Ryle High teacher tops in state By Justin B. Duke jbduke@nky.com

Halloween times

Trick or treat will be observed 6-8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 31, throughout Boone County. Residents interested in participating are asked to turn on their porch light.

Pumpkin carvings a hit at Halloween

Union resident Kyle Forbes has come to be known as the pumpkin carving master of the Hempsteade subdivision. His carvings of Frankenstein, The Joker, Ironman and other pop culture characters are as impressive as they are intricate. – LIFE, PAGE B1

Making youngsters part of the story

Kindergartners and firstgraders at Florence Elementary School got a special treat when they showed up as characters in illustrated books. They books were written by seniors from Ryle High School as part of an English class assignment. The project was a win-win for both the seniors and the young students at Florence. – SCHOOLS, PAGE A10

Will trails be a campaign issue?

Ryle High School teacher Durell “Butch” Hamm has been named Kentucky Teacher of the Year. Hamm was presented a $10,000 check and is in the running for the National Teacher of the Year award. “I’m very honored and very humbled by this whole concept,” Hamm said. Hamm was Hamm given the award at a ceremony honoring 24 finalists in Frankfort. Hamm still has trouble believing he was chosen over the other teachers, who included his colleague Ryle English teacher Cher Caldwell. “I’m still caught up in this whirlwind – that it just isn’t real,” Hamm said. Hamm is a teacher who knows his content well, and works hard to make it enjoyable for his students, said Principal Matt Turner. “He loves what he does; he loves his students,” Turner said. While he works hard on curriculum, Hamm realizes who he is teaching to, said Deputy Superintendent Pat Murray. “He knows the kids as people first,” Murray said. Hamm lived up to that billing when his first thought after accepting the award was his students. One of the prizes for the award is a paid sabbatical from award sponsor Ashland Inc. Hamm was afraid that meant he wasn’t going to be able to teach his students. “I couldn’t celebrate at first because I was thinking about my class,” Hamm said. Hamm was relieved to find that a sabbatical isn’t required and that Ashland will cover the costs of substitute teachers if he chooses just to miss the days he has to make appearances in conjunction with the award. A 24-year teaching veteran, Hamm has taught English and communication at Ryle for four years.

Fundraiser to help injured soldier By Paul McKibben pmckibben@nky.com

A fundraiser in Boone County is being planned next month to help fund a new home for the family of a Kentucky soldier who was injured while serving in Iraq. The fundraiser benefits Army Sgt. Chase Matthews of Eddyville in southwestern Kentucky who was wounded in Iraq two years ago. Homes for Our Troops, a national nonprofit organization that helps soldiers who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, is building the home for Matthews and his family. Seniors Supporting Homes for Our Troops, comprised mostly of people from Union, is organizing the local fundraiser. Union resident Kathy Oates said “because this young man is from Kentucky we decided to earmark our funds for him.” She said the Matthews

family hope to be in the house s o m e t i m e b e t w e e n Thanksgiving and Christmas. Union resident Pat Beagle, also a member of Matthews Seniors Supporting Homes for Our Troops, said the fundraiser will go to Homes for Our Troops but the local group has told the national organization that it wants its money earmarked for Matthews’ project. In 2007, Matthews was driving a Humvee when an improvised explosive device went off underneath the vehicle. Matthews was severely injured and had both of his legs amputated. Matthews tossed the first pitch June 28 at a Florence Freedom game at Champion Window Field. Some of the ticket sales were donated to Seniors Supporting

Homes for Our Troops. Beagle said the national group is doing fantastic work and wishes everyone could be helped. “I think they’re doing a terrific job. What more can we do to help those boys that come home wounded and there’s not a lot that we can do and my heart goes out to them,” she said. The event is 6 p.m. Friday, Nov. 6, at The Briarwood, 2134 Petersburg Road, Hebron. Tickets are $25 per person. The fundraiser includes a buffet dinner, door prizes and a cash bar. Numerous items will be sold at a silent auction, including two tickets for floor seats to a University of Kentucky basketball game at Rupp Arena in Lexington, four tickets to the Cincinnati Reds’ Opening Day game next year and an autographed baseball from Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan. To purchase tickets, call 3840804 or 384-3532.

Hebron residents have been getting used to driving with two roundabouts on North Bend Road. The roundabouts are at North Bend Road and Cardinal Way and at the intersection of North Bend and Graves roads in northern Boone County. Nelda Purdon lives in the Cardinal Cove subdivision where she has to use the roundabout at Cardinal Way to leave her neighborhood. On a recent afternoon, Purdon said that day it was easier to get out of her subdivision than it’s ever been because once you get

into the roundabout you have the right-of-way and the other cars have to yield. She said it’s a lot easier now turning left out of their subdivision than it was previously. The roundabouts are part of the state’s overhaul of North Bend Road. The project stretches from Litton Lane/Medical Arts Drive to Kara Lane. “Most of it should be complete by the end of this year,” said Nancy Wood, spokeswoman for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District 6, regarding the entire project. The state says roundabouts are very effective at decreasing accidents at intersections. Traffic Every Friday is Senior Day!

He said the roundabout makes getting out in the morning a lot easier and quicker. He said before the roundabout was in, you would sit there in the morning and sometimes wait five minutes to get out. A park-and-ride for motorists to park their vehicles and take a Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky bus is being added at Cardinal Way.

Trails study sent to full commission By Paul McKibben pmckibben@nky.com

The Boone County Planning Commission’s longrange planning/comprehensive plan committee on Oct. 26 approved a disclaimer for the county’s greenways and trails study. The panel voted 4-1 to move the report forward to the full planning commission which will consider it when it meets at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 4, in the Boone County Administration Building’s Fiscal Courtroom, Burlington. The committee did not include a recommendation for denial or approval. The disclaimer says that the study applies only to publicly owned land. It says “in an effort to protect private property owner rights, none of the provisions in this study shall be applied to

More on the trails, A4 privately owned land. The study will serve as a guide to advise the planning commission and the legislative units about existing and future greenways and trails on publicly owned land.” The committee’s action was the latest meeting in what has become a controversial issue. Issues that community members have about the study include the county using eminent domain to acquire land and spending money. The full commission hosted a lengthy public hearing on Oct. 7 that attracted a crowd and residents spoke. The room was somewhat packed for a committee meeting on Oct. 21 when the committee didn’t permit residents to

speak. “It’s been our members’ view that we think it’s a step in the right direction,” said Brian Miller, executive vice president of the Home Builders Association of Northern Kentucky. “However, we don’t feel that it puts the issue to rest entirely.” Miller said the disclaimer will contradict a good section of the rest of the study and the entire document needs to change. He said their concerns are that future commissions or committees five, six or 10 years down the road probably won’t understand the intention of this committee’s foresight and may disregard the disclaimer altogether. The Boone County Fiscal Court, the Union City Commission and the Florence and Walton city councils won’t vote on the study.

Delta cutting at CVG

Delta Air Lines will cut another 10 percent of flights at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport in January, resulting in its fewest flights here in at least 15 years. The Atlanta-based company said Oct. 23 it is cutting 25 flights from its daily schedule and eliminating service entirely to Charleston, S.C., Savannah, Ga., Tulsa, Okla., and Huntsville, Ala. The cuts will leave 190 daily Delta departures at CVG. The moves come after the airline slashed 13 percent of its local flying in early September. Overall, total local flying and passenger counts are down by more than half in the

past three years. Delta said the cuts are being made to preserve profitability at its CVG hub. Kentucky News Service

Boone trail debate might linger into 2010 campaign By Paul McKibben pmckibben@nky.com

Long after the Boone County Planning Commission completes its work on a trails and greenways study, the debate could still be happening. The study is one of the issues where rhetoric has flared up between Commissioner Cathy Flaig who is running against incumbent Gary Moore for judge-executive in next year’s Republican primary. Flaig is concerned about the study but Moore is calling her out on a

More on the trails, A2 vote two years ago related to it. “She votes to fund this study and now for political purposes she’s opposing the study. ... We’re dealing with two people here. There’s Commissioner Cathy Flaig and there’s candidate Cathy Flaig and this is just another example of that,” Moore said. At the June 19, 2007, Fiscal Court meeting, Flaig voted with Moore and commissioners Charlie Kenner and Terri Moore to approve the Fiscal Court’s fiscal year 2008 budget that contained money for the planning commission. The planning commission’s final budget mentions “(assisting) the county in the preparation of a greenways study.” In an e-mail to the Recorder, Flaig said she does not regret the vote “because I voted for what I trusted would be an unbi-

ased study. I am outraged to now find that taxpayers have funded what appears to be nothing more than a one-sided marketing plan promoting a project and not studying the true cost, funding issues or impact.” Judge-Executive Moore has previously said the study is not a trail project but a plan for the future for protecting greenbelts. Earlier in the week, when asked if she will talk about the trails study in the campaign, Flaig said “it depends on where this thing goes.” When asked later in the week if she will use the greenways study as an issue in next year’s campaign against Moore, Flaig said in the e-mail “taxpayers already know the differences between Judge Moore and me.” Flaig said if she were judge executive the trails study would never have happened. She said Moore could stop the study now. “Do you think that the planning commission just

Moore noted that the Fiscal Court appoints six people to the 15-member panel. The others are appointed by Florence, Walton and Union. The planning commission isn’t a department such as parks that reports directly to the judge-executive. “If you controlled all six of the county appointments, which I do not, they’re appointed by the Fiscal Court, that’s still not a majority to overturn or stop an action of the planning commission,” he said. “She knows that and again politics are getting in the way of the truth.” The planning commission will vote on the plan. But the Fiscal Court, the Florence City Council, the Union City Commission and the Walton City Council will not. Flaig acknowledged the Fiscal Court votes on board appointments.

