WHS student advocates for human trafficking awareness

By ALEX SOULIER

About Heather Blaney

asoulier@shawmedia.com WESTMONT – When Westmont High School sophomore Heather Blaney first heard about human trafficking, she was far too young to comprehend the topic’s complex, criminal and dehumanizing nature.

“I think I was in fourth of fifth grade when my mom first told me about human trafficking,” she said. “I was in shock mostly because I didn’t understand it. I didn’t think that kind of thing was still possible, and I thought she was exaggerating.”

But Blaney, 16, never forgot the conversation, and she now has matured from an adolescent to an advocate, organizing a school conference on the subject May 14 and spearheading an anti-trafficking movement at the high school.

“It’s a topic that has always stuck with me,” Blaney said.

“After researching it, I found how rapidly human trafficking has escalated and how prevalent it is not only abroad but also nationally and also at a local level.

■ AGE: 16 ■ GRADE: Sophomore,

Westmont High School ■ WHAT: Organized the Westmont Human Trafficking Conference ■ ACTIVITIES: Soccer and golf

Erica Benson - ebenson@shawmedia.com

Westmont High School student Heather Blaney meets Thursday with Homeland Security Investigations Victim Assistance Specialist Annabelle Marquez before the human trafficking conference.

“So I did a lot of research, and the stats I found were appalling. I felt it was my Christian duty to do something about this and help in any way possible.”

About 100 students and residents attended Blaney’s Westmont Human Trafficking Conference from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

May 14 in the Westmont High School Auditorium.

The evening presentation – which stemmed from a

year-long Changemakers class at the high school – included information booths run by the Department of Homeland Security, the Salvation Army and multiple studentwide groups, as well as a panel discussion and an audience question-and-answer session.

FBI special agents, human trafficking victims, human rights organization representatives and local congressmen all spoke during the confer-

ence, and each explained how pressing an issue human trafficking has become.

“Human trafficking is a very real issue in our society,” FBI Special Agent Tristan Spanger said. “It is refreshing to see students who want to take action and make a difference. It is important that they learn about it now because they are the leaders of the future.”

Blaney’s human trafficking conference is the culmination of a year’s worth of work in her Changemakers class, a Westmont High School course which allows students to explore various passion projects.

While fellow students researched topics such as teenage suicide, bullying and rac-

ism, Changemakers instructor Michelle Torrisse encouraged Blaney to pursue an anti-human trafficking project.

She initially intended to create a website but instead decided to organize a conference. After is was over, Blaney thanked the presenters, her teachers and peers for the help and inspiration.

“I could not have asked for a better group of presenters,” Blaney said. “Organizing the conference was such an amazing experience, and it was so great to see my hard work materialize in front of me.”

But the conference was just the first step for the Westmont resident, who explained she wants to do everything in her power to be an “agent of social change.”

“I’ve learned that there so many people who are even more passionate about stopping human trafficking,” Blaney said. “Down the road, I would love to organize a fundraiser and donate the money to an anti human trafficking organization – anything I can do to help the situation.”

The state fight for a solution to its pension problems took another turn earlier this week when a Sangamon County judge decided to delay its latest effort.

On Wednesday, 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 contractu-

al benefits of state workers “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. Implementation statewide will now 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 pension 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.

“All it does is stay the application of the law, which was stayed anyway,” said Illinois House Rep. Ron Sandack, R-Downers Grove. “It was not budgeted in our 2015 budget at all because we knew there would be a series of lawsuits that will make their way up to the supreme court.

“It’s merely a prudent thing [for the court] to do.”

Sandack said his personal opinion is the bill is constitutional.

“Of course, my opinion is as good as yours or anyone else’s who doesn’t sit in one of the seven seats on the supreme court,” he said.

Sen. Kirk Dillard, R-Hinsdale, expressed a similar opinion.

“We’ve known that it will be a long road through the judiciary for the state’s pension reform, so this is just

Ask Dr. Webster

BURNING MOUTH SYNDROME Q: What is burning mouth syndrome and what causes it?

A: Burning mouth syndrome is a painful disorder that includes a burning feeling in the mouth and lips as well as a loss of taste and a dry mouth. It is difficult to pinpoint the cause of the condition, but it is often associated with chronic anxiety and/or depression. It also is more common in women, particularly after menopause. The condition can also be triggered by oral habits like teeth grinding (also known as bruxism) or repetitive tongue thrusting.

