Parents apply for what could be Kentucky's fi rst charter school Olivia Krauth Louisville Courier Journal USA TODAY NETWORK
Charter schools have been legal in Kentucky since 2017, but no one has tried to open one in the Bluegrass State — until now. A group of Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati-area parents applied to open the fi rst charter school in Kentucky at the end of October. River Cities Academy, they explained in a 939-page application to Newport Independent Schools, would accept students from six towns along the Ohio River in Kenton and Campbell counties. It hopes to serve a "diverse population" refl ective of Northern Kentucky's "urban core," founder Lynn Schaber told The Courier Journal. The tuition-free, nonprofi t charter would eventually grow into a K-8 school of more than 300 students, focusing on project-based learning. Charter schools are publicly funded but independently run. They report to authorizers — typically local school boards or universities. Students traditionally are admitted by lottery. Joel Adams, the executive director of the Kentucky Public Charter Schools Association, called River Cities a "strong and well-thought through operation that we always assumed would be among the fi rst to apply." But it faces an uphill battle, with the controversy that surrounds the model, and no state mechanism to provide long-term funding. "If there is no funding mechanism, there will not be a River Cities Academy," Schaber said. "It's as simple as that."
How to submit news
For-profi t charter schools are illegal in Kentucky, but critics argue management organizations that run nonprofi t schools ultimately profi t. Critics also say charter schools lack accountability and pull money away from already underfunded traditional public schools. Academic outcomes from charter schools are, at best, a mixed bag, they say. Schaber, who has a corporate marketing background, understands that mentality. Ohio has its fair share of low-performing charters, including ones that suddenly close midyear, she said. Under Kentucky law, charter schools are required to take the same state tests as traditional public schools. Their boards are accountable to the authorizer. River Cities Academy, if it becomes a reality, would be run by its board, Schaber said. The board met with a few outside charter managers but "didn't like what they had to say." Supporters say charters have to meet the same accountability standards as their traditional counterparts under Kentucky law. State law also forbids them from kicking out low performing students or those with special needs. Flexibility aff orded to charter schools helps them try new initiatives, supporters say. If more wiggle room helps schools, critics retort, then why aren't all schools allowed the same luxury? Schaber said she isn't a poster child for charter schools by any stretch. Kentucky's charter school law was the easiest path to creating her dream school.

The school features a longer school year, with longer school days spaced out with more recess and downtime for the kids. The curriculum is experiential, focusing on project-based learning and practical applications of topics. Her 10-year-old attends a private Montessori school that costs thousands of dollars a year in tuition. The proposed experience-based curriculum is not unlike a Montessori method, and charter critics often suggest charters are just ways for people to dodge paying pricey tuition bills. She said her child would have aged out of the school by the time it is created — after being authorized, it can take a year or more to actually open the school. Even if he was young enough, she said the school's creation was more about giving other parents options for their kids' education. Years ago, she noticed her friends would move to areas of town with stronger schools — a trend considered the original version of school choice. If they had more school options, especially for kids who learn diff erently, she hoped they would stay. Northern Kentucky hosts three countywide school districts, as well as several small independent districts and a slew of private schools. Schaber said the school would pull students from six towns — Ludlow, Newport, Fort Thomas, Covington, Bellevue and Dayton. Those towns, with the exception of Fort Thomas, are pockets of poverty in

There were big changes in Northern Kentucky Tuesday, Nov. 5. The region and the rest of the state welcomed Democrat Attorney General Andy Beshear as its governor-elect. The razor thin race increased voter turnout in the region. It also turned two Northern Kentucky counties blue despite the three judge-executives endorsement of Gov. Matt Bevin. "Part of the story is (Beshear) performed really well in Northern Kentucky,” said former GOP Secretary of State Trey Grayson of Boone County, one of the few Northern Kentuckians to have held statewide offi ce in recent decades. Even with President Donald Trump's endorsement and Lexington rally the day before the election, just .3 percent stood between Beshear and Bevin. Bevin didn't concede that Tuesday night. The Associated Press did not call the race either. So, what does this race mean for Northern Kentucky?
The Bridge Northern Kentucky needs a replacement for the Brent Spence Bridge. Beshear hasn’t confi rmed if he would sign a bill that uses tolls to fund it. A 2017 study estimated the replacement would cost $2.6 billion if it opened by 2024. Using tolls to pay for it has drawn backlash from a number of Northern Kentucky residents and politicians. They argue they would end up paying the bulk cost of it because they use the bridges across the Ohio River more than Cincinnatians. How did this impact the race, and what does it mean now? "I thought the comments on tolls six days before the election hurt the governor and took a lot of his loyal supporters very much so by surprise," said Boone County's Republican State Sen. John Schickel. At the last gubernatorial debate at Northern Kentucky University, Bevin

Just in time for Christmas, Newport on the Levee is off ering local merchants and chance to get in the holiday shopping game - free of charge. The Levee's owners are soliciting vendors for rent-free retail spaces inside the mall's Gallery Building, which houses AMC Theaters and a handful of restaurants and specialty shops; Levee offi cials didn't say exactly how many spots Calling crafters, cooks and anyone with an idea for a pop-up shop: Newport on there might be. The Levee is recruiting crafters, the Levee is offering rent-free retail eateries, breweries and bourbon space for the holidays. makers, as well as service providers RYAN TERHUNE/THE ENQUIRER and other retailers to be part of its new Village on the Levee from Nov. 23 to Dec. 28. Interested vendors can apply on the Levee's website at https://www.newportonthelevee.com/winterwonder Applications will be accepted through Nov. 20, and new tenants will be announced as they are confi rmed. Successful applicants will be off ered spaces ranging from 700 to 7,800 square feet. Pop-up tenants must operate during The Village on the Levee hours, which are primarily weekday evenings and weekends, according to Cincinnati-based North American Properties, which purchased the mall late last year. The developer plans to invest $100 million, including the purchase price, to update the 380,000-square-foot, town-center-style shopping center adjacent to the Purple People Bridge along the Ohio River. The Village on the Levee is part of the developer's eff ort to create a unique shopping experience, according to Tim Perry, North American's chief investment offi cer. “We are in a unique position this year where we are preparing for the transformation coming in 2020 and have a limited number of retail spaces available for the holiday season,” Perry said. "To show our profound appreciation for the artisans and makers in our region and to off er our holiday guests gifts and merchandise they can’t fi nd anywhere else, we decided to create an amazing popup experience surrounding our holiday programming.”
A federal judge has dismissed Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren and a New Mexico congresswoman from a libel lawsuit fi led on behalf of eight Covington Catholic High School students present during a nowinfamous encounter on the National Mall. The lawsuit, fi led in August, named Warren, Rep. Debra Haaland and 10 other public fi gures – including comedian Kathy Griffi n – claiming they made defamatory comments about the students. The eight unnamed students – identifi ed as the "Covington Boys" in the suit – were present during the January encounter with Native Americans in Washington D.C. Some students chanted and performed a tomahawk chop. U.S. District Judge William Bertelsman, on Tuesday, Nov. 5, dismissed only Warren and Haaland, citing federal law that gives them immunity for acting in their offi cial capacities.