Governor visits Cooper

By Justin B. Duke jbduke@nky.com

JUSTIN B. DUKE/STAFF

Gov. Steve Beshear discusses the new Transforming Education in Kentucky initiative with Cooper junior Jenna Waymeyer.

Gov. Steve Beshear visited Cooper High School Oct. 21 to unveil the Transforming Education Kentucky (TEK) initiative. Beshear spoke of the sweeping reforms of 1990 that got educators excited about education and led to great improvements in Kentucky education. “It is time now to re-create that enthusiasm,” Beshear said. TEK includes the creation of a 31-member task force which will explore how to improve teacher recruitment, technology use in classrooms and increased opportunities for students to earn college credit while in high school. “These folks are commit-

ted to education in this state,” Beshear said. Florence Mayor Diane Whalen is a member of that task force. “The task force I’m announcing today is going to be well represented in Northern Kentucky,” Beshear said. Whalen accepted the position on the task force because of her love for education, she said. “I got my start as a PTA mom,” Whalen said. Joining the task force is exciting because they get to help improve what’s going on in Kentucky schools, she said. While there was excitement about the new task force, Beshear did point out the struggles education faces in Kentucky. Everyone agrees that more money needs to be

invested in education, Beshear said. “This current recession will not allow that additional investment,” he said. Projections show the state may not turn around financially until 2012, and though it may be tempting to solve budget issues, funding shouldn’t be taken away from education, Beshear said. “We will never move forward tomorrow in this state if we make drastic cuts in our kids’ education today,” he said.

Free chicken is all that’s needed to pull an allnighter. Chick-fil-A opened its first Northern Kentucky location Oct. 22, but before the first dollar came in, the area gave them a warm welcome. At 6 a.m. Oct. 21, 140 people were in line to wait in line for a chance at a year’s worth of free food. At each of its openings, Chick-fil-A offers 52 vouchers for a free meal to 100 of its first customers. Campers pitch tents in the parking lot and spend the day with a DJ playing games and dancing. “It ends up being like a big tailgate,” said spokesperson Lindsay Ables. Best Buy joined in the fun by setting up televisions where campers could play video games like Madden NFL 10 and DJ Hero, which wasn’t available to the public until Oct. 27. “It’s my first time (camp-

ing out) and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed it,” said Anna Cason from Berry, Ky. Cason traveled up to Florence with Sam Pierce of Harrison County who was attending his 15th campout. “It’s more or less like taking a mini-vacation and hanging out with some buddies,” said Matt Garner of Lexington. Also joining the fun was Chick-fil-A President and COO Dan Cathy, who flew in that day from Atlanta. “I’m a party animal,” Cathy said. Chick-fil-A has a strong momentum building in Greater Cincinnati and the time was right to move into Northern Kentucky. “I would bet this is one of the most requested areas for a store,” said Operator Dustin DiChiara. DiChiara is a 13-year veteran of Chick-fil-A who’s been working at the store in the Tower Place Mall in Cincinnati. Waiting for the Florence store to open has been a long road, but as he sat with the campers, he was excited

Chick-fil-A has a strong momentum building in Greater Cincinnati and the time was right to move into Northern Kentucky. to finally get going. “Folks are genuinely super-pumped about a Chick-fil-A,” DiChiara said. The Florence store is one of 69 the company will open this year. “We passed up a lot of places,” Cathy said. Florence was chosen over locations around Chicago, Atlanta and other cities around the country, he said. Now that they have a foothold in Northern Kentucky, Chick-fil-A is looking for new locations, DiChiara said. “We’re looking at a few locations in Newport,” he said. The new Chick-fil-A is located at 4980 Houston Road in front of Meijer and is open from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday though Saturday, with breakfast until 10:30 a.m.

DO YOU WANT TO BE SAVED? (A response to an article of the same title published September 9, 2009)

It is true that God has always demanded that His word go unchanged (Deuteronomy 4:2; Proverbs 30:6; Revelation 22:18-19). To alter it in any way is to sin. This would include taking one text, a partial text, or an idea and wrapping a teaching around it, while ignoring what the rest of God’s inspired word says. All of God’s Word is inspired (2 Timothy 3:16-17) and it is by this Word that we will be judged one day when we stand before God (John 12:48). This is an appointment that we must all keep. “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad” (2 Corinthians 5:10). The Greek word for “must” in the above noted passed is “dei” which means, “it is necessary.” This same word appears numerous times in God’s word. Take for instance Acts 9:6 where Saul of Tarsus, trembling and astonished, says, “Lord, what do You want me to do?” Then the Lord said to him, “Arise and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.” So what was it that Saul had to do? Well, let us jump ahead just for a moment. Notice that Paul (Saul) wrote too Timothy and said that he had “obtained mercy” and had received the “grace of our Lord by faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.” He also said that though he considered himself to be the chief of all sinners he, “obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show all longsuffering, as a pattern to those who are going to believe on Him for everlasting life.” Now herein lies our current controversy. Many today would have you believe that belief is no more than a mental acknowledgment and acceptance of a fact. However, the inspired word here translated belief means, “to have faith in, to entrust one’s spiritual well-being to, to be committed to and put in trust with.” So the word belief includes action and obedience not merely a cognizant acceptance of a truth. So what was it that Saul had to do? Believe (have faith in)? Absolutely! “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him” (Hebrews 11:6). He did this on the road to Damascus and by his willingness to do what the Lord commanded. So he was saved, right? No. Notice that Saul goes into the city of Damascus, blinded by the light, and is three days fasting. Was Saul a penitent man? Surely having been raised a very religious zealot he spent that time fasting and in prayer. So he was then saved right? Well notice that Christ sends Ananias to speak with Saul and in Saul’s own account in Acts 22:16, “And now why are you waiting? Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.” You see Saul wasn’t saved. He still carried with him the stain and weight of his sin. Our friends who teach that all one has to do is believe run to the account of the Philippian Jailor in Acts 16:30-31, but notice they stop without looking at the following verses that say, “Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all who were in his house. And he took them the same hour of the night and washed their stripes. And immediately he and all his family were baptized.” Notice a few other verses: Acts 2:37-38 on the Day of Pentecost, Peter and the other disciples preaching the first gospel sermon were asked, “Men and brethren, what shall we do?” Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” Acts 8:12 when the people of Samaria, “believed Philip as he preached the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, both men and women were baptized.” Acts 8:37-39 when Philip had preached Jesus to the Ethiopian Eunuch, “…they came to some water. And the eunuch said, “See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?” Then Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart, you may.” And he answered and said, “I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.” So he commanded the chariot to stand still. And both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and he baptized him. Now when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch saw him no more; and he went on his way rejoicing.” You cannot find a single instance following the death, burial, resurrection and ascension of Christ where a single person is saved without being baptized! Notice a few other verses: Acts 10:48, “And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord.” Acts 18:8, “And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized.” Acts 19:5, “When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.” 1 Corinthians 12:13, “For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body…” Galatians 3:27, “For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.” 1 Peter 3:21, “The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ.” Friends, the answer to the question “What Must I Do To Be Saved” is simple. I must hear God’s word (Romans 10:17). I must believe in Christ as the only begotten Son (Hebrews 11:6). My newfound faith must lead me to repent of my sinful life (Luke 13:3). I must be willing to confess His name before men (Matthew 10:32-33). Then I must be immersed in water to have my sins washed away. At this point I come forth to live a new life, and I must continue to be obedient (Revelation 2:10) in order to be saved.

Spine center planned for Florence

Salt Festival music

Ben Pedigo of Ripley, Ohio, and Forest Utley of Rabbit Hash form the group Gunpowder Creek. They were pickin’ and grinnin’ at the annual Salt Festival Oct. 17 at Big Bone State Park.

