Heroin epidemic sweeping DuPage County, authorities say By ED MCMENAMIN emcmenamin@shawmedia.com Heroin deaths have spiked in 2013, but county officials said the night of Nov. 18, that the issue still hasn’t received the attention it warrants or deserves. “I can tell you that I’ve been very frustrated,” DuPage County Coroner Dr. Richard Jorgenson said at a heroin forum Monday. “I think we’re hiding our heads in the sand. “We have to address this at a young age, and we have to admit that we have a problem in DuPage County.” Jorgenson was joined by DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin and Robert Crown Center Interim Director Joan Olson at the forum, hosted by state Reps. Patti Bellock and Sandy Pihos at Good Samaritan Hospital in Downers Grove. There have been 42 heroin-related deaths in DuPage County so far this year, already surpassing the entire 2012 total of 38. Overdose victims this

It’s in all ages, all municipalities and all socioeconomic groups.” The panel spoke to a crowd of more than 50 who gathered at the hospital, including con-

cerned parents, healthcare professionals and family members of overdose victims. Audrey Albright of Lombard lost her son to a heroin overdose in October 2012, she said. “We do not want any families to go through what we experienced,” she said. “We are living with half a heart every day.

SIPPY CUPS AND CAVITIES Q: How do sippy cups affect my child’s dental health? A: The sippy cup is unquestionably a convenience for busy moms who don’t have time to walk around behind a toddler cleaning up spilled juice and water and changing little shirts saturated with drink. All too often, though, a child is left with a cup in his hands for long periods, like during a nap or at bedtime. Unless the cup is being used at meal time, it should be filled only with water. Even milk, formula and fruit juice contain sugar. A child who has at-will access to his sippy cup can be bathing his young teeth in sugar. Offer alternatives to water, but only at meal time. Saliva is the mouth’s natural cleansing agent, washing away food particles and neutralizing production of the acid that can cause cavities. Saliva production increases when a child or adult eats a meal. And we understand that meal time for a youngster may be more than an adult’s three times a day. Finally, schedule regular visits with a pediatric dentist to help keep your child cavity-free. Research has shown that about a third of toddlers with tooth decay used sippy cups. In addition to the danger of tooth decay, toddlers are not especially stable on their feet. Falling with a sippy cup in his or her mouth can cause damage to a youngster’s teeth. Talk with your dentist or pediatric dentist about ways to keep your toddler’s mouth healthy.

brated his 23rd birthday [Tuesday], and I’ll sing happy birthday tomorrow in front of his urn. And I’ll release a balloon to heaven for him.” Jorgenson and Berlin said many addicts start with prescription painkillers such as Vicodin or Oxycontin, and when those pills run out, it’s easier to feed the opiate addiction with heroin. A tenth of a gram of heroin sells for about $10 on the street, he said. Contributing to the addictive quality of heroin and the number of overdoses is an increasing purity in the drug on the street. Most heroin was only about 4 percent pure 30 or 40 years ago, he said. Now, users can drive to the west side of Chicago and buy heroin with a purity of about 35 percent. The biggest message from all the speakers was to speak to children and educate them on the dangers of the drug. Berlin also encouraged families to dispose of unused painkillers before they fall into the hands

of children, and to make sure any child prescribed painkillers by a doctor or dentist is only taking the recommended dosage. “When people get prescribed prescription drugs, you usually get maybe 30 pills,” Berlin said. “Most people use maybe a third of those. And what’s happening with the rest of those, they’re ending up in your medicine cabinet where kids have access to those.” He said that a few years ago, the entire county would see maybe five or six felony heroin cases a year. But this year, out of 185 felony drug possession cases, 57 of those were for heroin, and 26 were for prescription pills. Only cocaine exceeded heroin, with 66 felony cases so far in 2013, Berlin said. Despite the number of arrests and increased focus by law enforcement, Berlin said heroin is not a problem the county can “arrest and prosecute our way out of.” “The system is simply not set up for it and it can not handle these types of numbers,” he said. “And when you’re dealing with addicts, sending them to prison simply doesn’t work, you’re not curing the addiction.” Berlin pointed to DuPage County’s drug court, which seeks to rehabilitate drug users instead of incarcerating them, as a step in the right direction. He said only 8 percent of offenders who complete the drug court process go on to commit another felony within three years, compared with 30 percent of convicts who go through the regular court system. He and Jorgenson also pointed to two new laws in Illinois as positive steps. One gives immunity to drug users who may be holding narcotics when they call 911 to save an overdosing friend. If the caller has less than 3 grams of drugs, police will not press charges for possession. A second new law allows healthcare professionals to distribute Naloxone, a heroin overdose antidote, to anyone who requests the drug. “Sometimes we have to think outside the box,” Jorgenson said.

