BLOC Ministries to open in Cheviot in several weeks

By Kurt Backscheider kbackscheider@communitypress.com

The former home of a congressional campaign is being turned into a thrift store. BLOC Ministries is opening a second-hand store in the Cheviot storefront once occupied by U.S. Rep. Steve Chabot’s campaign headquarters. Dwight Young, who founded BLOC with his wife, Stephanie, said the organization is excited to open the store. He said they hope to have it up and running in the next several weeks. “We have two mission groups who are coming in next week and volunteering to paint the space,” he said. “I think it will take us about a month to get it open and get everything together.” Young said the shop, at 3330 Harrison Ave. across from the Cheviot Post Office, will sell a variety of second-hand merchandise ranging from kitchen items and toys to clothing and furniture. “One hundred percent of the proceeds from what we sell will go toward our mission,” he said. Caitlin Graham, a spokeswoman for Chabot, said, “We will greatly miss our location in Cheviot. Our campaign had many

to accomodate the request.” BLOC Ministries, which operates neighborhood centers and coffee shops in Price Hill and

Cleves, aims to strengthen disadvantaged youth and families through student communities. Young said in addition to the thrift shop serving as a place to raise money for the ministry, it also gives BLOC a place to store extra items it has taking up space at its centers in Price Hill and Cleves. From time to time BLOC finds furniture and clothing for people in need, and he said the new shop allows them to have a central location for storing and distributing items that have been donated to the organization. He said he looks forward to expanding BLOC’s ministry, and he hopes opening the store will benefit Cheviot as well. He said Auctions By Maggie is across the street and there are a few other consignment shops in the area, making it a destination for people who enjoy shopping second-hand. “It will be a nice shopping area,” Young said. “Our store will be well done, and we’ll make sure the area is well kept.” Anyone who has items they would like to donate to BLOC Ministries can call 325-5635 or send an email to info@blochead.com.

WESTWOOD – A fundraising effort is under way to restore the historic bell and clockworks at Westwood School. The Westwood Historical Society is working with Cincinnati Public Schools to ensure the bell and clockworks are part of the school renovation. Westwood School, which has stood at the corner of Harrison and Montana avenues since 1909, is being renovated. An addition is also being built which contains a gymnasium, administrative offices and a new foyer connecting the existing building with the new addition. Westwood Historical Society President Liz Kissel said the existing Westwood School was completed in 1909, but the building’s bell and clockworks date back even further, to the Village of Westwood School. She said the bronze bell crafted by Buckeye Bell Foundry was purchased for the original school building in 1894, and the clockworks made by the E. Howard Clock Co. are also believed to date back to 1894. When the original 19th century

THANKS TO LIZ KISSEL

The 36-inch diameter bronze bell at Westwood School is lifted off the building’s roof in July 2010, before renovation of the building began. village schoolhouse was razed, the bell and clockworks were salvaged and incorporated into the existing school building. “We are trying to get the word out to former students, parents and staff to let them know about our efforts in the hopes that they will make a donation or consider a contribution in memory of some-

one,” Kissel said. “The Westwood Historical Society started the fundraising with a donation and Westwood Civic Association has pledged a donation as well.” She said the bell is still in good condition, and even though the clockworks have not been wound in many, many years, the Verdin Co. has deemed them to be in remarkable shape and in working order. Kissel said the plan is to raise enough money to at least have the bell restored, have a new stand crafted and have the clockworks cleaned and painted for display. Refurbishing the artifacts to the extent needed to put them on display would cost about $19,000. She said the ultimate goal, however, is to also make the clockworks functional by adding a replica clock face and adapting the mechanisms and pendulums so they can operate in the new foyer. Close to $40,000 would need to be raised to make them functional, she said. She said capital funds for the school renovation do not cover the restoration of the bell and clockworks, meaning funds must be raised privately.

How to help

For information on making a taxdeductible donation to the project, visit www.WestwoodHistorical.org or send an email to info@WestwoodHistorical.org. Checks made payable to Westwood Historical Society can be sent to Westwood Historical Society, P.O. Box 11095, Cincinnati, Ohio 45211. Note “Westwood School Bell/Clockworks” on the check. The renovation of Westwood School is scheduled to be completed in spring 2012. Kissel and the members of the historical society hope community organizations and people who have an association with the neighborhood and Westwood School are willing to contribute to the restoration effort. “There are very few artifacts that Westwood has that date to the time of the village,” she said. “Because of the school’s significance in the history of the village of Westwood, being able to restore and display the bell and clockworks helps to tell the story of the beginning of the community … and preserves a part of the school’s history for future generations.”

