ELMHURST — Sixth Ward Alderman Steve Morley is ready to get back to business as Elmhurst’s next mayor. “I’m very excited, and I’m happy,” he said. “At some point, the campaign can be a distraction to the work we do. I’m looking forward to working with the citizens of Elmhurst.” With all precincts reporting on Tuesday, Morley won 3,610 votes, or about 43 percent of the vote, compared with candidate Mark Mulliner’s 2,449 votes and candidate Diane Gutenkauf’s 2,326 votes. Vote totals are unofficial until certified. Morley’s top priority is to grow and attract business to Elmhurst. One of his first actions in office in early May will be re-seating the committees, he said. “We actually have a lot of city business pending, and some development stuff pending,” Morley said. “We need to concentrate on commercial development that fits well in the city of Elmhurst to broaden our tax base, and concentrate as a council on how to do what’s best for Elmhurst.” Morley, who is halfway through his second term as alderman, said he supports the new tax increment financing district on North York Road, the city’s fourth such district. However, he said the city doesn’t necessarily need any other new incentives or programs for developers or prospective business owners that it doesn’t already have. Closed City Council meetings about the Addison Avenue development in September violated the Open Meetings Act, according to the Illinois Attorney General’s Office, and Morley said he thinks the council needs more training on the law. Mulliner is the city’s longest-serving alderman in the 7th Ward. If elected, he had planned to “bring the city back to its core functions — infrastructure, public safety and economic development,” he

8ELECTION 2013

Elmhurst 7th Ward candidate concedes in close race By AMBER KROSEL akrosel@shawmedia.com ELMHURST — Twenty-three votes currently separate the two men running for the 7th Ward in Elmhurst, but one conceded Wednesday afternoon. Incumbent Patrick Wagner has received 51 percent of the vote over candidate and former alderman Charles Mueller. Wagner received 599 votes Tuesday night, while Mueller received 576. “It’s very close,” said Mueller, who congratulated Wagner on his tentative win. Before being elected in 2001 and serving through 2005, Mueller had been appointed to the 7th Ward. He decided to run again for the seat this year to address mainly flood control and reducing property taxes. “At the end of the day, Patrick is a stand-up guy and has a fabulous wife and a really great family,” Mueller said. “I also want to thank my support-

“At the end of the day, Patrick is a stand-up guy and has a fabulous wife and a really great family. I also want to thank my supporters, and ask that we all move forward with flood control and having reliable electricity and get something accomplished here in the 7th Ward ...” Charles Mueller Candidate for 7th Ward alderman ers, and ask that we all move forward with flood control and having reliable electricity and get something accomplished here in the 7th Ward where we can verify and have tangible results in regard to stormwater management.” He said he’s leaving his future candidacy options open if he does “in fact, lose by 23 votes.” Wagner was not immediately available for comment following the election. In the 5th Ward, incumbent Alderman Chris Healy received nearly 79 percent of the vote over challenger Robert Kevin “Bob” Kolb.

Healy said he’s grateful for the support he received from family, friends and residents. His priorities will remain the same, including focusing on electrical grid reliability and flooding. He wants to keep a Commonwealth Edison infrastructure upgrade on city officials’ minds. Additionally, once the city adds about 2 millions gallons in sewer capacity by mid2014 to early 2015, much of the pressure will be taken off the sewer systems. “Two main areas in the 5th Ward were hit hard (in 2010),” Healy said. “We have to come up with a solution to give those

areas an added level of protection.” In the 4th Ward, Kevin York, also a current alderman, beat challenger Mike Baker with just over 62 percent of the vote. “I worked very hard and did not take anything for granted. The campaign itself was very enlightening,” York said. “Talking to folks at over 750 residences in the 4th Ward gave me some very interesting perspectives on issues like the Elmhurst Memorial Healthcare Berteau Campus redevelopment, traffic concerns, stormwater management and perceptions of city government.”

York said his top priorities are to complete the development of Hahn and Addison streets, as well as identify and finish stormwater projects. The 1st Ward seat was the only other contested aldermanic race. Martha “Marti” Deuter will join the City Council after receiving just over 54 percent of the vote against candidate MaryNic Foster. Deuter said on Wednesday that she was honored to be elected. “I spent a lot of time during the campaign talking to residents, and I plan to address the issues that matter most to them, which is everything from stormwater management to parking and traffic safety issues,” she said. “I also want to work closely with the businesses in the 1st Ward. The downtown area is one of the things that attracts people to Elmhurst, and it’s important to make sure we keep it strong.” Vote totals are unofficial until certified.

