ANDERSON TWP. — Afive-year fight over a con-troversial mine proposalhere still has no end insight.

The Anderson Town-ship Board of Zoning Ap-peals recently voted to re-approve Martin MariettaMaterials Inc. request to

build and operate an un-derground limestonemine in northeastern An-derson Township.

It would involve blast-ing 400 to 800 feet under-ground and storing explo-sives on a 480-acre sitenear Broadwell andRound Bottom roads.

Since the originaltownship zoning approvalin June 2010, the case hasgone through a litany oflegal battles and historyseems on the verge of re-peating itself.

In late 2012 the 1st Dis-trict Court of Appealskicked the case back tothe Anderson Townshipzoning board after deter-mining it “exceeded itsauthority in conditioningits decision on the GoodNeighbor Fee.” Judgeswanted the board to de-cide whether the mine

would still be approvedwithout that fee.

That fee – oneofnearlytwo dozen conditions forapproval—requiredMar-tin Marietta to keep a $1million bond and pay thetownship 5 cents per tonofmaterial sold and deliv-ered from the site.

AndthisJuly theBoardof Zoning Appeals – notcomprised of any of thesame members who is-sued the original decision— removed the goodneighbor fee as a condi-tion and re-approved themine proposal.

Opponents to the minehave again appealed theboard’s decision to theHamilton County Com-

mon Pleas Court, whichheard the first appeal ofthe 2010 decision.

“It’s just an extremelycomplicated process,”said attorney Tim Mara,who is representing doz-ens of Anderson Town-ship residents and busi-

nesses fighting MartinMarietta’s plan.

“We spent a lot of timemulling this over, and it isvery difficult procedural-ly.”

Mara said they haveother issues with theboard’s July decision, inaddition to the concernsraised inpreviousappeals— mainly that the dustnoise, truck traffic andunderground vibrationswould be a nuisance andnegatively impact the en-vironment in the LittleMiami River valley.

Martin Marietta hassaid those concerns wereunlikely to affect the sur-rounding areas, and themine would benefit thecommunity.

“There are new issues

that include deliberationbehind closed doors, andevery one of the boardmembers is new to thecase,” Mara said.

“We have a little diffi-culty believing each ofthose board membersread the 3,000 pages oftranscripts and reviewedall the exhibits.”

Gary Powell, the attor-ney who has been repre-senting Anderson Town-ship through much of thiscase, said the boardmem-bers were different, butlikened it to members ofCongress not being thesame from one session tothe next.

“It will be interestingto see how (the courts) ap-

Zoning board re-approves proposed mine

By Lisa [email protected]

TIMELINEThis is a long and complicated case that’s bounced in and out of the court system. Here is a

timeline of the major events in the Anderson Township mine case.» August 2008: First Anderson Township Board of Zoning Appeals hearing on Martin

Marietta’s request to build and operate an underground limestone mine near Round Bottomand Broadwell roads.» June 2010: After nearly two years of public hearings, the township Board of Zoning

Appeals in a 3-2 decision approved a conditional use permit and variances to store explosivematerials. They attached nearly two dozen conditions for the mine’s approval.Opponents of the mine – Anderson Township residents and businesses, as well as the

villages of Newtown, Terrace Park and Indian Hill – appealed the Board of Zoning Appeals’decision to the Hamilton County Court of Common Pleas.» December 2011: Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Robert Ruehlman overturns

the township zoning board’s decision approving the mine. In his written judgment, Ruehl-man called the zoning board’s decision to approve the mine operation “replete with ex-amples of illegal acts as well as invalid, void and ineffective conditions, any one of whichwould be sufficient reason for rendering the entire decision as null and void.”» January 2012:Martin Marietta appeals Ruehlman’s decision to the 1st District Court of

Appeals. Arguments take place that summer.» December 2012: The 1st District Court rules that the good neighbor fee is illegal and

orders the Common Pleas Court to send the case back to the township Board of ZoningAppeals. They decline to rule on many of the other issues in the appeal.»March 2013:Martin Marietta appeals the decision sending the zoning case back to

Anderson Township. Briefs were filed but the case moves forward with the Board of ZoningAppeals.» July 2013: Anderson Township’s Board of Zoning Appeals re-approves the proposed

mine without the good neighbor fee.» August 2013: The case is again appealed to the Common Pleas Court and a motion is

filed to dismiss Martin Marietta’s March appeal to the 1st District Court.

