Oak Hills Local School Dis-trict officials have indefinitelyextended a decision to imple-ment full-day kindergarten.

The district was consideringoffering an all-day kindergar-ten program beginning with the2016-2017 school year, butbased on a recommendationfrom Oak Hills SuperintendentTodd Yohey, the school boarddecided at its December meet-ing to wait on implementing theprogram.

Because of a delay from theOhio Department of Education,Yohey said the financial infor-mation needed for implement-ing all-day kindergarten wasnot in the hands of school offi-cials in time to make a decisionfor next school year.

He said the district had notreceived figures regarding

how much additional funding itwould receive from the statefor an all-day program. The dis-trict was waiting on the per-pu-pil funding amounts.

“Due to the delay in fundinginformation, implementationfor the 2016-2017 school yearwas not possible,” he said.“There are a lot of pieces to puttogether for a successful imple-mentation and six months is notan adequate time to do so.”

Oak Hills started discussingand researching a full-day kin-dergarten program in August2014. Yohey said district staffreviewed up-to-date publishedresearch about all-day kinder-garten, the district sent peopleto talk with districts that havestarted such programs and con-ducted a financial impact study.

EAST PRICE HILL – Imag-ine the old Price Hill Inclinebeing transformed into a ser-pentine trail park, illuminatedwith LED lights or restored tofeature another working in-clined railway.

Those are a few conceptsfor the historic site now hid-den by woods and brush.

Price Hill Will is hosting“Lights on the Hill,” a commu-nity forum to discuss plans forredeveloping the Price HillIncline site. The forum beginsat 6 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 26, atthe Warsaw Federal InclineTheater, 801 Matson Place.

Event organizer Sam Mc-Kinley, Price Hill Will’s direc-tor of community and busi-ness engagement, said the fo-rum was originally conceivedas a way to showcase a prize-winning idea from the Great-er Cincinnati Foundation’s2013 Big Idea Challenge.

East Price Hill residentLarry Wulker won secondplace and a cash prize in thechallenge for his idea to fund a

full study of returning the in-clines to both Price Hill andMount Adams.

When interviewed abouthis idea for the challenge bythe Price Hill Press in fall2013, Wulker said he’d thoughtfor a long time that the city’sinclines should be rebuilt asthey could spur more econom-ic development.

“If Pittsburgh can have anincline, why can’t Cincinnati,”he said at the time. “The fu-ture today is so much brighterthan it was 20 years ago. Let’suse the grant for an initial

port,” he said.Some of the educa-

tional benefits for stu-dents in all-day kinder-garten include additionalinstruction in math andreading, and he said stu-dents also participate inmusic, art and physicaleducation.

“Since students at-tend all day, we knowthey are receiving ahealthy lunch during theweek,” he said.

The original recom-mendation to offer full-day kindergarten wasmade in July 2015, whichYohey said would havegiven the district 18months to implement theprogram. The delay fromthe state promptedschool officials to indefi-

nitely extend the deci-sion to green-light theprogram, he said.

The facility renova-tions and teacher train-ing needed to start an all-day program will takeseveral months and can-not be accomplished pri-or to the start of nextschool year, he said.

The district estimatesit will cost about $500,000to renovate its schoolbuildings to support all-day kindergarten, and hesaid they project a needfor 13 additional teach-ers and an additionaleight to 10 support staffmembers, which in-cludes aides, occupation-al therapists, speech pa-thologists, physical ther-apists and school psy-chologists.

Yohey said the addi-tional ongoing personnelcosts for the all-day pro-gram would be about $1.2

million. The state hassince provided the dis-trict with funding fig-ures, and he said OakHills would receive anadditional $700,000 instate funding for all-daystudents, bringing thedistrict’s annual costdown to about $500,000.

The total cost in yearone would be around $1million, because of fa-cility renovations, andthen $500,000 per yearafter that, he said.

The recommenda-tion to offer full-day kin-dergarten remains inplace, but he said theschool board is not ex-pected to take any ac-tion in the immediate fu-ture.

“I anticipate imple-mentation to be discuss-ed in the future, but thefunding of the programwill continue to be achallenge,” he said.

study to see what possibil-ities exist.”

Building a new inclinewould help revitalize thecommunity, create jobs,lead to new dining and en-tertainment venues anddraw tourists, he said. Itwould also provide anoth-er mode of transportationto downtown Cincinnati.

Although his prizemoney was not enough tofund a full study and plan,Wulker hired Universityof Cincinnati architecturestudent Joe Klingshirnand urban planning stu-dent Ramon Fischer to re-view conditions at the siteand determine options forfurther study.

McKinley said the

presentation the UC stu-dents developed, which in-cludes several differentideas for using the formerincline, formed the nucle-us of the forum.

“I was surprised by thevariety of ideas peoplehave for using the site ofthe old incline, rangingfrom the very down-to-earth and do-able to thevery impressive and pret-ty imaginative,” he said.

