Florence Northern Kentucky part of resurgent hemp market couple
alleges wrongful arrest by deputies
Chris Mayhew Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
FLORENCE – Hemp extract producer Amy Miles carries a permit around to make sure police know the marijuana look-a-like plants she carries are not pot. Confusion betweenindustrial hemp and marijuana – the two are not identical – led the owner of Florence-based Kentucky Naturals to give a public library presentation on the topic. Her company was founded in 2016. Hemp, legalized in the 2014 U.S. Farm Bill, looks and smells nearly the same as a marijuana plant, which is in the hemp plant family. Kentucky law allows farmers to grow only hemp plants with less than 0.3 percent TCH, or tetrahydrocannabinol, the ingredient in marijuana that can create a drugged high. Farmers and producers like Kentucky Naturals have to submit their plants and products for TCH testing before harvest or sale. Miles, an Edgewood resident, is one of two hemp processing permit-holders in Northern Kentucky out of 57 in the state, according to Kentucky Department of Agriculture records. Florencebased Pharms LLC is the only other hemp processor in Northern Kentucky. Miles makes tinctures and other cannabinoids (CBD) hemp oil extract as a natural method to reduce anxiety and pain, as a sleep aid and to reduce nausea. She even has products to help pets with anxiety. “We have over thought this plant," Miles said. "Yet we’ll take a pharmaceutical product that’s going to possibly give you diarrhea and headaches without a thought." Hemp was once a mainstay in Kentucky agriculture. Kentucky hemp fibers were used, starting in the mid-1700s, to make ropes and ship sails, according to "The Kentucky Encyclopedia." Before the farm bill in 2014, hemp came under attack with the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act and was outlawed with the Controlled Substance Act of 1970. The 1937 act followed on the heels of the 1936 film “Reefer Madness,” a propaganda campaign claiming marijuana cigarettes led teens to kill and commit sex crimes. Today, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., is working to pass a new farm bill to take hemp plants off the list of the Drug Enforcement Administration's controlled substances list. McConnell said it's past time farmers be allowed to capitalize on "a multibillion market" with proper oversight.

The senator introduced the bipartisan Hemp Farming Act of 2018 to legalize industrial hemp and define it as an agricultural commodity. Kentucky's hemp pilot program, advocated by the prior and current agricul-
ture commissioners, has yielded strong results, McConnell said in an April 5 opinion column. McConnell said hemp yielded $16 million for Kentucky farmers in 2016 – and could be a replacement crop for tobacco for Kentucky. Hemp fiber is used to make concrete and homes, according to a 2010 USA Today story. People have come up with 25,000 uses for hemp including an airplane made out of hemp in 2015. McConnell is pushing to get hemp declassified as a DEA controlled substance in a 2018 Farm Bill that has yet to become law. “Outdated policies should not stand in the way of our American farmers growing a crop that is already used to make products sold all across the U.S,” McConnell said in June 2018 as part of a U.S. Senate resolution declaring a "Hemp History Week."

Boone County deputies allegedly falsely arrested and imprisoned a Florence couple in 2016, resulting in a $99,000 settlement shelled out by the county’s insurance carrier. One deputy testified he arrested a woman in part because “she was in my space.” Another is no stranger to bringing scrutiny to the sheriff ’s office, as his past actions in an unrelated case left a woman dead and his employer with a $3.5 million bill. Despite this more recent settlement, finalized in late July, the three officers involved adamantly maintain they did nothing wrong, according to their attorney, Jeffrey Mando. But court documents, including hundreds of pages of deposition transcripts, raise questions about their tactics and decision-making, including an alleged effort by two of them to inflate their portrayal of events to a supervisor to justify the arrests. Melissa Covington, the woman arrested in this case, is a 44-year-old daughter of a former Fort Wright police officer. She’s supported the Blue Lives

