The region’s missing bridge: The project no one can get done

Julia Fair Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Editor’s note: Information included reﬂ ects this article’s original publication date – Nov. 13 (updated Nov. 15). Visit Cincinnati.com for possible updates. Where’s our new bridge? The ﬁ ery accident that recently closed the Brent Spence Bridgeresurfaced the decades-long discussion about how to build and pay for a new bridge next to the 56-year-old bridge. In the 1990s, the Federal Highway Administration declared the bridge functionally obsolete because its narrow lanes carried more cars than it was designed for – with no emergency lane. It’s unclear if that contributed to the recent jack-knifed truck accident. But, the shutdown highlighted just how long its taken regional and national lawmakers to agree on a way to pay for the $2.5 billion new bridge. Everyone agrees a new bridge is needed to connect Northern Kentucky to Cincinnati, Ohio across the Ohio River. But it’s the political promise no one has been able to keep. First, two presidents haven’t been successful. In 2011, former President Barack Obama stood at the base of the bridge and touted legislation that would pry open funding for the bridge. That bill died in the Senate. In 2016, President Donald Trump promised to help the bridge while he spoke at a campaign rally in Wilmington, Ohio. That didn’t happen.

The reason is simple: Money. To pay for a new bridge will almost certainly require tolls. Ohio lawmakers have no problem with tolls, which could serve as a local match to any money the federal government may set aside for the project. But, Northern Kentucky lawmakers do. Those are the elements that make ﬁ nding a funding solution so complicated, said former Kentucky Secretary of State Trey Grayson, who supports ﬁ nancing the bridge with a toll. “It’s really expensive, and the way

our laws work, and the way our transportation funding works, enough northern Kentuckians are concerned about bearing that burden,” Grayson said.

Who promised what? Brent Cooper, President and CEO of the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce, watched governors, congressmen and presidents make promises about the bridge. Not too long ago, former Speaker of the House Republican John Boehner, of

Southwest Ohio, and Senate Majority Leader Republican Mitch McConnell, of Kentucky, controlled Congress. The pair didn’t make progress on the Brent Spence Bridge funding dilemma. McConnell still runs the U.S. Senate and his wife, Elaine Chao, even serves as President Trump’s Secretary of Transportation. Still no bridge. At times, “we thought for sure we were going to get this done,” Cooper told The Enquirer. He recalled Obama’s visit See BRIDGE, Page 2A

Founded in Cincinnati, DAV has been a voice and advocate for disabled veterans for 100 years Jeff Suess Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

For some soldiers, the war doesn’t end when they come home. Wounded or injured, missing a limb or traumatized by their experience, they face further challenges long after the shooting stops: rehabilitation and recovery, continued health problems, a need for jobs. For the last 100 years, the Disabled American Veterans has been their voice, lobbying in Washington for compensation and benefi ts, helping fi nd new jobs and career advancements and working to improve the lives of those who sacrifi ced for their country.

“Veterans are here every day, day in and day out, not just when they come back from war. It’s a lifelong journey to try to return to some sort of normalcy after they serve in the military and become disabled,” said Marc Burgess, CEO and National Adjutant of DAV at the national headquarters in Cold Spring, Kentucky. “That’s our goal to make sure that the program and services that we oﬀ er go straight to the quality of life and security of the American dream that these vets fought for all of us to have.”

Started in Cincinnati by WWI vets Founded in Cincinnati in 1920, the nonproﬁ t charity honors its 100th anni-

versary this year. On Christmas Day 1919, Judge Robert S. Marx hosted a party at the Sinton Hotel in Cincinnati for more than 100 disabled World War I veterans who were receiving special job training from the Ohio Mechanics Institute. Marx, a newly elected judge on the Superior Court in Cincinnati, was a wounded veteran himself and all too aware of the challenges they faced every day. The conversation that night turned to the meager support available and the need for a national organization of disabled veterans. The U.S. government, even the naSee DAV, Page 5A

Brent Spence closure doubles cars Anderson Ferry serves Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Anderson Ferry is transporting as many as 1,000 cars a day across the Ohio River after the ﬁ ery collision of two semi tractor-trailers closed the Brent Spence Bridge Nov. 11. “We’ve been very busy,” owner Paul Anderson said of the 200-year-old ferry service between Delhi Township and Constance, Kentucky. “We usually do 400 to 500 cars (a

I guess now we’re probably doing twice that or more.” Anderson Ferry’s three ferries continue to make a total of about 130 trips a day, Anderson said, but the ferries are carrying more cars on every trip. The hours remain the same: 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. weekdays, 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturdays and 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sundays. And the $5 price per car (prices for other vehicles vary) is not going up. “We’ve had the same price for four to ﬁ ve years and I was thinking of raising it in January,” Anderson said. “But I’m not going to do it while we have problems in the region. We don’t try to take advantage of people like a lot of businesses do.” Anderson knows it is uncertain when the Brent Spence Bridge will reopen. “We’ll just do what we can. That’s all we can do,” Anderson said, noting that some motorists have been driving away when they see the lines for the

as one of those moments. In 2011, Obama’s plan centered around the American Jobs Act. It would have pumped $50 billion toward infrastructure projects in the U.S. That bill died in the Senate, according to NPR. In 2014, Former U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx told The Enquirer that the toll disagreement between Kentucky and Ohio made it diffi cult to fund the project. Foxx said the Department of Transportation has fi nancing tools available that could provide money for the bridge. He cited a program created by the 1998 Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) that off ers low-cost federal loans to local entities for projects of “regional and national signifi cance.” Without the states cooperating to fi nance a local match, he said it would be hard for them to solve the problem, according to a previous Enquirer article.

demic work out, and everybody will have a smile on their face.” Editor’s note: Information included reﬂ ects this article’s original publication date – Nov. 13.

