And of Brenda’s first-place story for in-depth reporting, the judges wrote: “This story is a ‘wow’ from start to finish. Reporter Brenda Schory did something few could do – landed an interview with a man who had been charged with groping a 3-year-old boy on a plane.”

Money raised to go toward new outdoor furniture

It helps with my long commute. I’ve tried music, but it’s not the same.”

Francine Gibbons attended the fundraiser with her husband, Tom. The two Sugar Grove residents said they have

really enjoyed the library’s special events.

“The director [Shannon Halikias] has done a really good job of getting and promoting the programs here,” Francine said. “I’m interested in owls and I see they’ve got an event about owls. I think it’s more geared for kids, but it’s some-

thing I’m interested in so I might attend.”

Sugar Grove resident Nora Munro brought her husband, Scott, and daughter, Kennedy, 5, out for breakfast.

With a young daughter and a son on the way, there’s little doubt the Munro family will continue to utilize the library

Paranormal researcher to give lecture at Waubonsee

By VIOLET MARQUARDT editorial@kcchronicle.com SUGAR GROVE – Waubonsee Community College will take a walk on the “other side” Nov. 4 with guest speaker Chris Fleming.

Fleming, a world-famous medium, paranormal researcher and spiritualist, will present a lecture on his encounters with the spirit world, as well as news on paranormal research.

Although it may seem a bit eccentric, Fleming is not the first guest speaker of this caliber to talk at Waubonsee.

“We present a variety of things; we’ve had people sim-

ilar to Chris Fleming before and it was really popular,” said Doug Grier, dean for community education. “We try to put on things people want to see.”

Grier said the event has been in the works for about a year.

“Most events we plan are done about a year in advance,” Grier said. “This event we started planning in October [2015], and typically the planning process goes from about October to May.” Grier said he found Fleming after a quick internet search for a paranormal speaker. The community college gives preference to guest speakers who are from surrounding areas. Il-

linois native Fleming is the son of former Chicago Blackhawks player Reggie Fleming.

“A lot of his investigations and things he’s done have come out of the state of Illinois,” said Chris Fleming’s agent Doug Nikodem of GP Entertainment.

“He’s investigated all around the world. The guy has literally been to every paranormal hotspot. Chris has really dedicated his life to this.”

Some of Fleming’s past work includes his magazine, Unknown Magazine, which explores the paranormal world, UFOs and other things of that nature. Even though the magazine is no longer in publication,

Fleming continues to release his work through his website, unknownmagazine.com. Fleming also co-hosted Living TV’s “Dead Famous” and has appeared on “Psychic Kids,” and “Ghost Hunters.”

According to various interviews and publications he’s released, Fleming has been having paranormal experiences since he was 4 years old.

“He’s a paranormal investigator and he is what they call a ‘sensitive.’ A sensitive means that he has an extra sense to feel a spirit,” Nikodem said.

The event will take place at 7 p.m. Nov. 4 in the auditorium of the Sugar Grove campus, lo-

cated at Route 47 and Waubonsee Drive. Tickets are $10.

“We still have a few spots open, but with events like these they tend to sell out a few days before the actual event, so my guess is that’s what will happen here, too,” Grier said.

The college has sold out of tickets to Fleming’s Ghost hunting event. For $25, Fleming will take residents to local spots where paranormal activity has been recorded. Tickets for both ghost hunting and the lecture were $29.

“Chris is a really great guy to work with and I’m sure everyone will find the lecture interesting,” Nikodem said.

SUGAR GROVE – Cathy Scott spends a lot of time in her car, usually commuting about two-and-a-half hours to work and back, five days a week.

She’s tried listening to music to provide some sort of company during those long rides, but nothing has eased her drive like audiobooks.

Scott is a patron of the Sugar Grove Public Library and usually gets through a new audiobook every week, so she’s visiting the library frequently.

She stopped in Oct. 29 for the Pancake Breakfast and Sausage Fundraiser, which helped the library raise money for the new outdoor furniture that’s already been installed.

It was bought from Messenger Public Library in North Aurora, which is undergoing renovations.

There also was a raffle and used book sale at the fundraiser.

“I love to read, but I spend a lot of time in the car and the [audiobook] selection here is excellent,” Scott said. “For me, I’m in the car so much that I

for years to come. Plus, Nora is a school teacher.

“The breakfast was great,” she said. “Too bad last night’s Cubs game wasn’t.”

Brady Betustak, a fifth-grader at Kaneland John Shields Elementary School, said he would’ve preferred bacon because it’s his favorite breakfast food, but he still enjoyed the pancakes and sausage.

“I really like bacon,” he said. “I come here mostly for books, but sometimes for video games or movies.”

Jane Klingberg was one of the volunteers who helped with the breakfast. She donated her time as a member of the Sugar Grove Chamber Women’s League, which creates networking opportunities through social and service events such as the library fundraiser.

“Our mission is to provide volunteer hours to nonprofits within our area,” she said.

“This is a very good one, so I’m happy to be here. We usually do one or two events a month.”

Sugar Grove resident Joan Perrin visits the library weekly. She stopped in for the breakfast to offer her support.

“I mainly come to the library because I like to read,” she said. “I do participate in some of the other programs if there’s something I’m interested in. I’ve been looking at the essential oils [class Nov. 6] and I may sign up for that one.”

Holiday Spirit Campaign seeks donations

By SUZANNE FLYNN editorial@kcchronicle.com

Get to know Elizabeth Sullivan

By TARAH THORNE tthorne@shawmedia.com

Elizabeth Sullivan of Batavia was at Ream’s Meat Market in Elburn when she answered questions for News Editor Tarah Thorne.

Thorne: Where did you grow up?

Sullivan: River Forest Thorne: What’s your favorite movie?

Sullivan: “[National Lampoon’s] Christmas Vacation” Thorne: What was your very first job?

Sullivan: Working as a secretary in a doctor’s office Thorne: As a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

Sullivan: A nurse, and I am.

Thorne: What’s your favorite band?

The 2016 Kaneland Holiday Spirit Campaign is in full swing and accepting donations.

The campaign is a joint effort of the local school district, area organizations, churches, social service agencies and Conley Outreach Community Services. They come together to help Kaneland area families in need.

“This program started over 15 years ago to help just a few Kaneland families that had been identified as having financial difficulties due to parent deaths, job loss and other circumstances,” said Carol Alfrey, Conley Outreach/West Towns director.

“It has grown from helping a handful of families to over 50 families each year.”

Unfortunately, many local families continue to live in economic crisis, so the need is still there for help. Last year, the campaign was able to help 49 families, including 118 children. All of it was made possible through generous donations from individuals, families, organizations, churches and businesses in the Kaneland community.

“Families receiving the donations are chosen based on verification of

There are two different ways for people living in the community to assist the Holiday Spirit Campaign.

Interested parties can either make a monetary donation – payable to Holiday Spirit – that will be used to buy gifts for families, or they can anonymously sponsor an entire family and buy gifts for that family.

“We have been fortunate to have several organizations help us throughout the years, including the [Elburn] Lions Club who donates books and toys and the Sugar Grove Fire [Protection District] who traditionally donates stockings,” Alfrey said.

This year Elburn-based Pat White Construction hosted a golf outing at Hughes Creek Golf Course in Elburn and donated 100 percent of its profits – nearly $3,000 – to the Holiday Spirit

Campaign.

“Every year we somehow have more than enough for the families in need,” Alfrey said. “Which gives us the opportunity to help them throughout the year with financial emergencies or [bills] with any leftover funds from the Holiday Spirit Campaign.”

Anyone interested in adopting a family for the holidays must commit

by Nov. 8. Monetary donations can be made at any time; however, donations of toys or gifts cards must be received by Dec. 2. Donations are to be dropped off by appointment at Conley Outreach, 54 Snow St., Sugar Grove; or Conley Outreach West Towns, 525 N. Main St., Room 10, Elburn. The dropoff location is determined by where the receiving family lives.

The collection, sorting and distribution processes of donations are done by Holiday Spirit staff to protect the privacy of families receiving assistance.

