Westmont

Village Board reappoints 6 to planning, zoning commission

CommUnity

Board also votes to extend summer meeting schedule

By CHristine m. FoUsHi FOR THe BUgle The Downers Grove Village Council held the fourth and final long-range planning meeting Aug. 19, and Mayor Martin Tully said this year’s process involved a lot “passionate people exchanging ideas.” During this last meeting, the council checked in on the status of the plans 15 priority projects, which were laid out in July 2013. Village Manager David Fieldman said those projects are in various levels of completion, adding that they are on schedule. Various action items in the plan have been completed in the last year, including updates to the zoning ordinance, negotiating collective bargaining agreements, amending the village’s fowl ordinance, updating the Ogden Avenue sidewalk policy and exploring options for relocation of a methadone clinic

locate din downtown Downers Grove. Commissioner Geoff Neustadt asked whether projects such as leverage membership in the DuPage Mayors and Managers Conference and negotiating collective bargaining agreements since they are more in line with the village council’s day-to-day operations. Fieldman said items such as staying involved with the DMMC should stay on the list because the village is positioned to carry out specific projects with the group that could benefit the village and other municipalities. “My concern is if we take it off the list, the involvement would decrease,” Fieldman said. However, Tully and Fieldman agree involvement will dial down, eventually. As a general concept, Fieldman said improvement of resident engagement and communication is an everyday task.

The Westmont Village Board approved Mayor Ron Gunter’s reappointment of six current members of the planning and zoning commission during its Aug. 21 meeting. Gunter recommended Steve Fedeczko, R. Roy Fleet, Greg Pill, Ed Richard, Craig Thomas and Wallace Van Buren each be reappointed to the commission for the standard five-year length of the term. Trustee James Addington asked whether the appointments would be staggered since the village code required commissioners’ terms to be on different schedules. Village Attorney John Zemenak said those schedules would depend on when each of the appointees began serving on the commission. “We can go back historically and figure >> see zoning | page 9

Westmont

Village gives tree removal, replanting update Removal of for EAB-marked trees expected to accelerate over next 6 months

Because of numerous questions from residents regarding the tree removal program and when marked trees will be removed, the village of Westmont posted an update on the program on its website. “The reality is that the emerald ash borer problem is too large a problem for our internal staff to take care of on its own,” Village Forester Jon Yeater said. “Because of this situation, the village has approved funding to hire additional resources to address the problem. We are hoping to accelerate our tree removal program over the next six months, but we do ask residents to be patient during this process.” The village said it is currently

working on tree removals in the Oakwood subdivision and is close to completion. Starting in the fall, the program will focus on tree removal in the Ashford Subdivision and surrounding areas. Upon completion of this area, staff will reassess priorities and continue with the program. The village forester will be out this fall to mark any and all affected trees that have not already been marked throughout the village. All trees within areas not mentioned in the schedule will be marked for removal in the upcoming year. The village is planting new trees in areas where trees have been removed. The current goal is to have everything that was removed prior to February 2014

Tentative Tree Removal Schedule August-September: Northeast downtown and northeast acres (Burlington to Ogden, Cass to Wilmette/Richmond) September-October: Southeast downtown (Quincy to 56th St., Cass to Richmond) October-November: Farmingdale subdivision and surrounding areas. bugle file photo

replanted by fall. However, some specific species selected for individual sites require spring planting, in which case those locations will be replanted in the spring of 2015.

At this time, the village needs to address about 250 locations that need replanting. It should be noted that not all areas that have trees removed will not see those trees replanted. Issues such as proximity to existing trees and overhead wires may impact new plantings. A wide variety of species

December-January: Deer Creek Subdivision, Sycamore Run Subdivision & surrounding areas. are considered for replanting and selection is based on the logistics of each individual site. Typical replacement trees are 2 to 2.5 inches in diameter and approximately 6 to 12 feet tall depending on the particular species.

