During the Sept. 20, 2009 Knights of Columbus Opportunity Day, guests countdown to release balloons at the Knights’ grounds south of Alexandria. From left in front are parents Don and Gail Cecconi, with their son Neal, and Paul Middleton, 21, with his grandfather Ray Smith of Covington, waiting with camera in hand for the signal to let their balloons fly.

How to help

The annual Knights of Columbus’ Opportunity Day the parents and caretakers for children and adults with disabilities and special needs is Saturday, Aug. 18 near Alexandria. The Knights are seeking additional volunteers and corporate and private sponsors. For information about the event, visit the website www.kofcdejaco.org. it every year than I think the kids do,” Meyer said. The council is currently seeking additional volunteers, corporate sponsors and donations of money to help make this year’s event another success, he said. A donation of about $50 covers the cost of one child’s day at the Knights of Columbus’ grounds, Meyer

said. Many people who volunteer are tasked with jobs like escorting one or two guests around the grounds between activities ranging from hot air balloon and pontoon boat rides to dinner, a petting zoo and fishing. “We also have to have people to hand out prizes and help with games around the rides,” Meyer said. Deputy Grand Knight Mike Ward of Alexandria, who is also Alexandria’s chief of police, said his wife and two daughters come to volunteer. They spend the day taking a couple of children or adults around the property and spend the entire day with them including helping them sit down to dinner.

Each year there are around 250 people out volunteering from the five parishes in the council’s district including St. Mary in Alexandria and Sts. Peter & Paul in California, Ward said. Additionally, students from public schools like Campbell County High School come out and volunteer, he said. “It’s an incredible event, it’s a way to give caretakers a day of rest,” Ward said. Dave McGrath of Alexandria, chancellor of the council, regularly volunteers his own time and that of his five children ranging in age from 12 to 25. Bringing his family to Opportunity Day is a great way to instill morality and remind his family how lucky they are, he said. McGrath said it’s fun

It will take about one volunteer for each of the 150 or so disabled children and adults attending the annual Knights of Columbus’ Opportunity Day near Alexandria Sept. 18 to help make it a success. Father DeJaco Council 5220 has hosted the event around the group’s lake south of Alexandria for 28 years as a day of supervised fun for disabled children and adults, but also as a break for their caregivers, said Chris Meyer, Grand Knight of the council and event organizer. The event was first founded by Knights members including Larry Sendelbach of Cold Spring, who has a disabled daughter, Meyer said. “It’s a daunting task to take care of one of these special needs kids, so it was designed to give these parents a day off,” Meyer said. The parents and caregivers have the choice of either leaving, or staying and watching the person they brought have fun, he said. Meyer took over organizing the event from the Sendelbach family in recent years after being a regular volunteer for the event. Meyer said it’s fulfilling to share time with the special needs children and see them smile. “And the payoff for the volunteers, I get more out of

The state’s Department of Insurance is moving at a brisk pace to implement all the changes mandated by federal health insurance reform, department officials reported to lawmakers. “The passage of this bill has put a huge workload on the department,” Insurance Commission Sharon Clark told members of the Interim Joint Committee on Banking and Insurance. But, she said, staff have been working diligently and efficiently to protect consumers during the transition. All told, the department has projected it will need only eight additional staff to meet all the requirements of the federal plan, and all of them will be federally funded, time-limited jobs paid for through grants. Although some implementation timelines run until 2014, one deadline has already passed, Clark said. Kentucky has opted not to operate a new highrisk pool, instead allowing federal officials to operate the program. “We were seriously concerned about the adequacy of funding,” she said, because only $63 million was allocated for the pool’s operation. The state will continue to maintain its current highrisk pool, which pre-dated the new law, she added. Another pressure on the department is the set of restrictions on new health insurance plans, separate from grandfathered plans that were already written when the bill was signed into law March 23. The distinction means that different plans will be held to different standards depending on the length they’ve been in place. Many new restrictions will be enforced on all plans, including the ban on rescissions on the extension

McGrath said his children quickly realized that they were having fun spending the day with someone with a disability. “They all want to participate now,” he said.

Bank VP shaves head for United Way By Justin B. Duke jbduke@nky.com

A charity gained some money; a man lost some hair. Mark Exterkamp, executive vice president for Bank of Kentucky, won – or lost –

the company’s Big Wigs Give Their Fair Hair competition. The competition was a weeklong coin war where employees could donate to the United Way in jars for one of the company’s five executive vice presidents.

The owner of the jar with the most money would have his head shaved. The competition brought in close to $1,200 as part of the company’s $75,000 corporate donation drive. Exterkamp’s jar brought in more than $1,000. “It was a landslide,” said Diane Czerwonka, director of human resources. Exterkamp, a Fort Thomas resident, learned he

BRIEFLY Garbage truck crash kills Fort Thomas man

The crash of a garbage truck into a car in the early morning hours of Saturday, Aug. 28, killed a Fort Thomas man. Police have identified the man who was killed early Saturday when a garbage truck ran into his car on U.S. 27. Mark Foster, 40, of Fort

Thomas, died at the scene of the 3:30 a.m. crash, said Lt. George Schreiner. Foster had just left work at Sara Lee in Claryville and was stopped at the red light on northbound U.S. 27 at Viewpoint Drive when a Rumpke garbage truck rear-ended his car. The truck driver, Duane Yates, 57, of Georgetown, Ohio, told police he just looked

up and “there the car was,” Schreiner said. Because there were no skid marks before impact, police think that Yates may have momentarily dozed off just before the crash, Schreiner said. No charges have been filed but the Campbell County Major Accident Reconstruction Team is investigating the crash, he said. -The Enquirer

Nathan Brugger has designed and built a decorative and functional swinging gate commemorating the centennial of St. Philip Parish church and school in Melbourne. Brugger started designing the gate in March 2009, and with assistance from other parish families obtained the supplies and some welding expertise to help him finish the gate. Brugger said the gate’s final installation was in time for the Sunday, July 25 service and before his 18th birthday Aug. 25 – a requirement for Eagle Scout projects is for them to be completed by age 18. The gate was designed to match the black metal fencing used around St. Philip School, he said. There was a gap in the fence that needed a permanent fix after some wooden gates were tried to keep balls from the playground from rolling onto nearby Rt. 8, Brugger said. “I think one of the reasons for me choosing the gate project was during school hours when the kids are playing at recess, and the ball rolls down and they don’t want the kids running into the street,” he said. Brugger said he received help drawing and designing the fence from his friend’s dad, who is an architect, and from his own dad, who is an engineer.

Photo Provided Brugger said he sanded and cut the steel into sizes as needed himself. St. Philip Parish member Roger Brown, who has welding experience, put in a lot of time helping out, Brugger said. On each side of the gate there is a circular decorative seal with the St. Philip emblem with “1910” on one side celebrating the church’s centennial, and “Living Faith,” a motto of the church. Brugger said he’s been told his experience designing the gate will come in handy when applying for a co-op through college. A 2010 graduate of Bishop Brossart High School, Brugger will attend the University of Louisville in the fall where he will study civil

engineering. His father, Jerry said he wanted to make sure Nathan was supported in the process by him, but that he was able to take a back seat in the process because Nathan was never far off course. Jerry said he was impressed by Nathan’s willingness to exceed the necessary requirements for the project and learn about seeing a project through all of its steps. Nathan could have had enough service hours in by building the gates from prefabricated store-bought materials, Jerry said. “He wanted to learn the whole process so he wanted to literally undertake building the whole thing from the raw materials,” Jerry said.

Expansion means more room for Camel fans By Chris Mayhew cmayhew@nky.com

Campbell County Schools has added more room for Camels fans at high school football games including a new oasis area complete with a student-made desert mural. Bob Miller Stadium, located behind Campbell County Middle School in Alexandria, is a great place to watch a game, and a bigger area behind the seats was needed to accommodate the estimated 4,000 to 5,000 people attending each game, said Greg Rose of Alexandria, chairman of the Camel Athletic Boosters. Renovations have included paving what had been a gravel area underneath the stadium seats and painting a mural, Rose said. The ticket booth and a fence around the stadium area were also moved further out into the parking lot behind the school to create another area where people can congregate, he said. The newly opened area at the entrance of the stadium will serve as the location of the “Camel Kick-

Off Cookout and Rock The House” tailgate event from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 17. There will be music by a band of Campbell County High School students, “Dirty Tree Tribe 2” and hot dogs and soda on sale for $1. Kickoff to the game against Newport Central Catholic High School will be at 7:30 p.m. Tyler Shelton, a junior at the high school, painted a graffiti mural behind the stands, and also helped paint some new “mean” Camel heads on the doors of an off-the-field shed to create a more consistent camel logo throughout the stadium, Rose said. Overall, the new mural, logos and renovations give an upgrade to the facility built back in the 1940s, he said. All the efforts are about making Friday nights special by adding a little more brightness to the stadium area, Rose said. “We’re trying to create an atmosphere and area where it’s more than just a football game on Friday night, but an event, and make it the place to be,” he said.

Dr. Haik and her students base most of their research around the brain, specifically, developing models and treatments for neurological diseases, disorders and injuries. Their current projects include investigating uses of nanotechnology, Parkinson’s disease and heavy metal toxicity.

Helping communities

Last Saturday, nearly 200 entering Northern Kentucky University Chase College of Law students participated in a community service project that took them to various locations throughout Northern Kentucky. In its second year, the program requires that all firstyear law students perform a morning of public service for a number of local charitable organizations. The students braved the rain and humid weather and

spent the morning painting, cleaning, providing maintenance help, weeding, landscaping, sorting clothing and cleaning up a local highway. Students worked in small groups at Campbell Lodge Boys’ Home, Redwood School & Rehabilitation Center, Fort Thomas Veterans Hospital, New Perceptions, Brighton Center, Alexandria Fairgrounds and WNKU. The first-year students enjoyed the opportunity to serve the community while getting to know their new classmates. Following the service project, students gathered back on NKU’s campus for lunch and a student organization fair where they learned all about the different organizations run by and for Chase law students.

