MONTGOMERY — Montgo-meryCityCouncilunanimous-ly approved a resolution giv-ing City Manager Wayne Da-vis a raise and commendinghim for the work he’s donesince being appointed May 7,

2012.“We believe

asacouncil thatyou’ve done anoutstanding jobover the pastyear,” Council-woman GerriHarbison said.“We did autho-rize a 5 percent

pay increase to bring your sal-ary to $126,006.04 ... you’vedone a great job, Wayne. Ithink all the staff agrees withthat and we appreciate yourhard work.”

The resolution also stipu-lated Davis would receiveninemonths of terminal bene-fits if he is fired by council in-stead of the three-month termpreviously in place.

“It’s onward and upwardfrom here,” Mayor Ken Suersaid.

Since moving into his posi-tion following a stint as in-terim city manager, Davispoints to theworkofcitycoun-cil as the reason the citymadeprogress on the Vintage Clubdevelopment with Christ Hos-pital – work slated to beginaroundAug.1– and is on trackwith its five-year strategicplan.

“We have excellent leadershere,” Davis said. “They’renot posturing or grandstand-ing or politicking, they’reworking as a group to dowhat’s best for the communi-ty.”

Davis said the job requireshimtobe“oncall”dayornightto ensure Montgomery citi-zens and businesses have the

services they require. Work-ingwithpeople is thebest partof his job but, at times, can bethe most challenging, he said.

“Working with people isreally the thing that’s so dy-namic,”Davis said. “I’mmuchcloser to thepopulaceandpeo-ple who are ultimately theshareholders.”

As far as Montgomery be-ing where he wants to work,Davis said prior experiencewith the federal governmentmakes working in a smallercommunity more rewarding,where democracy is more ac-cessible. The passion for“community” thatMontgome-ry citizens show when accom-panied by volunteerism andengagement in the politicalprocess make the city unique,Davis said.

A few technologychanges could be in storefor Symmes Township'sfire stations.

Loveland/SymmesFire Deputy Chief An-drew Knapp told theBoard of Trustees at itsmeeting June 4 that theInternet capabilities at

each station aren't effec-tive enough for employ-ees tooperateasefficient-ly as possible. He addedthat thestationsuseasim-ilar technology that peo-ple use in their homes,which isn't sufficient forwhat the department usesthe Internet to do.

Knapp said that al-though the Internet con-nection is used for aver-

age tasks in offices, a lotof training for firefight-ers is accessed online.While that cuts down onpaid time and mileage, headded that much of theirtraining involves memo-ry-heavy videos, whichdon't perform well on thestations' current connec-tions.

In addition to training,the fire department uses

Internet to access storeddocuments on a remoteserver. Those documents,which include incident re-ports, are used daily. Thecurrent connection, how-ever, doesn't includeenough bandwidth to pre-vent getting kicked out ofthe server.

For both stations, thecost for Internet permonth is about $160,

Knapp said. The in-creased speed and con-nection will hike that costup to about $480 a month.He added that Loveland'sstations upgraded aboutfour years ago. Fiscal Of-ficer Carol Sims said thefire department's budgetcan handle that increase.

Symmes Township’sfire stations are at 9425Loveland-Madeira Road

in Camp Dennison and8871 Weekly Lane at theSymmes Township SafetyServices Center. Theboard will approve or de-ny this potential update ata future meeting.

great for the city whenpeople look at what thiswill do for Blue Ash.”

Everyone Klasmeiersaid he talked to was ex-cited about the new parkin town and the design ofit, he said.

“It’s really the icing onthe cake for the city,”Klasmeier said. “How

could anybody not lovethis design and every-thing it’s going to bring?”

Klasmeier said hecredits city council withgetting the early phasesof the park plan done be-cause they tookcommuni-ty input and worked to-ward a common goal to dotheright thing for thecity.

Councilwoman Stepha-nie Stoller said it’s good tohave the project underway, but there is still plen-ty of work ahead.

The first phase of theproject isexpectedto takea couple of years and bedone in three to fiveyears, while the finishedproduct is expected in2017.

