Officials discuss sign ordinance with local businesses Some Village Board members said they weren’t apprised of meeting

By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT

Let it snow

Although several Village Board members said they were left in the dark, Antioch officials met with local business owners Nov. 21 to discuss the village’s proposed sign ordinance. Antioch Village Board Trustee Ed Macek said he began receiving phone calls recently asking questions about an invitation to the meeting received by some Antioch business owners. The letter was addressed “To Whom it May Concern,” and invited the businesses to a workshop meeting to discuss the village’s proposed sign ordinance. Macek, who owns Country Financial, did not receive an invitation and had no knowledge of the meeting. “I had to tell the folks who called me that I have no idea what the meeting was about,” Macek said. What he does know, however, is that the entire Village Board was not apprised of the meeting. “Focus groups are great,” he said, “but not done behind the board’s back.” Fellow Trustee Jay Jozwiak also

At right: Tiffany Gomez and Bowen Rice take an isolated stroll down Main St. during Antioch’s first snowfall of the season Sunday. The National Weather Service issued a number of advisories throughout the day calling for a snow accumulation up to several inches in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin. Above: A solitary mannequin seems unfazed by the weather while standing in front of Antioch Scwhinn Cyclery, 890 Main St., Sunday. There is hope for area residents, including mannequins, however. As of Dec 7, there are only 104 days left until spring.

A day of infamy

Area lost six servicemen at Pearl Harbor attack

By Sandra Landen Machaj CORRESPONDENT

Let it snow

“It is a date which will live in infamy.” Those were the words of President Franklin D. Roosevelt as he spoke to the American public about the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the American naval base located in Honolulu, Hawaii. The president’s message was presented over the radio the day following the attack as Americans throughout the nation gathered in their living rooms around the radio to listen to the president speak. The naval base was attacked on the morning of Dec. 7, 1941, by the Japanese Imperial Army. The Japanese fighter planes and bombers, began their attack at approximately 8 a.m. and continued for two hours with the planes arriving in two waves as they were launched from six aircraft carriers. The Japanese who had caught the American fleet unaware, managed to destroy approximately 20 American vessels including eight major battleships and more than 300 airplanes, some damaged and others destroyed. More than 2,000 soldiers and sailors stationed at the base were killed and another 1,000-plus were injured. The Japanese Army suffered minor losses when compared to the losses suffered by United States’ forces. Four midget submarines

Salem Lakes elections on the horizon Filings set to occur before Feb. 14 merger date By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT

Although the eventual merger of the Village of Silver Lake and Town of Salem in Wisconsin is not until Feb. 14, when the Village of Salem Lakes emerges, election filings are set to occur before the official date. The following offices for the future Village of Salem Lakes have designated incumbents holding seats. Contested Silver Lake incumbents include Village President Bruce Nopenz, and three village trustees, Patrick Dunn, Eric Ericksen and Doug Randolph. The office of municipal judge, currently held by incumbent Merlene Engstrom, also appears on the ballot. The spring election will be held on April 14. If a primary is required, it will be held on Feb. 21, one week after the official merger of the two municipalities. Current Salem Town Administrator Pat

Casey, the eventual village administrator for Salem Lakes, is pleased the Department of Administration approved the merger before the original Dec. 5 deadline. “This has given us more time to properly prepare for elections,” he said. “We have a clear view of who is running and for which office.” Any resident residing in the boundaries of the new municipality is eligible to run for office. That means anyone currently residing within the boundaries of the Village of Silver Lake or the Town of Salem can take out a packet and gather the required 25 signatures on the petition to be placed on the ballot. Incumbents not running for election must file a notice of non-candidacy with the clerk by 5 p.m. on Dec 23.  If someone who doesn’t intend to run and misses that deadline, the deadline for receiving nomination papers is extended by 72 hours. Silver Lake Village Clerk Vicki Galich

and Salem Town Clerk, Cindy Dulaney, have candidate packets available for pick up in their respective offices. Upon completion, packets should be returned to Galich in Silver Lake. According to Dulaney, this is on the advice of town attorney Rich Scholtze. “When those packets are returned, they must be checked for sufficiency,” Dulaney said. That means residency of potential candidates and people who signed the petition need confirmation as Salem Lakes residents. “We can no longer be under the Village of Silver Lake or the Town of Salem,” Dulaney said. “Our information on the Wisconsin Voter Registration system will be merged to Salem Lakes in early January.” Dulaney said the drawing for ballot order is held shortly after packets are returned on Jan. 3 at 5 p.m. Once the candidates for offices in Salem Lakes are confirmed and the ballot order chosen, the information is given to the coun-

