GLEN ELLYN – Glen Ellyn residents headed downtown Nov. 29 to support local businesses and enjoy winter festivities at the Chamber of Commerce’s annual Holiday Walk.

The Glen Ellyn Public Library offered fun earlier in the day with musical performances, crafts and refreshments for community members before the Holiday Walk began with ice carving and the chamber’s Holiday Open House.

The open house featured performances from the Glenbard South High School Madrigal Singers and Elite Feet Dance Studio.

The walk’s tree-lighting ceremony was performed by Santa Claus himself, who then visited with local families at the downtown fire station.

Many businesses decorated their windows and stayed open later than usual for the Holiday Walk.

Grace Lutheran Church gave Glen Ellyn residents the opportunity to give back to others with its 13th annual Chili Supper, which took place during the walk and benefited the World Hunger Appeals Program.

Committee votes against proposed gas station

By MARY BETH VERSACI mversaci@shawmedia.com The future of a controversial gas station proposed for the northeast corner of Butterfield Road and Route 53 now rests in the hands of the DuPage County Board.

The board’s Development Committee voted 4-to-2 on Dec. 3 to recommend against granting a conditional use permit to developer Buchanan Energy.

The permit would allow the gas station, along with a proposed car wash and convenience store, to be built on a lot where a smaller station once stood.

The item will go before the County Board for consideration Dec. 10.

Plans for the 1.5-acre development have met strong opposition from local residents and the Butterfield Park District, which sits directly east of the property.

Concerns have focused on the health risks of having a gas station in such close proximity to an area frequented by children and seniors.

“Most of you know, the park district is not against this project,” Butterfield Park District Executive Director Larry Reiner said. “It’s just against the proposed location.”

Testimony presented by experts for the park district and developer at a previous public hearing indicated that

levels of benzene, a chemical contained in gasoline that is known to cause cancer, would not surpass legal levels if the gas station were built.

However, the park district expressed concerns about the dangers of any additional benzene in the area.

While the burden of proof was previously placed on the district to demonstrate the validity of its health concerns, ultimately, the burden sits on the petitioner to prove why the project should be granted a conditional use permit, Reiner said.

“Nowhere else in this county (is) there a gas station of this size surrounded by preschool facilities and other ac-

NOTICE OF PROPOSED PROPERTY TAX INCREASE FOR WEST CHICAGO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 33

tive and passive recreational use,” said Phil Luetkehans, the attorney representing the park district.

However, attorney Henry Stillwell said the development will not cause a unique adverse impact, and his client, Buchanan Energy, has met all the appropriate operational standards.

“There is nothing that justifies denial,” Stillwell said.

Development Committee Chair Sam Tornatore and Vice Chair Grant Eckhoff voted in the development’s favor, while committee members Peter DiCianni, Tony Michelassi, Lauren Nowak and Gary Grasso voted for a negative recommendation.

Concerns about the size and location of the development and potential traffic issues at that intersection led DiCianni to vote against

recommending the developer receive a conditional use permit, he said.

Before coming to the Development Committee Dec. 3, the gas station proposal went before the DuPage County Zoning Board of Appeals, which recommended that Buchanan Energy receive a conditional use permit in July. The zoning board maintained its recommendation when the Development Committee sent the issue back to the board in August to further explore any potential health risks.

In November, Buchanan Energy requested that consideration of the gas station by the Development Committee be deferred until the Dec. 3 meeting, in order to allow the petitioner to review certain aspects of the proposed development.

GLEN ELLYN – Glen Ellyn Park District and Glenbard Township High School District 87 are seeking to consolidate their many intergovernmental agreements (IGAs) to make their shared use of facilities clearer and more equitable.

Because District 87 uses the park district’s facilities more often, the school district will pay a $50,000 usage fee per year to the park district during the next decade.

That amount will increase to $55,000 for the following 10 years, if the agreement is renewed.

The proposed fees are similar to what Glenbard West High School – the main school affected by the agreement – has paid to the park district in the past to support capital improvements to the Village Green property, where the school’s baseball program plays.

“The proposed agreement attempts to provide athletic opportunities for Glenbard West, who has very limited resources for their teams and participants,” park district Executive Director Dave Harris said. “Glenbard West, along with Glenbard South, has facilities that are unique and helpful to the Glen Ellyn Park District in satisfying its participants’ needs.”

District 87 has experienced a growing need for facilities because of increased participation in extracurriculars, said Community Relations Coordinator Peg Mannion.

Glenbard’s partnership with the park district helps fill that void, and overall, Board of Education members are in favor of the revised agreement, Mannion said.

“We are very fortunate,” she said. “We have a very collaborative relationship with the park district.”

The proposed IGA would replace four other agreements between the park and school districts related to facility usage. It is the result of several months of ne-

gotiations between the two districts.

As part of those discussions, the park district sought ways to make its current agreements with District 87 more equitable because of Glenbard West’s greater need for park facilities.

Although the school district will pay an annual usage fee, the fee for the park district to use Memorial Field will be waived as part of the new agreement.

The agreement also includes additional school district spaces that the park district will be able to use without paying a yearly fee, including Glenbard South High School’s turf field and the Glenbard South and West auditoriums.

Some members of the park district Board of Commissioners expressed concerns at their meeting Dec. 3 that the agreement still isn’t as equal as they’d like it to be.

“This is guaranteeing their athletic program facilities for 10 to 20 years,” board President Jay Kinzler said. “This is a huge thing that they can just not worry about.”

Another item that came from negotiations between District 87 and the park district is the possibility of installing turf on the upper field of Newton Park, although that is not included as part of the draft IGA. This coincides with the park district’s goal of improving its facilities and would allow the field to be used for more than 300 days per year, a large increase from its current yearly use of only about 20 days, according to park district records.

The fees District 87 pays to the park district will support the costs associated with potentially installing the turf field.

The park district Board of Commissioners is expected to vote on the agreement at its meeting Dec. 17. While the District 87 Board of Education is scheduled to meet Dec. 16, Mannion said she was unsure whether the item would appear on the agenda for a vote.

Glen Ellyn to increase ambulance fees for nonresidents

By MARY BETH VERSACI mversaci@shawmedia.com GLEN ELLYN – In order to offset the costs of providing ambulance services, the village of Glen Ellyn recently approved increasing fees for nonresidents and adding new fee categories for assistance that does not require hospital transport.

In the fiscal year 2012-13, the village spent $1,055,372 on emergency medical services, according to village records.

Of that, $774,544 was reimbursed through ambulance fees Glen Ellyn collected.

The new fee structure, approved unanimously Nov. 25 by the Village Board, will increase nonresident fees by

remain the same.

Two additional fee categories will be added for Treat/No Treat/No Transport: $100 for Transport and Citizen Assist residents, $150 for nonresidents services.

Citizen Assist: $50 for residents, The Treat/No Transport $100 for nonresidents category applies to calls where medical service is given but patients are not transported to Expected annual a hospital. This could include fee revenues instances where a paramedic provides insulin to a diabetic Treat/No Transport: $15,000 to patient, and even though the $20,000 person declines hospital care, Citizen Assist: Less than $8,000 the ambulance still must go to the hospital to restock its supplies, Assistant Village Man$103 to $1,200 or by $219 to ager Al Stonitsch said.

