A native of Pikeville, Ky., he said he and three of his friends decided the U.S. Navy was the best ticket out of their mountain town, so they went to the Navy recruiting office after gradua- tion. Newsom’s three buddies suc- cessfully enlisted, but he said the Navy turned him away because he had poor vision in his left eye. He’s lucky his eye failed him. His three friends were as- signed to the USS Arizona, and all three were killed when the Japa- nese attacked Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941.

Several times during the 10 years he’s served as a minister, he said he dreamed of one day planting a church. “In my heart I felt God told me I would plant a church,” Staton said. “About a year and a half ago the dream came back up. God gave me permis- sion to pursue my dream.” This summer Staton brought the dream to fruition when he, with support from the North American Mission Board and other churches, es- tablished the Velocity Church in Green Township.

Thechurch’s threecorevalues are family, free-dom and fun, Staton said.

“Too often when you

think of church, you don’tthink of fun,” he said. “It’sOK to have fun. Jesuscame to us to give us anabundant life, and part ofthat is laughing togetherand encouraging one an-other.”

He said the church of-fers a contemporary,“come as you are” servicethat is open to everyoneand anyone.

The church is hosting a

preview service at 10:30a.m. Sunday, Sept. 23.

Staton said VelocityChurch will celebrate itsofficial launch with a ser-vice at 10:30 a.m. Sunday,Oct. 7. The church willthen offer a weekly Sun-day service at 10:30 a.m.from that point on.

eye chart?’“I told him I memorized

it.He lookedatmeandsaid,‘You only need one eye toshoot with anyway,’ and heput me through,” Newsom

said.

Shipping outNewsom’s first assign-

ment in the Army was atFort Thomas in NorthernKentucky, he said.

“I was stationed at FortThomas for 16 months,” hesaid. “That’s where I metmy wife, Marie. She livedin Cheviot at the time.”

Upon completing his as-signment at Fort Thomas,he said he thenmoved on toFort Knox, from where hisunit then shipped overseasto Manchester, England.

Newsom said he servedin a seven-man civil affairsgroup, which was attachedto the Army’s 4th ArmoredDivision.

He said there weren’tenough military barracksfor all the servicemen whowere training in Englandfor the Normandy, so hewas assigned to stay withan English family.

“I still write to the fam-ily I stayed with overthere,” he said.

D-Day“We landed at Omaha

Beach,” Newsom said.“That’s where the mainbunch went in.”

More than 5,000 shipsand 13,000 aircraft sup-ported the D-Day invasion.By the end of the brutal op-eration on June 6, 1944,more than 9,000 Alliedtroops had been killed orwounded,but theAllieshadgained a foothold in Nor-mandy.

Newsomsaidhewasfor-tunatehisunitwas inoneofthe laterwaves tostormthebeach.

“The first groups werealready four miles inlandwhen I jumped off theboat,” he said.

Hiscivil affairsunitwastasked with following thefront lines as they madetheir way through Franceand Germany, helping peo-ple in the liberated townsre-establish their govern-ments and get the townsback to order, he said.

Close calls

Newsom said one of hisbiggest duties was drivingthe commanding officeraround.

“We had some times,meand him,” he said.

“Hecouldn’t readamap.We were almost capturedthreeor four timesbecausewe drove down the wrongroads.”

He said they were alsoshot at twice. Both timesthe bullets zipped pastNewsom’s arm and lodgedin the seat of his Jeep.

“Right pastmy arm,” hesaid.

In a small French towncalled St. Mihiel, he said henoticed a train car on thenearby railroad track wason fire. It turned out thebox car belonged to theGermans and it was full ofammunition.

Newsom organized agroup of men from thetown to push it outside thevillage limits before it ex-ploded.

“The fire burned itselfout,” he said. “It never didexplode, which was a goodthing.”

He said his unit was set-ting up an office headquar-ters in another Frenchtown one afternoon, and alive shell came hurlingthrough the roof.

The shell did not ex-

plode, so Newsompicked itup – while it was still hot –and carried it outside andlaid it gently in a field.

“I received a medal forthat,” he said.

Themedal is the BronzeStar, the military’s fourth-highest award for bravery,heroism or meritoriousservice.

Newsom was alsoawardedtheFrenchLegionof Honor, which is the thehighestmilitaryaward thatcan be given to a service-man who is not a memberof the French Republic.

