GREEN TWP. — A formertownship official is encourag-ing residents to consider votingagainst the safety services levythe township has on the Nov. 4ballot.
Steve Grote, who served asboth a fiscal officer and a trus-tee for the township, said thelevy wouldn’t be necessary ifthe board of trustees perma-nently end the Tax IncrementFinancing (TIF) program.
Green Township trusteesvoted inJuly toplacea2.95-mill,continuous safety services levy
on the fall ballot. Issue 31, if ap-proved, would generate about$3.16million annually for policeand fire services. It would costthe owner of a home worth$100,000 an additional $103 peryear in taxes.
Grote said he contacted theHamilton County Auditor’s Of-
fice and determined the town-ship would receive roughly $3million each year from previ-ously established township taxlevies if the trustees cancel theTIFprogram, therefore erasingthe need for a new levy.
“The trustees would do thetaxpayers a great service by atleast looking at this,” he said.
Hamilton County AuditorDusty Rhodes said TIF fundsare derived from the propertytaxes paid on township parcelslocated within a specificallydesignatedTIFdistrict. Insteadof those tax funds going to lev-ies collected by taxing agenciesin the county and township, he
said the money goes into a TIFfund that the township can usefor special projects and capitalimprovements. The exceptionis school district levies; schooldistricts still receive propertytaxes from parcels in the TIFdistrict.
If the township canceled itsTIFprogram,Rhodessaidprop-erty tax revenues fromTIFpar-cels would go back to fundingany levies on the books.
He said canceling the TIF isthe township’s discretion anddoing sowould require amajor-ityvotebytheboardof trustees.
“I’ve never heard that pro-posed before,” Rhodes said.
Grote said the TIF essential-ly takes money from levies, in-cluding township levies, andputs it into a special fund.
“We are robbing Peter to payPaul,” he said. “There’s been alot of waste and bad purchaseswithTIFfunds,but that’s thena-ture of government to some de-gree.”
He said the board can put anend to it by canceling the pro-gram, which would also elimi-nate the need for a new levy.

Dozens of haunted house at-tractions open up each Octoberthroughout Greater Cincinnatiin the hopes of scaring the pantsoff thrill seekers.
From the Dent Schoolhouseto the USS Nightmare, today’scommercial haunted house in-dustry can thank the old WSAIradio station and the Sycamore-Deer Park Jaycees for settingthe foundation for local horror.
“We put on the first commer-cial haunted house in theUnitedStates in 1970,” said Cincinnatigarden expert Denny McKe-own, who organized the nation’sfirst haunt for the Jaycees andthe radio station, which wasbased in PriceHill at the time.
“I haddone avery successfulfundraiser for the Sycamore-Deer Park Jaycees and I got acall from the new program di-rector at WSAI who said hewanted to do a haunted house toraise money for charity, and heasked me to help. I jumped allover it.”
McKeown recruited volun-teers from the Jaycees, as wellas a teacher and students fromElder High School, and went towork building the hauntedhouse inahomeonSt.ClaireAv-enue in Clifton.
“We made a lot of mistakesthatfirstyear, itwastrialander-ror, but we still managed tomake $21,000 for charity. Thatwas quite a lot of money backthen,” he said.
Price Hill resident RoyHotchkiss, whose brother was
the Elder art teacher who sup-plied students to help with thehaunted house and play ghoulsand ghosts, volunteered his ar-tistic talents to help design thehaunt.
“There were16 rooms in thatfirst house full of all the classicmonstersead,”Hotchkiss said.
“Those early haunted houseswere really low tech by today’sstandards. ... If you wantedsomething special it had to bebuilt.
“That’s what I did for thoseearly haunted houses. I builtscary stuff,” he said.
McKeown said the secondyear for the haunt is when the
1st commercial hauntedhouse was in Cincinnati

citizens, he said.“The people who can’t
afford it are thosewhoareaffected the most,” hesaid.
Green Township Trus-tee Chairman Tony Ro-siello said canceling theTIF wouldn’t be benefi-cial financially.
The township has beenable to increase its taxbase by attracting newbusinesses, new medicaloffices and a new hospitalbyusingTIFmoneytopayfor infrastructure im-provements, he said. Thetownship also uses TIFfunds to purchase equip-ment and vehicles for thepolice and fire depart-ments, he said.
Without the TIF, Ro-siello said the townshipwould have to use moneyfrom its general fund topay for road improve-ments and new vehicles,which would result inlarger tax levies for resi-dents.