“We are so fortunate to receive donations and monetary gifts ... to help us spread the cheer to all of our families each and every year,” Alfrey said. “Our community always comes through for us.”

1 killed, 8-year-old son hurt in crash near Sugar Grove KANE COUNTY CHRONICLE editorial@kcchronicle.com SUGAR GROVE TOWNSHIP – A 31-year-old Plano man was killed and his 8-year-old son was injured Oct. 29 in a crash that occurred about 5:10 a.m. near Sugar Grove, according to a news release from the Kane County Sheriff’s Office.

Esteban Velazquez, of the 3000 block of Hoffman Street, Plano, was driving a 2007 Mercury Montego, traveling west on Jericho Road, west of Route 47, when a witness advised that the Mercury passed another ve-

hicle, the release stated.

The Mercury began to enter a curve in the road when it then went off the road and into the westbound shoulder. It spun and rear-ended a large tree on the south side of Jericho Road, the release stated.

Velazquez and his son had to be extricated by fire personnel. Velazquez was airlifted to Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital in Downers Grove where he was pronounced dead, the release stated.

His son, who had been sitting in the back seat, was taken to Rush-Copley Medical Center in Aurora where

he was treated for non-life threatening injuries. Both patients were wearing seat belts at the time of the crash, the release stated.

A preliminary investigation showed speed played a role in the crash, but Kane County Sheriff’s Office detectives had not immediately determined whether texting, alcohol or drug use led to the crash, the release stated.

Jericho Road was closed between Route 47 and Mighell Road for about five hours while the crash was under investigation, according to the release.

Sugar Grove police investigate overnight car burglaries were not locked at the time.

The reports stated that 10 burglaries occurred that day in the 200 block SUGAR GROVE – A slew of motor of Bastian Drive, 100 to 300 blocks of vehicle burglaries were reported Oct.

Rollins said his department is following up on leads, and the burglaries remain under investigation.

“We would advise residents to keep their cars locked and make sure their personal items are not visible within their cars,” he said.

By Sandy Bressner, photo editor at the Kane County Chronicle

When photographing haunted houses, I prefer to stay in the daylight. There are a couple reasons for this: one is so that I can see what I’m doing, and photos look better when you can actually see what’s being photographed; the other reason is that I don’t enjoy being scared out of my wits while carrying a dozen pounds of expensive cameras and lenses.

While touring the Batavia Park District’s Haunted Quarry recently, I noticed this skeleton, sunning itself perfectly.

Older adults, in particular, should take note if their central vision becomes blurry, hazy, or crooked. These are symptoms of “age-related macular degeneration” (AMD), which is the leading cause of legal blindness among seniors.

It is important to diagnose AMD in its early stages to prevent severe vision loss. This eye condition, which involves deterioration of the central portion of the retina (called the “macula”), takes two forms: “Dry” AMD is caused by the formation of waste products (“drusen”) underneath the retina that cause atrophy. The more serious “wet” AMD involves the formation of leaky abnormal blood vessels beneath the retina. Typically, AMD progresses from the dry to the wet form, but some patients present with wet AMD initially.

P.S. While anyone may develop either dry or wet AMD after about age 50, the average onset of wet AMD usually occurs in a person’s late 70s to early 80s.

When you think of nuts – the kind that grow on trees – it’s hard to not think of squirrels.

They are, after all, the most highly touted nut-gatherers in these parts, collecting the trees’ bounty almost as quickly as it falls. In fact, squirrels will even chew off acorn-laden branches to make the harvest easier.

These tendencies are so well known, they’ve been spun off into a common verb. Have you ever “squirreled away” a little something for a rainy day?

But working just as diligently as squirrels, particularly around oaks, is another animal that’s just as nuts about nuts: the blue jay, Cyanocitta cristata.

If you have a birdfeeder in your yard, you might already have witnessed these birds’ amazing hoarding skills. Digging their bills into the seeds, then tipping their heads back, blue jays at a full feeder look to be stuffing themselves silly.

It’s true, squirrels visit feeders, too, and help themselves to generous quantities of sunflower seeds and corn.

But squirrels are like shoppers in the express lane at Jewel – they get only a few items at a time. Blue jays, in contrast, are like customers at Sam’s Club. They stock up, taking the bird equivalent of a cartload of groceries all in one trip, then stash, or cache, them for use at a later date.

Former county deputy clerk pleads guilty to stealing money

Information in Police Reports is obtained from local police departments.

Individuals in Police Reports who have been charged with a crime have not been proved guilty in court.

RITA E. LUCCHETTI

Rita E. Lucchetti, age 91, of Geneva, IL passed away October 29, 2016.

Arrangements by Malone Funeral Home, Geneva, 630-232-8233.

Thursday, November 3, 2016 • KCChronicle.com / The Herald

Father Philip M. Kremer, O.S.B., age 86, a Benedictine monk of Marmion Abbey, Aurora, Illinois, died peacefully in the Lord early in the morning of Friday, October 28, 2016.

He is survived by members of his monastic community; his sisters, Marie Kremer and Roswitha (Malcolm) Woodman; brother Elmar (Martha); and 18 nephews and nieces.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Jacob and Teresa (Deck); and by two brothers, Rudy and Norbert.

Father Philip was born on November 14, 1929, and was baptized Leo at Holy Trinity Catholic Church in St. Louis, Missouri. He graduated from McBride High School in St. Louis in 1947 and then attended St. Louis University for two years, receiving a BA at St. Procopius College in 1954.

He entered Marmion Abbey in 1951, professing his first vows as a monk August 15, 1952. He was ordained a priest on May 11, 1957. He subsequently earned a Masters degree in Botany at the Catholic University of America and a PhD in Secondary Education - Biology at Northern Illinois University. From 1959 to 2000 Father Philip served as an educator at Marmion Academy teaching Physics, Biology, Life Science, Computer Science and other science courses. Fr. Philip wrote his own text and work books for all of his science courses. He served as the Chairman of the Academy’s science department for forty years. Father Philip served as a visiting scientist at the Argonne National Labs for four years and studied under National Science Foundation Grants at a variety of universities. After retiring from teaching, Fr. Philip remained coordinator of AP testing and Audio-Visual material for the Academy for several years.

After his retirement from teaching, Father Philip maintained an active schedule of parish assistance ministry and at the abbey was often seen working in the garden or making wreaths at Christmas time. He remained committed to a regular schedule of daily prayer and to maintaining an active participation in the daily life of the community until his sudden death. He will be fondly remembered by all as a joyful and kind man, faithful to God, his vocation and his family.

Father Philip’s body will be received by his monastic community and family on Tuesday, November 1, at 4:00 P.M. Visitation will be from 4:00 P.M. until 8:00 P.M. in the Abbey Church at 850 Butterfield Road, Aurora, Illinois. The Office of the Dead will be prayed at 6:30 P.M. Visitation will continue on Wednesday, November 2, from 9:00 A.M. until the Mass of Christian Burial which will be celebrated at 10:30 A.M. Burial will follow in the Marmion Abbey Cemetery.

OUR VIEW

Get out and vote Nov. 8 – it’s just a few days away. And, sure, the presidential election has gripped most of our attention (or caused some of us to run and hide), but a handful of local elections also deserves the consideration of Kane County voters.

Readers in the Kane County Chronicle’s coverage area will be asked to vote in at least one of the following races: U.S. House District 6, U.S. House District 11, U.S. House District 14, Illinois Senate District 25, Illinois House District 50, Kane County coroner, Kane County Board District 6, Kane County Board District 10, Kane County Board District 16 and Kane County Board District 18.

Information about candidates in these races is available through the Chronicle’s Election Central website, www.kcchronicle.com/ election-central. There, the candidates have been asked to submit biographical information about themselves, as well as answer a list of election-related questions.

Many of these candidates also have their own campaign websites, have been attending forums and are walking door to door to meet voters.

This is your chance to find out who will best represent you in government, and we urge readers to learn about the candidates and vote.

