COLLECTION TIME Teenagers who post to so- cial media may be violating the law without realizing it. School resource officer An- drea Smythe, with the Youth Services Unit of the Cincinnati Police Department, speaks at a number of schools throughout the year including Mt. Wash- ington School, McNicholas High School, Guardian Angels School and Hyde Park School about the dangers of “sexting” and “cyberbullying.” “You would be shocked how many teens are unaware that some things they post could be considered criminal,” she said. Smythe said her presenta- tions focus on education and prevention. She said issues involving so- cial media are often more prevalent at the middle and high school levels as opposed to the elementary school level. Monfort Heights resident Jimmy Dinsmore says all so- cial media should worry par- ents. Dinsmore, who has a 12- year-old daughter, is a social media strategist who occasion- ally gives talks at schools. “You have to pay attention to what is going on with your kid, on whatever format they’re on,” Dinsmore said. “And not just pay attention to your kid, but all of their friends. For Tweens and young teens Instagram is a popular one. Most of that is transpar- ent, where a parent can see what is being posted and said. However, friends can send pri- vate messages and parents should be checking that regu- larly.” Dinsmore said Snapchat is particularly problematic. “This is much less transpar- ent,” he said. “Friends (or strangers) can send your child a video or photo message with a very brief message. The im- age or video stays up for only a brief time and then disappears. But this does not mean it didn’t make out onto the cloud and In- ternet. And because what is be- ing sent disappears quickly, it’s harder for parents to know what is being sent amongst their kids. “KIK is another one. This is a seemingly harmless messag- ing service. However, it’s be- come common for sexual pred- ators and perverts to patrol KIK due to its somewhat anon- ymous methods. As a parent, there is no real merit or reason for a child to have KIK, so I don’t allow my daughter to have an account. “The real action for a teen is going down on Twitter. All par- ents should have a Twitter ac- count and follow their child and their friends.” Last month, New Richmond High School posted police offi- cers at its entrance to check all student book bags after one student posted a threat on the Yik Yak social media app. That was the same week that the dis- trict banned student use of the app, as well as student cell phones in the high school. “Last night a community member brought to my atten- tion something that was on the app Yik Yak that said ‘Watch out New Richmond I am about shoot up the school 2morro’ and we immediately contacted police,” New Richmond High School Principal Mark Bailey said the next day. Bailey, assistant Principal Phil Heflin, Bird and teachers Jim Robinson and Sue Griffin assisted police in the search of approximately 700 students.

classes started on time,”Bird said. “The studentswere calm and coopera-tive and everything wentsmoothly.”

New Richmond policeremained on the sceneand performed bagsearches for students ar-riving late due to juniorand senior options andpost-secondary collegeclasses.

“We realize that par-ents’No.1priority is theirchild’s safety and that hasto come before learning,”

Bailey said. “Studentshave to feel safe and haveto know that we take allthreats seriously.”

Bailey banned cellphone use in the highschool after vulgar andmean Yik Yak posts bystudents. The app isbanned throughout thedistrict via its WiFi net-work and Yik Yak has putup a block on cell towerswithin 1.5 miles of thehigh school. The threathas been turned over toNew Richmond police forinvestigation.

Earlier this schoolyear, a Sycamore HighSchool student posted athreat on Instagram.

Police say that the stu-dent was in the highschool’s media centerwhen he posted a photo ofa silver handgun to Insta-gram with a messagethreatening violenceagainst the school, offi-cials from theMontgome-ry Police Departmentsaid.

The picture was pulled

from a third-party web-site, police believe. Otherstudents informed teach-ers and the student waspromptly removed, po-lice said.

School officials ac-knowledge the challenge,andsay theyarehavepro-cedures and policies inplace.

“We continue to bechallenged like manyschool districts aroundthe increasing number ofsocial media options ouryoung people have,”WestClermont Schools Super-intendent Keith Kline.“(We) are concerned asmany (are) about the re-sponsible use of socialmedia.”

Mariemont Schoolsposts a usage policy on itsofficial Facebook page(Mariemont CitySchools), and is updatingits social media policies,according to director ofcommunications Jose-phine McKenrick.

“We do have someschool organizations thatutilize social media, suchas the high school yearbook. As far as abusegoes, there has been nonethat I am aware of at thistime,” McKenrick said inan email.

