Many shape-note singers sing from a book called “The Sa- cred Harp.” “This annual (singing con- vention) rotates among three Ohio cities and attracts singers from throughout the Midwest and South,” said John Bealle of Clifton, one of the “core sing- ers” of Cincinnati Sacred Harp.

Harp Singing convention coming to the Little Red Schoolhouse By Jeanne Houck [email protected] The Little Red Schoolhouse will host two days of Sacred Harp singing early in March. Cold temperatures and prob- lems with sign design have de- layed a construction project that will help move traffic through Blue Ash and Montgo- mery. The Pfeiffer Road project will add an extra right lane to In- terstate 71 between the Pfeiffer Road exit and Interstate 275. With the extra lane, motorists will no longer have to merge into through traffic on I-71 if they are directly exiting onto I-275. The project began in Jan- uary 2013. The original completion date for the project was October, but problems with sign design and the cold weather pushed the date to April, said Sharon Smi- gielski, spokesperson for the Ohio Department of Transpor- tation, in an email. The project’s first sign issue was the dynamic message sign, on I-71 just north of the Pfeiffer Road exit, being installed incor- rectly. A new section of the foundation had to be made. That work was completed in Decem- ber. Smigielski said the design for the overhead sign founda- tion for I-71 had to be changed because of additional founda- tion length. The new foundation takes a long time to be made and the installation of it is weather dependent, she added. To make room for the extra lane the sound barrier wall has to be removed. “During these delays, con- struction on the sound barrier had to be shifted, slowing the contractor’s progress. This pushed the project into the win- ter months, further slowing progress due to the early cold temperatures,” Smigielski said. Smigielski said construction had to stop because of the cold temperatures, but is scheduled to resume April 1 and might be- gin earlier if the weather per- mits. Montgomery Public Works Director Brian Riblet said the project has not caused any traf- fic issues within the city and ODOT has done well keeping the city informed about changes with the project. The contract for the project sold for $3.139 million, but Smi- gielski said ODOT is expecting a change order regarding the new designs of the sign founda- tion.

“Although listeners are wel-come, Sacred Harp singerscome primarily to participate,”Bealle said.

“Come to a singing and you’llbe handed a book and directedto the traditional ‘hollowsquare,’where the fourparts sitfacing in.

“Seizedby thephysical vigorof the singing and by the emo-tionally confrontive poetry, Sa-cred Harp singers enjoy a deepmusical and spiritual experi-ence,” Bealle said.

Bealle said Sacred Harpsinging is religious folk musicthat traces its roots to the sing-ing schools of colonial America.

“With the aim of improvingmusic in the churches, singingmasters taught note reading us-ing books of religious, patrioticand popular poetry set to musicarranged for congregationalsinging,” Bealle said.

“Around 1800, a system ofshape notes was developed toaid in teaching - with each noteof the scale assigned a corre-sponding shape for the note

head.“Themusic followed settlers

southward, eventually losing itsappeal everywhere except thesoutheastern U.S.,” Bealle said.

INDIAN HILL —With the 2014Winter Olympics in Sochicranked up, a few quadrennialterms will be entering our vo-cabulary.

Throughout February, ourvideo screenswill be infiltratedby the likes of Scott Hamilton,Brian Boitano, Kristi Yamagu-chi, Mike Eruzione, Apolo Ohnoand the red-headed snowboard-er, ShaunWhite.

Youwill hearof the triple sal-chow, the flying camel, luge, ic-ing and curling. Oddly, you willbe drawn to watch these activ-ities asBobCostas spins resultsnext to a perpetual fire.

That’s what happened toShawnO’Connorfouryearsago.InspiredbyOlympic curling, heinvestigated an event at the In-dian Hill Winter Club. Fast for-ward to 2014, the CincinnatiCurling Club member couldeasily filibuster Congress onthe sport for a couple days.

“It’s aprettyeasysport togetinto and it becomes highly ad-dictive,” O’Connor said. “It’seasy for a beginner person tofeel progress almost immedi-ately.”

What looks like some elabo-rate kitchenware and a fewmops is actually far more intri-cate.

The stone is granite andweighs about 42 pounds. A usedone might run $500, with a newmodel around $800. Rolling itdown prepared ice takes morethan rudimentary bowlingskills.

“It really just takes a lot ofpractice,” thrower StephanieSimpson said. “A lot of it ismus-

cle memory. As you curl moreoften, you get better at balanc-ing and your aim.”