ty clerk for addition to the ballot. The state adds to the ballot the information for state offices and school districts. The county clerk adds to the ballot the information for county offices. The municipal clerk also certifies the municipal wards and certifies the municipal wards to the school districts. The clerk also determines the number of ballots needed in each polling place based on previous spring elections. “Last spring will not be a factor since it was a presidential primary,” Dulaney said. The number of absentee ballots must also be decided, based on previous absentee voters and new ones that have been added. Early absentee voting in the clerk’s office will begin in late January, whenever the absentee ballots are sent to the clerks. The County Clerk’s office is required to deliver ballots no later than 22 days before an election. Casey, Dulaney, and Galich, met Thursday to coordinate out plans for Election Day.

Slices of Life

Oh topiary, oh topiary Each year at about this time I find myself face to face with an issue. It has to do with one aspect of the holidays. In two words – the tree. I can’t get behind the idea of the tree and my lack of spirit makes me feel downright Grinchy. I don’t want to have a tiny, shrunken heart. I want to participate in the magic and miracles of the season. I want to drink eggnog. I want to be enthused about a tree in my living room. I really do. But I’m not. Something must be wrong with me. I can see the magic of the season in other aspects. I love shopping for gifts. I love the Christmas story

JILL PERTLER Columnist

and holiday music. I love family get-togethers and the abundance of festive food and goodies that make the season bright. But I’m not feeling the need to hug a tree (metaphorically speaking). Everyone around me is giddy with tree glee. They can’t wait for the big tree buying day to get here. They have traditions about when

and where to get the best tree. About decorating it while singing carols and eating homemade cookies. About who puts the star on top and who gets to be the first to plug in the lights. They all delight in the celebration of the tree. Their eyes sparkle as they absorb the beauty, radiance and brilliance. And then there’s me. I see pine needles dropping to the floor and cats that think the tree is their personal climbing station. I see work. It’s hard to enjoy decorating a tree when I know it all has to be undone in just a few weeks. I anticipate dragging the tree out to the backyard, getting

sap and pine pricks on my hands. I do not look forward to vacuuming up prickly pine needles from January until March because I never can quite seem to get them all – or perhaps they multiply. I can’t see the forest of joy, for the tree. I know; I have serious deficits. I’ve suggested an artificial tree, but the people who live with me will have nothing of it. They demand a tree that smells like a tree. This year, I thought I’d take a preemptive and creative approach to the issue. I decided we’d have a tree that isn’t quite a tree –

exactly. I got the idea from Pinterest. Instead of a tree, we’re going to have a topiary. I’m making it myself. My project started with an upside-down tomato cage. The base tines are held together with a rubber band. It’s a highly technical craft plan. From there, I just wind leaves and garlands around the base to create a green backdrop. Then, items like pinecones, berries and ribbon complete the festive look. I figured I could even spray it with a bottled pine scent. I started my project last weekend, but ran into a snafu of not having enough

garlands, so the topiary currently sits half wrapped in the dining room. My kids discovered it yesterday and inquired as to its purpose. “It’s going to be our Christmas tree,” I said. They were collectively silent – a feat not often accomplished. Then the youngest spoke up. “That’s supposed to be a tree?” he asked, putting a large inflection on his last word. He got up off the couch to get a closer look. A couple others followed him – another feat not often

If I went to the meeting, there would be a quorum and the meeting would be illegal.” Community Development Coordinator Michael Garrigan explained that he had previously met with downtown merchants and the purpose of this meeting was to discuss the ordinance with those who own businesses outside the downtown area. Brian Bezak, proprietor of Mexican Paradise, which is within the downtown area, said the invitation should have been more precise. “When I looked at this, I thought we were going back to the first time I knew the sign ordinance was being looked at,” Bezak said.

