However, some parents do not believe the statistics conveyed in the report.

“Seventy-two percent of all statistics are made up on the spot,” parent Jeff Kroll said. “I don’t know where she got that acceptance because she didn’t talk to this group.”

Kroll said he moved to the area because of the schools but now feels the Learning For All Plan is not working.

“There’s a saying that if it’s not broke, break it so we can fix it,” he said. “That’s what happened here.”

In her report, Moon said that since the original evaluation was conducted there have been “substantial” changes implemented at the district

level as well as at the classroom level. The report stated that these changes should be “acknowledged and celebrated,” but the destination has not been reached.

The report also contained considerations for continued implementation and improvement of the Learning For All Plan. Some of those recommendations state that the district needs to focus on developing high-quality curricula across all content areas and grade levels, and reduce the “extensive” use of worksheets in the classroom.

“What we’re trying to do is to make sure that each child is given the opportunity to accelerate if they’re ready,” said Superintendent Renee Schuster. “We are listening to the concerns for the children who are finding stress in math and talking with our principals

and teachers about solutions.

“That’s something we want to talk about for the adjustment for year two.”

Schuster said this is a “journey,” and the district and administration will make course adjustments on an annual basis.

“We have an amazing staff of teachers and leaders in this district,” she said. “This plan was developed collaboratively with all the people. This is not any individual person’s plan. This is something that is unique to our district, but it’s based on practices that are happening across this nation.”

School board member Gary Clarin said he visited fourth and fifth grade math classes at Monroe School last week and talked with Principal Justin Horne.

“I felt coming away, and this is my comment I’m not

pretending to be an expert at it for 1.5 hours sitting in math class and talking to Justin, but it seems to me that kids are having fun and the teachers were interacting with them, they were talking to them, they were working with them,” he said.

Clarin said he believes the plan is going to improve and that the district is going in the right direction.

Parent Dave Alex disagreed and said he is paying about $500 a month to have someone tutor his child “not to get ahead, but to fill in gaps.” He also wanted the board to address the social well-being of the students.

“When you’re in elementary school, you’re supposed to enjoy school, you’re supposed to want to go to school,” Alex said. “My kid doesn’t want to go to school. I want it fixed.”

HINSDALE – Met with frustration and concerns, the District 181 Board of Education heard from about a dozen parents Monday who spoke out against the Learning For All Plan once again.

“I have an enormous sense of urgency right now, and I urge for you, those of you on the board, specifically those of you who don’t have children, to understand why parents are so crazed out here,” parent Matthew Bousquette said.

“And those of you who do have kids in the district, I know you have to be crazed, too.”

The opposition from parents isn’t new but escalated Monday upon the release of a report from Dr. Tonya Moon, who, on Feb. 24, spent two days visiting D181 to assess the plan’s implementation.

The Learning For All Plan, originally called the Advanced Learning Plan, was implemented in February 2013. The plan gradually raises the academic rigor for all D181 students.

According to her report, the follow-up visit was not intended to be a full-scale evaluation, rather a check-in on the current status.

Based on two days of interactions, the department’s personnel “are fully vested in and committed to the rollout and implementation of the plan,” the report read. In addition, a more student-centered focus in classroom instruction was observed instead of teacher-focused, direct instructional approach.

A majority of community members believe the district provides a high-quality educa-

along with your regular Interest, dividends and perhaps a mutual fund or stock sale or two. You may also have new deductions, including medical expenses with your Medicare and Supplemental insurance paid by you.

Community Memorial Foundation celebrates local leaders

By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com HINSDALE – When speaking at seminars, “The Truth About Leadership” co-author Barry Posner often expounds some of his leadership philosophies with riddles.

Twelve frogs are sitting on a log in a pond and seven frogs decide to jump in. How many frogs remain on the log?

The answer is all 12.

“Some of you are wondering how hard could this be,” Posner said during the Community Memorial Foundation’s leadership luncheon Feb. 28 at Ruth Lake Country Club in Hinsdale.

“Because there’s a difference between deciding to do something and actually doing it.”

Leading by example was one of several leadership “truths” that Posner presented to the crowd of prominent community leaders, including Hinsdale Police Chief Brad Bloom, HCS Family Services Development Director Debbie

La Grange Memorial Hospital to Columbia HCA Corp.

The foundation’s grant making and community work are guided by its mission to improve the health of people who live and work in the western suburbs and to create healthier communities.

“If we’re going to really make a difference, if we’re going to become the healthiest region in the world, if that’s your aspiration, then it’s not going to happen over night.

It’s not going to happen just because you said it,” Posner said. “It will require a commitment, and it will require a whole bunch of people like yourselves all doing all the things that you’re doing and Bill Ackerman - backerman@shawmedia.com all making a difference.”

7 6 ‘Truths’ to being a great leader

• LEADERS Continued from page 6 celebrate leadership on every level,” he said.

Anderson explained while this was her first time serving as part of the host committee, she is excited to be a part of the burgeoning community of leaders.

“Bringing leaders together from various aspects of the community is really great, so I’m really happy to be a part of it,” she said.

To date, the foundation has awarded about $60 million to area non-profit organizations. The organization is governed by a 11-member volunteer board of directors and serves 27 communities in the western suburbs of Cook and southeastern DuPage

counties.

“We need each other and I ask you to think about one or two things to take back to your organization to help us build the healthiest region in the country,” DiDomenico said.

In addition to the six “truths” Posner presented, he also introduced one law: If you don’t believe in the messenger, you won’t believe the message.

But the luncheon, as well as the presentation, was more about reinforcement, not learning new skills.

“Everyone of us in this room makes a difference, and everyone of us in this room is providing leadership in a variety of ways,” Posner said.

“I hope if I am successful today, I’m not going to tell you anything you don’t already know.”

When Straub initially sought the Burr Ridge mayoral seat, one of his goals was to enhance the overpass at Interstate 55 and County Line Road.

Now, he views the bridge as a step towards achieving his overall goal of village success.

“I think the bridge would do more than any other single item to bring attention to our special little place,” Straub said.

Some of the overpass enhancements will include free standing monuments, decorative railings, brick formliner surfaces, decorative bridge attachments and infield landscaping.

A majority of the project’s funding will come from the Illinois Department of Transportation.

In 2009, IDOT stated the overpass at I-55 and County Line Road was in need of superstructure replacement. Paul May, director of Burr Ridge Public Works, said the village has a $1.4 million Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program which along with IDOT will help fund the project.

All local funds for the project have been assembled from nonproperty-tax sources, May said.

Steve Stricker, administrator for the village of Burr Ridge, explained County Line Road bridge is the dividing line between Cook and DuPage counties, labeling it the “gate-

Tentative project schedule Bridge reconstruction: Underway Infield grading/retaining walls: September Enhancement element construction: October All lanes open to traffic: November Landscape material installation: Spring 2015 way to our community.”

“The enhancement is really going to be nice and fitting in the community,” Stricker said.

“I think people are going to be very proud of it; I know the business people are very excited about it.”

Enhancements to the bridge were scheduled to begin at the end of January, but harsh winter weather postponed the project until March.

The project is slated to be completed in November, but final landscape material installation will continue through spring of 2015.

Two of the bridge’s four lanes will be closed during construction, according to Burr Ridge officials. But Stricker said he thinks the impact on traffic flow will be minimal.

“There will always be one lane open and during rush periods and with traffic coming off of the clover leaf it may slow down a little bit, but it shouldn’t have a major impact,” he said.

An sign in the Graue Mill area warns of potential flooding.

For residents of the Graue Mill neighborhood in Hinsdale repeatedly tormented by floodwaters, there’s hope the years-long nightmare may be coming to an end. A $2.5 million grant from FEMA will help to fund a flood prevention project that includes berms, flood gates, upgraded pumps and water management improvements. It’s been a long time coming – here’s hoping it makes a difference.

Another long-awaited project that’s finally coming to fruition is the 75th Street construction work in Darien. The $12.7 million effort will add a lane to 75th Street between Adams Street and Plainfield Road, not to mention resurfacing portions of Cass Avenue, adding turn lanes and medians and modernizing traffic signals. It might be tough driving through that area while the work is ongoing, but it sounds like the finished product will be worth the wait.

HINSDALE – Since 2011, Stephanie Palmer has served as Butler Junior High School principal. But come July, she’ll return to District 86, where she spent four years Stephanie as assistant Palmer principal for curriculum and instruction at Hinsdale Central High School.

This time around, Palmer will be leading Hinsdale South High School.

On Feb. 24, the Hinsdale Township High School District 86 Board of Education appointed the La Grange resident the next principal of Hinsdale South, effective July 1. Palmer’s selection came following an applicant pool of 30, which was then narrowed down to five before a final decision was made.

You served as assistant principal before at Hinsdale Central High School, what about District 86 made you want to return?

Palmer: “While District 86 has an excellent reputation, it really was the opportunity to work with [Superintendent] Bruce Law, Pam Bylsma [assistant superintendent for academics] and many other former colleagues for whom I have great respect as educators that drew me back.”

What specifically about Hinsdale South High School made it an attractive place to work?

Palmer: “South’s depart-

ment chairs and teachers work hard to meet the needs of their students, and to create camaraderie amongst the staff. I look forward to getting to know them and to helping to build on this positive culture.”

Have you spoken with current principal Brian Waterman about the role, or have you talked to him about being principal at Hinsdale South?

Palmer: “Brian has been very welcoming, and will continue to be a valuable resource for my principalship. He was a great principal for South, and he will be missed by students, parents and staff.”

I know you just got the job and won’t officially move into the role until July, but any initial goals you have for your first year at Hinsdale South?

