Does Cincinnati have the ‘sorriest’ bus stop? Maybe Hannah K. Sparling Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

This might just be the worst bus stop ever. To your back, there’s a guardrail, standing between you and a steep, treelined hill. To your front, without so much as a curb or sidewalk for protection, there’s a busy street. There’s no crosswalk to help you get safely to the stop. No shelter. No bench. The bus stop on Daly Road in Springfield Township is in the final round of the Sorry Bus Stops competition. It is a sweet-16-style bracket, with winners advancing based on votes. Cincinnati beat out stops in Ann Arbor, Michigan; Mckees Rocks, Pennsylvania; and New Orleans, Louisiana, to make it to the championship match. Now, it is going head-to-head against a stop in Vancouver – a similar stop on the side of a busy highway. Voting opened on Tuesday and will stay open for two days. The winner will be announced later this week. Streetsblog writer Angie Schmitt, who runs the Sorry Bus Stops competition, called Cincy's stop "dreadful." "The only way to get to it is crossing a busy street, and once there, bus riders have no place to wait, unless they are willing to mount the guardrail and wait in the weeds," she wrote. "If they use a wheelchair, it’s practically a death sentence."

When asked about the Daly Road stop, Cincinnati Metro said in a statement that, in general, it tries to place inbound and outbound stops across from each other so riders can get off and on the bus in relatively the same place. “However, due to the limited infrastructure (sidewalks, etc.) available in this neighborhood there were limited options in regards to an ideal location to place this bus stop,” the statement reads. “We are currently in the process of conducting a bus stop optimization project and will be evaluating all of the bus stops in our service area, including this one, to determine ideal placement.” This is the third year of the Sorry Bus Stops competition, said Schmitt, who is based in Cleveland but writes about transit all over the country. "It gets people to step back and look at some of these ordinary situations that are kind of absurd if you take a moment to think about them,” she said. “We hope it puts pressure on the agencies to pay more attention to this issue.” She got more than 40 submissions for this year's contest, she said. Cincinnati’s entry came from an anonymous, out-of-town resident, someone who was driving past, saw the stop and reported it. “Really, it’s kind of cruel that we put people in these situations,” Schmitt said. “No expense is spared for car trips. They’re building billion-dollar interchanges all over the country that shave a minute or two off a 30-minute commute. But we can’t find a couple hundred dollars for (bus) benches.”

Police, fire recruits asked about sex in questionnaire Max Londberg and Jennie Key Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Cincinnati police and firefighter recruits are asked to describe their “most unusual sex act” in a questionnaire that can later become accessible to the public. The questions are part of the Fire and Police departments’ pre-employment process. They raise concerns for some that new recruits are being asked to divulge private details about their sexual history.

To see news for your community, visit bit.ly/YourCommunities

West Chester, Delhi and Colerain townships all ask recruits about legal sexual acts or urges, including one about arousal by fire. Staff at the Ohio Civil Rights Commission reviewed the questions obtained by The Enquirer via several records requests. Turocy said no discrimination lawsuits have been filed in the state pertaining to these types of questions. “However, if someone made an allegation related to any question, espeSee SEX, Page 2A

“This certainly raises eyebrows,” said Mary Turocy, director of public affairs for the Ohio Civil Rights Commission. “Have you participated in a sexual act in a public place?” Cincinnati police and fire applicants are asked. “Location (s) and number of times. ... Explain each circumstance.” Another asks: “Not counting selfmasturbation or legal sexual activity with a willing partner, what was your most unusual sex act?” Cincinnati isn’t the only jurisdiction in the region asking such questions.

cially a question that is somewhat unusual like those, we’d be looking at whether it is relevant to the duties of the job,” she said. Sgt. Dan Hils, the Cincinnati police union president, said he supports the question about sex in a public place, as it is an “indication of law-breaking exposure.” But the question about unusual sex, a version of which he recalled being asked as an applicant, could “possibly be out of bounds,” he said. Questions about illegal sexual activity — sex with minors, sexual assault or possession of child pornography — appear in all of the pre-employment questionnaires obtained by The Enquirer. “What we should be asking about are things that are criminal in nature,” Hils