A variety of general health conditions can also cause or contribute to developing the condition. Diabetes, gastro-esophageal reflux disease and anemia are among them. Also, a hormonal imbalance, nutritional deficiencies or a yeast infection in the mouth are sometimes associated with burning mouth syndrome. It’s not uncommon for a patient to start the day with no symptoms, only to have them develop and intensify during the day.

Some studies have focused on the dysfunction of several cranial nerves as a possible cause of burning mouth syndrome. Because of the difficulty in identifying the cause of the problem, diagnosis and treatment may require a collaboration between your dentist and your primary care physician. Whenever you detect an unfamiliar sensation in your mouth, you should consult your dentist as soon as possible.

“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.

Programs, initiatives available in Westmont There’s always something happening in Westmont. Our village is very busy with numerous programs and initiatives.

We invite our residents and businesses to get involved.

Thank you, U.S. Luge Team: The U.S. Olympic Luge Team came to Westmont to hold their regional tryouts. It was very exciting to be able to support our Olympic team in this way. Over 100 young athletes from throughout the Midwest came to town for the tryouts. Also, we had our own private Community Street COMMUNITY Luge Challenge where local orVOICE ganizations competed against Ron each other for bragging rights.

Gunter Thanks to everyone who was part of this exciting event, and thanks to Uncle Bub’s for sponsoring the community challenge.

Downstate update: Village staff and I have traveled to Springfield several times over the past few months to talk with legislators regarding the issues and concerns of our village.

The process has been very enlightening, and I feel our elected officials have been receptive to our ideas and suggestions.

Summer events: Don’t miss the Red, White, & Bar-B-Q and Race To The Flag 5K at Ty Warner Park. The Memorial Day Parade will be at 10:30 a.m. in downtown Westmont. The Westmont Street Fair will be Thursdays from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. in June, July and August in downtown Westmont. Come out every week to see the classic cars, shop the market, participate in the special activities and, of course, shop local. Our July 4 Independence Day Celebration and Fireworks Spectacular will be at Ty Warner Park. The best fireworks in the ‘burbs begin at dusk. And the Taste of Westmont will be July 10 through 13 in downtown Westmont. For information on our community events, go to westmontevents.com.

Stormwater news: For the past year, we’ve been involved with some very important conversations regarding the future of our community’s infrastructure. Our current infrastructure has not been able to handle the size of some of the severe storms we’ve encountered over the past decade. The resident volunteers on our Community Stormwater Management Committee made a recommendation to the village board to look into developing a stormwater utility to create a guaranteed revenue stream to address this issue. It is important residents get involved with this process so your input is incorporated into the final presentation. Our last community meetings will be 7 p.m.

May 24 and June 10 at Village Hall.

Please contact me at rgunter@westmont.il.gov or 630-9816201. I look forward to discussing your ideas regarding how we can continue to make Westmont a great place to live, work, raise a family, go out to eat, buy a car and play.

Westmont Junior High School teacher Nancy Bartosz recently attended a White House Social. During the event, Bartosz live tweeted coverage and corresponded with her students on social media.

Thumbs up to Westmont Junior High School teacher Nancy Bartosz. An employee of CUSD 201 for 20 years, Bartosz keeps finding new ways to expand her breadth of knowledge and educate her students. In 2012, district students tracked her year-long journey around the world, and Bartosz later incorporated her travels into classroom lesson plans. In early May, she attended a White House conference, covering the event on social media platforms and interacting with her students on Twitter throughout the day.

Questioning D-58 stats

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.

No need for library renovation in Lemont

I am at the Lemont library on a regular basis for various reasons and agree with others who have written to Sound Off. I love our library and what it offers. But there is absolutely no need for remodeling, additional meeting rooms, computers, etc. Even the funds already spent for analyzing the “needs” was not necessary. The governing bodies of Lemont need to make more frugal decisions with our tax money. If you’re “looking” for ways to spend tax money, it could be better spent elsewhere in our community. I don’t think there’s a need for examples.

Thanks crossing guards

Thank you to all crossing guards in Brookfield and Riverside for another great school year of getting the kids to school and home safely. Kids – do not forget to thank the crossing guards.

