A collaborative effort by severalfire chiefs to enhance safety for fire-fighters and residents while keepingcosts under control has been recog-nized as a leader nationally.

The Northeast Fire Collabora-tive is among seven finalists forthe 2010 International Associa-tion of Fire Chiefs Fire ServiceAward for Excellence.

The award recognizes innova-tions and achievements in manag-ing resources to reduce the loss oflife and property from fire andother emergencies.

The four chiefs: Sharonville’sRalph Hammonds, Blue Ash’sRick Brown, Sycamore Township’sWilliam Jetter and Loveland-Symmes’ Otto Huber will be hon-ored during the awards presenta-tion in Chicago Aug. 27.

The Mason Fire Department,led by Chief John Moore, joinedthe collaborative in 2009.

The creation of the collabora-tive was explained in the nomina-tion submitted by Hammonds.

“In 2008, the economic condi-tions dictated that departmentslook for better ways to fund andstaff departments nationally,” hewrote. “There were several com-mon issues brought to the table,

including staffing, fire ground safe-ty and fire ground management.

“The focus shifted to otheroperational areas, and how wecould act as one agency and yetmaintain our own identity. Work-ing collaboratively, the depart-ments were able to establish the

common ground of philosophy,response, fire ground operationsand being fiscally responsible.”

The unique characteristic of thecollaborative, Hammonds wrote,was its ability to provide animproved service model with lesscost on a voluntary basis, without

further regulatory action.“We wanted to improve the

safety of the firefighter and be asfiscally responsible in operatingour fire departments as possible,”Hammonds said.

The village of Evendale is fill-ing in some of the empty spacealong Glendale-Milford Road.

A large portion of the lot adja-cent to Walmart on Glendale-Mil-ford Road is vacant, but KineticVision will soon open a new build-ing in the location at EvendaleCommons Business Park.

“Kinetic Vision has an excellentclient base representing some ofthe biggest names in the Cincin-nati business landscape. It was

very flattering that they made achoice to be in Evendale,” saidJack Cameron, Evendale assistantto the mayor.

Kinetic Vision, a product devel-opment consulting company, hasbeen open since 1985 in BlueAsh.

Vice President Jeremy Jarrettsaid the move to Evendale givesthe company the opportunity tobuild its own office rather thanrent and to remain in the Glen-dale-Milford corridor. The newbuilding will be around 10,000square feet. Their current buildingis 4,500 square feet.

“(The new building) will allowus room to grow and have roomfor more employees,” Jarrett said.

As part of the agreement whenEvendale village council approveda six-year tax abatement of 75percent, Kinetic Vision will add

two to three full-time and one totwo part-time employees eachyear. They have 23 full-time andseven to 10 part-time employees.Jarrett said most of the part-timeemployees work for Kinetic Visionas part of a co-op programthrough Purdue University andthe University of Cincinnati.

Councilmember ChristianSchaefer said at the December2009 council meeting that KineticVision would add $31,464 to thevillage income.

Kinetic Vision is expected to bein the new facility by Oct. 1.

“Through the collabora-tive and mutual aid, we canmeet the national standardsby being able to buy as alarger group, which helpsdrive the cost of operationsdown,” he said.

“What we’re doing iseffective,” Jetter said. “Wehave saved money on gearand supplies, and worktogether on training.

“We are looking at smalltangible items that add up inyour budget,” he said.

“In today’s environmentand economy, the NortheastFire Collaborative was proac-tive in sharing resources andworking together to enhancefirefighter safety and fireprotection services whilebeing as fiscally responsiblewith the taxpayers’ moneyas possible,” Brown said.

“Today, with the econo-my we’re in, and shrinkingbudgets, we have to look atsmarter ways of providingservices to our residents,”Huber said.

“Our big thing is the riskmanagement part,” Jettersaid. “Firefighters are atmore risk than they haveever been.”

“On a daily basis wewant to make sure our fire-fighters are safe, and hav-ing appropriate staff andtraining keeps our firefight-ers safe,” Huber said.

Though the departmentswork together in purchasingand training, each remainsindependent.

“We’re acting as a dis-trict,” Hammonds said, “butwe didn’t lose control of thecustomer service of our

communities.”Brown said the chiefs are

excited about being finalistsfor the award.

“It’s a great feeling to berecognized for the work weput in to make the fire col-laborative work.


Three former employeesof Wyoming’s recreationdepartment have refiled a

lawsuit against City Manag-er Bob Harrison and thecity.

The city of Wyoming hadrequested that the case beremoved from Hamilton

County, asking for a federalforum after an original filingin Hamilton County in thefall 2009.

The plaintiffs thenrequested that it be returnedto Hamilton County, and onAug. 3, Judge S. ArthurSpiegel dismissed the feder-al action.

The original lawsuit fol-lowed the termination orresignation of three employ-ees: Cathy Deters, MichaelPearl and Monica Miller.

They were fired orresigned after allegedlydrinking alcoholic bever-ages at the recreation centerwhile a youth event wastaking place in the building.

Wyoming SolicitorFranklin Klaine issued astatement about the federallawsuit.

“The federal court dis-missed the plaintiffs’ law-suit, finding, among otherthings, that the allegationsregarding the Family andMedical Leave Act failed tostate a cause of actionagainst the city or the citymanager,” the statementsaid.

“Plaintiffs (Deters, Pearland Miller) had asked thefederal court to dismiss theFamily and Medical LeaveAct claim so the court’s dis-missal of only that claimwas no surprise or victoryfor either party,” defenseattorney Randy Frekingresponded. “Hopefully, thistransfer back to state courtwill facilitate a speedy reso-lution.”

Freking refiled the case

in Hamilton County thenext day and provided acopy to the Tri-CountyPress.

