CELEBRATING FLAGDAY B1
Fiscal court 911 fee vote postponed
ALEXANDRIA — While votingon a per-unit 911 service fee waspostponed during the CampbellCounty Fiscal Court meeting,community members in atten-dance still took the opportunityto speak against the proposedchange.
Staff recently developed theordinance that, if passed by thecourt, would replace the $3monthly fee on all land linephoneswith a $45 per-unit annu-
al fee.Judge-executive Steve Pen-
dery said the change is neces-sary due to a decrease in landline phones in the county.
County Administrator Rob-ert Horine said in May 2002,there were 45,000 land lines inthe county. In May 2013, therewere only 27,000.
Pendery said while money iscollected from cell phone users,thatmoneygoestothestate,whothen allocates it to the counties.
In Campbell County, that re-turn is small, equaling about 35cents per phone permonth, Pen-dery said.
Horinesaid thecourtdecidedto postpone the vote to give offi-cials time to make languagechanges in theordinanceandad-
dress community concerns.Some of those concerns were
presented by community mem-bers at the meeting, includingPaulWhalen, chair of the Camp-bell County Democratic Execu-tive Committee.
“Myself and the majority oftheCampbellCountyDemocrat-ic Executive Committee opposethis,”Whalen said. “The citizensofCampbellCountyneedquality911emergencydispatchservice,however, the fiscal court has notpresentedto thepublicdetailsorfacts and figures on why thischange is needed.”
Whalen also said that the per-unit fee, meant a single-familyresidential home would be pay-ing the same as large commer-cial units, such as Wal-mart and
Kroger, who he feels have more911 calls than residential units.
“Itplacesanunfairburdenonindividual private propertyowners as opposed to commer-cial entities,” Whalen said.
Horine said the CampbellCounty Consolidated DispatchCenter needs about $1.8 millionto maintain its current opera-tions.
Funding for the new feewouldcomefromall of thecoun-ties approximately 43,000 units,madeupof about 41,000 residen-tial units and about 2,000 com-mercial units.
“It’s difficult to come upwitha fee that spreads the burdenevenly,” Horine said.
Right now, it’s primarily old-er people and small businesses
that are carrying the burden ofthat funding, but it’s not enough,Horine said.
Without somekindofsolutionthe dispatch center, that hasbeen operating with a yearlyloss since 2011, is on par to beabout $500,000 in the red by2015, Horine said.
Charles Tassell, director ofgovernmental affairs for theGreater Cincinnati & NorthernKentucky Apartment Associa-tion, which works with about2,600 apartment units in thecounty, also spoke out againstthe ordinance, presenting infor-mation about legal cases he saidshows that the proposed fee isnot legally sound.

CARRIER OF THE MONTH

Community Recorder
There’s agroupofbusi-nessmen and women inGreater Cincinnati thathave an alter ego. By day,they’re presidents, execu-tives and teachers. Out-side the office, they’rerock and roll stars.
Fiveyearsago, theyde-cided to join forces, andtheresultwas thecreationof Suits that Rock.
For two nights thismonth, 45 “suits”will takethe stage on two Satur-days at The Carnegie Vi-sual and Performing ArtsCenter’s Otto M. BudigTheatre toperformasum-mer set list of rock songsfrom past to present. Theperformance raises mon-ey for the Carnegie’s EvaG. Farris Education Cen-ter, which provides artseducation to more than
10,000 children annually.Last year, the two
shows amassed $70,000,bringing the five-year to-tal to $330,000.
“It all started with abunch of fallen-away mu-siciansthathadgottendayjobs,” said JohnDomasch-ko, a member of the PBSFoundationBoardwho co-founded Suits that Rock.“If you’ve ever done mu-sic, you’ve never foundanything else that didquite the same thing foryou. Originally wethought the music wouldbe fairly awful, but thereare some amazing musi-cians in this group. It’s ablast from the past.”
The group does in factinclude many businessprofessionals who haveimpressive musical back-grounds. Several used toplayprofessionallybeforejoining the businessworld.
Chuck Reed, for exam-ple, is the director of engi-neering and facilities atNewport Aquarium andpresident of River City
Productions. He is in aband called DV8 that hasopened for Styx.
Paul Bromwell hasbeen the chief informa-tion officer at FrostBrown Todd, LLC, since1991. In the early1980s, hewas in a band called “TheYoung Invaders” that wonthe first MTV Basement
Tapes, a showwhere user-submitted videos wereshown and viewers votedon the best group. Brom-well just released a newalbum titled “Resurrec-tionMan.”
GregShumate, acorpo-rate lawyer at FrostBrown Todd, who alsoserved as a special justiceto the Supreme Court ofKentucky,hasbeen insev-eral bands including hiscurrent group, The Drys-dales, who have openedfor Eddie Money twice.
“When I was a teen-ager, I played for crowdsthis big, but it was differ-ent,” Domaschko said.“When you’re seventeen,you’re worried that if youscrew up you’re not goingto get another date. At myage, I figure my wife ispretty immune to any em-barrassment I can createfor her.”
The nights are con-structed so thatmusiciansrotate throughout the eve-ning. Suits members willshuffle in and out period-ically, creating an envi-
ronment that is excitingfor everyone in the build-ing.
“We’ve always said thecrowd is an extension ofwhowe are on stage,” saidKevin Canafax, Midwestvice president of publicaffairs at Fidelity Invest-ments and a co-founder ofSuits that Rock. “If youthink about the people inthe audience, they’re ei-ther family, friends orcommunity leaders thatall of us work with.”
This year, the show hasadded six “guest suits” toaddto theexperience.Oneof those is former Coving-tonmayorChuckScheper,whowilldustoffhisguitarfor one song.
“I used to play acousticguitar in college,” Schep-er said. “And it was somuch fun playing. It’s areal privilege and an hon-or to be able to get up on-stage and perform. I’mvery excited.”
Scheperhasbeenareg-ular at Suits that Rocksince its inception in 2008,but switching to the other
side this year has provid-ed a whole new experi-ence.
“I came every year be-cause the music was sogood and I knew some ofthe people performing,”he said. “But it’s a little bitdaunting thinking that I’mgoing to be up there on-stage.”
The theme this year isSwimsuits: Songs forSummer. Shows arescheduled for Saturdays,June 22 and 29, in the OttoM. Budig Theatre at TheCarnegie. Doors open at 7p.m.andtheconcertstartsat 8 p.m. Tickets are $50for mezzanine and $75 fororchestra. The theaterholds 465 people.
“We have such a greattime, and then to have ittranslate into the biggestfundraiser that The Car-negie has ... we blew bywin-win a long time ago,”Domaschko said. “Thebiggest challenge will be,when this year is over,we’ll look at each otherand say ‘How the hell arewe going to top that?’”