The district’s currentpolicy reads, in part:

“The use of the Dis-trict’s network and tech-nology resources by stu-dents is a privilege, not aright. As a prerequisite,students and their par-entsmust signandsubmitaStudentNetworkandIn-ternet Acceptable Use

and Safety formannually.“Social media shall be

defined as Internet-basedapplications (such asFacebook, MySpace,Twitter, et cetera) thatturn communication intointeractive dialogue be-tween users. The Boardauthorizes the instruc-tional staff to access so-cial media from the Dis-trict’s network, providedsuch access has an educa-tional purpose for whichthe instructional staffmember has the prior ap-proval of the Principal.”

“However, personalaccess and use of socialmedia, blogs, or chatrooms from the District’snetwork is expressly pro-hibited and shall subjectstudents to discipline inaccordance with Boardpolicy.”

Erika Daggett, com-munications coordinatorfor the Forest Hills LocalSchool District, said thedistrict has specificguidelines for the use ofFacebook and Twitter aswell as other socialmedia.

“We also have our In-ternet policy which cov-ers appropriate usage,”said Daggett, who alsomanages social media forthe district.

Daggett said she wasnot aware of any specificissues regarding the useof social media by stu-dents in the district.How-ever, she said any situa-tionwouldbereviewedona case by case basis.

“Appropriate actionwould be taken,” she said.

» Goddard School studentsin Anderson Township came toschool with their bicycles andhelmets to take part in theannual Trike-a-Thon for St.Jude Research Hospital. Stu-dents who participated in theevent raised more than $400for St. Jude patients. Eachfall, students ride their bikes,trikes and scooters for St.Jude.

The Trike-a-Thon is a funprogram that exposes stu-dents to proper bicycle ridingsafety habits and is also anopportunity to talk with youngstudents about good citizen-ship. St. Jude Hospital is theonly pediatric cancer re-search center where familiesdo not pay for treatments notcovered by insurance.

Wilson ElementarySchool

» Students at Wilson Ele-mentary are reaching beyondthe stars with their solar sys-tem unit. This year, throughthe use of Skype technology,Jacob Jenscon, an astronomerfrom Pasadena, Calif., is serv-ing as a virtual guest instruc-tor for students with disabil-ities.

“This is the time of yearwhen students are learningabout the moon phases, starsand the solar system,” saidLoretta Kowsky, interventionspecialists for Wilson Ele-mentary. “With technology, weare able to Skype with an ex-pert in the subject from Cali-fornia to bring relevancy andexcitement to this subject.”

Recently, with the help ofJenscon, students werewalked through an experi-ment using an orange, a penciland a flashlight so they couldunderstand the phases of themoon.

Connecting students tofield experts is one of themany ways the district em-powers teachers and studentsto utilize technology in theclassroom.

“With technology, we canovercome learning barriers,such as distance, to bringexperts from across miles intoour classrooms” Kowsky said.“Students will have a taste ofwhat astronomy is like. Thisexperience might ignite apassion and keep their in-terest heightened in the sub-ject.”

Jenscon is also excitedabout the connections beingmade for learning via technol-ogy.

“I feel very lucky to havethe chance to share my excite-ment for science and astrono-my across the country withthe students of Loretta Kow-sky’s class,” said Jenscon, anative of Ohio and a graduateof Ohio State University whois currently working on hisdoctorate in astrophysicsfrom the California Instituteof Technology. “This is a greatexample of how communica-tion technology is helping tomake science accessible toeveryone, regardless of wherethey are in the world. As anastronomer, technology is notonly necessary in my re-search, but it is also an invalu-able resource for helping toengage the next generation offuture scientists!”

ANDERSON TOWNSHIP —With four starters returningfrom last year’s roster, the An-dersonRedskins aren’t hurtingdue to inexperience like theywere last season.

“There is some familiarityamong the girls and all fourhave decent varsity experi-ence,” head coach Chris Carlet-ti said. “We have good size andshould be a good reboundingteam. There is a little bit of con-cern with our defense.”

The Redskins will leanheavily on seniorMadisonTem-ple as both a scorer and re-bounder. Carletti said she hasbeen playing great so far in thepreseason.

“She is one of our leadersand one of the main cogs,” thecoachsaid. “Shewill continue tobe in that role this season.”

Anderson could also getgood production from juniorMaggie Harris, who has beenplaying varsity since her fresh-man year, and Alexis Starks,whoCarletti said has stepped inand done a good job.

