COLERAIN TOWNSHIP —Firefighterswill be sleeping alittle easier in the communi-ty’s firehouses thanks to a do-nation from the Fellowship ofChristian Paramedics.
Fire Chief Bruce Smithsaid the department received
a donation of45 Tempur-Pedic mat-tresses fromthe group as adonation.
“That’s avalue of about$30,000,” thechief said.“This group
doesa lotofgreatworkfor thefire service.”
Smith said Colerain fire-fighter Tim Findley ap-proached the organizationabout the donation, which re-placed the mattresses in thefirehouses’ bunk rooms.
The Fellowship of Chris-tian Paramedics Inc., based inLexington, KY., seeks to sup-port emergency medical per-sonnel.
The group’s website saidits mission is to provide sup-port, both physical and spirti-ual, to fellowChristians in thefield of Emergency MedicalService, and asChristians, ex-ercise their faith and biblicalprincipals in the workplace.
Charles E. Harris Jr., whofounded the group, said hepartnered up with the Tem-pur-Pedic firm in 2009, and to-gether, they havemade it pos-sible to get new mattressesinto firehouses all over thecountry.
“It’s all word of mouth,”Harris said. “I don’t advertisethe program. One firehousegets them, and they tell otherfirefighters and it just spreadthat way. It’s something wecan do. A lot of their budgetsdon’tallowforneedslikethis.”
Themattressesareinplaceand are being put to good use.
“Mattresses wear out overtime,” Assistant Chief RickNiehaus said. “Ourswere get-ting to the point where theywere breaking down and hadto think about replacing them.The timing could not havebeen better from our point ofview.”

The Mount HealthyCity School DistrictBoard of Education ac-cepted the resignation ofboard president SteveHorton Aug. 30 and willnowapproach candidatesrunning for the board inNovember to see if onewants to fill Horton’s un-expired term.
Kimberly A. Bouldin-Bryant, Thomas Kuhnsand Julie Turner are allnew candidates for the
board in November. In-cumbents Carole Ellisand Emmett Kilgore arealso running.
Horton,who joined theboard in 2012, is resign-ing to take a job with theOhio School Board Asso-ciation in Columbus as aboard services consult-ant. He is stepping downbecause staying on theboard would be a conflictof interest since the OS-BA works with schoolboards. He’s also movingto the state capital.
“I am very excited
about mynew posi-tion,” Hor-ton said. “Iwill beworkingdirectlywithboards ofeducation
and administratorsacross the state. It is asubject I am passionateabout and fits very wellwith my strongest skillset, which is workingwith and educatingadults. It was an opportu-
nity I could not pass up.”Mount Healthy Super-
intendent Lori Handlersays while it’s a great op-portunity for Horton, sheis sad to losehimfromtheboard.
“He brought so muchto the board,” she said.“But this new job is a per-fect fit, andwe are happyfor him and his family.He will be missed.”
Horton, 51, said he ini-tially ran for the boardbecause he felt havingchildren attending dis-trict schools gave him an
important connection tothe buildings and staff.Hehada life long connec-tion to the district, hav-ing graduated fromMount Healthy HighSchool in 1980.
“My heart will alwaysbe with the MountHealthy City Schools andthe Mount Healthy com-munity,” he said. “Serv-ing on the board for thelast two years has beenan enriching experienceandone that Iwill cherishas I move forward in mynew career.
“While choosing towork with OSBA was aneasy decision, the re-quirement that I must re-sign my current seat wasextremely difficult. It ismy sincere hope that theboard can find a betterperson to fill the remain-der of my term.”
Handler said boardpolicywould allow the re-maining board membersto appoint someone toserve for the two unex-pired years of SteveHor-ton’s current term.

