Colerain Twp. — What makes a snowplow just as useful in the summer as it iswhen pushing slush and snow off theroads?
A $75 investment and the clever useof scrapmaterials found at the ColerainTownship Public Works Department al-lowsoneofthedepartment’splowtrucksto do double duty these days. A crew ofworkers modified the hydraulics thatmakethesnowplowraiseanddrop intoalift so it is now a tool for work they doduring the summer.
The crew named their modificationtheRhinoLiftbecauseit looksalittle likea rhino’s snout with its horn on the end.
“We had a need to lift heavy castingsfor catch basin inlet rebuilding,” saidTim Lange, Colerain Township road su-pervisor. “With our aging infrastructureandmore than 3,300 catch basin inlets tomaintain, we had to get creative to im-prove efficiency and promote safety forour employees, residents and the travel-ing public.”
Catch basins are the large grates anddrains in the curbs to allow stormwaterrunoff to escape the roadway.
Before the Rhino Lift, a crew had totakeextraequipmenttoacatchbasinjobsite, suchasanextradump truckpullinga trailer with a backhoe.
Hesaid that tookupvaluable residen-tial street parking and required an extraperson and time for posting of tempor-ary no-parking signs on the day prior tothe work beginning.
Loading and unloading the backhoewas also a concern and there was extratravel time. And the backhoe was un-available for other jobswhen itwas only
usedat the start of the rebuild to removethecastingandset itoff to thesideandatthe end of the rebuild to put the castingback in place on.
Langesaidsometimesworkerswouldtry to lift the single-catch basin inletcastings by hand to avoid the inconve-nience of using the back hoe, risking in-jury.
So the crew came upwith amodifica-tion to the plow truck that uses the samehydraulics thatmove the plow to lift thegrates.
“We spentmoney on paint and a plowmarker so the operator can see the endof the lift,” Lange said. “We had themet-al beam sitting around as scrap. I bet it’sbeen in thedepartment for 20years.Youcan easily do this job with a two-personcrew now.”
The team hooks up the catch basin orgrate toachain thathooksonto themetalarmon the frontof the truck thatusuallysupports the plow. The arm neatly lifts
thegrate out andcanalsobeused to low-er it back into place.
“It’s pretty clever,” said KevinSchwartzhoff, director of public ser-vices for Colerain Township. “They aresaving the townshipmoneyandbeingef-ficient. You can’t ask for more thanthat.”
The innovation won third place in astatewide Build a Better MousetrapCompetition sponsored annually by theOhio Local Technical Assistance Pro-gram Center.
The annual competition draws en-tries from counties, cities, townships,and villages. The competition’s purposeis to collect and disseminate real-worldexamplesofbestpractices, tips fromthefield and to assist in the transfer of tech-nology. The competition allows innova-tive ideas to be exchanged with othersthat may benefit from different con-cepts and perspectives.
“We have always been making thetoolswe need and finding betterways todo our job, but we never entered any-thing in this competition,” he said. “Wethought we’d give it a try and we tookthird place. Not bad.”
This crew came up with the Rhino Lift, which won third place in a statewide innovation contest. From left, Road supervisor Tim Langeand maintenance workers Steve Rader, Paul Schwab and and Kraig Rieman. PROVIDED

Green Twp. — Voters here will see asafety services levy on the ballot whenthey visit the polls in November.
Green Township Trustees votedMonday, July 8, to place a renewal of a1.9-mill safety services levy on the fallballot.
The five-year levy was first ap-proved by township voters in 2008.
As a renewal levy, it is not subject tothe new tax levy provisions set forth inthe state’s recently approved biennialbudget, according to Hamilton CountyAuditor Dusty Rhodes.
Right now the statepays 12.5 percent of localproperty tax bills andhomeowners pay the re-maining 87.5 percent.The12.5 percent rollbackwas created as a dealwith taxpayers in 1971when the state estab-lished an income tax.
Under the state’s newbudget the 12.5 percentrollback is gone, and be-ginning this Novemberall new and replacementtax levies approved bythe public will requirehomeowners and proper-ty owners to pay 100 per-cent of the tax bill.
