INDEPENDENCE — TwoKy. 536 improvement alterna-tives will be introduced duringan open house on Monday, Oct. 5.

This meeting is the last in aseries of three open houses con-ducted this year as part of theOhio-Kentucky-Indiana Region-al Council of Government’s(OKI) Ky. 536 Scoping Study.

The open house will be 4-7p.m. at the Independence Senior

and Community Center, 2001Jackwoods Parkway, Independ-ence.

Ky. 536 Scoping Study pro-ject manager Robyn Bancroftsaid the corridor is regionallyrecognized as a critical roadwayto improve access, mobility andeconomic vitality throughoutNorthern Kentucky.

This segment of the roadway,between Ky. 17 and the Kentonand Campbell county line, is theonly remaining section of theentire corridor that does nothave a preferred alternative orimprovement plan in place,Bancroft said. This segmentwas left until last because of itsfragmented connections, dras-tic elevation changes, poor sight

lines, broad range of environ-mental factors, and, most impor-tantly, extremely high crashrates.

Bancroft said the open houseis to review and discuss two re-fined roadway improvement al-ternatives being considered forKy. 536.

OKI’s CEO Mark Policinskisaid the level of public involve-ment in the study has been “tre-mendous ... possibly more sothan we’ve ever had on a projectlike this.”

“The study team listened towhat the community has saidthey want and refined the alter-natives accordingly,” he said.

FLORENCE — Just like mil-itary teams learn to work to-gether, organizers of the Dis-abled American Veterans 5Kon Nov. 7 at Sawyer Point andthe Honor Run Half Marathonon Nov. 14 in Florence havejoined forces to create an en-tire week to honor veterans.

Completing both eventswill earn the first 300 partici-pants a special set of dog tagsfor the 26 Klick Challenge,presented by Tri-State Run-ning Co. in Edgewood.

“In the military, a klick is akilometer,” said Scott Spicher,who organizes the Honor RunHalf Marathon. “Since theDAV 5K is 5,000 meters andour Honor Run is 21,000 me-ters, together they’re 26klicks.”

The Honor Run raisesfunds for Honor Flight Tri-State, which sends veterans ofWorld War II, Korea and Viet-nam to Washington, D.C., tovisit their memorials. North-ern Kentucky’s only half mar-athon starts and ends underthe Florence Y’all water toweroutside the Florence Mall, andcloses several streets on itsroute through Florence to theCincinnati/Northern Ken-tucky International Airport.

The DAV 5K Run to HonorVeterans started in 2013 inCincinnati. This year similarevents will take place in SanDiego and Atlanta.

“The inaugural 26 Klickchallenge is a great way forpatriotic runners to showtheir support for veterans intheir community by accepting

a challenge to run both theDAV 5K Run to Honor Veter-ans and the Honor Run HalfMarathon,” said Leslie Wen-ert, DAV 5K Cincinnati racemanager. “Disabled Ameri-can Veterans, founded in Cin-cinnati in 1920, is dedicated tofulfilling our promises to themen and women who served,and we are proud to partnerwith the Honor Run to cele-brate Veterans Day weekendin Cincinnati and honor ournation’s heroes.”

PARK HILLS — An elf look-ing slapped silly, a googly-eyedsnowman and a laughing Christ-mas tree are three of nine de-signs featured on the packagingof Topps’ Baby Bottle Popscandy.

These designs are creationsof Covington Catholic HighSchool students.

CovCath graphic designteacher Craig Cleveland estab-lished a relationship with base-ball card maker Topps and TungToos, a company that makescandy-flavored temporary tat-toos for the tongue, to providean opportunity for students inhis graphic design class to sub-mit designs for the Baby BottlePops project.

A total of 150 designs weresubmitted and judged by exec-utives from both companies.Nine students’ work was select-ed by Topps to be published andincluded in limited-editionpackages of the candy.

Students whose designswere selected include: Tanner

Chadwick, Kyle Cosby, ClayCrowe, Jared Clark, ParkerDuell, Daniel Mounir, Ben Poh-labeln, Luke Shields, AdamStegman and CJ Voorhees.

The candy will be released

this holiday season in Target,Walmart and Rite-Aid storesaround the world.

Cleveland said it has been agreat opportunity for the stu-dents.

“They got a real-world expe-rience,” he said. “They also nowhave their work in print and itwill be seen all over the world.That’s something nice to add totheir resume and it’s a good con-

versation starter when you’retalking to a potential employer.”

Daniel Mounir, 16, of Inde-pendence, said he appreciatesthe real-world experience.

“I feel like this is a great ac-complishment,” he said. “I’veenjoyed creating somethingthat others will see and enjoy.It’s been a real great opportuni-ty.”

Mounir said when he wasthinking of a design he wantedsomething fun and “completelysilly.” He designed a Christmaself with giant eyes with a hugetongue hanging from hismouth..

“I like doing artistic things,”said Mounir, who is consideringa career in design. “I like creat-ing things.”

Luke Shields, 18, of ParkHills, said he enjoyed the oppor-tunity to work with real compa-nies.