Matter movement in the past. She has a different outlook now. “Our front porch turned into North Korea,” said the Florence woman by phone Thursday. “... How many other people have they done this to?” By the end of the ordeal, she and her husband, Donald Covington Jr., 48, would be in cuffs – he yanked from his home by his wrist and while in his underwear, he testified, and she locked up in a cell for 18 hours, too afraid to use the bare toilet in view of other inmates for the duration, and refusing to eat to prevent bowel movements. It began around 11 p.m. one night in February 2016. Three deputies converged on the Covingtons’ home, where Melissa Covington lived with her husband and son, Donald Covington III, or Donnie. Donnie, then 24, had a warrant. He owed about $300 in court fees for previous charges, for which he’d already served time, though the family wouldn’t learn this until after they were all arrested. Donnie had been sober since his release, his mother said, and working hard to stay that way. Incarceration, to her, represented triggers that could lead to a relapse. The three deputies, Melissa Covington believes, didn’t come to her home solely in pursuit of an everyday arrest. They wanted payback for a previous interaction with Donnie. Deputy Jonathan Ball told his partners, Tyler Brockman and Wesley Mackey, in a meeting beforehand, that Donnie had fled from Ball before, according to Mackey’s deposition. Ball testified he asked Brockman to join him “due to him (Donnie) fleeing from us in the past.” Brockman’s actions have cost the sheriff ’s office in the past. In 2014, he shot and killed a 19-yearold woman, who worked at a local preschool, in her vehicle. Samantha Ramsey’s surviving family and her passengers reached a $3.5 million settlement with the Boone County Sheriff ’s Office in late 2016. Brockman was checking drivers’ sobriety outside a party when he approached Ramsey, who he said didn’t comply with his commands. He said he jumped on her hood to avoid being pinned or run over. Then he shot at her several times through her windshield as he felt the vehicle accelerate beneath
him. About two years later, outside the Covingtons’ home, Brockman positioned himself “out back” with a dog, “as a deterrent” should anyone attempt to flee, ac- Boone County cording to his de- Sheriff’s Deputy Tyler Brockman position. “They came here PROVIDED with the attitude that: ‘This little punk kid is going to run again,’” Melissa Covington said. “‘We’re going to get him, take him down. He’s nothing but scum.’” The confrontation escalated quickly. Melissa Covington opened the door, revealing the deputies on her property. They wrongly said they were after her husband, who shares her son’s name, she said. Later, they said they were actually there for her son. But they wrongly listed Donnie’s past crimes, which the family had thought were behind them, as the reason for their visit, according to Melissa Covington. It shocked her. Donnie had already served time and been released for those crimes. Melissa Covington said she questioned the deputies, asking why her son was being punished for the same thing twice. Brockman, in his deposition, said she cursed and stated Donnie would not be taken to jail. Melissa Covington called that portrayal false. She said she was only asking questions to understand why the officers were there to whisk her son away. “I would never in my life talk to a police officer that way,” she said. “That would be like disrespecting my father’s position.” Donnie dressed and came outside. Ball testified that he arrested him. Shortly afterward, Melissa Covington stepped outside her house, onto her porch, saying nothing, she said, when she was grabbed, her arm twisted and pushed upward. The arresting officer disputed this. She was incredulous: the daughter of an officer, who idolized police to a degree, being arrested she believed without cause. Mackey, who arrested her, was asked in his deposition if Melissa Covington used her body in a physically aggressive way, prompting the arrest. “Yeah,” he said, “she was in my space.” Brockman, who testified that he told Mackey to detain Melissa Covington,
said in the moment preceding she had taken a step toward her son. “I wasn’t going to let her take two,” Brockman testified, adding he had to stop Melissa CoBrockman shot vington from preand killed venting the three Samantha deputies from takRamsey. PROVIDED ing Donnie in. He also testified Donnie was off the porch at this point. Melissa Covington testified Donnie was handcuffed and under Ball’s watch as she was arrested. Neither Mackey nor Ball could recall if Donnie was handcuffed. Ball couldn’t recollect much during the deposition. He said “I don’t recall” 200 times, according to Adam Gerhardstein, the Covingtons’ attorney. He called it a staggering display of ignorance. With Melissa Covington in cuffs, her husband protested from the doorway, she said. Melissa Covington said Mackey put his hand on his gun. Donald Covington Jr. asked if he’d be shot in his own home. Then Brockman twirled his index finger as if signaling Mackey to arrest him, Donald Covington Jr. testified. Mackey grabbed his wrist to pull him from his home, Donald Covington Jr. testified, and arrested him. Husband and wife, who wanted to protect their son, would be charged with disorderly conduct. Donnie was, too. Ball testified that a porch is not a public place, yet he agreed that one must be in a public place to be arrested for disorderly conduct. He couldn’t recall in court if the Covingtons did anything violent, threatening or hazardous that night. Brockman identified “society” as a victim of Melissa and Donald Covington Jr. It was “bedtime,” he testified, “... for the general population.” And, Brockman said, Donald Covington Jr. was being loud. “There was no victim,” countered Gerhardstein. “They were arrested for questioning police officers who show up to their house in the middle of the night. ... That’s not a crime, it’s every citizen’s right.” Brockman and Ball would later meet with Lt. Chris Hall. Hall testified the deputies told him Melissa Covington interfered with Donnie’s arrest, physically blocking their access to a cruiser. But Brockman testified Melissa Covington was arrested on the porch, after

