Mild winter helps budgets in Boone Crews able to work on other projects By Justin B. Duke and Stephanie Salmons kynews@communitypress.com

The mild winter weather is working wonders locally, reducing costs within local budgets. Florence Public Services Director Bob Townsend doesn’t want to jinx anything, but so far the city has only spent about 20 percent of this year’s budget for snow and ice removal. A mild winter like this one proves how difficult it is to predict how much money to budget for snow removal. This year, Florence set aside $120,000, Townsend said. “It’s not an exact science trying to determine that fund,” he said. Keeping the plows parked for most of the winter makes

some workers happy and some sad in Florence, Townsend said. Many are glad they aren’t having to put in the overtime needed to keep roads clean. However, many enjoy the boosted paychecks that come from snow removal, he said. A lot of workers really enjoy getting to go around the city and Florence has earned a strong reputation for its clean roads during snowy weather, Townsend said. “It’s a job they take pride in,” he said. Boone County Administrator Jeff Earlywine touched on the topic during a second quarter budget report Feb. 21. The mild winter helps with overtime, salt, fuel and “with a lot of costly repairs on 39 sets of snow vehicles and plows,” Earlywine said. The not-so-winterlike condiSee MILD, Page A2

WARM WINTER BENEFITS MORE THAN LOCAL GOVERNMENTS Local governments aren’t the only ones benefiting from the above-average temperatures. Jeanni Reusch, business manager of the Boone County golf courses, said there’s usually one winter month where the golf courses will get “some playable days,” but this year, they’ve had play every single month. Last year, there were zero rounds played in December and January, compared to several days of 100-plus rounds. The warmer weather has also helped boost memberships, which are on a calendar year. “The more rounds they can get in earlier the year, the better the value of the membership,” Reusch said.

HEBRON — Laura Stacy, 23, of Hebron, a 2007 graduate of Conner High School, won’t be home until July. She’s currently part of a 10member team of AmeriCorps National Civilian Community Corps members, finishing up an eight-week project supporting the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service. The team is based out of the Oklahoma Ranger District within the Ouachita National Forest. This is her second of four projects in the 10-month AmeriCorps NCCC program. Stacy, the daughter of Paul and Judy Stacy, said she had just graduStacy ated from Morehead State University and wanted to do more than go straight back to school. She wanted to travel and to help the community. She currently serves on her unit’s fire management team. “I’ve always been interested in firefighting,” Stacy said. The team offers something that’s different and challenging, she said. “I’m excited and happy with the project and being on the fire management team,” Stacy said. The experience she’s received with the forestry service has been great, she said. It’s an “incredible amount” of knowledge she never should have learned otherwise. So far, Stacy said she’s been able to help with two smaller prescribed burns and plans to work on a larger, 7,000-acre prescribed burn soon. Prescribed burns are used as a tool to preventing future

Maternity home looking for mentors By Libby Cunningham Lcunningham@nky.com

ERLANGER — Women interested in mentoring young mothers could help Mercy Maternity Home in a search for qualified volunteers. Currently, the Christian women’s residential home in Erlanger is searching for Christian women interested in helping mothers get their lives back on track. The home

serves six women for the first six to eight weeks after childbirth. “We are looking for women who would be committed mentors that we could assign ... a client to and they (the mentor) would be committed to meeting the woman for a year,” said executive director Cara Gault. The mentor is responsible for helping with case management and Bible study, as well as the mother’s transition from

the facility to a new home. “We just see time and again that women, apart from a personal relationship with Christ, will go back into their old ways and get messed up with drugs or men and bring those bad habits back,” Gault said. Mercy Maternity Home is a residential facility that provides a home and guidance for a mother and her newborn until the baby is 8 weeks old. Women staying there are required to

attend church once a week, participate in Bible studies and attend in-house programs such as budgeting or cooking classes each week. Women are also required to work or attend school. Gault said she is really searching for Christian women to fill the spots. For more information, those interested in volunteering should visit http://www.mercymatern ityhome.org/serve/ .

Boone budget doing well midway through By Stephanie Salmons ssalmons@nky.com

BURLINGTON — Boone County leaders received some good news during the Feb. 21 Fiscal Court meeting with a “a positive report on what thus far has been a very good budget year.” County administrator Jeff Earlywine gave officials a second quarter budget report. The second quarter, he said, is “always a nice snapshot” because it’s midyear.

sources like income from personal property taxes and deed transfer taxes are “all performing strongly at the midpoint,” Earlywine said. The county is confident they’ll meet or slightly exceed the projected $38.93 million mark for the general fund revenue, he said. According to Earlywine, the current fiscal year began strong after the previous fiscal year ended with a little more “carry-over money” than was forecast.

Revenues for the second quarter, which ended Dec. 31, are “tracking favorably,” Earlywine said. Payroll tax receipts collected in the last quarter are up 8.3 percent over the same quarter in 2010, he said. “It’s a healthy sign,” Earlywine said. “We couple that with the first fiscal quarter (and) we are forecasting that we will meet and probably exceed our $18.2 million forecast for occupational license fees.” Other larger revenue

wild fires, she said. While she graduated with an exercise science degree and plans to pursue a master’s degree in exercise physiology, fire management is still something that interests her, Stacy said. Because of the skills she’s gained in AmeriCorps, she knows “if something were to happen, I can be there and help.” Stacy’s next project will be working at a school in Denver, but she will return to Oklahoma around midMay for “summer fire season.” AmeriCorps NCCC is a full-time, residential, national service program. During their 10-month term, Corps members work with natural and other disasters, infrastructure improvement, environmental stewardship and conservation.

tions have also helped the county save on utility bills and energy, he said. “The energy saving project this county did a year or two ago, we’re starting to see dividends even in a mild year,” Earlywine said. “We’re seeing lower utility bills and that should just compound itself in years to come.” In a phone interview, Earlywine said last year the county had more than 20 snow events where removal crews were deployed, many times on overtime. While the county filled its salt bin during the last fiscal year, the public works budget has $400,000 budgeted for procurement of salt which would happen if the county started using more in the course of the winter or if they replen-

doing well and Earlywine said the county is forecasting they will underspend this year. According to Earlywine, the mild winter has helped with expenses in terms of overtime, fuel and salt as well as the utility bills. The jail fund as well as the public works fund are also performing well. There aren’t a lot of projects in the capital improvement fund, “but we’re doing well,” he said. The biggest project is ish it at the end of the winter season. Getting through the winter “relatively unscathed” would save a bigger part of that allotment, he said. The mild winter can also translate into savings elsewhere in the budget, such as reduced road expenditures in the spring, Earlywine said. It also means better customer service for residents because the public works crews have been able to “be out more than they normally would, actually completing work orders,” he said. Compared to this time last year, the city of Walton has spent $10,000 less on overtime because city workers haven’t had to remove much snow, said City Clerk/Finance Officer Peggy Gray. “It’s really saved the city a lot of money,” Gray said. If the weather continues the way it’s been, making the city’s budget

South Airfield Road construction, which has shut down for the winter. That work is on schedule and on budget at this point, Earlywine said. The county has “every expectation” the project will be completed on time and at or below budget, he said. “So overall it’s a positive snapshot at the midpoint of the budget period,” Earlywine said. “We feel like we’re really well positioned to end the year on a positive note and plan ahead to fiscal year ‘13.” for next year will be that much easier because there will be extra money added to the general fund because of the unspent snow removal budget, she said. Union Commissioner Bob Kelly said the city’s winter-related expenditures (snow removal and salting) are “way, way down,” about a third of what they were last year. So far the city, which budgeted around $132,000 this year, has spent about $60,000, he said. Last year’s total cost was around $180,000, Kelly said. Union contracts with an outside company for snow and ice removal. The company has been out maybe eight times this year versus at least 25 to 30 times by this point last year, Kelly said. “We hope this continues,” Kelly said. “It saves a lot of money for municipal governments.”