funded. Without a guaranteed funding source for at least a few years out, charter schools cannot create solid budgets. And without a solid budget, authorizers are unlikely to approve a charter application like RCA's. For the past few years, Schaber had allies throughout government. Republicans, who skew in favor of charters, have a majority in the state legislature. Gov. Matt Bevin supports charters, as does Education Commissioner Wayne Lewis. Kenton and Campbell counties — the two counties RCA would take students from — have been tea party strongholds. Both recently fl ipped to blue, however, going for charter opponent Beshear. Beshear vowed to replace the Kentucky Board of Education on "day one" with new members "that care more about our children than a for-profi t charter school company." That board would then fi re Lewis. Lewis has supported changing how Kentucky schools are funded to allow for per-pupil funds to follow students wherever they choose to attend, whether it is private or public. Charter funding made the education board's legislative agenda last year. The notion did not come up in the 2019 legislative session. With Lewis and the charter-friendly state board in choppy waters, it is unclear whether Kentucky's top education offi cials will push for charter funding in the 2020 budget. Schaber met with all of the superintendents in RCA's area, getting reactions that ranged from "anger to understanding, but not supportive." In a survey run by RCA, 90% said they support a "public K-8 school that uses experience-based learning." Another question found 70% would like having a hands-on school in their district. Neither question mentions that that potential school would be a charter school. Schaber said the term has a connotation that leads to hesitancy. "When I meet with people ... I don't use the charter word at all, and then partway through, they go, 'Is this a charter school?'" she said. "I'm like, 'Well, technically yes,' and they're like, 'Oh, just so you know, I don't like charters.' "And by the end of every meeting, it's the same thing: 'Wow, I really like this.'"

the relatively affl uent Northern Kentucky. Four cities are majority-white, while Covington and Newport have 45% and 30% minority students, respectively. The districts range in star rankings under the school accountability system, correlating with their poverty levels. Covington and Newport have a few onestar schools, while Fort Thomas is all four-star schools. RCA's proposed budget assumes more of its students — and more of its per-pupil funding — will be pulled from Covington and Newport since they struggle academically.

Warren, a U.S. senator from Massachusetts, tweeted that a Native American man at the center of the encounter "endured hateful taunts." Haaland, one of the Warren fi rst Native American women elected to Congress, tweeted about the man "being harassed and mocked by a group of MAGA hat-wearing teens." Bertelsman said those statements were made within the scope of their jobs as elected representatives. In a written opinion, he wrote: "The court concludes that the…statements by defendants Warren and Haaland – whether one agrees with them or fi nds them objectionable – are communications intended to convey the politicians' views on matters of public interest to their constituents." Bertelsman did not exercise jurisdiction over the claims against the other 10 defendants, which include Griffi n and several journalists. The case will continue in Kenton County Circuit Court, where the lawsuit was fi led.
In Kentucky's urban core of Louisville, education activists rally against charter schools. They're joined, to a lesser extent, by people and superintendents in Northern Kentucky. Opposition to charter school funding played a role in statewide teacher protests in 2018. Nearly two years later, activists are shifting their attention from charters to scholarship tax credits. A changing political landscape — less activist attention, a Democrat and charter opponent as governor-elect — may further reduce the likelihood charters will get a long-term funding mechanism in 2020. "Given the governor-elect’s public position on charters, it’s hard to imagine the path didn’t just get more treacherous, and it was tough to begin with," Adams said, adding a funding mechanism seems "signifi cantly less likely." While Kentucky has allowed charter schools since 2017, lawmakers haven't passed a long-term funding mechanism. Such a move would require dedicated funding out of the state budget or a fundamental alteration in how schools are

said tolls need to be part of the solutionas a way to pay for a replacement bridge. That was diff erent than his previous stance. In 2016, he signed a bill that banned tolls from funding new bridges connecting Ohio and Kentucky. In October, Covington Mayor Joe Meyer said he opposed tolls and called Bevin’s stance “shocking,” according to an op-ed in the River City News. At the last gubernatorial debate at Northern Kentucky University, Beshear didn’t directly say if he would sign a bill to fund the replacement with tolls. Instead, he said he would discuss the issue with Kentuckians to see how they would want to fund it. A Beshear administration could mean hitting reset on the plan to replace the bridge, Grayson said. That's because Bevin had worked with Ohio Gov. Mike Dewine for about a year. Having a Democratic administration work with a Republican-ruled legislature could also pose some obstacles.
Expanded gambling A Beshear administration could move the needle on expanding gambling in Kentucky. During his campaign, Beshear said Kentuckians gamble in border states, such as Ohio and Indiana. He wants that money to stay in the state and use it to save Kentucky's ailing public pension system. In 2018, he sent a letter to state lawmakers asking them to legalize casinos and sports betting, according to the Courier-Journal. It did not estimate how much money legal casinos would generate for Kentucky, but he wrote, "Commercial gaming in Indiana last year alone netted over $600 million in direct tax revenue." Sports gambling is illegal in Ken-

tucky. If it was legal, more expansions could come to Florence’s Turfway Park. In October, The Louisville-based
company Churchill Downs purchased Florence’s Turfway Park and pledged to add 1,500 Historical Horse Racing terminals. Those terminals allow people to bet on the results of old races. In 2018, Franklin Circuit Judge Thomas Wingate ruled the machines don’t violate gambling laws. Grayson said the political shift could open a path to approve sports gambling but it would stop there. Approving casinos in Kentucky is still unlikely, he said. State rep. Adam Koenig, R-Erlanger, Chair of the Licensing and Occupations Committee, where horse racing issues land, supports expanded gaming. "If (Beshear) wants to work with me on that, then super," Koenig said. Bevin did not support expanded gambling. He’s asked “is the juice worth the squeeze?” when others talk about the possible revenue it could bring to the state.

Republican Kimberly Banta won a special election for a Northern Kentucky state house seat Tuesday, Nov. 5. "I'm really excited to serve the commonwealth," she told The Enquirer. She won 63% of the vote to Democrat Josh Blair's 37. The longtime Kenton County schools administrator said she wants to work on access to mental health services in addition to "conquering" the opioid epidemic. In July, former Rep.

Voter turnout and why NKY went for Beshear More Northern Kentucky residents voted in this election than they have in awhile. Historically, the region had the worst voter turnout in the state. All three counties voter turnout increased by double digits. That could be because of the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce. This year, the chamber launched the campaign Get Out The Vote. The chamber wanted to increase turnout and "erase the region’s statewide reputation," as a place where voters aren’t engaged with the election process, according to a press release from the chamber. "Voters are realizing that if they want attention, funding and a dialogue with their leaders in Frankfort and Washington, they need to get to the polls. Not only does voting hold our elected offi cials accountable, it is also the pillar of our democracy," said chamber president and CEO Brent Cooper in a statement. The chamber plans to continue the campaign for the 2020 election. Northern Kentucky leaders weren't surprised the the counties of Kenton and Campbell wanted Beshear to be governor. “Matt Bevin didn’t do very well,” Grayson said. “Even in Boone County he under performed.” Bevin won Boone County with 56% of the vote. In 2015, though, he won the county with 65% of the vote. Bevin's personality likely hurt him in this election, Grayson said. "One the primary thing is people want to vote for people they like," Koenig said. The Beshear name, he added, has had "a lot of success," recently in the state.