In 2016, Trump promised a ﬁ x during a campaign stop. He said he would take money from the United Nations “and we will use that money to invest in America.” Shortly after he was elected, The Brent Spence Bridge was No. 2 on a Trump administration list of 50 transportation priorities. Nothing came of that. The Trump campaign said the priority list was not an oﬃ cial policy document. In 2019, Sen. Rand Paul introduced the Penny Plan to Enhance Infrastructure Act. It planned to cut 1% of the federal government’s noninfrastructure spending and direct that money to infrastructure projects in Kentucky and across the nation. Paul said the $12 billion in spending could help with projects such as the Brent Spence Bridge. The bill hasn’t been reviewed by the House or Senate yet.

What’s the holdup in Kentucky?

Ohio and Kentucky. Northern Kentucky lawmakers don’t want their constituents to pay a toll to cross the bridge to go to work in Cincinnati, said Boone County Republican Rep. Sal Santoro, chairman of a transportation subcommittee. There’s also a law that prohibits tolls on any new bridge that connects Northern Kentucky to Cincinnati. A year after his election, In 2016, former Gov. Matt Bevin signed a bill, backed by the Northern Kentucky delegation, that prohibited tolls on any new bridge that connected Northern Kentucky to Cincinnati across the Ohio River. Former Ohio Gov. John Kasich grew frustrated with Kentucky’s anti-toll stance. “What do they think? Some sugar daddy is coming?” Kasich told a group of reporters in 2018. “Someone is going to come on a great white horse to build a bridge? I don’t think so.”

Local leaders say the biggest funding block is the toll disagreement between

Sheriﬀ : Man hospitalized after home invasion in Burlington Four suspects ﬂ ee after ransacking home, holding victim at gunpoint Madeline Mitchell Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A Burlington man was hospitalized Saturday afternoon after police said four suspects invaded his home, ransacked the place at gunpoint and fl ed. Offi cers were dispatched to the 5900 block of Ethan Drive in Burlington at approximately 1:24 p.m. Saturday for a reported home invasion and robbery. Offi cials said three people living at the residence, including a 9-year-old child, were home during the incident. The residents were confronted by four men who arrived in a silver Jeep Grand Cherokee, offi cials said. The armed men entered through the unlocked garage door and demanded cash at gunpoint. The four men ransacked the residence and de-

How did Louisville do it? In 2012, Indiana hatched a plan to build two new toll bridges to connect southern Indiana to Louisville, Kentucky. Santoro told The Enquirer that the two scenarios are diﬀ erent. “(Indiana residents are) the ones paying for the bridges because they’re coming to Louisville every day,” Santoro said. Kentucky paid $1.4 billion for one of the new bridges, according to the United States Transportation Department website. A big chunk of the state’s share, $493.2 million, came from a Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act loan and the toll revenue bonds. Those are backed by Kentucky’s 50% share of the toll revenue generated from the combined Ohio River Bridges Project. The Louisville bridges and the Brent Spence Bridge funding situations are diﬀ erent, said Mark Policinksi, CEO of the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana Regional Council of Governments. In Lousiville, there wasn’t a push

manded keys to a Toyota Supra that was parked in the garage. Oﬃ cers said one of the victims, a 21-year-old man, tried to "reason" with the men and was "pistol whipped" as a result. The 21-year-old sustained signiﬁ cant injuries to his

face and was transported to St. Elizabeth Medical Center in Florence, offi cials said. He is in stable condition. After the assault, offi cials said a "commotion" ensued inside the residence and one of the suspects fi red a shot through the ceiling. No one was injured as a result of the gunshot. The suspects then located a key fob to a dark gray 2013 Dodge Charger that was parked in the driveway and fl ed the area with that car and the Jeep Grand Cherokee they arrived with, the release states. Offi cials say the suspects were described as young and were wearing black jackets, beanies and partial face coverings. An investigation is underway. Offi cers say they are working to collect surveillance video from the area. Anyone with information about the incident is encouraged to call CrimeStoppers at 513-352-3040 or the Boone County Sheriff 's Offi ce at 859-334-3651.

back on tolls because more traffi c fl owed from Indiana to Kentucky than Kentucky to Indiana. “Kentucky was a much easier sell on tolls because they knew they were going to be getting the majority of the dollars,” Policinksi said. The law Bevin signed specifi cally hindered the Cincinnati area bridge project because it prohibited tolls on bridges only between Ohio and Kentucky. Construction on the Louisville bridges began in 2013 before Bevin took offi ce. Bevin’s 2016 bill blocked tolls as a funding source for the new bridge next to the Brent Spence – a move pushed by Northern Kentucky’s delegation. During his re-election bid in 2019, Bevin backtracked and said tolling had to be part of the solution for the bridge. Northern Kentucky lawmakers haven’t discussed repealing the law, Santoro said.

