VillageCouncilhasapprovednew salary and hourly payranges for employees that in-crease the maximums by 2 per-cent.

But the vote Dec. 16 will notcost Indian Hill any more mon-ey than the total $118,000 it ap-propriated for 2014 to coverem-ployee pay hikes approved ear-lier this year.

In fact, ordinances with thenew ranges codify those payhikes, which represent 1 per-centof thevillage’s$10.8millionoperating budget for 2014.

City Manager Dina Minnecisaid similar ordinances areadopted every December aspart of the village’s annual bud-

get and employee-wage re-views.

“This 2-percent increase (inthenewpayranges) is toaccom-modate the 2-percent increaseprovided for in the police andpublic works union contract,”Minneci said.

“It also is to accommodate 2-percent pay increases for allnon-union personnel.

“These are ranges only. Theordinances do not approve spe-cific salaries for specific posi-tions,” Minneci said.

“Not all employees are at themaximum end of the salaryrange.

“However, the 2-percent in-crease in the maximum levelsallows increases to be providedto thosewhoare at the top of thesalary range,” Minneci said.

Village Councilman MarkKuenning, chairman of the Fi-nance Committee, said the payordinances approved Dec. 16also include changes associatedwith the fact that benefits re-ceived by a small number ofcurrent part-time employeeswill not be given part-time em-ployees hired in the future.

Here are some of the newpay ranges:

» Assistant police chief –$90,000ayear to$107,000ayear.

» Patrol officer – The mini-mumvaries based onmonths ofservice and performance onprobation to nearly $77,000 ayear.

» Village clerk - $35,000 ayear to $43,000 a year.

»Mechanic - $29 an hour tonearly $34 an hour.

» Service worker - $20 anhour to $29 an hour.

»Grand Valley Preserveworker - $13 an hour to nearly$15 an hour.

Indian Hill HighSchool is currently help-ing out youngsters inHai-ti.

Theschool iscollectingnew or gently used back-packs which will be givento Haitian students.

The projects is beingcoordinated by French

teacher BarbMustard.Mustard has been in-

volved in this effort forseveral years.

She said she becameaware of the need forthese backpacks throughconversations with herfriendJean-RobertCadet.

Cadet is the author of“Restavec: From HaitianSlave Child to Middle-Class American.”

Anadvocate forendingchild slavery in Haiti, Ca-det has visited IndianHillHigh School to speak tothe students and collectbackpacks, which he do-nates to schools in Haiti.

A number of the stu-dents who receive thebackpacks are restavecs,or child slaves, them-selves.

“Those kids are so

proud of the backpacksthey receive,” said Mus-tard. “They love the col-ors and having a solid bagto protect their books.”

Students in the Frenchclasses at the high schoolhave taken the initiativein collecting backpacksfrom their peers.

More than 20 back-packshavebeencollectedsince mid-November.

Students in the FrenchClub have also made keyrings for the youngstersto attach to their back-packs.

“Considering howmuchweuse (backpacks),we can easily see howneedy children can usethem as well,” said seniorDrue Fowler.

Backpacks can bedropped off at the highschool, 6865 Drake Road.

For Indian Hill Ele-mentary School PrincipalMelissa Stewart it’s allabout the journey.

Stewart recently pro-vided an update to the In-dian Hill Board of Educa-tion about recent accom-plishments by the stu-dents.

It’s never just thedesti-

nation, she said, addingthat a child’s educational“journey” is “an individ-ualized learning experi-ence.”

This journey includes afocus on academicachievement, charactereducation and cultural di-versity.

She said the students

have excelled in meetingstate indicators in third-and fourth-grade mathe-matics and reading andfifth-grade mathematics,reading and science.

She said the studentshave also demonstrated aproficiency in the state’s“value-added category.”What this measures is ayear’s growth in a givenarea, said Stewart.

Stewart said strategiesfor achieving these highscores involve regularlyassessing student abili-ties, individualized in-struction and setting spe-cific targets in learning.

“There is not one singleclasswhere every studentis at the same level,” saidStewart. “(The teachers)have to craft a lesson tomeet diverse needs.”

