Shooting of Marcus Daniels remains unsolved 8 years later Amber Hunt Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

For the families of victims killed in unsolved murders, life has been at a standstill for a long time, even before the pandemic arrived. Over the next several weeks, The Enquirer will highlight a series of cold cases, summarized and analyzed by the journalists whose careers largely focus on unsolved murders: the creators of Cincinnati.com’s Accused podcast. If you have any information on any unsolved case, please reach out to the appropriate law enforcement agency. Suggestions for cases to highlight can be sent to accused@enquirer.com. The crime: Marcus Daniels had just helped his grandmother unload groceries when he walked out to his car parked in front of her Madisonville home. That’s when Margaret Daniels heard gunshots. The 78-year-old woman – who raised Daniels herself – remembers the next haunting moments all too well. She remembers a cell phone in her hand. She wore a shoe on just one foot. She left behind her walker as she rushed outside. Worst of all, she remembers seeing Daniels, slumped inside of his car, not responding as she cried out his name over and over again. “It’s a terrible thing to remember,” she said quietly. “Just a terrible thing.” That was April 13, 2012. Eight years later, the slaying is still unsolved. Rough background: Daniels’ biological parents weren’t around much, so Margaret Daniels stepped in to raise him as her own. As much as she loved him, there’s some damage that goes along with being a kid whose parents step out, and Daniels could come across as standoﬃ sh at ﬁ rst. “He was out there on the streets,” Margaret Daniels recalled, “until his child was born. “He really was trying to turn things around for his little girl.”

Margaret Daniels witnessed the shooting death of her 26-year-old grandson, Marcus Daniels, in April 2012. She’s pictured in a portrait taken in 2017 at the ﬁ rst Mothers Against Gun Violence cookout. Marcus Daniels’ slaying remains unsolved. THE ENQUIRER FILE

His child, Mariah Daniels, was then 19 months old. Today, she’s 10. Her great-grandmother said Daniels had fallen in love with the girl before she was even born. “He called me and said, ‘Gran,’ and he was crying,” Margaret Daniels said. “I said, ‘What’s wrong?’ He said, ‘I’m gonna be a father. I’ll ﬁ nally have something that’s mine.’ “I guess he felt like he didn’t have anything he could call his own until her.”

Gran’s theory: Whoever killed Marcus Daniels appeared to target him, tracking him down at his grandmother’s house and shooting him 10 times. It seems like a classic case of overkill, the kind police often assume means the killer knew the victim. Margaret Daniels believes that whole-heartedly. She said that a few months before Daniels was killed, her grandson and See SHOOTING, Page 2A

JDRF brings fundraiser to homes with four-course meal Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The annual JDRF Bourbon & Bow Tie Bash will be held with small groups in private homes this fall because of the COVID-19 outbreak. The Southwest Ohio chapter of JDRF, formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, hopes to raise more than $100,000 at the event on Saturday, Oct. 17. The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation changed its name to JDRF to reﬂ ect that it is working to cure Type 1 diabetes, an autoimmune disease that

can strike people of any age. Instead of hosting a gathering in one place for this year’s Bourbon & Bow Tie Bash, the local JDRF chapter based in Kenwood is providing ticket buyers with everything they need to host a small event Oct. 17 in their own homes with their immediate families and friends, the JDRF said in a press release. “This model allows us to keep the magic and fun of the event, but do it in a safe and responsible way,” JDRF Executive Director Melissa Newman said in the release.

A luxury kitchen goods retailer will no longer close its only Cincinnati area location at the end of September. Sur la Table in the Rookwood Commons & Pavilion shopping center in Norwood was scheduled to close at the end of the month after the Seattle-based company ﬁ led for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in July. The company announced plans to close 51 of its 121 locations. The local Sur

Dealing with ‘Zoom fatigue’ JDRF has hosted two virtual events amid the pandemic, but says they’re “starting to see that people are struggling with virtual events and dealing with ‘Zoom fatigue,’” according to the release. Tickets for the Bourbon & Bow Tie Bash are $125 and include a four-course gourmet meal themed around bourbon. Bourbon, wine, beer and seltzer water will be served. “Best of all, the at home party kit will be dropped oﬀ via contactless delivery

la Table was not listed among those initial closings. “Just wanted to let you know, there has been a reversal of the decision to close our store. We were informed Thursday night that our lease had been renegotiated, and we will be staying open,” said Kelly Waggoner, of Sur la Table, in an email. The Rookwood Commons Sur La Table is the upscale retailer’s only location in the region. The closest stores outside of Cincinnati are in Columbus and Indianapolis.

JDRF plans to oﬀ er some supplemental virtual programming to enhance the experience of the Bourbon & Bow Tie Bash. “We’re working with some of our bourbon experts and local celebrity mixologists to come up with some virtual tastings and online cocktail demos for our guests,” Newman said. “The beauty of our approach to the event, though, is that it gives people the ﬂ exibility to structure their event however they want.” For more information, visit www.jdrfbourbon.org.

another man had been pulled over in Kentucky. It was just before Christmas, and Daniels supposedly had provided police some intelligence in a drug case to avoid spending the holidays away from his baby girl. Margaret Daniels thinks that someone learned he had assisted police and wanted revenge. “They were supposed to be his friends,” she said. “I kept telling him, ‘Those aren’t your friends. Those are your associates and you need to get away from them.’” She hopes that sharing Daniels’ story will help young people dabbling in street life. “Maybe I’ll plaster this all over the stores and let the kids know what happens when you’re out there on the streets,” she said. What should happen: Since starting my career some years ago, the no-

tion that informing on criminals is slimy – I’ve heard “snitches end up in ditches” more than once – has arisen time and time and time again. I know of innocent men on death row because they refused to “rat” on a buddy. I know of killers whose body counts kept tallying because no one had the guts to step forward and point a ﬁ nger. Enough. Daniels was a high-risk victim, no question, but that doesn’t mean his family doesn’t love him, nor that they don’t deserve to know what happened to him. As Margaret Daniels said: “I know people know who did this. I know they know. I just don’t understand how your heart could let you know something and not tell.” Got tips?

