A recent accident that killeda mom and her daughter, out onan evening walk in ColerainTownship, serves as a reminderof the importance of pedestriansafety.
Jessica Lutz, 29, and hermother, Patricia Lutz, 65, diedafter being struck by a carwhile they were out walkingnear their home Oct. 12. An in-vestigation is pending.
According to an April 2014report by the U.S. Departmentof Transportation’s NationalHighway Traffic Safety Ad-ministration, 4,743 pedestrians
were killed and about 76,000were injured in traffic crashesin the United States in 2012.
One hundred fifteen of thosedeaths occurred in Ohio.
That’s one pedestrian killedevery two hours, and one in-jured every seven minutes.
TheNHTSA reported that 70percent of the fatalities did nottake place at intersections, andthe vast majority, 89 percent,happened when the weatherwas clear, not raining, snowingor foggy.
The majority, 70 percent,also took place at night.
Municipal law typically re-flects Ohio Revised Code4511.50, which requires pedes-
trians to walk on the left side ofthe road, facing traffic, if nosidewalk is available.
If there is a sidewalk, howev-er, pedestrians are supposed towalk on it and not in the street,according to ORC 4511.50.
Pedestrians, which includewalkers and runners, mustcross the street at a crosswalk,and if none is available, mustyield to traffic.
The Forest Hills LocalSchool District has a number ofstudents who walk to and fromschool. As such, safety remainsa priority.

Mercy Health - AndersonHospital recently celebrated its30th anniversary. The hospital,which is at 7500 State Road inAnderson Township opened itsdoors August 1984 as an exten-sion of Our Lady ofMercyHos-pital in Mariemont.
While the Anderson locationcelebrated three decades of op-eration, the Mercy Health -RookwoodMedical Center cele-brated itsone-yearanniversary.The facility, which is at 4101Ed-wards Road in Oakley, beganoperation in the summer of2013.
Both facilities have had animpact on their respective com-munities.
“The hospital is a viable partof the economy and (the) sus-tainable growth of a communi-ty,” saidJeffGraham,presidentof the Mercy Health east mar-ket.
Mercy Health - AndersonHospital is in the midst a $70million expansion that began in2013. The project includes ex-panded parking at the facility,atrium renovations and con-struction of a new five-story pa-tient tower that will house 90private rooms and incorporate69,327 square feet of renova-tions to the existing hospital.
The project, which will becompleted in 2016, also involvesexpansionand renovation of theintensive care unit as well asrenovation of the obstetrics andfamily birthing center.
Graham said Mercy Healthhas had “a long-running part-nership” with Anderson Town-ship and the Forest Hills LocalSchool District.
Students at Nagel MiddleSchool helped in the design ofboth the parking lot as well as afamilywaitingroom, that is alsopart of the expansion project.
“The impact of that facilityandthemedicalofficebuildingshave been tremendous,” saidSteve Sievers, assistant admin-istratorofoperationsforAnder-son Township. “The hospitalwas a springboard for many ofthe developments along theFive Mile corridor.”

tions coordinator for thedistrict, said at the ele-mentary schools and Na-gel Middle School staffmembers monitor stu-dents as they arrive anddepart.
“To increase safety atthe elementary schools,students are released inphases,” she said.
Daggett said bus rid-ers are released first, fol-lowed by students whoare transported by carand lastly by studentswho walk.
“At all schools, staffmembers help directtraffic,” Daggett said.This includes ensuringthat students are safelyable to cross the street.
At Nagel MiddleSchool as well as at An-derson and Turpin highschools, Daggett said po-lice officers help directtraffic flow.
Daggett said studentand pedestrian safety
considerations were alsopart of the recent ForestHills ballot issue with el-ementsgeared towardal-leviating traffic conges-tion at many of theschools and moving thebus compound off of theAnderson High Schoolcampus.”

