ELMHURST POLICE CHARGE MAN AFTER DESTRUCTIVE DOWNTOWN CHASE PAGE 4

PAGE 3 Vol. 9 No. 47 | ED | EHP

Man charged after destructive chase in downtown Elmhurst By MARI GRIGALIUNAS mgrigaliunas@shawmedia.com ELMHURST – Elmhurst police have identified a man who struck several cars on York Street in downtown Elmhurst and assaulted an officer while fleeing from the scene of a domestic battery Tuesday, according to an email from Police Chief Michael Ruth. Anthony Joyner, 33, of the 200 block of Old Mill Court, Atlanta, Ga., is being held on $40,000 bond at DuPage County Jail. The incident began when

police received a call from a woman who said she had been stabbed by a man, later determined to be her boyfriend, Joyner, at 3:50 p.m. The woman told the 911 dispatcher he was trying to kill her and she locked herself in the bathroom Anthony o f h e r h o t e l Joyner room at Springfield Suites in the 400 block of Lake Street, Ruth said. While responding to the scene, police witnessed the

Joyner’s vehicle traveling south on York Street approaching North Avenue at a high speed. Police officers assigned to the central downtown district converged into the area and saw the suspect driving in the middle of York Street traffic which was stopped in both directions, Ruth said. The fleeing vehicle struck eight cars. The driver of one of the damaged vehicles was taken to Elmhurst Memorial Hospital by paramedics. Ruth did not have informationonthe injured driver’s condition.

After Joyner struck an unmarked police car near York and Third streets, he fled on foot, leaving his car in gear. An officer stopped the driverless vehicle before it caused more damage or injury and another officer pursued Joyner on foot across the Elmhurst City Hall parking lot, Ruth said. While trying to climb a wooden fence in the east alley of York Street, Joyner broke a board off of the fence. “He turns around, and he assaults the officer,” Ruth said. The officer was not injured, but Joyner held the 3 ½ foot board with exposed nails and threatened to strike the officer following him before he was finally taken into custody. Ongoing investigation has revealed the woman had been struck in the face by Joyner, but not stabbed as she told the police dispatcher, Ruth said. She also was

found to be in possession of numerous fictitious identification and credit cards under several names. She was charged with two counts of misdemeanor attempted possession of a fictitious driver’s license and released on an individual recognizance bond. Joyner also had several fictitious state identification cards with different names and the vehicle he was driving was rented from Savannah, Ga., under another name. Police needed to take his fingerprints to identify him. Joyner was charged with two counts of felony unlawful possession of a fraudulent driver’s license, leaving the scene of an accident and not having a valid driver’s license as well as misdemeanors for aggravated assault against a police officer, domestic battery, fleeing and eluding police and attempting to obstruct justice.

By MARI GRIGALIUNAS mgrigaliunas@shawmedia.com ELMHURST – The differences between the two Hahn Street Redevelopment finalists’ finances may not be as clear as an initial review showed. After a Committee of the Whole discussion in which the Elmhurst City Council tried to compare differences in costs and quality between the two finalists, the council agreed to continue discussions after the new year. Third Ward Alderman Michael Bram pointed out the analysis done by Kane Mc Kenna and Associates only included $1.77 million of the the city’s total $9,453,000 total property acquisition costs. “That analysis included the purchase of the Pauli property, but not the remainder of the property that was purchased while it was still in TIF I,” Mayor Steve Morley said. Assistant City Manager Mike Kopp explained that because Kane McKenna’s financial review predicts net benefits to the city for the life of TIF IV, the review only used costs associated with that TIF. He also said that adding up the cost to the city when portions of the property were purchased does not reflect the current value of the property. Morley suggested while city staff continues to evaluate the finances of each proposal that they include both the city’s total property acquisition costs and the current property value for further review. Fifth Ward Alderman Scott Levin pointed out that while the net benefits to the city show about $16,000 for Morningside’s four-story proposal, about $5 million for Morningside’s six-story proposal and about $10 million for Lincoln’s five-story proposal, that Morningside’s proposal projects much higher costs – almost $400,000 more – for items like streetscaping. Morningside also considers a much larger storm event than Lincoln’s proposal when looking at storm water management.

“We tried to make an apples to apples comparison as best we could,” Kopp said. “There was information that was given by one developer that wasn’t as clear from the other developer.” Kopp also brought up differences in the construction materials each developer included in their proposals. While he acknowledged city staff is looking at adopting a new building code (the current code is from 2003), he said staff will most likely recommend not allowing armored cable instead of conduit, CPVC for water supply, or aluminum wire for feeders instead of copper. Morningside’s proposal does include using those three materials while Lincoln’s proposal does not. “The problem with some of these numbers right now is that these are projected numbers,” Kopp said. He explained that until a developer is chosen and tries to get financing, the city will have a hard time predicting accurate costs and revenues. “What if we chose one developer and it turns out their numbers are way off?” First Ward Alderman Diane Gutenkauf asked. Robert Rychlicki, executive vice president of Kane McKenna, explained that the developers’ different approaches to the project could account for some of the large spreads between projected costs. He also said that if the city requires a developer to make changes that create a large change in the proposed costs, that could impact the developer’s ability to secure financing. “I think we have a different starting point with each developer,” First Ward Alderman Marti Deuter said. “With that said I think it would be easier for city staff and the City Council to work with a developer to get the numbers where we want them to be than to get a design to where we [want] it to be.” The City Council expects to revisit the discussion at a Committee of the Whole meeting Jan. 6 once city staff is able to gather more information from each developer.

Elmhurst Crossing’s TIF may not change

To make cancer a thing of the past, we created the cancer center of the future.

