For the past 50 years, Barbara Roake has dedicated countless hours to a local club that may have never formed without her help. Roake is one of the founding members and the first president of the Lisle Woman’s Club, a service organization that works to improve the world both locally and globally. Members help raise money for local charities and scholarships, and also attend monthly meetings to discuss how to help the community, listen to guest speakers and socialize. “It’s a good experience,” said Roake, of Lisle. “As you get older you get tired of doing the same old things, so joining the woman’s club gets you to new outlets.” A member of the Gen-
eral Federation of Women’s Clubs-Illinois and the General Federation of Women’s Clubs, the Lisle club consists of about 40 women ages 35 to 85, Roake said. Both Lisle residents and non-residents are welcome, Roake said, and although all current members are women, men can also join. “We’ll take anybody,” Roake said. “We’re very openminded women.” The Lisle Woman’s Club was formed when a group of about 20 Lisle mothers wanted to open a library in Lisle, Roake said. The same year the club was formed, the women were able to encourage the community to pass a referendum and open the library. Roake, also a trustee for the Lisle Library for 30 years, said the accomplishment is her fondest memory as a club member. “I’m very proud of that
library. The whole club is proud of the library,” Roake said. “It’s a pinnacle part of our community.” Throughout the years, Roake has helped the club participate in many philanthropic events. In 2012, the club helped the Lisle Township Food Pantry by providing Christmas dinner and gifts to seven families. Each year the club also hosts fundraising events to collect money for its scholarships. It provides three to five $500 scholarships to high school students who are either residents of Lisle or a “630” area code, and a $500 scholarship to a woman who is returning to college to complete a degree or pursue a degree. Proceeds from the club’s annual community garden walk fundraiser, during which residents can walk through various gardens in the com-
munity, are used for the scholarship funds, Roake said. This year the fundraiser, the Garden Gait, is scheduled for 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday, June 23. Club members and various businesses throughout the community will sell tickets for the event, Roake said. Roake said she is satisfied with the club’s success and looks forward to new ideas and events. “I’m very, very proud of the fact that we have maintained a high standard and good, strong membership through the years and have done some nice things,” Roake said. The Lisle Woman’s Club meets at 6:30 p.m. the first Wednesday each month at the Lisle Library, 777 Front St., Lisle.

WOODRIDGE — After negotiations to purchase it fell short, the village of Woodridge is pursuing eminent domain to take control of the Janes Plaza Shopping Center, which lies on property where the village and park district hope to build a recreation center. The Woodridge Village Board earlier this month approved plans to attempt to obtain the Janes Plaza Shopping Center, which is within the Janes Avenue Tax Increment Finance District, a TIF district amended last summer to allow TIF dollars to be used to purchase property and develop a rec center in town. On Feb. 14, the Woodridge Village Board approved an ordinance to authorize eminent domain action, with two trust-

Trustee David Pittinger said he is opposed to the idea of putting a government building in the TIF district, saying it will not lead to economic growth, which is the reason the TIF was put into place. He voted against using eminent domain to obtain the property. “Under the definition of economic growth, I find it hard to try to find a way that putting in a park district building equates to economic growth,” Pittinger said. “I have been an advocate of clos-

ing the TIF, and giving those dollars back to the taxing bodies so that they have the opportunity to lower the taxes for all citizens.” Trustee Greg Abbott also voted against the measure. He believes the issue should go before the residents via referendum before the village agrees to participate in the rec center plans. “If we asked the residents if they want to spend $15 million to put up the rec center, they would overwhelmingly reject it,” Abbott said. “The public should be able to have a say on it.” While Pittinger questioned the overall success of the TIF, Rush defends it, saying it has been a benefit to the village. “We did have some success with Waterbury and with public infrastructure improvements in the TIF area,” Rush

said. “The TIF has been a value to the community,” Mays said the village would use some TIF dollars to help relocate those businesses within that mall, even if those businesses choose to move to another community. Village spokesman Jack Knight said the village is empowered under state law to acquire property by eminent domain for public purposes. Through the judicial process, both the village and the property owner have the right to present evidence as to the value of the property and a jury will make a decision, he said. Officials said the village will comply with the procedures required by the Eminent Domain Act and court rules to determine fair market value, and the timeframe for such action is determined by the court.

Downers Grove charity effort lets there be light By BRIAN HUDSON bhudson@shawmedia.com
Online
DOWNERS GROVE — It was a couple years after their trip to the Philippines that John and Nancy Economou came up with their bright idea. After visiting missionaries working in one of that country’s poorest regions — which lacked electricity and running water and where night-time light was provided by dim kerosene lamps — the Downers Grove couple set out to deliver light to those who needed it. Out of that kernel grew Watts of Love, a charity founded last year with the mission to deliver solar-powered lights to those around the world without electricity. The Economou’s efforts paid off this month with a trip back to the Philippines, when they delivered 1,000 of the solar-powered lights to the Filipino island. “The response was enormous. After everything you always hear about the poor, but to go and see it,” Nancy Economou said. “I just thought about our five young boys.” Wherever the lights are delivered, Watts of Love will work with a local nongovernmental organization — both to ensure the lights go to the right people and to follow up afterward, John Economou said. In the case of the Philippines, the missionaries plan to report how the lights affect students’ grades in the area. “We can gauge the impact these things have,” he said. Watts of Love is already planning another trip — Mozambique sometime in between July and December. They’d like to at least match and possibly double their 1,000-light contribution. In that time, they’d also like to make it a self-sustaining nonprofit. (They’ve filed an application for a 501-(c)(3) status.)