WESTMONT – With thousands of people expected to be downtown Westmont this weekend, Saturday is set up to be a day all about fun, family activities and some shopping sprinkled in. Along with the Holly Days opening ceremonies, Westmont will also be celebrating the nationwide campaign Small Business Saturday. The idea behind Small Business Saturday is to think about shopping and dining at local merchants, according to Larry Forssberg, Executive Director with the Westmont Chamber of Commerce and Tourism Bureau. “When you shop locally, a greater percentage of the dollars stay in the community,” Forssberg said. “And when you invest in your community, you’re invest-

ing your family.” While Holly Days will be offering an abundance of Christmas-themed family events, the downtown businesses and restaurants will also be offering similar shopping attractions. “People can relax, shop and have some fun. It all fits together so nicely,” Forssberg said. Small Business Saturday sends an important message during one of the key shopping times throughout the year, he said. “We just want to encourage folks to come out and shop, dine and discover,” Forssberg said. “It’s a wonderful Westmont experience.” The Chamber of Commerce and Tourism Bureau will be posting online coupons throughout the week for local business and restaurants as well, he said.

For more information on Rachel’s Challenge, visit www. rachelschallenge.org.

Students were given a presentation as part of the program on Nov. 19 that discussed Scott’s life, ethics and goals, including her theory that if one person went out of the way to be compassionate, it would result in a chain reaction. Students also discussed steps to take to make new students feel welcome and have a sense of belonging. The Climate Committee, composed of teachers, staff, administrators and parents, had been discussing how to tackle bullying in a positive way for some time, according to Jonak, a committee member. He said the idea to begin working with Rachel’s Challenge started a few months

ago. “It was a long process and something we’ve worked hard on but we’re really excited,” Jonak said. “We think it’s an amazing challenge.” Jonak said teachers were trained during an institute day with a three-hour long presentation prior to the program presentation last week. “It’s not just a one and done deal,” Jonak said. “It’s more about continuing with the challenge and come up with different steps [for students].” Along with the presentation, Westmont High School and Westmont Junior High School students will form a group called Friends of Rachel. The group will be open enrollment for any student who wants to join and will take an active role in helping students become more caring and respectful. “You can always be proactive and there’s always room for improvement,” Westmont

High School Assistant Principal Kevin Weck said. Weck said the high school is “pumped” about the program. “It’s a positive culture and takes a way from the negative idea of bullying,” Weck said. “It has a twist on it and it doesn’t just have to stop when the school bell rings – it could be a life lesson.” After introducing the challenge to the students during the school day, the district hosted the presentation Nov. 19 for the entire community. Jonak said about 100 community members attended. Now, while the schools are beginning their journey with Rachel’s Challenge, Jonak said the next step is bringing the message to the entire Westmont community. “I [want to] challenge the community,” Jonak said. “It’s not just about the kids and teachers but i challenge the community to accept Rachel’s Challenge as well.”

Standard Market to host holiday celebration WESTMONT – Standard Market will hold a holiday celebration this weekend. Santa and his reindeer will be at the store, 333 E. Ogden Ave., from 3 to 6 p.m. Saturday. A professional photographer will provide complimentary photos of children with Santa. The event will also include hot cocoa and warm adult beverages for sale. The celebration will have gingerbread cookie decorating for kids, beverage samples for adults and holiday food samples for the entire family. The Westmont High School choir will perform during a Christmas tree lighting to close the festivities. For more information, contact Standard Market at 630-3667030 or visit www.standardmarket.com.

WESTMONT – Westmont schools are taking a stance against bullying by implementing a program with a positive twist. The Climate Committee of Westmont Community Unit School District 201 brought Rachel’s Challenge – a program created in honor of Rachel Joy Scott who was killed in the 1999 Columbine shootings – to district schools Nov. 19. “This is just a young lady who had a very powerful and simple message,” said John Jonak, principal of Westmont Junior High. “We just need to be decent to one another.” Rachel’s Challenge is a series of empowering programs that are based around the writings and life of 17-yearold Rachel Joy Scott. She was the first student killed in the Columbine shootings, according to the program’s website.

Area gathers supplies for tornado victims SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA DOWNERS GROVE – Residents throughout Downers Grove organized relief efforts to help central Illinois tornado victims. Several tornadoes cut through the midwest Nov. 17, damaging thousands of homes and killing six people in Illinois. Washington, a small town outside of Peoria, was one of the hardest hit towns during the storm. On Friday, Randall Park neighborhood residents filled two buses with donations. For five hours, area residents were invited to bring donations of food, water, clothes, batteries, personal hygiene

products and other items to put in the two buses. Cook Illinois Corporation donated the buses, which were driven to the Roland Manor Baptist Church in Washington. In downtown Downers Grove, Beauty on the Main, 4934 Main St., filled a truck with donations dropped off by the community. The truck left for central Illinois Tuesday morning. Students in Downers Grove pitched in as well. On Friday, students at Fairmount School, 6036 Blodgett, had a Hats for the Red Cross fundraiser, to bring in donations for victims of both the midwest tornadoes and the typhoon in the Philippines.