In addition to proposalsfor a winding linear parkand an inclined railway, hesaid other ideas includeconstructing a city viewterrace at the top of the in-cline and building a fully-enclosed aerial gondolasystem connecting PriceHill to other city neighbor-hoods.

McKinley said the ideato install LED lights on theincline’s stone support

piers came from MountSt. Joseph University ar-chitecture student RobertGrogan, an East Price Hillnative who used to hikeand climb in the woodsnow covering the incline’sruins. Price Hill develop-ment group KB Partnerscommissioned Grogan tostudy options, and his pro-posal to highlight the siteand the developing InclineDistrict is based on hisknowledge of what is stillleft on the site, McKinleysaid.

He said the forum willbegin in the theater’s mainauditorium, where pre-senters will describe theirideas. After the presenta-tions, those in attendancewill be invited to gather inthe theater lobby to fur-ther discuss the ideas, geta closer look at visual con-cepts and give their inputon the proposals.

Light snacks will beavailable and the theater’scash bar will be open. Fa-cilitators will be on handto elicit attendees’ reac-tions and any additionalideas they may have.

The purpose of the fo-rum is to start conversa-tions about turning the in-cline site into a major as-set for the neighborhoodand Cincinnati.

McKinley said if thereis a strong opinion fromthe community about howto transform the incline,Price Hill Will would workto help find funding forthe project.

DELHI TWP. – Twohundred years of historyexists in the township andthe Delhi Historical Soci-ety is launching a newprogram to help furtherpreserve the area’s heri-tage.

Coinciding with thetownship’s bicentennialcelebration, the historicalsociety is hosting familyhistory scanning stationsthroughout the year tocollect photographs anddocuments from town-ship families.

“We are inviting thepublic to bring their pho-tos, journals and anythinghistorical from Delhi tohelp tell the story of thearea,” Cora Arney, execu-tive intern for the histori-cal society, said.

Historians with the or-ganization will use safescanning equipment todigitally collect familyphotos and documents,which will then be pre-served for posterity in thesociety’s computer ar-chive.

The scanning stationprogram is part of Ar-ney’s capstone project forher master’s degree inpublic history at NorthernKentucky University. Inaddition to digitally col-lecting historical arti-facts from Delhi families,she’ll also be organizingand cataloging the soci-ety’s electronic archive,making it easy for areahistorians and residentsinterested in conductinggenealogical research.

With a laptop computerand a variety of scanningmachines, Arney and oth-er historical society mem-bers will be able to quick-ly scan photographs, let-ters and other documentsand then hand the origi-nals back to residents whobring items for preserva-tion. Folks who want theirown digital copies can

bring a flash drive andhave a copy uploaded to it.

Arney said they antici-pate most people willbring photos to bescanned, but they wouldalso like – and have theability to scan – photo-graph negatives, slides,journals, military forms,deeds, maps, business ma-terials and historical doc-uments.

“It’s important for peo-ple in the area to sharetheir history, especiallyfor others who are doinggenealogical research,”she said.

Becky Johnson, his-torical consultant to thehistorical society, said oneof the reasons Delhi is astrong community is be-cause many families stayin the township.

Strong generationalroots are also beneficialfor the historical society,she said, as family historyisn’t taken elsewhere bypeople moving away.

“We know a lot of thetownship’s historical ma-terial has stayed righthere in Delhi,” she said.

The scanning stationprogram aims to help thesociety save township his-tory and also expand itscollection, Johnson said.

“Our mission is to dis-cover, preserve and dis-seminate the history ofDelhi Township,” she said.

While the scanningprogram is taking placethroughout the year, shesaid the society will be up-dating its computer soft-ware to make it even easi-er for those interested indoing historical researchto search the archives.

“For a somewhat smallhistorical society, we’restate-of-the-art,” she said.

Arney said the societyplans to conduct the scan-ning program throughoutthe entire year. The scan-ning dates scheduled up to

May 21 have been an-nounced, and she said theschedule for the latterpart of the year will be an-nounced sometime inMay.

PRICE HILL – The neighbor-hood’s newest green space andgathering place is nearly fin-ished.

St. Lawrence Square, a parknext to St. Lawrence Church atthe corner of Warsaw and St.Lawrence avenues, will soon beready for residents to enjoy.

The park, developed by PriceHill Will and the St. LawrenceSquare Committee, replacesthe vacant lot left after the for-mer Eagle Savings Bank build-ing burned down about sixyears ago.

“It’s looking more and morecomplete,” Jay Kratz, Price HillWill’s director of real estate de-velopment, said.

Most of the construction isfinished, and he said the last ma-jor feature to be installed is awater fountain.

Other features of the park in-clude a memorial to veteransfrom Price Hill, a performancestage, a brick walkway and aspacious grassy area. Artpieces and sculptures may beadded in the future.

