Anyone visiting area petstores on weekends has seenthem.

They are the homeless petswith big expressive eyes, ormaybe an aloof demeanor, look-ing for their forever home.

As potential adopters pass-by, some pausing to share affec-tion, volunteers stand at theready to share all they know.

The cages of potential petsare provided by area rescues,including Clermont Pets Alive!,a program of Pet Alliance, a501(c)(3) (non-profit) organiza-tion run exclusively by volun-teers. Clermont Pets Alive! waslaunched in May 2012. Pet Alli-ance was founded in 2006. Bothare under the leadership oftheir founder, Clermont Countyresident Anita Barron. Her fo-cus is to push for no-kill animalshelters and to find homes forhomeless animals.

It’s hard work. For Barronand her dedicated volunteers,rescuing animals and findingthem their forever homes is apassion.

One such volunteer is BillO’Neal, a Maine resident wholives in New Richmond with hiswife and two daughters. For thepast two years O’Neal, an editor

of science textbooks, has volun-teered with Clermont PetsAlive! Much of his volunteertime is spent at the Grant Ca-reer Center in Bethel tending tothe cats in cages there. He lav-ishes attention on the cats andkittens and works to socializethem.

On Saturdays, O’Neal is thehuman face of Clermont PetsAlive! as he spends the day atPetSmart at Eastgate tending toa table lined with cages and catsof varying ages and sizes. Theultimate goal is for the cats tomake a connection with a poten-

tial adopter. Such a con-nection was made on a re-cent Saturday whenO’Neal worked with An-drea Stover of Batavia tocomplete her adoption pa-perwork.

Stover had seen littermates Nadia and Nadineon Clermont Pets Alive!social media. She initiallyplanned to get a youngercat.

“Then I found thesetwo and wanted to keepthem together. These willbe my first (cats) by my-self. I’m excited,” shesaid.

Nancy Finn and herdaughter Lizzie, from Mil-ford, are also ClermontPets Alive! volunteers.Their specialty is fostercare. Finn calls herdaughter the “cat whis-perer.” She has a gift forcalming and socializingotherwise difficult cats.

“I just chill the cat,”Lizzie Finn said. One toolshe uses for calming kit-ties is music for catsfound online. She and hermom were at a recent

adoption event at Pet-Smart looking to find aforever home for theircurrent foster.

Clermont Pets Alive! isan active rescue that spe-cializes in cats but is alsoworking to place twolarge dogs. Large breeddogs can be difficult toplace, especially if theylack training, Barron said.What the rescue reallyneeds right now is fund-ing, either through dona-tions or successful grantwriting, and volunteers.Volunteers to foster ani-mals and help work adop-tion events are vital to therescue’s continued suc-cess.

Barron’s work datesback to 2006 when shefounded Pet Alliance. Hervision was to replicatehere locally the work ofNathan Winograd. Wino-grad created the nation’sfirst - and at the time only -full-service no-kill com-munity, saving not onlydogs and cats but rabbits,hamsters, gerbils, horses,

and others. No-kill is de-fined as less than 10 per-cent of the animals beingeuthanized.

Through the efforts ofPet Alliance, spay andneuter clinics werebrought to the Cincinnatiarea via a mobile clinic.The need for the mobileclinic faded when UnitedCoalition of Animals andOhio Alleycat Resourceopened clinics here. Thenew focus turned to edu-cating the local pet com-munity about Winograd’sno-kill community. ThePet Alliance brought Wi-nograd in as a guestspeaker at a couple of con-ferences.

Barron’s efforts result-ed in a no-kill approach inthe Boone County AnimalShelter and a change inmanagement and direc-tion in the Clermont Coun-ty Animal Shelter, shesaid. While much work re-mains to be done, Barronhas accomplished a lot.

For change to happen,people need to be educat-

ed about what is happen-ing in their local animalshelters, Barron said.

“Right now, one thing Iask every communitymember who cares to do isto call their local shelterand ask for their statis-tics,” she said. Some willshare the data and somewill not. Ask about thesave rate, how many dogscome in, how many go outand how many are euthan-ized.

Currently on that Face-book page is a plea for fos-ters and adopters to helpwith 12 young friendlycats and kittens. For moreinformation about thesecats and adopting/foster-ing visit the Facebookpage, visit clermontpetsa-live.org or text/call Anitaat (513) 317-3343.

Cincinnati’s EconomicsCenter has determinedthat the new developmentwill provide 1,855 perma-nent jobs with an addition-al 1,675 related jobs asso-ciated with suppliers andservices.

This will keep workersin the area, said AndyKuchta, director of Com-munity and Economic De-velopment for ClermontCounty. Kuchta said 60percent of working resi-dents currently commuteoutside of the county.

“(This will) providemore local jobs for ourown residents,” he said.