HUD deal: Not as much housing? Gannet News Service Cincinnati’s housing authority agreed June 9 to build or buy more public housing units for the poor in Green Township. But the final number may not be as high as many people think. That’s because negotiations on the Green Township deal went on so long and became so confusing that even some of the housing authority board members who voted on the plan aren’t clear about what it means. The bottom line is that instead of 68 new public housing units, Green Township actually might end up with about 40 or less. “I’m completely confused at this point,” said Pete Witte, a board member who opposed the deal. “This is crazy.” The deal approved last week is supposed to resolve a fair-housing complaint that accused the Cincinnati Metropolitan Housing Authority of keeping public housing out of Green Township for several years. The case has become a referendum of sorts on the gradual movement of public housing to the suburbs, and it has stirred outrage in Green Township among residents who fear more lowincome units will drive down their property values. Much of that outrage centered on the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s demand that 68 new public housing units be added to the 27 units already in Green Township. Several housing authority board members repeated that figure Thursday before voting 3-2 in favor of the settlement with HUD. They said the deal required 68 new units, some of which would be paid for in part by private investors. But hours after the vote, HUD officials said something different: What HUD really wants is a total of 68 units. That means no more than 41 new units – since the township already has 27 – and possibly less if some of the

existing units are counted twice because they are multi-family dwellings. “We want a total of 68 public housing units,” said Maurice McGough, HUD’s regional director for fair housing. He said he’s not surprised some board members and others were confused about HUD’s goal, especially since earlier drafts of the settlement specifically stated HUD wanted 68 “additional” public housing units. McGough said the revised settlement was being rewritten long into the night June 10 and the wording was still being tinkered with Thursday. “The language probably wasn’t as clear as our lawyers would like it,” McGough said. “I wouldn’t be surprised if some folks voted for something they didn’t understand.” Green Township officials, who had vowed to fight 68 new units, were cautiously optimistic after learning of the change. But they remained wary of the deal and said the confusion does not make them confident in HUD’s ability to oversee the new public housing units – however many are ultimately built. “I’m excited to hear HUD is still willing to negotiate. Hopefully, we can get that number down,” said David Linnenberg, a Green Township trustee. “But I need a lot more information on how these numbers are put together.” Lamont Taylor, the housing authority board’s chairman and a supporter of the deal, said he hopes to get that information out in the coming days and weeks. He said 11th-hour negotiations convinced HUD to lower its demand for 68 units and showed the agency is willing to work with Green Township. “It could be a lot worse. Green Township should be appreciative for what they got,” Taylor said. “They couldn’t ask for anything better.” He said he and HUD should have better explained the deal Thursday before the vote, so residents would

understand that the total number of new units was lower. “People think they’re actually getting more than they’re getting,” he said. “They got a great deal.” Board members Laura Brunner and Marisa Spears joined Taylor in voting for the plan. Witte and William Myles voted against it. Some fair-housing advocates feared the uproar over the vote – and the confusion over the deal – would overshadow the need for more affordable housing in Green Township and other communities. They noted that almost half of public housing residents are children and 40 percent of households have elderly residents. They said the bad economy has left many middle-class families in need of housing assistance. “I hope both Green Township and CMHA will make this a model of public housing working, and that the model will be repeated in other neighborhoods,” said Bob Newman, the Cincinnati lawyer who filed the fair housing complaint that prompted HUD’s investigation. After the vote Thursday, Linnenberg said he expected trustees to fight back by opting out of a countywide cooperation agreement with HUD that is being considered by Hamilton County commissioners. The agreement allows HUD to add public housing units with Community Development Block Grant money in any community that participates. If communities opt out, they are ineligible for millions of dollars in grant money for street repairs, park improvements and other projects. Linnenberg said he didn’t know if that would change if HUD’s demand for new public housing units dropped from 68 to about 40. “I understand we’re not going to end up with zero,” he said. “But I’ve been trying to figure out what a win is, and I don’t know.”

Friday storms hit the West Side hard Gannett News Service ADDYSTON – A round of storms left an unpleasant Friday night and dreary Saturday morning. Several school buses, homes and businesses along River Road in Addyston were flooded during Friday’s severe storms. The storm drains couldn’t keep up with the 1.5 inches of rain that drenched the region between 7 and 8 p.m. “For one hour, that’s a lot

of rain,” said Andrew Snyder, meteorologist with the National Weather Service. Mark Hoffman, who owns Shamrock Family Tavern on Main Street, said he had to keep customers from leaving when the winds started blowing just before 7 p.m. “There were branches blowing across the front of the doors, horizontally – they weren’t even hitting the ground,” he said. “It was just unbelievable, probably the

hardest wind I’ve ever seen in Cincinnati.” When the rain came, it was impossible to even see the cars across the street, he said. When the storm settled about half an hour later, Hoffman walked to the back deck of the restaurant, where he said he saw “the back end of a bus floating.” The rain flooded seven buses with the Three Rivers School District in the bus

garage next door. Parents who volunteered to help clean the buses Saturday morning said there didn’t seem to be any damage to the buses and that it’s happened before. School officials could not be reached. Hoffman was heading back to his restaurant to check on the conditions. About three feet of water flooded the basement, damaging air conditioners and two freezers full of food.