A Routine Matter Medical experts recommend that adults and children undergo routine screening for changes in the appearance of their skin. Regular visits to the dermatologist are just as important as regular visits to the dentist in light of the fact that one in five Americans will develop some form of skin cancer in his or her lifetime. If there is any good news to report, it is that although skin cancer may one of the most common types of cancer, it is also one of the most preventable. Obviously, however, (pre)cancerous lesions must be found and properly diagnosed before they can be treated. The longer a person waits, the more difficult it will be to treat any skin cancer.

Our practice is located at

103 N. Haven, Suite 7, Elmhurst.

Risk factors for skin cancer vary for different types of skin cancer, but general risk factors include a lighter natural skin color, a family history of skin cancer, exposure to sun through work and play, and a history of sunburns early in life. Protect your skin year round by wearing sunscreen and protective clothing when outdoors and remain alert for skin abnormalities. PLEASE CALL ELMHURST

ELMHURST — Elmhurst College’s fourth-annual “Evening for Scholarships” benefit netted a record $300,000 to fund student scholarships, exceeding last year’s record by $60,000, according to a news release. Ninety-five percent of the proceeds from the event, held March 16 in the Frick Center, will go directly to fund student scholarships. CBS 2 News anchor Rob Johnson served as the master of ceremonies. A live auction,

performances by Elmhurst’s Wind Ensemble and Jazz Combo and a celebration of student achievements contributed to the festive atmosphere. College President S. Alan Ray reminded attendees of the crucial purpose of the evening: to raise money that will enable many financially stressed Elmhurst students to finish college. In the 2011-12 academic year, 96 percent of Elmhurst students received some form of financial aid. Several Elmhurst students who currently receive schol-

arships attended the event, including senior Scottie Williams, a marketing major from Woodridge. He spoke during the dinner and thanked donors for their generosity, calling it “an amazing gesture” on their part, according to the release. Williams, a record-setting running back for the Elmhurst football team, recently received the Gagliardi Trophy – the Division III equivalent of the Heisman Trophy – for his outstanding performance on the football field, in the classroom and serving the community.

Q: A:

Ask a Pro Do I need to do anything with my sump pump as the rainy season kicks off?

he arrival of spring presents many challenges for homeowners when it comes to their plumbing system. One of the most common areas in need of attention is the sump pump. Over the winter your sump pump may be subject to long periods of inactivity. In order to make sure you are protected from spring rains the sump pump system should be inspected and tested.

Start with a visual inspection of the discharge piping including the outside portion. It should be secure and if it discharges on to the ground, the water should run away from the building. Use a hose to ill the pit. Watch the water level as it rises. he pump should activate several inches before the water gets high enough to overlow. he pit should have a lid to prevent debris from falling in but it is still a good idea to inspect the pit for any foreign objects that may get lodged in the pump.

Mike Borowski Vice President

he electrical cord should be plugged into a grounded receptacle on a dedicated circuit. his will ensure that the pump will not fail because another appliance caused the circuit breaker to trip.

Finally, a backup pump is a must in many areas. hey are usually battery operated and provide protection if the main pump fails or a power outage occurs. Since many power outages are accompanied by heavy rainfall, a back up pump should be capable of pumping at least as many gallons per minute as the primary pump. A professional plumber can help you select a system that is right for your needs.

Members of the Elmhurst community and sports fans across the greater Chicago area recently shared fond memories of Cooper Rollow, a longtime resident who died at age 87 on March 29. The former Chicago Tribune sports editor’s big love was pro football, covering 32 Super Bowls in a row. A memorial is planned for May 19. Rest in peace, Coop. Elmhurst Memorial Healthcare and Edward Hospital in Naperville have officially signed their merger agreement, putting it on track to start this summer. Officials say the integrated health system will mean the potential for lower healthcare costs, improved care and greater access to clinical services.

