Police offer tips for safe, fun Halloween SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA The Hinsdale Police Department and the Burr Ridge Police Department released their annual tip sheets for keeping children safe and having fun on Halloween.

Hinsdale police suggest never sending children out to trick or treat alone. Children should always go as a part of a group, or with a trusted adult. The department also suggests only trick-or-treating during daylight hours. Although the village does not have a set trick-or-treating window, the department suggests ending the night at dusk.

On Halloween, children should avoid wearing too dark of costumes, as it can make it harder for drivers to see them. They should stay out of the streets and keep on the sidewalks.

Although Halloween is typically a holiday for children, many adults also celebrate during the night.

Many area police departments will be conducting special patrols to keep an eye out for unsafe and drunk driving.

If your child is trickor-treating after dark, the police department recommends adding colorful or reflective items to the costume

The Burr Ridge Police Department recommends only allowing kids to trick or treat at familiar houses unless they are accompanied by an adult.

Children also should stay away from dark homes and head to homes that are well

lit. Burr Ridge police also offer a window sign homeowners can place in their front windows to welcome children to trick or treat.

At the end of the night, any fruit given to children should be washed and examined by an adult. With candy, the best rule is “when

in doubt, throw it out,” police advised. Examine your child’s candy closely and discard any candy that is not packaged and opened candies.

Finally, the department recommends giving children a cell phone if they are out with friends so they can check in with parents.

Parents also are advised to have a set check in time with their children.

Both departments recommend the night also is an opportunity to remind your children about talking to strangers and what to do if they are approached.

Parents with questions for the Hinsdale Police Department regarding trick-ortreating can call 630-789-7086 and ask for Deputy Chief Mark Wodka.

During Sleep Out Saturday, kids will be filling stockings at the church to be donated for homeless teens.

“One of the reasons we [get involved] is to open up the [kids’] world view a little,” Hylen said. “So they see that Hinsdale is not what everyone has in their life and just because you’re cold when you wake up doesn’t make you less of a person.”

Doyle said there are several activities for the participants to do to further enhance the experience of being homeless, including group discussions and reflection periods.

HINSDALE – Children and adults across DuPage County will be sleeping on the streets this weekend to help them better understand the lives of the area’s homeless population during the annual Sleep Out Saturday. Organizers hope the program will help residents empathize with the condition of homeless people and draw attention to the issue.

This is the 11th year for the event, according to Lisa Doyle, communications manager for Bridge Communities, the main benefactor from the fundraiser. This event is their largest fundraiser of the year.

There are 75 sleep out sites across DuPage and neighboring counties. Participants will sleep in tents, cardboard boxes or cars.

On average, the event brings in $130,000 every year, with about 2,000 people taking part, Doyle said. The event has gotten bigger every year, but so has the population Bridge Communities serves.

During the 2012-13 school year, there were an estimated 1,200 homeless students in DuPage County. That number has increased to 1,600 homeless students this year, according to Doyle.

“There’s definitely more homeless kids, and the need is going up,” Doyle said.

Sleep Out Saturday is held annually during the first weekend in November. Doyle said the date is picked for a good reason.

By KRISTIN PEDICINI kpedicini@shawmedia.com CLARENDON HILLS – Residents in Clarendon Hills will vote on a referendum asking for their opinion about preserving the town’s charm during the Nov. 4 general election.

The question will be phrased, “Shall the Village of Clarendon Hills in order to preserve its historic small town charm maintain building heights at two stories or 30 feet, whichever is less, and no PUDS in the downtown as is consistent with Hinsdale, Illinois?”.

Village Manager Randy Recklaus said placing the question on the ballot was not a decision made by the board.

“It’s not a very clear thing,” Recklaus said. “It’s a misleading question.”

According to the village’s website, the question was placed on the ballot by a local group called Saving

“Unlike most jobs, teachers have [the] opportunity to earn extra pay in a plethora of ways,” Skoda said.

Skoda said some of these opportunities including coaching and earning higher degrees.

Looking at the question, Skoda said it’s the teachers union who will want to keep pension spiking.

“You can always see people

are spinning it every way,” Skoda said. “The system is broke … but honestly you can’t fault unions for taking advantage of these laws.”

In Skoda’s eyes, the pension spikes are mainly a state issue that Springfield needs to fix.

The referendum question will be an advisory question meaning it is simply there to gauge the general public’s opinion on teacher pensions.

“I suspect the vote on here will be overwhelmingly opposed to pension spiking,” Skoda said.

Election results in DuPage County could take a day longer than usual for the Election Commission to tabulate after Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan’s recent opinion on the counting process.

Madigan’s statement, issued Oct. 15, said ballots collected through early voting and absentee balloting cannot be counted before election polls close at 7 p.m. Tuesday.

Specifically, the opinion said running the ballots through tabulating equipment is a form of counting.

Joseph Sobecki, the DuPage commission’s assistant executive director, said waiting until 7 p.m. Election Day will definitely impede how quickly they can report results.

“Most likely it would be pushed back about a day,” Sobecki said.

Sobecki explained the absentee ballots are normally scanned into the tabulators during the day of the election.

During presidential elections, the commission sometimes begins the process as early as the Friday before.