Rhodes said renewallevies, since they wereoriginally approved be-fore November, will notbe affected by the newprovision.
Green Township Trus-tee Chairman Rocky Boi-man said it’s importantresidents know the levyis a renewal of an existing levy and itwill not raise taxes.
It costs the owner of a home worth$100,000 about $56 per year in propertytaxes. It generates roughly $2 millionannually for the police and fire depart-ments, with each department receivingabout $1million.
Boiman said due to state cuts like theelimination of the estate tax and reduc-tions to the local government fund, thetownship is estimated to lose $2.5 mil-lion to $3 million in revenue next year.
“All the cuts to local governmentsare really beginning to take shape thisyear and next,” he said.
“This is a very crucial levy for ourpolice and fire departments so theyhave the resources and equipment theyneed to continue providing excellentservices to our residents.”
Green Township Fire & EMS ChiefDoug Witsken said the township askedfor the levy five years ago because thepolice and fire departments saw a 55percent increase in emergency runsand calls for service in the10-year peri-od from1997 to 2007, but staffing levelsdid not keep up with the increase.
The levy allowed the fire depart-ment to add two firefighters around theclock at the Dent fire station, whichgives the department the ability to op-erate a full ambulance crew and a fullfire truck crew, Witsken said. Prior tohaving two full crews, he said if an am-

Green Township Po-lice Chief Bart West saidthe department uses thelevy funds topay for sala-ries, benefits and the
costs of operating the de-partment. After the levywas passed in 2008, thepolice department hiredfour officers and added apatrol beat.
“Due to the cutbacksat the state level, we arein dire need of passingthis renewal levy,” Westsaid.
“We can’t afford tolose this levy. It would re-sult in serious cutbacks.”
Witsken said if the re-
newalwere to fail and thetownship loses an addi-tional $2 million in reve-nue, on top of the all thestate cuts, it would have adevastating affect on po-lice and fire services.
“Every township de-partment has reallytightened its belt,” hesaid. “It’s important to re-new this levy so we cancontinue to operate theway we currently arewith our belts tight.”

Colerain Twp.—When19-year-old Megan Gore diedfrom a sudden brain aneu-rysm in 2006, she left fam-ily and friends looking forways to keep her memoryalive in ways that wouldmake a difference.
Her mom, Jen Barlow,says her daughter did in-credible things in hershort 19 years not only inschool, but also in the com-
munity.Her mom describes
Megan as an active mem-ber of the Colerain com-munity.
Before Megan’s death,she was in the Universityof Cincinnati’s DAAP pro-gram studying fashion de-sign. TheMeganGoreMe-morial Scholarship isawarded each May to astudent at Colerain HighSchool who exemplifieswhat Megan stood for:leadership, education, de-dication and service to thecommunity.
The seventh annualMegan Gore MemorialWalk ismeant to help cele-brate her life, and raisemoney tokeep thescholar-
ship goingfor manyyears tocome.
It will befrom 10a.m. to 1p.m. Satur-day, July27, at Cole-
rain Park, 4725 SpringdaleRoad. Registration is at 9a.m.
There will be hot dogs,chips, popcorn, cottoncandy, face painting, DJBrown with music and abasket raffle and silentauction.
There is also a new hotpink T-shirts with the slo-gan “Keep Calm andSterger On!”
Sterger On! was Mega-n’s motto, meaning no re-grets backwards.
“When shewas a seniorin high school at a leader-ship training camp, shehad to come up with aphrase. Live your life withno regrets was what itmeant; I didn’t knowaboutit when she did it,” hermom said.
“I found out at her fu-neral. It was somethingunique to her but it wasmeaningful that she wastrying to live that way.”
Theresa Strong, a long-time friend of the Barlowfamily,saysbasketraffles,auctions and T-shirt salesfrom the walk have raisedmore than $20,000 for thescholarship fund since thefund was established.

ColerainTownship—Offi-cials from the NorthwestLocal School District ac-cepted a $400,000 checkfrom the Greater Cincin-nati Energy Alliance tohelp pay for energy im-provement projects thatare saving the districtmoney.
