VILLA HILLS — Naomi Diasnever expected to have her art-work touring the nation. The12-year-old Villa Hills resident,however, said it’s “really cool.”

Dias’ colored pencil drawingof a small duck known as thehooded merganser is a part ofthe The Junior Duck StampBest of Show tour that includesthe overallwinning pieces fromeachstate for thisyear’scompe-tition.

Her drawing was selectedthe best among 752 paintingssubmitted by students through-out the state who are in kinder-garten through grade 12. Shewas one of the youngest contes-tants this year at the nationallevel.

The Junior Duck Stamp is apictorial stampproducedby theU.S.FishandWildlifeService torecognize the conservation ef-forts of young people and sup-port environmental and conser-vation education programs inthe U.S. The competition hasbeen held for 21 years.

Dias has placed in the com-petition on the state level thelast three, but this was her firsttime receiving first place in heragecategoryand receivingbestin show. She said she enjoys thecompetition because it com-bines two of her favorite things:animals and art.

In addition to drawing theduck, students must study theanimals, learning about theirbehaviors and habitats.

“I like learning about theducks and drawing them,” Diassaid. “I’vealways likedanimals;they’re my favorite thing todraw.”

She said she enjoys this com-petition, too, because it raisesawareness of conservation andrespect for these animals.

“Naomi is very compassion-ate,” her mother Shilpa Diassaid. “Shegoes out of herway torescue animals, turtles, birds.She even rescued a dog a fewweeks ago.”

Dias said that “humans domeanthingssometimesandani-mals can’t say anything to de-fend themselves.

“Rescuinganimals andbeingin the competition makes mefeel like I’m doing something tohelp,” Dias said. “I’m not justsitting aroundwhile they’re sador hurt.”

Naomi’s art work was alsosent to the national portion ofthe competition in April. Shilpasaid the judges were very en-couraging to her daughter.

Judge Adam Grimm, whowas the winner of this year’sAdultFederalDuckStampcom-petition, was very impressedwith Dias’ art work.

“Shehasa lot ofpotential andI look forward to seeing morework from her in the future,”Grimm said.

Grimm will get his wish.Dias said she’s already excitedabout the 2015 competition andplans to enter again.

ERLANGER HISTORICAL SOCIETY

FORT MITCHELL — Ac-cording to Police ChiefJeff Eldridge, FortMitchell is experiencinga spike in home burglar-ies and thefts from cars.

In the last month, El-dridge said there havebeen two burglaries re-ported on the north sideof the city and two in theSunnymeade area.Throughout the city, sixcars have been brokeninto.

In each burglary caseexcept one, Eldridgesaid that the homes’doors were left un-locked. The items taken,like keys or wallets, hesaid, were left in plainview. The perpetrator

had quick and easy ac-cess to the items. In the

case of thetheftsfrom cars,items suchas laptopswere leftin plainview, aswell.

“Inmany

cases, at night they’ll godown the street andcheck each parked car,”Eldridge said. “If theyhave easy access,they’re going to take theitems. Even if the door islocked they may riskbreaking out the windowto get to the items. Ittakes seconds for abreak-in.”

Eldridge said he be-

lievesthat thecrimesarerelated to the heroin epi-demic.

“This isnot thenorm,”he said. “This kind of ac-tivity has been ongoingin the entire area, up anddown Dixie Highway, soI assume it’s drug-relat-ed.”

Fort Wright PoliceChief Daniel Kreinestsaid his department istaking extra precau-tions, even thoughthey’ve only experi-enced one burglary inthe city. “That canchange tonight, howev-er,” he said.

“We don’t know if thisburglary is related to theones in Fort Mitchell,”Kreinest said. “But, wehave sent out notices toresidents to make them

aware of issues and en-courage them to keeptheir homes and carssafe.”

Kreinest said commu-nications between citypolice departments is es-pecially important whenthere’s an increase incrime in an area.

“Ifweallknowwhat isgoing onwith each other,we’re able to keep all ourcitizens more alert,” hesaid.

Eldridge said his de-partment has also sentnotices out to residents,reminding them to keeptheir doors locked andproperty secure.

“You hate to tell peo-ple that they’ve got tolock their door, but that’sthe kind of world we livein today,”hesaid. “Idon’t

take (thesecrimes) light-ly. I think of it asmy ownproperty that’s been tak-en. We are being proac-tive in trying to catchthose who’ve done this,but I don’t want to dis-cuss that in too much de-tail right now.”

In addition to keepingproperty secure, El-dridge said he encour-ages residents who seeanything suspicious intheir neighborhood tocall 911 immediately.

“We would ratherhave thousands of callsthat are nothing to getthat one that is some-thing, than no calls at alland something bad hap-pens,” he said.


Police warn Ft. Mitchell to be carefulByMelissa [email protected]

EldridgeThe Bank of Kentucky

has made a major invest-ment to improve the hearthealth of our region.

