GOSHEN TWP. — The trusteesNov.13enteredanexecutive ses-sion to discuss contract negotia-tions with the International As-sociation of Fire Fighters.

The recent failure of a five-year, 3.25-mill safety levy willhave an impact on final negotia-tions, said Fire Chief Steve Pe-gram.

“The events of last Tuesdaykind of changed some of the pri-orities for both parties,” he said.

Trustee Ray Autenrieb saidno action was taken during theexecutive session.

“There were no decisionsmade,” he said. “It’s just somethings that were discussed.”

Pegram said due to the levy’s

failure, reduc-tionswill bemadeto staff and ser-vices provided bythe township’sfire department.

“Those itemswill be negotiat-ed,” he said. “Ob-viously, when

you’re looking at a shortfall ofover $350,000 just in the fire andEMS budget, it’s going to have toaffect personnel, and personnelaffects the delivery of ser-vices.”

He said he hopes to reach anagreement within the next twoweeks.

“I can’t thank the firefightersunion enough for their coopera-tion and truly being partners inthis process,” Pegram said.

GOSHEN TWP. — Propertyowners on Ohio 28 soon may bereceiving letters notifying themthat their parking lots must beblacktopped by March 31.

The notifications were pre-pared at least partially in re-sponse to a concern raised bybusinessownerJackCaryduringa trustees’ meeting Aug. 14. In

2009, he paved the lot for MotorKing Auto Finance Company,1601 Ohio 28, after being told hewould lose his permit if he didnot.

Cary at multiple trustees’meetings has asserted that he be-lieves the zoningregulation isbe-ing enforced selectively becausehehas seenmanyother business-es onOhio 28without blacktop ontheir lots.

He said he has voiced his con-

cern at zoning commissionmeet-ings, only to be redirected to thetrustees.

“At the zoning meeting, no-body could give me any an-swers,” he said.

While the trustees have triedto address the issue by ensuringthe code’s enforcement is for ev-eryone, Cary’s concerns haveraised questions about the regu-lation’s validity.

Records indicate an amend-

ment was proposed and ap-proved for the regulation in 2009.However, no meeting minutescan be found for a public hearingconductedby thezoningcommis-sion or the trustees, said Admin-istrativeAssistant TeriDonahoe.

“That doesn’t mean you don’thave them, just that you can’tfind them,” said JimConstable ofFayetteville. “So I’m asking thetrustees before you try to en-force some zoning issues that

you make sure you do it proper-ly.”

TrusteeRayAutenrieb saidheand township Administrator RaySnyder will look into the legalityof the zoning amendment.

Donahoe said the letters ad-dressed to Ohio 28 property own-ers temporarily are being held.She said meeting minutes existfor the public hearings, andtownship officials are in theprocess of tracking them down.

BATAVIA — The Cler-mont County commission-ers created the county’sPort Authority in Augustwith the mission of foster-ingeconomicdevelopment.

Commissioners andmembers of the port au-thority board Nov. 13 metwith representatives of thePort Of Cincinnati Devel-opment Authority to learnhow the larger and olderagency operates.

“We’re trying to learnwhat we can and can’t do,”said County CommissionerDavid Uible.

Laura Brunner, presi-

dent andCEOof theCincin-nati port authority, said allport authorities operate

differently.“There

are vast dif-ferences inthe wayport au-thoritiesrun,” shesaid.

SusanThomas,

vice president of public fi-nance for the Cincinnatiport authority, said theagency has been involvedin financingmajor projectsin Cincinnati.

She said the port author-ity issued bonds for con-

struction of the GreatAmerican Tower at QueenCity Square, the tallestbuilding in Cincinnati.

Thomas said theport au-thority also has been heavi-ly involved in “brownfield”projects, which involve re-claiming underused orcompromised industrialand commercial land andrestoring it to productiveuse.

She told the ClermontCounty group port author-ity officials are “a wonder-fully cooperative group.”

“Don’t be hesitant toreach out to us,” Thomassaid.

Melissa Johnson, direc-torof transportationand lo-

gistics for the Cincinnatiport authority, said she hasbeen working with theNorthern Kentucky portauthority on a regionalstudy of cargo markets.

“Transportation doesn’tfit into boundaries, it is re-gional,” Brunner said.

Paula Boggs Meuthing,vice president of real es-tate reutilization for the

Cincinnati port authority,said the agency is involvedin a land bank project inwhich vacant and aban-doned properties are ac-quired by the port author-ity and put back into pro-ductive use.

