Madeira repeals political yard-sign regulations Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Madeira has repealed its political yard-sign regulations following a federal court challenge by self-styled watchdog Doug Oppenheimer.

Oppenheimer sued the city after Madeira Police Chief Michael Schaefer told him Sept. 9 to take down two, 16-square-foot political signs in his yard that violated city regulations in size and number.

One sign said, “Remove the Clowns on City Oppenheimer Council" ” and the other, “Elect the Rerformers (sic) to City Council.”

Oppenheimer removed the signs, but argued in a lawsuit fi led three days later in U.S. District Court in Cincinnati that provisions of Madeira’s political yardsign regulations trample his constitutional rights to free speech, including those that say: ❚ Political yard signs may be no larger than six square feet, even though temporary signs advertising events such as church bazaars and charitable fundraisers may sometimes be as large as 50 square feet. ❚ Generally, no more than one political yard sign is allowed per candidate or issue on an upcoming ballot – in this case, the Nov. 5 Madeira City Council race.

Oppenheimer’s suit says “rerformers” was deliberately misspelled on one of his signs “to promote additional discussion about the sign.”

Madeira and Oppenheimer were already embroiled in an unrelated lawsuit pending in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court, in which the city has sued to put restrictions on Oppenheimer’s ability to sue Madeira.

The city says Oppenheimer keeps fi ling unsuccessful, harassing lawsuits against it. Oppenheimer insists he is standing up for taxpayers.

The historic Stewart house in Madisonville is at the center of a rezoning request. JEANNE HOUCK/THE ENQUIRER

Madisonville council raises concerns over apartments Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Some Madisonville residents are demanding that a development fi rm with plans to build a 150-unit apartment complex hard by a historic home take their concerns more seriously – and that Cincinnati City Hall back up the neighborhood.

But the fi rm, PLK Communities of Kenwood, says it has met seven times with Madisonville residents and groups - although it has attended just one meeting of the Madisonville Community Council, the organization voicing concerns.

PLK Communities is investing about $18 million to build market-rate apartments and preserve the historic Stewart house on about 4.5 acres at the northwest corner of Madison Road and Stewart Avenue.

The development fi rm also says it is following Madisonville’s “form-based code,” a zoning tool that takes the place of Cincinnati’s zoning laws in some areas of the neighborhood.

Madisonville residents created the form-based code in 2013 to show developers what kind of new construction the neighborhood wants and to streamline the development process.

After meeting last week with a representative of PLK Communities, the general membership of the Madisonville Community Council voted to table further discussion on whether to support the development fi rm’s request that Cincinnati change the zoning of some of its property for the complex, community council President Kate Botos said.

Botos said that was to allow “key stakeholders” aff ected by the development a chance to fi rst share their concerns with Cincinnati zoning, transportation and engineering offi cials.

PLK Communities wants to build a 150-unit apartment complex at Madison Road and Stewart Avenue in Madisonville. PROVIDED

Community council: ‘Cincinnati needs to hear the voice of the neighborhood’ “The city of Cincinnati needs to hear the voice of the neighborhood and help facilitate a productive and inclusive PLK Communities, LLC. development that Madisonville can be proud to boast about,” Botos said.

Madisonville Community Council member Bill Collins said the membership voted 43 to 0 to delay formally weighing in on the apartment complex being built by PLK Communities, which has already demolished some homes and cleared trees.

“Our resolution demands that the developer essentially start over with a thorough engagement process with the immediate neighbors of this project — residents, business owners and a school – located See APARTMENTS, Page 2A

on the streets adjacent to this project at Madison and Stewart where the developer has essentially already started demolishing a neighborhood so quickly during the last seven weeks,” Collins said.

