Local Athletico founder describes ‘powerhouse’ brand

By ALBERT CORVERA msleditorial@shawmedia.com

OAK BROOK — Mark Kaufman took a huge risk in a business about 21 years ago.

And now that business is one of the most well-known physical therapy, athletic training and rehab centers in the Midwest.

“I put in whatever money I had,” said Kaufman, of Oak Brook. “It wasn’t a lot but we took whatever resources we had.

I borrowed from my parents. I borrowed from my wife’s parents. That was the way we started the business.”

Kaufman founded Athletico Physical Therapy in the Gold Coast neighborhood of Chicago in 1991. Today, he serves as the company’s president, which currently has 70 locations in Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin.

“My intention when I opened it in 1991 in downtown was to open one site and keep it open and also do an athletic training outreach within schools and teams ... to get me out into the community,” Kaufman said.

STREET TALK What do you think can be done on the local level to enhance safety and security at schools?

About Mark Kaufman Age: 48 Residence: Oak Brook Job: President, CEO and founder of Athletico Physical Therapy Education: Bachelor’s degrees from University of Iowa (athletic training and physical education) and Northwestern University (physical therapy), master’s degree in exercise and sports sciences from University of Arizona Notable: Once treated Billie Jean King and Harrison Ford in the early ‘90s

Thanks to his strong outreach, Athletico grew faster than Kaufman could believe.

All the major professional Chicago sports teams, more than 200 colleges and high schools in Illinois, as well as clubs, endurance groups and performing arts groups have partnerships with Athletico.

“I think our brand is the strongest,” Kaufman said. “We can describe it as a

“I guess you have to think how to keep the bad guy out. I think the last thing teachers want is to carry a gun.”

powerhouse. I think it’s based around our consistency and quality of care.”

Kaufman and his staff developed a program called FOTO (Focus On Therapeutic Outcomes) as a way to collect data on how the company is performing on all levels of rehab and physical therapy. It measures patients’ outcomes and satisfaction.

“We can look at that and compare that nationally and internationally with physical therapists around the world,” he said.

“We have an idea of where we’re delivering. It tells us how we’re doing and how we can improve.”

While Kaufman didn’t envision himself to be a businessman coming out of Northwestern University, the boom of his company forced him to step aside from his work with patients to focus solely on his role as president.

“I’m surrounded by a great group of therapists,” Kaufman said. “The problem was that I liked working as a physical therapist and that’s where all my training and education was based around.”

Aside from his love for his work is that

of his family. Kaufman spends much of his free time with his wife, Mary Ann, and their three daughters: Fotini, a freshman at Northwestern; Margaret, a sophomore at Hinsdale Central High School; and Christina, a sixth-grader at Butler Junior High.

All three are talented swimmers, and Kaufman’s favorite thing to do is watch his kids compete in the water.

“That’s my hobby, it’s going to swim meets,” he said. “Swimming is a big part of what we do.”

Kaufman’s passion for community outreach didn’t only begin and end with schools. He also serves as a board member for Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Metropolitan Chicago, and Athletico has a partnership with the group for charitable events.

“I have a passion for mentoring children. It’s been shown that the support that a child gets is vital to their success,” Kaufman said. “We support all kinds of charitable endeavors. It’s part of our culture to give back and do different things.”

“They should have security guards.”

Families Helping Families serves Hinsdale area

By ALBERT CORVERA msleditorial@shawmedia.com

HINSDALE — Hinsdale is an affluent suburb, where the average person earns more than $60,000 per year.

Unfortunately, there are a number of families that struggle to afford gas for parents to drive their children to and from school or even to feed their kids on a daily basis. But thanks to the Families Helping Families program, a parent-teacher organization, struggling families within the Hinsdale Central High School community can get some of the basic necessities they need to put their kids through school.

“We get a variety of different requests from the school’s social work department,” said Judy Mulvenna, a Hinsdale Central mom and volunteer who has led the program the last two years along with Julie Glazko.

The program pays for students’ lunches, up to providing dresses and tuxedos for prom and finding housing for families.

“Some students fall in between that gray area where the parents make so much money, but it’s not enough to give the kids $5 a day or have enough food in the house to give them lunch,” Mulvenna said.