she’d merely taken a step toward Donnie. He even acknowledged he directed Mackey to detain her “because I was afraid she was about to interfere” with her son’s arrest. “You can’t arrest somebody for potentially doing something,” Gerhardstein said. “That’s not a crime.” Hall, hearing the deputies’ depiction of the incident, recommended they tack on resisting arrest charges for the couple. Hall was not present at the scene. Gerhardstein called it an abuse of power by the deputies, as well as a picture of disarray that, if handled differently, could have been avoided. “They’re arresting their way out of a situation that could have 100 percent been dealt with through conversation, through transparency, through de-escalation,” he said. No Boone County Sheriff ’s Office policies were violated in the incident, said Mando, the attorney who represented the deputies. The settlement was agreed to simply to avoid incurring more fees, he added. The Covingtons initially demanded $400,000, Mando said. “I think discovery showed their case wasn’t near as strong as they thought,” he added. Defending the case cost about $64,000, Mando said. The Boone County Sheriff ’s Office declined to comment, referring The Enquirer to Mando. Gerhardstein said the incident prompted the sheriff ’s office to add new de-escalation training and to require deputies to have copies of warrants available while serving them. Donnie’s charge of disorderly conduct threatened to trigger a yearlong imprisonment due to his past offenses. But he avoided prison, Gerhardstein said. Donald Jr. and Melissa Covington agreed to enter a diversion program and perform community service. Their records were later expunged. Brockman previously served a fourweek unpaid suspension for violating the sheriff ’s office’s merit board rules and regulations, according to his testimony. Mando said Brockman and Ball still work for the sheriff ’s office. He said Mackey is now with the Secret Service. Melissa Covington, who spent the last 20 years as a manager in the car rental industry, said her detainment motivated her to go back to school. She’s studying forensic psychology. “I want to be that person who does background checks on police officers,” she said, “to see if they are psychologically fit to be in law enforcement.”

The Cincinnati Business Hall of Fame added five new inductees. This year's honorees include Larry Sheakley, Donna Salyers, the late Jack T. Maas Sr., Laurence Leser and Edward 'Hap' Castleberry. Junior Achievement is hosting the induction event at Xavier University's Cintas Center. The hall of fame, based at the Cincinnati Museum Center, recognizes leaders for their business acumen and community involvement.

In the mid-1990s, when sewing faded as a hobby, Salyers' strategy for the growth of her business resulted in marketing finished ready-to-wear coats Donna and accessories, with SaSalyers lyers producing every finished product herself. Over time, her company expanded with a retail catalog and e-commerce site and is known today as the largest multichannel faux fur business in the world. Within the last decade, Salyers and her daughter, Amanda, launched a wholesale division, which has grown to over 4,000 accounts, including Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus. But Fabulous-Furs is only part of Salyers’ success story. In the early 1990s, her husband, Jim, began buying vacant buildings in downtown Covington.The purchases including the F.W. Woolworth building, which was renovated into a wedding and meeting space: the Madison Event Center. In 2004, the former Wadsworth Electric Building on 11th Street became Fabulous-Furs’ headquarters. The 110,000square foot space was just the right size for the company's manufacturing workroom, warehouse, distribution center and offices. Today, the Salyers Group, led by Amanda's husband Guy van Rooyen, is credited with playing a significant role in revitalizing Downtown Covington. The former Coppin’s Department Store, for example, is now the widely-acclaimed Hotel Covington and Coppin’s Restaurant. The hotel opened in 2016 and is designed to both welcome travelers and serve as a communal space for the city. Salyers, who lives with Jim in Newport, remains as active in the family business as when she began, giving back to numerous local and national organizations and charities.