The aim is aided by a pair ofsweepers. Scrubbing the sur-face like caffeine-crazed custo-dians, theobject is tocreateavi-able path.

“It takes more muscle thanyou think,” veteran curler Dar-rell Brown said. “You need toput some weight on the broom

A publication of

Feb. 5 questionTheBengals have askedHamil-

ton County for control of thenaming rights to Paul Brown Sta-dium. Should the county turnover the naming rights? Why orwhy not?What nameswould yousuggest for the stadium?

“My simple answer is no, butI would urge both sides to nego-tiate. I can understand thatnaming rights are a valuable as-set and since the county ownsthose rights they shouldnot justgive them away.

On the other hand, I can ap-preciate the Bengals not want-ing to play in a stadium thatmight bear a name not consis-tent with their team or theNFL.

Personally I like the currentname, PaulBrownStadium, andwish that sign on the stadiumwas more prominent than thecurrent one.”

NEXT QUESTIONColorado andWashington havelegalized retail sale of marijua-na. Is this a good idea? ShouldOhio follow suit? Why or whynot?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via e-mail. Send youranswers [email protected] withChatroom in the subject line.

Have you ever lent a friendin distress money and foundout later that before repayingyou he went out and pur-chased something unneces-sary or extravagant?

Or worse still found outthat since loaning him themoney he had amassed a sig-nificant stockpile of cash ofhis own but still made no ef-fort to make things right.

I have and to be honest I’vefound myself resenting theother party and questioningtheir integrity.

As the reader may recallseveral months ago a teacherwrote an editorial in the Indi-an Hill Journal requestingthat voters of the districtbecome better informedabout regarding the schoolboard’s proposed contractwith the district’s teachers.

I did so and subsequentlysubmitted my own editorialsummarizing my findings.Since then I have taken anoth-er look and have realized thatthe scope of that teacher’srequest was misleadinglynarrow.

The proposed contract, inisolation, seems to be aboutthe concept of merit pay andthe administration’s desire toreasonably withhold pay in-creases from underperform-ing teachers.

This concept on its faceseems reasonable and theprotests made by the IndianHill Education Association(IHEA) that a teacher’s per-formance is too complex tomeasure and hence link to payseems hypocritical and self-serving.

The notion, that somedaythis power, if granted, may be

abused is alsotoo supposi-tional to betaken as alegitimateobstacle to theswift andsuccessfulresolution ofthe currentcontract asproposed.

However ifthe viewer

steps back and sees the issuesin their historical context avery different picture emerg-es.

It becomes apparent thatthere is unfinished businessbetween the parties and likethe relationship with my re-calcitrant friend the trueissue between the schoolboard and the IHEA is one ofresentment and mistrustwhich festers over an “unpaiddebt.”

Nearly three years ago, inthe wake of the Great Reces-sion and aMcCarthy era likecampaign against public sec-tor workers, the IHEAmadeconcessions which were ap-propriate given the extraordi-nary economic threats wefaced as a nation.

They sacrificed to makethe circumstances better forthe district as it faced a poten-tial crisis. The teachersagreed to a contract with nopay increase for two yearsand agreed to forgo the stepincrease reclassificationswhich they were due by vir-tue decades of common prac-tice.

Indian Hill teachers havenot received a raise since2010. Their gross wages have

remained stagnant and theirnet pay has actually deceasedas they have been required topay a greater amount towardtheir health care and pensionand given that there has beenno compensatory correctionto offset their step systemconcession they will foreverearn less than if they hadrefused to compromise.

When you extend yourselfin a crisis to another in needyou can rightfully expect thatparty to make you wholewhen the crisis is past.

The crisis we faced in 2009is past and yet the teachershave not been made whole.That is the issue. That is thebasis of the underlying mis-trust.

I personally believe teach-er performance can be mea-sured and there can be a mer-it base pay methodology fash-ioned.

This may require a collab-orative study over the nextcontract cycle.

In turn I feel given thesolvency of the district (some$30-plus million in reserve)the teachers should be paidfor the wages they have for-gone over the past severalyears and they should be re-stored to the appropriatelevels within the step systemwhich they would have real-ized had the crisis not havepresented and had they notcompromised in the spirit ofpulling together.

It is time for some confi-dence building measures andI believe it is the board’s turnto go first.

Purveyors of tea partyphilosophy propose, “Wouldthe Founding Fathers havewanted this”? Is this questionrelevant? Are the ‘FoundingFathers’ important to today’spolitics? Who were the‘FoundingMothers’?