A larger issue Collins said some Madisonville residents, like others in less affl uent Cincinnati neighborhoods, believe it is time Cincinnati pass a law requiring developers who want to build large projects — especially in residential areas – to consult with residents of all neighborhoods and to negotiate community-benefi ts agreements with the force of contract law. “(The) lack of consultation on major projects in working-class and middle-class communities like the West End, Avondale and Madisonville can be contrasted with how much smaller projects are handled in wellto-do neighborhoods like Hyde Park,” Collins said.

Nicholas Lingenfelter, vice president of development for PLK Communities, said that since July 9, the development fi rm has met twice with the Madisonville Community Urban Redevelopment Corp. and once each with the Madisonville Community Council, Stewart Avenue residents and Anderson Place residents.

PLK Communities also participated in a public staff conference with Cincinnati offi cials and hosted an open house, he said. “We had reached out to present at the community council (meeting) prior to even closing on the property in June,” Lingenfelter said.

Developer: information was provided “We have worked diligently to provide information to the community council in advance and have also pro-

vided follow-up Q&As which are posted by the community council on Facebook and Nextdoor.”

PLK Communities says in its Q&A that it could build 155 apartment units on the Madisonville property with the current zoning. But, “If we were to locate all of the units where the zoning currently requires them, The Stewart Home would not be able to stay,” the Q&A says.

The Stewart house at 5540 Madison Road is believed to have been built in 1838.

Lingenfelter said only part of the apartment-complex site is consistent with Madisonville’s form-based code, and PLK Communities wants all of it to be.

“By rezoning and rebalancing the site we are able to keep the historic home at a cost in excess of $500,000 to repair and also build to the approved density,” the development fi rm’s Q&A says.

PLK Communities plans to contribute about $1.1

the city’s political yard-sign regulations that at least one court case he cited compels Madeira to rethink its regulations.

And that is a Sept. 11 ruling by the U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals that shores up protection of political signage.

“The Sixth Circuit’s central holding was that any legislative scheme which regulates signage based upon its verbiage will face a heightened standard of review,” Madeira Law Director Brian Fox said in federal court documents.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Stephanie Bowman on Monday, Sept. 23, was to consider a request by Oppenheimer to prohibit Madeira from enforcing its political yard-sign regulations before a resolution of his lawsuit.

Otherwise, Oppenheimer said, he could lose his opportunity to use yard signs to weigh in on the November Madeira City Council race before the vote.

But Bowman did not rule on Oppenheimer’s request when representatives for Madeira said city council planned to at its regularly scheduled meeting Monday night, Sept. 23, consider passage of an emergency ordinance repealing some of the city’s sign regulations.

Oppenheimer said today that his attorney, Curt Hartman, said there was technically no fi nding at Monday’s meeting with Bowman that Madeira’s sign regulations were unconstitutional, and that Bowman did not require the repeal.

“Instead all sides and the judge indicated that it was apparent that the sign regulations violated the United States Constitution,” Oppenheimer said. “(Bowman) gave the city of Madeira an opportunity

million for Madisonville community initiatives and affordable housing, Lingenfelter said.

J.J. JioDucci, who has lived in Madisonville for more than 30 years, says the neighborhood doesn’t need more rental housing. “I believe now is the time to develop new moderately priced owner-occupied housing for working families,” said JioDucci, who is a former bank offi cial who used to work with aff ordable housing advocates, small businesses and housing developers.

JioDucci also used to serve on The Port (authority), and says she is proud of the work it is doing in Cincinnati. “My only concern with some of the housing…is that it appears to lack aff ordability inclusion,” she said “This saddens me deeply because I am seeing Madisonville go through gentrifi cation similar to what has happened in Corryville, Over-the-Rhine and part of Walnut Hills.”

to repeal the sign regulations before she ruled on whether to enjoin the ordinance.”

Monday night, Madeira City Council did in fact repeal all size, number and timing requirements pertaining to temporary signs in residential districts.

Repeal affects all temporary signs in residential districts The repeal related not only to political yard signs, but to for sale or rent signs, garage sale signs, business and entertainment signs, signs about charitable events and fundraisers as well as personal messages such as welcoming someone home and notices of construction or renovation work underway.