tucky into Ohio. Traﬃ c experts have called it dubious. And that route would require a new bridge anyway, so it’s unclear how that would solve the tolling question. The Eastern Bypass is a proposed four-lane highway that would go roughly 70 miles, connecting at Interstate 75 in Springboro and eventually reconnecting to I-75 at Crittenden in Grant County. In January, the Ohio Department of Transportation study concluded the bypass wasn’t a solution to the Brent Spence Bridge problems. Its estimated cost was between $5.4 billion and $7.3 billion. Kentucky ﬁ nished a $2 million study into several Brent Spence Bridge alternatives in 2017. It concluded that the Eastern Bypass was “worthy of further exploration.” Kentucky estimated a price tag of $5.3 billion to complete the project.

What do NKY lawmakers want?

What’s next?

Santoro said he won’t support a toll if he doesn’t know how much the toll is going to be or how long it would take to pay oﬀ the loans. He also said he wanted people to consider the eastern bypass route. The Eastern Bypass would run east to west across southern Northern Ken-

Ky Gov. Andy Beshear would not speculate about whether the proposed expansion of the bridge would have prevented the crash, but said it was time to get the project moving. “I hope this creates an additional impetus for the community. The communities on both sides of the bridge have to

come together for us to have a path forward,” Beshear said. “The disruption...ought to make us all take look and take a look and say ‘what more is everyone one willing to sacrifi ce or change or reconsider to get the project up and moving forward.” Cooper said the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce supports a “reasonable” toll. That means it would support a $1 toll, but not a $4 toll, he said. Cooper added that a rise in the state and federal gas tax could provide funding not only for the Brent Spence Bridge, but other regional infrastructure projects as well. “I’m hopeful that our federal delegation and our state legislatures and local offi cials will all fi nd a way to fi nally get a second bridge built,” said Cooper.

tion itself, had been unprepared to welcome the 204,000 scarred, disabled soldiers returning from the war in Europe. They came home without arms or legs, blind or deaf, mentally ill, or their lungs ravaged by poison gas. The nation’s coff ers were depleted by the war eff ort and government assistance was lacking and ineffi cient. As the world suff ered from the Spanish fl u pandemic, hospital beds were scarce and wounded soldiers slept in cots or on the fl oor, or were turned away. Folks were left to fend for themselves. Disabled veterans on street corners selling pencils from a tin cup became a familiar sight. Marx and other disabled veterans aimed to put an end to that. Within a few months, DAV was born as Disabled American Veterans of the World War. Though formed months earlier, DAV counts Sept. 25, 1920, as its birthdate, when a national caucus was held at Memorial Hall in Over-the-Rhine, attended by 250 disabled veterans from across the U.S.

National commander, war hero Marx served as DAV’s fi rst national commander and biggest promoter. Born in Cincinnati in 1889, Marx graduated from Walnut Hills High School and the University of Cincinnati law school. He was a noted attorney, judge and law professor. UC’s law library bears his name. During World War I, Marx served as captain and operations offi cer in the 357th Infantry, 90th Division, and received the Distinguished Service Cross for his heroism as well as the Purple Heart. On Nov. 10, 1918, after his battalion suff ered heavy losses, Marx took command of the attack on Baâlon in the Meuse-Argonne Off ensive in France, which became the furthest point taken by U.S. troops. In a 1919 questionnaire about his military service, Marx wrote: “When I reached Battery headquarters, found the men digging in and gave directions and orders for an immediate advance. After a brief Period the advance commenced and was met with machine gun fi re from both fl anks and artillery fi re from four sides. While leading my Battery forward, a high explosive shell landed close by, killing my intelligence offi cer and wounding me in some 14 places.” He was taken to a mobile hospital where surgeons operated on his head. Two days later, he awoke and found that the armistice had been signed. As a war hero and fellow Democrat, Marx was enlisted by presidential hopeful James M. Cox and his running mate, Franklin D. Roosevelt, for the 1920 election. He joined their whistle-stop campaign, visiting 32 states by train. Although Cox lost the election, the tour helped Marx get the word out to other disabled veterans across the nation and plant DAV chapters. DAV held its fi rst national convention in Detroit in 1921. Rabbi Michael Aaronsohn of Cincinnati, who had been blinded by an artillery shell, gave the invocation. More than 1,000 disabled veterans reunited for the fi rst time since the muddy war-torn trenches, and stood in silence for fallen comrades. Then it was all business. Delegates elected Marx as the fi rst national commander, agreed on a program to assist disabled veterans and chose Cincinnati for the national head-

quarters. “In war, all are eligible to be wounded, so all the sick and wounded would be eligible to join the DAVWW,” Marx said. Then they marched proudly through the streets of Detroit, some on crutches, others guiding the blind, triumphant veterans rather than victims.