It was Donna Salyers’ love for animals that started what is known as the “faux fur revolution.” While driving to purchase her first mink coat, Salyers heard a Paul Harvey radio broadcast that changed her life. Learning about the suffering of animals in the fur industry, she realized that fashion need not come at the cost of cruelty, and the idea for Fabulous-Furs was born. Salyers was already a skilled sewing enthusiast. Making her own clothes by the age of 7, she learned to sew with the guidance of her grandmother who did alterations for local stores. She also had developed a love for retail at her first job, Goldsmith’s Department Store in her hometown of Covington, when she was only 13. In the early 1970s, The Enquirer hired Salyers, then a wife and mother, as its sewing columnist. She worked to become nationally syndicated, and with the advent of cable TV, landed her own 30-minute national show, "Sewing Etc." Launching Fabulous-Furs in 1989, she offered just one product: a faux fur coat sewing kit. With Salyers’ eye for design, no one could distinguish between her faux version and the real thing. Fabulous-Furs quickly gained media attention and a Hollywood following.

Erlanger-Elsmere School District seeks community’s support for afterschool program through microgrant The Erlanger-Elsmere Independent School District needs our community’s help to ensure the afterschool program at Howell Elementary continues to change lives of children and families in our community. For years, Howell Elementary and the RC Durr YMCA have partnered to provide a beneficial and structured afterschool environment for hundreds of children of working parents in our region. Programs like this one are known to boost academic performance, reduce risky behaviors and even promote physical health. But now, the program is in danger because of unexpected funding cuts. “The grant funding that has supported our life-changing afterschool program has been significantly reduced this year,” said Dr. Kathy Burkhardt, superintendent of Erlanger-Elsmere Schools. “We have a number of families on a waiting list just to attend.” The school district has partnered with the United Way to establish a microgrant in the amount of $25,000 that will save the program, which is offered to participants free of charge, and allow it to operate at its fullest potential. “This essential program offers a safe, educational environment after school for students within Howell Elementary,” said Rebecca Nooe, Senior Program Director for the YMCA. “It is a true extension of the school day, helping with tutoring and academics, and provides a plethora of enrichment opportunities.” To support the grant, anyone, friends and relatives, community members, businesses, and more, can give a monetary gift of any size. Once the grant’s to-
tal is fulfilled it will provide the needed funding to extend the afterschool program to serve 50 more children. “If we can encourage many people to make a financial investment in our community’s children it will make a meaningful and lasting impact,” Dr. Burkhardt said. “Even the smallest gift will add up to making a big difference.” Visit the grant’s page directly on the United Way website: www.uwgc.org/ give/ways-to-give/howell-elementarycampaign Or access the link from the school district’s webpage: www.erlanger.kyschools.us/ The afterschool program at Howell Elementary is a 21st Century Community Learning Center, an extended day program that allow students to participate in homework study with certified teachers, work on academic interventions, and explore academic enrichments in a safe, fun atmosphere. The program is a partnership between the Erlanger-Elsmere School District and the RC Durr YMCA. A key component of the program is time for homework and interventions, when students work with certified teachers to continue work on the assignments, concepts and subjects they are working on during the school day. During academic enrichment, students participate in clubs that change daily and align with common core standards. At Howell, for example, there is a Video Club that is working to make a movie – from writing a script, developing storyboards, filming, editing, and everything else behind the scenes.

A crisp fall day calls for hot bowl of gumbo Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld
Remember the simple baked chicken recipe I shared last week? Well, I had purchased more chicken than I needed, so I decided to make a quick gumbo soup with the rest of the chicken. This is the gumbo soup I made for years in gargantuan quantities for our Holy Trinity church bazaars. It’s a nice soup for these cooler autumn days. I received an interesting note and recipe from Delhi reader Carol Graham who enjoys making her family’s favorite cucumber salad with a vinegar and sugar dressing. “I think I may have created it. I’ve never seen a recipe for this cucumber dish. It’s a family and potluck favorite,” she said. The difference between Carol’s salad and maybe yours could be that Carol doesn't presoak the cucumbers in salt water, and she finishes it off with sour cream. I’m going to make Carol’s version soon. How about you? Let our Community Press family know how it turns out if you do make it. Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator and author. Find her blog online atAbouteating.com. Email her at rita@com munitypress.com with “Rita’s kitchen” in the subject line.