“In an eff ort to be not only compliant with case law, but to be above reproach, Madeira City Council has taken a scalpel to the sign code relative to temporary signs in residential districts,” Madeira City Manager Tom Moeller said.

On Monday, before the city council meeting, Moeller cited the Sixth Circuit ruling when he issued a moratorium on enforcing Madeira’s political yard-sign regulations until at least the Nov. 5 elections.

Moeller said the city now will carefully draft new sign regulations in line with all relevant laws and court rulings.

Madeira’s sign regulations were originally enacted in 1985 and, before Monday night, were last amended in 2005, Moeller said.

It's not over Oppenheimer said the repeal of the city’s political yard-sign regulations does not mean the immediate end of his federal lawsuit against Madeira.

“The lawsuit will continue, and we will seek monetary damages,” Oppenheimer said.

Meet Ruby, the Blue Ash Police Department’s new K9 offi cer Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Blue Ash Police Department has fi nally revealed the name of its new police K9.

Ruby, who also answers to Ruby-Roo, is a 19-month old Dutch Shepard who is currently in training. Ruby and her offi cer, Erik Nelson, will continue training for a few more weeks before coming home to Blue Ash, offi cials said.

In August the police department announced Ruby’s arrival as she entered training at Shallow Creek Kennels in Pennsylvania in the detection of narcotics.

“She loves hugs and meeting new people, but she is also going to have a nose for crime-fi ghting,” the department said.

Police said she will be hitting the streets with Offi cer Nelson in the new Community Impact Unit in late October.

Norwood teen spends hours a week cleaning up trash in the community Brittany Harry Fox19

A 13-year-old has made it her mission to help try to keep the community clean by picking up trash.

Morgan Dause spends a lot of her time picking up trash in her community in Norwood, with a bucket in one hand and a garbage grabber in the other.

“If it’s close to the curb, I’ll pick it up,” she said.

It all started last year when her mom says she had to clean up on school grounds in class.

Dause loved it so much that she decided to continue doing it.

“It’s good for the planet because the earth is very sick. I have to make it all feel better,” she said.

She spends about 30 minutes a day collecting any trash she can get her eyes on.

“We let her do our block by herself, but if she goes off our route, we go with her,” said her mother, Rachelle Dause.

The Norwood Police Department noticed her hard work and rewarded her

with gift cards to her favorite places.

“It’s great and the best part about it is, she enjoys doing it,” Dause’s mother said. “She doesn’t do it because she feels like she has to or we are telling her to or anything like that. She just truly loves doing it. She loves to be busy, she loves to clean up and she gets a lot of joy from it.”

When Morgan is done with her route for the day, she throws all the trash away at home.

Here’s how much it will cost to buy into top school districts Randy Tucker Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Want to buy into Greater Cincinnati’s top school districts? There’s a little good news this year.

July home values in two of the top 10 school districts in the Cincinnati metro area declined slightly from the same month a year ago, according to a new report from Re/Max. The top-rated Indian Hill Exempted Village School District and No. 6-ranked Mariemont City Schools district saw median home prices fall by about 3% and 4%, respectively, Re/Max fi gures show.

Still, overall home values in the Top 10 school districts remained pricey, averaging just over $369,000, according to Re/Max fi gures.

That’s more than a $175,000 premium over the July median home price of $193,950 for the Cincinnati area alone, according to the latest fi gures from the Cincinnati Area Board of Realtors.

The July median home price in Northern Kentucky – which has two of the Top 10 school districts on the Re/Max list - was $184,950, according to the Northern Kentucky Association of Realtors.

The school districts on Re/Max’s list were rated by school-ranking website, Niche.com.

Niche’s rankings are based on data collected and analyzed by the U.S. Department of Education on academic and student life, along with test scores, college data and ratings collected from users.