nities and veterans afterthe ceremony, Bush said.
Maggie Lews, a TeamDepot captain, helped theV.F.W. fill out all thepaper-work to apply for the pro-gram, he said.
“Theygaveus the floor,theygaveus the installers,so we’re as happy as alark,” Bush said.
Bush said the cost ofthe materials donated notcounting the volunteer la-bor was about $5,400.
“We definitely appreci-ate what Home Depot hasdone, we could never af-ford this floor,” he said.
In addition to V.F.W.member and ladies auxil-iary meetings, the hall isalso open for weddingsand is used for turkey raf-fles for the American Le-gion, dances and even forreceptions after funerals,he said.
The hall is meant for
use by the community,Bush said.
Members of the posthave already painted thewalls andput in anewceil-ing in preparation for thenew floor, he said. The oldlinoleum tile flooring wasin place for at least 20years, and needed updat-ing, Bush said.
“It was long overduefor an update,” he said.
Work to complete thenew floor was halfwaydone at the end of June 11,and was scheduled to becompleted June 12, Bushsaid.

HOW THE PROGRAMWORKSTeam Depot is an associate-led volunteer force of thou-
sands, who donate their time and talents to positivelytransform neighborhoods and make basic repairs andmodificaions to home and facilities serving veterans withcritical housing needs, according to a news release fromHome Depot.In the past five years, $80 million has been committed
by The Home Depot Foundation to support the TeamDepot efforts for veterans, according to the news release.Since being formed in 2002, the foundation has granted
more than $340 million to nonprofit organizations toimrpove homes and lives in communities, according to therelease.For information visit www.homedoptfoundation.org.

Tassell said targetingan increased feebasedonunits instead of usage isunconstitutional.
County Attorney
Steve Franzen addressedpart of those concernsduring the meeting, stat-ing that since the propos-al is for a fee, not a tax, hebelieves the ordinancewouldgo throughwithoutlegal scrutiny.
Horine said expectsthat the first reading ofthe revised ordinancewill be held later in June,with the second readingand vote happening atone of the fiscal court’sJuly meetings.

ALEXANDRIA—Gather-ings of the 4-year-oldCampbell County Ameri-canLegionPost 219LadiesAuxiliary group are allabout going to work forveterans and active dutytroops.
The group consists ofabout 20 women, saidfounding member AnitaHofstetter of Grants Lick.
Welcoming home“Honor Flights” forWorldWar II veterans to see thememorial in Washington,
D.C. isoneofthethingsthegroup has done, Hofstet-ter said.
Auxiliary memberswelcomed home Alexan-dria resident Alex Futsch-er, and other veterans,who went on an HonorFlight in May, as they ar-rivedbackhomeat theair-port, she said.
“We were all just theredressed in our red, whiteand blue with balloons,and we all clapped,” Hof-stetter said.
The group also sendspackages to the troopsservingoverseas, shesaid.
The auxiliary previouslyhelped soldiers with PostTraumatic Stress Disor-der (PTSD) by volunteer-ing at an equine therapyprogram that used to existat the Campbell LodgeBoys Home, Hofstettersaid.
“We’re all for the veter-ans, that’s our main goal,”she said.
Group members alsohave visitedwith veteransat the Fort Thomas-VAMedical Center, Hofstet-ter said.
Last year, the auxiliarydonated to two veterans’
families at Christmasthrough the SalvationArmy and Society of St.Vincent DePaul, Hofstet-ter said.
The auxiliary also col-lected 45 U.S. flags thisyear that were destroyedproperly at a June 9 cere-mony, she said.
Alexandria resident Li-sa Placke said the auxilia-ry retired the flags at theCampbell County Veter-ans of Foreign Wars Post3205 in Alexandria byburning them with honorceremonies. Many peopledon’t knowwhat to dowith
their old U.S. flags, so theauxiliary collects them,Placke said.
“Nobody wants to dis-card them in the trash oranything,” she said.
Auxiliary membersalso volunteer to work asgreeters and to stock theU.S.O. loungeat theGreat-er Cincinnati/NorthernKentucky InternationalAirport, Placke said.
The June 8 cruise-infundraiser, one of the aux-iliary’s biggest of the year,coincided with the June 9flag retirement ceremony.The cruise-in pays to send
packages to troops and forother veterans assistanceprograms, she said.
This year’s cruise-infundraiser collectedabout$1,200 for the group,Placke said.
Auxiliary member An-drea Record of SilverGrove she likes not onlythe group’s mission, butwhat they get to do togeth-er.

