Renal care center opens in November By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

or 27-year-old Robert Pace, walking into the new state of the art dialysis center in Bolingbrook meant more than just reclining chairs, flat screen televisions and fireplaces. For him, the center means a better quality of life as he awaits a kidney transplant. Three times a week, four hours a day, on average, patients like Pace receive dialysis treatment to clear his kidney of toxins which it can no longer do on its own. Pace would normally have to drive to Naperville in an overcrowded facility with broken equipment at the likes of 5:30 a.m. to receive treatment. Eager to catch some extra needed

sleep and spend time with his four-year-old son, he said the new center is close enough for him to walk to if he had to. The growing need for such a center in the BolingbrookRomeoville area was prevalent with only one center in the Will County vicinity and the reason doctors Mohammed Ahmed and Anis Rouf pursued a new facility that would take care to a different level. The group contacted U.S. Renal Care on a mission to offer another option for renal, explaining that competition normally drives increased care. A year later, the company is now leasing space at 396 Remington Boulevard, near Adventist Medical Hospital, and have invested 2.5 million in the project.

“These patients have to endure this treatment for 12 hours a week—we want to make it as comfortable as it can be and make dialysis easier for the patient,” said Ahmed, who serves as the medical director. “This offers them a choice they didn’t have before…We have to do right by out patients.” That’s why the front-end investment including stone façade walls, a high-end aquarium, televisions with Comcast, DVDs, comfortable reclining chairs were important to Ahmed when building the facility. The equipment is stateof-the-art, but it was also about making the patient feel at home, trying to keep patients positive through an ordeal that most say is hard to take—for patients with

kidney failure, without dialysis is death. “At least now I won’t feel like I am sitting in a hospital all the time—I can sit back and relax,” said Pace. Ahmed explains that renal disease itself is a precursor of diabetes and hypertension, two diseases that are running rampant today. He said it is expected that within 15 years the number of diabetes patients will double. In addition, renal disease is seen at a high percentage in the Hispanic and African American individuals. With a growing Hispanic population in Bolingbrook and throughout the area, the need for the community increases. Having had the opportunity to work at the Mayo Clinic where he learned patient care comes

first,Ahmed passionately believes in enriching patients lives and giving them the tools to do so. Diagnosed two months ago, Pace has a long road ahead of him, with most patients on an eight-year waiting list. The thought of receiving treatment at the new facility softens that blow a bit, says Pace, who has placed all his faith in Ahmed. “If it wasn’t for Dr. Ahmed, I would probably be dead already,” said Pace, who was diagnosed after being sent to the doctor after fainting on the job. Without insurance he rarely visited the doctor and the problem went undetected. With the help of Ahmed, he was able to get insurance and on a plan to help See RENAL CARE, page 9

Voter’s Guide November 2012 Bugle/Sentinel Newspapers e-mailed a short questionnaire to candidates in the Nov. 6 elections. We asked each candidate for a general statement about their campaign and what they believe to be the largest issue facing Will County. The following pages contain responses we received. U.S. Rep., 3rd District

U.S. Rep., District 11

Daniel Lipinski Western Springs Democrat Incumbent

Richard Grabowski Hometown Republican Challenger

Judy Biggert Hinsdale Republican Incumbent

I am a leader, fighting for 3rd District residents. I choose to rise above Washington’s bickering, and bring people together to solve our problems. My five-point jobs plan is helping get people back to work. The Chicago Tribune endorsed me as one of the most independent voices in Congress, who earns lots of unsolicited praise from colleagues in both parties, and I recently received the Concord Coalition’s Economic Patriot’s Award for leadership on deficit reduction.

I’m concerned with preserving our freedoms, our traditional American way of life; defending our U.S.Constitution; promoting a smaller, limited, less intrusive government; lowering taxes; fighting wasteful spending; balancing the federal budget; protecting our USA borders; enforcing and toughening our existing immigration laws; and having something left of our country to pass on to our future generations. I will not sell out ‘We the People,’ the citizens and taxpayers.

