Business to engage residents’ artistic side By AMANDA FRAZER
If you go
msleditorial@shawmedia.com WESTMONT – Whether residents have a knack for art or have not touched a paint brush since grade school, one Westmont business wishes to bring out the artist in everyone. No Corner Suns began offering handmade gifts, art supplies and classes for all ages Sept. 1 at 134 N. Cass Ave. “We want people to know that anyone can do this,” said Westmont resident Heather Kostal, founder and owner of the studio. “It’s so nice to have a creative space and not be worried about the kitchen getting messed up.” The studio, which is located on the second floor of the building that houses the Weston Travel Agency offers classes for children ages 2 through high school. Classes include Junior Lit & Art, which allows ages 3 to 5 to read a story and create a piece of art inspired by the story, and Three Paintings/Three Weeks, which enables junior high school-age children to paint with acrylic, watercolors and poster paint.

Adults also can put paint to canvas while sipping wine. Participants must bring their own refreshments, but each class includes painting supplies and two hours of instruction. “For adults, it’s been a popular getaway at night since it’s two hours of painting and everyone says it’s relaxing and allows them to not think about work,” Kostal said. Kostal added she provides a different lesson for each class and encourages participants to concentrate their paintings on the topic. “This week, we did Picasso, and [participants] learned a little and painted something inspired by him,” Kostal said. “My goal is more that they are learning something as they
are doing it and people will drink and have fun, too but it’s more about self expression.” No Corner Suns also teaches classes through the Westmont and Clarendon Hills park districts. It also hosts birthday parties, showers and bachelor/bachelorette parties. In addition to dedicating time to her studio, Kostal, who has a bachelor’s degree in art education from Eastern Illinois University and a master’s in art education from Boston University, is an art teacher for Forest Park School District 91. She has been a public school art teacher for the past 15 years. While Kostal teaches several classes at the studio, her friend, Westmont resident Valerie O’Connor, also teaches several classes at the studio. O’Connor has a bachelor of fine arts degree from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Kostal’s desire to provide quality art education to the area fueled her desire to open her studio. She said she feels students do not have adequate exposure to art in school and sometimes must choose to take either art or another elective.
“I don’t think it should be that way – [students] should have the option of doing all of these things,” Kostal said. Kostal decided to base the name of her studio off a symbol that many people draw or have drawn: sun positioned in the upper corner. Her curiosity as to why so many draw the sun in this manner led her to study the topic for her master’s degree research project. “I found out it’s a development thing and that we are praised for symbol making,” Kostal said. “It’s a funny symbol and I like it … I don’t hate it … so we use it on our logo and aprons.” Kostal hopes to continue to offer more classes and encourage children and adults to have fun while learning. She also wishes to eventually expand the retail space in her studio to offer more handmade goods to customers. “As we grow and expand, I hope to be a staple of the community,” Kostal said. “I’m in it for the long haul. I want people to see me and think ‘art studio’ and when they see the art studio to think ‘Westmont.’”

Madigan opinion could delay DuPage County vote counts By DAN FARNHAM
News to your phone
dfarnham@shawmedia.com Election results in DuPage County could take a day longer than usual for the Election Commission to tabulate after Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan’s recent opinion on the counting process. Madigan’s statement, issued Oct. 15, said that ballots collected through early voting and absentee balloting cannot be counted before election polls close at 7 p.m. Nov. 4. Specifically, the opinion said that running the ballots through tabulating equipment is a form of counting. DuPage commission’s Assistant Executive Director Joseph Sobecki said waiting until 7 p.m. on election day will definitely impede how quickly they can report results. “Most likely it would be pushed back about a day,” Sobecki said.

Visit shawurl.com/texts to sign up for news and weather text alerts from Suburban Life. Sobecki explained the absentee ballots normally are scanned into the tabulators during the day of the election. During presidential elections, the commission sometimes begins the process as early as the Friday before. Although the ballots are scanned, no votes are tallied until the polls close at 7 p.m. Until then, the information is stored in the machine without any running total output. As of Friday, Sobecki said the commission received about 7,300 absentee ballots of the 16,750 people who applied for them. As long as the ballots are postmarked before election day, the commission

will count them. Natalie Bauer, Illinois Attorney General communications director, said the decision was released to clarify election laws because of procedural questions some election officials had asked. However, the Attorney General’s Office has yet to make a decision on whether this process falls within its interpretation of the law. Bauer said the office received questions about the process and is “looking into matters right now to provide additional guidance.” The Cook County Clerk’s Office said it plans to compile early votes using its normal process, which it believes complies with the law and Madigan’s opinion. DuPage officials, however, are still working with the Attorney General’s Office before making a decision.