St. Elizabeth Founda-tion announced that TheBank of Kentucky andR.C. Durr Foundationhave committed $1.25mil-lion toward the St. Eliza-beth Heart & Vascular In-stitute campaign.

This is a second majorcommitment by TheBankof Kentucky in recentyears, following its col-laboration with St. Eliza-beth Healthcare in 2010 tosponsor the first cardio-vascular mobile unit inNorthernKentucky.

In 2013, the St. Eliza-beth CardioVascular Mo-bile Health Unit providedapproximately 4,000 life-saving screenings fornearly 1,500 individualsthroughout the region.

“It is unacceptable forourcustomers, employeesand region to needlesslysuffer fromheart andvas-cular disease,” said BobZapp, president of TheBank of Kentucky. “Ourstate is among the 10 leasthealthy in the country.Be-cause of it, we are losingfriends, family and neigh-bors to theNo.1disease inour region. We believe wecan help to prevent muchofthis.Ourcommitmentisto create a healthier re-gion with St. Elizabethleading theway.”

The bank has joined St.Elizabeth to help reduceheart- andheart-attack re-lated deaths by 25 percentin the Northern Kentuckyregion during the insti-tute’s first 10 years.

The Heart & VascularInstitute campaign is fo-cused upon raising com-munity awareness andfunds to enhance preven-tion/wellness, technologyand care, and research/education.

This campaign is fo-cused upon a three-pronged approach: pre-vent cardiovascular dis-ease,diagnosisthediseaseearlier for those withearly signs of the disease,and provide effectiveacute and chronic treat-ments for those with thedisease. The St. ElizabethFoundation’sHeart &Vas-cular Institute Campaignis focused upon providing$15 million toward a totalcost of $30 million for theInstitute’s development.

and One to One volunteer Da-vid McGhee has grown to lovereading more since he becamea volunteer. “(I) never sawmy-self reading to kids,” McGheesaid. “As a kid, I never reallyenjoyed reading.” Now,McGhee explained, he findsmore enjoyment in reading forpleasure and has grown pasthis own childhood reading is-sues.

A volunteer since October2013, benefits specialist Bar-bara Freeman saw impressivegrowth from the student shetutored. “Shewasputtingmoreinflection in her reading,”Freeman said. “She was betterable to understand emotion inthe books she read.”

The volunteers from Pome-roy who participated in the“One to One: Practicing Read-ing with Students” programare valuable assets to theNorthern Kentucky communi-ty who are dedicated to im-proving reading proficiencyacross the region.

North Pointe PrincipalMike Shires reiterates the pro-found impact that Pomeroyand the One to One readingprogram have had with theirelementary students.

“Many times in educationwe focus on accountability,skills, strategies, content andassessments. We often forgetabout the relationships that

make a huge difference tokids. Through the One to Oneprogram, Pomeroy employeeshave given back directly to thecommunity and created rela-tionships that could change thedirection of a child’s life,”Shires said.

Data indicate that almosthalf (49 percent) of third-grad-ers in Northern Kentucky arenot reading on grade level.More community and businessvolunteers are needed to betrained to become readingcoaches at the 38 participatingschools across five NorthernKentucky counties.

“Our community has thepower to change young livesand invest in the future of ourregion,, says Polly Lusk Page,executive director, NorthernKentucky Education Council.“Third-grade reading profi-ciency is a key indicator forsubsequent academic perfor-mance and career readiness.One to One provides a tangiblemeans for volunteers to con-tribute to that process andmake a difference.”

One to One provides train-ing in the late summer eachyear and will train in numer-ous sessions in late August/early September.

WILDER — They had anothersolid learning experience at thehighest level of youth soccer.

The Kings Hammer Acad-emy U17 girls soccer team hada tough time inMaryland at theU.S. Youth Soccer NationalChampionships. KHA had aloss and two ties in its groupand failed to advance past thegroup stage July 24.

“At that level, all the gamesare going to be very tight but awin in one of three games is es-sential to move on and wemissed opportunities in two ofthe games to get it done,” saidTiffany Roberts, assistantcoachof theU17 teamandwom-

en’s director atthe academy.“I’m extremelyproud of ourgroup as weshowed a tre-mendous amountofprideandfightin all threegames.”

The team provided excitingsoccer to watch, scoring sixgoals in its three games and al-lowing seven. KHA tied DMCVSharks Elite from California2-2. KHA scored twice in the fi-nal minute of regulation ongoals by Sydney Kilgore (OakHills) and Camille Williams

(SevenHills) to rally from a 2-0deficit against a team that wasthe defending national champi-ons.

The team lost 3-2 toMaitlandKrush Black from Florida. Theteams were tied at 2-2 at half-time before Maitland scored inthe final minute. Patrice Dipas-quale (Kings High School) andBayley Feist (OakHills) scoredfor KHA in the first 14 minutesof play.