“I didn’t even know I’dbeen recommended for it,”he said.

Saving Jewishcaptives

Newsomsaidhisunit re-ceived orders to investi-gate a camp outside Wei-mar, Germany.

When they arrived, hesaid they discovered it wasthe Buchenwald concen-tration camp.

“I was the first soldierthrough the gates,” he said.

“It was terrible.”Emaciated men and

boys stood naked, and hesaid the crematory wasstill warm.

“I cried,” Newsom said.“One man came toward

me, with his arms open asthough he wanted to hugme,andhefell deadright in

front of me from starva-tion.”

Shortly after liberatingthe concentration camp, hesaid his unitwasmaking itsway to another town whenan elderly woman stoppedthem.

Newsom said she toldthem about a cave in theforest where a group ofJewish children were hid-ing.

“She showed us wheretogo,” he said. “Therewere13 kids hiding in that cave.A few of them were no old-er than 4 or 5.”

He said he and a coupleof the teenagers who werein the cave made threetrips to carry all the chil-dren to safety.

Later in his life, New-som was honored by theU.S. Holocaust MemorialCouncil for his efforts inthe war.

Proud to serveButch Newsom served

in the Army for 44 months,22 months of which wereserved overseas.

He started as a privateandadvanced to the rankofcorporal before he washonorably discharged.

“We went through somerough times, but we helpeda lot of people,” he said.

“That’s what we’reproud of. It makes you feelgood.”

St. Simon Church in Del-hi Township and St. Aloysi-us-on-the-Ohio Church inSayler Park are joiningforces, or at least sharing a

priest.The Rev. Richard Dress-

man, pastor at St. Aloysius,was approached by theArchdiocese of Cincinnatilast year and asked to serveas a temporary administra-toratSt.Simonwhile itspas-

tor, the late Rev. MichaelBeatty, was in the hospitaland unable to carry out hisduties at the church.

Beatty died Dec. 14. Af-ter Beatty’s death, Dress-man continued to serve St.Simon’s parishioners andwas named pastor of thechurch, July 1.

Dressman is now incharge of both churches as

part of apastoral re-gion initia-tive estab-lishedbythearchdio-cese.

“This isan initiativewe started

several years ago to dealwith a relative shortage ofpriests.Theideaistopairto-gether geographically closeparishes that could beserved by one priest,” saidDan Andriacco, communi-cations director for thearchdiocese.

Andriaccoexplainedthatthearchdiocesewasdividedinto about 100 pastoral re-gions as away to combat thepriest and people shortage.

“Inmanycases, thenum-ber of parishioners is dwin-dling,” Andriacco said.

Dressman said that, inmost cases, pastors have acouple years to transitioninto their pastoral region,

but becausetherewasnopriest at St.Simon, itsped up theprocess.

“I knowfor some it’sdifficult toaccept that

change. I’m sure we’ll runinto challenges but we wantto make sure everyone iscomfortable,” Dressmansaid.

Dressman said hehas re-ceived help from retiredpriest Rev. Phil Seher, whocelebrates Masses on theweekends at both churches.

“The blessing about be-ing a retired priest is thatyou can help,” Seher said. “Ienjoy doing what I’m doingand I have the advantage ofbeing consistent. One weekI’mat St. Al’s, the nextweekI’m at St. Simon.”

Dressman said it helpsthat the churches are close.

“It takes some of the

pressure off,” he said. “Ittakes a little bit of stretch totake care of both parishes,but my experience so farhasbeengood.ThepeopleatSt.Simonhavebeenveryac-cepting and St. Aloysius hasbeen understanding.”

Dressmanspendstimeatboth parishes each day.

“We celebrate weekdayMasses at St. Simon and be-cause St. Aloysius has aschool, we have a schoolMass on Wednesdays. It’s afairly comfortable fit,”Dressman said.

He said the need forpriests is great.

“We’ve just not had thenumber of young men be-coming priests. It’s some-thing we need to consider,”Dressman said. “If theywant their churches to sur-vive, it’s something theyreally need to think about.There are those that havethe calling that need to bewilling to respond.”

Donald Minus bought athree-story fixer-uppernext door to his Detroithome for a song to accom-modate his growing family,which standsat14 relatives– and one on the way – un-der one roof.

