and volunteers to providerecreational outlets.

New coach, new style,new outlook.

The Clermont North-eastern High Schoolgirls soccer team has allthree. New head coachKristofer Asmus takesover a Rockets team thatwent 7-9-1 overall lastseason, including a 5-4-1mark in the SouthernBuckeye Conference Na-tional good for thirdplace.

He’s installing a 3-5-2scheme to help advancehis possession style.

“Most of our play isbased on our possessingthe ball and making the

other team chase usaround,” Asmus said.“Most of the girls havenever really played thissystem, so it’s taking a lit-tle time to get used to it.It’s a little more orga-nized in thebackandwithfive midfielders, that’sreally geared toward uskeeping possession.”

CNE will have foursenior captains providingexperience and leader-ship: Jackie Sullivan,Sydney Gacek, KylaToles and Jenny Erick-son. Sullivan was a firstteam all-SBC pick lastseason; Gacek and Tolesearned second-team hon-ors.

Older singlesmay behesitant to get assistancewith finding dates, lookingfor companionship, or a pos-sible long-relationship, espe-cially when dating is linkedwith the words computer orwebsite.

Using common sense andgood judgment, online datingis an aid for anyone thatfinds it difficult in findingother singles.

Basics of an online datingsite are that you go to thewebsite and register to use it.That normally involves an-swering some basic ques-tions and creating a shortprofile, which includes say-ing who you are looking for,giving some interests, andattaching photos.

Of themany online datingsites, most charge for theirservices, such as eHarmonyandMatch, which are heavilyadvertised. Beware of themany that advertise that youcan sign up and /or see yourmatches for free. However,most of themwill eventuallyrequire a fee if you want tosend amessage to someoneor reply to one.

There are several web-sites that will allow you toview photos, read profiles,approach someone and re-spond back if contacted. POF(Plenty of Fish), OKCupidand eVow are three. Try free

sites beforeusing a sitethatcharges.

Gener-ally, as aminimum, itwill ask foryour name,year ofbirth, loca-tion, height,

hair color and body type. Itmay ask for profession, in-come, sometimes only formatching purposes. Next, itwill ask you to write yourdating profile.

First, choose the nick-name youwant to use. Picksomething that describes yousuch as doglover45013 orluvdancing. Create a profileor answer the questions. Tellabout yourself. Tell what youare looking for in yourmatch. Put some time into it.Aim at getting the datingpossibilities you want. Bepositive. Revise it when nec-essary.

When attaching photos,use a clear head photo, a fullbody photo and some photosof you in an activity or hobby,such as hiking or attending aReds game. It is best to havesomeone take the photos.Don’t reveal toomuch forsafety reasons. Have some-one read your profile tocheck for correct spelling,

punctuation, grammar, andoverall clarity. You can usu-ally block smokers, the samegender as you, and those farfromwhere you live.

Use the search function tofind someone. A basic searchwill find singles based onhow far from your area youwill travel. Youmay alsosearch using age, body type,race, hair color and otherfactors.

If you see someone thatappeals to you, write a niceice-breakingmessage, whichperhapsmentions a commoninterest or something in theprofile that grabbed yourattention.

Youmay be contacted bysomeone first. If interestedin that person, take your timefor a good reply. If not in-terested, kindly say so. Sinceit is a dating site, and not apen-pal site, eventually it isbest to arrange to give tele-phone numbers or emailaddresses, or arrange ameeting when you are bothcomfortable with it

Overall, as in regulardating, you have to use com-mon sense and good judg-ment.

Meet at public placeswhere you feel comfortableand can have communica-tion. Don’t give your addressand ignore or block any re-quests formoney!

Aug. 13 questionDoyou think there is toomuch, or

not enough, government involve-ment in schools? Where do you seeit?

“Don’t you think there is far toomuch government involvement inour schools? I certainly do. Localschool boards, local school man-agement teams, local teachers andmost importantly local parents(OK most of them, not all) knowbest what is needed in our localschoolsso let’seliminateall federalintervention and a lot of the stateintervention too. While we’re at it,let’s eliminate the tenure system,but that’s another whole issue.

“No Student Left Behind wasandremainsoneof themost ill-con-ceived programs for schools andhasgravely injured the overall lev-elandqualityofactualeducating inour schools. Due to the gross over-reach of government involvement,our teachers spend far too muchtime ‘teaching to the test’ ratherthan teaching our kids how to learnandmore importantly, how to havea desire to question and learn.

“Michelle Obama’s attempt toforce healthy foods in schoollunches has increased the amountofwasted foodbecausekids simplywon’t eat it and some school sys-tems are passing on the federalmoneyprovidedfor foodprogramsbecause of it. Get out, govermentinterference in our schools! Wedon’t need you.”

M.J.F.

“I think Common Core shouldanswer that question.”

Dave D.

“I just have one thing to say.Where in our Constitution does it

say that our government is autho-rized tomeddle inorpay foreduca-tion?”

R.D.

“Once again the government isout of control.”

V.H.