As we move past the fi rst frost date and people start moving their plants indoors, they could unknowingly be bringing in some future unwanted guests. Fungus gnats (specifi cally darkwinged fungus gnats) are common insects that use areas of wet soil for an egg-laying site. They usually like damp, dark areas, so if you live in a wooded area or have many trees on your property, they might be a part of your landscape. They might also use old rotting wood, leaf piles, or potted plants. If potted plants are brought inside, the warmth of our homes and ease of access to wet soil in the pot can help create a thriving population. If you notice what look like small mosquitoes in your home during the winter months, you may be dealing with a fungus gnat issue. Fungus gnat larvae sometimes damage the roots and lower stems of plants growing in pots. Greenhouse growers routinely deal with and eliminate fungus gnats because of this. Usually in a home, the main problem is annoyance. Fungus gnats fl y slowly around the house and are attracted to lights. This means they will fl y towards televisions and computer screens while people are using them. As you bring plants inside, you should consider using monitoring tools to see if fungus gnats have taken up residence. To check for adults, you can use yellow sticky cards staked near the plant. The adults like the color and get trapped on the glue covered surface.
Fungus gnat adults are 1/8th inch long and are gray to gray-black. They have long, skinny legs and sort of resemble mosquitoes in shape and in flight. JIM KALISCH, UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA-LINCOLN
To monitor for larvae in the soil, take slices of raw potato (1/4 inch or so) and lay them on the surface of the potting medium. Check them before they dry out to see if maggots have attached to them to feed. If you fi nd that you have a problem with fungus gnats, you can use several methods to control the population. Changing the potting medium out for new stock removes the problem entirely but is not always feasible for certain plants. You can also run a fan over the pot to dry out the soil to reduce fungus gnat attraction or water less frequently. To treat them, you can try to mix a solution of 9-parts water with 1-part bleach and run it through the soil to kill larval gnats. Test this with lesser-desired plants fi rst as some may not tolerate the mixture. For an organic approach, use a product containing Bt (Bacillus thuringinesis) specifi c to fl ies; one common trade name is “Gnatrol.” It will take time and eff ort, but if you follow through you can eliminate these pesky invaders!

Crashes on I-71/75 curve have increased southbound lanes, according to reports. The concrete chunks have damaged fi ve vehicles traveling in the northbound lanes. In the latest accident on Oct. 26, concrete median chunks broke the windshield and fl attened the tire of a pickup truck driven by a Michigan man. The semi was the third truck to slide out of control that morning. I-75 south was shut down for fi ve hours, Schierberg said. Public offi cials declared an emergency saying the public is at 'great risk' of injury or death. Those emergencies remain in place until a half-mile friction treatment, known as a skidabrader treatment, is expected to be fi nished just before Thanksgiving. Slippery when wet signs are in place. On June 17, four vehicles traveling north on I-75 were damaged by pieces of
Chris Mayhew Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Rainy days and nights are when tractor-trailers have been losing control and crashing on just over 1,000-feet of southbound I-71/75 in Fort Mitchell. Since October 2018, a dozen tractortrailers have crashed on rainy days and nights on a curve in southbound lanes underneath the Dixie Highway overpass, according to Kentucky collision reports provided by Fort Mitchell Police Department. "The accidents seem to happen particularly when it's been raining for a while," said Andrew Schierberg, chief of police in Fort Mitchell. Chunks of concrete from the center barrier have shattered into the northbound lanes on fi ve diff erent dates because of tractor-trailer crashes in the
concrete from a truck that slid and jackknifed in the southbound curve into the center wall barrier. A Hyde Park woman driving a Jeep Compass reported damages to both front tires and the SUV's undercarriage in the June 17 accident from concrete chunks in the high-speed northbound lane, according to collision reports. Only one other tractor-trailer crash happened during dry weather in the last year on that curve between mileposts 187.8 and 187.5, Schierberg said. In that instance, a truck driver told police he crashed into a car after slamming on the brakes to avoid hitting a van that swerved in front of the semi, according to collision reports. Schierberg said that so far no one has been killed or seriously injured in any of the crashes. Rainy days now make the chief wary
of when the next report will come, but he said that hasn't always been the case. The numbers of I-75 south crashes on that curve have spiked exponentially in the last two years. Compare the 10 total semi crashes on that curve so far in 2019 with the four from 2018, Schierberg said. The number of semi crashes on that curve in 2017 and 2016 was zero each year, he said. That's right, the curve had no semi crashes in two years' time. Back in 2014, there were three semi crashes on the curve. Schierberg said speeding has not played a signifi cant factor in the recent crashes. When speeding has been a factor it has been fi ve or 10 miles over the posted 55 mph limit, he said. "The interstate can be a blessing and a curse," he said.

"There is no way HBO will want to see me nude having simulated sex," she said. Turns out, they did. A couple of months after her initial audition, Kershaw was asked to send in another tape.

Former Over-the-Rhine resident Katie Kershaw made her television debut Sunday in the second episode of "Mrs. Fletcher," a new HBO series starring Kathryn Hahn. Kershaw is a series regular portraying the role of Amanda, coworker and friend of Hahn's leading character, Eve. The show follows Eve's journey to self-discovery by watching pornography. Kershaw says Amanda is an open book with a "nothing to lose" attitude that inspires Eve. All seven half-hour episodes of "Mrs. Fletcher" are directed by women. Before "Mrs. Fletcher," Kershaw was a

She said she got a good theatre education from her early experiences with the Cincinnati Fringe Festival. After losing an arts administrative job in 2011, Kershaw was encouraged by her sister to move to Chicago. Kershaw found success in Chicago's sketch and improv scene, most notably at Second City (which she brought home to Cincinnati in 2016 when "The Second City: Holidazed & Confused Revue" came to Playhouse). Kershaw found herself in New York City for the shooting of "Mrs. Fletcher" and most recently moved to Los Angeles. "Cincinnati still, just like Chicago, is home," she said. "I miss it so much." "Mrs. Fletcher" airs on HBO Sundays at 9:30 p.m. You can stream the series anytime on HBO Go and HBO Now.

Friday. Including the nudity and sex, Kershaw was nervous for another reason: all of her experience was on stage. She had never been in a television show before. "It was a leap that I was so excited to take but also terrifi ed," she said. Instead of feeding off the energy of a live audience, Kershaw said she found joy in the intimacy of performing with a scene partner. She said she found TV acting odd, but not in a bad way. "When you're on camera, that energy isn't there," she said. "It's a diff erent energy. I have to fi nd this within myself." Kershaw studied theater at Northern Kentucky University and lived in Cincinnati from 2005 to 2011.

