‘We don’t know how to step back’ Hospitals work to get TLC to stressed-out COVID-19 caregivers Terry DeMio Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Cyndi Reusch positioned herself beside the horse, stretched her arms around him as instructed and leaned into him for the belly hug. She stood there listening to his heartbeat, feeling his warmth.

“When I did that,” she says, “I just breathed.”

Reusch, a St. Elizabeth nurse, is among Greater Cincinnati frontline COVID-19 caregivers that have been off ered ways to pause, to refl ect, to express and to catch their emotional breaths. Across the region, hospitals are creating therapeutic programs, providing emotional support and off ering assistance to their staff s to ease pressures that come with caring for the sick and dying during a pandemic.

The healing time is essential, experts say, because the caregivers’ health is itself threatened by the novel coronavirus pandemic.

“Managing the emerging mental health issues among healthcare workers is imperative, particularly in the current COVID-19 pandemic crisis,” a review of the psychological impact of severe epidemics on healthcare workers concludes.

The study, published in December 2020 by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, called frontline COVID-19 caregivers a “highly vulnerable group.” During severe epidemics, healthcare workers can suff er from post-trauma stress, anxiety and depression, the report says. They may experience sleep disorders, headaches, lethargy and sore throats.

“We don’t know how to take care of ourselves,” said Reusch, a nurse in St. Elizabeth Fort Thomas Hospital’s department of interventional radiology.

“That’s not our job. We don’t know how to step back and say that, you know, ‘this morning is about me.’ “ She is one of about 40 St. E employees for whom, in March and April, the hospital system off ered “A Day of Healing” at Milestones Inc., a nonprofi t organization that off ers equine therapy in Independence.

At Milestones, an instructor matched each caregiver with a horse. Reusch was matched with Shiloh. She’d had a couple of horses years ago and says Shiloh was perfect for her.

For more than an hour, she connected with the horse: Brushing him. Walking with him and an instructor through an obstacle course, stopping while Shiloh hesitated to cross a bridge. Thinking – with help from an emotional therapist –

about her own obstacles during the pandemic. Gazing at the horse, adjusting her breathing to his. Being with Shiloh.

“I was focused,” Reusch said. “I was just, like, in my own little world, enjoying his company.”

At the pandemic’s start, area hospital administrators jumped in to support caregivers with little treats, care packages, food (often brought in by nearby restaurants), tip sheets for coping and more. Over time, each hospital system developed unique ways to support its caregivers.

At Christ Hospital, for example, “We’d hand-write little sticky notes …and stick them on windshields,” said Regina Shupe, Christ Hospital experience offi cer.

“We have to think creatively. We have to act creatively. We have to be fl exible in assisting our team members,” said David Cook, chief people offi cer at TriSee CAREGIVERS, Page 2A

NKU student Alyssa Wray voted off ‘American Idol’ on Disney night Sarah Brookbank and Charles Trepany Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Northern Kentucky University student Alyssa Wray was voted off “American Idol” on the May 2 episode.

The ABC reality singing competition returned May 2 with a live show that saw the top 10 perform songs from Disney movies.

The 19-year-old Perryville native dazzled with a magical performance of “A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes” from “Cinderella.”

Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan said

they were happy to see Wray save her belt and vocal acrobatics for the song’s end, while Katy Perry called the singer “elegant and elevated.”

“You are a permanent princess,” she added. “You will never turn back into a pumpkin.”

At the end of the episode, host Ryan Seacrest revealed, in no particular order, who was safe. It meant the end of the road for Wray and others.

Three contestants were eliminated May 2. They refl ected on their “Idol” journeys post-show, saying that their “Idol” experiences have boosted their confi dence.

“I came into this competition think-

ing that I just wasn’t worth anything,” said Wray. “These people, this competition, America — they’ve truly taught me that I am worth so much more than I could ever dream of and that I don’t have to do anything but be myself. I just have to do what I love and that is enough.”

We likely haven’t seen the last of Wray – she has set her sights on achieving EGOT status.

EGOT, an acronym for the Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Awards, applies to a performer who has won all four awards.

The Joint-Relief Secret of the “Oldest Bellman in Vegas”

Health.

As the pandemic settled in and hospitals continued to take on more COVID-19 patients, and more patients died, it became apparent that some frontline caregivers would need more substantial support.

“It’s diffi cult for every person,” Cook said. “Every person has diff erent needs.”

TriHealth set up a one-stop resource center, which off ered fi nancial help, childcare assistance and other support.

Since May 2020 4,000 team members have been helped, records show. That’s about a quarter of the TriHealth staff , Cook said. And for those who might not feel they had time to come forward, the hospital system provided “resource navigators,” who went out to the caregivers to check on them.

Christ Hospital checked on its staff with surveys designed to indicate stressors and compassion fatigue.

“It was just very clear, they were experiencing a signifi cant amount of trauma with the volume of patient deaths, getting to know their families,” said Christy Miller, Christ Hospital’s director of nursing research. Some were having nightmares, she said.

Miller was among Christ staff who checked in on the frontline workers with hospital walkabouts. Sometimes, the pastoral team joined in the employee visits. Frontline workers were also reminded that professional help was available for them.

“They are true warriors,” Miller said.

“They have battled this pandemic every day for the past year.”

“Your heart breaks for them.”

For the long haul, Christ Hospital fashioned special spaces called serenity lounges, blessed by the hospital’s pastoral team. There, caregivers can take a seat in a massage chair, experience aromatherapy and soothing music, get a beverage. There’s also a board for motivational messages.

These spaces, also called resiliency lounges, will remain available after the pandemic ends, Shupe said.

For Reusch, time at Milestones provided a respite from what felt like a continuous cascade of thoughts about work and a realization of how worn down she and her co-workers felt.

She met fi ve St. E nurses at the session. “Afterward, we stood around and talked, and a couple of them cried and shared some of their diffi cult moments.”

Reusch said her experience with Shiloh was profound. “I think about it all the time. It’s peaceful,” she said. “I try to relate it when I come home and process things.”

She gained so much, she said, that she found a way to extend her connection with Milestones: “I signed up to volunteer,” Reusch said.