John Economou prints off wedding pictures for a bride on her wedding day. During Watts of Love’s trip to the Philippines, John, his wife, Nancy, and brother-in-law Kevin Kuster, shot pictures of couples getting married. For many of them, it was their first time being photographed.
The idea is to wed the nonprofit with the services provided by John Economou’s business, Aureole LED, which installs LED and energy-efficient lighting for new construction and renovations. Retrofitting corporate buildings with LED lights provides energy savings, John Economou said. The Economous hope to entice some businesses to donate a portion of those savings to
the charity. The lights are relatively inexpensive. The lights on the first trip this month were financed by several private donors. They retail for about $43, but the cost was $20 for the charity. By sharing office space with Aureole LED in Lombard, just north of Butterfield Road, they can keep their overhead and administrative costs low.

“Everyone gets something,” Nancy Economou said. “They get their retrofit, they get their savings.” The solar-power light has four settings. The lowest, which was still brighter than a kerosene lamp, can run for 100 hours without a sunlight charge. The other, brighter settings can run for 24, 12 and eight hours. The brightest setting delivers the equivalent to a 4- watt bulb. The light also includes an adapter for a cell phone charger, which can be as crucial. In many parts of the developing world — where 21st century digitization is taking off without as much 20th century infrastructure — cell phones do more than just handle calls. According to a World Bank report published in July, they are also used by individuals for financial transactions and business developments and by governments to deliver services. In the Philippines, the business aspect was a big part of the solar lights’ impact, she said. Nancy Economou recalled one mother who found nothing to do after the sun went down but to wait for bedtime. With the solar light, however, she could put a couple hours into her cottage industry — widdling down bamboo sticks, which she could then sell at the market. After returning the next day, Nancy Economou recalled, she widdled dozens of the skewers. “They doubled their family income in 12 hours,” she said. “It’s exciting, we really saw the direct impact. Sitting here in Downers Grove, we can only think about all the implications, how it can be used.”

TMJ SYNDROME Q: What is TMJ syndrome? A: TMJ stands for the temporomandibular joint. The joint is the hinge where the lower jaw, called the mandible, connects to the upper jaw. Inflammation of the joint, whether it be a chronic or acute condition, can cause severe pain and impair the joint’s operation. This condition is called TMJ syndrome and is one of the most common sources of facial pain. In some cases, the condition can make the jaw lock in either an open or closed position. The condition can also cause stiffness or pain in the shoulders and neck, dizziness and severe headaches. The pain is also noticeable in front of the ears, which is where the joint is. Treatment can include medication and stress-reduction exercises. Like any joint, the TMJ is also susceptible to regular problems like stiffness, arthritis and dislocation. And facial pain can come from other sources, like gum disease, a toothache or a sinus infection. So, if you experience any pain or unusual sensation in your face or mouth, you should visit your dentist as soon as possible for a professional diagnosis. The dentist may need to take an x-ray to get a clear look at the TMJ. Talk with your dentist about TMJ.

before DuPage County Circuit Court Judge Robert Kleeman, according to the DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office. Authorities said Luzaj was the leader of a drug ring with ties to California that was responsible for the distribution of more than 600 pounds of marijuana per month to other dealers throughout the Chicago area. The investigation that led
to his arrest, dubbed “Operation Chicago Haze,” resulted in 12 arrests and the seizure of approximately $1 million, 11 vehicles and five weapons, according to the State’s Attorney’s office.

Resident’s close encounter with coyote comes at height of active season By BRIAN HUDSON bhudson@shawmedia.com DOWNERS GROVE — Over coffee one weekend morning this month, Marty Wynne and his wife looked out into their backyard in Downers Grove and, to their surprise, saw a set of eyes peering back. Actually, two sets of eyes. Just before 9:30 a.m. Feb. 16, Wynne recalled, a pair of coyotes had wandered into his backyard and were lingering between the tree line and their back door. He has seen coyotes in his backyard before in the 4600 block of Downers Drive, but it had been so long — and the coyotes were loitering so close — he grabbed a camera and snapped a series of wildlife shots from his kitchen. “I probably haven’t seen one in about five or six months,” he said. This month and next, coyotes will be more conspicuous as they go through their mating season, said Jack MacRae, a naturalist with the DuPage County Forest Preserve. Mating season actually peaks right around Valentine’s Day, he said. “It coincides with establishing the territories,” he said. “So they are more conspicuous. As far as the behavior, they’re sniffing around, looking for accepting females.” Coyotes will make their presence known even if they remain unseen. Howling increases during mating season as well, and the barks and yips can carry over two to three miles. “The number of calls (about coyotes) we get in here — it’s throughout the year, but there’s always an increase in January, February,” he said. Heading into summer, however, coyote sightings and howls should decrease as the new litters are born, MacRae said. “The lowest number of calls we get are June, July, when the young are at the den and mom and dad don’t want to be conspicuous,” he said. Even when they are staking out territory, coyotes generally do not present a danger for humans as long as common sense care is taken, MacRae said.