“The plaintiffs thenchose to refile in statecourt,” Klaine said in thestatement. “There are nonew allegations in the com-plaint filed Aug. 4 in theHamilton County Court ofCommon Pleas.

“The only difference inthe new lawsuit is that thecity of Wyoming’s recre-ation director is no longer anamed party, and that theplaintiffs have dropped twoadditional claims plead inthe original complaint,”Klaine said, referring toRecreation Director MissyO’Brien.

Freking said he prefers totry the case in HamiltonCounty.

“We think this is a greatvictory because Judge (S.Arthur) Spiegel properlyrecognized this case as astate law case,” he said.

“We asked him to send itback to state court and hebasically did.

“We hope this facilitatesa resolution that we havebeen seeking all along.”

Though the current law-suit closely resembles theoriginal case, Freking saidnew information has beenobtained.

“We have found maleemployees who have notbeen interviewed, much lessdisciplined after being founddrinking on city premises,”Freking said.

“We’ve got two individu-als who were suspected ofdrinking on company prop-erty within a month ofwhen these three were ter-minated,” Freking said.“There was not even aninvestigation much less atermination.”

The lawsuit also ques-tions whether policy wasviolated as it is worded bythe city, and challenges theconsistency of enforcement

of the policy that requirestermination “only in theevent of the use of a con-trolled substance.”

The alcoholic beveragesallegedly consumed thatnight were not consideredcontrolled substances.

The lawsuit also address-es the interviews that wereconducted after the allega-tions.

It describes the inter-views as “intimidating,”with the presence of aSpringfield Township policeofficer, and the threeemployees being “forced towait in separate roomswhile the city conducted itsalleged interviews.”

Deters’ interview lastedthree hours, the lawsuitstates, and all three wererequired to take lie detectortests.

These details differedfrom other investigations insimilar situations, the law-suit states.

Klaine declined to com-ment on the specifics of thecase.

“As in the past, the Cityof Wyoming City Counciland administration will notcomment on the substantiveissues in pending litigation,other than to say that wecontinue to believe all ofthese claims are baseless,”Klaine said in his statement.“Accordingly, the city ofWyoming and City ManagerBob Harrison will continueto aggressively defendagainst the plaintiffs’ merit-less claims.”

BRIEFLY


A property owner whoserequest to demolish rentalproperty was denied byGlendale’s Planning andHistoric Preservation Com-mittee has appealed to vil-lage council for permissionto raze the house.

Bonnie Schreiber wantsto demolish the house onWashington Avenuebecause estimates to reno-vate it to meet buildingrequirements are prohibi-tive, she argued through theappeal.

Her son, Tom Schreiber,appeared before council onher behalf during the Aug. 2meeting, asking for coun-

cil’s support to raze thestructure.

Schreiber needs permis-sion to raze the housebecause it’s considered acontributing structure to thehistoric district of Glendale.

The 1,300 square-foothome, with two bedroomsand one bathroom, wasbuilt in 1865, but has falleninto severe disrepair.

The building itself, val-ued at just under $50,000,would need $130,000 inrepairs, according toSchreiber.

A previous requestbefore the Glendale Plan-ning and Historic Preserva-tion Committee had beendenied.

Committee members said

they were not convinced theproperty could not be eco-nomically restored, which isone of the criteria for demo-lition in the historic district.

The house is considereda contributing structure,which is a building that ishistoric as 50-to-100 yearsold, but not one of the orig-inal homes in the historicdistrict.

That differs from a piv-otal structure, which is anoriginal building in Glen-dale. The village has 59such buildings.

The second criteria thatthe committee said therequest failed to meet waswhether the character of theneighborhood would beadversely affected.

“GPHPC felt the housedoes contribute to the char-acter of the neighborhoodas it is recorded on the 1869atlas and is estimated tohave been built in 1865 andthe neighborhood would beadversely affected if demol-ished,” according to min-utes of the July 22 meeting.

Schreiber disagreed.“We believe there are

some things that should notbe preserved,” he said.“This is disintegratingwood, bricks and mortar.

“The only thing historicabout this structure is itsage.”

Council will hold a spe-cial meeting Aug. 23 at theTown Hall.

hottest day of the year, everyonecame out to celebrate,” Geigersaid.

Geiger’s main project for herfirst year in the advancementdirector position was organizingSaturday’s festivities. The motherof two Moeller alums said she wasable to pull off a successful eventbecause of the hundreds of volun-teers, the sponsors who helpedfinance the event and because sheis passionate about the schoolwho gave her two sons a goodeducation.

A word about the sponsors

A group of Ursuline Academystudents spent nearly three weeksthis summer in Aachen, Germanyas part of their AcademicExchange with that country.

While there, they stayed withGerman families whose daughtershad visited Ursuline earlier in theschool year and stayed with Ursu-line student-families. Accompa-nied by German teacher LyndaHoffman-Jeep and English teacherShauna Whelan, the studentsattended classes at the SisterSchool, visited numerous sites inAachen including the Cathedralwhich was designed in part byCharlemagne, the Technical Uni-versity, and several cultural attrac-tions such as a bakery where theywere introduced to the Aachencookie specialty by a master baker.

Many also traveled to theNetherlands and Belgium, wherethey stayed at a youth hostel andvisited such sites as the JewishMuseum designed by Americanarchitect Daniel Libeskind. Thegroup also took a boat tour of thecity, went to the opera and ballet,visited historical monuments, sawthe Berlin Wall and the capitalbuilding, the Berlin Zoo and didsome shopping and dining. Anoth-er highlight was a visit to Cologneand St. Ursula Church (St. Ursulais the patron saint of that city).