The 40-year-old manopened his home to a blinduncle, a bedridden grand-mother, his pregnant sisterand her 10 daughters (her11th child is a girl, too!). Hebought the abandonedhome to give his sister andher girls some breathingroom and keep the wholefamily close.

Finding out about theirsituation from Central De-troit Christian and thePresbytery of Detroit,Northwest CommunityChurch in Colerain Town-ship sent 14 of its youngfaithful to Detroit June 24-30 as part of the church’sMissionary ApprenticeProgram (MAP). Theirgoal: To pay his kindnessforward and help make thehouse livable for his ex-panding crew.

While Minus spent theweek expressing repeatedgratitude as he workedalongside the youth groupto clear out bad tile, walls,waist-highweeds andotherdebris, the Cincinnati con-tingent couldn’t help butsing their own praises for aman they came to respectfor his humility, compas-sion and work ethic.

“Every trip we meetsomeone that blows usaway.Thisyear thatpersonwasDonald, themanwhosehouse wewere working on.He’s an amazing person,”

said James McDonough ofColerain Township.

The group also spenttwo days with Cass Com-munity Social Services.They made 1,010 sand-wichesand20pizzasfor thearea’s needy and per-

formed miscellaneouscleanup work, such as or-ganizingandpainting in thewater-damaged Cass Unit-ed Methodist Church nar-thex. They slept atDraytonAvenue PresbyterianChurch, showering at a lo-

cal YMCA.“Calling the deeds we

have done on this trip ‘vol-unteer work’ is an actionthat would be deemedfalse,” said Joel McGrin-der of Colerain Township.“The countless smiles we

received from the commu-nities we assisted were thegreatest payment I couldask for.”

It wasn’t all work and noplay for the crew. They en-joyed fireworks, SterlingStateParkonLakeErieandthe Henry Ford Museum.On the trip, a group of mu-sically inclined people –McDonough, Corey Hud-son of Green Township, Ju-lia Denny of Green Town-ship, Tyler Waldie of Clif-ton, Brendan McDonoughof Colerain Township andJake Laughman of Fair-field – wrote and per-formed a song, “Just GiveMe a Few Days” – theyhope to share with theirhome church soon.

Other attendees includ-ed Paul Andree of GreenTownship, Josh Denny ofColerainTownship, Saman-tha Greco of ColerainTownship, Kyle Hudson ofGreen Township, Lori

McDonough of ColerainTownship, Darren Woo-dard of Northside and Vic-tor Zeinner of White Oak.

Lori McDonough, theNorthwest CommunityChurch director of music,saidshekeeps in touchwithMinus via text messages tofind out how his home pro-gresses since there’s stillmuchwork to do. She plansto send him a card lettinghim know he’s still in theirthoughts.

Clermont will be led by twoseniors this year. Middle hitterRachel Hays (Amelia HighSchool), a First-Team All-Ameri-can and First-Team All-Confer-ence selection, joins defensivespecialist Rachel Ferguson (Nor-wood) to help the newcomerslearn the ropes.

Also returning are junior set-ter Becca Walton (Mercy) – Sec-ond-Team All-Conference, juniorright-side hitter Haley Weber(Mariemont), sophomore defen-sive specialist Courtney Maier(Newport Central Catholic) andsophomore outside hitterKaitlyn

Missing teeth? Mini DentalImplants; a lower cost option

ADVERTISEMENT

Do you have a missing tooth orteeth? After your dentist told you toreplace the tooth/teeth with either anuncomfortable partial, a bridge thatwould grind down your healthy teethor an expensive traditional implantwere you left feeling frustrated?A newer excellent alternative is theMini Dental Implant, or MDI. Theprocedure, which is offered by Dr.Christopher Omeltschenko, can beused to replace a single missing toothor an entire row of teeth.“The advantages of a single MDI over traditional options are numerous,” says Dr.Omeltschenko. “At 1.8 millimeters in diameter they can be placed withoutsurgically opening the gums, so recovery is quick and most patients don’t even needpain medicine.”He adds, “MDIs are not connected to adjacent teeth so common problems, such asdifficulty cleaning between teeth and food entrapments are eliminated. And atabout the same price as a partial and about half the price of a bridge or traditionalimplant, they are extremely affordable as well.”MDIs are functional on the same day theyare put in, enabling patients who have aMDI placed in the morning to enjoy eatinglunch without difficulty in the afternoon.Call (513) 245-2200 today for your free,no-obligation consultation (a $150 value).Dr. Omeltschenko will work with you andyour existing dentist to give you whatyou’ve always wanted, a beautiful,confident smile.

