WESTMONT — It has been a busy year in the village of Westmont — from attempts to fill vacant storefronts and grow the local economy to plans to rewrite the village’s com-prehensive plan.

The Westmont Village Board also set the stage to imple-ment its first tax increment finance districts in village his-tory in an effort to entice developers to open business in Westmont.

Residents also voted to repeal home rule status, a move that officials say could end up costing the village $2 million in revenue annually.

Village Trustee Steve Nero shares his thoughts on those highlights of 2012 as well as the challenges 2013 may bring for Westmont.

What have been some of the highlights in the village of Westmont in 2012?

There have been many. Among the highlights is the launching of the new village website. Each member of the community can find just about anything they need on our website. Whether it’s viewing the village calendar, reporting a concern, making a payment or keeping up on local news, the site is a great way to stay connected to the village.

The village of Downers Grove and Westmont partnered for the electric aggregation program. With the two villages’ agreement, residents should see an automatic reduction on their electric bill of around 30 percent. Other highlights include the creation of the South Westmont Business District tax increment finance district and the completion of the 55th Street/Cass Avenue intersection construction project, where traffic congestion has been reduced significantly with the additions of turn lanes and a new stop light.

When it comes to business and new development in Westmont, what can be done to fill vacant storefronts?

There are a few ways. One is through incentive pro-grams, such as sales tax breaks, fee reductions and other incentives. Another is through permit assistance and streamlining the process for potential developers. Another is to implement the downtown TIF and South Westmont Business District TIF at 63rd Street and Cass Avenue to entice new developers to the area. We also need to look at implementing a “Pop Up” store program to help fill vacancies immediately. This program will allow stores to come in “temporarily” and has been very successful in other areas of the country, and gives a potential busi-ness owner an opportunity to test the market for a smaller investment.

What is your top resolution for 2013 for the village, and what are the steps fulfill it?

To be the leader not the follower. Westmont has a history of trying new things last. I pledge to work with the rest of the board to be ahead of the curve in any way possible. We need to be competitive and willing to try to make things work. In 2013, I plan to work with my colleagues to allow Westmont to take on new innovative ideas. ... Bringing in new vibrant busi-nesses is a must. As a board, we have to look into the success-es of other towns and implement a similar plan in Westmont.

One of the biggest events this year was residents voting to cease home rule. How do you think this will impact the village in 2013 and beyond?

Adjusting to the loss of home rule, both financially and administratively, is the number one thing the Westmont Village Board will need to address in the new year. First and foremost, losing about $2 million is going to be tough to compensate for. Residents will see a direct affect on their

services as a result of the loss of home rule. It’s unfortunate that a small majority of residences took this power away from the board. Actual impacts to the residents will be discovered throughout the budgeting process.

As one of the youngest elected officials in Westmont, where do you see the village in five years?

I see Westmont in five years with some significant devel-opment projects near completion or underway. With the suc-cessful adoption of a TIF district in the downtown area and the South Westmont Business District significant changes are bound to happen.

WESTMONT — Those in Westmont looking to gamble legally on video termi-nals soon won’t have to go to a casino to do it.

The Westmont Village Board voted Monday to lift the ban on video gaming terminals in the village, and businesses will now be able to install machines if they choose. The vote was 4-2 on the issue.

Westmont joins nearby towns Oakbrook Terrace, Lemont and Clarendon Hills to give the green light to the video game gam-bling machines, according to the Illinois Gaming Board website.

The move comes three years after the village board issued a moratorium on video game gambling terminals. At the time, while machines were approved by the Illinois State Legislature, local municipali-ties were put in control of whether or not they should be allowed locally.

The village revisited the issue earlier this year, conducting a public survey about allowing video gaming in the village. The survey netted 298 responses, with 117 in favor, 111 against and 54 indifferent.

In a separate survey of 54 liquor licenses businesses in Westmont, only nine said they would seek a license for gaming, according to Westmont Police Chief Tom Mulhearn.

Under state law, only businesses that hold liquor licenses would be allowed to operate the machines, including taverns, restaurants or fraternal organizations such as the Knights of Columbus hall in Westmont. There are 43 businesses in the

village that would be eligible under the guidelines, according to Mulhearn.

It's unclear what amount of revenue the village could receive with video game gambling machines, as it would depend on the number of businesses that choose to operate them, how many machines would be installed, and to what extent they are used. Mulhearn did say the vil-lage could receive up to $2,500 annually per machine.

Under the law, the state takes 30 per-cent of the revenue generated from each machine, with one-sixth of that going back to the local municipalities. The prof-its after that are split 50-50 between the

machine operator and the owner of theestablishment where the machines arelocated. Municipalities can also charge anannual fee of $25 per machine.

State law limits each establishment toa maximum of five gaming terminals. ButTrustee Ellen Emery, who voted againstlifting the gaming ban, said the IllinoisState Legislature may at some point lift themaximum number of terminals allowed.She is concerned that the state could allowan unlimited number of machines insideestablishments without local regulation.

Trustee Sue Senicka said the issue ofallowing more machines in the future issomething the village will address when itcomes up.

“It isn’t our responsibly to address howpeople spend their money, whether itsgambling or otherwise,” said Senicka, whowas in favor of lifting the ban.

Trustee Lee Fleming, who voted to allowthe gaming, said it will fall on the villageboard and police to make sure the law isbeing followed when it comes to gaming.

“I just hope that going forward for any-one who sits on this board that this is mon-itored and watched, and a lot of it is goingon to the Westmont Police Departmentand their officers to see that this properlydone,” Fleming said.

Village board cuts elected offi cials’ stipends after months of discussionBy DAVID [email protected]

WESTMONT — On the heels of los-ing home rule status and the taxing pow-ers that come with it, Westmont officials have said they will be forced to find addi-tional revenue and cut costs.

The Westmont Village Board made a move to do the latter last week, approving a proposal to eliminate elected officials’ compensation, a move the board said will save close to $50,000 annually.

The new ordinance, approved Dec. 17 with a 5-1 vote, eliminates stipend pay for village board trustees, the mayor and appointed commissioners of the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Police and Fire Commission. It does not include ending the pay of the village clerk, a posi-tion that board members agreed should be paid.

Still, the ordinance could take a few years before it fully takes effect. State law says elected officials cannot be forced to lose any stipends until their term ends. However, those receiving compensation can voluntarily waive it anytime.

Under current ordinance, Mayor Bill Rahn is paid $8,000 and Village Clerk Virginia Szymski is paid $6,000 annually.

Village trustees are paid $100 per meet-ing, and the board typically meets four times a month — twice for the committee of the whole meetings, twice for voting meetings.