STEPS FOR SAFETYThe U.S. Department of Transportation’s National High-
way Traffic Safety Administration offers theses remindersfor pedestrians:»Walk on a sidewalk or path whenever one is available.» If there is no sidewalk or path available, walk facing
traffic, on the left side of the road, on the shoulder, as faraway from traffic as possible.» Keep alert at all times; don’t be distracted by electronic
devices, including radios, smart phones and other devicesthat take your eyes and ears off the road environment.» Be cautious night and day when sharing the road with
vehicles. Never assume a driver sees you.» Cross streets at crosswalks or intersections whenever
possible.» If a crosswalk or intersection is not available, locate a
well-lit area, wait for a gap in traffic that allows youenough time to cross safely, and continue to watch fortraffic as you cross.» Stay off freeways, restricted-access highways and other
pedestrian-prohibited roadways.» Be visible at all times. Wear bright clothing during the
day, and wear reflective materials or use a flashlight atnight.

the area.“It has been a develop-
ment and quality of lifedriver (in the township),”he said.
NanetteBentley, direc-tor of public relations forMercy Health, said theMercyHealth -RookwoodMedical Center was builttomeet a need at that spe-cific location, whichserves the communitiesof Oakley, Hyde Park, Mt.Lookout, Norwood andMariemont.
“There wasn’t any con-veniently located healthcare (facility) there, sowebuilt the emergency de-partment to meet con-sumer demand,” Bentleysaid.
The facility is 24,000square feet and houses anemergency department,physician offices and animaging department.
“We believe it is meet-ing a need in Oakley thatwasn’t previously there,”Bentley said.

by residents about trafficdensity onEdwardsRoad,Craig Rozen, board presi-dent of the Oakley Com-munity Council, saidMer-cyHealth has been a goodneighbor and worked toresolve potential trafficissues.

‘HUGE IMPACT’IN CLERMONTCOUNTYMore than 40 years
after it opened, the everexpanding Mercy HealthClermont Hospital con-tinues to play a key rolein Batavia Township andneighboring communi-ties.“It’s had a huge im-
pact,” said Matt VanSant, president and CEOof the Clermont CountyChamber of Commerce.“From a direct stand-point, there are hun-dreds of jobs there, andthat has a huge effect onthe local economy.There’s also the rippleeffect, the additionaljobs created, the needfor banks to make depos-its and houses that arebuilt.”Van Sant described
Mercy Health, with itseconomic impact andnumber of volunteers inClermont County, as “akey player in the EastSide market.”Last year, the Mercy
Health Clermont Hospitalundertook a $2.5 millionexpansion and reno-vation of its emergencydepartment. That projectwas designed to improveefficiency and treatpatien faster at a highlevel of care.In June, the Mercy
Health Clermont Hospitalopened an 18,000-squarefoot newly renovatedbehavioral health facility.The 24-bed facility isdesigned to offer a com-prehensive approach tobehavioral health carethat previously didn’texist. It offers acute care,partial hospitalizationand intensive outpatientprograms in a safe set-ting that promotes heal-ing.Clermont County Sher-
iff A.J. Rodenberg saidthe latter project haslikely helped his deputiesbecause more patientswith mental health issuescan be held for observa-tion so that they’re notout wandering about thecommunity.Rodenberg said his
department gets calls“from time to time”when someone acts outat the hospital’s emer-gency department. Butoverall, he said his agen-cy has not seen any in-creased calls for servicewith the expansions, andhe said the hospital hasbenefited the communi-ty.

