A new name and a new look for your news Today you are reading your new Westmont Progress. Your newspaper has a new name and a new look. While the name has changed, our commitment to being your number one source of local news and information has not. In fact, over the past 12 months, our local coverage has measurably improved. I want to take a moment to share with you our rationale for making the changes you see today. One year ago this week, Shaw Media acquired Westmont Progress along with 21 other weekly community newspapers in the Chicago suburbs. We saw an opportunity to bring back the local news and information that mattered to you. We saw an opportunity to deliver that information to you any way you wanted to read it: in print, on-

FROM THE PUBLISHER J. Tom Shaw line at mysuburbanlife.com, on your smartphone, on an iPad, or even via email. We saw an opportunity to partner with our local communities in order to celebrate the fantastic culture, heritage, and events offered here in our own neighborhoods. As we set about our mission, we found that many of the local newspapers we now publish had lost some of the identity they once held as independent, family-owned papers. To get people to read the paper for the first time, or to give us another try, we realized we needed a strong, consistent message in order to effectively communicate

the improvements we’ve been making. As a result, today your Westmont Progress is now the Westmont Suburban Life. Our brand represents the best local news and information source you can find. For local news about your town online, please check out www.mysuburbanlife.com. Our popular new lifestyle magazine, Suburban Life Magazine, is available for home delivery, as well as retail locations throughout our newspaper coverage area. With a consistent name and brand identity, we will continue to provide you with the local news that matters to you. We will continue to develop effective marketing solutions with our business partners. And we will continue to work with any local nonprofit or community group to help

celebrate and improve our communities. My sincere hope is that you will find your Westmont Suburban Life a better newspaper than it was a year ago. Better in terms of news and information that is relevant to you. Better in terms of quality advertisements about local businesses in your community. Better in terms of local events and activities you may attend this weekend. Please let me know your thoughts, tips, ideas, and feedback both positive and negative. All of us at Shaw Media sincerely appreciate your readership, and your opinion matters. It’s been an exciting year, and it has been my honor to serve you. Sincerely,

J Thomas Shaw jtshaw@shawmedia.com 630-427-6210

Our aim: Bringing you the best coverage of Westmont What does the name Westmont Progress mean to you? We’ve been asking that question a lot since Shaw Media purchased this newspaper and 21 others in the western suburbs in October 2012. We asked readers, government officials, business owners, chamber of commerce directors and anyone else who came to mind. Before we could figure out where we wanted to take this paper, we had to learn where it had been. What we heard were all kinds of answers. We learned that the perception of this newspaper didn’t line up entirely with what we wanted it to be. That’s partly because the paper needed to improve, and we think it has. We’ve introduced a series of changes gradually in the past

VIEWS Dave Lemery year, and we’ll continue to do so into the next year and beyond. We’re constantly brainstorming ways to make your newspaper better, more local, and more relevant to your life. In cased you missed any, here are some of the improvements we’ve made: In the past year we’ve added the Mystery Diner restaurant feature, The Argyle Sweater comic, and Chicago football coverage from HubArkush.com. We introduced Planit Life in print and online to help you decide how to plan your weekend, and we added a

weather forecast to let you know if your plans might be subject to the whims of the meteorologists. The Sound Off column gives you a chance to vent or just muse on whatever’s on your mind, and we’ve increased our game coverage of local high school sports so you can keep up with what your kids, grandkids, or neighbors’ kids or grandkids are doing on the athletic fields. If there’s a new business or a great community event going on in town, our page 2 “Community snapshot” photo is a perfect place to draw some attention to it (the photo position is missing this week so we could bring you these columns). We try to get to as many of these as we can, but we’re also happy to run your

submitted photo if you get a chance to send one in. We’ve got a lot more planned, and we’ll gladly take your suggestions, too; feel free to call or email me – my contact information is at the bottom of this column. The name “Westmont Progress” has stood for many different things over the years, but just so there’s no confusion, the name “Westmont Suburban Life” stands for something specific: high quality, relevant, local news coverage of Westmont. That’s what you expect, and that’s what we work every day to deliver.

WESTMONT – After three years dancing at Expression Dance Studio in Westmont, Grace Kennedy has received a little recognition. The 6-year-old is the studio’s Student of the Month for October. Grace, who currently is enrolled in Thursday evening dance classes, said she’s kept up with dancing for a simple reason: it’s fun. “I like ballet and tap,” she said. “Tap is my favorite because you do new moves everyday.” Expression Dance Studio, 21 W. Quincy St., employs 12 dance teachers and has about 400 students. Grace is enrolled in tap but has taken ballet and hip-hop classes, as well. She said her favorite part of dance is the final number in her recital – the bow dance – even though she knows she won’t be dancing forever.

always does.” Amber Alonzo, owner of Expression Dance Studio, said dance classes benefit children in many ways. “It helps with their ability to educate themselves, with being able to learn from others, take initiative from others, direction and understanding,” Alonzo said. “[It helps with] their balance, their flexibility and putting everything all together is really beneficial for them, as well as being creative.” Alonzo, who has been Grace’s teacher since day one, said awarding her student of the month is important to the studio and its students. “[Grace] is a great student and she’s always learning, growing, developing and working super hard for me,” Alonzo said. “Grace was very, very shy but she definitely has come out of her shell and seeing her development in three years has been unbelievable.”

Paper cranes take flight Art teacher’s class finds many uses for project By KRISTIN PEDICINI kpedicini@shawmedia.com WESTMONT – In her second year at Holy Trinity School, Debbie Zeller’s goal has been to make history come alive for her art students. It’s a goal she plans to accomplish by sending more than 1,000 paper cranes her students constructed to the Hiroshima Peace Park in Hiroshima, Japan. “With my passion for

teaching and thinking outside the box, I wanted to take it a step further by having the cranes sent to another country,” Zeller said. The cranes are part of a project Zeller instituted with her fourth-, fifth- and sixthgrade classes. The students had read the book “Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes” and she wanted to incorporate art and reading. The book shares the story of a girl battling Leukemia

who tries to instill peace on Earth, according to Zeller. She said the girl – Sadako – believed if she could fold more than 1,000 paper cranes, she would be cured. Sending the projects across the world to Hiroshima will help increase the students’ self-esteem and give them a sense of accomplishment knowing that their work is being promoted and supported, according to Zeller, who is shipping out

A box of completed paper cranes in Debbie Zeller’s art room Tuesday during class at Holy Trinity Catholic School, 111 S. Cass Ave. in Westmont. Zeller, a breast cancer survivor, will be sending the paper art to the Hiroshima Peace Park in Japan. the paper cranes at the end of next week. She said the students have constructed about 2,000 cranes total. “It became a lifelong lesson for the kids, and that’s what learning is, a lifelong experience,” Zeller said. Ellie Kaiser, one of Zeller’s sixth-grade students, said she’s excited for the cranes to journey across the world. “It’s cool because people on the other side of the world can know what the people on this side of the world are doing,” Ellie said. And while Zeller was creating the plans, a group of her students found a way to use the project in her honor. At Holy Trinity’s second annual Oktoberfest on Sept. 21, a group of seven fourthgrade students sold about 60 cranes to raise money for the Susan G. Komen foundation. “When they came up to me and they showed me the

cranes and the money they raised, I was moved beyond words,” said Zeller, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in January 2012, but now is in remission. “I couldn’t believe the students took it on themselves, it was very touching.” The cranes sold for 25 cents each, according to Ava Gustafson, one of the fourthgrade students who helped out. She said selling the cranes was really special for her class. “People were giving us twenties, fives and dollars. It was just amazing and I want to keep doing it for the rest of my life,” Ava said. The students plan on raising money again at Holy Trinity’s St. Patrick’s Day fest, according to fourth-grader Hannah Simpson. “[Selling the cranes] just made us really happy because we love our teacher and she loves us back,” Hannah said.