Andy Kuchta, executivedirector of the ClermontCounty port authority, saidthe agency was created in

response to the need for fi-nancing for a specific pro-ject. The project was a lux-ury apartment complex inUnion Township.

“We’re now looking atwhat the port authority cando in the future,” he said.

“We would like to workwith you as much as wecan,” Kuchta told the Cin-cinnati officials.

Coming off a 3-17 season, theClermont Northeastern LadyRockets and coach Jason Kreim-er return eight girls from a sea-son ago.

Leading the charge is first-team All-Southern Buckeye Con-ferenceplayerCarlyAselageandsecond-teamer Jessica Kirby.Joining them will be fellow sen-iors Chelsae Osborn and JoEllenSchmidt.

“We gained some experiencelast year and we are going to tryto build on that this year,”Kreim-er said.

Sophomore Rachel Ward willstart at point guard for the LadyRockets after coming up from ju-nior varsity at the end of last sea-son.

“We expect for her to reallystep up big this year,” Kreimersaid. “Shesteppedupat theendoflast season.”

Things get under way Nov. 29when they host Felicity.

Usuallywhen a coach plans onrunning four sophomores out onthe court, he most likely is deal-ing with a raw squad.

That is not the case for theGo-shen Lady Warriors and coachDave Mason.

Courtney Turner, Kayle Mil-ler, Brittany Clark and KatarinaBlumentritt will all see majorplaying time this season afterlogging significant minutes asfreshmen.

“We are going to look to out-hustlepeople, attackandhopeful-ly surprise some people,” Masonsaid.

After earning second-teamAll-Southern Buckeye Confer-ence American Division honorslast season, Becca Davidson wasgoing to be the leader for thisteam but tore her ACL over thesummer.

“She is working really hard to

get back,” Mason said. “But weare really going at it like wearen’t going to see her.”

With her loss, the Lady War-riors lost their height and someexperience, despite running outfive seniors.

“A couple of them have time(with varsity) and the othersplayed (junior varsity),” Masonsaid. “We are looking for sparkswith them but we are mainlyheavy with sophomores that weare going to look to.”

Goshen starts its season Nov.

27 at Ross.GreggFlammerand theMcNi-

cholas Lady Rockets hope suc-cess can be found in the seven re-turning players who startedgames last winter.

“We were a predominatelysophomore teamlastyear,”Flam-mer said by email. “We had 10girls see significantplaying time.I hope that translates to a suc-cessful season.”

Some sophomores expected tocontribute as juniors includeguards Hannah Taylor, CorrieSheshull and Sarah Collete.

McNick should also be strongat center, with seniors LaurenLamping and Katie Rogers set toreturn.

The Rockets open the seasonagainst Turpin Nov. 24.

As the Milford Lady Eaglesprepare for their first season inthe Eastern Cincinnati Confer-ence, they do so as a young teamwith only one returning starterfrom last season’s 15-6 squad.

Coach Kristi McKenney en-ters her second season of her sec-ond stint as the Lady Eagles’coach after coaching the teamfrom 2000-2002.

Junior Shayna Simmons ap-peared in 19 games last seasonand averaged four points andnearly five rebounds per game.

Senior Rachel Alley, sopho-moreErinBeurket and freshmanHannahWoodswill add to themixand do what they can to replacethe 24.3 points and 12.9 reboundsa game the team lost due to thegraduation of Morgan Wolcottand Kelly Yee.

“We are young and have a lotof heart,” McKenney said. “Wewill get better each time we stepon the court.”

McKenney will run out sixfreshmen and sophomores thisseason, while having just threeseniors on the roster.

Milford starts its season Nov.24 at Talawanda.

CORRYVILLE — Playing forthe first time in four years,Moeller and Colerain didn’t dis-appoint on Nov. 17 with the Cru-saders prevailing 24-21over thepreviously undefeated Cardi-nals.

Even with a comfortable 24-14 lead with 4:24 to go, Coleraindrove for a touchdown in 3:01 toget within a field goal. Knownmore for his running, AlfredRamsby completed a series ofpasses and eventually foundChrisDavis from five yards outwith 1:23 remaining.

The Cards then executed anice-looking onside kick thatTre Hudson nearly recovered,but was out of bounds.

Moeller then went to theirsteady diet of running backKeith Watkins to ice the gameand move on to the Division Istate semifinals.