Citizen Assist calls typical$1,400, depending on the level of advanced life support ly involve helping an elderly needed. The nonresident fee person who has fallen at home for basic life support services or in a senior living facility. In and all residential fees will these instances, no medicine

or diagnostic equipment is used by paramedics, Stonitsch said.

These nontransport requests make up about onefourth of calls received by emergency management services in the village, according to village records.

Because they do not involve as many expense, the fees for these categories will be lower than what is charged for services that require patient transport, Stonitsch said.

“Agencies are very sensitive in how they set these rates, as you don’t want to set them so high that you can all the sudden have the unintended consequence of discouraging the actual 911 call itself from patients who may become accustomed or know of this fee being so exorbitant, they don’t have insurance and they don’t bother calling 911,” he said.

The new fee structure will go into effect June 15, 2014.

Beginning in June 2015, fees will be increased annually by

the Consumer Price Index or 2 percent, whichever is lower, according to village records.

The rate structure also will be reviewed by village staff every five years or more.

While village staff proposed including a three-strike rule that would allow patients to use Citizen Assist services three times before being charged, trustees ultimately decided to omit the rule.

The board agreed to recommend that staff examine developing a policy that would prevent facilities from abusing paramedic assistance as a way to avoid hiring more employees to provide services.

“I really would like to see us come back and take a look at a comprehensive abuse policy,” Trustee Tim Elliott said.

Another future consideration includes introducing fees for technical rescues by the Glen Ellyn Volunteer Fire Co. These rescues could include vehicle extrications, which are typically covered under vehicle insurance policies.

I. A Public Hearing to approve a proposed property tax levy increase for the Winfield Park District for 2013 will be held on December 17, 2013 at 7:25 p.m. at the Charles R. Beggs Activity Center.

GLEN ELLYN – Glen Ellyn resident Jean Kaczmarek has thrown her hat into the 2014 race for DuPage County clerk, according to a campaign news release.

Kaczmarek filed her campaign paperwork at 11 a.m.

Monday to run in the Democratic primary election, which will take place March 18, 2014.

Kaczmarek, 56, is a 25year Glen Ellyn resident and first-time candidate. From 2005 until 2012, she served as the co-chair of the DuPage Chapter of Illinois Ballot Integrity Project, a nonpartisan organization that promotes transparency in the electoral process.

Kaczmarek is an advocate for placing the duties of the DuPage County Election Commission within the Office of the DuPage County Clerk, according to the release.

“If you ask any county clerk outside of DuPage what their number one responsibility is, he or she most definitely would say ‘administering the electoral process,’” she said in the release.

As part of her campaign, Kaczmarek also plans to address transparency and ethical issues at the clerk’s office and Election Commission, the release said.

A wife and mother of two, Kaczmarek has a general studies degree from Western Illinois University, and a background in corporate and nonprofit communications.

No other candidate has filed for the Democratic primary for DuPage County clerk as of Nov. 27, according to a candidate listing available on the Election Commission website.

Paul Hinds of VIlla Park, the chief deputy DuPage County clerk, is listed as the sole candidate for the Republican primary.

Git Ideas Q: My mom got new hearing aids a couple months ago. Are there any stocking stufer ideas for her?

A. Yes, we have some great stocking stufer ideas. Many patients have a busy schedule and may struggle to ind time to come into our oice to purchase supplies. Others may not drive Dr. Terri Lightbody or don’t like (630) 580-5777 to drive when the weather is unfavorable. For the hearing aid user, hearing aid batteries are a great git idea. We stock the highest quality with strongest output and fresh on the shelf, which last longer than batteries purchased at a pharmacy or elsewhere. Batteries can be purchased by the pack or carton.

Purchasing by the carton comes with a free pack of batteries. Along with batteries, we have battery testers.

Before the vote, Trustee Diane McGinley asked village staff whether the $105,000 line item for Glen Ellyn Volunteer Fire Company funding typically provided by the village had been removed from village financial plans in light of the board’s decision to add a fee to residents’ water bills to support the company.

Currently, the $105,000 is still part of the village budget, pending board decisions regarding future ambulance purchases and a sprinkler system program, Village Manager Mark Franz said. The funds would not necessarily come from property taxes, according to Franz.

If the board ultimately decides against using the $105,000 for the Fire Company-related items, the money could be added to the village’s reserves or managed with a tax abatement, he said.

The funds also could be used as additional Fire Company funding for the first year the fees are assessed, allowing the added fee on residents’ water bills to be lower, O’Shea said.

“I’m comfortable with levying at this amount at this point and doing our due diligence, and if there is an abatement that has to be made, regardless of how difficult it may be, we’ll make that abatement,” Demos said.

The VIllage Board also approved various levies for Special Service Areas (SSAs) inside and outside the village, including unanimous approval of a $96,000 property tax

GLEN ELLYN – The village of Glen Ellyn will levy about $11.5 million in property taxes for Fiscal Year 2013 to support village and library services and debts.

The levy amount represents an increase of about 2.7 percent from the previous year, Finance Director Kevin Wachtel said.

The $11,518,349 will be divided among the village of Glen Ellyn general and debt service levies and the Glen Ellyn Public Library general and debt service levies and special funds and levies, according to village records.

The vote to approve the property tax levy was split among Village Board members at their meeting Nov. 25, with Trustees Tim O’Shea, Dean Clark and Diane McGinley voting in favor of the levy, and Trustees Tim Elliott, Pete Ladesic and Robert Friedberg voting against it. Village President Alex Demos voted to approve the levy as proposed.

The owner of a typical home in Glen Ellyn with a value of $425,000 can expect to pay about $774 in property taxes to the village and $487 to the library for Fiscal Year 2013, Wachtel said at a previous board meeting Nov. 12. That is an increase to the property owner’s tax bill of about $33, he said.

8LETTER More bitter and partisan To the Editor: Our friend Walt Zlotow continues to be critical of Congressman Roskam and the Tea Party.

Well, I wonder how proud he is of our current leader and the Democrats in the Senate.

I guess he prefers someone who lies to us (“If you like your health insurance you can keep it, period!”), is a hypocrite (when he was in the Senate, he gave an impassioned speech against the Republicans using the “nuclear option”) and who is more concerned about PR than actually functioning as the chief executive.

Wasn’t this the man who was going to change how Washington operates and bring us together?

It sure seems to me that things are more bitter and partisan today than they ever have been.

However, I’m sure this can solely be blamed on the Tea Party and, of course, George Bush.

While I am not a member of the Tea Party, I believe their principles have a better chance of putting the economy back on track and bringing honesty and efficiency back into the government than the current administration.

Every year, Americans eagerly anticipate the arrival of the holiday season. We look forward to seeing familiar faces, enjoying our favorite rituals and creating new memories. Now more than ever, we appreciate our families, who provide us with love, support and stability all year long. As we give thanks this holiday season, we also should remember those who are less fortunate and don’t have the care and safety of a stable home.