Experts say as coyotes hit the peak of their mating season, sightings could become more common in the western suburbs.

“They’re wild animals,” he said. “You don’t want to approach it. You don’t want to corner it. But is it a dangerous situation? Not at all.” There have been, however, a number of cases of small pets being attacked by coyotes. In November, an 11-pound Havanese dog was reportedly killed by a coyote in a Downers Grove backyard not far from Maple Avenue and 55th Street. Attacks on canines are not necessarily coyotes searching for food, MacRae said. Roughly 90 percent of coyote’s diets is smaller mammals like squirrels, mice and rabbits, but often, it is a matter of territory. Small dogs especially should never be left unattended in a backyard that sits near any kind of open territory, such as a forest preserve or golf course, he said. “There’s that ongoing battle — which is my space, which is your space,” he said. “There’s this uneasy testing back and forth all the time.” That about sums up what the coyotes were doing in Wynne’s backyard. They poked around, kept their distance and left after chasing a squirrel up a tree, he said. Wynne has a dog, but he said he’s not too worried about coyotes running off with his 75-pound golden retriever. “I think they have easier fish to fry,” he said.

Downers Grove Township is one of the nine townships in DuPage County. It is the largest township in the county, both in terms of area and population. Pierce Downer, from whom it derived its name, settled Downers Grove Township in 1832. The principal villages of this township at that point in time were Hinsdale, Downers Grove, Clarendon Hills and Fullersburg. Today, the township consists of Hinsdale, Clarendon Hills, Willowbrook, Burr Ridge, Westmont, Darien, Downers Grove and parts of Lemont and Woodridge. Local Government Week is a time to put a face to local government staff and elected officials. It is a time to promote the importance of local government to the community and see what the township has to offer its residents. Downers Grove Township will host an open house from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, March 9, at the Downers Grove Township Building, 4340 Prince St. in Downers Grove (two blocks west of Main Street and one block south of Ogden Avenue). We would like to invite all residents of Downers Grove Township, including families with children, to come out and enjoy refreshments, including popcorn and hot dogs, and see what our township is all about.

And now, Google is making it a little bit easier — and a whole lot more fun — for us parents to encourage our kids to tap into their creativity and think outside of the box. Doodle 4 Google is a nationwide contest that will end with one lucky and talented winner having their “doodle” featured on the Google homepage and receiving a $30,000 college scholarship for themselves, plus a $50,000 technology grant for his or her school. It sounds great, but what’s a doodle? It’s the fun, interactive, educational and sometimes surprising versions of the Google logo that appear on the Google homepage to celebrate special events, days in history, and influential people. For this year’s contest, K-12 students are asked to create a doodle around the theme “My Best Day Ever …” Doodle submissions are due by March 22 and can be submitted online or by mail.

Q A with the Hearing Doctor Q: Can hearing problems cause depression? A: It is known that uncorrected hearing loss can be a major contributor to depression. The greatest impact that hearing loss has is on the psychological make-up Dr. Terri Lightbody of a person. (630) 580-5777 Symptoms such as anxiety, paranoia, insecurity, low self-esteem and social withdrawl are typical signs of depression. Mental health experts are just now investigating the patient’s hearing capabilities to rule out hearing loss as a contributing factor to their depression. The loss of hearing typically comes on gradually, over a period of years. The change in hearing usually isn’t noticeable, it often goes undetected. Many will contribute difficulties in their hearing due to background noises being present or say that others “mumble”. When hearing loss occurs, the person will miss out what is being said and often miss the punch line to a joke. A head
nod or silent laugh is used to cover up the fact that they didn’t understand what was said. When a person experiences this enough times, this uncomfortable situation causes them to gradually choose to avoid these situations and isolate themselves. The kinds of problems that can occur through loss of one’s hearing are: • Communicative misunderstandings • Inappropriate social responses • Embarrassment • Limited career opportunity • riction with spouse and/or children • Seen as having memory problems The last problem listed above scares my patients the most. But the reality is that when others don’t communicate effectively, we tend to contribute their condition to a deterioration of their brain. Uncorrected hearing loss is a major contributor to depression, cognitive & social dysfunction. There are solutions to correct hearing loss, seek an Audiologist to learn about these solutions.
About the author: Dr. Terri Lightbody is a nationally known Audiologist and has her private practice at Town Square Wheaton. She works n the communty as well as wth the Lons Club of Wheaton, a non-proit organzaton dedcated to helpng those wth hearng loss and low vson. She s a nomnee for the Gamon Award whch recognzes outstanding contribution of service to those in need. She is the forerunner in today’s most advanced hearing devices.

los confirmed Friday that the restaurant’s marquee sign — “OPENING MARCH 4 HIRING ALL POSITIONS” — is accurate. The owners also are planning on cutting back from 24hour service. Christopoulos said the new Omega Restaurant will be open from 6 a.m. to 1 a.m. weekdays and until 3 a.m. weekends. The restaurant is reopening with the same owners but new managers after closing suddenly last summer. Long-running problems at the restaurant became public in May, when Commonwealth Edison shut off the building’s electricity over what it said was a nearly $50,000 unpaid bill. Power was restored, but the utility company shut it off again the next month over another unpaid bill. By July, the restaurant also had racked up another roughly $20,000 in unpaid water bills to the village and the Downers Grove Sanitary District. All along, the restaurant’s operator, Jim Stavropoulos, was at odds with the owner, George Andrews. The DuPage County Circuit Court records show years of fighting over both rent and the running of the restaurant. In May, Andrews claimed in court that Stavropolous hadn’t paid rent since February. By July, Andrews was claiming in court that he was owed $364,000. That month, Stavropoulos agreed to vacate the restaurant. Since then, the owners have been doing work on the restaurant to bring it up to code. Christopoulos, who now is co-owner with Andrews, has said he hopes the restaurant can move forward from last year’s debacle.