Is Obama fundraising for Democrat Quinn? Yes, I think he is fundraising for the Democratic Seat belt enforcement?

When people do not wear Party, but his name is not Quinn. seat belts they are putting only themselves at greater risk. I Railroad crossing is think the police should crack in need of repairs down on cellphone/hands-free I am not sure under whose use – that problem not only puts jurisdiction the railroad the individual breaking the law crossing for the Belt Line at at risk but others as well.

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.

Gridiron Alumni looking for former football players to lace up their cleats

By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com OAK BROOK – It’s game day, and Chris Hall is distributing shoulder pads to a group of men who thought their pigskin days were over.

“When they first start getting their gear from me, like we usually have the guys check in around 3 p.m. for a 7 p.m. game,” Hall said. “And when they first get their gear they’re like kids in a candy store.

“By the time I see them around 6 p.m., it’s all game face.”

Hall isn’t handing out equipment to children but local adults who used to play football in high school or college.

Founded in California in 2010, Hall is the president of Gridiron Alumni, a company that travels nationwide, pitting old football rivals against each other in full contact gridiron matches.

He plans to host a football game this summer in the Oak Brook area.

“We’re just giving these guys an opportunity to bring back something they lost,” he said.

football game about five years ago with old and outdated equipment, Hall – who previously worked in pharmaceuticals for 10 years – decided to start a fun, organized and safe alumni football game.

Since then, Gridiron Alumni has traveled nationwide, recruiting men to come back and play for the hometown fans.

Most participants range from 25 to 35 years old, but Gridiron Alumni welcomes people of all ages.

Gridiron Alumni is now targeting people that may want to participate in the Oak Brook event. Eager residents are sought from Westmont, Willowbrook, Downers Grove and the surrounding communities.

Gridiron Alumni not only focuses on football. Since 2010, the alumni games have raised more than $250,000 for local schools, Hall said.

WESTMONT – The Westmont Lions Club will host a canned goods fundraiser during the Red, White, & BarB-Q fest during Memorial Day Weekend at Ty Warner Park.

“The first responsibility of the Westmont Lions Club is to serve the community,” Red, White, & Bar-B-Q Competition Chairman Jim Addington said in a news release. “If we can collect donations of nonperishable items to pass on to area families, then that would be a great thing for our community

to support.”

Canned goods will be collected at the Lions Club information tent. Residents who make a donation will receive “BBQ Bucks,” which can be redeemed for purchases at the fest.

All goods will go to the People’s Resource Center.

Some of the Red, White, & Bar-B-Q cook-off competitors also will donate their extra barbecue food to families supported by the People’s Resource Center, Addington said.

ence for everyone,” she said.

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Pet Walk, Halligan said the humane society will be reflecting on past years and honoring some of the longtime donors and attendees. She even is organizing an alumni picture featuring all the pets who have come from the humane society.

“We don’t know how that’s going to go, but if it works it will be a great photo,” she said.

An abundance of entertainment will return to the June 1 walk, including Frisbee catching dogs and K-9 police dog agility demonstrations, as well as pet contests with prizes for best dressed pet, best pet tricks and a pet look-a-like category.

There will also be a petting zoo, pony rides and carnival games.

The “shopping mall” also will be back, and the Hinsdale Rotary Club will be manning the grill with sausages and hot dogs.

The 2014 Pet Walk emcee will be Hinsdale resident and ABC-7’s Judy Hsu, who Halligan said also is an avid pet lover.

The Hinsdale Humane society has set a fundraising goal of $50,000, and Halligan said it’s a “big portion” of the society’s annual operating budget.

While the event is open to all animals, Halligan said of four-legged attendees, about 95 percent are dogs, and no matter what the weather conditions, she knows they’ll be having a great time in the park.

“They act like they know the day is for them,” she said. “They just seem to kind of strut their stuff a little bit more.”

PARADE AND CEREMONY Alexander Bradley Burns American Legion Post No. 80 will host Memorial Day ceremonies on Monday, May 26, 2014. The day will begin at 8:00 a.m. with a memorial service at the post, 4000 Saratoga Avenue. From 8:30 to 9:45 a.m., the post's honor guard will visit six area cemeteries to salute fallen veterans.

