North at North High

Council asked to improve crosswalk safety By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers Friends of the Columbus woman who died after being struck by a vehicle in Historic Dublin late last month want something done at the North High Street crosswalk where the incident had occured. Clintonville resident Iren Toms spoke

to Dublin City Council members during a Jan. 10 meeting, asking for a stop light or four-way stop at the crosswalk that crosses North High Street at North Street. “According to numerous people who live and work in the area, they say people ignore (flashing lights at the crosswalk),” Toms told council members. In the wake of Columbus resident

Stephanie Auer’s Dec. 30 death, Toms said she is working to get 2,000 signatures on a petition requesting a stop light at the crosswalk. According to police reports, Auer was struck by a vehicle shortly before 7 p.m. Dec. 28. Auer was in the crosswalk, but witness reports said the flashing lights were not on.

The incident remains under investigation. Despite the internally illuminated signs and flashing lights installed at the crosswalk last spring, Toms said more is needed to keep pedestrians safe. “I don’t feel that enough has been done,” she said, adding that during discussions with deputy city manager Dana McDaniel,

he indicated that a stop light is not warranted at the crosswalk. According to the state road standards Dublin follows, the flow of both pedestrian and vehicular traffic does not warrant a stop light at the crosswalk, city manager Marsha Grigsby said. See CROSSWALK, page A7

Piada might bring Italian fare to Sawmill By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Piada is looking at bringing its fast-casual Italian street food concept to Dublin’s east side. Chris Doody, one of the men behind Italian restaurants Bravo and Brio, opened the first Piada in Upper Arlington last fall and is now looking at a Sawmill Road parcel to expand his new concept. “Piada opened on Lane Avenue in September,” Doody told commission members Jan. 6. “It’s very similar to a fast-casual concept. It’s like Chipotle … but with pasta and salad bowls.” Doody and Upper Arlington architect Tom Beery took a plan for a 2,940-square-foot restaurant at 6495 Sawmill Road to Dublin’s planning and zoning commission last week. The southwest corner of Sawmill Road and Banker Drive currently houses a two-story building that would be demolished if Piada gains Dublin approval. “The intention of the architecture was to create a modern, sleek Italian feel for the restaurant,” Beery said, of the design that features a glass-paneled front, limestone arch and white concrete

block on the back. The 0.56-acre site requires 72 parking spaces, but the initial plan only contained 32 on-site spots and 15 off-site spots for employees. While the plan asked for exceptions with parking, the building also encroached upon the right-of-way and is located on the northeast corner of the parcel. Beery said Dublin staff members encouraged putting the building close to Banker and Sawmill Roads to keep in style with the Bridge Street Corridor plan. Most planning and zoning See PIADA, page A2

Karrer Middle School seventh-graders Aishy Murali (left), Anisha Babu, Deepthi Thumuluri and Manasa Murali discuss a problem during a team event at the Mathcounts competition at Sells Middle School on Jan. 8. About 70 sixth-, seventhand eighth-graders from each of the four Dublin middle schools worked on problems with and without calculators as individuals and as teams to see who would advance to the regional Mathcounts testing on Saturday, Feb. 19, at Columbus State Community College.

Students add learning, fun for math contest By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Almost 100 Dublin middle school students spent their Saturday morning doing math problems instead of sleeping in. The Jan. 8 Dublin Mathcounts competition pitted middle school students across the district against each other for a shot at regional competitions in the national math enrichment program. “The Dublin contest we hold every year in preparation for regional contests, which is in February at Columbus State,” said Sells intervention specialist and Mathcounts coach Jodi Van Vranken. Mathcounts has been around in Dublin for students in grades 6-8 for more than 10 years, said Grizzell coach Karen Wha-

ley. Sells and Karrer were the first middle schools to get involved in 1998. Grizzell students got in on the action in 2001 and Davis in 2002, Whaley said. Mathcounts covers every type of math from middle school standards. Weekly hourlong practices start in October. Coffman High School junior Gautam Rangavajla helps out with practices and last week’s competition. He lived in Indiana when he went to middle school, but was involved in Mathcounts there. “The main thing I liked was the opportunity to do abstract problems,” he said. “The problems are more real world.” Problems put in front of students last weekend included figuring the likelihood of different point combinations during a dart game and how long it would take two

different people to mow a lawn. Scioto freshman Arjun Venkataraman said one problem made students figure out the probability of hearing a certain song on an iPod. “All of the problems can be solved by using Algebra I and below techniques,” he said. Venkataraman did Mathcounts for three years in middle school and qualified for state competitions every year. “I really got interested in Mathcounts in the fourth grade,” he said, adding that he got into fifth-grade math that year. “Mrs. Whaley fed me Mathcounts problems and I liked them.” Grizzell eighth-grader Zarius Shroff is See STUDENTS ADD, page A2

P&Z: Senior housing plan isn’t ready Concert band names director, sets A closer look first practice date By JENNIFER NOBLIT

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The National Church Residences’ southern Dublin development hit a snag last week over air conditioners, building height and other details. The final development plan for a 200 multiple-family development on Dublin’s southern border was tabled by the Planning and Zoning Commission Jan. 6. Commission members did, however, approve platting for the site.

Piada eyes Sawmill location Continued from page A1 commission members liked the architecture of the building, but took issue with the white, sand-blasted concrete planned for the rear of the restaurant. “This is a contemporary building in a community that doesn’t have that and I’m OK with that,” commission member John Hardt said. Warren Fishman and other commission members voiced concerns with having 32 parking spots for a 70- to 75-seat restaurant

with a planned 40- to 50-seat patio. Commission members also cited problems with a planned pick-up window that would serve online, prepaid orders. Doody said he would remove the pick-up window, which would mean 40 parking spots for the restaurant. Commission chair Chris Amorose Groomes said after reading the proposed plan she went to the Upper Arlington Piada for lunch. “You’ve got a home run here,” she said. “But I’m really concerned with putting this home run on a postage stamp.”

Groomes said she would love to have a Piada in Dublin, but on a bigger parcel. “I wonder if there isn’t something better,” she said. “I’m very torn because I think it’s great. The building looks great. …I think every parking spot you have will be full. I just don’t want to short-change it.” Doody said the Sawmill Road location is important, but “Dublin’s a big place. I could see another (Piada) in the area.” Commission members voted to table the plan and Doody said he plans to return with revamped plans.

P&Z: Senior housing plan isn’t ready Continued from page A1 The building will be served by 109 individual air-conditioning units placed on the ground. “I’m really uncomfortable with putting 109 air-conditioning units around this development,” she said, noting a lack of aesthetics and noise pollution. McClure said the development does receive some government funding and must keep housing affordable, so in order to stay within budget a central air-conditioning system was scrapped for individual units for a $300,000 savings.