My top priority is getting the economy back on track and putting people back to work, by supporting policies that encourage private sector job growth. For millions of families in Illinois and around the country, no other challenge is more urgent than addressing the loss of a paycheck, a drop in income, or uncertainty about having a job next week or next month. The primary issue confronting Will County, as with the rest of the country, is jobs and our economy. I look forward

In addition to job creation, improving local transportation is critical. As a member of the House Transportation Committee, I brought CN and Metra together to improve on-time performance on the Heritage Corridor, and I am working to add more trains. To boost Lewis University Airport as an economic engine, I brought a top FAA official to the airport and helped get $2.4 million to repave a runway. I am also working to improve area roads.

We have a huge opportunity this year,the chance and challenge of a lifetime, to help take back the far reaching southwest and west suburban areas of Will County out of the hands of the oppressive Obama, Quinn, Madigan, Lipinski, Jackson and Rush South Side Chicago Democratic Machine from Cook County. We have an opportunity to remove more corrupted Democrats from power in 2012, and give the future generations of Will County the hope for a REAL change that they deserve.

to supporting pro-growth policies that will spur private sector job-creation, including cutting wasteful federal spending, reducing the red tape that burdens businesses, and reforming the tax code to make it flatter and fairer, as well as supporting local priorities to create jobs, including investments in infrastructure and protecting our waterways.

Will County State’s Attorney

Pam McGuire Joliet Democrat Incumbent

Marlene Carlson New Lenox Republican Challenger

James W. Glasgow Joliet Democrat Incumbent

Dave Carlson Plainfield, IL Republican Challenger

Having taken the clerk’s office into the 21st century and having many pieces in place, we are ready to move forward into the electronic age. This will be achieved by working with our justice partners to share data electronically. The Clerk’s Office will accomplish this without utilizing your tax dollars. Moving into the electronic age will allow us to continue serving our courthouse customers, providing service options and greater efficiencies while saving time and money.

I am a Lead Computer Systems Engineer/IT professional with over 17 years of experience and a Will County small business owner for the past 12 years. The population of Will County has grown dramatically over the past 10 years and caseload in our circuit court has also grown. The courthouse is very overcrowded and our computer systems are outdated and cannot keep up with the caseload. The general public and current leadership suffer with these problems daily, however, the lack of experience has caused a lot of these critical computer related projects to stall before they are completed. When I am elected I will use my professional experience and strong work ethic to help modernize our court system to save taxpayers time and money.

I am running to continue my work serving and protecting our citizens and making Will County the safest place to live, work and raise our families. My office’s felony conviction rate is 15 points higher than the state average. I work to protect battered women, abused children, senior citizens,businesses and veterans.This year, my office secured important convictions against Drew Peterson for killing his third wife and Christopher Vaughn for killing his entire family. We are prosecuting heroin dealers locally and have convicted 146 in recent years. I also am working with law enforcement from throughout Northern Illinois on a regional attack plan to crack down on dealers. I partnered with HERO/HELPS to educate our community about the dangers of heroin. And we are launching a curriculum in high school classes to educate students. Our goal is to put dealers behind bars, eliminate the market for heroin and reduce overdoses.

I intend to take politics out of the Will County state’s attorney’s office and stem the torrent of mistakes the incumbent has habitually committed over his 16-year tenure. The office needs to return to being run as a professional prosecutorial office that treats every case as important, not just the ones that grab headlines. Destroying innocent lives for political purposes, neglecting victims and allowing Chicago politicians to control this office is not acceptable. In addition to the 133 heroin deaths in four years that have gone ignored and the dismissal of 66 percent of domestic violence cases by the incumbent, there are too many to mention. However, the unprofessional “management” of this office has led to a culture of pay-to-play, favors- for- friends and too many Chicago operatives running our state’s attorney’s office. Having a Chicago Alderman on the payroll as a special assistance is evidence we need change.

Struggling with decreasing revenue and budgets while maintaining excellent service to our customers. Though the circuit clerk’s collection effort approximately $14,000,000 in ignored unpaid court ordered costs have been collected and disbursed to county, local and state branches of government to assist with their budget deficits. Our office earnings exceed our expenditures; as a result, our office is one of the few offices in the county that does not put a burden on the county budget.