Laughing, she added, “I don’t care if I have to muck the stalls or help groom.”

NKY man wins $1M off of scratch-off ticket Jared Goffinet Fox19

ALEXANDRIA, Ky. - A man has done the unimaginable by winning $1 million on a scratch-off ticket.

The Alexandria resident, who did not want to be identifi ed, said he is a frequent player of scratch-off tickets. He said he was feeling lucky on this particular day when he stopped to play.

He used the $100 he won on a previous ticket to buy the $20 200X ticket.

He matched a pair of sevens, which

won him $1 million.

“The clerk was shocked after he checked it for me,” the man said. “He suggested I scan it on the self-ticket checker just to be sure.”

The winner chose to take the lumpsum payment of $914,000 instead of the annual payments. He received a check for $648,940 after taxes.

He said the money will be used to cover medical bills, and the rest will go to the bank.

73-year-old Rene C., a bellman in Vegas, knows what a long day loading luggage, pushing it up ramps and down long hallways can feel like.

Yet he’s free of periodic aches and pains that plague his coworkers, those 20-30-40 years younger he calls his “kids.” Rene not only keeps up with them—he feels he out works them all!

Nothing Dr. Sears has seen has a 100% success rate easing exercise-related knee discomfort—numbers unseen by typical solutions… works 10 time faster than one of the most popular natural solutions… and is so safe and natural you can take it every day.

CAMPBELL RECORDER

He’s from NKY, won two Grammys. What’s next? There’s an app for that Armand Auclerc and DJ Corbett, two of the four core team members who launched The Melody App photographed inside of The Warehouse, an incubation space designed for people working in the creative industry.

Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Fresh off his second Grammy-winning project, Northern Kentucky native DJ Corbett has already moved on to his next big project.

It’s not an album, it’s the Melody App. The app makes it easier for artists and producers to fi nd loops – a backbone of song creation. The app also has an added bonus, it makes it easy to give credit where credit is due in the “wild wild west” of loop making.

“It’s basically us in app form,” Corbett said. “This is already what we do for a lot of other producers, like for Hit Boy. I’m sourcing ideas for him – these little building block ideas – handing them to him and he’s making these songs.”

While collaborating, Corbett was wondering how to make sharing loops easier than sending an email. The answer was the Melody App. The core team of the Melody App is Corbett, who acts as CEO; COO and producer Armand Auclerc; app designer and chief experience offi cer Jordan Crone, and their attorney Karl Fowlkes.

While there are other apps for loops, Corbett said he didn’t fi nd anything that was “laser streamlined” like Melody is.

He said other apps can be overwhelming and act more like websites, where Melody is built to be an easy-to-use app.

It’s like Tinder, if you swipe right, the loop saves. If you swipe left, you never hear it again. You can also easily share loops. The download is free and there’s a monthly subscription fee for usage.

“This app is an extension of how we exist in the music industry,” Corbett said. Corbet worked on “King’s Disease”

by Nas, which won the Grammy for Best Rap Album in 2021, and Nipsey Hussle’s “Racks in the Middle,” which won a Grammy for Best Rap Performance in 2020.

Check out my Melody Producers can also submit to be creators for Melody. When they opened applications on day one, more than 100 applied. Auclerc oversees those appli-

cations and onboards producers to Melody, which helps expand the loop library.

“It was more than we expected, especially for the fi rst day – I guess that’s a credit to us – but if somebody just launched something, I wouldn’t say ‘let me go apply for this random website,’ ” Auclerc said.

Aside from making loop-fi nding easy, it’s benefi cial in other aspects.

“There’s a lot of wildness in the melody or loop world. I think one of the benefi ts of this is that we’re helping put a foot down in the name of these producers,” Auclerc said.

Producers on Melody get paid through royalties. If an artist uses that beat, they’ve agreed to pay those royalties and give writing credits to those artists as well.

Other apps let you use and download loops for free, which can cause issues in the long run for artists.

“People make hit songs with royalty-

free loops. A lot. That happens a lot now,” Corbett said. “You could be driving in your car hearing your music, making no money.”

Corbett said artists can go uncredited on songs or those loops could be axed altogether on a track and get replaced.

Auclerc said some labels won’t use loops from websites that have given them trouble over credit and ownership.

“They’ll just completely kill the song,” Auclerc said. “There’s some 18year-old in their bedroom who could be this close to an opportunity and it just fades away. They have no idea.”

Melody currently has 19 million loop streams and 35,000 subscribers, according to a recent post on Facebook.

“We’re trying to shift the conversation in the wild wild west of loop making,” Corbett said.

More on the horizon Keep an eye on Corbett, because he’s

HARDWOOD & LUXURY VINYL

got his eyes set on the future.

“If all I ever did was just make songs with people, I would still just be happy doing that because it’s fun. I used to want so bad for just someone to rap with. Sometimes I lose that perspective with all this other stuff going on and the joy of it can go away,” Corbett said.

“When I think about making the beats in my mom’s house and then being here, it’s crazy. It’s amazing. We’re here talking about Grammys.”

He’s got big plans – from working on a documentary series on producers and creating music with artists to opening a “state of the art” studio in Northern Kentucky somewhere down the line.

Corbett and Auclerc both said it’s only a matter of time before someone local makes it big. “It feels like it’s close.

It’s getting closer and closer. Cincinnati’s the next one,” Auclerc said.

COIN SHORTAGE ZIP CODE DISTRIBUTION NOTICE

■ KENTUCKY AREA RESIDENTS CASH IN: Pictured above and watched closely by guards are protected U.S. Coin Packages containing the valuable unsearched Vault Bags that everyone will be trying to get. It’s hard to tell how much these unsearched bags loaded with rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued coins could be worth someday. That’s because each Vault Bag is known to contain nearly 3 pounds of U.S. Gov’t issued coins some dating back to the early 1800’s, so you better believe at just $980 these Unsearched Vault Bags are a real steal.