Palmer: “My goal, first and foremost, is to lay the foundation of a trusting partnership with staff and parents. To move forward effectively, we must work together positively. I will spend a majority of my time getting to know students, staff and parents. I look forward to collaborating with these groups to determine next steps in ensuring that all students are learning at high levels.”

Any challenges you see facing as you move into your new role as principal?

Palmer: “As staff and parents get to know me, they will realize that I keep students’ best interest at the

HINSDALE – Shortly after the concealed carry law passed in Illinois and state began accepting online applications, 43 Hinsdale residents applied for the license.

With the concealed carry law now in effect, the number of applicants has climbed to 67 as of March 5, Hinsdale Police Chief Brad Bloom said.

On Feb. 28, Illinois State Police announced 5,000 concealed carry license applications have been approved and are ready to be printed and mailed.

Bloom said the process for a resident to receive a concealed carry permit starts with submitting an application, fingerprints, a photograph and then going through 16 hours of training by a certified instructor. Applicants must also undergo a local review process in which the police department can object to specific concealed carry permit issuance.

“We haven’t objected to any of the applications we’ve re-

ceived, [but we will not be] notified by the state police if an applicant is denied,” he said.

Although the department can find out the status of an application or if a resident is issued a concealed carry permit, Illinois State Police do not notify the Hinsdale Police Department directly if a local applicant is turned down.

State police began mailing the first batch of permits Feb. 28, but local authorities have no time table as to when the permits will arrive, according to Bloom.

“The system seems to be working and I suspect people will be getting licenses soon if

they applied around Jan. 5,” he said.

The concealed carry card is about 3-by-2 inches and is centered with an Illinois State Police security hologram. Each concealed carry license application requires the applicant to possess a valid Firearms Owner’s Identification card – or, to apply for a FOID in conjunction with the concealed carry law – in order to begin the application process.

Background checks are simultaneously conducted by state police, while local law enforcement agencies review the applications for objections.

Bloom said that not all objections stem from an applicant’s criminal history, but flags could be raised if someone has a record of erratic or harmful behavior.

“I think what we’re looking for is someone who has a tendency for violence, and somebody who may have some type of contacts with the police,” he said.

If authorities determine there is a statutory reason to deny a request, or the review board deems that an applicant poses a threat, state police must send the applicant a written “denial” statement, according to Illinois State Police.

Since the process began in January, state police have received more than 50,000 applications from Illinois residents and rejected more than 800 individuals. To date, no objection has been appealed, according to Illinois State Police.

Decals featuring a gun with a banned symbol over it have been displayed on several buildings in the village, including at the library, Memorial Hall and schools. Bloom said the warning stickers are displayed in firearm free zones, a designation handed down by the state.

New survey finds the top 10 fittest baby boomer cities

Many of these symptoms are found in people who’s thyroid doesn’t function properly.

n the past, older Americans may have accepted weight gain and reduced mobility as part of aging, but not so for baby boomers.

As part of the Fit After 50 campaign, the American Physical Therapy Association and MoveForwardPT.com named the Top 10 Fittest Baby Boomer Cities in America. Where does your city fall?

The survey “examined the top 50 metropolitan areas in the U.S. to determine which cities were best suited to helping baby boomers stay healthy and fit as they age,” said Erin Wendel, senior media relations specialist with the American Physical Therapy Association.

Criteria included life expectancy, cardiovascular health and stress levels of boomers, as well as local health care and fitness resources.

The fittest cities are: 1. San Jose, Calif.

2. Minneapolis 3. San Francisco 4. Denver 5. Boston 6. Salt Lake City 7. Washington, D.C. 8. Seattle 9. San Diego 10. Raleigh, N.C. It seems where you live really can affect your health.

“Boomers who live in the fittest baby boomer cities have access to a variety of resources that can have a distinct impact on their health, but they only make a difference if they are used,” said Wendel.

The survey found significant differences between the fittest and least fit cities -- Louisville, Ky., ranked No. 50.

“The largest differences we saw between one and 50 were the percentage of people diagnosed with hypertension (47.3 percent in San Jose and 63.4 percent in Louisville, a difference of more than 16 percent); life expectancy (82.48 years in San Jose and 77.03 years in Louisville, a difference of more than five years); and the percentage of people ages 50-65 with health insurance (91.8 percent in San Jose and 85.1 percent in Louisville, a difference of 6.7 percent),” Wendel said.

The fittest cities allow boomers the opportunity to keep moving as they age.

“Parks, gyms and mass transit options in a city offer the opportunity for baby boomers to stay in motion, which physical therapists will tell you is the best way to stay young and fit,” Wendel said.

The survey found some surprises as well.

“We were a bit surprised by some of the cities in the top 10. We thought for sure we’d see one to two cities in Florida, due to the retirement population there, but we were wrong,” Wendel said.

“When you consider baby boomers are redefining what it means to age and are typically still working and leading active, healthy lifestyles, and when you examine all of the factors that played a role in determining the list, the top 10 cities make sense.”

you know someone who has a thyroid problem.

Thyroid problems are often misdiagnosed and mis-treated...and women are affected most.

This may sound familiar. Your labs come back “Normal” and yet you still feel tired, achy, cold, depressed and mentally sluggish. You may even be on thyroid hormone replacement and still have all the symptoms of hypothyroidism. Worst of all it’s difficult to get anyone to listen to you. So now what do you do?

For the last four years, Dr. Susan Kelenyi, of Glen Ellyn, IL, has been working almost exclusively with women who suffer from thyroid symptoms yet their lab tests are normal. “My practice consists mainly of women who have no where else to go. They are tired, frustrated, don’t sleep well, and overweight”, she says “What most doctors don’t understand is that close to 90% of thyroid cases are actually autoimmune in nature. The condition is called Hashimoto’s Disease and it is often missed in diagnosis.”

Hashimoto’s is an autoimmune condition (your immune system actually destroys your thyroid gland). Medical treatment often ignores the underlying immune problem and simply replaces thyroid hormone by tracking TSH levels. According to Dr. Kelenyi, this is a shortsighted approach. “Too many people still have ongoing symptoms in spite of normal TSH levels. Why? Because the underlying immune problem is not being addressed. There is no method in the medicine today that addresses Hashimoto’s other than hormone replacement for your thyroid.

This is where Dr. Kelenyi steps in. As a chiropractor with an advanced specialty in Functional Medicine and clinical nutrition, she is able to perform specific metabolic tests to determine what areas of the body are deficient or over reacting. Many of these tests could be performed by their MD but they don’t perform them. “The problem is two-fold, says Kelenyi. “First, the insurance companies don’t typically pay for many of the tests and secondly, the medical model doesn’t support the answers we get from many of the tests.

For example, we look at women’s adrenal (stress) glands with a salivary test and supplement with powerful botanicals in order to restore function. There are currently no drugs that help the adrenals work better.”

Why is a chiropractor treating thyroid disease? Dr. Kelenyi emphasizes that she is not treating the disease. “That’s what their MD is for.” she says. “The medications can be life savers and women should not take themselves off them. It’s my job to help modulate the thyroid gland and their immune system nutritionally through a Functional Medicine approach. Functional Medicine includes a lab based approach, integrating natural therapies that include lifestyle changes, to address a wide variety of chronic health problems.

What is it that Dr. Kelenyi is doing differently than your local endocrinologist? She says that food is a big part of it.

She finds that gluten can be a detrimental food for women with thyroid disease. “We now know there are proteins in gluten that cause inflammation in people with thyroid disease. But more importantly there are many other foods that can act like gluten in causing inflammation. We test for those foods with very accurate testing and can tell you what you should or should not be eating.” Our solutions are non-drug, non surgical approaches, that are research based and based on prior clinical success.

She says it is a very rewarding way of practicing. “I am one of only 400 chiropractors in the nation addressing imbalances in this manner, so 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.”

Are you sufering with

Irritable Bowel, Celiac, Crohn’s or Colitis?

Are you afraid to leave your house due to an unpredictable bowel?

Have you tried diferent treatments but continue to sufer?

Do you know the essentials for a healthy digestive system?

Have you given up and decided to just live with it? he digestive system assimilates food (carbs, fats and proteins) to produce energy. It breaks down food into nutrient forms that your body can absorb. It uses enzymes, good bacteria and hydrochloric acid to break down food to a usable form. Your gut is a barrier, a tube that starts in your mouth, continues as your esophagus, small intestine, large intestine and rectum. 80% of your immune system is in your gut. When you break down the barrier (gut lining), toxins can “leak” into the blood stream leading to an immune response, inlammation and food allergies. Hippocrates, the father of medicine said… “look to the gut, there will you ind the origin of almost all human illness.”

Hi, my name is Dr. Jefrey E. Forzley with Lemont Natural Healthcare. I am a chiropractic physician and a holistic practitioner. I am passionate about helping people with chronic health conditions. I have been in practice for 28 years. As a holistic practitioner I evaluate the nervous system, immune system, endocrine system (hormones), diet essentials (Neuro-‐Metabolic Care), manage the underlying cause and use natural therapies to manage digestive disorders. here are many essentials required for proper digestion.

Let’s talk about a few…

Zinc is necessary to make hydrochloric acid (HCL). HCL is needed to break down food (protein) in the stomach and for production of methyl groups. Methyl groups turn on tumor suppressor genes and turn of oncogenes leading to potential cancer growth. If HCL is deicient, this results in poor digestion and a many imbalances due to a deiciency of methyl groups. HCL deiciency also leads to growth of pathological bacteria like H. Pylori, which can cause gastritis, stomach ulcers and possibly stomach cancer.