The district applied forgrant of 10 percent of thecost of selected projectsup to $400,000 from theGreater Cincinnati Ener-gy Alliance’s CommercialBuildings Retrofit Pro-gram to lower the amountthe district had to borrowto complete the projects.Thealliancepresented thecheck at the June 24 boardmeeting.
Chris Meyer, commer-cial operations directorfor the energy alliance,said the alliance received$17 million from the U.S.Department of Energy in2009 and used it to gener-ate $50 million in econom-ic activity in Greater Cin-cinnati.
“The single biggestchunk of that $17 millionhas gone to the Northwestschool district,” he said.
The energy-efficientmakeover that literallypays for itselfwill be com-plete by the end of thesummer, according toDanLawler, who is acting asthe owner’s representa-tive for the district.
Ohio’s Energy Conser-vation Program is some-timescalledtheHouseBill264programafter the1985law that created the fund-ing mechanism. Districtscan borrowmoney by sell-ing bonds without havingto pass a ballot issue for
the authority to borrow.The school districts makeenergy-related improve-ments to district buildingsand use the cost savings topay for them.
The Northwest districtis doing about $5.8 millionin projects. In order toqualify, the savings had topay for bonds for the im-provements, including thecost of the financing,with-in 15 years.
Lawler said the districthad two contracts forwork. The lighting por-tion, which accounted forabout $4 million, is nowcomplete, which allowedthe release of the energyalliance grant.
In that part of the con-tract, gymnasium lightswere a big part of the pro-ject, and 10 buildings re-ceived new lights and fix-tures. The new lights lightup immediately, so theyare turned off when thegym is not in use. Otherlight-related improve-ments included motionsensors which turn lightsout in rooms and vendingmachines as well as soft-ware that turns off com-puters when they are not
in use.A project to replace 50-
year-old boilers at Cole-rain High School and theboiler and steam heaterscalled univents at WhiteOak Middle School is un-derway. Lawler said theboilers are being cut apartand hauled out of thebuildings. The ColerainHigh School boiler remov-al required the district totake out windows as eventhe pieces are too big totake through the doors.
“The new boilers cancome in through thedoors,so that tells you about thestrides in efficiency thathave been made,” Lawlersaid.
Trane Inc., a subsidiaryof Ingersoll and Rand, isthe contractor and mustmonitor and report thesavings each year so thedistrict can make sure it’son track to repay thebonds on time.
The district’s projectswill save about $449,140annually in energy costsand about $50,000 inmain-tenance.Projections say isthat the improvementswill pay for themselves injust under 12 years.

TheElevationvolleyball pro-gram based out of Sports Ex-press near Kings Island sentfour teams to the USA Volley-ball Girls Junior National tour-nament in Big D theweek of In-dependence Day.
The most successful Eleva-tion squad - the16-year-old teamcoached by Sycamore HighSchool girls varsity head coachGreg Ulland and filled with anall-star roster of rising juniorsfrom across the city - finishedfifth in the upper-division tour-nament.
The team won an lower-divi-sion national title the previoussummer.
Three of the 10 Elevation 16players - Abby Williams, Kath-erine Edmondson and LaurenWilkins - were part of UrsulineAcademy’s 2012Division I statetitle program last fall under Li-ons head coach Jeni Case.
“That kind of competitioncan only be good for our area’shigh school teams,” said Case,who owns and operates SportsExpress with her husband, for-mer Purcell Marian HighSchool multi-sport star JohnPaul Case. “The level of play isunbelievable.”
More than just a team event,the national tournament was afamily affair for the Case clan.Logan Case is an 11-year-oldheading into sixth grade at St.Margaret of York. She playedup with the Elevation 12-year-old team that took13th place na-tionally among 48 qualifyingteams.
“Logan’s 12s didn’t lose atournament all year, but whenyou get to nationals, you see awhole different level of volley-ball from other parts of thecountry,” Jeni said. “Some oftheCalifornia teams, thosegirlshave been playing the beachsince they were 4 years old.
Teams play multiple match-es each day, including two daysof pool play before dividing intoNational (upper-level) andAmerican (lower) brackets todetermine the championship.
