Sycamore Township couldadd another police officer fo-cused on drug-related crime.
Trustees are expected tomove forward with a supple-mental police protection con-tract with the Hamilton Coun-ty Sheriff’s Office for anotherdeputy.
The additional officer is as-sociated with the RegionalNarcotics Unit program andwould cost township taxpayers$102,362 for a one-year con-tract, Township AdministratorGreg Bickford said.
Trustee Cliff Bishop said hesupports adding another offi-cer.
“There is a severe drug epi-demic right now, and heroin isspreading like wildfire,” hesaid. “The only way to keep itout of our community is to beproactive. I think it’s a greatidea to have someone specifi-cally assigned to keep it incheck.”
Sycamore would likely usetax money collected from itsvoter-approved joint economicdevelopment zones (JEDZ) topay for the new officer.
The contract fee covers acorporal and fringe benefits,Bickford said, and thecounty Sheriff’s Office paysfor the patrol car, equipment,officer overtime and similaritems.
“This would be a great op-
portunity to reinvest some ofour JEDZ money back into thedistricts,” Trustee Tom Weid-man said.
“When we had the Drake is-sue,wehad (regional narcoticsunit officers) in there takingcare of it. It’s a great opportu-nity for us to stay ahead of thegame from a crime stand-point.”
The Drake Motel, 8109Reading Road, had long beenknown for drug and prostitu-tion activity and was raided bypolice in May 2013.
A fewmonths later, Aug. 27,a Hamilton County CommonPleas Court judge ordered itclosed for a year, the most al-lowed under Ohio law.

Though the city of Madeirahas been mulling over what todo with its historic houses formonths, residents seem to notwant many changes.
About100 people gathered inthe Madeira Middle School caf-eteria Aug. 5 for a public meet-ing about the Hosbrook andMuchmore historic houses.
City Manager Tom Moellersaid the turnoutwaswhat he ex-pected and was pleased that somany people come to sharetheir opinions.
A similar meeting held forbusinesses in and around theMuchmore Historic Area,where the houses are located,drewonly fivebusinesses of the13 that were invited.
The city has owned the Hos-brook House, 7010 Miami Ave.,and the Muchmore House, 7014Miami Ave., since they weredeeded to the city by Cleo Hos-brook in 1989. The HosbrookHouse is rented to the MadeiraWoman’s Club, which operatesthe Clothes Closet, a second-hand clothing store. The Much-more House is rented to Cre-
ativities, an art and crafts stu-dio owned by Christine Parker.
About $157,000 worth of re-pairs are needed on the housesin the next five years and Ma-deira City Council has chargedthe Economic DevelopmentCommittee with making a rec-ommendation about whatshould be done with them.
The participants broke intotablesofabouteight to10peopleand discussed three questionsprovided by the Economic De-velopment Committee. All thegroups’ answerswere recordedand everyone was given fivestickers to place by the answersthey agreed with the most.
“This is not going to be a per-fect process. We have a lot ofdifferentpeoplewitha lotofdif-ferent opinions,” Moeller toldresidents at the start of themeeting.
The first question read,“What do you envision as idealuses for the city-owned proper-ties?”
Most residents said theywanted something to bring peo-ple into Madeira, while main-taining thehistoryof thearea.A

If you’ve read themostrecent Indian Hill VillageBulletin, you know that itcontains an article put to-gether by an advisoryconservation committeethat says pollutants havebeen found in villagestreams.
Indian Hill City Man-ager Dina Minneci saysthere is nohealth threat tovillage Water Works cus-tomers, who include resi-dentsof IndianHill,CampDennison, Terrace Parkand parts of ColumbiaTownship, Madeira, Mil-ford, Montgomery andSymmes Township.
“The village is ex-tremely confident in itsdrinking water quality asits source (the Little Mi-ami aquifer) is not relatedto the streams,” Minnecisaid.
“The village has itsown ground wells anddoesnot pullwater direct-ly from the streams.
“The village also hasnumerous test wellsaround our production
well field to monitor ...contaminates on a 24/7 ba-sis,” Minneci said.
The focus of the articlewritten by members ofthe Indian Hill GreenAreas Advisory Commit-tee and published in theBulletin, an online news-letter on the village web-site at www.ci.indian-hill.oh.us, is how peoplecan help reduce stormwa-terrunoffandkeeppollut-ants out of streams.
It includes a nod to a
long-running, water-qual-ity project involving theGreenacresFoundation inIndianHill andIndianHillHigh School students whoperiodically test villagestreams for contaminatesas well as materials suchas eroded soil, fertilizersandroadsalt that clog fishgills and block light toplants.

