VILLA PARK – The Save the Deicke Home Dance on Saturday raised more than $16,000 that will help the nonprofit keep its doors open a little longer.

The dance was hosted by the Villa Park Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2801 and included dinner, live music and dancing.

The Deicke Home, 1005 E. Division St, in Lombard, is

a group residential home for adults with developmental disabilities. The home recently announced that it is in jeopardy of closing. For the past few months, the community, including schools, has rallied to raise money for the home.

The home was initially set to close March 31, but as of last week, the home announced it had raised enough money to remain open through July.

The Deicke Home has been open since 1983.

Village tries to adopt Grace Street for $7.8M project

By MATTHEW PIECHALAK mpiechalak@shawmedia.com LOMBARD – The Village of Lombard has filed a formal petition with the Illinois Department of Transportation requesting a jurisdictional transfer of about a mile of Grace Street on the village’s north side.

Approval of the transfer would allow the village to move forward with a proposed $7.8 million infrastructure project between St. Charles Road and North Avenue. The project would include water and sewer improvements as well as sidewalk, surface, curb and streetlight improvements.

The village filed the petition in January, Lombard Village Manager Scott Niehaus said. There is no timetable when a potential transfer could be made.

“We will follow up with IDOT frequently to make sure it’s getting processed,” Niehaus said.

Lombard’s Public Works

Matthew Piechalak - mpiechalak@shawmedia.com

Motorists drive past construction road horses on Grace Street near Greenfield Street in Lombard.

Department receives a couple of complaints each day, mainly regarding potholes along Grace Street, said Carl Goldsmith, Lombard’s public works director.

The village has maintained repairs on the roadway, but does not have formal jurisdiction.

“The road has deteriorated significantly over the winter,

but it had deficiencies prior to that,” Goldsmith said.

The jurisdictional transfer would allow the village to address the various utility improvements that need to be done, including sewer and water main issues.

Requesting that IDOT repair the roadway would also push the timetable, as the project would compete with larger projects that include roads with higher traffic counts.

If the jurisdictional transfer is approved, the village will seek federal funding through the Surface Transportation Program to cover 70 percent of the project costs. The village would be responsible for the remaining 30 percent of the cost and all expenses related to engineering services.

“It’s going to be an expensive rebuild, and in order to qualify for federal funding, we have to show that the route belongs to us,” Niehaus said.

The transfer process is governed by Illinois Compiled Statutes and involves the state highway system, meaning IDOT must be an executor of the agreement.

In the short term, the village’s public works department will continue to patch the roadway. Crews have been placing cold patch throughout the winter and will make permanent repairs in the spring, Goldsmith said.

SUNGLASSES: BEYOND UV PROTECTION In order to provide your eyes with adequate protection against potentially harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, sunglasses should say “99-100% UV absorbent” or “UV 400” on their labels. Beyond that, there are several features unrelated to UV protection that may also prove helpful. For instance, polarized lenses cut down on glare caused by light reflected off water and ice. Mirrored lenses can also be helpful in very bright conditions. Photochromic lenses, which lighten and darken in accordance with the ambient light, make it easier to go indoors with your sunglasses still on. Gradient lenses are shaded darker at the top than bottom, which helps shield light from above while making it easier to see the horizon and below.

Whether you need prescription eyewear or non-prescription sunglasses or safety glasses, there is a wide selection to choose from at SKOWRON EYE CARE. Some of our brands include Ray Ban, Fossil, Gucci, Silhouette, Nine West, Juicy Couture, Coach, Maui Jim, and Cole Haan. We are happy to help you select the eyewear that fits properly and is right for your face shape and skin tone. To schedule an appointment, please give us a call today. At Skowron Eye Care, our mission is your vision.

P.S. Photochromic lenses are well suited to individuals who wear prescription lenses and do not want to switch to prescription sunglasses when they go outdoors.

LOMBARD – A $2.034 million reconstruction project will repair pavement, curbs, sidewalks, drainage and streetlights along Chase Lane and Chase Court near Madison Meadows Park in Lombard.

The Lombard Village Board of Trustees on March 6 voted unanimously to approve a contract with Melrose Park-based Cerniglia Company, Inc. for the Lombard Meadows – Phase I project, which includes Chase Lane from Lilac Way to the park and the Chase Court cul de sac.

Cerniglia offered the lowest of five final bids – there were 26 bidders and subcontractors overall that purchased bid documents. The village will pay for the project using $1.076 million from the Capital Projects Fund and $957,562 from the village’s Sewer and Water Capi-

Project timeline 1st phase: Chase Lane and Chase Court (2014) 2nd phase: Lodge Lane and Lilac Way (2015) 3rd phase: Magnolia Circle (2016) 4th phase: Hawthorne Circle and Cherry Lane (2017) 5th phase: Lombard Circle (2018)

tal Reserve Fund.

Phase I of the project will include the removal and replacement of existing pavement, curbs and sidewalks, as well as the replacement of manholes, streetlights and portions of the water and sewer pipes that need to be repaired.

An 8-inch water main connection will also be installed from Madison Street to Lodge Lane.

Q&A | DUPAGE COUNTY BOARD DISTRICT 4

Candidates talk drugs, stormwater In preparation for the March 18 primary election, Suburban Life Media contacted local candidates to gauge their views on various issues.

Below are the responses received from Republicans Ronald Almiron, Grant Eckhoff and Paula McGowen and Democrats Jeremy Custer and

Moon Khan are running in the Democratic race for DuPage County Board District 4.

- Suburban Life Media

REPUBLICANS

Ronald Almiron Age: 47 Town: Wheaton Why are you running for election?

Almiron: District 4 needs new leadership on the County Board. Many county residents I’ve spoken with are dissatisfied with the lack of responsiveness to their needs. I am not burdened with tending to all the special interests and political connections accumulated over 10 years in this office. District 4 voters are dissatisfied with establishment politics. I’m the only candidate offering a fresh perspective and conservative approach to decision making that puts individuals and families first.

What’s the biggest issue facing your district, and how will you address it if elected?

Almiron: Voters want fairness and value for their tax dollar. I want to make sure the highest quality services are offered to the county residents efficiently. I will take the current consolidation effort one step further. I will explore outsourcing and privatization of certain services to lessen spending while saving more money for the District 4 taxpayer.

Grant Eckhoff (incumbent)

Paula McGowen

Age: 54 Town: Wheaton

Age: 60 Town: Glen Ellyn

Why are you running for re-election?

Eckhoff: I want to continue to make a positive impact in DuPage County by being proactive in resolving issues that affect our lives. As the chairman of the Judicial Public Safety Committee, my main issues are low taxes, consolidation of government, heroin education to reduce its use and the number of overdoses, treating the mentally ill and preparation for catastrophic events.

Why are you running for election?

McGowen: I’m running for election ... because I believe there’s a leadership void on the County Board, in light of the fact that heroin overdose deaths had to reach record levels before the board took any action.

My opponent as the chairman of a drug subcommittee, which I had been appointed to, dissolved it after one meeting over six years ago. The old adage is “if you want it done right, you have to do it yourself.”

What’s the biggest issue facing your district, and how will you address it if elected?

Eckhoff: Since 2009, I have worked to advance the issue of lower taxes through the consolidation of government, starting with fire protection districts. Economic issues are requiring agencies to focus on consolidation as a way to continue to deliver essential county services at the lowest tax rate. Second, I have spearheaded the County Board’s efforts to respond to the heroin epidemic as reported by our county-wide elected officials.

What’s the biggest issue facing your district, and how will you address it if elected?

McGowen: One of the biggest issues facing my district is stormwater. We have to be prepared for the worst-case scenario with improved stormwater runoff and retention facilities. The County Board had a stormwater fee legislated against all DuPage property owners, schools, churches ... etc., without a voters referendum. ...

Who will be bearing the brunt of all these fees? Before collecting fees we need to first determine what will be the fix, if any.

Age: 25 Town: Glendale Heights

Age: 59 Town: Lombard

Why are you running for election?

Custer: As chief of staff to Sen. [Tom] Cullerton, I work on the front lines of delivering vital services and resolving issues for the residents and municipalities of DuPage County. While most ... issues I assist with are non-problematic and easy to resolve, there are times when that is not always the case [prompting] the inevitable question ... “Why does government work this way?”

My main goal ... will be to lead on reforms and initiatives that ensure this question is never asked again.

Why are you running for election?

Khan: Having engaged in the neighborhood as a community activist for over 25 years, got elected twice as York Township Trustee, served on several local municipal and civic bodies, raised my family from scratch and also worked for two DuPage County agencies, I know the problems and I can also resolve them. Saving money for taxpayers is my mission, and it can be achieved by believing in “less is more.” The county should centralize the HR, purchasing, accounting and IT functions of its autonomous bodies, and implement its proposed consolidation plans faster.

What’s the biggest issue facing your district, and how will you address it if elected?

Custer: Economic development is something the county should be leading on to help our businesses and position our municipalities to close out the decade better than it started. As the nation and state slowly come out of the depths of the worst economic cycle since the Great Depression, it is imperative that DuPage County be a regional leader in moving our economy forward. Investing infrastructure, recruiting and retaining businesses, and being an advocate for tax policies that help residents and businesses will be my main priority.