Sycamore CommunitySchools are finding cost-effec-tive ways to reduce their wasteand instill students with envi-ronmentalknowledge.Asignifi-cant issue for schools is han-dling waste generated from thelunch room.

Therefore, all Sycamore K-6buildings are engaging stu-dents, staff and parents to helpreduce lunch room wastethrough wasteless lunches. Theschool plans these garbage-freelunch days four times perschool year to help students un-derstand responsible wastemanagement, while also help-ing schools reduce their wastebill.

During these lunches, Syca-more’s ChildNutrition Servicesserves foods in school cafete-rias that can be eaten withoututensils, as well as fruits andvegetables that canbecompost-ed. Condiments are also servedfrom bottles instead of individ-ual packets andmilkbottles andbeverage cans are recycled asusual. In addition, each schoolprovides students and familieswith informationonhowtopacka garbage-free lunch.

Blue Ash Elementary andSymmes Elementary have tak-en waste reduction a step fur-ther.

Symmes Elementary is nowcommercial composting waste

in the school cafeteria, whichwillallowtheschooltonowcom-postall foodwaste,divertingap-proximately 150 pounds ofwaste per week from landfills.

“During a waste audit con-ducted by Sycamore HighSchool students last year, welearned a large amount ofwastein our cafeterias is food waste,”said Elizabeth Bruggeman,Symmes PTO Green Teamchairperson. “So, the DistrictGo Green Teammade commer-cial composting one of our topinitiatives this year. We teamedupwith Hamilton County Recy-cling andSolidWasteDistrict topilot the initiative at Symmes,withgoal to institute itatallSyc-amore schools next year.”

Havingcomposted foryears,Symmes has been able to im-prove their efforts due to dona-tions that allowed fora stainlesssteel “sorting table” to be addedto the school cafeteria, makingitmucheasierforstudents toef-ficiently sort their waste.Rumpke will then haul waste toa commercial composting field.

“Our main goal is to reducethe amount of waste and foodgoing to the landfill,” Brugge-man said. “Our other goal is toteach our students to be respon-sible stewards of the environ-ment. They understand thatthey aremaking a difference intheir world!”

Blue Ash Elementary stu-dents are also making a differ-ence through composting.

During the 2012-2013 schoolyear, Blue Ash Elementary re-ceived a grant from the Hamil-ton County Recycling and SolidWaste District for on-site com-posting. The school used thegrant to buy two composters, ascomposting is an easy, inexpen-sive way to reduce the amountof garbage thrown away. Now,students and staff are sendingless material to landfills be-cause theyare lettingnature re-cycle their fruit and vegetablescraps, paper bags, napkins andpapers towels.

“We have lots of elementarystudents who are excited aboutusingreusablecontainers,recy-

cling theirmilk bottles and bev-erage cans, and compostingtheir leftover fruitsandveggiesin the school garden,” said Sa-rahNewman,chairpersonoftheBlue Ash Elementary GreenTeam.

School administrators agree.“Our students showgreat en-

thusiasm for recycling andcomposting. The compostingproject and Waste-less Lunchdays have been such a successfor Blue Ash Elementary,” saidCombs, principal of the schoolthat composts more than 32pounds of food scraps on gar-bage-free lunch days.

“The composting programimplemented by Blue Ash Ele-mentary would be easy for anyschool to replicate,” said Mi-

chelle Balz, community out-reach coordinator forHamiltonCounty Recycling and SolidWaste District. “We have finan-cial and informational re-sources available to helpschools reduce their wastestream.”

Hamilton County RecyclingandSolidWasteDistrict distrib-utes up to $100,000 each yearthrough a competitive grant ap-plication process. Grants areavailable to assist schools, com-munities and non-profit organi-zations with innovative wastereduction, recycling, and orcompost programs thatwill sig-nificantly reduce the grantees’waste stream. The next dead-line for grant applications isSept. 26.

Some Indian Hill HighSchool science students havegone beyond just talking aboutthe weather. They are immers-ing themselves in it.

The school recently receivedan actual weather stationwhichwas installed on a pavilion onschool grounds.

Advanced Placement envi-ronmental science teacherSteve Meyers has begun usingthe station in his class.