COVID-19: New program brings 175K tests to Hamilton County Hannah K. Sparling Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A new program is expected to provide 175,000 COVID-19 tests in Hamilton County from now through the end of the year. Test and Protect is a partnership with the Health Collaborative that will focus on providing tests in the areas that need them most. Organizations or community leaders can make a request for testing, but health offi cials will also be looking for hotspots or areas where people are most vulnerable. That could mean testing grocery store employees, fi refi ghters or other front-line workers. It could mean testing at a nursing home or other group living facility. It could mean testing at a homeless shelter. “It’s going to be data-driven,” said Hamilton County Health Commissioner Greg Kesterman. “We’re going to look at hotspots, look at where we need testing, and move into those locations to make sure there’s access to testing.” Hamilton County is devoting $18 million to the new program, part of the county’s CARES Act funding. To request testing for your communi-

ty or organization, go online to healthcollab.org or call 513-618-3656. If you don’t want a visit from a census taker, local oﬃ cials are urging you to go online to ﬁ ll out the form yourself. Hamilton County’s response rate is 65.9% so far. That’s down from 67.2% at

this point in 2010. “That means a greater share of nonresponding homes will need to be visited by census takers,” said Hamilton County Board of Commissioners President Denise Driehaus, “an especially challenging task now that the census bureau has shortened the door-knocking time frame by four weeks.” Census takers will be knocking on doors until Sept. 30, Driehaus said, but she urged people to fi ll out the form online to avoid a visit altogether. The form is available at my2020census.gov. “I’ve done it. It takes about fi ve minutes,” Driehaus said. “If you don’t want someone knocking on your door, then fi ll out the form. “It is so easy, and we desperately need to be counted in order to receive the federal support that we have been using throughout this pandemic.” So far, the Hamilton County areas with the highest census response rates are Mt. Washington, Miami Township, Wyoming and Green Township, Driehaus said. Those with the lowest rates are Over-the-Rhine, Corryville, CUF and Queensgate.

Agave & Rye coming to Norwood Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Agave & Rye will open one of its “modern Tequila and Bourbon Hall” restaurants at the Rookwood Exchange in Norwood on Sept. 20. The restaurant at 3825 Edwards Road will serve its signature tacos, appetizers and desserts, as well as more than 70 varieties of tequila, more than 90 varieties of bourbon, specialty cocktails, wine and beer, Agave & Rye said in a news release. The Covington-based Agave & Rye chain already has restaurants in Liberty Township, Covington, Lexington and Louisville. It plans to open more in Troy and New Albany, Indiana, this fall, the release said. Each Agave & Rye restaurant displays the work of local artists. They have outdoor patios and vintage arcades and play eclectic music. “These are very exciting moves for Agave & Rye,” said Yavonne Sarber, founder and CEO of Agave & Rye. “We are looking forward to bringing our restaurant ... to more communities throughout Ohio and Indiana.”

Madeira cops charge man for stomping on Trump signs Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Madeira police have charged a Portsmouth man with stomping on yard signs supporting President Donald Trump and are asking the public’s help in ﬁ nding who defaced 26 Black Lives Matter yard signs. Aaron Bruewer, 40, is set to appear in Madeira’s Mayor’s Court on Sept. 16 on misdemeanor charges of criminal trespassing, criminal mischief and disorderly conduct in connection with the Sept. 1 vandalism of the campaign signs. “Just over the past couple of weeks

we have seen a bit of an escalation,” Mayor Nancy Spencer told Enquirer Media partner FOX 19. Recently, Spencer says someone was caught on camera stomping over signs supporting President Donald Trump. After that, she said police took reports of Black Lives Matter signs that were vandalized. She said a majority of the signs had the ’v’ in ’Lives’ covered over. “So they read ‘Black Lies Matter,’ which as you can imagine has been pretty painful for a lot of people in the community. I just feel very alarmed to see this escalating tension with how people are communicating with each other,”

she said. Madeira police said in a release that Buewer’s arrest is related to the Sept. 1 incident. “Mr. Bruewer entered the yard of a Madeira home knocking over and stomping on several yard signs,” the release stated. “The entire incident was captured on a doorbell security camera.” Madeira police said in a second press release that they are trying to identify the driver of a black sports utility-style vehicle in connection with defacing yard signs over the Labor Day Weekend. Police said the incidents occurred in

the early morning hours of Sunday, Sept. 6, between midnight and 2 am. “Nine residents reported damaged or defaced signs to Madeira Police Department, but oﬃ cers discovered at least 26 total signs during their patrols had been defaced,” the release said. “The safety of everyone in Madeira and their personal property is our top priority. We want every resident to be able to exercise their right to free speech and display whatever sign they choose without fear of it being damaged.” Anyone with information or security camera footage is asked to contact the Madeira police at 513-272-4214.

Bid, laugh and make an impact at virtual party to help children For the fi rst time ever, the public doesn’t have to buy a ticket to join one of the best and longest summer fundraising parties of the year. The Rotary Club of Cincinnati’s Believe 2 Achieve auction event, with comedian Josh Sneed and mixologist Molly Wellmann, is going virtual as a response to the COVID-19 health crisis. From Sept. 10 to Sept. 19, the public will have a chance to bid on vintage bourbons, including a rare bottle of 10year-old Old Rip Van Winkle handmade bourbon that you can’t fi nd in the liquor store. It is valued at $500. Additional auction items include fi ne art, from a Salvador Dali etching to a Jim Borgman cartoon, near and far vacations and gift baskets for everything from car care to dining. One-of-a kind experiences on the auction block include a quail hunting excursion with guides and Irish setters and fi shing on a private lake in Indian Hill. “The auction is a treasure hunter’s dream” said Rotary Executive Director Linda Muth of Anderson Township. “And you don’t have to leave your home to fi nd that treasure.” “Virtual” is becoming a way of life for nonprofi t fundraising during the pandemic, but Believe 2 Achieve is diff erent because the nonprofi t throwing the event isn’t taking one penny of the money raised, said event co-chair Carl Kappes III of Wyoming. Proceeds from the Rotary’s Believe 2 Achieve are divided among three nonprofi ts serving children with disabilities: Stepping Stones Camp Allyn, The Autism Society Greater Cincinnati and The Down Syndrome Association of Greater Cincinnati. Since Rotary started the event in 2012, Believe 2 Achieve has raised more than $1 million for the three charities, said Kappes, who is president of the Rotary Club of Cincinnati’s Rotary Foundation, the philanthropic arm of the Rotary Club and organizer of the event.

