Harrison mother who fought COVID-19 for two weeks dies Anne Saker Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Cris Baumann of Harrison, the subject of a recent story in The Enquirer about her family dealing with the new coronavirus, died Aug. 24 at Mercy Health West Hospital, her daughter said. She was 77. Her daughter Tammy Simendinger of Harrison said Aug. 25 that Baumann died in the intensive care unit after a two-week bout with COVID-19, the illness that results from infection from the virus. “My brother and I met the priest up there last night, and obviously, she was in a glass enclosure room, and they wouldn’t let us in the room,” she said. “The priest gave her the last rites through the glass.” The ICU nurse caring for Baumann “stayed in the room with mom and held her hand and prayed with her, so she wasn’t alone.” Since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic in March, COVID-19 has been fatal for at least 175,000 Americans, including at least 281 in

Hamilton County. Baumann’s struggle was the subject of an Enquirer story last week about the disease and the pressure that families endure as they wait for news of their loved ones in area hospitals. Baumann grew up in Waynesville and moved to Cincinnati when she married Earl Baumann, a Cincinnati police offi cer. After her husband died in 2004, Baumann moved to a Harrison condo that she decorated with an animal theme. For decades, she was a champion bowler and a bowling instructor for hundreds of children at Western Bowl. She is survived by her daughter, son Earl Baumann Jr., four grandchildren and close friend Rick Oberhage of Harrison. Simendinger said funeral plans are pending because Simendinger is awaiting the results of her own coronavirus test. But the service for mother will be scheduled at St. John the Baptist Church, “then after that, we’ll go to the Harrison Bowl. That’s kind of a fi tting way to send Mom home.”

Great Parks eyes Gamble estate in Westwood Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Great Parks of Hamilton County is investigating the possible purchase of property in Westwood where the historic Gamble house used to stand. But a representative of Great Parks said she cannot say more at this time about discussions with the Greenacres Foundation, which owns the 22-acre property at 2918 Werk Road. Greenacres President Carter Randolph has asked Great Parks to keep mum, Jennifer Sivak, Great Park’s director of marketing and public engagement, said. “While our board has authorized us to continue discussions with Greenacres regarding the potential purchase of the Gamble property, the owner has

requested that we keep this confi dential and do not discuss this with others,” Sivak said. Randolph said earlier this month that the Greenacres Foundation has gotten proposals to use the Gamble property as a park, a subdivision and an event center. He would give no details.

Westwood Coalition keeping tabs Greg Hand, president of the Westwood Community Urban Redevelopment Corporation (WestCURC), said he also understands that organizations other than Great Parks apparently are interested in the Gamble property, although he hasn’t seen specifi c plans.

Man to be released from prison after murder conviction thrown out Kevin Grasha Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A man who has spent 13 years in prison for a death that happened after a fi ght will be released, after pleading guilty Aug. 20 to a lesser charge. At a hearing in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court, Ralph Carusone pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter in the 2006 death of Derek Rininger. The two men fought outside Rininger’s home in Addyston. It was an Alford plea, meaning Carusone, 37, still maintains his innocence but pleaded guilty to manslaughter because he believed it was in his best interests, Judge Leslie Ghiz said in court. Ghiz sentenced him to the time he already has served in prison. Carusone, who was convicted of murder in 2007, was serving a possible life sentence. He was eligible for parole in 2025. His attorneys spent more than a decade challenging the conviction, and last month a federal appeals court ordered a new trial. In the opening paragraph of its opinion, a three-judge panel for the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said a lower court had “plainly misapplied” Supreme Court precedent. It also said prosecutors had relied on a theory at Carusone’s trial – that he “plunged (a) knife into the victim’s heart – which later was discredited by medical records that were not turned over to Carusone’s attorneys. The opinion says prosecutors “wrongfully suppressed” those records, although Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters has said it was always understood to have been “inadvertent.” Deters noted that three pages of records used by a deputy coroner to determine Rininger’s cause of death were turned over. Prosecutors never received the other

WestCURC is a member of the Westwood Coalition, which is keeping tabs on the property. The coalition also includes the Westwood Civic Association, Westwood Works, Westwood Historical Society and business owners. “Members of the Westwood Coalition and its affi liated organizations have spoken to representatives of the Cincinnati Public Schools, Cardinal Land Conservancy and Great Parks of Hamilton County,” Hand said. “The coalition is ready to talk with anyone interested in community input. “It is fair to say that the Westwood community will support a proposal that preserves open space in our neighborhood for education and recreation,” Hand said.

documents from the coroner’s offi ce, he said. In court Aug. 20, Carusone declined to make a statement, as his attorneys, Bill Gallagher and Elizabeth Conkin, stood to his right. Gallagher told Ghiz he has lived with the case for 11 years and was pleased it fi nally had been resolved this way. Assistant Prosecutor Seth Tieger talked about how several other courts had ruled against Caursone, that he “didn’t deserve” another trial. About the 6th Circuit’s decision to order a new trial, Tieger said, “I respectfully disagree with their reasons.”

Fight stemmed from theft of $500 According to court documents, the fi ght stemmed from Rininger’s theft of $500 from his former girlfriend, who was dating Carusone. The girlfriend drove with Carusone to Rininger’s home after midnight to get the money. Rininger ran down a hill, to the car’s passenger side, where Carusone was sitting, and “took a swing at” him, the

offi cer for the Cincinnati Public Schools, said. “We do not currently have plans to make an off er.” The Cardinal Land Conservancy, a regional land trust based in Milford, did not respond to requests for comment. The Gamble property’s zoning would allow construction of one house per 10,000 square feet of the land, which the Greenacres Foundation believes is worth as much as $2 million, Randolph said earlier this month.