In addition to the16s and12s,Elevation teams competed atthe 13- and 14-year-old levels.The Elevation 13s finished 11thnationally, while the 14s com-peted in the American bracketand earned a bronze medal.

A Tristate herd of Moosewill make its way west to Cali-fornia by the end of the monthseeking water.
They have been known toflash their antlers andmove te-naciously and aggressively to-ward anyone in their way. In-terestingly, they do seem to ac-commodate tourists seekingtheir picture.
This species cannot befound in a national park orwooded area. Oddly, they con-gregate around chlorinatedpools.
From July 27-Aug. 4, theMooseWater Polo Club startedbycoachesPaulSplitt andNickHellwig will converge on Or-angeCounty for theWaterPoloJunior Olympics. Splitt over-seas the group with Hellwighelping coach the boys andGa-ry Tameris the girls.
All three coach at Sycamoreduring the fall high school sea-son.
The Moose consists of 18and under boys and girls “A”and “B” teams and a juniorhigh group of14 to16 year olds.
“Wewanted to find a uniquename,” Splitt said. “There wasno Moose. We’re the onlyMoose in the nation. What wereally like is when we start agame, we go ‘Mooooooooose!’”
The team is primarily madeup of Sycamore and Masonplayers. They are starting tobranch out to other communi-ties andstudents fromMilford,Princeton,St.Xavier,Ursuline,Reading andAnderson are alsoinvolved.
“The first two years we had30 kids,” Splitt said. “Last year
we were up to around 70 andthis year we’re around 100.”
The club has competed inPittsburgh,AnnArborandChi-cago andhas amix ofwater po-lo-onlyathletes andswimmers.
“Water polo is August, Sep-tember and October (in highschool),” Splitt said. “We wanttomaintain aclose relationshipwith swimming. We believe afaster swimmer is going to be abetter polo player. “
Not all high schools offerthe sport and many of thosethat do have players on theMoose squad. Essentially, theMoose is a non-school seasonall-star team.
“That was one of our origi-nal intentions,” Splitt said. “I

HIGHLAND HEIGHTS —Though field dimensionshaven’t changed and the gamestill involves nine players, thejump toDivision I baseballwasa difficult one for NorthernKentucky University.
After a 36-22 record in 2012,theNorsewere a frustrating 8-47 in their first year in the At-lantic Sun.
To remedy that, coach ToddAsalon has broadened his hori-zons in recruiting. Becausethey were not Division I in thepast, NKU often landed trans-fers who didn’t have to sit out.
Now, like all DI institutions,a transfer must sit a year. Be-cause of the level of play andnew restrictions, the Norsecoaching staff has done somerecent globe-trotting.
“We signedeight Canadiansthis year, we’retrying to go a lit-tle internationalto change thingsup,”Asalon said.“We’re also go-ing out to thewest coast witha couple kids out of the Colora-do area.Wewent with some ju-niorcollegekids thatarea littlebit bigger, stronger and fast-er.”
As a result, NKU will be onthe young side next year withtheir only seniors being BrettCisper from Moeller and ZacAsman from Elder.
Those two are the veteransof the local crew that Asalonwould still like to attract. Whathehas to offer is a favorable lo-cation where friends and fam-ily can watch college games
without consid-erable travel ex-pense.
“Ifwecangetthe local kid,we’d love tohave them,”Asalon said.“You can get achance to come
inhereandplay right awayandthe travel is good. You get to gotoFloridaquitea fewtimesandwe go to California twice.”
Joining Cisper and Asmanon the list of NKU locals is in-fielder Caleb Lonkard of Ryle,pitcher Bela Perler of Ander-son, AlexBolia andNickBeardof Elder, pitcher Drew Camp-bell of La Salle,Madeira catch-er CodyKuzniczci andMoelleroutfielder Ryan LeFevers.
Asalon likes tournament-tested Greater CatholicLeagueplayersandalsohasan-
other player with considerablepostseason experience in Kuz-niczci.
