People who arriveearly will be able to parkinoneof themorethan500spots in the lot off SouthLicking Pike. The lot im-mediatelynext to thetech-nology center and the ath-letic complex will bewhere ceremonies willhappen, and will not openuntil 6 p.m.

Overflow parking willopenat 3:30p.m. alongoneside of oldU.S. 27 south ofCamel Crossing and theschool. The county hasagreed to close a stretchofroadtemporarilytoBobHuber Drive.

A shuttle bus also willoperate from Reiley Ele-

mentary School. The shut-tle will run until everyonegetsback to theircarafterthe game, she said.

Tickets are being soldnow. People who buyticketsprior togamenightwill not have to wait in asecond line to buy ticketswhen they arrive, Pohl-geers said.

The stadium’s capacityis 3,700 people.

“We will take it tostanding room capacity,so people could find them-selves standing on thetrack, so we really do en-courage people to getthere early.”

Starting linebackerand senior Joe Kremer ofCalifornia said he is look-ing forward to walkingright outside of the lockerroom and not have to getonto the bus for a homegame. “Now it’s really ourhome turf,” he said.

AthleticDirectorSteveHensley said the trackteam and football teamshaven’t really had a homeevent in 17 years. Soccerteams will also use thenew athletic complex andthe synthetic turf field isalso a boost for the physi-cal education and bandclasses, Hensley said.

“I think the field’sgreat, and don’t even getme started about the newscoreboard,” said ZachSchneider, a senior soccerplayer of Alexandria.

Schneider said thescoreboard is hooked upfor instant replay andthere are three differentcameras on the field.

“I’m excited to run thenew track, just to be a sen-ior and one of the firstones to run on it,” saidtrack sprinter and longjumperMeredithDonogh-ue of Highland Heights.

The restaurants serv-ing food at the Taste in-clude:

» Pasquale’s Pizza ofBellevue,

» The Elusive CowCafe of Bellevue,

»Marco’s Pizza Storeof Bellevue,

» Beef ‘O’ Brady’s ofNewport,

»Mr. Herb’s Restau-rant of Alexandria,

» Candy and Cones ofAlexandria, and

»Mokka of Newport.The schedule of music

was scaled back to Camp-bell County, Buschle said.

The idea is to make itan annual event andspread booths out acrossthe Vets property – andnot just the parking lot,she said.

“Hopefully as it getsbigger and bigger we’llhave to use the wholefield,” Buschle said.

There is no admissionto the taste, but each res-taurant booth will be sell-ing their own specialties.

“Each booth can haveone specialty item for $4,and then everything else

behind the club whereyouth teams play homegames.

The idea for the tastefundraiser started withthe goal of it being anevent for Northern Ken-tucky restaurants, but it

and entertainment willbe:

» Friday, Aug. 30: DJJoe Barns from 5-8 p.m.;and Rapid Fire from 8-10p.m.

» Saturday, Aug. 31:Fort Thomas based Tallu-lah’s Belly Dance Studiowill perform from 3-4p.m.; DJ Ray from 4-8p.m.; and Kyle Ryan willperform an Elvis tributefrom 8-10 p.m.

The Family NurturingCenter in Florence is host-ing its 19th annual AugustAffair, Boots &Heels: The

Remix.“Because of the suc-

According to JaneHerms, executive direc-tor of the center, morethan five children die ev-eryday in the U.S. as a re-

sult of child abuse.“Every single day,” she

said. “It iseveryadult’s re-sponsibility to protectchildren and confront allforms of child abuse andneglect. But this won’thappen until we changethe conversation fromfear and avoidance to fullawareness and discussionof the prevalence andsignsofabuse, thepreven-tion strategies and the re-sponse.”

The August Affairevent is focusedonraisingawareness.

Spring, has attended Au-gust Affair the last twoyears.

“Awareness of any is-sue is the first step to cre-ating a solution and mak-ingadifference,” shesaid.“I believe we need to dowhatwecanasasociety toprovidestable,safehomesfor children to grow up inand learn.

Fort Thomas —CharlotteReed jogs or “race walks”quicklytostay inshapebe-cause she can despite a vi-sual impairment.

The Fort Thomas resi-dent said she jogged in theCincinnati Association forthe Blind & VisuallyImpaired Aug. 11 KnowYou Can 5K because shesupports the organiza-tions’ goal to help peoplelive independent lives.

