Edible book contest returning July 11 By DAN FARNHAM dfarnham@shawmedia.com CLARENDON HILLS – Patrons can chow down on some of their favorite literary titles during the Clarendon Hills Public Library’s Edible Book Contest from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. July 11 at the library, 7 North Prospect Ave. Culinary participants are asked to come up with a dish that somehow relates to one of their favorite book titles – whether it is a children’s story or an adult novel. This will be the fourth year for the contest at the library. “The first year we started, the summer reading theme was a food-related theme,” said Krista Devlin, head of youth services for the library. “It was popular, and we had pretty decent success. So, we’ve tried it again year-to-year.” Devlin said past participants have found different, creative ways to come up with book-inspired food. Some have copied the cover of a

book, but others have taken a book title and made it into a dish. Devlin said some have even changed the words of a title to come up with a dish, such as an entry called, “Harry Potato and the Order of the French Fries.” “It’s a way for people to get really creative,” Devlin said. Participants can drop off their entries from 11 a.m. to noon the day of the event.
The public is invited to view and vote on their favorites from noon to 1 p.m., followed by eating and announcement of the winners. The library will give out awards for several categories, including for kids in fifth grade and younger, young adults in grades 6 to 12, adults, families and the people’s choice.

Patrons dine outside in the shade on the first full day of business June 24 at Fuller House in Hinsdale.
Fuller House brings bar atmosphere downtown dfarnham@shawmedia.com HINSDALE – Patrons of downtown Hinsdale now have a full-service restaurant and bar they can dine at. Fuller House, 35 E. First St., opened for business June 23. “We’re the first bar in town,” co-owner Sam Vlahos said. “I think a lot of people are excited to have that kind of place to come in; [to] grab a bite and have a beer.” Vlahos, 26, owns the restaurant along with his sister, Patricia Vlahos-Segretto, 29. Patricia said she likes to think of Fuller House as an upstyle, family friendly restaurant.
The restaurant serves American fare, with an inhouse smoker to cook all of the meat it serves. The bar will have 12 beers on tap, 30 different varieties of bottled beer, a variety of cocktails and an extensive bourbon program. The decor is a mixture of rustic and modern, with wood beams from St. James Cathedral in Chicago and 12 flat-screen televisions. The two-story restaurant can seat 130 people, including 22 at the bar. There is also sidewalk seating for 20 during warmer seasons. Restaurant hours are from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays and 11

a.m. to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. Patricia and Sam grew up in the restaurant business. Their father owned a steakhouse in Lombard for 35 years and a chain of sports bars. Patricia went to school to study culinary skills, while Sam focused on entrepreneurship. The siblings own a couple of other restaurants, but Fuller House is their first full-service restaurant. They purchased Dips and Dogs next to Fuller House and own the Brick’s Woodfire Pizza in Naperville, Wheaton and Lombard. Patricia and Sam live in nearby Oak Brook and had

their eye on downtown Hinsdale for the restaurant. “We’re really familiar with the town, so we thought it would be the best to do a business in our local town,” Patrica said. Part of Patricia’s familiarity with Hinsdale comes from her husband, who owns Zazu Salon in downtown Hinsdale. “We see how loyal their patrons are and how Hinsdale residents love to [patronize] their local businesses,” she said. In their first week in business, Sam said they already have started to receive positive feedback. “The people with families are like ‘this is perfect for our family to come in,’” he said.