November was National Adoption Month, and this COMMUNITY year, agencies focused on exVOICE panding adoption opportuniPeter ties for kids in the foster care Roskam system. In Illinois, there are almost 20,000 children in the foster care system and almost 3,000 are waiting to be adopted.

Though foster care is supposed to be temporary, the average wait time in Illinois is an astounding 4½ years. That’s why my colleagues on the Ways and Means Committee and I worked to pass legislation encouraging adoption so foster care kids can grow up in stable, encouraging homes that can put them on a path to success. This bill provides states with incentives to increase the adoption of older children, many of whom emancipate from the system without a family to call their own. It also makes sure that family members can claim guardianship to care for their nieces, nephews and grandchildren if their parents pass away. Lastly, this legislation ensures states maintain their commitment to post-adoption services.

Boosting adoption rates not only gives foster children a sound home base, it also protects them as an at-risk population. Without the accountability and support that a family provides, children in the foster care system are more vulnerable to predators in the community, such as those engaged in human trafficking. According to the Cook County Commission, Chicago is considered one of the targeted locations for trafficking because of its “large airport, central geographic location and elaborate transportation infrastructure.” To combat this real danger, I’ve helped advance legislation in Congress that strengthens data collection on sex trafficking in the foster care system, and another bill that strengthens penalties for people who “obtain, patronize or solicit” a prostituted child by recognizing them as guilty of human trafficking.

First Lady Barbara Bush once said, “Family means putting your arms around each other and being there.” This time of year wouldn’t be the same without our family and friends.

We should be grateful for their presences in our lives every day. From my family to yours, I wish you all a safe and happy holiday season.

I have had to visit the ER several times, and I could tell you, I would hate to have to depend on the ER doctors for my health care.

The DuPage County Board passed its 2014 budget Nov. 26.

The budget includes notable items such as a $250,000 designation for the Elgin O’Hare Western Access Project, as well as $100,000 for heroin awareness education.

At $434.8 million, the budget comes in $3.7 million less than last year and will keep property tax rates flat for the sixth year in a row, according to Finance Committee Chairman Paul Fichtner, .

“Everybody is looking to do more with less,” said Board Chairman Dan Cronin. “We are meeting our responsibilities – we are exceeding what is expected of us, I believe – in the area of county governance, and we are doing it with fewer tax dollars than any of our peers.”

The budget included a last minute amendment allotting $100,000 for the development of an educational campaign to prevent heroin use in the county. Cronin said the amendment is a “demonstration of our commitment to the issue.”

Originally, the budget specified $50,000 for the “Be a Hero in DuPage” initiative.

However, county board members Gary Grasso and Grant Eckhoff worked with the DuPage County Sheriff’s Office to secure additional funding to ensure resource availability.

Manager of Strategic Planning Tim Trotter, who is a staff representative for the board’s Judicial/Public Safety Committee, said the program stemmed from a desire to in-

clude various political stakeholders in one holistic effort.

Partners will include the Coroner’s Office, State’s Attorney, DuPage Regional Office of Education and more.

Though still in development, the campaign will begin with an educational website, Trotter said, that will address the dangers of heroin use, how to identify signs of addiction in friends and family and available resources.

Trotter estimated more details would be released in the next month.

Eckhoff, the chair of the Judicial/Public Safety Committee, said this was the first time the county directly allocated such funds specifically for heroin prevention. He said it was the board’s responsibility to marshal the assets of the county to combat the epidemic through preventative education.

He said he believed the website could be a way for those in need of help to know what is available. For example, if parents have a concern about their child using heroin, he said, the website could be a quiet avenue to obtain information.

Cronin said the program is one of many the county has endorsed or undertaken to fight the spread of heroin use, but that it is the board’s duty to do more.

“Everybody in public service is obligated to do something here,” Cronin said. “As public servants, we have been given the trust and faith and confidence of the voters and the taxpayers and this is a serious problem for our communities.”

GLEN ELLYN – Glen Ellyn School District 41’s Benjamin Franklin School is the only Illinois elementary school to be named an Exemplar School by the Partnership for 21st Century Skills (P21), according to a district news release.

The Exemplar program recognizes 21st century learning practices that are improving student learning across the nation.

P21 selected 25 schools for the program after visiting the schools to meet with teachers and administrators and observe instruction. These schools represent the first chosen by P21, as the organization continues its efforts to honor exemplary 21st century learning.

One aspect of learning in District 41 that sets it apart from other school districts is its strength in problem-based learning (PBL), according to the release. PBL uses real-world problems that are relevant to students to help them learn.

Restaurant reviews

Sample some 1960s style at Kitchen Eatery ELMHURST – Imagine an upscale 1960s diner, if that’s not a contradiction in terms.

Then add locally sourced, freshly prepared food. Combine with some good friends, and what you’ve got is a terrific meal at Kitchen Eatery.

Located right at the corner of Route 83 and St. Charles Road in Elmhurst, Kitchen Eatery is an oasis of calm at a busy intersection otherwise crowded with retail and banking institutions. With a delightfully colorful sign that you can’t miss, it welcomes hungry guests with a generous helping of ’60s style.

With wide booths, mod furnishings and a clean, well-lit atmosphere, Kitchen Eatery had me excited to sample its offerings on a recent evening, accompanied by two friends.

Once settled into our seats in a comfortable side dining room, I quickly identified that the steak quesadilla was something I had to try. Believe me, I was not disappointed, as the typically simple dish was served with a delectable salsa verde that I was more than happy to consume in its entirety.

Moving on to the main course, I doubled down on red meat by ordering the steak bowl, featuring seasoned grilled skirt steak atop two eggs (cooked any way you like; I opted for scrambled) and KE potatoes mixed with melted jack cheese, onions, bell peppers and mushrooms.

It was like a perfect dream of what breakfast every day would taste like if our arteries (and wallets) could sustain such a thing.

One of my friends opted for the grilled Scottish salmon, which comes with the vegetable of the day and herb-roasted potatoes. She asked if she could substitute french fries, and they were happy to oblige.

As someone who frequently orders fish, she’s not easy to please, but was more than satisfied with the filet here.

The other companion went for the steak salad, which tops a mix of arugula, roasted

The retro vibe of Kitchen Eatery’s logo is a perfect match for what you get inside – a kind of classy, 1960s diner feel, but much higher quality food than you’d expect from a typical diner.

Cowboys, Bears going in opposite directions Hub Arkush

The Dallas Cowboys will come calling Monday Night at Soldier Field in front of a national TV audience, traveling a course that could be the exact opposite of where the Bears are heading.

After jumping out to a 3-0 and 4-2 start to the season, the Bears have lost four of their last six, including division games to the Lions and Vikings.

The Cowboys, on the other hand, come in at 7-5 and winners of five of their last seven, including division wins over the Giants, Eagles and Redskins.

While the Bears are running away from the playoffs, the Cowboys just might be running into them.

Dallas has struggled to run the ball all season, ranking just 27th in rushing, but they are 15th in the league in

passing. Tony Romo is second in the league in avoiding interceptions, and the Cowboys are eighth protecting the passer and fourth in scoring, just ahead of the sixth-place Bears.