Although the ballots are scanned, no votes are tallied until the polls close at 7 p.m.

Until then, the information is stored in the machine without any running total output.

As of Oct, 24, Sobecki said the commission received about 7,300 absentee ballots of the 16,750 people who applied for them. As long as the ballots are postmarked before Election Day, the commission will count them.

Natalie Bauer, Illinois Attorney General communications director, said the decision was released to clarify election laws because of procedural questions some election officials had asked.

However, the Attorney General’s Office has yet to make a decision on whether this process falls within its interpretation of the law. Bauer said the office has received questions about the process

The students – Julian Kanagy, Emily Morse, Dania Noghnogh and Caitlin Wong, all from the Class of 2014 – are four of the 19 semifinalists from across the country.

Students could submit one or more pieces, no longer than

The school had one finalist and two semifinalists in 2013 and two finalists in 2011.

“This is a remarkable achievement, demonstrating the strength and skill of our students and the caring, expert guidance of English teachers,” English Department Chair David Lange stated in a news release. “While one other school had two semifinalists, no other school in the country matched Hinsdale Central’s four.”

SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA OAK BROOK – The Oak Brook Police Department was summoned to Oak Brook Mall at 2:52 p.m. Monday after a driver struck several parked cars and then smashed into the vestibule of Neiman Marcus, 6 Oakbrook Center.

• SALARIES Continued from page 4 this, but the question doesn’t tell the whole story,” Mayor Mickey Straub said.

Straub said the important fact for voters to remember is in DuPage County, 27 villages award higher stipends than Burr Ridge for members of the village board, three villages provide the same amount and three communities give lower compensations.

According to police, the driver was attempting to back out of a parking space at the mall when they inadvertently moved forward and accelerated, striking a parked car. The collision caused a chain reaction that struck an additional two vehicles.

The driver then tried to The question on the ballot is nonbinding, meaning the board does not necessarily have to abide by the decision of voters.

If the village were to stop giving the $6,000 and $3,000 stipends to members of the village board, Straub said he feels it would send the wrong message to potential candidates for the position. “[Asking the question] is a waste of time and money,” Straub said. “There are more important issues and questions to ask the residents.”

Police said the vestibule was not occupied at the time of the crash and that there were no occupants in any of the cars that were struck.

of the vehicle were transported to Elmhurst Hospital and were released the same day.

The driver, who was not identified by police, was described as a 68-year-old Warrenville man. He received citations for improper backing and failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident.

HINSDALE – The Hinsdale Fire Department was called to structure fire at 4:07 a.m. Tuesday in the 900 block of South Bodin Street, according to a news release.

A resident of the home called 911 to report the fire.

Firefighters found the home in flames and heavy smoke coming from the rear of the home when they arrived.

Additional fire departments from neighboring communities were asked to respond.

The department reported the home’s electrical service was compromised by the fire and the power lines were actively

arching in the backyard.

All residents were out of the home when the fire department responded, but the family’s cat was reported missing.

Firefighters stretched a hose to the rear of the house and quickly extinguished the flames on the exterior of the home. Firefighters then fought the fire inside, while also searching for the family’s cat.

The department reported the fire extinguished within minutes and the cat was found unharmed in a closet.

According to the department, the fire is still under investigation, but officials believe the fire was accidental. Estimated damages were $50,000.

Hinsdale Police Chief Brad Bloom speaks at a news conference at the DuPage Health Department updating the community on the success of the DuPage Narcan Program.

Former Oak Brook resident Ed Heil suffered a tragedy when his grandson, Connor Kelly, died at age 18. But thanks to Heil, future tragedies my be averted by $50,000 he donated to the DuPage Narcan Program, which outfits local police with a nasal spray that counteracts the effects of a heroin overdose. DuPage officials say the program already has saved 25 lives in the county, and Heil has ensured it will go on doing so.

The odds of an Ebola outbreak in this region aren’t just low, they’re infinitesimal. But with the overwhelming national attention given to the few cases in the U.S., it’s nice to hear the folks at Adventist Hinsdale have made preparations anyway. Mistakes may have been made in Dallas when the first cases emerged, but local medical professionals are watching and learning from those mistakes.

Yes, I’m calling with respect to the “Stand up to the teachers union” comment in the Sound Off column. Basically, when they’re talking about a progressive instead of a regressive tax structure, that’s a very strong point, and it’s something that needs to be done in the state of Illinois in my opinions because we’re trying to work for the good of the state.

I think it is a function of the state to try to distribute the money evenly through the state. That homeowners’ tax is in a way regressive on some people, but on others it’s not. You have a lot of people that own land which has a lot of value, but the housing on it does not and they are trapped.

A public service message from the Illinois State Bar Association

Please Recycle Your Newspaper

creases would help Ray Graham Association. The answer is no, it would hurt. As a provider of services to over 2,000 children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, I am gravely concerned about the impact that an increase in the minimum wage would have on our ability to continue to provide services to this vulnerable population.

I believe that every working person has the right to earn a fair, living wage. However, the hourly rate of those employees who work firsthand with the people we serve is dictated by the state of Illinois, and despite the fact that inflation has increased almost 12 percent, there has been no rate adjustment passed by the General Assembly since 2007. This is unacceptable.

