An ad on Craigslist caught his eye one day. It offered a $500 guarantee per week during training with the potential to earn between $38,000 and $140,000 a year in the first year. The ad was for employment at a company called Continental Toyota in the village of McCook. Andrew Yang, 24, of Crystal Lake, saw the ad too. He particularly liked the fact that they were looking for “Honest and ethical applicants only” for a job in sales. Having worked in sales before, he found the line refreshing, and he decided to register his interest. Likewise, Jeremy Armbruster, 31, of Aurora, was looking for a new line of work. A father of three, Armbruster was looking for something that would pay better than his job as a machinist in an automotive shop rebuilding engines. Like the others, Armbruster also replied to the Craigslist post seeking sales staff at Continental Toyota. He was overjoyed when he got a call back and an interview, and after, was told he had the job. He quit his mechanic position to attend a training session the next week.

A SUBURBAN LIFE SPECIAL REPORT

PAY $600 AND YOU’RE HIRED

(P.S.: YOU MIGHT NOT ACTUALLY BE HIRED)

7 MEN FORKED OVER CASH FOR TRAINING AT A SEMINAR IN McCOOK, THINKING THEY WERE GUARANTEED JOBS. 3 WERE HIRED. THE REST ARE STILL WAITING FOR THEIR MONEY BACK. after a slow financial decline. Previously, Santucci worked in commercial real estate financing and as an independent broker in Chicago. When the real estate industry fell on hard times after the collapse of the housing market, Santucci found himself borrowing against the condo he owned, and a little more than two years later, he lost it in foreclosure. “Auto sales were not big on my list of what to do,” Santucci said. But with $1,200 left in his bank account, he saw the ad promoting a sales position at Continental Toyota. He figured he’d done sales before; the product was different, but he was willing to learn. “I’d filled out a hundred ap-

According to Santucci, he interviewed with Taylor for about 15 minutes on July 16 and had a nice conversation. Like the others, Taylor told him he was hired. He was to come in for training the next day. Of the seven applicants who went through the training session, all reported similar meetings.

Cash or cashiers check only Nine men showed up at Continental Mitsubishi in Countryside on the first day of training. They were told they would receive 20 hours of training in selling cars by Taylor and a manual titled, “The World’s Best Automotive Sales Training Manual.” Taylor told the trainees

that he had an office down the street at Continental Toyota and was a general manager of a Continental business. According to the men in the training session, it wouldn’t be the last time Taylor led them to believe he had a long history with the Continental dealerships. Despite repeated requests for Taylor to comment, he did not return calls for this story. Representatives of UCS declined to comment on the story or to confirm or deny Taylor’s employment with UCS. All the men said they believed him – the training was being held at Continental Mitsubishi and the posted job listing only listed the Continental name. However, according to the majority of the men who went through Taylor’s training session, their training in auto sales took up very little of that time. “We probably got no more than 12 hours with him,” Santucci said. A lot of that time, they said, was spent by Taylor telling stories about his success in the auto sales industry and about matters unrelated to the training. In interviews with Suburban Life, five of seven trainees reported that they got nothing out of the session. At the end of the first day, Taylor told the men they would need to bring $600 in cash or a cashier’s check for that amount the following day to continue. They were promised it would be refunded, plus another $29, after they had been employed in good standing for 90 days. The men believed they were already guaranteed jobs – Taylor had told them as much, they said – and they would start receiving $500 a week during additional training the following week after they had been placed at a dealership. The next day, two men had not returned. The rest each paid their $600. “I had a feeling that I was being scammed, but at that point I was desperate for a job and would do anything,” said Hernandez, the college student. His family had recently told him they would not be able to pay for his college tuition the following semester,

THE PLAYERS UCS Inc. A company that, according to its website, ucsautoinc.com, is “the largest and #1 sales-training & recruiting company for the Automotive, Marine, RV, and Motorcycle industries–in the World.” Among the selling points on the website: “Our policy of charging only the sales candidate and not the dealership has many clear and consistent advantages to the sponsoring dealership” Tom Taylor Consultant who ran a multi-day training session at Continental Mitsubishi. According to several trainees, Taylor presented himself as an employee of Continental. Continental Toyota Auto dealership in McCook that agreed to the training sessions run by Taylor. General Manager Dennis Pecho later said the dealership would not be interested in dealing with UCS again. The trainees Jeremy Armbruster; Alex Hernandez; Carl Jensen; Ishmael Rodriguez; Dan Santucci; Mike Timmons; Andrew Yang: The seven men who completed Tom Taylor’s training and paid $600 each, thinking they were guaranteed jobs.