A BURN IN THE MOUTH Q: What should I do if I burn the inside of my mouth? A: The first piece of advice is to be patient when eating or drinking something hot. Wait until it’s cooled a bit before putting it into your mouth. Don’t pop something just out of the microwave into your mouth. Most of us, though, at one time or another, bite into, say, a sizzling piece of pizza and scorched the roof of our mouth right behind the two front teeth. Or maybe it was the first sip of a steaming hot cup of coffee. If you burn the inside of your mouth or your tongue, and you have access to an ice cube, put it in your mouth. Otherwise, rinse the area with cold water as soon as possible. This will help ease the pain and minimize both the swelling and tissue damage. If the burn is particularly uncomfortable, you can go to the pharmacy and get an over-the-counter product like Orabase, an oral bandage, a pectin ointment or a topical mouth analgesic containing benzocaine. After the first day, on an ongoing basis, rinse your mouth four or five times daily with warm water in which you’ve dissolved a half-teaspoon of salt. This will promote steady healing. Avoid spicy food or brittle items like crackers that could either irritate or scrape the burned spot. Talk with your dentist for more information on first aid steps for burns and other dental emergencies.

WESTMONT – One Westmont house is going all out for Halloween, again. Paul Quaglia’s spooky setup is catching eyes in the 100 block of South Adam Street. Quaglia said he’s been decorating like this for about 12 years – eight in Westmont – and tries to capture different generations of horror. “My display captures the early years of horror, from Lon Chaney, Bela Lugosi and of course Boris Karloff, through the 50s when aliens were popular, then to the 70s, 80s and 90s with ‘The Exorcist’, ‘Friday the 13th’, ‘Halloween’ and ‘Scream’. The last area – the zombie area – is modern horror,” Quaglia said. His newest feature is his “Zombie Apocalypse” zone, which plays up the zombie Westmont resident Paul Quaglia has a zombie theme outside his home. theme that’s popular now, he Quaglia has been collecting Halloween decorations for his home for years. said.

Car Care Clinic helps keep local seniors safe If you didn’t have your car to get you around, what would you do? Our cars represent our freedom, and it is for this reason Downers Grove Township hosted its first Car Care Clinic for senior citizens Sept. 20 at the Westmont Fire Department. Thanks to the efforts of numerous volunteers from many community businesses and organizations, the clinic was a major success. COMMUNITY Volunteer mechanics from VOICE locally owned and operatLori ed businesses performed a Wrzesinski 31-point safety check on 57 cars. Residents were able to meet car repair experts on neutral ground for the inspection and directly talk with them about issues that were found during the safety check. Talking to mechanics in a friendly atmosphere made it a more pleasurable experience for residents. Veronica Hess from Burr Ridge, who heard about the clinic from the Mount Carmel Seniors group, was all smiles as she watched her car’s inspection. “It’s a useful thing for a senior citizen to have something like this,” she said. “It is nice to have it so close.” When it came time to go over the inspection of Hess’ car, Joe Bettinger from Car-X was very passionate about his involvement. “I feel like I’m helping my mother,” he said. “She lives in Idaho and it’s hard for me to be able to do things like this for her.” While waiting for their cars, residents also had the opportunity to eat a little breakfast and visit some of the other organizations that made this clinic a success. AARP was on hand with driving class information that helps drivers stay safe on the road. Youth volunteers from the Township’s peer jury program assisted with checking all the inside and outside car lamps and bulbs. The DuPage County Sheriff’s Department provided Citizen’s Police academy volunteers while Deputy Mike Urso came on his day off to help. The Westmont Park District helped get the word out, and the Darien Police were on hand to share information on safety in the home. Downers Grove Township, “your township,” strives to look at the needs of its residents and, where possible, provide programs or services. Making these connections with local organizations to accomplish this is one of the ways that we do this in a way that is effective and makes the most out of our resources. With a program like this, knowing that we also are helping to keep some of our most precious residents safe makes it even more rewarding.
Lori Wrzesinski is the public relations director for Downers Grove Township.