OHSAA announces pairings
E. WALNUT HILLS — St.Ursula Academy’s vol-leyball team is back. Af-ter enduring a few up-and-down seasons of me-diocrity, the Bulldogsearned their secondstraight-district champi-onship. Over the past twoseasons, the program hasposted an overall recordof 35-17.
Still, the Bulldogs arefar from satisfied.
“We set the bar high inour gym. It is our desireto hang a state champion-ship banner every year,but we don’t sit aroundand talk about that all thetime,” said third-yearhead coach Kevin Lucas.“We are a process-orient-ed group. Our focus wason improving each day,and we certainly accom-plished that.”
The squad’s six sen-iors are largely responsi-ble for the program’sturnaround. CarolynKnollman, Natalie Da-
nenhauer and Anna Fick-er have started everymatch for the past threeseasons.LauraJaneProf-itt has been an emotionalleader and offensive
weapon, leading the teamin kills. Kate Gibler andMary Kate Ceddia havealso played importantroles. In addition to lead-ing the team to consecu-tive district titles, theseniors also set many in-dividual program statis-tical records.
“Our senior class hasaccomplished so muchand really put St. Ursulaback on the map,” saidLucas. “They are not onlygreat volleyball players,but tremendous youngwomen.”
With the core of theteam comprised of sen-iors, the Bulldogs stillneeded some underclass-men to step up. JuniorsJackie Wildermuth, De-laney Dolle, and LaurenMassa filled those roles.
“We knew we had avery strong class of sen-iors coming into theyear,” said Lucas. “I waspleasantly surprisedwith the play of our un-derclassmen.”
Wildermuth and class-mate Maddie Torbeck
will step into leadershiproles next season. Tor-beckwill be theBulldogs’defensive leader. Theylearned how to lead fromthis season’s group ofseniors who took it uponthemselves to turn theprogram,and this season,around.
After back-to-backlosses to conference ri-
vals Mount Notre Dameand Mercy in late Sep-tember, the Bulldogs fellto 10-7 overall.
Most importantly, theseniors felt that the teamwas not playing up to itspotential.
“We hit a rough patchone week losing twomatches to Mount NotreDame and Mercy, who
were both very strongteams, but we didn’t playour brand of volleyball,”said Lucas. “Our seniorleadersdecidedwereallyweren’t preparing hardenough and made surethat from that week for-ward we would not ac-cept just being good; weneeded to strive to begreat.”

Divorce is painful, evenwhen you can see it on thehorizon.
Within 42 months, suburbsaround the city of Cincinnatihave a major decision tomake, but it’s not a typicalelection ballot choice.
The City of Cincinnati andHamilton County have a 1968Metropolitan Sewer Districtoperating agreement that endsin March 2018. At the recentquarterly meeting of our FirstSuburbs Consortium of South-west Ohio, I spoke to encour-age my elected peers fromother communities to join in amutual effort to plan our col-lective response to what fol-lows the likely splitup.
MSD has been owned by thecounty but operated by the
city for 50years, and isfunded byeach propertyowner in theregion whouses sewerservice. Afterthe split, Cin-cinnati CityHall will lacktotal MSDcontrol for the
first time in a half-century.Let’s take time to plan andnegotiate from a position ofstrength as we suburban elect-ed leaders come to the table onthe county’s team.
Costs of the sewer up-grades mandated by our clean-up consent decree have gener-ated angry calls from sub-
urban residents about theirbills. The recurring “rateshock” of a large annual rateincrease for cleanup resultedfrom postponed decisions ofthe 1950s and 1960s. Today weare paying billions of dollarsto do the cleaning, storing andseparating that is necessary toreduce wastewater enteringthe Ohio River. Whicheverentities perform the MSDroles after March 2018 willhave to comply with thosefederal court orders.
Our county’s suburbanelected leaders have to decide,what ownership should we andthe county assert, and whatbondholder assurances will beappropriate? This 42 months’advance notice allows electedofficials outside Cincinnati
city limits to determine whatwe want our county govern-ment to do after March 2018,assuming the 1968 terms willinevitably be revised.
The employees of the city-run MSD sewer operationsexpected that their pensionswithin the city’s pension pro-gram are securely inside thecity program, but nowmay bepart of the Ohio PERS pen-sions paid to county and localnon-Cincinnati employees. Dowe as suburbs want that pointof leverage to be utilized inour negotiations for the 2018empowerment of the county?Would the removal of MSDworkers impact the city’sretirement system as greatlyas some fear that it would? It’sa labor bargaining and fiscal
planning issue. This is notscary, unless we ignore itsfiscal impacts until the lastminute.
I am hopeful that my elect-ed peers fromMSD-usingcommunities inside the county(but outside Cincinnati) willjoin in an effort to get ourcollective plans together. Wewould enlist the county com-mission, and reassure bondholders and soon-to-retireMSD workers that they willnot be overlooked when the2018 divorce occurs. Let’sstart planning for the changesahead!