Decision puts valuable United States coins back in circulation – zip codes determine who gets them Unsearched Vault Bags loaded with rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued coins some dating back to the 1800’s and worth up to 50 times their face value are actually being handed over to residents who find their zip code on the Distribution List below and beat the 48 hour order deadline

Who gets the U.S. Gov’t issued coins: Only U.S. residents who find their zip code listed on the Distribution List below are getting the U.S. Gov’t issued coins. If you find your zip code listed below call: 1-800-868-9527 UV3948 “The vaults at Federated Mint are going empty,” said Mary Ellen Withrow, the emeritus 40th Treasurer of the United States of America.

That’s because a decision by Federated Mint to put rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued coins, some worth up to 50 times their face value, back in circulation means unsea rched Vault Bags loaded w ith U. S. Gov’t issued coins dating back to the 1800’s are now being handed over to U.S. residents who find their zip code listed in today’s publication.

“These are not ordinary coins you find in your pocket change. These are scarce, rarely seen, collectible and noncirculating U.S. coins dating back to the 1800’s, many of which are silver, so we won’t be surprised if thousands of U.S. residents claim as many as they can get their hands on. That’s because after the bags were loaded with nearly 3 pounds of U.S. Gov’t issued coins the dates were never searched and the bags were securely sealed. That means there’s no telling what you’ll find until you search all the coins,” said Withrow.

“But don’t thank the Government. As Executive Advisor to Federated Mint, I get paid to inform and educate the general public regarding U.S. coins. Ever since the decision by Federated Mint to put rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued coins back in circulation, I’m being asked how much are the unsearched Vault Bags worth?

The answer is, there’s no way to tell. Coin values always f luctuate and there are never any guarantees, but we do know this. Each unsearched bag weighs nearly 3 pounds and is known to contain rarely seen Morgan Silver Dollars and these coins alone could be worth $40 - $325 in collector value each according to The Official Red Book, a Guide Book of United States Coins. So there’s no telling what you’ll find until you search through all the coins. But you better believe at just $980 these unsearched Vault Bags are a steal, “said Withrow.

The only thing U.S. residents who find their zip code printed in today’s publication need to do is call the National Toll-Free Hotline before the 48-hour deadline ends.

This is very important. The Vault Bag fee has been set for $1,500 for residents who

miss the 48-hour deadline, but for those U.S. residents who beat the 48 -hour deadline the Vault Bag fee is just $980 as long as they call the National Toll-Free Hotline before the deadline ends. “ R emember th is , we ca n not st op col le c t or s f r om buy i n g up a l l t he unsearched bags of coins they can get in this special advertising announcement.

And you better believe with each bag being loaded with nearly 3 pounds of U.S. Gov’t issued coins we’re guessing they’re going to go quick,” said Withrow.

The phone lines will be ringing off the hook beginning at precisely 8:30am this morning. That’s because each unsearched

Vault Bag is loaded with over 100 highly sought a f ter col lector coi ns dati ng clear back to the 1800’s including iconic Morgan Silver Dollars, a historic Peace Silver Dollar, stunning Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars, the collectible Silver Eisenhower Dollars, spectacular Silver Liberty Head Half and Quarter Dollars, rarely seen Silver Franklin Half Dollars, high demand President Kennedy Silver Half Dollars, beautiful Silver Standing Liber t y Q ua r t er Dol la rs , A mer ica n Bicentennial Quarters, rare Liberty V Nickels, one cent Historic Wheat Coins including 1943 “Steel Cents”, one of the beautiful Winged Liberty Head Dimes,

scarce Indian Head one cent U.S. coins and the last ever minted Buffalo Nickels.

“With all these collectible U.S Gov’t Issued coins up for grabs we’re doing all we can to answer all the calls,” said Withrow.

Thousands of U.S. residents stand to miss the deadline to claim the valuable U.S. Gov’t issued coins. That means U.S. residents who find their zip code listed in today’s publication can claim the unsearched bags of money for themselves and keep all the U.S. Gov’t issued coins found inside.

Just be sure to call before the deadline ends 48 hours from today’s publication date. ■

New gastropub, beer garden coming to NKY Keith Pandolfi Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Covington's 2-year-old Tuba Baking Co. is relocating to Dayton, Kentucky, where it will expand into a “gastropub biergarten” concept, according to a press release from Dayton City Administrator Jay Fossett.

Tuba Baking will move into a building at 517 Sixth Ave., across the street from Dayton City Hall, sometime this summer.

Tuba owner Drew Rath said Tuba will focus on food and drinks from Germany, including German wines, ciders, beers, liquor and cocktails, and will feature a wood-fi red oven and outside beer garden.

And, of course, the Swabian-style

pretzels Tuba is known for.

“This will be one of the only Germanfocused bar concepts outside of Germany and will feature local plays on German varieties,” Rath said in the release. “The food will be a lot of what we have done at our Covington location but with more standards and a few rotating specials.”

“We’ll feature our sourdough Flammkuchen – in diff erent variations – baked in our wood-fi red oven, housemade spelt spatzle done diff erent ways, a few sandwiches on our own bread, house-made sausages, German-style salads, a kids menu featuring schnitzel strips, and some exciting things we can’t disclose just yet.”

The restaurant-bakery, which is scheduled to open this summer, will also feature German-baked goods.

“Some of our plans for this space will depend on how successful our GoFundMe fundraising eff orts are,” Rath said in the release. “We hope to make this a destination experience, connecting German Americans and non-German Americans with the awesome history of the early German immigrants to this area, much of which has been forgotten, and also connect people to the modern, ever-evolving German culinary scene.”

On the second fl oor of the building, Tuba Baking will continue its wholesale bakery business, which provides baked goods, including Swabian-style pretzels, to local breweries and restaurants. Unlike Bavarian pretzels, Swabian-style pretzels have skinner “arms” and a split belly, according to the release.

BRG Apartments will build 240 apartments near Amazon hub Chris Mayhew Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

BRG Apartments says it is building 240 one- and two-bedroom apartments in Burlington on Aero Parkway near Amazon’s air cargo hub development.

The new apartments will be at the northeast corner of Aero Parkway and Ky. 18, according to a BRG Apartments release.

Parkway Trails will be the name for the new apartments. The apartments are scheduled to be ready for people to move in by early 2022.