‘Building better lives’ DAV’s mission is “building better lives for all of our nation’s disabled veterans and their families,” from World War I to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Congress issued a federal charter to the organization in 1932. One memorable fundraiser was the Idento-Tag, a miniature replica license plate keychain mailed to motorists along with an explanation of what DAV was doing for disabled veterans and a request for a small donation. DAV had a plant in Reading where the tags were produced. Most of the workers were disabled veterans. Any keys found with an Idento-Tag could be dropped in a mailbox, and the postal service would forward them to DAV and the keys would be returned to their owner – who often sent back a grateful donation. In 1966, DAV moved its headquarters to the site of the old St. Joseph’s Orphanage in Cold Spring. Today there are nearly 1,300 DAV chapters and 1 million members across the U.S. DAV has adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic this year, creating an unemployment relief fund to assist veterans who have lost their jobs during the quarantine and off ering virtual job fairs. There is also a staff in Washington, D.C., that works with Congress and the White House to make sure the laws on the books for veterans benefi ts stay on the books and don’t get chopped by budget cuts. “Without the advocacy and infl uence of organizations like DAV, budgets would be balanced on the backs of our veterans, and we make sure that doesn’t happen,” Burgess said. “We are the voice of ill and injured veterans and we will have our voice heard.” Sources: “Wars & Scars” at dav.org, Enquirer archives

Senior Living & Personal Care Apartments Now Available!

It’s a well-known fact that for many older Americans, the home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 45% of their total net worth. And with interest rates near all-time lows while home values are still high, this combination creates the perfect dynamic for getting the most out of your built-up equity. But,manyaren’ttakingadvantageof this unprecedented period. According to new statistics from the mortgage industry, senior homeowners in the U.S. are now sitting on more than 7.19 trillion dollars* of unused home equity. Not only are people living longer than ever before, but there is also greater uncertainty in the economy. With home prices back up again, ignoring this “hidden wealth” may prove to be short sighted when looking for the best long-term outcome. All things considered, it’s not

mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a HECM loan, which is not the case. In fact, one key advantage of a HECM is that the proceeds will first be used to pay off any existing liens on the property, which frees up cash flow, a huge blessing for seniors living on a fixed income. Unfortunately, many senior homeowners who might be better off with a HECM loan don’t even bother to get more information because of rumors they’ve heard. In fact, a recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one HECM lender, found that over 98% of their clients are satisfied with their loans. While these special loans are not for everyone, they can be a real lifesaver for senior homeowners - especially in times like these. The cash from a HECM loan can be used for almost any purpose.

It’s a fact: no monthly mortgage payments are required with a government-insured HECM loan; however the borrowers are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees. Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement. Although today’s HECM loans have been improved to provide even greater financial protection for homeowners, there are still many misconceptions. For example, a lot of people

common uses include making home improvements, paying off medical bills or helping other family members. Some people simply need the extra cash for everyday expenses while others are now using it as a safety net for financial emergencies.

Although these costs may be substantial, AAG does not establish an escrow account for these payments. However, a set-aside account can be set up for taxes and insurance, and in some cases may be required. Not all interest on a reverse mortgage is taxdeductible and to the extent that it is, such deduction is not available until the loan is partially or fully repaid. AAG charges an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium (where required by HUD), closing costs and servicing fees, rolled into the balance of the loan. AAG charges interest on the balance, which grows over time. When the last borrower or eligible non-borrowing spouse dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, or fails to comply with the loan terms, the loan becomes due and payable (and the property may become subject to foreclosure). When this happens, some or all of the equity in the property no longer belongs to the borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan balance.

Beverly Hills Supper Club development: No construction on disputed area Julia Fair Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Attorneys reached an agreement in the dispute regarding the 80-acre $65 million real estate project set to transform the former site of the Beverly Hills Supper Club in Southgate, according to a joint statement from attorneys. The project is expected to have an assisted living center, apartments, homes – and a permanent memorial honoring the victims of the 1977 Memorial Day weekend fi re that killed 165 and injured more than 200. For months, fi re victim descendants advocated for part of the parcel – where most people died – to be exempt from construction and used for a public memorial fountain. Attorneys for fi re victim descendants and the developers gathered at the Campbell County Circuit Court Nov. 10 for a hearing to determine if work could continue on the entire parcel after a judge partially blocked the project in October. Instead of the hearing, attorneys negotiated for hours in court hallways, an Enquirer reporter witnessed. According to the statement, The developers, Edgewood, Kentucky-based construction fi rm Ashley Builders, agreed to: h Perform a survey to confi rm the location of the former Cabaret Room, where most people died in the 1977 fi re. h Include a deed restriction to restrict construction on the Cabaret Room site. h Allow the Beverly Hills Respect the Dead group to raise funds and construct a memorial fountain at the Cabaret Room site. h Allow access to the memorial in the future.

man body parts remain there. The area they focused on is the former site of the cabaret room, where most people died in the ﬁ re. The descendants wanted it to be declared a burial ground, which would bar it from construction under Kentucky law. Some descendants claimed they didn't receive family members' body parts back after the ﬁ re, according to court documents. The developers insisted rescue crews recovered all bodies.

The descendants also wanted the memorial honoring the ﬁ re victims to be placed where the cabaret room was. The developers, at one point, planned to place it along U.S. 27.