On defense, the Cowboys have been awful, dead last in the league in yards allowed, 27th vs. the run, 31st vs. the pass and 22nd in points allowed.

Statistically, the Cowboys and Bears have a lot in common.

They also have a lot in common on the defensive line, where each has one of the best players in the game – DeMarcus Ware for the Cowboys and Julius Peppers with the Bears. Beyond those two, both clubs have been devastated by injuries.

Dallas has had 19 different players get reps on their defensive line this season.

One constant for the Cowboys, though, is Romo, who’s taken every snap at quarterback this season and is again playing at a very high level.

Romo has completed 64.8 percent of his 440 attempts for 3,140 yards, 24 touchdowns and only seven interceptions.

herma Tru Doors

His passer rating of 97.3 is eighth in the NFL, oddly right behind Josh McCown, who is seventh at 103.6.

As luck would have it and as badly as the Bears’ run defense needs a break, the Cowboys are coming off their best rushing game of the season, racking up 144 yards on 30 carries Thanksgiving Day against the Raiders.

DeMarco Murray is the bellcow and, in addition to 63 yards on 17 carries against the Raiders, he notched three touchdowns on the ground.

The Cowboys really only have two receivers who scare you, but Jason Witten is a future Hall of Famer at tight end, and at 6-2 and 222 pounds, Dez Bryant is one of the only receivers in the league who can match Brandon Marshall’s production.

Since the beginning of 2011, Bryant has caught 223 passes for 3,206 yards and 30 touchdowns.

Dallas’ offensive line is average at best, but left tackle Tyron Smith is athletic enough to battle Julius Peppers.

Former Northern Illinois Huskie Doug Free, at right tackle, could be too much

for Shea McClellin.

In addition to their struggle to keep defensive linemen healthy, the Cowboys also have been without their second best defensive player, middle linebacker Sean Lee, who’s been out the past three weeks with a hamstring injury. But he plans on returning versus the Bears.

Brandon Carr has been a solid free agency acquisition at one cornerback spot, but Morris Claiborne, who Dallas traded up to draft in the first round last year, is suffering a bit of sophomore slump. Dallas also has really struggled at safety, where J.J. Wilcox and Barry Church are the starters.

Dallas’ special teams are among the league’s best in all categories and most of their special teamers were coached until this year by Bears Special Teams Coach and Assistant Head Coach, Joe Decamillis.

This game has all the makings of a shootout, much like the Cowboys’ 31-30 loss to Detroit five weeks ago, and it’s one the Bears have to have to retain any hope of a trip to the playoffs.

dling teams – the Packers (Mason Crosby) and Ravens (Justin Tucker). Denver, the league’s highest-scoring team, has the league’s fifth-highest scoring kicker in Matt Prater.

The high-flying Saints have the No. 11 kicker in Garrett Hartley.

The same challenge exists in selecting a fantasy defense.

The best defenses aren’t always the best defenses in fantasy. For much of the season, Houston had one of the NFL’s top-ranked defenses, but it ranked dead last in terms of fantasy production.

The Cowboys have one of the

league’s worst defenses – they are ranked No. 31 against the pass – but they are No. 7 in fantasy points.

Are there defenses or kickers on your league’s waiver wire that can help deliver a championship to your team?

Let’s start with kickers.

Blair Walsh, Garrett Hartley and Caleb Sturgis are likely available, but all three face a brutal schedule in the upcoming weeks. Stay away. Adam Vinatieri has lit it up two of the last three weeks. He may not be available, but even if he is, the Colts are at Cincinnati this week and at Kansas City in three weeks. He does have a nice matchup at home against Houston sandwiched in between.

Three likely available kickers have ideal upcoming matchups. Dan Carpenter of Buffalo is at Tampa, at Jacksonville and home against Miami. The Chiefs’ Ryan Succop

is at Washington, at Oakland and home versus Indianapolis. Nick Novak of San Diego is at home versus the Giants, travels to Denver and is at home against the Raiders in week 16.

It might be a bit tougher to find an available defense.

Arizona is available in 56 percent of ESPN leagues.

They have St. Louis at home, travel to Tennessee and then travel to Seattle. The first two games look like nice matchups, but you can’t rely on them in Week 16 in Seattle.

The Cowboys are available in 73 percent of ESPN leagues and have some intriguing matchups. They face the Bears on Monday night.

In Week 15, they have the Packers at home. It’s a great matchup for them if Aaron Rodgers does not play. In Week 16, they face another struggling team when they travel to Washington.

Kickers and defenses have become an afterthought in fantasy football.

There’s good reason for this: Because of most scoring systems, a solid output from your kicker or defense – say, 11 points – would be a disappointment from your starting running back or front-line receiver.

Still, having the right kicker and defense can be the difference between a fantasy championship and an early round playoff exit.

There’s a certain editor of a certain media company (rhymes with “claw”) who can tell you all about the importance of a fantasy defense.

We squared off in 2006 with our league’s championship on the line. Headed into the night game, he held a 30-point advantage. With nothing

but my defense remaining, the game was all but over.

That evening, Rex Grossman delivered several balls to the Green Bay defense … thus delivering a championship to yours truly.

For the most part, picking the right defense and/or kicker is a crapshoot. Some owners use the strategy of playing week-to-week matchups, picking their defense and/or kicker from the waiver wire.

The problem with this strategy – especially as it relates to your defense – is that you are continually selecting the best of the worst.

The conundrum with selecting a kicker is that the highest-scoring offenses don’t always produce the best fantasy kickers. The top-scoring fantasy kickers are Stephen Gostkowski (Patriots) and Steven Hauschka (Seahawks).

OK, that makes sense, but Nos. 3 and 4 are from mid-

Glenbard West’s Alex Passi drives towards the basket in a game against Glenbard South at the District 87 Thanksgiving Tournament on Nov. 25.

Hilltoppers moving on without Hayes

By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com GLEN ELLYN – While the Glenbard West boys basketball team was starting off the 2013-14 season last week in the District 87 tournament, it was the news off the court that had the biggest impact on the Hilltoppers.

After practicing for the first week-and-a-half with the squad, junior Keith Hayes has moved back to Arkansas, where he went to high school his freshman year. A year ago, the guard averaged 19.7 points per game, and his departure leaves a serious void.

“Obviously it is disappoint-

Next game Who: Lyons Township at Glenbard West When: 7:30 p.m. Friday Where: 670 Crescent, Glen Ellyn

ing,” Glenbard West coach Tim Hoder said. “He is such a skilled player who scores and creates shots for other people.

And he’s great in transition and a good free throw shooter at the end of games.

“It’s a huge loss for us. He is also a great kid and a great student, so it’s a loss in those terms, too.”

With Hayes having fit in seamlessly last winter, his teammates are disappointed at his departure, but Hoder said that everyone has realized that they need to move on.

“We are going to have to adapt,” he said. “There are now opportunities for other kids. We are playing three sophomores, two of whom are starting. So there are opportunities and other kids have to step up.”

