How 6 were rescued from elevator jam CFD spokesman: ‘We don’t come down like Batman’ By Hannah Leone and Rosemary Sobol Chicago Tribune

Firefighters had a pretty good idea of how they would rescue six people trapped in an elevator at the former John Hancock Center early Friday. But first, they had to find the elevator. The not-so-express elevator was stuck somewhere between the 95th floor and the lobby of Chicago’s fourth-tallest building, one of several cables holding it having broken. It was in a “blind shaft” with no openings firefighters could use to inspect it or reach the trapped — among them tourists from Mexico who had taken it from the Signature Room shortly after midnight. The passengers, not knowing which of the 95 floors they had landed on, would wait nearly three hours for the rescue. Two of them were Northwestern University law students who had just ridden up to the Signature Lounge for the first time and were turned away because it was a few minutes past closing time. On the return trip, the elevator CHRIS SWEDA/CHICAGO TRIBUNE PHOTOS started descending faster than they were Machinists Tom Peters, left, and Michael Warchol prepare one of the CTA Holiday Train cars in the Skokie shop on Thursday. expecting, said one student, who didn’t want her name used for privacy reasons. “It was really bumpy — it felt like a flight into Chicago,” she said.

Public pension fiasco John B. Judis, The New York Times The Economist Unless you have chosen to isolate yourself from all Illi- nois fiscal news, you are starting to hear with increased frequency that the cost of operating the government em- EDITORIAL CARTOON ployee pension plans run by Illinois and its local govern- ments is consuming larger and larger chunks of your taxes. That’s not counting the escalating everyday costs of police, fire, schools, roads, etc. The problem with reform is that the pension plan par- ticipants hold a strong hand at the ballot box. The Illinois Department of Insurance issues a report every two years that accumulates data on the plans. The last one was is- sued in 2017. It reported 591,687 plan participants in 671 pension plans throughout Illinois. It seems fair to estimate that each plan participant has at least a spouse or one other dependent who shares his or her concern to keep things just as they are. So, let’s say there are at least 1.2 million voters who have a keen interest in protecting those retire- ments. You may think 1.2 million pension-focused voters can’t be that powerful. Think again. They include politicians and judges. Many others are unionized, and therefore well organized. They all donate copiously to political cam- paigns and diligently work for pension-friendly candi- dates. No organized voter bloc in Illinois can match this group’s size, intensity and clout. And when you consider that many of the remaining estimated 6.8 million regis- tered Illinois voters don’t bother to vote or don’t study the issues and candidates when they do, the power of this bloc is apparent. So don’t expect any rational reform. Expect contin- uously increasing taxes, bond sales dedicated to pensions and decreased government spending for things like health care and housing for the poor, infrastructure upkeep and other critical services as government pension costs con- sume more and more general revenues, until the can no longer can be kicked. — Peter Quilici, Skokie MIKE LUCKOVICH/ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION Chicago Tribune | Section 1 | Saturday, November 17, 2018 9 AE+ ARTS+ENTERTAINMENT

South asked and found out that his opponents lead the middle Animal Crackers By Mike Osbun card from three low cards. East would not have played the eight without the queen, jack, and 10.

South West North East The queen of 1♦ Pass 1♥ 1♠ hearts was ducked, 1NT Pass 3NT All pass but East won the heart continuation Opening lead: Seven of ♠ with the ace and led the queen of spades to declarer’s king. South crossed to dummy with the ace of clubs and cashed the two high hearts. He discarded two diamonds as East parted with a low diamond. South was hoping that West started with three clubs. A club could then Prickly City By Scott Stantis be conceded to West and declarer would have his ninth trick in clubs. That was not possible when East showed out on a club to the king. East, however, discarded a spade, so it was now safe to throw East in with a spade and force him to lead from his king of diamonds in the end. Note that this line of play would not have been possible if South had “held up” in spades. It was important for South to win the first two rounds of spades, retaining the small spade in his hand. It would not have helped East to discard another diamond, as then a diamond to the ace would have assured the contract no matter who held the king.