Fox Lake robbery suspect arrested across state line By Jason Arndt STAFF WRITER

An area man wanted in a Nov. 20 robbery in Fox Lake crossed state lines into Lake Geneva, Wis., where federal and local authorities arrested him Nov. 29, and transported to the Walworth County Jail in Elkhorn. Miguel J. Gonzalez, 26, of Round Lake Beach, was granted extradition to Lake County at a Nov. 30 hearing in Walworth County Circuit Court by Judge Kristine Drettwan. According to Public Information Officer Dave Bayless of the Fox Lake Police Department, Gonzalez allegedly stole $600 from two people in Fox Lake. “This was a robbery directly from two people,” said Bayless. “The offender was riding in a car with the victims, displayed a gun, demanded money and fled on foot.” A day after the Nov. 20 robbery, Fox Lake Police obtained a warrant for his arrest, and later filed it with the Lake County Sheriff’s Office Warrants Division, according to a Sheriff’s Office press release. The warrant for aggravated robbery, a Class 1 felony, was executed on Nov. 29, when

authorities learned Gonzalez was staying at a Lake Geneva resort. “Members of the Lake County Sheriff’s Warrants team, who are also task force members of the U.S. Marshals Service - Great Lakes Regional Fugitive Task Force, determined Gonzalez was hiding at the Cove of Lake Geneva resort in Lake Geneva,” the press release states. In addition to the Lake County Sheriff’s Warrants team and the U.S. Marshals service, members of the Lake Geneva Police Department and Walworth County Sheriff’s Office converged on Gonzalez’s hotel room, where he was taken into custody. Authorities transported him to the Walworth County Jail in Elkhorn, pending an extradition hearing Nov. 29. Gonzalez, who appeared without an attorney in Walworth County Circuit Court, told Drettwan he had counsel in Lake County and was not contesting extradition. When Illinois officials pick him up, Gonzalez faces a $100,000 bond, the press release states. Editor Vicky Wedig of the Lake Geneva Times contributed to this report.

were sunk and one was disabled while 29 Japanese aircraft were destroyed. They only lost 64 members of their military and one sailor Kazuo Sakamaki was captured. Since the United States was not at war with Japan, the attack on Pearl Harbor came as a surprise. That attack led directly to the American entry into World War II, first in the pacific, and three days later in the European theaters of war. On the day after the attack President Roosevelt announced our declaration of war with Japan. This declaration was fully supported by Congress. The vote was in favor of going to war with Japan with only one negative vote in the Congress. That vote was cast by Rep. Jeannette Rankin of Montana. Rankin was a pacifist who refused to send anyone into war. Three days later, the Japanese Allies in Europe, Germany and Italy, declared war on the United States. Again, Congress and the president responded with another Declaration of War, this time against the Axis powers, Germany and Italy. And so two years after the war began in Europe, the United States was fully involved.

(Continued from front page)

The attack was unexpected although the United States and Japan had issues. The U.S. was concerned about Japan’s attitude toward China as it tried to expand into China’s territory and take over some of its import market. The United States had responded to Japan’s aggression by placing economic sanctions and trade embargoes against Japan in an attempt to stop the Japanese attempt at expansion. While the United States suffered heavy injuries, the results could have been far worse. The Japanese failed to cripple the Pacific Fleet as they had expected for all the fleet’s aircraft carriers were out of the harbor, delivering planes to troops on Midway and Wake Islands or were returning to the mainland. They did not attack the most important facilities at the base, such as the offshore oil storage depots, repair shops, and left the shipyards intact. The U.S.S. Arizona was the only ship that could not be raised. The others were raised and six of them went on to fight in the war. The Arizona with all its crew on board remains at the bottom of the bay and the Memorial honoring those who lost their lives has been built in the area.

The Pearl Harbor Museum is often the first stop for visitors to Hawaii. The visitor center covers 17 acres. The U.S.S. Arizona Memorial is the most popular visitor destination with over 1 million visitors each year. The battleship Missouri is also on display and can be toured. The Missouri was known as the “Mighty Mo” and was the last battleship built in the United States and the last to be decommissioned. It served as the headquarters for General Douglas MacArthur, the Supreme Commander of the Allied Power and it was on its deck that the Japanese officially surrendered. The Village of Antioch lost six servicemen in World War II as a result of our entry into the war. Listed on Antioch’s Memorial, are Pfc. Theodore Carlson, Marines; Sgt. Walter Echelmen, Air Force; Cpl. Allen Hanke, Army; 1st Lt. Edward Knickelbein Jr, Air Force; Pfc. Willard Randall, Army; and 1st Lt. Arthur Scott, Air Force. Because the attack occurred without a warning or declaration of war, the attack on Pearl Harbor was judged by the Tokyo Trials to be a war crime.

