MIAMITWP— .Officialsreimbursed Miami Town-ship employees hundredsof dollars more than theyshould have for gym
member-ships since2009, an in-ternalauditrevealed.
Thetownshipreim-bursed fiveemployeesa total of
$572.82 more than theyshould have during a five-year period.
All five employees re-cently paid that moneyback, according to a pressrelease from the town-ship.
“The audit did not findany concerted effort byemployees tomakeaprof-it off the physical fitnessprogram,” the releasestates.
Officials looked backfive years for the audit,which was prompted by aCommunity Pressinvestigation that re-vealed at least two em-ployees were reimbursed
more thanwhat they actu-ally paid for their gymmembership.
Prior to the Communi-ty Press investigation,Township AdministratorLarry Fronk said he wasconfident no employeeswere abusing the pro-gram.
The township main-tained that position afterthe audit, but admittedemployees were reim-bursed more than theyshould have been.
In 2013, the townshipoverpaid its employees atotal of $58.46.
“In one case, the over-payment was the result ofa swipe card misread atthefitnessclub. Intheoth-er two cases, it was a con-tract rate issue,” the re-lease states.
Designed to promote ahealthy lifestyle for em-ployees, the fitness pro-gram came under scruti-ny after possible misusewas discussed at a De-cember budget meeting.
Whenknowledgeof thediscussion became pub-lic, Fronk wrote a guestcolumn for the Communi-ty Press defending theprogram.
“Contrary to the pub-
lished article (in the Dec.25 Milford-Miami Adver-tiser) Miami Townshipemployees have not, andcannot make a profit ontheir gymmemberships,”Fronk wrote in the col-umn.
However, emails be-
tween Fronk, Police ChiefSue Madsen and FireChief Steve Kelly Jan. 9show the township didn’tknow what gym at leasttwo employees attended.
“I need to know withwhat gym Sgt. (Ted)Swain has a membership.
It is not with the paper-work in the fiscal office,”Fronkwrote in an email toMadsen Jan. 9.
Fronk sent an identicalemail on the same day toKelly asking about em-ployee Doug Tieman.
Both employees sub-
mitted attendance re-ports showing dates theyworked out, but not whichfacility they attended.
Furthermore, town-ship officials didn’t havegym contracts for 23 outof 25 employees reim-bursed for working out in2012 and 2013 until con-ducting the audit.
That’s because the pro-gram’s policy requires anattendance report gener-ated by the gym, but notmuch else.
Employees do not haveto record how long theywork out or what timethey check in to the gym.
That could changesoon.
Fronk was expected toprepare an amendment tothe policy, which heplannedtosubmit to trust-ees at their Feb. 10 worksession, conducted afterPress deadline.
“The proposed amend-mentwill correct any per-ceived deficiencies in theadministration of the pro-gram,” the release states.
Thepolicyhasnotbeenrevised since 2003. In to-tal, the townshiphasreim-bursed employees$22,567 for fitness clubmemberships since 2009.

MILFORD—The eyes ofmotorists steering theirway down Main Streetprobably won’t be drawnto a closed deli and shut-tered gas station.
If they do look, allthey’ll see are signs false-ly advertising sand-wiches, icecreamandcig-arettes in an empty build-ingnext toabigbluecano-py sheltering gas pumpslong gone dry.
Milford city leaders,
however, can envision adevelopment of, say, acommercial/residentialmix to recoup the$225,000 the city spentlast November to buy theproperties and jump-starta little economic develop-ment there.
That’s less than whatthe former owner paid in2007: $339,000.
The building that lasthoused a deli on the firstfloor – and three apart-ments on the second – is at308 Main St. and the ad-joining property that last
housed a Marathon gasstation and auto repairshop is at 300 Main St.
Milford City ManagerJeff Wright said bothbuildings have been va-cant since about Novem-ber 2012.
“The city thinks that itwould be beneficial forsome type of retail to oc-cupy the first floor of (theformer deli) and for ei-ther office or residentialuse to occupy the secondfloor,” Wright said.
The property is zonedfor that kindofmixeduse.
“The city is having amarket study done by areal-estate firm to deter-mine the types of useswith which Milford is un-derserved,” Wright said.
Wright said Milford isdeveloping a so-called“request for proposalsand qualifications pack-et” for the former deli.
“City council’s goal isto use the (request forproposals and qualifica-tions packet) to evaluateinterested parties to de-