Probiotics (good bacteria) are normally found in the gut.

Optimal levels are needed for a proper functioning digestive system. hese probiotics are also part of your immune

system. hey play an important role in the protective barrier in your gut. Your gut makes up 80% of your immune system due to this barrier system. Antibiotics kill pathologic bacteria and infections but they also kill good bacteria and cause gut dysbiosis (imbalance). his dysbiosis can lead to pathologic bacterial, yeast and parasitic infections as well as food allergies.

Digestive system inlammation is associated with IBS, Crohn’s, Celiac and Ulcerative Colitis. It is due to stress, poor diet, toxins and food allergies. Digestive inlammation leads to production of cytokines (inlammatory cells). hese cytokines travel in the blood to the brain and inlame the brain cells. he brain (mesencephalon) in turn controls the digestive system. his leads to a vicious cycle resulting in an inlammatory cascade which exponentially worsens over time. Successfully managing digestive conditions involves balancing the nervous system, digestive system and immune system as well as improving the diet, decreasing gut inlammation and detoxifying the body.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a digestive disorder that includes abdominal pain, discomfort, bloating and alternating constipation and diarrhea. he cause is unknown but theories include toxic overload, intestinal infections, inlammation from stress and poor diet generalized condition of the digestive system poor signaling from the brain to the digestive system for proper function.

Medications to treat digestive disorders can weaken your immune system and lead to infections and immune degenerative conditions including cancer. hese medications may give you symptom relief but have side efects and DO NOT ADDRESS the UNDERLYING CAUSE of your condition.

Testimonial As someone who lives with chronic nausea, poor digestion and anxiety, I assumed I was out of options when countless doctors told me that there was nothing else they could do for me. hey told me it was likely all in my head. hen I visited Dr. Forzley and he told me from the initial consultation that he was very conident he could help me. I was so excited that I cried. No other doctor has ever been so much on my side. Now, 8 weeks into treatment, I am nausea free, anxiety free and my digestion is normal. I have started living a life I never thought I could live. My body is a machine, slowed and dirtied by processed foods and environmental toxins.

But with the help of Dr. Forzley, my body is on the way back to an optimal state for long term health and happiness.

Veronica M.

Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity is a digestive condition that involves gluten sensitivity like Celiac Disease but is not an autoimmune disorder. It involves digestive symptoms (pain, bloating…), fatigue, joint pains as well as neurologic symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, poor memory, brain fog and diiculty concentrating.

Celiac Disease, Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are autoimmune diseases. An autoimmune disorder is when your immune system attacks your body instead of protecting it. here is NO CURE for autoimmune disorders. But you can calm down the immune response NATURALLY and decrease the efects of the tissue destruction.

If you have an autoimmune disease like Celiac, Crohn’s or Ulcerative Colitis and you do not balance and calm down the autoimmune destruction, your immune system can attack other tissues and cause multiple autoimmune disorders. It is common for people with an autoimmune disorder to have multiple autoimmune diseases for this reason.

Medications are not always the long term answer.

Restaurant reviews

Changarro adds bright notes to Mexican fusion WEST CHICAGO – Celebrating Mexican dishes on its own food pyramid with unexpected fusion twists is Changarro Cocina, a hidden gem in West Chicago well worth seeking out.

Like its stylized Aztec bird logo, it has a semi-hidden perch along Route 59 on the overpass above Roosevelt Road, tucked on the west side of a modern commercial building.

Inside the minimalist modern space is a tequila bar at the ready for Margaritas, Spanish wines and imported beer. Cocktails regularly are reinvented, and the menu shakes itself up with new specials like the recent duck confit tacos, pairing the French recipe with a Brazilian corn salsa.

But friends had recommended the grilled tilapia and guacamole tacos topped with threads of lime-infused red cabbage for a burst of bright flavor. It was delicious, and I’m just hoping the duck will be back on the menu soon for another visit.

A Chicago TV spot recently focused on Changarro’s chicken enchilada soup, and I second the recommendation.

I split a cup with my dining companion, discovering it to be a richly complex concoction of chicken, garlic, onions, sizzled corn, cheese and lusciously giant slices of ripe avocado in chicken stock flavored with enchilada sauce.

It’s just mildly spicy, which suited me to a tee on a snowy night.

The casual dining room feels airy with a high, industrial style ceiling, and warm color palette, with one wall accented with a straight line of luchador wrestling masks.

In the evening, the tables are linen covered. Our server was friendly, efficient and knowledgeable about which dishes are vegetarian. The menu also pinpoints gluten-free items.

Launching the meal were complimentary chips and two wonderful salsas, including a creamy salsa verde with great

Third-quarter stretch dooms Red Devils in sectional game vs. Benet

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com AURORA – Chase Hamilton has played in enough basketball games to know about one big key to victory.

Unfortunately for the Hinsdale Central senior and his teammates, Benet was the team that held that key in Tuesday’s Class 4A sectional semifinal game at East Aurora.

The Redwings won the third quarter and dealt the Red Devils a 61-50 defeat.

“They came out and outplayed us the first three minutes of the second half,” Hamilton said, “and as everyone knows, aside from the last three minutes, those are the most important three minutes in the game.”

Central (23-7) found itself in a 9-3 hole early in the game, but battled back to forge a 27-27 halftime tie.

Jordan Bradshaw’s 3-pointer put the Red Devils ahead 11-9 late in the first quarter.

Grant Lillard drained a trey that knotted the score at 1616 early in the second before Bradshaw’s spinning floater gave Central a 20-19 lead with five minutes left in the first half. Hamilton’s 3-pointer with 1:28 to go before the half again tied the score.

But after intermission, Benet blitzed Central with an 11-3 run to take control of the game.

Collin Pellettieri hit a trio of 3-pointers early in the third, then drained another at the start of the fourth quarter to put the Redwings ahead 45-33.

Pellettieri scored 16 of his 22 points after halftime. Benet’s Sean O’Mara led all scorers with 27 points.

Sectional semifinal BENET 61 HINSDALE CENTRAL 50 HINSDALE CENTRAL’S 5 LEADERS • Chase Hamilton: 12 points, five rebounds, three assists • Jordan Bradshaw: Nine points, five rebounds, two assists • Thomas Ives: Nine points, two rebounds, two assists • Matt Rafferty: Eight points, four rebounds • Grant Lillard: Four points, two assists

“They came out and outplayed us the first three minutes of the second half.”

Chase Hamilton Hinsdale Central senior “They hit two quick threes and then we struggled to score,” Central head coach Nick Latorre said.

Hamilton’s bucket with 5:05 left drew Central to within 4738, but the Red Devils then went scoreless for nearly three minutes as the deficit swelled to 54-38. Thomas Ives hit a pair of three-pointers with under two minutes to play to provide some excitement, but it was too little, too late for the Red Devils.

“We hit some shots early in the game, and in the second half those same shots weren’t falling,” Latorre said. “I think they’re very difficult to play Mark Busch - mbusch@shawmedia.com against. They guarded us and we struggled to get clear looks Hinsdale Central’s Jordan Bradshaw shoots over Benet’s Collin Pellettieri during Tuesday’s sectional semifinal game against Benet.

Hinsdale South’s Larry Motuzis fights through a pair of Hinsdale Central defenders during a regional playoff game at Naperville Central on March 4. Motuzis was part of a senior group that led the way for the Hornets this season.

Senior class guides Hinsdale South

By JASON ROSSI

Senior roll call

jrossi@shawmedia.com DARIEN – Adjusting to a new head coach can be difficult, but Barret Benson and his Hinsdale South basketball teammates proved the opposite is also true.

Brett Moore came on board this winter to guide South, and despite having to take time to get to know their new coach and his new system, the Hornets still put together a solid season.

“Great season with a new system and new coach, and I can’t wait until next year,” Benson said.

Benson, a sophomore 6-foot-9 center, was a nice piece to build around, but Moore said this team’s success was due to the efforts a seven-player senior class.

“From Day 1 of getting here, this senior group has been great about wanting to work hard. They’re a great group of kids,” Moore said. “It’s an honor to work with them my first year here and they’re a real good model of what we want to do in the future.”

South, which finished the season with a 16-13 record, started off the season on the

• Orlando Brown • Rashad Gatlin • Stefan Kaplarevic • Peter Kokinis • Larry Motuzis • Marcel Phillips • Tyler Zampa right foot with a 65-63 overtime victory against district rival Hinsdale Central. The good times continued when the Hornets claimed the title at DeKalb’s Chuck Dayton invite over the holidays.

A tough schedule in the second half of the season saw South lose to Proviso East and Morton (teams that won regional titles this season) two times each as well as Quincy in a tough road environment. Yet the Hornets rebounded to defeat Downers Grove North 51-41 in a regional playoff game March 3.

A rematch with Central in a regional semifinal went against the Hornets, but they gave the Red Devils all they could handle before falling 63-47.

Despite the ending, the Hornets still had one of their

better seasons in recent history. Again, Moore gave credit to his senior class for setting the tone.

“I think there’s some dedication to the small things,” Moore said. “When we first got here, we used to give Larry Motuzis such a hard time about his defense. We’d joke with him and get on him about it, and at first I think he was like, I’m not playing defense. Then he saw how good he could be when he did, and he’s our best defender now.”

Motuzis, point guard Marcel Phillips, Stefan Kaplarevic and forward Tyler Zampa were seniors that started the regional game against Central, and Orlando Brown was a key reserve all season.

Benson and freshman Iman Reynolds, who was a late-season call-up, should provide a solid nucleus next season, but the loss of the senior group will take some getting used to.