BUCKS 123, BULLS 104 Bulls’ 2nd-half collapse is epic Give up 22-point lead by getting outscored 78-41 after halftime By K.C. Johnson Chicago Tribune

MILWAUKEE — The Bulls are shorthanded and strug- gling. But some losses tran- scend the norm. Some losses reflect poorly on the entire organization and could lead to the blame game. Friday night at Fiserv Forum marked such a loss. The Bulls tied a franchise record for largest deficit in a quarter, getting outscored 46- 17 in a devastating third-quar- ter collapse in their 123-104 loss to the Bucks. Their 78-41 second-half deficit set a new franchise mark for futility. The quarter featured bad shot selection that led to 6- for-23 shooting, including 1- for-10 from 3-point range, in- different defense that allowed a Khris Middleton drive all the way down the lane untouched and five turnovers.

WEEK 11 PICKS Chiefs-Rams a delicious ‘MNF’ game By Rich Campbell and Dan Wiederer Chicago Tribune

BULLS KINGS 2, BLACKHAWKS 1 (SHOOTOUT) 2nd-half collapse is epic in its scope

Bulls, from Page 1 the high-flying Nuggets at the United Center. A similar response played out to form as the Bulls posted their highest-scoring first half of the season, leading 63-45 while shooting 11-for-17 from 3-point range. Justin Holiday knocked down all six 3-point attempts. By the third quarter, the hot shooting cooled. The movement stopped. Zach LaVine finished 6-for-20 for 15 points. Playing against his former team, Jabari Parker scored 15 first-quarter points — and finished with a team-high 21 while drawing a fourth-quarter tech- nical. It’s the second straight game Parker has cooled after a hot start. “It’s unacceptable for us to have a 20-point lead and blow it that fast,” LaVine said. “It just sucks. We’re not getting matched up on defense. We’re making mental errors.” Eric Bledsoe's 25 points led the Bucks, while Giannis Antetokounmpo added 23 points and 13 rebounds. “We lost them in transition on a few possessions,” coach Fred Hoiberg said. “And then we tried to get it all back on the other end. When they went on a run, we tried to get it back individually.” Wendell Carter Jr. raised some eye- brows after Wednesday’s road loss by talking about players going their sepa- rate ways on the court when adversity hits. The veteran Holiday disagreed with the rookie’s take. “I don’t necessarily feel like we ever actually split apart. I think we get down on ourselves because we want to do so well and want to win. We’re not really a group of guys who separate in the bad sense,” Holiday said. “Sometimes, we get down and do things not at the highest level of energy or think so much that you’re taking yourself out of the game. But I don’t think it’s to the point where we point fingers and say, ‘Forget you.’ ”

Layups: Hoiberg reiterated that CHRIS SWEDA/CHICAGO TRIBUNE Markkanen, who has to play because of a Kings winger Dustin Brown battles Blackhawks defenseman Duncan Keith (2) along the boards in the second period of Friday’s game. left elbow injury, will practice with the Windy City Bulls when he’s cleared for contact in the next one to two weeks. “Similar to what Zach did a year ago, Hawks fall in shootout who was able to have two-hour prac- tices,” Hoiberg said of LaVine’s return from left ACL rehab. … The Bucks played Blackhawks, from Page 1 remaining in the second period.

Chicago Tribune | Chicago Sports | Section 2 | Saturday, November 17, 2018 9 eNEWSPAPER BONUS COVERAGE Rams’ Donald an outlier: ‘285 pounds of dynamite’