Holy Trinity chicken gumbo soup
Carol didn’t specify the kind of vinegar. I would use cider, but clear would work, too.
1 cup rice
2 cucumbers, peeled and sliced
Go to taste on ingredients. If you buy broth, make sure it’s real broth, not simply flavored. Or if you want to see me make chicken broth from scratch, check out my Fox 19 segment where I show Frank Marzullo just how to do it.

Ingredients
Sliced fresh parsley for garnish (opt)
⁄2 cup vinegar
1 generous pound boneless, skinless chicken, cut into 1⁄2” or so pieces

1 tablespoon sugar
1 generous cup yellow onion, diced
Salt and pepper to taste
2 ribs celery, diced
1 cup sour cream
3 nice cloves garlic, minced
Instructions
Palmful fresh basil, chopped, or 1 teaspoon dry basil

Add okra and serve. Or serve okra on the side separately. Tip: Freezing bell peppers No need to blanch, just dice, freeze hard in single layer on cookie sheet, then pour into containers.

Viewpoints The promise to act Bridge Disappointment Mike Moffett Guest Columnist Community Pecorder
Let’s first applaud the Senate for the passage of the Carl D. Perkins Act July 2018 and give credit where credit belongs. The fact is this bill passed the house by almost unanimous bipartisan support in June of 2017. Once it was sent to the Senate it sat in the hands of the HELP committee for over a year. Hundreds of companies pleading for passage of the bill (S.3217) signed on and sent a letter to the committee chair, Lamar Alexander (RTN), and ranking member Patty Murray (D-WA) in June of this year. This is the norm for Congress - unless there is a huge amount of pressure applied to Congress little is done. Common sense legislation is set aside in the name of special interest and party affiliation, while our community bears the consequences with no gain. One such case is the comprehensive infrastructure spending bill. This bill would be in the interest of all Americans. It will begin to address the decay of our bridges, waterways and power grids which are in desperate need. A prime example of this in our community is the Brent Spence Bridge. This bridge alone influences 10 states and an enormous effect on Kentucky and southwestern Ohio. With the cost of repair/replacement increasing by 70 million dollars each year,
the time is far overdue. Replacing one of America’s most dangerous and important bridges should be acted upon immediately. This is just one of the thousands that need repair or replacement. The reluctance to act upon and to realize the urgency of such need signifies the disconnect between our community and D.C. The voices of Kentuckians are falling upon deaf ears. Even more unsettling is that Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell, the Senate Majority Leader, is one of the most powerful men in politics. Additionally, his wife, Elaine Chao, is the Secretary of Transportation and our Congressmen Thomas Massie, KY 4th District, sits on the transportation committee. So much political power with nothing accomplished. Promises remain unfilled and a vision that is blurred by the unwillingness to compromise and work for a bipartisan solution. Therefore, we should elect and send representatives to Washington who don’t promise to fight but are willing to work for the common good of Kentuckians and all Americans. Congress has too many fighters and few workers. I ask for your vote on Tuesday, Nov. 6 as I promise to work for you, not interest groups, having only the welfare and good of our community in mind. Mike Moffett, resident of Erlanger, U.S. Congress, Kentucky 4th District. Independent candidate

Going to a live auction to find a unique piece of furniture, jewelry, or art can be an exciting but exhausting experience filled with a frenzy of people who get up close and personal with the items on sale. If you want the auction experience without the crowds or the crashing sound of the gavel, it’s easier than ever to access online options where the only sound you’ll hear is the click of your mouse. However, internet auctions are about to get busier as they gain popularity with people looking for specialty selections at discounted prices, and some may be surprised to find that these sites operate a little differently than expected. Most online auctioneers have a disclosure statement prominently displayed on their page that explains their practices. Visitors to the site are meant to read the terms before a financial transaction can be completed, but many buyers agree to the disclosure without looking it over fully to get to the items on sale. This causes problems, as most people expect an online auction will function like a regular retailer - they do not. Internet auction sites are typically only a host for numerous online vendors, meaning the company isn’t the one selling the product. Items purchased are

They’re allowed to bid on items with a price they’d like to pay, but they’re in competition with other interested parties. The length of time they have is different from site to site, but they tend to operate similarly across the board. For example, the auction site may have an item up for bid starting on Friday at 11 p.m. and ending on Sunday at 11:59 p.m. Visitors can bid at any time within the time frame until the deadline is up. The winner is then notified by the vendor of the item of they are in fact the recipient. When visiting an online auction, make sure to read all the presented information before moving forward with a purchase that way you’ll know what you can do if there is a problem with your order. While there may not be much, understanding the terms and conditions can help alleviate the surprise and frustration of finding out after the fact.