GARBAGE COLLECTION Monday, May 26, is also a holiday for the Village’s garbage hauler, Republic Services. Please remember that collection will be one day later during this week and includes Saturday pickup for those whose regular collection day is Friday.

MEMORIAL DAY TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT The Downers Grove Police Department is participating in a year-long initiative that focuses on impaired driving and seat belt enforcement on specific holidays, including Memorial Day. This initiative is in partnership with the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), and is funded with an IDOT traffic grant totaling $21,000.00. As part of the Downers Grove Police Department's Memorial Day holiday emphasis, officers will be working saturation patrols that target impaired drivers and seat belt enforcement zones.

Here are some important facts to remember this Memorial Day holiday: • In an attempt to save lives and reduce injuries during the holiday, from May 19 through June 1, state and local law enforcement agencies across the country, including the Downers Grove Police Department, will be focusing on seat belt enforcement.

• In 2012, seat belts saved an estimated 12,174 lives; an additional 3,031 lives could have been saved if the occupants of vehicles involved in fatal crashes had been buckled up.

• Young people are dying at a disproportionate rate because they are not buckling up; 62% of 18 to 34 year olds killed in car crashes were not wearing their seat belts.

• The best defense against an impaired driver is a safety belt. Buckle up, every trip, every time..

4TH OF JULY PARADE Applications for the 4th of July Parade are available online at www.downers.us (click on Community Events) or by calling Mary Pratt at 630-434-5559. Applications will be accepted through June 12, 2014.

Committee suggests new regional fire service as next phase of consolidation

Suburban Life • mysuburbanlife.com • Wednesday, May 21, 2014 • SD

The latest in DuPage County’s efforts to consolidate services is now officially underway and could have long-term effects for the county’s fire departments as early as this year.

County Board member Gary Grasso presented a concept four years in the making, calling for a voluntary, regional fire organization to pool services and cut costs during the county’s Judicial and Public Safety Committee meeting May 6.

“The good news is that society and the fire departments and districts have somewhat put themselves out of business,” Grasso said. “The incidents of bad fires is very low, principally in DuPage County.

Could a catastrophe happen any day at any time? Absolutely, and we have to be prepared for that. But the day-to-day fire service is driven by (emergency medical response).”

Should the plan, or some iteration of it, be adopted by area fire chiefs, it would create a quadrant system split by Interstate 355 and Interstate 88. Each quadrant would be led by an autonomous board of fire chiefs and contain a major hospital.

The boards would work to share and streamline services, buy equipment and standardize practices as much as possible.

They, in turn, would be overseen by another executive board, which would facilitate further countywide cooperation.

Grasso pointed to the West Suburban Fire/Rescue Alliance, which includes Wheaton, Winfield, West Chicago, Carol Stream and Bloomingdale, as an example.

He said he and fellow board member and committee Chairman Grant Eckhoff had been working with local fire chiefs, firefighter’s unions and mayors to ensure their plan was as amenable to major stakeholders as possible before moving forward.

Originally, Eckhoff said, he hoped to consolidate all the fire departments under one entity but received push-

“The whole thing is driven by economics.

We’re trying to get ahead of the curve and present an opportunity for people to come together to save costs.”

Grant Eckhoff DuPage County Board Committee chairman

back on the idea.

Should the plan get full buyin, it could offset the rising cost of pensions, equipment and other expenses, Grasso said, and could even lead to the unified fire district originally sought.

“The whole thing is driven by economics,” Eckhoff said.

“We’re trying to get ahead of the curve and present an opportunity for people to come together to save costs.”

The next step of the process is sitting down with stakeholders to begin discussing the project in greater detail. Its success will only go as far as the departments are willing to take it, Grasso said.

“We’ve always taken the position from day one until today and going forward after today that this is going to be driven by the professionals and by the chiefs,” he said. “Not by the politicians, not by the mayors, not by the County Board ... this project will not be successful unless chiefs and rank and file eventually get behind it.”

Elmhurst Assistant City Manager Mike Kopp, who is the city’s former fire department chief, said there is a lot of cooperation and shared practices between entities currently but more would be better.

He asked the County Board members present Tuesday to reach out to their local fire departments to pitch the idea.

“I’ve talked to a number of fire chiefs, and it’s hard to argue the fact that we could become better fire departments,” Kopp said. “If we’re all working from the same sheet of music, it’s going to be a lot better.”

