Christmas displays are pop-ping up all around us. So, whynot a vintage toys display to in-spire the imagination?

Toys from Christmas pastare currently on display at theGreaterLovelandHistoricalSo-ciety Museum on North River-side Drive in Loveland. Mu-seum director Jan has createdan imaginative display of toys“powered by the imagination.”Your mind can wander fromdolls, to trains, planes, automo-biles, games, and stuffed ani-mals.

“Some are really historic;more I’d call vintage,” Bellersaid. “There are a few early1900 items, but more are littlebit later.”

Lionel trains provided byDick Schaeffer, Mike and Peg-gy Goodwin, and MargaretKeifer highlight more than onedisplay case. The original Lion-el train boxes are even on dis-

play with the set on loan fromKeifer.The train layoutsalso in-clude some of the village townpieces too.

“It’s just a samplingofwhat Icall ‘boys toys’ lots of trains,”Beller said.

Beller has more than boystoys, there are plenty of “girlstoys” to go along with the carsmade of steel and airplanes inthe display cases.

“There are some of thosemetal cars and vehicles there,”she said, “and a variety of dollsfromover time includingaShir-ley Temple doll.”

The famous “Emmett KellyHobo” doll is among those dis-played. There’s a must-see dollhouse handcrafted from wood This red sea plane/bi-plane and Santa Claus poster highlights the

vintage toys on display the museum in Loveland. CHUCK GIBSON/FOR THE

“The ‘Barbie’ collec-tion is really the collect-ibles thatwere done alongwith the dolls,” Bellersaid. “These aren’t thedolls that youplayedwith.Most of the little figuresare samples of the cloth-ing theymade for the realdoll.”

MIAMI TWP. — Anagreement to help a Mi-ami Township aerospacemanufacturing companypay for the constructionof a sanitary sewer linewas recently approved by

MiamiTownshiptrustees.

Offi-cials fromAIM-MRO,who workextensive-ly withGeneralElectric

Aviation, bought the for-mer Hill Top Researchproperty on 6088 MainandMill streets recently.

They have started con-structing what will be atleast a $3.5-million re-search facility.

“One of the issueswe’vebeendealingwith isa lack of sanitary sewer,”said Larry Fronk, town-ship administrator.

There is a small treat-ment package plant forseweron theproperty, butit is “very, very old” anddoes not work properly,Fronk said.

It would cost an exten-sive amount of money toupgrade it andget itwork-ing properly, he said.

“It seems a shame forthem to put in that kind ofmoney (into it) when wehave a brand new sewagefacility half a mile downthe road,” Fronk said.

Trustees approved atax increment financingagreement to pay for theconstruction of a sewageline from the Wards Cor-ner Treatment Plant.

A tax increment fi-nancing agreement is aneconomic developmentmechanism that allowsfor increases in real es-tate taxes to be capturedandused to finance publicinfrastructure improve-ments.

The estimated cost ofthe sewer line is $320,000,Fronk said.

Clermont County offi-cials will manage the con-struction, which isplanned to start in 2014and finish by Christmas,he said.

Robert Wetick, a resi-dent who lives on ScarletMaple Court in the Or-chard Valley SubdivisioninMiamiTownship, calledthe agreement “unfair.”

“They’re picking andchoosing,” Wetick said.

“Why can they use tax-payer money to put (asewer line) into a privateenterprisewhen there areother county and town-ship projects that need tobe repaired?”

Wetick has sparredwith township and countyofficials in the past over acollapsed stormwaterpipeline on his property.

Township officialsclaimed any stormwaterproblems fell under coun-ty jurisdiction.

Meanwhile, county of-ficials said the subdivi-sion’s plat cleared themofany legal responsibility.

The issue has not beenresolved.

“I think we need to bevery judicious with howwe apply (tax incrementfinancing) and make surethere is some return onour investment and abroader purpose for thecommunity,” Fronk said.

“This is probably thefirst (tax increment fi-nancing agreement)we’vecreated in almost10years.”

In this case, the sewerline being constructedwill make it cheaper forsome residents to receivesanitary sewer services.

“The wider, broaderpublic purpose in con-structing this trunk line isit will also be available toserve — I don’t know thenumber of houses — butlaterals from three orfour streets in Miami-ville,” Fronk said.

“It will ultimately re-duce the assessmentthese homeowners willhave to pay to get sewer.”