‘Five-points’ to be reconfigured Group shows off gardens June 18 Green Township residents are invited to a community meeting to learn more about plans to reconfigure the intersection at Bridgetown, Ebenezer and Taylor roads. The township is working with the Ohio Department of Transportation and the Hamilton County Engineer to improve the intersection, which is commonly known as the “five-points” intersection. Green Township is hosting a community meeting at 7 p.m. Thursday, June 23, at Nathanael Greene Lodge, to discuss the project with residents and property and business owners. “This intersection has been a sore spot with local residents and people passing through the area, and it’s time to address the problem,” said Fred Schlimm, director of public services for Green Township. Motorists experience long delays and backups at

the intersection, particularly during rush hour, resulting in frustration and auto accidents. Following the recommendations of a preliminary study performed last year by TEC Engineering, Green Township plans to reconfigure the intersection from a five-leg intersection to a more conventional four-leg intersection by relocating the Taylor Road connection to a point farther west along Bridgetown Road. Other improvements include the addition of dedicated turn lanes to the intersection, completion of sidewalk connections and improved road signage. These changes are expected to reduce the number of accidents that occur within the area, improve traffic flow, decrease delays and reduce mobile source emissions. Preliminary planning and design for the reconfiguration project is under

way. The project team will complete a series of environmental and ecological surveys, topographical surveys and geophysical investigations. Information gained through the surveys will be used to determine the preferred alignment for the relocation of Taylor Road and develop preliminary construction plans. “The community will see project area surveying begin this summer, but actual construction is expected to start in 2015,” Schlimm said. The reconfiguration project should be completed by winter 2016. The meeting will include a formal presentation, question and answer session and an open house in which attendees can visit information stations focused on various project elements and speak directly with Green Township and project team representatives.

April showers actually bring June flowers, too, and you can see some on the annual Monfort Heights/ White Oak Community Association’s Garden Tour. The 13th annual garden tour is 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, June 18. This is a rain or shine event, and there is no rain date. This year, the garden tour has a new chairwoman, Jackie Golay. Her Brigade Drive garden is on the tour, so in addition to planning the tour, she has been working to get her own yard showworthy. A retired chemistry teacher from Colerain High School, Golay said she has always been interested in plants and she may have gotten the gardening bug from her dad, who enjoyed vegetable gardens. Although her back yard does not the sun exposure

for veggies, it enjoys the cool shade that encourages lush hostas that line landscaped terraces drifting downhill to a creek bed. She says this year’s collection of gardens showcases a variety of sizes and features. The gardeners signed on in December, so they’ve had plenty of time to get ready. Golay said the wet April was a boon, as plants are large and lush thanks to all the water they received early in the spring. The tour features five private gardens. Along the tour, ticketholders will have refreshments and bottled water, and will receive a discount at White Oak Garden Center and $1 off a glass of menu wine at Piazza Discepoli in the White Oak Shopping Center on the day of the tour. In addition to seeing the gardens, the tour also offers a plant sale at the Thrasher Drive garden and an art

sale at the garden on Haubner Road. Refreshments will be served at the garden on Brigade Drive and there is shuttle service to the garden on Gaines Road because of limited parking. Catch the shuttle at West Fork Christian Fellowship Church, 5636 West Fork Road. The association’s annual Summer Garden Tours are the group’s principal means of raising funds used for its beautification projects, newsletters and other programs. Tickets are available on a presale basis for $8 through Friday, June 17, at White Oak Garden Center, 3579 Blue Rock Road, Mattfeld Florists and Greenhouses, 8730 Cheviot Road, or at the Monfort Heights branch of the Cheviot Savings Bank, 5550 Cheviot Road. Tickets are $10 and may be purchased at any of the gardens on the day of the tour.

Mercy mock trial team in top 8 Members of the Mother of Mercy High School’s mock trial team wrapped up their season by finishing in the top eight in the quarterfinals of the state competition. The three-day competition began with 28 teams competing in two trials each. Mercy defeated North Olmstead in the first trial with Cleves resident Elizabeth Bley winning Best Witness and Covedale resident Mary Burger winning Best Attorney. In the second trial, Mercy

defeated Georgetown with Emily Diersing of Monfort Heights winning Best Attorney. The team advanced to the quarterfinals, finishing in the top 8 with a 10-1 season record. There are 360 mock trial teams in the state. This was the second time in three years that Mercy’s team has made it to the state competition. In 2009, the team finished in the top 16. Other members of Mercy’s mock trial team are Brianna

McCrea of Dent, Crissie Raines of Cheviot, Catherine Schultz of Harrison, and Halle Specht and Katherine Ruwe, both of Monfort Heights. This year’s legal advisors are Molly Breyer-Vance, a member of the class of 1996; Katie Miltner, 1998, and Nancy Schmidtgoessling, 1969. Current faculty members and alumnae Chris Kroner, 1980, and Melissa Antons, 1999, moderate Mercy’s mock trial.

Kids help kids affected by ’Bama tornados

When 6-year-old Jake Rhodes saw the devastation after tornados hit Alabama recently, he decided to do something to help. He asked his mom Katie and they found Shoeboxes for Kids and Facebook and Jake found his way. That way turned into more than 100 shoeboxes filled with crayons, paper, games, school supplies, candy and other small items children normally have but were lost to the storms. “I think the philosophy of kids helping other kids is a good thing,” Katie Rhodes said. “I think they know this could happen to us.” So Jake organized the drive at Springmyer Elementary School. What started as perhaps a few shoeboxes turned into the more than 100. “Jake really wanted to help them,” his mother said. And it’s not the first time he helped those who needed help. He collected $700 after the earthquake struck Haiti. “He got a couple of shoeboxes

on his own, but he also sat in front of school to collect the,” Katie said. “He was so excited. He put his nose to the grindstone.” Then they had to find a way to get them to Alabama. Enter the Postal Annex store on Harrison Avenue in Dent and owner Mike Campisano. “A woman called asked about the best and cheapest way to ship (the shoeboxes),” Campisano said. “I said I’ll take care of it. But it expanded a little bit.” He still shopped all of the boxes for free. He has owned the Postal Annex there for about five years and never has none done anything like this before. He has donated his shipment services as part of auctions. Laura Bennison, an employee at Postal Annex who helped pack the shoeboxes, said the donation were heartfelt. “You can tell how nice the kids were to do this, and how sweet it is to think of other kids,” Bennison said.