Wilkinson rejects plea, opts for trial By Brenna R. Kelly bkelly@nky.com

A 30-year-old man charged with helping his mother kidnap a 73-yearold Hebron millionaire then burn his body in an Indiana field has rejected a plea offer and wants to stand trial. Louis Wilkinson was scheduled to plead guilty Feb. 22 in Boone Circuit Court, but instead his attorneys asked the judge to set the case for trial. Wilkinson, 30, is charged with murder, kidnapping, abuse of a corpse and exploitation of an adult in the death of Walter Sartory, a reclusive retired scientist. Prosecutors say Wilkinson and his mother Willa Blanc, 50, held Sartory taped to a chair in the basement of their Union home in late February 2009. His burned body was found outside Indianapolis in March 2009. After his death, Blanc used forged documents to raid Sartory’s bank accounts which were worth more than $2 million.

Blanc pleaded guilty in December to avoid the chance a jury would sentence her to death. She was sentenced last month to life in prison without parole and is currently serving her sentence in the Boone County jail. Prosecutors do not plan to seek the death penalty for Wilkinson. However, he could face life in prison without parole. Under state law, kidnapping someone who is not released alive carries the same penalty as capital murder – life in prison or death. Commonwealth’s Attorney Linda Tally Smith said she thought a plea deal had been worked out though she would not reveal the terms of the agreement. “We’re simply at an impasse,” Smith said. Wilkinson had promised to cooperate with authorities in the case against his mother but has been less than helpful, she said. “To this date he has not fulfilled the requirements as we historically refer to those concepts,” she said. Smith said she does not

Louis Wilkinson appears in Boone County Court on Feb. 22. He is the son of Willa Blanc. Wilkinson was expected to plead guilty, but chose instead to stand trial in the 2009 kidnapping and death of Hebron millionaire Walter Sartory. CARRIE COCHRAN/THE ENQUIRER expect to call Wilkinson’s mother to testify at his trial. Wilkinson also has new defense attorneys after his former public defender

left the office. He’s now represented by public defenders Heather Crabbe and Keith Morgan. Judge Tony Frohlich set Wilkinson’s trial for May

14. He’s scheduled to appear in court again April 18. When Wilkinson and his mother were arrested March 14, 2009, at a Sharonville motel, Wilkinson told deputies that “he was tired of his mother controlling his life,” according to court records, and referred to himself as “a slave of his mother.” As he was being questioned Blanc told authorities that her son was of “low mental functioning” and would not know to ask for an attorney. However, Wilkinson scored an average of 102 on IQ tests, which is average, when he was evaluated at the Kentucky Correctional Psychiatric Center. Though he was found competent to stand trial, a state psychiatrist diagnosed Wilkinson with a personality disorder, with narcissistic and dependent traits. Wilkinson told staff that he had never been able to live on his own and always relied on family members for financial and emotional support.

District court judges attend state training District Court Judges Charles T. Moore and Jeff Smith participated in the 2011 Kentucky District Judges College that took place Oct. 18-21 at the Administrative Office of the Courts in Frankfort.

Boone considers parking fines By Mark Hansel mhansel@nky.com

The Boone County Fiscal Court appears ready to approve an ordinance designed to address parking woes that have plagued the county for years. Fiscal Court has scheduled a second reading of the ordinance, with an opportunity for public comment Feb. 21. At the first reading of the ordinance Jan. 24, Boone County Administrator Jeff Earlywine said the new citation will allow the county to address parking problems more efficiently and effectively. Earlywine said the existing system is a drain on resources and law enforcement officers’ time. New fines would range from $30 for the first or second offense within a year and $60 for additional offenses. Under the current system, violators are on the hook for the fine plus at least $143 in court costs. Currently the county uses a state citation form that must be handed to the driver of a vehicle, and the disposition of the offense is handled in district court. “It’s a considerable commitment that takes (officers) away from patrol and other law enforcement duties that might be a little more needed in the community,” he said. The numbers suggest parking violations have become a huge problem in Boone County and motorists may be realizing the limits to county en-

forcement. From Jan. 1, 2006, to Aug. 31, 2011, the Boone County Sheriff’s Department responded to 17,263 vehicle complaints. Of that number 21 percent were for parking issues and 24 percent were for abandoned vehicles. Of the remaining calls, 46 percent were related to speeding or reckless operation of a motor vehicle. County officials say the creation of a county parking citation, similar to that used in many cities, would greatly reduce the number of man hours needed to address parking disputes in the county. About 80,000 Boone County residents, roughly two-thirds of the population, live in unincorporated areas. As a result, the sheriff’s department is a county agency dealing with parking problems more common in a medium-size city. Lt. Col. Rob Reuthe of the Boone County Sheriff’s Department said the county needs a method of enforcement that better addresses parking disputes common in residential areas. “We have no tools currently to move those cars unless we go and search the people out, hope that they are home, knock on the door and actually make contact,” Reuthe said. “The reality (is that), if we actually find the person, the minimum that they are going to pay is $143 in court costs, plus the actual fine. That’s a whole lot for somebody to pay who makes a mistake about where they park.” Most county parking complaints

originate in Burlington, Hebron and unincorporated areas around Florence, which are not cities, but have a similar residential and commercial composition. The proposed ordinance would include a lower, graduated penalty structure and a more streamlined method of collection common in municipalities. Violators would be issued a citation with a $30 civil penalty for a first or second offense within a one-year period. Subsequent citations issued within that time would include a $60 penalty. A citation that is unsuccessfully contested, however, could include a $500 civil penalty. Violators would also be required to pay towing and storage charges, if applicable. A five-member Boone County Parking Violation Hearing Board, consisting of county residents not elected or appointed to a county office and who do not work for the Fiscal Court, would rule on contested violations. The person who is issued a citation would have 14 days to pay the penalty or request a hearing to contest the ticket. Reuthe said there will be a public information campaign prior to the implementation of the ordinance. “We do anticipate a warning phase if the ordinance is passed,” Reuthe said. “We’ll go for a period of time and put out some pretty good warnings and educate the public about the responsibilities for parking.”

Officials probe 4 apartment fires By Brenna R. Kelly bkelly@nky.com

FLORENCE — Authorities are investigating four fires that were set at two Florence apartment complexes last month. Three of the fires occurred within two hours on Feb. 17, the fourth happened Feb. 18, said Florence Police Capt. Linny Cloyd. The fires were all set in publicly accessible areas at the Parkland Apartments and the Walnut Creek apartments, which are less than a mile apart on Florence’s east side. Fire officials would not say how the fires were started. “Obviously it’s of great concern,” said Florence Fire Chief Marc Muench. “We’re working together with the police department to keep an eye on things.” “The first fire occurred about 9:35 p.m. Friday at the Parkland Apartments on Dixie Highway. The second fire was reported at 10:23 p.m. at the Walnut Creek apartments on Shenandoah Drive. The third fire was back at Parkland about 11:38 p.m. Then on Feb. 18 another fire was set at about 9:30 p.m. at the Walnut Creek apartments. That fire was set in a storage area, Muench said. “The fire on Saturday night was significant,” he said. The fire was set in a first-floor storage room in

the three-story building. The fire spread to the second-floor apartment leaving it uninhabitable, he said. Ten other units in the 23unit building suffered smoke and water damage. Residents of those units were expected to move back in a few days, Muench said. A damage estimate was not available, he said. No one was injured in the fires, authorities said. Two Florence detectives who are part of the Boone County Fire Investigation Team have interviewed “persons of interest” in the case, but no arrests have been made, Cloyd said. Police have increased patrols at the complex and also have plain clothes officers checking the buildings, he said. Walnut Creek manager Heather Tackett said she could not comment Feb. 20 about the fires. “We are working with our residents, they are our number one priority,” she said. Representatives from Parkland Apartments could not be reached for comment. Police ask that residents report any suspicious activity to Boone County dispatch at 859-371-1234. Anyone with information about the fires is asked to call Florence Police at 859-6475420 or Crimestoppers at 513-352-3040.