Fronk recently metwith the superintendentand treasurer of the Mil-

ford Exempted VillageSchool District, which re-ceives a portion of theproperty’s taxes.

Both gave him “verypositive feedback” andsaid itwas the type of pro-ject tax increment financ-ing agreements were cre-ated for.

The current value ofthe property is $350,000,Fronk said.With the plansAIM-MRO has for its fa-cility, thatvalue should in-crease.

“(When improvementsare made) all governingbodies are going to makefar more tax money thanthey are making now,” hesaid.

This is the former site of Hill Top Research on the corner of Main and Mill streets inMiamiville. Construction crews are tearing down the old building to make way forAIM-MRO, an aerospace manufacturing company. County officials will soon beconstructing a sewer line to serve the company after township trustees approved a taxincrement financing agreement to pay for it.KEITH BIERYGOLICK/THE COMMUNITY PRESS

“We believe Philbrings the right combi-nation of expertise andleadership to continuethe on-time, on-strategyand within-budget per-formance of The Banksproject,” Christian Sig-man, Hamilton Countyadministrator, said in anews release.

Before leaving hisrole in April, Deatrickhad been worked for thecity and county as TheBanks project executivesince June 2008. HejoinedTheBanksprojectin June 2008 when it was

still in its planningphases. He had a$175,000 salary.

The project’s nextphase includesbuildinganine-story, mixed-usebuilding near theNation-alUndergroundRailroadFreedom Center. A fewmonths ago, officialsfrom The Banks saidconstruction could starton the project’s secondphase by the end of theyear, but now Construc-tion is expected to beginearly next year.

The Banks’ develop-ment team formally an-nounced the completionof project’s first phase inOctober. The first phaseof The Banks was com-pleted in October. That

$90 million phase had a$90 million price tag andthe project included a re-vised street grid, a park-ing structure, 300 apart-ments and 96,000 squarefeet of retail.

In 2007,Atlanta-basedprivate developers Car-ter&AssociatesLLCandthe Dawson Co., bothbased in Atlanta, werepicked in a joint ventureto lead the master devel-opment of The Banks.

“Philhasgreatexperi-ence that will help moveThe Banks forward,”said Scott Stringer, exec-utive vice president atAtlanta-based Carter &Associates LLC, the pro-ject developer.

Some residents in Indi-an Hill and in seven othercommunities soon maypay more and others lessfor new water serviceconnections.

They are customers ofthe Indian Hill WaterWorks, which is expectedby year’s end to generate$100,000 less in receiptsthan expected due to wetweather this summer, In-dian Hill Village Council-man Dan Feigelson said.

MayorMarkTullis saidthe charges take into ac-countOhio’s recent exten-

sion of the sales tax to ser-vices.

The charges also takeinto account the village’ssubsequent discoverythat the cost of water me-ters has increased forme-ters serving lots of lessthan one and a half acresandhasdecreased forme-ters serving lots of threeor more acres.

Here are the proposedminimumcharges forme-ters and service branchesto property lines com-pared to the currentcharges, which were setin 2008:

» $5,819 (currently$5,906) for properties of

less than one acre.» $8,103 (currently

$8,202) for properties ofone acre to less than threeacres.

» $14,014 (currently$13,499) for properties ofthree to less than fiveacres.

» $20,941 (currently$20,260) for properties offive or more acres.

If changes in thecharges are approved,customers who increasethe size of their existingmeters and servicebranches would pay feesequal to the difference incost between their pre-sent service size and theincreased service size.

The water works alsosupplies water to all resi-dents of Camp Dennisonand Terrace Park, abouthalf the residents of Ma-deira and some residentsof Columbia and Symmestownships, Milford andMontgomery.

More than 230 studentsfrom the Loveland In-termediate and Middle

schools literally stepped up tothe plate during a taste test atthe schools. The unique eventwas organized by family friend,and Loveland school parent,Cindy Reichman to raise fundsfor Ethan Kadish.

Kadish was struck by light-ningwhile helping some young-erchildrenatasummercampinJune. The bolt of lightningdropped him to the ground andcausedhisheart togo intocardi-ac arrest for a significant time.As a result, his brain was de-prived of adequate oxygen andblood flow causing a brain inju-ry.

