What’s this? Have you checked the price of toothpaste lately? Forget gasoline. It has to be the aluminum hydroxide ingredient that is driving up the cost of your latest tube. Since something may have to give betwixt driving and brushing – I’m looking into the twigs and charcoal method. Then again, I remember what John Adams teeth looked like in the HBO series. How they knew that, I’m not sure, but retaining the pearly whites is probably worth the investment. I imagine you have already heard about the little gum flap at the Oscars, huh? Didn’t watch it. I was somehow wrapped up in the NCIS marathon. For some reason (bad programming maybe?) I have gravitated over the past few years to the non major network channels like AMC, Spike, USA or TNT. Of course ESPN has to be in there too. And I must admit, I’m a channel surfer. That commercial comes on, press, press, and press, I’m off to another channel – but wait, the programming gurus have wised up to me – BECAUSE – there are commercials on the other channels too. Don’t care, I’m still surfing. And I get this trait honestly. Any ideas on how the mess in Libya is going to work out? According to their government, everything is cool. Right. Apparently there must be something positive about democracy. We Americans know this of course. How many of these recent protests might be driven by social media? Governments are finding out that access to the internet and mobile

devices make it hard to keep your masses from knowing what is happening in the rest of the world. All I know right now is that gasoline prices are climbing thanks to this little mess in Tripoli. But more power to the folks in Libya. The biggest enemy

of the current economic recovery would seem to be inflation. Many, if not most of you reading this column will recall the runaway inflation during the Carter era. Now, that probably won’t happen anytime soon but the spikes in gasoline, corn and other commodity prices could have an impact on the growth of the economy. Keeping gasoline prices in mind, there are several opportunities to stay local and enjoy what our community has to offer with upcoming events at the Triple Locks Theater and Coshocton High School. On top of all this, the birds are starting to sing (no, not those dang crows), the days are getting longer (remember to move those clocks AHEAD the weekend of March 12-13) and very soon you will have to make sure your dog doesn’t get sprayed by chasing a skunk. Yep, it tends to happen this time of year. Let’s hope the price of tomato juice stays low. What’s that you say? Yea, I know, tomato prices are up as well. Switching gears real fast, good luck to our area state wrestling qualifiers.

former ridgewood track student named to u.S. national cross country team bY jim barStow

There have been some trying times during his professional career as a runner, but Brian Olinger has always kept one word in his vocabulary. Perseverance. And on Feb. 5, his hard work and determination paid off in tremendous fashion as the former Ridgewood High School track and cross country standout earned a spot on the U.S. National Cross Country team. Competing at the U.S. Cross Country Championships in San Diego, Olinger finished sixth overall on a course laid out in Mission Bay Park. He completed the six-lap, 2,000-meter course with a time of 36:05. Now, he’s awaiting delivery of his Team USA singlet via UPS. “My goal going in was to be in the top six overall and when I did, I was overcome with joy,” Olinger said. “Qualifying for my first National Team is something I’ll never forget and will cherish for a very long time.” Olinger said the feeling is comparable to winning a state championship in high school, winning his first Big 10 title in track and the time he earned his first All-American certificate in cross country. But this one is extremely special. “Each of those achievements represented a new level of competitiveness and were certainly the greatest things I had accomplished up to that day,” he said. His next step will be the World Cross Country Championships in Punta Umbria, Spain. Afterwards, he will transition back to the track to prepare for the US Nationals in Eugene, Oregon in June where he will compete in the 10K in hopes of reaching even greater heights. “Obviously, we are nearing the 2012 Olympics next year, which will become my sole focus,” Olinger said. Olinger has had his share of success in the running world. Following an illustrious career at Ridgewood High School, he became a five time All-American and Big Ten champion at Ohio State. Some of his goals also eluded him, once finishing one second behind the final qualifying position on the U.S. Olympic

steeplechase squad, but this achievement has provided him with one of the defining moments of his career. “This is a huge confidence-builder and a reassurance that I can compete at this level,” Olinger said. “I’ll admit that there were times over the past couple years while struggling with some nagging injury problems that I questioned what I was doing. “I wondered if it was time to move on and start a normal career, but I kept coming back to the fact that there were things I had yet to accomplish that I thought were certainly attainable and the haunting reality that whenever I decided I was done with competitive running, I was DONE. “You simply can’t come back to this level after a hiatus from the sport at my age.” His trek to San Diego came on the heels of 90 to 95 miles of running per week and a weight-lifting routine to help add some structural stability. He left for San Diego after New Year’s Eve and drove 1,263 miles to the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs where he spent a month training in the high altitude.

“That ended up being a fantastic month of training and the resources there really allowed me to get dialed in and prepared for (San Diego),” he said. Olinger, his wife Jamie and their 2-year-old daughter Marley reside in Westerville. He works out and trains with the OSU team and his college mentor, Robert Gary, is his personal coach. “My family has been incredibly supportive, especially my wife,” he said. “She understood the need for me to leave for 34 days and while am sure she was not excited about it on the inside, she allowed me to do so without feeling the strain or pressure of me being away from home for so long.”