“I wanted to take basketball to a level that it maybe hadn’t been at for a year or two at Hinsdale South, and I thought this group of seniors was great to start with in that regard,” Moore said.

The boys basketball teams from both Fenwick and St. Joseph won regional titles and met for the third time this season in a sectional semifinal game at Westinghouse on Wednesday.

In the third meeting between the two teams this season, the Friars cruised to a 73-54 win against the Chargers.

Scott Lindsey and Dan Dwyer both scored 18 points to help Fenwick move on to face Orr in tonight’s sectional championship game. Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. A 9-0 run in the third quarter made it a 44-28 game and created some separation for Fenwick (22-8).

In addition to his point total, Dwyer added eight rebounds.

Thomas Planek finished with 13 points and seven boards for the Friars.

Glynn Watson led all scorers with 21 points and teammate Jordan Ash added 14 for the Chargers (25-8), who also lost to Fenwick in the third place game of the Chicago Catholic League tournament in February.

In the regional final, the Friars got past Farragut, winning 69-56 on March 7. Fenwick got 17 points from Dwyer, 15 from Planek and 12 from Lindsey.

Fenwick started the game on a 13-4 run, led 38-28 at the half, and expanded the lead to 55-40 entering the fourth quarter.

St. Joe’s struggled with Timothy Christian in its regional championship game March 7.

The Chargers built a double-digit lead early before the Trojans stormed back behind senior standout Connor VanderBrug, who scored 27 points and helped Timothy take a 39-32 lead in the third quarter. Eventually the Chargers turned the game back around and pulled away for a 51-42 victory.

Sophomore Nick Rakocevic, who recently received a scholarship offer from Wisconsin, led the Chargers with 16 points.

Watson scored 14 points and Ash added 12. Watson’s jumper late in the third quarter put the Chargers ahead 41-40 going into the fourth, and the Trojans were held scoreless for the first seven minutes of the final frame.

Locals in D-III hoops postseason SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA Three schools from the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin advanced to the NCAA Division III Men’s Basketball Championship tournament, which began last week.

Illinois Wesleyan was the regular season league champion and features local players Ryan Coyle (Lisle, St. Francis), Rob Mahlke (Downers Grove North) and Danny Roadman (Wheaton Warrenville South).

The Titans beat Webster 71-70 in the opening round and then defeated St. Norbert 84-68 Saturday. Up next is Calvin in the third round Friday.

Coyle has appeared in eight games, scoring 24 points. Mahlke saw action in two regular season games, tallying six points.

Wheaton College, which captured the CCIW tournament championship, also won its first two tournament games, defeating Rose-Hulman 64-57 and Penn State Behrend 68-40. The Thunder play Dickinson on Friday. Augustana qualified for the

tourney after going 19-7 during the regular season, but fell 87-68 to Wisconsin-Whitewater Saturday. The Vikings opened the postseason with an 88-77 win against St. Thomas.

Dan Jurgutis (Darien, Downers Grove South) is a junior at Augustana who averaged 8.9 points per game despite missing six contests with a football injury. The guard totaled 16 points off the bench against Wisconsin-Whitewater and had 13 against St. Thomas.

Junior Alex Dziagwa (Riverside-Brookfield) was also a member of Augustana’s team who saw action in 12 games and scored six points. On the women’s side, Carthage was the lone representative of the CCIW in the NCAA Division III Women’s Basketball Championship. The squad notched playoff wins over St. Norbert (60-51) and Hope (7267) last week and will play defending national champion DePauw on Friday.

Outlook: The Red Devils do lose several seniors who helped lead them to the state championship game last year, yet they are still wellequipped for another successful playoff run.

Alison Cerny (11 goals, 10 assists) and Meghan Schick (nine goals, seven assists) return to the midfield, where they provide scoring punch and solid defense. The defense sees Lily Chetosky (four-year varsity), Christa Kuhlman (three-year varsity) and Erin Smith (three-year varsity starter) return in front of a pair of seasoned goal keepers.

“What this group provides is a nice balance, and at the same time a lot of them were part of that experience we shared last year,” head coach Michael Smith said.

Riley Glenn is a four-year varsity keeper who tallied 14 shutouts last season. Sophomore Katy Coseglia spelled Glenn last season and the duo will share time in net this season. With so much returning talent, the primary goal this season is clear.

“The girls are passionate about going back to the state finals, “Smith said. “Last year at this time, there were whispers about it and now were are openly discussing it.

They know there are goals to

that they are a quality team with quality players.”

Casey May, last year’s leading scorer with 16 goals, has departed, but Smith believes Cerny, Schick and sophomore Emily LaRocque can maintain the scoring punch this spring. Smith lauded his team’s depth, saying that all 20 field players are capable of starting at any given time. That kind of manpower should come in handy against a tough schedule that will see every opponent giving 100 percent against the Red Devils, whose success last season will be a measuring stick for many programs.

a senior class that included defenders Brenda Maugeri and Colleen McPherson, experienced goal keeper Vanessa Niestrom, midfielders Kerry Just and Jessica Mutters, and forward Julie Vezzani.

But South also has enough returning talent to contend the West Suburban Gold conference title and to defend the regional title it won last spring.

“We have lots of senior leadership,” head coach Pat Wolf said. “All the seniors have two or three years varsity experience, and many of younger players had varsity time last year, as well.”

Juniors Kelly Flemm and Sarah Leganski were mainstays on varsity last spring and join a large senior group that gets a boost from Sarah Warren joining the squad. Replacing Niestrom in net will be a challenge, but returning defenders Elisabetta Bifero and Mary Claire Ladd should help make life easier for the new net minder.

The Hornets hope to challenge Downers Grove South for the WSG title. Last

postseason rolls around they should be battle tested as the schedule includes Montini (a regional champ last year), Lincoln-Way Central, Hinsdale Central, York, Downers Grove North and Lemont.

Outlook: In Abby Anderson’s first year as coach last spring, the Mustangs won conference, posted a winning record and played in the regional championship game. More of the same is expected this season.

“We look to leave off from last year’s goals that we accomplished,” Anderson said.

Last year’s leading scorer, Nicole Janowiak, has graduated, but Anderson said one of South’s biggest strengths

this year will be speed at the top of the attack. Autumn Rasmussen (10 goals, three assists), Stephanie Zurales (eight goals, six assists) and Emily Wauer (five goals, four assists) all showed the ability to find the back of the net last season.

Jamie Furio played the majority of time in the net last season and returns there. Lori Niehaus and versatile playmaker Ava Porlier are also back to bolster the defense.

Senior leadership is another strength that Anderson has already identified.

“We have a strong senior class with a lot of great leaders,” Anderson said. “We should have a pretty solid team dynamic, but we are definitely a different team than last year.

“A lot of girls have stepped into roles during the summer and off season – in the weight room, in off-season workouts, and playing outside of school.

There are a lot of younger players who will compete for varsity spots and starting spots.”

No more snow on Central’s field SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA HINSDALE – Hinsdale Central’s baseball team had plans to meet as a team after practice Saturday and clear the snow off its field.

Then it snowed overnight Friday and into Saturday morning, and the endeavor was canceled.

But Bart Butler, Mike Jurack, Gregg Peters and Len Senicka took it upon themselves to get the job done.

The quartet made a last-minute decision Sunday to get the snow off the field.

They went to the school and got to work, giving Mother Nature a bit of a boost in coaxing spring along. By the end of the day, the snow was removed and sunshine hit the grass for the first time in months.

HINSDALE – Sen. Kirk Dillard supporters grew more and more optimistic Tuesday evening as gubernatorial poll numbers creeped closer by the hour.

loyal, and hard working and great band of supporters,” Dillard said, after he conceded the race.

Dillard said it was a “very close election,” and thanked everyone who voted and showed support for the campaign. He added that it’s been an “unbelievable” eight months spent criss-crossing Illinois and meeting supporters.

“We’ve been telling the

same old story, the state of Illinois is broken and it isn’t working,” Dillard said.

The polls ended closer than several experts predicted heading into election night, as Rauner collected 40 percent to Dillard’s 37 percent. State Sen. Bill Brady and Treasurer Dan Rutherford conceded

Nybo wins state Senate D-24 primary on 2nd try

By MARI GRIGALIUNAS mgrigaliunas@shawmedia.com ELMHURST – In his second run for the state Senate’s 24th District seat, Chris Nybo of Elmhurst is one step closer to victory after winning the Republican primary.

“I’ve been on both sides of a race like this,” Nybo said.

“Sometimes we’ve won, sometimes we’ve lost.”

With about 58 percent of the vote in DuPage County and more than 15,500 votes total, according to preliminary results, Nybo, 36, won against another Elmhurst resident, Dennis Reboletti, who serves as state representatives for Illinois’ 45th District.

“Dennis and I are friends and nothing about this changes that,” Nybo said.

Nybo lost to Dillard in a 2012 primary election for the state’s 24th District seat. While

“We remained optimistic until the very end of our campaign,” Nybo said.

When Nybo announced his intent to run in November, he cited Illinois’ pension crisis as

his No. 1 priority. While in office, Nybo was the first Republican to sponsor the pension law passed last year.

“We need to get our economy back on top,” Nybo said.

Nybo has said job creation and economic development are the biggest challenges facing Springfield. Tuesday night he said “without a doubt creat-

ing jobs,” would be his biggest priority moving forward.

While 41st District state representative, Nybo worked successfully to pass laws banning Blagojevich-style billboards paid for by taxpayers and expanding the availability of food allergy medicine in schools. “[Reboletti has] had a very distinguished career,” said Nybo of his opponent.