Section of Victorian mansion stood more than 170 years The Gamble house, a Victorian mansion with a section that stood for more than 170 years, once was owned by James N. Gamble, son of a founder of Procter & Gamble and the creator of Ivory soap. The house was torn down in 2013. The residentially zoned Gamble property has a cottage, two barns and remnants of a greenhouse on it. The Greenacres Foundation is a nonprofi t education, research and preservation group based in Indian Hill. Randolph has said Greenacres decided to give up the Gamble property after dropping 10-year-old plans to develop an environmental and agricultural education center there for children in kindergarten through third grade.

documents say. The two men then fought outside the car, and Carusone “retreated back to the passenger seat.” Rininger ran to the other door and tried to reach through the window for the keys. The two men “scuffl ed again,” the documents say, before the girlfriend drove away. At some point, Rininger was cut and/ or stabbed with a pocket knife. Rininger – who had cocaine in his system – “ran up the hill and into his house,” the documents say. He then emerged from a back door, circled back to the front porch and “jumped off the side of the steps.” He eventually called 911 and reported

he had been stabbed. He went into cardiac arrest after paramedics arrived. After Carusone was convicted, a forensic pathologist hired by his mother reviewed the undisclosed records and determined Rininger died from cardiac arrest caused by the combined eff ects of multiple drugs and alcohol and the stress and exertion from the physical confrontation. The forensic pathologist said a hole in the right side of Rininger’s heart – which the prosecution had presented as a stab would – was likely caused by medical treatment involving a needle. Carusone will be supervised by authorities for the next fi ve years.

The Greenacres Foundation doesn’t expect to decide on the sale of the property until the beginning of next year. Editor’s note: Information included

How parents can mentally prep for school year

3A

Anne Saker Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

“Kids are really looking to us to understand how to navigate this really difficult time. Parents can be modeling that for your kids, even saying out loud, ‘This is kind of a tricky situation, I don’t know what I’m going to do, I’m going to learn more and then I’ll make a decision.’ ”

Toni and Matt Durban of Price Hill took on certain tasks in raising three young sons. Toni was the negotiator: Do this, you get that. But looking back on her parenting in 2020, Toni says, “This pandemic has broken me down.” “I don’t even care anymore,” she said, laughing, “now I say if you want it, take it, I’m so sick of fi ghting with them.” Seven months after its arrival in the United States, the new coronavirus is injecting uncertainty into every back-toclass routine. Family-life experts off er fi ve ways parents can prepare mentally for a school year unlike any other.

1. The test comes fi rst, the lesson later

Jill Huynh

At Beech Acres Parenting Center, parents get support to understand that the meaning of diffi culties doesn’t become clear until they are over. “We’re talking a lot to parents about managing their own stress fi rst because stress is contagious, which is a funny thing to say in the middle of a pandemic,” said Jill Huynh, a center social worker who also is vice president of the center’s Parent Connext program and of new business development. The arrival of the new school year gives parents a chance to take what worked then and apply those techniques, she said. Pediatric psychologist Katherine Junger at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, said parents of older children and teenagers can acknowledge the loss of typical school-year milestones and remind them that life holds more notable moments.

Get out of the cycle of reacting, Junger said, even though the fl uid situation can be overwhelming. “Anxiety thrives in uncertainty,” she said. “Brains are problem-solving machines, and you can imagine all kinds of things unfolding. Generally speaking, that is not a super-helpful exercise.” The new school year can be “a really good opportunity to build emotional resilience, to build fl exibility, to change our mindset in thinking about the future.”

2. It’s OK that you don’t know “Kids are really looking to us to understand how to navigate this really diffi cult time,” Junger said. “Parents can be modeling that for your kids, even saying out loud, ‘This is kind of a tricky situation, I don’t know what I’m going to do, I’m going to learn more and then I’ll make a decision.’ “That models for them how to get through this,” Junger said. “It normalizes that everybody has emotions.”

social worker at Beech Acres Parenting Center

The Durban family of Price Hill: Matt, Elliott, 11; Oliver, 6; Wesley, 10, and Toni. Parenting through the pandemic, Toni said, often left her in tears. She sought online coursework to help her and Matt guide their sons into the new school year. PROVIDED

Huynh

Junger

Huynh said parents can provide one bright light. “The pandemic is scary,” she said, “and the most important thing a parent can do is reassure a child that the child is safe, loved and cared for. A parent needs to say that very consistently in this very uncertain world.”

3. Only circles are perfect Durbin of Price Hill said the tough year with her sons leaves her worried that “I’m setting them up for failure, even

though I know deep in my heart that it’s not true.” The pursuit of parental perfection is a heavy burden in the best of times, and the pandemic only spread a sense of parental failure. “There is this worry that they’re going to break their kids, they’ll end up in jail and not get an education,” Huynh said. “There’s no research out there that shows one decision a parent makes is going to cause all that to happen.” “Take a deep breath,” said Junger at Cincinnati Children’s. “We are really giving families permission and the confi dence to make the decisions that are best for their families. We have to be nuanced and encouraging families to take a step back and assess what the needs of their families are.”

4. Be wary of knee jerks

5. Ask for help Beech Acres off ers complimentary coaching, Huynh said, and 50 families have already taken advantage of the support. To get the coaching, parents can send email through Beech Acres’ website, and a specialist will follow up. Junger recommended starting a meditation practice or other passage to make relaxation a part of the day and help a parent be “a better body detective” to monitor stress. The Durban boys are Elliott, 11, Wesley, 10, and Oliver, 6. For guidance in raising her sons, Toni Durbin prays. She also signed up for an online course through Varsity Tutors. And she started taking 3mile walks every day, her music blasting in her ears. Then her husband took up walking with her. And sometimes, the boys come along. “It’s been great,” she said.