He is a son of Terry and Pam Olinger of Fresno. “It has most definitely been a collective investment from all of us and I’m incredibly honored to go and represent my country and I am so excited to wear the USA singlet.”

coshocton hospital earns acr accreditationCoshocton Hospital has been awarded a three-year term of accreditation in mammography as the result of a recent review by the American College of Radiology (ACR). Mammography is a specific type of imaging test that uses a low-dose x-ray system to examine breasts. A mammography exam, called a mammogram, is used to aid in the early detection and diagnosis of breast diseases in women. The ACR gold seal of accreditation represents the highest level of image quality and patient safety. It is awarded only to facilities meeting ACR Practice Guidelines and Technical Standards after a peer-review evaluation by board-certified physicians and medical physicists who are experts in the field. Image quality, personnel qualifications, adequacy of facility equipment, quality control procedures, and quality assurance programs are assessed. The findings are reported to the ACR Committee on

Accreditation, which subsequently provides the hospital with a comprehensive report they can use for continuous practice improvement. This accreditation follows Coshocton Hospital’s April 2010 conversion to full field digital mammography. The digital system eliminates the need for film, allowing immediate access to the image for review by the radiologist. The digital image can also be easily transmitted to the patient’s physician and efficiently saved for comparison to the patient’s future mammography screenings. The ACR is a national professional organization serving more than 34,000 diagnostic/interventional radiologists, radiation oncologists, nuclear medicine physicians, and medical physicists with programs focusing on the practice of medical imaging and radiation oncology and the delivery of comprehensive health care services.

dixie wyler named to ohio travel association boardDixie Wyler, owner and president of Eastern Ohio Tours, LLC has accepted an appointment to serve on the Ohio Travel Association’s (OTA) Board of Directors. Wyler, from Adams Mills, Ohio, will serve as a southeast regional representative position for a term of three years. OTA is a trade association comprised of members of the state’s travel and tourism industry. “We are very pleased that Dixie has been appointed to the board of directors,” said Marc McQuaid, OTA Executive Director. “She is expected to provide unique perspectives as an Ohio tour operator and respected member of eastern Ohio’s tourism community.” Debbie Robinson, President of Ohio Travel Association and the Executive Director of Cambridge/Guernsey County Visitors & Convention Bureau says Wyler will offer the organization additional representation from the Southeastern Ohio region. “Dixie’s experience as a receptive tour operator provides the OTA board with a good mix of directors,” said Robinson. “Our board is comprised of destination marketing organizations, attractions, hoteliers and restaurateurs. Her unique perspective will serve us well.” The OTA board is also comprised of board members from each of the state’s five regions. “Both Dixie and I serve the Southeast Region along with Kim Bauer, Portsmouth –Scioto County Visitors Bureau; Kyrsten Walton, Ross-Chillicothe Convention & Visitors Bureau; and Karen Raymore, Hocking Hills Tourism Association,” said Robinson. Wyler’s company, Eastern Ohio Tours, LLC, is a receptive tour company that works to create group tours for clients. “We also work with other tour companies, for instance, if a company from New York City wanted to tour this region of Ohio they could either utilize me as a guide or as a resource to create a tour for them,” Wyler said. “I can create a unique tour experience that weaves in history and fun for guests. I try to go over and above a tour group’s expectations with good research and kindness to each guest on my trips. I work with tour companies throughout the country to bring bus

groups into this region of Ohio and I also work with local groups such as a church group that wants to put together a group tour somewhere.” Just a few of Eastern Ohio’s popular tours include ‘Not So Dearly Departed’, ‘Both Sides of the Coin’, ‘Walk Like and Egyptian’, and a ‘Day in the Country’. “We are now putting the final touches on tours for the World Choir Games 2012,” she said. Find details about these and other tours on www.EasternOhioTours.com or 740-754-1833. Wyler has worked in the tourism industry for over 25 years, including 15 years in group tour sales at Historic Roscoe Village, and is familiar with all this part of Ohio has to offer. “This region has tremendous tourism dollar value, natural beauty, noteworthy Native American and early settler history, fabulous architecture, coal mining history, wonderful art pottery and glass history, and agriculture,” she said. “Our food here is delicious and a great value. Tour companies and guests from New York, California and other parts of the country are flabbergasted at our reasonable prices. Places like Historic Roscoe Village, German Village, Marietta, and Nelsonville do not exist anywhere else and visitors truly enjoy traveling to this part of Ohio. “I am honored and look forward to working with the OTA Board which will allow me to

showcase this region of Ohio to an even greater extent,” said Wyler. “I am also blessed to work in this industry with friends old and new in the most wonderful job in the world.” Founded in 1976, the Ohio Travel Association is a trade association comprised of members of the travel and tourism industry in Ohio. OTA is the united voice of Ohio’s travel and tourism industry, providing members with legislative representation, educational and networking opportunities. OTA’s mission is to lead the Ohio travel and tourism industry and to promote hospitality and economic development.

Mary Evelyn Mikesell, senior at Union High School in Coshocton County, tied for first place along with another senior girl from Wooster in the State Scholarship test, with a score of 254. The next-highest score was from a senior boy in Canton, which was 252. Mikesell was no stranger to recognition. She was the secretary of the student council and music club and had played in the high school band for six years. A dress she had made was judged the best in the county during the 1950 Coshocton County Fair. She also had won the Sears-Roebuck home furnishings foundation silver award. Mikesell was also chairperson of the Methodist Youth Fellowship of the district and editor for the school newspaper. She planned to attend Kent State and major in journalism or home economics.