“Today, funds raised fromour breakfast sandwich tastetest will go directly to HelpHope Live, the non-profit or-

ganization helping the Kadishfamily with uninsured accidentrelated expenses,” Reichmantold students participating inthe fundraiser tasting. She alsoread from a letter written byEthan’s parents expressingtheir gratitude and offering aspecial hug for all the kids par-ticipating and citing the powerof love in the Loveland commu-nity for helpingwith Ethan’s re-covery.

Kadish is undergoing exten-sive rehab in Cincinnati Chil-dren’s Hospital, but has yet tospeak or walk on his own.Whenhecomeshome, theKadishfam-ily will face numerous chal-lenges to aid in his continuedcare and recovery. Many ofthose expenses will not be cov-ered by insurance. MeghanLawson,LovelandIntermediateassistant principal, said Ethanand the Kadish family are partof the Tiger family at Lovelandschools.

“Our heart aches for Ethanand what happened to him overthe summer,” Lawson said. “Wewant to do whatever we can tosupport them during this diffi-cult time. We rally around ourfamily and we do whatever wecan to support each other.”

Inthiscasewhat thestudentsvolunteered to taste somebreakfast sandwiches. For eachstudent, a certain amount ofmoney was donated to the Kad-ish family. The taste test wassponsored by Advance PierreFoods – one of the food suppli-ers for Loveland schools. Rep-resentative Caryn Crawfordsays Advance Pierre Foodsdoes these kinds of tests be-cause theywantmake sure kidslike the food.Usually themoneygoes to the student.

“One of my teammates; herkids go to school here and actu-ally know Ethan,” Crawfordsaid. “When it came about wecoulddonate themoney forEth-

an, it seemed like a win-win. Alotof themknowEthanandreal-ly want to help. It’s a great wayto help.”

Ellie andKallie Eagan, Love-land Intermediate School stu-dents, joined in the taste test.The 10-year old twin girls wereamong the 230-plus studentswho volunteered to step up totheplateand taste thebreakfastsandwiches for Ethan. Why?

“I heard that Ethan wasteaching kids, and got struck bylightning and it made some-thing wrong with him; like real-ly bad,” Ellie said. “I knew itwould be good for everybody tohelp if they could. I wanted tohelp them out.”

Both twins agreed it wouldbe fun tasting the breakfastsandwiches,butCalliewas look-ing forward to something morethan a breakfast sandwich.

“I likehelpingpeople,”Calliesaid. “It said $15, and lots ofkidsalready came, so that’s going to

bea lotofmoney tohelpsupporthim and his family. I just want-ed to help out.”

Cindy Reichman says moreways to help are being planned.Donation jarsarebeingsetup inthe classrooms at the schoolsand, another taste test is sched-uled to happen at the middleschool Thursday, Oct. 17. TheLoveland Youth Baseball Or-ganization planned a home runderby Sunday, Oct. 13, with pro-ceeds tobenefit theKadishfam-ily. The school is selling “TeamEthan” T-shirts to raise moneyto help. Ethan loves baseballand is a member of the eighth-grade class at Loveland MiddleSchool.

“Team Ethan is a group ofvolunteers from Cincinnati, St.Louis, andLouisville gettingdo-nations and requests from allacross the country,” Reichmansaid. “If I can help somebodyhave a better day, I’ll do any-thing I can to help.

Last year this time, DannyJackson, a Loveland native,wasgoing into championship week-end of the ARCA Truck Series35 points behind the eventualchampionLeviMansfield. Jack-son finished just five points shyof the championship and wonthe final race of the year.

This year had a familiar feel-ing of going in as the underdogin the points race, but this timeonly 15 points behind leaderChad Poorman.

The series hosted the cham-pionship race at Lake CountySpeedway in Painesville, Ohio,near Cleveland. Jackson hadwon the last two series eventsand was coming into the week-end third in points. He had alsowon the Lake County Speedwayevent in July andhad set a trackrecord in qualifying. Mathe-matically, there was a goodchance thatJacksoncouldcomeout on top, but he had to be onthe top of his game.

Jacksonwas last togooutandqualify on the flat track andturned a time of 12:88 seconds,winninghis fifth pole of the sea-son and15th of his ARCATruckSeries career. Jackson rolled aseven during for the invertedstart of the LincolnWelders 125that following Sunday. With thepole, Jackson gained points onPoorman.

Later that evening, thetrucks were featured in two

heat races. Jackson finishedthird in his heat, just behindPoorman. Although Poormangained more points during theheat than Jackson, it still leftroom for Jackson depending onSunday’s outcome.