Easy, no-fail pie crust; pecan pie with or without alcohol Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld
Take a look at the pecan pie with that pretty collar of whipped cream. I usually dollop whipped cream right in the center of the pie, but my crust broke a bit when I cut it, so I used whipped cream as a culinary “Band-Aid.” No one knew
No-fail easy pie crust
With a fork or pastry cutter, work Crisco into flour until it looks like coarse meal with some pieces a bit larger. Don’t get too fussy and overwork dough - that makes it tough. Check my site for photo and tips.
This makes 2 crusts. Ingredients 3 cups all-purpose flour 3/4 teaspoon salt 1-1/2 cups cold Crisco/vegetable shortening 1 egg, lightly beaten 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon ice cold water 2 teaspoons vinegar - clear or cider Instructions Spoon flour into measuring cup, level off, and pour into very large bowl. Stir in salt. Cut Crisco into smallish pieces.
the diff erence, and I didn’t mention it. And if your pumpkin pie shrinks a little from the crust, that whipped cream collar works there, too. I’m telling you this so you don’t suff er angst if your holiday pie doesn’t come out perfectly. And who doesn’t like more whipped cream?! I’ve had requests for a do-ahead, easy, no-fail pie crust, and pecan pie with alcohol and without. Here are my tried & trues.
Pour egg and vinegar in. Pour water over whole surface, not just one area. Stir everything with fork until ingredients are mixed well. Dough will be a bit wet. Divide into 2 portions and pat into disks. Wrap and refrigerate 1 hour or freeze 15 minutes to chill if using right away. Or refrigerate up to 3 days, or freeze up to 3 months. Thaw before using. Roll out on lightly floured surface, starting in center. If dough sticks sprinkle a little flour on. Roll about an inch larger than pie pan.
Pecan pie with a collar of whipped cream. RITA HEIKENFELD FOR THE ENQUIRER
Bourbon/rum or regular pecan pie If you don’t want bourbon or rum, just leave it out. I only had 1⁄ 2 cup of each kind of corn syrup so that’s what I used.
Garnish: whipped cream or vanilla ice cream Instructions
Ingredients
Preheat oven to 350. Whisk eggs, sugars and salt together. Whisk in syrups, butter and vanilla. Whisk in bourbon or rum.
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
Sprinkle pecans in bottom of pie shell.
⁄ 3 cup granulated sugar
2
⁄ 4 cup brown sugar, fi rmly packed (I used light brown)
1
⁄ 4 teaspoon salt
3
⁄ 2 cup each: light and dark corn syrup or 1 cup either
1
5 tablespoons butter, melted 13⁄ 4 teaspoons vanilla 1 heaping cup chopped pecans 2-3 tablespoons bourbon or rum
Pour fi lling over. Place on bottom rack (for crisper bottom crust) and bake 45-60 minutes or until pie is almost set. (If crust is browning too fast, make a collar of foil around it.) The middle should still be a bit jiggly. It will continue to set as it chills in refrigerator. Make up to 2 days ahead. Tip: Whip cream ahead – stays whipped at least 4 hours, covered, in refrigerator.

Viewpoints How Andy Beshear can repay Northern Kentucky Jason Williams Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Here are some of my fi nal thoughts and takeaways from the 2019 election across Greater Cincinnati:
Beshear needs to be a bridge builder I'm talking about Andy Beshear, Kentucky's governor-elect, making it a top priority to build a new Brent Spence Bridge. The Democrat owes Northern Kentucky for getting him elected, and a new bridge would be a way to pay back one of the often-forgotten regions of the commonwealth. We're all tired of hearing about it. We're all tired of politician after politician – including Beshear's father, former Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear – saying it's a priority and then not getting it done. It's going on 20 years ago since thenU.S. Sen. George Voinovich started beating the drum on the need for a new Brent Spence Bridge. The legendary Ohio politician is dead, and there's still no plan to pay for a new bridge. Outgoing Gov. Matt Bevin had intentions of focusing on the bridge after he got elected in 2015. But he wasted too much time trying to appease the Northern Kentucky tea party activists by commissioning a study on the cockamamie idea of building a bypass around Northern Kentucky, despite the region already having one in I-275. It baffl es me that Kentucky wasted time and $2 million in taxpayer to study the $5 billion Eastern Bypass idea. That's double what the Brent Spence Bridge corridor project is supposed to cost. Bevin came into offi ce thinking he could build the new bridge without tolls,
Democrat Andy Beshear speaks to supporters in Louisville after a daylong tour of Kentucky on the last night of the campaign for governor on Nov. 4.DYLAN LOVAN, AP
and he eventually came to the conclusion that's not possible. Some political insiders are wondering if his comments about tolling during the fi nal gubernatorial debate at Northern Kentucky University ended up leading the region turning on him. “There is no way around having some type of tolling on a bridge of this size,” Bevin said during the debate. Beshear has to stand up to the few anti-toll loudmouths in Covington and
fi nd a way. It won't be easy, with a Republican-controlled Legislature that traditionally has viewed Northern Kentucky as part of Ohio. Maybe the size of the project can be reduced even more. Maybe Ohio can chip in even more money. Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is standing by and waiting to work with Kentucky on the bridge. All I know is the bridge turns 56 years old this month, carries double the traffi c it was intended to, isn't safe and needs
replacing. Ohio is ready to go. Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky business leaders are ready to go. This issue lies in the lap of the Kentucky governor. No more studies. No more distractions. No more excuses. Get. It. Done. Email Cincinnati.com political columnist Jason Williams: jwilliams@enquirer.com
How did a Democratic gubernatorial candidate win Kentucky? Scott Wartman and Julia Fair Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
People across the country last Wednesday tried to fi gure out what happened in Kentucky the night before. How did Kentucky Democratic gubernatorial candidate Andy Beshear defeat Republican Gov. Matt Bevin in the GOP stronghold of Kentucky? Northern Kentucky is what happened. The three counties just across the Ohio River from Cincinnati put Bevin in offi ce in 2015 – and took him out in 2019. And here's an astonishing fact: Bevin increased the votes he got from Northern Kentucky by over 50% compared to 2015. Yet that still wasn't enough of the pot to win the majority from the region on Tuesday, Nov. 5. That's because Beshear was able to more than double the votes from Bevin's 2015 opponent. Nowhere in the state did Bevin's support drop more from 2015 than in Northern Kentucky. He lost Kenton and Campbell counties. And in the ultra-conservative Boone County, Bevin won, but his support dropped almost 9.6 percentage points from 2015 – more than any other county. Kenton wasn't far behind, with Bevin's share of the votes dropping 8.8 percentage points, fourth-most in Kentucky. Campbell County ranked 6th in Bevin ennui, where Bevin came in 8 percentage points lower than in 2015. "The results humbled me," said Campbell County Judge-executive Steve Pendery, one of the three Republican judge executives in Northern Ken-
tucky who endorsed Bevin this year. "I didn't expect things to unfold this way." More people voted. And it's clear many Republicans didn't vote Republican, at least for governor. One of those Republicans was Breanna Williams. The Fort Mitchell resident opposes abortion and gun control. She voted for Bevin in 2015. But she voted for Beshear Tuesday, Nov. 5. "I felt that the real issue at hand currently is our public education," Williams said. "Something has to change, and it clearly wasn’t going to change in Bevin’s hands." She took Bevin's feud with teachers personally. She works in the Boone County Schools with special education students. As Bevin tried to reform the pension system, he often picked a fi ght with teachers. The direct Bevin-teacher feud came to a boil in March 2018 when he called educators "selfi sh" and that they had a "thug mentality" during a Bowling Green radio station interview. "I did it for our kids. Our public schools. Our teachers," she said. She wasn't the only one in Northern Kentucky to have a falling out with Bevin. In 2015, Bevin ran up the score in Northern Kentucky, which was the most populous region he won in 2015 and accounted for 20 percent of his vote total. On Tuesday, Nov. 5, the region came out big for his Democratic opponent, Kentucky Attorney General Andy Beshear. About 20 Campbell County precincts that went for Bevin in 2015 instead gave
its majority to Beshear. That's about a third of the 67 precincts in Campbell County. Beshear fl ipped 33 of the 104 precincts in Kenton County in Elsmere, Covington, Erlanger and Fort Mitchell, among others. “Matt Bevin didn’t do very well,” former GOP Secretary of State Trey Grayson of Boone County told The Enquirer. Grayson is one of the few Northern Kentuckians to have held statewide offi ce in recent decades. “Even in Boone County he underperformed.” Grayson added that Democrats "clearly" targeted Northern Kentucky in this election. But it's not that simple. Theories abounded the following morning about why Bevin lost so much support in Republican suburbs. Was it Bevin's support of tolls? Was it a backlash against President Donald Trump sentiment, who held a rally for Bevin Monday night? Was it Bevin's infl ammatory remarks about teachers? Maybe a little bit of everything. For Pendery, Bevin's unpopularity among teachers makes the most sense for why some Republicans voted for Beshear. Pendery lives in Fort Thomas, a conservative suburban city won by all the Republican candidates except Bevin on Tuesday, Nov. 5. In fact, Beshear won 14 of 15 precincts there. It's also a town with one of the highest-rated school districts in the state. Bevin losing Fort Thomas shows the teacher issues sunk his re-election hopes, Pendery said. "It proves without a doubt what happened," Pendery said. "There are few communities in America that love their
schools as much as Fort Thomas. I'm proud of that." Bevin's loss could also signal a warning shot for Trump next year in suburban areas. Trump campaigned for Bevin the day before the election to no avail. Both Bevin and Trump share many similarities, said Ryan Salzman, a political science professor at Northern Kentucky University. "Bevin is almost a carbon copy of President Trump in terms of being bombastic and defying traditional partisan politics," Salzman said. "It has to say something about what the electorate is thinking in 2020. They are not going to just hold their nose and vote for a person in a blue hat or a red hat. A threshold has been crossed." The larger than average turnout across the state may have played a factor. Northern Kentucky had 38% voter turnout. That's about 4 percentage points behind the state's turnout of 42%. It follows the trend of Northern Kentucky averaging about four to fi ve percentage points behind the statewide average since 1999. But voter turnout did skyrocket in Northern Kentucky this year. Each county saw double-digit increases. That could be due to the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce campaign Get Out The Vote. And without that turnout in Northern Kentucky, Bevin would have won, Salzman said. "When we look back on this election in 10 years," Salzman said, "Northern Kentucky will be the area that is mentioned explicitly delivering the election to Andy Beshear."

