Local history still in the making Survey will identify historic buildings within Downers Grove By Jonathan Samples Bugle Reporter

The Tivoli Theater, constructed in 1928, sits one block east of downtownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s major thoroughfare and has a special place in the early history of Chicago cinema. Head south four blocks, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll run right into the Lincoln Center, a structure that housed the Lincoln School between 1867 and 1974. Walk just a couple blocks west, and the Drew House, built in 1888, offers onlookers an early example of Gothic Revival architecture. This list is just a small sample of the many identified historic structures scattered throughout Downers Grove, and the village is in the process of uncovering those properties that have been lost over the years. With the help of The Lakota See SURVEY page 5

The Blodgett House, home to the Downers Grove Park District Museum, was built in 1892 and is an example of Victorian architecture. It is one of the oldest remaining homes in the village.

‘The older we get, the better we were’ Hockey league fills generation gap By Robin Ambrosia Staff Reporter

In 1972, a rag-tag group of fathers started showing up on Sunday mornings with borrowed equipment and no skating ability. That year, Jim Miceli, Tom Kowalkowski, Greg Lopatka and Frank Presecky met while watching their sons play youth

hockey at the Downers Grove Ice Arena. “We kept talking about playing ourselves while watching our kids have fun playing hockey,” said Miceli, who’s referred to as ‘The King” since he started the team. “That’s it. We’re through talking about it. I rented a block of ice time and said let’s go.” The Duffers were born. During their first years,

the Duffers played organized hockey in men’s leagues but soon realized competitive hockey wasn’t the best idea. “We got in a fight during every game,” Miceli said. “We had a guy, a real gentleman in his 40’s, was pounding some 18 year-old kid who kept mouthing off to him. We didn’t want to fight, so we just started playing among ourselves.” Almost every Friday night, anywhere from 20 to 30 men ranging in age from 40 to 83 come from all over Will and DuPage counties to play non-competitive hockey at Romeoville’s Canlan Ice Arena. High school sons and daughters of Duffers are welcome to play, but anyone younger is referee for the game. Some of the younger Duffers began as referees. The Duffers have unique scoring rules. “We take the age of the oldest and youngest Duffer (not including the high school kids), then determine the medium age which during the past several years is usually about 57 thanks to Papa Joe, but now it will drop,” Presecky said. “A meaningful Duffer is over the medium age while a meaningless Duffer is

under.” Mazzarella took regular shifts leading the white team to a thrilling 3-2 meaningless win, but the meaningful score was a tie 1-1. It’s not easy to become a Duffer. You must be invited to play by a Duffer, and then play as a guest for a year, after which membership is voted on. The first stage of Duffer development is when the young Duffer is lured into a sense of athletic ability. In 1994, the Duffers added a record five “NYPDs” -- new young polite Duffers -- so the median age lowered to 40 that year.

The Friday Night skate is not the only game in town for the Duffers. Off the ice, there’s an annual family picnic, early Thanksgiving Turkey Skate, New Year’s Day family skate and Jimmy Buffet concert. Then, the retired Duffers meet every week for lunch, with the first week of each month at Tilted Kilt. Every year, they take it on the road to a city with a professional hockey team and play on their rink at least once. Sometimes, they can coerce the head coach into becoming a Duffer for the day. In 2011, the Duffer’s Hockey Club took a road trip to Pittsburgh, Penn., home of the National Hockey League Penguins. The Duffers white team recruited Penguins head coach Dan Bylsma for their side while assistant coach, Tony Granato, son a Plainfield Duffer, Don Granato, played for the red team. “We beat the white team who had Dan Bylsma,” Lopatka said. “I remember getting an assist when I flipped a nice saucer pass over Bylsma’s stick to Tommy Zagorski who scored.” The second stage of Duffer development is when the need to pass is to avoid being run down. “Our sons come on road trips when they can, but it’s a damn shame when they do, because it just means we have to behave ourselves,” Presecky said. “Speak for yourself,” Miceli said. Lopatka remembers their trip to Lake Placid in 1982 since he had just turned 40 and thought, “I was getting too old to play See DUFFERS, page 6