Trustee Sue Senicka has been lobbying to reduce pay of elected officials for some time. Her argument was that meetings are often very short — some only 15 minutes long — and the trustees’ stipends were not good use of taxpayer money.

“These are tough financial times, and it may not get much better,” Senicka said.

“We have employees taking pay cuts and furlough days, and I feel it is time for us to do it as well.”

This fiscal year, $48,900 was budget-ed for elected officials’ compensation, Village Manger Ron Searl said, includ-ing $28,000 for village board mem-bers, $3,000 for Planning ands Zoning Commission members and $3,800 for Police and Fire Commissioners members, in addition to the salaries of the mayor and village clerk.

With elections coming up in April, dur-ing which a new mayor will be selected, any officials elected will still be eligible for compensation, according to village attorney John Zemenak. Because the ordinance was adopted within 180 days of the election, those elected will not lose

c o m p e n s a t i o n ,unless they chooseso, he said.

Trustee PatKlebenow was thelone trustee to voteagainst ending thecompensation.

She reasonedthat there areevents that villagetrustees attend thatrequire fees and

payments, such as chamber of commercedinners, golf outings and other publicevents, and she said the stipend was usedfor those purposes.

“Some families of elected officials maynot be able to pay the $65 per person foran event dinner, unless the village findssome way to set money aside in the bud-get so they could do that, as the villagewants those elected officials to be at thepublic events,” she said.

Officials said that if the annual bud-get allows, some funds could be set asideto send elected officials to some events,such as the annual awards dinner, stateor regional conferences, and other events,based on what the budget allows duringthat upcoming fiscal year.

By the numbersn $400: The amount Westmont Village Board trustees are paid each month to attend four meetings.n $48,900: The amount the village of Westmont budgeted for elected and appointed officials compensation in the current budget.


“ These are tough financial times , and it may not get much better. We have employees taking

pay cuts and furlough days, and I feel it is time for us to do it as well.”

NEWS BRIEFSWestmont theater group holding auditions for spring performance

WESTMONT — The Progressive Village Performance Network of Westmont is holding open auditions for the first show of their 2013 season, “The Bleacher Bums”, next month, and anyone from the commu-nity is welcome to try out.

Auditions will take place from 2 to 5 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 6 and 7 to 9 p.m. Monday, Jan. 7 at the Westmont Community Center, located at 75 E. Richmond St.

“The Bleacher Bums” is a classic base-ball comedy, written by Chicago actor, Joe Mantegna that is set locally. The play is about a group of dedicated Chicago Cubs fans who show up at Wrigley Field to watch their favorite team play. Most of these lov-able losers have been gathering here for some time and know each other; even if they might not necessarily like or toler-ate each other, but share their love for the Chicago Cubs. Beer is being drunk, hot dogs are being eaten, and friendly wagers start to take on increasing importance on one particular summer afternoon.

First time director and Westmont resi-dent Bob Mackert is looking for actors and actresses to fit various roles, regardless of experience. Other than one young boy, 10-12 years old, roles are available for men and women who are aged 17 to 60. Those auditioning will be reading excerpts from the script. The PVPN indicated the show is PG-13 in nature, as the story does contain some mature language and situations.

Performances are scheduled for the weekend of March 8, 9 and 10 at Westview Hills Middle School in Willowbrook.

For more information, contact Steve Golembiewski at the Westmont Park District at 630-963-5252.

Westmont extending employee coat drive through January

WESTMONT — For the past sev-eral years, employees of the village of Westmont have spearheaded an initiative to collect winter coats and donate them to area families in need.

This year, due to the demand, orga-nizers have decided to run the coat drive through the holiday season until the end of January.

As of Dec. 12, organizers said more than 150 coats and other winter garments have been collected. These items will be deliv-ered to the Fish Food Pantry Program in Downers Grove during the week of Dec. 17.

“This year, we decided to extend the drive through the end of January,” said Patti Mielcarski, a Westmont resident, and an employee of the village. “The idea is that maybe some people will get new win-

ter coats or other items over the holidays, so then they might want to donate their replaced items to people who need them.”

Residents can continue to make win-ter coat donations to the Village Hall, 31 W. Quincy St.; the Westmont Police Department, 500 N. Cass; or the Westmont Fire Department, 6015 S. Cass, through the end of January.

For more information on the Fish Program, visit the website at www.dgfish.org or call 630-964-7776.

Westmont theater group looking for local filmmakers to showcase work

The Frozen Film Festival will be held from Feb. 22 to Feb. 24 at the Westmont Community Center.

The PVPN, Westmont theater group, has been talking about putting on a film festi-val featuring the works of local filmmakers for over a year, but has been unable to do so due to a lack of submissions.

Any local filmmakers looking to sub-mit a film for the festival can call Steve Golembiewski for more information and guidelines for submissions at 630-963-5252.

WESTMONT — Diane Eenigenburg says she will miss her customers and many friends in town, but she won’t speak as much to the reason she’s moving her award-winning bakery out of town.

La Petite Sweet in Westmont closed its doors last week after five years.

“I will miss the people and being part of the community,” Eenigenburg said. “It’s been good here, but I’m excited about the future for the business.”

Eenigenburg said she will reopen the shop in Naperville by springtime. She said the decision to leave is based on “issues with the building,” though she would not

elaborate.La Petite Sweet opened in the spring

of 2008 and started off as a coffee shop that sold homemade cookies. At the time, Eenigenburg said it was her dream to open a business where she could sell her home-made cakes and pastries.

But La Petite Sweet became known for

more, including a specialty in creating elab-orate cakes. The bakery even won awards and recognition from the bridal magazine The Knot, which named it as one of best creators of wedding cakes three years in a row.

“I am really proud of what we built here,” she said, adding that she would encounter 18-hour work days. “Not only the business, but the fixtures, and the furniture in the shop, the artwork. All this is what I envi-sioned when I opened here in Westmont.”

La Petite Sweet was also a fixture in many downtown activities, such as the Crusin Night’ classic car shows during the summer, the new farmers market this year, Chamber of Commerce events and more. She also donated cakes and other items to local groups and organizations, such as Holy Trinity Catholic Church.

The new Naperville bakery is also an opportunity for her to adjust her menu.

“One of my goals has always been to expand on the gluten-free dietary items, and this will be a big emphasis when I do open the new place,” Eenigenburg said.

The closing of yet another downtown business is part of a growing issue in Westmont.

La Petite Sweet’s exit comes in the wake of two other downtown businesses closing up shop, including Interiors By Gina, 220 N. Cass Ave., which closed this month, and Sweet Pea Children’s Consignment, 41 N. Cass, which closed earlier this fall.