scam. Some of the trainees, including Hernandez, disagree. Hernandez said he has filed a claim in small claims court against Continental Toyota to try to get his $600 back. He has a court date pending for Oct. 29. According to Pecho, Continental never got a dime of the money the men paid to Taylor, including funds from a trainee who paid with a cashier’s check made out to Continental Toyota. According to Pecho, they never received that. “Every one of us in there were unemployed and were told we’d have a check for $500 in two weeks. Everyone in that room was counting on that,” Santucci said. Santucci said he knows Continental didn’t take his money, but he still holds them responsible. He believes they should have done their homework before agreeing to work with UCS. Pecho said he wishes he had done more screening beforehand. “This went badly, there’s no doubt,” Pecho said. “But we did hire people. They have jobs. We don’t see where we did anything wrong.” Pecho said that making the trainees pay for their own training – even after being “hired” – didn’t sound that unusual to him. He said employees sometimes pay for business or motivational seminars to keep up with the industry, Pecho said. Continental covers the costs for employees to attend supplemental training for the brands they carry. That said, Pecho said he wouldn’t dream of working with UCS again. They even called him recently and told him they could send someone other than Taylor next time. Pecho said he asked to talk to the owner before he would consider it and was told that wouldn’t be possible. Pecho said he’s made calls to other dealerships warning them about working with the company. In the end, none of the men got their $600 back, a financial hit for all of them. “I had money set away to send [his daughter] to her nationals dance competition. I thought I could use that and then pay it back before,” Armbruster said. “It was money I wasn’t supposed to touch. Now, I don’t have it.”

Why that has been pushed to the back of most washrooms, I don’t understand. But it seems like it’s no longer a bathroom stall for people with disabilities, it’s a bathroom stall for

people with families and children in tow, and I have to wait longer for that space while everybody goes ahead of me.

Light bulb risks Soon it will be illegal to sell any light bulb except the compact fluorescents that contain mercury. Eventally all homes will use these CFLs in all their light fixtures. When a CFL stops working, we hope that the resident will take it to

a recycling center, but today’s busy citizens could be too busy and will throw it in the trash. And when more CFLs are dropped and break, will the special cleanup procedure be followed? We know that many folks will try, but believing that the vacuum cleaner solves every problem, will eventually use it, unaware that mercury will vaporize and pass right through any vacuum’s filter and go into the home’s air to be inhaled by the family. We hope that the relatively few Americans who made out financially on contracts with Chinese factories to manufacture CFLs for us will show some remorse when thousands

of Americans develop central nervous system impairments from inhaling mercury into their lungs.

More on treaties The caller who states that Article 6 of the U.S. Constitution provides that ratified treaties become the law of the land is correct. However, that caller is incorrect in stating such law would trump the Bill of Rights. Any law, no matter how it is enacted, that violates any part of the Bill of Rights would be declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court and therefore be null and void. See Article 3, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution.

It’s Your Money By Linda Sokol Francis, E.A. THAT HEALTH INSURANCE PENALTY Starting next year, individuals who are not covered by health insurance will owe a penalty–capped at $95 a person for 2014, but due to rise later. If the penalty is not paid, the Internal Revenue Service can dock the offender’s tax refund. The IRS will not have access to any taxpayer’s medical records. Rather, the insurance companies will report who has coverage, listing names, addresses and tax ID numbers. If a company providing coverage self-insures, it will make the report. A generous schedule of subsidies will be provided to help people purchase health insurance, covering even a family of four with an income of $94,200. Minimum-income families may qualify for free coverage under Medicaid. (Uncle Sam has hired a credit reporting agency to verify incomes of those who apply.) There’s also a temporary tax on insurers ($2 per person covered this year), that’s due to rise with health-care inflation.

WESTCHESTER – The village’s outsourcing of dispatch services is set for mid-October, but residents won’t have to do anything different than dial 9-1-1 in an emergency. “It should be seamless for the residents,” Village Manager Janet Matthys said. In April, the Village Board approved the transfer of dispatch services to NORCOMM Public Safety Communications, Inc., which also services Melrose Park, Northlake, Bellwood and Franklin Park. The move will cost the village’s seven dispatchers – two of whom have already resigned – their jobs, but the village said the move was

necessary to avoid a $582,000 deficit had it kept dispatch services in-house. The village said the move would save an estimated $1.2 million over five years. Matthys said the village is still able to maintain its own operation with the five remaining dispatchers, but that it is ready to transfer services to NORCOMM at any point should any of them resign. Village President Sam Pulia said in April that it had become too expensive for the village to run its own service. “We tried to keep it in house here. We really did,” Pulia said. “This is looking like the wave of the future so to speak, as the costs of running your own operation become out of sight.”

Countryside switching to Southwest Central Dispatch In 2013, the city of Countryside made the decision to outsource our communications center. This is not unique to Countryside, as police departments and dispatch centers across the nation are realizing the benefits of consolidation in many areas of policing. The benefits are both economical, and in some instances, paramount to the safety of the officers on the street with regard to improving radio communications. The anticipated date for the actual change over is set for COMMUNITY the second week of October. VOICE The radio and data improveJoe Ford ments have all been completed and we are currently testing the new equipment. Along with this, we are training officers in the use of the new Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) software and retraining them on the use of our Records Management System (RMS) to make better use of technology. Countryside researched several different options for dispatching services and finally chose Southwest Central Dispatch, located in Palos Heights, IL. Southwest Central Dispatch began offering services in 1986 and presently dispatches for twelve police agencies and seven fire agencies covering an area of over 180 square miles in three different counties. At any given time they are staffed with up to six dispatchers and a supervisor. In the last few months, we have interviewed a large number of applicants to fill the role of our new Community Service Officer (CSO) position. We have since hired nine CSO’s who’s primary responsibilities will include the handling of walk-in customers and answering non-emergency calls for service. Of the nine hired, four CSO’s currently possess bachelor degrees while one of those is working towards their doctorate. Three others are in school working towards their bachelor degree and the remaining two have some college education. Multiple languages are spoke as well: 3 of the 9 are bilingual, which will assist in Arabic, Polish and Spanish translation. A total of five new hires also have some type of law enforcement experience. As the position grows, these roles will expand and greatly benefit our police function. The front desk will continue to be manned 24/7, including holidays. This change over will be seamless to the citizens and guests of the city of Countryside. Emergency 911 calls will be directly routed to Southwest Central and non-emergency calls will continue to come to our police station. The expansion will also add updated technology to our officers in the field, with the addition of mobile Computer Added Dispatch software.