Loss of home-rule status places District 58 new focus on Westmont budget proposes By Jonathan Samples Staff Reporter

The recent loss of home rule status and the $2.5 million in revenue that accompanied it will factor heavily on Westmont’s 2013 budget, and village trustees are urging residents to take part in the process. Westmont Village Manager Ronald Searl announced the schedule for this year’s budget workshops during the March 28 committee of the while meeting. The first budget meeting will be held at 6 p.m. April 8 at Village Hall. The next workshop will be 9 a.m. April 13 at Village Hall and the third will be at 6 p.m. April 16 at the Westmont Police Department. The final meeting will be 9 a.m. April 20 at Village Hall. “Hopefully, we will get good public attendance to get input,” Searl said. Because of the financial strain placed on the village as a result of losing home rule status, this year’s process may involve some tough decisions. The village already cut brush pickup

“This is going to be a tough budget... I won’t sugar coat it.” Lee Fleming, Village Trustee services to cope with the budget shortfall, and other services may find their way to the cutting room floor. Trustees are seeking input from residents to help inform their understanding of what services residents will be able to live without. “I will put out an open invitation to every single member of Westmont to please come to our budget meetings,” Mayor Pro-Tem Sue Senicka said during the meeting. “This is not our budget, this is your budget. I encourage everyone to take an active interest in your community.” Senicka’s comment came in response to a misconception about the village’s recent decision to cut its brush pickup services. By encouraging residents

to take part in the process, she hopes to avoid similar misunderstandings with the new budget. Trustee Lee Fleming echoed Senicka’s comments, saying this year’s budget will be challenging without certain home rule revenues. “This is going to be a tough budget, and I suggest anyone who really wants to know what’s going on … attend these budget meetings,” he said.“You’re going to see exactly where the money goes; you’re going to understand why we’re going to have to make the decisions we’re going to make. I won’t sugar coat it.” Fleming has proposed a resolution to place a referendum on the ballot during the November 2014 election to return Westmont to home rule status. He said that there have been a number of misconceptions about home rule status and feels this current budget process will highlight the need for home rule. jsamples@buglenewspapers.com

1:1 device initiative

Technology is transforming how students learn, explore, and make connections, and District 58 is exploring a 1:1 initiative, which would put a device into the hands of every student. On March 11, the Board of Education reviewed two proposals for funding and implementing a 1:1 initiative over the course of the next three years. District 58 Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction Matt Rich shared an illustration featuring the 21st century learning and innovation skills. These skills of critical thinking, communication, collaboration and creativity all are augmented through the use of 1:1 devices, just as technology is helping to redefine how these skills are applied to See 1:1 DEVICE, page 8

SURVEY Continued from page 1 Group,a Chicago-based consulting firm, and volunteers from the Pierce Downers Heritage Alliance, the Downers Grove Community Development Department began a village-wide survey of historic buildings earlier this week. “It’s important to recognize those buildings or properties that have contributed significantly to the growth and history of the village,” said Tom Dabareiner, director of Community Development. Dabareiner said the process will involve surveyors hitting the streets and taking an inventory of homes at least 50 years old. That means homeowners may see individuals photographing houses and taking notes, but they shouldn’t be alarmed.

“They will have handouts to give, if [homeowners] are interested,”Darbareiner said.“They are looking at each house and taking pictures, noting location, type of architecture and any unique architectural additions to the structure.” One area that the survey will focus on is the Prince subdivision, which surrounds Prince Pond near Franklin Street and Linscott Avenue. Named after real estate developer E. H. Prince, the subdivision was platted in 1890. Darbareiner suspects that there are a number of homes in the area with historical significance. “There are areas within the community that are more likely to have buildings that could be eligible,” he said.“It starts with the Prince subdivision, and obviously there are buildings downtown.” Gordon Goodman, a founding

member of the Pierce Downers Heritage Alliance and its current treasurer, said the survey is important to the village’s efforts to preserve its historic structures. “This is a project that is very dear to the mission of the Pierce Downers Heritage Alliance,” he said. “We’ve been encouraging the village with all its historic preservation activities.” The organization is named after Peirce Downers, who moved here in 1832 and owned the first piece of land in the area.