HYDE PARK — If theSummit Country Day fieldhockey squad flies underthe radar, that will be OKby head coach Jen Willisand the rest of the SilverKnights.

Summitboatsayouthfulsquad that will use the reg-ular season to fine-tune itsskill with the hopes of put-ting everything togetherlater in the fall.

“We’re trying to get bet-ter andbetter andwe’rego-ing to try to see if we canknocka teamor twooff. It’sfun to go in as theunderdogand see what we can makehappen,” Willis said.

On the attack, the SilverKnights should possess alot of depth,with the returnof Liz Nourse of AndersonTownship, Carrie Melsonof Blue Ash, ChristinaMoneta of Anderson Town-ship and senior AlyssaHussong of Delhi Town-ship.

Willis has been im-pressed with how the of-fensehas lookedduring thepreseason.

“I think those attackersare coming into their own

and getting a nose for thegoal,” Willis said. “All ofthose girlswill be playing alot of minutes on the frontline, looking to get somegoals in…”

At midfield, Maria andKatie will be charged withadvancing theball to the at-tack line.

Willis said both playerstrained throughout thespring and have started todeveloparealknackfor thegame.

“They’re going to bereally important playersthis year…(Midfield) is go-ingtobean importantplacefor us. To get counter at-

tack going,” Willis said.The duo, along with ju-

nior Rebecca Stromberg ofColumbia Township, willcaptain the squad this sea-son.

Stromberg will play de-fense and serve as a fieldgeneral operating out ofthe backfield. She’ll alsotake free hits, which willset the pace and directionof matches, according toWillis.

Strombergwill alsoplaya critical role in the de-fenseof thegoal,whichwillbe manned by sophomoreCaroline Currie of Cheviot.

Currie is another playerwho’s dedicated herself to

the sport through offsea-son training, according toWillis.

“She’s a really good ath-lete and one of the most fitplayers on the team,”Willissaid. “She improves everysingle day, which is so funto watch and work with.She’s coming into her ownas a leader, which is impor-tant for us.”

Deficit talkOne of President Obama’s

campaign aides shows Obamasaying that Americans have achoice in November; do it Rom-ney’s way and add trillions to thedeficit or do it Obama’s way andcut the deficit by $4 trillion.

Obama’swaygrowsthedeficitfrom $16 trillion to $24 trillion.The $4 trillion in reductions arenothing more than a promise tocut future spending. These so-called cutswould keep the deficitfromgrowing to $28 trillion.OnlyObama could get away with in-creasing the deficit by $8 trillionand calling it a $4 trillion dollarreduction.

Ourdeficit is likeafamilyhav-ing an income of $50,000, debt of$500,000 and the debt growing at$1,050 per month.

Obama tells us the solution isto tax the rich. The Bush tax cutswould only generate $80 billion.At our current rate of spending,that covers 16 days of deficitspending. The only solution is tolive within our resources. Thatmeans hard decisions must bemade today.

Think about this; not even theDemocrat-controlled Senatecould passed one ofObama’s bud-gets in the last four years. Wemust stop this insanity, ourgrandchildren deserve better.

Al OstendorfCheviot

Be carefulAnn Thompson (Aug. 29 let-

ter) explains why she believesSherrodBrowndeserves anotherSenate term, citing his effortssuch as working to expand themiddle class and fighting “GOPefforts to roll back women’shealth benefits and paycheckfairness.”

President Obama has statedthat this election is about two dif-fering viewpoints. And he is cor-rect. It isaboutAmericastayingacapitalistnationasawayof lifeorachieving the President’s agendaof socialism.

Concerning paycheck fair-ness, in a 2011 annual report sub-mitted to Congress the medianfemale employee salary was$11,000 less than themedianmaleemployee salary. This report wasin regards to President Obama’sWhite House staff salaries.

Concerning the rollback ofwomen’s health benefits, thereare no specifics stated. But thereis nothing more hazardous to awomen’s health benefits than tohave her health destroyed, be-fore she even has a chance torealize the benefits, through theabortionprocess. Somuch for theconstitutional right to life.

Socialismhasneverworked inany country where attemptedand actually destroys the middleclass. Sherrod Brown has votedmore than 90 percent of the timewith President Obama includingadvocating abortion. Be carefulwhen voting because you justmight get what you voted for.