Tailgate Party the ultimate experience Hampton helps Bears fans get ready for a new season By miKe sandroLini For THe BUgle

mike@buglenewspapers.com @voyagersport

A week from Sunday, the Chicago Bears host the Buffalo Bills at Soldier Field in the season-opener of a muchanticipated 2014 campaign. Area Bears fans who attended last Sunday’s Ultimate Tailgate Party, hosted by Famous Dave’s and The Bugle, clearly are ready for some football as

they sampled mouth-watering barbecue, drank their favorite beverages, took part in Bears trivia contests, participated in a bags tournament … and collected autographs from featured guest Dan Hampton— the Pro Football Hall of Fame defensive lineman who was an integral part of Chicago’s 1985 Super Bowl championship club. “It’s a beautiful day. It’s beautiful to be around barbecue, and have the wafting scent of barbecue. It’s like napalm in the morning,” said Hampton with a grin while paraphrasing an old line from the Francis Ford Coppola Vietnam War movie,

“Apocalypse Now.” Hampton joins former Bears wide receiver Glen Koslowski and weeknight 11 p.m.-2 a.m. host Pete McMurray to provide analysis following every Bears game this season on WGN Radio AM-720’s “Two and a Half Bears” show. He was already in mid-season form during a live segment with Harry Teinowitz at the Tailgate Party that was broadcast on The Game 87.7 FM—a sports talk station started by WGN Radio earlier this year. “They (WGN) do everything top shelf and everybody is excited about the Bears, no question about it,” Hampton

said. “It’s going to be a consequential season one way or the other.” Hampton told Teinowitz he believes the Bears have “a pretty darned good team from top to bottom.” He’s particularly excited about how the organization went about acquiring free agents and draft picks to bolster a defensive line that, although injury-prone, also was a main reason why the Bears’ defense surrendered the most yardage in the NFL last season. >> To See The Full VerSion oF ThiS STorY, checK ouT BUgleNeWSPAPeRS.COM

Jury clears county in wrongful termination suit Employee claimed termination was retaliation to taking designated FMLA time off A jury said DuPage County did not violate former employee Kerry Vinkler’s rights under the Family Medical Leave Act when the County terminated Vinkler in the fall of 2012, according to DuPage County State’s Attorney

Robert Berlin. The jury reached their verdict after approximately thirty minutes of deliberations following a threeday-long trial in federal court. “The residents of DuPage County deserve and expect county employees to show up for work every day and do their jobs,” Berlin said. “The evidence in this case overwhelmingly showed that DuPage County was well within its rights to terminate Ms.Vinkler. In July 2005, DuPage County

hired Vinkler to serve as its director of Animal Care and Control. In the fall of 2012, authorities with the County’s Human Resources Department were made aware of allegations that among other things, Vinkler would leave work and not return for extended periods of time and falsified her time sheets. Following an investigation into the allegations, it was discovered that Vinkler had indeed falsified her time sheets on at least one occasion. Based on

the findings of the investigation, Vinkler was terminated from her employment at DuPage County on Oct. 19, 2012. In her suit against the county, Vinkler claimed that she was terminated from DuPage County in retaliation to taking FMLA designated time off from Oct. 4 to Oct. 16, 2012. “Simply put, Kerry Vinkler was hired to do a job and when it was discovered that she was not performing, she was let go,” Berlin said.


News >> PlAns from page 1 “We’re always doing that and improving on it for years and years, and we won’t stop,” he said. Included in this year’s 2015 budget is a customer relations management software, or set of tools, the village will be working on to better engage residents, Fieldman said. Neustadt agreed to leave this on the list to let residents know the council is here and working for them. He also brought up the possibility of discussing a mobile vendor ordinance, and he would like to see a timeline with putting something in place. “Everywhere I’ve been there are food trucks,” Neustadt said. Writing the ordinance is easy, Fieldman said, it’s setting policy that takes time. Commissioner Bob Barnett

“I have a feeling we’re on track, if we keep on moving with these items and go forward from there,” he said. expressed frustration with policy and said this list of projects appears to be stagnant. For example, one of the projects is continue to implement a downtown parking plan. Barnett said the village should continue to monitor the plan and in a few years it may be ready for adjustments. However, he said the plan shouldn’t prohibit the village from doing other things. Barnett said the council was not doing enough on behalf of the community and wanted to know how much more it would take to get two or three times more stuff done.