State workers need to bear share of cuts Illinois residents are pawns OUR VIEW
SPRINGFIELD – The way Illinois has handled negotiations with the largest union representing state workers has always been political. When the American Federation of State County and Municipal Employees flexes it political muscle in Springfield, politicians quake. Between 2002 and 2014, AFSCME poured $5.8 million into the campaign VIEWS coffers of state politicians. Scott In the midst of a campaign Reeder – three days after receiving an AFSCME endorsement – thenGov. Pat Quinn signed a deal in September 2010 with the union pledging that none of its employees would be laid off for the following two years. Two months later, Quinn was elected governor. Considering his razor-thin victory that year over state Sen. Bill Brady, it’s almost certain that Quinn would not have prevailed in that election if not for AFSCME’s support. And the governor’s office alone is responsible for negotiating with AFSCME. Between 2002 and 2014, government-worker unions combined pumped $47.5 million in the war chests of various Illinois state elected officials. And politicians kept upping their promises to these political contributors. That’s one of the reasons why the state has a $111 billion unfunded pension liability. But a strange thing happened last year. A candidate ran on a platform of taking on “union bosses.” The candidate, of course, was Bruce Rauner. The state is hurting and Rauner wants state workers to pay more for their health insurance and make other concessions. It’s a common predicament in the private sector. When an employer’s revenues are down, employees share in the sacrifice. But AFSCME doesn’t view the world that way. They want the state to jack up taxes. In other words, they want you to take a pay cut so they don’t have to. In past administrations, Big Labor benefited from the power of governors to cut deals on their own. With Rauner in office, that gubernatorial power doesn’t favor AFSCME. The union’s answer? Change the rules. Now it wants an unelected outsider to have the final say. Lawmakers, many of whom received AFSCME donations, passed a measure to allow for mandatory arbitration. Rauner almost certainly will veto the bill. Now we must ask ourselves, who should have the final say, someone elected and accountable to the voters or an outsider who AFSCME views as a means of avoiding sacrifice?
in a giant state chess game The mighty struggle underway over the Illinois state budget is eerily similar to the game of chess. The comparison is both apt and sad. The opponents are the entrenched Democrats, led by House Speaker Michael Madigan and Senate President John Cullerton, versus first-year Gov. Bruce Rauner and the minority Republicans. They represent the kings, queens, knights, bishops and rooks on the chess board. And the 12.8 million other Illinoisans? Well, if you’ve ever felt like a pawn in the great budgetary battle, join the club. In chess, pawns are manipulated to advance the interests of the major pieces. Pawns don’t matter much in the grand scheme of things. They are routinely imperiled and sacrificed to benefit the more powerful chess pieces. Likewise, in the budget battle, average citizens are manipulated to advance the interests of the politicians. If the public is imperiled by budgetary proposals and brinkmanship, it’s no real concern to the leadership class. The object of chess is to use one’s intelligence and experience to defeat the opponent. The same goes for politics, which unfortunately carries over into governance, and which is the crux of the budget battle: Will the state continue to live beyond its means, or not? The budget approved by the Democrats would spend $3 billion to $4 billion more than it takes in. Democratic leaders did that on purpose to pressure Rauner to approve tax

increases to cover the difference. For his part, Rauner doesn’t like the chronic overspending, vetoed most of the budget June 25, and awaits the arrival of Democrats at the bargaining table to negotiate for what he wants: some “pro-business” legislation and structural reforms to government that would weaken Democrats’ stranglehold on power. He previously announced more than $800 million in temporary cuts that are set to kick in with the new fiscal year that starts this week. What are the pawns’ roles in all of this? Average Illinoisans have spoken up about how proposed budget cuts would negatively affect them. Some have done so on their own; others have been trotted out by politicians. Either way, their stories are compelling. Senior citizens, the poor, those with physical and mental disabilities and others who rely on state funding are imperiled. The uncertainty is difficult to bear. In chess, pawns do have one golden opportunity to triumph. If a pawn can advance to the end of the board, it wins a powerful promotion and gains great influence. The opposing player tries to stop that from happening at all costs. In Illinois’ budgetary endgame, Illinoisans must put politicians in check and exert their combined influence to demand that fiscal prudence and the best interests of the people be part of the new budget. For politicians who just don’t get it, the public can deal with them at next election. Checkmate.

The American experiment as a constitutional republic has endured for nearly 225 years. It was a good run and now it’s ending. All three branches of our government are now writing law. The Congress is the only branch constitutionally charged with the responsibility of law writing. But the president claims to be able to do it with a phone and a pen, as he put it. And the Supreme Court has already rewritten “Obamacare” twice and gotten away with it. And if that’s not enough to do us in, when President Hillary takes over, her family foundation will be in position to sell what’s left of a once proud nation’s property and honor.

pension crisis facing the state of Illinois. In 2012, the average teacher salary in Illinois was almost $70,000. In addition to generous vacation time, guaranteed pension benefits and retiree health plans, they only have to work about 38 weeks a year. That’s one-fifth less than a full-time employee in the private sector. Underperforming teachers are almost impossible to fire since tenure is typically granted after only four years. How many of you wish you had that type of job security and compensation package?

The idea of man-caused global warming is often presented as some sort of scientific consensus.