said. “...Stuff geared more to people’s private, behind-closed-doors lives, I do not see as having a bearing on the work we do.” Lori Adelson, a Florida-based labor and employment attorney who represents employers, said that while she doesn’t specialize in Ohio law, she generally advises against posing questions that are “irrelevant to the functioning of the business and could possibly be deemed inappropriate.” “If I was that employer’s attorney,” she said, “I would recommend they don’t have those questions in there.” The city of Cincinnati said in a statement that “the specific questions mentioned are a small component of a comprehensive questionnaire used during a polygraph exam for prospective recruits. “The polygraph is used to help gauge a respondent’s reactions and responses to difficult questions.” Asking about sexual history is not

uncommon for the region’s first responder recruits. “Ever sexually aroused by fire?” West Chester police recruits are asked during a polygraph background test. They’re also asked if they’ve ever been married to more than one person at the same time, if they’re experiencing “marital problems” and if they “ever (had) sexual relations/contact with a corpse (dead person or animal)?” Barb Wilson, a West Chester spokeswoman, said the Police Department is looking to “determine the character, moral standards and ethical decision making” of its applicants. “The questions asked as part of the polygraph examination should be considered as a collective of questions and not individually,” she wrote by email. “They are designed to gauge reactions and determine truthfulness in the broad range of topics covered.” The city of Norwood asks police and fire applicants if they’ve ever watched others having sex. Emma Schmidt, a Cincinnati sex therapist, said by email that “the way that the questions are asked could present the material in a way that suggests that the behavior would be deemed as a negative and thus stigmatize the behavior.” The Colerain Township Department of Fire and EMS asks applicants about infidelity. “Have you ever had sex, or a sexual relationship with a married co-worker?” says a pre-employment questionnaire. Colerain Police Chief Mark Denney said such questions aren’t lewd but can be revealing.

“The questions we ask that deal with sexual activity are generally limited to illegal activities. We do, however, ask more pointed questions that tend to reveal poor-decision making and lack of character in an applicant,” he said. “Our responsibility to the community is to learn everything about someone before handing them our badge and asking the community to trust them.” Delhi Township police recruits are asked if they’ve “ever posted or transmitted naked/sexual images of yourself over the internet or cell phone app.” Jack Cameron, the township administrator of Delhi, said it’s become increasingly difficult to find a recruit among the younger generation who hasn’t shared a picture of a “body part” with a partner, invoking changing values between generations. He stressed the importance of sexual-based questions in screening applicants. “Being in the business of public trust, I think this is the least we can do to vet prospective employees who will be afforded the public’s trust simply by being a Delhi representative,” he said, adding Delhi’s questions have been reviewed by the township’s employment attorney to ensure they don’t violate applicants’ rights. In 2015, Gov. John Kasich signed a law barring public employers from including on job applications questions concerning an applicant’s criminal background. The “ban the box” law, however, has provisions that allow a background check and consideration of prior convictions based on the nature of the job, according to the Ohio Department of Administrative Services. Turocy, the Ohio Civil Rights Commission spokeswoman, said questions about sexual activity may be problematic in different contexts, but for employers, one factor is key: “Is it necessary for the employer to know that about the employee?” The Enquirer’s Kevin Grasha contributed to this story.

Student death sparks safety talks

DESSERT WITH THE DOCTOR, SPONSORED BY CINCINNATI SPORTSMEDICINE RESEARCH & EDUCATION FOUNDATION Learn how to reduce your knee pain and get back to an active life.

Jennie Key Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

West Side mom Jessica Miller says parents and schools are so caught up with talking to kids about the issue of school violence, they may forget to talk about school safety. But she said a day like Monday – a day that saw a 15-year-old-girl killed and a 17-year-old boy hurt so severely he later died from his injuries – is a sharp reminder that it’s not just kindergarten students who need safety reminders about the rules of the road. Jessica Miller, a mom of four, said the death of Gabriella Rodriguez, hit and killed as she crossed the street to a school bus stop, sparked conversations with her youngsters about safety when walking and she has curtailed some foot travel for the 16-year-old and 13-yearold to areas around Clark Montessori High School. “Kids see adults crossing without crosswalks. They see drivers ignore the crossing guards at school and they think it’s OK. It’s not OK. When things like this happen, it changes the narrative. We’re going to talk about it. You don’t joke around when you get off the bus. You don’t push each other, goofing off. You use the crosswalk. “They roll their eyes. But I’d rather they have a nagging mother than a mourning mother. This is a walking generation. We let them walk everywhere. Now, I think twice.” Miller said she’d like to see schools be more proactive about pedestrian safety. She said school principals should consider running through the walking rules of the road during announcements. And an incident like this highlights the benefits of later start times for high schoolers in her view. “Do we need our kids getting to bus