After every game, the guys meet in the locker rooms to share memories that somehow get better each time and have a beer or two to get over their hockey problem. “It’s pretty cool,” Jacob Richard, 19, Romeoville, said while watching the Duffers skate. “It’s never too late to learn.” On Feb. 8, the oldest Duffer, Joe Mazzarella, of Romeoville, celebrated his 83rd birthday by lacing up his skates for his last game. Also, Frank Presecky,

75, of Lisle and Miceli, 72, were included in the celebration, since they also retired recently. “Mazzarella called to ask if I would come out for ‘one last skate’ for his birthday,” Presecky said.“I said for you, Joe, I’ll come out, otherwise I’d be going to bed right about now.” Prior to the game, Presecky’s son, Mike, of Lombard, distributed plaques to all three retiring Duffers while retiring their numbers. robin@enterprisepublications.com

1:1 DEVICE Continued from page 1 real-world challenges. In addition to learning the core subjects, technology is helping students to successfully master critical skills in the areas of life and career, information, media and technology skills, and 21st century learning. “Today’s classroom is focused on ensuring that each student develops the ability to gather, comprehend, evaluate, synthesize,

and report on information and ideas, as well as solve problems and work through an extensive range of challenges,” Director of Technology Scott Meech said. Since January, District 58 has been conducting a series of learning labs across the district to learn more about the power of technology to improve teaching and learning. By the end of the year, each building and each grade level within District 58 will have hosted at least one learning lab, which provide each student with a technology device for a unit of study. These units are taught in partnership between the classroom teacher and the district technology facilitators, assistant superintendent of curriculum and/or the director of technology. Through the learning labs, teachers have discovered that student engagement is boosted through new and authentic opportunities to create diverse, individualized products to demonstrate their understanding of concepts, to facilitate their own learning, to make connections, to dig deeply into concepts, and to extend their learning beyond the classroom. The vast amount of resources

Schools available within a split second on the devices assist teachers with meeting the needs of individual learners and enable them to quickly provide additional support, assistance or challenges as needed. Devices also assist with executive functioning skills such as task management, reminders, and calendaring, and promote a quick workflow for learning, collaborating and sharing information. Additionally, they significantly cut down on the amount of time that staff must spend on tasks such as making copies and grading, allowing them to use that time on tasks that have a direct impact on teaching and learning. The district’s proposal is for two full grade levels at each elementary building in District 58 to participate in a 1:1 program during the 2013-14 year. Each student would receive a device to use throughout their day and take home in the evenings, for use in all subject areas. The initiative would be expanded to additional grade levels during the following two years, with full implementation planned for 2015-16. In 201617, the purchasing cycle would repeat.

The overall cost would equate to approximately $708,000 annually ($400 per device for hardware and software). The funds would come from a combination of sources. These could include repurposing money from the curriculum and technology budgets, such as money that would previously have paid for textbooks; reallocating funds from elsewhere in the district budget; and charging a student fee for the devices, likely in the neighborhood of $50 per student, beginning in 2014-15. ‘’Many of our children already have devices.We’re trying to create a safe environment for them to learn and grow in,’’ Meech said. Initiatives to that end include the creation of a K-8 digital citizenship curriculum and contracting with Gaggle.com to provide each student with a unique district e-mail address, he said. Dostroct staff will research a variety of questions and bring further details to the board for discussion at a future meeting. The district already has experienced great success in utilizing technology (specifically iPads) to enhance teaching and learning.In addition to the Learning Labs, a weekend iPad take-home