Paperworks in Downers Grove to close this week By ED MCMENAMIN emcmenamin@shawmedia.com DOWNERS GROVE – A Downers Grove staple for more than 11 years, Paperworks owner Ellen Arnold announced she will close the business this week. “I’ve been thinking about it for some time, and we decided that this was the time,” Arnold said. “We’ve had a difficult year with illness. And my husband is retirement

age, and I’m nearing it so we decided this is it.” She said all business furnishings are for sale, and all products and services are marked down 50 percent or more until it closes for good, likely today, she said last week. Arnold was a real estate agent when she started teaching herself desktop publishing about 14 years ago to make the fliers for homes on the market, she said. The business grew from

there, and then about 11 years ago she moved the business from her home to the current location at 1010 Curtiss St. She said she’ll miss the creativity and growing in her skills helping people design and produce invitations and other paper products, “and having repeat customers and getting to know them.” During her time downtown, she said she’s noticed Curtiss Street’s business momentum and energy build.

NOTICE OF PROPOSED PROPERTY TAX INCREASE FOR THE VILLAGE OF DOWNERS GROVE

“Curtiss has really come into its own and it’s a great street to have a business,” she said. The building owner has found a new tenant to replace Paperworks when it moves out, but she said she wasn’t authorized to give the name of the new business. Paperworks’ slogan is “the store that makes you want to have a party,” and stocks a large selection of notes, stamps, embossers, stationary, envelopes and printing

services to help hosts make it happen. Arnold said the majority of her business came from weddings. She said she plans to remain in town after she closes the store, but head to warmer climates for the cold months. She said she hopes to do more volunteer work in her retirement. “I’ve always loved Downers Grove,” she said. “Living here and selling real estate here, and having a business.”

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.

Call for your

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.

Family Shelter Service offers safety, support during holidays At holiday time, people affected by abuse especially need the kindness of strangers, for this is when they are at their most vulnerable – cut off from everything and sometimes everyone they are close to. Family Shelter Service was founded 37 years ago to address the unique needs of these individuals both at holiday time COMMUNITY and throughout the year. VOICE For many of our clients, Maureen staying in a shelter during the McGuire holidays can be one of the most difficult times. Our client, “Angela,” fled a violent home with her two young children shortly before the holidays. In the shelter, with time to reflect on the tragedy of her abusive relationship, she became overwhelmed. To help her heal from the trauma, Angela underwent individual counseling and also participated in Family Shelter’s Mom and Kids Support Group with her children. As the holiday approached, Family Shelter supporters and former clients began to stop by with donations and gifts for the women and children in shelter at the annual Holiday Shoppe event – this year Dec. 5, 6 and 9. One woman told Angela that she had been in the same situation at one time and that she couldn’t stop thinking about the mothers and children who would spend their holiday in a shelter. Angela was touched and moved by the generosity of these people who didn’t know her. She and her children were invited to participate in Family Shelter’s annual Home Sweet Home event – this year on Dec. 7 at the Abbington in Glen Ellyn – a community gingerbread decorating event featuring storybook characters and Santa Claus. Other mothers the in shelter came as well and she found herself celebrating with people who understood her experience better than anyone. Angela later commented that it was the most tranquil holiday she’d ever had. While we always hope that our shelter will be empty this holiday, we know it will not. Domestic battery is the most prevalent crime in Illinois, according to the Illinois Crime Commission. It is critical that we all participate in making the issue known in our community so that another family won’t have to spend their holiday in a shelter, depending on the kindness of strangers.

Don’t forget the arts. Westview Hills Middle School art teacher Josh Vance sure hasn’t, nor has the Maercker District 60 Board of Education. Josh has organized a local Empty Bowl fundraiser for the school’s arts program for the past six years. Kudos to both for their efforts. Big box retail and e-commerce stores are going to get their sales this holiday season, so don’t forget about “the little guys.” This Saturday is Small Business Saturday, a day where shoppers are encouraged to patronize the Westmont area local brick-and-mortar shops that keep business – and tax dollars – local.

8LETTERS Resident responds on gay marriage issue To the Editor, In response to Mr. Lela’s argument against marriage equality: Equal rights is a flimsy argument? Mr. Lela, there was a time when people argued that women didn’t have the right to vote in this country. I would imagine their arguments were very similar to yours. People believed that women were too emotional and incapable of making sound, political decisions. People believed the human race would die out because women would stop marrying and having children if they were allowed to vote. There was a time where people believed in racial segregation, that it was protecting the rights of whites, without bringing harm to African-Americans.