8THUMBS UP/THUMBS DOWN Falafelji owner Bilal Beiram prepares falafel at his restaurant in Lyons Thursday September 26 2013. Beiram is opening another Falafelji restaurant in La Grange. Erica Benson – ebenson@shawmedia.com

A thumbs up to Lyon’s Falafelji owner Bilal Beiram on his recent success in business in Lyons that now is allowing him to expand his Middle Eastern restaurant to La Grange. We think the addition of Falafelji will bring something new to the downtown restaurant scene, and we’re pleased with the success of the location in Lyons as that community continues to work on developing its local business community. Beiram took a big chance when, after losing his job, he sold his home and became his own boss by opening Falafelji. We wish him success and look forward to giving it a try. A thumbs up to the La Grange Public Library for recently hosting a class for parents on the subject of “Raising Your Digital Native,” led by Devorah Heitner. Technology develops so rapidly these days, it can be hard to keep up. The issues that arise from the development of new technology can put parents in a tough spot with raising kids when it comes to balancing usage and the need for them to develop important tech skills. We thought the subject was contemporary and necessary.

The village will miss out on a $5,000 rebate after the Village Board tabled a vote on a contract to install about 500 LED street lights. The energy-saving lights are projected to save the village about $60,000 in annual energy and maintenance costs. Hoping to have the lights installed by Oct. 31 to meet the deadline for a full rebate, village staff recommended a $281,179 contract with GNP Energy to be approved Sept. 24, Village Manager Janet Matthys said. But at the last minute, another contractor, LumQuest, reduced its bid to match GNP’s. The bids involve different light fixtures – GNP would retrofit existing fixtures; LumQuest would replace them – and several board members moved to table the vote to allow more time to compare the offers. The differences are subjective and do not affect the actual lights, Matthys said. With the board’s decision to postpone a vote, the village will miss the deadline for a full rebate but still should make the February deadline for a partial rebate, Matthys said.

WESTCHESTER – Despite nudging from the Economic Development Committee, the village will not pursue the creation of a TIF district until it receives concrete interest for new developments. The village recently conducted a feasibility study that identified five potential TIF districts, which help local governments improve infrastructure and attract businesses. Since the study, the Economic Development Committee has debated which areas to pursue and now wants to talk to the Village Board about applying for a TIF district. But without interest from developers, village staff will not spend the $30,000 to $50,000 it can cost to develop a TIF district, Village Manager Janet Matthys said. “We want to be cautious and not spend money on something where there’s not going to be any result for 10 to 15 years,” she said. TIF districts depend on growth in property values to produce a benefit for municipalities. When districts are established but fail to attract enough businesses, the effect can be detrimental. “You don’t get anything back from [establishing the TIF

district] yet you’ve incurred all the upfront costs for developing it,” Matthys said. “We’re trying to avoid that pitfall.”

She was born in Chicago, to Sophie and William Cottrell, grew up in Lisle and Hinsdale Illinois, and later moved to Florida for retirement. When eventually settling in Sun City Center, she was able to enjoy regular golfing and travel throughout much of the world with her husband. Her brilliant mind and the pursuit of ever-increasing knowledge achieved the award of salutatorian when graduating Hinsdale High School in 1943. Gregg Business College then led her into work at the New York Central Railroad and the National Safety Council. Along with the years of family-raising, she operated her own successful real estate company in LaGrange, Illinois for 24 years, assisted by her husband. Jean's great abilities were showcased in publications for several years of Who's Who of American Women, Who's Who in Finance and Industry, and Who's Who in The Midwest. Genealogy also fascinated her, and she traveled throughout this country in search of all the intimate details of her ancestors. A giant volume containing her work was published and given to the Library of Congress, as well as many local libraries where many past relatives had lived. It was found that one early Cottrell ancestor immigrated before the Revolution, so Jean became a member of the DAR. In later years, a number of mystery and science fiction stories she wrote were published in various magazines. They often used personal events from her life cleverly woven into the adventures. The family would like to thank all the dear friends who gave support to her during the past months, especially, Pastor Mark and Dee Salmon, and her dedicated caregivers. A memorial service is scheduled at 11:00 AM on October 19, 2013 at the Saint Andrew Presbyterian Church, Sun City Center, Florida. It is requested that in lieu of flowers, donations to individual charities be offered.