Life in the 18th centurywas unacceptably differentfrom life today. Return withus now to those thrilling daysof yesteryear, when NativeAmericans were not consid-ered human, driven fromtheir lands; and, AfricanAmericans were mostlyslaves, bought and sold likeused cars at slave auctions.Many ‘Free Blacks’ (withpapers) were taken hostageand sold into slavery.

Women could not ownproperty; they were consid-ered to be ‘property’. The onlypeople who could vote, or holdoffice, were white, male, ofEuropean descent, and theyhad to own land.

Women would not win theright to vote for almost 150more years, 1920. Womenwould not have significantproperty rights until 1900.Women and children wereroutinely ‘whipped’, often byprofessional ‘whippers’, whenthey disobeyed their hus-

bands/fathers.I believe thistradition sur-vives today;although,there are nolonger ‘profes-sionals’ in thewhippingbusiness.

The found-ing fathers

were control freaks, fright-ened of Democracy.

The founding fathers weresomewhat afraid of their wim-min, as most of them, liketheir European counterparts,married well above their fi-nancial stations, in order toafford the luxury of philo-sophical musings over beerwith their buds, running forpolitical office, and serving asofficers in the wars with Eng-land.

Their wimmin did all thework! They tended the farmsand families, buried the dead,and fought off small invasionsby thieves, and the English.They made things work withtheir force and fortunes,while the men played politicsand soldiers, gone months at atime.

Republican senators andrepresentatives are increas-

ingly finding that they havelittle latitude when it comes to‘Independent Thought’, asthey represent us. The teaparty has tilted toward canni-balism, suggesting they eattheir own, should a governoror representative have anindependent thought that maystray from the very narrowparty line of their sponsors(political contributors).

There was recent serioustalk about running an oppos-ing tea party candidate in theprimary election for gover-nor. They must have countedthe votes, as this thought wasjust as publicly withdrawn.

More recently, an article inthis paper suggested thatanother representative need-ed to be removed do to one ortwo independent thoughts hemay have had.

Our major problem con-tinues without discussion. It isthe debt; over $222 trillion,and how to pay it down.

So…tea party…who gives arats patoot about the ‘Found-ing Fathers”? What is yourplan to resolve the $222 tril-lion debt?

The state Legislature haslimitedeligibility throughan in-come qualifier for the Real Es-tate TaxHomestead Exemptionfor most new applicants afterJan. 1, 2014.

This clamp-down is yet an-other in a series ofmovesmadeby the state to offload expendi-tures onto local governmentsand citizens.

Other changes made in thepast two years include morethan a 50 percent cut of statefunding to counties, municipal-ities, and townships and elimi-nation of12½ percent rollbacksonneworreplacement leviesonowner-occupied residentialproperty taxes.

Taken together, these cutswill literally save the state (andrevert these costs back to citi-zens and communities) wellover a billion dollars annuallywiththatamountgrowingeveryyear due to new levies comingon, the death of current Home-stead recipients, and the poten-tial growth in state tax reve-nues.

Under the current version ofthe law, taxpayers already re-ceiving the Homestead exemp-tion (normally worth around$300 to $400 per year for ahomeowner) will be “grandfa-thered” and will be eligible toreceive the break going for-ward… unless there is a changein their status such as not own-ing and living in an Ohio resi-dence or no longer beingclassed as totally disabled.

Special attention should betaken by those who turned 65before Jan.1, 2014, and have notyet filed the first time forHomestead exemption.

Youhaveaone-timeopportu-nity to apply and be approvedwithout income qualification aslong as you own and live in thesame home that you did on Jan.1, 2013.

Such “late application” mustbe received at the auditor’s of-fice on or before June 2, 2014.

New appli-cants becom-ing eligible byage or disabil-ity after Jan. 1,2014, will nowneed tomeet anincome test tobe approvedfor the Home-stead exemp-tion.

A taxpayer and spouse withan individual or joint householdOhio adjusted gross income(OAGI) ofmore than $30,500 ontheir 2013 state income tax re-turn will not be eligible for theexemption in the current year.

If, in the future, the taxpayer(s) report an income below theeligibility threshold, the ex-emption may be approved forthat year.

New Homestead applicantswho are not required to file anOhio income tax return mustsubmit appropriate documenta-tion to the county auditor toprove income eligibility.

It should be noted that Ohioadjusted gross income is notnecessarily the same as the to-tal income received in a house-hold.

Receipt of Social Securitybenefits would be a major ex-ample of an income source notconsidered for OAGI and thusnot affecting eligibility for theHomestead exemption.