For Sunday’s 125 lap feature,Jacksonwasonthe insiderowinseventh position to start. Oncethegreenflagdropped, Jacksonwas determined to make hiswayto thefront.By lap23,Jack-son was in the second positionand had leader, T.J. Stineman in

his sights when the weatherforecast proved to be true. Thered flag dropped as a showercame through. Once the trackwas dried and the green flagdropped again, it was not longbefore Jacksonwas at the front.At lap 39, Jackson passed Stine-man and never looked back. Be-hind him, last year’s championLevi Mansfield and currentpoints leader Chad Poormanbattled back and forth, but nev-er caught up with Jackson. Thecheckered flag dropped and

Jackson had not only won threeconsecutive races in a row, butwas the overallARCATruckSe-ries 2013 Champion by 5 pointsover Poorman.

Jackson has been in the se-ries off andon since 2005, has15career wins and finally cap-tured his first series champion-ship.

Following the race, Jacksonsaid “I have to thank Doug Mil-ler; he builds the best engines inthe business. I also have tothank Bagman Racing Chassis

and Dan Eakins. I wrecked myother truckearlier thisyearandhe gave this truck to me so Icould finish the year becausewe don’t have a trailer full ofspare stuff. I can’t thank himenough. I have to thank KenKirsch Sr. (Mansfield’s owner)becauseIstarted theyear inoneof his trucks and that’s the one Iwrecked, it’s sitting in pieces inour shop being put back togeth-er. I want to thank my sisterBecky, CraigHaack andDennisDuval and my spotter JasonPowers, who kept me out oftrouble when I wasn’t gettinginto trouble myself. Hart’s Ma-chine service, my grandfather,mymomandmydadDaveJack-son who’s my crew chief andowner, he helps me every hourthat he can in the shop. He tellsme all the time we don’t haveenough to run for a champion-ship but we scratched one outtoday. I appreciate all of themfor everything they’ve done forme to get here today. I wouldalso like to thank my sponsors,Redbank Transport, Lykins OilCompanies, R&B Fabricationand Harts Machine. Withoutthem,wecan’t continue to cometo the track and put on a showfor the fans.”

“Most of the boys haveworked hard over the summerto hone their skills and be readyfor the season,” Orr said.

Mount Notre DameThe Cougars are looking to

better lastyear’s7-16mark(3-12in the old GGCL-Scarlet) undersecond-year coach Mollie Holt-man.

Among those back for MNDare juniors Sam Dunbar andEmily Webb who made all-league honorable mention assophomores. Also returning arestarting sophomores Kay Roth-ermund,AshleyFoulks,SabrinaDunbar and Rachel Tenley. Oli-via Kettler and Emma Bensonare also on the Cougars squad.

“I have to remindmyself thisis only their second year bowl-ing,”Meirose said. “They’ve as-sumed the leadership, butthere’s still a lot for them tolearn and improve. They’remaking very good progress.”

Ursuline also has a first-yearjunior (Kari Fletcher) and threefreshmen (Makayla Hufziger,Isabel Baumgartner andBritta-ny Leyda) out to fill the roster.“They’re all brandnewand theyall havekindof the sameskills,”Meirose said.

Like many coaches in thearea, he is concerned about thedecreasing numbers of girls inbowling.

“It’s kind of like that old ‘Ifyou build it, they will come’line,” he said. “Once we get thegirls out, we can teach them thegame and how to be good. It’sjust a matter of getting themout. I wish we could get themout. They’d see howmuch fun itcan be.”

LOVELAND — The lanes areoiled and matches are underwayforGreaterCincinnati highschool bowling teams. The fol-lowing is a rundown of teams inthe Loveland Herald coveragearea.

ished tied for first with GlenEste last season, but have atough road ahead after beingswept by the Trojans earlierthis month.

“I’ve actually known Dannysincehewas infifthgrade,may-be even younger,” Brannocksaid. “His older brother was onthe team. Danny’s always beenaround us.”

Jon Simms is Loveland’s oth-er senior at 171.

“He bowled as a sophomoreon the varsity team,” Brannocksaid. “Then, he went to wres-tling. Now. he’s come back tobowling. He’s grown up withDanny and Will. They’ve beenhanging out in bowling alleyssince they were little.”

