"The homes in CamargoRidge will be built under a mas-ter development plan that al-lows us to maintain the Robert
Lucke Group level of high qual-ity, craftsmanship and style,"said Scott Lucke, companypresident. "Our strategy, as acustom homebuilder, is to findthese smaller, infill-type sites inwell-known, upscale communi-ties, then design and build thehouse of a lifetime for our cli-ents.
"At Camargo Ridge, we'realso offering lots of between 1-1.25 acres, which is unheard-ofin Madeira."
In 2015, Robert Lucke Groupalso plans to develop homes aspart of the Villages at FourBridges in Liberty Townshipand Rivercrest in Warren Coun-ty.
Thirty homes with prices
starting at $390,000 are envi-sioned as part of the ButlerCounty project. Custom patiohomes with golf membershipswill be part of the Villages atFour Bridges. Lucke is amongthe builders at Rivercrest offMontgomery Road in HamiltonTownship.

Indian Hill High School’s up-coming production of “Fid-dler on the Roof” is more thanjust a musical.The director, Bridget Leak,
tried to make it as authentic aspossible. In an effort to accom-plish this, a rabbi from HebrewUnion College spoke with thestudents and shared some of hisown experiences as a fan of thetheater.
“Fiddler on the Roof” will beperformed 7:30 p.m. Fridaythrough Saturday, as well as 2p.m., Saturday, Feb. 19 through21, at Indian Hill High School,6865 Drake Road.
“I want to make sure it is asauthentic as possible,” Leak said.“It’s looking at all of the details.”
Volunteer Melanie Toler,whose son Mark will play thelead rolew of Tevye, connectedwith Rabbi Ken Kanter, assistantdean and director of the Rabbin-ical School at Hebrew Union Col-lege.
Kanter, who has studied Juda-ism and its connection to Amer-ican theater, provided the stu-dents with information that willhelp make the production accu-rate in its presentation of Jewishculture.
For example, Leak said Kan-ter told the cast that it is impor-tant to have two candles for ascene detailing a Sabbath prayerand that a book read by a charac-ter should be read back to frontsince it is a Hebrew text.
It is this attention to detailthat Leak says is important to anaudience.
A fan of the movie version,Leak said her own production of“Fiddler on the Roof” will bemore colorful than the typicalproductions of it which are sat-urated in muted tones.
“I want to make sure this play
has life to it,” she said.Mark Toler, who is a senior at
Indian Hill High School, said hefeels a responsibility to the Jew-ish population represented in theproduction.
“This is a play that carries alot of weight,” he said. “We havean opportunity to honor thosepeople,” Toler said, referring toHolocaust victims.
Toler said the production alsoaddresses topics such as tradi-tion and community.
Tickets are $12 adults, $10 stu-dents under 18, and $10 for theSaturday matinee. For informa-tion: http://bit.ly/1vuQCrc

BRIEFLY
The Madeira Law andSafety Committee ironedout the details of the his-toric district ordinance toprepare it for its return tocity council.
The committee firstdecided what the historicdistrict, which is beingcreated by an amend-ment to the town charter,which was approved byvoters in November, willbe called. Issue 13 madethe Hosbrook House,7014 Miami Ave., Much-more House, 7010 MiamiAve., and train depot,7701 Railroad Ave., partof a historic district.
The ordinance creat-ing the district and thecommission that willoversee it was tabled bycouncil Jan. 26 so it couldbe discussed by commit-tees first. The ordinancemust make it throughthree readings of councilbefore it is adopted.
The committee agreedto change the name on theordinance to the MadeiraHistoric District. The dis-trict was originally calledthe Miami Historic Dis-
trict, which City Man-ager Tom Moeller saidMayor Mike Steur sug-gested. t Doug Oppenhei-mer, one of the residentsbehind Issue 13, suggest-ed The Cleo J. HosbrookHistoric District.
“(Madeira HistoricDistrict) is what the vot-ers approved,” Council-man and committeemember Rob Steier said.
The committee alsodiscussed the name andmakeup of the commis-sion that will oversee thedistrict. The committeedecided to name it theMadeira Historical Pres-ervation Commission.
The committee agreedthe commission would in-clude five members. Thecommittee kept the posi-tions that were outlinedin the ordinance. Thecommission will have ahistorian, a registered ar-chitect, someone with ex-perience in construction,a member of PlanningCommission and a mem-ber of city council.
The historian has beenthe most talked- about po-sition so far, Theis said,adding Oppenheimerwrote a letter wanting the
Madeira Historical Soci-ety to have the authorityto appoint someone. Shesaid Rayan Coutinho, whois filling in for Bob Mal-loy as the city law direc-tor, looked over the sug-gestion.
“As council we cannotgive up our duties and itgoes against the charterto allow another body toappoint people to ourcommissions. We cannottransfer powers or dutiesto any non-charter of-fices or organizations,”Theis said.
Moeller added the waythe ordinance is writtennow, it does not state thatthe commission mem-bers must be Madeiraresidents. The committeeagreed to bring that upbefore full council Feb. 9.
Moeller said the ap-pointment will be donethrough the regular pro-cedure of being vetted bythe Administration andPersonnel Committeeand approved by council.
“The Madeira Histori-cal Society will be invitedto submit nominations tofill openings of the histo-rian; however, city coun-cil will be under no dutyto appoint said nomineeto the commission,” theordinance reads.
Members of the com-mittee expressed con-cern about the scope ofthe commission’s abili-ties still being open-end-ed.
“We need to narrowwhat they should do, so alot of these questionsdon’t pop up in the fu-ture,” Steier said.

