Illinois Law Now!
Question: Even though I signed up on the federal government’s do-not-call registry, I still get several robocalls. Do I have any recourse? Answer: Unfortunately, placing your phone number in the do-not-call registry will not stop all telemarketing calls. Also, be aware that political solicitations and calls from charities are not covered by the registry. However, if a third-party telemarketer calls on behalf of a charity, you may ask not to receive any more calls from that specific charity. Complaints to the government on unsolicited phone calls are up significantly since the do-not-call registry was established. The best thing to do is either hang up or not return the call. Another option is to contact your phone provider and ask them to block the number, but be sure to ask if there’s a charge for that service. You may also want to report the incidents to the Federal Trade Commission and the Illinois Attorney General’s office. Question: As the owner of a small company, can I deny employment based on criminal convictions? Answer: The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission advises businesses to assess a job candidate with a criminal history on the severity of his/her crime, and to give job applicants a chance to explain their background, taking into consideration references and rehabilitative efforts. They also suggest documenting in writing the justification for employment decisions made for those with criminal histories. Question: What Illinois laws govern the hunting of various types of game? Answer: Illinois law allows hunting of various types of game, including deer, turkey, and small game such as squirrels. Waterfowl and doves are also considered fair game. All hunting in Illinois is subject to seasonal restrictions and specifications. Also, the proper Illinois hunting license must be obtained prior to any hunting activity. An applicant must have resided in the state for 30 days prior to submitting an application. Hunters born after January 1, 1980, must have completed the Hunter Education Course as provided by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. For more information about Illinois law, visit www. illinoislawyerfinder.com. If you have a legal question, send it to illinoislawcolumn@isba.org.

“Christmas Memories” Annual Home Decorating Contest
Members of the Dyer Community Foundation (DCF) will once again share their enthusiasm for the Christmas Holiday by sponsoring a “Christmas Memories” home decorating contest. In its fourth year, this year’s contest will concentrate on the memories of Christmas with the sights, sounds, and smells of the season. They carry a certain nostalgia allowing us to relive the magical moments of our favorite Christmas memories. Remember how you used to drive or walk around the neighborhoods looking at all the decorations. This year’s focus revolves around the resident that shows heart and soul while capturing the true meaning of Christmas!
The “Residential Christmas Home Decorating Contest” is limited to residents within the city limits of Dyer, IN. Judges are members of the DCF and they will be out in full force at dusk on December 15, 2012 for judging eligible homes. The entrants must be a resident of Dyer and occupant of the residence to qualify. First Place winners will not be eligible for First Place two consecutive years, but will be eligible for other awards. There will be three winners; first, second, and third place. Please note: Selection will not be based on the quantity of decorations but the quality of the entire display.
Entry forms will be available at the Town of Dyer and the Dyer Police Station. Contest details will be in the town’s newsletter, Shopper, and Times in November’s editions. You can enter your own home or recommend a neighbor. To enter, just mail, hand deliver, or email the entry form to: Dyer Community Foundation, President Julie Baranowski 219.865.0915 One Town Square, Dyer, IN 46311 Dyercommunityfoundation@gmail.com Deadline for entries is noon on December 7, 2012.

Holidays Bring an Increased Risk for Fires in the Home As the winter holiday season approaches, anticipation builds for Thanksgiving feasts, family get-togethers and festive parties. But, for Ross Van Drunen of PuroClean by Van Drunen, a leader in property damage restoration, there is a different, and much less pleasant, sort of anticipation. Van Drunen knows that the holidays bring an increased risk of home structure fires – many of them involving cooking, Christmas trees, holiday decorations and candles – and the experts from PuroClean by Van Drunen may be called in to help a Munster homeowner deal with the tragic aftermath of a holiday fire. “Each time we are called to help a family restore their home and bring their lives back to ‘normal’ after a fire, we think about the small steps that might have been taken to prevent that fire from starting,” said Van Drunen. “Most of those preventive actions are really just common sense – but it’s easy to lose track of them in the hectic days around a holiday.” As the holidays approach, Van Drunen offers the following reminders from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) to help homeowners keep safety a priority as holiday celebrations ramp up: Thanksgiving Cooking Safety Fact: The NFPA discourages the use of outdoor gas-fueled turkey fryers that immerse the turkey in hot oil. According to the NFPA, the use of turkey fryers by consumers can lead to devastating burns, other injuries and the destruction of property. * Consider purchasing your fried turkey from a grocery store, specialty food retailer or restaurant. * Investigate new outdoor turkey cooking appliances that do not
use oil. Check to see that they carry a label from a recognized testing laboratory * For all the turkey “go-withs,” remember that most cooking fires start at the stovetop. Candle Safety Fact: December is the peak month for home candle fires. More than half of all candle fires start because the candle was placed too close to something that could catch fire. * Use “flameless” candles whenever possible. Today’s choices look and smell like “real” candles. * Don’t leave children alone in a room with a burning candle. * Don’t burn candles in rooms where people may fall asleep – like bedrooms. Two of five U.S. candle fires begin in the bedroom. “Prevention is the best and most effective way to help control fire risk during the holidays and every day. But, if a fire does break out, the most important thing to focus on is saving lives,” said Van Drunen. “If a fire breaks out during a party, it’s always safest to leave and call in the professionals. But if you do try to fight the fire yourself, make sure that others are getting out and that you have access to an exit.” If the unthinkable happens and your home is damaged by fire, Van Drunen reminds homeowners that PuroClean by Van Drunen is on call 24 hours a day, even on holidays. “Calling in a restoration professional as soon as possible after a fire can help you minimize claims for fire and smoke damage to property and possessions,” says Van Drunen.