“They’re No. 1 for a reason,”a Gatorade-drenched Moellercoach John Rodenberg said.“We knew they’d keep coming.I’m just proud of our guys. Weovercame a lot of adversity ear-lier in the year.”

In theend, the loadwashand-ed to Northwestern-boundKeith Watkins, who toted theloaf 32 times for 203yards andatouchdown. He ran outside, heran inside and ran with morepower than your average 180-pounder.

For the second time inthree years, the CincinnatiStatemen’s soccer teamad-vanced to the NJCAA na-tional tournament.

The Surge’s 18-6-1 sea-son came to an end with a3-0 loss toLouisburgNov.14at the national tournamentin Albany, Ga. The tradi-tionally two-year schoolusedablendofexperiencedplayers and talented new-comers to climb into the top10 of the NJCAA rankingsheading into the nationaltournament.

“We knew what it wouldtake forus toget back tona-

tionals,” head coach MikeCombs said. “We went on abig run down the stretchandwecarriedthatmomen-tum into the postseason.”

The Surge did not lose amatch in themonth ofOcto-ber. Prior to the loss on thesecond day of pool play atthe national tournament,theSurge’s last loss came inovertime on Sept. 30. Thelate-season success was aproduct of melding the tal-entsofeightreturningplay-ers with 18 first-year play-ers. Three starters re-turned from the 2011 teamthat lost a heartbreaker inthe regional final. Thisyear’s squad won the Re-gion XII title to advance to

the North Central Districtfinal. Stellar play from de-fender Austin Klueh (Love-land) and goalkeeper RyanStrunk (Anderson) helpedthe Surge advance to thedistrict championship.

“Wehadaverytight-knitgroup this year. Everybodyput the team first,” saidCombs. “We had more of apositive cohesiveness with-in our group. They justwanted toplay together andwin.”

Thatunitywashelpedbythe players’ familiaritywith one another. Manygrew up playing with oragainst each other in theGreaterCincinnati area.Onthe team were former

Greater Cincinnati highschool standouts including:Tucker Beerman of High-lands, Kyle Grothaus ofMilford, Tyler Gumbert ofAnderson, Austin Klueh ofLoveland, Ryan Strunk ofAnderson, Kyle Cobbs ofFinneytown, Francis Gyauof Winton Woods, LoganGumbert of Anderson, BenMikkelson of Colerain,Johnson Mensah of Fair-field, Kevin Nkrumah ofFairfield and Hunter Kautzof Lebanon.

Anderson grad LoganGumbert became the firstSurge player to participatein theNJCAAnational tour-nament twice. Gumbertwas also a part of the 2010

team that advanced all theway to the NJCAA nationalchampionship match.

“Ourprogram’sgoal is tobring in the top local play-ers,” Combs said. “Thatcamaraderie and experi-ence (that they have fromplaying with and againsteach other) helps.”

In addition to the localtalent, the Surge enjoyedcontributions from a quar-tet of international players.In the team’s possession-oriented system where ev-eryone touches the ball,teamwork was the key toCincinnati State’s success.

“We stumbled in the be-ginning of the season. Ittook a little time to develop

our identity,” said Combs.“Over the course of the sea-son, the players becamemore comfortable in theirroles. Itwasavery,veryfunride watching these guysdevelop.”

As a two-year institu-tion, one of the program’sgoals is to find scholarshipopportunities for Surgeplayers to continue theireducation and college soc-cer experience. In additionto gaining national expo-surefor theSurgeprogram,advancing to the nationaltournament puts a spotlighton the Surge players whoare hoping to garner the at-tention of coaches at four-year NCAA institutions.

Holding up Moeller’s14th regional trophy wasMiami Hurricane-boundoffensive lineman Alex

Gall. He is coached byDoug Rosfeld and formerMoeller head coach SteveKlonne. Klonne returnedto theMoeller fold as an as-sistant this season after arecent stint as head coachat McNicholas. Moeller’slast regional title was un-der Klonne in 1997 whenthey made the state titlegame. Their last statechampionship was also onthe Klonne watch in 1985.Now, Rodenberg has his

own hardware, with an as-sist from the old coach.

hard work has paid off. It’sjust unbelievable. We areso thankful and soblessed.”

The feeling was mutualfor Anderson, namedSouthern Buckeye Ameri-can Division Player of theYear last season.

“It’s just a great day,”she said. “It’s awesome tosee everyone’s support andeveryone here.”

