FIRST CHURCH HOSTS AN ‘OLD KENTUCKY CHRISTMAS’ By Stephanie Salmons [email protected] HEBRON — With the new Con- ner High School gymnasium ren- ovations complete, school leaders wanted to honor the man who started it all. At half time of the Dec. 7 game between Conner and Boone Coun- ty High School, the new gym floor was dedicated to Bill Warfield, the school’s first boys basketball coach. Warfield coached the team from the time the school opened in 1970 until 1992 and was instru- mental in getting the program off the ground, said Mike Blevins. Blevins, now the chief operating officer for Boone County Schools, served as an assistant coach un- der Warfield. “He built it from nothing,” Ble- vins said. In Conner’s first year, the gym wasn’t completed until January, and Warfield worked out an agreement with the contractors to allow him and his players to lay down the wood of a section of the gym floor so that they’d always treasure that gym, Blevins said. “They had a hand in building the floor of that gymnasium,” he said. Warfield made sure his play- ers shared the same passion for Conner that he did, Blevins said. “Conner High School was what it was all about for him,” he said. Warfield died a few years ago, but his legacy at Conner live on. Jim Hicks coaches the team now and played for Warfield in high school. “A lot of the things he taught me as a player I try to teach my players,” Hicks said. Hicks helped start the process to name the gym floor after War- field. “We needed to honor Coach Warfield,” Hicks said. As part of the naming ceremo- ny, Hicks asked Buck Akin to lead the event. “He was the announcer for many, many years for Coach War- field,” Hicks said. Conner gym honors first coach By Justin B.

volunteer so we definitelyneed volunteers,” Bohmansaid.

Boone County CASA isalso asking the communityto support its annual ap-peal, which has a goal of$10,000.

FamilyCourt JudgeLin-

da Bramlage said CASAvolunteers help her makedeterminations aboutwhat’s best for children in-volved in abuse or neglectcases.

It helps tohave“anotherset of eyes for the childrenin the courtroom,” she said.

“I am extremely happythey are here in this coun-ty,” she said. There are nocourt appointed special ad-vocates in Gallatin County,

which is also in her juris-diction, and “it’s a huge dif-ference.”

In Boone County CASAvolunteers go to the fam-ilies’ homes and reportback to the court. “Some-times the reports are notthe same as the (Cabinetfor Health and Family Ser-vices) reports. I have to lis-ten to (both) andmake a de-termination based on that,”Bramlage said.

CASA volunteers arevery dedicated and havemore time to spend withthe family than the state’sprotective services em-ployees. “Theymight be in-clined to see things,”Bramlage said.

With the volunteer’stimeand ties to thecommu-nity, they can come upwithsolutions that help childrenstay in the home and keepfamilies together.

In one case of an ex-tremelydirtyhouse,Bram-lage said children were al-most removed from thehome. The mother justcouldn’t keep the houseclean.

But CASA stepped in tofind churches to help outand got volunteers to paintthehouseandclean thecar-pet.

“The kids were able tostay in the house,” Bram-lage said.

According to Bohman,“We don’t remove kids be-cause of poverty but in onesituation we had a family

that was homeless basical-ly and the kids had to be re-moved.”

Increasing drug use inBoone County, especiallywith the rise of heroin, alsoaffects children. Bohmanestimated that in nine of 10cases CASA volunteers areinvolved in, there is somerelationship to drugs.

SomeofCASA’s fundingis also provided by BooneCounty Fiscal Court andgrants. It also benefitsfrom a golf outing andCharity Night at the Tablesat Turfway Park.

appeal, mail donations toBoone County CASA,2989 Washington Square,Burlington, KY 41005.For information about

F rom where GaylRotsching stands, ev-erything is back on

track for the 67th season ofthe Duke Energy HolidayTrains.

Howso?Hehasnewsto-ries to tell.

His new train talescame from chatting withvisitors last year at his postby the control panel of therevered display he consid-ers to be “the essence ofCincinnati.”

To him, “the trains,” aslearned locals call them,“are about history” as wellas “tradition, little kids,Christmas, family and gen-erations of families. It’s notunusual to see four genera-tions of one family come to-gether. When these trainsopen for the season, theysignal that the holidays inCincinnati have arrived.”

Last year at this time,Rotsching and other Cin-cinnatians familiar withthe trains that first pulledinto theDowntown lobbyofthe old Cincinnati Gas &Electric Co. building in1946, were not so sure thetradition could be main-tained in its new home.

The layouthadmoved tothe Cincinnati MuseumCenter at Union Terminal.Many feared that with themove the spell, the magicof the trains,whichhaveat-tracted 9.15million visitorsover the years, had beenbroken.

“It was a big change,”Rotsching admitted. “AndCincinnatians don’t liketheir traditions to change.”

That showed at the turn-stile. Attendance plungedfrom 300,000 in 2010, the

last year the trains wereseen for freeDowntown, to150,000 in 2011, the trains’first year, with an admis-sion charge, at the termi-nal.

As the SpringfieldTownship railroad buffspoke, he stood in the dis-play’s new observationdeck, which resembles arailroadyard’s control tow-er. Fromthisvantagepoint,Rotsching took in the trainshehasseeneveryyear theyhave been on display – thefirst 32 as a visitor and thelast 35 as a trainmasterwhile a Duke employee,then a retiree and now avolunteer.

“Going to that big, oldGas &Electric Co. art-decobuilding at Fourth andMain was part of the tradi-tion, too. But now, thetrains’ visitors are going toone of the art-deco trea-sures of the world,”

Rotsching said. “I getchoked up when I say this.Union Terminal is one ofworld’s greatest railroadstations and an art-decomasterpiece.”