MADEIRA — The exclu-sive-negotiating rightsfor a Paxton’s Grill indowntownMadeira endedJuly 22, but another offerwasmade to city officials.

Christine Parker, own-er of Creativities Art Stu-dio, told Madeira CityCouncil she wants to buythe land the Muchmoreand Hosbrook Homes siton and expand her busi-

ness on the site. A restau-rant like Paxton’s wouldgrow businesses in Ma-deira, Parker said, but sowould expanding withother, unique types ofbusinesses.

“We are a successful,built-from-the-ground-up-homegrown Madeirabusiness,” Parker said.“If I haven’t earned theright to sit at the (negoti-ating) table, then whohas?”

Parker wants to pur-chase the landbothhomesare on, move the Hos-brook home – currentlyoccupied by the MadeiraWoman’s Club – to theback portion of the city-owned property next toB&B Mower service, andbuild another structure toexpand her business. Theplan would allow the Ma-deira Woman’s Club tocontinue operating TheClothes Closet out of theHosbrook Home and bet-ter utilize the greenspaceon the lot, she said.

“I am personally andprofessionally againstmoving the houses ... Idon’t really want to dis-place the Woman’s Club,”Parker said. “I am askingyou to extend the samecourtesy or same oppor-tunity to us – a Madeiraresident and businessowner – that’s been ex-tended to Tom Powerstwice now.”

Mary Jo Morgan,member of the MadeiraWoman’s Club, said shewas thankful for the cityletting The Clothes Closetoperate in the HosbrookHome since 1995.

“Wefeel likeweare thelast civic group in Madei-ra,” Morgan said. “Welove our building but weunderstand where you’recoming from ... if you

move us we will be fullycooperative.”

City officials initiallybegan looking into sellingthe property to covermaintenance costs for thetwo homes more than ayear ago.

The vision probablywouldn’t be large enoughto be a hub for Creativi-ties forever, Parker said,but it would allow her tokeep her business in Ma-deira for the foreseeablefuture.

SiobhanPritchard,Ma-deira resident whosedaughters studied at Cre-ativities, said keeping thehomes in place is essen-tial for Madeira.

“Madiera is fortunateto have several architec-tural styles in the commu-nity,”Pritchardsaid. “TheMuchmore house is onethatdefines thecommuni-ty and adds charm.”

While Pritchard andothers spoke out againstmoving the homes, Ma-deira Mayor Rick Bra-sington insisted city offi-cials have no plans tomove the homes but it re-mains a possibility.

Moving the homeswould have been part of aplan to bring a Paxton’sGrill to the site, and al-though the restaurantownership group no long-er has exclusive-negotiat-ing rights with the city, itis still the only offer thecity has publicly discuss-ed.

Council did not re-spond to Parker’s offer tobuy the land, but if a lawsuit by resident Jim Hor-witz is successful in bar-ring the city from dealingwith the Paxton’s group,the council would have tolook at other options forthe property.

The new appeal hasbeen assigned to JudgeRobertRuehlman,who, inDecember 2011, over-turned the original ap-proval of the project. Hewrote inhisruling that thezoning board’s decisionwas “replete with exam-ples of illegal acts as wellas invalid, void and inef-fective conditions.”

Because the 1st Dis-trict judges declined torule on many of the otherissues in Ruehlman’s 2011

decision, Powell said it’sunclear if that will stand.

“In the relatively nearfuture we’ll determinehow thecasewill proceed,but short of that it’s hardto speculate how it willgo,” he said.

“This is kind of an un-usual posture for an ad-ministrative appeal, butit’s interestingfromanac-ademic standpoint.”

Mara said he thinksRuehlman’s decisionoverturning the Board ofZoning Appeals 2010 ap-proval of the mine willstill be in effect.