2 For 1 Pet Grooming If all the snow from the winter wasn’t enough we now have plenty of rain to remind us of what it’s like to live in Seattle.

I shouldn’t complain because I am so glad to have our “Spring” weather finally here.

I was looking for a little bit warmer temperatures but I will not be that person to complain. I have officially put away the snow shovel, I just didn’t know I was going to need my rain boots this much.

I will say this… the lawn looks awesome right.

Pure green and lush.

Here’s a question for you with all this rain how is your four legged buddy looking? A little rough from the long winter or muddy mess from all the new recent rain?

Well Do I have an Offer for You?!

We are now offering a 2 for 1 Grooming.

Yep Buy One Get One Free

This works great for you because you can use it one of two ways. You can buy one groom and get one free (essentially paying half for both groomings) or you can share it with a friend.

We will book you both in and you can share the cost of the grooming (unless you’re super nice and just give the free grooming to friend).

If you are a 2 dog household you can buy one and get the second one free. Nice Huh? Here’s the fine print: you must reside within 5 miles of Belle Aire Grooming, your pets cannot be older than 8 years old and you must be a new customer to us.

If that works for you we would love to take care of your beloved pet(s).

Please give us a call and we will get your best friend looking great in no time.

In every county in Illinois, the electoral process is carried out by the county clerk’s office, with one exception – DuPage. We are the only county with an independent countywide electoral process. I’ve been critical of this structure while witnessing years of conflicts of interest, patronage appointments and massive overspending.

A conspicuous and strangely overlooked chunk of this overspending has been the bloated salaries at the top.

I’ve compiled the clerk salaries of the top 10 most populated counties in Illinois aside from DuPage; they range from $81,500 to $121,700. The average salary is $99,700. If you ask any of these county clerks what their number one responsibility is, he or she would say administering elections.

Our county clerk has nothing to do with elections, yet he receives $143,000. That’s 43 percent above the average, with the least amount of responsibility. Our election commission director makes $135,561.

The Lake County county clerk told a local newspaper, “I’ve always joked that it takes two highly-compensated men in DuPage to do what I do.”

Our county clerk was quoted in the media last year, “I’m glad I don’t have to worry about elections.”

Indeed.

If our county clerk doesn’t want the headaches and workload of the other 101 county clerks in Illinois, then he shouldn’t be paid so well. He shouldn’t be allowed to have it both ways.

This month, the DuPage County Board will be voting on the salaries of elected officials. If there is no willingness for the office of DuPage County Clerk to conduct the electoral process, then the salary should be cut in half. If the board disagrees, they must justify to taxpayers why they should pay more for the same services other counties receive for a lot less.

Half the job, half the salary.

As usual, I was amused by Peter Roskam’s less than transparent “views” on Obamacare. As was the case with his previous views on Obamacare, Mr. Roskam’s comments published May 8 were wrong or misleading.

Before May 8, it was widely reported more than 8 million Americans has enrolled and that the three major insurers, Wellpoint, Aetna and Blue Cross Blue Shield told members of congress that 85 percent to 90 percent of those that had enrolled had paid their first premium.

Mr. Roskam’s less than objective accusation that the administration had fudged the number of enrollees proved to be wrong. His less than objective accusation that the Obama administration “is hiding information (and) dissembling facts ... all in service of their own political needs” was wrong.

In fact, Mr. Roskam’s statement that only 67 percent of enrollees had paid their first premium was what was misleading. He made the statement knowing the number had not been ratified by the insurers and it did not take into account the surge of enrollees who enrolled at the end of March.

History has shown that it is Mr. Roskam and his fellow Republican members of congress that have hid information and dissembled misleading information (not facts) all in service of their political needs about the Affordable Care Act. History will show that in addition to his support for the Iraq war, huge deficient spending during the Bush presidency, deregulation of the banking industry, huge increases in corporate welfare and the unlimited deregulation of the so-called right to bear arms, his support for the malicious efforts to destroy what was the Republican’s proposed option to provide every American with affordable healthcare, is wrong.

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.

Opportunity calling

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com WESTMONT – Like most baseball coaches, DJ Cocks stresses the one-day-at-a-time approach.

It’s the same mentality which helped Westmont’s baseball team reach the 20-win mark and take home the title in the Interstate Eight Conference north division for the second straight year.