Rise in violence proves police needed more than ever Your Turn Betsy Sundermann Guest columnist

Over the past few months, there has been a national conversation about law enforcement. The notion of “defunding the police” has gained momentum in some pockets around the country. An organization called People’s Safety Reimagined has brought that debate to the city of Cincinnati in the form of a proposed charter amendment. They were able to collect about 7,000 signatures to put their proposal on the ballot in November. Despite this eff ort, they failed to get the required number of valid signatures for the 2020 election. I have been, and remain, prepared to fi ght against the notion of defunding the Cincinnati Police Department. I also believe that supporting law enforcement and advocating for safe and secure neighborhoods is not a partisan issue. Defunding the Cincinnati police

Police in Downtown Cincinnati. SAM GREENE/THE ENQUIRER

would not lower crime rates, but would result in an increase in crime and violence in many of our Cincinnati neighborhoods. It is critical that police have the tools to be proactive in their jobs, cutting off crime before it can happen. By defunding the police, it would be virtually impossible for the police to do this important work. They would instead operate more like fi refi ghters, only able to re-

spond when the house is afl ame. Residents of the city would be forced to fend for themselves, and the deterrent for criminals to break the law would dramatically decrease if police are pulled out of neighborhoods. If this charter amendment is proposed again in the future and becomes law, Cincinnati will lose over $17 million in grants for CPD. Policing as we know it will be obliterated. Social workers and mental health professionals will be responding to calls that should be handled by trained law enforcement offi cers. This will put those, and the general public, at risk. There is always room for reform, and that’s something the Cincinnati Police Department has taken very seriously, becoming a role model for other departments around the nation. Some of the proposed changes identifi ed by those wanting to defund the police are already policy, including demilitarization, deescalation training, banning chokeholds, etc. The men and women in uniform in Cincinnati get up every day ready to sacrifi ce everything for our safety. They

held the line against the protests that turned into riots, looting, and destruction earlier this summer. At a time when we need them most, this proposal sends the opposite message. The violence in our city in 2020 has been overwhelming. We are on pace to have over 100 homicides this year, which would make it the most devastating and violent year in Cincinnati’s history. In one recent weekend, we saw over 18 people shot and four killed in a single night. That’s something you see in other cities, but it’s something we should never have in Cincinnati. This is proof that we need the police now, more than ever, protecting our neighborhoods. Though People’s Safety Reimagined failed to get their proposal on the ballot this year, we will be ready to support our police offi cers and advocate for safe communities if they attempt to get their radical proposals on the ballot in 2021. Cincinnati Councilwoman Betsy Sundermann lives in East Price Hill and is a Hamilton County probate court magistrate.

Lawsuit: LaRosa’s systematically underpays drivers Kevin Grasha Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

LaRosa’s franchises are facing multiple lawsuits fi led on behalf of delivery drivers who allege they systematically are not being paid enough for deliveryrelated expenses. Three separate lawsuits, all fi led this year in federal court in Cincinnati, involve 27 LaRosa’s locations. The cases are seeking class-action status. Nearly identical lawsuits have also been fi led against Domino’s, Papa John’s and Jimmy John’s Gourmet Sandwiches, including in other states. Recently, a case involving more than 900 drivers for Domino’s franchises in

Southwest Ohio settled for just over $1 million. Last year, in another local case, 172 Domino’s drivers settled for $1.42 million. The law fi rm representing the drivers, Biller and Kimble in Kenwood, is “well-versed in pizza delivery driver litigation,” according to documents fi led in one of the settlements The most recent lawsuit involving LaRosa’s franchises was fi led Aug. 21 by a driver who worked at the Pleasant Ridge location. It names Michael LaRosa, one of founder Buddy LaRosa’s children, who heads an entity that owns 12 stores. The other two lawsuits involve diff erent franchises that own 15 other

stores. Documents say Michael LaRosa owns and/or operates, in whole or in part, a number of other entities that make up part of the LaRosa’s operation. The number of stores could increase as the case proceeds. The lawsuit naming Michael LaRosa alleges drivers are not adequately reimbursed for their expenses, and, therefore, do not earn the legally mandated minimum wage for hours worked. A LaRosa’s spokesperson said they don’t comment on legal matters. According to the lawsuit, drivers are paid about 6% of each order they deliver. But reimbursement payments, the lawsuit says, are not related to the actu-

al expenses the drivers incur using their vehicles. The lawsuit says delivery drivers should be paid the IRS standard business mileage rate, now 57.5 cents per mile. LaRosa’s reimbursement policy, however, results in drivers receiving an average of 25 cents to 35 cents per mile. The drivers are owed the diff erence between what they actually received and the IRS rate, plus additional damages, the lawsuit says. “These guys drive thousands of miles, and they’re minimum-wage workers,” said Phil Krzeski, an attorney representing the drivers. “These cases make real monetary diff erence for a lot of people.”

COLUMBUS - So you want to pick the next president of the United States of America? Or you want to pick the next state lawmaker, county prosecutor or sheriff ? The general election is Nov. 3, but there are a few steps you must take before that date to ensure your vote counts.

Register to vote The fi rst step is registering to vote. The deadline to register to vote is Oct. 5. County boards of elections will be open until 9 p.m. that day to accept registrations. More than 7.8 million Ohioans are registered to vote already. You can check to see if you are registered to vote at voterlookup.ohiosos.gov . Make sure you use your legal name. For example, search for Jessica Balmert instead of Jessie. If you aren’t registered to vote, if you have changed your name or if you are registered under an old address, you can register online at voteohio.gov. To register online, you need an Ohio driver’s license or Ohio identifi cation card number. If you don’t have either number, don’t worry. You can still register to vote, but you will need to fi ll out a paper form and send it to your county board of elections.

Who can vote in Ohio? Here are the criteria for voting in Ohio: h You are a citizen of the United States. h You will be at least 18 years old on or before the day of the general election. h You will be a resident of Ohio for at least 30 days immediately before the election. h You are not incarcerated (in jail or in prison) for a felony conviction. h You have not been declared incompetent for voting purposes by a probate court. h You have not been permanently disenfranchised for violations of election laws.