Meat Specials THE PERILS OF WISDOM TEETH Q: I hear conflicting things about wisdom teeth. Are they good or bad? A: Wisdom teeth are not necessarily bad, but they can be troublesome if they don’t come into your mouth–erupt, that is–in the right way. Wisdom teeth is the name for your third molars, which are in the far back of your mouth. When they come in properly they can be an asset, particularly adding to your chewing power. But when they erupt and are squeezed by other teeth because of a jaw too small to accommodate them, they can be trouble. These are called impacted wisdom teeth. If the wisdom teeth erupt only partially, bacteria can get into the opening and cause infection. The infection associated with impacted wisdom teeth can be quite painful. It will generally cause local swelling and stiffness in the jaw. As the teeth try to force their way out, they can also damage the adjoining teeth. Depending on the severity of the situation, your dentist may refer you to an oral surgeon for extraction of the troublesome teeth. One of the challenges with extracting a wisdom tooth is that the tooth can have as many as five roots. Sometimes the oral surgeon has to actually break the tooth and remove it in segments. Talk with your dentist about what your strategy should be if you are anticipating the arrival of wisdom teeth.

t is well known in the hearing healthcare community that if hearing loss goes untreated for too long, a phenomenon called auditory deprivation occurs. Auditory deprivation is a decrease in an ear’s ability to understand speech clearly.

A crucial part of every hearing examination involves measurement of word discrimination. Word discrimination is the ability to repeat back words presented to the patient at a comfortable listening level. If the patient confuses many similar sounding words such as confusing “fish” for “dish”, one possible

but that the ability to understand words decreased significantly in only the ear without the hearing aid. This study suggests that both ears be fit with hearing aids as soon as possible after a hearing loss is diagnosed to prevent auditory deprivation. Since that time, numerous investigations and studies worldwide have supported the initial findings. There are several theories on why auditory deprivation occurs. One thought is that the brain gradually loses some its ability to process sound information because of a lack of sound stimulation. Another theory is that the brain adapts

only one ear hears and understands better, it can become the dominant ear. The ear without the hearing aid is deprived of stimulation. The ear with the hearing aid hears better, while the unaided ear no longer tries to hear. There are still times when audiologists fit only one ear with a hearing aid, such as when a medical problem prohibits it,or when the ear is completely devoid of hearing. However,if a hearing loss exists in both ears, fitting

Auditory Deprivation cause may be auditory deprivation. The reversibility of auditory deprivation is a source of dispute among researchers; but one thing is clear, hearing aids have helped in preserving word clarity. The first study to document auditory deprivation was in 1984 by Silman and Silverman of City University of New York. The study followed hearing impaired adults who had an equal amount of hearing loss in both ears, but only wore one hearing aid. The study concluded that the ability to hear tones decreased the same amount in each ear over time,

bothers with hearing aids is the route most often recommended by audiologists to achieve the best hearing quality. Recent hearing research supports the “use it or lose it” theory. Lack of sound stimulation may cause you not to hear clearly. Call your local audiologist (hearing specialist) to schedule a hearing test. Don’t put it off.

to the reduced sound levels. In the past, audiologists often fit people with only one hearing aid. Research over the years has shown that fitting only one hearing aid is a problem. An obvious difficulty is the inability to tell the direction of sound due to the uneven stimulation to each ear. Auditory deprivation is even a larger problem. If

Here’s what some of the top medical researchers had to say about chiropractic… “Manipulation [chiropractic adjustments], with or without exercise, improved symptoms more than medical care did ater both 3 and 12 months.” – British Medical Journal

Having back and leg pain can bring life to a standstill. You might not be able to play golf, work, or even sit in the car for a 30-minute drive. It’s almost impossible for anyone around you to understand how you feel. You can’t remember the last time you even had a restful night’s sleep. You’ve got too many dreams let undone to let back pain slow you down. Too many special moments waiting to be experienced. My name is Dr. Mike DeCubellis, owner of Main Street Chiropractic. Over the past 5 years since we’ve opened the doors, I’ve seen hundreds of people with back pain leave the oice pain free. Because I’ve seen it with my own eyes, I strongly “Chiropractor’s manipulation of the spine was more believe… Back pain is NOT “just a part of life” and helpful than any of the following: traction, massage, something you have to live with.

The FBI has transferred coordination of a task force for the investigation into the “Chicago Tylenol Murders” to local police, the Arlington Heights Police Department announced Friday in a news release. In 1982, seven people died after taking cyanide-laced Tylenol, which was consumed over three days in Chicago and its suburbs. No one was ever charged for the killings. Victims of the poisoned Tylenol included Stanley Janus, 25, and Theresa Janus, 19, both of Lisle; Mary McFarland, 31, of Elmhurst; and Mary Reiner, 27, of Winfield, among others. All seven victims were found to have ingested the cyanide-laced Extra Strength Tylenol capsules on or shortly after Sept. 29, 1982. The deaths led Johnson & Johnson to recall some 31

million bottles of Tylenol and led to the introduction of tamper-resistant packaging. The FBI-led task force was established in 2007, along with the Illinois State Police and police departments in Arlington Heights, Elk Grove Village, Lombard, Schaumburg, Chicago and Winfield. The FBI will continue to provide resources as needed to assist the investigation, according to the release.

n LAST WEEK’S WEB POLL QUESTION: What’s your favorite thing about fall?

50 PERCENT: The cooler weather 30 PERCENT: The leaves changing colors 11 PERCENT: Fall festivals and holidays 9 PERCENT: Fall produce and seasonal foods

Class matters in D-99 high schools It’s probably no surprise to you that at District 99, we work hard to challenge and prepare our students academically. Results prove that we’re on the right track: North High and South High are top-ranked high schools nationally, and our graduates leave well prepared for their future endeavors. We are proud, but also know that it takes more than just smarts for students to succeed in life. Strength of character is as equally important, which is why we created a program that COMMUNITY is focused on teaching students VOICE how to be respectful, responScott sible and engaged. At South High this program is called Wuggazer “Mustang Way” and at North High it is “Positively North.” To ensure we are consistent and clear, we have meticulously defined what being “respectful, responsible and engaged” looks like in action – whether in the classroom, cafeteria or hallway. For example: • Being respectful means to show up to class on time; • Giving your full attention to not only the teacher but also other students is the responsible thing to do during class discussions; and • Engaged students ask their teacher questions and seek extra resources if they are confused. Each month, teachers provide a lesson focused on a specific behavior and lead discussions to explore the topic in more depth. We have just started our third year of the program, and our standards now are well known and practiced by everyone at our schools, students and staff alike. Staff members also acknowledge students who exhibit positive actions. Everyone likes to be rewarded, and thanks to the many community businesses that donate goods and services to us, we can keep students motivated with incentives. We have concrete evidence that our efforts are working, and creating a more positive school environment. For example, when we compare disciplinary information before and after implementing the program, we see improvement. Beyond the data, though, are the stories we hear almost daily of students who are living the standards. We are encouraged, day by day and lesson by lesson, that our students are developing good habits. Our students clearly understand what it means to show the “Mustang Way” and to be “Positively North” – messages we hope will resonate long after graduation.