TANK: Ridership is up 9 percent

World Day of Prayer to be observed

By Stephanie Salmons

Community Recorder

Most passengers use bus to get to work ssalmons@nky.com

BURLINGTON — Boone Coun-

ty Fiscal Court members received a mid-year update from a local transportation authority. Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky general manager Andrew Aiello paid a visit to the Feb. 21 Fiscal Court meeting to “bring you up to speed on where we are with the public transit system,” he said. TANK, Aiello said, is focused on the economy. Primarily 75 percent of passengers are going to or from work, he said. TANK has also expanded programs with schools like Gateway Community and Technical College and Northern Kentucky University, adding an additional 350,000 trips to school, he said. “Jobs have picked up as we’ve seen in the last year, fuel prices have increased and that has resulted in more demand for the system over the last 12 months,” Aiello said. Currently, TANK is in the 13th continuous month of “month over month ridership gain,” he said. “There is seasonal fluctuation in ridership but when you

Passengers line up to board a TANK bus in the Covington bus garage last year. FILE PHOTO look at it month to month we’re at about a 9 percent gain for the year,” Aiello said. This year has started off well, which is something Aiello said he hopes to see continue through out 2012, though employment and fuel prices are two main drivers of demand. As a result of increased ridership, revenue from ridership is also up, he told commissioners. Costs are up slightly on the service side while fringe costs and service costs internal to the TANK organization are down, he

said. At this point, TANK is “slightly below” budget for the year “and we’re encouraged by that,” Aiello said. “And even as fuel prices continue to creep up, we’re hopeful we’ll maintain below budget for the rest of the fiscal year.” According to Aiello, TANK tries to offset increasing health care, fuel and personnel costs by looking internally first. “The biggest cost savings we’ve seen over the last 12 months is our approach to our

fringes,” he said. “We’ve made some very tough decisions in respect to health care in terms of our employee benefit package.” According to Aiello, TANK’s benefit package is getting “closer to a private sector model of health care than we’ve ever been in the past.” Because TANK and its employees are not part of the state retirement system or state pension system, they’ve been able to make adjustments to its own “modest, self-funded pension” to respond to economic conditions, he said. Because there was interest from all three fiscal courts in TANK generating more revenue to cover operation costs, they did a peer analysis and identified places where the fare was below the fares of its peers, he said. Effective Jan. 1, TANK increased several of its fares, which should have a net revenue increase of about $175,000 a year, he said. According to Aiello, TANK will continue to do what it can to attract riders to the system and work with employers, especially those in Boone County. “We’ve had a lot of dialogue with a lot of employers here about meeting workforce needs, he said. “We’ll continue to do that.”

The Tri-City unit of Church Women United (CWU) will host the annual World Day of Prayer from 2-4 p.m. Sunday, March 4, at Hebron Lutheran Church, 3140 Limaburg Road. World Day of Prayer is a worldwide movement of many faith traditions coming together annually in March to observe a common day of prayer. Each year a different country serves as the writer of the World Day of Prayer worship service. For 2012, the women of Malaysia have written the service around the theme “Let Justice Prevail.” The theme was chosen to remind all that harmony as a people is rooted in peace, and to welcome that just governance is the basis for harmony in the social order. The event is free. For more information, visit www.wdp-usa.org or call Joan Morgan at 859-525-7599.

Judge-exec: Unified dispatch at least 2 years away By Cindy Schroeder cschroeder@nky.com

Leaders in Boone, Kenton and Campbell counties are likely “at least two years away” from deciding the fate of a regional 911 emergency dispatch system, Kenton Judge-executive Steve Arlinghaus predicted. “We’re still probably, I’d say, at least two years away from having some kind of a solid proposal about how to move forward, about what the best idea is,” Arlinghaus told the Fiscal Court at the Feb. 21 informal caucus meeting. For several months, local county government staff and public safety officials have held separate meetings – one group discussing the logistics involved in a joint emergency dispatch system for the three Northern Kentucky counties and another studying the possible consolida-

tion of the three dispatch centers within Kenton County. Currently, Erlanger, Covington and Kenton County have their own dispatch centers. This week, Kenton County should move another step closer to figuring out whether or not to combine its three dispatch centers. Finance directors from Covington, Erlanger and Kenton County are meeting then to review the data that’s been collected on the costs of a Kenton County-wide emergency dispatch center. “We believe that we have formulated 95 percent to 98 percent of the true costs of the complete operation of a single dispatch center (within Kenton County),” Arlinghaus said....” Basically we’re looking for all three entities to bless the numbers.” In the past, disputes about ever-changing cost estimates for a countywide dispatch cen-

ter and distrust about those figures “have been a big part of the problem” in reaching agreement on consolidation of the three 911 dispatch centers within Kenton County, Arlinghaus said. “That being said, I’ve instructed (retired treasurer) Ivan (Frye) from the very beginning to nail this thing down as solidly as possible with the numbers ... so that we’re comfortable presenting those,” Arlinghaus said. If the three finance directors agree on the costs, county officials will then present that information to the mayors at the next regular meeting of the Kenton Mayors Group on March 17. After the Feb. 21 meeting, Arlinghaus said that he doesn’t expect an immediate answer from the mayors when the costs are presented. Even so, he said he’s confident a countywide 911 dispatch system could be opera-

tional by fall The proposed costs for a Kenton County-wide 911 dispatch system would offer a number of options, should some cities opt out of a countywide system. “If one city or two cities or three cities or whatever should decide to opt out of a single dispatch center (within Kenton County) we could take those line items out and delete those individual cities and we could then move forward with what the costs would be for the remaining cities,” Arlinghaus said. Once the numbers “are on the table,” then the various government leaders can decide how to proceed, he said. In any consolidation of dispatch service, the goal is to save taxpayers money without compromising safety. The declining popularity of land-based telephone lines has left many local governments with decreasing

revenues, but increasing 911 service costs. One of the things that’s no secret in the proposal is that each entity has been subsidizing their (dispatch) system,” Arlinghaus said. “The county, we estimate by the time we plug in all the real numbers ... (has) probably operated at a loss of about $600,000 to $650,000 annually. The city of Covington’s operating loss is in the neighborhood of $850,000 annually.” In the Kenton County suburbs. Erlanger recently gave leaders of the governments it serves “a catchup bill” to make up for the difference in the cost of operating its dispatch center, Arlinghaus said. “I don’t know all the cities’ breakdowns of who has to come up with how much money, but I know the city of Fort Mitchell, for example, was $14,000 or $15,000 low,” Arlinghaus said.

The $6,000 study was to help determine the best use of zoning, incentives and other issues for long-

range planning in the Mall Road area. “It’s still an auto-oriented retail district, and we need to Wice protect what makes it work,” said zoning services director Kevin Wall. Key changes that could come from the study include the inclusion of resi-

dential areas above the ground floor of businesses, moving the development of buildings closer to the road with parking in the rear and on the sides and changing the maximum height of buildings from 50 feet to 80 feet in some areas. “I’m particularly pleased we’ve reduced the restrictions so business owners can come in and use their imaginations,” said council member Mel Carroll.