Last year, Rotschingworked hard to break theice with visitors. “Theycame in quietly, like theywere in reverence.”

Rotsching felt that thetrains were not used to thequiet. After all, they’re notyour typical museumpieces. They make noisechugging around a lavishlydecorated and highly de-tailed display. Plus, theyare maintained by histori-ans such asRotsching, a fa-ther of four and a self-de-scribed 70-year-old kid.

“I just started grabbingpeople and telling themabout the trains,” he said.“That made it fun for me. Iwas used to people comingup to me at Fourth and

Main.”Six years ago, a man

asked Rotsching if his 8-year-old nephew couldtouch one of the engines.

“That’sano-no,”Rotsch-ing replied, “based on thetrains’ history, their ageand their one-of-a-kind sta-tus.”

The uncle whispered,“My nephew is blind.”

Say no more. Rotschinglifted a black steam enginefrom a side track andplaced it on the railing be-tween thecontrolpanelanda swarm of visitors.

“That youngman slowlymoved his hand over thetop of the engine. He toldme about every part ingreat detail,” Rotsching re-called. “He knew how a lo-comotive was made, how itworked. His uncle hadtaught him. They went tothe Bellevue, Ky., yard tohear and feel the trains’

rumble.”Rotsching wiped his

hand over his mouth.“The stories about these

little kids chokeme up,” hesaid.Then, he added: “I livefor this timeof theyearandthechance to see their littlefaces.”

And listen to what theyhave to say.

Rotsching recalled anencounter from 2011, prov-ing the trains’ new homehas begun to develop itsown series of stories. Five-year-old Eli Wilkening ranup to him lastNovember ashe adjusted the trains’ con-trols.

“Guess what I’m goingto get for Christmas,” Elicalled out.

Rotsching asked him ifithad“anythingtodowithatrain.”

Eli beamed and an-

nounced: “Santa is going tobring me a train.”

Rotsching wondered:“Have you been good?”

Eli replied: “Oh, yes!”This routinewas repeat-

ed over the next month. Eliand his younger brotherare home-schooled by theirmom in Clifton. Theymakeweekly trips to the termi-nal.

“Two days after Christ-mas,” Rotsching said.“This little boy comes run-ning up to me again andsays: ‘You’ll never guesswhat I got for Christmas.’”

Before Rotsching couldguess, the boy blurted out:“I got my train.”

He had something forRotsching: A drawing ofhis gift, with a caption:“This is the train.” And onthe back two words:“Thank you.”

Because of the popular-ity of the walking pathconstructedalongwith thenewly opened Aero Park-way, Boone County hasprovided a place for resi-dents to park.

“We have provided aparking lot for use of thatpedestrian path,” countyengineer Greg Sketchsaid.

The gravel lot is locat-ednearZigZagConnector,which connects Zig ZagRoad and Aero Parkway.

“Wehavesomesignsdi-recting people to it,” hesaid. “We’re trying to getpeople to use that. There’sno parking in the futureconnecting road pull-offs,so we’re just encouragingpeople to use that parkingarea.”

According to Sketch, itwas a construction lot andit was determined towardthe end of the road con-struction period that therewould be a need for park-ing “because we alreadysawusage of thepath afterit was put in.”

It was a spot thatworked well and could ac-cess the path easily.

Commissioner CharlieWalton agreed with theneed for parking but saidthere are some nearbyresidents concerned “thatit’s right there where peo-ple have access viewinginto their home and a num-ber of safety concernsthat they have.”

In response to ques-tions from Walton, Sketchsaid signs will be postedthat there will be no over-night parking – a countyordinance.

“We’ll be patrolling thearea to make sure there’sno overnight parking. ”

According to CountyAdministrator Jeff Early-wine, the judge-execu-tive’s office has receivedcalls expressing con-cerns.

The county wants to bea good neighbor, he said,“and to that end, we’ve gota duty to monitor and po-lice the area to make surethat we don’t have issueswith overnight vehicles,trash or litter or that sortof thing, so we’re willingto be a good neighbor.”

The county had alsoplanned to repave the lot,but decided to forgo thatrepaving.

“We don’t want to pre-judge it andassume it’s go-ing to work forever, so weleft it as gravel, so that insix months or a year, if wehave to look back and say‘well, we haven’t been agood neighbor,’ or therehave been other problemscrop up, that the taxpay-ers won’t lose by pullingup a new paved parkinglot,” Earlywine said.“We’ll just be pulling outgravel, most of which hasbeen there for two years,supporting a constructiontrailer.”

Commissioner MattDedden said after lookingat the area, he didn’t thinkit’s the best location for aparking area.

Aero parking a concernBy Stephanie [email protected]

Dr. Heidi Murleyhadn’t seen this particulartumor in this particular lo-cation before.

Located in the under-arm of her female patient,the granular cell tumorwas lodged near a criticalnerve.

Murley removed thebenign tumor fromherpa-tient at St. ElizabethHealthcare, but remainsconcerned.

“I’m sure there are mi-croscopic tumor cells leftthere on that nerve,” saidMurley, a general surgeonat St. Elizabeth.

So Murley has request-ed an electronic consult-

ing session with a doctorat the Mayo Clinic, theworld-renowned healthsystem in Minnesota.

The session is availablebecause St. Elizabeth isone of only 10 members ofthe new Mayo ClinicHealth Care Network.

St. Elizabeth, one of thefour big health systems inthis region and a near mo-nopoly in Northern Ken-tucky after its acquisitionseveral years ago of rivalSt. Luke Hospitals, is theexclusive Mayo partnerhere.

That boosts its effortstoattractpatientsanddoc-tors that otherwise mighthave gone to Cincinnati’sbiggest health systems.