Need to find your polling place, determine your voter registration status, or view a sample ballot?

Visit www.kanecountyelections.org and enter your information in the available fields.

We live in a democracy, so vote for the candidate you think will best represent you and your vision for how exceptional our community can be.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

Where has all the political signage gone?

With only days before the presidential election, front yards usually blossoming with signs shouting out candidates’ names lie dormant, silent, uncommitted.

This is the autumn of voters’ discontent. Aside from a few red, white and/or blue posters heralding a local politician, nothing has cropped up, as though lawns fear wearing a presidential choice on their green sleeves.

Do front yards dread their Hillary Clinton signs will prompt Donald Trump supporters to egg their houses better than a closed-door, lights-out, trick-or-treat refuse-nick’s? Are they scared to display a Trump badge because their caretakers may be imagined among a basket of deplorables?

Well, yeah, probably, something like that.

Even though political maps paint Illinois blue, Kane County bleeds red. A few stalwart Democrats wander untethered among the GOP majority, but, if smart, they go undercover, unwilling

RIVER TOWN CHRONICLES Rick Holinger to admit party affiliation at cookouts, Swedish Days or barn raisings. Easier to shrink from revealing their penchant for raising taxes on one-percenters, helping college students with overburdening loans and raising the minimum wage, than hearing ad nauseum about the fantasy of trickle-down theory and the horrors of Obamacare.

But even with strength in numbers, this year, Republicans have shirked their duty to publicly herald their nominee. Instead of cul-de-sacs, circle drives and downtown historical homes thundering crimson elephant herds trumpeting Trump’s name across their lawns, they refuse to tout their inclination.

Which raises the question, have Republicans turned libertarian, their Plan B to vote for a guy who doesn’t know Aleppo from Alpo?

Or might conservatives be going green, doing an aboutface, recognizing climate change for the planet-threatening heat and catastrophic weather it ignites, instead of pooh-poohing it?

Hey, I’m messin’ with ya.

Of course no slash-entitlements, build-a-wall advocate is going to vote green.

Hold on. There is evidence that voters have had enough of everyone! My wife, Tia, was walking our dog when she texted a photo of a yard sign with a large green check in a box designating “None of the above.”

Oh, wait. That doesn’t work, either. Although its comic effect is undeniable – as well as understandable – its message reeks of cop-out.

A vote for Nobody means a vote for Everybody. Choosing to sit this one out allows the weakest candidate to win – and the non-committed, unwilling-to-take-a-stand voters deserve the person they really didn’t want elected.

If, with a magic wand, I could change the presidential

candidates, I’d have lawn signs urging: • “Sully for president” • “Elect millennials: When the nation’s checkbook is overdrawn, they’ll call their parents for more money” • “Put the old fogeys in congress; they might not get anything done (except mow the lawn), but it’ll get them out of the house (paid for by The League of Old Fogeys’ Wives)” • “Vote for planet Earth before she can no longer run.”

The point is, no matter whom you vote for, follow Nike’s advice and just do it.

Your town, your country, your planet and, maybe your life, depend on it.

It’s like an addiction.

No matter how many times I listen to their songs, I never get tired of them. Everyone should have a band or artist who makes them feel this way. Luckily, I have found my band. concerts that I’ve gone to have been very energetic, danceable and loud. Without a doubt, at the concert, I’m sure there will be several moments like those, but I am expecting more of a tranquil atmosphere. This type of concert will be very intimate.

Everyone will be gathered together to listen to the one band that everyone in the room loves. Truly, that is one of the best parts about concerts. All around, you’re surrounded by a bunch of strangers. Yet, while everyone has their own lives and different interests, everybody in the room shares a special bond and a mutual love for the band up on the stage.

The weeks are winding down until the concert day finally arrives. Lately, I’ve been listening to The 1975 nonstop. It’s like an addiction. No matter how many times I listen to their songs, I never get tired of them.

Everyone should have a band or artist who makes them feel this way. Luckily, I have found my band.

LETTERS Vote for my wife

To the editor: I first met Corinne about 10 years ago. She was director of the Center for the Arts at Little City Foundation in Palatine, a facility that provides services for individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities. I knew right then how special she was, and one year later, we were married.

There are so many reasons why I fell in love with Corinne. I discovered her commitment to her family, her dedication to service and her incredible work ethic. Today with our three grown children and four grandchildren, we look forward to celebrating another happy wedding anniversary.

Corinne’s devotion to her family, community and career has only grown stronger with time. Corinne’s commitment to helping her community is clear: helping nonprofits succeed, lowering taxes on the St. Charles School District 303 Board and as a board member of the United Way, the St. Charles Housing Commission and the Illinois Business Enterprise Council.

As she has brought this energy, courage and determination to our family and her community, Corinne will also bring to Springfield a commitment to service and duty to the state Senate district and everyone in it.

I hope that you have a chance to meet her and speak to her about the issues that are affecting you and your family – such as property tax relief, local education and affordable housing for

There have been concerts that I have been forced to go to, and other concerts that I’ve bought tickets to and have been excited for to a certain extent. On Nov. 14, it will not be one of those types of concerts. On that day, my two friends and I are going to see a band called The 1975. Many of you probably have no idea who this band is. They aren’t megastars, and I am more than content with that. I’ve been wanting to see this band in concert since I started listening to them about a year and a half ago. Mainly, I have been anticipating the day to see them since I first got tickets months ago.

At the beginning of the year, when the band announced an upcoming tour, I quickly looked up the concert dates to see what cities they would stop in. I found out that the band was playing a show in Chicago, and I instantly knew I had to grab a pair of tickets. Once tickets went on sale, I grabbed my credit card and hopped on my computer to race to buy three tickets. Frankly, it’s a good thing I got tickets as soon as I did because the show sold out quickly. In fact, because the Chicago show sold out so fast and since there was such a high demand for tickets, a second Chicago show was added.

There’s something about The 1975’s music that is so soothing and lovely. They’re one of those bands that doesn’t necessarily have a specific music genre. They can be considered pop rock or alternative rock, but again, it’s hard to pinpoint an exact genre. They have a few songs that make you want to dance, of course, but, most of their songs are just calm, slow and so beautiful with lyrics that can be so heartbreaking and emotional. At least, that is how I personally describe their music. Essentially, it’s sort of difficult to describe the feeling that I get while listening to them. I suggest you look up a few of their songs and decide for yourself if you enjoy the band.

BELVIDERE – Nine of the top 20 Class 2A girls cross country teams in the state were among the 18 teams on the starting line at the Belvidere sectional race Oct. 29. But their state rankings, conference titles, and regional results meant nothing.

Less than 20 minutes of racing over Belvidere’s 3-mile course would decide which five teams and seven individuals would punch their tickets to the state meet Nov. 5.

Check off Kaneland as “Ticket Punched.”

The Knights finished fourth in the loaded field with 193 points to move on to state.

“Our girls produced their best team effort of the season … and we needed that to advance from the toughest 2A sectional in the state,” head coach Doug Ecker said.

A young team that has been on the move all season, the Knights once again were led by freshman Rachel Richtman, who arrived at the finish line in seventh place in 18:07. She finished ahead of six all-state performers from last season.

Behind Richtman, Kaneland’s other scorers were sophomore Grace Purcell (31st, 19:10), junior Andrea Wells (40th, 19:22), senior Becca Richtman (47th, 19:41), and sophomore Tessa Brennan (68th, 20:14). Abby Shaw (80th, 20:36) and sophomore Emma Ball (91st, 21:08) also ran at the sectional.

“Rachel, Becca and Grace all ran 3-mile personal bests on a course that is deceptively difficult,” Ecker said. “The keys to our success were the strong last miles run by Becca, Grace and Andrea, who all passed numerous runners to seal a fourth-place finish for us.”

With their 193 points, the Knights finished behind state No. 1-ranked team and sectional champ Belvidere North (56 points), No. 3-ranked Vernon Hills (89) and No. 4-ranked Crystal Lake Central (93). Kaneland was ahead of No. 5-ranked Lakes, which placed eighth as a team with 226 points.

