They asked, instead, that the calls be limited to absolute necessity, rather than calling the attorney when they had gotten an “answer they did not like.” Other members of the board argued that they have the right to contact the attorney for clarification on any issue, regardless of the cost, and that the calls made had not been excessive. The motion failed, meaning there were not enough votes to enforce the

B’view To Get Web Site OK With Chamber By MICHELE BEATTIE

A resolution introduced by Building and Zoning Trustee Claudette Struzik at the Nov. 15 meeting of the Bridgeview Village Board gained approval for a Web site licensing agreement between the village and the Bridgeview Chamber of Commerce. The resolution allows the Village to add information beneficial to the citizens of Bridgeview to the Chamber of Commerce’s Web site. The Chamber’s home page domain will be www.bridgeview-il.gov/chamber. This Web site will be used to link the Chamber’s Web pages to the Web sites of commercial and industrial businesses in the Village of Bridgeview and surrounding area. The Chamber will pay the village $900 per year as a hosting fee for the license. “I think it’s a good thing that the Chamber and us work together to promote the Village of Bridgeview to businesses,” said trustee James Cecott. “This is only going to help.” Struzik then received authorization for permitted hours for canvassing activities, peddling activities and soliciting activities. Hours will be from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays, and noon to 7 p.m. Sundays. Finance Trustee Michael Pticek received approval for budget Corporate fund balance of $1,086,361. The sewer and water fund balance is $371,795.

new policy. The board also agreed to meet regarding a physical education waiver for the district. State law asks that schools require at least 100 minutes per week for gym. Currently, the schools in the district average 80 minutes for their students. The state asks that even if a full session gym class is not taking place to fill the minutes, students be given small sessions in which they can exercise healthy practices. The board hopes to have more information regarding the waiver and hearing for a later date.

Lipinski Disappointed With Supercommittee Cong. Dan Lipinski (D-3rd) issued the following statement on the failure of the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction to reach a bipartisan compromise to cut budget deficits by $1.2 trillion. “The American people are rightly disgusted with the failure of the members of the Supercommittee to meet in the middle and do the right thing for our country,” Lipinski said. “With unemployment stuck at nine percent, we

need leadership and a willingness by both sides to compromise. Instead, we get partisanship and intransigence. I’ve had enough, and I know the residents of the Third District have too, many of whom communicated their frustration with the lack of action in Washington at my Town Hall Meeting (at Brother Rice High School) on Saturday. continued on page 22

Many compliments and expressions of thanks for the Parent/Teacher Conferences were given at the most recent Oak Lawn Community High School 229 Board of Education meeting.

The board then went on to approve the consent agenda. Items included the approval of a FMLA leave request for Emily Long; the approval of the 2011 estimated tax levy; the adoption of an aggregate levy; and the approval of a proposal by Chubb to provide 92 security cameras. Athletic Director William Dwyer gave the board an update on the works of the athletics, physical and driver education and science department staff. McCurdy and Assistant Principal Jeana Naujokas then gave updates on the Drama Program and Teacher Institute Day. They both thanked everyone for their support of the Fall Musical and Little Theatre Ribbon Cutting Event. They also thanked Lauren May, Jeremey Cryan, Jamie Atkus, Dan continued on page 22

Tuition Hike Approved By MVCC Board Tuition will increase $5 per credit hour for the next three academic years, the Moraine Valley Community College Board of Trustees decided Nov. 16 at its regular meeting. Tuition and fees will be $113 per credit hour ($104 for tuition and $9 for fees) for 2012-13, $118 per credit hour in 2013-14, and $123 per credit hour in 2014-15. “This is always a difficult decision,” said Dr. Vernon Crawley, MVCC president. “We do understand the impact that this will have on students, but we have no choice. “We project that our state funding will be flat, yet our costs will continue to rise.” The board approved the increase early to help students and the college with planning. “Moraine Valley continues to be an excellent value for students seeking an associate’s degree or certificate, especially when you compare our tuition to four-year private and public colleges and universities and to proprietary institutions. Our graduates also tell us that in surveys,” Crawley said.