Loveland’s girls are also inthemiddle of the pack after fin-ishing a close second to GlenEste last season. Coach BradWalker returns junior KassieNaughton, sophomore TaylarHayden and senior AshleyWheeler. Knaughton was ECCfirst team,withHaydenmakingsecond and Wheeler honorablemention.

andWheeler 153.“We’re strong, we’re just

young,” Walker said. “I’mteaching again so it’s kind of arebuilding year. Next year,we’re going to be very, verygood. I’m hoping to be back ontop of the division.”

OK, most of you are finallygetting it. Sixty percent nowdon’t trust President Obama.

You are out of work, it seemsthat good jobs are few, your401K is going up in smoke, andgroceries are skyrocketingwhile your few food stampshardly get you milk and bread.After five years of promises offree housing, free food, freecars, free oil, free insurance,free heating and air conditioning, youhave none of it.

Most of us are now wakingup. Only a few of us, govern-ment union workers and collegeprofessors, will go on believingthe socialist lie, and some localand national journalists fromthe Soros school of writing willcontinue to cover it up becauseto some socialism is a religionand others are just paid well towrite for the cause, even if theylive in Indian Hill, to keep the

under-informed under control.For those waking up there are good

solutions out there ready to go. Thereare people out there who are nowproven to be right, and they are stillwilling to lead us even though you havescorned them for five years becausethe socialists have made them targetsthat you hated, and that worked onlybecause they had the press on their sideand the press constantly bombardedyou with lies.

Only four out of 10 of you voted be-cause one side offered a weak candi-date and the other side snowed youwith a person we now no longer trust.

You have only one more chance, andyou better vote in 2014 to get control ofthe Senate from the new DemocratProgressive Party who is taking it allaway from you. And get better in-formed.

Look in the mirror and see whosefault it is. When good men do nothingbad men will take everything awayfrom you.

Calvin PauleyCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

Dec. 11 questionDo you think Ohio legislators should

approve a bill to allow back-to-schoolshoppers to buy certain items free ofstate and local sales taxes? Why or whynot?

“This is essentially a sales tax re-duction. If we really do not need to col-lect so much money from the sales taxwhy not just reduce the tax?

“This is political smoke andmirrorsdesigned to make the people sponsor-ing the bill look good at very little cost.It is a sham that will create a lot ofgame playing and fraud on the dayswhen there is no tax, politics at itsworst.”

F.S.D.

“No - why single out this particulargroup for tax-free status? And howwould you even determine what is aschool-related expense?

“WhatIwouldsupport: seasonal tax-freeshoppingweeks,suchasNewYorkCity offers - either a total moratoriumon all sales tax for that period or no taxon a specific item such as clothing,

cars, furniture, etc. This could be ahuge boost to the economy.”

J.S.B.

“Nowthat isnotabad idea.Teachersalready have sales tax exempt statusfor supplies,whynot studentsand fam-ilies for their learning materials?”

O.H.R.

“Since1965, theDepartment ofEdu-cation has proven that the federal gov-ernment needs to get out of the state’sway with regard to the education ofchildren. Ohio legislators are alsoguilty, and need to stand down.

“Legislators need to fix the roadsand balance the budget and quit wast-ing time on abortion and pandering toparents.”

K.P.

“Talk about complexity! How do weID someone who fits this descriptiononline or in the store?

“Then, consider the administrationof this at the store level; another thingfor the minimum hourly wage clerk tohandle.

“Then,what interestgroupwouldbenext in line for special consideration?

“We should be looking for ways tosimplify our tax systems and this pro-posal fails miserably. We have a widerange of prices available to shoppers,some of which will meet their budgetlimitations. A big ding to this idea.”

T.J.

“I would always think it is a goodidea togetsomethingtaxfree. Iamalsosure that there will be a bit of scam-ming going on ... oh well.”

More sidewalksneeded in Loveland

My name is Joey Bettinger, a BoyScout from Troop 617 in Loveland. Iwould like to suggest more sidewalks inthe area around the Cincinnati/Lovelandarea.

I am thinking that with more side-walks in our neighborhoods and streetswe could have more people safer andfeel safer to walk around, ride bikes inneighborhoods, etc ... This would be es-pecially true in neighborhoods such asmine. Inmyneighborhoodwe don’t haveany sidewalks, but we have many smallkids who love to ride their bikes, scoot-ers, and like to walk.

