找到了自己的方向，随后又出演了贝尔特兰·塔夫尼耶（Bertrand Tavernier）以爵士乐为中心的美国电影《午夜圆舞曲》（Round Midnight，1986年），以及埃马努埃莱·芬基尔（Emanuele Finkiel）关于大屠杀的电影《旅程》（Voyages，1999年）。

但角色来来去去，她说：“很多时候我没有工作。但我从未动摇。”

对于一个似乎愿意通过虚构的化身来坦诚个人历史的人来说，有些轶事她只愿意在自己的条件下分享。关于她与被称为“比比”的爵士贝斯手吉尔伯特·罗维尔（Gilbert Rovère）婚姻的问题，都被引导至她在女儿的要求下撰写的2019年回忆录《莉莉的疯狂生活》（Les Folles Vie de Lili）。或许阿莱特（Arlette）提供了线索：

在电影《呼叫我的经纪人！》（Call My Agent! The Movie）结尾的一段独白揭示了阿莱特一直以来是如何成为安德烈亚（Andréa）电影——以及ASK经纪公司——背后的动力。

谈到阿莱特，罗维尔说：“我从未预料到我会演活我的人生。我从未与任何人谈论过这件事。认识我的人，从他们遇见我的那天起就了解我。”

尽管两人如此相似，但他们确实存在差异：与阿莱特不同，罗维尔无法想象退休。事实上，她仍然有

想要挑战的角色，类似于玛吉·史密斯（Maggie Smith）在《戈斯福德公园》（Gosford Park）中饰演的康斯坦斯·特伦瑟姆（Constance Trentham）。作为一名在80多岁和90多岁获得国际认可的终身职业演员，罗维尔意识到成功是相对的，且可能是一场持久战。

“能用你热爱的事物维持生计是一种巨大的幸福，但这很困难，”她说。“你必须耐心。你必须奋斗。我相信世界没有我也能运转。但这就是我喜欢做的事，我依然热爱表演。”

创作者始终将普格视为主角

演员们对将卡赞笔下的凯西故事变为现实感到兴奋

作者：伊冯娜·比利亚雷亚尔 洛杉矶时报

好莱坞充斥着引发不满和激烈争论的文学改编作品。在上映之前，佐伊·卡赞对约翰·斯坦贝克1952年宏大杰作《伊甸东》的诠释，就在社交媒体上引起了原著忠实读者的激烈讨论。

大部分讨论围绕着卡赞在 Netflix 最近播出的七集限定剧集中，如何塑造书中臭名昭著的反派角色凯西·艾姆斯这一创意选择。

斯坦贝克这部跨越数代人的传奇故事通过特拉斯克家族和汉密尔顿家族这两个交织在一起的命运，沉思家庭、选择的力量以及善恶的本质——深入探讨了该隐与亚伯以及亚当与夏娃堕落的圣经故事。凯西（后来被称为凯特）在故事中扮演着一个令人胆寒且具有破坏性的力量。

卡赞在剧中删减了汉密尔顿家族的大部分故事，而将中心放在凯西（佛罗伦萨·普格 饰）身上，她的到来改变了特拉斯克兄弟——亚当（克里斯托弗·阿博特 饰）和查尔斯（迈克·法斯特 饰）的生活。通过这种方式，卡赞大胆地将这个被认为是文学史上最典型的纯粹邪恶象征的角色人性化；斯坦贝克曾将她描述为一个天生没有良知或仁慈的“精神怪物”。

“我试图通过不过多地接触网络来保护我的心理健康，”卡赞在最近一个工作日从伦敦进行的视频通话中说道。“我认为这个角色能激起人们如此强烈的情绪，对我来说并不奇怪。”

“……我很期待人们在真正看到我们创作的作品，而不仅仅是凭空预期时，会有什么样的想法。”

当卡赞这位不断扩展镜头后创意版图的演员在 2019 年首次提出该剧构思，并被问及她心目中的凯西由谁饰演时，她回答道：“我心中有一个人。”她看过普格在《仲夏夜惊魂》、《麦克白夫人》和《小妇人》中的表现，对这位演员的极致女性气质与其男性能量共存的状态感到惊叹。

“那个女孩的戏路之宽……我想，如果有人能演好这个角色，那就是她，她能演好凯西，”卡赞说。“这让我能够按照我的想法，将凯西写得复杂且神秘，且充满阴影与光芒。”

至于亚当和查尔斯，卡赞知道阿博特和法斯特能够描绘出超越“先天与后天”争论二元对立的心理细微差别：“我希望亚当能让人感受到他的真实本性，以及他父亲强加给他的本性……而且我知道查尔斯也需要这一点。”

改编经典绝非易事，尤其是已经有过改编先例的作品。卡赞选择剖析传承与代际阴影的《伊甸东》十分恰当：她的祖父埃利亚·卡赞曾执导著名的 1955 年电影版，由詹姆斯·迪恩主演。Netflix 系列剧的演员们渴望观众能看到她的愿景变为现实。这段对普格、阿博特和法斯特的采访经过编辑以确保清晰度和篇幅。

问：你第一次接触这本书是什么时候？ 法斯特：我第一次接触这个故事是通过詹姆斯·迪恩主演、埃利亚·卡赞执导的电影。那是一部

我看过，尤其是在我刚搬到纽约想成为一名演员的时候。直到佐伊和弗洛伦斯问我是否有兴趣参与这个项目，我才拿起这本书。

普：我想应该是我的 20 岁出头时读了这本书。我直到最近为了准备这类对话才看了电影。现在我们进入宣传期，我正在重读这本书，以便能够微调我对内容的认知……（在这次改编中），每一章的每一个句子都注入了如此多的爱，这完全归功于佐伊出色的头脑以及她想要深入挖掘的能力。

艾博特：很多我最喜欢的书，在真正读完之前，我都拿起又放下过很多次——这本书也是这种情况，直到佐伊找我参与拍摄。我想，“好吧，这是一个终于（读完）的绝佳借口。”

问：这次改编在早期就因为以凯西为中心而在社交媒体上引发热议。弗洛伦斯，你是如何看待她的？

普：我想我还在尝试寻找一种措辞方式，以免完全激怒人们。我喜欢寻找那些人们自动将其视为反派的角色，并尝试寻找一种让人们爱上他们的方法——这是我最喜欢做的事情。

我读了这些剧集，我听了佐伊的想法，她希望故事从凯西的视角展开，凯西是她的英雄，而且自从她第一次读这本书以来就一直在支持凯西——知道我们不会简单地指责她邪恶，这太……令人兴奋了。我的职责就是尽可能地发挥我的技巧，以便能够为他们辩护。我相信我可以为她辩护，这虽然令人恐惧，但也非常酷。我深深地关心她。我理解她走过的路以及原因。她做了一些可怕的事情吗？绝对有。她是成长环境的产物吗？完全是。一个人在孩童时期被强奸后，不可能在余生中完全没事。

问：迈克，对于查尔斯这个被拒绝和嫉妒折磨的“该隐”原型，你感兴趣挖掘的是什么？

法：这个故事最神奇的地方——也是整部小说的主线——就是关于“timshel”（你可以选择）这个概念。一个人生命中发生了什么，他们承担的负担，以及随后做出的选择，以及在继续生活中的每一个瞬间。查尔斯立刻吸引了我。他身上有一种让我非常向往的东西——而伴随着这种吸引力的是一种恐惧感，你会说：“噢天哪，我不敢相信我即将投身其中去做这件事。”最终你会让自己臣服于它。这既可怕又令人深感兴奋。

问：克里斯，当佐伊找你饰演亚当时，你是否质疑过她其实是想让你演查尔斯？

艾：我习惯了被定型，所以我以为她搞错了。佐伊提到过关于男性能量和女性能量的想法——一个人表现出什么以及一个人实际持有的是什么，以及这两者之间的反转。在收到第一封邮件时，我想，“噢，你确定吗？”但我很兴奋能去探索这个角色的所有细微差别和层次。我以前看过电影，它（涵盖）的只有最后 100 页左右的内容。能扮演一个角色并见证一个人的完整一生是非常令人满足的，看到这个男人如何从一个流浪者、漂泊者变成一个坚毅、抑郁且僵化的老年人。

问：克里斯，在剧集的结尾时刻，你承担着一项艰巨的任务，即说出整个故事的核心词汇——timshel。

艾：我想那是最后一场戏。我不能说我当时在偷懒，但角色中风了，所以他就躺在那儿。在那样一个时刻，你只需要倾听。勋（李，饰演李）正在朗读圣经。你感受整个房间的氛围。我一次就拍成了。（普和法大笑。）

问：人们对《伊甸之东》有着深厚的情感。而且最近这部作品似乎再次兴起，甚至不仅仅是因为对这次改编的好奇。您认为这是为什么？

答：这是一个宏大的、关乎存在主义（的思考）。书中有大量相关的主题：流离失所、家庭、爱。书中的主题并不局限于某个特定时代。所有伟大的作品都是如此。

讲述恐同与暴力的细腻故事，展现了卡明（Cumming）的演技

从左起，Shakeel Kimotho、Iz Hesketh、艾伦·卡明（Alan Cumming）和 Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo 主演《Tip Toe》。STARZ

作者：罗伯特·劳埃德（Robert Lloyd） 洛杉矶时报

由罗素·T·戴维斯（Russell T Davies）创作、在 Starz 平台播出的优秀新剧《Tip Toe》以结局开篇：一名在曼彻斯特经营酒吧的男同性恋者利奥·斯特鲁瑟（Leo Struther，由演技惊人的艾伦·卡明饰演）死在自家门外的路灯上，一名女子在尖叫，而他的邻居克莱夫·戈斯（Clive Goss，由大卫·莫里森饰演）则在门廊上沉重地喘息。随后，就像如今许多剧集一样，故事回溯到过去——这里回溯了 10 天——讲述导致这一结局的经过。

因此，你从一开始就被预告了悲剧，尽管在五集内容中并非所有发生的事都是悲剧性的——我们看到的一些场景是甜蜜的，甚至是带有庆祝色彩的——人们可能会暂时忘记这一切将走向何方，甚至相信我们已经看到的剧情会有不同的结局。

剧集在相对轻松的氛围中展开。利奥在追逐一名偷走他笔记本电脑的一夜情对象时，发现自己被锁在房门外。他当时只穿着内衣，于是去隔壁询问是否可以借用电话，好联系他的朋友斯特凡妮（Stephanie，由伊丽莎白·贝灵顿饰演）给他带一把备用钥匙。在这里，我们见到了戈斯一家：克莱夫是一名失业电工；他的妻子玛丽（Marie，由 Pooky Quesnel 饰演）并不喜欢克莱夫；16 岁的儿子乔治（George，由杰克逊·康纳饰演）是名深柜男同性恋；以及 25 岁的儿子索尔（Saul，由约瑟夫·埃文斯饰演），一个住在家里、性格随和的帅小伙，他秘密地在 OnlyFans 上赚钱，并接纳每个人的真实样子。

利奥和戈斯一家在 14 年间一直保持着礼貌但有距离的邻里关系，然而他们的生活即将紧密交织，并产生灾难性的结果。

出于某种近乎刻意且令人不安的友好，或者是不想在利奥下次被锁在门外时再次处理此事，克莱夫复制了一把利奥的钥匙，并在自己的门边安装了一个钥匙存放盒。（根据“契诃夫之枪”原则，第 1 集中复制的钥匙必然会在戴维斯认为合适的后续情节中被插入锁孔。）随后，利奥在自己的酒吧里给了克莱夫一份工作。

利奥的酒吧“Spit and Polish”位于曼彻斯特历史悠久的“同志村”运河街上。这里是他的员工和常客的避风港。齐（Zee，由 Iz Hesketh 饰演）在公开自己是跨性别女性后，因害怕新室友而一直潜伏在酒吧里睡觉；而梅尔巴（Melba，由保罗·里斯饰演，演技精湛）曾是一名变装表演者，他像《Cheers》里的 Norm 一样把持着吧台的一端，并暗恋着利奥。

从这里开始，事情将普遍地走向恶化，叙事呈现出一种不断升级的误解——这种误解并非指无心之失或简单的理解偏差（尽管这其中包含一部分），而是一种当代的心智习惯：盲目、对事实封闭，却对阴谋论敞开。

该剧由彼得·霍尔（Peter Hoar）执导，观看过程令人不适，但构思精巧，表演细腻，既令人振奋又令人沮丧，既绝望又充满希望。戴维斯有想要表达的观点——将主角吊死并非含蓄之举——但他的对话在轻盈中承载了巨大的分量；长对话如压缩的小剧场般起伏波动。如果说剧情弧线有些程式化，那么其中的角色，无论是克莱夫还是利奥，都具有完整的人性。他们代表着比自身更宏大的事物，但他们同时也代表了他们自己。

《Tip Toe》是为这个恐同情绪激增和反同暴力盛行的时代而创作的。“美国总统给了这些人攻击我们的许可，”梅尔巴在某个深夜与利奥坐在运河边时说道。作为剧中的黑暗预言家，他赋予了这部剧标题。

“这是一场风暴，是一股潮汐，是一场巨大的海啸。我们现在正处于其中

“如果你在 1996 年问我，你认为 2026 年会是什么样子，我会说‘那是光辉岁月’……但他们欺骗了我们，不是吗？他们让我们全部现身，所以现在我们站在开阔地，等着他们把我们射杀。我以前走进房间时会直接说：‘哒哒！’而现在我踮起脚尖走，以防万一。”

星座运势

如果你的生日是 10 月 9 日：在今年的剩余时间里，你将遇到更少的问题，并获得来自宇宙更多的帮助，比之前的情况要好。在你的生日月份接近尾声时，某种信念可能会被凸显——要么是某种需要你认可的新事物，要么是某种到了该质疑的既有事物。

白羊座（3 月 21 日-4 月 19 日）：周末的日子还不错，下一个积极的工作日是下周三。请据此制定策略。

金牛座（4 月 20 日-5 月 20 日）：虽然你可能想在今天促成某些事情，或者至少处理好遗留问题，但宇宙可能并不像你希望的那样配合。

双子座（5 月 21 日-6 月 20 日）：虽然今天不适合开始任何事情，但对于正在进行的工作来说是个好日子，你可能会获得比预期更多的灵感。

巨蟹座（6 月 21 日-7 月 22 日）：今天理智与情感可能会在家庭中达成统一；如果等到明天再执行，新的见解可能会结出硕果。保持对直觉的关注，不要忽视任何新产生的想法。

狮子座（7 月 23 日-8 月 22 日）：任何财务想法都应搁置，直到月中左右，届时星象将为成功提供一个显著更稳固的基础。

处女座（8 月 23 日-9 月 22 日）：虽然你的思路可能很清晰，但任何参与财务协作或合资企业的其他人可能显得毫无头绪。

天秤座（9 月 23 日-10 月 22 日）：你今天可能会非常关注自我——利用这种专注力来更多地了解自己，尤其是他人倾向于如何看待你。

天蝎座（10 月 23 日-11 月 21 日）：你的阴影面包含的不止是负面情绪——那里也可能隐藏着你最伟大的天赋。接下来的几天提供了一个难得的机会去探索内心并挖掘重大宝藏。

机会去探索内心并挖掘重大宝藏。射手座（11 月 22 日-12 月 21 日）：友谊和团体关联在接下来的几周内仍将是一个相当核心的主题。你的社交网络是你主要的影响因素之一；请确保你的价值观和目标保持一致。

摩羯座（12 月 22 日-1 月 19 日）：事业可能是首要关注点，见解可能会继续涌现。不过，今天不适合采取任何重大行动。

水瓶座（1 月 20 日-2 月 18 日）：追求更高层次的知识以扩展你的意识，但现在可能不是分享见解的最佳时机，旁观者现在可能不太容易接受。

双鱼座（2 月 19 日-3 月 20 日）：现在应该承认并倾听你对他人提出的计划的任何内心抵触。即使对方的动机是最好的，在今天糟糕的星象下，他们的建议也可能是错误的。

桥牌

双方均弱，南家发牌

Grand Avenue 作者：Mike Thompson

看到今天的牌局，读者们可能会摇头。北家只有一张 Q 和一张 J，怎么可能建议打大满贯（slam）？这手牌来自近期在欧洲举行的一场比赛，在那里，新的叫牌理念正不断被

叫牌过程：

南家< / td><>西家< / ><>北家< / ><>东家< / >< / tr><><>2♣< / ><>过< / ><>2♥< / ><>过< / >< / ><><>2NT< / ><>< / ><>4♣*< / ><>< / >< / ><><>4♦< / ><>< / ><>4♠< / ><>< / >< / table>

*0-3 分，无 K **方块，有大满贯意向 首攻牌：♣ 8

探索。北家此前已经否认拥有超过 3 分的高牌点或任何 K 级别的牌。在这种语境下，北家确实具有极强的大满贯潜力。南家叫 4♦ 是为了看看搭档还能提供什么。当北家通过叫牌确认其黑桃控制力时，南家很乐意叫大满贯。

这手怪牌出现了许多不同的叫牌序列，且只有两对搭档达到了大满贯。其中一对失败了。

来自土耳其的 Berrak Erkan 展示了正确的技巧。他用 A 抓住了首攻的梅花牌，随后打出黑桃 A，并在明手（dummy）中将一张黑桃吃掉。接着，他从明手出方块 9，当东家打出 8 时，他从手牌出小牌。这保证了无论方块分布如何，方块的输牌最多只有一张。如果东家在第一轮方块时弃牌，Erkan 会打出 A，然后再次向 Q 领牌。整体表现出色！

CHICAGO MARATHON

Temperatures running high

Conditions for the event are becoming less ideal as climate change warms race days, including Sunday

ing hydrated.

By Adriana Pérez CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Toward the middle of the day Sunday, as tens of thousands of runners race in the Bank of America Chicago Marathon, temperatures are forecast to climb into the upper 60s to mid-70s.

It's not the worst kind of weather for a long run. But it is unseasonably warm — the normal high for Oct. 11 is 65 degrees — and “it’s less than ideal,” said George Chiampas, chief medical and safety officer for the marathon since 2007 and an emergency physician at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.

"Everybody should respect the weather," he told the Tribune. So organizers are asking participants to heed their warning system's yellow flag for Sunday by adjusting their pace, slowing down and stay-

Research has identified a temperature “sweet spot” that can optimize runners’ performance. But an analysis by nonprofit Climate Central last year found that 190 of 221 global races will see a decline in odds for optimal weather conditions by 2045 — including the eight Abbott World Marathon Majors, one of which is Chicago’s — as global temperatures rise from human-caused climate change.

‘We need to be speaking out’

High school and college students across Illinois protest sexual violence

By Kate Perez, Allison Kiehl and Shun Graves CHICAGO TRIBUNE

By noon Thursday, the normally quiet quad at the University of Illinois Chicago was filled with about three dozen students holding protest signs and passing out flyers condemning sexual violence. A colorful, temporary chalk mural covered the sidewalk outside the Lecture Center Building B with messages such as “We are Jane Doe” and “Stop Victim Blaming” written in eye-catching script.

UIC is one of several campuses in Chicago and around the state where students are protesting after a two-year-old sexual violence case resurfaced last month at Cornell University. A woman referred to as “Jane Doe” filed a civil suit last month after a prosecutor declined to pursue criminal charges against seven men she alleges raped her in 2024 while she was intoxicated at a fraternity party on the Ivy League school’s Ithaca, New York, campus.

The reopening of a criminal investigation and appointment of a special prosecutor has shed new light on Cornell's and law enforcement's handling of the case – drawing national headlines and sparking conversations and outrage about sexual violence on campus. The outcry has prompted schools across the country to step up advocacy, resources and support to help students and sexual assault victims cope with the fallout.

This month, Illinois students in particular have seized the moment to raise awareness and speak about the prevalence of sexual assault and how authorities address it.

Thursday's “National Day of Action” prompted hundreds of students at Lincoln Park High School to walk out of class at midday in solidarity with “Stop Sexual Violence” protests at UIC and Southern Illinois University Edwardsville downstate.

Between chants on UIC's quad

Thursday afternoon, student speakers took to a megaphone to talk about the importance of accountability and demand justice in the Cornell sexual violence incident. Nova Mohiuddin, 23, and an organizing member of the UIC student chapter of Chicago Socialist Alternative, was the first to take the mic.

"I think it is important to push back against sexism, especially when so many people are normalizing it," the fourth-year economics major said. "I think it's now more than ever the time when we need to be speaking out."

President declares a pause on Iran strikes

Trump ties hiatus to election; USS Lincoln returns to San Diego

By Josh Boak and Aamer Madhani ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said Thursday that he will not order a resumption of military strikes on Iran before the Nov. 3 midterm elections in the United States.

Trump's announcement was made the same day the USS Abraham Lincoln arrived to its home port in San Diego after a record-long deployment in support of the Iran war. There have been reports of crew stress and poor mental health, as well as supply shortages, including food and hygiene products.

Dozens of sailors stood atop the carrier as it glided past the city-scape of downtown San Diego and neared the dock where cheering families waited, carrying flowers and balloons and ringing cowbells.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth flew out to the carrier on Wednesday to give the crew the Presidential Unit Citation, the highest honor a unit can receive that is typically reserved for significant achievement in combat.

Hegseth pushed back against what he said were efforts to turn the “Lincoln into some sort of a symbol, a symbol of dysfunction or a symbol of low morale or a symbol of a failed mission.”

The Navy told lawmakers that eight sailors attempted suicide during the record-setting deployment, though experts say that number is low in a strike group of 6,000 sailors over 10 months.

Trump, while stumping for Republicans this week, has hinted that he was confident that an endgame to the war could come in the days before or after the election, while also hinting that he remained

Preckwinkle proposes budget with stopgap fixes to plug gap

Cook County faces \$550 million shortfall

By A.D. Quig CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle painted a picture Thursday of a perfect storm striking county finances, with nastier weather ahead, while proposing a 2027 budget that will avoid tax increases but lean heavily on one-time fixes to plug a \$550 million gap.

Preckwinkle's administration plans to use a series of stopgap measures to help cover operations in lieu of new or increased taxes or layoffs in 2027 to bridge the shortfall left by a mix of federal healthcare cuts, rising employee pay and benefits costs and an expensive legal defeat preventing the county from using transportation “lockbox” dollars on its public safety offices.

While she said 2027 will be “a challenging year,” both Preckwinkle and county commissioners anticipate 2028’s budget pressures

MARATHON from Page A1

elsewhere in the country and the world. Most recently, in May, several people needed medical attention during multiple marathon events in the Netherlands due to high temperatures, with at least two participants requiring resuscitation, local media reported.

Andrew Pershing, chief program officer at Climate Central and lead analyst in the study into marathon heat, said that it represents the kind of decision-making that society is starting to grapple with because of climate change.

“We all are going to have to think about the fact that the weather conditions that we expect are shifting on us,” he said. “So whether it’s the weather conditions when you start school or when you start football practices in the summer, they’re very different now than they used to be, and they’re going to be even more different in another 20 years.”

Scientists studying how temperature affects a marathoner's speed have found that elite female runners perform their best at around 50 degrees, while elite male runners do so at 39. Elite runners are those in the top $1\%$ . Recreational female and male runners are fastest at 44 and 43 degrees, respectively. The favorability of race day conditions varies across different types of runners as weather factors interact with their body composition, biological sex and athletic skill.

The probability of having these optimal daily average temperatures on race days for elite men in the Chicago Marathon is projected to remain at $14\%$ through 2045 under climate change, the study found. Elite women will experience a $3\%$ decrease from a $57\%$ probability in the same time span.

The chances of optimal running temperatures will remain at 23% for recreational male runners in the Chicago Marathon over the next 20 years, and only drop from 25% by one percentage point for recreational female runners.

While projected decreases in the likelihood of good weather for future Chicago marathons are small or even nonexistent compared with other races, it doesn't mean race day temperatures can't turn out to be worse — or better, depending on how you look at it — for certain groups.

"With climate, you're always dealing with probabilities, and climate change is ultimately about how those probabilities shift because of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere," Pershing said. "We will look at ... how frequently do we expect to get temperatures near 70, near 50, near 40, at a location? And then we model how those probabilities are going to shift as the planet heats up."

Runners have also already experienced abnormal heat for the October race in previous years.

On the day of the 2021 Chicago Marathon, the average temperature was 18 degrees above normal at 75 degrees, according to weather service data. In 2007, the marathon had to be stopped as high temperatures reached the upper 80s, some 20 degrees above the normal high for that date. A 35-year-old runner with a heart condition died after collapsing on the course.

"There really wasn't a precedent in stopping a race because of heat," recalled Chiampas. "I think our decision in 2007, without question, established what we now have as, really, best practices for marathon medicine."

Beyond the high temperatures, he said, it was a “fairly excessive” humidity — in the 80%-85% range — that worsened running conditions that Sunday in October 2007.

“Runners, including elites, were having a very difficult day. We basically stopped the event so that we don't overwhelm the hospitals,” Chiampas said. “You know you can't beat the humidity, as a runner.”

Now, he feels the race is operationally able to support runners through a warm race day, with aid, water and medical stations, and a Biofreeze cooling zone 5 miles from the finish line.

In the last several years, Chiampas said, Chicago Marathon organizers have taken a closer look at the course and realized that, on a given day, temperatures can vary along the route.

“It’s not the same across all 26.2 miles,” Chiampas said.

Specifically, they've found temperatures can be between 3 and 5 degrees warmer between miles 14 and 19 — which include the West Loop, Greektown and Near West Side neighborhoods. This can be due to a variety of factors like being away from the cooling effect of the lake, a lack of trees and the predominance of heat-trapping asphalt and concrete. For instance, an early week forecast from the National Weather Service office in Chicago noted it would feel cooler Sunday near the Illinois shore.

"On Marathon Sunday, (runners) should be cognizant that when they go west, on the western part of our course, it's going to get a little bit warmer, especially if the sun is out," he said. "They're gonna be feeling good — 'I'm halfway across the marathon.' But it actually may get a little bit warmer."

HEAT, HUMIDITY AND FORECASTS

Alex Smith, 43, from Elmhurst, can attest to the difference humidity can make. He has kept a careful log of the dew point — a measurement of moisture in the air — alongside his pace and heart rate during runs.

"The dew point really became more my guiding metric," Smith said.

He recalled an 18-mile run he did while he trained this year, when temperatures were 72 degrees, and the dew point was 71.

"It was the hardest run I've had the entire (training) block. It felt like I was just fighting through the air," he said. "Every mile was a battle."

Dew point, like the heat index, can offer people an idea of how comfortable it will feel outside. According to the weather service, a dew point of 55 or less is “dry and comfortable”; between 55 and 65 feels “sticky”; anything 65 or above feels oppressive, or in Smith’s words, like “death.”

Smith created a local guide of sorts, chi.run, as an independent resource (not affiliated with the official Bank of America Chicago Marathon) after running his first one in 2024. He writes it's meant for sharing "the stuff that actually matters when you live and train in Chicago. How to survive winter miles. How to deal with summer humidity."

When it's humid outside, the process of sweating becomes less efficient given that the atmosphere is already waterlogged. So sweat stops evaporating well, sticks to the skin, and the body can't cool off. The body then tries to increase skin blood flow to release heat, meaning the heart pumps faster.

“You send blood to your skin to cool off. If you do that, then that’s less blood for the rest of your body: your muscles, your heart, ... your brain,” said Ted Shieh, executive board member of Illinois Clinicians for Climate Action and an emergency physician with Duly Health and Care, formerly DuPage Medical Group.

This is why runners have to monitor their heart rate even more closely when it is hot and humid.

"I know on really high dew point days, I have to slow down," Smith said. "And kind of actively reduce my pace to keep the heart rate in check."

Kevin Daliva-Paleczny, 34, has been keeping a close eye on the forecast as one of tens of thousands of people from all over the country and the world who are slated to run in the Chicago Marathon that day.

He didn't grow up an athlete, the Wicker Park resident will readily say in conversation. And the anxiety that tends to accumulate in the lead-up to big days has sent him down rabbit holes before; the week of his wedding, his phone camera roll was chock-full of screenshots of weather forecasts. He remembers constantly refreshing his email inbox for weather updates before races, as if waiting to hear back from a job interview.

Now with nine marathons under his belt, Daliva-Paleczny feels a little differently, and encourages those following his journey as a runner on Instagram and TikTok to let go of that anxiety as well. “I still screenshot the weather. I just don’t let it consume me,” he said.

“We’ve trained through some, like, really horrible conditions. It’s been hot and so humid. ... And, yeah, the marathon is going to be the hardest thing that we’ve done all cycle,” he said. “But if we just keep psyching ourselves out or thinking too much about this one thing or worrying too much about this one thing, we kind of end up worrying about it twice.”

Chiampas said that preparing for the Chicago Marathon in October allows runners from the Northern Hemisphere to train in the summer months, giving their bodies time to acclimate to warmer temperatures.

While runners should still check the forecasts, doing so many days in advance could cause unnecessary anxiety

— especially in places like Chicago, where the weather can often feel frustratingly unpredictable.

In 2024, the Washington Post analyzed federal data to assess the accuracy of weather forecasts — specifically daily high temperatures

— across the country, and found that the Great Plains and parts of the Midwest have some of the most unpredictable weather. Forecasts in Illinois are accurate within 3 degrees only two days out, though cool months are easier to predict than warm months.

This is because, in “the vast middle of the country,” there are no moderating factors – such as big oceans that absorb the sun’s warmth or arid deserts that discourage disruptive weather systems – and air masses converge with one another frequently, some warm from the Gulf of Mexico and some cold from Canada, for example, causing quick temperature swings.

FUTURE OF RACING AND RECORDS IN CHICAGO

Because of Chicago's flat landscape and its fall weather during the annual race, Chia-mpas said, many recreational runners come to set personal records – and elite ones come to chase world records, too.

In 2023, the late Kenyan long-distance runner Kelvin Kiptum set a new record here with a 2:00:35 time, which was broken earlier this year in London. In many other races, however, rising temperatures are decreasing the odds of achieving record-breaking runs, according to Climate Central. For instance, Sabastian Sawe, who broke Kiptum's record in May, could not break his own record in Berlin last month, thwarted by unseasonable warmth, The Associated Press reported.

The chances of optimal temperatures in Berlin last year were very low for most runners, and $1\%$ for elite men. That chance is going to drop to zero by 2045, according to Climate Central's analysis.

Even if favorable running conditions likely won't get that much rarer in Chicago, past experiences with above-normal heat have led other host cities, even in Great Plains and Midwest states, to move future event dates.

The AP reported that, beginning in 2027, the Twin Cities Marathon in Minneapolis-St. Paul will be held later in the month instead of the first Sunday in October after the race was canceled in 2023 due to record heat and humidity, and after starting temperatures of 70 degrees in 2025. It also reported that the Sioux Falls Marathon in South Dakota similarly moved the race from August to September last year after canceling the 2024 race because of heat.

These moves, though necessary, might nonetheless create logistical headaches for runners trying to complete different races. A rule of thumb runners use after a long race is to rest at least one day per mile run, so about 26 days after a marathon, to allow for physiological and cellular repair.

As some host cities move their event dates, it can create conflicts in a stacked race schedule that usually allows runners to participate in different marathons. For instance, the Chicago and New York City marathons are usually within three weeks of each other.

"There's a huge running boom, especially post-COVID, of people (who) are just willing to run as many marathons," Daliva-Paleczny said. "Marathoners will find a way to make it happen. I know people who ran Berlin like two weeks ago and now are running Chicago this week. So, we'll find a way."

Regarding whether hopeful and returning Chicago Marathon runners will have to adjust their plans and strategy to any changes in the race's operations remains to be seen.

“We obviously are looking at all components and variables. What to change (in) the course or not. But, most importantly, we have the operations and the systems in place to hopefully be able to manage warm days, cold days, windy days,” Chiampas said. “For right now, I think October is a good date for us, but obviously we’ll be following all those things that are happening in the industry.”

The 48th annual Chicago Marathon will start and finish in Grant Park downtown beginning at 7:30 a.m. on Sunday.

ARMANDO L. SANCHEZ/CHICAGO TRIBUNE

First formal step toward potential lawsuit against US

By Laura Rodríguez Presa CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Just a year after Silverio Villegas González was fatally shot by an immigration enforcement agent during a traffic stop in Franklin Park, his family is seeking accountability from the federal government.

Attorneys representing Villegas González's family filed a claim under the Federal Tort Claims Act Thursday morning, the first formal step toward a potential lawsuit against the United States over his death.

The claim alleges that Villegas González, 38, was “unnecessarily and unlawfully” killed by an ICE officer and that federal officials subsequently misrepresented the circumstances of the shooting and failed to properly investigate it. The Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to request for comment.

“This claim is the first step towards seeking real accountability for Silverio’s death,” said Jonathan Manes, senior counsel in the Illinois office of the MacArthur Justice Center, which is representing the family with the National Immigrant Justice Center. “The point of this is to put the government on notice that we intend to sue, to establish the truth about what happened to Silverio, how he was killed by an officer unjustifiably and unnecessarily, and to get accountability for his death.”

The filing comes as questions remain about the federal government's investigation into Villegas González's death. More than a year after the Sept. 12, 2025, shooting, the government has not publicly identified the ICE officer who fired the fatal shot or released its investigative findings.

Villegas González had just dropped off his two young sons at day care and was on his way to work when ICE agents pulled him over near Grand Avenue and Elder Lane in Franklin Park, a west suburb of Chicago, during the early days of Operation Midway Blitz.

During the confrontation, Villegas González was shot in the neck before crashing his 2004 Subaru into a semi-trailer.

DHS said shortly after the shooting that Villegas González had refused commands and driven his vehicle at officers, striking and dragging one of them "a significant distance." The officer, fearing for his life, fired his weapon, federal officials said.

