YOUR LIBRARY AND YOU

Don’t let that New Year’sresolution to cut the fats andsugars hold you back from en-joying the sweeter side of life.

A Chinese bakery in town,Kiss Cake, could be the ticketto delicious cakes, cookies anddesserts without excessiveguilt.

In general, Chinese bakedgoods use a lot less sugar andbutter than Western pastries.This is a key point expressedJing Gao, owner of Kiss Cakein Evendale. Gao, a Blue Ashresident, also emphasizes thather baked goods contain nopreservatives and are all natu-ral.

Gao makes everythingfrom scratch daily.

Last April this accountant-turned-baker traded in her cal-culator and cubicle for herdream – ownership of a bakery.The space in a plaza near CAMInternational Market and Si-chuan Chili seemed ideal.

Originally from China, Gaoand her family moved to theCincinnati area from Los An-geles.

Gao said that she was sur-prised at the absence of Chi-nese bakeries here in the Cin-cinnati area.

One of the biggest differ-ences between Chinese bak-eries and American is sugar.American pastries have too

much sugar, Gao said.“Asian people can’t eat too

much sugar, it’s too sweet,” shesaid smiling.

Her bakery is inviting withthe comforting smell of bakedgoods filling the air.

The display case resemblesa typical Western pastry shopwith a variety of layered cakeson display for purchase by theslice or in whole.

The cakes are artfully deco-

rated with fruits and creams.Gao also makes cakes to order.

Cookies and buns with a va-riety of fillings are neatlypackaged and displayed on ashelf.

The selection includes: but-termilk buns, butter cookies,peanut cookies, almond cook-ies, cranberry cookies, walnutcookies, coconut buns, redbean custard buns, pineappleshaped buns, Nutella bun, hotdog roll and dry pork sungrolls.

Since the restaurant is aone-woman show, the offeringis somewhat limited but clear-ly all is fresh with a focus onauthenticity.

Shop ownership is a mixedblessing for Gao. She said thatshe enjoys having her ownbusiness and baking.

“People just kind ofgravitated to him. Hewould do anything for hisfriends,” he said.

Whenever Griffeywent to games to watchhis father play, he alwaysreturned with battinggloves, cleats, wristbands.

“He’d give this stuffout to his classmates andteammates,” Nagel said.

From the outside, hesaid, it is inspiring and in-credible to considerMoeller and Griffey as aclassmate.

“When you’re a 16-, 17-,18-year-old kid in highschool, he was just anoth-er guy,” he said. “He nev-er treated anybody as ifthey were lower than hewas. Obviously his dadwas playing professionalbaseball, but he nevercame across as arrogant.”

A legend in his ownright, coach Mike Camer-on shared similar memo-ries of Griffey. During hisyears as the head varsitybaseball coach at Moeller,many athletes benefitedfrom Cameron’s coachingas evidenced by the 30who signed professionalbaseball contracts, the 10who played major leaguebaseball, and two whomade it to the Hall ofFame, Griffey and Barry

Larkin.“I’m in awe to think

that I had the opportunityto have two Hall of Fameplayers play for me up atMoeller,” he said. “I wouldlike to say that I had agreat deal to do with theirsuccess after Moeller, butthe truth is they werevery, very talented base-ball players.

“Nonetheless I’m verypleased to see that hemade the Hall of Fame.”

Cameron said thatGriffey really enjoyed be-ing around his teammatesand classmates.

“He always had a smileon his face. Kenny sup-

ported the players whenthey made good plays orgot big hits. Kenny wasone to congratulate them.In that way he fit right in,”he said. “Kenny really en-joys being around otherpeople. That’s the thing Ithink when I think of Ken-ny. Other than the base-ball, just the smile and theway he liked to cut up withthe other guys. In thatway he was very typicalof a high school kid.”

As a talented athlete,Griffey attracted a lot ofattention – especially hissenior year.

There was a lot of at-tention from the profes-sional teams. They cameto games and called Cam-eron asking about Grif-fey, his personality andhis interest in playing pro-fessional sports.

“Almost on a daily ba-sis it seems like I wouldtalk with Kenny aboutwhat was going on andwho was the latest to call,”Cameron said. “Then Irealized, maybe Kennywants to go to college. I re-member one day I said‘Kenny, I never asked you,are you interested in go-ing to college? BecauseI’m sure I could call anycollege and they wouldtake you.’

“He said, ‘coach, I wasborn to play baseball.That’s what I want to do.’ Ithought to myself ‘that’s aguy who knows wherehe’s going because God’sblessed him in that areaand his dad has been agreat role model forhim.’”

The attention neverseemed to make him ner-

vous, Cameron said. Theonly time he was evertense was when his dadcame to a game.

“I used to tell his dad,‘I’m glad you came, butcan you hide?’ His dadwould tell me, ‘that son-of-gun will know that I’mhere. Somehow, someway, he would know,’” hesaid.

Griffey is also gener-ous. Prior to the start ofhis first spring trainingcamp as a Seattle Mari-ner, Griffey treated Cam-eron and a few others totrips out to Arizona.