“(It) provides us with de-tailed local weather informa-tion that the students can use tocompare and contrast weathercomponents,” he said.

The station provides a myri-ad of data on weather condi-

tions ranging from barometricpressure and precipitation lev-els to humidity and wind speed.

“It’s a good tool to learnabout the different climatesand weather,” said junior LydiaGrote, of Kenwood.

Grote said the students havebeen involved in a lab interpret-ing weather data.

She said the school’sweatherstation is used in conjunctionwith other resources such asstream gauges and solar panelsthat are operated by othergroups.

With all of this informationthe students can get a broadoverview of weather conditionsnot only locally but nationally.

Junior Connor Klinedinst, ofIndian Hill, said the class wasable to closely study baromet-

ric pressures connected toHur-ricane Sandy in October.

Klinedinst’s mother, LoriKlinedinst, was involved inhelping obtain funds for theweather station through the In-dian Hill Public Schools Foun-dation. Lori Klinedinst is exec-utivedirector of the foundation.

The weather station costabout $1,600.

Meyers said he hopes thestudentsuse the station for indi-vidual study. “They can delveinto (weather) on a daily basisabove and beyond the class,” hesaid.

Connor Klinedinst said shealready enjoys the opportuni-ties provided by access to thestation.

“It makes me feel like a me-teorologist,” she said.

MONTGOMERY —May-or Ken Suer awarded thefirst two MontgomeryMayor's Scholarships to apair of Sycamore HighSchool graduates.

Suer used the moneyhe earned performingmarriages in his mayoralcapacity to fund the $500scholarships. The schol-arships were awarded tostudents in governmentclass at SHS working onAgenda360–aproject ini-tially started by the Cin-cinnati USA RegionalChamberofCommerce tobring people back to Cin-cinnati once they havecompleted education ortraining elsewhere.

Jenna Lema will at-

tend the University ofCincinnati to study busi-ness and said shehopes tobeanaccountant inthefu-ture.

“Being one of the peo-ple selected is a big deal,”Lema said. “I like how themayor set up the scholar-ship because it makesmore people want to getmore involved.”

Lema looked at theVintage Club develop-ment for her project andalthough the Montgome-ry resident found the sub-jectdauntingat thebegin-ning, she credits FrankDavis, community devel-opment director, with ex-plaining the details.

“The only thing I knewabout itwas that it’s goingto be an underground ga-rage,” Lema said. “Aftermeeting withMr. Davis, Ilearned it will have res-taurants,abankandretailstores – itwill begreat forthe community.”

James Jolley startscollege at Miami Univer-sity and also will studybusiness and wants to fo-cus in either finance oraccounting.

“It feels pretty good toreceive the scholarship,”Jolley said. “I thought Ihad a strong project thatfocused on simplethings.”

Jolley’s project aimedto alleviate someof the is-sues with parking indowntown Montgomery.TheBlue Ash resident fo-cused on missing or awk-wardly placed signs.

“I never knew whereto park so I checked out

the situation and found apretty big lot, but noticedmisleading signs,” Jolleysaid.“Itwouldbealoteas-ier if some signs weremoved and some newsigns were in place.”

Suercongratulatedthestudents and said hehopes the Agenda 360project can fuel currentstudents to be more en-gaged in government.

“There is certainlysome value ... with hands-on experience and real-world experience,” Suersaid. “Someone has tostep forward and get in-volved if we are going tohave our systemcontinuethe way it is in the UnitedStates.

The Indian Hill HighSchool mock trial teamhad a successful day incourt.

They placed first indistrict competition.

This is the team’s sixthdistrict championshipsince 2003, and accordingto StephenReger, instruc-tor and head coach, a ma-jor accomplishment.

It is the most districtchampionships in thattime frame in the state, hesaid.

The team,which is des-ignated as “The RedTeam,” will now proceed

to regional and state com-petitions. The team wonlast year’s state champi-onship.

“I like to argue,” jokedteam captain Aaron Hall,a senior and resident ofKenwood, about his in-volvement with the mocktrial team.

Each team is given anopportunity to play boththe role of prosecutionand defense.