The development isalso expected to provide afinancial benefit to thecounty.

The study by the Eco-nomics Center also indi-cated that by its 11th year,the property value ofSouth Afton CommercePark would be estimatedat about $94 million gener-ating a total of $32 millionin new property taxesover the life of the devel-opment.

The cost to buy theproperty was $4.9 millionand was funded from pro-ceeds generated by Cler-

mont County’s Ivy Pointedevelopment.

The purchase of thecommerce park was coor-dinated by the ClermontCounty Community Im-provement Corp.

At this stage, Kuchtasaid road and infrastruc-ture planning is beingconducted.

Although potential ten-ants have yet to be an-nounced, Kuchta said anumber of existing busi-nesses in Clermont Coun-ty have been approached.

Construction on thefirst phase of roads is ex-pected to begin in the fall.

Entering its 10th year,Honor Flight Tri-State isaccepting applicationsfrom Veterans who are in-terested in a special trip toWashington, D.C.

More than 2,500 veter-ans from the Tristate areahave taken the trip

The first Honor Flightof 2016 lifts off from theCincinnati/Northern Ken-tucky International Air-port Tuesday, April 19.Subsequent flights arescheduled for May 17,Aug. 30, Sept. 20 and Oct.25. There will be no wom-ens’ only flight this year.Honor Flights are openfor men and women whoserved in the armed

forces, who are 65 and old-er and served either state-side or overseas, SymmesTownship resident andHonor Flight DirectorCheryl Popp said. Oldervets still fly first, she said.

The welcome home ral-ly is open to everyone andit’s an opportunity for thecommunity to show sup-port and appreciation forthe Veterans. Popp saidthe veterans return fromtheir trip around 10:15p.m. and the rally is heldin the meet and greet areaof the terminal. Books andHonor Flight memorabil-ia are available for wel-come home greeters.

Speaking of books,sales of “Legacy of Cour-age” by Popp and PeterBronson have been brisk.

The book recounts the sto-ries of Honor Flight Veter-ans.

“We are very pleasedwith our reception,” Poppsaid. On April 17 Popp andBronson will receive anaward from the OHIOanaLibrary Association.They are honoring writ-ers from Hamilton Coun-ty.

Sales of the book bene-fit Honor Flight. It’s diffi-cult to tell how much mon-ey has been raised so farfrom sales, Popp said.

“We had 2,200 copiesprinted and we are downto our last 500 or so, andwe have not even had aflight yet when they wereavailable,” she said. Re-maining copies are stillavailable at Joseph Beth,

Lunken Flight Depot andBlue Marble bookstore inFort Thomas. A secondprinting is planned.

Work is also underway

for the next book. The fo-cus will be much the sameonly this one will include achapter about the first-ever all women’s Honor

Flight.“We see a whole lot of

pink in it,” she said.The itinerary for this

year’s Honor Flight Veter-ans is the same as in thepast. They will visit allmonuments - Iwo Jima,World War II, Korean,Vietnam, Lincoln, Viet-nam, Air Force Memorialand changing of the guardat Arlington NationalCemetery.

The trip is free to vet-erans. The fee for guard-ians this year has not beendetermined. Applicationsfor veterans and guard-ians are available on theHonor Flight Tri-State’swebsite, www.honor-flighttristate.org. Paperapplications can be ob-tained by 513-277-9626.

The winner of theMarch 15 vote will ad-vance to the Nov. 8 gener-al election. No Democrathas filed for the four-yearterm to begin in January2017.

Following is informa-tion from email inter-views with the candi-dates, both of whom livein Miami Township:

Ed Humphrey» Age: 72» College degrees:

Bachelor’s degree in busi-ness administration andan MBA from the Univer-sity of Cincinnati.

» Occupation: Retiredsenior supervisor in mar-ket research with P&G.

» Elective political of-fices: Clermont CountyCommissioner since 2008.Miami Township trusteefrom 1990 to 2008.

What are the most im-portant issues facingClermont County?

“The No. 1 issue facingClermont County is creat-ing and retaining qualityjobs. This benefits all ofour residents and helps tospurn economic develop-ment. I have been work-ing to help local business-es expand and find oppor-tunities to encouragethem to keep their opera-tions here when theygrow. I am also helping to

raise awareness of themany opportunities Cler-mont County offers forbusinesses looking to re-locate here.

“I am also helping lo-cally to fight the ongoingheroin epidemic facingour country by workingwith the Clermont CountyOpiate Task Force to ad-dress this national prob-lem. Locally, this epidem-ic is a drain on importantsafety service and healthresources available toresidents.

“I have also been work-ing to help manage and ad-dress various challengesrelated to the criminaljustice system in thecounty.”

Why are you the bestcandidate for the job?