Tully said getting more done requires adding staff, as well as adding revenue, adding the best thing the council could do is set good policy and allow the staff to do their jobs so good work gets done. Commissioner David Olson said he is satisfied with the overall progress of the longrange plan. “It’s important we stay on track and continue to follow through on these projects we haven’t completed yet,” he said. “I’m hesitant to throw anything new although I have new ideas.” Olson said this is a great list of priorities and he looks forward to seeing their completion over the next year. “I have a feeling we’re on track, if we keep on moving with these items and go forward from there,” he said.

congress can redress harmful ruling on Voting rights act Key components of VRA were gutted by a decision of the U.S. Supreme Court This month we celebrate the 49th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the historic civil rights legislation to protect against discrimination in voting. Just over a year ago, however, key components of the VRA were gutted by a decision of the U.S. Supreme Court. Although a bipartisan group of lawmakers

introduced HR3899, the Voting Rights Amendment Act, at the beginning of the year, we are still waiting for Congress to finish what it started. The VRAA is a workable, commonsense solution that would modernize the elections process and protect voting rights against discrimination. Without a strong Voting Rights Act, our ability to fight off antivoter legislation and keep our elections free, fair and accessible is significantly weakened.

Voters must be loud and clear that the right to vote is fundamental to our democracy. We call on our Members of Congress to stand up for the right to vote for all. Congress, let’s get this done; let’s work to protect our elections and protect the rights of every eligible voter. Peggy Healy, President League of Women Voters of Downers Grove/Woodridge/ Lisle

Downers North OFFENSE The Trojans’ offense will be centered around quarterback David Edwards for a third straight year. A Wisconsin recruit at the tight end position, Edwards (6foot, 7-inches, 240 pounds) is a dual-threat quarterback. He battled injuries late last year and throughout the playoffs. In 12 games last year, the Trojans put up 249 points, but will be without receivers Vontae Diggs and Richard Olekanma this year, as well as backup quarterback Sebastian Calvino.

DEFENSE Downers North had one of the top defenses in the state last year,

limiting Mt. Carmel to seven points in the playoffs and allowing just 14 points in three playoff games. For the season the Trojans allowed just 130 points in 12 games. However, this year they will be without their defensive leaders as both Diggs and Olekanma have graduated, leaving a void on the ends.

is much greater than last year though on both sides of the ball. But, if Edwards stays healthy, the potential remains for another deep playoff run. -compiled by Scott Taylor

For the past two years, Downers North has been able to overcome a 5-4 regular season to advance to the state quarterfinals in Class 7A. The schedule won’t be easy this year, but if they can sneak into the playoffs, that schedule should help them once again in the postseason. This attrition

WSC SILVER PREVIEW Glenbard West remains team to beat; conference remains one of top in state early who are being suspended due to an off-field incident—but Glenbard West’s roster will be formidable nonetheless on both sides of the ball. Glenbard West’s calling card, of course, is its power running game. Donahvon Vaughn, a senior, will be getting the bulk of the handoffs from quarterback Kyle Kramer. Five of the division’s seven squads—the Hilltoppers, Oak Park-River Forest, Downers North, Lyons Township and Hinsdale Central—all made the playoffs in

As usual in the West Suburban Conference Silver Division, there will be a host of players taking the field on Friday nights who are bound for college football programs—D-I or otherwise. And, as usual, Glenbard West will once again be the team to beat. The Hilltoppers went 11-2 last season and advanced the Class 8A state semifinals. Coach Chad Hetlet’s 2014 club doesn’t have quite the star power it has enjoyed in recent years—plus he’ll have to do without a few players