“In other words, we’llend up going back to the(1st District) Court of Ap-peals on those issues andthe new ones,” he said.

PRESS PREPS HIGHLIGHTS

By Scott SpringerandMark [email protected]@communitypress.com

INDIANHILL—Predicting In-dianHillHighSchool’sgirls ten-nis teamtowina leaguechampi-onship is similar to prognosti-cating darkness at midnight.

They’ve won the last 16years.

What that means is everyyear their current singles play-ers have been on Earth, the La-dy Braves have hung a banner.With just one loss at press time,they’re likely to do it again.

“Our singles players are allsophomores now,” coach GarySamuels said. “They’ve pickedit up. Meredith Breda’s playingreal well.”

Breda handles first singles,with classmatesMarenMcKen-na and Caroline Andersen play-ing second and third, respec-tively. Breda and Andersenwere Cincinnati Hills Leaguefirst team as freshmen, withMcKenna making second team.

More experience comes indoubles where juniors AlexSkidmore andAbby Singer playNo. 1. Second doubles is a rota-tion among juniors Jessie Osh-er, Morgan Koerting, Gabi Gib-son, seniorMaryAnnMillerandfreshmen Amalia Guzman andHannahMendohlson.

“It’s a deep team,” he said. “Ikept 11 players. We also havesome more good ones comingnext year.”

Samuels knows of the pipe-line as he serves as a local in-structor. He has watched many

of them swing since they werenot much bigger than their rac-quets.

“A lot of them I’ve knownsince theywerethatbig,”Samu-els said. “I teach at Camargoand I’ve had a lot of them. It isrewarding. I’ve known themforso long. It’s been great.”

With three sophomores whomight all beNo.1singles if theywere at different schools, theLady Braves again are in thedriver’s seat in the CHL. Bredais ranked in the Midwest andOhio Valley and just sufferedher first loss of the season. Atpress time,McKenna’s lost onlytwice and Andersen’s undefeat-ed.

Among Indian Hill’s winswas one against Magnificat,who was third in the state in Di-vision I last year. Wyoming ap-pears to be their chief competi-tion in the league.

“It’s going to be close as usu-al,” Samuels said. “Down theroad, after this year, I think it’llease up. This year it’s going tobeadogfight,nodoubtabout it.”

Most Division II opponentsare geared up for Indian Hillbased on their reputation. Thatshould continue for the near fu-ture as Samuels has more tour-nament-ready replacementsare on the way for 2014.

“Next year we have a coupleof real promising ones,” Samu-els said. “They’re going to be abig boost to the team.”

Ahead on the menu for Indi-an Hill is Chaminade-Julienneat home on Sept. 12.

INDIAN HILL — Coaches of-ten say the best thing aboutsophomores is they eventuallybecome juniors.

One short year makes aworld of difference for a highschool athlete.

Take, for example, Cincin-nati Country Day School quar-terback Cam Alldred. The ju-nior fromBatavia is beginninghis second season as startingquarterback for the Indians. Ifthe first week of the season isany indication, Alldred suc-cessfully shed his sophomoreskin.

“(He has) just a lot morepoise and a lot more maturity,physically and mentally,” saidCCD head football coach TimDunn. “He’s able to handle afew audibles now,whichwe’venot been able to do in the past.

“The other players have re-spect for him, what he can doas a player and a leader. He’sstepped up his game.”

Alldred led CCD to a 48-0win against Pendleton County(Ky.) in the first week of theseason. The Indians scored

five touchdowns on their first10offensivesnaps.Alldredhadthree touchdown passes onjust seven throws.

“We didn’t really find outhow resilient we could be, butit was impressive,” Dunn said.“Pretty much everything wedid worked.”

Alldred began his footballcareer as a 7-year-old at St. Ve-ronica School in Mt. Carmel,where he played quarterbackand defense.

“I liked the contact,” hesaid. “Hitting people is fun.”

Cam followed his brotherChance to CCD for high schooland became a fullback on the

JV team as a freshman. He re-turned toquarterbackasavar-sity sophomore.