What happens if you don’t register to vote by Oct. 5? If you are not registered to vote, your vote will not count. If you are registered under a diff erent address, you will be asked to cast a provisional ballot. A provisional ballot is one that doesn’t count until election offi cials complete some additional verifi cation.

Request an absentee ballot So you’ve registered to vote, what’s next? There are two ways to vote in Ohio: in person or via the mail. In-per-

son voting can be done early (as soon as Oct. 6) or on Election Day: Nov. 3. Anyone who votes early in Ohio – whether via the mail or in-person – casts an absentee ballot. The term “absentee” simply means you will be “absent” from your polling location on Election Day. If you want to vote via the mail, you must request an absentee ballot. You cannot do this online. You must fi ll out a paper application. How do you get that form? There are several options: h You can fi ll out an application for an absentee ballot online, print it out and send it to your county board of elections. En español: solicitud de papeleta de voto en ausencia. h Around Labor Day, the Ohio secretary of state’s offi ce – which oversees elections in the state – will send all registered voters an application in the mail. You can fi ll that out and send it to your county board of elections. h You can call your county board of elections and they will send you an application to fi ll out and return. h Some get-out-the-vote groups will send applications in the mail. Some even fi ll out basic information, such as your name and address. As long as the form matches the state’s application, you can use it. Again, you must return the completed form to the county board of elections.

When can I request an absentee ballot? Now. There’s no need to wait. Your application must arrive at the county board of election by noon on Oct. 31 to receive an early ballot. But you shouldn’t wait until the last minute. More people will likely vote via the mail this year because of the novel coronavirus, so it’s best to send that application in early.

Do I need to pay for postage? Yes. That could change but currently, you must pay for that stamp.

Where do I mail my application?

h Hamilton County Board of Elections 4700 Smith Road Cincinnati, OH 45212 h Butler County Board of Elections 1802 Princeton Road, Suite 600 Hamilton, OH 45011 h Clermont County Board of Elections 76 S. Riverside Drive Batavia, OH 45103 h Warren County Board of Elections 520 Justice Drive Lebanon, OH 45036 Not from Southwest Ohio? You can look up your county board of elections here.

Cast your absentee ballot When will I receive my absentee ballot? Local boards of elections will mail out absentee ballots to those who have requested one starting Oct. 6.

I fi lled out my absentee ballot. When is the deadline to mail it in? Your absentee ballot – the form you fi ll out with your pick for candidates – must be postmarked to your county board of elections by Nov. 2. Any ballot received after Nov. 13 will not be counted, even if it was postmarked by Nov. 2. Again, it’s best not to wait until the last minute.

I don’t want to mail in my absentee ballot. Do I have another option? You can drop off your absentee ballot at your county board of elections through 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 3 – either in person or using the dropbox. You cannot drop off your absentee ballot at your polling location. If you requested an absentee ballot and choose to vote in person on Election Day instead, you will fi ll out a provisional ballot. A provisional ballot is one that doesn’t count until election offi cials complete some additional verifi cation. In this case, they would check to make sure you didn’t cast two ballots: the absentee and the provisional.

Can I track the status of my absentee ballot? Each board of elections off ers ways to track your absentee ballot. Check the sites below: h Hamilton County: https://vote hamiltoncountyohio.gov/votingoptions/mail h Butler County: https://elections. bcohio.gov/how_do_i_vote_by_mail/ track_your_ballot.php h Clermont County: https://cler mont.oh-vote.org/VoterView/AbsenteeBallotSearch.do h Warren County: https://lookup.

If you want to vote in person There are two ways to vote in person. One is early voting. The other is on Election Day.

What’s the schedule for early voting? Ohioans can vote at their county board of elections, starting Oct. 6. Here are the hours and dates: h 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Oct. 6-Oct. 9; Oct. 12-16 h 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Oct. 19-23 h 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Oct. 24 h 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Oct. 25 h 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Oct. 26-30 h 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Oct. 31 h 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Nov. 1 h 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Nov. 2

What are the hours for Election Day? Polls will be open from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 3.

Where do I vote? You can check your polling location online or by calling your county board of elections. It’s possible that locations could change because of COVID-19 concerns, so it never hurts to double-check.

Do I need to wear a mask to vote? Please wear a mask or face covering to vote for the protection of the poll workers. If you do not have a mask, you will be off ered one at your polling location. If you refuse to wear a mask, you will be asked to vote curbside. “No one will be denied their right to vote,” Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose said in a statement.

Can I vote curbside? Curbside voting is an option for those who are physically unable to enter a polling location – either during early voting or on Election Day. State election offi cials recommend specifi c parking and signage that indicates where you can vote. It’s helpful to bring another person who can inform election offi cials inside that you wish to vote outside. You will be asked to wear a mask and use hand sanitizer.

What safety precautions can I expect at the polls? Poll workers are required to wear masks and wash their hands regularly. Voting machines and e-pollbooks will be cleaned. You can vote curbside if you would prefer to not enter the building.

After Democrats spurned Jim Neil, the sheriff endorses Republican Cincinnati Enquirer

The Democratic Party abandoned Jim Neil in the primary. Now the outgoing Hamilton County sheriff is turning his back on the Democrats. Neil on Aug. 24 offi cially endorsed Republican and fellow West Sider Bruce Hoff bauer in the sheriff ’s race, potentially boosting the former Cincinnati police lieutenant’s campaign ahead of what’s expected to be a tough election for the Hamilton County GOP. Hoff bauer faces progressive Democrat Charmaine McGuff ey, who defeated her former boss in the April primary after receiving the Democratic endorsement. “It’s not often you see a Democrat endorse a Republican, but this is one of those rare moments when people from both political parties should come together to support the clearly superior candidate,” Neil said. “That person is Bruce Hoff bauer. I ask all Democrats, my West Side friends and my East Side friends, to join me in supporting Bruce with your vote on November 3rd.” Neil had lost his party’s endorsement, partly because he attended a Trump rally in 2016. Neil apologized a

day after attending the rally, but the party’s left wing wasn’t willing to forgive him. McGuff ey, a former major in the sheriff ’s department under Neil, crushed her former boss by nearly 40 points in the primary. Neil’s support for Hoff bauer had been expected since the two-term sheriff lost his primary. “This comes as no surprise,” said Mary Carol Melton, McGuff ey’s campaign manager. “Jim Neil lost to Charmaine McGuff ey by (40) points in the primary.