1961March 5th, 1961

Mrs. Effie Darling McDermott, the oldest woman living in Coshocton County at the time, celebrated her 101 birthday at the Border nursing home in Warsaw. McDermott recollected many memories of her childhood. She was born March 5, 1860 on a farm, which had been owned by the family since 1818. During the month of her birth, Coshocton County was making plans for the eighth annual fair. McDermott was also a passenger on the first steamboat to travel on the Walhonding canal. She remembered making her first trip to California when she was 76 years old and climbing a rope ladder to the top of one of the warships anchored in Los Angeles. She took her first airplane ride when she was 96 years old, and remembered walking or riding in a horse and buggy to school. She celebrated her birthday with an open house for friends and family.

1971March 7th, 1971

Chester Gary, owner of Gary Lumber and Building Supply in Plainfield, made his first violin in the winter of 1966. Gary attended a concert at the Coshocton High School where he met world-renown violinist, David Rubinoff. He mentioned his hobby to the maestro and Rubinoff agreed to come to Gary’s shop. Rubinoff and Gary met at Gary’s shop and the two entertained a small audience which had formed. Among the guests were Kenny Sidle, three-time winner of the Ohio fiddling championship; Cliff Hardesty of West Lafayette, who had placed third in the state fiddling contest; and Bob Mason of New Concord, a performer on both the violin and the guitar. Rubinoff chose one of Gary’s homemade violins to play a few pieces on during his next concert in Newcomerstown.

1981March 2nd, 1981

Cliff Roahrig, Coshocton High School swimming team coach, was named the East-Southeast District Coach of the Year. Figuring prominently in the selection was the fact that Roahrig’s squad won their second straight District title and qualified five entries in the state meet. In addition to their district crown, the Redskins beat each of the other five teams in the district in dual meet competitions.

local leaders provide update at quarterly chamber meeting bY mark fortune

Representatives of the city, county, Port Authority, Convention and Visitor’s Bureau and Chamber of Commerce provided updates at the quarterly Chamber luncheon meeting held at Roberta’s Catering & Event Center on Thursday, Feb. 24. Amy Hasseman recognized committee members and those in attendance introduced themselves and the business or organization they represent. Dorothy Skowrunski provided an update from the Coshocton Port Authority, the Honorable Mayor of Coshocton Steve Mercer gave attendees an update on the state of the city, Coshocton County Commissioner Gary Fischer remarked on the status of the county, Belinda Williamson talked about activities at the CVB and Carol Remington concluded with an update on the Chamber of Commerce and the upcoming Chamber auction.

Of special interest to everyone in the community was an update from Gary Fischer that sales tax income was up 5.5% in 2010 and is currently up 8% over last year for the same time frame. Fischer also commented on the broadband initiative in Coshocton County, which is being held up as a model for other communities. McClure provided these comments regarding the presentation to Joe Miller. “With thousands of outdoor sporting goods items in stock, including the largest indoor gun display in the state of Ohio, Woodbury Outfitters has become a mecca for sportsmen and women in a multi-state area, thereby contributing to additional sales dollars by our other area merchants.” Skowrunski told Chamber members that the county was already reaping rewards from the significant energy investment grant of $600,000. This grant enabled the county to upgrade buildings with

insulation, lighting and other improvements. Skowrunski congratulated the commissioners on having the foresight to capture this grant. Four EPA initiatives are currently ongoing in the county. Mayor Mercer talked about infrastructure projects to improve water and sewer lines in the Kensington Road area this year and the recently concluded water agreement between the city and county. Coshocton County Commissioner Gary Fischer also commented on the plans to expand city water to the County Road 495 area later this year.

unemployed last year? how to get the tax breaks you deserve(ARA) - At the end of 2010, 14.5 million people were unemployed and many more were out of work at one time or another throughout the year. In preparing 2010 tax returns, people who’ve been unemployed should make sure they are getting every available tax break they deserve and preparing their taxes correctly. “Being out of work is stressful enough. Not knowing if you’re getting all the tax breaks you should, or being concerned you’re going to make mistakes that may cost you, just adds to the stress,” says Gary Lundberg a tax software professional with CompleteTax. CompleteTax is an online tax software program offering free federal tax preparation for people who were unemployed during 2010. He offers these tax tips to help people who have been unemployed. 1. Understand what your tax responsibilities are. People who are out of work are still responsible for filing a tax return and paying income taxes. This includes taxes on unemployment benefits or severance benefits they may have received. Many people incorrectly believe that simply being out of work means they do not have to prepare a tax return or pay taxes, according to a

nationwide survey conducted by CompleteTax of more than 1,000 taxpayers. “Even though you still have to file a tax return, your income is likely lower than in previous years, so there’s a good chance you may have a refund coming,” says Lundberg. 2. Make sure to get all the tax breaks you deserve. Being out of work may allow people to take advantage of several credits and deductions. For example, certain job-search expenses can be deducted if you’re looking for a job in your current profession. These include: * Travel for job interviews * Printing and mailing resumes * Outplacement firm fees However, the CompleteTax survey found that many taxpayers also incorrectly believe they can deduct haircuts or clothes necessary for job interviews, a home office to use in their job search and classes to learn new skills outside their trade. Many taxpayers also mistakenly believe that simply being out of work allows them to deduct their health care costs. While in some instances, people who are unemployed can deduct their health care costs, other criteria also must be