Those consolidations already have helped the hospital cut millions of dollars in cost. For example, it will save $7 million a year by consolidating maternity centers in Edgewood, starting in November at Fort Thomas. It also has faced some controversy, such as the loss of women’s reproductive services that formerly were offered at St. Luke but are not offered now because St. Elizabeth is a Catholic hospital. While women with insurance can find the services in Ohio, they are harder to find for women without insurance or those on Meidcaid. Dubis said St. Elizabeth is using savings from the merger to invest in a sprawling electronic medical records network that eventually will cost more than

Boone to take over part of road By Paul McKibben pmckibben@nky.com

Boone County will take ownership and be responsible for the maintenance of part of a private drive. The county already owns and maintains a part of Castlewood Lane, a residential street off of Camp Ernst Road in central Boone County. County Administrator Jeff Earlywine said a majority of the residents and the developer wanted the county to consider owning and maintaining the remaining half-mile section. Part of the private street goes over

two manmade dams. Earlywine said it was determined the compaction of the soil in and around the dams didn’t quite meet the level the county would normally require in other areas where it would be asked to accept a street running across a fill area that impounded water. Earlywine said the county looked at some options with the residents and it was concluded that it would not be possible for the county to accept the private road in those back sections where they traversed across the dam. Instead, he said the county could accept the portion from the end of the

$100 million. He said it has invested $12 million so far in the former St. Luke locations. Another example of that investment is regional centers, such as the spine center. Others will include a consolidation of diabetes care at the new location off 12th Street in Covington and a skilled nursing unit at the Fort Thomas hospital. Overall, St. Elizabeth is trying to reduce a trend that has more than one-fifth of Northern Kentucky residents crossing into Cincinnati for their hospital care, and more than half of patients in some specialties.

“We’re starting to see the acceptance in the community, particularly among physicians, that these (former St. Luke locations) are good-quality hospitals,” Dubis said. But it still faces huge capital requirements. Managers at the hospital recently submitted requests for about $250 million of new spending in the next three years. One of those requests is for an $11 million, 500space parking garage, a project that St. Elizabeth will delay for a year, Dubis said. Kentucky News Service

St. Elizabeth Healthcare plans to consolidate its spine-care units into a new Spine Center at its Florence hospital. Such a move would help boost the Northern Kentucky hospital system in competing for regional patients needing acute services, and also consolidate some services at the former St. Luke Hospital locations in Fort Thomas and Florence, instead of the hub of the system in Edgewood. “It’s a service that’s been needed here for a long time,” said John Dubis, chief operating officer at St. Elizabeth, after a talk to business leaders. This month marks the first anniversary of St. Elizabeth’s acquisition of St. Luke, a deal that makes it the biggest employer in Northern Kentucky with more than 6,000 workers.

county maintenance currently up to the beginning of the first dam. The rest of the road will be a private drive. The county determined that upgrading the section it will own will cost $16,582. The developer will fund the improvements, paying the county annual payments for five years with no interest starting Dec. 1. Once the work is completed, the county will own the new section. The improvements could be done this autumn. The Boone County Fiscal Court approved the agreement at its Oct. 13 meeting. No residents spoke.

FRANKFORT – Natural gas, wind, and even algae are considered alternative energy sources, but state researchers say they probably won’t replace coal anytime soon. The director of the University of Kentucky Center for Applied Energy Research told the Interim Joint Committee on Natural Resources and Environment on Oct. 23 that he expects fossil fuel like coal to produce at least 40-50 percent of U.S. electricity for the foreseeable future. “We have a very limited set of options with renewables to produce at utility scale,” said CAER director Rodney Andrews, adding that the U.S. needs to be careful about declaring what is the best available technology. “We don’t know enough about these technologies today to say this is the best available technology, and we’re looking at an EPA regulation which declares we do know how to do that.” The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency proposed a rule last month that would allow it to regulate carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions from thousands of coal-fired power plants and other industrial plants nationwide. Some say the action could expedite passage of a climate bill in Congress. To keep coal affordable, Andrews said policymakers must find viable ways to store and use carbon dioxide produced by coal-fired power plants. “We can’t have things that con-

Injecting carbon dioxide into reservoirs beneath the earth’s surface or capturing the gas through photosynthetic processing of algae are two options for carbon dioxide capture, said Andrews. But he said reducing carbon dioxide emissions will take a multi-step approach. “EPRI (the Electric Power Research Institute) … believes it is technically feasible to reduce our emissions to the levels that we would like to, but we can’t do it with a single thing. It’s going to require a mix of almost all of our options,” including energy efficiency, renewable energy, coal carbon dioxide capture, use of electric vehicles and nuclear energy. Concerning carbon capture, Committee Co-Chair Sen. Tom Jensen, RLondon, asked Andrews if captured carbon dioxide can dissipate or escape after it is injected into the earth.

Andrews said a majority of the gas remains stored under pressure, but there is some “migration” of the gas in small quantities. Rep. Tim Moore, R-Elizabethtown, commented that humans are a point source of carbon dioxide through respiration, adding that the gas “is not a substance we should be afraid of, it is perhaps something we should manage.” Committee Co-Chair Rep. Jim Gooch, D-Providence, said the resources needed to produce “environmentally friendly” alternatives to coal need to be considered. “We heard testimony a couple months ago from our own Public Service Commission that … if you take the electricity we get from coal and you replace that with renewables, that it would take 26 percent of the nation’s total renewables just to replace what Kentucky gets from coal for electricity.” Andrews said Kentucky coal is used to produce about 5 percent of the nation’s electricity. The state produces about 2.3 percent of U.S. electricity from all sources.

Food prices in KY slightly increase in third quarter Food prices in Kentucky rose slightly in the third quarter of this year, marking the first increase in 12 months, according to Kentucky Farm Bureau Federation’s quarterly survey. Driven by a sharp increase in the price of ice cream, butter and cheese, the October survey of 40 popular grocery items showed a nearly three percent rise from July, at $105.27 compared to $102.26.

That ends a string of three consecutive quarters with a lower price average. The average has fallen, however, by about 7 percent since October 2008. The Kentucky statistics are contrary to American Farm Bureau’s recent survey involving 66 communities in 29 states. AFBF reports a slight decline since

July, plus a 10 percent drop over the past 12 months. In the Kentucky survey, the average was higher for 25 of the 40 items. The big gainers were ice cream (up by 40 cents a gallon), cheddar cheese (94 cents higher per pound) and butter (up by 23 cents a pound). Milk prices continue to fall, which is welcome news to dairy

breasts, potatoes and wheat bread. Kentucky Farm Bureau Federation has conducted the survey for four decades as a tool to reflect retail food pricing trends and their relationship to what farmers receive for their raw commodities. On average, the farmers’ share of the retail food dollar is around 19 cents.

farmers who have seen farm milk prices plunge significantly this year in response to high inventories. For October, the average on a gallon of whole milk was $2.70, as compared to $2.86 in July. (The recent national survey has milk at $2.87). Among items that fell in price during the past three months were rib-eye steak, sausage, chicken

Ryle seniors write stories for elementary students

By Justin B. Duke jbduke@nky.com

Some new readers got to be the stars of their own books. As part of an English class assignment, seniors from Ryle wrote and illustrated books for kindergartners and first-graders at Florence Elementary School. The seniors were given information about specific students like their name, interests and siblings, and the authors incorporated those elements into the stories. All the authors went to Florence Elementary to read the stories to the students. “We do a lot of writing in high school that doesn’t go anywhere,” said Ryle English teacher Jessica Jones. “This is a published work the kids get to keep.” The high school students aren’t the only ones to benefit because kindergarten and first grade are ages where reading is heavily stressed and every little advantage

helps, said first-grade teacher Vita Speagle. “They love to see their names,” Speagle said. By having stories about them, students will be more excited about reading, she said. Seeing the seniors, or “big kids” as the elementary students call them, younger students get a glimpse into the future, Speagle said. “They get to see what they’ll do when they get older,” she said. Seeing an immediate reaction to writing from its intended audience makes writing easier to enjoy, said senior Melinda Jacob. “It was really cool for him to be excited about it,” Jacob said. Jacob wrote “The Great Treehouse” for Dakota Laws. The story covered Laws’ hobby of building things and included his brother and sister. “His eyes would get really big when they were mentioned,” Jacob said.

The Boo-Grams sell for 50 cents and Michelle David, the teacher who is heading up the program, is hoping to raise enough money to sponsor two or three Haitian children for a year. Though she knows the goal is lofty, David would love to raise $3,000 and be able to sponsor an entire class. The Boo-Grams are a part of Cooper’s push for service learning, using service projects to tie in with curriculum. “We’re going to study Haiti all year,” David said. Because students can see a real-life implication to their course work, they’re excited and already planning several more fundraisers for Haitian students, she said. “They’re kind of driving it – which is the goal,” David said.

Kids who don’t always get excited about school work are eager to use their talents to help with the project, she said. “It’s bringing out passion,” said Principal Mike Wilson. Service learning brings learning to life and allows students to see how the things they’re learning in school are relevant, Wilson said. “They’re putting names, faces and projects to learning,” he said. The excitement that comes from service learning goes beyond getting students excited about school, Wilson said. “It’s bringing out what direction they want to go after high school,” he said. For example, some students may learn they have a love for helping the poor and go into social work, Wilson said. By trying new things through service learning, students learn things about themselves they never knew, he said. For more information about how to help Cooper sponsor Haitian students, contact the Cooper social studies department by calling the school at 384-5040.

Wuchner testifies for Children’s Health Initiative

Truck awarded

PROVIDED

On July 13 Shelby Wiley, Benny Rozanski and Shelby Theobald of the Conner Senior FFA were accompanied by Ryle and Gallatin County FFA to present Mike Mullins, owner of I-75 Dodge in Crittenden, with an award for sponsoring the Dodge Scholarship truck give-a-way. A special congratulation goes out to Mark Jacobson from Paris as the 2008 winner of a $35,000 Dodge 1500 Ram. The winning ticket was sold from Bourbon County FFA. The Conner FFA chapter would like to thank all of the sponsoring dealerships and every ticket buyer for helping last year’s scholarship program end as a success. You can get your tickets at Conner High School FFA, 334-4400, or through any FFA member. The ticket donation costs $5 and all earnings go toward FFA Scholarship Program. This information was provided by Lindsey Garnett.