Stepping Stones camper Henry Mussari, left, of West Chester, shares a moment with camp staff Maddy Davis of Anderson Township. Many children with autism or other sensory challenges cannot wear masks during the pandemic. PROVIDED

John Fahrmeier of Anderson Township also co-chairs the event. “This year it is more important than ever because these three great organizations have been hit really hard during the pandemic,” said Kappes. “Income is down, a lot of fundraisers have been canceled. They’ve had to invent new ways to get services to the kids and families that need them. And that means new expenses to keep those services safe and available.” The Rotary has been holding virtual meetings during the health crisis, so the virtual party is a natural extension. Details on how to join the party and bid are on the website www.cincinnatirotary.org Here’s how the public can participate. h BECOME A SPONSOR: Sponsor-

ships from $250 up to $5,000 are available through September 11. Sponsor thank-you gifts include whiskey specially blended for Believe 2 Achieve by Mixologist Molly Wellmann for those at the $500 level and above. All sponsors receive gourmet chocolates and specialty cocktails mixed for the event by Wellmann and delivered to their homes prior to the event. Sponsors also are eligible for a drawing for dinner for 4 with wine pairings at the Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza Hotel Palm Court. h SILENT AUCTION: silent auction bidding starts Sept.10 and ends the night of the event, Sept. 19. h HOUR OF POWER: The Believe 2 Achieve event is 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 19, with co-MCs comedian Josh Sneed and Molly Wellmann. The evening will be fun-ﬁ lled with a special

guest appearance by author and Reds bat boy Teddy Kremer, a cocktail demonstration by Wellman and a live auction featuring a spa trip to the Biltmore Hotel in Ashville, N.C. and a resort stay at the historic Victorian Hotel del Coronado in California with 100,000 Delta Skymiles included in the package. h SEND A CHILD 2 CAMP: The online campership drive will begin at the event and continues through Sept. 28. The camp drive supports the three organizations’ recreation, respite and education programs serving children with disabilities and their families throughout the year. “Our generous donors allow us to continue to oﬀ er classes like martial arts, cooking, music, educational webinars and more,” said Jim Hudson, executive director of the Down Syndrome Association of Greater Cincinnati. “We had to adjust many of our programs and services,” said Hudson, of Oakley. “Our cheerleading program is always one of the most popular programs of the year. Everyone learns a cheer and then they have the opportunity to perform at a variety of high schools throughout the area. Last month, cheerleading made its Virtual return. While everyone danced in their own room, the joy and sense of togetherness was palpable,” Hudson said. “It was a moment where we could connect and share a favorite activity.” Chris Adams, executive director of Stepping Stones, said his agency redesigned its summer camp programs to meet stringent health, safety and distancing protocols. “We took temperatures, sanitized hands, kept campers in small groups in outdoor shelters and program sites. We sanitized before and after every activity,” he said. Stepping Stones was one of four camps in the state allowed to operate. Peggy Kreimer Hodgson Rotary Club of Cincinnati

Say hello to The Enquirer’s new food and dining writer The Cincinnati Food & Wine Classic hosted its fi rst Grand Tasting last year at Washington Park. Foodie journalists Francis Lam, Keith Pandolfi and Andrew Knowlton attended. Pandolfi is The Enquirer’s new food and dining writer.

Keith Pandolfi Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

I moved away from this city about 20 years ago. But like any Cincinnatian worth his salt, I never really left. I came back all the time: during the four years I lived in New Orleans; during the 16 I lived in New York. As a food writer for publications such as Saveur, Serious Eats and the Wall Street Journal, I paid close attention to the changes that were happening here and covered them whenever my editors let me. I wrote about the ambitious young chefs who came here from New York or Chicago to open the restaurants they always dreamed of in Over-the-Rhine; I wrote about the new generation of bakers and brewers who were making their own dreams come true in abandoned buildings, from OTR to Oakley. Yes, I knew the city was up-and-coming. I just didn’t know how far it had come. When I moved back here with my wife, Amy, and our young daughter last year, an old friend welcomed me home with lunch at Tortilleria Garcia in College Hill where Omar Garcia, a native of Michoacan, Mexico, makes some of the best corn tortillas I’ve ever tasted. Soon after, a couple friends of ours took us to Ripple Wine Bar. Over pinot noir from the Willamette Valley and cheese from Urban Stead in East Walnut Hills, we felt like we were back in Brooklyn, only better, because we were in Covington, instead. When Amy and I went out on our fi rst Cincinnati date night, we toasted our move over old fashioneds at Longfellow, followed by one of the better dinners we’ve had in years at Salazar. Before the pandemic put the kibosh on, well, everything, last March, I spent my days driving around and taking in all the area had to off er. I remained faithful to the classics, of course: a cheeseburger at Zip’s, a pint of Guinness at Arnold’s; a three-way at (take-your-pick chili parlor, because I don’t want to tick anyone off ). But I was equally taken by newer offerings: the perfect serving of hash browns and neckbone gravy at Sacred Beast; the confi t tuna sandwich at Faus-