Later, witnesses and video evidence challenged the government's narrative. The family's attorneys also dispute that account.

"The available video evidence demonstrates that Silverio was driving away from the officers, not at them," the claim states. According to the claim, video and the medical examiner's report demonstrate that "... the shooting officer was standing alongside the vehicle, not in its path."

The claim also points to body-camera footage from Franklin Park police in which the ICE officer who was allegedly injured tells officers at the scene that his injuries were “nothing major.”

The Cook County medical examiner's report found that Villegas González was shot in the left side of his neck by a bullet that traveled downward and lodged in his lower-right chest. The trajectory shows the officer was standing alongside the driver's side of the vehicle when he fired.

"The medical examiner concluded that the person who killed Silverio fired downward into his neck from close range," the claim states. "The ICE officer was therefore standing alongside the driver's side of Silverio's vehicle when he fired the fatal shot, effectively executing Silverio at close range."

The medical examiner ruled his death a homicide.

The claim also challenges the government's characterization of Villegas González as "a criminal illegal alien with a history of reckless driving."

“Silverio was not a criminal,” the claim states. “All he had was a handful of traffic citations — with the sole moving violation dating back more than a decade to 2013.”

The Tribune found no criminal records under Villegas González's name.

Illinois officials have also raised concerns about the lack of cooperation from the federal government.

Illinois State Police announced in May that the Franklin Park Police Department requested that its Public Integrity Task Force investigate the shooting. Once completed, the investigation is expected to be turned over to the Cook County State's Attorney's Office.

But Gov. JB Pritzker said that the federal government's refusal to provide requested evidence and make agents available for interviews has made the state investigation “near impossible to complete.”

The federal government, he said, has not provided information Illinois requested about the shooting or made agents available to give testimony.

“We don’t even know the name of the officers who shot and killed Silverio on the streets,” Manes said.

The federal tort claim names DHS and ICE because an ICE officer shot González. It also names the FBI, according to Manes, because of the agency's involvement in the investigation.

"We're seeking to hold those that are responsible for Silverio's death accountable under law and bring the truth to light about the circumstances of his death," Manes added.

For Villegas González's family, the fight for accountability is intertwined with the fight to get custody of his two sons, the last people he saw the morning of his death.

Within three days of their father's death, the children were taken by Idaho authorities and placed in foster care in eastern Idaho, thousands of miles from their relatives in Chicago and Mexico, according to the claim.

Villegas González had been fighting for custody of the boys after their mother had moved to Idaho. He had already obtained partial custody and was close to being awarded permanent sole custody, according to the claim and family members.

The boys' mother later lost parental rights, the family said.

Today, Villegas González's oldest brother, José Villegas, and his wife, both U.S. citizens living in the Chicago area, are pursuing adoption of the boys.

“What is most important to us is to keep fighting to bring them home with us,” Villegas González’s sister, Graciela Villegas, told the Tribune.

The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare declined to comment, citing the confidentiality of child welfare cases.

Reyna Torres Mendivil, Mexico's consul general in Chicago, said the Mexican government continues to support the family with legal representation as they seek to reunite with the children. Consulate representatives have traveled with José Villegas to Idaho several times to visit the boys, who have not been able to communicate with their family in Mexico.

Manes said the children remain at the center of the family's legal efforts.

"The point of this lawsuit is to benefit the children," he said. "José, as Silverio's brother, doesn't stand to gain a penny from this lawsuit."

Any compensation obtained from the federal government would go to Villegas González's immediate family, including his children, he said.

“You can’t compensate a person for the loss of a father, for the loss of a father’s love, for the loss of that guidance,” Manes said. “But money’s the best we can do, and that’s what they’re trying to do for the kids to make sure that they are taken care of.”

For Manes, clearing Villegas González's name is an important part of the family's pursuit of justice.

"The wounds are still fresh for his family," he said. "What they want more than anything is for the truth to come out, to clear Silverio's good name because the government falsely smeared him and for there to be justice for his death."

The claim seeks damages for Villegas González's death, the loss suffered by his children and spouse, and damage to his vehicle and its contents, which attorneys estimate are at least \$10,000.

It also seeks damages under the Illinois Wrongful Death Act and Survival Act. Manes said the family intends to move forward as quickly as possible.

"There needs to be accountability for federal officers who illegally and unnecessarily kill people on our streets," he said. "This is a step towards accountability that Silverio's family can take, but there needs to be accountability from the federal government and also from our local prosecutor here in Illinois."

At long last, Chicago school board puts its committees to work

Nearly two years after its 21 members were seated — and just three weeks before a consequential election — the Chicago school board finally put its three standing committees on finance, operations and student success to work.

It's unclear why the Board of Education took so long to form the committees, even though its bylaws require them. Advocates have long viewed the model as a way to streamline governance by having small groups zero in on specific issues. Committee appointments were announced last month, and the groups convened for the first time Thursday.

A board spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment.

With the election weeks away, the board's makeup is likely to shift significantly in just a few months. All 21 board seats are up for grabs, and though most members are running to keep their seats, the races are expected to be hotly contested.

Committee meetings for special education and the district's Black Student Success Plan – which are led by board members but composed of community members – are also scheduled for the next six weeks. Both committees began accepting applications last year, but their rollout has been mired with delays.

Chicago Public Schools' 21-member board is among the largest in the country, and its shift from decades of mayoral control to a hybrid body has at times brought growing pains. Currently, 10 members are elected and 11 were appointed by Mayor Brandon Johnson. That dynamic has fueled division between board members aligned with Johnson and his ally, the Chicago Teachers Union, and those who are not.

Amid the politics, the seven-member committees can help the board focus on

clear priorities, according to Hal Woods, chief of policy at Kids First Chicago. They can also give board members more substantive information before they make decisions.

"You need to have smaller groups of members who can dig into those issues, ask questions and basically bring better-informed recommendations," Woods said.

Committees are a hallmark of many large elected bodies.

For example, the Chicago City Council has 19 standing committees overseeing a wide range of issues, from public safety to housing.

The school board's three committees will meet monthly to review contracts, policies and other action items before they go up to vote at the full board's monthly meeting. For each item, the committee recommends how the full board should vote.

The district's Black Student Success Plan is codified in state law, and the board began accepting applications last fall for the committee overseeing its implementation. But the plan largely stalled amid a Trump administration investigation alleging the effort was discriminatory. The plan aims to close historic academic and opportunity gaps for Black students.

The previous 7-member board formed the special education advisory committee, but it has not met since November 2024.

FEMA rejects Illinois disaster aid request for August storms

By Jeremy Gorner CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Republican President Donald Trump's administration has denied Illinois' request for a major disaster declaration that would have unlocked federal aid for eight counties, including Cook and Will, hit by severe storms this August. The state's top Democrats accused the president of politicizing disaster relief.

In a letter Wednesday, Federal Emergency Management Agency administrator Cameron Hamilton wrote that federal assistance was “not warranted,” Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker’s office said in a statement released on Thursday. The Pritzker administration said it would appeal FEMA’s decision.

The denial comes in a record-breaking year for severe weather in Illinois, which leads the nation with about 212 tornadoes confirmed by the National Weather Service so far this year, according to Pritzker's office. It also comes as Trump's administration denied providing federal assistance to Illinois last year for storms, including when a deluge dumped five to six inches of rain in some areas in July 2025, flooding basements and damaging thousands of homes; the state of Illinois put the average household damage at \$16,784.

"Our communities are still picking up the pieces from the destruction caused by severe weather this summer. Donald Trump should never play politics with their homes, businesses and infrastructure," Pritzker said in a news release. "When a massive storm system crosses state lines, the resulting damage should be evaluated fairly, consistently and based on the same objective standards and criteria, regardless of which state it impacts."

FEMA made disaster assistance available to neighboring Indiana — a solidly Republican state that also coped with power outages that lasted up to two weeks

— to help areas recover from many of the same severe storms, tornadoes, flooding and strong winds in August.

“Much like a toddler throwing a tantrum, Donald

Trump continues to punish Americans who live in states that did not support him in the last election. This behavior is beneath the dignity of the office he holds," U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin, Illinois' senior senator and a Democrat, said in a statement.

A FEMA spokesperson could not be reached Thursday. The agency has previously disputed suggestions that politics plays a role in its decisions.

But reports throughout 2026 have shown that Trump's rejections of disaster declarations cast a shadow not just over Illinois but the entire federal disaster-response system, which critics say the president has bent to serve political ends.

An analysis by Politico's E&E News in March found Trump approved just 23% of disaster declaration requests from solidly Democratic states, defined as those with a Democratic governor and two Democratic U.S. senators, compared with 89% from solidly Republican states. Trump also took an average of 80 days to decide on requests from solidly Democratic states, more than twice as long as for solidly Republican ones.

The denial involving the August storms is the latest flashpoint in a long-running feud between Trump and Pritzker, who has made attacks on the president's policies a centerpiece of his campaign for a third term in the Nov. 3 election. Darren Bailey, the Republican nominee for governor, criticized Pritzker for taking too long to respond to the storms, which did considerable damage to several areas, including the southern suburbs.

In a prepared statement, Bailey said Thursday he was “disappointed” that the Trump administration had denied Illinois relief “after derechos and destructive storms have impacted countless farmers and families across the state.”

"I would ask FEMA to reevaluate and reverse this decision. But if we want to ensure these decisions going forward are not clouded by partisanship, then perhaps it would be wise to have a leader of this state who is willing to work with Democrats and Republicans for the good of this state," Bailey said. "JB Pritzker goes out of his to act like a bully and insult people for simply disagreeing with him. If politics is at play in this decision – it is because JB Pritzker is a classless bully with no clue how to govern."

After the storms, Pritzker issued a state disaster proclamation that made additional state resources available for response and recovery, his office said. State agencies, including the Illinois Emergency Management Agency and Office of Homeland Security, have helped local officials with damage assessments and power restoration, among other tasks.

Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle pledged another \$8 million to continue clearing debris from south suburban areas affected by the August storms. Preckwinkle said recently that about 100,000 cubic yards of debris from the area has already been removed.

Ex-Evanston D65 Superintendent changes plea to guilty in federal kickback case

By Claire Murphy PIONEER PRESS

A little more than two weeks before former Evanston/Skokie School District 65 Superintendent Devon Horton's federal trial was set to begin over a kickback scheme he is accused of leading during his time there, Horton changed his original plea of not guilty during a court appearance Monday.

Horton, who was indicted last year on 17 felony counts of embezzlement, wire fraud and tax evasion over his involvement in what prosecutors describe as an effort to misappropriate District 65 funds and award himself over \$81,000 in kickbacks from approving the work contracts of three of his friends' companies, pleaded guilty to three of those counts in federal court in Chicago on Oct. 5.

Judge Thomas M. Durkin accepted Horton's guilty plea to those three counts. The first concerned wire fraud, where Horton used telecommunications to intentionally defraud District 65 out of money, the second involved converting the district's property to his personal use and the third dealt with failure to report ill-gotten gains on his income tax form.

Judge Durkin ordered a pre-sentence investigation to assist the court in reaching a decision as to Horton's eventual punishment.

U.S. prosecuting Attorney Emily Vermylen informed the court Monday that Horton's guilty plea on the three counts would reduce the length of his prison sentence. If the court deemed Horton had clearly demonstrated acceptance of responsibility for his crimes at the time of sentencing, the anticipated prison sentence would range from 87 to 108 months in prison, or about seven to nine years, she said.

The most serious of the counts he pleaded guilty to carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison if convicted. Horton originally pleaded not guilty to all 17 of the federal charges at his arraignment hearing in October 2025. Prosecutors have since dropped one of the charges, according to district court records.

When asked to make a statement regarding his decision to admit guilt on three of the counts, Horton admitted to Durkin that he failed to disclose his financial interests to District 65's Board of Education, he inappropriately used his District 65 procurement or "P-card" for personal expenses and did not disclose the proceeds he earned from the activities involving Ross, Ross and Lewis when he filed his income tax returns in 2022 and 2023.

“Dr. Horton pled guilty to certain charges today primarily because he received some funds back from some school district contractors he knew and that was wrong,” his attorney, Terence Campbell, told Pioneer Press in a statement.

"He has acknowledged his misconduct and accepted responsibility for his actions. Devon Horton is a good man who has devoted his professional life to bettering the education of tens of thousands of students, and I am confident he will be a positive force in his community once this case is behind him."

Horton's change of plea follows co-defendant Samuel Ross' decision to cooperate with prosecutors and enter a plea agreement Sept. 29, federal court records reveal.

In exchange for entering a guilty plea on one count of the wire fraud charges, prosecutors agreed to drop the remaining charges against Ross following his sentencing per federal court records.

According to the federal indictment, defendants Samuel Ross, and former Chicago Public Schools employees Antonio Ross and Alfonzo Lewis, were all friends of Horton's who allegedly agreed to award him kickbacks in exchange for the approval of professional service contracts for the companies they owned, along with additional payments.

The indictment alleges the three friends lied about the awarded contracts and made "materially false and fraudulent representations to make it falsely appear that Horton had no personal or economic interest in and was not associated with" the three men.

Samuel Ross and Antonio Ross are not related.

As of Oct. 5, both Antonio Ross and Lewis have not changed their not guilty pleas entered October 2025 and will stand trial later this month on Oct. 21. Horton resigned as District 65's superintendent in 2023, shortly before taking on the same role of superintendent for DeKalb County School District in DeKalb County, Georgia. He later resigned from that position following news of his October 2025 federal indictment.

Horton was indicted in Georgia in August on separate charges of aggravated assault and cruelty to children after a verbal dispute with his wife in January, according to DeKalb County court records. A trial date for those charges has not yet been set.

IRAN

from Page A1

open to resuming full-scale military operations against Iran.

For weeks, Trump has been threatening that a post-midterm election escalation in the 7-month-old war remains a viable option, despite his initial promises of a military campaign that would last a matter of weeks.

But Trump in a social media post on Thursday said the U.S. “will not be attacking Iran at any time prior to the Midterm Elections to be held in the United States on November 3rd.”

Trump added that his team has been “having productive discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran.”

The U.S. and Iran signed a short-lived interim agreement in June, intended to establish a 60-day ceasefire and framework for a permanent peace deal.

The deal signed by Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian collapsed within weeks amid renewed military actions and disputes over control of the Strait of Hormuz, the critical waterway which one-fifth world's oil flowed through before the war.

Negotiations had appeared at a standstill since Trump late last month publicly rejected Iran's proposal to reopen the strait within seven days if the U.S. met certain conditions.

Iran, however, said last week it had received a U.S. counterproposal. And Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi earlier Thursday said he expected Tehran would offer a formal reply within days.

Trump on Wednesday during a campaign rally in

San Antonio, Texas, said that his special envoy, Steve Witkoff, has continued indirect negotiations with Iranian officials.

But at the same time, Trump suggested he had mixed feelings about ending the war at this point.

"I think the deal isn't really something that I want to do, but they're willing to offer us anything to stop," Trump said.

Trump believes the U.S. is gaining leverage as the U.S. military is having greater success in helping oil tankers traverse the Strait of Hormuz and get Gulf allies' oil to market, while a Navy blockade is shutting down Iran's own oil exports.

Iran has lost its near chokehold over oil flows through the vital waterway with U.S. Central Command shepherding oil tankers through the strait at night with their location systems turned off. That, with the help of Gulf pipelines that skirt the strait, has allowed Gulf countries to export oil at nearly prewar levels.

But overall, ship traffic remains well below prewar levels, as are shipments of liquid natural gas and fuel products.

Tanker operators willing to risk running the gauntlet under Central Command's protection are in some cases charging rates of \$1 million a day or more, shipping analysts say.

The situation has become further complicated as Saudi Arabia and Yemen's government have launched a military campaign aimed at driving Iran-backed Houthi rebels from the Bab el-Mandeb strait, another critical Mideast trade route for oil and other goods. The Houthis, in turn, are targeting Saudi airports and key infrastructure in the kingdom with drone and missile strikes.

On Thursday, several explosions were heard in Saudi Arabia's capital, including a large blast at Riyadh's international airport, a witness told The Associated Press, a day after the kingdom said an attack on the airport killed one person and wounded others.

The blasts had an immediate effect on markets, as the price of crude oil jumped. Hundreds of flights to and from Riyadh were canceled, according to the flight-tracking site FlightAware.

Iran-backed Houthi rebels in neighboring Yemen claimed responsibility for the new attack on Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport, saying the ballistic missile caused damage but giving no evidence. The Saudis had no immediate comment about the claim.

BUDGET from Page A1

will be even worse.

Likening the budget to a house her team had painstakingly renovated over the last decade while paying down its mortgage, Preckwinkle in her budget address to the County Board said a storm had hit: the transportation lawsuit was a tree falling through the roof, while “cruel, cruel” federal funding cuts were like a basement flood.

“Water is coming in from above and below. It doesn't matter what caused the problem. It's up to you to fix it, and that's what we're dealing with,” she said. “When a storm hits, you don't take out a second mortgage if you can help it. You cut back on expenses, you make tough choices, you find a way to pay for it all. That's exactly the approach we're taking with this budget, tightening our belts across county government so that we're not asking our residents for a single additional dollar this year.”

That no-tax-hike line won Preckwinkle an election year ovation from commissioners. She and the 17 seats on the County Board are on November ballots. Preckwinkle faces libertarian Michael Murphy.

Though few have serious challengers, most commissioners were upbeat about the prospect of again neither being asked to vote for a tax increase that could enrage voters already seeing higher gas and grocery prices nor layoffs for county workers, which could risk alienating public sector unions.

The county's healthcare system, meanwhile, instituted its fourth year of budget trims in anticipation of major federal cuts to Medicaid. Cook County Health asked for an extra \$40 million allocation for the county to make up for an increase in uninsured and underinsured patients seeking care with little ability to pay for it.

One-time fixes typically are frowned upon by fiscal watchdogs and credit rating agencies. But Preckwinkle's chief financial officer, Angela Manning-Hardimon, told reporters during a Wednesday briefing that she felt “comfortable” tapping various reserve accounts and using one-time revenues because the county will still have “healthy” emergency funding left over.

“Reserves are built for times just like this, I believe the strong history of the organization planning, that’s what reserves are typically designed for: your most difficult fiscal years,” Manning-Hardimon said.

Preckwinkle's full budget pitch is \$9.69 billion, a roughly 4% reduction from this year. Total county head count would shrink by 25 "full-time equivalents," to about 23,800, under her plan. The proposal must still go through the gantlet of the County Board — and pleas from separately elected officials for more money — over the coming weeks.

Cook County's budget is generally split up between the general fund and the health fund. The general fund covers everything from Preckwinkle's office to the courts and property tax system, while the health fund covers the county's safety-net clinics and hospitals as well as its Medicaid program, CountyCare.

The \$221 million in general fund fixes includes spending \$88 million in earned interest racked up on the county's \$1 billion allocation from the federal pandemic-era American Rescue Plan Act. Preckwinkle's administration barely spent any of that money in the first year while it gathered public feedback on its plans, and was relatively slow to spend it since, allowing that money to build up interest while parked in the bank.

She also proposed partially draining \$61.2 million from a special reserve fund that was set up to keep ARPA-funded projects going after this year's federal spending deadline. About \$45 million still would be left over to pay for programming in 2028 and beyond, budget officials said.

Another \$18 million would come out of “pension stabilization” reserves to help pay for next year’s contribution to the county retirees’ fund. And \$54 million will be diverted from a reserve fund used to pay down long-term debts. The county made other, smaller cuts to payroll, overtime and delaying some tech projects and “non-mandated” programming, Budget Director Kanako Ishida Musselwhite said.

The county took a major budget hit earlier this year when a Cook County Circuit Court judge found that the Preckwinkle administration improperly used hundreds of millions of dollars in transportation tax revenue on offices they argued enforced “the rules of the road.” For years, it spent tax revenues from gas, parking lots, garages and car purchases on the sheriff, state’s attorney, public defender and Circuit Court clerk’s offices.

The Illinois Road and Transportation Builders Association successfully argued under the state constitution's "lockbox" amendment that the county could only spend that money on infrastructure or transportation projects. County Board members agreed to pull money from reserves to make up for the funding shift from the legal loss this year.

Preckwinkle's team is appealing the judge's decision and, in the meantime, is setting aside the roughly \$250 million in transportation revenues it hopes to use on public safety offices again "until resolution of the litigation," Preckwinkle's special counsel Laura Lechowicz

Felicione said Wednesday. "If we are not successful then we'll have to look at how it is that we want to spend that money moving forward."

In an emailed statement, John Fitzgerald, the attorney representing the transportation association, said the judgment “is the result of the County’s failure to honor a constitutional amendment that the voters approved in a landslide,” a reference to the lockbox amendment voters approved in 2016. “The County was repeatedly warned about its unconstitutional practices. It should have foreseen the consequences of its actions long ago.”

In spite of that funding freeze, Preckwinkle proposed spending \$150 million more than this year on its public safety offices.

On the federal front, Cook County's safety-net clinics and hospital system — which make up \$4.7 billion of the county's overall budget — face a "perfect storm" of cuts and are asking for the county to chip in an additional \$40 million to help break even.

Cuts to federal tax credits for some people getting insurance from the Affordable Care Act marketplace; the end of Medicaid coverage for refugees, asylum-seekers and trafficking victims; and new Medicaid work requirements are expected to slash \$138 million from patient revenue losses and add \$100 million in extra charity care costs.

Cook County Health said it has cut down on using outside agency staffing, frozen job openings and cut down on outside contracts. Its overall head count is flat at 7,761.

Commissioner Bill Lowry, vice chair of the county's finance committee and a member of the Cook County Health Board, said he was heartened by the cost-cutting measures, but said "it could be dark days," going forward, “and that’s why I’m looking very forward to seeing what happens with the midterms.”

Lowry and other CCH board members are hopeful of a reversal of some of President Donald Trump's Medicaid cuts if Democrats edge out Republicans in the November election. Preckwinkle warned without it, those long-avoided tax hikes could be coming.

"If federal changes to health care coverage stay the current course, the cost of maintaining our safety net will continue to rise. That means we cannot pretend that this year's approach will be enough forever," she said.

“In the years ahead, we will need to consider additional revenue to preserve the healthcare safety net, public safety, and other essential services our residents defend on. I believe residents deserve to hear from us now, not after the storm hits.”

PROTEST

Students join in a chant during a rally organized by the Chicago Socialist Alternative on the University of Illinois Chicago campus on Thursday as part of the “National Day of Action” in the wake of the sexual violence case at Cornell University in New York.

them, male students were among the crowd protesting on the Quad. Jacob Belencion, a fourth-year mechanical engineering student at UIC, said it's an important time for more men to be showing up in support.

"We need to be encouraging other men to be showing up to these spaces and calling out any misogynistic behavior," Belencion said.

Almost 300 miles away, students at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville were standing against sexual violence. After seeing information about the National Day of Action online, Isabel Montano, a junior studying philosophy and economics, decided to take action at SIUE.

It can be really easy to feel overwhelmed with sadness and anger, but Montano said she thought it would be good to channel those feelings into “an outlet to try to do something good and bring people together, to bring about positive change,” she said.

It's her hope that talking about and shedding light on issues like sexual violence can help bring about change.

“Even if I’m just one person standing out there with a sign, I think that one voice makes a difference,” Montano said. “...it’s not just for (Jane Doe) at Cornell. You see many women coming forward now, speaking about their experiences. It’s about the collective, how people relate to that.”

The inspiration to speak up went beyond college campuses.

Hundreds of students filed out of class at Lincoln Park High School on Thursday afternoon. At the front, four students held up a large banner with “#EndSexualViolence,” scrawled in pink capital letters.

A long line of students snaked out of the school toward Lincoln Avenue, chanting: "No means no, sexual violence has got to go," and a simpler, "No means no," and "My voice, my choice." The demonstrators ended up on the steps of the Lincoln Park

Zoo's administrative office, where students took turns at a megaphone. "You don't have to be a victim to say something, to do something," one student yelled, and the crowd erupted in cheers.

This wasn't LPHS junior and walkout planner Isabella

Scaffai's first time protesting. She walked out of school last year to rally against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement activity in the city, which gave her the foundation to help plan Thursday's demonstration alongside the LPHS Women

Empowerment Club.

Word of the alleged incident at Cornell University has spread around LPHS, prompting students to speak out against it, Scaffai told the Tribune ahead of Thursday's walkout.

It's disheartening to be excited about the independence, growth and freedom that come with going to college only to realize there's still a threat of abuse, Scaffai said.

“I just think, especially girls, feel like they really, really want to be able to feel free and feel safe, and it makes them so angry that (women are) susceptible to this, affected by this violence,” Scaffai said, adding that whether it’s a friend, their mother or sister, she thinks almost everyone knows someone that has been sexually assaulted in some way. “I know that when I go to walk out, it won’t be just for me and my future. It’s going to be for my friends, for the women that have raised me," she said.

LPHS senior Chloe Woodall, 17, helped raise awareness of the rally by making posters and spreading the word on social media.

As much as it tapped into the national conversation about the Cornell case, it also helped teach students what consent means, she told the Tribune. “I hope that if people weren’t clear on consent and what, really, sexual assault entails, that maybe this gave them a clearer understanding of it,” she said.

Other Chicago campuses offer support through existing resources, including Northwestern University's Center for Student Advocacy and Wellness and UIC's Women's Leadership and Resource Center and Campus Advocacy Network. For survivors of sexual violence struggling with the news, it can be helpful to take advantage of resources and others like the 24-hour Chicago Rape Crisis Hotline, according to Sarah Layden, chief program officer and interim director of the nonprofit organization Resilience.

While the Cornell case has drawn significant attention and public support, survivors may respond differently. Still, people of all ages should continue to be offered education and safe spaces for healing, Layden said.

"...I think building community with other survivors and speaking out can absolutely be compelling and really healing to people. At the same time, it's also okay if someone isn't ready to do that," Layden said. "That may not be the safest thing or the right option for every survivor, and just because somebody doesn't report right away or goes through what is typical trauma response in the aftermath of sexual assault, doesn't invalidate their experience."

24TH DISTRICT

Republican incumbent Seth Lewis of Bartlett faces Democrat Ben McAdams, a 30-year-old community organizer, in this district containing west suburban parts of Cook and DuPage counties. Lewis won in 2022 after edging Democrat Lauren Nowak.

Lewis, 58, is one of the Senate GOP's lead budgeteers and an important and thoughtful advocate for reducing tax burdens in Illinois and reining in spending.

He's also taken positions that make many in his party unhappy, particularly his vote in late 2025 for the transit rescue package that paved the way for Illinois' record toll increase. Lewis was the only Springfield Republican to support the legislation, saying that "public transit is vital to the continued success of our region" and emphasizing that earlier revenue-raising proposals for the measure were far more destructive. "When something is right for my district, I'll vote for it, even when that means breaking with my own party," he tells us. More Springfield Democrats ought to do the same.

McAdams is an unabashed progressive. For example, he enthusiastically supports a 3% surcharge on incomes over \$1 million and is sympathetic to the call for far more state revenue to bail out Chicago Public Schools. "The teachers are not the problem, the administration is not the problem, the children and families are not the problem," he tells us. We don't think that even many Chicagoans would agree with his take on CPS administrators and teachers, at least as reflected by their militant union.

Lewis is exactly the kind of Republican moderate Democrats and independents should support. Springfield needs more Republicans like Lewis to provide a check on the worst impulses of the Democratic supermajority in Springfield. Seth Lewis is endorsed.

26TH DISTRICT

This north suburban stretches from Palatine and Barrington north to Lake County municipalities including Lake Zurich, Hawthorn Woods and Wauconda. Republican Darby Hills, 50, was appointed to the seat in early 2025 after fellow Republican Dan McConchie resigned to start a national nonprofit advocating for better access for the disabled. Hills, formerly a Barrington Hills village trustee, is running to be elected in her own right against Democrat Nabeela Syed, 27, an Illinois House member from Palatine in her second term.

This surely will be a close race; McConchie defeated Democrat Maria Peterson in 2022 by less than 400 votes.

Syed is one of the youngest members of the General Assembly, and we endorsed her for the House in 2024. She leans progressive in her policy views but has taken some fiscally conservative stances; for example, she voted against the fiscal 2025 budget because she said it was too heavy on tax increases while also failing to earmark any of that money for what at the time was a coming transit funding cliff.

Syed tells us she opposed the transit rescue legislation enacted in late 2025 because it included a “regressive” sales tax increase. Except she didn’t oppose it, at least on the floor of the House. As Hills points out to us, Syed didn’t vote on the package. For something so consequential to her constituents, Syed can’t have it both ways. She should have voted no if that was her position.

Hills did vote against the package in the Senate with the fair reasoning that transit-agency reforms should have preceded the hefty toll hike and sales tax increase that bailed out the system.

Hills has voted against her party leadership more than once, including on a measure this year to allow for state regulation of auto insurance rates for the first time, which was signed into law. The last thing the Illinois Senate needs is an even larger Democratic supermajority, and Hills has proven herself the sort of Republican who will work with the other side of the aisle. Darby Hills is endorsed.

Sen. Craig Wilcox is a Republican running for reelection to represent Illinois' 32nd State Senate District. CRAIG WILCOX

27TH DISTRICT

The Senate seat for this north-west suburban district is open after Democrat Mark Walker opted not to run for reelection. He has endorsed Arlington Heights Village Trustee Carina Santa Maria, 41, to succeed him; she ran unopposed in the Democratic primary. Facing her is Republican David Mathis, a military retiree who served in the Marines and the National Guard and also lives in Arlington Heights.

Danielle Penman is running in the Republican primary in Illinois Senate District 33. DANIELLE PENMAN

On some issues, Santa Maria is well to our left. She calls for “fixing” Tier 2 Illinois pensions, by which she means enhancing their benefits. She claims they are causing recruitment and retention problems for police, fire and teaching jobs. We don’t see evidence of that; the last thing Illinois should do is to dig a deeper pension hole.

That said, we appreciate her approach to the SAFE-T Act. She calls for more transparency for the public on defendants who violate their home-confinement restrictions while on electronic monitoring. And she says judges need more tools to respond to such violations. “We can protect due process while also being clear that when evidence demonstrates someone poses a serious threat to another person or the community, our laws need to give judges effective tools to protect the public,” she tells us.

Mathis describes himself as a moderate. His call for more restrictions on abortion, though, likely won't sit well in a suburban district. Those tired of Democratic dominance in Springfield might want to consider this outsider, but we think Santa Maria is more likely to represent the best interests of this district. Carina Santa Maria is endorsed.

29TH DISTRICT

Democrat Julie Morrison of Deerfield has represented this north suburban district, which runs from parts of Glenview and Wilmette north to Lake Forest and Lake Bluff, since 2023. She ran unopposed in 2022 but faces a challenger this year in Republican Kate McGrath, an insurance agent.

McGrath, 51, tells us she's a proponent of artificial intelligence, saying the state "should embrace AI as an opportunity for innovation, economic growth and better government, not as something to fear." She also suggests using AI to make government "smaller and more efficient." There may well be ways to use AI on behalf of taxpayers, but not if Illinoisans are having to interact with more chatbots when they need answers from state government.

Otherwise, we appreciate McGrath's focus on reining in Illinois' budget and incentivizing faster economic growth.

Morrison, 69, has been a leader in the Senate on reasonable gun restrictions, a cause we support. We endorsed her in 2018. She tells us she doesn't agree with the Chicago Teachers Union's demands that the state pump billions more into public schools. "We have to be realistic about the financial pressures ahead," she says.

A practical politician, Julie Morrison is endorsed.

32ND DISTRICT

Republican Craig Wilcox, 58, of McHenry is running for a third full term in this northwest suburban district covering parts of Lake and McHenry counties. He has faced general-election challenges in each of his past two races. This one is no different. Running to unseat Wilcox is Democrat Karen Battalgia, 64, a registered nurse.

Wilcox, a native Texan who entered public life after a 23-year career in the U.S. Air Force, where he earned two Bronze Star medals during tours of duty in Iraq, didn't garner our endorsement in 2022 over our concerns with his stance toward the 2020 election results. Otherwise, we liked much of Wilcox's agenda, focused on pension and ethics reform.

While Donald Trump continues to prattle on about 2020, most of the rest of us have moved on. Wilcox continues to press for pension reform, telling us he believes earned benefits shouldn't be lessened, but the state should transition for future employees to a 401(k)-style system. That's worth considering, but first there must be a conversation. And Democrats beholden to public-sector unions show no signs of openness to any discussion.

Battalgia presents a stark contrast and tells us she advocates for enhancing Tier 2 benefits for employees hired in 2011 or later. She also supports the 3% income tax surcharge backed by House Speaker Emanuel “Chris” Welch.

Democrats already dominate Springfield and giving them more power will make such taxpayer-unfriendly policies more likely. We don't need another Senate seat changing hands in their favor without very good reason. That's not the case here. We endorse Craig Wilcox.

33RD DISTRICT

Illinois Democrats see an opportunity in this west suburban district, which runs from St. Charles through Elgin to Crystal Lake. Respected Republican Sen. Don DeWitte is retiring at the end of this term.

The Democratic candidate is Algonquin resident Michele Clark, 54, director of development at a local food pantry. She faces Republican Danielle Penman, a 49-year-old labor-and-delivery nurse from St. Charles who won a vigorously contested primary against Jessica Breugelmans.

We endorsed Breugelmans in the primary, but thought Penman also was a good option. Republicans have a solid candidate carrying their banner to keep this seat in the GOP fold.

Penman is focused on property tax relief with practical suggestions such as increasing the homeowners exemption and tying it to inflation so the value doesn't erode over time.

We agree with her, too, that Illinois must put the brakes on premature closing of fossil fuel-fired power plants while there are questions about electricity reliability in the near term — a step Springfield Democrats refuse to take.