Pompei, an Italian Pizzeria, is planning to open this fall in Westmont at 200 W. Ogden Ave.

It’s good to see a new business making plans along Ogden Avenue. Last week, we told you Pompei, a pizzeria, plans to open in the former Emmy’s location at 200 W. Ogden Ave. That stretch of Ogden Avenue has at least three shuttered businesses, so it’s calming to know one of the buildings won’t be vacant for long. The Downers Grove Park District recently notched a beaver dam within Lyman Woods to alleviate flooding. The dam was causing a stream to overflow into soccer fields on Midwestern University’s campus. There really was no other option for the park district, it’s just a shame the habitat there is now a little less natural.

Protect children Recently, an adult male was charged [with] watching porn in the youth department of Westmont library. He would not be able to do that if the library cares more about our children and installs software that blocks adult material. Who knows how many children were exposed to this online filth? All public libraries should protect children from this. They are funded by our taxes, and we want our children to be safe at the library. Public schools get funds from taxpayers, too, and they have filters on computers that students use. Why not public libraries? If we want to raise moral and responsible citizens, do your part, libraries. It takes the whole village to raise a child!

Bad language on the bus School bus drivers should be allowed to report bad language use. I’m referring to junior high students. Parents, are you aware of your child’s filthy mouth? Teachers should have a class on manners on the school bus. This has been going on for years, and it’s getting worse. I heard my grandson and friends and I was shocked.

Trumping our laws Our president has stated that he is eager to sign the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. Articles 8, 12 and 15 of that treaty create international pressure for every nation to register all gun owners who purchase guns imported from other countries. The text of the treaty states that it is of unlimited duration, so even if the current U.S. Senate does not ratify the treaty after the president signs it, it still exists and waits patiently for some future Senate years later to get the two-thirds majority for ratification. Article 6 of the U.S. Constitution states that all treaties made by the U.S. are supreme law, regardless of anything to the contrary in the U.S. Constitution itself, U.S. laws or state laws. Yes, treaties, signed and ratified, trump anything in the Bill of Rights, including the Second Amendment. Thank you.

Autoimmune condition? Living with an autoimmune disorder can afect every part of your life. It keeps you from enjoying the good things in life… time with your kids, grandkids, activities like goling, biking, yard work and gardening. Did you know that leaky gut syndrome is a precursor to an autoimmune disease? Did you know that your gut makes up 80% of your immune system? An autoimmune disorder is when your immune system attacks your own body. here is NO CURE for autoimmune disorders, but you can calm down the immune response NATURALLY. My name is Dr. Jefrey E Forzley, with Lemont Natural Healthcare. I am a chiropractic physician and a holistic practitioner. I am passionate about helping people with chronic health conditions. I have been in practice for 28 years. As a holistic practitioner I evaluate the whole body and the many systems of the body, integrate their relationships, manage the underlying cause and use natural methods to manage autoimmune disorders.

Are you sufering with any of these autoimmune disorders? • Hashimotos hroiditis • Rheumatoid Arthritis • Graves Disease • Multiple Sclerosis • Scleroderma • Sjogren’s Syndrome • Type 1 Diabetes • Myasthenia Gravis • Ankylosing Spondylitis • Perniscious Anemia

• Lupus • ALS • Psoriasis • Vasculitis • Celiac Disease • Crohn’s Disease • Addison’s Disease • Urticaria (Hives) • Eczema • Raynauds

Medications are not always the long term answer. Medications can give you temporary relief but they DO NOT ADDRESS THE UNDERLYING CAUSE of your immune imbalance. All medications have side efects. hese side efects can be more detrimental than the original symptoms sometimes.

Did you know that medications to treat autoimmune conditions can WEAKEN your immune system and lead to infections and immune degenerative conditions including cancer? here is a time to use medications but not before a NATURAL way to manage the underlying imbalance. So how do I help people with autoimmune disorders? I use a combination of speciic NEUROLOGICAL protocols and NUTRITION recommendations… Neuro-Metabolic herapy. Your Brain (nervous System) controls all other systems of the body. It controls your immune system. digestive system, endocrine (hormone) system… so if you have an immune system imbalance or autoimmune condition, evaluating and managing the nervous system is required for optimal improvement.

Your immune system. here are 2 parts to the front line defense of your immune system… TH1 (white blood cells) and TH2 (antibody response). hese 2 parts should work in balance together. But when you are sufering from an autoimmune disorder, one part is out of balance (dominant). his leads to an imbalance in TH3 which in turn leads to an autoimmune response.

Testimonials I was diagnosed with Graves Disease (autoimmune thyroid) three years ago. My endocrinologist recommended surgery to remove my thyroid and put me on medication for the rest of my life. I searched for an alternative treatment to save my thyroid and found Dr. Forzley. hrough comprehensive lab testing he found out what was causing my immune system to attack my thyroid. I have been receiving treatments and following his recommendations exactly and my lab numbers are now normal, my endocrinologist is happy, my medication has been reduced in half and I feel better. I highly recommend Dr. Forzley and his natural approach. Samantha R. I sufered from unbearable itching caused by Hives (chronic autoimmune Urticaria) for over 33 years. Steroid medications helped the symptoms temporarily but the side efects were bad. Ater an in-depth blood and metabolic analysis, Dr. Forzley found the cause of my problem. Ater 4-5 months of strictly following his recommendations, my hives are completely gone and I feel great. Cheryl P. If your immune system is not managed properly, your condition can worsen, result in a poor quality of life, cause a shortening of the length of your life and cause other autoimmune disorders. Holistic herapy can manage autoimmune conditions by: 1) inding and balancing the underlying cause. 2) lowering the self destructive efects of the immune system. 3) using natural therapies that work with your body.

I can work with your immune system NATURALLY and balance the TH1, TH2, TH3 and TH17. You can never be cured of an autoimmune disorder.