Homebuyers, with or without children, often prioritize schools when buying a home, said Donna Deaton, a Realtor at Re/Max Victory in Liberty Township.

Homes in good school districts tend to hold their value and sell faster than homes in lower-quality school districts, Deaton explained.

However, homes in better school districts also tend to have higher maintenance and upkeep costs, as well as higher property taxes and insurance premiums.

“The reality is you will often pay a little more to live in a top school district,” Deaton said. But “long term, buying in a good school district often proves to be a smart investment. Even in a slower housing market, homes located in top school districts will continue to be sought after.”

Black-eyed pea stew off ers tantalizing aroma Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

Hard to believe that September has passed and we’re into the fi rst week of October.

The corn stalks have turned a dark tan, which means it’s time to cut them down for bundling. Corn stalks make a nice autumn display.

We prop them up behind the straw bales alongside the outhouse.

The little ones put pumpkins, squash and gourds on top of the bales and that’s our decorating eff ort for fall.

So good black-eyed pea stew

I’m hoping Mother Nature’s creatures don’t take bites out of the pumpkins and squash like they did last year.

I’m also harvesting late planted kale and spinach.

One of those will go into this yummy black-eyed pea stew.

Red wine or cider vinegar for passing (opt but good)

I have fond memories of this stew which I fi rst ate at daughter-in-law Jessie’s house. I distinctly remember the tantalizing aroma that wafted out as I opened her kitchen door.

Instructions Film bottom of soup pot with olive oil. Add onion and sausage; cook until onion is a bit soft and sausage browns.

Some of you have told me you make your own version of this stew. That’s what makes this column special to me. You take a recipe from me, tweak it to make it your own. So what I’ve done here is incorporate some of your suggestions, adapting the stew to make it a true Community kitchen recipe.

Stir in 5 cups broth; bring to a simmer, scraping pan to loosen browned bits.

Stir in peas, salt, peppers, garlic and bay leaves. Cover and simmer 30 minutes. If necessary, add more broth, starting with 1 cup.

Ingredients

Uncover, add tomatoes and cook 20 minutes or until liquid begins to thicken and peas are tender. (One reader smooshed the beans down a bit with a potato masher).

2 cups dried black-eyed peas, soaked and drained (check out my abouteating.com site for soaking instructions) or 5-6 cups frozen black eyed peas, thawed

Stir in cider vinegar and greens; simmer 10 minutes, remove bay leaves and serve. Pass the red wine vinegar!

Olive oil 1 large onion, diced 1

⁄ 2 to 1 pound skinless Kielbasa or turkey sausage, sliced

Tips

Up to 8 cups low-sodium, low-fat chicken or vegetable broth

Soup freezes well.

Black-eyed peas: good for you

Salt and pepper to taste

Low in fat, sodium and cholesterol free, 1/2 cup of cooked black eyed peas provide more than 20% of the daily recommended amount of fi ber.

2 bay leaves Crushed red pepper flakes to taste - start with 1/4 teaspoon (optional but good)

Black eyed pea stew. RITA HEIKENFELD/PROVIDED

1 nice clove garlic, minced 2 bay leaves 28 oz can diced tomatoes

Splash cider vinegar, to taste Kale or spinach

Kale vs spinach Kale is a member of the mustard family, and has a stronger flavor than spinach. This soup is a good candidate for kale. Not a kale fan? Spinach, or even Swiss chard, is a good sub.

Taking flight with project-based learning It’s the fi rst day of school. Inside the Media Center at Blue Ash Elementary, third-grade students are rushing around with arms full of straws, tape, string, and apples.

Media Center Specialist Jennifer Kolde has challenged students to design and build a wrecking ball capable of knocking over a group of markers. The sky’s the limit, but students have fi ve minutes to get into groups, decide on a design, pick out their materials, and test and tweak their prototypes, learn from their failures, and celebrate their suc-

cesses together. This is what the education world calls project-based learning.