After her senior seasonMiller will play for coachJeff Breeden at MTSU andlook to be part of the teamthat earns the Blue Raid-ers’ first winning seasonsince 2007.

“I’m more than excit-ed,” she said. “Exciteddoesn’t even describe it.

It’s anhonor just to playDi-vision I college softball.”

She will take the fieldfor coach Terrah Beyster,who is coming off an 18-38season. While Andersonwill have a chance to makean immediate impact withthe Rockets, all she is con-cerned about is enjoyingthe moment. “We workhard our whole lives to gethere and it’s just awe-some,” she said.

Call legislatorsHB 125 is dangerous, decep-

tive andmost importantly uncon-stitutional. Since a heartbeat canbe detected in the earliest weeksof pregnancy, often before thewoman even knows she is preg-nant, the “heartbeat” bill is tanta-mount to a total abortion ban.There are no rape or incest ex-ceptions and since the bill direct-ly contradicts Roe v. Wade, it isunconstitutional andwould likelybe in litigation for years and costthe state of Ohio money and timewe don’t have.

Why our elected officials feeltheneed tonot onlywaste the tax-payer’s time and money with abill that can never constitutional-lybe lawwhilesimultaneouslyat-tacking women’s reproductivefreedoms is beyond me. Ohioansaren’t dumb and we certainlyaren’t fiscally irresponsible. I’mdisgusted that my elected offi-cials have chosen to move for-ward with such a backwards andreckless measure.

Womenall overOhio spokeoutthis past election day and I hopethey will join me in speaking outnow against HB 125. We Ohioansdon’t want our time or moneywasted, or ourbodies legislated. Iencourage my fellow Ohioans tocontact your state senator andurge themtovote againstHB125.

Last winter, I introduced youto the “Jones family,” a typicalClermont household, only one totwo paychecks or circum-stances away from poverty’sentrapping cycle. As the “JonesFamily” searched for short-termsupplies, they were introducedto a two-decade-old, growingcollaboration of local churches,non-profits, businesses andother agencies called “WrappingClermont Together,”www.wrappingclermont.com.This annual event, coordinatedby LandmarkMinistries,www.lbcohio.com, and held atUC Clermont College,www.ucclermont.edu, is de-signed to meet Christmas needswith such items as groceries,gifts for the kids, personal careitems and two hot meals thanksto Golden Rule Catering,www.goldenrulecatering.com,and Batavia Rotary,www.batavia-rotary.org. Localstudent-musicians performedChristmas carols in the back-ground while everyone chattedas equals. Other communitypartnerships were leveraged tooffer long-term guidance such

as counseling,life coachingand financialeducation.Most impor-tantly, the“Jones Family”found empa-thetic newfriends whowould listen to,cry with and

hug themwhile essentiallyrestoring their basic humandignity.

Brandon LittleCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

During our annual VeteransDay observances, we recalledthe sacrifices made by all whoserved in our nation’s military. Ihope you will join me in offeringa special salute to veterans ofthe VietnamWar - who seldomwere welcomed home with thesame heartfelt thanks affordedthose who fought in other con-flicts.

Vietnam was different fromWorld War II and even Korea,which were largely viewed aspatriotic efforts. When veteransof combat in Vietnam returnedto the United States, few werehonored for their service. Somewere ridiculed in airports - toldby strangers that they ought tobe ashamed of themselves.

This happened despite thefact that most Vietnam eratroops were drafted into com-pulsory service. They weren’tall volunteers like today’s U.S.troops.

I was in grade school whenthe VietnamWar began, but one

of my olderbrothers wasdrafted andserved in theNavy for fouryears. At first,for visits hometo ClermontCounty, hewould travel inhis sailor’suniform. Even-

tually, he took to wearing bluejeans and a sweatshirt whiletraveling so he wouldn’t be tar-geted for insults.

Today, many of our VietnamWar veterans are united in wel-coming home the men and wom-en who have served our nationin Iraq or Afghanistan.

The Vietnam vets are deter-mined that we should neveragain fail to recognize the sacri-fices made by those who servein our military - or their fam-ilies. For example, many of thePatriot Guard Riders whom I’vemet (motorcycle enthusiasts

who escort the funeral motor-cades of fallen warriors re-turned to the United States) areVietnamWar veterans.

Some of our war fightersnever return. Others come backmentally or physically maimedfor life. We need to honor themand do everything we can forthem - now and in the future.