HIGHLAND HEIGHTS —Holly Hill Children’s Ser-vices has moved the or-
ganization’s communityservices office fromWild-er to a bigger space inHighland Heights with aplan to expand programs.
The new Family Con-
py,” said EileenMoore, di-rector of community-based services.
The hope is to addmar-riage counseling and ther-apy groups for parentsand children to talk overthe next few months,Moore said.
One advantage of mov-ing the office to HighlandHeights, is that the centeris onabus linenow,Mooresaid.
“For some families,transportation is a big is-sue, andmoney,” she said.
The community ser-vice outreach programsdealwitheverythingfromanger management tohelping children whodon’t know how to be so-cially appropriate, Mooresaid.
“Children in the autismspectrum can fall in therebecause some of them are
still learning socialskills,” she said.
A therapeutic adult-to-child mentoring programis also offered, and the of-fice is open seven days aweek, Moore said.
Holly Hill still offers aresidential treatment pro-gram for girls in Califor-nia.
“The shift is towardcommunity services andawayfromresidentialser-vices and catching thechildren and workingwith existing services inthe community,” Mooresaid.
Children leaving theresidential program maybe ready to leave the pro-gram, but still need“wrap-around” servicesat the office or home tohelp with the transition,she said.
“Some kids if theyleave residential and theyjust go immediately totheir home, they can fallapart very quickly,”Moore said.
Children in the pro-grams have a diagnosis,which can range fromADHD to children withautism, she said. Rightnow, children have to beMedicaid-eligible to be intheprograms,Mooresaid.Holly Hill is working to-ward a goal of being ableto accept private insur-ance includingBlueCrossand Blue Shield, she said.
Parentsarewelcometocall Holly Hill for assis-tance, and often do so,Moore said.
“At this point we get
self-referral, parents call-ing us to saying ‘can youhelp us’ to school counsel-ors, hospitals,” she said.“It really can come fromanybody.”
The supervised visita-tion program for domes-tic violenceordivorcehasbeen offered for about 15years, Moore said. Someparents come voluntarily,but most are court-or-dered and come for anhour or two each week,she said.
“And they get to bewith their kids in aneutralsetting,nobody’saccusingthem, and we documenthow they do, and thenthat’s information thatgoes back to the court,”Moore said. “And some-times people come a littleangry when they firstcome here, but after theycomehereforawhile theyrealize that this a goodplace and thatwe’re docu-menting all the good stuffthey’re doing. We’re notlooking for fault.”
The main advantage ofthe supervised visitationprogram is that every-thing that happens in theroom with the child is ac-curately reported back tothe court, said StephanieHengge, supervised visi-tation coordinator.
There are toys, games,a video game system, ta-ble and chairs in a com-fortable – but still struc-tured environment,Hengge said.
“We try tomake it feel-ing likea livingroom,”shesaid.

ALEXANDRIA — TheCampbell County Officeof Emergency Manage-ment has reached out to200 volunteer organiza-tions to further coordi-nate future emergencyresponse efforts andavoid duplication.
The new effort iscalled Campbell CountyVoluntary OrganizationsActive in Disaster(VOAD). For informationon the national VOAD co-alition and principles be-hind the idea visit thewebsite www.nvoad.org.
It’s known thereareal-ready resources outthere available in a disas-ter, saidWilliamRayTur-ner, director of the emer-gency management of-fice inAlexandria.VOADis away to get each group“on the same page,” Tur-ner said.
“In the tornado’s ofMarch 2012 the impor-tance of our nonprofitand faith-based organiza-tions were highlighted inthe responses tomeet theneeds of our own Camp-bell County citizens andour neighbors in sur-rounding counties, evenin eastern Kentucky,”Turner said in a news re-lease.
Turner said even hewas surprised whenteams of people from theCAREMissionnearAlex-andria showed up in thePeach Grove area readyandequipped to helpwithcutting tree limbs andother cleanup.
“I knew about theCARE Mission, but I hadno idea that they did de-bris removal,” he said.
The VOAD will be
open to nonprofit andnonpartisan member-ship-based organiza-tions. The goal of theVOAD will be to serve asa forum to share knowl-edge and resourcesthroughout a disaster cy-cle from preparation toresponse and recovery,Turner said. VOAD isabout helping disastersurvivors and their com-munities, he said.
Turner said he stillwants to talkwithgroups,and work on the VOAD isjust beginning, he said.

