BRIEFLY

After more than a yearof discussions, AndersonTownship has pickedDukeEnergyRetail as thesupplier for the town-ship’selectricityaggrega-tion program.

Assistant Administra-tor Suzanne Parker spentmonths gathering quotesfrom energy suppliersand analyzingwhich com-pany would have the bestoption for the most town-ship residents.

Anderson’s aggrega-tion plan is an “opt-in”program. That means thetownship would contractwith Duke Energy Retailand residents or business-

es could choose to join theprogram or not. There is

no auto-matic en-rollment,and resi-dents canpick fromdifferentoptions andenrollmentlengths of-fered by

Duke.TrusteeKevinO’Brien,

whose last day in officewas Dec. 31, noted thatAEP’s electricity pricewas lower thanDuke’s fora 12-month contract, andthat could be better forresidents who wanted totry the aggregation pro-gram for a shorter term.

Trustee Russ Jacksonsaid the price differenceis miniscule – two-thou-sandths of a cent – andDuke offers stability anda lower 24-month price.Throughout these discus-sions, Jackson has raisedconcerns that a termina-tion fee could wipe outany potential savings forresidents.

For Duke Energy,there would be a one-time$25 termination fee, andParker said they couldstill negotiate that beforesigning a contract.

Residents should beable to begin signing upfor the aggregation pro-gram in January.

ANDERSON TWP. — Afternearly twodecades of attendingtheir children’s NCAA sportingevents, it is hard to believe thatIvarandJuliaNorwellhave justone more game to attend.

Andrew Norwell, the young-est of the Norwell children, willplay his final collegiate gameFriday, Jan. 3, starting at leftguard in the Discover OrangeBowl for the Ohio State Buck-eyes.

The three-year starter andtwo-time first team all-Big Tenselection has enjoyed the sup-port of his family, who has beenthere every step of the way asthe 2010 Anderson High Schoolgraduate developed into one ofthe nation’s best offensive line-men.

“Sports have always been away for our family to bond,”said Ingrid Browning, the el-dest of Ivar and Julia’s sevenchildren. “We have had a blastwatching all the boys excel in

their respective sports and inlife. We are very proud of alltheir accomplishments.”

Andrew’s athletic endeavorsbegan in the familydrivewayonBethany Lane. As a toddler thesize of a kindergartner, hewould put up jump shots in be-tween basketball games be-tween his older brothers andtheir friends. All three brothers- Adam, Chris and Andrew -honed their skills at Summit El-ementary, then at AndersonHigh School. Adam went on tostar in basketball at NorthernKentuckyUniversity from1997to 2001 and Chris started at de-fensive line for the Universityof Illinois from 2004 to 2007.Thepathwas paved forAndrewto continue his athletic careerand education at the next level.

“Themost important thing isthat he’s getting his education,”Ivar said. “He’s trainedall ofhislife for this opportunity.”

Therewerestill bumps in thepath. A leg injury cut short hissenior season at Anderson. Hehas had three head coaches in

his four years at Ohio State.Weathering those unexpectedcircumstances has helped himmature.

“Being able to handle coach-ingchangesandhandleadversi-ty helpedme grow as a person,”said Andrew. “On the field, I’velearned that you always need togo out there like it’s your lastgame. You need to always beprepared and that starts in thefilm room and in the weightroom.”

“When you get to college, theguysyouplayagainstare justasgood or better. You’re not thebiggest guy on the field any-more.”

Norwell’s leadership by ex-ample helped the team bounceback from a disappointing 2011season. Under new head coachUrban Meyer, the Buckeyeswon 24 straight games beforefalling to Michigan State in theBig Ten title game on Dec. 7.

“I knew we would bounceback once Urban was hired be-cause he’s a great coach, but Ididn’t expect we’d go on a 24-

gamewin streak like that,” saidAndrew. “It’s been a pretty un-believable ride.”

The Norwell clan will be outin full force in South Beachwhen the Buckeyes take on

Clemson on Jan. 3. Traveling toBig Ten cities and bowl gamesfor most of this century has al-lowed the family to get together

To ponder another side ofthe American Civil Warthrough some unique, local art,go visit the Lloyd Library’s“Wounded Home” exhibit.

Seven artists researchedthe library’s holdings of post-war medical encyclopediasand other sources to explainthe wounds of battle with 12original works.