As childhood obesity rates continue to climb throughout our commonwealth, State Rep. Addia Wuchner, R-Florence, addressed this issue and its impact on Kentucky children’s health, their future, and the cost to our state to the Interim Joint Committee on Health and Welfare. Joined by health care professionals, Wuchner, who is a registered nurse, detailed the necessity for children to include some type of physical activity in their daily routine. Recognizing that need is what inspired her to draft legislation that is designed to get children moving during their daily school routine. The Healthy Kids Act sets forth physical activity guidelines for all public elementary schools. Each individual school would be permitted flexibility to design and implement 30 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity that would be considered part of the instructional day. The activity could be incorporated into the classroom, during

structured recess, or by other means. “If we want to empower and encourage individuals to make good health decisions, we have to start with the youngest generation,” said Wuchner. “The number of overweight and obese children should be an alarming crisis to all of us. The health of the children of this commonwealth and our vision of moving Kentucky forward requires that we unite our efforts to address the critical issues related to overweight, obesity and physical activity.” Dr. Baretta Casey, professor at University of Kentucky’s Center for Excellence in Rural Health, testi-

fied alongside Wuchner and stated, “As a physician in rural Eastern Kentucky, I care for many children who are obese and who have diabetes or other ailments due to a lack of exercise and poor diet. The schools could help us in our effort to get children moving. Physical activity makes for happier and healthier children.” One quarter of Kentucky’s preschool children and almost half of our state’s sixth-grade students are overweight. Kentucky ranks close to the bottom in most leading health indicators with high rates of heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. With childhood obesity most commonly leading to

adult obesity, the health of our next generation looks bleak. Wuchner believes we can no longer sit idly by and added, “We have studied this issue enough to know our children deserve better treatment, and the time has come to commit ourselves to address this epidemic and improve the quality of life for the next generation of Kentuckians. This legislation does not replace good parenting and healthy decision making, but ensures during the six to eight hours our children are engaged in learning, they are provided the daily opportunity for moderate to vigorous physical activity.”

COLLEGE CORNER Workforce Solutions Division of Gateway Community and Technical College will be facilitating a Lean Manufacturing Simulation Nov. 4 which they are inviting all companies to register to attend. Lean manufacturing is a philosophy of the efficient use of resources, which when implemented, shorten lead-time and decrease costs by eliminating non value-added waste. All simulation partici-

pants will perform roles in a simulated factory setting throughout several intensive production rounds, which will provide participants the opportunity to see, feel and measure the effects of different lean manufacturing principles. The lean simulation will help participants achieve an understanding of the eight types of waste, the difference between a push-andpull manufacturing system, along with the impact it has upon a production line and finally, how to make effective use of employee time

made available through waste reduction. The GCTC division of Workforce Solutions specializes in continuing employee training. The lean simulation will provide participants with new skills that will come in use in the manufacturing sector, or participants with ties to the manufacturing sector. Workforce Solutions invites companies to attend Nov. 4 at 7:30 a.m. The event will be held at Receptions, located in Erlanger. Contact Barry Wilhite at 442-1145.

Report: Most ready for kindergarten United Way of Greater Cincinnati Success By 6 has released the second edition

of its “Successful Starts” report, which pinpoints the progress our youngest children are or are not making on a broad range of indicators tied to their well-being, development and kindergarten readiness. The report covers results on 15 indicators that show more children are prepared for kindergarten, a top priority for United Way. Positive indicators include an increased commitment to lead screening, reducing the risk of poisoning and the likelihood of early intervention for exposed children. Findings also show quality home visitation for parents of very young children is leading to results, but too few families are accessing the services before their children turn 3 years old. Other indicators show impressive growth in the number of early childhood programs taking part in Ohio's quality rating system, Step Up To Quality, and improvements in literacy readiness for incoming kindergarteners in Northern Kentucky and Southwest Ohio. The region continues to experience high rates of low birth weight babies, putting too many children at risk of developmental delays and other health concerns. Greater Cincinnati's infant mortality rate is also higher than the nation's average. The report says this is an indication that young children in our region are not getting optimal health care. Declining rates of prenatal care also show a critical need for education and an

expansion of health services for pregnant women. The report was presented Oct. 13 to more than 125 people, including business leaders, educators, agency partners, investors and early childhood advocates and supporters. Presenters included Joan Lombardi, a deputy assistant secretary for the Administration for Children and Families at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Jim Zimmerman, founding chair of Success By 6 Vickie Gluckman, Hamilton County Success By 6 Executive Committee chair, Rob Reifsnyder, United Way of Greater Cincinnati president and CEO and Stephanie Byrd, Success By 6 executive director. “The economic downturn of the past year or so is having a significant impact on the families that need resources most,” said Byrd. “We're working to help fill some of the gaps made by state and local budget cuts, because closing programs and cutting back on professional development could reverse our progress in improving early childhood education and kindergarten readiness.” Success By 6 supports work tied to two proven strategies, including increasing access to best practice home visitation and supporting participation in state-sponsored quality rating systems. The latter of those strategies helps increase access to high quality childhood education programs. Success By 6 also works closely with many local school districts and

programs across the region to assess outcomes and implement strategies that will result in adequately preparing more children for kindergarten. “Continued support from United Way will expand access to home visitation and improve the quality of early childhood education,” says Gluckman. “Regardless of what happens to the economy, we will continue to champion policies that advocate for maintaining basic services for children and families, as well as inform decision makers about the work being done in Greater Cincinnati and leverage resources to develop additional funding to support these efforts.” Successful Starts, Second Edition is a collaborative effort among the Hamilton County, Northern Kentucky, Middletown area and Eastern area Success By 6 teams. The effort included data collection support from the Child Policy Research Center, Hamilton County Help Me Grow, Every Child Succeeds, Hamilton County Job & Family Services, St. Elizabeth Healthcare, Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services, Ohio Chapter March of Dimes, Northern Kentucky Health Department, Community Solutions, United Way of Greater Cincinnati, Every Child Succeeds, 4C for Children and Strive.

Fixing shotgun maintenance problems with an oiled cotton cloth before doing anything else after hunting, especially in the relatively hot weather of September. “Body oils or body salts from sweat are corrosive agents to metal,” Marraccini explained. “If you don’t take care of the gun right after you use it, then it will likely rust. It doesn’t take long for those corrosive agents to weaken the bluing on your gun.” Marraccini, who builds pioneer era black powder rifles by hand, explains the bluing that protects the metal surfaces of a shotgun is simply controlled rust. “In the old flintlock rifle days, gunsmiths hung newly made barrels in a moist, warm environment and let them get a light coating of rust,” he said. “Then, they wiped them down with oil and that was their protective coating.” If a gun is put up in haste like mine and rust develops, options still exist. “All is not lost,” Marraccini said. “A lot of times it’s minor. You can take a cotton gun cloth and apply gun oil to it and buff the rust lightly. If that doesn’t do it, take some 0000 steel wool,

It’s like an old friend and I’ve taken scores of doves, quail and rabbits with it since. apply gun oil and buff. You must go very light or you can take the bluing off with the steel wool.” When the rust penetrates the protective coating to the bare metal, a pit develops. “If the steel wool and oil don’t work, try some of the cold blue products on the market,” Marraccini said. “The cold blue is similar to fixing a scratch on the hood of your car with touch-up paint. It is the same color, but you can still see it.” Deep pits in the gun metal most likely need professional help from a gunsmith. “The gunsmith will do a complete re-bluing,” Marraccini said. “A re-blued gun looks pretty, but it actually hurts the value of the gun and you can still tell it is not the original bluing.” A shotgun taken into the field with any regularity will eventually acquire some

dents and scratches on the wood of the stock. “Some scratches will make it an heirloom, each one has a good story and memory of a nice time afield,” Marraccini said. Scratch repair depends on a couple of factors. “Repairing a scratch depends on the severity of the scratch and the type of finish on the wood,” Marraccini said. “A really high gloss finish shows everything, but you can get away with more with the muted hand-rubbed finishes.” Gun stock oils available at gun stores are made for scratch repair, but deep scratches may require sanding the stock down to bare wood and refinishing. A dent in the wood may be lifted by steam. “Fold an old cotton T-shirt over two or three times and get it damp,” Marraccini said. “Place the dampened teeshirt over the dent and run

the tip of a hot iron over it a few times. You want to force steam into the crumpled wood fibers and lift them up.” If you do like I did and make a mistake in maintenance, it is not the end of the world. Try some of these methods to remove rust or repair a stock, but keep in mind they may not return the shotgun to the way it looked out of the box. “There are memories of Dad or Granddad with each little bit of wear and tear,” Marraccini said. “If you want a gun that is going to stay perfect, put in a shadow box and hang it on the wall.” Author Lee McClellan is an award-winning associate editor for Kentucky Afield magazine, the official publication of the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. He is a life-long hunter and angler, with a passion for smallmouth bass fishing. NKY.com/community

mer, I drove to a friend’s farm to shoot some clay pigeons to bone up for the dove opening. I slid my hand in the gun case and felt something rough. I pulled the gun out of the case and a flash of pumpkin greeted my eyes; a coating of orange dust covered much of the receiver and barrel. My haste cost me the bluing of my muchloved 20-gauge. I felt ill. I maintained that gun meticulously, and just the one instance of neglect bit me. “If you have $300 in the gun or $3,000, you’ve still invested a lot of money,” said Mark Marraccini, a licensed gun dealer and executive staff advisor for the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. “Some wear and tear on a shotgun has some good memories attached. But, there is a difference between a little scratch from crossing a fence and neglect. Neglect is neglect and there are no good memories attached to that.” Wipe your gun down