Offi cials from the company, the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce, and Boone County government offi cials broke ground for the project May 5.

“It is great to have a diversity of housing available to potential and current Boone County residents,” said Boone County Judge-executive Gary Moore in the release. “This tremendous project is another example of the growth we are

experiencing in Boone County.”

The apartment builder says the complex will have a bike trail, cyber cafe, clubhouse, swimming pool, fi tness center and outdoor exercise equipment.

Monthly rents at the apartments will start at $950 a month. Pre-leasing will start in the fall, according to the release.

Amazon is busy building a new 3 million-square-foot Prime Air cargo hub nearby off Aero Parkway at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport.

Kenwood-based BRG Apartments already owns and operates apartments elsewhere in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky in addition to apartments in the Dayton, Ohio area, Lexington and Georgetown, Kentucky, and in southern Indiana.

“We are looking at additional land in Boone County right now,” said Don Brunner, chief operating offi cer for BRG Apartments. “We hope this is the fi rst of many new developments for us here and in the tri-state area.”

Have you tried your hand at homemade bread?

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist

Have you tried your hand at homemade bread?

Some will answer with a defi nite “Yes.” Then there are others who think making bread is beyond daunting.

That’s why I wanted to share this recipe for Italian bread. The bonus? Tried and true. From a reader who started baking it during the pandemic and enjoyed the bread so much she makes it regularly.

“My family loves this easy Italian bread. No kneading,” she said.

Well, here’s my take. We may be at the end of the pandemic and still a bit anxious about it all, so do as I did – take a little time to make this bread. You’ll accomplish two things: therapy that comes from working with dough, and a lovely, tender loaf eaten warm from the oven. Better than store bought in my not so humble opinion.

This makes 2 loaves. They can be frozen. Make sure the bread is completely cool before wrapping for freezer.

No knead Italian bread Ingredients 2 packets active dry yeast,1/4 oz. each ⁄ 2 cup warm water (110-115 degrees)

1

Couple pinches sugar to feed yeast 2 cups warm water (110-115 degrees) 2-3 tablespoons sugar 2 1⁄ 2 to 3 teaspoons salt ⁄ 2 cup olive or vegetable oil

1

5-6 cups all purpose flour and bit more if needed

water, adding couple pinches sugar to “feed” yeast. It’s ready when foamy on top, a few minutes.

In mixer, combine 2 cups warm water, 2-3 tablespoons sugar, salt and olive oil.

Stir yeast in 1⁄ 2 cup warm

Divide in half.

No egg. Appearance will be matte like, not shiny, but nice.

Cover and let rise 30 minutes.

How warm is 110-115 degrees?

Preheat oven to 400.

Put a few drops on your wrist. If it it’s just right for a baby to drink from a bottle, you’re good to go.

Bake 25-30 minutes.

Gilding the lily: Brush with soft butter right after baking.

Add 2-3 cups more flour and mix until well blended. Dough will be sticky. Cover bowl and let rise 1 hour, or until just about doubled.

Instructions

Make shallow diagonal slashes on top. Every few inches is good.

Brush egg wash on bread if using.

Add 3 cups flour and and mix well. Stir in yeast mixture.

Punch down and dump out. If real sticky, add a few tablespoons of flour at a time. Work it in but you don’t have to knead dough. Not too much flour or bread will be dry.

Egg wash (optional but good - see tips)

The indentation remains when bread is risen properly. PHOTOS BY RITA HEIKENFELD FOR THE ENQUIRER

Egg washes: which is better?

Whisked egg white gives the most shine, with less coloring.

Making no knead Italian bread.

Roll each on floured surface, about 12x7”, using bit of flour if necessary.

Roll up, starting on long side. Place seam side down on parchment lined pan. Tuck ends under.

Whisked yolk with 2 teaspoons water gives glossy, golden yellow shine.

Whisked whole egg gives rich golden brown color.

How to tell if dough has doubled Rising times are guides.

Make indentation about 1/2” into dough. If indentation remains, dough has doubled.

For second rise after shaping, make small indentation in dough on its side.

If dent remains, dough is ready to bake.

Kenton County Commonwealth's Attorney Rob Sanders. MEG VOGEL/ THE ENQUIRER

Ruling makes it easier for DUI drivers to avoid charges, NKY prosecutor says Courtney King Fox19

One Northern Kentucky prosecutor says a recent state Supreme Court ruling threatens to make it far easier for DUI suspects to avoid charges.

The supreme court’s ruling last month prohibits warrantless blood tests from being used as evidence against DUI suspects in court.

Those in favor of the ruling, like Northern Kentucky defense attorney Wilber Zevely, say warrantless blood tests are intrusive.

“It should’ve been ruled that way years ago,” said Zevely, who specializes in DUI cases.

But Kenton County Commonwealth’s Attorney Rob Sanders said the ruling has thrown a “monkey wrench” into DUI prosecutions.

“Probably going to mean dozens, if not hundreds of DUI cases across Kentucky will be dismissed,” Sanders said.

Sanders said the ruling makes it harder for prosecutors to convict someone of a DUI because drivers can already refuse breathalyzers.

“Prosecutors rely on the blood test to say someone is, per se, drunk,” he said.

He adds offi cers can only get a warrant for a blood test if the driver caused

a death or serious injuries.

Without the blood tests in most cases, said Sanders, “We’d be asking jurors to look at a video and say, ‘Is this person drunk or no?’”

Zevely says he’s surprised the court ruled as it did, but he welcomes it. He draws attention to the part of the ruling that says not even a person’s refusal to take a blood test can be used against them, something he says prosecutors often introduce in court to sway juries.

“What they used to do is use the refusal as an indication of guilt and would say, ‘If you’re not guilty, why won’t you take the test?’” Zevely said. “And our Supreme Court said, and the U.S. Supreme Court said, it’s too much of an intrusion.

It’s not fair.”

Sanders said the ruling will put repeat DUI off enders back on the road.

“It’s something, quite frankly, the governor ought to call the legislation back in session for an emergency special session to fi x,” Sanders said. “That’s how big of a deal this is.”