NKU receives grant for STEM Northern Kentucky University announced that it has received a $999,930 National Science Foundation grant to help recruit and retain science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) students. The grant, which NKU is calling Focus on Occupations, Recruiting, Role Models, Community and Engagement (FORCE), will be administered over five years. “It’s pretty prestigious,” said Dr. Bethany Bowling, co-principal investigator for the grant. NKU was one of 22 schools that received the grant out of 186 schools proposals submitted. Bowling said the hope is

that the FORCE program will increase the retention of freshman STEM students from about 30 percent to 60 percent and increase the STEM graduation rate by 50 percent. “We will be presenting and publishing information about various aspects of the project,” Bowling said. She and others will collect data to measure the program’s success. As part of the program, 10 NKU students have been selected as STEM ambassadors to assist with FORCE. Two students from each of the programs involved – biology, chemistry, computer science, mathematics and physics – will have the

responsibilities of holding study sessions, assisting in recruitment efforts and getting STEM majors involved with campus activities. The STEM ambassadors are mostly juniors selected because of their success in harder classes and campus involvement. Each STEM ambassador will be awarded a $3,000 stipend for the year. To kick off FORCE, there will be a summer research celebration Sept. 1 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. on the fourth floor of NKU’s Dorothy Westerman Herrmann Natural Science Center. The event will involve an ice cream social for all STEM majors.

Mustangs get double dose of All ‘A’ titles By James Weber jweber@nky.com

The Bishop Brossart golf teams pulled off the double play Aug. 23 in the All “A” Classic 10th Region golf tournaments. Both teams won the regional and will represent the school at the state tournament Sept. 11 in Richmond. “The big thing is it was one of our goals,” said boys’ head coach Chris Holtz. “It was rewarding to accom-

plish that. We got beat last year and it was nice to get it back.” The boys’ team shot a team score of 355 to beat Paris by seven shots. Sophomore Jimmy Kelley was second overall with an 85 and the top Mustangs. The next three Mustangs were close behind. Balance has been a strength. Kelley, Eric Walz, Matt Striegel and Bryan Kraus have taken turns leading the Mustangs in a given match. Perhaps their

best match was a victory over rival Campbell County, as Walz and Kelley both shot 40 to beat the Camels 166-176. “I have four guys who are pretty consistent and I can put them in any order and a fifth who is working his way into that conversation,” Holtz said. “Our top guy could be any of them on any day and that’s a good thing.” Brossart also beat Ninth Region champ St. Henry this year.

Other members are seniors Ben Kroger and Jordan Verst, sophomore Ian Nieses and freshman Ray Twehues. The girls’ team was led by sophomore Lauren Seiter, who was the overall medalist. Freshman Brittany Burkhart has been one of the team leaders as well. Brossart is a young team with no one older than a sophomore. The Mustangs have three of those in Seiter, Catherine DeMoss and Amanda Pfefferman; two freshmen in Burkhart and Madison Schneider; and an eighth-grader in Taylor Burkhart. Schneider and Seiter both shot 49’s in a recent win over Scott.

The Northern Kentucky University volleyball team has been picked to finish fourth in the Great Lakes Valley Conference preseason poll, which was released Tuesday. NKU, which posted a 2012 record last season, received 158 total points in the poll. The Norse were 10-4 in the GLVC last year and finished fourth in the league standings. NKU, which returns five starters this year, has won at least 20 matches for 17 consecutive seasons. Defending GLVC champion Indianapolis is the preseason pick to win the GLVC. The Greyhounds, who also won the NCAA Division II Midwest Region championship last fall, collected 193 total points and 11 first-place votes in the poll. Indianapolis posted a 38-2 overall record last season, including a 13-1 mark in the GLVC. Lewis totaled 179 total points and picked up two first-place votes to finish second in the poll. The Flyers (32-5, 14-0 GLVC) finished atop the GLVC regular-season standings in 2009. Missouri-St. Louis garnered 163 total points and one first-place vote to take third place in the preseason poll. The Tritons posted a 2111 overall record last year, including an 11-3 GLVC record. NKU begins its season Sept. 3 by meeting threetime defending NCAA Division II national champion Concordia-St. Paul in the University of Tampa Classic. Concordia-St. Paul finished with a 37-0 record last season en route to its third straight national championship. The Golden Bears won 32 matches by 3-0 sweeps and have dominated NCAA Division II volleyball during the past three years with 74 straight victories. The Norse also face Nebraska-Kearney (33-3 last season), Central Missouri (34-5 last season) and Tampa (31-3 last season) during that same two-day tournament in Florida. Those three teams also advanced to the NCAA Division II Tournament last year, with Tampa earning a trip to the Elite Eight. NKU plays its home opener Tuesday, Sept. 7, against the College of Mount St. Joseph. The next evening, Charleston (W.Va.) visits Regents Hall to meet the Norse. The Norse begin GLVC play Sept. 17 with a match at Southern Indiana. NKU plays host to Drury Oct. 1 in its first GLVC home match, followed by a showdown against Rockhurst on Oct. 2 in Regents Hall.

Residents on West Walnut Street in Southgate are making their safety concerns about speeding drivers heard before it is too late. Resident Jeff Strickley said the street has seen an ongoing problem with drivers speeding and disregarding stop signs that they feel is putting residents, particularly children, in a dangerous situation. “We’re trying to be proactive and address this problem before someone gets hurt,” Strickley said. From calls to the police department to e-mails and calls to Mayor Jim Hamberg, the residents said AMANDA JOERING ALLEY/STAFF they have been trying to Signs that read “slow down or go around” occupy several yards on Walnut Street in Southgate, where residents say work with the city to come they have a problem with speeding and drivers not stopping at the stop sign. up with a solution. speeding, Enzweiler said.

“We get calls like this from streets all around the city, so we can’t be on any one street all the time,” Hall said. “We have increased our presence on West Walnut, and we’ll continue to do so as much as we can to try to get people to slow down.” Strickley said while increases in police presence would help, once the police are gone for a while the speeding will start back up. “We want a more permanent solution,” Strickley said. Strickley said several residents plan to attend the next city council meeting Wednesday, Sept. 15, to present the issues to Southgate City Council. At the last council meeting Wednesday, Sept. 1, the mayor and council discussed forming a committee to look into speed bumps and other potential remedies to speeding issues on various streets in the city.

Business owners to quiz candidates By Amanda Joering Alley ajoering@nky.com

Candidates for various Campbell County races will be answering questions on the issues at the Fort Thomas Business Association’s upcoming candidate forum. The forum, which is from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 23, at the Fort Thomas Community Center, will feature candidates for senate, family court, judge executive, county commissioner, county attorney and jailer. Association President Tracy Davis said the group is using this as their quarterly meeting, where they always try to have a speaker to make association membership valuable to participants. “We thought our members, along with the public, would like a chance to meet the candidates faces to face and voice their questions and concerns,” Davis said. “We also thought the candidates would like to have the opportunity to have a public forum.” Davis said so far, the association has had a great response from the public, businesses and candidates. Of the 14 candidates for the races, 11 have confirmed that they are attending, Davis said. Pat Crowley will be moderating the event, collecting written questions from the audience, then asking them to the candidates. “We are doing it this way to ensure fairness and try to keep chaos out of it,” Davis said.

Newport Schools revamp website By Amanda Joering Alley ajoering@nky.com

Visitors to the Newport Independent School District’s website are seeing something a little different these days. During the summer, the district switched hosting companies and did a complete overhaul of the site. “The look of the old site was getting stale, and we needed to update to go along with the reorganization of the schools,” said Kevin McCormick, the district’s chief information officer. “Our old site didn’t incorporate some of the things we wanted, so we decided

to go with another company.” After starting a search in January, the district chose to go with SchoolPointe, based in Columbus. “The new site offers more features, and we’re really happy with the functionality of it,” McCormick said. McCormick said the district employees looked at what parents mainly used the website for, including things like lunch menus and calendars, and used the redesign to make those things easier to find. Features of the new site include the ability to send out mass communications to those who sub-

scribe to the site and the use of eclassrooms, which teachers will be trained on in October. With the e-classrooms teachers can post homework assignments, grades, a calendar and various documents, which students can access at home. “Its really different than the old site, but we’ve had several positive comments about it so far,” McCormick said. McCormick said the district spends about $5,000 per year on the site, which hasn’t changed with the redesign. To visit the new site, go to www.newportwildcats.org.

The Campbell County School District is seeking to shelve the idea of building a second high school and middle school building, a $30million project, in response to the sluggish economy. The district’s Board of Education has discussed possible alternatives, including a new area technology center building and a new athletic complex and stadium on the high school campus. A second gym for the high school has also been discussed by the board. Currently, both the football stadium and the McCormick Area Technology Center are next to the middle school in Alexandria.

said customers give him an idea of what they want, and he designs and draws some rough drafts for them to choose from. Once the final design is chosen, Mosby said murals usually take a couple days to a week to complete, depending upon the size. Mosby said he is open to working anywhere in the area on a variety of projects. “I’m just trying to stay busy,” Mosby said. “I don’t want to be a starving artist.” To see samples of Mosby’s work, visit www.artbyjeffmosby.com or call 513-583-8228.

get a chance to see how my work is created.” Though he’s always loved painting, from portraits to murals, Mosby said he only made it his career about three years ago when he was working as an interior painter. “A customer asked me if I could do a wall piece and things just took off from there,” Mosby said. “I’ve always enjoyed making art, I just never thought of it as a job.” Now, Mosby’s primary profession is being an artist, specializing in wall murals and house and pet portraits. For the murals, Mosby

The only action officially taken by the district’s Board of Education so far has been to ask for a review of the district’s facility plan, said Superintendent Anthony Strong. The district has sent a letter to the state asking permission to reform a district facilities plan committee, Strong said. When the district’s facilities plan was created the economy was still booming, and the expectation was that new housing planned within the district would create a need for a second high school and middle school. Enrollment has remained mostly flat in the past four years, said Superintendent Anthony Strong. “If you look at our numbers four years ago and you look at our numbers now, we’re pretty consistent that there hasn’t been any growth,” Strong said. The middle school and high school are at about 75 percent capacity, and it doesn’t appear there is a need for a new middle school or high school in the next two to four years, he said. A public meeting about the facility plan has to be scheduled, possibly by the end of September, he said.

