Fifth grade La Grange student writes his way to national contest LA GRANGE – Cossitt School fifth-grader Jack Link likes to spend most of his time outside of school playing travel baseball or travel football.

So when he was presented with a opportunity to enter the Letters About Literature contest, he was less than excited.

“I didn’t really want to [enter],” Jack said. “I knew I probably didn’t have a good chance at winning.”

Despite his own prediction, the Cossitt student en-

tered the contest – after some encouragement from his mom – and proved himself wrong.

The La Grange resident not only made it through the state level, but became a semifinalist in the competition’s national level.

Letters About Literature, sponsored by the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress, is a reading and writing contest for fourththrough 12th-grade students.

The contest required students read a book, speech or poem and to write to the author on how they were affected by the literature. Stu-

Jack who is enrolled in a special high-level reading class at school, originally heard about the contest from his teacher. He said for his submission, which he sent in January, he wrote a letter to Veronica Roth, the author of the “Divergent” book series.

“I said her books were really good and entertaining,” Jack said. “I just really liked it and hadn’t read a good book

As the only student in District 102 to make it to the semifinals, Jack also received a certificate from Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White for his accomplishment.

Jack. who described writing as “not his favorite thing to do,” said he’s glad he entered the contest after all, and he might enter the contest again if he has the chance.

“It was pretty fun,” Jack said. “It was pretty important for me, because I was the only one in the school district who’s ever won, which was pretty amazing.”

Spa leaves town after LA GRANGE BOARD | 3 HIGHLIGHTS What about GIS, safety, ComEd rates? prostitution charge SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

By KRISTIN PEDICINI kpedicini@shawmedia.com COUNTRYSIDE – Along with agreeing to never open another business in town, the owner of Lucky Day Spa voluntarily relinquished their business license during a public hearing May 14, according to City Administrator Gail Paul.

The agreement, which was approved by the City Council, came about after the massage parlor’s license was suspended almost two months ago.

Countryside Police Chief Joe Ford said the spa – previously at 6525 Joliet Road – had its license suspended

after an employee of the spa was charged with prostitution during an undercover police operation conducted by the Cook County Sheriff’s Department.

Yang Kang, 60, was charged with prostitution at 11:17 a.m. March 31 at the business.

Ford said there also was a violation against the owner’s massage license for allowing staff to work at the spa who weren’t licensed.

After an investigation, Ford said the police department also found the business had been advertising on Internet sites typically used for prostitution.

LA GRANGE – The village’s Board of Trustees gathered May 12 for their regular meeting where they debated a new Geographic Information System for the village, discussed the idea of a Consolidated Public Safety Dispatch Center and announced the new electricity rate from Com Ed that residents face.

While explaining the Geographic Information System and its use to the village, trustee Jim Palermo said the main need for a GIS is for utility mapping and the Public Works department, although all departments use a form of the system.

Legislators react after judge halts implementation of pension law

By NATHAN LURZ nlurz@shawmedia.com LA GRANGE – The state fight for a solution to its pension problems took another turn last week when a Sangamon County judge decided to delay its latest effort.

On May 14, Judge John Beliz ordered a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction against the reforms set out in Senate Bill 1, which cuts cost-of-living increases, lowers contributions required of current employees, guarantees state contributions and raises retirement ages for state workers.

There currently are several suits challenging the constitutionality of the measure signed by Gov. Pat Quinn in December. The Illinois Constitution currently states contractual benefits of state work-

ers “shall not be diminished or impaired.”

“This is an important first step in our efforts to overturn this unfair, unconstitutional law and to protect retirement security for working and retired Illinois families,” said Michael T. Carrigan, president of the Illinois AFL-CIO, in a statement on behalf of worker coalition We Are One Illinois.

Beliz ruled on a lawsuit filed by the Illinois State Employees Association Retirees and several other plaintiffs.

In his official filing, Beliz said there was sufficient evidence those named in the suit would “suffer irreparable harm” if the injunction was not issued. Statewide implementation now will be held until Beliz or a higher court decides on the constitutionality of the law.