If there is any sort of need within the high school, a teacher or parent identifies

Comment on this story online at mysuburbanlife.com. the student to the social work department and notifies Families Helping Families of the need.

During the inception of the program four years ago, Families Helping Families solely received contributions from its small committee of about 61 members pulling from their personal resources. But with the help of the school and principal Michael McGrory, the group was able to get the word out about the surprising need of a handful of students and their families earlier this month.

“People couldn’t believe there were people at Central that have needs,” Mulvenna said. “They just felt that everybody that lives and goes to school at Central is rich.

People have really fallen on hard times.

“The people have been very generous.

They are leaving gift cards and checks at my door daily. It’s really useful to students to buy them books and whatever else they need that they can’t afford.”

One story that stands out to Mulvenna is of a recently single mother of three who

became homeless. But with the community’s help, that family will be able to stay warm this winter. “(It’s tough) to imagine a family completely intact in one instance and the following month, mom is alone with a few kids and is in need of some help,” Mulvenna said. “We were able to secure an apartment for them. We’re helping her get on her feet.

We’re helping her keep her kids in school as well as have a roof over her head.”

Families Helping Families is composed entirely of volunteers who have one goal in mind: To help families get out of a crisis and get them back on their feet.

“It’s been extremely rewarding to help any student or family that is in need in this district ... . There shouldn’t be one student at Hinsdale Central that goes hungry or that doesn’t have a warm winter coat or doesn’t have appropriate athletic shoes,” Mulvenna said.

Donations are always accepted and can be sent to Judy Mulvenna, c/o Hinsdale Central PTO, 408 8th Place, Hinsdale, IL 60521. Make checks payable to HC PTO. Mulvenna also can be reached for more information by emailing jmjpc@aol.com.

“The donations have been overwhelming,” Mulvenna said. “I would cry to see how generous people are.”

Tree of Remembrance appropriate for holidays

As the decorations go up in Hinsdale, we hope you will take note of a display that has been part of the Hinsdale holiday landscape for almost two decades: A Tree of Remembrance that is created by Adventist St. Thomas Hospice volunteers and staff and displayed from Thanksgiving through New Year’s on the BMO Harris Bank lawn at First and Lincoln Streets.

This tradition is open to everyone and helps all of us celebrate the memory of someone we are missing this season — whether they were a hospice patient or not.

For us, viewing the tree with our family is a moving way to start the holiday. The opportunity offered to us by the St. Thomas organization to include the names of these missed family and friends allows us to make a wonderful statement about a person’s continued presence in our hearts.

We are also happy to note that tree-related gifts provide funds for bereavement services that St. Thomas Hospice offers free to all in our community. Memorial forms are available at the bank.

We hope our friends and neighbors will join us this year and make Adventist St. Thomas Hospice’s Tree of Remembrance a part of their own families’ season of remembrance.

Tom and Ann Reynolds, Willowbrook

Local residents get autographs from several Chicago Blackhawks players at Global Luxury Imports in Burr Ridge during a food drive benefiting the Greater Chicago Food Depository. Submitted photo

Thumbs Up — Chicago Blackhawks players, including Jonathan Toews, teamed up to fight hunger Dec. 8 during the Sultan and Sakeba Issa Family Foundation’s food drive for the Greater Chicago Food Depository at Global Luxury Imports in Burr Ridge.

Sultan Issa recruited five Blackhawks players to sign autographs for participating families during the two-hour event, which netted 13,000 pounds of food and raised $18,000, representing 9,500 meals served to Chicago-area families. Everyone involved scored a major goal on this endeavor.

Thumbs Up — The Compassionate Friends meets the second and fourth Thursdays of the month at Cornerstone Community Church in Brookfield so members can help each other grieve the loss of their children. The mission of the Oak Brook-based group, according to its website, is: “When a child dies, at any age, the family suffers intense pain and may feel hopeless and isolated. The Compassionate Friends provides highly personal comfort, hope and support to every family experiencing the death of a son or a daughter, a brother or a sister or a grandchild and helps others better assist the grieving family.” It’s good to know there are such valuable resources in our comminunity.

