Taxing districts to pay for hospital exemption By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

In a fight over claiming tax-exempt status, local area hospitals won and now stand to receive millions in tax refunds. Who loses—the taxing bodies within the service area—in large part the school districts that now have to pay it back. The Illinois Department of Revenue last year denied property tax exemptions to three not-for-profit hospitals, two in Will County: Adventist Bolingbrook Hospital and Edward Hospital and Health Services on their charity care levels. The move launched a statewide debate on taxexempt status. In response, the Illinois Hospital Association began lobbying legislators to expand tax exemption qualifications to include patients’ unpaid debts, the costs of elderly

patient services not covered by Medicare, Medicaid patient services, and the costs that teaching hospitals incur to train physicians and conduct research. Their efforts paid off, and in June 2012, Gov. Pat Quinn signed legislation that expanded the definition of charity care. According to the new law, taxexempt (non-profit) hospitals can keep their exemption if their uncompensated care figures equal or exceed the estimated property tax liability, which is determined by the fair market value from an impartial third party. Adventist and Edward are now expected to receive refunds for property taxes paid for several years while their taxexempt status was pending. ABH CEO Rick Mace told the hospital board of directors in See HOSPITAL, page 5

Quick with the scissors, quicker with the tongue, ‘Banana Joe’ now calls the shots By Nick Reiher Staff Reporter

oe Babich bounces around his customers as a prize fighter would an opponent, flashing quick, precise jabs at extended locks until they are beaten back … at least for another couple weeks. He stops only when he hears the bell, the phone near his barber chair that rings every so often when a customer wants to know how long the wait is. “Banana Joe’s,” Babich yelps into the old-style receiver hanging from the wall as Shania warbles on the radio.“It’s clear right now. I’m just finishing someone up, and there’s no one waiting.” Not too much later, a customer saunters down the steps of the Six Corners shop Babich and his brother, Bob, have shared since June 26, 1969, a day Babich remembers well: “That was the beginning of the Cubs’ collapse,” said the 74-year-old of the North Sider’s plight at the hands of the “Miracle Mets.” It also was the beginning of a business that would become one of the centers of Democratic politics in Joliet and Will County, carrying on

the tradition of another barberturned-politician, the late LeRoy Van Duyne. Like his tonsorial-political mentor, Babich has the gift of gab and an upbeat personality that makes people who meet him question why they aren’t in a better mood as well. Like most any good barber, he’ll gladly tell war stories, including stories on actual naval ships.And he’ll tell you his life story, in dribs and drabs, as he dances around a customer or corralling fallen hair with a broom throughout the shop. Born in Joliet, Babich attended St. Joe’s Grade School where he got his famous nickname.“I used to bring a lunch in a paper bag,” he said.“This was before those metal things. And I usually had a banana packed for lunch. So

Joe Babich and his brother Bob, left, have shared space at the 87-year-old Six Corners building since the summer of 1969. Before he took on his own customers, Babich apprenticed, both tonsorially and politically, with the late LeRoy Van Duyne.

“I used to bring a lunch in a paper bag. And I

usually had a banana packed for lunch. So one day, one of the guys looks at my bag and says, ‘Hey, I bet he’s got a banana in there.’ So they started calling me, ‘Banana.’” Joe Babich

one day, one of the guys looks at my bag and says,‘Hey, I bet he’s got a banana in there.’ So they started calling me,‘Banana.’” After four years at Joliet Catholic, Babich got a call from Uncle Sam. On the advice of his father, Babich joined the Navy so he could cruise on the water rather than having to march everywhere. During his tour, he was assigned to the first nuclear

carrier, the U.S.S. Enterprise, on which he crossed the equator a couple times (with all the usual Navy ritual) and made a trip to the Gulf of Tonkin.