Zevely says the governor has 21 days to seek object to the court’s ruling and seek a reversal, though he adds most of the time such objections are neither fi led nor granted.

Former Lloyd High School teacher pleads guilty to child pornography charges Quinlan Bentley Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A former substitute teacher at Lloyd High School in Erlanger is facing nearly a decade in prison after recently pleading guilty to child pornography charges.

Seydrick Walker, 29, of Crescent Springs, pleaded guilty on April 26 to four counts of promoting sex performance by a minor and the unlawful use of an electronic computer system to produce child pornography, according to the Kenton County Prosecutor’s Offi ce.

Walker was employed at the Erlanger-Elsmere Independent School District from October 2018 to May 2020.

In July 2020, he was arrested on fel-

ony charges of regarding the use of electronic communication to procure sex with a minor and the possession or viewing of child pornography.

Walker turned himself in to Erlanger police where he confessed to seeking sex from a 17-year-old girl who he knew was a student, according to court records.

Police were tipped off to Walker when a woman came to Erlanger Police Department to report that her daughter was talking to a male she recognized as a teacher using Facebook messenger, according to court records.

Prosecutors have recommended that Walker serve a sentence of eight years in prison.

Final sentencing has been set for May 24.

NKY man arrested on child pornography charges Quinlan Bentley Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Police said Hennig and the girl individually made videos of themselves “performing sexually explicit acts” from their respective locations.

Hennig is currently being held at the Kenton County Jail on a $25,000 bond, according to jail records.

Two Northern Kentucky senior standouts and one rising sophomore won state championships April 24 in the Kentucky High School Athletic Association swimming championships.

Highlands senior Mac Russell won two events, and Beechwood senior Eli Shoyat won one.

Notre Dame sophomore Lainy Kruger claimed a championship in the girls meet April 24.

Northern Kentucky’s state qualifi ers competed at Union College, one of three sites that hosted the state championships. Times from the competitions at the three sites were combined to determine championships and scoring.

Russell, who has signed with Kentucky, won the 50-yard freestyle for the second straight year. He also won the 100 freestyle, giving him three career championships.

He won the 50 free in 20.34 seconds, meeting the All-American standard.

Russell won the 100 freestyle in 44.66 seconds, beating senior teammate Jack Banks by 0.28 seconds. Both of them made the All-American standard cut.

Shoyat, a Louisville signee, won the 500 freestyle in 4:24.39, winning by 4.52 seconds and meeting the AllAmerican standard. He was 1.39 seconds off the state record. Shoyat also fi nished second in the 200 freestyle Highlands fi nished second in the team standings to powerhouse St. Xavier, which continued its 30-plus year streak of team titles. Covington Catholic fi nished fourth.

Russell and Banks helped the Bluebirds fi nish second in two of the three relays.

Junior Sam Jones also won four medals for the Bluebirds, including two topseven solo fi nishes.

Covington Catholic fi nished fourth in the state. Seniors Parker Knollman and Patrick Lester won three medals apiece, two in solo events.

Conner senior Brandon Thomas won two state medals, including a fourthplace fi nish in the individual medley.

NDA’s Kruger won the 100-yard breaststroke April 24 in 1:01.85, meeting the All-American time standard.

She fi nished second in the 100 freestyle, swimming it in 49.67, just 0.09 seconds off of the previous state record, set last year by Assumption’s Ella Welch, who shattered it April 24 to win the event again. Kruger set a school record in the event.

Ryle fi nished in fourth place in the girls standings to win a team medal, fi nishing just half a point ahead of fi fth place Christian Academy-Louisville.

Dixie Heights teammates savor state tourney run Shelby Dermer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

In 2021, Lockard and Reinhart helped author one of the best seasons in program history. The Colonels won 22 consecutive games and made the state tournament for the fi rst time in 29 years. PROVIDED BY LACI REINHART

Sydney Lockard and Laci Reinhart have been friends and basketball teammates for more than a decade.

But, on this night, they’re enemies.

It’s Feb. 13, 2018, and for the fi rst time, the inseparable duo is wearing clashing jerseys. Six months earlier, Reinhart told Lockard that she was transferring from Dixie Heights to Scott.

“Telling Sydney was the hardest thing,” Reinhart remembers. “Immediately it was tears and it all came out.”

It’s a battle between two clubs each with aspirations of postseason runs — Dixie Heights at 18-8 and Scott at 15-11 — and two freshmen who never imagined they’d be on opposing sides.

“It was very competitive,” Lockard said. “There was one point I ended up guarding her and I was like, ‘Oh gosh!’ It was not something I wanted to go through.”

Reinhart scored 10 points to Lockard’s seven, helping steer the Eagles to a

77-72 victory.

But, things didn’t seem right.

“It was like it didn’t fi t,” Reinhart said.

“Right after we played that game, I kind of felt like I needed to go back because she has impacted my life so much.

“I can’t play basketball without her.”

An early love for the game Their bond started out in cheer, then they were the only girls on an all-boys basketball team. When they joined forces to play at Caywood Elementary School, a friendship that centered around the game was formed.

After playing at Turkey Foot Middle School in Edgewood, they were thrust into varsity basketball together as wideeyed seventh-graders, but they were in it together.

“We’ve always had big hearts for the game and it started at a young age,” Reinhart said.

The duo played sparingly in 2016, See TEAMMATES, Page 2B

WV senior Moore to wrestle in Hungary James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

From the beginning, Spencer Moore has spent his wrestling career in rare company, and that has continued since the end of the Kentucky High School Athletic Association season.

In late April, he won the Cadet Freestyle National Championship at 55 kilograms and will be competing in the world championships this summer in Budapest, Hungary.

“It’s really cool,” he said. “It’s exciting to have my fi rst time out of the country and wrestle, get to do the thing I love. I got so many texts and messages congratulating me. It made me feel so good knowing that the entire community was behind me.”

He became the second Northern Kentucky wrestler to qualify for the world championships. The fi rst one was Sean Fausz, a Campbell County graduate who won two state championships for the Camels and qualifi ed for the NCAA Tournament four times while at North Carolina State. Fausz is now an assistant coach at Cal Poly.

Moore and Fausz used to live across the street from each other in Alexandria

before the Moores moved to Walton.