KHA then tied VSA Heatfrom Virginia 2-2 to end thetournament. Like the firstgame, the Hammer team ral-lied late. After trailing 2-0 athalftime, KHA got goals from

Feist and Caroline Mink (Tur-pin) to forge a draw. Feist gavethe team a feisty tie in the 81stminute.

“What a great environmentfor the best teams in the coun-try to come together and com-pete as the fields were greatand competition was excel-lent,” Roberts said. “Our grouphad a very tough bracket. To behonest, we just gave up toomany goals in each game weplayed and were a goal short inall three of the games to get aresult we needed to gothrough.”

The team,with oneNorthernKentucky player and the rest

from Cincinnati, already hasmost of its roster committed toplay for NCAA Division I col-leges with the rest likely to fallsuit eventually. They hope tolearn from their summer expe-rience.

“We just need to continue towork to get better,” Robertssaid. “Every team across thecountry wants an opportunityat a national championship.We’ve had that opportunity twoyears now. We will have anoth-er chance.This team is commit-ted to make sure of that.”

ALEXANDRIA — After say-ingadios to her playing careerat Thomas More College, Ka-

tie Kitchen isgoing full speedinto a new ven-ture as she pur-sues a teachingcareer.

The recentTMC graduateand formerbas-ketball playeris teaching in

Costa Rica for the rest of 2014before she chases a master ofarts degree in teaching.Kitch-engraduatedwith abachelor’sdegree in communications,and associate degrees in Eng-lish and psychology.

She is assisting with first-graders at the Pan-AmericanSchool in the city of Heredia.The school is bilingual withchildren learning for part ofthe day in English and part ofthe day in Spanish. In additionto time in the classroom, shewill beworkingasaprivate tu-torhelpingchildrenwithread-ing and writing.

“Costa Rica has been in-credible so far,” she said. “Ev-eryone has been sowelcomingand I just know that this is go-ing to be an experience that Ilook back on, and treasure forthe rest of my life.”

Case in point, in her firstweek there, the children at theschool sang to Kitchen on herbirthday and the teachers andprincipal have been helpfuldriving her to and from theschool.

Kitchen, a Campbell Coun-ty High School graduate, tookon the challenge of going to aforeignnationwhereshe isnotfluent in the language (Span-ish).

“I am not fluent in Spanishbut am learning more andmoreeveryday,andcangetbywith just the basic conversa-tional things that I know,” shesaid. “Sometimes it is a chal-lenge thoughwhen you go intostores, or want to ask forsomething and the person youare communicating withspeaks no English. This,though, is helping me to learnquickly more about the lan-guage and it’s really exciting.”

Kitchen had been to CostaRica twice already on educa-tional visits in the past twoyears, including a 10-day so-journ with the entire TMCwomen’s basketball team in2013.

“Probably the best part ofthe (2013) tripwas the twobas-ketball clinics,” TMC headcoach Jeff Hans said. “Bothwere in San Jose; one was at a

local school and the other wasat a basketball club. It was avery good experience for ourteam. The opportunity tospend10 days in another coun-try together as a team is some-thing our players will neverforget.”

Kitchen will never forgetthe ride she and the Saintswent on this year, going unde-feated until losing in theNCAADivision III EliteEight.

It was something she neverthought she would experienceafter tearing her ACL herfreshman season. Kitchenfought back to be a key con-tributor in her senior season.

“I went through several in-juries while being there butwouldn’t trade any of it for theworld,” she said. “It helped toshape me into the person I amtoday and provided me withsome incredible opportuni-ties.”

Kitchen saidHans fostereda family atmosphere, whichhelped the team’s success.

“Coach Hans never misseda doctor’s appointment, and itwas him that helped me makeit a reality to come back andplay this past year,” Kitchensaid. “He has been like a sec-ond dad to me, and the rest ofthe girls on the team.”

A record-breaking year forthe Saints included BooneCounty grad Sydney Mossscoring 63 points in an NCAATournament game, and Con-nergradDevinBeasleybreak-ing the school record in assistsand leading the nation in thatcategory. Kitchen has fondmemories of all of it.

“This past year was trulythe best year of my life,” shesaid.

KENTON COUNTY — Playingin the toughest district inNorthern Kentucky preparedthe Swan Florist Heat for theircompetition in the Knotholebaseball city tournament.

The Heat stormed throughthe oldest age group, winningthe Class A championship July22 at theCrosleyField complexin Blue Ash, Ohio. The teamwas a perfect 7-0 in the citytournament, winning by an av-erage score of 11-3. They swepttwo games in the finals fromthe Bethel Tigers by a com-bined score of 26-4.

“In my 20 years of coachingbaseball, this is by far thestrongest team I havecoached,” head coach JeffSchreiver said. “We have verygood pitching, good defense,and our lineup produces one

through 11 every game. Whenthey start hitting, watch out,because they can hit the coveroff the ball. But what makes adifference between our teamand the others is their positiveattitude and just sheer will towin.”

The Heat were 13-1 in regu-lar-season play. They were theonly Kenton County team toreach the city tournament.

