End of line for bus depot By Kelly McBride kmcbride@communitypress.com
Princeton City School District continues to dig in to its $120 million project to build a new middle school and high school campus, demolishing its transportation depot on the middle school campus to make way for new construction. A crowd of a couple dozen watched in the searing sun Tuesday, as a backhoe bit into the building, crunching it to the ground. The transportation office, as well as the fleet of buses, have been moved to a new operations center in Sharonville. Superintendent Gary Pack provided an update of the project that will bring two new
schools, a common building totaling 530,000 square feet, as well as athletic accommodations to the district. “We have started construction on five of the new tennis courts to be completed prior to the opening of the new school year,” Pack said. “We have removed the underground tanks,” he said of the previous work done on the property. Some district employees have moved to the new operations center off of Hauck Road, in Sharonville. The rest of the administration center will move from Glendale to the old RELIS school building throughout the upcoming school year. “Everything is on schedule,” Pack said, “including the design documents for the new

The expanded center will have a contemporary look, Greiner said, and will include electronic signage inside and out. The lobby will feature a ceiling projector to run video or still shots. This option will allow clients to welcome visitors to their events. “It’s allowing us to open up and expand our markets for a lot of conventions that could’t come here before,” Greiner said of the new, larger facility. “It will bring more conventions to town,” he said. Currently, Sharonville books about 200,000 a year. “We expect to grow that,” Greiner said.
“Between all this added space, this is really putting us in the convention business for Greater Cincinnati,” Greiner said, “in a very serious way.” The addition is expected to be completed by October, with the entire project wrapped up by April 2012. “The Sharonville Convention Center is a strong economic generator for Northern Hamilton County,” Lovitt said, “and continues to be a source of pride for the people of Sharonville.”

Glendale Police Officer Lenton Delow Williams checks gear in his patrol car before heading out on his second day back to work.
Glendale cop back on patrol By Kelly McBride kmcbride@communitypress.com
The police officer slipped behind the wheel, quietly heading out on patrol as he had for many years. In Glendale, where police are known by name, Officer Lenton Delow Williams was spotted as he cruised through the village, and spent a good part of his shift being welcomed back to work. He had spent nearly five months recovering from injuries he’d suffered when a pickup truck hit him as he directed traffic after a car accident in the village. To punctuate his return, the first call he responded to on Wednesday, within his first hour of work, was to the scene of a traffic accident. “It didn’t take him long to get into the flow,” Police Lt. Dave LeCompte said of the officer’s return to work. He was expected to return in September, but was cleared for work after racing through challenges set by his physical therapist. “They wanted to see what I could do, and found that I could do everything,” Williams said. “They thought I had six more weeks left, but said they ran out of things for me to do.” He has returned to work full time. No limitations. Williams suffered neck, rib and head injuries when he was struck by a vehicle while directing traffic in February. The driver, Johnny McCoy, 49, of Mount
Princeton City Schools is reaching out to residents for help in locating children in need of special educational services. As part of a requirement to educate children with special needs, the district is working to locate children who may have disabilities, in order to assess their needs and create a plan to educate them effectively. “Some parents might not know this is available to them,” said Tom O’Neill of Princeton school district.
Healthy, hit Williams, fracturing his neck and ribs, and resulting in a head injury that required 46 stitches. McCoy pled guilty to operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated, and to a minor misdemeanor of drug abuse. He pled not guilty to failure to comply, as he didn’t yield to the original traffic accident, and was found guilty at trial. McCoy received a fine and probation. Glendale police are happy to have him back, LeCompte said Thursday. The department has seven full-time and two part-time officers, so Williams’s absence hit hard. “We’re also thrilled because we get our most experienced officer back in to the routine," LeCompte said. Glendale Police Chief Dave Warman has worked alongside Williams for 20 years. "Delow has been the workhorse of the department for years, and it's great to have him back and healthy," the chief said. "The support he has been given by our residents during this time has been fantastic and we are grateful for that," Warman said of the cards, gifts, and two fund raisers held on behalf of the officer. “It’s nice to have him back as a person,” the lieutenant said. “His personality adds to the flavor of the department.” With that, Williams headed out again to patrol the village.