I hunted doves with some friends the first September after I got married. The sun burned down on us in the field and sweated poured from me down and onto my beloved 20-gauge, a Remington 870 Wingmaster LW Magnum. I bought it in 1993 after shouldering it and giving it back to the store clerk a few dozen times over the course of several weeks. My reluctance stemmed from the gun costing $150 more than a lower-end Remington pump, but I finally succumbed. It’s a relatively inexpensive pump, not a pricey over-and-under or high-end semi-automatic, but no gun I’ve shouldered since feels as good as that one. It’s like an old friend and I’ve taken scores of doves, quail and rabbits with it since. After the dove hunt, I cleaned the inside of the barrel in haste, stuck the gun in a case and shoved it in a closet. My wife and I were in the process of buying our first home and I didn’t take the time to care for my favorite shotgun. Late the following sum-

Raiders, Cougars win district finales By James Weber jweber@nky.com

The Ryle High School football team won four home playoff games on its way to the state championship game in 2006. The Raiders were the two seed in their district that year. This year, the Raiders clinched the same seed in the local 6A district, which will give them at least one home game in the first round. “In ’06,” said Ryle coach Bryson Warner, “we were a two-seed and wound up with four home playoff game. We’d love that (this time). We love this place, no question.” Ryle defended its home turf Oct. 23 by routing Boone County 48-7 in Union. The Raiders (7-2, 41) clinched the No. 2 seed in the 6A district. The Raiders will host Pleasure Ridge Park in a first-round playoff game Nov. 6 or 7. Ryle finishes the regular season at Highlands Oct. 30. Boone (3-6) will play at Dixie Heights Oct. 30. Their first playoff game will be at powerhouse Louisville St. Xavier Nov. 6 or 7. Ryle led 27-0 at halftime and Boone didn’t score until late in the game on a oneyard run by Jordan Oppenheimer. Travis Elliott rushed for 147 yards and two touchdowns. Ryle had 375 yards offense in the game. Defense set the tone for Ryle early. Court Mace blocked a punt and Tanner Teepen recovered it for a touchdown. Later in the first quarter, Luke Boggs returned an interception 42 yards for a score. Conner Hempel threw TD passes to Trenton Fugate and Kiefer Eubank, and Elliott’s second TD from 49 yards out made it 41-0 in the third quarter. Backups Caleb Lonkard and Taylor Thibodeau connected on a touchdown pass in the second half. Mace had 15 tackles and Logan Hollman 12. For Boone, Oppenheimer had 73 yards on the ground and Charles Quainoo 53. Drew Stuck posted 64 yards on seven carries.

Ryle freshman Tyrus Sciarra looks to pass against Villa Madonna Oct. 20.

Ryle boys’ soccer had moments to savor By James Weber jweber@nky.com

The season ended sooner than the previous four, but before that, Dillon McConvey had one last moment to savor as a Ryle soccer player. McConvey, a senior and Ryle’s leading scorer, posted the game-winning goal in the Raiders’ 2-1 win over Villa Madonna in the Ninth Region semifinals Oct. 20. He did it by sneaking the ball inside the left post from more than 30 yards out. It was a much-needed clutch shot with less than five minutes to go in regulation. “It’s the biggest goal of my career,” he said after that game. “It’s a great feeling. One of my teammates faked like he was going to get it, let it go through his legs and left an open lane. I got a good hit with my left and it squeaked in.” McConvey ended the season with 16 goals, but will have no more as Ryle (15-5) lost to Scott in the regional final two nights later, Oct. 22. Scott came away with a 2-1 win, snapping Ryle’s streak of three straight titles. McConvey and senior defender Chris Lally were named to the all-tournament team. Ryle trailed Villa 1-0 in the semis, and head coach Stephen Collins said the team’s experience kept the Raiders determined to make the comeback. “Because of what we’ve gone through the last four years, our kids never really got rattled,” he said. “They just hung in there and we knew eventually we would get a shot to win the game. We had confidence in our defense that they could shut the other team down.”

The defense allowed two goals to Scott’s Alec Robbins, Northern Kentucky’s leading scorer. Freshman Tyrus Sciarra was second on Ryle’s team with seven goals. Daisuke Imai had six and Grant Kennedy and Erik Pederson five. Kennedy led with 11 assists and Sciarra nine. Kennedy is also a senior, as are Imai, Thomas Middendorf, Pederson, Chase Dunn, Zane Hill and Patrick Weber. The team, along with several others at Ryle, donated equipment this year to youth players in the African country of Niger. “Niger is one of the poorest countries in the world,” Collins said. “It gives the kids some perspectives on life.”

St. Henry claims home meet By James Weber jweber@nky.com

St. Henry is known for having cross country standouts, but also plenty of depth. The Crusadersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; girls team showed its depth and mettle in winning its home meet, the St. Henry Invitational Oct. 24 at England-Idlewild Park in Burlington. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s St. Henryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last meet until the Class 1A regional Nov. 7. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone stepped up today and they brought it when they needed to,â&#x20AC;? said sophomore Lindsey Hinken. It was a great team win. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to win the home meet especially since itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the last

Hinken was St. Henryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top runner in third place. Maria Frigo was fifth, Ashley Svec sixth, Kelsey Hinken 10th and Paige Dooley 12th. St. Henry head coach Tony Harden was pleased with his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s depth.

Frigo, the defending regional champion, had an off day by her standards. Svec had missed the last couple of weeks and made her return to the lineup. Harden said Allysa Brady, who finished 23rd, stepped up after missing a couple of days of school due to illness. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The thing is we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rely on one person,â&#x20AC;? Harden said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been all year. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to know weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re deep enough if someone has a bad day, someone else can step up. Lindsey didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t panic when Maria fell back. She stepped up and did her job.â&#x20AC;?

The Brighton Recovery Center for Women took the opportunity to clean up roads near our center and it was a way for the ladies to do something to give back to the community. But, it was also a way to earn money to plan a fun event for the women to enjoy. We had about 35 women walking up and down 3 miles and some areas were impressively clean and well kept. Along the creeks a lot of trash had washed up and it was disappointing to see how much gets dumped and flows into the waterways, affecting the water and the shores. The main thing we found was alcohol-related bottles, except along the shore there was a wide variety of trash. Hopefully those driving by saw the effort it takes to clean up what others throw out the windows and will think twice before doing it. The Brighton Recovery Center for Women Weaver Road Florence

Resist net neutrality regulations

This week, the Federal Communications Commission is diving into a debate on an issue that could negatively impact the future of the Internet. These meetings about socalled net neutrality regulations are taking place in Washington, D.C., but their ramifications will be felt across the commonwealth if the FCC is successful in putting onerous new rules on the Internet. At the Kentucky Chamber, we have two main concerns about net neutrality. First, we are concerned that the FCC could stifle investment in the wired and wireless broadband networks that make the Internet accessible. Providers across Kentucky are pumping significant capital into enhancing and expanding their broadband networks. Consumers and business owners benefit from those investments and we do not want to see the FCC putting unnecessary new rules in place that could jeopardize future investment. Second, the Kentucky Chamber is concerned about economic development and our ability to compete in the global marketplace. Broadband access is critical to economic development efforts across the state and we simply cannot

allow unnecessary regulations to put us at a competitive disadvantage. Further regulation would discourage broadband deployment in less populated and rural areas, serving as a disincentive for companies to locate in underserved areas and creating an uneven playing field for existing business. Across Kentucky, there are a myriad of choices that consumers and businesses have when it comes to accessing the Internet. Providers compete for business and that competition has kept prices low and encouraged widespread deployment of broadband networks across Kentucky. The current system is working and the FCC should resist temptations to enact net neutrality regulations. Dave Adkisson President and CEO Kentucky Chamber of Commerce

Worst offenders

Plastic bottles, plastic bottles! That’s what we saw over and over when we participated in Boone County’s Trash for Cash program. Friends of the Shelter, a local humane organization, has participated for several years in this program that pays charitable groups to pick up trash along the roads in Boone County. We used to find lots of aluminum cans, but now we find the worst offenders of littering are people who carry plastic bottles of beverages and throw the empties out. Another group of people who litter are the ones who get carryout from local drive-through restaurants and toss the bags, paper and cups. Why can’t these people wait until they reach home or a trash can, instead of littering? There were five in our group and we picked up 11 bags of trash on the 2-mile stretch of Conrad Lane in Burlington. We always find some unusual items that make you wonder why they were discarded. This year we found a big of shirts, an empty whiskey flask and a pair of scissors. The rest was predictable plastic bags, empty cigarette packages, cigarette butts, etc. Carolyn Lalley Patricia Street Florence