2013, while a sixth team, Proviso West, missed the playoffs for the first time in four years. Two clubs that arguably will put the most pressure on Glenbard West for the top spot in the division this season are Oak Park and LT. The Lions boast 11 returning starters, including running back Leonard Ross, who’s verbally committed to Miami of Ohio, and three-year starting quarterback Tom Fiedler. OPRF come at you with running back Antonio Cannon and two Northwestern recruits: offensive lineman Adam Lemke Bell and quarterback Lloyd Yates. Downers North and Wisconsinbound David Edwards have the dubious task of playing Glenbard West, OPRF and LT in consecutive weeks to start the conference season, but the Trojans will field another playoff-caliber team. Hinsdale Central, and York, meanwhile, introduced new coaches during the spring and summer: Dan Hartman and Matt Monken. Hartman will attempt to lead the Red Devils to a fourth straight postseason appearance, and Monken, an assistant last

Downers South OFFENSE The Mustangs are anchored up from by Michigan recruit Eric Swenson, a 6-foot, 5-inch, 310-pound junior lineman. On the other side of the line is Cody Becker (6-6, 225). The middle of the line is anchored by Marcus Rutledge (6-6, 275), Andrew Burton (6-1, 235) and Neil Hart (6-0, 220). Quarterback Jordan Skach is back to run the offense. He will be throwing to Max Soderlund, Reilly Heavy and tight end Joe LaCivita. Jacob Baker is expected to get the lion’s share of the carries in the backfield. Ryan Taylor is also in the running for carries and the fullbacks include TJ Simpson and Louis Maillilin.

DEFENSE The Mustangs showed improvement last year on defense and could be even stronger this year. Both defensive ends return in Caleb Konney and Jamaal Harvey.

Konney had two picks in a game against Willowbrook last year. Jeff Agnew returns in the middle and he will be joined by Tim Peiffer and Matt Duman. The linebacking corps consists of Joliet West transfer Edward Barfield, Taylor and Mike Connolly, who is being recruited by Ivy League schools. Eric Denby, the field general in the defensive backfield, and Riley Taylor lead the secondary.

OVERALL After a rare year out of the playoffs in 2012, Downers South returned to the playoffs in 2013, finishing the season 6-4. This year will be the second year under coach Mark Molinari. After a slow start to the regular season last year, the Mustangs won six of their last seven regular season games before a 36-0 playoff loss to Naperville Central. A faster start this year could lead to another West Suburban Gold title (6-0 last

The West Suburban Silver is rated the third toughest conference in the state, while its West Suburban Conference partner, the West Suburban Gold, checks in tied for 21st with the South Suburban Blue. The WSG doesn’t get the notoriety that the WSS enjoys, but considering there are over 90 conferences in the state, it’s a very respectable ranking.

Benet Academy OFFENSE There will be a quarterback whose first name is Jack under center for the Redwings in 2014, but it won’t be Jack Beneventi, the 6-foot-6 Iowa recruit who helped led Benet to consecutive postseason appearances. Beneventi transferred to Fenwick in June, which opened the door for sophomore Jack Sznajder to take over. Coach Pat New describes Sznajder as a dualthreat type of QB who can run and “has a really nice arm.” Jack will be handing off to his brother, Brad, a senior, who started seven games for Benet last season, and throwing to two new wideouts: senior Myles McKernin and junior Karl Schmidt. Benet, however, returns four experienced senior linemen: Tyler Takahashi, Connor O’Donnell, Sean O’Connor and

Jack Kelly. “Offensively, I think it all starts with the offensive line,” New said “and if we can protect our quarterback and create some space for our running back, we’ll score some points.”

