their daily fix from Hamilton County, come back to Clermont County and sell what they have left, and on the other hand, there are people from other counties who bring larger quantities in and sell it to users in the county to make a profit. “It’s addictive, so once someone tries it, they come back for more,” Ventre said. “It ensures the market.” Local police units are also dealing with the effects of heroin use in the county.

“We’ve had a problem for the last couple of years,” Union Township Police Chief Terry Zinser said. “We still have a problem.” Chief Zinser said they have had calls for overdoses and deaths because of overdoses. Zinser agreed much of the heroin supply is coming from Cincinnati and said it seems like the drug is becoming more popular. See Heroin, Page A3

She said hunger was more obvious on Mondays, when children had spent the weekend at home and didn’t have the opportunity to receive lunch at school. “They’re lethargic and sleepy, they don’t do well on tests,” Minarchek said about the effects. “If they’re hungry they’re not doing

A trial date has been set for Jack Richards, the 21year-old Amelia man who faces charges after he struck and killed trustee-elect Jim Bushman Nov. 21, 2011. The primary jury trial is set to begin at 9 a.m. March 30 in front of visiting judge Timothy Hogan. Richards faces charges for aggravated vehicular homicide and vehicular assault. “If there aren’t new charges I’d imagine we’ll start on that day,” Clermont County Assistant Prosecutor Woody Breyer said. Breyer said while they will be prepared to present the case then, they are still waiting to receive documents from the laboratories regarding the use of drugs or alcohol. “We really want to get that information back because that would change the nature of some of the penalties,” Breyer said. He said currently, the aggravated homicide charges are based on the speed at which Richards was driving. The accident occurred Nov. 21 at approximately 12:25 p.m. on state Route 132 near Judd Road in Batavia Township. Richards was driving a

Flashbacks

“There is an increase in the amount of heroin overdoses,” Douglas Ventre, commander of the Clermont County Narcotics Unit, said. “I don’t know if that is attributed to a higher grade of heroin, a purer form, or people trying to get more and use more.” Ventre said he has seen

heroin use and overdoses across the spectrum, from 17-year-olds to 50-yearolds. “I’ve encountered people who have used it in front of their kids,” he said. “They buy it, and as soon as they get it, they inject it. People ruin their whole lives for it.” Ventre said heroin usage and dealing occurs throughout Clermont County. He said on one hand there are the users who purchase

Each Friday at Bick Primary and Hill Intermediate schools in Bethel, more than one dozen children receive food to help get them through the weekend. The food packages, called TigerPacks, are delivered to kindergarten through fifth grade children

who qualify for free and reduced lunches and who have a need for food on the weekends. “Over the past few years you have just seen that people are struggling,” Cary Minarchek, a teacher’s aid and office worker at Bick Primary, said. “They’ve lost their jobs or they’ve lost their home.” Minarchek said unfortu-

nately this has disabled many families from providing adequate nutrition for their children. “While we don’t have starving children in this country, we do have hunger,” she said “And hunger really affects what goes on with children.” Minarchek said she realized children at Bick Primary were dealing with hunger when they would come into the office complaining of head aches and stomach aches.

Michelle Balside was named the Citizen of the Year in Amelia Jan. 17 and recognized for her years of hard work and dedication to the village. Councilwoman Renee Gerber read the nomination letter from former mayor Leroy Ellington at the meeting, which highlighted Balside’s contributions. “This person has served the village in a volunteer capacity since 2007,” Ellington wrote. “She began her career as a volunteer when she was appointed to the recreation commission, and took over as chair in 2008.” Ellington said Balside involved herself in various activities while serving on the commission including the annual Easter egg hunt, frisbee golf tournament, concert in the park and more. She was involved in the creation of the skate park

and Amelia Paw Park and worked to prevent vandalism in the parks by sending letters to residents. Ellington said she also worked countless hours to prevent the village from being dissolved by working as treasurer of the committee, soliciting and encouraging residents to become involved. Currently, Balside serves as chairperson for the board of zoning appeals in the village. “As a hard worker and community advocate for the village, she never asked for any recognition or compensation for her efforts,” Ellington wrote. “Because she has been active in making many good things happen in the Amelia village, I nominate Michelle Balside Amelia village Citizen of the Year 2011.” Current Mayor Todd Hart presented Balside with a plaque and council members thanked her for her service with a cake and refreshments.

cause she feels everyone needs to give back as much as they can. “It’s just the little things,” Balside said.

Residents of Clermont County donated 565 mittens, gloves, hats and scarves to the library during the month of December as part of the library’s Mitten Tree program. The cold-weather wear items were delivered to the James Sauls Homeless Shelter and YWCA in Batavia. The mitten trees were available at nine library branches where people could donate new or handmade mittens, gloves, scarves and hats. “We received many generous donations, among them were handmade items which were very impressive – very high-quality creations,” said Tracey McCullough, supervisor of programming. “We have

some very talented knitters and crocheters in Clermont County. It’s always amazing to see the number of donations that pour in. Clermont County residents and staff have been very generous.” The number of items donated increased 74 percent from 2009. Items were not collected in 2010. “We’re so grateful to receive this donation,” said Billie Kuntz, executive director of Clermont County Community Services, Inc. “We serve approximately 450 people a year. They will benefit greatly from this donation.” For more information visit www.clermontlibrary.org or call (513) 7322736, or contact YWCA Emergency Services at

“I believe it to be a cost thing, and of course it is extremely addictive,” Zinser said about its popularity. Amelia Police Chief David Friend also reported an overdose in his area to village council members at a recent meeting. “This is the second overdose since I have been here,” Chief Friend said. “And I have only been here a month.” Chief Friend said one overdose occurred when a user “shot up” in the back of a car. The driver pulled over, and by the time police got there, the user was not breathing. Chief Friend said they were able to reverse the effects with the use of Narcan, an opioid antago-

nist used for the complete or partial reversal of opioid depression, including respiratory depression. “With a lot of these guys it seems like they don’t have the drug for a while and then they want the drug so badly they add just a little more, or the drug is just a little too pure,” Chief Friend said. “A lot of times they have no idea what is coming out of the needle.” Prior to coming to Amelia, Chief Friend worked in Tipp City, Ohio. He said he noticed a big increase in heroin use in the past year there as well. Chief Friend said they would find the heroin capsules and syringes in vehicles and even found some users shooting up in gas stations because they couldn’t wait to get home.