“The TIF program al-lows us to divert a lot ofmoney thatwould typical-ly go to the county,” hesaid. “We’re able use thatmoney to purchase equip-ment and vehicles andmake road improvementslike we did along NorthBend Road to get MercyHealth – West Hospital.Those are all very, verygood things.”
Trustee David Linnen-berg said TIF funds paidfor road improvementsthat helped the townshipattract TriHealth’s GoodSamaritanWestern Ridgedevelopment and TheChrist Hospital and Cin-cinnati Children’s Hospi-tal Medical Center outpa-tient facilities, whichhave helped bring newrestaurants and projectslike the Harrison Greenedevelopment featuringDewey’s Pizza, Graeter’s,FirstWatch cafe and Tom+ Chee to the township.
“TheTIF is an econom-ic development tool andit’s what created all ofthese projects,” he said.“The TIF, when used cor-rectly – and we’ve donethat – is huge for the town-ship.”
Linnenberg said the
township has providedTIF funds to support ath-letic improvements atOak Hills High School, LaSalle High School andCovedale School as well,benefiting scores of areastudents and families.
“If it weren’t for theTIF, I don’t see how any-one thinks we could sur-vive,” he said. “If wedidn’t have the TIF wewould have had to ask fora levy years ago.”
Rosiello said the town-ship is asking for a newlevy because the town-ship has lost about $3.4million in annual revenuedue to state funding cuts.The township is allocatingabout $1.7 million fromthegeneral fund to the po-lice department this year,and about $1.4 million tothe fire department.
The levy would givethe township the ability toadd a seventh police beatto strengthen its borderswith neighboring commu-nities, and allow the firedepartment to phase inthe addition of a secondfire and EMS crew 24hours a day, seven days aweek at the department’sheadquarters station onHarrison Avenue.
“We have to be in a po-sition to act, protectingour residents and protect-ing our property values,”Rosiello said. “Addingthat extra police beat willprovide us a great dealmore safety.”
Grote said the $3 mil-lion the township wouldreceive by ending the TIFisn’t enough to offsetshortfalls from statefunding cuts, but becausethe township has spentgeneral funds conserva-tively it should be able toweather the storm.
“We would at least get$3 million directly,” hesaid. “This issue has sig-nificant weight to it.”
Trustee Triffon Callossaid the township re-ceives roughly $8 millioneach year in capital im-provement funds fromthe TIF, so by ending theTIF, the township wouldbe sacrificing those fundsto get $3million in operat-ing dollars, resulting in anet loss of $5 million.
“I’m,quite frankly, justamazed that the formertrustee who voted to es-tablish the TIF in June
1994 would vocally comeout now and change hisposition regarding theTIF and its usage,” hesaid.
Grote said the econom-ic climate has changedsince the township creat-ed the TIF two decadesago.
Rosiello said the boardis conscientious about go-ing to residents for tax in-creases. If the levy is ap-proved, the townshipwouldstillhave the lowesttax rate of any compara-ble township in SouthwestOhio, he said.
This past spring theboard assembled theGreen Township Finan-cial Review Committee, agroup of 12 township resi-dents who spent a monthexamining the township’sfinances and reviewinglevels of service. Thecommittee recommendeda levy to make up for theloss of revenue fromstatecuts and to increase safe-ty in the township.
“We don’t shoot fromthe hip,” Rosiello said.“We’re very conscious ofhow expensive it is to livetoday and we make in-formed decisions.”
TIF GREENTOWNSHIP TIFBY THENUMBERSIn 2013, the township
received about $23.5million in TIF funds.Of those funds, $13.2
million went back to thefour school systems in thetownship and $7.5 millionwas spent on road im-provements, park up-grades and vehicle pur-chases.A balance of about
$10.3 million went to thetownship.TIF money can only be
spent on road improve-ments, land acquisitionfor public purposes, parkimprovements, police andfire vehicle purchases,police equipment pur-chases and recyclingactivities.By law, TIF funds are
not permitted to be usedfor gasoline, utility bills,salaries or benefits.

event really took off.Theyset up theproduc-
tion in an old house inReading, and he said theyraised $121,000 that year.Admissionwas only $1perperson, which meant thehaunted house attractedmore than 120,000 gueststhatyear, he said.TheJay-cees donated themoney tobuild two community cen-ters.
“No one has ever donewhat we did that secondyear,” he said.
