Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. in Kentucky on Tues- day, Nov. 4, general Election Day. Boone County Clerk Ken- ny Brown said turnout in the county will range from 35 to 40 percent. “The majority of people only vote every four years,” Brown said in a reference to presiden- tial voting. In a similar election year in 2010 the turnout was 41 percent in Boone County, he said. The turnout in the presi- dential election year of 2012 was 60.4 percent for Boone County. Brown said people need to remember to vote for nonparti- san city, school board and judi- cial races if they are casting a straight ticket ballot for one party’s candidates. Also, write- in candidates are not posted in the polling place. Poll workers can inform a voter who write-in candidates are if asked by a vot- er, he said. Boone County write-in can- didates include Rebecca Lynn and James Duvall to a vacant seat on the county’s soil and wa- ter conservation district. Among Boone candidates on the ballot is Robert “Bobby” McDonald for Walton City Council. McDonald tied for the final of six Walton council seats in 2012 with 669 votes after, it was learned, his wife hadn’t made it to the polls. Brown tossed a coin to break the tie. McDonald lost the coin toss and the election, but the tie could have been avoided. Brown said his office’s web- site booneclerk.com will have live election results which will be updated starting at 6 p.m. Campbell County Clerk Jack Snodgrass said turnout in Campbell County could be be- tween 35 and 38 percent. “We have so many city races that are hotly contested,” Snod- grass said. Bellevue, Dayton, Fort Thomas, Highland Heights, Cold Spring and Alexandria – especially for mayor will bring out voters, he said. Competition for a U.S. Sen- ate seat between Republican Mitch McConnell and Demo- crat Alison Lundergan Grimes will likely bring out many peo- ple who haven’t voted much in the past, Snodgrass said. Snodgrass, a Democrat, is overseeing his 48th and final election Nov. 4 since being elected in 1989. Snodgrass said people should familiarize themselves with the two-sided ballot before coming to the polls. For some people the ballot will likely take five minutes to complete.

So, Thoman enlistedthe help of Reynolds, whohas an interest in technol-ogy development. Theyresearched apps used inlarger cities like NewYork and Dallas and cus-tomized an app for Flor-ence.

“It’s really nice to getthe ball rolling on some-thing like this and see itcome to a completion,”Thoman said. “However,the job is not done yet, wehave to get people usingthe app. Once it catcheson, I think, it’s going to im-prove thewaywecommu-nicate with people.”

BURLINGTON — Thetwo mayoral candidatestraded speeches, and inthe end embraced in atight-gripped handshakeat the Union CandidatesForum.

Students of Ryle HighSchool speechanddebateteam posed questions oftheir own and from theaudience at the forum tothemayoral and commis-sion candidates at theBoone County FiscalCourt chambers Oct. 23.

The two first-timecandidates for mayor,Larry Solomon and JimSchroeder, spoke aboutthe Union Town Plan(UTP), communication

with residents, and theproposed Kroger Mar-ketplace and the ramifi-cations of a related courtcase over the city com-mission’s zoning change.Mayor Don Kirby chosenot to seek another termand is stepping downDec. 31.

Schroeder said he willbring needed vision, en-ergy and communicationskills to the city.

“If elected, as the newmayor, I would strive tofulfill all obligations ofthe Union Town Plan andUnion Town Center(UTC),” he said.

Schroeder said he hasan eight-point contractfor residents. Hiring acity administrator, start-inga formal reviewof theUTP and a strategic plan-ning session and stream-ing video of meetings onthe city website are partof his contract, he said.

Solomon said he willemploy his experiencemanaging corporate bud-gets, and will work withall elected commission-ers.

“One of the most im-portant roles of our nextmayor is going to have tobe a consensus builder,”he said.

Solomon said focusingon communication is key,but so is involving moreresidents in the planningprocess for a new townplan.

The plan is a solidplace to startwith by ask-ing home owner associa-tion presidents and oth-ers for their input tomake sure anyone who

invests in Union is suc-cessful to avoid emptystorefronts.

Schroeder said thecity needs to gather con-sensus of howmuch com-mercial and residentialproperties the city willseek to develop. Schroe-der said the city needs tostrike a balance, but he is“adamantly opposed toC2 zoning.” Boone Coun-ty’s C2 zoning is for com-mercial stores on at leasttwo-acre plots.

“It’s not right for ourarea, Schroeder said.

Solomonsaideveryre-quest for a zone changeneeds to be evaluated onits own merits, and thecity has not set a preced-ent where every zonechange needs approval.

“I believe that beyondthenewKroger, I’mnot infavor of further commer-cial development downthe U.S. 42 corridor,” hesaid. “I think furthercommercial develop-ment should be chan-neled to the downtownarea.”

If the judge rulesUnion can keep the prop-erty for the proposedKroger zoned commer-cial it will be time to startworking with Kroger,Solomon said. Solomonsaid he will work to en-sure Kroger uphold obli-gations approved by thecommission accounts forthe sensitivities of arearesidents including Ar-bor Springs.

“The people who I be-lieve support me supportthe new Kroger,” Solo-mon said.

Schroeder said Krog-er needs to be an anchorpresence, but the zonechange deviates from thecity’s original plans andchanges the aesthetics ofthe plans.