Trustee Sue Senicka said that with thebusiness climate the away it is, the “Mom and Pop” businesses like La Petite Sweet and others are finding it very difficult to make a profit.

But despite the recent closings, she believes there will be a boom in the down-town at some point.

The village is in the process of establish-ing a tax increment finance district in thedowntown, which Senicka said the village “is very late in doing,” and the village also implemented a new facade grant programthat provides money for businesses to make improvements for both exterior and life-safety improvements inside buildings.

Senicka said the vacancy issues also falls on the hands of both business owners, andthe owners of those buildings, to keep thebusiness community strong.

“We, as a village, can only do so much,”Senicka said. “Much of the problems are onthe landlords of these vacant buildings to do more, and we can’t force them to do that.”

But Eenigenburg, who has seen many businesses around her come and go in thelast few years, said the village board and staff can do more to make Westmont a bet-ter community to operate a business.

“So many times, people open up busi-nesses here, and many of the village officialsare excited to get them in, and then they don’t care about them once they are open,”Eenigenburg said. “That needs to change if Westmont is going to thrive in the future.”

Thumbs Up — In the wake of the recent school shooting in Connecticut, the Westmont community is coming together to remember the victims and ensure safety is a priority at local schools. A candlelight vigil for the victims held Dec. 16 at Ty Warner Park drew more than 100 people and featured speakers from a number of different groups in the community. The vigil was organized by Westmont resident and police officer Jim Schlicher.

Thumbs Up — Administrators have stepped up safety precautions in Downers Grove schools in response to the Connecticut tragedy. The front doors at the elementary and middle schools in Downers Grove School District 58 are now locked while students are in attendance, and guests will have to contact the front office to be admitted. Doorbells have been installed at each school. For now, a staff mem-ber will let guests in manually, while district officials consider a more sophisticated buzzer system. The district already had a policy to keep all other doors locked during attendance hours.

Kind acts performed attest to meaning of Christmas

I have heard by those who claim to be knowledgeable that we have lost the meaning of Christmas. To those who express these feelings, I say open your eyes and listen.

I have walked in my village and other communities since Thanksgiving and have seen and heard many things.

I have seen many grocery stores place large boxes in front of their stores so that customers could perform good deeds. I was in a store and saw an older couple place more in the box than they had in their cart for their needs.

As I walked the village, I heard school children singing in prac-tice for a program they would give for those confined to nurs-ing homes. It would be the busy mothers and fathers who piled them into cars to bring this joy and music to those who could no longer travel.

As I passed club houses, lodges and veterans meeting halls, members were carrying merchandise into the halls to be wrapped. I have seen an older couple carrying packages into a church, telling each other to be careful, don’t fall.

At other churches, families were bringing food to fill pantries for those in need. I have seen men and women from all races and color and different walks of life contribute their time and energy to bring joy and comfort to those who need it the most.

See Letters, Page 15

A person has to look no further than my office this time of year to understand the compassion and care that the residents of Westmont have for their neighbors, especially during the holiday season.

I have the privilege of sharing my office with all of the Holly Days Giving Tree gifts until the day they are transported and pre-pared for pick up by their recipients. As I write this, the only clear path left is the one to

my office door.Each year, the Holly Days

Committee works with a local agency to present The Giving Tree. The tree is located in the Community Center and is decorated with stars that represent requests from our Westmont neigh-bors who need a little extra help during the holidays.

The response this year, as always, has been overwhelming: All 79 stars were cho-sen. Looking around the office, I know that those children will smile a little bigger this Christmas because of the sincere generos-ity of those who purchased these Giving Tree gifts.

I have also been overwhelmed by the dona-tions for the Holly Days Food Drive. Before we even officially began the food drive on Nov. 18,a couple came to the Community Center and donated several cases of nonperishable items.

In addition, the Progressive Village Performing Network shared its talents with “The Bishop’s Wife” on Dec. 8. Rather than charging a fee for its performance, the group requested food drive donations.

Not only were our collection boxes filled with food but several toys were donated, too. These donations will be sent to the People’s Resource Center here in Westmont.

I am confident in speaking for the Holly Days Committee when I say thank you, thank you, thank you for your generosity and sup-port of these programs and those who benefit from them. During a time that is challenging for many, it’s touching to see a community step forward to help those who need it. Best wishes to all of you for a very happy and healthy holiday and a wonderful New Year.

Woodridge warns residents about telephone solicitations

WOODRIDGE — The village of Woodridge is alerting residents about an energy com-pany that has been calling residents falsely claiming that they are working with the vil-lage as part of Woodridge’s participation in the electrical aggregation program.

According to a news release issued by the village, a company called Sperling Energy allegedly is calling energy custom-ers and falsely representing that they are Woodridge’s energy company. Sperling Energy is not in any way affiliated with the village or its electric aggregation program.

Residents are advised to not provide any personal information to Sperling Energy, and to consider the safety of their personal infor-mation prior to providing it to any company that conducts business solicitations over the phone.

For information, call the village of Woodridge at 630-852-7000.

LETTERS Continued from Page 10

I know I am older and don’t or hear as well as I used to, but I know the meaning of Christmas still exists. Because on Christmas Eve, a mother, father, grandparent, guardian, senior citizen or veteran rested because of the good deeds performed by so many to fulfill certain needs.

To those who have taken time from their busy lives and from their treasury to perform these good deeds, I hope as you rested this Christmas Eve that you allowed the peace of that night to enter your hearts and awakened to the love and joy of Christmas Day. For you have truly prepared for the way of the child.John Cantlin, Downers Grove

Charitable group gratefulfor community support

The volunteers of the Downers Grove FISH Pantry wish to thank the many people who have donated so generously this Christmas season. In the true spirit of giving, we have received food, clothing and monetary dona-tions from many local businesses, church groups, school groups, grocery stores and social groups — and the generosity keeps growing.

The third-grade Brownies of Indian Trails School and Cub Scout Pack 227 have collect-ed an amazing amount of food. An employee group from Commonwealth Edison dropped off a carload of food.

Coats, mittens, scarves and games were given as well. Wannemaker’s Home & Garden Center as well as Operation Pine Needle, courtesy of the Knights Templar, have donat-ed fresh Christmas trees again this year.

We are very grateful to everyone who has contributed to help those in our local com-munity who are less fortunate.

Together, we are helping to make life a bit easier for our most vulnerable citizens during this Christmas season. Please know what a difference you make by reaching out to our neighbors in need.