Think Green And Clean At Library Session

Ray Hanania Southwest News-Herald Columnist

Voters Should Toss Out Both GOP and Obama No one among the Republican presidential contenders has risen above the chaos they have caused through their extremist voices. And while that may sound good for President Barack Obama’s chances for re-election, it’s not good news for American voters. The country is in the toilet. The people have been living off of wages that have barely inched up over the past decade, while costs continue to skyrocket. The no-ending and pointless war in Iraq continues to exhaust our resources, not to mention the 5,000 Americans who have died there. And like Iraq, Afghanistan is a disaster and not even close to being a democracy — a woman and her daughter were murdered in front of the police and military headquarters recently in Afghanistan by the Taliban. Apparently, killing Osama bin Laden hasn’t changed anything one bit, except maybe satiate America’s insatiable appetite for revenge. Americans are struggling and all the rah-rah patriotism isn’t putting food on our table or making us safe in a world that continues to oppose our foreign policies. We need real leadership, not self-serving Republican demagogues nor a president who can’t seem to find his spine to do what needs to be done. Obama is a failure as a president, but he’s the best out there so far. That’s not good enough. We need someone who can lead this country out of the maelstrom we helped create with reckless foreign wars and wasting money to bail out the big bankers and investment firms helping them avoid collapse at the taxpayers’ expense. Those bankers continue to give themselves hundreds of millions in bonuses to celebrate their taxpayer funded orgies. Americans continue to scrape the bottom of the barrel, begging for jobs, and many turning to crime just to feed their families. The news media, which once championed the “little guy,” is now the protector of the powerful corporations that have gobbled them up. Members of Congress — Democrats and Republicans — are using their insider knowledge to buy up large orders of company stocks to gain instant profits in the millions. Who is that leader? I don’t know. But a good person to start with is Hillary Clinton, now Obama’s Secretary of State. I liked Bill Clinton. He was a great president. He brought prosperity to the American people, a prosperity, a great economy and a budget surplus that his less than smart successor, George W. Bush, squandered to achieve the revenge sought by his managers, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld. Clinton was no one’s patsy. He had some personal flaws — but who doesn’t? Newt Gingrich, who cheated on his own wife even during the time that he was leading the charge against Clinton during the former president’s affair with Monica Lewinski? We’re in trouble, folks. And right now pride in politics should not trump addressing our needs. Our health system is a mess, not just because of Obama’s inability to push anything through but because of the obstructionism of the Republicans. Voters need to open their eyes and put their interests first and find a new leader to rally around to save this country. Save us economically. Save us politically. And save us morally.

OUI—Oak Lawn Foreign Language Department staff members recently celebrated National French Week. Seen here are (from left) Robin Yerian, Nathan Joiner, Cathy Morrin, Natalia Venturini, Araceli Torres, Cheryl Sonna and Alexandra Wong

Students from OLCHS Are Playing Mancala Students at Oak Lawn Community High School, 9400 Southwest Highway, who study French have been playing the game Mancala. Mancala, a game played in both French and English-speaking Africa, was one of many events during National French Week, which took place Nov. 710 at the school. The traditions of French Week resonated with French music in the hallways, students playing cultural games, and the smell of freshly made crepes wafting from the Culinary Arts lab. Young French scholars even taught the staff some French; each student taught all of their classroom teachers and any willing staff members some French terms and phrases throughout the week. Students were then required to turn in a verification sheet with signatures as proof of their instruction. French students wore a “Je parle francais” button, which translates to “I speak French.” Many faculty and staff also wore “Apprenez-moi du francais!” buttons, or “Teach Me some French!” Finally, the French meal was offered in the cafeteria, which included broc-

Oak Lawn EMT Trains Eisenhower JROTC Don Mundo, an emergency medical technician for the village of Oak Lawn, recently completed CPR training for more than 100 students enrolled in the JROTC program at Eisenhower High School. Mundo, whose son is enrolled in the U.S. Marine Corps JROTC program at Eisenhower, stressed that learning CPR gives students a feeling of pride and esteem. “Now they have the power to save a life, and that’s something they can use,” said Mundo, who covered administering CPR to adults and infants, how to use an automated external defibrillator, and saving someone who’s choking. Master Sergeant James Kirkland also felt the CPR training boosted students’ esteem and confidence. “I believe it gives the kids the knowledge that they have the power now to help save a life, possibly one of their own family members, and it instills a sense of pride in knowing that they have something that not everyone has,” Kirkland said.

• Daniel Flores, 20, of 9315 S. 54th Ave., and Victoria Coria, 19, of 8341 S. Keating Ave., Chicago, were taken into custody for allegedly being in possession of cannabis at about 1:15 a.m. Nov. 16.

Lipinski Honors U.S. Vets at Ceremonies Cong. Dan Lipinski (D3rd) attended Veterans Day events on Nov. 11 in Burbank, Hickory Hills, Worth, Palos Park, Lemont and in Chicago’s Back of the Yards neighborhood. “Today we honor America’s veterans, past and present, for the countless sacrifices they have made to preserve our freedom and way of life,” said Lipinski. “Each year we set aside Nov. 11 as a day to remember our veterans and express our gratitude to them for their service. Everyone who has served

in our Armed Forces has secured a place for themselves in our history by helping to defend the American people from harm. They have paid the price for our freedom. We should remember that not just today but every day. And we should recall too that the sacrifices made by our veterans do not always end the day they return home to their families.” Lipinski reminded people who attended ceremonies that many veterans are left with emotional scars from their years of duty and have a difficult

time adjusting to civilian life. The unemployment rate for veterans since 2001 is greater than the general population as a whole, Lipinski added. “Today, it is as important as it has ever been that we live up to our obligation to each and every one of America’s 22 million veterans,” the congressman said. “I want to thank not only our veterans but everyone across the Third District and our country who took the time to attend a Veterans Day event in their community and express their gratitude to those who have served and sacrificed.”