The problem we face in Will County is that leadership has deeply rooted family ties. Because of family connections they swap seats to retain political power, regardless of any value added in serving in these offices.

Will County Coroner Patrick O’Neil Lockport Democrat Incumbent

Charles Lyons Channanon Republican Challenger

My platform to run for Will County coroner has not changed since 1992 and that has been to be accountable, dedicated and a steward to the taxpayer dollars in an office that never closes. Families that are dealing with sudden and unexpected deaths are treated professionally and with compassion. Families have always and will continue to come first under my administration. The economy and taxes are issues that Will County citizens are facing.That is why Will County Coroner Pat O’Neil trimmed expenses and actively acquired more than $100,000 of donated medical equipment at no cost to taxpayers. He also rents the medical equipment and facility that has made the county thousands of dollars in income. By doing so, Will County taxpayers not only were reimbursed for a morgue that O’Neil opened in 2002, but are now putting money in the bank.

The largest issue facing Will County as far as the coroner’s office is concerned is accuracy of death investigations. Currently we have a coroner who states he has supervised over 50,000 cases in 20 years. Someone needs to inform him that supervision is not reading the cases but actually investigating the cases in the field. When I am elected, I will be a working coroner. I will put families first. Under my leadership the Coroners office will be the leaders in the death care industry in Will County. How do you do this? By proper training. The current Coroner believes that his deputies receiving a 40-hour training course at the beginning of their career is sufficient. I believe in continuing education. Every professional license in the state of Illinois requires 24 hours of continuing education every two years. The coroners office should maintain that level of excellence in training as well.

I will stand firmly against tax increases and will work to make local government more effective.

Polling places shift with redrawn district lines Based on redistricting done by the State of Illinois and the Will County Board, the County Clerk’s Office readjusted Will County precincts recently to make them more uniform in size. As a result, precincts and polling places have changed for many voters. Along with the voter card that was sent in January 2012, a Voter Information Guide also was mailed to all registered voters. It provides voters with details about their polling place, early voting sites and other valuable information.

To further assist voters who will be asked to choose Republican, Democratic or Non Partisan (when applicable) ballot when they vote in the upcoming General Election, the guide will include a sample ballot for each political party showing all candidates and referenda for which they are eligible to vote. Please visit the Will County Clerk’s web site at www. thewillcountyclerk.com for this and other election-related information. You can also find your precinct and polling place location in any

of the following two ways. Precinct Lookup: Using your address, you can search online for the location and picture of your polling place. Voter Registration Card: Your polling place is determined by your precinct number and is listed on your Voter Registration Card. Also included on your card are the districts and units of government for which you are entitled to vote; those common to all Will County voters (president, U.S. Senate, state and county officials) are not listed on the card due to space limitations.

Its unique mix of cultures offers enchanting cobbled villages, scenic vineyards, gourmet cuisine and art that is as vibrant as the medieval day it was painted. Standing like a flower-child referee between France and Germany, Alsace has weathered many invasions. Once a Germanspeaking part of the Holy Roman Empire, it became part of France in the 17th century. After France lost the FrancoPrussian War in 1871, Germany annexed it. It bounced back to France after World War I (though Hitler’s army occupied it during World War II). All these centuries as a political shuttlecock have given Alsace a hybrid culture. And the city of Colmar is a great home base to experience it. Long popular with French and German tourists, this well-pickled old town of 70,000 is often overlooked and underrated by overseas travelers. During World War II the American and British military were careful not to bomb quaintly cobbled Colmar. So

today Colmar not only survives, it thrives with 15thand 16th-centur y buildings, distinctive c u i s i n e , and rich art treasures. Colmar’s Unterlinden Museum gets my vote as the best small museum in Europe ( w w w. m u s e e - u n t e r l i n d e n . com). It fills a 750-year-old former convent with exhibits ranging from Roman artifacts to medieval winemaking, and from traditional wedding dresses to paintings that give vivid insight into the High Middle Ages. Matthias Grunewald’s gripping Isenheim Altarpiece, which shows a gruesome crucifixion, is the museum’s most important work. Germans know this painting like Americans know the Mona Lisa. The altarpiece was commissioned 500 years ago by a monastery hospital filled with people suffering terrible skin diseases - a common cause of death back then. The hospital’s