Educators in Elmhurst School District 205 are focused on helping their students learn the skills, behaviors and critical knowledge that will enable them to realize success later in life. Similarly, the nation’s goal for public education is to develop students to be college and/or career ready by the time they graduate high school. At the same time, the district is constantly examining its own practices for ways of improving on already high levels of COMMUNITY performance. VOICE There are many sources of data being used in District 205. Charles By having multiple measures, Johns students, parents and the district can see progress on important skills over time. For the core academic areas, these goals are supported through the use of several helpful assessments. For several years, District 205 has used the Educational Planning and Assessment System that was developed by ACT to support its academic program and measure its performance to the national goal. The EPAS system has four over-arching benefits: student planning, instructional support, assessment and evaluation. Three assessments constitute EPAS, administered from eighth to 12th grade. These assessments are the EXPLORE, PLAN and the ACT. As previously noted, the EPAS provides a means of measuring a student’s progress through the high school years. In fact, ACT provides the College Readiness Benchmark Scores for each of the three assessments. ACT defines being “on track” as based on what score indicates a student is likely to earn a B in a freshman-level course at a moderately competitive college or university. While these assessments are helpful to students and educators alike, it is important to note that there is much more that goes into being “college or career ready” that is measured by these assessments. The schools in District 205 offer a broad range of experiences that are not measured by standardized assessments but are still vital to the development of young people and to their future successes. Experts on college readiness often suggest that skills in writing, an appreciation for the arts and trades, global understanding and language skills, as well as service within the community, are influential in college success.

Continued from page 9 force state government to live within its means. I joined many of my colleagues in sponsoring legislation to cut lawmaker pay and reduce or eliminate compensation for state board and commission members. These are all encouraging steps toward achieving fiscal responsibility and a balanced budget. But, there is more work for us to do in order to achieve true fiscal respon-

sibility for the taxpayers. I introduced House Bill 2377 to give voters the opportunity to eliminate the compensation of DuPage County’s six forest preserve commissioners and chairman. DuPage County’s forest preserve commissioners’ pay, pension and dental and medical benefits are drastically out of line with our neighboring counties. DuPage County’s generous packages are worth up to $149,577 annually in exchange for attending

RETRACTION In my political advertisement of April 5 included in this newspaper I indicated that one of the inancial supporters of my opponent in the aldermanic race was under indictment.

I apologize to Mr. Daniels and his friends and family for any suggestion to the contrary, and I deeply regret using political material in my ad that was factually inaccurate. Robert K Kolb

Conroy. Let me make this clear: Conroy’s legislation will not eliminate the DuPage County Forest Preserve. I have spoken with Conroy about this issue, and she believes that the DuPage County Forest Preserve serves a key role in preserving our beautiful parks here in DuPage County. Her bill (HB 2377) would create a ballot referendum that would put the elimination of the board’s compensation and benefits to a vote for the citizens of DuPage County. There is another bill (HB 2479), proposed by state Rep. Dennis Reboletti that would eliminate the DuPage County Forest Preserve Board and pass its responsibilities on to the DuPage County Board. It is important that we, as a Deb Conroy State Representative, 46th District community, understand the difference between the two bills. Conroy is a supporter of the parks Stop confusion over proposed House legislation and believes that combining the DuPage County Forest Preserve To the Editor: Board with the DuPage County There has been a lot of discussion and misinformation regarding Board would be detrimental to the the pending DuPage County Forest state of the DuPage County Forest Preserve. Please assist me in Preserve legislation that has spreading the word and informing been proposed by state Rep. Deb a weekly meeting, while other counties pay their commissioners a small stipend capped at $3,000 without benefits. If this bill passes, the power to cut politician pay would be placed directly in the hands of the voters. In these trying economic times, we cannot continue to ask hardworking families in DuPage County to fund extravagant compensation packages for elected officials responsible for attending one meeting a week. Instead, we should respect the public trust, invest our precious dollars into the forest preserve’s services for our families and stop forcing taxpayers to pay for disproportionate high politician pay.

A LOOK THROUGH THE KEYHOLE The congenital defect known as “coloboma of the iris” appears as a black notch of varying depth at the lower edge of the iris. This gash gives the pupil an irregular “keyhole” shape. It can also appear as a split in the iris from the pupil to the edge of the iris. Aside from being an inherited condition, coloboma may stem from trauma to the eye. All children with an iris coloboma should have a complete eye exam to look for other structural flaws of the eye, as the defect may extend to the retina, choroids, or optic nerve. A small coloboma may allow a secondary image to focus on the back of the eye, creating a ghost image. Young children know only what they see and not what they are supposed to see, so it is difficult for them to recognize that they have a vision-related problem. All children should have their eyes examined atleast by the time they enter school. Please call SKOWRON EYE CARE to schedule a comprehensive eye health examination for your child that includes screening for coloboma of the iris. Think of an eye exam as a precautionary measure. At Skowron Eye Care, our mission is your vision. P.S. While most cases of coloboma have no known cause and are not related to other abnormalities, a small percentage of those with coloboma have other inherited developmental problems.