I think that if there were sidewalksthen the parents of these kidswould feelsafer letting the child do these things. Ialso believe that the kids themselveswould feel much safer. If we build moresidewalks I think that myself and manyothers would be happier and saferaround the Loveland area.

LETTERS TO THEEDITOR

Cincinnati remains the 10th poorestcity in the country, according to theU.S. Census Bureau.

Carla, a Cincinnati resident whoworks 10-hour days, six days a week,

while taking care ofeight great-nieces andnephews counts on theextra help she receivesfrom the FreestoreFoodbank to care forand put food on thetable for her family.

“It’s a great help. Itmeans a lot to me. Ithelps to stretch the restof the food. The Fre-estore Foodbank meanseverything to me. It’s

part of my survival,” she said.The holiday season is upon us, and

our city must continue supportingthose in need now and year-round. I amproud to live in Cincinnati and havemuch gratitude towards those organiza-tions that devote their time, energy, andlivelihood to help individuals and fam-ilies in our city, especially the Fre-estore Foodbank.

The poor and the struggling are ourneighbors, Carla is our neighbor. Peo-ple in our community must face theharsh reality of hunger and food scarci-ty daily. Even those that are fortunateenough to have jobs still struggle tomake ends meet as the cost of food andexpenses continue to increase.

My family, our teammembers, andour guests have grown up in this com-munity. To look at our neighborhoods –in our backyards, and see the strugglesfamilies have to face in order to makeends meet, is disconcerting. It is ourresponsibility to come together to helpthose in need. We as a community canwork as a team to fight hunger.

I regularly visit our 63 pizzerias,from our Boudinot Avenue location to

Price Hill to Anderson Township toForest Park, to meet with guests andteammembers, to listen to their storiesabout their families, their interests,their successes and sometimes, theirhardships. While many families whofrequent our pizzerias can afford a hotmeal, I have heard of challenging timeswhen putting food on the table was astruggle for them, their families orfriends.

During this holiday season, LaRosa’sis once again proud to support the Fre-estore Foodbank of Cincinnati to fighthunger right here in our own backyard,serving more than 300,000 people annu-ally in 20 counties across Ohio, Ken-tucky and Indiana.

The Freestore Foodbank is the Tris-tate’s largest foodbank distributingmore that 19 million meals annually.The organization provides emergencyfood assistance to more than 7,200 indi-viduals per month from its CustomerConnection Center in Over-the-Rhinealone.

Each of our pizzerias are sellingBuddy Cards (our two-for-one pizzadiscount card) for the benefit of theFreestore Foodbank. We will donate $5from the sale of every $10 Buddy Carddirectly to the Freestore Foodbank andthe nourishment and comfort theyprovide to those who truly need help inour community.

The holidays are a time of family,friends, traditions and gratitude.

When a loved one has a terminalillness, the season can also mean add-ed stress, fatigue, and financial bur-

dens. Most familieswould not want tospend the holidayseason in and out ofan emergency room,yet nearly one in fiveMedicare beneficia-ries is readmitted tothe hospital within 30days of release. Ac-cording to the NewEngland Journal ofMedicine, this trans-lates to $17.4 billion in

Medicare spending on patients whosereturn trips could have been avoided.

Avoidable hospital readmissionsamongMedicare beneficiaries hasbecome a top priority for both policy-makers and the Centers for MedicareandMedicaid Services as hospitalsfeel added pressure to help patientsremain at home. The CMS has takenon several initiatives to reduce read-missions from penalizing hospitalswith high readmission rates to imple-menting shared savings programs inan effort to increase care coordinationamong providers.

There are some return trips to thehospital that are unavoidable due tocomplications, new and unrelatedproblems, or anticipated steps of cer-tain treatment plans. Some patientsare also readmitted because they livein a region where hospitals are usedmore frequently as a place of care forillnesses.

Regardless of where patients re-side, education and support are keyfactors in preventing readmissions.Too often, a rushed discharged proc-

ess and a lack of necessary follow upcare leaves discharged patients un-able to follow instructions about a newdiagnoses or newmedication. TheAgency for Healthcare Research andQuality reported that while patientswith one or more chronic conditionsrepresent just five percent of thepatient population, they account formore than 50 percent of the healthcare costs.