MILFORD— Students inthe Milford ExemptedVillage School Districtwho thought they couldescape winter without ex-tra school can think again.
As of Tuesday, theschool district had closedseventimesbecauseofse-vere weather.
The district’s Board ofEducation eliminatedearly release days for therest of the school year inorder to make up some ofthat lost time.
The followingdayswillnow become full schooldays:
» Friday, Feb. 7» Friday, March 21» Friday, April 11» Friday, May 9Ohio Gov. John Kasich
has asked the state legis-lature for a one-time in-crease in the number ofallowable calamity daysschool districts can use.
But thatwouldn’tmakethe lost class timeany lessdamaging, according toone Board of Educationmember.
“It is important to dis-tinguish between calami-ty days and instructionaltime,” said Gary Knepp,vice president of the dis-trict’s school board.
“Children may not berequired to go to school tomake up days, but theyare still losing instruc-tional time.”
District officials re-centlyapprovedtheuseof“blizzard bags,” online as-signments students havetwo weeks to complete.
That allows officials tocancel school three extratimeswithout forcing stu-dents to make up days.The district has used bliz-zard bags twice, as ofTuesday.
While the onlineassignments were better“thannotdoinganything,”Knepp said, they couldn’treplace traditional stu-dent-teacher interaction.
“The students werelosing time and I thinktheyshouldhavethat timein the classroom,” he said.
But eliminating earlyrelease days wasn’t thedistrict’s first plan.
Officials planned to
cancel a professional de-velopment day for teach-ers Friday, Feb. 14 – origi-nally a day off for stu-dents.
Parents complained
that they scheduled col-legevisits andmadeotherplans for the long week-end.
The professional de-velopment day was not
previouslymentionedasapossiblemakeup day, saidSuperintendent Bob Far-rell in a press release.
“It almost didn’t givethem enough time forplanning. So we listenedand came up with this al-ternative idea,” Kneppsaid.
The elimination of theremaining early-releasedays, where studentsleave 90 minutes early,“will basically equal a dayof instruction,” the super-intendent said.
“This is about doingwhat is best for our stu-dents and their educa-tion,” Farrell said.
“I think this is the bestoption to give studentsmuch-needed time in theclassroom and parents anoption thatworksfor theirbusy schedules.”
Milford cancels early release days
Students from the Milford Exempted Village School Districtwill not get out of school early for the rest of the schoolyear. The district’s Board of Education eliminated the fourremaining early dismissal days to replace some of theinstructional time that’s been lost this winter. FILE ART

MILFORD — The Olympicflame burns brightly over So-chi.
A spark from that flamecould ignite a local athlete look-ing to carry the torch to Rio in2016.
While the Winter Games goon in Russia, 2009MilfordHighSchool graduate Dan Matuliswas in thepoolwith theU.S. sen-ior national men’s water poloteam competing in the VolvoCup in Hungary, a precursor tothe World Cup this summer inKazakhstan.
Matuliswas one of four first-time national team performerson the U.S. roster.
Head coach Dejan Udovicicis a first-timer with the U.S.squad, too, taking over the teaminMay 2013. But he’s no strang-er to international competition,having coached Serbia to a
bronze medal in the 2012 Lon-don Olympics.
“We are starting a new long-term program and a lot of hardwork is in front of us,”Udovicicsaid in a release. “The United
States has great potential andwewillbepreparedfor thechal-lenge ahead.”
Current Princeton HighSchool swimming coach GaryTameriscoachedMatulisatMil-
ford from a young age and sawhis potential right away.
“We always knew we had aspecial package with him,” Ta-meris said. “He came out to the(Milford Area SwimTeam) pro-gramwhenhewas 7 or 8 andwehad him all the way through.”
Matulis ledMilford to a statetitle in 2008 and was an OhioCup all-tournament team selec-tion three times from 2007 to2009. He set the school recordfor single-season goals (176)and assists (85), while also com-ing up with 85 steals.
Hewent to LongBeach StateUniversity in California, wherehe played three seasons beforeinjuries forced him to redshirtas a senior. He scored 69 goalsfor the 49ers as a junior.
“Coming out of Ohio, theMidwest, that’s very unusual tobe playing on that level,” Tame-ris said. “But when you’re al-most 7 feet tall and left handed,that opens some doors for you.
And he’s legitimately talentedaside from his physical gifts.
“I knowwhen he first got out(to Long Beach State), theywere like ‘What’s aMidwestguydoing out here playing at thislevel.’ Their water polo outthere is like football in Cincin-nati. It’s the hotbed and every-body plays. But he’s proved hebelongs.”
Tameris is proud of his for-mer pupil.
“I’ve had swimmers whohave competed in the Olympictrials, but this is the highest in-dividual inwater polo for sure,”he said. “It’s so hard to get tothat level. He’s hopefully set-ting the bar to make that Olym-pic team in 2016, which is rightaround the corner.
“He’s a tremendous youngman. Whenever he’s in town helooks me up and we talk. Heleads by example and he’s set apretty good example for waterpolo players around here.”