Support protection of Forest Preserve To the Editor: As a resident of DuPage County for 24 years, I have enjoyed the forest preserves and wish to have them remain for future generations. Our environment is essential to the quality of life in this area making the recent news on the DuPage County Forest Preserve an important issue to me. The DuPage County Forest Preserve Board protects the wonderful parks in DuPage County, and I strongly oppose any legislation that would eliminate the Forest Preserve Board. Our parks are worthy of protection. I am so glad that my representative, Deb Conroy, is sponsoring a HB 2377. In these hard economic times, this bill will create a ballot referendum eliminating the high salaries while keeping the Forest Preserve Board as an independent entity. Hopefully this will encourage a board motivated to preserving the environment and our parks in DuPage County rather than those serving for monetary gain. The Forest Preserve Board must remain independent and separate from the DuPage County Board to maintain these parks for our children as Conroy’s bill stipulates. Patty Engelmann Villa Park

VILLA PARK — At work, Joanne Marcotte is the self-described alpha. It’s a crucial role if she’s going to keep the dozens of dogs she cares for in line. Marcotte, who grew up in Elmhurst and now lives in Lombard, opened her business, Villa Park’s Bow Wow Playground, more than four years ago after spending three decades in retail. She’d had enough of working in a corporate environment and was looking for the opportunity to run her own business when a friend-of-a-friend brought up the topic of doggy daycare. “I’d never heard of it before,” she said. “It was a whole new idea.” She ran with it, and now provides boarding and daycare services to dogs. Training and grooming services also are available at the location, 400 W. St. Charles Road, but are done by another business. The volume of dogs at Bow Wow Playground vary depending on the day, Marcotte said. There’s the set list of dogs she knows will be coming on a specific day, and then there are usually between five to 10 additional a week as space allows. Marcotte is helped by a team of employees, scheduling workers and dogs so that there are never more than seven dogs to one person. “My first priority is for the dogs and my employees to be safe, and then for them to have fun and a good time,” she said. Last week was Spring Break for many of the local schools, and the Bow Wow Playground was packed with wagging tails and wet noses enjoying their own vacations while the humans were away.

Since she’s started the business, Marcotte said she’s seen a significant rise in the popularity of doggy daycare. Dog owners who are unwilling to leave their pets home alone for an extended period of time will bring them to a place like the Bow Wow Playground to socialize with other dogs and be cared for during the day. “People love their dogs,” she said. “For many, they’re their children. A lot of it is socializing.” The most important thing a dog owner can do is socialize the pup when he or she is young, Marcotte said. This makes for a happier dog that interacts easily with other dogs and a happier owner who doesn’t have to worry about a dog responding negatively to new people or animals. Her biggest rule with accepting dogs is that they’re up-todate on shots. Other than that, she’s flexible. Puppies, elders, big dogs, small dogs and a variety of breeds are represented at Bow Wow Playground. Marcotte also will take on dogs with special needs. “It doesn’t really deter us,” she said. One of the things she enjoys most in her job is seeing how the dogs interact with each other. The dogs who come to Bow Wow Playground know each other, and they’ll look for each other. Two of the dogs are from the same litter but live with different owners. When they’re together at Bow Wow Playground, they reconnect immediately, she said. The dogs also have their favorite human workers. “It’s the unconditional love,” Marcotte said of a dog’s companionship. “You can’t beat it. They’re always happy to see you, even if you walk out of the room and come back five seconds later.”