“$300,000 for centralized air, I don’t think that’s a huge number compared to this project,” Richard Fishman said. “I think noise pollution will make it unlivable in August.” Issues of setting precedent also came up during discussions of the three-story building’s 43-foot height. Richard Taylor said they will be much taller than the surrounding residential development. “We welcome you and affordable housing is important in the development,” Fishman said, but the buildings are so tall they’ll dwarf other development

in the area. Money was also a concern. NCR representatives told council members in November that financing has been approved for the first phase of 15 cottage units, the community center and adult day care. Commission member John Hardt said he was worried about what would happen if the second phase does not receive financing. Dublin planner Rachel Ray said any approved final development plan would govern development on the land, with or without financing.

Fishman asked for an addition to the plan that would make landscaping a second-phase requirement, in case financing is not secured right away. Commission members also asked NCR to take a look at details on a swale, fences, the end of Avondale Road and salvaging a barn currently on the property. “I’ve got a lot of issues for where we are,” Groomes said. The final development plan was tabled and will return to planning and zoning after issues are dealt with. jnoblit@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Report urges awareness, City hopes to lure six companies with incentives pesticides to squash bedbugs By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Six economic development agreements that could lure more than 700 new jobs to the city went before Dublin City Council on Jan. 10. Council members heard the first reading of six incentive packages that could net as much as $8.7million for the city. The second and final reading for all of the economic development agreements is expected on Jan. 24. According to economic development administrator Colleen Gilger, four of the companies seeking incentives from Dublin have received $12.3million in incentives from the state. The incentives from Dublin on all six economic development agreements will cost the city $2.2-million if approved by council and accepted by the companies, she added. The largest economic development agreement up for approval is with Alcatel-Lucent. “They’ve been looking for a new facility for a good part of 2010,” Gigler said of the telecommunications equipment maker. The company, headquartered in France, has been looking at locations around central Ohio and at current company locations in other states to move more than 500 information technology and testing operations jobs from its East Broad Street facility. To retain the company, Ohio has also offered $10-million in state incentives, Gilger said. Dublin’s incentive package includes a $500,000 location grant, two dedicated optical fibers from DubLink and a 10-year, 20-percent performance incentive on income tax withholdings collected, which is capped at $2.75-million. In return, Alcatel-Lucent will execute a lease in Dublin and move 540 jobs to the city by the end of 2011. The company is looking at the 120,000-squarefoot Atrium 2 building on Rings Road, Gilger said. An economic development agreement with Na-

tionwide Children’s Hospital will also be up for approval later this month. Gilger said the agreement will bring two new facilities to Dublin by 2020. A 22,000-square-foot sports medicine and orthopedics facility would be built in 2011, with a 30,000-square-foot medical office building to follow by 2020. The buildings would add more than 80 new jobs, the staff report said. Dublin is offering Nationwide Children’s Hospital a $15,000 location grant and a five-year, 25percent performance incentive on income tax withholdings collected by the city. The performance incentive is capped at $75,000. Other economic development agreements that went before council for a first reading this week are: • A three-year, 20-percent performance incentive on new income tax withholdings collected by the city from Fast Switch Ltd. In return, the information technology company will create 25 new jobs in Dublin by the end of 2013. The company would also receive a five-year incentive from the state, valued at $944,000, the staff report said, if it locates in Ohio. • Dublin is offering Equity Resources a fouryear, 15-percent performance incentive on income tax withholdings collected by the city, which is capped at $12,500. The company will, in turn, create 12 new jobs in Dublin by the end of 2014. • Infomotion Sports Technologies would create 45 jobs in Dublin for a four-year, 18-percent performance incentive on income tax withholdings. The company also received an incentive package valued at $209,000 from the state. • For creating 60 jobs in Dublin, HealthSpot, a technology start-up, would receive a four-year, 18percent performance incentive on income tax withholdings. The state also offered the company $424,000 in incentives. jnoblit@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers A bedbug report released last week by the Ohio Department of Health is waiting for a cue from state leaders. After seven meetings, the Ohio bedbug Workgroup report was released Jan. 5 and included 10 recommendations to prevent and control the spread of the bug that carries no disease, but feeds on human blood. Bedbugs are often found near sleeping areas and can easily “hitchhike” undetected on common items such as clothing, bags and furniture. “During the past decade, bedbug complaints in Ohio have increased dramatically,” ODH director and workgroup chair Alvin Jackson said in a news release. “The workgroup has determined the best possible approaches to assist Ohio communities in dealing with these pests.” Jennifer House, public-affairs officer for the ODH, said the report was given to the recently sworn-in Gov. John Kasich, outgoing Gov. Ted Strickland and General Assembly leaders. “We’ll await guidance from our legislative leaders on how they’ll work this out,” House said. The workgroup is also awaiting word on a few grants that could move recommendations forward. Bedbug outbreaks have been reported in homes, apartments, hotels, nursing homes, residential facilities and senior living centers. In central Ohio, bedbug complaints were under 50 in 2007, but increased to more than 100 in 2008 and nearly 450 in 2009, the report said.

During the course of its work, the group identified the lack of education, effective pesticides, collaboration between various agencies and the high cost of bedbug treatments as serious roadblocks in dealing with the problem. The report recommended getting pest control companies “effective and safe alternatives to those (pesticides) currently available for the control of bedbugs.” Some bedbugs are resistant to currently available pesticides, which leads to the need for multiple treatments. The Ohio Department of Agriculture has petitioned the U.S. EPA to “provide an emergency exemption for the residential use of” the pesticide Propoxur, but has so far been denied. House said Strickland wrote another letter to the U.S. EPA on Dec. 20 asking the agency to reconsider the ban on propoxur, but “right now we’re awaiting response.” The report recommends continuing requests for Propoxur, and asking the U.S. EPA and other federal agencies to facilitate and register bedbug pesticides that are “safe, effective and affordable.” Other recommendations revolve around statewide education and awareness in addition to developing ways to deal with the problem at local health departments. Finding ways to help low income people with bedbug prevention and control, as well as inspections for hotels and motels also made the list of recommendations. For a full list of recommendations or more information, the bedbug report can be found online at odh.ohio.gov/features/odhfeatures/bedbugsfeature.aspx.

Residents invited to meet with Axner By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Dublin residents will be able to share breakfast and conversation with Dublin City Schools Superintendent David Axner. The district recently announced three informal meetings with the superintendent and other top administrators; the first hourlong meeting is set for 9:30 a.m. Jan. 27 at Panera Bread, 6665 Perimeter Loop Road. “We’re just trying to be a little bit better communicators,” Axner said. “What’s really different about these meetings is we don’t have a planned agenda. Usually when we go out, we’re doing updates on our financial status, construction. …This will be an opportunity for people to come and hear a very quick update. We will field questions as best as we can.”