Some Dog Owners Didn’t Believe It... BUT It’s True. Too good to be true, or is it? Hi. My name is John O’Driscoll and I couldn’t believe it when a new dog owner customer of mine told me what her girlfriends were doing. Before I get into that, let me ask you a question. Have you seen our free 1st grooming? Well, if you’re like a recent customer of ours, you might be thinking that it’s not for real or there’s a catch or there might be some sneaky upsell when you come in. (It’s Real.) But, first, let me say: I get it... I get it... in life there always
seems to be a catch. And I know when it seems like something is too good to be true, it usually is... except this time I want you to know this is a genuine offer from a genuine grooming shop. So why am I doing this? Frankly, we want your business. I think we give such great service that I’m willing to put my money where my mouth is and pay my groomer to groom your dog. At the risk of sounding too confident, I think we have one of the best groomers in DuPage County. All you have to do is call us today. Call 630-969-3145. Just ask us for the free grooming offer you saw in the paper and we’ll take care of the rest. Obviously, I can’t do an unlimited number of these.
There is only a couple of spots available per day, so if you have a need for a really great grooming, so you can have the best looking dog in the neighborhood, call us today. 630-969-3145. So, back to my customers girlfriend... after she got her free grooming with us, she told her girlfriends that we were the real deal... so a bunch of her girlfriends went looking through their recyclables looking for the paper with our ad. So, instead of getting caught in this situation, why not just give us a call and get your appointment today. Again you can call us at
630-969-3145 or find us online at www.bellairegrooming.com

Technology Drives 2013 Trends in Education in the Growing Online Sector Dean of Aurora University Online, Professor Carmella Moran, Forecasts Top Trends urora University recently launched online programs featuring in-demand degrees for today’s top growth industries. he esteemed university joins the list of educational institutions facilities that are expanding their reach by creating courses that are accessible online. he lexible professional and degree programs include some of the school’s well-regarded programs including nursing, education and business administration. Technological advances have helped spur the rise in online education. Students can take advantage of top-ranking degree programs while juggling fulltime jobs and balancing family commitments. Technological advances have also made online education an engaging experience; chat rooms, “virtual oice hours�, forums and study groups all help to empower students to engage with their peers and professors. Consequently, online education is expected to expand in 2013.
A
Carmella Moran, Dean of Aurora University Online, shares her top trends in online education: 5Gamification: Students are growing up in an increasingly interconnected world. According to the NPD Group more than 211 million Americans play video games. Institutions are starting to include gaming into college completion, test prep and everything in-between. Introducing this new way of learning helps students to engage in the learning process and better retain knowledge for tests and overall retention. R5 Social Media:Â Almost 98% of 18-24 year olds use a social media network. At many universities including Aurora University Online, discussion boards, study groups, chat rooms and even Facebook groups help create a social community for students. Because of its widespread popularity, social media is now being used to facilitate learning
management systems and social learning tools. R5 Blended learning: Combining in-classroom learning with virtual learning tools continues as a higher education trend and is also an emerging trend for elementary and secondary schools. Providing online students with face-to-face opportunities to interact with one another and providing in-class students with online tools ofers students more learning opportunities. R5 Real-time: As the tutoring market continues to grow in the United States, students are beginning to demand real-time assistance. Online learners, as well as traditional students, can now easily gain real-time help to grasp lessons in virtual classrooms. For example, Aurora University’s Writing Center ofers writing help to students both online and oline. Students can sign up for “virtual oice hours� where they receive one-on-one tutoring.
In addition to serving as the Dean of Aurora University Online, Moran is the Director and Associate professor for the Aurora University School of Nursing. She has 33 years of experience in the nursing profession, including 18 years in higher education.

Mission Statement
To empower children: � To grow in their Christian faith � To strive for academic excellence through the Montessori Method � To grow in their understanding of the teachings and precepts of the Christian faith � To reach out and serve the community as Christ has called us to do Method. Teachers strive to give the children a irm foundation in the Bible, familiarizing them with God’s word through scripture memorization, stories, songs, signing and drama. Basic Christian fundamentals, rather than a particular doctrine, are interwoven into the fabric of the children’s daily experience. Montessori teachers strive to give the children a irm academic foundation by using the Montessori Method of education, which was developed by Dr. Maria Montessori in the early 1900’s, and based on the theory that the young child’s mind is
like a sponge which can absorb learning from the surrounding environment. his method builds upon the fact that the years from 3-6 are the foundational years of learning. Children of all ages learn best through individual hands-on learning experiences in an environment where they are free to learn and develop at their own pace. his promotes a love of learning and establishes the foundation for further study of language, math, and the sciences in the elementary years. Montessori students develop a sense of inner discipline and order which enables them to become
independent learners. hey learn respect for their environment, the materials and each other. he students in each classroom experience freedom within the structure of well understood guidelines, which maintains a peaceful learning environment. Children develop an understanding of what is morally and socially acceptable, based on Christian values, and learn to make wise choices. he Montessori curriculum revolves around a three year cycle. Classrooms are grouped in communities of students within a three year age span. While younger students learn skills at their own level, they also absorb other aspects of the classroom. Older children further develop their leadership skills while mastering their academics. he children have equal opportunities for independent study as well as shared lessons and activities. If you have any questions, please feel free to call or schedule an appointment to visit our school. We encourage you to visit with
your child so you may both have the opportunity to see our classes in progress and decide whether you would like to be a part of Midwest Christian Montessori Academy.