Every cloud has a silverlining. I was reminded of thatwhen I hung towels on the linein almost zero weather.
My husband, Frank, told methey’d freeze. My answer was,“It’s sunny outside so it will be
warm enough forthem to dry.”After a couple ofhours, I wentoutside to see ifthey were dry.Not only werethey not dry, theline had brokenand the laundrywas frozen sohard that gettingthe woodenclothespins out
was almost impossible.The silver lining? The
ground was also frozen stiff andnot muddy so the laundrystayed clean.
I wound up hanging them onmy Amish drying rack near thewood stove.
With Lent right around thecorner, you should find somegood deals on seafood. Here’s anice recipe that really sparksup the flavor of salmon.
Oven roasted salmonwith herbs
If your salmon has a thinlayer of dark fat on it, leave itthere - it contains lots of Omega3s. Some folks like to scrape itoff for looks, but not me.

Healing bath saltsRemember when you were a
kid and Mom had you soak sorefeet in Epsom salts?
Adding Epsom salt/magne-sium sulfate (not edible) to bathsalts helps you feel better be-cause your skin can absorb the
magnesium, relaxing musclesand nerves. Baking soda helpssoothe skin. Especially nicewith some drops of essential oil,like lavender, added to it.
Mix together:2 cups Epsom salts1 cup sea salt1 cup baking sodaEssential oil - about 20
drops - optPour a cup under hot run-
ning water in tub.

texture:“Sometimes after my rice is
cooked, it sticks together and ishard to separate.”
Once the rice is cooked,remove pan from heat andplace a folded kitchen towel orsturdy paper towel over thepan, replace the lid and let situp to 10 minutes.
What happens here is theresidual heat continues tosteam the rice while the toweltakes up excess moisture. Ialways fluff my rice with a forkbefore removing from pan.