Moore has since made his own mark in Walton.

“I’ve never seen a kid train or work as hard as he does,” said WV head coach John Roth. “He’s made the standard for all Walton athletes. If you want to go to the next level: goal setting, hard work, he’s the standard.”

Moore fi nished 27-0 this season, winning his second state championship to fi nish the year, and has not lost a match in the past two seasons. Roth

then were regulars as eighth-graders in 2017, helping lead Dixie Heights to another district championship despite another fi rst-round exit in the Ninth Region tournament.

But there were still four more years left. They would both would start as freshmen and lead the Colonels to new heights.

Then, Lockard’s phone rang.

“She said, ‘I need to talk to you,’ which is never a good start,” Lockard said. “She had been thinking a lot and that it would be best for her to go away.”

Both grew during their time apart.

Lockard led Dixie Heights to a district title and its fi rst regional tournament victory since 2003.

Reinhart averaged a career-high 8.8 points and helped Scott reach the regional championship game.

But distance, as the old trope goes, makes the heart grow fonder. In a year, Reinhart made a new call.

“She, again, started with, ‘I need to talk to you’,’ but it turned out a lot better,” Lockard laughed, referring to the news that Reinhart was coming back to Dixie Heights. “It was a very joyful thing to hear.”

With the one-year hiatus behind them, they formed a new goal: Rupp Arena and the KHSAA Sweet 16. For their journey to mean even more, the two would have to do something special — and Dixie Heights hadn’t been to the state tournament since 1992.

“I told her that we were gonna go to state one of these years We didn’t want to do it alone; we wanted to do it together,” Reinhart said.

said he has not allowed an opponent to score on him in those two years other than intentionally giving them a point for an escape so he can get the other wrestler on their feet.

Moore studies his opponents and is one of the best in tactics, Roth said.

“His mat awareness,” Roth said.

“Spencer is so smart. He knows his competition and what he needs to execute. If we’re in a tight dual match and he needs bonus points, he knows how to get them. He knows when he needs to score. If he’s on the line, he never panics; he doesn’t worry about his opponent going out of bounds. He creates that position where his opponent is not going to escape.”

Moore used those skills to win the national tournament.

“I try to wrestle to have fun and enjoy it, and (in) some of these matches I knew the guy was good at certain things so I had to adjust,” he said. “It’s fun to just watch matches and truly learn about wrestling and every little aspect about what a guy is going to do going in.”

Moore, originally part of the Class of 2022, has a 4.0 GPA. He will graduate early and head to wrestle for the University of North Carolina. UNC returns two

All-Americans including a national champion from this past season.

“They have great Olympic coaches, national coaches,” Moore said. “I can’t wait to get there and learn everything I can.”

Roth said: “They are going to get a home run with him. It will be bittersweet because we’re losing him but it’s a blessing. He will accomplish huge things at the next level, no doubt in my mind.”

Moore’s father, Jason, also an assistant coach at WV, has a wrestling practice facility at their home. Walton-Verona doesn’t have a dedicated practice facility for wrestling, something Roth hopes they get eventually.

Walton has had eight state champions, including Moore’s older brother, Ryan, who won twice and was just named an NAIA All-American at Thomas More University. WV has a team regional championship and multiple team trophies at the KHSAA meet.

Roth said Moore’s attitude will serve him well at UNC. “He’s humble,” Roth said. “He’s not going to walk around school hallway saying hey I’m a twotime state champ. You may never know he’s done that stuff unless his coaches and friends talk about it.”

love the game so much and it hit me extra hard. It was the most diffi cult time of my life.”

With a shelved sidekick, Lockard managed a career-high 14.6 points and led Dixie Heights to another district title. Again, though, the Ryle machine stood in the way, sending the Colonels home in the regional tournament.

It was do-or-die — one year remaining.

“She kept saying, ‘I’m taking this year off , but we’re coming for state our senior year,’” Lockard said.

cruised to a district championship and handled Cooper and Highlands in the regional tournament, setting up a date with Notre Dame with Lexington on the line.

Looking back, the game feels like a blur — two heavyweights going blow for blow, trying to be the last one standing.

It slowed down when Notre Dame’s desperation heave clanked off the rim.

Final score: Dixie Heights 45, Notre Dame 43. They had done it.

“That is my all-time favorite moment,” Reinhart said. “To share that with my best friend who I’ve been playing with since we were 4, I couldn’t put it into words. We were crying in each other’s arms.”

Lockard added: “That celebration is what I’ll remember most from Dixie Heights with her. To have accomplished that together, it’s just really special.”

A special season

As sophomores, they were one game away, losing to Ryle in the regional championship. There was a deadline: two years left to manifest a shared dream, and Reinhart wanted a bigger role.

“I trained that whole summer and I was doing so good when I came back.”

One week before the season-opener, Reinhart ran into a screen at practice and went down hard, holding her right knee.

“I knew it wasn’t good,” Lockard said.

She had torn her ACL. That night was full of emotions.

“I stayed with her that night and she was just going through it.”

Being a bystander was oftentimes harder than rehab.

“I couldn’t go to some games because I’d sit there and cry,” Reinhart said. “I

After nine months of recovery, Reinhart was medically cleared last August to suit up for her senior year.

A few weeks later, Lockard committed to Kentucky Wesleyan. Eight days before the start of the season, Reinhart announced her commitment to Georgetown.

The glory of high school sports is temporary. The highest of highs are always balanced out by an unavoidable end.

In six months, Batman & Robin will go their separate ways, join diff erent programs and form new bonds with new teammates after growing up together on and off the court.

“It’s just gonna be so diff erent,” Lockard said. “It’s something I’m gonna have to get used to, especially her not being around to motivate me.”

There was no time to dwell on the predestined end. They had one fi nal shot.

Dixie Heights hosted Ryle in its home-opener, the pesky, well-oiled machine that consistently kept the Colonels from greatness. Ryle won by 18.

‘I knew it wasn’t good’

‘She’s my rock’ Not all ending are storybooks, though. Sports are a good reminder of that. Dixie Heights’ season ended nine days later at Rupp Arena after a fi rstround loss. Lockard and Reinhart, along with Makenna Teeters, said their goodbyes.