met. “You want to make sure you know what you can and can’t claim. By using a tax program that includes resources to help you make those decisions, you can be confident you’re completing your taxes accurately and getting the maximum tax refund you deserve,” says Lundberg. 3. Look for affordable tax prep and file as soon as possible. People using online tax preparation programs can often prepare and file their tax returns for less than $70. People who are out of work may be able to file for considerably less. For example, Lundberg notes, CompleteTax offers free federal tax preparation for people who were unemployed during 2010. People who were out of work also want to file as early as possible. “If you were unemployed, you’ll especially want your refund as soon as possible,” says Lundberg. “If you e-file and choose direct deposit, you could have your money in as few as eight days.” For more tips on tax preparation and to read the nationwide survey on unemployment and taxes go to www.CompleteTax.com.

road trip! a mature dude’s guide to roaming the highways(ARA) - Work, kids, working out, taking care of the house, and a hairline that’s heading for the back of your collar - it’s enough to make a guy understand why some men feel the urge to

buy an outrageously impractical sports car at this stage of life. But you don’t need a mid-life crisis. What you need is a road trip. Road trips are a rite of passage for young men everywhere, but college dudes shouldn’t be the only ones who get to enjoy this uniquely American kind of adventure. If skinny neckties and big hair were in style the last time you took a road trip with your buds, it may be time to toss a duffel in the truck bed, round up your amigos and hit the highway. A few practical measures can help ensure your more mature road trip is still fun and works for everyone: Packing it in Your days of cramming six guys and all their gear into a barely drivable, high-mileage sub-compact are probably over. A reliable yet fun-to-drive pickup is perfect for your grown-up road trip with the guys. And since your stuff is probably going to be worth more than what you

toted around during your college days, be sure to protect it. A lockable roll-up cover, like the tonneau cover line by Access Cover, will keep your belongings protected from the elements - including criminal elements - while you’re on the road. Plus, a truck bed cover can help improve your vehicle’s gas mileage. As for what to pack, be sure to include an emergency roadside kit, first aid kit and any medications that you regularly need. Bring along a GPS device and your trusty mobile phone so you can stay on track and in touch. You might also consider a set of dressier clothes if your dining tastes have matured since your fast-food days. Finely tuned machines In the old days, you might have motored through the night with just a few hours of sleep and several cups of coffee to keep you going - and that was part of the thrill. These days, however, you probably appreciate a more relaxed pace, which includes sleeping well and eating right. Keeping yourself “well tuned” can help ensure you enjoy your road trip as much as possible. You’ll also want to make sure your vehicle is in top condition. It’s a good idea to change the oil, and check the tire pressure and coolant system before you get on the road. If your vehicle is due for some routine maintenance, have it done before you start your trip. Have a plan, man How many road trips of your youth ended up at a destination other than the one you had in mind when you started out? Meandering can be fun, but having a plan can be rewarding too. Your taste in destinations has probably matured, so consult with your traveling partners and consider spots that appeal to your current interests and finances. For example, you may have developed an affinity for wine, where once you preferred beer. A tour of wine country may be in order. Perhaps you’ve discovered an interest in history? Consider taking the guys to a civil war re-enactment or to one of the country’s great historic cities, like Savannah, San Antonio, San Diego or even New York or Chicago. Use a GPS or online resource to pre-plan your route and make sure the people you love know where you’ll be along the way. The mechanics of your mature road trip may be a world away from the fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants style you favored in your college days. But a road trip can be a great way to relax and reconnect with friends no matter what stage you’re at in life.