Cincinnati’s Union Termi-nal, which houses the Mu-seum Center, has been men-tioned a great deal lately.
Although it is an architec-tural landmark full of inter-esting exhibits and a must seesight for out-of-town visitors,for families it is also a placeto share memories of earlierdays and make plans for fu-ture outings.
The Cincinnati HistoryMuseum has Cincinnati inMotion, sometimes called thetrain display. However it isCincinnati in miniature whichfeatures models of CrosleyField, Union Terminal andmany neighborhoods as theylooked in the early 20th centu-ry.
On a family visit, tell aboutvisits made to the CincinnatiZoo in its earlier days and, ifold enough, trips to CrosleyField, Coney Island or LunkenAirport when it was the mainairport for Cincinnati. Nearthe end of the museum, thereis Public Landing, a repro-duced river town includingthe Queen of the West river-boat. Costumed interpretersmay be there to add informa-tion.
In the Museum of Scienceand Natural History are op-portunities to plan for future
outings. Themound build-er exhibitcould lead toa visit to theintriguingSerpentMound or toFort Ancientto see NativeAmericanearthworksabout 2,000
years old. A good opportunityto share thoughts and memo-ries is at the space age dis-play.
It is small and an excellentopportunity to expand on itsince it occurred during ourlife time. That could lead to afuture visit to the Neil Arm-strongMuseum.
Next, there is the popularCave and Ice Age that couldlead to a visit to MammothCave. The cave has a wheel-chair accessible path. Ofcourse, Dino Hall is popularand it is near the exit to themuseum.
Duke Energy Children’sMuseum, in the lower level, ismeant for those 10 and under.Energy Zone andWaterWorks are popular areas aswell as TheWoods, an area forchildren 8 and above whichfeatures a new aquarium. It
may a lead to a trip over toKentucky’s Newport Aquari-um.
In addition to its threemuseums, it contains the five-story Robert D. Lindner Fam-ily Omnimax Theater, specialexhibits and Tower A, theoriginal main control tower.For the train fan of all ages,Tower A is like a train mu-seumwhere they can get aview of the tracks still in usetoday, and explore the arti-facts showing Union Termi-nal’s rich history.
On Nov. 7, the annual Holi-day Junction will open. It willhave the large, popular, modeltrain display, part of whichwas the Duke Energy displayformerly located downtown.Holiday Junction also has akids' train ride and SantaClaus.
If there are visiting Redsor baseball fans, as you leavethe Union Terminal, you canpoint out that the 1869 RedStockings, the first, openly, allprofessional and best team ofits time, played near the bot-tom of the fountain. There is amarker at the bottom of thefountain near the north park-ing lot that gives more detail.