including CNE juniorcheerleader MackenzieMorris, who began thestreak, and Mo Cooperwho ended it by yelling,“Corndogs for everyone.”
Alex Thompson - aRocket varsity player -made the second shot inthe streak during halftime
of the girls game againstCincinnati Hills ChristianAcademyFeb. 20, bankingone in.
“I looked at my friendsand I was showing off tomy friends,” he said. “Iwas happier I got Mr.Kirk’s money than any-thing.”
Givenanopportunity toreplicate his performanceFeb. 7, Thompson went 0-for-10 with a startling sixair balls.
“I can’t explain it,” hesaid. “It’s a tough shot.”
His teammate DarianBullock fared little betterin the Feb. 7 trial, alsoshooting 0-for-10. But atleast he drew iron every
attempt.“It’s like a once-in-a-
lifetime thing,” Bullocksaid. “I’d never seen any-thing like it. You have tohavesomeskill andknowl-edge of basketball, but ittakes some luck, too.”
Kirk took a dose of hisown medicine. Another 0-for-10 with three air balls.Among his shots werethree trieswithhis back tothe basket shooting gran-ny style, which were hisbest efforts.
“It’s a freak kind ofthing,” Kirk said. “We juststarted it to get people in-volved in halftime a littlemore and it just kind ofgrew from there.
“It got exciting. Peoplewere going into Subwaythe next morning tellingAshish. We were all get-ting a kick out of it. Justone of those things.”
As if to prove the point,Kirk’s college intern Jus-tinMessinger -a2009CNEgrad now at MoreheadState - strolled out to mid-court and sank four of his10 shots from the circle.
“I want lunch,” he toldhis boss.

A6 • MILFORD-MIAMI ADVERTISER • FEBRUARY 12, 2014
Representative BradWen-strup’s guest column in theJan. 29 issue of the Communi-ty Press papers is so full ofblatant falsehoods and misun-derstandings of constitutionallaw that I cannot let it go un-answered.
It is a polemic that adheresto the standard tea party linesabout following the Constitu-tion while ignoring, as teaparty members typically do,the most aspirational state-ment in that document’s Pre-amble, “to promote the gener-al Welfare.”
The precise reason thecase involving NLRB recessappointments is before ourhighest court is because thisis not a settled point of law.Presidents have been makingsuch recess appointmentssince the founding of the re-public.
It is only in the last fewyears, since the Senate hasbegun meeting in so-calledpro-forma sessions, that thefacts have arisen allowing theplaintiff to bring the case nowbefore the Supreme Court.
In fact, thehistoricalprecedent isso long that akey issue thecourt mustdecide iswhether afindingagainst thepresidentshall be ap-plied retro-actively, po-
tentially invalidating nearlytwo centuries worth of recessappointments.
The remainder of the rep-resentative’s diatribe is eitherdisingenuous or reflects hisignorance about the function-ing of the executive branch.
Congress typically adoptsbroad policies in its laws andleaves many implementationdetails to the president,through the adoption of reg-ulations. Such regulationshave the force of law andcarry out the intent of theCongress.
The process for adoptingregulations was set out by the
Congress when it adopted theAdministrative Procedure Actnearly 70years ago. That lawincludes providing publicnotice of proposed regulationsand provides for submissionof comments.
When the president,through Secretary Sebelius,proposes changes to imple-mentation of the AffordableCare Act, no one is changingthe laws passed by Congress.Rather she is exercising theadministrative authority ex-plicitly granted to the exec-utive by Congress.
For example, regarding thedates for the guaranteed en-rollment period, section 2702of the act provides, “The Sec-retary shall promulgate reg-ulations with respect to en-rollment periods under para-graphs (1) and (2).” This givesthe secretary broad discretionin setting up these periods.
With regard to creating theexchanges, Congress hasagain give the secretary pow-er to regulate, this time insection 1311(c), “(1) IN GEN-ERAL.—The Secretary shall,
by regulation, establish crite-ria for the certification ofhealth plans as qualifiedhealth plans. Such criteriashall require that, to be certi-fied, a plan shall, at a mini-mum—…”
Rather than “tramplingupon and upending” the Con-stitution, the president andsecretary are duly executingthe laws as passed by theCongress.
It is true that Mr. Wenstrupand the rest of his RepublicanHouse colleagues have spentthe bulk of their time votingto repeal the act, when theyare not otherwise engagedtrying to default on the debt,shut down the government,and ignore the plight of thechronically unemployed.
Fortunately for those of uswho truly believe that impor-tant clause from the Preambleis so important, their effortshave failed thus far.