“We were down by five runsin one of our games and ourguys never said anything nega-tive,” Schreiver said. “It wasalways ‘Don't worry coach, wegot this,’ and ‘We can do this orwe will win.’ And they did.”

The players are from Cres-cent Springs, Crestview Hills,Edgewood, Fort Wright, Inde-pendence, Latonia and VillaHills. They attend high schoolat Covington Catholic, DixieHeights, SimonKenton andVil-la Madonna. The team sponsor

is located on Dixie Highway inErlanger.

Because of dwindling num-bers in Kenton County Knot-hole, the Heat played in a dis-trict with Campbell Countyteams. Teams from the countyto the eastwon city titles in twoof the other five age groups,with two others playing in thechampionship finals on July 24.

“Our kids play with greatspirit, never getting down oneach other but always encour-aging one another to succeed,”Schreiver said.

Players are Jacob Bayless,Ethan Conradi, Matthew“Franco” Franxman, BenGerdes, Max Granger, Mat-thew “Shooby” Herrmann,Dustin Israel, Jaret Schreiver,Thomas Schutzman, DanielVarney and Brian Wulfeck.

A pair of 1-0 losses toopen the season ended upcosting the Cincinnati La-dy Saints, who narrowlymissed qualifying for theWomen’s Premier SoccerLeague postseason. TheLady Saints, who playedtheir home games at Star-gel Stadium, finished theWPSL season with a 5-3-2mark.

“We’re a little disap-pointed,” said first-yearhead coach Joe Talley.

The Lady Saints willplay in anamateur tourna-ment on July 26 and 27 be-fore going their separateways in the fall. Of thesquad’s 46 members, 19will stick with the teamthroughout the offseason,and have already ex-pressed interest in findingcompetition in the fall and

winter. Others will returnto college or pursue otheropportunities. For those19, the goal is to find an in-door league in the mid-west.

“We need to find themsome place to play, to givethemacompetitive leagueto play in in the winter,”said Talley.

Talley took over at thehelmoftheprograminOc-tober and did not havemuch time to get the teamup to speedbefore the sea-son began in May. Theplayers, led by captainsChristy Zwolski and KimComisar-Granell, eventu-ally got on board.

“It took them sometime to get used tome andthe new formations,” saidTalley. “Once they did buyin, it seemed towork pret-ty well.”

Theteamreliedonade-fensive-heavy 4-5-1 for-

mation and played withmoreconfidencewithfourbacks.Nextyear, the teamhopes to diversify its at-tack.

“We had a nicemixtureofveteranplayerswithex-perience and college play-ers with athleticism,” saidTalley. “We hope to add

more attacking playersand hope to expand ourability to shift forma-tions.”

The Lady Saints drewaround 250 fans to their fi-nalhomegame.Thegame-day product is well-run,with sponsors, a halftimeshow, and accommoda-tions for the visiting team.

“We treat it like a pro-fessional league, like anyother professional sport-ing atmosphere,” Talleysaid.

David Satterwhite,owner of both the Cincin-nati Saints and LadySaints, said he’s pleasedwith how the ladies havedone this season and thefollowing theyhave.Theirsuccess is fitting into hisstrategy with moving toTaft’s Stargel Stadium intheWest End.

“Our whole goal of be-ingdownhereatStargel is

to kinda create that Wri-gley Field experience thatthey have in Chicagowhere bars and restau-rants and entertainmentare walking distanceaway,” he said.

While World Cup feverhelped the men’s Saintsteam with its attendanceand support this year, theLady Saints continued torely on their relationshipwith the next generationof female soccer players.

Mostoftheladiescoachand build relationshipswith theplayers they lead.While the 2015 Women’sWorld Cup may increaseinterest in the Lady Saintsnext season, the focuswillalways remain on makingyoung girls feel like partof the program.

“We like having the La-dy Saints be role modelsfor the youth players thatthey coach,” said Talley.

A publication of

July 24 questionShould pit bulls be banned?

Why or why not?

“Pit bulls should absolutelynot be banned. By banning pitbulls you are discriminatingagainst a breed of dogs. If adog is aggressive it’s becauseof the way it was raised notbecause of its breed. If it’s OKto discriminate against abreed of dogs, then why is itwrong to discriminate againstcertain human races or reli-gions or anything.”

Chelsea Seitz

“Pit bulls should not bebanned. Breed-specific legisla-tion does not work. Severalbreeds or dogs that are mixedare just as likely to attack as apit and can do just as muchdamage. Just as every human,every dog is different.”