IN MEMORIAM VIRGINIA (JEAN) R. PENCE

JULIA A. KAREIVA June 8, 1925 - October 6, 2012

July 12, 1925 - September 18, 2013 Jean was lovingly called by the Lord and given His peace following a stroke at home. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Bob, and survived by her daughter, Marjorie Tuinstra, son, Bob Pence, brother, Bill Cottrell, five grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren.

Remembering you is easy, we do it every day, missing you is the hardest part as it never goes away. To hear your voice, to see your smile, to sit with you and talk for a while would be our greatest wish. Today, tomorrow, our whole life through, we love you and miss you. Bill and Sharon

Restaurant reviews

Great Mediterranean food at Greek Islands LOMBARD – My first reaction upon entering the Greek Islands restaurant on a recent rainy, chilly evening was, “Wow, this place is popular.” The wide, brightly lit entryway just inside the front door opened up to several friendly looking dining rooms, each three-quarters full or more. As we were led to our table, my companion and I were amazed at the number of people who chose to venture out to the restaurant on 22nd Street despite the unpleasant weather. We soon found out why. Greek Islands combines great ethnic food, the professionalism to match any chain restaurant, and the charm and attentiveness of a high-quality local eatery. My knowledge of Greek cuisine beyond gyros was limited, but my companion pointed out a few options that sounded delicious. We shared a delectable appetizer of pork skewers (the provided lemon wedges really brought out the meat’s flavor), and then spent a good 15 minutes trying to decide between all the appealing options. Greek Islands had a “Create a Combo” menu section that ultimately helped us come to a decision. I selected the moussaka (baked eggplant and ground meat casserole) and the loukaniko (sausage flavored with orange rind). My companion chose the spinach cheese pie and the dolmades – stuffed grape leaves filled with rice, ground meat and herbs. The combos were served with a potato side baked in olive oil, lemon and oregano. Everything was tasty, but we each had a favorite. The moussaka had so many layers of flavor, I could easily see myself making a full meal of it on a future visit. My companion really enjoyed the spinach cheese pie, which stuffs filo dough with spinach and feta cheese. We’d earlier seen a server

pecially, have realized how to win and how to get the job done.” With Fiedler’s quick-hitter passing game to big targets Marcell Kellum and Matt Mrazek working and with Leonard Ross breaking off big runs, it’s easy to see why the offense is averaging 29 points per game this season. The difference now is that the defense has given up just two scores in each of the past two games. “We’re just hitting our stride defensively,” Weinberg said. “We’re starting to figure out the things that we do well. We’re capitalizing a little bit on our speed. Obviously Hinsdale is a team that’s huge, big and strong, but I think trying to accentuate our speed a little bit defensively has really helped.” The Lions face Oak Park-River Forest in a tough homecoming game on Saturday. The Huskies are 5-1 and just hung with defending West Suburban Silver champ Glenbard West in a 20-14 loss. Even if LT isn’t able to beat the Huskies, more winnable games against York and ProSarah Minor - sminor@shawmedia.com viso West ahead would be enough to get the Lions in the Lyons Township junior Leonard Ross runs the ball against Hinsdale Central on Saturday.

LSL

HINSDALE – Lyons Township is following a familiar rhythm that irritates coach Kurt Weinberg. The past two years the Lions were 2-3 through five games and managed to make the playoffs at 5-4. This fall, LT again started 2-3 and needed a win at Hinsdale Central on Saturday to revitalize its playoff hopes. The Lions got it in a big way, winning 35-14 in a game they led 35-7 at halftime. LT is 9-1 in October since 2011. “I hate it with a passion,” Weinberg said of the slow starts. “Obviously, we’re proud of how we finish the season, but we’re equally disappointed at how we start it. We’ve got to get better. We’ve got to figure out what the ebb and flow of that is and fix it. Obviously we want to keep the positive finish, but we’ve just got to get better in the beginning.” Not only did the Lions pick up the crucial win, which came with the added bonus of doing it on the home field of their rivals on their homecoming, but they practically had the game won before halftime. A touchdown pass from Tommy Fiedler to Connor Pavletic with 27 seconds left in the first half gave LT a 35-7 lead at the half. After Fiedler threw an interception on the first play of the game and Hinsdale scored on the ensuing drive, it was all LT. “We were firing on most of our cylinders,” Fiedler said. “I think we just realized that this is the time. We can’t wait any longer. We’ve had a habit of coming off in a slow start to the season and then finishing strong. I think the young guys, the juniors es-

Nazareth Academy running back Daniel Bakovich evades a tackle in the Roadrunners’ homecoming win against Notre Dame on Saturday.