“Hehadagreatyear forus,”Asalon said. “He led us in dou-bles. We asked him to do a lot.He caught a lot and we battedhim in the cleanup spot. We’reexpecting Cody to come in andhave a really good year for us.”
Manyof the locals took theirlumps in the southern-basedAtlantic Sun playing on NKU’snew artificial turf infield.
“With that said, we have 17new kids,” Asalon said. “We’regoing to have great competi-tion and we’ll let them fight itout in the fall. The best manwins and gets to play inspring.”

School’s out for summer!This typically makes half ofthe household happy and halfof the household harried.
Why should mom and dadbe left with all the chores?Enlisting your kids to helpwith the house cleaning notonly takes some of the pres-sure off, it can help build someimportant life skills whilegiving you fun family time.
Houses don’t clean them-selves At least that’s what mymother always told me when Iwas a boy. Kids of all ages canhave a role in keeping thehouse ship shape.
» Cleaning kits/buckets.Personalize some inexpensivebuckets for your kids. Fillthem with the cleaning essen-tials. Make a project out of
decorating thebuckets withpaint pens,stickers, etc.,prior to clean-ing day.
» Today’stechnology. Aswith mostthings, if youmake it fun ormake it agame, your
kids will respond. There’seven an app for that. In Chore-Monster, parents assignchores to their kids, along witha set number of points to beearned when a specific choreis completed. Children canredeem earned points for funrewards such as ice cream, anew video game or a trip to
the zoo. Kids must managetheir chores and keep track oftheir own points, all the whileearning interactive monstersthey play with and learn from.
» Turn up the tunes! Leteveryone in the family choosea song for your cleaningsoundtrack. Music will inspireyou and will help keep yourworkers motivated.
My mom used to alwaysplay the Fleetwood Mac “Ru-mors” album when we cleanedand to this day when I hear it Iwant to start cleaning some-thing.
» Keep the clock. Keep thecleaning to a manageableamount of time. Set a goal tosee how much you can getdone as a family – in one hour.
A few words of caution:
» Assign age appropriatetasks.
» Be mindful of chemicalsaround young children. Makesure your kids are old enoughto understand how to properlyspray and clean with anycleaning solutions. As a rule,window cleaner is generallysafest and bathroom cleanerscontain the harshest chem-icals.
»Make your own all-pur-pose cleaner with a bottle ofwater and a few drops of dishsoap. It’s basically the sameformula that bubbles are madefrom and is safe for countersand wall touch ups. Try not toget it on the floor – slipperywhen wet!
»Dusting seems like theeasiest chore for little ones,
but dusting around breakablescould lead to disaster. Choosesimple bookshelves or toyshelves.
» Check your expectations.The way your child cleansmay not be perfect, or as youwould do it, but be open anduse positive reinforcement tofoster a willingness to cleanagain!
Finally, a little reward nev-er hurt. Cap off a great day ofwork with a family night out.
Here’s to a summer of fun –and a relatively clean house inwhich to rest and relax.
Derek Christian is founderand owner of My Maid Service,the region’s largest, indepen-dent professional cleaningcompany, which is based inBlue Ash.

Last week’s questionShould themorning after pill
be made available to women ofall ages? Why or why not?”
“Anabortion stopsabeatingheart. Birth control keeps thatsituation from occurring. Themorning after pill is part ofbirth control. Leaving reli-gious beliefs out of it I thinkcontrolling unwanted preg-nancies for a person of any ageis better than having abortionsor unwanted births. Go Fig-ure!”
T.D.T.
“If it prevents unwantedpregnancies it should be per-mitted for all ages.”
T.B.
“ChristianandRight-to-Lifegroups will often deny wom-en’s rights to reproductivehealth, but the morning-afterpill should be available as amatter of mature, responsibleuse for any woman over 18.
“It can help avoid over-bur-dening the already heavily lad-en social programs for thepoor.”
T.Rog
“Regardless of what somepeople think, when a woman isold enough to conceive she isold enough to make decisionsabout her potential to havechildren.
“Although there is a com-mon assumption that parentsof minors are entitled to be in-volved in such decisions this isa religious belief that shouldnot be embodied in public law.
