Full story, B4 MADEIRA — A family-friendly estab- lishment and a business owner with a his- tory of being a good civic citizen were the top priorities expressed by residents during a meeting about the future tenant of the city-owned former railroad depot building. About 60 people attended the public meeting at the Madeira High School caf- eteria Sept. 18. Tom Moeller, city manager, said the meeting was conducted because, “City Council decided to take a step back and look at the overall use of the building.” “This is truly a rare opportunity – that’s why we’re here,” he said. Moeller explained to attendees the city’s five goals and objectives for the former railroad depot building: Protect the depot’s historic integrity, preserve and enhance development of the Much- more Historical Area, enhance the over- all vitality of the business district, attract new business into the city, and make sure the business will be able to generate di- rect and indirect revenue for the city and Madeira City Schools District. Attendees were put into six-to-eight member groups and asked to present their own lists of priorities. The groups spent about 30 minutes discussing ideas, and Assistant City Manager Annalee Duganier compiled the priorities on poster-sized sheets of paper, which Moeller hung on a cafeteria wall. To complete the meeting, each person was given a strip of five dots they could stick on any of the priorities list Duga- nier created. Actual tallies on what the audience prioritized won’t be available until Moell- er and Duganier pour through the dot- covered posters. “I think it was great,” Duganier said. “It will be cool to go through all the in- formation.” The last time the city conducted this type of meeting to receive input on how to develop Camargo Road, Moeller said, and the depot building meeting drew a larger crowd. The former railroad depot building has been a point of contention since a May 8 fire caused then-tenant Choo Choo’s restaurant to close its doors. Choo Choo’s owner Mike Wessel had leased the depot from the city on a month-to-month basis and, despite hav- ing his lease terminated at the end of July, submitted a proposal to open an ice cream shop at the depot. City Council members have not yet commented on Wessel’s proposal or sev- en other business proposals. There is no timetable set for when City Council will decide on the future tenant for the former railroad building, but Moeller said there is still a possibility council could solicit another round of proposals from business owners.

“When you see some-one trying to go into thedriveway here it’s goingto complicate things, es-pecially when a lot of peo-ple are trying to go intoSkyline,” she said.

The case was con-tinued to the meeting onSept. 10 for the applicantto make any changes tothe plans that requiredzoning variances, butBickford said the appli-cant didn’t make anychanges by the date of themeeting and the commis-sion recommended thatthe trustees deny thecase.

The board will also de-cide whether Premier La-ser Spa, 7865 KenwoodRoad, canadda sign to thefront of the building.

The spa, which subletsfrom Massage Envy,wants to add a 28-square-foot sign above the door,which is larger than pre-viously allowed.

Bickford said the zon-ing commission decidedat the Sept. 10 meeting torecommend that thetrustees deny this appli-cation as well.

The public hearingsfor both zoning cases arescheduled for Oct. 3, be-fore the regular Board ofTrustees meeting, at theadministration building,8540 Kenwood Road.

leaf pick-up soon

The city of Deer Park’sannual curbside leaf col-lectionwill begin theweekof Oct. 14 and end in mid-December.

Due to changingweath-er conditions and otherfactors it is difficult to es-tablish an exact schedulefor the pick-up.

Raked leaves must beplaced between the side-walk and the curb. Offi-cials are asking residentsnot to pile leaves in thegutters or ditches becausethey will obstruct drain-age andclog the stormwa-ter catch basins.

Only leaves can bepicked up by the leaf ma-

Residents are remind-ed that the burning ofleaves is prohibited.

Thecity’sweeklybrushchipping will be suspend-ed during the city’s curb-side leaf collection.

BRIEFLY

COLUMBIA TWP. —Hav-ing failed to convince Ma-riemont to join it in build-ing a roundabout at a six-way intersection at a jointborder, township officialsare proceeding with theirnext-up choice:

A roundabout at Bram-ble Avenue and PlainvilleRoad at the border of Co-lumbia Township and theCincinnati neighborhoodofMadisonville.

The Ohio-Kentucky-In-diana Regional Council ofGovernments (OKI)awarded Columbia Town-

ship a $1.76 million grantin 2010 for a roundabout atthe township/Mariemontborder where Plainvilleand Madisonville roadsmeetMurray Avenue.