A family man Following his discharge, Babich flew home and into the arms of the former Mary Cresto, his wife and mother to Kelli and Lisa. Now Lisa Karnezis, she and

husband Dimitri gave the Joe and Mary twin grandchildren, Joseph and Olivia. Babich, who also has a degrees in political science from Joliet Junior College and Lewis University, graduated from barber school in Chicago before serving his apprenticeship with Van Duyne, then on the County Board, at the shop at Jackson and Landau. He honed his barber skills, as well as his interest in politics. Babich was first elected to the board in 1982 and outlasted other Democrats serving at that time: “Sis” Plankar, Mary Marolt and Herman Alberico. He would go on to serve alongside others, albeit a handful at a time, See BANANA, page 5

BANANA Continued from page 3 including Angie Dew, Margie Woods, Charles Cain, Ruth Kennedy and Chuck Adelman, who would become the first Will County Executive. Babich said he always got along well with the Republicans, but that didn’t mean he and the other Democrats wouldn’t have to suffer through the losing end of one party-line vote after another. As a Democrat on the board in those days, Babich said, “you just tried to do what was best for your constituents.” As it appeared Democrats would gain control of the County Board following the Nov. 6 election, Babich made it known he wanted a leadership position. He deserved a leadership position. Yeah, he was commander at Cantigny VFW Post 367 in 1985-86, but he yearned for a County Board commission. He got two: Babich was named chair of the board’s Public Health & Safety Committee; but his biggest plum was being named president of the Will County Forest Preserve District Board for 2012. That took some doing, because unlike the dual job on the County Board, the Forest

Preserve Board does not have Democratic County Executive Larry Walsh to break the 13-13 tie on the board. Republicans wanted one of their own, Don Gould of Shorewood, to head the Forest Preserve Board. Babich and Gould, as well as Diane Seiler, D-Lockport, Democratic Caucus Chair, and Scott Pyles, County Democratic Party Chairman, decided to meet after new County Board Speaker Herb Brooks was finished with his sermon at St. John’s Missionary Baptist Church, where he is pastor.

Working together After an hour or so, Babich said, he and Gould were shaking hands, deciding to split the two-year presidency, with the former taking 2012 and the latter taking 2013, with the other serving as vice president. “You’ve got to work together,” Babich said, as he does Tuesdays through Saturdays with “Banana Bob” and “Banana Shelly” Money at the shop. He has a ball there with his comrades and his customers. But it’s clear he relishes his new roles with the county. “After 30 years, I’m chairman of a committee,” he said. “When people want something done, they’ll have to come to me first now.”

HOSPITAL Continued from page 2 a memo, “that the morally right decision was to pay our taxes, under protest, to Will County in full, letting the county know we were certain the hospital would be recognized as deserving taxexempt status.We fully expected to receive a refund of our tax payment.” Will County Treasurer reports indicate that ABH stands to receive more than $5.3 million in property tax refunds for years 2008 through 2010.The majority, approximately $3.5 million, will come from Valley View School District 365U. Edward’s tally rises to $1.1 million in property taxes for the same time period for its Plainfield campus, with more than $757,000 coming from the Plainfield School District 202. The remainder of the tax refund, in a lesser degree, will come from taxing bodies within the communities, including the villages, counties, forest preserve,

“Everyone will get hit,

all the taxing bodies will have to pay the taxes.” Debbie Militello. Will Co. Treasurer’s Office township, and park and library districts. In three court orders in December, a Will County judge ruled that Adventist and Edward were entitled to refunds for certain tax years. The county treasurer’s office is in the process of collecting the money back from taxing bodies, including school districts and municipalities. “Everyone will get hit, all the taxing bodies will have to pay the taxes,” said Debbie Militello of the Will County Treasurer’s Office. “This was a court order, and we are following procedure. We will work with both parties on however they want to settle the matter.” It has yet to be determined how the taxes will be paid, whether in one lump sum or in

installments. “We have worked with Will County officials to obtain our lawful refund and understand that these refunds must come from the county’s individual taxing districts that were recipients of our overpayment, most prominently the Valley View School District 365U,” said Mace. Mace said the amount translates into emergency care 24 hours a day, 365 days a year for the community’s most underserved residents. “Unfortunately, every dollar tied up elsewhere is a dollar not spent on sick and needy patients. We have conveyed those concerns, and we believe those who serve us have heard,” said Mace. As of press time, the school district did not respond to requests for information.