Giving Thanks—Thornton Township Style
Internet Edition
Last Saturday, over 2,000 people enjoyed a Thanksgiving dinner and festivities compliments of Thornton Township. The fieldhouse at South Suburban College was the location for this annual event. Many elected officials were in attendance to help Frank and the Thornton Township team serve local residents. A traditional Thanksgiving meal was served with the help of Jimboo’s Catering of South Holland. The holidays were officially started and everyone had a great time thanks to many volunteers who helped to make it a success. Thornton Township continues to serve the residents of over 17 municipalities which make up the largest township in Frank Zuccarelli helps serve a township resident. Illinois.

Neuromas
Neuromas are a scarring of a sheath surrounding the nerve. They usually occur between the 3rd and 4th toes but can be found elsewhere as well. Symptoms include feeling a click in the ball of the foot, or electrical shocks shooting to the ends of the affected toes. Surgery is nearly always needed to alleviate the symptoms although injections, padding or physical therapy can help. If you have any questions concerning neuromas or any other foot problems, please stop by or call my office during office hours.

Lt. Governor Sheila Simon Visits Governors State University Affordability, retention, and college completion – all key components of Governors State University’s commitment to students – took the spotlight Tuesday during Lt. Governor Sheila Simon’s visit to the university. During her two-and-a-half hour visit, Simon met with GSU students, faculty, staff, and administrators. She called on federal, state and higher education officials to work together to keep college affordable so thousands of Illinois students can earn the credentials needed for good-paying jobs. “In order to retain and attract high-wage and high-skills jobs in Illinois, we will need 60 percent of our working-age population to hold college credentials by 2025,” Simon said. “We cannot expect students to complete college if they cannot afford college. I urge our state, federal and higher education leaders to work together to ensure college is not only accessible to the privileged, when it will be a prerequisite for a good job in our state.” President Elaine P. Maimon thanked Simon for her efforts to make college education affordable and accessible in Illinois. Simon is considered Governor Pat Quinn’s point person on education reform. “I admire Lt. Governor Simon’s commitment to making a college education affordable and accessible,” Dr. Maimon said. “Her visit to GSU gave us an opportunity to showcase what we are doing, specifically the Dual Degree Program and our plans for first-year students. The lieutenant governor is passionate about student success, and we are, too.” Simon is visiting all 12 public universities in Illinois this fall to hold College Affordability Summits with students, faculty and administrators. Simon has outlined three ways stakeholders can work together to make college affordable – consumer protections, targeted assistance, and tax credits for tuition payments. According to a College Board trends report published last month, costs at public and private universities nationwide increased more than 4 percent this school year, while the cost of community college increased more than 5 percent since last school year. Compounding the burden, federal student aid

declined for the first time in three years. GSU officials pointed out that Governors State has the most affordable tuition of any public university in Illinois. The Dual Degree Program, a national model for college completion, offers a proven path to seamless, successful transfer from community college to university. GSU has long been a leader in working with non-traditional students to help them achieve their education goals. Dr. Maimon said she supports Lt. Governor Simon’s initiatives to encourage more students to graduate with high quality degrees and cited the GSU Promise program as an example of working towards accomplishing that goal. “We have established an endowment to support the GSU Promise, offering low-income students in the Dual Degree Program the opportunity to complete both the associate and bachelor’s degrees debt-free,” Dr. Maimon said.
Year-End Scholarship Giving communities. As you consider your year-end tax planning, we hope you will make good use of the income tax charitable deduction. No matter your income, if you itemize, you will lower your taxes through charitable giving. The amount of the savings will depend on your tax bracket. Gift ideas are not limited to cash/check. Gifts of stock, insurance and planned gifts/bequests are also good ways to take advantage of longer-term tax savings. All contributions to the SSCF are tax-deductible (TIN: 23- 7191736). The Foundation staff works cooperatively with individuals and organizations to develop a donor plan of any level. New scholarships can also be established with a $750 donation. Donations may be made online at www.ssc.edu/foundation or mailed to: SSC Foundation, 15800 S. State Street, South Holland, IL 60473 In carrying out our mission and purpose, the SSC Foundation once again awarded over $120,000 in total awards 2012, and has now awarded over $1.2 million since 1987. For more information, please contact the Foundation Office at (708) 596-2000, ext. 2697 or email Foundation@ssc.edu.
The South Suburban College Foundation 2012 Donor Drive is still in progress, and they are seeking support from the local community to help make a difference in the lives of SSC students. The SSC Foundation provides scholarship assistance each year to many students who otherwise would be unlikely to begin or complete their college education. Scholarship opportunities are critical for SSC students. Many are struggling to balance family, employment, and school responsibilities while they are often unable to receive Financial Aid. The majority of SSC scholarship recipients do not qualify for any other type of financial assistance. Scholarship money is provided primarily through this fall Donor Drive. The SSCF Directors have set this year’s fundraising goal at $100,000. One-hundred percent (100%) of Donor Drive donations benefit scholarship and student assistance funds. Whether it is a high school graduate, an unemployed resident looking for a career change, or a single parent pursuing their college degree for the first time, the SSC Foundation offers scholarship assistance to all students in need.

who assisted him the day of installation he could not have completed the project. He is also thankful for help and advice given to him by Lansing Cut Stone, Superior Stone and Rogan Granite Industries. Kevin chose the library for his project because he is a frequent library user and believes it is a great public gathering space.
Pictured is Kevin Dolinar and his crew working on the brick walk he installed at the Lansing Public Library. This was Kevin’s Eagle Scout Project.