goal, long before the age of painkillers, was to remind patients that Jesus understood their suffering.The many panels led patients through a series of Bible stories culminating with a reassuring Resurrection scene. Colmar’s replica of a more modern icon will surprise many Americans. Colmar is the hometown of Frederic-Auguste Bartholdi,the great sculptor who designed the Statue of Liberty which was a gift from France to the United States on its 100th birthday. Colmar’s Bartholdi Museum describes the creation of Lady Liberty and displays many of Bartholdi’s sculptures (www.musee-bartholdi.com). One room is dedicated to the evolution and completion of the Statue of Liberty; she was assembled in Paris, then taken apart and shipped to New York in 1886 ... 10 years late. If you come on the Fourth of July, the admission is free. When you’re ready for a break from museums, it’s time to hit the road. The Route du Vin the wine road of Alsace - is an asphalt ribbon tying 80 miles of vineyards, villages, and feudal fortresses into an understandably

popular tourist package., it’s time to hit the road. The Route du Vin - the wine road of Alsace - is an asphalt ribbon tying 80 miles of vineyards, villages, and feudal fortresses into an understandably popular tourist package. The dry and sunny climate here has produced good wine and happy tourists since Roman times, so vineyardhopping is a great way to spend an afternoon. Roadside degustation signs mean winetasters are welcome, but be prepared for grape varieties that differ from what you might find elsewhere in France. Riesling is the king of Alsatian grapes; it’s robust but drier than the German style you’re probably used to. Sylvaner fresh and light, fruity and cheap - is a good Alsatian wine for a hot day. Pinot Gris wines are more full-bodied, spicier, and distinctly different from other Pinot Gris wines you may have tried. Gewurztraminer is “the lady’s wine” - its bouquet is like a rosebush, its taste is fruity, and its aftertaste is spicy - as its name implies (gewurtz means “spice” in German). In case you really get “Alsauced,” the French term for headache is mal a la tete. Along with its wine, Alsatian cuisine is world-famous. Even vacationers traveling on a shoestring should spring for a fine meal in Alsace. You can’t mistake the German influence: sausages, potatoes, onions, and sauerkraut. Look for choucroute garnie (sauerkraut and sausage) - although it seems a shame to eat it in a fancy restaurant. Also try sampling Baeckeoffe (a meaty onionand-potato casserole), Rosti (an oven-baked potato-and-cheese dish), Spatzle (soft egg noodles), fresh trout, and foie gras. For lighter fare, try poulet au Riesling (chicken cooked ever-

so-slowly in Riesling wine). At lunch, or for a lighter dinner, try a tarte a l’oignon (like an onion quiche, but better) or tarte flambee (like a thin-crust pizza with onion and bacon bits). Dessert specialties are tarte alsacienne (fruit tart) and Kuglehopf glace (a light cake mixed with raisins, almonds, dried fruit, and cherry liqueur). For a pleasing taste of European culture, there’s nothing quite likeAlsace.Visitors enjoy a rich blend of two great societies: French and German, Catholic and Protestant - just enough Germanic discipline with a Latin joy of life.

If You Visit Sleeping: Hotel Saint-Martin, ideally situated near the old Customs House, is a family-run place that began as a coaching inn (splurge, www.hotel-saintmartin.com). Hotel Balladins, near the Unterlinden Museum, is modern, efficient, clean, and cheap (budget, www.balladins. com). Eating: Winstub Schwendi has fun, Alsatian pub energy (3 Grand Rue); Chez Hansi is where Colmarians go for a traditional meal (23 Rue des Marchands). Getting Their: There are four, direct, high-speed trains from Paris that connect to Colmar daily in about three hours; see www.scnf.com. Tourist Info www.otcolmar.fr.