It was my privilege lastmonth to recognize severalAmerican warriors who madethe ultimate sacrifice for ourcountry while serving overseas.

Sometimes families contactmy office to request help ob-taining the military records andawards that their loved onesearned, but never received.While we are proud of the ser-vice these men provided duringtimes of war, it is still painful torecall the loss of loved ones.Ceremonies such as the one heldat the Clermont County Veter-ans Service Commission in Ba-tavia Oct. 24 help bring closure.

I was happy to provide long-

overdue recognition to PrivateFirst Class William Gumbert Jr.,a resident of Ohio Township whoserved in the Army during theVietnamWar.

The oldest of 10 children bornto Geneva and Robert GumbertSr., he was drafted May 16, 1969,at the age of 19. On June 22,1970, in a province of SouthVietnam, during hostile enemyfire, he was killed. His body wasnot recovered.

Among the medals I present-ed to his father, Robert GumbertSr., were the Bronze Star andthe Purple Heart.

Another of those we honoredwas VietnamWar veteran DaleW. McCracken of Blue Ash, whosurvived combat but passedaway this September. The Cler-mont County Veterans ServiceCommission helped obtain themedals he earned as a staffsergeant in the Army. His wid-ow, Ann, accepted on his behalfthe Bronze Star and other med-als. As I presented the awards,

her eyes filled with tears ofgratitude - and pride in herhusband.

Unfortunately, DaleMcCracken’s illness was associ-ated with exposure in Vietnamto the herbicide Agent Orange.This goes to show that our veter-ans aren’t always out of harm’sway just because they no longerare fighting on the front lines.

And so it’s important that wehave organizations such as theClermont County Veterans Ser-vice Commission to advocate forthem and help them receivebenefits to which they are enti-tled.

It has been an honor for meto participate in such ceremon-ies as a member of Congress,and I am grateful to all whohelped shine a spotlight on thecontributions and sacrificesmade by our veterans - and theirfamilies.

Nov. 14 questionDo you think Congress will be

able to work out a deal to avoidthe upcoming ‘fiscal cliff,’ the ex-piration of almost every tax cutenacted since 2001 and the first$110 billion of $1.2 trillion inspending cuts set tooccurover10years. Why or why not?

“Yes, Congress and the presi-dent will work out a deal to avoidgoing over the fiscal cliff. It is inno one's interest to allow the in-discriminate cuts that sequestra-tion involves and to let us sinkinto another recession. Theymay'punt' this into early next year,but theycanalwaysmake legisla-tion retroactive back to the be-ginning of the year. So we reallydon't plunge off the cliff on Jan.1.

“Much more serious than the

short-termcliffare the long-termfinancial challenges that our na-tion faces. Massive annual defi-cits over the last four years haveled to a huge increase in the na-tionaldebt.Unprecedentedprint-ing of the dollar by the FederalReserve has facilitated this

spending and borrowing binge(some the of the printed moneywas used to buy the treasurydebt). The Social Security retire-ment, disability, and Medicareprograms are all unsustainableas more and more of us babyboomers get sick and retire.

“We need politicians with thecourage to start solving thesedif-ficult problems for the good ofthe nation. Unfortunately, to thispoint we have mostly had politi-cians who are more concernedwith their next election and withthe interests of their party. I praythat this will change.”

T.H.

“Doubtful. As the richest peo-ple in our land, why change?America re-elected them to keepon doing whatever it is they do.”

K.P.

“No, I don't. The Democratswant more money to spend with-out making cuts, and the Repub-licanswant thecuts, but fail tono-tice the huge debt the presidenthad incurred.

“Perhaps if President Obamatook time to notice what is goingon in Europe he might not feel sostrongly about entitlements andsocialized medicine. Unless hequits spending money he doesn'thave the U.S.A. is doomed.”

J.K.

“We will if the Republicans inCongress start doing their jobsinstead of angling for re-elec-tion.”

E.M.S.

“I seriously doubt it. The peo-plewhocreated thismessarestillvery much in control, and theydon't show signs of being willingto admit their mistakes and/orcompromise (as in 'It's allGeorgeBush's fault').

“I don't know what's ahead,but there isprecious little Icandobut pray.”

Bill B.

“Since the Republicans havevery fewmoderates or conserva-tives left from the old school Iwould say no. The right wing hashijacked the GOP and they willstand staunch against anythingthat hints at compromise. Ideolo-gy and party before the well be-ing of the nation and the people.God help us.