Candlelit Vesper Services will be held every Sunday in Advent, beginning Nov. 27 at 12:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. in the Wayside Chapel at The Center, 12700 Southwest Highway, in Palos Park. The Rev. Chris Hopkins, Center pastoral director, invites all who wish to meditate upon the meaning of Christmas. On Nov. 27, the services will focus on the birth of the Christ child. On Dec. 4, services will focus on the Shepherds’ experience. On Dec. 11, services will focus on the journey of the Magi. On Dec. 18, services will focus on the birth of Jesus. The 4:30 p.m. service on Nov. 27 will feature a Christmas Cantata of sacred music by The Center Singers, led by director Penny Wills and accompanied by organist Joseph Schenk.

Giving Thanks, Taking Time for All Holidays It’s the holiday season and… Hey, wait a minute. What holiday are we talking about anyway? Thanksgiving? Well, that was on Thursday. It came will all the trimmings and the turkey. Apple pie and pumpkin pie, too. If you are like me, it is becoming a little confusing at this time of the year to figure out what holiday to celebrate. In many cases these holiday seasons linger, crossing over into one another. Blame it on Halloween. The day once dedicated to kids dressing up as witches and goblins has become a cottage cheese industry for adults as well. Parties are often held throughout the month of October. Adults who once went trick-or-treating now attend parties dressed in outlandish outfits. It is a time for everyone to let their hair down. Everyone can be a little outrageous. Nothing wrong with that. Adults can have fun at Halloween as well. But it is amazing how Halloween has changed over the years. When I was a kid, I remember my mother putting out a jack-o-lantern in the window the week of Halloween. Now we find decorations for Halloween being sold in September, just as kids are arriving back at school. Now, many homes are elaborately decorated for Halloween. This often consists of full-blown displays that include moving figures and music. Many of those homeowners are taking down their Halloween displays entering the first week of November. In some cases, the decorations are up a little longer. While driving along with my wife to an auto body repair shop near 111th and Central Avenue in Oak Lawn, I noticed some peculiar sights. Some scant Halloween decorations remained but I also noticed a Christmas tree, fully decorated and clearly visible from the first floor of an apartment or condo. This is when I sometimes have to shake my head. While other residents are putting away their Halloween collection, other families are already putting up Christmas decorations. And this was just the second week of November. I have noticed people putting up Christmas displays earlier. One reason for that is to take advantage of nicer weather. I have some neighbors who are starting to put up outside lights but will not turn them on until after Thanksgiving. And that brings us back to Thanksgiving. Everyone can share in it. It has no restrictions. It doesn’t matter what religion you practice or ethnic background you are from, Thanksgiving is for everyone. Recognizing our nation’s origins while sitting down to a hearty meal with relatives and friends is something special. Once that meal is prepared, it should be a time to relax and enjoy each other’s company. I look at Thanksgiving as a reprieve. With the extension of the Halloween marathon and Christmas right around the corner, Thanksgiving sometimes gets lost in the shuffle. Thanksgiving doesn’t come with masks. Thanksgiving does not arrive with expensive gifts. It is one day set aside for family. A truly great American holiday. I hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving. I hope many of you enjoy the following day as well. I’m not a participant in the so-called Black Friday phenomenon. I will have time for holiday shopping. I don’t need to race to department stores or retail outlets on a specific day. During these tough economic times, where some people don’t know if they are going to receive another paycheck while others may be working several parttime jobs, it is better to enjoy the moment. And if celebrating Halloween to the fullest is what makes you happy, that’s great. Just remember to set aside time for all these holidays. They are all great and equally awarding. After all, it’s the holiday season. (Joe Boyle is managing editor of the Southwest News-Herald newspapers. He may be reached at vonpub@aol.com.)