Black cats aren’t likely to cross your path in the week ahead - but if they do, you are likely to earn a few purrs of affection. Your warmth and enthusiasm make others feel comfortable and safe.

Thoughts are like cider; best when mulled over. The full moon falls in your sign this week, so you might find that you focus your energies on relationships and spend time wrapping up loose ends.

Pull the tricks from up your sleeve. Your hospitality or homemaking skills might win admiration in the upcoming week. Prepare sweet treats for ghosts and goblins, or something special for your friends.

Break down barriers and make a breakthrough. While bobbing for apples at a neighborhood party or shopping for a costume, you may suddenly become the center of attention in the week to come.

Color your world in bright colors and erase the gray. In the week ahead, you can expect to see many black cats and orange pumpkins. Explore a growing sense of intimacy with a significant other.

Constant comment leads to commitment. You may find a few moments this week when you “know” you have connected on a spiritual level. Someone’s words may move you to achieve inner peace.

Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder - and your eyes might grow wide with delight. During the week ahead, it will be easier than usual to acquire items that promise joy, please the eye and pamper the heart.

Take your inner child out for a walk. Don’t be bashful about attending events meant for the kids. You may link up with new friends in the week to come or find others who share a creative hobby.

In the week ahead, you might find that physical activities bring you closer to the very people you most admire. Accept an invitation to a Halloween hayride or plan a tour of a haunted cornfield.

“Practice makes perfect” might be the most prominent theme. In the week to come, your ambitions rise to a fever pitch. Prepare for surprise visits from friends or some oddly dressed children.

Like the famous Boy Scouts promise, it is wise to “be prepared” in the upcoming week. Fill up the candy dishes and arrange for guests. Halloween could provide a good excuse for home-based activities.

The week ahead may bring several opportunities to become more closely tied, entwined or aligned with a divine someone. Don’t be afraid to try out something new or to give in to generous impulses.

Spartans’ season ends in sectional final By Mark Gregory Sports Reporter

This season, the Romeoville boys soccer team had a program defining season, going 14-6-2 after posting a 4-12 mark a year ago. The Spartans season ended with a 3-0 loss Saturday to Edwardsville in O’Fallon, the first loss on turf for Romeoville all season. “We were 0-0 at halftime and they scored on three set plays,” said Spartan coach Nick Cirrincione.“We could probably have kept it 1-0, but we played with three forwards instead of two and pushed our sweeper up when we got down.” The main reason the sweeper was pushed up was because Jonathan Silvar was playing injured after he suffered a hamstring strain in the sectional semifinal win over Normal Community. “He was on the field, but he was only at probably 50 percent,” Cirrincione said. “I would have liked to have seen him healthy.” Silvar did score the gamewinning goal in the Spartans’ 2-1 win over Normal Community in the sectional opener, which was held at Joliet West.

Sports FINAL Continued from page 13 The goal was set up on an assist from Josh Ickes halfway through the second half. “Allan (Benitez) again gave me the ball and I saw Jonathan and I just wanted to get the ball to him for the header,” Ickes said. “It was a great ball from Allan.” Ickes scored the Spartans’ first goal near the halfway point of the first half to tie the game. After he scored, he ran over and pointed to the fans for their help. “When we were down 1-0, our fans started the chants and got us momentum,” Silvar said. “It is so great that the school and the

fans were behind us. They really help get you up when you are down.” Cirrincione does not see this season as the end of a run for Romeoville, as they have several returning players. “I am looking forward to seeing where we go next year,” Cirrincione said. “We have 13 players coming back next year.” Cirrincione said he has a training method which the players bought into this past offseason and he hopes the success of this season makes the team willing to work as hard, if not harder heading into next year. “I went to Glenbard North and I played soccer and wrestled there,” Cirrincione said. “Our wrestling program is a state power and we had morning workouts. I wanted to challenge our soccer players to train in the mornings and they took the

challenge. We also had 20-25 guys at the 25 contact days in the summer and we don’t just play for an hour a day on contact days, we train three hours. We lift, run and then play soccer.” The departing seniors believe in the method. “Since the summer, we have all been up at 6 a.m. every day busting our butts and it paid off,” Silvar said.“We have worked so hard all season for this. The starting 11, every guy on the bench, no one is just along for the ride. Everyone has worked hard for this.” Believing, Cirrincione said, can go a long way. “This is one of the first times that a Romeoville sports team really believed in itself,” he said. “We have the talent in the school, the teams just have to believe that they can do it every game.” mark@buglenewspapers.com