“UA’s German AcademicExchange is part of the GermanAmerican Partnership Program(GAPP www.goethe.de/gapp)which was started in the 70s toencourage high school exchangesbetween the USA and Germany.The program is funded in part bythe Congress of the United Statesand the German Congress. Thegoals are to strengthen relationsbetween the USA and Germany, togain a deeper understanding of Ger-many’s place within the Europeanunion and the world, to gain anunderstanding of German cultureand history, and to improve the stu-

dents’ German,” Hoffman-Jeepsaid.She added, “A goal is to gain

an understanding for what cultur-al fluency might mean in the Ger-man setting and then apply theseinsights or this template to otherinternational experiences. UA stu-dents will be competing for jobsinternationally and will also nec-essarily work in international set-tings; many of their parents areengaged internationally now andvalue this opportunity for theirdaughters. An academic exchangeis an effort to prepare UA studentsfor professional (and perhaps per-sonal) life in the 21st century.”

Senior Megan Valerio said thatshe learned a lot about our cultureand how the Germans are moreconscious about saving energyand caring for our planet thanAmericans. She explained thatmost people ride buses, trains andbikes everywhere because it issafe, reliable and easier than a car.They also take fast showers anddon’t turn their lights on oftenbecause they just use natural light.

Another observation was thatGerman people eat bread withalmost every meal and conse-quently there are many bakeries(in addition to ice cream shops) in

Aachen.“I loved my experience in Ger-

many and I am planning on goingback to visit my host family.Everything felt more simple there.Germany has so much history, thebuildings are old and beautiful, andthey have cobblestone streets. Itfelt like a dream when I was there.”

Whelan agreed that theexchange was beneficial on manylevels.

“ I found the trip to be an over-whelming learning experience forboth myself and the students. Onemajor thing I learned is how impor-tant it is for us as Americans tobroaden our worldview, as Ger-mans and Europeans are wellahead of us in understanding andlearning about other cultures. Thesmall and large differencesbetween our culture and Germanculture allowed us to recognize thatthere is not one ‘right’ way to goabout life. We had the opportunityto walk or take public transporta-tion to almost all of our daily com-mitments. We saw in action theGerman people’s commitment tolearning about other languages andcountries, much more than we doin American culture. The German’sdeep respect for history was reflect-ed not only in their preservation ofbuildings but also in their preserva-tion of memories and stories.”

The Wyoming HighSchool volleyball team hasstrong returning talent andcould be poised for a deeptournament run in the 2010season.

“We’re looking prettysolid,” head coach Julie Plittsaid. “I think we’re not onlylooking to compete for aleague title, but I think thisteam can compete for astate title. It’s probably thebest high school team I’veever coached.”

The Cowboys have adeep pool of talented play-ers but will be led by juniorEmily Fraik.

Fraik was a First-TeamAll-Cincinnati Hills Leagueselection as a sophomoreand is drawing interest fromDivision I colleges. Sopho-more Tatiyana Ali was aSecond-Team All-CHL selec-tion as a freshman and willbe another standout forWyoming. Lillian Krekeler isa solid outside hitter whowill be in the mix for theCowboys and two of thesenior leaders for Wyomingwill be Taylor Weis andBridget Bowling.

Plitt said the senior leadership would be importantfor Wyoming as the Cow-boys will rely on severalyounger players, and therecould even be several fresh-men on the team.

“That leadership is soimportant,” Plitt said. “Itplays such an importantrole because I can’t be withthem all the time and I defi-nitely think our seniors willlead the girls in the rightdirection.”

To get an idea of wherethis Wyoming team couldbe this season, Plitt talkedabout the offseason campthey attended at PurdueUniversity.

“Indiana volleyball issolid all-around and weplay against some topteams and some statechampions,” she said. “Lastyear when we went to this

camp, we didn’t win a gamein three days. This year, wefinished eighth out of 33teams. They did a greatjob.”

Wyoming has a toughschedule that opens withFairfield and features anearly match against RogerBacon.

“We start with sometough competition,” Plittsaid. The team also playsMason, in addition to theusual league opponents.“Indian Hill, Taylor, Madeiraand Reading always putsolid teams out there so we

won’t be able to walkthrough the league. We’regoing to have to play hardbut I think we can do it.”

Plitt said the girls havebeen working extremelyhard in conditioning andthat she was looking for-ward to the first day of prac-tice.

“I can’t wait. I’m reallyexcited for the season and Ithink the girls are too,” shesaid. “Hopefully, we’ll havelots of fans support us likethey always do at Wyomingbecause we will put on ashow.”

Wyoming eyesCHL, state titles

The Princeton HighSchool tennis team featuresfive returning juniors andthat core should lead theVikings to a successful sea-son on the courts.

“We’re going to be prettysolid,” head coach BrianMulholland said. “We havesome good starters back forus.”

Princeton will be led byValeta Brown, who played

No. 2 singles for the Vikingsin 2009 and was 8-2. JennaKufeldt played No. 3 singlesin 2009 and was 4-1 andwill be another standout forPrinceton. Amy Nguyen andHolly Grender played dou-bles last season and shouldbe a key doubles team forPrinceton this season.

“We’re expecting a lotout of them,” Mulhollandsaid. “Experience is veryvaluable and quite a few ofthose girls played on varsitytheir freshmen and sopho-more years, so we knowhow to work with eachother. Having this manykids back is big for us.”

One problem for Prince-ton is playing in the GMC,one of the toughest leaguesin the state. Princeton wasfifth in the GMC in 2009with a 5-4 league record

and a 7-7 record overall.“It’s a very tough, tough

league,” Mulholland said.“We just fight to try to

get in that group of theLakotas and Mason andSycamore and break intothat top four. It helps thegirls prepare for the tourna-ment though, becausethere’s not much theyhaven’t seen after you’vegone through the leagueschedule. It’s a great meas-uring stick.”