The dust has settled on the11th annual Westfest and thefest’s host; Cheviot WestwoodCommunity Association(CWCA), board members havehad a chance to review thefuture of the event.

This year brought out a goodcrowd in spite of the hot weath-er. This annual event has al-ways promoted itself as a fam-ily event. With beer sales downand soft drinks and rides salesup the focus on family mightjust be taking hold. The lure ofgreat local food and a mix ofmusic attracts a variety oldfriends and neighbors. And,what’s a party without livemusic? All the participatingbands donate their time andprovide great entertainment.

This event does not takeplace without the support fromour major sponsors; thanks toLocal 12, Cincinnatus Savings

and Loan,Fogerty’s Pub,Budweiserand City Bar-beque. Thesuccess alsocomes be-cause of thevolunteers – abig thanks toall those whostepped for-

ward.For over a year the CWCA

has been prompting the dis-cussion of expanding Westfestto three days. We have solicitedopinion from businesses andresidents. On one hand thethought of raising more fundsto give back to our area is en-ticing. But we also had to con-sider the inconvenience to theneighbors and the disruption tothe businesses that are directlyaffected. These considerations

along with the question of ex-panding volunteer hoursbrought us to the conclusionthat now is not the time to go toa three-day fest. We thankeveryone for their input. It isthis type of input that keeps usaware of what is needed for ahealthy community.

Our next meeting is Sept. 19at 6 p.m. at the Blacksheep/Public House. As a businessowner I think it’s important tostay abreast of what’s happen-ing in the community – theCWCAmeetings offer thatinformation. We hope to seeyou there! For information onjoining the CWCA contact meat [email protected].

Lynn Jansen, who grew upon Alcliff Lane and then Can-dlelight Terrace with her fourbrothers and four sisters, is amodern day Anne Sullivan.

Lynn, who was born withUsher Syndrome, a conditionthat has caused her to be bothhard of hearing and visuallyimpaired, has graduated fromSeton High School in 1970, hasmarried and has three grownchildren, has a degree in ac-counting fromMount St. Jo-seph achieved in 2000, and hasheld a number of jobs over herlifetime. However, her currentjob of assisting people who aredeaf blind to communicate andconnect with a sometimesseemingly harsh and indiffer-ent world is perhaps her mostchallenging and rewarding jobyet.

As the vice president of theAmerican Association of theDeaf Blind and as a strongadvocate in many roles forpeople who are deaf blind,Lynn works wonders in ob-taining communication facilita-tors and service support pro-viders to work with people whocan neither see nor hear.

While some individuals aretotally deaf and blind, as in thefamous case of Helen Keller,most people who are consid-ered deaf blind have somehearing and some sight. Theytypically use such aids asclosed circuit televisions

(CCTVs) toenhance theirreading ofprint or assist-ed listeningdevices(ALDs) to heara speaker in alarge room aswhen attend-ing confer-ences or

church services.Lynn says enthusiastically

that she loves using her iPadfor quick access to informa-tion. Lynn is hard of hearing,and she has a form of retinitispigmentosa that makes varia-tions in light problematic. Forexample, besides magnifyingprint, her CCTV and iPad pre-sents information white onblack because that contrast ismuch easier for her to readprinted material.

Lynn is a leader and an ad-vocate with a mission. Shespeaks out forcefully, passion-ately and cogently on behalf ofpeople who are deaf blind. Notsurprisingly, what people whoare deaf blind need are un-derstanding, acceptance andinclusion. Do those qualitiessound like what you want fromothers?

Besides many new deviceslike deaf blind communicators(DBCs), a specialized cellphone attached to a keyboard,that allows people who are

totally deaf and blind to com-municate face to face withothers like with clerks in storesfor example; sometimes, living,breathing, thinking, and caringpeople are needed to assistwith communication and con-nection. Such people may becommunication facilitators orservice support providers.Would you like to learn moreabout deaf blind people andhow you can be a modern dayAnne Sullivan, that is, someonewho brings people who are deafblind in closer contact with therest of us for the untold benefitof all of us?

People with all degrees ofdeaf blindness can achieveindependence, employment,satisfactory relationships, andcan teach the rest of us morethan we would otherwise knowas in the same mode, if not thesame degree, as Helen Keller,who turned from a frustratedand isolated child into a writerand teacher known throughoutthe world and throughout gen-erations. Lynn generously saysthat you may contact her at thee-mail address of [email protected] for more in-formation.