Reboletti, 45, of Elmhurst has been a state representative since 2007 and boasted his experience as an assistant minority leader and floor leader for Illinois House Republicans during his campaign. He also championed his efforts as a former prosecutor to fight the presence of heroin in DuPage County.

“His voice will be missed in the General Assembly,” Nybo said.

Reboletti also named his

negotiating role in passing Illinois’ concealed carry law and successful efforts to pass Andrea’s Law which tracks murderers released from corrections as two of his biggest accomplishments as 45th District representative.

Reducing the tax burden and for families and turning Illinois into a destination economy were priorities Reboletti named for Springfield.

Reboletti could not be reached for comment Tuesday evening.

Nybo will run against Democratic candidate Suzy Glowiak of Western Springs in November for Illinois’ 24th District Senate seat.

While Glowiak lives in Western Springs, Nybo believes he has plenty of supporters there.

“The western suburbs need a strong moderate voice,” Nybo said.

Parishioners return, share stories from Philippines

By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com CLARENDON HILLS – When members of the Church of the Holy Nativity returned stateside, the questions they answered were not, “what did you do,” but, “what did you leave behind?”

For 10 days in February, a group of parishioners from the Clarendon Hills church voyaged on a medical mission trip to an area of the Philippines once devastated by Typhoon Haiyan.

With help of the church, the group administered vaccines, conducted checkups and distributed supplies, raising more than $20,000.

On March 9, a few of the parishioners gathered at the Church of the Holy Nativity to share their experiences.

Seeing the need first hand On the second clinical day,

Jeff Dillon of Lisle and the parishioners drove off the main dirt road to a town in the country. Not only did Dillon have to navigate through the hordes of people, but he had to do so in a downpour.

In the early afternoon, there were talks that if the rain kept up it would turn the roads to mud, making it impossible to get out. A woman then approached him on his break.

“She said, ‘Sir, please don’t say no more for today,’” Dillon said.

Eventually, the rain stopped and work continued, but her words struck a chord with Dillon. He said he had seen poverty on television and on the Internet, but being immersed it, that was an entirely different, moving feeling.

Heidi Hartmann-Loffredo of Elmhurst shared a similar story at the three clinics. She called that day a humbling, inspiring experience, explaining that she will never forget watching doctors work “tire-

lessly” to assist the seemingly endless crowd of Filipino people.

“I kept telling them that if we just go another half hour we’ll get everybody done,” she said. “They were all so tired but they said, ‘nope, we’re going to power through this and we’re going to get through everybody.’”

Family stories During one of the clinic days spent in a church in the province of Iloilo, Rich Birch of Woodridge was assigned logistical duties. The church had about 30 rows of pews, filled about 200 people waiting for assistance.

Concern mounted and frenetic disorganization followed as the group began to realize the time it would take to see each individual.

Birch knew he needed to somehow lighten the mood.

Armed with his camera phone, Birch began sharing

CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT 11

State Rep. Darlene Senger will face U.S. Rep. Bill Foster in November in the race for the 11th Congressional District seat.

Senger, R-Naperville, on Tuesday won against Hinsdale resident Bert Miller, conservative talk show host Ian Bayne of Aurora and Grundy County Board member Chris Balkema, according to unofficial election results. Lisle resident Craig Robbins had dropped out of the race.

Senger attributed her win to grassroots campaigning.

“We had a good strategy,” Senger said. “We looked at what we could accomplish. I’m a proven legislator.”

The 11th District includes North Aurora, Aurora, Naperville, Lisle and Joliet. U.S. Rep. Bill Foster, D-Naperville, has held the seat since November 2012 after defeating former U.S. Rep. Judy Biggert.

Senger has been a state representative since 2009. Before that, she was on the Naperville City Council from 2002 to 2008.

“As [a] state legislator, I’ve taken on the toughest issues,” she said during her campaign.

“You have to work with people, but you also have to incorporate your principles into the solution. And I’ve been able to do that.”

Regarding the state of public education, Senger said that individual states and not the federal government should take the lead in implementing standards.

“No Child Left Behind failed,” Senger said. “Each state and each district in the state is different. Every household is different, and every child is different. That’s why you have to customize it uniquely to each working area.”

In a statement, Foster said he congratulated Senger on her victory and that he looked forward to a “thoughtful and honest debate on the issues.”

Act on Bullying founder discusses cyberbullying

By DANNY CIAMPRONE

Know more

dciamprone@shawmedia.com CLARENDON HILLS – Jeff Bean is on almost every social media site, but not only does he assume a false name, he also poses as a completely different, much younger person.

“I have Facebook as a kid – a made-up person,” said Bean, a police officer with the Woodridge Police Department and president/CEO of Act on Bullying. “I have Twitter, I have Instagram, I have Kik, I’m on ask.fm s ... I’m on all these sites and as soon as I find out the kids are going there that’s where I go.”

As Bean explained it during a Parent Teacher Organization meeting at Clarendon Hills Middle School on March 12, he does it in the name of safety.

With 14 years of law enforcement experience, Bean has spent a majority of his time working with juveniles and has been a D.A.R.E. offi-

For more information on Act on Bullying, visit facebook.com/ ActOnBullying or actonbullying. com/index.html. cer in Woodridge for the past five years.

Since then, he has been monitoring the behavior of kids with social media sites to the point where he has more than 300 Facebook friends for his fake profile.

“Of all the say, 350 friends I have on Facebook, less than 10 have asked me who I was when I Facebook friend them,” he said. “They truly do not care about safety, they care about popularity.

“They want to have the most friends, the most followers.”

As the social media craze continues, so too does what Bean refers to as a “worldwide epidemic,” – bullying and cyberbullying. At the

start of the meeting, a projector displayed some of the most popular social media outlets today: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, Kik, ask. fm, XBox Live, PS3, Yik Yak and Vine.

“Everything you see, if there’s something up there you’re not familiar with, you’re behind the times, because your kids are,” he said.

“I’m talking as young as fourth grade.”

Bean said kids are being harmed emotionally and physically, sometimes even leading to suicide because of the impact of bullying and cyberbullying. This is not the same kind of bullying neither parents nor Bean grew up with.

“The kids are thriving with the anonymity,” he said, when it comes to sites such as Kik and Yik Yak. “They’re torturing each other because there’s no way for the kids to know who’s sending it.”

That’s one of the reasons why Bean started the compa-

benefits to social media, such as staying connected with friends and family and sharing information quickly on a large scale. But his advice for parents is to make sure your child is ready for social media sites, know passwords and know what the app is before they download it.

He said parents also can use sites such as commonsensemedia.org to receive information on social networking. While it may be more difficult, Bean suggested getting kids phones with basic functions and not smartphones.

It’s important to not spy on your kids as well, Bean said, as you will “win the battle but lose the war” because further down the road kids won’t trust you. Instead, spend time with your kids and get involved in what they like.

“You need to show an interest in the things that interest them,” he said. “They want you to spend time with them.”

ny Act on Bullying in 2012, which takes a proactive approach to addressing the problems of bullying and cyberbullying in the workplace and in schools.

In 2010, Bean conducted a survey of fifth- and sixth-graders and found 55 percent were using social media sites, while 32 percent were victims of bullying. In 2012, that number jumped to 77 percent using social media with 24 percent being victims of bullying.

The data that startled Bean was in 2010, 75 percent of the students surveyed said they wouldn’t report cyberbullying because they’re afraid parents would take away the device or block them from the website.

To Bean’s relief, that number has now dropped to 30 percent in 2012. He believes that’s because of the increase in education.

“The kids in fifth and sixth grade now know they need to tell an adult,” he said.

Some Dog Owners Don’t Believe This…..BUT It’s True.

Too Good to be true or is it?

Hi my name is John O’Driscoll and I couldn’t believe it when a new dog customer of mine told me what her girlfriends were doing. Before I get into that let me ask you a question…

Have you seen our free 1st grooming ad? Well if you’re like a recent customer of ours you might be thinking that it’s not for real or there’s a catch, or there might be some sneaky upsell when you come in. (It’s Real) But first let me say I get it…I get it…. in life there always seems to be a catch.

And I know when it seems like something is too good to be true, it usually is…..except this time I want you to know this is a genuine offer from a genuine grooming shop.

So why am I doing this? Frankly we want your business. I think we give such a great service that I’m willing to put my money were my mouth is and pay my groomer to groom your dog.

At the risk of sounding too confident I think we have one of the best groomers in DuPage County.

All you have to do is call us today. Call 630‑969‑3145.

Just ask us for the free grooming offer you saw in the paper and we’ll take care of the rest.

Obviously I can’t do an unlimited number of these.

There are only a couple of spots per day available so if you have a need for a really great grooming so you can have the best looking dog in the neighborhood, call us today. 630‑969‑3145 So back to my customers girlfriends….after she got her free grooming with us she told her girlfriends that we were the real deal…so a bunch of her girlfriends went looking through their recyclables looking for the paper with our ad.

So instead of getting caught in this situation why not just give us a call and get your appointment today.

D-86 sets June 6 as last day for student attendance

By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com HINSDALE – Spring may be on the horizon, but Hinsdale is still feeling the wrath left behind from one of the coldest winters on record experienced in the area, which led to ’round-the-clock public services and several school closings.

Recently, Hinsdale High School District 86 has been working to make up for the lost instructional time – four days total – and Monday the board unanimously designated June 6 to be the final day of student attendance before summer break.

The vote comes after the March 3 Committee of the Whole meeting where the board discussed options to make up the missed days. Initially, District 86 Superintendent Bruce Law recommended an option that tacked on instructional days to the end

“If the concern was academic excellence, then we should be looking at utilizing days for early release, late start and nonattendance days.”