With the Sentinels starting down the playoff road today, not much changes.

“We can’t look ahead to anything but Timothy Christian,” Cocks said.

TC defeated Walther Christian Monday in a regional quarterfinal and moved on to face Westmont in a regional semifinal. The Sentinels lost 5-3 against TC earlier this season, and Cocks is hoping for another shot at the Trojans for more than one reason.

Last spring, the Sentinels were in a similar position – more than 20 wins, top seed in the regional – but the Trojans upended them 5-1 in a regional semifinal.

“We owe those guys for what they did to us last year,” Cocks said. “We have a unique opportunity to right a wrong.”

Leading up to the postseason, Cocks didn’t deviate from his one-day-at-a-time mantra but did discuss the playoffs in broad terms with his team.

“Once the road was laid out, we talked about [the playoffs], and they were excited to have the opportunity to right a wrong,” the coach said.

Westmont, which finished the regular season with a 22-7-1 record and an 11-5 conference mark, certainly has the personnel to compete for a regional title and more.

Kevin Melvin are just a few of several pitchers who have produced on the mound this year. In the batter’s box, the lineup has scored seven or more runs in a game 18 times this season.

If the Sentinels can win against TC, Lisle or IC Catholic would be the foe in the regional championship game at noon Saturday. Last spring, Lisle won the regional and went on to win state. Westmont is hoping to follow suit.

“We know we can win a regional,” Cocks said. “We talked about it, but we don’t want to get too far ahead of ourselves. This is something we could remember the rest of our lives or regret the rest of our lives.

“But as long as we go out, play to the best of our abilities and battle like we have all season, I’ll be happy with any outErica Benson - ebenson@shawmedia.com come. I’m excited about it.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

Downers Grove North Senior | Gymnastics Why Brethauer was selected: Brethauer tied for second on still rings by scoring a 9.1 in the event finals at the state meet at Hinsdale Central.

Were you expecting this going into the state meet?

No, to be honest, not really. I was just trying to make finals. That was kind of the goal from the beginning.

I came [Saturday] morning and had a bit of a rough set so I was happy to be in finals,

but I don’t think I expected to place so high.

What was your reaction when you hit the routine?

Sticking the double was just so exciting. Finishing a routine like that is just about the best feeling for a gymnast when you stick a dismount like that.

So you knew right away that was going to be a great score?

Yeah, I think so. After the second giant I knew I had a good shot, and the double was just icing on the cake.

How does this rank with your gymnastics accomplishments?

It’s been a great four years. Starting as a freshman was a great experience. I never expected starting as a freshman to be here at state finals.

The softball postseason is around the corner, and Class 3A and 4A teams across the area will be vying to make it to the state finals June 13 and 14 at the EastSide Centre in East Peoria. Here’s the outlook for Benet, Downers Grove North and Downers Grove South:

Benet Redwings

Regional: Benet Sectional: Oswego East Sectional seed: No. 1 First game: 4:30 p.m. Tuesday vs.

No. 16 Batavia/No. 17 Metea Valley Mark Busch - mbusch@shawmedia.com Outlook: Postseason opponents Downers Grove North’s Kelsey will have their hands full Gockman throws across the diawith the Redwings. Benet has mond during a May 2 home game a stacked lineup which has against Plainfield East. Gockman shown the ability to produce and the Trojans start postseason up and down the order. Five play Tuesday. players – Stephanie Abello, Rowan McGuire, Marissa Panko, Julianne Rurka and Emily York – are hitting over .450 for the year. Abello has smacked 20 home runs and has 59 RBIs. Molly Moran has handled the bulk of the pitching duties and carried a 2.09 ERA and a 16-1 record into the final regular season game.

If the Redwings can avoid an upset against Batavia or Metea Valley, Naperville North or Bolingbrook would await in the regional championship game at 11 a.m. May 31.

Downers Grove North Trojans

This Athlete of the Week is brought to you by

Regional: Neuqua Valley Sectional: Oswego East

Sectional seed: No. 3 First game: 4:30 p.m. Tuesday vs.

No. 14 West Chicago/No. 19 East Aurora Outlook: The Trojans return to

familiar ground to start the postseason, heading back to Neuqua Valley, the sight of last season’s sectional. They fell in the sectional title game last year and will be looking to emerge with the regional title this time around.