their best. It affects not only their physical development but their mental and their social development.” Minarchek said she began looking into ways to help provide food for children on the weekend. She discovered that 51 percent of students at Bick Primary and 49 percent of students at Hill Intermediate are eligible for free or reduced lunch. And while that is a significant amount, it didn’t qualify the district to participate in outside programs such as Free Store Food Bank, which Minarchek said requires 60 percent. “I knew this was something would have to be done right here in the community,” Minarchek said. The Bethel Parent Teacher Organization sponsors the program, which became known as “TigerPacks.” Minarchek and other teachers, employees, and volunteers selected students to receive the weekend lunch packs and also developed the concept for how the packs would work and what would be included. “Currently, out of 70 (eligible) people, I am serving 19 students,” Minarchek said. “It was a really hard judgment call. My major concern was taking on the number of kids I could serve until the end of the year.” Minarchek said numbers were based on money raised and food donations received. She uses the donations to fill two lunch bags that contain several meals for the children to take home every Friday. Meals are designed to be nutritious and wellrounded, however, they must also be non-perishable. A sample meal includes a cereal bar, juice, canned tuna or chicken and crackers, and Minarchek has a specific list of what types of food can be donated to make sure the meals will be safe for children. She said that so far, several organizations and indi-

viduals have made significant donations to help support the program. And as the word spread, separate organizations and groups are either donating food or time to help the cause. Girl Scout Troop 41280, for example, came to Bick Primary Jan. 19 to help stuff bags and learn more about the program. “It fills a need in the community, it’s something the girls were concerned about,” troop leader Deborah Davis said. The girls helped pick meals that were nutritionally beneficial and packed them for Minarchek so she could deliver them to students the next day. “It makes me feel proud because I know I am helping people,” Lauren Abner, a fifth grader from Hill Intermediate, said about helping with the TigerPacks.

The Clermont County Narcotics Unit works with local police departments, including Union Township and Amelia, to control the movement of the drug and investigate the sources. “Heroin by far takes up the majority of our efforts,” Ventre said about the unit. “We’re involved in all aspects of it. We have active investigations going on and are pursuing leads.” He said they still deal with other drugs that are also popular including marijuana, prescription pills and methamphetamine, but heroin has a devastating effect. “It is a broad spectrum,” Ventre said about narcotics. “But heroin is what everyone sees, because that is what people are overdosing on.”

Richards struck the left side of Brewster’s van and went off the left side of the road. As he went off the road he struck Jim Bushman, who was walking his garbage can to the end of the driveway at the time. Richards came to a stop when he struck a tree. Richards, Brewster and Richards’ two passengers Patricia Kearney, 19, of Amelia, and Joshua Masterson, 20, of Cincinnati were all taken to the hospital. Brewster, Kearney and Masterson were treated and released the same day, while Richards remained in the hospital for multiple days. Bushman, who had recently been elected trustee of Batavia Township, was killed as a result of the accident. Aggravated homicide and vehicular assault charges were filed against Richards Dec. 7. Breyer said he hopes to receive the results from the lab sometime next week. Richards remains in Clermont County Jail. His next pre-trial hearing is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. March 13 in front of Judge Timothy Hogan.

In an interesting innovation to the art of mediabashing, Newt Gingrich dragged his two adult daughters into the sordid details of his breakup with his second wife. Apparently, Newt’s second wife has just published a book and mentions in the book that Gingrich had asked her to agree that their marriage should become an “open marriage.” What makes this a relevant question in Newt’s case is that the time span of his second marriage was when Newt first gained national prominence as one of the progenitors of the claim that the Republicans are the party of “family values.” This is a line of b.s. that Republicans continue to spout to this day (when they are not too busy “hiking the Appalachian Trail”). Accordingly, one of the moderators of a debate in South Carolina asked Gin-

‘Miracle baby’ Sophia Cordier left precious footprints Sometimes it takes great strength to be quiet enough to listen to the breathing of a child. Especially a child who is about to die. We want to rush around, to talk to the doctors, to make decisions, to somehow stop what can’t be stopped. The thought of a dying infant is a stab in the chest of every parent. It offends our basic sense of fairness. Babies aren’t supposed to die. Their lives are still ahead of them. As parents, we want to take charge – to make decisions, to defy gravity, to shake people by the shoulders in the hope of a medical cure. But there would be no medical cure for Sophia Cordier.

‘Will you be my travel trailer sweetheart?’ The icy conditions last Friday night apparently sparked a tinge of guilt in Yvonne, prompting her to come out to the travel trailer to check on me on Saturday morning. I heard a tap on the window and then the sound of her voice, “Are you okay in there?” “I’m okay,” I said in my most cheerful upbeat voice. “The heater stopped working during the night, and when I tried to open the door this morning it was frozen shut so I got back in bed to stay warm.” “Don’t be a martyr,” Yvonne said through the door. “I’ll get you out and you can come in the house.” Her words were music to my ears, and I was elated about the prospect of moving back into the house. As much as I love camping, two weeks of exile in the travel trailer in the middle of winter had worn me down, and had definitely cured me of any desire to ever try organizing the kitchen cabinets again. Yvonne’s footsteps made a crunching noise on the frozen grass as she turned and walked back toward the house. For a second I thought she had abruptly changed her mind about freeing me from my icy tomb, but then it occurred

GEORGE BROWN to me she was going to get something to break the ice loose from around the trailer door. My breath fogged the inside of the glass as I peered out the little window of the trailer watching for her return. Finally, I saw her com-

I had learned my lesson about leaving the kitchen cabinets alone and was

humbled by Yvonne’s kindness, as she began to chip the ice loose from the door. I decided to declare my commitment to cabinet-abstinence with deep sincerity and in a manner that would make a lasting impression. Yvonne worked quickly and my excitement grew with each tap of the hammer. When she opened the door and peered in her face glowed like an angel. She paused on the step and looked at me like a mother about to release her little boy from a long timeout, and give him a warm hug to reassure him of her love. I stood up, took a step toward her. “Honey...” (I always call her honey when I’m in trouble and am about to apologize), “…with the same sacredness and sanctity of our wedding vows, I plight thee my troth, and pledge to you that I will never touch the kitchen cabinets again so long as we both shall live.” A sweet smile came across Yvonne’s face. It was the same sweet smile I had fallen in love with nearly 50 years ago when we were only 16. I smiled back and we melted into each other’s arms. “Will you be my travel trailer sweetheart?” I whisSee Brown, Page A12

Ohio Supreme Court deals with voluntary retirement This case, which came before us – the Supreme Court of Ohio – earlier this year, involved a man named Juan L. Lackey. In 2001, Juan, who drove truck for Penske Leasing Company, L.L.P., injured his knee while at work. He was unable to continue working until surgery was performed on the knee in 2003. After the surgery, he missed two months of work, but he received temporary total disability compensation for that time. After he returned to the job, Juan drove full-time for the next 15 months. During that time, he filed a motion with the Industrial Commission of Ohio – which han-