Clark tells us she is an advocate of making “the wealthiest corporations and earners pay their fair share.” At 9.5%, Illinois corporations pay one of the highest income tax rates in the country. Seems like a “fair share” to us.

A vote to flip this seat to the Democrats is a vote for higher taxes and spending. Danielle Penman is endorsed.

35TH DISTRICT

Republican Sen. Dave Syverson has represented this far northwest suburban area including part of Rockford and localities to the east such as Harvard, Marengo and Huntley, since 1993, meaning he's one of the few state senators who can say he served with Barack Obama when he was a member of the body. In 2016, the president spoke to the General Assembly in Springfield and singled out Syverson, among others. "We didn't call each other idiots or fascists who were trying to destroy America," Obama said then. "Because then we'd have to explain why we were playing poker or having a drink with an idiot or a fascist who was trying to destroy America."

Oh, to have those days back!

Syverson, 68, hasn't seen a general-election challenger since 2010, but he's got one in Sarah Mertens, a substitute teacher. The Democrat says she grew up in Romeoville and graduated from the University of Illinois in 2011.

Her campaign platform seems both progressive and weirdly rote. One example: “Shifting the tax burden away from working families and onto billionaires’ international corporations.”

Syverson, though, is a veteran lawmaker who understands in detail how state government works. He offered us a litany of good ideas. One: Fixing the electronic-monitoring issues by ending the law's automatic two days per week of untracked freedom for those on ankle bracelets to making violations grounds for new detention hearings. Another: Forbid end-of-career salary spikes that lead to gold-plated pensions for bigwigs in the bureaucracy.

As to the transit rescue bill, dramatically increasing tolls, he said he opposed it even as he's supported past tax hikes like the gas-tax increase. And this point resonated with us: "A small fare increase would not have filled the entire gap, but would have at least told downstate taxpayers, 'we did our part.' Instead, they just did a big 'in your face.'" Exactly.

Syverson's decades of experience in Springfield are invaluable when we need pragmatic Republicans. Mertens has a very thin record. Dave Syverson is endorsed.

The race for Chicago school board president is about ideas — and character

Chicago school board president candidates Jessica Biggs, Hilario Dominguez and Victor Henderson participate in a forum at the Copernicus Center on Sept. 29. CHRIS SWEDA/CHICAGO TRIBUNE

David Greising

As voters consider their choices in the first-ever election for president of the Chicago Board of Education, they'll need to account for a particularly striking set of issues related to character and competence.

Whoever is elected will need a healthy dose of both qualities, including a good bit of steel in their backbone, to effectively lead a school system that is dealing with significant problems. Chicago Public Schools, which has a “junk” credit rating, faced a \$732 million budget gap this year

— on top of carrying around \$9 billion in debt and having deeply underfunded pensions. It has lost nearly 80,000 students since 2010 while adding substantially to staffing in that time, and it struggles with a race-based achievement gap among its students. And it faces the end to a moratorium on school closures at the end of the current school year.

It will take some savvy strategic thinking, backed by the character needed for leadership, to make a dent in solving the district's problems. And that's why it's so concerning that each of the candidates for board president is facing serious character questions as Election Day approaches.

After all, character is a significant factor in leadership.

The CPS inspector general is investigating sexual harassment allegations against candidate Hilario Dominguez related to events that happened in 2017. His accuser, who was a 17-year-old program participant at the time, said he behaved inappropriately toward her as a 24-year-old staff member of The Resurrection Project. The accusations were ruled as “not substantiated” earlier this year, the case was reopened just recently based on new information, the Tribune reported.

Candidate Jessica Biggs is answering questions about how she finally got off of CPS' "do not hire" list — on a third try — just weeks after Biggs, as an elected school board member, completed the board's search for a new district superintendent. Biggs' name was placed on the list in 2018 after she was fired as principal of Burke Elementary School based on claims she manipulated attendance reports in an effort to prevent CPS from closing the

school.

Candidate Victor Henderson's then-wife, in a divorce filing, accused him of physically abusing the couple's sons.

Dominguez denies any wrong-doing. Biggs has said she was fired over “minor bureaucratic issues.” Henderson in court papers agreed not to subject his sons to corporal punishment.

There are plenty of voters who will stick with their candidate, no matter what unexpected character issues might surface.

Mayor Brandon Johnson is one of them. He is unshaken in his support for Dominguez even after the revelation this week. Johnson cited Dominguez's opposition to school closures, among other issues, in response to reporter questions. "Let's just separate the two" topics, Johnson said.

Voters hardly need to see it that way. Rather, they can look to combine the two: Consider both the candidates' ideas and whether they have the character and leadership skills to put their ideas into action.

Dominguez, who like Johnson is a former leader at the Chicago Teachers Union, argues that

the state owes money to CPS — due to chronic underfunding of the statewide evidence-based funding plan. Never mind that Johnson already has tried this argument, without success. Dominguez notes the current CPS budget calls for \$150 million in new state funding and says he'll get it somehow, even where Johnson has failed.

Biggs argues against relying on money that the state has not committed. She says she would bring together leaders from the state legislature, the school board, the city and the unions to work on a five-year recovery plan. She also says she would seek parity in state funding for CPS pensions, compared to what every other municipality receives.

Just how she would persuade the legislature to do so, Biggs has not spelled out.

Henderson says that his background as an accountant makes him good with numbers and his work as a lawyer makes him a good negotiator. He would spot savings others won't see, then secure them with his masterful negotiating style.

What they offer is lots of hope but not enough concrete plans. More substantive details from all three candidates between now and Election Day would be a service to voters and ultimately to the ability of the elected president to lead CPS.

As Nov. 3 approaches, voters looking for a litmus test might want to consider the issue of future school closings.

Back in 2013, then-Mayor Rahm Emanuel handled the closure of 50 schools with so little public discourse and such inequitable results that the idea of new closures is politically radioactive, no matter how fiscally necessary closures may seem. But with the current moratorium on closures set to expire next year, the issue will come to the fore again, just as the new board president is taking office.

Biggs says decisions need to come from the neighborhoods and not downtown, but she lays out few specifics and won't state a firm position in the end. Henderson has said he would close schools "as an extraordinary last resort."

Dominguez justifies his position against closures by referenceing academic studies, including one that claims closures actually add costs due to related increases in violence. Experiments with reinventing CPS school buildings as community centers – classes in some rooms and neighborhood amenities such as grocery stores or health clinics in others – need to be expanded dramatically, he says.

The three candidates present quite a contrast for voters. Biggs has run Chicago schools and helped govern the system as a member of the board already. Dominguez grew up in CPS and has bright ideas but lacks the executive leadership experience that this job demands. Henderson's lack of background in education implies a steep learning curve and raises questions about why he found a calling to teach the city's children so late in his career.

The election absolutely is about character. It's also about ideas. And how voters assess the combination of both will determine who leads Chicago's school board into a very difficult future for CPS.

The hospital that trains Chicago's doctors can't survive Washington's Medicaid cuts

Dr. Enrico Benedetti, head of surgery at UI Health, talks to a patient on Aug. 14, 2025, at UI Health in Chicago. HOSS FATEMI/UI HEALTH

By Albert D. Sam II SPECIAL TO THE TRIBUNE

On a recent Thursday night, I sat in a ballroom at the University Club of Chicago for the 20th annual Bridging the Gap conference, hosted by University of Illinois Chicago's departments of surgery, medicine and emergency medicine. The evening's theme was emerging health issues in underrepresented minorities. The story I can't stop thinking about came from Dr. Enrico Benedetti, interim executive dean of the University of Illinois College of Medicine.

In 1989, Benedetti arrived from Florence, Italy, to begin his internship at the University of Illinois Hospital. Early on, he watched a pregnant woman wait 16 hours in our emergency room for routine prenatal care. She had nowhere else to go. He has spent his career trying to make sure no one waits like that again.

Thirty-seven years later, Washington is on track to bring those waits back.

The federal budget law known as H.R. 1 is projected to cut \$1 trillion from Medicaid nationally over the next 10 years, including \$26 billion in cuts to Medicaid funds for Illinois. The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation estimates roughly 400,000 Illinoisans could lose coverage. The state already HAS sent letters to about 700,000 residents who could be affected by new work requirements. Cook County Health estimates up to 330,000 Illinoisans could lose healthcare coverage, with half of them living in Cook County. Starting in January, some enrollees will have to prove at least 80 hours a month of work, volunteering or school, and will have to renew their coverage every six months instead of every 12.

Immigrant families are being hit first. H.R. 1 narrows Medicaid eligibility for certain noncitizens, and some lost coverage Oct. 1. That includes people living here lawfully. Those losses come on top of Illinois' own decision to close its immigrant adult health program. That program covered people ages 42 to 64, and its last day of coverage was June 30, 2025.

Most people losing coverage are American citizens, including working adults, caregivers and people between jobs. Losing insurance does not stop anyone from getting sick. It means they get care later, when the illness is harder to treat.

As a vascular surgeon, I see what that delay looks like. A wound that could have been managed in a clinic turns into an amputation, and the amputation happens in an operating room at a safety-net hospital.

This is where the math becomes dangerous. Statewide, Medicare and Medicaid make up 30% to 40% of hospital revenue, but at safety-net and critical-access hospitals, they make up more than half. The governor's budget office warns the law's new caps on provider taxes will reduce Medicaid funding by a total of \$4.5 billion by fiscal 2031. Once the rate caps fully phase in, the annual hit reaches \$6.1 billion by 2033. The Illinois Health and Hospital Association warns that roughly half the hospitals in Illinois could be forced to reduce staff, cut back on services or close altogether. We already have seen what closure looks like here: Weiss Memorial Hospital in Chicago closed in August 2025 because of financial struggles. Cook County Health is already projecting a \$100 million increase in charity care in 2027.

UI Health is the only public academic health center in Chicago. It includes a 451-bed tertiary hospital and the Mile Square network of 11 federally qualified health centers. We treat everyone who comes through our doors, and that is exactly why these cuts threaten us.

The threat goes beyond patient care, because UIC also is where Illinois trains its health workforce. More than 1 in 3 physicians practicing in Illinois trained at the College of Medicine, and 1 in 5 earned their medical degree there. Almost half of all Black and Latino healthcare professionals in Illinois, and up to $70\%$ in Chicago, are alumni of UIC's health science colleges. The college graduates more African American students than any U.S. medical school except Howard and Meharry.

Residents learn medicine by caring for patients, and a teaching hospital's clinical revenue pays for that training. If a safety-net academic center must close clinics, freeze hiring or cut services, fewer doctors and nurses get trained. Chicago's future physicians, including the ones most likely to practice in the neighborhoods that need them most, would lose the place where they learn.

The economic damage would spread well beyond the hospital. UIC added \$10.6 billion to the Illinois economy in 2023 and supported almost 97,000 jobs, which is 1 of every 85 jobs in the state. UI Health's spending alone generated \$1.6 billion in added income for the state. If UIC is destabilized, the effects reach the Illinois Medical District, the Near West Side and every business that depends on the paychecks of people who work there. Uncompensated care doesn't go away, either. Taxpayers and families with private insurance end up paying for it.

There is still time to act. Congress can delay the work requirements and the payment caps before they take full effect. Springfield can make protecting safety-net hospitals a budget priority. Chicagoans can tell their representatives that a hospital serving everyone who walks in is part of the city's infrastructure, just like its roads, bridges and power lines.

Benedetti has spent 37 years making sure no woman waits 16 hours for prenatal care at our hospital. We should not let Washington undo that work.

OPINION

Hello, Chicago marathoners. What are you running through?

By Kyra Marcano SPECIAL TO THE TRIBUNE

People cheer as runners cross the LaSalle Street bridge during the Chicago Marathon on Oct. 13, 2024. BRIAN CASSELLA/CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Recently, I sat across the table from my uncles at my niece's baby shower where my upcoming marathons became a hot topic.

They asked: So, what am I running from?

Nothing. Not from but through.

Growing up in a major city such as Chicago brings a world of opportunity with world-class museums, rich culture and expansive green spaces. But for many young people, including me, proximity to violence and city living cultivate a steady hypervigilance toward personal safety. It acts as a bellwether, quietly draining energy like background apps on a cellphone.

In an uncertain world, running is tangible. There's structure, a formula and predictability in finding your stride. Running also is a mirror that teaches the importance of discipline, discernment and self-trust. It has helped me manage the generalized depression and anxiety that come with trauma. With a family history of substance misuse and severe mental illness, my nail-biting, task avoidance and insomnia were quiet cries.

Running became the through-line that helped anchor everything else.

Twenty-five years ago, I laced up my running shoes for my first 5K and never looked back. I think about that moment now as I see runners training for the Bank of America Chicago Marathon on Sunday. You see them in the streets and along the lakefront and darting down sidewalks as they wind down their long runs to prepare for the big day.

And it is a big day. The first Chicago Marathon in 1977 drew 4,200 runners who managed to cross the finish line. Today, the marathon attracts more than 56,000 runners and pumps some \$756 million into the Chicago economy. Have we marathon runners lost our minds? Why this growing attraction?

In my mid-20s, as a fourth-grade teaching resident at the

Chicago Academy in Portage Park, I was showing up fully for my students but completely checked out from my own well-being. The nonprofit I now oversee, Chicago Run, had partnered with my school on running activities for students. The kids didn't have daily physical education classes. Chicago Run's program allowed me to take them out to the track every day to run or walk laps, learn about proper running form, set goals and enjoy some fresh air. I saw running through new eyes.

There's a certain release with running you don't get from other exercise. Your arms have to cross the threshold of your body, working both sides of the brain. It requires focus. I knew from

my own experiences playing sports at Lane Tech College Prep that I functioned better when in season. I stopped biting my nails. I completed tasks. I slept better. I noticed my students experienced this, too.

It may seem counterintuitive, but inserting marathon training during some of my most difficult life transitions — the sudden loss of my brother, a complicated relationship — grounded me. I grew up one of six. Running was something that strengthened my bond with my brother, allowing me to meet his struggle with steady companionship instead of anger.

Today, I am training for marathons in New York and London.

What I have come to understand is that running is a constant teaching tool. You learn things about yourself over pavement you cannot learn anywhere else. You put down the invisible load. You accept help and support. You learn that moving forward gets you to the finish line, every time.

During Mile 20 of my first marathon, I heard my dad's voice right before he hopped in alongside me. "I've never been more proud!" he shouted. I was crying. My scalp was sunburned along the parts of my braided hair. I had not fueled properly. But there was my mom with flowers. There was my sister helping me stretch after I finished. Something clicked.

That's what I tried to explain to my uncles at the baby shower. Running is not a cure-all. It doesn't replace trauma or big

problems such as systemic disinvestment or inadequate access to mental health services. It didn't "fix" me.

But it is a way to move through.

When I'm running, I'm keeping my breath steady. I'm putting my legs and arms in rhythm. I'm unclenching my jaw. I'm enjoying the quiet. I'm not overthinking. I'm just me.

That's why we do it.

Keep moving forward, runners.

Voice of the People

No, not all Republicans

Steve Chapman's column "Republicans are fanning baseless fears about American Muslims" (Oct. 7) is humbug.

Imam Tariq El-Amin leads Friday prayers at Masjid Al-Taqwa. Participants of the Chicago Black Muslim History Tour stopped at the Calumet Heights mosque for prayer and lunch on Dec. 6, 2024. E. JASON WAMBSGANS/TRIBUNE

I'm a moderate Republican. For years, I've been welcomed at Ramadan iftars, festivals and gatherings at our local mosques and Islamic centers, and I've returned that welcome with support and inclusion. One Muslim center sponsors our community 5K run annually. These are real relationships, built over time between congregations and communities regardless of political party. Would Chapman have his readers believe they do not exist?

Chapman points to two misguided candidates, one in Florida and one in Tennessee, who made ugly anti-Muslim remarks. Then he leaps to the sweeping claim that “in this year’s campaign, Islamophobia is not a rare phenomenon. It’s become an essential part of the Republican brand.”

Humbug. It is rare. It is wrong. And it should be called out every time it happens. But two candidates are not a party. Tarring all Republicans with these candidates' words is exactly the kind of guilt by association one would hope Chapman would rightly condemn if it were aimed at Muslims, or any other groups.

That's the irony: A column decrying division sows more of it. Maybe that sells papers. — Gary Grasso, Republican candidate, DuPage County chair

Memories haven't faded

Undoubtedly, Muslim Americans should never be subjected to discrimination and hate. Islamophobia is as unacceptable as unfounded prejudice and scorn targeting any group of Americans.

Yet, I disagree with Steve Chapman when he writes that one would expect that memories of attacks by al-Qaida and other terrorists would have “subsided” by today. Since October 1979, Islamic extremists have murdered thousands of Americans, as reported by the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.

Yes, a minuscule percentage of Muslims believe in the Islamic extremism that has caused so many American deaths, and Islamophobia should be eradicated. Still, to expect that Americans' memories of terrorists' murders of U.S. citizens would

subside by today is unrealistic. Indeed, one would expect that the fading of such memories would be unthinkable to most Americans. — Terry Takash, Western Springs

ICE use of shock gloves

I was a cop for 33 years in Chicago. I witnessed some of the most intense civil disturbances in the country: the 1965 open housing marches, the 1968 demonstrations following the assassination of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and the demonstrations at the Democratic National Convention in August of that year. As bad as things were — rioting, looting, shootings and arson; accusations of police misconduct; even a mayor who gave orders to shoot to kill arsonists and wound-be looters — we law enforcement officers, who included soldiers, were not equipped with electrical devices that shocked individuals.

In 1963, police officers in Gadsden, Alabama, used electrical cattle prods on civil rights protesters. The sight of human beings being shocked and tortured by these devices caused an entire nation to be appalled.

Now comes the news that Immigration and Customs Enforcement has purchased shock gloves at a cost of \$16.7 million to be used on people who resist arrest and are combative and on demonstrators. My question is: Have we not learned from the past? Do law enforcement officers in a country that preaches about and practices freedoms and the right to demonstrate really need devices that no doubt will be considered a torture device? What's the difference between a cattle prod and shock gloves? The difference is one is gone and the other is about to take its place.

People will resist, unfortunately, and cops will be injured. More intense training and other nonlethal equipment would most assuredly be better than using shock gloves on human beings.

Experience and commonsense tell me that use of shock gloves needs rethinking.

— Bob Angone, retired Chicago police lieutenant, Austin, Texas

Turning 'us' into 'them'

President Donald Trump's remark referencing the nuking of Los Angeles or San Diego wasn't meant to incite Iran to do so. It was more of an aside, the kind of clumsy free association we should expect from him. When a commentator frames it as Trump launching a treasonous solicitation to an enemy, I go to my reflexive response of: "Doesn't he give us enough legitimate outrages that we need not exacerbate his questionable ones?"

In short, my hair isn't on fire over Trump's very unpresidential remark. I don't dismiss it as a joke, either. Jokes should be funny. Coming from a president, they shouldn't be free-floating babble without context or purpose.

For me, the utterance was just continued affirmation of what we already know. Trump has an extremely limited imagination. Just about anyone reaching this professional pinnacle in America would be in awe of the office and the magnitude of the attendant responsibility. For most people, the bigger the population to serve, the better. Trump considers only his supporters to be under his domain. He shuts out the majority of Americans by turning them from “us” into “them.”

For Trump, LA and San Diego might as well be Iran. That's the ongoing danger no commentator need embellish.

Donald Trump's one truth

Here is a man who is truly afraid of being forgotten. President Donald Trump feeds the public with lies, and many people are eating it up. He is changing the world and the look of Washington, D.C., with the false hope he will be remembered as a brilliant leader, when, in truth, he will be disparaged as a mean, incompetent child.

Where is a president who cares about his country and the world's citizens? Trump's newest besties are all dictators. Oh, and let's not forget about his accumulated wealth and perhaps the pride he enjoys in getting it unlawfully. He is making a mess and doesn't care who's there to clean it up.

His one true statement reveals his real fear. It doesn't matter to him which party is elected to Congress. He just asks that Republicans fill those seats because if not, "They'll impeach me."

So, now he tells the truth! Corinne Sapstein, Chicago

That check would go to charity

When, or if, I get my \$90 check from President Donald Trump, I will immediately send a \$90 check to my favorite charity.

I hope everyone does the same. - Arlene Kaganove, Chicago

What are politicians' solutions?

What are politicians' solutions? Midterms are almost here. We hear the criticism but not solutions!

This is concerning. If there are no better plans to put in place, we will find ourselves in a worse position. To simply say things are bad or wrong or that we disagree is not enough. It must be backed up by a better plan. Use what is working; even work together.

Our country succeeds with better ideas. Every year, we have a better phone, new medicines and improved food.

Politicians, what are your solutions?

- Sue Atkenson, Frankfort

ANNE LUNDE 1952-2026

Community journalist, historian and expert on Norwood Park

By Bob Goldsborough FOR THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Historian Anne Lunde, co-author of "Norwood Park, A View from the Ridge." CARMINE FANTASIA

Anne Lunde's long-standing love of local history and her wealth of knowledge about Chicago's Far Northwest Side made her a natural to co-author the definitive history of the Norwood Park neighborhood, "Norwood Park, A View from the Ridge," a 355-page book published in 2024.

“She was a very, very smart woman who was very diligent in doing research and was tenacious,” said Susan Kroll, who wrote the history book with Lunde. “I mean, she was doing research long, long before the Internet was a thing, and she managed to track down rare books that would be hard to find today and to go through them to pick out details of things that happened 150 years ago. She was so very good at doing research.”

Also a longtime community journalist until her retirement several years ago, Lunde died April 22 at the Norwood Crossing senior living community in Norwood Park after a long illness. She was 74.

Jori Smith, a friend and neighbor, confirmed the death, which was not widely reported at the time. Lunde had been a longtime Edison Park resident.

Lunde's keen attention to historic detail and her wealth of institutional knowledge — acquired over decades as a community news reporter — made her a go-to source for those interested in the North-west Side's history.

Born in 1952, Lunde grew up in Edison Park and graduated from Taft High School in Norwood Park in 1969. She then attended Rockford College.

Lunde's mother, Grace, was a longtime local journalist who worked as a columnist and then editor for the Edison-Norwood Times-Review newspaper and then was the founding editor of the Edison-Sauganash Times-Review newspaper.

Lunde worked for many years as a reporter and editor for the Times-Review newspaper chain, overseeing coverage of the Edison Park and Edgebrook neighborhoods, as well as coverage of Park Ridge, Niles, Norridge and Harwood Heights.

She left in 2009 in a downsizing. Lunde then was hired in 2013 by the suburban Journal & Topics newspaper chain, where she worked as a full-time staff reporter until retiring in 2024.

Lunde's love of local history dated to college, Kroll said. And Lunde's family had been in Edison Park for several generations, she said.

"One of her grandmothers was a suffragette, so she had a family history of being involved in the world, and I think just knowing her family history made her aware of what can happen around you, and if you don't document those things, they go missing, and people don't know," Kroll said.

The Norwood Park Historical Society manages the Noble-Seymour-Crippen House, which dates to 1833 and is considered Chicago's oldest building. The society's acting president, Art Krumrey, called Lunde "a gem of a resource" who "had the broadest and deepest knowledge of houses and businesses in Norwood Park."

Krumrey also recalled Lunde's journalism work helping local history researchers. He recalled her "Community Roots" columns in the Edison-Norwood Times-Review newspaper, which the Norwood Park Historical Society has digitized and regularly searches in response to historic requests from the community.

“From her days writing ‘Community Roots,’ she was a wealth of knowledge,” Krumrey said.

Krumrey noted that through her research, Lunde was able to determine that the first monitor to measure noise at O'Hare International Airport was located at Taft High School.

In 1996, Lunde wrote a history of the Norwood Crossing senior living community for its 100th anniversary. About 15 years ago, Lunde also researched and designed a history wall at Norwood Crossing.

Lunde was past president of the Taft High School Alumni Association and volunteered as the secretary, the office manager and as the newsletter and bulletin creator at the Edison Park United Methodist Church.

The Rev. Jerry Miller, the church's former pastor, called Lunde "a very giving person."

“She was always looking for ways to improve things, including getting things done on time,” he said. “She was responsive to needs.”

In February 2022, Lunde moved from Edison Park to the Belmont Village assisted-living community in Glenview. In late February of this year, she relocated to Norwood Crossing.

Smith was one of several friends who helped Lunde in recent years. Smith has a family connection with Abraham Lincoln's mother, and she recalled Lunde "sending me a little novel, some Lincoln trivia and how things fit together — Lincoln, Chicago, Ebinger Elementary School, and Norwood Park. She loved connecting all that."

Lunde's brother Albert was her only immediate relative. He died in 2020.

A celebration of life service was held Sept. 23.

"One of the things I really loved about her celebration of life that we had done was, we talked a lot about the power of community and how Anne brought together people within the community based on her writing and the history we have," Smith said. "One of the things we can do to honor Anne is to know our neighbors, be curious about one another, listen to each other's stories and show up for one another when we can. She believed in the power of community."

Goldsborough is a freelance reporter.

Second, an adequate public notice program can be an important public educational tool. The dissemination of information and request for public comment about floodplains/wetlands can facilitate and enhance Federal efforts to reduce the risks and impacts associated with the occupancy and modification of these special areas. Third, as a matter of fairness, when the Federal government determines it will participate in actions taking place in floodplains/wetlands it must inform those who may be put at greater or continued risk.

Waymo begins testing in Detroit

The company is evaluating its fully autonomous rideshare system in downtown, surrounding areas

THE DETROIT NEWS

Drivers on Detroit roads are about to become acquainted with a phenomenon that's become commonplace in other cities across the South and the West Coast: cars traveling without anyone behind the wheel.

Waymo LLC's rideshare service began full autonomous testing in Detroit this week without a human specialist at the wheel as the rideshare company inches closer to public service. The Alphabet Inc.-owned company has been a fixture in Metro Detroit since last November with its Chinese-made Zeekr Ojai vehicles plying the roads. Waymo also uses white Jaguar iPace models.

Waymo Product Communications Manager Chris Bonelli said there is still no timeline for the so-called Waymo Driver service deployment in Detroit. But Waymo is testing in the downtown and surrounding neighborhoods, including Corktown, Midtown, Hamtramck and Indian Village, with plans to expand. It will publish a map of its service area before it opens rides to the public via its phone app (similar to the Uber app).

Waymo operates in cities from San Francisco to Atlanta. Detroit, along with Denver, Minneapolis, Chicago and Montreal, is one of the first northern cities that Waymo is exploring as it seeks to expand its service to states with variable climates.

Service in Denver opened this summer, and Telemetry analyst Sam Abuelsamid expects the Detroit service will be available on a limited basis by the end of the year, with the Waymo app opening to the public at large early in 2027.

"It depends on, you know, how smoothly things go," said Abuels-amid. "It also depends on the specific permitting rules in a given state. Waymo is the first to do (autonomous rideshare) in Michigan."

The Zeekr Ojai is an upgrade over the Jaguar Waymo with the sixth-generation Waymo Driver system that allows the vehicle to operate in wintry conditions.

"The sixth-generation Waymo Driver system has their latest generation of radar and lidar and the cameras," continued Abuelsamid. "It reduces the cost by about $50\%$ compared to the fifth-generation system that was on the Jaguars. They've been testing it on some of the Hyundai Ioniq 5s that they will launch later in the year."

Produced in China, the Ojai is significantly cheaper than the Jaguar even after tariffs. After import, the electric van is outfitted with Waymo hardware and software in its Mesa, Arizona facility.

Waymo doesn't divulge its vehicle manufacturing cost, but Abuelsamid estimates the company pays about \$60,000-\$70,000 for the Ojai and \$140,000-\$150,000 for the Jaguar after both are fully built for Waymo Driver.

Waymo is in the process of increasing capacity in Mesa to manufacture tens of thousands of units per year. The Ojai boasts a roomy cabin — Waymo calls it “a living room on wheels” — with features like Gemini AI for passengers, embedded Braille and screen-reader compatibility, and a seat-integrated handle for passenger accessibility.

As in other cities before it, the progression from driver-monitored to fully autonomous rides is part of the normal Waymo test cycle. In the initial phase of testing, Waymo mapped the streets in the areas where the company planned to operate, then integrated the Waymo Driver software with local lighting and traffic safety configurations. The new phase follows months spent with driver monitors on board, familiarizing the so-called Waymo Driver with city streets, coordinating with local officials, and engaging with community members to understand Waymo's service and how the technology works.

“Rides will initially only be available to Waymo employees, as we work to open our doors to public riders in the future,” said Bonelli. “We’ll follow our safety framework and serve riders in Detroit when we’ve properly validated our technology in the city, and our local operations are ready.”

Beyond vehicle testing, Waymo has been integrating into the community. Emphasizing safety and accessibility, it has partnered with the Epilepsy Foundation of Michigan, the Urban League of Detroit & Southeastern Michigan, and Mothers Against Drunk Driving, Michigan. Waymo served as title sponsor of the League of Michigan Bicyclists' HUBFest, providing helmet checks and giveaways.

With more than 270 million fully autonomous miles across its operating cities, Waymo claims 95% fewer crashes causing serious or fatal injury compared with human drivers.

'It's a homecoming'

New Mundelein business adds to Lake County's brewing history

A new Lake County brewery is opening its doors this month, joining a host of other local breweries that have begun operations thanks to the growing popularity of craft brewing.

The Fenton Brewing Company will officially open in Mundelein on Saturday, taking over the former home of the Tonality Brewing Company at 169 N Seymour Ave. Owner Ben Fenton, a Mundelein native, says the community's concentration of breweries makes it a destination for craft fans.

The brewery joins a long and storied — if sometimes illicit — history of alcohol and brewing in Lake County.

Ben Fenton grew up in Mundelein and has worked in the restaurant industry for a decade. He went to the Ballymaloe Cookery School in Ireland, but not for brewing. While in school, he felt it would make a “cool story” to brew a beer in Ireland, and in the process of making a few batches, he fell in love with beer making.

It was actually the wife of the school's head sommelier who told him he should go into brewing as a career, and he's spent the last few years working at different restaurants and breweries to learn "every bit" of the business. That includes Mickey Finn's Brewery, the first brewpub in Lake County.

During the pandemic, he took a brewing course through the Siebel Institute of Technology in Chicago, the oldest brewing school in the country, going back to 1868, which moved this year to Montreal.

With Mundelein growing, his brother reached out, saying it was a good time to come back. In March, they took possession of their new building. Formerly Tonality Brewing, it already had most of the equipment needed for the business.

They'll serve a variety of brews, Fenton said, with a specialization in British- and Irish-style beers, and with a newly installed wood-fired pizza oven.

Back in his hometown and starting a business, Fenton is excited to officially open the doors, with plans to offer weekly events and music performances. He's already run into familiar faces, he said.

"It's a homecoming," Fenton said.

'PUSH AND PULL'

Lake County didn't always have such a cheerful relationship with alcohol. Diana Dretske, the Lake County historian at the Bess Bower Dunn Museum of Lake County, talked about the “push and pull” the county saw over alcohol consumption going back to the 19th century.

Even before Prohibition, there were strong anti-drinking sentiments throughout the county, with smaller communities going “dry,” creating laws prohibiting alcohol in various fashions.

It proved an issue for any brewers shipping through the county, such as the Besley Waukegan Brewery, which began in 1853. They'd have to redirect ship-

Pulte pulls plug on Naperville project

The development had called for 94 duplexes to be built on 32 acres

By Carolyn Stein NAPERVILLE SUN

A controversial development calling for 94 duplexes to be built on 32 acres of heavily wooded land near 75th Street and Gladstone Drive will not move forward.

The Naperville City Council was slated to vote on Naperville Ridge Tuesday night but Pulte Homes pulled the plug on the project several hours before the meeting's start.

“We value the longstanding partnership with the city of Naperville and are proud of what we have accomplished together,” Russ Whitaker, project attorney for Pulte, wrote in a letter to the city. “While we are disappointed that Naperville Ridge will not move forward as planned, we will continue to deliver much needed new home supply at current and future communities.”

Whitaker declined to comment for this story.

For months, the housing project received significant backlash from residents in the Naperville area, with many expressing concerns over its environmental impacts. An online opposition petition garnered more than 3,600 signatures and 80 people submitted position statements to the council against its approval.

"The problem was not simply the removal of 850 trees," Naperville resident Marilyn Schweitzer said. "The problem was the significant reduction and disturbance of ecosystems, PUD deviations driven primarily by the proposed density and a lack of overall community benefit."

If the development was approved, it would have required annexation into the city, rezoning to an R2 district for low-density, multifamily housing and a conditional use to allow it to be processed as a planned unit development.

Pulte was also requesting permission to build an 8-foot-tall fence along the east property line — when six feet is the typical height limit — and to plant fewer parkway trees than required by code.

The property has two wetlands and more than 2,000 trees. As part of the development, Pulte had planned to preserve both wetlands and save about 1,300 trees, with $55\%$ of the site remaining as open space. A separate organization would have been enlisted to help maintain the open space, with the efforts funded by a homeowners association.

US suspends Microsoft from H-1B visa program

Vance alleges fraud in firm's hiring of foreign employees

By Seung Min Kim and Rebecca Santana ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump's administration suspended tech giant Microsoft from a program to apply for green cards for workers who come to the U.S. to live and work using H-1B visas as it accused the company of fraud.

Supporters of the president have long argued that various programs like the one Vice President JD Vance accused Microsoft of abusing essentially empower U.S. companies to recruit foreign workers for jobs that end up undercutting Americans. In a wide-ranging announcement Thursday, Vance and other top administration officials also called out universities over their use of J-1 visas for international students and information technology outsourcing firms.