It is the fifth time in the past six years that the Kaneland girls have qualified for the state meet.

Running on a course where times under 15 minutes are very hard to come by, the Kaneland junior came close with a time of 15:04 to place third overall and book a return trip to the state meet.

“Since 2008 we’ve raced on the Belvidere course seven times and only had three other runners break 16:00, so Matt’s performance today was outstanding,” Kaneland head coach Chad Clarey said.

The finish was even more impressive considering the litany of elite teams and individuals in the race.

Grayslake Central, Crystal Lake Central, Sterling, Sycamore, Lakes, Hampshire, Belvidere North, Dixon and Prairie Ridge were all ranked among the state’s top 25, and Richtman was one of five returning all-state runners in the field.

From the start of the race, Richtman was the only runner in the field who tried to run with Grayslake Central senior Matt Aho, a 2015 all-stater, and he did so through about two miles. Richtman finished ahead of everyone but Matt Aho (14:54) and twin brother Jack Aho, the 2015 state champ who won the sectional with a time of 14:36.

“It’s been exciting to watch Matt’s success this season,” Clarey said. “The biggest improvement he’s made has been improving his finishing kick, which is now absolutely blazing. In addition to being a great runner, he is also a great person … modest, hard-working, and always encouraging his teammates.”

Freshman Daniel Occhipinti (45th, 16:35), senior Andrew Kantola (69th, 16:58) and sophomore Aidan Lodwig (76th, 17:03) also ran at the sectional but did not advance to state in the Belvidere sectional field of 140 runners.

By JESSE SEVERSON jseverson@shawmedia.com BURLINGTON – Kaneland senior Cameron Wyant calmly raised her arms over her head while teammate Jessica Weber flexed and screamed.

The pair had reason to celebrate. For the first time in four years, Kaneland’s girls volleyball team claimed a regional championship.

A tip kill by Wyant was the game-winner as the No. 1-seeded Knights survived for a 2518, 22-25, 25-19 victory against No. 5 Sycamore in a wild Class 3A regional final at Burlington Central on Oct. 27.

“Relief, a little bit,” Wyant said about what she was feeling after the win. “It was a really intense game, and to have it over is exciting and relaxing.”

The Knights advanced to face LaSalle-Peru in a sectional semifinal at Freeport on Nov. 1.

The Knights (32-4) got another big night from Weber, who had a team-high 21 kills and added 14 digs.

Kaneland sophomore Katie Jablonski had 14 kills and 12 digs, senior setter Hannah Nauert had 47 assists, and senior libero Jessica Nguyen had 21 digs.

For the Knights, it was a little bit of revenge after the Spartans beat them 25-22, 25-22 in Maple Park late in the season.

“I really wanted [the regional championship]. Since Day 1, it’s been our goal,” Weber said.

“We have not won regionals in like four years, so it was something we knew we’d have a lot of pressure – especially since it was facing Sycamore. We really wanted our revenge, and we got it. Most of all, we trusted each other throughout the whole match, and we went out and made it happen.”

Sycamore senior Cassandra Hunt was extraordinary in the loss, finishing with 27 kills – including several critical stretches that allowed the

Spartans (14-21-2) to force a third set against the Northern Illinois Big 12 East champion.

“She did exactly what I thought she would do,” Sycamore coach Jennifer Charles said. “She was going to lead and put this team on her back.

She’s a very competitive person. That’s just her nature.”

With the Knights leading 21-18 in the final set, three of their final four points came on kills from Wyant, who had six on the night. One of the plays of the night came with the Knights leading, 23-19. With Hunt’s attack bouncing off Weber and heading toward the Kaneland bench, Nyguen ran it down to keep it alive, and Weber sent it back over the net and the Knights eventually earned the point.

“I think that just lifted them up even higher,” Kaneland coach Cyndi Violett said.

“We came out that second set a little flat, and I think they were nervous – they might not look like it, but I think they were excited and nervous at the same time.”

In the first set, the Spartans controlled the game with an early 8-6 lead after a kill

by Hunt, but the Knights answered with a 5-0 run to take the lead and later used a 6-0 run – which included two aces

by Weber – to gain an 18-11 advantage. The Spartans never got to within three the rest of the frame.

Despite dropping the first set, the Spartans jumped out to a 7-1 lead in the second – with three early kills by Hunt – and never trailed. The Knights made it interesting, however.

After a kill by Sycamore’s Maizy Larson gave the Spartans a 24-18 lead, Kaneland rallied with four straight points before the Spartans sealed the win.

Kaneland’s Jessica Weber dives for the ball Oct. 25 during a semifinal match against Marengo at the Class 3A Burlington Central regional. The Knights defeated Marengo then topped Sycamore in the regional final.

Knights make short work of Marengo in regional semifinal

By JESSE SEVERSON jseverson@shawmedia.com BURLINGTON – Kaneland’s girls volleyball team showed there’s a reason it’s the top seed in the Class 3A Burlington Central regional.

The Knights were efficient all night and dominated No. 7 Marengo for a win in straight sets, cruising 25-9, 25-10 in the regional semifinal Oct. 25. “[We] just had to stay up in a game like this. You have to stay with your speed of the game and it’s hard to do that when you’re playing a team that doesn’t have that speed of the game,” Kaneland coach Cyndi Violett said.

“Just stay focused, run our plays and speed up the offense.”

The Knights (31-4) trailed only once the entire night, that coming when the Indians (9-20) earned the first point of the second set.

Like it has done most of the season, Kaneland didn’t hurt itself and finished with just six attacking errors –

three in each set.

“We work on it in practice and we work on finding shots and mixing up our shots,” said Kaneland senior Jessica Weber, who finished with six kills and 10 digs. “Finding the areas on the court that are open for a kill is pretty easy for us, especially since we work on it in practice all the time.”

Sophomore Katie Jablonski led the Knights with seven kills and added 10 digs, senior Cameron Wyant had four blocks, and senior setter Hannah Nauert finished with 16 assists.

For Marengo, Alexis Nakoneczny had a season-high 12 digs and setter Abigail Vito had seven saves and six assists. “[Kaneland] is very fast,” Marengo coach Meg Dobbertin said. “They run a very quick offense. Being able to make quick transitions is what makes them so difficult. ... [Our] girls are very young. A lot of them haven’t seen the regional floor until our play-in game.

They stuck together as a group the en-

tire season.”

For most of the match, Kaneland lived up to its bill of a team that broke a school record for wins in a season.

Leading 11-6 midway through the first set, the Knights rattled off six straight points, capped by an ace by Jablonski. Holding an 18-8 lead, they kept the foot on the gas and ended the set on a 7-1 run, including the game-winning point on an ace by Nauert.

“We just wanted to stay focused and play at our level and our potential,” Weber said.

Marengo was trailing only 8-6 in the second set after an ace by Riley Connell, but Kaneland responded with an 8-0 run and later added a 7-2 surge that featured three blocks by Wyant, including one that ended the match.

The Knights took the regional crown Oct. 27 when they defeated No. 4 seed Sycamore 25-18, 22-25, 25-19.

Earlier in the season, the Spartans Kaneland’s Alex Anderson hits the ball over had beaten the Knights 25-23, 25-23 in the net Oct. 25 during a regional match against Marengo.

The chipotle-barbecue chicken flatbread is one of the shareable small plates at Bar Evolution, newly opened in Batavia on the east bank of relaxed place where you feel really the Fox River.

rtomell@shawmedia.com BATAVIA – Watching his new bar take shape in a building along a stretch of Batavia riverside property undergoing its own transformation, owner John Hamel came up with the name for his latest enterprise, Bar Evolution.

It sits on the water’s east bank at 27 N. River St., where a ribbon-cutting ceremony is planned by the Batavia Chamber of Commerce at 5 p.m. Nov. 11. Drink specials and raffles will be part of the festivities of the grand opening weekend Nov. 11 to 13.