EHP

ELMHURST – In addition to presenting an annual review of the city’s four TIF districts, the TIF Joint Review Board discussed how changes to the businesses at Elmhurst Crossing could affect TIF III. “With [Dominick’s] leaving and a potential new lease holder of that space, does that release the TIF of any obligation or do obligations carry over?” asked Robert Gorsky, a member of the TIF III Joint Review Board. Mayor Steve Morley said that whomever takes the place of Dominick’s will take over the existing lease but the TIF will not be affected. Gorsky also asked how new stores like Chick-fil-A will affect the TIF. “The Chick-fil-A being added is positive,” said City Manager Jim Grabowski. “It will build more surplus into the TIF.” Because the city recently changed to a fiscal year that follows the calendar year, the next TIF Joint Review Board meeting will be an eight month review, most likely in August.

IC grad returns to support tornado victims By MARI GRIGALIUNAS mgrigaliunas@shawmedia.com ELMHURST – Santa is coming to town this weekend, but he won’t be listening to Christmas lists. He’ll be rocking out with the mission to raise money for the Washington Tornado Relief Fund. “It’ll be fun to come home,” said Dr. Thom McGorey, an IC Catholic Prep alumnus.

and the Director of Hospital Medicine at UW Health P a r t n e r s W a t e r t o w n R egional Medical Center in Watertown, Wis., McGorey felt compelled to do something for Washington when he heard about the Nov. 17 tornado. He was playing a Christmas show for a local charity a week after the tornado when he decided to go on a 25-show tour in 25 days to raise money for Washington relief. “This music only has a

four-week shelf life,” he said of the eclectic Christmas songs he’d put together for the show. His show, A Classic Rock Christmas, features Elvis Presley, John Mellencamp and Bruce Springsteen versions of popular holiday songs as well as John Denver, Amy Grant and more traditional winter favorites. Dressed in a Santa suit, McGorey’s authentic white beard and acoustic guitar set the scene for a three-hour show with a song for everyone. The Rock’n’Roll Santa has been playing guitar since college, but didn’t start playing for an audience until earlier this year. “I’ve always wanted to play in a band,” he said. After playing regular charity shows in Watertown, he first thought about dedicating his next show to the Washington Tornado Relief Fund. But he decided he wanted to do more. “A thousand homes are destroyed,” McGorey said. “A couple hundred bucks isn’t going to be enough.” He then tried to get a group of musicians together to play a larger show, but the holiday season proved too difficult to coordinate schedules. Instead, McGorey launched his solo tour Nov. 29, booking shows as far north as De Pere, Wis., and as far south as Normal, Ill. While his first handful of shows yielded him a little more than $2,000, McGorey set a goal to earn $10,000 by his final show Dec. 22. He hopes his 16th and 17th shows in his hometown of Elmhurst will help significantly. He’s chosen towns like Elmhurst, where he grew up and Normal, where he attended Illinois State University, because he has a connection to them. He hopes his long established relationships will help him reach his goal, but McGorey also said it is fun to visit familiar places. “A lot of places I get to see a lot of friends that I haven’t seen in years,” McGorey said.

ELMHURST – The residential building sewer inspections that RJN Group is conducting in south Elmhurst are more than halfway completed. During the residential building sewer inspections, RJN is looking to find how many sump pumps and downspouts are connected to the sanitary sewer. The Public Works and Buildings Committee expects a report from RJN by mid-January. RJN has inspected about 290 of the 516 targeted homes, which is about 56 percent. RJN needed to conduct dye tests at 75 homes and determined 50 of them did have inappropriate connections to the sanitary sewer. “[RJN] expected us to find

this high number,” said Gary Smith, manager of water and waste water, at Monday’s committee meeting. City staff do not yet know whether those 50 connections are sump pumps or downspouts. Smith does believe that once RJN completes testing, the engineering consultant will be able to extrapolate the data to the rest of the city. The committee has not yet decided what action it will take regarding the connections. The inspections have only been a device for gathering data, and the committee plans to wait for the RJN report before making any recommendations to the council. “At that point we’ll review where we want to go with this,” Committee Chairman Jim Kennedy said.

ELMHURST – City staff will work to develop a spreadsheet that could be used to determine the need for stormwater mitigation on new home construction lots on a case-bycase basis. Christopher B. Burke Engineering responded to a report of area home builders’ concerns at the Public Works and Buildings Committee meeting Monday. Luke Sherry presented Burke’s response to what the firm determined were the main concerns local builders had with the committee’s proposed new home construction infiltration policy, which would required new homes to provide a minimum of 750 cubic feet of storage on lots up to 10,000 square feet. Sherry agreed with a few of the builders’ points, such as leaving the garage floor out of the foundation footprint because, with rare exceptions, most homeowners do not build under the garage. He also agreed that the proposed stormwater infiltration policy has not taken into account the porous surface soil removed to install an underground stormwater infiltration tank, but explained that it only adds to the amount of necessary storage. Sherry disagreed with a few other points made by builders. A report of builder’s concerns pointed out that new homes are built on a 12-inch layer of gravel, which adds to available volume in the soil. But Sherry said when the layer is drained by two sump pumps in new construction homes, no water is being stored there. Lastly, the builders’ report asserted that no other municipalities were adopting a new home construction stormwater infiltration policy, but Sherry pointed to an existing La Grange policy, which uses a spreadsheet to calculate the necessary

