Giannoulias Encourages FDA to Review Harmful Chemicals in Food Supply Ahead of a public meeting to discuss food safety, Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias is advocating that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) develop a post-market assessment program to test harmful chemicals in our food supply.

The “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS) designation currently allows food manufacturers – not the FDA – to decide if chemical additives are safe for consumption. This legal loophole has allowed food dyes, preservatives and other chemicals to be placed on store shelves with little to no oversight from the FDA, the federal agency tasked with ensuring food is safe. Many of these GRAS ingredients have been linked to serious health problems, including hyperactivity, nervous system damage, reproductive issues, hormonal damage and increased risk of cancer.

“Allowing the company that produces the ultra-processed food to decide if a chemical is safe, without having to inform the FDA, makes no sense and it adds up to a dangerous game for American families to play,” Giannoulias said. “Developing a rigorous review program that puts our health first and addresses the impact of chemicals in our food will go a long way to holding food manufacturers accountable and restoring trust and confidence in the FDA.” The Secretary of State oversees Illinois’ organ donation registry, which is one of the largest in the nation. Studies have shown that organ damage and failure is a consequence of the health risks associated with chemical additives, particularly in children. Keeping donors’ organs healthy for individuals suffering from life-threatening diseases or injuries who need transplants is critical.

Many food chemicals have never been meaningfully reassessed for safety, even if they were approved decades ago and new science

has since demonstrated potential harms. Instead, the product is brought straight to market for human consumption without a systematic health and safety review. According to a 2022 Environmental Working Group analysis, “since 2000, food and chemical companies have petitioned the FDA only 10 times to approve a new substance. By contrast, for 756 of 766 new food chemicals added to the food supply since then, or 98.7 percent, these companies have exploited a loophole for substances that are ‘generally recognized as safe,’ or GRAS.” During the past year, the FDA has undergone a major reorganization of its Human Foods Program and established the Office of Food Chemical Safety, Dietary Supplements and Innovation. Additional steps have been taken including the development of an enhanced systematic process for the post-market assessment of chemicals in foods, slated for a discussion at a public meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 25th.

European and other nations have outlawed many GRAS chemicals and mandate that corporations formulate their products with safer alternatives. In the U.S., California recently passed a law that outlaws several harmful chemicals in the food supply that goes into effect in 2027.

Last year, Secretary Giannoulias, with the help of State Senator Willie Preston (16th District—Chicago) and State Representative Anne Stava-Murray (81st District —Downers Grove), introduced The Illinois Food Safety Act (SB 2637) which seeks to ban the sale of foods in Illinois containing chemical additives that have been linked to health issues.

Speaking Of Seniors

Fighting Payment “Skimming” WOODROW WILCOX On August 26, 2024, I sent a letter to a medical service provider for a client from Crown Point, Indiana. With some editing to protect privacy, here is the letter that I sent about the bill from the medical firm.

You sent a bill to our client and he forwarded it to our office. He asked us to check your bill to him for accuracy. I checked with the client’s Medicare supplement insurance company about your bill. Your bill is false. Here is why.

For Date Of Service (DOS) 04/04/24, the original charge was $637 and you billed a balance of $32.41. But the insurance company sent you that balance on 04/29/24 and the tracking confirmation number is KXXXXXXXXXX. For DOS 04/08/24, the original charge was $527 and you billed a balance of $19.10.

But the insurance company sent you that balance in the same payment as the previous one mentioned.

For DOS 04/11/24, the original charge was $527 and you billed a balance of 0.06 (six cents). But the insurance company sent you a payment of $19.10 on 05/06/24 and the tracking confirmation number is KXXXXXXXXXX. or DOS 04/18/24, the original charge was $527 and you billed a balance of 0.99 (ninety-nine cents).

But the insurance company sent you a payment of $19.10 on

05/13/24 and the tracking confirmation number is KXXXXXXXXXX. This seems to be a pattern of someone within your billing department “skimming” payments by insurance companies to cause a false bill with a balance for a patient.

“Skimming” is a way to redirect a payment to an account that the skimmer wants to enlarge. That is what I suspect is causing the problem. If you need help finding the money, phone the insurance company at 972-XXX-XXXX. Stop billing our client a false balance.

All the help that I gave this client was FREE OF CHARGE. This insurance agency helps all our clients with such matters without charging anything to demonstrate to our clients that we really do care for them.

If your insurance agent or agency does not give this high level of customer service, why not switch to an insurance agency that does?