What’s the biggest issue facing your district, and how will you address it if elected?

Khan: Selecting one issue will be an injustice to numerous other problems. Issues like growing epidemic of drug use, especially heroin among youth, existence of numerous obsolete agencies, duplication of services, flooding and stormwater, lack of public transport and nonrepresentation of Asians, Hispanics, and African Americans on the County Board and committees, deserve equal and immediate attention. Having raised a youth through public schools, I know that the drug problem needs a multipronged approach.

Why are you seeking this office?

Reboletti: With Sen. [Kirk] Dillard leaving the General Assembly to run for Governor, there will be a void in leadership in the district and in DuPage County.

What are the biggest differences between yourself and your opponent?

Reboletti: The biggest differences are my experience as a leader in our caucus, my background as a prosecutor, being a small business person and temperament.

What is the biggest challenge facing Springfield?

Reboletti: The biggest issue is

The town that used to be called Utopia As I have mentioned in previous columns, one of my hobbies is the study of the history and development of municipalities which lie within the boundaries of York Township.

In past columns, I have written about Elmhurst, Lombard, and Villa Park. In this column, I will tell you about the City of Oakbrook Terrace, based on what I have learned from various sources, including the Oakbrook Terrace Historical Society and the City of Oakbrook Terrace website.

Oakbrook Terrace is a residential and commercial city located about 17 miles west of Chicago’s Loop. The current COMMUNITY mayor is Tony Ragucci.

VOICE When the Native AmerJohn W. icans who inhabited the Valle area were forced to move westward in the early 1830s, white settlers, mainly of English and later German extraction, established homesteads in the Salt Creek area. A combination creamery and cheese factory was built by Albert Knapp at what was called “the Corners” in 1873. The community that grew up around “the Corners” – now Butterfield and Midwest Roads – came to be called Utopia in 1881. The area remained agricultural well into the 20th century. Suburban growth began soon after World War II when the community was subdivided.

Commercial development was started along two major eastwest thoroughfares, Roosevelt Road and 22nd Street.

In 1958, the area that was also known as Elmhurst Countryside, and numbered 1,228 residents, voted to incorporate as Utopia by a vote of 331 to 164. In 1958, Utopia included in its acreage the proposed site of a large shopping center, but the neighboring village of Oak Brook annexed the center and its commercial properties with state approval in 1959. That year, a disappointed Utopia changed its name to Oakbrook Terrace, indicating its proximity to the soon-to-be Oak Brook Shopping Center.

In the 1980s, the community rapidly developed its commercial areas, including construction of DuPage County’s tallest office building, the 31-story Oakbrook Terrace Tower near Routes 38 and 83. Also during that decade, Drury Lane Theatre, a popular dinner playhouse, was built. Lincoln Centre, a large office complex, was constructed along Butterfield Road in the 1990s. By 2000, when population reached 2,300, most of the city’s available land had been developed for either residential or commercial purposes.

It has been my privilege to have lived in Oakbrook Terrace for more than 34 years and I am honored to have been elected to serve three terms as an alderman on the Oakbrook Terrace City Council from 1989 to 2001.

John W. Valle is supervisor of York Township.

Park View fourth-grader Lauren Iwinski didn’t let a case of nerves trip her up during the recent Kiwanis Club of Lombard spelling bee. Participating in an event she’d been looking forward to since seeing her older brother was in a bee a few years back, Iwinski took first place while going up against kids her age and older. Way to go, Lauren!

Community support in the form of donations and fundraising efforts by area organizations will keep the Deicke Home open through at least July. The nonprofit home for adults with developmental disabilities had warned that it could close as soon as March 31 without help. Here’s hoping the help keeps coming.

The village of Lisle is badly in need of some new small business developments. So it was very disturbing to see animal activists associated with the Chicago Chapter of Companion Animals, Animal Protection Society and some members of the West Suburban Humane Society in Downers Grove have succeeded in closing the Puppy Parlor in Lisle. This has been because of their annoying demonstrations, causing the Puppy Parlor to go out of business, leaving yet another vacant storefront in Lisle.

I’m sure PETA is very proud of these annoying activists’ behavior here in Lisle. A governmental investigation conducted as recently as September 2013 showed no signs of mistreatment or neglect to dogs on the Puppy Parlor property.

I’m appalled Shaw Media would endorse Bruce Rauner for the Republican governor nominee. He’s independently wealthy, yes he is. He’s got no problem accepting tons of money from his wealthy friends whom he plans to bring down with him to Springfield to pad the company coffers they all have interests in. Also, “standing up the powerful public employees unions who have resisted change” – that is a wrong statement. They resist change meaning they don’t want budgets, balanced off the backs of stealing their pensions. It’s ridiculous. This man lives in the 1 percent wealthy tax bracket.

He has no idea how everybody else lives. Just because he was a successful businessman means nothing about running a government and compromise.

It’s his way or the highway. It doesn’t work.

ELMHURST – Visitors to downtown Elmhurst on Sunday may be looking for a pot of gold as hundreds of bearded leprechauns race around town.

Racers in the inaugural Lucky Leprechaun 5K will race the streets of downtown Elmhurst beginning at 9 a.m.

Free race shirts, leprechaun hats and beards were given out to the first wave of registrants for the event.

While runners, walkers and even strollers will participate, onlookers and cheerleaders can enjoy John Corcoran playing the bagpipes across the start line. The award-winning Trinity Irish Dancers also will perform on the main stage adjacent to City Centre just after the start of the race, according to the race website.

The race steps off and finishes at York and Schiller streets, making a loop around the west side of town. The first-, second- and third-place overall finishers will be recognized as well as first-, second- and third-places in 14 age groups.

The race benefits the Elmhurst YMCA. Following the USA Track and Field certified race, a group of VIP leprechauns might be seen enjoying a free beer from 10 to 11 a.m. at Pints.

For families, the Leprechaun Lounge will be open to the public from 10 a.m to 2 p.m. for food and drinks. The lounge will be in the Fifth Third Bank parking lot directly across from Pints.

The park board will vote on the easement later this month, and the village board will vote during an April meeting, Goldsmith said.

“Our biggest concern will be managing the construction around the Fourth of July and the Taste of Lombard to make sure we keep the area clean and don’t impact those popular programs,” Niehaus said.

There are four other phases to the Lombard Meadows project, with each phase expected to be done in subsequent years, Goldsmith said.

Bringing Pharmaceutical Science to Your Health From Bob Listecki, Pharmacist

Pharmacist Bob Listecki was recently published about improved thyroid patient outcomes delivering a physiologic T4:T3 ratio

New survey finds the top 10 fittest baby boomer cities

Many of these symptoms are found in people who’s thyroid doesn’t function properly.

By Melissa Erickson More Content Now

• Brittle Nails • Cold Hands & Feet • Cold Intolerance • Constipation • Depression • Diiculty Swallowing • Dry Skin • Elevated Cholesterol

n the past, older Americans may have accepted weight gain and reduced mobility as part of aging, but not so for baby boomers.

As part of the Fit After 50 campaign, the American Physical Therapy Association and MoveForwardPT.com named the Top 10 Fittest Baby Boomer Cities in America. Where does your city fall?

The survey “examined the top 50 metropolitan areas in the U.S. to determine which cities were best suited to helping baby boomers stay healthy and fit as they age,” said Erin Wendel, senior media relations specialist with the American Physical Therapy Association.

Criteria included life expectancy, cardiovascular health and stress levels of boomers, as well as local health care and fitness resources.

The fittest cities are: 1. San Jose, Calif.

2. Minneapolis 3. San Francisco 4. Denver 5. Boston 6. Salt Lake City 7. Washington, D.C. 8. Seattle 9. San Diego 10. Raleigh, N.C. It seems where you live really can affect your health.

“Boomers who live in the fittest baby boomer cities have access to a variety of resources that can have a distinct impact on their health, but they only make a difference if they are used,” said Wendel.

The survey found significant differences between the fittest and least fit cities -- Louisville, Ky., ranked No. 50.

“The largest differences we saw between one and 50 were the percentage of people diagnosed with hypertension (47.3 percent in San Jose and 63.4 percent in Louisville, a difference of more than 16 percent); life expectancy (82.48 years in San Jose and 77.03 years in Louisville, a difference of more than five years); and the percentage of people ages 50-65 with health insurance (91.8 percent in San Jose and 85.1 percent in Louisville, a difference of 6.7 percent),” Wendel said.

The fittest cities allow boomers the opportunity to keep moving as they age.

“Parks, gyms and mass transit options in a city offer the opportunity for baby boomers to stay in motion, which physical therapists will tell you is the best way to stay young and fit,” Wendel said.

The survey found some surprises as well.

“We were a bit surprised by some of the cities in the top 10. We thought for sure we’d see one to two cities in Florida, due to the retirement population there, but we were wrong,” Wendel said.

“When you consider baby boomers are redefining what it means to age and are typically still working and leading active, healthy lifestyles, and when you examine all of the factors that played a role in determining the list, the top 10 cities make sense.”

you know someone who has a thyroid problem.

Thyroid problems are often misdiagnosed and mis-treated...and women are affected most.

