COLUMBIA TWP. — Thedecision came down to fa-miliarity, as ColumbiaTownship signed a three-yearcontractwithRumpkefor waste collection ser-vices.

The three-year deal,which will cost taxpayers$681,525, includes curbside

recycling and waste pick-up service.

The township chose be-tween two bidders, ForestGreen and Rumpke.

The decision didn’tcome lightly, as ForestGreen’s bid was $14,000less than Rumpke’s bid.Both were three years inlength.

Columbia TownshipPresident Stephen Langen-

kamp said the decisioncame down to Rumpke’syears of service with thetownship.Hesaid the town-ship’s nine separate par-cels are difficult to get toknow, and changing overrecycling bins for all town-ship residents could havecaused issues with service.

Jeff Rumpke, vicepresident of Rumpke,spoke to trustees during a

recent meeting and statedthe company’s intentions tocontinue serving ColumbiaTownship.

He said the company re-duced its bid this year “byover20percent”bybecom-ing more efficient with re-cyclables and getting a bet-ter handle on fuel costs.

“We just tightened ourbid as much as we could,”Rumpke said. “Wewant the

business.”Township Administra-

torMichael Lemon said thedecision isn’t about whichbid is lowest, butwhich oneis “lowest and best.”

Langenkamp saidRumpke has done “a greatjob” serving the townshipand will likely continue todo so for the next threeyears.

“Not only do I get to show what I’mdoing, but I get to see the best of thebest throughout the country,” he said.

Projects are submitted and then re-viewed by a team of judges with a va-riety of backgrounds.

Each project relates to technologyin some way and involves innovativeteaching, said Martin.

Martin’s submission was a docu-mentary prepared by his studentscalled “Secrets of theDead:Writers atHome.”

The documentary examined a spe-cific writer and time period and fea-turedfour10 to12minutevideos focus-ing on Homer, Shakespeare, Dickensand Confucius.

“Our (project) required smallgroup collaboration,” said Martin. “Itinvolved traditional and electronic re-search.”

Martin, who is a resident of Marie-mont, said the project was totally stu-dent-driven. although he did prepare asmall introduction explaining the pro-ject in relation to the forum.

Martin collaborated on the projectwith another Cincinnati Country DaySchool teacher, Jeremiah McCall.

The documentary will be featuredalongwithother submissions in theon-line Microsoft Partners in LearningNetwork.For informationvisit the sitewww.pil-network.com.

EAST WALNUT HILLS — Therigors of aGGCLschedule can betough, but with St. Ursula’s re-cent win over Mercy, the Bull-dogs climbed over the .500 markfor the first time since Sept. 5.

And as the postseason looms,head coachBeckyEvans iswork-ing to get her squadgearedup forsoccer’s second season.

The Bulldogs have dealt withinjuries of late and have workedon adapting to new players in the

lineup.As theseasonwindsdown,Evans likes what she’s seen.

“I thinkover time, thegirlsarestarting to get a little better andare getting on the same page andrelaxing with the formations weare playing, “ Evans said.

Offensively, the Bulldogsscoring attack has been spreadaround.

During the last two seasons,the squad was able to count onMarissaWolf,whograduated lastspring.

But in her absence, the rosterhas come to realize everyoneplays a big role in the squad’s at-tack, according to Evans.

Through Sept. 26, Mary AliceVignola was tied for third in the

GGCL Scarlet with nine pointscoming off two goals and five as-sists.

Maddie Huster and KelseyDollenmayer are tied for fourthin the league with three goals.

Madeleine Pescovitz and Dar-by Schwarz have also combinedfor four goals.

“If we can attack and contin-ually have multiple players scor-ing, it makes it harder (for otherteams) to shut down our attackwhen you have other girls thatcan step into the play and finishfor us,” Evans said.

On defense, the squad’s gottenstrong play fromMeganNiebuhrand Pescovitz. Niebuhr sufferedan injury a few weeks back

against Dublin Coffman, but Pes-covitz has helped keep the de-fense organized.

Freshman goalkeeper OliviaSilverman has also done a solidjob during her first varsity sea-son and has emerged as a vocalleader. “She does a great job ofdemandingplayers towhere theyneed to go and keeping the backline organized,” Evans said.“Coming in a freshman, that’shuge.”

The secret for St.Ursula downthe stretch could be their abilityto strike first blood. “I keep say-ing this, but when we score first,we’ll typically win,” Evans said.“We’re a dangerous team whenwe score first.”