The Jaycees and WSAIput on a fundraising hauntevery year until the early
1980s, McKeown said, andevery haunt was held in adifferent locationthroughout the city and itswhereabouts were keptsecretuntil themorningofthe opening.
Proceeds from thehaunts went to organiza-tions like the CincinnatiRecreation Commission,Camp Stepping Stones,TeenChallengeCincinnatiand Longview Hospital.Over the years,more than$500,000 was raised forcharity.
“We did a lot of good,and nobody involved evertook a dime,” McKeownsaid. “We used to prideourselvesongivingback.”
Hotchkiss said the1972haunted house on GrandAvenue in Price Hill washis first chance to designthe entire place.
“You entered a railedpathway through a verydark hallway with fog allaround. You turned a cor-nerandhadtocrossarick-ety bridge over Hell. We
had torn out the floor inthat room and created atableau depicting my im-pression of Hades,” hesaid.
“You traveled onthrough rooms with psy-chedelic lights, mysteri-ous coffins with flyingcorpses, mad surgeonsperforming unseemly op-erations on distraughtdamsels. There wasn’tanything funny about ourhaunted houses.We kept arecord of how many peo-ple fainted.”
McKeown fondly re-called one house that fea-tured a slide to get guestsfrom the third floor downto the second, where theythen got caught up in a gi-ant cobweb. He said thefirst night it opened peo-ple were getting stuck onthe slide, so he and someother volunteers went todiagnose the problem.
“Kids were peeing intheir pants as they wentdown the slide,” helaughed. “There are a lot
of funny stories fromthose days.”
Hotchkiss said, in hisopinion, the very bestWSAI haunted house wasin 1974 on Victory Park-way near Xavier Univer-sity.
“Itwas theDollyCohenMansion,” he said. “Thiswas my favorite hauntedhouse and I designed ev-ery room. Our whacky lit-tle Halloween hauntinggrew from a freaky fund-raiser tofull-onhorrifyingHollywood productions.”
McKeown said the vol-unteers put a lot of workandeffort intoputtingonagreat production becausethey knew the proceedswent toworthycauses,butthey all had a lot of funalso.
“You had a bunch ofyoung married guys whowere looking for some-thingtodo,andwewerealla little demented,”he said.“The haunted house gotthatoutofyoursystemforthe year.”

GREENTWP.—TheOakHillsHigh School girls’ soccer teamis pretty happy. In recentyears, it wasn’t always so, es-pecially at this time of year.
The Highlanders beat Mil-ford Oct. 21, 3-1, to win theirfirst sectional title since 2004.They’d lost in the sectional fi-nals in four of the last five sea-sons. Oak Hills coach ChuckLaumann, in his 24th season,said this season has been aboutthe little things.
“If the little things are nottaken care of, the big picturenever comes to fruition,” Lau-mann said. “One step, onegame, one half at a time. Let ithappen and do not force the is-sue.”
That approach has landedthe Highlanders in the districtfinal, a game they’ve neverwon in the program’s 34-yearhistory. That changed Oct. 25,when they beat Beavercreek4-0. They advance to play win-nerofMason/Springborogameafter deadline. Laumann saidhis teamhas grown this seasonfrom amaturity standpoint.
“They’ve stayed thecourse,” Laumann said. “Mostimportantly, they compete allthe time.”
OakHills has no shortage ofplaymakers on a deep roster.The Highlanders (17-1-0), whofinished second in the GreaterMiami Conference behindMa-son, have had top-to-bottomproduction andminor injuries.Because they’ve been able tostay on the field, they’re put-ting up somenumbers this sea-son.
Oak Hills has allowed justseven goals all season. Seniorkeeper Emily Lohman had 53saves and 8.5 shutouts.
Seniors Bayley Feist and
Katie Murray shared the topspot in theGMCfor totalpoints(44). Feist scored 16 goals with12 assists; Murray scored 15goals with 14 assists. JuniorSydneyKilgore couldn’t let theseniorsgetall theaction, soshescored 15 goals and added 10assists for 40 points. Oak Hillswas the only team in the GMCto have three girls reach atleast 40 points.
Since 2009, no team in theGMC has hadmultiple girls to-tal 40-or-morepoints inasingleseason. Laumann chalked thisyear’ssuccessuptostrongsen-ior leadership and a business-like approach.
Laumann said continuedsuccess in the postseasonwould hinge largely on howtheymatch upwith their oppo-nent, as well as the size of thefield and being able to adjust.