“That’s stuff behindthe scenes that nobodyknows and I think theremight be some moreevents like that,” Camer-on said.

There’s several thingsCameron said he reallyloves about Griffey. Onething he especially ad-mires, however, is his de-votion to his three chil-dren.

“When they were veryyoung and I would runinto Kenny he would al-ways want to show me pic-tures of them and talkabout them,” he said. “Iwould ask him a questionand he would immediate-ly turn it back to the kids.He’s always been thatway. It’s just the verything about him that Ireally respect; that hetried to be a good parentand I think he has been.”

The Montgomery FireDepartment was recentlyevaluated by the Insur-ance Services Office andrated on how well they areprepared to respond andhandle fires.

ISO confirmed the pri-or Public ProtectionsClassification of a Class 2rating for the Montgome-ry Fire Department firstawarded five years ago.

ISO uses a scale of oneto 10 for their rating sys-tem, one being the bestand 10 resulting in higherinsurance premium costs.This ISO rating for theMontgomery Fire Depart-ment equals better insur-ance rates for Montgome-ry residents and business-es.

ISO rates 48,754 firedepartments across thecountry. In 2015, 132 de-partment were ratedClass 1 and 1,060 depart-ments were rated as Class2.

Communities use theinformation provided byISO to evaluate their fireprotection services. Be-cause these evaluationsare done across the coun-try, the program is able toprovide an objective stan-dard that helps fire de-partments in planning andbudgeting for equipment,training and staffing.Communities with a bet-ter Public ProtectionClassification score allowresidents and businessesto secure lower fire insur-ance premiums.

“The City of Montgo-mery is honored to beamong the elite Ohio com-munities with excellentISO scores. I am especial-ly proud of the efforts theMontgomery Fire Depart-ment has made in theareas of fire preventionand safety. By being dili-gent stewards of safetyequipment and systems,we have not only beenable to exceed the safetyneeds of the community,but allow residents andbusinesses to also see theadded benefits of secur-ing lower insurance pre-miums,” MontgomeryFire Chief Paul Wrightsaid.

During their evalua-tion, ISO reviews severalsystems that pertain tofire safety. ISO evaluatesfire alarm and communi-cation systems, includingtelephone lines, staffingand dispatching systems.The fire department’sequipment, staffing,training and distributionof fire companies are alsoappraised. The conditionand maintenance of hy-drants are analyzed and acareful evaluation is doneto study the amount ofavailable water comparedwith the amount needed tosuppress fires.

ISO also reviews prop-erty and casualty risk in-formation for insurancecompanies. This informa-tion is used to determineappropriate fire insur-ance premiums for com-mercial and residentialproperties. ISO collectsdata on public fire protec-tion, flood risk and theadoption and enforce-ment of building codes incommunities. Communi-ties also use this informa-tion to manage and miti-gate risk.

Plans are taking shapefor the mosaic panels ofShakespeare’s “SevenAges of Man,” which havebeen lined up on thePrinceton High Schoollawn since last summer.

Kelli Reisen, a Prince-ton alumna who raisedfunds and organized thepreservation and reloca-

tion of the panels, ad-dressed the PrincetonBoard of Education, ask-ing for approval to moveforward. She will con-tinue her fundraising ef-forts to pay for the con-struction of the amphithe-ater.

Reisen, along withalumnus Greg Tully, di-rector of development forNewport, Kentucky, out-lined a plan that will incor-

porate the mosaic panelsinto an amphitheater onthe high school lawn.

The mosaic panels,which will be arranged ina staggered line, as theywere when they were partof the old Princeton HighSchool building, will bethe backdrop of the am-phitheater, which couldbe used for symphonicperformances and plays,among others, Reisensaid. The back side of theamphitheater could beused as an outdoor class-room.

Though Reisen andTully did not have a ren-dering of the plan, theydescribed a structure 90feet from the cornerwhere two wings of thehigh school meet, just be-yond where the panels

currently stand.Columns will support

the mural panels and theamphitheater will be setin a foundation. A roof willcover the structure, andlighting will showcase themosaic panels at night.

The school board unan-imously approved the pro-posal, and Reisen wasthanked for her efforts topreserve the mosaics, de-signed by Cincinnatipainter and muralist CarlZimmerman in 1958. Eachof the seven panels de-picts one of the ages: in-fant, schoolboy, lover, sol-dier, justice, old age andincapacity.

“Arts are the corner-stone of education,” Reis-en said, “and it’s impor-tant that Princeton is outthere in the forefront.”

It’s all about big ideason a smaller scale.

Indian Hill HighSchool public speakingteacher Austin Sayre hasbrought the TED FellowsProgram to the highschool, but developed it ina way that can appeal toher students.

The TED Fellows Pro-gram brings leaders andtrailblazers from aroundthe world to share ideas.

The premise of theTEDX program at IndianHill High School is thesame.

The students get to-gether to share ideas, saidSayre, a resident of Wyo-ming. “With this they getto think about real world

issues,” she said.Whereas TED, which is

an acronym for Technol-

ogy, Education and De-sign, focuses more on sci-entific disciplines, Sayrehas adapted the idea of theprogram to her publicspeaking class.