daily necessities, empty refrigerators and cabinets, families on the verge of eviction or already living in cars. Without The Time Is Now to Help, they would have been left in their pain and suffering, living in fear, without the daily necessities of life, and living without hope of ever receiving help. All of you were not willing to let that happen. You helped to spread the word about our charity that used 100 percent of its donations to provide poverty relief. To this day, every penny of your donations are spent on the necessities of daily life for the povertystricken including food, clothing, utilities, toiletries, transportation and shelter assistance. Word soon spread to the media, and the good works we achieved together were shared by CNN, CBS Evening News, CBS Sunday Morning, Fox News and others. But soon after the media left our area, our support returned to all of you, the loyal readers of our weekly newspaper column. You are the lifeblood of what makes The Time Is Now to Help so great. You are what helps us achieve what we have shared in the past 700 weeks of newspaper columns along with the 6,500 people we helped in that same time period that were also in desperate need. Some of the people we helped years ago are no longer with us. Thanks to all of us working together, these people were able to die with dignity. Their last

Many hours, every day, are spent fighting poverty, investigating to make sure every penny we give, together, goes to good people in genuine need. Facing all the challenges and despair of the poverty stricken would be too difficult on my own. Thank God I have all of you sharing your strength through your letters, your kind words, and support to The Time Is Now to Help. Together we make a big difference helping our fellow creations of God. I thank all of you for your support over the past 700 weeks that we have shared together in the plight of the poverty stricken. Your kindness, your caring and sharing with the less fortunate in our communities has been far-reaching and touched many lives over the years. We together have been and will continue to be a blessing to many. We will continue to do our good works for as long as all of you are there standing by our side in this mission.

thoughts in this life were not hunger, fear and pains of poverty. The children we helped 13 years ago are now adults and hopefully following our example of hard work and love for our fellow creations. We hope and pray they followed our example of caring and sharing for their neighbors in need. Our wish is their lives were made better thanks to all of us working together to remove their childhood pains of poverty. This past week we have received many letters requesting our assistance. The need continues to be great. A working poor family is struggling because of the mother being on mandatory bed rest during a high-risk pregnancy. The father had missed work to care for her and the younger child, and the mother had to give up her job. They are being given help with rent and utilities to get them through this temporary financial and medical emergency. A man recently diagnosed with a debilitating genetic disorder is struggling to adjust to his new life in a wheelchair. We helped him to make modifications to his home and provided a handicap accessible van. These are all changes he could never make on his own, yet they have greatly improved his quality of life. Another woman struggling with disabilities was provided a washer and dryer along with food and toiletries. She finds it extremely difficult to leave the home to get to the Laundromat as she has an embarrassing bladder disorder. Now she can wash her bedding and clothing daily to keep up with her personal hygiene. She sent a letter stating, “I don’t know how I would have made it this far if God did not put you in my life.

As I began this week’s column I noticed it was our 700th column. We have shared with all of you 700 letters sharing the lives of those who have been touched by our mission over the past 13-plus years we have been writing this column. You have read both the hardships and the positive changes we have made. You have shed both sad and happy tears with all of us. You have helped us fulfill our mission to remove the pains of poverty for our fellow creations. While every week you have been given a glimpse into the lives of these 700 families, senior citizens, the handicapped, veterans and children turning to us in desperate need of assistance, we have helped about 6,500 of our fellow Americans that you did not read about. They have been quietly helped behind the scenes, no newspaper column or camera was there to capture their plight, but all of you were there with us every step of the way. We always feel your love and support that keeps us motivated to continue our mission. When we began our column, our original goal was to bring attention to the fact that there are many people living in extreme poverty. We also wanted to spread the word to the povertystricken that there are people who care and are willing to help. When we began our column many asked how there could be such poverty in our area. Having just moved our organization from the Chicago area to southeast Wisconsin, we knew what signs of poverty to look for. We did not have to look far to find our elderly neighbors living without electricity, children sleeping on floors, handicapped individuals needing basic