“I go in and try to be kind ofcocky, kindof thinking I’mbet-ter than everybody else I’mplaying against,” he said. “I goin thinking they can’t stop us.That’s not really who I am, butyouhave tobeconfident tobeaquarterback.”

Alldred said he is gratefulfor the opportunity to play andlearn during a 4-6 season in2012; he looks forward tomoresuccess in 2013.

“I feel more comfortablethis year,” he said. “More atease. Just experience and be-ingmoreofa leader. I feel likeIknow my position very welland can help other people intheirs.”

Alldred prepares for agame by getting in a room byhimself and listening to coun-try music. He said his favoriteNFL quarterback is MichaelVick, who he admires for hisdual-threat abilities.

“I want to be able to be thequarterback who can run andthrow,”Alldred said. “It justtakes a lot of work in the off-season.”

READING — For a team thatdidn’t lose until falling to Lako-ta East in the tournament lastNovember, a couple earlylosses may be alarming.

Not necessarily for MountNotre Dame High School vol-leyball coach Joe Burke.

At the end of August, theCougars loadedup to play a pairof ranked teams from Louis-ville; Mercy Academy and Sa-cred Heart. After losing in fourto Sacred Heart, they drove toMercy for another five gamesto make it nine on the day.

“The teams that we playedwere very, very good,” Burkesaid. “Against Mercy it was areally high-level volleyballmatch and unfortunately wedidn’t comeout on the right end.We were up 14-9 in the fifth andended up losing 17-15.”

Prior to the Louisville trip,MND openedwith wins over St.Henry, Chaminade-Julienne,Centerville, Notre Dame andLakota West. None of themwould be considered “patsies.”

“Our schedule has been sig-nificant,” Burke said. “We gotNotre Dame Academy, whichwe’ve been wanting to do for a

long time.We started out with agauntlet of a schedule.”

At the volleyball power-house in Reading, the girlsmerely bring their lunch pailand take care of business.

“Once you start GGCL play,youhave tobe ready togoeveryday,” Burke said. “It’s really alot of fun because everyonegets into it andknowswhat kindof a battle it will be.”

Among Burke’s leaders isfour-year starter ChristineChandler. She brings talent andthe experience of some longtournament runs, including2011’s Ohio Division I title.

“She passes the ball verywell and plays great defense,”Burke said. “She has a whip ofan arm sling and is verystrong.”

Replacing the graduatedMi-chelleStrizak (Illinois) is sopho-more Sidney Mukes, who leads

the GGCL in kills.“The sky’s the limit for her,”

Burke said. “She has good vol-leyball IQ .”

Along with Chandler, Mukesis getting some college looksalong with sophomore middleblocker Dani Szczepanski.

Defensively, theCougars arerelying on somekey family con-nections. Junior libero MargoWolf is the sister of KelseyWolf, the libero from MND’slast state title team. SophomoreSabrina Wolf is the cousin ofboth and is a defensive special-ist.

“It’s never a bad thing tohave a Wolf,” Burke said. “Thewhole family is very competi-tive.We’re lucky to have them.”

An MND practice probablyfeatures some of the best vol-leyball in the city.Burkehas theluxury of pressuring starterswith equally talented girls thataren’t getting playing time.Many Cougars would easily bestandouts at other schools.

“This team is coming togeth-er very well,” Burke said. “Wegraduateda lot ofgirls lastyear,but between the people thatwere already here and the girlsthat came from our undefeatedJV team, we’ve really beenclicking very well.”

Blurred lines between movie, realitySeveral years ago I was

teaching mythology. At thefirst class meeting I told mystudents that the next sessionthey would be watching amovie about the creation of agod.

When the class started therewas great anticipation aboutwhat they would see. It was aclassic movie, filmed in 1934 inin Europe. There was greateconomic distress due to WorldWar I and a crippling inflation.The recent election seated acharismatic ruler. An earlyscene shows a labor campwhere people are well fed andmarched to work in uniformsto a military band with shovelsin place of guns on their rightshoulders.