Residents say forest preserve ignored survey Opposition: Officials chose unwanted, more expensive material for dog park paths By ED MCMENAMIN emcmenamin@shawmedia.com DOWNERS GROVE – DuPage County Forest Preserve officials are moving ahead with a plan to replace turf and woodchip paths at two dog parks with crushed limestone despite a user survey that overwhelmingly rejected the plan. “We’ve said to the board we don’t want this and we don’t like it,” Downers Grove resident Kathi Taskila said. “And basically they told us [they] don’t care.” Taskila and several other regular dog parks users have expressed concerns with the crushed limestone, which they say would leave large amounts of white residue on their pets, dog toys, shoes, pants and other clothing. Work to install the crushed limestone is ongoing at Greene Valley and is planned to begin at Spring-

Matthew Piechalak – mpiechalak@shawmedia.com

A sign near the off-leash dog park at the Greene Valley Forest Preserve, 75th Street and Greene Road in Naperville, lets patrons know about construction work, including the replacement of woodchip paths with crushed limestone. brook Prairie next spring. The Forest Preserve Board approved the project in 2010, but a debate over whether it’s wanted at the Greene Valley

and Springbrook Prairie forest preserve dog parks began this winter when Woodridge resident Sharon Bailey gathered 140 petition signatures against the

limestone. After her petition, the district ordered a survey. “I think our tax money could be much better spent on things we actually want,” Bailey said. In the survey, 69 percent of users responded with a preference for turf, woodchips or a combination of the two. About 25 percent said they wanted a combination of either turf or woodchips with limestone. Only 10.7 percent of survey responders voted for limestone alone. The survey results were listed on the forest preserve’s website. The crushed limestone is a fine gravel that forms into a semi-hard surface after a rain. The surface is not concrete – a determined dog could still dig through it – but it doesn’t remain loose like pea gravel. Forest Preserve Director of Land Justin Frederick said he proposed the limestone for the paths. He said it’s used at the forest preserve’s other dog parks and elsewhere in the district because it requires less maintenance. “We got to a point where we finally had the funds to find us a sustainable, long-term solution,” he said. Fredrick said employees “constantly” had to add woodchips to the Greene Valley path, and told the board last month that staff recorded 19 trips in the last year to add woodchips.

The forest preserve also says limestone will retain less bacteria and other contaminants than woodchips, although the opponents of the limestone contend that the dust and residue dogs inhale from the limestone will be a bigger health issue. Bailey also questions why the district would want to spend more than $28,500 to buy limestone for Greene Valley and $45,000 for Springbrook Prairie when the woodchips are a free byproduct of the forest preserve’s own regular maintenance. The limestone material was bought from Elmhurst-Chicago Stone Co., according to records. Frederick contended that yearly maintenance for the woodchip paths costs about $1,100. Yearly maintenance for the limestone path would be about half that. Frederick added that both parks have several acres of grassy areas where dogs can run. If users don’t want to use the walking paths, he said, they don’t have to. After the survey results were discussed last month, board member Linda Painter motioned to delay the projects until a compromise could be reached. Every other board member voted against her motion, with the exception of Tim Whelan. “I was more than willing to listen and work for what they wanted, but I got out-voted,” Painter said. Board members Mary Lou Wehrli and Joseph Cantore represent the two districts containing the parks. Both voted against Painter’s motion. Cantore was asked by phone why he supported a project rejected by users of the park. He said he would call back with answers to that and other questions but did not return a call as of press time. Wehrli said the limestone paths are a proven trail surface at other locations. “I think we’ve got county and national experience that limestone is an appropriate trail surface,” she said. Board president D. “Dewey” Pierotti did not return phone calls for this story.

BOLINGBROOK – The Federal Airline Administration and National Transportation Safety Board said it’s too early to determine the cause of the plane crash that killed two people in Bolingbrook on Sept. 25. The FAA and NTSB sifted through wreckage before hauling it to a different location in order to determine the cause of the crash late last week. NTSB Investigator Joseph Lindberg said the lack of a black box and extent of fire damage makes matters especially tricky. “It does become somewhat more difficult because we have less airplane but we can still get what we need,” Lindberg said. The victims of the crash were identified as a Kentucky surgeon and his wife. A physician and surgeon of 27 years at Georgetown Community Hospital, Narayan Venguswamy – known affectionately as Dr. Vengu – and his wife, Jay, were flying to the Chicago area from Georgetown, Ky., to attend a medical conference, according to a Georgetown hospital spokesperson.

Narayan Venguswamy was piloting the single-engine prop plane last Wednesday evening when it crashed into a tree, light pole and several vehicles just feet from a Chase Bank bank building, 262 S. Weber Road, around 5:20 p.m. The site of the crash is just east from Clow International Airport, a privately owned, public-use airport. Aside from the two occupants in the plane, no injuries were reported on the ground, according to the Bolingbrook police Department. The NTSB investigator explained that officials will continue to interview witnesses and piece together information. “According to witnesses, [the plane] did land and rolled on the runway and then took off again,” Lindberg said. Recreational pilot and Naperville resident Dave Spears said he was in the air when the crash occurred. Spears, who has been flying small planes for several years, hypothesized that the pilot was trying to land in the wrong direction on Clow Airport Runway 18. “He was trying to touch

Cronin: Nothing decided on stormwater fee By NATHAN LURZ

sial bill allowing DuPage County to pass a new feebased system for stormwater management. Cronin said that, while he has spoken to the Naperville Chamber about the County in previous years, he wanted to address some specific concerns. “I reassured them that if this is not something that the community wants to do, and after an informed discussion about it we come to the conclusion that we’d prefer to just fund stormwater projects with a property tax, that’s okay,” Cronin said after his address. “I don’t have to go in another direction. But I owe it to the commu-

nlurz@shawmedia.com DuPage County Board Chairman Dan Cronin said that the stormwater fee bill passed in August, which some have called a “rain tax,” still is very much up for debate. During his State of the County address at the Naperville Chamber of Commerce general membership luncheon Sept. 23, Cronin touched on a variety of issues before business leaders and elected officials. Naperville Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Mike Evans said that Cronin’s reputation was as

nity to explore alternative ways to provide government services.” Cronin said that the fee, based on the amount of stormwater displaced by a property, would make the current property tax system “go away under my proposal,” but that “nothing has been decided.” “I’m not sure people understand that,” he said. “It’s a replacement. It’s a tax or a fee that will be, I think, far more fairly imposed than a property tax.” While severe weather has racked the area, Cronin said in his speech that the local economy is improving slowly. He said that he and his fel-

• CRASH Continued from page 18 down on Runway 18, but the wind was at his back,” Spears said. “When you land a plane, you need a headwind to slow you down. I think [the pilot who crashed] either stalled or turned around at the last minute.” It’s the second time in five years a plane has crashed in the vicinity of the intersection of Weber Road and Lily Cache Lane. In 2008, a small plane crashed about 100 yards south of the site of Wednesday’s crash. There were minor injuries in the Sept. 17, 2008 crash.

Andy’s Frozen Custard Manager Mike Grohar was assisting a customer at the ice cream shop neighboring the Chase Bank when he said he saw a male victim on fire running from the crash. “I heard something – a loud blast,” Grohar said. “I turned around then saw a man on fire in the parking lot. Two men were helping him – one draped a sweatshirt over him to put out the flames.” When Grohar went outside, he said he heard the victim yelling, “Somebody help my wife, somebody help my wife.” Witness Arpagus Poole said she was in the Chase Bank parking lot getting out of her vehicle

when the crash occurred. She said she heard a loud boom and felt the heat of the explosion and flames against her face. “Initially, I didn’t know what happened,” Poole said. “I just yelled ‘Oh my God,’ then ran to the neighboring parking lot. It was only then that I saw the wreckage and realized that a plane had crashed in the parking lot.” The crash happened at the height of rush hour at a busy Bolingbrook intersection. “It’s a sad situation but we’re very fortunate with it being rush hour that it wasn’t worse,” Bolingbrook Police Deputy Chief Tom Ross said.