“They choose problemthat affected the commu-nity, school or world,” shesaid.

However, the studentsdon’t just pick a topic andresearch it. They oftenbase their presentationson personal experience.

Both freshmen MerrittMcMullen and KateMarrs tackled the subjectof materialism.

“We did research buthad to tell a story from ourlife and relate it to the re-search,” said McMullen,who is a resident of IndianHill.

McMullen focused on

Black Friday.“I liked coming up with

ideas to solve a problem,”she said.

Marrs, who is also aresident of Indian Hill,dealt with the subject ofmaterialism as well.

She interviewed anumber of students aboutwhy they had to have thenewest and most popular

styles.“I loved going around

collecting the data,”Marrs said, adding thatshe learned important les-sons as well.

“I should focus moreand what I need than whatI want,” she said.

Sayre enjoyed that herstudents could relate tothe various topics that

were presented.Other topics ranged

from overcoming stressand anxiety to ways of en-gaging students in mathe-matics.

Sayre, who spearhead-ed bringing the TED con-cept to Indian Hill HighSchool, said she wouldlike to get other schoolsinvolved in the future.

The “tooth fairy” de-livered a huge gift for theholidays and students inthe dental hygiene pro-gram at the University ofCincinnati Blue Ash Col-lege are the primary re-cipients.

The college received a$245,000 gift from ananonymous donor thatwill go toward new equip-ment in the Dental Hy-giene Clinic and createscholarships for deserv-ing dental hygiene stu-dents. It is one of the larg-est gifts ever provided tothe college.

“We are amazed andinspired by the enormousgenerosity of this dona-tion,” UC Blue Ash Dean

Cady Short-Thompsonsaid. “I am genuinelygrateful and thrilledabout what this fundingmeans for our studentsand faculty in our DentalHygiene Department.This is a transformative,major gift that will im-pact us positively formany years to come.”

The Dental HygieneClinic at UC Blue Ash isthe largest of its kind inOhio. It features 34 oper-atory units (each in-cludes dental chair,equipment and supplies)that dental hygiene stu-dents use to treat patientsand gain hands-on experi-ence as part of their edu-cation. The units are

more than 15 years oldand have experiencedsignificant wear and tearover time.

Along with $20,000 fornew scholarships, thefunding will go towardseveral upgrades that in-clude new ergonomicallycorrect dental chairs thatwill be more accessibleand comfortable for pa-tients. There will be new,state-of-the-art digital x-ray equipment with a 3Dupgrade that improvesthe evaluation of themouth with minimal radi-ation. Students will alsohave access to new dentalinstruments and ultra-sonic cleaners for use inthe clinic. All of the up-

grades are designed tomake sure the technologyand equipment is similarto what you find in dentistoffices across the region.

“These upgrades willdefinitely enhance thequality of education ourstudents receive,” saidCyndee Stegeman, chairof the UC Blue Ash Den-tal Hygiene Department.“We already have out-standing faculty who areleaders at the state, na-tional and internationallevels, now our studentswill be practicing on themost up-to-date equip-ment and instrumentsavailable.”

This is the second sig-nificant gift to the dentalhygiene program by theanonymous donor, or“tooth fairy,” as they arereferred to by collegeleaders. In 2013, the sameperson also donated

$100,000 to upgrade thecomputers used in theDental Hygiene Clinic tobetter match the technol-ogy and software nowused by most dentist of-fices.

“We are so grateful forthis generous donor whohas made a lasting impacton the Dental HygieneClinic at UC Blue Ash,”UC Foundation PresidentRodney Grabowski said.

Hah - remember last weekwhen I was harvesting greensfrom my window boxes? Well,

with the ther-mometer read-ing 6 degreesthis morning, Idon’t have to tellyou that I won’tbe harvestingany more greensfrom them.

Oh well, be-fore too long I’llbe thumbingthrough the seed

catalogs which arrive daily,thinking thoughts of spring.Yes, it’s a long way off, butSuper Bowl isn’t. I wanted toshare a couple of fun and yum-my recipes to make your SuperBowl party memorable.

We always have a big crowdat our house, and it’s a traditionfor me to make homemadeglazed donuts. That recipe,with photos of happy little souschefs, is on my Abouteating.com site.

Readers want to knowNatural and Dutch cocoa -

what’s the diff? Without get-ting too technical, the differ-ence is acid.

Natural cocoa powder: themore common one, is cocoathat does not have its acidstripped. It’s a light cocoa colorwith a bitter flavor.

Dutch processed/alkalized:is a darker color due to a potas-sium solution that neutralizesthe acidity. It has a mellower,less bitter flavor. How to sub-stitute in recipes: check outAbouteating.com

Guru in our backyard: Greg’s 2 ingredient buttermilkranch wings

I met Greg Grisanti, Frisch’s chef for research and development, at aveterans’ garden event last summer. We found we had many similar in-terests when it comes to food. We both like to garden and experiment withnatural foods.