If the minimum wage is increased, agencies like Ray Graham Association, which receives over 85 percent of its funding to care for people with disabilities from the state of Illinois, will have to meet the new wage requirements without an increase in funding. The cost to my organization would be over $500,000. Service providers simply cannot afford to do this.

Where would this money come from? Would we reduce our staff or would we take away opportunities that we offer to people to maximize their independence and contribute to the communities in which they live and work?

We cannot move backward.

If the minimum wage is increased, there must be an increase in the rates paid to community providers like Ray Graham Association. If not, I hope that the state is prepared with a contingency plan to meet the needs of people with disabilities who will undoubtedly lose services or not be able to access them in the first place.

Police joins with mental health group to form youth coalition

By KRISTIN PEDICINI kpedicini@shawmedia.com HINSDALE – On any given day in the United States, more than 4,750 kids younger than age 16 will have consumed their first full alcoholic drink, according to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.

This statistic is just one of many found on the administration’s website, www.samhsa.gov.

Locally, one area organization has taken a step to help educate the community on alcohol abuse among the youth, as well as marijuana and prescription drug abuse.

The Lyons Township Mental Health Commission recently announced its plan to form a Youth Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition.

Ron Melka, executive director of the Lyons Township Mental Health Commission, said he believes society has seen a major change in the perception of alcohol, marijuana and prescription drugs.

“One of the things that struck me was that, while there’s a lot of [educational] activity regarding heroin and opiates, there’s not a lot of emphasis on the drugs that the high school and middle school students first start experiencing problems with,” Melka said.

Through the coalition, Melka said he hopes to see a change in the way prescription drugs, marijuana and alcohol are viewed are viewed by teens.

“Much of the focus is on preventing overdose or deaths,” Melka said. “We want to look more at the prevention of addiction, and we want to start early in the process.”

Organizations represented in the task force include Lyons Township High School, Nazareth Academy, Hinsdale Police Department, LeaderShop, Kiwanis Club of La Grange, La Grange Police Department and Pillars Addiction Programs.

“We’d like to discuss and

see how we could move the whole community to change the image on [substance abuse],” Melka said Mike Coughlin, the crime prevention officer with the Hinsdale Police Department, said marijuana is everywhere, and now many people think it’s not harmful.

“Alcohol is the most widely used legal drug and marijuana is the most widely used illegal drug,” Coughlin said.

Being apart of the coalition and working with youth and parents alike is important because every issue keeps getting younger and younger, according to Coughlin.

ANNOUNCING AN OPEN APPLICATION SESSION FOR ANNEX II, VILLAS & WINGS II Wednesday, November 5, 2014 HILTON OAK BROOK HILLS RESORT

• MADIGAN Continued from page 5 and is “looking into matters right now to provide additional guidance.”

The Cook County Clerk’s Office said it plans to compile early votes using its normal process, which it believes complies with the law and Madigan’s opinion. DuPage officials, however, are still working with the Attorney General’s Office before making a decision.

Sobecki expects if the Attorney General decides DuPage can’t begin processing absentee ballots until 7 p.m.

Tuesday, the commission will need to bring in more people to scan ballots. He estimates about 3,000 ballots would need to be scanned through each of 35 machines.

“Either way, the absentee ballots will be processed,” Sobecki said.

According to a clarification released by the Attorney General’s office on the opinion, the equipment used in early voting is legal because the opinion was not meant to address the act of casting a vote.

“The early votes are done on touch screens, so it’s not really affected by the opinion,” Sobecki said.

Staff writer Mari Grigaliunas contributed to this report.

Benet Academy (Lisle) Phillip Parisi Academic Achievements: National Honors Society Member (11,12); Spanish Honor Society Member (12) School Activities: Elected Student Government/ Student Body President (12); Elected Student Government Class Representative (9, 10, 11); S.A.L.T. (Serving and Loving Together - Benet’s campus ministry program) (11, 12); Philosophy Club (11, 12); Conquer Club (11, 12) Founder and President; Sports Announcer (11, 12) Announced sophomore basketball home games & Varsity home lacrosse games; Cross Country (9, 10, 11) Out of this 100+ member team, Phil was consistently in the Varsity “Top 7” athletes. He was elected a captain his junior year, and was a member of the Top 7 state-qualifying team; Track & Field (9,10) State-Qualifying athlete for the 4x800m relay.

Community Service: Through NHS, Phil completes a minimum of 10 hours of service per semester; Likewise, as the S.A.L.T. Co-Head of Communications, Phil both promotes and partakes in various service opportunities throughout the year. Examples of the service work Phil has completed include: Annual Christmas Drive Shopper; Annual Benet Golf Fundraising Event; Feed My Starving Children; Naperville Jaycees Last Fling Volunteer; KidsMatter Board Member (11, 12); Mission trip to Guatemala (12) Nominated by Kendall Hayes, Counselor: “After a two-year stint on the college admission side of the desk, this fall marks my 10th year working as a high school college consultant. I can honestly say that Phil Parisi is in the “Top Five” most impressive young people I’ve come across in my career. I met Phil for the irst time last spring upon his initial college planning conference.