PAUL PFEIFER OHIO SUPREME COURT JUSTICE dles such matters – to have further knee conditions allowed as part of his claim. In addition to that motion, Juan also filed retirement papers with Penske on July 27, 2004. There was nothing in his retirement documents which indicated that his decision to retire was connected to the industrial injury. Juan continued to work full-time for the next three months until the retirement became effective on Oct. 31, 2004. In August 2004, while Juan was still working, his attorney wrote to Penske’s benefits administrator alleging that Juan was retiring because of his injury. But medical evidence at that time did not indicate that Juan’s ability to work was compromised by his med-

ical condition. Four months later, Juan’s claim was additionally allowed for aggravation of a preexisting knee condition known as chondromalacia, as well as other degenerative changes. A year later, Juan again had knee surgery, and he requested that temporary total disability compensation be reinstated. A district hearing officer with the Industrial Commission denied the request after finding that Juan had voluntarily retired after his former position of employment for reasons unrelated to his industrial injury. The district hearing officer concluded that at the time Juan retired, there was no medical evidence indicating that his industrial injury affected his ability to work. Consequently, the hearing officer was not persuaded by Juan’s assertion that his decision to retire was motivated by his “allowed” knee condition. The See Pfeifer, Page A12

Eighth grade scholarship recipients from St. Louis School are, from left, Brian Gauch (Batavia), Grace Weber (Fayetteville), Zach Arnold (Cincinnati), and Brendan McGreevy (Batavia).

Four St. Louis students receive scholarships Four eighth grade students from St. Louis School, Owensville, are being honored for securing multiple scholarships based on their excellent performance on the High School Placement Test (HSPT) this November. The results were shared in January. Students were also honored by the prospective high schools’ award ceremonies at Archbishop McNicholas High School and Mount Notre Dame. Brian Gauch, who scored in the 99th percentile on the exam, received a four-year paid scholarship to McNicholas, valued at $50,000. “It (the scholarship) feels good. St. Louis has helped me learn a lot,” Brian said. “I feel like the Algebra program, taught by Ms. Katy DeNicola and Mr. Schweinefuss, helped with the math portion of the test.” For Grace Weber, the formalized building blocks started with summer practice HSPT test sessions. She describes the mounting excitement when opening her HSPT results. “I was overjoyed,” Weber said. “This has been exciting.” By scoring in the 96th percentile, she was able to secure a partial renewable scholarship to McNicholas (valued over $12,000), plus the Billiart Honor Scholarship and Merit Scholarship, each for $1,000, to MND. “I recently shadowed at MND and was impressed by the academics and sports,”

Weber said. She’s looking for a strong science program due to her interest in pharmacy. Additionally, she has aspirations for volleyball, golf, and field hockey. “Scholarships provide a fast track for Honors and AP classes, as well as special assistance for the college entrance SAT’s,” Weber’s mother and eighth grade St. Louis teacher, Mrs. Beth Weber added. “There will be ongoing expectations to maintain certain grades to renew the scholarships. I am so proud of all the kids for these accomplishments. We are fortunate that our school environment provides healthy academic competition. Even their classmates want to celebrate with them.” Both Brendan McGreevy and Zachary Arnold received the same partial renewable scholarship to McNicholas, valued over $12,000. Brendan attributes his success to the study habits and expectations laid within the school. “The teachers do push us to do our best,” Arnold said. Arnold also credits his academic success to the support from his family and friends. “It feels good to see how hard work and studying pay off,” he said. Prospective families can visit the St. Louis Pre-K – Grade 8 Open House, Feb. 1 from 6:30 p.m. – 8 or visit www.stlparish.org, or call (513) 7320636 for more school information.

After 19 years, Clermont County Chamber of Commerce President, Ed Parish said he won’t retire, but he has decided to give another qualified candidate a chance at the post. Parish plans on stepping aside but said he is not leaving the chamber. “I want to focus more on infrastructure,” he said. “Everyone is eager to have industrial and economic growth in Clermont County, and to do that, you have to make sure the infrastructure is sound/” Working closely with County Engineer, Carl Hartman, Parish has set his sights on roads, sewers and water lines in the hopes that expanding companies will want to stay and new companies will want to move into the area. “We’ve done very well in industrial growth, with 9,700 jobs retained in the county and 4,000 new jobs brought in”, Parish said. “We’ve brought over $1 billion worth of new industrial development to the area since 1989. Parish came to Clermont County after retiring as vice president of a Fortune 500 company in New York. He managed to stay retired for five months, but said he found that experience unsatisfying. In 1979 he accepted an invitation from the chamber to help accelerate economic growth in the area, and became the chamber president. “This is the fastest growing county in the state and it’s projected to remain so until the year 2020,” Parish said.

Celeste hits reduction in surplus food program Governor Richard F. Celeste criticized the U.S. Department of Agriculture for its plans to cut in half the state’s funding for the surplus food distribution program. The cut will total more than $1.1 million, and could jeopardize the distribution of government surplus cheese and other products to low-income Ohioans. Under the Temporary Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), managed by the Ohio Department of Human Services, approximately 50 million pounds of cheese, butter, non-fat dry milk, honey, rice, and other surplus agricultural products are distributed each year through more than 1,200 local food pantries throughout the state. Approximately 700,000 Ohioans receive food products each month under this program. Ohio was allocated $2.1 million in 1987 to subsidize the costs of the distribution. More than 90 percent of these funds are forwarded to local groups to pay for storage, transportation, and other costs incurred by these non-profit organizations.

40 Years Ago January 27, 1972 Beechwood residents get water-rate break Because bids were 20 percent below the estimated cost, water service subscribers in the Beechwood Road area will get a break on their water rates. The front foot assessment will be reduced correspondingly. Clermont County Commissioners said when they opened the water extension bids Friday. The low bid, submitted by Byrnes Conway Co. was $138,252. Estimated cost of the project was $173,000. Proposals came from ten contractors commissioners said, and five of them were below the estimate. Assessments, based on the estimated cost, were to be $1.60 per front foot, but now will drop to about $1.28 per foot. If more subscribers sign up before the line is installed, the cost per customer would be still lower. It was said. Assessments had to be made initially, commissioners reminded, because there is not the required minimum of 35 houses per mile to qualify for the water system assuming the entire cost.

Senate Bill 17, which became effective on Sept. 30, 2011, allows people who have permits to carry concealed firearms into business establishments, such as restaurants and bars, which sell alcoholic beverages. Previously, the law strictly prohibited the carrying of firearms into businesses selling alcoholic beverages. Q: I own a gun. Can I put it in the inside pocket of my jacket and walk into a bar with it? A: Assuming you are properly licensed, yes. You

firearm into any business that has been issued a Class D liquor permit. “Class D”businesses may include carry-outs, restaurants, nightclubs, clubs, hotels, shopping malls, marinas, museums and other establishments.