Vance said that the program from which Microsoft is being suspended requires companies to advertise jobs in America before applying to the Department of Labor to show they need to give a foreign worker a green card because of a lack of U.S. workers.

“They’ll put an advertisement in a small-town newspaper. They’ll go out there and say that ‘We have advertised for a position with our company, and nobody is responding to it.’ And they will use that lack of response to then go and replace American workers with what is effectively foreign indentured servants,” Vance said. “There has been no company in the United States, unfortunately, that has used this system more than Microsoft.”

Microsoft, based in Redmond, Washington, near Seattle, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Vance said Microsoft last year laid off 6,000 U.S. workers but also obtained 6,300 H-1B visas and almost 3,000 green cards.

"If you do the math, for every worker that Microsoft laid off, they replaced that worker with one and a half foreign indentured servants," Vance said in a White House news conference announcing the decision. "Our message to Microsoft is: You're a great American company, but you've got to hire great American workers."

Vance said H-1B workers are effectively foreign indentured servants because if they lose their job, they have to leave the country, and they earn less than Americans in the same position.

The H-IB program has long been a target of Trump supporters who say the program undercuts U.S. workers and is rife with abuse.

H-1B visas are meant for high-skilled jobs that are difficult to find U.S. workers to fill. Technology companies are the biggest users, with nearly three-quarters of approvals going to workers from India.

The Vance announcement came a day after Trump's administration launched another broadside against international students and their ability to work in the U.S.

The Department of Homeland Security on Wednesday proposed a \$70,000 fee for international students seeking to work in the United States. The proposed rule would require schools to pay the fee for every student who participates in the Optional Practical Training program, known as OPT, which allows students to work in jobs related to their major during or after their time in school.

Catering to picky pet palates

Cats, dogs serve as taste testers for companies chasing growing sector of food for aging animals

By Jenny Gross THE NEW YORK TIMES

AIMARGUES, France — Imagine dozens of cats napping or milling around a space that looks a lot like a pet daycare center.

Every day at 4 p.m., dinner is served. The cats step into cubbyholes, each with two trays of kibble atop scales. The cats choose which food they like better, and the scales measure how much they consume. Nutritionists at a Royal Canin pet center in southern France are watching: Which kibble do the animals prefer? How enthusiastically do they chow down? A team uses the data to adjust recipes and devise new ones.

Pet food makers like Royal Canin, owned by global consumer conglomerate Mars, are pouring money into research to understand the palates of cats and dogs — and to cater to people who see their pets as family members. Even as the war in Iran has spurred inflation and wage growth has not kept up, the pet food market has kept growing.

And as pandemic pets, adopted in droves in 2020, enter middle age, pet food makers are zeroing in on foods aimed at aiding aching joints, strengthening tired muscles and protecting cognitive function.

"Aging is one of the biggest opportunities," said Cécile Coutens, president of Royal Canin. The company's senior cat food line includes extra-soft mousse for cats ages 11 and older and easy-to-eat kibble for cats 15 and older.

Many companies sell supplements for cats with dementia and to support healthy brain aging.

Inflation has driven up the prices of conventional kibble (“croquettes” in French). And yet options in the dog and cat food aisles have become pricey and specialized, with brands selling fresh, human-grade food. Studies have shown that people will cut back on spending for themselves before their pets. Purina last year debuted a “tender cuts in elegant jelly” dish in a pyramid shape to encourage cats to take wide bites.

More than \$17 billion was spent on cat food in the United States over the last year, up 14% from the same period two years ago, according to NielsenIQ, a consumer research firm. (Dog food sales were roughly even.) In contrast with previous generations, when parents took in pets at the request of their children, people today often have pets before they have children, if they have children, Coutens said.

Companies are investing in premium pet food lines that cater to wealthier people, as the K-shaped economy — shorthand for the widening gap between the rich and poor — persists.

“We like cats a lot because cats are also pickier eaters, in a sense, so you need more science technology to actually cater to that successfully,” Philipp Navratil, CEO of Nestle, said at a conference in June. Cats have in recent years been adopted at higher rates than dogs, as people spend more time in the office.

Like Nestle, which has two centers where researchers study cat and dog behavior, Royal Canin has an extensive research program dedicated to dogs and cats. At Royal Canin's pet center in Aimargues, only the most discerning eaters of the 377 dogs and cats that live on campus participate in taste tests. The company's other pet center is in Ohio.

As part of training, kittens are offered food of different textures and flavors to develop their senses.

Staff underpaid by US company in Milan OK payout

By Colleen Barry ASSOCIATED PRESS

MILAN — Foreign workers building the new U.S. Consulate compound in Milan signed agreements Wednesday securing payouts averaging \$50,400 each for alleged labor abuses while working for an American construction company.

More than 60 laborers, mostly from India, signed the deals Wednesday to receive their share of a nearly \$35 million settlement agreed to last month with Alabama-based Caddell Construction.

Prosecutors say it is the largest settlement ever for labor exploitation in Europe.

Each worker signed a document agreeing not to discredit Caddell and not to disclose the individual payments. Caddell said in the document that the settlement was not an admission of liability.

The workers saw the sum for the first time at the signings — with the highest reaching nearly \$101,000, said Francesco Brigatti, the court-appointed administrator working to return the consulate construction site to legality.

The payouts combine unpaid overtime, reimbursement for housing illegally deducted from their pay and damages sought by investigating prosecutor Paolo Storari, Brigatti said.

Over two days, 115 workers signed the deals, with the procedure continuing next week.

Prosecutors say workers were paid less than \$2 an hour, were illegally docked money for housing and denied overtime for working up to 10 hours a day, six days a week. They also were allegedly subjected to threats and not given proper medical care when they were injured on the job. Most of the workers were from India, but also Nigeria, Kenya and Bangladesh.

The investigation against Caddell remains open, pending the payouts, which are expected to be completed by February. Two managers under investigation remain under house arrest.

Caddell's settlement includes \$12.5 million for Italy's social security coffers and workplace injury insurance. Under the deal, the workers are also getting permits to work in Italy even off the Caddell site.

WTO raises forecast for growth as AI boosts trade

By Jamey Keaten ASSOCIATED PRESS

GENEVA — The World Trade Organization is sharply increasing its forecast for merchandise trade growth worldwide this year, more than doubling its earlier prediction to 3.9% as booming AI investments offset a hit from the war in the Middle East.

The Geneva-based trade body says global trade chugged along at a hearty pace, as supply chains adapted and AI-related spending poured in to provide “a powerful boost to goods trade.”

The revised forecast marks a big jump from an initial WTO forecast in this spring for 1.9% growth for merchandise trade. The figure excludes services trade. The trade body forecast growth next year of 4.1%, up from 2.9% predicted in March.

"The revision reflects evidence that global supply chains adapted to disruptions in energy and fertilizer markets, while strong investment in AI-related infrastructure boosted trade in AI-enabling goods," WTO said.

Trade of oil and gas and fertilizer through the Persian Gulf was shaken after the U.S.--Israeli war against Iran began in February.

WTO said merchandise trade grew 3.5% in the first half of the year, powered by the artificial intelligence market.

“Demand for AI-enabling goods such as semiconductors and servers accounted for 47% of global merchandise trade growth in the first half of 2026, and trade in these products rose by 67% year-on-year, accelerating from the already rapid expansion seen in 2024 and 2025,” WTO said.

The WTO said it expects global GDP to grow 2.6% this year and 2.9% next, even though it predicted that the Mideast conflict will continue to weigh on trade with higher energy prices and transport route disruptions.

LONG-TERM MORTGAGE RATE RISES FOR 7TH STRAIGHT WEEK

Mortgage rates marched higher for the seventh week in a row, driving the average long-term U.S. home loan rate to its highest level in nearly three years.

The benchmark 30-year fixed-rate mortgage climbed to 7.40% from 7.28% last week, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday. One year ago, the average rate was 6.30%.

The average rate is now the highest it's been since Nov. 16, 2023, when it was at $7.44\%$ .

The housing market has been stuck in a rut this year in large part because of rising mortgage rates, which can add hundreds of dollars a month in costs for borrowers, limiting homebuyers' purchasing power and prompting many to put off buying a home.

Borrowing costs on 15-year fixed-rate mortgages also rose. That average rate increased to $6.73\%$ from $6.60\%$ last week. A year ago, it was at $5.53\%$ . — Associated Press

JOBLESS BENEFIT CLAIMS FELL TO STILL-LOW 197K LAST WEEK

WASHINGTON – The number of people applying for U.S. unemployment benefits fell slightly last week as layoffs remain low and most American workers enjoy job security.

The Labor Department said Thursday that initial jobless claims ticked down to 197,000 from a revised 199,000 the week before. The four-week average of claims, which smooths out week-to-week volatility, dropped by 2,500 to 198,000.

Claims for jobless benefits are a proxy for layoffs. So far this year, claims have remained at a historically low level below 220,000.

The report suggests that most companies are confident enough in the economy and their sales to hold onto their workers. At the same time, hiring has been sluggish, resulting in a “low-hire, low-fire” job market. Last month, the unemployment rate ticked up to a still-low 4.2%. — Associated Press

PEPSICO TO RAISE PRICES ON SOME ITEMS AFTER Q3 RESULTS

PepsiCo plans to raise prices on some snacks and drinks and slash corporate costs after a disappointing performance in North America during the third quarter.

The price hikes, which will hit Doritos, Ruffles, SunChips and some sodas, will be in the single-digit percentage range, and prices will still be lower than they were at the start of this year.

PepsiCo said Thursday that it must raise prices to recoup rising costs for fuel, aluminum and agricultural commodities.

It lowered its earnings expectations for the year, saying it now expects adjusted earnings per share to grow 2.5% to 3.5%.

Net revenue rose 5.6% to \$25.27 billion in the July-September period. Wall Street had expected revenue of \$24.95 billion.

Net income rose 17% to \$3.07 billion in the third quarter. — Associated Press

As Japan's population shrinks, city accused of padding census figures

By Hisako Ueno and Tiffany May THE NEW YORK TIMES

In Japan, one of the world's most rapidly graying societies, officials often face pressure to stem the tide of demographic decline, which can bring budget cuts and public shame. Now, one city is being accused of inflating its numbers to avoid the appearance of a shrinking population.

Regional police raided City Hall in Toyama, in western Japan, on Saturday after a central government ministry said it had found inconsistencies during a review of census data. Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications said last week that it had filed a complaint against city officials involved with the census, accusing them of inflating population numbers by adding empty households to the survey.

Experts say the falsification claims reflect the extremes that some local governments will take to maintain at least the appearance of stable population levels. Japan's population peaked at 128 million in 2008, and now stands at 123 million people, roughly the same size it was in 1989.

Toyama Mayor Hirohisa Fujii apologized in a statement Saturday and said city officials would cooperate fully with the police investigation. Falsifying statistics can be punishable by fines or imprisonment of up to six months under Japanese law.

Kenta Tsuji, an official at the population census division of the ministry, said inconsistencies in the data were discovered during the final review stage of census data. There was a discrepancy of nearly 3,000 people between a population estimate released in May and the final census record published last week.

The largest city in Toyama prefecture, and also its capital, Toyama sits at the edge of the Japanese Alps. Home to around 400,000 residents, it has been held up by the World Bank as a “global role model” of a compact city that has limited urban sprawl and an overreliance on cars.

Japan's national census is conducted every five years. In May, when a separate population count showed that the city's population had dipped below 400,000, Fujii expressed concern.

"While I view the 400,000 mark as just one milestone, I do believe this carries significant weight," he told reporters at the time. "The fact that we have dropped below this figure has made a strong impression on me."

Population estimates can be financially crucial for local governments. The central government typically allots subsidies to local governments according to their population size, and some smaller regions have faced significant budget cuts after drops in population.

On Oct. 2, Fujii said subsidies from the central government could drop by \$380,000 because of lower population as well as a decline in the number of schoolchildren.

Nobuo Sasaki, a professor emeritus of economics at Chuo University and an expert in urban administration, said the city may have tried “at all costs” to maintain its status as an equal to nearby cities — Kanazawa, population 450,000 and Niigata, population 750,000

— which have become increasingly popular as tourist destinations.

“Another possibility is that staff members, fearing that the city’s reputation as a successful model of compact city development would be tarnished, resorted to misconduct in an attempt to save face,” Sasaki said in an interview.

ments around dry communities, which was especially difficult in the days of horse-drawn carts.

Across the country, women were major advocates for Prohibition, and their efforts were a key step in giving women a place and voice in society, Dretske said.

“Women had been dealing with not having an income, so you have to rely on your husband, but then he’s spending it all at the bar,” she said. “It was hurting families the way it was before, just how available it was.”

As the temperance movement grew, the Besley Brewery attempted to change with the times, but was later sold around 1912. Only a few years later, Waukegan itself voted to go dry, a change driven in part by women who had recently gained the right to vote, Dretske said. It was the “death knell” for the brewery.

But in 1920, the rise of Prohibition created a new era for some Lake County communities. Chicago gangsters, or “ne’er do wells” as Dretske put it, would come up north to drink, party, and generally cause trouble.

The Chain O'Lakes area is especially well-known for its gangster connections back in the day. Fox Lake has what remains of the infamous Mineola Hotel, with its various Chicago mob connections, and Manning Hotel, the location of the “Fox Lake Massacre,” a 1930 gangland shooting in which three were killed.

While local farmers were known to operate their own small stills even through Prohibition, there wouldn't be another large official brewery in Lake County until 1942, Dretske said, when the Zeman Brewing Company opened in Gilmer. That remained in business until 1964, when a tornado destroyed the building.

Another brewpub wouldn't open until the 1990s, with Micky Finns in Libertyville, Dretske said. Recent decades have seen the rise of a new kind of brewing culture, as younger people began creating different drinks and brews, experimenting.

But Fenton, who considers himself part of the latest craft boom, said the industry has shifted as the trend has fallen. Breweries need more to stand out.

"It's definitely a hard time to be entering the industry," Fenton said. "These days, it's not enough to just have good beer. There are plenty of great breweries out there."

After all, the Fenton Brewery's current home was formerly Tonality Brewing Company. In the online post announcing its closure, Tonality said the “industry is hurting now more than ever.”

for the 32 acre property is unclear. The DuPage Water Commission, which has deemed the land as surplus, had planned to sell it to Pulte for \$14 million.

DuPage Water Commission Chair Jim Zay said Tuesday night that the commission's contract with Pulte runs until November. He does not know what the company's future intentions are, he said.

Rita Treonis, who had been speaking out against the development for months, was surprised to hear Tuesday afternoon that the proposal was withdrawn. She remains “cautiously optimistic” that a better use for the property would be found, she said.

“We’ll have to wait and see what happens next,” she said. “This is an important step, and hopefully opens doors for a more conservation-minded opportunity.”

She said she would love to see the DuPage Water Commission and the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County work together to protect the site.

Forest Preserve District Board President Daniel Hebreard previously wrote that he was supportive of the property remaining as open space. However, since there were no discussions between the DuPage Water Commission and the forest preserve district about the property, he said he was not supportive of the forest preserve district acquiring it.

Hebreard said Wednesday afternoon that neither he, nor the forest preserve district, have any comment on the future of the 32-acre property.

“Pulte has deep pockets and great lawyers,” Treonis said. “But the people and the trees here have deep roots.... As we await what happens next, the overwhelming majority are looking for a conservation-minded solution and stewardship that will preserve this pre-settlement forest.”

Southern states brace for hurricane

Mississippi to Florida in path of storm set to strengthen rapidly

By R.J. Rico, Dave Collins and Gerald Herbert ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAYOU LA BATRE, Ala. — Hurricane Isaias surged toward the Gulf Coast on Thursday as the first hurricane of the Atlantic season, prompting mandatory evacuations, school closures and local government shutdowns in parts of Florida.

Isaias was forecast to intensify rapidly and bring strong winds and a life-threatening storm surge to the Florida Panhandle, Alabama and Mississippi when it makes landfall along the northern Gulf Coast late Friday or early Saturday. Heavy rain and flooding were possible into the weekend as far inland as the Tennessee Valley.

“We are expecting Isaias to be a dangerous hurricane when it makes landfall,” said Michael Brennan, director of the National Hurricane Center in Miami.

He added: “Today is the day to prepare and get ready and be in your safe place by tomorrow as conditions will rapidly deteriorate along the northern Gulf Coast as Isaias approaches.”

The hurricane had maximum sustained winds of about 85 mph and was moving east-northeast at 10 mph Thursday afternoon, the hurricane center said.

Coastal communities moved quickly to prepare, as officials in the Alabama cities of Gulf Shores and Orange Beach urged tourists to evacuate immediately, warning that bridges could be closed by midday Friday. At least four Florida school districts canceled late-week classes, while several counties announced mandatory evacuations for some coastal areas. The governors of Florida and Alabama declared states of emergency for dozens of counties ahead of Isaias' arrival.

Dauphin Island, a 15-mile-long barrier island off the Alabama coast, encouraged some people to voluntarily evacuate.

“That area is traditionally very vulnerable to storm surge – saltwater flooding – and that is also where most of the visitors are,” Mayor Jeff Collier said Thursday of the western part of the island.

He said he didn't anticipate substantial damage, "but at the same time, these things are very fickle and a little jog here or there or some last-minute increase in strength, we just have to be prepared for the worst."

Water from the storm surge and high tide could reach heights of 5 to 7 feet in parts of Alabama and Mississippi, the hurricane center said. Isaias also could dump up to 15 inches of rain along parts of the Gulf Coast and spawn tornadoes overnight Friday into Saturday from Alabama to the Florida Panhandle and southwestern Georgia. The hurricane is expected to quickly weaken after making landfall.

The National Weather

Service told communities from Ocean Springs, Mississippi, to Gulf County, Florida, to prepare for the possibility of “long-duration power outages.”

Isaias developed more than four months into the Atlantic hurricane season and was one day short of tying a 121-year-old record for the area's latest-forming first hurricane. According to the weather service, the record dates to 1905, when the year's first Atlantic hurricane formed Oct. 8. The season ends Nov. 30.

The Atlantic hurricane season has been unusually quiet this year because of a strong El Niño, which disrupts storm formation over the Atlantic. Storm activity has been above average in the Pacific, where Tropical Storm Simon formed Wednesday off Mexico and was forecast to strengthen into a Category 4 hurricane. Farther north, Tropical Storm Rachel was expected to reach Baja California, Mexico, and Southern California this weekend.

Isaias is expected to strike a swath of coastline that's familiar with major hurricanes.

One of the 20th century's worst storms, Hurricane Camille, killed more than 250 people after hitting land near Waveland, Mississippi, in 1969. Hurricane Katrina in 2005 razed neighborhoods in Mississippi, flooded New Orleans and killed nearly

1,400 people. And Hurricane Michael leveled homes and buildings near Panama City, Florida, in 2018.

Ahead of the storm, oil and gas producers shut down a significant share of offshore production in the Gulf, which accounts for almost 15% of crude pumped annually in the country. About 63% of the oil production in the region had been temporarily halted, taking nearly 1.3 million barrels a day off the market, according to the Marine Minerals Administration. It said 121 of the Gulf's 371 staffed oil platforms had been evacuated.

With oil prices already high, the production cuts are enough to affect markets, though other Gulf hurricanes have caused larger disruptions, said Jim Burkhard, global head of crude oil market research for S&P Global Energy. More concerning, he said, is whether Isaias strikes as a powerful storm near refineries.

Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey issued a state of emergency for 40 counties, while Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis declared one for 25 counties in the Panhandle and Big Bend regions. The state also planned to deploy a Miami-based urban search and rescue task force.

In Pensacola, officials said the airport will close to commercial flights Friday morning, while utility crews prepared for outages and officials opened sandbag distribution sites.

Mayor D.C. Reeves urged residents to check on older adult neighbors and others who might need help. “Obviously no need to panic at this point,” Reeves said. “This is really about preparation.”

Ex-Venezuelan president faces new torture charges

US adds to drug case of strongman held at federal facility in NY

By Philip Marcelo, Michael R. Sisak and Joshua Goodman ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — U.S. authorities added new torture charges Thursday to their case against former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, ramping up pressure on the ousted authoritarian leader already fighting drug trafficking allegations.

Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, already charged with participating in a conspiracy to send cocaine into the U.S., now also face allegations of human rights abuses during his time as president of the oil-rich South American nation.

The updated indictment “alleges conduct that is truly unthinkable,” New York-based U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald said outside the courthouse where the case is being handled. He said thousands of Venezuelans, and some Americans, were tortured to ensure that

Maduro and Flores held onto power.

“This is the epitome of corruption,” McDonald said.

The allegations include electric shocks, beatings and asphyxiation at Maduro's behest. Maduro, the indictment claims, signed off on torture methods, sought and got updates on specific victims' treatment, watched a video of a forced confession and personally threatened the killing of one prisoner's child "as a form of psychological torture."

Flores, a former legislator and attorney general, helped develop the repressive system and ordered the torture of some specific people, the indictment contends.

A message seeking comment was sent to Maduro's lawyer. Flores' attorney said he hadn't yet had time to review the new allegations.

The couple pleaded not guilty in the U.S. drug case first brought years ago against them and numerous alleged co-conspirators. Their attorneys have asked for the case to be dismissed on the grounds that they have immunity as the leader and first lady of a foreign country.

They face potential sentences of life in prison if convicted.

Maduro, who served as Venezuela's president from 2013 until his capture in January, has been under investigation for years by the International Criminal Court over allegations of crimes against humanity, tied to his crackdown on opponents. He has always denied any wrongdoing.

Both Maduro and Flores have been behind bars in New York since early January, when forces seized them from their Caracas home in a middle-of-the-night raid. Flores' lawyers unsuccessfully asked a judge Thursday to release her on house arrest.

Outside the courthouse, over a dozen demonstrators chanted slogans and held signs supporting her request.

The revised indictment includes several mentions of the involvement of Venezuela's feared DGCIM military intelligence agency, which was headed for many years by one of Maduro's co-defendants, Gen. Hugo Carvajal. He broke with Maduro years ago, pleaded guilty last year to drug trafficking charges and has offered to testify against his former boss.

While the indictment doesn't name the alleged torture victims, three are described as U.S. citizens. One was punched, subjected to electric shocks and forced to eat his own vomit during eight months of imprisonment, the indictment says. Another was beaten badly enough to necessitate a long hospital stay and had a gun stuck in his mouth. A third was handcuffed, hooded and beaten for two days every half-hour, suffering a permanent eye injury, the indictment said.

Maduro has long ignored lawsuits brought in U.S. courts by Americans who alleged they were beaten while in custody in Venezuela.

Among those who sued is Matthew Heath, a former Marine corporal from Tennessee. He was arrested at a roadblock in Venezuela in 2020 and held in custody for more than two years.

In May, Heath and another former prisoner won a \$300 million default judgment against Maduro and other top Venezuelan officials for overseeing a pattern of torture. The lawsuit, brought under a federal anti-terrorism law, included allegations of waterboarding, electrocution, threats of rape with a nightstick, administration of mind-altering medications and the repeated use of a cramped cell nicknamed “El Tigrito.”

"It's incredible to see a dictator in court," Heath said Thursday upon learning of the new charges.

Meanwhile, Flores' lawyers argued that Flores, 69, has medical problems that cannot be treated effectively in jail. She has lost 25 pounds while imprisoned at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, might have suffered a minor heart attack in July, has "lingering lightheadedness, dizziness and shortness of breath," and has been told that she might need heart surgery, the attorneys said.

UK judge: Search warrants in former prince's Epstein case unlawful

By Danica Kirka and Brian Melley ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONDON – Police investigating former Prince Andrew's links to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein unlawfully searched his homes, a London judge said Thursday.

Justice Nicholas Hilliard said significant errors were made by Thames Valley Police in applying for search warrants and by a judge in granting them in the investigation into the disgraced former prince now known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

Mountbatten-Windsor was not in court, but he was already aware of the partial legal victory because police had previously conceded in July that the warrants were improper.

Police, however, had tried to keep the matter out of the public eye while the investigation continued, leading to a delay in its revelation.

Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested Feb. 19 on suspicion of misconduct in public office and police searched two of his homes.

His lawyers had asked the High Court judge to invalidate the warrants that allowed those searches.

Attorney Mark Stephens, who wasn't involved in the case, said the development "opens a door to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's lawyers to start to chisel away at some of the fruits of that unlawful warrant."

The judge, however, said “the fact that the search warrants were quashed does not bring an investigation to an end, or mean that the whole of the investigation was unlawful.”

Hilliard said he still needs to rule on whether to return Mountbatten-Windsor's property because there's a provision by which police can retain unlawfully seized property for evidence. Stephens said there will be further hearings to determine exactly what, if any, evidence would be thrown out.

"The judge will make that decision based on whether or not it's likely to be probative," Stephens said. "But, of course, it's very different in other countries. For example, in America, if you have the fruits of an unlawful warrant, then all that evidence is out. But that's not the case in the U.K., so we've got a few more rounds to go here."

The judge said the warrants were unlawful because the judge who issued them had not considered whether items being seized were subject to legal privilege or another protection known as “special procedure material.”

Thames Valley Police said in a statement that it accepted that the warrants must be quashed, but said the investigation was continuing.

King Charles III stripped his younger brother of his princely title last year as he sought to shield the rest of the royal family from the continuing fallout from Mountbatten-Windsor's links to Epstein.

Satellites reveal scope of Gaza's pain

Photos illustrate how little of communities remain after razing

By Lee Keath and Wafaa Shurafa ASSOCIATED PRESS

DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip – It's perhaps the most dramatic wound inflicted on the Gaza Strip by Israel's military campaign over the past three years: The city of Rafah, once home to a quarter million people, has been erased.

Satellite imagery shows the Israeli military has systematically razed the southern city and other towns and districts to the ground and in some places plowed away the rubble. Demolition, using bulldozers and explosives, has continued unabated since the Israel-Hamas cease-fire deal reached a year ago, as the military solidifies its hold on just over 60% of the territory that it still controls.

Gaza's mangled landscape is just one of the wounds on top of wounds that the enclave's 2 million Palestinians have endured since Israel launched its campaign to destroy Hamas after the militants' Oct. 7, 2023, attack on southern Israel.

More than 1 out of every 10 people from Gaza's prewar population has been killed or wounded by Israeli fire. While nearly every family mourns dead or cares for wounded, most also had to move multiple times to escape fighting and Israeli evacuation orders. With almost the entire population homeless, the coastal territory is now effectively one of the world's most populated tent cities. Ramshackle canvas and nylon shelters blanket beaches as well as former agricultural lands and empty lots.

Little is likely to change for the foreseeable future.

While the ceasefire deal stopped the offensives and heaviest bombardment, Israel hits tents, cars and buildings almost daily in strikes that it says target Hamas members — but that regularly kill women, children and other family members.

People no longer have to flee from place to place, but few can rebuild homes because Israel bars most construction material from entering Gaza. The ceasefire agreement's plan for the large-scale reconstruction of Gaza has never gotten off the ground because Israel and Hamas have failed to reach a deal on disarming the militant group.

In the meantime, Palestinians wrestle with tragedy.

Najwa Abu Eita lost her 7-year-old daughter when Israeli forces struck her home in the central refugee camp of Nuseirat in September 2024, and her three other children were injured in the attack. Abu Eita lost an eye, her face remains heavily damaged and scarred, and she has trouble breathing.

A hairdresser before the war, she now has no work, living in a tent by the ruins of her home. Worst of all, she says, her children are frightened by her face and avoid looking at her.

"My 4-year-old son tells me, 'Momma, I'll give you one of my eyes.' And inside, I'm weeping," she said.

Gaza's population is squeezed into about $40\%$ of the tiny territory, and Israel's military controls the rest. Satellite imagery by Planet Labs PBC shows that the vast majority of buildings in the Israel-held part have been bulldozed or exploded down to piles of rubble, much of it after major fighting ended a year ago.

The Israeli military says it demolishes buildings to prevent their use by Hamas militants or to destroy the group's tunnel networks.

But a U.N.-appointed expert said in a February report that the scale of destruction of civilian housing and infrastructure in Gaza "is unprecedented even by the terrible standards of modern warfare since the

20th century."

The report warned that it could constitute a crime against humanity or reach the level of genocide, which under international law includes “deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about physical destruction.”

Israel rejects accusations of genocide, saying it targets Hamas militants and their infrastructure that are interwoven with civilian areas.

The Planet Labs imagery shows at least 50 Israeli military outposts built throughout the Israeli-held part of Gaza, at least 18 of them constructed since the ceasefire began. Many have been put on top of former neighborhoods where the rubble of demolished buildings nearby has been cleared away.

Most of Rafah was razed before the ceasefire, but images show that troops continue to demolish the few remaining buildings. Several abandoned U.N. buildings have been spared, as well as a municipal sports field that now appears to contain a military base.

A new base also stands on what was once the main intersection of the southern town of Bani Suheila. Leveled over the past year, the town is now a wasteland intersected by a spiderweb of dirt paths that were once streets.

In Jabaliya in the north, most of the al-Awda Hospital Complex was reduced to rubble in recent months, as were a number of U.N.-run school buildings, satellite images show. Jabaliya was once home to the Gaza Strip's biggest refugee camp, home to some 120,000 refugees and tens of thousands of other residents in a densely built urban district.

Now one of the few buildings still standing is the octagonal-shaped Indonesian Hospital, empty since troops shut it down in June 2025. The Israeli military built a new base nearby.

An increased flow of aid and commercial products brought Gaza back from famine that arose in some areas last year under a monthslong Israeli ban on food and other goods. But most of the population remains dependent on international relief. Jobs are few, mostly connected to selling in the market.

Shadi Barawi, 35, lost his father early in the war. Soon after that, Barawi was hit by shrapnel from a strike near his home in Gaza City, and his leg was amputated — one of some 6,000 amputees left by the war.

After losing his leg, “I lost all hope in life,” he said. But he was the sole support, he said, for his own family of six and his five sisters.

A barber before the war, he returned to giving haircuts to earn some money. With no prosthetic limb, he balances on his crutches as he works in the same tent where he lives.

"I'm on one leg," he said. "I might do cuts for three customers, then I get tired and stop and rest, but then I keep going."

Thousands of bodies remain buried under buildings smashed by Israeli strikes. Since the ceasefire, Gaza authorities have been going from site to site to try to find them.

Last week, a search team came to the Gaza City home of Haneen al-Khodari.

When her building was hit in December 2023, al-Khodari was thrown into a nearby tree, and after weeks in the hospital, she was told her parents, siblings and many of her cousins were killed, she said. The bodies of 17 of them remained trapped under wreckage ever since.

But after eight hours digging through the ruins, the team only recovered the remains of a child and two bones. The search for the rest was called off.

Al-Khodari sat on the pavement, her hopes dashed.

A plastic sheet on the ground in front of her contained what they had found, labeled with the words, "Mixed bones."

Russian strike on public buses kills at least 30, Ukrainians say

By Hanna Arhirova ASSOCIATED PRESS

KYIV, Ukraine — A Russian guided bomb exploded next to public buses filled with passengers in eastern Ukraine, authorities said Thursday, killing 30 people as part of a wave of attacks that also worsened power outages in the capital.

The morning attack occurred next to a bus stop in the war-torn city of Kramatorsk in Ukraine's Donetsk region, prompting public transport to be suspended in the area.

"There is no doubt that Russia is cynically targeting civilians," said Oleksandr Honcharenko, head of the city's military administration, adding that the rescue effort had been hampered by subsequent Russian attacks using small drones.

Russia and Ukraine are locked in a long-range aerial war while their armies remain largely deadlocked on the front line, more than $4 \frac{1}{2}$ years since Moscow's full-scale invasion.

Russia has escalated its aerial attack in recent weeks, putting pressure on Ukraine as it prepares for winter and hitting the infrastructure keeping its war-battered economy afloat.

Recent targets have included energy systems, key industries, railways, post offices, shopping centers, telecom networks, gas stations and grain exports.

Thursday's attack followed a Russian missile strike a day earlier that killed 22, including five children, in the northern Ukrainian town of Pryluky. Rescuers were searching the rubble of a residential building. At least 54 people were wounded. Several survivors slept in heavily damaged apartments because they couldn't find anywhere else to stay.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy traveled Thursday to Pryluky with visiting British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband, who announced new sanctions on Russia.

Zelenskyy appealed for additional defense support from NATO countries.

"It is important that support in words takes concrete form in new packages for Ukraine's defense," he wrote in an online post. "Supplies of anti-ballistic capabilities, ammunition for our combat aircraft and investments in interceptors

—all of this is directly helping save lives every day.”

Ukraine's energy company DTEK said national grid operator Ukrenergo had ordered emergency power outages in Kyiv.

Regular, rolling outages that occur on a schedule across the country will be halted during these shutdowns.

Officials are urging families to prepare emergency kits, store drinking water and maintain backup power sources, as Moscow keeps up the intensity of its attacks.

Also Thursday, Ukraine said its forces struck a large oil refinery complex in the city of Salavat, some 750 miles east of Moscow.

Ukraine's General Staff described the complex as one of Russia's largest oil refining and petrochemical facilities. The claim could not be independently verified.

Ukrainian drones also reached Russia's Omsk region in western Siberia, more than 1,240 miles from the border with Ukraine.

Omsk regional Gov. Vitaly Khotsenko said most of the drones were shot down by air defenses, but one “reached a northern industrial hub.”

He didn't elaborate.

Russian independent news outlet Astra reported that the Omsk oil refinery was on fire after the attack.

There was no official confirmation of the report.

Media attorney asks court to help prevent Trump's White House ban

WASHINGTON — An attorney for three news organizations told a federal judge Thursday that the Trump administration must be prevented from barring their reporters from the White House, saying the ban is a classic example of “viewpoint discrimination” that is punishing people for what they say — and violating the media outlets’ First Amendment rights.