St. Elizabeth paid an

undisclosed fee to join thenetwork but said patientswill not pay any more be-cause of the partnership.

For that fee, its doctorsand patients will get ac-cess not only to the consul-tations,butalsoadatabaseof clinical advice, theMayo Clinic research andits “innovation center” onhow to design all aspectsof the patient’s experi-ence.

When they order an“eConsult,” doctors herewill create an electronicmedical record at theMayo Clinic, to be re-viewed by the doctorthere.

The review normallywill take a couple of days.

BRIEFLY

FLORENCE — On a typi-cal Sunday business ispretty slow at the Ameri-can Legion Boone Post 4while neighboring bars arepacked.

A big reason for this isbecauseFlorence’s currentalcoholic beverage controlregulations keep the postfrom selling distilled spir-its and wine on Sundays.

In order to serve drinks

on Sunday in Florence, abusiness must have diningfacilities with a minimumseating of 100 people at ta-bles and at least half of thebusiness’s annual gross in-come must come from thesale of food – neither ofwhich apply to the Ameri-can Legion.

Post commander MikeMoses is lobbying to getFlorence’s restrictionsloosened.

“I’ve beenhuntingdowna loophole for two years,”Moses said.

Because the restric-tions are limited to Flor-ence, many American Le-gion regularswould just goto posts in Kenton Countyon Sundays, he said.

“Five miles down theroad we have anotherAmerican Legion that canserve alcohol on Sundays,”

Moses said.Moseshasbeenworking

with city coordinator RickLunnemann to get the re-strictions removed.

“Kentucky state law al-lows us to make somechanges,” Lunnemannsaid.

Lunnemann recom-mended City Council voteto amend the city’s Code ofOrdinance to strike thoseregulations.

“This changes nothingelse. It changes no timesfor alcohol sales restric-tions on Sundays,” saidMayor Diane Whalen.

Council was scheduledto vote on the first of tworeadings to amend the re-strictions Dec. 11.

Moses is “ecstatic” athow receptive council hasbeen to the changes, hesaid.

NEWPORT — Brian De-laney has little room tomove inside his green andbrown minivan.

Plastic containers, withlabels describing clothingfor different age groups,crowd the interior of hisvehicle as he waits for it tobe emptied in a Newportparking lot.

In eight days the mini-van has traveled 1,200miles, sometimes full tothe brim, picking up or de-livering donations.

In only eight days theErlanger resident hasreached out to more than150 needy families by in-

viting them to post in theFacebook group “Helpingneedy families forChristmas.”

“They go on to our Face-book and they’ll write ‘insearch of’ what they’relooking for their children,”Delaney said. He investi-gates the posters’ profilesto make sure they’re notscammers.

After that help pours infromhis resources, includ-ing his own closet and veryfull shed.

With the help of volun-teers like ElizabethHainesand Brandy Mort, Delaneythen figures out a way toget presents to people.

He sets up meetingtimes and places to distrib-ute items, careful to sug-gest recipients park awayfrom stores, since hedoesn’t want to cause anytrouble, he said.

Cynthia Scales, of Alex-andria, approaches Dela-ney’s car for a containerwith clothing.

“My daughter askedmewho I was talking to,”Scales said of her initialcall to Delaney. “I said ‘I’mtalking to Santa.’”

The pregnant mom offour needs some help get-tinggifts for theholiday, soshe contacted him. Theother day, she got a ridingtoy for her 20-month-oldchild through the Face-book group.

“I’m here for toys andsweats for my last monthof pregnancy,” Scales said.

The matching processis helping Grace Maute ofFortMitchell in a differentway.

She’s young, pregnantand staying at the Madon-naHouse ofNorthernKen-tucky until her child isborn. The Madonna Houserequires her to volunteerlocally, so she decided tohelp Delaney.

“I had stuff to give, so Idonated all of my daugh-ter’s old clothes,” Mautesaid.

Delaney’s Facebookgroup had 378 members asof Dec. 7, most looking forsome relief this holidayseason.

Several emails to theRecorder, suchasone from

Megan Hill of Southgate,called him the “SantaClaus of Northern Ken-tucky.” He’s helping resi-dents because he was intheir shoes last year.

“The reasonwhy I start-ed this is because last yearI needed help,” said Dela-ney, who is disabled. “Wefell flat on our face.”

The memories causehim to tear up while wait-ing for more people tocomeandpickup their pre-sents.

“The thing is that allgood luck comes in ten-fold,” he says, voice quiv-ering. “Five people helpedus last year. Our goal was50 people. Now it’s up to158.”

FRANKFORT — North-ern Kentucky’s state leg-islative delegation willhave two members in theleadership of the Ken-tucky Senate.

The Kentucky SenateRepublican Caucus onNov. 27 elected State Sen.

DamonThayer, R-George-town, asRepubli-can floorleader andre-electedState Sen.KatieStine, R-

Southgate, to her positionas Senate president protem. The current Senatefloor leader, Sen. RobertStivers, R-Manchester,will succeed David Wil-liams as Senate president.

TheRepublican caucustook about three hours toelect its leadership butwouldn’t divulge the votetotals. The full Senatemust still approve theelections when it con-venes in January, butmany expect it will sincethe Republicans controlthe chamber.

Stine welcomed anoth-er Northern Kentuckyrepresentative at the lead-ership table. “It will benice to have somebodyelse sitting at the last step

of the budget besides justmyself,” said Stine, whohas served as Senatepresident pro tem since2005 and ran unopposedfor the position this time.“So that will be a definiteadvantage.”

Thayer’s district in-cludes southern KentonCounty and Grant County.As floor leader, he willserve as spokesman forthe party’s position on is-sues and schedule busi-ness on the floor of theSenate.