District 181 releases statement on Newtown shootings SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

The following statement was released

by District 181 Superintendent Renée Schuster in the wake of last week’s shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.: “Our thoughts are with the students, staff and families of Sandy Hook Elementary and the town of Newtown, Conn. These incidents are a devastating reminder that we must continue to be mindful of the need for strong safety protocols in our schools.

We are fortunate to have a strong partnership with our area police and fire departments. We meet monthly to review our procedures and discuss how we can continually improve the security of our student learning environment.

Our front office secretaries utilize a buzzin entry system in each school. Visitors sign in and wear ID badges to ensure that our staff members can quickly and easily note anyone who may be an intruder.

Our students and staff practice lockdown drills, just as they do fire and tornado drills.

A lockdown drill includes specific messaging over the intercom, mapping for building

locations that are deemed safest, procedures to ensure that all are accounted for and means to alert emergency responders of the school’s status. The police department participates in the drills to ensure that we are making the drill as effective as possible.

We maintain crisis plans used by administrators for any number of situations so that in the event of an emergency, there are clear steps to follow.

We use a variety of communication tools to ensure that families and staff are informed about any incidents as we are able, including an automated phone notification system, email, alerts on our website and posts to Twitter (@CCSD181).

Through these efforts and in partnership with our district families, we will continue to provide the safest learning environment we can for our students.

We encourage families to visit our website at d181.org to view Tips for Talking with Children about Tragic Events, a resource that can be helpful during this difficult time.

We wish our school community a safe and happy winter break.”

Cicero man sentenced in head-on Oak Brook crash SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

OAK BROOK — A 26-year-old Cicero man has been sentenced to eight years in prison for causing an Oak Brook crash that seriously injured a woman and two young girls.

Jose Rodriguez pleaded guilty to three counts of aggravated driving under the influence of alcohol in connection with the Nov. 12, 2011 crash. About 8:45 that night, Oak Brook police responded to the two-car crash at York Road and Robin Hood Ranch, where Margaret Bennett, her 6-year-old daughter and her daughter’s 6-year-old friend all were extricated from their car.

An investigation revealed that while driving northbound on York Road, Rodriguez swerved his car into the southbound lanes and crashed head-on into Bennett’s car.

Rodriguez’s bloodalcohol content level was at least 0.14 at the time of the crash, according to a news release.

“There is absolutely no reason that Mr. Rodriguez should have been behind the wheel Rodriguez of a car that night,” said DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin. “Unfortunately, a mother and two young girls will forever carry the scars and horrible memories of what Mr. Rodriguez did to them.”

Rodriguez will be required to serve 85 percent of his sentence before being eligible for parole.

Federal grant awarded to Argonne to help policymakers in urban areas SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

DARIEN — U.S. Rep. Dan Lipinski, D-3rd Dist., announced that Argonne National Laboratory, in partnership with the University of Chicago, has received a $600,000 federal grant for a new research effort that will help decision-makers in urban areas better understand the impact of different policies on their communities.

The National Science Foundation grant will fund the new Urban Center for Computation and Data, an interdisciplinary program that will compile and analyze information collected by cities to help them make more informed policy and planning decisions.

“This grant will bring together researchers from several fields to help decisionmakers in urban areas make better policy choices that should improve the quality of life for residents,” Lipinski said. “With unprecedented volumes of data and statistics being collected in metropolitan areas, grants like these will help put that informa-

tion to good, practical use, and could reduce the burden on taxpayers in metropolitan areas such as Chicago as resources are used more efficiently.”

Lipinski is the ranking member on the Subcommittee on Research and Science Education of the House Science, Space and Technology Committee. Three years ago, when he served as chairman of the subcommittee, Lipinski wrote the bill reauthorizing the National Science Foundation.

The Urban Center for Computation and Data, under the leadership of Argonne National Laboratory and the University of Chicago, aims to produce computer models to simulate the impacts of potential development and policy decisions on areas such as transportation, employment, crime and health. The center includes several outside collaborators, including the city of Chicago, the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, University of Chicago Medical Center and the architecture firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.

NEWS BRIEFS Police resume late-night enforcement crackdown

Police Dept. to host selfdefense class for women

HINSDALE — The Hinsdale and Oak Brook police departments have announced late-night plans for the Christmas and New Year’s holidays.