“The reason is simple. Mostyoung women who are con-cerned with pregnancy in-stinctively talk to their par-ents. Those who do not usuallyhave good reasons not to – ei-ther their parents hold strongreligious beliefs which theyhave not transferred to their
child, one of their parents is re-sponsible for or somehow is in-volved in the child’s sexual ac-tivity, or the young woman isactively threatened by someaspect of the situation.
“A compassionate society isnot a rigid one. If there wasmore compassion for thosewho have been born in certainquarters than for the ‘unborn’therewouldbefewerabortionsbecause those with unplannedpregnancies would have moresupport and more options, andless harassment and irrationalconfrontation.”
N.F.
“It’s a tough question, butsex does not follow age any-more. So yes, a woman shoulddetermine if she needs the pill,not some male dominated leg-islature.”
Walter
“As long as it’s also avail-able to the gay and lesbiancommunity and I don’t have topay for it I say go for it!!”
D.J.H.
“What’s the point in asking?Some obscure judge some-where ruled that the morning-after pill must be made avail-able to females of all ages.Whoare we mere mortals to ques-tion thedictatesof thehighandalmighty?”

NEXT QUESTIONDo you agree with the newabortion laws that were in-cluded in Ohio’s recently ap-proved budget, such as prohib-iting public hospitals enteringinto written agreements withambulatory surgical centersthat perform abortions toaccept their patients in case ofemergency, and requiringdoctors to test for a fetal heart-beat, then inform the patientseeking an abortion in writingof the presence of that heart-beat, and then provide statis-tical likelihood that the fetuscould be carried to term? Whyor why not?

FREE VERBAL APPRAISAL
When I checked mymail and calls this week,most of them centered onCyndi Mitchell’s porcu-pine meatballs. I had noidea this recipe was sucha beloved one. It wasactually a new one to me.
Julia M., who is “84-plus,” said her mommade these for her andher five siblings manytimes. “Her recipe was alittle different,” Juliasaid. Hers has groundbeef, minced onion, bak-ing powder, milk anduncooked regular ricealong with salt and pep-per. She covers hers withtomato soup and bakesthem in the oven.
Ann Falci and hergirls Emma andMar-ianne were delighted tosee the recipe. “An oftenrequested meal. Weserve it on top of ricewith extra cans of soupas ‘gravy’ and fresh pars-ley on top.”
I love when recipesevoke such a responseand wonderful memories– that’s what cooking isall about.
And blueberry seasonis here. We’ll be pickingat Rouster’s in Milford.Check out my blog forRouster’s blueberry cob-bler with a cookie crust.
Blue ribbonblueberry muffins
Blueberry muffins area popular fair entry.Judging at the local andstate level has given megood criteria for theperfect blueberry muf-fin. I’m sharing my tipsfor a blue ribbon-winningmuffin on my blog. Mostimportantly, though,don’t over mix. The bat-ter should be lumpy. Andalways toss fruit or nutswith flour mixture tokeep them from sinking.If you don’t have butterflavoring, which is inwith extracts at the store,just up the vanilla to 2teaspoons. This is adapt-
ed from ablue rib-bon recipewinnerwho askedto remainanony-mous.1⁄2 stickunsaltedbutter,room
temperature1 cup sugar2 large eggs, roomtemperature
3⁄4 teaspoon butter flavoringextract
11⁄2 teaspoons vanilla extract2 teaspoons baking powderSeveral dashes salt2 cups all-purpose flour(whisk before measuringto lighten up and thenspoon into measuring cup,level off with knife)
2 heaping cups freshblueberries or equivalentfrozen, not thawed, nosugar added, tossed withflour used in recipe
1⁄2 cup whole milk
Preheat oven to 375degrees. Spray muffincups or line with bakingcups. Beat butter andsugar until fluffy. Addeggs one at a time, beat-ing after each addition.Blend in extracts, bakingpowder and salt. Verygently, and by hand, foldin flour and blueberrymixture. Stir in milk.Spoon about 2⁄3 cup batterinto muffin cups (enoughto leave room for rising).Bake 22-25 minutes oruntil golden brown and atoothpick inserted incenter comes out clean.Don’t over bake. Yield: 18or so regular muffins.