This one does.

Note: Woodrow Wilcox is the senior medical bill case worker at Senior Care Insurance Services in Merrillville, Indiana.

He has saved clients of that firm over three million dollars by fighting mistakes and fraud in medical billing. Also, Wilcox wrote the book SOLVING MEDICARE PROBLEM$ which can be ordered at book stores or online.

A great tip in time management and accomplishing goals is to give yourself a HIGH FIVE! Not the high five with your palm hand open in the air but give yourself a list of the top high five things you NEED to get done. Work on the top five things that will produce the most improvement, success, and difference in your goals. This sounds great, but how do you know what five things to work on? Managing your time effectively can be the key to productivity by identifying your top priorities, focusing on them for maximum productivity, and motivating you for achievement.

Step 1: Write down 15-20 goals or tasks for the day: The first step is to write down everything you need to do. It doesn’t matter if they are short or long-term, or small or large items to tackle, write them down. It could be anything from paying bills to launching a new project at work.

Write down all your tasks and goals in one place. (Google Keep Notes is a good app that allows checkboxes to mark items completed.)

Writing down and reviewing your lists often has a powerful effect on your mind as it will enable you to see what you’re working on and provide a clearer perspective on what needs to be done.

Step 2: Determine which tasks have the greatest impact: Now, it’s time to prioritize. Review the list and ask yourself which tasks or goals will make the greatest impact on your life today. Look for urgent tasks such as paying bills or a work deadline. Also, consider tasks for short-term and long-term success such as starting a small business, organizing your finances, or working on a project. Then ask yourself two questions: 1. What needs to be done today?

2. What one or two critical tasks will bring me closer to achieving my long-term goals?

For example, if you’re working on starting a business, filing for a business license is crucial.

Doing household chores like laundry doesn’t seem life-changing but it’s an important task

that needs to be done to organize your living area to reduce stress.

Step 3: Narrow the lists to the HIGH FIVE priorities: Select the five tasks that are the most urgent and will have the greatest impact. These five are the tasks that you should focus on for the day. There should be a combination of things you must get done and tasks for long-term goals. The other items are not unimportant, but focusing on the 5 will ensure making meaningful progress. If you finish your high five, then work on the next five items (6-10).

The main takeaway is to use your time and energy on the tasks that will make the biggest difference and the most urgent.

Step 4: Make smaller steps: Break the tasks and goals into smaller activities so it’s not overwhelming and focus on more manageable tasks. Don’t list broad tasks or goals such as organizing the house. Break it down to cleaning each room separately or filing business license paperwork. When completed this will create a sense of accomplishment.

Step 5: Purposefully eliminate distractions: It’s time to put the phone down and stop talking or surfing the web. Set time blocks to focus and work on tasks. Do one task at a time.

Multitasking reduces your concentration, and you get less done. Distractions also get you off task. The more you direct your focus on the tasks, the faster and easier for you to complete your tasks. Take short breaks to revitalize you.

Prioritizing the HIGH FIVE daily can improve your productivity. By focusing on the top five you will get more done and move closer to your goals. The key to time management is about getting the right things done. The power of prioritizing can help you achieve success in both the short and long-term goals. So, give yourself a high five and get your list done. Y? Why Not! Like me on Facebook https://www.facebook. com/ywhynotshow/

Giannoulias Awards $28 Million in Library and Literacy Grants Illinois Secretary of State and State Librarian Alexi Giannoulias has awarded nearly $22 million for library services and $6 million for literacy programs throughout the state.

The grants for library services include funding to enhance online catalogues, support day-to-day operations, expand interlibrary loan programs and equip vision-impaired individuals with narrations of newspaper content. The literacy grants are designed to promote basic reading, math, writing and English language skills.

“Equipping our libraries with the resources they need to increase services and expand offerings is essential to enhancing the accessibility of learning materials for all Illinois residents regardless of their geographic location, accessibility needs, income status or educational level,” Giannoulias said.

“Meanwhile, increasing the state’s literacy level results in opportunities for individual success and makes communities stronger.”

While libraries in other states face attempts to significantly decrease budgets, reduce hours and services, and restrict materials, Illinois libraries have received more than $104 million in grant funds to expand library services under Giannoulias’ administration during the past 18 months.

The most recent grant funding includes: • More than $18 million allocated to library systems across the state. Libraries systems use this funding to support day-today operations and assure resource sharing occurs between public, school, academic and special libraries, which enables library

patrons across Illinois to request materials from any participating library free-ofcharge. Last fiscal year, more than 11 million items were shared between libraries throughout the state.