Sports Schedules set for basketball scrimmages James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
The Notre Dame team meets after the fi nal point as the Pandas fell 3-0 to Assumption in the KHSAA state volleyball semifi nals on November 9. JAMES WEBER/THE ENQUIRER
Notre Dame volleyball team falls to Assumption in state semis James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
LOUISVILLE – The Notre Dame Academy volleyball team is not used to being the underdog. After winning its fi rst match of the day Saturday morning, head coach Molly McDermott predicted her Pandas would play with nothing to lose against nationally-ranked Assumption. The Pandas did indeed give the Rockets everything they could handle and had chances to take control of each set. But the Rockets came up with clutch plays in all three sets to send the Pandas home in the KHSAA state semifi nals. Assumption won 3-0 (25-21, 27-25 2519) Saturday night at Valley High School. Assumption moves to 35-7 with the win over the Pandas, who fi nished 3012. It was Notre Dame’s fi rst trip to the semis since 2015, when the Pandas also lost to the Rockets. “They’re a super team,” McDermott said. “For every facet of the game, they’re good. Our kids left it on the fl oor
and that’s all you can ask from them. They were physically giving everything; every play, you have multiple bodies on the fl oor going for balls.” Assumption will play for its third state title in a row Sunday with its band of highly touted prospects. Senior Rylee Rader, 6-foot-3, has committed to Ohio State and earned Miss Volleyball and All-USA Player of the Year honors last year. DeBeer, a 6footer named this season’s Miss Volleyball tonight, is headed to the University of Louisville. Four other Rockets have Division I mid-major commitments. Notre Dame won a best-of-three match against Assumption in 2015 but has never won a best-of-fi ve match against the Rockets since the current format began in 2004. Notre Dame loses four seniors: Kenley Way, Grace Ward, Gracie Eckerle and Carmen Thapar. Ward was the starting setter. Way led the team in blocks per set. Thapar didn’t play in the state tournament but had 105 kills in 32 matches this season. Senior Alexis Diebold is a
key part of the team as the manager. “They’ve led by example, by actions, by words,” McDermott said. “They don’t just tell you what they want. They do it and set the example. They’ve set the tone for the underclassmen. All the kids look up to them. They’re amazing young ladies with bright, bright futures in whatever they choose.” “We’re a good friend group,” Way said earlier Saturday after the semifi nals. “We love each other and we hang out together outside of volleyball. I wouldn’t want to be on any other team.” Assumption’s twin towers led the way in the match, with DeBeer posting 21 kills and 12 digs. Rader had 15 kills, and senior Savannah Neal (Air Force commit) eight. Two defensive specialists heading to D-I schools, Jenny Wessling (High Point) and Claire Fuller (Jacksonville State) had 17 and 16 digs, respectively. Assumption hit .310 for the match with 49 total kills and only 12 errors. NoSee VOLLEYBALL, Page 2B
The schedules are set for the biggest preseason basketball scrimmage showcases in Northern Kentucky. The Battle of the Borders girls basketball showcase at Ryle High School, and the Kelsey Sorrell Memorial boys hoops showcase at Simon Kenton High School, will once again pair top teams from both sides of the Ohio River against each other. Beechwood will also host a showcase for the second year in a row, featuring small-school powers. The Ryle Battle of the Borders will be Saturday, Nov. 16. Ryle is the defending KHSAA Sweet 16 state champions, its fi rst state title and the second ever by a Northern Kentucky program. Some of the leading challengers to Ryle’s regional throne will be on hand. Highlands loses several seniors from last year’s 29-5 squad, including second all-time leading scorer Zoie Barth, but returns several talented players. Notre Dame lost one senior from a team that went 20-13 and led Ryle for nearly three quarters in the regional semis. Dixie Heights returns three starters from last year’s 22-11 regional runner-ups. Conner lost four starters from last year’s 29-3 team that was ranked No. 1 in Kentucky at times during the year, but returns one of the top post players in the region in Maddie Drummonds.
The Schedule 9:30 a.m.: Highlands vs. Loveland 11 a.m.: Notre Dame vs. Princeton 12:30 p.m: Owensboro Catholic vs. Mercy McAuley, Conner vs. Wyoming (at Gray Middle School) 2 p.m.: Southwestern vs. Pickerington Central 3:30 p.m.: Ryle vs. Roger Bacon 5 p.m.: Boone County vs. Mason See SCRIMMAGE, Page 2B
Horn prepares to dive into his fi rst year as coach at Northern Kentucky J.L. Kirven Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Darrin Horn sat in his offi ce surrounded by the few items that lie within it. His work space is, well, rather dull. Blank charcoal-colored walls are paired with black leather furniture. His desk was clutter-free and dimly lit. He doesn't believe in doing too much. His offi ce only needs the essentials. Despite the emptiness, the objects that rest on his bookshelf clutch your attention and give clues about the man that occupies the corner offi ce. Pictures of his wife, Carla and two kids, Caroline and Walker, showed that he was a devoted family man. A bobblehead of Northern Kentucky University’s president Dr. Ashish Vaidya – which Horn jokes is his prized possession – displayed his school pride and sense of humor. And the two Horizon League championship trophies resting atop the bookshelf revealed that he understood the expectations of being NKU’s new head basketball coach.
“There’s been a high standard set,” Horn said. “I think that only becomes a negative if you think that it’s just going to happen. You have to put in the work to make it happen and continue to grow.” Horn, 46, has seen a lot of success in his relatively young career. The Glasgow, Kentucky, native has taken his alma mater Western Kentucky to the Sweet 16 as a player (1993) and a coach (2008), knocked off the No.1 team in the nation and has developed NBA talent the likes of Jaxson Hayes, Mo Bamba and future hall-of-famer Dwyane Wade. For the fi rst-year Norse head coach, Northern Kentucky provides a new challenge. A challenge that attracted him when the job became available. The Norse have made it to the NCAA Tournament in two of the last three years. Impressive considering that the team has only been in Division I since 2017. The program isn’t cluttered with highly rated recruits yet still manages to win; something that’s very important to Horn. The Norse have never won a tournament game. He hopes to change that.