“It’s my intent to bring back to the board in October the committee’s recommendations,” Strong said. Once a committee is formed and reviews the district facility plan, the board can look at its bonding capacity and decide to act, Strong said. The ideas of a new technology building and athletic complex are two projects already on the existing facility plan, but the designs could be tweaked by the committee, he said. “In December or January we could have discussions about possibly moving forward on those projects,” Strong said. Because a technology center is not as difficult to build as a school, a new one could be open by the 201213’ school year, he said. The idea of going without a second middle school/high school was “by no means a knee-jerk reaction,” said Juli Hale, director of community relations for the district. Examining the enrollment in each grade out 10 years, the district does have room for growth, she said. The high school has an enrollment of about 1,500 students, but was designed for a maximum of 2,000

students, she said. And the middle school is closer to capacity than the high school, but still has some room to grow, Hale said. “If we were to have a huge influx of middle school students we have some options,” she said. The Alexandria Educational Center campus, directly across from the middle school and next to the district’s central office, is mostly vacant and there is a possibility of moving students into that school if there’s a sudden spike in middle school enrollment, Hale said. In Alexandria alone there are more than 1,000 housing units planned and approved by the city since 2006 that have not come to fruition yet, according to Alexandria city records. Hale said the district was planning for a spike in enrollment especially because the Alexandria area was under a 10-year building moratorium until shortly after a new sewage treatment plant was opened in the fall of 2007. “When the moratorium was lifted the thought was we would see growth quickly,” Hale said.

Salon clips a gift for foster children By Chris Mayhew cmayhew@nky.com

Donations from a “cut-athon” at a Cold Spring hair salon will help to make Christmas better for local children in foster care. The stylists at Studio 27 Salon, 4029 Alexandria Pike, Cold Spring, will give hair cuts from 2:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 18, for a $12 donation to Specialized Alternatives for Families and Youth (SAFY). SAFY is primarily a therapeutic foster care agency, said Lisa J. Daniel, recruiter/family development specialist for SAFY of Northern Kentucky. The agency specializes in teenagers and sibling groups, and does have some placements of children with autism, Daniel said. “We have fundraisers so that we can have events for children,” Daniel said. “This is going to be for our Christmas party so we can buy

A regular customer, who works at SAFY, asked if there was any way the salon could help its Christmas fundraiser, and the answer was “yes,” Zumwalde said. Zumwalde said she is a cancer survivor, and believes in the importance of giving back. The proceeds from a bake sale on the day of the cut-a-thon will also be donated to SAFY, she said. Customers who can’t make it to the

cut-a-thon will also have their chance to donate too, she said. “We will have a jar the week of it, so if somebody can’t make it in during the cut-a-thon- they can still come in and donate,” Zumwalde said. Locally, SAFY also hosts other annual events including a trip this year to the Cincinnati Zoo with a group of foster parents, about 45 foster children and the foster parents’ biological children, she said. A donation of 138 Cincinnati Reds tickets also allowed the children to go to a game in August, Daniel said. Additionally, there are statewide events including this October’s conference for foster parents: “Creating Pathways for Vulnerable Youth Populations” at Georgetown College. Foster children will be treated to a trip to a water park while the foster parents attend the conference, Daniel said.

Foster parent information

Right now SAFY is focusing on a growing need for foster families in Campbell County, Daniel said. There are currently four SAFY foster families in Campbell County, she said. “We really need foster parents in Campbell County because the need is growing,” Daniel said. SAFY works with licensed foster parents with experience caring for children other than their own, she said. That kind of experience ranges from parents who are youth ministers and teachers to daycare workers, Daniel said. People with experience in areas including teaching Sunday school and youth sports often have the relevant experience of working with young children, she said. It doesn’t necessarily need to be a paid job, she said. The state sends a list of referrals to SAFY that the staff then reviews to see if there is a foster family that will match up with a foster child’s needs, she said. People interested in becoming a foster parent can call Lisa J. Daniel at the Northern Kentucky SAFY (Specialized Alternatives for Families and Youth) office at 341-9333.

Grad student creates better park map By Chris Mayhew cmayhew@nky.com

Using GPS and aerial photographs, a University of Cincinnati graduate student has created a new trail map sign for the Alexandria Community Park. In association with the Alexandria’s park board, Chris Carr, a graduate student and PhD candidate in the Department of Geography at the University of Cincinnati, did the GPS

mapping as part of his studies about trail recreation. Carr, of Clifton, said he regularly hikes and maps trails as he walks using hand-held GPS devices. Carr said he’s done extensive GPS mapping of and studying the impact of trails in the Daniel Boone National Forest and the Red River Gorge area. Carr’s also done GPS mapping in Denali National Park and Preserve in Alaska. The devices record a

location every second of where a walker is at and creates a highly accurate map, he said. Carr said in the case of the Alexandria Community Park, he was able to save some of the hiking he normally does and used highly accurate aerial maps that the Northern Kentucky Area Planning Commission has. The maps have layers including very fine resolution aerial photographs of the whole county including

the park, he said. “I could see the trails in the photographs,” Carr said. “While it is more fun to hike the trails, it is faster to trace the trails from the photographs.” And the photographs themselves are special because they’ve been technically created so that every point on the photograph has been adjusted to be in the correct geographic position, he said. “I can in effect trace the trails and make an aesthetically pleasing and accurate map just by tracing the aerial photographs,” Carr said. The sign with a map of the trails helps because there are trails people might not know about, including a new trail that was built after a sewer line was put through the park, said Pam Proctor, a member of Alexandria’s Park and Recreation Board. Proctor said having Carr do the mapping revealed that the trail around the lake was .67 tenths of a mile instead of seven tenths of a mile. The results are on a map sign at the entrance to the park, Proctor said. In addition to the park map, a group of technical school students are also starting work on a project to add decorative stone work at the entrance to the park, Proctor said.

Fourth-grade students from all three Fort Thomas Elementary Schools got an in-depth look into the city’s history during a recent visit to Tower Park. As part of a two-week unit about the city’s history, about 200 students from the schools spent the day at the park, visiting a variety of historical landmarks including the armory, the old military post, the water tower, the tree trail and the Fort Thomas Military and Community Museum. “During the Fort Thomas history unit, students learn all about these places, but actually getting to visit them is really great,” said Chris Capal, a fourth-grade teacher at Moyer Elementary. “This city’s history is very interesting, and it’s great that the kids have the opportunity to learn about it like this.” Groups of students spent the day taking turns at the various stations, where they heard from different speakers. Johnson Elementary School Principal Jon Stratton said visiting Tower Park really helps the students understand the history of the city. “Getting to see these things really generates some excitement in the students and helps to develop their sense of community,” Stratton said. Stratton said the students’ reactions were the best indicators of what the day meant to them. “I heard one student say, ‘That

NKU to offer healthy campus catering Northern Kentucky University announced a new catering program to make choosing healthy food easy and affordable for all who dine on campus. The program, called Meeting Well, provides healthy catering options to NKU Dining customers including faculty, staff, students and the local community. “Meeting Well puts a healthy yet affordable spin on catered food on campus, making it easy for anyone at NKU to select healthy and delicious food for catered events on campus,” said John Ruppert, director of NKU Dining. “Meeting Well offers healthy food and beverage choices not only for breakfast, lunch and dinner menus, but also for receptions, meeting breaks, special events – really any occasion where food is served.”

Allyson Wallbridge, assistant director of NKU Wellness and a registered dietitian, said the partnership was designed to take the guesswork out of choosing healthy food. “Meeting Well helps food purchasers identify healthy options and provides guidance on working these options into a well-rounded menu,” Wallbridge said. “The beauty of Meeting Well is that it can be used to augment an existing menu or to create an entire menu of healthy options.” Kathy Stewart, director of special events at NKU, said Meeting Well helps her respond to the growing demand for healthy food from both campus and community groups.

Justice Donald C. Wintersheimer, retired justice of the Kentucky Supreme Court, has donated his original papers and other personal documents to the Northern Kentucky University Chase College of Law. The Justice Donald C. Wintersheimer Digital Collection will be formerly dedicated at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 7, in the Chase Law Library. This publically accessible digital archive includes more than 8,000 documents chronicling the justice’s work on the court and offers a historical window into the social and economic issues facing Kentucky during those decades. The collection includes draft opinions, memos, briefs and other documents that accompanied the decisionmaking process of Justice

Wintersheimer and his colleagues on the Court. “Chase College of Law is honored to unveil the Justice Donald C. Wintersheimer Digital Collection,” said Michael Whiteman, associate dean for law library services and information technology. “This collection makes available to legal researchers and scholars the inner workings of the Kentucky Supreme Court and allows them to get behind the rationale of Kentucky Supreme Court decisions that have shaped the law in the Commonwealth for the past 30 years.” Justice Wintersheimer served on the Kentucky Supreme Court beginning with his election in 1982 until his retirement from the bench in 2006. Prior to his

service on the Supreme Court he was a judge on the Kentucky Court of Appeals, solicitor for the City of Covington and an attorney in private practice. He was a prolific opinion writer, averaging over 50 opinions each year, the most for any member of the Kentucky Supreme Court. He has published three law review articles in the area of state constitutional law for the Northern Kentucky Law Review and the Albany Law Review. Justice Wintersheimer is a member of the American Society of Writers on Legal Subjects as well as a member of the Kentucky and Ohio State Bar Associations, American Bar Association, Cincinnati Bar Association and Northern Kentucky Bar Association.