DEFENSE New said the Redwings won’t be as fast defensively as they were last season, so playing great team defense is a must. “Pursuit, swarm the football,” New said. “I know these guys are capable of doing that.” Kelly will be a key member of the line, while senior Brian Runger, who started a number of games during 2013, anchors the linebacking corps. Mac Cooney, also a senior, is a returning starter at safety.

Benet also is moving on without graduated playmakers such as Nick McTarnaghan, Nick Surges, Porter Ontko and kicker John Duvic. In addition to team defense, New is emphasizing stellar special teams play. “You look at the national champion in college,” he said, “you look at the 8A state championship last year, so many of these championship games come down to special teams. We think we can make up for a little bit of our losses with tremendous special teams play, plus just playing as a team.” -compiled by Mike Sandrolini

Interstate eight small division preview Wilmington remains the clear favorite in the new-look conference Since the departure of Coal City in 2008, the Interstate-8 Small School Division has had only one champion – Wilmington. There is no reason to think the Wildcats won’t be the team to beat again this season as Wilmington is one of the top teams in Class 3A for this season. Wilmington opens with a pair of Interstate-8 Large Division schools Sandwich and then Coal City. After the Wildcats, the I-8 Small is as open as it gets.

Mark’s Picks


AUGUST 27, 2014

lisle OFFENSE Most high school clubs are embracing pass-oriented offenses these days, but not new head coach Paul Parpet. “We’re going to have a power running game,” he said. The Lions’ running game will rest on the shoulders of junior Mike Metoyer and two sophomores: Grant Haen and Mark McGrath. “I like Grant, I like Mark McGrath and I like Mike Metyoer,” Parpet said. “I think they’re all very, very capable running backs.” Parpet also likes junior quarterback Alec Van Volkenburg. “Alex is going to run the offense and make the necessary throws that we ask him to make,” the coach said. Lisle’s line has some experience with returning senior starters Jared Arellano (center) and Alex Lange (guard). Senior Jack Hennessy and juniors John Eckard and Isaac Wilk also will be starting up front. Senior Charlie Jansen and junior Christian Grego are the team’s wideouts.

DEFENSE Parpet said the Lions will

play an even-man front and put pressure on opposing offenses. Arellano, Lang and Hennessy also will be the nucleus of Lisle’s defensive line. Seniors Tijaun Kelly and Billy Blystone, and junior Zach Temmerman, make up the Lions’ linebacking corps. In the secondary, Parpet plans on using senior Andy Frank, juniors Nick Massura and Drew English, and sophomore Mark Pivek.

OVERALL Parpet was the head coach at Addison Trail for 29 years, and most recently, coached the defensive line for four years at Downers North. “I still felt that I had a lot to give,” he said. “I like the Lisle community and I like the size of the school and the idea (of being a head coach again) was very appealing. It’s been outstanding since I’ve been here.” One big adjustment he’s making is the size of Lisle’s roster, compared to AT and Downers North. “The challenges are that

The Lions’ schedule certainly will be challenging. Four of Lisle’s first five 2014 opponents made the playoffs last year. -Compiled by Mike Sandrolini

Lisle lineman Jared Arellano is among those up front for the Lions.

Westmont OFFENSE As always, coach Otto Zeman’s offensive will be no-huddle and move the chains. “We’ll be wide open and we’re gonna go after people,” he said. This season, Kyle Domin puts the offense in motion, and Zeman likes what he’s seen from the junior over the summer and throughout August. “He’s got a really strong arm,” the coach said. “He could be as good as any quarterback I’ve coached.” The Sentinels have a threat out of the backfield, senior Quintin Brown, whom Zeman said wasn’t utilized enough on offense last year. “He’s got great speed,” Zeman said. Dimitrios Latsonas, a junior, figures to be Westmont’s top receiver. The Sentinels’ line is bolstered by returning starters Sam Soltwisch and Lou Prado, both juniors. Photo By Mike Sandrolini

Quinton Brown looks to lead the Westmont running game.