“The next step is winning some of those games or maybe getting to March and upsetting somebody in the tournament,” he said. “But we’re not getting there if we don’t win our (conference) championship.” That won’t be easy despite the programs prior success. Horn is tasked with coaching a team that was put together by his predecessor John Brannen, who now coaches across the bridge at Cincinnati. It’s also Horn’s fi rst head coaching job since 2012. An opportunity he won-
dered if he’d ever get again after being fi red from South Carolina. Horn went 60-63 with the Gamecocks and was ousted following a 10-21 season and 12th place fi nish in the SEC. It was tough for him to struggle in the biggest opportunity of his career. “South Carolina was mostly adversity, but while he wasn’t able to conquer it never conquered him,” said Mike DeCourcy, a senior writer for The Sporting News.

Even with a losing record, Horn was liked in Columbia. He fi gured that another opportunity would soon follow. He took a job at ESPN as a basketball analyst for the SEC Network to pass the time. Yet it would be three years before he’d get a chance to coach again; as an assistant for Shaka Smart at Texas. “There was some concern that that might not get to happen again,” Horn said. “That’s why I’ll always be so grate-

St. Henry, picked fourth in Northern Kentucky, will be in the scrimmage, led by senior Wyatt Vieth, who averaged 21 points last year and is picked second in Northern Kentucky. Conner, picked fi fth as a team and led by senior Jalen Scott, will also take part. Host team Simon Kenton is led by junior guard Kelly Niece, who averaged 23.4 points last year and is ranked third individually in Northern Kentucky.

ful for Shaka and have so much respect for him and the opportunity that he gave me.” It was in Austin where Horn got to raise his stock as a coach again. Under Smart, Horn developed the Longhorns frontcourt, which saw NBA fi rst-round talent in Bamba and Hayes, a Moeller High School graduate. That is why the basketball world felt that Horn deserved a second chance as the top guy. "He deserves to be a head coach again,” Georgia coach Tom Crean, who coached Horn at WKU and hired him at Marquette, told The Enquirer in April. Horn said he believes in a style of

tre Dame hit .164 with 39 kills and 17 errors. Junior Emma Grace had 12 kills for the Pandas. Junior Anna Long had eight and junior Abby Powers seven. Junior Emily Wichmann had 12 digs and senior setter Grace Ward 10. Despite Assumption’s statistical edge, the Pandas’ determination gave them chances to win each of the three sets. But key errors by Notre Dame late in the fi rst two sets cost the Pandas an opportunity for the upset. In set one, NDA trailed 10-5 before tying the set at 11. Emma Grace had two of her fi ve kills in the set during that run. After Assumption took a 1712 lead, Grace had two aces in a row to cut the defi cit to 17-16. Another ace by libero Emily Wichmann tied it at 18. A pair of kills by DeBeer gave Assumption a 20-19 lead. The Pandas then made errors on successive serves, and it was 22-19. Another kill by Grace made it 2221. At 23-21, the Pandas fi elded a serve that bench players were yelling was going out, and it turned into a Rockets point. Rader slammed a booming kill to end the set. Rader and DeBeer had six kills apiece in set one, and Grace fi ve. In set two, Tess Noll had two aces in a row to give NDA a 5-4 lead.

from Powers and two consecutive aces by Long. Assumption clawed back by extending rallies with scrappy defense, forcing the Pandas into a mistake or getting one of their attackers a clean shot. With NDA leading 19-15, Assumption won a long rally after a Panda shot went just beyond the backline. A pair of kills by DeBeer, followed by a Panda error, cut the NDA lead to 2119. Long pushed the lead back to 2219 with a kill, but a pair of Panda errors after long rallies made it 22-21. Junior Sydney Schroder scored on a kill to make it 23-22.

Horn believes in his ability to lead this program.

Eels! Newport Aquarium announces new exhibit Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
The Newport Aquarium made its big announcement on Friday, Nov. 8 after weeks of teasing on social media. After 20 years, the Dangerous & Deadly Gallery is being completely reimagined for one of the largest new exhibit developments in the history of Newport Aquarium. Shipwreck: Realm of the Eels will be one of the biggest developments since the aquarium opened in 1999, Executive Director Eric Rose said. He said it represents more than a million-dollar investment. The exhibit will be centered around the ruins of a sunken ship, scattered across the seafl oor, featuring bright fi sh and crustaceans. "We're always listening to our guests to fi gure out what new adventures they want in their next visit," Rose said. "To be able to create an artifi cial reef teeming with ocean life, thriving in a sunken ship is really going to wow them." Not only that, but the exhibit will show guests the importance of artifi cial reefs in ocean life, Rose said. Shipwreck: Realm of the Eels will open in Spring 2020. There will be fi ve zones, each featuring diff erent fi sh and designs that will immerse visitors in the shipwreck.
EMAIL: servicedirectory@gannett.com or CALL: 877-513-7355, option 7
The captain’s quarters: This is the centerpiece of the new exhibit, with 5-foot-long moray eels, spiny lobsters and a steering wheel that moves. "It's that iconic image of a shipwreck," Rose said. Rose said he wanted to create an immersive exhibit, that not only brings people enjoyment but lets them "live a little."