“It was interesting,” he said.“I learned a lot. It’s also neatthat everyone in the world willsee what we made.”

TAYLOR MILL — Ma-jestic tree houses stretchfor the sky as noble woodspirits rest beside them insilence. A hummingbirdcollects nectar from aflower as a regal Santastands ready to deliverwishes.

Welcome to a meetingof the River Valley WoodCarvers where imagina-tion, chainsaws, detailingknives and a little elbowgrease transform formertrees into works of art.

The group meets 6-9p.m. the first and thirdMondays of each month atTaylor Mill United Meth-odist Church, 5160 TaylorMill Road, Taylor Mill.

Troy Baker, 38, of He-bron, has been a part of theclub for a few years. Bak-

er has been fiddling withwood since he was a youngboy.

“My grandpa used to siton his porch and whittle,”he said. “He’d give us kidsa pocketknife and piece ofwood. He’d make animalsand we’d just be makingmarks on sticks. But it wasfun. Now, I love creatingstuff from nothing. I get abig kick out of seeing peo-ple’s faces light up whenthey see what I’ve made,especially the kids.”

Instead of pocket-knives, Baker’s tool ofchoice is a chainsaw.

His life-sized carvingsof Batman and Chewbac-ca, the big, hairy creaturefrom Star Wars fame,have won him accolades.His Batman won firstplace at the KentuckyState Fair this year. Chew-bacca won second place inlast year’s fair.

These and works of oth-er carvers will be on dis-play at the club’s free

carving show to be held 10a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday,Oct. 3, at the Scheben Li-brary, 88999 U.S. 42,Union. The carvers willgive demonstrations andhave their work on displayand for sale. Special fea-tures will include carverKathy Overcash, a whim-sical cottonwood barkcarver and two chainsawcarvers, including Baker.

In accordance withKentucky Transporta-tion Cabinet policy forrural roadways, theshoulders can be utilizedby bicyclists and pedes-trians. With this option,the on-alignment alter-native would cost an esti-mated $84.5 million. Withthis option, 66 structurescould be affected and 177parcels of land, as well asthis includes 95 acres offarmland.

This al-ternative is planned as athree-lane road, a singlelane traveling in eitherdirection and a lane inthe middle to assist withturns, between Ky. 17 andStaffordsburg Road.

Both weredesigned to respect thecommunity’s desire toimprove travel safety,minimize impacts tohomes and property andmaintain the characterof the existing area.”

Roadway improve-ment alternatives for theKY 536 Scoping Studywere developed in closecoordination with localresidents, property own-ers, businesses and localand regional communityleaders, according toBancroft.

The two options are:» On-Alignment Al-

ternative: This ap-proach proposes to mod-ify and improve the ex-isting roadway and usethe existing corridor asmuch as possible al-though small sectionswould be briefly rerout-ed. This option would fol-low Ky. 536 east from Ky.17 and shifts north onto anew segment as it ap-proaches Ky. 16 (redi-recting traffic north ofWhite’s Tower Elemen-tary School) to realignwith Ky. 536 near Maver-ick Road. It would con-tinue until a half milewest of Klein Road, thenturns north onto a newalignment that connectsdirectly with the VisaliaBridge. This alternativeis planned as a three-laneroad a single lane travel-ing in either directionand a lane in the middleto assist with turns.

To accommodate bi-cycle and pedestriantravel, this alternativeprovides two options,Bancroft said.

To accommodate bik-ers, walkers and run-ners, Bancroft said thisalternative also includeseight-foot multiuse pathson both sides of Ky. 536from Ky. 17 to Ky. 16. Eastof Ky. 16, a 10-foot multi-use path is included aspart of this alternative.

This alternativewould cost an estimated$86.5 million. With thisoption, 37 structurescould be affected and 137parcels of land, as well as77 acres of farmland.

Bancroft said thecommunity will have theopportunity to reviewthe alternatives and dis-cuss them with studyteam members at theOct. 5 open house. Thosewanting a preview orwho are not able to at-tend, can view maps ofthe alternatives, nowavailable on the study’swebsite atwww.OKI.org/536. Ban-croft said the study teamrequests that communitymembers complete aComment Form (alsoavailable on the website)to share input.

“It’s important thateveryone provide theirinput on this project,”she said. “We want tohear from those who liveon Ky. 536, as well asthose who travel the cor-ridor and even those whoavoid traveling the corri-dor because of safety andefficiency issues.”

OCTOBER 1, 2015 • SOUTH KENTON RECORDER • 3ANEWS

WALTON — Threeyears ago, Rich andWrenda Magoteaux fol-lowed their dream toopen an upscale gift shopfeaturing seasonal deco-rations, and now thatdream is ending.

In September, theystarted end-of-businesssale and another round ofmarkdowns will start inOctober. The store will beopen as long as inventoryremains. Store fixturesand furniture are also forsale.

The store was almostan extension of their ex-travagant home Christ-mas displays, but all theholidays and sports sea-sons were represented,along with high-qualitygift items.

Photos of items or-dered to decorate for thisChristmas hang on thewalls of the shop’s workroom, but those orderswere canceled.