Romeoville falls to Bolingbrook in regional opener By Scott Taylor Sports Editor

Regional quarterfinal loss. “We came in here knowing we had to win,” Bolingbrook senior outside Ciara Hill said.“They had their section going and we had our section going. It was crazy, but we pulled out the win.”

After losing the first set, the Spartans trailed 7-0 to open the second set, but worked their way back into the game, forcing a tie at 11-11. See FALLS, page 16

THE BUGLE NOVEMBER 1, 2012

Sports FALLS Continued from page 15 “They are fighters,” Fehrenbacher said. “We’ve put ourselves in a hole all season and we have to dig our way out. There probably aren’t many games that we got blown out of. If we got to the point where we didn’t dig ourselves a hole, we’d be alright.” The Spartans played without injured starter Jaelin Mankins, which didn’t help their cause. “She’s missed, and you can feel it,” Fehrenbacher said. “That really hurt, but being able to put her in the middle and Kiera Currie on the outside where she is more comfortable.” With the tense rivalry between the schools, both sides were well supported for the playoff game, giving it a great atmosphere. “The fans have really came out the mast couple weeks and supported us,” Fehrenbacher said.“We definitely appreciate it.

They love the atmosphere and getting the kids excited.” “Of course it’s more exciting, definitely,” Bercot said of playing the rival Spartans.“We’re district schools and a lot of girls know each other from Bolingbrook and Romeoville being so close. So, I think they were a little more pumped up for sure.” Romeoville will have to replace seniors Mankins, Currie, Danielle Neugebauer, Ashlynn Wallace, Melanie Underwood and Raven Kelly. They will be looking for Jasmine Benitez, Gianna Dever, Kurin Czerwin, Jessica Kurczaba, Jena Soto, Celena Baez, Sarah Paetsch and Laricia Vazquez to play bigger roles next year. “No doubt we’re going to miss the leadership,” Fehrenbacher said.“Most of our starting lineup was seniors. Having been there and done that will definitely be missed. We had two-year starters in Jaelin, Kiera and Danielle .The other girls are going to have to step up next year.” staylor@buglenewspapers.com

Sophomore Mike Samuelson competed at the Marist Sectional Saturday.

Romeoville’s Mike Samuelson spent a lot of his season on the frosh-soph level. Saturday at Midlothian Meadows, he was in the big time. Samuelson competed in the Marist Sectional and performed well, finishing with a time of 16 minutes, 47.4 seconds. “It was a huge experience, you can only move forward form this,” Samuelson said. “I feel like the chip (on the tongue of his shoes that had to be worn) started to bother me halfway through. I feel if that wasn’t bothering me I could’ve done better, but I gave it my all. I can’t use that as an excuse for my overall performance.” The sophomore had a week to remember, both on and off the course. “It was an awesome experience,” Samuelson said. “Everyone in my school was telling me congratulations and good luck. It’s a huge honor. This is the race before state and qualifying as a sophomore, you can’t ask for anything better. I would have liked to have more teammates running here.” One big difference for Samuelson was the level of competition he faced. Not only was it the varsity level, but it was some of the best runners in the state that he was going up against. “It’s a huge reality check,” Samuelson stated. “In the froshsoph races I was in the front pack. In something like this, you don’t want to get carried away in other’s performances. You have to run your own race. I think I made progress.” However, seeing those strong runners has only given him more motivation to work harder for next year in hopes of being one of those runners. “It makes me want to be right with the top crew,” he said. “That’s my goal coming up. Every year you can only progress. The summer is going to be the key. I have track season coming up, but the summer will be the key. I’m going to have to work hard.” Senior Josh Sopczak also competed at the sectional and came in with a time of 17:42.7. staylor@buglenewspapers.com