Q: Are there any restrictions on me if I want to carry a concealed firearm into a business that serves alcohol? A: Yes. If you are consuming alcohol or are under the influence of alcohol, you are not allowed to carry a concealed firearm into any business, including a business that serves alcohol. The law, however, does not specify whether a business owner has either the right or the obligation to ask patrons if they are carrying concealed firearms before

serving them alcohol. Q: What does the law say about carrying a concealed, loaded gun in a car? Although Senate A: Bill 17 is most widely known for allowing “concealed carry”in restaurants and bars, it also changes much of the law regulating the transport of firearms in a vehicle. Previously, a loaded firearm could only be transported in a vehicle if it was contained in a holster or a locked box, or was in plain sight. Senate Bill 17

lifted those requirements. Now, assuming you are properly licensed, you are allowed to transport a concealed, loaded firearm in a vehicle you are driving or riding in as a passenger without these restrictions. May private busiQ: ness owners restrict or prohibit persons from carrying concealed firearms onto their businesses premises? A: Yes. Private business owners still have the authority to prohibit concealed handguns at their

business locations, but they must post a notice in a conspicuous place stating that concealed firearms are prohibited on the premises. This “Law You Can Use”column was provided by the Ohio State Bar Association. It was prepared by attorney Lisa A. Wafer, an attorney with the Columbus law firm, Saia & Piatt, Inc. Before applying this information to a specific legal problem, readers are urged to seek advice from an attorney.

West Chester. After hearing all this the cat rescuer started yelling again, “Here kitty kitty.” She finally saw a little head sticking out of the area where the tanker hooks up to the semi. Her heart sank. The little thing was stuck and covered in grease. She was finally able to position her arm in the area and pulled the kitten out of the grease-filled area. It was so frightened, but so happy to be saved, safe and out of the cold. Many calls were made for someone to take in this little cat. The call of the wild was answered by Evelyn Black who contacted Friends of Noah, where it is now save in the loving arms of a rescue facility and has been named Tanker. Tanker was given a degreaser bath and will be prepared for adoption. You can see him on Friends of Noah’s

What pet owers need to know about dental disease Eighty percent of dogs and cats age 5 and older have some form of dental disease. Not just stains and bad breath, but diagnosable disease. Why the high numbers? The main culprit is plaque that develops on your pet’s teeth just like on human teeth. But unlike our pets, we humans have mastered the task of brushing our teeth daily. Some of us floss, rinse with fluoride, and even scrape our tongues for good measure. Plaque might not stand much of chance in your mouth, but your pet’s is a different story. Plaque is a colorless film that’s loaded with harmful bacteria. As plaque builds, these bacteria can cause tartar around the gumline, gingivitis, and eventually full-blown periodontal disease, which can destroy the gums and other tissues that support the teeth. Once periodontal disease develops, the consequences are not confined to the mouth. Bacteria can enter the bloodstream and cause infection, organ failure, and general poor health. Every major system of the body

While getting gas at the Kroger’s in West Chester on Jan. 17, someone heard a cat crying. Because the person who heard the sounds is an animal rescuer, she began to look for the cry of the kitten. She went to every car asking if they had a cat, but everyone continued to say the same thing, “No I do not have a cat.” She continued to yell, “Here kitty kitty,” and as she followed the cry, she walked up to a tanker that was dropping fuel at the gas station. The closer she got to the tanker, she could hear the cry louder. She asked the truck driver if he had a cat. The driver said that he did not have a cat, but he had heard a cat crying all day. So what was all day? The trucker said that he had started out in Highland County, Ky. and traveled to Indianapolis, then to Cincinnati, then to Lebanon before heading to

can be at risk. The good news is that dental disease is highly preventable and treatable in most pets. Ask your veterinarian for a complete oral checkup and take your pet in for cleanings once a year up to age 5 and twice a year after that. Dry food is generally a better choice than the moist variety because the crunching action scrapes plaque from the teeth. If your pet already has dental problems, ask your vet about special diets designed to promote oral health. There are several high-quality therapeutic foods on the market that help prevent plaque, tarter, and bad breath.

Service Note Pvt. Post Marine Corps Pvt. Nicholas H. Post, son of Kelly O’Keefe of Batavia, Ohio and Mike Post, of Cincinnati, Ohio, recently completed 12 weeks of basic training at Marine Corps Recruit Depot, Parris Island, S. C designed to challenge new Marine recruits both physically and mentally. Post and fellow recruits began their training at 5 a. m., by running three miles and performing calisthenics. In addition to the physical conditioning program, Post spent numerous hours in classroom and field as-

signments which included learning first aid, uniform regulations, combat water survival, marksmanship, hand-to-hand combat and assorted weapons training. They performed close order drill and operated as a small infantry unit during field training. Post and fellow recruits ended the training phase with The Crucible, a 54hour, team evolution culminating in an emotional ceremony in which recruits are presented the Marine Corps Emblem, and addressed as “Marines” for the first time in their careers.

Staying Safe During Winter Storms Severe weather is upon us. The recent ice storm is proof of it. Forecasts are usually followed by news reports of numerous injuries and home fires related to winter storms. Here are some tips to help you avoid a situation that could jeopardize your safety. Remaining inside, protected from the elements is the safest place to be during a winter storm. However, staying indoors has its own set of problems. The primary concern is the potential loss of heat, power, telephone service and a shortage of supplies if the storm persists for more than a day. Make sure space heaters are at least three feet from combustibles like drapes, clothing or furniture. Portable and space heaters account for nearly two-thirds of

Things to do before the storm hits

home heating fire deaths. Never use outdoor camping equipment indoors. Never heat your home with the oven or stove burners. Use only devices that are designed for heating indoors as an emergency heat source and carefully follow all safety precautions. The chance of fire increases dramatically when using alternative heating. Have fire extinguishers available to combat an accidental fire. Install and test smoke alarms in your home. Carbon monoxide detectors are important too, especially with alternative heat sources. Seal any windows that you suspect allow cold air into the house with caulking or plastic. Seal off any unused rooms by stuffing towels or rags in the cracks under the door. Cover the

windows with blankets or sheets at night if you have some extras available. Keep plenty of nonperishable food on hand, especially highenergy food that requires no cooking or refrigeration such as dried fruit and canned goods - and don't forget a nonelectric can opener. Stock up on bottled water (at least one gallon of water per

person per day to last at least 3 days). If you lose power in your home, remember to keep eating and drinking. Food provides the body with energy for producing its own heat. Keep the body replenished with fluids to prevent dehydration. You will also need these basic items: extra blankets, a flashlight and a battery operated radio

with plenty of extra batteries, candles and matches for extended periods of electrical loss. Be careful not to let your supply of medicine and first aid supplies get too low. You may not be able to drive to the pharmacy for refills. Make sure that each member of your household has a warm coat, gloves or mittens, hat, and

water-resistant boots. Try to keep as many of these items as you can in one place, so you don't have to search for them in the dark. Don't wait until a few hours before the storm hits to stock up. The lines are lengthy and some of the shelves are empty. Plan ahead and stay safe.