“(It) would or could in-corporate spot zoning,whichcouldopenupacanof worms,” he said.

It’s possible the citycan bring Kroger backaboard what was encom-passed in the originalplans, Schroeder said.

Near the forum’s end,

candidates were askedwhat they see as Union’sbiggest problems andhow to address them.

“Communication isthe key, and has beenlacking for some time,”Schroeder said.

Community involve-ment in the Union Newsand Views and homeown-er association Facebookgroups about Union is asign there is interest, hesaid.Not havingacity ad-ministrator is related tocommunication, Schroe-der said.

“So, hiring a full-timecity administrator wouldhelp,” Schroeder said.

Solomon said the citycan’t convert the townplan into reality until thewidening of Mt. ZionRoad happens.

BURLINGTON — Twodays before Lexington’sUrban County Councilhad first reading to denytransfer of cable fran-chise ownership, mem-bers of the Boone CountyFiscal Court narrowlyavoided the same step to-ward a possible legal bat-tle.

After CommissionerCharlie Kenner moved todeny Boone County’stransfers of ownershipfrom Time Warner Cableto Comcast Communica-tions and fromComcast toCharter Communicationson Oct. 7, the other FiscalCourt members voted toextend negotiations untilNov. 14.

Like Lexington’s Ur-banCountyCouncil, as re-ported by the LexingtonHerald-Leader, BooneCountyFiscalCourtmem-bers have been attempt-ing to resolve differencesregarding Time Warnerand Comcast’s allegednoncompliance with theirfranchise agreements.

While the merger be-tweenTimeWarnerCableandComcast is under fed-eral review, local govern-ments must approve thetransfer of ownership aspart of their franchiseagreements, but they arenot required to approvetransfers if the compa-nies have been found non-compliant.

BooneCounty’sproposedresolutionsto denytransferalso citethat be-cause “the

transfer of control fromTime Warner Cable toComcast Corp. has yet tobeapprovedby theFeder-al Communications Com-mission or the Depart-ment of Justice, ComcastCorp. is not legally quali-fied.”

During theOct. 7meet-ing, representatives ofCharter Communicationsand Time Warner Cablesaid a newproposalwouldbe delivered to BooneCounty representativeswithin 48 hours.

However, more thanone week later, as of Oct.15, County AdministratorJeff Earlywine said nosuch proposal had beenreceived.

“To date, the FiscalCourt has not received aproposal in hand from thecable provider,” saidEarlywine. “There hasbeen contact from the ca-ble companies expressinga desire to schedule ameeting to discuss thematter.

“A meeting has not yettaken place.”

The extension allowsfurther negotiation untilNov. 14, but Earlywinesaid action would need totake place at the Nov. 4

meeting.“The transfer of con-

trol is a federally pre-scribed process. Thisprocess is fairly straight-forward and is being fol-lowed,” he said.

“Issues of concern forthe county are able to beaddressed through thisprocess, and it is those is-suesof concern, involvingnon-complianceby the ca-ble company, which havecaused the transfer to bedelayed and possibly de-nied if not addressed sat-isfactorily. The end goalfor the Fiscal Court is toprotect the interests ofthe citizens of BooneCounty.”

Earlywine said hedoesn’t believe BooneCounty’s cable subscrib-ers will be affected, but“the possible actions thatmight be taken by the ca-ble providers would bespeculative.”

During the Oct. 7 Fis-cal Court meeting, BrianGregory, senior directorof government relationsfor Charter Communica-tions, said, “If there wereto be a denial, that mightset a chain of litigation.”

Gregory also saidCharter is “anxious tocome in” to provide cableservice in Boone County.

“This has gone on andonandon, and thispropos-al is still conceptual,” saidKenner.

“At this point, it’s justnot wise to keep draggingthis out.”

ALEXANDRIA — PoliceChief Mike Ward knowsthat when cops and re-porters meet on an acci-dent scene, they don’t al-wayshave timeto talkandget to know one another.

That’s why he ar-ranged a meeting be-tween the Northern Ken-tucky Police Chiefs Asso-ciation and local mediarepresentatives at theWilder City Building onOct. 22.

More than 25 law en-forcement officers fromBoone, Campbell andKenton counties and sev-en media representativesmet for lunch and talkedabout ways they canworktogether to serve the pub-lic, despite their differentwork goals.

“Time is everything in

your industry,” saidWard.“You all have to get stuffon the air quick.”

He said there is onething both industriesshare: a nonstop workflow.

“Ours is constant. It’sjust like yours. It doesn’tstop,” he said.

Both groups agreedthat building an ongoingdialogue would be helpfulfor everyone involved, aswell as the mutual publicboth groups serve.

Media representativesoffered to help train offi-cers on how to use socialmedia, and the groupplans to continue to meeton a quarterly basis start-ing in the new year.

“I like a newspaper,”said Ward. “But withyoung folks, everything iselectronic. That’schanged and we have tofigure out how best we

can fit into that world aswell.”

Officers from the Ken-tucky State Police saidtheir organization tweetsregularly through themain office in Frankfort,on Twitter @kystatepol-ice.

They have nearly18,000 followers.

Ward said the North-ern Kentucky PoliceChiefsAssociationusedtoconduct similarmeetings,but they stopped severalyears ago.

“We lost that over theyears,” he said.