Those arguments were just as absurd and demeaning as your argument against marriage equality. I’m bisexual, and have been married to a heterosexual man for 21 years. I have two amazing children. I actually conceived and gave birth to them, as any other woman. Deviant? Funny, I never considered myself as such. Pedophiles inflict harm on children, homosexuals do not. I’ve had the unpleasant experience of having four sex offenders in my life, three as a child. I find it offensive when you attempt to put myself or any other person of LGBT in the same class as the men who raped and violated me. I speak out on sex offenders and try to change laws pushing for more accountability for the damage they do. Lydia Geduldig Westmont

Too many vacant storefronts in Westmont

in our water roll-off program in which they’re considering based on the rain water in the stormwater system. It’s just a shame that we’re wasting money on employees that aren’t performing.

Westmont stormwater fee a tax This is a response to Westmont’s proposed stormwater fee. This is a tax, not a so-called fee. Westmont homeowners pay enough and are overburdened by taxes already. You are modeling this tax after Downers Grove’s. We are not Downers Grove. We need to stop raising taxes and making new taxes when everyone has tightened their belts. There are more people on government aid than are working in Illinois. What next? New taxes for snow plowing, road maintenance, street sweeping? Why should property owners pay for a very small percentage of people who elected to buy houses in low-lying areas? That’s why flood insurance is available. Why not put a fee on new homes that are being built that tax the sewer system? Why not get the community development team to work and get Westmont some significant tax dollars instead of small mom and pop stores that are usually closed after year? Signed, a very concerned and already overtaxed Westmont homeowner.

I am a resident of Westmont, and Saturday, Nov. 30 is Small Business Saturday in which people are encouraged to shop locally with their minority and mom and pop private businesses. Incentives are received and money stays within the community. I am appalled when I drove through Westmont knowing the committee we have to develop businesses in our community on how many stores are vacant and available anywhere from the tracks north to Ogden Avenue. Certainly this is not a sign of the times as Hinsdale, Downers Grove and Naperville seem to be thriving. I think we need to consider Against stormwater fee major changes to bring the revenue in that we need. Maybe I’ve lived in a subdivision in Westmont for 16 years. The vilthen we won’t receive a fee

lage has refused to do anything about all of the flooding and the water that we have in our yard and neighbors yards, et cetera, but now they’re going to charge us. Another way to get money. Just like the government – wanting to take your money and not do anything for it.

Clean the drains? The village of Downers Grove is advertising in our little Village Corner that they want the fee payers to help keep the storm grates free and clear of leaves and other debris, but excuse me, isn’t that why we pay a fee for stormwater management? Call the village or attend a village council meeting and demand they keep the drains clean, seeing how we’re paying for that service.

Sick of Toronto mayor I, for one, am getting a little sick of all the slamming of Toronto Mayor Rob Ford. Why don’t we discuss when our mayor of the capitol of the United States of America was caught smoking crack. Remember Marion Barry? Some of you weren’t alive then, but I remember it quite well. And they practically just slapped him on the wrist, and next thing you know he’s running for office again and gets put back in. Isn’t that a slap in the face tor all American people? I know some states you can be elected for office as a felon, but come on let’s hear a little bit about him and hear more about that situation.

John Calonkey Gray, age 91, died in Naples, Florida, on Wednesday morning, November 13, 2013, of cardiac failure. He was born in Downers Grove, Illinois on October 27, 1922 to John Gray and Josephine Julia Gray (Calonkey). Raised in Downers Grove, he made lifelong friends in the town where his father was a conductor on the Burlington Railroad and his mother tutored mathematics. He played baritone in the high school band. He began college, but enlisted in 1942, assigned to the 719th Squadron of the 449th Bomb Group. He was a true military hero, rescuing other crew members and then parachuting to safety himself from their crippled B-24 Liberator, “Mighty Mouse.” Six other crew members were lost that day, near Potenza, Italy January 15, 1944. John was captured by the Nazis several days later, while trying to return to the Allied lines, and was a POW for 16 grueling months, in Stalag Luft I. A photo of him and another prisoner peeling potatoes, is in the Air Corps Museum in Dayton, Ohio. He and the others were liberated by the Russians on May 15, 1945. He returned to Downers Grove where he married his childhood sweetheart, Dorothy Jean Kidwell and they attended the University of Michigan. He received his degree, Bachelors in Accounting and Masters in Business. Jean was voted “Best Legs on Campus.” They lived their entire married life in Downers Grove and raised three sons, John Kidwell, Christopher Arthur and Michael Scott. He initially worked for ScovellWellington CPAs until his career with Morton Salt Company in Chicago, which lasted several decades as their Systems Analyst and Comptroller. He retired to Naples, Florida after Jean's death, and also survived the deaths of two subsequent wives, Rosemary Norris and Muriel Martinek. He is survived by his son, John K. Gray and Kathryn (Horton); and Grandsons, John T. Gray (Jessica Johnson), Justin A. Gray (Lisa Asmus) and Seth T. Gray (Megan Griffin); Son, Michael S. Gray and Deborah (Miller) and their sons, Michael A. Gray (Nicole Martin), Nathan C. Gray and Collin J. Gray. Also Great Grandchildren, Dayna, Hannah, Tessa and Lucas. His past 15 years in Naples have been spent happily with friend and companion in sobriety, Shirley Rankin. He remained a rabid U of M