Jennifer Planson School board member

of the school year, extending the academic calendar to June 12.

But parents, students and community members spoke out against Law’s recommendation, claiming many students and their families have already scheduled vacation plans, coordinated summer jobs and enrolled in camps.

“The community has spoken very loudly on this particular issue,” school board member Jennifer Planson said.

Hinsdale Central junior Melissa Vranicar was one of the students who voiced her opinion Monday, presenting the board with a petition started in the aftermath of the Com-

mittee of the Whole meeting.

The petition – which asks the administration not to extend the school year to June 12 – had more than 1,300 signatures as of Monday.

“These parents and students are all in agreement that [June 12] is not the best option,” Vranicar said.

Vranicar said she made a prior commitment to Hinsdale Central youth group Young Life and has been training for the opportunity all year.

“Nothing emerged as an ideal solution to this problem,” Law said, explaining that he considered several options with the teacher’s asso-

ciation and District 86 administration.

The state mandates that students be in school a minimum of 176 days, and requires the district build five emergency days into the schedule. Historically, District 86 has maintained a calendar that requires a minimum of 181 days.

Given the calendar and how far into the school year the district is, Law conceded that while there was no perfect solution, he wanted to maintain the district’s reputation of a rigorous academic calendar.

Planson felt there could be a compromise reached between the district and admin-

GET THE

istration to make up lost time.

“If the concern was academic excellence, then we should be looking at utilizing days for early release, late start and nonattendance days,” Planson said.

School board member Kay Gallo suggested adding 35 minutes each day to instructional periods, but Law said that is impossible because of after school activities. Minutes could be added to the beginning of the school day, but classes would have to begin at 7:25 a.m., he said.

“The reason they can’t add minutes onto the end of the day is because they have a lot of transportation for athletic teams,” Law said. “so they said you can start school as early as you want, but you cannot add minutes to the end.”

District 86 administration and staff will continue to brainstorm ways to make up the four days of instruction time, according to Law.

OAK BROOK – An author, television pitch-man and former Oak Brook resident was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison Monday for violating a 2004 federal court order that prohibited him from making deceptive television infomercials that misrepresented the contents of his weight loss cure book.

Kevin Trudeau, 51, was convicted by a jury last November after a week-long trial in U.S. District Court, according to a news release from the Northern Illinois District Attorney’s Office.

Trudeau, who has been in custody since he was convicted, was also placed on supervised release for five years following his sentence by U.S. District Judge Ronald Guzman.

Criminal contempt has no statutory maximum sentence.

The judge found that Trudeau faced an advisory federal sentencing guidelines range of 235 to 293 months in prison and said that such a sentence would be reasonable, but cited prosecutors’ request for a sentence of at least 10 years in imposing the sentence, according to the release.

According to the release, Trudeau appeared in three television infomercials between December 2006 and July 2007 in which he willfully misrepresented the contents of his book, “The Weight Loss Cure ‘They’ Don’t Want You to Know About.”

Prosecutors cited “a litany of blatant lies and misrepresentations” made by Trudeau in his infomercials, read the release.

The town that used to be called Utopia As I have mentioned in previous columns, one of my hobbies is the study of the history and development of municipalities which lie within the boundaries of York Township.

In past columns I have written about Elmhurst, Lombard and Villa Park. In this column I will tell you about the City of Oakbrook Terrace, based on what I have learned from various sources, including the Oakbrook Terrace Historical Society and the City of Oakbrook Terrace website.

Oakbrook Terrace is a residential and commercial city located about 17 miles west of Chicago’s Loop. The current COMMUNITY mayor is Tony Ragucci.

VOICE When the Native AmerJohn W. icans who inhabited the Valle area were forced to move westward in the early 1830s, white settlers, mainly of English and later German extraction, established homesteads in the Salt Creek area. A combination creamery and cheese factory was built by Albert Knapp at what was called “the Corners” in 1873. The community that grew up around “the Corners” – now Butterfield and Midwest Roads – came to be called Utopia in 1881. The area remained agricultural well into the 20th century. Suburban growth began soon after World War II, when the community was subdivided.

Commercial development was started along two major eastwest thoroughfares, Roosevelt Road and 22nd Street.

In 1958, the area that was also known as Elmhurst Countryside, and numbered 1,228 residents, voted to incorporate as Utopia by a vote of 331 for to 164 against. In 1958, Utopia included in its acreage the proposed site of a large shopping center, but the neighboring village of Oak Brook annexed the center and its commercial properties with state approval in 1959. That year, a disappointed Utopia changed its name to Oakbrook Terrace, indicating its proximity to the soon-to-be Oak Brook Shopping Center.

In the 1980s, the community rapidly developed its commercial areas, including construction of DuPage County’s tallest office building, the 31-story Oakbrook Terrace Tower near Routes 38 and 83. Also during that decade, Drury Lane Theatre, a popular dinner playhouse, was built. Lincoln Centre, a large office complex, was constructed along Butterfield Road in the 1990s. By 2000, when population reached 2,300, most of the city’s available land had been developed for either residential or commercial purposes.

It has been my privilege to have lived in Oakbrook Terrace for more than 34 years and I am honored to have been elected to serve three terms as an Alderman on the Oakbrook Terrace City Council from 1989 to 2001.

John W. Valle is supervisor of York Township.

Crews load broken up concrete into a truck March 11 on the County Line Road bridge over Interstate 55 in Burr Ridge. The work is part of a beautification project that includes free standing monuments, decorative railings, brick formilner surfaces, decorative bridge attachments and infield landscaping.

Road work stinks. But the end result of the Bridge to Burr Ridge project is promised to be a huge improvement. “This is a great way of putting Burr Ridge on the map,” Mayor Mickey Straub said. So if you’re stuck behind a dump truck gritting your teeth, remember – it’s all in the service of making Burr Ridge better.

Congratulations to Stephanie Palmer, who was recently named the next principal at Hinsdale South High School. Most recently the principal at Butler Junior High in Oak Brook, Palmer is familiar with the Hinsdale area through her previous stint as an assistant principal at Hinsdale Central. It’s good to see a longtime education administrator stay in the area when pursuing job opportunities.

DuPage teachers overcompensated In response to the comments about teachers pay, I think some facts need to be made clear. In 2012, the average teacher salary in suburban Illinois was $71,093.

In Glenbard District 87, the district’s estimated 600 teachers made an average salary of $95,058. Salary is only one part of overall compensation. Let’s not forget about generous vacation time, guaranteed pensions and retiree health plans. Most teachers work only 38 weeks a year, about one-fifth less than a full-time employee in the private sector. A full-career teacher can receive guaranteed pension benefits four times those of a private-sector worker with a 401(k) plan. Most teachers also receive retiree health benefits worth hundreds of thousands of dollars over the course of retirement. Total fringe benefits for teachers are equal to 101 percent of their salaries versus just 44 percent for workers in large private firms. In addition, most teachers attain tenure after only four years, making it difficult for them to be fired. Talk about job security! I think the myth that teachers are undercompensated needs to end, along with the government’s monopoly on education.

Don’t need complex I’ve lived in Lemont all my life, more than 70 years, and I’m concerned about spending $41 million on a sports complex when we don’t have the money.

At my age, what would I get out of the complex? Nothing. And most likely, I would have my taxes increased. I also watched the village meeting March 10 and couldn’t believe our mayor wouldn’t even answer questions about the complex. We don’t need the complex, but it sounds like we need someone that can answer questions.

Although I’ve written to politicians on both sides – Democrats and Republicans – none have answered the simple question as to why the government has not repaid the social security back from the past and up to now. There would be more money than is ever needed if it had been left alone to build up. Do people have any idea as to how many people never received a check before dying?

These crooks that took the money without a referendum from the public by vote should be in jail. Who by name are the politicians that signed the bills to remove money from Social Security without a vote? They keep taking more out and the elderly don’t have a voice, nor the people who pay into the system, which isn’t right either. When it all started it was voluntary to have your money taken from your salary, now it’s mandatory.

When was the public notified of that little fact? When hired, they left it up to the employers [to do it] in the paperwork before you started working. It’s an easy way out for the politicians in government. You cannot opt out either and add it to your own retirement fund. By the way, the Social Security Fund was never designed to be an “entitlement” for the greedy government to paw their way into it and never have to pay it back to the people. This has been an abuse of government power for many years that is still going on. Government should be entitled to live by the same rules enforced on us and should not serve more than four years in office nor receive life salaries. That should be an abundance of savings if they lived by the way we live.

HINSDALE – With an entire K9 unit’s vests in disrepair, Hinsdale Humane Society reached out to the community and raised nearly $3,000 to purchase new bulletproof vests for the dogs.

On March 14, an officer with the Chicago Police Department visited the Hinsdale Humane Society with his K9, Clancy, to thank the staff and community for providing his dog and others with new bulletproof vests to protect them in the line of duty.

Officers are expected to purchase protective vests, and so too are their four-legged partners.

The 21 K9’s of Unit 341 were wearing seven-year-old vests that were in poor condition and no longer effective protection, according to a news release from the humane society.

The society reached out to the community and was able to raise nearly $3,000 to purchase three and half of the vests that cost $850 a piece.

After Clarendon Hills burglary, be aware of solicitors, police say SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA CLARENDON HILLS – In light of a recent burglary that resulted in thousands of dollars in lost possessions, the Clarendon Hills Police Department is asking residents to report any suspicious, unsolicited persons who may ringing door bells in the village.