HIGHLAND HEIGHTS —Most people haveheard ofhuman trafficking, but agroup of Northern Ken-tuckyUniversity studentshave found that very fewreally understand it andeven less realize it’s hap-pening in their own back-yard.
These are things stu-dents in the honors pro-gram class Place in Vio-lence have been workingto change.
“So many people areshocked to hear that hu-man trafficking happenshere,” said student KatyMiller. “We’re really hop-ing to bring more aware-ness to this issue.”
The class is followingin the footsteps of an inde-pendent study researchproject the universityheld last semester lookingat the extent of humantrafficking in this region.
Through the project,students partnered withtheWomen’sCrisisCenterin Covington and conduct-ed surveys of health clin-ics, police and other agen-cies to document humantrafficking in the Camp-bell, Boone and Kentoncounties.
Miller, who participat-ed in the research project,said she couldn’t believewhat they found.
“I started looking intohuman trafficking andfound all these things thatwere just shocking tome,”Miller said. “I becamevery passionate about it
and wanted to get in-volved.”
Professor Belle Zem-brodt, who participated inthe research project andteaches the Place in Vio-lence class, said when itcomes to human traffick-ing,many people don’t un-derstand that it can con-sist of people, mainlywomen and minors withan average age of 12-14,being held against theirwill to perform commer-cial sex acts.
In many cases, thesepeople aren’t criminals,the way they’re oftenviewed, but are insteadvictims, who are havingtheir lives or the lives ofthe family membersthreatened, Zembrodtsaid.
Zembrodt said North-ern Kentucky has severalfactors that contribute tothe level of human traf-ficking, including beingan high traffic area closeto highways and the air-port and having severalareas of at-risk , low-in-come populations.
Miller said throughtheir research, they foundthat10 percent of local po-lice surveyed had encoun-tered a minor involved inhuman trafficking.
Student Katelyn Gab-bard, who also participat-ed in the research project,said the students present-ed their findings to stateofficials, who later passedHouse Bill 3, a bill thatprovides protection andcare to sexually-exploitedchildrenand increases thepenalties for human-traf-
fickers.Using the findings of
the research project, thePlace inViolenceclasshasbeen working to spreadawareness about the is-sue.
The class recentlyhosted two Fight Fairevents on campus, duringwhich they hung informa-tional fliers and got stu-dents to sign letters toGovernor Steve Beshearand local lawenforcementagencies to get bettertraining for police offi-cers.
While there are laws inplace to protect againsthuman trafficking, thetraining in that area islacking, Zembrodt said.
Student Erin McCartysaid as college studentsthey have identified this
problem and need to seethat it’s addressed.
“We need to do our bestto make sure as we grow,our community growstoo,” McCarty said.

ALEXANDRIA—ReileyElementary School nurseDarleneWalton was wonder-ing about how to help withtornado relief in Oklahoma –until she found out the broth-er of a staff member is apastor near the heavy stormdamage.
Remembering the torna-do damage in Peach Groveand Piner fromMarch 2,2012, Walton said she wantedto do something. Walton saidshe learned that Glenn Peck,brother Nancy Burns, a staffdeveloper at Reiley, is pastorof St. Louis First BaptistChurch near Shawnee, Okla.Peck was looking for help
for the storm-damaged com-munity, Walton said.
Walton said Peck is aretired U.S. Navy Colonel,and has been pastor for 20years.
“His family was spared,and his homewas spared,but the community wherehis church is is very lowincome,” she said. “So, he’sreaching out and trying tohelp them through the dev-astation and the loss oflives.”
TheMay19 tornadoes inOklahoma hit less than aweek before the end of class-esMay 28. There wasn’tmuch time to act, she said.
“So, we sent home notesto all of our families, andwe’ve just started collecting
moneys,”Walton said.Walton said she also asked
the district office of Camp-bell County Schools to see ifa jeans day fundraiser forstaff could happen for torna-do relief. ByMay 28, Reileyhad raised $917, she said.
Adding in the jeans dayfundraiser, the district andschool raised a total of$2,344, saidWilma Sissom,school secretary at Reiley.
Donations were sent tothe tornado relief fund of thePottawatomie-Lincold Bap-tist Association. St. LouisFirst Baptist Church is amember church of the asso-ciation. For information onthe association and churchand tornado relief visitwww.plba.org.

The youngmen andwom-en in their late teens andearly 20s who left home toserve their country in1942became oldmen andwomenbeforememorials to theirservice were created inWashington, D.C.
In 2005, a retired AirForce captain realized thatveterans ofWorldWar II
were unlikelyto ever seetheirmemori-al on theirown andHon-or Flight wasborn, taking98,500WorldWar II veter-ans to seetheirmemori-al at absolute-ly no cost tothe veterans –and there are
still manywho are physicallyable tomake the trip, if onlyHonor Flight can locate them.Honor Flight’s mission hasexpanded to include KoreanWar veterans, andHonorFlight Tri-State needs helpfinding them aswell.
Honor Flight is a gift toveterans, a tangible way tosay thanks to themen andwomenwho put their lives onhold for years in service totheir country. These veteranswere separated from theirfamilies with only sporadicV-Mail contact – no email orSkype. No parades greetedthem; they just slipped backinto their communities andquietly built their lives.
Funding is private, andGuardians who accompanyeach veteran pay their ownway for the privilege ofspending a daywith a livinghistory treasure. In the space
of one day, these veteranshave the opportunity to sharememories with comrades-in-arms and tell their stories.
It is long past time to saythank you to themen andwomenwho served inWorldWar II andKorea. HonorFlight wants to give the giftof a trip toWashington, D.C.,to every veteran of thesewars whowould not other-wise have a chance to seetheirmemorials.
Honor Flight veteransdescribe it as “the trip of alifetime,” saying, “I wasn’tsure I wanted to go, but I am
so glad I did.” Familymem-bers tell us “this tripmadesuch a difference for Dad –he is talking about his experi-ences nowwhen he neverwould before.”Whenever weencounter anHonor Flightveteran, he never fails to tellus what a great time he had –whether the trip was lastmonth or five years ago.
AnHonor Flight is a longday for veterans from thisarea. They check in by 6 a.m.for their 8 a.m. charter. Whilein DC, they see the Iwo JimaMemorial, Air ForceMemori-al, Arlington,WorldWar II
Memorial, VietnamMemorialandKoreanWarMemorial inthe space of six or sevenhours, with time at each oneto reflect and remember.
Families and schoolgroups shake their hands andask for pictures. Active dutyservicemembers sometimesaccompany the group ontheir daylong pilgrimage.They arrive home after 10p.m., tired and exhilarated,sometimes a little cranky asthey come off the plane –until they hear and then seethe crowdwaiting at the air-port to give them the hero’swelcome they never re-ceived. They stand – or sit – alittle taller and their smilesget a little broader and tearsof joy shine not only in theireyes but also in the eyes ofthose who greet them.
Honor Flight Tri-State hasthree charters scheduled forthe rest of this year, one eachin August, September andOctober. Seats are availableforWorldWar II veterans inSeptember and October; wehave a waiting list for KoreanWar vets for next year’sflights.
Help us locate thesemenandwomen so we can givethem this thank you gift.Contact Honor Flight Tri-State at 513-277-9626 orwww.honorflighttristate.org.Applications are available atthe web address.
Deanna Beineke of Fort Thomas isanHonor Flight Ambassador. Shehas been a volunteer with HonorFlight since 2009, having served asa guardian on two flights. Alongwith her husband, Jim, she servesas ground crew chief, organizingthe welcome celebrations for eachreturning flight.