Price Hill Will plans to host acelebration to mark the opening

of the space sometime thisspring, Kratz said.

“It’s a public square for all ofPrice Hill,” he said. “I think itwill provide a good sense ofplace and it will be a good gath-ering spot for the community.”

Pamela Taylor, director ofpublic outreach for Price HillWill, said St. Lawrence Squarewill be able to host an array ofactivities bringing residents to-gether.

Small concerts, celebrationsand commemorative events areall possibilities.

“We hope it can be a focalpoint for the neighborhood,”Taylor said.

Price Hill resident PatBruns, a member of the St. Law-rence Square Committee, said,“We envision the park as a wel-coming space that will bringpeople together to celebrate ourrich traditions and create new,shared memories, a placewhere the arts can flourish aswell as moments of quiet med-itation.”

Cincinnati provided a$107,000 grant to fund a portionof the park’s construction andPrice Hill Will and the parkcommittee raised an additional$70,000 to fund the space. Fund-

raising efforts included a brickpaver campaign. Price Hill resi-dents and former residentswere able to buy engravedbricks, which are displayed inthe front section of the pathwaythrough the park.

Kratz said construction of

the square began in late 2014.Price Hill Will would have likedto open the space sooner, but hesaid weather delays slowed theproject.

Ken Smith, executive direc-tor of Price Hill Will, said the or-ganization was happy to help

create a new community spacein the heart of East Price Hill.

“A lot of work has been put inby a group of dedicated commu-nity members to get this parkoff the ground and we’re verypleased to see it so close to fru-ition,” he said.

To do this from their second-gradeclassroom in Green Township, they senteight minions out into the world to betheir eyes and ears.

These minions were backpacksequipped with instructions and a dispos-able camera, although thankfully manypeople have sent digital pictures via

email. Students hoped that wonderfulpeople around the world would show theminions around their cities. Theyplanned to stay connected with theirminions by having global host familiessend emails and pictures of the minionsenjoying their new culture and sur-rounding. Once visits are complete, theminions are forwarded to a new countryand location.

At the end of September the studentsmet their minions, named them and sentthem out into the world. Bob was sent toPeshwar, Pakistan; Stuart to Istanbul,Turkey; Kyle to Basel, Switzerland;

Chase to Plettenberg, Germany; Jack toSaitama, Japan; Bananas to Shanghai,China, and John to Guinea, Africa.

Students are tracking minion move-ments on a large map at school and shar-ing their minions’ experiences by updat-ing the blog on their class website at sa-rahbertkeclass.wix.com. The childrenare writing fictional narratives to showtheir learning about the new culture andbrainstorming what else the minion cando in that culture. In February, studentswill begin creating presentations aboutthe different countries their buddieshave visited.

“I believe that students can learnabout the world in a fun and engagingway,” teacher Sarah Bertke said. “It isbeyond exciting to see the anticipationon their faces when we receive an emailfrom one of our current host families.”

When asked about the Traveling Min-ions project, second-grade student EllaWeinmann said, “I am really excited tobe able to see other parts of the countriesand what they do there. I love that onewent to Germany because I was able tosee some of my relatives I have neverseen before.” Ella also shared that sherealized that her relatives in Germanyeat some of the same things that she likesto eat here at home and that she wouldlove to visit Germany someday, just likeher minion friend.

Evan Elliott, a second-grader inBertke’s classroom, is impressed withthe technology, saying “It is amazingthat the minions can be sent all over theworld and that the class can receive mes-sages from them so easily.”

Hah - remember last weekwhen I was harvesting greensfrom my window boxes? Well,

with the ther-mometer read-ing 6 degreesthis morning, Idon’t have to tellyou that I won’tbe harvestingany more greensfrom them.

Oh well, be-fore too long I’llbe thumbingthrough the seed

catalogs which arrive daily,thinking thoughts of spring.Yes, it’s a long way off, butSuper Bowl isn’t. I wanted toshare a couple of fun and yum-my recipes to make your SuperBowl party memorable.

We always have a big crowdat our house, and it’s a traditionfor me to make homemadeglazed donuts. That recipe,with photos of happy little souschefs, is on my Abouteating.com site.

Readers want to knowNatural and Dutch cocoa -

what’s the diff? Without get-ting too technical, the differ-ence is acid.

Natural cocoa powder: themore common one, is cocoathat does not have its acidstripped. It’s a light cocoa colorwith a bitter flavor.

Dutch processed/alkalized:is a darker color due to a potas-sium solution that neutralizesthe acidity. It has a mellower,less bitter flavor. How to sub-stitute in recipes: check outAbouteating.com

Guru in our backyard: Greg’s 2 ingredient buttermilkranch wings

I met Greg Grisanti, Frisch’s chef for research and development, at aveterans’ garden event last summer. We found we had many similar in-terests when it comes to food. We both like to garden and experiment withnatural foods.