“The girls will compete andif we can get a few breaks, one
never knows what can hap-pen,” Laumann said.

PRICEHILL—Erica Schloem-er handles her business like aprofessional. She does so with asmile, presumably makingsomeone around her laugh.That’s a rare combination for afreshman.
Seton High School’sSchloemer won the Division Idistrict cross countrymeetOct.18 at Voice of America Park in18:45.52. Seton hadn’t had a dis-trict champion since the late1990s, according tocoachKarenBerndt. Erica’s won her lastthree races, including the GirlsGreater Catholic League cham-pionship.
Schloemer can run; that’s ob-vious. But, what’s more impres-sive is she hasn’t let success goto her head.
“It hasn’t changed her,”Berndt said. “She’s still just avery fun-loving, care-free, hap-py girl. She’s not afraid to putherself out there and give ev-erything she has.”
Berndt said they alwaysknewEricawas going to be spe-cial, but when she won the Fair-mont Firebird Invitational, itleft no doubt.
“She looked like a veteranrunner in that (Fairmont) race,”Berndt said.
Success hasn’t come withoutsome growing pains, though.The biggest lesson Schloemer
has learned this season is pace.“We’ve had to tell her to slow
down a little bit,” Berndt said.“We’ve been working on pacingwith her - slow down, take iteasy. Save some energy forwhat’s coming up.”
Being a freshman meansdealing with some nerves,which never really go away. Er-ica’s been able to deal with ner-vous excitement because herteam has always made her feelat home.
“You start out the year as afreshman, and you’re a littlescared,” Schloemer said. “But, Ifelt like I just clicked with theteam right away, and came outof my shell quicker than I nor-mally do.”
Erica started running in thesixth grade, and she fell in lovewith it.
“I just love racing,” she said.“I think about going out thereand giving everything I have.It’s a great feeling to know thatyou tried your best.”
The Saints didn’t qualify as ateam, but Schloemer won’t bealone in the block to start. Herteammate, sophomore AudreyLaiveling, also qualified for theregional after finishing seventhat districts (19:29.46).
“I’m always a little nervousgoing to the line,” Erica said.“But, there’s excitement mixedin with it.”
The regional meet was Oct.25 at Troy, after deadlines.

Elder outgained High-lands 486-346, including292-121 on the ground.Ramsey finished with 193yards on 22 carries.
“We did a good job upfront,” Elder coach DougRamsey said. “I thoughtour offensive line playedvery well. That’s the bestwe’ve run theball all year.We’ve really relied on thepass most of the time andwewere able to really runthe ball.”
Elder improved to 6-3,helping its own cause inthe chase for a Division I,

On Halloween everybodythinks about ghosts and spooks,but some people deal with them
all the time.In an old
communitylike Saylerwhere most ofthe houses arebetween 80-and 150-years-old, there couldbe spooks ev-erywhere. Inthe new book,“Pictures thatMust be Seen
and more Sayler Park Stories,”there is a list of spooky thingsgoing on in Sayler Park. Theywere presented at a Historical
Society’s story event inOctober2013.
At 7373 Gracely Drive a sin-gle woman was lying on thefloor and the other two floorswere empty. She heard foot-steps pacing above her all thetime. When she went out atnight she left a side porch lighton. When she returned, a thirdfloor light came on. When sheasked her landlady about it shedidn’t get any answers, becausethe landlady wanted to rentthose two floors. When the sec-ond floor was rented the resi-dents also heard noises andthings would move around, likeone day she put on a shoe andfound an egg in the toe.
At6712Jersey, the ladyof the
house heard footsteps upstairsall the time. She got some HolyWater from St. Al’s and sprin-kled it on each door and said aprayer. The noise was quiet un-til one night she was awaken bya conversation by two youngpeople talking. It sounded liketheywere beside her bed. A girlwas telling a boy it was time toleave and it would be OK to go.She didn’t think shewas dream-ing,becausehereyeswerewideopen.After thatnight itwasqui-et.
In the old house at143Chero-kee, therewerestrangehappen-ings. A mother was changing adiaper for her baby, andher twochildren were eating breakfast.Suddenly the toilet flushed in
the bathroom off of the kitchen.Then the door opened and shutandthe lightwentoff,butnoonecame out.