coshocton presbyterian church to host annual lenten lunchesWith this year’s theme, “The Rocks of Our Faith,” the 42nd year of Lenten Luncheons will begin on Ash Wednesday, March 9, at the Presbyterian Church in Coshocton at 142 N. 4th St. The luncheons begin at 11:45 a.m. with the program following. “The luncheons and brief worship times are especially convenient for business persons around the city who can come for their lunch, as well as be fed by the fellowship together and in the word of God,” said Pastor Everett Stoddard of Prairie Chapel United Methodist Church, who is helping coordinate the programs. Those attending the first week will receive actual rocks to take home as a reminder of the preaching series which begins with a focus on the seed of the Gospel which fell on the path, among thorns, on the rock and on good soil. On the rock, the Good News sprang up but withered and died. That message will be offered as the “Parable of the Sower” by Rev. Mike Bilza of the Coshocton Alliance Church. Norma Owens of the First Baptist Church will be the day’s presenter and offer special music. Alice Hoover will accompany singing. There are different pastors and presenters each week, which especially gives the community the opportunity to hear messages from pastors they might not normally experience. The luncheons are open to all persons. Other messages about the rocks of our faith include: March 16 – Pastor Mark Granger of New Life Ministries preaching on the Temptation of Jesus. Jesus was tempted by Satan to throw himself down from the highest point of the Temple quoting Scripture that the angels would protect him so he would not strike his foot against a stone. March 23 – Pastor Chris Cutshall of Fresno Bible Church preaching on the Triumphal Entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. Jesus was chastised by religious leaders to have his people be quiet, but he said if he told the people to be quiet the very stones would cry out rejoicing on his arrival. March 30 – Rev. Bryan Kittner of Emmanuel Lutheran Church preaching on Peter’s Denial. Peter denied Jesus three times but he was restored by Jesus and eventually Jesus said on this rock he would build his church. April 6 – Pastor Starkey Lawrence of Shepherd’s Christian Assembly preaching on the Death of Jesus. At his death on the cross there was an earthquake and the rocks split. The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. April 13 – Mrs. Alice Hoover of Roscoe United Methodist Church will offer a depiction concerning the burial of Jesus. In the Book of Luke it records that Jesus body was placed in a tomb cut in the rock. The tomb was sealed by a great stone with guards standing by. The Lenten Luncheon series began 42 years ago with the Rev. Robert Rezash, who brought the tradition to Coshocton from churches he’d served in Pennsylvania. More than 200 guests have attended the luncheons on most weeks where soup is almost always served and the menu is traditionally topped off with pies provided by the area churches. The luncheon meals are coordinated by Sue Carlisle of the Presbyterian Church. A minimal donation to offset costs is asked of the guests. Proceeds from the soup and light lunch go to Church Women United to help buy school clothes for more than 60 students of need in the county each August. Coordinating the programs this season are the Rev. Philip Hunt of the Central Christian Church, Pastor David Kraft of the First Baptist Church of West Lafayette, Pastor Stoddard, Mrs. Carlisle and Mrs. Hoover.

lenten services planned for the river view ministerial association

The River View Ministerial Association will have weekly services for the Lenten Season beginning Sunday, March 13 at Camp Warsaw Retreat Center, which is the campground located at 818 E. Main St. Warsaw, Ohio, across from the Post Office. “We are excited to hold our services at the Retreat Center,’ said Pastor Tim Thomas, secretary of the River View Ministerial Association. “We have been working closely with Pastor Mark Schwartz of the Retreat Center to make this year’s services easily accessible as well as easy to remember where the services are being held. Every year the association works together to present Lenten services and this year we wanted to make sure the community would know where the services were being held and to invite not only the churches but the community to come and worship with us. This year, the biggest difference will be that we have invited choirs from our association churches to sing during the services and our Good Friday service we will feature a combined choir made up of all the choirs that sang during our Lenten services along with anyone who would like to attend the combined choir practices during the

Lenten season.” The services will be in the Chapel building located on the Retreat Center campus, which will hold approximately 500 guests. The services will begin each Sunday beginning March 13 at 7 p.m. and will run through next five consecutive Sundays of the Lenten season with a Good Friday service on Friday, April 22 at 7 p.m. Speakers this year will be Pastor Monica Huntsman of the Nellie United Methodist Church, Pastor Joy Blaney of the Conesville United Methodist Church, Pastor Ron Davis of Gospel Hill, Pastor Sharon Kirch of Gods Eternal Fellowship Church, Pastor Mark Schwartz, who is pastor of the Camp, and Pastor Tim Thomas of Warsaw first Presbyterian Church. Come worship and fellowship with us during the Lenten Season. For information about the Retreat Center, Accessibility, the Lenten Services of the combined choir rehearsals, call Pastor Tim Thomas at 824-3173 or e-mail at [email protected].

warm up your kitchen with cozy colors(ARA) - Whether you’re an aspiring top chef, a novice cookie maker or anything in between, the kitchen can serve as the central meeting place for family and friends. Using warm wood colors and accents, while opting for the newest styles, instantly creates a more inviting look for your kitchen. Here are some ways to warm up your kitchen with color. So many delicious colors are available to help you create an inviting mood in your kitchen. Many of today’s hottest hues are inspired by favorite foods and pleasant kitchen experiences such as cooking, baking and entertaining. Examples include today’s popular paprika and cinnamon colors; soothing neutrals such as tarragon and sage; and the deep, rich tones of wine or cherry. These colors, when used in wall coverings, flooring or accessories, can provide a backdrop that sets the tone in your kitchen. There’s nothing like the look of real wood to add a comforting feel to any room. And, since cabinetry is often one of the biggest visual elements in a kitchen, consider cabinetry in a warm color to make a high-impact statement. Many on-trend wood types are available in surprisingly affordable styles from manufacturers of semi-custom cabinetry. “Today’s semi-custom cabinetry gives homeowners access to some of the most desired wood types including cherry, known for its deep reddish tones, and alder, which can lend a rustic or casual feel to a kitchen,” says Cathy Hitz, brand manager for Diamond Cabinets. “It’s easy to combine these woods with special cabinetry touches, such as turnings and moldings, to create a very comfortable and personalized look for a kitchen.” Recently Diamond made some of its most popular door styles available in new wood types. For example, the Shiloh door style features a simplistic look and is available in cherry, alder and rustic alder. Another warm look can be created with Montgomery, a venerable favorite shaker/cottage style door, in alder and rustic alder. These wood types not only provide a cozy look, but their transitional styles can complement a variety of design themes. Offset the warm tones of the wood with the gleam of reflective accents. One way to add both style and light to the space is to choose decorative glass inserts for the cabinet doors. You can create just about any look you want with glass designs ranging from clear