“We have to recognizethe fact thatwearehere tocraft policy for the entirestate,” Thayer said. “Ithink Northern Kentuckyhas done quite well withthe members from the re-gion who serve in the Sen-ate.

“I also represent cen-tral Kentucky as well andlive in central Kentucky.... I do think it showsNorthern Kentucky hashad a lot of increase of in-fluence over the last 10years.”

Williams’ appointmentin November by Gov.

Steve Beshear to a circuitcourt judgeship led tojockeying by Republicansenators for leadershipopenings.

The senators didn’tspeculate on how the newleadership will affect spe-cific issues. Stivers saidthere will be differencesin style fromWilliams butnot in core beliefs.

“We all have differentstyles,” Stivers said. “Peo-plewill have to draw judg-ments based on how theysee I work with DamonThayer versus the wayDavidworkedwithme. ... Ithink the people know thatDavidand Ihavedifferingstyles, but this core grouphere, we have the samecore beliefs.”

Williams and Gov.Steve Beshear had a con-tentious relationship, andtension ran high after Be-shear defeated Williamsin the 2011 gubernatorialrace. Stivers said the Sen-ate wants dialogue withboth sides but wouldn’tsay how the new Senateleadership will differfrom the old one.

Burr Travis, who is repre-senting Trzop. “The cir-cumstances will ultimatelyshow that Mr. Trzop had nopersonal benefit per sefrom anything that was in-volved here.”

Travis told DistrictJudge Guy Hart that hisclient also wanted to forgoa preliminary hearing andwaive the case to theBooneCounty grand jury. Thegrand jury could take upthe case this week.

Trzop, who attended thehearing with his wife anddaughter, did not commentafter court.

“Mr. Trzop is a verygoodman. I think he’s beengood for the community,”Travis said, “and as I un-derstand it hasdoneagreat

job for the public, both as amayor and in his other po-sition.”

Sheriff’s investigatorssaid theydeterminedabout$34,000 in metal wasscrapped between January2009 and November of thisyear. After questioningTrzop, roughly $10,000 infunds was still unaccount-ed for.

Trzop was releasedfrom theBooneCounty Jailafter posting 10 percent ofa $20,000 property bond,which was reduced froman initial $50,000 cashbond.

After his arrest, theWa-ter District Board voted tosuspendTrzopwithout pay.Trzop, who was sworn in asmayor six days after theelection, has said he willnot resign from that office.He is scheduled to serveuntil the end of 2014.

The charge of abuse ofpublic trust is a Class C fel-ony, which carries a maxi-mum sentence of 10 yearsin prison. According toKentucky Revised Stat-utes, the office of mayorwould be vacated if Trzoppleads guilty to, or is con-victed of, a felony.

FLORENCE — DorothyFreeman’s legacy is on a lotof children’s heads.

Freeman, 81, of Flor-ence, recently turned in348 hats she’s knitted toHope Ministries.

Freeman started knit-ting about four years agoafter shemoved inwith herdaughter Debbie Hunter.

“She was trying to getme something to do,” Free-man said.

After trying a few dif-ferent hobbies, knittingjust clicked.

Freeman quickly ranout of friends and familymembers to give hats, andshe began looking for waysher talent could help oth-ers.

“I wanted to do some-thing for the little ones,”Freeman said.

Freeman started knit-

ting hats for infants andchildren and donatingthem to Care Net Pregnan-cyServices inFlorenceandHope Ministries’ Childrenof Hope Christmas Party.

Theparty, scheduledforDec. 8, provides Christmasgifts for 31 adopted fam-ilies and each child is givena coat, gloves and a hand-made hat knitted by Free-man.

“What a saint she is,”said Jackie Shelton, direc-tor of Hope Ministries.

Freeman’s tirelessworkmeans it’s one more thingeach child can get to have agreat Christmas, Sheltonsaid.

After seeing the facesofthechildrenwhogothats atlastyear’sChristmasparty,Freeman was eager to getback to work to make surethere were plenty of hats

this year.“My favorite part was

having the little boys say‘Thank you Miss Dorothyformyhat,’” Freeman said.

Knitting that many hatshas become a labor of lovefor Freeman. She usuallycan finish about four infanthats or two child hats in aday. Once she starts, shemay occasionally pause toglance at the TV, but shejustkeepsworking,Huntersaid.

“That’s all she does allthe time,” she said.

Of course making anddonating that many hatshas gainedFreemana lot ofattention, but that was nev-erwhatshewas lookingfor.

“I don’t do it for the hon-or, I do it for my Lord,”Freeman said.

BURLINGTON — With a littlehelp, Thanksgiving dinner hap-pened for many families.

The Burlington ElementaryFamily Resource Center gaveaway all the food needed for aThanksgiving dinner for morethan 50 families in the theschool’s community.

“It’s agreat feeling,” saidJen-nifer Hater, who leads the re-source center.

The center has given outThanksgiving meals since it wasfoundedmore than a decade ago,but as time goes on, more fam-ilies are looking for help, Hatersaid.

“Each year the number offamilies in need grows. This isour biggest year,” she said.

Much of the food is providedfrom the school’s students andtheir families.

“We have a donation here atschool,” said Mary Biddle, who

volunteers in the family re-source center.

As the demand has risen, theusual donation just wasn’tenough to provide for everyonein need this year, Biddle said.

“The supplies just weren’tthere,” she said.

To make sure everyone couldget a meal, the center got somehelp. Boone County PublicWorks donated the turkeys and

the Sons of the American LegionSquadron 4, based in Florence,pitched in with several bags ofgroceries.

Thanks to the money raisedthrough their Halloween dance,the American Legion hadmoneyto give away to help duringThanksgiving, said Norb Lank-heit, squadron commander.