Feb. 5 questionTheBengalshaveaskedHam-
ilton County for control of thenaming rights to Paul BrownStadium. Should the countyturn over the naming rights?Why or why not? What nameswouldyousuggest for thestadi-um?
“My simple answer is no,but I would urge both sides tonegotiate. I can understandthat naming rights are a valu-ableassetandsince thecountyowns those rights they shouldnot just give them away.
On the other hand, I can ap-preciate theBengals notwant-ing to play in a stadium thatmight bear a name not consis-tent with their team or theNFL. Personally I like the cur-rent name, Paul Brown Stadi-um, and wish that sign on thestadium was more prominentthan the current one.”

ELECTEDOFFICIALS
Just after the 2012 election,theWhiteHouse “We-The-Peo-ple” website got more than63,000 signatures for a recountinOhio. FoxNewsclaimed thatin one Ohio county PresidentObama received106,258 votes-...but therewere only 98,213 el-igible voters.
There was another claimthat in 21 districts in WoodCounty, Ohio, Obama received100 percent of the votes, whileGOP inspectors were illegallyremoved from their polling lo-cations. Fox News went wild.
In September 2013, after ayear’s investigation JohnHusted appeared on Fox &Friends noting that his officediscovered that contrary toDemocratic claims, there wasNO voter suppression. On theotherhandthestate’sboardsofelections identifiedandreport-ed 625 voting irregularities. Ofthese, 135 were referred to thestate, for legal action.
Recently theEnquirerrevis-
ited Ohio vot-ing which, inturn, generat-ed letters fromreaders point-ing out thatmany of thelevy issuespassedbyverynarrow mar-gins and voterfraud wouldreally matter
in those instances.Presumably illegal aliens
could sway a levy by illegallyvoting for their kids to get afree ride to school, a free lunchand possibly a free fraudulentbreakfast thrown in!
The Enquirer noted thattherewere4,960,350votescastin 2012. Husted’s statisticsshow that .01 percent of thevotescastwerepossibly fraud-ulent. Of course this is lowerthan the original claim, but afraudulent vote is fraud none-theless. And I am here to say
that voter fraud inOhio is aliveand well.
The Legislature is workinghard on voter fraud. The billsthe Enquirer summarizedshow that people without carsor adequate public transporta-tion, or with jobs that don’t al-low time off will have a hardertime voting. Those with carsand the ability to get time offwill have no problems.
But the real vote fraud willnot be touched by those bills –they will only discourage poorpeople and minorities fromvoting for Democrats.
In 2012, thevote total for theOhio Legislature House was2,525,660 for the Democratsand 2,434,689 for the Republi-cans; a total of 4,960,350 votescast (disregarding votes forother-party candidates).
The raw total was 50.9 per-cent for the Democrats, and49.1 percent for the Republi-cans; amajoritywhere democ-racy is respected – a starting
point in Ohio.The Rs wound up with 60
seats, and the Ds with 39.ClearlyaDvotewasworth lessthan an R vote. Every D voteworked out in reality as 0.76 ofa vote, whereas every R voteworked out as 1.24 votes.
Thus in Ohio every four Re-publican votes equaled sixDemocratvotes.Notunlike thethree-fifth’s compromise inthe original Constitution.
A Civil War ended that for-mula – a civil war that theTPerswouldundoubtedlyhaveOhio switch sides on if it wereheld today.
The Supreme Court re-quired one man one vote inReynolds v. Sims, in 1964. Re-publicansmay come around toone-man-one-vote some day,but until then legalized cheat-ing works just fine.