Princeton runner matures into leader By Ben Walpole
bwalpole@communitypress.com
Macerio Clark will be making his fifth appearance in a national track meet next month when he competes in the AAU Junior Olympic Games in New Orleans. But in many ways, the Princeton High School standout is a whole new runner this time around. “A drastic change,” said Kendra Kelly, who coaches Clark on the Ohio Pride Track Club. “Within the last year he has improved immensely. Times have gone down. His maturity level has gone up. I’m very proud of him.” Clark qualified for the AAU Junior Olympic Games as part of Ohio Pride’s 4x100 and 4x400 relay teams. The 4x100 relay of Clark, Milan Riddle (Lockland), Kyle Donthnier and Clayton Scheidler (both of Williamsburg) finished third at the AAU National Qualifier meet June 30 through July 3 at Wittenberg University in Springfield, Ohio. The 4x400 of Clark, Riddle, Princeton teammate Antonio Graham and Marques Graves (Winton Woods) also advanced with a thirdplace finish.
THANKS TO MACERIO CLARK
Princeton High School’s Macerio Clark will compete in the AAU National track and field meet in New Orleans in August.
THANKS TO MATTHEW DONTHNIER
The national-qualifying Ohio Pride 4x100 relay team of, from left, Milan Riddle (Lockland), Kyle Donthnier (Williamsburg), Macerio Clark (Princeton) and Clayton Scheidler (Williamsburg). “This is the best of the best,” Kelly said. “Our whole season is geared toward the national championships.” Which brings us back to Clark’s improvement. He was named Princeton’s most improved runner this past spring after leading the 4x400 Viking relay to a Greater Miami Conference title. So what changed? Kelly credits his parents
– mother, Lanita Hill, and stepfather, LonZell Hill. Clark said simply getting older has helped him mature – less complaining about practice, more attention to detail and leadership at practice. “Especially when I was younger, I didn’t really like to work hard,” Clark said. “Now I’ve seen it pay off.” The biggest inspiration, though, for Clark’s sharper focus may be the loss of one
of his best friends. Princeton classmate Jovante Woods, a standout in both track and football, died last August after suffering an asthma attack. Clark wore Woods’ running spikes during the track season as a tribute. “I’ve been trying to work as hard as he did,” Clark said. “I’ve been doing it mainly all for him.” The league championship in the 4x400 relay
become sectional champion and district runner-up, but it is baseball where he really excels. Named Most Valuable Player and All-League First Team, he helped his team to a 16-3 record. He is someone who has the upmost respect for his teammates, opponents and officials and gives his all to win. His coaches say he is not only a very good baseball player, but he also knows and respects the game and his sportsmanship reflects this respect.
Clark’s stepfather, LonZell Hill, a former wide receiver for the NFL’s New Orleans Saints, and Clark knows what to expect from the national competition. He plans to run indoor track this winter, outdoor track next spring for Princeton, with hopes of pursuing the sport at the next level. “I want to go to college really bad,” said Clark, who also earned three All-Academic honors last school year. “And I know my parents want to see me succeed. So I’m not gonna let anyone down.” For more coverage, visit Cincinnati.com/blogs/ presspreps

But he’s gone now.” The new-found perspective and confidence has Clark hoping both his relay teams can medal in New Orleans at nationals.

Cross country teams cross team lines at CHL camp By Ben Walpole bwalpole@communitypress.com
Mariemont High School has won the last two boys cross country Cincinnati Hills League championships; Wyoming High School has twice been the runner-up. So it might seem odd that Cowboys team captain Seth Gold fell back to offer some encouragement to a Mariemont runner during a practice run this week. Very odd. But that’s the way of the inaugural Cincinnati Hills League Cross Country Camp at Finneytown High School. Runners from around the league are learning about the sport and making friends. “It’s definitely an interesting experience,” said Gold, who finished fifth in the CHL meet last year. “When we’re out on the race course or the track, there’s this fierce rivalry. We want to beat each other. We want to win. But when we’re just practicing with