Hamel already has an affinity for the street, where Pal Joey’s sits a few doors to the north. He is co-owner of both the Batavia and West Chicago locations of Pal Joey’s, a restaurant and bar whose origins date back more than 40 years.

He said the community has invested money in reshaping the Batavia streetscape, where a major residential development is planned.

“I love the street, and what’s happening with the [new] bar is it’s evolving into something a little different,” Hamel said.

In gutting the building to create an inviting space for Bar Evolution, he served as general contractor. He said the historically significant building was once a creamery in the 1800s.

ELBURN – The eighth annual Artisan Craft and Food Fair takes place Nov. 12 and 13 at Heritage Prairie Farm on Brundige Road in Elburn.

“Perfectly timed for the upcoming holiday season, this year’s event features more than 45 crafters and food vendors,” said Nicole Schultz, the farm’s marketing coordinator.

A number of vendors from previous years will return this year, including Uptown Soda Bread Co. of Naperville, Watershed Soaps of Batavia and Keya’s Mini Donuts of St. Charles, Schultz said.

Ludwig Farmstead Creamery of Fithian, Ill., will bring back its artisan traditional European raw milk cheese, made with milk from Holstein cows.

This year, Ludwig can brag about the blue ribbons it won at the Illinois State Fair for some of its cheeses, according to its website.

Sew Sisters Sew of Sleepy Hollow will offer handmade felted mittens, created from recycled wool sweaters.

Featuring unique patterns and colors, the mittens are also lined with fleece, for maximum comfort.

For one’s health-conscious family and friends, Monika’s Organic Bakery of Sycamore can provide gifts of authentic German breads, crackers, pretzels, sweets and more. Monika’s Bakery uses organic and GMO-free ingredients – sourced locally whenever possible.

Or choose a gift from one of Laura Nolan’s Twinkle Ever After up-cycled, vintage jewelry and accessories.

New vendors this year include Willow and Copper, featuring handmade jewelry made from wood, stone, glass and metal; Treasure Imagination with one-of-a-kind fairy “cabins” made with mostly-organic materials; and Creative Crochet of Oswego, offering crocheted hats, scarves, cowls, cozies and more.

The event will be held in Heritage Prairie Farm’s heated tent, the newly-renovated rustic barn and also in the greenhouse. Schultz said to make sure to stop by the farm store, where more local goods, produce and honey are available for sale. Eventgoers can visit with several animals living at the farm.

Heritage Prairie Farm started in 2006, growing produce in a sustainable, natural way. The farm became USDA-certified organic in 2014, according to its website.

Eat Your Art Out to feature local artists

By BRENDA SCHORY bschory@shawmedia.ocm GENEVA – The third annual Eat Your Art Out event will feature top local artists, a four-course artistic meal, live and silent auctions and a live art performance.

The event is a major fundraiser for the Geneva Cultural Arts Commission so it can fund cultural events in the city, said Jan Schmuckal, a local artist and commission member “It’s a wonderful event – and a foodie thing,” Schmuckal said. “All the dishes created by Herrington executive chef Jeff Potter are one-of-a-kind, created for that evening. He looks at all four pieces of featured art and gets inspiration from each one to help him create a unique dish. Each course will be paired with wine.”

Eat Your Art Out begins with a cocktail hour at 6 p.m. Nov. 5 at the Herrington Inn & Spa, 15 S. River Lane, Geneva, with dinner and a live auction hosted by Geneva Mayor Kevin Burns to follow from 7 to 9 p.m.

Tickets cost $125 per person and are available online at www.geneva.il.us.

Featured paintings to be auctioned will be “Serenity,” from Len Bielefeldt, “What is Happening in Geneva”

by Fatima Figueiredo, “How Pleasant Thy Banks” painted by Schmuckal and “State of Repose” from Karen Bordenave.

Bordenave, 57, a hair stylist at Khroma Salon & Studio in Geneva, said she was recruited by the arts commission to feature one of her paintings when a member saw her work at the salon.

Blogger’s book beats a path to ‘real food’ Popular food blogger Lisa Leake has designed her new cookbook, “100 Days of Real Food: Fast & Fabulous” (William Morrow), as an alternative to unhealthy, prepackaged processed foods.

In her book, Leake presents 100 quick and easy recipes – 25 of which have never been published until now.

Busy home cooks are her audience, especially parents.

Leake, who lives in Charlotte, N.C., with her husband and two daughters, says making and enjoying healthy meals needn’t be difficult or boring.

She covers a lot of ground: breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert and snacks. Look also for supermarket staples and secrets; ideas for adult and kid-packed lunches; and new seasonal meal plans and shopping lists. Her book also offers helpful kitchen tips in the form of food prep guides storage cheat sheets.

The Soup and Stews chapter includes a fine recipe for Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup (at right). Among other interesting dishes are Citrus Salad with Crispy Quinoa; Cauliflower Nuggets; and Easy Baked Falafel (Chickpea Cakes).

Journalist Tom Witom, who lives in Elgin, has written extensively

TOM’S COOKBOOK LIBRARY Tom Witom

“It’s very thrilling,” Bordenave said. “It’s nice to be involved in the community.”

Bordenave’s painting for the event is an oil abstract nude woman seen from her back.

“I do all of it – abstract, realism. I do charcoal, acrylic and oil – pretty much anything but watercolor,” Bordenave said. “I work at the hair salon and … I do [painting] on the side, mostly doing commissions. It’s more than a hobby, but it’s not a full-time job.”

Artists also donated items and creative experiences for a silent auction, Schmuckal said, while artist Pam Hamilton will be creating a piece of art during dinner, which also will be available during the live auction, The money raised supports annual programs such as the Geneva Film

Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup Makes 4 to 5 servings 1 28-ounce can stewed tomatoes (with juice), chopped 1 zucchini, trimmed and cut into 1 inch chunks 1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1 inch chunks 1 onion, finely diced 1 cup frozen (no need to thaw) or fresh corn kernels 1/2 jalapeno, seeded and minced (or keep the seeds if you like it hot!)

“With the exceptionally generous contributions to this year’s event, we hope to exceed prior year values and to expand our artistic reach in the community,” Monaco said.

Prevent inflammation with diet Dear Dr. K: You’ve written that chronic

inflammation has been linked to diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. Is there anything I can do to fight inflammation without using medications?

Dear Reader: Inflammation in the body is a double-edged sword. Short-lived inflammation, directed by your immune system at invaders like bacteria or viruses, protects your health.

But sometimes inflammation persists, even when there is no health threat. That’s when it can become your enemy. Many major diseases have been linked to chronic (ongoing) inflammation, including cancer, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, depression and Alzheimer’s.

The good news is that powerful tools to combat inflammation can be found in the grocery store. I spoke to my colleague Dr. Frank Hu, professor of nutrition and epidemiology in the Department of Nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health. He explained that components of many common foods have anti-inflammatory effects.

By choosing the right foods, you may be able to reduce your risk of illness. Consistently pick the wrong foods, however, and you might speed up the inflammatory disease process.

The same foods that contribute to inflammation are already generally considered bad for our health, so it’s easier to remember them. They include sodas, refined carbohydrates, and red and processed meats.

These foods affect inflammation directly.

They also contribute to weight gain, which is itself a risk factor for inflammation. How does that happen? When you put on weight, the fat cells in your body become more numerous and also grow larger.

We used to think that what fat did was provide a storehouse of energy for when we needed it, sort of like insulation that protected us against the cold. In the past 20 years we’ve learned that fat cells are little factories that make hormones and immune system chemicals. These substances influence our

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff appetite, our metabolism – and inflammation.

To reduce inflammation, avoid or limit: • Refined carbohydrates, such as white bread and pastries; • Fried foods such as french fries; • Soda and other sugar-sweetened beverages; • Red meat (burgers, steaks); • Processed meat (hot dogs, cold cuts); • Margarine, shortening and lard.

On the flip side are foods and beverages that reduce the risk of inflammation and chronic disease. Fruits and vegetables are particularly effective. Good choices are blueberries, apples and leafy greens, which are high in natural antioxidants and polyphenols.