Staying inside the Interstate275 loop, the McNicholas’ girlswill feature a young team afterlosing eight seniors from lastyear. But, head coach GreggFlammer said he does like theprogress his team is making.

“We have four girls return-ing that have varsity experi-ence,” thecoachsaid. “Hopeful-ly, they will be able to bring theother girls along quickly.”

TheRockets open the seasonwith games againstMilford andMariemont which Flammersaid will be a tough start beforethe team gets into it’s toughGreater Catholic League Co-EdDivision schedule.

McNicholas will be lookingfor scoring from senior for-ward Payton Ramey. Fellowsenior forward Nicole Geyganwill see an expanded role thisseason after being a part-timeplayer last season.

Rounding out the Rockets’inside prescence is sophomorecenter Jaclyn Geygan. Flam-mer is expecting her “to be aforceon the inside.”Flammer isexpecting junior guard MariaCiampone to contribute to thescoring effort as well.

One player that could have abreakout season is sophomoreguard Katey Byrne.

“We’re expecting big thingsfrom her,” Flammer said.

Miami Valley ChristianAcademy is a full-fledgedmemberof theOHSAAnowandhopes toenjoysomeof the samesuccess their football and vol-leyball teams had in the fall. Ju-lie Vilardo leads the Lady Lionsfor a fourth year.

MVCA was 14-4 last seasonand returns all five starters insenior Devin Lee, sophomoreMichelle Lee, senior MollyBaab, junior Sarah Morelandand sophomore Elena Stenson.New MVCA student and seniorHannah Lain and freshmanDawsyn Vilardo are also ex-pected to help.

“Weareexcited tohaveeightfreshman joining this year’steam,” coach Vilardo said.“Last year we played the wholeseason with only six players.This year, we’ll have enough tohave a JV team.”

The Turpin Spartans areequally excited to have newfaces on this year’s roster in ad-dition to the four players thatreturn from last year.

“We are very excited,” Spar-tan head coach Stacy Alexan-der said. “New faces bring newenergy to the program and itsexciting to get the girls all onthe same page.”

A trio of faces won’t be newfor the Spartans and they willbe relied on to help lead theteam again this season. SeniorMackenzie Campbell and ju-niors Kristin Mills and MeganChristopher return as captains.

“Mack is our leading scorerand captain again this year,” Al-exander said. “We shoot the ballwell and are an offensive-mind-ed team that wants to push thetempo.”

Alexander added that MillsandChristopherwill bring lead-ership and on-court knowledge.Beyond that, she said it’s tooearly to tell who could step upunexpectedly.

“We’re just excited about thenew faces and glad we have theextra time to prepare,” Alexan-der said.

The Spartans don’t open theseason until Dec. 6 against Mil-ford.

Athletic Director Tom Don-nelly stayed in the buildingwhen naming a new girls bas-ketball coach at Walnut HillsHigh School by selecting for-mer Eagles letterman AdamLazar. Lazar is a member of theWalnut Hills social studies de-partment.

After a pair of seasons out ofthe building at Oyler (32-13) La-zar inherits the defending East-ern Cincinnati Conference La-dy Eagles who were 17-6 (11-1ECC) last winter.

Five starters return for Wal-nut in seniors Bereyah Yisrael,Taylor Darks and Amber Wilksand juniors Dawn Alexanderand Arielle Varner. Junior Khi-ra Burton and freshman ReganAnderson will also play keyminutes.

“This is the most tremen-dous leadership I’ve evercoached,” Lazar said. “As a re-sult, we have tremendous teamchemistry. These girls reallylove each other and love play-ing together.”

Darks is the defending ECC

athlete of the year and recentlysigned with Furman after a ju-nior season of 16.8 points pergame, 9.1 rebounds, 2.5 blocksand 2.5 steals per contest.Wilksled the league in rebounding(12.2) and blocks (3.1) andsignedwith La Salle atWalnut’ssigning day on Nov. 12.

“We have10 girls who can allcontribute,” Lazar said. “Welost no seniors from last year, sowe’re experienced. Now, wehave to learn to play with theexpectations. If we can learn toplay structured offense andreally guard in the half court,we’re going to be a fantasticteam.”

The 5-foot-10 Darks is 196points short of 1,000 for her ca-reer.