Do drink the waterBy Jeanne [email protected]
WATER SAFETY SUGGESTIONSHere are some suggestions the Indian Hill Green Areas
Advisory Committee makes in its Bulletin article:» Refrain from taking showers and running dishwashers
and washing machines during rainstorms so as not tooverload the stormwater system.» Use a permeable surface if you repave your driveway
so water is absorbed instead of being directed downhill.» Install rain barrels under your downspouts to collect
reusable rainwater for your gardens.» Create a rain garden or vernal pool to catch water that
collects in low-lying areas of your yard for the use ofplants, frogs, salamanders and turtles.» Rethink the amount of fertilizer you use on your lawn
and consider allowing some of your yard to grow freelywithout being manicured and irrigated.

There was a period justafter World War II, and beforeVietnam, when a gas stationattendant could support a fam-ily of four on 85 cents per hour(7 days per week); that isroughly $2,500 annually!
There were no food stamps;there were no anti-povertyprograms, as we know themtoday. If you needed moremoney, you got a second job.
Dwight Eisenhower waspresident for eight of thoseyears. You have Ike and con-gress to thank for every mileof freeway in the US. It wasthe largest public works pro-ject in the world.
The music was quite differ-ent: Perry Como – “Because,”VaughnMonroe - “Red RosesFor A Blue Lady,” Andrews

These cars could be re-paired and maintained with afew simple tools, at home, byalmost anyone who wanted to.They were relatively simple,inexpensive and safe.
Today, it is not possible for aminimumwage worker to earna living that will pay theirmodest expenses? Life hasbecome far more complex. Wehave much more regulation.
Our cars can no longer beserviced under a shade tree.Also, the dollar has greatlydepreciated, due to wars,waste and greed. The mini-mumwage has not kept upwith the devaluation of thedollar.
We need to increase theminimumwage to between $15and $20 per hour. In the ‘50sbread was 23 cents a loaf, gaswas 25 cents a gallon, and youcould rent a home in a safeneighborhood for $50 to $65/month.
Pumping gas is less workthan flipping burgers. Paythem a living wage! Increaseprices!

Thanking community forsupport
I would like to thank every-one in Madeira who supportedmy recent mission trip to Cos-ta Rica through their purchaseof MDR stickers and outrightdonations.
Also, a special thanks toCoffee Please and McCabeDo-It Center for selling thedecals for me. I appreciateeveryone’s support.
On my 10-day trip, I learneda lot about leadership and wasable to experience firsthandthe culture in Costa Rica. Imet many people includingCosta Rican families and theother 50-plus students fromaround the world who alsowent on the trip with me. TheCosta Rican people had such apositive and happy attitudeand they were so nice to us. Ialso got to disconnect from theoutside, home world and Irealized then howmuch tech-nology has been in my life, andhow I don’t need it all the time.
One of the projects Iworked on while I was therewas building a bridge. I dugdeep, wide holes for thebridge that is being put in
across an alley. Right now,whenever it rains the alleyfloods and the people of thesmall town can’t cross thealley to get to work or schooluntil the water level lowers.This leads to people losingwork and kids dropping out ofschool. This bridge will helpchange that, so during rainyseason, the kids can still go toschool and others can go to
work. It will make a largeimpact in that town once it isfinished.
My trip to Costa Rica wasdefinitely unforgettable. Igained a lot of insight into howpeople outside of my town liveand I will cherish the experi-ence the rest of my life.
Thank you again.Lydia Bruemmer

“My favorite destination atthe Banks is The Yard House,because, well, I guess I like tomeasure things. I find I fre-quent Newport on the Leveemuch more than the Banksbecause there is so muchmore to choose from. TheBanks is a nice attempt but itfails to deliver enough multi-faceted entertainment op-tions. Both places would bebetter served by offering freeparking.”

“I go to The Banks aboutonce a month. The Banks’location is perfect with theReds and Bengals nearby andthe Parks, the river walk andplenty of parking. My favoriteplace there is the MoerleinHouse as its overlooks theOhio River and Smale Park.
Based on what is going on atThe Banks it seems to haveeverything I need. I look for-ward to when it is complete asthe construction can causetraffic problems during Redsand Bengals games.