“Since we were unableto convince Mariemont ofthe value of a roundaboutat a six-waystopweareat-tempting to take the grantmoney that we receivedand apply it towards aroundabout at Brambleand Plainville,” said Co-lumbia Township Admin-istratorMike Lemon.

“Imetwith the directorof traffic and transporta-tion engineering for Cin-cinnati and he’s very sup-portive and will help usachieve that – which wasgood news.

Aroundabout isacircu-lar intersection in whichincoming traffic yields totraffic circulating oneway.

Township leaders be-lieve the traffic-manage-ment option would im-prove safety, traffic flow,aesthetics and economic-development possibilitiesin the area.

But a majority of theMariemontPlanningCom-mission disagreed at ameeting inJune,voting3-2againstmakingchanges atthe intersection, includingconverting it to a four-waystop. Mariemont MayorDan Policastro, a memberof the planning commis-sion, votedwith themajor-ity.

Some residents at themeeting spoke in supportof the roundabout whileothers spoke in opposition.

Enjoying the job is areason many people workin their field of choice.The same goes for mathteachers.

In the Cincinnati area,math teachers have anoutlet for their love of thesubject — a math teach-er’s circle. Madeira HighSchool mathematicsteacher Steve Phelps de-scribes it as a “math clubfor teachers,” where edu-cators at all levels canconvene to work on prob-lem-solving techniquesand broaden their knowl-edge by working withlike-minded people.

There are math teach-er’s circles across thecountry and abroad, butCincinnati’s is the first ofits kind in Ohio. Cincin-nati Hills Christian Acad-emy teacher Linda Boll-man found the concept attheMathematics Associa-tion of America annualmeeting and thought theidea could be popularback home.

“As amath teacher I’malways looking for oppor-tunities to learn more,”shesaid. “... (Mathcircles)help teachers engage inproblem-solving andmaybe find somethingthey haven’t done be-fore.”

Cincinnati’s mathteacher’s circle meetsabout six times per schoolyear, with teachers andmathematicians from allaround the city.

Some regulars comefrom the Dayton andNorthern Kentuckyareas, such as Deer Park,The Seven Hills School,Fairfield and Lebanon.Phelps added that they’vemet teachers fromschools inColumbus, Indi-anapolis and Clevelandwho are considering theidea for home.

When teachers meet,they pose a problem andthen try towork thatprob-lemout byusingproblem-solving techniques, col-laboration and trial-and-error to solve that prob-lem.

After, they share theirresults and reflect onwhat they feltworked andwhat didn’t.

Bollman said it’s that

co-operative atmospherethat fosters new ways oflooking at math and ex-pands their knowledge.

“It helps us to connectwith our students,” shesaid.

“Learning math isn’t asolitary activity, ... and Isee things I wouldn’t nor-mally when I’m workingon my own.”

Teachers, mathemati-cians, tutors or anyonewho teaches math to oth-ers is welcome to partici-pate in themath teacher’scircle, Phelps said.

Summer might be over, butDeer Park Community CitySchools wanted to go back toclass in style.

In order to get students,teachers and parents excitedfor the start of a new schoolyear, thedistrict recently threwa “Back to School Bash” for thefirst time. Food trucks fromColdstone Creamery, PizzaTower, Gold Star Chili, Red Ses-ame and hot dog cart Kaimel-sky’s parked on the front lawnofDeerParkJr./Sr.HighSchool,8351PlainfieldRoad, to feed thecrowd.

The laid-back atmosphereand warm, sunny weatherbrought dozens of people to the

high school for the afternoon.Aside from the food, DeerPark’s cheerleading squad andbands performed, encouragingschool spirit and excitement forthe upcoming year.

Michelle Lemmon, a newfirst-grade teacher this year atHolmes Primary, said shethought the bash, as well as thefoodtrucktwist,wasagoodwayto welcome a new school year.

“I think it’s awesome to havelocal vendors and things thatconnect the business side of thecommunity as well. It’s been apositive experience,” she said.

Parents, students and facul-ty members weren’t the onlypeople to attend. District resi-dents, as well as city workersand firefighters from DeerPark/Silverton Joint Fire Dis-

trict, took lunch breaks at thebash to show support for theschools.