Or you may just be like me and looking for stocking stuffer ideas in general! As a child growing up my Mum had two stockings for us: one giant one with our main gifts in and one small one to hang. It ALWAYS had a tangerine in the bottom of it. I wish I could tell you why but I’m really not sure. Let me know if anyone knows!!

Skyfall (2012) 143 min - Action | Adventure | Crime - 9 November 2012 (USA) SYNOPSIS: Bond’s loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost. REVIEW: When a villain from M’s past resurfaces to cause destruction, Agent James Bond, 007 - recently returned after a debilitating injury - is put on the case! Skyfall is stylish, exciting, and visually gorgeous in every way imaginable, but is most impressive for its thoughtful, emotional exploration of Bond’s identity. Who is James Bond? Is he damaged goods following the only clear path he sees, or an unfeeling cog in a dysfunctional machine? Is there any place left in the world for him at all? It’s fascinating to see Bond grapple with these profoundly human issues, especially with Craig in the part. Skyfall is carefully constructed, in fact, to make Bond reactionary, as the villain – Raoul Silva (Javier Bardem) – offers a dark, inverted mirror image that only furthers 007’s identity crisis. Silva has a history with MI6, and M in particular; he’s out for vengeance, and in a rare display of

moral ambiguity for James Bond villains, one cannot immediately dismiss Silva’s reasoning. It is not hard for the audience – or Bond, for that matter – to understand why Silva wants his revenge, and that makes Bond’s choices all the more crucial and revealing. Skyfall puts many pieces into place for future adventures, bringing back ‘classic’ elements absent from Craig’s previous outings. I will not spoil most of them here, but it is fair to talk about this film’s Q, played brilliantly by Ben Whishaw. Young, socially closeted, technologically gifted, and more than a little arrogant, Whishaw’s Q is a fresh, fascinating take on a familiar fan favorite, and exemplifies what great work Mendes and his team do making recognizable parts of the 007 mythos modern, relevant, and exciting. With Q, the gadgets, the ‘Bond girls,’ the flirting, or even the one-liners, Mendes works very hard to take previous ‘throwaway’ elements – the kinds of obligatory characters or kiss-off moments that would appear briefly in earlier Bond films – and make them crucial to the fabric of 007’s world. The finale, in particular, is a glorious exercise in spatial relations and slow-burn action, the sort of unforgettable sequence viewers will discuss for years to come. Skyfall is the best James Bond film of all time, offering a thoroughly entertaining and thoughtprovoking examination of why 007 endures, both as an on-screen legend and as a harrowing secret agent. On a scale of 1-10, I give this one a 10 My 2¢ -B You can read more of my reviews online at: www. themotionpicturereviewer. blogspot.com

Stay Safe While You Shop This Holiday Season The National Crime Prevention Council and AlertID provide holiday shoppers with tips to remain safe from financial and physical crimes while they shop in stores and online Between the recent rise in counterfeit goods sold online, the increasing ubiquity of identity theft, and the unfortunate occurrences of robberies and assaults, shoppers should take extra care to mind their personal and financial safety around the holidays—a time of increased spending. The National Crime Prevention Council, home of McGruff the Crime Dog, has tips to help you enjoy shopping safely while getting those great holiday bargains: Shopping in Stores • Do not buy more than you can carry. Plan ahead by taking a friend with you or asking a store employee to help you carry your packages to the car. • Save all receipts. Print and save all confirmations from your online purchases. Start a file folder to keep all receipts together and to help you verify credit card or bank statements as they come in. • Don’t flash the cash. Consider alternate options to pay for your merchandise, such as onetime or multiuse disposable credit cards or money orders, including at online stores. • Wait until asked by a cashier before taking out your credit card or checkbook. An enterprising thief would love to shoulder surf to get your account information. Walking to and From Your Car • Be informed about your surroundings. Use the free mobile app available from AlertID™ to receive alerts about registered sex offenders living and working in the vicinity of your shopping venue. 2007 Honda CRV 2WD EX, exc. cond.

• Deter pickpockets. Carry your purse close to your body or your wallet inside a coat or front trouser pocket. • Have your keys in hand when approaching your vehicle. Check the back seat and around the car before getting in. • Tell a security guard or store employee if you see an unattended bag or package. The same applies if you are using mass transit. • Do not leave packages visible in your car. Lock them in the trunk, or if possible, take them directly home. Shopping With Small Children • If you are shopping with children, make a plan in case you are separated from each other. • Select a central meeting place. • Teach them to know they can ask mall personnel or store security employees if they need help. • Have them memorize or keep your cell phone number handy. • Keep up-to-date photos and accurate descriptions of each child electronically with AlertID’s My Family Wallet™. Should they go missing, this information can be sent quickly to law enforcement when every moment counts. Shopping Online • Before surfing the Internet, secure your personal computers by updating your security software. Everyone’s computer should have anti-virus, anti-spyware, and anti-spam software, as well as a good firewall installed. • Keep your personal information private and your password secure. Do not respond to requests to “verify” your password or credit card information unless you initiated the contact. Legitimate businesses will not contact you in 2008 Chrysler 300 Stk#P2586 $18,992.