“We just never got thesales we needed,” saidRich Magoteaux. “Wesaw some growth but notwhat we needed to makeit worthwhile. We havesome real loyal custom-ers, but many were herejust once a year, and wecan’t survive with once-a-year customers.”

A summer surveyshowed customers didn’tmind driving almost anhour for an occasionalvisit, but it was too far forregular shopping.

Customers came fromIndianapolis, Louisville,Dayton, Columbus, allover Cincinnati, especial-ly the West Side, Rich Ma-

goteaux said, “but theydon’t come back downhere month after month.”

“Frankly, it’s hard tocompete in today’s mar-ketplace,” he said.

“A large departmentstore, marks up items tofive times the cost, thendiscounts,” said WrendaMagoteaux. “Our every-day prices are less thantheir 50 percent off, butpeople would rather buyfrom the departmentstore, because they thinkthey’re saving so much.It’s hard to compete.”

Many customers whojoined the store’s emaillist have told the couple tokeep their information, incase they reopen in thefuture in another loca-tion.

“Once we made thevery hard decision toclose, we prayed to selleverything so we don’thave to move it,” saidWrenda Magoteaux.

The Magoteaux familyis expecting a quietChristmas this year.

“This will be an odd

year for us, without deco-rating, with the storeclosing,” said Rich Mago-teaux.

“This year we will justenjoy our holidays,” saidWrenda Magoteaux. “It’sbeen fun. We’ve loved ithere.”

Overall, they’re grate-ful and appreciative forthe customers they had,especially those who toldthem how much theyloved the store.

“One customer said hewould come in when heneeded a pick-me-up inhis day. He felt happy andcomfortable in here,”said Wrenda Magoteaux.“We heard that over andover. That was ourdream. That was exactlywhat we wanted, but itjust wasn’t enough.”

While Rich will be re-turning to the workforce,Wrenda is not yet surewhat she will do next.

“Whatever God saysfor me to do, that’s whatI’ll do,” she said.

The property is not yetlisted, but it will be avail-

able for sale. “It’s probably the best

retail spot available in thecity,” said Rich Mago-teaux.

“The Boone CountyPlanning Commissionhas done a great job ofreinventing Main StreetWalton as a place for peo-ple to visit. That takestime. It doesn’t happenovernight,” he said. “It’sgoing in the right direc-tion. We were just tooearly in the process. Wewere ahead of our time.”

Unlike some otherdowntown areas, he said,Walton has plenty ofparking.

“We’re disappointed,but we tried it, and welearned a lot,” he said.“We’re excited for thenext adventure. We liveand learn. If we did itagain, we’d do it differ-ently, smaller and closerto Cincinnati. Maybe adifferent name, maybenot.”

Rich and Wrenda Magoteaux are closing their gift shop, Sleigh Bells, on Main Street inWalton.

ing. Club membership,which includes ages 16 to94, is open to anyone inter-ested in woodcarving orwood burning. Founded in1999, the club covers theareas of southern Ohio andNorthern Kentucky. Thegroup hosts seminars andoffers a mentoring pro-gram that pairs novicecarvers with those whohave advanced experi-ence.

“It’s a relaxing time,”River Valley presidentRex Sansfacon, Florence,said. “It’s nice to be withother folks who share thesame interest. It’s a verygood club. It’s a learningclub and we just enjoy our-selves.”

John Dotson, who trav-eled from Withamsville,Ohio, to sit with fellowcarvers this Mondaynight, patiently, but ag-gressively carves into apiece of wood whittling itinto an Indian bust.

“Carving becomes apassion,” Dotson said. “It’slike a drug. When you arecreating, you lose track oftime and everythingaround you.”

David Chadwick, 79, ofKenton County, said he tooenjoys woodcarving be-cause he gets to make “myown creations.”

On a cool Septembernight Chadwick is gettingin the spirit of Christmas,working on an ornament.This night he delicatelycarvesa snowman and willend up making a dozenmore holiday ornamentsfor Cincinnati Children’sHospital Medical Center.The club donates orna-ments to the hospital forkids to take home when

they are released.“My grandpa whittled

and I remember him mak-ing things and giving themto neighbor kids,” he said.“They’d be so excited.That’s how I got into carv-ing. I remembered him do-ing that and decided to jointhe club a few years ago. Iseem to have a little talentfor it. It all starts from ablank piece of wood andyou cut away and you canmake something of it. It’sso relaxing and satisfy-ing.”

Debbie Ward, 57, ofFlorence, said she findscarving to be therapeutic.

“You just concentrateon what you’re doing andthe stress leaves you,” shesaid. “Making somethingwith your hands is also sosatisfying. I like coming tothe club and I’m lookingforward to bettering myskills. Everybody here isso friendly and helpful.”

Suzanne Millay, 55, ofCrestview Hills, stumbledupon the carving club afew years ago when sheread an article about it in alocal newspaper.

“When I came I wasjust hooked,” she said.

Millay started carvingabout 18 years ago. Shehad a Christmas ornamentthat she dearly loved, aSanta, but his arm had bro-ken off.