This particular case in-volves a a 15-year-oldteen’s confession of arsonand whether police co-erced the confession, saidteam captain Reagan Wil-kins, a senior from IndianHill.

“I just like the chal-lenge of it,” said Wilkinsabout her participation inmock trial competition.

Students on the teamalso play the role of wit-nesses.

Senior Julia Horst, ofKenwood, won a best wit-ness award in state com-petition last year.

“It givesmea reason toexplore an area Iwouldn’tnecessarily pursue on myown,”saidHorstabout thedifferent topics the casesinvolve.

Senior Laurin Schwab,of Indian Hill, said she iscontinuing a traditionwith her involvement onthe team.

Both her brother andsister have been on previ-ous mock trial teams atthe school.

“We call it the ‘Schwabdynasty,’” she said.

Schwab, who is also ateam captain, said she en-joys the thrill of competi-tion. “It’s definitely greatto have such an experi-ence,” she said.

submitted to The NortheastSuburban Life may be publishedor distributed in print, electronicor other forms.

Writers should be clear about pointI have just finished read-

ing Ms. Winsner’s column(June 5 Northeast SuburbanLife), which opens with asweeping, questionable gen-eralization, and closes with avague exhortation to contactyour representative in Wash-ington about …I’m not sure.Is it Obamacare? Is it theIRS?

I wish people on all sides inany debate would be clearabout their point.

Firstly, let me take openissue with Ms. Winser’s pointabout “Obamacare,” which isthe derogatory name the Pa-tient Protection and Afford-able Care Act is given bythose that fear that once peo-ple see the actual name of theact they might like it.

In fact, I am thinking that

Ms. Winsneris one of thelucky Amer-icans able toafford healthinsurance,and one of thepeople whohas no qualmsin backingcongressionalspending to

cover the 37 (yes, THIRTY-SEVEN) failed attempts torepeal the act, while peoplehave to make a choice everyday in this country betweenrent, food or health care.

The fact that this countrysigned an international treatyguaranteeing access to healthcare for all citizens, not longafter the founding of theUnited Nations, and still has

not lived up to its promise,does not phase the “liberty”“Tea Party” based groups.

The fact that Cuba nowranks higher than this coun-try for several health careparameters according to theconservative leaning Britishmagazine The Economist doesnot matter to them either.

No. Obamacare must go,because…. It’s a Democrat-sourced idea. Every otherexcuse is guff, and it shamesus a nation that we have votednot once, not twice but thirty-seven times to repeal it, andhave failed, because – andhere’s an amazing concept –our democratically electedrepresentatives have decidedit should stay.

So I ask you Ms. Winser: ifit is so “very unpopular” why

have people of your beliefstried 37 times – and failed – torepeal it? Could it be that themajority of Americans cannotindeed, afford health care?

When I hear you deridinghealth care you never whis-per a word about Finland andSweden, two countries thathave public health care sys-tems that work well.

And Britain’s NationalHealthcare System, so oftenderided by certain Amer-icans, was a point of pride inthe opening ceremonies ofthe Summer Olympics lastyear.

Secondly, no American canagree with the targeting ofany group by the IRS becauseof political affiliation. Weshould all be appalled. In thatwe are in complete agree-

ment.However, I would also like

to point out that I paid morefederal income tax than GElast year. You probably did aswell. It’s not hard.

I would think that an arti-cle on how unfair the IRS iswould include at least a refer-ence to these inequalities.Targeting you and me insteadof big business seems unfairto say the least.

Instead, somehow youlinked the unfairness of theIRS to the Patient Protectionand Affordable Care Act.

Yes, the title of your arti-cle was dead on: “The IRS andObamacare … seriously?”

your destination and associat-ed costs. Know the priceranges of the restaurants youwant to visit and the activ-ities you want to pursue, andunderstand the terms of yourrental or hotel booking.

» Set a budget based onyour research. Put aside mon-ey each week toward yourgoal, and start early.

» Look for deals. Severalorganizations offer member-ship discounts, and you mayfind additional savingsthrough your credit card, thearea’s visitors bureau, attrac-tion websites and travel sites.

» Try to be flexible ondates. It can make a big dif-ference in the cost of lodgingand flights.