The study recommends making Connector Road on the west side of Mall Road more identifiable and cohesive. Plans also include increasing pedestrian access throughout the area. Increasing pedestrian areas is a proactive response to pedestrians already using Mall Road even when there aren’t safe places to walk. It’s an example of how the Planning Commission took careful note of feedback,

Carroll said. “The planners have listened to council and the business community,” he said. The study isn’t a guarantee of anything happening, but instead it serves as a blueprint for the direction of Mall Road, said Josh Wice, Florence’s business/ community development director. “It’s a plan for both the short term and long term goals,” Wice said.

The study does add some additional requirements when it comes to building materials and certain kinds of signage, but opens up new opportunities, such as the reduction in required parking spaces needed for developments, and a further reduction when multi-level parking structures are built. The entire study can be viewed on the Boone County Planning Commission’s website.

Dream bedrooms becoming a reality By Amy Scalf ascalf@nky.com

CRESTVIEW HILLS — A special fundraiser will take place on Sunday, March 4, at Charming Charlie on Town Center Boulevard. The Crestview Hills Town Center accessories store will host a fundraiser for Special Spaces Cincinnati beginning at 6:30 p.m. Attendees will pay $5 admission, receive 20 percent off purchases and will be eligible for giveaways. Special Spaces Cincinnati is the local chapter of a national nonprofit organization that provides oneday bedroom makeovers for children facing lifethreatening illnesses. More information on Special Spaces and its 21 local chapters can be found at www.specialspaces.org. The Cincinnati chapter was formed in October 2011 and has already completed rooms for four children in the Greater CincinnatiNorthern Kentucky area, including 2-year-old Maverick Delape, who lives with his dad, Steve, in Independence. The organization turned Maverick’s room into a vintage car service garage in October. His bed appears to

be part of a truck pulling into the service station. The toddler is recovering from kidney cancer, has had one kidney removed and endured treatments including chemotherapy. “Upon entering the room, Maverick’s eyes got very wide, and his dad said, ‘I knew it was going to be great, but this is so much better than I expected,’” said Special Spaces Cincinnati director Jennifer Chamberlin. She said each bedroom costs about $3,000, including new paint, furniture, trimwork, lighting, closet systems, custom-made bedding and window treatments and decor funded solely by contributions from supporters. “As a newer nonprofit organization in the area, our fundraising efforts are very grass-roots oriented and we are basically raising funds one room at a time. Our goal is to receive grant, corporate and ongoing community contributions in order to fill our schedule with kids and not have to worry about having enough money to make their dream bedroom come to life,” said Chamberlin. “There is no other organization like Special

Spaces in the Cincinnati area,” she said. “Realizing that these children need comfortable and inspirational private spaces while they go through rigorous treatment, appointments and emotional stress, our mission is to provide them with that special space where they can truly rest and not think about being sick.” During the makeover, the child and his or her family are sent out for the day, and the child’s siblings each receive a care package.

New Perceptions celebrating 60 years By Libby Cunningham Lcunningham@nky.com

EDGEWOOD — It’s been 60 years since New Perceptions opened and in that time the Edgewood organization that helps people with disabilities gain independence has helped children achieve new highs in their lives. So on March 7 these children, as well as all of the people New Perceptions has helped, will be honored at the Our Children Achieve luncheon at the Drees Hall Pavilion in Devou Park. In the past the luncheon has showcased one child with special needs during the luncheon, said development director Debbie Fulkerson. But this year they’re doing something different.

“What we are doing is bringing back the past four parents to give an update on their children and share that information with the people that attend,” she explained. Each year people come to the luncheon to see a new success story, Fulkerson said, but this year’s new format of providing updates on the past honorees will show continuing growth. “It’s such a feel-good type of story, that people get to see children who many would’ve thought ‘Oh they’ll never be able to do this or have any type of success,’” she said. But they have, so the group is celebrating. Anyone interested can RSVP by emailing tmeenach@new perceptions.org or calling 859-344-9322.

The announcement

By Justin B. Duke jbduke@nky.com

FLORENCE — Family style Italian meals are coming to the Florence Mall. The mall announced Feb. 15 on Facebook that Buca di Beppo is opening in the mall this summer. Buca di Beppo is a Minnesota-based chain with more than 80 restaurants nationwide, including one in Cincinnati's Rookwood

comes after a big year of new stores in the mall including Aerie, rue 21 and Skechers. "We do expect another exciting year as we continue our efforts to bring new and exciting retailers and services to Florence Mall," Comte said. Buca di Beppo is the second restaurant in the mall's 2012 plans. The food court recently opened Pholicious, a rice, noodle and soup dishes.

FLORENCE — Florence Baptist Church at Mt. Zion has called Dr. Corey Abney to be the next senior pastor. Abney, a native of Dayton, Ohio, follows Dr. Tim Alexander, who served as senior pastor for 27 years. He most recently served as teaching pastor at Highview Baptist Church in Louisville. He previously served as pastor of two churches in the Louisville area. Abney earned a bachelor’s degree from Cedarville University and a Master of Divinity and Doctor of Philosophy from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville. He has served the Kentucky Baptist Convention

as a member of the executive board and as a past president of the Pastors’ Conference. He and his wife, Christina, have four children, Caroline, Cameron, Catherine and Corey Jr. “I am humbled by the opportunity to follow Dr. Tim Alexander in leading the people of Florence Baptist Church at Mt. Zion,” Abney Abney said in a statement. “His legacy of faithful pastoral leadership and vision has positioned the church to reach Northern Kentucky and the world in an unprecedented way. I look forward to being a part of what God

is doing at Florence Baptist Church at Mt. Zion.” Alexander will transfer pastoral responsibility during Abney’s installation in a “Looking Back … Reaching Forward” service at 10:30 a.m. Sunday, March 11. Abney will preach for the first time as pastor at 8 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. March 18. According to Alexander, “Dr. Abney’s credentials are impeccable. His spiritual giftedness, his educational preparedness, and his practical experience leading Southern Baptist Churches in accomplishing their biblically appointed mission is unparalleled in any other young leader that I know.” Over the past year, Dr. Adam Greenway has served as interim pastor.

Petersburg resident’s photo on display Community Recorder

"Hills of Home," a composite digital image by Bruce Wess of Petersburg, will be on display in the exhibit "About Face: Kentucky Artisan Works Inspired by the Human Face," at the Kentucky Artisan Center at Berea March 3 through Aug. 26. THANKS TO GWEN HEFFNER

Bruce Wess of Petersburg will have a photograph on display in the new exhibit “AboutFace:KentuckyArtisan Works Inspired by the Human Face,” at the Kentucky Artisan Center at Berea. Wess’ photograph, titled “Hills of Home,” is a composite digital image made from two photographs. According to Wess’ artist statement, “The mountains of eastern Kentucky are known for their gentle beautyandtheindependentspirit of the mountain people. In this digital image I have combined a photograph of a sunrise in Harlan and Letcher counties with the face of a venerable mountain artisan – a chair maker. I faded the profile slightly to emphasize the intimate connection between a native Kentuckian

and the hills of home.” The exhibit features a wide range of works in which the human face is a central element, focal point or inspiration. Wess is one of 43 Kentucky artisans whose work will be displayed in the exhibit. Art mediums include photography, painting, fiber, clay, gourds, wood, bronze, collage and mixed-media with both realistic and abstract works. The exhibit will open March 3 and will be on display through Aug. 26. A public meet-the-artisans reception will be 1-3 p.m. Sunday, March 18, at the Kentucky Artisan Center at Berea, 200 Artisan Way. The center’s exhibits are open winter hours daily from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Admission is free. For more information, call 859-985-5448 or visit www.kentuckyartisan center.ky.gov.