FILE

to at the Contemporary Arts Center; the old-school ham-salad sandwich at HomeMakers. I fell in love with Covington. Where Chris and Tess Burns were cooking up perfectly fried Kentucky rabbit, sumac brick chicken and other Southern/Appalachian fare at Commonwealth Bistro. And Hisako “Chako” Okawa, a Le Cordon Bleu graduate who was serving exquisite matcha roll cakes and Japanese curry soup at her namesake bakery and cafe on Main Street. As a product of Anderson Township, I kicked myself for not realizing the magic of the West Side earlier in life. The ﬁ rst time I slipped into a booth at Maury’s Tiny Cove and ordered an old fashioned, Amy said, “I haven’t seen you this happy since the day we got married,” and she was exactly right. I guess my enthusiasm for the city’s food scene came through when I met with the Enquirer staﬀ last month to discuss writing about it full-time. Because yes, Cincinnati, I’m your new food and dining writer. Not your new Polly Campbell, mind you. Because Polly is Polly. Because Polly is forever. But as a writer, I hope I can make the same kind

of inroads Polly once did into your hearts and, of course, your stomachs, even if that might take a little while. Tastes, I know, are subjective: A varied mix of nostalgia, our own discerning (sometimes stubborn) palates and the power of suggestion by a friend or, perhaps, a critic. No matter what you grew up eating, whether it was reﬁ ned home cooking made by your Williams-Sonoma-loving parents, or a plate of afterthe-soccer-game riblets at Applebee’s on Beechmont Avenue, all of these foods work their way into our souls. I know from experience that you can appreciate the simplicity of a perfect French omelet from French Crust as much as you can an overstuﬀ ed Western version from Bob Evans. Sure, I can be critical. I get frustrated by structurally unsound sandwiches; I worry this city’s obsession with pork belly might be getting out of hand; I get downright angry when the music is wrong or too loud for a restaurant. I feel anxious when a server has to explain a menu concept to me. But given what the restaurant industry is going through under COVID-19, I’m

not going to be too picky. This pandemic’s taken a dire toll on our city’s food workers, and it’s not over yet, folks. That said, I’m amazed by how so many of them have pivoted to help save themselves, and in some cases, each other. From Jose Salazar turning Mita into a distribution center for free meals for restaurant workers to Suzy DeYoung of La Soupe working with chefs and farmers to salvage dumpster-bound food to create not just nutritious, but restaurant-quality foods for those in need. Finally, in a food world that’s going through a much-needed reckoning, I realize it’s my responsibility to write for everyone. To ask questions about the things I don’t understand. To try and see things through a lens that’s not mine and mine alone. I promise to pay as much attention to the new Sichuan restaurant in an exurban strip mall as I do the next American bistro that opens on Vine Street. I want to understand why a perfect pho makes a person feel as comforted as I do when I sit down for a perfect three-way at a favorite chili parlor. I want to learn. I want to explore. But, most of all, I want to eat.

Top 5 breweries in NEW TIMES REQUIRE Cincinnati right now NEW THINKING PAID ADVERTISEMENT

Matt Koesters Special to Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

After three months of relative peace in Cincinnati’s virtual craft beer community, it’s time for another pot-stirring installment of the Greater Cincinnati Brewery Power Rankings. Before we get into the power rankings, I’ll point out once more that this is my list, based solely on my opinions and criteria. Although I don’t have a rubric or scorecard I’m using to tabulate the results, I’m taking a variety of factors into account.

5. Fifty West Cracking the rankings for the ﬁ rst time at No. 5 is Fifty West. I’ve always had a high opinion of the Mariemont brewery – its Coast to Coast IPA is a frequent visitor in my beer fridge, and I’m partial to their Ocean City strawberry gose. But what has propelled Fifty West into my power rankings is its most recent additions to its Remus Revenge series of big dark beers. Much of the attention from its most recent stout release has rightly gone to the coﬀ ee-coconut version of Ghost of Imogine, which wowed those few who managed to score some – achieving an average score north of 4.5 stars on Untappd is quite a feat, and adds another deserving brew to the contenders for 2020 Cincinnati Craft Beer of the Year.

4. Brink The fuel behind most of the complaints my fi rst power rankings column generated was the omission of Brink, the Great American Beer Festival’s reigning, defending, two-time Very Small Brewery of the Year. Like many other Cincinnati destination breweries, Brink has been hit harder than its larger competitors by the coronavirus pandemic and eff orts to stop its spread. That was part of the rationale behind my decision to leave them off the fi rst list. But Brink’s fanatical following con-

vinced me to take another look. I’ve been blown away in the past by their Callista Flocheart New England IPA, and trying it again gave me a strong reminder of why this brewery belongs in this conversation.

3. Sonder Holding steady at No. 3, Sonder has probably got the most solid packaged beer lineup of any brewery in the city. It’s a great combination of high quality and variety. But what really has me excited for Sonder’s future is their fruited sours. Bella, their recently released raspberry sour, is a BOTY contender in my mind.

2. Listermann After debuting in the top spot of my inaugural power rankings, Listermann slips to No. 2 in this installment. Although the slight drop is more about the current top contender’s hot streak than its own failings, Listermann has committed a few missteps recently. Virtual Full Nelson, the exclusively Nelson Sauvin-hopped triple NE IPA brewed in collaboration with Wisconsin-based Untitled Art, fell far short of my expectations. It was really green, you guys. That being said, Listermann remains Greater Cincinnati’s top producer of pastry stouts – their Beavermann stout series made in collaboration with Illinois-based Lil Beaver were all fantastic.

1. Streetside Seizing the top spot is Streetside, whose recent eff orts have been almost uniformly stellar. The Columbia-Tusculum brewery’s contribution to the Black is Beautiful project blew me away. In addition, barrel-aged Interstate Pastry Fight – an imperial donut stout aged in New Riff bourbon barrels made in collaboration with the Barrel House and Evans Bakery in Dayton – showed that Listermann is defi nitely no longer the only player in the pastry stout space in Cincinnati.