The Downers Grove Area FISH Inc. has continued to serve the local communities’ emergency needs for 43 year through the

generosity of our local residents. In this eco-nomic climate, more and more families are suffering unemployment and difficulties we have never experienced in our lifetimes.

Please consider the needs of others in our community when you are grocery shopping. If you miss a food drive, we accept donations at the pantry year-round. We accept mon-etary gifts — a higher value — with our ability to purchase food commodities through our large quantity discounts from the Northern Illinois Food Bank.

If you are in a desperate situation, we do our best to help. Please contact us by calling 630-964-7776.

The FISH Food and Clothing Pantry is located in the Downers Grove Township building, 4340 Prince St. in Downers Grove. The FISH Pantry is open for emergency business from 9 to 11:15 a.m. on Monday and Friday.

The FISH pantry is 100 percent volunteer and 100 percent nonprofit Our services are provided using no government funding or grants. Visit www.dgfish.org for more infor-mation.Laurel Q. Bowen, board member, Downers Grove Area FISH Pantry

School board presidentto run for re-election

I recently filed for re-election to the Community High School District 99 Board of Education.

I am running for re-election because I believe strong, locally controlled public schools are a vital cornerstone of our com-munity. I believe I have provided calm, steady leadership while promoting the idea that all District 99 constituencies deserve to have their voices heard.

I also understand and support the distinc-tion between an elected school board, which establishes the overall direction for the dis-trict, and our professional educators, who implement the district’s mission on a day-to-day basis. Finally, I am guided by the belief that although District 99’s two schools serve a number of municipalities, we are all members of one community.

District 99 has been a strong and successful district for many years. However, the last two

years have seen an exceptional list of accom-plishments that will benefit our entire com-munity well into the future.n Quietly and with minimal controversy,

we reached agreement on a teachers contract that is frugal and yet fair to both the taxpayers and our faculty;n The overall costs of administration

remain admirably low, both in comparison with other districts and in comparison with amounts spent on student instruction;n Transparency regarding district opera-

tions, strategic planning, board meetings and finances has been enhanced in a number of different ways;n District 99 has strengthened its relation-

ships with all constituent communities;n Beautiful new outdoor facilities have

been installed and of greatest importance; andn Student achievement has remained

strong, both in the traditional academic subject areas and in music, speech, theater, athletics and the many other co-curricu-lar endeavors that make District 99 a truly remarkable school district.

I am also proud and pleased to note that all of these accomplishments have occurred within the constraints of a balanced and responsible budget.

Deborah Boyle has also filed for re-election to the District 99 Board of Education. I sup-port Mrs. Boyle in her bid for re-election, not because we always agree but because we have been able to work together effectively and productively notwithstanding our disagree-ments.

Despite our larger political differences, Mrs. Boyle and I share a common commitment to ensuring that all stakeholders within our community are afforded a seat at the table so their voices may be heard with respect and courtesy. Successful representative govern-ment requires a willingness to cooperate and collaborate, especially among those with whom we disagree, and is absolutely neces-sary if we are to engage the entire community in supporting our public schools.

I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy holiday season, and I look forward to sharing my vision as to how strong, locally controlled public schools will benefit everyone in the District 99 community.Bill White, Downers Grove, president of

the Community High School District 99 Board of Education

Roskam understands needto keep tax rates lower

Like most Americans, I am distressed to see a lack of progress on work to solve the loom-ing problem of the so-called “fiscal cliff.”

Does any clear-mined person really think we have a low taxation problem in Washington, D.C.? No. But most people realize we have a high spending (i.e., over-spending) problem in Washington, D.C. — and in many states, too.

I voted for U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam because he understands this basic concept. He also knows that increasing taxes now is danger-ous.

If there is an economic recovery under way now in America (and that is doubtful), an increase in anyone’s taxes might do more immediate harm than good. It could stall any improvement.

Consider this: We know that cutting tax rates in the 1980s led to increased revenue and a strong recovery; in fact, a recovery that lasted 25 years! And if we are honest, we also know that any new taxes “confiscated” by Washington, D.C., will only go to more unbudgeted spending frenzies — not toward debt reduction.

Let’s face it: President Obama has no intention of reducing our debt. Instead, his policies will only grow government and saddle future generations of Americans with more debt.

The proof: He offers no cuts, and he’s added more than a $1 trillion (which to be clear is the equivalent of $1,000 billion) per year, each year, to the deficit! And President Obama has never worked within a budget. He couldn’t even get one Democrat Party vote for his submitted (and alarmingly irrespon-sible) budgets in the Senate.

Therefore, as long as U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam remains committed to solving our economic problems with common sense solutions like economic growth — not reck-less tax increases — I will continue to sup-port him and those like him in the House and Senate. Keep up the good work, Peter.Tom Hayes, Westmont

NEW YEAR’S EVEIt’s been a year of ups and downs, trag-

edies and accomplishments, and now it’s time to move on.

With 2013 just around the corner, it’s time to make plans to usher in the new year and leave 2012 behind.

How will you celebrate? We have options for those who want to spend the night with family and friends out on the town, as well as suggestions for people planning parties or quiet nights at home.

The suburbs have plenty of options for New Year’s Eve, whether it’s drinking, din-ing, or having fun with your family. So grab the bubbly, your friends and family and make plans to usher in the new year.

Are you looking to avoid the crowds and the cost of a night on

a town this New Year’s Eve? Those who stay in can make the night special with a variety of foods and drinks from markets and grocers across the western suburbs. Whether you’re throwing a party at home or just enjoying a quiet evening with the family, here are a few take-home suggestions that can add flair to the final night of 2012.

Trays galoreStandard Market in Westmont carries almost any-thing you fancy for your New Year’s Eve house party. The store caters and has the capability to concoct the ideal meal for your festivities, starting with a variety of food trays. “We’ve got a lot of really nice trays, like seafood, cheese trays, and wine trays, which come with a few different kinds of wine,” said Customer Service Manager Carolyn Kalafut. If the selection isn’t exactly what you’re looking for, the store can also custom-make a tray for a party or a celebration at home. To check out the New Year’s menu, visit standardmarket.com or call 630-366-7030. The market is located at 333 E. Ogden Ave., Westmont.

FeastNothing says the holidays like platters of food and full bellies, and New Year’s Eve shouldn’t be any dif-ferent. Geneva’s Moveable Feast has a special New Year’s Eve catering menu for those looking to throw a party. The choices can fit anyone’s needs and can accommodate a party of any size — just make sure you reserve your food early. Moveable Feast is locat-ed at 321 Franklin St., Geneva. To see a full menu, visit moveablefeastgeneva.com or call 630-845-3287.

