GREEN TWP. – Green Town- ship Fire & EMS had another record year for emergency re- sponses in 2015. Township firefighters, para- medics and emergency medical technicians made a total of 7,307 emergency runs last year, breaking the previous record of 7,257 runs set in 2014. “This department is one of the busiest suburban fire de- partments in Hamilton County,” Lt. Michael Nie, public informa- tion officer for Green Township Fire & EMS, said. “With con- tinued growth and develop- ment, we suspect this general upward trend will continue.” The more than 7,000 emer- gency responses last year re- flects an increase of about 87 percent since 1995, and an in- crease of 14 percent in the last five years. Nie said 2015 was the first time the department saw an av- erage of 20 emergency runs per day. As in prior years, he said emergency medical runs again accounted for the vast majority of the department’s responses, with 5,694 medical runs. Crews made 1,613 fire runs last year. The top medical emergency incident to which crews respon- ded was for a sick person, with 849 runs. “Sick person is kind of a broad category,” Nie said. “It could be nausea, or light-headed or any other non-injury type of run if the dispatcher can’t clas- sify it better within the first sec- onds of a call. It’s rather generic so they can get us on the road while they gather more infor- mation.” People experiencing trouble breathing represented the sec- ond-highest number of medical calls, with 636 runs. People in- jured in a fall accounted for the third-highest number of emer- gency medical responses, with 599 runs. Crews made 412 runs for patients with chest pain. “This is not a black and white science,” Nie said. “For instance, a head injury may also be a fall. Many over- doses are dispatched as cardiac arrests or unconscious. It de- pends on how the dispatcher en- ters it based on what the caller says first. “That’s what makes this job interesting. Many times we just don’t know what we have until we get there,” he said. The growing heroin epidem- ic in the region has crept into Green Township, resulting in a steady increase of emergency medical calls for overdoses. In 2012, township crews respon- ded to 34 opiate overdoses. That number grew to 49 runs in 2013 and jumped to 76 runs in 2014. The department made 89 runs for overdoses in 2015. Nie said it is categorized as an opiate overdose because they can’t be certain it is all her- oin. “Opiates all act similarly and are sometimes mixed or substi- tuted,” he said. When gathering the fire sta- tistics for last year, he said he found that no particular type of household fire stands out. Incidents the likes of electri- cal problems, short circuits, power lines down and hot out- lets made up a total of 116 fire runs.

small percentage of theruns we make.”

The most common typeof fire run was for falsealarms of one sort or an-other, he said. Last yearfirefighters made 382 fireruns that turned out to befalse alarms. Of those, 290were for unintentional ac-tivations, such as smokefrom cooking, steam from

a shower or dust.System malfunctions,

such as bad smoke detec-tors or power surges, ac-counted for 79 falsealarms, and he said therewere 13 malicious falsealarms, where a firealarm was intentionallypulled by someone whenthere was no fire.

“Taking part in theNeighborhood MasterPlan update process is afantastic opportunity tohelp shape our township’spriorities for the next five

years,” Trustee MarkBerning said. “I want toencourage residents toconsider applying to be apart of this important civ-ic initiative.”

Residents wanting toknow about a planned re-placement of the NorthBend Road overpass thatspans Interstate 74 willget the chance to talkabout it at a meeting Feb.xx.

ODOT District 8 repre-sentatives will be at thenext meeting of the Mon-fort Heights White OakCommunity Associationat 7:30 p.m. Wednesday,Feb. 17, at the GreenTownship Senior Center,3620 Epley Road. Thismeeting was rescheduledafter being cancelled in

January because ofweather.

Andy Fluegemann, theplanning engineer, andScott Kraus, the workzone traffic engineer, willspeak at the meeting, tooutline the scope of theproject and its two phasesand their impact on thetraffic flow across thebridge, and the schedulesfor completion of eachphase.

The multi-million dol-lar overpass replacementproject on North BendRoad in Monfort Heightswill get under way thisspring and will likely notbe finished until some-time in 2017.

The Ohio Departmentof Transportation is re-placing the overpass,maintaining traffic inboth directions through-out the project. There area number of reasons to re-place the bridge, accord-ing to Sharon Smigielski,public information offi-cer for the Ohio Depart-ment of Transportation’sDistrict 8.