“Obviously, we are very

pleased that the judge understood the situation that a lot of these retirees were in and their uncertainty of what was going to happen next,” said Donald Craven, the lawyer for the association.

Attorney General Lisa Madigan’s office, which represents the state in legal matters, defended the law to the court Thursday with a formal response.

In it, Madigan said the retirement systems “have been underfunded for many years, [and] their underfunding now greatly exceeds the state’s annual budget for all categories of expenditure.”

Because of the “magnitude” of the pension problem – reaching upward of $100 million in some estimates – she argued the law is valid.

“The goal of the pension reform law is to stabilize the pen-

sion system,” Madigan spokesperson Maura Possley said.

“Unfortunately, this decision will likely further burden the systems and hurt taxpayers.”

Many legislators contacted after the decision expressed little surprise at the ruling, saying lawmakers and proponents of the law were expecting a legal fight.

Representative La Shawn K. Ford said it was unfortunate the courts could not provide an opinion before passing the legislation.

“It was most appropriate to delay [the bill] until the decision was made if it’s constitutional or not,” Rep. Ford said.

“We’ve known that it will be a long road through the judiciary for the state’s pension reform, so this is just one bump in the road and pension reform will ultimately be decided by the Illinois Supreme Court,”

Sen. Kirk Dillard, R-Hinsdale, said. “So this decision is not a surprise.”

House Republican leader Jim Durkin, R-Western Springs, said he was pleased there was movement on the circuit court level but the stay shouldn’t be considered a significant legal victory.

“We anticipated a tough legal challenge which is why we planned ahead and did not expect to realize any savings in Fiscal Year 2015, so this ruling has no real impact on the budget or pensions at this time,” Durkin said in a statement.

“Ultimately, the real question will be addressed by the Supreme Court because whoever is on the losing end of the lawsuit will appeal to the higher court.”

Marconi’s Ristorante says farewell to La Grange Know more

By KRISTIN PEDICINI kpedicini@yahoo.com LA GRANGE – After 17 years of satisfying grumbling stomachs with classic Italian recipes, Marconi’s Ristorante will be serving up its final dishes in June.

The mom and pop restaurant, 15 W. Calendar Ave., will close its doors June 28.

Judy Marconi – who owns the restaurant with her husband, John – said they’ve decided to leave the business and retire to spend more time with their grandchildren.

“We’re going to miss everyone we’ve worked with,” Judy Marconi said. “But it’s time for us to start a new chapter in our lives and enjoy the rest of life.”

Marconi’s Ristorante originally opened in 1959 in Chicago and was run by John Marconi’s parents. When they retired, John and Judy moved the restaurant to La Grange, opening the new location in March 1996.

IRA PAYOUTS The year an IRA owner turns 70 1/2, he or she must withdraw a specified fraction of the total IRA holdings or face an outrageous penalty or 50 percent of the amount NOT taken out. Yet more than 250,000 people fail each year and pay the penalty.

(There is a legal option the first year to delay distribution until April 1 of the following year but two pay-outs that year may bump the IRA owner into a higher tax bracket and surtaxes.)

How much must you take out? The required minimum distribution starts with your IRA balance of the previous December 31 divided by a factor determined by your age. There will be a higher factor for those who are more than 10 years older than a spouse. I will do the computation for you at no charge if you call my office. If you have multiple IRA accounts the distribution may be taken from any of them, as long as the total adds up to the required minimum distribution

‘Puppy mills’ bill may do more harm than good SPRINGFIELD – I love animals. I’m the son and husband of veterinarians. My house is a menagerie with four dogs, two cats, two rabbits and a pair of parakeets.

While I love animals, I have an even greater devotion to freedom. That’s why some legislation recently introduced in the Illinois Legislature gives me pause.