SOUND OFF
Just a thought [on the Downers Grove Village Hall/police department buildings] … has any consideration been given to swap buildings? With the Village Hall too large and the Police Department building too small, why not swap buildings? Replace the roofs, upgrade HVAC as needed and remodel the interiors. Has got to be cheaper than options No. 2 and 3 and should address concerns with option No. 1. During construction, hold council meetings in Lincoln Center or the YMCA. I don’t like option No. 4. I believe both facilities should be kept downtown.

Tax structure needs work
Yes, I’m calling with respect to the “Stand up to the teachers union” comment in the Sound Off column. Basically, when they’re talking about a progressive instead of a regressive tax structure, that’s a very strong point, and it’s something that needs to be done in the state of Illinois in my opinions because we’re trying to work for the good of the state. I think it is a function of the state to try to distribute the money evenly through the state. That homeowners’ tax is in a way regressive on some people, but on others it’s not.

Westmont School District 201 is once again wasting our tax dollars on a referendum that was already voted down. Eighty percent of the village spoke loud and clear, but the board still continues to do what it wants, not what the people want. They were elected to be the voice of the people, and they don’t listen. A couple of elevators, small improvements and creating and utilizing the policy and procedures is what is needed. This is what our community can afford. By the way, I did not see one dollar of this absurd referendum proposal going toward education.

To the Editor: Community Unit School District 201’s referendum plan is flawed. They are trying to appeal to residents’ fears about school safety to cover up the “pork” in their plan. Everyone wants the schools to be safer and no one will argue that point. Enclosing classrooms at the Junior High and High School are great, wonderful parts to this plan. Creating secure, ADA accessible entrances and upgrading fire safety features at all schools is also worthwhile. However, in their little handouts they neglect to mention the four extra conference/meeting rooms they want to add to Manning School, not including the new principal office. This would bring the total number of conference/meeting rooms to seven, including the Community Room. For the life of me, I cannot imagine that all of these conference rooms will be used

To the Editor: I am writing to share information about the referendum that will be on the ballot in November. Community Unit School District 201 will be asking the taxpayers of Westmont to approve a referendum to improve the safety, security and accessibility of the schools in the district. My children recently participated in various drills at the beginning of the school year. While we are familiar with the fire and tornado drills of past, the newest drill my children have learned involves how to prepare themselves in the event there is an intruder in their school. This drill requires the students to barricade the doors, run from trouble and fight an intruder if needed. I asked myself the other day, “If this were a real situation, would my child survive?” Our classrooms simply do not have the capability of keeping each and every student safe. In November, the ballot will ask all residents to vote about this topic. Many residents may not have children in this school district anymore, never did or their children attend a different school, but the reality is still very much the same. Situations like the shootings in Connecticut could happen in Westmont. This isn’t about whether you have a child in these schools. This is about keeping our community from being the next on a very long list of tragic incidents. This is about keeping our children safe. This is about keeping Westmont safe. Nothing, no amount of money in the world, is above these children’s safety. The short-term cost and longterm solution that the school district has proposed are well worth our children’s safety. It truly does “take a village” to make this happen. It cannot happen unless our residents vote with a resounding Yes on election day.

We invite you to join us for a lovely reception with a raffle and delicious lunch while enjoying the breathtaking grounds of Medinah Country Club.