Paying it forward: Students learn act of kindness By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter

It’s the kind soul that held the door for you while you grabbed a screaming toddler,a bag of groceries and a runaway cart. Or the brave driver who dared to let you cut in lane during rush hour traffic. Random acts of kindness— those moments that instill the desire to return the favor. That’s the idea behind the launch of Valley View School District’s 365U program,“Pay it Forward 365.” Designed as a way to help students and staff focus on positive interactions throughout their daily lives, “Pay It Forward 365,” is modeled after a national campaign based on the Kevin Spacey movie about a teacher who inspires a student to complete acts of kindness to three people.Those three people pay back that act of kindness with three more acts of kindness each. And the kindness spreads like wildfire. Specifically during the week of Feb. 4, but also extending

Pioneer 2nd graders (from left) Jay Panicker, Christopher Quinones, Erin Pioquinto and Sofia Mondini make the first contributions to the Bolingbrook Elementary School’s “Team Forever Grateful” campaign for Hines VA Hospital veterans.

throughout the remainder of the school year,“Pay It Forward 365” will feature activities and lessons in each school that will motivate students to consistently perform acts of kindness. “Our goal for February is to have students feel the power of being the recipient and giver of good deeds,” said Michele Bochnak, who heads up Valley View’s anti-bullying task force.

“Hopefully the good feeling that kindness brings will change attitudes in our school and limit bullying behaviors.” The ideas for acts of kindness were already spreading like wildfire with teachers and students alike planning ways to surprise someone with an unexpected action from a simple list of good deeds to collection drives for veterans.

“We’re hoping this will spill over into the community too, with our students performing acts of kindness everywhere,” Bochnak said. In fact, Pioneer Elementary School kicked off its “Pay it Forward 365” campaign with a two-week drive to collect comfort items for veterans who are patients at the Hines Veterans Administration Hospital near Maywood. Spearheaded by Laura West’s 5th grade class, the program encourages students, families and community members to bring in items from a wish-list created by former Humphrey Middle School teacher Cindy Zamirowski and her non-profit group called Cindy’s Baking Angels. That wish list includes alcoholfree mouthwash and aftershave, chapstick or lip balm, combs, denture adhesive, denture cleaning tablets, deodorant, disposable razors, hand and body lotion, nail clippers, pocket size tissue, shampoo, shaving cream, toothbrushes, toothpaste,

crossword puzzle books, find-aword books, playing cards and Sudoku books. Cindy’s Baking Angels, based in Bolingbrook, was founded to provide baked goods and amenities for U.S. troops overseas. The Pioneer collection drive will continue through Feb. 15. More information is available by contacting the school office. To learn more about Cindy’s Baking Angels go to http:// cindysbakingangels.net. Fourth and fifth graders will hand make fleece scarves to be donated to Power Connection and other homeless resources. With the help of students and club sponsors, schools have a theme for every day of the week and activities planned to match the idea behind the act of kindness. Other classrooms throughout the district are reaching out to seniors and offering cheerful letters to brighten their day. Some are stressing how simple an act of kindness can be— spreading smiles is all you need.

H o ro s c o p e s You can’t hit the ball every time at bat. There is always someone keeping score and adding up the averages. In the week to come, don’t get out of sorts just because your performance is being scrutinized.

Respect and trust are the two easiest things to lose and the hardest things to get back. In the upcoming week, make an extra effort to remain ethical especially when it is just a case of “business as usual.”

Remember to honor the golden rule. In the upcoming week, treat others with the same respect and consideration you would like in return. Get bills paid today to avoid mix-ups later in the week.

Being generous attracts prosperity. Sound business practices of the past may reward you in the present. It is a fine week for smart financial maneuvering or to make your mark at community gatherings.

You mean business. Start the week off right by attending to your personal affairs with the same level of skill and serious attention to detail you would provide to an employer. Pay attention to your finances.

All for one, and one for all. People will be more reasonable and willing to look optimistically at any plan on the table if everyone benefits. In the week ahead, be sure to include all members of a group.

Tune up your instrument before a performance. Since “practice makes perfect,” don’t be surprised if someone critiques your presentation or demands that you try just a little harder in the week ahead.

You will never become poor by giving. In the week to come, don’t be stingy about giving to charities, giving of yourself or giving someone the benefit of the doubt. Accept invitations to group functions.

You can never be too rich or too thin. Start to watch your diet this week. Recent overindulgences may make you feel guilty or awkward. Make sensible changes and deny yourself a treat.

Rather than mixing business with pleasure, business can be a pleasure. Your financial acumen gets high marks. Be sure that whatever you endorse holds benefits for everyone in the week ahead.