Nazareth 10 Notre Dame 7 Naz rushing leaders • Ivory Kelly-Martin 10 carries, 105 yards, TD • Cyle Tucker 11 carries, 75 yards • Julian Love 15 carries, 53 yards and lightning came with 2:14 left and forced an 80-minute delay. When the teams returned to the field, Naz needed to convert a third-and-6 to keep the drive going; Kelly-Martin ran for 6 yards on

fourth-and-2 to seal the game. “It was a perfect game for us,” the freshman said. “Our defense was amazing out there. Our line was blocking like crazy. The final two minutes we pushed them. It was a great game.” The star of the day was the Roadrunner defense, which limited a Notre Dame offense that hadn’t scored less than 20 points yet this season. Dons’ running back Chris James, who has over a dozen Division I offers, couldn’t get in the end zone. “We had a spy on him,

but we knew we had to pay attention to the other playmakers they have as well,” Racki said. “We threw a lot at them defensively with a lot of young kids.” Nazareth hosts another undefeated team, Benet, on Saturday but only needs to beat winless Riverside Brookfield and 2-4 Marian Catholic to clinch a playoff spot. “I’m pretty sure we’re going to make the playoffs this year,” Kelly-Martin said. “That’s what our goal is so far.”

Fenwick rolls, clinches playoff spot SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

Fenwick’s football team clinched a playoff spot with a sixth straight win to start the season. The Friars led 40-0 at halftime and cruised in the second half against Gordon Tech (2-4). Senior quarterback Gino Cavalieri passed for three touchdowns and helped the Friar offense score on its first five possessions. Ryan Smith caught two of those touchdowns and

By DAN SANTAROMITA LA GRANGE PARK – Two weeks ago, Nazareth hit the low point of the season in a 42-point loss on its home field to an undefeated Joliet Catholic team. They made sure not to repeat that feeling against another undefeated team Saturday. The Roadrunners won a grind-it-out game 10-7 against Notre Dame in a rainsoaked homecoming game to improve to 4-2 overall and vastly improve their playoff chances. “Huge win, especially after two weeks ago today on this field it was pretty devastating,” said Naz coach Tim Racki. “It was as low as you can get. The rebound win at Carmel, which we’ve never done, was big but I told the guys we haven’t beat a team with a winning record so beating an undefeated Notre Dame team who is very physical is a big confidence boost for these kids.” Freshman running back Ivory Kelly-Martin scored on a 25-yard touchdown run to break a scoreless tie in the third quarter. The Roadrunners (2-2 in the East Suburban Catholic Conference) led 10-0 before the Dons (5-1, 2-1 ESCC) converted a fumble into a 1-yard touchdown run with 7:12 remaining in the game. Nazareth attempted to run out the clock with a long drive built exclusively on running plays, but the rain

Robert Spillane scored another one on the ground. Fenwick faces its toughest remaining game on Saturday, when it hosts homecoming against Catholic League Blue opponent Providence Catholic.

York 27, Proviso West 20 The Dukes got the best of the Panthers in a battle of winless West Suburban Silver teams. York took a 6-0 lead into halftime

on a pair of field goals and led 20-0 entering the fourth quarter before the Panthers mounted a late rally. Chance Haney scored one touchdown on the ground to cut the lead to 20-6. York scored again before Denzel Tolliver and Julian Miller caught TD passes from Dennis Bryant Jr. The comeback came up just short after an onside kick attempt was covered by the Dukes in the final minute. The loss significantly dents

West’s playoff hopes. At 2-4, the Panthers will need to win out to make the postseason.

New faces making impact on gridiron By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com Every football season brings with it change as former players graduate and new names gain recognition for their exploits on the fields. From seniors having their best seasons yet to underclassmen making big impacts, these breakout players are helping their teams achieve.

Matt Mrazek School: Lyons Township Position: Wide receiver/ safety

Year: Senior Impact: Last year Matt Harris and Jemari Burks were the Lions’ top receivers and could change games. Mrazek was a safety last year, but has shifted into a full-time receiver in the absence of those playmakers and still has three interceptions on defense.

The 6-foot-4 Mrazek has four touchdown receptions.

Lewis Rogers School : Riverside Brookfield

Position: Wide receiver/defensive back Year: Senior Impact: After missing all of his junior season with an ankle injury, the track star has showed off his speed and athleticism for the Bulldogs this fall. A team captain, Rogers rarely leaves the field and is a key player on both sides of the ball. In addition to being a starter at defensive back, he has four touchdown receptions on the season.

Marlon Hester School: Morton Position: Running back Year: Senior Impact: Hester started for the Mustangs last year, but

has really stepped up his game as a senior. A strong, tough runner with an ability to get to the outside in a hurry, Hester has four touchdowns and gets the tough yards for the Morton offense. “He works hard for everything he gets,” said Morton coach Bob Organ.

Ivory Kelly-Martin School: Nazareth Position: Running back Year: Freshman Impact: Despite having a young team, Nazareth looks like a playoff team thanks to contributions from inexperienced players like Kelly-Martin. His older brother, Decxavier, is a key defensive player for the Roadrunners, but Ivory’s emergence at running back has dramatically improved a Naz offense that likes to run the ball. Despite not being a full-time starter most of the season, he has

run for back-to-back 100 yard games.

Richard Schoen School: Fenwick Position: Wide receiver Year: Senior Impact: Schoen was an all-conference pick in the Chicago Catholic League White as a defensive back last season, but is also making an impact as a wide receiver this year. The senior from Riverside has 15 receptions for 340 yards and two touchdowns on offense, four interceptions on defense and also takes return duties for Fenwick.