• STATE Continued from page 20 improvement, as home prices have risen by about 10 percent during the past two years. Cronin said that the budget cuts, which included no new tax hikes or county jobs, more outsourcing to private entities and greater efficiency, were part of a trend in DuPage County. Cronin said that the DuPage Accountability, Consolidation and Transparency policies, which helped align the ethics policies of more than 20 organizations, and the formation of a task force to investigate better uses for the DuPage County Fairgrounds served as examples of optimization of county resources. “I embrace the mission of county government, and we do have a very, very important mission,” he said. “But I do think that we can do more with less.”

A NEW, FDA CLEARED STATE OF THE ART SOLUTION FOR BACK PAIN IS NOW AVAILABLE LOCALLY. If you have been told that back surgery is your only option, or if you have tried everything else and nothing has helped...there is hope! If you have a serious disc condition and are facing the alarming prospect of back surgery, you are not alone. Every day, we treat people just like you who have:

I Almost Agreed to Back Surgery. So Glad I Didn’t! “I had a severely herniated disc and three additional bulging discs. I met with experts in spinal surgery and they were ready and willing to do the surgery, but I wanted to try Dr. Papadopoulos’ program before agreeing to surgery. At that time, I couldn’t sit or stand for more than 30 minutes at a time. After Dr. Papadpoulos’ program, 90% of the time I have no pain and can participate in the activities that make me happy, and allow me to enjoy time with my family.”

I Am Finally Able to Enjoy Life

Our exclusive ProMed Method™ is considered by many doctors to be the most advanced and successful non-surgical treatment of serious back, neck, leg, or arm pain available. The ProMed Method™ is a gentle and relaxing treatment that has proven to be efective, and shown dramatic results even when traditional standard of care like drugs, epidurals, chiropractic, physical therapy and surgery have failed.

We have even helped people who have had failed back surgeries, and been turned away by surgeons because their case was too bad – including one recent patient who was told he would end up in a wheelchair by a neurosurgeon. Today, that same patient is pain free, and back to living a normal, healthy life – and you could too. • Non-Surgical • No Side Efects • No Down Time

Dr. George Papadopoulos, D.C., ATC/L, RKT • Developer of the ProMed Method™ • 11 Years Experience • Spinal Decompression Specialist • Licensed Athletic Trainer • Registered Kinesiotherapist “You don’t have to settle for back surgery. here is a solution for your problem, and new hope for your future! Come see how we have helped patients just like you correct their back problem and reclaim their life.”

“I found Dr. Papadopoulos through his ad in the newspaper. For about 25 years I’ve been sufering from low back pain and I was unable to do the things I’ve always wanted to do. I tried everything out there imaginable to ix my back and was ultimately hopeless. After several sessions of Spinal Decompression I have made a full recovery. I am inally able to golf, take long walks with my grandchildren and enjoy life. I would highly recommend Dr. Papadopoulos, his oice, and Spinal Decompression to anyone.

John S. | 81 years old | Retired Naperville,IL I Didn’t Think I had Any Other Options “I was referred to Dr. Papadopoulos through my daughter. Before I had been sufering from extreme low back pain, hip pain as well as leg and foot numbness for over 2 years. I was having constant back spasms and didn’t think I had any other options besides drugs, injections, surgery, or just living with the pain. Dr. Papadopoulos introduced me to Spinal Decompression and after the 1st visit, I was already noticing improvement. Now I never have spasms and I can live a normal life.”

Restaurant reviews

Taste serves savory Indian Chinese fusion A restaurant labeling itself a “fusion” experience often means: “We have sushi, General Tso’s Chicken and Pad Thai.” Instead of marrying tastes for a different twist on a dish or cuisine, it’s more about mixing menus to attract a wider variety of patrons. Not so for Taste – Indian Chinese Cuisine in Downers Grove. It takes Chinese dishes and ingredients and tumbles them together with traditional Indian spices and flavors. Hints of cumin, coriander, honey, chili oil and curry hit the spots where chili paste, hoisin sauce and five spice usually are. Even the interior is an interesting blend of the two cultures. Curtains at the doorway open into a spacious room filled with Asian vases, paintings and pictures. In the evening, the lights are dimmed for a mellow ambiance. Despite both cuisines being known for their big, sometimes overwhelming flavors, the fare at Taste is superbly balanced and understated. This type of fusion has been refined in the 100 years since groups of Chinese migrated to India and embraced their new country. My dining partner and I Suburban Life Media photos started with an order of the Shrimp Pepper Salt appetizer.

Saints will be toughest foe Bears face Hub Arkush

Hey, folks, if you didn’t want to be up all week with nightmares, you probably shouldn’t have watched the Saints dismantle the previously undefeated Miami Dolphins on Monday night to remain one of only two undefeated teams in the NFC. They are 4-0, along with the Seahawks. New Orleans has been one of the top offenses in the NFL since it won the Super Bowl in 2009, but has struggled mightily on defense in recent seasons. The Saints also had to overcome the stain of Bountygate in 2012 and play the entire season without head coach Sean Payton. But Payton is back this season, and he brought new defensive coordinator Rob Ryan with him. Suddenly, the Saints are looking like they could be

the most complete team in the NFC. Along with Jets head coach Rex Ryan, Rob is one of the twin sons of legendary Bears defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan. While Rob doesn’t run Dad’s “46,” he does run an attacking, blitzing 3-4 defense that many thought the Saints didn’t have the personnel to play. So far, these Saints are proving everybody wrong. But it still all starts and usually ends in New Orleans with the NFL’s most productive offense, led by All-Pro quarterback Drew Brees, who has thrown for more than 5,000 yards each of the past two seasons and is on pace to get there again this year. Brees gets rid of the ball as quickly as any quarterback in the league, and Payton and he seem to be able to read each other’s minds. Brees’ one foible is that he will throw the occasional interception. As quarterbacks around the league have learned, the Bears have a habit of turning those into six points. The ground game is spread fairly evenly among Pierre Thomas, Dar-

ren Sproles and Mark Ingram, with Thomas the most productive of the three. He and Sproles are as likely to be used as receivers as ball carriers. Sproles averages more than 10 yards per catch in the passing game, and is the most dangerous third-down back in the league. The Saints’ offensive line seems to shed Pro Bowlers – Carl Nicks to Tampa two years ago and Jermon Bushrod to the Bears this year – without losing too much in effectiveness. Until Rob Gronkowski gets back for the Patriots and possibly even after, Jimmy Graham is the best receiving tight end in football, and a matchup nightmare for every safety and linebacker in the league. He is Brees’ go-to guy on third down and in the red zone, and virtually unstoppable in man-toman coverage. Marques Colston is as dependable as any wide receiver in football, and Lance Moore, Nick Toon and Robert Meachem provide plenty of depth. The surprise is on defense, where

the Saints have been among the best in the league. While Ryan came to the Saints with a great reputation as a 3-4 coach, it was assumed the Saints didn’t have the personnel to play it. But Cameron Jordan, drafted in the first round out of California three years ago to play end in the 4–3, has proved a natural at the five technique and already has three sacks. Junior Galette also has been a force at one of the outside rush linebacker spots, and David Hawthorne and Curtis Lofton are tackling machines as the inside linebackers. Rookie first round safety Kenny Vacarro is an early front-runner for defensive rookie of the year, and fellow defensive backs Malcolm Jenkins, Jabari Greer and Keenan Lewis are playing aggressive football and are extremely productive. It is not impossible to believe the Bears were looking ahead just a bit last week in Detroit. This Saints team definitely will be the Bears’ toughest and most telling test of the season.