“The Last Supper CivilWar,” a gripping two-dimen-sional presentation by Cincin-nati artist and UC physicianSaad Ghosn is modeled afterLeonardo da Vinci’s “The LastSupper.” Replacing JesusChrist in the middle position isan angelic Abraham Lincolnencircled in a halo of righ-teousness.

An array of non-notablewounded figures flank theircommander. Union and Con-federate flags adorn the bor-der of this photomontage. T

he table that would haveotherwise contained bread andwine is strewn with weaponry.The foreground before Lincolnand his disciples are black andwhite photos of wounded thatlay on the battlefield.

“No war is ever as cleanand simple as its principlesmay seem,” Ghosn says of hisinterpretation of war in gener-al and this conflict in partic-ular.

“Even the Civil War with itsnoble outcome, had a veryhigh cost and could have beenavoided.”

He has an additional printand a three-dimensional pres-entation that speaks to thebloody death toll.

Another artist examines anunconventional wound, the oneleft by the cotton industrybefore it collided with aboli-tion. With “Ode to Cotton”Celene Hawkins reminds how

the plantation South’s chiefsource of wealth was built on

the backs ofslaves.

At first asubtle piece,only because ithangs in theform of achandelier, itcomes to lifewhen one no-tices the pains-taking detailthe artistforged into it.

“I found that the entirehistoric situation [the antebel-lum cotton economy] was anodd blend of myth and reality,”Hawkins told me, “A smallpopulation benefitting fromthe masses of another.”

She researched the stats,specs, and sheer size of theindustry, as well as Victorianlighting fixtures. This one, amix of brass, copper, andbronze, includes in detail theactors of the cotton South: theplant in blown glass that en-cases four lights, the boll wee-vil, and a sacrificed sheep.

Additional pieces bringhome the severity and chal-lenges of wounded life fordoctors, wives, and battlefieldvictims.

Kate Kern has placed im-ages of bullet entrances andexits onto upholstery and fash-ioned it to a period settee, ala“Our Nation Mourns: WoundedSettee.”

Jenny Fine has drawn skindiseases and replicatedwounds from the era onto heroriginal black and white pho-tos.

The exhibit is thought-pro-voking. It avoids the typicalhistorical explanations, battle-field summaries, and insteadelicits concern for the damage,

the post-war struggles of sur-vivors and widows.

As much as the armchairhistorian or art aficionadomight know about the CivilWar, most have not delved intothe conflict’s medical toll thatcomes out in these presenta-tions, nor have we consideredat length the personal anguishof the wounded.

Many of the pieces are forsale. The exhibit runs throughJan. 20.

Last week’s questionShould the U.S. adopt an ad-

visory panel’s recommenda-tions to end the government’ssystematic collection of logs ofall Americans’ cellular phonecalls and require those to bekept in private hands “for que-ries and data mining” only bycourt order? Why or why not?

“We are definitely in an1984 epic realty show. Unfor-tunately, it is not a 'show' butthe central government intru-sion into our lives.

“The recent U.S. DistrictCourt opinionwas on themon-ey.Erodingourprivate lives isunacceptable. This startedwhen9/11caughtmostofusbysurprise. Many documentshave shown that the presentwholesale spying on citizenswouldnothaveprevented thattragedy.

“Secret courts whiteoutpublic information is adangerto the Constitution. Oneshould read that document tounderstand the many waysthat government agencies aretwisting it.”

W.B.

“Yes, the US should proba-bly adopt the recommenda-tion,but thepresidenthassaidthere will be a decision madeaboutmuch of this in January.In the post-911 world manyparts of our freedom ofspeech have been curtailed.

“The real question is howmuch freedom are we willingto sacrifice in order to feelsafer from terrorism occur-ring on our soil? And if youhave a problem with that sac-rifice of freedom, don't use acell phone.”

“I believe TimeMagazine'schoice of Pope Francis is anexcellent one! What strikesme about the pope is his sim-plicity and his urging all of usto feed the poor throughoutthe world and to strive forworld peace. Another notica-ble trait is his always smilingface and never being afraid tospread the Gospel of JesusChrist.

“What a great example heis of a disciple of our Lord. Ifwe all followed his lead, therewould be far less problems intheworldand inourowncoun-try!”

At the start of eachnew year with you, Ilike to talk about foodtrends. Locally sourcedcontinues to be a bigfactor, along with home-made biscuits instead ofbuns and bread forsandwiches. Anothertrend is healthier kidsmeals: yogurt, apple-sauce and baked friesfor fried.

Gluten-free (no sur-prise) items will beabundant in restaurantsand at the grocery.