stops at 6:30 a.m.?” she said. “It’s still dark.” Other moms have had concerns about the safety of Harrison Avenue before the death of a teen on her way to school. Leslie Mattie Rich has two boys, 7 and 10. She said her family talks a lot about pedestrian safety and it’s a concern in her Westwood neighborhood. “We walk all throughout the neighborhood and even in crosswalks my children and I have nearly been hit by drivers that aren’t paying attention or are in a hurry,” she said. “For our family, this is especially true at Montana and Harrison Ave. My oldest likes to watch the news with me in the morning and he saw the story yesterday. We had a ‘refresher’ conversation last night.” It’s more than a family conversation for Rich. She is the chairwoman of the board for Westwood Works and the orSee SAFETY, Page 4A

ganization, in partnership with the Westwood Coalition, has been working with the Cincinnati Department of Transportation and Engineering and other city departments on safety issues in the Westwood area. The groups are pushing for lower speed limits, more crosswalks, and crosswalks with bollards, which are sensor poles and lights that would activate when someone enters the crosswalk to catch the attention of drivers. The groups would also like to see enhanced enforcement of speed limits. “There is still a lot of work to be done to improve pedestrian safety along Harrison Avenue,” she said. Lisa Vogt agrees there is work to be done. She says drivers need to be more aware of pedestrians. “Until drivers start paying attention to the fact that pedestrians – as they are not protected by metal and airbags – should come first, whether or not they

are in a crosswalk, honestly, safety talks are just safety talks,” she said. Cincinnati Police Lt. Steve Saunders, a spokesman for the Cincinnati Police Department, said it’s the responsibility of drivers and pedestrians to pursue safety. Gabriella was not in a crosswalk when she was hit and killed and it is still dark at 6:40 in the morning, an added disadvantage for pedestrians. Police say they are still looking for information about the second car, an older model white Toyota Corolla, that left the scene without stopping. If you have information, call Cincinnati Police Department’s Traffic Unit at 513-352-2514 or Crime Stoppers at 513-352-3040. Visibility, attentiveness to your surroundings, and crossing where you are supposed to cross can all increase safety for pedestrians, he said. And drivers need to be alert, attentive and obey the speed limit. “Drivers and pedestrians need to follow the law and be defensive,” Saunders said. “Both drivers and pedestrians can be distracted. It’s important to be aware, to be paying attention.”

Attack halts mail delivery in Hawaiian Terrace Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Mail delivery has been suspended in Hawaiian Terrace after a reported attack on a mail carrier, forcing residents to pick their mail up from the Corryville post office. The attack happened at Hawaiian Terrace on June 13 around 1 p.m., according to Cincinnati Police. A United States Postal Service carrier said while he was on his normal route, multiple people approached him from behind and “started punching him repeatedly in the face and body,” a police report said. After the attack, the carrier told police said the subjects fled after he used mace to protect himself. The carrier suffered minor injuries and took himself to the hospital, a report said. After the attack, a letter from the postal service said delivery was suspended to the area due to an “immediate threat to the delivery employee.” Residents were told they could pick

mail up from the Corryville Branch Post Office at 2917 Vine between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. The Mt. Airy Town Council said on Facebook that residents have to travel the six miles to get their mail. Police said the victim was unable to identify suspects, but Cam Hardy, a member of the Mt. Airy Town Council, said residents of Hawaiian Terrace are trying to identify the attackers. “Residents are outraged and want a change,” Hardy said. He said the council is doing everything they can to support residents, including meeting with the postal service. Cincinnati Customer Relations Coordinator Charlotte Morrow confirmed delivery was stopped and said there was no plan yet to restart it. She said that the Postal Service would be meeting with Hawaiian Terrace representatives to figure out if they can assure the safety of mail carriers. Morrow said in more than 20 years, she’s never heard of a mail carrier being attacked.