A publication of
Mr. Edward Levy recentlyposted an excellent conceptfor turning some attitudes to amore positive outlook. Heargues forcefully that one’scourteous behavior can affectthe attitude of others.
Language is also one of thefirst clues one has of another’sattitude and character. Wehave received hundreds ofphone sales solicitations inwhich the conversation be-gins, “Is James there?” Myfirst thoughts are, ‘how pre-sumptuous,’ ‘how abrupt,’‘how rude,’ and ‘who wants toknow.’ If you want to make aconnection on the phone, andthe other person is unknownto you, a brief introduction isin order.
We have often hosted peo-
ple from othercountries whowere visitingus for busi-ness purposes.One suchmeeting in-cluded twoFrenchmenwho repre-sented a med-ical device
manufacturer. The conversa-tions were long and technical.To speed the conversation,when they asked one anotherquestions, they would speak inFrench. Knowing a littleFrench, I was able to pick upabout 40 percent of what theywere saying.
To my astonishment, inevery conversation they
would call each other “sir”(monsieur), they would alsosay “if you please” (si vousplaît), “thank you sir” (mercimonsieur) and almost everyother word denoting courtesythat I remember people usingin the 1940s and 1950s here inthe states.
Later, on the drive to theairport, we discussed the im-portance of language, and Imentioned the courtesies oftheir language. They werequick to point out that thingswere changing in France, andthat these courtesies wereless often used. At that timethe French were quite con-cerned about the infusion ofEnglish and slang expressionsin their language. They want-ed to keep French, as they
knew it, as their language.I too, continue to hold the
door, for everyone. Back inthe 1960s, there became abacklash, mostly by youngwomen, who would retort, “Ican open my own door.” I un-derstood their need for inde-pendence and did not respond.
The words please and thankyou seem to have beendropped from our language;or, how about a simple “hello”or nod, when passing a lonestranger in a less traffickedarea, or on an elevator. Yes,sir and no ma’am seem only tobe used by military personnel.I have been asked many timesif I was “military.” Youngerwomen would sometimes say,“I’m no ma’am,” to which Iwould reply, “of course not; it
is just an expression of cour-tesy.”
I’m curious; does one actu-ally take a working cell phoneon a date, what about on a jobinterview, or during a phys-ical exam? I believe they do,as I see signs in doctor’s of-fices asking that phones beturned off.
Texting and talking on thephone while attempting todrive are both very rude andextremely dangerous. Bothactivities involve erratic driv-ing patterns.
We can improve our writ-ten and spoken language,making others feel betterabout themselves.

Feb. 5 questionThe governors of Ohio and
Kentucky announced a newplan to help pay for a newBrent-Spence Bridge, whichincludes a 50 percent toll dis-count for daily users of thebridge. Is this a good idea? Whyor why not?
“Charging tolls in order topay for the bridge is a goodway to go because there areprobably more people whouse the bridge ‘just passingthrough’ than live in the area.Giving a discount to locals is agreat way to take some of thesting out of it. Make the truck-ers pay the most since theirbehemoth loads take life outof the bridge the fastest. How-ever, the only viable way to
collect tolls is the high speedEZ-Pass way. Anything elsewill cause a huge increase incongestion and delays.”

Jan. 29 questionWhat do you think about
President Obama’s proposal topay for two years of communi-ty college, effectively expand-ing school to K-14 by taxing 529college savings plans?
“The president has walkedback his proposal to tax 529college savings plans; howev-er, he will still be wanting thefunding from somewhereelse. I think it is just a freebieto promote his nanny state.The graduation rate for com-munity colleges is not thatgreat, but paid tuition wouldnot necessarily improve that.What our kids need is schoolchoice and improved instruc-tion for K-12.”

There’s no denying it: OldMan Winter is a grumpy, oldsoul. So, you may want toreview and dispel a few ofthe myths that circulateabout winter weather’s ef-fect on your health. Here arefive of the most common:
Myth No. 1: You can getsick from cold weather
No. You get sick becauseof infectious pathogens, sick-ness is your body’s responseto these invaders. Coldweather doesn’t put them inyour body.
So why does cold and fluseason occur in winter?You’re inside more, enclosedin a tighter space, hidingfrom the cold. The windowsaren’t open, so air circulatesless in your home. Germsfloating around in the air, orliving on your home’s sur-faces, have more opportuni-ties to get into your body.Covering coughs and sneezes,washing your hands fre-quently, and keeping yourhome clean are the best waysto avoid a cold or flu.
Myth No. 2: Allergiesaren’t as bad in thewinter
It depends on what you’reallergic to. If you’re allergicto pollen or ragweed, thenyes, your symptoms are prob-
ably non-existent in the win-ter. But if you’re allergic tomold, mildew, or dust— all ofwhich are indoor allergens—your allergies are probablyworse in the winter. Runningan HEPA filter in your homeand changing out the filterevery couple months, wear-ing a dust mask while dustingand vacuuming, and fre-quently cleaning your bath-room and kitchen surfaceswith a bleach solution canhelp to alleviate symptoms.
Myth No. 3: Vitamin Ccan prevent colds
It’s important to getenough vitamin C (the FDArecommends 75 mg daily)just for your body to operatenormally, but increasingvitamin C intake over thedaily recommended level isnot an effective safeguardagainst a cold-causing virus.
Myth No. 4: Chickensoup can cure a cold
Not exactly. There is noknown cure for the commoncold. There is, however, evi-dence that eating chickensoup can help to alleviatesymptoms. Chicken soup is
full of healthy proteins. Itprovides necessary electro-lytes, like sodium and potas-sium, which can easily be lostin sweat during the height ofa fever. If colorful vegetableslike carrots, celery, or leafygreens are added, it providesantioxidant nutrients that thebody needs to repair cellulardamage caused by the virus.
Myth No. 5: A glass ofspirits can keep youwarm
In olden days, it wasthought that drinking ethanolmade a person’s blood warm-er. Many people who havehad a sip of alcohol can tellyou that one begins to feel aninner flush of warmth as onedrinks.
But that warm, flushedfeeling isn’t because of yourbody heating up— it’s be-cause drinking alcohol dilatescapillaries and causes bloodto rush toward the extrem-ities.Taking a nip of holidaycheer can certainly make youfeel warm and fuzzy, but it’snot a treatment or cure for achill.
Don’t believe the myths.Be smart and stay well.