Charles Stephan, a 74year-old hospice patient, loves listening to classic records from the 1950s, particularly from “The King,” Elvis Presley. For his Gift of a Day, Stephan, his family and fellow residents of the Forest Hills Care Center were treated to a special performance by local Elvis impersonator Bob Lovelace. Wearing Elvis’ signature white jumpsuit and singing into a gold microphone, Lovelace entertained guests with timeless hits such as “Love Me Tender” and “Heartbreak Hotel.” Created by Crossroads Hospice, the Gift of a Day program asks patients what their perfect day is and staff and volunteers work to make it a reality. The process begins as soon as a patient is admitted. “The Gift of a Day program brings out the best in the community, with Crossroads staff, volunteers and area businesses coming together to create special moments for these seriously ill patients,” says Jackie Bou-

Schmidt: Precious footprints Don’t play politics with your investment decisions

B R O A D S H E E T

good idea to seek “tax diversification” by owning investments that are taxed in different ways. For example, when you sell appreciated stocks, you pay capital gains taxes, whereas interest payments from bonds will be taxed at your individual tax rate. And it’s always a good idea to take advantage of tax-advantaged vehicles, such as an IRA and your 401(k) or other employersponsored retirement plan. • Stick with quality. It’s a good idea, when owning stocks, to invest in quality companies with diversified businesses. These companies are usually less dependent on a particular government program, and they typically have a global reach, so they may be better able to handle any changes implemented in Washington. • Stay focused on your long-term goals. Politicians come and go, and our political parties seem to take turns holding the reins of power. Yet your long-term goals — such as college for your children, a comfortable retirement and the ability to leave a legacy to your family — don’t really change. By realizing that you are largely responsible for achieving your goals, and by following an invest-

ment strategy that’s suitable for your individual risk tolerance and time horizon, you can make gradual, but still meaningful, progress toward those goals — no matter what’s happening in Washington. • Review your strategy regularly. With the possible approach of changes in tax policies and in government programs that can affect your retirement security, you’ll want to review your investment strategy regularly to make sure it’s still on track toward helping you meet your objectives. As part of this review, you may want to seek out more “tax-smart” investment opportunities, while always looking for ways to supply the asset growth you’ll need to enjoy the retirement lifestyle you’ve envisioned. Aside from voting for the candidates who best represent your interests, you may not have much influence over what goes on in Washington. But by “electing” the right moves to help meet your goals, you can have plenty of control over your investment strategy. Article submitted by S. Christian Wilks, an Investment Representative with Edward Jones, Milford.

Miller: 800 officials needed E V E N

Continued from page 4 election process by becoming Precinct Election Officials. With people’s busy lives it makes it more difficult to find persons willing and able to fill these positions. As director of the Clermont County Board of Elections, it’s my job to make sure that we conduct fair, honest and transparent elections. We have an excellent office staff, with equal numbers of Republicans and Democrats, but we need your help with the big job on Election Day. One way we protect the democratic process is by recruiting and training Precinct Election Officials to manage the polls on Election Day. Many people do not want to get involved in “politics,” but this is a way to do your civic duty with-

out getting involved in the “politics .” Let me give you four reasons to sign up to be a Precinct Election Official: 1. It takes only a small amount of your time and gives you an opportunity to play a vital role in your government. 2. You can provide a necessary service for your community while having fun at the same time. 3. It is an opportunity to meet new people in your community. 4. You get paid $130. You may know someone who has been a poll worker before. If so, chances are they will tell you it’s fun and easy. And, if you have been an election official yourself, now is a good time to invite a friend or co-worker. What are the qualifica-

tions, and how do you sign up? You must be at least 18 years old, registered to vote in Clermont County and free of any felony convictions, and you should enjoy working with other people. All you have to do is call the Clermont County Board of Elections at (513) 732-7275 or email us at Elections@ClermontCountyOhio.Gov. We’ll schedule you for one of our February training classes at the Eastgate Holiday Inn, and you will be able to work at the Primary Election on Tuesday, March 6. We hope to hear from you within the next few days so we can get you signed up. Judy Miller is the director of the Clermont County Board of Elections.

While the election season heats up, you will hear more and more promises, claims and counter-claims from the candidates. As a citizen, you may or may not enjoy this “political theater,” but as an investor, you might be concerned over all the talk about taxes, Social Security, Medicare and other financial topics. Will you need to adjust your savings and investment strategies? If so, how? Before you think about adjusting your investment strategy in anticipation of any actions coming from Washington, keep a couple of facts in mind. First, few campaign promises become reality. And second, due to our system of government, radical shifts in direction are difficult to implement — which is why so few of them occur. Still, we may see some smaller-scale — yet not insignificant — changes in the near future. In light of this possibility, what investment decisions should you make? Here are a few suggestions: • Consider owning investments that are taxed in different ways. No one can predict what will happen with income tax rates or the tax rates that are applied to capital gains and dividends. Consequently, it may be a

option of abortion. They said no. Ann, 43, and Andy, 49, who married 14 years ago, considered Sophia’s life to be as sacred as those of their other five children – even if her life was to be a short one. It still had value beyond measure and was worthy of respect. Sophia’s uncle, Father Michael Cordier, pastor of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church in Miami Township, is my parish priest. I was one of hundreds of people who paid their respects last week at Sophia’s visitation at St. Gertrude Church in Madeira. I spoke briefly with the child’s mother. Ann told me that she hopes Sophia’s life will help people recognize “the value that each and every person has as they are created in the image of God – no matter their shortcomings or faults.” Such children, Ann said, “should be loved and cherished and protected.” This is a family of deep faith and quiet courage, which even strangers could see. “I really admire you for what you’re doing,” one of the nurses told Ann shortly before Sophia was born. The Cincinnati Enquirer reported on what Ann had called her “miracle baby” – and on how many parishioners at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton and St. Gertrude were praying for Sophia and her family. The paper followedup with a report on the child’s death. “We really were very reluctant to share our story, but we prayed about it,” Ann told me. “My motivation was that if one life, one little baby, could be saved and see the light of day and be brought home by parents, it was worth being in

Sophia Cordier and her sister Rose, age 4.

the limelight for a little bit no matter how painful it is for us. “I want people to have the courage to choose life – to embrace life even if it has faults,” Ann said. “I also want people to have the courage to choose God’s will over their own, to be at peace with what happens.” I’m the chairwoman of the Congressional Pro-Life Women’s Caucus, and I share Ann and Andy’s view that all life is sacred. The annual March for Life is scheduled for Monday, Jan. 23, in Washington, and it is fitting that we keep people like the Cordiers in our thoughts and in our prayers. Sophia’s family found a way to reap joy from a child who would never be able to speak her own name.

Sophia died surrounded and held by the family who loved her. In addition to her parents, Sophia is survived by: two brothers, Joe, 13, and John, 7; three sisters, Marie, 11, Michelle, 9, and Rose, 4; and grandparents Paul and Mary Ann Blom of Springfield Township in Hamilton County, and Laura Cordier of Mariemont (widow of the late Eugene Cordier). Other families wrestle with the same issues – of life and death, of mercy and conviction, of hope and despair. They, too, need our moral support, our arm around their shoulder, and our ear to hear their story. Jean Schmidt is the U.S. Congresswoman serving Ohio’s Second District.