Glenbard West came into this week with a record of 1-3.

The Hilltoppers beat Glenbard East 67-61 as part of the District 87 tournament while losing 72-59 to Glenbard South

and 66-53 to Glenbard North.

The squad then fell 77-72 to De La Salle in a crossover with the Hinsdale Tournament on Saturday.

“I think as a whole, Glenbard North by far played the best,” Hoder said. “They deserved to be 3-0. The rest of us were 1-2 and that is kind of where we are at. [Glenbard East coach] Scott [Miller’s] team is young and we are obviously young.”

Corey Davis averaged 14 points per game at the event and was named to the all-tournament team.

“He already does so much,” Hoder said. “I’m not sure how much more he can do. He will

be one of our leading scorers and he will have to continue doing what he is doing. He can do it all.”

Alex Passi, one of the three sophomores making contributions (along with Justin Pierce and Brian Cochrane) averaged 12 points per game.

Next up for the Hilltoppers is the team’s West Suburban Silver opener against Lyons Township on Friday.

“They have good guards,” Hoder said, “and they always shoot the ball well. They change defenses a little bit and they run a lot of motion stuff. You have to be very good fundamentally on defense to defend them.”

School: Glenbard West Year: Senior Impact: An important component of the Hilltoppers’ backfield the past couple of seasons, this senior went out on a high note. Rushing for 1,496 yards and 27 touchdowns on just 207 carries this season, the all-state selection also caught 16 passes for 237 yards and two scores.

School: Wheaton North Year: Senior Impact: Teaming with JP Forcucci to give the Falcons one of the top receiving duos in the area, this senior had another standout campaign. Biegalski caught 52 passes for 984 yards, averaging 18.9 yards per reception, and 12 touchdowns.

He also averaged 14.4 yards per punt return with one return for a touchdown.

School: St. Francis Year: Senior Impact: Returning to the field after sitting out a year as a transfer, Butler made the most his lone season as a Spartan.

Despite being sidelined for the final game-and-a-half, the running back gained 1,185 yards on 138 attempts, averaging 8.6 yards per carry. He scored 19 touchdowns and added eight catches for 111 yards.

School: Glenbard West Year: Senior Impact: Named to the Class 7A all-state team, this senior was second on the Hilltoppers in total tackles with 92 (37 solo and 55 assists). Additionally, Carlson handled punt return duties and also saw time on the offensive side this fall as a wide receiver, hauling in 11 catches for 245 yards and three touchdowns.

School: Glenbard North Year: Senior Impact: One of only three returning starters on the Panthers’ defense this fall, this senior defensive lineman was again a disruptive force and a handful for opponents. Leading the unit with 14 tackles for loss, Dombrowski finished with 51 total tackles (26 solos, 25 assists) and added three sacks.

School: Glenbard North Year: Senior Impact: A three-year starter for the Panthers, this senior was named the Offensive Lineman of the Year in the DuPage Valley Conference. Edwards, who was selected to the coaches association Class 8A all-state team, was part of a linemen group that helped running back Justin Jackson average 9.11 yards per carry.

School: Wheaton Academy Year: Senior Impact: A talented two-way player for the Warriors this fall, this senior topped the offense with 700 yards rushing and 11 touchdowns on 101 carries. On the other side of the ball, Gemmel finished with 31 tackles, six of which were for a loss, and three sacks to help Wheaton Academy to the cusp of the playoffs.

School: Glenbard West Year: Senior Impact: Another in the long line of talented linebackers for the Hilltoppers, this second year starter was third on the defense with 76 tackles (29 solos and 47 assists). Greeno added three sacks and also forced a fumble.

School: Glenbard West Year: Senior Impact: A main cog in a defense that allowed just 15 total touchdowns on the season, this linebacker led the Hilltoppers with 98 total tackles (25 solos, 73 assists). Hassan was also tied for second on the unit with six sacks and added one forced fumble.

School: Glenbard North Year: Senior Impact: Jackson’s stats this season were mind-boggling, especially considering defenses were geared up to stop the senior. Falling just short of the single-season state rushing record for yards, Jackson had 3,171 yards and 38 touchdowns while compiling 24 tackles and two interceptions as a defensive back.

Suburban Life ATHLETE OF THE WEEK MAGGIE DANSDILL Wheaton Warrenville South | Senior | Girls basketball Why Dansdill was selected: In her return to the Tigers’ lineup, Dansdill helped the team to a 4-1 record at the Schaumburg tournament.

A year ago, Maggie Dansdill was forced to watch from the sidelines as Wheaton Warrenville South advanced to the supersectional after missing most the season with a torn ACL. This winter, in her return to the court, she has helped the team get off to a fast start. Last Friday, the forward scored 11 points, helping WWS to a 48-43 win over Montini which capped off a 4-1 record in the Schaumburg tournament. Dansdill, the Glen Ellyn Bank & Trust Athlete of the Week, spoke with Suburban Life sports reporter Scott Schmid about her return and the team’s strong start.

How big was the win over Montini?

We were super excited to play them and we knew they would be tough. We had to

come out together and play our best and focus in and never give up.

What did you girls think about the tournament in general?

We all love this tournament, there are a bunch of hard games. It gets us ready for the season. We learn how to play together and we can figure out our mistakes. It’s outstanding.

How nice is it to be back on the court?

I definitely missed it. I love our team, we work so well together. I’m so happy to be back.

Glenbard North’s Justin Jackson ‘was phenomenal’

Suburban Life • mysuburbanlife.com • Thursday, December 5, 2013 • CD

By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com CAROL STREAM – As a young child, Justin Jackson had a better chance of being found in front of a television playing video games than on an athletic field.

In fact, it wasn’t until the second grade when he tagged along to older brother Phil’s football registration that Jackson decided to give that sport a try.

Now, many years later, the Glenbard North senior has created a lasting legacy for himself after completing one of the best all-time single sea-

son performances by a high school running back in state history.

“It’s not that I didn’t like sports, I just wasn’t really into them,” said Jackson, who began his career with the Carol Stream Panthers program. “But I am glad I did decide to play.”

Jackson’s opponents might have a different opinion. This fall, he rushed for 3,171 yards and 38 touchdowns in 11 games while catching 16 passes for 220 yards and an additional score. He also added two interceptions as one of the top defensive backs around.

Justin Jackson by the numbers 2013 totals • 348 rushes • 3,171 yards • 38 touchdowns Career totals • 6,504 yards • 84 touchdowns

“He improved every single year,” Glenbard North coach Ryan Wilkens said. “He was phenomenal as a junior and to be even better as a senior, that is really hard to fathom.

“He averaged over 308 [rushing] yards in our conference. That is ridiculous.

“And the defenses knew it was going to be Justin. Just with the quality of our conference, to still do that means a heck of a lot.”

In addition to his gaudy numbers, there is something else that stands out about Jackson.

“His character,” Wilkens said. “You would not think that’s the best football player in the state, whether you are just looking at him or talking to him. He doesn’t carry himself with braggadocio, he is very humble. What separates him from other players is not only his athletic ability but his character. It’s flawless.”