It seems state Sen. Dan Kotowski, D-Park Ridge, and state Rep. Dan Burke, D-Chicago, have introduced legislation prohibiting pet stores from VIEWS selling dogs not rescued Scott from the pound or an animal Reeder rescue group. Under this bill, consumers could buy dogs from breeders, but pet stores would be prohibited from purchasing from breeders.

The bill’s proponents say it will cut down on “puppy mills.”

Here is how the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals defines a puppy mill: “A puppy mill is a large-scale commercial dog breeding operation that places profit over the well being of its dogs.”

But the Illinois legislation essentially lumps all breeders into that category.

There are bad dog breeders out there just like there are unethical accountants, sloppy electricians and dishonest politicians. But most breeders, like most people in any given profession, do a good job. In fact, most of the dog breeders I’ve met are nice people who love animals and are committed to finding them good homes.

The bill, which Gov. Pat Quinn endorses, would put some pet stores out of business. It also would make it tougher for dog breeders, who are mostly mom-and-pop business owners.

In fact, most of the breeders I know are doing it part time to supplement their income.

I bought Hershey, my Labrador retriever puppy, from an older woman battling muscular sclerosis and living on Social Security. Despite her physical ailments, she made sure the dogs were clean and well cared for.

But the bill before the Legislature would prohibit pet stores from buying from businesses such as hers. Never mind it hurts small businesses owners. Never mind it reduces choices for potential pet owners.

And never mind many of the health problems present at poorly run puppy mills also plague dog pounds and other shelters.

Lauren Kardatzke and Rachel Clarke, 2004 graduates of Lyons Township High School, are running a monthly arts program in Chicago called “State of the Art.”

Two Lyons Township High School graduates from the Class of 2004 are doing great work running a monthly pop-up art show in Chicago called “State of the Art.” In our profile of Lauren Kardatzke and Rachel Clarke last week, we discovered their motivation was to make art and artists more accessible to the general public through their shows. It’s always great to see former residents go on to do great things. Keep up the good work.

A beautiful ceremony was held May 10 in Lyons to honor police officers who lost their lives in the line of duty. The Cook County Peace Officers Memorial, held at Cermak Woods Forest Preserve, is a stark reminder of the dangerous job police officers do on a daily basis. A special thanks is owed to them for the work they do keeping us safe.

On the Opinions page in the May 14 Downers Grove Suburban Life, James Eichmiller shares with us some feelings and findings of the District 58 Technology Program. He said student achievement approved as measured by the math testing. How do we know the improvement was caused by technology? Could good teaching have caused the gain? He then said collaboration, ownership, engagement, staff flexibility and choice also increased. Again, could good teaching have caused these improvements? I am not sure you can state that all of these gains are from a take-home technology program. I am not sure we can afford to give every student a device to use at school and at home. Our taxes are going up, we have pension obligations to meet and we need to show some type of fiscal restraint.

is, but it needs some attention. Driving across the tracks is very rough, and to watch the cars crossing it reminds one of a boat ride on a lake with high waves as the cars bounce around. I am afraid every time I cross that I will be rear-ended as I coast across the tracks instead of driving across at my regular speed. This situation has been this way too long.

The railroad needs to repair the crossing so the cars have a smoother and safer crossing.

I was at Lilacia Park this morning in Lombard, and a worker there was spraying the faded tulips (bloom was done) with Roundup (glyphosate). I asked why, and he said it helps them [helps restore color]. Is this really necessary? Do we have to have everything look perfect?

Such a beautiful place seems natural, but then you learn they think they have to manipulate things with chemicals. Do we really need more chemicals in our ground, which eventually go into the waterways? Glyphosate has been linked to more than 20 adverse health effects, including birth defects, infertility and cancer.

Feds look at Hines VA Hospital SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA HINES – After learning of possible “secret waiting lists� from a whistleblower, federal auditors are taking a hard look at Edward Hines Jr. Veterans Affairs Hospital.

The reports said the alleged secret lists result in better looking treatment numbers for the facility, which allows hospital executives to obtain bonus money for providing fast treatment.