Gini Verbesselt, director of

public relations/communica-tions for the district and orga-nizer of the event, said peopleapproached her all afternoon to

expresshowmuchtheyenjoyedthe event and hope it becomes anew tradition for the district.

“I think (parents and teach-ers) were excited to get togeth-er to intermingle before schoolstarted, and it helped break theice,” she said.

“Thedifferentgroupsofpeo-ple that showed up portrays thewhole ‘It takes a village to raisea child’ image that Deer Parkhas and embraces. It was re-freshing to see that.”

MADEIRA — The CincinnatiHillsLeaguefootball trophyhasresided atMadeiraHigh Schoolthe last two years.

Coach Mike Shafer’s Mus-tangswere14-0 the last two sea-sons in theCHLandhad lost justfive league games in five yearscoming into 2013.

However, last year Madeiralost a numberof seniors, includ-ing co-CHL Players of the YearTimmy James and AndrewMcDulin and long-time startingquarterback Zack Jansen. Sev-eral other Mustangs were first-or second-team selections.

Of that all-leaguegroup, onlyreceiver Grant Hopewell anddefensive back Matt Ballwegwere back for another go as thepads got cracking in August.

Naturally, the assumptionwas that the Mustangs couldn’tpossibly repeat.

Apparently, no one told the2013 seniors.

Going into the Wyominggame Sept. 20, Madeira hadscored 41, 53 and 49 points.

“We’ve had a lot of guys stepupthisyear,”Shafersaid. “Theyplayed well on JV last year andwe knew they could step in. Oursenior class did a good job ofleading us throughout the sum-mer.”

Hopewell has stayed at re-ceiver, but Ballweg has gotten acrack at quarterback his senioryear and hismaking themost ofit.

“I knew that Matt Ballwegwoulddowell,”Shafer said. “Heplayed quarterback all of lastsummer because our starter(Zack Jansen) was hurt. WithGrant Hopewell and Cole John-son returning, I knew they’d begood. Nick Cedillo and RyanWelt and Jewels Edmersonhave stepped in and done reallywell this year.”

Edmerson, like Ballweg, is asenior who had to bide his time.For the past two seasons, he’splayed behind Timmy James.Now, he’s among the CHL rush-ing leaders.

“It was tough waiting ourturn, but we’re well preparednowandglad tobeable tostep inand do a good job,” Edmersonsaid.

The 175-pound Edmerson isalso a reliable receiver out ofthe backfield and has helpedclassmate Ballweg put up somebig numbers in the passinggame. In week one alone, Ball-weg threw for 382 yards in acome-from-behind win over

Norwood.“I think we’re definitely sur-

prising people,” Ballweg said.“Even people at Madeira werecounting us out. It feels good tobe on the winning side.”

Chimed inEdmerson, “We’restill scoring the sameamount ofpoints that we did last year andthe year before that.”

Madeira’s lone returningfirst-team player is receiver/defensive back Grant Hope-well, who was second in receiv-ingyards in2012.He’scurrentlyon top of the league standingsand on pace to rack up morethan 1,000 yards receiving.

Like Ballweg and Edmerson,the chip is planted firmly on theshoulder ofHopewell andmanyof the Mustangs seniors.

“This offseason I heard ev-eryone talking about how we

lost 18 seniors and people defi-nitely doubted us,” Hopewellsaid. “I think we’ll prove every-one wrong. I think we’ll win theCHL again and go to the play-offs and make a little run.”

INDIANHILL—Despite somegrowing pains and the loss ofthree college-level playersfrom last year’s squad, the Indi-anHill High School girls soccerteam controls its own destiny.

The upside is if things gowell, you cruise into the tourna-ment. The downside is, there’snot much room for error.

“If something’s broken, youdon’t have a lot of time to fix it,”

Lady Braves Coach Amy Dun-lap said. “At the same time, it’skind of exciting. I tell the play-ers this is all about opportuni-ties.”

This season has seen Dunlapshuffle thedeck in termsofper-sonnel and positions.

“We don’t have a single kidthat’s playing a position theyplayed last year,” Dunlap said.