program also has been in place in several of our elementary schools for the past year and a half, and Jan. 7 was the kickoff of a pilot Bring Your Own Device program at O’Neill Middle School. District 58 also has extensively increased its bandwidth to facilitate these new learning experiences. Additionally, throughout 201213, District 58 has provided every faculty member with an iPad and every classroom with an Apple TV for 2012-13, allowing teachers to explore the uniqueness of the new technology in an organized and scaffolded process. The board approved on March 11 the purchase of 65 additional flatscreen televisions so that Apple TVs can be utilized in small-group learning spaces. “Traditional materials will always have a place in our classrooms, but through technology, we are able to open up the walls of those classrooms to an amazing world of learning opportunities through technology,” Rich said. “We look forward to continuing down the path of exploring the enhanced learning opportunities that a 1:1 device program would provide to our students and staff.”

New-look Mustangs pound downstate foes By Mike Sandrolini Sports Reporter

Veteran Downers South softball coach Ron Havelka let out a laugh when asked if the 2013 edition of the Mustangs will experience some growing pains after losing eight seniors from last year’s 24-win club. Those include current NCAA Division I players Danielle Trezzo (Illinois) and Katy LaCivita (Loyola). “I don’t want to use that phrase,” he said. “We’re going to have some ups and downs like every other team does, but until we really start playing, I won’t know. After we’ve played about four or five games, I think I can probably get a pretty good handle (on) where we’re going to be.” Getting on the field has, of course, been the biggest challenge so far this spring for the Mustangs and every other team. The Mustangs had the first four games on their schedule cancelled, including a March 28 non-conference date with perennial area power Benet, which will be made up sometime in April. They did travel to Champaign Central on Saturday for games versus the host school and Mahomet-Seymour, as Havelka got the green light from Central’s athletic director to make the trip on Thursday. Central’s field was in playing condition despite the city of Champaign getting hit with a foot of snow that blanketed central Illinois March 24. The Mustangs pounded Central 22-0 and MahometSeymour 17-4. Havelka said the team has been able to practice outside only four times since he held tryouts Feb. 25. “Last year, I think we got spoiled because the weather

was so nice,” he said. “It’s just the opposite this year.” Junior Jessica Andree, who led off and played second base for the Mustangs last season, said she’s definitely grown weary of practicing indoors. “It’s been frustrating for us because everyone wants to be out on the field,” she said. “It’s a bummer, but we’re doing the best with what we have. Personally, I hate the cold, so it’s not fun.” Once the Mustangs take the field with some regularity, Andree, who hit .508 with 32 runs scored last spring, will once again be an offensive catalyst, but not from the leadoff spot. Havelka will be moving her down in in the lineup, probably in the third position.Who’ll take over for Andree at the top of the lineup? At this point, Havelka has been looking at Kristen Bialek and Kristin Lea, both freshmen and left-handed hitters. Andree also will be moving over to shortstop from second this year, but she’s played short before during the summer with her travel team, the Wasco Diamonds. “It hasn’t been that hard (to make the transition from second to short),” Andree said. “It’s a nice, easy flow.” “She’s a good athlete, and she’s able to adjust; she can make the adjustment,” Havelka said.“She’ll play anywhere you need her to. She’s that’s good of a player, and she’s a really good hitter. We’re looking for big things (from her).” The Mustangs’ 2012 lineup was more power-driven and station-to-station, but Havelka says the 2013 team possesses more speed, which he plans to use. “We have a little more overall speed, which is going to hopefully help us, and we have

Jessica Andree is moving to shortstop this season from second base and will hit in the three hole.

to manufacture runs a little bit better,” he said. “We had some boppers last year that could knock the ball around a little, but I don’t think we’re that kind of a team (this year). Hopefully, we can put the ball in play, play hard, beat things out and execute.”