This may sound familiar. Your labs come back “Normal” and yet you still feel tired, achy, cold, depressed and mentally sluggish. You may even be on thyroid hormone replacement and still have all the symptoms of hypothyroidism. Worst of all it’s difficult to get anyone to listen to you. So now what do you do?

For the last four years, Dr. Susan Kelenyi, of Glen Ellyn, IL, has been working almost exclusively with women who suffer from thyroid symptoms yet their lab tests are normal. “My practice consists mainly of women who have no where else to go. They are tired, frustrated, don’t sleep well, and overweight”, she says “What most doctors don’t understand is that close to 90% of thyroid cases are actually autoimmune in nature. The condition is called Hashimoto’s Disease and it is often missed in diagnosis.”

Hashimoto’s is an autoimmune condition (your immune system actually destroys your thyroid gland). Medical treatment often ignores the underlying immune problem and simply replaces thyroid hormone by tracking TSH levels. According to Dr. Kelenyi, this is a shortsighted approach. “Too many people still have ongoing symptoms in spite of normal TSH levels. Why? Because the underlying immune problem is not being addressed. There is no method in the medicine today that addresses Hashimoto’s other than hormone replacement for your thyroid.

This is where Dr. Kelenyi steps in. As a chiropractor with an advanced specialty in Functional Medicine and clinical nutrition, she is able to perform specific metabolic tests to determine what areas of the body are deficient or over reacting. Many of these tests could be performed by their MD but they don’t perform them. “The problem is two-fold, says Kelenyi. “First, the insurance companies don’t typically pay for many of the tests and secondly, the medical model doesn’t support the answers we get from many of the tests.

For example, we look at women’s adrenal (stress) glands with a salivary test and supplement with powerful botanicals in order to restore function. There are currently no drugs that help the adrenals work better.”

Why is a chiropractor treating thyroid disease? Dr. Kelenyi emphasizes that she is not treating the disease. “That’s what their MD is for.” she says. “The medications can be life savers and women should not take themselves off them. It’s my job to help modulate the thyroid gland and their immune system nutritionally through a Functional Medicine approach. Functional Medicine includes a lab based approach, integrating natural therapies that include lifestyle changes, to address a wide variety of chronic health problems.

What is it that Dr. Kelenyi is doing differently than your local endocrinologist? She says that food is a big part of it.

She finds that gluten can be a detrimental food for women with thyroid disease. “We now know there are proteins in gluten that cause inflammation in people with thyroid disease. But more importantly there are many other foods that can act like gluten in causing inflammation. We test for those foods with very accurate testing and can tell you what you should or should not be eating.” Our solutions are non-drug, non surgical approaches, that are research based and based on prior clinical success.

She says it is a very rewarding way of practicing. “I am one of only 400 chiropractors in the nation addressing imbalances in this manner, so we get chronically ill people coming from all over the Chicagoland area, even out of state, to our clinic. The most important thing for these patients is results. We get results.”

DRY WINTER SKIN One of the ironies of winter weather is that the cold air is so dry that it resembles desert air. Consequently, dry skin is one of winter’s itchiest conditions. Dry skin is not only an outdoor problem. Central heating, space heaters, wood stoves, and other heating devices also lead to damaged, dry, itchy skin. To counter these problems, it is important to treat skin with a daily moisturizer. Upon emerging from the shower, it also helps to rub oil into the skin all over the body before toweling off.

Dillard and Brady trade jabs, Rauner absent in debate

By NATHAN LURZ nlurz@shawmedia.com LISLE – As candidates were called to the stage for the final debate before the Republican gubernatorial primary, one podium remained empty: that of Bruce Rauner.

For the third of four recent debates, the candidate pegged by many as the frontrunner for the March 18 election was notably absent, this time March 6 at Benedictine University in Lisle.

Nonetheless, Rauner’s presence was felt, as he was the focus of several responses from state Treasurer Dan Rutherford and state senators Bill Brady, R-Bloomington, and Kirk Dillard, R-Hinsdale, during the evening.

“The truth of the matter is, what’s really going to count in this Republican primary is going to be who are the men who are standing before the hot,

him the “ultimate insider” for his past campaign involvement and donations and said his lack of experience is not what Illinois needs right now.

The two, who have been fighting for second in recent polls, hammered one another throughout.

Brady said Dillard was “unelectable” due to his history as a lobbyist, senator and alleged supporter of President Barack Obama, claiming he was a proven candidate who could bring the base.

“I’ve been tested and vetted with over $5 million in negative ads,” Brady said. “Yes, I lost by a few thousand votes and Pat Quinn had to spend $50 million of taxpayer money to have a 3 percent higher turnout in Chicago than the rest of the state, Bill Ackerman - backerman@shawmedia.com but I won 98 of 102 counties.

Dillard countered, saying Brady had already proven it searing spotlights right here the flesh, going around as the Brady said Rauner was wasn’t.

“You know, also, Bill, you in this arena,” Rutherford three of us have done here to- “dangerous” and an unknown said. “Who are the candidates night and talk to you and look who has avoided questions that are out there, pressing you in the eye?” from the public. Dillard called See DEBATE, page 28

8NEWS BRIEFS Public Works to kick off concrete rehab program LOMBARD – The Village of Lombard’s Public Works Department will conduct its annual Concrete Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Program this spring.

Work is expected to begin once weather conditions are favorable, presumably in early April. The program addresses failed or deteriorated street panels and utility dig locations on concrete streets.

Specifically, the work involves replacing concrete pavement panels and street structure adjustments. Driveway apron, curb and gutter replacement will be on an as-needed basis.

• DEBATE

Continued from page 26 were the guy who ran against Pat Quinn, who had an approval rating of 28 percent – 28 percent – on election day and you couldn’t beat him,” Dillard said. “So not everybody can beat Pat Quinn. ...

You had your chance, Bill.

You muffed it and you blew it.”

Rutherford was largely spared the sparring during the two-hour debate.

“Whoever selected the stage set-up to put me in the middle – it was probably a very good choice,” he said, of his podium between the two senators.

Restaurant reviews

Changarro adds bright notes to Mexican fusion WEST CHICAGO – Celebrating Mexican dishes on its own food pyramid with unexpected fusion twists is Changarro Cocina, a hidden gem in West Chicago well worth seeking out.

Like its stylized Aztec bird logo, it has a semi-hidden perch along Route 59 on the overpass above Roosevelt Road, tucked on the west side of a modern commercial building.

Inside the minimalist modern space is a tequila bar at the ready for Margaritas, Spanish wines and imported beer. Cocktails regularly are reinvented, and the menu shakes itself up with new specials like the recent duck confit tacos, pairing the French recipe with a Brazilian corn salsa.

But friends had recommended the grilled tilapia and guacamole tacos topped with threads of lime-infused red cabbage for a burst of bright flavor. It was delicious, and I’m just hoping the duck will be back on the menu soon for another visit.

A Chicago TV spot recently focused on Changarro’s chicken enchilada soup, and I second the recommendation.

I split a cup with my dining companion, discovering it to be a richly complex concoction of chicken, garlic, onions, sizzled corn, cheese and lusciously giant slices of ripe avocado in chicken stock flavored with enchilada sauce.

It’s just mildly spicy, which suited me to a tee on a snowy night.

The casual dining room feels airy with a high, industrial style ceiling, and warm color palette, with one wall accented with a straight line of luchador wrestling masks.

In the evening, the tables are linen covered. Our server was friendly, efficient and knowledgeable about which dishes are vegetarian. The menu also pinpoints gluten-free items.

Launching the meal were complimentary chips and two wonderful salsas, including a creamy salsa verde with great

Seniors lead Montini girls to fourth state title in program history

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com

LBS

NORMAL – It’s not often a senior class is as talented and successful as Montini’s trio of Kateri Stone, Kelly Karlis and Sara Ross.

That triumvirate led the Broncos to a fourth class 3A title in five years when Montini defeated Joliet Catholic 57-44 in the state final Saturday afternoon in Redbird Arena.

The three-girl senior class leave the program with four trophies and three state titles.

All three are signed to play for Division I programs next year.

It was easy for Karlis to pick out the best thing about winning state this year.

“Just the fact that I got to do it with my two best friends, Kateri and Sara,” Karlis said.

The Broncos took third last year after winning three titles in a row. Two years ago, a number of players transferred away, including Joliet Catholic leading scorer Jasmine Lumpkin, and their departure left some question marks around the program.

Montini coach Jason Nichols has spoken highly of the loyalty of his three seniors, and Karlis echoed those sentiments.

“We’ve been through a lot together,” Karlis said. “We played on the same travel team.”

All the time spent on the court together helped the trio, all of which were four-year varsity players, log a 138-10 record during their varsity careers.

They surpassed last year’s senior Malayna Johnson as the winningest senior class in program history by one win.

“The end result has been an unbelievable four-year career,” Nichols said. “I owe so much to those three girls.”

Montini’s Kelly Karlis (middle) and Rainey Kuykendall celebrate with their teammates after the Broncos won the Class 3A girls championship game against Joliet Catholic on Saturday. Montini won the title game 57-44.

In the final, Montini led 28-23 at halftime, but the Angels got back within 34-32 with 2:16 left in the third quarter. The Broncos put the game away by making five 3-pointers in the next five and a half minutes. Montini shot 11-for-20 on 3-pointers for the game.