He was stripped of his Democratic Party endorsement. He spends his free time at Trump rallies. Voters in Hamilton County have made it very clear they don’t trust Jim Neil to run the Sheriff ’s offi ce. In November, they’ll make it clear they don’t trust Bruce Hoff bauer, either. We wish Jim Neil the best in retirement.” Neil, who will leave offi ce at the end of the year, was popular among voters in the 2012 and 2016 general elections. As a folksy, West Side moderate, he had crossover appeal with voters. Four years ago, Neil outperformed Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump and then-Commissioner Todd Portune. In fact, only Democrat Coroner Dr. Lakshmi Kode Sammarco had more total votes than Neil among all countywide candidates. Will Neil’s general election popularity translate to helping Hoff bauer? It could depend on how well Hoff bauer gets the word out about Neil’s support in the fi nal two months of the campaign. Hamilton County Republicans face major headwinds with Trump at the top of the ticket. It’s the type of political climate in which an endorsement from a moderate Democrat could help a GOP candidate.

But if Democratic voters stick to their sample ballot like they did in the primary, Neil’s endorsement may not matter. McGuff ey’s big margin of victory surprised most local political watchers, given Neil’s previous popularity among voters. The primary result not only showed the power of the Democratic endorsement, but also refl ected voters’ disdain for Trump. The Hoff bauer endorsement is the latest chapter in an ongoing rift between Neil and McGuff ey, also a West Side native. Neil and McGuff ey came up together in the sheriff ’s department. In 2013, Neil promoted McGuff ey and put her in charge of the jail. But McGuff ey was demoted in 2017 after several complaints that she had created a hostile work environment for other employees. She refused to work a lower-paying civilian job and was fi red. McGuff ey fi led a federal lawsuit claiming some in the sheriff ’s department didn’t like that she is an openly gay woman. The lawsuit is pending. Editor’s note: Information included refl ects this article’s original publication date – Aug. 24.

Spending more time in the kitchen these days? Try ‘no recipe’ cooking Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist

It’s funny how things work out. Like many of you, during this pandemic, I’m not shopping as much as I usually do. So the testing of recipes has slowed down. By the same token, some of the ones you’ve requested are recipes shared previously. It all works out, yes? Before I get into recipes today, I wanted to share some thoughts about the apron poem I published

recently. Jeri R. collects aprons from around the world. “But the special ones to me are those my maternal grandmother crocheted,” she said. How about you? What’s your apron story? Also, I can’t share Katie Pettit’s hot milk cake yet. I had a couple questions after going over the recipe and I’m waiting on her to answer. I promise, though, it will be forthcoming. Now with all this cooking you’ve been doing, maybe you’re up to trying “no recipe” cooking. These easy and delish “no recipe” roasted chicken recipes and timely tips for preserving basil will get you started.

Too much basil? Freeze it! Basil paste:

“No recipe” roasted chicken with summer vegetables and herbs.

Make a paste of 2 cups basil leaves and a tiny bit of olive oil.

Freeze as a base for pesto, or to add to soups and stews.

Layer basil with Parmesan or Romano: Make layers of basil and shredded cheese, ending with cheese. Basil will turn lighter green and both will flavor each other. Freeze

‘No recipe’ roasted chicken with summer vegetables and herbs Basil and cheese layered for freezer. and use in pastas, butters, pizza, breads, etc.

Libby Frank’s no recipe roasted chicken fi ngers wrapped in bacon Libby is neighbor to son Shane and daughter in law, Courtney. Recently granddaughter Eva had “the best bacon wrapped chicken” at Libby’s. I asked Libby for the recipe. She chuckled and said “no recipe, just cut up chicken breasts into fi ngers, sprinkle with salt and pepper, wrap in bacon and brush with barbecue sauce. Roast at 375 until cooked through. It’s a favorite with my kids.” Well, there you go – another no recipe dish perfect for a busy day.

Right now, I’m harvesting tomatoes, onions and potatoes. Seasonal veggies make this a satisfying and easy supper. Use other chicken pieces, too. Just know white meat cooks faster than dark.

Potatoes, peeled and cut into nice chunks (not too large or they won’t be done soon enough) 1 big onion, quartered Instructions

Ingredients

Preheat oven to 450.

Scatter vegetables on bottom of pan.

Chicken thighs with skin and bone – as many as you like and will fi t in the pan

Drizzle with olive oil, a bit of lemon juice, salt and pepper. Strip leaves from a couple sprigs of oregano and sprinkle all over. Or do the same with dried oregano, but go easy as it’s stronger.