The Zamboni is up andrunning at local rinks asthe high school hockeyseason is underway in theTristate. The following is arundown of the area prepskaters.

Indian HillIndianHill High School

does not have an officialschool hockey team, sotheir players participateon a club squad at the Indi-an Hill Winter Club inCampDennison. The teamalso includes players fromMason,Elder,Badin,Lako-ta East and LakotaWest.

John Sorensen coachestheWinter Club team.

MoellerMike Reeder’s Crusad-

ers play home games atCincinnati Gardens, butplay many league gamesaround Columbus as amember of the CapitalHockey Conference. ForReeder, the historic arenaoff of Seymour Avenue ishome in more ways thanone. The self-described“rink rat” grew up just acouple streets away fromthe former home of theNBA Royals, several prohockey teams, prize fightsand a Beatles concert.

“Other than the teamsthat play in college towns,this is thebiggest rink thatany high school in Ohioplays in,”Reedersaid.“It’sa lotofhistoryformyself.”

Moellermade themovetothenorthernconferenceseven years ago for com-

petition purposes. TheCrusaders compete in theCHC-Red Division withDublin Coffman, DublinJerome, Olentangy Or-ange andOlentangyLiber-ty. TheWhiteDivision fea-tures St. Francis DeSales,St. Charles, Gahanna Lin-coln and Upper Arlington,with theBlue composed ofThomas Worthington,Olentangy, WorthingtonKilbourne, Dublin Sciotoand BishopWatterson.

“It’s been successfulfor the growth of the skillof the kids,” Reeder said.“It’s nicely ran and it’s in ahub. There’s only 30 hubsin North American whereNHL teams are and nowwe’re playing in one ofthose.”

Seniors for Moeller areAndrew Carmichael, Con-nor Iuni, Billy Rinderle,

Alex Armour and BrianTempel. Armour is thecaptain who also enjoysplaying in the buildingmodeled after Toronto’sMaple Leaf Gardens.

“You think of all the proguys that played here andall of the great guys thatplayed here,” Armoursaid. “Itmeansa lot toplayhere almost every day.”

In goal for the Crusad-ers is a 6-foot-6 masked“minder” in Tempel.Somehow, the other sportshave left the first teamall-league player alone at tal-ent-richMoeller.

“With the pads on he’sgiant,” Reeder said. “He’snot missed a dry landworkout in four years.He’s very in to it. He’s fo-cused on hockey. It’s whathe’s always wanted to do.”

Juniors are Devin De-groft,PhilMcDonald,JakeFessel, Ben Sattler, HankWoodard and Drew De-noyer. Sophomores in-clude Tony Lebarge, Char-lie Krejsa, Alec Gabel,AdamMeister, Owen Bay-er and Braeden Bowra.

None of them havespent much time in the in-famous penalty box.

“This team has beenreally good,” Reeder said.“We play hard. If otherteams want to take penal-ties on us, we go on thepower play and win. Wehaven’t taken more thanthree penalties in a gameall year.” Reeder’s skaterswill be in Bowling Greenfor a Christmas tourna-ment Dec. 27-29.

St. XavierThe Bombers are off to

a 4-2-1 start despite a de-

pleted roster through thefirst quarter of the seasonin the Southwest OhioHigh School HockeyLeague.

“We can’t keep all ourplayers on the ice,” coachAdam Tramonte said.“Whether it’s a sickness orinjury, we just never seemto have a full squad. … Ijust wish we could stayhealthy.”

While it may seem theinjuries haven’t had muchof an impact early on,things get complicatedwhen you don’t have thesame guys on the ice day-in-and-day-out.

“I think we have theability to be pretty good,”Tramonte said. “It’s tough-er to become better whenwe can’t practice every-day with a full squad. Weare always plugging guysin here and here in prac-tice and then all of a sud-den thenext daywehaveadifferent guy over here.”

One constant for theBombershasbeentheplayofdefensemenTaylorFiel-man. The junior team cap-tain has one goal on theseason, but it’s his ap-proach in practice and inthe locker roomwhere hisimpact is felt most.