Adjustments key for BulldogsSUA scoring spreadthroughout teamBy NickDudukovichndudukovich @ communitypress .com

WALNUTHILLS—A close con-nection between volleyball play-ers at Purcell Marian andWalnutHills will turn into a charitableevent as the two squads squareoff Oct. 6 in a “Volley for theCure” event.

Betweentheschools, thereare13 players on varsity/junior var-sity who attended Nativity Ele-mentary inPleasantRidge.Of theformer Nativity classmates’mothers, three have undergonebreast cancer treatments, doublemastectomiesandarecancersur-vivors.

Thosemotherswillbe inatten-dance at Walnut Hills HighSchool when festivities begin at10:30 a.m. All profits from raf-

fles, t-shirt sales, pizza and bakesales will be donated to the SusanG.KomenFund for breast cancerresearch.

Three former Nativity girlsare on theWalnut Hills varsity insenior defensive specialistDevinMagner, junior hitter MeredithBailey and sophomore setter TiaKrimmer.

The Lady Eagles have strug-gled in the Eastern CincinnatiConference, but have hoveredaround the .500 mark overall un-der coach Michael Crofton.

“Turpinwashard,”Bailey saidof their league competition. “Ev-ery team in our conference is atoughgame.There’snotany teamin our conference that you don’thave to worry about.”

Magner, Bailey and Krimmerall started in the third grade atNativity. The 6-foot Bailey leadsthe team in kill efficiency, with 5-foot-11 senior Kelsea McWilsonnot far behind.

Following girls volleyball tra-dition, the Lady Eagles gatherand celebrate after each pointand are particularly vocal after akill.

“We just scream really loud,”Bailey said. “Youhave to talka lotmore in volleyball than in a lot ofother sports.”

Added sophomore Krimmer,“I’m the loudest!”

While the upcoming matchwith Purcell Marian is non-league, it’s still a big game be-cause of the elementary schoolconnection.

“It’s more of a rivalry due toour friendships,” Bailey said. “Alotofpeople leaveNativity insev-enth grade to come to Walnut.Themajority thatdon’t, go toPur-cell.”

Among those at Purcell Mar-ian is Bailey’s best friend, juniorhitterGinaDickerson. Senior hit-ter Laura Burns and sophomoresCourtney Lamb, Katie Tobin and

KyndalWilsonarealsopartof thepack from Pleasant Ridge.

“Webeat them twoyears ago,”Bailey said. “They’re a goodteam. Their coach was here lastyear. I thinkhechangedtheirpro-gram a lot.”

Travis Leonard inherited ateam that won 19 games a yearago at Purcell Marian.

Graduation hit the Lady Cava-liers hard.

“I think they lost eight or nineseniors last year,” Leonard said.“All I heard was, ‘You’re not go-ing to have much.’ I came in andthey worked pretty tough allsummer and they’ve continuedthat work during the season.They’re fighting, they’re grind-ing and so far we’re happy withit.”

Purcell Marian is battlingRoger Bacon for second place inthe Girls Greater CincinnatiLeague-GreyCentral division. Atpresstime, they’ve had a winning

record all season.Leonard’s best offensive play-

ers are 6-foot-1 senior middleblockerEmilyJohnston, 5-foot-10outside hitter Amy Suer and 5-foot-2 setter Emily Schultheis.

After just one loss in August,Purcell Marian was back andforth in September, with thehopes of getting it all together inOctober.

“We’re planning on it,” Leon-ard said. “They’re asking aboutHalloween parties. I hope to stillbe playing (around) Halloween.”

His return to Walnut Hills issandwiched between toughleague games with McNicholasOct. 4 and Roger Bacon Oct. 9.

“I’m looking forward to it,”Leonardsaid. “There’sbeensomechatter back and forth. I thinkboth of our teams are improvingand I look forward to seeing thegirls that I had last year.”

The varsity contest is set for11:30 a.m. Oct. 6.

A publication of

Last week’s questionDo you think the Federal Re-

serve’sdecision tobuy$40billiona month in mortgage-backed se-curities to cut borrowing costsfor home buyers and other bor-rowers, andpledgetokeepshort-term rates near zero until at leastmid-2015 will help the economy?Why or why not?