The regular meetingsnot only let the cops andreportersmeeteachotherwhen they both had timeto talk, but also allowedboth groups to let eachother know where theyhad problems and couldimprove relations.

BURLINGTON — Linne-mann’s red brick funeralhome burned down in Au-gust 2013 and the new yel-low brick LinnemannEventCenterhas taken itsplace.

Owners Marsha andGuy Linnemann will hostan open house from 2-5p.m. Nov. 9.

There will be refresh-ments, music, a raffle forprizes including Bengalstickets, and a chance toscope out the new facilityat 1940 Burlington Pike.

ThegrandopeningalsolaunchesEventsbyLinne-mann.

“We are all so excitedto open this beautiful cen-ter for the community; aplacewhereeveryonecancelebrate all of life’sevents,” said Marsha Lin-nemann.

“After such a devastat-ing loss, we have donewhat many do: rebuild,stay positive, and look tothe future. We knew thatBoone County needed asecond home. A placewherefamiliescouldcele-brate – from births tobirthdays, weddings tobaby showers.”

The event center,which includes 2,400square feet more than theprevious funeral home,features a wide marble-tiled lobby, a patio, twolarge event rooms, geo-thermalheating,anewau-dio-visual system, awarmingkitchen, a largerparking lot, a secure flow-

er delivery room and fourtimes the bathroom facil-ities.

Passersby will imme-diately notice a portico, orroof structure, over thedriveway, allowing visi-tors to exit cars and enterthe building under shel-ter.

The new facility in-cludes two items from theold building: the stainedglass windows.

“People called to checkon us after the fire, butthey also called about thewindows. They reallywanted to know if we’dkeep them,” she said.“That’s all we saved. Youcan see bubbles in themfrom the fire.”

Linnemann said thewindows are back-lit sothey can be seen at nightfrom the highway.

Repeated requests fornon-traditional funeralceremonies inspired theLinnemannstorebuild thecenter to accommodate

different types of events.“More and more fam-

ilies want something dif-ferent,” she said.

Thebuilding’seast sidecomprises the chapelarea, known as the BooneRoom, and the westernside is named the VesperRoom, after Dr. AlbertVesper, a surgeon whowas a silent partner withBud Linnemann whenthey opened the Erlangerfuneral home in 1955.

The meeting rooms,which can hold 276 peoplealong with several 5-feet-wide circular tables, caneach be split into twoparts for smaller events.

“Really, what we wantto do is thank this commu-nitywhohasdonesomuchfor us,” said Linnemann.“I always said therewas agift in this,andthegifthasbeen how the communityhas been so kind.”

FLORENCE — Pine-hurst, N.C., has been ahub of championship golffor a long time. The No. 2course at its famous re-sort frequently hosts ma-jor events, including the2014 US Open.

Youth and amateurevents are also on othercourses in the city on aregular basis, and Flor-ence youthRylanWother-spoon has experiencedthe history of the club.

Wotherspoon, an 11-year-old fifth-grader whoattends Longbranch Ele-mentary,hasplayed in thearea the last three yearsduring the world champi-onship events of the U.S.KidsGolfTour. InAugust,he finished 47th out of150competitors in the boys10-year old age group, hisbest showing in the event.

During his free time,he viewed the course thathas seen the best in theworld walk on it.

“Iwalkedup to the18thgreen and I thought aboutall the history that hadbeen played at that greenand I thought it was pret-ty cool,” he said.

Wotherspoon shot a230 for three rounds inthe tourney (76-79-75) ona course that measures5,150 yards for that agegroup. He won a tourna-ment in Youngstown,Ohio, to qualify.

Twoyears ago, his firsttrip to Pinehurst, theyoungster had a learning

experience, finishing122nd.

“We didn’t know whatto expect,” said his father,Adam. “He had a little bitof humble pie. This year,he had the largest jumpfrom the previous year.His coach thinks he canreach the top 10.”

Wotherspoon, whoplays at Traditions in He-bron, hasbeenplaying forthree years and is on thecourse asmuch as he can.

“We didn’t realizewhen we bought him golfclubs three years ago thatit would take up so muchof his time,” Adam said.“We could tell it wassomething he was pas-sionate about. You askanyone at World of Golf,they’ve probably seenhim - he’s there every daypracticing.

“It’s the first thing hethinks about. When I gethome, he’s there waitingformeandhe’s dressed togo.”

Rylan isnotbigenoughyet to be a long hitter andconstantly works on hisshort game.

“I did really well thisyear, much better thantwo years ago,” he said.“(In 2012), I played withthe No. 3 kid in the world.It was fun to play withhim and see how good hewas. The first year wasmore experience and itgotmereadyfor thisyear.Some kids can hit it long-er but I learned that Ihave some advantages inputting and chipping.”

Wotherspoon, who

counts Arnold Palmerand Phil Mickelsonamong his favorite pros,was the player of the yearin the 10 and under divi-sion on the Musselman-Dunne junior tour thissummer and recentlyshot a 2-under nine holeround at World of Golf.He likes the individualna-ture of golf.

“I like to be a singleplayer because if I were

on a team and I did bad Iwould letmy teamdown,”he said. “In golf I only letmyself down.”

Longbranch doesn’thave a golf team andAdam Wotherspoonhopes his son’s accom-plishments can get morekids interested in thesport.