An estimated 3 to 5 millionolder adults in America werevictims of abuse in 2011. Elderabuse often occurs at home, witha family member or caregivercausing the abuse. In many in-stances, it can go undetected forsome time.

someone you know and love.Signs of elder abuse include:» Obvious malnutrition or
dehydration» Bruises that when ex-
plained do not make sense» Pain on being touched» Being isolated from friends
and familyIf you have suspicions that
elder abuse is occurring, pleasecall the 24-hour toll free hotlineat 1-800-752-6200. Calls can bemade anonymously. If you be-lieve the person is in immediatedanger, please call 911.

It is finally here summervacation, the opportunity torecharge your batteries,reconnect with family andhave some fun.
Here are some tips to helpkeep troubles at bay before,during and after time away:
Before leaving town:• Thoroughly research
your destination and associ-ated costs. Know the priceranges of the restaurants youwant to visit and the activ-ities you want to pursue, andunderstand the terms of yourrental or hotel booking.
• Set a budget based onyour research. Put asidemoney each week towardyour goal and start early.
• Look for deals. Severalorganizations offer member-ship discounts, and you mayfind additional savingsthrough your credit card, thearea’s visitors bureau, attrac-tion websites and travelsites.
• Try to be flexible ondates. It can make a big dif-
ference in thecost of lodg-ing andflights.
• Notifytrustedneighborsthat you’ll beaway andwhen youexpect toreturn. Letthem know if
you will have a house sitter.• Place a hold on your mail
and newspaper deliveries orask a friend or neighbor topick them up. You also maywant to have your yard main-tained. A pile of newspapersand an overgrown yard cansignal an empty house.
• Simulate a “lived-in”appearance by using timersfor turn lights and a radio orTV during expected hours.
• Notify your credit cardproviders of your travelplans: When you’re leaving,where you’re going and whenyou’ll return. This helps com-
panies identify fraudulentcharges if your card is usedin an area you’re not visiting.
• Do not share your travelplans on social networkingsites.
During your trip:• Make lunch, rather than
dinner, your big meal out.Prices are lower and oftenthe menu is the same.
• Take advantage ofsmartphone apps that canhelp find the best prices forgas and other savings.
• Use mobile banking appsto monitor accounts andtrack spending so you don’thave surprises when state-ments arrive. Ice cream,souvenirs and drink tabs addup fast.
• Never carry largeamounts of cash; use trav-eler’s checks or credit cards.
• Take only your driver’slicense/official ID and twocredit cards: One to carry,another to lock in a safe incase your wallet is stolen.
• Don’t access financial
data or personal informationon public computers or pub-lic Wi-Fi networks. Be cau-tious when accessing a hotelroom Internet connection.
• If you use an ATM,choose one inside a bank.Well-lit lobbies with securitycameras, bank employeesand customers provide moresecurity for you and for theATM, meaning it is less like-ly to be a tampering target.
When You Return:• Let friends and family
know you’re home.• Get your mail. Open it
and electronic mail promptlyto address bills or other ur-gent matters.
• Continue to monitor youraccounts. Check statementsto make sure nothing is outof place. If you notice some-thing unusual or fraudulent,contact your provider imme-diately.