“I believe I am bestsuited for this position as Ibring many years of busi-ness and governmentalexperience to the office. Ihave worked tirelessly tobring creative solutionsand work with other na-tional, state and local lead-ers in order to addressproblems facing our coun-ty.

“I hope to be able tocontinue to serve as com-missioner.”

You and your oppo-nent have had medicalissues. Are you healthyenough for the job?

“I was in an automobileaccident in early Decem-ber. I appreciate all thesupport I received fromso many across the coun-ty. I have been undergo-ing physical therapy aspart of my recovery.Physical therapy has beengoing extremely well. In

fact, I attended the com-missioner’s meeting onFeb. 19.

“Since that time, I havebeen catching up onemails and voice mailsand plan to resume a full-time schedule soon.”

Bachelor’s degree in gen-eral studies from the Uni-versity of Cincinnati.

» Occupation: Retiredsenior field service engi-neer and instrument spe-cialist with the EmersonElectric Co.

» Elective political of-fices: Miami Townshipprecinct committeeman.

What are the most im-portant issues facingClermont County?

“Budget. Traffic. Ille-gal drugs.

?When running any-thing, the intake of reve-nue is always important.My desire of being thetaxpayers’ commissioneris not to see taxes beingraised. My desire is al-ways that revenue comesfrom other sources thanthe taxpayers.

“Traffic is becomingmore of an issue. Inter-state 275 is a state high-way versus a county ortownship road. However,it passes through ourcounty. Each workdaymorning one can see itback up northbound to theLoveland-Madeira Roadexit. It troubles me tothink of the fuel wastedand the time loss on thisevent. Certainly a study atbest needs to be conduct-ed to determine the cause

of such and elimination ofsuch cause(s).

“Recently it has cometo my attention of the in-creasing illegal drugproblem in this county. Tohave law enforcement at-tempt to remove thesources would only createother avenues to supplythe drugs, probably at ahigher price. Thus itwould appear a combina-tion of stopping the influxof drugs, education anddetox programs in placeand, for offenders thatwill not get off the drugs,adequate adult detentionspace to keep them off thestreets (is needed).”

Why are you the bestcandidate for the job?

?My wife and I arebuilding a hangar and

home in Clermont County.Weekly, I drive the newHolland backhoe/loader –operating both buckets. Idrive my car to whereneeded.

“If elected, I will con-tinue the methods thatmade me successful as anengineer. I receive noticeof units sold and write athank you letter to the labmanager. While unpack-ing the unit, inspect forany shipping issues -missing or damagedparts, manual on 2-7 hassupplies – so we have bothupon my arrival, however,retraining is not coveredunder the warranty. WhenI arrive, if the instrumentwas still in receiving – Ihad a leg to stand on. I sug-gested to the manager,

that I would stay late thesecond day to ensure theoperators were welltrained. This made a posi-tive bond with the ac-count.

“Looking ahead on theweekly agenda and mak-ing field visits to town-ships or parcels of landcoming before the com-missioners, the owner(s)feels it was above boardif, no is the answer in thatone commissioner at leastcame to the actual site.

“I feel that my oppo-nent does not have thehealth or energy to seesuch matters to closure.”

Archbishop McNicho-las High School graduateJim Serger reflects on hisown childhood experienc-es for his most recent

book,“Next inLinePlease.”

Whilegrowing upin Ander-son Town-ship’s Sum-mit Es-tates, he

and his family frequentedthe little strip plaza at thecorner of Clough Pike andEight Mile Road. To him,that strip plaza prettymuch had all the necessi-ties the families in thearea needed. One placethat was especially closeto his heart was SummitMeats.

The owner, Bob Cap-pel, was a role model forSerger, who worked nextdoor at The ConvenientFood Mart from age 16 toaround 21. Serger saidthat Cappel always of-fered a warm greeting toall he met. He was neverlate for work. He nevercalled in sick.

“So Bob helped to influ-ence young men and wom-en,” he said. He taught afew classes at schools, hewas a self-starter.

Even when Sergerworked for Home CityIce, he found time to stopby Summit Meats for asandwich and talk withCappel. This was the littleshop that significantly in-fluenced Serger and hisideas about customer ser-vice.

It is these ideas and ex-periences from SummitMeats on which Sergerbased his third book.

For Cappel, it’s all sortof a humbling surprise.Serger first approachedhim about one year agowith the idea for this bookabout a corner butchershop that influenced peo-ple and their lives.

“I thought I would goalong with it,” he said add-ing that he thought theidea would soon fade. Itdidn’t. After a year of reg-ular Wednesday talkswith Serger, Cappel wasreceiving manuscriptsfor review.

“I thought, ‘oh mygoodness, who wouldhave thought somebodywould do something likethis.’ I’m flattered. At thesame time, I’m shocked,”he said.