Keep a rabbit’s foot handy. A positive outlook and faith in your fellow man could be rewarded with good fortune this week. It is the deeds and not the intentions that make the world go around.

Flipping a coin and choosing heads or tails is not the solution. Everything will become clear in the week ahead and you will be able to act from moral certainty rather than trusting to dumb luck.

Raiders ready for playoff run By Mark Gregory Sports Reporter

All season, Bolingbrook coach Tony Smith has been saying the young Raider team this season has not been around long enough to understand the significance of the team’s winning streak against conference opponents or the natural rivals that are out to dethrone Bolingbrook early in the post season. At this point, Smith sees only one way they are going to learn and he hopes it doesn’t happen. “I don’t think they are going to understand it until it happens, unfortunately,” he said.“We have been talking all year. I have been yelling, it’s not personal, but I just want them to understand. I understand. That makes their season.” This season, like last year, the Raiders and Whitney Young, the state’s top-ranked team, are on a collision course to meet in the Hinsdale Central Supersectional. However, this year, without Morgan Tuck and Ariel Massengale on the team, other teams see more than ever a chance to eliminate the Raiders before the supersectional. Bolingbrook holds the No. 1

seed in the Oswego Sectional and will play Wednesday, Feb. 13 at 6 p.m. in the opener of the Yorkville Regional.They will face the winner of No. 16 Plainfield North and No. 17 Joliet West, who play the day before. As long as Bolingbrook closes out the season unbeaten, a win in a regional opener would give Smith his 300th win with the Raiders. The Raiders will then play (No. 8) Oswego East or (No. 9) Yorkville in the regional championship. The Raiders have never lost in a regional game under Smith, and have only ended its season prior to the sectional title game once. If Bolingbrook keeps its regional title streak alive, it will likely have to face one of two natural rivals waiting in the wings in the sectional opener. Fellow Valley View School District high school Romeoville is the No. 4 seed in the sectional and No. 5 Plainfield East are favored to meet in the Lemont Regional title game, with the winner getting the Raiders. If seeds were to hold on the other side of the bracket, See READY, page 16

Time for refs to get with the game I have always been a die-hard sports fan, so soon after my ability to play the game failed me and before my job to write about it started, I spent years officiating the games I love. Baseball was, and is, my first love and I have umpired the longest and at the highest levels of any sports I have done, but basketball is second. I only tell you this, because my background as an official plays into the way I watch a game as a

fan or a reporter. I know my share about positioning and hustle and when an official has control of a game or not. All that being said, I began to notice a trend about a year or two ago and this year it is the worst it has been. When it comes to girls basketball, the game has past by most of those officiating it. What do I mean by this? Well, girls basketball was once a slow, fundamental based, half court style of basketball that didn’t require officials to break a sweat going up and down the floor. Now, that has all changed.

The girls game – at some levels – has caught up with the guys game in terms of pace and athleticism. I see officials all the time that simply cannot keep up with the girl as she goes for a fast break layup, so that leaves the offensive and defensive player at the rim with the ref lagging behind at the foul line trying to make a call. We are blessed in this area to have talented teams like JCA, Romeoville and Plainfield East that have the talent and skill to play an up-tempo game and I have watched officials blow calls in all of their games this season because of it. But one game in particular last week forced me to finally hit the keyboard on this subject. The second match-up of the year between Bolingbrook and Homewood-Flossmoor, two of

the area’s more athletic girls basketball teams, saw several blown calls – all because the game moved too fast for the officials. On several occasions, girls were called for a travel when they caught the ball and set their feet for a shot – a move often used in the guys game with no penalty. Same with girls using a jump stop in the lane on the way up for a layup. Officials allow this move in the guys game, but not in the girls. Why is that? I have only two reasons I can think of. One is because officials go into guys games under the assumption that the players are athletic enough to properly execute these moves without being in violation of the rules. When officials see the girls, they

assume the opposite and don’t give them that benefit of the doubt. Either that, or the officials that assignors put on girls games are just really bad and need to be officiating below the varsity level. For years, the girls game has been a place aging officials have been sent to die. I am going to assume it’s the first one and these officials simply need to come to the conclusion that many girls in today’s game are athletes. This is not the girls basketball that they were brought up watching and they have to be re-educated, re-trained or sent packing. I ask any reader to go out and watch players like Bolingbrook’s Kennedy Cattenhead or Aysia Bugg, JCA’s Nicole Ekhomu or See WIDE RIGHT, page 16

Williams improving in post for Raiders By Mark Gregory Sports Reporter

Mark Gregory/Bugle Staff

Junior Kenny Williams has worked hard to improve his post skills.