WalnutHills is scheduled fora tournament Nov. 28-29 beforejumping into league play atMil-ford Dec. 4.

Bulldogs head coach Jim Le-on said St. Ursula will be im-proved after last year’s 6-18overall finish.The teamreturnsthree starters that will helpguide the team through itstough Girls’ Greater CatholicLeague Schedule.

Senior Karlee Proctor willhandle both point guard andshooting guard duties this sea-son and Leon expects her tohave a decent year.

“She always gives 100 per-cent,” he said.

In addition to Proctor, theBulldogs look for productionfrom Madeliene Morrissey, athree-year starter, and sopho-more Riley Jerowwho was sec-ond-team all-GGCL as a fresh-man.

Jerow led the league in scor-ing formost of the seasonbyav-eraging 14 points to go witheight rebounds.Of the team’s24games, Jerow saw action in 15due to injury issues.

“We have a chance to com-pete this year, but Mount NotreDame appears to be tops in theconference again,” Leon said.“As the yearmoves on, wewantto be playing our best basket-ball.

“The future of this teamlooks real good,” he added.

Summit Country Day re-turns four of its five startersfrom a year ago including itstop three scorers. On top of thatexperience, head coach BethSimmons said her team is one-deep at each position with theaddition of four talented fresh-men to the roster.

“The impact of that is beingable to press other teams formost of the game,” Simmonssaid. “The duration of our de-fense is going to be important.”

The Silver Knights finishedthird in the league last year andhave designs on being theMVC’s top team this season.

Summit boasts more than acouple players to watch thisseason including seniors GurlCampbell and Kiley Barnardand junior Gabbi Gehner.

Campbell scored 11.2 pointsper game last season to go withher two thefts per contest. Bar-nard chipped in better thaneight points per game alongwith six rebounds.

Gehner averaged 13.3 pointsand 10.2 rebounds last seasonand has been the team’s leadingscorer thepast twoseasons. Sheis included among the Enquir-er’s 25 area girls’ basketballplayers to watch this season.

MASON—The seeming-lyannualGreaterCatholicLeague South postseasontilt between Moeller andSt. Xavier high schoolstook place at Dwire FieldinMasonNov. 22.

A little less than twomonths after their lastmeeting Sept. 26, Moellershut out St. Xavier 21-0 tokeep their hopes for athird consecutive state ti-tle still alive.

The Bombers literallydrained the clock in thefirst quarter, taking theopening kickoff and hold-ing possession for overnine minutes. However,senior Ben Glines of St.Xavier was stopped atfourth and one on the 13-yard line and the Crusad-ers kept the Bombers offof the scoreboard.

After one quarter, thescore was knotted at 0with Moeller having runjust four plays.

“We did what we want-ed to do; we just didn’tcome away with anypoints,” St. Xavier coachSteve Specht said. “That’s

on me. Our kids playedtheir hearts out.”

The Crusaders madeup for it as the secondquarter began when sen-iorMattCrablefoundBos-ton College-bound seniorChasePankeyfor42yardsto the Bombers’ 13. Threeplays later, Crable foundjunior tight end JakeHausmann from a yardout for the game’s firstscore.

St. Xavier drove to theMoeller 32 with anothertime-consuming drive inthe second frame, but Eli-jah Taylor stopped juniorquarterback Matt Wit-trock in the backfield onfourth and two.

Moeller would get atouchdown toss from Cra-ble to senior Jack Toomb,but a penalty brought itback and the half wouldend with Moeller leading7-0.

In the third quarter,Wittrock drove St. Xavierto theMoeller16 on a passto senior Matt Donnelly.Moeller senior Jack Mey-er then sacked Wittrockfor a 12-yard loss. TheBombers had to try a 43-yard field goal and the at-

temptbyseniorMylesHo-manwaswide right.

Moeller would driveinto Bombers’ territorylate in the third, but aMattCoghlin 50-yard field goaltrywasshortandthequar-terendedwith theCrusad-ers clinging to their 7-0

lead.In the fourth, Moeller

would strike again withCrable hitting junior KyleButz fora longgain,whicheventually led to sopho-more Hunter Hughesplunging in from the twoto give the Crusaders a

14-0 lead.Inhurry-upmodeinthe

final stanza, Wittrock ledSt. Xavier to the 25 oncompletions to junior Ty-rone McFarlin and seniorRonnie Fricke. On fourthand 16, Moeller seniorChristian Wersel snuffed

out the drive on anotherattempt to Fricke as theCrusaders took over theball.