But they got to know each other simply as friends during the CHL Cross Country Camp. each other, you want to help each other.” Finneytown head coach Rich Jones started the camp
last summer, primarily for Wildcat runners. This year, with the help of Mariemont head coach Jeff Timmers,
Wyoming head coach Travis Glendenning and famed Cincinnati distance-running coach Randy Cox, the camp has grown to include more than 50 campers from Finneytown, Indian Hill, Madeira, Mariemont, Taylor, Wyoming, even non-league Batavia. “We just had a vision of this thing that would bring a lot of runners together to build great friendships,” Jones said. “The whole thing of building something bigger than yourself – it’ll make you a better competitor and a better person.” The five-day camp featured a variety of activities, including a shoe clinic at Bob Roncker’s Running Spot and guest lectures from a nutritionist, a physical therapist and a sports psychologist, among others. Returning Mariemont standout Mara Coyan particularly enjoyed former St. Ursula Academy cross country coach Jeff Branhan’s talk about goal setting.
“I thought that was really cool,” Coyan said. “He gave us some information that I want to take back to the team.” The week also has served as a good introduction to the world of high school running for several younger campers. Wyoming resident Mike Maisel said his son Mikey has loved the experience. “The varsity kids have gone out of their way to make a seventh-grader feel comfortable,” Mike said. “I think that says a lot.” The camp marks the unofficial start to Corinne Saul’s varsity running career. She will be a freshman at Finneytown this fall. “It’s been neat to meet different runners from different schools who are in to the same things,” Saul said. “When I get to CHLs in high school, I’ll be able to see people I know.” This CHL togetherness has roots in last cross country season. The teams from Finneytown, Mariemont and Wyoming often set up

camps as a group at meets and went on cool-down runs together after races. That is not to say there isn’t the occasional tension. “I’ll have kids say ‘T, what are you doing? Why are you talking to Seth Gold?’” said Timmers, Mariemont’s coach. “But I want them to see me as an example.” Glendenning said he thinks the team camaraderie only improves the league as a whole, which helps when they compete at districts and other non-conference meets. Cox, who helped set up many of the events during the camp, likens the unity in the CHL to the running community in Cincinnati atlarge. “All the speakers I have coming in, they all do this voluntarily,” Cox said. “That’s the neat thing about the running community. They want to see the sport grow.” For more coverage, visit Cincinnati.com/blogs/ presspreps

Alzheimer’s reduces loved ones to mere shadows As I write this I am some 38,000 feet over the Atlantic reflecting on the importance of memory. My mother and I have just placed my father in a nursing home in England, because his Alzheimer’s was too much for her to cope with at home (she is nearly 80). Throughout this process I have been oddly detached and clinical. True, I did major in psychology in college and perhaps this has helped me put this whole mess in perspective in a rather clinical fashion. You see, memory is what makes us who we are. It makes our personality, because we are the sum of our past experiences
(plus some genetics, but let’s keep it simple). Somewhere, deep inside, when Mom or Dad or a teacher said to us in first-grade Bruce Healey that it is bad to Community lie, we register that and somePress guest where we form a columnist nest of memories that turn us into fairly honest people. When we were told by a loved one that it would be better to listen to others and contribute to a conversation rather than concentrating on ourselves in front of

What services would you be willing to do without in order for your community or school district to cut its budget because of decreased state revenue? No responses. Which TV commerical really annoys you? Why? “JS Gold and Coin. The spokesperson is a DJ from a local radio station. ‘We buy high and sell low.’ “My 11-year-old pointed out that a company could not stay in business if that were truly the case.” M.F. “All commercials for prescription drugs. These drugs are supposed to be something your physician recommends based on the ailments you have, not how much the commercials have convinced you you need them. “Every time I consider the high cost of prescriptions I can’t help but conclude that a big part is attributable to these incessant, annoying, and wrongly targeted commercials. “Prescription drub advertising should be banned, like it used to be. It is unnecessary and wasteful.” F.S.D. “The Capital One credit card commercials. I just don’t get them.” M.O.R. “Actually it is a group of commercials and they happen to be insurance related. “I’ve had it with the gecko, Flo on Progressive insurance, the fellow who does the State Farm ads – all of them. “Why do we allow them to punish us with this garbage? Enough is enough.” D.D. “Oh, where to begin! First of all, if the commercial features Billy Mays (RIP), Anthony Sullivan, or ‘Sham Wow Vince,’ that qualifies as ‘annoying.’ “Next, if the commercial starts with a black and white video clip of someone digging in a garden, or watering plants, making a pained face, while the announcer says ‘Oh, no!’ and then morphs to color, showing the person using the pitched product with a big smile on his/her face, finishing with the announcer saying, ‘But wait!,’ that is an automatic ‘annoyer.’ “Then there is the Magic Mesh