The new bridge willcarry will carry two lanesof southbound throughtraffic, one southboundramp lane, and two lanesof northbound throughtraffic. The overpass re-placement will also in-crease the vertical clear-

ance for traffic on I-74,making it better able toaccommodate “super-size” loads.

The construction esti-mate for the project is$7.9 million. Bids are setto close Feb. 11, and theODOT expects to awardthe contract Feb. 22.While the start date willbe dependent on the win-ning company’s schedule,Smigielski said the pro-ject is tentatively expect-ed to start in April.

Hamilton County Engi-neer Ted Hubbard sayshis agency has been meet-ing with representativesfrom the Ohio Depart-ment of Transportationand Green Township tomitigate the traffic issuesand make sure that emer-

gency vehicles travelingfrom north of the MercyHospital West Campus on

North Bend are not de-layed while transportingpatients.

La Salle High SchoolThe National Flag Company

(NFC) has been a staple in Cin-cinnati since the 1800’s. Manu-facturing a quality product andmaking their customers happyhas been the company’s goalsince day one. Enter ArtieSchaller III ’04, La Salle HighSchool graduate.

Schaller is creating a line offlags themed specifically toCincinnati. The first flag pro-duced is a mock up of Cincin-nati’s city flag, but transformedto reflect a Bengals theme.

One of the distinct featureson Cincinnati’s flag is the Latintext “Juncta Juvant,” whichmeans Strength and Unity. Ar-tie looked to replicate Latin texton his flag, but wanted it relatedthe Bengals. Since NFC just fin-ished La Salle High School’s“Back to Back” footbal statechampionship banners, hereached out to La Salle’s Latindepartment.

Dave Jacob, was the man tostep in and help.

“Artie tried to use websitesfor the Latin translation, but ev-ery website that he used saidsomething different, so heasked me for help,” Jacob said.“I gave him translations of both“Who Dey” (Qui Ei?) and “Wel-come to the Jungle” (SalveteSaltui). They liked “Salvete Sal-tui” better because of the flowof the phrase.

“Being a huge Bengals fanand a Latin teacher, I was veryexcited to help them out,” Jacobsaid. “It’s great to have the flagas my students walk into theroom. It’s a good conversation

starter for all of my studentsabout what the phrase means.”

St. Ignatius SchoolThe NCEA has recognized

Anne Burgan of Saint IgnatiusSchool for her outstanding ef-forts, contributions, andachievements on behalf ofCatholic education.

Only two individuals fromOhio received this distinction,and Burgan was the only teach-er from Ohio to win the award.

“NCEA commends the out-standing efforts, contributionsand achievements of these ex-ceptional leaders in Catholiceducation,” said Thomas W.Burnford, NCEA interim presi-dent. “These leaders are recog-nized as ambassadors of faithformation and academic excel-lence and serve as inspirationfor all of us working in Catholiceducation.”

Burgan was recognized formany leadership accomplish-ments including starting a sum-mer service camp for sixth-,seventh- and eighth-graders. In

the summer of 2015, she offeredfour weeks of camp that wereattended by 60 students (andeven more were on waitinglists), impacting nine local not-for-profit agencies. As wordabout the summer camp experi-ence has spread, younger stu-dents are asking to attend, andteachers from area schools arecalling for guidance on how to

start their ownservice camp.

In addition,Burgan is the co-ordinator of theSuper BibleBowl, an Archdi-ocesan-wide aca-demic competi-tion betweenteams demon-

strating their knowledge of theBible. She also collaboratesabout challenges and successesin meeting the needs of excep-tional learners in their ownschools through Xavier Univer-sity’s Exceptional LeadershipLab.

“Anne is an accomplished in-structor,” St. Ignatius PrincipalTim Reilly said. “She differen-tiates her lessons, uses technol-ogy, builds internal motivationin the students, and models thelove of Christ in her interac-tions. I have a hard time decid-ing if she has more talent, ener-gy or drive.”

Burgan will be presented theLead. Learn. Proclaim. Awardat the NCEA 2016 Conventionand Expo in San Diego in March.

FEBRUARY 10, 2016 • NORTHWEST PRESS • 7ANEWS

I almost forgot about Fat Tuesday thisyear. So I’m late in sharing one of my favor-ite recipes for red beans and rice. But youknow what? This is a recipe that’s a keeper,and good anytime. In fact, I make it moreduring Lent than any other time of year.That’s because I can vary it to make it veg-etarian or not.