McAuley staff lead service projects McAuley High School students perform over 26,000 hours of documented service to the community and school each year. Two of these ongoing service opportunities are led by McAuley staff, including Cindy Meyer, McAuley a member of the class of 1978 and an administrative assistant at the school, and Patty Thomas, class of 1977, and study hall proctor and library assistant. Meyer and Thomas take a small group of students each month to Tender Mercies, where they provide and serve a meal to 15 homeless people. Tender Mercies is a residential program for the homeless and

those transitioning from homelessness located in Over-theRhine. The entire meal is prepared at McAuley after school, packed to stay hot or cold, and then driven to the home on 12th Street. Everything for the meal is toted downtown: Food, drinks, ice, plates, utensils, napkins, condiments, etc. The meal is served to the residents and any leftovers are donated to residents of other Tender Mercies facilities. A recent meal included homemade soups and chili, which were cooked by McAuley’s Creative Cooking Class, sandwiches, chips, fruit, drinks

and dessert. Holiday meals may feature ham or roast beef. The whole process takes about four to five hours. Thomas has coordinated the meals for five years and is assisted by student project chairs Megan Lawwill and Megan Sparks, who are active in McAuley’s Key Club. “I love the looks on the people’s faces, and hearing them thank us. It makes it all worthwhile,” Sparks said. “I like the fact that the residents know we don’t always feel comfortable in the neighborhood, and so they help us carry things in and out,” Lawwill said.

Senior Caitlin Roberts, who helped with the most recent Tender Mercies meal, is also the Key Club chair of the mentoring project at Mount Airy School, where McAuley students tutor five days a week.

Meyer and Thomas, together with Charlene Fey, class of 1965 and office manager, also organize gifts on a regular basis for the group For Aids Children Everywhere. FACE hosts parties for the children coinciding with holidays.

Chabot: Communities should fight Section 8 housing By Marc Emral memral@communitypress.com

Section 8 housing and Housing and Urban Development were the main topics U.S. Rep Steve Chabot (R–1st District) discussed at a town hall meeting June 8 at Nathanael Greene Lodge in Green Township. Chabot told about 175 people that he would urge the county to fight HUD’s plan to put 68 new public housing units in the township. “I’ve lived in Westwood for 50 years and I have seen the very detrimental effects (Section 8 housing) has on Westwood,” he said “Crime rate is up significantly. Drug dealing is up significantly. Property values are down significantly.” He said HUD’s threat of pulling federal money if the county does not go along with the plan should be

fought. “My advice to you is to talk with the local offices, especially the commissioners and the board, and urge them to basically stand up to HUD.” He wants HUD to add these requirements to those who receive housing assistance. • They cannot be a family member living in the housing who is a felon. • It is temporary, no more than five years. • Require the people who are receiving assistance to work. Among other points he made: • He said the economy is still weaker “than we want to see it.” He thinks the American public and small businesses have a “lack of confidence” in the Federal government. • He would not vote to raise the debt ceiling.

• On Medicare: “My mother and mother-in-law are on it. It needs to be saved. … It’s an important program.” • Health care: Even though the House voted to repeal President Barak Obama’s health care bill, the repeal is not likely to pass the senate and would be vetoed by the president. He thinks the bill will be ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court on a 5-4 vote. • Chabot said there needs to be less dependence on foreign energy sources. He is in favor of drilling for domestic oil, to develop the coal resources of the country, to do more research of renewal energy like wind and solar, and to consider more nuclear energy. • On when to bring troops back from Afghanistan: “If we can get it done this year, but I don’t

He thinks what Obama is doing is correct, in that he’s taking advice from military leaders on the ground. “My concern is that if we pull out right away the Taliban and Al Qaeda will be back in there,” he said. “The instability in Al Qaeda (after the killing of Osama bin Laden) will spill over to Pakistan” which has nuclear weapons. “I think we need further

In addition, Miller was in the National Honor Society, was an Academic O member for four consecutive years, ranked in the top four percent of her class, and was awarded the Presidential Scholarship Award to attend the Mount. Miller, the daughter of Christina and Steve Miller, is planning on majoring in biology. • St. Xavier High School senior Peter Volck committed to wrestle at John Carroll University next school year. He is the son of Brian Volck and Jill Huppert. Volck wrestled at 189 pounds for the Bombers as a junior and moved to the heavyweight division as a senior. Despite weighing in at only 215 pounds, he still managed to ring up six pins among his nine victories senior year. “As a two-year starter, Peter was one of the most versatile and enthusiastic wrestlers on the team,” head coach Tim McDonald said. “He made a great sacrifice for us to wrestle up a class, working for the good of the team and not for his individual benefit. Peter chose John Carroll based on its academic reputation, Jesuit tradition and successful wrestling team. In college he is expected to wrestle at the 197pound weight class.”