Brossart football rallies to go 3-0 By James Weber jweber@nky.com

After learning how to win last year, the Bishop Brossart football team is showing that it hasn’t forgotten those skills over the summer. The Mustangs beat Caverna 23-22 on the road Sept. 3 to improve to 3-0 for the season. Jesse Orth connected with Spencer Brown for a 50-yard touchdown with 45 seconds to play, completing a comeback from a 22-3 first-half deficit. “Our conditioning and how we pushed ourselves was a big key,” Brossart head coach Matt Reinhart said. “We found out something about ourselves. They were physical and fast and their QB was one of the best we’ve seen. He killed us until we figured out how to handle him.” Orth and Brown hooked up for an 80-yard touchdown in the third quarter. Andrew Guidugli had a rushing TD as part of his 86 ground yards. Orth, a junior, is in his second year under center. He scrambled for a first down on fourth-and-12 on the game-winning drive. “Jesse has done well for us,” Reinhart said. “He was able to throw the ball well and run it to sustain drives. He’s coming into his own

and has truly developed into our leader on offense. While he wasn't vocal last year, he is now. He gets them ready to play.” Brossart is off this week and will play its home opener against Eminence 7:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 17, at Newport Stadium. Bellevue lost 54-7 to Holmes to drop to 1-2. Holmes had 449 yards offense to 132 for the Tigers. Jacob Sparks had Bellevue’s lone touchdown. Bellevue plays Scott this week. The game is a Thursday night special, 7 p.m. Sept. 9 at Dixie Heights. Campbell County lost 207 at Roger Bacon to drop to 1-1. Michael Kremer connected with Cory Hodge for a 47-yard touchdown for the Camels’ lone score. Campbell goes to Covington Catholic for a Saturday game, 1 p.m. Sept. 11. Dayton lost at Taylor, 51-0 Sept. 3. The Greendevils (0-2) will host Lloyd 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 10. Highlands improved to 3-0 with a 50-24 win over Beechwood. Highlands won its 31st straight game, the best current streak in the state. The Bluebirds did most of their damage in the air, with Patrick Towles completing 11-of-17 passes for 288 yards and five touchdowns. Brian Gall was the top

Camels VB improving this season By James Weber jweber@nky.com

Melissa Johnson sees a lot of potential in the Campbell County High School volleyball team she took over this season. The Camels have struggled at times this season but have pulled off some big wins this year. Johnson, who became the head coach this summer, has directed the team to a 7-5 record through Sept. 4. The Camels lost a three-set decision to Holy Cross in the semifinals of the Scott September Slam, falling 15-13 in the third set after a long rally on the final point. In that match, the Camels won the second set

25-11 after losing the first 25-14. “They played really well in the second game,” Johnson said. “We have our moments. Last night here, we played very well. We can be up on teams by eight points and let them back in and lose it.” In pool play in that tournament, Campbell lost to 2009 Ninth Region runnerup Scott in three sets. The Camels have been adjusting to losing their two top players from last year to Division I colleges and will look to get back to the state tournament after losing in the 10th Region finals last year. Junior Kennedy Berkley, a middle hitter and one of the team’s top returners, returned in the Scott tour-

ney after battling neck and back injuries. Senior Jessica Partin has been the team leader this season. Junior Jenna Martin has been a versatile presence for the Camels. Other returning starters include Kaitlyn Brown and Julia Peters. The Camels will play at rival Brossart Thursday, Sept. 9, then at Ninth Region champ Notre Dame Sept. 14. “We just have to work on our weak spots,” Johnson said. “If we do that, we’ll be OK. I don’t know if anyone in the region has the room to improve like we do. We just have to keep pushing and hopefully we’ll get to state.”

The Bishop Brossart High School volleyball team is a more seasoned, experienced unit this year. The Mustangs parlayed that experience to an 8-0 start before losing to Highlands Sept. 2. Coming up, they have a chance to show what they’ve learned in their experience in the All “A” Classic state tournament. Brossart will play in the state tourney Saturday, Sept. 11 as one of 16 regional champions from around the state. Brossart is the defending consolation bracket champion. “We’ve been playing well as a team lately, putting it all together,” head coach Pennie

Wiseman said. “Last year, we won the bronze (division). We’re hoping we can go even further this year and go for the overall championship.” Action begins at 8 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 11. The 16 regional champions are divided into four pools, with the pools playing a roundrobin schedule. Pool play will be divided between Eastern Kentucky University and Berea High School. Brossart is in a pool with Whitesville Trinity, Raceland and Betsy Layne. Louisville Holy Cross is the defending champion. The top two teams in each pool will advance to the championship bracket, with the other two playing in the consolation bracket. The

championship match is 8:30 p.m. at EKU. The veteran play starts with senior outside hitter Felicity Britt, who leads the Brossart attack. Junior setter Molly Williams has quarterbacked the offense well and senior libero Marie Heeb has been a key defender. Returning junior hitters Meredith Harris and Megan Herbst are also returning starters. “Our setter has another year of experience and she knows where to place to ball and when to attack an open opportunity on the other side of the net,” Wiseman said. Brossart will tune up for the All “A” with a home match against rival Campbell County Thursday, Sept. 9.

Bluebirds find their way on soccer pitch jweber@nky.com

The Highlands High School girls’ soccer team is starting to find its way in the 2010 season. After a deep and starstudded group of future college soccer players ended their careers in the 2008 state championship game, a much younger team learned their way through a 10-8-1 campaign in 2009. So far in 2010, there have been a few bumps, but the Bluebirds took a 5-3 record into a home game with Bellevue Sept. 7. Key district games with Campbell County at Tower Park (Sept. 9) and at Bishop Brossart (Sept. 11) were to follow. “We’ve been a little bit inconsistent so far this season, but it’s still early in the season,” head coach Tommy Kearns said. “We’re still figuring out who we are and where we’re going to go. It will take some time. Even tonight, we moved a

lot of players around, trying to solidify what type of formation we’ll play.” “Tonight” was a 5-1 win over Simon Kenton Aug. 31, in which the Bluebirds spotted the Pioneers an early goal then peppered the Pioneer net with shots the rest of the night. Five different players scored in the victory. One of them was senior MacKenzie Grause, who notched her 13th goal of the season to tie the game. Up to that point, she had posted all but six of the team’s goals for the season until teammates notched the rest against SK. The 13 goals is the most in Northern Kentucky, and would rank third in the state among teams that have submitted statistics to the KHSAA (which Highlands has not). A senior veteran and a physical, skilled forward, Grause was Highlands’ leading scorer last year as well.

“She’s a handful right now,” Kearns said. “I wouldn’t want to be the one marking her. She’s really feeding the ball to a lot of other people as well and getting the offense going.” Senior captain MacKenzie Cole can play anywhere on the field and has done so this year, Kearns said. Junior Shelby Tully is the team’s top midfielder and works hard to win the ball. Senior goalkeeper Sydney Groneck, in her second year as starter, missed the first four games of the season after having surgery on her left leg in the summer. She wore a protective sleeve on it against SK. “She’s recovering well and will be a big piece for us in the back,” Groneck said. Other seniors are Ashley Collinsworth, Alli Diehl, Caitlin Pendery, Caroline Newman and Jordan Earlywine. Kearns hopes the 5-1 SK win will be a springboard for the Bluebirds, who were

Saints to rely on defense early By James Weber jweber@nky.com

For the Thomas More College football team to continue its recent run of winning success, new offensive leaders will have to step up this year. The Saints have won the Presidents’ Athletic Conference the past two seasons and made the Division III playoffs those same years. Last year’s playoff dream ended with a last-second field goal by Johns Hopkins in the second round, ending TMC’s 11-0 start to the year, and this year’s Saints are primed to take the next step. “The kids are working hard,” said fourth-year head coach Jim Hilvert. “It’s exciting. We’re still a young football team. We have more experience on the defensive side of the ball. I’m very excited about the guys we have coming back and the guys we have coming in as recruits.” One guy not coming back is standout quarterback Trevor Stellman, who is now an assistant coach after a career in which he ended up second on TMC’s career passing list (5,325 yards) and first in passing TDs (50). Rob Kues, a former Newport Central Catholic standout in his sophomore season at TMC, takes over as starter. He got playing time in eight games last year but threw just seven passes. “The more snaps he gets this year, the better,” Hilvert said. “He has a lot of good weapons around him who can make plays. We have

PROVIDED

He steps into the No. 1 spot after the graduation of veteran Cordario Collier, who left with the No. 3 career ranking on the school’s rushing list. Owens is also the top returning receiver with 21 catches for 304 yards. Austin Studer (Campbell County) is the top returning wideout (16/297). Other returning weapons include running back Luis Perez (Anderson), receiver Mercier Doucette (Boone County) and tight end Matt Clark (McNicholas). Clark was second team all-conference last year. Freshman back Domonique Hayden and freshman receivers Adam Rauch and Corie Cartmell (Oak Hills) could make immediate impacts. TMC returns seven starters from a defense that

allowed just 16.6 points per game. Hilvert is excited about the line, anchored by firstteam all-PAC selections Tyler Owens (Highlands) and Jay Volker (Elder). Seniors Justin Smith (NewCath) and Greg Dixon (Cov Cath) join junior John French as key veterans. Sophomore linebacker Nick Gramke (Elder) leads that corps. He was first team all-conference last year. Zach Autenrieb (Elder) was one of the national leaders in interceptions last year, setting a school record with nine. The first-team all-PAC pick leads the secondary, which also returns second-team all-conference senior Aaron Monk (Elder) and honorable mention senior Wade Begley (Campbell County). “We’ll have a fast defense and a physical one,” Hilvert said. “We have a lot of leaders, guys who take pride in playing defense. The defense will keep us in the game while the offense gets into shape.” Dustin Zink (NewCath) returns as placekicker. TMC will start on the road at Hanover Sept. 11, then travel to Geneva for a PAC league game Sept. 18. The Saints will need to be in good shape for their home opener Sept. 25. That’s when chief PAC rival Washington & Jefferson comes into Crestview Hills. In a preseason national poll by the Sporting News, TMC was rated 12th and W&J 13th. TMC is the presesaon pick to win the PAC.

coming off a 2-0 loss to 2009 state runner-up Notre Dame three days earlier. The Notre Dame was a follow-up to an uplifting 4-1 win over state power Lexington Catholic. “We return a lot from last year but we’re seeing where the puzzle pieces fit,” Kearns said. “When you come off a big win like LexCath you’ve got to be prepared to give the same kind of effort night in and night out. Notre Dame outworked us in the middle of the field. They were the more physical team.”