Tips from Rita’skitchen
Sprinkle on beforebaking: Plain sugar top-ping or 2 tablespoonssugar mixed with 1⁄2 tea-spoon cinnamon and 1⁄2teaspoon nutmeg.
How tomake store-bought blueberry muf-
fin mix taste like home-made: Add some fresh orfrozen blueberries, un-thawed (a scant cup) and2 teaspoons vanilla.
Mock zucchini crabcakes
Old Bay seasoningmakes these taste a bitlike crab cakes, eventhough there’s no crab inhere. A fellow food writ-er shared this recipe afew years ago. “One ofmymost requested,” shesaid. A good way to useup what you know will bean abundance of zucchi-ni!
2 cups packed coarselygrated zucchini, unpeeled
1 small onion, finelychopped
1 cup Italian breadcrumbs1 tablespoonmayonnaise2-3 teaspoons Old Bayseasoning
1 large egg, beaten lightlySalt and pepper to taste
Drain zucchini andonion in a colander a bitto let some of the liquiddrain out. Combine allingredients. The texturecan be adjusted – if it’stoo wet, add morecrumbs. Heat oil in skil-let. Formmixture intopatties and sauté overmedium high heat untilgolden brown, about 2minutes per side. Makesfour big or six mediumcakes.

A woman seeking tomodify her home mort-gage ends up paying acompany that claims itcan help her.
But now, after someinvestigation, she saidshe feels deceived andwants her money back.
Deborah Spencer, ofHarrison, called herlender recently aboutgetting her home mort-gage modified. But be-fore it could be workedout she went on an out-of-state vacation withher family. “We were onvacation and I got ill. Ihad spoken with mybank about trying tomodify my loan on myhouse because I endedup on Social Securitydisability,” Spencersaid.
Then, while still inthe hospital, she got acall on her cell phonefrom a law firm thatsaid it would help withher loan modification. Itfaxed documents for herto sign while she wasstill on medication andstill in the hospital. It
actuallyfaxed thepapersdirectly tothe hospi-tal whereshe wasrecover-ing.
“I wason medica-tion and
they were very insis-tent. They called con-stantly saying, ‘Oh, wecan send everythingright over and get start-ed right away,’” she said.
The firm also askedher for money. “Theywanted me to give them$2,900 for a retainer.They said, ‘Well, in goodfaith, just give us $1,450now,’” Spencer said.
Spencer sent themoney using her debitcard. When she returnedhome she called hermortgage company rep-resentative who told herhe never heard of thatlaw firm and questionedthe whole thing. Thecontract Spencer re-ceived from the compa-
ny said she had fivedays in which to canceland she tried to do thatimmediately, but with-out any success.
“The law firm opera-tor wouldn’t give me hisname, just said it wasRandy, and pretty muchsaid, ‘Well, we have yourmoney, you’re not goingto get your moneyback,’” she said.
But what about thecontract which says shehas five days in which tocancel? “They said itdidn’t matter,” she said.
I called but couldn’tget any answers fromthat law firm so toldSpencer to file a com-plaint with the OhioAttorney General. Shedid, and now the compa-ny has contacted herpromising to return hermoney because she nev-er used the retainer.
Spencer is going torepresent herself indealing with her bankfor that mortgage mod-ification. She wants towarn everyone to becareful if you get suchan offer of assistancefrom people who claimto be with a law firm.

Kalie Kaimann andAaron Marshall said au-diences will enjoy theenergy they see on stagewhen the CincinnatiYoung People’s Theatrepresents “Grease.”
Kaimann, a DelhiTownship teenwhoplaysSandy Olsen in the clas-sic show, andMarshall, aMilford teen who por-trays Danny Zuko, areamong the roughly 80teenagers who havebeen rehearsing thissummer for the musical,which marks the Cincin-nati Young People’sTheatre’s 31st annualproduction.
Based at the Covedale
Center for the Perform-ing Arts, the CincinnatiYoung People’s Theatre(CYPT) helps young per-formers between theages of 13 and 19 honetheir theater skills.