Cappel said that he andhis friend, Dan Hornsche-meier, opened SummitMeats when they werejust 27. Cappel’s now 67.Both had worked inMount Washington atHornschemeier Grocery(owned by Dan’s father) intheir teens. Dan Horn-schemeier went off to themilitary and then to col-lege, Cappel remained atthe grocery store manag-ing it and learning thebusiness. When Horn-schemeier returned, thefriends opened SummitMeats. After a few years,Cappel purchased Horn-schemeier’s share of thebusiness. He owned theshop for 25 years.

Today, Cappel is semi-retired. He lives in Ken-wood after having lived inNew Richmond andPierce Township formany years. To keep busy,he works at the FreshThyme store in Kenwood.

The name of Serger’s

book, “Next in LinePlease” is a throwback toa day before butchershops and delicatessenshad customers pull a num-ber for service. Theywould simply call out forthe next customer.

When preparing towrite his book about cus-tomer service, Sergersaid he thought about allthe people he knew overthe years and Cappel im-mediately came to mind.Now about the age Cappel

was when they first met,Serger said he recognizesthat it’s now his time tohelp influence a genera-tion.

This book is about thepositive influence youngmen and women need intheir lives, he said.

“We need to be encour-aged, we need to bepushed, we need to followothers lead and in returnwe lead others down theirpath or journey, positive-ly,” Serger said. “This

book is about what makesa success, what makes ahappy, fulfilling careerand more over aboutadults who want us to dowell, and will allow us toface our fears and over-come our failures toachieve more. “

Like Serger, Hornsche-meier and Cappel weregraduates of McNicholas.Today Serger, also a Uni-versity of Cincinnatigraduate, lives in Carmel,Indiana, with his wife,Tarla, and daughter. He isan operations manager inthe aviation industry. Hisfirst book was “Go theDistance.” His secondbook was “2,000 Miles onWisdom.”

One of my most memorable cateringevents was a Jewish Seder supper. Now Iwill tell you this was years ago, and I knewvery little about the Seder supper cele-brated on Passover.

Well, about that time, our Catholicchurch held a Seder supper and I helpedwith the food. One of the items we servedat our church dinner was matzo bread/crackers that we purchased.

During the Seder meal that I catered, Iremember vividly the Seder plate with thecrisp matzo that the hostess had made her-self, in the center of the plate, surrounded by othermeaningful foods, all of which were important tothe celebration.

Recently, one of my listeners to my Sonrisemorning show program on Sacred Heart radiowanted to make homemade matzo for a Passovercelebration for her family. I had a recipe tuckedaway in my files so last night I decided to make it.

The history behind matzo is that it shouldbe made, from start to finish, in 18 minutessince that’s the time frame believed to keepthe dough from starting to ferment or leavenfrom the moisture. It honors the quick de-parting of the Israelites from Egypt. Theyhad to make bread in haste so unleavenedbread took less time, and that’s what theymade.

Did I finish it in 18 minutes? No, I dawdledaround but the recipe was super easy andtasty. When I pulled it out of the oven I askedmy husband, Frank, if he would taste a piece.

“Only if you put butter on it,” he said. So much forPassover traditions!

Easy homemade crisp matzo

This reminds me of the pita chips you buy. This is avery crisp cracker that is good for dipping or just breakingapart and eating. If you’d like to see step-by-step photos ofthe process, check out my abouteating.com site. This is afun recipe for the little ones to help with.

matzo

Preheat oven to 475. Spray cookie sheets.Mix the flour, water, salt and olive oil. Knead briefly

on a floured surface until the dough comes together into asmooth ball, a few minutes. You’ll need to add a bit of flouruntil it’s no longer sticky. Bless the dough!

With your hands, roll into log and then cut into egg-sized pieces. Roll each piece out as thin as you can. Whenyou think it’s thin enough, keep rolling! Transfer to cookiesheet and prick all over to prevent puffing in the oven.

You can put the breads close together. I brushed somewith olive oil. Bake until crisp and golden brown in spots,5-7 minutes or so. After they came out of the oven, Ibrushed them again with olive oil.

Mini Easter egg nests like Russell Stovercandy

I love these nests since they can be made with differ-ent kinds of high quality chocolate. Desiccated coconut isquite dry and fine, with lots less moisture than regular. Isuppose you could use regular unsweetened flaked coco-nut, but I would chop it up a bit. Adapted slightly fromSerious Eats.

8 oz. finely chopped chocolate - your choice of milk,semisweet or white

1-1/3 cups unsweetened desiccated coconutDash green food coloring if you like for the white

chocolateTiny jellybeans or tiny pastel chocolate eggs

Melt half the chocolate very slowly. Stir in rest ofchocolate until smooth. Stir in food coloring if using. Stir incoconut and drop tablespoons of mixture onto sprayedcookie sheet keeping shape as rounded as you can. Makesmall indentation in center and put in 3 candies. Chill untilset.