Restaurant reviews

Hawthorne’s Backyard proves cozy dining retreat With a little imagination, you might think you’ve wandered off a Montana turnpike and landed in a rustic, rural roadhouse at Hawthorne’s Backyard in West Chicago. The post-and-beam construction in the dining room set on four acres of wooded grounds help fuel the illusion. And the restaurant and bar definitely cater to logger-size appetites with generous portions of homemade fare. Among the standouts is Momma’s Pot Roast sandwich, which we tried in its appetizer incarnation, happily learning we were in for the Tuesday half-price deal on starters. Served as four sliders on soft buns, they were big on well-seasoned, slow-cooked flavor. “Frazzled Onions” topped the sliders and my dining companion’s pulled-pork sandwich. Fine ribbons of crispy, battered onions lend a tangy touch as garnish and are a lighter, tasty alternative to onion rings. We shared a cup of the grill’s signature tomato-artichoke soup, prepared with big

chunks of artichoke in a mildly piquant, light broth. The pulled-pork sandwich serves as a taste test for the fullfledged pig roasts Hawthorne’s holds, including catering private events. “Very tasty,” was the twoword review as my companion gave full attention to the sandwich in hand, served with creamy cole slaw that has a gentle kick. It’s one of a choice of sides. The adjoining bar offers seven beers on tap, including Guinness, and an ample list of standard domestic and imported beers. Hawthorne’s also delivers its own twist on cocktails, including a Jack Honey Breakfast Shot whose ingredients include bacon. There’s no wine list. Our server recommended the wings and the barbecue ribs, and I couldn’t resist the latter. Incredibly flavorful, the baby back ribs didn’t require a slathering of the extra house barbecue sauce provided, but spoke volumes about taste all by themselves.

the server, noting it kicks off after 9 p.m. For seafood fans, he recommends the barbecue grilled salmon entree and a blackened grouper sandwich.

Career teacher publishes ‘Augustus to the Rescue!’ By ALLISON HORNE msleditorial@shawmedia.com Inspiration for writing can come from many places — for some, it’s a recurring thought, while for others, a plot just hits them one day. For Annette Vera Werle, inspiration started with her experiences as a teacher and grew from there. Annette Her resulting Vera Werle book - “Augustus to the Rescue!” - is a story about a young boy dealing with the pressures of sports, while using the help of a newfound friend to become successful. The book, which Werle self-published, was released online last year.

Find the book What: “Augustus to the Rescue!” by Annette Vera Werle Info: amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com Werle, who goes by the pen name Dale Delarew, spent more than 30 years teaching middle school - 18 of them in the Elmhurst school system. Although Werle now resides in Riverside, she also spent time living in Lombard and teaching in Hinsdale. After working in the school system for so long, Werle started seeing trends with students and athletics. She noticed some kids seemed to be under intense pressure to succeed in athletics at a young age. In her own family, she watched her

nephew struggle to participate in after-school sports and maintain good grades. Werle recalls her own childhood - a time when she focused on academic pursuits, rather than athletics. Back then, girls didn’t even have teams that practiced after school. Extracurricular athletics are a jumping-off point for Werle’s book.

Tell us a little about the plot. It’s about a student, Tyler, who’s in a fictitious school in the middle grades. He’s 10 years old, and in the town in which he lives, basketball is king. The parents want the kids to be good at basketball, so much so that the kids are starting basketball in fifthgrade gym classes. Tyler is good at sports but isn’t good at basketball. The kids are

telling him that he’s not doing what they know he’s capable of. That’s when a being from outer space enters his bedroom by means of a computer monitor. The being, named Gussie, is there to help him. … So Tyler accepts Gussie as a coach.

What made you want to write the book? My kids would came back from gym and be yelling at each other and calling each other names, and I would say, ‘It’s only a game. What difference does it make?’ I decided to take them back to the gym, (saying), ‘We’re not keeping score.’ When we didn’t keep scores, they had a wonderful time. The story was just one thing that led to another in my mind. I know a coach of a basket-

ball team in Cicero through one of my friends, and he says the kids are under tremendous pressure to perform well … so that they can get scholarships to pay for … college. That’s (partly) what my book is about.

What was the writing process like? Well, I started this book in 1993, and my sister had a stroke shortly after, so I wasn’t really in the mental frame of mind to be able to create this book. I had it evaluated and was told that I excluded the parents too much. I finally found time to sit down and look at the book again. It took me a year to rewrite it. I then had it evaluated again and (after another rewrite), have had a good response, so now I think I’ve got it.

Angela Scalzitti’s emergence as a premier slap hitter at York earned her a scholarship to DePaul.