Asmany of you know, the UnitedStates is not a pure democracy. Infact, the founders were very clearthat it should be a representativerepublic. That is a form of govern-ment where you elect someone tovote on your behalf.

As the state senator representingBoone County, every time I vote onan issue I am voting on behalf of the120,000 citizens I represent. In theSenate, every vote for a bill is aroll-call vote in which the senator’sname is called and he or she canvote “yea,” “nay” or “pass.”

The many of you who have vis-ited me on the Senate floor knowthat I get a bit nervous every timemy name is called. It doesn’t matterthat I’ve cast hundreds of votes inthe last six years. This is because Irepresent you, and I want to makesure I get it right for the people ofBoone County.

Since I represent more than100,000 people, not everyone is goingto agree with my votes. At the end ofthe day, I simply have to make thebest decision I can. I strive to do thisby receiving as much input frommyconstituents as possible.

That is why I’ve called two townhall meetings this year with a third

one planned. Onemeeting took placein Hebron and theother took place inUnion. The thirdmeeting will takeplace at 10 a.m.Nov. 10 at the Wal-ton Branch of theBoone County Pub-lic Library. I want-ed to make sureeach town hallmeeting was in a

different part of the county.It doesn’t matter if it is at a town

hall meeting, via social media or byan old-fashioned telephone call tomy home or office – I want to hearfrom you. Please do not hesitate tolet me know what you think. Thatway, when I cast my vote, when theroll call is read, I will be as informedas possible about the opinions of thepeople I have the privilege to repre-sent.

Sen. John Schickel, R-Union, representsBoone County. He welcomes your concernsor comments toll free at 800-372-7181 oronline at http://www.lrc.ky.gov/Messages/S011.aspx. Twitter: @SenatorSchickel.

The challenges of arepresentative republic

JohnSchickelCOMMUNITYRECORDER GUESTCOLUMNIST

All stories have a begin-ning, and since I am theonly surviving member ofthe first library board, Ifeel it is my duty to tell thetale. Once upon a time,there was no public libraryin Boone County. If some-one wanted a book, onehad to buy it or go to Co-vington to the KentonCounty Library.

At the time, I was thepresident of the BooneCounty Jaycettes, thefeminine arm of the Jay-cees.

“Where is the library?”askedMaryMargaretGaries, anewmem-ber whosehusbandhad beentrans-ferredwith hisjob. Shefound ithard tobelieve

that a county that wasgrowing with new indus-tries and a burgeoningpopulation had no library.We agreed to do somethingabout it. We sat down andbegan to brainstorm.

Boone County needs alibrary. I knew we neededa go-getter, someone whowas active in the commu-nity and got things done,someone who cared aboutthe healthy growth of ourcounty. Having workedwith Ted Bushelman in theJaycees, I knew he wasthat someone. So I askedTed to join us in our wor-thy endeavor. He agreed,and we began to meetregularly. We spread theword, and our group grew.

We chose the nameABLE, the Association forBoone Library Encourage-ment. Through network-ing, others joined us fromorganizations like the Li-ons Club, FlorenceWom-en’s Club, Rotary Club andthe Daughters of theAmerican Revolution.

Effective communica-tion was a necessity, so weformed a speakers’ bu-reau. Carol Ackley, DonRavencraft, Ted and Icreated a presentation thathighlighted the reasons alibrary would be a boon tothe county. Persuadingvoters to agree to a newtax was paramount. Wewere ready for any nega-tive question with a posi-tive answer and spoke toany group who would haveus.

In order to get the li-brary issue on the ballot,we learned we had to have1,500 signatures on a pet-ition. So, we walked door-to-door asking for support.After reaching the quota,we spent many hours inthe courthouse verifyingthat each signature wasvalid.

We needed a slogan,simple and direct. “I Wanta Library!” became ourmantra. Many lapels sport-ed our campaign buttonsthat had a white back-ground with the slogan inbold, dark blue letters.

At the same time, therewas a faction in the countythat wanted a new jail.That, too, was going to beon the ballot. A few of thepoliticians were not veryhappy with us. One told me“…not to screw up his jailissue.” Another warnedmethat my property valuecould easily be reapprais-ed so I would have to pay ahigher tax. A local busi-nessman angrily said, “Mykids will never use a li-brary, but they might be ina jail.”

In mid-September, I hadto have back surgery andwas hospitalized for 30days due to complications.It was a good thing I had aphone in my room, (nocellphones then) becauseTed and I talked severaltimes each day, planningand keeping track of howthe movement was pro-gressing.

As we neared ElectionDay, we enlisted the helpof the Boy Scouts and GirlScouts. What a wonderfulday it was as we watchedthose young people ad-dressing postcards andfolding pamphlets askingfor support for the libraryissue.

I can still hear themcheering, “We want a li-brary! We want a library!We want a library!” Thecommunity had becomeinvolved, and “Library”was the buzzword wher-ever we went. Many hadgotten on board promotingthe issue; many churchesand organizations helpedas the issue gained mo-mentum. Phil Carrico, thedistrict librarian, wasinvaluable with his adviceand support.

