AMY SCALF/THE COMMUNITY RECORDER ALEXANDRIA’S NEW CAFE HITS THE SPOT By Amy Scalf [email protected] Four years of relatively flat county taxes, more efficient lo- cal government and hope for a continuing recovery are reasons why Campbell County Commis- sioner Brian Painter thinks he and fellow incumbent Peter Gar- rett should return to office. “In 2010, people were desper- ate. We had fewer jobs and we were losing jobs. People were concerned that local govern- ment was taking too much in tax- es and needed to (be) controlled. That’s the mindset we had going in,” said Painter. “And I think, if the voters look at how different things are now, they’ll see what we’ve accomplished and want us back.” “The desperation we saw four years ago is, largely, gone because we responded to it. If you look at results, I think you can say we were a turning point,” he added. The pair, Republicans who were overwhelmingly elected to their first terms in 2010 as fiscal conservatives, are back on the ballot facing in-party challeng- ers in the May 20 primary. Painter, 54, of Alexandria, is being challenged by longtime political activist Gail Otto for the District 1 seat. Otto, 63, of Fort Thomas, is the former wife of former longtime commissioner Dave Otto. Though she helped her husband get elected to six terms on commission, this is her first run for office. Running of a platform heavy on family and health issues – par- ticularly the heroin problem in the area – she said she’s ready to tackle issues facing the county. “I am honest, I like to help people, I’m not about money and I will work hard on issues that need to be rectified,” said Otto. The winner will face attorney Rene Heinrich, a Democrat from Highland Heights, in the general election. In District 2, Garrett is seek- ing a second term after defeat- ing Dave Otto in the most hotly contested race from 2010. After losing to Otto by four percent- age points in 2006, Garrett beat the incumbent with 58 percent of the vote four years later to end his 24-year run in office.

ABOUT ALZHEIMER’SAlzheimer’s is the only one of the 10 most common

diseases people get where there is no treatment, preven-tion or cure available, said Diana Bosse, special eventsmanager for the the Alzheimer’s Association of GreaterCincinnati.The association provides referrals and resources for

patients and families, support groups, and an online coach-ing help line open 24 hours every day, Bosse said.“Especially with Alzheimer’s, crises don’t always happen

between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.,” she said.

Among other things,the proposed heroin billwould have:

»Allowed prosecutorsto charge high-volumedrug traffickers withhomicide if the persondied of an overdose.

»Directed some sav-ings from reduced jailpopulations resultingform 2011 prison reformsto treatment.

» Expanded access tonaloxone. The drug blocksopioid receptors in thebrainandcancause imme-diate withdrawal for peo-ple who are overdosed onheroin, saving their lives.

An amendment to thebill would’ve allowed forneedle-exchange pro-grams in Kentucky.

The ideawas toprovideclean needles to addicts sothat the used needleswould not be re-used ordiscarded, potentiallyspreading hepatitis C orHIV to people in the com-munity.

“This is a disease andmust be, will be if I amelected, treated as such,”Sell said.

Pendery said “muchhas been accomplished”with regard to the heroinepidemic but added,“there is a longway to go.”

Pendery serves as co-chair of a Northern Ken-tucky Heroin Impact andResponse Work Groupcommittee on substanceabuseprogramsfor there-gion’s jails.

wasn’t without harshwords and charges of im-propriety from both sides.

Since taking his seat,Garrett, 59, a gunsmithfrom California, said hehas worked to cut costs, inline with the mandatefrom voters.

“My first priority hasalways been and will con-tinue to be saving tax dol-lars wherever possible,while continuing to pro-vide adequate services atthe lowest cost,” he said.Part of that effort, he add-ed,was toworkonpensionreform for governmentemployees, which loomsas a major cost to taxpay-ers. His challenger thinksGarrett and the rest of thefiscal court hasn’t doneenough, though.

According to CharlieColeman, the former

Bellevue High School ath-letic director and footballcoach, the past four yearsfrom commissioners hasbeen “politics as usual.”

“Campbell Countyneeds to reverse the trendof putting politics abovethe taxpayers,” Colemansaid.

Citing a potential BrentSpenceBridge toll, Sanita-tion District No. 1 rate in-creases and taxes, he add-ed, “Rather than standingwith our citizens, the pre-sent Fiscal Court shows adesire to support big gov-ernment regionalism.”