Oct. 29 questionDid you or will you vote early
this year, or will you wait untilElection Day? Why?
“I have voted via the mailon absentee ballots for thepast 8 years or so. The ballot isavailable ahead of time fromHamilton County via phone orwww.votehamiltoncounty.org.
There are many advantagesto this mail-in method such asno lines, weather concerns ordriving and parking concerns.The best part is I can sit athome with all the informationin front of me and take mytime intelligently filling outthe ballot and mail it in early.Every year I see that hun-dreds of people stand in linedowntown for early voting atthe board of elections. Theyare in line and my ballot hasalready been counted. GoFigure!”
T.D.T.
“I have never understoodearly voting. I worked as apilot for 46 years, and neverhad a problem with getting anabsentee ballot. Early votingmade it possible for me to godown to the Board of Electionsrather than mail in the ballot,and watch the lines of peoplebeing brought in with peopleto ‘help’ them get registeredand vote. Many were quiteopen about being students notfrom the area, and quite pos-sibly registered to vote else-where. Made me wish for apurple inkwell, where peoplecould receive a mark that saidthey had already voted, butcould only be used once. Ibelieve voter fraud is one ofthe largest issues facing ourRepublic this election cycle.”
D. B.
“I did already vote throughan absentee ballot. I started
this one year when I knew Iwas going to be out of town.but when it became availableas a means of early voting Iopted for this method in al-most every election. It givesme time to sit with the ballotand then take time to do someresearch on the candidatesand issues so I can make asinformed a decision as pos-sible.
“Also, I can then ignore allthe negative ads, mailers andsuch that seem to inundate theelection as the actual in per-son election grows closer.”
C.S.
“I do not believe thereshould be the option of votingearly. If you truly care aboutthe electoral process and val-ue the results of your choicesthen you will make this dayand your vote a priority, not aninconvenience so easily re-placed.
“We’ve created an entiregeneration of people (yes vot-ers) who really don’t care whois elected unless they (thevoter) can somehow get morepublic assistance. But they’llvote today because they saw abillboard or got a postcard orheard any one of a dozen TVor radio adds every half hour,on the same day they decide tocast their early ballot.”

Yesterday my throatand head were stuffedup and the last thing Iwanted to do was workin the herb garden.Mother Nature was co-operating with theweather, so I knew I had
to startgettingthe gardencleaned upfor winter.I wasgrumblingsince mytaskseemed toloom solarge. Theweeds hadsprung up
just about everywhere. Iwas taking my gardenplaque down when Istopped to really read itonce again. My attitudechanged immediately. Ithought you’d enjoyseeing the verse I readthat put me in a positiveframe of mind. Not onlythat, but when I cut backthe eucalyptus, thymeand horehound, thosepowerful herbs that helpwith respiratory ail-ments, my head andthroat cleared up nicely.Lesson learned!
Helen Sarky’sLebanesevegetarian greenbean stew
I love this recipefrom Lebanese friend,Helen Sarky, an An-derson Township reader.A version of these beansare going to be served atthe upcoming “A taste ofLebanon” held at St.Anthony’s of Paduachurch on Victory Park-
way. The feast is onSunday, Nov. 23, fromnoon to 6 p.m. and themenu will also containkibbee (the main meatdish of Lebanon), hum-mus, vegetarian falafel,stuffed cabbage andgrape leaf rolls, amongother traditional favor-ites. These are genera-tions-old recipes, trea-sured heirlooms. They’llalso have dancing andmusic and carryout, aswell. Check out the sitewww.stanthonyofpaduachurch.com orgive them a call at (513)961-0120.

Cauliflower pureeAccording to the foo-
dies, cauliflower is thenew kale. I just harvest-ed some Jerusalem ar-tichokes from the gar-den and roasted thosewith some cauliflowerand Brussels sprouts.They were a deliciousand different side dish.But you know what?Cauliflower can stand onits own as a nice puree togo alongside thatThanksgiving turkey.Lower in carbs thanpotatoes, this puree canbe done several hours
ahead and reheated.2 heads cauliflower,
stems and leaves re-moved, florets cut up
Lemon juice to taste1/2 stick butter or
substitute or more totaste
Half & half or whip-ping cream - can be lowfat half & half
Salt and pepper totaste
Chopped parsley forgarnish
Either steam the cau-liflower or cook in boil-ing salted water untilsoft but not mushy.Drain very well, returnto pot and shake overhigh heat to get rid of
any excess moisture.Now either put it in pro-cessor or beat untilsmooth in mixer. If usingprocessor, pulse until it’ssmooth as you like. Beatin lemon juice, butterand half & half until it’sthe consistency youwant. Usually 1/2 cup ofliquid is sufficient, but itdepends upon the size ofthe cauliflower. Sprinklewith parsley for color.