Election Day arrived. Iwas on edge all day. Mymother and father, Royand Elizabeth Nestor, keptour son, David, while I andmy husband, Harold, wentto the courthouse to waitfor the votes to be tallied.After the final count,Boone CountyWAS GO-ING TOHAVE ITS LI-BRARY.

The voters overwhelm-ingly supported the newtax that would pay fortheir own facility.

I remember crying andjumping up and down. Twoyears of preparation andwork had paid off. A re-

porter from one of theradio stations came overand asked me to make acomment. I remembersaying, “I’m so thrilled thecommunity wanted this. Somany people of all agesworked long and hard forthis cause. Now, BooneCounty is going to have itsown library.”

The newly appointedboard consisted of TedBushman, president; Gin-ny Kohl, vice president;along with Don RavencraftfromHebron; EmilyReeves, Florence; andGertrudeMatheny, Bur-lington. Our financial ad-viser was John Brockett.

We interviewed appli-cants for librarian andhired Jane Smith, whoworked for the librarysystem until her retire-ment of recent. With PhilCarrico’s help, along withCharles Hinds, the statelibrarian, we went to workto find a temporary facil-ity. Mr. NelsonMarkes-bery had a boat shop andgarage on Girard Streetthat fit the bill. He agreedto rent it to us, knowingthat we would adapt it toaccommodate our needs.Kenton County gave us oldshelves from its library,along with a desk, cardcatalog and books. Thestate supplemented oursupply of reading materi-als. Soon, we were in busi-ness, and the Boone Coun-ty Public Library openedits doors.

Thankfully, this librarysystem’s story has no end-ing. It continues to unfoldwith growth and greatsuccess. I am sure we,Boone Countians, willenjoy its services and livehappily together everafter.

Ginny Kohl, vice chairwoman of the Library Board at the June 20,1976, cornerstone dedication ceremony. Today this building iscalled the Florence branch.

If you look at the “Streets &Points of Interest Map” of BooneCounty, the landscape rolls up fromthe Ohio River for somemiles be-fore apparently falling off earth’sedge at the county’s eastern bound-ary. The exception is that part of thecity of Walton which leaks into Ken-ton County.

Seen today mostly in digital formonline or a smartphone map app(and occasionally on a paper map),the dividing line between Boone andKenton counties was once set instone. The boundary line was origi-nally surveyed byMoses Scott in1802 under order of the state legisla-ture, to establish the line betweenBoone and parent county CampbellCounty. Kenton County was notcalved off of Campbell until 1840.

While the Boone-Kenton line wasresurveyed again by Boone CountySurveyor Moses Rice in 1846, itwould be another half century be-fore the two counties got seriousabout defining their territories.

The two counties teamed up in1897 to resurvey their mutualboundary, probably in an effort todecide once and for all who got howmuch tax revenue fromwhom. Thebeginning point of the line was set asthe low water mark on the north sideof the Ohio River at a point 26 poles(429 feet) east of the confluence ofDry Creek (on the river’s southside). The other end at Grant Countywas at Bullock Pen Creek exactly18.8577 miles to the south. The linewas marked with 33 markers, setinto the ground about 3,000 feetapart. They were made of ItalianCarrara marble, measured about 1foot square, and jutted a few inchesabove the ground surface. Each

marker was en-graved with thedistance from thebeginning in milesand fractions, theletters B and K forthe counties, andthe names “Vest”and “Menefee,” forthe surveyors em-ployed respectivelyby Boone Countyand Kenton County.The 1897 project

may have settled the boundary issuebut the markers themselves wereeventually forgotten, at least untillongtime Boone County SurveyorNoel Walton took an interest in themin the early 1970s.

It wasn’t until the early 1990s thatthe county retained him to resurveythe line and identify the remainingmarkers. The resulting Boone Coun-ty Line Monument Relocation Pro-ject found just 10 of the original 33markers intact. An additional 18were confirmed destroyed, mostlyby road construction, farming activ-ities, or new construction. The oth-ers were never found. Two decadeslater the fate of the 10 remainingintact 1897 county line markersfound byMr. Walton is unknown.

“The HauntedWoods”

by Ezaiah Tillman

The sky is darkThe weather is coolAnd the owl goes

hooo-hoooo in the night.The wolf howls and

gives me a fright.

I follow the scarysounds.

My heart pounds,pounds,

As I travel deeperinto the woods.

I see witches, goblindogs, devils, and bones.

In the darkness of thehaunted woods, I am leftalone.

“The Haunted House and theMissing Tombstone”by Allen Watts

There was a green and red hauntedhouse. A zombie was peeking off the topof the house and a ghost was coming outof the chimney. There was a giant babyoutside in the backyard. He was as bigas a skyscraper. The baby was laughingat a ghost trying to knock down a doorto get inside. The ghost thought light-ning was going to strike him. But hecouldn’t break through the door, so hehad to use a saw to cut a hole in it.

As soon as the ghost went throughthe hole, a blue, yellow and white mon-ster accidentally stomped on him. Itmade the ghost as flat as a pancake. Themonster saw that he stepped on theghost and used a pump to blow himback up.

A skeleton saw the monster andyelled at him to look where he was go-ing! The monster started crying be-cause the skeleton yelled at him. Theskeleton got mad at the monster andran outside to a spooky cemetery.