Not long thereafter, he was elected President of our student body. Attaining Presidential status has been a goal Phil has had since his freshman year and it all came to fruition because of his innate leadership ability, careful planning, and precise execution. Phil quite literally hit the ground running his freshman year by excelling on the cross country team. He is a remarkable athlete who’s a repeat State qualiier and most recently held the title of Captain for our 100 + member, cross country team. Running cross country was a launching pad for a high school career chockfull of exploration, commitment and opportunities seized. Phil Parisi genuinely lives life to the fullest with integrity and a healthy dose of charisma. He strikes a balance between normalcy and extraordinary unlike anyone I’ve ever met. There’s nothing he won’t try. There’s nothing he can’t do. He’s truly one in a million.

Phil had this to say regarding his academic career here at Benet, “I’m smart but not nerdy. I care about my grades but I’m not obsessed. I spend time studying but also know that I have to stay sane by having a really fun time on the weekends and sometimes during the week.” That mentality has helped Phil perform exceptionally well within our accelerated college preparatory curriculum while taking one of the most rigorous course loads available compared to his peers. Teacher’s value Phil’s fabulous sense of humor, which keeps the classroom environment light and enjoyable. They also value his intellect and high level of discussion, which encourages his fellow classmates to stay engaged in the learning process. Phil is wildly creative and often develops witty titles for his papers like, “Hugh Can Call Me Phil,” which drew a comparison between Phil (who has a self-proclaimed “obsession” with wearing robes) to Hugh Hefner. Outstanding standardized test scores complement Phil’s impressive transcript and lead me to believe he is well prepared for the

scholastic rigors of any college in the nation.

It is with my greatest enthusiasm that I recommend Phil Parisi to you. His adventuresome spirit is inspiring. His leadership ability, utterly amazing.

You’ve got to love a kid who grabs the bull by the horns to accomplish his every dream and desire. You will be hard pressed to ind another candidate with Phil’s repertoire of skills and qualities. In addition to being truly upstanding, Phil is personable, humble and gracious. I respectfully request that he is given your highest consideration and hope you’ll feel free to contact me should you have any concerns about Phil’s candidacy..”

Wanted to ask, why do people continuously use the side streets, [in Elmhurst] the little streets, that they go honking their horns, won’t let any of us that live in apartments or houses get onto the streets to get on to drive, and you have to wait forever to even get out of your own driveway.

They should be considerate. They should be using St. Charles, they should use York, bigger streets, instead of West Avenue or other small streets, or be courteous for people who want to get out of their own homes and have the right to do so. We hear horns honking all the time and there’s always some kind of road rage.

Is vision loss inevitable with age?

The answer may surprise you

Saratoga Grove and Providence of Downers Grove work together to offer a full spectrum of care on one convenient campus.

HSL

(BPT) - Eighty-three percent of U.S. adults believe their eyesight will worsen as they age, no matter what preventive steps they take, according to a recent DSM Nutritional Products survey. While genetics and lifestyle factors do play a role for some serious eye conditions that cause vision loss such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), years of proper nutrition may protect vision in the long term.

More than 2 million Americans age 50 and older suffer from AMD, and it is especially prevalent among Caucasian women. “You don’t want to reach your 40s and realize that you’re beginning to have vision problems,” says Dr. Kimberly Reed, optometrist and Ocular Nutrition Society board member. “Following a few simple recommendations can help support your vision - and your family’s vision - now and in the future.”

Reed offers these tips for maintaining eye health and supporting vision in the long term: 1. See your diet in color Many brightly colored fruits and vegetables contain lutein and zeaxanthin, two powerful antioxidants that research shows are beneficial in maintaining macular health. Intake of 12 mg per day of lutein and zeaxanthin offers the best protection, but only 10 percent of Americans are getting enough of these essential nutrients, according to the American Optometric Association. For weekly meal planning this year, choose colorful fruits and vegetables that provide these important antioxidants, like spinach, kale, and other dark leafy greens, as well as corn, peas, broccoli, and orange and red peppers.

2. Omega-3 fatty acids for eye health A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that people with higher intakes of omega-3 fatty acids may experience a lower incidence of dry eye syndrome (DES). For patients who suffer regularly from dry eyes, omega-3 intake can significantly improve symptoms and increase quality tear production.

Adults should get at least 1,500 mg per day of DHA and EPA either by consuming fatty fish, such as salmon, mackerel, and sardines, or taking high-quality fish oil and algae supplements. Be sure to check with your physician if you are taking medications that affect blood clotting before increasing your intake of omega-3s to this level. For women who are pregnant or nursing, DHA is an essential nutrient to support infant visual development.

3. Remember your vitamins and minerals An array of vitamins and minerals also play an important role in maintaining eye health. For instance, A and B vitamins perform many complex and critical functions throughout the body, including the eyes. And, according to a study published in Ophthalmology, vitamins C and E, which function as antioxidants, are also essential to eye health and have been shown to impact the progression of certain forms of AMD. Finally, zinc helps deliver vitamin A from the liver to the retina in order to produce melanin, a protective pigment in the eyes. Get your fill of at least five servings of colorful fruits and vegetables, as well as nuts and legumes, per day to obtain these essential vitamins and minerals.