EARLY VOTING The Village of Downers Grove will be an early voting site for the November 4, 2014, General Election. Early voting will continue through Saturday, November 1, 2014, in the Committee Room at Village Hall, 801 Burlington Avenue. The hours for early voting will be:
HALLOWEEN Trick-or-Treating in the Village will be on Friday, October 31, 2014. While there are no mandated hours, the Police Department recommends activity begin no earlier than noon and cease when daylight hours end. Curfew prohibits anyone under 17 years of age to be on the street after 11:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and midnight on Friday and Saturday.
Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. further information about early voting.
MONTHLY ELECTRONICS RECYCLING SUSPENDED Due to the termination of the DuPage County contract for electronics recycling at local municipal locations, the Village will no longer offer monthly electronics recycling. The County's vendor, Creative Recycling, terminated its contract in July. The County was able to provide this service for free because electronics manufacturers were required by law to subsidize recycling. The cost and demand for recycling now outweighs the subsidy, so recycling vendors have passed on the cost to municipalities or canceled their contracts. Since August, the Village has offered four additional events, at the Village's expense, with Vintage Tech Recycling. During this time, DuPage County has looked for a vendor arrangement that would continue to provide the service at no cost to municipalities but has not found a vendor for the service. Village staff will continue to work with the County to look for opportunities to provide this service. Please visit www.downers.us for links to websites that provide recycling opportunities.
LEAVES A friendly reminder that leaves may not be burned or raked into the street. All DuPage County residents live in a watershed, meaning everything entering storm drains eventually runs into rivers or streams. In autumn, leaves often end up in waterways and can become a source of water pollution. Leaves can also build up along curbs, gutters and storm drains, which can lead to localized flooding. The Village asks for your help, if you are able, in keeping storm grates on your street free and clear of leaves and other debris. This allows water to flow freely into storm drains during rain events.
CHANGE YOUR CLOCKS CHANGE YOUR BATTERIES Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday, November 2, 2014, at 2:00 a.m. Remember to set your clocks backward one hour. This is also a great time to replace smoke detectors and/or smoke detector batteries.

Phillip Parisi Academic Achievements: National Honors Society Member (11,12); Spanish Honor Society Member (12) School Activities: Elected Student Government/ Student Body President (12); Elected Student Government Class Representative (9, 10, 11); S.A.L.T. (Serving and Loving Together - Benet’s campus ministry program) (11, 12); Philosophy Club (11, 12); Conquer Club (11, 12) Founder and President; Sports Announcer (11, 12) Announced sophomore basketball home games & Varsity home lacrosse games; Cross Country (9, 10, 11) Out of this 100+ member team, Phil was consistently in the Varsity “Top 7” athletes. He was elected a captain his junior year, and was a member of the Top 7 state-qualifying team; Track & Field (9,10) State-Qualifying athlete for the 4x800m relay. Community Service: Through NHS, Phil completes a minimum of 10 hours of service per semester; Likewise, as the S.A.L.T. Co-Head of Communications, Phil both promotes and partakes in various service opportunities throughout the year. Examples of the service work Phil has completed include: Annual Christmas Drive Shopper; Annual Benet Golf Fundraising Event; Feed My Starving Children; Naperville Jaycees Last Fling Volunteer; KidsMatter Board Member (11, 12); Mission trip to Guatemala (12) Nominated by Kendall Hayes, Counselor: “After a two-year stint on the college admission side of the desk, this fall marks my 10th year working as a high school college consultant. I can honestly say that Phil Parisi is in the “Top Five” most impressive young people I’ve come across in my career. I met Phil for the irst time last spring upon his initial college planning conference. Not long thereafter, he was elected President of our student body. Attaining Presidential status has been a goal Phil has had since his freshman year and it all came to fruition because of his innate leadership ability, careful planning, and precise execution. Phil quite literally hit the ground running his freshman year by excelling on the cross country team. He is a remarkable athlete who’s a repeat State qualiier and most recently held the title of Captain for our 100 + member, cross country team. Running cross country was a launching pad for a high school career chockfull of exploration, commitment and opportunities seized. Phil Parisi genuinely lives life to the fullest with integrity and a healthy dose of charisma. He strikes a balance between normalcy and extraordinary unlike anyone I’ve ever met. There’s nothing he won’t try. There’s nothing he can’t do. He’s truly one in a million. Phil had this to say regarding his academic career here at Benet, “I’m smart but not nerdy. I care about my grades but I’m not obsessed. I spend time studying but also know that I have to stay sane by having a really fun time on the weekends and sometimes during the week.” That mentality has helped Phil perform exceptionally well within our accelerated college preparatory curriculum while taking one of the most rigorous course loads available compared to his peers. Teacher’s value Phil’s fabulous sense of humor, which keeps the classroom environment light and enjoyable. They also value his intellect and high level of discussion, which encourages his fellow classmates to stay engaged in the learning process. Phil is wildly creative and often develops witty titles for his papers like, “Hugh Can Call Me Phil,” which drew a comparison between Phil (who has a self-proclaimed “obsession” with wearing robes) to Hugh Hefner. Outstanding standardized test scores complement Phil’s impressive transcript and lead me to believe he is well prepared for the
scholastic rigors of any college in the nation. It is with my greatest enthusiasm that I recommend Phil Parisi to you. His adventuresome spirit is inspiring. His leadership ability, utterly amazing. You’ve got to love a kid who grabs the bull by the horns to accomplish his every dream and desire. You will be hard pressed to ind another candidate with Phil’s repertoire of skills and qualities. In addition to being truly upstanding, Phil is personable, humble and gracious. I respectfully request that he is given your highest consideration and hope you’ll feel free to contact me should you have any concerns about Phil’s candidacy..”