She also heard footstepscoming from the second floor.The basement door would openand the footstepswentdown thebasement.Her dogswould barkat the attic door. If she had to goup theywould dart ahead of herlike they were chasing some-one.When they cornered it theylunged back and forth like theywere biting at it. But there wasnothingthere.Shesummeditupto the Indian burial mound be-hind the house on Parkland.
There are more stories ofspooky things going on. Youmay even have a few of your
own to add.If you don’t have your book
yet, you can get one at EdenChapel Methodist at 150 Dahliabetween11a.m. and 3 p.m.Mon-day to Thursday. It can also bepurchased at St. AloysiusChurch, at134WhippleSt., fromRenee’ Cipriani after SundayMass.

Oct. 22 questionTwo women were
killed when hit by avehiclewhilewalkingalong Old ColerainAvenue and East Mi-amiRiverRoadearlierthismonth.What pre-cautions do you takewhenwalking?
“Walk/run facingtraffic – and stepaside when you seetraffic coming.Wear bright coloredclothing (even re-flective clothing) toassure you are easi-ly seen by oncomingvehicles.”
C.G.
“When walkingalong any roadway Ialways, always, al-wayswalkon the leftside against traffic.At least that willgive me a fightingchance to see ifsomeone in a car isdrifting onto theshoulder and righttoward me. If a per-son iswalking on theright side of theroad, the only warn-ing they have of im-minent death ormaiming is the fate-
ful and oh-so-painfulfeel of metal on skinand bones. Whenwalking inornearanactive roadway I as-sume that I am in-visible to the car andtake the personal re-sponsibility to getout of their way. If itis dark or dusk Iwear reflectiveclothing or a vest. Ialso keep in the fore-front ofmybrain thesimple fact that in acar vs. pedestriancontest, the car (ortruck) will alwayswin.”
M.J.F.
“Walking on theside of the road, fac-ing traffic, in mostcases allows thewalker to determinean oncoming threat.
“Walking beforesidewalks arecleaned, or using theplowed streets be-cause someonehasn’t cleaned theirsidewalk, is a reallygood way to put adriver in an awk-ward and undesiredposition.”

Grote’s TIF stance curiousBecause facts are indeed stubborn
things, I respond to SteveGrote’sOct.22 letter inwhichheclaimed that can-celing Green Township’s TIF pro-gramwould provide themoney need-ed to provide safety services withouta tax levy.
Contrary to Mr. Grote’s recollec-tion that the TIF programwas initiat-ed in 1996 “by Trustee Upton and oth-ers” it was instead initiated in 1994. Imade the motion; it was seconded bynone other than then-trustee SteveGrote, and unanimously passed.
Contrary to his assertion that TIFfunds have been used “for unrealisticdevelopment schemes and wastefulland purchases,” Green Township’sTIF funds have paid for five new firestations, all firevehicles, allpoliceve-hicles, the Nathanael Greene Lodge,numerous new parks and extensiveroadwayimprovementsallalongHar-rison and North Bend roads.
TIF funds have leveraged thegame-changing developments thatbrought us the new Mercy Hospital,the TriHealth Emergency Hospitaland the Christ and Children’s Hospi-tal projects. Without these TIF funds,none of this could have happenedwithout a massive increase in town-ship taxes.
Canceling the TIF program now –10 years early – would not only de-priveGreenTownship of this tremen-dous source of capital improvementmoney, but also shift millions of dol-lars out of Green Township and backto Hamilton County. It would kill thesingle biggest thing that differen-tiates Green Township from many ofour neighboring townships who havehigher taxes, fewer amenities, andgreater demographic challenges.
Like John Kerry, who was for theIraq war before he was against it,SteveGrotewas for the township TIFprogram before he was (now) against
it. The question is why, when it hasdone so much palpable good?
State Sen. Bill SeitzGreen Township
The real truthSteve Grote’s article in last week’s
Community Press is verymisleading.Based on his unfounded comments, itwouldbewrong tovoteagainst thepo-lice, fire and EMS levy.
If Green Township gives up theTax Increment Financing (TIF)funds,whichMr.Grotevotedtoestab-lish inJune1994, thetownship loses$8million in capital improvement fundsto get $3million for operatingdollars,a net loss of $5 million for the town-ship. These millions of capital im-provement dollars are used to pur-chase emergency vehicles and all theequipment in the police, fire andEMSdepartments. TIF funds are used torepave township streets and initiateroadway improvement projects ...such as, the widening of North BendRoadinfrontof thenewMercyHospi-tal. These capital purchases plus oth-er road projects could never be doneif the TIF funds were lost.