Sports NDA sees tough schedule as a playoff catalyst Jon Richardson Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
The Notre Dame Academy volleyball team has seen a few more tallies in the loss column than they are used to. But if you ask head coach Molly McDermott, it is all a means to an greater end – playoff success. “On paper it’s like, ‘Notre Dame must be having a down year....look at those eight losses,’” McDermott said. “As long as we keep our heads on straight with that it’s going to bode well for us at tournament time.” The Pandas’ 2018 schedule has included state and nationally ranked talent. Three of their eight losses have come by way of the top three teams in Kentucky in Assumption (the nation’s top-ranked team), Mercy Academy and Sacred Heart. Three other losses were to top Cincinnati teams - Mount Notre Dame, St. Ursula and Mercy McAuley, with each team falling in the top 10 in Ohio. Additionally, NDA dropped a match to Marist of Chicago, the nation’s thirdranked team, per USA Today. McDermott, though, makes no excuses, nor does she dwell on any potential negatives. The rigorous schedule is all preparation for the postseason – steel sharpening steel. “We like the competitiveness of our schedule and the degree of difficulty,” McDermott said. “The difficulty of our schedule right now is a great opportunity come tournament time. Our biggest challenge right now would be to

look at these tough matches as opportunities to get better that our district and region opponents possibly don’t have.” In her first season with the Pandas, McDermott – an NDA alum, along with the rest of her staff – has established an identity of defense. The philosophy is first keeping opposing shots from hitting the floor. The better the defense, the more the team can maintain the serve and efficient passing. A trio of seniors who will move on to Division I college program lead the Pandas. Shannon Gormally, who was named MVP in NDA’s victory over rival St. Henry in the Playing for a Purpose
match, is set to attend Florida International. Abby Noll is heading to Eastern Kentucky and Belle Morgan will play next year at Villanova. The players and the coaching staff have worked hard toward a unified vision of success this season, and as McDermott sees it, are firing on all cylinders just when they need to. “The kids have done a good job of buying in and respecting and trusting the coaching staff,” McDermott said. “I think it is all coming together at a good time, because we’ve played some of our best volleyball in the last week or two. “I definitely think we are peaking at the right time.”

It's do or die time for high school soccer and volleyball players in Northern Kentucky, as district tournaments begin Monday (Oct. 8): Here are schedules and outlooks: Boys soccer Simon Kenton has the most wins in the Eighth Region at 13-7-1, and goes into the postseason on a 6-0-1 streak. Campbell County is the defending 10th Region champion but is looking up at rival Bishop Brossart, who is the only 10th Region team ranked in the state's top 25 by the Maher Rankings. In the Ninth Region, Ryle (15-2-2) and Highlands (16-1-3) have been the top teams all year but they are wary of challengers. In the rest of the region, St. Henry, Covington Catholic and Highlands are favored to win district titles, but there are intriguing battles for regional berths, with Dixie Heights and Villa

Girls soccer The 37th District will be a big one on a variety of fronts. Bishop Brossart and Campbell County have represented the district in the 10th Region Tournament all six years in the alignment, with Brossart winning the championship four of those six years. That will change this season, with the Alexandria rivals facing off in one of Monday’s semifinals. In the Eighth Region, defending champ Simon Kenton is already in the
regional tournament after drawing a bye to the 32nd District final. SK is ranked eighth in the state. In the Ninth, the 33rd District should have plenty of thrills Monday night in its elimination games. Boone County and Cooper meet in a rematch of a 3-2 double-overtime win by Cooper Sept. 19. Ryle faces Conner. In the 34th, St. Henry (10-3-1) and Dixie Heights (14-3-2) are likely to meet in the final as two of the hottest teams in the Ninth Region. Dixie beat two defending regional champions last week, Simon Kenton and Notre Dame, while St. Henry is on a 9-0-1 streak, with the draw against Notre Dame. Highlands, winners of seven straight, is likely to get into the finals against Newport Central Catholic, who Highlands beat 3-0 this season. ❚ 32nd District at Walton-Verona: Tuesday – Walton-Verona vs. Grant County, 5:30 p.m.; Wednesday – Final (Simon Kenton vs. W-V/Grant winner), 7:30 p.m.