Fellow team captainDan Pfeil is currently outwith a wrist injury but isexpected back within thenext couple weeks. Thethird and final team cap-tain is Chad Archdeacon,who is one of just two sen-iors on the Bombers’ ros-ter.Theseniorhasonegoaland three assists so far.

A publication of

The drive along Interstate275 is the scene of a battlefield.Thousands of giant soldiers arein a battle to save their lives.Unfortunately, the enemies arewinning. With too many forcesworking against them, thesoldiers don’t stand a chance.They need replacements.

The drive, that once provid-ed an awesome view of expan-sive greenery, is now a scene ofbarren and broken limbs andmasses of dead or dying trees.Throughout the Tristate region,thousands of trees are caughtin a battle against disease,insect infestations and invasivespecies. The emerald ash borer,an invasive beetle which boresinto trees and disrupts the flowof nutrients, is now attackingthe nine species of native ashthroughout the region.

In total, more than 20 mil-lion trees will inevitably be lostto the emerald ash borer in theTri-State region within the next10 years.

Other insects are alsothreatening the tree canopy. InClermont County, the Asianlonghorned beetle is respon-sible for the loss of 9,000 trees.Although this beetle is expect-ed to be contained and eradi-

cated, it hascaused signifi-cant damage,and its poten-tial to returnrequires con-tinued vigi-lance. Anothernew threat isthe walnuttwig beetle,which carries afungus fatal to

black walnut trees.Insect infestations are not

the only threats to the region’strees. Disease and other in-vasive species also endangerlocal forests. With the increaseof invasive plants like hon-eysuckle and the floweringpear, forests can’t regenerateand open areas can’t re-forestas they have in the past. Thetree seedlings that do surviveoften fall victim to deer, whosegrowing population consumeyoung plants before they havea chance to mature. With allthese factors working againstthem, trees and forests arestruggling

What can be done to keepthe trees we have and replacethe ones that are lost? TheOhio-Kentucky-Indiana Re-

gional Council of Governments,the Cincinnati Zoo & BotanicalGarden, the Green Partnershipfor Greater Cincinnati and theGreen Umbrella have joinedforces to create Taking Root, abroad-based campaign to ad-dress the current and historicloss of the region’s tree canopy.Through education and im-proved management, the cam-paign hopes to better maintainexisting trees and also to plant2 million trees by 2020 (one foreveryone in the region).

This is not the first time the

region’s trees have been vic-tims of a battle. In the late1800s, much of the region hadbeen de-forested. It was duringthis time when Cincinnati be-came a prominent leader in themovement to conserve thenation’s forestry. In 1875, Cin-cinnati natives formed theAmerican Forestry Associa-tion. Seven years later, theFirst Annual Forestry Con-gress was held in Cincinnati. Itcalled for “the discussion ofsubjects relating to tree plant-ing: the conservation, manage-

ment, and renewal of forests.”Two days later, the superinten-dent of Cincinnati schools, JohnB. Peaslee, closed all schoolsand every Cincinnati childwent to an abandoned vineyardand planted trees. That vine-yard is now Eden Park.

In order to overcome theloss of the region’s tree canopy,the community must onceagain come together. Treescannot fight this battle on theirown, and their loss would resultin devastating environmentaland economic consequences.Taking Root is leading the bat-tle to save the region’s treesthrough a collaborative effortin which communities will beprovided opportunities to jointhe fight and help ensure thattrees come out the winner.

The tree crisis: Reviving a battlefield

TiaGarciaCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

Last week’s questionTime magazine has named

Pope Francis as its Person of theYear. What do you think of thechoice? Whomwould you chooseas Person of the Year?

“Pope Francis as ‘Person ofthe Year’ from Time is a greatchoice; he’s liberal minded andhumble – more Catholicsshould follow the example!”

TRog

“I thinkPopeFranciswas anexcellent choice. Of course Imay have some bias as I waspartially trained in the Jesuitway which encourages criticalthinking.

“This Jesuit is in the besttradition of that order, service

to others. He has quicklysteered the Catholic Churchback towardswhere it belongs,which is the tending to its flock.