Moeller later iced thegame with 3:03 remainingwhen seniorNoahAble in-tercepted Wittrock andraced 36 yards to glory.Able then tied a ribbon onthe game with anotherpickwith 2:01 remaining.

“The defense has beengreat,” Moeller coachJohn Rodenberg said.“They bought into thescheme and they’re reallyplaying as a unit. Able de-serves some recognitionbecause we put him insome tough situations.”

The Crusaders andBombers are now both10-3.

“In our three losses,weshot ourselves in the footin the first quarter,” Ro-denberg said. “We main-tained and had that bighold in the first quarter. Ifeel proud for the guys.”

Moeller now takes onWayne at 7 p.m., Saturday,Nov. 29, at Mason. TheCrusaders and Warriorslast played Nov. 3, 2012, inthe playoffs with Moellerprevailing 43-21.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Nov. 19 questionWhat is your favorite local

holiday event/tradition/deco-ration(s)? Whatmakes it spe-cial?

“There are many greatdisplays and traditions in theTristate area. It is hard tosingle one out. But the DukeEnergyMiniature Trains dis-play now at theMuseum Cen-ter is hard to top. Plus with theother displays at theMuseumCenter it is in an even betterlocation now. Also noted is thewonderful train display nowdone by Green Township.Sometimes imitation is thesincerest form of flattery. Itseems back in the 1950s everykid got a miniature train setfor Christmas. Go figure!”

T.D.T.

Nov. 12 questionDo you think “Christmas

Creep” starts too early?Whenshould the holiday season be-gin?

“This is a huge hot buttonwith me: absolutely yes,Christmas Creep starts waytoo early. When you start see-ing Christmas stuff in storesand even on some houses be-fore Halloween, something isvery wrong. I like Christmasand the religious reason forthe season, but the commer-cial aspect of it has gotten wayout of hand and so clouds theentire last three months of theyear that it is not an enjoyabletime of the year for me.

“Black Friday? Now BlackThanksgiving? Heck, it seemslike Black November andDecember. People, stop themadness, please. Here’s mysimple plan: No Christmas

decorations before Thanks-giving and they all come downon New Years Day. Avoidshopping on any Black Any-thing day. Go for a hike in thewoods instead, infinitely morerelaxing and free too. Buysimple meaningful, affordablegifts or make something forthe gifts. Don’t mortgage thebetter part of the coming newyear by going deeply in debtfor Christmas. Enjoy the sea-son, and smile!”

M.J.F.

“As long as they call itChristmas, I don’t care if it ison the 4th of July. When theword ‘Holiday’ or the ‘Season’is substituted they aren’t go-ing to get my business any-time. For those that don’t cele-brate Christmas, I am all foryou having any ads you wishand shop anywhere you likeduring the ‘Christmas cele-bration.’

“No one makes me shop orbuy what I don’t want, eventhough I agree with my wife,my old habit of only shoppingon Christmas Eve got a littlesilly.

“Merry Christmas!”Don Brown

A look at Veterans Daycelebrations in ClermontCounty and Eastern HamiltonCounty:

Wenstrup thanks TQLvets

One voice broke the silencein the cafeteria.

Total Quality Logisticsteammember Preston Wadeopened the company’s Veter-an’s Day celebration luncheonwith an a capella rendition of“My Country ‘Tis of Thee” foran audience of more than 50military veterans and active-duty reservists in attendanceNov. 11 at TQL headquarters.

Wade served in the UnitedStates Army from1988 to1996, beginning his career inthe medical corps beforebecoming an Army Ranger.He is one of more than 100Cincinnati-based TQL em-ployees with military experi-ence.

U.S. Rep. BradWenstrup(R-2nd District) – himself aBronze Star recipient andlieutenant colonel in the U.S.Army – addressed the TQLservice men and women be-fore working the room, shak-ing hands and thanking eachof them individually.

“The wars of the past werea lot different than the onesour parents and grandparentsfought,” Wenstrup said. “Weknew who the enemy was andwe knew when the wars wereover. You younger vets havehad a very different experi-

ence. But ultimately, our mis-sion is the same.

“We live in the greatestnation the world has everseen. We subjugate no one andwe strive for freedom allaround the world.