Red Stars Earn Convincing 3-0 Win Away over Sky Blue FC
Several players with standout performances as Chicago remains atop NWSL table Piscataway, N.J. – The Chicago Red Stars defended their spot at the top of the NWSL table with a commanding 3-0 away win over Sky Blue FC on Sunday night. Vanessa DiBernardo, Jen Hoy and Alyssa Mautz all scored for Chicago, with Hoy adding an assist on Mautz’ second-half tally. The match also featured a pair of assists by 22-year-old Huerta and outstanding play by defender Abby Erceg, who made her return to the Red Stars lineup after captaining New Zealand in the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup. Chicago goalkeeper Michele Dalton earned her third clean sheet of the season behind an all-around solid performance. The Red Stars seized the lead in just the sixth minute of play. Huerta sprinted into the box on the left and battled to maintain possession before smartly centering to DiBernardo, who coolly sidestepped goalkeeper Brittany Cameron for the opening strike. Sky Blue FC had an opportunity to level the score a mere four minutes later, but Shawna Gordon’s left-footed shot from the top of the area went just over the frame. After three brilliant defensive plays in a row by Chicago’s Erceg, the 25-year-old center back was in the right spot again to block a 21st-minute cross from the right by Sky Blue FC’s Meg Morris. However, the interception fell right to Katie Freels, who nearly put away the opportunity with a left-footed attempt that rattled the crossbar. The home side had another chance to tie the match at the half-hour mark, as Taylor Lytle was in on goal off a beautiful through ball from deep inside her own half, only to have Red Stars outside back Arin Gilliland catch up and force her wide. While the rookie’s hustle allowed Erceg and Samantha Johnson to recover, Lytle still managed to get a shot off, firing across goal and just wide of the far post from the left side of the area. In the 34th minute, Chicago made their opponents pay dearly for the missed opportunities with a beautiful combination play doubling the lead for Head Coach Rory Dames’ side. Rachel Quon took full advantage of a breakaway by releasing Huerta down the center, and the rookie sensation unselfishly slid the ball through to Hoy for a simple tap-in from the mouth of the goal.
FACEBOOK.COM/CHICAGOREDSTARS
Sky Blue FC started off the second half on the right foot, as Freels put Danish international Nadia Nadim through on goal, but Red Stars keeper Michele Dalton left her feet for an exceptional block on the powerful driven effort. That set the stage for Chicago to increase their lead just after the hour mark. Danielle Colaprico’s long ball into the attack found Hoy entering the box with time on her hands, picking out Mautz for a right-footed shot that took a slight deflection and trickled inside the left upright. In the 66th minute of the competition, Huerta nearly added a fourth for her squad when she exploited some indecisive defending by toe-poking the ball away from Maya Hayes and took unleashed a shot on frame to force a diving stop by Cameron. Idaho native Huerta continued to wreak havoc in the closing stages of the match, dribbling past two defenders on the left side of the box and firing from close range, only for Cameron to produce a point-blank reaction save. The rebound fell into the path of Rachel Quon, whose low attempt on goal forced another diving save from the Sky Blue FC goalkeeper. Lytle had a chance to pull one back for the hosts, her strong shot from the top of the penalty area whistling just over the bar. Shorty after that, her teammate Nadia Nadim nearly scored what would have been a certain candidate for Goal of the Year. On a stoppage-time corner kick from the right, the striker tracked back to meet the ball near the edge of the box and smashed it off the crossbar by way of a spectacular bicycle kick. It would be the final opportunity of the night, as Chicago held on for its fifth victory of 2015. The NWSL-leading Chicago Red Stars look to make it consecutive wins when they travel to take on Houston Dash on July 12. The team’s next home game is a July 18 meeting with Boston Breakers at Benedictine University in Lisle.

Baba Karam’s specialty is tasty kabobs

Baba Karam Q WHERE: 117 W. St. Charles
HSL
VILLA PARK – A knock on some eateries is that they offer so many menu items, the cooking staff can never really master any of them. It’s precisely the opposite at Baba Karam. With a focus on Middle Eastern fare, the restaurant in Villa Park keeps the menu simple, and, in the process, has clearly perfected its craft. I stopped by Baba Karam on a recent evening with a dining companion. Hungry for some protein, I was hankering for something with beef or chicken. But first, to whet our appetite, we started with a hummus appetizer. The smooth, tasty dip, based on chickpeas and tahini sauce, was filled with flavor, and made the accompanying pita bread disappear quickly. Our server asked if we needed more pita, but it turned out that the portions matched up perfectly. For our entrees, we both zeroed in on the main section of the menu: the kabobs. Chicken, ground beef, lamb shank and a few different preparations of filet mignon were offered. I went for the one labeled “barg,” described as thinly sliced filet mignon marinated in saffron and spice. My companion opted for the boneless chicken, similarly marinated in saffron. We both ordered the dill rice; the other sides available were white rice and shirazi salad. The latter features cucumber, tomato and onion in a dressing of olive oil, black pepper, lime juice and mint. I definitely had my hankering for some meat fulfilled, and then some. The filet mignon was as delicious and tender as I expected, and I probably wolfed it down quicker than is strictly acceptable for a nice restaurant. Fortunately for me, my dining companion loved her chicken kabob but couldn’t finish the serving, so I got to sample a sizable portion of that entree, too. As terrific as the barg kabob was, I think the chicken