SPORTS La Salle defense loaded with DI college talent Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

MONFORT HEIGHTS - It could be said that the 2020 La Salle High School football team is an embarrassment of riches returning a roster full of players that held the Ohio Division II state championship trophy high in Canton last December. However, neither La Salle’s supporters nor their players are the slightest bit embarrassed and the only thing the Lancers are truly rich in is talent, much of it earned through hard work, dedication and perspiration. The team that throttled former La Salle coach Nate Moore’s Massillon Washington squad 34-17 is back with the same edge and a new mission: protect and repeat. “We’re still doing the same things we did last year, playing guys both ways,” La Salle head coach Pat McLaughlin said. “Even though it’s a shortened season, it’s a longer playoff . We have a lot of guys that have played a lot of games. We’ve also got a lot of guys that are very smart and they understand we have to do what we did last year in order to have success.” That equation involves putting the time and work in that leads to championships. Championships lead to phone calls and visits from college coaches. It also leads to McLaughlin’s phone perpetually buzzing with a text, voice mail or call. Helping the Lancers coaching staff , particularly on defense, is the return of four secondary players who have already committed to Division I institutions. You may call them Four Horsemen, the Quad Squad or Green Township’s No-Fly Zone, but most teams have called them a problem. Ohio State commit Jaylen Johnson is large enough to play linebacker at 6foot-3 and 210 pounds but will likely be a Buckeye safety once he’s fi nished swarming to the ball for the Lancers. The three-star (according to 247sports.com) is bullish on adding a trophy to the La Salle case. “Best team in Ohio,” Johnson said. “We just have to show it again this year. Same attitude, same demeanor.” Johnson has kept in contact with Ohio State players and coaches over the Big Ten’s decision not to play this fall over new coronavirus concerns. He’s hearing the talk of spring ball and may angle to graduate early if he can to get involved with Coach Ryan Day’s program early. For now, he was looking forward to the season opener at Elder. Visit Cincinnati.com for possible results. The Panthers were also in Canton last year, fi nishing as Division I runners-up.

La Salle's Jaymar Hargrove-Mundy catches a pass, on Aug. 6. TONY TRIBBLE FOR THE ENQUIRER

“Let’s have a party at The Pit!” Johnson said. Confi dence oozes from all four Lancers lurking in the defensive secondary. Johnson believes it’s the best in the nation with their speed, size and resumes. “The best option is to run and get hit,” he said. Cincinnati Bearcat commit Iesa Jarmon has the same thought process for those hoping to run multiple successful pass routes on La Salle. When asked who may complete passes on them, the answer is identical. “Nobody, nobody, nobody,” Jarmon said. “We can’t let anybody. No, no, no.

Our team is super-solid. We’re returning a lot of our key players from last year We’re going to repeat again and win another state championship.” As cocky as Johnson and Jarmon may sound, all agree that Miami RedHawks commit Jaymor Mundy is the secondary swagger-king. “Dripped out” is how his teammates describe him. Mundy tied for the Greater Catholic League-South lead in interceptions last year with six and also casts doubt on opposing pass completions. “I don’t think no one honestly,” Mundy said on who may test them. “Coming up to this season, with all of this going

on, I don’t think no one’s going to be able to complete a pass.” Mundy feels he toughened his game up last season and is looking forward to getting to Oxford to begin training for his college career as soon as he’s done at La Salle. As for this fall, he’s also predicting “back-to-back” championships. Devonta Smith is a unique Lancer who is part of the secondary, but also a receiving threat. He’s also unique in that he’s a rare fl ip from Ohio State to the SEC and AlaSee LA SALLE, Page 2B

Which GCL-South football team makes tourney run? Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Two teams from the Greater Catholic League-South played for Ohio state championships last December in Canton with La Salle High School winning a Division II state title and Elder fi nishing as Division I state runner-up. La Salle returns many from the 2019 Lancer team that rolled deep in Canton, while Elder will need some young players to step up and fi ll big shoes. The GCL-South continues to be a regular visitor to state fi nals with Moeller winning the Division I tile in 2012 and 2013, La Salle taking Division II in 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2019, St. Xavier winning DI in 2016 and Elder fi nishing as last year’s runner-up. Here’s how the fearsome four stack up for 2020.

Elder The Panthers of Doug Ramsey took some major hits on the roster due to

graduation with the GCL-South’s top rusher and No. 2 passer Matthew Luebbe gone as well as tight end Joe Royer and off ensive lineman Jakob James to Ohio State and lineman Luke Kandra to Louisville. Top tackler Colton Sandhas is also gone. But, they tend to replenish in Price Hill with many of the youngsters growing up dreaming of playing in The Pit. Many in last year’s shadows will now have the opportunity to shine, including junior Drew Ramsey who followed Elder’s recent tradition of being in the offense as a receiver/back while waiting for his turn at quarterback. The Panthers remaining have much to prove after falling short in the DI fi nal last December after entering the fourth quarter with a 14-7 lead on Pickerington Central. “People are going to doubt you now because you think about the guys we lost,” Ramsey said. “Two guys going to Ohio State, a guy going to Louisville, a quarterback that threw for 4,000, rushed for 2,000, we lost a lot of talent.

That’s what happens in sports. Some of these guys have to assume those roles and play at a high level.” Players to watch: Drew Ramsey was 3-for-5 passing last season, but two of those went for touchdowns. Back at his natural position, those numbers should improve. As a utility back as a sophomore, Ramsey ran for 319 yards and tour touchdowns and caught 61 passes for 633 yards and fi ve scores. One of his targets could be tight end David Larkins who backed up Joe Royer last season. Larkins has committed to play at Appalachian State. “Why not us?” Larkins said. “Just because we lost so many people, so many high-rated guys, why can’t we make a run for state again?” On the line Drew Beckenhaupt will lead the way. The 6-foot-4, 290-pounder has committed to the Toledo Rockets. See GCL, Page 2B

Wyoming head coach takes assistant job at NDA James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Notre Dame has hired two assistant coaches to its girls basketball program as well as a new cheerleading coach. Joining the basketball program are Vanessa Laug and Dan Rasp. Laug was the head coach at Wyoming High School in the previous four seasons. Before that, she was a former assistant coach at Notre Dame as well as Holy Cross, Oak Hills and Walnut Hills. The Oak

Hills High School graduate played college basketball at Division I Coastal Carolina University. Rasp will assist each level at NDA while also assuming operational and administrative responsibilities. He was an assistant sports information director at Northern Kentucky University from 2008-15 and has coached AAU and middle school basketball for the past fi ve years. Notre Dame, head coached by Kes Murphy, was 25-7 last season, winning

the 35th District and fi nishing as Ninth Region runner-up. The Pandas return all fi ve starters plus key reserves. Kristen Brewer has been named the new varsity cheerleading coach. She was on the University of Cincinnati Dance Team, helping the team win a national championship. She was a Bengals cheerleader for eight years, representing them at the Pro Bowl. She was the Junior Bengal head coach for fi ve years and a coach at Indian Hill High School for nine years.