Have a fruit fly problem? A local college dean has solutions. “It’s very common to find them this time of year,” said Gene Kritsky, the dean of behavioral and natural sciences at Mount St. Joseph University. The 1/8-inch long, red-eyed nuisances are drawn to ripened fruit and vegetables and infiltrate the indoors in the summer months especially, Kritsky said. But a few simple steps can prevent them from raiding your home. The flies mature from egg to adult in about a week, and their breeding sites include moist, fermenting spaces: garbage disposals, empty bottles, trash, soiled rags used to clean spills. Even the “finest restaurants in Cincinnati” occasionally must combat fruit flies, Kritsky said, especially when the wine starts flowing. But “good house management or kitchen management will take care of it,” Kritsky said. He recommended taking out the

trash about once every two days, cleaning out disposals by squirting a few drops of dish soap into them and running the blades, storing bananas in the refrigerator and taking up arms should those methods fail. Pesticides can deter fruit flies, Kritsky said, but they shouldn’t be sprayed in food preparation areas. You can also fill a bowl or glass with a sweet liquid — Gatorade or cider vinegar works — and make a paper funnel that is narrow on the bottom. Place the funnel in the container with space between the bottom of it and the liquid. “That’s a very good method,” Kritsky said. “Make your own trap. ... They’ll fly in but can’t necessarily fly out.” Michelle Mink wrote in a Facebook thread with tips that she pours sweet wine and a drop of dish soap into a cup, covers it with plastic wrap and pokes a few holes in the film. “The flies are attracted to it, and once they’re in the substance, they drown,” she wrote. “My cup was filled with them within hours!”

It’s time for Oktoberfest German potato salad and braised sauerkraut Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

Some of the best cooking advice I can give you is: don’t overthink a recipe. I’m certainly guilty of it, as are some of my friends who are really good cooks. Maybe you fall into that category, too. One example stands out. Last year my friend Charlene Castle, a Clermont County reader, and I wanted to make our family’s heirloom sauerkraut. Of course, when the grandparents made it, there was no measuring. Sort of like my Lebanese cooking. A handful of this, a pinch of that. Anyway, Charlene and I measured out the cabbage, the salt, pounded it down just right, and even fretted about the surrounding temperature. Those kraut crocks got more attention than our families. Our husbands told us to just let the kraut alone to do its thing. We didn’t. The result was inedible kraut. Mine was too salty; Charlene’s turned brownish. We’re going to make kraut again this year and are determined to just make it and let Nature do the rest. Anyway, I didn’t want the same thing to happen to my husband Frank’s family “receipt” for German potato salad. There’s no exact recipe. I checked the recipes I’ve made over the years, and decided this one was easiest, and most authentic. Add a little more, or less, of dressing ingredients. Just don’t overthink. Tip Oktoberfest Zinzinnati is Sept. 21-23. Details on their site. Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator and author. Find her blog online at Abouteating.com . Email her at rita@communitypress.com with “Rita’s kitchen” in the subject line.

Simple Oktoberfest German potato salad If you like a more tart sauce, add more vinegar; ditto with sugar if you like it a bit sweeter. I dug up potatoes from the garden. Some were red boilers, others were white bakers. Ingredients Boiled and sliced potatoes, kept warm, about 2 pounds or 6 cups, sliced about 1/4” thick 8 slices bacon, fried and crumbled save drippings, 3-4 tablespoons 1 medium onion, chopped, about 1 cup or so Chopped celery, about 1 cup or so 2 tablespoons flour 2/3 cup cider vinegar or to taste

Braised sauerkraut for brats, metts, hot dogs For the reader who wanted to top his grilled dogs with kraut cooked with beer.

Sprinkle flour over, stir and add vinegar and water. Boil until slightly thickened and stir in sugar, salt and pepper.

Put potatoes and bacon in big bowl, pour dressing over and stir gently until blended. Let sit a bit to absorb flavors, then adjust seasonings. Garnish with parsley. Serves 6-8.

Viewpoints Preventing falls to keep you safe Ron Henlein Guest Columnist Community Press

Every September is Fall Prevention Awareness Month, a time dedicated to bringing awareness and attention to the often overlooked - but critically important - issue of falls among older adults. More than one in four older adults experience a fall each year, including more than three million treated in emergency rooms for fall-related injuries. In Hamilton County alone, falls are the leading cause of emergency department visits and hospitalizations among adults over 65. It’s not possible to prevent falls altogether, but there are several simple steps that can be taken to reduce the risk of a serious fall. Here are some of People Working Cooperativity’s most important tips: Simple Steps to Safety Around the House There are many surprising hidden hazards around the home. Take a critical eye around your home to ensure you’re doing all you can to stay safe. Outside the home, broken and uneven steps should be repaired, and rubber stair treads or textured paint can be installed for added stability. In the living room, move cords and objects out of walkways, use a cushion or