According to Axner, the district looked at how other districts work to communicate with residents before setting the informal meetings, which are also set for March and May. “We communicate, we send letters and we have our TV show, but unless you’re a parent, you don’t have too many opportunities to be face to face with people,” he said. The district has no agenda and no goal for the meetings outside of improving communication. “I think most school districts have a bad habit of engaging the community only around levy time,” Axner said. “One of the things we don’t have planned is a tax levy or any issue, so we can be a little more relaxed and just talk to people in regards to school.” Because the Jan. 27 meeting is the first, Axner said he’s not sure how many people

to expect, but he will have some administration to better answer questions. “I’m bringing some administrative cabinet members and executive directors in different areas if a special education question or financial question comes up (they be there to answer),” he said. After this year’s informal meetings, Axner said the district will assess the events and decide whether or not to bring them back in the future. “We’d like to hit different areas of district,” he said. “We’re not going to over-do them. We’ll do a couple each year.” Other meetings are set for 9:30 a.m. March 14 at Tim Hortons, 7493 Sawmill Road and 7 p.m. at Bob Evans, 5160 Tuttle Crossing Boulevard. jnoblit@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

This year marks the 48th anniversary of Dr. King’s celebrated “I Have a Dream” speech, delivered on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial during the March on Washington. In that speech, he shared his vision of a nation united in equality, justice and brotherhood. Many Dublin citizens were not born or were too young to remember that legendary address. To help our community understand the impact of Dr. King’s life on the civil rights movement, the city of Dublin is participating in a community-wide observance organized by the Dublin Parents of Black Students Association. This event not only commemorates Dr. King’s life; it teaches adults and students alike about his legacy and the importance of civil rights, equality and diversity in our community today

and in the future. The program theme this year is “In What Small Ways Are You Making a Big MARTHA Impact?” GRIGSBY Dublin residents do small things every day from stocking shelves at our local food pantry to offering a ride to a neighbor or tweeting about an auto accident. Often these simple acts have a significant and unmeasured impact on other people. It is this caring spirit of our residents that creates our wonderful sense of community in Dublin. One “small way to make a big impact” is to join Dublin’s community day of service on Martin Luther King Day at 11 a.m. at Dublin Jerome High School. This volunteer outreach has the national theme “Make it a Day on – Not a Day Off.” At the event participants can donate bar soap and other toiletry items for the

Dublin Food Pantry, give K-8 books for the African Library Project or sign up to donate blood at the Dublin Community Recreation Center or Dublin Community Church later that day. For more information, contact Christine Nardecchia, city of Dublin Volunteer Resources Administrator, at cnardecchia@dublin. oh.us or at (614) 410-4406. The event will feature guest speaker Beryl Anderson, former secretary to civil rights pioneer Rosa Parks. The program also will include student essays and musical performances. Rosa Parks’ “small act” of refusing to give up her seat on a Montgomery, Ala., city bus to a white man in 1955 made a big impact in the advancement of the national civil rights movement. Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks each started with individual, unselfish actions that continue to make a difference in the way Americans live. Marsha Grigsby is the city manager of Dublin.

District continues to look for efficiencies As we brace for uncertainties regarding school funding in Ohio, it is important we continue to look for many different ways to increase our efficiency as an organization. During my tenure, we not only found ways to be more efficient, but we have cut more than $11million from our budget during the past three and a half years. The delay in the construction of elementary 13 will help the district’s bottom line during the next five-year forecast cycle. The delayed opening will save the district about $2-million per year in operating costs. An additional 27.5 staff members will not have to be hired to staff the facility, in addition to the money saved in utility costs and supplies. Twelve additional classrooms, four each at Thomas, Wright, and Wyandot Elementary Schools, are under construction and will be ready for classes in 2011-12. These additional classrooms will help the district meet its elementary student housing needs going forward. Additional expenditure reductions implemented in the past four years include the items listed below. • Human resources saved $952,919 through reformed hiring practices. • The district saved $422,623 through new electricity provider contracts per year. • More than $650,000 saved to date through establishment of West Bridge/Power Plus programs. • A reformed Workers’ Compensation program saving $350,000 per year. • $1,039,588 saved in construction contingencies. • A review of building budgets has led to a savings of $122,755 per year. • Negotiations with health insurance companies saved the district $606,703 over two years. • $5.5-million in budget cuts in 2008, including $1-million from central office. These items total more than $11.5-million in expenditure reductions since 2007. On top of these significant reductions, through House Bill 264 the district has been able to borrow $5.7-million, interest free, to implement an energy conserva-

tion program expected to pay for itself within 15 years, and provide longer term savings after that time DAVID frame. The projects AXNER include putting in new, more energy efficient boilers in several buildings. Water heaters will be replaced with more efficient models, and solar power will be used to help heat water at one district site. Vending machines will be equipped with sensors that shut them off at night when they are not in use. Digital thermostats will be installed district-wide, and chillers will be modified to guard against pipes freezing in cold weather. Light fixtures in all district gymnasiums and cafeterias will be replaced with more efficient models, and HVAC controls will be equipped with CO2 sensors to modify air handling based on building occupancy. We have also delayed hiring some much needed positions in an effort to conserve our dollars. Our HR department works hard to strategically transfer teachers and other staff to the points of greatest need, while hiring as few new staff as possible. Through the use of a technology known as PublicSchool-

WORKS, HR also closely tracks any worker’s compensation claims in an effort to settle them quickly and economically. Our pupil services department writes and earns federal and state grants to enhance our programs. This year, we also implemented new programs such as POWER Plus and West Bridge Academy that offer services to our students that we previously paid other agencies to provide. These things have all taken place in advance of what are sure to be cuts to education funding in our state. Ohio is facing an $8-$18 billion budget deficit as the legislature begins to plan for the next two-year budget cycle. The district has been preparing for extensive cuts to our state funding during the next biennial budget process. Even though we receive about 11% of our funding from the state of Ohio, it will still add up to millions lost from our budget if the state drastically cuts aid to education. We will continue to work closely with our fine state legislators, Sen. Karen Gillmor, Rep. John Carney, Sen. Jim Hughes and Rep. Cheryl Grossman, as we move through the state budgeting process in 2011. David Axner is superintendent of Dublin City Schools.