It shouldn’t have taken you

long to figureout that thecountry wasGermany. Isaw it first in aclass about theNazi film in-dustry. Weviewed a num-ber of films.We alsolearned that

the Nazi party had operativesstationed outside the theaterswhen the movie let out. Theirjob was to interview the pa-trons and to glorify Hitler andthe Nazi Party. We can be cer-tain that dissent would lead totrouble.

The movie shows manyscenes of an absolutely adoringpopulace. One might wonder if

these scenes were scripted orif they were real. Either way,they were very effective.

There is a very importantpoint to make. The Germanpeople were very carefullybeing indoctrinated and con-trolled by the Nazi Party. Freebenefits such as camping andtime away from school forthese exciting trips were a biginducement. Those who chosenot to go were given extrawork in school with the strict-est control. What young childwould not take advantage ofthis adventure?

It was clear to the childrenand their parents that the gov-ernment provided food andmuch needed entertainment.What wasn’t clear was that thiswas just the beginning of the

government drawing the pop-ulation slowly into enslave-ment to it. History has manyexamples of the establishmentof a dictator. Many begin simi-lar to this.

The movie continues withidolizing crowds at every ap-pearance of Hitler. One canonly imagine the feeling ofrecovery (due to the war indus-try) after losing WWI and thegreat inflation that followed.Perhaps there was hope afterall!

Another scene has Hitlerpreparing to fly to Nurembergfor a party rally. We see himentering the plane with twogenerals. The movie shows theshadow of the plane over thecity. The image of a cross isnot accidental. Later we see

Hitler addressing the partyfaithful in Stuttgart as thegreat orator he was. Leni Rei-fenstahl, the cinematographerhas him encircled with a halo.At that point, many in my classwere gasping in wonder.

Yes, Hitler was regarded bymany as a God. Perhaps hebegan to believe it himself. Weall know where this led theGerman people. Is it possiblethat a leader here could yieldto the same self delusion?Could the Constitution be sub-verted to create a dictatorship?Benjamin Franklin warned ofthis. The movie is “Triumph ofthe Will” it is available at thelibrary with English subtitles.

Edward LevyCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

Barack Obama twice nowhas taken an oath to “faith-fully execute the office ofPresident of the UnitedStates, and … preserve,protect, and defend the Con-stitution of the UnitedStates.” And within thatConstitution is the followingrequirement of a president:“He shall take Care that theLaws be faithfully execut-ed…”

I would submit that thispresident has, and continuesto, violate his oath of officeby knowingly and flagrantlyignoring his obligation to seethat our nation’s laws arefaithfully executed. Thefollowing are specific ex-amples.

President Obama doesn’tlike the fact that Congresshas refused to legalize ille-gal aliens who were broughtinto this country (illegally)as children. So, he just uni-laterally ordered his im-migration service to ignorethe law, and do so anyway.This flagrant violation of thelaw just happened to takeplace shortly before the 2012election, when the Hispanicvote was considered so im-portant.

Next, welfare reform. Iwas around in 1996 when aRepublican Congress and aDemocratic president, BillClinton, passed historic wel-fare reform legislationwhich, among other things,implemented work require-ments in return for receiv-ing a welfare check.

Some liberal groups gotPresident Obama’s ear andconvinced him that workrequirements are demean-ing and mean-spirited. So, inflagrant violation of theletter and spirit of the law,Obama unilaterally gavegovernors the power toweaken the work require-ments. Fortunately, a lot ofRepublican governors choseto continue to enforce workrequirements as enacted,but a number of “enlight-ened” Democrat governorstook advantage of the oppor-tunity to weaken the workrequirements, and thusgreatly undermined welfarereform.

Next,Obamacare.This is argu-ably Presi-dent Oba-ma’s mostsignificantaccomplish-ment (orgreatestfailure, de-pending on

one’s point of view). Amongother things, the law re-quires employers to coveremployees under Obama-care, or pay significant fines(the employer mandate).Obama, without consultingwith the elected representa-tives of the American peo-ple, the Congress, unilateral-ly announced that this as-pect of the program wouldbe delayed for one year. He’sbreaking the law, or at thevery least, not enforcing thelaw as it is currently writ-ten.