The residential burglary occurred between 9:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. March 4 in the 100 block of Prospect Street.

Police said forced entry was made to the home and about $20,000 worth of jewelry was taken. No one was home during the time of the burglary, according to police.

Burglars often target unoccupied homes and ring door

bells to check if people are present. If people are present, they will likely pretend to be selling a service or provide another excuse, police said.

Solicitors are required to have a permit issued by the village, according to a news release from the village of Clarendon Hills.

Residents are reminded to inform the police department of extended absences from a home by submitting the unoccupied residence form located on the village website, www. clarendonhills.us.

Home owners are also advised to avoid the “tell-tale signs” of being out of town, such as piled up newspapers, or an unplowed driveway or sidewalk, according to the release.

Restaurant reviews

Kick up your appetite at Al’s Char-House LA GRANGE – They say everything’s bigger in Texas, and if that’s the case, then Al’s Char-House not only embodies the stereotype, but celebrates it with platters built for a state-size appetite and portions larger than my forearm.

Even on a freezing winter’s night, downtown La Grange is its same old self with bustling foot traffic, valet services working nonstop and restaurants keeping up with the demand.

Through a set of double doors next to Casa Margarita and down a stairwell, there exists a place in La Grange that could only be described as John Wayne’s subconscious fantasy.

Texas and cowboy memorabilia line every wall from the full-service bar area with fire pit to the multiple levels of a packed and hungry house.

Walking past the terrific Western-themed decor, including cowboy statues, saddles, badges and photographs, it was hard not to notice the king-size platters being brought to tables. I could hear guests saying to each other with a smile how they’ll have leftovers until [insert days in advance here].

As a result, I refrained from ordering an appetizer, but seeing the onion blossom specialty arrive at several tables close by tempted me in ways you could only imagine.

Instead, I resisted and opted for the main course.

The menu’s array of different strips of steak and ribs looked mouthwatering, but being a connoisseur of cheeseburgers, I had to go with the Charburger Plus, described by Al’s as its “super burger,” topped with lettuce, tomato, pickles and onion.

Again, I have to be honest.

Right before going to Al’s, I went to see the new “Hunger Games” movie at the La Grange Theatre, so now eyeing a burger that took up most of my plate made me feel a little guilty. That was before I took the first bite.

finding the strength to carry

The Charburger Plus lives up to its “super burger” billing, and can be on. customized with a variety of toppings.

If there ever were a time I “Is it good?” my mom asked.

But I couldn’t stop to answer her; I was too busy leaving shame at the door as the juices from the burger dripped down to my fingers and then back into my mouth.

My mom could tell what the answer would’ve been as she got started on her Chicken Marsala, two boneless chicken breasts sauteed in wine and

mushrooms. Despite not being able to finish the massive portions, we both enjoyed the leftovers for lunch the next day.

Our server was more than friendly, along with the rest of the staff, who twice during our visit got together to sing a happy birthday to guests.

I managed to request a brownie sundae for dessert, after loosening my belt and

chose wisely to indulge, it was now, as a brownie materialized covered in whipped cream, chocolate syrup and ice cream. My mom couldn’t eat another bite, but, as I said, shame already had been left at the door, so the spoon and my hand became one until the plate was empty.

With its selection of steaks, chicken dinners, kabobs and burgers, Al’s Char-House is a haven for carnivores, but

offers an occasional non-meat dish as an option.

For myself though, and much of the packed house in attendance, meat was the weapon of choice, and I would be happy to rearm at the La Grange steakhouse again.

Are you sufering with an

Autoimmune condition?

Living with an autoimmune disorder can afect every part of your life. It keeps you from enjoying the good things in life… time with your kids, grandkids, activities like goling, biking, yard work and gardening.

Did you know that leaky gut syndrome is a precursor to an autoimmune disease?

Did you know that your gut makes up 80% of your immune system?

An autoimmune disorder is when your immune system attacks your own body. here is NO CURE for autoimmune disorders, but you can calm down the immune response NATURALLY. My name is Dr. Jefrey E Forzley, with Lemont Natural Healthcare. I am a chiropractic physician and a holistic practitioner. I am passionate about helping people with chronic health conditions. I have been in practice for 28 years. As a holistic practitioner I evaluate the whole body and the many systems of the body, integrate their relationships, manage the underlying cause and use natural methods to manage autoimmune disorders.

Are you sufering with any of these autoimmune disorders?

• Hashimotos hroiditis • Rheumatoid Arthritis • Graves Disease • Multiple Sclerosis • Scleroderma • Sjogren’s Syndrome • Type 1 Diabetes • Myasthenia Gravis • Ankylosing Spondylitis • Perniscious Anemia

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

Medications are not always the long term answer.

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

Did you know that medications to treat autoimmune conditions can WEAKEN your immune system and lead to infections and immune degenerative conditions including cancer? here is a time to use medications but not before a NATURAL way to manage the underlying imbalance.

So how do I help people with autoimmune disorders? I use a combination of speciic NEUROLOGICAL protocols and NUTRITION recommendations… Neuro-Metabolic herapy.

Your Brain (nervous System) controls all other systems of the body. It controls your immune system. digestive system, endocrine (hormone) system… so if you have an immune system imbalance or autoimmune condition, evaluating and managing the nervous system is required for optimal improvement.

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

Testimonials I was diagnosed with Graves Disease (autoimmune thyroid) three years ago. My endocrinologist recommended surgery to remove my thyroid and put me on medication for the rest of my life. I searched for an alternative treatment to save my thyroid and found Dr. Forzley. hrough comprehensive lab testing he found out what was causing my immune system to attack my thyroid. I have been receiving treatments and following his recommendations exactly and my lab numbers are now normal, my endocrinologist is happy, my medication has been reduced in half and I feel better. I highly recommend Dr. Forzley and his natural approach.

Samantha R. I sufered from unbearable itching caused by Hives (chronic autoimmune Urticaria) for over 33 years. Steroid medications helped the symptoms temporarily but the side efects were bad.

Ater an in-depth blood and metabolic analysis, Dr. Forzley found the cause of my problem. Ater 4-5 months of strictly following his recommendations, my hives are completely gone and I feel great.

Cheryl P. If your immune system is not managed properly, your condition can worsen, result in a poor quality of life, cause a shortening of the length of your life and cause other autoimmune disorders.

Holistic herapy can manage autoimmune conditions by: 1) inding and balancing the underlying cause.

2) lowering the self destructive efects of the immune system.

3) using natural therapies that work with your body.

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

BUT, you can get symptom relief and calm down the immune attack on you own body. You must get a detailed immune system evaluation followed by speciic recommendation based on those tests.

Guess what stimulates TH1?Vitamin C. But if you are TH1 dominant, Taking vitamin C will WORSEN your immune response. hat’s right worsen. We need to identify which part of your immune system is dominant in order to calm down the immune system.

I don’t treat or cure autoimmune disorders.

By using speciic neurological and nutritional protocols, I help to decrease your body’s inlammation, detoxify your body, balance TH1, TH2, TH3 and TH17 which NATURALLY boosts your immune system. THAT is how I address autoimmune disorders.

Red Devil’s season ends with 61-50 loss to Benet in sectional

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com HINSDALE – The final chapter will show a 61-50 loss against Benet in a sectional semifinal game, but the story of the 2013-14 season for Hinsdale Central’s boys basketball team is much more complex.

When taken as a whole, the Red Devils’ story was more satisfying than the ending to it.

“It was a wonderful season,” Central head coach Nick Latorre said. “It was a phenomenal year. Great groups of kids.”

The biggest highlight of the season was winning the title at the Class 4A Naperville Central regional. Chase Hamilton rebounded Thomas Ives’ missed 3-pointer and put in a layup that lifted the Red Devils (23-7) to a 53-51 victory against the host Redhawks.

Central also defended its West Suburban Silver title, the first time since 1996 and 1997 it won back-to-back conference crowns. A 50-47 win over WSS-leading York on Feb. 18 secured at least a share of the title, and a 56-48 win against Glenbard West on Feb. 21 clinched the outright title. The Red Devils won their final 10 Silver games and went 11-1 in conference.

Though Hamilton, Ian Bunting, Jacob White, Ryan Scales (the 2014 recipient of the Carson Peele Most Valuable Teammate Award) and Grant Lillard are among the key seniors who won’t return next season, Hamilton sees the Red Devils remaining competitive.

“It was a good two years and I only see it getting better Mark Busch - mbusch@shawmedia.com next year with the guys comHinsdale Central’s Matt Rafferty drives to the basket during the March 11 sectional semifinal game against ing back and some guys coming up,” Hamilton said. “Even Benet at East Aurora High School. Rafferty will be a key returning player next season.

Senior roll call • Ian Bunting • Chase Hamilton • Max Hartzman • Grant Lillard • Marco Milojevic

• Kevin Nelson • Ryan Scales • Drew Wallace • Jacob White

though I’ll be gone, I’ll still be checking in on how these guys are doing.”

There were other highlights in addition to the regional and conference titles.

Central enjoyed a 10-game winning streak from Jan. 31 to March 7 and it went 4-1 at the prestigious Proviso West Holiday Tournament. The Red Devils’ only loss at Proviso West was a 45-44 contest against St. Joseph, a team that went on to win a Class 3A regional title. In fact, six of the seven losses came against teams that advanced past the regionals: York, St. Joe’s, St. Viator, Glenbard North, Fenwick and Benet.

The graduation of the seniors will sting, but there will be a solid foundation with juniors Jordan Bradshaw, Thomas Ives, George Kiernan and Matt Rafferty expected to return. Bradshaw and Rafferty were starters and Ives and Kiernan were key reserves in a season that was nothing but successful.