With such a young team,

the Vikings could be evenstronger if everyone returnsfor 2011. The season at endthough should still be agood one for Princeton.

“They are a very coach-able, tight-knit group,” Mul-holland said. “We hopeeveryone just continues toget better and have themindset that we can playwith anybody.”

Mulholland said thechemistry was great in2009 and he expects that tocarry over to this season.

“It’s just a really greatgroup to work with and theyenjoy being together,” hesaid. “It’s a really fun groupto coach.”

Princeton starts its tennisseason on Aug. 18 againstLittle Miami.

Numerous returningplayers with experience fromUrsuline Academy’s victoryin the 2009 Division I statefinals – the fourth state titlein the volleyball program’shistory – are back for fifth-year head coach Jeni Case inthe hopes of defending theLions’ title in 2010.

But Ursuline’s undefeat-ed 29-0 season in 2009doesn’t quite provide thesame teachable moment asthe Lions’ loss in the 2008state finals.

Last summer, avengingthe 2008 loss was men-tioned early and often byCase and her players.

But now the Lions havea title to defend as the teamattempts to ignore its highmark from one season ago.

“Every year is new and itdoesn’t matter what you didlast year,” Case said of hermentality entering the 2010campaign. “We lost somereally strong players so Idon’t feel like (this team) willbe playing with pressure.”

With that said, Case isstill confident her bunch canrise to the top again.

“I just tell them there’sno reason they can’t do itagain but we don’t reallytalk about (defending thestate title) much,” Case said.“They are a talented groupand they want it.”

Ursuline’s roster is popu-lated by six key returning

players with a core of nineseniors leading the way.

Though the Lions don’thave a season-ending lossto fuel them, Case believesUrsuline’s strong leadershipwill help carry the team.

“The seniors want to endon a good note and they’vealready had good careers,”Case said. “When you havenine seniors on the team it’skind of neat. You don’t getthat often.”

Ursuline returns fivesenior starters includingKori Moster (libero), Christi-na Beer (middle hitter),Olivia Johnson (right hitter),Elena Lohr (outside hitter)and Abby Engdahl (outsidehitter, defensive specialist)in addition to returning jun-ior Noelle Langenkamp(middle hitter).

Beer, a third-year starter,finished fifth in the Girls’Greater Cincinnati Leaguelast fall with 231 kills.Moster is committed to

Michigan State Universityand finished second in theGGCL with 493 digs in 2009.

Langenkamp stands at6-foot-1 with Johnson at 6-foot in the hopes of replac-ing some of the firepowerlost from graduation includ-ing 2010 graduate JadeHenderson’s GGCL-leading

total of 366 kills.Senior Nikki Hill (setter)

and juniors Iris Brewer (set-ter) and Kate Reilly (righthitter) will also be key con-tributors, Case said.

Jamie Goldschmidt wasout all last season becauseof her back, Case said. Shewas honorable mention all-league her sophomore year.

“I think there’s definitelya possibility (that this year’steam will be as good as our2009 state championshipteam) just because he haveso many seniors and a corewho have been there,” Casesaid. “They will have to playa bigger role this year butwe could definitely be one ofthe top teams in the state.

“It will take a lot morework than it did last yearthough,” Case added.

Ursuline opens with a roadgame against Alter at 7 p.m.

Tuesday, Aug. 31, beforehosting its home openeragainst Notre Dame at 6:30p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 1.

Roger Bacon HighSchool girls’ volleyball teamis primed and ready to starta season that head coachRyan Bedinghaus hopeswill last deep into the post-season.

Roger Bacon is comingoff a successful campaign in2009, one that saw theSpartans compile a 21-5overall record and a 6-0record in Girls’ GreaterCincinnati League play.

That mark was goodenough to win the GirlsGreater Cincinnati LeagueGrey Central division, andpropelled Roger Bacon toDivision-III sectional anddistrict championships anda final state ranking of 16.

Hoping to improve onthat record, Roger Baconreturns senior middles AllyHawkins, who was secondteam all-conference, andAllie Henkel, who was anhonorable mention all-con-ference selection.

Hawkins ranked 23rd inthe GGCL in kills last sea-son, and Henkel alsoranked in the top 50. With-in their division, both play-ers ranked in the top 15.

In addition to Hawkinsand Henkel, the Spartansreturn a host of players withvarsity experience, andBedinghaus is pleased withtheir effort so far.

“All the girls haveworked very hard in the off-season,” said Bedinghaus,who was named GGCL GreyCentral coach of the year.

Standing in the way ofthe Spartans is a very toughslate of opponents, bothinside of the GGCL and out-side.

Roger Bacon opens theseason with a tough double-header against NewportCentral Catholic and MercyAug. 30.

Roger Bacon’s Septemberschedule includes a Sept. 9match against McNicholasand a Sept. 28 matchagainst Fenwick, whodefeated the Spartans lastseason.

“It’s always a hugeordeal when we playMcNick and Fenwick,” Bed-inghaus said.

The October schedulefeatures a budding rivalryas Roger Bacon travels toIndian Hill Oct. 9. Beding-haus is the former coach atIndian Hill and his sister isthe current coach, adding tothe intensity of the game.

Even with a very chal-lenging slate of games, Bed-inghaus is confident histeam is ready for anotherexcellent year.

“I think we can do just aswell if not better,” Beding-haus said. “I think they arehungry. I think it’ll be acompetitive season, butthey want to do better.”

posted these comments to astory about communities in theregion watching their bankinvestment revenues shrink toone-fifth to one-tenth what theywere two or three years ago:

“It’s killing seniors who depend oninterest income for living expenses. Theonly people benefitting are those whocouldn’t pay their bills and are looking torefinance and those about to beforeclosed on who now have a chance tosell their homes.