More than one in four older adults experience a fall each year, including more than three million treated in emergency rooms for fall-related injuries. seat riser if seating is too low to easily stand from, and keep frequently-used items organized within easy reach so you’re not climbing or straining for them. In the restroom, slippery conditions can spell disaster for those who may struggle with balance. Add grab bars both inside and outside the bathtub or shower, consider installing a seat or bench to allow you to comfortably sit inside, or purchase a handheld shower to give you more control. Mind Your Medicines Be sure to regularly review your medications with your doctor or pharmacist to make sure any side effects aren’t increasing your risk of falling. Always take your medications as prescribed. If you are experiencing side effects that make a fall more likely, bring it up with your doctor. Vision is Valuable Poor vision is a major factor in falls. Schedule an eye exam at least once per year

to keep eyes functioning at their best and your prescriptions up to date. Good lighting in the home is a key home modification that will keep you safe, too. Be sure to keep bright lights in stairways and entryways, where dangerous falls can easily occur. Also consider installing nightlights in the bathroom and along a walking path if you need to get up during the night. Seek Support Talk to family and friends, and don’t be afraid to enlist their support to make changes needed to stay safe in your home. Many older adults who fall once - even if they’re not injured - may see reduced everyday activities, which leads to weakening and increases the chance of falling again. Be open and honest about your concerns and needs so these modifications can be made, allowing you to continue living the life you love without fear of falling. At People Working Cooperatively, we work hard to keep our seniors and clients with disabilities safe in their homes. Our partners at the Hamilton County Fall Prevention Task Force seek to reduce falls and fall-related injuries through community collaboration, awareness, education, and effective interventions. Learn more tips for reducing your risk of a fall and find additional resources by visiting fallpreventiontaskforce.org.

Mercy McAuley forms an identity through sports Jon Richardson Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Denise Harvey knew there would be challenges. As Mercy and McAuley closed their doors, shedding individual character and storied history, Mercy McAuley High School was forged. But the new school was little more than a name, a husk without cohesive identity and athletic community – fractured parts. Enter Harvey, Mercy McAuley’s newly minted athletic director. Her first order of business was making the fragmented pieces fit, and fast. The merger was announced in March of 2017 and the new school was set to open in August of 2018. According to Harvey, the Wolves have successfully hurdled their obstacles, fusing loose ends through trust, hard work and passion. “For us to kind of work through this in essentially 15 months or so, I think is such a positive thing for our community,” Harvey said. “We asked for a quick turnaround and there was a lot of buy-in for a school that didn’t exist. There was a lot of trust. “Everyone is settling into the new Mercy McAuley Wolves community.” Head soccer coach Mike Rust has seen that sense community first hand, and to him, it is a large reason why the merger has gone as smoothly as it has. “All in all, the challenges have been a lot less than I was expecting,” Rust said. “The first night, our home game, all of the volleyball players came to our game. The first volleyball game all of the soccer players, all three teams, went to their home game. So it’s been really good as far as school spirit. I see no problems with it as far as athletics.” See IDENTITY, Page 2B

CINCINNATI - The initial Ohio High School Volleyball Coaches Association poll reflects the dominance of Cincinnati girls volleyball in the state of Ohio While there’s still plenty to play, defending Division I champion Ursuline leads the pack, with Mount Notre Dame second and Mercy McAuley third. Beyond the top 10, St. Ursula is 13th, Mason 14th, Seton 18th and Loveland 20th. What this means is one league, the Girls Greater Catholic League, has five teams ranked in the state top 20. MND tops the area with nine state titles, followed by St. Ursula with eight, Seton with six, Ursuline five and Mercy four. Mercy and McAuley merged this past season. In the second week of September alone, Ursuline held off MND in five sets at home. The visiting Cougars stormed out in the first two games, then the Lions notched a win with a 13-1 run after being down 18-12 in game three. Momentum swayed Ursuline’s way from there. “The first two games I would have said we don’t belong in the state rankings,” Ursuline coach Jeni Case said. “After those (last) three, we absolutely do. It was great.” Many of the girls know each other from not just the prep rivalry, but from club volleyball. Case’s husband, John Paul, runs Elevation Volleyball, which features girls on both squads plus some from other area schools. “(We) love each other!” Jeni Case said after Ursuline’s triumph over MND. “I love most of those girls on that team. I love their parents. The girls love each other. They all know each other and are very good friends.” That same night, Mercy McAuley suffered their first league loss at St. Ursula. losing the fifth and deciding match. All the Wolves did was come back and knock off top-ranked Ursuline in four sets 25-20. 25-13, 17-25, 2624 Thursday. Greg Samuels, who assisted Denise Harvey at Mother of Mercy, is now the head coach of Mercy McAuley after the merger of the two schools. “We have 10 seniors who all have the ability to contribute to our positive start,” Samuels said. “This is a demanding part of our schedule. We play Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday for a three-week stretch.” Samuels credits the talent level and See GGCL, Page 2B