stormwater storage required for a particular lot. Sherry suggested giving builders an incentive not to build deeper basements by requiring less or no stormwater storage for those new homes that build standard depth basements. Gravity drain stormwater storage was another possible solution. “I think maybe the idea La Grange has that it’s not a one size fits all might be useful to us,” said Public Works and Buildings Committee Chairman Jim Kennedy. Committee member Michael Bram questioned why Burke chose to emphasize rain gardens as a solution since they are less permanent and have a smaller capacity than other options like an underground stormwater storage tank. Sherry cited the water quality benefits and cheaper installation costs of rain gardens, but acknowledged they would most likely be used in combination with other solutions. Sherry also suggested rear yard drains be used to mitigate emergency overflow flooding, a suggestion that concerned a few residents present at the meeting. Residents argued that rear yard drains help homes when a few inches pool in the backyard, but add to the problem when they surge during storm events that overburden the city’s storm sewer. The committee also discussed a referral to suspend the current rear yard drain cost sharing program until the committee completes its review of all aspects of storm water management. Committee members Bram and Diane Gutenkauf agreed to submit a report to the council recommending suspension of the program until a later date, while Chairman Kennedy plans to submit a minority report asking the program not be suspended while the committee evaluates it.

The Illinois General Assembly last week passed legislation to reform the state’s underfunded (by some $100 billion) public employee pension system – even at the risk of a legal challenge from unions or their members. Supported by Gov. Pat Quinn, who signed the bill into law late last week, and all but one state legislator on a 10-member bipartisan pension conference committee, the reforms are estimated to save Illinois $160 million over the next 30 years and fully fund the public pension funds by 2044. Unions and their supporters insist such reforms are not just unfair, but unconstitutional. Even if such reforms lessCOMMUNITY en the impact of escalating VOICE pension costs on the state’s John R. budget, Illinois still must come Quigley to grips with how income taxes for both businesses and individuals fit into the revenue side of a fiscally balanced equation. Back in 2011, Democratic legislators – by votes of 60-57 in the House of Representatives and 30-29 in the Senate (without any Republican support) – approved a “temporary” income tax increase of 46 percent on businesses and 66 percent on individuals. The state’s flat income tax rates jumped from 5 percent to 7 percent for business and from 3 percent to 5 percent for individuals. That income tax hike is scheduled to sunset after 2014 at an estimated cost to Illinois of some $7 billion in annual revenue on a budget that typically has about $16 billion in discretionary spending after pensions ($9 billion), schools ($7 billion) and Medicaid ($15 billion). Now a special-interest group called A Better Illinois is pushing state lawmakers to put a constitutional amendment on the November 2014 ballot to abandon the flat income tax rate in favor of a graduated, or “progressive,” tax used by the federal government and most states. With a graduated rate, higher earners pay a higher percentage of their income than low-wage earners. Changing the Illinois Constitution’s flat tax rate mandate will require a three-fifths vote in the state legislature – with resolutions both in favor and in opposition already introduced in both the House and Senate – and approval by voters. The Illinois Chamber of Commerce, which endorsed the pension reform, is strongly opposed to the graduated income tax due, in part, to its potentially negative impact on small businesses operating as sole proprietors or a pass-through entity (partnerships, Sub-S corporations, LLPs, LLCs) who pay individual income tax on their business income. Since a graduated rate is forecast to generate more revenue than the flat rate, the question is: How many businesses and individuals will pay more in income taxes?

Good riddance, Mandela. The media played him up like some kind of international messiah. Fact is, he was sent to prison for criminal charges of possession of a case of hand grenades. Let’s not forget Winnie Mandela, whose organization would murder blacks if they so much as said “good afternoon” to a police officer on the street. Fact – they would get hold of them, call them informants, put rubber tires around them, fill them with gas and set them on fire. I didn’t expect the liberal media to print the truth about that. These things were documented, and many times filmed. Dig a little deeper, media.

Reindeer Route Housewalk celebrates 37 years By MARI GRIGALIUNAS mgrigaliunas@shawmedia.com ELMHURST – Groups of women and even a few men bundled up in coats and scarves and slipped off their shoes to explore six handpicked Elmhurst homes decorated by local florists for the 37th Annual Reindeer Route Housewalk on Dec. 6. “We look for a diverse, kind of an eclectic group of homes, that showcase different attributes and designs in Elmhurst,” said Ann Gunst, president of the Elmhurst Junior Unit, which organizes the event as a fundraiser for the Elmhurst Memorial Hospital Foundation. About 800 people tour homes each year, raising $25,000 and donating unwrapped toys for pediatric patients. This year the funds

Center for Cancer Care. While some of the homes have been built in the last decade, others, like a 1956 California style bi-level on Cottage Hill Avenue, have been in Elmhurst for much longer. “This home in particular has a lot of history,” Gunst said. Homeowners Mike and Donna Hennel bought the home in 1995 and have been redecorating and redesigning

it ever since. “We saw the potential of what it could be,” said Donna Hennel, who does interior designing, of the home that used to have a bomb shelter in the basement. Other homes, like a 2010 five-bedroom, four-bathroom home on Kenilworth Avenue built by Elmhurst’s Hinsbrook Construction, are nearly brand new. Elmhurst interior decora-

tor Sherry Miller, owner of Home Appeal, took pleasure in configuring rooms to make the house not just good looking, but functional for the Van Solkema family. Local florists donate their time and energy to present each home for the holiday season. Selection begins in the spring, and homeowners spend months preparing each house for the hundreds of guests that visit the first Saturday of December. “I think most people come in and get ideas of what they’re going to do with their Christmas tree,” said Tracy Musso, manager of development for the Elmhurst Memorial Hospital Foundation. For Gunst, who most enjoys the community involvement that the event fosters, the housewalk is more than just an Elmhurst tradition, it’s a family tradition. Her mother, that late Marilyn Graber, started the walk with the Elmhurst Junior Unit nearly four decades ago. “She was always so enthusiastic about doing it so carrying it on in her honor is just something that is very fulfilling,” Gunst said.