Karlis led the Broncos (34-2)

with 16 points on 4-for-7 3-point shooting. Sophomore Lea Kerstein scored 13 points and Stone added 12.

In the semifinal, the Broncos survived against Burlington Central in a 34-26 win.

Montini had trailed 24-21 with less than four minutes left before going on an 11-0 run.

GIRLS SOCCER PREVIEW

Countdown to kickoff

Glenbard East, Montini look to improve; Willowbrook and AT build around returners schedule remains tough for a 1A team with tournaments at 3A schools Huntley and Glenbrook South.

The team had just three seniors on last year’s roster.

Juniors Sanchez, Jordan Bruscianelli and Carolyn Strzempek are entering their third year on varsity. Seniors Angie Luna, Kiera Johnston, Maggie Burke, Kelsey McHugh, Courtney Losik, Bridget Lucas and Pietras also have multiple years of varsity experience.

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com With a little luck of the Irish, girls soccer teams across the state will be kicking off the season on March 17, the first day games can be played. Here’s the outlook for area teams as the season gets underway.

Glenbard East Rams Coach: Kent Overbey 2013 record: 11-6-4 Top players:

Maria Berrum Corie Ewoldt Jordyn Fulton Megan Mrazek Brittany Paganucci Kelly Ravenscraft Alex Ruffer

jr. jr. jr. jr. so. sr. sr.

D D F M F D M

Addison Trail Blazers Coach: Sergio Nunez Top players:

Maria DeSantiago so.

Petra Kyriakopoulos so.

Outlook: Sophomores Maria

DeSantiago and Petra Kyriakopoulos were a big part of the Blazers last year and Kyriakopoulos even earned an all-conference selection in the West Suburban Gold.

Those two will try to help the Blazers push up the West Suburban Gold standings after they were just 1-5 in the league last year.

Outlook: The Rams have just three seniors on the roster, but that’s a little misleading.

This team won’t be using youth as an excuse considering it has eight returning starters.

East brings back 11 returners in all, led by Alex Ruffer, the first Division I player the Rams’ have produced in Kent Overbey’s tenure as coach.

Ruffer, a central midfielder headed for Western Michigan, will be the hub of the Rams’ attack.

“She does it all,” Overbey said. “She distributes, but she also gets into the attack. It’s great to have an athlete, but also a technical player like her.”

Joining Ruffer in the middle of midfield will be junior Megan Mrazek, who returns in that role.

Paganucci scored nine goals last year and is on track to be another Division I product in the program.

“She’s got all kinds of speed,” Overbey said of Paganucci. “I think her speed and her willingness to take players on on the dribble in some of these big games when you’re not seeing a ton of chances is big time. If we

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

dsantaromita@shawmedia.com

Why Karlis was selected: Karlis led the Broncos in scoring for both of the team’s games at state and helped the team win the Class 3A title.

What is your favorite part about the experience of going to state?

lot of friends on them. I knew some girls from Geneva. Just being down there with some of my best friends is great.

What did it mean to win state after taking third last year?

It’s been our goal all season. It just topped it off. Last year getting third was a disappointment. Not many places is that a disappointment.

When are you getting to campus at Ohio and what are your plans once you get there?

I’m heading down there the last week of June. I’ll be working out and doing some summer school.

A couple other teams had a

This Athlete of the Week is brought to you by

The boys basketball postseason is nearing its conclusion for big class schools, which means the end of the season even for quality teams. Both Elmhurst private schools, Timothy Christian and IC Catholic had big games on March 7, but came up short with championships on the line.

IC Catholic The Knights lost to Newman Central Catholic 65-59 in a Class 2A sectional final at Bureau Valley.

Sean Sutton scored 18 points, and Clark Brinkman and Anthony Taylor each added 12 points. Fellow senior Ross Fleming was also a big part of the team’s 23-7 record.

“We were very excited for the run,” IC coach T.J. Tyrrell said. “It was disappointing when you get so close.”

Brinkman plans to play college baseball while Taylor is still deciding on his college future and hopes to play basketball.

Winning a regional against Aurora Christian, IC’s first regional since 2008, was extra special because the Eagles beat the Knights in a regional final last year and had eliminated the IC football team in

the past two postseasons.

“We were excited to win the regional and get the monkey off our back after losing the last two by two points each,” Tyrrell said.

Sophomore Rhashaun Epting, who was the Suburban Christian Gold Player of the Year, will lead IC next season.

This season Epting averaged 19.2 points and 7.8 rebounds per game.

“Rhashaun Epting really stepped up as a leader this year stat wise,” Tyrrell said.

Fellow sophomores Will Lyles and Troy Burrows and freshman Jordan Rowell will be asked to play bigger roles on a younger team that still expects to bring back contributing players.

Next year will be IC’s first in the new Metro Suburban Conference. Tyrrell said the Knights will be in a division with current MSC schools Riverside Brookfield, Glenbard South and Fenton and current SCC schools Wheaton Academy, Aurora Central Catholic and St. Edward’s. It should be a notable step up in competition since RB is a solid Class 4A program that has won 13 straight conference titles and Wheaton Academy won the SCC Blue this year.

“The goal is still we go for 20 wins and a long playoff run,” Tyrrell said.

Timothy Christian The Trojans tested host and heavily favored St. Joseph, but ultimately lost 51-42 in a Class 3A regional final.

Timothy led by as many as seven points in the third quarter before the Chargers made a run and pulled away down the stretch.

Connor VanderBrug scored 27 points against the Chargers, who feature three players with Division I offers. VanderBrug, the Metro Suburban Conference MVP, averaged 21.8 points, 8.7 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game while shooting 48 percent from the field and 38 percent from 3-point range.

VanderBrug, along with starters Wes Ditchfield and Justin Rhiner and bench contributor Logan Byrne, leave the program after an 18-10 season.

Timothy tied for second in the Metro Suburban Conference with a 9-3 record.

“I was very proud of these guys,” TC coach Jack LeGrand said. “This team was a team that rolled up their sleeves. They bought in to what a team can do together.

Everybody filled their roles.

This was a team that didn’t care what people wrote about them. We’re just going to prove it on the court.”

Montini senior guard Kelly Karlis helped the Broncos win a Class 3A state title for the fourth time in five years and first time since the 2011-12 season. Karlis scored team-highs in points in both the semifinal (10 points) and the final (16 points). The Ohio recruit, this week’s the Oak Trust Credit Union Athlete of the Week, talked with Suburban Life sports reporter Dan Santaromita about winning state again and making up for last year’s third place finish.

The Village of Villa Park has been awarded a Hurricane "Ike" Disaster Recovery Planning and Technical Assistance Grant.

The grant is managed by the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO). The grant will cover the Village's expenses to analyze current conditions of Village's combined sewer system, evaluate needs and develop a comprehensive plan for sewer system improvements. The Village selected RJN Group, Inc. of Wheaton, Illinois to develop the addendum to the Village's Comprehensive Plan. RJN Group is in the process of finishing necessary data collection and has started working on the necessary modeling and analysis of the combined sewer system. A draft addendum to the comprehensive plan has been prepared, but needs further refinement.

The Village is planning to hold two public participation meetings before presenting the addendum to the Village Board of Trustees.

Village staff encourages Village residents to attend the public participation meeting to learn more about the planning as well as express any concerns.

Voters in Glenbard Township High School District 87 have approved a $35 million bond referendum proposal that will fund facility improvement projects at the district’s four schools.

With all precincts reporting, the referendum proposal passed with 11,238 (59 percent) “yes” votes and 7,888 (41 percent) “no” votes, according to preliminary results on the DuPage County Election Commission website.

“We are very excited to move forward,” Glenbard District 87 Superintendent David Larson said. “This is a reflection on the Glenbard communities and how they invest in our kids.”

The $35 million referendum will extend the district’s bond debt – currently due to expire in Fiscal Year 2026 – through fiscal year 2039, according to a report prepared by PMA Securities, the district’s financial adviser.

The bonds will be used to fund $8 million of projects in

The district will fund the remaining $65 million of its Master Facility Plan through its Operations and Maintenance budget, which is about $6.5 million per year. The board previously approved issuing bonds to borrow $20 million that will be paid off using that budget.

The Master Facility Plan, reviewed and approved by the Board of Education in December 2011, was developed by Legat Architects of Chicago with input from the district and community members, who participated in several months of focus groups.

A steering committee, comprised of board members, staff, faculty, administrators, students, parents and community members, was also formed to gather feedback.

Legat Architects originally identified $179 million worth of work to be completed during the plan’s 10-year cycle. However, the district scaled the plan back to $100 million after determining that the remaining $79 million of work will be addressed in the following 10 years.

Tunnel to link train station to downtown

By MATTHEW PIECHALAK mpiechalak@shawmedia.com LOMBARD – A pedestrian tunnel to be constructed this year at the Lombard Metra Station will link the train station to the village’s downtown and Lilacia Park.

“It’s going to be a much safer rail crossing,” Metra CEO Don Orseno said. “It’s huge for us and it’s huge for this community.”

Orseno was the guest speaker Wednesday afternoon at the Lombard Area Chamber of Commerce & Industry’s monthly lunch meeting. Speaking to about three dozen audience members, including Lombard officials and members of the local business community, Orseno said the 10-month project will cost just shy of $10 million, with construction slated to begin in late May after Lilac Time.