Meats, meats, meatsInstead of butchering your own meat this New Year’s Eve, leave the work to Shannon’s Corner Butcher Shoppe. The Lombard butcher shop and deli duo has

nearly any meat imaginable, from sandwich trays to smoked salmon platters to cheese trays. It even offers vegetable trays and dessert. The shop is locat-ed at 15 S. Park Ave., Lombard. For more information, call 630- 953-9080 or visit shannonscornerbutchershoppe.com.

Sparkling wineBetter known as champagne, sparkling wine is a great choice for a New Year’s Eve party at home. Dick Westall, a wine consultant for Lynfred Winery and Tasting DeVine in Wheaton, recommends the shop’s sparking brut wine or the almond-flavored sparkling wine. He said both are excellent for parties because they go well with all food. “The brut is a typical drier champagne that would be the most appropriate,” he said. “The sparkling is light enough that it won’t dominate food, but it has enough acidity that the food won’t dominate the wine. The sparkling also cleanses the mouth so that every bite of food is like the first bite.” All of Tasting DeVine’s wines come from Roselle’s Lynfred Winery. Tasting DeVine is located at 127 W. Front St., Wheaton. For more infor-mation, call 630-752-9463 or visit lynfredwinery.com.

Flutes and wineVino E Birra in La Grange has lots of sparkling wine necessities for your New Year’s Eve party. If you’re stumped and don’t know what to get, the shop’s Carol Colvin has several suggestions. The first is a Prosecco Frizzante Treviso, which is a Fabio Ceschin Brut from Italy. Colvin says it’s “peachy, fruity and juicy with a good balance.” If you want to try a variety, Vino E Birra carries the 90+ Cellars Holiday Essentials Gift Pack. The box includes sauvignon blanc, French fusion red, Riesling, pinot noir, cabernet sauvignon and Prosecco along with tasting notes, pairing suggestions and recipes. Don’t forget to grab some govino flutes, which are reusable, recyclable and shatterproof. “Start the party with a do-it-your-self craft and guests can decorate their own flute using paint or markers from a hobby store,” Colvin said. Vino E Birra is located at 18 W. Burlington Ave., La Grange. To get your party started, visit vinoandbirra.com or call 708-639-4466.

Whether you stay in or go out, suburbs offer plenty of ways to ring in 2013 with style

OUT AND ABOUT

OUTDOOR ICE SKATINGDO IT

While most sports are forced indoors during winter weather, ice skating and hockey thrive during the cold. During the winter, many suburban park districts set up outdoor ice skating rinks for people to enjoy during the chilly winter months.One of those rinks is the Elmhurst YMCA’s outdoor rink, which is a compressed ice rink that has the same capabilities as many indoor rinks. Thanks to the compressor, the rink can function in any weather — as long as the temperature doesn’t reach upwards of 70 degrees or if it’s raining.

“It’s just amazing,” said Susan Chansey, the YMCA’s member relations and ice rink director. “It really encompasses a great sport, a great workout, and a great way to spend time with your friends and family.”

The compressors also give the YMCA the capability to create leagues and organizations. There’s a men’s hockey league, rat hockey, youth hockey, pre-hockey, holiday skating, family skating and skate school and classes. Open skates are held throughout the week at varying times. Chansey said an open skate held from 8:30 to 9:50 p.m. on Friday nights is one of the high-lights of the rink.

“Our night open skate with the sky and the stars and the outdoors is great as well,” Chansey said. “It’s a whole different experience than being inside in an enclosed space.”

WHAT YOU NEEDUnlike indoor rinks, outdoor rinks force guests to

pay attention to the weather and temperatures. Although it’s been unseasonably warm so far, when weather conditions drop, it would be ideal to have a hat, scarf, gloves and a winter coat to keep warm.Some outdoor rinks, such as the Elmhurst YMCA, also offer skate rentals for $4. Several rinks and ponds don’t provide skates, so be sure to check websites to find out before you go.

There’s also a fee for open skate, classes and leagues. The Elmhurst YMCA charges $5 for kids and $6 for adults during open skate, while fees at other rinks vary.

WHERE TO GO n The Elmhurst YMCA’s outdoor rink is open until March, and compressors keep the rink cold even

when it’s warm. There’s open skate as well as hockey leagues, skate lessons and family skate. Fees vary depending on the event, and skates are available for rent. The rink is located at 211 W. First St., Elmhurst. For details or more information, visit elmhurstymca.org or call 630-993-8900. Call the ice rink hotline at 630-834-9214 an hour before a scheduled activity to make sure the rink is open.n Naperville has several outdoor ice skating rinks that are open this winter. Although the weather has prohibited many from opening so far, once the weather hits at least 15 degrees for 72 hours straight, the rinks will be ready for skaters. Hockey is allowed at Centennial Park, 500 W. Jackson Ave., while the rink at Nike Sports Complex, 288 W. Diehl Road, permits broomball. All the other rinks are meant for open skate. Commissioners Park, 3704 111th St., and Gartner Park, 524 Gartner Road, are also open to the public. To check whether rinks are open, visit napervilleparks.org or call 630-848-5000. n There are rinks and ponds throughout Wheaton for outdoor winter fun. Lit skating rinks in Elmhurst include Northside Park at the north end of West Street, Rathje Park at Roosevelt and Delles roads, C.L. Herrick Park at Herrick at Armbrust streets and Kelly Park at 1100 Main St. has a man-made ice rink. Seven Gables on Winner’s Cup Circle and Hull Park at 1400 Hull Drive also have rinks that are not lit. Due to warm conditions, all rinks are currently closed, but will open when the weather cools. For more information on the rinks and conditions, visit wheatonparkdistrict.com or call 630-665-4710.

After years of experience in boutiques coupled with requests from friends and relatives seeking her clothing advice, Kathrine Eldridge translat-

ed her love of fashion into a career as a wardrobe stylist on the Urban Darling team. It allows schedule flexibili-ty that the Westmont mom was seeking. Eldridge, who grew up in Lombard, talks about life as fashionista.

Is the assessment process intimidating?When people think of stylist, they think of celebri-

ties. The reason I joined Urban Darling is their logo: “We style real people.” I’m here to help people. How many women walk into a closet and say, “I have noth-

ing to wear. …” Some people can’t get out of their ruts. I come in as an outsider and … make suggestions. In this economy, when people can’t afford to buy a whole new wardrobe — fine — let’s go into your closet and see what you have and find new ways to use it. (For example,) add a belt or necklace. I’m going to be very delicate, not a dictator. … But if you haven’t worn (something) in a year, chances are you’re not going to wear it. Most of the time, so much stuff in our closet just sits there. Leopard-print pants from six years ago? You’re not going

to wear it.