What happens next? The agreement reached Nov. 10 must be approved by Southgate City Council and the Campbell County Planning and Zoning commission, according to the statement. That's estimated to happen in a few weeks.

Dark Charge Day: Expect the unexpected Despite COVID-19, Braxton Brewing Company aims to make the sixth annual event a memorable one Matt Koesters

Special to Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

I won’t ever forget my fi rst Dark Charge Day. The fi rst Saturday in December 2016 was unseasonably warm, and in the overcast sky loomed the threat of heavy rain. When I got to Seventh Street in Covington at 7 a.m., there was already a line of about 40 to 50 people outside of the Braxton Brewing Company. As has become tradition, those early visitors passed the time waiting for Braxton to open the doors by holding a massive bottle share on the sidewalk outside. Some of the people in line sat in their folding chairs and made breakfast on propane stoves, off ering food to friends who happened by. Others walked up and down the sidewalk, off ering everyone they encountered pours from crazy-rare bottles and cans of out-ofdistribution craft beer – stouts from California, IPAs from Massachusetts and sours from far-fl ung parts of the country were there for the asking. By the time Braxton started selling its Dark Charge barrel-aged stout and adjunct-fl avored variants, I had befriended more people than I can count on both hands. I still consider several of the people I celebrated Dark Charge Day with to be close friends to this day. I’ve been to every Dark Charge Day since, and each year has been bigger than the one before it. The lines started forming earlier each year, and the footprint of the party has grown to the point that the city of Covington allowed Braxton to shut down the entire Seventh Street block occupied by the brewery to make way for tents full of amazing food, great guest taps and live music. Obviously, Dark Charge Day isn’t going to be anything like it’s been in years past, thanks to COVID-19. We won’t be seeing Braxton’s taproom and upper deck stuff ed to the gills with people. Bottle sharing is probably unlikely and bound to be frowned upon. But Braxton is working to make the sixth annual Dark Charge Day a memorable one, despite the unique challenges posed by 2020. “Since the beginning of COVID we have been working on developing our technology to handle this day,” Jake Rouse, Braxton CEO, said on the brewery’s Dark Charge Day website. “So we’re thrilled to share that all

Braxton Brewing Co. selections from a previous Dark Charge Day. BRAXTON BREWING CO/PROVIDED

bottle sales will take place over the course of three weeks beginning Tuesday, Nov. 17, and ending Thursday, Dec. 3, exclusively at DarkChargeDay.com.” This year’s variants have yet to be announced, but Rouse assured Dark Charge fans that the Braxton team has “pulled out all the stops” in creating this year’s Dark Charge lineup. Given the extreme popularity of past years’ Molé (aka the Mexican Chocolate variant) and Maple Breakfast variants, they’re likely to return. As for the rest, Braxton fans have learned to expect the unexpected. Dark Charge Day itself falls on Saturday, Dec. 5, and the celebration will be held at all four of Braxton’s Greater Cincinnati locations – Covington, Pendleton, Braxton Labs in Bellevue and the Fort Mitchell Barrell House. Each will have all of the Dark Charge variants on draft, along with full slates of live music. “We’ve dedicated a ton of time, energy and eﬀ ort into creating spaces in our taprooms that adhere to all guidelines, and provide a safe and enjoyable environment for our guests,” Rouse said. “While the event will certainly look diﬀ erent at a limited capacity without our normal outdoor tent and block party,” Rouse continued, “we believe this is the best and safest way to enjoy Dark Charge with the best community in beer and we can’t wait to share it with you.”

Notes from a busy weekend First, a round of congratulations to Sonder in Mason for its second anniversary release, which included the release of several special variants of Sonder favorites. My favorite part, though, was the triumphant return of Sonder’s apple streusel-inspired ale, known this year as “This Beer is Named After the Polka Band from a 1990s Christmas Movie.” It’s a smart, timely decision by the Sonder team to recognize that a beer called “Kenosha Kickers” could be seen as in bad taste, and the replacement name made me smile. Especially impressive was the Mexican Hot Chocolate variant of Otto, Sonder’s double tiramisu stout. Also happening recently was the long awaited release of Listermann Brewing Company’s Ray Ray line of imperial barrel-aged stouts. At least three of this year’s variants – Coconut S’mores, Bread Pudding and German Chocolate Cupcake – are all in the running for my favorite of the year. Listermann’s Ray Ray events earned widespread praise from those who attended; just an outstanding eff ort by the Listermann crew on all fronts. I spent 20 minutes on a recent Saturday afternoon talking craft beer on 700 WLW with weekend host Sterling. It wasn’t nearly as terrifying as the fi rst time I did a radio show, but I’m sure those who heard me could tell I was still fi ghting off a little stage fright.