Ryan Swift School: Riverside Brookfield

Position: Sophomore Year: Quarterback Impact: Swift began the season as a player who coach Brendan Curtin had to find a

spot for because he was a good athlete and football player. Senior quarterback Jack VandeMerkt has been banged up since the middle of the third game of the season, and since then Swift has taken over as the starter and filled in admirably. He has three touchdowns through the air and another rushing since taking over at quarterback.

Marcell Kellum School: Lyons Township Position: Wide receiver Year: Senior Impact: Kellum has shown great improvement within the season, going for over 100 yards receiving and a touchdown in each of the past two games. On the season he has 27 receptions for 436 yards to lead the team in both categories. The senior has also caught three touchdowns.

Bears should win, but can’t take Giants lightly Hub Arkush

Anyone who thinks the 0-5 New York Giants can’t come into Soldier Field Thursday night and knock off the 3-2 Bears knows absolutely nothing about football. There are more than 20 players on this Giants team with Super Bowl rings they won together just two seasons ago, and a handful of them have won a pair of rings together. One of those two-time world champions is the quarterback, Eli Manning, who also is a two-time Super Bowl MVP. That’s one more of each than his more famous older brother, Peyton. With a supporting cast that includes All Pros Victor Cruz, Chris Snee, Justin Tuck, Jason Pierre-Paul, Antrel Rolle and a number of other near Pro Bowlers, Manning and com-

pany can beat anybody on any day if they show up and play their game. The good news for Bears fans is the Giants haven’t shown up yet this year, and nothing’s happened in the past few weeks to suggest they will for the Bears. A huge part of the Giants problems this year is Manning is having his worst year as a pro, completing just 53.7 percent of his passes. He’s also thrown 12 interceptions versus just eight touchdowns. Much of that is due to the fact that Manning’s been dodging bullets all season long. He already has been sacked 15 times. Another huge problem for Manning and the Giants has been the almost complete lack of a running game. The Giants rank 32nd, dead last in the league, on the ground. Their No. 1 back, David Wilson, who has just 146 rushing yards on 44 carries for a 3.3 average and one touchdown on the season, left Sunday’s Eagles game with a neck injury and is unlikely to be available.

If Wilson can’t go, the running game will be in the hands of veteran Brandon Jacobs, who was on the street just a couple of weeks ago. One area where the Giants can hurt the Bears, and where the Bears have been vulnerable, is with an extremely talented stable of receivers. Cruz and Hakeem Nicks are both No. 1 receivers, and Reuben Randle was drafted by the Giants last year out of LSU in the second round a little more than a dozen spots after the Bears tabbed Alshon Jeffery. Brandon Myers is the tight end the Giants wanted more than Martellus Bennett, signing him as a free agent from the Raiders and allowing Bennett to move on. Like Wilson though, Myers is battling injury, a bum ankle, and may or may not be available. The Giants offensive line has been awful this year. With the Bears struggling on the defensive line, this could be the key matchup of the game. Defensively, the Giants are as talented as any team in the league

but have struggled all season long to produce. Tuck, Pierre-Paul and Mathias Kiwanuka form as feared a pass rush trio as you’ll find in the league, but they’re dead last in sacks. The Giants were struggling so badly at linebacker with Spencer Paysinger and Keith Rivers outside and Mark Herzlich in the middle that they just traded for Jon Beason. Cornerbacks Corey Webster and Prince Amukamara, and safety Rolle were playing in the Super Bowl 18 months ago, and this year are joined by safety Ryan Mundy. If Wilson is unable to go, the Giants also will be without their kickoff returner. Randle has been mediocre at best returning punts with a 6.3 average. Unless the Giants make a miraculous turnaround, this is a game the Bears should win. But take them lightly and wake the sleeping giants, and this team has more than enough talent to really ruin your night.

veloping a friendship with one another,” Bostic said. “He knows when I’m out there, there may be one thing I may not remember and he remembers. … You start to learn how each other is and helping our game because we’re growing together.” They understand the linebacker importance of the position in Chicago, but avoid thinking about the fact that they’re next. “We never think about that. We definitely don’t talk about it,” Greene said. “Knowing this team in particular is traditionally known for having great linebackers. With us being young guys and being draft picks, everybody might see us going into that role in the future. “Right now, all we can worry about is knowing our assignments in case somebody goes down and knowing spe-

cial teams inside and out. … We both know that there’s a tradition of great linebackers playing here, it’s a privilege for us to be here. It’s special.” The future almost came sooner for Bostic, who started at middle linebacker throughout the preseason, but now cameras don’t swarm him after practice, something he said he doesn’t notice. “One thing I really learned about (Bostic) is that he’s down to earth, a humble dude,” Greene said. “Some guys get drafted high and some guys get a little of the spotlight. When he tells you that (the media) doesn’t bother him, none of those things really bother him. … It’s good to see how guys can be humble in success.” Bostic has noticed a similar quality about Greene during their extensive time together.