A panel of 12 township residentsresearched hundreds of documentsand met to review the township’s fi-nances. After considerable investiga-tion, theFinancialReviewCommitteeunanimously recommended to thetrustees that a police, fire and EMSlevyneeds to be placed on the fall bal-lot.Mr.Grotedidnotaskforanytown-ship records before making his mis-guidedstatements.This isnot respon-sible behavior.
We are highly disappointed withMr. Grote’s misguided statements.We as trustees value the men andwomen that put their lives on the linefor our community. Please supportour police, fire and EMS personneland vote for Issue 31.

Restore fundingcuts to PWC
People Working Cooperativelyplays a crucial role in the City of Cin-cinnati providing critical home re-pairs and services so that low income,elderly, disabled homeowners andveterans can remain in their homesliving independently in a safe andhealthy environment.
Ourmission tohelpasmanypeoplein our community as we can is now atserious risk. The City of Cincinnati,who we consider a supportive part-ner, has recommended a reduction onPWC’s budget. Recent action by CityCouncil and the Mayor has restoredsome of the recommended reduction.For this we are appreciative.
However, PWC is so effective inmaximizingeverydollar, Ibelieve thefunding needs to be restored in full.The organization is ranked in thehighest category by the CommunityDevelopmentAdvisoryBoardand isamodel for organizations around thecountry.
For every dollar the City allocatesto PWC, PWC turns it into $3 by cre-atively securing matching gifts andgrants. In turn, the loss of every dol-lar is actually a loss of $3 to the PWCbudget. Continuing full financial sup-port ofPWCis suchawise investmentbyCincinnati in Cincinnati and awiseuse of the taxpayer dollars.
I am asking our city leaders to re-consider cuts to PWC and to restoreall funding to this effective and effi-cient organization. The city’s returnon investment with PWC is signifi-cant but the impact of PWC’s work inour Cincinnati neighborhoods andfamilies is far greater.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
As the election approaches, there is alot of talkabout theeconomyand jobcre-ation.Unfortunately, a lot of it is just that– talk.
In a recent column in this paper, myopponentspenta lotof timetalkingabouta so-called bipartisan jobs group that hewould form to talk about job creation.Whathedoesn’t talk about – anysubstan-tive proposals to actually create jobs.
Here is what I think we should actu-ally do to spur job creation.
Because small businesses are thebackbone of our economy, employingmore thanhalf of theU.S.workforce andcreating seven out of every 10 new jobs,theymust be the focus of our efforts. Assmall business owners in this communi-
ty and across the coun-try have told me, thekey to job creation is re-moving the obstaclesthat prevent their busi-nesses from growingand adding employees.
The first obstacle wemust address is the dif-ficultymanysmallbusi-nesses have accessingcapital. I have intro-duced several propos-
als that would help, at no cost to taxpay-ers, increase the flow of much-needed,private capital into small businesses,thereby allowing them to expand opera-tions and hiring.
Next, we should help ease the regula-tory burden on small businesses. Giventheir limited resources, it is particularlydifficult forsmallbusinesses tonavigatethe labyrinth of burdensomeregulationscoming out of Washington.
To address this growing burden, theHouse has passed several bipartisan re-forms to the rule-making process, in-cluding a proposal to require federalagencies to seek regulatory alternativesthat are less costly for smaller compa-nies.
We should work to expand trade op-portunities for small firms. Due to thecomplexmaze of trade rules and regula-tions both foreign and domestic, lessthan one percent of small businesses ac-
tively export their products. To helpboost small business exports, I have pro-posed streamlining the complicated ex-port process and providing small busi-nesses access to the tools they need tosell their products abroad. Simply put,more exports mean more jobs.
These common-sense, bipartisan pro-posalswillhelpprovidesmallbusinessesthe capital and resources they need togrow, expand and create jobs. I amhope-ful that after the election, wewill finallyhave aSenate that iswilling toworkwiththe House to enact these critical re-forms.

In last week’s paper,my opponent TedWinkler
belittledmy life’swork, so,letme setthe rec-ordstraight.
Asmayor, Ifocusedon help-ingneighbor-hoods
solve problems and im-provingourqualityof life.
As Congressman, I fo-cused on constituent
work, helping to find solu-tions for citizens whowere frustrated in theirdealings with the federalgovernment.