I’m not saying I havethe world’s best memory,but when it comes tofood, I have a photo-graphic memory.
Like the other daywhen I was goingthrough one of my vin-tage cookbooks and cameacross a recipe for cinna-
mon pin-wheels.After read-ing therecipe, Ihad a feel-ing theseare the“radiorolls” thatwere avail-able inbakeries
here. It’s not the one thatuses puff pastry. Thisrecipe calls for a yeasteddough that you form intocoils and flatten out be-fore baking. I think it’sthe same roll recipe thatmany of you wanted tomake at home. It’s toolong to print here, but I’llpost it on my blog.
Ham and basilpinwheels
If you’re growingbasil, it won’t be longbefore flowers start toform. Pinch those off(yes, they’re edible) andwhile you’re at it, cut offenough leaves to makethese pinwheels. This is ado-ahead appetizer thatkeeps appetites at bayuntil the main dish isserved.
6 10-inch flour tortillas8 oz. cream cheese, softened3⁄4 cup sun-dried tomatoes,minced
12 thin slices hamFresh basil, enough to cover
tortillas
Mix cream cheese anddried tomatoes. Spreadeach tortilla with creamcheese mixture. Put hamslices on top. Lay basil ontop. Roll up tightly andstick toothpicks in 4-5evenly spaced spots.Cover and refrigerate forseveral hours. Slice andserve.
Marinated honeymustard grilledveggie skewers
The honey mustardlends a nice color.
4 long skewers
Whisk together:
3 tablespoons whitebalsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons honeymustard
3 tablespoons olive oil3⁄4 teaspoon crushed driedrosemary or about 2teaspoons fresh, minced
3⁄4 teaspoon onion powderSalt and pepper
Have ready:
1 red bell pepper, cut into11⁄2-inch pieces1 yellow andgreen zucchini, about 8 oz.each, cut into 1⁄2-inch thickslices
If using wooden skew-ers, soak in water 30minutes ahead of time.
Put veggies in plastic bagand pour marinade over.Let sit at room temper-ature 30 minutes ormore. Thread onto skew-ers, reserving marinade.Grill, turning occasional-ly and brushing withmarinade until tender,about 15 minutes.
Savory pork roastHowmany times have
I told you one of the mostfun things about writingthis column is the recipesyou share? Marianne D.shared her favorite reci-pe for pork roast with meand said: “The ranchdressing mix is the se-cret ingredient and it’s
diabetic friendly, too.Sometimes I’ll toss in alittle minced fresh pars-ley.”
2-3 tablespoons olive oil1 tablespoon ranch saladdressingmix
2 teaspoons Dijonmustard1 clove garlic, mincedSalt and pepper to taste21⁄2 pound boneless pork loinroast
1 cup chicken broth or water
Preheat oven to 350degrees. Mix oil, dress-ing, mustard, garlic, saltand pepper. Rub all overroast. Put roast in bakingpan and pour brotharound roast. Bake aboutan hour, or until ther-
mometer reads 150 de-grees. Remove fromoven, tent with foil andlet sit 10 minutes. Serves8.
Diabetic exchanges: 4lean meat, 1/2 fat.
Tips from readers’kitchens
Opera cream cake. Somany of you told me youloved the cake. SuzanneM. said she used a 9-inchby 13-inch pan, baked itat 375 degrees for a fewextra minutes. So if youdon’t have a jellyroll panthat the original recipecalls for, a 9-inch by 13-inch works well.

Home warranty ser-vice contracts are a $3billion a year business,but you need to know thedrawbacks as well as theadvantages.
For instance, you canexpect many warrantycompanies to do the leastexpensive repair pos-sible.
Home warranties havebecome fairly standardwith real estate sales. Butwhile it can give a buyerpeace of mind, I’ve seentime and again wherethere’s been a problemwhen a claim was filed.
Terri Miller said herdaughter ran into a claimproblemwhen the airconditioning went out inher Reading home. “Theair conditioning fan went
out. Weturned theunit on andit didn’tturn at all,”Miller said.
Miller’sdaughterbought ahome war-ranty whenbuying the
house last year after ithad been foreclosedupon. She called the war-ranty company and arepairman was sent out.“He immediately lookedat the unit and told me itwas a fan motor. ‘We’re inluck, I have it on mytruck. I’ll go change itout,’ he said,” Miller said.
Unfortunately, therepairman couldn’t sep-arate the fan from themotor so he removedboth – with the electricitystill on. “He left the unitcompletely wide open. He
left the electric panelwide open. When I askedhim if that was safe hetold me, ‘Yes.’ I found outlater frommy husband itwas not safe,” Miller said.
The serviceman didn’treturn for two days.Then, Miller said, “Whenhe rewired it, rather thanturning the motor itselfanother quarter inch sohe could run the electricthrough the conduit inthere, which would be theappropriate thing to do,he chose to put the wiresabove the unit and he hasthem zip-tied.”
Miller sent a picture ofthe job to the home war-ranty company and itagreed to send out a dif-ferent company to prop-erly wire the air condi-tioner.
“The air conditionerdoes work. It is coolingthe house. The problem isthe wiring, the way they
installed the wiring. It’snot safe,” Miller said.
A big thing to remem-ber with home warrantycompanies is you can’tpick the repair compa-nies they send to yourhome. Sometimes you’llget a good, well qualifiedrepairman, other timesyou won’t.
Check the warranty tosee exactly what it doesand does not cover. Onewoman told me althoughthe warranty companygave her a new air condi-tioner, she ended up pay-ing the serviceman $1,500for labor.
These warrantiesgenerally cost about $400a year and have a $100deductible for each re-pair.