The intensified enforcement effort against the overwhelming number of late-night impaired drivers underscores the disproportionate number of traffic deaths occurring during late-night hours, police said.

According to data from the Illinois Department of Transportation and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the midnight-to-3a.m. timeframe is the deadliest time on Illinois roads. Not coincidentally, the data also shows this time of day has the highest percentage of alcohol involvement and the lowest occupant restraint use.

Police recommend designating a sober driver and not letting friends and family drive impaired as just two of several simple steps to avoid a tragic crash or an arrest in connection with impaired driving.

HINSDALE — A safety and selfdefense class designed for female high school and college students will take place from 1 to 3 p.m. Jan. 3, 2013, at the Hinsdale Police Department, 121 Symonds Drive.

The 2.5-hour class will address awareness, alertness, preparation and self-defense techniques.

Students will spend half their time in the classroom and the other half learning several defense techniques, practicing them and then being put in a controlled situation where they will learn how to use the techniques they have learned.

The class teaches female students to be prepared for anything, known or unknown, to prevent being a victim.

Space is limited and participants must register in advance. More information is available by calling Officer Michael Coughlin at 630-789-7084.

TASTE OF THE TOWN

Tapping a brand Trademark Tavern ADDRESS: 777 E. Butterfield Road, Lombard CONTACT: 630-472-0777 www.trademarktavern.com

to do

list

N

WHAT TO TRY

ew to Lombard is the upscale sports bar and restaurant Trademark Tavern, whose touches include a pale ale specially crafted for the pub by Two Brothers Brewing Company. Adding panache to the tavern’s concept is co-owner Mandy (Lane) Lewandowski, a twotime veteran of TV’s “Fear Factor,” and a former Miss Illinois USA. She and her husband, Matt, are partners in the venture with George Cibula.

“We’re trying to provide a really welcoming atmosphere that caters to area professionals looking for a unique spot to enjoy a business lunch — and after work, sports fans seeking a really good venue for viewing favorite events,” she says.

Included in the eatery are four tapper tables, each sporting a pair of different craft beers, where customers pour their own drafts. In addition, the bar has dozens of specialty beers on tap.

“It’s a different type of experience,” Mandy Lewandowski says, noting the tavern features an array of fine whiskeys and Scotch in addition to signature cocktails, wines and more than 60 beers. “We bring a downtown feel to the suburbs.”

She calls the menu inventive and affordable, with dishes prepared from scratch in the kitchen — from the popular reuben rolls to beer batter made with Fat Tire beer for the cheese curds.

Matt Lewandowski says the sports bar serves many dishes perfect for sharing from an eclectic menu offering appetizers, sushi

ITEM Turkey burger PRICE $10

A GRINCH WHOBILATION During this jolly, holly time of year, the Grinch will invade Westmont and attempt to steal some of that holiday cheer. He’ll take over Santa’s workshop and turn it into his dark, dingy cave. There will be Grinch games such as the snowball toss, Grinch gift towers, the Grinch slither and Grinch crafts and treats. Hang out inside before heading outside to take a look at the holiday lights on the long-eared mules wagon. The event will take place from 5 to 8 p.m. Saturday at 55 E. Richmond St., Westmont. The event is free. For more information, visit wpd4fun.org or call 630-969-8080.

rolls, flatbreads, salads, sandwiches, entrees and desserts. The culinary team is led by Executive Chef Geoff Silverwood.

Recently enjoying a business lunch was Steve Potts of St. Charles, who praised the mac and cheese, as well as the turkey burger stuffed with brie and apple and topped with baby arugula and roasted tomato.

“The food is wonderful,” he says.

“I like the environment, and great service. Can’t wait to come back.”

Entertainment is offered most Fridays, and during Bears games, chicken wings are free with a beverage purchase.

To create Trademark Tavern, the interior of the one-time Magnum’s steakhouse was completely redone.

ITEM Beer-battered cheese curds with Cajun aioli PRICE $8

A long, sleekly contemporary bar is the focal point of the room with rich stone and wood detail. It’s flanked by private dining areas, including one with a table that seats 14 that’s ideal for groups.

“We’ve had everything from business lunches to baby showers, rehearsal dinners and … birthdays there,” says Mandy Lewandowski.