Even when striving to follow an optimal diet, it’s difficult to get the recommended amounts of essential vitamins and nutrients from food alone, so nutritional supplements can play an important role in maintaining eye health. Several products specifically formulated to support eye health and vision are available, so ask your eye health professional at your next appointment.

Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that affects people in every walk of life. It is estimated that 20 million Americans and 60% of diabetics suffer from this disorder. There are many kinds of neuropathy, the symptoms of which include burning, tingling, weakness, numbness, paralysis, and dull to excruciating pain - especially in the hands and feet.

Although many neuropathies have no known causes, neuropathy is often associated with other conditions. Examples are: Diabetes, shingles, toxins, autoimmune disorders, bulging discs that compress on nerves, spinal stenosis, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and poor nutrition.

Statin drugs and chemotherapy can also cause neuropathy.

Of the many causes of peripheral neuropathies”, says Dr. Kelenyi, “ a major one comes from a metabolic condition. You cannot drug your way out of a metabolic condition. It requires a change in lifestyle.”

Dr. Kelenyi says, “Diet is crucial when addressing peripheral neuropathy, especially in diabetics and autoimmune disorders. Harmful foods to be avoided include alcohol, sugar, processed foods, fast foods, junk foods, sodas of all types, foods sprayed with pesticides, and trans-fatty acids.

Sweeteners and additives contained in diet soda and processed foods such as MSG and aspartame can negatively impact the nervous system.”

As a Board Eligible Chiropractic Neurologist, Dr. Kelenyi performs specific metabolic and neurologic tests to help determine what is causing the problem. There are a few primary types of neuropathies: Large or small diameter or both as well as motor. If jerking is involved then it can be as much a problem in the brain due to trans-neural degeneration as it is in the peripheral nerve. A thorough and comprehensive exam ensures an accurate diagnosis.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 6TH AT 11:00AM

Ask yourself…

• Has your condition affected every part of your life?

• Have you tried “everything” (Anodyne therapy, physical therapy, Lyrica®, Neurotin®, or other medications) without getting the results you want?

• Do you suffer with other secondary symptoms such as falling, dexterity, muscle atrophy, etc.?

• Would you rather ix the underlying problem rather than cover it up with drugs?

HSL

For the last three years Dr. Susan Kelenyi, DC of Glen Ellyn, IL has worked extensively with peripheral neuropathy patients. Dr. Kelenyi describes peripheral neuropathy as damage to the nerves, which transmits information from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body. “This can result in pain, loss of feeling, and inability to control muscles, such as difficulty with walking. As with any other condition, there is no “one size fits all” remedy for those suffering from neuropathies and treatment may vary depending on the cause and severity.” However, many individuals can and do find relief using natural remedies. And this is where Dr. Kelenyi steps in.

FREE

Neuropathy can affect every part of your life - walking, sitting, sleeping, socializing, your ability to enjoy your relationships and so much more. If you have tired “everything” (Anodyne therapy, physical therapy, Lyrica, Neurotin or other meds) without getting the results you want then this may be the most important information that you ever read. There is a simple reason that most treatments fail, because at best they only cover up your symptoms and do not help your damaged nerves.

New Solutions to your Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

Topics to be discussed • What is and what are the main causes for Peripheral Neuropathy • Diabetes & Peripheral Neuropathy • If you are taking “statin” drugs - what your doctor doesn’t tell you could hurt you • If your nerves are damaged what does that mean for the rest of your body • Why your lab results do not tell the whole story • How you can live pain free with a clinically proven program

Additional therapies may include: oxygen, vibration, spinal decompression, cold laser therapy along with brain balance therapies to create a layered approach to “wake up” the nerves so they can function again and re-educate nerve pathways that have gone “hay-wire”.

Dr. Kelenyi says, “Our solutions are non-drug, non-surgical approaches, that are researched based and based on prior clinical success. The reason we achieve excellent outcomes is because we take both a metabolic and neurological approach in our program.” She says it’s a very rewarding way of practicing. “We get chronically ill people coming from all over the Chicagoland area, even out of state, to our clinic. The most important thing for these patients is results. We get results.”

Student finds adventure in Alaskan wilderness

By KRISTIN PEDICINI kpedicini@shawmedia.com LA GRANGE PARK – Imagine a classroom where chalkboards, desks and chairs are replaced by large tree stumps and logs surrounding a campfire crackling in the brisk Alaskan evening air.

For one La Grange Park resident, this classroom atmosphere wasn’t just a far off fantasy, but rather his reality for 28 days.

Frank McMahon, 21, recently spent four weeks on an expedition, packrafting throughout the wilderness in Alaska. McMahon said he decided to venture out on the trip because he’d never done something comparable before.

“I thought it would teach me a lot and I’d learn a lot of skills and do it in a safe way,” McMahon said.

McMahon’s trip – a course with the National Outdoor Leadership School International Headquarters – included 15 strangers comprised

while the others cleaned the campsite, according to McMahon. He said then they would take off on the day’s activities, whether it be hiking, paddling or just exploring the area.

The trip covered more than 220 miles, with 160 miles of packrafting and 62 backpacking, according to a news release from the school, which said during the trip, the group paddled portions of the Clear Creek, Cottonwood Creek, McClaren River, Sustina River and Talkeetna River.