I’m calling out the village of Downers Grove. Apparently, on Veterans Day, the village of Downers Grove didn’t feel that that was a holiday. So on all their parking signs that said “No parking, except Saturdays, Sundays or holidays” you would get a ticket if you’re parked there. When I went to the police department I was told by a dispatcher it must be a mistake. So I filled out a form and a police officer called me back. He had to look it up to see if it was a holiday. The chief of police then advised me that Downers Grove doesn’t recognize Veterans Day as an actual holiday as it is not on their approved list of holidays. But the day after Thanksgiving and the day before Christmas are considered holidays according to Downers Grove. I think this is outrageous that they don’t honor our vets and consider a federal holiday an actual parking day.

MYSTERY DINER Restaurant reviews

Scarletti’s: Cozy atmosphere, comfort food DOWNERS GROVE – With its quaint setting and madefrom-scratch fare, Scarletti’s Italian Kitchen is a great escape, whether it be from wintry temps, a stressful workday or the craze of holiday shopping. A colleague and I headed out to the downtown Downers Grove restaurant on a recent weeknight. Once we stepped into the cozy restaurant, any leftover frustration from the rush hour traffic and chilly weather was replaced with ease from the warmly lit atmosphere and tasty scents wafting from Scarletti’s kitchen. The attractive dining room makes for an intimate setting, whether you’re with a significant other, family, friends or a business partner, and overlooks the city right along Main Street with large windows. Once seated, we soon were greeted with Scarletti’s customary basket of bread and marinara dipping sauce. It was a nice change-up from the standard bread-and-oil setups at most Italian restaurants, and nearly made for an appetizer on its own. Still, we had to try the bruschetta appetizer, which proved a good call with its combination of fresh tomato and basil, prepared with a balsamic drizzle for added style and flavor points. For our main courses, my colleague, in the mood for a hearty, home-cooked meal, opted for the Chianti Braised Short Ribs, an interesting selection he was very happy with. The boneless short ribs are slathered in a red wine reduction sauce, served on a bed of whipped potatoes and topped with a seasonal vegetable puree. I went with a classic that’s a must-try for me whenever I dine at an Italian restaurant that’s new to me: the Chicken Parmesan. The entree had very generous portions of chicken breast and a side of pasta. The chicken was tender and its marinara sauce proved a perfect complement. If you’re partial

Can Bears’ defense stop Adrian Peterson? Hub Arkush

For the most part, things have not gone well for the Minnesota Vikings since the Bears last saw them in Soldier Field the second week of the season. But after all kinds of turmoil at the quarterback position because of injury and the surprising signing of Josh Freeman, who then failed miserably in his one start before suffering a concussion, the Vikings look an awful lot like the club the Bears barely got by in Week 2 with their 31-30 victory on a last-minute touchdown pass from Jay Cutler to Martellus Bennett. Christian Ponder appears to be firmly re-entrenched as the starting quarterback, and Adrian Peterson will be coming off one of his best games of the season in Green Bay, where the Vikings played the Packers to a tie in overtime.

Most of the biggest questions in this matchup will be about the Bears’ mindset after the egg they laid in St. Louis on Sunday, and whether they have any hope at all of slowing Peterson with the worst run defense in the NFL. Peterson rushed for 146 yards on 32 carries and a touchdown in five quarters of football, and while he hasn’t approached his 2012 heroics, he was still the NFL’s second-leading rusher before the Redskins-49ers game Monday night with 997 total yards, a 4.4 average and 10 touchdowns. Ponder has been a threat on the ground with 34 scrambles for 151 yards and four touchdowns, and he’s completing 64.5 percent of his passes for a 78.7 passer rating, seven touchdowns and nine interceptions. While his passing numbers on the season don’t scare you, he did complete 21 of 30 throws for 233 yards and a 103.9 passer rating Sunday at Lambeau. Greg Jennings and Jerome Simpson have been up and down, but are reliable targets for Ponder when the

Vikings are playing well. Cordarrelle Patterson is a factor in the kick return game, but is still struggling to find himself as a receiver. On defense, the Vikings have struggled all year. They are 30th in total defense, 14th versus the run but 29th against the pass. They are 23rd in interception percentage and 26th rushing the quarterback. On the defensive line, Jared Allen and Kevin Williams are former all pros who are both still capable of having big games, but don’t do it on a regular basis any more. LeTroy Guion and Brian Robison still are starting as well, and this is the unit that helped key the Vikings playoff run in 2012, but they have all struggled this year. Chad Greenway is still the guy you have to identify on Minnesota’s defense, and he’ll make plays all over the field, but Erin Henderson in the middle and Marvin Mitchell on the weak side are guys the Bears should be able to exploit. Josh Robinson and Chris Cook are third- and second-round draft picks,

respectively, on the corners who are both athletic and fast enough but terribly inconsistent, which is why this team is 29th in pass defense. The safeties, Jamarca Sanford and Andrew Sendejo, aren’t bad forcing the run, but do struggle in coverage. At the end of the day for the Bears, this one comes down to what are they going to do about Peterson? After going off for a 140 on the ground week nine against the Cowboys, Peterson had been held in check by the Redskins and Seahawks before exploding again in Green Bay. The unfortunate fact is if the Vikings climb on Peterson’s back, there is little the Bears will be able to do but get into a shootout. The good news is that Josh McCown continues to flourish in Marc Trestman’s offense, and the Bears have a lot more weapons on offense than Minnesota, giving them an excellent chance to prevail by piling up points, which is exactly what happened the last time they got together.