“I know I can,” Reedsaid. “It’s educating thepublic that I can.”

Reed was participatingin the 14th annual 5K forCABVI, a not-for-profit,for the third time. Shewasone of 420 people runningor joggingatSpringGroveCemeteryandArboretum.

Reed said she has somevision, but has CharlesBonnet Syndrome in addi-tiontoadifferentdegener-

ative eye disease.“Because of the

Charles Bonnet it lookslike I’m looking through astaticy TV screen as wellas having no central vi-sion,” she said.

Participating in other5K runs and walks issomething Reed said sheenjoys, and usually stay-ingoncourse isn’tmuchofan issue as long as she cansee other joggers.

At SpringGrove Ceme-terytherewereacoupleofforks in the road whereReed said she couldn’t al-ways see the cones. Shewasn’t sure of what direc-tion to go.

“Luckily at one pointtherewas a jogger comingup behind me and he said‘Hey, you’re going in thewrong direction’,” shesaid. “So Iwas able to shiftand go the right direc-tion.”

Reed said she walksregularly.

“You just stick on yoursneakers and head out thedoor,” she said. “So, I real-ly enjoy that.”

ReedisalsoaZumbain-structor at her church.

Her ultimate 5K goal isto “race walk” solo in theCincinnati Flying Pig halfmarathon next spring.

“My husband says hedoesn’t wantme to run be-cause he is afraid I’m go-ing to hurt myself, but Itell him I almost go as fastasmost joggers,” she said.

Reed said she volun-teers for CABVI to giveback, but has also used theservices for low visionhelp including havingthem train her how to useher iPhone initially.

“I have also recentlylearned Braille here be-cause I’ve gotten to thatpoint where I felt like Ineed that,” she said.

Reed said she believesinCABVI’smission tohelppeople live independently.

She has had to work toovercome other people’sperceptions about whatblind and visually im-pairedpeople canandcan-not do.

Moving at age 19 fromStockton, Calif., Reed said

she first came to the areaas student at NorthernKentucky University.

“I got my bachelor’s offine arts from NKU andbecameaprofessional art-ist and teacher despite be-ing told that visually im-

pairedpeoplecouldbeart-ists,” she said. “I said ‘I’llshow you,’ and I did.”

Reed has taught pri-vately and in the summerenrichment program atFort Thomas IndependentSchools,andhasworkedatBakerHuntArt&CulturalCenter in Covington. Shealso volunteers with theEveryone Counts pro-grams in schools speakingwith elementary students.

“I’ve really enjoyed do-ing that because it’s an op-portunity to show the kidsI’m standing here, I’m anartist and I do 5Ks and thegets really excited andthey ask all kinds of crazyquestions,” Reed said.

It’s fun to watch thechildren go oh, she said,and make a connectionpeople with disabilities orchallenges can domany ofthe same things they do.

“Theymayjustdothemin a different way,” Reedsaid.

Is your business engagedin education? As a businessyoucansupport theeducationpipeline and be a key partnerfor student success.

Simply put, successful stu-dents equal a quality futureworkforce. Not sure how toget involved? Now there is anew business engagementtoolkit thatemployerscanuseto help them focus their ef-forts.

“Our company has beencommitted to education for anumber of years, but now wehave a new toolkit that pro-vides us with concrete infor-mation about programs thathave measurable results anddemonstrated impact in ourschools,” said Jean Loftus ofLoftus Plastic Surgery. “Wewant our commitment of timeand resources to make a realdifference, and having thistoolkit makes it possible to doso.”

This year, the NorthernKentucky Education Coun-cil’s volunteer Action Teamthat focuses on business en-gagement developed the tool-kit which outlines ways inwhich a business can help im-pact student achievement.

The toolkit provides con-cise program overviews, suc-cess stories, and ways to getinvolved.Byusing the toolkit,businesses can easily matchtheir available resources andareas of interestwith specificprograms and initiatives.

Graphic design for thetoolkit was made possible byestablishing a unique collabo-rationwithThomasMoreCol-lege’s Art Department. Assis-tantProfessorRebeccaRuehlAmann and her students do-nated both time and talent totheproject for thegraphicde-sign.

The Action Team, com-prised of business, educationand community leaders, iscurrentlydevelopingastrate-gicdistributionplan toget thetoolkit into “the hands” ofbusiness leaders.