“It was outdated andgetting a little long in thetooth,” he said.
Removing the old play-ground creates space forthe additional picnic area,he said.
“It will really open upthe park,” he said. “I thinkit’s going tomake abig dif-ference.”
The new picnic areawill also feature shadesails to block the sun.
Glenn Caminiti, thetownship’s park servicesdirector, said the township
spent about two yearsplanninganddesigningtheupgrades for VeteransPark.
“Wemade sure tomakeeveryone who uses thepark happy,” he said. “Ithink it’s turned out reallynice.”
Walnut Grove Con-struction Inc. installed thenew playground and safe-tysurfaces,andScottRanzConstruction Inc. did theconcrete work.
Boiman said townshipmaintenance employeesalsohelpedwitha lotof thework.
“I love the fact ourguystake pride in their workand our parks,” he said. “Itwas important for them tobeinvolvedintheproject.”

Operation School Bell, asignature program of Assis-tance League ofGreaterCin-cinnati, has an average of 55students in need, kindergar-ten through fifth-grades, ar-riving daily to be fitted fornew school uniforms, shoesand additional basic and nec-essary clothing items.
Many parents could notimagine sending their chil-dren off to school with ill-fit-tingclothes, shoesor onedai-ly outfit for the entire year,yet more than 1,800 studentsannually walk through thedoors of Assistance Leagueto be fitted
Imagine being in a lotteryin hopes of getting a newuni-formforschool.Currently90volunteer members belong-ing toanorganizationwithnopaid staff have managed toclothe more than 13,300 chil-dren since the inception ofthe program, beginning thefirst year with 100 studentsand building to now morethan 1,800 per year.

fromroomto roomwithdiffer-ent classmates in each sub-ject.
She likes the food she’s hadsince arriving last month, butis especially fond of macaroniand cheese.
Daniela is staying with thefamily of McAuley seniorEmily Knollman, the daughterof Edward and Joanne Knoll-man of Mount Airy.
“Daniela is like my sister.We get along really well andwe like the same food,” Emilysaid.
“We do our homework to-gether so I can help her andshe is teaching me some Por-tuguese.”
Daniela is happy, too,though she is a little homesickfor her parents and brother.

COLLEGE HILL — If the 2013McAuley soccer team seems abit closer than teams in thepast,it’s no coincidence.
The Mohawks boast threesets of sisters on the roster thisyear,which has brought a close-ness coach Melissa Framptonhas not seen in her five yearswith the team.
“It makes a huge differencefor the other girls on the team,”she said. “They see those rela-tionshipsand that closenessandI feel like that’s been the differ-enceforus thisyear.Thesegirlsare tight.”
Abby and Allie Schindler,alongwithMorgan andMcKen-na Bailey are the elders of thegroup with Abby being a seniorand the rest being juniors. Syd-ney and Sophia Hamilton arethe youngsters, as Sydney is asophomore and Sophia is just afreshmen.
All the girls have played soc-
cer together for many years,but for the Bailey sisters – whoare identical twins – the waythey approach their family“competition” is anything butidentical.
“It’s definitely been interest-ing in terms of making certainteams,” Morgan said. “You al-ways want to do better than
yoursisterandwant tocompareto her. I think it’s friendly com-petition and we always pusheach other to do better.”
McKenna – who said the sis-ters have been playing togethersince they were four – likes tohavethesupportsystemandthefamiliarity factor when itcomes to Morgan.
“It makes it easier to play,”she said. “Just playing witheach other on the field lets youknow where each other are go-ing to be at.”
Some of the best momentshave come when one of the sis-ters finds the back of the net.WhenAbbynettedher first goalin a 2-0 win over Kings last sea-
son themomentwas just as spe-cial for Allie.
“I remember that day proba-bly as well as she does,” the ju-nior said. “It was huge.We cele-brate the victories and mournthe losses with each other.”
A similar moment came ear-lier this season when Sophiascored against Lakota West tonotch her first high school goal.
“I think I teared up a little bitbecause it was her first goal,”Sydney said.
While the individual mo-ments are special, it will bemanyyearsdowntheroadwhenthe sisters are able to look backand reflect on these yearswhere they shared so manymemories together.
“I think it’s always nice tohave your sister (with you) be-cause there is always someonethere that goes through whatyou go through,” Sophia said.“Theyare there to lookup to, es-pecially because (Sydney) isolder than me, and we can talkabout things.”