A unique opportunity to learn fromA unique opportunity to learn fromthe pros. These new classes arethe pros. These new classes are

beginning now.beginning now.

Yesterday I was sort-ing through the boxes ofoutdoor lights for ourtrees and wondering ifwe’re going to have topurchase more lights. Thetrees have grown quite abit since last year, in-cluding a small potted

evergreenthat RonWilson ofNatorp’s,our gardenguru, gaveme. I mayput thatone on thesideboardin thekitchen.

Theholidays really are fastapproaching, aren’t they?Hanukkah, Christmas,Boxing Day and Kwanzaaare all times to celebratefamily, friends and food.I’ll be sharing my bestrecipes, along with yours,so send your faves to mealong with the story ofwhy the recipe is special.

Stovetop turkey potpie

What to do with thatleftover turkey? Make apot pie. This works wellwith chicken, too. Depend-ing upon how your turkeywas seasoned to beginwith, you may need moregarlic, thyme, etc.

3 cups cooked turkey or

chicken, diced1⁄2 pound hot sausage,cooked

1⁄2 stick butter1⁄3 cup flour1 teaspoon garlic1⁄4 teaspoon dried thyme14.5 oz. can chicken broth ormore, if needed

2⁄3 cupmilkSalt and pepperPeas and carrots, as many asyou like

Good optional add-ins:sliced mushrooms,potatoes, etc.

Melt butter and stir inflour. Cook to get the rawtaste of the flour out, butdon’t let brown. Add gar-lic, thyme, broth and milk.Cook, whisking constant-ly, until slightly thick-ened. It will look a bitlumpy at first, but willsmooth out. Add turkey,sausage and vegetables.Cook until heated through,about 10-15 minutes. Sea-son to taste. Ladle overhot baked biscuits thatyou’ve split into two, orinto puff pastry shellsthat you’ve baked ahead.You can also put the fill-ing in a pie plate or casse-role, cut out a puff pastryor pie dough top to fit andpre-bake the top. Lay ontop of casserole to serve.

To finish in oven:Pour mixture after it’s

cooked into a sprayed,shallow casserole. Topwith pie crust and bake at

425 degrees until goldenbrown. You can also bakeit with a biscuit topping.Follow directions forbaking biscuits and usethat temperature: Put thebiscuits on top of the pieand bake.

LimoncelloThis Italian lemon

liqueur is an elegant addi-tion to your party or din-ner drink offerings, but is

expensive to buy. Thegreat thing about this is itkeeps just about foreverin the freezer. SometimesI’ll mix limes and lemonstogether. Make now forgift giving. Check out myblog for photos.

2 generous pounds lemons,thick-skinned

4 cups good quality vodka3 cups sugar3 cups water

Pour vodka in largeglass jar. Remove peelfrom lemons with a vege-table peeler. Take off allof the pith – that’s thewhite part – from the peelas it is really bitter. If youcan’t get it all off, do thebest you can. Place peel injar with vodka and cover.Let sit at room temper-ature for at least oneweek. Some recipes rec-ommend a dark place. I

like to leave it out on mycounter just to see thecolor change and smellthe lemon aroma when Iopen the jar. The vodkawill take on the color andflavor of the lemon as itsteeps. You can leave thelemon peels in the vodkafor a few weeks. Nowbring the sugar and waterto a simmer and stir untilsugar dissolves and thick-ens a bit. Let cool and thenadd that to vodka mixtureand stir. Strain and put inpretty bottles. Seal andchill a month in refriger-ator (or a couple weeks infreezer) before using. Touse, serve straight overice chips, mix with spar-kling wine or mineralwater and a lemon curl,toss with fresh fruit,serve over ice cream,frozen yogurt or simplecake.

Sixty-five teens fromvarious Clermont Countyhigh schools gathered Nov.8 at UC Clermont for thesecond Clermont CountyTeen Driver Summit.

This event was orga-nized to give teens ideasand tools to use in theirschools relating to reduc-ing crashes and promotingsafety.

“Teens represent only 7percent of drivers, but ex-perience nearly 16 percentof total crashes,” saidMar-tha Enriquez, coordinatorofSafeCommunities. “Thisis due primarily to inexpe-rience and an increasedtendency to take risks.”