In partnership with theNorthernKentucky Chamberof Commerce, the team isidentifying local companiesthatmay be interested in con-necting with neighboringschools and engaging in tool-

kit programs.Melanie Frey, regional

business manager for TurnerConstruction and cochair ofthe Action Team, said, “Theinvolvement of local busi-nesses in high impact educa-tion initiatives is critical tothe economic prosperity ofour region.Ourbusinesscom-munity requires a preparedworkforce which requires acommunity-wide investmentand the support and engage-ment of local businesses ineducation. This toolkit showsemployers how to do that ef-fectively.”

For instance, a JuniorAchievement section helpscorporate and communityvolunteers promote work-force readiness througheasy--to-implement programs.

Business Education Suc-cess Teams can partner withlocal schools to support stu-dent needs and develop activ-ities that impact studentachievement.

ThroughOne-to-OneRead-ing, business and communityvolunteers can help strug-gling readers in first throughthird grade.

Underservice learning,or-ganizations can help studentsdevelopcriticalproblemsolv-ing skills, energize employ-ees and learn the benefits ofmeaningful civic engage-ment.

“Wearefocusedonhelpingeach one of our studentsreach their full potential andour business

partners play an essentialrole in the education of ouryouth,” said Dr. Terri Cox--Cruey,

superintendent of KentonCounty Schools and memberof Action Team 5. “With theirsupport,

our students will reachtheir college and careergoals.”

The toolkit was made pos-sible through a grant to Ac-tion Team 5 from Vision 2015.

InMay of last year, Coving-ton Latin High School releasedanother group of outstanding,high-achieving students intothe post-secondary world.

One of those students wasvaledictorianMalory Thelen.

Malory graduated fromhigh schoolwith a resumethat many ofus, with yearsof experiencein the work-force underour belts,could look tofor motiva-tion.

Dave The-len, Malory’s

grandfather, has been veryinvolved inMalory’s life fromthe beginning. He andMalo-ry’s mother, Terri, credit Mal-ory’s strong education founda-tion to her time spent in pre-school. (Author’s note: Daveand Terri have been very hum-ble about their own contribu-tion, which was also essential

to this wonder-ful girl’s myriadachievements.)

Her educa-tional journeybegan at Cathe-dral Child De-velopment Cen-ter, across thestreet from theCathedral Bas-ilica and Coving-

ton Latin. It was here thatMalory was offered aMon-tessori experience, and sheflourished. Terri notes, “Shehas always been a self-starter,and this was the perfect set-ting for her. She worked onassignments that she foundinteresting, mastered themandmoved on to the next chal-lenge… I really think her selfconfidence was enhancedduring her years at theMon-tessori school. Mike and Iwere so impressed with theprogram that Malory attendedkindergarten at the school.”

A quality environment

during the birth to 5 years of achild’s life is absolutely essen-tial to success later in life. TheCenter on the DevelopingChild at Harvard Universitypoints out in one edition of itsseries “InBrief: The Scienceof Early Childhood Devel-opment” that during the firstfew years of life, 700 newneural connections areformed every second. Earlylearning environments areplaces to grow a child’s cogni-tive, language, and social-emotional skills.

WhenMalory entered firstgrade at St. Pius X, she wasalready reading at third-gradereading level. Her grandfa-ther, Dave, writes “Her social,behavioral, and languageskills all were developed earlyin life at the age of 3.” Maloryhas continued to shine. At 12,she was the youngest volun-teer with the American Can-cer Society and Be Concerned(a Covington-based nonprofitassisting low-income North-ern Kentuckians in meetingbasic needs).

“Basically, it was regulartag, but I was always ‘it.’ Iremember one day in partic-ular when a newer student ranup to me during this game and

gaveme a big hug for lettinghim play with the older stu-dents. A simple game hadaccomplished something big-ger: I, along with the otherstudents, had fostered a senseof inclusiveness and fun inthat microculture of the play-ground.”

Early childhood investmentis gaining favor throughoutthe political spectrum. A re-cent Public Opinion Strategiesand Hart poll found that 60percent of Republicans, 64percent of independents, and84 percent of Democrats sup-port a federal plan that helpsstates provide better earlychildhood education programsto low- andmiddle-incomefamilies without increasingdebt.

Transylvania University isnow fortunate enough to hostMalory through the nextphase of her education. She istaking general studies rightnow, and her inspiring writingcan be found on the studentblog, Write on Broadwayhttp://beapioneer.wordpress.com/.