North will have an edge in the pitching circle against nearly any playoff opponent with Dale Ryndak throwing the ball. The Arizona Statebound ace has kept batters in check all season and has two no-hitters to her name.

Downers Grove South Mustangs

Regional: Downers Grove South Sectional: Oswego East Sectional seed: No. 2 First game: 4:30 p.m. Tuesday vs. No. 15 Oswego East/No. 18 Plainfield North Outlook: Starting with a double-

header sweep March 29 of defending Wisconsin state champion Wetosha, the Mustangs have been on a roll all season.

A 10-4 win Monday against Morton locked up the West Suburban Gold title for South as it improved to 11-0 in the league. Caitlyn Daly drove in three runs, and Caroline Hedgcock plated two to make a winner of pitcher Payton Buresch.

A nice balance between offense and pitching should serve the Mustangs well in the postseason. Hedgcock and Buresch have shared the pitching duties and have combined to hold opponents well under a .200 batting average.

If South advances past the first postseason game, Plainfield East or West Aurora would be the opponent in the regional championship game May 31.

THOMAS BRETHAUER

Thomas Brethauer ended his high school gymnastics career on a high note by tying for second on the still rings at the state meet. His 9.1 gave him a state medal. Next year, he will be competing in club gymnastics at the University of Illinois along with classmate Strah Sopcic. Brethauer, the Sears Appliance and Hardware Athlete of the Week, spoke with Suburban Life sports reporter Dan Santaromita about his medal-winning performance and his high school career.

Ryndak, Ali Woitovich, Katie Polaski, Emma Varsbergs, Zoe Varsbergs and Kaylee Newstrom also have provided steady offensive production.

With a win in the playoff opener, North would draw either Neuqua Valley or Wheaton Warrenville South in the regional championship game May 31.

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.

Kitchens for the Average Joe & Jane Have you put off doing your kitchen long enough? Is this the year you have vowed to do something with your cabinets?

Have the horror stories of kitchen remodeling made you afraid to even think about it? With prices approaching and surpassing $100,000 for full kitchen remodeling, it is no wonder the Average Joe and Jane feel a little overwhelmed.

Enter Kitchen Tune-Up! This locally owned (Downers Grove) National Franchise has been offering minor kitchen remodels for 19 years. Marty Ceranec, the owner, has won numerous awards from KTU for Sales, Customer Service, and Creativity.

He received the highest award in 2000 when he won National Franchise of the Year and in addition, is a two time Angies List Super Service Award Winner.

We offer Kitchen Solutions for Any Budget. “I think some people get sticker shock when they look at the price of redoing an entire kitchen and are overwhelmed. We work with clients every day who have the same anxieties,” says Marty.

KTU can provide anything from the Signature Kitchen Tune-Up to a full blown design and remodel. “The bulk of our work last year was in refacing and door replacement.

Door replacement doesn’t change the color, but replaces old particle board doors with new solid raised panel doors utilizing concealed hinges. Refacing, on the other hand, enables one to change their oak cabinets to maple cabinets without

Trustpoints

It’s eight trustpoints that set us apart from ordinary remodeling service companies.

1. We guarantee our estimates.

2. We guarantee our work.

3. We arrive on time.

4. We clean the work area daily.

5. We return messages within 24 hours.

6. We strive for harmony with your daily routine.

7. We tell you what we’re going to do, before we do it.

8. We listen carefully, tell it straight and keep our promises.

buying all new cabinetry,” said Marty. “These two options also save landfill space because we are saving the boxes.”

Why have they been so successful? “I think it’s because we follow our trust points (below). Simple things like showing up on time and returning phone calls which is often lacking in the remodeling industry. I have chosen to keep the business small so I am involved in every job with my three long time installers. By doing this we have become well known as experts in minor kitchen remodeling.”

Kitchen Tune-Up also offers cabinetry upgrades such as glass doors, tipout trays, soft-closing dovetail drawers, and full extension rollouts as well as counters in laminate, solid surfaces, granite and quartz (Cambria) “The Best Counter Top Around.”

When questioned about any regrets, Marty replies, “We often get calls to update the kitchen when the owner is ready to sell.

We always wonder why they didn’t do it earlier so they could have enjoyed it sooner.”