DEFENSE Westmont’s defense took its lumps last season, but it should be a more stable unit this time around with five returning starters: senior

linebackers Jhreu Montanez and Adam Ferrell, junior tackle Anthony Griffiths, and seniors Josh Hicks (tackle) and Marcus Mott-Larson (end). Both Hicks and Mott-Larson tip the scales at around 260 pounds. “I think we’ll be better defensively—a lot better,” Zeman said.

OVERALL Zeman, a successful coach at Riverside-Brookfield for 28 seasons before taking the helm at Westmont last year, said, “I made a lot of mistakes last year,” during a 1-8 campaign, yet he believes things will be better in 2014. “We’re changing some things,” he said. “We’re getting better. They’re learning that they’ve got to be here every day and be here on time; they’ve got to work hard. I’m making demands on them and they’re starting to come through.” Westmont is in Class 3A and will begin the season playing three Class 4A foes in succession. “The biggest thing we have to do—I thought we could do this last year,

We’ve just got to get tougher, and we’re doing it. I think our attitude is pretty good; they’re pretty enthusiastic.” -compiled by Mike Sandrolini


AUGUST 27, 2014 >> GOLD, FROM PAGE 15 are back, and they’ll continue to cement their position on top. 2. Addison Trail - Overall depth will likely land AT in the playoffs and put the Blazers in contention for the WSG title.

3. Hinsdale South - Regan’s arm and feet will keep opposing defensive coordinators up at night. The Hornets may be the WSG’s third playoff team this year. 4. Willowbrook - Simply put, Johnson’s departure hurts. 5. Leyden - The Eagles return

only one starter from the offensive line that helped Whigham reach his lofty numbers in 2013. Their schedule—which includes tangling with Oak Park-River Forest, Lyons Township, Addison Trail and Downers South in successive weeks—also won’t do them any

improved. The question will be if they can get above .500, and I think they can.

Top Team

Surprise Team

Top Offensive Player

Mark: Bolingbrook The Raiders defense is absolutely stacked this season. With brothers Julian and Jacob Huff back with Tuf Borland and Micah Dew-Treadway, the Bolingbrook D may be better this season than it was during the Class 8A championship team in 2011. The Bolingbrook offense will be reshuffled this season with starting QB Quincy Woods moving to WR and a host of new running backs, but the Raiders have the perfect person in place to help with that as IHSA legendary coach Dan Darlington joins the staff and will be calling offensive plays this season. Scott: Maine South Mark always seems to go with the Raiders or JCA. I picked the Raiders last year, but am going back to Maine South this year. The Hawks have a lot of talent coming back this year, particularly on offense. They always seem to have a solid defense, so that shouldn’t be a problem. And, they play the

Mark: Minooka I picked the Indians as my surprise team last season and I am doubling down this year. After some issues at the QB last season got worked out, Minooka scuffled to a 3-6 season. Nate Gunn has emerged as one of the top running backs in the area and has the opportunity to become one of the state’s best as well. A new quarterback is in the fold this season in Johnny Carnagio and he could make Minooka a threat to win the SPC. Scott: Westmont After a difficult year last year, I feel the Sentinels are set up to have a much better season this year. The schedule isn’t easy, but in coach Otto Zeman’s last year, and in another year in his system, they should have something to play for and be much improved. Zeman has high praise for quarterback Kyle Domin and he thinks the defense is much

Mark: Nate Gunn, Minooka The aforementioned Gunn is as imposing of a runner as the area has seen, standing 6-foot-1 and weighing 210 pounds. He tallied 867 yards and 14 touchdowns a year ago and could feast on SPC defenses this season and run well over 1,000 yards on the season. Scott: Chuck Hunter, Romeoville Hunter might not be the top offensive recruit in our coverage area, but he poses a matchup problem for whatever corner goes up against him. He broke through last year with a 1,000-yard season and that could be even higher this year with his combination of speed and athleticism.