Lankheit workedwith RemkeinHebron,which gave themgro-ceries at cost and donated someextra money. The result wasabout $300 worth of groceriesdonated to the family resourcecenter.

Burlington Elementary’s cen-ter is one of 10 family resourcecenters across Boone County.Eachcenterdidsimilarefforts tohelp provide Thanksgiving din-ners for those who wouldn’t beable to themselves, Hater said.

“We are really trying to helpas many Boone County familiesas we can,” she said.

FLORENCE — Students arebuilding towers and criticalthinking skills.

Erpenbeck Elementary com-pleted its first run of the STEAMLab extension period.

Combining science, technol-ogy, engineering, art and math,the STEAM Lab is designed togive students a practical under-standing of the five disciplineswhilehelpingthemdevelopcriti-cal thinking skills.

The first run of the STEAMLabwas donewith fifth-graders.

“Theywere asked to build theLeaning Tower of Pasta,” saidfifth-grade teacher ColleenWar-man.

Students used engineeringskills to determine tension, loadand compression as they con-structed towers with dry pastaand marshmallows.

Getting the towers togetherrequiredplenty of research, saidinstructional coach Kim Thom-som.

“They had to do a lot of read-ing,” Thomsom said.

As the project progressed,students were really into theirtowers, she said.

“The students were so en-gaged,” Thomsom said.

By the end of construction,

some towers could stand on theirown, while others couldn’t. Thekey, however, was getting stu-dents to reflect on what they didso they could understand whytheir tower stood or fell so theycould learn from the experience,Thomsom said.

Thiskindof thinking is impor-tant as Kentucky moves towardits next generation science stan-dards that focusesmore on criti-cal thinking, connecting in ateam and reflecting on results,she said.

“It’s not about the sit and getanymore,” Thomson said.

Erpenbeck is putting such alarge emphasis on the STEAMskills that the lab is being sched-uled inwith theextensionperiod,which has been traditionally re-served for boosting reading andmath comprehension.

“Our plan is that every stu-dent at Erpenbeck get a rota-tion,” Thomsom said.

Of course, word spreadingaround the school about buildingpasta towers is getting studentsexcited about their turn in theSTEAM Lab, and Warman has aperfect followup project inmind, she said.

“We’ve already got the nextrotation planned; we’re buildingroller coasters,” she said.

Coaches often profess a lovefor experienced players. Trans-lation: They want seniors on theroster.

Thanks to Kentucky’s ruleallowing middle school playersto compete on the varsity level,Ryle High School head coachPatti Oliverio has more than theusual level of experience on hersquad in the form of seniorsDawn Johnson and McKellOliverio, her daughter.

“It’s nice, really nice, to haveplayers like that,” Coach Oli-verio said. “McKell is the acety-lene torch and Dawn is like thelittle spark. They make ourteam go.”

The lone returning startersfrom last season torched oppo-nents in the early going. John-son averaged six steals and six

assists in blowout wins againstBourbon County and CincinnatiColerain to open the season. Atthe same time Oliverio shot 62percent from the floor and 90percent from the free- throwline.

“This is a group of girls whoreally loves to play,” CoachOliverio said. “So far they havegreat balance - nobody hastaken more than 10 shots in agame – which gives other de-fenses a lot to handle. Everyonecan step up and make a shot.”

Point guard Johnsoncould end her career asthe second-leading scor-er in Ryle history behindher friend and currentXavier University fresh-man Jenna Crittendon.On the other side of theball, she is only 30 steals

from becoming the ca-reer leader in that cate-gory.

“She has the completegame,” Coach Oliveriosaid. “She’s a great de-fender and she’s so fastand so strong with theball. She’s worked reallyhard on her outside gamecoming into this year andthat’s made her very dif-ficult to defend.”

Said Johnson: “My de-fense allowsme to get theball in the open floor.Most people can’t reallyhandle the ball underpressure; they kind of

freak out and try to getrid of it. I’m alwaysaround the ball and I get alot of run outs.”

McKell Oliverio playsthewing and likes to driftinto the corners for openshots on kick-out passesfrom the post. She hoverson the verge of becomingthe fifth Ryle player inthe last four seasons tojoin the 1,000-point club.

“Iwouldn’t say itwas agoal of mine, but it wouldbe nice,” she said. “I’mmore worried about uswinning, about us gettingbetter from now until the

end of the season.“For softball we’ve

made it to state everyyear since I was a fresh-man. I really want to getthere in basketball. Welost a lot of starters fromlast year and this is atough region, so I don’tthink people are expect-ing us to be that good, butwe’ve got that underdogmotivation.”

Johnson agreed.“We’re playing well to-gether. We have reallygood chemistry and a lotof people are going to besurprised by us.”

A12 • BOONE COMMUNITY RECORDER • DECEMBER 13, 2012

The river towns of BelleviewandMcVille, located side by sidein the Belleview Bottoms, wereborn three-quarters of a centuryapart.

Belleview was platted in 1815by Colonel EdwardMeeks, whochristened it Mount Vernon. An

1816 issue of theWestern Spy,published inCincinnati,described thetown as “locat-ed in the midst

of a high fertile bottom andinhabitants wealthy and industri-ous with their surplus productssuch as wheat, flour, tobacco,cheese and butter sold.” Al-though the town was officiallynamed Grant in 1869 and mailwas sent to the Grant Post Of-fice, the name “Belleview”stuck.

Like Petersburg and BigBone, Belleview was a steam-boat town built on shipbuildingand river trade. By the 1860s thetown had two tobacco ware-

houses, a hotel and severalstores. One of the major enter-prises was a basket factory,which used riverfront willows.