A publication of

February is a month wherewe celebrate love and our im-portant relationships, but let’snot forget where the founda-tion of a healthy relationshipshould start: at home with ourown families.

A new study from SearchInstitute, “Don’t Forget theFamilies,” highlights the pow-er of family relationships as acritical, but often neglected,factor in the development ofcharacter strengths in chil-dren.

This study of 1,085 par-enting adults of 3- to 13-year-olds from across the UnitedStates found that the quality ofparent-child relationships is 10times more powerful than

demographics(race, ethnic-ity, familycomposition,and familyincome) inpredictingwhether chil-dren developthe criticalcharacterstrengths theyneed for suc-

cess in school and life. Thesestrengths include being moti-vated to learn, being respon-sible and caring for others.

The Search Institute identi-fied five essential actions keyto establishing what they calldevelopmental relationships,

the close connections throughwhich young people developcharacter strengths. They are:1. Express care: Show that youlike me and want the best forme. 2. Challenge growth: Insistthat I try to continuously im-prove. 3. Provide support: Helpme complete tasks and achievegoals. 4. Share power: Hear myvoice and let me share in mak-ing decisions. 5. Expand possi-bility: Expand my horizons andconnect me to opportunities.

The report suggests that toomany family engagement ef-forts are about getting familiesto support what an institutiondoes, like a school or youthprogram, and challenges theseinstitutions to rethink and

reinvest in family engagementas a critical strategy for work-ing together for children’ssuccess.

The developmental relation-ships framework offers specif-ic, everyday ways families caninteract with, care for, andinvest in their relationshipstogether. You can find theseideas and other resources atthe Search Institute website:http://bit.ly/1Lpd5If.

“There is a rich but perhapsuntapped reservoir of relation-al power across the economicand cultural spectrum in theUnited States,” the report con-cludes. “With intentionality, ithas even more potential toaddress the challenges that

young people face while alsonurturing in them key charac-ter strengths that are founda-tional for success in life.”

March 2 questionA bill in the Ohio legisla-

ture would require privateschools to publish someinformation on their web-sites, including enrollmentand financial data. Otherinformation would have tobe accessible to parents ofenrolled students. Is this agood idea?

“While transparencyshould be the rule for pub-lic schools or any institu-tion receiving tax money, Idon’t think that level oftransparency should applyto private schools.

“Any parent of a studentattending a private schoolshould have open access toinformation. If the parentisn’t satisfied with the levelof disclosure they have theoption of protest by with-drawing their student andsending them to anotherprivate school.

“As long as the privateschool isn’t receiving anypublic tax money there isno reason for any informa-tion on that school, otherthan what they deem need-ed to attract students, to beavailable to the public.”

C.S.

Feb. 24 questionShould the U.S. Senate

hold confirmation hearings ifPresident Obama nominatesa successor to Supreme CourtJustice Antonin Scalia?

“I went back and forthon this question before itwas ever put forth in thisnewspaper. One mightthink there would be hope

for replacement of JusticeScalia with a similar devo-tee of the law and the Con-stitution since the Repub-licans have control of theSenate. However, no matterwho Barack Obama nomi-nates and claims to be anon-partisan, that wouldn’tnecessarily be so. Obamaexpects everyone to accepthis word as spoken be-cause, as he has noted be-fore, “he is the president”and he can do what hewants and expect compli-ance. He has the majorityof the media touting what-ever he says over and over,even challenging anyonewho dares to say otherwise.Who in their right mindwould have ever imaginedthat America would be socontrolled by the left-winged media; and so whatwe have got is over sevenyears of what one man’sideology and anti-Constitu-tional behavior, supportedby an aggressive innercircle, has done to ourcountry.

“In the past, both JoeBiden and Barack Obamahave protested againstconfirmation hearingsduring the countdown to alame-duck presidency.Now, as is usual for theDemocrats, they are pro-testing in the opposite di-rection because to do other-wise might not work out intheir favor. Why? Because,if hearings were to goforth, they believe theywould be able to manip-ulate and coerce enoughRepublicans (alas, thosewho are more interested inkeeping their posts thanthey are for looking afterthe interests of the Amer-ican people) into giving into them for confirmation oftheir chosen individual;someone who may well lookfairly appropriate enoughon the surface (think JohnRoberts,) so that the Rhinosmight feel easier abouttheir compliance. WhatAmerica needs is to get thepolitics out of the judicial!

If a conservative is notvoted in to be the nextpresident, the question of abi-partisan nominee wouldbe mute anyway. Americawould continue in the direc-tion that Obama has takenit, vulnerable on the worldstage and within its ownborders as well as furthereconomic despair and ero-sion of the liberties thatmade American great.Therefore, I would not evenentertain the idea of hear-ings for a replacementjustice to the SupremeCourt until next year.”