Restaurant reviews

Barone’s builds buzz with pizza prowess GLEN ELLYN – A serious craving for pizza one recent Sunday afternoon prompted us to try someplace new, Barone’s of Glen Ellyn, which turns out to be a community institution steeped in the village’s history and in the noble art of the American pie. Founded in 1971, the restaurant has two dining rooms, decorated with photos tracing the history of Glen Ellyn, with an homage to earlier identities such as Danby and Prospect Park written prettily across faux-finished walls. Warmly greeted as we were directed to our table, we were treated to one of several booths with a digital frame shuffling through a display of historic photographs, which proved great fun and a conversation kick-starter. The attractively designed space is conducive to conversation, even as the rooms began to fill shortly following the daily mid-afternoon opening. Looking for an interesting brew, my dining companion found Mama’s Little Yella Pils, which he recommends for its crisp, clean flavor, and I enjoyed a generously poured house cabernet. Cocktails are available, along with a variety of wines and craft beers. While we studied the menu, which extends to Italian dishes and other staples in addition to pizza, we enjoyed thick slices of crusty bread accompanied by a petite carafe of olive olive for dipping and a shaker of Parmesan. While good enough to be homemade, the bread turned out to be from Turano Baking Company of Berwyn. We opened with a delicious wedge salad, with ultra crisp iceberg lettuce smothered in the house bleu cheese dressing and well sprinkled with diced tomato and crunchy, flavorful bacon for zesty contrasts in texture and taste. A cross-country celebrity argument recently in the news about the merits of Chicago’s stuffed pizza vs. traditional crust was resolved peacefully

Barone’s has been a popular dining destination in Glen Ellyn since 1971.

The “small” stuffed pizza is a substantial treat for pizza lovers and will Crisp flavors set this wedge salad apart – did we mention all the basatisfy the heartiest appetite. con, plus tomato? long ago at Barone’s, which embraces thin crust, pan and stuffed pizza. Thankfully, it also offers a delicious gluten-free crust option that I tried with sausage, onions and a plentiful topping of fresh mushrooms. This alternate thin crust with its mildly tell-tale sweetness means the welcome end of deprivation for pizza lovers trying to avoid gluten. My companion went for the stuffed pie, with fresh spinach, mushroom and bacon.

“While not classic Chicago style, it’s a tasty suburban twist,” he said. And while he ordered a “small” pizza, it provided eight massive slices – and ample leftovers for lunches. The service was terrific, and we liked being able to help ourselves to water refills with a wine-bottle-cum-watercarafe as we lingered over the meal. The menu ranges from pasta and Italian specialties to barbecue ribs, burgers, soups

and salads, with gluten-free pasta also available. Off the dining rooms is a spacious entry area that accommodates pickup and delivery services, and houses a freezer case of pizza and other dishes that folks can take home to finish cooking in their own kitchen. Another case holds tempting desserts, ideal to take along if you haven’t left enough room at dinner. Also sold are package wine and beer, candy, ice cream and ices.

As we walked to its parking lot, we spotted Barone’s playroom for kids, featuring toys and video games with several rapt young people – another thoughtful touch at this venerable family restaurant.

Modernize the holiday by choosing a salmon and chartreuse color scheme over traditional red and green, mentions Canepa. “If this part of the color wheel leaves you flat, use the symbols of Christmas like candy canes, reindeer, stars, pinecones, stockings, candles and balls - but make sure they are other hues than red and green. Add white, lots of white, which adds pop.” Silver, gold and mirrored surfaces are also appropriate and modern, as are neutral colors such as white, gray and beige when combined with shiny materials. “Silver is the metallic accent that ties [this year’s holiday] colors together,” says Ann Durkin, part-time adjunct faculty professor of Interior Design at The Art Institute of Phoenix. Durkin adds that this holiday season marks a shift toward textures that express warmth through materials - such as wood, suede and burlap. “There is a strong desire for more touchable handmade or nature-made objects with a modern twist.-This can be an embroidered or knitted pillow covers, textured rugs or a burlap tree skirt.”

She advises holiday decorators to keep things simple and to showcase special pieces such as handmade ornaments. “There is no need to buy new decorations every year.-But don’t let the old decorations drive your design for the space.”-Be selective in how you will re-use them. Durkin says that updating old ornaments can be as simple as repainting them with matte silver paint and affixing silver beads with a sheer silver bow. Old ornaments may also be re-covered with fabrics such as burlap, to give an earthy hand-made appearance.-”This way you can still preserve the original look of the ornament, if it makes sense to use it again in the future. Think of it as a slip-cover for your ornament. “The overall idea is to have fun and re-use existing decorations as much as possible by reinventing them,” Durkin states. The key to this holiday season’s decorating: keeping things simple yet chic while matching your personal style. “Create a timeless ensemble which could extend beyond the holiday season and be used as the basic foundation for your interiors throughout the year,” says Durkin.