How to buy a home after foreclosure
arthur v. veal iv Many families who are good, honest, hard working families now have credit issues or foreclosures on their name due to job loss and income reduction. Well if you are one of the unfortunate families that has lived thru a foreclosure or you have credit issues due to job loss, you may feel that you will never be able to buy a home again. It is true that most families that face foreclosure have a very difficuly time getting a loan to buy a new home, there are exceptions to this and if you want to buy a home in the future you can take smalls teps now to work toward this goal. So here are some steps you can take to begin the process of working toward homeownership again. Remember, this is not an overnight process so be patient and take your time. Step 1: Reestablish an income stream Before you can even begin to think about purchasing a home after foreclosure you must make sure your today bills are taken care of. Its not enough to simply get another job, you must budget and know how much you will have each month to apply toward settling old debts. Make a realistic budget and itemize all your debts that need to be paid off. Step 2: Begin settling debts When you have some money to pay debts off then begin talking with lenders to
pay off debts. Make an offer for a set amount to settle a debt and if that creditor says no to your offer then take that same amount to the next creditor and ask them if they will take it. Continue this pattern until one of your creditors settle your debt for this amount. Once that happens then start over again once you have some more funds to apply to debt. Step 3: Establish new credit After debts are setlled you must establish some new credit. You must show the credit bureau that you are capable of paying debts. Establish credit with secured credit cards, or passbook savings loans, or any other group that will extend you credit provided they report to your credit report. The worst thing you can do is pay your debts and stop using your credit. You wont move forward if you don’t use your credit. Finally, after a year or so of credit history, begin talking with lenders and see what they say about your credit. Also, establish some savings to put toward down payment. This process is slow but it works so if you are serious about eventually getting back into a home, layout your plan and then go work it. Till next week, Good luck and God Bless and remember… If you want to sell your house on terms check out our informative website at www. sellonterms.com for more information.

Michael Sena’s Pro-Fit: Program Fitness for Results™ Customized Wellness Programs for Men, Women and Children
Results. We all want them when it comes to health and fitness, but results can be elusive. Michael Sena’s Pro-Fit helps clients achieve success by using cutting-edge techniques paired with personal training. “We’re not a gym, we are a wellness and fitness program,” says co-owner Michael Sena, ACFS, ACPT, who has twice been named one of the Top 100 fitness trainers in America by Men’s Journal magazine and has been a fitness contributor to United Airlines, WGN Channel 9, and WNBC 5 for many years. He is also the author of Lean Mom, Fit Family (Rodale, 2005).
Program for Results The program begins with a before and after body morphing and assessment using a computerized program called the Visual Fitness Planner™. A Fitness Professional inputs the client’s current information (such as weight, height, and lifestyle) and the Planner makes a recommendation on the type of nutritional program and exercise frequency needed to reach weekly goals. An avatar shows the client’s current body image, another avatar displays what the results will look like after following the prescribed nutrition, lifestyle, and fitness plan. The Training Plan Three group training sessions each week, of no more than eight people, directed by two (2) knowledgeable, experienced, and certified personal trainers, follow. Each client wears a Polar™ heart rate monitor as Michael and his trainers keep a close eye to make sure each client is safe and moving through the five target heart rate zones needed for a successful workout.
Beginner, intermediate, and advanced clients can work out in the same session because activities are modified for every level. Workouts are changed weekly. Michael says this is because muscles can become complacent, and then results won’t come as they should. Each one-hour workout includes a cardio warm-up, dynamic flexibility, strength training, and a cool down.
A Different Approach A well-balanced program design is important for obtaining results. The keys are cardio-vascular warm-up, dynamic stretching, strength training, and a proper cool down. There are no cardio machines in the studio: no treadmills, no elliptical machines, no stationary bikes. “We are a functional studio so we work without them. We walk, jog, high march, and skip around the track during the cardio warm-up,” explains Michael. “Then there is a preparation for strength training known as dynamic stretching. This gets the body ready for loading which prevents injuries by readying the joints and tendons for the workout.” There are also very few weight machines. Again, this is by design. Your body moves in three planes: frontal plane; transverse plane; and sagittal plane. Instead of relying on machines to train the muscles, Sena’s training team focuses on functional bodyweight movements, which means mimicking life’s movements by incorporating activities such as getting up and down from the floor; adding resistance with suspension straps and vibration ropes; or lifting weights such as kettle bells and dumbbells, or using the most advanced FTS (functional
training system) body weight unit. People are not on machines when they are going through their day,” explains Michael. “Michael Sena’s Pro-Fit is the antithesis of that. We understand the activities of daily living and the demands on the human body are not just push/pull.” The cool down consists of walking down your heart rate, then performing static stretching and yoga postures for perfectly balanced workout sessions. A Tranquil Space Step into Sena’s studio and you’d be forgiven for thinking you’ve walked into a spa. But that’s exactly the look Sena and his wife Tina were hoping to create when they designed the space. A nutrition bar with protein smoothies, herbal teas, supplements, and healthy baked goods for sale welcome clients as they come in the front door; pumpkin and bronze colored walls surround the central workout area; and the changing rooms are pure comfort with a television/sitting area, spa products, and luxurious fittings and fixtures. “I really wanted the facility to look like a spa---beautiful, healthy and welcoming,” says Tina. Michael & Tina’s Motto “It’s really hard to get fit on your own, and our goal is to educate people to help them get healthy and make good choices,” Michael says. “And that leads to results.” Michael Sena’s Pro-Fit , Pro-fitresults.com or call 219-322-2660, 101 Joliet (RT 30), Dyer, Indiana 46311.