The normal filing period fortheHomesteadexemption isbe-tween the firstMonday in Janu-ary and the first Monday ofJune each year.

Annually, in March, we mailan inquiry concerning continu-ing eligibility to taxpayers whoreceived the Homestead ex-emption in the previous year.

If there isnochange in theel-igibility status no action is nec-essary by the taxpayer.

BINGO IS BACK IN LOVELAND!Monday, February 3Monday, February 17Monday, March 3

American Legion Post 256897 Oakland RoadLoveland, OH 45140

Today isabreadbakingday. The idea actuallystarted yesterday whenmyfriendJoanieManzo, aLoveland reader, broughtme a loaf of homemade

cinnamonbread. Di-vine! So itgot me inthe breadbakingmood. Ididn’t havetime forcinnamonbread butknew I’dhave time

to make this easy recipefor Italian bread. I keptone loaf for us and senttheother toTonyandDeb-bie, our neighbors. Withthis wicked icy weather, awarm loaf of bread with abowl of steaming stew is acomforting supper.

Italian bread forbeginners andeveryone else

I like this recipe for itssimplicity. The flavor andtexture is like the kindyou get at a bakery. Thecrust isabitcrispandpalegold. I’m giving detailedinstructions here. Checkout my blog for tips onkneading and step-by-step photos. If you want,sprinkle poppy seeds onthe bread after shaping.

1package (1⁄4 oz.) active dryyeast

2 cups warmwater (110degrees to 115 degrees)

Pinch of sugar to feed yeast1 teaspoon sugar2 teaspoons salt51⁄2 cups all-purpose flour

Stir yeast in warm wa-ter, adding a pinch of sug-ar to “feed” the yeast. It’sreadywhen it looks foamyon top, a few minutes.Pour intomixingbowl andadd sugar, salt and 3 cupsflour. Beat on mediumspeed for 3 minutes. Pourin remaining flour andmix on low to form softdough. On very lightlyfloured surface, kneaduntil smooth and elastic,about 8 minutes or so. Itmay be sticky at first, butwill get smooth, like ababy’s bottom. Place in

greased bowl, turningonce to grease top. Coverand let rise in warm placeuntildoubled,about1houror so.

Punch dough down. Di-vide in half. Shape eachinto a loaf. There are twoways to do this: Simplymake loaf shapewithyourhands about 12 incheslong, or roll dough into anapproximate 12-inch by 7-inch rectangle. Roll uptightly from long side,pinch seams to seal andplace seam side down onsprayed or parchment-lined pan. Cover and letrise until doubled, 30-45minutes. With sharpknife, make four shallowslashes across top of loaf.Bake at preheated 400 de-grees for 20-25 minutes,or until golden.

Tips» Make this by hand?

Of course, and you get aworkout, too!

» Measure accurately.Flour settles as it sits.Whisk a bit or stir beforemeasuring. Measure byspooning lightly into cupand leveling off with

knife.» Howwarm is 110-115

degrees?Best tousean in-stant read thermometer,which is inexpensive andaccurate. Water is justright when you put someon your wrist and it’swarm enough for a babyto drink from a bottle.

» How to tell whendough is doubled. Risingtime is a guide only. Usefingers to make indenta-tion about 1⁄2 inch intodough. If the indentationremains, the dough hasdoubled. For the secondrise after shaping,make asmall indentation in thedough near its side. If thedent remains, thedough isready to bake.

Good-for-you eggscramble

Adapted from an EllieKrieger recipe. Februaryis heartmonth, so here’s arecipe that fills thebill forhealth but doesn’t sacri-fice flavor.

I like this stuffed into awhole wheat pita spreadwith mashed avocado andsprinkled with a little Fe-ta.

Olive oil1⁄2 cup red onion, diced2 Roma tomatoes, diced4 whole eggs4 egg whites

Palmful fresh dill, chopped,or 1 teaspoon dried leaves

Salt and pepper

Film nonstick pan witholive oil, about a table-spoon.Addonionandcooka couple of minutes untilsoft, then add tomatoesand cook another minute.Put in bowl and set aside.Beat eggs together. Pourinto skillet and cook untilalmost set, stirring fre-quently. Drain excess liq-uid from tomato mixtureand stir into eggs. Stir indill, season to taste.

Tip from Rita’skitchen

Freezing avocados:Yes, you can. Jungle Jim’s

had them on sale so Ibought a lot, mashed theflesh, squirtedwith lemonjuice to keep the color andfroze it.