Greg lives in Clermont county with his family and is a graduate of St.Xavier high. He went on to become a classically trained chef at Johnson &Wales University. Alumni include Tyler Florence and Emeril Lagasse, both ofwhom I’ve worked with, and I put Greg right up there with them, talentwise. He’s lots of fun to cook with, and humble, too. “I prefer to call myselfa good cook”, he said. His research knowledge shows in the recipes hedevelops and fine tunes for the restaurants. Like using real lard in their piesand making 80% of their items from scratch.

Greg was a guest on my cable show and he featured recipes madewith Frisch’s ingredients. I wanted party food that was easy and delish. Wewere both happy with these wings, which I’m now addicted to. I think you’llbe making them often, too. You’ll use 2 out of 3 of the wing parts. Here’smy slight adaptation.

3 dozen or so chicken wings, cut into 3’s (save small pointed wingjoint for stock)

16 oz. jar of Frisch’s buttermilk ranch dressingOptional add-ins: chipotle pepper sauce, ground cayenne, garlic

Preheat oven to 375.Place wings in a 2 gallon baggie. Pour in dressing, squeeze air out, and

seal. Gently massage bag to incorporate dressing with wings. Marinate forseveral hours in the refrigerator; overnight is best. Remove wings from bagand put in a colander to remove excess dressing. (Now I did not remove thedressing; I just poured the wings in a single layer on a baking sheet). Placewings on sprayed cookie sheet and bake 40 minutes or so, depending on thesize of the wings, until cooked through and golden brown.

Serve with Frisch’s blue cheese dressing as a dipping sauce along withcelery sticks if you like.

Baked jalapeno poppers

Perfect party food with a spicy bite. A perennial fave.

1 pound nice size jalapenos, halved and seeded

Filling:

8 oz. cream cheese1 cup shredded sharp cheddar1 cup shredded Jack cheese6 bacon strips, cooked crisp and crumbled1/2 teaspoon garlic powderSalt to tasteBreadcrumbs, regular or Panko

Preheat oven to 325. Blend everything but breadcrumbs together.Put about 2 tablespoons into each half and roll in crumbs. Place onsprayed baking pan and bake for 20 to 35 minutes. The longer you bakethem, the milder they become.

Hey! Wait a minute! Do youreally think I have the answerto this one? These missives arejust ‘opinion’ rants. We can onlyspeculate. OK, let’s take a shotat it!

Trump feels out of place,though not in the presidentialrace. He is almost a perfectcandidate with the right mix of“Saturday Night Live” shtickcommentary and street theater.Remember when he took kidsfor helicopter rides at the IowaState Fair?

Each child will rememberthat moment for the rest of hisor her life; the same way that Iremember my first airplaneride and solo flight as a pilot.Who else has made such animpression? You can hand themmoney, and they will forgetyou; but take them for an air-plane ride, putting them in alife or death situation, and ifthey land safely, they will neverforget you.

Trump is a dreamer, an en-trepreneur and a promoter:

“We can makethis nationgreat again.”This nation is“great;” how-ever, its gov-erning body isquite sick; youcould even sayit needs a doc-tor; noooo, forGod sakes, notDr. Carson!

Oh! You like Carson, really?They made a movie about him.“Gifted Hands: The Ben CarsonStory.” It’s on Netflix; it’s defi-nitely worth the watch.

So, why is Trump so suscep-tible to criticism? Let’s thinkabout it. He is a city kid of Ger-man/Scottish immigrants fromthe borough of Queens. Hisgrandfather, Friedrich Drumpf,immigrated to New York Cityfrom Germany, in 1885. Fredran several successful hotelsand restaurants during theheart of the Gold Rush, in bothWashington State and British

Columbia.Donald probably inherits

much of his talent from both ofhis paternal grandparents.Grandpa Fred died during theflu epidemic of 1918, and hiswife Elizabeth Christ Drumpf(now Trump), took over hisfledgling real estate investmentbusiness, and together, with herson Fred (Donald’s father), theycontinued the business as Eliza-beth Trump & Son. This is thecompany Donald Trump joinedin 1968, upon graduation fromWharton.

So, Trump was no billionairewhen he joined the company.He was a NYC street kid whohad graduated Wharton, andhad potential. He is in everyrespect a self-made man. Al-though he rubs elbows witheach of the rich and famous, hedoesn’t feel that he is one ofthem, even though he has moreassets. He retains the defensivevoice and attitude of a streetkid without a gang to join. He islonely, and he is frightened of

not being accepted.He believes he hasn’t the

pedigree. His relatives weren’tfrom royalty, high society, orfrom high political office. Inshort, he suffers from ancestralinferiority. Of course, therewas nothing inferior aboutanyone in his family; but hebelieves his lineage to be inferi-or to those with whom he asso-ciates.

Should Trump become presi-dent, this would make a greatWestern Goldrush movie.

A publication of

Mr. Obama, Americais not safer now

I can not believe thatPresident Obama had thenerve to claim that Amer-ica is safer now. Our livesnow are at the most risksince the Civil War andWWII.

Iran has been holdingAmericans as politicalprisoners for years. Justlast week Iranian Muslimpirates captured an Amer-ican naval vessel and tookAmerican sailors as hos-tages. Are Americans nowcowards and afraid to res-cue our military men?