10. Trent Richardson (35)

CJ Spiller and Chris Johnson, Charles is an atypical fantasy horse in that he needs space to be effective. Unlike Spiller and Johnson, Charles is getting the space he needs. 7. Reggie Bush (55 in three weeks) – Another back that needs space, Bush has produced in all three of his starts. Of course, injuries are a real concern. 8. Marshawn Lynch (58) – Old-school workhorse has had two good weeks and two disappointing weeks. 9. Matt Forte (63) – Like Bush and Charles, he is a dual threat. He has been pret-

– The lowest scorer to make our top 20, Richardson should start to pick up steam on his new club. An argument could be made to move him up into the top five or six. 11. Jimmy Graham (81) – A tight end at #11? The guy is unstoppable.

12. Demaryius Thomas (64) – The best receiver on the league’s best offense is the first wideout off the board. The next tier of quarterbacks is Matthew Stafford (81), Tom Brady (64) and Matt Ryan (83). The pre-draft thinking involved RG III, Colin Kaepernick and Russell Wilson stepping up as elite quarterbacks, creating a glut of talent at that position. Consequently – the thinking went – you should focus early picks on dependable running backs

like Spiller, Ray Rice, Chris Johnson and Doug Martin. As so often happens, the plan did not survive first contact with the enemy. Spiller, who went second overall in many drafts, has been downright awful. Johnson and Rice haven’t been much better. Griffin, Kaepernick and Wilson have had some moments, but they’re not even close to sniffing the production of the top three quarterbacks. If you have Manning, Brees or Rodgers (especially in a 12-team league) chances are you’re already competitive. Throw in a few other decent players and you’re a contender. And if you drafted Spiller and Chris Johnson with your first two picks? Well, it’s never too early to get a start on those leaves that are piling up in your backyard.

Imagine, if you will, a world in which we could scrap the first four weeks of the fantasy season and start anew. Now, that might not sound great if you’re 3-1 or 4-0, but if you’re 0-4 or 1-3, a fresh start probably seems like a great idea. In August, no one was predicting that Peyton Manning would be averaging more than 30 points a game, and no one expected Trent Richardson to be playing for the Colts. Several “can’t-miss” first-round running backs did miss, and they missed like a Jay Cutler cross-body pass thrown off his back foot. The top 12 players, if the draft were held today (fantasy points in parentheses): 1. Adrian Peterson (81) – No one could blame you if you took manning instead, but

given the relative value of the next running back you’d have a chance to draft, you’d have to consider AP. 2. Peyton Manning (122) – Forget the notion that the first round has to feature running backs, running backs and more running backs. Manning is off to an unbelievable start and – given the plethora of targets in Denver – it’s hard to imagine that his success won’t continue. 3. LeSean McCoy (70) – The read option may not revolutionize the NFL, but it will undoubtedly lead to some more long runs. 4. Drew Brees (100) – Brees is currently fantasy’s second-leading scorer, averaging 25 per game. 5. Aaron Rodgers (73 in three weeks) – There is a fairly significant drop-off at quarterback after Manning, Brees and Rodgers. 6. Jamaal Charles (71) – Like

Downers Grove North junior quarterback David Edwards scrambles with the football during the Trojans’ homecoming football game against Lyons Township on Friday.

Defense not enough as Downers North falls to LT By ALEX SOULIER asoulier@shawmedia.com DOWNERS GROVE – A sluggish start did in Downers Grove North’s football team on Friday. The Trojans did not register a point until the fourth quarter and fell to Lyons Township 17-10 on homecoming night. It was North’s third defeat in as many weeks. North (2-3 overall, 0-3 West Suburban Silver) head coach John Wander could glean few positives following the loss, succinctly noting several areas the his team must improve upon. “We are not playing good football on offense,” Wan-

Lyons Township 17 Downers Grove N. 10 Downers Grove North leaders Passing: David Edwards 10-24, 172 Rushing: Edwards 22-90, TD Receiving: Vontae Diggs 4-95

der said. “We need to finish blocks, finish runs, finish catches, finish plays in the red zone and we can’t put the ball on the ground.” However, Wander praised the Trojans’ defensive fortitude and their ability to contain Lyons Township’s playmakers.

“For the most part, our defense played well,” Wander said. “Lyons only had a couple big plays on offense; other than that, our defense held them in check.” Downers Grove North forced consecutive threeand-outs on the Lions’ first two possessions of the game. But, after a throw from Trojans quarterback David Edwards slipped through the hands of receiver Richard Olekanma, LT intercepted the pass and began a drive at midfield. Still, the Downers’ defense stood tall in the red zone and limited the damage to just a field goal. By the end of the first half, however, Lyons

Township increased its lead to 10-0. The third quarter was a similar story for the Trojans’ offense, whose option running attack was continually swallowed up by the Lions’ defense. “It’s my job as the quarterback to lead this team down the field, create plays, get points and take pressure off our defense,” Edwards said. “Lately, I haven’t been doing that. Our offense was better in the second half, but we just couldn’t finish drives.” Early in the fourth quarter, North kicker Gareth Jones hit a 42-yard field goal to cut the score to 10-3, but

that was as close as the Trojans would come. On the following LT drive, the Trojans’ defense yielded a 47-yard touchdown pass, putting the game out of reach. Edwards finished with 172 passing yards, 91 rushing yards and a touchdown in the losing effort. Going forward, the Trojans QB said the offense needs to maintain drives while the defense works on limiting big plays. He promised a spirited effort on both sides of the ball when the Trojans face rival Downers Grove South on Friday. “We will come out hungry and with a chip on our shoulder,” Edwards said.

Trailing 21-20 at the start of the third, the Sentinels could not muster another score and lost, 34-20. With the defeat, Westmont falls to 0-5 overall and 0-3 in the Interstate Eight Small conference. With hope of the playoffs or a postseason run out of the picture after the fifth loss, head coach Otto Zeman hopes, instead, that his team can rally for each other and relish their role as spoiler. “Obviously, this is not the way you envision a season going,” Zeman said. “We just

Westmont broke a 7-7 tie when defensive back and twoway starter Danny LoGiurato intercepted a Mark Harper pass near the Sentinel goal line, weaving 93 yards the other way for a touchdown. It was the senior all-purpose specialist’s second big play in as many weeks. LoGiurato returned the opening

kickoff for a touchdown in the game against Seneca. Later, with the score 20-14 in favor of Westmont, ReedCuster manufactured a late, time-consuming touchdown drive to grab the lead before halftime. The Sentinels never recovered. “I thought we did a lot of things well in the first half,” Zeman said. “We exploited their man coverage on offense and made a couple nice plays on defense. We just couldn’t rebound after that late touchdown to end the half.” Westmont will host Dwight on Friday. Both schools enter the matchup winless and Zeman said that the team that makes the fewest mistakes will most likely net its first victory of the season. “We need to be more consistent and not give up big plays,” Zeman said. “We need to play 48 minutes of hardfought football.”