»Notify trusted neighborsthat you’ll be away and whenyou expect to return. Letthem know if you will have ahouse sitter.

» Place a hold on your mailand newspaper deliveries orask a friend or neighbor topick them up. You also maywant to have your yard main-tained. A pile of newspapersand an overgrown yard cansignal an empty house.

» Simulate a “lived-in”appearance by using timersfor turn lights and a radio orTV during expected hours.

»Notify your credit card

providers of your travelplans: When you’re leaving,where you’re going and whenyou’ll return. This helps com-panies identify fraudulentcharges if your card is usedin an area you’re not visiting.

»Do not share your travelplans on social networkingsites.

During your trip»Make lunch, rather than

dinner, your big meal out.Prices are lower and oftenthe menu is the same.

» Take advantage ofsmartphone apps that canhelp you find the best pricesfor gas and other savings.

»Use mobile banking appsto monitor accounts and trackspending so you don’t havesurprises when statementsarrive. Ice creams, souvenirsand drink tabs add up fast.

»Never carry largeamounts of cash; use trav-eler’s checks or credit cards.

» Take only your driver’slicense/official ID and twocredit cards: one to carry,another to lock in a safe incase your wallet is stolen.

»Don’t access financialdata or personal informationon public computers or publicWi-Fi networks. Be cautiouswhen accessing a hotel roomInternet connection.

» If you use an ATM,choose one inside a bank.Well-lit lobbies with securitycameras, bank employeesand customers provide moresecurity for you and for theATM, meaning it is less likelyto be a tampering target forfraudsters.

When you return» Let friends and family

know you’re home.»Get your mail. Open it

and electronic mail promptlyto address bills or other ur-gent matters.

» Continue to monitor youraccounts. Check statementsto make sure nothing is out ofplace. If you notice some-thing unusual or fraudulent,contact your provider imme-diately.

Happy trails, and a safeand happy return!

Ian MitchellCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

June 12 questionOhio legislators are consider-

ing a bill which would requireonly rear license plates on vehi-cles. Is this a good idea? Why orwhy not?

“Great idea. Saves moneyand bumpers.”

J.S.G.

“Without enforcement ofthe current law why have alaw? I see many cases where afront plate is lacking.

“When I picked up my lastnew vehicles, the dealer askedwhether I wanted the frontplates mounted. He said manypeople do not want the frontplate mounted any more.

“I defer to the police agen-cies on this issue. Theywant tokeep the front plate as theyclaim this aids in missing per-son cases, wanted persons andstolen vehicles. That is a pret-ty strong case.

“But, if this be the case whydon’t they enforce the currentlaw?”

T.J.

“I see no real problem withthe deletion of the front plateexcept for specialty plates forthe handicap, DUI, etc..

“If the plate was deleted, Ithink there shouldbea law thatvehicles can not carry platesinside cars in windows. I see asevere problem in accidentsthat plates become flying ob-jects and can cause injuries orworse. I’m sure therewould bea great financial savings toeliminate the front plate.”

D.J.

“I do not think it is a goodidea, as I feel that both platesbeing visible would help peo-ple to identify the plates ofcriminals fleeing the scene ofa crime. If a witness can onlysee the front of the car andthere is no license plate, an im-

portant clue to the identity ofthe ‘bad guy’ will be lost.”

C.H

.“This is a good idea. Makes

thecar lookbetter, other statesallow for1rear plate.Whynot?What’s taken Ohio so long?

“But I would hope the legis-lators have better things tospend their time on (e.g., rightto work legislation, etc) thanthis.”

T.B.

“When I bought my last carthe dealer asked if I wanted afront license plate bracket, asif it was optional. Over time, Ihave observed that a greatmany people with Ohio platesalready leave the front one off.

“I have never heard of any-one getting cited for not hav-ing one. If the police don’tcare, who should. It wouldsavemoney andmake it easierto change plates. Many otherstates don’t require a frontplate.”

F.S.D.

“Ohio legislators are lost inthe abortion issue, and don’tcare about silly license platestuff. Their thinking is thatwhile they MIGHT vote tosave our Earth’s resources,they WILL control decisionsyoumight make in the privacyof your home with your lovedones.”