On my flight this monthout West - as I have had todo on all flights for the lastseven years- for security -take off my belt, shoes,keys, coins, wallet, smartphone and , also, still beexamined with an Xraymachine .

The security needed atsports stadiums is unbe-lievably high at all sportingevents in America.

Has anyone not seen thebeheading of AmericanJames Foley, the burningalive of the Jordanian pilot,the drowning of Christiansin cages, and the radicalMuslim attacks in Paris,Germany and San Bernar-dino and throughout theMiddle East and Africa?

Within the USA, policeforces of American citieshave been demonized andneutralized against crime -and I am to feel safe ?

America is safe? No,America is on the precipiceof total destruction. We allneed to buy guns for pro-tection and to resist pos-sible radical Muslim at-tacks. While the president,with his 400 armed guards,says we are safer now.

No one is that obliviousin believing that we aresafer now. "Liar, liar pantson fire!"

I pray for a new leaderwith character and hon-esty.

LETTERS TOTHE EDITOR

Jan. 13 questionWhat changes, if any, would you

make to the primary system forchoosing presidential candidates?

“Not necessarily limited to theprimary system, rather our entireelection system, I would make thewhole thing shorter. My proposalwould state that the ‘election cy-cle’ will start no more than threemonths prior to the election. Oneweek to register as a candidate,one week to BS the public viamedia, two weeks to hold the pri-maries (all of them), two months tofurther state your case to the vot-ing public including one debateper month, one day off and thenthe election is held. One additionalrefinement to this incredibly prac-tical plan would be that politicalads would be run on one specialchannel only, 24/7. If people wantto hear all the BS they can chooseto turn on that channel for enlight-enment.

“Oh, two more terrific refine-ments that I know you will love,they are beautiful: 1) Term limits.Two terms and done, then go get areal job like the rest of us. 2) Nopensions, no continued salary forlife, no special health care pro-

gram other than those offered tocommon folks. It is called publicservice for a reason.”

M.J.F.

Jan. 6 questionWhat is the best way to handle

the Syrian refugee situation?

“The United States should notallow Syrian refugees to enter theUS at this time. Almost everydaythere are criminal activities in theUS and Europe involving Syrianrefugees. Much of such activityhappening in Europe at the pre-

sent time is not being widely re-ported. It is estimated that it coststhe FBI and Department of Home-land Security $60,000 - $70,000 toscreen each refugee and the Agen-cies state they are unable to do sosufficiently to be assured that therefugees are not terrorist risks. Itis also estimated that 90-plus per-cent of all recent refugees comingto the US are on food stamps and70 percent received cash welfareand government funded healthcare. The US can ill afford the costand terrorist threat brought aboutby the refugee situation. Our na-tional debt is unsustainable. Thereare many problems in the countrybecause of our difficult fiscal situ-ation that are not being addressed,and our law enforcement agenciesare overextended because of ter-rorist investigations, of which ref-ugees are a significant part.

“Two major responsibilities ofour elected politicians are to pro-vide for the safety/security of thepopulace and to be responsiblestewards of our tax dollars. OnNov. 17, the Ohio House of Repre-sentatives overwhelminglypassed a resolution that read inpart: ‘RESOLVED, That we, themembers of the 131st General As-

sembly of the State of Ohio urgethe President of the United Statesto prevent the resettlement of Syr-ian refugees into the State of Ohioas well as the United States ofAmerica.’ This resolution was sentto the President, the Secretary ofHomeland Security and otherFederal Government officials. Itwas a disappointment to learn thatState Rep. Tom Brinkman, whorepresents Ohio District 27, whichincludes Anderson Township, vot-ed against this resolution. He wasthe only Republican representa-tive to do so.’

J.E.D.

“The United States must take aleadership role to bring worldpowers together to establish safezone(s) within the Syrian refu-gees’ homeland providing a safehaven from enemies. Involve theUN in policing these safe zones toprotect refugees while not jeopar-dizing any American on Americansoil. This process would also makeit easy for refugees to reclaimtheir homeland when the crisisends. The U.S. must step up ourleadership role in working with allparties to find a political solutionto the Syrian War. It will require

moral leaders, with the politicalwill, working from strength to endthis war. Politics must be removedfrom the process, e.g., the ‘politicalclass’ who do not have the politicalwill to find a real solution. There isno place for the ill informed andothers that have hidden agendas,including the likes of our own cur-rent state representative fromDistrict 27, Mr. Tom Brinkman,who voted against a referendum(H.C.R. No. 31), designed to send amessage to President Obama tokeep Syrian refugees out of theUSA and Ohio. With the vast ma-jority of citizens being againstbringing Syrian refugees to Amer-ica, why does so many of the politi-cal class keep pushing forward?On the surface none of this seemsto makes sense, especially consid-ering recent reports of Syrian ref-ugees, here and abroad, being ar-rested for suspected terror activ-ity or other charges such as rapeas in Germany. Without doubt, thisis a humanitarian issue; howeveris there something far more sinis-ter. What about the money trail?Who is in line to gain from Syriansrefugees coming to America?”