the commitment to volleyball in this region for the local success at the state level. They have defeated St. Henry and Notre Dame Academy from the Northern Kentucky side, as well as MND, Toledo St. Ursula and now Ursuline. Many of the girls are year-round players who see personal trainers in addition to hammering balls over nets. Chris Lovett has taken over MND from long-time coach Joe Burke, who now is an assistant. The Cougars traditionally play good teams to the north and south. They were 9-0 until losing a pair of knockdown drag-outs to Mercy McAuley and Ursuline. “The region is good and has been for years now,” Lovett said. “I think it will be for a little while.” The past 10 years demonstrates the GGCL dominance most effectively. Ursuline won the state Division I title last season as well as in 2012 and 2009. In 2008, the Lions were runners-up. MND won in 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015 and was runner-up in 2016. In 2007, the Cougars were runners-up to champion Mercy before the tournament was rearranged to prevent such local matchups on the state level. So, not since 2010 has a GGCL team not made it to the state title game. MND’s Lovett remembers when lo-

cal teams could advance to the state semifinals and play one another. However, he sees an upside in the regional approach. “It really makes our regional finals and regional semifinals really something special to go to,” Lovett said. “It’s easily considered the marquees event for volleyball in the city. You have a Thursday night where the gym is packed at Lakota West and you can’t even get in.” Should you enjoy intense atmospheres, a GGCL volleyball game can be a thrill a minute. Student sections are in costume with clever signage and if you’re not in the bleachers by the national anthem, it may be standing room only. “It’s like witnessing a college-level volleyball match,” Samuels said. “If folks haven’t seen high school volleyball in the GGCL, I think they’d be surprised at the level of play and talent. It would rival a Division II game or some small school Division I volleyball.” Added Lovett, “It’s deafening! It’s fun. The students get involved and the cheering sections battle it out. It’s intense. It’s why we do it and I wouldn’t have it any other way.” The OHSAA state volleyball tournament is Nov. 8-10 at Wright State. The smart money says a GGCL team will be there. You’ll be able to tell by the encouraging signs posted along the interstate leading to the Colonel Glenn Highway.

Identity Continued from Page 1B

While building new tradition and identity on the fly can be a tall task, winning certainly does not hurt. “I feel like all the sports have really been the leaders in terms of our community and rallying around our new athletic experience,” Harvey said. “Embracing the first time you are out there in Mercy McAuley orange.” So far, volleyball has led the charge for the Wolves. When the OHSAA week one volleyball polls were released last Monday, Mercy McAuley found themselves gridlocked with traditional powers Ursuline Academy and Mount Notre Dame atop the Division I state rankings. The Wolves have already knocked off second-ranked Mount Notre Dame. Though volleyball has grabbed the state's attention, the rest of Mercy McAuley’s fall athletics do not have a losing team among them. Last week the soccer team was sitting at second in the GGCL standings. The tennis team had a winning record, and the golf team has been competitive. The cross country team, too, has been successful, winning several races, including taking the top spot at the Princeton Invitational. “I think we were optimistic about the strength of our athletic program based on the excellence and the traditions of the two legacy schools,” Harvey said. “I feel like all of our fall sports have really come out very successful, very prepared, very strong, very competitive.”

CCDS announces Lee Pattison Distinguished Teacher Award recipients Jamie Back of Loveland and Tresonne Peters of Forest Park are the 2018 recipients of the Lee S. Pattison Distinguished Teacher Award at Cincinnati Country Day School. Back is an Upper School math teacher, and Peters is a second-grade teacher and team leader in the Lower School. The award is named for Upper School teacher Lee S. Pattison, who taught history at Country Day from 1946-1988. One or two outstanding faculty members receive the honor each year. First granted in 1989, the Lee S. Pattison Distinguished Teacher Award seeks to celebrate teachers who best embody all that Pattison gave, day in and day out: loyalty, creativity, humor, flexibility and integrity. Teachers nominate their peers by reflecting in writing how their nominees demonstrate each of the qualifying characteristics. A committee of administrators and alumni reviews the nominations and determines the winners. Each winner receives a $10,000 stipend spread over three years, and an additional $1,000 to spend for the benefit of the school. Cindy Kranz, Cincinnati Country Day School

YOUR HEALTH with Dr. Owens

Nicotine always unsafe for youth Smoking in the United States continues to decline, with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reporting that 15.5% of American adults smoked cigarettes in 2016, a decrease of 5% since 2005. Smoke-free policies are now common across our region.