The biggest change was tak-ing Lexi Carrier out of the goal-keeper spot and inserting fresh-man Ellie Schaub. The sopho-

moreCarrier is now a defender.“She’s doing a great job on

the field and gives us a lotmoreflexibility,” Dunlap said. “Lexienjoys the field a lot more.”

Senior Paige Gloster used tobe on the front line and is now acenter mid. She still has beenable to find thenet and leads theteam in scoring along with Ma-cy Miller, who also moved tomidfield.

“Paige has been a great lead- Indian Hill’s Paige Gloster (9) tangles with Wyoming’s Emma Klug (4)Sept. 18 at Indian Hill. Klug had the lone goal of the game in a 1-0 winfor Wyoming.JOSEPH FUQUA II/COMMUNITY PRESS

er for us this year,” Dun-lap said. “She’s had to de-velop a very young teamand she’s doing a nice jobwith it.”

A big boost for IndianHill would be if juniorSydney Gloster could re-turn. The forward toreher ACL in the spring.

“We’re hoping to gether back,” Dunlap said. “Iknow she’d like to playwith her sister.”

Also helping in thescoring department hasbeen Sophie Bell. Whileher older sister, Nicole,shoots at the circular netat Indiana, Sophie aimsfor the rectangular goal.

“She’s playing in themidfield and we’ve got astriker that’s injured soshe’s been subbing a littlebit up top,” Dunlap said.“She’s fast and she’s serv-ing great crosses for us.”

Indian Hill’s seniorsare Paige Gloster, strikerEmily Markesbery andmidfielder/national an-them singer Emma Lowe.Lowehas taken themicro-phone on the field beforeevery game.

Defensively, Dunlaphas found it rewarding towatch sophomore EliseSum. In a season withoutthe previous number ofwins, there are other vic-tories.

“There’sakid that real-ly seized an opportunity,”Dunlap said. “That’s real-ly fun to see new players

come from where youdidn’t expect them tocome from. She’s going tobe a standout.”

Joining Sum on de-fense is another sopho-more Claire Brown. Ju-nior Grace McCormick isanother key cog.

As for the cogsmissingfrom last year, Liz Slat-tery is playing at Florida,with Rachael Ballish atBelmont and Taylor Jack-son at Miami University.

Ballish and Belmontrecently came up fromNashville to square offwith Jackson and Miamiin Oxford.

INDIAN HILL — A guynamedWildman ought tobe making headlines fordrag racing stolen tourbuses the wrong waydownaone-waystreetaf-ter a night fronting hismetal band at the ViperRoom.

Cincinnati CountryDay senior Patrick Wild-man - on the other hand -earns his recognition at adifferent kind of clubwith a different kind ofdriving.

The clubs are of thecountry variety, wheregentleman play golf and

tennis, not the seedykindwhere B-list celebritiesgo to hide in plain sight.

The Madeira residenthas his own kind of rock-star cred as the two-timedefending Division IIstate runner up in tennis,but his drives these daysaim down a fairway forthe Indians golf team.

“I played pretty wellforme,”Wildmansaidaf-ter the first round of theMiami Valley Confer-ence tournament at Wal-den Ponds Golf Club inFairfield. “I shot an 84.

“Ishan (Ghildyal) is byfar the best player on ourteam. He shot a 73 andmedaled today by three

or four strokes. Ithink he’s thebest player inthe MVC, butI’m trying tocontribute.”

CCD headcoach GregFaulhaber saidWildman con-tributes experience un-der tournament condi-tions.

“He’s great to have inthe lineup,” Faulhabersaid. “He’s really goodbecause he knows how tohandle thepressure.He’snot phased by the MVCs,or thesectionalor thedis-trict. He’s been there.

“Tennis is definitely

his No. 1 sport, buthe brings those in-tangibles that allowhim to succeed ingolf because he’sused them in tennis.He’s unflappable.”

Faulhaber citedWildman’s first-dayMVC score of 84 as

an example.“That was his best

round of the year,” hesaid. “So far. He’s peak-ing at the right time,which is my goal for thekids every year. Get bet-ter during the season andplayyourbestat the tour-nament.”

Wildman also findssimilarities between his

two sports.“One bad shot in ten-

nis isn’t going to kill you;it’s just a point,” he said.“One bad shot in golfmight not ruin yourround, but it can put youin a position to signifi-cantly increase yourscore.