K.P.

“I grew up in PA where thesingle license plate was thenorm, and still is. Of course,we had no ‘deputy’ taking a cutof the finances, and peopleweren’t required to buy twoplates. Car registration wasmanaged by mail and workedjust fine. It was also less ex-pensive for the driver.

“On balance, they had theirownextra costs in termsof ‘ve-hicle inspection’ that consum-ers had to purchase and dis-play a sticker in the window. Isee no reason to have two li-cense plates, one on the rearworks just fine.”

M.A.M.

“Well, if anyone noticed,many vehicles do not displayfront plates anyway. My ques-tion is what is the purpose of afront plate? Do away with thefront plate!”

O.H.R.

Comments from local lead-ers about issues in the news:

Whywe fear the IRS“Robust debate is a part of

the American psyche. The IRSshouldnever target anypersonor any group for political pur-poses. The agency needs toapologize to the injured andlaunch an independent investi-gation to determine who is re-sponsible.

“In addition to administer-

ing appropriate, tough punish-ment, the IRS should revise itsprocedures to preclude thisfrom happening again.”

“I understand that somegroups have misused their taxexempt status. Those groupsshould face scrutiny and havetheir status revised. But tar-geting political groups explic-itly because they are assertingtheir First Amendment rightsis far beyond the reaches ofgood government. It breaches

our trust and damages the abil-ity of the agency to do its job.The people deserve better.

“I hope both sides of theaislewill joinme in demandingaccountability on this matter.Because once the governmentdecides to infringe upon therights of one, it steps upon aslippery slope that could jeop-ardize the rights of us all.”

When it comes to food,I have a photographicmemory.

The other day when Iwas going through one ofmy vintage cookbooks

and cameacross arecipe forcinnamonpinwheels.After read-ing therecipe, Ihad a feel-ing theseare the“radiorolls” that

were available in bak-eries here. It’s not theone that uses puff pastry.This recipe calls for ayeasted dough that youform into coils and flat-ten out before baking. Ithink it’s the same rollrecipe that many of youwanted to make at home.It’s too long to print here,but I’ll post it on my blog.

Ham and basilpinwheels

If you’re growingbasil, it won’t be longbefore flowers start toform. Pinch those off(yes, they’re edible) andwhile you’re at it, cut offenough leaves to makethese pinwheels. This is ado-ahead appetizer that

keeps appetites at bayuntil the main dish isserved.

6 10-inch flour tortillas8 oz. cream cheese, softened3⁄4 cup sun-dried tomatoes,minced

12 thin slices hamFresh basil, enough to covertortillas

Mix cream cheese anddried tomatoes. Spreadeach tortilla with creamcheese mixture. Put hamslices on top. Lay basil ontop. Roll up tightly andstick toothpicks in 4-5evenly spaced spots.Cover and refrigerate forseveral hours. Slice andserve.

Marinated honeymustard grilledveggie skewers

The honey mustardlends a nice color.

4 long skewers

Whisk together:

3 tablespoons whitebalsamic vinegar

3 tablespoons honeymustard

3 tablespoons olive oil3⁄4 teaspoon crushed driedrosemary or about 2teaspoons fresh, minced

3⁄4 teaspoon onion powderSalt and pepper

Have ready:

1 red bell pepper, cut into11⁄2-inch pieces1 yellow andgreen zucchini, about 8 oz.each, cut into 1⁄2-inch thickslices

If using wooden skew-ers, soak in water 30minutes ahead of time.Put veggies in plastic bagand pour marinade over.Let sit at room temper-ature 30 minutes ormore. Thread onto skew-ers, reserving marinade.Grill, turning occasional-ly and brushing withmarinade until tender,about 15 minutes.

Savory pork roast

Howmany times haveI told you one of the mostfun things about writingthis column is the recipesyou share? Marianne D.shared her favorite reci-pe for pork roast with meand said: “The ranchdressing mix is the se-cret ingredient and it’sdiabetic friendly, too.Sometimes I’ll toss in alittle minced fresh pars-ley.”