Numbers at Hines VA Hos-

pital, 5000 S. 5th Ave. in unincorporated Cook County, currently shows it provides care to more than 50,000 Chicago area veterans each year.

The alleged scheme places veterans who call for appointments on a special list even though they’re not scheduled for an appointment until an opening appears in a 14-day window, according to reports.

Veterans reported it can take several months to schedule an appointment.

Westchester pastor blesses animals Pastor Joe Mills blesses Casey, with owner Kathy Moore, during this year’s annual Pet Blessing on May 10 at the Westchester Community Church, a United Church of Christ.

Along with the Hines VA Hospital, federal authorities also are investigating facilities in Colorado, Texas and Wyoming.

In a statement, Hines Executive Director Joan Ricard said the hospital is committed to caring for veterans in a timely matter. “I am not aware of any occurrences of data manipulation here at Hines, past or present,� Ricard said. “And I have received no evidence or specific facts about data manipulation at the Hines VA.�

Restaurant reviews

Sushi House’s signature selections on a roll DOWNERS GROVE – Good sushi restaurants can be hard to find in the Midwest.

It’s usually not a matter of technique, but freshness.

Even the best restaurants can sometimes fall short because they don’t have access to high quality fish, obviously the key component in a dish that often consists of only raw protein, rice and seaweed.

The Sushi House in downtown Downers Grove proves a worthy entry on the suburban sushi scene. Its interior hearkens very much to the classic sushi setting – serene design, occasional pieces of Japanese artwork on the walls, and the sushi chef station right at the center of the action.

At a cursory glance, the menu is also fairly traditional – the typical, three- or four-ingredient basic roll, sashimi and nigiri on one side and the flashier rolls on the other.

There also are a number of regular entrees, including a couple of intriguing bento box combinations.

To experience the full gamut, our table ordered the lunch combination and one of the fancy rolls.

The combo included a basic tuna roll and spicy salmon rolls, as well as a cup of miso soup. The tuna had good texture, but my preference was the salmon. It melted in your mouth, while a nice bite of cucumber added a refreshing crunch to the wrap. The spicy mayo was understated.

Looking at the “signature rolls” part of the menu was overwhelming, but in the best possible way. I always feel a little intimidated by the depth of ingredient options at whatever sushi restaurant I am at – Sushi House’s 2011 Roll alone is topped with four different kinds of caviar.

There always seems to be a hint of a dare contained in that half of the menu. As if the sushi place is saying, “You want to get your socks knocked off? Here’s the best we got. Try to not enjoy eating these rolls.”

Sushi House, nestled in downtown Downers Grove, offers a diverse menu of both basic and intricate sushi offerings, as well as several options for those who aren’t fans of raw fish.

To see more photos from Sushi House, find this story online at PlanitLife.com/ mysterydiner

Sushi House offers plenty of creative options, including the basic and delicious tuna roll.

The Spicy Angel Roll was a delightful indulgence, marrying zesty fla- meaning Sushi House won that particular dare. vors with quality seafood.

I decided to go with the Spicy Angel Roll. When it came to the table, I was appropriately impressed. When I put it in my mouth, I was giddy.

The roll had it all – tempura shrimp, octopus, tuna, scallop and avocado. Inside was some of the spicy mayo I had wanted more of in the salmon roll, providing a creamy and lightly spicy base. Alongside the fish in the middle was a

small line of roe for a nice salty snap. On top was a sweet and smokey sauce and pickled jalapeño.

All together, it came out hitting multiple levels of spiciness without overwhelming the seafood flavors. It was definitely the dish that drove me from contentedly full to stuffed, because I just needed to have those last two pieces.

It completely elevated the meal from solid to very good,

Adding to the comfortable ambiance, the server was attentive without being pushy – stopping by to refill my water and take my order when I closed my menu.

The restaurant also gets a special shout-out for having real pickled ginger, the spicy white version instead of the tame and tangy pinkish stuff most places put out. It’s a small thing, but makes a big difference. It also has a patio that looks amazingly appeal-

ing, and will only look better as the weather improves.