“They’re really simi-lar in that you’re aloneout there in golf. Youhave a coach and you cantalk tohim,butyoureallyonly see him every hourand a half. The differ-ence is,canyoukeepit to-gether for every shot inyour round?

“(Golf) is not as phys-ical, but for me it’s a lot

tougher because it takesso much coordinationandconcentration to hit agolf ball.”

From the mental sideof the game, Wildman isglad the MVC plays itsleague tournamentwhere the the sectional adistrict tournamentstake place.

“We have them herefor exactly that reason,”he said. “It’s a big help toget familiar with thecourses right before youplay them in the tourna-ment. You know whereyou want to be and youcan manage your gamebetter.”

A publication of

As the original mother of anadopted adult with whom Ihave been reunited for 17years, I am writing to encour-age your readership to supportOhio Senate Bill 23 and OhioHouse Bill 61. These two im-portant pieces of legislationwill provide adopted Ohioansaccess to their original birthcertificates (OBC).

It is unbelievable that, un-like many other states, ourgovernment actively preventsa group of its citizens fromaccessing basic informationabout themselves. But by de-nying Ohioans adopted be-tween 1964 and 1996 access to

their OBC, our stategovernment deniesthese people the rightto fundamental facts,such as the date andplace of their birth andthe identity of theiroriginal (birth) par-ents.

Besides the basicright of All citizens toknow such informationabout themselves,there is another compellingreason to support these bills.

Today, physicians and med-ical specialists increasinglyrely on genetic informationand medical history to diag-

nose and treat manydiseases. Adoptees whoare denied access totheir OBC are prevent-ed from obtaining themedical history thatmay save their livesand the lives of theirchildren.

SB 23 and HB 61willrectify this grievouswrong and must besigned into law. Last

spring, the bills received over-whelming support from boththe House and Senate.

HB 61 passed the House 96-1and SB 23 passed the SenateMedicaid, Health and Human

Services Committee 9-0. How-ever, Ohio Senate leadershipstalled on bringing the legisla-tion before the full senate for avote.

Speaking for the vast major-ity of birth parents, I ask foryour help to pass this legisla-tion. We never asked to beshielded from our children.

Archaic laws that sealedadoption records were im-posed on our children and onus. Our adult children deservetheir original birth certificatesand access to vital, personalinformation only we can givethem.

Readers should contact

their state senators (http://www.ohiosenate.gov/senate/index) and encourage them toactively support these billsthat will restore the rights offull citizenship to all of Ohio’sadopted adults.

Ask your senators to urgethe Senate president to bring itup for a vote. If they are al-lowed to vote, there is no doubtthat the Senate will pass thelegislation and end this obviousdiscrimination against ourfellow citizens.

Last week’s questionIf negotiations fail to secure

Syria’s chemical weapons shouldthe U.S. conduct military strikesagainst Syria? Why or why not?

“Heck no! We need to stayout of it!

“Ifwestrike thenwewill justsend money and supplies to fixwhat we destroyed. What’s thepoint?

Kilee Holt

“No. We are not the keepersof the world. The only situationto warrant that would be an at-tack on the U.S. or Israel, andeventhen it shouldbea targetedthing, not years of your troopson foreign soil.

“This seems tome to be a po-litical move to make the presi-dent look like a strong leader.Why haven’t he been outragedwhen140,000peoplewerekilledin Syria by artilliary? Whyhasn’t the chemical weaponsbeen addressed before now?Why didn’t we take actionwhenour people were murdered inBenghazi? Why have we al-lowed Iran to have the capabil-ities to make a nucular bomb?Why are we giving billions ofdollars to countries like Paki-stan. What about Africa?

“We need to be an isolatedcountry for a few years and getour own house in order ... getpeople back to work, make wel-farea “job” thathas tobe repaidwith work, training or school.

“It’s time someone else inthis world takes care of Korea,Pakistan, and the Middle East.

“To put this in perspective,that area of the world has beenfighting for thousands of years.What makes anyone thing wecan change that?”

J.K.

“Attacking the Syrian gov-ernment would be helping AlQaeda gain a foothold. Al Qaedais our enemy, it’s who we’refighting in Iraq and Afghani-stan.