As an attorney I repre-sented clients at everylevel of the judiciary, ar-riving at outcomes thatsatisfied my clients andour community. My expe-rience in public servicehas indeed been diverse,and it’s exactly the kind ofexperience that the Pro-bate Court needs.
As I shook hands withvoters across the countyat church festivals, pa-rades, and flea markets
people shared with metheir experiences at criti-cal junctures in theirlives, confirming my be-lief that theProbateCourtis a place where I canmake a difference.
I heard people open upabout how they feel help-less to stop the downwardspiral of an adult child orbrother or sister suffer-ing with mental illness orsubstance abuse, fearingthat the troubled familymember would spend alifetime in and out of trou-blewith the law, homelesson the streets, or worse.
Young couples told me
about their protractedstruggles to adopt a child,at times finding it diffi-cult not to be discouragedby bureaucratic red tape,wondering how a childthey want to love as theirown is still not theirs. Peo-ple toldmehowconfusingit is to probate a deceasedparent’s estate while stillgrieving for their loss.
What all these peopletoldmewas further proofof what I already know asan attorney – that the Pro-bate Court is truly a cra-dle to grave court wherepeople come for help. Un-like other courts where
people are brought to an-swer criminal charges orwhere civil disputes overmoney are resolved, theProbate Court is wherepeople come for help onthe most personal andsensitive of matters.
I believe the ProbateJudge can and should ad-vocateforfamilies in timeof crisis. And to help citi-zens, I have proposed aProbate Academy to beheld at senior citizen cen-ters and other locationsthroughout the countywhere people can come tolearn about wills, thesteps of estate admini-
stration, the adoptionprocess, and other impor-tant aspects of the court.
One thing this cam-paign has made clear isthat the most importantrole of the Probate CourtJudge is to help others.I’m asking for your sup-port because together wecan make the ProbateCourt even more helpfulto our families, and tothousands of our fellowcitizens. That’s why I askfor your vote on Tuesday.

Flu season is upon us,and the best thing you cando to protect yourself and
others isto getyour flushot.
Phar-maciesare aquick,conve-nient,and inex-pensiveoptionfor those
looking to get immunizedand pharmacists want tovaccinate to help preventthe spread of disease.
Pharmacistsacross thestate can administer theseasonal influenza vac-cine, as well as severalother vaccines allowed byOhio lawandrecommend-ed by the Centers for Dis-ease Control and Preven-tion.
Unfortunately, phar-macists cannot adminis-ter all of the vaccines rec-ommended by the CDC.Thegoodnewsis there isapiece of legislation in theOhio Senate (House Bill394) that would allowpharmacists to adminis-ter all CDC-recommend-ed vaccines to patientswho are 7-year-old andolder.
That bill passed out ofthe House this year by avote of 82-7, and is in theSenate Medicaid, Health& Human Services Com-mittee,where it awaits ac-tion.
We want to get this billpassed before the end ofthe year, and so Ohioansare encouraged to contactour senators to pass thislegislation.
Consider for amomentthat there has been analarming increase in thenumber of cases of
mumps, measles and per-tussis in the state of Ohiothis past year – some ofour worst outbreaks indecades. Add to that, theimmunization rates inOhio are well below thebottomhalf of the countrywhen compared to otherstates. HB 394 will givepharmacists an evengreater opportunity to in-crease immunizationrates in Ohio which has apositive impact on all ofus.
Please remember toget up-to-date with yourvaccination schedule. So,why not begin today bygetting your flu shot?

CE-0000608852
Serving Delhi & Western Hillsfor over 33 years.
I had nuts left overfrommaking caramelapples so I decided tomake some peanut brit-tle. Peanut brittle can bea tricky candy to make,and some of my recipescall for a candy ther-mometer along with the
addition ofbakingsoda, nei-ther ofwhich thisreciperequires. Iwill tellyou thatthis peanutbrittledoesn’thave the
“snap” and somewhatairy texture of traditionalbrittle. Regardless, it’ssooo good.
I’m thinking I shouldhave waited until theholidays to share since itmakes a fabulous giftfrom the kitchen. Butyou knowme, if I makesomething that is awe-somely good, I can hard-ly wait to share. Makethis now and save therecipe to make duringthe holidays. Betcha can’teat just one piece!
Simple peanutbrittle
Chock full of nuts. Ifyou want more of brittle,use less nuts. AdaptedfromMelanie Barnard’srecipe. As Melanie toldme “follow directionsand it works every time.”If all you have in the frigis salted butter, that’s OKto use.