The private rooms offer audiovisual amenities, and the two larger spaces seat up to 40 or 100, respectively.

Trademark Tavern brings 100 jobs to the area, and Mandy Lewandowski says she appreciates all the support shown by the community and chamber of commerce.

Pillowcases brighten kids’ hospital stay This week’s volunteer opportunity: Case for Caring

tal, they find a brightly colored pillowcase selected by a nurse, the foundation’s website explains, noting that nurses have observed the positive emotional impact the simple item can have on a hospitalized child. The pillowcase personalizes their bed during treatment, and they take it home when they leave.

The first recipient hospital will be Central DuPage. The goal is to put 100 pillowcases in the storage room at CDH so nurses will have plenty to choose from for their incoming patients.

DO IT Erinn Hutkin, editor (630) 427-6253 ehutkin@shawmedia.com

Thanks to suburban family ties, the Californiabased Calliope Foundation charity recently launched a project to help cheer up children who are being treated for cancer at Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield.

The foundation’s Case for Caring is collecting pillowcases with light-hearted, fun designs. They can be dropped off at Wool and Company, a knitting and crochet shop in St. Charles.

“I know so many of you love to sew, so there is a great way you can join Bonnie Kellogg of Fix-a-Stitch; she has wanted to do something for pediatric oncology patients,” Wool and Company owner Lesley Edmondson writes on her website.

She says the drive will continue on an ongoing basis, and invites everyone to sew pillowcases for the project or donate purchased ones.

Kellogg, a member of Calliope Foundation’s volunteer board of directors, was inspired to create the project by her niece, a registered nurse working in pediatric oncology at Central DuPage Hospital.

This month, Edmondson is also collecting handmade scarves for the Heartstrings Scarves project, which will deliver them to girls in treatment facilities

HOW TO HELP Submitted photo

for eating disorders. The program was started by someone who was helped through treatment.

“She (knew) how much comfort it would be … to get things that people had made,” says Edmondson, who compares a scarf to comfort from a hug. “We’ve just supported her ever since, and our customers have been amazing. It’s so nice that people are so thoughtful at this time of the year.”

WHOM CASE FOR CARING HELPS When children arrive for treatment at the hospi-

The foundation says materials should be washable, no-iron fabrics in designs children like, with cotton and flannel recommended. For details on pillowcase specifications, visit the project’s website.

People who don’t sew can purchase pillowcases or make a tax-deductible, monetary contribution to Calliope Foundation designated for Case for Caring.

CHIT-CHAT

Glen Ellyn graphic designer helps

deck the halls of the White House L

ike many locals, Cindy Kiple spent time this season arranging bows and ornaments around the house for Christmas.

But this year, it wasn’t her house that she spent time decorating.

The 28-year Glen Ellyn resident who works as art director at Westmont’s InterVarsity Press was selected as a volunteer to help decorate the White House for the holidays.

Late last month, Kiple traveled to Washington, D.C. to work with fellow volunteers to spruce up the president’s residence for the season. Recently, she talked about what it was like to help decorate one of the most famous residences in the nation.

How did you get involved with decorating the White House?

I got involved as a volunteer by applying through the White House website (www.whitehouse.com,) and was selected. My sister was also selected, as well as two friends of mine. My sister, Shari Koenes, is an interior designers. I am a graphic designer.

What happened during the trip?

We flew to Washington on Thanksgiving day. The work began the next day with all the volunteers working in a warehouse wiring and rewiring ornaments, making different decorations and packing everything up according to the rooms they would be used in. We worked in teams, assigned to different rooms in the house. My team was assigned to the West Wing, so we worked on the West Wing entrance, the West Wing lobby, the vice president’s office, the Cabinet room, the Roosevelt room, the first lady’s office and the Oval Office. Unfortunately, photos are not allowed in the West Wing and we were closely watched by security at all times.

What was your favorite part of the experience?

After working the first day in the warehouse, the next day we started work at the White House. We worked for four days decorating all the rooms we were assigned to. At times, we helped some of the teams in the public rooms as well. It was amazing to see all the activity with all the teams working in the different rooms and watching the designs take shape.

Is there a favorite story you'd like to share from the trip?