CH@TROOM

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONWhat do you think of the Wis-consin Interscholastic AthleticAssociation’s decision to bancheers it deems disrespectful ortaunting toward opposingteams and athletes?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via email. Send youranswers [email protected] withCh@troom in the subject line.

I had the pleasure of attend-ing the Hamilton County Re-publican Party Executive Com-mittee meeting Jan. 7. At theend of the meeting, I was toldby someone that Joe Deters isnow my “enemy for life,” but Ididn’t start the fire, Mr. Detersdid.

I used to be a gun rightsactivist. I’m still a very strongSecond Amendment supporterand I own a gun shop in thegreater Cincinnati area. I’vealways admired Mr. Deters forbeing a strong supporter of theSecond Amendment as well. Iremember hearing a storyabout a perp who robbed ajewelry store and then ran outand the owner of the shop shotthe guy as he was runningaway. The store owner didn’tget charged with a crime.

Mr. Deters was asked at apress conference how farsomeone can run, still get shot,and the shooter not be charged.

He said, “InHamiltonCounty, prettydamn far.”

As a gunguy and some-one who car-ries a firearmon a daily basisto protect my-self and myfamily, I canrespect that.

Over the past year, however,Joe Deters has lost my respect.

I watched, cringing, duringthe press conference after theindictment of Officer Ray Tens-ing. The pandering, politicalcorrectness and posturing wasunbearable. Some of the thingshe said made my blood boil. Allthis political theater to quell thethreat of riots and to keep the“Black Lives Matter” protes-ters at bay. Mr. Deters playedjudge, jury and executionerand his words guarantee that

Tensing will never receive afair trial in Hamilton County. Itwas a really sad thing to see.

Then I was watching TV oneday last fall and a commercialfor Responsible Ohio, the mari-juana amendment, comes onand who is endorsing a mea-sure that adds a monopoly tothe Ohio Constitution? Why it’snone other than Mr. Detersonce again. More respect lost.

How can someone who con-siders himself a conservativesupport a measure such as this?

The final nail in the coffincame during the last few daysleading up to the Novemberelection. I live in SpringfieldTownship I decided to run fortownship trustee against 20-year incumbent Gwen McFar-lin, a Democrat. I was the en-dorsed Republican candidate.Imagine my surprise when Isee a postcard in my mailboxfrom my opponent that in-cludes a picture of her with

Deters, and a quote from himunder the picture saying to votefor my opponent Nov. 3.

So, back to the executivecommittee meeting. I took ahandout that outlined all thesethings, and gave one to each ofthe members of the committeeas they entered the room. Be-fore the endorsement vote, Imade a motion to have himremoved from the list of en-dorsed candidates. The motionwas seconded and about 10people voted with me.

If he doesn’t respect theendorsement process and sup-port the endorsed candidates,which is a requirement in theparty constitution, then hedoesn’t deserve to receive anendorsement .

BLUE ASH - Ursuline Acad-emy’s youth – in terms of inex-perience, not grade level – hascost the Lions on a number of oc-casions.

Of the six juniors on the ros-ter, only one (Maddie Stuhl-reyer) is used to playing signifi-cant minutes at the varsity lev-el. Senior Olivia McCloy is alsojust getting used to the pace ofplay again after not playing herjunior season.

“We always play hard,”coach Keith Starks said. “We’restill trying to get accustomed tothe pace of the varsity level. Wedon’t do the little things, either.We turn it over too much, foultoo often and don’t make asmany shots around the rim.”

Against teams such as MountNotre Dame, where the thresh-old for error is already slim,those miscues put teams at aneven greater disadvantage.

The GGCL isn’t having ayear where these players couldease into the varsity game.MND and McAuley set the pace.St. Ursula has double-digit winsand Mercy sits one game above.500.

“A lot of these kids are learn-ing on the fly,” Starks said. “Un-fortunately, our league isn’tdown. When you don’t show upand play, anybody can beatyou.”

The good news for the Lionsis that all these issues are cor-rectable.

McCloy has come back fromher year off to be second on theteam in scoring. Elle Folan,who’s had her struggles han-dling point-guard duties, is pro-gressing. Both have been im-portant for Ursuline this year.

There are still some goodthings out there for the Lions,too.

“We’ve got eight games left,”the coach said. “Hopefully, wecan finish 8-0 in that stretch.15-7 sounds a lot better than 7-7at this point.”

INDIAN HILL - Like therest of the Miami Valley Con-ference Scarlet division, Cin-cinnati Country Day is chas-ing Summit Country Day forthe divisional crown.

Last Friday, the Indians de-feated Seven Hills 42-40 inovertime on a pair of freethrows by Olivia Brown in herfirst game of the year. The winkeeps CCD two games back ofits rival.

“We just had to settle downand run our offense,” coachJohn Snell said following thewin. “A lot of the issues werewith the fact we had new girlscoming in and out (of thegame). We had to get them inthe right positions, and justhappened to do so in that lastpart of the game. We werevery fortunate. I will saythat.”

The win, which wasn’t likethe solid victories againstNorth College Hill and Cincin-nati Christian, left a sour taste

in the coach’s mouth.It likely won’t be one of the

games the team remembersfondly, but he did say it servesas a reminder to continue towork and not sleepwalkthrough any team.