There is also the addition of four more small office spaces, not including the ones for the receptionist and principal. Who is going to use those offices since the business offices have already moved to South School? Finally, what is a “Reading Center” and how is it different than the library and the extra reading rooms at both schools? Is it really necessary to have three or more separate areas in each elementary school just for reading? If little reading/study rooms are really desired, a renovation to the library can include them, much like our town library. Residents of Westmont, tell the school board we want to protect our kids without paying for the excess “pork.” Theresa Van Spankeren

carefully researched. This bond money would fund the projects that have been identified as a priority for our district and will improve the safety and security of our schools, the ADA accessibility and the educational environment. Yes, the focus is on safety, security and accessibility. Three of our schools allow visitors to enter with free access. Echoes of Columbine and Sandy Hook ring out. We have open stairwells that cannot contain the flames and smoke of a fire. We have students who use wheel chairs forced to spend valuable time using a lift. We have open classrooms where students can, theoretically, be instructed simultaneously in AP Calculus and Spanish. Can you listen to and learn those at the same time? I can’t. 2014 is the least expensive time to pass this referendum. The upgrades must happen. If they can happen now, interest rates are low and construction costs are reasonable. It was suggested that District 201 has “$7 million” in “surplus funds.” The district has an audited fund balance of $3,201,449 in the Operations and Maintenance Fund, of which $2,177,900 is surplus. As a parent and homeowner, voting “Yes” for this referendum is my responsibility for my children and the children of the rest of the current and future families of the District. Please make yours an educated vote as well.
The voters in CUSD 201 should take a moment to consider the Nov. 4 referendum. There are some who would reduce it to numbers. Yes, the district needs $26 million. Yes, if approved, it would mean that homeowner’s taxes would rise. But broken down it’s really only about $1/day. And what about the cost if we don’t pass this referendum? That’s the bottom line that should influence each voter’s decision. Courteney Templeton The $26 million has been Westmont

John & Tony’s Ristorante an inviting steakhouse WEST CHICAGO – Discovering an abundance of delicious options on a menu is particularly pleasing, given my dining companion’s finicky nature when it comes to food choices. John & Tony’s Ristorante in West Chicago ably meets the challenge with offerings of steak and seafood to pasta, pizza and burgers. A fire glowing softly in the attractive dining room’s stone fireplace, and music by Dean Martin, Michael Bublé and other crooners created a relaxing atmosphere as we perused the menu. The appetizer list quickly caught our attention. The bacon-wrapped dates sounded tempting, but so did the crispy calamari. Of course, we also considered the flaming saganaki and the antipasto platter. We zeroed in on our dinner selections, deciding to forgo the openers and save our appetites for our entrees. My companion ordered the 18-ounce, ribeye steak, cooked medium well, with a side of garlic butter sauce for dipping, and garlic roasted red potatoes. The garlic trifecta was completed with his choice of dressing for the house salad. The steak was cooked perfectly and was extremely tender. The garlic butter sauce offered as a side condiment gave the steak an extra boost, but the cut of meat could certainly stand on its own without any embellishment. I selected the Parmesan-crusted, bone-in pork chop with garlic roasted red potatoes and a simple house salad with balsamic vinaigrette. The chop was about half an inch thick, and lavishly crusted with Parmesan cheese, offering great flavor and a moist cut. The garlic roasted red potatoes were a tasty side dish to both the steak and pork chop. A garnish of thinly sliced spirals of carrots and beets provided an aesthetic touch with a nice crunch. If you prefer Italian-Amer-