For his part, Jackson called the four seasons in a Glenbard North uniform the best time of his life.

“From playing with my brother as a sophomore,” he said, “to playing with those seniors last year and then playing with the guys I grew up with this year. We were back-to-back DVC champs and that hasn’t been done here at this school for quite a while. And also making it to state [last year].

“It was a fun-filled three years [on varsity] and we accomplished a lot. I think we took the program to a very good place right now and hopefully the guys coming in will keep that up and go on to win our first state title.”

Always one to deflect credit, the senior points to brother

Steve Bittinger - For Shaw Media

Glenbard North’s Justin Jackson races through an opening in a game against Lake Park this season. Jackson had one of the best seasons in state history this fall with 38 touchdowns and more than 3,000 yards rushing.

“It was a fun-filled three years and we accomplished a lot. I think we took the program to a very good place right now and hopefully the guys coming in will keep that up and go on to win our first state title.”

Justin Jackson Glenbard North running back

Phil and his father, Phil Sr., for helping out along the way.

“Just looking at the way my brother carried himself on the field,” he said, “and then my dad, on and off the field, he has had a heavy influence on both myself and my brother. He taught us about being a good person in the community and respecting others, on and off the field.”

Next up for Jackson, after

he concludes his time as the starting point guard on the basketball team, is football at Northwestern University.

“It’s very exciting,” Jackson said. “I really didn’t want to think about it too much before the end of this football year and before the end of basketball. But it’s getting closer and closer. Hopefully, I can show them what I can do.”

Celebrate the joy of baking with holiday gifts inspired by “The Boss”

Cake Boss Covered Cookie Pan

Cake Boss Linzer Cookie Set

Cake Boss Winter Cake Kit

Cake Boss Professional Jelly Roll Pan

Cake Boss Holiday Cookie Jar

Cake Boss Cake Carrier

(MS) -- The holidays are a perfect time to indulge in treats and spread the joy of baking with gifts that encourage friends and family to discover their inner baker. This season, there’s more to choose from in the baking category with the launch of Cake Boss, an extensive line of more than 200 “Buddy approved” baking items designed in collaboration with Buddy Valastro, the star of TLC’s hit reality show, “Cake Boss.” Offered

by Meyer Corporation, U.S. in partnership with Discovery Communications, Cake Boss covers all the bases for baking, decorating, serving, and storing cakes and other desserts like a pro.

Here’s a “baker’s dozen” list of gift ideas and creative ways to be sweet on anyone who’s been extra good this year.

Gifts For the Artistic Baker: For avid bakers who enjoy expressing their creativity through baking, a gift of a Cake Boss Cake Kit ($29.99) includes everything needed to bake like the pros. Ideal for the holiday season, the Cake Boss Winter Cake Kit includes five stainless steel cutters (two holiday bulbs, a small circle, one tree and one reindeer), and five plastic plunge cutters (two holly leaves and three snowflakes) to create fun shapes in rolled fondant. A ribbon cutter helps cut fluted or straight decorative strips in fondant or gum paste, and stainless steel decorating tips in star and round shapes (combined with the kit’s disposable plastic piping bags) make it easy as pie to pipe borders and create icing designs. An instructional booklet is included to guide bakers each step of the way.

For Serious Cooks and Bakers: Professional quality bakeware does double duty for baking up delicious, savory recipes, as well as sweets. The Cake Boss Professional 13x18-inch Jelly Roll Pan ($17.99) holds up to the rigors of frequent use with heavy-duty aluminized steel, commercial-style folded construction, and reinforced wire rims. Ideal for baking flaky pastry appetizers, as well as roasts of all kinds, the Cake Boss Professional Jelly Roll Pan distributes heat fast and evenly, and won’t warp or bend. A unique quilted, light-colored nonstick surface promotes even airflow for pro-style results.

Family Friendly Gifts: Buying individual presents for each member of a family with children of different ages can end up being costly and time consuming. A family group gift is a practical solution that also can encourage spending time together. One idea is to put together a “Cookie and a Movie Night” gift package with a few innovative tools for baking cookies, your own favorite cookie recipe, a decadent hot chocolate mix, and a DVD for a classic family-friendly movie. For the cookie baking tools, the Cake Boss Linzer Cutters 6-Piece Set ($16.99) in “Classic” and “Holiday” styles make it fun to customize these scrumptious sandwich cookies.

The Cake Boss Beechwood Rolling Pin ($29.99) has just the right weight and size to roll out cookie dough with ease, and a wide assortment of Cake Boss Cookie & Fondant Cutters ($16.99) in fun shapes like Stars, Hearts, Daisies, Round and Square provide multiple ways to make cookies in varying sizes.

Cookies To-Go: Cookie exchange parties are a great way to get in the holiday spirit and sample some new recipes. Surprise the host by pairing your cookies with a gift of the Cake Boss Deluxe 10x15-inch Covered Cookie Pan ($16.99). Bake the cookies and transport them right in this innovatively designed pan. Helpful drop zones stamped on the surface ensure uniform-

ly sized cookies. Long-lasting nonstick on both the interior and exterior surfaces prevent cookies from sticking and speeds up cleaning time. Finally, wide handles with red silicone grips in fun rolling pin shapes, and a translucent, tight-locking cover, make this cookie pan perfect for transporting baked treats to and from get-togethers.

Teacher Treats: If you have school age children, don’t forget a special treat for their teachers. Sculpted in glossy ceramic to resemble a bow-wrapped gift, the colorful pink and brown Cake Boss “Present” Cookie Jar and the seasonally themed red and green Cake Boss “Holiday” Cookie Jar ($39.99 each) are sure to impress, especially when you include home-baked cookies inside. Print your recipe on a pretty card and add to the cookie jar to be sure it never goes empty!

Two-for-One Hostess Gifts: Be extra sweet to your holiday party host with a dual gift of both a dessert and the Cake Boss Cake Carrier ($39.99) used to handily transport it. Offered in four retro-inspired styles, each durable and easy-to-clean Cake Boss Cake Carrier is spacious enough to hold a standard 9-inch two-layer round cake, cheesecake, pie, or other treat. The lid latches tightly on both sides of the base to protect delicious treats while they’re in transit and keep tempted fingers away!

For The “Cake Boss” Wannabe: It’s fast and easy to bake intricate looking cakes like “the Boss” with the Cake Boss 6-Cup Cakelette Pan ($16.99). Available in five different molded designs -- Star, Heart, Groovy Girl, Circle and Square -- each Cake Boss Cakelette Pan makes six individual portion, tiered mini cakes that look like they came straight out of Carlo’s Bakery.

In addition to gifting, you can use the assorted pan designs to host a mini cake-decorating holiday party.

Guests can decorate their own “cakelette” with icings, sprinkles, colored sugars, and even fondant.

Stocking Stuffers and More Under $15: Affordable prep tools are great additions to a baking enthusiast’s stocking stuffer. They also work well as grab bag gifts and extra special toppers to ribbon wrapped presents.