McMahon described the trip as amazing, saying it was a great way to meet people and the perfect activity for anyone interested in the outPhoto provided doors.

Restaurant reviews

John & Tony’s Ristorante an inviting steakhouse WEST CHICAGO – Discovering an abundance of delicious options on a menu is particularly pleasing, given my dining companion’s finicky nature when it comes to food choices. John & Tony’s Ristorante in West Chicago ably meets the challenge with offerings of steak and seafood to pasta, pizza and burgers.

A fire glowing softly in the attractive dining room’s stone fireplace, and music by Dean Martin, Michael Bublé and other crooners created a relaxing atmosphere as we perused the menu.

The appetizer list quickly caught our attention. The bacon-wrapped dates sounded tempting, but so did the crispy calamari. Of course, we also considered the flaming saganaki and the antipasto platter.

We zeroed in on our dinner selections, deciding to forgo the openers and save our appetites for our entrees.

My companion ordered the 18-ounce, ribeye steak, cooked medium well, with a side of garlic butter sauce for dipping, and garlic roasted red potatoes. The garlic trifecta was completed with his choice of dressing for the house salad.

The steak was cooked perfectly and was extremely tender. The garlic butter sauce offered as a side condiment gave the steak an extra boost, but the cut of meat could certainly stand on its own without any embellishment.

I selected the Parmesan-crusted, bone-in pork chop with garlic roasted red potatoes and a simple house salad with balsamic vinaigrette. The chop was about half an inch thick, and lavishly crusted with Parmesan cheese, offering great flavor and a moist cut.

The garlic roasted red potatoes were a tasty side dish to both the steak and pork chop.

A garnish of thinly sliced spirals of carrots and beets provided an aesthetic touch with a nice crunch.

HINSDALE – It’s state title or bust for Hinsdale Central’s girls tennis team each season.

Rugile Valiunaite and her teammates welcomed that pressure and thrived under it, and the Red Devils officially wrapped up their second straight state title, and seventh in the last nine years, on Saturday.

“I think it’s a little bit more pressure for the players because we’re putting it on the line,” said Valiunaite, the lone senior to play at state for the Red Devils. “We came into the tournament fighting and we kept going, we didn’t stop.

That’s the way it’s been and we didn’t want it to stop.”

“It felt really good because we had a solid team and we were all ready to play at state, and we did really well,” sophomore Bella Lorenzini said.

“We took it one match at a time and we were all business.”

Central had the title locked up by the end of the second day of tournament play on Oct. 24, but solid showings on Saturday made for an even better finish.

The 49 points the Red Devils scored were the second-most in state tournament history and the most since they tallied 50 points on their way to the title in 2007.

“My initial thought was what an incredible job the entire team did,” head coach Robin Kramer said. “It was such a well-balanced performance between singles and doubles.

“We ended up scoring the second-most points in history, so we’re in the team photo for best tournament.”

Valiunaite and junior Sandra Keta won their final match 6-7 (2), 6-3, 6-4 to finish third in the doubles bracket. Sophomore Erika Oku and freshman Stephanie Dolehide were second in doubles after a 7-6 (7-4), 6-4 match against Vinaya Rao and Katherine Harvey of Stevenson.

Hinsdale Central’s Rugile Valiunaite returns a shot Oct. 23 during the girls tennis state tournament. Valiunaite and doubles partner Sandra Keta finished third as the Red Devils won the team title for the second year in a row.

Lorenzini made it to the singles championship match for the second year in a row and finished second following a 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 match against Brienne Minor of Carmel.

“Even though I got second for the second year in a row,

it was still a great tournament because I played a great player in the finals,” Lorenzini said.

Junior Sophia Haleas finished in the top 12 in the singles draw and finished with a 5-2 record at state. The Red

Devils combined to post a 23-5 record at state.

“I knew we had the potential to be that good, but you never know going into a state tourney because a lot of it is out of your control,” Kramer said. “They all played great.”

Red Devils ready for tough test from Redwings

By JASON ROSSI

Playoff matchup

jrossi@shawmedia.com HINSDALE – Jimmy Thompson wasn’t about to let Hinsdale Central’s recent run of success against Downers Grove North end on his watch.

Thompson and the Red Devils retained possession of the Old Oaken Bucket for the eighth straight season with a 34-18 win against the host Trojans on Oct. 24.

“It was a good feeling,” Thompson said. “We didn’t want to be the group to let down, we wanted to keep the tradition going, and to be seniors winning it, it means something special to us.”

Juwan Edmund ran for 165 yards and two touchdowns and Matt Rafferty tossed three touchdown passes to Thomas Ives as the Red Devils (7-2) pulled away after a slow start.

“I thought we came out a little flat in the beginning ... but we were able to rally the kids in the second quarter and we got going and we built off of that,” Central head coach Dan Hartman said.

The win not only secured the Old Oaken Bucket, but also helped the Red Devils get

Hinsdale Central’s Bradley Huth runs the opening kickoff Oct. 24 in a game against Downers Grove North. The Red Devils won to maintain the Old Oaken Bucket trophy and earn a home playoff game. a home playoff game in a loaded Class 8A field. Benet visits Dickinson Field on Saturday in the postseason opener.