Like serving it alongside pork tenderlointhat I’ll rub with a bit of Cajun seasoning.Or adding sautéed shrimp right before Iserve it.

Can you help? Mcalister’s chicken anddumpling soup

Tri-County Press reader Christine C. loves thissoup. She said: “It is not available every day, andone of the three area McAlister’s I frequent doesn’teven carry it. I guess it is up to the managerswhich soups they carry. It is basically a thick brothwith chicken and these wonderful, big, flat, doughy“dumplings”. The dumplings are not a biscuit type

dumpling, and the broth has a wonderfulflavor without the heavy celery flavor somebroths have. I would love to be able to havethis whenever I want - not just if I hit McAl-isters on the right day of the week.”

Well, I went to McAlister’s in Kenwoodand darn, they weren’t serving the dumplingsoup. I thought if I could taste it, I may beable to clone it. If you have a similar recipe,please share.

Tip from Rita’s kitchenAvoid sticky fingers when breadingYou’ll have 3 pans of coating: 2 dry and 1 wet.

Pat the food into the dry coating, and then lift themout with a pair of tongs to put into the wet, coatingboth sides well. Then drop into the last dry coatingand pat coating on with your fingers. Nice andclean!

Slow cooker cranberry pork roast

From Audrey, a Northside reader, who says she loves mak-ing this because it’s so simple, and everyone raves about it.

1 boneless rolled pork loin roast, about 2-1/2 to 3 pounds1 can jellied cranberry sauce1/2 cup sugar1/2 cup cranberry juice1 teaspoon dry mustard1/4 teaspoon ground cloves or bit more to taste2 tablespoons each: cornstarch and cold water

Put roast in slow cooker. In a bowl mash cranberry sauce,stir in sugar, cranberry juice, mustard and cloves. Pour over roast.Cove r and cook on low 6-8 hours or until meat is tender. Re-move roast and keep warm. Skim fat; measure 2 cups addingwater if necessary, and pour into a saucepan. Bring to a boil.Combine cornstarch and water to make a paste and stir intogravy. Cook until thickened. Season to taste with salt and pep-per and serve over sliced pork.

Red beans and rice

Rice and beans together make a protein filled dish. Useyour favorite beans if you don’t like red beans.

1 very generous cup diced onion2-3 teaspoons garlic, minced1-2 teaspoons cumin1 bay leaf1 teaspoon chili powder blend or to taste2 cups rice2 cans red beans, drained4 cups vegetable or chicken broth, or bit more if neededSalt and pepper to tasteTo stir in after cooking: Favorite greens (If using Kale, add

when you put rice in as it takes longer to cook).

Garnish: Thinly sliced green onions, chopped tomatoesFilm pan with olive oil. Add onion, garlic, cumin, bay and

chili powder. Sauté until onion looks almost clear. Add rice,beans and broth. Bring to boil. Cover and lower to a simmer andcook until rice is tender. Remove bay.

Why this recipe is good for you:Beans: Lower cholesterol, stabilize blood sugar, and re-

duce risk of cancer and heart disease.Onions and garlic: Great for your heart.Tomatoes: Contains antioxidants and is good for the

prostate.Brown rice vs. white: Nutritionally superior, your body

I was gratified to read in your frontpage article that there were 30 appli-cants seeking the vacant seat of Den-nis Deters.

On the other hand, I was horrified toread that if Trustees Insco and Rittercan’t agree on a candidate, the decisiongoes to the designated committee: Jes-sica Deters, Dan Deters, Laura Deters,plus Dennis Mason and Lynda Mason.I’m not sure if the Masons are relatedto the Deters family but I wouldn’t besurprised. If they can’t agree then the

decision goes to Judge Ralph Winkler,another Republican.

Seriously folks, Colerain needssome new political DNA.

You don’t have to be a geneticist tofigure out diversity makes for astronger organization. Next electionthink about this before you vote or youmay find yourself living in the Repub-lic of Detersville.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Feb. 3 questionThere are proposals in the Ohio legis-

lature to eliminate “pay to play” fees forschool extracurricular activities (athleticand non-athletic). Is this a good idea?Why or why not?