As we scrape uneatenfood into the trash canafter a meal or throwaway moldy bread thatwe just didn’t get aroundto eating, we may notsee that wasted food aswasted money. But infact, that’s just what itis.
The U.S. Departmentof Agriculture (USDA)recently reported thatthe amount of uneatenfood in American homesand restaurants in 2008was valued at about $390per U.S. consumer. Thisis more than the averageAmerican spends onfood each month.
Not only is wastedfood hard on our wallets,it is hard on the environ-ment. Each type of foodrequires soil, nutrients,water or energy to grow,process and transport. Itis also filling up our
landfills.In 2010,about 33milliontons offood wastewas sent tolandfills.Foodwaste isthe largesttype ofmunicipal
solid waste put into land-fills, outpacing paper,plastic, aluminum cansand glass.
Fortunately, you canreduce food waste byplanning. Here are sometips:
» Plan your meals forthe week and make shop-ping list. Shop your pan-try for the ingredientsyou need before going tothe grocery store. Plannot only the menu itemsbut the amounts of food
you plan to serve.» Buy only what you
need. Purchasing itemsin bulk can reduce pack-aging, but make sureyou can store and usethe items before theyexpire.
» Think portion size.Consider sharing anentrée at a restaurant orordering off the kidsmenu to get a smallerportion size. Plan to takeextra food home withfood safety in mind.
» If you have foodthat you know is going toexpire before you caneat it, consider sharingwith friends and neigh-bors. Or, if possible,freeze the items forlonger storage and lateruse.
» Eat leftovers oftenand include their use inyour meal plan.
» Compost food
scraps. Many foods canbe safely composted,including fruits, vegeta-bles, nut shells, egg-shells, tea bags and cof-fee grounds. But dairyproducts, fats, oils,grease, meats and fishbones should not be com-posted as they can at-tract rodents and pro-
duce odors as they de-compose.
The USDA and U.S.Environmental Protec-tion Agency recentlylaunched the U.S. FoodWaste Challenge in aneffort to reduce foodwaste and help familiesin need. For more in-formation about the
challenge and ways toreduce food waste, viewtheir website:http://bit.ly/foodwast.

Question: Many ofthe leaves of my peachtree are turning red andcurling and twisting.Some are falling off thetree. Could this be fromsomething my lawn careservice sprayed to killweeds in my yard?
Answer: Some of thesymptoms you mentionare similar to thosecaused by herbicidedrift, but since you areseeing these symptomson a peach tree, it ismore likely due to anair-borne fungus, whichcauses a disease calledpeach leaf curl.
Peach leaf curl oc-curs annually on peach-es in commercial or-chards as well as in thehome landscape and cancause severe defolia-tion, weakened trees,and reduced fruit qual-ity, set and yield. Peach-es, apricots and nectar-ines are all susceptible.A similar disease,known as plum pockets,occurs on wild and culti-vated plums. Althoughleaf curl and plum pock-ets are springtime dis-eases, controls are bestapplied in the fall.
The disease is mostnoticeable on the leaveswithin a month afterbloom and is easily rec-ognized by the thick-ened, folded, puckered,
and curledleafblades.Symptomsmay bepresent onthe entireleaf or juston parts ofthe leaf,and areusuallyaccompa-
nied by a red or purplishcoloration, making themespecially conspicuous.
In some cases, everyleaf on a tree may beinfected. The diseasedareas may develop apowdery gray coatingand leaves may thenturn brown, wither, anddrop from the tree.Yearly defoliation re-sulting from peach leafcurl or plum pockets canseriously weaken thetrees and make themmore sensitive to coldinjury. .
Springtime rain andtemperatures between50 and 70 degrees arenecessary for infection.
Peach varieties de-rived from Redhavenhave some tolerance toleaf curl whereas Red-skin types are moresusceptible. Where leafcurl has occurred, thinfruit heavily to reducedemand on remainingleaves and reduce
drought stress by peri-odic irrigation. Treesshowing symptomsshould be provided withgood growing conditionsto counteract the stressof leaf loss due to peachleaf curl.
A single spray offungicide containingactive ingredients suchas chlorothalonil, copperhydroxide, copper oxy-chloride sulfate, coppersulfate + hydrated lime(Bordeaux mixture) orziram, if applied in latefall or very early springbefore bud swell, willprovide nearly perfectcontrol and preventionof peach leaf curl. Thereare no fungicides capa-ble of controlling thisdisease once infectionhas occurred.

Do you often strugglewith decisions? Most ofus do. Decisions regard-ing jobs, schools, vaca-tions, moves, kid’s fu-ture etc., keep many ofus awake at night won-dering which path is theright one for us and ourfamilies.
My own family hasbeen faced with many ofthe above decisionswithin the last year.
Although, I’velearned many thingsabout God through theprocess of change andtransformation twothings stand out for me:
» You must step outon faith. I’ve often madethe mistake of waitingfor God to “strike therock” or “part the sea”before I make a move. I
want tobe 100-percentsure he’sspeakingto meand notmyneighboror thepersonnext tome in the
pew at church.In the recent months
I’ve discovered that partof growing in our rela-tionship with God re-quires us to step out onblind faith. A “get out ofthe boat” mentality, thatshows God we trust himto lead and guide oursteps; no matter howscary or “out in leftfield” the direction may
seem.» The second and
very important lessonI’ve learned is that Godis already there. What-ever path I choose, Godis already there. Healready knows my fu-ture. He planned it longago. Isaiah 25:1 puts it soeloquently; “O Lord, Iwill honor and praiseyour name, for you aremy God. You do suchwonderful things, youplanned them long ago.”
What a relief forthose of us (yours trulyincluded) in the midst ofgut-wrenching decisionstoday. God is alreadythere and waiting.
It reminds me of themany vacations my hus-band, children and Ihave taken with my par-
ents over the last dozenor so years. Whether itwas Gulf Shores or Myr-tle Beach, we traveledseparately and part ofthe thrill and excitementfor me, aside from thebeautiful beaches andwarm weather, wasknowing that my parentswere already there,scoping out the bestcampsites and makingthe preparations for usto arrive. As we ap-proached from our longjourney, we would findthem sitting outsidetheir camper, smiles ontheir faces, a cold drink,a bite to eat, and a wel-come hug.
God is doing thesame. Wherever yourjourney takes you, he isalready there. He has
scoped out the situationand made the prepara-tions for your arrival.He has just one questionfor you; “Will you get outof the boat?”
May you be encour-aged by another versethis week, as you workto make the best deci-sions for you family:“For we are God’s mas-terpiece. He has createdus anew in Christ Jesus,so we can do the goodthings He planned for uslong ago.” (Ephesians2:10)