Panel trying to please everyone The Long Range Committee of the Planning Commission is about to approve a Greenways and Trails Study. This study will be passed as a non-binding report with a nonbinding disclaimer attached to it. This is an attempt to cater to everyone involved. It intends to please supporters of the study by keeping alive the idea of installing trails and greenways throughout the county, and silence those opposed to it by affirming that there is no intention of placing the trails on private land. In the end, it really does neither. Supporters of the plan see this as a setback, and will continue to pressure the Planning Commission to codify the study into the Comprehensive Plan or Subdivision Regulations. Opponents of the plan see this as just a smaller step toward instituting the Greenways Plan than what the original

proponents intended – one that will be used to pressure developers to cede land to the county in exchange for f a v o r a b l e James reviews of zone Bozman changes and evelopment Community dplans, until a Recorder later commission guest does finally codcolumnist ify it. Instead of doing its job of planning the direction of the county in the future, the Long Range Committee is merely trying to please everyone. They need to decide if the Greenways and Trails System is a good idea or not, and either make it part of the comprehensive plan or abandon it. It is either a great plan

for Boone County which should be fully implemented, a good plan that needs a little improvement, or a bad idea that should be discarded – no matter how much work has been put into it. The committee is taking the same path of non-decision-making that some members of the Fiscal Court have taken. This was most apparent last year when the court chose to put the parks tax on the ballot, abdicating their responsibility of voting on it outright. Both elected and appointed officials should listen to the people they serve, but they need to remember the reason they were elected or appointed: to do what is in the best interest of their constituents. It is their job to make intelligent, responsible decisions for the people of Boone County. James Bozman, a resident of Friars Lane in Florence, is a candidate for Boone County Commissioner District 3.

Take your recycle bin and love it There is an extremely fun game that I sometimes offer to the elementary students I encounter. I bring in a big bag of (carefully pre-sorted) garbage and then ask the kids to sort out the recyclables. The young ones are usually so enthusiastic about handling garbage that it never fails to warm the heart of this old environmentalist. There is nothing cuter than kids scrambling to save the environment. I delineate this vignette because while it’s sometimes a little stressful remembering exactly which plastics are acceptable in the recycling bin and what cardboard could be considered contamination, the excitement of the next generation inspires me to try to do it right. Recycling rules can be confusing. I fully understand that. What is hard for me to wrap my brain around, however, is that some folks wantonly abuse our free recycling drop boxes. The big green bin on Limaburg Road is provided with your tax dollars and is a depot for your unneeded paper, plastic bottles, glass jars, and aluminum and steel cans. It is not a spot to leave old lockers, bus seats, or motor oil yet, for whatever reason, people keep dumping

these items onto our drop box. I imagine holding up a stack of siding in front of a classroom of kids. “Can this be put in a recycling Becky bin?” Even firstHaltermon graders know the answer to Community that question. Recorder Heaping junk guest on our recycling columnist boxes constitutes illegal dumping which is a serious Class D felony and could incur thousands of dollars in fines. Even worse – at least to me – it hurts our recycling program. Most of our seven drop box bins are on private land and when thoughtless garbage dumpers persist in littering them with refuse, those private landowners are more likely to ask us to take our bin off their property. Not only that, it costs lots of taxes to clean up and dispose of dumped junk, a situation that puts pressure on the county to nix the bin altogether. Saddest of all, these recycling drop boxes that were once deployed to improve Boone Countians’ lives

CH@TROOM Last week’s question

Should local governments consider consolidating services to save costs? If so, which services? “Consolidating services should be considered but money cannot be the only factor when determining whether services should or should not be merged. It is equally important that taxpayers are able to receive equally, if not more efficient, service.” J.H. “Local governments should consider consolidating, but only if there will be a ‘real’ savings/benefit to the entities involved over a long time. If it’s a band-aid fix, revising budgets might be the better alternative.” Florence “Yes! Consolidate as much as possible. Across department lines, municipality lines, county lines and state lines. Every time a consolidation is done, one chief officer is unnecessary. Many other dupli-

We have too many municipalities, school districts and duplication of services is prolific.” G.G. “I’m tempted to answer this question the way a certain candidate for high office answered Rick Warren’s question last year about when does life begin, regarding abortion: ‘Uh, yo, that’s above my paygrade.’ Still, the idea does have merit. Perhaps combining police and fire services could work, but you have to remember that it will result in some jobs lost; I don’t want to be responsible for anyone losing their livelihood.” Bill B.

CATCH A STAR

NANCY DALY/STAFF

Sue Shewnarain, left, a United Dairy Farmer employee, is shown with customer Jane McEntyre. McEntyre nominated the UDF staff for “Catch a Star” because of its excellent customer service.

UDF has a ‘family atmosphere’ The staff of the United Dairy Farmers in Burlington were nominated for “Catch a Star” for providing excellent customer service. “This is a group of people that absolutely goes above and beyond the call,” said Jane McEntyre of Oakbrook. Located at 6006 Limaburg Road, the UDF is “a warm and fuzzy place,” McEntyre said. McEntyre, a caregiver, said she likes to pick up flavored coffee in the morning then take it to a park and watch the sunrise. Going to the UDF has become a pleasant part of her routine. As soon as the staff members see her in the parking lot, they start getting her hazelnut coffee ready. “Every time you go in there it’s like ‘How are you doing today’ and it’s like

they spoil you making me fresh coffee everyday,” she said. “If they see me at the pump, they’re pointing and rushing to make fresh coffee.” McEntyre said “it’s not just me” and all customers are treated courteously.

Kyle Forbes works on “scarifying” a pumpkin at his Union residence.

PROVIDED

Here’s a scary pumpkin carved by Union resident Kyle Forbes.

By day Kyle Forbes makes crowns, fillings and veneers at his dental laboratory in Florence. In his off time, the Union resident has come to be known as the pumpkin carving master of the Hempsteade subdivision. His carvings of Frankenstein, The Joker, Ironman and other pop culture characters are as impressive as they are intricate. Every year his pumpkin carvings are a hit at Hempsteade’s Light Up the Lake community Halloween celebration. He usually comes in first in the pumpkin carving contest. Forbes tries to do something different each year. For this Halloween, he’s tackling a character from the 1988 comedy horror movie “Killer Klowns from Outer Space.” “I love using my artistic talents in other venues along with making beautiful smiles,” said Forbes, who uses some of his dental instruments to carve the pumpkins. Forbes, 42, who’s lived here since 1992, grew up in Greenup County. “I have a twin brother and we always like to have fun and one day we were goofing around and I said I want to do a (pumpkin) carving of my dog,” he said. “It just started progressing from there to be more elaborate and have more detail,” he said. Once he selects a subject for a pumpkin carving, he needs to visualize it in three dimensions. Then he thinks about the three different mediums to work with: black, orange and yellow. “Yellow is the part you carve completely out, orange is where you take the (pumpkin) skin off, the black is where the skin remains on the outside,” he said. Forbes makes a stencil of his subject, then glues it to the pumpkin. He traces the pattern onto the pumpkin with a razor blade. “I actually use my dental instruments to do the carving,” he said. Some other movie characters he’s done are Chucky from “Child’s Play,” Heath Ledger’s Joker and characters from “Pirates of the Caribbean.” The carvings can take from four to 12 hours and definitely look best when illuminated by candles, Forbes said.

People labeled ‘saint’ are put on a pedestal. Later, if any human frailty shows up in their lives, we push them off their pedestal and bury them beneath the rubble of disappointment and disillusionment. and choices. Saints – as they live out their lives the best they can – strive to stand on the fulcrum in utter honesty and understanding of themselves. They don’t compare themselves to others. They don’t judge others against the measure of themselves. They just try to relate to others and the world in a way they believe their Maker created them to do. They struggle to know and then to discipline and control their darkness and vices – while they struggle to give expression to the light and love within them with the help of God’s grace. We must hide our dark side from society in general, but we must never try to hide it from

ourselves. While doing good, we must acknowledge to ourselves our own demons as we do battle with them. When we speak of sainthood today, we speak of it in its truest sense as a full-blooded embracing of our own humanity, not a false veneer of pseudo-goodness. Trying to appear better than we are prevents our becoming what we can be. When I was a youth I looked at saints in a very different way. Most of the canonized saints seemed to belong to religious orders, the clergy, or were people who wrought miracles and had followers. Today I imagine the saints to especially be among the humble

and honest people, those who rise wearily and go off to ordinary and routine labor to support their families. They sacrifice creature comforts, narcissistic interests, and personal agendas in behalf of larger values. We do not usually accord these common people hero or saint status, bur their acts renew the world each day as a place of enduring value. As Dr. James Hollis says, “We are all, every day, faced with death, depression and despair. Whoever rises to do what must be done, does a deed for us all.” Of such is the kingdom of heaven.