Better read this if you are 62 or older and still making mortgage payments.

It’s a well-known fact that for many older Americans, the home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 45% of their total net worth. And with interest rates near all-time lows while home values are still high, this combination creates the perfect dynamic for getting the most out of your built-up equity. But, many aren’t taking advantage of this unprecedented period. According to new statistics from

misconceptions. For example, a lot of people mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a HECM loan, which is not the case. In fact, one key advantage of a HECM is that the proceeds will first be used to pay off any existing liens on the property, which frees up cash flow, a huge blessing for seniors living on a fixed income. Unfortunately, many senior homeowners who might be better off with a HECM loan don’t

Not only are people living longer than ever before, but there is also greater uncertainty in the ecomony. With home prices back up again, ignoring this “hidden wealth” may prove to be short sighted when looking for the best long-term outcome. All things considered, it’s not surprising that more than a million homeowners have already used a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) loan to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement. It’s a fact: no monthly mortgage payments are required with a government-insured HECM loan; however the borrowers are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees. Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement. Although today’s HECM loans have been improved to provide even greater financial protection for homeowners, there are still many

even bother to get more information because of rumors they’ve heard. In fact, a recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one HECM lender, found that over 98% of their clients are satisfied with their loans. While these special loans are not for everyone, they can be a real lifesaver for senior homeowners - especially in times like these. The cash from a HECM loan can be used for almost any purpose. Other common uses include making home improvements, paying off medical bills or helping other family members. Some people simply need the extra cash for everyday expenses while others are now using it as a safety net for financial emergencies. If you’re a homeowner age 62 or older, you owe it to yourself to learn more so that you can make the best decision - for your financial future.

*Source: https://reversemortgagedaily.com/2019/12/17/senior-housing-wealth-reaches-record-high-of-7-19-trillion Reverse mortgage loan terms include occupying the home as your primary residence, maintaining the home, paying property taxes and homeowners insurance. Although these costs may be substantial, AAG does not establish an escrow account for these payments. However, a set-aside account can be set up for taxes and insurance, and in some cases may be required. Not all interest on a reverse mortgage is taxdeductible and to the extent that it is, such deduction is not available until the loan is partially or fully repaid. AAG charges an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium (where required by HUD), closing costs and servicing fees, rolled into the balance of the loan. AAG charges interest on the balance, which grows over time. When the last borrower or eligible non-borrowing spouse dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, or fails to comply with the loan terms, the loan becomes due and payable (and the property may become subject to foreclosure). When this happens, some or all of the equity in the property no longer belongs to the borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan balance. V2020.06.30

Oktoberfest salads are ‘part of the fun’ during celebrations Clara’s German potato salad

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist

If you like a tarter sauce, add more vinegar; more sugar if you like it a bit sweeter.

This weekend we celebrate Oktoberfest. Now, I’m sure gatherings will be scaled down due to the pandemic, and some of you will be doing Oktoberfest at home. Oktoberfest salads are part of the fun. My German mother-in-law, Clara, made the best German potato salad. I remember it warm, with a bit of a bite from the vinegar. Problem is, like so many heirloom recipes, Clara’s wasn’t written down. So after a few tries, I came up with something yummy and similar. Maybe you’d like an authentic cold cucumber salad for the festivities. Try Iron Skillet restaurant’s specialty. No kidding, it’s so good and diﬀ erent from what you might expect.

Red potatoes are waxy and hold up well. Ditto for all purpose potatoes, like Yukon gold. White bakers are starchy and break up a little after cooking. But go ahead and use what you have. Ingredients Boiled, peeled and sliced potatoes, kept warm, about 2 pounds or 6 cups, sliced 1/4” thick 8 slices bacon, fried and crumbled – save drippings (I had about 1/4 cup from thick sliced bacon) 1 medium yellow or white onion diced, a good cup or so 2-3 ribs celery, diced

German potato salad. PHOTOS BY RITA HEIKENFELD/FOR THE ENQUIRER

2 tablespoons flour 2/3 cup cider vinegar or to taste 1/3 cup water or to taste 1/4 cup sugar or to taste Salt and pepper

1 tablespoon salt

Like Iron Skillet’s cucumber salad

Parsley (optional)

1-2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

Laszlo Molnar’s Hungarian restaurant, Laszlo’s Iron Skillet, www.ironskillet.com, offers authentic fare and scratch breads made in their Clermont County restaurant. Laszlo and his sister, Monica are passionate about carrying on the tradition their parents started in 1973. The original restaurant was in Mt. Washington. I’ve changed Laszlo’s recipe a little from one I’ve shared. It’s hard to know how many cucumbers to use so go to taste. Like a milder garlic taste? Peel and smash the garlic instead of mincing, then remove before serving.

1 cup each sugar and clear or cider vinegar

Ingredients

Pour over cucumbers and mix. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Put potatoes and bacon in bowl, pour dressing over and stir gently until blended. Let sit a bit to absorb flavors, then adjust seasonings.

Top each serving with sour cream and paprika to taste.

Garnish with parsley.

Cook onion and celery in drippings until tender but not brown.

⁄ 4 cup water

Paprika and sour cream (optional but good) Instructions Put sliced cucumbers in bowl, sprinkle with salt and toss. Let sit at room temperature one hour. Put in colander and drain, put in bowl, add garlic and mix. Whisk sugar, vinegar and water until sugar dissolves.

4-6 cucumbers, unpeeled if young, small and tender, peeled if larger and skin is thicker, sliced real thin

Sprinkle flour over, stir and add vinegar and water. It will look lumpy. Boil until slightly thickened, whisking as you go, and then stir in sugar, salt and pepper.

Tip: Warm potatoes absorb sauce better.