Sycamore Schools has embraced the innovative educational philosophy across all grade levels and subject areas.

Project-based learning (PBL) encourages a return to “learning by doing” rather than focusing on book-learning.

“Project-based learning is a dynamic classroom approach which puts students in the center as they actively explore real-world problems,” said Kelly Wegener, curriculum director. “Students learn the standards at a deep level through projects that involve choice, inquiry, and student ownership.”

Students learn critical-thinking, problem-solving, and group collaboration thatused to be learned in college or on the job. PBL also inspires a love of learning that classical teaching styles may not stir in all types of students.

At E.H. Greene Intermediate, about half of the teachers are using this teaching method. “ Mallory Bonbright, Sycamore Community Schools

Sports Madeira’s comeback eff ort falls short to Indian Hill J.L. Kirven Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The Madeira Mustangs football team sunk to its knees with their heads down, gasping for air. Their royal blue jerseys were soaked navy. Some players fought tears.

But after suff ering their fi rst loss of the season, a 31-24 thrilling defeat to their rival Indian Hill at Madeira Stadium on Friday night, Mustangs coach Chris Stewart made sure his team knew one thing.

He was so proud.

“It’s not often you can walk off the fi eld following a loss, and say ‘wow, we played so hard,’” the second-year coach said to his team following the game.

Of course, Stewart felt for his Mustangs, who had trailed by 14 at halftime.

He was disappointed that Madeira (4-1, 1-1 Cincinnati Hills League) suff ered its fi rst loss of the season. But the way the Mustangs battled after a disastrous start, made the defeat feel like less of a loss and more of a lesson.

Indian Hill (4-1, 2-0 CHL) was looking for its sixth-straight over the Mustangs and it found success early.

On the fi fth play of the game, senior quarterback Tre Lopez lit the match that ignited the Braves off ense. After making a Mustang miss, Lopez raced up the up the sideline for 59 yards and then scored from 13- yards out three plays later.

Madeira’s off ense entered averaging 39 points per game but was smothered in the fi rst half. Sam Autry the CHL’s leading quarterback couldn’t get his high-powered off ense going, probably because of he was on his back, thanks to the pressure brought by Indian Hill’s Zach Osterhues.

“We got punched in the mouth physically in the fi rst half,” Stewart said.

And while the Mustangs struggled, the Braves thrived.

Lopez led the Braves off ense with precision and Charley Sumerel did the rest. The 6-foot-2 junior took two Mustangs with him into the endzone to widen the Braves lead to 14.

Autry tried to gain some momentum, but the Braves’ pressure forced him to his back foot and the ball into the arms

of Braves cornerback Amari Wedgewood.

Indian Hill carried the momentum and a 14-point lead into halftime.

But the game was far from over. And Autry made sure his team knew that.

“I was telling my guys to keep their heads up,” Autry said. “I knew we had a fi ghting chance.”

After taking the Braves best shot, Madeira started throwing back.

Autry looked to his best receiver, senior Lee Megois and put a drive together.

After taking so many hits in the fi rst half, Autry returned the favor lowering his shoulder and crashing his way in for a 3-yard touchdown.

That was a spark, but the momentum still lied with the Braves.

Indian Hill quickly responded with a See MADEIRA, Page 2B

St. Xavier football edges Moeller in tight matchup Matt Huffmon

Special to Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

When it comes to rivalry games of any kind, most coaches will tell you their philosophy is to look past the opposing teams track record. St. Xavier’s Steve Specht took that route when preparing his team for rival Moeller, who entered 1-3.

His Bombers outlasted the Crusaders 27-24 Friday evening at the University of Cincinnati’s Nippert Stadium.

“It’s just GCL-South football,” St. Xavier head coach Steve Specht said.

“These are true rivalry games and most of these kids grew up going to grade school together. It’s a whole diff erent animal this time of year… Moeller’s a good football team who has played a heck of a schedule. Records don’t matter in the GCL South.”