News-Herald Moves But Coverage Doesn’t Next week’s edition of the city and suburban Southwest News-Herald will not be not much different from previous weeks. However, the News-Herald will be in a new home. As reported in the Nov. 18 News-Heralds and the Center Stage column, no longer will the paper be located at 6225 S. Kedzie Ave., Chicago. The Vondrak Publishing Co. publications will now call 5639 W. 63rd St. home in Chicago’s Clearing neighborhood. It has been an interesting week to say the least. Each day we were surrounded by less and less furniture. Desks and cabinets were taken to the location further down 63rd Street. When we went to press late Tuesday afternoon (the News-Heralds were printed one day earlier than usual because of Thanksgiving), it was an eerie feeling. If only the walls could talk. We talked to many leading legislators during our years at this office, including an up-and-coming state senator from the 13th District by the name of Barack Obama. Jenny McCarthy came in for an interview soon after appearing in a Playboy centerfold. The former West Elsdon resident said in a News-Herald interview that she wanted an acting career. One week during that same fall of 1995, we were informed by our publishers that a segment from a movie will be filmed in front of our office. It seems that those responsible for looking for move sites were impressed with what was then a dentist’s office next door. The dentist’s office became a recording studio for “Wayne’s World II.” The process took about eight hours and all they were filming were doubles for Mike Myers and Dana Carvey walking into the fake studio. However, the process was fascinating. Fortunately, we did not have any breaking news stories that day. We would have never gotten out of our parking lot. Those memories come to mind after going through files and seeing photos from the movie set and McCarthy, who we took a variety of shots of at Marquette Park. Those memories will not be forgotten, but new ones are ahead. We have been at our current location for 37 years. The News-Herald was previously located at 58th and Kedzie. Of course, that move back in 1974 was a lot different. They just had to move typewriters back then. Now we have computers. That makes it a little more challenging. But as mentioned in last week’s edition, the NewsHerald coverage has not changed, nor has the phone number, fax or e-mail address. We are just in a more central location for our city and suburban newspapers. So, it will be a change. But deadlines will continue and the News-Herald will continue to cover Chicago’s Southwest Side and three suburban communities — Burbank, Bridgeview and Oak Lawn — for years to come.

We Should Be Occupied With Thanks This Holiday By SUSAN SHAER

My images of Thanksgiving and the holiday season are like a Norman Rockwell tableau: happy, smiling faces giving thanks and taking time to list the big things — health, family, security. During the holidays I feel especially thankful and proud to live in a country where few have to walk miles to get water, or pray for a midwife to come deliver a live baby. I am thankful for those things we too often forget — police and firefighters who protect us, with no graft “tipping” charge. We are so fortunate. Some say we are the richest country in the world and in the history of the planet. On the other hand, the occupy movement is drawing attention to the growing divide between rich and poor, and I despair that “he who dies with the most toys wins” will replace any other high-value legacy. Lawmakers are now struggling to find ways to achieve deficit reduction — leaving many of us wondering what will remain after Congress has picked the budget bird? All of this economic insecurity is making many of us feel downright pinched and miserly. In listening to the latest GOP presidential debates, it’s clear that in this fiscal environment, candidates are ready to pull back from foreign assistance, cut back on programs that en-

hance civil society, and even cut into the basic social safety net by waging epic battles over programs like Social Security and Medicare. At the same time, there is fearful resistance, both on the campaign trail and in Washington, to cutting back on Pentagon spending. This sort of ungracious Scrooge-like behavior might be a natural response in our current fiscal climate, but it is ineffective and unsustainable. In the longer term, this approach will make us less secure. When it comes to foreign humanitarian assistance, we should think about the strategic benefit that comes from being known as the country delivering vaccines, developing opportunities for girls to go to school, providing communities access to clean water. At this point, the U.S. budget allocates less than 1 percent of its federal spending to poverty-focused assistance for other countries. Even cutting this aid completely, as some have suggested, will have hardly an iota of effect on deficit savings — though it would have an effect on our U.S. reputation and the good will of other countries — not to mention, lives. We also need to cut back on excessive Pentagon spending and focus on strengthening our own economy. It’s really simple arithmetic. Well over

Susan Shaer

half of the spending that Congress annually appropriates goes to the Pentagon. We cannot get sufficient deficit reduction by merely cutting the arts, National Public Radio and foreign aid — it’s just not a big enough portion of our spending. Dismantling Social Security, Medicare and other programs that sustain the American way of life so that we remain armed to the hilt in the name of defending that American way of life is what my mom called “bass akwards.” There are places to cut in

the Pentagon’s budget that will help us create a sustainable national defense in the 21st century. One example is our Cold Warsize nuclear arsenal. There are other examples of wasteful contracting and procurement practices that military experts and even Republican candidates for president say need to be scrutinized. As we careen into the end-of-the-year round of holidays, we in the United States should recognize our abundance. We are so blessed. We should take opportunities to look after each other and to look outside ourselves. Let us wish for others what we have for ourselves, and in that spirit build a more secure nation and world.