JEFF SWINGER/STAFF

Bengals fans seem to have mixed decisions on whether wide receiver Terrell Owens (81) will helpor hurt the team – particularly paired with Chad Ochocinco (85).

Aug. 4 questionsHow much of a difference

will Terrell Owens makes forthe Bengals, both on the fieldand off the field?

“It’s anybody’s guess. On onehand, he has some impressiveseasons (2000-2002 with SanFrancisco and 2007-2008 withDallas), but on the other hand, theability of anyone to endure therigors of professional football andcontinue to excel is limited.

“Owens is only three yearsyounger than Brett Favre, and hisposition (wide receiver) is proba-bly more demanding in terms ofstamina than Brett. For now, atleast for a year or so, the team ofChad and Terrell will be a formida-ble challenge for the Bengals’opponents.”

B.B.

“Hard to tell this early, butsince he has a reputation of speed,and with Ochocinco on the otherend of the line, the chances ofmore scoring might be greater forthis season.”

O.H.R.

“While Terrell’s arrival wascovered in a positive way and hebehaved quite well, his pastactions with multiple teams wor-ries me. I hope he has maturedand is now ready to be a teamplayer instead of the prima donnawe’ve seen too much of in thepast.

“My son and I have season

tickets and plan to give him a realchance. We just hope he doesn’tgive us any reason to boo him.”

R.V.

Making Duke payIf Duke Energy presses forward

to reduce its property taxes paid toschools and local governments,the utility should be required torefund to customers any portion ofthe taxes that are currently includ-ed in its rates.

My office – as the residentialutility consumer advocate – willtake appropriate measures toargue that these refunds occur. At

this time, Duke’s residential elec-tric rates are among the highest inthe state, surpassing those highrates paid in northern Ohio. Withresidential consumers continuingto struggle and stretch their budg-ets, a break for customers is onlyfair if Duke should persist with itsplan to reduce its property taxes.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Social Security recentlyredesigned its online frequentlyasked questions database contain-ing answers to hundreds of ques-tions.

Cincinnati Public Affairs Spe-cialist Sue Denny recently testedthe searchable database using aquestion posed by a local financialplanner: “Can you provide mewith some information about vol-untary suspension of retirementbenefits? We have a 66-year-oldclient who would like to furtherinquire about stopping his benefitsand the procedure, then what hecan expect when he decides torestart.”

Sue turned to the link “Have aquestion? Find an answer here” inthe upper right corner of SocialSecurity Online’s homepage atwww.socialsecurity.gov.

She typed in a version of thefinancial planner’s question – CanI withdraw my claim? – and hitthe red search button. Sue foundthe exact answer she was lookingfor:

Q. Can I withdraw my applica-tion for benefits if I change mymind?

A. Yes. If you applied for bene-fits and changed your mind, youcan complete the Request forWithdrawal of Application (FormSSA-521) and re-apply at a futuredate. Be sure to include on theform the reason you want to with-draw.

However, if you are alreadyreceiving Social Security benefitsand change your mind, you stillmay be able to withdraw yourSocial Security claim and reapplyat a future date. If you are alreadyreceiving benefits, withdrawingmeans the monthly amount youreceive in the future could behigher.

But you mustrepay all benefitsalready paid toyou. You canfind informationabout withdraw-ing your applica-tion on our Ifyou change yourmind page.

To get to the“If you changeyour mind”page, clickRequest for

Withdrawal of Application, whereyou will find a downloadable PDFversion of the SSA-521.

Beyond that, users of the FAQdatabase have several options:

• You can share the answeron social networking sites (e.g.Facebook, Twitter, and others);print the answer; e-mail the page;or be notified when the answer isupdated.

• You can ask another relatedquestion.

• You can indicate if theresponse was not useful. A textbox will pop up where you canprovide details and tell us how wecan make the answer more useful.(Please do not include your SocialSecurity Number or any other per-sonal information.) Your feedbackis for informational purposes only,and you will not receive aresponse.

• If you are unable to find theanswer to your question, you cancontact Social Security to submit aquestion to our support team.

Finally, you can reviewanswers that others found useful,including:

Q. When I start receiving ben-efits, will my benefit amount bethe same for the rest of my life?

A. Your benefit amount will

never decrease. Generally, yourbenefit amount will increase eachyear to protect you against infla-tion ... You also can increase yourmonthly benefit if you withdrawyour current application and applyfor benefits at a future date. If youdo that, the monthly amount willbe higher but you will need torepay all the benefits already paidon your account.

So the next time you have aSocial Security question, I stronglyencourage you to visit the newand improved database of fre-quently asked questions atwww.socialsecurity.gov. You’remore likely than ever to findexactly the information you need.

By Jeanne [email protected]

Scott Sonnenberg was amember of the LovelandHigh School concert, sym-phonic, lab and jazz bandsfor four years before gradu-ating in 2006.

Now Sonnenberg – whoplays the alto, tenor andbaritone saxophone and islearning flute and clarinet –is playing for a larger audi-ence.

Sonnenberg, 22, is start-ing his fifth year at OhioState University, where heis majoring in jazz studiesand plays in a jazz band oncampus.

He also has been playingwith the Ohio Air NationalGuard Band of the GreatLakes, also known as the555th Air Force Band andTriple Nickel, since he enlist-ed in the Air National Guardin April of 2006.

The band is based out ofthe 180th Fighter Wing atToledo Express Airport inSwanton, and Sonnenbergtravels there one weekend amonth to practice and playin concerts in the Toledoarea.