Coleman is probablybest known outside ofBellevue as one of thechallengers to the waypublic libraries have beenfinanced in Kentucky. In2012, Coleman and othersfiled suit against local li-braries, saying taxes tofund them were raisedwithout public consent, asKentucky statues require.Colemanand the other liti-

gants seek a rollback toabout half the currentrate.

A decision from theKentucky Court of Ap-peals isexpected this sum-mer.

The winner betweenGarrett and Coleman willface Democrat MelanieSteidel Pelle inNovember.Pelle, 48, of Silver Grove,is a longtime school boardmember and owns a book-keeping and payroll firm.

The commission’s Dis-trict 3 seat is guaranteedtobe filledbyanewcomer,with Democrat Ken Rech-tin leaving to run forjudge-executive.

Democrats David Am-mans, a 46-year-old dry-wallcontractorfromNew-port, andMarkRamler, anarchitect from Newport,arerunning in theprimaryfor the right to face Re-publican Tom Lampe inNovember. Lampe is a six-term Fort Thomas coun-cilman.

MorganMitchell ofErlangerplopped down on the carpet.The13-year-old was soon joinedbyher friends.Crowdedaroundan array of exotic-lookingfoods, they tasted and talked.

“I feel like I have half ofEurope on a plate,” Mitchellsaid.

“You get to try almost everydifferent type of food fromaround the world,” added herfriend, Aaron Byrd.

That night, April 21, morethan 50 students of the KentonCounty Adult Education’s ESL(English as a Second Language)program each prepared a dishfrom their home country. Theevent, held at the Erlangerbranch of the Kenton CountyPublicLibrary,wascalledInter-national Food and Flavors.

The dishes were displayedon tables that lined the perime-ter of the library’s meetingroom. Hanging from each tablewas a paper flag representingthe countrywhere the food, andthe person who made it, origi-nated.

“We’veneverbeentoIndone-siaorTurkey,” saidColleenNut-tall of Fort Mitchell, whobrought along her son. “I’m en-joying all the culture here.”

“This is anopportunity forusto share our food and culture,”said Elif Yildrim of Villa Hills.She was born and raised in Tur-key.

“Turkey’s food takes a longtime to prepare,” she shared.“For example, this,” she saidpointing to her dish, stuffedgrape leaves. “You have to rollthem, one by one.”

“This is the third time we’vedone the food night,” said JonReynolds, the ESL coordinatorforKentonCountyAdultEduca-tion.

“This is great because wecan meet with people from dif-ferent countries,” shared NatiMoser of Hebron, who grew upin theDominicanRepublic. “Wehear different accents. It’s goodfor our ears.”

COLD SPRING — Camp-bell County’s gifted andtalented fifth-grade stu-dents got together for abook festival at Cross-roads Elementary to cele-brate their upcomingmove to middle schoolwhile learning about bul-

lying and self-esteem.Thirty-seven students

from Campbell Ridge,Cline, Crossroads, Grant’sLick and Reiley elemen-tary schools had read sixbooks that display differ-ences, share similaritiesand contemplate changesat the preteen level.

Missy Turner, whoserves as Campbell Coun-

ty’s teaching and learninglead for curriculum andinstruction, organized theevent featuring six books.

Spread among theclassrooms and cafeteriaat Crossroads, studentswrote poems, createdvideos and learned basicguitar techniques duringthe interactive event.

“These books help

themunderstand it’sOKtobe different,” said Turner,who also served as a class-room teacher for12 years.“In our group discussions,we’re able to talk abouthow it’s important to ac-cept everyone for whothey are. ... It’s importantnot to judge others basedon looks.”

Shesaid thebookswere

chosen because they’realignedwith thenationallyaccepted AcceleratedReader program at thefifth- and sixth-gradereading level.

The students werebrought together to learnabout eachotheraswell asthe books.

“As these students aremoving into sixth grade,they’ll be leaving a wholegroup of students they’vebeen with, sometimes, forfive whole years,” saidTurner. “In middle school,they’ll be mixed in withstudents fromtheotherel-ementary schools. Havingthese shared activities al-lows them to get to knoweach other before they’rein school.”

ElaineRandall,aReileyElementary teacher, guid-ed students as they wrotepoems inspired by “Theo-dore Boone: Kid Lawyer.”

She said studentswouldwrite about Boone’sexperiences, and thenwrite from the point ofview of a bully or a bullied

student, oras theparentorteacher of a bully or bul-lied student.

Other activities wereled by parent volunteersor additional teachers,who decided to pitch inwhen the group was un-able to attend a similarevent planned atNorthernKentucky University.