Tennis state title among spring highlights for Central By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com HINSDALE – The fall and winter seasons were successful ones for Hinsdale Central athletes, and spring sports kept up the trend. A tennis state title, a state volleyball appearance and a long-awaited softball regional title were just a few of the highlights, presented here in no particular order:
Four score for boys tennis
The expectation for Central’s boys tennis team is to win a state title every year. The Red Devils met that expectation with the program’s fourth straight state title and the seventh state title of the school year for the Red Devils. Martin Joyce was the singles champion, Eddie Grabill was fourth in singles play, and the doubles team of Lope Adelakun and Michael Czlonka placed fifth. Quotable 1: “We’ve been talking about this for a while. It was no guarantee we [Joyce and Lyons Township’s Gianni Ross] were going to see each other in the final, but we knew there was a good chance. We’ve been talking a little trash for a couple months now,” Joyce said. Quotable 2: “My goal coming into this year was to win our fourth straight team title. I wanted that more than anything. The individual is a little bit nicer, but I’m definitely way more excited that we won the team,” Grabill said.
Regional drought ends for softball team
Central opened a new softball field on campus this season and didn’t have to wait long for some good karma on the field. A 1-0, 13-inning win against Shepard on May 29 led to the Red Devils’ first regional title since 2006. Annie Bruns doubled in the 13th and scored on Riley Burr’s sacrifice fly, and Courtney Berlin locked up the win in the pitching circle. Quotable 1: “It feels amazing to be a part of the team that got it. I’m over the moon. It feels a lot better than I thought it would,” Bruns said. Quotable 2: “That makes it all that much sweeter, that we came from there to here. We are a representation that hard work pays off. We worked so hard and we really transformed

this program,” senior Faith Koffron said.
Boys volleyball racks up playoff victories Just two seasons ago Central’s boys volleyball team was a nine-win squad, but this year was a much different affair. The Red Devils defeated Riverside Brookfield for their first regional title since 2009, then defeated Lyons Township for their first sectional title and first state appearance. Quotable: “I couldn’t have asked for a better senior year. ... Now that I think about it it’s one of my favorite experiences of high school. I couldn’t ask for more,” senior Jake Regnery said.
Girls soccer wins two postseason titles
Central’s girls soccer team kept up its tradition of success by winning conference, regional and sectional titles. Included in that was a comefrom-behind win against York in a sectional semifinal game. The Red Devils came up just short of a state finals berth but finished the season with a 19-7 record.
Red Devils make run to lacrosse state final A stellar season culminated with an appearance in the state championship match for Hinsdale Central’s girls lacrosse team. The Red Devils pushed defending state champ Loyola to the limit but lost 6-4 to match the second-place finish of the 2011 team. Kelsie Chisholm, Andrea Collins and Lally Johnson were selected to participate in the 2015 Brine Lacrosse National Classic while Anna Santulli and Yasmain Hamood were named 2015 High School First Team All-Americans by U.S. Lacrosse.

Badminton, gymnastics state showings highlight Hornets’ spring 21 By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com
DSL • Friday, July 3, 2015 • mysuburbanlife.com • Suburban Life
DARIEN – In a busy high school spring sports season, athletes from Hinsdale South stood out with some strong performances. Here are some of the Hornets’ spring sports highlights, presented in no particular order.
Hornets make it happen in the postseason
A year after claiming a Class 2A state trophy South’s girls soccer team was in a bit of a rebuilding mode, but it didn’t show on the field. The final 9-11-2 record might not seem impressive, but that came in the face of several key injuries and the Hornets still were able to win a regional title this spring. Quotable: “This was a completely different team, with only three or four players back from last year. They played hard and together the whole year. We never played the same starting 11 two games in a row the whole year because of the injuries. Still, we had a great conference run,” head coach Jen Belmonte said.