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONWill Cincinnati’s new pro-fessional soccer club, FCCincinnati, which opens itsseason later this month, besuccessful? Doyou plan toattend any games? Why orwhy not?

Every week we ask readers aquestion they can reply to viaemail. Send your answers tormaloney@ communitypress.comwith Ch@troom in the subjectline.

Sooner or later, every communi-ty has to consider when, how andwhether to upgrade or even replaceschools and equipment that serve

their children. It’snever an easy deci-sion, but it’s neces-sary to keep upwith the demandsof new technology,accessibility, safe-ty, growing pop-ulations, andchanges in educa-tion.

Studies showthat there’s a direct

link between the physical charac-teristics of a school building andstudents’ educational results.Thanks to the support of their com-munities, many of the school dis-tricts in our region have been ableto provide school facilities thatencourage positive results.

At career-technical schools likeGreat Oaks, we must not only cre-ate a positive environment, wemust have classrooms and labs thatgive students real-world experi-ences. That means making surethat culinary students have a com-mercial kitchen in which to learn;that health, dental and surgicaltechnologies programs have labsthat look, feel and work like med-ical facilities; that the sustainableurban agriculture students have agreenhouse, and so on.

A proper learning environmentalso means the right equipment:Aviation students have airplanes towork on, heavy industrial dieselstudents have trucks, and computer

service and digital arts studentshave up-to-date technology.

Great Oaks students also havethe benefit of a supportive commu-nity. Nearly $500,000 in TrimbleNavigation GPS hardware andsoftware was recently donated sothat our heavy equipment studentscan become trained and certified insatellite technology that’s beingused in real-world constructionlayout. We’ve also been able toenhance labs and update campuseswithin our current tax levy, and aStraight A grant has enabled us tobuild a state-of-the-art robotics andadvanced manufacturing lab thatwill be used by future engineers,area companies, and local workerswho need to upgrade their skills.

The surgical equipment, com-puterized manufacturing machines,3D printers, horses and other ani-mals, power tools, kitchens, con-struction equipment, cosmetologystations, veterinary operatingsuites, welding labs, automotivepaint booths, and other facilitiesand equipment at Great Oaks givehigh school and adult students theexperience they need to be success-ful in their profession.

You have provided those forstudents in southwest Ohio, andwe’re grateful. I invite you to visitDiamond Oaks, Laurel Oaks, LiveOaks or Scarlet Oaks to see yourcommunity’s public career-tech-nical school.

It’s interesting when thebook of Revelation beginstalking about future things, thevery first thing it focuses on isthe throne room and the heav-enly Father.

Revelation 4:1-2, “After thisI looked, and behold, a doorwas opened in heaven: and thefirst voice which I heard wasas it were of a trumpet talkingwith me; which said, come uphither, and I will show theethings which must be hereaf-ter. And immediately I was inthe spirit: and behold, a thronewas set in heaven, and One saton the throne.”

Jesus tells John “…whatmust take place hereafter…”

but, instead ofthe horrendouspictures ofdestruction,famine andpestilence thatpeople oftenassociate withRevelation, wefind ourselvesin God’s throneroom witness-

ing a spectacular heavenlyworship service. It is filledwith strange sights, sounds,lightning and thunder, withrumblings in the distance;beautiful colors and unusualcreatures.

Why is the first thing Jesus

It must be said that no onereally knows what this mark isas God has not revealed it. It isnot for us to know. Folks, theonly ones who will be deceivedare those who love not thetruth, and do not believe inJesus Christ, as it says in 2Thessalonians 2:10-12. This iswhy the vision starts in thethrone room. This then is themessage: that the only surepower that will enable us toface the fears and anxieties ofthis world is to focus on theFather and upon His throne, onHis glory, His promises.

Ben Hurst is the pastor atNorthside Baptist Church inBethel.

Unfortunately, propheticteachers have gotten people soscared of the prophecy aboutthe mark of the beast which isdescribed in Revelation, thatfaithful church goers areafraid of anything that re-sembles the mark of the beast.I understand how they feel. Wefight any attempt by anyone,for fear that “the mark of thebeast” might be placed upon usunawares. However, the wayAlmighty God describes themark of the beast, it is obviousChristians won’t be marked byit one day and suddenly discov-er they’ve been hood winked.No, No, No! So I realized wedon’t have to worry.

would take John to be a churchservice? Why visit this beauti-ful but seemingly irrelevantceremony? Why not just getright down to the nitty grittyand tell us all about the conflictbetween the forces of good andevil? But instead we find our-selves being led into God’sthrone room, the worshiproom. Why start here? We haveto realize when we read Reve-lation, it’s possible to focus onthe wrong things. From pas-tors to TV Evangelists, we allseem to get caught up lookingat the evil that is to come re-garding Revelation. I’vecaught myself doing the samething.