He also said it was good tosee his team converting freethrows when they matter themost.

Summit, being the class ofthe league, is going to be diffi-cult to catch. For that reason,Snell said a lot of the season isabout becoming the best ver-sion of the team.

However, they aren’t goingto give up when the two Coun-try Days square off again Feb.3.

“We don’t always thinkwe’re out of it against Sum-mit,” the coach said. “They’retwo games ahead of us rightnow. There’s always that gameyou want to win and Summit isthat game for us. From there,we want to pick up momentuminto the tournament roundsand hopefully things will hap-pen for us there.”

READING - In his chase tobring a third consecutive GirlsGreater Cincinnati League bas-ketball title to Mount NotreDame, Dr. Scott Rogers will relyon youthful energy and veteranwisdom.

His veteran wisdom tells himhis two ninth-grade starters areno longer freshmen. Two-thirdsinto the season, in the eyes ofthe dribbling Doc, Julia Hoe-fling and Gabby Marshall arefull-fledged varsity playerswith all of the expectations thatbrings.

“They’re very good, but theystill don’t know what very goodmeans at this level,” Rogerssaid. “It takes some time toknow how to play against pres-sure for 32 minutes. They’re notused to being so heavily guard-ed.”

At forward, the 5-foot-10Hoefling is right with seniorAbby Weeks in scoring withboth hovering around 12 pointsper game. Not far behind is 5-foot-6 guard Gabby Marshall.This is the first time Rogers canrecall starting two freshmenfrom the beginning of the sea-son.

In addition to their point pro-duction, Hoefling is MND’s toprebounder and leads in blocksand assists. Marshall leads theteam in steals.

The pair made the lineupwith MND losing six seniorslast season, including theleague’s top scorer in NaomiDavenport. Weeks is now theteam veteran and has nearlydoubled her production of thelast two seasons.

“She’s a natural scorer andshe’s really been working hardon her defense,” Rogers said.“Everybody else sees that.”

Other key contributors forMND are junior Maria Pisciottain the pivot and sophomore Ab-bie Voss, whose brother, Riley,

is a Moeller High School starter.Senior Abbie Scholz was hurt atthe end of last season and is hop-ing to be cleared to play in a fewweeks.

Casey Dingwall, Bella Mono-men and Chase Bauer are theother Cougar seniors.

“Some of them aren’t in therotation, but I’ve gained a lot ofrespect for them,” Rogers said.“They’ve had to lead from thebench and in practice in howthey approach things.”

In a holiday tournament inlate December, MND droppedtwo games they were winning inthe fourth quarter to Wayne andAlter. Despite the losses, Rog-ers thinks his team and thefreshmen are gaining momen-tum.

“Gabby (Marshall) is ourbest point guard,” Rogers said.“Julia (Hoefling) is playing thefour and doing really well. It’sunusual, but you lose six seniorsand spots open up.”

Ahead for MND is a roadgame at Seton Jan. 21 and at St.Ursula Jan. 26. They returnhome for a rematch with McAu-ley Jan. 28. The Cougars wonthe first meeting 51-37.

“Our kids have come togeth-er after the losses at the break,”Rogers said. “I don’t care ifwe’re starting freshmen or sen-iors, our goals aren’t going tochange. That’s to compete at thehighest level as we can and getas close to Columbus as we can.We’re not going to back downfrom anybody.”

TONY TRIBBLE/FOR THE COMMUNITY PRESS

Mount Notre Dame head coach Scott Rogers states his opinion from the bench.

INDIAN HILL - Nate Gibsoncan now add conference cham-pion to his list of impressivesoccer accomplishments.

Just four months after com-peting at the U.S. Youth SoccerNational Championships withhis Cincinnati United PremierU18 club, the Cincinnati Coun-try Day graduate helped leadWashington and Lee Universityto a conference title.

That was a breakthrough forGibson, whose Indians teamsfinished just shy of Miami Val-ley Conference titles during hisfour high school seasons.

Gibson started every matchin his first season playing forthe Generals. He earned third-team All-ODAC honors afterhelping lead the program to itsfirst ODAC title since 2000. Gib-son kept his streak of all-confer-

ence honors intact for a fourthstraight season. Gibson earnedAll-MVC first team honors inhis final three seasons playingfor the Indians.

Although he expected to playmidfield for the Generals, Gib-son embraced a position switchto defender. He was prepareddue in large part to the high lev-el of soccer he played with hisCUP team the month beforeW&L opened camp.

“I came into camp in shapebecause of all the soccer Iplayed in July at Nationals withCUP,” he said.

He adapted to the new posi-tion and the college game quick-ly. He was thrown into the fireright away, starting from theopening match of the seasonand starting all 22 of the Gener-als’ matches.

“It’s a different type ofgame,” said Gibson. “It’s morephysical and less possession-

based.”It helped that he was one of 12

freshmen on the roster. Once helearned to emphasize his dualthreat skills as a passer anddribbler, he became more com-fortable in the Generals’ sys-tem.

