a Dist 219's refeecndum is notapproved in the Mac 16 PrimarylPlecflon it could necessitate culs

in both e ular activities andin the cusncuhrm itself, according toKaren Bednarz, Public RelationsDirector for the District.

At their next meeting, Feb.23Nues North at 7:45 p.m., theDistrict's Boarel will discuss pro-posed cuts.that would have to beimplanted if the relineiidwn thils.Those culs include combining thesports programs from the Nues Westand Nitra North into one district-wide program.

"It would be very unibetunate forif the District had to combine theprograms," said Bednar "It wouldmean less spots for student athletes.We've even considered alternativessuch as the elimination of freshmenand junior varsity teams."

The Disinct is also consideringcuss in their euniculurn. Oste pro-posai is to limit students to five class-es and a physical education class

'That would basically limit stri-dents to their cois requirements forgraduation," said Bednarz "lt wouldprevent them from taking manyelective classes which would be ter-rible bseaiice this is the time in theirlives when they decide what it isthey want to do."

TIse referendum asks voters toapprove a tax increase of 23 centsper 100 dollars 'of EqualizedAssessed Valuation (EAV). TheEAV of the average home irs theDistrict is $294,000 so the averagetax bill would increase by $108.

Budgeting in the red since 1998has required the District to use up its

reserve funds. According toBednarz, the District's funds will bedepleted if the referendum doesn'tpass, necessitating some of the pro-posed cuts. Among the causes citedfor ils budget woes are the propertytax cap, unfunded stale and federalmandates, property tax appeals,growth in student enrollment,increased security costs, and di-amat-ic increases in the cost of health carefor employees.

The problem isn't unique to 219.According to Bednarz, 78 percent ofillinois schools are operating in theseL Norwfflthisreferesldutflefldallof theDistsiet's financial problema.

"Even this referendum wouldonly hold the line," said Bednarz. "Itwill only keep us afloat fer a fewyea's because of the continuingproblems than tax appeals, propertytax caps, and o41 binders. Vsflsnyou see all of this, you realize some-hing's wrung."

unusual look of the new$20bill may seem odd tosome, but it's an attempt by

the U.S. Government to foil a newbreed of forgety Forensic DocumentExaminer Jim Hayes, whose ParkRidge office ispaPmusewn and paitlaboratoTy, says initie olddays foig-ers needed a print shop to do theirdirty work. "Now you can havesome kid in the back of a van withsome fairly inexpensive printere andcome up with a very good likenessof our currency." Hayes, a fonnerChicago police . officer, has spentclose to 30 years examining hand-witing samples and documents of a

questionable nature. It's a profes-sion that's not found on evesy streetcomer, and for years was handedfrom one expert to another throuajitraining and apprenticeship.

"1 like to say it's somewhat diviue-

ly ired, " said Haye& "The origi-nal document examiners mostlywere self taught. l'hey were masterpenmen. It was mostly a mentoringsituation."

This business came to Hayesthrough a long line of expeils thathave been called on to authenticatehandwiiting and docwnents in somewell-known cases.

Dave Purtell, Hayes's immediatepredecessor, was Called on to exam-inc the writing of Lee HarveyOswald by the Senate SelectCommittee on Assassinations.Beneath the glass top of Hayes's

.

desk is a copy ofthe ransom tiote leftby the kidnapper's of CharlesLindbergh's baby. Atop the book-shelf is a chart bearing four signa-tures of môbster AI Capone. Threeare genuine, one is not. They werepart ofthe government's income taxcase againttCapone, and were ana-lyzeil by Herbert J. Walter, wlw pm-ceded Pudel! and opened theChicago office sometime around1930. Hayes himself worked onpostions of the Tylésiol Poisoningextoition letter.

"What we do has nothing to do

with your pereonalit)" says Hayes."We açhsaily study the indimovements of the handwriting.Thàre's probably 40 some chamcter-haies such as size, line qua1it pro-pothonofleftei that you use to iden-tiftja particular signature. Then youcompare it with other known stan-dards to see ifall ofthose character-haies arethere."