The Mustangs (24-11, 10-2 in the West Suburban Silver in 2012) committed only 31 errors all of last season, and Havelka wants more of the same defensively. “We’ve always have played good defense here, so that’s the key to our success,” he said.

“Play good defense, and get some timely hitting.” Junior outfielder Caitlyn Daly is a returning starter, and another junior, Kaley Smith, saw playing time at first base. Senior Olivia Parks filled in as the Mustangs’ See MUSTANGS, page 14

York leaves Redwings out in the cold By Mike Sandrolini Sports Reporter

Mike Sandrolini/Bugle Staff

Joe Boyle fires a pitch for Benet last weekend against York. He also doubled and scored a run.

Benet had played a grand total of two baseball games since mid-March before meeting Waubonsie Valley and Naperville North last Thursday and Saturday, respectively. Mother Nature’s refusal to call off winter, of course, is the reason why the Redwings were forced to swing bats and take ground balls in the gym rather than doing so outside. The Redwings finally got on a diamond for the first time in 10 days March 27 against nonconference opponent York. They held a 1-0 lead over the defending West Suburban Conference Silver Division champions through 31/2 innings, but the Dukes tallied two runs in the bottom of half of the fourth, and then added one run each in the fifth and sixth to post a 4-2 victory.

Although each squad committed three errors, the Dukes’ defense bailed them out at crucial junctures, while defensive miscues hurt the Redwings. The Redwings appeared to have York starter River Pitlock in trouble during the third when they loaded the bases with nobody out. Unfortunately, sophomore left-fielder Connor Hickey slapped a line drive right at York third baseman Tyler Zunkel, who stepped on the bag to double the Benet runner at third. “I thought it was going to be a big inning for us,” Benet coach Scott Lawler said.“The ball went right to their guy, and you can’t do anything about it.” The Redwings did pick up a run in the fourth when junior third baseman Joe Boyle doubled with two outs, advanced to third on an infield error and scored on a passed ball. However, in York’s half of the inning, Dan Cirone blooped a two-out double just out of the reach of a diving Jason Blohm in right field. Cirone’s hit plated two runs and put the Dukes in front, 2-1. York capitalized on Benet errors in the fifth and sixth to score two additional runs. “We’ve been inside, but so has everybody else,” Lawler said. “At this point in the season, it’s kind of a battle of who makes less mistakes. That team is probably going to win the game.” Yet as things turned out, the Dukes needed both runs. Senior Pat McInerney slugged an opposite-field solo homer in the sixth to make it 3-2. Benet had the bases loaded with two away in the seventh and McInerney at bat, but York relief pitcher Louis Alcaraz struck him out swinging to end it. “I put a good swing on it (the home run),” the 6-foot-5 McInerney said. “That pitcher’s good; he struck me out the last inning. He had good stuff, and he hung a little curve ball and went the opposite field with it.” If there’s a silver lining regarding the frigid weather, the cancellations allowed McInerney and three other members of the Redwings’ sectional finalist basketball team who are now part of the baseball team—Boyle, and senior pitchers Connor Bonnett and Robert Haemmerle—to get in some extra practice.