MONFORT HEIGHTS — DerekKief owes his stepfather a gi-gantic thank you.
After spending years as arunning back, the La Salle sen-ior wide receiver said fiveyears ago hewasn’t surewheth-er he wanted to continue hisfootball career.
As of Sept. 7, he was just 125yards away from becoming theLancers’ all-time leading re-ceiver and is committed to theUniversity of Alabama, a teamthat has won back-to-back na-tional championships.
“My stepdad told me I hadgreat potential at receiver,”Kiefsaid. “I justdecidedtoplay.… My first game (at La Salle) Iwent out there and had a 130-yard game with two touch-downs and said, ‘I probablyhave a chance at doing this.’ I’mstill thanking (my stepdad) tothis day.”
A lot of his motivation camefrom the man he is chasing forthe receiving yards record,Matt Woeste. The former Lanc-er set the record of 1,710 yardsin 2010 when Kief was just afreshman.
“It would show that all myhard work came to good use,”the senior said of breakingWoeste’s record. “It’s really anhonor to pass such a great play-er. I lookedup tohimwhenIwasjust a freshman and I remem-
berwhenhebroke the record. Itwould be a great accomplish-ment.”

COLERAIN TWP. —What a dif-ference one year makes.
Aftergoing0-13-4 in2012, theNorthwest soccer team is off toa 4-2-0 start in 2013 and coachKennyGoodinbelieveshis teamshould have an even better rec-ord.
“Just better attitudes, greatleaders and complete teamplay,” Goodin said of what hasled to the good start. “HonestlyI’m not surprised with the turn-around. I’m more surprisedwith thecoupleof loses. I feltwewere the better team in the twogames, but it is what it is. Youwin some, you lose some.”
Colton Lipps has10 goals andseven assists through the firstsix games, while Willie Cun-ningham has five goals and
three assists. Goalkeeper JeffKaczmarek has one shutout andallowed just three goals in theKnights’ four wins.
Travis Timler, ConnorHorneand Jayme Ahr have combinedfor five goals and seven assiststo add to aKnights offensive at-tack that has scored 21 goals onthe season.
“The guys have really solidi-fied success through hardworkand dedication to the team,”Goodin said.
The difference is leaps-and-bounds from last season whenthe Knights found the back ofthe net 20 times all season.
“They are ecstatic to be partof this program,” the coach saidof his players. “With continuedhard work and dedication, I’mreally excited to seewhere theycan take this program.”
You can see the improve-
ment just by looking atwhat theKnights have done againstteams they’ve played in both2012 and ’13. Last season theylost to Deer Park 4-1, Ross 6-2,Taylor 2-1 and Wilmington 4-1.This season they beat all four ofthose teams by a combinedscore of 17-4.
The Knights are 2-1 in theSouthwestOhioConferenceandcurrently in fourth place just agame behind conference-lead-ing Edgewood, whom theKnights lost to 3-2 Aug. 24.While they won’t see the Cou-gars again this season, Goodinsees nothingbut good things forhis team in the future.
“With the attitude we havenowand thekidswehave, it’s al-ways positive and we alwayswant to get better,” he said. “Isee nothing but success in ourfuture.”