Gina Stegner

“I do not believe a ban isnecessary for one isolatedbreed of dog. Any dog, wheth-er provoked or not, has thecapability of biting. The safestand most sure way of prevent-ing dog bites is to have properlaws in place and enforce re-sponsible dog ownership.Owners should have their dogstrained to their commands andsee that the dog is either on aleash or in a safe enclosedspace at all times. Electricfences do not prevent anotherdog or person from enteringtheir space. So I feel thesehave little value. I personallyhad a strong black lab breakthrough his invisible fence asI walked by. Fortunately it wasfriendly but had it not beenthe owner was not present andI would have been strictly onmy own. It was a very fright-ening experience. When amaster has to be away from itsdog he should be sure the dogis in a safe enclosed area. Safefor the dog and also safe foranyone who the dog might see.Just as people, all dogs havetheir own personalities, butmost are smart and whenowned by a responsible lovingand caring person, these typesof incidents can be controlledand even prevented.”

Ruthanne

“Personally, I’m ambivalenton the topic. It’s almost alwaysan issue of improper pet own-ership when there’s an in-cident and I don’t believe anyspecific breed is ‘bad.’ Poorbreeding is also a factor.”

John Richardson

“When I first had mydaughter we had a female pit.Well the first night she washome I was tired from lack ofsleep adjusting to a newborn.Daddy was tired from workingand being at the hospital tohelp me when not at work so Ididn’t wake up right away. Ourdaughter was crying. Ziva ourpit jumped in bed and startedlicking me to get me up. When-ever she would cry Ziva wouldlook in her bed then run to getme. We caught her on cameramany times. She would sleepon the floor in front of thebaby bed. When we went onwalks she stayed by the stroll-er and pranced around like ourdaughter was her baby. It’speople that make any breeddangerous!”

Tosha Adams

“The city of Fort Thomasshould repeal its breed specif-ic legislation against’"pit bull’type dogs. The city alreadyhas a dangerous animal ordi-nance including dogs (Ordi-nance 91.40)

“Major organizations suchas The American Kennel Club,The United Kennel Club, TheAmerican Veterinary MedicalAssociation, Centers for Dis-ease Control and Prevention,National Animal Control Asso-ciation, The National CanineResearch Council, The Amer-ican Bar Association and theASPCA are just a few of theorganizations who are opposedto Breed Specific legislationagainst ‘pit bull’ type dogs. Inaddition to this list, veterinari-ans and animal behavioristsare also opposed to this type oflanguage in legislation.

“Citizens should not bemisinformed about the misin-formation that has been putout about these dogs. The Cin-

cinnati Enquirer has recentlypublished two editorials (’Pre-venting Dog Bites Is up to Allof Us,’ June 23, and ‘Don't BanPit Bulls; Punish Owners,’ July14) based upon research re-garding these dogs and dogownership.

“Much research has beenconducted since the city ofFort Thomas passed an ordi-nance banning pit bulls in1988. Based on much of thesame research, many citieshave rescinded or in the proc-ess of rescinding these ordi-nances. Several state supremecourts have overruled localcity ordinances. Most recently,the ;egislature of South Dako-ta overturned such languagein breed specific bans.

“It is time that we put theblame on the other side of theleash, based upon this wealthof knowledge and most recentstatistics and data.”

Steve Rottman

“No. Breed specific legisla-tion is not effective. My neigh-bors 2-pound Chihuahua ismore aggressive and unstablethan my 80-pound pit. Unlesssomeone has personally owneda ‘pit bull,’ I don’t believe theyare educated enough to vote toban them. I have been bittenby three the dogs in my life:Australian shepherd, poodleand a little mutt. It’s terriblysad that pit bulls have a badstigma. They are truly themost loving and loyal dogs youcould ask for.”

Joy Roland

“Without a doubt pit bullsshould be banned. There maywell be some of the dogs whohave been raised properly andin loving homes, but therehave been far too many verysad examples of extreme vio-lence perpetrated by pit bulls.For a supposed civilized soci-ety such as ours to allow thebreed to be tolerated, simplymakes no sense. How manypeople have died in the jaws ofdeath that these pit bulls pos-sess? How many more need todie or be grossly disfigured bysuch hellhounds? How manytragedies are acceptable? 100?10? No, not even 1.

“Can they be good pets? Isuppose, but the very naturebred into pit bulls for so manyyears has made it a breed notto be trusted. As a group, theyare meant to be attack dogsand provide extreme securityto their owners. How manydrug dealers have golden re-trievers as guard and attack

dogs? How may evildoers relyon poodles for protection? I’llgo with zero as my estimate.

“Pit bulls have proven theirtrue and violent nature on somany occasions that thisweek’s question begs a follow-on question: Why are we evendebating this topic? Pit bullsshould be gone and theyshould be gone right now.”

M.J.F.

“I was raised with a pit bull.When my husband was a littleboy, his uncle’s Chihuahua torehis face up. There are badspecimens in any breed and itis up to the breeder to dealwith it. But bad training orbad owners is another story.”

Ruth Simmons Blue

“No, they should not bebanned. The laws in placeregarding irresponsible own-ers, dogs at large and aggres-sive dogs need to be enforced.Banning an entire breed forthe actions of a few bad own-ers doesn’t resolve the issue ofirresponsible dog ownership.”