La Salle Lancers coach Pat McLaughlin is guarded about the season ahead, but a look at a roster full of college talent returning should have La Salle fans feeling good about their 2020 chances. La Salle returns a starting quarterback in Zach Branam who threw for 1,676 yards and 21 scores and ran for 1,394 with 14 touchdowns. 166 of those yards came in La Salle’s 34-17 DII title win over Massillon Washington last December. For his senior year, Branam returns a starting running back and receiver with Division I college off ers and will have a defense with an all-DI secondary helping get the ball back. “I’m defi nitely feeling confi dent in our team,” Branam said. “We’ve got a lot of guys coming back. We only had 14 seniors, even though those seniors were a big part of our team. We’re defi nitely confi dent in all of our people coming back. Once we get to work this year, we’ll defi nitely get better than we were last year. I have a little chip on my shoulder not getting recruited as much as I’d want to. It just makes me work even harder to prove everyone wrong. They’ll see that this year.” Players to watch: In addition to senior Branam, La Salle’s star-studded secondary features Ohio State-bound Jaylen Johnson (61 tackles), Alabama commit Devonta Smith (38 tackles, three interceptions plus 11 catches for 271 yards and fi ve scores at receiver), Cincinnati Bearcat commit Iesa Jarmon (31 tackles, two fumble recoveries, two INTs) and Miami RedHawks commit Jaymar Mundy (50 tackles and a league-high six interceptions). Junior Gi’Bran Payne has seen his recruiting blow up after running for 790 yards and nine scores and recording 41 tackles, four sacks, three forced fumbles and a pair of interceptions at linebacker. Among some of four-star Payne’s off ers are Alabama, Florida, Michigan, Notre Dame, Penn

State, Iowa and UC.

Moeller Moeller has their fourth coach in four seasons as Mark Elder comes from the college ranks of Eastern Kentucky to try to amp the Crusaders up from a 2-8 2019 campaign. The Crusaders appear to have picked up the pace some and will try senior playmaker T.J. Rotello at quarterback. Moeller is just two seasons removed from winning the GCL-South two years ago when Rotello was a sophomore running back. However, that’s been their only winning season out of the last fi ve. “We’re just focusing on getting better,” Elder said. “I’m not really worried about what happened last year or years in the past. Those things don’t really have a major impact on the season we’re going to have this year. What does have a major impact on the season we’re going to to have is the work ethic, the commitment level of the guys and coming on a consistent basis and working really hard.” Players to watch: Hoping to lead the Moeller ground game is off ensive lineman Landon Fickell who has committed to play for his father Luke at the University of Cincinnati. Nate Pabst, a 6foot-6, 250-pound defensive lineman has committed to Bowling Green, while junior tight end Josh Kattus, the son of former Bengal and Michigan player Eric

bama. Smith said the Crimson Tide will probably use him at safety. He had 38 tackles and three interceptions last season in addition to 11 catches for 271 yards with fi ve of those being touchdowns on off ense. Defensively, Smith fi gures to be waving his arms in the incomplete-mode on a frequent basis. “I think everyone could (complete a pass) but I feel like with the guys we’ve got back there, no one,” Smith said. “Like no one. I don’t think so. We’re loaded!” Loaded is an understatement when

Kattus, has an off er from his father’s alma mater. Brothers Deuce and Aiden Shaw will be defensive leaders and brothers Bryan and Brandon White plus Rotello will be threats with the football in their hands.

Steve Specht lost the GCL-South’s top passer as Matthew Rueve has moved on to Boston College after throwing for 3,126 yards and 28 scores in new off ensive coordinator Andrew Coverdale’s passing game. But, the “long blue line” continues and the Bombers do have Penn State commit Liam Cliff ord returning for his senior season after catching 77 balls for 1,180 yards and 17 scores. From the looks of last week’s scrimmage vs. Lakota West, St. Xavier again has an able passer as Brogan McCaughey was able to chuck a couple scoring passes against Lakota West. The Bombers were 9-3 last season, falling short in a second-round playoff

game to eventual DI state runner-up Elder. Early indications are the Bombers will be in the hunt again. “Liam Cliff ord is a special talent and he’s done a great job in a leadership role,” Specht said. “Liam’s just one of many seniors that are going to make an impact again this year. We have a great nucleus to build around. Now the young guys need to measure up what the expectation is here. We’ll get after them and we’ll fi nd 11 guys to put on the fi eld. I like this group of kids.” Players to watch: Cliff ord is multitalented and may even get an occasional look at safety if situations warrant according to Specht. He spent the spring/ summer catching passes from his brother, Penn State starting quarterback Sean Cliff ord. Junior Luke Vrsansky is the top returning rusher.

you factor in junior running back/linebacker Gi’Bran Payne who has been offered by a “who’s who” of schools including Alabama, Florida, Michigan, Notre Dame, Penn State, Iowa and UC. Payne ran for 790 yards and nine scores, caught eight passes for 141 yards and three touchdowns, had 41 tackles, four sacks, three forced fumbles and a pair of picks as a sophomore. 247sports.com lists him as a four-star recruit. “We’re just taking it one day at a time practicing hard every day,” Payne said. “We’re going to go back and do it again.” Factor in a senior starting quarterback Zach Branam who ran for 1,676 yards and 21 touchdowns and passed for 1,394 and 14 more.