“Since I amanOrthodoxAg-nostic, I am not concernedwhat happens to the church formy own sake, but it does makeme feelwonderfulwhen a lead-

er of such a huge congregationshows and demonstrates loveand goodwill to all.

“Just hope that other reli-gious and secular leaders inthis world will do the same.”

J.Z.

“Perfect pick. He repre-

sents humility and service toothers, anexample toall peopleof all faiths or no faiths.”

T.B.

“I do not think that the popewould be my choice for man ofthe year.Honestly, I can’t thinkof anyone who is deserving ofthat honor, if it really is an hon-or anymore. Some of the selec-tions in the past have been hor-rible.

“Maybe I should nominatemyself as I have had a prettygood year, I didn’t kill anyone,rape ormaimanyone and prob-ably have lived as honorably asthe pope. Whether it is underthispopeorthenextIamafraidhe will give in on homosexual-ity and abortion. I would never

allow this if I was running thechurch.”

Dave D.

“Time’s Person of the Yearno longer has much signifi-cance.Weeklynewsmagazinespeakedyears agoandno longerhave the impact they once en-joyed.

“Myprimarysourceofnewsis TV, but I rely on the Cincin-nati Enquirer to get the details.The same is true of the ForestHills Journal when it comes toeastside news.

“To wait one week for newsof national and global impor-tance, even if it is in-depthnews, is old-fashioned. Dittofortheconceptofnamingaper-son of the year.”

NEXT QUESTIONShould the U.S. adopt an advisory panel’s recommendations to end thegovernment’s systematic collection of logs of all Americans’ cellularphone calls and require those to be kept in private hands “for queriesand data mining” only by court order? Why or why not?

Every week we ask readers a question they can reply to viae-mail. Send your answers [email protected] Chatroom in thesubject line.

Many people are calling fora government-run single payertype of health insurance. Howmany of those people wouldcall for it if it were run by abusiness?

We should take some time tolook at reality. The plain truthis that either would be bad.Let’s look at the facts. I am nota fan of anything run by thegovernment due to the normalinefficiencies of limited fi-nancial and ethical controls.Reality tells us that govern-ment control means payoffs topolitical donors. It also meanslittle financial control due tothe false premise that anythingthe government runs is donefor the benefit of all citizens. Itreally means that it is done tocreate voting blocs to perma-nently secure positions forpoliticians.

Enough of the failures ofgovernment. Let’s look at theproblems of a corporate mo-nopoly in the same position.And, let us assume that thecorporate entity is totally hon-est, at least to begin with. Howlong will that honesty stand thepressures of the incentives ofprofits, payments to providers,

legal claims,threats fromcompromisedelected per-sons to createcompetition,pleas for vitaland/or ques-tionable re-search anddemands fromsuppliers for

preferences or higher prices?That solution is also not in ourinterest.

The obvious answer is tocreate a competitive system. Iam in the situation where Ihave changed an insuranceprovider. This is because oneof my preferred doctors willnot be covered in my formerplan. My new provider hasoffered everything I want in aplan that fits my needs and mybudget. It is with a companythat many of my friends haveand are very pleased with. Ican be reasonably sure thatthey will want to keep me as acustomer.

As a former businessman, Iam well aware that competi-tion creates efficiencies andcustomer satisfaction. There is

no question that a competitivesystem generates choices andcontrol of costs that are notfound in either a governmentor private monopoly.

When we apply for a lifeinsurance policy, our accep-tance and rates are based onour age and condition. Theseare factors that should alsoapply to health insurance.People who have poor healthhabits should be made respon-sible for their poor choices.

Pre-existing conditionsshould be covered by insur-ance purchased prior to birth,preferably at conception. Thecost would be very small andhandled by special firms thatcover it in perpetuity.

While the conditions mayrequire some consideration, atransfer of the small amounton the original policy wouldeliminate political arguing. Mysuggestion is that the costwould be covered by a tax onpolitical advertisements. Howis that for creating honesty andefficiency?