• Nearly $5.8 million in literacy grants that support adult, family and workplace literacy programs awarded to volunteer organizations, community colleges and school districts, and not-for-profit entities.

• More than $2.3 million to expand online catalogues and interlibrary resource sharing between public, school, academic, and special libraries, providing more variety in the types of resources Illinoisans can access.

• More than $500,000 for technologyfocused mentorship programs at public libraries to help middle and high school students.

• More than $350,000 to provide narration of local newspaper content to individuals who cannot read standard print material due to visibility challenges or other accessibility needs.

• Nearly $50,000 to support veteran’s home libraries that provide books, magazines, computers and internet access to veterans in long-term care and their spouses.

The Secretary of State’s office awarded grants for library and literacy programs using combined state funds and federal Library Services and Technology Act funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

Heart Smart JOSH BOOTSMA Don’t we sometimes treat God like a vending machine?

Put some money in, get a quick treat. Say a few prayers and get what you want. If something gets stuck, give it a little shake and watch your blessing fall into reach.

Our God is not a God that wants to have a transaction with you. He wants to have a relationship with you. He’s not content to be on your spiritual speed dial only for when you need a quick fix. He wants to be in every part of your life, to develop a deep, profound closeness with you, and walk beside you every day of your life.

In John 15:5, Jesus says, “I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.”

Jesus is telling us to be present with him and live our lives for him — that’s what abide means! He says anyone who does that will be like a healthy branch — fruitful, full of life, and connected to the main vine, from which it derives everything it needs.

I really like this message of abiding and Christian contentment in the song “Daily Bread” by Kari Jobe and Pat Barrett. Here’s a part of the chorus of that song: You are our daily bread, You are our daily bread And we will seek Your face before we seek Your hand You are our daily bread, You are our daily bread And we desire You before the Promised Land Let our prayer be that we seek God’s face before his hand.

Let us desire God himself even more than his promises. He is our portion, he is our vine, he is our loving God! Josh Bootsma Member, Covenant Fellowship Church cfcsh.org

Bullying and Suicide: What is the Connection?

We have all heard the stories of bullied teens taking their own lives. Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death for youth ages 10-18. It is also the 5th leading cause of death for children ages 6-12, and, in many cases, bullying can be a catalyst. Studies have shown that bullying aggravates depression and increases suicide risk for both the victim and the perpetrator. When kids who are at risk for suicide because of depression or other mental health issues experience bullying, the results can be disastrous.

The Youth Risk Behavior Survey takes place annually every two years in middle and high schools nationwide. The latest results on bullying have come out for 2023. 21% of female students and 12% of male students reported cyberbullying in the past year. 22% of females and 17% of males endured bullying at school. Nearly 3 in 10 LGBTQ+ students encountered bullying at school.

Cyberbullying happens via technology and can be just as devastating as in-person bullying. It is repetitive aggressive behavior that targets a victim. Often, this can lead a victim to a feeling of negative self-worth. Since the bullies are usually anonymous, the victim has no idea of who is behind all the threats. This bullying can create low self-esteem, loneliness, and a drop in school grades.

Parents can help prevent cyberbullying by opening a dialogue about it, limiting data access, knowing their children’s passwords, and enforcing internet rules. New research done by The Journal of Child and Family Studies identifies that certain positive parenting practices have a profound effect on both school bullying and cyberbullying. This includes a surplus of warmth, autonomy/support, and structure.

If your child has been the victim of bullying and you have noticed a change in their mental health as a result, get help now.

The 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is a free resource available 24 hours a day. Call or text 988 if you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis.

The Jason Foundation is another valuable resource. JFI is dedicated to the awareness and prevention of youth suicide through educational programs that equip youth, parents, educators, and the community with the tools and resources to identify and assist at-risk youth. Visit www.jasonfoundation.com to learn more about youth suicide, the warning signs, and how you can make a difference.

Assessor’s Office Hosts Real Estate “Advancing Latino Questions & Answers Homeownership” Event Real Estate Specialists

CATHY & JIM HIGGINS Question. We have decided to sell our home of 40 years. We don’t have the funds to remodel our home. We do have a newer roof and furnace. We are hoping these two updates will add some value to our home. We have many memories here so we don’t want to give it away. Any suggestions?