Increasingly, hospitals are formingcollaborative partnerships with pallia-tive care and hospice providers tocombat avoidable readmissions. Forterminally ill patients, hospice is oneresource available to help patientsremain home for the holidays. Hos-pice and palliative care providerswork closely with patients and fam-ilies to identify care preferences,manage symptoms, and address clin-ical, emotional and spiritual needsthrough a team approach. This type ofcare allows patients to pick up thephone in a time of crisis and receivemedications at home. During the holi-days, families can spend more timecreating memories and sharing tradi-tions instead of making emergencyroom trips.

Integrating palliative care servicesearly, and making timely and appro-priate hospice referrals can not onlyimprove patient experiences, butaddress some of the most importantissues faced by hospitals today: qual-ity improvement, increasing coor-dination, preventing complications,reducing costs – and ultimately, re-turn trips to the hospital in a patient’sfinal stages of life when the comfortsof home and quality time with familyare most important.

Flags hung limp and thesky was gray, but veter-ans stood tall during cere-

monies honoring thematVeter-ansMemorial Park in LovelandMonday, Nov. 11.

This is the 19th year that St.Columban students honoredthe men and women who serveour countrywith ceremonies inLoveland. It’s also the eighthconsecutive year that LovelandMayor Rob Weisgerber wasfeatured as the speaker. Hetook the opportunity to tell thestudents about veterans wholive and work all around us.

Weisgerber delivered a mes-sage of thanks to veterans fortheir service and love of ourcountry.

“It doesn’t get old,”Weisger-ber said, about coming out tohonor our veterans. “It’s easy,after you’vedone it for a coupleyears, because it comes fromthe heart.”

Class officers from St. Co-lumbanSchoolgaveopeningre-marks, introduced the mayor,led everyone in the Pledge ofAllegiance, and led a prayer forall veterans. Following re-marks by Weisgerber, the stu-dentsplacedflowersat thebaseof each of the flags represent-ingall thedifferentbranchesof

service. They also placed awreath around the flagpole fly-ing the American flag.

After placing the wreath atthe base of the American flag,one student called upon the vet-erans to step forward and berecognized for their service.One by one, they humblystepped forward as he calledfor veterans from WWII, theKorean War, Viet Nam, GulfWar, Iraq, and Afghanistan.Herschell Campbell served inVietnam in 1966 and 67.

“Thismeansa lot,”Campbellsaid. “When we came home, Ihate tosay,wewere treated likecrap. I was in the Army.We ranup and down the Mekong Delta

in ‘66 and ’67.”Campbell wasn’t alone brav-

ing chilly temperatures tocome out for the ceremonies. Itwas like a family tree of mili-tary service with Ron, Mike,Robert Jr., and Robert BronnerSr. representing service fromWWII to Korea, Vietnam, andthe Gulf War. Korean War vet-eran Harry Walker and Iraqveteran Robert Bennett round-ed out the small group recog-nized during the ceremony.

“These guys, without askingfor thanks or recognition, putthemselves in harm’s way,”Weisgerber said. “To me, it’showIgive themthanksandrec-ognition forputting their life on

the line to protect my way oflife. That’s very personal tome.”

Expressions on their facesrevealed how personal it wasforeveryone in thecrowdwhileMoeller High School seniorScott Rumsey played taps.What is themessage for the stu-dents andothers in attendance?

“Thank a veteran,” Weisger-ber said. “They have put theirlives on the line. They have apassion for our country; theyhave a dedication to our coun-try. They support a militarysystem that protects ourwayoflife.Give themthanks fordoingthat, because it’s a thanklessjob.”

DECEMBER 18, 2013 • LOVELAND HERALD • B3LIFE

I wrestled with myselfabout sharing, onceagain, my latest clone ofWilliams-Sonoma pepper-mint bark. After all, myrecipe last year was ex-cellent, and the differ-ence this year is that Iused premium bar choco-lates only and tweaked

the recipea tiny bit.Well, I’vebeen get-ting lots ofrequestsfor thisspecialbark al-ready, soI’m takingcreativelicense and

sharing what I now callmy latest and greatest.And, I might add, myvery last recipe for thistreat!

However you cele-brate, I hope each of youhas the best holiday sea-son. Remember, the bestthings in life aren’t“things.”

Rita’s ultimate cloneof Williams-Sonomapeppermint bark2013

Use the best qualitychocolates and candy (noimitation peppermint inextract or candy) tomake it as close to Wil-liams-Sonoma as pos-sible. As mentioned, Iused the highest qualitybar chocolates, which Ichopped. Whether youuse bars or morsels, readlabels. The semi-sweetchocolate should be realchocolate, not chocolate-flavored.