The hearing was the latest development in the escalating drama between the Trump administration and the news media, which has raged in various arenas during his second term as president. At its core, though, are multiple free-speech questions. The dispute has produced sanctions and restrictions on White House and Pentagon reporters and led to several lawsuits that are progressing through the federal court system.

U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly said he intended to rule by Tuesday, possibly sooner, on whether to extend his earlier order restoring White House access for journalists from MS NOW, CNN and Politico. Granting the news outlets' request for a preliminary injunction would preserve the status quo — access — until the litigation is resolved.

Kelly, nominated to the bench by Republican President Donald Trump, didn't say how he intends to rule but described key government arguments as an “uphill climb” and a “tough lift.” The judge also challenged a government attorney to specify the national security concerns that the administration claims are at stake.

“We’ve always been clear that it’s not just national security,” Justice Department attorney Michael Velchik said, arguing that false reporting can impact policy and adversely affect national security. "He doesn't mind negative press stories if he deserves them. He has problems with trafficking verifiable falsehoods," Velchik said of Trump.

Theodore Boutrous, an attorney for the media plaintiffs, said the government was continuing to discriminate against viewpoints and reporting it doesn't like.

"He doesn't like scrutiny of his policies, he doesn't like the reporting, he wants more good press," Boutrous said in court. That's a content-based restriction on speech and a clear violation of the First Amendment, he said.

Velchik said some of the issues the White House has with the banned news organizations' reporting include "quotations that are not actually said," the use of anonymous sources and splicing interviews to insert different questions than what the interviewee was asked. "I do think that we've identified specific allegations for each individual outlet," he said.

The hearing was made available to media and the public via a public access number, but the audio was often faint and unintelligible.

The case has been going on since last month, shortly after Trump banned the outlets from the White House grounds, saying he objected to their reporting.

The news organizations want longer-term relief until the entire case is resolved, and a temporary restraining order was due to expire Thursday. But the judge extended it until Tuesday and said he intends to rule by then on whether to issue the preliminary injunction.

The hearing before Kelly came nearly three weeks after CNN, MS NOW and Politico were abruptly banished from White House grounds, with the president decrying their “fake news.” A spokesperson for CNN said the network had been allowed to fulfill its pool duties Tuesday, and is next scheduled for Sunday.

Although the journalists were allowed back in by Kelly's order, the administration continued to selectively exclude CNN from its duties in the White House broadcast pool.

Trump insists that he doesn't have to let news outlets whose reports he dislikes onto White House grounds.

"When it comes to the White House, it is the people's house," Attorney General Todd Blanche said on ABC recently, invoking an argument the administration has made since the beginning. "It is a privilege, and not a right, to be there."

The news organizations say that approach violates the Constitution's amendments protecting free speech and due process.

Trump aides assist pro-Russia party

Political adviser James Blair traveled to Republika Srpska to provide advice to a Russian-aligned government. HAIYUN JIANG/THE NEW YORK TIMES 2025

Advisers made trip to Balkans with GOP fortunes still in doubt

By Kenneth P. Vogel THE NEW YORK TIMES

WASHINGTON — As President Donald Trump crisscrossed the country last week trying to help his party avoid a blowout in next month's midterm elections, two of his top political advisers were in the Balkans helping a pro-Russian government looking to tighten its grip on power.

James Blair and Chris LaCivita, who are leading a big-money midterm advertising campaign for the Trump political operation, spent some of the past few days in a small self-governing territory in Bosnia and Herzegovina called Republika Srpska before elections there last Sunday, according to four people familiar with their travels who requested anonymity.

The engagement is the latest example of Trump advisers profiting from far-right politicians abroad who have sought favor from the U.S. president while bucking the international community.

Blair and LaCivita were paid hundreds of thousands of dollars each through a Washington-based law firm that was retained by Republika Srpska's government to provide counsel on voting issues, according to two of the people familiar with the engagement.

Under the control of that party, Republika Srpska has aligned itself with Russian President Vladimir Putin while spending heavily to court Trump and his supporters.

Trump's allies have promoted the party's embrace of Christian conservatism and its resistance to joining the European Union.

In the run-up to last Sunday's elections, the party had warned that its hold on power could have been threatened by the debut of voting machines like those that Trump and his allies continue to falsely blame for his loss in the 2020 presidential election.

Some delays and technical issues were reported during voting last Sunday. But the nationalist party won convincingly.

In a victory speech late last Sunday, Milorad Dodik, the party's leader and until recently the autocratic president of Republika Srpska, thanked Putin for his support and credited Trump's 2024 victory with creating a favorable political environment, according to media reports.

The Republika Srpska government did not respond to requests for comment about the work or payments for it.

It is not uncommon for political consultants, lawyers and lobbyists with ties to U.S. presidents to offer their services to foreign govern- ments and campaigns.

But it is notable that the trip to Republika Srpska, from which Blair and LaCivita returned Monday, came as they were playing key roles in the Trump team's efforts to limit Democratic gains and preserve Republican control of Congress.

Blair, who was the political director of Trump's 2024 campaign, left his role as a deputy chief of staff at the White House in the spring to run MAGA Inc., the Trump-backed super political action committee expected to spend heavily to help Republican candidates from the \$415 million it had in the bank at the end of August. LaCivita, the co-manager of Trump's 2024 campaign, is a senior adviser to MAGA Inc.

Alex Pfeiffer, a spokesperson for MAGA Inc., declined to comment on the trip to the Balkans.

But he said that during the travel, Blair and LaCivita remained engaged in the midterm effort of the PAC.

Blair and LaCivita are not the only Trump allies who have accepted payment to help the Srpska government.

Lobbyists and operatives with connections to Trump and his Republican allies have been paid more than \$4 million by the government of Republika Srpska since the beginning of last year, according to records filed with the Justice Department.

The influence campaign scored a major victory late last year when the Trump administration lifted sanctions on Dodik, his family and his aides.

The sanctions were first imposed on Dodik in the final days of the Obama administration. They remained in effect during the first Trump administration and were supplemented during the

Biden administration.

They were punishment for Dodik having undermined the U.S.-backed Dayton Accords peace agreement. Signed in 1995, it ended bloody sectarian fighting in the 1990s between Bosnian Muslims, Serbs and Croats in the former Yugoslavia. It enshrined Republika Srpska, which is overwhelmingly Serbian and Christian, as one of two political divisions in Bosnia and Herzegovina. And it created a tripartite presidency that governs Bosnia. It consists of a Serb seat, which Dodik's party retained during last Sunday's elections, as well as a seat for Muslims, who are known as Bosniaks, and Croats.

Dodik has been the dominant political figure in Srpska for decades. Once considered a moderate who would de-escalate sectarian tensions, he largely fell out of favor in the international community as he increasingly embraced Serbian nationalism and Moscow.

Dodik's allies have sought to cast him as a sort of Trump of the Balkans. They present him as the victim of the same sort of political prosecutions that Trump claims he and his allies have faced, and as someone willing to cut lucrative deals with Washington.

Dodik also was convicted by the Bosnian court system for disobeying the international entity overseeing the Dayton agreement, resulting in his removal as president last year and a ban from holding office.

But the support of Trump allies and the lifting of the sanctions has helped Dodik and his party weather domestic and international pressures that could have weakened him, said Adnan Cerimagic, an analyst at the European Stability Initiative, a Berlin-based think tank.

Arkansas ad sparks conservative backlash

Commentators slam image of white man as lazy welfare user

By Laura Turbay and Terry Tang ASSOCIATED PRESS

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — A new video from Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders was standard-issue Republican messaging for promoting her state's stricter rules for people on Medicaid. No more could able-bodied people lounge around while receiving taxpayer-funded healthcare, she said — they needed to work.

But the decision to portray an unemployed moocher as a young, white, cheeseball-chomping gamer named Brad upset some conservative commentators last week. Five decades after candidate Ronald Reagan popularized the “welfare queen” trope about people living luxuriously while not working, they wanted to know why the video wasn’t featuring a Black woman instead.

Republicans don't have the fortitude “to do this ad with ‘Shaniqua’ as the villain,” posted Matt Walsh, a conservative writer. “Even though that would actually be an accurate portrayal of the problem at hand.”

Sean Davis, co-founder of the Federalist website, wrote that “our government has systematically discriminated against white men for decades now, and yet now has the audacity to dishonestly mock young white men as welfare queens.”

Never mind that the video was about Medicaid, not welfare, or that most Medicaid recipients in Arkansas are white. The outrage was a reminder of how old tropes are “chronically accessible” images in some voters’ minds, said Ange-Marie Hancock, author of “The Politics of Disgust and the Public Identity of the ‘Welfare Queen.’”

She thinks the Arkansas video was supposed to appeal to older voters living with unemployed adult children.

But conservatives could only focus on race, Hancock said, because the idea of a Black welfare abuser has worked for them for decades.

"The longer race and gendered history really points to ideas that African Americans are lazy, they don't do the right thing," she said.

The debate that streaked across social media was the latest example of how conservatives have recently wrestled with racist views.

Last month, a Texas political candidate named Bo French posted a picture of nonwhite students cheering at a University of Texas football game, saying “the problem is now obviously far worse than anyone imagined.”

Some Republicans denounced French's post, while it was embraced by those who fear the country's changing demographics.

Sanders, who is running for reelection this year, "stands by the ad," said Jordan Powell, her campaign

manager.

"We should never confiscate money from hard-working Arkansans to give it away to those who simply choose not to work at all," Powell said in an emailed statement.

'WELFARE QUEEN' MYTH DATES BACK TO 1976

The “welfare queen” trope is often used to advance restrictions on public assistance programs.

While unsuccessfully running for president in 1976, Reagan complained about a woman in Chicago who was using “80 names, 30 addresses, 12 Social Security cards” to game the system. The story was embellished, but Reagan worked to reshape public assistance programs after winning the White House in 1980.

Allison Butler, author of "The Judgment of Gender: How Women are Centered and Silenced in Pop Culture," said the debate perpetuated a powerful myth that women of color were siphoning government assistance.

"When you deconstructed that narrative and actually tried to find the source of it ... there was no woman of color who wouldn't get a job and had multiple televisions and a Mercedes-Benz," Butler said.

Barry Jefferson, president of the NAACP Arkansas State Conference, has condemned the Sanders ad for reducing low-income people to a stereotype where poverty is seen as a flaw. It ignores the complexities that make it harder for low-income people, regardless of race, to support themselves, he said.

“We shouldn’t betray anyone because they are asking for help and they don’t meet your standards,” Jefferson said.

BREAKING DOWN DEMOGRAPHICS OF MEDICAID USERS

Created in 1965 as a joint federal and state health insurance program, Medicaid offers free or low-cost medical coverage to people with limited income, including the elderly, children or adults with disabilities who cannot work. Nearly 66 million people were enrolled in Medicaid as of June, according to the Medicaid.gov website.

More than 38% of beneficiaries between birth and age 64 are white, according to 2024 data from research organization KFF. Nearly 19% are Black.

More work requirements for some Medicaid beneficiaries kicked in across the country this year under President Donald Trump's 2025 tax cut and policy law. A handful of GOP-led states, including Arkansas, are going beyond what the law calls for to prevent fraud, including demanding more documentation if someone is too medically frail to work.

In July, Sanders soft-launched mandating that healthy people ages 19 to 64 find work, volunteer or attend school at least 80 hours per month to stay in the Arkansas Health and Opportunity for Me Medicaid program, or ARHOME.

Robert Coon, managing partner at Impact Management Group, a political consulting and public-opinion firm with an Arkansas office, said that welfare work requirement policy is generally favored in Arkansas.

But suggestions the person in the ad should be Black are “overtly racist” and “inaccurate,” Coon said.

About 60% of ARHOME recipients are white and around 18% are Black, according to recent data from the state Department of Human Services.

WHY BLACK PEOPLE OFTEN EXPERIENCE NEED AT HIGHER RATE

Right-wing rhetoric about Black Americans and public assistance often ignores how generations of structural racism have produced economic disparities that contribute to their disproportionate participation in these programs.

Fewer Black people than white people overall use social service programs like Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or food stamps. But at roughly 13% of the U.S. population, Black people make up the largest over-representation of any racial group. They are 18.5% and 25%, respectively, of Medicaid and SNAP recipients.

Those statistics reflect a difficult road for poor Black communities looking to rise out of poverty and build generational wealth.

Arkansas Democratic congressional candidate Chris Jones, who is Black, grew up in a family relying on food stamps. A welfare recipient is not “looking for a way out of work,” but “for a way forward,” he said in a statement.

The bigger question, Jones said, is not race but “why so many people who are working hard still struggle to afford groceries, housing, healthcare and the basic necessities of life.”

NEWS BRIEFING

In Greece, Rubio refuses to address alleged poor conduct by ambassador

FROM NEWS SERVICES

ATHENS, Greece — U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Thursday flatly refused to comment on a report alleging that Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle engaged in improper and possibly illegal conduct before taking up her post.

Meanwhile, Vice President JD Vance said “I don’t love” the idea of a U.S. official asking another person to pay off debts in exchange for access to other government officials, but declined to comment further until he knew all the details.

During a trip to Greece, Rubio told reporters he would not discuss the allegations in a Wall Street Journal story that said Guilfoyle had asked a donor and supporter of President Donald Trump to pay a \$100,000 credit card bill just before her confirmation hearing, promising him access to administration officials if he did.

He spoke before leaving Greece, where he delivered a speech calling for European countries to return to what he described as their civilizational roots.

Rubio said he was aware of The Wall Street Journal's report from late Wednesday but had no idea if it was true and he would not address it.

"You guys walk around thinking that because some source told you something and you reported it, it's the gospel. It's not the gospel. It's not the gospel for me. That's not the way we do things," he said at the foot of his plane as Guilfoyle was there to see him depart Greece.

At a joint news conference with the Greek foreign minister Wednesday, Rubio said he would not address the allegations while visiting a foreign country, but added: "Suffice it to say our embassy here is doing a great job. Our ambassador has been a strong ambassador here."

The top two Democrats on the House Foreign Affairs and Senate Foreign Relations committees have called for an investigation into Guilfoyle, but Rubio would not say if he was prepared to open one.

Congressional Democrats already were looking into claims reported last month by the Journal that Guilfoyle acted improperly as the top U.S. envoy to Greece.

The Journal reported that Guilfoyle told guests at a reception that the U.S. could undermine the Greek government if it chose to, promoted the business interests of one particular Greek construction and energy company, and allowed its lobbyist into rivate diplomatic meetings.

Guilfoyle, a former Fox News Channel host and California prosecutor who was once engaged to Trump's son Donald Jr., has denied any wrongdoing, and Rubio has defended her before.

Public firing squad: The Pentagon says the firing squad execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan will be livestreamed after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the execution would be “public.”

Hegseth, speaking to the conservative TV outlet Real America's Voice News on Wednesday, said the execution of Hasan, an Army psychiatrist who held the rank of major, will take place Dec. 3 at Fort Hood in Texas.

Hasan was convicted of killing 13 people and injuring 32 others in a shooting at the military base in 2009.

“We’ll make sure that people are able to watch it, that it’s public,” Hegseth said.

Officials in the Pentagon clarified Thursday that the execution will be livestreamed and that more details would follow.

Hasan walked into a medical building where soldiers were waiting in long lines to receive immunizations and medical clearance for deployment. He shouted “Allahu akbar” — Arabic for “God is great!” — and fired a lasersighted handgun.

Experts on military law said Hasan could choose to resist execution and file a habeas petition in civilian court, which could significantly delay the execution.

Air base suspect: A 22-year-old British man arrested on suspicion of plotting a terror attack following a security incident at a U.S.-run military air base in England has been released on bail, authorities said Thursday.

The suspect, who was not named, is the seventh man bailed in the investigation of an apparent plot aimed at RAF Fairford air base, which has been used by American bombers to strike Iran.

British authorities have linked Tehran to the incident that led the U.S. to pull its bombers from RAF Fairford on Sunday.

Hacking case: The FBI has seized scanning and phishing tools used by a group of hackers that officials say is associated with the Chinese government and responsible for disruptive cyber operations in the United States and abroad, including against the power industry, academia and critical infrastructure.

The seizure of the tools, announced Wednesday by the FBI and Justice Department, represents the latest law enforcement effort in recent years to go after a broad hacking campaign known to the private sector as Flax Typhoon.

The tools were used to target, among other entities, an unnamed power company in the U.S., Japanese and Polish airports, Taiwanese universities, a multinational, nongovernmental organization and Taiwanese critical infrastructure companies.

The tools were operated by a Chinese-based information security company, Integrity Technology Group, which the FBI has said is closely associated with China's government and is the actual identity of Flax Typhoon.

Tennessee shooting: A man armed with a pistol and knife was fatally shot by a security officer Thursday just inside the busy entrance of a federal courthouse in Tennessee's largest city, authorities said.

The man in his 40s tried to fire his gun but failed and then pulled out a knife at around 9:30 a.m., said Don Aaron, spokesperson for Metro Nashville Police.

"The security individual fired on the armed individual," Aaron said, adding that the man was pronounced dead at a hospital.

The man was from out of state. Investigators didn't immediately know why he was at the courthouse, and a search of his car found “nothing threatening,” Aaron said.

Courthouse visitors must go through a security checkpoint, which is common at all federal courts. The entrances are typically staffed by armed former police officers contracted by the U.S. Marshals Service.

The library next door was closed as a result, and officers with dogs were circling the perimeter while workers in nearby buildings gathered to watch.

Russian research lab: A Russian official Thursday sought to turn the page on the suspicious death of a worker Oct. 2 at a plague research lab in Siberia, saying a quarantine and other preventive measures had been completed with no dangerous pathogens detected.

The statement by Irkutsk Gov. Igor Kobzev came a day after the World Health Organization requested more information from Russia about the death of the worker at the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Institute of Siberia that sparked global concerns.

Kobzev's statement didn't provide details about what exactly caused the woman's pneumonia and what kind of pathogens she worked with. He also did not explicitly say that her death was not caused by pneumonic plague.

He also said she had been “vaccinated and immune” to the pathogens she worked with at the institute.

Astronaut crew lands off coast of California after 237 days in space

By Marcia Dunn ASSOCIATED PRESS

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Four people returned to Earth from the International Space Station on Thursday after hurrying there eight months ago to replace an ailing colleague and his crew.

SpaceX brought the U.S., French and Russian flyers back with a splashdown in the Pacific off California.

NASA's Jessica Meir and Jack Hathaway, France's Sophie Adenot and Russia's Andrey Fedyaev departed the orbiting lab Wednesday, eager to reunite with their families after a lengthy separation. Their replacements arrived three weeks late because of capsule repairs, stalling this crew's homecoming.

They couldn't wait to feel the breeze on their faces, hit the shower and, for Adenot at least, plunge back into water sports.

Her 237 days in orbit set an endurance record for the European Space Agency.

"We are so excited to be back on Planet Earth after an incredible mission on the International Space Station," Meir radioed moments after splashing down. While still in orbit, she said the crew had "a lot of mixed, swirling emotions" and would miss the "extraordinary views of our home planet."

All four were out of their capsule within an hour, waving and pumping their fists in the air aboard SpaceX's recovery ship. After a helicopter ride to shore, they were going to head for Houston.

Meir and her crew left the planet in February to replace four station occupants who were sent home early after one of them — NASA's Mike Fincke, now retired — fell ill. It was NASA's first medical evacuation in 65 years of human spaceflight.

The new foursome watched with pride two months later as the Artemis II astronauts flew around the moon. They also celebrated the United States' 250th birthday up there, with Meir joining the Boston Pops with her piccolo for a Fourth of July concert.

Meir took part in four spacewalks, while Adenot ventured outside three times for maintenance and upgrades to the 28-year-old outpost.

In the middle of all the work, the astronauts found time for fun, throwing a dance party last month and holding regular cooking demonstrations complete with aprons and a chef's toque.

Meir presented a how-to video for curly-haired space-women like herself, while Hathaway kept his bushy mustache — a space rarity — groomed to perfection. He grew the naval aviator-style mustache before rocketing into orbit as a way to honor his Navy ties, and found it no harder to maintain in weightlessness than on Earth. Some ground controllers grew mustaches in solidarity.

Will his mustache disappear now that his mission is over?

"It's kind of become a little bit of my brand up here," Hathaway said in August, "so I don't know if it'll go away right away or I'll end up keeping it for a while."

Seven astronauts remain aboard the space station, representing the U.S., Russia and Canada. The outpost has welcomed 298 visitors from 26 countries since the doors swung open in 2000, by NASA's count.

SpaceX is now gearing up for a space station supply run next week. Elon Musk's company will launch more than 6,000 pounds of cargo, including the last of a series of solar panel additions, toilet pump, spacewalking suit, and fresh fruit and other goodies.

Army report on DC crash cites systemic failures, suggests fixes

ASSOCIATED PRESS

The U.S. Army found systemic safety breakdowns behind last year's midair collision between an American Airlines jet and a Black Hawk helicopter near Washington, D.C., and recommended changes to prevent future tragedies.

The Army report — completed in May and released publicly Thursday after months of pressure from the victims' families — identified failures involving air traffic control, helicopter routes, training and safety practices. The Associated Press obtained a copy of the report hours before it was released.

The deadliest plane crash in the U.S. in over two decades happened when the helicopter collided with the descending airliner as it approached the runway, sending both plummeting into the icy Potomac River and killing 67 people.

The Army report highlighted how the air traffic controller at Reagan could have prevented the crash, but it also acknowledged the military's own failings and other contributing factors.

Tim Lilley, a former Army Black Hawk pilot whose son Sam Lilley was the airliner's first officer, said the report leaves important questions unanswered. Parts were redacted, and responsibility for the Army's failures was assigned broadly rather than to individuals.

"The Army owes the families and the American public a full accounting of how these risks were allowed to persist, who was responsible for the decisions that allowed them to persist and what will be done to make sure this never happens again," said Lilley, now a commercial jet captain.

The Army acknowledged that in a statement Thursday.

“We recognize the families’ need for answers and remain committed to transparency regarding the Army's review," it said.

While the report largely reinforces the National Transportation Safety Board's conclusions, the civilian investigation was broader and emphasized years of missed warnings by the Federal Aviation Administration along with a weak military safety culture.

The Army faulted the air traffic controller for not giving the helicopter crew more precise information about the approaching jet and for not warning the jet's pilot about the helicopter. After the crash, the FAA prohibited controllers from relying on pilots to maintain visual separation in busy airspace.

The report recommended looking beyond Washington to examine military helicopter operations in other major cities for similar risks. An Army official said the review of helicopter flights in other cities, including Los Angeles and the Seattle-Tacoma region, is ongoing. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the situation publicly.

The lieutenant general who authored the report cited “breakdowns across all layers of conflict management” but singled out two failed radio transmissions that contributed to the helicopter crew not identifying the jet. The military pilots' night-vision goggles also restricted their view and made it hard to spot the plane amid the city lights.

The poorly designed helicopter route allowed a scant 75 feet of vertical separation between a helicopter and a plane landing on the airport's secondary runway, assuming helicopters stayed near the riverbank, which the route didn't require. This did not allow enough separation to account for the accepted level of error in a Black Hawk's altimeter, and the NTSB found the helicopter was flying nearly 100 feet higher than its instruments read.

The NTSB said in a letter to the Army last week that it was pleased with the Army's progress on seven of its eight safety recommendations. That contrasts with the FAA's failure to implement roughly a third of the recommendations aimed at the agency.

The Army said it has strengthened helicopter crew training, and has inspected and reconfigured 3,585 helicopters after discovering the crashed Black Hawk's ADS-B Out system, which broadcasts its location, hadn't been working for some time.

The military is also improving its monitoring of safety risks and working with the FAA to share information about close calls.

ALDS GAME 4 WHITE SOX VS. GUARDIANS (LATE)

White Sox fans arrive to see their team face the Guardians in Game 4 of their AL Division Series game on Thursday at Rate Field in Chicago. BRIAN CASSELLA/CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Anxiety par for course

Sox make long journey going from near anonymity to postseason spotlight

The narratives surrounding the Chicago White Sox are familiar to anyone who has paid any attention during the regular season.

Resilient. Grinders. Collegiate atmosphere. Cinderellas with eye black. Too young and dumb to know they're not supposed to succeed.

AL DIVISION SERIES

The team was blessed in absentia by Pope Leo XIV and routinely wanded by the wizard. They're

Paul Sullivan IN THE WAKE OF THE NEWS playing with house money, so anything more than a postseason appearance is gravy.

It's a delicious story of a team overcoming the odds, ignoring the experts and sublimating their egos for the collective. The Sox's pitching plans are a daily mystery, and

worries over Grant Taylor's right arm falling off have become nightly debates in South Side bars.

Can the Pope really pull strings with the guy upstairs and get the White Sox to a World Series?

Those narratives have led us to Game 4 of the American League Division Series on Thursday night, where the Sox could either clinch against the Cleveland Guardians and move on to St. Petersburg, Fla., to play the Tampa Bay Rays in the AL Championship Series — or send the series back to Cleveland for Game 5, putting their fans in widespread panic mode.

It goes without saying that no one believed they'd be here, including Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf.

The Sox were underdogs in spring training, and Reinsdorf admitted to Chicago Sports

Network's Brooke Fletcher on Wednesday that “probably 75 wins” was his guess, perhaps .500 if they were “lucky.” The Sox were overlooked by the national media during their second-half residency in first place in the AL Central, again at the start of their wildcard series against a .500 Houston Astros team and then again at the start of the ALDS.

Now they've been “discovered” by media members who ignored them all season and are proclaiming they're “legit.” The Athletic, which eliminated its Sox beat writer position a few years ago, had

Running game looms large

But can RB Monangai play with injury?

By Phil Thompson CHICAGO TRIBUNE

When it comes to the Bears and Packers, you can never take any statistical advantage as a given. But there's one phase of the game — at least on paper — the Bears seem to have the Packers over a barrel: the running game.

The Bears enter Sunday's Week 5 matchup at Lambeau Field boasting the No. 1 rushing offense at 196.3 yards per game. Conversely, the Packers run defense ranks 28th, allowing 139.3 yards per game.

However, Bears running backs coach Eric Studesville doesn't see a vulnerability at all.

"The (defensive) front is impressive," he said. "The backers are really impressive. I think (linebacker) Zaire Franklin's a

good addition for them. (Linebacker Edgerrin) Cooper going down (with a torn Achilles) is different, but (Isaiah) McDuffie's going to be in there. He's going to play his tail off.

"The safeties (Evan Williams and Xavier McKinney) and the nickel (Javon Bullard) are really good players, and so I think this day is going to be a great challenge for us. But if we go and do what we're supposed to do, we'll have a chance."

Bears running backs Kyle Monangai and D'Andre Swift rank seventh and eighth among the league's rushing leaders with 324 and 311 yards, respectively.

Monangai ranks sixth among qualifiers with 5.4 yards per carry.

According to Next Gen Stats, Monangai reaches the line of scrimmage in just 2.50 seconds on average, the fastest mark among 39 running backs with at least 30 carries.

"He's aggressive and decisive," Studesville said. "He's a vertical cut, but he's a tough, physical runner, runs behind his pads. He brings a physicality to our offense,

ILLINOIS MEN'S BASKETBALL

Illini take it easy with Mirković's recovery

By Colleen Kane CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Illinois men's basketball coach Brad Underwood said athletic trainer Justin Games has had his hands full over the last two months.

Games has been working with sophomore forward David Mirković as he comes back from August surgery on his left foot. The Illini want to be cautious with the recovery of a player expected to be the centerpiece of their bid to return to a second straight Final Four.

But Mirković's intensity challenges that sometimes.

"Not easy," Underwood said Thursday during Big Ten basketball media days in Rosemont. "Mirk's a competitor. He wants to do more. That's his mentality is to work and to push through things. We've had to temper that a lot.

"But he's worked awfully hard and he's done everything he's supposed to do, and we've just got to make sure that he keeps understanding we want this to be completely right when he comes back."

Underwood said Mirković had a doctor's appointment earlier this week and the 6-foot-9 Montenegrin is in “the natural progression that goes with a buildup” toward returning. Mirković has been doing work on the underwater and anti-gravity treadmills, but a foot injury requires regaining his conditioning.

So the Illini will continue to be intentional about his recovery, about 3½ weeks from their season opener and 5½ weeks from their marquee matchup at Duke.

"We want him to be pain-free," Underwood said. "We want him to be in great shape when he comes back. And the last thing we want him to do is to have any reoccurring issues."

Mirković is crucial to what the Illini want to do this season.

He joined Andrej Stojaković on Thursday as the faces of the Illini at media days. Keaton Wagler, whose sensational freshman season propelled Illinois to its first Final Four in 21 years, is preparing for the NBA season with the Los Angeles Clippers. Veterans Kylan Boswell and Ben Humrichous also are gone.

This group is led by Mirković and Stojaković, who were named

three reporters at Game 3. Only two local news stations — WGN-Ch. 9 and WLS-Ch. 7 — sent reporters to Cleveland. And no local radio reporters were in Houston or Cleveland. But now everyone is on board, and the White Sox clubhouse is getting more and more crowded.

Still, it's a soft and fuzzy story with a drizzle of nostalgia. The Sox even invoked images of Little League players enjoying some postgame ice cream with their buddies at the local Dairy Queen.

"Ice cream cones are good luck," catcher Kyle Teel said after news broke that teammate Sam Antonacci told WGN he was eating ice cream during Munetaka Murakami's moon-shot home run in Game 1 of the ALDS. The headline on a recent MLB.com story read: "Magic ice cream? White Sox using sweet treats as latest good luck charm."

Between the Pope, the wizard and magic ice cream, how could this team ever lose?

But then came the nightmare of Game 3, one of the Sox's worst performances in weeks. The 9-3 loss to the Guardians included a postseason-record 19 strikeouts by Sox hitters, 10 walks by a half-dozen Sox pitchers and two wasted Automated Ball-Strike System calls by Teel in the time it takes to Google “Who is Belmont Cameli?”

It was reminiscent of Game 3 of the 1983 ALCS against the Baltimore Orioles at old Comiskey Park, when the Sox came home after splitting in Baltimore with expectations through the roof. A couple of fans carried a bedsheet banner around the park before the first postseason home game since the 1959 World Series with a simple message: "Don't F---Up." (Spoiler alert: The Sox lost in four games.)

After most of the sellout crowd filed out Wednesday, one solitary Sox fan stood at his seat under the press box, shouting obscenities about the Guardians and the city of Cleveland. It wasn't clear whom he thought would hear him, but it didn't seem to matter.

Sometimes you just need to scream into the void.

No one would've blinked if the Sox had lost in similar fashion in any season from 2023-25. That was their default mode. But after watching the Sox win four straight games to start the post-season, hopes were higher than ever, and a poor performance led to some booing at the end of Game 3.

The good news was that the Sox were still in the driver's seat, with another home game Thursday and a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five series. Game 5 in Cleveland was a fallback plan in case disaster struck again.

The hope was that the Sox bullpen — which is basically everyone but Sean Burke — had enough bullets left for one more day. Well, metaphorically speaking, of course. Suffice it to say the mystery bullets that landed in Rate Field's bleachers in 2023 and wounded two women definitely aren't relevant to this feel-good story but are worth mentioning to remind us how much the Sox narrative has changed.

Expectations have risen, but baseball is baseball, and nothing is out of the realm of possibility.

"It's a team sport," Antonacci told CHSN's Fletcher after the Sox won in late June after blowing a lead. "If you're mad about giving up two runs in the ninth, take your ass to go play tennis or an individual sport."

That was the quote of the season from the Sox and a great observation on the fickleness of sports fans in general. Anxiety is part of the package, so just deal with it.

When I asked Antonacci about the quote in Cleveland recently, he said it was misconstrued by some fans, saying he was talking about a team sport is a different mentality.

"In tennis, all you have is yourself out there on the court," Antonacci said. "You don't have to worry about anyone messing it up for you. It's all your mistakes, all your errors and your success is solely because of you.

"When you sign up for baseball, you've got to rely on so many other people, and so that's what the team aspect is about. Some people took it out of context. I was saying you've got to succeed and fail with your team. And if you don't like failing, you can't blame it on others when you're playing tennis."

Antonacci's profile has grown immensely since the postseason began — and he has become a symbol of the White Sox's unexpected rise. Few fans knew who he was at SoxFest in January, but now he's the lineup's designated igniter and the human piñata who gets hit by pitches and slaps his helmet in triumph.

Antonacci has been called a “psycho” by teammates, who good-naturedly mocked him in the clubhouse after a bad route in left field led to a running catch in Game 2. If you can’t mock your friends, what are friends for?

This White Sox story has been so fun to watch that it's going to be hard to top. Imagine how it must feel to be one of the players on this long, strange trip from near anonymity to the postseason spotlight.

"It kind of reaches a threshold, because you work toward stuff your whole career, and after you get into this year, how can it get much better?" Antonacci said. "It's going to be hard to conquer this year in the upcoming years. But you can only live in the present. I'm taking it all in, and it's everything I could ask for."

It's hard to live in the present when you realize how far you've come to be here.

But for the White Sox to get to where they want to be, the present is the only thing that really matters.

WHITE SOX NOTES

Rate gets amped up

By LaMond Pope

CHICAGO TRIBUNE

The White Sox and Guardians met 16 times between the regular season and the first three games of the American League Division Series.

And they've been separated by one run — 69 for the Guardians and 68 for the Sox.

“It’s been incredible,” Sox manager Will Venable said of the matchups ahead of Thursday’s Game 4 at Rate Field. “I think we’re very different teams, but the way that these clubs are built as far as the character of each team, it’s very clear that you got a bunch of good guys on both sides that go out and play the game the right way. They’re very talented players. They play very hard.