Greg lives in Clermont county with his family and is a graduate of St.Xavier high. He went on to become a classically trained chef at Johnson &Wales University. Alumni include Tyler Florence and Emeril Lagasse, both ofwhom I’ve worked with, and I put Greg right up there with them, talentwise. He’s lots of fun to cook with, and humble, too. “I prefer to call myselfa good cook”, he said. His research knowledge shows in the recipes hedevelops and fine tunes for the restaurants. Like using real lard in their piesand making 80% of their items from scratch.

Greg was a guest on my cable show and he featured recipes madewith Frisch’s ingredients. I wanted party food that was easy and delish. Wewere both happy with these wings, which I’m now addicted to. I think you’llbe making them often, too. You’ll use 2 out of 3 of the wing parts. Here’smy slight adaptation.

3 dozen or so chicken wings, cut into 3’s (save small pointed wingjoint for stock)

16 oz. jar of Frisch’s buttermilk ranch dressingOptional add-ins: chipotle pepper sauce, ground cayenne, garlic

Preheat oven to 375.Place wings in a 2 gallon baggie. Pour in dressing, squeeze air out, and

seal. Gently massage bag to incorporate dressing with wings. Marinate forseveral hours in the refrigerator; overnight is best. Remove wings from bagand put in a colander to remove excess dressing. (Now I did not remove thedressing; I just poured the wings in a single layer on a baking sheet). Placewings on sprayed cookie sheet and bake 40 minutes or so, depending on thesize of the wings, until cooked through and golden brown.

Serve with Frisch’s blue cheese dressing as a dipping sauce along withcelery sticks if you like.

Baked jalapeno poppers

Perfect party food with a spicy bite. A perennial fave.

1 pound nice size jalapenos, halved and seeded

Filling:

8 oz. cream cheese1 cup shredded sharp cheddar1 cup shredded Jack cheese6 bacon strips, cooked crisp and crumbled1/2 teaspoon garlic powderSalt to tasteBreadcrumbs, regular or Panko

Preheat oven to 325. Blend everything but breadcrumbs together.Put about 2 tablespoons into each half and roll in crumbs. Place onsprayed baking pan and bake for 20 to 35 minutes. The longer you bakethem, the milder they become.

Jan. 13 questionWhat changes, if any, would

you make to the primary systemfor choosing presidential candi-dates?

“Not necessarily limited tothe primary system, rather ourentire election system, I wouldmake the whole thing shorter.My proposal would state that the‘election cycle’ will start nomore than three months prior tothe election. One week to regis-ter as a candidate, one week toBS the public via media, twoweeks to hold the primaries (allof them), two months to furtherstate your case to the voting pub-lic including one debate permonth, one day off and then theelection is held. One additionalrefinement to this incrediblypractical plan would be that po-litical ads would be run on onespecial channel only, 24/7. If peo-ple want to hear all the BS theycan choose to turn on that chan-nel for enlightenment.

“Oh, two more terrific refine-ments that I know you will love,they are beautiful: 1) Term lim-its. Two terms and done, then goget a real job like the rest of us.2) No pensions, no continued sal-ary for life, no special healthcare program other than thoseoffered to common folks. It iscalled public service for a rea-son.”

M.J.F.

Jan. 6 questionWhat is the best way to handle

the Syrian refugee situation?

“The United States should notallow Syrian refugees to enterthe US at this time. Almost ev-eryday there are criminal activ-ities in the US and Europe in-volving Syrian refugees. Muchof such activity happening inEurope at the present time is notbeing widely reported.

“It is estimated that it coststhe FBI and Department ofHomeland Security $60,000 -$70,000 to screen each refugeeand the Agencies state they areunable to do so sufficiently to beassured that the refugees arenot terrorist risks. It is also esti-mated that 90-plus percent of allrecent refugees coming to theUS are on food stamps and 70percent received cash welfareand government funded healthcare. The US can ill afford thecost and terrorist threat broughtabout by the refugee situation.Our national debt is unsustain-able. There are many problemsin the country because of our dif-ficult fiscal situation that are notbeing addressed, and our law en-

forcement agencies are overex-tended because of terrorist in-vestigations, of which refugeesare a significant part.

“Two major responsibilitiesof our elected politicians are toprovide for the safety/securityof the populace and to be respon-sible stewards of our tax dollars.On Nov. 17, the Ohio House ofRepresentatives overwhelming-ly passed a resolution that readin part: ‘RESOLVED, That we,the members of the 131st Gener-al Assembly of the State of Ohiourge the President of the UnitedStates to prevent the resettle-ment of Syrian refugees into theState of Ohio as well as the Unit-ed States of America.’ This reso-lution was sent to the President,the Secretary of Homeland Se-curity and other Federal Gov-ernment officials. It was a disap-pointment to learn that StateRep. Tom Brinkman, who repre-sents Ohio District 27, which in-cludes Anderson Township, vot-ed against this resolution. Hewas the only Republican repre-sentative to do so.’