Rayes says handwriting still rep-resents the majority of the casesbrought ht He examines documentifor alterations, obliterations, and todetermine the sequence of theentries. Many of the documents aremedical in nature. Even a blankpiece ofpaper can reveal secrets.

"What we use are the latentimages that you get from indents-tion. When you write on a top sheetofpaper them's also indentations onthe sheets underneath it." Throughthe use ofan Electrostatic DetectionApparatus, those invisible indents-tions can suddenly appear as writtenwonis, often showing misalignmentor later enti)' than claimed.

'There's a number ofother thingsthat we look at We look at the inkcharaéteristics. Are they the saine ordifferent? Not evesybody alwayspicks up the same pen."

Other tools can reveal differencesin two black inks that to the nakedeye look the same. Tpewriter keysand letter bails can show distinctivewear and tear. Even documentsmade on modern printers can beexamined and revealed as falsethrough new technology.

"Your whole life is on a piece ofpaper," said Hayes. "From a birthcertificate to a death certificate,there are insurancé documents,wills, mortgages and checks.Document examination has beenused in our courts for a hundredyeais, in eves)' court that we have.Except for a vei' few cases, whatwe've found has been credible,accurate and useflil to the courts. Idrink that's a pretty important scorecard." What's more, Hayes says it'snot a dulljob. "You get a puxale andyou get to figure out what happened.It's kind of neat."

OpinionDear Editor,

In regards to your 2/5/04 article in the Morton Grove Bugle, "MCCSettlement may be near"; t believe your headline is overly presunip-tuous. Without hearing all sides ofthe dispute, how can a settlementbe reached? I am sure Mr. Kaiseruddin would prefer a closed-doorsecret negotiation that would allow him to sign on the dotted linenow rather than the results of the open meetings and the legal dcci-sion reached by the Morton Grove village board last year. That thevillage is now conducting closed-door meetings mediated by the fed-eral government to the exclusion ofthe neighborhood is ridiculous, Ido believe it proves the neighborhood's point; that selective treat-ment is being given to the MCC while-the neighborhood affected suf-fers. Whose idea ofjustice is this?

Safety Barricades Returnto Park Ridge CrosSwalksBY MIKE [email protected]

e City Council chose safetyover liability Monday whenthey passed an expression of

suppoll for an administrative drei-sion that reInstates the use of a-framebarriers at crosswalks throughout thecity. In supporting this, the citybelieves it will improve the safety ofarea children despite the increasedliability at stake.

The issue arose when the cityreceived a letter from the IllinoisDepaitment of Transportation(IDOl') on Jan. 26 informing the citythat the halliers would need to beremoved due to the fbct they were atrisk of being struck and becomingprojectiles. hi the opinion of IDOT,having The bathers in the street cre-ates more of a danger than the lackofspeed warnings for drivers.

The council disa smi thisfinding and believed thatthe reduced

caused by the barriers wmildhelp prevent injury to crossingschool children. The barriers havepmved effective at slowing trafficand increasing the safety at the crosswalks.

"Speed kills. We've heard all

RKthose kind of things growing up,"AId. Michael Tinaglia (ist) said."lt's important to consider theimportance of slowing these vehi-cies down."

The decision to reinstate the barri-cades in opposition to DOT policywill increase the liability taken on bythe city. Inthe case that abarricade ishit by a car and thrown into a pedes-trias the city opens itself up to beliable for that injuiy.Despite this risk the aldermen votedto reinstate the barricades effectiveimmediately.

"By taking these signs down weput our children at risk" Aid. RexParker (6th) said. Ithink it is betterto take the risk ofbeing sued ratherthan put our children in danger."

Multiple citizens from the rom-muisity came out to voice their con-ceras over the removal of the barri-cades overthe pastweeks. When thecouncil voted to reinstate thecades the audience erupted intoapplause and shouts of approval.