Slap happy By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com ELMHURST — Speed is Angela Scalzitti’s game so it made sense for her to become a slap hitter and maximize the value of her quickness. The York junior center fielder made the switch to slap hitting just last year, and it’s worked so well for her that she’s committed to play for DePaul. Scalzitti is only wondering what took so long. “I love slapping,” Scalzitti

said. “I wish I would have started sooner. “I put the ball on the ground and I’m just there to beat it out. I love it.” She is York’s leadoff hitter and a spark plug for the Dukes’ offense, but has also made plays defensively. On Saturday, she threw out a runner at home to preserve a tie score in the seventh inning against Riverside Brookfield. Scalzitti was also 5-for-5 at the plate in the doubleheader sweep of the Bulldogs. “Obviously Angela is one of our leaders on the field,” said

York’s speedy Scalzitti turns love of slap hitting into DePaul scholarship offer

York coach Drew McGuire. “She’s just so fast. When she gets on base we can do so much offensively with her and our offense works when she hits.” Scalzitti uses her speed to be an effective slap hitter. Once on base, she is dangerous. “I’m just trying to get on base for my team,” Scalzitti said. “I struggled last year with slapping. Last year was my first season slapping and I worked real hard this summer and in the fall.” That work has paid off to the tune of a .600 batting average

through nine games. One of her coaches said to try it due to her speed and she’s taken right to it. Her success garnered attention from college programs and Scalzitti committed to DePaul in October. “I’m lucky enough that I had an opportunity to do that, but softball is weird like that,” Scalzitti said of the early commitment. “I was their last recruit. “I’m really excited. They are usually top 25 in the nation. The coach is really nice. I’m looking forward to it.”

York’s Seth Dvorak rips a pitch back up the middle April 3 at Wheaton North.

HILLSIDE — After getting swept in their opening conference series, the York baseball team needed to get back on the winning track, and Proviso West may have been the perfect answer to that problem.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

While most people view rice as a simple side dish, if you take a more inventive approach, you’ll find it is a great way to enhance almost any recipe. Try adding it to soups, side dishes, main dishes, appetizers and even desserts. It’s even a great way to start the day off right. Wrap it up: Chop your favorite veggies and meat, and cook in a pan. Add cooked rice and then wrap all ingredients in a tortilla for a quick and filling dinner. Have leftovers? Chilled wraps are great for brown-bag lunches. Chop it up: Try mixing cooked rice, fresh tomatoes, onions and your choice of peppers in a blender or food processor. Enjoy the fresh flavors with crackers or chips, or add eggs to make a breakfast omelet in the morning. Jazz it up: Try adding some chili seasoning for heat, or sweeten it with some chopped dried fruit and a touch of honey. Try cooking rice in broth, fruit juice or stock for additional flavor.

Orange Chicken and Rice Makes 4 servings • 1 jar (12 ounces) orange marmalade • 1/2 cup orange juice • 1/2 cup water • 2 cups cooked chicken, grilled or roasted • 1 large orange, washed and thinly sliced • 1 cup frozen sugar snap peas, thawed • 2 cups cooked, white rice or brown rice • Slivered almonds, optional In a small sauce pan add marmalade, orange juice and water. Simmer until blended and reduced by about half. It should be like syrup. Add chicken, orange slices and peas until all are hot. Serve over rice. If desired, sprinkle with slivered almonds.

You can’t get much more comforting when it comes to food than tater tots. Whether homemade, restaurant-ordered or packaged, the browned oildrenched nuggets are decadent and diet-busting. Fast-food chain Sonic is one in a line of preparers who have decided seasoned sweet potatoes should be added to the mix. They have created a stir and an uptick in orders with the ones they’ve been promoting as accompaniments to spicy popcorn chicken. Specialty supermarket chain Trader Joe’s notes sales spiked fast when its brand of frozen sweet tots came on board. The little darlings are fairly simple to prepare at home, too. When that’s the case you can add your own flavors, such as bacon, garlic, oregano and curry powder, featured in the recipes below. Best of all is the mild sweet kick from the flavor of the potato and the mild nutritional benefits from the sweet potatoes’ additional vitamins. Or you have the option of baking them — they still remain more flavorful than their bland cousins.

Carefully heat the oil to 300 F in a straight-sided skillet. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, shred the potatoes using either a box grater or shredding attachment on a food processor.