Most recently, the ObamaJustice Department hasdecided that our federaldrug laws are too tough, sothey’re just not going toenforce them. Unbelievable!

The bottom line is … it’sthe president of the UnitedStates’ responsibility to seethat our laws are enforced.To do otherwise is a violationof the sacred oath he took,twice, to “take Care that theLaws be faithfully execut-ed.”

In this respect, PresidentObama reminds me of anoth-er president who had a simi-lar view about the law, Rich-ard Nixon. Nixon was onceasked if it was okay for apresident to do an illegal act,if that president believed itwas in the best interest ofthe country to do so. Nixon’sresponse was, “When thepresident does it, that meansthat it’s not illegal.”

Of course, we knowwhere Richard Nixon endedup with that kind of think-ing.

Last week’s questionDo you think the U.S. is safer

now that it was 12 years ago, be-fore the Sept.11attacks?Whatdoyou most remember about thatday?

“No, I don’t thinkwe’re safer.“We have a president who is

much more interested in hispersonal popularity and vaca-tions than taking care of ourcountry. To be fair about it, Idon’t think he’s capable of thejobanddoesn’thavethesensetoappoint people who are.

“I pray that we get throughthenext3yearswithoutanother9-11.”

J.K.

“We probably are safer thanwewere12yearsago,but it’s thekind of statistic that is difficultto quantify because of politicalbickering and ignorance ofmost of the public.

“It’s also true that many at-tacks may have been thwarted,but the kind ofwork by counter-intelligence people that pre-vents them is secret and un-known tomost of us. That’s whyit’s generally ‘classified.’

“I remember being in myclassroom teachingmy seventhgrade a story that had Manhat-tan as its setting and worryingthe military might shoot downthe jet over Pennsylvania be-fore it circled back around toWashington.”

TRog

“Personally I never felt un-safebeforeorafter9-11. Itwasatragedy, but when you areraised practicing hiding underyour desk because of a nuclearattackyoutendto take theeventwith a different perspective.

“When it occurred I was inmy home office.Mywife yelledand my immediate commentupon seeing it on TV was that itwas Bin Laden.

“I told her that Pres. Clintonhad warned the incoming ad-ministration to watch out forhim, but they ignored him on

that and just about everythingelse due to their arrogance. Thesecond plane confirmed mysupposition.”

J.Z.

“Yes, if your question asksabout ‘from foreign terrorists.’No, if your question asks about‘from our re-elected leaders.’

“While deeply saddened thatday and for some period afterthat day, the bombers knewthey could ruin our country ifthey could make our re-electedofficials run amok with ourfreedoms ... obviously, this hashappened. It’s my biggest fear,and it is ongoing.”

K.P.

“TheHomelandSecurityActis one of the biggestRepublicanslush funds in history. Anyonewho looks at the expenditureswill be depressed by thewastedmoney.

“Hiring people to look atyour underwear is not makingyou safer. Andmost of themon-ey goes to Republican contrib-utors, not the idiots you see atthe airport.

“Isreal accomplishes great-er security without body scans.

“I can't get over the way theRepublicans have hijacked theissue of personal security. Theyincrease personal insecurity bypassing gun laws which allowmorons to obtain guns.

“We all know that the NRA isan effective influence on Con-gress, but how many of us real-ize that the NRA is simply andexclusively a lobbying front forgun manufacturers?

“Wecannotbeeffective ifwedo not use the brains we havebeen endowed with.

“The alternative is a declin-ing human intelligence.

N.F.

“I don't know if we are saferor not? It depends on howmuchour government will allow us toknow and how that informationis processed by them.

“I guess if I had to pick IwouldsayAmerica isnotassafeas before 911 because I believewe will always have Muslimswanting to destroy our way oflife.”

Dave D.

“September 11th was a hor-rific day. I remember fearingfor my friends and relatives inNew York and feeling such sor-row for the victims and theirfamilies. Given what the nationwas told by our government,wetrusted their actions in re-sponse. In retrospect, we hadmuch more to fear from the re-sults of their governance thanwe did from terrorism.