Teams of students from10 local high schools partic-ipated and got to experi-ence several speakers. Thekeynote speaker was TylerOsborne, a Batavia resi-dent who experienced atraumatic brain injury inJanuary 2012 when hecrashed. Osborne told thegroup about his experienceand urged everyone tobuckle up.

The teens also heardfrom Susan Haumesser oftheKatieHaumesserFoun-dation, Rick Birt of SADD(StudentsAgainstDestruc-tive Decisions), Larry Gill-inger regarding motorcy-cle safety, ODOT repre-sentative Liz Lyons andTrooper Mark Johnson oftheOhio StateHighwayPa-trol. These professionalsled discussions about alco-hol laws, distracted driv-ing, impaired driving andprograms that are avail-able for high schools.

For many students, thehighlight came toward theend of the day with a spe-cial presentation by Tri-Health ThinkFirst InjuryPrevention Program. Ste-phanie Lambers, a healtheducator from BethesdaNorth, gave an overview ofthe human brain, empha-sizingwhat happens to var-ious body functions when apart of the brain is injured.

The teens were treatedto lunch and door prizes byChipotle Eastgate, East-

gate Panera, Meijers, JeffKnight State Farm Insur-ance, Silers Drive Thru,Benjys Drive Thru, BoarsHead Deli, Mamas Grill,

Marcos Pizza, Penn Sta-tion, CityBBQ,AmeliaBobEvans, Batavia GrammasPizza, and Sweet Frog Yo-gurt. Students from Ame-

lia, Batavia, ClermontNortheastern, Glen Este,Milford, Goshen, Williams-burg and Loveland partici-pated.

NON-DENOMINATIONAL

When paying for some-thing on the Internet, it’svery important to protectyourself in case you don’tget what you’ve ordered.

Unfortunately, consum-ers use their debit cardand end up getting burned.

That’s what happened toTonya Coffey of FairfieldTownship, who needs tostay in touch with her28-year-old daughter. Herdaughter has been in pris-on for the past 18 monthsand connects by telephone.

“The main factor hereis she has a 31⁄2-year-olddaughter that we have. Forher sake we want to main-tain that communication.That’s really important tous and it’s important to her.She has a mommy andwants to talk to her,” Cof-fey said

Trying to save moneyon pre-paid calls fromprison, Coffey saw an adfrom a company claimingit could save her big mon-ey on such calls. “Theyresponded quickly after Imade my $194 payment. Isubscribed to a two-year

plan,” Coffey said.But Coffey ran into

trouble with the jail’s reg-ular phone network when

she tried touse thisnew compa-ny’s ser-vice. “Thejail’s phonenetworkasked me alot of ques-tions Icouldn’tanswer. Sothey would

not permit me to have anaccount,” Coffey said.

The company Coffeypaid advertised a 100-percent money-back guar-antee. But although shewrote them seeking arefund, she didn’t get it.Then she wrote them shehad contacted me and thatgot her a reply.

“They did sendme ane-mail back saying theywere having trouble withtheir claims processor,with technical issues, torefund the money and theywould be getting back to

me. That was the last cor-respondence I got,” Coffeysaid.

Coffey got that re-sponse back in June andsays now she can’t evenreach the company byphone. “That’s no longer inoperation. Any email that Inow send them comes backundeliverable,” she said.

Unfortunately, Coffeypaid this company with herdebit card so the moneycame right out of her bankaccount. She didn’t use acredit card because shedidn’t have one. But ifyou’re planning on buyingsomething over the In-ternet, you need to have acredit card so you candispute the charge with thecredit card company. SinceCoffey didn’t get the ser-vice claimed – and failed toget the promised refund –she could have receivedher money from a creditcard company.

If you can’t qualify for acredit card, that should notstop you. You can get asecured credit card from alocal bank. For instance,one local bank charges $24per year for such a cardand allows you to depositas little as $300 into a sav-ings account at the bank.Your credit line will be tiedto the amount of money inyour savings account.

The bank charge isrelatively modest whenyou consider the protec-tion it offers should youneed to buy somethingover the Internet.

Howdy folks,As I write this article,

on Tuesday morning, it isreally frosty. I imagine thefrost is on the pumpkin,don’t you?

Now I imagine youfolks get tired of us writ-ing about our cat “Ches-sy.” Well, she has decidedsince it is colder that shewill come in at night andsleep. So she may sleep onthe rocking chair in ourroom or on the quilt rackon the side of the roomnext to Ruth Ann’s side ofthe bed. Then when shethinks it is time for herbreakfast, she will jumpon our bed to wake us up ifwe aren’t already up.