On Saturday, Aug. 3, at theannual Fancy Farm picnic infar western Kentucky, Sen.Mitch McConnell and his twoleading challengers – TeaParty candidate Matt Bevinand 34-year-old DemocratSecretary of State AlisonLundergan Grimes – took thethree inside positions.

McConnellshould haveconcerns outof the gatewith a 51percent dis-approval, andbeing neck-and-neckwith Grimesin two recentpolls. Hehandled thechallengers

with tactics from a veteran’scampaign playbook and herealizes their handicaps.

As McConnell approachedthe podium, roughly equallysized crowds representingMcConnell and Grimes re-flected the polls, yelling al-ternatively, “WeWant Mitch”and “Ditch Mitch.” He re-fused to formally acknowl-edge either challenger (Bevinwhatsoever), and insteadreminded the audience of thecommonwealth’s disdain forDemocratic leadership.

His speech cast him as acandidate against Obama,Pelosi or Reid, not Grimes.“Every liberal in America isout to beat us,” he said, point-ing at the stable of Demo-crats who he said standagainst coal, against liberties,and against lower taxes.

In courting the state’sindependent voters, he subtlytouted his influence in theSenate chamber that wouldbe lost if he were replaced,saying you can’t take care ofnational issues for Kentuckyfrom the back-bench.

Grimes is a more-than-formidable candidate hand-

picked by the establishment.As a fairly new political facewith great potential, she’staking the classic outsider’sstrategy against what shecalls DC – the “DysfunctionalCapital.” Playing upMcCon-nell’s obstructionist labelwhile he looked on andsmirked inches away in thefirst chair, she declared withthe best jab of the afternoon,“If the doctors told SenatorMcConnell he had a kidneystone, he’d refuse to pass it.”

McConnell disappearedbefore insurgent Matt Bevinintroduced himself to thestate. Bevin is a Kentuckyimmigrant and first-timecandidate who might developa niche following with sup-port from unique places. Cansuch a challenger defeat anestablishment figure? AskRand Paul, the newcomerwho ran under the Tea Partybanner in 2010 to defeatMcConnell’s hand-pickedcandidate.

Both challengers bene-fited from the Fancy Farmstage, but they are on a Ken-tucky raceway familiar to theexperiencedMcConnell since1984. In a state with a closedprimary and an early regis-tration deadline, Bevin willhave challenges in earningcrossover support.

Grimes has created herownmuddy track. Last week,Politico revealed five issuesshe refused to discuss,though her party has takenclear positions on the same.She must run from her lead-ers and from their views,while simultaneously con-vincing conservative andmoderate Kentucky voterswhy they should support her.You can bet the old war horsewill soon exploit his oppo-nent’s uncertain start to avoidthat one fateful career loss.

As I travel the state, I amfrequently asked what I cando about high gas prices andprice fluctuations across the

common-wealth.

I under-stand the frus-tration withhigh gasprices. I un-derstand howtough it is onhard-workingfamilies. Noone wants tochoose be-

tween filling up the gas tankor putting food on the table orpaying a bill. Andmany of usrely on our vehicles to get towork, so that we can pay ourbills. Be assured, protectingKentucky consumers at thegas pumps is a top priority ofmine.

So, why are gas prices inparts of Kentucky between 12and 20 cents higher on aver-age? In 2008, we launched aninvestigation into the whole-

sale price of gasoline.Our experts uncovered

strong data to suggest thatMarathon’s acquisition ofAshland Oil in the late 1990snegatively impacted competi-tion in the wholesale gasolinemarket in Kentucky. In otherwords, our investigation in-dicatedMarathon has a re-gional monopoly that allows itto manipulate gas prices at thewholesale level. Even afterapproving the merger in the1990s, the Federal Trade Com-mission (FTC) warned that ofthe nine states involved in themerger, one state bears watch-ing – that was Kentucky.

Marathon, which bases itsprices off of the Chicago SpotMarket, is the dominant sup-plier of gas to retailers whosell that gas in Kentucky. InLouisville and Northern Ken-tucky, where the Environ-mental Protection Agency(EPA) mandates that reformu-lated gas (RFG)must be used,it supplies nearly 100 percentof the wholesale RFG.Wheth-

er you buy gas at a Chevronstation, BP or Thornton’s, youare likely buyingMarathongas. EPA requirements ac-count for about a 10-cent in-crease in the price of reformu-lated gas. Our investigationshows the monopoly accountsfor the additional 5 to 10 centdifference.