the United States, though many states have seen library closings. A struggling economy has cost libraries some funding, as some municipalities simply cannot afford to keep libraries open as they used to, while others are taking steps to make libraries more popular in the digital age. Many libraries have increased their offerings beyond traditional books. For instance, libraries have long served as low-cost sources for movies and music, offering sizeable DVD and CD collections. But even now movies and songs can be rented inexpensively through various subscription services. As such, many libraries have now begun offering other services. They may have free music and e-Book downloads and free wireless Internet connectiv-
ity, serve as a location for club meetings, and offer an extensive array of children’s programs. Some libraries have become multimedia centers, housing a media lab where teenagers can create Web content or take a test drive of some of the latest applications available. Many of these efforts are geared toward younger readers and promoting a love of reading among youngsters. Because children are the policy makers of the future, libraries find that making changes catered to the younger reader can promote reading while ensuring the long-term viability of libraries. Despite the digital age, some libraries are still thriving thanks to their ability to adapt to the newest technologies available.

compared to children who do not receive musical training. Stanford University researchers have found that musical training improves how the brain processes the spoken word, a finding that researchers say could lead to improving the reading ability of children who have dyslexia and other reading problems. Furthermore, in an analysis of data on more than 25,000 secondary school students, researchers at the United States Department of Education found that students who report consistent involvement in instrumental music during middle school and high school perform significantly better in mathematics by grade 12 than those who do not participate in music programs. There are many reasons why music education can help to make a child a better student, but there also are other benefits that go beyond the classroom environment. Being involved in music also is a social endeavor, and music education can

set the course for lifelong friends and help create social groups that last through school and beyond. Music education breeds familiarity during a school career, when going from class to class or from school to school every year can be nervewracking and unfamiliar. Walking inside of a band room, whether in elementary
school or high school, can create a sense of belonging. It is also a place where students not involved in sports or other activities can gather. Children who move a lot due to a parent’s work may find that joining the marching band or participation in the choir is the one portion of school that is familiar no matter where they attend school.
While neighborhoods may change and teachers differ from school to school, music can be a reliable constant. While not every child will go on to be the next, great musical sensation, thanks to music education at school, he or she will have learned lessons in working as a team and other social benefits that will help in all areas of life.

chool is much more than a place where students gather to learn. For children, school is their first opportunity for social development and introduction to people outside of their family unit. Lessons learned in school go beyond mathematics and language arts. Students learn to cultivate individual interests and find other people who share their interests. Music is one of the ways like-minded children come together. When many people talk about the benefits of music education, they’re quick to point out all of the quantitative and measurable results of that music education. For instance, numerous studies have shown the positive impact music programs can have on children in other areas of study. Dr. Laurel Trainor, a professor of psychology, neuroscience and behavior at McMaster University, has said that young children who take music lessons show different brain development and improved memory

Fountaindale Library’s new $3 million media center unmatched in west suburbs Tech hub opens to public March 16 By ALEX SOULIER asoulier@shawmedia.com BOLINGBROOK — When the Fountaindale Public Library’s new digital media center opens next month, library members will have more than $600,000 worth of technology and equipment at their disposal. Dubbed Studio 300, the 6,800-square-foot space in the basement of the library will offer the largest and most comprehensive media center of its kind in the western suburbs, according to library staff. Local bands will be able to record music with the studio’s audio recording equipment. Homeowners can

time with long distance relatives via video conferencing. Students can create their
own science projects from scratch using a 3D printer. “This will be an enormous technological asset to the Bolingbrook community,” library executive director Paul Mills said. “Very few people have the resources, space or money to fit all of this equipment in their home.” The studio’s nearly 7,000 square feet of space boasts 18 Mac desktop computers, each with an oversized 27inch screen, and 12 MacBook laptops. It has six audio and two video recording studios and three group collaboration rooms equipped with dual screen sharing technology and video conferencing equipment. There are also 3D and poster printing stations, which patrons can use for a reasonable fee. It will also be home to the Friends of the Library Book Cellar, where gently used
books, CDs, DVDs, flash drives and other electronic items will be sold. Income from the store will benefit the Friend of the Library club. Open throughout library hours, the media center will be staffed with trained professionals to assist users of any skill level. Initially, Studio 300 will function like a classroom, as Fountaindale staff host spring seminars and tutorials to familiarize residents with equipment and technology. Bolingbrook resident and Fountaindale Public Library Studio Services Manager Jeffrey Fisher is already planning introductory classes as well as summer camps to use the media center. “Soon, patrons will be able to attend group classes or receive one-on-one

Studio 300 is a “natural extension” of the ingrained products and software. “When we were brainstorming, we found that a 3D printer was a key element of
digital media centers,” Fisher said. “3D printers are fantastic alternatives to soldering and sanding objects.” Fisher estimates that the most basic objects will take
about one hour to print, while larger, more complex designs could take several hours. A printing price has yet to be officially set, but will be about 50 cents per gram, according to Fisher. Like the rest of the Studio 300 software and hardware, the digital media center staff plans to host instructional classes and tutorials. Additionally, supplemental literature will be made available for studio users.