“In the years since 9-11,Americans have seen jobs out-sourced and downsized. Wagesare stagnant and the unions areweaker. Corporations are peo-ple now. Medicare and SocialSecurity are a crap-shoot. Thefederal government is crippledbyagroupofcongressmenwho,without fail, put dollars beforepeople, starving communitiesof first responders, teachers,and social services. They fightto repeal the ACA while insist-ing on cuts to the EPA, the CDC,and the NIH.

“Our state, likemany others,is lead by officials who have noproblem manipulating the vot-ing process to win elections.Once elected, they make lawsthat concern women’s healthbased on religious beliefs. Inmy community, FOX is newsand we take school safety ad-vice from the NRA. Terrorismaside, America is not safer.”

Every cloud has asilver lining. There’s areason for everything.Being challenged in lifeis inevitable, being de-feated is optional. Ourfamily friend, Ruth Ann

Ashburn,could havequotedthese say-ings aftera stormwreckedhavoc withtwo of herfavoritetrees: Amaple sheraised

from a sapling and thetallest wild cherry treeI’ve ever seen. My hus-band, Frank, and I wentover to help. Frankbrought his saw and tack-led the smaller limbs.The professionals camein for the rest. The silverlining here is we nowhave a good amount ofwood aging for next year.

The storm alsoknocked a lot of our ap-ples off our trees, so Ihad to use the fallen onesup. Granddaughter Evaand I made applesaucefor her little sister, Emer-son. She washed the ap-ples and I chunked themup for the slow cooker. Ialso dehydrated someapples and have appleleather/rollups drying inthe sun. Check my blogfor those recipes plusphotos.

Chris Lipnick’s appleblossom cake

Chris, a Kentuckyreader, immigrated tothis country fromGer-many. Chris, like mydaughter-in-law Inge, isan expert baker. Chrisshared this recipe a whileback and I get requestsfor it when apple seasonrolls around. A moist and“good keeper” cake. “Ev-eryone wants the recipe,”Chris told me.

3 eggs2 cups sugar11⁄4 cups canola oil

3 cups all-purpose flour1⁄2 teaspoon each cinnamon,nutmeg, cloves, salt

11⁄2 teaspoons baking soda1 teaspoon vanilla3 cups peeled and choppedapples (Chris likes GrannySmith)

1 cup chopped pecans orwalnuts

Preheat oven to 350degrees and grease andflour Bundt pan. Beatsugar and eggs untilcreamy. Add oil slowlyand beat until blended.Sift flour with spices, saltand soda. Pour into eggmixture and blend. Addvanilla, apples and nuts.Blend well and pour intopan. Bake 11⁄4 hours. Cooland remove from pan.Dust with powderedsugar or make glaze oflemon juice and pow-dered sugar.

Kathy L.’s poorman’s lobster

I knew I could counton you! A reader who hadlost her recipe and washoping beyond all hopethat I could help find itrequested this. “I’vemade this quite a bitalthough not recently.This recipe is probably atleast 20 years old. Since Idusted this off, I think Iwill fix it again soon,”Kathy said.

1 lb. cod frozen, thawedenough to cut (about 1hour at roomtemperature)

2 cups water3 tablespoons cider vinegar2 teaspoons salt3 tablespoons butter1⁄2 teaspoon paprika

Cut each block offillets into equal chunkseach about 1-inch square.In a medium saucepan,bring water, vinegar andsalt to a boil over moder-ately high heat. Add fishchunks and reduce heatto moderate and simmer15 minutes until fish isopaque in center. Use anovenproof pan and meltthe butter in it. Removefish with slotted spoon

and place in a singlelayer in prepared pan.Sprinkle fish with papri-ka and spoon butter overfish. Broil 3 to 5 inchesfrom heat source forabout 5 minutes, spoon-ing butter over fish once.

Roasted smashedpotato cakes

For Susan B., an East-side reader, who atethese at a restaurant.“They were seasonedwith just salt and pepper,and garnished withchives,” she said.