Both teams share similar traits: • Both played a tough conference schedule, Central in the West Suburban Silver, Benet in the East Suburban Catholic.

Each finished with a winning

record in the conference.

• Each team has shown it can be explosive offensively. Benet closed the regular season with a 66-point game against Marian Catholic. Hinsdale was consistently high octane in the regular season, scoring more than 40 points three times.

• The defenses for both

teams has been strong. Hinsdale Central kept potent offenses from Bolingbrook and Oak Park-River Forest under wraps in a pair of victories.

Benet posted one shutout and held opponents to single digits in two other games.

“Defensively they’re very good. Great middle linebacker [Charlie Weidenbach], they have some excellent defensive lineman and they’re secondary is very good,” Hartman said. “They played in a tough conference all year and they should be well-prepared. It

should be a great test.”

This will be Central’s second home playoff game in the last five years, and it will be looking for a better result than a 28-24 loss in the first round in 2012.

“It’s an opportunity for us to have another game on Dickinson and it means a lot to the seniors, especially, knowing that Oak Park wasn’t going to be the last game we played out here,” Thompson said. “Hopefully this isn’t the last one either, but we have to take it one at a time.”

Rivalry win sets stage for Hinsdale South’s football playoff push

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com DARIEN – Matt Brandeis took some time to linger on the field at Hinsdale South and savor a win against Downers Grove South, and with good reason.

Brandeis and his teammates on defense pitched a shutout in a 7-0 victory Oct. 24, which helped secure the Rebel Cannon, the traveling trophy that goes to the winner each season, for the first time since 2005.

In fact, it was the Hornets’ second shutout of a Downers Grove school after a 6-0 win against Downers Grove North in Week 2 and a win that provides plenty of momentum heading into tonight’s playoff game against Crystal Lake Central.

“Playoffs is a whole new thing, but this definitely helps us,” Brandeis said. “This is great momentum, shutting out

DGS and getting that Cannon.”

With both teams playing solid defense, Robby Regan’s 1-yard touchdown run on fourth down in the second quarter proved to be the difference. Dylan Boye gained 69 yards on the scoring drive, including a 40-yard chunk on one play. Downers Grove South’s lone march into scoring territory ended with a lost fumble.

In addition to being the second shutout of the season, the win against Downers Grove South (6-3), it was the fifth time an opponent scored 10 points or less. The Hornets surrendered just 30 points in five home games during the regular season, and they will be looking for that same kind of effort in the playoff opener tonight against a Crystal Lake Central team averaging 38 points per game.

“I think offense can win games and defense can win championships and we believe that,” Hinsdale South head

coach Mike Barry said. “We’ve put a lot of time into our defense, and our coaches on that side – [Nate] Wolkow, [Dave] Isaacson, [Jarrod] Amolsch, [D.J.] King and [Marcus] Curry – do a great job.”

Like Brandeis, Barry said the momentum from the rivalry win against DGS can be a boost in preparation for the postseason.

“Anytime you can end with a little bit of extra juice, it helps you,” Barry said. “Kids show up with a little bit more energy and enthusiasm.”

DGS is also playoff-bound, but is looking to regroup after its five-game winning streak was snapped.

“We’re going to flush this one behind us and learn from it,” DGS head coach Mark Molinari said. “We’re not going to dwell on it. We have to get a five game winning streak to win state. We’ve already had one this year, so let’s do it again.”

Shootout win sends HC to sectional final

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmdia.com WESTERN SPRINGS – It was a bigger stage, but it was a scenario Wes Bergevin was very familiar with.

The Hinsdale Central senior goalkeeper recalled a game earlier this season against Oak Park-River Forest after the Red Devils defeated rival Lyons Township on penalty kicks in a sectional semifinal game Tuesday night.

“The stage is a little bit bigger, but PKs are PKs,” Bergevin said. “We work on them a lot in practice, so we kind of get used to it, and we practice it over and over so we know where to go and how to execute, and the guys did a good job tonight.”

Bergevin saved two of LT’s four penalty kicks while Jack Baderman, Evan Floersch, Justin Yi and Bryan Loebig all converted as Central (15-44) won 1-0 after 100 minutes of scoreless soccer.

“Obviously we didn’t want it to go to PKs, but it did,” Bergevin said. “The guys kept them scoreless for 100 minutes. It’s just unfortunate the game has to be decided on PKs, but it does and guys stepped up and got the job done.”

LT had a few dangerous chances in regulation, including two shots that got past Bergevin and hit off the goal frame, but for the most part

The Red Devils move on to face Morton (24-1-2) in the sectional championship game at LT’s south campus on Saturday. The two teams met early in the season in the title game of the Hinsdale Invite tournament with Morton winning 3-0.

The Mustangs feature a high-powered offense fueled by strong attacking play from a slew of midfielders.

The Red Devils counter with Bergevin, who was recently one of 42 players from around the country invited to the Fourth Annual High School Soccer All-American game, and Floersch as part of a solid defense.