"Without those siis, theand children would be in a signifi-cant amount of danger." CitizenMaW Ryan argued. "We believe thatthe safety and even the survival ofour children is at stake."

budget year - like at theend of your fiscal year

three things can happen: a budgetcan be in a suqlus, break even, orbe in deficit.

Ifa public budget breaks even atfiscal year-end, . the governorshave conectly anticipated all reenues and expenditures. They nei-ther took too much ofyour moneynor spent more money than yougave them. Efficient governtheñt:just the way you'd like it. Simpleenough.But, as with you, estimating thosethings correctly with accuracyover a whole year is just plainluck. Things change, especiallyprices. So the other two outcomesare much more common.

What happens when you have ayear-end surplus? You bank it.

You have a fund for retirement orrainy days - because you have todepend on you, and only you, tobe able to respond to future needs.What happens when a governmenthas a year-end surplus? Theybank it - as a Fund Surplus.Sounds like the thing to do, right?I don't think so, and here's why.

While you depend (only) onyou, government has a guaranteedsource of revenue - you. ft does-n't needto worty (except political-ly) where to find the next dollar itneeds, it gets it from you. So theright thing for a government to dowithasurplusatyearendis .. toreturn it to you. Does that hap-pen? Do pigs fly?

OK, then. What happens whenu overspend in a year? If you

have saved previously, you drawthat fund down. If you haven't apositive balance, you borrow.What happens ifa public budget isin deficit? The same. But here'sthe difference.

Your positive fund balancedraws whatever interest satisfiesyour level of risk. A governmentmust invest surplus in the safest

You make (orlose) money on your choice; agovernment only makes, but little.If you have to borrow, you payinterest at the prevailing rate foryour instrument. If a governmenthas to borrow, it pays the lowestrate (since it's - as before - totallysecured by you). So, what's theproblem, you ask? They're doingit right.

Consider what happens when agovernment has a $1 surplus. Ithas taken $1 more from you than itneeded to. It invests your $1 at itsrate. And next year it takesS l+interest less from you than ithad to. So far, so good. Exceptthat, if you invested your $1,you'd have kept that dollar andinvested it at a certainly higherinterest rate (or spent it, that"return" having a quantitative andqualitative value to you). Nextyear, when you had to pay taxesagain, you'd redeem your invest-ment and pocket the differencebetween the government's interestand yours. You win almost cer-tainly.

But what of theretiree, the senior citizen whoremembers the world beforeradio, before television? Manyolder Americans remain intimi-dated by the computer technolo-gy that has taken over the world.But that doesn't have to be thecase. At the Morton GroveSenior Center, RJ Bruno hasbeen opening up a whole newworld for seniors with her corn-puter classes for almost a yearnow.

"I was raised by my grand-mother so I.guess this is my wayof giving back," said Bruno. "Itbridges the generation gap.Seniors are very enthusiastic.They want to learn." Bruno'sclasses stretch from basic corn-puting, like how to find theon/off switch and moving themouse, to the fine points of buy-ing a computer, the class shewas teaching last Saturdaymorning in the senior center'scomputer lab.

"I use food, or a . kitchen toteach it. We all eat," said Bruno."Your hard drive is your cabinetspace, the processing speed isyour blender. The bigger thenumber the faster the speed. Andyour RAM is your counterspace, your work space."

In fact, Bruno tries to keepthings as simple as possible."The more you give people whoare new to this, the more over-whelmed they get so I only givethem three things to remember."Thosi three things, gigahertz,gigabyte and megabyte, are thekey to understanding what yourare buying, when you purchase acomputer.