Dublin City Schools Alumni Association

Hall of fame to get 12 new members The Dublin City Schools Alumni Association will induct 12 new members into the Hall of Fame this spring. The hall of fame committee last week announced its 2011 sections that include Dublin City Schools graduates and staff that have experienced success or made significant contributions to the school district. “This is a tremendous group,” Superintendent David Axner said in a news release from the district. “The committee really did its homework and made some excellent choices for additions to our Hall of Fame.” This year’s inductees into the Dublin City Schools Alumni Association Hall of Fame include: • A posthumous award will go to Emmett Karrer, a 1925 Dublin High School graduate who became an internationally known Ohio State University professor and engineer. Karrer was a founding member of the Dublin Historical Society and served on the Dublin school board in the 1950s. • 1955 graduate Dr. Walter Myers will be inducted for his musical talents that have given him trumpet-playing experience in the New York Orchestral Society, Aspen Festival Orchestra, Brooklyn Symphony and American Brass Quintet, among others. • Leonard Tracey, class of 1965, will be honored for receiving the Silver Star Award for gallantry in Vietnam after risking his life to save members of his unit. Tracey also

worked for AEP installing lines around Dublin. • Charles Painter, a 1965 Dublin graduate, will enter the hall of fame after clocking 533 wins as a high school tennis coach. In his 40 years of coaching, Painter coached the Wright State University tennis team, and currently coaches and teaches at Beavercreek High School. • Thomas Taylor, class of 1967, will be honored posthumous for his work as a researcher, author and historical re-enactor. Taylor was founder and president of the Florida Lighthouse Association and Florida Keys Reef Lights Foundation, and produced two nationally-viewed documentaries. • John Kilbury, a 1969 Dublin graduate, is a developer and builder of custom homes in Dublin and central Ohio, but will be inducted for his more than 20 years of volunteer coaching. Kilbury has coached students from the elementary to high school level in several different sports. • Welcome Warehouse founder Julie Fletcher, class of 1986, will be honored for starting the organization that has helped several needy families in the Dublin area. Fletcher also served as president and director of the adopta-family program and encourages others to get involved. • Motivational speaker Dr. Ted Sun, 1990 Dublin graduate, is founder and CEO of Executive Balance. Sun has worked with leaders from 33 different countries and had worked

as a consultant, educator and researcher around the world. • Matthew Beck, 1997 graduate, is currently involved as a professor and researcher in the Super Computer program at the University of Kentucky. In addition to several professional accomplishments, Beck also mentors students and researchers. • The namesake of Bailey elementary, Mary Emma Bailey, will be honored posthumously for serving as a district employee for 23 years. Bailey also authored a history of the Dublin schools, was involved in several civic organizations and volunteered in the district after retirement. • Former Dublin High School principal and 46-year district employee Ralph Feasel will be honored for his many years of service. Feasel has seen the district grow from 1,000 to 12,500 students. During his tenure, Feasel also coached track, football and basketball. • Joseph Riedel served as Dublin school superintendent from 1982 to 1987 and returned to the district to oversee the planning department after retirement. Riedel will be honored for sharing his experience and knowledge with other district employees. The hall-of-fame induction ceremony is scheduled for March 12 at the Marriott Northwest in Dublin. The ceremony is open to the public, but reservations are required and can be obtained by calling (614) 760-4362. — Jennifer Noblit

Concert band names director, sets first practice date Continued from page A1 the first rehearsal,” he said. Dublin Scioto High School band and choir director Jeff Chesser was named music director of the concert band last week. “They kind of called me out of the blue over winter break,” Chesser said. “They started looking Jeff Chesser for a director. This has been under way for some time. They started searching for a director and I was on their list.” Boasting 18 years with Dublin City Schools, Chesser said getting involved with the Concert Band of Dublin was a good fit. “I’ve always been involved with community bands and I’ve always enjoyed them,” he said. “I’m very familiar with the Dublin

community so I think it’s really a perfect fit.” Chesser is the performing-arts department chair at Scioto High School, and he directed band and choir at Coffman High School prior to Scioto’s opening. “In 1989 I student taught with Jeff Keller (a longtime Dublin music teacher),” he said. Under Chesser’s direction, the concert band will have two elements: music and friendship. “My goal goes along with what the committee had in mind: they wanted a place where people could find new friends and new relationships. The social aspect is a big part of it, but at the same time the quality of the product is important,” he said. The concert band has meeting space secured at Grizzell Middle School through the end of the school year and Chesser will take his position as director at the 7 p.m. Jan. 31 practice.

Jameson said the school will also let them borrow a few instruments. “Right now people provide their own instruments, except for percussion instruments. We don’t expect someone to have their own tympani. Those will be there at the school,” he said. “We’re very thankful for the school district. Not only are they allowing us to use their facility, but also instruments.” Chesser said the concert band will give high school and college musicians a chance to dust off their instruments, while giving professionals a chance to do what they love. “There will be all levels there,” he said. “Most people who have graduated through Dublin, I know they’ll be quality musicians. We’re not looking just in Dublin, but the whole Columbus area. I think there’s a wealth of talent in the Dublin area, though.”

The concert band will practice weekly and anyone interested in the group can meet Chesser during the final organization meeting at 7 p.m. Jan. 17 at the Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, 5475 Brand Road. Beyond the concert band, things have been moving for Dublin Community Bands. The Dublin Silver Band earned honors at a competition in Chicago this fall and Jameson plans to reconvene the group this spring.

“We placed third in an entertainment competition,” he said. “In addition to coming in third we got the award for most entertaining and best percussion section. And to put third place in perspective, we’ve been together for nine weeks and we competed against groups that have been together for years.” Dublin Community Bands was also given nonprofit status in December, thanks to board member and lawyer Jack Pigman.

CROSSWALK SAFETY Continued from page A1 “A traffic signal could create other traffic hazards,” Grigsby added, because of the close vicinity of the stop light at the intersection of High and Bridge streets. There are other things the city could do to “create better awareness” for drivers, although “we don’t want to provide pedestrians with a false sense of security,” she said. Council member Marilee Chinnici-Zuercher said the city should look into options such as better lighting at the crosswalk, no parking on the east side of North High Street and pedestrian lights that can be triggered by motion instead of pushing a button. “Those are three things I think should be studied again,” she said. Chinnici-Zuercher maintained that some improvement should be made to crosswalks because the city is trying to encourage more business and pedestrians in the area. Rumble strips could be another option, “to alert people that they’re in an area that they need to slow down in,” ChinniciZuercher said. Cathy Boring said the city had rumble strips in Historic Dublin streets long ago, but they were removed. “They were removed when ODOT did resurfacing,” Grigsby said. The rumble strips also led to some complaints of noise, she added. Boring suggested stepping up police patrols in Historic Dublin and interim chief Heinz von Eckartsberg said areas they get complaints on do get patrolled.

Church news Preschool accepting registrations for fall New Hope Preschool at New Hope Church, 4739 W. Powell Road, is now accepting students for the 2011-2012 school year. Open enrollment begins Jan. 24. New Hope Preschool is a Christian-based preschool program for children age 2 1/2 through 5, including pre-kindergarten classes and kindergarten enrichment programs. For information, visit www.NewHopePreschool.com or call (614) 766-2446.

The city has already installed extra signage on Historic Dublin crosswalks. On Jan. 7 placards were installed on the street in the middle of crosswalks to remind drivers that they must yield to pedestrians. Other options are also being considered, including overhead lighting and in-pavement lighting. Traffic and speed in the area will

also be monitored, as will crash information. Vice president Amy Salay reminded council members to move forward cautiously. “This is an ongoing investigation,” she said. “There is a lot we as council members don’t know. I encourage everybody to be prudent … because there’s a lot of information we don’t have.”