After we completed ourinvestigation in 2008, we pro-vided then FTC Chairman JonLeibowitz with our findingsbecause this is an antitrustissue that falls under theFTC’s jurisdiction. The FTCdid nothing. We evenmade ourcase to the U.S. Attorney Gen-eral and the Justice Depart-ment’s Oil and Gas PriceFraudWorking Group. Again,federal regulators have donenothing to addressMarathon’sdominant position in Ken-tucky.

I refuse to let this matterrest.

ALEXANDRIA — There is notmuch tradition in Bishop Bros-sart’s football program, whichis understandable for a pro-gram entering just its seventhseason.

TheMustangs hope to createa tradition under new headcoach Lee Teegarden, who tookover in January as just the thirdcoach in the program’s briefhistory. The team is coming offof a disappointing 1-9 season,but is just three years removedfrom its last winning season.The goal this year is to recordthe second winning season inprogram history.

“A winning season wouldmake this a very successfultransition for the program,”said Teegarden.

The foundation is there.Brossart has enjoyed successandwon state championships inother sports. Football is still rel-atively new to the community,but there is excitement andsup-port for Mustangs football.

“The Brossart communityworks really well for the kids,”saidTeegarden.“Wereallyhavethe potential for great successhere.”

It helped that Teegarden andhis staff joined the program inJanuary. They had time to im-plement changes right away,rather than wait until the play-ers put on pads in August.

“Wemadea lot of progress inthe weight room and we wereable to install some things in thespring,” said Teegarden.

The biggest changes to theprogram go beyondX’s and O’s.Teegarden’s first order of busi-

ness was to instill his style ofdiscipline, which affects theplayers on the field and in theclassroom.

“Theguyshavehad to learnadifferent way of life,” said Tee-garden, the former head coachat Pendleton County. “We have

increased their conditioning,discipline and expectations.”

Nine seniors return, eight ofwhom started last year. Quar-terback Casey Pelgen leads theoffense out of the shotgun. TheMustangs aim to be very bal-anced on offense. Running

back/defensive back Sean Tie-man, wide receiver/defensiveback Quinn O’Bryan, tight end/defensive end Austin Shannon,and offensive/defensive line-man Charlie Britt also providesenior leadership. The defenseis based out of a 5-2 slant front,

but with athletic ends who candrop into a 3-4 scheme.

The Mustangs will have oneof the more experienced teamsin their district, but know that itwill be a challenge to competewith Class 2A powers HolyCross and Newport CentralCatholic. The young program isstill seeking an identity, andhopes that it can find one underthe formerRyleHighSchool of-fensive coordinator.

“It’s up to us to go out thisyear and begin to make achange,” said Teegarden.

ALEXANDRIA — Excitementfor the 2013 high school footballseason has been building for along time in Alexandria.

Campbell County HighSchool will play its first seasonin its new, on-campus, stadium.TheCamelsweresoexcitedthatthey did not waste a minute insharing this season with thecommunity, hosting a midnightpractice under their new lightson Aug. 1.

The new stadium coincideswith head coach Stephen Lick-ert’s third year leading the pro-gram. After successfully turn-ing around programs at Daytonand Holmes, where he spentthree years each before comingto CCHS, Lickert has the Cam-els in a position to reach heightsthe program has not seen inmany years. The Camels havewon district championships ineach of Lickert’s first two sea-sons, and now have their sightsset on a three-peat and a deeperrun in the postseason.

“Our team goals are to winthe district, win two playoffgames, and compete in everygame,” said Lickert. “We have avery tough district, but we feelwe have a very good chance tocompete.”

The team’s success in 2013will hinge largely on who stepsuptofill thecleats leftbygradu-ated quarterback Tyler Dur-ham. Senior Avery Wood hasstarted at tight end the past twoseasons while backing up Dur-ham. He is competing in campwith junior Preston Spicer forthe starting quarterback spotthis year. Also in the mix is 6’7”sophomore Matt Wilson. It willtake a collaborative effort

among all 11 players on offenseto collectively replace Dur-ham’s numbers.

“We have to have all playerstake a role in replacing the pro-duction,” Lickert said. “Ourdepth could be an issue if we donot stayhealthy.Wehavea lotoftalent to replace.”