I think you’ll get a kick out of this scenario. Today, I was elbow deep in kraut. Homemade sauerkraut that is. I just ﬁ nished tamping it down into jars when it dawned on me that I need to get to the grocery to buy turkey wings for my do-ahead turkey gravy for Thanksgiving. I’m sharing the recipe here, tweaked a bit. When I mentioned the gravy a couple weeks ago, I thought I’d get requests. And I did. This gravy is yummy on its own, but pour the defatted drippings from your roasted turkey into it, and oh my, you’ll love the results. Plus making the gravy ahead gives you extra for leftovers, and no worries about making it from scratch on Thanksgiving. And I know I tell you this every year, but this year wishing you and yours a holiday ﬁ lled with good food and good people is more important than ever. Most likely your gathering, like mine, will be smaller due to the pandemic. So take a few minutes and pack up some

Add 6 cups broth, carrot, thyme, bay and parsley. If you need to add a little more liquid to cover, add water. Bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 1 hour or so. Remove wings and save meat for another use. Strain broth into saucepan, pressing vegetables to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard vegetables. Refrigerate overnight if you have time so you can skim fat off top easily. If not, do your best to skim it after straining. Bring broth in pot to a gentle boil. Whisk flour into remaining 2 cups chicken broth. Whisk in broth/flour mixture into broth and boil a few minutes to thicken gravy. Stir butter in. Season to taste.

Turkey wings and onions after roasting.

Refrigerate up to 4 days or freeze for 2 months. Tip

to-go dinners. Share them with folks who may not be able to leave their homes, or might be alone. And don’t forget to break the wishbone – whoever gets the biggest half can make a wish.

When you reheat gravy, add turkey drippings to it. If this makes the gravy too thin, whisk a little flour and cool water together – equal parts of each, then add some to the gravy. Do this in increments a little at a time, until you reach thickness desired.

SPORTS How Notre Dame volleyball won the elusive state title James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Notre Dame Academy has been one of the premier programs in Kentucky high school volleyball since the state began sponsoring the sport. Notre Dame won eight of the fi rst 16 state champions sanctioned in the sport by the Kentucky High School Athletic Association. However, since 1994, the Pandas have had a major mental and physical hurdle located to the southwest of their campus. A big mountain to climb in the form of Louisville all-girls powers Assumption, Mercy and Sacred Heart, who have combined to win all 25 state championships since Notre Dame last won one in 1994. Assumption, which in some years contends for the role as best overall team in the nation, has won 20 of the 25. When Molly McDermott came to coach her alma mater, she went to work giving her program new equipment they would need to climb that hill. That work paid off Nov. 7, when Notre Dame edged Mercy in a fi ve-set thriller (21-25, 25-19, 25-22, 22-25, 15-13) to win that elusive state championship. It was NDA’s ninth all-time, second to Assumption’s 22 and now two ahead of Mercy’s seven. It was a program win for 26 years of heartbreak. “Every coach and every player over the past 26 years has been a part of this championship,” said NDA head coach Molly McDermott. “They continued coming in and working hard and not letting the level of play drop off , even when we weren’t experiencing the championships. They came in and maintained the high level of volleyball for those 26 years.” McDermott, a 1990 NDA graduate, was a standout on the Pandas’ 1989 state championship team coached by Kim Gunning. She’s the fi rst person to win a state title as both a head coach and a player. Notre Dame fi nished 26-3 for the season, winning the Ninth Region championship for the second straight year. The Pandas had lost in fi ve games at Mercy Oct. 3 (25-20, 18-25, 19-25, 25-20,

15-12) and did not play Assumption during the season. Mercy edged Assumption in fi ve games in the quarterfi nals, and both teams rolled through their semifi nal match. Then it came to crunch time. McDermott spent a lot of energy during the season reminding her team that they could compete with the Louisville powers. “They came in this year talking about a state championship,” McDermott said. “They competed with those schools at the freshman and JV levels, so they felt when they were seniors , they said we could do this. It’s that mental battle.”

That mental perseverance helped as the tense moments and the swings of momentum in the state fi nal were refl ected in the stats, which were close in every major category. Notre Dame had to come through at several key moments. The Pandas had to bounce back after giving away leads of 10-2 and 15-10 in the fourth set, while leading 2-1. The Jaguars rallied to win the fourth set 25-22 to force the decisive fi fth set. NDA trailed 4-2 and 10-9 in the fi nal set. The fi fth set had nine ties and three lead changes until it got to 13-13, when

the next team to lead by two points would win the match. Notre Dame led 14-13 on a kill by senior Cate Scheper from an assist by senior Emily Bentley. The Pandas then won the ﬁ nal point on a decisive block by Scheper and senior Abby Powers at the net, following a serve by senior Anna Long. “These kids believed and they bought into working hard in the gym day in and day out,” McDermott said. “They struggled to be motivated some days, and we told them ‘Are you working as hard as Mercy and Assumption right now?’” See NOTRE DAME, Page 2B

Kid Glove leader Paul Kramer passes away James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Paul Kramer, a legendary baseball ﬁ gure in the Cincinnati area, died Nov. 8 at age 83. Kramer was the longtime executive secretary of the Kid Glove program, which raised money for baseball and softball equipment for youth games in addition to other charity ventures that connected kids with those sports. Multiple Reds games each year have been designated “Kid Glove Games,” with participants given ticket vouchers and special recognition during the contest. “The Cincinnati Reds and the Reds Community Fund extend their condolences to the family of long-time Kid Glove program director, Paul Kramer,” Reds President and Chief Operating Ofﬁ cer Phil Castellini said in a statement. “Paul was the heart and soul of the program that raised millions of dollars over the years to provide high-quality equipment for hundreds of youth baseball and softball teams. Paul and Kid Glove have been an essential part of the fabric of Reds baseball for decades and this marks a tremendous loss for our entire community.” Kramer lost his battle with cancer Nov. 8 and leaves an indelible legacy in Greater Cincinnati, having served for 35 years as the leader of the iconic Power Crosley Jr. Amateur Baseball fund