“And for all of you servedin peacetime, you know therewould be no peace withoutyou. We’re grateful for whatyou’ve done, too.”

Wenstrup said militaryservice is a rare calling.

“Only 1 percent of Amer-icans have served,” he said.“You’re an elite group. Thinkof what those veterans havedone for this country. Youcome from a background ofhard work, discipline andsacrifice. You understandteamwork and reaching ob-jectives.”

TQL executive vice presi-dent Kerry Byrne agreed.

“We hire vets and mem-bers of the National Guardbecause they possess theskills and values we are look-ing for – an outstanding workethic, the ability to learn newskills quickly, and the tenacityfor creating success in anysituation,” he said.

“We’re known for cele-brating a lot of accomplish-ments here, but it’s especiallyimportant for us to celebratethe men and women in ourcompany who served thecountry.”

TQL consistently earnsrecognition for its work withveterans, most recently re-

ceiving the Center of AmericaAward for Outstanding Com-mitment and Leadership Oct.23 during a ceremony at TheHall of Flags in Washington,D.C.

McNicholas High SchoolOnWednesday, Nov. 11,

students and faculty at Arch-bishopMcNicholas HighSchool assembled in honor ofmore than 200 McNicholasalumni who have served theirnation in the armed forces.

During the hour-long ser-vice, the school rededicatedits military memorial, whichcommemorates the lives offive McNicholas graduateswho paid the ultimate sacri-fice while serving their coun-try.

Gathering together nearthe memorial, the studentbody joined the nation’s veter-ans and the families of thoseMcNicholas alumni who havefallen in the line of duty. So-cial Studies teacher FrankLowden began the ceremonyby offering a bagpipe call toorder, ushering in members ofthe American Legion Post 484,who presented the colors forthe Pledge of Allegiance. Thestudent body participated bywaving American flags andjoining their school LiturgyChoir in the singing of theNational Anthem and “GodBless America.”

CE-0000603366

Don’t get it twisted.While the first

sentence you read onNewtown’s websitesays the village used

to be part of Anderson Town-ship, the village is neither try-ing to trade off the township’scachet or nor feels the need to,says Newtown Vice Mayor Da-ryl Zornes.

SixColumbiaTownshipbusi-nesses along Wooster Pike thatwanted to band together andbrand together recently rolledout an initiative calling theircollective businesses “Marie-montCrossing”after thehistor-ic, tony community next door.

But Zornes said Newtown’sreference to Anderson Town-ship is a matter of clarification– and getting its financial due.

“It’s mainly for license-platetax purposes,” Zornes said.

“You see, $5 of each licenseplate fee is a tax that goes to thehighway fund of themunicipal-ity for up keep of the roadways.

“If someone claims they’rein Anderson Township, insteadof Newtown, then that tax goesto Anderson unless someone at(the Bureau of Motor Vehicles)catches the mistake,” Zornessaid.

“Also for income – or earn-ings - tax purposes.”

The Columbia Townshipbusinesses that launched Ma-riemont Crossing are not thefirst businesses or organiza-tions to take liberties with theirlocations.

It’s not uncommon for realestate agents to list property inOakley and Norwood as “in theHyde Park area” or for organi-zations in villages and town-ships to claim the nearest well-known city – often Cincinnati –when advertising their loca-tions.

Columbia Township TrusteeDavid Kubicki says he has noproblem with the fact that theWooster Pike businesses decid-ed to brand together as Marie-mont Crossing” and not “Co-lumbia Township Crossing.”

“It’s up to the business own-ers to make their own choiceson how they want to brandthemselves,” Kubicki said.

“That portion of WoosterPike is so closely associatedwithMariemont and those busi-nesses taxes go to Mariemontschools.

“I like to take the approachof, ‘We are all in this together,’”Kubicki said.

“And I hope to do more stra-tegic partnering with Marie-mont in the future.

“Anything we can do to helpour local businesses, ourschools and keep our taxes lowis a good thing,” Kubicki said.

Bobby Slattery is co-ownerof Fifty West Brewing Co., oneof the Columbia Township com-panies involved with Marie-mont Crossing.

He said business and com-munity leaders developed theMariemont Crossing initiative– including itsname–aftermar-ket research and consultingwith consumers, local politi-cians and other business own-ers.