Folks, we lost a couplefolks this past week to theLord. One was SammuelTigert. This was a fineyoung feller that had akidney disease for manyyears. He will be missedby his family and co-work-ers and friends. Condo-lences to the family.

The second one was afine person who served in

the armedforces, hada jewelrystore herein Bethel,deliveredthe U.S.Mail andwas a goodfisherman.At the fu-neral, his

children and grandchil-dren gave a testimony forhis life, and how he tookcare of his late wife. Shehad some health problemsfor several years. Onseveral evenings, theywould get food from arestaurant then drivedown to the East ForkLake and eat their supperand watch the boats comeand go. Bill loved to fish.There were several folks,me included, to take himand Jerry fishing. After awhile Bill would say, “It isabout time to have a cup ofhomemade ice cream,don’t you think?” Noweven if the fish were bit-ing good, the lines were

pulled in and everyoneenjoyed a cup of Bill’shomemade ice cream.Jerry would always say,“You can’t improve onmaking ice cream. Duringthe children’s testimoniesof their dad, they saidwhen he was deliveringthe mail, if the weatherwas bad and folks had towalk a distance to gettheir mail, he would driveup to their house. We allknew him as Bill. His realname was Robert “Bill”White. The neighbors andhis family will miss thisbig smile he always had.Maybe the Good Lordneeds someone to deliverthe mail.

On Nov. 7, Ruth Annand I went over to theSenior Services Adult DayCare center and spoke tothem about the bestThanksgiving they everhad. There were about 60folks there along with theworkers. This is a specialtime for us to be able totalk to these wonderfulfolks. There are folksfrom our area. One is JackIreton. He worked for theHarlow Tractor sales,along with his late wifeOlive, for many years.

There were differentthoughts about Thanks-giving and everyone al-ways said they gavethanks for plenty of foodand how thankful theywere. This center is calledthe L.B.D. Adult Day Care.The L.B.D. is for LoisBrown Dale, the womanthat started the SeniorService program here inClermont County. MyMother kept foster chil-dren for several years.There were 32 differentkids. Mrs. Dale came toour place on differenttimes when she was withthat service.

For the noon meal to-day, Ruth Ann and I willtake fresh fish and go tomy brother and sister-in-laws’ home and fry thefish for dinner. Herb surelikes fresh fish that wecatch, so last Sunday afterchurch we went fishingand cleaned 14 nice crap-pie. They will be the fishto eat.

The Bethel Lions Clubwill sponsor the Pam Noahand her swing band con-cert at the Bethel-TateMiddle School on Fridayevening, Nov. 30, at 7:30for two hours of beautiful

music. This is free to ev-eryone, so come and enjoy.This will kick off theDown Home Christmasevent that will be on Sat-urday, Dec. 1, and end withthe Community Choirmusic at the Bethel UnitedMethodist Church on Sun-day evening. There will beevents taking place all dayon Saturday with a paradeat 6 p.m. The Bethel LionsClub do so much for thecommunity. They pay foreye exams, glasses, schoolprograms, school supplies,gave trees to the fifth-grade students, maintainthe walking path. Theydonate to the Kitchen ofHope at the MethodistChurch, the Bethel Minis-terial Association, adopttwo seniors for Christmas,furnish a meal for a needyfamily for Thanksgiving,have the pancake break-fasts to raise money sothey can keep helpingfolks. Keep collectingused eyeglasses and givethem to the Lions Club tobe sent to the third worldcountries. The Northeast-ern Lions Club madedresses for little girls inHaiti, the boys didn’t getany, so they now are mak-

ing clothes for the boys.The Bethel Lions Clubdonated $200 to the LionsClub International Relieffund to help the folks thatwere affected by Hurri-cane Sandy. The club isalways looking for newmembers. They meettwice a month on the firstand third Mondays at 6:30p.m. at the Grant Memori-al Building on the cornerof Plane and Main streets.The members pay theirown dues and for theirmeals. If you want in-formation, you may call usat 734-6980.

Now we hope and prayeveryone has a goodThanksgiving and plentyto eat. This is a time tospend plenty of time withyour family. Years ago itwas a day for the men andboys to go rabbit hunting.Be sure to give the GoodLord thanks.

Start your week byattending the house ofworship of your choiceand praise the Good Lord.God bless all. More later.