The set of two Cake Boss Nylon Bowl Scrapers ($8.99), crafted in durable nylon edged with flexible silicone, ensure that every last bit of batter, buttercream, and sauce gets scraped out of bowls. The heat-resistant Cake Boss Scraping Spatula with Measurement Marks ($11.99) features a durable red silicone tool head with a convenient reference chart of measure equivalents for cups, ounces, tablespoons, teaspoons and milliliters. For more whimsy in the kitchen, the Cake Boss “My Kitchen My Rules” Spoonula ($9.99) with flexible red silicone head for mixing, stirring, and spooning, includes one of Buddy’s favorite catchphrases imprinted on it.

Gifts For The Unexpected: It’s a smart idea to keep a few prewrapped gifts on hand when you need a last minute token for a neighbor, friend or host. For example, pair the Cake Boss 4-Piece Measuring Spoons Set ($6.99) with a boxed gourmet mix for scones, and a small bottle of quality vanilla extract. Wrap everything in cellophane with a colorful bow for the perfect last-minute gift.

(BPT) - Guys can be the hardest people to shop for, and finding the perfect gift has become a daunting holiday tradition. Sure, they will appreciate the thought behind another bundle of tube socks - and might even wear them - but there are gifts that bring a wow factor and make even the most stoic guys light up like a little kid.

Give tools for do-it-yourself projects You may not know every project the DIYer in your life is working on, so choose a multi-purpose tool. Tools like the Klutch Cordless Impact Wrench from Northern Tool + Equipment are the perfect partner for all those auto, construction or equipment maintenance projects.

This 24-volt, cordless wrench delivers heavy torque and includes four different sockets assuring he has the right piece for any job.

Fill his garage or man cave Every guy has a little space in the home he likes to call his own.

For some it’s the garage, for others it’s the man cave in the house, and for others maybe the garage is his man cave. Wherever he chooses to relax, he might enjoy a personalized beer pitcher or an under-the-counter fridge. His garage will also look great with a new toolbox or shop stool.

Find the unexpected Finding a gift he might get from a buddy will be a pleasant surprise for him. The Harley-Davidson 7-Liter Pilsner Glass from Kotula’s will turn heads and create a lot of laughs.

This giant beer glass can hold up to about 18 cans of his favorite beer and will make a big statement.

If you use these shopping tips for the guys in your life, you won’t even need to check your holiday list twice. With a good plan in mind, you’ll find options he will enjoy and actually use.

Is your child ready for a tablet?

Tablets are poised to grow more popular in the years to come, and many children are anxious to get their very own tablet. But many parents wonder if their kids are ready for a tablet and if such devices would make good gifts for their youngsters this holiday season.

According to a 2012 report from Pew Research, 22 percent of American adults now own some type of tablet, while In-Stat research estimates 65 percent of Americans, or more than 200 million people, will have a smartphone and/or tablet by 2015. According to a Fall 2012 report by the Media Technology Monitor, an estimated 26 percent of the Canadian population has a tablet, more than twice the amount of tablet owners just a year earlier.

As tablets become the device of choice, many different manufacturers have entered the tablet market, and children have begun to ask for tablets for holiday gifts, leaving parents wondering if their children are responsible enough to own a tablet that may cost several hundreds of dollars.

Price-wary parents should realize that tablet prices vary greatly depending

on the device. But a growing number of child-friendly tablets have entered the market, and such devices are designed to be more durable for children who have a tendency to drop and destroy things.

Those on the fence about whether or not to purchase a tablet for a child can consider these options. * The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Kids is a tablet that comes with a selection of educational functions, games and e-books. The device allows parents to decide which apps can be accessed on the device and restrict use to certain periods of time. The Galaxy Tab 3 Kids boasts a seven-inch screen and will run Android 4.1 or Jelly Bean. The front and rear facing cameras are considerably lower in quality than Samsung’s previous products, down to 3-megapixels and 1.3-megapixels, respectively. * The VTech InnoTab tailors apps to children in a compact device. The screen is just five inches in size, and the tablet comes packed with interactive e-books, learning games and other creative tools.

It also has a modest price tag for a child’s first foray into the world of tablets. * The LeapFrog Leappad Ultra is a kid’s learning tablet designed for children between the ages of four and nine. It comes with a seven-inch screen, Wi-Fi with kid-safe Web access and the ability to connect to a library of more than 800 educator-approved apps, books and more. * The nabi is an Android tablet that

LETS MAKE YOUR MEAL SPECIAL…

is geared entirely toward kids. The nabi comes in several different incarnations (nabi Jr., nabi 2 and nabi XD) depending on the age of the child and the desired features. In July of 2013, Fushu, Inc., creator of the nabi tablet, was received the “Best Tablet 2013: For Kids” award from Laptop magazine for its nabi 2 device. * The Amazon Kindle Fire is quickly becoming a go-to option for parents interested in acclimating their children to a tablet. Less than half of the price of its biggest competitor, the Kindle Fire still allows kids to access a bevy of features.

Music, movies and Amazon’s ever-growing trove of e-books are just some of the features that make the Kindle Fire a popular choice. * Though small, the iPad mini has all of the features of a larger iPad but in a more kid-friendly size. Many parents prefer the iPad mini for their children because they have Apple products and appreciate being able to share with their kids apps and information among all of the devices.

Determining if a child is ready for a tablet is a difficult decision for parents, who must assess how well the child handles responsibility, toys and electronics in the home. Adults may opt for a more durable, less expensive tablet as an introduction to tablets for children and then gravitate toward more “adult” options as their children prove they can be responsible with the device.

Holiday Sale “Where wishes do come true”

Did you know?

Christmas Day has become a big day in the movie business. Many studios now release big-budget films on December 25th, and audiences have recently flocked to the theaters to see some of their favorite stars in films that opened on Christmas Day or shortly before. According to Box Office Mojo, an online movie publication and box office reporting service, no film has fared better on Christmas Day than “Sherlock Holmes,” which premiered on December 25, 2009, earning just under $25 million in its initial day onscreen. “Avatar,” the 2009 James Cameron film that would go on to gross $760 million in domestic receipts alone, holds the distinction of earning the second most money on Christmas Day, when it earned a little more than $23 million despite having already been out in the theaters one full week. The 2004 Ben Stiller film “Meet the Fockers” opened three days before Christmas but still managed to earn $19.5 million on Christmas Day. A pair of 2012 films, the latest big screen adaptation of “Les Miserables” ($18 million) and Quentin Tarantino’s “Django Unchained” ($15 million), round out the top five highest grossing films on Christmas Day. Numerous films are slated to open on December 25, 2013, including Stiller’s “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty” and “Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit,” starring Chris Pine and Kevin Costner.

usic remains an art form that evokes strong emotions and holds a special place in many a listener's heart. The nearly universal appeal of music makes it a great gift come the holiday season, when shoppers may not always know what to buy a loved one. The following are a few gift ideas that are sure to have your favorite music fan singing your praises this holiday season. * Concert tickets: Perhaps no gift makes music fans' hearts race more than tickets to see their favorite musicians perform. Your loved one probably has a favorite artist or someone he or she has long desired to see live. Look into that performer's tour dates to see if they are playing your area anytime soon. If they're playing just before the holiday season, don't hesitate to give this gift a little early.