DECEMBER 26, 2013 • INDIAN HILL JOURNAL • B3LIFE

I’m going to have tomake sure I put makeupon before going out to thegrocery or retail store.

The pastcouple oftimes I wasat theseplaces,readersstoppedme to chat.Both timesI was plan-ning onrunning inand out

quickly so I didn’t botherwith makeup, only a bitof lipstick. Well, I had tolaugh afterward at myvanity. (Why did I thinkno one would recognizeme “au naturel”?)

It’s times like thosethat keep me humble! Iwanted to let each of youknow howmuch I’veappreciated the caringand sharing that happenseach week through thiscolumn. Happy NewYear! I hope 2014 bringsmany blessings to yourhome.

Bob and John’seggplant casserole

Reader John Pancoastsent this, which is now afavorite for entertainingat his and wife Priscilla’shome. “From friend BobMartin of Loveland,”John said. John addedfresh, coarse driedbreadcrumbs on top forextra crunchiness. I’mlooking forward to mak-ing this myself. John saidif you use a 9-inch by13-inch pan, you’ll get

more crunchy top sur-face area.

1 large eggplant, peeled andcut into 1⁄2-inch cubes

1 sleeve of Townhousecrackers (about 40crackers), crumbledcoarsely

1 cup whipping cream8 oz. shredded extra-sharpcheddar

1 tablespoon lemon juice(optional)

Preheat oven to 350degrees. Heat six cupswater to full boil in largepot. Add lemon juice ifdesired (some think itkeeps eggplant fromdarkening). Add eggplantto boiling water. Stireggplant frequently, itwill be floating on top ofwater. Cook just untilwater starts to return toa boil, about three min-utes. Do NOT overdo thisstep or eggplant willbecome rubbery! Drainand transfer to sprayedtwo-quart casserole.Sprinkle crackers on top.Pour in cream and addcheese. Stir until blend-ed. Bake uncovered for 1hour or until it starts tobrown on top and gets alittle crusty aroundedges.

Priscilla Pancoast’seasy corn pudding

Another Pancoastfavorite. Let me know ifyou want this recipe.“Everyone who tastes itwants the recipe,” Pris-cilla told me.

No-fuss standing ribroast

One of the meat cut-ters at the grocery toldme he has success withthis holiday roast everytime he makes it. Gosh, apretty good testimonialcoming from him. Sear-ing the roast on the out-side at a high temper-ature insures a moistinside. Preheat oven to450 degrees. Season rawroast as desired. Placerib side down in a panand roast 10-15 minutes.Careful here, you mayget some splattering.Reduce oven temper-ature to 250 degrees androast until thermometerreads about 125 for rareor up to 145 for medium.The roast continues tocook at least 5 degreesmore when it’s out of theoven. Let it rest, tentedloosely with foil, forabout 20-30 minutes be-fore carving.

Caribbean citrussalad dressing

I really like this for aholiday buffet. Let guestsdrizzle on top of saladmade with mixed greens.This can be made severaldays ahead. If you havesome fresh parsley, tossa bit in. Taste beforeadding salt and pepper.Whisk together:

1 cupmayonnaise1⁄2 teaspoon garlic or to taste1 tablespoon honey1 tablespoon Dijonmustard2 tablespoons olive oil1⁄3 cup orange juice

concentrate, thawed, or totaste

Brunch eggcasserole withsausage, potatoesand cheese

Nice for that NewYear’s day brunch. Sautésausage ahead of timeand bring to room tem-perature before continu-ing.

1pound hot pork sausage or

your favorite, cooked3 cups frozen hash browns,thawed completely

12 oz. shredded cheddar12 large eggs, lightly beaten2 cups 2 percent milk orwhatever you have

Salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 350degrees. Place hashbrowns in sprayed 9-inchby 13-inch pan. Top withsausage and cheese.Whisk eggs milk andseasonings and pour on

top. Bake 50-60 minutesuntil somewhat puffedand golden. Toothpickinserted in center shouldcome out clean.