How does the service work?Something I offer is to give you a closet audit. I

come in and we go through everything in your closet, and you try stuff on for me. (We create) piles of what to keep, get rid of or tailor. If they do want to buy (some) new clothes, I help with that as well. I identify what basics are missing.

What do you consider basics?A black pencil skirt and a white button-down. A

great pair of black trousers. Some type of blazer, and great undergarments.

What are some of your options?Urban Darling offers virtual styling. Say they’re

not ready to have me come out for a full-blown closet audit, but need an outfit for a special occasion and want some suggestions. They can give me their crite-ria. There are so many great places to shop online. (I know) what the fit is.

What’s one of your secrets?One of my strengths is I can mix high and low price

points. I get little trendy pieces (from stores) that change up your look with not a lot of money. (And I suggest) when to invest more money in certain pieces — something you’ll wear for years.

Share a common fashion mistake and a piece of advice.People buy things too big for them. They don’t want

things hugging their body, thinking it hides flaws, but (actually) makes them look bigger. If you find a pair of jeans that fits you great … buy a second pair, if you

know it’s something you love and you wear it all the time. Sometimes, you’ll wear heels to dress it up. Have (each) hemmed according to what shoe you’re going to wear.

Are you big on trends?If you know what works for your body, stay with it.

You see so many trends coming out. (They) don’t work for every body type. The most important thing is stick with what looks right for your body. Don’t be swayed by every trend.

GIRLS VOLLEYBALLBenetNumber to know:

16, 24 Length of two separate winning streaks for the Redwings on the way to their second straight state titleTrophy trail:Benet was wearing the bullseye after claiming the state title in 2011, but instead of succumbing to the pressure the Redwings thrived. They were pushed to three games just four times during the regular season and won four tournament titles (Benet, Wheaton Classic, Mizuno Cup and Autumnfest) before storming to regional, sec-tional and supersectional titles. Benet was finally tested in the Class 4A semifinals and finals, losing the first game to Libertyville and New Trier, respectively, but came back in both matches to take home their third state trophy (second in 2008) in five years.

2012TAYLOR KRAMERBenet girls divingNumber to know:

11.05 Number of points by which Kramer trailed leader Allegra Codamon of Zion-Benton heading into the finalsTrophy trail: A sectional champ at Metea Valley with a point total of 426.60, Kramer found herself in second place after the first series of dives at state. With three dives left in the finals, the senior had a double-digit deficit to overcome, and that’s exactly what she did. She surpassed the leader, Allegra Codamon, and scored well enough to hold off Fenwick’s Michelle Kalupski for the title with a score of 414.25. Kramer’s effort helped the Redwings to a 21st-place finish as a team.Quote of note:

GABBY SIMSDowners Grove North girls swimmingNumber to know:

3 Total number of state medals Gabby Sims earned at the state meet, including the 100 backstroke and 400 freestyle relayTrophy trail: Sims won a pair of solo sectional titles (in the 100 backstroke and 100 freestyle), but the junior had more reasons to be pleased at the state meet. Looking to break the 50-second mark in the freestyle, she did it twice: she touched the wall in 49.65 with the fastest time in the prelims, then went even lower with a 49.57 in the finals to win the championship by more than a second. It was her third state title (200 medley relay as a freshman, 100 backstroke as a sophomore) and her 12th state medal overall.Quote of note: “It was really cool. I kind of went into the meet with the goal of going under 50 (seconds). When I looked up at my time, it was one of the most amazing moments of my life.” — Gabby Sims

“One of our concerns for Taylor over the years was her ability to concentrate and perform well in competition. This year she overcame those inabilities, and I think that is what she is most proud of in winning the state meet. That also is why she was able to come from behind to win — she was consistent and strong through the entire meet.” — Gerry Petit, Kramer’s coach at DuPage Diving Academy

4 X 100 RELAY Bolingbrook girls track and fieldNumber to know:1.08 Margin of victory, in seconds, for the Raiders’ quartet in the championshipraceTrophy trail:The 4 x 100 relay — seniors Rosemary Onyegbule, Kymbriona Taylor and Kimberly Azie with freshman Jessica Watkins running second in the finals — actually had to overcome some adversity on their way to the state title. Third runner Kymbriona Taylor pulled her hamstring at the conference meet two weeks prior to state and she didn’t run in the state prelims. No worries. Bolingbrook won its prelim race by more than a second and did the same in the finals to bring home the title.Quote of note: “Winning the 4 x 100 was a great feel-ing for the girls because they were deal-ing with some tough issues as a unit and they overcame them. One of the primary concerns was the leg of Kym Taylor, but she helped the team run a personal best of 46.58 seconds, which helped us to earn the school record and win the title.” — Howard Birmingham, Bolingbrook coach

ROB BAINSchool: BolingbrookSport: WrestlingPlace: 2ndFinish: Bain’s season got off to a late start after he helped Bolingbrook’s football team to the 2011 state title, but he quickly established himself as one of the top wrestlers in the state. He went undefeated through his first 26 matches, which included conference, regional and sectional titles. He made it all the way to the Class 3A 285-pound title match.

CULLEN CUMMINGSSchool: Downers Grove NorthSport: WrestlingPlace: 2ndFinish: Injury limited Cummings’ time on the mat early in the season but didn’t affect his performance later in the campaign. The regional champ advanced to the Class 3A state meet with a third-place finish at the sectional, but he left nothing to chance at state, winning his first three matches at 132 pounds to advance to the title match in his junior season.

GABBY SIMSSchool: Downers Grove NorthSport: Girls swimmingPlace: 2ndFinish: Facing Glenbrook South’s Olivia Smoliga (who clocked four state-record times at the state meet) in the 100 backstroke final, Sims placed second with a time of 54.02 seconds. Sims’ runner-up time was more than two seconds faster than the third-place time turned in by Hersey’s Amanda Petro (56.27)

Tim DollSchool: WestmontSport: Boys track and fieldPlace: 2ndFinish: One of three Westmont sectional champions (Doll won the 400-meter dash in 49.96 seconds), the sophomore main-tained that momentum at the Class 1A state meet last spring. He won his preliminary race in 50.38 and ran to second place in the state with a time of 49.99.

DOWNERS GROVE SOUTHSport: Girls soccerPlace: 3rdFinish: The Mustangs sent 29-year head coach Barry Jacobson out on a high note with a shootout win in the state third-place game against Glenbrook South. Both teams notched second-half goals and went to the shootout tied 1-1. Sarrah Ludwig, Jessica Pikul, Flo Beshiri and Brittany Dietz scored in the shoot-out to lift South to a 2-1 win, securing the fifth state trophy in Jacobson’s tenure.