(BPT) - This year’s holiday season is taking on a decidedly modern twist, with an emphasis on recycling and repurposing old decorations, utilizing sustainable decor, and adding sparkle to complete the look. Shari Canepa, American Society of Interior Designers (ASID), member, LEED Green Associate, and a member of the interior design faculty at The Art Institute of California - San Francisco, a campus of Argosy University, says that sustainability begins with the icon of Christmas: the Christmas tree. “It can no longer be artificial or cut. Bring a potted tree into your home with the intention of planting it after Christmas in the yard. The idea is to save a tree and plant a tree, giving a gift to nature after Christmas.” Canepa recommends creating a new focal point in the public area of your home to reinforce the spirit of the season. “You can do this with a tree, wreaths, special seasonal decorative accessories or lighting. Shifting the focal point changes your psychological relationship to the room.” To design a new focal point, Canepa suggests an arrangement of various sized potted trees that can be conveniently moved. Create a mini forest of varying sizes and heights and decorate with lights and ornaments. “Supple evergreen branches wrapped around a stair banister with or without lights is also a nice addition.” To continue the sustainable trend, utilize energy-friendly LED lights around pictures, ceiling moldings, desk railings, in interior flower arrangements or on door casings. “Sophisticated or elegant interiors move toward white lights while energetic, youthful or modern themes make use of the color option. These energy saving lights make using lots of sparkle for Christmas guilt-free,” Canepa says.

| HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE

Holly and mistletoe are symbols of Christmas h, by gosh, by golly it’s time for mistletoe and holly. Tasty pheasants, Christmas presents, countrysides covered in snow.” As exemplified by this holiday hit by Henry Sanicola, Frank Sinatra and Dok Stanford, holly and mistletoe are an integral part of holiday imagery and tradition. Holly is used to adorn a home in green and red finery alongside evergreen boughs and wreaths. In addition, it has become customary to hang a bouquet of mistletoe under which people are encouraged to share a holiday kiss. While these elements of celebrations are now incorporated into many of the secular and religious components of Christmas, they have very different origins.

“O

Whether faux or fresh mistletoe, a bouquet of this plant symbolizes peace and tranquility for Christmas.

Holly

Holly has been used since the days of the early Pagans as a decoration for midwinter festivities, when it was brought into homes to keep evil spirits away. The ancient Romans also believed that holly prickles drove away evil spirits, and it held a place of honor at December festivals dedicated to the god Saturn. To avoid persecution during the Roman pagan Saturnalia festival, early Christians would participate in the tradition of hanging evil-repelling holly on their homes to appear like the masses. Eventually as the number of Christians grew, the tradition became less of a pagan one and more associated with Christians and Christmas. Some people have inferred that holly and its prickly edges is symbolic of the crown of thorns Jesus wore at his crucifixion, with the red berries representing blood.

Mistletoe

Mistletoe was once held sacred by the Norse, Celtic Druids and North American Indians. It is actually a parasitic plant that grows on a wide range of host trees. Heavy infestation can dwarf the growth and kill these trees. In cultures across pre-Christian Europe, mistletoe was seen as a representation of divine male essence (and thus romance, fertility and vitality). The plant also was thought to be a symbol of peace, and anyone standing below it should receive tokens of affection. When enemies met

beneath mistletoe, they had to lay down their weapons and observe a truce until the next day. This is how the tradition of kissing under the mistletoe likely began, and why a ball of mistletoe is now hung in homes during Christmas, a season of peace and affection. Homeowners who hang mistletoe and holly around their homes during the holiday season should be mindful of pets and youngsters around the plants. Mistletoe and holly are considered to be moderately to severely toxic, and ingesting the leaves could be dangerous. Therefore, keep these plants away from curious hands. Mistletoe is commonly hung up high, which should make it less problematic, but holly should be hung high as well. Now largely associated with Christmas celebrations, holly and mistletoe were once part of pagan rituals and ancient superstitions.

(BPT) - Cinnamon may be the world’s most popular baking spice, but all cinnamons are not created equal, and in the foodie world, Vietnamese cinnamon has emerged as the most prized of the bunch. The bunch, by the way, includes an array of cinnamons and cassias, all from evergreen trees of the Cinnamomum genus. Some are from Indonesia, others from China, Sri Lanka or Mexico. Dark reddish/brown and lushly aromatic, Vietnamese cinnamon is favored for its distinctly sweet, peppery, spicy flavor. Less tannic and more robust than its relatives, it delivers a powerful taste whether used solo - as in those gooey rolls or spirally bread - or in combo with other spices - in a curry or pumpkin pie spice blend, for example. All that potency comes from an extraordinarily high volatile oil content - the highest of all the cinnamons about 1 to 6 percent, compared with .5 to 2.5 percent in other cinnamons. The high oil content also helps the flavor disperse fully; there’s no mistaking what spice you’re dealing with when you taste a dish seasoned with Vietnamese cinnamon. Tips for using Vietnamese cinnamon: Browse any assortment of baking recipes and you’ll find cinnamon in the ingredients lists for cakes, muffins, breads, cookies, pies, bread puddings, cobblers, crisps, and pastries. It also has a special affinity for fruits, such as apples, apricots,

cherries, pears, bananas and citrus. Cinnamon’s warm flavor also shows up in plenty of savory dishes - soups, sauces, chutneys, catsup, pickles, fish, meat and poultry glazes, as well as many ethnic recipes. Its pungent sweetness also enhances grains and hearty vegetables like carrots, squash, potatoes, beets and onions. In most savory dishes, cooks prefer Vietnamese cinnamon over other cinnamons because of its ability to hold its own alongside other lively ingredients. When using Vietnamese cinnamon to spice a beverage - a hot cocoa, an eggnog, hot cider, coffee or tea - you might start by stirring it into your prepared beverage just a bit at a time. Once you nail your preferred amount, you can add it directly right into your coffeemaker basket along with your ground coffee, your mulling cider pot or your tea blend, for example. Vietnamese cinnamon also partners well with other spices like cloves, nutmeg, cardamom, ginger, allspice and black pepper. Here are a few places you might not have considered using cinnamon: * Soups, stews and chili * Peanut brittle * Popcorn seasoning * Spice rubs for meats * Grilling marinades for fruits * Rice and tapioca puddings * Chocolate cakes * Spiced nuts * Granola and muesli