Notre Dame Academy. Frances plans to attend University of Cincinnati to study Bio-Medical Engineering. Dave Bell Scholarship – Aversa Prentosito, first in class at Winton Woods High School.

Problem solved, right? Wrong.Tobacco continues to affect the health of many in our region. Many think they are safer by using devices such as e-cigarettes. However, exposure of any kind to nicotine is concerning. E-cigarettes use a battery and a heating element to deliver nicotine vapor to the user. Using such a device is known as “vaping.” Data from the Ohio Health Issues and Kentucky Health Issues polls show that 28% of Ohio and Kentucky adults have used an e-cigarette. Even more troubling is that half of Ohioans and 48% of Kentuckians age 18 to 29 have tried an e-cigarette. Research is under way to better understand the health consequences of vaping, but we do know that these devices deliver nicotine, which is highly addictive and can harm adolescent brain development.

From left are Ron Sprinkle; Dan Baker; Tyler Hausfeld; and Cooper Hausfeld. PROVIDED

CEI Foundation golf outing nets $35,000 for outreach, research, vision programs The Cincinnati Eye Institute Foundation’s (The CEI Foundation) annual fundraising golf outing raised $35,000 this year, its most successful year ever, announced Patrick Ward, foundation president and CEO. Funds raised from “Tee Off for Sight” at the Blue Ash Golf Course support The CEI Foundation vision outreach programs and four free vision clinics for the uninsured and underserved. The event is in its eighth year. “We had spectacular weather and were at our capacity for the course,” said Bob Wassler of Western Hills, golf committee chairman and foundation board member. “CEI Foundation’s vision clinics will serve about 2,700 low-income and working poor in Cincinnati and Middletown this year, something we’re very happy about.” Dr. Dan Miller, CEI chief medical officer, said during the outing that thousands of adults see a clearer future because of the foundation’s help. “More than 7,000 patients have been seen at our CEI Foundation vision clinics since they’ve been established,” he said. “CEI physician volunteers are very proud of the good work we’ve been able to do with our community outreach,

education and research initiatives.” Golf outing winners included: RDI Corporation of Cincinnati, first place; and Oswald Company, Inc., second place. Cooper Hausfeld of Wyoming, an amateur golfer attending University of Southern California, was first in the men’s division for the longest drive at Hole Number Eight at Blue Ash Golf Course, and Lisa Frey of St. Elizabeth Healthcare was first in the women’s division for longest drive. Event presenting sponsor for the seventh year was Fifth Third Bank. Silver sponsors were Dr. Michael Petersen and Beth Binasio; St. Elizabeth Healthcare and Oswald Company. Bronze sponsor was John Dovich & Associates. The CEI Foundation is the philanthropic arm of Cincinnati Eye Institute. It is committed to supporting programs designed to promote and maintain a lifetime of good vision. Foundation programs include four vision clinics for the underserved and the Dr. Richard S. Kerstine Vision Outreach program, which provides free screenings and lectures on a variety of vision-threatening conditions affecting aging eyes. Melinda Zemper, Oak Tree Communications LLC

It’s a well-known fact that for many senior citizens in the U.S. their home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 50% of their total net worth. Yet, according to new statistics from the mortgage industry, senior homeowners in the U.S. are now sitting on more than 6.1 trillion dollars of unused home equity.1 With people now living longer than ever before and home prices back up again, ignoring this “hidden wealth” may prove to be short sighted. All things considered, it’s not surprising that more than a million homeowners have already used a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage or “HECM” loan to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement. However, today, there are still millions of eligible homeowners who could benefit from this FHA-insured loan but may simply not be aware of this “retirement secret.” Some homeowners think HECM loans sound “too good to be true.” After all, you get the cash you need out of your home but you have no more monthly mortgage payments.