“After seeing what great en-ergy The Banks brought todowntown Cincinnati, we saw

an opportunity to do somethingsimilar in our own neck of thewoods,” Slattery said.

For now, Mariemont Cross-ing begins at the intersection ofWooster Pike and NewtownRoad and extends west to in-cludeFiftyWestBrewingCo. at7668 Wooster Pike, Go NativeFit and Hahana Beach at 7605Wooster Pike, Heritage Tast-ings at the Cottage at 7664Wooster Pike, Mariemont Liv-ery at 7625 Wooster Pike andPizzelii Brick Oven Pizza at7639 Wooster Pike.

The Mariemont Crossingbusinesses hope to convince

other businesses to join, to ex-pand west to Mariemont Prom-enade– also in Columbia Town-ship at 7201Wooster Pike – andto tie into planned bike trails.

Mariemont doesn’t object tobusinesses in neighboring com-munities within the MariemontCity School District using “Ma-riemont” in their businessnames or location description,said Sue Singleton, Mariemontstaff assistant.

“We share our school facili-ties and parks with other com-munities in the school systemand having themuse theMarie-mont name simplifies things in

that regard,” Singleton said.“It also draws more custom-

ers to our local businesses.”Things get dicey when real

estate agents advertise proper-ty as being in Mariemont whenit is not, Singleton said.

“This has led to people wholiveoutsideof thevillageofMa-riemont to mistakenly assumethey are entitled to the village’samenities, such as our commu-nity pool and tennis courts,”Singleton said.

“Those facilities are only forresidents living within the vil-lage limits.”

Some people may be con-

fused about where they liveevenwhere no one tries to put aspin on the truth.

For example, residents maynot know that Loveland is inthree counties and Milford intwo and that that means theirneighbors may have differentservices provided and differ-ent voting issues.

One man who moved to Ma-deira from Texas was unhappyto learn he lived on a sliver ofland crossing into Cincinnatiand that his children had to goto school in the Queen City.

The Cincinnati/NorthernKentucky International Air-port may be the mother of allconfusion and name-engineer-ing.

Theairport is inBooneCoun-ty, owned and operated by theKenton County Airport Boardand its code, CVG, stands forCovington, the closest citywhen the Greater CincinnatiAirport opened in 1947.

Kentucky officials who be-lieved changing the airport’sname to include mention of theBluegrass state would boosteconomic development andtourism south of theOhio Riversuccessfully campaigned tograb some of its glamour byconvincing the airport board torename it the Cincinnati/North-ern Kentucky InternationalAirport in 1991.

My clothesline is lad-en today, not with laun-dry, but with three inchesof snow and ice - so much

that it dipsin the mid-dle.

I wasstunnedwhen Iwent outearly tofeed andwater the“girls”/chickens.What a

beautiful sight. The snowclung to everything,from the tallest pine treeto the overhang on theouthouse to the trailingthyme in the herb gar-den. It was so cold that Ihad to take boiling waterto the chicks. After just acouple of minutes, theydipped their beaks intopleasantly warmwater.

Nutella swirl poundcake

This cake was one ofthe baked goods for saleat Western Hills gardenclub’s harvest event. Itintrigued me because itcame with a recipe. Afterone bite I had to make itwith my homemade Nu-tella. In spite of the Nu-tella, the cake is not toosweet. A nice gift fromthe kitchen, as it can befrozen for a month.

1 -1/2 cups all-pur-pose flour, plus morefor dusting

4 large eggs, roomtemperature

2 teaspoons vanilla3/4 teaspoon baking

powder1/4 teaspoon salt2 sticks unsalted

butter, softened1 -1/4 cups sugarOne13-ounce jar

Nutella, warmed if nec-essary for easingspreading

Preheat oven to 325degrees. Lightly greaseand flour a 9x5 loaf pan.Lightly beat eggs withvanilla. Whisk flour withbaking powder and salt.Beat butter with sugar onmedium-high until fluffy,about 3 minutes. On me-dium-low, gradually beat

egg mixture until fullyincorporated. Add flourmixture in 3 batches,beating on low betweenadditions until just in-corporated. Continue tobeat for 30 seconds long-er. Spread one-third ofbatter in pan, then spreadhalf of Nutella on top.Repeat with anotherthird of batter and rest ofNutella. Top with remain-ing batter. Lightly swirlNutella into batter. Don’tover mix. Bake for about1 hour and 15 minutes,until toothpick insertedin center comes outclean.