The Cincinnati Play-house in the Park’s Offthe Hill series for fam-ilies continues in Januarywith the world premiereof “Joan the Girl of Arc,”which will tour to commu-nity venues throughoutthe Tristate from Jan. 17through Feb. 22. Recom-mended for ages 11 andup, this inspiring playoffers a new perspectiveon the classic story of theyoung woman who helpedsave France.

The adventure openswith Joan as a young girljust starting to examineher beliefs. As she beginsto understand herself andthe world around her, shelearns to inspire and leadothers.

“Joan the Girl of Arc”will be directed by Play-house Associate ArtistK.J. Sanchez, who direct-ed the world premiere of“Seven Spots on the Sun”in the Thompson Shelter-house Theatre.

“When I was a younggirl, Joan of Arc was oneof my first heroes,” San-chez said. “I grew upbefore terrific books likeThe Hunger Games andhad no heroic figures myage. To top it off, Joanwas a girl, this young girlwho changed the courseof the war betweenFrance and England. Thatshe was a real person, noless, was incredibly ap-pealing. Hers is a story ofcourage— the courage tostand up for what shebelieved in. When all theadults in her life doubtedher, Joan held to what sheknew to be true andchanged history with hercourage.”

This adaptation iswritten by Darrah Cloud,who previously wrote“What’s Buggin’ Greg”for Off the Hill in 2011. “Iwas drawn to the writerbecause of her skills andpassion for our work,”said Mark Lutwak, educa-

tion director at the Play-house. “We agreed thatthe story of Joan of Archad a lot in it to speak tothe youth of today.”

Chelsea D. Harrison(Joan), Jon Kovach (Dan-iel), Rico Reid (Father/Captain Baudricort/HighPriest), Shayna Schmidt(Denise) and JustinWeaks (Father Moreau/Dauphin) from the Play-house’s Bruce E. CoyleIntern Company will

appear in “Joan the Girlof Arc.” Other productionteammembers includeChristopher Boone (setdesigner), Gordon DeVin-ney (Costume Designer),Jeremy J. Lee (sounddesigner) and Tracy Hoi-da (stage manager).

The Ohio Departmentof Transportation(ODOT) is using an In-ternet-based feedbackprogram to give the pub-lic more opportunity toengage in the planningand development of Oa-sis – Greater Cincinnati’sfirst commuter rail line.

Available at www.Eas-ternCorridor.org, thisonline tool gives the pub-lic a chance to weigh inon topics ranging frompriorities for travel todesired amenities at railstations – all from thecomfort of their ownhomes.

“Public meetings arean essential part of theproject planning process.However, they are alsolimited in their reach andwe want to go further,”said Steve Mary, DeputyDirector of ODOT, Dis-trict 8.

“This software allowsus to go where the peopleare – online. People canview the information weshared at the Oasis railmeetings, then tell uswhat’s important to themusing this interactiveplatform. The more inputwe have from the public,the better we can devel-op a project that bestmeets the needs anddesires of local commu-nities.”

A core element of theEastern Corridor Pro-gram, Oasis Rail Transitintroduces a new publictransportation option tothe region and wouldserve communities ex-tending east from down-town Cincinnati, throughHamilton County, andinto western ClermontCounty.

The interactive feed-

back tool, known as Met-roQuest, will remainavailable to the publicthrough Jan. 10.

“The Oasis rail linewill provide significant,tangible benefits to ourregion, from reducingpolluting emissions togrowing our economy,”said Hamilton CountyCommissioner Todd Por-tune.“This online tool isan excellent way to gobeyond the confines of asingle meeting space andgive voice to the broaderpublic about what mat-ters most to them.”

The public can accessMetroQuest directly atwww.EasternCorrido-r.org. Results and re-sponses to comments

received will be providedin the Oasis Rail Transitpublic meeting report,expected out in mid-February. More informa-tion is available atwww.EasternCorrido-r.org or by calling theEastern Corridor hotlineat 513-888-7625.

A core element of theEastern Corridor Pro-gram, the 17-mile OasisRail Transit line willintroduce a new trans-portation choice to theEastern Corridor region,moving residents, work-ers and visitors betweendowntown Cincinnati, thecity of Milford and thecommunities in between.