“Last time I checked provid-ing aid to the enemy was calledtreason. Seems pretty simple tome!”

J.S.K.

“Absolutely not. We are in

enough useless wars and wedon’t need any more.

“When will we realize thatwe can’t police theworld. Thereare enough problems at homethat we can work on and firstand foremost should be findinga good candidate to replace thejoke of a president we have inthere right now.”

D.D.

“Absolutely not! We shouldbegin negotiations to try theleader and his brother for warcrimes against humanity.

“This may mot work either,butwouldplaceothernationsonthe plate to vote for or against.An air strike would not producemuch,but solidifymanyagainstus.”

W.B.B.

“I am still holding out hopethat Syria will safely releasetheir chemical weapons to theappropriate parties so no moreinnocent people lose their lives.

“If thisdoesnotbecomereal-ity, I donot think theU.S. shouldattack unless we are joined byothercountries.TheU.S.cannotafford to start another war, andI'm talking about the cost of los-ing more American men andwomen in the Middle East.

“No one wants chemicalweapons to be deployed anywhere on Earth. I think the ef-forts should be focused on re-moving the leadership of Syriathat obviously think it is accept-able to kill via chemicals.”

E.E.C.

“If Syria has crossed the‘World's Red Line’ then theworld should be willing to dealwith it. Why does it have to beus?

“We did not do anythingabout it when Africans werehacking each other to deathwith machetes. How is this dif-ferent?

“Shouldn't the Russians orthe Turks or the Saudis bemoreconcerned than we are? They

are a lot closer.”F.S.D.

“President Obama called for'no boots on the ground' strikesagainst Syria's chemical weap-ons and delivery systems. Ifthis can be done with the sameprecision and limitations as theraid which caught and killedOsama Bin Laden, it could be agood deterrent to chemicalweapons use.

“Andmaybe not. People whounderstand thedetailsof thesit-uation should make that deci-sion. The current plan fromRussia is a better one, if itworks.

“Unfortunately, the detailsof such a raid cannot be aired inpublic before they happen, andthe level of distrust here in theU.S. is sogreat thatweprobablycan't have an informed debate.

“Syria is ahorriblemess, andit is hard to imagine how wecould get much more involvedthan our present supply ofweapons to the ‘rebels’ withoutmaking someone hate us morethan they already do.

“Even this is very risky,since some of the people we aresupplying are already angrywith us.

“We should remind everyonethat this is about oil, eventhough Syria's production isvery small.

“We should concentrate onfinding renewable alternativesto oil which are affordable andpractical, and let the folks in theMiddle East sort out their ownaffairs.

“It's a real discredit to theRepublicans in the House ofRepresentatives that their op-position tomilitaryengagementis based on their dislike of thefantastic imaginations theyhave about our president, rath-er than any realization that theefforts they have supported inthe past were tragic mistakes.”

N.F.

“Every military action cost

us dearly. As a country deep indebt we need to reduce our ex-penditures every way we can,bothmonetarily and in terms ofthe lives of our fighting menand women.

“I realize we have a promiseof ‘No boots on the ground,’ butcan we control all the possibleoutcomes which would resultfrom our actions?

“The big question we need toask is ‘Why should we take anyaction?’ Do we need to injectourselves in this civil war?

“I fail to see any importantnational interest at stake in thisconflict. Many of those who es-pouse action on our part are thesame oneswho favored sendingourmilitary to IraqandAfghan-istan for five and six tours onlyto see the growth of PTSD. And,they have no family memberlives at stake.

“So, chemical weapons wereused. OK, what would we do ifRussia or China used them ontheir citizens?

“Mypoint is there are limita-tions to power.We cannot policethewholeworld.TheUnitedNa-tions should take the lead asthey did inKorea, but don't holdyour breath for this.

“I hope we are done drawinglines in the sandwhere we haveno strategic interests.”

T.J.

“I thinkwehave seenenoughof the world's police actions.The United Nations should beresponsible to discipline Syria.

“The United States shouldstart working on bettering thiscountrybygettingoureconomyback in shape!”

O.H.R.

“We should not strike Syriamilitarily just yet. As much asPresident Obama has followedthe proper channels of puttingthe vote to the Congress andcheckingwithUN investigators(unlike his immediate prede-cessor ever did),we shouldwaitand see.