“Not wanting to throwit away, I went to the back-yard and found a twig anddid my best to replicatethe other arm,” she said.“It turned out good and Ikept with carving. It was agreat way to express my-self.”

Now Millay carves herown creations she calls“wood spirits,” noble facescarved into tree bark.

Covington Latin School im-plements the final phase of its1:1 Chromebook Program.

Covington Latin School hasbeen working hard on its tech-nology plan and is excited aboutthe new educational opportuni-ties the students will have withimplementation of its new Chro-mebook program.

Adding technology to the Co-vington Latin curriculum hascome in three phases.

» Phase I included raisingthe money needed for equip-ping teachers with new laptopcomputers and docking stationsin all of the classrooms.

» Phase II involved upgrad-ing the technology infrastruc-ture of Covington Latin and de-ploying use of a Chromebook

cart. » This year the third and fi-

nal phase has been launched. Allstudents in grades 9-12 havetheir own Chromebook for indi-vidual and academic use, atschool and at home.

The teachers are already us-ing the Chromebook in a varietyof ways.

Senior Honors Englishteacher Sheila Gray has beenvery enthusiastic about the newtechnology in her classroom.She had her students create ablog on a variety of topics, in-cluding one on their experienc-es as they complete the collegeapplication and acceptanceprocess.

“One of my main goals forthis project is to provide the stu-

dents with an opportunity towrite in a format and about sub-jects that better match the stu-dents’ real life experiences,making writing a more relevantactivity,” Gray said. “In pursuitof these goals, I believe the stu-dents’ overall writing skills willnaturally improve.”

“We chose Chromebooks be-cause they are fast and lightmaking them easy to carry; theyare relatively inexpensive; theyhave 8-plus hours of battery lifeand they connect with Google’ssuite of applications which havebeen used by every student andstaff member of Covington Lat-in for several years.

“This is an exciting step for-ward,” Headmaster Mo Wolter-ing said.

Covington Latin takes technological step forward

As Donna Mader embroiders“Read to Me” onto a bib she hasmade, she hopes it will be an in-spiration to follow those words.

“I hope that it is a reminderand that it inspires young par-ents to read to their children,”Mader, of Alexandria, said.“Reading to a child makes a dif-ference in their lives. It givesthem an advantage when theystart school and it’s a wonderfulway for parent and child tobond.”

Mader is a member of DeltaKappa Gamma Zeta, the North-ern Kentucky chapter of an in-ternational women educators so-ciety. About 14 years ago thegroup started the Books andBibs program in which mem-bers of the society visit highschools throughout the region tospeak with teen parents on theimportance of reading to theirchildren. The members also do-

nate books for infants and youngchildren and handmade bibs tothe teen parents.

“Reading is a fundamentalskill for children and adultsmust begin reading to them at avery young age to develop theirlanguage skills,” said Zeta mem-ber Mary Rose Hoffman of Wal-ton. “Many young parents do notunderstand the value and impor-tance of reading out loud at sucha young age.”

In the past year the groupreached about 195 young par-ents.

Sherri Chan, Dayton HighSchool Family Resource coordi-nator, said she appreciates theprogram and that it has had agreat impact on the teen par-ents.

“This program really meansa lot,” she said. “The kids appre-ciate that there are people outthere who care and want to sup-port them,” she said. “A lot ofteen parents are not aware ofhow much their children can

gain w hen they read to them.This program empowers ourteen parents to instill a love forlearning.”

Joyce Hamberg, a professorat Thomas More College and for-mer assistant superintendent atKenton County Schools, hasbeen involved with the programsince it started.

“I’m really all about promot-ing literacy how ever I can,” shesaid. “The parent is the first andmost important teacher a childhas.”

Hoffman said the Zeta Chap-ter is proud of the Books andBibs Program.

“Over the last 14 years, thelives of many Northern Ken-tucky teen or young parents andtheir children have beentouched in a positive waythrough the hard work andteaching talents of our Zeta sis-ters,” she said.

Founded in 2004, Village LifeOutreach Project Inc. is an offi-cial nonprofit organizationbased out of Cincinnati whosemission is to unite communitiesto promote life, health and edu-cation.

Most of Village Life’s workfocuses on three remote and im-poverished villages in the Ro-rya district of Tanzania, EastAfrica.

One of the ways Village Life“unites communities” isthrough work in schools both inTanzania and in the Cincinnatiand Northern Kentucky area.Besides taking University ofCincinnati students and faculty

to Tanzania to work on variousprojects and learn more aboutglobal humanitarianism, Vil-lage Life has partnered withmore than 20 Cincinnati andNorthern Kentucky gradeschools and high schools to ex-pand horizons and engage youthin service-learning activities.

In July, six second-year med-ical students from UC traveledto Tanzania for a month to gethands-on medical experience.

The Simon Kenton HighSchool Men’s Soccer team do-nated soccer jerseys that theUC students took with them todistribute in local schools.

The jerseys were passed out

to students at the Katuru Sec-ondary School in Shirati Village,Tanzania. The students andteachers were very excited toreceive their new jerseys. Katu-ru Secondary School has a largesoccer field next to the schoolthat the kids regularly practiceon, but they rarely have moneyfor team jerseys.