Create an Eco-friendly Home to Attract “Green” Buyers Tim & Amy Schiller, The Schiller Team Platinum Award

HINSDALE, IL (April 8, 2013) – With Earth Day two short weeks away, people will have a heightened awareness of where they can make a difference and do their part to help the environment. With regards to one’s home, there are many innovative ways to go green whether it’s using special building materials, recycling or saving energy. And, when it comes time to sell, these earth-friendly features help a home stand out amongst the competition. Anyone can transform their home into a green home by making a few updates which can add both enticing new features and value to a home. Update the Exterior with a Rain Barrel – To reduce water usage for watering lawns, plants and gardens, rain barrels are an affordable green solution that can be purchased for under $100.

Go with Low-Flow Bathrooms - Low-flow toilets and showerheads can reduce water consumption by as much as 50 percent, and modern versions see almost no reductions in water pressure. Install Tankless Water Heaters – Because they don’t store water and reheat it consistently, tankless heaters can save up to 50 percent on a hot water bill. Even better, with a tankless water heater homeowners will never be without hot water, since the coils of a tankless heater warm the water as it passes through the system. Update the Kitchen and Utilities with ENERGY STAR Appliances – The upfront cost for ENERGY STAR appliances will quickly be mitigated by energy savings. These appliances use anywhere from 10 to 50 percent less energy.

Curb appeal: 2013’s hottest home improvement trend (BPT) - The busy home remodeling season is a great time for homeowners to focus on increasing curb appeal. The percentage of homeowners who feel now is a good time to spend money on home improvement has doubled since 2009, according to a recent survey among Better Homes and Gardens readers. Considering two of the top four features consumers have on their wish lists for their next home are low maintenance exteriors and a private backyard, high-performance products that come in a variety of colors, textures and designs are expected to be in high demand this year. “Based on these survey results, we’ve found that many of our readers want to refresh what’s already there,” says Jill Waage, editorial director for home content, Better Homes and Gardens. “Perhaps they’re looking to dig out that hidden sophistication of a mid-century home, or they might have a classic and want to bring out

the character a bit more. Beyond the facade, our readers also really love outdoor living spaces; they see their yard as an extension of the indoors.” From small touch ups to large renovations, projects such as replacing boring and beige with colorful vinyl siding and trim, updating entryways with bright front doors and shutters, and sprucing up outdoor living areas can make a big difference in the look of your home and neighborhood. “Homeowners want it all in 2013; low maintenance products that perform and style that breaks the cookie-cutter mold,” says Jerry Blais, vice president of marketing for Ply Gem Siding Group, a division of exterior building products manufacturer Ply Gem. “Colorful vinyl siding options in different styles, combined with complementary trim, stone veneer and designer accents that set your home apart are in demand for home improvements.”

Consider these upgrades to get magazine-ready looks for your home exterior.

Make a grand entrance For experienced DIYers considering a weekend project, painting the front door or replacing shutters is a simple solution with dramatic results. These small changes create a focal point for the house and provide a warm, inviting appearance with a modern feel. Brands such as Mastic Home Exteriors by Ply Gem offer shutters in dozens of pre-selected colors, or can be painted for a custom look. Other subtle improvements like adding modern lighting fixtures, detailed railings, a new mailbox, stone columns or house numbers can also go a long way in enhancing a home’s custom look.

A new entry, windows, siding and stone veneer were added to transform the home’s bland exterior into a magazine-ready home. new siding and trim can infuse life into a bland exterior. Vinyl siding, stone veneer and designer accents have evolved over the years, with vastly expanded color palettes, easy maintenance and a natural look. By incorporating cellular PVC trim as an accent to vinyl siding and stone - around windows, on dormers, eaves and gables - even the most discerning homeowners can enjoy a sophisticated look that’s also low maintenance.

The great outdoors The perfect addition to any exterior design renovation is an outdoor living area to entertain friends, enjoy a summer barbecue or just relax with the newspaper. To extend your interior space to the outdoors, consider projects such as installing an outdoor fireplace or kitchen with durable stone veneer, or a low maintenance vinyl privacy or picket fence.

Get The Most From Open Houses BY MARK NASH GATEHOUSE NEWS SERVICE There are only so many home photos and descriptions that you can view online. Eventually, you’ll want to go out to see some properties in person. Open houses are a fun way to check out a variety of homes while giving you an up-close look at neighborhoods.