While it may sound cliché, it truly

was a tale of two halves.

Moeller speedster Carrington Valen-

tine ran the opening kickoff 99-yards for a touchdown, breaking numerous tackles before cutting at midfi eld and outrunning everybody.

St. Xavier was able to weather the storm and went into halftime with the majority of the momentum.

The Bombers caught the Crusaders defense off guard with their no-huddle off ense, as senior quarterback Matthew Rueve carved apart the Moeller secondary for 234 yards on 21-of-31 passing before the half.

“You never want to see a kickoff return for a touchdown like that. It just takes the wind out of your sails,” Specht said. “I thought we played on our heels most of the fi rst half on defense. We had the throttle down off ensively.”

Rueve would fi nish 31-of-46 passing for 341 yards to go along with three touchdowns. Rueve found his tight end Marshall Lang, a Northwestern commit, over the middle for a 23-yard score and

wide receiver Liam Cliff ord on a 72-yard screen pass for a touchdown to end the fi rst quarter.

The Crusaders countered with the speed of their own wide receivers. Senior quarterback Drew Altemuehle hit sophomore Brandon White on a slant route and turned on the speed for a 66yard score.

After forcing a St. Xavier punt, Altemuehle found senior Anthony Sledge, who raced up the right sideline for a 70yard touchdown as the numerous members of the Bombers secondary dove at his ankles.

St. Xavier responded with two touchdowns in the fi nal 3:35 of the half — a 27-yard bulldozing run by running back Kellen Newman and a 9-yard pass from Rueve to Cliff ord.

Newman rushed for 97 yards on 20 carries, while Cliff ord fi nished with 173 See RIVALRY, Page 2B

Your move, Mustangs.

Autry keep lowering his shoulder and Megois tore his way through the Braves defense with slants. There was no time for talk between the Mustangs two best weapons, though.

“We don’t need to talk; it’s just brainwaves,” Autry said.

Soon the score was 21-14, after another Autry rushing touchdown. The momentum from the off ense carried over into the defense. The Mustangs pulled closer with a fi eld goal.

The bleachers rocked in excitement.

But with six minutes remaining, and the Braves charging down the fi eld, if Madeira didn’t make a stop its comeback hopes would die.

They weren’t going out like that.

The Mustangs held the Braves to a fi eld goal and were in a one-possession game.

Then it happened.

On 3rd and 10 at their own 2-yard line, Autry heaved up a pass that landed right into Megois hands as he was reaching the full length of his stride.

“Are you having fun, yet gentleman!” coach Stewart belted toward his players who had the momentum on its side.

Madeira had a chance, but the drive felt desperate and depleted. Fans start-

yards on 13 catches.

The second half was a classic GCLSouth defensive battle that included six punts. With neither team putting up points midway through the fourth quarter, St. Xavier drove deep into Moeller territory. Rueve completed a bullet to Cliff ord inside the 10-yard line. After breaking a tackle, Cliff ord fumbled before he could extend the ball over the goal line and Moeller recover.

“We moved the ball well but we just stalled on all the drives,” Specht said.

The turnover proved not pivotal, as Crusaders went three-and-out and punted from their own end zone. After forcing a punt with 2:34, Moeller had one last try to put points on the board.

Altemuehle was unable to fi nd opening in the secondary, as he was sacked twice and fumbled on 3rd and long. The

Helmets sank. Eyes got puff y.

The handshakes at the end of the game felt like insult to injury, maybe next year. The Mustangs will be the hated Braves.

But before tears could fall, before hope could be crushed the Mustangs embraced pride.

And the challenge of never feeling defeat again.

“I felt our program got better as a football team,” Stewart said. “the kids need to understand that you may lose on the scoreboard. But sometimes you win because your team got better.”