(The E/D commercial which shows the happy couple in side-by-side bathtubs is a close second.)” Bill B. “The TV commercial which really gets under my skin is the American Freight which this guy keeps yelling the entire commercial and enhanced by that truck air horn.” O.H.R. “Not sure of the name but the one where the man’s daughter and now they’ve added her younger brother ... maybe they sell windows?” J.F. “Every time I see a Progressive Insurance ad I see a perky woman in her ‘showroom’ along with two idiots who are supposed to be her competition. “If the competition for my business consisted of two boobs who spend all their time at my place praising my business I would not need to advertise. “It’s that wishful thinking on the part of so many advertisers that irks me. They use actors portraying nerds or incompetent nincompoops who praise their product or service. “Do they really think I’m going to spend my money based on the say-so of someone who belongs in an institution?” R.V.
others, we took it to heart, and learned to be more empathetic. You get the picture. Now imagine that each of those building blocks fades and this become reordered as one disappears completely. Yes, we become someone else, at least for a time. This is so hard for those closest to the patient. Later, whole sections of our memories simply disappear, and we find it difficult to talk or walk – because we have difficulty remembering word or how to perform the most automatic of acts. In the end, we forget everything and then we just exist, incapable of forming a memory or a relationship of any kind. We can’t even control our body.
If it sounds terrifying, it is. Initially, the patient shares the terror, but perversely the illness robs them of the memory of what is happening to them, a sort of reverse blessing. Meanwhile, what of the spouse, the children, the friends? They are left perplexed and devastated. As my mother said, the nursing home seems final, and yet, it is not. The grieving is so much more drawn out than a funeral, because your loved one goes away a piece at a time. There is the person we loved, in body. Can we still love them and care for them even if they are not the people we knew? This is the hard part, and I suggest, the
true test of love. You are looking at a shadow of a person. The closest thing to a ghost most of us will ever see. And yet, as my Mother said, “he is everything I have, for 54 years – can I do anything else but love him?” I know there are readers out there who are going through this or have already gone through this. I cannot tell you how much admiration and respect I have for you or for your essential qualities of patience, endurance and love. What I can tell you is that you are not alone and you will get through this, one day at a time. And that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Smog season is here again Now that the warm weather has sprung upon us full force, so has the smog. In early June the 90s hit the Tristate and brought with it the region’s first smog alert of the season. So what exactly is smog and why does it become such an issue during these hot summer months? Smog is an air pollutant containing gases and other reactive chemical mixtures that is formed when sunlight combines with them. They create an irritating mixture throughout the air making breathing difficult, especially for children, the elderly and people with respiratory problems. Now that the heat has arrived, the warm temperatures increasingly facilitate the mixing of those gases which creates more air contamination. Along with the temperatures, urban areas are among the top of the list for high smog levels. In the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana Regional Council of Governments region that consists of Butler, Clermont, Hamilton and Warren counties in Ohio; Boone, Campbell and Ken-
ton counties in Kentucky and Dearborn County, IN., this is due, mainly, to exhaust from vehicles. Geography has something to do with Lauren it as well; since Koehler the region sits in Community a valley of sorts, surroundings Press guest the could trap the columnist pollution inside. In order to see a decrease in the amount of smog that is formed, residents of the Tristate area need to be informed and stay conscientious. OKI is a non-profit organization actively trying to keep citizens aware of the smog issues in the Tristate area. OKI’s primary charge is to notify people, businesses and the media of smog alerts on days when there is high air contamination. OKI’s “Do Your Share for Cleaner Air” campaign is one way the community can stay informed
about smog and related air pollution issues. This campaign gives many examples of what individuals can do to help keep our air clean, such as: • Carpool with friends or coworkers: sign up for RideShare, a free service, by visiting www.rideshareonline.org. • Turn off all unused lights. • Refuel vehicles after 8 p.m. • Use lawnmowers after 8 p.m. • Walk, bike or Rollerblade on short trips If carpooling or vanpooling is not feasible, individuals can park at one of the many park and rides around the Tristate area and take a bus (call METRO 513-621-4455 or TANK 859-331-8265). Simply spreading the word to friends and family is also helpful. For more information and additional tips to reduce air pollution, visit www.doyourshare.org, become a fan on Facebook at www.facebook.com/doyourshare, or call 1-800-621-SMOG.