Mustangs snag third consecutive win By ALEX SOULIER

Downers Grove S. 31 Leyden 24

asoulier@shawmedia.com FRANKLIN PARK – Downers Grove South’s football team keeps finding new ways to win. After back-to-back losses to open the 2013 campaign, the Mustangs have relied on a litany of players to post three consecutive victories and claw their way one game over the .500 mark at 3-2 overall and 3-0 in the West Suburban Gold. On Friday, the Mustangs rushed out to a 21-10 lead, forced three turnovers – two fumbles and an interception – then relied on some key defensive stops in the fourth quarter to defeat Leyden, 31-24. Just one week after the team scored 21 unanswered second half points to complete comeback victory over Morton, the Mustangs let the 11-point halftime lead over Leyden vanish before a fourth quarter score sealed the win. Head coach Mark Molinari said that the wins may not be

Sometimes we dig ourselves into a hole, but I give our kids a lot of credit for fighting and coming together as a team. I think it is going to help us down the

stretch.” Mustangs quarterback Jordan Skach did most of his damage in the second quarter, orchestrating three scoring drives, completing six passes in a row and throwing two touchdowns to running back Le’Devin Smith. Skach finished with 172 passing yards while Smith caught four balls for 58 yards and two scores.

South’s slow start in the second half allowed Leyden back into the game, and the Eagles tied the score at 24-24 with under 10 minutes to play. The Mustangs’ offense then drove 77 yards on eight plays, sealing the victory with a 5-yard touchdown run from Alec Arvanitakis. Next week, the Mustangs will vie for Downers Grove bragging rights when they square off against Downers Grove North, which has lost three straight games after starting the season 2-0. “These games are always fun,” Molinari said of the rivalry clash. “Our goal is to keep improving our run offense and run defense.”

The 200-yard medley relay team of Gabby Sims, Gabriele Serniute, Maddy Sims and Emily Albrecht posted a winning time of 1:50.12. Serniute, Maddy Sims, Lindsay Mathys and Daria Wick also recorded the top time in the 200 freestyle relay, while Mathys, Gabby Sims, Wick and Albrecht won the 400 freestyle relay. During individual races, Serniute, Mathys and Albrecht led the way for the Trojans, each taking first place in two races. Over the weekend, strong showings from underclassmen helped the team win the Trojan Invite. Freshmen Lindsay Mathys, Emily Aument and Elizabeth Aument took top times in their respective races. North juniors Serniute and Albrecht also won individual races at the Trojan Invite.

DOWNERS GROVE – The Downers Grove North girls swimming and diving team boasts a powerful mix of returning state champions and talented underclassmen. After placing sixth overall at state last year, the Trojans are anchored by dynamic sister duo Gabby and Maddy Sims, juniors Emily Albrecht, Gabriele Serniute and Daria Wick, and freshman newcomers Lindsay Mathys, and sisters Emily and Elizabeth Aument. A 12-time state medalist, senior Gabby Sims won the 100-yard freestyle and 100 backstroke titles at state last year. Meanwhile, Maddy Sims – a seven-time state medalist – will look to bounce back from groin injury that hampered her at the end of last season. As a team, the Trojans took third in the conference and won sectionals before their sixth-place state finish last year. With a healthy squad and bevy of young talent, the girls will look to improve upon last year’s finish. The 2013 season began with promising dual meet victories over Naperville Central (94-92) and York (112-74). Downers Grove North also took first in the Trojan Invitational and seventh at the Neuqua Invitational. “I am really pleased to see how the team is doing so far,” head coach Judy Busse said. “I feel like this is one of the better teams I have seen in my years at Downers Grove North. “There is a great mix of seasoned veterans and experienced newcomers. Everyone has very high goals

If we keep working hard and stay healthy, it will be a very exciting year.” This season, the Trojans will face swimming powerhouses Hinsdale Central and Lyons Township in West Suburban Silver conference action prior to sectional and state meets.

Downers Grove South The Mustangs missed out on sending swimmers to state last season, and with a combined 17 freshmen and sophomores on this year’s roster, it could be a year of growth for South’s swimmers.

Losses to Lake Park (13055) and Benet (154-106) in dual meets started the season, and South was tested at the Lyons Township invite Sept. 13 and 14 and again at last weekend’s Downers Grove North invite. By the time the postseason starts with the sectional meet Nov. 16, the Mustangs should be very familiar with the competition they will face. Lake Park, Benet, Downers Grove North and West Suburban Gold conference rival Addison Trail/Willowbrook will join South at the Downers Grove North sectional, where state berths will be on the line.

How would you rate your improvement since the beginning of the season? I think I have improved enough

but there is always room for more improvement. I have made some good progress, adjusted to the increased game speed and learned what it means to be a varsity quarterback.

What has been the highlight of your season so far?

Why is the team playing so much better now compared to the first two games?

You have a big rivalry game coming up against Downers Grove North on Friday, what are you looking forward to and how are you preparing?

I’m not sure we are playing “better,” but I think we have made a lot of mental improvements – knowing where to be and when to be there. We have all the physical aspects necessary to be a great team.

The comeback win against Morton. We scored 21 unanswered points and the defense had a really nice stop with under a minute left to play.

We are preparing the same – solid practices and picking up our tempo as the week rolls on. It will be a good game, we just have to prepare and be ready.

Quarterback Jordan Skach hasn’t been the only cog in the Mustangs’ recent resurgence, but the senior’s play from the pocket has helped turn around the season for Downers Grove South. In Friday’s victory over Leyden, Skach completed eight of 16 passing attempts for 172 yards and two touchdowns, leading the Mustang charge toward their third straight win.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

With a new school year underway, it’s important to reinforce healthy eating habits with children — and the rest of your family. Why not go natural? nancy mehagian, author of the awardwinning natural foods cookbook for children, “the Supernatural Kids Cookbook,” lives by a term she calls “voting with our forks.” “When it comes to food quality we vote with our forks every day. even though statistics show there is a rise in childhood obesity and diabetes due to the abundance of processed foods with high sugar, fat and sodium contents as well as huge portion sizes, I remain an optimist,” mehagian says. She suggests several tips to keep on voting with your forks every day, including: n expose kids to natural foods early in life, as well as to different ethnic cuisines to expand their awareness of new foods. n Request local markets carry more organic food items and locally grown produce. n Learn to read labels and avoid products that contain additives or were grown outside the country. n take your kids to a local farmers market so they can sample produce and decide what they like. Don’t have a farmers market in town? Sometimes local farmers will allow people to come and pick their own produce — making for a great family outing, mehagian says. (think: apple and pumpkin farms this time of year for fresh produce treats.) n Start a backyard garden or container garden system so children can learn how food gets to our tables. “Kids who might not like vegetables change their minds when they eat something they grew themselves,” mehagian says.