Men’s Virility Restored in Clinical Trial; 275% More Blood Flow in 5 Minutes A newly improved version of America’s best-selling male performance enhancer gives 70-year-old men the ability and stamina they enjoyed in their 30’s. America’s best-selling sexual performance enhancer just got a lot better.

The donated helmets are meant to encourage students to practice safety as they bicycle in the parks and around their community. PROVIDED

Great Parks donated 88 bicycle helmets to children. PROVIDED

Nitric oxide won the Nobel Prize in 1998. It’s why “the little blue pill” works. More than 200,000 studies confirm it’s the key to superior sexual performance.

Great Parks donates 88 bicycle helmets to children Great Parks of Hamilton County has donated 88 bicycle helmets to children at the Cincinnati Recreation Commission’s Clifton and Dunham Recreation Centers, encouraging them to practice safety as they bicycle in the parks and around their community. “We’ve seen that bicycling is very popular throughout the parks because it’s great outdoor recreation with safe social distancing,” said Great Parks Ranger Captain Dale Steele. “Bike safety is important, so we’re thrilled to provide bicycle helmets to dozens of Hamilton County children once again.” Great Parks is providing the helmets in collaboration with the 10th annual “Put a Lid on It” bike helmet safety campaign from the Ohio Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics (Ohio AAP) and the Ohio Department of Transportation. This campaign has allowed Great Parks to give 200 bicycle helmets to children over the last three years. According to the Ohio AAP, up to 75 percent of bike-related fatalities would be prevented with a helmet. Furthermore, wearing a helmet can reduce the risk of head injury by 85 percent. Great Parks worked closely with staff at the Cincinnati Recreation Commission (CRC) Clifton and Dunham Recreation Centers to measure children for correct sizes and distribute helmets for them to take home, all while observing social distancing guidelines. The parks have more than 20 miles of bike trails, with access to the regional 78-mile Little Miami Scenic Trail and the 8-mile mountain bike trail in Mitchell Memorial Forest. Bikes are available for rent at Miami Whitewater Forest, Sharon Woods and Winton Woods. For more information about the “Put a Lid on It” campaign, visit http:// ohioaap.org/PutALidOnIt.

currently being renovated. Sponsored by the German-American Citizens League, the German-style log house opened in 2000. The log house is multi-level with a central chimney and the logs are large and squared off , rather than small and round. It also has heavy oak doors and a fi eldstone foundation. It originally served as the home of the Feist family in Delhi, and was moved to its present location. Currently closed, plans call for the renovation to be completed by year’s end, with the work being done by Architectural Reclamation, a company specializing in historic structures. The museum sponsors Maifest and St. Nicholas Day celebrations, as well as lecture programs on German heritage. It contains many unique items, including immigrant trunks, wooden shoes, and a Pennsylvania German rifl e. The museum also has a small library of books on German genealogy for those interested in tracing their family history.

Cincinnati Children’s employees spread mulch outside South Avondale Elementary. PROVIDED PHOTOS

Volunteers help organize the “groom room,” which provides clothes, personal supplies and other necessities for the nearly 400 South Avondale students.

Cincinnati Children’s & Reds Community Fund host volunteer day On Aug. 6, more than 50 employees from Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center and the Reds Community Fund volunteered at South Avondale Elementary, helping the school prepare for the return of students next month. Morning and afternoon shifts were worked on the Avondale school campus, while volunteers followed a comprehensive set of health and safety guidelines. Inside the school, upgrades were made to the food pantry and “groom room,” which provides clothes, supplies, changing rooms and other necessities for the nearly 400 students. Exterior work included painting, mulching and installing picnic benches for an outdoor classroom. “Seeing all the Cincinnati Children’s and Reds employees volunteering today sends a message that we work together in order to uplift one another,” said Michael Allison, principal of South Avondale Elementary. Joining the volunteers and Allison were Cincinnati Children’s president and CEO Michael Fisher and Reds president and COO Phil Castellini. “What this means to us is just another way that we get to connect with the children of our Avondale community and help support them and their families,” said Fisher. “And the partnership with

the Reds has been very special, and it’s a chance for our employees to give back outside the walls of the medical center.” “The collaborative eff ort that comes in these big makeover projects takes our work in the community to the next level with the help of partners like Cincinnati Children’s, P&G and the Zoo,” said Castellini. “We feel proud to be working with these great organizations and hopefully more to come [for Avondale] in 2021, and so glad to be here and doing what we can today.” Additional volunteers assembled backpacks with school supplies and P&G personal care products, which will be made available to students and families from both South Avondale Elementary

as well as nearby Rockdale Academy. Bobby Rodriguez, Cincinnati Children’s vice president of diversity, inclusion and community relations, addressed the volunteers in the afternoon session and worked on the outdoor crew. “It’s an honor for the Cincinnati Children’s family to be here connecting with our community,” said Rodriguez. “This is my fi rst event, and I am very proud that we are out helping today and following all the safety policies and regulations. It’s been a real pleasure to be part of this day with the Cincinnati Reds.” The projects were scheduled to be a part of the 2020 Community Makeover in Avondale that was to feature over 500 volunteers from P&G, the Reds Commu-

nity Fund, Cincinnati Children’s and the Cincinnati Zoo, along with other community partners. Despite having to postpone the majority of the makeover to 2021 due to COVID-19, Cincinnati Children’s and the Reds Community Fund identifi ed immediate needs at South Avondale Elementary for this year. The volunteer projects o included donations from P&G, the Duke Energy Foundation and the Cincinnati Zoo. OneSource Center for Nonprofi t Excellence supported the project through its Shoppers Club resources, supplying fi le cabinets and shelving utilized in the interior renovation. The Reds Community Fund and P&G have partnered for the Community Makeover since 2010. Cincinnati Zoo and Cincinnati Children’s joined the partnership in 2013 for the fi rst Avondale project that included Gabriel’s Place, Hirsch Recreation Center and Hirsch ballfi elds.