“That was a big thing getting there organizationally that will help us greatly with fundraising as we go down the road,” Jameson said. “This is very exciting and a credit to what kind of community Dublin is.” For more information on Dublin Community Bands or to download a registration form for the concert band, look online at DublinBands.com.

School news Start-stop plan expected Jan. 24 A formal recommendation on a change in start time for the high school day is expected from Superintendent David Axner at the Jan. 24 Dublin school board meeting. After 16 months of research, the School Reform Task Force late last year recommended moving the high school start time back by at least 45 minutes to give students more time to sleep. The task force presented the superintendent and school board with research on the benefits of later high school start times, surveys and more during a meeting late last year and Axner said the next step would be to look at the financial implications of the change, including busing. Information from the task force said a later high school start time could mean busing high and middle school students at the same time. The district currently buses the three levels at separate times. “In analyzing our bus routes, district officials have determined it is cost prohibitive to move from a triple-tiered busing system to a double-tiered system,” a Jan. 10 news release from the district said. “A double-tiered system would have allowed high school start times to be pushed back later than 8 a.m. “We are, however, examining the possibility of high school beginning close to 8 a.m. and dismissing elementary school in the 3:45 p.m.-3:55 p.m. range,” the release continued. “Middle and elementary school start times would remain close to what they are now and we will not need to have middle school and high school students on the same buses.” Dublin elementary schools currently run from 9:05 a.m. to 3:35 p.m. Middle schools run from 8:15 a.m. to 2:55 p.m. and the

high school day goes from 7:25 a.m. to 2:25 p.m. “We continue to examine a method of supporting a later high school start time and increasing our efficiency with existing resources,” Axner said in the release. “By reducing the time between routes, and maintaining our three-tiered system, we still may be able to start high school later and provide our students with additional sleep the research indicates they need.” The board will meet at 7 p.m. Jan. 28 at the central office, 7030 Coffman Road.

Jerome to host Martin Luther King event Dublin City Schools will hold its annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Remembrance Celebration from 11 a.m. to noon Jan. 17 at Jerome High School, 8300 Hyland-Croy Road. The event, themed “In what small way are you making a big impact,” will include music, entertainment from the Mt. Olivet Gospel Choir, essays from Dublin City Schools students and keynote speaker Beryl Anderson, who was Rosa Parks’secretary. According to information from the school district, Anderson will talk about Parks actions and the civil rights movement in “It Didn’t Happen by Accident.” In honor of the event’s theme, toiletry items and books are being collected for two charities. Attendees are asked to bring a bar of soap that will go to the Dublin Food Pantry and a children’s book that will go to a children’s library being built in Ghana. Residents can also make an impact for the day by giving blood. The Red Cross Bloodmobile will be at the Dublin Community Recreation Center, 5600 Post Road, from 1 to 7 p.m. and at the First Community Church, 81 West Bridge Street, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

GOOD IDEA TO PAY OFF THE MORTGAGE? Even with the currently low mortgage rates, it may make sense to make small additional payments toward your loan principal. Doing so can result in significant interest savings. For instance, making an additional $100 payment monthly on a 5%, 30-year, fixed-rate $150,000 mortgage will cut the total interest payment by nearly $35,000 and shorten the mortgage by 6.5 years. However, homeowner concerns about the value of their homes may make it a better idea to invest extra dollars in CDs, stocks, bonds, or a combination. A balanced portfolio that takes risk tolerance into careful account can potentially bring greater returns than contributing to mortgage principal. Liquidity is also an important consideration. Extra mortgage payments may not be easily accessed later. Many clients are realizing that dynamic and often difficult market conditions necessitate professional advice. I can provide you with objective financial recommendations on how to make the best use of your money in light of today’s housing market and investment opportunities. A balanced portfolio consists of a mix of IRAs, stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. I routinely review your financial plan and make adjustments if needed.

Jerome boys are making strides By SCOTT HENNEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Senior forward Ben Nesdore and his teammates on the Dublin Jerome High School boys basketball team began the season in transition, as they were learning the basics of a system installed by first-year coach Dave Hale. But based on their recent play, the Celtics are beginning to become comfortable with the changes. Last Friday, Jerome won its third consecutive game, defeating Dublin Scioto 51-39 to improve to 4-7 overall and 2-4 in the OCC-Cardinal Division. Junior guard Nick Neale led the way with 17 points, including two 3-pointers, and Nesdore and junior guard Cam Wilson scored 10 points apiece. “I think it’s going pretty well considering we had a lot of different stuff to learn,” said Nesdore, who also had six rebounds against Scioto. “We’re starting to catch on and it’s going pretty well. “The biggest thing is we have a new style of defense where we are pressuring everywhere on the court. It has taken awhile for everyone to get used to.” With all the teaching during the first couple months of the season, Hale decided it was time for his team to worry more about itself rather than its opponents. After the Celtics lost 57-55 to Marysville on Jan. 5, he spent the next day preparing his team mentally to face the Irish. “We focused on worrying about what we do on the court,” Hale said. “We needed to work our offense and not turn the ball over. That was the key against Scioto. We just didn’t turn the ball over. See JEROME, page B3

Riddle fitting in with Coffman boys By THAD PLUMLEY ThisWeek Community Newspapers

A portion of any success the Dublin Coffman High School boys basketball team achieves this season may be owed to an event that took place far away from a gym months before the start of the season. Senior guard Zack Riddle celebrated his birthday last summer with teammates at a party held at the home of classmate Travis Beckett. Riddle had just transferred

from Watterson to Coffman and hadn’t played a game with Beckett or any of the Coffman players. “That was really nice that they did that,” Riddle said, laughing as he recalled the festivities. “That helped a lot. Everyone welcomed me in and it made the transition easy. From the first open gym, I’ve totally felt like a part of the team.” It certainly has shown on the court. Riddle, who is 6-foot-2, is averaging a teamhigh 17.7 points as well as 4.8 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.5 steals. He’s led the Sham-

rocks in scoring in five of their seven games. His play is a big reason why Coffman enters an OCC-Central Division showdown with visiting Upper Arlington on Friday at 7-0 overall and 6-0 in the league. The defending OCC-Central champion, UA also is 6-0 in the league and was 9-0 overall before playing Watterson last Tuesday. “I’ll admit he’s even better than I thought,” coach Jamey Collins said of Riddle. “I saw him play a game as a sophomore and I’d seen him in open gyms and

it’s not hard to recognize that he’s really good, but he’s been better than I expected.” Riddle helped Watterson capture its second consecutive Division II district championship last season, averaging 10.4 points as the Eagles went 15-7. He had a teambest 16 points in their 44-40 victory over Canal Winchester in the district final. However, Riddle wanted to play in what he viewed as a more up-tempo style for See COFFMAN, page B3

Stellar defense has Irish girls in thick of OCC race By SCOTT GERFEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