MaxBiermanwent to Vegas.He was not going there to
party, but there might havebeen a celebration. Bierman, a2010 St. Xavier High Schoolgraduate fromWhite Oak, com-peted in the Ironman70.3WorldChampionship.
The half-triathlon took placeSept. 8 at Lake Las Vegas inHenderson, Nev., after thePress deadlines. It was Bier-man’s first competition againstIronman competitors from allover the world.
“It should be pretty eye-opening,” the Air Force Acad-emy senior said before he left.“I’m really looking forward toit.”
He qualified for the worldchampionship by winning hisage group (18-24 year old men)
at the Ironman 70.3 in Muncie,Ind., July 13. It was his first agegroup victory in the 1.2-mileswim, 56-mile bike ride, and13.1-mile run event.
Bierman finished his firsttriathlon when he was just 12 atthe Greenhills YMCA. In high
school, he was a member ofsome very successful Bomberswim teams.Of the three sportsthat make a triathlon, swim-ming remains his strength.
“It is starting to even outmore,” said Bierman, “but Ihave a lot more time in the wa-ter than most people after 15years of swimming.”
After graduating from St.Xavier, Bierman enrolled in theU.S.AirForceAcademyinColo-rado. He had thoughts of walk-ingonto theFalconsswimteam,but that did not pan out. Thatwas not the end of his time as astudent-athlete, however. TheAcademy has a club triathlonteam,whichcompeteswithclubteamsfromcollegesanduniver-sities across the country.
“I had a friend on the triath-lon club,” Bierman said. “Thatwasmybackupplan if I couldn’twalk on to the swim team.”
In the offseason, Biermancompetes on his own. AfterqualifyingforVegasbywinningMuncie, he competed in the Ca-nadian Ironman in Whistler,British Columbia. Between Oc-tober and April, he competeswith his Air Force Academyclub teammates. There areabout 25 people on the teameach year; when the team com-petes in national events, sevenmen and seven women repre-sent the Falcons. The teamplacedsixthatnationals inTem-pe, Ariz., last year. The top fiveteams each year medal.
“We’re looking to get on thepodium this year,” said Bier-man.
While he was familiar withtriathlons, he did not knowabout the intensity of the col-lege club circuit until he joinedthe Falcons team. The teamtrains together asmuch as their
schedules permit.“It was a nice surprise that
it’s more structured competi-tion, which I like,” said Bier-man.
The daily physical trainingthat comes with being a cadetcomplements triathlon train-ing. While it is difficult to findtime train, based on the rigor-ous and demanding schedule ofthe Academy, Bierman hasfoundways to steadily improve.
“The cadet training andtriathlon training overlap morethan I thought they would,which is nice,” he said. “Being acadet makes it a little harder toget training time in, and jug-gling three sports is really diffi-cult. I try to take advantage of30 minutes here, 45 minutesthere.”
Bierman has found the timeto train and made the most of itthis year.

Despite being otherteam’s main target on de-fense anddealingwith the

Keeping governments fiscally accountableWith the recent municipal
bankruptcies of Stockton, CA,and most recently, Detroit, Ifelt it necessary to researchthe financial health of Ohio’spolitical subdivisions.
Based on the most recentinformation from State Audi-tor David Yost, there are 24local governments, includingone county in Ohio, that are infiscal emergency. This in-cludes the cities of GarfieldHeights, Mansfield and EastCleveland; three cities that arein fiscal watch, including Lo-rain, Norwood and Ports-mouth; and four jurisdictionsthat are in fiscal caution, in-cluding the cities of Akron andChillicothe. Further, Moody’shas recently downgraded thebond rating of the city of Cin-cinnati.
There are multiple reasonsthat local jurisdictions are in
financial diffi-culty, includ-ing the GreatRecession, thereduction ofthe state’sLocal Govern-ment Fund, theelimination ofthe estate taxand question-able financial
decisions made at the localgovernment level.
The state government ofOhio is bound by conditions ofthe Ohio Constitution to main-tain a balanced budget, limitits total public debt and main-tain a strict actuarial standardfor the funding of public pen-sion funds. In the case of fiscaldiscipline, I believe that allpolitical jurisdictions in ourstates should be subject toOhio’s constitutional standards
for financial responsibility.Therefore, at the beginning ofthe fall session of the legisla-ture, I will introduce the Fi-nancial Responsibility in Gov-ernment Act.
The proposed legislationwould include the followingfinancial requirements forOhio’s political subdivisions:
» All governmental sub-divisions in the state will berequired to operate their annu-al budgets without deficitspending. The balanced budgetrequirement applicable to thestate under the Ohio Constitu-tion will also apply to all of thestate’s political subdivisions.
» Indebtedness undertakenby any political subdivision inOhio must comply with thetotal indebtedness and debtfunding requirements that areapplicable to the State of Ohio.
» All political subdivisions
of the State of Ohio who spon-sor any type of public pensionplan must comply with theactuarial requirements thatare currently in place for theState of Ohio.
The overall intent of thisproposed legislation is to en-sure that all of Ohio’s politicalsubdivisions operate in a fis-cally prudent manner, main-tain balanced budgets, avoidindebtedness levels that wouldjeopardize future budgetedservice levels, and protect thepensions of public employeeswho anticipate some level ofpension benefit.
Municipal bankruptcieshurt not only the political enti-ty going through bankruptcyand its local residents; theyalso negatively affect the eco-nomic health of the region.State resources are stretchedthin because of new unemploy-
ment claims, added healthcare costs, and a whole host ofsocial services. We in the legis-lature have an obligation toprotect all of our constituents.
I understand this is a del-icate issue that crosses partylines. When the legislaturereconvenes in the fall, I lookforward to receiving inputfrom my colleagues and in-terested parties. I also wel-come any suggestions you allmay have on improvements tothis proposed legislation.