“I would like to see the charges forextracurricular activities eliminated.Many of the students’ families strug-gle with the $200-$500 per student peractivity charges. For those familiesthat have multiple family members in-volved in multiple activities it can beoverwhelming. These extra curricularactivities are very important to devel-op the whole person and promoteteamwork. Some schools charge foot-ball fans for on campus parking. Per-haps that might be an alternative tooffset these costs. Go Figure!”

T.D.T.

Jan. 27 questionWho will be President of the United

States one year from today? Why will heor she have won?

“Hillary Clinton will be the presi-

dent in a year. Why? First because shehas the experience and leadership nec-essary to be the president. Second be-cause the other candidates are drivingthose like me, an independent voteraway. The majority of the other candi-dates have not shared their plans; in-stead they are campaigning on hate, di-visiveness and provide social mediasound bites misrepresenting the truth.Unfortunately, they represent the ex-tremes and as a result get lots of atten-tion, but I am optimistic most voterswill see through the rhetoric, hate andlies and will vote for a more moderatecandidate like Hillary Clinton.”

For the year endingDec. 31, Green Townshiphad total revenue of$47,538,320 and totalexpenses of $45,584,188for all funds.

The township’s gener-al fund had revenue of$4,524,665.

Unlike previous yearswhen the biggest reve-nue generators where theLocal Government Fundand Ohio estate taxes,this is no longer the case.The Ohio estate tax hasbeen eliminated and thestate government hasreduced the distributionto the Local GovernmentFund by approximately50 percent. However, thetownship was very fortu-nate to receive $270,000in Ohio estate taxes duefrom prior years. Thegeneral fund had$3,300,000 in expenses.

However, over thepast few years the town-ship has established fourJoint Economic Devel-opment Districts(JEDDS), which pro-duced $1,436,000 in reve-nue for the general fund.The four JEDDs areWestern Ridge (GoodSamaritan facility), Har-rison Greene (Graeter’s,Dewey’s, First Watch,etc.), Mercy Hospital andthe Christ/Children’sMedical Office Build-

ings.The

largestrevenuegenerat-ing JEDDis theMercyHospitalJEDDwhichgenerat-ed ap-proxi-

mately $1 million in gen-eral fund revenue for thetownship. The majorityof the JEDD funds go toGreen Township, whilesome go to the City ofCheviot for adminis-trative purposes. AJEDD is an arrangementbetween a township and acity that allows them toshare the benefit andresponsibilities of com-mercial development.

Another major sourceof funds for the town-ship, separate from thegeneral fund, is the taxincrement financing(TIF) fund, which hadtotal revenue of$24,754,336. Approxi-mately 38 percent re-mains with the townshipfor improvements. Theremaining funds aredistributed to Oak HillsSchool District, North-west School District, Cityof Cincinnati School Dis-

trict and Great Oaksschools.

In the township TIFfunds are used for policeand fire departmentequipment and infra-structure improvements.At the end of the year,the TIF fund had approx-imately $16,781,000 inunencumbered funds. NoTIF funds can be usedfor personnel expensessuch as fire, police andpublic services salaries.The TIF fund expires in2039.

All funds in the town-ship’s treasury are in-vested pursuant to theOhio Revised Code. Themajority of funds areinvested in federal agen-cy bonds, collateralizedcertificates of deposit,Star Ohio or Star PlusMoney Market Funds.Most of the bonds areladdered to attempt toprotect against largeinterest rate hikes.Thetownship also purchasescallable bonds in an at-tempt to receive moreinterest income for thetownship. In 2015, thetownship received ap-proximately $289,000 ininterest income. All in-vestment income goes tothe general fund.

Reducing energy consumptionaround your home is an important wayto go green and it could save you mon-ey. You can reduce your utility costsby being more conscious of your ener-gy choices around your home. Hereare a few simple ways to reduce costsand energy:

UnplugElectronics like computers, TVs

and cell phones willdrain power evenwhen they’re turnedoff or fully charged.The U.S. Departmentof Energy says 75percent of electricityused to power homeelectronics is con-sumed while productsare turned off. Saveenergy by makingsure you totally cut offpower to your gadgets

when they’re not in use. Either rou-tinely unplug devices from the wall orpurchase power cords that can beswitched on and off to cut off multiplepower sources at once.

Wash wisely Your dishwasher and clothes wash-

er and dryer are two huge sources ofenergy depletion in your home. Washwisely by using cold water wheneverpossible, and make sure you gather afull load of laundry or dishes beforewashing to maximize each usage.