Treasure chest: The treasure chest zone features something Rose had on his "must-have" list – a photo op. Rose said the company aims to create "memories worth repeating." So the 270-degree, horseshoe-shaped tank is designed specifi cally for family pictures. He said the gold coins inside and outside the tank will draw people in to take pictures, creating memories to look back on for years. Cargo hold: The cargo hold will feature garden eels and two fi sh with camoufl age – cuttlefi sh and frogfi sh. Ship’s anchor: This zone features an aptly named eel, the chain moray eel runs the roost with a black body covered in yellow chain-like rings. Offi cials said it will share this spot with tangs, triggerfi sh and grouper. Ropes and rigging: Guests will be able to enter the ship’s wreckage and pop-up into a dome to be surrounded by the ropes and pulleys that once held everything together. This zone will contain venomous lionfi sh, scorpionfi sh with their poisonous spines and the purplemouth eel with its long fi n running the entire length of its body.

All restroom activities are done in public toilets controlled by a megacorporation called “Urine Good Company” (or UGC). To control water consumption, people have to pay to use the amenities. There are harsh laws ensuring that people pay to urinate, and if the laws are broken, the off ender is sent to a penal colony called “Urinetown,” never to return. As UGC’s CEO - Caldwell B. Cladwell - uses his strength and infl uence over political leaders, he is met with opposition from the dashing young everyman, Bobby Strong. Bobby is not only leads a revolution but falls in love with a girl - Hope - who just happens to be Cladwell’s daughter. How does it play out? You will have to see.

Do you practice safe-food handling at home? Let’s review the often confusing topic of storing food at home. Take a closer look at these safe practices and see how you measure up. Do you understand what date labeling phrases mean? ❚ “Best if used by/before” indicates when the product is at its peak and is not a purchase date or safety date. ❚ “Sell by” dates tell the store how long the product can remain on the shelf. It also is not a safety date.
A rehearsal of song “Mr. Cladwell.” PROVIDED
❚ “Use by date” is the last date recommended for the product to be consumed. ❚ “Freeze by date” indicates when you should freeze the product to maintain peak quality. Do you know how to safely store your food in the refrigerator? ❚ Is your raw meat on the bottom shelf to thaw? ❚ Are your eggs stored on a shelf, not in the door? ❚ Is your milk stored on a shelf, not in the door? ❚ Are all products you opened or placed in the refrigerator labeled and dated? ❚ Are your leftovers or food properly covered, dated, and stored? ❚ Are your vegetables in the crisper drawer? ❚ Do you have a refrigerator thermometer visible for daily checking? Do you know how to store you food safely in the freezer? ❚ Is all food in a freezer-safe container, labeled, and dated? ❚ Is meat you purchased from the store rewrapped in freezer-safe wrapping, dated, and labeled? ❚ Do you a have a freezer thermometer visible and do you check it regularly? It is important to always practice safe-food handling when you bring food home or store leftovers. You should never have to ask yourself “is the food still safe.” You should know because you practice safe handling of all food.

The Census in Covington 2020 In just the same way as every vote counts in November, every person counts when it comes to the Census. And that is particularly relevant as 2019 winds down and the once-a-decade census process begins. The City of Covington receives more than $7 million annually from the federal government helping to pay for infrastructure and economic development and community projects and funding allocation determined by population. It’s been suggested Covington could have been undercounted in 2010 by as much as 30 percent meaning the city might have lost $2.2 million each year for the last decade. Nationally the government doles out $674 billion every year based on the Census Count. Please join us on Nov. 21 as the CBC Luncheon explores Census 2020: What Covington Stands to Gain/ Lose at The Madison Event Center from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. The following panel of experts will talk about the importance of this process: ❚ Ken Smith, Director of Neighborhood Services at City of Covington ❚ Erin Kendrick-Peabody, Partnership Specialist, U.S. Census Bureau ❚ Travis Gysegum, Manager of Real Estate Data, Catalytic Development Corporation of NKY Tickets are $20 for CBC members and $35 for future CBC members if registered seven days in advance.

Guests left feeling inspired by the theme of the event, “God’s Bridge for Change.” “We are grateful to our supporters who equip us to bring about positive life change for people worldwide,” said Master Provisions President Roger Babik, “Master Provisions relies on donors and volunteers to serve others.” This year, Master Provisions is celebrating its 25th anniversary of serving God by connecting resources to needs. In 1994, President Roger Babik was called to serve and started Master Provisions by sending a container of clothing to Ukraine after the fall of communism. However, Mr. Babik and Master Provisions’ work was not fi nished here. By 2000, 93 containers had shipped globally. To help Master Provisions reach its event goal of $150,000, please donate online at masterprovisions.org/donate. Jamie Johnson, Master Provisions

SCHOOL NEWS ‘Fidelity’s Transformational Day’ at Florence Elementary Florence Elementary may have been “transformed” in a day through the “Fidelity’s Transformational Day” program but the work began over a year ago with Fidelity Investment who partners with Points of Light/Hands on Nashville. Florence Elementary was selected to receive this transformation because of the continuing relationship and partnership formed many years ago with Fidelity. The planning determined the needs and best way to impact the school. Fidelity had over 140 volunteers support the work of service in our community. Hands on Nashville provides a service which connects individuals with opportunities to support non-profi t organizations. The Hands on Nashville crew arrived at the fi rst of the week preparing stations for 140 regional Fidelity volunteers. The group gathered materials, organized, and cut lots and lots of wood leading up to the “Transformational Day.” Even though it was fall break, a sea of green (Fidelity wearing their green shirts) covered Florence Elementary campus inside and outside. The volunteers cleaned fl ower beds and planted new plants in the butterfl y garden, tree path, front entrance, and courtyard. They planted trees around the playground. Fidelity employees were very busy on their hands and knee drilling and hammering to construct many, many benches. The 19 benches can be found mostly around the playground but our parents are taking advantage of the new benches while waiting to pick-up their children. The construction continued in the courtyard creating a castle to go along with our schools mascot the Florence Knights. Other volunteers worked on curriculum support, laminating, compiling packets, creating Rekenreck Boards (Abacus) a math support, and lastly mural paintings which can be found both outside and inside. The murals refl ect the ‘Leader in me’ theme. When our staff and students returned to school it was exciting to visit all the beautifi ed areas. A group of students posed beside these transformed areas holding signs thanking all who were involved for sacrifi cing their time, caring for our school, and leading by example in our community. The volunteers gave our students a sense of pride and ownership by beautifying our school. Fidelity Investment has demonstrated how to help others in the community and they were positive role models for our future leaders. Thank youm Fidelity Investment. Kathy Kuhn, Florence Elementary
Principal of Florence Elementary, Lisa Resing, and her son Michael helped the Fidelity employees during “Fidelity’s Transformational Day.”