Two churches served thefaithful: Baptist and Church ofChrist. In 1878 JamesMcIntyrebuilt a combination residenceand post office for Jonas Clore,inscribing his name and the dateon a closet door. During the1900s a graded school and a bankopened their doors.

The town was served by theBurlington-Belleview Turnpike(present Ky. 18), which led to thecounty seat and nearbyMiddleCreek. By 1883 Belleview had100 residents.

Following the decline of rivertraffic in the late 19th century,the commercial life of Belleviewfaded. During the 1937 OhioRiver flood, the town and muchof the surrounding farmlandwere inundated. Despite chang-ing currents, Belleview remainsone of the best-preserved townsin the county: its houses,churches and commercial build-

ings still retain the flavor of a19th century river community.

Just south of Belleview isMcVille, founded by Green IsaacMcMullen in 1881. A man ofvaried interests, he was a wharf-master, tobacco dealer and con-tractor as well as a dealer inpaint and varnish.

Overshadowed by its larger

neighbor, McVille remained asmall community whose life wascentered on the river. Severalsteamboats were built there, andit boasted a river landing and aferry. As of 1883 it included foursquares bisected by alleys.

In the 1910s the Louisvilleoffice of the Army Corps ofEngineers began construction ofa series of small, low-level, navi-gation dams along the Ohio. Aspart of this effort, Lock & Dam38 was built in McVille begin-ning in 1926. Boone County resi-dents welcomed the constructionjobs although the dam also flood-ed some farmland and a smallisland used for picnics andcamping.

In addition to the dam itself,the complex included four bun-galow dwellings for workers, alock house, storage buildingsand a water tank. The dam sitesoon became a popular gather-ing place for local residents, wholiked to sit on benches, enjoy thecool river breezes and watchpleasure boats “locking through”

the dam.During the 1960s the small

dams of the 1910s and ’20s werereplaced by larger and moresophisticated structures. Whenthe high-level Markland Damwas finished in 1962, Lock andDam 38 was blown up; only aconcrete walkway and smalljetty nowmark its place. Thedam buildings were turned into aboys’ home and later into a wom-en’s prison and halfway houses.Dam construction also raised theriver level from a pool of 16 to 26feet, leaving the Front Streets ofBelleview andMcVille underwa-ter. TodayMcVille is a smallrural community much like itsolder neighbor, Belleview.

A little bit about Belleview, McVille

MargaretWarminskiCOMMUNITYRECORDER GUESTCOLUMNIST

Looking to lower yourmonthly payments? Are youlooking to consolidate debt?

In today’s recovering econo-my, these questions are top ofmind for many borrowers.Millions of Americans are “un-derwater” or faced with thechallenge of owing more on

their mort-gages thantheir homesmay be worthand are strug-gling to makemonthly pay-ments. Withextended gov-ernment pro-grams andcurrently lowmortgagerates, refi-

nancing may be a simple andbeneficial option to help youand your family save moneyand stay in your home.

In the simplest terms, refi-nancing your home mortgageallows you to apply for a newterm and interest rate to helpyou pay off an existing loan.

By taking advantage of alower interest rate, you may beable to reduce your monthlypayments and lower your over-all mortgage costs.

This can be especially help-ful for underwater borrowersstruggling to make currentloan payments due to a changein a financial situation or whenfaced with other significantexpenses. Money savedthrough refinancing also mayincrease your individual cashflow and help you pay off orconsolidate other debt, includ-ing credit cards.

Refinancing also may allowyou to shorten the length ofyour mortgage term. If youhave additional funds avail-able, you may be able to adjustyour loan to a shorter termwith a lower interest rate,which can ultimately help youpay off your mortgage loanfaster.

Many homeowners may beeligible for the government’senhanced Home AffordableRefinance Program (HARP),

which was designed in 2009 tohelp underwater borrowersrefinance. During the fourthquarter of 2011, the FederalHousing Finance Agency an-nounced significant modifica-tions to this program, calledHARP 2.0, which has been ex-tended until December 2013.This program continues tochange, and some borrowerswho were not qualified underthe former program may qual-ify under HARP 2.0.

The HARP 2.0 program canbenefit borrowers, who arecurrent on their mortgagepayments and have not had alate payment in the past sixmonths and no more than onelate payment in the past 12months. This program is de-signed for borrowers whoseexisting loan has been sold toFannie Mae and Freddie Macon or before May 31, 2009.

To help you understand ifrefinancing is right for you,you should contact your cur-rent mortgage lender or anoth-er financial institution to re-view your available options.

Bob Lewis is senior vice presidentand head of Fifth Third Mortgage Co.

Is it time to refinanceyour mortgage?

Our culture professes thatthe modern world of technol-ogy is completely independentfrom the archaic sphere inwhich our grandparents reside.I too shared this feeling untilrecently, when my allusions assuch were quickly dismantledafter conducting several in-terviews with the “elderly” ofour society.

The majority of people inolder generations who have anaversion to technology do sobecause of their resistance tochange. Barbara Connor, aretired housewife living inFlorida with her husband Wil-liam, has had a difficult timeadjusting to the new techno-logical age. She says, “I reallydislike new things, doesn’tmatter what they are. I resistchange, but then when I haveit, I think it’s the most wonder-ful thing in the world.”

It wasn’t only that the op-posed interviewees resistedchange in general, but they alsofound the pace of change to beoverwhelming. Helen Kreitz-burg, a retired retail managerliving in Pittsburgh, said, “Forpeople like me, who are justbeginning to use the device, itis really frustrating because Iam still trying to get used tothe old version when they comeout with something new.”