Lawyer offering two scholarships By Stephanie Salmons Erlanger lawyer Ron Adams is again offering two scholarships to high school seniors. The third annual Lady Ruth Adams Memorial Scholarship Fund scholarship, named after Adams’ mother, is offered to a graduating senior who is the child of a fire fighter currently serving in Kenton, Boone, Campbell and Grant counties. “She always took good care of me,” Adams said of his mother. She was “such a giver,” which is why he decided to offer the scholarship to children of firefighters. “I think they (firefighters) tend to be givers or they wouldn’t do that job,” he said. The second annual W. Ron Adams Success with Disabilities Scholarship Fund scholarship is offered to a 2012 graduating senior with a disability. Adams, paralyzed after a coal mining accident when he was 19, added this scholarship last year. Those applying should have proof from a doctor or other certified professional explaining the disability. “We just want to make sure these kids know about these scholarships,” the law firm’s chief develop-

WV Schools accepts bids for final renovations By Justin B. Duke jbduke@nky.com

WALTON — The major renovations for Walton-Verona Schools are getting their final touches. The board of education approved contracts for renovation of the bathrooms in Walton-Verona Elementary and replacement of doors and hardware in Walton-Verona Elementary

School. The district budgeted $275,000 for the two projects and after bids came in, the work will cost just under $200,000. “We hit that sweet spot,” said Ehmet Hayes, the district’s architect. The projects will renovate some of the few parts of each building that haven’t gotten attention since the buildings were

originally built, said Superintendent Bill Boyle. The middle school doors have been in place since the school opened in 1953. Over the years, they’ve been painted several times which makes them difficult to close. “There’s about 12 coats of paint on the doors and it’s a mess,” Boyle said. Because the doors are so old,

they’re nearly impossible to repair, he said. “We can’t even buy parts for the internal workings,” Boyle said. The bathrooms in Walton-Verona Elementary contain the original fixtures from the school’s 1971 opening. Hundreds of kids using the bathrooms every day for four decades have left the bathrooms

in need of an update, Boyle said. “Over the years, they’ve become a little rough,” he said. Once the two projects are complete, the district’s plan to improve all the buildings will be complete, Boyle said. “These project will be the end of the renovations,” he said.

Kelly Elementary art teacher Karla Hall and her students make cookie ornaments to raise money for medical supplies for a village in Ghana. THANKS TO ANNETTE ZOTTOLI

Kelly Elementary adopts village in Ghana By Justin B. Duke jbduke@nky.com

BURLINGTON — A summer class opened Karla Hall’s eyes and changed the heart of an entire school. Hall is Kelly Elementary’s art teacher. She took a class last summer about African art offered through Northern Kentucky University’s art education and anthropology departments. In the class, she studied under six artisans from Ghana. After spending weeks with the artisans, Hall learned about the conditions in the AgotimeAkpokofe village in Ghana. “Their library consisted of five books in a wooden crate,” Hall said. “Being a teacher, this broke my heart.” In the fall, Hall worked with the Boone County Public Library and other schools in the district to collect 14 cases of books to send over.

Hall started explaining what she’d learned over the summer with her students and they were eager to help. “They keep coming up with ways to collect money,” Hall said. Each student at Kelly adopted a similarly aged student in Ghana that they would collect school supplies for, and they’re preparing to ship over 26 cases of school supplies. “They’ve been wonderful,” Hall said. Students are now working on collecting medical supplies for the village. Before Christmas, students sold cookie ornaments to raise $300 for malaria medicine. Part of the fifth-grade curriculum is writing persuasive letters. Students wanted to use the assignment to write to doctors and dentists to get them to donate additional medical supplies.

“They wanted to write their family doctors,” Hall said. Later this year, students will work on an African art unit. After making their art, they will auction it off to help raise money to finish construction on the village’s school building. “We will finish that school,” Hall said. Spending the school year helping Ghana has been a rewarding experience, said fifthgrader Evan Hodges. “You really feel like you’re doing a good thing,” Hodges said. Seeing the tough situation children in Ghana face helps understand how good life is in the United States, he said. Anyone interested in donating money or items to the village can contact Hall at karla.hall@ boone.kyschools.us. For more about your community, visit www.NKY.com/burlington

School uses Eagle Eye to prevent bullying By Justin B. Duke jbduke@nky.com

BURLINGTON — The Burlington Elementary community got a full week of help learning how to prevent bullying. The school combined classroom activities, poster contests, presentations and guest speakers for adults to spread the message that bullying is not wanted in the school. Instead of focusing on the negative aspects of bullying, the week targeted positive qualities like character and citizenship that prevent bullying, said Bruce Cheser, one of the school’s guidance counselors. “Everything relates to bullying,” Cheser said. When organizing the week, school leaders wanted to use the

school’s mascot, which led to the “Eagle Eye.” Students are reminded the “Eagle Eye” is always watching them and looking for students going the extra mile to help other students. “At the end of the day, we identify five or six people who did something good,” Cheser said. Cheser’s been encouraged with how much students are talking about what they’re learning. “There’s been an overwhelmingly positive response from the kids and the community,” he said. To cap the week off, teachers and volunteers turned the school’s gym into a fun area full of different games themed around encouraging each other including “I Feel LikeBingo”andanEagleEyecornhole toss.

Jaguars enjoy 1st district title By James Weber jweber@nky.com

BOONE COUNTY — In its first year of existence, the Cooper High School boys basketball team went 0-7 against its three district rivals Conner, Ryle and Boone County, losing by an average of 40 points. Three years later, the Jaguars are not only in the Ninth Region Tournament for the first time in team history, but they are district champions as well after beating Boone 50-42 in the final Feb. 24. “It’s special,” said head coach Tim Sullivan. “What a great group of young men to be able to go to the regional with. When we took this job, we knew it would take us a while. We didn’t know how long, and to have this group of seniors to go out this way is very special.” The Jaguars took a record of 15-14 into the Ninth Region Tournament. They were set to play Dixie Heights in the first round Wednesday, Feb. 29. The winner gets Newport Central Catholic or Covington Catholic 1 p.m. Saturday in the semis. The final is 1 p.m. Sunday. “After working for four years, this is a big accomplishment,” said Cooper senior guard Cody Cook. “It will be crazy. I can’t wait for it.” To get there, the Jaguars beat Conner for the third time in four

meetings this season, 63-51 in the semifinals Feb. 22. Cook and fellow senior Alex Webster combined for 27 points in the win. Webster was on varsity for that first Cooper season as a freshman, when the team only won two games. He scored 11 early points against Boone and 17 for the game. “It starts with Alex Webster,” Sullivan said. “He keeps these guys grounded. He’s really stepped it up, he knows there’s no tomorrow. He has taken our guys to another level.” Against Conner, Cook sparked the Jaguars, hitting three three-pointers in the first period to stake the Jags to a 13-2 lead. Cooper never looked back against the Cougars, who were missing leading scorer Sam Hemmerich to injury. “That was huge,” said junior center Louis Maniacci. “He couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn during warmups but he came out firing and really got us up.” The Jaguars had a businesslike mindset afterward, immediately focusing on winning the district championship, and that attitude ultimately paid off. Sullivan, who was on the Holmes staff for several state tourney trips, said a big key this week is getting his team prepared for the college atmosphere at NKU, including the bigger floor. He said he would try to

Cooper sophomore wins state titles UNION — Cooper sophomore Sharli Brady made Kentucky and Cooper history Feb. 25.