DOES ANYTHING ACTUALLY WORK? THE ANSWER IS YES

The only approach that makes sense comes from a Company called Ohio Male Clinic. There’s one here in Woodbury. The Ohio Male Clinic specializes in ED. That’s it. That’s all they do. They seem to be the only ones who realize that ED affects every man differently. They have uniquely (and very successfully) combined 4 medically approved ingredients for ED into over 150 different formulations. These ingredients make “it” start happening immediately for over 95% of men (compare that statistic to those of the well known pills). In fact, the Ohio Male Clinic offers one simple promise. “If they can’t make “it” start happening on the ﬁrst visit, you pay a cent.” That’s their guarantee. REGARDLESS OF YOUR AGE Regardless of your medical history... the Ohio Male Clinic have satisﬁed patients from 21 to 95. If you suffer from ED you should call Ohio Male Clinic today at (513) 791-MALE.

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION Anyone who knows me will tell you I’m a straight up guy. I’ve held off commenting on the erectile dysfunction controversy until I was able to really do my homework. Well the results are in. ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION IS A FACT OF LIFE Whether it occurs due to an accident, a recent surgery (prostate cancer is a biggie) or simply a natural change due to aging, the accompanying loss of self-esteem is something that affects millions of men everyday. In a nutshell that seems to be the problem (nobody want to admit that every man’s ED problem is different and requires different treatment.) WHAT COLOR IS YOUR FAVORITE PILL? Drug companies have jumped all over this like a, well...a drug company. I don’t have to say the names of the pills. We’ve all seen the ads. They’ve spent millions trying to convince you that one pill ﬁts all... When in actuality they fail over 50% of the time. That’s just a fact.

Do you believe cell phones are possible cancer-causing agents, putting them in the same category as the pesticide DDT? “I have no idea about such a claim and it appears that even the ‘experts’ can’t agree.” B.N. “Absolutely. I also believe there was a shooter on the grassy knoll in Dallas, Barack Obama wasn’t born in Honolulu, and the government caused 9/11. Give me a break.” M.S.

“I would not know whether they cause cancer, funny thing I have never used a cell phone but just lost half my ear to cancer. To bad I had not used a cell phone or maybe I could sue for millions of dollars similar to the tobacco suits.” L.S. “Cell phones are in the same cancer category as DDT. Also in the same category is coffee and similar harmless substances. A bigger hazard is what is happening (or not happening) when hours a day are spent NOT communicating with other human beings but only with electronic remnants of them.” D.H. “I sure hope not! Our world relies on cell phones so much it would be hard to talk people out of their cell phones. Especially my grandchildren! “In some ways it makes sense that using a cell phone could cause cancer. Just as the use of microwave ovens caused a panic years ago, the cell phone scare will encourage the government to check into the possibility and make tough decisions if needed.” K.K. “Based on what I have read so far, cell phones are possible cancer-causing agents. Obviously, more research should be done as this could be serious… I hope they don’t fudge the numbers like they did with the global warming data.” D.K.

Next questions Should teachers be allowed to defend themselves against aggressive students? Why or why not?

COLUMNS

As the budget debate unfolds Democrats remain united in their ruinous state of criticizing every attempt by republicans to save this county from shambles. Since October 2008, when we came to the edge of a global financial meltdown, congress has spent $500 billion on earmarks; 80 percent of that by Democrats. We are told that earmarks represent an unimportant percent of the overall budget. Yet now when Democrats want to cut a meager $100 million they tell us how sig-

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Pride is leading

“More studies have to be conducted before we start putting cancer causing disclaimers on cell phones. For every claim that says they do promote cancer, there is a study that says the opposite. Folks should be more concerned about the loss of hearing being an epidemic in a few years due to the high decibels being drummed through ear-buds. Good heavens, I see toddlers with ear-buds attached to everything from a portable DVD player to an iPod.” C.A.S.

On the other hand, $500 billion is 3 percent of our

total national debt. I have long since coined the Pelois/Reid Congress as the “Greed Infested Cesspool” for the deadly path they are taking America down. Well the queen of deadly sins is pride. “I” deserve private jets as America falls into ruin; “I” deserve to piss billions away on self serving earmarks as Americans lose jobs at an unparalleled rate. The path to hell is through pride. Al Ostendorf Cheviot

Math Bowl

Seven juniors and four sophomores from McAuley High School participated in the 26th annual Math Bowl at the University of Cincinnati. The two junior teams and the sophomore team had to solve two sets of problems using their mathematical skills, problem-solving strategies and creativity. The junior team of Gabrielle Bolin, Sarah Pierce and Samantha Rack received the highest rating, superior. The remaining junior team (Kelly O’Shaughnessy, Marie Stevenot, Zoe Widmer and Megan Williams) and the sophomore team (Samantha Nissen, Olivia Schaefer, Brenna Silber and Claire Tonnis) each earned excellent ratings. The students were accompanied to the competition by math teachers Barb Hekler and Jan Huxel.