with 101 total tackles. He had 10 tackles for loss, one sack, five pass break-ups and two interceptions. With a great cast around him, Borland will be free to wreak havoc again this season. Scott: Micah Dew-Treadway, Bolingbrook Yes, Borland is going to be in the running for our Player of the Year award and will have tons of tackles, but part of that will be thanks to Dew-Treadway. The Notre Dame recruit will plug up the line of scrimmage and force to linemen to block him, which opens up the linebackers like Borland to make plays.

this season to the tune of 1,000 yards or better. Scott: Brian Collis, Maine South Well, I guess Mark doesn’t know that football does take place north of I-88. But Brian Collis, a junior, is back for his second year as starting quarterback and I expect big improvements for him in year two. It also helps that he has a plethora of skill players around him.

Surprise Player

Mark: Tuf Borland, Bolingbrook Entering his junior season, Borland already has two years under his belt as a varsity starter. He was the team’s top tackler last season,

Mark: Gil Whitaker, Romeoville Last season, Whitaker put up maybe the quietest 800-yard season in the area, if not the state. His yards last season came while sharing carries with the now graduated Miguel Ford. While Ford was able to juke defenders and the Spartan passing game could put up highlights, Whitaker earned his yards between the tackles and should do the same

Mark: Deiondre Taylor, Lockport A talented player, Taylor is a converted running back to a possible quarterback spot this year. Wherever he plays, Taylor is sure to have an impact in the new-look Lockport offense. Scott: Danny Saracco, Plainfield South He might not surprise his opponents this year, but he will likely surprise plenty of other people across the area, and perhaps state. With Louisiana State-bound Clifton Garrett getting all the hype last year, it was Saracco, a sophomore, who led the team in tackles. He is now the leader of the defense in his junior year.

Will the government take your 529 assets?

I think there’s less than a one percent chance they’d seize the actual assets Dear Dave, I have a 5-yearold daughter, and I want to start a 529 for her. However, I’m concerned that the government might seize the 529 assets in order to pay off debt and give people treasury bonds instead. Do you think this might happen?

with you on the principal amount or the interest, James. You might be able to talk them down on the collection fees. They jack those way up. But the original amount you borrow, plus the actual interest that hasn’t been paid, is guaranteed by the government. They’ll get it from one of you! —Dave

the actual assets. Really, I don’t believe they’re any more likely to come take investments away than they are to come take your home. I mean, we’re really talking about private property here. If you have $100,000 in a retirement fund, and they say they’re going to take that away from you, it’s like taking a person’s home. I just don’t see that happening. The big question, I think, is this: Are they likely to take away some of the tax benefits — like the 529 plan’s ability to grow tax-free? As in, they just come in and say they’re making it all taxable to pay the bills they’ve accumulated up in Washington, D.C. from all their stupid behavior. That kind of thing actually could happen. —Dave

Smart tips to make fall lawn care easier Weeding can be made less painful if you adhere to the old gardener’s trick of completing this task after it rains

(StatePoint) A beautiful lawn is important for a lovely home, but when those autumn leaves begin to fall, some extra effort is required to keep things picture perfect. This once meant firing up noisy machinery and piling up bag after bag of yard waste. Now that we live in more environmentally-conscientious times, this might not seem like such a responsible idea. Doing things by hand doesn’t have to lead to a sore back. Learning some helpful hints can make your lawn really stand out this year and help you get the job done in a breeze. Spring is when the lawn and garden really come into full bloom, but fall is when plants are storing energy and nutrients to have ready when the season turns. Like an athlete training in the offseason, get a step up on the competition by building a good

foundation. Now’s the time to fertilize and aerate since roots keep growing and storing energy even when above-ground growth slows during the colder months. Don’t forget to keep watering too! Weeding can be made less painful if you adhere to the old gardener’s trick of completing this task after it rains. When the earth is dry, it’s harder to pull out the whole weed without breaking off the top. After rainfall, the ground is soft, making it easier to pluck out entire weeds.They can easily be added to leaves and other debris that needs to be hauled away.