Fountaindale Public Library provides a sneak peak of a Studio 300 group collaboration room.
“One of the things that will set Studio 300 apart from other library digital media centers is our trained staff. The six staff members come from a variety of backgrounds and will be able to solve minor and major issues residents might encounter. They will be educators and assistants.” Paul Mills Fountaindale Library executive director
training from Studio 300 staff,” Fisher said. “It is important for us to keep the momentum going and keep people excited. In addition to our into classes like Photoshop, we are already thinking about summer camps and other activities.” Fisher began his role in October after the groundwork of the $3 million media center was laid. He has since overseen equipment purchases, aided the media center marketing plan, hired Studio 300 staff and overseen the construction. He will now manage day-to-day operations and programming of the studio. Simply, he said Studio 300 is “designed to provide an avenue for patrons to tell their stories.” When the $35 million Fountaindale Public Library opened in March 2011, favorable construction pricing and
efficient management yielded an approximate $3 million surplus from the building bond, according to Mills. The Fountaindale Board left the basement empty, deferring further construction to survey Chicagoland libraries and determine an effective use. After much deliberation, they hired architectural firm Nagle Hartray to build a digital media center. Now, the studio is unrivaled in the west suburbs, Mills said. “The Joliet Public Library has a digital media center, but they had to abide by spacial constraints that did not affect us,” Mills said. “We had the space to put in multiple video and audio recording studios, and fill the space with the best state-of-the-art technology.” Residents can access Studio 300 beginning Saturday, March 16, when a grand opening is scheduled from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Chef Tom Ryan was named “Chapter Chef of the Year” by the American Culinary Federation Chicago Chefs of Cuisine.

What’s the biggest challenge?
What: American Culinary Federation cooks up Culinary Enthusiast membership for the amateur who wants to learn how to prepare gourmet cuisine or simply stay on top of latest trends Contact: www.acfchefs.org
There are only five or six proteins, when it comes to entrees. We have the same population who come here day in and day out 365 days a year. That’s our biggest challenge. Pick any of your favorite restaurants. If you go there five or six times a week, after three or four weeks, (you’ll ask,) “Is that all they have?” That’s why I add new menu items constantly for them.
And the award goes to Lisle native Tom Ryan, just named “Chapter Chef of the Year” by the American Culinary Federation Chicago Chefs of Cuisine. A certified executive chef, the Bartlett resident is director of food services at Resurrection Retirement Community in Chicago, where he oversees a staff of 75, including six cooks and two assistants. They prepare 750 meals daily for the 500 residents.
That’s how I got my feet wet. In high school … a career counselor suggested I go to a vocational school in culinary arts. I enrolled in that my senior year (and) liked it. The teacher took a liking to me and encouraged me to get a culinary degree.
What drew you to a culinary career?
What’s a specialty of yours?
It was by accident. I’m one of seven children. While growing up, each of us took a turn cooking dinner for everyone. It really goes back to that.

I enjoy making entrees and soups. One of my signature dishes is a Swiss onion soup: a cream of onion soup finished with grated gruyere cheese
and topped with toasted rye croutons. It’s unusual. I learned to make that in Switzerland. I studied there a few years.
How do approach the menu at Resurrection Retirement Community?
Do you get to hang onto the trophy?
That’s the traveling We have a five-week-cycle trophy. I get to keep it for a menu. I’m constantly changyear. It’s a once-in-a-career ing (it), putting new items on the menu to keep the residents opportunity. excited and looking forward to (the dishes). What’s most satisfying
about your role? The residents. Knowing
that I make a difference in their life.
What are some of your personal favorites to prepare? In the summertime, I love grilling — baby-back ribs or brisket. And during the winter months, chilis and stews and soups. Good old comfort foods.
(Note: Involved in the local, state and national culinary communities, Ryan is also a certified dietary manager and a certified Illinois food service sanitation manager instructor. He serves as treasurer of the Chicago Chefs of Cuisine chapter of the American Culinary Federation and is on the national Audit Committee for the American Culinary Federation.)