These are protective compounds found in plants. Nuts and coffee may also be protective.

Include plenty of these anti-inflammatory foods in your diet: • Tomatoes • Olive oil • Green leafy vegetables, such as spinach, kale and collards • Nuts, such as almonds and walnuts • Fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, tuna and sardines • Fruits such as strawberries, blueberries, apples, cherries and oranges • Spices, particularly ginger and turmeric If you’re looking for a dietary plan that closely follows the tenets of anti-inflammatory eating, consider the Mediterranean diet. This diet is high in fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, fish and healthy oils.

Dear Abby: I am dating a great guy I have known for 10 years. We dated on and off, but always remained friends. We were friends during my marriage, the birth of my daughter and my divorce.

We are now dating again. I would like things to work out because he is such a great friend and great person. My 9-year-old daughter adores him, too. The problem is, I’m still having a sexual relationship with my ex-husband. The sex is great and I don’t want to stop, but I’m afraid it will come back to haunt me.

I have been involved one way or another with both of these men since 2005. I’d like to just date the guy I am with, but our sex life isn’t nearly as good as it is with my ex. I know I’m being selfish. What should I do? – Divided

you grow taller.

The height of the mother and father is the most dominant factor determining a child’s eventual height. But the height of grandparents and great-grandparents, etc., also plays a smaller role in a child’s height. Relatively short parents can have a relatively tall child, but Mother Nature’s rule is that when both parents are short, their children will follow suit.

Boys continue to grow to somewhere around their 18th birthday and some continue to grow into their 20’s. Most boys have a “growth spurt” where 2 or more inches of height is added in a few months. This usually takes place from age12 to 14.

(These six countries were compared with each other.)

It is notable that the teenage abortion percentage alone in the United States is higher than the combined abortion percentages in the five previously mentioned countries. Those developed countries with the most liberal attitudes toward sex, the most easily accessible contraceptive services for teenagers and the most effective formal and informal programs for sex education have the lowest rates of teenage pregnancy, abortion and childbearing.

France, England and Sweden have a national policy encouraging sex education in the schools.

Holland, Canada and the United States leave it up to the individual schools themselves.

The authors of this study concluded that, although the specific approaches used vary from country to country, increasing the legitimacy and availability of contraception and sex education (in its broadest sense) have been effective in reducing teenage pregnancy rates in other developed countries and that there is no reason to believe such an approach would not be successful in the United States.

They note that “American teenagers, at present, have inherited the worst of all possible worlds regarding their exposure to messages about sex. (The media) tell them that sex is romantic, exciting, titillating ... yet at the same time (they) get the message that good girls should say no. Almost nothing they see or hear about sex informs them about contraception or the importance of avoiding pregnancy.”

DEAR ABBY Fall is here and as we prepare Jeanne for a change in Phillips the weather, it’s also the time we turn our clocks back an hour from daylight saving time. Something that everyone also needs to change could save their lives. That “something” is the battery inside household devices that many take for granted – smoke alarms, smoke detectors or carbon monoxide detectors.

In the U.S., three out of five home fire deaths are caused by fires in homes with no smoke alarms or WORKING smoke alarms.

As a firefighter, I have seen these tragedies firsthand and believe it is my duty to make sure we lower this number. My mission is for no battery to go unchecked.

For the 29th consecutive year, Energizer and the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) are partnering to educate the public about fire safety by reminding consumers of the importance of checking and changing the batteries not only in smoke alarms, but also every device that helps keep us safe and relaxed in our homes.

Think about your smart thermostats, flashlights, home security systems and other critical devices. Many of them have a battery component that must be checked and changed in order to ensure home safety. – Fire Chief

A design with pets in mind

By CAMILLA MCLAUGHLIN Special to The Washington Post SANDY, Utah – Not long ago, a collar, a leash, a bowl and possibly an outdoor kennel were what most people had as pet amenities.

Today, there are designer accessories, electronic feeders, automatic pet doors, special showers and tubs, and flat-screen TVs positioned at Fido’s and Fifi’s heights, not to mention the ultimate luxury: a room of their own.

Some builders are making pets a centerpiece of their home designs – and buyers are responding positively.

In 2014, when Standard Pacific, a builder based in Irvine, Calif., offered pet rooms as an option at a new community in Brea, Calif., prospective buyers and their pets lined up for the grand opening.

Since then, Standard Pacific has expanded such rooms and other pet amenities to all 27 of its communities.

Besides the in-home features, many developments offer dog parks, exercise stations, drinking fountains, wash

Standard Pacific’s national director of architecture. “In one home, I actually had four dogs that piled into my lap.”

Said Rhyse Altman, an architect designer with Visbeen Architects in Grand Rapids, Mich.: “We are finding that pet owners are growing more aware of the benefits of designing homes with pets in mind.”

Altman added, “What we are most concerned with is making it easier for their pets to eat, sleep, play, et cetera, on their own terms with as much independence as possible. The last thing a pet owner wants is to be tripping over food dishes, staring at a kennel in the middle of the living room, smelling the litter box or getting up in the middle of the night to let the dog out.”

Almost every metric – from the Blu, the 5-month-old Great Dane belonging to Blaine Raddon, is shown sitting on a bunk number of pets who go to work with bed in the bedroom of his new home, which is called the dog’s room. their owners to the growing number of areas and group picnic areas for fourmillion households with animals, they people who take their pets with them legged companions. are considered family. when they travel – illustrates how enDogs and cats are no longer rele“Pets were a theme that kept meshed pets have become in our lives. gated to the backyard, barn or musty coming up” in livability research basement.

Blaine Raddon’s new home in the mountains of Sandy, Utah, has many features built in with his dog’s comfort and color in mind.

“The dog settled into the house quicker than we did,” Raddon said. “It took him less than a day to figure out the pet door and the fence. Now, he feels like he is the king of the castle.”

return to the existing natural terrain.

The property has an underground electronic fence for Blu and includes natural spots for him to play.

In Utah, Raddon’s house includes dual offices on the main level that share a bathroom with a walkin shower that Raddon uses as a dog-washing area. The location is just off the garage; another outdoor patio is also nearby.

A place to bathe dogs is another frequent request from pet owners; mud rooms are the setting where dog washes are frequently placed.

Some are elaborate, with seats for owners, steps for easy access if they are not walk-in, and what Lake calls the “all-important hook for a leash to contain those dogs that are wary of the water.” Typically these washing areas are placed near an outside entry or a garage so a muddy dog can be hosed off before entering the house.

Although Raddon’s house may not feature a pet space similar to those offered by Standard Pacific, a bedroom on the second floor has been outfitted to be a hangout for Blu. With a bunk bed, the room is still versatile enough for younger guests, but the oversized bottom bunk is an ideal place for even a Great Dane to stretch out.

Continued from page 43 Americans’ spending on food, supplies and veterinary services reached an all-time high last year and experts are projecting that the number will surpass $60 billion this year.

The demographics of pet ownership are beginning to shift toward millennials and younger owners who, according to a survey by the American Pet Products Association, tend to spend more and pamper their pets more than their parents and grandparents did.

Although baby boomers were the ones who really set the pet-pampering trend in motion, millennials are expected to dote even more on their pets, which means that in future years the term “pet amenities” might take on an entirely different meaning.

“Whatever people want for their pets, they are going to get,” said Rhona Sutter, a real estate agent in Naples, Fla., who founded the Pet Realty Network, which helps prospective buyers find pet-friendly properties.

“Pets are something buyers definitely take into consideration now.”

For one couple outside Salt Lake City, pets were an important consideration in the design of an entire house.

Even though Blaine Raddon and Stacy Johnstun didn’t have a dog when they first thought about build-

“Great Danes really don’t shed very much, but we picked these floors so any shedding would blend in,” Blaine Raddon says. ing, they said having a pet was a part of their life vision.

During the monthslong process of designing the home with architect Russ Platt, they made accommodating a dog or two – and potentially a very large dog – a priority.