J.E.D.

“The United States must takea leadership role to bring worldpowers together to establishsafe zone(s) within the Syrianrefugees’ homeland providing asafe haven from enemies. In-volve the UN in policing thesesafe zones to protect refugeeswhile not jeopardizing anyAmerican on American soil.This process would also make iteasy for refugees to reclaimtheir homeland when the crisisends.

“The U.S. must step up ourleadership role in working withall parties to find a political solu-tion to the Syrian War. It will re-quire moral leaders, with the po-litical will, working fromstrength to end this war. Politicsmust be removed from the proc-ess, e.g., the ‘political class’ whodo not have the political will tofind a real solution. There is noplace for the ill informed andothers that have hidden agen-

das, including the likes of ourown current state representa-tive from District 27, Mr. TomBrinkman, who voted against areferendum (H.C.R. No. 31), de-signed to send a message toPresident Obama to keep Syrianrefugees out of the USA andOhio.

“With the vast majority of cit-izens being against bringing Syr-ian refugees to America, whydoes so many of the politicalclass keep pushing forward? Onthe surface none of this seems tomakes sense, especially consid-ering recent reports of Syrianrefugees, here and abroad, be-ing arrested for suspected ter-ror activity or other chargessuch as rape as in Germany.

Without doubt, this is a hu-manitarian issue; however isthere something far more sinis-ter. What about the money trail?Who is in line to gain from Syri-ans refugees coming to Ameri-ca?”

M.W.N.

“With current immigrationnumbers already at a recordhigh, with surging deficits, aweak economy and increasingterror threats, allowing refu-gees into our country that theFBI and officials at the Depart-ment of Homeland Security ad-mit can not be properly vetted, isjust crazy.

“What seems just as crazy isthat one of our State Reps, TomBrinkman Jr. voted to allowthem in. In a November OhioHouse vote, Mr. Brinkman wasthe only ‘no’ on a resolution tourge President Obama to pre-vent the resettlement of Syrianrefugees to the United States orto Ohio. As the 1999 founder ofCOAST (Coalition Opposed toAdditional Spending and Taxes),one would think Mr. Brinkmanwould have done his homework.If he did, he would have foundthat 97 percent of recent MiddleEastern refugees are on someform of government assistance,91 percent are on food stampsand 73 percent receive freehealth care. He would have dis-covered that admitting theplanned 85,000 refugees willcost taxpayers $55 billion. Vot-ing against something thatwould help keep Ohioans safeand would keep from addingeven more to our country's cur-rent deficit is not how an electedofficial should be representinghis constituents.

‘I also read that the CatholicCharities stand to make millionsoff of the influx of refugees, butI'll save my complaints aboutthat for another time.”

CH@TROOM

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONWhat do you think of the Wis-consin Interscholastic AthleticAssociation’s decision to bancheers it deems disrespectful ortaunting toward opposingteams and athletes?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via email. Send youranswers [email protected] withCh@troom in the subject line.

I had the pleasure of attend-ing the Hamilton County Re-publican Party ExecutiveCommittee meeting Jan. 7. Atthe end of the meeting, I wastold by someone that Joe De-ters is now my “enemy forlife,” but I didn’t start the fire,Mr. Deters did.

I used to be a gun rightsactivist. I’m still a very strongSecond Amendment supporterand I own a gun shop in thegreater Cincinnati area. I’vealways admired Mr. Deters forbeing a strong supporter of theSecond Amendment as well. Iremember hearing a storyabout a perp who robbed ajewelry store and then ran outand the owner of the shop shotthe guy as he was runningaway. The store owner didn’t

get chargedwith a crime.

Mr. Deterswas asked at apress confer-ence how farsomeone canrun, still getshot, and theshooter not becharged. Hesaid, “In Ham-ilton County,

pretty damn far.”As a gun guy and someone

who carries a firearm on adaily basis to protect myselfand my family, I can respectthat.

Over the past year, howev-er, Joe Deters has lost myrespect.

I watched, cringing, during

the press conference after theindictment of Officer RayTensing. The pandering, politi-cal correctness and posturingwas unbearable. Some of thethings he said made my bloodboil. All this political theater toquell the threat of riots and tokeep the “Black Lives Matter”protesters at bay. Mr. Detersplayed judge, jury and execu-tioner and his words guaranteethat Tensing will never receivea fair trial in Hamilton County.It was a really sad thing to see.

Then I was watching TVone day last fall and a commer-cial for Responsible Ohio, themarijuana amendment, comeson and who is endorsing ameasure that adds a monopolyto the Ohio Constitution? Whyit’s none other than Mr. Deters

once again. More respect lost.How can someone who con-

siders himself a conservativesupport a measure such asthis?