2-3 tablespoons olive oil1 tablespoon ranch saladdressingmix

2 teaspoons Dijonmustard1 clove garlic, mincedSalt and pepper to taste21⁄2 pound boneless pork loinroast

1 cup chicken broth or water

Preheat oven to 350degrees. Mix oil, dress-ing, mustard, garlic, saltand pepper. Rub all overroast. Put roast in bakingpan and pour brotharound roast. Bake aboutan hour, or until ther-mometer reads 150 de-grees. Remove fromoven, tent with foil andlet sit 10 minutes. Serves8.

Diabetic exchanges: 4lean meat, 1/2 fat.

Tips from readers’kitchens

Opera cream cake. Somany of you told me youloved the cake. Suzanne

M. said she used a 9-inchby 13-inch pan, baked itat 375 degrees for a fewextra minutes. So if youdon’t have a jellyroll panthat the original recipecalls for, a 9-inch by 13-inch works well.

“I saw salad burnet ata garden store and won-dered what it’s used for.”Salad burnet is a hardyperennial herb thattastes like cucumber. It’sa pretty little plant withlacy green leaves and apinkish, cone-shapedflower. I like to use it insalads and to make herb-al vinegars. Borage isanother cucumber-fla-vored herb.

Home warranty ser-vice contracts are a $3billion a year business,but you need to know thedrawbacks as well as theadvantages.

For instance, you canexpect many warrantycompanies to do the leastexpensive repair pos-sible.

Home warranties havebecome fairly standardwith real estate sales.But while it can give abuyer peace of mind, I’veseen time and againwhere there’s been aproblem when a claimwas filed.

Terri Miller said herdaughter ran into a claimproblem when the airconditioning went out inher Reading home. “Theair conditioning fan went

out. Weturned theunit on andit didn’tturn at all,”Millersaid.

Miller’sdaughterbought ahome war-ranty when

buying the house lastyear after it had beenforeclosed upon. Shecalled the warranty com-pany and a repairmanwas sent out. “He imme-diately looked at the unitand told me it was a fanmotor. ‘We’re in luck, Ihave it on my truck. I’llgo change it out,’ hesaid,” Miller said.

Unfortunately, therepairman couldn’t sep-

arate the fan from themotor so he removedboth – with the electricitystill on. “He left the unitcompletely wide open.He left the electric panelwide open. When I askedhim if that was safe hetold me, ‘Yes.’ I found outlater frommy husband itwas not safe,” Millersaid.

The serviceman didn’treturn for two days.Then, Miller said, “Whenhe rewired it, rather thanturning the motor itselfanother quarter inch sohe could run the electricthrough the conduit inthere, which would bethe appropriate thing todo, he chose to put thewires above the unit andhe has them zip-tied.”

Miller sent a picture

of the job to the homewarranty company and itagreed to send out a dif-ferent company to prop-erly wire the air condi-tioner.

“The air conditionerdoes work. It is coolingthe house. The problemis the wiring, the waythey installed the wiring.It’s not safe,” Miller said.

A big thing to remem-ber with home warrantycompanies is you can’tpick the repair compa-

nies they send to yourhome. Sometimes you’llget a good, well qualifiedrepairman, other timesyou won’t.

Check the warranty tosee exactly what it doesand does not cover. Onewoman told me althoughthe warranty companygave her a new air condi-tioner, she ended up pay-ing the serviceman

$1,500 for labor.These warranties

generally cost about $400a year and have a $100deductible for each re-pair.

THANKS TO TERRENCE HUGE

Seniors living at Car-riage Court of Kenwoodwere entertained by thecast from CincinnatiChristian CommunityTheatre’s “Joseph and theAmazing TechnicolorDreamcoat” as a part ofCCCT’s commitment topay it forward this season.

“We are making a spe-cial effort to reach out toseniors by bringing themagic of musical theatreto them,” saidGraceHart,founder and director ofCCCT. “This outreach is apart of our ‘Pay It For-ward’ campaign, an effortto share musical theatrewith those who wouldn’totherwise have the oppor-tunity,” Hart said.

‘Pay It Forward’ givesindividuals, organizationsand businesses the abilitytomake tax-deductible do-nations for tickets at a re-duced rate so children infoster care, the elderly,terminally ill and needycan enjoy the show.