Early on, they decided on a breed – Great Dane – but their puppy, a blue male they named Blu, didn’t come on the scene until they were selecting their finishes, tile and flooring.

A grown-up’s guide to creating a kid’s study space 45

What are 5 essentials for kid’s room?

Nancy Twomey started her kid-focused design business by hand-painting chests and drawing murals of stars in New Hampshire. Almost 20 years later, she has become an expert on how to create stylish children’s rooms and has her own design studio in Alexandria, Va., Finnian’s Moon Interiors.

“I have a feel for mixing materials and not wanting children’s spaces to look all new,” Twomey said. “Kids’ bedrooms and nurseries shouldn’t look like furniture showrooms.”

She’s an expert at navigating small spaces and maximizing what’s usually one of the smallest rooms in the house.

She loves finding a color that’s a bit off the grid. “I love a great chartreuse, teal or orange nursery,” she said.

“And that color grows with the child.”

Twomey urges clients to incorporate something special that they already own into a child’s room, or update an old family chest or repurpose a chair.

She cautions against buying typical kidthemed furniture. “You need to anchor a room with something in wood,” she said. “You want to limit the plastic.”

I went shopping in Washington, D.C., with Twomey at Room & Board recently as part of our occasional Tastemakers’

“It’s better to invest in something that will last instead of some cutesy design that will fall apart quickly,” she said.

Here are her top five picks.

• Bunk bed: A bunk bed is the ideal choice for a kid’s room, even if you have only one kid, Twomey said. “The bottom bunk can always be used as a guest bed.” She likes the Fort Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed because of its clean, modern design and airy look

When it’s time for kids to go back to school, smart parents know that in addition to buying school supplies and lunch ingredients, they need to prepare a dedicated study space in their home.

Once a nook is claimed for studying, though, the challenge comes in making it a place a child wants to be. Because if your kid doesn’t like cramming for tests there, what’s the point?

Whether your child is studying at the kitchen table or has a whole room devoted to scholastic endeavors, personalization, ownership and especially color are key. “I am a firm Photo provided by Flor believer that color With Flor carpet tiles, sparks creativity and affects the way even the floor can be creative. you feel in any given space,” said Jenna Gross of Georgia’s Colordrunk Design. “Bright colors can be energizing, and a fun atmosphere will encourage them to work and study.” Balance a generally calm, white study area with bits

(She chose orange.) With four boys of her own, she has a room in her house with two sets of vintage Army barracks bunk beds that she uses for sleepovers and holiday guests.

• Roomy dresser: “I’m a fan of having one big dresser in a kid’s room,” Twomey said. “Pick something in a warm wood in a style that will have longevity.” She liked the Calvin Eight-Drawer Dresser with natural-steel hardware. Her advice for anyone furnishing a child’s room: Go for eight smaller drawers instead of four larger drawers in a chest. “It’s easier for kids to organize when there are individual drawers for each type of clothing.”

• Comfortable chair: Twomey spotted the Crest Swivel Chair in a corner of the store and immediately was drawn to it. She loved its compact, modern silhouette and that it was made in a durable Sunbrella canvas fabric available in a neutral cement gray. “You have to be space-conscious in most nurseries and kids’ rooms because the space often isn’t very large. There is often only room for one chair,” Twomey said. She likes to use small-profile chairs that are made for

• Fabric storage bin: Storage is a huge deal in kids’ rooms, especially since many of the spaces are very small to begin with. And of course, kids tend to have a lot of stuff. Twomey liked the Kori Storage Bin in gray ($99). It’s 14 inches square and 10 inches high, so it can fit under many bed styles. This design is handcrafted in Rhode Island from a braided woolblend fabric. It gives the room texture and warmth, she said. And it’s a nice alternative to plastic storage bins. “I like the fact that this piece is soft, so it won’t scratch or bang the other furni-

• Multipurpose stool: Plastic has its place, Twomey said, if you keep it to a minimum. This plastic stool can add a jolt of color and serve a number of functions in a child’s room. Twomey chose the KidsErgo Stool. It’s 15 inches high, and she could see it used as a kid’s nightstand. It also can be pulled up for extra seating. The stool allows the body to rock gently when a child sits on it, the Room & Board website said, so it helps build strength and flexibility. “I like that it also can be cleaned with a sponge,” Twomey said.

I’ve decorated a lot of kids’ rooms lately, and it’s trendy for parents to freely include their kids in all decisions, whether it’s the color of the walls or the pile thickness of the carpet. The problem with this approach is that most parents want their kids’ rooms to look the way they want, not the way the kids want. So involving a 6- to 16-year-old in the process is a ruse that often leads to someone (usually the kid) being dissatisfied. To have the decorating process go smoothly and end up with both parent and kid happy, you, the parent, need to control the process: Give your kids a taste of self-expression and, at the same time, teach them important life lessons.

Here are a few decorating do’s and don’ts that, if followed, should earn you and your kid an A+ in decorating.

• Use Pinterest and other online tools:

The first thing I do when I start working on a kid’s room is to ask the boy or girl to create a Pinterest board with images of rooms, colors, patterns and anything else that might be informative of his or her style. A quick Google Images search of “kids’ rooms” reaps more pictures than one could ever sift through, so it’s best to edit the results

and rugs. By doing this, you control the outcome, yet your child feels as though he or she is the one making the final decisions.

• Don’t force your habits on your kids:

All too often I hear parents insist that their child’s room have a certain piece of furniture or particular type of furniture arrangement – declarations that usually center on the parents’ habits, not the kid’s. This is especially true of study spaces; parents typically want their kids to have proper workspaces with ergonomic seating and appropriate task lighting, items that are not useful if you have a kid who likes to work on his or her bed.

(Both of my kids work exclusively on their beds, so neither one has a desk.)

• Layer: No matter the chosen design direction, I always layer lots of pillows in kids’ rooms. Young kids use them to make forts, and big kids use them to lounge around, especially when friends are visiting. I also like to layer rugs, particularly if the room has wall-towall carpeting. A fun flokati or colorful striped rug layered on top of wall-to-wall carpeting not only makes sitting on the floor more comfortable but also protects the carpet from spills and stains.

your child have settled on a general design direction for the room and have a list of needed items, you need to create a budget. I like to make a spreadsheet with all items listed, where they are from and how much they cost. I am clear even with young kids that there is a limit to what their parents can afford.

I recently had a design discussion with a sophisticated 10-year-old boy over a light fixture; the one he liked (Poul Henningsen’s iconic Artichoke Lamp, available at Design Within Reach) was more than $9,000. Once he grasped that the fixture cost three times the overall budget for the room, he quickly accepted my suggested replacement: Ikea’s PS 2014 Pendant Lamp for $129.

• Don’t give into fads: Pokémon might be enjoying a renaissance, but I would never allow kids to decorate their rooms based on the creature or trend du jour. Instead, let your kids express their current obsession in small ways: a poster, lampshade or pillow.

• Don’t offer too many choices: Always present kids with edited design choices. This might sound counter to my previous suggestion to surf the entire web for inspiration, but the trick, once a direction is agreed upon, is to present to your child no more than three options (two is even better!) of fabrics, furniture pieces, colors

using the suggested terms that pop up in the navigation bar (specifying color, style, etc.). For younger kids, parents should either surf the internet with them or put together a list of acceptable sites for them to visit.

For help in narrowing down a color scheme, try PPG’s Voice of Color game (ppgvoiceofcolor.com). Users contemplate a series of questions (image and word preferences) that, once answered, prescribe a personalized color palette.

Some of the nine questions might need to be translated for younger kids, but the quick and fun game gives you a starting point to discuss color options.

Some of the most fun my young clients have had is on Furnish Up (furnishup.com), a free, easy-to-navigate program that lets you select, place and rearrange furniture in a virtual room.

Just enter your room dimensions, add windows and doors, then “shop” from a library of currently available items from stores such as Ikea, Pottery Barn, Crate & Barrel and Blu Dot. Although the selection of pieces is limited (and there is no furniture just for kids), you can find generic-enough items that can act as stand-ins. The exercise gives you and your child a good idea of what can fit in the room and what the general floor plan will be.