The final nail in the coffincame during the last few daysleading up to the Novemberelection. I live in SpringfieldTownship I decided to run fortownship trustee against 20-year incumbent Gwen McFar-lin, a Democrat. I was the en-dorsed Republican candidate.Imagine my surprise when Isee a postcard in my mailboxfrom my opponent that in-cludes a picture of her withDeters, and a quote from himunder the picture saying tovote for my opponent Nov. 3.

So, back to the executivecommittee meeting. I took a

handout that outlined all thesethings, and gave one to each ofthe members of the committeeas they entered the room. Be-fore the endorsement vote, Imade a motion to have himremoved from the list of en-dorsed candidates. The motionwas seconded and about 10people voted with me.

If he doesn’t respect theendorsement process andsupport the endorsed candi-dates, which is a requirementin the party constitution, thenhe doesn’t deserve to receivean endorsement .

Kyle Hufford is a boardmember of the Cincinnati TeaParty, Republican Ward chairin Springfield Township andpresident of the SpringfieldTownship Republican Club.

You just accepted yourfirst career position and won-der - how do you set yourselfup for success? Career suc-cess is something that is man-aged from the beginning ofyour working life. Here areseveral suggestions to getyou started in the right direc-tion.

Find a leader in yourcompany or career field

People emulate what issuccessful and proven be-cause it works. Observe andyou will find role models allaround you. Who stands outfrom the others by principle,leadership skills or otherattributes that you and othersadmire? What particularcharacteristics could youpattern yourself after thatalign with your personality?

Get to know people inyour organization

If your interest is in man-agement one day, don’t waituntil an opening is availableto start mixing with otherstaff members and the man-agement team. Managementis always looking at employ-ees to determine who will fillthe next position. Ask othersto lunch from different de-partments to get to knowthem better. Learn what theirresponsibilities are. Under-stand how the whole opera-tion works because yourskills may create an opportu-nity tomorrow that does notexist today.

Network with other pro-fessionals

Your organization mayhave several locations andeven be global. This maybring you in contact withother team members, ven-dors, or customers over awide geographic area. Takeadvantage of LinkedIn, Face-book, Twitter and other socialmedia to grow your network.Professional associations,both local and on-line, pro-vide another opportunity. Inshort, let others know you,your talents, and professionalaspirations.

Volunteer for projectsthat involve teams

pand yourknowledge ofthe total oper-ation, subjectyou to yourco-workers,provide achance toshow anddevelop lead-ership skills -all excellent.Also, it is a

MONFORT HEIGHTS - In asport like basketball — popularfor its pace, athleticism, move-ment and even elegance — con-sistency is paramount. It onlyarrives with time. Few under-stand that more than longtimeLa Salle High School basketballcoach Dan Fleming.

In each of the last two sea-sons, Fleming’s teams havefound themselves victims ofcircumstance. With the footballteam winning back-to-backstate championships, travers-ing a schedule into early De-cember, it meant the basketballteam was forced to try and findthat consistency with five guysstill wearing football pads.

It’s a good problem to have.It’s also something you won’thear Fleming, or any otherLancers for that matter, com-plain about.

“Patience isn’t one of mystrong suits,” said Fleming,whose team started the seasonwith wins in 10 of its first 12 out-ings. “We’ve literally only prac-ticed together for a week. Be-

fore Christmas, barely any-thing (as a whole team). SinceJan. 4 we’ve really had time topractice together … I thinkwe’re headed in the right direc-tion; I wish we’d just hurry upand get there a little quicker.”

La Salle, ranked No. 5 in TheEnquirer Division I coaches’poll, returned all five startersthis season from a district-run-ner up team that went 20-6 ayear ago. When the season’sfirst Associated Press state

poll was released Jan. 12, LaSalle came in at No. 13, behindlocals Moeller (No. 4), Wilming-ton (No. 6) and Elder (No. 10).

“We’ve been able to pull outsome games,” said Fleming,who joined the 400-win clublast season. “We’ve had somemoments where we’ve playedreally well. We just haven’t hadlong stretches (playing at thatlevel) … we have to put somemeaningful games and minutestogether quarter-by-quarter.”

At presstime, the Lancers’only losses both came on theroad to Elder, 56-50, and in thechampionship of the Kingdomof the Sun holiday tournamentin Ocala, Fla. The latter waswithout junior guard CJ Flem-ing, a Bellarmine commit,who’s leading the GreaterCatholic League South in scor-ing (19.4) for the second year ina row.

Coach Fleming said his sonis healthy, but if his word isn’tenough, CJ scored 82 points inthe four games following hisone-game absence. He’s alsoshooting at a ridiculous clip,making 55 percent from thefield, 50 percent from 3-pointand better than 86 percentfrom the foul line.

After Fleming, the Lancershave struggled with consisten-cy in the scoring department.Senior guard Jeremy Larkin isposting 10.4 points and juniorguard Tre Crigler adds 8.7points per game.