Let cool in pan for 15minutes. Invert onto wirerack, turn right side upand let cool completely.

Gilding the lily: Aftercooling, drizzle on a glazemade with 1/2 cup con-fectioners sugar andeither 1 tablespoonbrewed espresso or milkor water with 1 teaspoonvanilla.

Tip from Rita’skitchen:

When freezing bakedgoods, cool completelybefore freezing.

Otherwise, moisturebuilds up in the freezer,causing stickiness.

Miriam’s spicedpecans

One of the nicestthings about what I do isthe people I meet. LikeDiane Blackburn. Shefixed a delicious saladfor Village gardeners ofGlendale’s meeting andtopped it with her mom’specans. When she toldme the story of the pe-cans, I knew I had toshare it with you. Here’swhat Diane said: “I espe-cially want you to havemymom’s recipe for hereasy-but-delicious holi-day pecans. This is therecipe, written in herown hand, that I hadreproduced, and enclosedin the acknowledgementnotes sent after her fu-neral-- a personal littlegift from her-- to familyand friends. Many haveexpressed their delightin receiving her recipe.

Some have nowmade thepecans themselves forthe first time, after re-ceiving them in Christ-mas boxes frommymomin past years.”

1 cup sugar1/4 cupwater2 Tablespoons cinna-

mon2 cups pecan halvesHave a bowl with a

tight fitting lid ready (Iuse Tupperware) with ¾cup sugar and 1Table-spoon cinnamon inside.Cook the remaining sug-ar, water, and cinnamonand bring to a boil, stir-ring constantly. Cookuntil it forms a soft ball

when dropped into aglass of cold water, just afew drops at a time. Thesecret here is to work

very fast.When the syrup is

ready, dump in the pe-cans and toss with a

wooden spoon until allpecans are coated. Thenput them in the bowl,secure the lid, and shake.Dump them on a cookiesheet lined with waxpaper. Separate thosethat are stuck together.That’s it.

You find yourselfsuddenly in need of alocksmith and turn to theYellow Pages or callInformation on yourphone. When you do youcould be asking for trou-ble thanks to bait-and-switch tactics used byseveral companiesaround the nation.

The Ohio AttorneyGeneral last month sueda Portland-area lock-smith operation andcharged the owner withviolating consumer pro-tection laws.

Attorney GeneralMike DeWine says, “Con-sumers are lured in by a

low initialprice, butthen arechargedmuch high-er rates.”

I report-ed on thisscam sev-en yearsago when aDayton,

Kentucky, woman toldme her fiancé calledInformation to find alocksmith. He was giventhe name of a firm thatquoted him $50 over thephone to come and opentheir front door. But, shesays, when the locksmith

got there the price quick-ly jumped to $149 be-cause of all the differentfees they tacked on.

It turned out that com-pany was operating outof New York and hiredlocal people to take itsreferrals. The attorneygeneral says that’s exact-ly what that Portlandfirm was doing – eventhough consumersthought they were deal-ing with a local company.

DeWine says, “Thesekinds of operations takeadvantage of consumersand unfairly undercutlocal, honest locksmithbusinesses.”

Another problem withsuch companies is some-times they have to breakthe lock in order to get itopen. That’s what hap-pened to that Dayton,Kentucky, woman eventhough most skilled lock-smiths can open lockswithout breaking them.

In fact, that’s one ofthe things to be alert forwhen hiring a locksmith.Be skeptical if a lock-smith says the only wayto open the lock is tobreak it.

Also, the attorneygeneral says, be carefulif a business operatesunder multiple names. It

could be doing so to hideunsatisfactory reportsfrom the Better BusinessBureau. That Portlandfirm used several differ-ent company names andwebsites to make it ap-pear it was operatinglocally. Instead, all callswere routed to an out-of-state call center that tookcalls from throughout thecountry, according to thelawsuit.

So, the best advice isnot to wait until the lastminute to find a lock-smith. Instead, whenyou’re not in a hurry, getreferences for lock-smiths from friends and

family. Be sure to look upthe locksmith’s addres-s—and actually go thereto make sure the compa-ny really is local.

I checked out a lock-smith company once thatused a real street nameand city for its location.The problem is when Iwent to that locationthere was nothing there –literally nothing – therewas no building at all atthat address.