Beware of the dinosaur hunter scam circulating Phony check scams are alive and well these days as scammers continue to try to steal your money. The latest deception preys on people who are trying to rent an apartment or house. Shelly Fast said she came across one such con at the Wilmington real estate office at which she works. She received an e-mail from someone seeking to rent a house. “He started to communicate back and forth with us but it was a strange communication. He didn’t want to come over and look at it, he rented it sight unseen,” she said. All the communications took place via e-mail. “We asked him to fill out a lease agreement and an application. That never happened. He went into great detail with stories that he

was an Italian foss i l h u n t e r, ” said Fast. T h e person claimed to be a ProHoward Ain f e s s o r Hey Howard! Klose who said he’s discovered lots of dinosaurs and will be coming to the U.S. to trade fossils. “We started to get pretty suspicious when he said he was going to send a check for the first month rent, deposit and furniture for the four- to five-bedroom home he wanted to rent,” Fast said. He did send a check for $8,650 – but it was written on an AOL Time Warner bank account which didn’t make any sense. He asked Fast to cash it and send $2,900 to a furni-

Clarification I have a clarification on my recent story involving Social Security Disability checks. Deductions from the benefits for food and shelter applies only to Supplemental Security Income disability and not Social Security disability. The difference between the two types of payments relates to those who have worked and contributed to Social Security and those who have not. People who paid into Social Security and then become disabled do not have to worry about their checks being reduced based on someone else helping them with food and housing expenses. They will receive their entire amount of back benefits in one payment. On the other hand, those who did not work or did not pay into Social Security will be eligible only for Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and that does reduce checks based on outside housing and food assistance. In addition, it often does pay the back benefits in increments. In all cases when applying for SSI or Social Security Disability be sure to contact an attorney with expertise in this field.

ture company for furniture he was renting. His wife and child were supposedly coming with him. “That is why he needed a large home and all that furniture. He kept mentioning a trustee in the U.S. would be in contact with us, and we kept asking for the trustee’s name and information but never got anything,” she said. Fast said she wondered why he didn’t send a check to the furniture company himself instead of asking her to do it. In addition, although he claimed to have been in Italy, the packing slip on the UPS envelope containing his check showed it was shipped from Massachusetts. “He was very strange responding to the e-mails. He didn’t answer questions that we asked him and we would respond with things he asked for and then he asked for the same thing over and over again,” Fast said. “I think in these tough times people are having now, some rentals are difficult to rent out and they get this information and they just want to rent their house and have some income. So, he’s preying on people,” she said. “When I Googled his name, and supposedly the place he was working for with the fossils, a lot of stuff came up with ‘scammers.’ People are doing it using different names but the same scenario,” Fast said.

Too many apples? Make fruit leather

The sign was outside of a church on Salem Avenue in Mount Washington: “Friendship multiplies joy a n d divides sorrow.” So true. Friends can be many different people, comRita p l e t e l y Heikenfeld unrelated or someRita’s kitchen one biological. Think of the sibling who wasn’t cool enough to hang with as a kid, or the mom or dad who seemed older than dirt. (I remember one of my kids asking me if electricity was invented when I was young). As you grow, so does your wisdom and over the years, you become the closest of friends.

Apple or pear sauce and fruit rollups/leather

Every year I make batches of apple or pear sauce,

ness. Taste as you go, adding 1 rib celery, 1 onion, the lesser amount of seasoning, etc. Add more if needed.

and rollups. No artificial anything added!

Preparation:

Wash, core and cut 3 to 5 pounds fruit into chunks (apples or pears). Leave skin on because the pectin in the peel helps remove cholesterol.

Cooking options:

Crockpot: Spray pot. Put fruit in. Cook on low six to eight hours or high for three to five hours until fruit is soft enough to mash. Stovetop: Place in heavy or nonstick large pot. Add up to 1 cup water, cider or apple juice (to keep fruit from sticking), and simmer until fruit is soft. You may have to add a bit more liquid. Careful - the mixture tends to sputter up. Oven: (my preferred method). I use a restaurant steam table pan but use anything that has sides and which will hold fruit. Spray

Fruit leather before going in oven to dry. pan. Cook in 350-degree oven until soft.

To purée:

Run through food mill or sieve, blender or food processor. If desired, sweeten to taste with sugar, Stevia or Splenda. Add cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice to taste. Do this while fruit is still warm.

Drying to make fruit rollups/leather:

Spray cookie sheets. Pour puree evenly onto sheets, about 1⁄4-inch deep. In summer, I’ll dry it in the sun. This time of year it’s the oven. Dry in warm oven. Mine only goes down to 170 degrees so I propped the door open. You don’t want it to cook too quickly or it will be hard.

COURTESY RITA HEIKENFELD

Fruit leather after drying (you can see my hand through it if you look close). It will take anywhere from four to eight hours or more depending upon the kind of apples, etc. If it’s late in the evening and it’s still not done, turn the oven off with the leather still in, and proceed in the morning.

How to tell if the fruit leather is done:

It should pull up from the pan in one sheet.

Storing:

In refrigerator, up to six months, and up to one year in freezer

The deli folks at Bigg’s were so nice, and fun to chat with. They chuckled when I said my readers were begging for the recipe. Since the recipe is proprietary, I couldn’t wrangle the recipe or all of the ingredients out of them. “It’s your normal chicken salad: mayonnaise, celery,

grapes, cashews, etc. The secret ingredients are a pinch of ‘Ahh’ and a tablespoon of love.” After tasting it, I’d say it had a lot of both – yum! Trying to clone this for the home cook when it’s made in huge amounts is challenging. Deli chicken salads often contain chicken base and seasoning salt. I fiddled with it and here’s my best shot. I poach my chicken in broth and let it cool in broth before dicing for added flavor and moist-

Monster Eye clarification

A reader had trouble with the mixture coming together. You have to mix it up really well and it will come together. I use regular sausage and baking mix, not low fat. Try starting with 2 cups baking mix and go from there. The cheese can be increased, too, to 21⁄2 cups.

1 pound cooked chicken, diced or shredded 1-2 ribs celery, diced 1-2 green onions, sliced very thin Green grapes, cut in half, and salted cashew halves or pieces – you choose how much 1 cup Hellman’s mayonnaise or more to taste 1 ⁄4 to 1⁄2 teaspoon or so each: Lawry’s seasoning salt and chicken base (use a good quality base like Minor’s). Mix chicken, celery and onions together. Whisk chicken base and salt with the mayo. Pour over chicken and mix gently. Stir in grapes and nuts. To make curried chicken salad: Start sprinkling curry powder in the mayo mixture, tasting as you go.

A season for squash Fall and winter bring a wonderful bounty from the farm and garden: winter squash. Winter squash come in many varieties, shapes and colors. They are distinguished from summer squash by their tougher outer skin. Winter squash varieties can be found at the local farmers markets and in the grocery stores. Common varieties include pumpkin, acorn, butternut, and buttercup. You might also find hubbard, delicata and others. Most are interchangeable in recipes. Squash should be heavy for its size. The hard, tough rind should be free of blemishes or soft spots. It may be stored in a cool, dry place for up to a month after purchase. Winter squash is an excellent source of vitamin A and fiber. Squash is also naturally low in fat. It can be baked, microwaved or steamed. It is great when used as a side dish, made

To steam: Quarter squash or cut into 2-inch cubes, leaving rind on (it will remove easily after cooking). You may also remove the rind prior to cooking if you wish. Remove the seeds and thick fibers from the pieces. Bring one inch of water to a boil in a saucepan and place squash on a rack or basket in the pan over the water. Do not immerse it in water. Cover the pan tightly and steam the squash 30 to 40 minutes or until tender. To microwave: Cut in half or into pieces. Remove

the seeds and thick fibers. Place the squash in a baking dish with a small amount of water. Cover the dish with plastic wrap. Microwave until tender, using these guidelines: • Acorn squash: one-half squash, 5 to 8 minutes; 1 squash, 8 to 11 minutes. • Butternut squash: Two pieces, 3 to 5 minutes. • Hubbard squash (onehalf pound pieces): Two pieces, 4 to 7 minutes. To bake: Cut in half or pieces. Remove seeds and place squash in a baking dish. Bake at 400 degrees for one hour or until tender. You might want to try topping your cooked squash with butter and a bit of brown sugar, or a touch of sour cream. You can also mash the squash for a terrific side dish. Cooked squash can also be used in recipes calling for canned pumpkin. Grab some squash and give it a try today. You just might find a great taste treat for your family.