On Wednesday, Nov. 28, there was a reception in the White House for all the volunteers. It was so exciting to see all the decorations in place and the house looking beautiful for Christmas. The first lady was there to thank us all. It was a special and magical evening.

It’s hard to choose a favorite part. It was all so amazing. I think working in the Oval Office was so

BELOW RIGHT: Glen Ellyn resident Cindy Kiple (second from left) was chosen as a volunteer to travel to the White House this year and help decorate the famous residence for the holidays. Two of her friends, Rebecca Larson of Winfield (first on the left,) and Deborah Keiser of Barrington (third on the left,) were also chosen to help decorate. ABOVE: During a reception, First Lady Michelle Obama thanked the volunteer decorators for their service to the White House. Submitted photos

awesome just because of where we were. In fact, we were sitting on the floor of the Oval Office, making bows and preparing ornaments and we would suddenly say "Oh my gosh! I'm sitting on the floor in the office of the president of the United States!" It was surreal.

The first family’s dog, Bo, was wandering around the house, which was fun to see. He seemed unimpressed with all of us. He let us pet him, but then he moved on.

Were you able to meet the president?

We didn't see President Obama while we were there.

But it was a thrill to see Mrs. Obama at the reception.

The whole experience was a once in a lifetime opportunity that I will never forget.

All-American honors Former Hinsdale Central star earns freshman awards ahead of bowl game

By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com

After redshirting a year ago, former Hinsdale Central twosport star Jack Allen earned a starting spot on the Michigan State offensive line this season.

Playing six games at center and five at left guard, the 6-foot-1, 295-pounder was named a Sporting News Freshman All-American and was selected to the BTN.com Big Ten All-Freshman Team.

Allen and his teammates, who finished the regular season with a 6-6 record, are preparing to take on TCU in the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl on Saturday, Dec. 29 in Tempe, Ariz.

What has preparation been like for the bowl game — is it similar to practice during the season?

We’ve cranked it up a little more because we have more time to recover. There was more time to get after each other. Then we start working back to how it was during the season.

Are you looking forward to heading to Arizona to take on TCU? It should be a really good game. And I’ve heard it is a really nice venue. I am very excited and the team is too.

Jack Allen

What was last year like for you as a redshirt?

It was a little weird but at the same time, I got to learn from the older guys. I got to learn what it takes to play at this level. It was good to take a step back from everything and look at it.

How do you and your teammates look at the season so far?

Obviously we are not happy with where we are at but it is something to learn from.

What is the difference going up against college defensive linemen as opposed to those at the high school level?

They are a lot bigger. Everyone is just as quick and strong and just as good as you are and even better.

One of your two younger brothers at Hinsdale Central, Brian, is being recruited by a lot of Big Ten schools. Have you talked to him or given him any advice?

I have talked to him and I told him that everybody gives you compliments until you sign. And then you will find out what college football is about. In the end, it is his decision and whatever he decides to do, he will have to live with it. It is up to him.

You were a state champion wrestler at Hinsdale Central. Do you miss that sport at all? And do you ever try to sneak into the wrestling room?

I miss wrestling a lot. And I’ve thought about it but I am not allowed to.

Former local high school stars gear up for college football bowl games.

Three local players grace the Falcons’ roster, though Greg Hohenstein is taking a redshirt season and has not played. Anthony Samuel and John Pettigrew handle the majority of the rushing duties, though Jamel Martin has rushed for 209 yards in seven games and has 19 yards receiving.

Anthony Farinella handles kickoff duties for Bowling Green, averaging 58.3 yards with seven touchbacks this season.

TV: ESPN, ESPN3 What to watch: This matchup features a pair of teams that had high aspirations coming into the 2012 season but fell short of those expectations.

The Wolverines began the year inside the top 10, but were unable to match those expectations.

South Carolina also was a preseason top-10 team, but a pair of losses to LSU and Florida sent the Gamecocks to a Florida New Year’s bowl for the second year in a row after winning the Capital One Bowl last season. Junior quarterback Connor Shaw has been a threat, even after the loss of star running back Marcus Lattimore to a gruesome knee injury on Oct. 27.

Red Devils shut down red-hot Dukes

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com

Coming off a pair of tough losses the weekend before, the Red Devils bounced back nicely in a 53-46 victory over York Saturday in Elmhurst.