"It's been fun to watch. It's tough and obviously they're very competitive, but we're very competitive, and it's been a great battle. But it has been fun to watch, and it's cool that it's coming down to this series here where we have an opportunity to continue that battle.

“Someone’s going to leave here having won that battle, but you look at the course of this year and really the season of the battle between us, there’s some cool stuff that really has been fun to watch.”

The Sox held a 2-1 edge heading into Thursday's Game 4 of the best-of-five ALDS.

AMPED UP

Venable saw Game 3 as a “very good tutorial” for Game 4.

"It's really just the environment," Venable said. "We talked about it (Wednesday), that we knew this was going to be a juiced-up environment, and I thought it impacted us. I thought you saw us chase a lot more.

"I think it was one of our highest chase rates of the year. We were a little sped up (Wednesday), so we get to hit the reset button on understanding the environment a little bit better — (Guardians starter Parker) Messick, a guy we just faced, we know him well. So at this point, there's not going to be any secrets, especially as far as the environment goes, having experienced it (Wednesday)."

The Sox struck out 19 times in Game 3 — the most in a nine-inning postseason game in MLB history.

“Obviously you play in front of a crowd like that, you get amped up and maybe swing at pitches you wouldn't normally swing at,” Sox outfielder Tristan Peters said. “I also think, too, the offense (Wednesday), we ran into a few balls, but they also found gloves. That was a tough side of it too. I think we put together some pretty good at-bats.

“But yeah, maybe having a little more patience is going to help.”

FAMILIAR FOE

Thursday marked the sixth time the Sox faced Messick. That includes Game 1 at Progressive Field, when the left-hander allowed two runs on four hits in 4 $\frac{1}{3}$ innings.

Messick struck out six and walked two in the 3-0 loss to the Sox on Saturday.

“We’ve seen him a lot,” Peters said. “I think we know how he’s going to pitch us. Maybe he changes it up a little bit, but we know what he’s got. I’m very confident in our guys that we’ll hit him well.”

ON THE MOUND

Hagen Smith assumed he would be available after pitching two-thirds of an inning Wednesday.

"I feel good," the lefty said after the game.

The Sox turned to Smith to start Game 4 as the opener. Options for bulk included Erick Fedde and Anthony Kay. Smith allowed one run on one hit with two walks Wednesday, including a three-run triple to Jo Adell in the third inning.

“I thought Hagen was good,” Venable said. “The walk there obviously wasn’t great, and we talked about how free passes were going to impact this series. Got away with it the first couple games. Obviously didn’t (Wednesday, walking 10 as a team). The Adell bat, I thought Adell did a good job of covering the heater going the other way.

"I thought Hagen looked good. I thought the stuff looked good. Just maybe a little bit of execution there that put him in a little bit of a tough spot. He's our guy. We've leaned on him the entire postseason. Excited he's taking the ball to give us a start."

Yankees' title drought reaches 17 years

By Stephen Whyno

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — Max Fried gave up two home runs, the New York Yankees had one taken off the board by fan interference and then their season ended Thursday night with a whimper.

After Anthony Volpe's would-be tying home run in the bottom of the sixth inning turned into a double after video review, the Yankees did not get a runner past second base. When leadoff hitter Trent Grisham struck out to end the ninth, it capped a 4-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 3 of the AL Division Series and a series sweep that extended the Yankees' championship drought to 17 years.

“Disappointment,” said Fried, the Game 3 starter. “It’s not the way that we wanted it to end, not up to what we were expecting.”

After sweeping the Boston Red Sox in an AL wild-card series, the Yankees never led against the Rays and have not advanced past a higher-seeded team in the postseason since 2020.

Asked to explain why the past two seasons ended without being able to get over the hump, likely AL Cy Young winner Cam Schlittler called it a great question and responded, “I don’t really have an answer.”

Without injured slugger Aaron Judge, the Yankees were one-hit and shut out in the opener, when catcher Austin Wells' baserunning blunder loomed large. Game 2 included four errors to get pushed to the brink of elimination.

The Yankees didn't go quietly — at least initially. When Fried gave up a run apiece in the third and fourth innings, the bats responded each time to tie the score.

Victor Mesa Jr. crushed Fried's 80th and final pitch for a go-ahead two-run home run that was far from a short-porch blast like Ryan Vilade's earlier.

“It’s just as simple as I threw a bad pitch,” Fried said. “I left it up and the guy hit a home run, which was two runs and it put it out of reach. ... We played a really sound game and did enough win, and unfortunately I didn’t do enough to be able to hold up my end of the bargain.”

It looked like the Yankees would get it right back in a redemption moment for Volpe, but a Jeffrey Maier-esque moment came back to haunt the home team 30 years later.

Volpe looked to have a home run to left field, and umpires called it a home run on the field. Video review determined the fan did interfere, the play was scored an RBI double for Volpe but the run that did not turned out to be the difference.

With the air sucked out of Yankee Stadium, Spencer Jones — who singled and doubled in his first two plate appearances — struck out swinging to end the threat. The eighth started with Paul Goldschmidt reaching on a throwing error and finished with fellow pinch-hitter Giancarlo Stanton striking out in just his second at-bat of the postseason.

“They pitched well against us, and we had no answers for it,” Jones said.

Stanton got chances to swing the bat after strained calf muscles in each of his legs sidelined him since April 24. Judge was not afforded the same opportunity, left off the rosters for the wild-card series and ALDS because of his calf injury.

"It definitely hurts," Judge said, unwilling to speculate whether he thought he would have been able to alter the result. "You want to be out there. You do all the rehab, all the work, come in here early, stay late — any time you're banged up, you try to get out there as soon as you can. It definitely hurts not getting a chance to be out there and battling."

The Yankees hit .130 in the series and were outscored 10-5.

Patience not easy for Buzelis

Bulls forward shows early signs of growth

By Julia Poe

CHICAGO TRIBUNE

If Matas Buzelis is going to get anywhere, he first needs to get to the rim.

The path from the 3-point arc to the restricted area is beginning to shrink for Buzelis. Those 23 feet are easier to navigate, requiring fewer dribbles, fewer steps. Over the last two years, Buzelis learned that he needs less space than he thought, that sometimes a foot or two of breathing room is enough to tuck himself into.

That growth was visible from the opening seconds of Wednesday's preseason opener against the Phoenix Suns at the United Center.

Buzelis moved toward the rim with a greater finality. His assertiveness coming down off a screen or an off-ball cut provided the half-second advantage necessary to beat the high-pressing Suns defense. And when the physical contest came from his defender, Buzelis absorbed the contact, staying a little steadier in the air as he tried to finish.

Buzelis scored 12 points in the paint, and his only other points were a pair of free throws also earned while attacking the rim. He also missed all six of his shots behind the arc, the only stark negative from his outing.

It was only the preseason. No reason to get too high on a few exhibition plays. Still, the first showing from Buzelis was enough to raise a few “what if” questions that should follow the third-year forward the rest of the season.

As a rebuilding team, the Bulls have a lot of needs. They need to set the table for Caleb Wilson's career. They need to establish a style of play under first-year coach Tiago Splitter.

They need to figure out if Josh Giddey is a fit for the team's future.

But perhaps more than anything else this season, the Bulls need Buzelis to have his breakout moment.

Buzelis might be the most variable factor on the Bulls roster, the player with the greatest range of potential change. His growth will establish how much firepower the Bulls have in their young core.

Buzelis is clearly a good NBA player, a solid shooter with plus athleticism and a decent defensive baseline. For a No. 11 pick, his skill set and consistency already should be considered a talent-identification win for the Bulls.

But if he takes the right leap, Buzelis could set the Bulls apart — and fill out the foundation of the competitive roster this front office is trying to build.

For Buzelis, that starts and ends with the physicality and discernment he can bring to the court as an off-ball scorer. At 21 (he turns 22 on Tuesday), he still is hoping to add muscle and weight. But for now, he'll mostly play the three to make space for Wilson as a slightly larger four, a setup that allows Buzelis to utilize his length as a jumbo wing.

Buzelis spent the summer drilling on how to finish through contact. As a younger player, he often allowed himself to get jammed in the middle of the court, settling for jump shots rather than trusting his dribble and taking the extra step to access a closer shot. This season he wants to touch the rim as often as he can.

"The main thing for me was gaining strength and sharpening all of my tools," Buzelis said. "I can do a lot on the floor. I'm playing more physical. Even going through the workouts with more physicality is something we've been focusing on, and it translates."

Buzelis knows this will take time. That's probably the hardest part. He came into his rookie season with big goals. Some were achieved, most weren't. His second season was an even more extreme version of that disappointment.

More than anything, Buzelis wants to win. The Bulls might get back to that someday soon, but it likely won't be this season. He's not OK with that. He knows if he ever settles into accepting losses, he'll never be the same player.

He hates losing. He'll have to do it a lot this season. And Buzelis knows the only way to weather that frustrating dynamic is to pour himself into his learning process.

"I'm practicing patience," he said. "Everything can't come to you at once. It was hard for me. I speak to a lot of smart, intelligent people, and they tell me everything comes with time.

"I know that this team is capable of a lot of things and I know we'll get to where we want to get to. It's a process, but all of us are working extremely hard to try to achieve our goals."

BULLS 124, SUNS 117 (EXH.) LATE WEDNESDAY Rookie Wilson has up-and-down game

of focusing on their own offensive scheme and style of play.

By Julia Poe

CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Not every night can make the highlight reel.

Chicago Bulls rookie Caleb Wilson played his first minutes at the United Center on Wednesday, starting the preseason opener against the Phoenix Suns. After building plenty of hype with a standout summer league performance, Wilson never quite found his footing in the Bulls' 124-117 win.

In one of the first lessons of his career, Wilson learned the value of veteran experience in the NBA. He spent his night attempting to escape the pestering reach of Suns forward Dillon Brooks, who followed him with a dogged persistence across every inch of the half-court. Brooks swatted the ball out of Wilson's hands and rushed him into poor shots, at one point speeding him into an air-balled jumper.

Wilson reveled in the matchup, though, even when Brooks was getting the better of him. The veteran held off any trash talk to start the game, but Wilson started a little chatter of his own, teasing Brooks about an altercation Monday with Detroit Pistons forward John Collins.

"It was fun, honestly," Wilson said. "I made some mistakes but I expected to make them. But that was fun, I ain't gonna lie. For that to be my first NBA opponent, it was cool.

"I learned a lot, learned how to be more active and ready off the ball. ... You can learn a lot from that and I'll watch the film and get better."

Wilson is too talented not to make an impact on a game. He knocked down a smooth midrange jumper and had a couple of clean dunks, one in transition. But he also missed his first three 3-point attempts and picked up his fifth foul with almost eight minutes left in the third quarter, leading coach Tiago Splitter to sit him for the rest of the quarter.

Splitter put Wilson back in for the fourth quarter, but the rookie's inconsistent play never evened out. He knocked down another turnaround midrange shot, only to air-ball a 3-pointer, showing uncertainty about how to get to the rim through traffic. He traveled while attempting a turnaround move and balked when the defense showed him hands on his way to the rim.

Wilson finished with 15 points, three rebounds and two assists, managing to play 10 minutes of the fourth quarter on five fouls. He gave his performance a B – overall positive but plenty of room to grow.

Here are five other takeaways from the win.

SIZE ADJUSTMENTS

With Nic Claxton (hamstring) and Zach Collins (quadriceps) injured, Jalen Smith started at center. Backup point guard Tre Jones also missed the game with a left hip injury. Splitter said Jones is day to day and hopefully will be available for the Oct. 21 season opener.

The Suns presented a relatively minimal size challenge outside of second-year center Khaman Maluach. The Bulls gave an extended run to undrafted rookie Tobe Awaka, who showcased his motor on the boards, grabbing 11 rebounds while adding 14 points. Awaka is on a two-way contract but has earned praise from teammates and coaches for his relentless approach to training camp and knack for snagging rebounds.

Notably, forward Patrick Williams didn't make it onto the court until midway through the third quarter, even with all of the absences. Williams appears to be behind other forwards such as Awaka, Noa Essengue and Leonard Miller in Splitter's system.

WHO'S ON POINT?

Splitter didn't present a full scouting report to the team based on the Suns' first preseason game, a fairly common practice in exhibitions. That meant the Bulls entered Wednesday's game with the goal

Despite that inward focus, the Bulls struggled to initiate their offense because of one clear deficiency: competent ballhandling.

The wing-heavy Bulls have a bevy of forwards and jumbo guards who play best off the ball. This is the future of the NBA – but on a highly skilled yet underdeveloped roster, it also creates concerns when a play must be initiated. Even point guard Josh Giddey can struggle to create off the dribble, which was apparent in his 23-minute stint Wednesday.

Matas Buzelis showed improved urgency and efficiency in putting his head down to get to the rim, scoring 10 of his 14 points inside the restricted area. This is a primary focus for Buzelis, who spent the summer working on his downhill action. But without Giddey or Buzelis on the court, the Bulls didn't always have an efficient spark on offense.

BOUNCING BACK

BOCKING BACK Rookie Dailyn Swain suffered the most for this lack of on-ball proficiency. Swain already struggled to handle the ball during summer league, when Splitter put him through an early trial by asking him to run the point for a young team.

Those weaknesses emerged again Wednesday. Swain committed turnovers on back-to-back plays — losing his handle to fumble the ball out of bounds, then earning a 10-second violation on the next play as he attempted to carve a lane to get across the court — before Isaac Okoro took the ball over.

After the frustrating start, however, Swain began to relax. Splitter told him to stop worrying about plays in the backcourt, giving the rookie the green light to blow past defenders down the court if he felt under pressure. The Bulls also sent ball screens to help any ballhandler, a mechanism that will be crucial for freeing up space.

“(I’m) not beating myself up about it, so much spotlight on my summer league performance and then coming out there and it not going how I imagined in that first stint,” Swain said. “I’m just going out and watching what I need to watch on film and taking that advice and then fixing it.

“Once I fixed it, I felt good. I felt more comfortable every time I got back in the game.”

A DOWN DEFENSE

Wednesday's victory confirmed almost every concern about the Bulls defense. The Suns racked up 40 points in the first quarter. Scoring leveled out as the game went on

— the Suns didn't crack 30 points in a quarter again — but the opening 12 minutes showed plenty of cracks the Bulls need to patch up.

It's not just a size issue. Yes, the Bulls currently lack a consistent rim protector without Claxton or Collins. But more importantly, this roster doesn't have a true point defender, even at full health. That was clear as the Bulls bled from the point of attack, allowing blow-by drives and suffering on switches as a result.

RULES ARE CHANGING

Early in the second quarter, Wilson rumbled into the lane and attempted to use his off arm to create a few inches of space before laying the ball across the rim. The movement initiated a small amount of contact, which Wilson absorbed readily as he fought toward the basket. But instead of buying himself a bucket, he drew a whistle for a charge.

The foul call was part of a larger shift by the NBA, which has changed its officiating approach toward the use of the off arm this season. Players will be penalized for attempting to push off or otherwise use their off arm to create space.

This practice had become prolific in the NBA, earning criticism that ballhandlers had gained undue leeway to initiate contact that defenders couldn't reasonably counter without being called for a foul.

ON THE BLACKHAWKS

Hawks need to develop Korchinski on the ice

By Kalen Lumpkins CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Kevin Korchinski is in a peculiar position to start the 2026-27 season.

The Chicago Blackhawks defen-seman was a restricted free agent for much of the offseason. As other RFAs such as Connor Bedard and Drew Commesso agreed to new contracts, questions arose about whether Korchinski, 22, would remain in the Hawks system.

The speculation ended when he signed a two-year, \$2.65 million contract Aug. 29. He told reporters he wasn't too worried about getting a deal done.

"It was out of my control, so I didn't really pay too much attention to it," Korchinski said Sept. 18. "You have friends and guys asking when you're going to sign, but I just approached the offseason (as a) chance to get better. Came here for a month and worked with a lot of different coaches and strength coaches, and I think it was beneficial. It was a good summer."

General manager Kyle Davidson was laid-back about the timing of contracts for Korchinski and fellow defenseman Ethan Del Mastro, who signed a two-year, \$1.9 million deal Sept. 16.

"We had some other business to handle ahead of that, so I wouldn't necessarily read too much into timing-wise," Davidson said Sept. 17. "It's their job to continue to grow, continue to get experience and push their way into playing time when it becomes available or when it's necessitated."

Korchinski no longer is exempt from waivers, so the Hawks needed to keep him on the roster to avoid another team poten-

tially claiming him. Even with the offseason additions of defensemen Bowen Byram and Ian Cole, the new contract seemed to show that the Hawks still had bigger plans for the No. 7 pick in the 2022 draft.

Or so we thought.

Korchinski got some preseason time against the Minnesota Wild and St. Louis Blues, but that was with mostly AHL-heavy line-ups. That's when we should've seen him gain reps, but that didn't happen in the shortened training camp.

The Hawks finalized their opening roster Sept. 26 with 13 forwards, eight defensemen and two goaltenders. Eight blue-liners — including Korchinski and Del Mastro — made sense at first, as coach Jeff Blashill ran an 11-forward, seven-defenseman lineup a few times last season.

But when asked Sept. 28 before the trip to Las Vegas for the season opener if he would use such line-ups again or rotate his defense-men, Blashill said: "I wouldn't say we'll work a rotation. We've got to find ways to get some wins here. If we think there's a clear delineation, we'll play those six.... We'll certainly try to get the other two in when we can, but it's not going to be a rotation."

Korchinski and Del Mastro made their season debuts Saturday in Buffalo while Byram was out for the birth of his twin daughters. The defensive pair finished with a minus-2 rating, and Korchinski's 11 minutes, 21 seconds of ice time was the lowest of the Hawks defensemen.

Blashill declined to comment on Korchinski's performance postgame, saying: "They're not the same. I thought (Del Mastro) had a

good game."

And that's all Korchinski has been able to show on the ice this season. There's no sign he'll be joining the lineup, barring an injury or off-ice predicament for the current top six defensemen.

So what's the plan for Korchinski?

It's obvious Blashill doesn't trust the young defenseman to join the top six yet. That was evident last season when Del Mastro was recalled from Rockford weeks before Korchinski in the wake of injuries to Artyom Levshunov and Matt Grzelcyk.

In the meantime he's working toward earning that nod.

“That starts in practice, being attentive (to) all these drills and being good in the practice,” Korchinski told the Tribune on Wednesday. “To build trust, you’ve got to earn it. It’s not given (and) it’s on me to do.”

Korchinski struggled as a 19-year-old rookie in 2023-24, totaling 15 points (five goals, 10 assists) with a minus-39 rating in 76 games. He has played in only 30 NHL games since, while putting up 53 points (five goals, 48 assists) with a minus-38 rating in 109 games for the IceHogs the last two seasons.

Both Blashill and Davidson have preached that the Hawks need to develop their young talent into NHL-ready players for the foreseeable future. But how can they do that if a young player doesn't see the ice?

Mistakes will happen with the youngest team in the league. Blashill has noted this, most recently on Wednesday about 21-year-old forward Nick Lardis' slow start.

"The game is going to happen, mistakes are going to happen, and I'm OK with that as long as (Lardis) keeps brushing it off and attacking the game," Blashill said. "He's got to keep playing through it (and) at some point, if you keep doing the right things, things will start to trend in your favor."

Korchinski hasn't gotten that gracious nod, at least during Blashill's tenure. For now, he's a backup option that the Hawks don't want another team to have.

For Korchinski's part, he's taking advantage of his current position the best way he can — learning from observing.

“Be a student in the game, be attentive, learn as much as you can and be prepared when your name is called,” he said.

Byram, 25, and Cole, 37, are great figures to learn from. Their experiences, despite being in different points of their careers, can provide Korchinski with new ideas for his game.

"Just being a sponge off them, stack some little things, like what makes them successful, things that are easy to implement," Korchinski said. "Those are things that can go a long way, where you're not reinventing the wheel but you can add a little thing."

Cole is on a one year-deal, so that could be a timeline as to when the Hawks expect Korchinski to be ready. If that's what it is, a full season of healthy scratches isn't going to do much for him.

Regardless, Korchinski feels ready for whenever the bell rings.

“For me, it’s making sure I’m ready whenever my name’s called,” he said. “Being ready, working extra at practice, before practice, doing (the) little things, taking care of my body and being ready to go.”

ILLINI

from Page C1

to the 11-player preseason All-Big Ten team. The announcements in the spring of their returns — along with those of twin centers Tomislav and Zvonimir Ivišić and wing Jake Davis — was big offseason news.

It's a long way from where Mirković was a year ago, still new to the United States and college basketball.

“I came here to the other side of the world with something to prove, and that was my goal — to come here to prove something and to win as much as possible,” Mirković said. “But I would say now it’s different. Everyone knows who I am. Coaches expect a lot for me. They give me a lot of freedom and they expect us to win more now.”

Mirković got a taste of the spotlight as a freshman, when he averaged 13.3 points, eight rebounds and 2.6 assists. He had nine double-doubles, and his 297 rebounds set an Illinois freshman record, breaking the mark set by Kofi Cockburn.

His physical, versatile play made an impression on the court. And his big personality, captured in interviews and team videos, drew attention off it during the Illini's NCAA Tournament run.

"I'm excited for the world to get to know him," Underwood said. "We get to deal with him every day and he's fun, and there's days he's a challenge because of his competitive spirit. But he is a joy to be around, just simply because the young man loves life."

If Mirković's recovery stays on course and he picks up where he left off last season, he could garner even more attention for an Illini team that likely will enter the season ranked in the top five.

But Mirković said he doesn't feel the outside pressure that comes with that attention.

"The biggest pressure for us is to keep showing up, being an everyday guy and just being consistent as much as possible," he said. "Listen to coaches and teammates and work. And I think we are in a good way."

Mirković said the only good thing about his injury, which he suffered in a team workout, was the timing of it. He was able to get in a good offseason of work before sitting out. That included finding what he called “the perfect weight for my body.”

“Everything my brain imagined, I could do that, and my body followed on the court,” he said.

Underwood said Mirković improved his ballhandling — “tremendously with his left hand”

— and called him “a matchup nightmare.” He expects to play Mirković at every position this year and noted that versatility allows the Illini to hunt favorable matchups for him.

“It’ll be our job to exploit that, and I can literally see him playing all five spots for us,” Underwood said. “We can play smaller. We can have a jumbo package with him as a point guard. So I like the versatility, and we’re going to base a lot of what we do around his ability to force a mismatch.”

Stojaković also saw an even better Mirković this summer.

"He carried himself a lot more maturely, I would say, with the approach to the game, his mindset coming into practice every day," Stojaković said. "With the level of his play, a lot of the times when we were on opposite teams, not necessarily vocally but the way he was playing, he demanded of the others to match his intensity.”

Mirković said the last couple of months have given him “a different perspective” of the game from the sideline, and he thinks he got better even without working out on the court.

He also benefited from watching another player's film.

Underwood suggested this offseason that Mirković watch highlights of Larry Bird, who retired before Mirković was born. Mirković knew Bird was an all-time great but said, "I didn't know he was that good with being not athletic." He studied how to pass and score against taller and faster opponents.

"I saw a lot of similarities in their game, the way they elevated other players," Underwood said. "Larry always made teammates better. And Mirk has that ability.... I thought if he could pick something up there that maybe adds to his game or gives him a little confidence, then so be it."

Tinley Park senior QB aims to finish strong

Ludke: ‘I didn’t want to quit,’ returns from 2 years of injuries

By Patrick Z. McGavin FOR THE DAILY SOUTHTOWN

Senior quarterback Randy Ludke wants to finish what he has started for Tinley Park.

Each of his first two years orchestrating the offense for the Titans has ended with an injury for Ludke, who worked hard at coming back not only physically but mentally from those setbacks.

"I think what I learned both times is that injuries are not going to take me out," he said. "What I learned the most about being away is just how important it is to me. I wanted to come back.

"I didn't want to quit. I wanted to come back for my senior year."

That comeback story continued Friday night for Ludke. He accounted for 172 yards, ran for two touchdowns and threw a TD pass in a 26-21 South Suburban Blue win over T.F. South in Lansing.

Sophomore running back Grayson Maloney added 124 yards on the ground and also scored the game-winning TD with four seconds left for Tinley Park (4-3, 2-2).

Ludke has scored 19 TDs this season, with nine coming through the air.

His dual-threat abilities have opened up the offensive possibilities, but his mere presence is just as important.

His emotional resilience has sparked the Titans, according to senior guard Brendan Draves.

"I remember him getting hurt sophomore year," Draves said. "That repeated itself last year, and he came back both times stronger than ever. It shows a lot about who he is as a person.

"He has a great work ethic and he's great to be around. An offensive line always wants to love their quarterback, and he's definitely somebody you always want to protect."

Senior center Jude McCleish pointed out that Ludke has great command of the entire offense.

"I think one of his best qualities is the feedback he gives to the line, either about snaps or where the leakage is coming in," McCleish said. "In the huddle, he always makes sure we're lined up and in our spots.

“He’s just a hardworking guy. Last year he got injured against Lemont. He got up, kept working and now he’s doing really great this season.”

On Friday night, Ludke completed 9 of 14 passes for 101 yards and added 71 yards on 11 carries. Like a championship boxer, he brings a personality, drive and temperament to the game.

"I think I'm very tough, aggressive and I'm never going to shy from contact," he said. "We run a spread offense, one back and four receivers, and I have the freedom to do whatever I want — sit in the pocket, run around and spread the field with all of our different formations."

The Titans have dramatically improved their win total from last season when they finished 1-8. Having Ludke back behind center for his senior year has made a big difference.

The 6-foot-1,180-pound Ludke is somewhat chastened by his injury history. He remains aggressive on the field but is more calculated and instinctual now about taking hits.

"I feel like I could take a hit in any situation, but I'm not arrogant about it," he said. "I know when to protect myself and when it is the right time to lower my shoulder."

He brings the same moxie and competitive edge to basketball. Football is the family tradition, with his father and grandfather having played the sport. Four uncles on his mother's side also played.

"My uncles played at Bremen and my dad played at Oak Forest, all district schools," he said. "So it's really cool every different school I go to, I see family names."

Now, he hopes to write a different ending to his story.

"It's funny I wasn't really that serious about football when I was younger," he said. "Just having fun in elementary and middle school. Now, I love to be in as much control as possible.

"I'm out there, running the offense, and it's the most control you can have."

Bulls Prep nets success on gridiron, too

Henderson tries to ‘make a name’ for school, Tate gives DI prospect hope for more

By Mike McGraw DAILY HERALD

Bulls Prep running back Eric Henderson is trying to bring some gridiron lore to Chicago's West Side, which has long been associated with basketball.

From Mark Aguirre and Isiah Thomas going first and second in the 1981 NBA draft to the renowned “Hoop Dreams” documentary and six NBA championships at the United Center in the 1990s, the West Side was the basketball capital of the world for a time.

Henderson, who attended Johnson Prep as a freshman, said he and some of his neighborhood friends decided to team up at Bulls Prep to change that.

"We believed in each other as a brotherhood," Henderson said. "We knew we could go places as a team, together as one. So we made a decision to move as one and come to Bulls."

There hasn't been a lot of team success for West Side football in recent years, maybe not since Austin beat Fenwick for the Prep Bowl title in 1958.

But Henderson, a junior who has rushed for about 900 yards for Bulls Prep (3-4) this season, has an ideal role model: Tennessee Titans wide receiver Carnell Tate, who was the No. 4 pick in the 2026 NFL draft.

Before two years at Marist, two years at IMG Academy in Florida and three years at Ohio State, Tate grew up in the Garfield Park

neighborhood.

In fact, Tate got his start playing youth football for Bulls Prep coach Michael Willis. Thanks to that relationship, Tate visited with Bulls players in July and talked about his journey from the West Side to the NFL.

“They asked a lot of great questions, and he was real with them,” Willis said. “He told them what they’ve got to do.”

Like Tate, Henderson began playing youth football in Columbus Park for the Chicago Chargers. So they have plenty in common.

Henderson, who has an offer from Western Kentucky and has gotten attention from Ivy League teams, was inspired by Tate.

“I took from that it’s not impossible for me to make it,” Henderson said. “It is going to be hard. I do have to deal with adversity, but I have to face it. I got motivation from (Tate) because seeing him come from Chicago, where I stay at, it’s like, if he could do it, I know I can too.”

Henderson said both of his parents played basketball when they were younger. He watched NFL games on television when he was a kid and decided to try something different.

"I was living with my grandma and my cousins," he said. "They would turn on football because they were addicted to it, and fell in love with it since then. My first favorite player was probably Todd Gurley."

The 5-foot-10, 165-pound Henderson, who rushed for 1,409 yards as a sophomore last season, isn't yet a power runner like Gurley. But Henderson has great acceleration and is tough to bring down once he breaks into the open field.

Last week Henderson rushed for 234 yards and two touchdowns in a Public

League Red Shield game against Young, and he had multiple other TD runs called back because of penalties. That game also featured a soggy, gut-punch ending for the Bulls.

Playing in the rain at Lane Stadium, Bulls Prep held a 12-7 lead late in the fourth quarter, and the defense pushed Young backward on fourth-and-29. The Bulls needed two kneel-downs to end the game, but the wet ball slipped out of the quarterback's hands and the Dolphins' Cameron Brown picked it up and ran 98 yards for the winning score.

Henderson gave chase but couldn't make the tackle.

"I'm not going to lie, I'm hurt (by the loss), but it's only motivation for Kenwood (on Saturday)," Henderson said. "That's our senior night. We have to play for our brothers, and that loss, even though we weren't supposed to lose, it's just fuel."

As the lone charter school playing at the highest level of Public League football, Bulls Prep has some disadvantages, such as no true practice field. An unlined park next to the school, which also includes a splash pad and a playground, has to suffice.

Bulls Prep has endured three one-score losses this season, but Willis' goal is to build the program into a West Side football power, which would be unprecedented in modern times.

“That’s most definitely what we are trying to be,” Henderson said. “We are trying to make a name for Bulls, get our name out there for the school and get our name out there for ourselves.”

The Chicago Bulls and Chicago Blackhawks haven't won anything in a while. Maybe a West Side football team can pick up the slack.

Power 4 offers don't distract Kenwood WR

By Patrick Z. McGavin FOR THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Kenwood senior wide receiver Lawrence Carr has a reserved personality that rarely calls attention to him. Carr saves the brash and bold for the football field, and everything quiet about him quickly disappears.

"I'm a little shy when I first meet people," he said. "It gets better when we get to talking. My mentality changes when I'm out there playing. I know that nobody can guard me."

Carr, who returned a kickoff 81 yards for a touchdown during Kenwood's 48-0 Public League Red Shield victory over Lincoln Park on Saturday at Lane Stadium, has 11 TDs this season, mostly on pass plays.

Carr has 27 catches for 738 yards and nine TDs for the Broncos (5-2, 4-0), who have won five straight, and he's averaging 27.3 yards per catch.

“We have a great one with him,” junior quarterback Malachi Henigan said. “He brings so much to our offense with his versatility, speed, hands and his leadership.”

"He's very hardworking and humble, and he always comes early or stays after practice so that we could throw the ball around and really get that chemistry down."

Carr shares a different connection with Kenwood coach Chris Goffer, a former player and assistant at Mount Carmel. Carr began his career at Mount Carmel as a freshman receiver. He was dressed and on the sideline when the Caravan beat Downers Grove North 35-10 in the 2023 Class 7A state championship game.

Carr arrived at Kenwood at the beginning of his sophomore year.

"He was young when I got him," Goffer said. "There were some teaching and learning curves there. He is always going to give you $100\%$ effort. He's great at catching the ball and has some of the strongest hands I've ever seen on a receiver."

The 5-foot-11, 170-pound Carr combines solid size with speed, quickness and great separation skills. But understatement defines him.

Carr has scholarship offers from nearly 30 Division I teams, including Miami and Wisconsin, but he hasn't turned his recruiting process into a production.

"I probably won't decide until after the season is over," he said. "It's a privilege and honor to get the attention, but I don't really talk about it. I just stay humble. When people congratulate me, I just say, 'Thank you.'"

Carr has a way of revealing himself late. Kenwood senior running back Jamarius Andrus marvels at one particularly subtle part of Carr's game.

"I just love watching his late hands," Andrus said. "He's never early. It's as if you don't even see him catching the ball because his hands are late.

“Sometimes we have a hard time on a drive, and then you see Lawrence catching a deep ball. It’s very reassuring playing with him.”

Carr once played basketball and baseball as well, but football commands his full attention. The sport reaches back into his earliest memories. He recalls running around with a football as early as age 3. He said his father, Corey Gooch, was his earliest advocate.

"I didn't really know anything about football," he said. "At first I didn't really like it, but my dad kept pushing me and wanting me to play for real.

"I was probably 5 or something when I scored my first touchdown. I started working with my dad every day, and I've loved the game ever since."

Some of Carr's favorite childhood memories, including camping trips with his grandfather and building small cars, have nothing to do with football.

"We used to do these little races when I was a kid," he said. "I still have those cars.

“Even though I’m quiet, I’ve always been competitive and ambitious, especially as I got deeper into football. I’ve always had this great excitement for the game.”

Packers tight end Tucker Kraft tries to shake a tackle from Buccaneers cornerback Keionte Scott on Sunday in Tampa, Fla. JASON BEHNKEN/AP

Packers TE Kraft still shaking off rust

By Steve Megargee ASSOCIATED PRESS

GREEN BAY — Tucker Kraft said this summer he believed he was playing as well as any tight end in the NFL before tearing his anterior cruciate ligament last season.

Kraft scored his first touch-down of the season Sunday in the Green Bay Packers' 17-14 road victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but he also couldn't hang on to a pass in the end zone to continue his uncharacteristic struggles with drops. Kraft is averaging 9.9 yards per catch, well below his career average of 13.7 heading into the season.