reeded glass with copper metal, to clear antique glass with zinc black patina metal. Textured glass styles are also available with shimmering special effects such as bronzed fabric. And with the popularity of mixed metals, feel free to introduce additional metallic elements such as a copper hood over the range or decorative hardware in contrasting metals. Complement the warm design theme by treating the eye to textured surfaces. Use woven baskets for storage or decorative purposes, add comfy textured pillows to the bar stools and bring in other textured elements in the form of rattan, fabric or pottery. Don’t be afraid to sprinkle in elements of color surprise here and there to keep the space interesting, whether it’s the splash of a lipstick red vase or a family photo framed in a vivid shade of electric blue. Let your kitchen

be a personal palette that reflects your true personality. Warm it up with color, and no one will ever want to leave the room.

The power of 60 seconds: How to fit ‘doing good’ into any schedule(ARA) - No matter how much you want to volunteer and find ways to give back to your community, for most people, it seems difficult to find the time. With everything that needs to get done each day, it rarely seems like your schedule can accommodate a moment to relax, much less taking on a big volunteer commitment. Nonprofits know just how packed the average person’s schedule is, and they’re trying to make it easier for you to make a difference. And with new ways to give and some creative thinking, you really will be able to find the time to give back. Consider these great ways to make a difference that won’t interfere with your schedule: * Go online. Everyone - including nonprofit organizations - knows the power of the Web. That means that nonprofits are making it easier than ever for you to interact with them via their websites. For instance, when you visit JoinMyVillage.com, 60 seconds of your time releases corporate donations that make a

real impact for girls and women in Africa. By visiting the site and watching a video or going through a photo story for just 60 seconds, you’ll be releasing dollars from General Mills and Merck that go toward the work CARE, a leading international humanitarian organization, is doing in Malawi to help empower girls and women living in poverty to make lasting change in their lives. * Make “doing good” part of usual activities. Look for creative ways to add volunteering or supporting a program to something you already have planned. If you’re going to host an event like a book club meeting or a party, consider it an opportunity to raise money or awareness for causes you support. You can either discuss it with friends, and encourage them to get involved, or turn a party into a fundraiser. If you plan to hold a fundraiser, contact the nonprofit you want to support and they can often give you tips and materials to help with planning the event. Or, if you have a weekend (or even a weeknight) set aside for family time, make it a charitable effort.

You could go as a group to a soup kitchen, lend a hand to clean up a local park, or volunteer to help walk animals at a local shelter. * Use the power of social networking. Word of mouth is as important today as it has ever been, but now it’s your digital voice that carries farthest. Using social networking tools like Facebook and Twitter allow you to reach a lot of people with little effort - and little time. Tweet about a nonprofit you support and what their newest initiatives are, and your 140 characters have the potential to reach countless other users, through re-tweets from your followers. Thousands of nonprofits can be searched on www.causes.com, which connects directly to Facebook, making it easy for you to “like” organizations and get updates on the work they’re doing. You can even find Join My Village on Causes and unlock more money to fight poverty in Africa when you “like” the page. Plus, when others see you interacting with an organization on a social networking site, it can build their curiosity and encourage them to get involved as well. .

united way recognizes local givers bY mark fortune

The United Way of Coshocton County held their annual meeting at the Presbyterian Church in Coshocton on Thursday morning, Feb. 24. Following a welcome by United Way Board President, Rebecca Porteus, and invocation by Rev. Robert Millspaugh, Porteus told those gathered, “Today we are here to celebrate the generosity of this great community. We’re here to celebrate you, the people behind our campaign, the people that have risen to the occasion and help create the success that we have had. Times are tough for everyone right now, some of the toughest times that we have seen. But the people of Coshocton have risen to the challenge to help others and make this a successful campaign. To date, we have received through donations and pledges $343,927. That’s 98% of our goal of $350,000. We’re here to celebrate our successes and to say “thank you” to each of you. Each of you who have helped made this all possible.” Smurfit-Stone was the top giver with over $45,000 and received generous applause from the attendees. Wes Enlow commented, “The United Way is one of our centers of excellence that we work on every year. Twelve years ago it was Stone Container, now it’s Smurfit-Stone and soon to be Rock-Tenn. Rock-Tenn will be committed to this community as in the past. We enjoy and feel that we need to be a part of this community, to make it a strong community.

And after all, our employees come from this community and benefit from this community. I can’t say enough for Winnie Ellis and Gwen Miller that put our campaign on this year and for that matter, the entire United Way group. They had a phenomenal year with the difficult economic times. I can’t say enough.” Winnie Ellis, campaign co-chair for Smurfit Stone remarked, “I’m very proud of the employees and their giving. They have giving hearts and it means a lot giving back to the community as they have.” Rebecca Porteus added, “I just really want to thank all of the people because this doesn’t happen without a lot of community support. Everyone supporting the campaign in their different businesses and industries and just making it all work together for the benefit of the different agencies we represent. The industry – we had several of the major industries in our community really step up – and go above the contributions they have made in the past. There was a little friendly competition for the top give award but the bottom line is that it is all going to help our community. Smurfit Stone was not only our corporate sponsor this year but was also the top giver for the campaign. Clows, AEP Conesville, AK Steel, Coshocton Hospital, all of them really stepped up and made a big difference in reaching our goal as close as we did.”