SPORTS BOYS SOCCER

Sycamore’s toughness turns program around Alex Harrison Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Sycamore’s 2018 boys soccer season ended with an opening-round tournament loss to Greater Miami Conference rival Lakota East and solidifying a 4-11-2 record for the season. After that season, Brian Fallon jumped as head coach from the Sycamore’s girls team to the boys team and the improvements were quickly noticeable. The 2019 season started a bit slow for the Aviators with an 0-3-1 record to begin the year, but a 4-3 win over Colerain started a run where Sycamore won ﬁ ve of six games and gave itself a winning record that lasted the rest of the season.

Sycamore fi nished the 2019 year with a 10-6-3 overall record and a 7-1-1 mark that was good enough for a secondplace fi nish in the conference. In 2020, the improved program didn’t have a slow start to the year. The Aviators went 4-0-1 in its fi rst fi ve games, matching their win total from just two seasons ago and putting them at No.3 in the fi rst area coaches poll. The current Sycamore squad is older an experienced with 13 players listed as seniors and nine as juniors. Two seniors, Alex Rozenfeld and Jonah Snyder, are in the conference’s top fi ve goal scorers with Rozenfeld’s seven goals at the top of the leader board. See SYCAMORE, Page 2B

Moeller High School graduate Brent Suter’s public service eff orts have been recognized as the left-hander has been named a nominee for the Roberto Clemente Award by the Milwaukee Brewers. From the release: Major League Baseball recently announced the 30 club nominees for the 2020 Roberto Clemente Award, an annual recognition of the MLB player who best represents the game through extraordinary character, community involvement, philanthropy and positive contributions, both on and off the fi eld. The nominees were scheduled to be offi cially recognized during the 19th annual Roberto Clemente Day, which was established by Major League Baseball to honor the late Hall of Famer’s legacy as a humanitarian. Indians right-hander Carlos Carrasco won the award in 2019. The Roberto Clemente Award winner will be selected via a blue-ribbon panel that includes Commissioner Rob Manfred, representatives from MLBaffi liated networks (MLB Network, FOX Sports, ESPN and TBS) and MLB.com, as well as Roberto’s children, Enrique, Luis and Roberto Jr. Fans can vote for the Roberto Clemente Award via mlb.com/clemente21. Here are Suter’s accomplishments as posted in the nomination: Even in this strangest of seasons, baseball’s greenest player is considering ways to help the planet. Next on Suter’s list of initiatives: team travel. Suter recently partnered with the American Conservation Coalition Campus, The Nature Conservancy and Players for the Planet on a program called Sidelining Carbon, which is focused on reducing the climate impact of professional sports team travel. The goal, embraced so far by the Brewers and the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks, is to off set at least 50% of the carbon footprint associated with team travel by 2025 through the purchase of carbon credits. Prior to that eff ort, Suter was the public face of a program to recycle all of the million-plus plastic cups at Miller Park into bottles of SC Johnson’s “Scrubbing Bubbles” cleaner. And he also brought environmental consciousness into the clubhouse, helping to convince teammates to ditch singleuse plastic water bottles in favor of reusable glass bottles. “You’re seeing the role that athletes play on a lot of really important social issues right now, from race and income inequality to climate,” said ACC Campus president See AWARD, Page 2B

New OHSAA head answers ﬁ rst press questions Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

COLUMBUS - A day after being named executive director of the Ohio High School Athletic Association, veteran administrator Doug Ute addressed state media via teleconference and Zoom meeting. The 11th leader in the 113-year history of the organization has spent the past 20 years as a superintendent with Marion Elgin (nine years) and recently in Newark (11 years). He has also been OHSAA Central District Athletic Board treasurer since the 2011-12 season. Ute addressed a variety of topics with reporters from all over the state in a teleconference, some of which are highlighted here:

What prepared him for this job? “As a school superintendent, even as a principal or athletic director, my background was working with budgets and staying within the budgets,” Ute said. “I’ve been fortunate in my time as superintendent to only ask for new money one time. I have extensive experience with the budget process.”

First order of business?

Playoff venues

“We want to stay in communication with all of the diﬀ erent associations that belong to us,” Ute said. “The athletic directors, principals, superintendents, oﬃ cials, coaches associations and those type of things. I really want to reach out to them and really work hard at uniting us as a group, particularly in these challenging times, to work together to make sure our student-athletes have the opportunity to compete.”

With regard to Gov. Mike DeWine’s order through the Ohio Department of Health on playoﬀ s and spectators: “If you can have 15% or a maximum of 300 (for indoor activities), what venues are you going to rent out?” Ute said. “I’m of the belief ... that our coaches, athletes and parents just want to compete. The venue won’t be as important right now as it has been in the past.”

Competitive balance

How severe is OHSAA ﬁ nancial crisis?

“It’s still a work in progress and still being evaluated,” Ute said of the possibility of having separate public and pri-

“It is severe, but I’m of the belief that we’re always going to have the Ohio High School Athletic organization and

the organization is going to provide student-athletes with an opportunity to compete,” Ute said.

Postseason venues for 2020 Some postseason venues are set, some aren’t. For football, will the ﬁ nals make it to Canton this season? “It’s too early to determine,” Ute said. “I was in a meeting with a sport management folks and that’s one thing we discussed, to have those backup plans. One thing we’ve learned since March is things can change weekly or daily. We’re going to continue to work with the governor’s oﬃ ce and the Department of Health and Lt. Gov. Husted and go from there.”

(and Appleton, Wis., native) Benji Backer. “The impact Brent has had by being one of the most active advocates in the community is massive. From ocean plastic to climate change, the amount of people who Brent has inspired, and I’ve seen it on social media, is incredible.” -Adam McCalvy “I’m extremely honored to receive my team’s nomination for the Roberto Clemente Award,” Suter responded. “While I don’t feel worthy of the honor, I’m very grateful to receive the nomination and I’ll do my best to follow the example Roberto Clemente set for all of us.” Suter was drafted by the Brewers out of Harvard in the 31st round in 2012 and has been with the Brewers in the big leagues since 2016. Coming oﬀ of Tommy John surgery, Suter was named the National League’s Reliever of the Month for September 2019. He’s been a popular guest of many outlets in relation to his environmentally-conscious eﬀ orts on Earth Day. Suter

vate postseasons come out of the competitive balance situation. “I still want to familiarize myself with that and look and see if it is accomplishing the goal that it set out to accomplish. It’s still ongoing. I would lean against (separate playoﬀ s) that highly. ... It may not be 100% but it may be the best situation we can get our students in right now.”