Notre Da-- suBY RYAN [email protected]

Fridaynight's conference

tussle between undefeat-ed St. Joseph's and the

Notre Dame Dons came downto a defensive battle right fromthe opening tipoff. lt wasanother tough loss for theDons as they fell 47-43,falling to 8-12 and 4-5 in con-ference play. Both teamscame out of the gates flat asthey combined to go l-Il ontheir first 12 shots. It wasn'tuntil Ryan Corliss(9 points)passed to Frank Pucher for abucket down low and three-point play, three minutes intothe game, the first points werescored.

The Dons benefited from theabsence of guard TonyFreeman(17 points), who satout most of the first quarterdue to missing the team busalong with two other players.Ironically, it was Freeman whomade two big shots with undertwo minutes left in the fourthquarter to propel the Chargerson to victory. One was a threefrom the left side and the othera force shot that somehowfound its way in the hoop,despite the suffocating defenseapplied by Corliss. The lastthree shots put the Chargersahead 44-43 with 0:12 secondremaining.

"How he made that shot withCorliss in his face I will neverknow. That was ludicrous.That's what makes him one ofthe best players in the area andin our conference," said coachDennis Zelasko.

The Dons dominated thefirst quarter on the defensiveside of the ball, forcing toughshots and aggressive man-to-man defense. Coach GenePingatore's team finally got onthe scoreboard with i :25 leftin the first quarter on a RonWhIte free throw. Before thatpoint, the Chargers had mtssedlo consecutive shots andturned the ball over four timesin a sloppy seven minuteoffensive display. GuardTravis Wilson of St. Joseph htta jumper at the buzzer to givethem their fifth point of thegame in a 6-5 first period.lt was more of the same in thesecond quarter of action.Notre Dame, led by juniorguard Jovaughn Mixon(l5points) and Tom Cirone, set upteammates for good looks butthe shoots would not fall.They shot 3-7 from the field,the last.field goal being a threepointer by Mixon that extend-ed the low-scoring affair to13-9 in favor ofthe Dons.

Sjesta few minuten on the

easy to discover Dalessandm is asmuch a "people person" as theycome.

He doesn't deny it either.'Personal service: there's no sub-

subte thr it," he quipslt's something the 55-year-old is

proud of.'We're a highly personal ornee,"

Dalesaandro says of CoachlightRealty IncJGMAC, the real estatecompany he founded in NOes 30yesia ago this April.

"1f you come here and say you'relooking to purehase s house, not onlyare you going to get PatrickDalessandm and his 32 yeses of sealestate experience, but you are, goingto get his personal service.

"We're going to sit down and talk.We'll look through the listings. Butthen we'll get out go in my car andgo see pmperties. We aie not going toshow you a picture on the computerand say 'You should buy this ¡super-ty. Look at the nice color picture."

It's a little bit of a mistake thatDalessandro even wound up in thereal estate business.

Upon uadon Dalessandro gota job teaching at Maine West HighSchool. He got laid off a year laterand became an eleinentasy schoolteacher at St. Juliana School inChicago's Edison Park neighbor-hood.

A childhood friend whose fatherowned a real estate business onChicago's northwest side is responsi-bic for Daleasandro's transition fineneducation to real estate.

Business BriefsArea home values continue to climb

The value of houses and condominiums increased again inNiles, Morton Grove, and Park Ridge according to Çalkro aSsCatino Realty ofNiles. Real Estate values rose to an alt timehigh as this area continues to be popular with home buyers.

The following are average increases in selling prices ofhouses and condominiums sold through real estate bffices in2003.

Niles: Houses, +9.9 %, Condos, +8.4%Park Ridge: Houses, + 12.4%, Condos, +6.8%Morton Grove: Houses, + 6.8%, Condos, +2.9%Callero & Catino had an all-time record year of sales, -

recording a 3 1 percent increase in sales volume comparedwith 2002.

Joint Tenancy: Simple but problematic,. by Chester Frzybylo

oint tenancy, two or more individuals hold tille.,- together. M the teath ofajoint tenant, the property auto-

. matically re-vests in the remaining joint tenancy, thus -

avoiding probate. This is a simple solution, but it invitesmany problems.