Steve Nassano at work in Devou Park. PROVIDED PHOTOS
The Picasso of Lebanon Painter Steve Nassano encourages people to do artwork for inspiration and expression Perhaps when you think of art therapy, you picture people who are recovering from trauma or injury or depression and imagine their quiet paintings to be of butterfl ies or unicorns. Well, let artist Steve Nassano broaden your perspective. His vibrant canvases are full of energy and freshness and the skillful use of materials. He spends his off hours capturing scenes of beauty in the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area, and abroad, with appreciation and immediacy. Oh, in his day job he works as a corrections offi cer at the Lebanon Correctional Institution. It was that organization that awarded him the title of “The Picasso of Art at Lebanon Correctional.” Nassano feels it is important to fi ll one’s head with positive things to off set the negativity in the world and wishes more people would use art as an antidote. “After dealing with murderers and rapists all day, I come home and slap paint on a canvas,” he said recently when he signed in for a plein air event at Behringer-Crawford Museum in Covington this last September. This was BCM’s 27th year for its signature freshART event and auction but it was the fi rst time Nassano had participated. Artists contribute a portion of the sale of their works to the museum for children’s education programs. Nassano set up his easel and large canvas at the overlook in Covington’s Devou Park with a tarp underneath to handle paint splashes. He created a captivating landscape of the Cincinnati skyline, alive with bold colors, daring brush strokes and palette knife fl air, and it danced with light. He was nearly fi nished after only two hours. His painting was well-received by the audience for the gala and live auction the next night and brought a very respectable price. Nassano didn’t just pick up painting as a hobby recently; he had been drawn to drawing since he was a teenager working on his own in Bellevue and even enrolled for lessons at a Covington girl’s school when his own high school did not off er any art classes. As an adult he took lessons from other artist/teachers in the area - at the Capito School of Art in Florence, the Baker-Hunt Foundation in Covington, at Northern Kentucky University, and at the Art Club of Cincinnati, where he later served on the board for a number of years. At 64, he’s had a full and active life. He holds a black belt in karate and remains an active student. He previously worked as a meat cutter, as a chef, served in the military for 27 years (including four combat tours) and has worked for 20 years now at Lebanon Correctional Institution, where his painting of Arlington’s National Cemetery hangs in the deputy warden’s offi ce. He is a fast-talking, high-octane individual - and art has been a driving force throughout his life. Always striving to create something
A Pete Rose painting by Nassano.
fresh in his paintings and framings, Nassano is prolifi c and versatile in subject matter. He creates landscapes, still lifes, Pete Rose action scenes, local landmarks and patriotic tributes. “I emphasize strong colors, heavy textures and use forceful gestures to create energy within a subject,” he says. His style is his own - somewhat impressionistic, somewhat abstract, yet still representational - it does not fi t neatly into any one category. Even though he has traveled on painting trips abroad to Vietnam, to Tuscany and to locations in France, and created works there, he loves to paint Cincinnati area scenes and fi nds them equally worthy. Working mostly in oils, he fi nds inspiration around most every corner and along the banks of the Ohio River. He works “to express all (my) emotions into the paintings – it is a positive experience,” he writes. One of his teachers, distinguished artist, Tom Bluemlein, who led classes abroad and teaches locally, says Nassano has a unique style which he never tried to infl uence. “Be the best that Steve can be,” Bluemlein wisely directed. Currently, Nassano’s paintings can be seen at Purple Paisley, a local artisan shop in Covington, and at the Pendleton Art Center in Cincinnati on Final Fridays and by appointment. His website, www.nassano.com, displays many of his past and current works – including an award-winning entry for the state of Ohio for a painting of Suders Art Store in Cincinnati, which hangs in the House of Representatives in Columbus. Although one might not achieve such notoriety as “The Picasso of Art at Lebanon Correctional Institution,” through artistic endeavor or therapeutic exercise, anyone can take a lesson from Nassano and profi t from the uplifting power of art for inspiration and expression. His enthusiasm for art is contagious. Betty Payne, Behringer-Crawford Museum

OFFICIAL PUBLICATION
OFFICIAL PUBLICATION NOTICE
Please take notice that Duke Energy Kentucky, Inc. has applied to the Kentucky Public Service Commission for approval to revise its Demand Side Management (DSM) rate for gas service and electric service for residential and commercial customers. Duke Energy Kentucky’s current monthly DSM rate for residential gas customers is ($0.012250) per hundred cubic feet and for non-residential gas customers is $0.000000 per hundred cubic feet. Duke Energy Kentucky’s current monthly DSM rate for residential electric customers is ($0.003120) per kilowatt-hour and for non-residential customers is $0.005024 per kilowatt-hour for distribution service and $0.000637 per kilowatt-hour for transmission service. Duke Energy Kentucky seeks approval to revise these rates as follows: Duke Energy Kentucky’s monthly DSM rate for residential gas customers would increase to $0.030735 per hundred cubic feet and for non-residential gas customers would remain at $0.000000 per hundred cubic feet. Duke Energy Kentucky’s monthly DSM rate for residential electric customers would decrease to ($0.003143) per kilowatt-hour and for non-residential customers would decrease to $0.001768 per kilowatt-hour for distribution service and would decrease to $0.000537 per kilowatt-hour for transmission service. The rate contained in this notice is the rate proposed by Duke Energy Kentucky. However, the Public Service Commission may order a rate to be charged that differs from this proposed rate. Such action may result in a rate for consumers other than the rate in this notice. The foregoing rates reflect a proposed decrease in electric revenues of approximately ($7.56) million or (2.13%) over current total electric revenues and an increase in gas revenues of approximately $2.67 million or 2.60% over current total gas revenues. A typical residential gas customer using 70 ccf in a month will see an increase of $3.01 or 4.4%. A typical residential electric customer using 1000 kWh in a month will see a decrease of $0.03 or (0.03%). A typical non-residential electric customer using 40 kilowatts and 14,000 kWh will see a decrease of $17.49 or (1.4%). A non-residential customer served at transmission voltage using 10,000 kilowatts and 4,000,000 kWh will see a decrease of $400.00 or (0.1%). Non-residential gas customers will see no change in their bills from this application. Any corporation, association, body politic or person may by motion within thirty (30) days after publication or mailing of notice of the proposed rate changes, submit a written request to intervene to the Public Service Commission, 211 Sower Boulevard, P.O. Box 615, Frankfort, Kentucky 40602, and shall set forth the grounds for the request including the status and interest of the party. The intervention may be granted beyond the thirty (30) day period for good cause shown. Written comments regarding the proposed rate may be submitted to the Public Service Commission by mail or through the Public Service Commission’s website. A copy of this application filed with the Public Service Commission is available for public inspection at Duke Energy Kentucky’s office at 1262 Cox Road, Erlanger, Kentucky 41018 and on its website at http://www.duke-energy.com. This filing and any other related documents can be found on the Public Service Commission’s website at http://psc.ky.gov. CE-0000710235