THANKSGIVING DAY PREVIEW Packers at Lions, 11:30 a.m. This game not only features several intriguing fantasy matchups, it also is pivotal to the NFC North. The big

Stafford should be productive against the Packers’ 18thranked defense. The Packers equally are mediocre versus the run and the pass, so start Reggie Bush.

Raiders at Cowboys, 3:30 p.m. The late-afternoon game should be a bonanza for Tony Romo and Dez Bryant. The Raiders’ defense ranks No. 8 against the run, but a dismal No. 25 versus the pass. It would be a surprise if Romo didn’t crest 300 yards and throw at least two touchdown passes, probably more. Jason Witten also is a must start. Terrance Williams has disappeared, and

all other Cowboys’ receivers would seem to be afterthoughts at this point. Although the Raiders are respectable against the run – sticking with the idea that this will be a shootout – start DeMarco Murray and Dan Bailey. The Cowboys actually have the weaker defense in this contest, ranking last in points and passing yards. Assuming Darren McFadden will be in street clothes, Rashard Jennings is a great play. If Denarius Moore returns, he is a solid play. If not, take a close look at Rod Streater.

Steelers at Ravens, 7:30 p.m. Two good, but not great, defenses face off in the night game. Ben Roethlisberger has averaged 22 fantasy points over the past four weeks. He has been up and down, however. He might be looking at something around 15 points this week. The Steelers still drive fantasy owners crazy

with their running-back rotation, but Le’Veon Bell is clearly the best option. This week, he’s probably looking at 10 to 14 points. Antonio Brown is a top-five fantasy receiver and an obvious play. After Brown, it gets dicey. Jerricho Cotchery had emerged during weeks 9-11, but he went without a reception against the Browns. After lighting up the Bears in week 11, Ray Rice reverted to his 2013 form against the Jets (16 carries for 30 yards). Although the Jets are stout against the run, it’s time to look at Rice as a No. 3 fantasy back or flex option. In smaller leagues, he’s probably not worth a roster spot. After kicker Justin Tucker and receiver Torrey Smith, the Ravens do not offer much in this game. Given his recent production, it’s hard to recommend Joe Flacco. Call it a gut instinct: He scores 20-plus points against Pittsburgh.

The bye weeks are over, but week 13 presents a new challenge for fantasy owners: Three Thursday games. Ah, Thanksgiving! Nothing beats spending time with loved ones, enjoying a fine feast … and getting a jump on your fantasy opponent! I’m not suggesting that Aunt Mildred’s discussions aren’t riveting, but it’s always fun to have players going on Thanksgiving. A closer look at Thursday’s games will help you determine which players can help your team and those who are likely to be … turkeys (ouch).

question, of course, is whether Aaron Rodgers will play. As of Monday morning, his status was uncertain. Matt Flynn came to the rescue last week against Minnesota, taking over for a struggling Scott Tolzien. Obviously, the Packers are a stronger play if it’s Rodgers, but either quarterback should produce. Flynn seemed to have a connection with Jarrett Boykin, who hauled in five receptions and a touchdown in the second half. The Lions’ defense is ranked No. 28 against the pass. Boykin, James Jones and Jordy Nelson are solid starts. Kicker Mason Crosby also is in for a good day. It might be tougher for Eddie Lacy – Detroit is No. 4 against the run – but we still like the talented rookie this week. The Lions are among the league’s dumbest teams. They also are one of the most talented. Calvin Johnson is an obvious start and Matthew

Westmont’s Danny LoGiurato handles the ball in a game against Montini last season. LoGiurato is expected to handle the bulk of the Sentinels’ point guard duties this year.