When in grade school, it was easy for Bolingbrook’s Kenny Williams to dominate a basketball game. Bigger, taller and stronger than his elementary school counterparts, Williams was clearly the best player on the floor nearly every time he played. Then came high school. “In middle school I was the biggest one on the floor and then I got to high school and they were much bigger,”Williams said. “I knew if they were bigger, I just had to get stronger. I know if I am stronger and more aggressive then we are fine.” When Wiliams reached high school, his size and strength no longer loomed over his opponents, especially when he was brought up to the varsity team as a sophomore last season. So, the 6-foot, 6-inch, 250 pound Williams has turned to hard work to perfect post moves and skills he never needed as the biggest player on the floor. “As long as I keep working hard and doing what I need to do the team is winning,” Williams said. “If I am not doing what I need then I am just taking up space.” Williams is averaging 10.6 points per game this season, most of that coming after he and SMU-bound senior Ben Moore got on the same page and started to coexist in the paint. “In the beginning of the season me and Ben weren’t working together as good as

we are now,” Williams said. “In the beginning of the season, we were playing selfishly and then about two or three weeks in, we started clicking. Now it’s like our mindset is at the same pace and we are on the same level. He is making good decisions, I am making good decisions, so we are doing what we need to

do. We don’t care who is scoring points, it’s who is making plays and helping us win as a team. “One of our main goals is to get the ball down low and if we have the outside shot, to kick it out. It has been fun pounding the ball inside. It is an advantage See POST, page 16

Bolling becomes the Flyers’ 70th professional signee in program history. “I couldn’t be happier for Mike and feel he will be a great fit for the Boomers,” Lewis head baseball coach Tim McDonough said. “Mike has a unique set of skills, and his speed will play well at any level.” During his two seasons at Lewis, Bolling was a two-time National College Baseball Writers Association All-Midwest Region Second Team selection, as well as an American Baseball Coaches Association and Daktronics AllMidwest Region Team honoree in

2012. Bolling also garnered All-Great Lakes Valley Conference honors both seasons after leading the league in stolen bases two years in a row with 34 in 2012 and 31 in 2011. In his 94 career starts in the outfield, he tallied 79 hits including 15 doubles, four triples and four home runs for a .431 batting average and a .433 slugging percentage. “On top of his ability on the field, Mike will bring energy to the park every day and will be an outstanding teammate,” McDonough said.

to our team and a disadvantage for other teams.” Bolingbrook coach Rob Brost is happy with the way Williams has progressed this season and

the way he and Moore have learned to coexist. “They are learning to play together a bit and not singularly in the post,” Brost said. “The last several games, Plainfield North is a perfect example when Kenny had 28 and Ben had 20. Teams can’t help on Ben because Kenny will hurt them and you see that the last few games as Ben has put up all-state numbers. Now, that will open it more for Kenny.” The post tandem helped the Raiders to a pair of SouthWest Suburban Conference win last week, beating Lincoln-Way Central and Sandburg.

As in any cross-town rivalry, records and rosters can be thrown out,strategies put on hold,because when teams and players know each other as well as the Downers Grove North and Downers Grove South players do – the game is going to be a dogfight. And that held true Saturday night as South, who had been down all game, won 42-39 on a Scott McNellis NBA range threepointer at the buzzer. “I am proud of the whole atmosphere,” said Downers Grove South coach Jay Baum, who was presented a plaque before the game. Baum is retiring after the school year. “Their coaches did a great job and we are all friends and the kids all played travel basketball together and they know each other. They are a good team and we are a good team, we are both probably a little better than our records. Hats off to the whole community for coming out. It was a great basketball game. It was a fantastic program win.” While North led most of the game, the Mustangs made a push late and took a two-point lead on a Danny Spinuzza threepointer that was erased on a pair of Myles Farley free throws with 1:38 left in the game. Following the foul shots, Baum decided to play for the last shot. “I trust Danny unequivocally to make good decisions and find the right guy,” Baum said. “The reason I didn’t call timeout is that I didn’t want them to change their defense.” Spinuzza ended up with the ball inside 15 seconds to play and looked for a shot. “Danny gave me a really good pass,”said McNellis. who buried his shot from well beyond the 3-point line.“Danny gave it to me right at the top of the key and right in my (shooting) pocket. I was looking for the high-w, so I was looking for Robert (Mara) cutting to the hoop, but it wasn’t there.” So McNellis popped the shot from the right wing and set off bedlam as South’s sizable student