Don’t forget to clean your lint filterafter drying your clothes – a cleanfilter improves air circulation. Beconscious of how much you prewashyour dishes; scraping off food, ratherthan rinsing is sufficient. Also let yourdishes air dry.

Cook consciously

If you’re cooking for one or two,consider investing in smaller appli-ances, such as a toaster oven. A toasterover can use one third to half as muchenergy as a full-sized oven, accordingto the U.S. Department of Energy.

Remember to keep range-top burn-ers and reflectors clean. This will helpreflect the heat more efficiently, andwill save you energy.

Be sure to cover your pots whenboiling or heating liquids. Not only willit get the job done more quickly, butyou’ll be reducing your energy output.

Do daylightDaylighting is the use of windows

and skylights to bring sunlight intoyour home. Incorporate daylightinginto your home to reduce the need forartificial lighting during daylighthours.

Trying to get to the heart of the mat-ter, David Perry and I sat at dinner inDiane’s Restaurant at 1951 AndersonFerry Jan. 18, Martin Luther King Day.

“Now is the time to open the doors ofopportunity to all God’s children,”wrote Rev. King; and David declares,“Now is the time to open the doors ofopportunity to all qualified blind appli-cants as well.” We pondered the mean-ing of his being recognized as Employ-ee of the Year at the Cincinnati Associ-ation for the Blind and Visually Im-paired, where David works as amachine operator. David says he workshard and knows his job well, but heknows he can do other work even clos-er to his heart.

He is a member of a national ad-vocacy group that has more and betteremployment options for people who areblind as its mission. He and his col-leagues want to open the doors of moreemployers to people who have the rightqualifications whether blind or sightedapplicants.

People who are blind and becomesuccessfully employed are still in 2016approximately only 30 percent of work-ing aged people who are blind. We hap-pened to find that statistic shockingand hard to understand. Maybe, in theminds of too many people, people whoare blind are not expected to succeedas competent employees, are not ex-pected to marry and raise children, arenot expected to be responsible citizensand good neighbors and friends.

Perhaps, sharing an anecdote aboutmyself as an 18-year-old just graduat-ing from high school more than 50years ago at St. Thomas in Fort Thomaswill get to the heart of the matter.When I walked up to receive my diplo-ma with someone guiding me, the audi-ence applauded longer and louder than

for any other gradu-ate. I was glad that myabilities and successwere recognized, butinside I felt resent-ment because some-how maybe I was notexpected to succeedbecause I was blind.My next thought wasthis: “How many ofthe employers in theaudience would offer

me a job even though I had all of thequalifications for it.

David wants many more doors toswing open when we walk in for jobinterviews and wants employers togreet us with the expectation that theymay have just found the right personfor the job. David and I both know that,when a qualified job applicant who isblind steps confidently in the door of apotential employer, he or she is toooften treated as though they do notbelong there. Yet, my friends, whenthat same employer looked at the appli-cant’s resume, the applicant was in-vited to come for an interview.

In short, people who are sighted andpeople who are blind are 100 percentthe same if we all are expected to suc-ceed and have equal opportunities tobecome successful in our employmentof choice.

David, please do not become dis-couraged. Keep trying to get the mes-sage out that you are Employee of theYear because of your fine qualities asan employee and that employers, in-cluding John Mitchell at CABVI andCEO W. Rodney McMullen at the Krog-er Co., would be fortunate to have youwork for them.

MONFORT HEIGHTS- The youth is clearly vis-ible on La Salle HighSchool’s wrestling team,but it’s also viable. Youthand inexperienced are inthe same arena, butthey’re definitely differ-ent.

Just because the Lanc-ers are young doesn’tmean they’re inexperi-enced. In La Salle’s case,quite the opposite.

“All in all, I think we didpretty much what wethought we’d do during theregular season,” said LaSalle coach Avery Zerkle.“We’re a pretty good tour-nament team, not a realgood dual team at thispoint.”

La Salle, which lost inthe first round of the stateduals to Harrison, finishedsecond as a team at theGlenn Sample CoachesClassic, second at AllianceHigh School’s Top Gun In-

vitational and won the Ed-gewood Invitational.

Not only do the Lancershave returning wrestlerswho made deep tourna-ments runs last season,they also have more than afew newcomers who haveproven they belong.