I Movies: “Hoosiers,” “Love and experienced that last year Basketball” so I’m happy the team got to experience that with me this More inside year.” Romiti’s teammates also got a chance to play alongside Meet the All-Area Girls Basketone of the best players to ever ball Team Page 36 don a Hinsdale South uniform. She tallied more than 1,200 points in four varsity seasons, closing out with 476 points this season. Included in those 476 points were highlightreel-type showings against Proviso East (40 points, what is believed to be a school record) and 10 three-pointers against district-rival Hinsdale Central (also a school record). “She’s phenomenal,” said Downers Grove South coach Ellen O’Brien, whose team fell to Romiti and the Hornets twice this season. “She definitely has the talent, and she just exudes confidence.” As impressive as those single-game performances were, Romiti will take away a whole lot more from this season. “The whole season was awesome,” she said. “I remember when Kerry Just took a charge in the Proviso East game. I’m pretty sure it was her first charge of the year so that was really awesome.” Romiti also said a game in which MacKenzie Kern scored 26 points will be a major memory when she looks back on her senior season. “That was a big deal to me because she’s a good friend and we played together in grade school,” said Romiti, who is looking to play at the next level and has visits planned to Long Island University and South Carolina Upstate. As competitive and demanding as she was on the floor, Romiti was a bit of a softy away from the court. Before home games, she would take freshman Tatyana Presley and Sydney Kopp to Portillo’s in an effort to help nurture the next crop of Hornets. And what does she hope they learned during those meals? “One thing I always want them to remember is having fun and competing and playing with heart,” she said. “Playing with heart, a coach can’t teach you that. Anybody can have the skills, but playing with heart and hustle, that’s what matters to me.”

ALL-AREA GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAM | 2013 Aysia Bugg
Kennedy School: Bolingbrook Cattenhead Year: Junior
A newcomer to Bolinbrook’s program, Bugg made the transition to the Raiders’ uptempo, pressing style look seamless. A speedy guard with deft ball-handling skills, Bugg’s athleticism, scoring ability and tenacious defense added to Bolingbrook’s ability to play its trademark style. Through the Raiders’ regional title game, Bugg was averaging a team-high 16 points per game on 48-percent shooting.
Toni Romiti School: Hinsdale South Year: Senior Romiti: This fouryear starter and four-time all-conference selection averaged 20 points per game, 4.3 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 85-percent shooting from the free throw line. She dropped 40 points in a win over Proviso East this season and made 10 three-pointers against Hinsdale Central. She finished her career with 1,206 points and 214 three-pointers.
School: Bolingbrook Year: Senior A knee injury in early December forced the Illinois-bound Cattenhead to sit out for several weeks, but when she returned she hardly missed a beat. A solid ball-handler with long-range accuracy, Cattenhead also possesses the speed to get to the rim and strength to finish inside with either hand. In 17 games of action, she was scoring 10.2 points per game on 49.1-percent shooting and led the team with a 76.1 free throw percentage.
Gabrielle Rush School: Hinsdale Central Year: Sophomore The West Suburban Silver allconference selection averaged an astounding 21.2 points per game and set a new school record with 99 three-pointers this season. She also shot 85 percent from the free throw line and dished out 87 assists. “I hear that from a lot of coaches: ‘I can’t believe she’s only a sophomore,’” coach Tom McKenna said.
Amarah Coleman School: Bolingbrook Year: Junior Once Coleman got going, opponents had a hard time stopping her. She was able to dribble through traffic and get to the basket almost at will, but she also displayed incredible range that added to the Raiders’ arsenal. Through 25 games, the all-around player was averaging 12.7 points per game, was shooting 52.8 percent from the field, was grabbing 4.2 rebounds per game and had dished a team-high 127 assists.
Lily Sarros School: Hinsdale Central Year: Senior One of just three seniors on the roster, Sarros averaged a double-double with 12.7 points and 13.7 rebounds per game. She was the leader for Central during a season in which it had separate four- and sixgame winning streaks. “She was like money in the bank,” coach Tom McKenna said. “You give her the ball and she would find a way to put it in the basket.”
Sarah Costello School: Downers Grove North Year: Junior Often one of the most athletic players on the floor at any given time, Costello did a little bit of everything for the Trojans, ball-handling, long-range shooting and rebounding included. She led the team with 13.3 points per game to go along with 7.6 rebounds, 3.7 steals and 3.5 assists per game. Costello was also named West Suburban Silver allconference as well as all-tournament at the Glenbard East Thanksgiving tourney.
Kristina Fernette School: Lisle Year: Senior Fernette, along with fellow seniors Kelly Urban and Skylar Tomko, was a key piece for a Lisle team that enjoyed one of the best seasons in school history. An Interstate Eight all-conference selection, Fernette averaged 10.2 points and 6.1 rebounds per game and helped the Lions to an undefeated conference title and a spot in the regional championship game this winter.
MacKenzie Kern School: Hinsdale South Year: Junior A versatile player for the West Suburban Gold champion Hornets, Kern was listed on the roster as both a guard and a forward. She had the toughness and finishing ability to play in the paint along with seniors Kristen Demitrijevic and Kerry Just, but she also possessed the ball-handling and outside shooting to complement guards Toni Romiti and Mary Clare Ladd.
Susie Sternard
Courtney Toth
Kirsten Zemke
School: Westmont Year: Senior An Interstate Eight all-conference selection, the 6-foot-1 Sternard was the leading scorer and rebounder in 26 of Westmont’s 30 games. She averaged 13 points and 8.9 rebounds per game while blocking 30 shots and shooting 49 percent from the field. “I am having trouble imagining what the team will be like without her,” coach Mike McCord said.
School: Lemont Year: Senior This senior had a nice season for the Indians, stepping up in the absence of fellow senior Kelsey Motto, who missed most of the winter with a knee injury. Toth led Lemont in scoring with 10 points per game. She also topped the Indians in blocked shots (29), offensive rebounds (68) and defensive rebounds (123) while shooting 74 percent from the free throw line.
School: Downers Grove South Year: Senior A threeyear varsity player, Zemke did a little bit of everything for the Mustangs. In addition to averaging a team-best 9.7 points and 6.1 rebounds per game, she also dished out 2.3 assists per contest. She scored 25 points against Proviso East this season and was the leading scorer and rebounder in more than half of South’s games. “Without her we’d be at a big loss,” South coach Ellen O’Brien said.
Christen Prasse School: Benet Year: Senior A veteran leader and the only senior starter on a young Redwings team that featured four sophomores and a freshman, Prasse averaged a team-high 16.8 points per game while handing out 3.1 assists per game and draining 37 three-pointers for the year. A back-to-back East Suburban Catholic all-conference selection, Prasse led Benet to a 20-10 record and a spot in the regional championship game.