Would you consider buying one the new models of electric cars, such as Nissan Leaf or Chevy Volt? Why or why not? “No. These cars are so subsidized by the government that they do not, at this time, represent an answer to our nation’s energy and environmental challenges. “Let the research continue and perhaps someday we will have better battery technology. Perhaps even hydrogen fuel cells or liquid natural gas (LNG) are the answer for powering cars and trucks. My understanding is that LNG is very viable today for much wider usage. “Meanwhile, the government subsidy for the production of technologies like electric cars, windmills, solar cells, ethanol, etc. is very wasteful. Let’s be smart about this.” T.H. “I definitely would, if I had the financial resources, and if I could still keep another vehicle in case the battery was drained. I’d like to see how they perform, but we really can’t afford the luxury. “Luckily, our cars are both paid for and our mortgage is paid off or we would have a tough time.” B.B. “Right now, I would not buy a new electric car. I always like to give cars a year or so on the market to see if there are any ‘bugs.’ “Also, in waiting, the price normally comes down just a little bit. However, I really like the idea of going electric with our automobiles.” J.W. “We’re empty-nesters with two vehicles. Electric cars will not satisfy the needs of either of us at this time. “Just the same, they are an intriguing option that might be in our near future.” R.V.

If the warranties are good, why not?” D.R. “No! I’m sure the maintenance and parts replacement costs will outweigh what is available today.” S.T. “The concept of an all electric car is great. Unfortunately their price is too high. “The cost differential between a gas-powered and an electric car is not competitive at the moment. Perhaps this will change in the future. Why pay twice the price of a 40 mpg gas powered car? “The average person keeps a car for six to eight years. That equates to about $3,000 a year. That is more than 1,000 gallons of gas a year at today’s prices. The average person probably uses a little over half that amount of gasoline in a year. Do the math. “An electric car is not a good deal today. Maybe in the future.” J.S.D.

September is National Preparedness Month

In Wednesday night’s Campbell County Fiscal Court meeting September was designed as National Preparedness Month in Campbell County. If the lights go out, are you prepared? Local officials encourage everyone to be prepared in case of emergency. “Kentuckians face many challenges throughout the year, from tornadoes, flooding, winter storms to manmade hazards”, said Director William R. Turner, of the Campbell County Office of Emergency Management. Turner concluded, “Every household should be prepared to face these challenges at any given time.” “Although the state and local governments are expected to assist the public during times of emergencies and disasters, preparedness starts at home. In the event of large scale disasters the government may be unable to respond immediately”, said John W. Heltzel, director of Kentucky Division of Emergency Management (KYEM). He continued, “The January ice storm of 2009 taught us many valuable lessons which we learned from. One of the most important is the value of self preparedness.” Be prepared! You should have a three day supply of food and water for each member of your family, along with essentials such as: medicines, flash lights, radio, extra batteries, matches, candles, first aid supplies, etc. Something as simple as having a flashlight, radio and extra batteries available, in the event of a power outage, can make you and your family more comfortable dur-

ing these times. Along with an emergency kit you should have an emergency plan. Planning for disaster: “Be Aware Be Prepared - Have a Plan - Make a Kit” Be aware: • Know in advance your weather forecasts • Stay tuned to your local broadcasting stations • Discuss conditions with family members and know their location during times of known potentially threatening conditions. Be prepared: • Discuss your plan with family members and neighbors • Review your plan periodically for necessary updates • Refresh you emergency kit(s) periodically • Drill: practice your plan with household members Have a plan: * • Utilities: Written instructions for how to turn off electricity, gas and water if authorities advise you to do so. (Remember, you'll need a professional to turn them back on) • Shelter: Identify safe locations within your residence • Contacts: Written contact information should include; relatives, neighbors, utility companies, employers (employees) and local emergency contact telephone numbers • Evacuate: Predetermine evacuation routes. Identify where you could go if told to evacuate Choose

Emerge Kentucky graduates inaugural class of women leaders Emerge Kentucky, a nonprofit organization established in 2009 to recruit and train Democratic women to run for public office, held its inaugural graduation of the 2010 Class of Emerge Kentucky on Saturday, August 28, 2010 at the Kentucky Democratic Party Headquarters in Frankfort. Twenty-two women from all across Kentucky will go forward to pursue their political career armed with the skills and education to run an effective campaign for public office. “Emerge Kentucky has created a pipeline of women with the tools needed to be effective candidates for public office,” said Emerge Kentucky Board Chair, Jennifer A. Moore. “These graduates are now in a position to step up and run for office at all levels of Kentucky government.”

Class members from Campbell County are: • Candace Klein – Newport • Julie Smith-Morrow – Newport • Brenda Simpson – Newport As part of the Emerge Kentucky 2010 seven-month training program, these women met with national, state and local leaders and political experts, as well as many of the state's top elected female officials and former leaders. Session speakers included Governor Steve Beshear, former Governor Martha Layne Collins, State Auditor Crit Luallen, Senators Robin Webb, Denise Harper Angel and Kathy Stein, Representative Sannie Overly, Eleanor Jordan, as well as numerous additional state house representatives. “My training through Emerge empowered me as a first-time can-

didate for Meade County Judge Executive,” said program member Becky Flaherty. “I questioned myself about my abilities and capabilities as a candidate. Emerge Kentucky truly has given me the confidence and tools that a candidate needs.” Another member of the 2010 class, Kimberly Greenwell, candidate for Kentucky House District 33 in Louisville described Emerge Kentucky as more than a training program. “It is a movement,” said Greenwell. “A movement that will change the face of Kentucky politics. If you are running for office at any level, Emerge gives you the courage, the tools and the network you need to be successful.” Eight participants in the inaugural class are candidates for the 2010 elections. They include State Representative candidate Kimber-

ly Greenwell, Mason County School Board candidate Tracey Heflin, Lexington-Fayette Urban Council candidate Kathy Plomin, Richmond City Commissioner and candidate for State Representative Rita Smart, Jefferson County School Board candidate Attica Scott, Meade County Judge-Executive candidate, Rebecca Flaherty, State Representative candidate Nellie Draus Stallings and Kentucky Senate candidate Julie Smith-Morrow. “The application for the next class of up to 25 Kentucky Democratic women will be available on the website on Sept. 1st,” said Executive Director Kathy Groob. Applications will be accepted until November 10, 2010 and the 2011 class will begin in January. Kentucky ranks 45th among the states for women in elected

office and among the 120 county judge executives, only six are women. The General Assembly consists of 15 percent women where the national average is 23 percent. There are no women in congress representing Kentucky. “For the first time, Democratic women in Kentucky will have the opportunity to receive a first-class intensive training program that will give them the confidence and skills they need to step up and run for public office,” said Emerge Kentucky Board Chair, Jennifer A Moore.

Gateway opens new manufacturing center

By Justin B. Duke jbduke@nky.com

AMANDA JOERING ALLEY/STAFF

Holy Trinity teacher Judy Pieper teaches her sixth-grade religion class.

Holy Trinity teacher brings experience to classrooms, college textbook Holy Trinity Junior High School in Newport is celebrating an accomplishment of one of their own. Teacher Judy Pieper, who teaches religion and language arts, recently received word that her responses to several case studies will be included in a new college textbook, “Child and Adolescent Development.” “This is a pretty big deal for her and for us,” said Principal Jeff Finke. “We’re very proud of her and are grateful to have her teaching here.” Pieper, an Erlanger resident, has been teaching 19 years, two of those at Holy Trinity. While she has a degree in journalism and a passion for writing, Pieper said she feels that God led her into a career of teaching. “I feel this is my vocational calling,” Pieper said.

“I’ve taught in Catholic schools my whole career, and I’m a strong believer faith-based education is where I need to be.” Pieper said she contributed to the textbook by using her own experiences in teaching and as the mother of five children ages 13 to 32. The book will be used to teach future teachers. “This opportunity was a creative and educational outlet for me,” Pieper said. “I enjoy writing, and it is nice to be recognized like this.” Finke said Pieper is very knowledgeable about the subjects she teaches, loves her faith and is able to communicate that to the students. “She has already made a big impact on the school in the two years she has been here,” Finke said.

The crown of Gateway Community and Technical College’s Boone Campus is done and welcoming students. The 103,000-squarefoot Center for Advanced Manufacturing is set to train new employees for one of the area’s top job markets. “We have a good manufacturing base in Northern Kentucky,” said Tony Clarke, chair of Gateway’s manufacturing and trades technologies division. Construction began on the center in 2007 after the Kentucky General Assembly appropriated $28.5 million for the project. The building’s key component is its lab, which contains more than $700,000 worth of hands-on equipment for learning robotics, machine tool technology, electrical technology and more. Surrounding the lab are classrooms. “The instructors get to lecture in the classrooms then come out into the lab,” Clarke said. The lab floor was designed with the future in mind. Most of the equipment is on wheels or sits on a raised tile floor. As equipment advances, it can be replaced as Gateway gets the money, and the tiles can be removed to add in new components. “We set it up to be flexible,” Clarke said. When deciding on what equipment should be in the labs, landing students in jobs was one of the main goals, he said. “We regularly meet with employers to see what they want,” Clarke said. While the economy has taken its toll on manufacturing as it has on many other industries, knowing what employers want has brought opportunities to Gateway students, he said.

JUSTIN B. DUKE/STAFF

Kevin Donohoo, associate professor for industrial maintenance, explains electrical equipment to Eric Hockenberry, front, and Darcy Driscoll. “We’ve seen an uptick in demand for co-ops and job postings,” Clarke said. Having all the equipment in one lab and continued talk with employers will bring better ways to train students, he said. “One thing employers always ask for is a multiskill technician,” Clarke said. Gateway is looking for ways to integrate the curriculum of the different programs so graduates leave with a multitude of skills, he said.

More are welcome

JUSTIN B. DUKE/STAFF

Gateway’s Center for Advanced Manufacturing is now open for students on the Boone Campus.

By having such a large space to work, Gateway will be able to handle even more students in its manufacturing and trades technologies division. The manufacturing division has grown by about 20 percent in the last year, Clarke said. “We’re growing, and we’re accommodating that growth,” he said.