About 2 pounds small orbaby potatoes (I usedmylittle garden potatoes)

Olive oilSalt and pepper to tasteOnion chivesSour cream (optional)

Cook potatoes anddrain. Preheat oven to450 degrees. Brush bak-ing sheet with oil andheat in oven for 5 min-utes. When potatoes arecool enough to handle,gently flatten and brushwith oil, and add sea-sonings. Roast about 15minutes or so. Turn overand roast until golden,another 15 minutes or so.Garnish with chives andside of sour cream.

I’ve received severale-mails recently claim-ing to come from thepost office and FederalExpress telling me theywere unable to deliver apackage.

The e-mails look sus-picious and, upon check-ing, I’ve learned I’m oneof many people receiv-ing them.

Two such e-mailscame in August, alleged-ly from the UnitedStates Postal Service,asking me to downloadand print out a label,then take it at the near-est post office. Fortu-nately, I didn’t do thatbecause it could havecaused big problems.

Federal Express has awarning on its websitesaying scammers areusing its corporate logo,colors and legal dis-claimers to make themappear authentic. But itsays this is all just ascam to trick you intodivulging your personalor account information.Scammers could try toget you to send themmoney or do something

for the past few yearsbecause they are low-tech and can easily bedeployed on a massivescale. These so-called“phishing” scams con-tinue to fool people – andsome contain a virusthat will be unleashed onyour equipment if youdownload anything theysend. That virus can beused to steal personalinformation from yourcomputer.

FedEx says the mainthing the scammerswant is to collect user-names, passwords, So-cial Security numbers,and credit card details.Consumer Reports saysone of its staffers re-ceived one of these e-mails last year which

stated he’d have to pay afee if he failed to act.

Like FedEx, the U.SPostal Service has awarning on its websiteabout e-mails claimingto be from the postalservice seeking onlinepostage charges or tell-ing of attempted or in-tercepted package deliv-eries. Postal officialssay you should deletethese messages withouttaking further action. Itsays, “The Postal In-spection Service isworking hard to resolvethe issue and shut downthe malicious program.”

Remember, neitherFedEx nor the post of-fice will send you ane-mail. If they need you,they’ll drop a note off atyour home or send you aletter. They have youraddress, but not youre-mail information.

The township is dis-cussing its options for aplan to reduce speeds onHosbrook Road in Ken-wood.

The project first beganas the township plannedfor the construction of theFBI’s newCincinnati fieldoffice building, whichopened last year next tonorthbound Interstate 71just south ofMontgomeryRoadonanewstreet,Ron-

ald ReaganDrive.Residents became con-

cerned that toomuch traf-fic would have to travelthrough their neighbor-hoods on Hosbrook Roadto connect with RonaldReaganDrive.

Although Ronald Rea-gan Drive was construct-ed to draw a line betweenthe commercial section atthe corner of Hosbrookand Montgomery Roadand the residential neigh-borhood south of it, astudy was done to deter-mine options for slowingthe additional traffic ex-pected.

That study determinedthat visible concrete me-

dians from MontgomerytoEuclidAvenueandside-walks to Lynnfield Courtwould be the best optionsforslowingtrafficonHos-brook Road, said GregBickford, planning andzoning director/assistant

township administrator.However, because Ma-

deira is installing side-walks on Euclid to itsdowntown sidewalkscould be built for the en-tire stretch of Hosbrook.

Before the Board of

Trusteesmakesadecisionto consider that option,the township’s mainte-nance department willsurvey howmuch proper-ty, trees and other assetsthe street and its resi-dents would lose with thelonger sidewalks, Bick-ford said.

If more sidewalks arepursued by the board, thetownship will likely bringresidents back in fromHosbrook Road and theconnecting neighbor-hoods to discuss their opi-nions for the plan.

The board could con-sider that option becauseit would create more con-nectivity between Madei-

ra’s downtown and Mont-gomery Road’s business-es, he added.

Bickfordsaid thatorig-inal, preliminary esti-mates for sidewalks toLynnfield would costabout $300,000, whilestretching them down toEuclid would cost about$800,000.

Theproject is still in itsearly stages, and thetownship will likely beginlooking for a consultant todraw up construction de-signs in October.