The first two ingredi-ents in white chocolateshould be sugar and co-coa butter. No palm, palmkernel or coconut oil ifyou want it to be likeWilliams-Sonoma. Theseoils may be a culprit forlayers sometimes notbonding, resulting inseparation.

That doesn’t mean youcan’t make wonderfulbark with whatever choc-olate fits your budget. Ialso have more barkrecipes on my blog, asingle-layer one for kidsand a three-layer one.

Prep pan:Line a cookie sheet

with one piece of foil,about 10 inches by 12inches. Or do the same ina 9-inch by 13-inch pan.

First layer:

2 cups (12 oz.) semi-sweetchocolate, divided into 11⁄4and 3⁄4 cupmeasures

1 teaspoon peppermintextract

Use a double boiler ifyou have one, or put 11⁄4cups chocolate in heat-proof bowl. Set oversaucepan that has 1 inchof steaming water, mak-ing sure bowl does nottouch water. (This is amakeshift double boiler).Heat should be turned tolow so no steam/waterescapes into chocolate,which can turn it grainy.Stir until chocolate isalmost melted but stillhas a few lumps, thenremove bowl and stir inremaining chocolate untilsmooth. Stir in extractand pour onto foil,spreading evenly. Let setat room temperature orin refrigerator until hard.

Second layer:

23⁄4 cups white chocolate,divided into 21⁄4 and 1⁄2 cupmeasures

1⁄2 teaspoon peppermintextract

1⁄4 to 1⁄3 cup crushedpeppermint candy, sievedto remove tiny particles

Put 21⁄4 cups whitechocolate in clean bowland repeat process formelting, stirring in re-maining chocolate afterremoving bowl. Stir inextract. Let cool a bit.Pour over chocolate lay-er and spread.

Finishing with candy:Sprinkle candy and

gently press into choco-late. Let set at room tem-perature or in refriger-ator until hard. Peel barkoff foil and break or cutinto pieces. If it’s been inthe refrigerator, let it sitout a bit so it’s easy tobreak or cut. Store inrefrigerator.

EVERYONE GETS


A lot of us have lifeinsurance policies, butmay not be aware of allthe provisions in thepolicy. One area womansaid not knowing about aprovision in her hus-band’s policy has cost her

a lot ofmoney.

KathyThompsonof Bridge-town saidshe’s upsetwith thelife insur-ance com-pany andherself fornot realiz-

ing a key money-savingprovision was in the pol-icy. Thompson said of herhusband, “He becamedisabled about two and ahalf years ago and whothinks of looking at yourinsurance policy. Recent-ly, the insurance compa-ny called and they want-ed to sell us more insur-ance.”

The life insurancepolicy is a small one, just$9,000, and is one of sev-eral her husband bought.What she didn’t remem-ber, until the agent re-minded her, was the pol-icy contains a disability

waiver. she said theagent told her, “You havea disclaimer on yourpolicy where if he’s dis-abled we’ll pay his premi-ums. I said, ‘Really?’”

Thompson said theproblem was, even afterexamining that policy,the waiver wasn’t veryclear. “There’s differentcolumns and they’ve gotsuicide exclusions.They’ve got all thesetitles over here butthere’s nothing aboutdisability. You have toreally, really look for it,”she said.

The Thompsons paymore than $14 each yearfor the disability waiver.But, I noticed even on thepolicy itself it just saiddisability waiver. As aresult, Thompson haspaid the yearly premiumfor more than two yearssince her husband be-came disabled. The insur-ance agent told her, un-fortunately, she can onlyget back the premium forone of those years.

Thompson then calledthe insurance companyitself and spoke with amanager who told hercompany policy is toreimburse for only oneyear. “She said, ‘There

are people that have hada policy with us for 30years and have beendisabled and they havethat waiver and theydon’t know about it. Westill only give them backone year.’” Thompsonsaid she thinks that’s aterrible policy and wantsto alert others.

The disability waiveris not automatic in mostlife insurance policies,it’s a separate provisionyou can buy. So, you maywant to check to see ifyou have that waiver inyour policy.

Thompson said shelearned a valuable lessonto get a copy of that pro-vision in writing. Notonly will it help you re-member you have thatprotection, but it will alsoexplain exactly what’srequired before the in-surance company consid-ers someone to be dis-abled so the disabilitywaiver will apply.