The Recorder will have more on Brady in next week’s edition. Ryle senior Meredith Brownell finished second in the state diving meet.

JAMES WEBER/THE COMMUNITY RECORDER get into a college for practice early in the week. Boone (24-7) had a major scare from Ryle before prevailing 62-56 in the semis. The Rebels won their 24th game, which was 17 more than Ryle. But both of their previous meetings this year resulted in two-point Rebel wins, so they expected a fight from their rivals. “They always give us their best game and we come back with ours,” said senior guard

Chase Stanley. “They have good players, too.” The Rebels will play in the regional for the fourth straight season. They play Holmes in the first round 6 p.m. Thursday, March 1. The winner faces Lloyd or Highlands in the second semifinal 2:30 p.m. Saturday. The Rebels were known for scoring a lot of points early in the season, but have become stronger at the half-court game in recent weeks.

By James Weber BOONE COUNTY — She was coming off probably the best half of her career. But instead of forcing shots to break personal records after that, Courtney Sandlin took what the defense gave her in the second half and made sure the whole team was involved. The result was an 80-66 win for her Walton-Verona girls basketball team over Simon Kenton in the 32nd District final Feb. 23 at Grant County. It was the third straight title for the Bearcats (26-6). “It feels good,” said Sandlin, a junior forward. “It’s a three-peat so it felt good to come out and win again.” W-V, the defending champs, was set to play Collins in the Eighth Region quarterfinals 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at Anderson County. The winner plays Owen County or Oldham County in the semis 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 2. The final is 7 p.m. Saturday, March 3. Sandlin had 23 of her gamehigh 29 points in the first half as both teams played at a break-

neck pace. Walton led 29-14 after one period and 48-32 at halftime. Sandlin had 12 points in the first quarter and11in the second. Her field goals were a mixture of her driving from the free-throw lane and either laying it in or putting back her own miss, or getting behind a defender to take a well-timed post entry pass from a guard. “With a lot of help from my teammates,” she said. “I worked hard to get open, but without

them getting me the ball I wouldn’t have been able to score. Simon Kenton comes out and pressures us hard every time we play them, and for us to execute like we did was big for us.” Senior guard Kara Taulbee had eight points in the half, and senior guard Jenalee Ginn six as the Bearcats hit five three-pointers in the half as well. But the offense started with Sandlin. “She has played remarkable this year,” said head coach Mark

Clinker. “She stepped up today. It seems like the bigger the game, the better she plays.” W-V is the defending regional champion but faces a crowded field of strong contenders. “You’re going into the region on a high, but it doesn’t mean much outside of that,” coach Clinkenbeard said. “We’re going to play good team in the first round, it doesn’t really matter. We have to be ready to make that bus ride for three nights, and that’s what we plan on doing.” Ryle goes into the Ninth Region tourney with momentum after beating Boone County 54-41 in the 33rd District final. It was the first district title in Ryle team history. “It was great for the girls,” said Ryle head coach Patti Oliverio. “They got that feeling of winning the championship, and you come into the region on a high note. It was great.” Ryle (26-5) was set to play Dixie Heights in the first round of the regional Tuesday at NKU. The winner gets Notre Dame or Highlands. 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 2.

New subscription plan explained Here are a few examples of things you know or understand because an Enquirer journalist was on the job: » That Cincinnati police often start police chases that violate their own policies. » More school districts than ever are closing school buildings because of the recession. They used to only close buildings if enrollment fell. » About half the companies that received state tax money didn’t create the jobs they promised. » The biggest pot of federal stimulus money for our region paid for the new Duke Energy electric meter system. The stimulus program here protected thousands of jobs for a couple years but it’s unclear that it created many. I could go on and on. I hope the community never takes for granted the Enquirer storytellers who touch our consciences and prompt people to act -- journalists like Krista Ramsey and Michael Keating. This week, Gannett announced that its news organizations, including the Enquirer, will move to a paid subscription model in the next year. It is important to change our business model as technology and your behavior changes. You have been accustomed to paying

It doesn’t take a Fortune 500 chief financial officer to see that isn’t sustainable. Some of you commented this week that you can get content elsewhere. Well, the most important work we do for you is not something others are producing. And nobody does this work for free. We pay well more than 100 journalists to do things no one else does.

Bills to protect Ky. families progressing Greetings from Frankfort! Well folks after a slow start, a number of bills introduced to protect Kentucky families from runaway government spending, substance abuse related crimes and restrain government spending began moving through the Kentucky Legislature last week. House Bill 413 was introduced by House GOP Caucus Chair Dr. Bob DeWeese of Louisville, providing for an amendment to the Kentucky Constitution to suspend legislative compensation in the event the legislature does not fulfill its constitutional responsibility to adopt a balanced budget. Introducing the bill DeWeese said he has become increasingly frustrated when the legislature consistently walks away from its constitutional responsibility to pass a balanced budget. He has always said there needs to be consequences for bad behavior and withholding compensation for members in a “Special Session” to balance the budget appears to be an effective way of getting the members to put their priorities in order. House GOP Whip Danny Ford introduced House Bill 418 which would require the county attorney to post a statement on the deed of any property utilized in the manufacturing of methamphetamine. The statement could be removed from the deed once certification of a cleanup of the house or structure has been completed. Ford frequently reminds members the meth crisis touches every corner of this commonwealth and it is appropriate for the legislature to take steps to protect unsuspecting purchasers from the potential negative effects of purchasing contaminated property. HB 377, which is legislation I am sponsoring that deals with

Tamper Resistant Opioids, passed the House Health and Welfare Committee. I won’t pretend that HB 377 is some type of silAddia ver bullet, but Wuchner rather is anothCOMMUNITY er tool to comRECORDER GUEST COLUMNIST bat prescription narcotic drug abuse that is taking a toll on Kentucky families. When the prescribing health care professional determines it is in the best interest to order FDA-approved opioids like OxyContin, Opana, or other opioid products that incorporates tamper-resistant technologies this legislation would prohibit the unauthorized substitution for one that does not. Most importantly this legislation is about saving lives. Too many lives lost, too many futures destroyed and too many children suffer from the destructive effect on their young lives. The past few weeks I have been receiving lots of calls on two issues: Senate Bill 50, which is the pseudoephedrine bill, and possibly amending the Kentucky Constitution to allow the expansion of gaming in Kentucky under Senate Bill 151. This past Thursday the Kentucky State Senate ended the debate on the issue of expanded gaming for the 2012 session. SB Bill 151 was defeated by a vote of 16 members voting in favor and 21 voting in opposition. It would have taken 23 votes in the affirmative to pass the constitutional amendment bill on to the House for consideration. State Rep. Addia Wuchner, R-Burlington, is a member of the Kentucky House of Representatives.