The same approach should be taken if an artist will be in town within a day or two of Christmas or Chanukah. Giving the tickets early enables your loved one the chance to clear his or her schedule. * Musical instrument: It's never too early or too late to learn how to play a new instrument. Shoppers whose loved ones love a good rock-and-roll riff might find guitars make a great holiday gift, while those who can't stop playing air drums should enjoy finding a real drum set come the holidays. When buying guitars, shoppers should learn which hand their loved ones favor.

M

* Music lessons: Lessons are the next logical step once a music fan has the instruments to work with. But even those without an instrument of their own can benefit from music lessons. For example, music lovers who want to learn piano can make use of lessons even if they don't have their own pianos at home. Lessons can be a great way for music lovers to gauge their skill levels before buying an expensive instrument. In addition, lessons can turn music lovers on to new instruments or new types of music they may never have considered previously. * Sound system: Advancements in technology have proven to be music to music lovers' ears. Music fans can now take advantage of crisp sound systems that make music that much more enjoyable. Sound systems come in many shapes and sizes, and they can vary significantly in regard to price. When purchasing a sound system as a holiday gift, look for one that's compatible with your loved one's existing components, such as a television or music player. * Streaming service membership: Unlike the days when music fans had to wait for local deejays to play their favorite songs on the radio, today's music fans can essentially create their own radio stations on their computers and even on their phones. Shoppers can buy their favorite music fans subscriptions to streaming services, such as Pandora or Spotify, and listeners can then tailor their own stations to include their favorite genres, artists or individual songs.

Staying local when gift buying has its benefits

T

he average adult must shop for gifts for friends or family members several times over the course of a typical year.

Birthdays, holidays and anniversaries are often the driving force behind such excursions, but some people will buy a gift for a loved one even if there is no special occasion attached.

When buying gifts for those we love, many consumers hope to find something unique. But unique items can be hard to find at the local shopping mall, where national chain stores tend to dominate. That reality highlights just one of the many benefits of shopping locally. * Local merchants tend to have more unique merchandise. A national chain store on one side of the country is not much different from its counterpart on the opposite coast. The stores’ layouts are likely identical and so is their inventory. Unlike such corporate giants, local merchants aren’t mass-producing their items, and chances are the items sold by local merchants are one-of-akind. Such items make for more unique gifts that recipients might find more thoughtful than an item they can find at larger chain stores. * Local merchants often provide more satisfying customer service. Larger chains tend to rely on automated systems to handle many of their customer service calls. Some consumers may never even speak to a real person when they call a customer service line, while others may first have to answer several automated questions before finally being connected to a real person. Local merchants tend to handle their own customer service, and consumers who have a concern or question about a product often speak directly with the store’s owner. That sense of direct connection gives consumers some peace of mind and can make them more comfortable when making their purchases.

* Local merchants tend to be more knowledgeable about their products.

Large chain stores might have many employees working on the floor or behind the registers, but those employees are not always experts on the products being sold throughout the store. Local merchants tend to have less inventory and fewer employees, who often know a great deal about the products on the shelves. Some employees might even have developed the products being sold, and that knowledge can be put to use when uncertain shoppers are looking for the perfect gift for their loved ones. * Local merchants are more accessible. Arguably the biggest benefit of shopping locally for gifts is the proximity to home. Consumers who buy products from merchants within their community won’t have to travel far to do their shopping, nor will they need to gas up the car if the item needs to be returned or exchanged. Some local merchants may even be within walking distance of home, making a shopping trip even more accessible.

Consumers often find shopping local when buying gifts for family and friends is a great way to obtain more satisfying and reliable customer service.

Finding time during the holiday season

P

to go Christmas tree shopping, inform others a few weeks in advance and let them know you want to go early to avoid crowds. This saves you time and might just help you land one of the best trees on the lot.

The same principle of planning can be applied to other aspects of the holiday season as well. Planning a meal early allows you to gradually stock up on menu items, saving you the hassle of rushing to the store at the last minute or planning a menu in the days before the party when you will already have enough on your plate. * Don’t shy away from shortcuts when hosting holiday dinners.

Hosting a holiday dinner is a big undertaking, one that often finds hosts spending a significant amount of time in the kitchen. But hosts can save time by taking some shortcuts regarding the menu. For instance, when hosting an especially large meal, don’t be afraid to buy some premade side dishes from a local grocery store or buy a bakery cake rather than whipping up your own homemade dessert. Guests will understand if you cut some corners in an effort to save some time, and the food will likely be just as delicious. * Stay home. Travel is a big commitment come the holiday season, but what about staying home this season? If the time commitment of traveling is something you truly want to avoid this year, invite some friends and family over to your home instead.

You might be more busy on the day of the holiday, but you will save yourself the travel days you usually build into the holiday season. Parents of young children might prefer to stay home so they can create their own unique holiday memories, while those without children might just appreciate some peace and quiet during this hectic time of year.

erhaps no time of year is as busy as the holiday season, when social engagements and holiday shopping combine to dominate so much of what is normally our free time. Additionally, holiday travel and late nights spent at work to make up for lost time also cut into our free time, leaving many people in search of ways to add more hours to the day.

Though there’s no way to make a day last longer, there are ways to save some time this holiday season. * Go it alone. Holiday shopping can be very time consuming, but shoppers who decide to shop alone may find themselves more productive and focused on the task at hand.

Rather than going from store to store and checking items off multiple shopping lists, shoppers who shop singularly can devote all of their attention to their own lists. * Shop online. Another way to save time when shopping for the holidays is to shop online. This saves you the time it takes to drive to and from the mall and walk around multiple stores, all the while saving you from the often frustrating and time-consuming experience of finding a parking space. In addition, you can shop online at any time of day. So rather than just eating lunch at your desk on your lunch hour or spending the last hour before you go to bed for the night idling away on the couch, you can make more efficient use of that time by doing some holiday shopping. * Plan ahead. Whether shopping for holiday gifts, taking the family to buy a Christmas tree or organizing a holiday dinner with friends, the more you can plan ahead of the holiday season the less time you will waste once the season hits full swing. For example, when choosing a weekend

by anne raih More Content Now

On tHe mOrning Of dec. 7, 1941, Japanese planes cruised across the Paciic Ocean and attacked the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The U.S. had been blocking Japan’s ability to trade across the Paciic, and the Japanese, who were at war with China, were looking to gain a stronger foothold there. By attacking the U.S. leet of ships, the Japanese hoped that they would have control of the Paciic.

On the morning of the attack, Japanese ighter jets dropped bombs and battered the entire base, killing 2,500 people and injuring 1,000. This surprise attack destroyed the U.S. naval leet, including eight battleships and 200 airplanes, and sent the nation into shock.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt addressed the American people the following day, Dec. 8, telling them that “the United States of America

WIkIPeDIA COMMONS PhOTO

was suddenly and deliberately attacked.” America was launched into World War II, one of the largest and bloodiest wars of the 20th century, and ighting stretched from Europe to the Paciic. The world didn’t emerge from that war until 1945.