Is there ginger in your refrigerator? It’s always good to have some on hand, but especially right now. Ginger is sometimes called the universal remedy because it has been used in folk medicine for many conditions. Even Western medicine is acknowledging its powers in settling indigestion and nausea; but some also tout it as anti-viral, anti-pyretic (fever fighting), good for soothing coughs and

GINGER PLUS—Hot ginger-ade is a drink with zest and punch, just right for the holiday season.

boosting circulation, which helps warm hands and feet. Sounds like just the thing to have on hand for the holidays and on through all of cold and flu season. Add zing to applesauce with fresh sliced or grated ginger. It gives fruit salad a flavor kick and livens up tomato sauce, too. Slices added to the cooking water give rice an intriguing flavor as well. I grew up drinking “gingerade,” my mother’s name for water and fresh ginger boiled together and then left to steep like tea. During the holidays, while the grown-ups relaxed over cocktails, my cousins and I had our own sparkling drink, superstrong, sweetened gingerade on the rocks, garnished with an orange slice and a naughty, neon maraschino cherry. When we were sick or simply feeling chilled, my mother served it to us in a mug, steaming hot and sweetened with honey. Today, with cocktails and mocktails the rage, I still turn gingerade into homemade soda. This lets me control the sweetness and all the other ingredients, as well. I include a cinnamon stick and star anise when infusing the ginger, but treat them as optional, if you wish. HOT GINGERADE GINGER-ADE * 1/3 cup (3 oz.) thinly sliced, fresh ginger * 1 whole star anise * 3-in. piece stick cinnamon * 11⁄2 cups cold water * Agave, maple syrup, honey or sugar* * 1 lemon, cut lengthwise into 4 wedges * To serve hot: 3 cups hot water * To serve cold: 3 cups cold seltzer or

club soda Place ginger, star anise, cinnamon and water in small saucepan. Bring water to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Cover, and set aside to steep for 30 minutes. Strain hot ginger concentrate into heatproof measuring cup. To serve hot, divide hot concentrate among 4 mugs. Add 3/4 cup hot water to each, and sweeten to taste. Add lemon wedge to squeeze into hot gingerade. To serve cold, cool ginger concentrate to room temperature. Divide among 4 tall glasses. Add 6 ice cubes to each glass, then pour in 3/4 cup club soda. Sweeten cold gingerade to taste, add lemon wedge to each glass, and serve. Unused concentrate will keep, tightly covered in refrigerator, for 3 days. * If using sugar, combine 3/ cup with 3/ cup cold 4 4 water in a small saucepan. Set the pot over mediumhigh heat and cook until the sugar dissolves, 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cool to room temperature, then use the syrup or refrigerate, tightly covered. This simple syrup keeps indefinitely.

Youth Mount Assisi Is Impressive InTheMath Event math team at Mount

COLLEGE FAIR—Maria High School junior Nicolette Ware, of Chicagoʼs Englewood neighborhood, gets a head start in mastering the college admissions process by attending a college fair that Maria recently held for juniors and seniors.

Maria Hosts College Fair For Juniors and Seniors

Assisi Academy, 13860 Main St., Lemont, placed first in the oral competition of Catholic League competition. The students demonstrated mastery in the topics of Planning, Scheduling and Linear Programming during their first math competition of the academic year. Top performers were Rebecca Wood and Mary Kate Feldner. The junior-senior relay team comprised of Sharon Desparrois, Jaimie Vayalil and Jeslyn Vayalil placed fourth in their Catholic Math League South. High Scorers included Lily Olguin: Algebra I, Lauryn White: Geometry, Gabriele Razma: Algebra II, and Clare Kelly: PreCalculus. “Our academy instituted a mini block schedule for science and algebra to best prepare our girls for college,” said Kimberly Johnson Quinn, the school president. “We are very proud of our students’ success and grateful for all the work of our faculty, especially Ms. Linda Frieh for her dedication to the Math Team.”

Juniors and seniors attending Maria High School, 6727 S. California Ave., Chicago, took part in a college fair held recently at the school. Ranging from Albion College to Western Illinois University, 73 colleges sent representatives to Maria to provide information about their schools and answer students’ questions. DeVry University was also invited to present a talk that focused on career pathways. To discover their potential educational and career paths, the

Maria students answered a personality profile and ranked their personal values. Guidance counselor Kristen Thorburn, who organized the fair, will keep in touch with all seniors as they apply to colleges to ensure the best college match-ups and financial assistance. “All of the colleges that I spoke with had such amazing things to say about our girls and said how much they enjoy coming each year,” said Thorburn. On Nov. 8, during an all-

class field trip to South Bend, Ind., seniors visited the campus of Holy Cross College. Chaperone Judy Bumbul, Maria High School Campus Minister, said Maria wanted to prepare seniors by helping them experience what a college campus in a college town is like.