“We have a guy one nighthave a decent game, we haveanother guy another night, then

WESTERN HILLS – Youthisn’t necessarily a bad thing.Take a gander at GambleMontessori’s girls basketballteam and you’ll begin to un-derstand why.

The youth doesn’t only ap-ply to its roster, but also to theprogram. The Gators haveonly had a team for five sea-sons, and this year they setout to improve upon last sea-son’s record-setting 12 wins.

Gamble already has ninewins in 13 tries this season andthe Gators have yet to lose(6-0) to an Ohio Valley Athlet-ic League opponent. Last sea-son, the Gators finished sec-ond in the league.

“We are extremely young,”said first-year coach DavidHardman, who was an assis-tant coach last season at Wal-nut Hills and the head coachat Aiken the year prior. “Weonly have one junior, the restare sophomores and fresh-man.

“They’ve come togetherand battled adversity. Whenthings have gotten tough theyhaven’t hung their heads;they’re dedicated to whatthey’re doing.”

Sophomore twins, Sylviaand Vivian Parker, both postplayers, have dominated thepaint each of the last two sea-sons. This year, Sylvia is aver-aging 9.9 points, 8.7 reboundsand 3.4 steals per night. Vivi-an posts 9.2 points, 6.6 boardsand 3.3 steals.

“They can do everything,”Hardman said of the Parkertwins. “They have the ability.I can put them in any position.They can handle the ball, re-bound, block shots. If I needthem to play the point, theycan play the point. If I need

them down low, they can playdown low.”

Sophomore Aig’ne Cliffordand freshman Simone Christ-mon run the offense and han-dle the ball. Clifford averages9.9 points and 1.9 assists pergame. Christmon is still learn-ing the game, but she’s aver-aging 8.2 points. SophomoreSakiyah Flanigan has playedwell in limited time with 10.3points per game.

“This is (Simone’s) firstyear of varsity basketball,”Hardman said. “We’ve sort ofthrown her to the wolves at aposition she’s not used to play-ing. I’m pretty pleased withwhat she’s offering; she’s han-dling the pressure and thespotlight.”

Because they’re so young,Hardman said a lot of whatthey’ve done this season ishammer home the basics ofthe game.

“We’ve went back to funda-mentals, ball handling, shoot-ing drills, some of the things alot of coaches take for grant-ed,” said Hardman. “We’vegone back and tried to perfectthe basics. In doing so, we’vebeen a lot more successful do-ing the simple things, not try-ing to be too complex.”

After his team lost to Pur-cell Marian on Dec. 31, Hard-man said they sat down andtalked about goals.

“We talked about wherethey want to be,” he said.“(And they told Hardman) Wewant to win the conferenceand finish the season without(another) loss … then actuallywin the first tournamentgame (in school history).That’s our goal, that’s whatwe’re striving to do.”

Gamble is back in actionJan. 22 with a big conferenceroad game at Miami ValleyChristian.

PRICE HILL - As the grap-pling schedule heats up, so dothe mats at Elder High School.Coach Jason Roush said he’s in-structed his Panthers, rankedNo. 4 in The Enquirer Division Icoaches’ poll, to stay hungryheading toward the rapidly-ap-proaching month of champions.

“We often tell the kids: it’snot how you start it’s how youfinish,” said Roush, who’s in histhird season with the Panthers.“We have a lot of big competi-tions here at the end of the sea-son. Everything up until sec-tionals and districts is in prep-aration of state. Last year wehad six state qualifiers and analternate. I think as a teamthey’re really buying into that(again).”

Elder was one of the bestdual teams in the state last year,winning a regional champion-ship. With most of its startersfrom last year back, the Pan-thers have only lost one dualmatch (35-30 against Moeller)so far, and they’ve wrestledwell in several major tourna-ments.

Elder took third place at theGlenn Sample Coaches Classic— one of the areas biggest andmost competitive tournaments— with two individual champi-ons in sophomores Austin Mur-phy at 126 pounds and Ti’RicEvans at 170.

“(Evans and Murphy) are thefirst Coaches Classic individualchamps we’ve had in fouryears,” said Roush. “To havetwo in the same year was nice.”

Nino Salamone and ConnorCraig took second place in theirrespective weight classes at theCoaches Classic. Roush hasbeen impressed with Salamonethis season: “He went from notplacing at the Coaches Classiclast year to making the finalsthis year.”

The Panthers then traveledto Brecksville-BroadviewHeights' tournament, an eventRoush called “the toughest

tournament on the schedule,”perhaps the toughest in Ohio af-ter the Ironman. At Brecks-ville, Murphy took third placeand he avenged his only loss ofthe season in dominant fashion(as of Jan. 15); Evans tookfourth after a close loss to thedefending state champ; Craigfinished fifth at 145; sophomoreAntonio McCloud entered un-seeded and took seventh.