In addition to Smurfit Stone, the four above earned the President’s Award for contributions over $10,000. The industrial division exceeded their campaign goal by over 6%. Lyn Mizer, new executive director of the United Way, said, “It is nice that people have come forward out of the community to have breakfast with us and to see how generous other people have been. Just yesterday we received a check for over $1800 from the student council at River View Junior High, which took us from 97% to 98%. We were so excited to receive that, these kids came forth and made that happen and that’s terrific. We’ve been sending out thank you letters to our donors and a lot of them were for $52. That may seem like a strange amount, but not if you give a dollar a week. It does not hurt and you may not think it adds up but $50 at the end of the year adds up. If 100 people give $50 now you’re talking some money. A lot of people do give this amount and their gifts add up. They all make a difference.” The United Way of Coshocton County supports twenty different agencies in Coshocton County. They are currently seeking a corporate sponsor for the 2011-2012 campaign year. For more information contact the local United Way office at 740-622-4567.

Save time and money with proactive home maintenance(ARA) - If you think home maintenance means fixing something only when it’s broken, then you could be in for some costly surprises. Routine maintenance can help identify and address home-related issues early and prevent them from becoming bigger problems later. Spring and summer are ideal times to perform critical home-related projects. The improved weather allows better access to areas of the home and yard that may have been inaccessible during winter, and the additional daylight allows more time for outdoor work than other times of the year. “Cars get routine maintenance from a mechanic and people get regular checkups from a doctor, but unfortunately our homes often get neglected until it’s too late,” says Rhonda Hills of Kudzu.com, an online resource for homeowners looking for expert home advice and local service providers. “Homes need constant attention, and in most cases regular maintenance can help save thousands of dollars by allowing owners to catch problems early or prevent them altogether.” The home experts at Kudzu.com recommend completing these home projects this spring and summer. You and your home will be thankful you did. * Get your air conditioner serviced - Properly maintained heating and air conditioning systems run more efficiently and have a longer life expectancy. During a maintenance visit, your HVAC technician should check your system’s

refrigerant levels, clean the condenser coil, replace dirty filters and calibrate your thermostat among other things. The goal is to ensure your air conditioning system is operating properly and is in tip-top-shape for the warmer weather ahead. * Inspect the roof - Wind, rain, hail and other weather events can damage the roof and leave it susceptible to leaks. When conducting a visual inspection, try to stay off the roof. Instead, start from the ground and look for missing or damaged shingles, discolored spots or areas of the roof that sag. * Check toilets for leaks - The average home loses 10,000 gallons of water per year to leaks, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. That’s enough water to fill a swimming pool. To ensure your home is leak free, start by checking your toilet. Just drop food coloring in the toilet’s tank. If after 30 minutes the water in the bowl starts to change colors, then there is a leak. This can usually be corrected by replacing the toilet’s flapper. * Have your home pressure washed - Pressure washing your home can keep it looking brand new and can also extend the life of your siding or other building materials. Dirt, mold and mildew will gradually accumulate on your home, deck and other surfaces, and you may not even notice it. In some cases, these contaminants can deteriorate building materials and can create slick, unsafe walking surfaces.

* Get your gutters cleaned - Gutters help capture rain that hits your home and direct it as far from the structure as possible. Clogged gutters cannot properly redirect water and can lead to water pooling against your home’s foundation and leaking into your crawlspace or basement. * Rake and aerate your lawn - Raking a winter’s worth of leaves will allow sunlight and nutrients to reach your sod, and aerating the lawn will prevent soil compaction, improve drainage and promote better root development. * Have your trees trimmed - Pruning is typically done to remove dead or diseased limbs, eliminate overcrowding or to prevent potential hazards. In addition to creating a healthier tree, pruning can also allow better light penetration which can be a benefit to plants below. * Look for termites - Termites are wood-destroying pests that can cause thousands of dollars in damage to your home. The most obvious sign of a termite infestation is a termite swarm, which is when winged termites take to the skies to find a mate. These winged termites are easily confused with winged ants, so if you spot a swarm, gather some of the winged specimens and immediately contact a professional pest control company so they can inspect. Visit Kudzu.com for more home improvement advice or to find a highly rated professional in your area that can help you get these projects done.

ten tips for dressing for the job interview(ARA) - In today’s highly competitive job market, it is imperative for candidates to be fully prepared for an interview. This includes choosing the appropriate interview attire. The idea is to project an image to a future employer that conveys a responsible, hard working and motivated worker. And nothing says that more clearly than what you choose to wear during that all-important first impression. Debra Pierce, director for career services for Miami International University of Art & Design and Kate Campbell, director for fashion and retail management at The Art Institute of Tampa, help shed some light on dressing for the interview in the new business environment. * Do your homework. Yes, dressing for the interview requires you to research the employer. If you are applying for a job with a young, trendy boutique, dress in a way that the interviewer can envision you in their shop servicing their clientele. * Stylish is better than funky. Employers want to see that you will fit in with their business. However, be warned - stylish is better than funky. Too much “trend” can scare a potential employer away. Good taste is more valuable than how avante-garde you can be. This is not the time to experiment. For the guys, the same rules apply.