section stormed the court. “It’s a good way to finish off my career against Downers North. “He gave it to me right at the top of the key right in my pocket and it was easy from there. We were looking for the high low with Rob (Mara) coming up, but there was less time than we thought, so I put it up and you know the story from there.” The story was a sea of blueclad Mustang students swarmed the court and piled on the game’s hero. “It was a good way to finish my career against North as a senior,” McNellis said. “It was good to celebrate with all my teammates and having a lot of fans there. It was a really fun game. I was right in the middle of that big pile. I wish I could have got some of

my teammates in there, and they tried, there was just no getting through that big wall.” McNellis led the Mustangs

with 12 points, while Spinuzza added eight and Mara chipped in seven. Nick Norton paced the Trojans

with a game-high 13 points. Deivis Skirgaila and Garret Tierney added six points each. mark@buglenewspapers.com

Travel

Sleeping alternatives: Bunking with locals These days, when I travel to Europe, I usually sleep in hotel rooms or bed-and-breakfasts. But in my early travel days, I routinely found places where I could sleep for free or very cheap. In Austria, I had “dear parents” who were actually the parents of my sister’s ski instructor. In London, my hosts were friends of my uncle.Neither relationship was terribly close - until I visited. Now we are friends for life. I love the idea of creatively finding a free or cheap bed in Europe. One of the best ways to do that is to stay in someone’s home, whether you’re renting a spare room or apartment, or crashing on your neighbor’s cousin’s couch. Sleeping where the locals do can provide some of the richest and most memorable travel experiences - often for less than a hotel. You don’t actually need to know someone in Europe to stay at their home. Room-finding services like Airbnb.com can help travelers hook up with locals. Beds range from air-mattress-in-living-room basic to plush-B-and-B-suite posh. Most listings offer you at least a spare room, and many are for entire apartments. Some places offer separate entrances for travelers who want more privacy and limited interaction with their hosts. If you prefer having the comforts of home without the pressure of feeling like a houseguest, renting an apartment, house or villa can be both convenient and costeffective. Options run the gamut, from French gites to Tuscan villas to big-city apartments in the heart of town. A short-term rental is often cheaper than, or comparable to, a hotel, especially if you plan to settle in one location for several nights. Most are equipped with kitchens, laundry, and living rooms, making them especially good for groups and families. Travelers who are willing to invest time in research can go to sites like HomeAway.com and its sister site VRBO.com, search through a database of listings, then correspond directly with European property owners or managers to negotiate a deal. Those who want to do less legwork can seek help from a

rental agency, which charges a fee but provides pre-screened listings and a staff who will work with you to find an appropriate accommodation. Rental agencies such as Interhome.us and the more upscale Rentavilla.com list places all over Europe, and there are many rental agencies that focus on a specific city or region. The rental route isn’t for everyone. First off, you’re generally on your own.While the apartment owner or manager might offer some basic assistance, they don’t provide all the services of a hotel reception desk. Unlike hotels, apartments don’t include daily towel and sheet changes or regular cleanings. CouchSurfing.org is a vagabond’s alternative to Airbnb. It lists millions of members who host fellow “surfers” in their homes for free. Most do this out of a sincere desire to meet interesting people, and many are in it for the good karma, having couch-surfed themselves. This service is a boon for laidback, budget-minded extroverts who aren’t too picky about where they rest their head. Safety is a concern for any smart couch surfer. My best tip for crashing with strangers: Always arrive with a backup in mind (such as the name of a hostel). If you don’t feel comfortable with your host, just leave. Don’t worry about hurting their feelings. Never let budget concerns take you outside your comfort zone. House swapping is another free option. This works best for people with an appealing place to offer, and who can live with the idea of having strangers in their home. Unsurprisingly, those living in swanky Manhattan apartments and beachside villas have the best pick of options in Europe, but you don’t need to live in an amazing home to find a workable exchange. Good places to start are HomeLink (www. homelink.org/usa), HomeExchange (www.homeexchange.com) or Intervac Home Exchange (www. intervacus.com). Of course, there’s nothing more culturally intimate (or inexpensive) as staying with a friend, relative, or someone you have a connection with. They don’t need to be nextof-kin.