“We both said that we loved each other. I told her I’d always be there and be her No. 1 supporter,” Reinhart said.

“She’s my rock.”

The countdown is on until the two leave for the next level. They’re “always together” and will forever be close, bonded by the game they fell in love with as kids — competitive 1-on-1 sessions and reminiscing of this season’s state tournament run will be a staple of their lives for years to come.

As it should be.

COMMUNITY NEWS Esperanza Center wins NKY Speed Philanthropy Grant Give Where You Live NKY giving circle members gathered on March 18 to give $6,500 to Esperanza Latino Center in a process that took less than an hour.

The grant kicks off a year of quarterly meetings that have, since launching, brought more than $50,000 in awards from the giving circle’s members to Northern Kentucky nonprofi ts.

“There is something so exciting about charitably-minded neighbors coming together from across Northern Kentucky to give together like this,” said Horizon Community Funds President Nancy Grayson. “Each $100 gift could certainly make an impact if our members chose their own organization to give to, but by coming together they are able to support an organization through a gift of thousands of dollars. Give Where You Live is a fun, casual way to learn about local nonprofi ts, and in so many cases, surprise these nonprofi ts with grants.”

Give Where You Live NKY is a joint initiative presented by Horizon Community Funds of Northern Kentucky and Mueller Financial, Inc., and its format lends itself to busy community members who are looking for an easy way to give back to nonprofi ts that serve Boone, Campbell, and Kenton counties.

“Muchísimas gracias to Horizon Community Funds, Mueller Financial, Inc., and everyone that is involved with the Give Where You Live NKY initiative,” said Esperanza Latino Center Executive Director Reid Yearwood. “We have recently opened our center fulltime in order to successfully handle the demand for assistance and programs from the community we serve. This incredibly generous grant will provide us the opportunity to dramatically expand and improve our educational programs and resource connection services. We are extremely fortunate to be located in a community with such generous and progressive-minded organizations, and we commend your support of the Latino/Hispanic and immigrant community of Northern Kentucky. Mil gracias!”

The remaining 2021 Give Where You Live NKY meetings will be held on June 17 at Union 42 Bourbon & Brews, September 16 at Wooden Cask Brewery, and Dec. 9 at Molly Malone’s— all on Thursdays, all from 6-7 p.m.

The community can get involved by reaching out to Tess Brown at tbrown@horizonfunds.org or 859.620.8221, or by visiting www.nkygives.org.

Give Where You Live NKY members announce the winner of their March 2021 meeting, Esperanza Latino Center of Northern Kentucky. Give Where You Live is a local giving circle that meets every quarter, and is open to the community. PROVIDED

“It was exciting to be able to host a partially in-person event for our 2021 Kick-off round,” said Mueller Financial Partner Woody Mueller. “We are thrilled for the Esperanza Latino Center to be awarded the funds, and look forward to seeing the impact it will make within our wonderful Northern Kentucky Community.”

The giving circle runs on a tight schedule at each meeting. Participating members nominate a nonprofi t of their choice, and three names are randomly selected and briefl y discussed by the group. The members then vote on their favorite of the three organizations, and each member contributes $100 for the grant to the winning organization. All takes place in under an hour, just four times per year.

The format of Give Where You Live NKY also provides a way to connect funds to nonprofi ts without the need for nonprofi ts to expend fi nancial resources and staff time on fundraising.

The previous winners of Give Where You Live grants include The Scheben Care Center in Florence; The Gateway Community and Technical College Foundation, which has campus sites across Northern Kentucky; Lucky Tales Rescue in Fort Thomas; Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library in Covington; Northern Kentucky Children’s Advocacy Center in Florence; Family Nurturing Center in Florence; GO Pantry in Florence; The Barracks Project in Covington; Covington Partners in Covington; and, Emergency Shelter of Northern Kentucky in Covington.

Transplanting tips for vegetable and flower gardens If you are growing your own vegetables and fl owers transplants or purchasing them from a garden center these plants will most likely be “tender” (stems and leaves can be easily broken or damaged) because they have been grown in a controlled environment such as a greenhouse.

Planting these transplants directly into your garden site can result in transplant shock and sometimes death of transplants or at least reduced growth and vigor Sorrell for the fi rst couple of weeks. To reduce transplant shock, follow these transplanting tips.

When the chance of frost has passed (usually around mid-May in Northern KY) it is time to think about transplanting your young plants to the garden.

About two weeks before you do that, you should harden (toughen) them off to help them withstand the outside environment. To do so, begin reducing water and fertilizer (but do not let them dry out) and expose them to lower temperatures by taking your plants outside.

Bring them in at night if the temperature is expected to drop into the 40s.

Also expose them gradually to brighter and brighter light outside. Start off protecting them from strong midday sun and then over the course of a few days move them into full sun conditions.

Transplanting will temporarily check a plant’s growth. Therefore, for successful transplanting, try to interrupt plant growth as little as possible. Follow these steps when transferring them to your garden: 1. Transplant on a shady day in late afternoon or in early evening to prevent wilting.

2. Soak transplants’ roots thoroughly an hour or two before setting them in

the garden.

3. Handle the plants carefully. Avoid disturbing the roots. It is better to grasp plants by their leaves than their tender stems.

4. Dig a hole large enough to hold the roots. For most plants, keep the soil depth similar to how they were previously growing. Tomatoes and peppers can be transplanted more deeply, since they develop roots on parts of the stem that is submerged in the soil. Press soil fi rmly around the roots.

5. Pour one cup of water around each plant and for a bonus start add some soluble fertilizer to the water (follow label directions).

6. Put more soil around each plant leaving a slight depression for water to collect.

7. Water the plants once or twice during their fi rst week in the garden. If you did not fertilize at planting, add fertilizer to the water at some point during the fi rst week or so of growth. Follow fertilizer label directions for when to add additional fertilizer.