Water protects public health, provides family fun Summertime and water. What would summer be like without a dip in the pool, a run through the sprinkler or a cold glass of tap water on a hot muggy day? People use water every day for both recreational uses and household uses such as cooking, cleaning and bathing. At Greater Cincinnati Water Works, our job is to provide you with a dependable supply of the highest quality water each and every time you turn on the tap, fill up the pool or let your children run through the sprinkler. During the past century, many improvements in the health, prosperity and longevity of the US population can be attributed to improvements in water quality. For the past 100 years, GCWW has been a leader in developing and implementing those improvements. In 1907 amidst a national

typhoid outbreak, GCWW built the second water treatment plant in the United States to use rapid-sand filtration and cases of typhoid Biju George in Cincinnati Community dropped draPress guest matically. In 1928 columnist water works pioneered powdered activated carbon filtration. Then in 1992, we became the first utility in the nation to implement granular activated carbon treatment with the ability to clean the carbon on-site so it can be reused. Granular activated carbon is cited by the USEPA as one of the best available treatment technologies to remove impurities, such as pharmaceuticals, during drinking

water treatment. Soon we'll add another step – ultraviolet disinfection (UV) to protect against potential microorganisms like cryptosporidium. When operational at the end of 2012, GCWW will be the largest water utility in North America to use UV following sand filtration and granular activated carbon. At GCWW we have our eye on the future. Our engineers, water quality experts and water distribution and supply specialists constantly assess the needs of our customers, identifying areas of demand, monitoring and upgrading our infrastructure and developing a plan to keep water flowing. All the while members of our information technology, business and billing teams research and implement the latest technologies to help keep us on the cutting edge of quality and service.

On behalf of every GCWW employee, I am proud to report that our water meet or exceeded all state and federal health standards in 2010, as it always has. So the next time you fill your swimming pool or water glass, wash your fruits and vegetables or bathe your children, take comfort in knowing that more than 600 people at Greater Cincinnati Water Works take care each and every day to bring you life's necessity – water.

There are different courts in Ohio The primary function of the judicial branch is to fairly and impartially settle disputes according to the law. There are a number of different courts in Ohio that have been established either by the Ohio Constitution or by the legislature. The Supreme Court of Ohio is the highest court in Ohio. Most of its cases are appeals from a court of appeals. The Supreme Court chooses whether to hear most criminal and civil appeals. However, the Supreme Court must accept death penalty appeals and cases in which there have been conflicting opinions from two or more courts of appeals. The Supreme Court establishes rules governing practice and procedures in Ohio’s courts such as the Rules of Evidence, Rules of Civil Procedure and Rules of Criminal Procedure. The Supreme Court also has authority over the admission of attorneys to the practice of law in Ohio and may

discipline attorneys and judges who violate the rules of practice. The Courts of Appeals primary function is to hear appeals from the comBrad mon pleas, Greenberg municipal and courts. Community county Ohio is divided Press guest into 12 appelcolumnist late districts. Each district is served by one court of appeals. Each case is heard and decided by a three-judge panel. The Court of Claims, in Columbus, has original jurisdiction for all civil actions filed against the state of Ohio and its agencies. The Court of Claims also hears appeals from decisions made by the attorney general on claims allowed under the victims of crime act. The Court of Common Pleas is

the only trial court created by the Ohio Constitution. In Hamilton County there are four separate divisions of the Court of Common Pleas: general, domestic relations, juvenile and probate. The general division has original jurisdiction in all felony criminal cases and in all civil cases where the amount in controversy exceeds $15,000. Domestic relations court has jurisdiction over divorce, dissolution, annulment, legal separation, spousal support and allocation of parental rights and responsibilities. Juvenile court hears cases involving minors charged with acts that would be crimes if committed by an adult. Juvenile court also hears cases involving unruly, dependent and neglected children and adult cases regarding paternity, nonsupport and child abuse. Probate court has jurisdiction over the probate of wills and the administration of estates and

guardianships. Probate court also has jurisdiction over the issuance of marriage licenses, adoption proceedings and sanity determinations. Municipal and county courts have jurisdiction over misdemeanor crimes, traffic violations and civil cases where the disputed amount is less than $15,000. These courts also conduct initial bond hearings in felony criminal cases. Mayor’s courts are not a part of the judicial branch of Ohio government and are not courts of record. In fact, Ohio and Louisiana are the only two states that allow mayors to preside over mayor’s court. A mayor is not required to be a lawyer, but may appoint a lawyer to hear cases in mayor’s court. A person convicted in mayor’s court may appeal the conviction to the local municipal or county court. Judge Brad Greenberg presides in Hamilton County Municipal Court.