Michelle Todd

“No. Absolutely not. I’vebeen attacked by three dogs inmy life. Chihuahua, dachshundand German shepherd. I don’tthink any of them should bebanned. It’s most always badownership or training.”

April Marie Huffman

“If we can’t ban drug traf-fickers/sexual predators fromliving in Boone County, I can’tsee how they can ban a dogbreed that’s much less danger-ous.”

Brian Nagy

“No. It is the human thattrains the dog that should bebanned because any dog canbe trained to be a killer. Pitbulls are sweet dogs.”

Trisha Scheyer

“I have friends who havewonderful pit bulls. Enforceleash laws. Teach kids to leavedogs alone, especially dogsthat they don’t know. Little

dogs can also cause injury topeople. Before you know it,you are banning all breeds.”

Janet Moody Cowen

“A dog is only as aggressiveor as bad as the owner. Justlike a child. You teach it to bewell-behaved and it will bewell behaved, simple as that.If you need to punish anyone,punish the owner and banthem. Not the innocent dogwho was made to be that way.Because believe it or not a dogcan be retrained and taught tolove again.”

Tasha Hillner

“Ban the owners, not thedog.”

Jules Ginn

“No,because it is ridiculousto ban a breed of anything.People are the problem not theanimal.”

John Bernard

“There is no logical reasonto ban any specific breed,including the StaffordshireBull Terrier, the AmericanBull Terrier, etc., that fall intothis breed group! A long timeago these dogs were an Amer-ican family favorite, called theNanny Dog, because of theway they loved and protectedchildren. The media hardlyever reports when someonegets bitten by other breeds,but they sensationalize it whenone of these terrier breedsbites someone, further scaringthe uneducated public. TheMichael Vick dogs have beenthe prime example that theseabused dogs can be rehabili-tated, and they are now calledthe Vicktory Dogs! Somethinglike 99 percent of those dogshave gone on to be familypets, guide dogs, therapy dogs,etc. I thank DoG that 50 statesnow have felony animal cru-elty provisions, but my hope isthat those punishments aremade harsher. The problem isnot with any specific breed,but the sick individuals whoabuse them and turn them intocreatures who have to fightfor their lives, both physicallyand emotionally.”

Julee Ellison

BURLINGTON—Surroundedbykids,shestirredthemixturein a bowl, a combination ofeggs, milk, and mustard.

Little eyes followed herhand as she poured the yellowliquid into ameasuring cup. Ather elbowwas a piece of papershowing the recipe: Strata, acasserole.

But this was just a demon-stration. Soon the kids wouldprepare the dish by them-selves, with just a bit of help.

It was the second morningof a three-day class known as“Baking with Kids.” The pro-gram is offered every summerby the Boone County Coopera-tive Extension Service.

“It’s mainly to get childrento learn how to cook, and foradults to realize that childrencanparticipate in cooking,” ex-plained the instructor, DianeMason.“Andthemorechildrencook, the better they’re goingto eat. Research shows that.”

Christy Wells of Hebronbrought her 7-year-old daugh-ter Sophie. “It helps her withher skills, reading the recipesand following the instruc-tions,” she said.

“It helps her be confident todo things on her own,” addedChelseaMoore ofHebron,whowas there with her 6-year-oldniece Brianna.

“My mom and us, we docooking together,” 7-year-oldJosieBozeman of Fort Thomasshared. She took the class lastyear, too. Her favorite part sofar? Making cookies.

Mason pointed out that in-cluding different family mem-bers in the class teaches chil-dren teamwork. “They have tolearn about how to divide upthe responsibility.”

Thekidspreparedthestratain small aluminumdishes, thenslid them into the oven. Whilewaiting for their creations tobake, they walked to a nearbyfarmer’smarket tobuyvegeta-blesfor tomorrow’srecipe:Piz-za.

“They’re going to make thebread for the pizza crust,” Ma-son said. “Totally fromscratch.”

When the students returnedthey found theclassroomfilledwith a rich aroma. Goldencheese could be seen bubblingon the surface of each dish.

Itwas timefor the taste test.And smiles all around.

Mason’s aim is to show kidsthat it’s not so hard to prepareyour own food. “Youdon’t haveto buy everything alreadymade. You can do it at home,and the recipes really are sim-ple and easy.”

I had tolaughwhen I

checkedmyTopHat blue-berrybushes forripe ber-ries. Theywere load-ed, butbeingminiature bushes,the yield was small.

I had enough to testout a recipe I’m devel-oping for healthy blue-berrymuffins, but notenough for the blueberrycrisp I wanted tomakefor dessert. Our localfarmersmarket hadblueberries for sale so Istocked up and hadenough tomake this crispand to freeze.

By the way, the defini-tion of a crisp or cobblercan be a little blurred.But tomyway of think-ing, a crisp doesn’t con-tain eggs and/or leav-ening in the topping and acobbler does. Aren’t youglad I imparted this tidbitof wisdom?