Duo gets it done at boys state track
Juniors Charlie Nodus and Roman Drabchuk were all-state finishers in the Class 2A cross country meet in the fall of 2014. The duo earned the same standing at the Class 3A state track meet this spring. Drabchuk finished sixth in the 1,600-meter run (4:15.26) while Nodus took ninth in the 3,200 (9:23.16). Quotable: “It’s nice to be all-state in 3A also. I tried to just run my race and not worry about what the other people did. But it went out pretty fast. I was cautious and stayed back, I didn’t want to die in the heat. I was happy with the race, even though it got super hot in the end,” Nodus said.
All-state gymnastics showing for Siaw
Adrian Siaw was an event finalist on floor exercise at the 2014 boys state gymnastics meet and finished sixth. It was a good showing but just outside of a top-5, all-state finish. Siaw made up for it this year as the senior scored a 9.250 to finish third on floor for

Hinsdale South badminton player Judy Yang practices May 11 in preparation for the state tournament. Yang was one of four Hornets who qualified for the state tournament this season. South’s first all-state medal since 1999. Teammate Kwame Lipscomb was a finalist on floor and placed 10th (8.550). Quotable: “I’ve been thinking about this since last year. That sixth place makes third feel a lot better [this time],” Siaw said.
Boys volleyball gets over regional hump
South’s boys volleyball team had played in a slew of regional championship matches, the most recent being in 2007, but the Hornets’ playoff runs never got past that point. That changed this season as they defeated De La Salle in three games to win the program’s first regional.
Josh King makes college commitment
The route to Hinsdale South ended up in the GPS devices of several major college coaches who were recruiting Josh King. The class of 2016 defensive end put his recruiting to an early end when he gave a verbal commitment to Michigan State on June 5. Quotable: “You just focus on things that are Josh King important, and that’s how I came to this decision. I felt in my heart that there was no better place than Michigan State,” King said.

HSL
Badminton has been one of South’s top spring sports for a number of years, and this season was no different. Sophomore Judy Yang replicated her run to the state championship match, finishing second, and she was joined by teammates Sara Temelkova in singles and the doubles team of Jenna Stobbe and Jackie Camelli at the state tournament. Quotable: “It is an honor to be there. You’ve worked hard for so long that it’s like, ‘Finally.’ We’ll see how it goes,” Temelkova said of making it to state.

Q&A
‘It’s been unbelievable’
Lemont native relishes experience with Stanley Cup By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com
LEMONT – The past year has been a whirlwind for Scott Darling after the Lemont native signed with the Chicago Blackhawks on July 1, 2014. Having made a variety of stops on the minor league circuit, the 26-year old got his first call-up to the NHL on Oct. 26 and was the winning goalie in a 2-1 victory against the Ottawa Senators. Darling went on to play in 14 regular season games before seeing action in five postseason contests in the opening round against Nashville, where he notched three wins. His performance helped the Blackhawks advance to the second round and ultimately capture their third Stanley Cup in the past six seasons. In the process, the 6-foot-6 goalie became the first Chicago-area born player to have his name etched on the Cup as a member of the Blackhawks. On June 29, Darling brought the cup to his former hometown and put it on display at the Lemont Park District. Staff writer Scott Schmid was part of a press conference at which Darling spoke about the experience in Lemont and what it has been like to be a part of a Stanley Cup champion. What has the last couple of weeks been like and has it sunk in that you are a Stanley Cup Champion? Darling: It’s been crazy since we’ve won. We’ve done a lot of great stuff, like going to Wrigley Field and going to see Mumford & Sons. And now this is my day to share the Cup with my hometown and with my family and friends. Once it all winds down a little bit, I can relax and just reflect, maybe turn my phone off for a few days and enjoy it for a little bit. What’s the last year been like? Darling: The whole year, from start to finish, like I’ve said before, it was such an honor to sign with the team and I was thrilled to be on the [Rockford] Ice Hogs. Then to get the opportunity with Chicago and to have a role

Thousands of fans lined up to see the Lemont native and the trophy in person. in the playoffs and winning the Cup, it’s been unbelievable. To get to bring the Cup back to Lemont, how special is that? Darling: This is where I spent a lot of my life, these are the streets where I use to ride my bike. To see how excited the people are, it means a lot. I never forgot where I came from. I call this home, I always have my whole life. I played Little League here, I played for the Lemont Indians. I was [just like] those kids out there, and to see them all here, it’s exciting.

Cup last week with the team. This is a great opportunity to share it with everyone else.
How did your new tattoo of the Stanley Cup come about? Darling: I’m a fan of tattoos. I always wanted an excuse to get a Stanley Cup tattoo and now I have a great one. What is your mindset heading into next season? Darling: I’m hungry as ever. I want to stay here, I want to be here for a long time. I’ll take a couple of weeks off and then a couple of weeks later, the season will start. I’m excited to get to camp and I still have to earn my spot for next year.