Ten characteristics of a good father them. No rules imply “You’re a bother to my life, I don’t care what happens to you.” 7. Use praise more than criticism. Punishment is to stop bad behavior, praise is to reinforce and encourage good behavior. Humans never tire of being appreciated. 8. Play together. Spontaneity, games, laughter and recreation create strong bonds and happy memories. They even keep aging dads young at heart. 9. Keep your job in a healthy perspective. The two most important aspects of our lives are the work we do and the love we share. In our day, work-time, money and success are overvalued, and love for children and spouse is risked or undervalued. Keep your priorities straight. 10. Demonstrate what it means to be a man. Primitive-type men repress their emotions (except anger). They consider it unmanly to cry and grieve over significant losses, to act or speak sensitively and be compas-

Mount receives community service award The College of Mount St. Joseph has been named to the 2010 President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll, the highest federal recognition a college or university can receive for its commitment to volunteering, service-learning and civic engagement. Honorees are chosen based on a series of selection factors, including the scope and innovation of service projects, percentage of student partici-

pation in service activities, incentives for service, and the extent to which the school offers academic service learning courses. Last year Mount students gave nearly 34,000 service hours to the community.

may add zest and interest to many a man’s life, a good father does not permit these to stand out as contemporary gods. Father Richard Rohr writes, “The most loving men I have met, the most generous to society and to life, are usually men who also have a lusty sense of life, beauty, pleasure and sex – but they have very realistic expectations of them.” 6. Set parameters. Most people mistake license for freedom. Freedom does not mean being able to do everything and anything we want, but everything we ought. Setting limits produces disciplined and mature offspring. Paradoxically, children seek parameters. Some fathers think they show love for their children by permitting them to do whatever they want. Children’s natural intuition is wiser. Though they gripe about rules, children unconsciously want them. Prudent rules imply parents care enough and love

on-one time. To choose to spend time with our child is a powerful sign to him or her. That doesn’t mean a quantity of time watching TV but qualitative time affording opportunity for all kinds of conversation and interaction. Such a choice says, “You’re important to me and I want to know you better, I want to share what’s inside me with you, and you with me.” 4. Teach values by living them. Honesty, truthfulness, responsibility, dependability, faithfulness, etc. are not just pointed out and verbally extolled. They must be the path being traveled by dad and mom. 5. Acknowledge by your words and actions that you believe God exists. In days of yore, a false machismo boasted that “religion is only for women and children.” A more realistic and intelligent contemporary attitude says, “Spirituality is an important part of everyone’s life.” Though sports, entertainment, and sexual beauty

This column was originally published in 2007. 1. Show your children what real love is. The best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother. Children learn what real love is not from movies or TV scripts, but by modeling – seeing it lived out before their eyes. Growing up in an atmosphere of genuine love teaches kids to feel secure and learn how to love. Love is demonstrated not only in signs of affection and sensitivity, but also in our ability to forgive and sacrifice for the ones we love. 2. Respect. A child’s personal self must not be suffocated or utterly dominated by another, especially by a trusted parent. Separateness must be acknowledged – that I am me and you are you, I have my feelings and you have yours. Though family discipline must be exercised by parents, it must be accomplished in age-appropriate ways without crushing developing egos. 3. Spend quality one-

“ This new valve can save lives

IN INDIVIDUALS WHO MAY NOT OTHERWISE BE GIVEN

THE OPPORTUNITY FOR SURGICAL VALVE REPLACEMENT.” DR. DEAN KEREIAKES, PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR FOR THE PARTNER II TRIAL OF TRANSCATHETER AORTIC VALVE REPLACEMENT AT THE CHRIST HOSPITAL HEART AND VASCULAR CENTER

Cardiologists with The Christ Hospital Are First in Greater Cincinnati Region to Perform Heart Valve Replacement without Open Heart Surgery Aortic stenosis (AS) results from the hardening or narrowing of the aortic valve; AS obstructs the flow of oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the rest of the body. It is one of the two most common heart valve problems in the United States and ranks among the top five Medicare cardiac diagnoses. Patients with severe AS may experience chest pain, fatigue, shortness of breath, lightheadedness or fainting. Although AS typically progresses slowly without symptoms, once symptoms occur the prognosis is guarded and survival is limited. Treatment of AS has traditionally involved open heart surgical valve replacement, which has considerable morbidity and mortality in elderly, frail individuals with complicating medical issues. Now, physicians at The Carl and Edyth Lindner Center for Research and Education at The Christ Hospital are involved in a clinical research study (The PARTNER II Trial) using the Edwards SAPIEN XT valve. This allows doctors to replace the aortic valve without open heart surgery by using a catheter instead. The Christ Hospital is the only center between Atlanta, Georgia and Cleveland, Ohio to offer this novel, less invasive valve trial. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) provides a treatment option for patients with symptomatic AS who are not candidates for traditional valve replacement surgery. “Unfortunately, elderly patients with multiple medical problems may not survive traditional valve surgery,” says Dean Kereiakes, M.D., principal investigator in Cincinnati for The PARTNER II Trial and medical director at The Lindner Center for Research and Education and The Christ Hospital Heart and Vascular Center. “Our goal in joining The PARTNER II Trial is to provide a new treatment option and hope for these individuals.”

PATIENT STORIES “I couldn’t walk 20 feet without having to sit down. The day I had the procedure, I walked 25 feet and was fine. I’m Bill Whitt again.” William Whitt, 85, who suffered from AS and heart failure symptoms, had TAVR at The Christ Hospital on May 5, 2011.