• STUDY

Continued from page 45 forget to provide display areas for kids’ awards and funny photos of friends.

As Houck puts it, “The most important thing is to make sure the child has ownership over the space and uses it.”

Suggestions for a home study space: • “The older kids don’t need a desk as much because they’re typing on their laptops,” Houck said, “whereas the younger kids still do need a surface.”

Pick something versatile that will grow with your kids, if you have the space, such as the Adjustable Activity Table, in small or medium ($239 to $249, landofnod. com). Perfect for a toddler’s train table and a first-grader’s homework spot.

• “If kids aren’t great at sitting still, a wobble stool or a swinging chair are other great alternatives,” Gross said.

“I would steer clear from a chaise lounge or beanbag; kids may just fall asleep.” The Kore Wobble Chair ($50 to $80, reallygoodstuff.com) for kids comes in four heights – for toddlers, preschoolers, older kids and teens – and has a rounded bottom that lets users rock in small movements.

• Not just for fun, Rustalgic’s typographical decorations, such as the Marquee Ampersand Wall Decor ($126, wayfair.com), which comes in eight colors, also shed light on a study space. They add a whimsical and industrial touch to a room.

• “Make sure kids have proper task lighting,” Houck said. “You need a desk lamp.” Swivel two lights in one fixture with the Olson Collection Two Head Task Lamp ($40, target.com). “You might also need an overhead.”

• The splurge-worthy 19th century British Drum Bookcase ($1,849, rhbabyandchild.com) is a surefire way to give a study space personality. Based on the design of British snare drums, the bookcase has nine cubbies for storage and display.

• With Flor carpet tiles, even the floor is an opportunity to be creative.

“You can almost create any design that you want,” Gross said. “And if there’s a spill, you can take that one square up.” Her pick for happy-making color is Picnic Breakfast, a plaid-inspired medley ($301 to $812, flor.com).

• Basic cream meets bright cotton tufts on the Rainbow Tufts Basket ($20 to $28, anthropologie.com). Use it to tote binders and notebooks around the house if your student is a mobile learner or to store textbooks bedside for teens.

• Chances are, Poppin has your child’s favorite color in chairs, desk accessories, notebooks, pens – or even the Stow Three-Drawer File Cabinet ($229, poppin. com). Bye-bye, boring steel. Hello, orange, yellow, navy, blue, aqua, pink, red, black, white, light gray or charcoal. “When they’re younger, try to teach them that this goes here, this goes there,” Houck said. “Then they have a steppingstone to how they can organize later in life.”

ABOVE: Pin boards, whiteboards and chalkboards, such as the Framed Navy Chalkboard, allow kids to put their individuality on display and change things up over time.

Such boards are a good parent-child DIY project, too.

LEFT: The 19th century British Drum Bookcase is a surefire way to give a study space personality.

• There are lots of seating options for kids today that don’t look like traditional, hard, straight-backed chairs.

For its Fur Rockin’ Roller Desk Chairs ($149 each, pbteen.com), PBteen takes an exercise ball, covers it with a slipcover and adds a chrome base. The chairs come in faux fur or fleece.

• “Having a space dedicated just for

students and their studies helps them stay organized and get things done,” Gross said. Organize paper clips and thumb drives in the Rainbow Mobin Wall-Mounted Organizer ($15, containerstore.com). Each container tips down and can be removed individually.

• “The Kallax shelving unit from Ikea is something I buy for a majority of the kids’

rooms I design,” Gross said. “It is inexpensive, comes in a variety of bright colors and offers varied storage solutions, especially when the custom baskets and bins, also sold by Ikea, are incorporated.” Of green, red, yellow, white, birch and black, Gross’s pick is yellow ($66, ikea.com).

• Because of its sophisticated tufting, adjustable height and casters, the Lorraine Swivel Desk Chair could roll with a teen right through college and beyond ($349, potterybarnkids.com).

Its light-gray linen upholstery could be the tranquil note in an otherwise boisterously colorful space.

• Although color can be fun in a child’s study space, the challenge is to not have it be distracting. “Consider tranquility in the palette,” Houck said.

The pastel mint of the Mid-Century Mini Desk ($399, westelm.com) has personality, but not too much.

• “You’re kind of trying to determine what their taste is,” Houck said, noting that kids’ tastes will continue to evolve, so build in some flexibility.

Pin boards, whiteboards and chalkboards, such as the Framed Navy Chalkboard ($129 to $199, potterybarnkids.com), allow kids to put their individuality on display and change it over time. Such boards are a good parent-child DIY project, too.

MOTORCYCLES WANTED RELEASE DATE: 10/30/2016

Cory Doctorow, a Canadian-British blogger, journalist and science fiction author, wrote, “Abnormal is so common, it’s practically normal.”

At the bridge table, the abnormal happens rarely, and most of the time it is missed, especially on defense.

It is hard to make a play that would normally be suicidal but is the only winner on a given deal.

How should West analyze this layout? South is in four spades. West leads the club queen. South wins with his ace and plays a low trump.

From where should West hope to find four tricks?

North’s Jacoby Forcing Raise showed four-plus trumps and at least game-forcing values. South, with a minimum opening bid and no short suit, jumped to game.

Most defenders sitting West would immediately play second hand low at trick two. Then, though, declarer would win on the board and lead another trump. He would lose only one spade and two hearts.

When the dummy appears, the defenders should ask for a timeout so that they can analyze the deal. Here, West can see two defensive tricks: his spade ace and heart king. He should next count the high-card points. He has 10, and dummy holds 14. That leaves 16 for the other two players.

East can have just one high card.

Which one would be useful?

Only the heart ace. West must win the second trick and shift to the heart king. Here, that works perfectly; the defenders take the spade ace, two top hearts and a heart ruff. But if it turned out that South had the heart ace, this play would cost only an overtrick.

Keep counting those points.

Y E A R S OF COMMUNITY

PA RT N E RS H I P

Over the past five decades, Waubonsee has educated more than 290,000 students-but we haven’t done it alone. During this special anniversary year, we wish to thank the many partners who have helped us create brighter futures for our students and the entire community.

PROTECTING, SERVING and EDUCATING

Our college district’s police and fire organizations serve community members in their traditional capacities every day. But when they team up with Waubonsee, they extend their service to future generations of first responders and the people who will need them. These partners support our criminal justice, emergency medical technician and fire science programs by participating in advisory committees and employing and mentoring our graduates. For all they’re doing to keep our communities safe today and for years to come, we thank them.

With medicine evolving we are able to now offer patients cutting edge treatment options that are alternatives to joint replacement surgery. The Stem Cell Institute of America offers therapies that are cutting edge treatment ideal for improving joint mobility, reducing joint pain and preventing costly and painful surgeries.

At the Wellness Institute of Illinois we have partnered with Stem Cell Institute of America because our providers understand you or someone you love may have been diagnosed with Arthritis, Degenerative Joint Disease or been told you are bone on bone.

We know that as people are diagnosed with these conditions, common

treatments ensue, including OTC medications, prescription drugs, pain killers, physical therapy, injections including cortisone and “rooster comb” (Synvisc, Orthovisc...) and even surgery.

As treatments are tried, the benefit and relief from many of these therapies is short lived and other treatment options are provided to take the previous protocol’s place and still temporary results are obtained. The end result for many of these conditions is major surgery, like a total joint replacement, or live with chronic pain and disability. We have the solution to all these problems and it’s Regenerative Medicine presented by Stem Cell Institute of America.

Stem Cell Institute of America’s protocol uses the healing potential of cells derived from Amniotic and Placental Tissue.

This tissue is a rich source of nonimmunogenic cells nearly eliminating the risk of rejection or side effects while providing an incredible healing force in your body. Over the span of a few weeks to months, the cells and growth factors assist your bodies ability to repair and regenerate cartilage, ligaments, joint fluid, muscles, tissues and even nerves. This simple in office procedure can have an incredible impact on your function and restore your pain free life.