Thanksgiving Musings from Those Famous - and Not So Famous arlo kallemeyn Give thanks for unknown blessings already on their way. ~Native American Saying God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say “thank you?” ~William A. Ward Coexistence: what the farmer does with the turkey - until Thanksgiving. ~Mike Connolly Thanksgiving is possible only for those who take time to remember; no one can give thanks who has a short memory. ~Author Unknown God has two dwellings; one in heaven, and the other in a meek and thankful heart. ~Izaak Walton Thanksgiving Day, a function which originated in New England two or three centuries ago when those people recognized that they really had something to be thankful for - annually, not oftener
- if they had succeeded in exterminating their neighbors, the Indians, during the previous twelve months instead of getting exterminated by their neighbors, the Indians. Thanksgiving Day became a habit, for the reason that in the course of time, as the years drifted on, it was perceived that the exterminating had ceased to be mutual and was all on the white man’s side, consequently on the Lord’s side; hence it was proper to thank the Lord for it and extend the usual annual compliments. ~Mark Twain If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, “thank you,” that would suffice. ~Meister Eckhart Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Arlo Kallemeyn Shopper Publisher and big fan of saying thanks.

Give Something That Means Something This Holiday Season
Join the American Red Cross and offer hope by giving blood. During the 2012 holiday season, the American Red Cross asks everyone to support its mission by giving something meaningful -- giving hope to those in need. Something meaningful like a blood donation is a gift that doesn’t cost a thing but can give joy and hope to a hospital patient in need. Every day, regardless of the date on the calendar, the Red Cross must collect approximately 17,000 pints of blood for patients. The need for blood remains constant during the holiday season, but busier schedules, holiday travel and other seasonal activities can leave little time to donate blood. Help the Red Cross maintain a stable blood supply this holiday by making an appointment to donate. Every two seconds, a patient in the U.S., someone needs blood. The only way to provide lifesaving blood is through the generosity of donors who give an hour of their day to roll up a sleeve and donate. “Only when volunteer donors make time to help save a life can we be sure that blood is available for those in need,” said Sharyn Whitman, CEO of the Red Cross Indiana-Ohio Blood Services Region. “Giving blood and to help others is a wonderful way to give something meaningful this holiday season. Please add making a blood donation to your holiday to-do list.” Discover the true meaning of giving this holiday season by donating blood. All blood types are needed to ensure an adequate blood supply during the holidays, especially donors with type O positive, O negative, A negative or B negative blood. Come to donate December 1 – 31 and be entered into a region-wide weekly drawing for a $250 gasoline gift card. Upcoming Blood Drives • Tuesday, Dec. 4, from 1:30 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. at Highland

The economy may be in the midst of recovering from the Great Recession, but relief still has yet to come for the 13 million people who are still looking for work, especially for single mothers that are dealing with a struggle unlike their unemployed peers. Not only can they not find work, but they are also unable to find work that provides benefits, particularly when it comes to child-care. The unemployment rate among single mothers has long surpassed those among married men and women. In 2011, the unemployment rate for single mothers was 14.6 percent, compared with 6.8 percent among married men and 6.3 percent among married mothers, reports Economix. Though unemployment insurance has become an important source of assistance for single mothers, the Institute for Women’s Policy Research states that women have historically had less access to unemployment benefits compared to men. Unfortunately, states have established regulations that have consequently worked against single mothers. For example, most states restrict eligibility for unemployment against those who experience involuntary job loss. Also excluded are those who quit for reasons such as a loss of child-care assistance or the need to tend to a sick family member.

With conditions such as these, how is it expected for single mothers to be the nurturer and the breadwinner of their family? Public programs haven’t been much help either. According to Economix, enrollment in the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program, or TANF, declined from 80 percent in 1995 to 40 percent by 2005. Annual TANF benefits are below the poverty line and typically amount to less than $5 per person per day. Access to food stamps has improved but inflation has eroded the combined value of TANF and food-stamp benefits by about 23 percent between 1996 and 2010. Then there is the dreaded time limit that single mothers face for receiving benefits—federal rules impose a lifetime limit of 60 months for TANF and 99 weeks for unemployment insurance. Not to take away from the fact that jobs are being created, but a real concerted effort needs to occur in job creation and to provide more assistance for families who are struggling to make ends meet while their benefits slowly expire.

we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One and now lately instituted, for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed…..” When President Washington stated “particularly the national One now lately instituted” he was referring to the first amendment to the constitution. Some people believe that the first amendment means that religious expression in public place should not be allowed. The men who gave us the first amendment obviously did not intend to impose such restrictions. It was these same men, the day after they (congress) adopted the first amendment, who asked President George Washington to declare a day of Thanksgiving to God. Think about Washington’s words. What do they mean to you? May God bless you and your family…Happy Thanksgiving.