September 2, 2010

How are celebrities and heroes different? Are being a celebrity and a hero the same thing? No way! It’s much more demanding to be a real hero than a celebrity. Why? Because being a celebrity flows right along with our human ego desires. From birth we all like to be approved, applauded and considered special. We thrill when we cause a look of awe in someone else’s eyes. Though these desires to be admired are natural and normal, yet they’re also precarious because of what they can lead us to surmise about ourselves. Society extols the body more than the soul. We learn quickly that the way to be a celebrity is through qualities of our body: coordination, having a wellformed and beautiful body, good voice, being able to hit or throw a ball far, act well, etc. These positive talents can be stepping stones to celebrity in America and of benefit to those

who possess them. Being a hero is far more difficult. That’s because being heroic requires going against the natural Father Lou desires of our Guntzelman ego. It means Perspectives achieving harder and higher goals that usually lie dormant in us – sacrificing our comfort, pleasure or risking our life for the good of another, overcoming self-centeredness, acting altruistically. For example, we all have a natural desire for self-preservation. When a soldier risks his or her life to save a combat buddy, or a passerby braves a river current to save someone from drowning, they go against their natural instinct of self-preservation and

make a more difficult choice to risk themselves for the good of another. That’s a hero. We often see this displayed in police, fire or medical personnel. Whereas celebrity-hood deals with talents of the body, being a hero deals with the deeper talents of the soul and heart. It involves varying amounts of courage. JetBlue’s Steven Slater (sliding down the chute away from his duties) and Lady Gaga are celebrities. The 10 non-military aid workers risking their lives to help poor Afgans for many years, and recently murdered by the Taliban, are heroes. That doesn’t mean celebrities are awful people. It just means it takes so much more giving of ourselves to be called a hero or role model. We don’t lack celebrities today. We lack heroes. We lack people

who will go against societal pressures, easy instinct, greed and self-centeredness for higher goals such as love, the common good, and genuine concern for others. We need people who will choose an action because it is right, and not because it will “make more money,” “make me famous,” or “get me elected.” Occasionally there are publicly noticed heroes. But there are even more silent heroes. Silent heroes are people not recognized by others. They are mothers and fathers who go against the natural desire of their own comfort and choose instead the growth and good of their children; businesspersons who forego a lucrative deal because it’s unjust; students who refuse to cheat on their exams; spouses who won’t betray the other … they’re all heroes of the strong, silent sort. Celebrities attract us to them-

selves; heroes attract us to goodness and service. Celebrities give autographs; heroes give powerful examples to live by. The distinction between celebrity and hero is crucial, especially for teens and young adults. For, as Dr. Drew Pinsky states, “They are the sponges of our culture. Their values are now being set. Are they really the values we want for our young people to be absorbing? Do we want them to have a revolving-door love life, or a stable relationship? … “I speculate that what drives us toward this phenomenon of elevating people to almost godlike status is not so much the glamour we like focusing on – rather it’s the dysfunction.” I wonder why.

When you’re flooded with FEMA insurance demands More than 300 Hamilton County homeowners are a m o n g thousands f r o m around the nation who have been told they must purchase Howard Ain ff el doe ro adl Hey Howard! insurance to protect their homes. But many say new federal flood plain maps are just plain wrong. John Wright of Springfield Township said he’s upset that the new Federal

Emergency Management Flood maps show he’s in a flood plain. He said he’s certain it’s not true, but when he failed to buy flood insurance his mortgage lender bought it for him. “They’re getting $2,175 from me for flood insurance unless I appeal the process,” said Wright. So, Wright has begun his appeal by first hiring a survey company to check his property. There is a creek in his backyard, but during the six years Wright has lived there he said, “We’ve never had any water at all in our backyard – much less come up

the hill to the property.” Nevertheless, it’s that creek that FEMA saw on aerial maps which prompted it to designate Wright’s house as being in a flood plain. Wright argues FEMA never took into account the elevation of his house compared with that of the creek. The company Wright hired to survey his property has completed its work and he said. “They told me the elevation (of my house) was 20 feet above the creek. They are dealing with FEMA as far as the appeals process but they told me they didn’t think I’m in a flood zone

whatsoever,” he said. The survey cost Wright more than $700 and, combined with the cost of the flood insurance, he said it’s costing him dearly for what he says is a monumental mistake by FEMA. Other homeowners have also fought the new flood plain designation.

So much fuss has been raised by homeowners that the U.S. House of Representatives passed a measure calling for reimbursement of those who successfully challenge FEMA. The measure has yet to be passed by the Senate. Bottom line, if you’re been told your house is now

in a flood plain and you believe FEMA is wrong, the first thing to do is hire a surveyor to check out your property. Howard Ain answers consumer complaints weekdays on WKRC-TV Local 12. Write to him at 12 WKRC-TV, 1906 Highland Ave., Cincinnati 45219.

Tune in for the highly sought radio rolls recipe I’m looking out at the cornfield right now and it is amazing to me how much change can occur in a garden over the span of a couple weeks. Now the stalks are turning brown and there are just a few stray ears stubbornly hanging on. My peppers and tomatoes are still bearing nicely, and the gourds climbing up the corn stalks look healthy, so the kids will have fun picking those in a couple of months.

Radio roll recipe

I have to thank Mount Lookout reader Tom Heitkamp for sleuthing out this recipe and tweaking it to his satisfaction. For Pat and other readers who remembered these rolls from their childhood. Apparently, it’s a German bakery specialty, and there are two versions of it: Tom’s and the elephant ears made with a puff type pastry (though the elephant ears are shaped a bit differ-

Rita Heikenfeld Rita’s kitchen

ent). T o m made this recipe a couple of times and he told me he is h a p p y with this o n e . Thanks, Tom!

Rolls: 1

⁄2 cup shortening (Crisco) 1 teaspoon salt ⁄4 cup sugar 1 ⁄2 cup boiling water 1 package active dry yeast 1 ⁄2 cup lukewarm water (110-115 degrees F.) 1 large egg, beaten 21⁄2 cups all-purpose flour 2 cups All Bran 1

Filling:

1 stick butter, softened 1 cup brown sugar, packed 1 cup chopped nuts (Tom uses walnuts)

Glaze: 1

⁄4 cup butter (1/2 stick) 1 ⁄2 cup brown sugar, packed 2 tablespoons milk 1 cup powdered sugar

Place shortening, sugar and salt in mixing bowl; pour boiling water over, whisk to blend and let cool until lukewarm. Meanwhile, dissolve yeast in lukewarm water. Add yeast mixture, egg, flour and All Bran to cooled ingredients. Stir until well blended. The dough will be soft. Place dough, covered, in refrigerator overnight. When ready to bake, combine filling ingredients in a small bowl; stir well to blend and set aside. Remove dough from refrigerator, and on a wellfloured work surface, roll out dough to a 10-by-16by-1⁄4 thick rectangle. Spread filling mixture evenly on top to within 1⁄2 inch of edges. Starting with a long side, roll up like a jelly roll into a log; moisten

seam and pinch to seal. Roll log back and forth to even it, extending it to 20 inches long. Cut log crosswise into ten 2-inch thick slices. Place slices, cut side down, on greased or parchment-lined baking sheets pressing and patting them into 31⁄2-inch rounds. Cover lightly and place in warm place to rise. When rolls are puffy (after 11⁄2 to 2 hours), place baking sheets on upperthird and lower-third oven racks of preheated 350degree oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until lightly browned, rotating positions halfway through for even baking. For glaze, melt butter in small saucepan. Add brown sugar; bring to a slow boil, stirring constantly, for two minutes. Remove from heat. Add milk, stir to blend. Return to heat and heat to a boil. Remove from heat, add powdered sugar and whisk until smooth. Glaze thickens on cool-

ing; if necessary, reheat glaze to maintain spreading consistency. Remove rolls from oven, and immediately brush them with glaze mixture. Let rest on baking sheets 10 minutes then cool on wire racks. Makes 10 rolls. More roll recipes: For some similar roll recipes, go to Rita’s online column at www.communitypress.com or call 513-591-6163.

The Northern Kentucky University Institute for Nonprofit Capacity will host a free workshop titled “New Clients, New Needs, New Responses” Tuesday, Sept. 14, from 8 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. in Room 104 of NKU’s Student Union. The workshop will show how agencies can adapt and utilize new processes to meet new frontline needs. It will address challenges posed by the economy. John Young, CEO of Freestore Foodbank, will provide an overview of the changing landscape and new challenges that the economy has posed for nonprofit service providers and for those they serve. Guests will learn how an agency can craft new methods of meeting the changing needs of the economy. Young has been on the ground floor of serving the expanding poor. “Everyone who makes it in this world has help,” he said. “All of our lives are intertwined and we are all connected, one dependent upon the other.” Prior to coming to Freestore Foodbank, Young served as welfare reform executive for Hamilton County Job and Family Services. Young, who serves on numerous nonprofit boards, obtained his bachelor’s of science from Xavier and a master’s in education from the University of Cincinnati. The workshop is sponsored by Community Tech Knowledge, which enables nonprofits to efficiently track clients, programs, outputs, outcomes and the impact of services and funding on communities. The workshop is free, but pre-registration is required. To register, visit the NKU Connections website at www.peopleware.net/index. cfm?siteCode=0971&.

This event, scheduled to run from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Sept. 11, will host a celebrity match featuring local and state politicians, school administrators and television/radio personalities. In addition to the celebrity match, a police versus firefighter competition is planned to take place. Tickets priced at $10 are now on sale and can be purchased through the Northern Kentucky Youth Foundation’s website at www. nkyyouth.org. Due to the amount of seats available, a limited amount of tickets will be for sale at the door, therefore, it is strongly suggested to purchase tickets in advance. Lazer Kraze, a local business in Erlanger, as well as an official sponsor of the Northern Kentucky Youth Foundation, has printed a free laser tag mission pass on the back of each event ticket (value of $8). Due to the generosity of local businesses and individuals, the foundation has committed 100 percent of all ticket sales to helping local teens and families. It is anticipated that within one month after this event, at least one youth center will be setup in the Northern Kentucky area.