While many older adultsare well organized and per-fectly independent, othersmay struggle a little moreduring winter depending ontheir age and overall health.
And, while most of us arefortunate enough to havefriends and family livingclose or within a phone call oremail’s distance who regular-ly check on our well-being,many older adults who are nolonger able to get out havebecome isolated from neigh-bors and friends.
During the recent blast offrigid air and plummetingtemperatures, many arearesidents were without elec-tricity and, therefore, withoutheat.
Clermont Senior Servicescase managers and other staffspent the coldest of those
days callingthe people weserve to as-sure theirsafety, but youcan also doyour part tohelp protectelderly neigh-bors andfriends toensure thatthey have theresources
they need to stay safe andhealthy.
Older adults are especiallyvulnerable to hypothermiabecause their bodies’ re-sponse to cold can be dimin-ished by underlying medicalconditions, such as diabetesand certain medications, in-cluding over-the-counter coldremedies.
Signs of hypothermia in-clude slowed or slurredspeech; sleepiness or confu-sion; shivering or stiffness inthe arms and legs; poor con-trol over body movements;and/or slow reactions, or aweak pulse.
Avoiding this dangeroussituation by making a habit ofchecking on an older neighboror friend will go a long way toassure his/her safety. Whenyou visit, make certain thehome is warm enough.
You can suggest that thethermostat be set to at least68 to 70 degrees. Even homeswith temperatures from 60 to65 degrees can lead to hypo-thermia in older people.
Check to make sure theheating system is working,and there are adequate meansto keep the temperature in the
home in a comfortable range.And, make sure there are
no heating devices in areas ofthe home that could pose afire risk or carbon monoxidepoisoning risk.
Make sure they can gethelp, if needed. Is there some-one identified to call for helpif needed?
Phones need to be acces-sible and in working order.Remember, cordless phoneswill not work if the powergoes out. And, if the cell is theprimary phone, make certainthat you suggest that it is keptfully charged.
All of us can make a differ-ence in making sure that ourolder neighbors and friendsare safe