All in all, Sushi House is a nice experience with good to very good food offerings. I would love to return and let the signature roll menu continue to bowl me over.

Mission accomplished

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com

HINSDALE – The past few years the Lyons Township boys gymnastics program has been building, and the seniors and junior Chris Rediehs can take pride in knowing they accomplished what they set out to.

LT took third at the state gymnastics meet over the weekend at Hinsdale Central, scoring 152.65 points to finish behind the Wheaton co-op (161.55) and Stevenson (153.7). Rediehs added individual medals by placing third in the all-around and fifth on vault and parallel bars.

“That is what our main goal was, get a trophy and top three,” Rediehs said.

Two years ago, when Rediehs was a freshman leading the way, the Lions didn’t qualify for state. Last year, they made it to state and were one point short of earning a trophy. This time around, the progression of the team was complete when LT moved onto the medal stand with a senior-heavy team.

Bill Ackerman - backerman@shawmedia.com “It was pretty exciting,” seLyons Township’s Chris Rediehs competes on rings during event pre- nior Noah Mennemeier said. lims at the IHSA state gymnastics meet at Hinsdale Central on Friday. “We were pumped from last year Rediehs was third in the all-around and added two other top-five because we thought [at the time] showings. if we came into state [seeded]

Senior-laden Lyons Township gymnastics reaches goal with improvement at state “We were pumped from last year because we thought [at the time] if we came into state [seeded] eighth and got fifth, we thought next season we could do even better.

That’s what we went for, a trophy, and we got it.”

Noah Mennemeier Lyons Township senior eighth and got fifth, we thought next season we could do even better. That’s what we went for, a trophy, and we got it.”

Mennemeier also qualified for Saturday’s event finals in the pommel horse and finished 10th. Freshman Alex Janicki competed in parallel bars, taking eighth; and horizontal bar, placing 10th.

Seniors Jackson McCoy, David Bielski, Jonathon Janas, Xavier Berry, Will Gallucci, juniors Gabe Thalji and Lucas Rong and sophomore Dave Steuart also competed in Friday’s team competition.

As the team’s top all-arounder Rediehs was at the heart of it each of the last three years.

“My first year was just me, no team, the first day for allaround,” Rediehs said. “The second year we did have the team, but we weren’t fully developed. Our team was mostly juniors and me as a sophomore, and we had one or two seniors. This year, now that we had a big, full team competing and ready to go, it definitely is a lot different than coming at any other time.”

Although Rediehs is only a junior, he said he will likely compete in club next season now the talented senior class will be gone. Rediehs has set sights on competing in college.

“I’m not sure about what’s going to happen with me with the team in general,” Rediehs said. “I may leave to go to club because that would give me a better chance to go to college and be on a college team. I did stick it out this year because I couldn’t give up on my team.

I love my team and I love everyone on it and I couldn’t just leave them so I stuck in it this year. Next year, it would be really hard for me to make college and stay in high school.”

‘Elated’ Lin repeats as badminton singles state champion

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com CHARLESTON – A year ago Stephanie Lin was a surprise champion in singles at the badminton state tournament. She didn’t surprise anyone, except maybe herself, during this year’s state tourney.

The Lyons Township junior defended her state title without dropping a set at Eastern Illinois. She cruised to the semifinals without a tight match and knocked off Fremd’s Angela

a 4-2 showing by singles player Elizabeth Abbs and a 3-2 record for doubles team Emma Thimmig and Sarah Weisshaar helped the Lions take third in the team standings.

T.F. South won the title and Buffalo Grove was second.

As the defending champion, Lin said she felt less pressure once she was deep in the tournament.

“Just with the one [title], I was obviously very happy,” Lin said. “This year I just wanted to play my best game.

Whether or not I won, that was good enough.

“Last year I was totally in a dream-like state. I don’t think I even comprehended what was going on half the time. This year I felt like I was present. I wasn’t lost. I was really thinking things through.”