JOHN SCHUBERTSchool: Downers Grove NorthSport: Boys gymnasticsPlace: 3rdFinish: Tied for ninth place after the floor exercise preliminaries at the state meet last spring, Schubert moved up in the finals. The junior tallied a 9.45 (with a high score of 9.6) and finished in a three-way tie for third place. He also was a state qualifier on pommel horse, vault, horizontal bars and parallel bars.

BENETSport: FootballPlace: Class 7A semifinalsFinish: The Redwings claimed the East Suburban Catholic Conference title with an 8-1 mark after a 1-8 season in 2011. They then won in the quarterfinal round of the Class 7A playoffs on Jack Toner’s last-second TD catch, and advanced to the semifinals for the first time in 28 years as they finished 11-2.

STRAHINJA SOPCICSchool: Downers Grove NorthSport: Boys gymnasticsPlace: 4thFinish: Turning in a score of 8.9 during a preliminary rotation on still rings at the state meet last spring, Sopcic did even better in the finals. Receiving a high score of 9.2 from one judge, the sophomore placed fourth in the state with a score of 8.95. He also competed on parallel bars, horizontal bars, pommel horse and floor exercise at state.

KIMBERLY AZIESchool: BolingbrookSport: Girls track and fieldPlace: 4thFinish: After helping the 4 x 100 relay to a state title, Azie didn’t have much time to rest up for her solo 100 dash. A few events after the relay, Azie captured her own state medal by placing fourth with a time of 11.94 seconds. She accomplished the feat from an outside lane after placing second in her preliminary heat. He finals time represented a time drop of more than a quarter of a second from her sectional title time (12.25).

DOWNERS GROVE NORTHSport: Girls swimmingPlace: 4thFinish: The Trojans won a sectional title in the 400-yard free-style relay with a time of 3:30.42, but they were even better at the state meet in November. The quartet of junior Maddy Sims, sophomore Emily Albrecht, senior Hannah Kaufmann and junior Gabby Sims clocked a 3:28.54 in the prelims and took fourth in the state with a time of 3:29.41 in the finals.

RYAN KUJAWASchool: Downers Grove SouthSport: Boys divingPlace: 4thFinish: Kujawa ran away with the sectional title with a score of 513.45 (winning by more than 40 points), and he kept up his strong postseason at the state meet last winter. In fourth place with 292 points after the preliminary round of dives, the then-junior kept that positioning in the finals and brought home a state medal with 397.85 points.

WILLIE ANAYASchool: Downers Grove SouthSport: WrestlingPlace: 4thFinish: In his senior season, Anaya had just one blemish on his record entering the state tournament, and kept on winning with

a regional title and second-place showing at the sectional (the sectional loss was 3-2 in overtime of the championship match). Anaya advanced to the 160-pound semifinals at the Class 3A state meet (falling to the eventual champ) and placed fourth.

JEREMY ULRICHSchool: Downers Grove SouthSport: Boys track and fieldPlace: 4thFinish: Ulrich placed third at the Lockport sectional last spring with a mark of 158 feet, 2 inches, but the senior was just getting started. He went 158-3 in the Class 3A state meet prelims and saved his best throw for last, going 167-4 to take fourth place in the state.

RYAN KILROYSchool: LisleSport: Wrestling

Place: 4thFinish: A sectional champ at 120 pounds, Kilroy found himself in the backdraw after a quarterfinal defeat at the Class 1A state meet. The junior then won three straight matches (one with a second-period fall) to make it to the third-place mat, where he finished fourth and capped his season with a 34-7 record.

DOWNERS GROVE SOUTHSport: Competitive cheerleadingPlace: 4thFinish: Sitting in ninth place with a score of 84.84 after the pre-liminary routine at the state meet, the Mustangs’ co-ed team shot up the standings with a flawless final routine that netted them fourth place with a score of 87.54. The final mark was bet-ter than the 86.57 that led South to a second-place finish in the sectional competition.

Boys basketballBOLINGBROOKJust seconds into a Dec. 18 game against district-rival Romeoville, Ben Moore got the ball under the basket and converted an uncontested layup.That was about the extent of the work the Bolingbrook senior put in for the night. Moore was relegated to cheerleader duty as the Raiders jumped out to a 21-3 lead early in the second quar-ter on the way to a 64-34 win over the Spartans.“We know Romeoville is a good team so we were preparing hard in practice, but we came out fast and we were able to play everybody, so that was a good thing,” Moore said.Moore’s night ended early in the second quarter with four points. Starters Prentiss Nixon (eight

points) and Kenny Williams (four points) also rode the bench much of the night, and the Bolingbrook reserved picked up the slack as the Raiders improved to 6-2 overall. Gage Davis led four Bolingbrook players in double figures with 12 points. Johnathan Boatright scored 11 and Julian Torres and Josh Dillingham had 10 apiece.“The bench did a great job,” Moore said. “They’ve been working hard in practice and they deserved to play, and they played hard.”Moore saw more action as the Raiders topped host Glenbard West 68-53 Dec. 20. Moore had 18 points, 15 rebounds and four blocks as Bolingbrook improved to 7-2 ahead of an early wake-up call the day after Christmas to play in the McDipper tournament.“Right off the bat we have King Dec. 26 at 9 a.m.,” head coach Rob Brost said. “Our

bus is going to leave at 7 a.m. the day after Christmas, so we have to get ready to face a good ball club in one of several games that will be a good challenge for us.”

DOWNERS GROVE NORTHThe Trojans continued their strong run at the Addison Trail Pre-Holiday tournament Dec. 19 with a 62-43 win over St. Francis de Sales. North, which improved to 8-5 overall with the win, was set to finish up tournament play Dec. 21 against Addison Trail then travel to Oak Park-River Forest Dec. 22 before taking an extended break that runs into the new year.

Girls basketballDOWNERS GROVE SOUTHA sluggish offense led to a 45-22 loss to host

Glenbard South Dec. 20 in Glen Ellyn. Kirsten Zemke scored eight points and Claire Hardy, Brittany Dietz and Nicole Janowiak scored four points each as South fell to 6-4 overall before facing Plainfield Central (Dec. 22) and Aurora Central Catholic (4 p.m. Dec. 27) at the Oswego East Holiday Classic tournament.

BENETDeKalb edged Benet in a non-conference game earlier this month and did so again in a semifinal game of the Benet/Naperville North tournament Dec. 20 in Lisle. The Barbs won 50-48. Emily Schramek scored a game-high 20 points for the Redwings and Christen Prasse added 12, but it wasn’t enough for the Redwings who fell to 10-6 going into the tour-nament’s third-place game Dec. 21 vs. Geneva.