If you have a child over 8,chances are, you have heard ofthe PARCC assessments. Ourchildren have spent countlesshours in preparation for theassessments, scheduled tobegin Feb. 16.
We, as parents, have decidedour childrenwill not betaking thePARCC assess-ment and havechosen to “opt-out” of all stateachievementassessmentsused to assessstudent aca-demic growthdesigned bythe Partner-ship for As-sessment of
Readiness for College and Ca-reers, or any assessment equiv-alent in nature and/or align-ment to the Common CoreState Standards for the schoolyear.
Before making this decisionwe had a meeting with theprincipal of our school andasked the following questions:
1. How many standardizedtests are our children taking?
2. How much time does theadministration of each test takeincluding practicing, home-work and testing?
3. What is the specific aca-demic purpose for each one?
4. How will these tests affectour children’s grades or pass/fail into the next grade?
5. For each test, will theteachers see his results andhave a chance to adjust in-struction to help as needed?
Go to your child’s teacher,principal, superintendent orschool board and ask thesequestions or some of your own.
We feel that these assessmentsare not in the best interest ofour children. Assessmentsshould not be studied or prac-ticed. The time being spent onthe prep, practice and studyingfor these assessments is awaste of classroom and home-work time. Do not support the“teaching to the test” mentality.
The Ohio Revised Code3302.036 provides “safe har-bor” to school districts in re-gards to the PARCC assess-ments. In part, it states:
» Prohibits the report cardratings issued for the 2014-2015school year from being consid-ered in determining whether aschool district or school is sub-ject to sanctions or penalties.
» Prohibits the departmentfrom (1) assigning an overallletter grade for school districtsand schools for the 2014-2015school year, and (2) rankingdistricts and schools based onoperating expenditures, perfor-mance achievements, and otherspecified items for the 2014-2015 school year.
On Jan. 29, State Rep. JimBuchy filed emergency HB7 toprovide “safe harbor” for stu-dents whose parents choose torefuse PARCC assessments.Again, in part, it states:
» prohibits 2014-2015 PARCCscores from being used forpromotion or retention at anypoint in a child’s education.
Losing a third of the schoolyear to test-related activities,for a test that is not for thebenefit of the student is not intheir best interest. There arebetter ways to evaluate stu-dents, teachers and schooldistricts.

INDIAN HILL — With justfour seniors on the roster andsometimes none on the floor,Indian Hill High School’s boysbasketball team may still getnear last year’s win total.
Though last season’s teamfeatured 6-foot-8 “twin tow-ers” Lucas Gould and KarlKoster, the 2015 Braves stillhave some size and have theadded ability to hit from theoutside. In the 6-foot-2 to 6-foot 4 range, junior Nick Hei-del and seniors Daniel Harderand Josh Burgher feature fineshooting form.
When 6-foot-1 freshmanColin Shaw and sophomoreguard Matteo Fiore begin
bombing from the outside, In-dian Hill can be dangerous.Against Deer Park on Feb. 3,the Braves had 30 points at thehalf, then erupted for 31 in thethird quarter alone.
“We work on it every day,”Burch said of his team’s pe-rimeter offense. “We workreal hard on how to get intoshots and stuff. We’re capableof shooting that way.”
Sophomore twins Reed andDawson Aichholz also scraptogether points and rebounds.Reed Aichholz is 6-foot-5 andplayed varsity last season.Coming off the bench for moreboards are 6-foot-5 senior WillLightcap and 6-foot-6 juniorJake Fry.