“I am happy to join withyou today in what will godown as the greatest demon-stration for freedom in thehistory of our nation.”
That’s howMartin LutherKing opened his “I Have aDream” speech on Aug. 28,1963. National civil rightsleaders had called for 100,000to march onWashington forfreedom and jobs soon afterPresident Kennedy sent hiscivil rights bill to Capitol Hill.Cincinnati activists helpedKing’s prediction come true.
Abysmal race relationsdefined the South andmuchof the North. Cincinnati, justnorth of state-mandated seg-regation, hadmade somenotable gains. African-Amer-ican leaders had pressureddowntown restaurants andConey Island to integrate, andwere now focused on endingdiscriminatory housing.
Local leaders like Clyde“Jimmy” Vinegar of CORE,William Bowen of theNAACP, and future Cincin-nati Mayor Ted Berry led acontingent of about 500 to thenation’s capital. “Themarchwill give witness that theNegro is united in America,”Berry told the Enquirer in1963. The Rev. Fred Shuttles-worth hadmoved here, butcontinued the intense fight inhis native Birmingham.
Amix of African-Amer-ican citizens, white clergyand others boarded a special-ly arranged train at UnionTerminal. They packed twobox lunches and prepared forpossible violence. They sangfreedom songs along the way,and picked up additionaldemonstrators near Ports-mouth and Ashland, Ken-tucky.
“The train ride gave ussuch a warm, friendly feel-ing,” recalls Patricia Hogue(widow of University of Cin-cinnati Bearcat basketballplayer Paul Hogue) and asenior at Central State Uni-versity at the time. Donationsto the local NAACP enabledher to attend. “It was themost wonderful experience.”
It is adream deeplyrooted in theAmericandream.
Would thiscrew facedanger?Would themarch haveany real im-pact? Couldthe civil
rights bill become law? TheCincinnati Post and TimesStar editorialized, “We favorthe public accommodationssection of the civil rights billbut think reformwill comealmost as fast without a lawas with it.” Both of Ohio’ssenators, Frank Lausche andStephen Young, declined aninvitation to attend. The un-certainty is what made it adream.
“Wewere the first train toarrive at Union Station,”recalls Hogue, “and we weresome of the first to make it totheWashingtonMonument.”They got a close view of Pe-ter, Paul, andMary, HarryBelafonte, and Joan Baez.Later in the day, at the otherend of the reflecting pool,spoke A. Phillip Randolph,Shuttlesworth, and of coursethe headliner, Dr. King. Pressreports and recollections bylocal participants paint theday as “glorious,” “wonder-ful,” “peaceful,” and “promis-ing.”
Themarch ended as anapparent success. In total,200,000 attended. Most Cin-cinnati marchers returnedhome that evening. An in-tense debate on the bill, theassassination of its chiefsponsor, and increased presscoverage followed. A yearlater, Kennedy’s successorsigned the bill with King andother leaders standing behindhim to help fulfill the dream.
“Free at last! Free at last!Thank God almighty, we arefree at last.”