Brown: My ‘trailer sweetheart’ Continued from page 4 pered. Yvonne squeezed me a little tighter and answered, “Yes.” Then she took my hand and with an air of excitement she said, “Come on, I want to show you something.” We walked back to the house hand-in-hand and she led me into the kitchen. Without saying a word she

reached up and opened the cabinet doors. “Look” she said proudly. I couldn’t believe my eyes. The canned goods, pastas, cake mixes, and everything else was arranged neatly and in alphabetical order. Then Yvonne turned to me and said, “I too plight thee my troth, and pledge that I will help you keep the cabinets neatly organized so

long as we both shall live.” She had a tear on her cheek as she spoke and I leaned over and kissed it away. “I think we just renewed our wedding vows,” I said. “I think so too,” she answered. George Brown is a freelance writer. He lives in Jackson Township.

Pfeifer: Voluntary retirement Continued from page 4 district hearing officer also determined that Juan’s retirement constituted a voluntary abandonment of the entire labor market. When Juan appealed that determination, the staff hearing officer – the next person in the process to review the appeal – elaborated on the district hearing officer’s finding. The staff hearing officer stressed that in the 17 months since Juan had retired, he had not looked for other work. In the staff hearing officer’s opinion, Juan’s testimony evinced an intention not to work again. Therefore, the staff hearing officer affirmed the previous order in its entirety, keeping the denial of temporary total disability compensation intact. Juan filed yet another appeal with the Commission and, in 2006, submitted an affidavit in which he claimed that he had retired because of his industrial accident. The Commission, however, refused further appeal. After that, Juan filed an action in the court of appeals alleging that the Commission had abused its discretion in denying compensation. But the court of appeals denied the action after determining that the Commission’s findings were supported by evidence. Juan’s next step was to bring his case before our court for a final review. As its name suggests, a temporary total disability is a disability that prevents an employee from returning to his or her former position of employment. In previous

cases involving the question of temporary total disability, our court has determined that it must arise from a condition that was caused by the industrial injury and that has not reached the maximum medical improvement. Eligibility for compensation under the circumstances just described depends on whether the separation from employment was injury induced. If it was not, a claimant may receive temporary total disability compensation only if he or she has found other employment and is later prevented from doing that job by a flare-up of the original industrial injury. If departure was related to the injury, it is not necessary for the claimant to first obtain other employment, but it is necessary that the claimant has not foreclosed that possibility by abandoning the entire workforce. That’s because the temporary total disability compensation compensates for “the loss of earnings which a claimant incurs while the injury heals.” But when a worker voluntarily exits the labor market, “he no longer incurs a loss of earnings because he is no longer in a position to return to work.” Juan alleged that he left Penske because of his industrial injury. But the Commission found otherwise. It also concluded that when Juan left Penske, he retired from the larger labor market as well. Our review of the evidence supported the Commission’s order. There was no medical evidence indicating that when Juan filed for retirement, his ability to perform

his regular duties was adversly affected by his industrial injury. To the contrary, Juan worked fulltime for nearly a year before submitting his retirement notice and continued to work in that same capacity for another three months. That is hardly consistent with a condition so debilitating as to force an individual to prematurely leave his job. Juan pointed to both his 2006 affidavit and his attorney’s August 2004 letter as evidence that his injury indeed motivated his decision to retire. But Juan didn’t submit the affidavit until after the staff hearing officer proceeding at the Industrial Commission. So, the Commission was not required to consider it. Moreover, previous case law has determined that the Commission is the sole evaluator of evidentiary weight and credibility. Therefore, the Commission was free to reject as unpersuasive the letter that Juan’s attorney submitted. We concluded that the Commission did not abuse its discretion in finding that Juan’s retirement was unrelated to his injury. Accordingly, Juan could receive post-retirement temporary total disability compensation only if he were gainfully employed elsewhere and was prevented from doing that job by his individual injury. And that did not occur. Therefore, by a seven-tozero vote, we affirmed the judgment of the court of appeals. Paul Pfeifer is an Ohio Supreme Court Justice.

Schwietering: Gingrich

CMYK

Continued from page 4 who asked the question and the media in general, to the wild applause of the farright audience in South Carolina. The tactic of dodging tough questioning from reporters by media-bashing has been a staple of Gingrich’s debate performances since the debates started last spring. It plays well with audiences of the extreme right, but it is beginning to wear thin with everyone else. One would think that the reporters, who are only doing their jobs, could get an honest answer to their questions even if the candidate finds the questions uncomfortable or inconvenient. Perhaps Gingrich’s problem is that he has spent too much time being interviewed on Fox “News.”

Fox News has people who play reporters on TV, but no real reporters. The amateur actors on Fox News who play the part of reporters do ask questions of the person being interviewed, but, if the individual being interviewed is a right-winger, those questions are “softball” questions. If Newt Gingrich wins the Republican nomination, he will have to face real questions from real reporters much more frequently than he does now in order to have any chance to win. If that time comes, he will find that avoiding questions by engaging in mediabashing has a very short shelf-life with voters in a general election. Paul Schwietering is a former Democratic state central committeeman. He lives in Union Township.

Milford’s junior guard Josh Roof goes in for a layup on Tuesday, Jan. 17, but it was Roof’s five three-pointers that keyed the Eagles to a win over Little Miami.

Roof went six-for-nine from the field, including five-for-six from threepoint land to lead the Eagles with a career-high 17 points. “(He) was really the difference in the game,” Cambron said of Roof’s effort. “For him to be able to knock down those shots when no one else was scoring consistently, that really kept us in the lead because if he’s not hitting those shots, we’re struggling offensively. “His career game, scoring-wise, really made a huge difference in us being able to stay ahead even though other guys weren’t scoring consistently.” Roof scored eight firsthalf points leading the Eagles to a 24-12 halftime lead, something Cambron was happy about with their leading scorer, Overbeck, only accounting for two first-half points. Little Miami deserves credit for their “never say die” attitude, coming out with intensity in the third quarter and frankly, dominating the first few minutes of the second half with their quick play. However, with all the effort the Panthers were showing, they were simply overmatched. Whenever Little Miami was able to get the deficit to single digits, Milford would answer with a Roof jump shot or an easy layup down low. Where the Eagles struggled in the first half getting their big men touches, Cambron made an adjustment in the second half to establish Overbeck in the low post. “We were trying to get the ball in the high post, giving us a chance to be below their top guys (in the zone) and that would give us a chance to attack three versus two and our size advantage would give us some See Milford, Page B10