1/2 stick unsaltedbutter
1/2 cup sugar2 tablespoons corn
syrup - I’ve used bothlight and dark and pre-fer dark
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups saltedmixednuts or peanuts
Line cookie sheet withfoil and spray it. Stirbutter, sugar and cornsyrup in pan over medi-um heat until sugar meltsand mixture bubbles andbecomes smooth. Coverand cook for a minute.Stir in vanilla and nutsand cook, stirring con-stantly, until nuts arefragrant and goldenbrown, about 5 minutes.Don’t overcook. Pouronto foil, spreading thin.Cool and break apart.Store, tightly covered, atroom temperature up to aweek.
Baked potatoeswith cheese saucelike Wendy’s
For the reader whowants to avoid buyingthese throughWendy’sdrive thru. Homemade isalways better! Here’s acheese sauce that’s soversatile. It’s good onbroccoli and other veg-gies, too. Sometimes I’llwhisk in a squirt of Dijonor dry mustard with themilk mixture. Sharp ormild cheddar work equal-ly well.
And here’s a question Iget asked a lot: can youuse any kind of potatoesfor baking? Well, yes, butthe true baking potatoes,like Idaho, have morestarch in them and bakeup drier and fluffy. Andthey’re really the best, Ithink, for mashed pota-toes. Others, like red, willbake up more “waxy”and firm. My take on it?The bakers are best, butif all you have are red orother kinds, go for it.
4 nice sized bakedpotatoes
2 Tablespoons butter2 Tablespoons flour
Salt & pepper1 cupmilk1-1/2 cups shredded
cheddarMelt butter in pan
over medium heat. Addflour and whisk for oneminute. Slowly whisk inmilk and whisk untilthickened, about 5 min-utes. Remove from heatand stir in cheese untilsmooth. Add salt andpepper to taste.
Make a lengthwisesplit in potatoes. Smooshup at both ends to openand fluff up. Pour cheesesauce over.
Tip from Rita’skitchen: Broccoliand cheese stuffedpotatoes
Steam some broccoliflorets and add beforepouring on cheese.
Readers want toknow: are beetsgood for you?
You bet they are.Boost your brainpowerwith beets. As we age,poor blood flow contrib-utes to cognitive decline.Research shows thatbeets can help increaseblood flow to the brain,which helps improvemental alertness andperformance and mayhelp prevent Alzheim-er’s.
Eat them roasted withred onions, olive oil, rose-mary and thyme, thendrizzled with Balsamicvinegar for a true feast.

Whenbuying anew car isit a goodidea toimmedi-ately buyan extend-ed servicewarranty?Many peo-ple do that,
but if you do, you have tobe very careful aboutjust what you are buying.
When John Scudder, ofHillsboro, bought a newcar a few years ago hesaid he didn’t think twicewhen asked about buyingan extended service war-ranty. “She asked, ‘Doyou want a 60,000-milewarranty?’ I said, ‘OK,
sure,’ ” Scudder said.It was only later that
he asked about the par-ticular warranty hebought and found it wasfrom an independentcompany, not from thevehicle manufacturer.Scudder said he ran intoproblems when he tookhis car into another deal-er and showed his war-
ranty.“He said, “We don’t
accept it.’ I went to mymechanic and he doesn’taccept it. Then he went toanother mechanic – butno one accepted it,” Scud-der said.
The dealer who soldhim the policy said therewas no problem, that heshould bring the car back
to them.“He said, ‘If you
brought the car backhere we would have ac-cepted it.’ But, what ifI’m in Florida? Mydaughter is a doctordown there. I would haveto tow it back 2,000 milesand it just doesn’t makesense,” Scudder said.
Scudder paid $2,200for the warranty and saidhe now realizes he shouldhave bought the manu-facturer’s extended ser-vice warranty instead.
“If it was a Hondawarranty they wouldcover it. I didn’t need touse it because myHondaran great. But they saidbecause it’s not a Hondawarranty they won’t eventalk with you.” Scuddersaid.
Consumer Reports has
found most readers spentmore on their warrantythan they saved in re-pairs. But if you stillwant to buy a warrantyyou don’t have to do soimmediately. You canwait until just before theoriginal warranty ex-pires to buy the extendedwarranty.
If you wait you’ll knowwhether you really wantto keep the car. But beadvised, you will prob-ably have to pay more forthe extended warranty atthat point.