So good blueberrycrisp a lamode

If you like, go aheadand toss a handful ofsliced almonds into thecrisp topping alongwiththe dry ingredients. Dotaste for sweetness inboth the filling and top-ping; youmay like a bitmore sugar than recipecalls for. This recipedivides in half easily andcan be frozen beforebaking. If you do that,

bake the crisp frozen atthe same temperature.Just increase the bakingtime. If it browns tooquickly, cover lightlywith foil.

Filling:6 cups blueberries3 tablespoons brown

sugar1 tablespoon flour1generous tablespoon

lemon juiceTopping:2/3 cup flour1/2 cup packed brown

sugar1/2 cup oats1 teaspoon ground

cinnamon4 tablespoons butter

cut into small piecesPreheat oven to 375°.

Combine first 4 ingredi-ents and pour intosprayed 9x13 baking dish.Combine 2/3 cup flour,½cup brown sugar, oats,and cinnamon, and cut inthe butter with a pastryblender or 2 knives untilthemixture resemblescoarsemeal. Sprinkleover the blueberrymix-ture. Bake at 375° for 30minutes or until bubbly.Serve with vanilla icecream, frozen yogurt orwhipped cream.

Tip:Toppingmay also be

made in the food proces-sor. Place 2/3 cup flour,½cup brown sugar, oats,and cinnamon in a foodprocessor, and pulse 2times or until combined.Add butter; pulse 4 timesor until mixture resem-bles coarsemeal.

Using frozen berries:thaw only slightly and

increase baking time abit.

Health tip fromRita’s kitchen:

Blueberries containlots of antioxidants,which are good for yournervous system andbrain.

Freezingblueberries:

Rinse and dry thor-oughly before freezing ina single layer on a cookiesheet until hard. Thentransfer to suitable freez-er containers. Or don’trinse at all and simplyput frozen berries in acolander and run a littlecold water over to rinseand to thaw slightly.

Rita’s salt-freeherb blend

Savory is a great sub-stitute for salt and iscalled the bean herb inGermany since it helpsdigest beans. Adaptedfrom aDr. Oz recipe.

Combine:1/3 cup garlic powder1/3 cup onion powder1/3 cup oregano2 tablespoons thyme4 tablespoons parsley

flakes2 teaspoons savory1 teaspoon freshly

ground black pepper

Readerswant to know

How to ripen home-grown tomatoes:Heath-er asked if she couldfinish ripening her home-grown tomatoes in a sun-ny spot outside. “I have to

pick them before they’recompletely ripe so thesquirrels don’t get themfirst,” she said.

To ripen tomatoes forthe best flavor, don’t setthem in the sun. Put themin a shady spot outside or,better yet, on the kitchencounter away from di-rect, hot sunlight. They’llripen nicely in a fewdays.

Storing tomatoes inthe frig. NO! Unless it’sabsolutely necessary,don’t store tomatoes inthe frig. The cold not onlyaffects their texture, butthe flavor, as well. A cuttomato, wrappedwell,keeps on the counter in acool spot for a couple ofdays.

We’ve all seen theadvertisementstouting the bene-

fits of reversemort-gages for senior citizens.While reversemort-gages havemany goodpoints, there are severaldrawbacks that the adsdon’t mention.

Reversemortgagesallow homeowners to getcash for the value oftheir home. That cangive themmuch neededfunds to pay their livingexpenses – and theydon’t have tomakemort-gage payments as long asthey live in the house.

While nomortgagepayments are required,the homeowner is stillresponsible for payingproperty taxes and insur-ance on the house.Whileit’s true that your heirscan still inherit yourhouse, theymust firstpay off that reversemortgage loan.

NewYork AttorneyGeneral Eric Schneider-man settled a lawsuitagainst onemortgagecompany that was ac-cused of sendingmis-leading directmail ads toseniors. The suit said the

ads onlypresentedthe bene-fits ofreversemortgageswhile fail-ing to dis-close therisks.

Schnei-derman

says don’t sign loan docu-ments for a reversemortgage unless youunderstand how it works.Shop around and com-pare rates and optionsoffered by various lend-ers.

One type of reversemortgage is federallyinsured and backed bythe U.S. Department ofHousing andUrbanDe-velopment. That’s aHome Equity ConversionMortgage, and it gener-ally provides bigger loanadvances at lower totalcosts than private loansoffered by individualcompanies which arecalled proprietary re-versemortgages.

Schneidermanwarnsnot to use a reversemortgage to pay forgoods and services like

home improvements.Also, resist pressure tobuy any financial prod-ucts or services such asannuities or long-termcare insurance. Schnei-derman says reversemortgages are not neces-sarily the best option forall homeowners. He saysfees and other chargesfor the reversemortgagecan be very high thususing upmuch of theequity in your home. Insome cases, he says,there are often less cost-ly, more appropriateoptions available.