Now that he's healthy again, Kraft has been unable to pick up right where he left off.

"I think I'm just trying to do too much," Kraft said Wednesday. "Offensively we might get into a lull, and I think I can make the game-saving play right there. I'm taking my eyes off the ball. Can't do anything without the ball, so I'm just going to slow down and play my role. Catch the football."

Kraft has caught 15 passes for 148 yards with one touchdown through four games heading into Sunday's matchup with the Chicago Bears (3-1).

Last season he had 32 receptions for 489 yards and six touchdowns in eight games before tearing the ACL in his right knee in a Nov. 2 loss to the Carolina Panthers.

Packers coach Matt LaFleur says it's a matter of shaking off the rust.

"I think a lot of guys that come off major injuries, it takes a period of time," LaFleur said. "And I know we want instant gratification, and the expectation is whatever you saw that that's what it's going to be. But I think for many of these guys, not just us, but around the league, guys that come off major injuries ... they've got to get back to playing."

Kraft worked his way back in time to be ready for the start of the season. He signed a four-year, \$75 million contract extension with a maximum value of \$92 million the day before the Packers (2-2) opened their season with a 39-22 road loss against the Minnesota Vikings.

But he's still working his way back to the form he showed in the first half of last season.

While Kraft acknowledges his numbers don't necessarily reflect it, the 2023 third-round pick from South Dakota State believes the game is slowing down for him. He says he's “feeling more savvy” in his coverage recognition.

“Statistically it might not look like I’m playing better,” Kraft said. “Some would even say that I might’ve lost my stinger. My brothers were telling me that. They said, ‘You look like you kind of lost your edge out there.’ They said it to me last week. I tried to go out in Tampa and be a meanie, but it was too damn hot. I couldn’t breathe out there.

“This week (I'll) try to get back to my roots, the kind of (stuff) I was on my first and second year when I was playing to the echo of the whistle and being hard on the defense.”

Kraft still is making an impact.

He set up the Packers' first touchdown Sunday by taking a direct snap on fourth-and-1 from the 9 and delivering a

3-yard run, with quarterback Jordan Love coming up from behind to push him forward.

"I was a quarterback in high school for two years, did a little under center," Kraft said. "I got a lot of experience in college running that play because it's a special situation and you have to practice it a lot in college, and we ran it like eight times when I was at South Dakota State."

That's one way Kraft has added to his game while he attempts to improve his production.

After all, he doesn't merely want to get back to playing the way he did last season. He wants to be even better.

BEARS from Page C1

"The goal is always to ascend," Kraft said. "If you're not getting better, you're getting worse. So my goal is to walk in this building every day with the right mindset. See the film, see our run-pass pictures and really just apply it with all the reps that I've had throughout my time here since 2023. I'm just trying to continue to evolve, get some more of those breakout on-the-field plays. That all starts with catching the ball."

and that gives us juice."

On a 30-carry, 146-yard day against the New York Jets, Monangai had 106 yards after contact — the fifth-highest mark in a game this season, behind two runs apiece from the Atlanta Falcons' Bijan Robinson and Kansas City Chiefs' Kenneth Walker — and three runs of at least 10 yards.

After Swift fumbled in the third quarter, Monangai finished with 19 carries for 96 yards, including a 26-yarder, and a touchdown.

“Happy for him,” Swift said Thursday. “He finished the game how he’s supposed to. Had a hell of a game.”

WEEK 18 TBD

The hiccup for Week 5 is that Monangai missed a second consecutive day of practice Thursday with thumb and toe injuries. Coach Ben Johnson said earlier this week that the thumb injury shouldn't be an issue, but he hadn't addressed Monangai's toe injury.

Swift was limited in practice with hip and knee injuries. He had 15 carries for 58 yards against the Jets, but the biggest blemish of his day was the lost fumble, his second of the season.

“That ain’t me,” Swift said. “So I’m not about to make it a thing. Just be more conscious of it.”

Another flaw for the Bears has been their lack of effectiveness in the red zone (42.11%, ranked 30th), an area of emphasis all week. But red-zone rushing probably has been particularly galling for Ben Johnson, as big a disciple of the run as there is in the league.

In the first series against the Jets, Swift saw touchdown runs from the 3- and 1-yard lines reversed on replay.

The Bears turned the ball over on downs.

On the next series, the Bears drove to the Jets 4, but it took three straight tries for Monangai to cross the goal line.

“Very” frustrating, Swift said. “Because I think if we clean up the red-zone scoring we’ll be in a better position offensively with points and things like that. But got to get it in there. Got to score on the first drive.”

Swifts other fumble this season also came in the red zone: He fumbled near the goal line against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 2.

The Bears converted 100% of red-zone trips against the Panthers, but the fact they went 0-for-3 against the Vikings and converted 40% versus the Philadelphia Eagles and 29% against the Jets over the last three weeks has been “disappointing,” offensive coordinator Press Taylor said.

"Certain teams have played us maybe a little bit differently than we planned for based on whatever they saw on us," he said. "So we're trying to make sure we do a great job self-scouting, things like that.

“But ultimately it’s something we got to get cleaned up, and I think we’re on the right track of doing that. But it’s got to show up for us.”

INJURIES

Guards Jonah Jackson (ankle) and Joe Thuney (pectoral) and right tackle Darnell Wright (ankle) all returned to practice Thursday after missing Wednesday's session.

Quarterback Caleb Williams (hamstring) and linebacker Keyshaun Elliott (quad) missed practice.

However, defensive backs Kyler Gordon (calf) and Cam Lewis (hip) were full participants, as were linebacker Noah Sewell (Achilles) and Shemar Turner (knee).

Gordon, Sewell and Turner remained on the reserve/physically unable to perform list as of Thursday but have been practicing in their respective 21-day return-to-pay windows.

Will D'Andre Swift still be RB1? — @zachattack0181

Swift probably remains the option that gets the most use in base downs, and he has more value in the passing game too. The play on which Swift lost the ball Sunday was really uncharacteristic of him because he's not usually one to be sloppy with the football, but in this instance that's exactly what happened.

"We all have to have short memories," coach Ben Johnson said Monday. "We've got to learn from it, and coaches, players, all of us, we're going to do some things that we don't like at times. Could be a bad play call on my end, could be a missed tackle by our defense. All of those things happen. Learn from it and move on."

The frustrating thing is the turnover came only two weeks after Swift lost a fumble on first-and-goal from the 1-yard line against the Minnesota Vikings. Had he not lost the ball there, the outcome of that game could have gone the other way.

Reality is the Bears will need both Swift and Kyle Monangai, who had a career-high 30 carries for 146 yards and two touchdowns against the New York Jets, throughout the course of the season.

I was asked before the season about the time share in the backfield, and I thought it would be similar to last season, when Swift got 55.75% of the carries by running backs, Monangai had 42.25% and a couple of guys shared the remaining 2%.

That's the key there. If the Bears can keep Swift and Monangai in the mix for the vast majority of the season, they'll be able to have a fresh back on the field a lot of the time. The distribution of carries could be closer to 50-50, but that wouldn't be a huge shift from 2025.

Swift missed practice Wednesday and was limited Thursday with knee and hip issues. Monangai injured his knee late in training camp and suffered a right thumb injury late in Sunday's game. He sat out Wednesday and Thursday, listed with thumb and toe injures. Johnson has called the thumb a "day-to-day" injury.

Swift has 69 carries this season to 60 for Monangai. The Bears are looking at their issues in the red zone, where both backs have had some tough sledding. Maybe that's a spot where we'll see a little more Monangai, but he also has had a tough time getting to daylight near the goal line.

The coaching staff has to sort through some stuff here, but through four games this is the top-ranked rushing offense in the NFL, averaging 196.3 yards per game - 15.3 more than the second-ranked Atlanta Falcons.

The Bears' 785 rushing yards is their most through four games since 1984, when they started with 801. Only four other teams since 2014 have had that many through four games.

Am I right to think the defensive line can be a whole lot better than expected or am I hitting the Kool-Aid too hard? — Keith L., Homer Glen

I was a little surprised there weren't more questions this week about the defense, as the Bears have allowed only two touchdowns and 28 points total over the last three games. To find the last time they allowed 28 points or fewer over a three-game stretch, you have to go back to Weeks 4 through 7 (including a bye week) in 2012.

It all starts up front, and the line has been good and the pass rush certainly looks improved over a year ago. Dayo Odeyingbo has three sacks and Montez Sweat and Austin Booker have two apiece. They haven't necessarily looked overpowering chasing down quarterbacks, but it has been cohesive and that lends itself to what defensive coordinator Dennis Allen is getting at when he talks about marrying the pass rush and coverage.

"We talk about the No. 1 factor being the pass game efficiency on both sides of the ball," Johnson said. "To put it in a layman's terms, if our quarterback plays better than your quarterback, we have a good shot of winning the ballgame.

"I felt like the last two weeks in particular, we really affected the quarterback through both the rush and the coverage aspect. DA's doing a great job mixing in these coverages. Our guys on the back end are executing at a really high level. Just being sticky and limiting the throwing lanes, and then our rush plan has been outstanding. Whether we're rushing four or whether we're bringing pressure, these guys are all working together at a high clip right now."

How was the pass protection for "The Eagle" in Week 4? — @justinianuscode

I thought Theo Benedet played pretty well against the Jets, who we saw move rookie edge rusher David Bailey around a little bit. Benedet was under control a lot better than he was when first pressed into action last season, and that's a credit to the hard work he did in the offseason.

He had a tendency to get off balance way too often last season, and that's when he got in trouble and had guys going around him, inside him or straight through him. The coaches have stressed the need for him to play with better posture and use his arms, and he did that against the Jets.

"I thought he did a really nice job," Johnson said. "We know he's got the ability to sink and play with low pad level and displace defenders at the point of attack. He showed that at times, so it's a good start for him to learn from and grow from.

"I'm glad he felt somewhat more comfortable out there. I think him and (left guard) Joe (Thuney), they communicate well together on the left side, and it's certainly something that we can continue to improve and get better at also."

The benefit of having Benedet play better than he did in 2025 is there's no need to rush Ozzy Trapilo back into action. I suspect there's a possibility Trapilo will be active for the first time this season Sunday in Green Bay.

But Benedet looks like he'll be in the starting lineup, and if he plays well, he could hold down the spot for a little bit because the Bears really want to be intentional with how they bring back Trapilo. It's a challenge to get a lineman who missed nearly all of training camp and all of the preseason up to speed because padded practices are so scarce during the regular season.

MLB PLAYOFFS

Brewers' 'belief' at all-time high

By Greg Beacham ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN DIEGO — After yet another businesslike victory in a season full of them, the Brewers celebrated their National League Division Series clincher inside Petco Park on Wednesday night amid beer showers, wafting cigar smoke and countless bottles of sparkling wine individually labeled with the names of various Wisconsin cities.

The Brewers are thrilled to head home with another playoff series victory during the best stretch in team history – but they also know the Dodgers, who also advanced Wednesday, are going to meet them in Milwaukee this weekend.

A year after the Brewers did not appear to be ready to meet the challenge posed by the intimidating World Series champions while getting unceremoniously swept out of the NL Championship Series, this team is certain it can do better in the rematch.

The Brewers' tense NLDS win over the Padres — four games decided by five combined runs — only underlined their growing confidence in their ability to excel in October and to truly fight for this team's first championship.

"I think we have a different type of confidence and belief in ourselves," said center fielder Garrett Mitchell, the Game 4 hero with his bat and glove. "It's just like a quiet, subtle confidence. It's not showboaty. It's just everyone who's in this clubhouse, from the front office to the staff, everyone believes. ... I also think it's a year difference. Guys are continuing to mature.

“We’re all excited to go out and compete and try to get it done.”

With their eighth play-off appearance in the last nine seasons off to a strong start, the Brewers are gradually knocking down the remaining barriers to their ultimate goal.

This group ended the Brewers' 12-game road postseason losing streak since 2018 with the clincher in San Diego, executing nearly flawlessly in the process. The Brewers held the Padres to three hits and got timely hits of their own while playing exceptional defense and gradually draining the spirit from the normally frenzied Petco crowd.

“That team right there can beat anybody in baseball,” Brewers manager Pat Murphy said of the Padres. “Nobody has a winning record on the road in the postseason — except maybe the Dodgers. It’s just not the way it is. The environments are so tough to play in. Yeah, so that was going to happen at some point if we keep banging on the postseason door.”

The Dodgers are standing in the way of the next door, but the Brewers believe it's finally their time.

“Tonight is about us, but tomorrow we’re making a plan,” Game 4 starter Robert Gasser said. “We’re trying to execute and figure out, ‘How do we go in and get two wins at home and head over to LA and take care of business there?’

“We’ve played them well this year. We saw them last year in the NLCS, but we’ve got all hands on deck, and we’re ready to go.”

IN BRIEF

MLB eyes shorter season, best-of-7 division series

NEWS SERVICES

Major League Baseball proposed to shorten the regular season to 154 games from 162 starting in 2029 and to expand the Division Series to best-of-seven in a plan given to players during collective bargaining Thursday.

Owners also proposed adding nine additional days off to the current postseason format, extending it to a maximum 42 in a move that would give top starting pitchers potential to appear more.

MLB would allow higher-seeded teams in the first two rounds of the postseason to pick their opponents beginning next year and would make most regular-season Mondays a day off for the vast majority of teams starting in 2029 except for those in up to two nationally broadcast games.

Cutting regular-season games would reduce the opportunity for players to set season and career records.

The players' association said it will review the plan and will respond at the bargaining table.

NFL WANTS 'CLARITY' OF SUPREME COURT RULING The NFL is urging the Supreme Court to rule on the regulation of prediction markets, arguing in an amicus brief filed Thursday that states — which already regulate legal sports books — are better positioned to oversee sports-related contracts "given the current landscape." The NFL is supporting New Jersey's request for the Supreme Court to rule on the governing authority for prediction markets, which provide an opportunity to trade — or wager — on the result of future events. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission has maintained it has exclusive federal jurisdiction, while states have argued that the array of typically yes-or-no questions is akin to gambling and falls under their purview. "Absent the clarity that only this Court can provide, (prediction market) operators will continue exploiting the gap between state and federal regulation, endangering consumers and the integrity of sports events across the country," lawyers for the NFL wrote. According to the NFL's brief, on the first Sunday of this season, more than half of the trading volume on prediction markets — \$1.8 billion out of \$3.3 billion total — was related to the league. “Any delay from the Court will result in increasing consumer harm and risk to game integrity,” the NFL wrote in its brief.

WILSON WINS HER 5TH WNBA MVP, 3RD STRAIGHT

A'ja Wilson won the WNBA MVP on Thursday for a third straight year and record fifth time overall. Besides becoming the first player to three-peat, Wilson also won the award in 2020 and '22. The 30-year-old Wilson once again led the league in scoring (26.2) while shooting nearly 53% from the field. She also

averaged 9.4 rebounds, a career-best 3.2 assists and 1.9 blocks. Wilson has the defending champion Aces back in the WNBA semifinals for the eighth consecutive season although they're down 2-0 in the best-of-five series against the Valkyries. Wilson received 65 first-place votes and nine second-place votes (total 713 points) from a national panel of sportswriters and broadcasters. Lynx rookie guard Olivia Miles received six first-place votes and 40 second-place votes (442 points), while Fever guards Kelsey Mitchell and Caitlin Clark followed with 287 and 212 points, respectively. No WNBA player besides Wilson has more than three MVPs, with Sheryl Swoopes, Lisa Leslie and Lauren Jackson each having a trio of them. On the NBA side, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar had six and Michael Jordan and Bill Russell each had five.

UEFA DISCUSSES CANDIDATE TYPE VS. INFANTINO European soccer body UEFA has detailed the kind of FIFA president it wants to replace Gianni Infantino — “a respected and unifying figure, deeply rooted in football.” A candidate that “represents FIFA globally and provides leadership without exercising management functions,” UEFA said on Thursday after a meeting of its 55 member federations that shaped a strategy to find an opponent for Infantino before a Nov. 18 deadline. Exactly who that candidate could be wasn’t discussed Thursday in Berlin, though it will not be UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin and potentially also not be European in the search for global votes among 211 FIFA member federations. Ceferin will stand for reelection for a fourth and final UEFA term. That next election is in April. Ceferin has led global efforts by soccer officials since July to oust Infantino from his increasingly executive-style presidency before or at the FIFA election in March. Infantino’s secretive and defeated plan to sell stakes in the World Cup and other tournaments to private investors pushed UEFA’s long-held unease with FIFA projects and governance toward running a rival against him. Ceferin and global soccer leaders will meet Infantino next week in Zurich for the first meeting of the 37-member FIFA Council since the equity plan was revealed. — AP

Cowboys blaze new trail

Ahead of the Oregon game, Morris leads the Cowboys in the program's tradition of walking down Hester Street and into Boone Pickens Stadium in Stillwater. The first-year coach says “the energy you feel ... has been incredible.”

Under new coach and QB, OK State relevant again, rises to No. 18 in rankings

By Pat Graham

ASSOCIATED PRESS

To fix things on the football field, Oklahoma State looked south to Denton, Texas. By glancing in that direction, the Cowboys are once again heading north in the standings and rankings.

Oklahoma State brought in head coach Eric Morris from North Texas in Denton and he took with him a host of Mean Green talent, including a dark horse Heisman Trophy candidate in quarterback Drew Mestemaker.

Morris and the North Texas transplants have helped restore the luster to a program that tumbled in recent seasons under longtime coach Mike Gundy. The Cowboys are 3-1 and ranked No. 18 in the latest AP poll. They have a signature win on their resume, over then-No. 6 Oregon, along with their first Big 12 victory — beating West Virginia — since Nov. 25, 2023.

The Cowboys are one of the surprises this season and right there in the conference mix with No. 8 BYU (4-0), No. 11 Texas Tech (5-0), No. 12 Utah (4-0) and No. 22 Houston (4-1). Of those teams, the Cowboys only face Houston (Oct. 17) and the Red Raiders (Nov. 14).

THE WALK

Build it, Morris was told, and watch the growth. That was the message from former Oklahoma State standout QB Brandon Weeden.

“Told me, ‘Hey, coach, if you get this thing going, you’ll be surprised. If you light a match under this thing it will catch fire and be incredible like you’ve never seen,’” explained Morris, whose team had last week off and plays UCF on Saturday. “To see that and the people care about this program so much, this university so much, it’s just rewarding to see their faces after a win and smiling.”

Morris inherited a Cowboys team that finished 1-11 a season ago. He overhauled the roster and brought in 91 newcomers, including 18 players who were with him on the 2025 Mean Green, which went 12-2.

The Morris Era got off to a rocky start as the Cowboys lost 24-10 loss at Tulsa. But they bounced back in a hurry by upsetting the Ducks 39-31 for the program's first win over a team in the AP top six since knocking off No. 5 Notre Dame on January 1, 2022.

This is a well-funded program thanks to the contributions of the late T. Boone Pickens. It's a program rich on tradition, too, as Morris found out. He raved about the "The Walk," a pregame football ritual where the team, coaches, marching band and spirit squad make their way down Hester Street and into Boone Pickens Stadium.

"My favorite thing so far about being here," Morris said. "... the energy you feel in it has been incredible."

NEW STAR

This is a proud program that's featured standouts over the years such as Barry Sanders, Thurman Thomas, Dez Bryant, Mason Rudolph, Chuba Hubbard and Weeden, among others.

Mestemaker is trying to add his name to the distinguished list. He wasn't among the early Heisman favorites but he's now being mentioned.

Morris gave Mestemaker a chance to walk-on at North Texas and he led the FBS in yards passing as a redshirt freshman last season. He's following in the footsteps of other QBs that Morris has either coached, developed or recruited, a list that includes Patrick Mahomes, Baker Mayfield and Cam Ward.

Mestemaker is now showing off his arm on an even bigger stage after leading the FBS ranks with 4,379 yards passing for North Texas a year ago.

"There's all those talks about a college town and how much different football is in a college town, and Stillwater is probably the definition of that," said Mestemaker, who's thrown for at least 200 yards in 19 straight games. "I learned that pretty quick on that first game against Oregon. It's been awesome to have the support of the fans. It just makes winning that much more fun."

EARLY BREAKS

After this week, 11 of the 16 teams will have had their week off before playing half of their games. Kansas, BYU and Arizona State started stretches of playing nine straight weeks.

For some teams, the off week couldn't come at a better time. Colorado has dropped three straight and needs the time to reevaluate its QB dilemma. Isaac Wilson struggled last weekend in a 29-7 loss to Texas Tech after taking over for Julian "JuJu" Lewis.

"Sooner or later, you've got to just want this more than you want what you got coming," coach Deion Sanders said. "You've got to want to win more than a check or fanfare or pandemonium."

COLLEGE FOOTBALL PREDICTIONS

Power 4 teams look for key league wins

By Eric Olson | ASSOCIATED PRESS

It's too early to call it Separation Saturday, but this week's college football schedule will start establishing the pecking order in the Power Four conferences.

In the SEC, the Georgia-Alabama winner will be 4-0 in league play and ahead of the pack along with Texas, assuming the Longhorns beat Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry game.

In the Big Ten, Ohio State has an easy assignment playing Maryland at the Horseshoe, but Indiana faces its toughest game to date at Nebraska and Oregon hosts a much-improved UCLA.

In the ACC, Miami gets the week off while the other two unbeatens in league play try to keep pace. Pittsburgh hosts North Carolina and Duke visits Georgia Tech.

In the Big 12, Texas Tech and surprising Baylor are off while BYU plays Iowa State at home and Utah hosts Kansas. Oklahoma State can show its a contender with a win at home over UCF.

The picks, with rankings and betting lines:

No. 2 Georgia at No. 6 Alabama: Keelon Russell and the Crimson Tide are on a roll and at home, as long as a tropical storm doesn't interfere. Georgia's big offensive numbers have come against a schedule that ranks in the bottom quarter of FBS. Line: Alabama by 2. Pick: Alabama 31-28.

No. 7 Indiana at Nebraska: Turbo Richard-Lee Bebee Jr. at running back and Charlie Becker-Nick Marsh at receiver for the Hoosiers are among the best combos in the nation. Cornhuskers have lost 30 straight to Top 25 opponents. Line: Indiana by $7 \frac{1}{2}$ . Pick: Indiana 38-17.

UCF at No. 18 Oklahoma State: UCF blew a 17-point, third-quarter lead at Houston last week, has injury issues and goes to Stillwater on an 11-game road losing streak. Cowboys had last week off. Line: Oklahoma State by 9. Pick: Oklahoma State 35-13.

No. 21 UCLA at No. 13 Oregon: Bruins are out to a surprising 4-0 start and can score in bunches. So can Oregon, and the Ducks are at home and in good hands with Dylan Raiola filling in at QB for Dante Moore (concussion). Line: Oregon by 11. Pick: Oregon 34-28.

North Carolina at No. 25 Pittsburgh: Panthers fifth-year QB Holden Geriner will make his first career start in place of Mason Heintschel (ACL). Tar Heels are 1-5 on road under Bill Belichick. Line: Pitt by 4. Pick: Pitt 32-26.

THE REST

No. 1 Texas vs. Oklahoma (plus $8 \frac{1}{2}$ ) in Dallas: Oklahoma's defense is strong enough to keep this close, and QB John Mateer got a vote of confidence from Brent Venables this week. That doesn't change the fact the Sooners' offense is a mess ... TEXAS 21-14.

Stanford at No. 3 Notre Dame (minus $38 \frac{1}{2}$ ): Fighting Irish had trouble putting away UNC last week. That shouldn't be a problem against Stanford, which is playing back-to-back games in the Eastern time zone ... NOTRE DAME 52-10. Maryland at No. 5 Ohio State (minus $34 \frac{1}{2}$ ): Buckeyes have scored at least 52 points in six of nine meetings since Maryland joined the Big Ten. They might score 62 or more this time ... OHIO STATE 62-21.

Iowa State at No. 8 BYU (minus 10): Cougars are tough on Friday nights in Provo, and they're going for a third straight 5-0 start. Aiden Flora's prodigious production against West Virginia won't carry over for the Cyclones ... BYU 39-19. No. 9 Mississippi at Vanderbilt (plus 9): Rebels have had an extra week to stew over their loss to Florida. Let's see if they've tightened up a defense that's last in the SEC ... MISSISSIPPI 30-27.

No.10 LSU at Kentucky (plus 8): LSU's Sam Leavitt has had a couple nice outings but has thrown at least one interception in every game. Kentucky is tough at home ... LSU 27-24. Kansas at No. 12 Utah (minus 15): Utes are well-rested after a week off and are giving up just 10.3 points per game. Wayshawn Parker piled up 174 yards rushing vs. Iowa State and might go off again against the Jayhawks ... UTAH 35-13. Texas A&M at No. 14 Missouri (minus $3 \frac{1}{2}$ ): Tigers' Jamal Roberts ran for 211 yards against Florida and is second in the SEC at 121 yards per game. No player has run for 100 vs. the Aggies this season ... MISSOURI 27-21.

No.15 Tennessee (minus 13 $^{1/2}$ ) at Arkansas: Look for the Vols to give Arkansas a steady dose of DeSean Bishop. Razorbacks have allowed 15 rushing TDs, tied for most in the nation ... TENNESSEE 41-10.

South Carolina at No. 16 Florida (minus 13): With back-to-back games coming up vs. Texas and Georgia, Gators want to flush what happened last week at Missouri in a hurry. A Gamecocks team in disarray is the tonic ... FLORIDA 36-21. No. 19 Southern California at Penn State (minus 1): Nittany Lions got outmuscled by Northwestern and fans are starting to squirm because of new coach Matt Campbell's 0-2 start in Big Ten play. USC struggles on the road and is playing in the Eastern time zone for second time in four games ... PENN STATE 27-24.

No.20 Iowa at Washington (minus 3): Hawkeyes could be without QB Hank Brown, who appeared to hurt his shoulder vs. Ohio State and is questionable for Friday night's game ... WASHINGTON 23-17.

No. 22 Houston at Kansas State (minus $2 \frac{1}{2}$ ): A fun nugget is that Houston QB Conner Weigman is facing the team coached by his former Texas A&M offensive coordinator, Collin Klein, who benched him in 2024 and replaced him with Marcel Reed ... KANSAS STATE 30-27.

No. 23 Boise State at Fresno State (plus $6 \frac{1}{2}$ ): The teams play for the Milk Can Trophy, and the Bulldogs have had it for three years. Fresno State has allowed a total of 43 points over its last four games ... FRESNO STATE 23-22.

At Gichigamiin Indigenous Nations Museum in Evanston, new exhibits are only the beginning

By Hannah Edgar FOR CHICAGO TRIBUNE

When visitors arrive Monday at the Gichigamiin Indigenous Nations Museum in

Evanston for Indigenous Peoples' Day — its most visited day of the year — they will be greeted by freshly installed exhibitions on its ground and second floor.

The museum reopened Oct. 1 after being closed since late July. Its new anchor exhibition, “Indigenous Chicago,” is adapted from a recent Newberry Library exhibition of the same name, with additions specific to the Gichigamiin’s version: canoes from the museum collection, and a model of Jigzibik (Potawatomi for “at the river’s edge”), a Native American-focused affordable housing project underway in the Irving Park neighborhood.

Upstairs is a new interactive children's exhibition, "Gifts of Our World," and "Chicago's Legacy Hula," itself derived from a recent Field Museum exhibition. (The Aloha Center Chicago, a community hub for Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders, is sharing space with the Gichigamiin Museum while it renovates its own space.)

But the new exhibits are just the most visible outgrowth of major changes at the Gichigamiin Museum in recent years, starting with its name. After being founded as the Mitchell Museum of the American Indian in 1977, it was renamed in 2024 for the Anishinaabemowin

word meaning "Great Lakes."

“I called up three very accomplished Native people that I knew in the area and asked them to join the board,” Executive Director Kim Vigue said. “The first one I asked said, ‘I’ll join if you work on changing the name.’”

Gichigamiin's board is now majority Indigenous, and the museum is now Indigenous-led: Vigue, an Oneida Nation citizen and Menominee descendant with deep experience in federal tribal health programs, joined the museum in 2021. And she had a clear vision about how the museum should evolve in the coming years.

"I came here with my children a couple of years earlier and thought, 'There's a lot of objects. But where's the stories, and the people?" she said.

To refocus its narrative, the Gichigamiin Museum has narrowed its scope to the Great Lakes region rather than all of the United States and Canada. As a result, it hired dedicated staff to oversee the complex process of object repatriation, which requires special sensitivity when it pertains to Native artifacts.

The museum is poring through the 10,000 items in its collection to determine whether each item should be kept, repatriated or released — and how — in compliance with the Native American Graves Protection and Repa-"I came here with my children a couple of years earlier and thought, 'There's a lot of objects. But where's the stories, and the people?'" EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR KIM VIGUE

triation Act of 1990. Vigue said she and her colleagues endeavor to “go a step beyond that.”

“Since we’ve become an Indigenous-led museum, we have this philosophy that none of these belong to us,” she says. “NAGPRA (applies to) things that are culturally significant or spiritually significant, but that’s subjective. We’re looking to repatriate or to return items that don’t necessarily fall within the law.”

As it continues to transform, the Gichigamiin Museum is leaning into other shifts in curation. In community feedback surveys, Native and non-Native audiences alike demonstrated keen interest in questions of environmental stewardship.

That's reflected in the museum's lush native plant garden, as well as “Gifts of Our World,” which Vigue said “focuses on caring for all living things.”

In the former play space, birch branches that once propped up an inaccurate representation of a historical Native dwelling have been reassembled as a decorative installation in the entryway.

REVIEW 'THE SOCIAL RECKONING' ★★★

Sorkin communicates meaningful message, but sequel lacks nuance

Jeremy Strong stars as Facebook leader Mark Zuckerberg in Aaron Sorkin's "The Social Reckoning." SONY PICTURES

By Katie Walsh TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

If David Fincher's 2010 tech drama “The Social Network” was about Mark Zuckerberg’s legal battle to secure the Facebook bag, Aaron Sorkin’s “The Social Reckoning,” arriving 16 years later, is about the burden of what it means to carry that bag. Zuckerberg himself couldn’t have predicted what he would unknowingly unleash on the world when he created Facebook under the guise of “connection,” but in the harsh light of the 2020s, was wrestling it away from his early collaborators all worth it? Perhaps not, argues Sorkin, and perhaps Zuckerberg is the worst person to end up steering the Facebook ship.

Sorkin, who won an Oscar for his “The Social Network” screenplay, takes on both writing and directing duties in the sequel.

This is his fourth feature film as a director, and his talents do not lie behind the camera, but on the page. He's a televisual artist, not a cinematic one, and his film directing work is blunt, even ham-fisted at times, bearing none of the sleekness or nuance of "The Social Network."

However, Sorkin is a deadly effective communicator with dialogue; even if none of the characters in his scripts speak like real people, they get his point across with plenty of style and panache. There's no mistaking what Sorkin is trying to say about any of his subjects at hand.

But subtlety is not the goal of “The Social Reckoning,” which dramatizes the 2021 Facebook Files leak published in the Wall Street Journal. Instead, Sorkin

utilizes the medium of mainstream popular film to drive home the major revelations from the Facebook Files for audiences who may not have read the articles or paid attention to the testimony of whistleblower Frances Haugen, played here by Oscar winner Mikey Madison.

He also points out how Zuckerberg (Jeremy Strong) repeatedly placed his thumb on Facebook's algorithmic scale to maximize company profits over the safety of people, and indeed, democracy itself. In order to keep users scrolling and engagement up, Zuck makes the call to emphasize a metric called "Meaningful Social Interaction," which rewards outrage bait, leading to online extremism. Sorkin directly links this to the Jan. 6 insurrection, and while Haugen did testify about Facebook's role in those events, Sorkin fudges the dates and condenses the timeline for dramatic effect.

Jeremy Allen White plays Jeff Horwitz, an investigative reporter on the Facebook beat for the Wall Street Journal. White is in a version of "All the President's Men," but instead of Nixon goons, he's chasing down socially awkward computer engineers, the mysterious White House now Facebook HQ. His "Deep Throat" becomes Frances, suspicious and skittish, but her moral compass overrides her company loyalty.

Watching Strong is like peering at an AI-generated Zuckerberg: uncannily accurate mimicry, but something's off, because it's a completely different person. His posture is erect, his mouth stiff, and by the end of the film, Sorkin and Strong have depicted Zuckerberg as a completely antisocial and incompetent leader of a company that's twice the size of the largest country in the world.

Surrounded by yes people and henchmen, Zuckerberg is so insulated from the outside world that when a former adviser and vocal critic (Bill Burr) shows up at his congressional testimony prep, Zuckerberg's utterly baffled to be challenged. Their arguments reveal that he can't comprehend any value other than monetary.

"The Social Reckoning" is big, broad and bears cringe-worthy creative choices that are earnest Sorkin hallmarks. It feels less like a complex film about one of our most challenging structural societal ills, and more like a very special episode of "The West Wing" or "The Newsroom," where one person learns they can make a change, and what it means to actually pump your fist in victory.

Rodrigo buys iconic dress at auction

FROM NEWS SERVICES

When Meg White's dress that she wore on the cover of the White Stripes' 2003 album "Elephant" sold at auction earlier this year, it wound up in the hands of a special collector and giant fan: Olivia Rodrigo.

The pop megastar tells The Hollywood Reporter that she spent an “exorbitant amount of money” to purchase the vintage white cotton eyelet maxi dress by Gunne Sax, which was part of an auction of White Stripes memorabilia by Julien’s Auctions.

The final price tag was \$25,600, according to the final auction prices, by far the most expensive piece in the collection.