Slow start dooms Bethel BY ANDREW WYDER Sun Group publishing

Coming in to their match up with Southern Buckeye Conference American Division rival Western Brown, the Bethel-Tate girls basketball team was already facing plenty of adversity. With post player Kendall Murphy already out for the year due to injury, the Lady Tigers lost their tallest remaining player, senior starter Cyra Jones, to a concussion in their win over Batavia on Jan. 17. So as they prepared to tip off against the Lady Broncos last Thursday evening, the Lady Tigers could ill afford to get down to a bigger and deeper Western Brown squad. Unfortunately for the Lady Tigers, that was just what happened. Using full court pressure defense, the Lady Broncos jumped out to a 9-0 lead in the first minute and a half and never looked back as they rolled to a 68-45 conference victory. “You go down nine nothing and we mentally broke down and we really never recovered from that,” Bethel coach Dave Fallis said. “We called a couple timeouts to calm things down and have a couple conversations. When you do that to a team a lot of times you can break their spirit pretty quickly.” See Bethel, Page B10

Amelia defeats Goshen in team victory Lady Barons use tough schedule to prepare them for late-season run BY CHRIS CHANEY

Sun staff

The Amelia Lady Barons toughened themselves up over the Holidays by playing some of the best competition the area has to offer in Glen Este, Turpin and Milford. Although Amelia lost all three games, Lady Barons head coach Tara Kaiser believes the challenge those three games brought to her team will make them better coming down the stretch. “The key for us (to string together wins towards the end of the season) was playing great competition over the holidays,” Kaiser said. “We wanted that to make us better, so that’s what what we wanted to do going into the second half of the season. “The first half of the season, we lost to New Richmond by one and Bethel by four, so we’re right in there. We plan on making a strong go at it.” The challenges the Lady Barons faced over the past few weeks brought about a great team win on Thursday, Jan. 19 over Goshen 57-37. “I would say individually, every one of our kids had a great night,” Kaiser said. “The best thing about tonight was that it was a whole team victory and that got us all pumped up.” The Lady Warriors started the game off with an

and-one by Kelly Parriman, but Amelia went on to score nine-straight points to open up a seven-point lead, 9-2. The key to the Lady Barons’ first-quarter run was their work on the offensive glass. Amelia was getting multiple shots at the basket nearly every time down the floor, only going backing up on defense after a made basket. “We went after it from the very beginning offensively. We took good, smart shots and it put us in position to get the rebounds. That was the difference,” Kaiser said. Seniors Kymmy Simon and Megan Menztel accounted for all nine of the Lady Barons’ first-quarter points, but were aided by the strong effort by their teammates on the boards. Goshen hit the last two field goals of the quarter to cut the Amelia lead to two, 9-7, at the end of the quarter, but the Lady Barons’ defensive pressure seemed to just settle in as the first period ended. “We played great defense,” Kaiser said. “We had a great scouting report on them and we did exactly what we wanted to do and it kept them from scoring. “They have four really good three-point shooters and we prevented that.” As the Amelia defense tightened on the Lady Warriors, Goshen did their best to keep themselves in the

game with some solid defense of their own, forcing some turnovers by the Lady Barons. Eventually, though, Amelia was able to break through, again thanks to Simon and Mentzel. Both guards were able to expose

the Goshen zone by driving into the heart of the defense and dropping off passes to the low block where Danielle Lang and Cassidy Bailey were able to finish around the hoop. The Lady Barons held Goshen to five points in the

second quarter, allowing no field goals and forcing the Lady Warriors to earn their points from the foul line, taking an 18-12 lead into the locker room. Amelia blew the game open in the third quarter, scoring four quick points to start the half and give the Lady Barons a 10-point lead. Lang, a junior, led the way for Amelia in the third scoring six points, but also making her presence felt on the defensive end with steals and blocks. With the Lady Barons shutting down Goshen underneath the hoop, the Lady Warriors resorted to shooting contested jump shots. “We just kept going at them (in the third quarter) and took smart shots and they fell for us,” Kaiser said. When the dust settled following the third quarter, the Lady Barons had opened up an 18-point lead, 35-17, all but putting the game to bed. Goshen had no quit in them as the Lady Warriors ratcheted up their pressure in the fourth quarter, putting on a full-court press and flying all over the court trying to get back into the game. Unfortunately for Goshen, the Lady Barons kept their composure and dealt with the press while also playing the same hardnosed defense that built their lead. Even when it seemed like Goshen had a fighter’s chance, cutting the lead to 15 with just under five minutes remaining, Simon took control of the game and iced it from the foul line.

Milford tough defense, outside shooting lifts Eagles past Little Miami in FAVC tilt The Milford Eagles came into the 2011-12 campaign with a lot of new, albeit talented, blood on their varsity basketball team. The Eagles have shown flashes of their potential as a serious contender in the Fort Ancient Valley Conference, but also have seen that potential escape them in a few close losses. After going 5-5 in the first half of the season, Milford started the second half of their year with a 51-40 win over Little Miami on Tuesday, Jan. 17. “We think we’re a really talented team,” Milford head coach Joe Cambron said after the game on Jan. 17. “We have a lot of new guys on varsity, but we’re 11 games into the season. All these guys that are playing, they’ve played a lot of minutes.” The Eagles list five players on their roster at 6-foot3 or taller meaning there are very few occasions when they do not have a size advantage down low. Milford’s main big man is 6-foot 7 senior Rob Overbeck who ranks in the top10 in the FAVC in scoring, rebounding and blocked shots. “He’s our leading scorer, he’s our leading rebounder, he’s a captain and a senior. He shoots 60 percent from the floor, so us getting him touches was really important,” Cambron said. Overbeck didn’t get many touches in the first half of the Eagles’ game against Little Miami as the Panthers tried to even the playing field by packing in a two-three zone to keep Milford’s big men from hurting them. “They had a great gameplan and executed it,” Cambron said of Little Miami. “With one of their best players not playing tonight, that obviously threw them off a bit. They played hard, they were scrapping. The coaches are doing a really good job with the team they have.”