When praises go up blessings come down

UNION TWP. - For thesecond time in threeyears, the Glen Este HighSchool girls bowling teamtook their purple pin pow-er to the Division I statebowling tournament atWayne Webb’s ColumbusBowl.

They did so by bashingthe 10 white targets at Bea-ver-Vu in Beavercreekwell enough for a sixth-place finish, led by juniorCourtney Chaffin with athree-game series of 643to finish third overall. Ju-nior Drew Coulter came inat 587.

Throughout the season,Chaffin has been the mostconsistent, but othershave led the way like Coul-ter, sophomore DanielleCooper, freshman TaylorNeal and junior BeccaRainwater. All are top 10bowlers in the EasternCincinnati Conference.

Chaffin was the league-leader with a 199 averageand a high game of 265.Cooper, Coulter and Nealmade up four of the ECCtop five with the other be-ing Loveland state qualifi-er Taylar Hayden. Chaffinand Coulter are captains.

While Glen Este hasbeen to Columbus severaltimes under previouscoach Kathy Demarko, itmarks a first for Kevin

Briggs as the head coach.“It’s been a long time in

coming, but this was ourmission,” Briggs said. “Ittakes all 18 matches thatwe had, plus all of the tour-naments to get here.”

At the 48-lane state ven-ue March 5, the Lady Tro-jans finished 10th amongthe Division I schools.Chaffin finished eighthoverall with a 640 series.Coulter tied for 34th with a569 and Cooper tied for63rd with a 504.

In addition to the topfive Lady Trojans, theGlen Este coach said ju-nior Casey Richardsonmade a late run. Given anopportunity at the districttournament, Richardsonrolled a 230 and 180. Atmany schools, some of thegirls would be the top bow-ler. At Glen Este, it’s atough lineup to crack.

Freshman Neal wasable to contribute rightaway, giving the teamneeded depth to advance.Neal averaged 177.8 with ahigh game of 246.

The scary thing forECC opponents and othersis all of the girls return.

“I have zero seniors,”Briggs said. “Courtney(Chaffin) and Drew (Coul-ter) were on our squad twoyears ago (as freshmen)when we took our team tostate. This isn’t their firstrodeo of being there andbeing in the spotlight and

knowing what it’s allabout.”

In what became hisfinal match, down 3-2,Davis took a shot afterhe had been playingdefense most of thematch.

The shot wascountered by Sorboro,who pinned Davis inthe second period.

“He wrestled aboutas well as he couldhave,” coach BrandonDean said. “He gave iteverything.”

The Wildcats wres-tling program took abig lead forward,something Deanhopes will continue.

Applications receivedby Friday, March 18, will

be considered for fundingthis fiscal year.

EQIP is a voluntaryconservation programthat supports agricultureand environmental quali-ty as compatible goals.Through EQIP, agricul-tural producers may re-ceive financial and tech-nical help with structuraland management conser-vation practices on agri-

cultural land, such as cov-er crops, conservationtillage, rotational grazing,winter feeding areas andmore.

Lori Lenhart, theNRCS conservationist forBrown and Clermontcounties, said, “We enjoyworking with local farm-ers to develop plans thatbest fit their operationand goals, while also pro-

tecting our soil and im-proving the quality of ourstreams and lakes. The fi-nancial assistance avail-able through EQIP pays apart of the cost of tryingnew practices, which maybe just what’s needed tomake trying somethingnew worthwhile."

The switch to Day-light Savings Time Sun-day, March 13, caps theend of this year’s SleepAwareness Week ob-servance, which runsMarch 6-13. This is anideal time to note the im-portance of good night’ssleep and take on boardsuggestions for gettingone.

A recent report fromthe Centers for DiseaseControl and preventionfound that about one-third of adults in theUnited States appear tobe getting insufficientsleep. Residents of Ohio,Kentucky and Indianawere among those whoreported having thepoorest sleep.

Good quality sleep(seven to nine hours anight) plays a key role instaying healthy whilechronic poor sleep (lessthan six hours) can leadto variety of health prob-lems, including:

» heart issues, such asheart disease, heart at-

tack, heart failure and ir-regular heartbeat;

» high blood pressure; » dangerous daytime

fatigue and sleepiness –a leading cause of car ac-cidents, which, researchshows, increase in theweek following ourspring forward;

» poor memory andimpaired ability to learn;

» weight gain;» stroke;» diabetes;» depression and

mental distress.Mercy Health’s sleep

experts recommend thefollowing tips for gettinga good night’s sleep:

1. Maintain a regularsleep/wake schedule,even on the weekends. Afixed timetable helpsyour body regulate itssleep pattern and get themost out of the hours yousleep. Long naps can dra-matically affect thequality of your nighttimesleep. If you have to takea nap, try limiting it to 15-20 minutes in the late

morning or early after-noon.