Helping another with intelli-gence and compassion is thebest any of us can be. Whatgreater joy can we have!

Yesterday I took dinnerto a friend who was ill. Iwanted to bring a dessert

for thefamilyalong withthe mealbut didn’thave a lotof time, so Idecided tomake ba-nana pud-ding. Nowusually Imake the

pudding from scratch, likea pastry cream, but thatwasn’t going to happenyesterday. So I carried inmy no-bake version and itwas a huge hit. Here’s therecipe for you to try.

Mom’s no-cook bestbanana puddin’

The “mom” in the titleis me. This heirloom reci-pe is an easy dessert thatthe little ones can helpwith and it tastes so good.You can double this recipefor a 9-inch by 13-inch pan.If you double the recipe,use the larger box (5 oz. orso) of pudding. I put minein a smaller casseroledish.

4 oz. cream cheese, softened½ cup sweetenedcondensedmilk (This ishalf of the 14 oz. can.Freeze the leftover milk.)

3.5 oz. package instantvanilla pudding

1½ cups milk1 tablespoon

vanilla2 cups whipping cream,sweetened to taste*,whipped and divided, or16 oz. whipped topping,thawed and divided

3 ripe bananas, slicedAbout half a box of vanillawafers

Put cream cheese andcondensed milk in mixerand blend well. Whiskpudding mix into milk andvanilla, and blend untilsmooth. Add to creamcheese mixture. Blendwell and fold in half thewhipped cream orwhipped topping. Save theother half for garnish.

Make layers in casse-role dish:

Vanilla wafers, bananasand the pudding mixtureon top. Refrigerate at least1 hour before serving orup to 8 hours. Garnishwith whipped cream andmore wafers.

*To sweeten whippingcream: Stir in 1/4 cuppowdered sugar or moreto taste before whipping.

Tip from Rita’skitchen

Sprinkle cocoa powderor shaved chocolate ontop.

Stir in a couple hand-fuls of coconut into thepudding.

Make individual pud-dings in wine glasses.

Rita’s freezer pesto

Basil is in season rightnow. Make your own pestoand you’ll be happy youdid. This makes a niceamount and is better thananything you can buy. Plusless expensive in the longrun. A great topping forpizza, pastas, soups,breads. Fabulous dollopedon polenta that you’vecooked with a bit of garlic

and Romano cheese. Pestois good on just about any-thing! Go to taste on gar-lic. Some people like toleave the cheese out andjust stir it in when thawingout for a brighter flavor.

1 to 1½ teaspoons garlic,minced

¼ cup pine nuts, toasted ifdesired

½ stick unsalted butter½ cup parsley leaves

4 cups basil leaves, packed1½ cups Parmesan cheese orto taste

½ to¾ cup extra virgin oliveoil

With food processor’smotor running, add garlicand nuts. Add everythingelse and process untilsmooth. Stays fresh inrefrigerator about a week.To freeze, either fill icecube tray sections orfreeze in plastic bags,laying them flat on top ofeach other.

Vegetarian blackbeans and rice(hopefully likeSkyline’s)

For the fellow who

loves Skyline’s vegetarianblack beans and rice. Ihope he likes this. I mighttoss in a shake or two ofchili powder too.

1 cup rice2 cans black beans, rinsedand drained

1medium to large onion,diced

2 large cloves garlic, minced½ to 1 teaspoon cumin½ teaspoon oregano or totaste

Salt to tasteCayenne pepper to taste orchopped jalapeño to taste

Optional garnishes: cilantro,chopped tomato, limejuice, cheese

Cook rice according topackage directions. Whilerice is cooking, sauté on-ion and garlic in a bit ofolive oil. Add beans, cuminand oregano. Cook untilheated through. Add saltand pepper to taste. Mixwith rice. Garnish as de-sired.

like a recipe for chickenhash and gravy to make athome.

NickandTom’sstartedout as the Alpine Inn –named after the previousestablishment which waslast a wedding receptionhall, with deeper rootsthan that from the early1900s. The name wasswitched to Nick andTom’s Alpine Inn afteropening, hoping to help

educate the area that thebusiness was no longer areception hall, but a res-taurant and bar. Fiveyears later the name waschanged to Nick andTom’s Restaurant andBar to furtherdistinguishit.