8. Watch your garden grow.

Additional planting tips for vegetable gardens include: 1. May 5 is the earliest date that’s somewhat “safe” for planting tomatoes but be ready to cover them with boxes through mid-May just in case we have an unusually late freeze. Good tomato varieties for home gardens include: Big Beef, Better Boy, Celebrity, Jet Star, Heavy Weight, Pink Girl, Mountain Fresh, and Roma VF. 2. May 10 is the earliest somewhat “safe date” for setting out pepper transplants. Good, sweet peppers include North Star, Merlin, King Arthur, Boynton Bell, Gypsy Hybrid, Mandarin (orange color), Purple Beauty, and Banana Supreme.

3. Other “earliest semi-safe planting dates” include May 1 for lima beans and cucumbers; May 5 for watermelons, and Southern peas; and May 10 for eggplant, muskmelons, okra, sweet potatoes, and squash.

4. For staggered harvest of sweet corn, make plantings every 2 or 3 weeks through July 10.

5. Make plantings of green beans in mid-May through mid-June.

Dr. Larkin earned his bachelor’s degree and his MD from the University of Kentucky in Lexington. He completed a dual internship and residency at the prestigious Yale New Haven Hospital in Connecticut.

Dr. Larkin then moved to the Greater Cincinnati area to complete a fellowship in sports medicine & orthopedic surgery at the Cincinnati Sports Medicine Midwest Institute for Orthopaedics.

Beyond his dedicated patient-specific care, Dr. Larkin is also a leader in the professional medical community in both Ohio and Kentucky.

He is the Past Chairman of the Ohio Governor’s Advisory Board for Workers’ Compensation.

Cincinnati in 1802 FILE

Cincinnati’s lost founding father never saw settlement Jeff Suess Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

John Filson was one of the founding fathers of Cincinnati, but he never saw it.

In 1788, he was a partner in a venture to start up a settlement along the Ohio River. Filson had completed the initial survey of the basin where Cincinnati would later set and had contributed a name. He called it Losantiville.

Then, Filson disappeared in the wilderness near the Great Miami River before the fi rst settlers arrived.

Much of what is known of Filson’s early life has been cobbled together with conjecture. It is supposed he was born about 1747 (one biography says 1753) in Chester County, Pennsylvania.

A historic register lists a John Filson as an ensign with the Pennsylvania 1st Regiment Flying Camp during the Revolutionary War who was injured and taken prisoner during the Battle of Fort Washington in New York in 1776.

The portrait of Filson is based on a sketch found on the fl yleaf of a book with his name next to it.

He was a teacher and surveyor in Pennsylvania. In about 1782 he acquired some land in Kentucky, which was then part of Virginia.

He relocated to Lexington where he taught school and traveled throughout the region, chronicling his meetings with the early settlers, including a fellow called Daniel Boone.

In 1784, Filson published the book “The Discovery, Settlement and Present State of Kentucke” along with an invaluable map.

“When I visited Kentucke, I found it so far to exceed my expectations, although great, that I concluded it was a pity; that the world had not adequate information of it,” Filson wrote. “I conceived that a proper description, and map of it, were objects highly interesting to the United States…”

The book and map sold for $1.50. There were 1,500 sold. Filson asked George Washington to write a letter for a second edition, but the general politely declined because the map wasn’t based on surveys.

A portrait purported to be John Filson, who was one of the co-founders of Cincinnati, appeared in “History of Kentucky” by Connelley and Coulter (1922). FILE

The most remarkable part of the book was the appendix, containing “The Adventures of Col. Daniel Boon” (the spelling of his name hadn’t been formalized). Filson had listened to Boone’s stories and “published them from his own mouth.”

The book established Boone’s legend, tales of rescuing his daughter and two women who had been abducted by Shawnee warriors, of being captured and adopted into a Shawnee tribe, of his escape and defense of Fort Boonesborough and of the defeat at Blue Licks, the last major battle of the Revolutionary War.

Founding Losantiville

Filson entered a partnership with Mathias Denman and Col. Robert Patterson in August 1788 to start a new settlement. Denman had purchased 747 acres from John Cleves Symmes, who owned more than 300,000 acres in what is now Hamilton, Butler and Warren counties.

Denman was a land prospector from New Jersey, Patterson a colonel in the Kentucky militia who had helped establish Lexington. Filson was brought in as a surveyor with the hope that he could write something to drum up interest from prospective settlers.

They placed an ad in the Kentucky Gazette: “The subscribers, being proprietors of a tract of land opposite the mouth of the Licking river, on the northwest side of the Ohio, have determined to lay off a town upon that excellent location. The local and natural advantages speak its prosperity, being equal if not superior to any on the banks of the Ohio between the Miamis. ...”

Filson concocted the name Losantiville from several languages (“L” for Licking, “os” is Latin for mouth,

“anti” is Greek for opposite and “ville” is French for city), meaning “city opposite the mouth of the Licking River.”

Historian Lewis Collins called Losantiville “a pedagogical and unmusical name” and wrote, “The invention of such a name was positively cruel in Mr. Filson; we hope it had no connection to his early death.”

On or near Oct. 1, 1788, Filson accompanied Symmes to survey more of the territory, including what would become North Bend. Filson became separated from the party and was left alone in the woods near the Great Miami River. He was never seen again.

Everyone presumed he was killed by hostile Shawnee, but his body was never found.

Israel Ludlow replaced Filson as partner and surveyor of Losantiville. Flatboats arrived at the Ohio River shore on Dec. 28, 1788. Ludlow made his own plan of the new settlement, and that is what was used.

In 1790, Gen. Arthur St. Clair, the president of the Northwest Territory, came to inspect the new Fort Washington.

He disliked the name Losantiville and offi cially named the settlement Cincinnati after the Society of the Cincinnati, an organization of Continental Army offi cers that took inspiration from Roman leader Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus, who gave up power to return to farming. Washington was called the American Cincinnatus.

“The governor has made Losantiville, the county town, by the name of Cincinnati, so that Losantiville will become extinct,” Symmes wrote.

Filson is remembered more as the fi rst Kentucky historian than for his role in founding Cincinnati. The Filson Historical Society in Louisville is named for him.

But there is a tiny lane off Celestial Street in Mount Adams called Filson Place with an incredible view of downtown Cincinnati.