“We plan to visit sever-al more retirement com-

munities before our showopens at the end of themonth. We had a great re-sponse at Carriage Courtand can see there aremanywhocouldusealittletechnicolor to brightentheirday!We’realsoexcit-ed to extend our audienceto include those who’venever experienced any-thing like this before with‘Pay It Forward,’” Hartsaid.

CCCT’s production isanoriginal resettingof theclassic Tim Rice and An-drew Lloyd Webber musi-cal. It’s a high-energy, re-tellingof theBiblical storyof Joseph and his 11broth-erswho sold him into slav-ery in Egypt. It has a fam-ily-friendly storyline,catchy music and an up-lifting message.

students process their ex-periences in Israel,strengthen their personalJewish identity and ex-plore and expand their re-lationships with the localJewish community.

The program grew outof a desire to maximizethe value of the Founda-tion’s investment in thecommunity by increasingrecipients’ engagementand thereby encouragingthem to eventually be-come the next generationof leaders and philanthro-pists.

Sam Levitt and EliseSpiegel, Israel HERE“graduates,” spoke at theIndependence Day cele-bration about their expe-riences in Israel.

Levitt lives in Syca-more Township and at-tends Sycamore HighSchool.

Spiegel lives in Madei-ra and attends Indian HillHigh School.

Levitt traveled to Isra-el on a two-month Alexan-der Muss High Schooltrip.

Hesaid, “Ihadthemostamazing experience onthis program. I really fellin love with Israel andcame to the conclusionthat I would give my lifefor the country. I gained anewfound sense of nation-alism and pride for thestate of Israel and theJewish people…I trulydiscovered how impor-tant it is for all of us to re-main strong and stay to-gether because of all thatwe have suffered and,quite possibly, will suf-fer.”

Levitt continued, “I amso happy the Foundationgave me this opportunityto travel to Israel and sograteful, because Iwill re-

member this for the restof my life. I would highlyencourage any teen totake advantage of thevery generous opportuni-tywehave inCincinnati totravel to Israel.”

Since 2000, more than1,400 Jewishyoungpeoplefrom Cincinnati havetraveled to Israel todevel-op stronger, more per-sonal connections with Is-rael and their Jewishheri-tage. Cincinnati holds thedistinction of sendingmore Jewish youth, percapita, on theseIsraelpro-gramsthananyotherJew-ish community in NorthAmerica.

“During my trip to Is-rael, I connected not onlywith my Jewish identitymore, but with my identi-ty as a whole,” said EliseSpiegel, who traveled toIsrael on the Jewish Fed-eration’sJQuest trip. “Thefact that I was even given

a chance to gomeans a lotto me, and there are nowords to thank the Foun-dation except for ‘thankyou.’”

This is thefirstyearforIsrael HERE, but, goingforward, itwillbeanongo-ing component of theFoundation’s IsraelTravelGrant Program. In orderto make sure future grantrecipients will get themost out of their trips,theywill allbeexpected tocontribute 25 hours ofcommunity service to theJewishcommunity andat-tend two pre-trip and sixpost-trip sessions.

Community Shaliach(emissary from Israel)Yair Cohen, who co-devel-oped theIsraelHEREpro-gramwithSharonSpiegel,Director of Youth IsraelExperiences at the JewishFederation, said, “This isjust as important as thetrip to Israel itself. It is a

way for participants to in-vest the passion and un-derstanding they gainedin Israel back into theirown community. It’s amust-have component ofany travel to Israel.”

“The Israel HERE ini-tiative is a supremely im-portant program,” saidDr. Gary P. Zola, execu-tive director of The JacobMarcus Rader Center ofthe American Jewish Ar-chives,who led the partic-ipants on a bus tour ofJewish Cincinnati in De-cember.

“Typically, AmericanJews send their youngpeople to Israel wheretheir Jewish identity isstrengthened. Yet onceback in the U.S., there islittle or no follow up.

Israel HERE strives tobuildontheJewishexcite-ment that was sparked inIsrael, and this is precise-ly what needs to be done.