(otherwise known as Kid Glove). He was involved with the Kid Glove games at Crosley Field and Riverfront Stadium before transitioning to a model that made donated Reds tickets available to youth teams who would sell them in their neighborhoods and use the proceeds for equipment. “Paul made it possible for tens of thousands of kids to play ball,” said Reds Community Fund executive director and Kid Glove board member, Charley Frank. “Kid Glove is synonymous with youth baseball and Paul was one of our region’s most ardent baseball fans and advocates. The work that the Reds Community Fund does wouldn’t have been possible without Paul’s tireless eff orts. It will be impossible to replace him but we’re committed to keeping his legacy burning brightly through our youth baseball and softball programs.” The Kid Glove program raised more than $400,000 in 2019 and over $10,000,000 since its inception in 1971. Among the items purchased last year were more than 350,000 baseballs and softball and 7,000 additional pieces of equipment. The organization sponsors the Kid Glove Dugout Club which raises money to send special kids to the Reds' game. Kramer was former executive secretary of Knothole baseball. The baseball fi eld at St. Henry District High School is named after him, and the softball fi eld after his wife, Wink Kramer.

Another factor McDermott worked on was the physical advantage the Louisville powers usually have. A typical Assumption roster usually has multiple players on the fl oor over six feet tall, and last year’s state champions had one over 6-foot-3. When McDermott returned to NDA for the 2018 season, she worked on changing the Pandas’ scheme to counteract the size advantage the Louisville “big three” usually have. McDermott installed a system where the Pandas play quicker on off ense and defense, emphasizing shorter passes from the serve and shorter sets to hitters. McDermott said it took three full years for the Pandas to be at their peak with the schemes. “We’re playing a diff erent defense than they do at club,” McDermott said. “We were asking them to play a diff erent tempo at the pass. To compete with the Louisville teams, we have to be fast. We don’t’ always have the size that they do but we have the speed to compete.” Senior Anna Long signed with Florida State to play beach volleyball. Sydney Schroder signed with Florida Atlantic for beach volleyball. Signing to play the traditional indoor sport were Emma Grace with Xavier, Emily Wichmann with Oakland and Abby Powers with Robert Morris. Other seniors are Annashea Carlisle and Cate Scheper. McDermott had two fellow NDA standouts as assistant coaches in Les-

Schroder posted 59 kills and 34 blocks. Sophomore Kamden Schrand was fourth on the team in digs with 184. Leah Fortner and Tess Noll also played varsity time. McDermott credited the junior varsity players, who had to step in when the varsity was unable to play in the 35th District Tournament because of quarantine, and ending up winning the district championship.

COMMUNITY NEWS President and owner of NKY’s ATech Training says Girl Scouts helped prepare her as a female in STEM Walton, KY – How has Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road (GSKWR) Alum Laura Lyons changed the world? Easy, she was unafraid of being the only girl in the room. As president and owner of ATech Training, a Northern Kentucky manufacturing company in the automotive/diesel technology training market and an Army Veteran, Laura has often found herself as one of few females in her male-dominated fi eld, and she’s okay with that. Laura has always had the confi dence to pursue her unique interests, a skill that she attributes to her time in Girl Scouts. Growing up as a Girl Scout in Ft. Thomas and Erlanger, she was interested in problem solving and understanding the technical side of how things worked. After high school Laura pursued an Associate’s degree in Electrical Engineering Technical and a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science. As a way to help fund her education, Laura joined the Army, where she had the opportunity to move to Hawaii and work in Military Intelligence. Laura credits Girl Scouts for allowing her to gain confi dence in her ability to try new things and take pride in accomplishing her goals. She never really saw herself as being interested in business, but after she was able to sell the second highest amount of Girl Scout cookies in her area one year, she realized that she could try new things and succeed. Laura joked about the Girl Scout Cookie sales strategy that she roped her little sister into – realizing that people would buy more cookies when her adorable little sister tagged along! Jokes aside, Laura would go on to use the business skills that she learned through Girl Scouts in her future. After years spent on the technical side of her industry at R.A. Jones (a packaging machinery manufacturer) and ATech, Laura was asked to accept the role of President at ATech, shifting from a technical position to a leadership role. Laura’s vast life and professional experience prepared her for this new position. She went on to earn her Master of Business Administration degree and become not only the President, but also the owner of ATech. Laura is passionate about reminding girls and young women to pursue their unique interests. She recently worked on a project with a group of young Rosie’s Girls where ATech taught them how to build circuit boards and she noted how diligent and eager to learn the girls were. “You can pursue whatever your interests are. Men and women can work together in these fi elds,” said Laura. “Being the only female in the room means that you will stand out. This can be an advantage as you will be noticed when you speak or have an idea to off er.” she continued. We can thank trailblazers like Laura for showing us that girls and women don’t only have a place in STEM fi elds, but they off er critical leadership as STEM innovators, front-runners, and catalysts for advancement. Amy Greene, Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road