“There is nothing negative about this group at all. It was all very positive,” Latorre said. “Every day in practice they worked hard and had super attitudes. I thought because of the way they are and they way they went about their business, it really elevated the school pride in the team.

There was a lot of enthusiasm for the team. It was a lot of fun.

It was a great group of kids.”

Meet the all-area south team Here are Suburban Life Media’s 2014 boys basketball selections The boys basketball postseason is nearing its end with state finals

for Class 3A and Class 4A taking place this weekend. That means

it’s time to take a look at the 201314 boys basketball all-area team.

Barret Benson

Devin Blake

Gage Davis

Chase Hamilton

John Kelly

School: Hinsdale South Year: Sophomore Impact: A tough post player who is drawing college interest, Benson nearly averaged a double-double with a team-high 12.7 points and 9.5 rebounds per game. Was West Suburban Gold all-conference and all-tournament at both Hinsdale Central and DeKalb.

School: Downers Grove North Year: Sophomore Impact: In his first season playing varsity ball, this sophomore did a little bit of everything for the Trojans and topped the team with 12.7 points and 7.8 rebounds per game. He earned West Suburban Silver all-conference honors.

School: Bolingbrook Year: Senior Impact: With his solid range and all-around playmaking ability, Davis was second on the team with 13 points per game and third with two assists per game. The IPFW recruit was SouthWest Suburban Blue all-conference and all-tournament at McDipper.

School: Hinsdale Central Year: Senior Impact: Perhaps better known as the football team’s quarterback and as a future college tennis player, Hamilton made a big impact on the basketball court with his 12.7 points per game (second on the team) and was named West Suburban Silver all-conference.

School: Westmont Year: Senior Impact: The Sentinels’ leading scorer (11.6 points per game) and rebounder (5.8 per game) shot over 50 percent from inside the arc and was Interstate Eight second team all-conference, was named to the I-8 all-tournament team and was voted team MVP this season.

Jeremy Glavanovits School: Lisle Year: Senior Impact: A physical presence in the paint, this forward was second on the team at 10.5 points per game and led the Lions with 8.1 rebounds per contest. Also shot 63 percent from the free throw line while taking a team-leading 138 foul shots.

Honorable Mention

Prentiss Nixon

Sean O’Mara

Matt Rafferty

Danny Spinuzza

Mike Wisz

School: Bolingbrook Year: Junior Impact: Watching Nixon in action, it’s easy to see why he is a prized college prospect. Offense comes effortlessly, and he paced the Raiders with 15.3 points and 3.1 assists per game. He was named SouthWest Suburban Blue all-conferenc and all-tournament at the McDipper.

School: Benet Year: Senior Impact: The chants of ‘Overrated’ emanating from opposing student sections don’t faze him, and don’t seem to apply anyway. The Xavier recruit, East Suburban Catholic all-conference and Proviso West all-tournament selection is Benet’s all-time leading scorer and was averaging 23 points and 13 rebounds at the start of the playoffs.

School: Hinsdale Central Year: Junior Impact: This 6-foot-7 forward has a well-rounded post game, can hit from long range (16 3-pointers made) and sinks his free throws (75 percent). The West Suburban Silver all-conference player led Central with 18.1 points and 11.5 rebounds per game.

School: Downers Grove South Year: Senior Impact: Spinuzza did it all for the Mustangs. The team’s primary ball handler shot dished out 3.6 assists per game, shot 69 percent from the foul line and averaged 14.1 points per game. He was named West Suburban Gold all-conference.

School: Lemont Year: Senior Impact: In his third year on the varsity this winter, Wisz took over as the Indians go-to player and led the Indians in scoring.

A long-range shooter who also has the ability to get to the basket and finish or draw contact, this senior went over the 1,000-point plateau for his career this season.

Benet: Colin Bonnett, Liam Nelligan, Collin Pellettieri Bolingbrook: Shakur Triplett, Kenny Williams Downers Grove North: Myles Farley, Ray Greco Downers Grove South: Wes Dahle, Paul Engo, Kovas Rugienius Hinsdale Central: Jordan Bradshaw, Thomas Ives, Grant Lillard Hinsdale South: Larry Motuzis, Marcel Phillips Lemont: Luis Marquez Lisle: Shane Murray Westmont: Montraveous Little, Danny LoGiurato

ALL-AREA MVP

LISLE – The best basketball players are never content with their skills.

The best are always working to improve in some way.

Based on that criteria alone, Sean O’Mara is one of the best.

The senior center was already bigger than most players when he walked through the doors at Benet as a freshman, but it was his willingness to work and improve that turned him into a Division I player who is heading to Xavier in the fall. It’s his improvement that makes him the Suburban Life all-area team MVP. “He’s a very skilled big man,” said Benet head coach Gene Heidkamp, who knows something about skilled big men after coaching current Wisconsin standout Frank Kaminsky at Benet. “Obviously he’s got the size, but he’s also very unselfish and he’s a great passer. He has the ability to make everyone around him better.”

There aren’t many big men who are better passers than O’Mara. It’s a skill he developed out of necessity (to combat double- and triple-teams in the post) and because it’s an invaluable tool for a post player to have.

“I developed it, but I’ve had it for a little while and it’s been a really nice part of my game, I think,” O’Mara said. “My teammates really appreciate it as well because they know if the ball goes in the post it’s not a black hole, it’s going to come back out. You watch the game, it’s not like I’m lacking touches. My teammates know when I get the ball, good things are going to happen. Either I’m going to score, or I’ll get it back to them.”

Of course, O’Mara didn’t land a college scholarship just because he’s a good passer.

Mark Busch - mbusch@shawmedia.com

Benet’s Sean O’Mara slams home two points during a sectional semifinal game against Hinsdale Central on March 11 at East Aurora High School. The senior has developed into an elite center and will leave Benet as the program’s all-time leading scorer.

About Sean O’Mara School: Benet Year: Senior Height: 6-foot-9 Position: Center Jersey: No. 45 College: Xavier He has the strength to battle against the double-teams opponents typically throw at him. He possesses a variety of post moves which he can use to get to the rim. He can lower his shoulder and power to the hoop, or he can use his footwork to shake defenders and create space for an easier finish. He has also flashed an ability to hit jump shots from just outside the paint, another sign of his progression as a player.

“I’m a completely different player now,” O’Mara said.

“When I walked in the door at Benet, I was big, I was strong and I was able to kind of move people around, but that was eighth graders. I was going against 18-year olds, they’re men. To be able to go in and play against guys that were that physically capable in the game and also that skilled, it wasn’t like playing football [where you could just be physical], you had to be physical and skilled.”

Benet has a lineage of good big men, from O’Mara back to Kaminsky back to players who took the floor prior to Heidkamp’s tenure. Even with that history, O’Mara may go down as the best. Prior to the start of the playoffs he was averaging a double-double (23 points and 13 rebounds per game). Heading into Tuesday’s supersectional playoff game, he was at a program-leading 1,638 points and counting.

“He’s improved a lot during his career,” Heidkamp said.

“One thing you can say about Sean is he’s improved every aspect of his game every year.”

“Obviously he’s got the size, but he’s also very unselfish and he’s a great passer. He has the ability to make everyone around him better.”

Gene Heidkamp, Benet head coach

Chicago Football sports media franchise launches SHAW MEDIA AND DAILY HERALD MEDIA GROUP Shaw Media and Daily Herald Media Group recently announced the launch of Chicago Football, a print and digital sports media franchise covering high school, college and professional football. Veteran football analyst and Chicago-area sports personality Hub Arkush will spearhead the initiative.

The first edition of Chicago Football magazine hits newsstands in early April and will focus on the Chicago Bears’

preparation for the 2014 NFL Draft. The first edition will include exclusive interviews with head coach Marc Trestman and general manager Phil Emery. It also will break down the professional prospects of Chicago-area players, including Chris Watt (Glen Ellyn) and others.

In print, Chicago Football will be a glossy magazine published weekly during the football season and monthly in the offseason. The publishers also plan to produce several annual football guides to be distributed nationally.

Special Kids Day is a non-for-profit organization providing celebratory events for children with disabilities and their families in environments designed to accommodate their special needs.

Our events are always free for the children and their families. To help our mission, donations may be made on our website. www.specialkidsday.org For questions email us at: info@specialkidsday.org

subscribe today 630-368-1144

my SuburbanLife com/subscribe

The website HubArkush. com is now ChicagoFootball. com. The new site will provide in-depth news and analysis of the Bears, along with extensive information about the NFC North division and coverage of all 32 NFL teams.

The site also will provide analysis of local high school and college programs as the 2014 season approaches.

In addition to Arkush, Chicago Football contributors include Shaw Media’s Kevin Fishbain and Tom Musick, and the Daily Herald’s premier Bears expert Bob LeGere

and fantasy football analyst John Dietz. Veteran designer and editor Bob Peters – who previously worked with Arkush at Pro Football Weekly – also joined the Chicago Football team. Arkush indicated that he is in the process of hiring additional staff.

Chicago Football will be headquartered at the Daily Herald offices in Arlington Heights.

Arkush noted the time is right for this venture.

“The NFL’s popularity is at an all-time high, and many fans have an affiliation

with at least one college and high school program while many follow more than one,” Arkush said. “Chicago Football will be unique in its look at the sport from a geographical perspective, and our singular focus will allow us to go more in-depth than other media.”

Chicago Football’s NFL Draft Preview edition will be available on newsstands April 7. The magazine can be purchased at area newsstands or included as part of an annual subscription, available at ChicagoFootball.com.