Maine South rolls over Lane

By Matt Le Cren Contributing Writer

By now Maine South coach David Inserra is accustomed to seeing quarterback Matt Alviti turn in great performances. But even Inserra can get a little star-struck at times watching his Northwesternbound star shred defenses with startling precision. Such was the case Saturday when Alviti completed 24 of 35 passes for 328 yards and five touchdowns in leading the host Hawks to a 42-7 victory over Lane Tech in a Class 8A first round playoff game in Park Ridge. “He can make any throw and find the open receiver,” Inserra said of Alviti, who also ran for a touchdown. “Sometimes you get caught watching and forget to coach.” Alviti put on a clinic, completing passes to seven different receivers, four of whom caught touchdown passes. Maine South (10-0) scored on its first four possessions in seizing a 28-0 halftime lead, with Alviti firing touchdown passes on each drive. Alviti tossed a 12-yard scoring strike to John Solari to open the scoring, then found Daly Guzaldo for a nineyarder later in the first quarter. In the second quarter, Alviti had TD passes of 28 yards to Zach Hinkamp and 26 yards to Guzaldo. “Our receivers are awesome,” Alviti said. “I think we’ve got the best receiving corps in the state. They make each other better, they make me better, I

make them better. My running backs make each other better and it just takes a lot of pressure off. It’s a great group of guys.” Lane Tech (5-4) never pressured the heavily favored Hawks, who won their playoff opener for the 10th straight season. But the Indians briefly had a glimmer of hope in the third quarter after recovering a fumble and scoring on a fouryard run by Jack McLaughlin. Trailing 28-7, Lane forced a fumble by Alviti on a hard sack by Ricardo Reyes and picked up a first down on the ensuing drive. But on 4th and 10 from the Maine South 44, McLaughlin was intercepted by linebacker Chris Buscemi, who was making his second start since returning from a bout with mono. Buscemi returned the pick 30 yards to the Lane 36 and five plays later Alviti scored on a three-yard run with :08 left in the period. It was Alviti’s 37th career rushing touchdown. “We started real strong and offensively we played great in the first half,” Alviti said. “Defense was playing real well today, too. We’ve just got to stay more focused in the second half and come out ready to play better.” George Sajenko caught seven passes for a game-high 136 yards, including a 65yard touchdown in the fourth quarter, for Maine South. Guzaldo had six receptions for 59 yards, while Solari had four for 42 and Frank Perrone four for 41. Anthony Mitchell added 93

yards rushing on 12 carries and John Oberheide kicked six extra-points for Maine South. “Offensively I thought we were pretty workmanlike, came out and did what we had to do, nothing purely exciting but taking care of business, hitting open receivers and running the ball when we had to,” Inserrra said. “It was a business-like performance, nothing special. We’ve got to pick it up for the next round because it only gets harder.” The Hawks will host a second round game against Conant (73), which beat New Trier 14-0. Maine South has faced Conant twice before in the playoffs, losing 30-28 in 2002 and beating the Cougars 21-14 in 2006. Both were first-round games. “Conant we haven’t played in a while,” Inserra said. “They’re playing hard, they’ve got a nice tight end, but I haven’t watched a lot of film on them at this point.”

Is end of 2012 workplace Armageddon? Q. People in my workplace are noticing all sorts of problems occurring faster and more frequently as we get toward end of the year. They’re talking about the Mayan calendar and predictions about the end of the world. I’ve got enough stress without contemplating Armageddon. How do I handle people in my workplace acting like we’re all heading for a disaster movie? A. People in the workplace are highly vulnerable to anxiety because their survival these days pretty much depends on their paycheck. You can handle the current anxiety about the much discussed date December 21, 2012 by knowing the end of the Mayan calendar is just another version of anxiety in the workplace. Remember the Y2K fears? Planes were going to fall out of the sky and computer systems