FORT WRIGHT — BobClements put his wholeheart into everything hedid, whether it was run-ning amarathon, teachingchildren about history orpromoting his beloved
James A. Ramage CivilWar Museum.
Almost a year after hissudden death, all three ofthose things will come to-gether in Clements’ honorin August during BatteryHooper Days, the Mu-seum’s Civil War livinghistory experience.
Lori Clements, Bob’swidow, hopes to start theRun for History 5k Run/Walk on Sunday, Aug. 18,the second day of BatteryHooper Days this year.
“I think this would bean awesome way to keepBob’s memory alive,” shesaid.
She also said she ex-pects the event to helpfund student scholarshipsand teacher grants to helpcreate history days at lo-cal schools, invite guestlecturers and sponsorfield trips.
Clements presentedherplan toMayorJoeNie-naber and theFortWrightCity Council along withStevePrescott of Prescott
Race Coordination andKathleen Romero of theRamageMuseum Board.
Council’s approval wasnot needed to move for-ward with race planning,but Nienaber said city de-partments would workwithClements tohelp cre-ate a safe route for theevent.
Theywill take into con-sideration traffic pat-terns and neighborhoodevents, as the race is ex-pected to begin and end atthe museum, located at1402 Highland Ave.
Nienaber called therace idea “all good mojo”for the city and the mu-seum, and was happy toassist in creating the
event in Clements’ honor.“Bob did a tremendous
amount for the museum,”he said. “His efforts don’tgo unrecognized by thecouncil or the staff or thecitizens of Fort Wright.”

A little more than 34percent of Kentuckiansare covered by localsmoke-free laws that bansmoking in workplacesand enclosed publicplaces or buildings opento the public, state tobac-co prevention and cessa-tion officials told statelawmakers today.
Those Kentuckianslive or work in 23 munici-palities with comprehen-sive smoke-free ordi-nances that ban smokingin allworkplaces andpub-licareasorfacilities,Ken-tucky Tobacco Preven-tion and Cessation Pro-gramofficialAngelaCris-well told the TobaccoSettlement AgreementFund Oversight Commit-tee. The municipalitiesare among 37 local gov-ernments statewide, in-cluding Louisville Metro
and the Lexington-Fayette Urban Countygovernment, covered byeither a comprehensivesmoke-free ordinance orsome degree of smoke-free regulation, accord-ing to the Kentucky To-bacco Policy ResearchProgram.
Smoke-free ordinanc-es limit exposure to sec-ondhand smoke, whichCriswell said can triggerasthma attacks, causelung disease, and de-crease the heart’s abilityto pump blood leading toheart disease or heart at-tack.
“There is no safeamount of secondhandsmoke,” she said.
Criswell’s 13-year-oldprogram is funded in partwith Kentucky’s share ofthe 1998 Master Settle-ment Agreement, amulti-billion-dollar settlementreached between 46states, including Ken-tucky, and the nation’scigarette companies. Theprogram received $2.12million in tobacco settle-mentdollars in fiscal year2013and isbudgeted to re-ceive $2.09 million in to-bacco settlement funds infiscal year 2014 which be-gins July 1, Criswell said.
About 80percent of theprogram’s tobacco settle-ment funding is allocatedto local health depart-ments for tobacco cessa-tion and prevention pro-gramming and to covertobacco coordinatorcosts, she said.
In response to a ques-tion from Rep. Jonathan
Shell, R-Lancaster, stateHealth Programs Branchmanager and former To-bacco Prevention andCessation Program man-ager Irene Centers saidthe state’s smoking ratedroppedfrom32to25per-cent between 2000 (whenthe Tobacco Preventionand Cessation Programwasestablished)and2010.Some of the credit for thedecrease is owed to Ken-tucky’s “quit line”—1-800-QUIT-NOW—whichsmokers can call to re-ceive counseling on howto kick the habit, althoughCriswell said additionalfundingforNRT(nicotinereplacement therapy) forsmokers could improvethe state’s “quit successrate” significantly.
With additional NRTfunding, Criswell indicat-ed that Kentucky’s cur-rent quit success rate of26 percent—which shesaid is above the nationalaverage—could reach 40percent. NRT is now be-ing offered through theprogram for a limitedtime with funding assis-tance from the federalCenters for Disease Con-trol and Prevention(CDC), she said.
“We see that (addition-al funding) as a very realneed,” she said.
Committee co-chairSen. Paul Hornback, R-Shelbyville, praised theprogram’s work. “You areto be commended for therecognition you’re get-ting because of how wellyour programs are do-ing,” he said.