A bill recently signed intolaw by President Obama –the Workforce Innovationand Opportunity Act (WIOA)– will help stabilize our pub-lic workforce system andassist job seekers in gainingthe skills and training re-quired for the jobs of todayand tomorrow.
The act is a great exampleof bipartisanship in actionand will play a vital role ingetting more Ohioans back towork.
The Workforce Innovationand Opportunity Act con-tinues the important work ofthe Workforce InvestmentAct, the largest single sourceof federal funding for work-force development activitieswhich sends nearly $3 billioneach year to states includingOhio to help adults, displacedworkers and youth receiveskills training and get jobs.Workforce Innovation andOpportunity Act will alsosupport a network of thou-sands of one-stop employ-ment centers in the U.S. thatassist in job search supportand education. WorkforceInvestment Act has beenoverdue for reauthorizationand needed adjustment manytimes in the last 16 years dueto our changing economy.
The Workforce Innovationand Opportunity Act is ap-proved through 2020. It mod-ernizes and improves theWorkforce Investment Actby expanding access to tech-nology and digital literacyskills for adult learners, re-quiring more coordinationand integration of adult edu-cation services between stateworkforce development sys-tems and post-secondaryeducation and focusing onindustry partnerships fortraining and career pathwaydevelopment.
Through the new law,Ohio’s one-stop employmentcenters – OhioMeansJobs –will be able to continue toprovide free employment-related services to job seek-
ers and em-ployers suchas education-al work-shops, careercoaching andjob leads.Locally,OhioMeans-Jobs Cincin-nati-Hamil-ton Countywill also be
able to continue providingresidents with direct ser-vices such as free hiringevents, on-the-job training,transportation and literallythousands of job postings.
Other Workforce Innova-tion and Opportunity Actimprovements include:
» increases support forpeople with disabilities, al-lowing them to enter andremain in the competitiveworkforce.
» streamlines and consoli-dates programs to more stra-tegically align training, edu-cation and vocational reha-bilitation.
» improves outreach forout-of-school youth. Work-force Innovation and Oppor-tunity Act requires increasedfunding for dropout recoveryprograms and other strate-gies that help disconnectedyouth not only get back intoschool but also prepared forjobs and post-secondaryeducation.
Workforce Innovation andOpportunity Act is a steptoward enhanced job skillstraining across the U.S. Thislaw could be the impetus forgetting more job seekersequipped with the most in-demand skills necessary fortoday’s modern world.
Let’s salute the collab-orative efforts taken by ourelected leadership to growour workforce in this recov-ering economy.

AUGUST 13, 2014 • SUBURBAN LIFE • B3LIFE
During the early sum-mer months, we till andhoe the garden and evenpull up theweeds byhand.
Seems like forever be-foreanyofthegardenpro-duce is ready to eat, andthen all of a sudden, ev-erything is ripe. Hoeing,tilling and weeding take aback seat to harvesting.
Tomatoes,cucum-bers,squash,berries,corn, beansare all attheir peak.I need acrewjust tohelp har-vest!
But real-ly, I’m not complaining,because there is trulynothing like picking a ripetomato off the vine andbiting into it, juice run-ningdownmychinandall.Or snapping the ends offreshly picked greenbeansandeatinga fewas Igo.
If your garden is bear-ing abundantly, too, you’llappreciate the recipes I’msharing today.
Fresh tomato tartFriend Terry Halpin is
a busy nurse practitionerand she told me this was ahit at her house. Somefolks like to squeeze outpart of the juice and seedthe tomatoes before slic-ing so they’re not too juicyin the tart. The flour in thebottom of the crust helpsit stay crisp.
1piecrust1 tablespoon flour8oz.Mozzarella,Mon-
terey Jack or combo of
bothSalt and pepper to
taste1/2 to 1 cup mayon-
naise, regular or light(start out with 1/2 cup; iftoothicktospread,addabit more as needed)
3-4 tomatoes, sliced,enough tomake a layer
1nicebunchgreenon-ions, sliced thin
Handful of freshbasil,chopped, about 1/4 cupor so, or 2 scant tea-spoons dry
Preheat oven to 400.Prick crust and prebake10 minutes. Dust bottomwith flour. Mix cheese,
salt and pepper andmayo.Spread thin layer overcrust.Laytomatoslicesontop. Spread rest of cheesemixture over tomatoes.Sprinkle with green on-ions andbasil. Smooth top,pushing onions and basilinto cheesemixture. Bakeabout 20 minutes or untilpuffed and golden.
Warm Dijon potatosalad with greenbeans
I’ve mentioned beforethat I’ve worked withDave Lieberman, foodnetwork celebrity and
cookbook author. I likeDave’s recipes becausethey are easy and fun toserve. Here’s one of histhat I adapted only slight-ly. Iput thesaladonalargeoval platter instead of abowl. It was pretty and noone had to dig to get aspoonful of both potatoesand beans.
2-1/2 to 3 pounds Fin-gerling or small red po-tatoes
1 pound green beans,trimmed
1/2 generous cup realmayonnaise
2 generous table-spoons Dijonmustard
1 large shallotminced1/4 cup red wine vine-
gar or more to tasteSalt and pepper to
tasteHandful parsley,
choppedPlace potatoes in pot
and coverwith coldwater.Salt the water generously,bring toaboil andcookun-til the potatoes are forktender, about 15 minutesor so. Drain. Bring anoth-er pot of salted water to aboilandthrowthebeans injust for a minute or twountil they turn brightgreen. Strain and runthem under cold water to
stop the beans from cook-ing. In amixingbowl com-bine the remaining ingre-dients and whisk untilsmooth. Cut the potatoesin half lengthwise andthen into roughly 1 inchchunks. Cut beans in half.I like to cut themon thedi-agonal. Toss the potatochunksinthedressingandthen toss in the greenbeans and the parsley.Add salt and pepper totaste.
Grilling corn:Charlie, a Kentucky
reader, wondered how totell when his grilled cornin the husk was ready toeat. “I pull the husk backbut that’s a nuisance”, hesaid. Follow Cook’s Illus-trated tip: As soon as thehusk picks up the dark sil-houette of kernels and be-gins to pull away from thetip of the ear, it’s done.