A quick scan of the box scores for the Dublin Scioto High School girls basketball team reveals much about the philosophy of first-year coach Matt Fisher. Opponents have struggled to come up with answers for a defense that has produced six consecutive victories and put the Irish in contention for the OCC-Cardinal Division championship. Scioto, which improved to 83 overall and 5-2 in the OCC-Cardinal with a 40-33 win over Dublin Jerome last Friday, travels to Marysville on Friday for a league game. Westerville North and Olentangy, both 6-1 in the league, meet Friday with first place on the line. “To be honest, we do not talk at all about what is happening in the rest of the league,” Fisher said. “We only care about what we are

Football

Brookhaven first of many to hire new coach By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The first domino to fall in the central Ohio high school football coaching scene this offseason occurred over the holiday break when Brookhaven High School hired former Bearcats and Marion-Franklin assistant Trevor White to take over its program. Then Jan. 6, Reynoldsburg athletics coordinator Jack Purtell announced that his school would be recommending current Hartley assistant Buddy White as its new coach at its next board meeting. Several other area coaching vacancies should be filled over the next month. Late last month, a school official told ThisWeek for a story that appeared on ThisWeekSPORTS.com that the Johnstown-Monroe Local School District wasnâ€™t planning to renew the contract of nine-year coach Mike Carter at a future board meeting. The board did not address Carterâ€™s contract last Monday. Openings at Columbus East, Hilliard Bradley and Westland also have started to come into focus. At Reynoldsburg, where its job had been vacant since shortly after the sea-

son, the school had about 30 applicants, including some former and present head coaches. Buddy White is expected to succeed Steve Evans, who went 7-23 in three seasons with the Raiders after taking over a team that went 3-7 in 2007. Evans successfully turned around programs at Hamilton Township and Teays Valley but couldnâ€™t repeat the task at Reynoldsburg, where athletes have had to pay as much as $500 in pay-to-participate fees per sport. As a result of the high pay-to-participate fees, the Raiders have had several football players transfer to schools such as Pickerington Central and Pickerington North in recent years. Reynoldsburg won three of its first five games last season, including a 1714 win over Newark on Sept 24, but lost its final five to finish with a 3-7 record. The Raidersâ€™last winning season came in 2005 when they went 6-4. Their only playoff berth came in 2001 under former coach Tony Pusateri. Buddy White coached varsity wide receivers, was the head freshman coach and assisted with the junior varsity last season when Hartley won the Division

IV state championship. He previously assisted at West Virginia State College (1980-82), Salem College (1982-86), Watkins Memorial (1990-95, 19972001), Marion-Franklin (2001-04) and Reynoldsburg (2005-09). â€œWe have to find a person we think is going to fit with all of the cuts that are looming,â€? Purtell said a day before officially selecting Buddy White. â€œAs tough as our league is, we just want to bring in a leader who will have a good relationship with the kids and parents and be a good role model. When you have that, a lot of times success will follow. Being in the league we are in, we donâ€™t want a rookie.â€? According to Bradley athletics director Chip Ebert, his program received about 60 rĂŠsumĂŠs since the position was vacated in mid-November. After guiding St. Charles to a 20-20 mark in four seasons, Ted Wierzbicki coached Bradley to 2-8 and 3-7 records, respectively, during its first two seasons. The Jaguars beat Franklin Heights 4218 on Sept. 24 for their only OCC-Capital win in their first two seasons. â€œWeâ€™re hoping to do interviews in January, and hopefully weâ€™ll give a rec-

Wrestling

ommendation to the (school) board in February,â€? Ebert said. â€œIt might seem a little weird coming from an athletic director, but whoever we hire has got to be a good teacher, and of course we want the best coach out there. We want someone whoâ€™s going to motivate our kids and attract more players out for the team. I donâ€™t really care what kind of offense or defense they like to run, but we just want them to be someone that people will follow.â€? Westland athletics director Greg Burke received about 10 rĂŠsumĂŠs for his schoolâ€™s vacancy. Brian Smith resigned Nov. 1, three days after the season-ending 33-12 loss to Central Crossing. In three seasons under Smith, Westland went just 2-28 overall and 0-19 in OCC play. The Cougarsâ€™ only wins during that time came in 2008 over Cleveland John Marshall (30-20) and last season over Toledo Scott (28-0). After not fielding a team in 2009 because of the South-Western City Schools levy failure, Westland went 1-9 overall and 0-7 in the OCC-Central last season. Smith, a 32-year-old former DeSales assistant, took over a Cougars program that had gone 7-4 and made its only

postseason appearance in 2006 under former coach Jeff Jones. Quarterback Kasey Wendal, a 2007 graduate, was named the ThisWeek Super 25 captain that season. â€œIâ€™ve interviewed a couple of internal candidates and now weâ€™re looking at outside rĂŠsumĂŠs,â€? Burke said. â€œIâ€™d like to have it wrapped up by mid-January. I think having a knowledge of Westland is obviously a very big benefit. We think weâ€™ll be able to have a very suitable candidate for the job.â€? Columbus East is starting interviews of its nine applicants and could have a new coach by the end of January, according to athletics director Corinne Moore. Mike White resigned at seasonâ€™s end after coaching the Tigers to a 35-95 record in 13 seasons. Eastâ€™s only winning season during Whiteâ€™s tenure came in 1999 when it went 8-3 and made the Division II playoffs. The Tigers posted 5-5 finishes in both 2006 and â€™08 but went 4-6 in 2009 and just 1-9 last season. Eastâ€™s only win last fall came in Whiteâ€™s final game when the Tigers beat Linden-McKinley 1814 on Oct. 29.

Bragging rights on line for Coffman, Davidson Scioto, Jerome preparing for OCC battles By SCOTT GERFEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The rivalry thatâ€™s developed between the Dublin Coffman and Hilliard Davidson high school wrestling teams can be traced to when the two coaches brought success to another area program. When Coffman coach Bob Stoll led Readyâ€™s team, Davidson coach Dominic DiSabato was a three-time state champion and four-time finalist. â€œI took him to his first-ever wrestling tournament when he was 5 years old,â€? Stoll said. â€œBoth teams want bragging rights and probably whoever wins this (match today) will win (the OCCCentral Division). Itâ€™s probably going to come down to how our guys in the upper weights perform.â€? The two teams compete today at Davidson with Central Crossing. A year ago, the Shamrocks won a league championship at 70, ahead of Davidson (6-1), Hilliard Darby (5-2), Worthington Kilbourne (4-3), Upper Arlington (3-4), Thomas Worthington (2-5), Westland (1-6) and Central Crossing (0-7). Last seasonâ€™s win over the Wildcats came down to the last match. Coffman already has earned two OCC-Central wins this season, topping Upper Arlington 4718 and Westland 71-0 on Jan. 6. Last Saturday, the Shamrocks edged host Beavercreek 208.5208 to win the Beavercreek Classic. Chris Mullucey (103 pounds,