Sept. 4 questionDo you think the U.S. is safer
now that it was 12 years ago, be-foretheSept.11attacks?Whatdoyou most remember about thatday?
“I flew into Newark Airportin August of 2001, a few weeksprior to 9/11. While landing Ihad a great view of the WorldTrade Center’s two towers asthey were across the HudsonRiver. I believe the govern-ment agencies are doing an ad-equate job of protecting theU.S. from terrorists.
“The reality is these terror-ist psychopaths are like rats ina sewer; hard to find and hardto eliminate.
“It amazes me these Jiha-dists etc., who hate the U.S. somuch just keep migrating tothis country and leaving theirsupposed utopias. I feel cau-tiously safer but I have notflown since 9/11. Go Figure!”
T.D.T.
“I thinkwewouldbenaive tobelieve this country is any saf-er now than before Sept. 11. Wejust had the Boston marathonbombing, and why would acountygiveasylumtoaspyandthen we have all the anti-gov-ernment groups.
“I think often about Sept. 11and the impact it had on myfamily. I was one of the luckyones on an airplane that morn-ing, heading to Minneapolis,when they announced we weremaking an unscheduled stopbutnothingwaswrongwithourplane.
“First they said wewould bestopping in Chicago and then itwas Indianapolis. My workpager was going off like crazywith my mom, husband, kids,co-works trying to reach me tosee where I was. I called myhusband and could tell he wascrying, asking me ‘where areyou?’ I told himwemade a stopin Indianapolis and that’s whenhe told me the U.S. was underattack and they were clearingair space.
“Then I heard about the theother planes crashing intobuildings and a field. I couldn’tbelieve what I was hearing,started crying becomingfrightened for the first time inmy life. I shared the news withthe flight attendants who im-mediately told the pilots. Theywerenot aware ofwhywewereasked to land just to land.
“Every Sept. 11, I thank Godfor blessing me, but my heartgoes out to the family andfriends of those less fortunatethanme.
“However, I have never got-ten over being afraid on thisday. Idon’t goanywhereandes-pecially to work in downtownCincinnati.
“I work on the corner of 5thand Walnut where two largebanks sit along with the Feder-al Courthouse and their officeson the other two corner-s...prime location for a terror-ist attack.
“Wecanonlyhope thatwedobecome a stronger country forthe sake of our children andgrandchildren!”
S.M.
“No, I don’t think we’re saf-er. We have a president who ismuch more interested in hispersonal popularity and vaca-tions than taking care of ourcountry.
“To be fair about it, I don’tthinkhe’scapableof thejobanddoesn’t have the sense to ap-point people who are.
“I pray that we get throughthe next three years withoutanother 9-11.”
J.K.
“We probably are safer thanwe were 12 years ago, but it’sthekindof statistic that is diffi-cult to quantify because of po-litical bickering and ignoranceof most of the public.
“It’s also true that many at-tacksmay have been thwarted,but thekindofworkbycounter-intelligence people that pre-vents them is secret and un-knowntomostofus.That’swhyit’s generally ‘classified.’
“I remember being in myclassroom teaching my sev-enth grade a story that hadManhattan as its setting andworrying the military mightshoot down the jet over Penn-sylvania before it circled backaround toWashington.”
TRog
“Personally I never felt un-safe before or after 9-11. It wasa tragedy, but when you areraised practicing hiding underyour desk because of a nuclearattack you tend to take theevent with a different perspec-tive.
“When it occurred I was inmyhomeoffice.Mywifeyelledand my immediate commentupon seeing it on TVwas that itwas Bin Laden.
“I told her that PresidentClinton had warned the incom-ing administration towatch outfor him, but they ignored himon that and just about every-thing else due to their arro-gance. The second plane con-firmedmy supposition.”
J.Z.
“Yes, if your question asksabout ‘from foreign terrorists.’No, if your question asks about‘from our re-elected leaders.’
“Whiledeeplysaddenedthatday and for some period afterthat day, the bombers knewthey could ruin our country ifthey couldmake our re-electedofficials run amok with ourfreedoms ... obviously, this hashappened. It’s my biggest fear,and it is ongoing.”
K.P.
“The Homeland SecurityAct is oneof thebiggestRepub-lican slush funds in history.Anyonewho looks at the expen-ditures will be depressed bythe wastedmoney.
“Hiring people to look atyour underwear is not makingyou safer.Andmost of themon-ey goes to Republican contrib-utors, not the idiots you see atthe airport. Israel accom-plishes greater security with-out body scans.
“I can’t get over the way theRepublicans have hijacked theissue of personal security.They increase personal insecu-rity by passing gun laws whichallowmorons to obtain guns.
“Weall know that theNRA isan effective influence on Con-gress, but howmany of us real-ize that the NRA is simply andexclusively a lobbying frontfor gunmanufacturers?
“We cannot be effective ifwe do not use the brains wehave been endowed with. Thealternative is a declining hu-man intelligence.