“They’re good,” Central head coach Mike Wiggins said of Morton. “They’re certainly going to create problems, but at the same time we know what to expect. I guess what helps is when you’ve got three days to prepare, and we’ll take advantage of those three days.”

Lyons Township also has a strong team and finished third in the regional without its top three runners. Central

also sat two of its top three runners. Both teams will need to be at full strength for a sectional that adds powerful teams from Sandburg and Neuqua Valley.

The girls had less competition and dominated accordingly. Sophomore Alexa Haff, who has been Central’s top runner, sat out the regional.

“We knew we could go out there and definitely get some of the top spots in the meet so that’s what we did,” Zaher said. “Obviously, we provide competition for ourselves.”

They are expecting more competition at the sectional, which will take place at Midlothian Meadows.

“Definitely there will be a little better competition,” Revord said. “We just want to go out and do our best like almost every race that we’ve run. Just go all out to make it to state.”

HINSDALE – Hinsdale Central cross country, both boys and girls teams, have strong squads this year so putting them on their home course was an extra advantage they almost didn’t need.

The Red Devils won both regional races Saturday in fairly dominant fashion. The girls went 1-2-3 with Annie Zaher winning and being closely followed by freshmen Grace McCabe and Reilly Revord.

The boys won against a loaded field with Blake Evertsen (second), Josh Feldman (fifth) and Alex Domiano (sixth) leading the way.

“Our team ran here at least four or five times this season for races so we know it pretty well,” Evertsen said. “We know the hard parts and the easy parts. I think that was an advantage.”

The boys edged past Downers Grove North 44-51 for the title. The Trojans were led by Ryan Clevenger, who won the race in 14:52. Evertsen was next to finish at 15:14.

“The first 300 I saw him go and I just tried to stay with him as much as I could,” Evertsen said. “Obviously it

Can the Bears’ season be saved?

Bears general manager Phil Emery and coach Marc Trestman met the media to answer questions on the day after the Bears’ 51-23 loss to the New England Patriots and expressed a firm belief the season could be saved.

Trestman explained things will get better after the bye, “Because it shows up that we can get it done. These are things that are correctable.

“Our ability to create some turnovers will help us. Our ability to match up better will help us. I’ve seen this happen over time after a bye week, where teams find themselves.

“And I feel confident that we’re going to find our way through this and get back in a position where we are playing more consistently, to where we are playing the kind of game we played against Atlanta, that we played against San Francisco.”

It is, however, exactly that kind of answer that creates more questions than confidence.

The Falcons are one of the worst teams in the league, and the Bears were awful against the 49ers for three quarters and aren’t in that game if San Francisco doesn’t commit 16 penalties and four

CHICAGO FOOTBALL.COM Hub Arkush bad turnovers.

Emery analyzed Jared Allen’s play to date.

“When I watch him on tape, I don’t see that he lacks quickness or speed. He’s made several rundown plays from the backside. Jared got the quarterback [Brady] on the ground three times after his release. Obviously those aren’t sacks. In terms of the common relationship with his age, I don’t see that he lost speed and quickness.”

I don’t know what Jared Allen has left and I’m not disputing what Emery is seeing on tape.

But what good are pressures or hits when Brady was 30 of 35 and four of his five incompletions were drops. So he was this close to perfect with 354 yards, five touchdowns and no sacks.

Where is the upside so far from the addition of Allen?

Emery said this about why Jay Cutler still struggles with certain fundamentals.

“In the past, he was better

Saturday on The U Too.

“In the past, he was better than everybody around him, and when you’re better than everybody around you, you’re pressed to make plays. ... Jay [Cutler], like a lot of players in that position, has a little bit of a gun-slinger personality in terms of, ‘I want to be the guy making the plays.’ He trusts his arm.

Those are habits. Habits are hard to improve.”

Phil Emery Bears general manager

than everybody around him, and when you’re better than everybody around you, you’re pressed to make plays. Coming out of Vanderbilt, some of his things from a technical standpoint were concerning, in terms of coming off the back foot, protecting the football. Jay, like a lot of players in that position, has a little bit of a gun-slinger personality in terms of, ‘I want to be the guy making the plays.’ He trusts his arm. Those are habits.

Habits are hard to improve.”

Really? Then why did he just guarantee Cutler $54 million over this and the next two seasons?

Trestman said of Cutler “his leadership’s been at a premium.”

Since leadership has been

IT’S ALL ABOUT DRIVE

such a hot topic lately, I asked Trestman if he could explain what he meant by that and he responded, “Every day it starts with him and how he comes into this building.

“His work ethic is exemplary. How he practices is exemplary. We have tremendous practices here. We have very good competition here.

That starts not only with Jay but with a lot of guys in our locker room that have played a lot of football.

“It starts with Jay in that manner because he does set the tone as most quarterbacks do in terms of how a team works and his work ethic is second to none in the building.”

Those practices and compe-

tition have yielded a 3-5 football team. I didn’t ask about his work ethic. Does that explain leadership to you?

Let me be clear.

Cutler is not what’s wrong with the Bears, he is just a piece of a much bigger puzzle.

Emery and Trestman are guys it would be easy to pull for and many of you would really like to see them succeed.

But after listening to them Monday, I’m afraid I came away with a lot more questions than I did answers, or hope.