Two weeks each summerSonnenberg goes on activeduty with the guard bandand joins up with the U.S.Air Force Band of Flight atthe Wright-Patterson AirForce Base to play in con-certs in the Dayton area.

When the 555th AirForce Band played a concertin Blue Ash in early July,Sonnenberg participated.

“Playing with the AirForce Band has been greatand has given me manyunique experiences andopportunities,” said Son-nenberg, a senior airman.

“I hope to keep playingwith them for many yearsto come.”

“Everything has a story.”This quote is from a talented artist,

a lover of fine furnishings and awoman who embraces provenance.You get the most exquisite feeling ofbeing transported back to an era ofgood manners and decorum when youwalk into her shop.

Glendale resident Calista EllenBockenstette is the proprietor of Cal-ista B., LLC at 11 Village Square inGlendale (771-1404).

Every Wednesday from 2 p.m. to 5p.m. is tea time, when you can sit andchat in cozy surroundings and enjoysoothing music.

Calista lived in Glendale as a child,and still does. A graduate of UC’s Col-lege of Design, she studied art, archi-tecture and design, and spent severalyears at the Cincinnati Art Museum.Some of her own beautiful etchingswere featured in Traditional HomeMagazine two years ago.

You’ll find several of her signed andnumbered botanical intaglio printshanging in her shop.

Calista likes including the work oflocal artists such as Mary Mark andCindy Harlan Youse, Pat Clipson, JackMeanwell, Brian Joiner and JodySkowronek. One of her goals is to oneday present artisans who can demon-strate their skill at something such asrepairing the chips in crystal.

“I’ve learned a lot from those whoare experts in their fields. For instance,

you can remove asoiled spot fromtable linen by spray-ing water, lemonjuice and a little salton the area anddrape the linen overa dew covered bushin the early morningsun.”

I’m sure you arefamiliar with ThaneMaynard from theCincinnati Zoo, butdid you know thathe also makes furni-

ture? Calista features a lovely cherrywood chest he made. It looks antique.Expertly dovetailed, there isn’t a speckof artificiality about the piece. Thanealso refinishes wood pieces withoutstripping them.

Calista opened the shop March 1with an eye toward better economictimes when people will again entertainwith silver and crystal.

“These are beautiful things that willlast forever. The fun is in the hunt.People don’t realize that consignmentshops are good places to get gifts forothers.”

She has pewter and silver antiques,and lovely old fine china. A tigermaple highboy was made in NewHampshire about 1740. In addition toan 1825 kitchen cabinet and a dropleaf tea table, there is a stunning hand

tatted tablecloth of the same vintage,once owned by the last Countess ofEgmond. Beethoven wrote a sympho-ny about one of her ancestors.

Her daughter brought the tableclothin because she wanted it to go tosomeone who will love and appreciateit. In perfect condition, the tablecloth isbanquet size, 69-inches-by-137-inch-es with 18 matching, lace-edged linennapkins.

One woman brought in gorgeousbeaded purses that belonged to heraunt, who lived in Paris and lived tobe over 100. Come see the mahoganybookcase with leaded glass doors fromthe Burton Estate (American LaundryMachines).

Some items are inexpensivebecause Calista feels that everyoneshould be able to enjoy fine things.For instance, there are Coach andDooney and Bourke handbags at halfprice. When you see the cookie jarshaped like a pig with three apples onthe top, you’ll know that there is alighthearted atmosphere about theplace. Brimming with beauty, there isstill a sense of openness.

The American HeritageGirls are proud to announcetheir participation in thisyear’s Boys Scouts of Amer-ica Centennial Jamboree,making them the first all-girls’ organization to partic-ipate in this annual event.

Though young in com-parison, AHG has estab-lished itself as a highly-respected faith-based lead-ership program with anational network of morethan 10,000 members.

In June 2009, AHG andthe Boy Scouts of Americasigned a memorandum ofmutual support, namingAHG as the first all-girls’organization to be affiliated

with the BSA.“AHG is structured much

like the BSA and its pro-gram is also owned by itscharter organizations, mak-ing the two organizationsperfect bookend programsto one another,” AHGfounder and ExecutiveDirector Patti Garibay said.

The American HeritageGirls’ booth at the Jamboreefeatures a “Plinko -style”game where attendees playto win prizes including acommemorative patch fea-turing both AHG and BSA.

“The patches are a bighit,” said Laurie Cullen,national membership devel-opment manager for AHG.

“People are really excited tosee the AHG and BSA’smutual support of eachother commemorated onthis limited edition patch.”

In a recent publicationcarried by the Boy ScoutNational Supply Division,the BSA states, “Both theBSA and the AHG havedecided to work with eachother to establish a positiverelationship and to cooper-ate in establishing AHGunits and BSA units as aresult of the shared valuesand goals of both organiza-tions.”

The brochure continues,“This brother-sister combi-nation allows for both

moms and daughters, anddads and sons, to beinvolved together in similarprograms, thus building andmaintaining the familyunit.”

The word friend can be acatch-all word.

Some people boast abouttheir Facebook friends, “I have75 friends.” Others reply, “Oh,I have 125,250, or 410, onmine!”

High numbers make usfeel popular and wanted.

In his talks on friendships,priest psychologist HenriNouwen made some helpfuldistinctions. He said there arefive categories of people wecall friends.

The categories move froman outermost circle (where inti-macy is weak) to an inner cir-cle (where the intimacy factoris strongest).

The criterion for determin-ing these five levels of friend-ship is the degree and qualityof mutual self-disclosureinvolved.

Acquaintances are theouter category people. Weonly know each other superfi-cially.