Joint tenancy does not allow a married couple to utilize the"applicable exclusion amount" ofthe first spouse to die. Theapplicable exclusion amount is the amount each indivudualcan pasa free from estate tax at death. Ifall assets are in jointtenancy, they pass automatically to the surviving spouse andcannot be directed elsewhere to utilize the exclusion amount.Thus, at the second spouse's subsequent death, all of theproperty is subject to estate tax, less only the survivingspouse's exclusion. As a result, half of the couple's com-bined exclusion is squandered.

The creation of joint tenancies can also create frictionamong multiple heirs. Even though a parent may love andhave a harmonious relationship with all their children, thechildren may have frictional relationships with each other.The use ofjoint tenancy adds to the friction because the chil-dren's financial affairs are linked, leaving them somethingover which to fight.

If the joint tenants die together or before the si.irvivingjoint tenant can make new arrangements, a probate would be -

required. -

Finally, joint tenancy is not as flexible and does not allowcomplete control over assets during life.

Ruîining CäbleQ: Can I run a phon extensioninto another room myself?Jackie B., Philadelphia

Q: How do I bring a cable connec-tion into another part ofthe house?

Thomas L., Worcester,Mass.

A: Both these projects invo'verunning cabling into new areas ofthe house, and both are possiblewith some care and good plan-ning.Running a phone extension allowsyou to plug additional equipment,súch as a second phone,' a fa'machine Or.a computêr's modem,intò an. , existing phone liñe.(Additional phone linea must beinstalled by the telephone compa-ny.)Adding a cablejack to aroom willbring your homes exiating cable.coññectioñ into that room.hi both cases, wire or cablecjsn berun 'froth source; alòzìg the

ùisidé of the alls if possible.Make sure neitherwhe noicable.,is situated within 6 inches of anyelectrical wiring,.to prevent inter-ferenee. .

For a phone extension, locate thetelephone junction box (usually in

.the basement or a simiinr utilityarea). Measure the distancebetween the box and the roomyou're sending tile extension to,allowing for Wms or minor errors,and buy the correct amount ofphone wire.Next, mark a spotnear. the base ofthe wall in theroom-where the wire will be run,and drill a small hole just widerthan the phone wire you'll beusing.Purchase a modular phone outletjack at the home-improvementstore; thissnap-in unit is the essi-est to set up and replace if needed.Remove the casing and set thecomponents near the spot to whereyou will run wire.Nearest the junction box, stapleone end of the wire to a sturdyframe section, leaving 6-8 inchesofwire dangliñ ahead ofthe sta-pie. Do not attach it to anythingels jüst yt.String the restof thewire along the preplanned path tothe new location. Feed the wirethrough the hole you drilled in thewall earlier. Strip the end of thewire about an inch back and attachthe encased wíres'lo the modularjack's terminal screws accordingto the color code on thejack. (Any


extra wires can be tucked into thecase.)Go to the start of the wire andattach lhe encased wires to thejunction box, following the colorscheme once again. Close thejunction box. Plug a phone into thenew modularjack and check for a

,diàltone.A cable extension is even simpler:Locate where the entry cable con-fleets to the television cable andinstall a three-way splitter at thatpoint. Run cable from that area(ideally, behind the walls along théframe ifpoasible) to the new loca-don. Cut an opening in the drywallthat is l-1/2 inches wide by 3-3/4inches high. Attach the end of thecable to the back of a televisionjack (available at the hardwarestore) and attach the jack to thewall, covering the opening.HOME TIPStatic or buzzing on a phone linemay be caused by wet wires orloose connections, or the wiresmay be connected to the wrongterminals of a modular jack. Aquick check ofthe phonejack maysave a visit from the phone corn-pany's technician.Send questions or home repair tipsto Jiomeguru2OOOhounail.com,or write This Is a Hammer, e/oKing Features Weekly Service,P.O.