When the caroms cometo the big men and the or-ange sphere finds the cyl-inder, Indian Hill has whatCBS college analyst ClarkKellogg calls “spurtabili-ty.”
“I think we can put 80points up on guys as longas they’re playing thesame style that we are,”Burch said. “We playedMadeira and they kind oftook the air out of it a littlebit. We had 25 in the fourthquarter, but didn’t do muchin the first three.”
The Braves have yet toreach 80 points at press-time, but they have hit thebrakes in a few contestswhen they had big leads.With several players capa-ble of getting the hot hand,the Indian Hill coachdoesn’t care who scores.
“We give green lights toeverybody, but we wantthem to know their range,”Burch said. “We’re not ateam that dictates who’ssupposed to be taking all ofthe shots.”
Heidel leads Indian Hillat around 17 points pergame, followed by thefreshman Shaw at 14. Reed
Aichholz jumped to varsi-ty early due to his height,but Shaw is the first guardBurch has brought to thebig show.
“He’s going to get bet-ter and better,” Burch said.“People think he’s a greatvarsity player now. Heworks so hard every singleday.”
Wyoming is in the Cin-cinnati Hills League driv-er’s seat this season, butthe Braves could be more
of player a year from now.“I thought we were the
only team that couldmatch-up with them ath-letically and I still thinkthat,” Burch said. “Wehave a lineup out there ev-ery once in a while that is afreshman, three sopho-mores and a junior. We getall those guys back.”
Next up for Indian Hillis a “Superstitious Special”on Friday, Feb. 13, at Read-ing.

KENWOOD — It takes afierce competitor to re-place a highly successfulcoach who has yearly tak-en wrestlers in multipleweight classes to the Ohiostate tournament.
Shortly after last year’sDivision I festivities at theSchottenstein Center, JeffGaier retired after 29years, three state runner-up titles, 11 district cham-pionships, 18 sectionalchampionships, 21GreaterCatholic League titles, 153state qualifiers and 155 in-dividual GCL champs.
Also gone to graduationwere Connor Borton, Stu-art Morton, Austin Bohe-nek, Quinton Rosser, Da-kota Sizemore, JerryThornberry and ChalmerFrueauf; all state partici-pants a year ago.
Enter James Yonusho-nis, a former Penn Statewrestler who spent fiveyears trying to make theUnited States team beforecoaching Bishop Ready inColumbus. His challengeis to take a young, junior-heavy squad and makethem podium-ready.
“It’s big shoes to fill,”Yonushonis said. “We’re alittle bit down, but it won’tbe long.”
Competing in the GCL-South, there are no patsieson the schedule. Everymatch is a dogfight, includ-ing the non-conferencetilts where it makes theseason for some schools todefeat Moeller.
While replenishing insome of the weights, thecupboard was not bare atthe lighter levels. Back at138 pounds is junior Jaco-by Ward who finishedfourth last season at 132pounds. He is the brotherof former Moeller statechampion, Joey Ward.
“He’s really a great kidthat has trained hard andworks hard in the room,”Yonushonis said. “He does
a great job with his gradesand is a quality kid.”
Another state partici-pant last season was Con-ner Ziegler, now a senior at120 pounds. The term,“crafty veteran” fits Zie-gler’s style.
“Conner’s a great lead-er and some of our juniorshave been stepping up aswell,” Yonushonis said.“The kid (Ziegler) workshis butt off. He’s been
working hard like thatsince he was young. That’sa product of doing theright thing over and over.”
Repetition is somethinga dedicated wrestler fromcentral Pennsylvania likeYonushonis understandswell. It’s something theytry to instill in the MoellerKid’s Club organizationthat tutors young wres-tlers.
Ward and Ziegler arethe most likely of theMoeller mat men to ad-vance through the variousstages of the “month ofchampions.”
A few of the bigger Cru-saders also are in goodstanding like sophomoreBrett Bryant at 160, heavy-weight junior Joe Hensleyand 220-pound junior“tank” Jack Meyer.
“I had a coach ask meafter one of his matches ifhe was a ‘He-man,’ ” Yo-nushonis said. “Theythought he was such abeast to wrestle. He’s asstrong as you get for a highschool kid and he’s prettygood at wrestling.”
Ahead for Moeller afterthe state team duals is theGCL meet Feb. 21. Fromthere, it’s week-to-weekuntil the State proceedingsMarch 12-14.