Inspiration from Father Lou Billy Glisson found out about Father Lou Guntzelman’s death when he inquired where he might see Father Lou preach. Thank you so much for emailing me back in regards to Father Lou. I’m so grateful that you took the time to email me about his passing. At first I was very excited I even received a response. I first observed the email on my smart phone and was very excited someone, or even Father, took the time to respond to me. Then at a stop light I opened up the email and read your message. It was like receiving news that a family member had just passed suddenly. Very odd for me to react this way, I’m usually the tough one of the group. I hope somehow Father knows how he affected and influenced myself and the beginnings of interest of my wife! Which I will tell you that is a tough nut to crack! I don’t know if our story is worth printing, here goes. We moved here a almost two years ago from out west due to a job promotion and transfer. My wife had never left her home area her first 35 years of her life, and then after 18 years being married
to me my job takes her 2,000 miles away from all of her family. One can only imagine the adjustment, strain and test of faith that one goes through during this period. I grew up in Michigan, coming back this way was exciting in a sense. We receive the Florence Recorder and I began to read it to get acquainted with the local activities, which at times seemed like fruitless activity due to the challenges as a family we were going through in the beginning. Then I began to read Father’s articles. Of course at first I just thought, “Oh, what does this Catholic priest have to say about life?” I was very pleasantly surprised of his articles. I began to leave them out in the open for the wife to read, then I found myself cutting them out and saving them. Then I cut out his article about fear at the Olympics and took it into work, and used it as a intro as how we can as people be better at life as well at work. Over the past year and half I have done this three to four times, and the response from the team members I’m responsible for has been so positive towards the morale of the staff.
Father Lou’s ability to capture the essence of life from a faith perspective, as well as real life events and feelings, are like those I have only experienced from three priests that this lifelong Catholic has come across. His challenge was not only to be Catholic but to be Christian and human at the same time. He gave you a perspective I’m sure enticed anyone who was reading his words to stop and reflect, then think how can they apply to their life. We must not think that his work is lost now. We must take what he has taught us and continue with his mission of teaching us how to have a strong and unwavering faith in God and ourselves, even with all of our faults. I can only hope you will continue his articles as all of the major newspapers have with Charles Schultz and the Peanuts comic strip. To allow us to enjoy and bring us down slowly from his words that only now can be lived through the flock of sheep he oversaw. I will say a prayer tonight for Father Lou and you for allowing us to enjoy his articles. Thank you again very much. Billy Glisson is a resident of Union, KY.

Heritage Village Museum honors top volunteer Heritage Village Museum in Sharon Woods has named Ed Creighton as the 2010 Volunteer of the Year. In 2010 Creighton volunteered more than 454 hours at the museum; working in a variety of areas including school programs, village tours, building interpretation, maintenance, programming, exhibits and grants, and in May 2010 he joined the board of directors. Creighton first came to the Heritage Village Museum as a visitor and fell in love with both the Village and its mission: to educate, enrich, engage and entertain people of all ages as they learn about the culture and heritage of Southwest Ohio during the 19th Century. Then, in 2007, he became a volunteer and has become involved in many areas of the Village. “The Village is a special place because it has preserved both historic buildings and artifacts that are irreplaceable. With these treasures, people are able to learn first-hand how our

Creighton’s love of history began when he was a young boy, as he began collecting artifacts at the age of 11. He believes, “History is important because it helps us understand what has happened to shape our present lives. It is history that holds the key to surviving the future.” His personal collection of Chester Park and Winton Place Station memorabilia is on exhibit inside the Chester Park Train Station at the Village. “Ed is an invaluable volunteer who always teaches
us something new every time he is here,” said Shelly Gregg, volunteer coordinator for Heritage Village Museum. “The time and service he has given to so many different areas of the Village are greatly appreciated and we look forward to working with him for many more years to come.” Creighton and his wife, Kathy, live in an 1852 farmhouse in the Oxford area. His home was recently added to Ohio’s Historic Register and was included in the Cincinnati Museum Center’s Heritage Tour that took place June 18.