“At the start of the season, Ihad some first-year nerves,”said Gibson. “After the firstthree or four games, it all start-ed to click. Getting more in-volved in the offense reallyboosted my confidence.”

The Generals advanced tothe second round of the NCAAtournament and were ranked23rd in the NSCAA poll, the pro-gram’s first top 25 rankingsince 2006. W&L graduates justtwo seniors from the champion-ship roster, and expectationsfor Gibson and his teammateswill be high in 2016.

“Our seniors were greatleaders,” he said. “The future is

certainly bright for our team.”It was a whirlwind first sea-

son for Gibson, who continuedhis streak of success on the soc-cer field. He seamlessly bal-anced his first college courseload while starting every matchfor a championship team. He isalready focused on defending

the conference crown in 2016and now knows what it takes tosucceed at the college level.

“The preseason felt prettylong, but after that, the wholesemester flew by,” said Gibson.“School’s really tough, but it’sbeen great for teaching me timemanagement.”

In the fall of 2013, Vi-sionaries + Voices put outan international call formail art.

With the theme “neigh-borhood” and no limita-tions on medium or size,Visionaries + Voices com-mitted to responding tothe first 200 submissions.

The response was over-whelming, connecting Vi-sionaries + Voices with aninternational mail art net-work.

The exhibit, “Enve-lope,” showcases relation-ship-building through art.

Unlike most exhibi-tions sponsored by Vision-aries + Voices, where artcreated by artists work-ing from the Visionaries +

Voices studios is curatedfor exhibition, what willbe on display will be acombination of Visionar-ies + Voices work andwhat’s been receivedfrom the world highlight-ing international connec-tions with renowned Flux-us artists.

The exhibit will be ondisplay at the Main Li-brary of the Public Li-brary of Cincinnati andHamilton County throughMarch 10.

It doesn’t matterwhere you look on theinternet these days thescammers are out therehoping to get your atten-tion.

Jason, of GreaterCincinnati wrote me, “Alady and her husbandare living off robbinggood people – and may-be exposing them willkeep them from gettingother people.”

Jason says he sawyard sales posted bythese people on severalwebsites. He writes,“They have multiple adstrying to sell everythingfrompurebred puppiesto cars and TVs. Recent-ly they sold me a brokenPlaystation 3. It didn’twork and after trying tocontact them I wasblocked and ignored.”

Jason says after hereported the sellers tothe website on which hebought the unit he,“started hearing abouthow they have scammedmany young people into

buyingbroken orfalselyadvertiseditems.”

OhioAttorneyGeneralMike De-Wine saysin 2015 hisoffice

received about 30 com-plaints from people whosaid they bought a pup-py or other pet online,but never received any-thing in return. Theaverage loss to consum-ers was about $1,200.

As was the case withJason, the key to stop-ping this fraud is to askto see the item beingsold in person beforeyou make any payments.Just seeing a picture ofthe item or the puppyonline is not enough toprotect you from thesescammers.

DeWine says, “In atypical puppy scam aconsumer finds an ad

for a puppy online. Theconsumer communi-cates with the seller,agrees to buy the puppy,and eventually wires afew hundred dollars tohave the puppy deliv-ered.”

Rather than receivingthe puppy the consumergets a demand for moremoney to either to payfor insurance or trans-portation costs. If theconsumer doesn’t paythe seller may threatento turn him in for animalabuse.

Research any breed-ers and sellers carefullybefore you agree to buyanything. Remember,Jason says when he did alittle checking he start-ed hearing about manyothers who were alsoscammed. If you can’tfind anything about abreeder you need to beskeptical because theattorney general sayssome scam artistschange names regularlyto trick consumers.

When it comes topuppies, be sure to see itfirst and try to take it toan independent veteri-narian for a health exambefore agreeing to buyit. Finally, never wiremoney to a strangerbecause it is next toimpossible to get it backif there’s a fraud.

Hamilton County Pub-lic Health Division of Wa-ter Quality received the2015 Ohio StormwaterAssociation Award forProgram Excellence.

The award recognizessustained excellence asevidenced in ongoing andfrequent developmentand implementation ofinnovative programs toreduce and eliminate il-licit discharge into wa-terways.

The HCPH WaterQuality Team was citedfor implementing an ag-gressive training pro-gram to increase aware-ness of illicit discharges.

Following training,the team ramped up itsmonitoring program andcollaborated with part-ner agencies to map thecounty stormwater sew-er system and infrastruc-ture. The monitoring pro-gram uses specialized

techniques and equip-ment to track discharges.

“Improved monitor-ing and testing ultimate-ly leads to cleaner water-ways,” said Tim Ingram,Hamilton County Healthcommissioner. “As wesee around the nation,water is crucial to our ex-istence. Discharge of im-properly treated waste-water and illegal sub-stances into our stormsewer systems createpublic health issues andcan cause long-termdamage to our water sup-ply.”

The Ohio StormwaterAssociation is a group ofpublic and private citi-zens dedicated to advanc-ing the management ofstormwater and relatednatural resourcesthrough education, lead-ership, watershed-basedcoordination and techni-cal assistance in Ohio.