The students were all quickto put on their new jerseys toshow them off.

Village Life thanks SimonKenton High School for the jer-sey donation and looks forwardto continuing its work of intro-ducing local students to their“neighbors” across the globe.

OCTOBER 1, 2015 • SOUTH KENTON RECORDER • 7ANEWS

Being a presenter at MotherEarth News Fair is always funfor me. This year my presenta-tion was titled “A Garden ofSimples.”

Simples are herbs that areused for one, simple medicinal

quality, such asginger for gingertea to alleviatetummy upset, orlavender bathsalts for calmingand soothing andbasil face splashto cleanse andremove environ-mental toxins.

Let me knowif you want those

recipes. Check out myAbouteating.com site for pho-tos.

I noticed several trendstaking place at the far. Two ofthe biggest are growing garlicand making fermented prod-ucts. Heck, I chuckle when Ithink of those two. Some of ushave been doing that for years,like growing hard neck garlic(that’s the garlic that producesthose beautiful scapes), andmaking fermented foods likethat German standby: sauer-kraut, and a more trendy fer-mented product like kimchi.

Another trend is sproutingyour own salad toppings. Again,not new by any means. I’vebeen sprouting lentils, radishand bean seeds for a long time.They’re really easy and a goodone for the kids to help with.

Why sprouts are goodfor you

Lentils contain a bunch ofvitamins and minerals, includ-ing iron and magnesium (forpreventing those dreadedcramps in legs and feet).

Substitute for cornstarch(for Irene Robinson)

Arrowroot is my first

choice. It can be substitutedequally, 1-1.

Tapioca flour/starch. Use 2tablespoons for every 1 table-spoon.

Potato starch. Another 1-1sub, but tends to lump a bitwhen stirred in.

All purpose flour/riceflour. Use 3 tablespoons forevery 1 tablespoon.

Readers want to know -Black garlic: What is it?

A fermented product, be-lieve it or not, and it takesover a month in a special fer-menter. During that time, thegarlic turns black and healthqualities increase. Used inChinese and Thai food.

Lentil sprouts are reallyeasy to grow and a good one

for the kids to help with.

Rinse lentils and drain. Pour into jar and cover with 2 cups coldwater. Cover with cheesecloth or coffee filter and secure with rubberband. Let sit overnight. Drain off water, rinse and drain again. Dothis once a day. Cover. I like to lay mine on its side to give sproutsroom. After 3-4 days, they will be ready. Store in refrigerator, cov-ered. Use in salads, stir-fries and spreads or just eat as is.

Overcast and 68 degreesmight not be the sort ofweather most folks dreamabout, but it doesn’t get muchbetter for my favorite out-door fall activities.

All winter I hear myfriends complaining that theyare stuck inside because it istoo cold. When summer rollsaround those same friendscomplain that it is too hot tobe outside. In the spring theyare too busy. I’m sure there isan excuse for fall, but I’m notbuying it. Fall in Northern

Kentucky isperfect foroutdoor activ-ities, with itscrisp air, gor-geous canopyof fall foliageand thecrunch ofleaves un-derfoot.

An abun-dance of re-search has

shown that exercising out-doors greatly improves men-tal as well as physical health.Yet, Kentucky ranks 47th outof 50 states in overall health.That’s why Skyward, theengine and engineer behindNorthern Kentucky’s five-year community developmentplan, has identified wellnessas a key strategy for drivingeconomic growth and com-munity improvement.

This fall, Skyward will beworking with communityleaders to develop a programcalled LiveWell NKY. Live-Well is designed to engageschools, churches, local gov-ernments and work sites tohelp improve the climate thatallows for healthy choices tobe easy choices. LiveWell willsupport efforts to create aculture of good health wherewe live, work and play. It willfacilitate changes in exerciseand physical activity, healthyeating, and use/exposure totobacco. LiveWell representscore public health work, and

the Northern KentuckyHealth Department is excitedto be one of the partnerslaunching such a campaign inour region.

Want to start to LiveWellthis fall? Consider some ofthese activities: explore thegardens at Central Park, takea bike ride along the LickingRiver Greenway Trail, join anearly morning outdoor bootcamp exercise class, or plan afamily day at one of the fallfestivals in the area.

My family will be visitinglocal farmers’ markets forfresh local vegetables to usein home-cooked dinners. Wewon’t look at raking leaves asa dreaded chore, but ratheran opportunity for active fun,allowing the adults to burncalories making the piles andthe kids to be active runningand jumping in those piles –and perhaps a few more calo-ries burned as the adultsre-rake after the fun hasended. It doesn’t have to feellike exercise to be a greatworkout.

So, don’t let these beautiful68 degree fall days pass bywithout utilizing them toenergize your commitment toyour health. Set the excusesaside. This is a great time ofyear to get out, get movingand get fit.

October is Breast CancerAwareness Month. Which isgreat – don’t get me wrong.

But the reality is, you have tohave awareness year round.Breast cancer does not just hit inOctober. You should be proac-tive on a daily basis.