O. L. Man Runs For St. Xavier moved up to More than 200 Yards No. 20 in the NAIA’s Top 25 Poll and secured one of the eight at-large spots for the NAIA national championships that were to be held Nov. 19 in Vancouver, Wash. “I am so excited for my team, because I know how hard they have worked to get to this point,” said SXU coach Lisa Ebel. “This will be the fourth time in the last five years that we have gone as a team to the national meet, so I know that our girls will be focused and ready to compete.”

One of his carries was a 10-yard scoring run that gave the Cougars (11-1) a 21-0 lead with 8:43 remaining in the first quarter. St. Xavier will play a quarterfinals’ game in the championship series tomorrow (Saturday).

On Oct. 13, the De La Salle volleyball teams hosted GCAC rival Seton Academy to celebrate Senior Night. Both matches ended in wins for De La Salle, with the result being that both the JV and varsity teams for the Meteors captured the GCAC White Division regular season titles. However, an even bigger milestone was accomplished as both schools came together to raise money for Mercy Hospital’s Women’s Comprehensive Health and Breast Cancer Center. A total of $2,100 was raised from donations, a split-the-pot raffle, raffle baskets, pledges for the players’ efforts in digs, aces, kills and blocks, a serving contest and concessions. De La Salle’s varsity volleyball senior captains, Kayla Botica, Jillian Duddleston, Arianna Hayden and Bridget White, presented a check to Sr. Sheila Lyne, RSM, president and Chief Executive Officer of Mercy Hospital. Individual donations may still be sent directly to: Mercy Hospital, c/o Women’s Comprehensive Health & Breast Cancer

Center, 2525 S. Michigan Ave., Chicago, IL 606162477. ********** In other De La Salle news, the school’s volleyball program hosted a tournament Nov. 5 for seventh- and eighth-grade teams. There were 21 teams that competed in this all day event. More than 200 girls from local Chicagoland schools participated. Among the schools participating were Byrne, Dore, Kinzie, St. Bruno and St. Richard. In the Gold Playoff Championship match, Our Lady of Guadalupe defeated Andrew Jackson Blue, 25-20; 25-18. In the Silver Playoff Championship, Robert Healy beat BCA Maroon, 25-23; 25-22. In the Bronze Playoff Championship, Dore outlasted St. Therese, 25-19; 25-14. Among those earning all-tournament honors were Madison Copploa (Byrne 8th) Karina Utreras (Dore) and Amy McCloud (St. Bruno 8th).

MVCC Men’s Basketball Preview

This Year’s Team Hopes To Dig Way Out of Cellar The slate is clean for the 2011 Moraine Valley Community College men’s basketball team. After a rocky couple of years, head coach Dedrick Shannon recruited a new class of athletes he hopes will buy into the Cyclone tradition of excellence. Among those on the roster this season will be players who graduated from three local high schools: St. Rita, Richards and Leo. Shannon, in his eighth season at the helm, didn’t return any players from

the 2010-11 squad, but did see his NJCAA All-Region IV player Louis Green and All-Conference guard Morris Woods (Argo) graduate and move on to four-year universities. There were good athletes on the team last season, but they struggled to become a cohesive unit and consistently win games. “Last year the guys didn’t buy into it. They wanted to do it their way and not my way,” said Shannon.

Queen of the Universe Church had the privilege of seeing two loved former area priests, Father John Hurley and Father Larry McNally, who were back during recent funerals. I recently made a hospital visit to Advocate Christ to see Mark Potesta and his wife, Laurie, who were in a car that was rearended by someone and pushed into a pole. They were returning from a concert in Indiana. We wish them a speedy recovery, but understand that there was also a tragedy. On the same day, I ran over to the wake of Stephen G. Piwowarczyk, who was president of Polish National Alliance Lodge 1689. I re-

member his family — Anthony and Gregory — from the days when I was vice-president of the same lodge. That was when I was still single and had lots of time. We met at Kosciuszko Hall, 48th and Wood Street (or close thereto, as I remember). I also stopped in at Modell Funeral Home because a former student of St. Casimir High School (now Our Lady of Tepeyac) was waked there, Josephine T. Kral (nee Karczewski). I also am a former graduate of this school at 22nd and South Whipple Street. Our former principal, Sister Mary Wanda, C.R., died not too long ago. We were lucky to have had several reunions, so Mary Ann Scalise, Dolores Poloncsic, Loretta Kelly and I were able to rehash old times. I had the first reunion of Room 308 at my home almost right after we had it built here, and it was great for us all to get together. I still remember one of our loving classmates, Dolores Baruch, as she was the first to die after graduation and I whisper a little prayer of thanksgiving that I had known her. I remember when Regis Philbin was in Ford City Mall at the Montgomery Ward store. I was lucky to catch him coming out the back exit and getting into the limo, and I was able to point my finger at him and say, “So you want to be a millionaire?” He was pleasant and laughed. It was shortly after his visit that Montgomery Ward closed. While we get to finish our Thanksgiving Day leftovers, let us whisper a prayer for our devoted service men and women and their families with the hope they will all soon get together again.