Juniors Corey Shie andEric Beck, both state qual-ifiers last season, have ledthe way again this season.Shie’s racked up a 30-3 rec-ord and the 132-pounderwon his bracket at theCoaches Classic, Top Gunand the Grizzly Invitation-al at Wadsworth. Beck hasbeen equally impressivewith a 32-5 record and a ti-tle at the Coaches Classic.

Senior 120-pounder Ja-red Thiemann was a dis-trict qualifier last seasonand he’s only gotten better

“He’s finally cominginto his own here,” Zerklesaid of Thiemann, who’s25-9 this season with a run-ner-up at the CoachesClassic.

Junior Hunter Perdue

has gone 25-8 and he’s hitthe podium at four tourna-ments.

Sophomore Blake Wil-son has gone 20-5 with arunner-up at the CoachesClassic and a title at Edge-wood. Freshmen LucasByrd (106), Trey Sizemore(126), Michael Baker (170)and Garrett Bledsoe (182)have all been impressive.

Byrd finished first atTop Gun, second at Coach-es Classic and he’s 22-6. Si-zemore’s gone 18-8 withseventh place at CoachesClassic. Baker has gone29-7 and the big stagehasn’t bothered him as hetook third at Coaches Clas-sic, third at Top Gun,fourth at the Grizzly andseventh at the ultra-toughBrecksville-BroadviewHeights Invitational.Bledsoe started the seasonlate because he was play-ing linebacker for theLancers’ state champion-ship gridiron run. Bled-soe’s 16-8 and he placedfourth at Top Gun.

COLERAIN TWP -Northwest senior guardKobe Brown scored 19points in a 73-63 winagainst Little Miami Jan.29.

Three points of that to-tal will be what the guardremembers most fromthat victory. Browneclipsed the 1,000-pointmark with a triple fromthe right wing with 1:43left in the first quarter.

The game was stoppedbriefly while Brown wasawarded a specially in-scribed basketball andcelebrated on the courtwith members of his fam-ily.

“It was a neat night forhim,” coach Nick Argen-tati said. “Reaching 1,000points in a career is toughto do. He’s been our go-toguy this season. He’s keptus steady.”

As of Feb. 5, he was sec-ond in the Southwest OhioConference in scoring.

But Brown isn’t theonly one filling it up aspart of Argentati’s ar-senal. Jay Harris andGeorge Daniels havestepped up and combined

to score 22 points pergame.

The pair produced 10points per game last sea-son.

“With the seniors wehad last year, George andJay were mainly roleplayers,” the coach said.“This year, they’vestepped up and had somebig games for us.”

The senior’s milestonewas the latest moment in aseason where a lot hasgone right for the

Knights.Heading into last

weekend, Northwest hadwon nine games in a rowfollowing a 3-5 start to theseason. Their last loss inthat stretch was to RogerBacon Dec. 22.

They held a three-game lead heading intothe pair of weekend con-tests. If the Knights pickup wins against Harrisonand Talawanda, theyclinch their second-con-secutive SWOC title.

They shared the titlewith rival Mount Healthylast season.

“This season, we want-ed to top last season’s reg-ular-season finish (18-4),”Argentati said. “Becausethat can’t happen (afterthe loss to Bacon), ourgoal was to be undefeatedin the league.”

After last weekend, po-tentially two more winsstand in their way. Allthat’s left is a Feb. 10 gameagainst Edgewood and aFriday matchup againstthe Owls, which could bean even more spiritedgame if circumstances re-main the same.

“This has been a nicestreak,” the coach said.

Now a warning aboutan elaborate scam thattries to convince con-sumers their energy billis overdue and needs tobe paid immediately.

Duke Energy says itis aware of this scam,that it’s shown up in fivestates, and that it’s notunique to Duke since itis happening to all util-ity companies throughthe U.S. and Canada.However, Duke says,complaints about thisscam have doubled inthe past year.

In Greater Cincinnatia customer named Stevewrote me to say he re-ceived a phone call atthe end of January fromsomeone claiming to befrom Duke Energy.

“They told me theyhave a work order toshut off the electric tomy business. I explainedmy case, thinking theywere really Duke repre-sentatives, stating thatmy bill is current – and Ichecked online thateverything was OK, thatpayment was received.”