KEVIN BRADLEY Chef Tony Sanfilippo was born in Palermo, Sicily where his great grandfather opened up the first family restaurant in 1920. Tony remembers, as young as age five, being in the kitchen, tasting things and learning to cook while his siblings and cousins were outside playing, though his childhood fantasy was to become a helicopter pilot. In 1965, the family moved north, settling in Turin. Here, in 1978, Tony earned the rank of Chef De Cuisine, a four year degree from The Culinary Art Institute (English translation). In 1981, he went on to earn the rank of Chef Master, the highest culinary degree. He says, “In Italy the hospitality business is taken very seriously. Even the waiters must go to school for a year.” Tony began his career as a Chef at Turin’s Hotel Principi di Piemonte, a five star hotel. He went on to work at several other fine establishments in Italy, Spain, Morocco, Sicily, and The Costa Cruise Lines, eventually, coming to The United States in 1985. Tony’s business partner, Leslie Dianda, was born in Chicago but grew up in Schererville, Indiana. Following the advice of her father, “Try it once; If you like it, keep doing it, if not, at least you tried it,” Leslie went to school for accounting, which wasn’t right for her… realizing she needed to be with people, she earned a degree in Hospitality Management from Purdue Cal in 1991, and an MBA from Indiana Wesleyan in

On October 3, 1789 President George Washington made a proclamation of a national day of Thanksgiving. I won’t quote his declaration in its entirety but this is what I felt was important to share as well as a little about the context for this declaration. “Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly implore His protection and favor; and whereas both houses of congress have by their joint committee requested me to recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness. Now therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the twenty-sixth day of November next, to be devoted by the People of these United States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficial author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection, for the peaceable and rational manner in which

Renee N. Hale, DSL Are you leading someone, or a group of people? How did it happen? Were you assigned or asked to do it, did you volunteer, or did you wind up as “the leader” by default because no one else wanted the responsibility? No matter how you end up leading, and whether it’s at work, in the community, school, or church—the responsibility is the same: lead followers to work well together, unite around a common purpose, and achieve excellent results. How do you do it? It seems like it’s all about you, but then again—no; it’s all about who you lead! Actually, it’s not one or the other, it’s both. Keep the “you” focused on people, purpose and performance. Then, facilitate followers as they prosper in their efforts and produce great things. First, remember that leadership is personal. Relationships matter; if something is said or an action taken toward someone, it’s personal. It’s that simple. If an offending person doesn’t realize that you perceive his or her behavior negatively, then you must respond honestly in expressing disappointment in their behavior. This honest response can facilitate communication, encourage reconciliation and build good relationships. If you don’t respond honestly, you may nurture a festering negativity. Model and encourage The Golden
Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Second, develop a shared vision. Know where you are leading and inspire others to join you! This shared vision motivates people to unite around a common purpose. It’s exciting to work with people when their combined efforts—or synergy— catalyzes the task. Cast the shared vision before the group often. When everyone is “on the same page”, the camaraderie propels people towards accomplishment. Finally, aim for high performance. For “high performance” capacity, involve everyone and create a climate of trust. Leadership experts Kouzes and Posner tell us, “Collaboration is the critical competency for achieving and sustaining high performance.” Leading is all about you—what you choose to say, do and be for your followers. And it’s really all about them, too. Give of yourself and facilitate their success. Together you’ll be great! Dr. Renée N. Hale is founder and president of WellSpirit Consulting Group, Inc.—engaging organizations around the world to make business worth living. Visit www. wellspiritconsulting.com today. © 2012 Renée N.

Treasured Letters From The Past MARJORIE alice DEVRIES You know those couples who have silly nicknames for each other like “honey bunny” or “sweets”? Ok. I’m like that. But anyway, in this WWII letter, the husband calls his wife “mommy darling”, and she calls him “daddy.” This is good to know before reading it, so you don’t think you’re reading a letter from a soldier to his mother (like I thought at the beginning) and think this would’ve been a crazy reality show on TLC. This letter is written by Sgt. Bob Buetow, of the 703rd Tank Destroyer Battalion, to his wife in Chicago: Saturday, December 16, 1944 Hello mommy darling, First of all let me say I’m sorry I didn’t write last night, but our lighting system was on the blink so it was impossible. I got a birthday package with Anne’s name on it containing a very nice box of candy that was appreciated by everybody here. If it was from her please give her my thanks, honey, and tell her how much I appreciate receiving it from her, which is a lot. Boy, you certainly were keeping occupied in your open time making that suit of yours and fixing up the apartment. That’s one of
the many things I like about you, honey—besides being an ideal sweetheart to take out on a date you’re also my idea of the perfect person to look after a home. You do so many things well dearest, and I’m forever thanking my lucky stars because I got you for a wife. I’m glad to hear you’ve started buying your Christmas presents for me, mommy darling. That sweater sounds pretty nice. Say, do you know the three reasons why a girl wears a sweater? One is to keep warm, and the other two are obvious! Ouch, honey, don’t hit me! Honey, if you keep on feeling bad the way you have been, please go back and see the doctor again. I can’t have my mommy sick when I’m not there to look after her, you know and I’ll feel much better myself if I know you’re ok. We’ll continue with “Daddy’s” letter to “Mommy” next week. Marjorie Alice DeVries is a freelance writer, devoted to sharing the priceless treasure of war letters, each one a unique window into a life that once was.