There was a tombstone missing inthe cemetery and he crawled down inthe hole. He saw a box and when heopened it, there was another skeletonjust like him. He squeezed into the boxwith the other skeleton and shut the lid.He wanted to hide from the monster sothat he wouldn’t get stomped on too andcrushed by the monster’s ginormousfoot.

At the haunted house, everyone wassad that the skeleton left. They all wentto look for him. Amummy saw themsearching outside and joined them.They walked to the cemetery and sawthat a tombstone was missing. One byone they climbed down into the hole.Then they opened the box and saw thetwo skeletons inside. But they didn’tknow which was which, so they pulledboth of the skeletons out. One yelled, “Iwill go back to the haunted house!”

When they got back to the hauntedhouse, the skeleton saw the zombiepeeking off the top of the house. Hescreamed, “Ahhhhhh!” In a deep voice,the zombie said, “I WILL NOTHURTYOU.” The monster said, “BUT IWILL

HURT YOU ZOMBIE!’’The monster climbed up on the roof

and grabbed the zombie. The zombiecried and said, “I WANTMYMUM-MY!” He got away from the monsterand jumped off the roof. He ran awayinto the cemetery and climbed into thehole where the skeleton had hid. Hestayed there in the hole forever.

Everybody back at the hauntedhouse looked for the zombie, butcouldn’t find him. They went to thecemetery and saw green slobber by themissing tombstone. They knew it wasfrom the zombie. Then they lookeddown in the hole and saw that the lidwas open a tiny bit. But then a giantnoise struck the land and a giant shad-ow appeared. The giant baby had snuckup on them. Everybody was scaredbecause they thought the baby wasgoing to get them. So they crawleddown in the hole and lived there happilyever after.

I had nuts left over frommaking caramel apples so Idecided to make some peanutbrittle. Peanut brittle can be atricky candy to make, andsome of my recipes call for acandy thermometer along with

the addition ofbaking soda,neither of whichthis recipe re-quires. I will tellyou that thispeanut brittledoesn’t have the“snap” andsomewhat airytexture of tradi-tional brittle.Regardless, it’sso-o-o good.

I’m thinking I should havewaited until the holidays toshare. But you knowme, if Imake something that is awe-somely good, I can hardly waitto share.

Simple peanut brittleChock full of nuts. If you

want more of brittle, use lessnuts. Adapted fromMelanieBarnard’s recipe. As Melanietold me “follow directions andit works every time.” If all youhave in the fridge is saltedbutter, that’s OK to use.

1/2 stick unsalted butter1/2 cup sugar2 tablespoons corn syrup -

I’ve used both light and darkand prefer dark

1 teaspoon vanilla2 cups saltedmixed nuts

or peanutsLine cookie sheet with foil

and spray it. Stir butter, sugarand corn syrup in pan overmedium heat until sugar meltsand mixture bubbles and be-comes smooth. Cover and cookfor a minute. Stir in vanilla andnuts and cook, stirring con-stantly, until nuts are fragrantand golden brown, about 5

minutes. Pour onto foil, spread-ing thin. Cool and break apart.Store, tightly covered, at roomtemperature up to a week.

Baked potatoes withcheese sauce likeWendy’s

For the reader who wants toavoid buying these throughWendy’s drive-thru. Home-made is always better! Here’sa cheese sauce that’s so versa-tile. It’s good on broccoli andother veggies, too. SometimesI’ll whisk in a squirt of Dijon ordry mustard with the milkmixture. Sharp or mild ched-dar work equally well.

And here’s a question I getasked a lot: Can you use any

kind of potatoes for baking?Well, yes, but the true bakingpotatoes, like Idaho, have morestarch in them and bake updrier and fluffy.

And they’re really the best,I think, for mashed potatoes.Others, like red, will bake upmore “waxy” and firm. Mytake? The bakers are best, butif all you have are red or otherkinds, go for it.

4 nice sized baked pota-toes

2 Tablespoons butter2 Tablespoons flourSalt & pepper1 cupmilk1-1/2 cups shredded ched-

darMelt butter in pan over

medium heat. Add flour and

whisk for one minute. Slowlywhisk in milk and whisk untilthickened, about 5 minutes.Remove from heat and stir incheese until smooth. Add saltand pepper to taste.

Make a lengthwise split inpotatoes. Smoosh up at bothends to open and fluff up. Pourcheese sauce over.

Tip from Rita’s kitchen:Broccoli and cheesestuffed potatoes

Steam some broccoli floretsand add before pouring oncheese.

Readers want to know:Are beets good for you?

You bet they are. Boost yourbrainpower with beets. As weage, poor blood flow contrib-utes to cognitive decline.

Research shows that beetscan help increase blood flow tothe brain, which helps improvemental alertness and perfor-mance and may help preventAlzheimer’s.

Eat them roasted with redonions, olive oil, rosemary andthyme, then drizzled with Bal-samic vinegar for a true feast.

When buying a newcar is it a good idea toimmediately buy anextended service war-ranty?

Manypeople dothat, butif you do,you haveto be verycarefulabout justwhat youare buy-ing.

WhenJohnScudder,

of Hillsboro, bought anew car a few yearsago he said he didn’tthink twice when askedabout buying an ex-tended service warran-ty. “She asked, ‘Do youwant a 60,000-mile war-ranty?’ I said, ‘OK,sure,’ ” Scudder said.