Stoll said. â€œBut if we get everybody back in the lineup, I think we can become a good tournament team.â€? â€˘Scioto coach Scott Kingâ€™s dilemma in dual meets has been coping with vacancies in four weight classes. The Irish gave away too many points in losses to Olentangy Liberty (57-21) and Westerville North (51-29) on Jan. 6. â€œThat makes things really difficult in a dual meet,â€? said King, whose team faces Westerville South and Westerville Central today at Central. â€œWe tell the guys to stay positive. But what weâ€™re really looking for is growth. Weâ€™re heading up to Alliance for the Top Gun Tournament this weekend and thatâ€™s really going to test our guys.â€? The Top Gun tournament features nearly 40 teams, including Central, Olentangy and Marysville from central Ohio. Scioto finished eighth (122.5

Wes King and Matt Travis met in the final at 215, and King prevailed 4-2. â€˘Jerome expects to be more competitive in the OCC-Cardinal, which features some of the best wrestlers in the area. The Celtics take on two of the top teams in the league today in Olentangy and Marysville. â€œWeâ€™ve got an incredible division, but at the same time we know itâ€™s all about getting ready for districts and states,â€? coach Adam Huddle said. â€œWeâ€™ve had some guys out, but youâ€™ve got to get points where you can get points.â€?

Zack Riddle, a senior, is averaging 17.7 points, 4.8 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.5 steals in his first season with Coffman.

COFFMAN Continued from page B1 his final prep season, so he transferred to Coffman early in the summer. The timing of his decision enabled him to participate in all of the Shamrocks’summer and fall workouts. “I felt like Coffman was a better opportunity for me,” Riddle said. “Watterson is a great place. It has great people and great coaches and I had three great years there. But I thought Coffman fit my style better.” Under Collins, the Shamrocks

HOCKEY Continued from page B1 won a district championship. “Winning our league would be nice, but it’s not one of our big goals,” Murphy said. “We lack experience on the blue line, but our defense is improving. Our philosophy is to play strong team defense with five guys, instead of just two. All three of our goalies, Wes Faulkenberry, Cameron Gutman and Josh Howell, have played well. All three of them have earned shutouts this season and we have confidence that any of them can win games for us.” •Scioto will attempt to defend its title in the MLK Tournament Friday through Sunday at the Monroe (Mich.) Multi-Sports Complex. The Irish will open on Friday against Ottawa Hills before playing both Akron Hoban and Cincinnati Elder on Saturday. Scioto beat Hoban 4-2 on Nov. 27 and Elder 6-2 on Dec. 19 for its only wins this season. The Irish went 4-0 in the event last year, beating Elder 8-4 in the final. “We’re looking forward to playing teams we can compete with, and obviously, we’re looking to defend our title,” coach Chad Ellis said. “We’ve already beaten two of three teams we’ll see there, and we feel like we can beat them again if we play well.”

try to move the ball up and down the court quickly. Guards constantly work the perimeter for open shots or drives to the basket when they are in half-court sets. Riddle has combined with classmates Matt DiThomas and Christian Heine to form a talented trio of shooters who also can get into the lane. With a variety of head and body fakes and hesitations, Riddle seemingly can drive into the lane any time he chooses to do so. In a 70-42 rout of Worthington Kilbourne last Friday, he had four

We also had a great effort on the defensive end of the court.” The Celtics held a 32-17 edge in rebounding against Scioto. According to Nesdore, the team also had more intensity. “I thought our intensity was better than it was against Marysville and our defense was a lot better,” Nesdore said. “We dominated them on defense and caused a couple of big turnovers. I don’t think we executed as well against Marysville as we did against Scioto.” Hale has noticed a trend for the Celtics. Whenever they have a lackluster performance like the one they had against Marysville, they tend to follow it with a strong effort, as they did against Scioto. “The thing is, we have to put two games back-to-back,” Hale said. “We played well against (Hilliard) Darby (in a 49-37 win on Dec. 30), but we didn’t against Marysville. We did (against Scioto), but we need to do that (Friday) against a tough Westerville Central team.” The Celtics finish the first round of OCC-Cardinal play Friday at Central. Entering this week, Jerome was fifth in the league, behind Olentangy Liberty and Westerville South at 6-0, Central at 4-2 and Westerville North at 3-3, and ahead of Olentangy, Marysville and Scioto, all of

field goals, three of which were layups. He also took 10 free throws that were the results of fouls on attempted drives to the basket. “We changed the way our guards play a few years ago and he looks really comfortable playing that way,” Collins said. “What’s so great about him is he Continued from page B1 is eager to learn and get better. “My goal is to distract oppoAnd when you have that, you have nents, and I try to get a lot of fivea player who has an opportunity second calls,” point guard Sarah to be really good.” Leach said. “We never know who’s going to step up on offense, www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com so our defense has become our strong point.” During the winning streak, Scioto’s average margin of victory has been 6.5 points.

Ellis said the Irish will need to do a better job of finishing scoring opportunities after scoring just 19 goals and getting shut out eight times in their first 15 games. Leading Scioto in scoring are Zach Vallette (eight goals, six assists), Grant Noppenberger (six goals, one assist) and Tate Bowen (four goals, three assists). No other member of the team has more than three points.

which were 1-5. “We have looked solid in practice, so we don’t have to be spectacular. We just have to execute,” Hale said. “We’re not always looking at wins and losses as much as how we play.” Neale is leading the team in scoring, averaging 11.4 points. Wilson is second, averaging 10.2 points, followed by Nesdore at

vantage in the first quarter to beat the Celtics. After starting the second round of OCC-Cardinal play against Marysville, Scioto travels to Pickerington Central on Saturday to face the Tigers in the Ohio Prep Shootout. The Irish won their first meeting with Marysville 46-41 on Dec. 3. “We’ll watch film and prepare like usual,” Fisher said when asked about the games against Marysville and Central. “We can’t predict anything that will happen this weekend. Last time (Marysville’s) Jenny Jordan got to the free throw line a lot and that is what kept them around. We do not foul as

much as we did early on.” Central, which reached a Division I district final a year ago, is 5-6 overall heading into a game against Reynoldsburg today. The Tigers ended Scioto’s season a year ago at 15-6 overall with a 44-39 win in the second round of the district tournament. It was the first time the Irish had not reached a district semifinal since the 200304 season. “I’ve never played against them,” Leach said. “I think both teams lost a lot of talent from last year and it’ll be an interesting game.”