were going to crash and then ... nothing happened. Even prophets and psychics don’t seem to agree on future events. No one knows for sure what will happen on December 21 2012, but, historically speaking, it is probably not the end of your workplace. I always tell clients that if they are worried about the future, they should work at being prepared rather than scared. If an asteroid is going to hit the earth, there’s not much you can do about that. However, paying down bills, having surplus water or food on hand, and updating your resume certainly can’t hurt. When your coworkers gather at the water cooler to discuss

the end of the world, ask them what exactly they think is going to happen. Then ask what they think they could do to be ready for that. Peace of mind requires using fear to be proactive rather than allowing your worries to consume you. Some people enjoy the drama of a current or future disaster. Disaster makes them feel like they’ve had a shot of espresso. Whether they worry about being fired, your company getting bought out or the end of the world, it all makes them feel alive. If contemplating disaster makes somebody feel excited, then they probably won’t take you up on your advice to prepare. You also don’t have to participate in long conversations with them, which only raises your anxiety and does nothing to increase your readiness to survive adversity. When you look around you

at work, give everyone in your organization the credit that just getting out of bed is an act of courage these days. There is a great deal of challenge and uncertainty in and out of our workplaces. Dates like December’s supposed doomsday seem to crystallize our natural concerns about the future. Rather than waste the energy you could use to get a raise, get a promotion or achieve career goals, ask yourself what specifically you are worried about? It is OK to come up with ridiculous ideas. Then ask yourself, “Can I prepare for that?” If you can be proactive, do it! If you can’t, make peace with your lack of omnipotence in the universe.

my job and my future. Is there any way to try and lift my depression?

The last word(s)

(c) 2012 INTERPERSONAL EDGE DISTRIBUTED BY TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES, INC.

Q. I am finding myself more and more depressed about

Tithing without telling Dear Dave, I’m a Christian,but my husband is not. However, we still budget a small amount to give to the church. I started working a parttime job recently, and would like to tithe on this income. Is it okay to do this without telling him? Christine Dear Christine, No, it’s not. Do you really think you’d be honoring God by tithing on this income while at the same time creating a situation where you’re dishonoring your husband by hiding things from him? That’s not a good idea. Your husband has already shown respect for your beliefs with his agreement to make tithing a part of your budget. I think you should return that respect and let him know you’d like to give a portion of your new income. Besides, you wouldn’t be tithing out of his income in a situation like this. It would just be a small portion of the new, additional income you’re generating.

Remember, too, that not tithing isn’t a sin. God doesn’t love you more when you tithe, and it’s not a salvation issue. He wants us to be givers because he knows what it does for us on the inside. It makes us a little more Christ-like when we put the wants and needs of others ahead of our own. So sit down with your husband and explain your feelings on the issue. He doesn’t sound like an unreasonable guy. But regardless, you shouldn’t deceive someone just because you don’t see eye to eye on everything. —Dave

You haven’t found the right job Dear Dave, I lost my job a couple of weeks

ago, and I’m having a tough time finding part-time work to bridge the gap until another position comes along. I’ve got a masters’ degree, and I’ve been wondering if that’s hurting my chances in the interim. I’m really eager to stay on track paying off my debts. Should I dumb down my résumé? Jamie Dear Jamie, Honestly, if it’s only been a couple of weeks, I think you probably just haven’t found the right thing. There are lots of people out there with big-time résumés who have been forced to go part-time in today’s job market. It’s not unusual right now for UPS or FedEx managers to see people with your level of education wanting to throw boxes. Whether they’re trying to get out of debt or they’re unemployed or underemployed, it’s just part of the economic strain the country’s going through at the moment. I really like your drive, though,

and the fact that you’re actively trying to find a solution to your problem tells me that you’re the kind of person who won’t be denied. Because of this, I think some really good things will begin to happen for you in the coming weeks and months. But let’s not go down the path of omitting things from your résumé. Think about what would happen if your boss discovered you hadn’t truthfully represented yourself and your background? I know if it were me, I’d have to wonder if I could really trust someone who did that. —Dave