But, Steve writes,“They went on to saythat it has not been re-ceived and they will doan investigation but inthe meantime a paymentmust be made withinone hour or the powerwill be turned off. I toldthem I can give them apayment over the phoneand they said it’s too latefor that, that I will haveto go to CVS and make apayment of $946.”

Steve says he ques-tioned that amount since

his last billwas onlyfor $547.

“Hesaid it washigher dueto rein-statementfees. Hegave me aphonenumber to

call. I hung up the phoneand decided to callDuke. They said every-thing was fine on theaccount-- and they don’tcall anyway. They arelooking into it,” Stevewrote.

The number Stevewas told to call beganwith 844 which is a tollfree number not as-signed to any particularpart of the U.S. Afterlearning the call was ascam he writes, “I tookit upon myself to callthat 844 number and itreally does say DukeEnergy with a menuselection. I pressed 1and within two rings Idid get a person thatsaid, ‘Thank you forcalling Duke Energy.How may I direct yourcall?’ This is a very hightech scam, others needto be alerted.”

The scammer wastrying to get Steve toput that $946 paymenton a prepaid debit card.He would then call thatphone number, to thosepretending to be withDuke, and give them thenumbers on that debitcard. That would allowthe scammers to get the$946 immediately and

get away without atrace.

Duke Energy warns,“Prepaid debit cards arelike cash and the trans-actions cannot be re-versed. If a caller spe-cifically asks you to payby prepaid debit card,this is a red flag.”

Duke Energy says itwill never call and de-mand immediate pay-ment without first send-ing you a notification bymail. In fact, it says itwill send several noti-fications over thecourse of several weeksprior to electric servicedisconnection. Dukealso says it will neverask for credit or debitcard numbers over thephone.

Duke says some cus-tomers have receivedemails claiming theirenergy bill is past dueand instructs them toclick on a link to paytheir bill. It warns not toclick on the link becausethat could result in avirus being downloadedonto their computer orlead of the theft of theirpersonal information.

Duke says it's work-ing with law enforce-ment to try to stop thesetelemarketing fraudrings. It says technologymakes it very difficultto trace these criminalscalls and notes they canbe calling from any-where in the world.

BeauVita services foradults with disabilities be-came part of the growingStepping Stones Inc. fam-ily Jan. 1.

The integration ofBeauVita into SteppingStones expands day ser-vices available on theWest Side of Greater Cin-cinnati and increase op-tions throughout the re-gion, Stepping Stones ex-ecutive director Chris Ad-ams of Terrace Park said.

BeauVita Board Presi-dent Mike Morency ofDelhi Township said thetwo-year-old BeauVitaWest adult services pro-gram is at capacity, with37 clients and eight staff,and has a long waiting list.

“We wanted to expand,but we didn’t have the re-sources,” Morency said.”Stepping Stones has theresources and a fantasticreputation. This is defi-

nitely a win-win situa-tion.”

Stepping Stones, whichserves more than 150adults with disabilities inits Adult Services pro-grams in Norwood andBatavia, calls the new siteStepping Stones’ BeauVi-ta West campus.

Both agencies providesimilar day programmingfor adults with develop-mental disabilities, in-cluding community ex-cursions, recreational ac-tivities and life skills.Stepping Stones’ partici-pants tend to have greaterphysical challenges thanthe BeauVita partici-pants. The new configura-tion expands the scope ofservices to people with awider range of disabili-ties, said Adams.

He said three BeauVitaboard members will jointhe Stepping Stones boardand he expects the BeauV-ita staff to remain inplace.

Stepping Stones is a$4.7 million United Waypartner agency servingmore than 1,000 children,teens and adults with dis-abilities at three campus-es. The BeauVita Westcampus at 5195 NorthBend Road in MonfortHeights will be SteppingStones’ fourth campusand its first foray into thewest side.

In 2014, United Cere-bral Palsy of Greater Cin-cinnati merged into Step-ping Stones, creatingStepping Stones’ thirdprogram site in Norwood.Other Stepping Stonescampuses are in IndianHill and Batavia.

Adams said he has hada long-held goal of open-ing a Stepping Stones siteon the West Side of Cincin-nati. Stepping Stones runstwo camp buses from theWest Side to SteppingStones’ summer daycamps for children withdisabilities.

“These campers willgrow up and need ser-vices as adults,” Adamssaid. Several participantsin Stepping Stones’ AdultServices program in Nor-wood are from the WestSide of town.