DAYTON – One of Northern Kentucky’s longest running football rivalries has been put on hold this year. Dayton and Ludlow canceled the varsity football contest, which was set for Thursday, Oct. 4. Dayton cited a multitude of injuries in recent weeks, which left the Greendevils program with not enough players to safely play a full game. The game was officially filed with the Kentucky High School Athletic Association as a forfeit and is not likely to be made up. It will count as a win for Ludlow and count in the seeding for Class 1A, District 4 for the state playoffs. “Due to the amount - as well as the severity - of injuries we have suffered the last two weeks, we will not be able to play in the scheduled game against Ludlow @ Ludlow on Thursday, October 4th,” Dayton posted on its Facebook page.. “The safety of our kids and preventing further injury is our main priority at this point.” Dayton has 26 players listed on its varsity roster. One of them is senior Elizabeth “Libby” Lukens, the goalkeeper on the girls soccer team who kicks field goals and extra points for the football team but does not play another position. As listed on the team’s stat pages filed with the KHSAA, 20 players saw action in Dayton’s 56-18 loss at Eminence Sept. 28, but only 12, including Lukens, have played in all five games so far during the season. Jay Brewer, superintendent of the Dayton Independent School District, said the football program had between 12 and 14 players who were healthy enough to play. He said some of the injuries were concussions and players will be evaluated before a decision is made whether to play against Bellevue Oct. 12. “As the season has progressed, there have been a series of unfortunate events,” Brewer said Thursday. “Kids are kids, and they get hurt. We started the year at around 28 kids. A lot of them are day to day. Obviously, we didn’t want to wait until Friday afternoon to make that decision.” Brewer praised the Ludlow district for its cooperation in the matter. Dayton, one of the smallest schools in Kentucky, has 230 students in grades 9-12 in its report for the 2017-18 school year submitted to the KHSAA. That includes 111 boys. Dayton is one of the oldest football programs in Northern Kentucky. The Greendevils and nearby rival Bellevue have the most-played rivalry in Kentucky, meeting 142 times since 1926. Dayton has a similar history with Ludlow.

Bourbon barrels outnumber Kentuckians 2:1 Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Drink up, Kentucky. Bourbon barrels outnumber citizens of the Bluegrass State nearly 2:1 according to numbers released by the Kentucky Distillers’ Association. On Thursday, the association announced that the state’s aging Bourbon inventory has reached 7.5 million barrels, the most since 1972. The total number of all barrels – including Bourbon, brandy and other
spirits – reached 8.1 million, the most since 1971. With a mere 4.4 million people living in Kentucky, KDA President Eric Gregory said the iconic industry is close to having two barrels of spirits for every man, woman and child in the state. “More than a billion dollars in investment is scheduled to come online in the next few years, so we hope to hit that mark pretty quickly," Gregory said in a statement. According to a statement, the number of barrels includes data from all
distilleries in Kentucky compiled from state Department of Revenue data as of Jan. 1. More bourbon facts to celebrate Kentucky Bourbon Heritage Month (September): ❚ Kentucky Bourbon contributes to an $8.5 billion economic and tourism engine that generates as many as 17,500 jobs with an annual payroll topping $800 million and pours $825 million into tax coffers each year. ❚ Visitors made more than 1.2 million stops at participating distilleries