Kaimann, a SetonHigh School junior whois in her fourth yearwiththe program, said shewas introduced to CYPTby her voice teacher.
“I fell in love with it,”she said. “It’s the bestsummer program I’veever been involved in.”
Marshall said this ishis first yearwith the or-ganization, and it’s adream come true to playthe leading male role.
“I’ve always wantedto be in a production of‘Grease,’” he said. “I justreally love the theater,and I want to get intotheater as a career.”
Because “Grease”features several dancenumbers, director andCYPT founder Tim Per-rino brought in an alum-na of the program to cho-reograph the dancescenes.
Molly O’Brien Peters,a Delhi Township native,said she performed inthree CYPT shows whenshe was a teenager andshe’s thrilled to be backhelping a new genera-tion of performers puton an entertaining show.
“The energy I getfrom the kids is incredi-ble,” she said, addingthat she choreographed10 dance routines for theproduction.
“It’s a fun, high-ener-gy show.”
Since “Grease” issuch an iconic show andso many people haveseen the movie, Peterssaid the challenge has
been incorporating itsfamiliar dance numberswith her own ideas andtwists to make the chor-eography modern andrelevant to today’s teens.
“It’s been a lot of hardwork, but so much fun,”she said. “And it’s worthit when you see your vi-sion up on the stage andrealized with the kidshere. There is so muchtalent and I’m really ex-cited.”
Dancer Montana Hat-field, a Northern Ken-tucky resident enteringher freshman year atWestern Kentucky Uni-versity, said this is herthird year in CYPT andshe couldn’t pass up thechance tobe in “Grease.”
“Who doesn’t love‘Grease,’” she said. “Ithink when audiencessee 80 very talented kidsperforming it on stage,they are going to beblown away.”
Kaimann agreed withher fellow cast member.
“The energy in thisshow is outstanding,”she said. “The audiencehas fun when the per-formers on stage arehaving fun, and we aredefinitely having fun.”
The teenswill present“Grease” from Friday,July 26, through Sunday,Aug. 4, at the Covedaletheater, 4990 GlenwayAve.
Tickets are $20 forgold seats, $14 for adults,$12 for senior citizensand college students and$10 for high school stu-dents and younger.

Beginning this fall, theClinical Research pro-gram at the University ofCincinnati Blue Ash Col-lege is doubling the num-ber of classes to accom-modate more students.
Clinical research is aone-year certificate pro-gram designed for work-ing professionals whowant to advance their ca-reer in clinical researchcoordination, clinical datamanagement, safety, reg-ulatory affairs, or qualityassurance. Students whoenroll should have a bach-elor’s degree or previousexperience in clinical re-search.
The program has beengrowing in popularity andwas at capacity last year,with more than 25 stu-dents. This year therewillbe additional course of-ferings that providemoreoptions for student, offer-ing in person and hybridoptions. The hybridcourses provide a mix of
online classes with threein-person classes per se-mester.
King attributes the in-creased demand to wordofmouthabout thequalityof the Clinical Researchprogram. Several compa-nies have sent their cur-rent employees orrecruited new staffthrough theprogramoverthe past 14 years with ex-cellent results.
Wendy Shoger, direc-torofclinical researchde-velopment for Apex Eyein Cincinnati, has found itto be a great resource.
“We have developed aflexible, part-time ap-prentice program wherewe have attracted severalstudents from theClinicalResearch program at UCBlue Ash,” she said.“Compared to academicand hospital-based re-
search, we are smaller,but still need high-qualityresources. This programhas been a win/win forboth.”
MeredithDees is a reg-ulatory specialist II forCTI Clinical Trial andConsulting Services,which is headquartered inBlue Ash.
“While I have a BS andMS in Biology, I had littleexperience in the field ofclinical research. Thisprogram helped me un-derstand what goes into aclinical research studyfromall levels –site, spon-sor, and a Contract Re-search Organization,”Dees said.
For more informationabout the Clinical Re-search program at UCBlue Ash College, contactKaren King at 513-745-5617 [email protected]. Theapplication deadline forthe 2013 fall semester atUC Blue Ash is July 15.