Sentinels plan to ‘send a message’ to conference By ALEX SOULIER

Westmont Sentinels

asoulier@shawmedia.com WESTMONT – The Westmont boys basketball team can hear the chatter resonating from opposing coaches and players and some media outlets. After graduating five players from last year’s roster, including leading scorer Jean Pietrzak and experienced point guard Kris Pierce, the general consensus outside the Sentinels’ locker room is that the upcoming basketball season will mark a rebuilding period, according to head coach Craig Etheridge. However, the players and

Head coach: Craig Etheridge 2012-13 record: 15-13 overall Next game: Wednesday at Ridgewood Battle at the Ridge Tournament Top returners: Adam Berg sr. F John Kelly sr. G/F Montraveous Little sr. G Danny LoGiurato sr. G Greg Pietrzak sr. F coaches respectfully disagree with those prevailing preseason predictions. “We have heard the rumblings that we are supposed to be in the bottom three of

the conference, but I’ll be surprised if that’s how things pan out,” Etheridge said. “This team has a good group of boys and they want to go out and send a message.” While Etheridge believes that the Sentinels’ size and athleticism match up well with their Interstate Eight Conference foes, the head coach will mostly play threeguard sets and look to play a quick transition game. Returning seniors Danny LoGiurato, Montraveous Little, John Kelly and Greg Pietrzak will run Etheridge’s uptempo offense. Standing 5-foot-8, LoGiurato’s speed, basketball savvy, tenacity and ball-han-

dling ability more than make up for his lack of size. LoGiurato will man the Sentinels’ point position, and Etheridge wants the ball in his hands whenever possible. “It’s hard to pin-point what he does best,” Etheridge said of LoGiurato. “He is a very gifted athlete – he is our main ball handler and set up man, but he is also great at creating his own shots and driving to the bucket.” Little will mostly line up as Westmont’s off guard. He is mainly a ball handler whose speed and athletic ability make him lethal off the dribble, but Little can also finish and knock down open jumpers.

The team’s primary scoring threat, Pietrzak is a 6-foot-3-inch swing forward who is adept at playing with his back to the basket, but has worked on extending his shot during the offseason, and is now a comfortable 3-point shooter. Last year’s sixth man, John Kelly will rotate between forward and guard, and he garners high praise from the coaches as Westmont’s smartest player and ball handler. Adam Berg and Nikolay Petrov give Westmont some size in the paint while Seth Torrens and Adam Doll will clock valuable minutes coming off the bench.

Boasting a lineup stacked with a bevy of sophomore and junior talent, the Trojans will be looking to reach the .500 mark record-wise for the first time in head coach Jim Thomas’ tenure. While North has historically struggled on the hardwood, Thomas believes that this could be the year that the basketball program turns the corner. “The players had a productive offseason,” Thomas said. “A lot of the boys played AAU ball and there’s a noticeable improvement in their game. We are still a little young, but the skill and dedication are trending upwards.” The Trojans will have to overcome a pair of nagging injuries at the season’s onset, as returning juniors David Edwards and Myles Fairly are not 100 percent healthy. While Edwards remains hampered by a leg injury suffered in the fifth week of the football season, Farley is still recovering from offseason ACL surgery. He is expected to be at full health by early- to mid-December, according to Thomas. The duo will be pivotal to the Trojans’ success. Last season’s second-leading scorer, the 6-foot Farley is a natural in Thomas’ “dribble, drive, motion” motion offense, displaying an uncanny ability to get up the court, break down defenses and slash to the bucket. Edwards, too, is a big man that can get out in transition. The 6-foot-6-inch post player can back up the opposition in the post or extend out and hit shots. Sophomore Matt Mahlke will round out the Downers North low post, giving the Trojans a second back-to-thebasket threat. Devin Blake is another sophomore that will play valuable minutes in the

North lineup. Thomas likes his all-around game and explains that he has limitless potential. “Devin could very well be our best player by the end of the season,” Thomas said. “He has a really nice inside-out game and has a knack for getting to the hole and hitting unorthodox shots.” Junior Colin Kramper and three-sport senior athlete Ray Greco will provide experience and leadership to the Downers Grove North roster. Both are well suited for Thomas’ uptempo offensive game-plan. “Defend, rebound and run – that’s the way we score,” Thomas said. “We want to Matthew Piechalak file photo - mpiechalak@shawmedia.com keep you off the scoreboard, get out in the open court, Downers Grove North’s David Edwards goes up for a shot during a game last season. Edwards is expected then take you to the rim.” to be a mainstay in the post for the Trojans this winter.

Suburban Life ATHLETE OF THE WEEK RYAN CLEVENGER Downers Grove North | Junior | Cross country Why Clevenger was selected: After placing second at both the regional and sectional meets, Clevenger ran a 14:38 and finished seventh at the state race in Peoria to help North take second as a team. Downer Grove North boys cross country coach John Sipple called Ryan Clevenger the team’s most improved runner this season, and Clevenger was seventh at the 3A boys cross country state finals meet in Peoria. Clevenger, the Sears Hardware and Appliance Athlete of the Week, talked with Suburban Life sports reporter Alex Soulier about his first trip to state, improving as an runner and his offseason plans.

What was your experience like at the state finals? It was my first time at state and it was a great experience. There were so many people there – the atmosphere was incredible. Beforehand I was a little nervous, but once the race started, all that tension goes away.