Rodrigo tells The Hollywood Reporter she planned to wear the dress onstage at her Daisy Chain Fields festival in August, but decided against it because it was “too (expletive) hot,” she said. “Maybe if I do Daisy Chain in the winter, I can wear it.”

Rodrigo who was 5 weeks old when “Elephant” was released has long professed her love for Jack White and the White Stripes.

"I love Jack White. He's like my hero," Rodrigo said of White during a "Tonight Show" appearance in May. "He's the coolest guy ever.

Wonderful person. Always stands up for what's right."

The White Stripes auction came from the personal collection of Detroit musician Tracee Mae Miller, a collaborator and close friend of White.

The dress Rodrigo bought “features a slight sweetheart neckline, ruffles at the empire waistline, bishop sleeves that taper at the wrist with a zipper detail, and a flowing, floor-length maxi skirt with a tiered design and ruffle at the hem,” according to an item description.

'Kin' wins Kirkus Prize: Tayari Jones' "Kin," a novel tracing the life and times of two Black friends from small-town Louisiana, has won the Kirkus Prize for fiction.

Paula Colloff's "Catch the Devil: A True Story of Murder, Deception, and Injustice on the Gulf Coast" won for nonfiction, and Elizabeth Acevedo's "Anger Is Only a Shadow" was awarded for young readers' literature. Each of the three authors receives a \$50,000 cash prize.

Colson Whitehead's "Cool Machine," Douglas Stuart's "John of John" and Patrick Radden Keefe's "London Falling" were among the finalists.

Previous winners of the

Kirkus awards include Whitehead, Joy Williams and Ta-Nehisi Coates.

Goth, LaBeouf to divorce: Mia Goth has filed for divorce from Shia LaBeouf nearly 10 years after the two actors were married.

The petition filed Tuesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court says Goth and LaBeouf have been separated since July 2025.

The two met and became a couple while filming “Nymphomaniac: Vol. II” in 2012 and married in 2016. They had previously split and said they were divorcing in 2018, but remained legally married and had a daughter in 2022.

Goth is seeking primary legal and physical custody of the 4-year-old, with visitation rights for LaBeouf. She also asked the court to deny either party spousal support. It was the first marriage for both.

Oct. 9 birthdays: Singer Nona Hendryx is 82. Singer Jackson Browne is 78. Actor Scott Bakula is 72. Director Guillermo del Toro is 62. Singer P.J. Harvey is 57. Actor Cocoa Brown is 54.

Partner desires greater intimacy, but spouse remains uninterested

R. Eric Thomas ASKING ERIC

Dear Eric: My spouse of 12 years and I do not fight, argue, or call names; we generally see eye to eye except when it comes to sex drive. We're both respectful, but I do admit I have become uncaring over the years of avoidance of the issue and ignorance of how much I've worked to change.

Aside from early into the relationship my spouse will not initiate sex. Occasionally, after long stints she may ask me, yet it always feels forced, under time constraints and always after very long periods of time where I have ceased attempts with her.

I've tried literally 14 times over 12 years to speak to her about the issue. I've spoken calmly, non-accusatory and have been widely open to change in any and all regards to make things better.

I've explained its importance and its negative effect on my day-to-day mood. I've been left with no response at all. No info to go on, no help to change. I've learned to cook, been a great housekeeper, childcare, masseuse trying to find something that may make her care enough, yet nothing. I get there may be issues I'm unaware of, but I wouldn't know.

We're going to sort out counseling shortly. I'll bring up my same concerns as I always have.

Do you have any advice about how I can help her be more comfortable to open up to me so we can get past this? I deeply love her and want to be what she needs me to be to be happy.

Want to Be Closer

Dear Closer: I'm glad you're planning to work with a counselor about this. Often couples find themselves stuck in a problem and it's important to remember that you don't have to untie every knot by yourselves. In fact, it can be easier to involve a neutral third party who can help translate, diffuse and clarify.

Going into these sessions, remind yourself that you are both navigating a communication challenge in your relationship. You may or may not be hearing each other clearly and you're not connecting in a way that seems to work for either of you. Intercourse is likely only a part of the issue, not the root.

So, try not to think of these sessions as an opportunity for you both to work on a concern you have with your wife. This isn't about "fixing" a problem or changing her.

This is about creating a safe space for you both to talk to and hear each other and, ideally, understand each other better.

Dear Eric: I'm a senior who's getting tired of friends my age wanting favors and assuming I'll do more than I want to do.

Some friends are becoming increasingly needy, wanting me to take them to doctor's appointments, outpatient surgeries and grocery stores and to act as handyman. I've started setting boundaries, standing up for myself and saying, no I cannot do that.

They frequently want to debate or talk me into it. It's hard to have to stand my ground and it makes me uncomfortable and resentful.

What's going on? I'm feeling overwhelmed and unappreciated as a friend. Can you provide some perspective on this?

Maybe I'm not even seen as a friend, just someone they can use. Advice would be greatly appreciated. — Team Player

Dear Team: It's good that you've been working on setting and holding boundaries.

Some may think that boundaries — or even the word “no” — create fissures in relationships. But the truth is boundaries help to keep relationships healthy and safe.

To wit, in your case, the feeling that your needs or capacity haven't been considered has led to resentment, so a boundary is necessary to keep resentment from growing.

The debate is concerning. Your friends may be taking you for granted, or they may think that your “no” isn’t a hard no.

They may also be focused on the enormity of their own needs and unable to make space for yours.

It can be very disempowering to get to a place in life where one needs help getting to appointments or doing household tasks they once could do with ease. It can be frightening as well.

It's likely a relief to have a friend who is available to help. Your friends may not have other people to whom they can turn.

This isn't to say that you should simply grit your teeth and bear it. Quite the opposite; if it's become burdensome or you feel unappreciated, the healthy thing to do is to pause and make sure that you and your friends are hearing each other clearly so that no one gets overwhelmed.

This might mean you only make some of the trips and help them think of other friends who can lend a hand.

Directors urge viewers to keep quiet on documentary's secrets

By Jake Coyle ASSOCIATED PRESS

Nathan Fielder is one of the directors of the documentary "You Can See Everything." JAE C. HONG/AP 2025

No longer a secret, “You Can See Everything,” Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s Elizabeth Holmes documentary, premiered recently at the New York Film Festival.

Since debuting in a surprise, no-phones screening at the recent Telluride Film Festival, “You Can See Everything” immediately transformed into one of the year’s most buzzed-about films.

Shot secretly over three years, the nearly three-hour documentary captures Holmes, founder of the medical testing company Theranos, in the 34 days before reporting to prison. But as fans of Fielder would expect, little in how “You Can See Everything” follows a conventional route.

In New York, moviegoers lined up outside the Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center as early as 3 a.m. in hopes of attending the sold-out 8 p.m. screening.

"You Can See Everything," which will be released in theaters Oct. 16 by A24, is a hard-to-believe coda to a preposterous saga. Even Fielder isn't sure what to make of the surreal odyssey he and Oppenheim captured.

"I am still struggling to this day to understand what I went through," Fielder said in a session following the screening.

After her conviction on four felony counts of fraud and conspiracy, Holmes entered a Texas prison in May 2023. In a headline-grabbing scandal that rocked Silicon Valley, one of the most surprising and surreal twists was revealed only recently.

Holmes chose to let Fielder — the absurdist comedian of “Nathan For You” and “The Rehearsal”

— and documentary film-maker Oppenheim intimately film her life with her partner, California hotel heir Billy Evans, and their two children.

At this dramatic moment in their lives, Fielder lived in a guest house at their Del Mar, California, beachside home. The filmmakers shot from morning to night. Fielder interviews the couple while in bed, or the bathroom.

“I mean, I cannot tell you how weird it was that we were there,” Fielder said. “I wouldn’t think I’d be, like, the person that you would want for your final 34 days of freedom. I’m not the most, like, comforting.”

The filmmakers happened to hear that Holmes and Evans had reached out to A24 about the prospect of making a documentary. Fielder didn't initially think it would amount to a feature film, but he was curious just to meet Holmes.

"When I met her, I remember having this weird experience," Fielder explained. "She seems so genuine at times but then I'm like, (expletive), tracking my thoughts and being like, 'I know she's a liar.'"

“Every person who worked on this movie was going through a similar cognitive dissonance,” said Oppenheim, who

also directed the recently released film “Primetime,” starring Robert Pattinson as “To Catch a Predator” host Chris Hansen. “We would unpack the day’s events, and no one could agree on seemingly mundane moments that would transpire.”

In “You Can See Everything,” Fielder seeks not only to grasp what is true and not true about Holmes, but to grapple with deeper questions of identity, performance, fiction and control.

The filmmakers more than once asked the Alice Tully Hall crowd to preserve the surprise twists and turns the movie takes as it shifts. That includes dramatic re-creations with the aid of an A-list star and other elaborations, all in an effort to get closer to the truth.

But even as Fielder and Oppenheim pleaded for viewers not to discuss the film in too much detail, they were clearly eager to debate and try to make sense of "You Can See Everything."

"As each scene that happens, it's happening, and we're documenting it. There's no plan of what's going to happen next at any point," Fielder said. "This is a path that opened up to us, and we just followed it."

REVIEW 'THE LAST FIRST: WINTER K2' ★★★

Falling rocks, avalanches, greed converge in true tale of climbers

A person climbs in "The Last First: Winter K2." APPLE TV

By Jocelyn Noveck ASSOCIATED PRESS

"He has to go and live on the edge," explains Lina Móey about her husband, the Icelandic mountaineer John Snorri Sigurjonsson, in "The Last First: Winter K2."

And she means it literally: He has to go live on the edge of a mountain.

In this case, it's the most forbidding mountain on the planet: K2, on the border between Pakistan and China. Sigurjonsson, one of the main figures profiled in Amir Bar-Lev's engrossing and sobering documentary, was already a celebrated climber when he returned to K2, the world's second-highest peak after Mount Everest. He had scaled it in summertime. Now, four years later, Sigurjonsson aimed to scale it in winter.

That's a feat no climber had ever achieved on what one expert calls a “savage mountain.” But that winter in 2021, as Pakistan eased pandemic-era border restrictions, dozens of climbers saw a chance to achieve that “last first” in extreme climbing.

Ultimately, 10 would make the summit. But Bar-Lev's film is far from the usual inspiring look at how determination and grit resulted in a triumph of spirit and body. It's a movie that instead looks at the cynical opportunism that has led to a dangerous — and in this case, utterly catastrophic — commercialization of extreme climbing.

That there were deaths on the 2021 climb is well-documented. But Bar-Lev, who has pieced together some extraordinarily intimate footage (he himself did not shoot on site), chooses to assume the viewer doesn't know, keeping the final tragedy a mystery until the end.

We go back two months, with Sigurjonsson saying an emotional goodbye to Moey and their six children as he departs Iceland on his dream mission.

Once at K2 base camp, Sigurjonsson bonds with his team: noted Pakistani climber Ali Sadpara and his son, Sajid. The trio starts the slow process of acclimating to the mountain air and preparing for the ordeal ahead.

Then the Nepali team arrives. Their star, Nims-dai Purja, is on his own mission: making history for his nation. Historically, climbers from Nepal have been crucial in helping Westerners reach climbing greatness, with no glory for themselves. So, though Purja gives Ali a big hug upon arrival, there are sharp egos at stake and nationalist pride.

“Nimsdai,” one climber says, “was there to win it.” And he did — though his team seemingly betrayed the others to do it, setting off alone one morning despite an agreement with Sigurjonsson and the Sadparas to summit together.

Not long after, an experienced climber dies in a fall. Now, there's talk of everyone going home. But things get complicated. Pakistani officials arrive for a visit and make it clear the country is counting on their two countrymen to show they can match the Nepalis.

Meanwhile, the true villain of the tale — the travel company Seven Summit Treks — has brought a group of fee-paying clients, many woefully inexperienced. And ill-equipped: When they reach Camp Three, from where climbers make the final push to the summit, they lack tents and food to survive the night.

So they plead their way into the tents of more experienced climbers, making it impossible for them to get any rest or prepare properly.

The next day, only three climbers make a final push to the summit.

Such personal moments are key to keeping the film moving. And they show how the risks of climbing K2 in winter extend far beyond falling rocks, avalanches, killer storms and deathly cold.

They include human qualities like jealousy, competitiveness and ego.

As one climber says: "Mountaineering is not only a discovery of the mountain — it's a discovery of yourself."

But for us, it's also uncomfortable to be so close to such tragedy.

REVIEW 'SCHOOL GIRLS; OR, THE AFRICAN MEAN GIRLS PLAY' ON BROADWAY

A profoundly optimistic celebration of girlhood

By Chris Jones CHICAGO TRIBUNE

NEW YORK — Sometimes you need to see two different productions of a show to understand the value of a truly inspiring stage director who can take a narratively predictable script and turn it into a total blast.

Such was the case for me with “School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play,” a cumbersome titled moral comedy from Jocelyn Bioh that the director Whitney White has transformed into a profoundly optimistic Broadway celebration of girlhood.

The show now possesses a spirit so exuberant as to enthrall for its joyous 80 minutes of running time.

“School Girls” invites comparison with “John Proctor is the Villain,” another recent Broadway play set in a classroom, but this new one not only is a celebration of the importance of great teachers; it celebrates girlhood in all its complexity while also leaving you feeling optimistic about the world. That’s even though the plot has something in common with Tina Fey’s “Mean Girls,” a potent two words that also make it into the title (lamentably, in my view).

Days at the Aburi Girls Boarding School in 1986 are disrupted by the pending arrival of a scout (played by Patina Miller) looking for that year's Miss Ghana in a global beauty contest modeled on such cultural detritus as Miss Universe and Miss World. This throws all the girls into a spiral, given that it offers both the chance to represent their country on the global stage and gain a personal ticket to fame and fortune, or so they believe.

But the girls have already established their own

hierarchy. The meanie queen bee Paulina (Denée Benton), an ambitious scholarship student, considers her selection her right and just deserts, and her court of acolytes falls into line. But Paulina's big plans are upended by the arrival at the school of Ericka (Jasmine Amy Rogers), a light-skinned Black girl from America with a Ghanaian father and a white mother back in Ohio. The scout, herself an alum of the contest, sees Ericka as the best way for Ghana to get attention, and the tables begin to turn on Paulina to the chagrin of the caring if pragmatic headmistress, Francis (Heather Alicia Simms).

Anyone who goes regularly to the theater will know after about 10 minutes that this play will soon be making the point that beauty contests are not the best way for smart, young African girls to judge themselves, and will want these characters to learn that truth. That said, Bioh is far from a heavy-handed writer and these girls of her imagination (and, I suspect, of her experience) are penned with such affection and understanding that they form the most entertaining and veracious of ensembles.

Casting adult actors as credible teens is never easy in the theater, but White not only found a company willing and able to get inside the skins of girls at a school in Ghana in the 1980s, but

one that seems to love their characters so much as to be determined to carry their spirits across time and place into the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre. And because these actors are all so strong and the direction is so affirmative, the comedy and heart-break in the writing pop off the stage right into your lap.

Anyone who saw “Boop! The Musical” knows all about the vocal chops of Rogers. By casting her in a play that has a baked-in performance, White cleverly uses her massive talent to explore the complexity of what it’s like to be a teenager — or, heck, an adult — and find yourself blown away by gifts of your competition, forcing you to realize that when you look out at most things in the world, you likely are about to discover there are people better than you at almost everything.

I've long been of the view that "Wicked" was a hit because we all see ourselves as either the blond girl (popular or beautiful in the conventional way but with problems unseen by others) or the green girl (an outsider yearning for acceptance), and the two leading characters of "School Girls" absolutely divide along those schematic lines. Bioh, though, is a smart enough writer to make us believe that Ericka, with beauty and a huge voice, would be far happier if she did not stand out from her new friends. And that Paulina just needs someone to believe in her.

That's a testament to this director, the two lead performers, and also to the rest of this knockout ensemble, made up of Lucia Aramu, Erin Morton, Nia Otchere-Sarfo and Jordan Rice, all playing girls with personalities and intelligence that perk up your spirits, help you better appreciate the vitality of African girls, and realize your global duty to help them shine.

Palpable chemistry of cast proves irresistible

Rovère reprises mentor role in long-awaited ‘Call My Agent!’ movie

By Vivian Manning-Schaffel THE NEW YORK TIMES

Chances are, you've become acquainted over the past six years with Liliane Rovère through her role as Arlette Azémar on "Call My Agent!" the French-language, English-subtitled, four-season series that streamed on Netflix in 2021. Or perhaps you know the French actor as Héloise, Sylvie's mother, a man-eating doyenne of the nightlife, on another Netflix series, "Emily in Paris."

At 93, Rovère — whose mussed, curly brown bobbed hair as Arlette on the show is now silver and blown out in the film — remains a stealth scene-stealer onscreen, with her droll wit and insouciant wink. She is more amiable than her character, as demonstrated while discussing her latest project, “Call My Agent! The Movie,” now streaming on Netflix.

The film is a much-awaited new chapter of the series, which became a favorite binge watch in the United States during the pandemic.

Although she is a seasoned actor, it wasn't until "Call My Agent!" that many American viewers were introduced to Rovère. This might explain why she was humbly mystified to be considered profile material, a sentiment she expressed in a deep, smoky rasp. Almost immediately, she offered a polite apology for her English, which she honed in New York City during a two-year relationship with jazz legend Chet Baker in her 20s — one of the many real-life experiences Fanny Herrero, the show's creator, used to shape Arlette's backstory.

In "Call My Agent! The

Movie," Arlette, a font of old film industry stories and a founding partner of ASK, the powerhouse entertainment agency that's now defunct, is retired from the business. But she can't retire from acting as a straight-shooting, world-wise matriarch to the former agents. We first encounter her tending to a former superagent, the hotheaded Andréa (Camille Cottin), who is losing her lead actor only days before shooting her first film.

A smattering of English dialogue, and cameos from American stars George Clooney and Eva Longoria, should accommodate the film's trans-Atlantic audience.

"The film is hip," said Rovère, with pride. "If you have a good script, you have 50% of the film."

This is one reason she decided to revisit the role

—but not the only one. She couldn't resist the cast's palpable chemistry. "We were very lucky to be a group that got along," Rovère said. "We're good friends."

Rovère recognizes how rare this is, having played every kind of role, from coquette to grandmother, during her six-decade career in French theater, TV and film. Also unique is the collaborative relationship she shares with Herrero.

"Liliane hates taking the easy way out," Herrero said. "She always shows up with her annotated script, and together we look for the exact right word, or the reaction that could only belong to Arlette."

Another of Rovère's qualities that Herrero finds "extraordinary" is her face. "This beauty I never tire of, made of strength, gentleness and mischief," said Herrero, adding "a whole world before she has even

said a word."

Indeed, having spent nine decades on this Earth has provided Rovère with quite a lifetime of experiences.

Liliane Rovère, seen July 21 in Paris, plays Arlette Azémar, a world-wise matriarch to ASK's former employees, in "Call My Agent! The Movie." LUCIE CIPOLLA/THE NEW YORK TIMES

Born Liliane Cukier in Paris in 1933, she lights up when recalling how “Blanche Neige,” the 1937 version of “Snow White,” introduced her to the magic of cinema. She would drag her mother to the movies, reenacting scenes at home, though, she said, she was too shy to declare her aspirations to become a film actor.

When Germany invaded northern France in 1940, Rovère's Jewish family fled south. "I wore the yellow star," she said. Her surname was changed from Cukier to Aubert, and she was hidden by Dominican nuns for two years.

In 1954, her parents sent Rovère, then 21, to live with an uncle in New York, when she met Baker, with whom she had a two-year relationship. After returning to her home in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, she washed dishes in a jazz club to make ends meet.

“I managed,” she said about that period in her life. “I was an honest girl. I was never interested in money and success.”

Acting wasn't her purview until, at 23, Rovère's mother offered to pay for lessons at Cours Simon, a prestigious drama school. She began in theater, and eventually was cast in film and TV shows.

"In my first film," referring to "Portrait of Marianne," in 1971, "I was awful," she said, laughing. But Rovère found her footing with auteur Bertrand Blier in the 1970s, and, later, in Bertrand Tavernier's jazz-centered American film "Round Midnight" (1986), and Emanuele Finkiel's "Voyages" (1999), about the Holocaust.

But roles came and went, and, she said. "There were a lot of times I had no work. But I never shifted."

For a person who seems forthcoming with her personal history by way of her fictional alter ego, there are some anecdotes she will share only on her terms. Questions about her marriage to Gilbert Rovère, a jazz bassist known as Bibi, are rerouted to “Les Folles Vie de Lili,” the 2019 memoir she wrote at her daughter’s behest. Perhaps Arlette offers clues: A

monologue at the end of "Call My Agent! The Movie" reveals how Arlette was the motivating factor behind Andréa's film — and the ASK agency — all along.

"I never anticipated that I would have played out of my life," Rovère said about Arlette. "I never have spoken about it with anybody. People who know me, know me from the day they met me."

But as similar as the two may be, they do have their differences: Unlike Arlette, Rovère can't imagine retiring. In fact, she still has

parts she'd love to tackle, something along the lines of Constance Trentham, Maggie Smith's role in "Gosford Park." As a lifelong working actor gaining international recognition in her 80s and 90s, Rovère appreciates that success is relative and can be a long game.

"It's a great happiness to make a living with something you love, but it's difficult," she said. "You have to be patient. You have to fight. The world could go around without me, I'm sure. But this is what I like to do, and I still love to play."

Creator always envisioned Pugh as lead

Cast excited to bring Kazan's vision of Cathy's story to life

By Yvonne Villarreal LOS ANGELES TIMES

Hollywood is filled with book-to-screen adaptations that have ignited grumbling and spirited debates. Even before its release, Zoe Kazan's interpretation of John Steinbeck's sprawling 1952 masterwork, "East of Eden," roused passionate opinions from loyalists of the text on social media.

Much of the discourse surrounds Kazan's creative choice in how to portray the book's infamous antagonist, Cathy Ames, in Netflix's seven-episode limited series, which was recently released.

Steinbeck's multigenerational saga ruminates on family, the power of choice and the nature of good and evil — deeply exploring the biblical stories of Cain and Abel and the fall of Adam and Eve — through the intertwined destinies of two families, the Trasks and the Hamiltons. Cathy (later known as Kate) functions as a chilling, destructive force in the saga.

Kazan pared down much of the Hamilton family's story for the show and centered Cathy (Florence Pugh), whose arrival alters the lives of the Trask brothers, Adam (Christopher Abbott) and Charles (Mike Faist). In doing so, Kazan dared to humanize the character who has been considered one of literature's most definitive symbols of pure evil, described by Steinbeck to be a "psychic monster" born without a conscience or kindness.

"I'm trying to protect my mental health by not being too much online," Kazan said in a video call from London on a recent weekday. "I do think it is not surprising to me that this character brings up a lot of strong feelings for people

... I'm excited to see what people think once they actually see what we have made and aren't just anticipating something."

When Kazan, an actor who has expanded her creative footprint behind the camera, first pitched the series in 2019 and was asked about which actor she envisioned as Cathy, she replied: "I have one." She had seen Pugh in "Midsommar," "Lady Macbeth" and "Little Women," marveling at how the actor's ultra femininity lived alongside her masculine energy.

"The range on that girl ... I was like, if anybody can do that, they can play Cathy," Kazan says. "It allowed me to write Cathy as complicated and mysterious (as I wanted) and with so much shadow and light."

When it came to Adam and Charles, Kazan knew Abbott and Faist could depict the psychological nuance beyond the binaries of the nature versus nurture debate: “I wanted an Adam where you felt what his true nature was and the nature that his father had pushed him into ... and I knew we needed that in Charles as well.”

Adapting a classic is hardly a simple endeavor, particularly one that has been done before. That Kazan would choose “East of Eden,” which unpacks legacy and generational shadows is apt: Her grandfather, Elia Kazan, famously directed the 1955 film version starring James Dean. The actors of the Netflix series are eager for viewers to see her vision come to life. This interview with Pugh, Abbott and Faist has been edited for clarity and length.

Q: When did you first encounter the book? Faist: My first encounter with the story was the James Dean, Elia Kazan film. That was a movie that

I watched, especially when I first moved to New York and wanted to be an actor. It wasn't until Zoe and Florence asked if I'd be interested in doing this, that I picked up the book. Pugh: I want to say maybe my early 20s, I read the book. I only watched the movie recently to prepare myself for these kind of conversations. I'm rereading the book now while we're heading into press, just so I can like fine-tune what I thought I knew ... there's so much love that's being breathed into every single sentence of every chapter (in this adaptation), and that is solely down to Zoe's fantastic brain and her ability to want to dig deeper.

Abbott: A lot of my favorite books I've picked up and put down numerous times before actually plowing through it — that was the case here until Zoe approached me about doing it. I was like, “Well, this is a perfect excuse to finally (finish).”

Q: This adaptation lit up social media early on for centering Cathy. Florence, how do you see her? P: I guess I'm still trying to figure out how to word it without totally pissing people off. I love finding characters that people automatically think are villains and trying to find a way for you to love them — it's my favorite thing to do.

I read these episodes, and I was listening to Zoe and how she was wanting this to come from Cathy's perspective, how Cathy was her hero and how she's just been championing Cathy ever since she first read the book — that was so … exciting to know that we're not gonna just point the finger and say that she's evil. It is my job to do my skills as good as possible so that I can argue in defense of them. I believe that I can argue for her, which is terrifying but also really cool. I care for her deeply. I understand where she went and why. Does she do some terrible things? Absolutely. Is she a product of the situation that she grew up in? Totally. You can't get raped as a child and be totally fine for the rest of your life.

Q: Mike, what were you interested in excavating with Charles, this Cain archetype who's tormented by rejection and jealousy? F: What is amazing about this story is — and it's the entire through line of the entire novel — is this idea of timshel. What happens in a person's life, and the burdens that they carry, then the choices they make, and every single moment as they continue to live it. Charles jumped out at me. There was just something about him that I was very drawn to — and along with that pull, there's this feeling of dread, where you say, "Oh God, I can't believe that I'm about to jump in and do this thing." You end up surrendering yourself to it. It is scary and deeply exciting.

Q: When Zoe approached you, Chris, to play Adam, you questioned whether she actually meant for you to be Charles? A: I'm just used to being typecast, so I thought she made a mistake. Zoe's mentioned this idea of masculine and feminine energy — what one presents and what one actually holds, and the old switch-eroos of that. The very first email, I was like, "Oh, are you sure?" But I was excited to play with all the nuance of and the layers of what this is. I had seen the movie before, and it (covers) only the last 100 or so pages. It's really gratifying to play a part where you get to see someone's whole life and how this guy goes from being this wanderer, drifter to this to stoic, depressed, rigid older man.

Q: Chris, you have the daunting task of, in the closing moments of the series, delivering the word that's the thrust of the whole story — timshel. A: I think that was the last scene I shot. I can't say I was being lazy, but the character had a stroke so he was laying there. You just gotta listen (in a moment like that). Hoon (Lee, who plays Lee) is reading from the Bible. You take in the room. I nailed it in one. (Pugh and Faist laugh.)

Q: People have deep feelings about "East of Eden." And it seems to have had a real resurgence recently, even outside of curiosity about this adaptation. Why do you think that is? A: That's a big, existential (thing to think about). There's a ton of themes in the book that are relevant: displacement, family, love. The themes in the book aren't specific to the time period. All great works are that.

TV REVIEW

Delicate tale of homophobia, violence showcases Cumming

Shakeel Kimotho, from left, Iz Hesketh, Alan Cumming and Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo star in "Tip Toe." STARZ

By Robert Lloyd LOS ANGELES TIMES

“Tip Toe,” a fine new drama from Russell T Davies on Starz, begins at the end, with Leo Struther (Alan Cumming, phenomenally good), a gay Manchester bar owner, hanging dead from a streetlight outside his house, as a woman screams and his neighbor Clive Goss (David Morrissey) stands breathing heavily on his porch. Then, as so many series do nowadays, it goes back in time – 10 days here – to tell the tale that got them there.

And so you are prepared from the beginning for tragedy, though not everything that happens in its five episodes will be tragic — some of what we see will be sweet and even celebratory

— and one might forget for a moment where this is all heading, and even believe that what we've already seen will turn out differently.

The series sets off in a comparatively light mood. Chasing a one-night stand who stole his laptop, Leo finds himself locked out of his house and, dressed only in his underwear, goes next door to ask if he can borrow a phone to call his friend Stephanie (Elizabeth Berrington) to bring him a spare key. Here we meet the Goss family, Clive, an out-of-work electrician; his wife, Marie (Pooky Quesnel), who doesn't like Clive; 16-year-old son George (Jackson Connor), gay and closeted; and 25-year-old son Saul (Joseph Evans), an easygoing hunk who lives at home, secretly makes money on OnlyFans and accepts everyone for who they are.

Leo and the Gosses have been living amica-bly at arm's length for 14 years, though their lives are about to become closely entwined, with disastrous results.

In an act of something like willful, somewhat disturbing friendliness, or a desire not to have to deal with Leo the next time he's locked out, Clive makes a copy of Leo's key and installs a lock box by his door. (By the Chekhov's gun rule, a key copied in Episode 1 is bound to be turned in a lock in whatever later act Davies deems advantageous.) Then, Leo gives Clive work at his bar.

Leo's bar, Spit and Polish, sits on Canal Street in Manchester's long-established "gay village." It's a safe space for his employees and regulars. Zee (Iz Hesketh) has been sleeping hidden in the bar, frightened of new flatmates since coming out as a trans woman, and Melba (Paul Rhys, brilliant), a former drag performer, holds down the end of the bar like Norm from "Cheers" and carries a torch for Leo.

Things will go generally downhill from here, in a narrative of escalating misunderstanding — not in the sense of an innocent mistake, of simply getting the wrong end of the stick (though that's part of it), but as a contemporary habit of mind, blinkered, closed to facts but open to conspiracies.

Directed by Peter Hoar, it's a rough watch, yet beautifully wrought and delicately performed, inspiring and depressing, hopeless and hopeful. Davies has points to make — hanging your protagonist is not subtle — but his dialogue carries a lot of weight lightly; long conversations ebb and flow and rise and fall like compressed playlets. If there is something schematic about the arc, the characters within it, Clive as much as Leo are completely human. They stand for something bigger than themselves, but they also stand for themselves.

"Tip Toe" has been crafted for an age of surging homophobia and anti-gay violence. "The president of America has given these men permission to attack us," says Melba, as he sits with Leo late one night by the canal. The series' dark prophet, he gives it its title.

"It's a storm, it's a tide, it's a great big tsunami. We're in the middle of it right now

... If you'd asked me in 1996 what do you think 2026 will be like, I'd have said 'glory days' ... But they tricked us, didn't they? They let us all come out, so now we're standing in the open ready for them to shoot us down. I used to walk into a room and just go, 'Ta-da!' Now I tip toe, just in case."

If October 9 is your birthday: Expect fewer problems and more help from the Universe in the remainder of the year than you've had thus far. Near the end of your birthday month, a belief could become highlighted — either something new that wants your buy-in,

or something existing that it may be time to question. Aries (March 21-April 19): The weekend offers decent days, the next positive business day is Wednesday of next week. Strategize accordingly.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): While you may want to make things happen today or at least tidy up loose ends, the Universe might not be as cooperative as you'd like.

Gemini (May 21-June 20): While today isn't great for beginning anything, it's a fine day for works in progress, and you could be more inspired than you might expect.

Cancer (June 21-July 22): Mind and heart could meet at home today; new insights could bear fruit if you wait to implement them at least until tomorrow. Stay tuned to your intuition, don't dismiss any new ideas that arise.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Any financial ideas should be tabled until closer to mid-month when stars could provide a significantly more solid foundation for success.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): While your head may seem clear, anyone else who's part of a financial collab or joint venture could seem lost in the weeds.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You could be quite self-oriented today — use the focus to understand more about yourself, especially how you tend to be perceived by others.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Your shadow contains more than negative feelings — it's where some of your greatest gifts could also be hidden. The next couple of days offer a rare opportunity to go within and unearth significant treasures.

opportunity to go within and unlear in significant treasures. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Friendship and group associations remain a fairly central theme for another couple of weeks. Your social network is one of your prime influences; be sure your values and objectives are in alignment.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Career could be of prime interest, and insights could continue to flow. It's not a day to initiate any significant actions, though.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Reach for higher knowledge to expand your awareness, but it might not be the best time to try to share insights, the peanut gallery isn't likely receptive now. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Any inner resistance to a plan proposed to you should be acknowledged and listened to now. Even if someone has the best motivations, their advice could be off under today's poor stars.

Bridge

Both vulnerable, South deals

Grand Avenue By Mike Thompson

Readers of today's deal might be shaking their heads. How could the North hand, with one queen and one jack, be suggesting a slam? This deal is from a recent competition in Europe, where new bidding ideas are constantly being

The bidding:

South	West	North	East
2♣	Pass	2♥*	Pass
2NT	Pass	4♣**	Pass
4♦	Pass	4♠	Pass

*0-3 points, no king **diamonds, slam interest Opening lead: Eight of ♣

explored. The North hand had already denied more than three high-card points or any card as high as a king. Within that context, the North hand does have serious slam potential. South bid four diamonds to see what else partner could offer. When North cuebid his spade control, South was happy to bid a slam.

This freak deal saw many different auctions and only two pairs reached the slam. One went down.

Berrak Erkan, from Turkey, showed the proper technique. He captured the opening club lead with his ace, cashed the ace of spades, and ruffed a spade in dummy. He then led the nine of diamonds from dummy and played low from his hand when East played the eight. This guaranteed no more than one diamond loser on any lie of the suit. Had East discarded on the first diamond, Erkan would have taken his ace and led back toward the queen. Well done all around!