“I do not think there is toomuchgovernment involvement inschools. However I would prefermore government money and lessoverlap (overhead).Wehavefeder-al, state and local school district in-volvement.Theuseofproperty taxfunding for school levies was firstruled unconstitutional by the OhioState’s Supreme Court over 15yearsago.Levies are failingevery-where in Ohio. Yet no alternativehas been put in place. Go figure!”

Aug. 6 questionWhat are your favorite destina-

tions at The Banks? How often, if atall, do you visit The Banks? Whatwould you like to see there?

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONSShould schools continue to teachcursive writing? Why or why not?

Every week we ask readers a question theycan reply to via email. Send your answers tormaloney@community press.com withCh@troom in the subject line.

Growing up in a small town inKentucky, the outside world was myplayground.

Whether I hiked it, climbed it,crawled in it, swam it, biked it, Iwas everywhere outdoors. Indoorswas where I had to go when called;outdoors was where I lived, where Ibreathed, where my spirit soared.

As an adult, I enjoyed backpacksacross the Sierra’s or through Gla-cier National Park. The experiencesstill evoke the raw sense that natureis home. Whether sleeping under adark sky bursting with stars, orhearing the roar of a glacier steam,or feeling the crushing silence of amountain lake at sunset, you cannotavoid experiencing a deep connec-tion with creation and creator atthose moments.

For decades, I’d heard of envi-ronmental disasters. The stories ofepic damage to the natural worldjust kept coming; these were pain-ful moments and inevitably, I’d feelguilty. These kinds of things werenot supposed to happen and yet,somehow I just stood by and didnothing. I learned that if I didn’tpay much attention to this news, I’dsoon forget about it. I thoughtthings could not be as bad as por-trayed and besides, I was very busyand couldn’t do anything myself tomake a difference. And so, foryears, I did just that...nothing.

Recently, I have educated myselfon such matters as deforestation,habitat loss, climate change and thelike. Reading the science wasstraightforward enough for me(doctorate in chemistry). I alsoeducated myself on what God has tosay about all this. It is abundantlyclear that we are called to be stew-

ards of creation,charged with theresponsibility tocare for it and keepit whole andhealthy. It is notmeant for our pureconsumption. Andso, I decided it wastime for me to stopdoing nothing.

My wife and Ihave made changes

in how we live though we still havemuch to learn in order to live sus-tainably on the earth. We have asmany trees as can fit in. The back-yard is returning to a wildlife habi-tat. We’ve insulated, turn the ther-mostat down, buy solar power, recy-cle everything possible and vigor-ously compost. Within those areaswe can control, we’ve learned thatthe journey is about how wemake athousand small choices.

I’ve communicated my views tothose in positions of political powersince many of the real solutions liein public policy and how our societyoperates. I’ve joined with like-mind-ed people in organizations like theSierra Club and Citizen’s ClimateLobby because there’s power innumbers. And so, I think I’m nowofficially an environmental activist.

I believe the vast majority ofgood people also share a love andrespect for the earth as I do anddesire to do the right thing. Manyare so busy that they are just wait-ing for someone to make it easier tobe better stewards. This is the workto which I am now dedicated.

Recently, my friend’s mother experi-enced a fall at her home.

Fortunately, Andre was on the phonewith her when she fell. He was able toimmediately summon the local emergen-cy squad to respond, thus transportingher to the local hospital. Sadly, Mrs. Zsuffered a broken fibula, and a fracturedankle as a result of the fall. She is un-dergoing therapy and rehabilitation at alocal facility.

As campy as the phrase was oftenportrayed in comedy sketches after itsrelease in commercials, a fall, followed bya person’s inability to get up and summonassistance, is one of the most frequentcauses of fatality for older adults. Ac-cording to Healthy Ohio, through the OhioDepartment of Health, “Older adults aredisproportionately affected by fall-relat-ed injury.” Moreover, falls among olderadults have reached epidemic propor-tions. It is reported that from 2000 to 2011,Ohioans aged 65 and older experienced a167 percent increase in the number offatal falls and 145 percent increase in thefall death rate.

Not surprising, the risks for sufferingserious injury after a fall increases dra-matically with advancing age. On aver-age, 2.6 older Ohioans suffered fatal fallseach day in 2011, and Ohioans 65 yearsand older accounted for approximately 84percent of fatal falls that year.

One way to protect yourself or lovedone is to consider a personal emergencyresponse system. This call button can beworn as an adjustable medical alert neck-lace, or as a medical alert bracelet.

Moreover, the devices are reassuringto adult children who know that if an ag-ing parent suffers a fall, stroke or heartattack, immediate assistance can be sum-moned. Many models can detect when aperson has fallen. This is especially help-ful if the individual is unconscious.

The American Associ-ation for Retired Personsrecommends that youconsider these factorswhen choosing a system:

1) Look at several sys-tems before making adecision;

2) Compare costs.Charges for equipmentand services, typically,include a setup fee any-

where from $50 to $200 and a monthly feeranging from $30 to $60;

3) Read the contract carefully andunderstand the cancellation process;

4) make sure the provider offers 24/7monitoring and support; 5) Ask how oftenthe system is tested; and 6) ask for a 30day free or money-back trial.