Holiday credit challenges It is the time of year when our wishes may be bigger than our wallets can aff ord. Stores may off er their own credit cards with the incentive of a percentage off of the purchase. In these pandemic times it may be tempting to sign up for a new credit card or use the ones you have to purchase holiday items. Credit can be expensive. Credit allows us to borrow money with the promise to pay it back later. But along with that promise, there is a cost. The two biggest costs of credit are fees and interest. Credit can seem like a quick fi x for money problems. However, poor use of credit can make a fi nancial situation worse for a long period of time. It may be wise to take a step back and analyze whether using credit, or signing up for a new credit card or loan, is the best choice for you and your family. Do I need this now? When it comes down to it, are you fi nancing something you truly need immediately? Or is it something that you would simply like to have now? If it is something you can wait to have, it often is more cost eff ective to save the money until you can pay outright. On larger purchases, such as a house or car, the more down payment you provide, the better deal you might get on your loan. For smaller purchases, it saves money in the long run to pay cash than to fi nance it on a credit card or through alternative lenders. How much more will I pay by using credit? Understand the terms of the credit off er. The two biggest costs of credit are fees and interest. Interest can be fi xed or variable. Use the annual percentage rate (APR) when comparing interest rates. It is a percentage that includes most fees and charges, as well as the eff ects of compounding, which is how interest can add up over time. The APR refl ects the total cost of interest you could be charged in a year. Lenders can charge fees on a wide range of credit services and products. Make sure you understand all the terms before committing. And also note whether the terms stay the same throughout or change over time. Paying the

balance off each month may be the only way to avoid fees and interest. Can I aff ord to pay this back? There is a cost for credit. You defi nitely should consider your current income and other commitments before signing up for new credit. However, it is smart to also consider “what if.” If something were to happen to change your income level, would you still be able to pay back the credit? Make sure you leave yourself enough room in your overall fi nances to still make your commitments if your circumstances change. It may be heart-wrenching to no provide the holiday you wish for in your mind for your family. However, during these diffi cult times everyone should be allowed a little grace and understanding that 2020 is unique.

NOTICE Please take notice that Duke Energy Kentucky, Inc. has applied to the Kentucky Public Service Commission for approval to revise its Demand Side Management (DSM) rate for gas service and electric service for residential and commercial customers. Duke Energy Kentucky’s current monthly DSM rate for residential gas customers is $0.030735 per hundred cubic feet and for non-residential gas customers is $0.000000 per hundred cubic feet. Duke Energy Kentucky’s current monthly DSM rate for residential electric customers is ($0.003143) per kilowatt-hour and for non-residential customers is $0.001768 per kilowatt-hour for distribution service and $0.000537 per kilowatt-hour for transmission service. Duke Energy Kentucky seeks approval to revise these rates as follows: Duke Energy Kentucky’s monthly DSM rate for residential gas customers would increase to $0.045817 per hundred cubic feet and for non-residential gas customers would remain at $0.000000 per hundred cubic feet. Duke Energy Kentucky’s monthly DSM rate for residential electric customers would increase to $0.002175 per kilowatt-hour and for non-residential customers would decrease to ($0.000868) per kilowatt-hour for distribution service and would decrease to $0.000218 per kilowatt-hour for transmission service. The rate contained in this notice is the rate proposed by Duke Energy Kentucky. However, the Public Service Commission may order a rate to be charged that differs from this proposed rate. Such action may result in a rate for consumers other than the rate in this notice. The foregoing rates reflect a proposed increase in electric revenues of approximately $1.93 million or 0.57% over current total electric revenues and an increase in gas revenues of approximately $0.94 million or 0.98% over current total gas revenues. A typical residential gas customer using 70 ccf in a month will see an increase of $1.05 or 1.5%. A typical residential electric customer using 1000 kWh in a month will see an increase of $5.65 or 6.1%. A typical non-residential electric customer using 40 kilowatts and 14,000 kWh will see a decrease of $40.35 or (3.2%). A non-residential customer served at transmission voltage using 10,000 kilowatts and 4,000,000 kWh will see a decrease of $887 or (0.4%). Non-residential gas customers will see no change in their bills from this application. Any corporation, association, body politic or person may by motion within thirty (30) days after publication or mailing of notice of the proposed rate changes, submit a written request to intervene to the Public Service Commission, 211 Sower Boulevard, P.O. Box 615, Frankfort, Kentucky 40602, and shall set forth the grounds for the request including the status and interest of the party. The intervention may be granted beyond the thirty (30) day period for good cause shown. Written comments regarding the proposed rate may be submitted to the Public Service Commission by mail or through the Public Service Commission’s website. A copy of this application filed with the Public Service Commission is available for public inspection at Duke Energy Kentucky’s office at 1262 Cox Road, Erlanger, Kentucky 41018 and on its website at http://www.duke-energy.com. This filing and any other related documents can be found on the Public Service Commission’s website at http://psc.ky.gov. CE-GCI0529765-01