“War should always be thelast resort of the powerful; wedon't have anything to prove inthe region.”

I’ve told you beforehow this column “con-nects” all of us. There’snot a week that goes bythat I don’t hear fromsomeone telling me abouta new recipe they’vetried, or a treasured onethey want to share. It’s allabout food, family andfriends.

Laurie Bredenfoer-der’s story about herhomemade lasagna is oneof those priceless gems.After she read my recipefor easy lasagnausing no-cooklasagna noodles,she told me it’s notso bad to use theno-cook noodles,but “Theymay behard to find ormore costly thanthe mundaneones. If so, I cando much better.”

Laurie sent meher recipe for her fam-ily’s favorite, which shehas been making for25-plus years using anykind of lasagna noodleright out of the box. She’snever had a problemwithusing them and her lasa-gna turns out perfect,every time.

“Great for a largegathering and this maywell be the perfect lasa-gna recipe. It’s a legendin our family”, she said.Unfortunately, the recipeis too long to share hereso I’ll put it on my blog.But don’t let that hold youback. I can’t wait to tryLaurie’s recipe and Iwant you to try it, too.

Dairy-free,cholesterol-free,low-fat dinner rolls

Don’t be squeamishabout the ingredientshere. Powdered creameris used bymore than afew bakers to achieve anice-tasting, dairy-freedinner roll. Check out thephoto of the batch Imade.

Add yeast and mixwell on low speed. Turn tomedium and beat untilsmooth. Addmore flourif necessary to make asoft, but sticky dough.Either knead it for 6-8minutes by machine orby hand. If doing by

hand, turn out onfloured surface.Knead untilsmooth, like ababy’s bottom.Place in bowl coat-ed with cookingspray, turning onceto coat top. Coverand let rise untildoubled, about onehour. Punch downand turn out onto

lightly floured surface;divide into 18 to 24pieces. Shape each pieceinto a roll. Place twoinches apart on sprayedbaking sheets. Cover andlet rise until doubled,30-45 minutes. Bake for15-20 minutes or untilgolden brown.

Tips from readers’kitchens

Key lime cake glaze:Dot, an Erlanger reader,made the yummy keylime cake published, butsaid the glaze was runny

and too intensely fla-vored for her palate.Next time she’ll use twocups powdered sugar andstart with two table-spoons lime juice and twotablespoons water and gofrom there.

DEATHS

A company I report-ed on earlier this yearhas been sued by thestate of Ohio for, amongother things, takingadvantage of elderlyand low-income people.

Queen City ScriptCare, of Blue Ash, wasto provide discountedprescription medicationto those in need,but is being ac-cused of makingunauthorizedwithdrawals fromconsumer’s bankaccounts andfailing to providerefunds.

Back in Febru-ary, I reported onthe complaints Ireceived frommany of the com-pany’s customers. Peo-ple like Krystal Beckel-himer, of Georgetown,who said, “The companyworked good for abouttwo months. I got mymedicine, paid $30, andthen all of a sudden Iwasn’t getting anymedicine and he ba-sically said, “’Well, it’son the way.’”

Beckelhimer hadcomplained to companyowner Tom Fenske, butsays she was stillcharged $30 monthlyeven though she wasn’tgetting her medicine.Then, she says, QueenCity Script Care tookmultiple charges out ofher bank account in thesame month.

Ruth Hill of Ver-sailles also had multiplepayments taken fromher bank account.

“The problem startedwhen there were fourwithdrawals in May,”she says. Her husband,Clarence, was payingthe company $40 amonth and also hadmultiple withdrawalsfrom his account in onemonth.

Missing medicineand multiplewithdrawalswere also bigproblems forBetty Goodmanof Georgetown,who complainedto Fenske.

“One month hetook out $30 frommy checkingaccount sixtimes. I went tothe bank three

times to stop the pay-ments,” she said. Good-man is also upset be-cause they kept takingmoney for medicine forher husband Larry –months after he died.

“I kept calling theoffice and saying, ‘Whyare you taking moneyfor Larry? He’s dead,he’s not getting no medi-cine.’”