COMMUNITY NEWS Launch Party benefi ts Karama Connection serving orphaned children in Tanzania Cincinnati native Connie Naber visited the East African country of Tanzania back in 2005 and returned determined to stay connected. She saw fi rsthand how poverty and the AIDS pandemic across Africa had left so many children without parents and the overwhelming burden placed on society in caring for these children. Upon returning she created a non-profi t organization known as The Karama Connection to help a group of orphaned and abandoned children, and assure that they were well-cared for, fed and properly educated.

Today, Naber is the proud, adoptive mother of 15 children who reside in a house with a live-in local staff that Connie rents in Arusha, Tanzania. Through her foundation, the children have a home, healthy food, education, medical support, caregivers and loads of love.

The current group of kids range from fi ve to eighteen years old. Connie visits twice a year and often brings along some volunteers. When she’s not physically in Arusha she’s often checking in via Skype from her home in Cincinnati — asking about chores, homework, visits to the clinic, and who’s eaten their vegetables. The kids are thriving and the stigma is fading away.

When Dr. Jon Mendelsohn, Medical Director of Advanced Cosmetic Surgery & Laser Center met Connie Naber in 2015, he knew that he wanted to get involved. On June 21, 2016 Mendelsohn, his wife and two teenaged children, traveled to the East African country of Tanzania to meet Connie’s children, many of whom are HIV positive.

Team Mendelsohn came armed with medical supplies, art projects, t-shirts and other learning materials for the children and were greeted with open arms and lots of hugs and love by both the children and staff .

While in Tanzania, Dr. Mendelsohn performed a successful surgical procedure on the lip of a boy named Muksin who is 15 years old. He was assisted by his wife and daughter, as well as one of the children named Cecelia who has aspirations of becoming a physician one day.

Mendelsohn also brought along a pair of green surgical scrubs for each of the children to wear so that they could all show their support for Muksin and the surgical team that day.

Dr. Mendelsohn has continued to support Connie and Karama Cares

He will also be donating a portion of proceeds from his offi cial “Studio A” Launch Party which takes place the evening of Wednesday, October 9 to the Karama Connection, with the goal of raising up to $10,000 by October 31.

More specifi cally, attendees will be helping out one of Connie’s kids named Aurelia who has recently been accepted at St Augustine University of Tanzania with a full scholarship for her tuition.

She is the fi rst child from Karama to be accepted to a university which is a huge accomplishment. However, she still needs $5000 still needed for room and board, books, travel and health care for the year as well as a laptop, so the donations will be put to very good use!

Anyone and everyone is invited to attend this fun, free event and help a very worthwhile cause, while receiving some pretty sweet perks.

The 5K was a chip-timed event held on the UC Blue Ash College campus. It raised just over $39,000, with the proceeds going to the UC Blue Ash Student Scholarship Fund. This is the sixth year of the UC Blue Ash Dash 5K; it has now generated more than $240,000 for student scholarships.

Participants were able to register their dogs for the 5K. About 30 were signed up and each pup received a special UC Blue Ash 5K bandana for walking or running the course with their owner.

Jeff Kissel, of Cincinnati, won the overall race with a time of 19:21. Kaitlin Price, also of Cincinnati, won the women’s division, coming in at 19.40. In the team competition, the UC Blue Ash Nursing Department took fi rst place with 35 participants.

All the results from the race are available at runningtime.net. Nearly half of the students at UC Blue Ash are the fi rst in their family to attend college and more than 75% work while going to school. The fi nancial support provided through scholarships can often be the key to helping them graduate.

Sponsors for the event were Ohio National Financial Services, UPS, Modern Offi ce Methods, InfoTrust, McCluskey Chevrolet, Brookwood Retirement Community, Ensemble Health Partners, ProSource, Applied Behavioral Services and Q102.

SThanks to all of the volunteers who assisted and to the City of Blue Ash and the Blue Ash Police Department for closing a portion of Plainfi eld and Cooper roads that served as part of the 5K route.