Chefs will use nuts ascoating for poultry andfish instead of flour.

Veggies galore, espe-cially cauliflower, willbe cooked simply orwith flavorful herbs andspices as mains andsides.

Heirloom beans andpeanuts are “in” and areeasily grown. Peanutshide under the groundand kids love to harvestthese.

Rice is big this year.You’ll see a dizzyingvariety, from instant tobrown to the new dar-ling of the food world:Carolina Gold. This isthe grandfather of long-grain rice here and,depending upon the wayit’s cooked, can be madeinto fluffy rice orcreamy risotto.

Tea is here to stay.Get out mom’s tea setand enjoy a relaxingand healthy cup of tea.Tea contains polyphe-nols, antioxidants thatare good for our heart,teeth, eyes and generalgood health.

As far as wild ed-ibles, I’m right on top ofit. I’ve made pine needletea (high in vitamins Aand C) for years andnow it’s hit the big time.It has a minty, pineyflavor. Look for groundpine needle tea at healthfood stores.

Ditto for sumac lem-onade. We have sumactrees (not the poisonsumac!) growing alongour old country roadand in late August theybear a beautiful, cone-shaped red fruit perfectfor tart, healthy lemon-ade. A caution here:Always make a positiveidentification whenpicking wild edibles.There are many non-edible look-a-likes outthere.

Easy Southern“light” biscuits

Try a Southern flourlike White Lily, whichhas a lower gluten/pro-tein content than North-ern flours and producesa lighter textured bis-cuit.

2 cups self-rising flour1⁄4 cup shortening2⁄3 to 3⁄4 cup buttermilkMelted butter

Preheat oven to 475degrees. Spray bakingsheet. Spoon flour intomeasuring cup and lev-el off. Cut in shorteninguntil mixture resemblescoarse crumbs. With afork, blend in enoughmilk until dough leavessides of bowl. Knead acouple times on lightlyfloured surface and roll1⁄2 inch thick, cuttingwith biscuit cutter orglass. Place on bakingsheet, one inch apart.Bake 8-10 minutes oruntil golden. Brush withmelted butter.

Thieves have figuredout a new way to stealyour money and itdoesn’t involve sendingyou bad checks.

Once again they preyon people who can leastafford to lose money:those seeking a loan.

Krystal, I’ll just useher first name, wroteabout her mother’s needfor a loan while out ofwork following surgery.She turned to the In-ternet and found lots ofwebsites offering loans.After applying at one ofthem, she received a callsaying she was approvedfor the $2,000 she wasrequesting.

But first, she wastold, she had to proveshe could cover her firstloan payment. She toldthe lender she wouldn’t

send himmoneybeforegetting thefunds.

“Heanswered,‘No, ofcourse not.We justneed toverify

you’ll be able to makethe payment,’” Krystalwrote.

Krystal says she wasinstructed to go a localdrug store, get a VanillaCard and load it with$150 so they could verifythe funds.

“He then had mymother give him theinformation off the cardso he could verify thefunds. He told her ev-erything was great and

that he needed to placeher on hold so he couldgo ahead and finalize thetransaction. He cameback on the line and saidthat, due to her credit,would she be able toverify a second month’spayment for another$150 on the VanillaCard? She told him,‘No,’” Krystal wrote.

At this point Krystalsays she and her motherwere suspicious, beganresearching the cardand discovered the so-called lender was buyingtime so he could pull thefunds off the VanillaReload Card. By thetime they began tryingto download the fundsfrom the card them-selves, the “lender” hadalready taken all themoney.

They called the localpolice who had themcontact the Vanilla Net-work to see if they couldlearn where the moneyfrom the card was re-leased. She was told ithad been placed into theaccount of a pre-paiddebit card so the moneycould now be taken andused anywhere without atrace.

“All said and donethis scam has me out ofpocket over $170,” Krys-tal wrote.

She’s not alone, I re-ceived a letter from aHarrison area man whoalso applied for an on-line loan and was sent tothe store to buy a GreenDot Money Pack. Heloaded $375 on the cardand didn’t realize it wasa scam until they gotanother $282 from him.

The Federal TradeCommission says legiti-mate lenders never“guarantee” or sayyou’re likely to get aloan or a credit cardeven before you apply –especially if you havebad credit, no credit or abankruptcy.

Bottom line, bewareof these newmethodsused to steal your mon-ey. Remember, onlinelending offers are oftenjust scams and a quickway to lose your money.