“It’s going to be a huge investment,” Orseno said during the event at Harry Caray’s

The village will contribute $300,000 for lights, cameras and other aesthetics, Niehaus said.

The project was supposed to begin last year, but a lack of funding from Metra pushed the time frame, Lombard Village trustee Dan Whittington said.

“It’s going to enhance the entire downtown feel,” Whittington said.

Accompanied by renderings of planned improvements to Lombard’s More Metra issues Metra station, Metra CEO Don Orseno speaks Wednesday at the LomOrseno touched on Metra’s bard Chamber of Commerce & Industry’s lunch at Harry Caray’s Italian regional goals for 2014 and Steakhouse in Lombard. challenged the crowd to work Ballroom inside The Westin Lombard Yorktown Center hotel.

The trains won’t stop, but the project will cause its share of construction headaches for commuters and residents living nearby, Lombard’s village

manager Scott Niehaus said, adding that the village will keep in constant contact with village residents as the project begins.

“Long term, what you’re going to have is a pedestrian walkway that connects down-

with Metra to help solicit additional capital funding.

transportation is to the communities and businesses.”

The winter weather has exposed weaknesses in train cars, some between 30 and 60 years old. Each new car costs about $3 million, and Metra also needs additional spare cars to supplement those undergoing maintenance, Orseno said.

Orseno, who was unanimously appointed CEO by the Metra board in January, acknowledged Metra’s deficiencies during the past few years, including the ousting of his predecessor, Alex Clifford, and the 2010 suicide of former chief executive Phil Pagano.

Orseno, a Chicago-area native, previously served as Metra’s interim chief when Clifford accepted a severance deal.

“There’s no question the last three years we’ve had some challenges,” Orseno said. “What we’ve managed to do is not put us in the best position with our partners and our customers.”

“We should see a lot of those delays go away,” Orseno said.

“We want to make sure our customers can go from Point A to Point B without being delayed.”

Along with purchasing additional cars and addressing safety and technological issues, Metra needs additional money to further build the system out, Orseno said.

Peter Breen grabs GOP bid from Sandra Pihos

By MATTHEW PIECHALAK mpiechalak@shawmedia.com LOMBARD – Lombard Village Trustee Peter Breen won the Republican candidacy in the general primary race for Illinois House District 48, defeating incumbent Sandra Pihos by grabbing 57 percent of the votes.

With 102 of 104 precincts reporting, Breen claimed 8,214 votes (57 percent), while Pihos garnered 6,244 (43 percent), according to preliminary results on the DuPage County Election Commission website.

“We were cautiously optimistic but what a pleasant surprise,” Breen said Tuesday

night. “It’s humbling that the people decided in such a large margin for the chance to bring new leadership to Springfield. Peter Breen I’m honored that they decided to put me in there to be the [Republican] nominee.”

Presently, there is no Democratic candidate bidding for the seat. The 48th District covers all or part of Lombard, Downers Grove, Glen Ellyn, Oakbook Terrace and Wheaton.

“We intend to continue on because they could still put somebody up – we’re not going

to take anything for granted,” Breen said.

Breen, 37, thanked his campaign – comprised strictly of volunteers. In the past weekend, his team helped cover half the district knocking on doors, and reached voters in the other half of the district by telephone, Breen said.

“Our volunteers have caught the spirit of new lead-

ership, and now the voters of the district have also caught that spirit.”

Breen was elected to the Lombard Village Board in 2011 and also served a stint as acting village president last year after the passing of longtime president William Mueller. He is vice president and senior counsel of the Thomas More Society.

Breen called himself an “energetic thinker” and pointed to his “proven” record of reduced spending in Lombard during an interview with Suburban Life Media earlier this month.

“I have the time, energy and understanding of the issues to be a citizen legislator who truly acts in the best interest of

the taxpayers of the district,” he said at the time.

Pihos, 67, of Glen Ellyn, said public service has never been a job but a calling.

“I have always been passionate about service and I have been privileged and fortunate to service my constituents throughout the years,” Pihos said Tuesday night. “[But] we have Democracy for that purpose – the voters have spoken and I will move forward.”

Pihos was elected to the General Assembly in 2002.

She is currently serving her sixth term in office. She formerly served on the Glenbard High School District 87 school board.

STATE SENATE DISTRICT 24

Nybo wins state Senate primary on second try

By MARI GRIGALIUNAS

Ballot count

mgrigaliunas@shawmedia.com ELMHURST – In his second run for the state Senate’s 24th District seat, Chris Nybo of Elmhurst is one step closer to victory after winning the Republican primary.

“I’ve been on both sides of a race like this,” Nybo said.

“Sometimes we’ve won, sometimes we’ve lost.”

With about 58 percent of the vote in DuPage County and more than 15,500 votes total, according to preliminary results, Nybo, 36, won against another Elmhurst resident, Dennis Reboletti, who serves as state representatives for Illinois’ 45th District.

“Dennis and I are friends and nothing about this changes that,” Nybo said.

Nybo lost to Dillard in a 2012 primary election for the state’s 24th District seat. While he believes he benefited from not

having to run against Dillard this time, Nybo also credited his campaign’s positive twist.

“We remained optimistic until the very end of our campaign,” Nybo said.

When Nybo announced his intent to run in November, he cited Illinois’ pension crisis as his No. 1 priority. While in office, Nybo was the first Republican to sponsor the pension law passed last year.

“We need to get our economy back on top,” Nybo said.

Nybo has said job creation and economic development are the biggest challenges facing Springfield. Tuesday night he said “without a doubt creating

While 41st District state representative, Nybo worked successfully to pass laws banning Blagojevich-style billboards paid for by taxpayers and expanding the availability of food allergy medicine in schools. “[Reboletti has] had a very distinguished career,” said Nybo of his opponent.

Reboletti, 45, of Elmhurst has been a state representative since 2007 and boasted his experience as an assistant minority leader and floor leader for Illinois House Republicans during his campaign. He also championed his efforts as a former prosecuter to fight the presence of heroin in DuPage County.

“His voice will be missed in

the General Assembly,” Nybo said.

Reboletti also named his negotiating role in passing Illinois’ concealed carry law and successful efforts to pass Andrea’s Law, which tracks murderers released from corrections as two of his biggest accomplishments as 45th District representative.

Reducing the tax burden and for families and turning Illinois into a destination economy were priorities Reboletti named for Springfield.

Reboletti could not be reached for comment Tuesday evening. Nybo will run against Democratic candidate Suzy Glowiak of Western Springs in November for Illinois’ 24th District Senate seat.

While Glowiak lives in Western Springs, Nybo believes he has plenty of supporters there.

“The western suburbs need a strong moderate voice,” Nybo said.

The Montini girls basketball team defeated Joliet Academy 57-44 to win a state title.

Thumbs up to the Montini girls basketball team, which brought home their fourth state championship in five years. They were led by seniors Kelly Karlis, Sara Ross and Kateri Stone, who compiled a 138-10 record in their high school careers as four-year starters. Their 57-44 victory over Joliet Catholic in the title game was the perfect end to a great season.

It’s not always clear to the people who live or frequently travel on a street why it seems to be neglected as neighboring roads get repaired and upgraded. In the case of one stretch of Grace Street in Lombard between St. Charles Road and North Avenue, it’s because the village doesn’t have jurisdiction over it. The good news is that the village has requested that IDOT transfer that responsibility so that the street can get some much-needed work.

Eckhoff to take on Custer

By ANNA SCHIER aschier@shawmedia.com DuPage County Board District 4 incumbent Grant Eckhoff will represent the Republican camp in November, when he faces off against Democrat Jeremy Custer.

Eckhoff won Tuesday’s primary election with 59.59 percent of the vote, according to preliminary reports from DuPage County. Challengers Paula McGowen and Ronald Almiron received 31.48 percent and 8.93 percent, respectively.

A political veteran who has served for decades as an elected official, Eckhoff has been a member of the board since 2002, Grant according to the Eckhoff Illinois State Board of Elections. Prior to running for his seat with the county, he was a Wheaton city councilman

Although the majority of the plumbing system within a typical residential home is typically concealed, there are certainly plenty of areas that a novice can quickly assess.

Every faucet, toilet and appliance must have a shut of valve that can easily be turned of in case of an emergency. here should also be a valve that shuts of the main water supply to the home as well as to the water heater. You will want to make sure that the valves all shut completely of before an emergency occurs. Faucets should be easy to operate and free from leakage.

Drains in the home should all keep up with the low of the ixture it is serving, without any water backing up.

Mike Borowski Vice President

Toilets should be irmly set in place and not rock or move with any body weight or pressure applied side to side. Flooring around tiles should be irm and not buckled, uneven, or discolored. You will want to check for leakage from the tank to the bowl by dropping a few drops of dye into tank. If the color appears in bowl, there is a leak and it is costing you money. he toilet should lush easily without any hesitation or back up or any particular “technique”.

Look for staining on walls and ceilings and line up with plumbing in related areas. Grout and caulk in between tile tub and shower surrounds should not be discolored and intact. Visually inspect around water heater for signs of leakage.