Although there are key play-ers to replace, the Camels whowillbechargedwithsteppingupnow have multiple years of ex-perience inLickert’ssystem.In-stead of spending time in prac-tice teaching new concepts, thecoaching staff can now plug innewstarters andexpect themtoproduce immediately.

“This is the third year in theoffensive,defensiveandspecialteams systems so our kids cannow perfect the intricacies ofthe systems,” said Lickert. “Weare much faster and more ath-

letic than last year and with theexperience of so many kidsplaying last year we should beable to pickupwherewe left offand continue to improve.”

Lineman Patrick Berke-meyer, linebacker Joe Kremer,andstrongsafetyDustinTurnerprovidesenior leadershiponde-fense. Wide receiver Jake Za-

bonick, linemanLoganSchneid-er, and running back AlexHow-ard join Wood in providing sen-ior leadership on offense.

The Camels open the seasonat the new Campbell CountyHighSchool StadiumonAug. 23against Newport, before facingLickert’s alma mater, High-lands.

NEWPORT—Aheadcoachingchange often comeswith otherchanges, whether it’s to theroster, depth chart or play-book.

Other than the man incharge, Newport CentralCatholic’s football program isnotgoing to lookverydifferentthan the 2012 edition led byEd-die Eviston. This year, DanWagner, a former assistant onEviston’s staff, takes over. TheThoroughbreds have an expe-rienced roster and a system inplace.

“We are using the same sys-tem as last year,” said Wagner.“The only change is the nameof the head coach. The coach-ing staff is back and has beenhere for a while.”

Not only are the ‘Breds ex-perienced this year, but theteam has depth, somethingthat is often elusive for Class2A teams. Jack Sutkamp, TylerLyon, and Steve Brooks will beleaders on both sides of theball, but NewCath has playerswho will be able to impactgames on just one side of theball. Mac Franzen, Matt Lenz,JacobSmith,TommyDonnelly,and Nat Kling will contributeon offense,withWyattBoberg,John Caudill, Kalvin Moore,Mie Runyon, and Kole Zennileading the defense.

“We should be able to playmore players on both sides ofthe ball,” said Wagner. “Weshould be a little deeper thisyear.”

Brooks may be the mostphysical player on the team.

The offensive lineman andlinebackerwill need tobalanceplaying tough and stayinghealthy. The defensive line isthe biggest question mark en-tering the season. The offense,led by Franzen, should im-prove on last year’s numbers.The consistency on the coach-ing staff will no doubt help theThoroughbreds improve.

“It’s the same things as al-ways,” saidWagner. “Continuework hard, pay attention to de-tail, and take care of your as-signment.”

The schedule will prepare

NewCath for the postseason.Although one of the smallerschools in Northern Kentucky,the Thoroughbreds benefitfrom playing against some ofthe top competition the regionhas to offer. The program ishungry for another Class 2Astate championship andwill bebattle-tested by the time thepostseason comes around.

“After our first five gamesagainst stiff competition andlarger schools, we feel like wehave seen teams as good as anythat wewill see throughout theplayoffs,” said Wagner.

“They have harden-ed their hearts.” It’s aphrase used in both theOld and New Testa-ments in the Bible re-ferring to people acting

in waysthat arecontraryto God’sways. Weoftenmake themistakeof think-ing thatif webelievewhat theBiblesays this

phrase cannot refer tous.

Quite frankly thereare more “believers”inside churches withhardened hearts thanoutside. “How can thatbe?” Because althoughwe believe parts of theBible, we “harden ourhearts” to other parts,and refuse to believethat all of what God’sword says is true. And,when we are surprisedby God’s supernaturalpowers, our hearts arehard.

When our hearts arehardened to something,it simply means it re-fuses to consider, orthink on the possibil-ities. And whatever wedo consider or think on,is what our hearts aresoft or flexible to.

Think about it likethis. You are in desper-ate need of a job, andyour considerations andthoughts are constantlyabout how you are go-ing to pay your mort-gage/rent, feed yourfamily and simply stay

afloat. All seeminglylogical and appropriatethoughts for the situa-tion, yet what you arenot thinking about is avery real promise in theBible; “But my God willsupply all your needsaccording to his richesin glory by Christ Je-sus.”