Locally, students can pick up a copy of a scholarship application at the Mall Management Office at River Oaks Center. Applications also can be downloaded at the SYF website at www.syf.org/our-initiatives/ scholarships/community-application or http://www.syf.org/wp-content/ uploads/2012/11/SMS-2013-application.pdf Any student who will be graduating in the class of 2013 and lives within 50 miles of a Simon property is eligible.

college, university, vocational or technical school. In 2012, the Simon Youth Scholarships program awarded $1.2 million to 378 students nationwide. “Our mission is to ignite hope for a brighter future in students, and our Foundation is proud to partner with River Oaks Center to award scholarships that will remove some of the financial obstacles that would otherwise prevent a student from achieving the dream of a college education,” says J. Michael Durnil, Ph.D., the President and CEO of SYF. The 2013 SYF Community Scholarship recipients will be selected by Scholarship Management Services, a third-party administrator. Students are selected based on a variety of criteria, including financial need, academic performance, leadership skills and participation in school and community activities. Those students who are the first in their family to pursue a post secondary education will also be given close consideration.

Thornton Township Mails Refund Checks By Arlo Kallemeyn Frank Zuccarelli and Thornton Township officials began mailing about 16,000 checks to local property owners who paid their property tax bills and are now getting refunds. The total amount being rebated is about $550,000, however Zuccarelli said there are approximately 2,000 property owners whose applications for rebates have yet to be processed – this could raise the amount of the refund. Zuccarelli said local legislators, along with county and federal officials, have had good success in getting grants for the township. “We have had very successful local state legislators who have been able to get us grants and other sources of funding,” Zuccarelli said. “That has resulted in the larger surpluses that we are rebating now.” Using that money to pay for some of the township programs meant that less of the money that was levied in local property taxes had to be used. That resulted in the rebates that now being mailed. Residents document that they live in Thornton Township and they paid their property tax bills two years ago. Most of those who qualify for the rebate will be homeowners, however, owners of apartment buildings can qualify if they actually live in one of the apartment units. “If they live in it, that’s fine,”
Thornton Township officials from left - Norb Ciposwski - Trustee, Frank M. Zuccarelli – Refund checks ready for the post office Supervisor, Robert Hunt – Director of Finance. _______________________________________ ___________________________________________________
Zuccarelli said. “But they can’t get a rebate if they own it but live somewhere else.” “It seems like everyone is having a difficult time financially,” Zucarelli said. “Maybe that’s why we have so many applications.”
Thornton Township covers seventeen communities and is the largest township in Illinois. More information about their services to residents can be found at www.thorntontownship. com

FRIENDS OF JIM KNOLL TURN OUT IN DROVES FOR FUNDRAISER/MEMORIAL: The evening was a festival of Jim’s life, held at “Blue 82” on Wicker in St. John, one of the watering holes Jim and his fellow Realtors enjoyed after work. Friday November 16th, 2012 starting at 6 p.m. the sports bar was shoulder to shoulder with agents and brokers from Illinois and Indiana who came to show support for Jim’s widow Sandy and his daughter Jenna. Pictured here with Sandy and Jenna are Heather Peters and Janelle Longfellow. Janelle (whose look alike sister Realtor Rachael Port) is a cabaret singer who entertained the crowd with her dynamic vocals. Thousands of dollars in donated baskets of every variety were raffled off that night adding to the excitement and fun. All proceeds from the event went directly toward the family, with a special thanks going out to “Blue 82” for their consideration. Also pictured here areTed and Sandy VerHar who were neighbors of the Jim Knolls when they lived in South Holland. It was fun to see longtime second generation Realtors like Mike Buder and his wife Ali, Mark Haines, Tammy DeYoung, Mort Debs and his wife, Kent Magnuson, Cookie Zeleznik, Jessica Kiljkic and her daughter, Lender Mike Cavoto, and of course the whole crowd from RedKey Cares, (Marilou Mrjenovich and Brenda Tovsen, Jamie Cooper) the firm that sponsored the event. Rather than mourn his passing, Jim’s family and friends celebrated his life which is just about the best way to be remembered! Rest In Peace Dear Jim! *** LANSING COLUMBIAN LADIES TO MEET: The Lansing Columbian Ladies of Council 3540 will meet on Monday November 26th, 2012 for their annual Holiday Delights Christmas Party, starting at 6:30 p.m. at the Knights of Columbus Hall, 17800 Lorenz Avenue, Lansing, Il Persons attending should bring their favorite main dish, dessert, appetizer or salad for the group to taste.