“Life happens

unexpected
of times.”
Boomer Esiason, 2013spokesperson for LifeInsurance Awareness Month,learned at the age of 7 that noone is guaranteed a tomorrowwhen his mother passed awayfrom cancer without Lifeinsurance.

Itwasn’t an easy life for any ofthem, but Boomer nowrealizes that Life insurance isabout protecting the futureand the people you love.
Life is full of changes andchallenges. The right Lifeinsurance coverage can help youplan ahead for whatever mayhappen, both expected andunexpected. Call or visit yourlocal Pekin Insurance® Agencytoday about the wide range ofLife insurance products that willprotect those that you love.

Every cloud has asilver lining. There’s areason for everything.Being challenged in lifeis inevitable, being de-
feated isoptional.Our familyfriend,Ruth AnnAshburn,could havequotedthese say-ings aftera stormwreckedhavoc with
two of her favorite trees:A maple she raised froma sapling and the tallestwild cherry tree I’veever seen. My husband,Frank, and I went over tohelp. Frank brought hissaw and tackled thesmaller limbs. The pro-fessionals came in for therest. The silver lininghere is we now have agood amount of woodaging for next year.
The storm alsoknocked a lot of our ap-ples off our trees, so Ihad to use the fallen onesup. Granddaughter Evaand I made applesaucefor her little sister, Emer-son. She washed the ap-ples and I chunked themup for the slow cooker. Ialso dehydrated someapples and have appleleather/rollups drying inthe sun. Check my blogfor those recipes plusphotos.
Chris Lipnick’s appleblossom cake
Chris, a Kentuckyreader, immigrated tothis country fromGer-many. Chris, like mydaughter-in-law Inge, is
an expert baker. Chrisshared this recipe a whileback and I get requestsfor it when apple seasonrolls around. A moist and“good keeper” cake. “Ev-eryone wants the recipe,”Chris told me.

Kathy L.’s poorman’s lobster
I knew I could counton you! A reader who hadlost her recipe and washoping beyond all hopethat I could help find itrequested this. “I’vemade this quite a bitalthough not recently.
This recipe is probably atleast 20 years old. Since Idusted this off, I think Iwill fix it again soon,”Kathy said.
1 lb. cod frozen, thawedenough to cut (about 1hour at roomtemperature)
2 cups water3 tablespoons cider vinegar2 teaspoons salt3 tablespoons butter1⁄2 teaspoon paprika

I’ve received severale-mails recently claimingto come from the postoffice and Federal Ex-press telling me theywere unable to deliver apackage.
The e-mails look sus-picious and, upon check-ing, I’ve learned I’m oneof many people receivingthem.
Two such e-mailscame in August, alleged-ly from the United StatesPostal Service, askingme to download and printout a label, then take it atthe nearest post office.Fortunately, I didn’t dothat because it couldhave caused big prob-lems.
Federal Express has awarning on its websitesaying scammers areusing its corporate logo,
colors andlegal dis-claimers tomake themappearauthentic.But it saysthis is alljust a scamto trickyou intodivulging
your personal or accountinformation. Scammerscould try to get you tosend themmoney or dosomething else that willresult in you gettingdefrauded.
FedEx says thesee-mail attacks have beengoing on for the past fewyears because they arelow-tech and can easilybe deployed on a massivescale. These so-called“phishing” scams con-
tinue to fool people – andsome contain a virus thatwill be unleashed on yourequipment if you down-load anything they send.That virus can be used tosteal personal informa-tion from your computer.
FedEx says the mainthing the scammers wantis to collect user-names,passwords, Social Securi-ty numbers, and creditcard details. ConsumerReports says one of itsstaffers received one ofthese e-mails last yearwhich stated he’d have topay a fee if he failed toact.
Like FedEx, the U.SPostal Service has awarning on its websiteabout e-mails claiming tobe from the postal ser-vice seeking online post-age charges or telling of
attempted or interceptedpackage deliveries. Post-al officials say youshould delete these mes-sages without takingfurther action. It says,“The Postal InspectionService is working hardto resolve the issue andshut down the maliciousprogram.”
Remember, neitherFedEx nor the post officewill send you an e-mail.If they need you, they’lldrop a note off at yourhome or send you a let-ter. They have your ad-dress, but not your e-mailinformation.