If your home has a sump pump, make sure the standing water level is below the inlet of the pit and make sure that discharge outside allows water to freely drain away from the home. If there is a battery back-up system, look for weak battery charge light indicators.

Jeremy Custer is one step closer to the DuPage Country Board District 4 seat after winning the Democratic primary.

“I think I’ve proven myself in my short career to be someone who’s dedicated to taking on tough issues and running with them,” Custer said Tuesday night.

With 59 percent of the vote, according to preliminary results, Custer, 25, of Glendale Heights won the chance to face incumbent Grant Eckhoff in the November election.

“Grant has been in some sort of office as long as I’ve been alive,” Custer said.

As chief of staff to state Sen. Tom Cullerton, Custer campaigned as a problem-solver who could make government work for residents. He said his priority moving forward will be to make sure citizens know who represents them on the County Board.

Custer ran on a platform of making DuPage County a leader in economic development.

He named investing in infrastructure as well as recruiting and retaining businesses as top priorities.

“Economic development and positioning DuPage County as a place where people want to live, work and play is going to be paramount to the work I want to do,” Custer said.

Custer won against Moon Khan, 59, of Lombard who cam-

paigned with the mission to save taxpayers money. The former Republican pointed to the centralizing county functions Jeremy and speeding up Custer the county’s consolidation plans.

“I believe it went very well,” Khan said, who added he was pleased with the 1,089 votes he was able to get without fundraising and spending a lot of money.

Khan also served eight years as a York Township trustee. He pointed to the county’s growing heroin use among youth, flooding and stormwater and a lack of public transportation as key issues.

“The second most important things is … I have expanded the base of the party,” Khan said, explaining that he believes he’s gotten other immigrants involved in politics.

As an Asian American, Khan also mentioned the missing representation of Asians, Hispanics and African Americans on the County Board and committees during his campaign.

Khan said he may have lost the battle, but he hadn’t lost the war yet and planned to support Custer in his November election.

Custer believes that he can give a fresh perspective to the issues facing DuPage County.

“I have the utmost respect for Grant and look forward to having a spirited race,” Custer said.

Without having much of a technical background, is there anything pertaining to my plumbing system that I should check periodically as a precaution?

• ECKHOFF Continued from page 11 for 14 years, he said, and still lives in the city. He is involved with six county committees, according to the DuPage County website.

Eckhoff credited his track record in government for the primary win.

“People know that I deal with issues straight up,” he said. “They know I take on the tough issues.”

In the months ahead, Eckhoff will focus on his established areas of interest, including government consolidation, tax reduction, heroin use prevention and treating the mentally ill, he said, while also prioritizing the allocation of storm water funds to west DuPage County and assisting children.

Eckhoff’s challenger, 25-year-old Jeremy Custer, of Glendale Heights, is chief of staff to state Sen. Tom Cullerton, D-Villa Park. Custer ran on a platform of economic development.

“Grant has been in some sort of office as long as I’ve been alive,” Custer said.

Eckhoff is 54.

“I’d like to congratulate Grant Eckhoff,” said runner-up McGowen. “We all ran a hard, clean campaign.”

The race for the Republican nod in County Board District 4 was McGowen’s first experience running for office.

“The voters have spoken,” said Almiron. “I congratulate him and wish him all the best.”

County deputy sues sheriff

By NATHAN LURZ nlurz@shawmedia.com A 17-year veteran DuPage County Sheriff’s Office deputy has filed a lawsuit against Sheriff John Zaruba, claiming he was denied a transfer because he pushed for more collective bargaining rights and refused to donate to Zaruba’s political campaign.

Deputy Peter Coolidge named Zaruba and DuPage

County Sheriff’s Office Chief Al Angus as defendants in the suit he filed in the U.S. District Court – Northern District of Illinois on March 6, according to the court website.

Coolidge has been a deputy since September 1996, the suit said, when he started in the Corrections Bureau. He moved to the Patrol Division in 2002, then went back to Corrections in 2008.

He believes he was denied

a transfer back to Patrol in 2012 as retaliation for his unwillingness to contribute to Zaruba’s campaign fund and for demanding more collective bargaining rights for Sheriff’s Office employees, according to the suit.

The retaliation, which “continues to this day,” violates his constitutional rights, caused him to lose career opportunities and damaged his reputation, the suit said.

DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office spokesman Paul Darrah declined to discuss the pending litigation.

The Sheriff’s Office did not respond to requests for comment.

Coolidge’s attorney also opted not to make a statement on the ongoing law suit.

The suit follows accusations of similar actions on the part of Zaruba made by seven deputies in November.

Restaurant reviews

Kick up your appetite at Al’s Char-House LA GRANGE – They say everything’s bigger in Texas, and if that’s the case, then Al’s Char-House not only embodies the stereotype, but celebrates it with platters built for a state-size appetite and portions larger than my forearm.

Even on a freezing winter’s night, downtown La Grange is its same old self with bustling foot traffic, valet services working nonstop and restaurants keeping up with the demand.

Through a set of double doors next to Casa Margarita and down a stairwell, there exists a place in La Grange that could only be described as John Wayne’s subconscious fantasy.

Texas and cowboy memorabilia line every wall from the full-service bar area with fire pit to the multiple levels of a packed and hungry house.

Walking past the terrific Western-themed decor, including cowboy statues, saddles, badges and photographs, it was hard not to notice the king-size platters being brought to tables. I could hear guests saying to each other with a smile how they’ll have leftovers until [insert days in advance here].

As a result, I refrained from ordering an appetizer, but seeing the onion blossom specialty arrive at several tables close by tempted me in ways you could only imagine.

Instead, I resisted and opted for the main course.

The menu’s array of different strips of steak and ribs looked mouthwatering, but being a connoisseur of cheeseburgers, I had to go with the Charburger Plus, described by Al’s as its “super burger,” topped with lettuce, tomato, pickles and onion.

Again, I have to be honest.

Right before going to Al’s, I went to see the new “Hunger Games” movie at the La Grange Theatre, so now eyeing a burger that took up most of my plate made me feel a little guilty. That was before I took the first bite.

Suburban Life Media photos

A cowboy dream awaits at Al’s Char-House in downtown La Grange, where the Western theme is as big as the portions.

Al’s Char-House n Where: 32 S. La Grange Road, La Grange n Hours: 4 to 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday; 4 to 11 p.m. Friday;

3 to 11 p.m. Saturday; noon to 10 p.m. Sunday

finding the strength to carry

The Charburger Plus lives up to its “super burger” billing, and can be on. customized with a variety of toppings.

If there ever were a time I “Is it good?” my mom asked.

But I couldn’t stop to answer her; I was too busy leaving shame at the door as the juices from the burger dripped down to my fingers and then back into my mouth.

My mom could tell what the answer would’ve been as she got started on her Chicken Marsala, two boneless chicken breasts sauteed in wine and

mushrooms. Despite not being able to finish the massive portions, we both enjoyed the leftovers for lunch the next day.

Our server was more than friendly, along with the rest of the staff, who twice during our visit got together to sing a happy birthday to guests.

I managed to request a brownie sundae for dessert, after loosening my belt and

chose wisely to indulge, it was now, as a brownie materialized covered in whipped cream, chocolate syrup and ice cream. My mom couldn’t eat another bite, but, as I said, shame already had been left at the door, so the spoon and my hand became one until the plate was empty.

With its selection of steaks, chicken dinners, kabobs and burgers, Al’s Char-House is a haven for carnivores, but

offers an occasional non-meat dish as an option.

For myself though, and much of the packed house in attendance, meat was the weapon of choice, and I would be happy to rearm at the La Grange steakhouse again.

Area volleyball teams hope to net success Fellow seniors Brad Cardott, who had 101 digs last season, 6-foot-5 Erik Fiebrandt and Alex Bojan are also back.

Junior Adam Eboli is another returner.

“We graduated many seniors, however we have five seniors returning,” Glenbard East coach Marci Maier said.

We have high hopes for the season. We should be a better defensive team and have a balanced offense, so we hope to compete for a regional title and beyond.”

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmdia.com Volleyball is one sport immune to bad spring weather.

High school boys teams get started next week, so here’s a look at what to expect from area teams this season.

York Dukes Coach: Ken Dowdy 2013 record: 13-18 Top players:

Jason Bowles Joe Duda Sebastian Guzman Evan Wendell

sr. sr. sr. sr.

OH S L OH

Montini Broncos Coach: Steve Dowjotas Top players:

Outlook: The Dukes bring back nine seniors, including four starters.

That experience will be tested with a tough early schedule that includes matches against Payton, Lake Park, Lyons Township, Benet, Downers Grove North and Glenbrook South.

“We’ll know where we need to improve to compete in a tough West Suburban Silver,” coach Ken Dowdy said. “We should be very competitive as the season progresses. We’re really fortunate to have a tremendous senior class, and their leadership since last spring has been great.”

The four returning starters, Jason Bowles, Joe Duda, Sebastian Guzman and Evan Wendell, will lead the team, but they should have help from a supporting core fill with varsity returners.

Bobby Krissinger and Casey McNamara will take up the middle hitter position.

Sean Lyons, Kevin Peronto, Mike Pasternock and Omar Carbajal, a transfer from Addison Trail, should contribute.

“Our defense should be one of the best in the area, and Sebastian has the ability to be one of the best libero’s in the state,” Dowdy said.