Being a Girl Scout leader is one way adults lend their talents to help build tomorrow’s leaders. By providing girls with opportunities for skill building, supportive relationships and opportunities to belong, both adults and girls experience the integration of family, school and community efforts. For girls to truly benefit from Girl Scouting, they need the guidance of caring, concerned adults. For more information about volunteering, call the Girl Scouts of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road Council at 859-342-6263 or 800716-6162, visit www.gs

kentucky.org or e-mail joingirlscouts@gswrc.org. Many people hesitate to become a Girl Scout volunteer because they don’t think they have the time. However, Girl Scout volunteers have the opportunity to structure their Girl Scout troop to meet their time constraints. Susan Hansell is the new CEO of Kentucky’s Wilderness Road Council. She encourages adults to join in the fun of Girl Scouting, “Whether a person has time to give once a week or once a year, there are volunteer opportunities that will make a difference in the lives of our girls.”

Girl Scout leaders needed Each year hundreds of girls in Kentucky’s Wilderness Road Council sign up to be Girl Scouts but don’t have the opportunity to benefit from Girl Scout’s many opportunities because of a lack of leaders. “There’s nothing worse than a little girl wanting to be a Girl Scout and not having a troop to put her in,” said Ruby Webster, GSKWRC membership director. “It’s a continuing challenge to find leaders.” Girl Scouts volunteers say they enjoy building relationships with other adults and learning valuable skills through Girl Scouts’ training and leadership experience.

When stars are born, with a touch of Gold The Aug. 5 doings at Gold Star Chili in Bellevue, Ky., had everything you need for a swell affair – the unveiling of a wonderful mural painted by a worldrenowned artist, good food and good people. Wyoming was well represented: artist C.F. Payne, 1972 Wyoming High School graduate; Charlie Howard, fourth generation Wyomingite and director of marketing for Gold Star Chili, and Justin and Shawnta Buckner, Wyoming residents depicted in the mural. To top it off, Brownings of Wyoming framed the original mural painted by Payne. Since Greater Cincinnati is known as “Chilitown USA,” and Gold Star is “The Flavor of Cincinnati,” Payne was the natural choice to promote the restaurant that best understands the connection the people have to their Cincinnati-style chili. As stated by Charlie, “Mr. Payne is a life-long resident of Cincinnati neighborhoods and a Cincinnatistyle chili fan. Even though he is best known for his illustrations of famous personalities, the heart of his work is the depiction of

Evelyn Perkins Community Press columnist

everyday people – the kind of regular, hardworking individuals and families who have been Gold Star’s core customer for the past 45 years. This illustration is really a trib-

ute to them.” The huge mural is of just those folks that Charlie mentioned – actual Gold Star Chili customers and employees. A call went out through the Enquirer for models, and the response was fabulous. Many of them attended the unveiling. Payne has been referred to as our generation’s Norman Rockwell for his slice of life portrayals, and it’s easy to understand how on point his work is when you meet him. He and his wife, Paula, are just like your next-door neighbor. His Aug. 2, 2010, cover of Time magazine is a perfect example of how his work captures the spirit of the moment.

Gold Star CEO Mike Rohrkemper commented that dining in neighborhood chili parlors is a sign of being from Cincinnati, and that Gold Star gets to know its customers and actively participates in the neighborhoods where they live and work. “So, we are honored that C.F. Payne took on this concept for us in the mural. It is friendly and neighborhood

oriented.” Payne thanked the models and Charlie for his idea to go to the public for them. They came on a dreary day and were very cooperative. He graciously autographed my copy of Time, signed poster-sized copies of the mural and posed for photos with models at the spot where they appear in the mural.

The Bellevue location was chosen because owner “Chili Rick” Schmidt is characterized in the painting. Charlie says, “The mural depicts the ultimate Cincinnati-style chili parlor experience and the Bellevue store truly fits the profile. The illustration will be reproduced and installed as a wall mural in select Gold Star Chili restaurants throughout the Greater Cincinnati area.” Several selections from the illustration “will be framed and installed in Gold Star restaurants to provide an in-store ambiance that visually depicts Gold Star Chili’s brand position, The Flavor of Cincinnati.” You’ll see this same artwork in future advertising and on Gold Star menus. Over the next four years, Payne will create a series of paintings that offer a tribute to Bengals fans, and leverage Gold Star’s NFL sponsorship status as the “Official Chili” of the Cincinnati Bengals. The artwork will then be applied to upscale Bengals collectible merchandise, and sold during football season with the purchase of specific food

Brothers Jim and Steve Pangallo pose for picture in front of their new business venture, Pangallo’s Auto Service, in the former Ken’s Kar Kare on Alexandria Pike in Southgate.

Pangallo’s offers full-service car care The former Ken’s Kar Kare on Alexandria Pike has a new owner and is getting a new look, but keeping the same tradition of full service car care. Newport resident Steve Pangallo took over the business, now called Pangallo’s Auto Service, at the beginning of August after purchasing the building from Kentucky Motors. “I’ve been in the auto repair business for 22 years,” said Pangallo, who worked for the old Neltner’s gas station for 12 years. “I decided it was time to branch out on my own.” Pangallo said he is going to keep offering full automotive services and full service gas service, which includes a fill-up, window cleaning, fluids check and

tire pressure check. “This is the only full service gas station in Campbell County,” Pangallo said. “It gives patrons a chance to ask myself and my techs about car maintenance while they’re getting their gas.” Pangallo said while they are open for business, they are finishing up a complete renovation of the building, including the office, lobby, bathroom and exterior. The business is holding an open house from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 18, that will include door prizes and food. Pangallo’s is open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. For more information call 441-5001.

How many friends does truth have in our lives? Truth often seems difficult to find. That’s not because it wants to be so, but because we need it to be so. Humans can’t stand too much reality at a time. Imagine our chagrin if we actually knew the truth about ourselves, our weaknesses, unworthy motives and pretenses. Think of the trouble we would experience if we tried to speak the truth to everyone. A current Geico TV ad about truthful Abe Lincoln depicts our dilemma. Lincoln is asked by his wife, “Do you think this dress makes me look too fat?” He looks, silently struggles, anxiously fidgets, then holds his thumb and forefinger an inch apart… and she leaves the room in a huff. We hide from the truth. Oh, we do permit ourselves to know some of the truth - as long as it’s agree-

able to what we already think and treats us favorably. Mostly we’re easy receptors today of lies, greased words and half truths. As the American Melting Pot expands and becomes even more diverse, we are reminded of our founder’s desire that we be a nation of tolerance toward each other as we search for the truth in our lives. Most of us try hard to be tolerant. This means that we deal with others and their beliefs respectfully. G.K. Chesterton once remarked, “I can have regard for someone else’s belief, as I would their pet, without being expected to take it home with me.” Being tolerant does not mean each of us can’t hold to what we have good reason to believe is truth. When our ego becomes too narcissistic, we take it personally if someone else believes different-

ly. We insist they bend their conviction to align with ours. Tragically, violence and religious wars have been waged to accomplish that. What was needed was respectful discussion and openness. When we sincerely believe we hold something of truth, we naturally want to share it with others (as we do all good things.) In this sharing, two factors are to be kept in mind. First, the most powerful way of sharing what we believe to be of truth is to live it in our daily lives. It’s said that as St. Francis of Assisi lay dying, he told his followers gathered around his bed to, “Preach the gospel everywhere, and if necessary, use words.” The second factor in trying to share what we perceive as truth, is not just to tell the truth, but to

tell the truth in love. This means to tell it with concern not only for the truth that is being told, but with concern also for the people to whom it is being told. For everyone to whom we speak carries their own experiences and dreams, fears and doubts, anxieties and beliefs on their backs the way a snail carries his shell. Tolerance means acknowledging and respecting theirs and our own. Author J. Ruth Gendler compares “Truth to a good thief who steals illusions and replaces them with what is real and precious. He can climb over any security fence we have constructed to keep out disturbing influences. And although he can unlock any window or door, he is not interested in breaking in or getting away. He insists on being wel-

comed and invited to stay.” Truth is closer to us than we Father Lou realize, especialGuntzelman ly in our silent times. He is Perspectives always there lingering in the long pauses between difficult questions and possible answers, between our uncertainties and perceived certainties, between the beliefs of one person and the differing beliefs of another. Truth is willing to wait at long time for us. The one thing that Truth will not do is stay away with us without being treasured and loved. Father Lou Guntzelman is a Catholic priest of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. Contact him at columns@community press.com or P.O. Box 428541, Cincinnati, OH 45242.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll go cuckoo for coconut-date-almond granola Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official. For the most part, the kids, at least those attending elementary and high school, are in full session now. It wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be long before they get into the routine that school days bring. So starting them out with a good breakfast is key. There are always those kids, though, who just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to eat breakfast. If thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the case at your house, try this chunky granola recipe and even if they run out the door with a handful to eat on the go, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better than no breakfast at all.

Chunky granola with dates, coconut, almonds

I like this as a breakfast cereal or over frozen yogurt. 2 cups old fashioned oats

1 cup whole almonds 1 â &#x201E;2 cup each: flaked coconut and raw cashews or nuts of your choice 1 â &#x201E;2 cup packed brown sugar or bit more to taste 1 teaspoon ground allspice 2-3 teaspoons cinnamon 1 â &#x201E;4 cup butter 3 tablespoons honey 1 cup pitted dates, each cut crosswise into thirds or chopped coarsely Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Mix oats, almonds, coconut, cashews, brown sugar, allspice and cinnamon together. Melt butter and honey and pour over granola mixture, blending well. Spread on sprayed baking sheet. Bake 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add dates, mix to separate any clumps.

Continue to bake until golden brown, stirring frequently, about 10 minutes or so more. Store airtight at room temperature, or freeze for up to six months.

Bravoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dipping sauce

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had so many requests for this I lost count. Carol Ryan found this in Bravoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cookbook. Carol said she didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t discard all of the herbs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I added the herbs to the oil, and added more garlic,â&#x20AC;? she wrote. 1

â &#x201E;4 cup Canola oil â &#x201E;2 tablespoon dried rosemary, thyme, and basil 1 â &#x201E;2 oz. sun dried tomatoes softened in five tablespoons boiling water for five minutes (see tip below) 1 teaspoon chopped garlic 1 tablespoon salt 11â &#x201E;2 tablespoons tomato paste 1

â &#x201E;2 teaspoon pepper 1 tablespoon parsley 31â &#x201E;4 cups olive oil

In saucepan, bring oil and herbs to a simmer. Lower heat and simmer three minutes, then strain oil and discard herbs. Add tomatoes, garlic, tomato paste, salt and pepper to Canola oil. PurĂŠe 15 seconds. Add parsley and olive oil, blend additional five seconds. Tip from Ritaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kitchen: A half an ounce equals a tablespoon.

Pat Kellisonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s black bean soup like Panera

What a fun story that Pat shared. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I lived in Los Angeles I learned to love black bean soup. When I returned to Cinci, I could never find black bean soup at any local restaurant, Recently found it at Paneraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and it is comparable to what I have come to love. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like the one I make â&#x20AC;&#x201C;

minus the sherry addition. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the sherry addition, dollop of sour cream on top and a twist of lemon on top of the sour cream which is the final touch that makes this soup outstanding.â&#x20AC;? 4 cans (15 oz. each) black beans 3 slices, rough chopped bacon, sliced â&#x20AC;&#x201C; DO NOT COOK 1 tablespoon olive oil 12 oz. beer 1 â &#x201E;2 cup water 1 tablespoon dry sherry 3 â &#x201E;4 cup diced onions 1 â &#x201E;2 cup green peppers, diced 2 tablespoons garlic, diced 1 â &#x201E;4 teaspoon cumin 2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce To taste - Adobe seasoning, salt and pepper Heat oil in a pot on medium heat. Add chopped bacon and sautĂŠ for 1 minute. Add peppers, onions and garlic. SautĂŠ for approximately two minutes.

Six locations host walk-in HIV testing Almost 300,000 Americans have HIV and don’t know it, according to estimates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “People walking around unaware they are HIV positive is a major health concern, not only for themselves, but for others they might unknowingly infect,” said Bob Ford, Senior Health Educator. “This new testing time and location adds another opportunity for residents to learn their status, while taking advantage of the convenience of oral testing, which is a mouth swab that provides results in only 20 minutes.” Testing centers are located at: • 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. on the third Sunday of each month

at St. John United Church of Christ, 520 Fairfield Ave., Bellevue. • 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Thursdays at the Health Department’s District office, 610 Medical Village Drive, Edgewood. • 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the first Wednesday of each month at the Peter G. Noll Community Center, 400 W. Sixth St., Newport. • Noon to 2 p.m. on the second Saturday of each month at the Lane Chapel, C.M.E. Church, 125 Lynn St., Covington. • 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. on the third Tuesday of each month at the Campbell County Health Center, 1098 Monmouth St., Newport. • 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. on the fourth Monday of each month at the Kenton County Health Center, 2002

Madison Ave., Covington. From July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010, more than 400 people were tested during the walk-in times. Tests are administered using the OraQuick test, which utilizes a mouth swab-no needles are used. Results are available in about 20 minutes. Each individual tested receives education on HIV/AIDS, discovers what his/her risk factors are, and learns how to prevent transmission of HIV. Counseling and assistance with treatment is made available through the Health Department’s HIV/AIDS Case Management Program, should an individual test positive. For more information regarding the Health Department’s HIV services, call 859-341-4264 or visit www.nkyhealth.org.

New SBA website to go live sonalized and dynamic SBA.gov we will be better able to support job growth across the country.” The website redesign is part of the SBA’s goal to create a dynamic online presence that delivers information to customers wherever they are online. To achieve this goal, the agency recently began using social media to reach constituents through a variety of online channels such as Facebook and Twitter. The agency also recently launched an improved search function on the current SBA.gov website which vastly improves the speed at which users can find the

information they are looking for in advance of the launch of the new site this fall. The website redesign is also the Flagship Initiative of the SBA’s Open Government Plan and addresses all three of the agency’s Open Government goals – transparency, participation and collaboration – by providing direct access to agency programs and operations, allowing users to customize their online experience, and, beginning next year, incorporating community features such as discussion forums and public feedback tools.

The U.S. Small Business Administration announced that a complete redesign of its website, SBA.gov, will launch this fall. The new SBA.gov will make it easier for small businesses, lending institutions, small business counselors and other members of the small business community to more quickly find the information they need through a simplified navigation structure. In addition, new features will allow users to tailor their experience to provide information that is specific to their needs and location. The new website also will offer a dedicated lender area that helps banks and other financial institutions that partner with the SBA. “Our goal as an agency is to get information, tools and services into the hands of small business owners more quickly so they can spend more time doing what they do best – creating the jobs that will drive our economic recovery,” said SBA Administrator Karen Mills. “Through a new, per-

NKU workshop to help nonprofit advocacy The Northern Kentucky University Institute for Nonprofit Capacity will present a workshop titled “Skills for Nonprofits: Advocacy and Lobbying” Friday, Oct. 1, from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. in room 104 of the NKU Student Union. The workshop is aimed at those wondering if they are allowed to be an advocate for the issues and people served by their nonprofit organization. The answer is yes, and the Oct. 1 workshop will show how those who run nonprofits and their boards can bring their issues and client needs to elected officials. Lobbying by nonprofits is acceptable, and even helps elected officials understand the issues. This workshop will help nonprofit leaders become comfortable with advocating while also demonstrating how advoca-

cy fits with organization mission and how it can impact public policy and decisions. Participants will learn the basics of the legal issues and IRS rules and how to best communicate with elected officials, including how to write letters, what to say in personal visits, how to develop grassroots campaigns and how to present testimony. The workshop will even include an opportunity to get personalized support after the workshop to ensure that organization can be confident advocates for the issues and people they serve. Led by Lori McClung, a Cleveland-based trainer and consultant associated with the nationally recognized nonprofit lobbying resource Center for Lobbying in the Public Interest, the workshop’s presenters are well respected and experienced in government relations.

Professional staff members from the Northern Kentucky Children’s Advocacy Center have been trained to

consequences of abuse. National statistics show that one in four girls and one in six boys will be sexually abused before their 18th birthday. In more than 90 percent of these instances, the abuser will be known by the child or the child’s family. Adults who participate in Stewards of Children training will learn how sexual abuse impacts the entire community. They will learn about the long-term and often devastating effects that sexual abuse has on individuals. Most importantly, participants will leave with simple, proactive strategies for protecting children. “The power abusers hold over children comes from secrecy and shame,” said Vickie Henderson, executive director of the Northern Kentucky Children’s Advocacy Center. “As adults, it is our responsibility to protect the children in our community, and this program will educate and equip adults to carry out that responsibility.” Community organizations who wish to schedule Stewards of Children training should contact Henderson at vickie.henderson@nkycac.org or by phone at 859-442-3219.

Thomas More hosts observatory open houses itors through a first-hand look at the heavens using the telescopes and other equipment at The Bank of Kentucky Observatory. Black holes remain some of the most elusive objects in the known universe. Despite the fact that a black hole does not, by itself, emit any light, they do possess three measurable quantities: mass, charge and spin. The last property, spin, is a measure of how fast a black hole is rotating. Dr. Trippe will discuss how she uses data from X-ray telescopes to measure the spin of super massive black holes at the

center of distant galaxies. Details about the topic for future events will be on the Thomas More website (thomasmore.edu) two weeks before each open house. The lectures are intended for a general audience. All ages are welcome. These events are free and open to the public with no reservation required.

Call engineer for foundation inspection Do you have foundation cracks, wall cracks, sticking doors and windows and sloping floors? Consult an independent professional engineer first to determine the cause of the problem. Foundation cracks due to differential foundation settlement can be caused by several conditions. The building code requirement for at least 30-inch footing depth was established to resist frost heave from ice expansion in the ground during the winter months. The top layer of soil has gone through these types of changes over the decades and is typically not very compacted. Some of the soils in the Greater Cincinnati area are classified as expansive clay. This type of soil changes volume when the moisture content changes. The soil shrinks in the dry summer and fall, when the rain quits falling as seen by cracks in ground. When the moisture returns to the soil during the winter and spring due to higher quantities of rain and snow, the soil swells back to its previous volume. This type of differential movement can be seen in houses that have cyclical cracks which open and close, doors rubbing the frames part of the year, etc., during the various seasons. Watering along the exterior house

foundation may help control this movement, but should be started very early in the year. Foundations that are supported at different soil depths are likely to settle differentially. This condition is typical when a shallow foundation is placed near a deeper basement foundation or on sloping lots. In older homes, underground waste piping and/or underground downspout piping can crack or break. When the piping fails water leaks along the footing, softening the soil, causing the foundation to settle differentially. The typical repair for differential foundation settlement is underpinning piers that extend the foundation deeper into the soil. There are several types of underpinning repairs. The foundation pier systems offered by foundation repair contractors cost in the range of $130 to $200 per foot of wall to be supported. The work is expensive and there are many variables in the soil, house construction and support methods to consider. A professional engineer can evaluate all of these factors and offer an unbiased opinion for the most permanent and efficient method of stabilization. An independent professional engineer should inspect the property first to

determine the Michael actual cause Montgomery of the differential move- Community ment and Recorder suggest the guest appropriate columnist repairs, if repairs are even necessary. All cracks are not a foundation problem. If foundation repairs are suggested, the engineer can provide an engineering design plan with the appropriate type of pier placed in strategic locations that several contractors can use to make their bid. The plan may be used to obtain a building permit and provide a record of the repair for the future, such as during the sale of the property. Foundation contractors typically send out a sales person that does not have any formal training and needs to sell their product, not an unbiased professional engineer. Only a professional engineer is legally allowed to practice engineering. Contractors cannot suggest they are an engineer, unless they are state licensed professional engineers. Michael Montgomery of Buyers Protection Group, is licensed Engineer in Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana. He can be reached at 800-285-3001 or www. engineeringandfoundations.com.