“The Fed's decisions to buymortgaged-backed securitiesand to keep interest rates low forat least another three years willprovideminimal help to the econ-omy in the short run and will addgreatly to our nation's financialwoes in the long run.

“With respect to the first pol-icy, do people realize that the Fedis in effect printingmoney to buythose mortgages? This will justadd to the already massive andunprecedented increase in thesupply of money, with no com-mensurate increase in the need

for it.“In the past, in other places

and at other times, this practicehas eventually led to inflation –sometimes evenhyper-inflation –which can devastate the purchas-ing power of savers and inves-tors, including many retirees.

“The purchases drive theprice of mortgage securities up,which forces the rates on mort-gages down. Mortgage rates arealready at rock bottom, so how isthis going to entice more homesales?

“Worse, the Fed has said theywill keep buying those securitiesinwhateveramountandforwhat-ever time period they feel is war-ranted. This is a little like an-nouncing an ‘open bar’ that willnever close. So, while we mighthave fun for a few hours, we'llwake up with a bad hangover.

“Keeping interest rates lowalso penalizes the saver and in-vestor while it benefits the bor-

rower. So, if you have been frugaland saved your money the Fed isgoing to artificially keep interestrates – your return – low, whichbenefits the personwho has beena spendthrift and a borrower bykeeping his interest costs low.

“This is indeed a strange newworld that we live in.”

T.H.

“No, I do not think the FederalReserve's decision to buy $40 bil-lion a month in mortgage-backedsecurities is a good idea. It is an-other example of government in-trusion where it has no businessinterfering.

“All of us know of friends andneighbors who have lost theirhomes because they could notpay their mortgages. The solu-tion isnot tohave thegovernmentstep in and rescue the lenders ofmortgages to people who cannotafford them.

“The solution is to create amore friendly climate for busi-nesses by eliminating many ofthe regulations imposed by thegovernment on businesses,which have discouraged the hir-ing of US workers causing mas-sive unemployment.

“Businesses freed from ex-cess regulations would be in amuch better position to hire em-ployees. If you don't believe it,call Cincinnati Bell for customerservice some time. What state is'Manila' in?”

Bill B.

“Absolutely not. Our govern-ment is wasting tax dollars, andthe economy won't recover untilthe Fed stops printing money.

“Honestly? GM & Chryslerdidn't need ‘US’ to bail themout ...they would have made it throughthe existing court system.

“All the printed money is go-ing to the 1 percent folks, andNONE of them has changed athing about how they run theirfirms because of the zillions 'WE'gave them. To give $40 million amonth to Wall Street is outra-geous!”

Certain members ofCincinnati City Councilhave spent a lot time andenergy lately trying toconvince Cincinnatiansthat City Council’s termlimits should be increasedfrom two to four years.

The merits, they say,are that incumbent candi-dates could focus on coun-cil work instead of cam-paigning every other year.They also point out that Cleve-land and Columbus city councilseach have four year terms.

I respectfully disagree. Elect-ed officials, above all others,need to be held accountable for

their actions and theirwords.

Good, effectivecouncil members tendto get re-elected. Badones tend to get shownthe door.

In my opinion, Cin-cinnatians are a prettygood judge of the goodones and the bad ones.Sure, we make mistakessometimes, but now we

only have to wait two years tocorrect those mistakes. In certaincircumstances, it would feelinsufferable to have to wait fouryears to make this correction.

I also don’t see the detriment

to having City Council campaignevery two years. I actually viewit as a positive. It forces councilmembers to get into the neigh-borhoods and streets, listen towhat is important to everydayCincinnatians, and put their fin-ger on the pulse of the city.

And as for Cleveland andColumbus being the benchmarkson this issue, I’ll paraphrase oneof my favorite SamWyche (for-mer Bengals head coach) quotes,“We don’t live in Cleveland! Welive in Cincinnati!”

One of these days I’mgoing to write a cookbookincluding “Hall of Fame”recipes frommy column.When I think of all therecipes shared across ourcommunity of readers andthe interest generated bythem, I know that foodshared with family andfriends is not only nurtur-ing but makes memoriesand traditions. That’s whyevery year I get requestsfor Nell Wilson’s pickledpeppers. Nell, a Masonreader, is the mother ofour garden guru, RonWilson, and her pickledpeppers are the best. I’veadapted the recipe overthe years, but the originalpremise comes from Nell.Peppers are in season soby making your own, youare saving lots of moneyplus you know exactlywhat’s in them.