Shirley Dershowitz, fromNew York, has coined her erathe “sandwich generation”because most of them let thetechnological wave pass bywithout becoming very in-volved with it. She says, “Littleby little we will be forced touse the computer, whether welike it or not ... we’re really thesandwich generation. We arebeing forced to change becausewe have too many years left.”

Although Mrs.Dershowitz isnot ecstaticabout thischange, sheunderstands itis bound tohappen andwill approachthe challengehead on.

Instead ofbeing “forced

to change” as Mrs. Dershowitzstated, many grandparentshave embraced this change,even welcomed it. For them,email, social networking andvideo chatting are used to com-municate with family andfriends.

Email is by far the mostpopular Internet activityamong older generations be-cause it is the easiest and mostconvenient form of correspon-dence. Robert Paul, my 72-year-old grandfather who isalso vice president of sales andmarketing at Magna Group inDetroit, prefers email “becauseyou don’t have to sit and waitaround for an answer, whichquite frankly, I don’t have timefor.”

Although the majority of theinterviewees said they did notoperate a social media account,those who did stated the fore-most reason was to increasecommunication with theirgrandchildren.

May Johnson says, “I onlyget on a few times a year, andwhen I do, it is to talk withSummer and Sydney (hergrandchildren). They don’tanswer their phones anymore,so Facebook is the best way.”

Skype and other forms ofvideo chatting, although notexceedingly popular, are em-

ployed in the same way. Marga-ret Schrand will not go outsidethe house without a full appli-cation of makeup, so she adher-es to these same rules whenvideo-chatting her children andgrandchildren. “Oh yes, I doenjoy Skyping Kimberly andher children,” she says, “but ofcourse only if my makeup ison.” Her husband, John, washeard chuckling in the back-ground.

Although each participantpossessed a distinctive ap-proach regarding his or herrelationship with technology,prevalent throughout eachphone call was the theme ofcourage. Our grandparents arediving into this strange andoverwhelming realm of tech-nology without an ounce ofexperience. Baptism by fire,you could say. I am humbledthat I had the chance to hearthese unconventional storiesfirsthand, but I also feel com-pelled to share it with willingears.

It is for that reason that Iam writing in my room on aSaturday afternoon. This is nota story of the meek and feeble,this is a story of determination,of not giving up. Although thisstrange new world has beenthrust upon them, the “old”people are adapting. ShirleyDershowitz couldn’t have put itbetter when she said, “As youknow, I don’t like things tochange, but of course the onlything in life you can guaranteeis that there will be change.You might not always be readyfor it, but you sure as hell bet-ter learn to embrace it.”

It’s interesting howyour requests coincidewith current events. The

Ruth LyonsChildren’sFund is infull swingand I’vehad severalrequestsfor herfamouscoffeecake.It’s a spe-cial way tohonor this

woman who has had such apositive impact on us.

Ruth Lyons’coffeecake

I have a few versions ofthis recipe, but this is theone that’s supposed to beRuth’s original. I’ve madethis twice now, once fol-lowing the recipe belowand once making it with21⁄4 cups flour, 11⁄2 tea-spoons cinnamon, 1⁄4 tea-spoon salt, 1⁄2 cup oil, 2teaspoons vanilla and novinegar. (The vinegar isused to “sour” the milk,making it more like but-termilk). I made a thinicing to glaze it, as well.The difference betweenthe two was slight. This isa straightforward, simplecoffeecake. If you want aricher tasting one with athicker cinnamon topping,I have my holiday over-night coffeecake on myblog.

1 cup sugar1 cup brown sugar, dark

preferred21⁄2 cups flour1 teaspoon cinnamon1 teaspoon nutmeg1 teaspoon salt3⁄4 cup oil1 teaspoon vinegar1 cupmilk1 egg, lightly beaten1 teaspoon baking soda

Preheat oven to 350degrees. Mix the first sixingredients. Add oil andstir until crumbly. Re-serve and set aside 3⁄4 cupfor topping. Add vinegarto milk, then add to sugarmixture. Add egg andsoda; mix well. Pour into asprayed 13-inch by 9-inchpan. Sprinkle with top-ping. Bake 30 minutes.

My best clone ofWilliams-Sonomapeppermint bark

You didn’t think I couldlet the holidays go bywithout sharing yet anoth-er version, did you? Someof you have had trouble inthe past with the barkshattering/separating.That happens somewhateven with the purchasedbark, but this recipe keepsthat to a minimum, if atall. Out of all the recipesI’ve made for barkthroughout the years,using different melting

methods and chocolates,I’ve come back to myclassic way of teachingstudents. By the way,check out the photo. Canyou tell which is mine andwhich is Williams-Sono-ma’s? I used Kroger realsemi-sweet and whitechocolate morsels.

2 cups semi sweet chocolatechips, divided into 11⁄4 cupand 3⁄4 cupmeasures

11⁄2 teaspoons peppermintextract, divided into 1teaspoon and 1⁄2 teaspoonmeasures

23⁄4 cups white chocolatechips, divided into 21⁄4 cupand 1⁄2 cupmeasures

1⁄4 cup crushed peppermintcandy

Line a cookie sheetwith one piece of foil,about 10 inches by 12 inch-es. Or do the same in a13-inch by 9-inch pan.

Put 11⁄4 cups semi-sweetchocolate in heat proofbowl. Set over a saucepanthat has 1 inch of steamingwater, making sure bowldoes not touch water. (Thisis a makeshift doubleboiler). Heat should beturned to low. Stir untilchocolate is just aboutmelted, then remove bowl

from pan and stir 3⁄4cupmore in rest of semisweetchocolate, a bit at a time,until all is melted. If nec-essary, put the bowl backon the pan to help melt. Ifthere’s any moisture onthe bottom of the bowl,wipe it dry. Stir in 1 tea-spoon of the extract andpour onto foil, spreading

in even layer. Tap pan oncounter to remove any airbubbles. Let sit at roomtemperature until justabout set, anywhere from15-20 minutes. When youpress your finger into thechocolate a very slightindentation will remain.