Therefore, yourheart is hardened to thepromise of God, andsoft to the problems ofthis world. Youmay bethinking that God’sword has rarely cometo pass for you. Re-member this; the prom-ises of the Bible cannotcome to pass when theproblems of the worldare getting more of ourattention.

Recently, we beganposting “Promises forthe day/week” on ourrefrigerator. As thechildren grow olderthey are beginning toexperience the harsh-ness and negativity ofthe world and I desper-ately want them to

know that God has al-ready conquered thisworld and it is hispromises that help usnavigate in the day today.

However, a blip onthe news or commercialfor a vulgar sit-combefore I can grab theremote can quickly filltheir minds with the“things of the world.”So we are combatingwhat is going into ourminds with a promisefromGod’s word that isvisible for all the familyto see.

As you work to con-sider the promises ofGod and not the prob-lems of this world thisweek, I pray you areblessed with bountifulharvests and greatsuccess.

NOTICEPlease take notice that Duke Energy Kentucky, Inc. has applied to the Kentucky Public

Service Commission for approval to revise its Demand Side Management (DSM) rate for electricservice and gas service for residential and commercial customers and add new products for itsDSM program available to customers. Duke Energy Kentucky’s current monthly DSM rate forresidential gas customers is ($0.039396) per hundred cubic feet (ccf) and for non-residential gascustomers is $0.000000 per hundred cubic feet.

Duke Energy Kentucky seeks approval to revise these rates as follows: Duke EnergyKentucky’s monthly DSM rate for residential gas customers would increase to ($0.038919) perhundred cubic feet and for non-residential gas customers would remain at $0.000000 per hundredcubic feet.

A typical residential gas customer using 70 ccf in a month will see an increase of $0.03 or0.04%. A typical residential electric customer using 1000 kWh in a month will see an increase of$0.02 or 0.02%. A typical non-residential electric customer using 40 kilowatts and 14,000 kWhwill see an increase of $0.39 or 0.03%. Non-residential gas customers and non-residentialelectric customers served at transmission voltage will see no change in their bills from thisapplication.

Any corporation, association, body politic or person may by motion within thirty (30)days after publication or mailing of notice of the proposed rate changes, submit a written requestto intervene to the Public Service Commission, 211 Sower Boulevard, P.O.

Sueworked for PNC for 16years; after leaving PNCshe worked for the Camp-bell Co. Child Support Of-fice and retired in 1999.Tom worked for GE inEvendale for 17 years andthen worked at GladstoneLabs for 25 years and re-tired in 2000. They resid-ed in Dayton, Ky for mostof their married life andnow reside in Cold Spring.

As I’ve mentionedbefore, I know when arecipe hits a chord withreaders by the amountof response it generateslong after it’s published.This is particularly trueof seasonal recipes, likeroasted tomatoes.

This recipe is slightlydifferent from one Ishared last year. Toma-

toes are in season rightnow and the homegrown/best are abundant atfarmers’ markets.

As for me, my toma-toes are the best I’veever grown and sincemost of them are theindeterminate type, theykeep bearing all seasonlong. I’m not even be-grudging the ground-hogs eating their share,there’s that many! WhenI do find veggies andfruit that have beenbitten into by Mother

Nature’sclan, I justcut themup andfeed themto my girls(my chick-ens). Theymake aquick mealof them,

Toma-toes are full of lycopene,which is good for ourhearts, men’s prostatesand our immune system.Plus the yellow and or-

ange tomatoes have justas much nutrition astheir red counterparts.

Roasted regular-sizetomatoes withherbs (or not)

Preheat oven to 400-425 degrees. Cut toma-toes in half. Lay eithercut side up or down (Ilaid mine cut side downbut next time will laythem cut side up since Ithink that will keepmore of the tomato fla-vor in). Drizzle witholive oil and sprinkle onany herbs you like –basil, thyme, rosemaryall work well. But besure and chop them upfine. I also like to addsalt and pepper. Roastuntil skins start to lookspotty if you are roast-ing skin side up. Other-wise, roast until toma-toes look wrinkled andare soft.

Let cool and, if youlike, remove skins. Thefirst time I made them Ididn’t remove the skins,but when I used them incooked dishes they werea little tough. My sug-gestion is to removethem or put them in theblender or food proces-sor and the skins willprocess small enough.You will wind up withmore of a puree if youput them through theblender or food proces-sor, but the bonus is youget the nutritious bene-fits of the skin. Freeze in

desired quantities.