Is vision loss inevitable with age? The answer may surprise you
(BPT) - Eighty-three percent of U.S. adults believe their eyesight will worsen as they age, no matter what preventive steps they take, according to a recent DSM Nutritional Products survey. While genetics and lifestyle factors do play a role for some serious eye conditions that cause vision loss such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), years of proper nutrition may protect vision in the long term. More than 2 million Americans age 50 and older suffer from AMD, and it is especially prevalent among Caucasian women. “You don’t want to reach your 40s and realize that you’re beginning to have vision problems,” says Dr. Kimberly Reed, optometrist and Ocular Nutrition Society board member. “Following a few simple recommendations can help support your vision - and your family’s vision - now and in the future.” Reed offers these tips for maintaining eye health and supporting vision in the long term: 1. See your diet in color Many brightly colored fruits and vegetables contain lutein and zeaxanthin, two powerful antioxidants that research shows are beneficial in maintaining macular health. Intake of 12 mg per day of lutein and zeaxanthin offers the best protection, but only 10 percent of Americans are getting enough of these essential nutrients, according to the American Optometric Association. For weekly meal planning this year, choose colorful fruits and vegetables that provide these important antioxidants, like spinach, kale, and other dark leafy greens, as well as corn, peas, broccoli, and orange and red peppers. 2. Omega-3 fatty acids for eye health A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that people with higher intakes of omega-3 fatty acids may experience a lower incidence of dry eye syndrome (DES). For patients who suffer regularly from dry eyes, omega-3 intake can significantly improve symptoms and increase quality tear production. Adults should get at least 1,500 mg per day of DHA and EPA either by consuming fatty fish, such as salmon, mackerel, and sardines, or taking high-quality fish oil and algae supplements. Be sure to check with your physician if you are taking medications that affect blood clotting before increasing your intake of omega-3s to this level. For women who are pregnant or nursing, DHA is an essential nutrient to support infant visual development. 3. Remember your vitamins and minerals An array of vitamins and minerals also play an important role in maintaining eye health. For instance, A and B vitamins perform many complex and critical functions throughout the body, including the eyes. And, according to a study published in Ophthalmology, vitamins C and E, which function as antioxidants, are also essential to eye health and have been shown to impact the progression of certain forms of AMD. Finally, zinc helps deliver vitamin A from the liver to the retina in order to produce melanin, a protective pigment in the eyes. Get your fill of at least five servings of colorful fruits and vegetables, as well as nuts and legumes, per day to obtain these essential vitamins and minerals. Even when striving to follow an optimal diet, it’s difficult to get the recommended amounts of essential vitamins and nutrients from food alone, so nutritional supplements can play an important role in maintaining eye health. Several products specifically formulated to support eye health and vision are available, so ask your eye health professional at your next appointment.

Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that affects people in every walk of life. It is estimated that 20 million Americans and 60% of diabetics suffer from this disorder. There are many kinds of neuropathy, the symptoms of which include burning, tingling, weakness, numbness, paralysis, and dull to excruciating pain - especially in the hands and feet. Although many neuropathies have no known causes, neuropathy is often associated with other conditions. Examples are: Diabetes, shingles, toxins, autoimmune disorders, bulging discs that compress on nerves, spinal stenosis, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and poor nutrition. Statin drugs and chemotherapy can also cause neuropathy. For the last three years Dr. Susan Kelenyi, DC of Glen Ellyn, IL has worked extensively with peripheral neuropathy patients. Dr. Kelenyi describes peripheral neuropathy as damage to the nerves, which transmits information from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body. “This can result in pain, loss of feeling, and inability to control muscles, such as difficulty with walking. As with any other condition, there is no “one size fits all” remedy for those suffering from neuropathies and treatment may vary depending on the cause and severity.” However, many individuals can and do find relief using natural remedies. And this is where Dr. Kelenyi steps in. Of the many causes of peripheral neuropathies”, says Dr. Kelenyi, “ a major one comes from a metabolic condition. You cannot drug your way out of a metabolic condition. It requires a change in lifestyle.” Dr. Kelenyi says, “Diet is crucial when addressing peripheral neuropathy, especially in diabetics and autoimmune disorders. Harmful foods to be avoided include alcohol, sugar, processed foods, fast foods, junk foods, sodas of all types, foods sprayed with pesticides, and trans-fatty acids. Sweeteners and additives contained in diet soda and processed foods such as MSG and aspartame can negatively impact the nervous system.” As a Board Eligible Chiropractic Neurologist, Dr. Kelenyi performs specific metabolic and neurologic tests to help determine what is causing the problem. There are a few primary types of neuropathies: Large or small diameter or both as well as motor. If jerking is involved then it can be as much a problem in the brain due to trans-neural degeneration as it is in the peripheral nerve. A thorough and comprehensive exam ensures an accurate diagnosis.