“The weather probably helped out a little big, because you get in a couple more swings (in practice),” said McInerney, a starting forward for the Redwings. “The basketball guys probably would have got (just) a week of practice. With the bad weather you get a couple more weeks of swings, and I feel like I’m already in baseball shape again.” Other than that, however, the cold has been a hindrance to a young Redwing team, which Lawler says need reps. “We’ve only been outside one time (prior to March 27), and by all means, that’s not an excuse,” Lawler said. “We need to take the first couple of games and say, ‘Hey, there’s stuff we have to work on.’ “This is the first time we’ve really taken ground balls on turf (outside). It really is. So for me today, even though we want to be competitive, it’s like we’re actually working on things so we get better every week. The weather has not been very good for us.” The Redwings lost to St. Rita, 6-5, in their season-opener on March 17. Both St. Rita and York are ranked among the top 25 teams in the area by a Chicago metro daily newspaper. “We have a lot of good, young guys; they just need reps,” Lawler said. “We’ve got some guys on the bench that need some reps, too.” Leadoff hitter Ryan Raupach, a junior, collected two singles versus York. Junior Chris Whelan started on the mound and fanned three in 4 2/3 innings. Senior Brendan Pullen finished up in relief. “He’s going to be one of our top guys this year,” said Lawler, referring to Whelan. “He throws strikes, mixes it well and he kept us in the game the whole time.” The Redwings whipped Waubonsie Valley, 9-0, on March 28 behind the one-hit pitching of junior Pat Peterson. Raupach tripled in the game for Benet. Benet (1-3) held a 6-5 lead going into the bottom of the seventh at Naperville North on Saturday, but the Huskies plated two runs and handed the Redwings a 7-6 defeat. McInerney hit a homer and doubled, while Whelan and Blohm each doubled. mike@buglenewspapers.com

home opener on March 27, nipping East Aurora, 5-4. Ryan Schlicher singled in the third, doubled in the fourth, and had an RBI. Jordan Slagle and Charlie Donovan also had RBIs. Zach Moran chalked up the victory, giving up five hits and striking out three over five innings. The Sentinels battled back from an 8-1 deficit March 28 versus Elmwood Park, but eventually lost ,13-7. Donovan tripled with four RBIs and stole two bases to set the pace for Westmont offensively. Moran also had two RBIs and Robert Koskuska drove in a run. Westmont hosted Somonauk in a doubleheader on Saturday, dropping the first game, 6-0, but winning the second, 13-3. Although Donovan started Game 1and was the losing pitcher, he struck out seven. The Sentinels, unfortunately, committed seven errors in the game. The Sentinels, however, polished off Somonauk, 13-3, in Game 2, which was stopped after five innings due to the 10-

run slaughter rule. Moran tied a school records for most hits in one game as he ended up with five while driving in two runs. John Kelly chipped in with two hits and two RBIs, and Schlicher singled twice and scored three runs. Jean Pietrzak earned the victory, scattering five hits and striking out six. Lisle suffered a 10-3 loss at the hands of Montini on March 28. Cliff Krause, Kevin Coppin and Ryan VanVolkenburg drove in the Lions’ runs. Adam Grego recorded Lisle’s only extra-base hit, a double.

summer. DGS also adds freshman lefty Caroline Hedgcock. “She’s going to be a good one,” Havelka said. “She plays on a very competitive summer team, and she has a lot of experience pitching. It’s not like she’s new. She pitches a lot, and she’s got some good confidence in herself.” While there are plenty of new faces on the team, Havelka said his expectations for the season

remain high. “I’d be lying to you if I just said we want to be .500 or something like that,” he said. “No, we don’t. We always try to play good competition, No. 1. And, No. 2, we always want to try and win our conference. We’ve been very successful (the Mustangs have won the WSS 17 times in the past 20 years). “But it’s more than that. You want to be playing your best

ball when the playoffs start and hopefully get on a run like what Marist did last year. And that’s our goals. We’ll see what happens.”

Hedgcock’s varsity debut was a successful one, not only on the mound but at the plate. She picked up the win over Mahomet-Seymour and slugged a home run. Daly also homered

as the Mustangs scored 12 runs in the second inning. Daly and Melissa Orton both doubled, and Andree cracked two doubles. The Mustangs continued their offensive onslaught versus Central, opening the game with an 11-run first inning. Schmitt tossed a no-hitter in the five-inning game, and Andree homered. Andree, Lea, Crystal Loehman and Jessica Faber each doubled.