Three Aviators are also in a secondplace tie in assists. “We are an experienced group,” Fallon said. “We understand the pressure of our conference and the pressure of our schedule. I have been happy with the boys’ eff orts and their intensity and their focus.” Sycamore began the season with a 3-2 win at Kings but was disappointed to follow with a 2-2 tie to Moeller. The disappointment dissipated and Sycamore won its next three games by a combined score of 14-3. According to Fallon, brushing off the tie was a show of his team’s mental and physical toughness, something he aimed to strengthen from Sycamore teams of the past. “I grew up in Milford and played at Milford High School,” Fallon said. “Our goal was to win the physical and mental battle against our opposition. I’ve kind of brought that mental toughness to these guys and its mandatory that you work your butt off on the fi eld. “I think they’ve embraced that mentality. In previous years. Sycamore had the reputation of being somewhat soft when it comes to the physical game and that was the fi rst thing I addressed.” With GMC play started, Sycamore will need to use that new toughness if it wants to achieve its fi rst season goal of winning the conference and beating the team that’s long stood in its way: Mason. Mason, winners of six of the last eight conference seasons, is the only undefeated and untied team left in the GMC. The two teams meet at Sycamore

Sycamore’s Jonah Snyder controls the ball against Colerain on Sept. 3. The Aviators won 3-1, including one goal by Snyder, to bring their overall record to 4-0-1 and 1-0 in the Greater Miami Conference. TONY TRIBBLE/FOR THE ENQUIRER

on Oct. 1 in a game that could play out to be the conference decider. “I think that game should be one everybody should try to make, if possible,” Fallon said of meeting Mason. “It should be a doozy. We’re still little brother to them. My guys are gonna be pretty

wound up to play well and see if we can beat them.” A conference win would be Sycamore’s sixth league title and ﬁ rst since 2016. Mason joined the GMC in 2007, 18 years after Sycamore’s arrival, and has collected eight league titles.

With travel expenses recently cut and entry fees added, will some schools opt out of participating in postseason tournaments? “I doubt that,” Ute said. “By not being able to ﬁ nish the winter season last year and not having athletics in the spring, when schools started workouts in June, the reports I got were that there was a record number of kids coming out to these things. They want to participate. They miss that. It’s important for their development as a teammate, but (also) to the mental health of our students to participate. We’re not hearing that right now and I would not anticipate that.”

Thoughts on CPS sports still on pause It’s week three of football in Ohio, but Cincinnati Public Schools haven’t played. They’ve had intra-squad scrimmages. Though the OHSAA can’t step in, is that the right thing to do for the kids, to be stopped from doing what others are already doing? “Kids want to be part of things and I’m sure it’s diﬃ cult to watch kids at other schools compete when they’re not able to right now,” Ute said. “It’s that mental health piece we talk about. It’s not only from a competition standpoint in athletics. It’s from a mental health standpoint of getting kids back in the classroom, back around their peers.”

Coach Continued from Page 1B

Xavier so I was a volunteer assistant there. She asked me again and I was like, “Yes I would love to,’ It seemed like a good timing thing. “Knowing that (Jeni’s daughter) Logan (Case) was a senior I knew there was potential for the job to be open. I put my name in with hopes that it would work out and here we are today.” Butcher, who played collegiate volleyball at DePauw University, had previous high school coaching stops along with her season at Xavier, but her now four seasons at Elevation Volleyball Club have helped with the full immersion into Cincinnati’s volleyball scene. Butcher was working in the offi ces of Elevation Volleyball Club and later joined the coaching staff where she coached Logan and connected with Jeni and began a coaching relationship. “I’ve really gotten to know Jeni,” Butcher said. “I feel like we have a very good connection in terms of our relationship and collaborating. She guides me in a lot of ways and I look to her mentorship a lot. “She’s been here. She was raised here and is very aware of the volleyball world here in Cincinnati. I’m not from here so her guidance has been helpful along with others up there at elevation.” Butcher, a Bloomington, Ind., native, said playing the schedule loaded with highly ranked brand of volleyball Cincinnati high schools provide was a welcome surprise and one she needed to adapt to in order to succeed at Ursuline Academy. Butcher’s start as head coach began with a 3-0 start that included a sweep of last season’s Division II state champion, Fenwick. The fi rst big test came with Girls Greater Catholic League rival Mount Notre Dame on Sept. 1. Mount Notre Dame won the match in three sets decided by a total of 11 points. It was a growing moment for Butcher as well as the new team under hew wing. Ursuline Academy’s roster has 14 names of which six are seniors, but only one player, Hailey Green, has played for more than two full seasons. The Lions had to replace Case, a GGCL Player of the Year and No. 2 on the OHSAA’s all-time assists list, and Emma Gielas, an All-State selection. A mix of seniors and sophomores, including Lindsey Green who took over the setter role, stepped up and the transition to a new program has been smooth. Ursuline Academy will meet Mount Notre Dame on Sept. 22 and also has matches against Louisville powerhouses Mercy Academy and Sacred Heart. The Lions could show just how close the young team is from taking over or maybe could even show the future is closer to taking over than it appears.