Answer. You have made your house a home by raising your Family here and creating priceless memories. That will never change. But, if you haven’t updated in 40 years, your home will not be priceless to potential buyers because you cannot compete with homes that have been updated, and you can be assured that the appraiser will agree!

A newer furnace and roof are home essentials & are assumed to be in good condition.

These will not add value, but will give you an advantage over a home with OLDER essentials.

Here are a few things you can do to add value at a minimum expense. The exterior is your home’s first impression. Get a bucket of soap & water. Have some fun while cleaning.

Throw on your Bermuda shorts, rent a power washer & hit the deck, stairs & gutters.

Make your walkways sparkle- Wizard of Oz style. Add curb appeal by cutting & edging your lawn for a very clean look. Add color to your exterior with flowers and bushes. Can’t

afford to paint the exterior? Paint shutters, doors & trim. Tack on some new address digits to keep things classy.

In terms of selling, the Kitchen is the most important room. Add new hardware to cabinet doors. Make the Kitchen look Sparkling clean. Bathrooms can help sell a home. How about adding a new toilet seat, shower curtains and rugs? Also, remember these 2 important words: “Sparkling Clean.”

How about some new switch covers? Dump the orange carpet and expose those nice Hardwood floors.

All these inexpensive touches can make your home stand out from the competition.

Sharp homes sell faster and for more money than average homes. Don’t forget about painting the interior too. Bold colors do not mean beautiful. In fact, they devalue a home.

Stick to neutral colors and be sure to stay away from white walls! It’s a home, not a Laboratory!

Bad Credit OK!

For the latest installment in its ongoing Racial Equity and Real Estate series, the Cook County Assessor’s Office hosted an event on “Advancing Latino Homeownership” this Wednesday, September 25.

Held at Northeastern Illinois University (NEIU), the program featured real estate professionals, elected officials and academic experts discussing the growth of homeownership in the Latino community, as well as remaining barriers to access and equity.

“These conversations are necessary to enact change and reform policy,” said Cook County Assessor Fritz Kaegi. “This is our first in the series to focus on housing issues facing the Latino community in Chicagoland. We’re pleased to host it during Hispanic Heritage Month, which is a time to honor and celebrate the contributions made by Latinos in our great country.”

Dr. Katrina E. Bell-Jordan, President of NEIU, introduced the event, and Alderperson Jessie Fuentes (26th Ward) delivered the keynote address.

“I represent a community that has been resisting gentrification, but only hanging on by a thread,” said Ald. Fuentes. “How do you combat a system of gentrification and displacement? How do you account for the trauma that it creates?”

In addition to a networking session, the event featured two panels. “Advancing Latino Homeownership: assessments, policy, gentrification, real estate” was moderated

by Hugo Balta, Publisher of Illinois Latino News. Participants included Assessor Kaegi; Norma Hernandez, Illinois State Representative (77th District); John Schlichtman, DePaul University Professor and author of Gentrifier;

David Dominguez, CEO of Chicago Realty; and Gerardo Ravelo, Home Purchase and Financial Empowerment Program Manager, The Resurrection Project.

“The challenges are there still. Communities still face barriers when it comes to language, the process – there’s a culture where our community doesn’t trust the banks,” said Ravelo. “What I’m seeing are multiple generations, multiple families, coming together to pitch in so they can purchase that dream home.”

“Our people are buying homes. For the age group of 18 to 24 in the western suburbs, 20.8% of Latinos own homes compared to our white counterparts at 11.8%. So our younger population has a higher rate of being homeowners than any other ethnic demographic,” said Rep. Hernandez. “The farther out of the Chicago region that Latinos are moving to, the more likely they are to be homeowners.”

The second panel, “Access and Barriers to Homeownership,” was moderated by Laura Rodríguez Presa, Senior Journalist at the Chicago Tribune. Panelists included Jacqueline Pereda, Berwyn Township Assessor; Victoria Villalpando Weissman, Deputy Communications Director in the Office of the Governor of Illinois; Liza Irazoque, Real Estate Broker, RE/MAX Premier and Government Affairs Director for NAHREP Chicago; and Emilio Carrasquillo, Program Manager with the Spanish Coalition for Housing.

“There are a lot of misconceptions in the homebuying process,” said Irazoque. “But I always say ‘knowledge is power.’ Sit down with someone you feel comfortable with, that will give you the guidance to purchase that home.”

Fall is here!