Mrs. Z actually had a medical alertsystem.

However, she wasn’t wearing the alertdevice at the time of her fall. Luckily, herson was able to summon the emergencycrew to her home. Thanks to her son, Mrs.Z will be returning to her home in thenear future.

Conversely, the elderly mother of alocal physician was discovered alone inher bedroom, dehydrated, injured andbarely conscious a full day after she suf-fered a fall and stroke.

Because of the delayed discovery, thetime in which a stroke can be aggressive-ly treated to minimize or counter theeffects was compromised. The doctor’smother, who before the stroke had noserious health conditions, now lives withhim and his wife.

AUGUST 20, 2014 • CJN-MMA • B3LIFE

If you could see myherb garden and countthe number of varietiesof basil, you’d need morethan 10 fingers. I lovethem all, but when itcomes to making pesto, Iuse the sweet green,

commonbasil or itscousin,Genovese.

This isthe time ofyear tomake pes-to, whenbasil isabundant.The recipeI’m shar-

ing is a thicker pestomeant to freeze well andis the one I’ve been get-ting requests for. Thequestion I get asked mostis if nuts are essential.No, and walnuts make agood substitute for pinenuts. I have a reader whomakes it with almonds,as well. Should you addgarlic before freezing? Iadd both nuts and garlicto my pesto prior tofreezing, but some foodexperts leave them outsince, in their opinion,these items turn strongin the freezer. They addthem to the thawed pesto.

I use my food proces-sor, but you could use ablender or make this byhand. Add more oil afterthawing, if you like. Adda little water when usingit to coat pasta.

Rita’s freezer pesto1 to 1-1/2 teaspoons

garlic, minced1/4 cup pine nuts,

toasted if desired1/2 stick unsalted but-

ter (optional but good)

Generous handfulparsley leaves

4 generous cups basilleaves, packed

1-1/4 cups Parmesancheese or to taste

1/4 cup Romanocheese

1/2 to 3/4 cup extravirgin olive oil

Generous squeeze oflemon juice

With processor’s mo-tor running, add garlicand nuts. Add everythingelse and using the pulsebutton, pulse until justmixed, then pour intocontainers and freeze.

Tip from Rita’skitchen:

Why does my pestoturn dark?

Sometimes the toplayer of my pesto turns abit dark in the freezer.That doesn’t bother me,but here are some ideasthat may alleviate theproblem. I’ve tried themall and sometimes theywork, and sometimesthey don’t. But the dark-er color is only on the topand doesn’t affect qualityor taste.

» Basil oxidizes/turnsdark rapidly when leavesare cut up either toofinely and/or exposed toair, so use the pulse but-ton to mix. That alsoalleviates heat whileprocessing, which canturn the basil dark.

» Blanch the basilleaves to keep themgreen.

» Add parsley andlemon juice to keep thegreen color.

» Pouring a thin filmof oil over the top beforestoring may keep air out.

Health benefits of

basil:Besides containing

iron, calcium and vitaminA, this member of themint family also containsnutrients that improveblood flow and help stopcholesterol from oxidiz-ing in the blood stream. Abasil steam facial iscleansing and calming.

Fruited gluten freebaked oatmeal

Baked oatmeal is thenewest trend for break-fast, or really any meal.

Reader Michelle fromWhite Oak shared thiswhich she tore out of anewspaper in the doctor’s

office. I told her she’s notalone. I have to admitthat I’ve guiltily andhopefully secretly donethat myself. Here’s myadaptation.

1 cup oats, old fash-ioned or quick oats

1/2 cup chopped nuts1/2 teaspoon baking

powder1 teaspoon cinnamon1/4 cup pure maple

syrup1 cup 2%milk2 tablespoons butter

or substitute, melted1 egg1 teaspoon vanillaEnough ripe banana

slices to fill bottom of

pan - 2 or 3 bananas1 cup sliced berriesPreheat oven to 375.

Spray a 2 quart bakingpan. Mix together oats,half the nuts, bakingpowder and cinnamon.Whisk syrup, milk, but-ter, egg and vanilla. Lay-er bottom of pan withsliced bananas. Top withoat mixture and half theberries. Pour maple syr-up mixture over. Topwith rest of berries andnuts. Bake 30-40 minutes.Cool slightly before serv-ing.

Tip from Rita’skitchen:

Not sure if your pan is2 quarts?

A 2-quart pan is8x8x2” and holds 8 cups;a three-quart pan is 9x13”and holds 12 cups.

It’s true. Regular oil changes, tune-ups and maintenance can help improve your vehicle’s performance and gasmileage, extend its life and increase its resale value. It can also help reduce traffic congestion due to preventablebreakdowns. But possibly most important of all, taking good care of your car could help reduce emissions bymore than half. And that should make you breathe a lot easier between oil changes. So keep it up because…