Here’s a recipe that shows off the vibrant flavor of Vietnamese cinnamon: Poached Cinnamon Cheese Pears 4 large pears 3/4 cup pear juice 1 tablespoon honey 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cinnamon stick 2 tablespoons golden raisins 4 ounces softened cream cheese 1/4 teaspoon Vietnamese cinnamon powder 3 tablespoons slivered almonds Slice pears in half lengthwise and core. Place in a saucepan. In a small bowl combine juice, honey, vanilla extract, cinnamon stick and raisins; pour over the pears. Cover and simmer about half an hour, until pears are just tender. Place pears on a serving platter. Blend together cream cheese, leftover cooking liquid and cinnamon powder. Spoon some of the mixture atop the center of each pear, sprinkle with almonds, and serve. Makes four large servings. For a collection of seven savory recipes with cinnamon from various publications, visit www.theKitchn.com. Vietnamese cinnamon is available through Frontier Natural Products. They offer their organic Vietnamese cinnamon (5 percent oil) in one-pound bulk bags as well as 1.31-ounce bottles. This brand won the Gold Star Award from the restaurant industry publication Sante Magazine, who deemed it “a standout.”

notifications. And, with advances in mobile technology, gifting money is easier and more convenient than ever. For instance, using Bank of America’s online or mobile banking you can send money to another person using only their email address or mobile phone number, saving time, energy and effort. Prefer to send a check? No problem. Customers can simply access Bank of America’s mobile banking app on their smartphone or tablet to securely deposit checks on their schedule. Express gratitude - It’s important to remember that above all else, holiday tipping is really holiday thanking, extending a courteous gesture as a result of service throughout the year. No matter how much or what you decide to give, it’s always important to offer your thanks with a hand-written note or holiday card. After all, it’s the thought and sentiment behind the gesture that matters most, not the gift itself. Consider these holiday tipping guidelines from Post:

HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE |

(BPT) - When the holiday season arrives, so too does the enigma of holiday tipping. What’s supposed to be a sign of gratitude for great service, can quickly turn into stress as you try to decide if and how much you should tip the handyman, mail carrier, babysitter and many more. Lizzie Post, co-author of “Emily Post’s Etiquette, 18th edition” and great-great-granddaughter of Emily Post, knows the finer points of tipping during the holiday season, including who to tip, how much to tip and how to stay on budget doing so. Post has teamed with up Bank of America, and here are some of her suggestions: Make a list - The key to holiday tipping is to plan ahead so nobody gets overlooked. A tip is appropriate for people who have provided their services throughout the year, like your dog walker, housekeeper, personal trainer, hairstylist, doorman and trash collector. Don’t forget to think of the entire family in the process, as well - it’s always good to recognize babysitters, day care providers and nannies. Scale appropriately - The general rule of thumb for holiday tipping is up to the cost of one instance of service. However, this does not ring true for everyone on your list. Individuals who provide service on a more regular basis, such as an au pair or housekeeper, may require additional recognition, such as one week’s pay. Some people who may appreciate a gift, but most likely cannot accept cash, include your child’s teacher, health care professionals and government employees, like your mail carrier. By making gift purchases for these individuals with a rewards card, such as BankAmericard Cash Rewards(TM) card, you can earn cash back on every purchase, so when the holidays conclude, you have extra money in your pocket. Leverage technology - The holiday season is a hectic time of year for many people, so leverage technology to make life easier. Using easy-to-use tools, such as Bank of America’s mobile application, you can stay on top of account balances for gift giving and set up alerts to get balance

of Santa alive. In addition to the standard traditions of leaving cookies and milk out for the jolly old man, come up with new ways to evoke the essence of Santa. Spray peppermint air freshener around the tree and other places Santa is sure to visit. Use a large boot to make a footprint in a plush rug. Find a way to trigger noise on the roof to give kids the impression that Mr. Claus himself has arrived. Extra measures to keep Santa alive can help everyone enjoy the holiday that much more. * Take advantage of opportunities to spend time with Santa. Parents and children alike have many opportunities to spend time with Santa during the holiday season, including photo opportunities at the mall and personalized videos sent directly to youngsters’ email accounts. Elf dolls and breakfast with Santa at a nearby restaurant are other opportunities to spread the magic. Make the most of these opportunities over the course of the holiday season. * Spread some Christmas cheer. Santa’s job is to bring presents to the world’s children. Channel the notion that giving is better than receiving and spend time giving back to others as a family. Schedule a day when you can distribute gifts at a senior center or arrange to bring gifts to a foster child. Bake cookies and deliver cellophane-wrapped dishes to all of your neighbors. These activities put the emphasis on giving. Keeping the tradition of Santa Claus alive can help adults and children alike enjoy a more festive holiday season.

e had a broad face and a little round belly that shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly. He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf. And I laughed when I saw him in spite of myself. - “A Visit From St. Nicholas” Christmas just wouldn’t be the same without Santa Claus. Santa will forever be ingrained in the holiday season, serving as an endearing symbol of the season regardless of your religious affiliation. Parents typically go to great lengths to ensure their children enjoy the holiday season. By keeping the magic of Santa alive, parents can add a special touch to the holiday season for their youngsters. Children may become more skeptical of Santa around the time they turn 10, but there are plenty of ways to encourage this spirit to live on year after year. * Read an uplifting story. The holidays are ripe with stories that tug at the heartstrings. Parents can take their children to the library and rent a Christmas tale or take home a book of holiday stories, reading a different one before bed each night. Encourage children to write their own positive stories of what the holidays mean to them and read them aloud to family and friends. The book “101 Ways to Keep the Spirit of Santa Alive: For “Kids” From 1 to 92” by John Hagerman is a great way to get everyone in the house enthusiastic about Santa. * Keep the magic flowing. Children who believe in Santa for an extra year or two often come from families that keep the magic

Mike Pizzello goes up for a header against Rutgers-Camden Dec. 6 in an NCAA Division III semifinal. Pizzello has been a key player for Loras College in back-to-back runs to the Final Four.