WINNETKA — Ryan Kujawa’s big meet experience paid dividends last weekend. The Downers Grove South senior diver sneaked into finals at last weekend’s state swimming and diving meet, sitting in 10th place after the preliminary round of dives. But he moved up in a big way in Saturday’s finals and vaulted up to a sixth-place finish. With 291.45 points after the prelims, Kujawa was less than six points ahead of the 12th and final state finals qualifiers, yet he was less than eight points back of the diver in sixth place. His big meet experience (he is a two-time sectional champ and state qualifier) came through Saturday as he made a move up the standings to earn another all-state finish. Last winter, he finished fourth in the state with a score of 397.85. Kujawa wasn’t the only South athlete at the state meet. Junior Josh Jaeger also competed in diving and tallied a score of 141.70. Senior Alec Masterson touched the wall in 21.88 seconds and finished in 22nd place in the 50-yard freestyle.

Downers South wins, North falls in playoff openers By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com
WHEATON — With the season on the line in Monday’s Class 4A Wheaton Warrenville South regional quarterfinal, Downers Grove South boys basketball couldn’t have been happy to see a 17-12 deficit at the end of the first quarter. But that scenario hardly fazed the No. 13-seed Mustangs, who rallied for a 52-43 win over No. 20 Yorkville and moved on to face No. 4 seed West Aurora in a regional semifinal Tuesday night. “We weathered the storm,” South coach Jay Baum said.
More online Find out how Downers Grove South fared in Tuesday’s regional semifinal at mysuburbanlife.com. “They scored 17 points in the first quarter but then we held them to 25 points the rest of the game. Our defense was key, and we got the ball inside on their 2-3 zone. It took a little bit of patience, but we didn’t want it to turn into a three-point shooting contest.” South (15-11) made its move in the second quarter, holding the Foxes to five points and grabbing a 25-22 halftime
lead. South maintained a 34-31 edge going into the fourth and pulled away late for the win. The Mustangs had three players score in double figures. Robert Mara led the way with 17 points, nine coming at the free throw line, while Scott McNellis tallied 16. Jordan Cannon drained a pair of three-pointers and finished with 10 points.
Downers Grove North LISLE — Instead of catching up on lost weekend sleep, Jim Thomas hoped to stay up late Monday night. The Downers Grove North boys basketball coach wanted
to spend the time getting ready for another playoff game. Unfortunately, Thomas and the Trojans didn’t get that chance as Plainfield North won 57-46 in a quarterfinal of the Class 4A Benet regional. “We went to a rotation we haven’t used a lot, and that limited the sets we’re used to running,” Thomas said. “The kids did a great job battling.” Sophomore starter Myles Farley went down with an injury on the third possession of the game and didn’t return. Pete Metros, Ray Greco, Clark Worabey, Garrett Tierney and Rimas Barsketis played in his stead.
The Trojans led 16-14 at the end of the first, but the Tigers were up 31-19 at halftime. Downers North (10-15) cut it to 36-31 in the third quarter, but couldn’t come all the way back from the halftime deficit. “We spent a lot of energy coming back in the third quarter,” Thomas said. “We didn’t have a lot of gas coming down the stretch.” Senior Nick Norton paced North with 20 points and David Edwards added eight points, but it wasn’t enough to lift the Trojans to victory. Plainfield North’s Trevor Stumpe led all scorers with 22 points.

Monkeys have long tails and climb using all four limbs. They live mostly in trees in tropical areas, and spend their time leaping from tree to tree using their dexterous legs, arms and tail.
CHIMPANZEES
GORILLAS
Unlike monkeys, chimpanzees don’t have tails. They are small apes that are able to use tools and communicate with other chimps, and they are known for their intelligence.
Gorillas are apes that are much larger than most chimps and monkeys. They have big, powerful arms and shoulders, and can grow up to 5.5 feet tall.

Goodall was able to learn much about chimpanzees by simple observation using her binoculars and a notebook. What can you learn about animal behavior using observation? Next time you visit a zoo or wilderness park, take your notebook with you. Note the following behaviors while observing the animals from a safe place: ® Where does the animal live? Where does the animal go? ® How does the animal socialize? In groups, or alone? ® Does the animal eat? Does the animal sleep? What do you notice about these activities? ® Do you see anything you haven’t seen before? If so, draw a picture of what you see, or describe it with words. ® What do you hear? Describe the noises. By taking good field notes, you are on your way to learning about the behavior of these animals.