Many consumerssaid they only way theystopped those paymentswas to close their bankaccount. Queen CityScript Care PresidentTom Fenske wouldn’t doan interview with me,but told me all moneywithdrawn by mistake

was being refunded.However, the Ohio At-torney General’s officesays it has 20 unre-solved complaintsagainst the businesstotaling $7,141.18.

In the lawsuit, thebusiness and ownersThomas Fenske andTheresa Fenske arecharged with multipleviolations of the OhioConsumer Sales Prac-tices Act. The suit seeksrestitution for consum-ers, injunctive relief,civil penalties, and oth-er costs.

Attorney GeneralMike DeWine says otherconsumers have beenaffected and he wantsthose who have beentreated unfairly to file acomplaint with his of-fice at 800-282-0515.

DeWine says, “Withthe upcoming heathcare changes, we willcontinue to watch forbusinesses that makemisleading claims abouthealth care services.”

There really is a pro-gram to help patientsget free or discountedmedications. It is run bythe pharmaceuticalcompanies and eligibleconsumers can applyfor patient assistancefor free. Many nonprof-its offer help for nocharge.

In conjunctionwith the Idaho PotatoCommission’s 75th anni-versary, the company issending its more than12,000 pound spudthrough hundreds of cit-ies over the next fourmonths.

“People are so excitedto see the potato,” saidTyler Pagel, Tater Teammember. “The smilesmake our job awesome.”

Every city the teamtravels tohasa localpart-ner and all the moneyraised goes directly to lo-cal meals on wheels pro-grams. The local partner

for the commission’sfour-day venture inGreater Cincinnati isCincinnati Area SeniorServices based inWalnutHills. Thus far, CASS andthe Tater Team visitedBlue Ash, Ault Park andNorthern Kentucky.

“It’s great they’re do-ing this,” said Tracy Col-lins, executive directorofCASS. “Theawarenesscomponent of our effortis really important ... weare more and more de-pendent on these types ofevents and programs forfundraising.”

It’s back-to-schooltime and OperationSchool Bell, a signatureprogram of AssistanceLeague of Greater Cin-cinnati, has an average of55 students in need, kin-dergarten through fifthgrades, arriving daily tobe fitted for new schooluniforms, shoes, and ad-ditional basic and neces-sary clothing items.

Many could not imag-inesending theirchildrenoff to school with ill-fit-ting clothes, shoes, or onedaily outfit for the entireyear, yet more than 1,800students annually walkthrough the doors of As-sistance League to be fit-ted.

But this doesn’t evenbegin to cover the need inarea schools.

Imagine being in a lot-tery in hopes of getting anew uniform for school.Currently 90 volunteermembers belonging to anorganization with no paidstaff have managed toclothe more than 13,300children since the incep-tion of the program, be-ginning the first yearwith 100 students andbuilding to now morethan 1,800 per year.

Cincinnati is rankedseventh in the nationwith30.6 percent of its resi-dents living inpovertyac-cording to the UnitedStates Census, AmericanSurvey 2011.

This number indicatesthat 48 percent of Cincin-nati children are living inpoverty as tallied by TheNational Center for Chil-dren and leads to 40.4 pe-rent of students in Ohioreceiving subsidizedlunch, an increase from32 percent in 2009 fromthe latest figures of theDepartment of Educa-tion, 2010.

It takes an average of$78 to dress one child forOperation School Bell,which runs from the endof August through mid-October each year.

Assistance League ofGreater Cincinnati is anonprofit 501(c)(3) phil-anthropic organization“dedicated tomeeting the

critical needs of childrenand adults by identifying,developing, implement-ing and funding ongoingcommunity programs.”

In 2012 the organiza-tion won the Better Busi-ness Bureau’s covetedTorch Award and is cele-brating 15 years of pro-gram services to thegreater Cincinnati andNorthern Kentucky re-gionwhile serving18 hos-pitals, six womens shel-ters inclusive of the YW-CA, 35 public and paro-chial schools and 5colleges.

This collaboration andsupport ensures that theAssistance League ofGreater Cincinnati is ful-filling gap needs in ac-cordance with our Mis-sion through its five pro-grams: Operation SchoolBell, Trauma Care, NewBeginnings, CollegeStarter Kits, and CollegeScholarship(s).
