DoIwI,IAN I Pioneer Press For a franchise whose last i World Series championship oc- curred when Teddy Roosevelt resided in the White House, there have been many rebuilding plans. So there might have been some cynicism when Cubs fans were told young talent was on the way and a bright future for the team was ahead. It's probably fair to say names like Joe Maddon, Jake Arrieta and Kris Bryant have stifled those suspicions, at least for the mo- ment, leaving local fans and busi- ness owners rejoicing. Now finishinghis 11th season as the Cubs TV play-by-play man, Glencoe resident Len Kasper en- dured some rough nights from 2010-14 when the team averaged 69.2 wins a season.

. - - . - - CHICAGO NOW CIIICAGOLAND ThLATRE DIRECTORY 16 BUSINESS Niles bike shop to participate Iin Chicago bikeexpo BY LEE V. GAINES Pioneer Press

Joe Reichert purchased Amling's Cycle in Nues in 1999 with one goal in mind: to popularize recumbent bicycles. Sixteen years later, Reichert is still in business and his shop will be one of the largest exhibitors at the inaugural Chi- cagoland Unconventional Bike Expo, or CUBE, next weekend in Tinley Park. Julie Keating, a long-time employee and friend of Reichert's,said she organized the three-day event along with a board of advisers after she learned that the fourth annual Recumbent Cycle-Con would be moving from Chicago to Cincinnati. "We just said we had to do a show in Chicago," Keating said. Recumbent bicycles and tricycles, which place the rider in a reclined, laid back position, will be featured promi- nently at the coming expo, but Keating said other "unconventional" bicycles, including electrical bicycles, fat tire bicycles, tandem bicycles and unicycles, will also be on display, available for a test ride and for sale at the event. Reichert discovered the world of uncon- ventional bicycling - specifically recum- AMUNG CYCLE bent bicycling - in the 1990s after he Amling's Cycle,8140N.

Somewhere on your autumn bucket list are the words, "gx to a pumpkin farm," probably falling between "get a pumpkin spice latte" and "rake the leaves into a pile and jump into it." Because, priorities. Most area pumpkin farms specialize in all forms of fall fun, including corn mazes, hayrides, petting zoos, concessions, kiddie rides, a haunted barn and of course, pumpkin patches. Here's a roundup of area farms that are offering fall pumpkin adventures.

L BETH ENGELMAN Mommy on a Shoestring

This Halloween, give friends and family something to think about with clever cos- tumes that celebrate the English language. Most of these costumes are easy and in- expensive to put together, requiring little more than T-shirts, fabric markers, Duck Tape and a few items from the dollar store. The hard part is coming up with a costume idea that will keep people guessing. Here are some tips to get you started. Compound Words Compound words can become great costumes, especially when the two smaller words can be expressed visually. For exam- ple a "breadstick" costume might be a BETH ENGELMAN/PIONEEP PRESS PHOTOS T-shirt covered with bread and pants cov- Costume1:Caroline SultzofGlenview Costume2:Charlotte LeahyofWilrnette Costume3:Bryson LeahyofWilmette ered with sticks. "Moonlight" can simply be a T-shirt with a hand drawn picture of the moon and several glow-stick necklaces and bracelets. Other compound word costumes include "handbag:' "rainbow' and if your name is Mark, consider going as a "book- mark." Common Terms You'd be surprised how many words quickly change meanings once paired together. For instance "deviled eggs' "holy cow:' and "puppy love." To make a "deviled egg," use fabric markers to draw an egg on a T-shirt and pair it with devil horns, tail and pitchfork. Pair an angel halo and a T-shirt covered with black cowlike splotches to make a "holy cow" costume and puppy love requires little more than floppy ears, a brown nose and a T-shirt decorated with hearts. Idioms Coming up with idiom costumes is not only fun but it's a great way to teach kids Costume4:Vincent DiFioreofGlenview Costume5:Brannon MoranofGlenview Costume6:Ellery MoranofGlenview about figurative speech.

Newswise LEXINGTON, Ky. -bwe make people healthier by tricking the brain into thinking broccoli tastes like chocolate? A group of internationally acclaimed chefs, bench neurosci- entists, food scientists and clinical neurologists are confident they can. A new science called neuro- gastronomy explores brain and behavior in the context of food. According to Dan Han, a co- founder ofthe International Society ofNeurogastronomy, this isn't about re-engineering food per se but re-engineering the brain into perceiving food differ- ently. "The potential applications for this are extensive;' said Han. "Just about eveiybody knows someone who's had cancer, Parkinson's disease, stroke, Alzheimer's dis- ease, epilepsy or some other neurological impairment, and these patients usually have al- tered sense of smell or taste as a result.

Director Wes Ball's feature film debut delivered the first in author James Dashner's tril- "ENORMOUSLY ENTERTAINING ogy (he wrote two prequels as well) with an earnest, no- nonsense commitment to the protagonist's waking night- mare. Ball's workmanlike handling of the second in the trilogy, "The Scorch Trlals' proves mainly that he can keep a franchise from running completely off the rails when the tracks have been laid perilously near a swamp of "dys-lit" cliches. ...GORGEOUSLY PRFORMED" - Michael Phillips

Night Shyamalan's clever only slightly scary horror film, 15-year-old budding documentary filmmaker Becca (Olivia DeJonge) and her 13-year-old wanna-be rapper brother, Tyler o (Ed Oxenbould), are going to visit their grandparents, whom they've never seen. Grandfather (Peter McRobbie) and Nana (Deanna Dunagan) have invited the children to stay for a week at their Isolated farm. Of course, Grandfather and Nana turn out to be as creepy as midnight in a graveyard. "The Visit" fits into the tiresome found-footage trend, but Shya- malan, who also wrote the script, unexpectedly injects it all with a wily sense of humor that works. - Cary Darling 9 ADAPTED & DIRECTED BY +

Boasting a screenplay by Tyger Williams that never fails to telegraph its every move, David M. Rosenthal's film is a TOM WAITS + PILOBOLUS cheap "Fatal Attraction" knockoff, complete with a subplot involving the potentially dire & KATHLEEN BRENNAN MATTKENT fate of Lathan's beloved pet. No bunnies wind up being boiled, but the rest of this sec- ond-rate genre effort is a strictly by-the-books affair. Despite an appealing trio of leads, it seems likely to entice only those who thirst for thriller cliches. Nick Schager NOW PLAYING