“It’s amazing what par-ents will do if you justask,” said Turner.

Bishop Brossart HighSchool’s baseball team startedslow, gainedmomentumwith anAll ‘A’ Classic regional champi-onship, andhas struggled to findconsistency down the stretch.

TheMustangs entered the fi-nal week of the regular seasonwith a 12-17 record and fourgames to tune up before the dis-trict tournament begins.

“At times this team hasplayed like we thought it could,but we have not played consis-tently enough to be where we'dlike,” saidheadcoachRonVerst.“Wehave not been able to put allthreephasesof ourgame -pitch-ing,hitting,anddefense - togeth-er for long stretches.”

They lost eight of their first10games,while fourkeyplayersrounded into baseball shape.Seniors Teddy MacDonald andErikRieger and juniorsSpencerHackworth and Clay Kramerjoinedtheteamlatefinishingoutthe Mustangs’ basketball sea-son.Once theMustangs reachedfull strength, they started toturn their season around.

“It took a while to get all ourofbasketballplayersuptospeedwiththeirarmsandbats.Mostofthem joined the team the weekof our first game, so it took awhile to get arms in game readyshape,”saidVerst.“Ourpitchingstaff is still dealing with a fewminor arm issues, but all in allwe are in pretty good shape aswe enter the final weeks of theseason.”

Brossart considered 2013 arebuilding year, with just onesenior on the roster following astate tournament run. This year,theMustangs field eight seniorsand their leadership has beenvaluable. All eight have varsityexperience and it shows.

“They all seem to carrymoreconfidence about themselvesthis season than they did lastyear,” said Verst.

TheMustangsareledbyNateVerst, a three-year starter whoplayed a key role on the statesemifinalists.His leadershiphasbeen crucial as the Mustangshave relied on depth and versa-tility as they prepare for a 10thRegion run.

“All of our team membershave contributed at differenttimes throughout the season,”said Verst. “Several of the play-ers on our roster have beenasked to play numerous posi-tions, and all the players haveput the team first and have donewhat the coaches have asked tomakeourteamascompetitiveaspossible.”

Flairty won automaticberths to the statemeetMay 24at the University of Lexington.She also finished third in the800 and has a good chance torun that at state. The top twofinishers ineachregional eventgain state berths plus the next10 best performances state-wide.

Shortlyafter the3,200,Flair-ty ran a leg of the 4x400 relayand helped the Camels finishsixth.

“It’s not tough because Iknow I can handle it.” Flairtysaid. During the regional, allrunners got a break with a 90-minute rain delay. “I felt reallygood. It was really tough, butthe weather turned good after

we got done with the rain de-lay.”

The 3,200 was a highlight asFlairty ran a personal-best 12

ALEXANDRIA — Althoughtheir lastmatch in the10thRe-gion Tournament was a loss,Mason Geiman and Jake Wal-ters showed determination ayear in the making.

The Campbell County HighSchool doubles teammatesfell in the regional semifinalsto a team from Clark Countylastweek,whofinishedasrun-ner-up, beating theCamel pair6-4, 6-4 along the way.

“They were down to thefirst seed 0-4 in both sets andcameback to tie it both times,”said head coach Jeremiah So-wards. “They lost 6-4 bothtimes, but that was very im-pressive how they competedand never gave up.”

Getting to the semifinalsearned the Camels a berth inthis week’s individual statetournament in Lexington,

playing a first-round matchMay 15. It is the first time atstate for both players, but thesecond time in as many yearsthe Camels have sent a dou-bles pair down there. Gradu-ates Josh Schultz and LukeSpradlin lost in the first roundlast year, ending a longdrought for the boys tennisprogram at CCHS of 22 yearswithout a state participant.

“I’m really excited,” Wal-ters said. “They set the barlast year. The second that ithappened I set my mind on it.We want to go further thanthey did last year.”

At the regional, the Camelduo lost five games in theirfirst match and shut out theirnext opponent in the quarter-finals to earn the state bid.

“They committed early inthe offseason last year thatthey wanted to be really goodtennis players,” Sowards said.“Theyworked very hard, they

played tournaments. Tenniswasreally important to them.”

Both Geiman and Waltersinitiallywanted toplaysinglesbut Sowards felt they werebetter at doubles with theirstrength at the net.

“I talked to themabout dou-bles,” Sowards said. “It tooksome convincing but oncethey decided, they came inand attacked it.”

The sophomores play wellas a team.