SANDRIDGE NATURE CENTER IN SOUTH HOLLAND CELEBRATES 40 YEARS: The wonderful nature center located along Paxton Avenue in the unincorporated area east of the Bishop Ford hosted a Settlers Day that dazzled! The volunteers were out in droves in period dress, the TeePees and cabins depicted what life was in the early days of our nation and an exact replica chuck wagon created by Eagle Scout, Zachary Yorich of Lansing was dedicated to the center for permanent display. The wagon was the winning ticket for the Eagle Scout award and he is pictured here in front of the wagon explaining how it all came about to visitors. Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle was on hand for
LEARNING TO GRIND CORN AT SANDRIDGE NATURE CENTER: Pictured here with mortar and pestal teaching how to hand grind corn into cornmeal are Lansings Paul Schultz, Bill Tobia and Cathy Shoick along with Johnathan Wesley, 10, and Michael Wesley and Michael Bowers, 11. The adults all belong to the University of Illinois Extension Master Gardeners program. In the gardens that surround the group, there are separate plots for things such as a ‘pizza garden’ where all the vegetables and herbs that go into making a pizza are grown. The “Living History” of Pioneer living was an enchanted step back in time that provided a brief respite from the hustle and bustle of our social media centric lives. The gorgeous, summer like day helped along the enchantment. Way to go Sand Ridge Nature Center and Cook County Forest Preserves! *** B A N K S F E E D T H E H U N G RY AT THANKSGIVING: Blessings and Bravo to BankFinancial, 1901 Sibley, BMO Harris Bank, 530 Torrence and First Savings Bank of Hegewisch, 1100 Sibley Blvd. All three Calumet City banks are collecting canned goods and non perishable food for the holiday. The collection (in it’s 25th year ) is being coordinated again this year by 2nd Ward Alderman Leni Wosczynski and the Calumet City Resource Center will distribute the food. The food drive runs through November 30th, 2012 and we are encouraged to drop off a non perishable food at any of these banks during this time. The Resource Center is also in desperate need of cereals, paper products, soap and laundry detergent. Monetary donations are also welcome. We can send our checks (made payable to the Calumet City Resource Center) to Ald. Wosczynski at 204 Pulaski Road, Calumet City, Il 60409. What better way to celebrate the holiday than to help the less fortunate. Thank you in advance. *** R E S TO R AT I O N M I N I S T R I E S TO PARTICIPATE IN CHICAGOLAND DEALERS CARE CONTEST: Oak Lawn Toyota selected Restoration Ministries as its partner charity in Chicagoland Dealers Care--a program designed to deliver year-round suport to local nonprofit organizations and amplify the efforts already put forth by Chicagoland dealers.

As we sit down to the Thanksgiving table this year, lets say a little prayer not only for the food on the table but for each other, family, friends, co-workers and for our wonderful America.

JUDY WIATROWSKI There are so many interesting facts about turkeys. I like to share them right before the Holiday. It might be fun to share these turkey tidbits with others on Thanksgiving Day. -90% of the homes in America eat turkey on Thanksgiving. -The first Thanksgiving celebration was in 1621. -The first domesticated turkeys were in Mexico and Central America. -Benjamin Franklin actually lobbied to make the turkey a national symbol. -Arkansas produces the most turkeys of any other state. -Turkeys are able to adapt to a wide variety of habitats, however, most are found in hardwood forests with grassy areas. -Your best chance to see one is on a warm clear day or in a light rain. -Turkeys have heart attacks if they hear very loud noises. -They can drown if they look up when it is raining.

BRANDI SMITS Little Brother By Cory Doctorow Technology exists around every corner, behind every door. When something is so widespread, it can prove to be vulnerable as well. Marcus loves technology. He especially loves how easy it is for him to exploit it and use it for his own purposes. Known by h i s f e l l o w h ac k e r s as w1n5t0n, Marcus knows the weakness in various systems, like tricking the Gait-recognition software and hacking past the firewalls of the Vista4Schools computer system to freely access the Internet. If there was one thing Marcus was sure of, it was the power of technology. One day Marcus, along with his friends Darryl, Jolu, and Van, skipped school and set off to play their favorite game Harajuku Fun Madness, an Alternate Reality Game in which players use GPS and Wi-Fi to located clues and move farther in the game. While out searching for the next clue, a terrorist attack is made on San Francisco, relatively close to Marcus and his friends. In the midst of the panicked crowds, Marcus and his friends are mistakenly accused of being part of the terrorist group. Marcus stands up to the Department of Homeland Security which results in

several days in solitary. When he is finally allowed to leave, the DHS threatens to continue watching him. Shortly after he is home, Marcus watches as the government becomes more and more paranoid and the privacy of the citizens is no longer a concern. Marcus decides to fight back. Using a free version of an Xbox that connects to the Internet and his superior hacker skills, Marcus constructs a connection called the Xnet that the DHS cannot control. Soon, now known only by the name, M1k3y, Marcus leads an army of hackers and protesters in a revolution fighting against inappropriate government control and hoping to reinstitute the importance of privacy. When things begin to fall from Marcus’ control, he must decide whether to face his opponents head on or be on the run forever. Doctorow’s novel is an amazing example of the importance of free speech in a world where technology can be used to enhance it or hinder it. While Little Brother is full of several technical phrases and terms, even someone unfamiliar with hacking and computers will enjoy this novel. The thrilling story set in the very near future will get you thinking about who is exactly watching you and what you can do to prevent it. Home Repair & Improvements.