Scampering waiters and above-average food at new Poblano’s MENU

Except for the hardest-working and quickest-moving wait staff in town — servers literally, stunningly and unfailingly jog across its wide-open and winding-around spaces — Poblano’s is nothing you haven’t seen before. That said, this bright and tidy newish Mexican restaurant’s food was consistently a cut above the norm. Occupying a rambling, double-decker edifice spread out over several rooms, Poblano’s is a big and splashy establishment. Kind of fun in a kitschy and touristy way, its brash color scheme alternates from one tropically tinted wall to the next. So as your head whirls as you try to follow that kinetic wait staff moving to the beat of relentlessly uptempo cumbia music, your eyes will rush past tones like tan-

After the arrival of fresh and above-average chips and salsa, you’re probably going to want some of the slightly orange-flavored house margaritas. I recommend the worth-it upcharge for a lasts-forever (and potent!) half pitcher of “Poblano’s” Margaritas ($17) made with Hornitos tequila and Cointreau. Appetizer-wise, though the homey, oregano-flecked and salty chicken and tortilla soups were both pleasant enough (each $2.50), my favorite starter was the extra-large and super-valued

Whitefish Ceviche ($6.50). I liked how its abundant, creamy and unblemished avocado chunks calmed down the assertive yet enticing fresh lime juice mixture

(with diced tomato and onion) in which the plentiful chopped raw fish was “cooked.” From the “House Specialties” entrees, El Amigo ($15) will definitely live up to its name and be your friend — if, like me, you’re a big eater. A virtual Mexican smorgasbord on a single plate, it was spilling over with nicely seared shrimp plus rice and beans (they grace most every meal and yes, they’re better than most), crisply grilled slices of thin beef (carne aside) and a boneless, skinless chicken breast. Both terrestrial proteins tasted great beneath their layers of rich melted Mexican cheese and zesty, greasy chorizo (but what wouldn’t?) Real Mexican chiles rellenos have an eggier batter than you generally get in America. Since I got something approximating that at Poblano’s, I’d rate theirs

($10.50) on the higher side. I mixed and matched a chicken (stewy) with a beef (hamburger vastly improved by being cooked with onion, carrot and potato) to fine effect. Though I doubt it was completely made from scratch, the mole sauce on my Enchiladas Poblanos ($9.50) was thicker, less sweet, richer and more complex (tasting of roasted chilies with a hint of cinnamon) than average.

It was slathered over a trio of tortillas wrapped around chicken stewed with rajas (roasted poblano pepper strips). Nice. Also quite nice was a massive platter of Chile Verde ($11). That one featured huge chunks of tender, stewy pork shoulder enlivened by a piquant tomatillo salsa. I’m a sucker for Pastel de Tres Leches, and Poblano’s version ($4.50) did not disappoint. Soaked in sweetened condensed milk, slightly perfumey and elaborately decorated with caramel icing piped into rococo decorations, it was a piece of cake that tasted as good as it looked. To read G.A.

Powell pizzeria serves up classic New York-style pies After Brooklyn Pizza opened on New Year’s Day, the New Yorkers started filing in. One guy was from Brooklyn, another from Staten Island. Long Island was represented, as was Albany. Owner Anthony La Cerva didn’t know there were so many Empire State transplants living in central Ohio. “There’s a lot of pressure on me,” he said. But it seems he has a hot, cheesedripping commodity – a New York-style pizza, complete with a crispy, foldable crust, 100-percent mozzarella and a house-mixed sauce. “The only thing that’s missing is the water,” he said. La Cerva’s goal was to create a true pizzeria, similar to the ones his father owned in the New York metropolitan area. “When I was a kid, I was stuck at a table folding pizza boxes,” he said. Thin-crust pizzas, cut into triangles no less, appeared to be an anomaly in central Ohio. Rarer still were by-theslice options. “Maybe the pizza places (in town) don’t think they make enough money on it,” he said. “I’m stumped. In New York, they’re all over the place.” Brooklyn Pizza, a carryout at 30 Grace Drive, has taken over the former Joshua’s Pizza in a strip center just north

of the restaurant-laden intersection at Liberty and Olentangy streets. La Cerva said he’s somewhat concerned about the lack of foot traffic in his strip center but is confident his product is singular enough to draw people from all over the region. “I want to be the exclusive,” he said. “Everybody’s going to have to come over here.” Pies come in 14 and 16 inches, plus a 16-by-16 Sicilian alternative. Toppings include the traditional to more designer choices, such as roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes. A 16-inch

Liberty St. She admits that most customers haven’t even heard of it. “But once they taste it, they love it,” said Starling, who ran the Sunbury Grill for three years. It has myriad uses – for example, complementing omelets – or is enjoyable as a side, she said. Starling’s customers can get a GLT – a goetta, lettuce and tomato sandwich. She also has a parade of homemade dishes, including buttermilk biscuits and gravy, soups, chili, pancakes and such. Her potatoes are fresh-cut and her burgers are hand-patted. Prices range from $3 for a la carte items to $7.99 for meals. “I love to cook. I like to cook anything,” she said. “I’m not much of a baker. I love to cook comfort food that fills people up.” Jodi’s Home Cooking is open for breakfast and lunch Tuesday through Sunday, closed Monday. For more information, call 614-785-0474.

“How to use ‘direct response’ ad strategies to grow your business 10%, 20%, 30% or more in 12 months”

How to: n Get your business unstuck, and start having fun making more money this year... n Make minor tweaks to your niche and start attracting more customers immediately... n Stop creating lame ads and learn the successful ad strategies that skyrocket sales... even in this economy... n Be your competitor’s worst nightmare... n Make 30%, 50%, even 100% more revenues from existing customers... n Implement simple, yet revolutionary techniques for growing your business faster and easier than you are now... AND MUCH MORE!

Business owners in “startup” mode—those looking for “proven strategies” for making money the first year.

Business owners who know their business can grow and are seeking strategies to make that happen.

Established business owners who want to protect their sales from competitors aggressively looking to steal their customers, leads and sales.

Business owners who are willing to actually talk to other human beings (as opposed to only sending emails.)

WHO SHOULD NOT ATTEND: n

People who sell “get rich quick” or “Biz Pop” materials.

People who have no business, aren’t actually selling anything, or are perpetually in “information gathering mode”. (If you haven’t gotten started yet, that’s OK just as long as you’re ready to actually start doing something.)

People NOT willing to roll up their sleeves and do the work needed to grow their business; people who aren’t “coachable” or “teachable”.

Doing the same thing this year you did last year won’t get you anywhere. In this 2 hour workshop, David Fowler, will reveal PROVEN marketing and advertising strategies you need to know to boost your top line and bottom line revenues. The ideas shared are specifically for small to medium size businesses and best of all, you can implement these ideas to boost your sales immediately.

If you’re serious about growing your business, register right now! (Hurry, seating is limited, and this event will fill fast!)

Meetings Northwest Columbus Christian Women’s Club, 10 a.m.-noon Wednesday, Jan. 26, at Scrambler Marie’s, 3980 Presidential Parkway. Rita Stewart will present “Banker Shares Secret to Lasting Wealth.” Reservations required. Call Gail at (614) 475-7214 or email Linda Isler Brown at linda isler@hotmail.com by Jan. 19.