“We’re very similar in howweplayed but there are thingswe do better than the other,”Walters said. “Mason is betterat volleys and forehands andI’m more of a rally guy.”

Nowtheywant to attack thebracket at state.

“The goal is towin state butthe competition is tough,”Walters said. “We still havetwo more years after this.”

“We have a very expe-rienced starting rotationand our bullpen has a lotof great arms with greatstuff,” Riordan said.“They have a chance to bevery special.”

The organization hasseemingly reached thebalance that most minorleague and independentleague teams strive for.The Freedom has beenable to bring fans to thegate through a combina-tion of creative and inno-vative promotions whileputting a quality producton the field. According toAnderson, the seasonticket holder base has in-creased 50 percent overthe past two seasons.

Please see the images on thevan photo. Kids are being hurtevery day. Some people find theblack and white image hard toview.Wemake no apologies. Thereal children suffer far worsethan the photo illustrates, butmaybe it got your attention?

Help us write a better endingto their story. Help us pick achild up off the street, feed,clothe and give them refuge fromthe storm. Help usmend theirbroken bones, broken spirits andwipe their tears away.

Last month in Northern Ken-tucky, we have received 174 re-ferrals for children who needed ahome. That is almost six childrena day, every day. We can’t keepup with the need. Good familiesare being called upon to servethese children. We are desperateto find strong, caring familiesable to meet this epidemic.

One of the 40 youth in resi-dence at DCCH recently askedme point blank, yet innocentlyand without anger, “What are youdoing to findme a forever fam-ily?” He pleaded, “I don’t want tospend another birthday or Christ-mas here.”

I dared not tell him that for a14-year old boy, his chances of

our recruitingan adoptivehome for himwere very slim.What do I tellthe 9-year-oldgirl, the 6-year-old boy?Wherecan we placethe siblinggroup of four?The littlest oneswere found bythe police out in

the street during a lightningstorm. They were cold and theirlittle lips were purple, wearingonly their dirty diapers. Thisthought haunts me that there arechildren for whom I cannot find agood home.

I have to think that people justdon’t know that there are chil-dren needing a warm bed and acaring adult. Please hearmy pleaand recognize the need of thechildren in our own community.

Some people express a willing-ness to help out but feel they arenot financially able to do so. Sub-sidies are available to assist fam-ilies with the care of a childplaced with them, both duringthe foster care phase andthroughout the adoption. Some

people say, “I could not give thechild up,” as if their loss will beharder than seeing a child diefrom abuse, or know that chil-dren sit in anguish with no familyat all. Maybe some fear that thework involved will be tough. Itwill be! Fostering and adopting isprobably the hardest job anyparent will undertake. It willmost certainly mean sacrifice.Yet during these tough times,Jesus says he will be with usalways, as promised inMatthew28:20. The Diocesan CatholicChildren’s Home recruits, trainsand supports individuals whochoose to provide both tempor-ary and permanent placementsfor children. The DCCHCenter iscurrently begging for more fos-ter and adoptive parents.

To receive additional informa-tion about foster parenting oradoption, contact Ron Bertsch orGene Blair at DCCH, 331-2040,ext. 8463. A free informationalmeeting is also planned for 6:30p.m. Tuesday, May 27, at DCCHin FortMitchell.

May 8 questionWhatdrives you crazy about oth-

er drivers?

“Turn signals or lack of use. Afriend of mine is a 29-plus-yearhighway patrol man. I said givemea ticket bookandanunmarkedcar and I will fill the book in eighthours. His response was I’ll giveyou three books and you will fillthem in eight hours. Turn signalsnot used.”

cjh

“Thereareafewhabitsofotherdrivers thatbugme:One is tailgat-ing i.e. following too closely be-hindmewhenIamgoing theprop-er speed.

“Theother is the lackofusingaturn signal.

“The final one would be thosedriving without insurance. Itseems that half the accidents arewith drivers who do not have the

proper insurance. The Ohio DMVneedstobeauthorizedtocheckforandactually seean insurancecardfrom anyone getting license tagsor a driver’s license renewal. GoFigure!”

T.D.T.

“1. Drivers who don’t stop atcrosswalks. Pedestrianswhodon’tuse crosswalks.

“2. Drivers who turn rightright, then immediately wait to

turn left into a corner property.They could have continuedstraight and just made one rightturn without obstructing traffic.