It was only later thathe asked about theparticular warranty hebought and found it wasfrom an independentcompany, not from thevehicle manufacturer.Scudder said he ran

into problems when hetook his car into anoth-er dealer and showedhis warranty.

“He said, “We don’taccept it.’ I went to mymechanic and hedoesn’t accept it. Thenhe went to anothermechanic – but no oneaccepted it,” Scuddersaid.

The dealer who soldhim the policy saidthere was no problem,that he should bring thecar back to them.

“He said, ‘If youbrought the car backhere we would haveaccepted it.’ But, whatif I’m in Florida? Mydaughter is a doctordown there. I wouldhave to tow it back2,000 miles and it justdoesn’t make sense,”Scudder said.

Scudder paid $2,200for the warranty andsaid he now realizes heshould have bought themanufacturer’s extend-ed service warrantyinstead.

“If it was a Hondawarranty they would

cover it. I didn’t need touse it because my Hon-da ran great. But theysaid because it’s not aHonda warranty theywon’t even talk withyou,” Scudder said.

Consumer Reportshas found most readersspent more on theirwarranty than theysaved in repairs.

But if you still wantto buy a warranty youdon’t have to do so im-mediately.

You can wait untiljust before the originalwarranty expires tobuy the extended war-ranty.

If you wait you’llknow whether you real-ly want to keep the car.But be advised, you willprobably have to paymore for the extendedwarranty at that point.

Howard Ain’s column ap-pears biweekly in the Com-munity Press. He appearsregularly as the Trouble-shooter on WKRC-TV Local12 News. Email him [email protected].

Be careful when buyingextended car warranty

EXPERIENCED QUALIFIED IMPARTIALOnNovember4, thevotersof BooneandGallatinCountieswill chooseournextCircuitJudge. I believe the most important question each voter must ask is, who do you wanton the bench fighting the terrible heroin epidemic that plagues our community?

Although theCircuitCourt is the court of general jurisdiction that handles civil actionsinvolving more than $5,000.00, a vast majority of its time is spent handling seriouscriminal cases, many of them involving heroin.

I have been an attorney for over twenty years. I have handled complex civil litigation,however, I have spent the bulk of my career serving as a prosecutor. I have prosecutedthousands of cases andhave been on the front lines of dealingwith the heroin problem.In contrast, my opponent has no experience handling serious criminal cases. None!

I believe it is critical that our next Circuit Judge be prepared to handle these cases, all cases, the day she is sworn in. Thebench is not the place to experience your first serious criminal case.

The Northern Kentucky Bar Association recently surveyed its members as to the qualifications of myself and myopponent. Well over 100 attorneys who practice in Boone andGallatin Counties responded. Nearly 90% declared I wasqualified. Over 58% found my opponent not qualified. I believe those are telling numbers. These are the people whoknow our ability and qualifications best.

I have spent the last twodecades of my life raisingmychildren,being a good grandparent to my precious grandchildren, andbeing the best attorney I can be. My opponent has spent abetter part of the last decade practicing confrontationalpartisan politics. I have no political agenda. I am dedicated toinsuring everyone who appears before a Judge receives theirfair day in court.

Experience and qualifications matter for this importantposition! I ask for your vote on November 4th.

Join us in our bipartisan support for Marcia ThomasGeoff Davis (R), Former US Congressman • Robert D. Neace (R), Boone County Attorney • Judge Executive Bruce Ferguson (D) • Michael P. Collins (D), Retired District Judge

Patricia Gutzeit (D), Former Circuit Clerk • Mel Carroll (R), Florence City Council • Edward Drennen (R), Former Judicial Candidate

Glowing jack-o-lan-terns, festivedecorations,spooky costumes – Hal-loween offers tons of fes-tive fun, but it does comewith hidden fire dangersthat can be truly scary.

Fortunately, by follow-ing some simple safetyprecautions from the Na-tional Fire ProtectionAssociation (NFPA), youcan ensure a day of safefun for your family andtrick-or-treaters.

NFPA’s most recentstatistics show thatdecorationswere the firstitems to be ignited in 920reported home structurefires on average eachyear.

NFPA provides safetytips to keep everyone safe

thisHalloween, including:» Whenchoosingacos-

tume, stay away from bil-lowing or long trailingfabric.

If you aremaking yourown costume, choose ma-terial that won't easily ig-nite if it comes into con-tact with heat or flame.

If yourchild iswearingamask,make sure the eyeholes are large enough sothey can clearly see out ofthem.

» Provide childrenwith flashlights to carryfor lighting or glow sticksas part of their costume.

» Dried flowers, corn-stalks, and crepe paperare highly flammable.Keep these and other dec-orations well away from

all open flames and heatsources, including lightbulbs and heaters.

» It is safest to use aglow stick or battery-op-erated candle in a jack-o-lantern.

Ifyouusearealcandle,use extreme caution.Make sure children arewatched at all timeswhencandles are lit.

When lighting candlesinside jack-o-lanterns,use long fireplace-stylematches or a utility light-er. If you choose to usecandle decorations, makesure to keep themwell at-tended at all times.

» Remember to keepexits clear of decorations,so nothing blocks escaperoutes.