2. Establish a regular,relaxing bedtime ritualprior to bedtime. Makethe bedroom an invitingplace to sleep: reduceambient light, find acomfortable temper-ature (not too hot orcold), keep noises to aminimum, etc.

3. Reduce your“screen” time at nightand reduce your expo-sure within an hour ofbed. Artificial light fromTVs, laptops, computers,tables and smartphonesmake the brain think it isdaytime and can make itharder to fall asleep atnight.

4. Exercise regularly.Even moderate exercisecan help you sleep better.Set a goal for 30 minutesof moderate exercise ev-ery day. However, youwant to make sure youfinish at least four hoursbefore bedtime. Exer-cise raises body temper-ature, which interferes

with falling asleep.5. Watch what you

drink and eat before bed-time. Avoid caffeine af-ter 3 p.m. and if you arehungry, eat smallsnacks, not large mealswithin two hours of bed-time.

While alcohol mighthelp you feel sleepy inthe short term, it ulti-mately ruins your sleepduring the second half ofthe night by lesseningthe overall quality ofsleep through reduceddeep stages of sleep,leaving you feeling lessrefreshed when thealarm goes off.

6. Prepare for Day-light Savings Time by go-ing to bed earlier three tofive nights before thetime change to better ac-climate to Daylight Sav-ings Time on Mondaymorning.

7. Know that yourbody will adjust but thatit might take few days tofeel 100 percent back tonormal.

Howdy folks,I am writing about the

Senior Services programthis time. I have been aboard member for sever-al years. It is one of thebest services folks canhave. My mother gotmeals-on-wheels forseveral years. My broth-ers Herb and Frank andmyself paid for this ser-vice. If unable to pay, aperson can still get themeals. With this servicea person can stay in theirhome and have someoneto see them each daywhen they deliver themeal. This is importantso vote for the levy, yourtaxes will not raise. Thisis a renewal levy, thefirst levy was passed inNovember 1982 so itmust be renewed everyfive years. Please voteyes for Senior ServicesRenewal Levy.

This morning I heardan owl holler. This istheir mating season, itwon’t be long untilspring is here. This is thetime of year for babysquirrels and rabbits. Ifyou are cleaning up youryard or garden wherethere is some tall grassbe careful, the motherrabbit will dig a hole andline it with her hair forher babies. She will cov-er the hole with grassthen come back afterdark to feed the babies. Ihave been cleaning someplaces and uncoveredthe babies, just coverthem back up and don’ttouch them.

The birds will be look-ing for bird houses, holesin trees or any place theycan build a nest. Thebarn swallows will build

a nest in abarn orany build-ing theycan.Spring forme is awonderfultime of theyear. Ev-erything iscoming to

life, it is the time to startgardening now. I havepeas planted in cups thatare about 10 inches tall. Ialso have lettuce, twotomato plants, and sever-al kinds of flowers plant-ed in the house. I neededto get something grow-ing! I will be putting thewalls of water in thegarden to warm theground up. Then I willput the tomato plants inthem April 1. I have usedthem for several yearsand they work. One yearthe weather turned cold.The walls of water werefrozen but the tomatoplant was pretty andgreen no damage.

The folks that havegreen houses are start-ing to get ready forspring, the Grants Farmhave three places, one onstate Route 131, one inMilford, and the otherone at the farm on Buck-town Road.

There is anothergreenhouse on TollgateRoad out of Williams-burg, the Ellis Farm. Hehas all kinds of plants,herbs, mulch and otherkinds of plants and flow-ers. His telephone num-ber is 724-3930.

Now something tobrag about, the Bethelgirls basketball teamwon the district tourna-

ment, first time this hashappened in school histo-ry. Congratulations la-dies and coaches, thiswas wonderful!

Was talking to Mike atthe Boars Head BaitShop in Afton. He saidthe East Fork Lake was alittle murky with the rainand wind. The temper-ature was in the 40s, butthe fishermen are catch-ing some fish. He saidfolks that are fishingfarm ponds are doinggood, lots of nice blue-gills. These folks havegot some fine eating. Asfor me, the crappie andbluegills are some of thebest eating. Now I knowthere will be some folksthat this is not the casefor, so eat whatever yourchoice is and enjoy them.

Mike said the coyotesin Brown County aregetting to be a problemso there were 150 teamsof four people teams.They started at noon onSaturday to noon on Sun-day hunting for thecoyotes. It was reportedthere were 45 or 46killed. If you have a cator small dog, the coyoteswould kill and eat them.We have had two catsthat the coyotes got. I tryto keep Chester close tothe house, but he has amind of his own.

Start your week bygoing to the house ofworship of your choiceand praising the goodLord. God bless all...More later