Dog training class for kids Sycamore Township Certiﬁ ed Dog Trainer and Certiﬁ ed Dog Bite Prevention Educator Lisa Desatnik, CPDT-KA, CPBC, with So Much PETential is now offering a unique online dog training class just for kids). My Dog, My Best Buddy, teaches young kids how to train their dog, and also how to be someone their dog will want to listen to (and how they can be a good listener to their dog’s communication). They will learn how dogs communicate, how to be a positive teacher, and how to play dog games with food. “So often I see kids who love their dog but their actions cause their dog to create distance from them or become excessively jumpy and bitey, which can even be dangerous. Young children don’t often know how to understand their dog’s communication and needs, and how to interact appropriately. Teaching them how to be the friend their dog wants them to be and even how to teach their dog fun behaviors is so important to

Here’s how contact tracing is working at one local business: Are the places you go following the same safety guidelines? As people get back into their regular routines while adhering to the mask-wearing and safe distancing protocols at their workplace, favorite restaurant, grocery story or health club, many of them are wondering, what happens in the event that a worker or customer may have possibly become infected, or had contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19? Cincinnati Sports Club has implemented a 7-step process for Contact Tracing. “Contact tracing is key,” says Mary Frank, a member of the Executive Leadership Team at Cincinnati Sports Club. “We have been very transparent in sharing information with both our members and our staff when it comes to their safety. Our Security and Risk Management Team developed a Contract Tracing protocol in May, while our facility was still closed. We have repeatedly amended this plan quite a few times, as the guidelines have changed.” Frank continues, “In the event that a club member or staff member believes they have a possible COVID infection, we refer to that person as Person Under Investigation or PUI. The PUI is interviewed regarding where they think they might have contracted the virus, when they were last at the club, what area of the club they used, and who they came in contact with.” “We then confi rm the answers by reviewing the PUI’s usage history for the prior two days from when they either developed symptoms or fi rst suspected an infection. At a Club, members are checking in and the club management software stores the check-in history of all members.” “Then we review the 40 video cameras on our campus to verify the PUI’s answers just to make sure we have a complete and accurate picture of their whereabouts within the Club, and everyone that they came in contact with (within 6 feet of for more than 15 minutes) during the 48 hour timeframe.” “We then notify all individuals who came in contact with the PUI. The PUI’s name remains anonymous due to HIPAA unless they authorize us to release the information. We also determine if any of these individuals he or she was in contact with are infected.” “Lastly, if the PUI tests positive for COVID, we inform the Hamilton County Health Department. In the case of a child or childcare worker, we also inform the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. If the PUI is an employee, we complete another questionnaire for compliance with OSHA requirements.” Frank concludes, “Our members are very compliant and respectful of both the social distancing and mask wearing rules and, I am happy to report that we have no evidence of anyone contracting COVID-19 at the Cincinnati Sports Club campus. I advise gym members everywhere to ask how your facility is handling suspected or positive COVID cases. Contract tracing is the recommended protocol for health clubs.” In its 30th year, and locally owned and operated, Cincinnati Sports Club has grown steadily across 16 sprawling acres at 3950 Red Bank Road in Fairfax, Ohio. It is accessible by three street entrances – at 3950 Red Bank Road, 5535 Murray Avenue and 3939 Virginia Avenue. For more information about the Cincinnati Sports Club, visit CincinnatiSportsClub.com.

SYMMES TOWNSHIP – A team including seven current and former CHCA students triumphed in the 2020 Teen Challenge, earning Best Film honors and three additional awards for a fi lm titled The Voice in the Night. Judges named CHCA ’19 alumni Gabe Schmidt and Trevor Cebulskie as Best Director and Best Editor, respectively, and University of Cincinnati sophomore Jack Curnutte earned Best Actor honors for his work in the fi lm. Awards were given out Aug. 23 during the event’s online premiere screenings. The team included CHCA senior Jonah Bolander, plus alumni Jack Bolander (’18), Abby Cates (’19), Cebulskie, Carter Jackson (’17), Schmidt, and Malcolm Vanderwoude (’19). Lakota West junior Maggie Drake was the team’s producer, and Curnutte and fellow University of Cincinnati sophomore Trinity Hamm acted in the fi lm. Team members wore masks the whole weekend except when actors had to remove them for their scenes. “Despite the uniquely diffi cult circumstances this year, the team was able to pull together and create something we can be proud of,” said Schmidt. Schmidt wrote and directed the fi lm. Cebulskie served as editor, Jonah Bolander was cinematographer, and Jackson composed an original score. According to the event rules, the team’s director, cinematographer, editor, and producer must be 19 or younger; other team members can be older. CHCA has fared well in this event the past four years: h In 2017, Schmidt won Best Film, Best Director, and Best Screenplay with a fi lm that Jackson scored. h In 2018, a team of thirteen current and former students won the Audience

Choice award and placed second overall in the competition, with CHCA alumnus Ben Paris (’19 of West Chester) earning Best Actor honors. h In 2019, eight current and former students won Best Film and the Audience Choice award, with Schmidt claiming Best Director and Cebulskie being named Best Editor. In the competition, which was held Aug. 6-9, each team drew a genre and a movie title, and had just 72 hours to make a short fi lm (3-6 minutes) that fi t both. CHCA’s team drew the category of an “escape” fi lm. Given the title The Voice in the Night, the group constructed a plot in which a mysterious voice sends one man on a perilous journey. The team took inspiration from The Matrix and The Truman Show to create a science fi ction story line and used Cates as the titular voice who speaks to Curnutte’s character. “It was my very fi rst time working on a fi lm,” said Curnutte. “They made the transition a whole lot easier. The script was very well written. The other actors were very talented. It was a very special and talented group.” Both Bolanders, Cebulskie, Jackson, Schmidt, and Vanderwoude all gained valuable skills from the Audio/Visual Production class of CHCA Technology Department Head Adam Cool. This is the sixth year of the TFC, which is put on by The Underground Academy of Cinematic Arts. Twenty teams competed in the fi lm challenge; 16 fi nished on time and had their fi lms shown in the competition. The competition is open to teens in a 500-mile radius of Cincinnati; competing teams were from Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Missouri, and Kentucky.