Keep Halloween safe for family

“Mr. Linden’s Library:Annabelle’s Curiosity”

by Ashley Nordman

A long, long time agothere was a beautiful,young, curious princessnamedAnnabelle. She hada sister namedAlia, whowas her best friend, andoften kept her out of trou-ble.

It was a chilly Octobernight as Annabelle laydown by the fire to readher book. Boredwith heroptions, she went to thecastle’s library. She pickedup a book on the front

table that looked veryinteresting. It had vines allover it, andwas called“TheWonders of Nature.”Suddenly, someone yelled,“You cannot get thatbook!” she twirled aroundlike a top andwas sur-prised to seeMr. Linden,the librarian, lookingstraight at her. “You heardme!” he cried. Then hetook the book right out ofher hands and put it highup on the top shelf.

Annabelle was verycurious about the book.“Mr. Linden’s behaviorwas super strange,”thought Annabelle. “Iwonder what could be inthat book ... OMGmaybe itis magic!”

These thoughtsswarmed her head allevening. She really want-ed to knowwhat was inthat book! But, Annabellewas already on thin ice(she was a bit of a troublemaker because of hercuriosity). She couldn’tstand not knowing, shewas going to have to stealthe book!

That night, after every-one was in bed, Annabellewoke Alia to go to thelibrary. Nervously, Aliacame along.

It was cold, dark, andquiet. Soon she and Aliaspotted the book. She ranover to the shelf and AliagotMr. Linden’s ladder.She climbed up andreached as high as shecould, and barely graspedthe book. It tumbled downthe shelves and landed onthe groundwith a thud atAnnabelle’s feet.

They ran out of thelibrary and into Anna-belle’s room before any-one could see them. “I amscared, Annabelle,” saidAlia. “I don’t think weshould read this book.”The vines seemed tomove

on the outside of the book.“Don’t be silly, Alia! It

is just a book!What couldbe so dangerous about abook?” said Annabelle.

“Mr. Linden didn’t wantus to see this book. I amleaving. You should bringit back.”

“Fine, Alia, I will read itwithout you.” Annabellehid the book in her night-stand to read later thatnight.

It was written in someforeign language that shedid not understand. Therewere beautiful drawingsof plants that almostlooked real, and seemed tobemoving.

“Wow!” she said withawe. Then she set downthe book next to her andfell asleep.

A fewminutes later shewoke up frantically. Shecouldn’t breathe! Some-thing was choking her. Shelooked down and realizedthat she had vines aroundher neck that were pullingtighter and tighter. Morevines were coming at hergrabbing her wrists andankles. Theywere allcoming out of the book!

“HELP!“ Shewas hav-ing trouble yelling.“ALIA!” she yelled withevery last ounce of breathin her body.

Alia came rushing intothe room. “Annabelle! Areyou OK!?”

“No!” Annabelle barelymanaged to whisper, whiletrying to shake her head.Alia tried to pull the vinesoff of Annabelle, but theywere too strong. Sheshould’ve listened toMr.Linden. He hadwarnedher about the book. Now itwas too late.

“I have an idea!” Aliaran out of the room. Anna-belle was really havingtrouble breathing. She wasvery scared. A fewmin-utes later, Alia returnedwithMr. Linden.

In a creepy voiceMr.Linden started to chant,“From thewonders ofnature awaywith thesevines!Make them smallerand smaller until theyuntwine!”

The vines began toloosen around her neckandwrists, and Annabellequickly got herself free.

“This book is cursed,”statedMr. Linden. “I triedto warn you. I hope youhave learned your lesson.”

Annabelle thankedMr.Linden for his help. “I amsorry I didn’t listen to you.Lesson learned.”

Mr. Linden sent thebook far away. Centurieslater, however, the bookhas still been rumored tobe seen in libraries aroundthe world, but not every-one knows the spell to stopthe vines.

For many people, thatmeans wearing decora-tive contact lenses tochange their eye color orcreate the effect of beinga character like a cat,zombie or vampire.

But if these lenses arebought illegally and with-out a prescription fromyour eye doctor, theycould lead to serioushealth issues and poten-tially damage your eye-sight.

The Kentucky Optom-etric Association recom-mends talking to yourdoctor first and obtaininga prescription before in-corporating decorative

contact lenses as part ofyour costume.

According to an Amer-ican Optometric Associa-tion survey, 17 percent ofAmericans have worndecorative contact lensesas part of a costumeor forother cosmetic purposes.Of those, 24 percent pur-chased them illegallywithout a prescriptionand from a source otherthan an eye doctor.

All contact lenses areclassified as medical de-vices by theU.S. Food andDrug Administration,whether they correctyour vision or are wornsimply for fun. Some dec-orative lenses are sold il-legally through the Inter-net, beauty salons, conve-

niencestoresandevenna-tional retailers. The KOAwarns that you shouldnever buy lenses fromthese sources.

It’s important to have acomprehensive eye ex-amination from your op-tometrist to be sure youare a good candidate forcontact lenses.

Your eye doctor willalso make sure your lens-es fit properly and teachyou how to safely care foryour lenses.

“By visiting an eyedoctor, consumers can ob-tain the proper prescrip-tion and ensure that thelenses fit, so wearers re-duce the risk of infectionor other serious side ef-fects,” Sutton said.

Illegal ‘zombie’ lenses are unsafe