If you’re in the mar-ket for a used car, andprefer to buy from aprivate owner, you needto watch out for a newscam hitting the area.
Although everythinglooks great when you seethe car offered for sale -and the owner signs theback of the title over toyou - you never get own-ership of the vehicle.
That’s what happenedto Adam Bradford, ofLoveland after he foundan SUV advertised onCraigslist. He girlfriend,Carla Hamill, said, “Webought a couple of cars,sold a couple of cars onCraigslist so we hadcalled on a number ofthem.”
The 2002 SUV theyliked was being sold by awoman in Dayton, Ohio.They went to Dayton,Bradford test drove it,and agreed to pay $5,000for the vehicle. The sell-er went with them to abank where the seller’ssignature was notarizedon the title and thenBradford paid her themoney.
Unfortunately, theBureau of Motor Vehi-cles was closed at thatpoint so the seller saidshe would keep her li-cense plates on the car
so Brad-ford coulddrive it.Theyplanned tomeet atthe BMVthe nextday to getthe newtitle forBradfordand take
off the old plates andgive them to the seller.
The seller failed tomeet them to pick up thenew title so Bradfordwent to the BMV byhimself. Hamill says,“He went in, handedthem the title, had themoney out and every-thing. She said, ‘I’msorry, there’s a lien onthe car.” And he said,‘No.’”
In the Craigslist adthe seller specificallystates the SUV has aclean title. There’s nomention of an auto titleloan which had beentaken out just days be-fore the sale. Now thetitle loan company wantsthe car because thatwoman never paid offthe loan. It wants torepossess the vehicleand sell it to get back the$2,000 it loaned thatwoman. Police told
Bradford he also hassome rights because hegot a signed title.
Hamill says, “He hasan actual title, but theonly thing that’s good fornow is a bill of sale.Once they get a dupli-cate, that title is consid-ered inactive.”
Now Bradford sayshe’s unable to find thewoman who sold him theSUV. A spokeswomanfor the Ohio Bureau ofMotor Vehicles saysthey’re seeing a lot ofthis new scam since theauto title loan industryhas sprung up offeringcash loans for cars. NowBradford is joining withthe others in filing acomplaint with the BMV.
So, if you want to buya vehicle from a privateseller make sure you gowith them to a bureau ofmotor vehicles title of-fice and make sure thetitle can get transferredinto your name beforeyou pay any money tothe seller. If the BMV isclosed, don’t do the dealuntil you can be sure youcan get the title trans-ferred into your name.

Hamilton County Audi-tor Dusty Rhodes says thepassage of House Bill 85increases the amount ofhomestead exemption forveterans who are rated 100percent disabled from aservice-connected disabil-ity from $25,000 to $50,000.It exempts these veteransand their spouses from in-come/means testing.
“Although disabled vet-erans have always been ina position to apply for thestandard Homestead ex-emption for the elderlyand disabled, this bill pro-vides an enhanced benefitto those veterans whoqualify as 100 percent dis-abled from a service-con-nected disability. The billis designed to increasetheir deduction from$25,000 to $50,000. Thismeans a disabled veteranwho qualifies would onlyhave to pay taxes on
$100,000 of a home valuedat $150,000,” Rhodes said.
“To receive the in-creased exemption underthe bill, a homeowner mustbe a veteran of the UnitedStates armed forces, re-serves, or National Guardwho was honorably dis-charged with a service-connected total and per-manent disability certifiedby the United States De-partment of Veterans Af-fairs or other federal agen-cy. When applying for theexemption, the veteranmust provide appropriatewritten confirmation fromthe federal governmentthat the service-connecteddisability rating is 100 per-cent,” he said.
Applications may befiled from until June 1.
For information, con-tact the Auditor’s Home-stead Department at 513-946-4099.