Turn a can into savory autumn soup with some help from home by lisa messinger Creators Syndicate

Hearty soup is one of the most economical, easy and tasty treats of autumn. The contents of soup pots, however, don’t have to be either homemade or store-bought. “Halfway homemade” can equal some super spoonfuls that start with a foundation of canned soup, such as low-sodium chicken and rice, that gets a kick from quick-cook brown rice, a variety of diced mushrooms, minced scallions and fresh-pressed garlic, and corn chowder to which you add fresh corn kernels, diced red bell pepper, jalapenos and Cajun seasoning blend before topping with crumbles of cornbread. Chicken and rice that rises to the occasion:

Before heating store-bought (preferably lowsodium) chicken-and-rice soup, add quick-cook brown rice, a variety of diced mushrooms, diced celery, diced carrots, minced scallions, freshly ground black pepper and fresh-pressed garlic. butternut squash that’s even better: Before heating, add canned pumpkin puree to storebought butternut squash soup, as well as freshly ground cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Just before serving, top with croutons prepared by cutting cubes of well-toasted cinnamon-raisin bread. making room for mushroom barley: Barley is one of the healthiest whole grains, therefore ensuring this popular type of store-bought soup is always a good choice. Improve it even more by adding before heating minced tomatoes, chopped fresh cilantro and dill, from both of which stems have been removed, toasted garlic and a dash of cayenne pepper. Tomatoes that will tickle you: The lycopene that’s best released in processed tomato products, like paste, ketchup and canned soups, is an added nutritional bonus to the wonderful flavor of tomatoes. To store-bought tomato soup before heating, add chopped fresh basil and oregano, onions that have been caramelized and vanilla soymilk for a creamy effect. Turn up the heat on tempting tortellini: Even some “healthy” brands features tortellini or ravioli in a variety of their soups. To that before heating add small torn pieces of fresh spinach, the leaves of celery, diced mushrooms and chopped sauteed garlic.

n 1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves

Stir the picante sauce, soup, chicken, corn, beans, water and cumin in a 4-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours or until the chicken is cooked through. Stir the tortillas, cheese and cilantro into the cooker. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Serve with additional cheese, if desired.

beef up vegetable beef soup with more vegetables: Store-bought vegetable beef soup,

preferably the low-sodium variety, can be made more vibrant. Before heating, add small chunks of unpeeled sweet potato, zucchini, broccoli, onion, quinoa (the grain-like seed, high in protein that’s now widely available at major supermarkets) and a few dashes of powdered barbecue rub spice. Creative corn chowder: Before heating storebought corn chowder, add fresh or thawed frozen corn kernels, diced red bell pepper, diced, seeded jalapeno that you wear latex gloves to chop (and don’t touch your eyes during or afterward) and Cajun seasoning blend. Just before serving, crumble pieces of store-bought or homemade cornbread on top and drizzle with freshly chopped parsley. Lisa Messinger is a first-place winner in food writing from the Association of Food Journalists and the author of seven food books, including “Mrs. Cubbison’s Best Stuffing Cookbook” and “The Sourdough Bread Bowl Cookbook.”

NOTICE TO TAXPAYERS – ASSESSED VALUE REVISIONS Lisle Township, 2013 Assessed Values Median Level of Assessment: 33 1/3% Valuation Date: 01/01/2013 Relevant Real Estate Sales Information Used to Develop the Equalized Assessed Value: Sales Occurring Between 01/01/2010 – 12/31/2012 Your property is to be assessed at the above listed median level of assessment for the assessment district. You may check the accuracy of your assessment by dividing your assessment by the median level of assessment. The resulting value should equal the estimated fair cash value of your property. If the resulting value is greater than the estimated fair cash value of your property, you may be over-assessed. If the resulting value is less than the fair cash value of your property, you may be under-assessed. You may appeal your assessment to the Board of Review Illinois law requires assessed values of property, other than farmland and coal, are to be assessed of 33 1/3% of fair market value. Restrictions within Illinois law delay the change in property assessments caused by changes of actual property fair cash value. State law requires the assessed values are to be adjusted based upon data from the three prior calendar years before the assessment date. In appreciating markets, this forces current property assessments to lag behind recent sales prices, and in declining markets, the decline of assessed values is delayed. Contact your local assessor’s ofice to review your assessment if you believe the fair cash value is incorrect or you are not assessed uniformly with comparable properties in your neighborhood. A physical description of the property, which includes information used by the Township Assessor to create the assessed value, is displayed on their website. Please review this information for accuracy. Township Assessor Contact Information:

your appeal within 30 days of the assessment publication date. Dependent on the actual publication date(s), the estimated appeal deadline is November 1, 2013. Assessed values are one of the three variables which determine individual property tax amounts. The other two variables are homestead exemption amounts, if any, and property tax rates. Tax rates are determined from the budgets of all units of local government supplying services to your property.

THE CULTURAL SEASON

ELMHURST COLLEGE FALL 2013

The Shame of College Sports Taylor Branch

Inside the Vatican John Thavis

Last year in The Atlantic, Taylor Branch published what the commentator Frank Deford said “may be the most important article ever written about college sports.” The real scandal, says Branch, is the very structure of college sports, wherein athletes generate billions of dollars for big universities while earning nothing for themselves.

Journalist and “Vaticanista” John Thavis has covered three popes and the highest reaches of the Catholic hierarchy for more than 30 pivotal and tumultuous years as a correspondent and bureau chief in Rome. The author of The Vatican Diaries, he offers a behindthe-scenes look at the power, personalities and politics at the epicenter of the Catholic Church.

Thursday, October 10, 7:00 p.m. Hammerschmidt Memorial Chapel; admission $20

Technology: The Passport to Personalized Education Daphne Koller Daphne Koller is a founder of Coursera, the company that has enrolled more than 4 million students in its massive open online courses (MOOCs). She is a passionate advocate for technology’s potential to “open doors that otherwise would remain closed for the millions who lack access to good, in-person education.” Tuesday, October 22, 7:00 p.m. Hammerschmidt Memorial Chapel; admission $20

The LGBT Student and the Culture of Respect Eliza Byard The Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network is the largest organization in the nation working to ensure safe and decent schools for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students. Its executive director, Eliza Byard, is an innovative leader in advancing efforts to create a culture of respect for all students. Wednesday, October 23, 4:00 p.m. Frick Center, Founders Lounge; admission $10

Tuesday, October 29, 7:00 p.m. Frick Center, Founders Lounge; admission $10

Long Live the Queen! The Persistence of Gay Culture David Halperin What does Joan Crawford have to do with being gay? Quite a bit, says David Halperin. A professor of the history and theory of sexuality and the author of the provocative book How to be Gay, he explores how gay men develop “a conscious identity” and a “common culture.” Wednesday, October 30, 7:00 p.m. Frick Center, Founders Lounge; admission $10

What Roger Ebert Meant to Us How did a movie critic for Chicago’s second-largest paper win the Pulitzer Prize and become a national cultural icon? And how, late in life, did he become a figure of grace in the face of suffering? We’ll consider these and other questions with a panel that includes an Ebert competitor (Michael Phillips of the Chicago Tribune), a colleague (Neil Steinberg of the Sun-Times) and a protégé (Ignatiy Vishnevetsky of rogerebert.com). The moderator is Rick Kogan, a veteran of the Chicago Daily News, Sun-Times and Tribune. Sunday, November 10, 7:00 p.m. Hammerschmidt Memorial Chapel; admission $20