Winter Offering Holiday Safety Tips City’s Parking Ban Madigan Releases Guide To Alert Parents of Dangers Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan on Monday joined doctors and consumer product safety advocates at the Illinois Poison Center to issue her annual safe shopping guide detailing this year’s recalled products and unsafe consumer items. “Unfortunately, when a recall is issued, these products don’t just vanish. They wind up in people’s homes, at second-hand shops or posted online at sites like eBay or Craigslist,” Madigan said. “This guide is an easy-touse resource for parents who are already busy enough without monitoring the dizzying number of recalls and dangerous products. “I encourage everyone to use this guide as they make holiday purchases and to check their homes for dangerous products.” Joining Madigan at the Illinois Poison Center were representatives from Children’s Memorial Hospital, the Illinois Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics, Kids in Danger, Safe Kids USA and the Illinois Public Interest Research Group. The Attorney General’s

2011 Safe Shopping Guide details products that have been recalled over the past year and pose a significant danger to children. In 2011, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has issued 91 children’s product recalls, covering more than 8 million individual items that include toys, jewelry, cribs, furniture, baby gear and clothing. Risk of Button Batteries on the Rise As part of this year’s guide, Madigan alerted parents and caregivers to a growing risk to children from “button” batteries, which are increasingly found in household items and, if ingested, can cause severe and even fatal injuries. “Button” batteries are the small, silver discshaped batteries used to power a growing number of household electronics — remote controls, bathroom scales, garage door openers, handheld video games, cell phones and watches — and are often used in singing greeting cards. In many of these products, the batteries are easy

for young children to access and remove from the item. “Button batteries are a hidden threat in most of our homes. They are as small as a nickel but can cause big problems for young children,” Madigan said. “It only takes a second for a toddler to put one of these in their mouth. “Parents need to know how dangerous these batteries are so they can keep their children safe.” If ingested, a battery can lodge in a child’s throat and cause permanent damage within as little as two hours. The battery creates an electric current, causing a chemical burn that can harm the esophagus, vocal chords and the aorta. Madigan said the threat is particularly alarming because of how quickly a swallowed battery can inflict harm. Parents often arrive at an emergency room unaware of what their child has ingested, and in an X-ray, doctors and nurses say, the batteries look like other less threatening items commonly ingested by children — such as a coin.

The injury risk due to button batteries has increased two-fold: As button batteries are used to power more electronics, their presence in households has increased, and manufacturers have strengthened the power of the batteries, creating a more powerful current and increasing the burn risk if ingested. Reports indicate that from 1985 to 2007, there has been a 6.7-fold increase in the percentage of button battery ingestions. Nationally, there have been 10 deaths due to button battery ingestion since 2008. In Illinois, the Illinois Poison Center received 93 calls in 2010 related to the batteries, including 77 concerning children and teens. In 2011, there have been 80 calls to the center, 70 of which were related to children or teenagers. Most of the victims are children and infants, with studies showing that 85 percent of major injuries from swallowing a button battery affected children under age 4. Consumers may view and download the guide at Madigan’s Web site, www.illinoisattorneygeneral.gov, or request a copy in the mail by calling the Attorney General’s Recall Hotline at 1-888-4147678.

About 1,000 families in need were at the event.

Suicide Is Committed In FedEx Warehouse A gunman reportedly fired shots at a Bedford Park FedEx shipping facility on Nov. 17. The shooter, 28-year-old Benyamin Robinson of Chicago, walked into the facility yelling for his wife. Reportedly, Robinson then fired several shots

that caused employees to flee, before turning the gun on himself. No one was injured in the shooting. Police said that Robinson was found dead in a vehicle inside the facility a short time later. Police said that they received a call of a domestic

dispute around 8 a.m. Reportedly, Robinson then entered the building, yelling for his wife. The wife hid inside her office until she was evacuated by law enforcement, according to reports. Police said that the couple had been having problems. They said that the couple have three children, who were safe at another location. Dozens of employees

An evergreen wreathmaking workshop will be held at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Nov. 28 at The Log Cabin Center, 12700 Southwest Highway, Palos Park. Professional floral designer George Mitchell will help each student create a beautiful fresh balsam fir wreath, complete with pine cones and a red velvet bow, just in time for the Christmas holidays. The workshop fee is $10, plus $10 for materials. Students must bring their own pruners. Advanced registration is required. More information may be obtained by calling (708) 361-3650. fled to neighboring businesses and several law enforcement agencies helped workers out of the building. The FedEx facility has 67 full-time employees, and about 35 were present at the time, police said.