Pizzello’s soccer success continues at Loras By DAN SANTAROMITA

Mike Pizzello 2013 stats

dsantaromita@shawmedia.com DUBUQUE, Iowa – Mike Pizzello has experienced a lot of winning on soccer fields. The Timothy Christian grad was a part of the Trojans’ state championship team in 2009 and the runner up squad in 2008. After graduating, the Elmhurst native joined another successful program in Loras College. Pizzello, currently a junior for Loras, has gone to the Division III Final Four with the Hawks the past two seasons. Loras has won the Iowa Intercollegiate Athletics Conference tournament in each of Pizzello’s three years, and the Hawks have amassed a

Appearances: 24 Starts: 19 Goals: 4

59-7-7 record. “Ever since the start of the season we were very confident again that we would be able to put ourselves in a good spot,” Pizzello said. The defender/midfielder played a big role in the Hawks’ postseason success. In addition to playing in every game this season, Pizzello scored the game-winning goal in the quarterfinal win against Trinity. The Hawks

trailed 1-0 at halftime, but scored twice in the second half to win 2-1. Pizzello headed in the game-winner off a corner kick. “I can’t really describe how I was feeling,” Pizzello said. “It was really unbelievable that I was in the right position at the right time. I was able Mike to get my head on the Pizzello ball to give us the lead in that game.” The Hawks ended up falling in the Final Four for the second year in a row. Last year, it was an overtime defeat to eventual champion Messiah College. On Dec. 6, they lost 3-2 to

Rutgers-Camden. Loras led 2-1 before Rutgers-Camden equalized with 2:30 to go in regulation and went on to win in overtime. Pizzello will have one more year to push for a national title with the Hawks, and will draw on past experience to help make it happen. He fondly remembers his high school days when Timothy Christian got over the hump to win the state title. “Just being a part of a small school that didn’t really get a lot of recognition in soccer and wasn’t really a part of that state recognition stage,” Pizzello said, “and bringing them onto that stage and winning a state championship and getting there two years in a row was good.”

North Central College’s Ryan Kent looks for running room in a game earlier this season. Kent has been a major force in helping the Cardinals into the NCAA Division III semifinals.

Elmhurst products impact postseason SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA With the cold weather, college fall sports are nearing their conclusion. A number of Elmhurst products contributed to postseason success for their college teams. Take a look at some of the highlights among that group.

Biesboer wins D3 volleyball title Timothy Christian graduate Elise Biesboer helped the Calvin College women’s volleyball team win the Division III national title. Biesboer, a junior libero, had 12 digs in the championship match, which was a five-set victory over Cal Lutheran. Calvin won the match 2025, 12-25, 25-22, 25-17, 20-18. Last year the Knights lost a five-set match in the final. Biesboer played in all 36 matches and was fourth on the team with 249 digs.

Kent finding end zone for North Central Former York running back Ryan Kent has been a touchdown machine in the playoffs for North Central. The Cardinals play a Division

III semifinal at 11 a.m. Saturday at Mount Union largely because of Kent’s production. The junior has scored four touchdowns in each of the past two games to match a school record. Kent ran for 257 yards on 27 carries in a 5224 win over Wisconsin-Platteville in the second round. All four of his scores were more than 10 yards. In the 41-17 win at Bethel University in the quarterfinals last Saturday, Kent totaled 109 yards and all four of his touchdowns came from inside 2 yards. The No. 4 Cardinals have a tough task ahead against Mount Union, 11-time national champions and the topranked team all season.

Ordonez finished with four goals and an assist, which came in the second round victory against Illinois State. DePaul junior MaryKate Cicinelli was a regular for the Blue Demons, who were knocked out by Indiana in the first round. Cicinelli played in 20 matches and came off the bench in the 1-0 loss to the Hoosiers. West Virginia freshman Bryce Banuelos didn’t see much action this season, making three substitute appearances, but the Mountaineers won the Big 12 regular season and tournament titles before bowing out in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.

Duke soccer well represented in tourney

Bowman wraps up successful college career

Three former York girls soccer players were a part of Division I teams that qualified for the NCAA Tournament. Christina Ordonez’s Michigan team made it all the way to the quarterfinals before losing to Virginia. Ordonez, a sophomore, played in all 23 matches for the Wolverines and made 10 starts this season, including all four tournament game.

Ashley Bowman, a York grad, finished her soccer career at Trinity International University in Deerfield. Bowman had a decorated career for Trinity. As a freshman she was the Team MVP. In 2011 and 2012 she was a second-team all-conference selection. This fall she was the team captain. Bowman and Trinity won the conference tournament this season.

side. At 6-foot-8, Toohey will have a height advantage in the paint against the more guard-oriented Lions. So far this season, most teams have focused on limiting his impact on the game by double teaming him in the post. Toohey and his teammates have punished opponents for that strategy so far. “I think there’s a heavy focus on Frank and he’s the type of player that’s very unselfish,” Doran said. “When he gets doubled, I think one of his best assets is passing the ball.” The Dukes have held five of their six opponents to 40 points or less, and York’s scoring output has come from a number of different players. A handful of Dukes are capable of leading the team in scoring in any game. “I guess that’s been our trademark this season early on,” Doran said. “Different guys have led us just about every night in scoring, and that’s hard to prepare for if you’re our opponent. I think our kids are pretty unselfish for the most part and do a pretty good job of spreading the ball around.”