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

New Solutions to your Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 6TH AT 11:00AM
Ask yourself… • Has your condition affected every part of your life? • Have you tried “everything” (Anodyne therapy, physical therapy, Lyrica®, Neurotin®, or other medications) without getting the results you want? • Do you suffer with other secondary symptoms such as falling, dexterity, muscle atrophy, etc.? • Would you rather ix the underlying problem rather than cover it up with drugs?
Topics to be discussed • What is and what are the main causes for Peripheral Neuropathy • Diabetes & Peripheral Neuropathy • If you are taking “statin” drugs - what your doctor doesn’t tell you could hurt you • If your nerves are damaged what does that mean for the rest of your body • Why your lab results do not tell the whole story • How you can live pain free with a clinically proven program
Additional therapies may include: oxygen, vibration, spinal decompression, cold laser therapy along with brain balance therapies to create a layered approach to “wake up” the nerves so they can function again and re-educate nerve pathways that have gone “hay-wire”. Dr. Kelenyi says, “Our solutions are non-drug, non-surgical approaches, that are researched based and based on prior clinical success. The reason we achieve excellent outcomes is because we take both a metabolic and neurological approach in our program.” She says it’s a very rewarding way of practicing. “We get chronically ill people coming from all over the Chicagoland area, even out of state, to our clinic. The most important thing for these patients is results. We get results.”

Mustangs shift focus to postseason By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com DARIEN – Jacob Baker’s actions spoke louder than words Friday night. The Downers Grove South senior running back huddled his teammates on offense after the Mustangs lost 7-0 against Hinsdale South and delivered a simple message. The Mustangs are still headed to the playoffs despite the loss, but they will need a better effort on offense to sustain a long playoff run. “Absolutely you’re frustrated when you don’t put any points on the board against a team you fell you’re physically on the same level with,” Baker said. “As as senior, I told my teammates that regardless

I’m going to give 100 percent in practice and in everything I do because this could be my last week of high school football. “I’m going to give 100 percent and I know my teammates are going to do the same.” Baker carried the load on offense for the Mustangs (6-3) on Friday, accounting for 100 of 151 yards on offense, but it wasn’t enough. The visitors’
lone drive into the red zone ended with a fumble and they struggled to move the ball against the Hornets. “The kids played hard,” Downers Grove South head coach Mark Molinari said. “We just cannot move the ball consistently. I thought we played well defensively. They were averaging 29 points per game and we gave up seven.” Heading into the firstround Class 8A playoff game against Simeon this weekend, Molinari said the loss against Hinsdale South won’t linger. “We’re going to flush this one behind us and learn from it,” Molinari said. “We’re not going to dwell on it. We have to get a five game winning streak to win state. We’ve already had one this year, so let’s do it again.”

SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA DOWNERS GROVE – A productive passing performance from quarterback David Edwards was not enough to bring the Old Oaken Bucket back to Downers Grove North. In the 80th battle for possession of the traveling trophy Friday, the senior quarterback went 14-of-24 for 168 yards and threw for a touchdown, but the Trojans fell to rival Hinsdale Central 34-18. Edwards also scored on a 1-yard run in the third quarter. Hinsdale Central has won the past eight meetings between the two schools, and leads the all time series 46-313. With the loss, Downers Grove North finished the season with a 3-6 overall record, going 2-4 in the West Suburban Silver conference and failing to qualify for the playoffs for the first time in three seasons.

Redwings rout Spartans, ready for playoff opener
LISLE – Benet’s Brad Sznajder saved one of his best performances for the final week of the season. The Redwing running
back ran roughshod over the Marian Catholic defense on Friday, totaling 209 yards and three touchdowns, and powering Benet to a comfortable 66-7 victory. It was the third game this season that Sznajder rushed for more than 200 yards. Fellow running back Ricky Schueller ran for 30 yards and two scores, while sophomore quarterback Jack Sznajder added a rushing touchdown and a pair of passing touchdowns for the Redwings, who jumped out to a 45-7 lead before halftime. Although Benet (6-3, 4-3) would have qualified for an at-large postseason berth with 43 points, the win assured the Redwings of their fourth 7A playoff appearance in five years. Benet enters the postseason as a six seed, and will face third seeded Hinsdale Central at 2 p.m. Saturday at Hinsdale Central, 5500 Grant Street. If the Redwings pull off an upset, they will face the winner of Downers Grove South and Simeon in the second round.