“You see most guys, if they win some of the awards he won, Defensive Player of the Year for the Big East two years in a row, their head is up here,” Bostic said, pointing to the sky. “For [Greene] to come in and still work like he’s a guy trying to make the team, it blows my mind sometimes.” They don’t know everything about each other, though. When Greene joked that hundreds of his Twitter followers tweet at him asking to get Bostic on Twitter, the second-round pick interrupted. “I just got on yesterday,” he said. “I didn’t even know he was on!” Greene responded. Maybe Twitter will be Sunday’s topic of conversation when the Bears’ linebackers in waiting take their pregame lap.

Jon Bostic and Khaseem Greene entered the NFL together at the same position with the same team. They take extra reps after practice together and, on gamedays, they take a lap around the field a couple hours before kickoff. “I think it was before the preseason game, I saw him taking a lap. I’m like ‘all right, let me add that to my [routine],’ so I started running with him and next thing we know, we do it every game,” Greene said. From when they were drafted through the preseason, Bostic and Greene – especially Bostic – received plenty of media attention and then playing time. Since the season has started, though, neither has played

a single defensive snap, and they’re keeping each other company as the future Bears linebackers. “It’s pretty simple. We both came in as rookies, came in as linebackers. We pretty much just do everything together,” Greene said. The two first met at the scouting combine in Indianapolis and roomed together in a hotel when first arriving in Chicago. In the preseason opener, Bostic returned an interception for a touchdown and Greene led the team with five tackles, including one for a loss. They exploded on the scene in August, but don’t have to rush their development in the fall with veterans D.J. Williams and James Anderson ahead of them, so they can learn the ropes together. “We hang out a lot. It helps us with football as well as de-

Riverside-Brookfield’s Ljuboja picks Brown for basketball SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA RIVERSIDE – Over the weekend, former Riverside Brookfield basketball star Miki Ljuboja committed to play at

Brown University next year. Ljuboja also had offers from Yale, Dartmouth, Holy Cross, Hartford, Marist and Chicago State. After graduating from RB in

2013, Ljuboja chose to go to prep school instead of going straight to a four-year college. Because he skipped a grade earlier in his school career he was a year younger than his classmates at

RB and wanted to get back on the normal track by spending a year at Phillips Exeter in New Hampshire, where he is currently attending school. Last season Ljuboja aver-

aged 18.1 points per game, nine rebounds and 1.8 blocks for the Bulldogs. The Bears went 13-15 last year and last made the NCAA Tournament in 1986.

Sketch the sails using the basic shapes as guides:

hristopher Columbus was a brave explorer who crossed the ocean in 1492 looking for a new world. Each year, we celebrate Columbus Day to remember the man who was one of the irst Europeans to explore the Americas. Columbus sailed from Spain to Hispaniola, which is now the Dominican Republic, with three boats –the Niña, the

Pinta and the Santa Maria. On the way over, Columbus and his crew battled many hardships, from storms and shipwrecks to diseases. But when they arrived in the Americas, they discovered a land that was more beautiful than they could have imagined, and one that was already inhabited by the Taino people, who had lived there for centuries. Take a look at the map below, and follow Columbus’ boats as they make the treacherous journey across the ocean.

Set sail with Columbus first, draw a line that follows Columbus’ ships as they sailed across the ocean from Spain. next, label each of the following names on their appropriate location on the map. If you need help, ﬁnd a world map to use as a reference. Have fun curving the lines like a real sailing ship:

you’ve got the life

With Halloween and other holiday parties coming up, now is a good time to decide what you’ll be serving your guests. Everyone loves dessert, so mini treats — especially cupcakes — can be a great addition to a party or other celebration, such as a birthday or anniversary. Farozan Jivraj, an experienced pastry chef and owner of Cupcake Novelties cake boutique in Winchester, Va., offers some tips on how to get a gourmet look (and taste) at home: Start with a basic recipe:“If someone is looking to make cupcakes the easy way, they can start from a basic vanilla cupcake recipe and add flavors to the frosting to jazz it up,” Jivraj says. “Various extracts are also available and can be added to a vanilla cupcake recipe to vary the flavor palate.” improve a box mix: If you’d rather go the box mix route than make cupcakes from scratch, Jivraj recommends using butter instead of oil for a richer taste, adding a box of instant pudding to improve cake density and substituting flavored juice, milk or buttermilk for water for a flavor kick. make your own frosting: “It is easy to make and tastes much better than storebought icings,” Jivraj says. Try a simple swirl of icing with themed decorations to make your cakes stand out. Don’t forget to decorate: If you aren’t the best at piping or using fondant, candy comes in handy. “Fruit roll-ups are flexible and pliable enough to be shaped easily. Sixlets, M&Ms, Tootsie Rolls and licorice can all be used to create different elements of decoration,” Jivraj says. Want a mix of different desserts? Make Rice Krispie Treats, chocolate-dipped marshmallows, caramel chocolate popcorn or chocolate-dipped graham crackers topped with sprinkles.

5 new ways to enjoy this traditional, tangy drink

By Saimi Bergmann More Content Now

We look forward to it all year — the sweet tang of apple cider from local orchards. Cider is satisfying cold, straight from the jug. It’s comforting hot, laced with cinnamon, sipped from a mug. And it’s kid-friendly when combined with yogurt in a smoothie. But don’t stop there. A little experimenting led us to five more ways to enjoy this autumnal specialty.