I know this firsthand. I am abreast cancer survivor. I havehad two mastectomies, eightrounds of chemotherapy and

lost my hair.I had a clean

mammogramin December2000. Fivemonths later,while moving

into a new house, I brushed upagainst a box and noticed my leftbreast was sore and tender.When it was time appropriate, Idid a self-exam and felt a lumpthat was unusual. My body wastelling me something was notright.

I saw my doctor. I wentthrough a diagnostic procedure.Three days later, on Aug. 6, 2001,Ihad surgery and was diagnosedwith breast cancer.

Now I talk publicly as often asI can to help educate our com-munity. I speak to schools,church groups and businesses. Iam grateful to work as a wom-en’s product consultant at St.Elizabeth Edgewood where Ihelp patients in a variety ofways. I counsel patients andfamilies as much as I can, shar-ing my experiences and provid-ing a shoulder to lean on if neces-sary. I want so much to help pro-vide comfort just as people didfor me.

I regularly hand out my cell-phone number so people can callme 24/7. I meet with patients andfamily members whenever andwherever they would like. I oncewent to a home that had multiplecats. I am allergic. And so, in themiddle of winter, we sat togeth-er in a car with the motor run-ning and the heat on so I could

listen to a husband and wifeshare their anxieties.

St. Elizabeth will have its mo-bile mammography van out andabout at least 12 times thismonth. But listen, even if youdon’t have an appointment orseek out the mobile mammo vanthis month, make an appoint-ment for anytime in the next fewmonths. Make that promise toyourself and keep it.

In the meantime, here arethree tips from someone whohas been through it:

1. Get acclimated with yourbody. Conduct regular self-ex-ams to set a baseline. You have toknow your body to know when itchanges. If I had not done that, Idon’t know if I would be here to-day.

2. Know your risk factors.Find out your family history. It’simportant information to have. Iknew that my maternal grand-mother died of breast cancerand that her oldest daughter (myaunt) had elective mastecto-mies.

3. Develop a dialogue withthe women in your life who aremost important to you. Ask themif they’ve had a mammogramlately and whether they do self-exams. I know it’s awkward atfirst but it will become less soover time. Turn it into a humor-ous exchange; whatever it takesto have the conversation.

That dialogue is a stepping-stone. You can’t cross the finishline until you take the first babysteps.

Halloran, a Highland Heightsresident, is a women’s productconsultant at St. Elizabeth Edge-wood and in 2006 foundedChicks and Chucks, a nonprofitresource for breast cancer pa-tients in need of financial andemotional support. Halloran hashelped raise roughly $450,000 forher foundation and the Ameri-can Cancer Society combined.She was honored as an EnquirerWoman of the Year in 2009.

In the first meeting betweenthe two schools since 1998, Si-mon Kenton scored 42 unan-swered points on the way to a42-3 rout of Highlands at home.

Simon Kenton built up a 28-3halftime lead as the Pioneers in-tercepted three of Highlands’quarterback Austin Hergott’sfirst half passes, and six total forthe game. Junior cornerbackTrent Kincaid, who led North-ern Kentucky last year witheight interceptions, had three,and junior Casey Mitchell addedtwo.

“We knew they were going tocome out and throw the ball be-cause we have a very good run-ning defense,” Kincaid said.“We just had to stop themthrough the air. I’m glad I hadthree picks, but it’s all for theteam.”

With the win, the Pioneersmoved their all-time recordagainst the Bluebirds to just 2-25. Their only other win came in1974. Members from that 1974team were on the field for thecoin toss, and celebrated in thelocker room with the Pioneersimmediately following the win.

“It was really neat,” Marks-berry said. “After the game Iwanted the two groups to meet –40 years later, two groups of sen-iors who had beaten those guys.I’ve always tried to build someof those connections with thepast and learn about the historyof the school, and I just thoughtthat was a perfect opportunityto do it.”

“We’re really proud of thisteam,” Dave Meenach, a run-ning back and outside lineback-er on the ‘74 team, said. “Forty-one years ago, we beat High-lands 10-7 and it hasn’t beendone since by Simon Kenton, sowe were proud to see anotherteam do it. This team has a lot ofpotential.”

Senior running back DillonPowell added four rushingtouchdowns and reached 1,000total yards for the season by tal-lying 189 yards on 22 carries.The Pioneers outrushed theBluebirds 250-129.

“Obviously they have 100years of tradition and they’re anamazing program and it’s al-ways great to beat them,” Pow-

ell said. “But we honestly justplayed it as a regular game. Weworked on ourselves this weekin practice, did everything wecould to make ourselves a betterteam, and obviously that trans-lated on the scoreboard to-night.”

Mitchell picked off Hergotton the ensuing possession andreturned it to the Pioneers’ 44.Powell then had a 21-yard run tomove into Highlands’ territory,and eventually scored from fouryards out.

“I felt like there was a littlepressure on us tonight, whetherit was self-created or just in gen-eral,” Marksberry said. “Ourkids played a little tight in thebeginning. (Highlands) wasplaying well and had some mo-mentum, but the interceptionsjust makes them hang theirheads.”