Starts Dec.Winter 1 Chicago’s Overnight Parking Ban, the seasonal parking restriction for 107 miles of the city’s most critical arterial streets, will resume beginning at 3 a.m. Thursday, Dec. 1. The ban will be enforced from Dec. 1 through April 1, between the hours of 3 a.m. to 7 a.m., regardless of snow. Drivers who ignore the overnight ban prevent these critical routes from being fully plowed and salted when it snows. During a heavy snowfall, build-ups of snow next to parked vehicles on these routes further reduces the streets capacity to handle critical traffic. Violators who ignore the ban face a $150 towing fee (minimum), a $50 ticket and a storage fee of $10 per day that increases over time. 215 motorists were towed for violating the first day of the ban last winter. And despite heavy news coverage of enforcement efforts, 127 motorists ignored the posted restrictions and were towed on the second day. The permanent signage that marks the Winter Overnight Parking Ban route is posted next to signs for the two-inch snow parking ban along 107 miles of the broader 500 mile long Snow Route System. The Snow Route System was created as a result of lessons learned from massive snow storms, including the Great Blizzard of '67. While the two-inch snow ban can technically be activated at any time of the year, this restriction is not activated often and is only a factor during the winter months. Motorists who violate it face ticketing and relocation to a nearby site. Motorists need to watch for and obey both restrictions.

Museum Cites ‘Soaring Spirit’ Award Winners

DAY OF THE DEAD—The Oak Lawn Foreign Language Department recently celebrated “Day of the Dead.” On hand were (from left, back row) Robin Yerian, Araceli Torres, Nathan Joiner, Natalia Venturini, (seated) Alexandra Wong, Cheryl Sonna and Cathy Morrin who are near the alters that students created as part of a classroom activity.

Oak Lawn HS Supercommittee Fails Celebrates We’ve reached a point deal with the deficit, ” where Washington can’t added the congressman. clear the low bar it “At difficult times in the ‘Day of Dead’ even sets for itself. This is the continued from page 1

As part of Oak Lawn Community High School’s “Day of the Dead” activities, students in the Spanish II classes honored deceased relatives, friends and pets through photographs and memorabilia on altars in the Media Center. Students, faculty and staff were also invited to share in the special project. According to teacher Araceli Torres, “Day of the Dead” (Spanish: Día de Muertos) is a Mexican holiday celebrated throughout Mexico and around the world. The holiday focuses on gatherings of family and friends to pray for and remember friends and family members who have died. Torres incorporated the holiday into her Spanish II curriculum. The World Languages Club also hosted a movie night featuring “Insidious.” Students attending the movie had the opportunity to try Mexican hot chocolate, horchata (rice water) and churros.

Advent Luncheon Will Be Held at The Center Advent is the topic of a noon luncheon program on Tuesday, Nov. 29 at The Center, 12700 Southwest Highway, Palos Park. The Rev. Chris Hopkins and program director Lois Lauer will focus on the meaning of the Advent Season with a guided Advent meditation and an opportunity to create an Advent calendar to mark the days of the Christmas season. Participants may bring examples of Advent calendars to display. The luncheon costs $15 per person, and requires advanced reservations. More information may be obtained by calling The Center at (708) 361-3650.

second time in less than a week that Congress has neglected to seize the opportunity to deal with the deficit, having previously failed to pass the Balanced Budget Amendment, which I voted for.” Lipinski added that he joined other House members in urging both sides of the aisle to seek a bipartisan effort to reduce the deficit by $4 trillion. “The failure of the Supercommittee to get to even $1.2 trillion in deficit reduction is a terrible sign,” said the congressman.” If we’re going to restore America’s economic leadership, spur economic growth, and boost job creation, we need to act to reduce the national debt before it’s too late. The federal government simply cannot continue to live beyond its means indefinitely, any more than any household or business.” The Budget Control Act that Congress passed in August provided that in the event the Supercommittee failed to agree on $1.2 trillion in deficit reduction, automatic spending cuts equal to the same amount would go into effect. This would not affect Social Security and veterans’ programs. Lipinski said the cuts were designed to be objectionable for everyone. It was done this way to force an agreement. “Congress should continue seeking to reach an agreement to reduce the deficit in a thoughtful, targeted fashion,” added Lipinski. “I remain ready to work across the aisle and support a reasonable compromise that puts our nation on a solid fiscal foundation. Washington can and must do better. “Just as we must work together to promote job creation in the short term and the long term, we must also work together to

past, Americans have come together and put aside their differences to address critical issues, making our nation stronger. If both sides refuse to come together now, both will have failed the American people.”