ELMHURST – Things should get real interesting real soon for York’s boys basketball team. The Dukes started conference play with wins over Proviso West (60-35 on Dec. 6) and defending West Suburban Silver champion Hinsdale Central (34-30 a day later). A 2-0 start in West Suburban Silver play is nice, but it’s just the start. “It’s a real good start, but we certainly can’t be satisfied,” York coach Vince Doran said. “We’ve been very strong defensively early on here in the season. There’s tremendous room for improvement on the offensive end, and I think that will come with time.” Tonight’s opponent is a Lyons Township team with plenty of talent. The Lions feature junior Harrison Niego, who has Division I offers, and a senior-heavy team. LT won at Glenbard West in its conference opener. “It’s definitely going to be a good challenge,” Doran said. “They might be the best team we’ve played to this point. They have a Division I point guard and their kids play hard.” York (6-0) has won five in a row against LT, including a regional semifinal last year. The key to making it six in a row will be limiting Niego’s effectiveness while feeding Frank Toohey the ball in-

What do you think of the team’s start to the season?

us starting to reach our goal.

Well, our goal is to go undefeated in conference this year, so we’ve been working really hard and it’s nice to see

Do you have any college plans yet?

Was the win at Proviso East the biggest game so far? Yeah. We were all nervous going into it because it was our first big game and we were down at halftime. Then we just all came together after halftime, played really hard and came back and won. It was important to us.

Who on the team has impressed you? We have a sophomore, Danielle Velasquez, who has been working really hard. She’s impressed a lot of people. She also hustles and she’s always working hard so it’s nice to have her on the team.

I’m still undecided between basketball and track.

Are the Browns the cupcake the Bears need? Hub Arkush

With the Bears desperately needing to close out the season with three more wins to keep their hopes of winning the NFC North and a trip to the playoffs alive, the Cleveland Browns would appear to be exactly the cupcake the doctor ordered. After all, the Browns are 4-9, mired in a four-game losing streak, and stuck in last place in the AFC North. Ah, but looks can be deceiving. The Bears have faced three other lastplace teams this season in the Vikings, Redskins and Rams, and their record is 1-3 against them, with a loss to each. While the Browns record is weak, they do own victories over the Bengals and Ravens, and they actually had a 26-14 lead last week in New England with only two minutes remaining before the Patri-

ots made a miraculous comeback with the help of some questionable officiating. This is a team the Bears absolutely cannot afford to look past if they don’t want to risk all the ground they just made with Monday night’s win over the Cowboys. The good news for the Bears is the Browns’ greatest struggles are in the area of the Bears’ greatest challenge. While the Bears are still dead last in the NFL against the run, the Browns are only 28th in the NFL in rushing and 27th in average gain per run. That is in large part due to their early season trade of Trent Richardson to the Colts, which may have netted them an extra first round draft choice in the 2014 draft, but left them with the aged Willis McGahee, who is averaging only 2.7 yards a carry, and youngsters Chris Ogbonnaya and Fozzy Whittaker. Cleveland is better throwing the football, ranking 10th in passing yardage, but they’re only 28th in average gain per pass and are 18th in interceptions and sacks allowed.

herma Tru Doors

Part of the problem is the inability to keep quarterbacks healthy. Brian Hoyer had won the starting job before tearing up a knee and going down for the year, and former Bears’ quarterback Jason Campbell was playing very well with an 88.0 passer rating before battling a concussion for several weeks. Campbell did make it back last week to throw for 391 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions at New England, the bulk of it going to Josh Gordon. Gordon is enjoying an All-Pro type season with 71 receptions, 1,400 yards and eight touchdowns. He will pose the biggest challenge for the Bears’ defense, Tim Jennings and Zack Bowman in particular. Tight end Jordan Cameron also is extremely dangerous. He’s caught 72 passes for 825 yards and seven touchdowns on the year. For all their prowess in the passing game, the Browns still average only 19.8 points a game, good for 27th in the league is scoring. The Browns’ defense has been ex-

cellent most of the season in keeping opposing offenses off the field, ranking seventh in total defense, fourth against the run and second in average yards per rushing play. They are eighth against the pass, and third in average yards per pass play. Big plays are the Browns defense’s Achilles heel, though, as it’s only 24th in interceptions, 14th in sacks and 19th in points allowed. Paul Kruger and rookie first-round draft pick Barkevious Mingo are their best pass rushers. D’Qwell Jackson is the club’s leading tackler from the inside linebacker spot, and Phil Taylor and Ahtyba Rubin do a really nice job up front at nose tackle and the five techniques, respectively, in the Browns’ base 3-4 defense. If the Bears’ offense plays like it did against the Cowboys, it’ll be an extremely tough out for Cleveland. But if the Bears can’t pressure Campbell in the pocket, he, Gordon and Cameron will give the Bears another shootout like all the other last-place clubs they’ve faced.

Trains serve many purposes. They are used for moving cargo, for getting workers to the places they need to go in big cities, and for travel and sightseeing. Trains move fast and strive to be on time, running on strict schedules so passengers know exactly when the trains are going to arrive to pick them up and drop them off. Help unscramble the schedule for the train. Take a look at the town names and times below, and put the stops in order (1 through 9) next to the pole on the tracks. Start at the irst stop early in the morning, and the last stop late at night. - Ozark Village, 3:21 p.m. - Lincoln, 10:01 a.m. - arapahoe, 11:52 a.m. - Roadway, 9:30 p.m. - Lionshead, 8:53 a.m.