Put 21⁄4 cups white choc-olate in clean bowl andrepeat process for melt-ing, stirring in remaining1⁄2 cup chips after remov-ing bowl from pan. Stir in1⁄2 teaspoon extract. Pourover chocolate layer andspread.

Sprinkle with candy. Ifnecessary, gently pressinto chocolate. Let set atroom temperature untilcompletely firm.

Peel bark off foil andbreak into pieces. Store,covered, at room temper-ature up to a month or so.If it’s extremely warm inthe house, store, covered,in refrigerator and bringto room temperature be-fore eating.

Many older Americansare struggling to affordfood to meet their basic di-etary needs. This month,nearly 1,000 vulnerableolder adults will receive ajar ofpeanutbutter in addi-tion to their Meals onWheels delivery, thanks todonations from friends andneighbors during a fooddrive.

In October, WesleyCommunity Services,AARP Ohio and Walgreensasked area residents to“Spread Some Good” withdonations of peanut butterat 57 local Walgreensstores in Greater Cincin-nati and Northern Ken-tucky. The food drive, heldOct. 11-29, collected 1,180pounds of peanut butter(940 jars).

The food drive is part of

the national AARPDrive toEnd Hunger; which pro-motes awareness about theserious problem of seniorhunger. The U.S. Depart-ment of Agriculture Eco-nomic Research Serviceshows that inOhio,15.5per-cent of households werefood insecure at some timeduring the year between2009 and 2011, compared to14.7 percent nationally.

While there are manysimilar food drives acrossthe country, the effort inCincinnati and NorthernKentucky was different inits focus on a singular item.The partnership alsohelped to assure that dona-tions remained in the com-munity.

Peanut butter is low incalories and is a source offiber, protein, and good di-etary fat. For older adults,the benefits of healthy eat-

ing include increasedmen-tal acuteness, resistance toillness and disease, higherenergy levels, faster recu-peration times and bettermanagement of chronichealth problems.

Contributions can bemade through the end ofthe year online to WesleyCommunity Services at2091 Radcliff Drive, Cin-cinnati, Ohio 45204.

Question: If I go with a “livetree” versus a cut Christmastree this year, what type of pinedo you recommend?

Answer: For planting in thelandscape after the holidays, wegenerally recommend sprucesover most pines or firs, al-though the Canaan Fir andDouglasfir (not a “true” fir)often perform well here. Nor-way Spruce is a fast grower, butSerbian Spruce and OrientalSpruce are a bit more showy.Some people like the ColoradoBlue Spruce.

The money usually spent ona disposable tree can be in-vested in a specimen that canadd value to the landscape.However, care must be takenwhen bringing a temperate treeindoors for any length of timeand then transplanting it out-

doors, especiallyin the winter.Here are somepointers to in-crease thechances of suc-cess.

» Living treesare generallymarketed aseither balled-and-burlapped orpotted plants.

Expect to pay more for a livingtree than a cut tree and realizethat nurseries may be reluctantto guarantee your purchasesince the tree will not be plant-ed during the normal plantingseason.

» Consider where the treewill be placed in the landscape.Most Christmas tree specieswill eventually reach a height of

at least 40-60 feet, so appropri-ate planning is essential.

» Pick out the tree early sothat a nicely shaped, vigorousplant can be chosen. But plan tokeep the tree inside for no long-er than seven to 10 days. In theinterim, go ahead and dig awide hole where the tree will betransplanted. Store the treeoutside, keeping the rootsmoist. Having the hole dugahead of time will avoid anyproblems of inclement weatherafter the holidays.

»When it’s time to bring thetree indoors, the main concernis to protect the plant fromdrying out. Avoid placing thetree near a fireplace, heater orwarm air vent. Keeping the treeon the cool side is preferable.Place the tree in a large tub orcover the root ball in plastic to

avoid spilling water on the floor.Allow water to evenly soak intothe root ball by applying it as aslow stream, or simply allow icecubes to melt into the soil ball.Don’t let the root ball sit inwater.

After Christmas, the treeshould be planted immediatelyin the pre-dug hole outside,keeping the top of the soil ballat the soil surface, then cov-ering with 2-3 inches of organicmulch, which should not touchthe trunk. Water periodicallythroughout the winter, especial-ly during warmer weather. Inspring and summer, water theplant once every week, as youwould any other newly trans-planted tree.

It can be a fun-filled time of theyear with many sights, flavors andsounds to enjoy. However, with theholiday decorations and activities wemay be increasing our risks of a firewithout realizing it.

Lights on tree, candles burning,parties, extension cords strung toaccommodate additional needs, andother practices may increase ourchances for a fire.

According to Underwriters Lab-

oratories a house fire today can be-come uncontrollable in less thanthree minutes. Additionally, thesmoke generated by today’s housefire has a higher level of toxicity thanin previous generations. All of thismay be due to our ever-increasingtechnology.

A few tips to remember as wecontinue to enjoy the season.

Check your smoke alarms to besure they are working properly.

Always be sure to extinguish can-dles before leaving a room, going tosleep, or leaving the home.

Do not allow lit candles near itemsthat may catch fire.

Do not leave a lit fireplace orburning embers unattended. Also,use a fireplace screen when possibleto help prevent sparks and embersfrom jumping into the room. Be sureyour fireplace and wood burningstove are in good condition and the

chimneys are clean.Do not run extension cords under

carpets or rugs.Keep anything that can burn at

least three feet from portable spaceheaters, fireplaces and wood stoves.