Homeowners shouldlook into getting a homeequity line of credit andinvestigate programsthat help defer or lowertaxes and utility bills.Finally, you need to knowmost reversemortgagesgive you three businessdays after closing tocancel the deal for anyreasonwithout penalty.

ERLANGER—TheLloydMemorial HighSchool sports teamscount on the marchingband to root for theirvictories.

Now the marchingband’s boosters are ask-ing the community tochip in and support theband.

The LloydMemorialBand Boosters Inc. in-vite the public to theirannual yard sale 9 a.m. to3 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 9.

It will take place inthe rear parking lot atLloydMemorial HighSchool, 450 Bartlett Ave.

Themission of theboosters is to financiallysupport all the programsfor the LloydMemorialBand. The yard sale isheld this time everyyear, one of many events

raising funds for stu-dents.

Yard sale proceedswill provide anythingfrommeals served dur-ing competition days andbottled water for prac-tices to marching shoesand instrument repairs,according to Alexis Tan-ner, LloydMemorialBand Boosters secre-tary.

The goal for the yardsale is $500 by sellingdonated items. Eighteenrentable spots are avail-able. Tanner said itwould go a long way inhelping the band throughthe marching seasonwhich starts Sept. 6 atBeechwood High School.

The boosters are look-ing for donations ofhousehold items, books,tools and sports equip-ment, among otherthings.

Donations can be

dropped this week in theband room from 8 a.m. to5 p.m. or pickup can bescheduled via email [email protected].

“Our goal and hope isthat more people willrealize the benefits thestudents have when theirneighbors and others inthe community make aneffort to come togetherto support them,” Tannersaid. “The band is notjust another activity; it isa way of life. The lessonslearned and friendshipsearned last a lifetime formost and the traditionsare passed down throughfamilies.”

Different ways thecommunity can be in-volved in the band is byvolunteering their time,donating needed items,or bringing the family toattend a Saturday com-petition, she said.

TheNorthernKen-tucky Community ActionCommission (NKCAC)received an $87,000 con-tribution to help familiesand children haveenough to eat.

The donation – whichwas given to the nonprof-it organization throughtheWalmart Founda-tion’s State Giving Pro-gram –will go towardensuring children attend-ingNKCAC’sHead StartProgram are able to havefood to eat on theweek-ends, as well as keepingthe shelves stocked atfood pantries in the eightcounties NKCAC serves.The grant also will help

provide seeds and plantsfor families to start orexpand a food garden.

“Food, and the lack ofit, is such a fundamentalissue,” said FlorenceTandy, NKCAC executivedirector. “It’s nearlyimpossible to think aboutwork, school, or the fu-ture if you’re hungry.With this grant, wewillbe able to help themostvulnerablemembers ofour community, children,andmembers of ourcommunity who areworried about wheretheir nextmeal is comingfrom,” she said.

The contribution toNKCACwasmade pos-

sible through theWal-mart Foundation’s Ken-tucky State Giving Pro-gram. TheWalmartFoundation supportsorganizations that createopportunities so peoplecan live better. TheWal-mart Foundation StateGiving Program strivesto award grants that havea long-lasting, positiveimpact on communitiesacross theU.S. Last year,the Kentucky State Giv-ing Program awardedmore than $750,000 tolocal organizations suchas OperationHomefront,Senior Care Experts andSenior Services of North-ernKentucky.

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…

HEBRON—HenryChamberlain is just 10years old but he’s alreadybuilt his own Acropolis.The North Pointe Ele-mentary fifth-gradestudent has also built hisown pyramid and castle.

These architecturalwonders at such a youngage are made possiblewith North Pointe’s sum-mer programMinecraftLiteracy Days.

“We get to explore,play games and arelearning at the sametime,” Chamberlain said.

According to Cham-berlain, Minecraft Liter-acy Days is a “great

idea.” It’s an idea NorthPointe Principal MichaelShires came up withwhen trying to think ofways to get studentsexcited about readingand learning.

“I thought of Mine-craft because it’s some-thing my kids reallylove,” he said. “And Ithought it’d be a goodtie-in.”

Minecraft is a 3-Dcomputer game thatinvolves breaking andplacing blocks. It’s thevirtual architect’s sky-line and the sky is thelimit.

North Pointe’s pro-gram involves studentstaking Accelerated Read-er tests on books theyhave read and then learn-ing about ancient cul-tures or famous archi-tects. They then buildsomething in relation tothe lesson in Minecraft.

Students can continue towork on their creationsat home and there areblogging opportunitiesfor older students.

Technology teacherChris Berry, who helpedwith the program thissummer, said it’s beenquite a success becauseof Minecraft. Last yearabout 40 students partici-pated during the pro-gram’s debut. This yearparticipation more thandoubled.

“The thing that I like(about) the program isthat Minecraft is a sand-box environment,” Berrysaid. “It gives studentsthe opportunity to ex-plore, build and createand use their own imagi-nations to make placeswe can only talk about.The students love it.”