When it comes to collars, one kind doesn’t fit all “Nosey, STOP!” I cried, as my basset hound slipped out of her collar and went running happily toward traffic. “Look at me, I’m one naked doggie!” she giggled, stopping just before reaching the street, then trotting back to me, with her tail wagging merrily. “Oh, Nosey,” I said, firmly fastening the collar back around her neck, “That’s not funny, you could have been hurt or worse. That’s it, you’re getting a harness so this will never happen again.” Nosey is a rambunctious puppy who weighs just over 50 pounds. She’s strong and is not yet perfectly trained in the art of leash walking. She pulls at the leash and sometimes the strain of holding the other end has literally knocked me off of my feet. Just a month ago, I was trying to make her go into the kitchen from the garage and she pulled so hard that I (wearing high heels) lost my balance crashing into and breaking the glass of the storm door.
Marsie Hall Newbold Marsie’s Menagerie
It left a gash in my arm so deep that it took seven stitches to close up. So, getting Nosey fitted with the proper harness was an urgent safety mat-
ter for us both. I turned to my friend, Jeff King, who owns Pets Plus in Taylor Mill for the “4-11” on collars, harnesses and leashes. According to Jeff, there are several categories of collars and they serve different purposes beyond just something to hang ID tags on. There are walking collars, tie-out collars and training collars. The most common are made of nylon or leather. If you have a dog that gets wet a lot, a nylon collar is the best choice. Leather collars can be ruined, for example, if your pet goes swimming. One size does not fit all. Collars come in many
Jeff King’s tips
• Put a collar on a new puppy as soon as you get them home. This will make them get used to wearing one from the beginning. • Choose rolled collars for long-haired dogs and flat collars for short-haired dogs. • Check the fit of your dog’s collar at least every two weeks. The fit will change as a dog grows, gains or loses weight. • Do not choose a choke chain. • Always use a tape lead. Corded leads are dangerous because they can get wrapped around your fingers and burn or cut you. • Make sure that your dog is wearing ID tags at all times. PHOTO BY MARSIE NEWBOLD
Jeff King, owner of Pets Plus in Taylor Mill, measures Nosey for a collar. lengths and widths and should be chosen according to your dog’s size. For example, a basset hound like Nosey needs a wider collar than a Scottish terrier because they give the owner more control. To get a perfect fit, it is best to bring the dog with you to try them on.
A good fit is when you can fit two fingers between the collar and the dog’s neck. Then, check to make sure it cannot slip over the dog’s head. Jeff adds that tie-out collars should, in addition to the factors above, have metal buckles. Plastic buckles can break if a dog tugs
hard enough. There are two types of training collars: choke chains and pinch collars. He doesn’t recommend choke chains. “They don’t train the dog, they only choke the dog,” he said. “Pinch collars are best for training purposes,” he said. “They shouldn’t be kept on a dog all of the time, but they work great.
“I had a lady come in the store the other day who had a Springer spaniel that pulled on its leash. After I put a pinch collar on it, it stopped pulling immediately.” Harnesses, like the one I chose for Nosey, go around the chest and ribcage and are kept in place by the dog’s front legs. They cannot be slipped over the head like a collar. Jeff is partial to what is called a “comfort wrap.” It looks a bit like a stretchy nylon vest. Leashes come in three sizes, a 2-foot traffic lead, a 4-foot one for big dogs and a 6-foot one for small dogs. There are also double leashes for walking two dogs at a time and retractable leashes. “You can’t just walk into a pet shop and buy off the peg,” Jeff counsels, “You need to fit collars, harnesses and leashes according to your individual dog’s needs.” For more pet care tips, visit www.marsiesmenagerie.com.

Be sure to do the paperwork for baby’s insurance There are lots of things to do when you have a baby, and notifying your health insurance company in a timely fashion is one of the most important. That’s what a Fairfield couple learned after they were denied health insurance for their newborn. Braden and Carrie Hasselbeck knew they needed to add their baby to their health insurance policy. Braden said they were relying on Carrie’s insurance. “We were going to have a baby and my insurance wasn’t doing as well. So, we switched Carrie to fulltime work and we were going to expect coverage from her,” he said. Baby Madison was born Jan. 25, and Braden said, “We got back from the hospital – it was a C-section so we were there for about a week. We knew we needed to add the baby to the insurance so we actually contacted Carrie’s boss at
work.” T h e y were told to contact Carrie’s human r e s o u r c e ’s department Howard Ain ba l t hu o ut g h, Hey they made Howard! n u m e r o u s phone calls, it was several weeks before they finally got through, filled out the necessary paperwork and had it submitted. “By the time she received a call from the company it was just to let us know it was too late,” Braden said. Although Carrie’s health insurance card said she has “family coverage,” she really doesn’t. They have “employee and spouse insurance.” Their policy needs to be changed to “family coverage,” costing an additional $75 a month, but they can’t do it now since their
window of opportunity has closed. “They cover everything for my wife, they cover everything for me, but anything with Madison’s name on it is immediately declined,” Braden said. “They show what the insurance should pay, but is not paying.” Carrie said, “They just needed paperwork at my job that I could have found online, but nobody told me it was online.” At this point the baby’s medical bills amount to almost $12,000. Carrie offers this advice to all pregnant families, “They need to check with their employer months in advance – and follow up on it.” The goal is to switch from “employee and spouse coverage” to “family coverage,” and that can only be done after the baby is born. Under federal law you have just 31 days to submit the paperwork with the
baby’s name and date of birth. After that time you must wait until the next open enrollment period. In Hasselbeck’s case, that will happen in October. There could have been confusion because the Has-