They may be a teacher;

other par-ents wemeet atfield-sidewatchingour kidsplay soc-cer; some-one in ouryoga classor that wemet on theInternet; a

down-the-street neighbor, etc.The topics with acquain-

tances are the weather, sports,newspaper items, schoolissues, life generalities, etc.There’s familiarity but nodepth of communication. If wenever see them again it does-n’t matter.

Colleagues. These are thepeople with whom we work,volunteer, or meet while doinga project. When I taught high-school I was one of 71 teach-ers. We were friendly, joked,ate lunch together and chattedin the staff room.

Our topics were usuallyschool issues, certain students,athletics, gripes about theadministration or parents, or agood movie we’ve seen.

At times there was a littlemore conversation into familyor personal issues than withacquaintances, but not much.

Relatives. These “friends”are the assorted group of ourgrandparents, aunts anduncles, marriage in-laws,cousins, etc.

We may see them often orthen again only at weddings,funerals, holidays andreunions. But we have a histo-ry together and more knowl-edge about each other.

We may exchange minorconfidences or problems suchas how Uncle Brad wasinvolved in some kind ofshady business deal; Pam iscoping with being bi-polar;and Kimberly had a brief butpassionate affair with a mar-ried man.

But being a relative does

not mean we necessarilychoose them as deeper inti-mates.

Family and friends.These are the people withwhom we spend a great dealof our time and carry fondly inour hearts – parents, siblings,spouse, children, lifelongfriends, etc.

They know us better thananyone. There is a deeper feel-ing of affection, mutual sup-port, and trust. If we lose oneof them in death we grieveprofoundly.

Family members share alot with each other, but noteverything. A psychologicallyhealthy person has his or herown boundaries, inner life,secrets and individuality.

These components of inti-macy are shared only with

someone of our own choice,and it is usually someone whois not a blood relative.

Intimate friends. This isthe innermost circle of humanfriendship. It is usually ourspouse or closest friend. Sucha friendship is extremely diffi-cult to develop, and sadly, iseven lacking in some mar-riages.

Recent studies indicate thatcompared to similar polls inthe 1980s, there are fewerpeople today who believe theyhave a first-circle intimatefriend.

It requires mutual trust, in-depth and honest communica-tion, and time.

Our Facebook count maygive us the impression that wehave a thousand friends. Butit’s unlikely that this most inti-

mate-type friend is just one ofthe crowd.

This most significant cate-gory is not achieved if ourcommunication is chieflythrough e-mail or texting. Acrucial element is missing –presence.

Such a friend is a uniquetreasure and requires muchopenness and communication.

I have remembered foryears the wise words of a col-lege teacher of mine about thistruest kind of friend: “If in yourlifetime, you have one, or two,such persons in your life, con-sider yourself fortunate.”

The temperature on ourthermometer registered103.2 this afternoon.

And in the house, it was-n’t much cooler since I hadbeen making elderberry jellyand berry jams with my sis-ter, Edith and neighbor,Sandy.

But it made me thinkabout kids and adults whoare outdoors and involvedin sports. Proper hydrationis so important to goodhealth and optimum per-formance.

What I worry most aboutkids in this weather is that Iknow it takes longer for achild’s body to adjust toheat and humidity thandoes an adult’s, so we maynot recognize when a childis in trouble, hydrationwise.

Kids produce more bodyheat and don’t sweat asmuch as we do at the sameexertion level, so in hotweather, a young athlete isat increased risk for dehy-dration.

And remember, waterworks as a shock absorberin the body, so being

hydratedp r o t e c t sjoints, forboth kidsa n dadults.

Tha t ’swhy todayI’m shar-ing recipesfor goodhydration.It’s that

important.And be sure and check

on older folks, too. Theycan become dehydratedwithout realizing it.

Homemade sportsdrink for kids

From my co-authoredbook “The Official SnackGuide For BeleagueredSports Parents.” Check outcolleague Dawn Weather-wax Fall’s websiteSN2go.com for more infor-mation on hydration andkeeping your athletehealthy.

To dilute a powderedjuice drink, or juice fromconcentrate, use at least

twice the water recom-mended. Diluting the juicemay taste weak, but it willhydrate your child and giveenergy for the game.

Rita’s spa waterI shared this recipe with

Amy Tobin on her Aug. 8radio show on Q102. Checkout Amystable.com for thecomplete interview.

Amy loves this drink,and so does everyone whotries it. Here’s why: Lemonscontain vitamin C, whichhelps heal bruises, preventscancer and heart disease.

Vitamin C is also a pow-erful antioxidant, and thebody uses vitamin C tomanufacture collagen –that’s the stuff that gluescells together and helpsheals cuts, etc.

Again, the vitamin Callows your body to absorbcalcium better. Susan Parkerof Susan’s Natural Worldadvises that lemons are agentle liver cleanser.

Lemons contain potassi-um, and we know thatnourishes the brain, heartand muscles. It also helps

your body better utilize car-bohydrates and iron fromfood.

The mint is a great diges-tive and uplifting herb plusit “fools” your brain intothinking you’re fuller thanyou are. And stevia is a nat-ural sugar substitute herb.

Master recipe:Fill a jar or pitcher

halfway up with peppermintleaves, bruising the leavesas you go. Continue fillingabout 3⁄4 to the top withlemon slices, bruising theslices as you go.

Fill with good qualitywater, let infuse for 30 min-utes at least, and sweeten totaste. Use stevia, a naturalsugar substitute herb, whichis 30 to hundreds of timessweeter than sugar, or usehoney, or drink as is.

Check out my websiteabouteating.com for a videoand more information aboutstevia.

I like to add blueberries,raspberries or sliced straw-berries for a burst of colorand added nutrition. Thisdrink is refillable.