Every neighborhoodneeds a James Emmer-son.
When something wentwrongor someoneneededhelp in theColerainTown-ship community of Sky-line Acres where he livedfor 30 years, Mr. Emmer-songot right on thephone.Didn’t matter if it was aburned-out street light, anabandoned car, a downedpower line or a fundraiserfor the world-championdouble Dutch jump-ropeteams at his beloved Sky-line Community Center.He knew the right peopleto call.
“When I was in office,”recalled Bernie Fiedel-dey, a former ColerainTownship trustee, “Jamescalled me six out of theseven days of the week.He knew how to rufflefeathers.Buthealsoknewhow to get things done tohelp thepeople inhiscom-munity. And, he neverwanted any recognitionfor what he did. He justwanted results. As he al-ways used to say beforehegotoff thephone: ‘Hey!
I pay taxes, too.’”Whenhespotted illegal
activity in his working-class neighborhood, Mr.Emmerson called Lt.Mark Schoonover, theHamilton County Sher-iff’s deputy then servingas Skyline’s liaison offi-cer, now the sheriff’schief deputy.
“If we had one JamesEmmerson in everyneighborhood,” Schoo-nover told the Enquirer in2011, “there wouldn’t be
any crime.”Someone else is going
to have to make thosecalls for Skyline Acres.Mr. Emmerson died Aug.29. TheArmyveteran andretired Cincinnati PublicSchools exterminatorwas63.
“My father was a pro-tector,” said his daughter,Tasha Cummingsof Cole-rain Township. “He be-lieved that your job is totake care of your parents,to take care of your fam-
ily, to take care of yourcommunity.”
Mr. Emmerson per-formed his communitywork while quietly serv-ing as the primary care-giver forhiswife,Audrey,who suffers from severediabetes, and his mother-in-law, Helen R. Bates,who has Alzheimer’s. Hedidnot complain about hislot in life or ask for acco-lades.
“I look in themirrorev-ery day,” he once told theEnquirer. “If you have totake care of someone, youjust do it.”
For the last five years,Mr. Emmerson spent hun-dreds of unpaid hourstracking down new andused bicycles to give toneighborhood children atthe Skyline CommunityCenter just before Christ-mas. “If you give a child abike, you give a sense offreedom, a sense of prideandasenseof responsibil-ity,”hesaid ina2008 inter-view. “You get the kid in-volved in the community
instead of mischievousthings.”
In the fall of 2012, hemade many calls in hopesof keeping the Skylinecenter open despite around of township budgetcuts. It closed Dec. 31,2012. So, he made morecalls to make the center’sfateknowthroughoutCin-cinnati. The center re-opened in Februarythanks to the efforts offormer Cincinnati Ben-gals placekicker DougPelfrey.
Mr. Emmerson ex-plained why he went tosuch efforts for his com-munity.
“You justcan’tgohomeand go to sleep,” he said.
“When it comes to helpingpeople, to moving thecommunity forward, Ihave no ‘off’ switch.”
In addition to Mr. Em-merson’s daughter, wid-ow, and mother-in-law,survivors include hissons, Walter Rice of Nor-wood and Robert Cum-mings CQ of PleasantRidge, his brother,Dennisof Chester, S.C. as well as11 grandchildren andthree great-grandchil-dren.