Cincinnati comedy historian to honor Laurel & Hardy BLUE ASH –– Cincinnati’s nationally recognized comedy historian, Lenny Dave, has been invited as a featured performer at this year’s “Oliver Hardy Festival.”

The event, now in its 31st year, honors the enduring legacy of comedy Dave icons, “Laurel & Hardy.”

The festival takes place on Saturday, Oct. 5 in Harlem, Georgia – birthplace of Oliver Hardy.

As an entertaining comedy historian who tours nationally (especially in Florida in the winter), Dave will share his perspective on the festival’s namesake comedy team, as well as several other comedy pioneers, legends and legacies.

Says Dave, “I’m honored, proud and genuinely excited to off er my thoughts on why we loved (and still love) Laurel & Hardy. Stan and Ollie were the right people at the right time with the right comedy product to fi nd their way so endearingly into the hearts of humor-hungry movie-goers everywhere. And, their legendary fi lm comedy still delights audiences today.”

Dave is a 1975 graduate of Walnut Hills High School. Earning his degree from Miami University in Mass Communication, he was active in the campus Speakers Bureau. It was from there that he launched into giving presentations to area civic groups on the life and career of Harpo Marx (The Marx Brothers). Dave would later meet Mrs. Harpo

Marx (Susan) in 1993 out in Palm Springs, California.

Even though Lenny Dave is not a doctor, he has been known to perform successful surgery on the human spirit. In 2014, he was selected to perform in the inaugural season of the Red Skelton Entertainment Series.

That event coincided with the opening of an impressive, new museum in Vincennes, Indiana (birthplace of Red Skelton) dedicated to Red’s legacy of laughter. It was there he had the opportunity to meet Mrs. Red Skelton (Lothian).

Having visited the Laurel & Hardy Museum in Harlem earlier this summer, Dave inquired about the Oliver Hardy Festival. And the rest, as they say, is history; comedy history.

Dave observes, “Laurel & Hardy exemplifi ed a slapstick style of humor, both in silent fi lms and ‘talkies,’ and were one of the very few celluloid entertainers who successfully transcended that cinematic evolution. For that reason alone, their enduring reputation as fi lm’s earliest, funniest comedy team is historically noteworthy. However, despite the uproarious situations in which they frequently found themselves immersed, I believe it was also the steadfast and unbreakable on-screen friendship between Stan and Ollie that made them (and keeps them) so nostalgically beloved.”

Why do people today still fi nd such joy in watching Laurel & Hardy movies?

Dave theorizes, “Friendship is based in emotion. Mirth is a positive, emotional response to Humor. Humor is the process of cognitive perception of life’s incongruous moments. Laughter is often the physical, behavioral response to Mirth. And, Laurel & Hardy beautifully embody the emotional, common denominator of Friendship and Mirth.”

Sound a bit academic? Dave comes by his comedy passion from another angle, too. He is Past President of the professional organization, AATH – the Association for Applied and Therapeutic Humor. This international group of educators, entertainers and diverse medical practitioners is dedicated to the study, practice and promotion of therapeutic humor and laughter.

Putting comedy history into perspective, Dave shares, “Comedians, especially those from the Golden Age, the early days of fi lm and radio, played an invaluable role in helping so many Americans to cope with the stress of both the Great Depression and two wars a world away. These comedians serve as the deep roots of the comedy tree.

Then, in the 1950s and 1960s, the next generation of comedians helped us to acknowledge and confront a tidal wave of societal change in this country. The role and challenge of the comedian is to create laughter through a combination of Chaos, Character and Commentary.

They make us laugh; they entertain us; they make us think. In the heart of comedy, there usually lies a grain of truth… and it’s not always politically correct.”

Of Dave’s work, the Florida Sun Sentinel writes, “An erudite and skillful word picture of comedy history!” Locally, The Kenwood by SeniorStar adds, “First class fun!” Over the years, Dave has appeared regularly at several senior