Brian Owens led the way with 16 points for Hinsdale Central, which jumped out to leads of 15-0 and 25-3.

Alec Hutcherson scored 13 points, all in the first quarter including a trio of threepointers, and Matt Rafferty added 10 points and eight rebounds.

“We got off to a great start,” said Hinsdale Central coach Nick Latorre. “Alec got us going offensively and it was nice to get off to a good start on the road.”

Hinsdale Central also got it done on the defensive end, holding Dukes star guard David Cohn to six points.

“We just tried to throw as many different looks at him as possible to keep him guessing,” Hutcherson said. “Defensively,

Next game Who: Hinsdale Central vs. Proviso West When: 7:30 p.m. Friday Where: 55th and Grant streets, Hinsdale

we haven’t put together four quarters this year so far. I think we did that (on Saturday) unlike our other games.”

The Red Devils improved to 4-3 overall and 2-1 in the West Suburban Silver with the win over York (7-2, 3-1).

“We've been playing well,” added Latorre. “We lost to a tough Oak Park team last week by two and then we lost to a tough Naperville Central team in overtime so I think our record might have been a little bit deceiving.”

Hinsdale Central returns to the court today when it welcomes in Proviso West.

The Red Devils then kick off the Proviso West Holiday Tournament on Wednesday.

AUTOMOTIVE AUTO BITS

Costly mistakes Avoiding these common mistakes will help keep your car on the road longer.

Oil change intervals matter: According to ConsumerReports.org, “Under normal driving conditions, most vehicles are designed to go 7,500 miles or more between oil changes.”

Check your owner’s manual for the recommended interval.

My tires look fine: Don’t ignore the air pressure in your tires until they “look like they’re low.” AAA recommends that you check your tire pressure bi-weekly.

Check your coolant: The coolant in your radiator keeps the engine cool while it’s running and can keep the engine block from freezing if you live in an extremely cold climate.

— Brandpoint CAR Q&A

Dash cluster Q: I own a 2002 Buick Century with 80,000 miles. The shift indicator and odometer stopped illuminating. I went to the dealer and they said I need to replace the dash cluster at a cost of $500. Is there any other solution?

A: We remove and send out the dash clusters to a company that rebuilds them for a third of what GM charges. There may be a local company that also can rebuild the dash.

REVIEW

The ATS is Cadillac’s ‘roads scholar’ T

he new ATS would be a huge shock if we hadn’t already been conditioned by its bigger brother, the CTS. Both of these talented rear-wheeldrive sedans are the result of Cadillac’s having contracted Nurburgring Syndrome. The ‘Ring is that famously complex 12.94mile road-racing course deep in the woods of eastern Germany where manufacturers refine their performance cars. With bumps, hills, 73 corners and straights long enough to let the big dogs run close to 200 mph, the ‘Ring is much more like an ultimate country road than a modern racetrack laid out for TV coverage.

Carmakers use the ‘Ring as a field laboratory, a place to see whether the computer simulations are correct. A few years ago, even Cadillac began flogging its development mules around those 73 corners and 13 miles. The first ‘Ring-born Cadillac was the almost-outrageous CTS, which we called the best American-made driver’s car ever. The smaller, lighter, more nimble ATS is better yet.

Cadillac offers the ATS in four styles - Luxury, Performance, Premium and standard - with a 202horsepower 4-cylnder engine, a 272-horsepower turbocharged 4-cylinder or a V6 rated at 321 horsepower. A standard ATS starts at $34,000. Our test car, an all-wheel-drive V-6 Luxury with $3,000 in options atop an already well-

Leapfroggressive than any 3-Series ging traffic is easy and feels

unhurried. The ride is beautifully controlled and comfortable, with precise turn-in and flat, neutral cornering. There are three suspension modes - Touring, Sport, Winter - but it’s hard to tell them apart, especially as Cadillac’s Magnetic Ride Control automatically adapts the dampers to new blacktop or old potholes.

Dead-stable in a straight line, the ATS can change direction like a cutting horse.

The steering is taut and perfectly weighted at any speed.