Kincaid’s first interceptionof the game ended a promisingnine-play Highlands drive in-side the redzone early in thefirst quarter. His second inter-ception helped put the Blue-birds away. Just moments afterPowell’s touchdown run, hepicked off Hergott at the Blue-birds’ 23. Three plays later Si-mon Kenton quickly pushedtheir lead to 20-3 on a 10-yardtouchdown pass from junior

Cameron Racke to classmateLuke Vance.

“Trent (Kincaid) is unbeliev-able,” Marksberry said. “I don’tknow how he does it. He’s goingto break our career interceptionrecord. He’s at 12 right now andthe record is 14. He finds thatball, and I think he kinds of hidesonly being 5-foot-7. He does atremendous job of making playswhen the ball comes to him.”

Senior Dylan Hampton gavethe Pioneers’ a 28-3 lead at half-time with a 22-yard touchdownrun just before the end of thehalf.

The Pioneers dominated af-ter intermission.

Mitchell’s second intercep-tion led to a 6-yard touchdownrun by Powell, and Kincaid’sthird pick setup Powell’s fourthTD, a five yard run that set therunning clock rule into effectwith 3:24 to play in the thirdquarter.

Racke finished the game 12-of-17 passing for 141 yards withone touchdown and no intercep-tions.Simon Kenton senior Tay-lor Galbraith added a sixth in-terception when he picked offHighlands backup quarterbackBrady Gosney on the first playof the fourth quarter.

Class 6A district opener.Beechwood beat Holy Cross

55-21. Senior quarterback KyleFieger hooked up with BrettSlusher eight times for 150yards and three touchdowns.

Fieger finished with 283yards on 13 of 15 passing andfour TD passes. Slusher addedthree carries for 52 yards.

Pioneers rout Highlands to stay perfectJames [email protected] Gannett News Service

JIM OSBORN FOR THE RECORDER

Simon Kenton’s Jacob Harney breaks up a pass intended for Highlands’Griffin Huber.

COVINGTON — Sisters canfight with each other but theyalso have each other’s back andmore often than not, they worktogether.

The Holy Cross girls soccerteam has a lot of sisterly bondsthis year. Four of the team’s sev-en seniors have a younger sisterin the program, and two othersets of siblings have helped theteam as well, as the Indianshave put together a solid 9-5 sea-son through Sept. 27. That in-cluded a recent seven-gamewinning streak.

“It’s a lot of fun,” said HolyCross senior Emilie McCaffrey.“It helps us get to know eachother better and it gives usmore team chemistry.”

McCaffrey, the starting goal-keeper and a team captain, isjoined in the program by fresh-man Abby. Senior DanielleHobbs has a sophomore siblingnamed Kiley. Senior captainJewel Gerding, has sophomoreJessie, and senior MakenzieThelen has sophomore Sami. Ju-nior Olivia Arlinghaus andfreshman Laney Arlinghaus are

also on varsity, and middle-school twins Audrey and Mag-gie Davis are also in the pro-gram.

“It definitely helps everyoneget to know each other and theirsisters,” Emilie said. “That’swhy our team is so close. It’sthat you spend more time to-gether and have common inter-

ests, going to school together.We have more to talk about.”

The sisterhood has helped tobring the classes together

“We’re all crazy and fun andwe have a lot of good energy to-gether,” Emilie McCaffery said“We’re friends at school. We satdown before the season and ev-eryone listed their goals. It was

interesting to hear everyone’sperspective from the differentgrades. We’ve accomplished agood amount of them .

Holy Cross hosts PendletonCounty Oct. 5 then goes to DixieHeights Oct. 7 and crosstown ri-val Holmes Oct. 8.

Coming off highschool careers wherethey helped pave the wayfor history at some ofNorthern Kentucky’s topprograms, several rivalsare working together tomake history at the col-lege level.

The Union College vol-leyball team is 13-3through Sept. 25, and un-defeated (7-0) in the Ap-palachian Athletic Con-ference after a big 3-2win over Bryan (Tenn.) ina battle for first place.

Among those leadingthe way is junior Julia Ed-monds, a graduate ofCooper High School.

“I feel this year wehave a really strongteam,” Edmonds said.“We have a lot of return-ers but we’re still prettyyoung. I feel we’ve be-come really strong andwe’ve improved a lot.”

Union, located in Bar-bourville, Ky., in thesoutheastern quadrant ofthe commonwealth, hasbenefited from the skillof Edmonds, who isfourth on the team in killsand leading the Bulldogsin blocks with 41. She wasrecently named AAC At-tacker of the Week aftercollecting 18 total kills ina pair of wins.

“My favorite thing isthe fact we’re like a fam-ily,” she said. “Any timeanyone has a problem wehelp out and lend a hand.Schoolwork, family, we

all support each other.”Edmonds had 352 total

kills her firsts two sea-sons and was on the all-conference freshmanteam two years ago.

“She came in the sametime I did,” said headcoach Jeremy Wise.“She’s developed a lot ev-ery year and we’ve chal-lenged her. She’s done ev-erything we asked her todo. She’s stepped into aleadership role and be-come the captain of our

juniorclass.”