B8 • SUBURBAN LIFE • AUGUST 13, 2014 LIFE
A group of UC BlueAsh College studentsspent part of their sum-mer learning, speaking,and even blogging inFrench.
Becoming immersedin the French languageand culture was the focusof the college’s studyabroadtrip inJunetoQue-bec City. The nine stu-dents and one professoralso spent time learningabout the rich history inthe region, visiting land-marks and trying outsome of the amazing res-taurants that are spreadthroughout the city.
Elizabeth Kinnison isan art history major fromMaineville who is alsostudyingFrenchaspartofher plans for a career ineducation. She says thestudy abroad experienceprovided her with a newlevel of confidence.
“Having to communi-cate in French all of thetime gave me the self-as-surance to just do it. Youaccept that you’re not go-ing to speak perfectly andyou might sound foolish,but that’s how everyonelearns.”
Between classes, thestudents visited a varietyof sites including the Hu-ron Indian Village, theMusee de la Civilisation,and La Citadelle – whichwas built in the early1800s and remains thelargest British fortifica-tion in North America.They also kept a blog andwere required tomake all
of their entries in French.Jody Ballah, assistant
professor of French atUCBlue Ash, led the QuebecStudy Abroad Programand pushed her studentsoutof theircomfortzones.
“It was a great trip andI came away really im-pressed with my stu-dents,” Ballah said. “Notonly did their proficiencyimprove in French, butthey all demonstrated in-creased confidence whentalking with native speak-ers in all contexts, includ-ingwhen theywere out bythemselves.”

Bethesda North Hos-pital and Good Samari-tan Hospital have beennamed two of the besthospitals nationally, andranked first and secondrespectively in the Cin-cinnati metro area byU.S. News andWorld Re-port.
The annualU. S.NewsBest Hospitals rankings,now in their 25th year,recognize hospitals thatexcel in treatingthemostchallenging patients. Inaddition,BethesdaNorthranked third overallamong hospitals in thestate of Ohio, while GoodSamaritan finished sev-enth.
“This prestigious hon-or speaks directly to the
skill and commitment ofthe physicians, nursesand staff of TriHealth aswe continue to provideexceptional care to ourcommunity and the pa-tients we serve,” Tri-Health President andCEO John Prout said.“We are proud to deliverworld-class care to ourpatients right here inCincinnati and both hon-ored and humbled whenour excellence in healthcare is recognized. Thisaward speaks to thestrength of theTriHealthsystem.”
For 2014-2015, U.S.News evaluated hospi-tals in16adult specialtiesand ranked the top 50 inmost of the specialties.
Just three percent of thenearly 5,000 hospitalsthat were analyzed forBest Hospitals in 2014-15earned national rankingin even one specialty.
“Consistently deliver-ing the right care at theright time in the rightplace allows us to earnnational awards like this,but more importantly,enables TriHealth tomeet the healthcareneeds of our communityeffectively andefficient-ly,” Prout said.
U.S. News also recog-nizes hospitals that per-form nearly at the levelof their nationallyranked peers and repre-sent valuable regionalsources of quality care.