Nell Wilson’sfamous hot pickledpeppers

I make this with a mix-ture of mostly hot pep-pers. I usually don’t add 2cups sugar; if I use any atall, I’ll start out with half acup, taste the brine and gofrom there. You’ll getenough brine for 5-6 pintsor about 3 quarts peppers.

Peppers:

2 pounds or so, prepared asdirected below

Brine:

Bring toa boil, thenlower to asimmer for5 minutes.

6 cups clearor cidervinegar, 5percentacidity

2 cups water

Optional ingredients:

Sugar to taste: up to 2 cupsSalt: up to 2 tablespoons, ifyou want

1 garlic clove for each jar1 bay leaf for each jar1 grape leaf for each jar (thissupposed tomake themextra crunchy)

Bring brine to a boil.Let simmer 5 minutes orso.

Prepare peppers:Use rubber gloves.Leave peppers whole

with a slit down the centerif you like, or slice. Placepeppers in hot jars, pack-ing tightly. Pour simmer-ing brine over, coveringpeppers. Add optionalingredients. Wipe rimswith clean wet cloth. Putlids and seals on. Profes-sionally, I’ll tell you toprocess pints 10 minutesor quarts 15 minutes in aboiling water bath aftersealing. That is the recom-mended safe method forcanning. (Check out myblog for directions.) I don’tprocess mine, but I steril-ize the jars and lids, andkeep them in boiling wateruntil they’re filled. I havenever had a problem, butagain, the recommendedway to preserve these is ina boiling water bath. Jarswill seal on their own –you’ll hear little “pings” asthe seal completes. Any

that don’t seal, just put inrefrigerator. Chill in re-frigerator before serving.

Tip from Rita’s kitchen• The membrane that

the seeds are attached tois the hottest part of thepepper.

• The lids are a two-parter: a flat seal and aring. The rings are reus-able, but the seals are not.

• See Rita make these:video for pickling pepperson www.abouteating.com.

• Peppers are good foryour eyes and heart,among other things.

Spicy bistro oystercrackers for soups

With autumn comeschilly days and the aromaof a pot of soup cooking isso comforting. Take soupto a whole new level withthese tasty crackers. I caneat these as a snack! Youcan add more garlic pow-der, oregano and chilipowder. Crush these for anunusual topping for macand cheese, etc.

1 24 oz. box oyster crackers¾ cup canola or olive oil1 envelope Taco seasoning½ teaspoon each garlicpowder, Italian seasoningor oregano, chili powder

Preheat oven to 350.Put crackers in big bowl.Whisk oil and seasoningstogether. Taste and addmore seasoning if you like.Sometimes I’ll add moregarlic powder. Pour overcrackers and toss to mixwell. Pour onto cookiesheets in single layers.Bake 15-20 minutes, stir-ring once, until goldenbrown. Cool and store,covered, at room temper-ature.

Your NewPuppysupervisorCassandraWarner takescare of one ofthe manypuppies ondisplay at theColumbiaTownship petshop that dealssolely withdogs and dogaccessories. ROB

DOWDY/ THE

COMMUNITY PRESS

Your New Puppy isn'tthe typical pet store, justask owner Mark Johnson.

The business, located at7205 Wooster Pike, Colum-bia Township, deals exclu-sively in dogs and dog ac-cessories.

Johnson, who bred dogsfor many years beforeopening the local store,said Your New Puppy onlysells canines bred by trust-ed private dog breeders.He said he's never dealtwith the "puppy mills" thatsome larger pet stores useto find dogs.

"It's really the only wayto guarantee the geneticsand health of the dog,"Johnson said.

While selling puppies isYourNewPuppy's primaryfocus, it also offers basicdog supplies, which in-cludes leashes, collars,cages, clothing and food.

Johnson said all fooditems sold in his stores areall natural.

He said Your New Pup-py has no intention of be-coming a "big box store,"but instead wants to offerhealthy dogs and qualityaccessories to all dog own-ers and potential dog own-ers.

"That is something quiteunique to us," Johnson said.

The business also has alocation in Liberty Town-ship. Johnson said whilethe two stores are onlyabout 30 minutes apart,they are very differentfrom each other.

"It might as well be aseparate state," he said.

Johnson said while theLiberty location thrives on

referrals from previouscustomers, the ColumbiaTownship location is stillgrowing in that regard.

"It takes time to build,"he said.