Frappé like McDonald’sHow about this on a blis-

tering hot day? Reader TomOhmer has been looking fora recipe.

When I called McDon-ald’s, I got a long list ofingredients. It started outwith normal items likewater, cream, sugar, milk,coffee extract, Dutch cocoa,etc.

Then it got dicey withwords only a chemist couldunderstand. Years ago incooking school, we made abase for fun drinks and it issimilar to recipes I found forthis drink. So here’s mytake on it.

Mix together:1⁄3 cup instant coffee, dry,

crushed1 cup sugar1 cup dry milk powder3⁄4 cup nondairy creamer1⁄2 cup Dutch cocoaDash or two of salt

To make frappé:Put a couple handfuls of

ice in a blender. Add 1⁄2 cupof half & half. Pour in 1⁄2 cupof mix. Blend on high until

smooth. Garnish withwhipped cream and choco-late syrup.

Tips from Rita’s kitchen• Non-alkalized, or natu-

ral, which is the traditionaltype.

• Dutch/alkalized has amilder taste, reduced acidityand is somewhat redder incolor.

• Special dark is a blendof the two.

Where has this summergone?

When I was a kid, myparents told me how timejust goes faster and fasterthe older you get, and bygolly they were right!

So as we cruise into themonth of August, here are afew things for you to dodoing in your garden andlandscape:

• Keep watering asneeded. Remember, oneinch of rainfall every 10days or so for establishedplants, so supplement asneeded. Less frequentwatering, but deep andthorough when you do.Newly planted plants gener-ally require watering moreoften.

Not sure how much rainfall your yard has gotten?Install that rain gauge!

• Keep deadheadingthose spent flowers onannuals, perennials androses. Removal of spentflowers encourages newgrowth, and new growthmeans more flowers. It mayalso help to keep thoseplants from gettingstretched and leggy.

• Annuals lookingstretched and leggy? Cutthem back! Most annuals

r e s p o n dnicely to agood haircutright now.Cut themback, wateras needed,and within acouple ofweeks you’llget newgrowth, new

flowers, and a whole newplant as we head into thefall months. Continue feed-ing annuals and perennialsas needed, and keep feedingthose container plantings asneeded.

• Stop feeding woodytrees and shrubs at thisstage, and be cautiousabout any pruning.Whole branch removal canbe done, but be cautiousabout severe pruning. Wedon’t want to encouragenew growth that may notharden off for the winter,and we don’t want toremove spring flower budsthat have already formed orwill be forming this month.

• Now’s the time tostart that fall garden.Beets, cabbage, carrots, col-lards, mustards, turnips,radishes, broccoli, Brusselssprouts, cauliflower, lettuce

and spinach can all beplanted right now, as wellas a late crop of beans.These are all cool tempera-ture loving plants; as theymature, they’ll be maturingin cooler fall weather.

• Keep planting peren-nials for colors that comeback year after year.

• Now’s the time to digand divide those iris. Cutthe leaves back to a third oftheir size, dig the rhizomeclump and wash soil off, cutrhizomes apart so each sec-tion has one healthy fan ofleaves, inspect and pitchrotted (decayed) or borer-infested rhizomes, prep soiland replant. Water well, andwater as needed.

• Keep harvestingfruits and veggies asthey ripen. Over ripenedfruits left in the garden areperfect habitats for insectsand diseases. Keep harvest-ing those herbs, and startdrying them for winter use.Don’t let those annual herbsflower, as that tells the plantto stop growing.

• Keep mowing thegrass on a regular basis(never remove more than athird of the blades each timeyou mow), and mow at ahigher level rather than

lower (3 to 3.5 inches).Change directions each timeyou mow, and keep thosemower blades sharpened.Throw those clippings backinto the turf. (Make sureyour clippings don’t make itout onto the street and windup washing down into thestreet drains.) We’ll evalu-ate the lawn for Septemberrenovation in mid-August.

• Fall is for planting,so take the time in Augustto get your planting plans inplace for the fall. Takeadvantage of local inde-pendent garden storesexpertise, which offer land-scape design services, andget your landscape plansdone now. Or, if you needprofessional installation aswell, make an appointmentwith your landscape design-er.

RELIGION

Café Chabad was back for thesummer on Sunday, Aug. 1, when140 Jewish adults joined CaféChabad for a fun evening of food,entertainment and socializing atChabad Jewish Center.

The evening featured a deli-cious menu of New York Kosherdeli favorites, including a choice ofclassic sandwiches such as cornedbeef, pastrami and smoked turkey,

knishes, authentic sour picklesand delicious pastry deserts.

While diners enjoyed the food,a lively “Newlywed Game” show(for the newlyweds and not-so-newlyweds) was led by entertain-ing guest host, Rabbi Abba Perel-muter.

“Rabbi Perelmuter was hilari-ous. He’s a combination of JackieMason and Henny Youngman. We

were laughing all night,” SteveFrankel said.

Rabbi Abba Perelmuter hails allthe way from Long Beach, Cal.,where he is the popular leader ofShul By the Shore.

“Cafe Chabad served up a sliceof the big apple with a side of Cal-ifornia entertainment,” Paul Gold-stone said. “Great food, greatcompany, and great entertainment

all added up to a very enjoyableevening at Cafe Chabad.”

Café Chabad has made a namefor itself in Cincinnati for provid-ing Jewish adults with socialevents that feature delicious food,great entertainment and goodcompany.

Conducted several timesthroughout the year, theseevenings are a time to meet up

with old and new friends in theJewish community.

The next Café Chabad will takeplace from 7:30 p.m. Saturday,Nov. 20; for adults only. Reserva-tions and more information atwww.ChabadBA.com, or 793-5200.