Senate’s busiest weeks up ahead Last week the General Assembly reconvened on Feb. 21, after observing Presidents Day, and returned to our legislative work. This is the beginning of the second half of the legislative session and it promises to bring the busiest weeks up ahead. I had the fortunate opportunity to have visitors from a large group of homeschoolers from the Northern Kentucky Classical Conversations program, which offers the concentration of American history. I was impressed by their knowledge and ability to recite such historical documents that our great country was founded on. My hope is that such programs, like Classical Conversations, will inspire similar curriculums and equal success. I would like to give a special thank you for the great work of Tricia Spargo, educator from the program and resident of Boone County. Fiscal responsibility is critical now more than ever with the

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Join study of Constitution

Who is trampling on our Constitution? Come to think of it, what is the Constitution and why do our politicians call themselves constitutionalist? If they fully understood the Constitution, and that is a big “if,” why do they think they can ignore it? It is my belief that the Constitution is the supreme law of the land, uniting us as one people as we play by the same rules consistently. Yet, many politicians choose to use the Constitution only to satisfy their particular arguments. Well, let’s take them to task and learn more about the Constitution than those who propose to be experts. It is time the common man “take over and rid ourselves” of many career politicians to become more knowledgeable, confident, comfortable and more grounded in our rights – not what many individuals say they are. Remember the Declaration of Independence ... unalienable rights? God given rights ring a bell? We have found a solution. Learn with us the Federalist Papers. I know you have probably heard of these somewhere along the way but have long ago relegated them to a dusty book shelf. In essence, if the Constitution is your computer, the Federalist Papers is the manual that should have been in the box. Now is you chance to do something other than sit at the coffee shop and complain about the erosion of your rights. Think about joining a group of concerned citizens, just like you, to learn about the Federalist Papers. It’s a painless, free experience as we spend 15 minutes each week on one paper prior to a Grassroots Tea party meeting, teaching ourselves how the papers impact our lives and their relevance for today. We meet at 6 p.m. Mondays at Sub-station II on Dream Street, Florence. We have a “soap box” with your name on it. It’s your opportunity to speak up.

WALTON MUSICIAN CLOSE TO FULFILLING DREAM

By Mark Hansel mhansel@nky.com

WALTON — The trip from this small Boone County town to Nashville, Tenn., only takes about five hours. The journey from small town musician to Music City recording artist is typically a much longer road. Walton native Troy Brooks, however, is poised to make that leap. He has been working on his first album for more than a year and will head into the studio in a few weeks to begin laying down tracks. Brooks was back in Northern Kentucky recently after playing a few dates in Ohio and talked about the upcoming album and his career to this point. “My album is not going to be traditional country,” Brooks said. “It’s a little more bluesy. It’s going to be me, my drummer and my regular bass player, but we’re going to produce it ourselves.”

His influences include Stevie that guitar up again and I’m just Ray Vaughn, Eric Clapton and not going to say any more about Kenny Wayne Shepherd.

to get a job right away. The only person I knew was a guy I went to high school with, so I moved in with him in Murfreesboro, which is 30 minutes outside of the city,” Brooks spent time in the nightclub district known as Printer’s Alley in downtown Nashville and caught a break when some local musicians took notice and asked him to sit in with them. Brooks was eventually playing about five nights a week, but found he still had a lot to learn. The biggest evolution has been with his songwriting. “I just realized how much I didn’t have a grasp on songwriting before I moved there,” Brooks said. “I thought I did, but when I got there, I just started completely from scratch. To me, the melody is the song, but in Nashville country music has a story, and I had to learn how to write a great story that fit the melody” Brooks has played with country music stars John Rich, formerly of the duo Big and Rich, and Joe

Nichols and talked music for hours with Toby Keith and a group of other local musicians one evening. “That happens a lot in Nashville,” Brooks said. “Guys come in to the local bars to check out shows and just sit in with the band.” Brooks spent more than a year writing songs for the album because he knows artists don’t always get a second chance. “I don’t want to be (in Nashville) for three years and have an album that doesn’t reflect the work I’ve done,” Brooks said. While Brooks enjoys performing in the Nashville clubs, he would gladly leave it behind. “I know I don’t want to do this the rest of my life,” Brooks said. “I’m grateful for the opportunities I’ve had, but you are really just getting by. There is no way I could support a family the way I want to with what I’m doing right now.” The first album by the Troy Brooks Band is targeted for release in the spring.

Friendships keep Schadler, 85, working By Chris Mayhew cmayhew@nky.com

EDGEWOOD — For 65 years Alexandria resident Ed Schadler has worked as a State Farm Insurance agent – and retiring isn’t in his plans. Schadler, 85, spends his days at his Edgewood office where he calls many of the longstanding policyholders he’s worked with for decades by the name “friend.” “He just keeps going, and he’s here every day,” said Lisa Michele Pulaski, a multiple line representative in Schadler’s office. "He still has a couple of customers that were with him when he started in 1948 from Campbell County," she said.

Schadler said he received his first license Feb. 1, 1948, and that he is the longest-serving State Farm agent in Kentucky. Schadler earlier served as a member of the U.S. Merchant Marine during World War II. Schadler said he came back to Northern Kentucky and made about $500 “gross” in 1948 minus office and travel expenses. Among the about 18,000 working State Farm agents, Schadler said he is either the second or third longest-serving. Schadler is one of nine people working at his office at 998 Dudley Road. There are three people, including his son Larry, who have worked for him for more than 25 years, Schadler said. Larry, Schadler’s office manager, has been working with

his father for 37 years. The Edgewood office, open since 1980, is only Schadler's second location. "I moved the office location one time from downtown Covington in the Coppin’s Building," he said. "It was in room 608." The Coppin’s Building, 638 Madison Ave., was operated as a store of the same name from 1909 to 1977 and is Covington’s city hall today. Schadler wants to stay active and has no interest in retiring. "I could take something up as a hobby, but I've got so many friends," he said. "I could tell my staff to call 500 people, say I wanted to have a cup of coffee with them and they'd likely say 'yes.’"

Maple syrup spices up chunky granola mix

It’s maple syrup time! When our boys were little we drilled a hole in one of our sugar maples, put a homemade spile in it, and hung a bucket to gather what we knew would be gallons of sap. Well, something wasn’t right with our process Rita and we got Heikenfeld just dribRITA’S KITCHEN bles. After that experience, I decided the grocery was my best source for pure maple syrup. Since I have so many reader requests, I’m using column space for those instead of several recipes.

Rita’s Can’t-Quit-Eating Chunky Maple Granola

granola, adding dry milk, extra honey, you name it, without success. Leave it to Cook’s Illustrated to develop a technique that works. Here’s my adaptation. Don’t get timid about adding flax and chia seeds. They’re optional, but huge sources of Omega 3, the chia in particular, and are really tasty. It’s easy to eat, being chunky and all, thus the name. I’m going to try this technique with my other granola recipes. Check out my blog at Cincinnati.com for step-by-step photos. Coating:

⁄3 cup pure maple syrup (I used Kroger Private Selection) 1 ⁄3 to ½ cup packed dark brown sugar ¼ teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon vanilla ½ teaspoon almond extract ¼ cup soybean or canola oil ¼ cup olive oil 1

Granola: Mix together

For years I’ve been trying to make chunky

5 cups old-fashioned rolled

oats 2 tablespoons flax seeds (optional) ¼ cup chia seeds (optional) 2 cups sliced or slivered almonds

Add after baking: 2 cups dried cherries (optional)

Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray. Preheat oven to 325. Whisk syrup, sugar, salt and extracts together, then whisk in oils. Pour over oat mixture and mix. Pour onto cookie sheet with sides in thin, even layer and press mixture down until very compact. That’s the key to chunky granola. Bake 35-40 minutes, rotating pan halfway through. Remove and cool to room temperature. Break into desired chunks. Stir in fruit. Tips: Use favorite nuts and fruit, or no fruit. Use light brown sugar, and all canola or soybean

oil. Omit almond extract and increase vanilla to 4 teaspoons.