Ryan McAuley Jimmy Soukup Matt Vogrin

sr. RS/S jr. MH jr. RS/S

Outlook: The still developing Montini program has five returners and nine varsity newcomers, including a staggering six freshmen. Senior Ryan McAuley and junior Matt Vogrin will share setting duties while also getting some time as hitters. Six-foot junior Jimmy Soukup will be a key contributor at middle hitter.

“We are looking to continue to grow ... and get experience for our freshmen to Shaw Media file photosw continue to rebuild our boys ABOVE: Glenbard East’s Brad Cardott sets the ball in a match last sea- volleyball program at Monson. Cardott was a key defensive player last year and figures to shine in tini,” coach Steve Dowjotas that role again this season. BELOW: Willowbrook’s Ben Wozniak (left) said.

and Zac Prosek celebrate a match win last season. Wozniak is back for the Warriors this season and should be a major contributor on offense.

“Duda runs the offense with precision and it should lead to an efficient offense headed by Bowles and Wendell.”

Glenbard East Rams Coach: Marci Maier 2013 record: 23-13 Top players:

Brad Cardott Sterling Glover Cory Soehren

sr. DS sr. OH sr. S

Outlook: The Rams graduated

many key seniors, including Penn State freshman Joey Farrell, but there is still plenty of talent in the program.

Setter Cory Soehren and outside hitter Sterling Glover are the team’s top returners, and a junior class that helped the JV team win the DuPage Valley Conference and go 271-1 last season will boost the squad.

Soehren had 633 assists last year and Glover had 107 kills.

Addison Trail Blazers Coach: Troy Hubner 2013 record: 16-19 Top players:

Anthony Chiaramonte Alex Dickmann Kevin Grygo Kannon Nelms John Valintini Jack Vrchota

sr. jr. sr. so. jr. jr.

OH OH S MH OH MH

Outlook: After enduring a season with a young team last year, the Blazers are set for bigger and better things

this spring.

Talented junior outside hitter Alex Dickmann had 300 kills last season and will lead the way again.

The 6-foot-4 Dickmann has represented the United States at the youth level. A strong supporting cast is with him.

“We return every position from last year and we only graduated one outside hitter that played significant time,” coach Troy Hubner said.

Hubner set goals of a West Suburban Gold title and a trip to state for his team.

“We will see how the team gels as the season progresses as to whether we can meet any of those goals,” he said.

Willowbrook Warriors Coach: Ryan Bazon 2013 record: 26-11 Top players:

Anthony Acitelli Tommy King Ryan Wakely Ben Wozniak

jr. jr. jr. sr.

L S OH OH

Outlook: The Warriors have the task of replacing a 12-man senior class that won 52 games in the past two years on varsity.

This season, Willowbrook has just one senior joined by 11 juniors on the roster.

Outside hitter Ben Wozniak is the team’s lone senior, but is a good one.

He had 243 kills, 223 digs, 35 blocks and 17 aces a year ago.

Newcomers Ryan Wakely, Anthony Acitelli and Tommy King should play big roles in their first year on varsity.

“Our teams expectations this year are to again be competitive in the West Suburban Gold and to continue building on our successes,” coach Ryan Bazon said.

This group of players has seen increasing success over the years and we are eager to [continue that] as a team and program.”

Here are Suburban Life Media’s 2014 boys basketball selections for classes 3A and 4A taking place this weekend. That means it’s

time to take a look at the 2013-14 boys basketball all-area team.

School: Montini Year: Senior Impact: The Broncos’ senior forward nearly averaged a double-double with 17.1 points and 8.9 rebounds per game. Brachmann was also a wide receiver for the football team and used his size and strength as a physical player inside.

School: IC Catholic Year: Senior Impact: Brinkman was IC’s solid senior guard. He averaged 12.8 points per game and 4.8 rebounds.

Brinkman was a standout in football and basketball, but his best sport is baseball, which he will be playing in college.

School: Addison Trail Year: Senior Impact: Duling wasn’t much of a factor for the varsity team last year, but showed great improvement. He earned a starting spot and turned that into an all-conference selection. He was all-tournament at the Blazers’ pre-holiday tournament this season and averaged 11 points, 4.0 assists and 3.1 rebounds per game.

School: IC Catholic Year: Sophomore Impact: The Suburban Christian Gold player of the year put up big numbers, and the scary part is that he’s only a sophomore. The 6-foot-3 guard averaged 19.2 points per game while pulling in 8.1 rebounds and blocking 28 shots. Colleges will surely start calling for Epting very soon.

School: Glenbard East Year: Senior Impact: The Rams had an uncharacteristically down year, but it wasn’t because of Jaron Hall. The senior guard led the team in scoring and proved to still be a dangerous player.

Hall, who was all-conference in the DuPage Valley Conference, is one of the best jump shooters in the area.

School: Willowbrook Year: Senior Impact: The Warriors didn’t have a lot of success on the court, but Poole managed to stand out. The senior guard averaged 9.1 points per game thanks to a good shot and an ability to get open.

Honorable mention

Stanley Roberts

Charlie Rose

Frank Toohey

School: Addison Trail Year: Senior Impact: The four-year starting point guard was a staple in the program. His scoring ability and ballhandling skills helped earn him an all-conference selection and all-tournament nods at West Chicago and Addison Trail this season. He averaged 17.1 points, 4.7 assists and 4.1 rebounds per game while shooting 51 percent from the floor.

School: York Year: Senior Impact: Roberts was a versatile athlete for the Dukes. The 6-foot-1 guard played longer than his size and was third on a balanced York team in scoring at 8.9 points per game. He will be playing at the next level after receiving a lot of interest from Division III schools.

School: York Year: Senior Impact: Rose was the quarterback of the football team, but the basketball court is where he truly shines. The sharpshooting guard made 39 3-pointers this season while averaging 9.8 points per game.

He also led the team with 59 assists

School: York Year: Senior Impact: Toohey was a four-year varsity player and leaves the program with the most career wins in York history. Bound for Air Force, the 6-foot-8 forward scored 14.1 points and grabbed 7.2 rebounds per contest. What’s maybe most impressive is his 80.6 free throw percentage (166-for-206).

Connor VanderBrug School: Timothy Christian Year: Senior Impact: The all-area MVP was also the MVP of the Metro Suburban Conference. VanderBrug played all five positions at different points in the season for Timothy and put up monster numbers. He averaged 21.6 points, 8.7 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game while also shooting 38 percent from 3-point range as a 6-foot-6 forward.

Connor VanderBrug a jack of all trades for Timothy Christian hoops

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com ELMHURST – Connor VanderBrug stood tall in many ways for Timothy Christian this season.

Not only did the 6-foot-6 senior play every position at some point during the season, but he was a positive role model for the program and the school.

The best story about VanderBrug, one that coach Jack LeGrand was excited to tell, is that he once signed a wristband and gave it to a younger Timothy Christian student.

“One thing cool about Timothy basketball being a campus that’s preschool through 12th grade is a lot of times our younger kids look up to the older kids,” LeGrand said. “Connor also looks up to the younger kids. He really is a great role model.”

The younger kid, Ben VanderWal, was a big fan of VanderBrug and the team. VanderBrug still was surprised by how much of an impact that little gesture had on VanderWal. “He just loves being in our basketball camp that we run,” VanderBrug said. “He’s a basketball fanatic. He came to every game almost and saw me play as much as possible. His mom would always tell me stories of how [VanderWal would say], ‘Oh my goodness he knows my name.’ It was just cool to give him something to remember me by.”

VanderBrug gave the Timothy program plenty to remember. He was the Metro Suburban Conference MVP this season and finished his career with 1,247 points. In his last four regular season games he scored 37, 37, 31 and 38 points.

Earlier in his career he was a strong 6-foot-6 interior player.

He’s a long way from that now.

Connor VanderBrug averages Points: 21.6 Rebounds: 8.7 Blocks: 2.1 3-point shooting: 38 percent This season, VanderBrug could be any of a number different types of players. He could be a passing forward that his teammates would play off of, he could be a shooter that his team would run plays to get open shots for, he could be the primary ballhandler and he could still be the post player.

The evolution of his game, which included occasional point guard duties once the team’s starter went down around the New Year, surprised even VanderBrug.

“Sophomore year I don’t think [playing point guard] would have crossed my mind,” VanderBrug said. “I actually loved playing point guard.

I know at the college level I’m kind of in between guard and big man so I like to have experience playing every role out there and I think that was good for me.”

VanderBrug will play at Calvin College, a Division III program in Grand Rapids, Mich., that multiple members of his family have attended. To the surprise of LeGrand, no Division I offers ever came despite his all-around game and size.

“He was a problem for people because he’s so versatile,” LeGrand said. “We put him at every position. He stepped up to the challenge. Connor is one of the best players we’ve had. He’s one of the best Timothy has had in a while.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

York Senior | Basketball Why Lyons was selected: Lyons qualified for state in the 3-point Showdown after making 12 out of 15 shots in 45 seconds at the Bartlett sectional.

What was your preparation for the shootout?

We do a lot of shooting during the year with the

team. Once the season was over I got a little shooting in.

I didn’t have to do anything different. The cool thing was that the team came out and watched. We had almost the whole team there for my 45 seconds.