“We wouldn’t changethe location for anything,said owner Tom Lambri-nides. “Wehavegreat loy-al, local, regular custom-ers. We have some of thebest customers a restau-rant could have. If we doourpart by offeringgood,consistent food and qual-ity service they are there.It took a long to getwherewe are today, but wewouldn’t change it for theworld.”

Nick and Tom’sstrives, for quality pur-poses, to make almost ev-erything in house. All oftheir soups, chilis, dress-ings and recipes havebeen createdwithin.Nickand Tom’s has createdquite the name and fol-lowing from their soupsand chilis.

The Cincinnati Catho-lic Cemetery Society hasinstalled a columbariumat St. Joseph and at St.Mary Cemetery in St.Bernard to allow for newcremation choices.

Today, more than 42percent of deaths inAmerica are followed bycremation. However, thequestion of what to dowith cremated remainsoften goes unanswered.The Cincinnati CatholicCemetery Society has re-spondedwithnewoptionsfor creating a peaceful fi-nal resting place.

There are several op-

tions for interring cre-mated remains. Remainscan be kept in an urn thatis placed in a niche whichis part of a structureknown as a columbarium.Columbaria are oftenfree-standing outdoorstructures, but they arealso sometimes locatedinside mausoleums.

Cremation urns can beinterred with casketedremains inside crypts orthe urns can be buried in-ground, in vaults special-ly designed for this pur-pose.

Families can choose topurchase a single nicheor create a legacy with afamily memorial withinthese new columbaria.

shouldn’t happen.’”But Schweitzer says

she had even more prob-lems and returned to thecell phone store two moretimes in the first 12 daysshe had the phone. “Theysaid, ‘This is the way theandroid phones work.’Well, the other twophones I purchased didnot.” She told that to thecell phone employee buthe would not take thephone back.

A few weeks later,when she was back at thestore for another reason,Schweitzer again inquiredabout getting a new phoneto replace the one withwhich she’s continued tohave problems. This timeshe was told the 14-dayreturn policy had expired.

In the meantime,Schweitzer continued tohave billing problems.

With new, improvedcell phones coming outeach year it’s no wondernearly 500 million phoneswere sold worldwide lastyear alone. But beforeyou buy a new wirelessphone you need to knowyour rights, just in casesomething goes wrong.

Cathy Schweitzer ofAlexandria bought threenew phones for herselfand family earlier thisyear. She quickly noticedthere was a problem withthe phone she bought forherself – it would take toolong to turn on.

Schweitzer says, “Itook it back on April 2 andthey said the problem wasthe way I was holding thephone. That I was press-ing these two buttons, thevolume and the on-off atthe same time. ‘Don’t dothat,’ they said, ‘and that

Her billshows thecompanytried tocorrect itby givingher a cred-it, but thesamechargesalso ap-peared on

the new bills.At one point, she says,

a supervisor tried to fixthe billing issues but shesays he made it worse.Schweitzer says, “Heincreased the data plansfrom $19.99 to $24.99, sonow I’m overcharged onthose. I’m still not gettingthe credit, I’m still beingcharged for the promo-tional officers – and thephone still doesn’t work.”

I contacted the cellphone company and the

charges on her bill werecorrected. In addition,she’s now getting a newcell phone free of charge.That’s something she saysshe had been trying to dofor months.

The big thing to re-member when buying anew cell phone is to takeit back to the store imme-diately if there’s a prob-lem. You usually onlyhave a limited time, inthis case just 14 days, inwhich to get a replace-ment phone or cancel thesale altogether. After thattime you may be out ofluck.

“Whoever in troubleand sorrow needs yourhelp, give it to him.Whoever in anxiety orfear needs your friendship, give it to him.It isn’t important whether you approveof his conduct. It isn’t important what his

creed or nationality may be.”- E.N.West

We all know what it means to have someone by ourside and say, “I understand.” To understand is to havecompassion. It is not to condemn,but to reach out in concernand love.Compassion is a very special manifestation of love;it is a form of love that springs from the deepest recesses ofthe heart.

People who can feel compassion arefortunate because it gives them a sense ofbeing needed and useful in a world whichhopefully they can change for the better...

Wouldn’t todaybe a goodday for all of usto bemore compassionate?....