Le Boxx Café’s chicken chili for Thelma and several other readers who can’t get enough of this spicy chili. I stopped and talked with Dave Armstrong, proprietor, who couldn’t share the recipe. His chef, Franklin, makes 10 gallons about every other day. It’s that popular. “Lots of chicken breast, canned black-eyed peas, chili powder, chicken base, heavy cream, celery, onions, yellow and red bell peppers, and jalapeños,” he said. His roux is butter and flour, and olive oil. Have a similar recipe?

Please share. Check out the chili – see how thick it is. I can attest to its “yummy factor.” I’m now addicted, too. Their Caribbean chicken is a close second. Like O’Charley’s broccoli cheese casserole for Sharon. Like Subway cookies. Easy punch recipes for Charlene, who made my punch recipe with ginger ale and iced tea. “Everyone loved it.” She needs easy ones like this for a women’s club. Cinnamon coffecake like Thriftway grocery for Rose of Cold Springs. “Also roll recipes with coconut or peanuts and icing.” Substitution for almond or rice milk in baking for Carol, who is lactose intolerant. “These milks don’t work well,” she said. Like Mount Washington Bakery & Creamy Whip cinnamon squares. I get requests for items from this iconic bakery all

the time. The squares have been topping the list. For a reader who thought this bakery closed. The reader said: “I’ve tried Graeter’s and other bakeries, but they just don’t taste the same.” I spoke with Nick Ganim, owner, and he assured me they are still operating but closed until April (it's a combo bakery and creamy whip) and when he re-opens in April the cinnamon squares, along with all cookies, etc., will be available. Call ahead to set some aside. Nick uses yeasted Danish dough for cinnamon squares, so if you have a similar recipe, please share. Otherwise, you can always enjoy them at this Mount Washington treasure. Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator and author.

Walton proud of Ladycat district champs The Walton-Verona Ladycats won the district tournament this past week against Simon Kenton 80-66. Katie Slavey, Kara Taulbee and Taylor Cornelison received academic awards from the district. Molly Clinkenbeard, Kara Taulbeee and Courtney Sandlin were named to the all-tournament team, with Sandlin being the tournament MVP. Let’s support and encourage our WVHS Ladycats basketball team, who were scheduled to face Martha Layne Collins Academy at Anderson County in the regional tournament on Tuesday. Hopefully, we will hear they will be traveling to the state tournament. St. Joseph Academy is having its delicious fish on Friday eve-

ning during the Lenten season. For information you may call 4856444. Sorry to report that Joella Flynn suffered a broken shoulder and Ruth bruises this past Meadows Monday from an WALTON NEWS accident. Joella had stopped at the Family’s Main Street Restaurant and after getting out of her car, it started to roll backwards. She attempted to get to it and slipped on wet pavement, luckily not getting hit by the vehicle. Vehicle damages were reportedly minor. Hope to hear that Joella has a quick recovery and I am sure Dennis will be a great

caretaker. There are lots of signs in town stating the Urgent Care located by Kroger is opening soon. Irene Peebles is getting much better. After an evaluation on Friday, it was determined that she should remain in Health South until March 14. Fred “Butch” Spillman is in rehabilitation at Gateway in Florence. Addie King has been a patient at St. Elizabet, Florence suffering from spinal problems. She is scheduled to come home this week.

Five second rule – is it true? Have you ever heard someone talk of the “five second rule” when food is dropped on the floor? Or, have you been with someone who “double-dipped” a chip into a common bowl of dip? Studies have been done to determine how many bacteria are transferred in these situations. These poor practices are bad enough to spread disease-causing bacteria in quantities that could make us sick. Many people think that if food is picked up from the floor within five seconds of being dropped that it will be safe to eat. This “five second rule” is completely false. Re-

searchers at Clemson University studied sausage and bread dropped onto tile, wood, and Diane carpet Mason flooring. EXTENSION They found NOTES a large number of bacteria were transferred to both of these foods with all three types of floors. Yes, even for just five seconds. Additionally, many bacteria lived at least four weeks, even on dry floors. The solution: try to not drop food or discard it if

it is dropped. If you see someone dip a chip or other food into a shared bowl of sauce or dip, take a bite, then dip the chip or food back into the sauce you have witnessed “double dipping.” Clemson University professionals studied the effects of double dipping foods. They found the practice transfers a significant number of bacteria from the eater’s mouth to the remaining dip. Even if people turn the food around and dip with a part their mouths haven’t touched yet, the bacteria on their fingers can contaminate the food and then the dip. The solution: use indi-

It’s true that bugs follow bloom sequence Question: I have heard that certain bugs appear only when specific plants are in bloom. Is this true? Answer: It is true that certain insects are attracted to certain plants, but it is also true that there is a direct correlation between the bloom sequence of plants and the emergence of specific insects. This relationship is called “phenology.”

This Ordinance approves and adopts text amendments to Article 35 of the Boone County Zoning Regulations which were recommended to the City by the Boone County Planning Commission. Article 35 deals with Temporary Commercial Displays (TCD) and these text amendments include the following principal changes to the TCD program: Three basic tiers of TCDs would be permitted: (1) Exhibits or showing of goods which are ancillary to an existing business. The goods or services offered for sale must be of the general type displayed or sold by the permanent business on the premises, and must be listed as a principally permitted use in the C-l, C-2, or C-3 zone; and (2) The sale of certain seasonal goods such as Christmas trees, pumpkins, or seasonal plants, or off-premise auto dealer sales. This tier expressly prohibits the sale of fireworks of any type as a TCD; and (3) Temporary sales, displays, and/or events which are permitted pursuant to a previously approved concept development plan shall remain to be governed by the concept development plan. Seasonal TCDs would be eliminated altogether, and the number of permissible regular TCD permits would increase from three to five. The duration for each permit is 10 days. The amendments address signage related to TCDs and limit signage to a maximum of two temporary signs used in conjunction with the TCD. The types of temporary signs permitted to be used with a TCD include banners, boards and placard types, including real estate style signs. These signs shall not exceed 100 square feet in area, 10 feet in height if freestanding, and may not be placed on the roof of a tent or any other structure. Other types of temporary signs, such as banners attached to permanent signs or poles, inflatable devices, any type of portable signs, pennants, and streamers, light strings, balloons, and flags, may not be used with a TCD.

Troublesome sleep apnea can be cured By Pam Goetting Contributor

Is it simply snoring or something more? If your snoring is excessive, or you battle sleepiness during the day, it may be a sign of sleep apnea, according to Dr. James P. Maynard, a neurologist and medical director of the Sleep Disorders Centers at St. Elizabeth. Dr. Maynard, a Milwaukee native and graduate of the Medical School of Wisconsin, recently spoke to the Rotary Club of Florence. A relatively new science, sleep apnea means that you literally stop breathing while asleep. Medically speaking, your throat becomes blocked

by excess flesh, and you must wake up in order to breathe. The brain tells the body to Maynard wake up just enough to tighten the throat muscles and open the airway. This cycle can be repeated hundreds of times during the night, leading to daytime sleepiness, morning headaches, lack of energy and depression. Men are 2 ½ times more likely to suffer from sleep apnea, although Dr. Maynard commented that “their bed partners suffer, too!” Men with greater than a 17-inch neck size,

or women with 16 inches or greater, are at risk due to increased neck weight. “You may develop sleep apnea,” Dr. Maynard said with a smile, “because you’re just too short for your weight.” You may also experience sleep disorders if you are a restless sleeper. With each waking episode, the body produces an adrenaline surge, which then raises blood pressure, and contributes to an inability to fall back asleep. In addition, as we age, our neck muscles become less firm, and this can cause blockages that lead to restless sleep. How is sleep apnea treated? The good news is that it is 100 percent curable.