By Adam Kilgore The Washington Post

In 2015, shortly after Dave Andrews became the University of Pittsburgh strength coach, Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald, a Pitt alum, asked if he would work with him during the offseason. “Obviously, we’ve got the best player in the world, and he comes back to train in the room,” An- drews said. “Why wouldn’t I serve him?” Andrews played tight end on Ohio State’s 2002 national title team, and he has trained about 80 NFL players, plus a handful of NBA players. He is not easily stunned by athletic outliers. He has lived adult life surrounded by them. As part of their routine, An- drews would offer Donald manual resistance as opposed to Donald using a machine or weights. An- drews had seen other athletes bench press or squat as much as Donald. He has never seen any- thing like Donald’s muscles re- sponding to a force exerted on them. In those drills, Andrews was stunned. “He’s 285 pounds of dynamite,” Andrews said. “He’s absolutely not human. The electric switch is different with that guy.” Monday night in Los Angeles, the Rams will face the Chiefs in a showdown that both exemplifies the NFL’s offense-mad present and hints at the sport’s scoring- crazed future. Patrick Mahomes’ right arm is part magic, part Howitzer. Tyreek Hill is so fast he makes you wonder if the TV is broken. Todd Gurley can punish tacklers, sprint past them or leap over them. Coaches Andy Reid and Sean McVay have expanded and redefined professional foot- ball playbooks. Amid that sparkling firepower, the most overriding force on the field will occupy a paradoxical space: He will be playing defense. In the NFL, nobody is better at what they do than Donald. He is a dominant defender in a league driven by offense, a 6-footer in the territory of giants, a questioned prospect who became an all-timer. In the NFL, Donald is the ultimate outlier. Donald is the reigning NFL defensive player of the year, and only injury or the best six games of Khalil Mack’s career will prevent him from repeating. He leads the NFL with 12.5 sacks. He has pressured quarterbacks 67 times, 12 more than any other player. Pro Football Focus rates Donald as the NFL’s best pass rusher and third- best run stopper, regardless of position. Numbers, really, cannot do Donald justice. In a league of athletic marvels trained and cali- brated for maximum perform- ance, Donald stands apart. His shoulders resemble a relief map of Colorado. Blocking him is like trying to halt a bowling ball affixed with chain saws. At the NFL Combine, he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.68 seconds — slow but not unheard of for a wide receiver, implausible for a tackle. He is quick enough to knife through double teams, powerful enough to make the idea of one lineman stopping him comical and strong enough to fling quarterbacks to the ground the way most people chuck a candy wrapper in the trash can. “Have you ever seen Rocky IV?” asked Mike Waufle, the Rams’ defensive line coach for Donald’s first three seasons. “When the Russian was training, they had that computerized device that he punched. The force that was there, the strength times speed of his punch, it registered really, really high. That’s Aaron Donald’s body, OK? He has power beyond your wildest dreams.” The offseason made clear the value of a player like Donald. As offense evolves, passes are thrown faster, and the time quarterbacks spend vulnerable in the pocket shrinks. Even the best outside pass rushers often can’t reach quarter- backs in time to sack or even disrupt them. The antidote to the future of offenses looks like Don- ald, an interior lineman who can maraud into backfields in less than JOHN CORDES/AP two seconds, taking the most Rams defensive end Aaron Donald is having a Defensive Player of the Year-caliber season as he cements his status as the league’s top pass rusher. direct line to the quarterback.

because his stature fooled almost half the NFL — including the Rams. ■■■ In his final college season, Donald totaled 28.5 tackles for loss, claimed the Bronko Nagurski Award as the country’s best defen- sive player and left those close to him in awe. “I was so grateful our paths crossed,” said Paul Chryst, Donald’s head coach at Pitt for two seasons. “He’s one of those guys, truly, every day you walked away appreciative and enjoying your time with him.” Still, Donald was not consid- ered an elite prospect. He is listed at an even 6 feet tall, and he played his senior season at Pitt at about 280 pounds — puny for an NFL interior defensive lineman. Teams who played 3-4 base defense and sought a space-clogging nose tackle believed they had no use for Donald. Initially, Waufle may have pos- sessed the same notion. A former Marine who started coaching in 1979, Waufle had coached NFL defensive linemen since 1998. He developed an abiding belief in the importance of size. As he started evaluating prospects before the 2014 draft, Waufle studied Donald and saw an exception. “In my years in the NFL and even college football prior to that, he was the best player I’d ever seen on film in college football in that position,” Waufle said. “If we get a chance to get this guy, I felt like he was better than (Jadeveon) Clowney. That’s the way I went about representing. The scouts and those guys felt like he was too small and didn’t give him the highest grade.” Teams shared that outlook, Donald knew. He attend the Sen- ior Bowl to prove himself, and NFL executives realized the folly of overlooking him. “He definitely came into that week on the low side, as maybe a second-round consideration,” then-Senior Bowl director Phil Savage said. “By the time he left Mobile, he was clearly top half of the first round, if not top 10. In hindsight, it was somewhat of a no-brainer he should have been top 10. He stood out individually with his athleticism, his quickness, his burst, his explosion. He domi- nated the one-on-ones. He was essentially unblockable. He was the buzz from beginning to end.” ALEX GALLARDO/AP Inside Rams headquarters, Aaron Donald, who remains one of the NFL’s most disruptive forces on defense, goes for the ball after a fumble by the Seahawks’ Russell Wilson. Waufle continued his campaign for Donald. The Rams held the “I was all cranked up,” Waufle second and 13th picks in the first said. “I couldn’t believe we got round. him.” Even though the Rams already The Rams’ elation has not had a loaded defensive line, Wau- dissipated since.