John Metzger is 82. Because of a failing heart due to AS he had trouble breathing. Last September, recognizing his patient couldn’t wait until the new procedure was approved in Cincinnati, Dr. Kereiakes sent John to Cleveland for TAVR.

“Traveling was difficult and inconvenient for my family. Had this procedure been available in Cincinnati, I would have received it right here, at home.” John Metzger, a Cincinnati resident, had TAVR in Cleveland, in September 2010.

Green brings Kentucky Fresh to cooking world

I love Maggie Green’s cookbook titled, aptly, The Kentucky Fresh Cookbook (The University Press of Kentucky, $29.95). Maggie, a Kentucky native, has stirred up a big batch of recipes which are destined to become family favorites. I have known Maggie for a long time, and even though she is a true celebrity on the culinary circuit, you’d never know that when meeting her. Maggie is a genuine person, not one to tell you her accomplishments, which include close professional and personal relationships with some of the icons of the food world, like Ethan and Susan Becker (Joy of Cooking) and Shirley Corriher (Cook Wise, Bake Wise). I first heard of Maggie through Cincinnati Magazine way back when. I spied her “Green Apron” ad

there. F o r y e a r s , Maggie h a s offered personal c h e f , catering, Rita e d i t i n g Heikenfeld and conRita’s kitchen s u l t i n g services. As a registered dietitian (she started out in college in engineering and did a complete turn to nutrition), Maggie’s passion is helping folks eat better. Her book takes you through a whole year of recipes. It’s an engaging read on its own. You’ll feel like you’re right next to her, helping dice the celery, knead the bread, all the while having fun and learning from an expert. This is one cookbook

that I’ll be looking to when I need a fresh approach to old favorites, or a new recipe for a special occasion. I asked her to share a favorite for Father’s Day. She didn’t disappoint. Check out Maggie’s web page www.greenapron.com for interesting and timely tips.

Maggie Green’s flat iron steak with brown sugar rub

“My favorite recipe. It’s a flavorful cut of steak that’s versatile and delicious on the grill with this rub,” Maggie told me. Makes 8 servings A newer cut of meat to the market is a flat iron steak. This steak comes from a modified version of a top blade roast, a cut of beef from the shoulder of the cow. For years, butchers were

faced with a problem-what to do with the blade roast-a relatively tender and beefy cut of meat but with a tough piece of connective tissue running down the center. Researchers from Nebraska devised a method of cutting the blade roast to remove the tough connective tissue, leaving a large, flat piece of beef from the “top” of the roast. This top blade steak (or flat iron steak) weighs about 2 pounds and is evenly thick. The steak resembles a triangularshaped iron, thus the name flat iron steak. This method resulted in the rising popularity of the flat iron steak, all from a humble cut which barely made it out of the back of the meat case. A simple brown sugar rub enhances this beefy tender flat iron steak. One 2-pound beef chuck flat iron steak 2 tablespoons brown sugar 1 tablespoon garlic powder 1 tablespoon onion powder 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

Lay the steak in a shallow baking dish. To prepare the rub: mix the brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper together. Evenly distribute half of the rub over the top of the steak and rub all over the surface of the meat. Flip the steak and repeat with the remaining rub. Let stand for 30 min-

utes at room temperature. reheat grill to mediumhigh. Place the steak on the grill and cook for 5 minutes. Watch carefully to ensure the sugar doesn’t burn. Flip and cook for about 5 more minutes for mediumrare, 6 more minutes for medium and 8 more minutes for medium-well or well done. Remove from the grill to a platter, cover with foil, and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.

Twice baked potatoes with bacon and cheese

This is what I’ll be serving alongside Maggie’s steak for husband, Frank. 4 baking potatoes 4 tablespoons butter 8 oz. sour cream

11⁄2 cups shredded cheddar 8 strips bacon, fried and crumbled 4 green onions, sliced (white and green part both) Salt and pepper to taste Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake potatoes 1 hour or until tender. Cool slightly. Reduce heat to 350 degrees. Cut each in half lengthwise and scoop out pulp, leaving thin shells. Mash pulp with butter. Stir in rest of ingredients. Pile mixture into shells. Bake 30-35 minutes or until heated through. Serves eight. Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator and author.

Volunteerism honored

Mother of Mercy High School has been selected as the 2011 Roy Kaiser Volunteer Service Award recipient for its volunteer efforts at EPIC House, an assisted living facility near downtown Cincinnati. Mercy faculty, staff and students have been volunteering at EPIC House the past three years. Dick Bley, Mercy assistant basketball coach, is a past board member at EPIC House and a current volunteer. Mercy began serving the home’s residents when he suggested the facility be included as one of the sites at which Mercy volunteered during an in-service day three years ago. Mercy staff members visit EPIC House monthly throughout the school year, bringing dinner, preparing it and serving it to residents. In addition, Mercy Key Club members visit EPIC House residents several times a year helping with crafts, playing games and hosting holiday parties. “Thanks to the warmth, caring and enthusiasm of Mother of Mercy staff and students, EPIC House residents live a richer and fuller life. We are deeply grateful for their friendship and dedication, and are proud to present Mercy with this well-deserved award,” said Marlene Hamilton, executive director at EPIC House.