The new ATS wouldbe a huge shock if wehadn’t already been

conditioned by its biggerbrother, the CTS. Both ofthese talented rear-wheel-drive sedans are the resultof Cadillac’s having con-tracted Nurburgring Syn-drome. The ‘Ring is thatfamously complex 12.94-mile road-racing coursedeep in the woods of east-ern Germany where man-ufacturers refine theirperformance cars. Withbumps, hills, 73 cornersand straights long enoughto let the big dogs runclose to 200 mph, the‘Ring is much more like anultimate country roadthan a modern racetracklaid out for TV coverage.Carmakers use the ‘Ring

as a field laboratory, aplace to see whether thecomputer simulations arecorrect. A few years ago,even Cadillac began flog-ging its developmentmules around those 73corners and 13 miles. Thefirst ‘Ring-born Cadillacwas the almost-outrageousCTS, which we called thebest American-made dri-ver’s car ever. The smaller,lighter, more nimble ATSis better yet.Cadillac offers the ATS

in four styles - Luxury,Performance, Premiumand standard - with a 202-horsepower 4-cylnder en-gine, a 272-horsepowerturbocharged 4-cylinder ora V6 rated at 321 horse-power. A standard ATSstarts at $34,000. Our testcar, an all-wheel-drive V-6Luxury with $3,000 in op-tions atop an already well-

stuffed toy chest, listed for$46,980. A comparableBMW 335i would be thou-sands more, but slightlyless powerful.It’s clear that Cadillac

put the BMW up on apedestal and said to its en-gineers, “Here’s your tar-get.” In size, weight,balance, suspension, ac-cessories, comfort and per-formance, the two comewithin whiskers of eachother. What’s astonishing,though, is that this ATSfeels crisper and more ag-gressive than any 3-Series

short of the $70,000 M3 -even with a 6-speed auto-matic as the only trans-mission option.Like many automatics,

this one can be shiftedmanually with the stick orpaddles on the wheel. Un-like many automatics, thisone never seems to be inthe wrong gear and nevergets flustered under aheavy foot. Shifts arerapid, distinct and posi-tive. In manual mode, thetransmission lets the V-6spin to 7,000 rpm andthen patiently awaits or-ders; on its own, it willdownshift in corners formore thrust coming outthe other side.While cruising, the ATS

is quiet and composed;open the throttle and theengine growls and speedbuilds quickly. Leapfrog-ging traffic is easy and feels

unhurried. The ride is beau-tifully controlled and com-fortable, with preciseturn-in and flat, neutral cor-nering. There are three sus-pensionmodes - Touring,Sport,Winter - but it’s hardto tell them apart, especiallyas Cadillac’sMagnetic RideControl automaticallyadapts the dampers to newblacktop or old potholes.Dead-stable in a straightline, the ATS can change di-rection like a cutting horse.The steering is taut and per-fectly weighted at any speed.An ATS owner with a

season’s pass to the Nur-burgring (about $1,800 forunlimited laps on publicdays) might order theavailable high-perfor-mance Brembo brakes, butthe stock anchors are morethan powerful enough fornormal, even heavy-dutyroad use.

Dynamically, then, theATS is a star, an all-aroundplayer that could hardly beless like your daddy’s Caddy.(Let’s not evenmention thevile, hideousmid-’80sCimarron, the company’sonly previous stab at a smallcar.)What about refinement

and creature comforts?The back seats are a bittight, but everything else isvery nearly outstanding,with only hints of old-school gaudiness.

In a recent survey from theUniversity of Michigan C.S.Mott Children’s Hospital,nearly one out of every fourgrandparents said they storeprescription medicines ineasy-access places, includingdaily-dose boxes that childrencan easily open, and 18 percentsaid they store over-the-counter medicines in easily ac-cessible spots.Annually, more than 60,000

children 5 or younger aretreated in emergency depart-ments for accidental ingestionof household medicines, ac-cording to Dan Budnitz, M.D.,M.P.H., director of the Centersfor Disease Control and Pre-vention’s Medication SafetyProgram.In partnership with the

CDC’s PROTECT Initiative,the Consumer HealthcareProducts Association Educa-tional Foundation created theUp and Away and Out of Sighteducational program to helpparents, grandparents andcaregivers understand how tobest store and safeguard themedicines they use so youngchildren cannot access them.The following tips and re-

sources can help to make sureyour grandchildren are alwaysprotected:

■ Keep all medicines andvitamins in a high cabinet orother place inaccessible toyour grandchildren.

■ Keep purses, bags or coatsthat have medicines or vita-mins in them out of their reachand sight.

■ Remember to never leavemedicines or vitamins out on atable, countertop or bedsidetable where your grandchil-dren could reach them - al-ways make sure the caps arelocked and put them awayevery time they are used.

■ Set a daily reminder totake your medicines and vita-mins on your refrigerator or alocation you check on a daily

basis, since they will be safelystored out of sight.

■ Program the national Poi-son Help number, 1-800-222-1222, along with otheremergency contact numbersinto your home and cellphones, so they are available incase of an emergency.For more information and

resources, visit www.Upand-Away.org.

Explaining medicinesafety to childrenFamilies take medicines and

vitamins to feel well or stay

well. However, any kind ofmedicine or vitamin can causeharm if taken in the wrongway or by the wrong person,even medicine bought withouta prescription. It is importantfor parents, grandparents andcaregivers to teach childrenabout medicine safety to avoidaccidental ingestions:

■ Talk to children about whatmedicine is and why youmustbe the one to give it to them.

■ Never tell children medi-cine is candy to get them to takeit, even if your child does notlike to take his or her medicine.

Coffee-cancerdeath link?A study by the Ameri-

can Cancer Society hasfound that people whodrink four or more cupsof caffeinated coffeehave half the risk ofdying of throat ormouth cancer thanpeople who drink lessor no coffee have.Researchers believe

that the antioxidantsand polyphenols foundin coffee, not the caf-feine, reduce thegrowth and develop-ment of mouth andthroat cancers. Thebiggest risk factors fordeveloping these can-cers are tobacco and al-cohol use, but HPVinfection has become agreater risk factor inthe past 30 years.In a press statement,

lead study author JanetHildebrand cautions,“We are not recom-mending people alldrink four cups of cof-fee a day. This is just alittle bit of good newsfor those of us whoenjoy coffee.”The study found that

the link between drink-ing decaf coffee anddying of throat or mouthcancer was insignificantand the link for tea wasnon-existant.