February 11 will mark 70years of marriage forGeorge and Mary JaneSchnitzer. They plan tocelebrate on February 15with their children, grand-children and great-grandchildren.
Today is a bread bak-ing day. The idea actuallystarted yesterday whenmy friend Joanie Manzo,a Loveland reader,brought me a loaf ofhomemade cinnamonbread. Divine! So it gotme in the bread bakingmood. I didn’t have timefor cinnamon bread but
knew I’dhave timeto makethis easyrecipe forItalianbread. Ikept oneloaf for usand sentthe otherto Tonyand Deb-
bie, our neighbors. Withthis wicked icy weather,a warm loaf of breadwith a bowl of steamingstew is a comfortingsupper.
Italian bread forbeginners andeveryone else
I like this recipe forits simplicity. The flavorand texture is like thekind you get at a bakery.The crust is a bit crispand pale gold. I’m givingdetailed instructionshere. Check out my blogfor tips on kneading andstep-by-step photos. Ifyou want, sprinkle poppyseeds on the bread aftershaping.
1package (1⁄4 oz.) active dryyeast
2 cups warmwater (110degrees to 115 degrees)
Pinch of sugar to feed yeast1 teaspoon sugar2 teaspoons salt51⁄2 cups all-purpose flour
Stir yeast in warmwater, adding a pinch ofsugar to “feed” the yeast.It’s ready when it looksfoamy on top, a fewmin-utes. Pour into mixingbowl and add sugar, saltand 3 cups flour. Beat onmedium speed for 3 min-utes. Pour in remainingflour and mix on low toform soft dough. On verylightly floured surface,knead until smooth andelastic, about 8 minutes
or so. It may be sticky atfirst, but will get smooth,like a baby’s bottom.Place in greased bowl,turning once to greasetop. Cover and let rise inwarm place until dou-bled, about 1 hour or so.
Punch dough down.Divide in half. Shapeeach into a loaf. Thereare two ways to do this:Simply make loaf shapewith your hands about 12inches long, or roll doughinto an approximate 12-inch by 7-inch rectangle.Roll up tightly from long
side, pinch seams to sealand place seam sidedown on sprayed orparchment-lined pan.Cover and let rise untildoubled, 30-45 minutes.With sharp knife, makefour shallow slashesacross top of loaf. Bakeat preheated 400 degreesfor 20-25 minutes, oruntil golden.
Tips» Make this by hand?
Of course, and you get aworkout, too!
» Measure accurately.
Flour settles as it sits.Whisk a bit or stir beforemeasuring. Measure byspooning lightly into cupand leveling off withknife.
» Howwarm is 110-115degrees? Best to use aninstant read thermom-eter, which is inexpen-sive and accurate. Wateris just right when you putsome on your wrist andit’s warm enough for ababy to drink from a
bottle.» How to tell when
dough is doubled. Risingtime is a guide only. Usefingers to make indenta-tion about 1⁄2 inch intodough. If the indentationremains, the dough hasdoubled. For the secondrise after shaping, makea small indentation in thedough near its side. If thedent remains, the doughis ready to bake.
Good-for-you eggscramble
Adapted from an EllieKrieger recipe. Februaryis heart month, so here’sa recipe that fills the billfor health but doesn’tsacrifice flavor. I likethis stuffed into a wholewheat pita spread withmashed avocado andsprinkled with a littleFeta.
Olive oil1⁄2 cup red onion, diced2 Roma tomatoes, diced4 whole eggs4 egg whitesPalmful fresh dill, chopped,or 1 teaspoon dried leaves
Salt and pepper
Film nonstick panwith olive oil, about atablespoon. Add onionand cook a couple ofminutes until soft, thenadd tomatoes and cookanother minute. Put inbowl and set aside. Beateggs together. Pour intoskillet and cook untilalmost set, stirring fre-quently. Drain excessliquid from tomato mix-ture and stir into eggs.Stir in dill, season totaste.
Tip from Rita’skitchen
Freezing avocados:Yes, you can. JungleJim’s had them on sale soI bought a lot, mashedthe flesh, squirted withlemon juice to keep thecolor and froze it.

Howdy Folks;This winter doesn't
seem to be letting up, butsome day it will be in the80s, I will be happy whenthat happens.
We took Chester to thevets to have him neu-tered; he wasn't a veryhappy kitten. This morn-ing we could not give himanything to eat.
I said to Ruth Ann,“Can't we give him alittle something to eat?”She said no, well, I feltsorry for him, we put himin the carrier and hecried all the way up tothe vets.
The Brown Countydog warden's truck wasthere with a couple dogs
to havethem neu-tered;there wereat leastfour orfive dogsthat camein while wewere thereand a ladycame in
with two cats to be neu-tered.
A young lady thatworks there, her folksbelong to the OwensvilleHistorical Society. Thisgal is a very fine person,along with the other la-dies.
We need to have ouranimals neutered or
spayed to help controlthe burden of so manyanimals. We love our catand miss him as I writethe article, but Michellejust called and said wecan pick him up anytimeafter 3 til 5. It is lone-some without him.
While setting in theliving room, yesterday, Isaid to Ruth Ann it lookslike the Pine Tree has bigwhite blooms on it. Thatwas snow, of course, justteasing Ruth Ann.
Last Saturday, wewent to a Lions Clubmeeting at Carlisle, Ohio,with Clark andMiriam;there is a lot of work todo in the Lions Club andseveral meetings.
The free meal at theBatavia United Method-ist Church will be onSaturday, Feb. 15, from11a.m. till 1 p.m., they servea fine meal as do thefolks at the Bethel UnitedMethodist Church eachSaturday from11 a.m. till1 p.m.

cake breakfast, Feb. 22,the time is 7:30 til 10:30a.m. at the Bethel TateHigh School at the eastend of Bethel. The menuis all the pancakes youcan eat, also sausage,tater tots, milk, orangejuice and coffee.