Lin will have a chance to go for three in a row next year.

The Lions will have to restock to compete in the team competition though because Abbs, Thimmig and Weisshaar are all seniors.

ELMHURST – Youth and a lack of experience is a hard thing to overcome in high school sports, something Lyons Township’s softball team is learning the hard way.

The Lions, which feature four sophomores and one freshman, have suffered through growing pains with just one win in the West Suburban Silver at the start of the week.

“We go out, and we’re learning every game,” coach Dawn Schabacker said. “As long as we can be in a game and give ourselves a chance to be in a game, at least we’ve given ourselves an opportunity to do something. We’re not getting 10-run ruled every game.

We are hanging with every game.

I said let’s try to give ourselves the opportunity to win every game and that’s what we’re trying to stick with.”

Playing at York in a WSS on May 14, LT scored in the top of the seventh to get within a run and had the go-ahead run at second base but was unable to pick up the extra key hit to complete the comeback.

Schabacker said errors have led to big innings against the Lions, which have put them behind in games. Cutting down on the self-inflicted mistakes is something the team can learn going forward.

Seniors Stefanie D’Anna, who is hitting over .400, Kayla Morrissey, Leah Nunez and Katie Dzierwa have all contributed to the offensive side, but injuries have left LT shorthanded at pitcher.

Young players like sophomore Maggie Vacchiano, also hitting over .400, junior Courtney Petrosius and sophomore shortstop Delanie Cruz appear to be the core of the Lions’ future.

“It was rough in the beginning because it’s more intense and more fast paced,” Cruz said.

“As the season went on, I started to get a hold of it and get a hang of the speed of the pitching and how the defense works and how to think ahead.”

Cruz and the Lions finish up the regular season Saturday against Hinsdale South before beginning postseason play May 28.

WESTERN SPRINGS – Lyons Township hosted the girls track and field sectional Friday and made sure each of the visitors know the Lions were the best team there.

LT had 16 state-qualifying entries, won sectional titles in eight events, sent all four relays to state and won the meet with 192 points, more than 100 points ahead of second place Morton.

“It’s still exciting because, of course, there’s the expectation to go win, but you do have to perform,” said senior Lexy Rudofski, who won the 1,600-meter run and qualified with the 4x800 relay. “There were a few nerves just to make sure that everything fell into place, but it went very well.”

The 4x800 relay won the race by more than 21 seconds, finishing in 9:34.32. The Lions qualified with a middle of the pack time in Class 3A but are hoping for more.

“In the 4x800, I would just like to help our team get on the medal stand,” Rudofski said. “We have that goal for ourselves. The mile will kind of just be for fun [for me]. Really the focus is the 4x800.”

Junior Emma Haugen, who won a state title in the high jump as a freshman, will again gun for the title after winning the sectional with a jump of 5 feet, 3 inches. Haugen also won the 100-meter hurdles and was second in the triple jump.

Busy meets are nothing new for Haugen, who didn’t run on any relays during the sectional but may do so at state.

“I’m always running back and forth so it’s like ‘OK, I’m doing hurdles now,’ ” Haugen said. “I want to do well in high jump again and maybe triple jump, too, because I almost placed last year.”

Fun facts

Color the flag

Often on Memorial Day, you will see many flags out on homes and businesses, and in cemeteries and on gravestones of those who have served their country.

Have you ever wondered what the stars and stripes of the U.S. flag means?

Take a look at the picture for some details.

it is not known exactly why the red, white and blue were chosen, but some people think the colors were taken from the Union Jack flag of England.

The stars are white, behind the stars is blue, and the stripes alternate red and white, beginning with red at the top.

When the Continental Congress created a seal for the United States, the colors were described

by Charles Thompson, secretary of the Continental Congress, in this way: “White signifies purity and innocence, red, hardiness and valour, and blue ... signifies vigilance, perseverance and justice.”

angels from the attic

The 13 red and white stripes are for the 13 original colonies.

The flag features 50 stars, one for each of the 50 states.