RAVENWOOD CASTLE: A MOST UNUSUAL GETAWAY Visit a “medieval castle” on a high hilltop on 115 secluded and forested acres of the most beautiful area of Southeast Ohiothe Hocking Hills! Owners Sue & Jim Maxwell are creating the most unusual guest experience of stepping back 800 years in a reconstruction of a “12th century Norman castle.” The Maxwells have traveled throughout England & Scotland & have always loved castles & the medieval era. Although the building is new, the couple has been collecting architectural antiques for several years. Each guest room or suite has a stained glass window, usually in the bedroom, a Victorian fireplace mantel with a gas log unit, antique light fixtures and some have beautiful old doors. The wood mouldings around the door & windows & the 5 stairways are inspired by centuries old motifs from Great Britain’s stately homes & castles. Most rooms also have a French door with a balcony, private deck overlooking the forest. There are also “medieval” themed cottages with fireplaces and whirlpools. Ravenwood has

Community Question: My Bradford Pear tree usually doesn’t get its fall color until November, but this year it turned pretty in early September, and now it’s losing its leaves already, and some branches seem to be dying. Is this a disease, or is it just due to our strange weather this year? Answer : The callery pears, including the cultivars, Bradford, Aristocrat, Cleveland Select and others, all have similar problems, including bacterial fireblight, which blackens leaves and kills branch tips. But this year, along with some cases of fireblight, there have been several cases such as you describe, where the trees have premature fall color, followed by defoliation and branch death. Immature fruits may shrivel. Many times, when young trees initially exhibit these symptoms, they are found to have synthetic (plastic) burlap or natural jute burlap treated to retard decay and/or plastic twine surrounding the root ball. Failure to remove such treated and synthetic burlap at planting time prevents the root systems from growing out of the original root ball. At the same time it prevents movement of water into the root zone for use by the plant. Like synthetic burlap, plastic twine must also be removed for the long term vitality of the plant. Failure to do so results in girdling of the trunk and structural roots. Established trees that have been in the landscape for over a decade also were affected. They often show significant lichen growth on the trunk and terminal bud scale scars, indicating mini-

mal shoot growth over the previous five plus years. W h i l e lichens are not harmful Mike Klahr to plants, Community they are an Recorder e x c e l l e n t of a guest visual tree’s vitalicolumnist ty. Trees that grow slowly are unable to slough off these organisms as new bark is formed. There have been some claims that the decline of mature pear trees this year was the direct result of drought-induced failure of graft unions. No such failures have been observed. Bradford is one of the more drought tolerant plants in the landscape and has been in production for decades without reports of graft incompatibility. Instead, excavation of the roots and lower portion of the trunk on declining trees often shows vascular streaking of the xylem tissue under the bark. Samples submitted to the UK Plant Diagnostic Laboratory from trees such as yours confirmed Phytophthora root rot. Phytophthora is associated with periods of high precipitation and poorly drained soils. It has been a common diagnosis on other species in recent weeks and is attributed to the wetter than normal growing season. Phytophthora root rot is a common, opportunistic disease that kills plants that have been subjected to a series of other stressing factors. Over the previous few years these plants have appeared relatively healthy and have been able to tolerate low levels of infection. Only when soil remained

Since it is usually associated with other stressing factors the best recommendation is to match the plant to the site and provide the best cultural conditions possible. These include: (1) Make sure that plants are not planted too deep; (2) Remove all synthetic materials surrounding the root ball. Even natural jute burlap should be pulled back from the root ball and removed from the top and sides; (3) Dig wide planting holes; (4) Do not amend backfill soil with peat moss, compost, or “good soil”; (5) Loosen the soil at the edge of the root ball so that there will not be a distinct interface. Changes in soil texture prevent movement of water between the soil and the root ball; (6) Check the root ball frequently for moisture. Checking soil away from the roots is not a good indicator of moisture available to the roots. Roots of newly established plants should not be allowed to become excessively dry, even for a short time; (7) Replacement trees should be sited away from areas that remain wet. Consider redirecting drain spouts away from trees; and (8) Irrigate young trees during dry periods. Established trees should be irrigated with 1 to 1.5 inches of water no more frequently than once a week. Turf should be on a different irrigation system than landscape plants.

Boone wins ag funds The Kentucky Agricultural Development Board approved $150,000 in Boone County Agricultural Development Funds for a County Agricultural Investment Program at their August business meeting. The Northern Kentucky Cattle Association submitted a proposal to the Boone County Agricultural Development Council and the Kentucky Agricultural Development Board to provide cost-share incentives to area farmers. “I am committed to creating opportunities that will make Kentucky’s agricultural community stronger,” said Gov. Steve Beshear. “County Agricultural Investment Programs funded by the Kentucky Agricultural Development Board play an

integral role in achieving this goal.” C.A.I.P. is designed to provide farmers with incentives to allow them to improve and diversify their current production practices. C.A.I.P. combines what were previously known as county model cost-share programs into one, where each model program becomes an investment area. “The Agricultural Development Funds are an important part of diversification across the commonwealth,” said Rep. Sal Santoro (R-Florence). “Boone County is fortunate to have these funds available through the County Agricultural Investment Program.” C.A.I.P. covers a wide

You can’t get much greener than composting What? You don’t have a compost pile? Well, let’s take a look at how you can get started! Composting is a practical and convenient way to handle yard trimmings such as leaves, excess grass, chipped brush, plant cuttings, etc., and it’s a better option than sending this yard waste to the landfills. The results of your composting efforts will be one of the best soil amendments that no money can buy. By combining your yard trimmings and other clean yard or vegetable wastes with soil or garden fertilizer (synthetic or natural), keeping the pile properly moistened and turned, the com-

post pile begins to heat and cook as the bacteria and f u n g i b r e a k down the ingredients.

What can I compost?

Leaves, grass clippings, plant refuse, wood chips, sod, livestock manures, vegetative kitchen scraps, weeds, straw, pine needles, dead plants, aquarium water/algae and plants, some newspapers, wood ash, egg shells, coffee

grounds and lots more. Stay away from meat, bones, dairy products, cat/dog feces, cooking oils, things sprayed with pesticides, even insects and diseased plants. NOTE: Although grass clippings can be added to the compost pile (and make a great addition), return them back to the soil/turf where they belong. Clippings returned to the soil/turf can generate as much as 25 percent of your lawn’s total fertilizer needs. So don’t bag it; return those clippings back to the turf (unless you absolutely need to add clippings to the compost pile)!

Locating my pile

Find an out of sight area that is well-drained, away from tree roots, not in the shade, and accessible with a garden hose. Remove any sod underneath so the pile will be in direct contact with the soil.

wire, fencing, wooden slats, etc. The sides must be designed to allow proper air flow to the pile. You may even consider the compost tumblers (best for smaller yards) for ease of turning the pile.

Do I need a bin?

Creating a pile?

Composting does not require a bin, but bins do help to keep the pile neat and easier to handle. Bins need to be at least 3x3x3 feet to heat properly. A 5x5x5 foot bin is a much nicer size to work with. Ready made bins are available, or can be made with concrete blocks, chicken

Layer the materials you’ll be using in your compost pile. 6-8 inches of materials, a little fertilizer (synthetic or natural), some garden soil, moisten, layer again, and again until reaching the 3to-5-foot height. Now it’s up to you to help monitor proper moisture levels as the compost-

ing begins. Turning the pile will begin about one week after the initial pile is made. Move the inside of the pile to the outside. When your pile is really cooking, it will heat to 140160 degrees in the middle! Your finished compost will be dark in color, crumbly in nature, and have an “earthy” smell. The pile should be reduced to 1⁄3 to 1⁄2 its original size. And yes, the process will be a bit slower during the winter season. For details, visit http:// tinyurl.com/2lkv6.

Boone County businesses take top honors Consumer focus on necessities this year helped fuel the success of three emerging small businesses in Greater Cincinnati. The Learning Kitchen of West Chester, Skiddadles of Florence, and Children's Designer Boutique in Hebron took top honors this year at the 2009 John J. Frank Client of the Year awards. The awards are given by Greater Cincinnati SCORE chapter 34, which selects firms for their outstanding

business development and growth. The Cincinnati SCORE chapter serves southwest Ohio, Northern Kentucky and Southeast Indiana. Its 83 working and retired executives and business owners volunteer to help entrepreneurs and new business owners through no-cost, confidential counseling and low-cost workshops. Jennifer Vogel and Doreen Grontkowski were named top SCORE Client of

the Year for the Learning Kitchen, a hands-on cooking school and retail store based in Union Centre in West Chester. Tiffany Sams, owner of Skiddadles, an anytime child care company with expanded evening hours, was named first runner-up. Skiddadles is located in Florence. SCORE counselor Bill DiGrezio helped this firm, reviewing its marketing and business plans, and aiding with business growth. "Tiffany is an astute busi-

ness manager, a quick study," said DiGrezio. "She has had many requests from other businesspeople to become a franchise." The Children's Designer Boutique in Hebron was named second runner-up. SCORE counselor DiGrezio also worked with owner Tami Howell-Soto to finetune a business plan, finance plans and real estate options before opening her consignment store specializing in children's clothing, furniture and maternity

wear in January 2008. "She has built a viable business in one year and is showing solid growth in sales and profitability," said DiGrezio. “Each year the selection of our top Client of the Year gets more difficult,” said SCORE chair Tom Moon. “Our counselors are continually energized by client successes as local entrepreneurs and small business owners increasingly seek out SCORE counselors who can help them start their

businesses or run them better.” The Cincinnati SCORE chapter estimates it helped create 400 jobs locally this year. SCORE Chapter 34 was recognized as national SCORE Chapter of the Year in 2005, and was a finalist in both 2006 and 2007. SCORE recently moved to new offices at 525 Vine St., Suite 1030.