The Lady Barons held Goshen to 30 percent (1343) shooting from the field and out-rebounded them 37-24. Amelia’s three seniors, Simon, Mentzel and Alanna Whited scored 32 of the Lady Barons’ 57 points. “All of our seniors mean a lot to our program. They’re all leaders, on and off the court. Kymmy does things great, Megan does things great, Alanna does things great,” Kaiser said. “They all have their own thing that they bring to the court and it’s excellent leadership and that obviously showed tonight.” Simon scored a gamehigh 22 points and pulled down eight rebounds, Lang had 12 points and eight boards. Mentzel had an impressive stat line, scoring eight points while pulling down seven rebounds and dishing out seven assists. The Lady Barons faced off with Aiken on Tuesday, Jan. 24 and then head to New Richmond to face the Lady Lions on Thursday, Jan. 26. Goshen drops to 7-8 on the year and will head to Bethel-Tate to play the Lady Tigers on Thursday, Jan. 26.

looks,” Cambron said. Getting the ball into the high post allowed Overbeck to seal his defender, giving his teammates an easy lob pass over the top that resulted in two points nearly every time down the court. Little Miami kept fighting, trading baskets with the Eagles through most of the third quarter, once again cutting the Milford lead to eight with a few minutes left in the third quarter. But again Milford responded with back-to-back scoring possessions to open the lead back up to 12. After three quarters and Milford leading 36-25, it seemed as if regardless of what Little Miami tried, the Milford lead was too big to overcome. That didn’t stop the Panthers from trying, running two sets to open the fourth quarter that went for field goals. Little Miami implemented a full-court press, but with the Eagles abundance of ball-handlers, the Eagles were able to dispel the press and convert on transition baskets. The fourth quarter had a nice flow to it with both teams scoring 15 points each, but simply equalling the Milford output wouldn’t get the job done for Little Miami as they fell to 3-9 on the season with the 51-40 loss. Milford improved to 6-5 on the season and 5-3 in the FAVC with the win, but the Eagles were unable to string that momentum into a win

The Lady Broncos wasted no time jumping on the visitors from Clermont County as Kylie Garrett quickly nailed a 3-pointer just nine seconds in to the game. And they just kept the tide rolling by beating the Lady Tigers at their own game -- pushing the tempo. Once Garrett’s shot sailed through the net, the Lady Broncos set up their full court pressure defense and quickly got the results they had hoped to. Western Brown’s Elizabeth Carter stole the ball from Bethel as they tried to advance the ball against the press and found teammate Delayne Seigla for a layup to put the Lady Broncos up 5-0 about 30 seconds in. After a missed Bethel shot, Western Brown pushed the ball again and, this time, Morgan Wright got into the action as her layup put the hosts on top 70 less than 40 seconds in. Then Seigla did it herself as she stole the ball and went in for a layup. Her second basket of the game put the Lady Broncos up 9-0 with 6:29 left in the first quarter and forced Fallis to call timeout. “We always stress that the first two minutes of the game are two of the most important minutes of the game (and) the first two minutes of the second half,” Fallis said. “We lost both those contests tonight.” It looked as if the Lady Tigers were going to be able to withstand the Lady Broncos quick start as they settled down after Fallis called timeout. Brooke Jenike hit a 3pointer to get the Lady Tigers on the board before teammate Andi Lanigan converted a layup off a teammates drive and dish. The baskets quickly closed their deficit to four, 9-5. Once Seigla answered with a 3-pointer for Western Brown, Jenike and Taylor Atkins hit back-to-back jumpers to cut the deficit to three, 12-9, with a little over four minutes left in the opening period. It was at that point, however, when Garrett took over for the Lady Broncos. She scored five straight points to push the Lady Broncos to an eight point lead before Carolin Baker’s pull-up jumper brought the Lady Tigers within six, 1711, as the first quarter came to an end. But while the Lady Tigers were starting to find some consistency offensively, they had no answer defensively for Garrett and her teammates. As the second quarter began, Garrett, a 5-foot-9 guard/forward, helped Western Brown add to their lead as she converted a layup and was fouled. Her foul shot put the Lady Broncos up 20-11. However, Baker answered right back for the Lady Tigers as Bethel stayed within striking distance. But, again, it was Garrett who answered as she drained a 3-pointer. Then, after the Lady Broncos

on Friday, Jan. 20 at Walnut Hills as they fell 71-56 to the league leaders. “In the second half, our goal is to win seven or eight ball games at least where we are contender at the end of the season,” Cambron said. The Eagles have eight games remaining, beginning with Wilmington on Tuesday, Jan. 24 and Goshen on Saturday, Jan. 28.

The Ohio Department of Agriculture and the Ohio Department of Natural Resources today announced the discovery of a hemlockkilling pest in southeast Ohio. Hemlock Woolly Adelgid (HWA) is a small, aphidlike insect native to Asia that threatens the health and sustainability of eastern hemlock and Carolina hemlock in the eastern United States. HWA was first reported in the eastern United States in 1951 near Richmond, Va. By 2005, it was established in portions of 16 states from Maine to Georgia, where infestations covered about half of the range of hemlock. The relatively small infestation was discovered at Shade River State Forest in

Meigs County as part of ODNR’s ongoing forest health survey program. At this time, five trees out of approximately 500 hemlock trees surveyed were infested. HWA is primarily transmitted by wind and birds. Officials believe the finding in Ohio is the result of natural spread from nearby areas where the pest is established. While a small number of HWA infested landscape hemlocks have been reported to ODA, this is the first time HWA has been detected in a naturally occurring stand of hemlock in Ohio. After further survey of the areas surrounding the site of infestation, officials will determine an appropriate course of action.

forced a Lady Tigers miss, Garrett came down and hit a short jumper in the lane to put Western Brown up 2513 with 5:24 left in the half. With their tallest player standing 5-foot-6, the Lady Tigers had no answer for a determined Garrett. She scored 27 points and grabbed 11 rebounds. “Kylie just played a whale of a game,” Fallis said. “She brought some intensity today that she didn’t have that first game we played. She came back and got our number today, that’s for sure.” But the Lady Tigers continued to hang around. A Jenike 3-pointer kept the deficit in single digits, 2516, with 4:20 left in the half. The Lady Broncos, however, answered with five straight points as they pushed their lead to 30-16 with 3:46 left in the half. Over the final three minutes of the half the teams both began to get out and run. They traded baskets on the final four possessions of the half as the Lady Broncos took a 37-24 lead into the break. The second half opened in a similar fashion as the teams traded buckets the first two and a half minutes of the half. It was at that point, however, where the Lady Broncos broke the game open. A Garrett free throw and offensive rebound and putback got the Lady Broncos going before teammate Amber Dowd hit one of two free throws to increase the Western Brown lead to 4528. Jenike -- who, along with Baker, scored a team best 12 points -- momentarily halted the Lady Broncos with a driving layup to bring Bethel within 15, 4530. But Wright and Garrett

quickly scored on back-toback possessions to put the Lady Broncos up 49-30. Though Kylie Sawyers answered for the Lady Tigers, another Garrett layup and an Elizabeth Carter free throw pushed the Lady Bronco lead to 20, 52-32 as the third quarter was winding down. Western Brown took a page out of the Lady Tiger’s game plan to open their lead. “We’re typically the team that runs, runs, runs. We had a smaller rotation of girls today because we’re missing a couple of girls and we got tired,” Fallis said. “If we’re not running and pushing the ball our halfcourt offense against bigger teams doesn’t produce a whole lot points.” Bethel battled in the final quarter as they tried to cut into the Lady Bronco lead but could get no closer than 16 before Western Brown pulled away. “We’re still building a program,” Fallis said. “If things turn out the way we’d like it to, this will be our second winning season in a row. So we’re still learning how to win.” The Lady Tigers bounced back after the loss with a win over Felicity on Monday, Jan. 23, 56-28.