Thestartingsetter isChandlerGray, aseniorwho had594 assistslast sea-

son. She averages nearlyfive assists per set thisseason. A CampbellCounty High School grad-uate, Gray was an all-freshman pick threeyears ago and is a two-time academic all-confer-ence pick. Younger sisterCarson Gray has joinedher on the Union roster,and has played about halfthe sets in her first yearon the team.

“It’s nice for them toplay together here andtheir family is enjoyingit,” Wise said. “They’reboth cut out of the samemold, they’re great lead-ers and great setters.They’re great competi-tors. They love to win andthey love pushing their

teammates to the nextlevel. After Chandlerleaves, Carson will prob-ably step up into the samerole.”

Chandler Gray had aseason-high 25 assists inthe five-set win over Bry-an.

“I love playing withthem,” Edmonds said. “Ilove having her as a set-ter. It was weird at firstand now we get to play to-gether I wouldn’t have itany other way.”

Summer Manning, asenior, played at ScottHigh School, which wonthree district titles whenshe was there and hassince won the 10th Regiontitle the past two seasons,reaching the state semislast year. Manning hasplayed every set for theBulldogs this season andis second on the team indigs.

Sophomore Jenna Nel-son, from Boone CountyHigh School, started sev-en matches last year andhas played in about halfthe sets this season.

Carson Gray played ona10th Region title team in2012. The Jaguars havehad a lot of success in re-cent years after openingin 2007.

“We won the CakeClassic as a sophomore,”Edmonds said. “It was thefirst tournament Cooperever won. I had a lot ofhelp to help develop myskills.”

When working withmen and women on theirjourney of weight loss, Ioften implement onesimple rule: “Speak yourgoals out loud.” Many ofmy clients look at mequestioningly initially, butonce I explain, this simpleact becomes one of themost powerful tools theyhave in fighting the “bat-tle of the bulge.”

The explanation forspeaking your goals issimple. Whenever yousay something out loud itbecomes real in yourworld. Keeping it in yourhead, just pondering orthinking about it, neverreally brings about ac-tion. But saying it outloud, preferably withinearshot of someone whowill hold you accountable,begins your journey to-ward success.

This tool became veryreal for me in my walkwith the Lord a few Sun-days ago when I heard ateacher and wonderfulfriend speak in class,“Did you know that Satancannot read yourthoughts? The only weap-ons he has are the wordsyou speak out loud.” Af-ter meditating on that fora few moments I realizedone crucial thing; Satanoften has his way in mylife because of what I say.My moaning regardingmy endless to-do list, thegroaning about the kidsfighting and whining;about homework andfriends, this is what heuses against me. What awake-up call.

In that moment, Scrip-tures began to flood mymind. 1 Thessalonians5:18 reminds us, “In ev-erything give thanks: forthis is the will of God.”(Emphasis mine.) Philip-pians 4:6 has similar in-structions, “Do not be

anxiousaboutanything,but ineverysituation,by pray-er andpetition,withthanks-giving,

present your requests toGod.”

I decided that Satanwould not have a footholdany longer. I would not beable to completely stopthe moaning and groan-ing from entering mymind, but I had greatcontrol over what I spoke.

The result has beennothing short of mirac-ulous. When worriescreep in, instead of speak-ing them out in fear, Iimmediately speakthanks to God for takingcare of the situation. Ithas been especially pow-erful with regard to mychildren. I often findmyself burdened by theirsituations with school andfriends. But just as theLord has been so graciousin so many areas of mylife, He has shown greatlove and mercy here too.When I find myself over-ly concerned and wor-ried, I simply speak outloud, “God, you are soawesome! Thank you forsending friends into mychildren’s lives that willbuild them up and bringthem closer to you. Praiseyou for building them upas faithful sons anddaughters for you.” Whata blessing to speak lifeinto difficult situations;just “Say it to make itreal!”

Applesalso contain phytochem-icals that may help pre-vent many chronic dis-eases including cancer,heart disease, asthmaand diabetes.

The United States ishome to more than 2,500varieties of apples. Sev-eral of those are grown inKentucky, including RedDelicious, Rome, Wine-sap, Gala, Jonathan, Cort-land and Golden Deli-cious. You can get Ken-tucky-grown apples atorchards, farmers mar-kets and some grocerystores across the state.Look for the KentuckyDepartment of Agricul-ture’s “Kentucky Proud”label when shopping.

When selecting ap-ples, look for firm, crispand colorful fruit. Avoidapples with shriveledskins, bruises, wormholes or decayed spots.Apples last longer inyour refrigerator, eitherin the crisper drawer orin an unsealed plasticbag.

You can leave applesout on the counter for afew days, but an exten-sive period of time atroom temperature will

causeapples toshriveland loseflavorandcrisp-ness.Storeapplesseparate-ly fromvegeta-

bles, because applesnaturally release smallamounts of ethylene gasthat can damage lettuceand other produce.

I will be teaching aprogram on “Apples” atthe Erlanger branch ofthe Kenton County Li-brary at 7 p.m. Wednes-day, Oct. 7. Call the li-brary to register at 859-962-4000