Suburban Life ATHLETE OF THE WEEK JACOB BAKER Downers Grove South Senior | Football Why Baker was selected: Baker was the Mustangs’ workhorse in the regular season finale, carrying the ball 23 times for 79 yards and catching three passes for 21 yards. Switching positions is never an easy task, but Downers Grove South’s Jacob Baker has made it look easy on the field. A linebacker last season, Baker has been the Mustangs’ primary running back this season and a spark for the offense. Baker was the workhorse Friday against Hinsdale South as he touched the ball on 26 of South’s 39 plays. Baker, the Sears Appliance & Hardware Athlete of the Week, spoke with Suburban Life sports editor Jason Rossi about his workload at running back and the Mustangs’ season so far as they get set for the playoffs.

Can the Bears’ season be saved?
Bears general manager Phil Emery and coach Marc Trestman met the media to answer questions on the day after the Bears’ 51-23 loss to the New England Patriots and expressed a firm belief the season could be saved. Trestman explained things will get better after the bye, “Because it shows up that we can get it done. These are things that are correctable. “Our ability to create some turnovers will help us. Our ability to match up better will help us. I’ve seen this happen over time after a bye week, where teams find themselves. “And I feel confident that we’re going to find our way through this and get back in a position where we are playing more consistently, to where we are playing the kind of game we played against Atlanta, that we played against San Francisco.” It is, however, exactly that kind of answer that creates more questions than confidence. The Falcons are one of the worst teams in the league, and the Bears were awful against the 49ers for three quarters and aren’t in that game if San Francisco doesn’t commit 16 penalties and four
CHICAGO FOOTBALL.COM Hub Arkush bad turnovers. Emery analyzed Jared Allen’s play to date. “When I watch him on tape, I don’t see that he lacks quickness or speed. He’s made several rundown plays from the backside. Jared got the quarterback [Brady] on the ground three times after his release. Obviously those aren’t sacks. In terms of the common relationship with his age, I don’t see that he lost speed and quickness.” I don’t know what Jared Allen has left and I’m not disputing what Emery is seeing on tape. But what good are pressures or hits when Brady was 30 of 35 and four of his five incompletions were drops. So he was this close to perfect with 354 yards, five touchdowns and no sacks. Where is the upside so far from the addition of Allen? Emery said this about why Jay Cutler still struggles with certain fundamentals. “In the past, he was better

“In the past, he was better than everybody around him, and when you’re better than everybody around you, you’re pressed to make plays. ...

than everybody around him, and when you’re better than everybody around you, you’re pressed to make plays. Coming out of Vanderbilt, some of his things from a technical standpoint were concerning, in terms of coming off the back foot, protecting the football. Jay, like a lot of players in that position, has a little bit of a gun-slinger personality in terms of, ‘I want to be the guy making the plays.’ He trusts his arm. Those are habits. Habits are hard to improve.” Really? Then why did he just guarantee Cutler $54 million over this and the next two seasons? Trestman said of Cutler “his leadership’s been at a premium.” Since leadership has been
IT’S ALL ABOUT DRIVE
such a hot topic lately, I asked Trestman if he could explain what he meant by that and he responded, “Every day it starts with him and how he comes into this building. “His work ethic is exemplary. How he practices is exemplary. We have tremendous practices here. We have very good competition here. That starts not only with Jay but with a lot of guys in our locker room that have played a lot of football. “It starts with Jay in that manner because he does set the tone as most quarterbacks do in terms of how a team works and his work ethic is second to none in the building.” Those practices and compe-
tition have yielded a 3-5 football team. I didn’t ask about his work ethic. Does that explain leadership to you? Let me be clear. Cutler is not what’s wrong with the Bears, he is just a piece of a much bigger puzzle. Emery and Trestman are guys it would be easy to pull for and many of you would really like to see them succeed. But after listening to them Monday, I’m afraid I came away with a lot more questions than I did answers, or hope.