Real Estate & Business

Communication key to managing stupid people tricks Q. My organization has tripled the number of employees I supervise, and I’m exhausted with how many stupid mistakes they make. I make every effort to train them and yet they still manage to misunderstand nearly everything I say. How can I make the job to clear to them and not waste so much time with their mistakes? A. You can save time by making sure your verbal and written training is exhaustively specific and clear. Consider the manufacturer’s safety warnings that state something like, “Warning: do not jump off a cliff with this product.” The

manufacturers assume if they don’t consider every possible mistake, people could make they will get sued. You probably won’t get sued by a new employee but you will waste a lot of time and annoyance. Therefore, you want to state every single thing you can think of that a new employee could do wrong and prevent it. Make a list of common mistakes that drive you crazy. Now make a thorough list of how employees can start out avoiding these behaviors. If you assume anything an employee can do wrong - and will do wrong - you’ll be better

at supervising new people. Make sure you use every sensory modality. Some people learn by seeing, some by hearing, and some by doing. Make sure each employee has seen, heard and done what you want when training. Research indicates that most of us take at least three times to learn any new skill. If you don’t want to show new employees a skill repeatedly, then assign other employees to mentor your new staff. The older employees get to refine their skills, you save time, and the new employee gets the repetition. Most of my clients tell me they never had any training on the practical daily realities of supervising human beings.People who make it into management

are often quick to learn, highly responsible and ambitious. They assume everyone they hire is just like them. Expecting all new employees to be just like you is a recipe for misery. Consider that your expectations about others at work may be the biggest source of your unhappiness with your job. If you expect (like the manufacturer’s safety warnings) that people will amaze you with the mistakes they are capable of making, you’ll be more prepared and less upset. Once you have rewritten and revised your training approach, run it by a few eighth graders you know. If it is simple enough to make perfect sense to your average eighth grader, keep it. If not, back to the drawing board

to clarify and simplify.

The last word(s) Q. I have a coworker who says really rude stuff in meetings. I’ve been confronting him, and my boss says I’m creating a hostile workplace. Am I wrong? A. No, but you are jeopardizing your job. Let your boss tackle this guy; you cannot supervise a coworker.

How to set up kid’s car insurance? Dear Dave, I’m divorced and have a teenager who will be driving soon. What would be the best way to set up insurance for the child? Mike Dear Mike, I suppose a breakup does change the dynamic somewhat, but with my kids I simply left the car in my name and paid the extra insurance cost for a little while. For me, still being in control of the car as a dad outweighed the additional money I was paying in premiums.

Having a minor child running around in the world with his or her name on a car title is not a good plan. Then, when they turned 18, I put each of their cars into their names. This, of course, was dependent on them behaving and acting responsibly. They were legally liable at that age too. I’m sure the insurance costs went up, but at that point the financial risk and liability factors were on them, not me. In this kind of situation, especially because there’s more

of a potential for disagreements, I think I’d do it that way. Just put it in your name for now, especially if you’re putting money toward the purchase of a vehicle. —Dave

Where to put the 15%? Dear Dave, My employer recently stopped matching my 401(k) contributions. Together, my husband and I make about $100,000 a year. Should I continue to invest in this option, or should I put money into an IRA? Linda Dear Linda, If possible, I would put 100 percent of my retirement savings into a Roth IRA with good,growth stock mutual funds before messing with a non-matching 401(k). But remember, my goal if you follow the Baby Steps is to be debt-free except for your home, and have an emergency fund of three to six months of expenses, before you begin setting aside for retirement. These are the steps that allow you to be prepared for emergencies and free up your largest wealth-building tool, which is your income. With your income, both you and your husband could open Roth IRAs and contribute $5,500 each in 2013. That’s a total of $11,000 toward retirement next year, and it’s only 11 percent of your income. With this in mind, I’d advise going ahead with your 401(k)s after your Roth IRAs are in place.