“3. Drivers that block an inter-section when the light is green. Iftherewasn’t room for you to clearthe intersection, justwait until thenext light cycle. This also leads tothe other annoying drivers thattake this opening to make a ‘rightturn on red,’ taking advantage ofthe driver waiting until there wasroom for them to advance. If ev-eryonewouldjustbeabitmorepa-tient, traffic should flow better asdesigned and if you don’t makethat traffic light cycle your carwill be first in line for the nextgreen light.”

“4. Two way left turn lanes arenot passing lanes.”

Here we were, wish-ing for warmer weatherand it finally arrived.That means asparagus,and lots of it.

Every day I go out tothe asparagus patch and

harvest acouple ofpounds atleast. Andit’s not abig patch.

With allthe otherspringchores,like tillingand plant-ing and

sowing, there isn’t a lotof time to plan for orprepare supper. Luckily,the “girls”/hens arekeeping up with ourdemand of eggs, so be-tween that and the abun-dance of asparagus,supper is a no brainer.

Asparagusbacon quiche

Leftovers microwavewell. The ends of aspara-gus are tough. Aftercleaning, snap toughends off. Use for soup.There’s a natural“break” between thetough and tender parts.

9 or 10 inch pie panlined with pie dough

8 slices bacon, cutinto small pieces

8 ounce or so aspara-gus, cut on angle in 1inch or so pieces

4 large eggs, roomtemperature

2 cups half and half ormilk

About 1 teaspoon saltand half teaspoon pep-per

1 heaping cup shred-ded cheese or more

Preheat oven to 375.Saute bacon and re-

move. In remainingdrippings, sauté aspara-gus a couple of minutesonly, just until it turnsbright green. Removefrom pan with slottedspoon.

Whisk eggs with milk.Add seasonings, cheese,bacon and asparagus.Pour into pie pan. Bake40-45 minutes untilpuffed all around. Thatmeans it’s done. Ifyou’re not sure, insert a

knife an inch from theedge. If it comes outclean, you’re good to go.

Tips from Rita’skitchen:

If crust browns toomuch before quiche isdone, make a “collar” offoil around the crust.

Asparagus: spearsof protection

Asparagus is a power-house when it comes tofolic acid, necessary forblood cell formation anda healthy liver. Pregnantwomen especially needto get enough folic acidfor healthy babies. As-paragus is also low insodium, a good source ofpotassium for healthyhearts and muscles, anda good source of fiber.

Oh, and one morething: It’s low in caloriesand has zero fat or cho-lesterol.

Have you ever neededa sign from God? “A rain-bow like Noah sign?”

I often wonder whyGod gave a rainbow as asign for Noah.

There must have beengreat destruction allaround after the flood.

As he exited the arkand witnessed the horri-ble aftermath, I wonder iftherewas amomentwhenhe lookedupandsaid, “Uhoh, did I do the rightthing?”

In a land of trying tobalance discipline and re-wards, focusing on theneeds of my immediate

family aswell asextendedfamily,makingwise fi-nancialdeci-sions,prepar-ing for

the future while leaving alittle room for fun, I amconstantly asking myself,(and God) “Did I do theright thing? Am I headingin the right direction?”

The other morning as Iwas juggling checkbooks,and school books and box-

es as we prepare for a po-tential move, the questionlingered inmymind, “Arewe doing the right thingLord?”

And along with a choirof sweet birds outside thebedroom window, a stillsmall voice answered meand gently whispered,“Trust in me with all yourheart, lean not unto yourown understanding. In allyour ways, acknowledgeme, and I will direct yourpath.” Proverbs 3:5, 6.

It was justwhat I need-ed, and although I feltquite content with thatone Scripture God laid onmy heart, He providedmore.

“AndmyGodshall sup-ply all your needs accord-ing to His riches in glorybyChrist Jesus.” Philippi-ans 4:19.

Trusting in this worldand leaning on the under-standing of man can only

give me what man has tooffer, and that’s not whatI’m looking for.

So what’s my plan fortoday?

Relieve a little stressand fear by acknowledg-ing God and trusting inHim to supply all myneeds according to Hisriches.

(Oh, and what are mythoughts about the rain-bow? It forced Noah tolookupand see thebeautyof God, instead of lookingaround to see the destruc-tion man brought on him-self.)

May you be blessedwith a few rainbows inyour path today, but re-member, you have to lookup to see them.

Julie House is a resident ofIndependence and founder ofEquipped Ministries, a Chris-tian-based health and well-ness program.

You have to look up to see the rainbow