1. Fall fondue Cheese and apples have long been a natural pairing. Could they be combined? Yes. I added the crisp, fruity notes of cider to the mellow, aged flavors of cheese to create a fall fondue. Just bring cider to a simmer, slowly add shredded cheeses, and finish with a splash of vinegar and swirl of brandy. Integrated, yet distinct flavors compete for attention with each dip into the fondue pot.

Cheese And Cider Fondue n n n n n

1 cup cider 4 cups grated cheese* 1 1/2 T cornstarch 2 t apple cider vinegar 1 T apple schnapps or apple brandy Put grated cheese and cornstarch in bowl. Toss to coat cheese. Bring cider to a simmer over medium heat. Add cheese a handful at a time, stirring until melted between additions. Continue cooking until fondue just starts to bubble, 3 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Add vinegar and stir. Take fondue off heat and stir in brandy. Pour into fondue pot and keep warm. Serve with cooked slices of kielbasa or other spicy sausage, bread cubes or crostini, broccoli florets or slices of tart apple. *Most recipes call for Gruyere, but $18 a pound seemed a little steep. We substituted half Swiss and half sharp cheddar.

— Adapted from a recipe at www.bonappetit.com

2. Move over, maple This one rates a rave. Cider syrup is a luscious drizzle for both sweet and savory dishes. It is equally at home drizzled on pancakes or over roasted pork. It’s so easy, you can make a batch on a weeknight to dress up baked acorn squash, then used the leftovers the next

morning on your oatmeal. Don’t be tempted to omit the lemon juice. Without its contrasting tartness, the syrup has a cloying single-note sweetness.

Cider Syrup n n n n

1/4 cup sugar 2 t cornstarch 2/3 cup apple cider or juice 1 cinnamon stick (1-1/2 inches) n Dash ground nutmeg n 2 t fresh lemon juice n 1 T butter In a small saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch and cider until smooth. Add cinnamon stick, then bring to a boil, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes. Mixture will thicken. Remove from heat and stir in nutmeg and butter until smooth.

3. Serve a cider-tini Cider serves as the anchor for a sweet, buttery martini, served in a glass rimmed with cinnamon sugar. The proportions of the three ingredients — cider, vodka and butterscotch schnapps — can be altered to suit individual tastes. Although some recipes call for equal parts, I found the schnapps tended to dominate. My favorite variation used 4 parts cider to 2 parts vodka to 1 part schnapps.

4. Tame the cranberry Most cranberry sauce and relish recipes call for an appalling

cider is equally delicious served hot with cloves and a cinnamon stick, icy cold in a martini or mixed with yogurt for a creamy smoothie. The smoothie mixture can be frozen for a nutritious popsicle. STAN MyERS/MoRE CoNTENT NoW

amount of sugar. You can reduce that amount if you substitute apple cider for the water.

Cider-Cranberry Sauce

n 1 cup cider n 1/2 to 3/4 cup sugar n 12-ounce package fresh cran-

berries Simmer all ingredients in a sauce pan until cranberries pop open, stirring frequently.

5. Beginner coffee cake Starting with a boxed mix calms the fears of the most novice of bakers. But with a little “doctoring,” nobody will ever suspect that this apple coffeecake wasn’t made from scratch. You can turn a boxed cinnamon quick bread into a fall favorite with two easy additions. For the batter, follow package directions but substitute cider for the water. I tried this idea while experimenting with cider for other recipes, but thought the result still needed a boost of apple

flavor. So, when the package directions said to pour half the batter in a pan and sprinkle on cinnamon sugar, I added a layer of finely chopped apple, poured the rest of the batter on top, as directed, and success! The apple added moisture and a needed tartness to the sweet filling. Perfect for brunch or even dessert.

Apple Cinnamon Coffee Cake n n n n n n

2 eggs 3 T oil 3/4 cup cider 1 box cinnamon quick bread 3/4 cup cider 1 medium-sized tart apple, peeled and finely chopped Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease or spray a loaf pan. Put eggs in large bowl, whisk until blended. Add oil and cider, beat again. Add cake mix and stir until most lumps are gone. Pour about half the batter into the greased pan. Sprinkle on about 2/3 of the cinnamon sugar provided with the mix. Add the chopped apple in an even layer. Pour the rest of the batter on top, carefully smoothing with a spoon to cover the filling. Sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon topping on top. Bake for about 45 minutes. Baking times will vary depending on the type of pan you use.

The mother and son team make up Higgins Glass Studio, 33 E. Quincy, entrusted to the Wimmers to carry on the art crafted by their long time mentors, Fran and Michael Higgins, who began the company in 1948. Louise and Jonathan agree that it was Fran’s ideas and Michael’s energy and ingenuity that led these two huge talents to start their work out if their Chicago apartment in 1948. Over the years their art sold in such major retailers as Marshall Field’s, Georg Jensen and Bullocks Wilshire, the very high end store in the California based department store chain. In 1966, the Higgins decided to return to private studio work and set up their offices in Riverside. The website notes that “here they were free to set their own goals, meet their own standards and design in the direction their hearts and minds led them.” There’s a lot of history in Higgins, and the Wimmers are proud of their work and the company.