An ATS owner with a season’s pass to the Nurburgring (about $1,800 for unlimited laps on public days) might order the available high-performance Brembo brakes, but the stock anchors are more than powerful enough for normal, even heavy-duty road use.

Dynamically, then, the ATS is a star, an all-around player that could hardly be less like your daddy’s Caddy.

(Let’s not even mention the vile, hideous mid-’80s Cimarron, the company’s only previous stab at a small car.)

What about refinement and creature comforts?

The back seats are a bit tight, but everything else is very nearly outstanding, with only hints of oldschool gaudiness.

If you think you’re busy this time of year, imagine how busy the first lady of holiday cheer can be. Not only does she help the big guy get ready for Christmas, but she makes sure everyone in the North Pole has a memorable holiday season. From hosting parties to keeping the elves happy and healthy, this joyful time of year is also her busiest.

For a holiday season filled with joy and laughter, Mrs. Claus shared her favorite ways to make lasting memories with your little ones.

Letters to Santa: Santa loves receiving letters from children.

Encouraging your kids to write to Santa provides a great opportunity to teach them how to spell, compose written text and allows them to practice handwriting. For younger kids who haven’t started reading or writing, encourage them to draw pictures, instead.

Leave something special: Making a snack for Santa with your little helpers offers an extra opportunity to spend time together creating memories that will last a lifetime. Think beyond the cookie tray and personalize your treats just for him.

Holiday cheer: Make decorating the house a fun event for the whole family. Engage your kids in holiday crafts to display on the mantle and make sure everyone has ornaments to hang on the tree.

Rudolph roadmap: Make sure Santa and his reindeer can find your house. Sprinkle a mixture of oats and glitter on your front yard to help guide them right to your home - even if it gets a little foggy.

THE GAUGE Your Weekly Mortgage News & Updates

Mortgage Rates Ease Slightly, Remain Near Record Low MCLEAN, Va., Dec. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Freddie Mac (OTC: FMCC) today released the results of its Primary Mortgage Market Survey® (PMMS®), showing fixed mortgage rates easing slightly and remaining near record lows to keep homebuyer affordability high and attractive to those looking to refinance.

News Facts 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) averaged 3.32 percent with an average 0.7 point for the week ending December 13, 2012, down from last week when it averaged 3.34 percent. Last year at this time, the 30-year FRM averaged 3.94 percent.

15-year FRM this week averaged 2.66 percent with an average 0.6 point, down from last week when it averaged 2.67 percent. A year ago at this time, the 15-year FRM averaged 3.21 percent.

5-year Treasury-indexed hybrid adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) averaged 2.70 percent this week with an average 0.6 point, up from last week when it

averaged 2.69 percent. A year ago, the 5-year ARM averaged 2.86 percent.

1-year Treasury-indexed ARM averaged 2.53 percent this week with an average 0.5 point, down from last week when it averaged 2.55. At this time last year, the 1-year ARM averaged 2.81 percent.

Average commitment rates should be reported along with average fees and points to reflect the total upfront cost of obtaining the mortgage. Visit the following links for Regional and National Mortgage Rate Details and Definitions. Borrowers may still pay closing costs which are not included in the survey.

Quotes Attributed to Frank Nothaft, vice president and chief economist, Freddie Mac. “Mortgage rates held relatively steady following the November employment report. Although 146,000 jobs were created, above the market consensus forecast of 85,000, revisions subtracted 49,000 workers over the September and October period. The unem-

ployment rate fell from 7.9 to 7.7 percent. However, in its December 12 monetary policy statement, the Federal Reserve (Fed) noted that this rate remains elevated and modified the statement to tie any increases to its target rate to the unemployment rate falling below 6.5 percent. The latest Fed central-tendency forecast is for unemployment to be between 7.4 and 7.7 percent in the fourth quarter of 2013 and between 6.8 and 7.3 percent by late 2014.”

Get the latest information from Freddie Mac’s Office of the Chief Economist on Twitter:@FreddieMac Freddie Mac was established by Congress in 1970 to provide liquidity, stability and affordability to the nation’s residential mortgage markets. Freddie Mac supports communities across the nation by providing mortgage capital to lenders. Today Freddie Mac is making home possible for one in four homebuyers and is one of the largest sources of financing for multifamily housing.