Roasted cherrytomatoes withherbs and garlic

This is nice sinceeverything is mixed in aboil and then just pouredonto a sprayed pan toroast. Delicious as a sidedish and, if you want tofreeze them, you caneither leave the skins on

(they may be a bit tough)or puree them as direct-ed above. Now you canalso roast these plain,with just a sprinkling ofsalt and pepper and oil.

Preheat oven to 400-425 degrees. For everypint of cherry or grapetomatoes, add a teaspoonof minced garlic, a driz-zle of olive oil to coatnicely, and salt and pep-per. Just mix this up in abowl. If you have anyherbs, again like basil,thyme or rosemary, chopup fine and add to taste.Pour onto sprayed bak-ing pan and roast untilskins look spotty and abit puffy, about 20 min-utes.

Baked potatonachos with secretingredient

For Bart L., who likesthis spicy appetizer atrestaurants but wants tomake them at home. Byboiling potatoes first,they bake up really nicein the oven. And thesecret ingredient thatmakes these so differ-ent? Ranch dressing!

10medium red or Yukongold potatoes

1 pouch ranch salad dressingJalapeño slices (optional)16 oz. shreddedMexicanblend or favorite cheese

16 oz. sour creamGreen onions or chives,sliced thin

Cook potatoes withskin on: cover with coldwater and a dash of salt.Bring to boil, reduceheat, cover and cook justuntil tender, about 15minutes. Drain and coolso that you can cut theminto thick slices. Preheatoven to 375 degrees.

Put slices in singlelayer on sprayed bakingsheets. Sprinkle eachwith the dressing mix,jalapeños, and thecheeses. Bake uncov-ered for 8-10 minutes oruntil cheese melts. Dol-lop with sour cream andonions or chives.

Question:My spring/summer garden didpoorly, but I have heardit’s also possible to planta fall and winter garden.

Is thistrue? Howand whenshould Ibegin thisproject?

An-swer:There isstill timeto plant afew thingswithoutwinter

protection or many moreif you construct a simplecold frame or just coverthe crops with some kindof frost protection.

It is not too late tocontinue to enjoy thegarden and add newplantings. A variety ofproduce can be grown inNorthern Kentuckygardens in the comingweeks, allowing freshitems to be availablewell into the fall.

The cooler nightsexperienced later in theyear as these vegetablesmature may increase thesugar content of manycrops and thus increasetheir quality. Coolernights also slow growth,however, so crops cantake longer to maturethan in the summer.Keep this slower pace inmind when you checkseeds for days to maturi-ty.

You need to plantlettuce seeds right awayfor a fall harvest. Trysome of the red, purple,yellow or spotted varie-ties for added color andfun. In addition, goahead and plant seedsnow for mustard greens,turnip greens and beetgreens. Also, betweennow and Sept. 1, maketwo staggered plantingsof spinach. Between nowand Sept. 15, make week-ly plantings of radishseeds for a prolongedharvest throughout thefall.

After planting thecrops mentioned above,

it’s time to build a simplecoldframe. All you needis 4 boards (2 by 12 inch-es) for the sides, andsome kind of clear plas-tic or glass for the roof.Old glass sliding doorsor old double-pane win-dows work great forthis.

Build your base to fitthe glass or plastic roof.Make the length what-ever you want, but keepthe width to about 4 feetso you can easily reachthe middle of the bedfrom each side withoutclimbing into the cold-frame. Put this “emptysandbox” on the ground,dig up the existing soil,add some compost or afew bags of potting mix,and plant in it. This willbe your cold frame.

Now, inside your cold-frame, you can plant allsorts of cool-seasonveggies: carrots, kale,collards, Bibb lettuce,turnips, kohlrabi, Chi-nese cabbage, Brusselssprouts, cabbage, cauli-flower, broccoli, spin-ach, radishes, turnips,beets, parsley, snowpeas and leaf lettuce.

You will enjoy har-vesting up until Christ-mas, and many of thesecrops will actually sur-vive the winter and startgrowing again in Febru-ary and March for anApril harvest. If youvent the roof about ½-1inch, your coldframe

will never get too hot.Otherwise, if it is kepttightly closed, the tem-perature inside willclimb to 100 degrees on asunny winter day. Venti-lation is essential toavoid high-temperaturedamage to the plantsgrowing inside the cold-frame.