Out of one zucchini jam and into another We waited until late June to plant our zucchini and cucumbers. And we did that on purpose since every year I’m inundated with both of these veggies at exactly the same time the tomatoes and peppers are ready for picking.
It’s hard to keep up, so this year I’m staggering the planting so that we can get a breather in between.
Easy zucchini peach pineapple jam
For several readers who wanted this recipe again.
It’s a great way to use that abundance of zucchini that you know you’ll have if you grow it. Go to taste on the sugar. I find 3 cups is plenty, but most folks like 4-5. A nonstick pan is best for this. Use your favorite flavor of gelatin/Jell-O.

6 cups grated zucchini, skin left on 1 ⁄2 cup water 3-5 cups sugar Rita 20 oz. Heikenfeld crushed pineapple in Rita’s juice or kitchen syrup 6 oz. favorite gelatin: try peach, strawberry, apricot, etc. Boil zucchini in water for five minutes. Drain well and return to pan. Add sugar and pineapple. Boil 10 minutes, stirring frequently so it doesn’t stick. Remove from heat and stir in gelatin. Cool, spoon into jars and refrigerate.

Cook for a minute over low heat. Add everything but greens and cheese. Bring to a boil. Lower to a simmer and cook about 15 minutes or so. Add fresh greens. Stir until just wilted. Pour over pasta.

I know a lot of you do, too. Now we’re eating whole grain/whole wheat pasta more. When I first switched, though, my husband Frank did not like the whole wheat at all. I started mixing it half and half with white pasta until he got used to the texture and flavor of the whole wheat. And that’s what I suggest. Be sure and buy a good quality whole grain/wheat pasta, as well. 1 pound pasta, boiled (we like whole wheat) 1 ⁄2 cup olive oil 1 generous tablespoon minced garlic 1 ⁄8 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste (opt.)

A company with offices in Sharonville has chosen to stay in the city it has known a decade as it expanded to a new facility within the city. P.E. USA, which sells the machines that affix labels to products, and makes replacement parts for those machines, recently held a ribbon-cutting ceremony at its new facility at 89 Partnership Way. Public officials from Sharonville, as well as the chamber of commerce and employees of P.E. USA attended the ceremony. The company, which is a division of P.E. Labellers, SpA in Mantova, Italy, moved from its former Sharonville location on Rockfield Court. Accounting manager Rhonda Kelly said P.E. USA wanted to keep its employees close to the offices they’ve known since 2000, where “everybody knows us.”

P.E. USA has expanded to a new facility at 89 Partnership Way in Sharonville. She also cited tax incentives offered by the city of Sharonville to expand within the city. Tammy Riddle, Sharonville’s economic development director, said the city was excited to be able to find a suitable location for the company’s expansion. “We’re always eager to help businesses in their growth plans,” Riddle said. As a partner with the Sharonville Chamber of Commerce, its president, Rich Arnold, attended the ribbon-cutting. “We welcome the business and not only provide support for them but also provide significant benefits for each team member of the business,” Arnold said.

Compass Community Church
Compass Community Church takes a different approach to worship, starting with regular Sunday services at Rhinos Live, an entertainment venue. Compass Community Church pastor Dorrien Hinsey needed to find a new home for his three-year-old church. The search had been on for awhile, but some buildings cost too much, others weren’t a good fit for the size of the congregation, and still others were a logistical nightmare when it came to setting up equipment and other elements for a church service. Then he found an unlikely place that seemed “just right.” As he drove by Rhinos Live on Chester Road, he was intrigued by the idea that it was conveniently located, and most likely had the space and equipment he was looking for. After a chat with owner Larry Keckeis, Hinsey knew the hunt had ended with Rhinos. The church held its first service at Rhinos Live in late August 2010. “We’re excited to have found the right spot,” Hinsey said. “Sure, it’s a little different, but then, so are we. This building has the space, equipment, and flexibility to let us do our thing – which is to give folks good music and a sound message in a casual atmosphere.” Rhinos owner Keckeis agrees, “I’m