NO MONTHLY MORTGAGE PAYMENTS?2 EXTRA CASH? It’s a fact: no monthly mortgage payments are required with a government-insured HECM loan;2 however the homeowners are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees. Another fact many are not aware of is that HECM reverse mortgages first took hold when President Reagan signed the FHA Reverse Mortgage Bill into law 29 years ago in order to help senior citizens remain in their homes. Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement. Although today’s HECM loans have been improved to provide even greater financial protection for homeowners, there are still many misconceptions. For example, a lot of people 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

FACT: In 1988, President Reagan signed an FHA bill that put HECM loans into law. huge blessing for seniors living on a fixed income. Unfortunately, many senior homeowners who might be better off with HECM loan don’t even bother to get more information because of rumors they’ve heard. That’s a shame because HECM loans are helping many senior homeowners live a better life. In fact, a recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one HECM lender, found that over 90% 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. The cash from a HECM loan can be used for any purpose. Many people use the money to save on interest charges by paying off credit cards or other highinterest loans. 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 an informed decision. Homeowners who are interested in learning more can request a free 2018 HECM loan Information Kit and free Educational DVD by calling American Advisors Group tollfree at 1-855-288-2556. At no cost or obligation, the professionals at AAG can help you find out if you qualify and also answer common questions such as: 1. What’s the government’s role? 2. How much money might I get? 3. Who owns the home after I take out a HECM loan? You may be pleasantly surprised by what you discover when you call AAG for more information today.

With a HECM loan, no monthly mortgage payment is required. A HECM increases the principal mortgage loan amount and decreases home equity (it is a negative amortization loan). AAG works with other lenders and financial institutions that offer HECMs. To process your request for a loan, AAG may forward your contact information to such lenders for your consideration of HECM programs that they offer. When the loan is due and payable, some or all of the equity in the property no longer belongs to borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan with interest from other proceeds. AAG charges an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium, closing costs and servicing fees (added to the balance of the loan). The balance of the loan grows over time and AAG charges interest on the balance. Interest is not tax-deductible until the loan is partially or fully repaid. Borrowers are responsible for paying property taxes and homeowner’s insurance (which may be substantial). We do not establish an escrow account for disbursements of these payments. A set-aside account can be set up to pay taxes and insurance and may be required in some cases. Borrowers must occupy home as their primary residence and pay for ongoing maintenance; otherwise the loan becomes due and payable. The loan also becomes due and payable when the last borrower, or eligible non-borrowing surviving spouse, dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, defaults on taxes or insurance payments, or does not otherwise comply with the loan terms.

Towne Properties to participate 20th Light the Night Walk benefiting Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Towne Properties has participated in the Cincinnati Light The Night® Walk, LLS’s annual fundraising event held each fall to find cures and provide access to treatments for blood cancer patients, since its inception in 1999, and has raised well over half a million dollars. This year will be their 20th Walk and they are hoping to remain a Top 3 Corporate Team for the 20th year in a row, with seventeen of those years being the No. 1 Top Fundraising Corporate Team. The Light the Night Walk is a fundraising campaign benefiting LLS and their funding of research to find blood cancer cures. Coming together for a common goal, friends, family and co-workers form fundraising walk teams. Millions of consumers also help by donating at retail outlets. Culminating in inspiration and memorable evening walks every fall, participants in more than 150 communities across North America join carrying illuminated lanterns to take steps to end cancer - white for survivors, red for supporters and gold in memory of loved ones lost to cancer. “Towne Properties’ initial support of the good work of LLS began because of the loss of an employee’s bother at a young age. We have participated in the Light the Night Walk since its inception in 1999 and have selected new honored heroes, with a connection to one or more of our employees, to walk in support or memory of since then,” said Beverly Casey, Towne’s Human Resources Director. This year the group is walking in support of an employee’s father who is battling multiple myeloma and in memory of another employee’s daughter, who passed away suddenly last fall after being diagnosed with leukemia (AML). This year, Cincinnati Light The Night will be held on Oct. 11, at Yeatman’s Cove. “When a loved one hears the words ‘you have cancer,’ it is a dark and scary time,” said Tom Carleton, Tri-State Chapter E.D. “LLS’s Light the Night Walk brings light to the darkness of cancer through hope, research and support for patients, families, friends, doctors, nurses, researchers, colleagues and care givers.” LLS is the world’s largest voluntary health agency dedicated to finding cures for leukemia, lymphoma,

myeloma and other blood cancers. Through its efforts it has invested more than $1 billion in cutting-edge research to advance therapies. Thanks to research, survival rates for patients with many blood cancers have doubled, tripled and even quadrupled since the early 1960s. Yet, despite these advances, about one third of patients with blood can-