Illinois Principals Association encourages principal appreciation in October SPRINGFIELD, Illinois – The Illinois Principals Association (IPA) encourages communities to celebrate Principal Appreciation Week October 20-26, 2024, and Principal Appreciation Day on October 25 to highlight the dedication of principals, assistant principals, and deans. This annual recognition has been recognized

by Illinois governors since 1990. October is also National Principals Month, supported by the IPA, National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP), the National Association of Elementary School Principals (NAESP), and the American Federation of School Administrators (AFSA).

Cris Edwards, IPA president and principal of Richland County Elementary School in Olney, shared: “Whether this is a principal’s very first year, last year, or somewhere in the middle, Illinois is celebrating these leaders for all they do for children. As ‘legacy builders’ we are constantly mentoring others; helping students to find their voice or their career path, supporting paraprofessionals

who want to return to school to become a teacher, and encouraging teachers that are thinking about becoming an administrator.

Thank you to all the leaders across Illinois for your unwavering commitment and for building a legacy that will inspire generations to come. I am excited to thank you and celebrate you during National Principals Month!”

“This year, we celebrate our state’s school leaders for what they do – build a lasting legacy with those they serve,” said Dr. Jason Leahy, IPA executive director. “These courageous individuals lead their learning organizations with optimism, humility, vision, perseverance, and a deep commitment to do what is best for their students. Both research and common sense tell us how critical these servants are to positively influence young people, teachers, and communities. For this, they deserve our respect and gratitude.”

IPA invites teachers, students, parents, and community members to show appreciation for school leaders on October 25.

With the Chicago region in a moderate drought, how will fall colors be impacted?

With the Chicago region experiencing an official moderate drought, the tree experts at The Morton Arboretum say it is still too early to tell how it will impact the timing and vibrancy of peak fall leaf color changes.

“As the fall season progresses and temperatures get colder, dayto-day weather conditions will play a very strong role in when trees change color and how long leaves stay on,” said Arboretum Forest Ecologist Christy Rollinson, Ph.D. The region’s lack of moisture triggered early fall color in some trees, including walnut, honey locust and other drought-sensitive species, such as certain birches, Rollinson said. These trees have shown mostly yellow leaves, with some individual leaves already shedding. Some trees and seedlings also have shriveled green leaves.

“Trees that are in stressful locations like parking lots or those that haven’t gotten extra water over the past several weeks are the ones most likely to be changing color early,” Rollinson said.

Trees that have already turned color and are losing leaves will likely continue to do so. Receiving more rain would help slow the leaf-changing process in trees that are partially turned or have yet to turn, she said.

“Typically, once we are in drought, we need several good, soaking rains—more than a single downpour—to recharge soil moisture and ease the dry conditions,” Rollinson said. “In general, we expect the recent rain we’ve gotten to help slow

year, they dedicate thousands of hours to building and repairing homes for those who have served. Habitat for Humanity of NWI is proud to partner with Home Depot for this special project that will provide a safe and affordable home for a veteran and celebrate the community spirit and dedication of local businesses.

Dawn Michaels, Executive Director for Habitat for Humanity of NWI, said, “We are deeply grateful to Home Depot and their associates for their support in this build. Their dedication to veterans mirrors our commitment to helping those who have served by providing them with the opportunity for homeownership. Together, we are building not just a home, but a future of stability for a veteran family.”

down the overall progression of color changes. If we have warm weather over the next few weeks, that will also likely delay peak color somewhat.”

The Arboretum, which has tree collections containing nearly 4,100 different plants, has a long fall-color season to both enjoy and study, as tree species change color at various times. Arboretum visitors can track fall colors as they emerge throughout its 1,700 acres in a weekly Fall Color Report on its website.

Fall Color Festival The fall season marks the start of the Arboretum’s annual Fall Color Festival, with festivities for all ages throughout October.

Special events include the Cider and Ale Festival, Oct. 5; 14th Annual Glass Pumpkin Patch, Oct. 11 through 13; Fall Color 5K Run and Walk, Oct. 26; Walking Plays: “The Grimmest of Tales,” weekends Sept. 28 through Oct. 27; and the Señorita Mariposa Story Walk, daily through Oct. 31.

Seasonal concessions will also be available on weekends in October and Oct. 14 (Columbus Day/Indigenous Peoples’ Day) outside the Visitor Center, including apple cider doughnuts, taffy apples, cotton candy, warm kettle corn, warm pretzels, chili and a selection of craft beers and warm beverages.

The Fall Color Festival is generously supported by GreenState Credit Union and Morton Salt, Inc. For more information about Arboretum programs and special events, visit mortonarb.org.