Keep in mind When you go to an open house, pick up the property-information sheet and take notes on what you like and dislike. After seeing several homes, those notes will help you remember specific property details. And don’t be afraid to take pictures, but ask the hosting real estate agent first if it’s OK.

It’s standard procedure at an open house to sign in with some basic contact information. However, if you wish not to be contacted by the agent, be sure to indicate that next to your name. Also, if you already have an agent who sends you to an open house unaccompanied by him, you should tell this to the open house host and add your agent’s name next to yours on the sign-in sheet. Some agents like to hover over you as you tour a house or speak to you about all its features and benefits. However, if you prefer to be left alone, tell the agent that you would like to take your time and look around at your leisure. It’s perfectly fine to open closets and cabinets, but respect the owner’s personal property.

Feel free to inquire about local schools or the community, but don’t ask about the profile of the neighborhood’s residents or if the area is safe. These types of questions are discriminatory, and if an agent responds to them in earnest, he or she could be violating The Fair Housing Act. If you need crime statistics, look them up online or visit the local police station.

For condo hunters If you’re looking at condominiums, ask the host agent if there are any proposed special assessments for capital improvements, such as a new roof. Don’t forget to inquire about the association’s “reserve fund,” rainyday money for unexpected repairs and maintenance. Another good question is

whether the building or association allows condo owners to rent units. If so, what is the percentage allowed to be leased? If you’re a pet lover, verify that the building you’re interested in allows cats and dogs, and if there is a limit on the number of pets and their weight.

any known material defects, such as cracked foundation walls or leaky roofs. Is the roof old? Look for curled shingles. If the roof looks good, ask the agent how old it is. Don’t overlook the age of the windows -- if you end up replacing them, it will cost you plenty.

Dig deep

Keep in mind that the majority of home sellers and their agents try to put the best face on their property for an open house. While fresh flowers, home-baked cookies, and today’s cutting-edge paint and decor can say “Wow!” be sure to look past the staging and focus on the home’s mechanical and structural systems.

When viewing single-family homes, ask about recent improvements, such as insulation, new plumbing or other upgrades that you can’t see. If the home has a basement, look for water seepage or flooding, which often evident at the bottom of basement walls. Ask if there is a Residential Real Property Disclosure that you can see. Most states require home sellers to disclose in writing

An inspector will:

BY MIKE NASH GATEHOUSE NEWS SERVICE Once you’ve found your new home, hire a licensed home inspector to make sure it’s in tip-top shape. Most home inspections take place after you’ve negotiated a purchase contract (an offer), but in some situations, you should consider having the home inspected before you draft a real estate contract. If the home has been vacant, in foreclosure or has some visible material defects, such as cracked foundation walls, get the property inspected before drafting the contract.

◆ Check the home’s exterior, including roof, chimney, porch, deck and soil gradation away from the property. ◆ Look for structural cracks in foundation walls and floor problems. ◆ Check water pressure, plumbing for leaks and proper venting of waste lines.

What you discover in a precontract inspection on a distressed property may change your mind on what you’re willing to pay for the home. All real estate contracts contain a contingency clause allowing the buyer to do a property inspection within five to 10 business days after written acceptance. Do not waive this contingency; it gives you the opportunity to get a home’s true condition from the sharp eye of an experienced professional who has inspected hundreds of homes.

◆ Run all major appliances in the kitchen and laundry rooms. ◆ Turn on the furnace and air conditioning and note of their age. ◆ Check all cabinets, doors, windows and screens. ◆ Make sure the fireplace or wood-burning stove is clean and in good working order, and meet local building codes. The inspector will give you a final report of all structural elements, mechanical systems and rooms, and will list all the defects he or she discovers, which you should show the home seller when requesting repairs.

What’s inspected? A home inspection usually takes at least two hours. The inspector will closely look at all the systems and structural elements of a home.

What lies beneath

Many buyers believe that they can use deficiencies discovered in a home inspection to renegotiate the purchase price. But unless a major structural defect is discovered, you can ask the seller to repair problems before closing. Communities have varying ordinances and building codes that mandate correcting violations discovered during an inspection.

Keep in mind that the inspector can’t check out things they can’t see, like the inside of walls or underneath floors. If he thinks there’s a problem inside a wall, such as mold, asbestos or radon, he will add it to the report and suggest that you hire a specialized inspector who is familiar with these problems. Home inspectors are not allowed to damage a home they are inspecting.