Reduce stress through mindfulness Extension Notes Diane Mason Guest columnist
Fingers holding cell phones; constant updates via social media; 24/7 news alerts; and demands from work and home help create a world that is full of noise, chaos and all kinds of stressors that bombard us each day. With the holiday season rapidly approaching, chaos and stress may increase. It may be time to step back and analyze your world and your life. Sometimes, we can get caught up in
these stressors or events and allow them to take control over our lives and reduce our quality of life. Next time you are faced with a particularly stressful encounter or situation, try using mindfulness to return your focus to what is important to you. Mindfulness requires you to purposely pay attention to what is happening in the present moment. The most common method is to focus on breathing in and out, clearing your mind of thoughts. You can also focus on your physical self, your surroundings or your movements as you do a daily activity such as walking. Work to clear you mind and focus on the beauty, sights, and
Covington Rotary promotes ‘service above self’ Members of Covington Rotary have been reciting the Four Way Test since 1943, 52 weeks a year. ❚ Is it the truth? ❚ Is it fair to all concerned? ❚ Will it build goodwill and better friendships? ❚ Will it be beneficial to all concerned? The members have spent the last year doing what they do best: Service Above Self. The Club is celebrating the ‘sending off ’ of two students from Holmes High School to live and study in Europe for the academic year 2018-2019. Early in the year Rotary encouraged students from Covington High Schools to apply for this honor. The requirements state that the students must excel academically and exhibit a financial need. For three years, under the leadership of Rotarian Arnold Taylor, the Club sponsored one student per year. This year the Club is sponsoring three students. The students chosen spend a year in a foreign country. This year, Molly Morgan and Jacob Dye, juniors at Holmes High School, will be off to Poland and France. They will reside with local families, who have been identified and vetted by local Rotary clubs in Poland and France. Molly and Jacob will be immersed in the language, culture and educational systems of their respective countries. During the year they will report regularly to the Covington Rotary. When they return next summer they will present their memories, challenges and experiences at the Rotary meetings. Covington Rotary will underwrite all expenses associated with their travels and living expenses. A third student, Nick Brockhoff, also from Holmes, will be going to Spain to live and study and have the same responsibilities as Molly and Jacob. While he is under the sponsorship of Covington Rotary, he will be paying his own way. In addition to the International Student Study Exchange, Covington Rotary has had a year packed with activities
sounds of the surroundings. Sometimes, just stepping away for a few minutes from some situation or surroundings can help with focus. Mindfulness helps you re-center, reduces external distractions and allows you to evaluate yourself and your reactions to the stressors around you. Mindfulness-based stress reduction has been around since the 1970s. Many scientific studies have shown its effectiveness in stress reduction as well as other positive benefits including a decrease in anxiety and depression. Some studies have shown mindful eating can be a tool for weight management. You can practice mindfulness any-
time or anywhere if you turn your focus inward and allow distractions to fade away. Educational programs of the Cooperative Extension Service serve all people regardless of economic or social status and will not discriminate based on race, color, ethnic origin, national origin, creed, religion, political belief, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expressions, pregnancy, marital status, genetic information, age, veteran status, or physical or mental disability.

Wurtz. One of the Club’s largest undertakings this year involved the Biggest Charity Auction. The Club partnered with The Point and raised over sixty thousand dollars. The mission of The Point is to provide opportunities to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to reach their highest potential educationally, residentially, socially and vocationally. This was a perfect fit for the “service above self.” As the Club welcomes new members the fifty current Rotarians will face more questions, challenges and opportunities of need, under the leadership of new President, Darren Wurz. One thing is certain, Darren, the Executive Committee, and club members will use the four way test to move forward, as the Club has for ninety eight years. For more information regarding information about Covington Rotary, please contact Darren at 849-291-9879. Gerry Zembrodt

Commodity Charge (Monthly Billings)
On or about September 28, 2018, Northern Kentucky Water District will file an application with the Kentucky Public Service Commission for authority to adjust its rates for water service in two phases. Northern Kentucky Water District proposes to place the Phase I rates into effect on but no sooner than October 28, 2018 or a date determined by the Public Service Commission, and the Phase II rates into effect on but no sooner than October 28, 2019 or a date determined by the Public Service Commission. The proposed rates will produce total additional annual revenues of $6,217,178. The Phase I rates will produce additional annual revenues of $3,118,991. The Phase II rates will produce additional annual revenues of $3,098,187. The percentage of increase will be an overall increase of 11.6% to Northern Kentucky Water District. The percentage increase is 5.8% on current revenues upon the Phase I rates becoming effective, and an increase of 5.8% on current revenues upon the Phase II rates becoming effective. The average residential* customer bill will be adjusted approximately 6 cents per day, or $1.92 per month from $34.94 to $36.86, or $5.76 per quarter from $104.82 per quarter to $110.58 per quarter upon the Phase I rates becoming effective. The average residential customer bill will be adjusted approximately 6 cents per day, or $1.92 per month from $36.86 to $38.78 or $5.76 per quarter from $110.58 to $116.34 upon Phase II rates becoming effective. Also proposed is an increase in special charges for service connection fees, adding a fee for credit card payments based on the actual fee charged by the issuing bank and other tariff conditions of service.