You made an incredible jump in your overall performance this season. What was the key to your success? I was battling anemia last winter, so it was really tough recovering from that. Once I was better physically, I regained my strength and running form. It was the little things that helped me. I started doing weight work, kettle bell exercises, and a lot of routines which helped my fast twitch muscles. I also rested and let my body recover when I felt like I needed a break.

How will you spend your offseason? I just came in 10th at the Nike cross country regionals. Right now, I’m doing some running, but I will soon take some time off and then get ready for the start of track and field.

SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA WESTMONT – St. Louis beckons for the Westmont Wildcats Pee-Wee youth football team. After a deep postseason run in the Chicagoland Youth Football League playoffs, the Wildcats were invited to take part in the National Midwest Gridiron Classic tournament in St. Louis. The tourney starts Friday and runs through Nov. 1. The Wildcats will depart for St. Louis Thanksgiving night and play their first tournament game on Friday. Over 90 teams from throughout the United States and Canada will participate in the tournament, which will be played on several different fields in the St. Louis area. The Wildcats made it to the CYFL semifinals with a 12-6 quarterfinal win over perennial league powerhouse Windy City Dolphins. Westmont received the opening kickoff and then embarked on a long scoring drive that took up most the first quarter. Chaz Hunter followed the blocking of Riley Dorsey, Gabriel Lischalk, Cameron VanHoegarden , Rahshon Murff and Nicolas Gerbasi for some tough yardage at the start of the drive. The 16-play march was capped by Joshua Lumpkin’s 6-yard touchdown run, which gave the Wildcats a 6-0 lead, which stood as the halftime score. The Dolphins took the kick to start the second half and, much like the Wild-

Windy City’s extra point run was stuffed by Hunter, Trevor Hillard and Zach Gacek and the game remained tied at 6-6. The Wildcats’ offense went back on the field midway through the fourth quarter looking to break the deadlock, and they did so in memorable fashion. On a trick play, Elvin Sampson threw a halfback pass to Daniel Janas for 14 yards and a first down at the Windy City 25-yard line. Three plays later, running back Eddie Mills exploded to the right, ran over a Dolphins’ linebacker, and then outran the free safety for a 31-yard touchdown and a 12-6 lead Windy City’s ensuing

drive started at its 45-yard line with 1:47 left in the game. Seth Coyle stopped a reverse attempt for an 8-yard loss on first down. On third down, Gacek sniffed out the Dolphins’ trick play and stopped it for a 4-yard loss. Gerbasi, Murff and Hunter forced an incomplete pass on fourth down, and with 20 seconds to go the Wildcats merely needed to kneel down to secure the 12-6 win. Dorsey was earned the team’s Tank Award as the best blocker in the game. Unfortunately, the Wildcats couldn’t sustain the momentum from their quarterfinal win and fell to the Wildwood Seminoles in the semifinals. They finished the CYFL season with a 7-3 record.

Downers Grove South’s Paul Engo III (right) guards a Hinsdale South player in a game last season. Engo III will handle some of the point guard duties under new head coach Kris Olson this year.

Mustangs’ guards key to successful season By ALEX SOULIER asoulier@shawmedia.com DOWNERS GROVE – Kris Olson’s familiarity with the Downers Grove South boys basketball team should ease his transition to varsity head coach. The former Mustangs’ JV coach climbed the ladder to varsity this past offseason, filling a void left by the recently departed Jay Baum. In his first year as head coach, Olson will try to build upon last season’s 15-12 record and the Mustangs’ trip to the regional championship game. “The transition to varsity has been a relatively smooth one,” Olson said. “I know all

these boys and I have coached most of them at one point. This is a new season – a new experience – and we are looking to improve as a team and get better with every game. “We have a roster that is loaded with seniors and some talented newcomers. The upperclassmen have really asserted themselves in the

preseason and I expect that to carry through to the end of the regular season.” Senior returning guards Paul Engo III and Danny Spinuzza will run the Mustangs’ motion offense. A three-year varsity player, Engo III is a quick, elusive ball handler who displays a consistent knack for driving

to the hoop and finding the open man. Spinuzza – the Mustangs’ starting shooting guard – has made tremendous strides from last season and is a threat to knock down mid- to long-range shots at any time. So far, Olson says that he has been impressed with his backcourt tandem and their ability to handle the offensive and defensive sets. “We ask a lot from our guards,” Olson said. “I count on them to maintain uptempo play – pushing the ball on offense and pressuring the opposition on defense when we run a full court press.” Down low, the Mustangs will rely on of 6-foot-5-inch

freshman TJ Clifford to control the paint. Clifford made significant strides in adjusting to varsity ball during summer workouts and games, and is versatile enough to play with his back to the basket or step out and hit shots. Senior forward Matt Zinnecker saw significant playing time last year and offers another option close to the basket. A trip to St. Charles East’s Ron Johnson Thanksgiving tournament will test the Mustangs right off the bat, and competing at the Proviso West Holiday Tournament will also provide a challenge and will help prepare South to contend in the West Suburban Gold.