Did you have to change your shot at all?

It’s a little different. I just keep everything the same. I just try to take my whole shot.

You have to go a little quicker. As long as you don’t slow down you’re fine.

Do you have any favorite memories of the season?

It was a great senior year. We were really close [as a team]. We all had each others’ backs. It was really cool. There’s not one favorite memory.

ELMHURST – Elmhurst College has named Ron Planz as its new head football coach.

Planz becomes the 19th head coach in school history, taking over for Joe Adam, who resigned last month to join the coaching staff at Syracuse.

Planz has spent the last five seasons as an assistant coach at Minnesota State University, Mankato – an NCAA Division II school. He served as the team’s defensive line coach and special team’s coordinator.

He takes over for an Elmhurst team that finished the 2013 season with a 4-6 overall

record and a 3-4 mark in the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (CCIW).

The team is just one season removed from its best-ever campaign in 2012 when the Bluejays won a share of the CCIW championship for the first time since the 1980 season and earned the College’s first-ever trip to the NCAA playoffs.

“My family and I are beyond excited to be joining the Elmhurst College community,” Planz said in a release.

“This is a great school that cares about the student experience and is committed to being great. This is what has me most excited about being a Bluejay.”

Planz is no stranger to the Elmhurst area or the CCIW after attending nearby Fenton High School and then playing football at Carthage College.

Prior to joining the MSU-Mankato coaching staff in 2009, Planz served as the defensive coordinator and strength and conditioning coordinator at Manchester College for five seasons.

He also spent three seasons as an assistant at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire.

He began his coaching career overseas, serving as the defensive coordinator for the Danube Dragons in Klosterneuburg, Austria, in 2002.

Chicago Football sports media franchise launches SHAW MEDIA AND DAILY HERALD MEDIA GROUP Shaw Media and Daily Herald Media Group recently announced the launch of Chicago Football, a print and digital sports media franchise covering high school, college and professional football. Veteran football analyst and Chicago-area sports personality Hub Arkush will spearhead the initiative.

The first edition of Chicago Football magazine hits newsstands in early April and will focus on the Chicago Bears’

preparation for the 2014 NFL Draft. The first edition will include exclusive interviews with head coach Marc Trestman and general manager Phil Emery. It also will break down the professional prospects of Chicago-area players, including Chris Watt (Glen Ellyn) and others.

In print, Chicago Football will be a glossy magazine published weekly during the football season and monthly in the offseason. The publishers also plan to produce several annual football guides to be distributed nationally.

The website HubArkush. com is now ChicagoFootball. com. The new site will provide in-depth news and analysis of the Bears, along with extensive information about the NFC North division and coverage of all 32 NFL teams.

The site also will provide analysis of local high school and college programs as the 2014 season approaches.

In addition to Arkush, Chicago Football contributors include Shaw Media’s Kevin Fishbain and Tom Musick, and the Daily Herald’s premier Bears expert Bob LeGere

and fantasy football analyst John Dietz. Veteran designer and editor Bob Peters – who previously worked with Arkush at Pro Football Weekly – also joined the Chicago Football team. Arkush indicated that he is in the process of hiring additional staff.

Chicago Football will be headquartered at the Daily Herald offices in Arlington Heights.

Arkush noted the time is right for this venture.

“The NFL’s popularity is at an all-time high, and many fans have an affiliation

with at least one college and high school program while many follow more than one,” Arkush said. “Chicago Football will be unique in its look at the sport from a geographical perspective, and our singular focus will allow us to go more in-depth than other media.”

Chicago Football’s NFL Draft Preview edition will be available on newsstands April 7. The magazine can be purchased at area newsstands or included as part of an annual subscription, available at ChicagoFootball.com.

Beat the winter blues shoveling snow, scraping windshields and running from the car to the office burns calories, but enough is enough. We can’t take it anymore, winter! fortunately, there are effective strategies to help combat the winter blues: On below-zero days, a couch, blanket and cranked thermostat are much more enticing than venturing outside to hit the gym. But here’s the deal: exercise can help banish your winter blues and shouldn’t be skipped.

Whether you grab a basketball, a dumbbell or a yoga mat, a good sweat session releases feel-good brain chemicals that reduce depression and improve your mood. Plus, your metabolism and energy level will both stay elevated for a few hours after your workout.

Soak in the sun: Winter days are cold, long and dark. This ultimately means a lack of a very important ingredient to wintertime happiness: sunlight. Time spent in the sun helps your body process Vitamin D and releases neurotransmitters that can boost your mood!

Add a few extra outdoor activities to your week like a walk around the neighborhood or cross-country skiing.

As for your home, keep your shades up during the day or use full spectrum light bulbs to replicate natural light indoors. everyone is happier when they are looking forward to an exciting event on the horizon.

Plan a guys or girls night out, an evening at a comedy club or a weekend getaway. if you want to indulge solo, try a massage.

battle of the bulge M

by David Gannon More Content Now

any Americans suffer with problems of obesity. It is estimated that nearly two-thirds of Americans are now overweight and many have given up the struggle to return to a healthy weight.

As your weight increases, the chances of losing it seem to slip away. If you lose only a pound here and a pound there, any chance for significant weight loss seems to be out of reach.

You get discouraged and stop trying.

The risks of obesity and being overweight are many. It is the No. 1 public health problem in America, leading to multiple diseases. Weight-related diseases include hypertension, Type II diabetes, fatty organs, acid reflux, heart disease, shortness of breath, joint pain, lowered immune response, stroke, high cholesterol, sleep apnea and premature death.

The costs of medical care for these diseases has skyrocketed to $147 billion for Medicare and Social Security Disability claims in one year. People who are obese spend 42 percent more on medical care, 72 percent more on medications and 48 percent more time in the hospital. That adds up to as much as $10,000 more per year in healthcare costs.

The factors that can influence excessive weight gain are different for each person. The trajectory toward obesity can begin as early as 5 or 6 years old when hereditary factors and family lifestyle can contribute to the problem. You can inherit certain genetic predispositions for weight gain. However, in most cases heredity can be overcome with a healthy lifestyle.

If the family meals include many calorie-dense foods, you not only gain excessive weight but you are likely to develop unhealthy eating habits as an adult. Family schedules may be arranged around the foods that are fast and easy but also more likely to be unhealthy. If the family eats a lot in restaurants many of the foods tend to be in larger portions and may have too much of the “big three” — fats, sugar and salt — in them.

Subsequently the entire family can easily become “biggiesized.”

What about your body? It seems to betray you, too. Your taste buds seem to prefer donuts over broccoli. The taste of processed foods also may be engineered to maximize your

be patient and set realistic goals for weight loss. Weight gain did not happen overnight. practice healthy behaviors and weight loss will follow. consumption.

It doesn’t help that your body is biologically predisposed to store foods for energy. But in modern life you do not need all of that stored food energy that will be enable you to run 10 miles, chase down an antelope, kill it with your spear and drag it back home. Instead you are more likely to eat a bag of potato chips while you sit on the couch, turn on the TV and watch someone else catch that antelope.

Women’s bodies tend to gain more weight with pregnancy but many women gain excessive weight during pregnancy and do not lose it. Hormones

sometimes play a part in increasing susceptibility to weight gain or slower body metabolism. Some medications also contribute to weight gain.

Don’t forget that an important part of the weight-loss equation is calorie expenditure.

Most Americans spend too much time in sedentary activities. Sitting at work, in a car and finally at home does nothing to burn up calories. Opportunities for walking, running and even moving may be very limited in your daily routine.

While it may seem hopeless with all of these obstacles, it is possible to lose weight. It involves a new psychology of self

and food utilization. Successful weight reduction requires increased knowledge and awareness of all of the potential threats to your health and a belief in your power to control your life called self-efficacy. All of the factors that can influence weight gain can be managed if you first become more aware of the subtle and not-so-subtle triggers for relapse. This includes our thoughts, beliefs, emotions and the environment.

It requires conscious living or achieving a level of mindfulness about yourself that most of us are not accustomed to practicing.

Consider the vision you have of yourself. If you imagine yourself as a healthy person you are more likely to act in ways that are congruent with the way a healthy person acts. You will consciously seek health-enhancing activities and be more aware of the choices you make.

Use behavior-modification principles to set up your life for managed eating, such as eating slowly, making a food journal and developing alternative ways to manage feelings.

Be patient and set realistic goals for weight loss. Weight gain did not happen overnight.

Practice healthy behaviors and weight loss will follow.

Be aware of the foods you have around you. Certain foods may look good, taste good and smell good but they create havoc with your organ systems.

Remove them from your home and surroundings. Become knowledgeable about foods and read labels. Buy more fruits and vegetables.

Eat more rationally and less emotionally. Change your view of food. Food must be viewed as a means for sustenance instead of a way to make yourself temporarily feel good, manage stress, conquer boredom or reduce bad feelings.

And don’t forget to move every day. Hop, skip, walk, run, jump or dance. Just get your body to experience enough motion to use up some of that stored food energy.

Being a healthy person of normal weight is not convenient. It requires an investment of time, thought and planning.

It requires a change in some of the beliefs you have held about yourself for a long time. The dividends can be a new and happier way of living your life and loving yourself.