The Lions rebounded on Saturday,sweeping a doubleheader at Walther Lutheran. Lisle won the first game, 7-3, and the second, 9-7, in extra innings. In Game 1, Brian Czyl hit a double and single and had two RBIs while Grego singled twice. VanVolkenburg,

Coppin and Jeremy Glavonavits each contributed RBI hits. Alex Ventrelia started and earned the victory, going five innings. He struck out eight. Billy Loconsole came through with an RBI single in the 10th inning to plate Grego with the

go-ahead run.There were six lead changes in the game until the 10th inning. Grego pitched 6 1/3 innings in relief to get the win and held off Walther Lutheran in the 10th. He and starter Bailey Welch combined for 12 strikeouts. Cliff Krause smacked

a two-run homer in the third inning for Lisle. Krause finished the game with three hits (one a double), as did Grego and Czyl, who had an RBI. VanVolkenburg, who doubled and singled, was the Lions’ big run-producer with a three-RBI game.

What was set up to be a great weekend of college hoops turned into one of the most lopsided second weekends of the NCAA Tournament in recent memory. Things were looking positive Thursday when Ohio State made a buzzer beater to top Arizona in a great game. However, the rest of the night was filled with stinkers. Even the upset of Syracuse over Indiana was one-sided for much of the game, as was the Marquette win over Miami. Friday was supposed to be the big day with the possibility of three or four great games. After Louisville maintained a double digit advantage

(9) Wichita State over Oregon, the game of the tournament, and probably year, took place between Kansas and Michigan. The Jayhawks were heading to victory, holding a double digit lead in the final minutes, before Michigan rallied to tie the game on a Trey Burke three. In overtime Michigan held on for the upset win. Unfortunately, the much anticipated Duke-Michigan State game turned into a snoozer and after a hot start, Cinderella Florida Gulf Coast ran out of steam against Florida. Saturday’s Elite Eight game between Syracuse and Marquette was rather painful to watch at times with the poor offensive showing and an easy Orange victory.

Syracuse (4) The nightcap between Ohio State and Wichita State turned out to be the highlight of the final eight as the Buckeyes rallied from 20 down in the second half to make the game interesting, before falling to the ninth seeded Shockers. Sundays games looked to be definite wire games, but both ended up being decided well before the end. Michigan jumped out to a huge lead and was never seriously threatened in the win over Florida. The Duke-Louisville classic will be remembered most for the terrible injury to Louisville’s Kevin Ware, rather than the game, as the Cardinals dominated the second half en route to an easy victory. That sets up a very surprising

Final Four, which, on paper, doesn’t look to be very appealing, with the exception of the Michigan-Syracuse game. However, after so little drama in the past week, there’s bound to be at least one great game outside of that one. I look for Louisville to cruise past Wichita State, while the Syracuse zone will be enough to keep Michigan outside, setting up an all-Big East final. In the finale, I expect to see a great game between the two teams. In the Big East championship, Syracuse was in control until a huge second half run gave Louisville an easy victory. I expect a similar thing to happen this time, but the Louisville run to be much

smaller and for there to be a great ending. As I picked in my bracket, I still think Louisville will win in the end, which would give me the outright Voyager Media Madness title. Unfortunately, I cannot win the $150, so the money is up for grabs. So, if Louisville wins it all, Plainfield’s Brianna Widler will take home the top prize, while Tom Harper would take second. If Louisville falls in the finals, Harper will win and Widler will be second. If Louisville falls to Wichita State, Harper will win and Anthony Gladstone will finish second.

Autism Awareness

Teachers more aware of autistic students’ needs Today’s educators are increasingly aware of the learning disabilities common in children. One of the more widely publicized and much debated conditions is autism. The educational debate with respect to autism largely surrounds whether segregated autism classrooms or integrated programs are better for the child. Autism is a developmental disorder that can begin at birth or in the first two years of life. In more severe cases, autistic children engage in puzzling behaviors that are markedly different from other children their age. They may show no interest in social situations, aversion to touch and repetitive behaviors, such as rocking or flapping their arms. Less severe cases may be classified

as Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) or Aspergerís Syndrome. These children may exhibit normal speech, but have deficits in social behavior. Autism was once very rare. Today,however,autism numbers are increasing at an alarming rate. In 2007, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that 1 in 150 children is diagnosed with autism. Boys outnumber girls four to one in diagnoses. Because autistic children are impaired in their ability to communicate and socialize, many programs exist to segregate autistic children from others and focus on specialized education, sometimes one-onone instruction. However, due to educational budget cuts, many autistic children are now being integrated right into the

regular classroom. Whether this is better or worse for all students involved is debatable. But if autistic children are being schooled along with non-autistic peers, certain steps teachers can implement will make the process more successful. * Follow a rigid schedule. Knowing what is going to happen next is often beneficial to autistic children. A chart listing a daily schedule that he or she can follow will indicate study times, lunch time, recess, and other scheduled activities. If any changes occur to the schedule, provide plenty of advanced warning. * Use clear language and avoid idioms so there is no confusion. * Have a quiet place the autistic child can go in moments of overstimulation or frustration. This is a comforting place where he or she can regroup before rejoining the class. * When addressing the entire class, it might also be necessary

to address the autistic child individually. He or she may not understand that group instruction also pertains to him or herself. * Use various means to present lessons, including pictures, words and modeling with other students to help ensure clarity. * Enforce social rules, such as taking turns and sharing. * Repeat instructions and check that the student understands them. * Make sure the other students are aware of the autistic childís special needs and that teasing will not be tolerated. * Keep in mind that obstinate behavior or anger should not be taken personally. It could simply be a sign of frustration in the child. * Organization can help reduce anxiety and outbursts. Make sure the autistic child sits in a distraction-free area. Integration of autistic children into the regular classroom can be a good start toward building social skills.

Business & Real Estate

Identify the root of workplace problems Q. I’m generally overwhelmed by the number of problems I face at work every day. I’ve been to time management classes. I know how to prioritize. I still see no way to actually fix the mountain of issues that face me every Monday morning. Is there some way not to start out behind every day I go to work? A. Yes, Albert Einstein was fond of saying, “A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it.” Problems are like rabbits: They multiple because there are central issues that propagate them. If you can spot and get rid of these central issues, your problems at work will become a manageable pile. Try this exercise: Write down all the problems you currently face at work. Now, next to each problem, list the causes and attributes. Now circle everything these problems have in common. What you are looking for is the iceberg that is sinking your workplace boat. Most problems are actually symptoms of key issues that are harder to identify. If you can see the root issue, the symptoms will clear up. For example, let’s say most of your coworkers get defensive and spend a lot of time criticizing you.You could get in an argument with every person who does this or wonder why people tend to be defensive around you. You may find that you are actually quite critical of other people and this puts your coworkers on the defensive. If you change your style, guess what ... most of your arguments may disappear. You may instead find your boss micromanages you constantly. She might just be a control freak. Then again, you may be engaged in a power struggle where you are determined to not let her influence you. What if you gave her more than enough data,

control and access to what you are doing? Do you think she’d probably back off? As Einstein observed, wise people are willing to consider all factors regarding what is creating a problem. Since most workplace problems have one thing in common us - considering our contribution to any problem is critical. Once we can see how we perpetuate situations we don’t like, we have amazing control to reduce the number of problems we experience. Most of us don’t enjoy seeing that we may be doing something less than effective with other people at work. We have to muster up the humility to acknowledge our skill deficits, which can make us feel a tad inadequate. Than again, facing a small pile of problems at work is a pretty sweet reward for a few minutes of inadequacy. Be willing to take your blinders off this Monday at work. Don’t run around just getting things done. Instead, identify root problems and fix the underlying problems. You’ll have the pleasure of a smaller to-do list. You’ll also stop having to fix the same boring problems over and over and, yes, over again.

The last word(s) Q. I’ve heard that it is important to let workplace bullies know they are hurting you. Does this work? A. No, you are just bleeding in front of workplace sharks.