Roush said it’s an honor forElder to host the Ohio CatholicInvitational Tournament Jan.16-17. The Fieldhouse, normallybasketball’s home, has beenoutfitted with four mats to helpaccommodate the action and 28teams bearing down on VincentAvenue. Full coverage on themeet can be found on cincin-nati.com.

Senior co-captain Sam Wil-liams, who took third place atthe Coaches Classic, is fivewins away from 100 for his ca-reer heading into the CIT.

Roush said he’s been im-pressed with the entire lineup,

but Williams, Murphy, Evans,Craig and McCloud have stoodout in the midst of “great” sea-sons. He’s also been pleasantlysurprised by freshman 113-pounder D.J. Melillo, an Elderkids club wrestler growing up,Roush said he’s “jumped levelsevery single week.”

With a deep roster that in-cludes five returning statequalifiers and numerous dis-trict qualifiers, Elder looksprimed for another successfulsecond half. But the Panthersrealize it’s about buildingsteam, confidence and momen-tum as the matches increase indifficulty. How the Pantherswrestle heading into the post-season will likely determinetheir performance as the lightsget bigger and brighter.

Its last two dual matches be-fore the state team duals comeat home Jan. 22 against Harri-son (ranked No. 8) and Jan. 23versus Fairfield (No. 3). BishopFenwick hosts the GCL tourna-ment Feb. 6.

we can’t find them again,”said Fleming. “I think ourlack of consistency is ourmost frustrating thing. Wecan’t be all over the board,where a guy has 18 and thenfour. That’s the mark of agood team and that’s wherewe need to get to.”

Fleming also hopes theconsistency creeps into hisdefense, which he said hasbeen good, not exceptional.

“As good of defensiveplayers as they’ve been as ju-niors and sophomores, Ithought they’d be better,”said Fleming.

The good news is the Lanc-ers have ample opportunitiesthis month to find theirrhythm. After CommunityPress print deadlines, LaSalle hosted St. Xavier (Jan.15), then Purcell Marian (Jan.16) before visiting Oak Hills(Jan. 19). Then La Salle has afour-game home standagainst Moeller (Jan. 22),Turpin (Jan. 26), Elder (Jan.29) and Walnut Hills (Jan. 30).

ing about how they havescammed many young peopleinto buying broken or falselyadvertised items.”

Ohio Attorney General MikeDeWine says in 2015 his officereceived about 30 complaints

from people who said theybought a puppy or other petonline, but never receivedanything in return. The aver-age loss to consumers wasabout $1,200.

As was the case with Jason,the key to stopping this fraudis to ask to see the item beingsold in person before you makeany payments. Just seeing apicture of the item or the pup-py online is not enough to pro-tect you from these scammers.

DeWine says, “In a typicalpuppy scam a consumer findsan ad for a puppy online. Theconsumer communicates withthe seller, agrees to buy the

puppy, and eventually wires afew hundred dollars to havethe puppy delivered.”

Rather than receiving thepuppy the consumer gets ademand for more money toeither to pay for insurance ortransportation costs. If theconsumer doesn’t pay the sell-er may threaten to turn him infor animal abuse.

Research any breeders andsellers carefully before youagree to buy anything. Re-member, Jason says when hedid a little checking he startedhearing about many otherswho were also scammed. Ifyou can’t find anything about a

breeder you need to be skepti-cal because the attorney gener-al says some scam artistschange names regularly totrick consumers.

When it comes to puppies,be sure to see it first and try totake it to an independent veter-inarian for a health exam be-fore agreeing to buy it. Finally,never wire money to a strang-er because it is next to impos-sible to get it back if there’s afraud.

LENTEN FISH FRIES

Twenty years ago an idea was bornin the minds of the cubmaster and as-sistant cubmaster of Our Lady of Vic-tory’s Cub Scout Pack 909: an eventdesigned to teach the Cub Scouts thatthey can provide community serviceand raise funds for charity through anannual charity carnival.

The 20th Annual Charity Carnivalwill take place from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m.Friday, Jan. 29, in the Our Lady of Vic-tory Convocation Center Main Hall.There will be children’s games, a cakewalk, refreshments including pizza,soft drinks, popcorn and cotton candy.The children’s games (such as ringtoss, candy grab, tic-tac-toe, bean bagtoss, etc...) will be run by the boys inCub Scout Pack 909 (with parental su-pervision).

This year the major award is an

iPad Mini as well as other prize bas-kets raffled that evening.

For more than 20 years the carnivalhas raised funds to help local familiesin times of need. Proceeds have beenused to provide Christmas presentsfor children in a family where bothparents had lost their jobs; purchasedmajor appliances for a family in fi-nancial difficulty, and paid for medi-cal expenses for others. Carnival pro-ceeds are also used to help cover thecost of meals the Pack serves once permonth to a shelter in Downtown Cin-cinnati.

None of the proceeds from thecharity carnival are used for opera-tions of the Cub Scout Pack.