“When you walk through the door, you should be mistaken for the boss,” says Campbell. “Caveat: This is a fine line to walk. If you walk in wearing Prada, and the interviewing manager is in a Brooks Brothers suit, are you sending the right message? Don’t overdress or get label happy. Leave the Gucci and Guess at home; keep it clean, neutral and generic.” * Clean goes a long way. Clean, pressed khakis or dress pants are preferred. Clean, appropriate shoes and accessories are essential (use a tie if it matches the employer’s profile). No T-shirts with political satire, obscene graphics or logos. No droopy jeans or visible underwear. Again, this is not the time to make a personal statement. You should reflect the employer’s values and image. If all else fails, a basic blue or gray suit is always stylish and in good taste. * Accessories. Be frugal with jewelry - less is more. If your jewelry jingles, makes noise or can get caught on any of your clothes, leave it at home. * Keep your grooming simple. Hair should be clean and neat, and nails clean and well manicured. Chipped nail polish will not make a good impression. The applicant should look like they cared enough to shower. Go light on makeup. Heavy eye makeup or lipstick is a no-no. * Go easy on the perfume and aftershave.

There is nothing worse than causing your interviewer to have an allergic reaction. * Shoes need to be clean and in good shape. “No sandals of any kind - no matter where you live,” says Campbell. * Color is important. Dressing for the interview also requires that you choose colors carefully. “Color as part of your interview strategy is extremely important since it is a useful tool in conveying a powerful message - that said, make sure you’re sending the right message,” says Pierce. Blue, especially navy, is a go-to color because it conveys an image of someone in control but it also conjures up calm, stability, trust, truth, confidence and security. Gray is the second most popular color for an interview after blue. It has similar traits to blue, but also denotes sophistication. While black commands authority, it also implies drama and can make you appear unapproachable, so use it sparingly - perhaps as an accent color. Green indicates nature, success, wealth and security. It is a calming color and is very relaxing. Dark green is masculine, conservative and implies wealth. Stay away from reds, oranges and yellows. Red is a powerful color and is associated with energy, passion, desire, power and aggression. Orange is similar to red in that it can stimulate strong emotions. Yellow promotes a wide range of emotions including cheer, goodwill, caution and even jealousy. For these reasons, any of these colors should be used as an accent color only. White shirts and blouses are conventional and convey cleanliness, goodness and precision. Purple and pinks are both feminine colors and should be worn with discretion, especially in fields with a strong gender bias. * When dressing for the job interview, one of the most important items to make sure you’re wearing is confidence. “Confidence comes from knowing who you are and what your values are, and most importantly being comfortable with them - whether or not you get the job,” says Pierce. Your level of confidence really does come across in an interview, so don’t forget to come prepared and show it.

#24 A New SchoolhouseThe first school board meeting was in

the one-room schoolhouse on April 20, 1850 where it was decided to build a new schoolhouse. The building was erected in

1855 and the cost was $4,500. The bell was placed on the building seven years later,

and money was raised through fines for the violation of liquor laws. In 1931, this

building became what is still today the Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum.



#23 School DaysThe first school in Coshocton County was

taught at a home on Second Street by Joseph Harris. A Revolutionary War

veteran also taught school in a house on the river bank. Finally, in 1828, a small brick

school, 20x30 feet, was built on the southwest corner of the courtsquare. It contained one room and was used until

1853.

bordenkircher speaks about heart disease in women at bpw meetingCoshocton Business and Professional Women (BPW) met Monday, Feb. 21, Noon - 1 p.m. at Windsorwood Place with 17 members and one guest, Tammi Rogers from OSU Extension Office. Tomma Bordenkircher, speaker, talked about heart disease and encouraged everyone to ask for copies of their lab work and x-rays to keep for a personal file. She asked the members to know their numbers, such as blood sugar,

blood pressure, and cholesterol, just to name a few, and to exercise, take control of what they eat and become responsible for their health. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in women in the United States. Heart disease kills almost twice the number of women as cancer does. The risk factors, symptoms, and the age at which heart disease becomes a big threat, can be different in women than in men. Chest pain is the most common symptom of a heart attack in both men and women. But other heart attack signs can include jaw pain, constant sweating or shortness of breath. A woman having a heart attack may feel like she has the flu and just can’t shake it, and she may never have any discomfort in the chest. Other symptoms include indigestion, sudden or overwhelming fatigue, and dizziness. Bordenkircher talked about having diabetes, open-heart surgery at age 45, and a stroke at age 50. She encouraged everyone to take control of their health now. Region 4 President Liz Herrell encouraged all members to attend the Region 4 Meeting and Individual Development (ID) and Young Careerist (YC) Competitions Saturday, Feb. 26, 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. at Schumaker Farms. Coshocton and Newark Locals will host. Jessi Marcincavage

will compete in the YC Competition, and Terri Scheck will compete in the ID Competition. The Region winner will compete in the state competition on April 9 in Columbus. Liz Herrell also announced an Equal Pay/Membership Drive dinner will be April 12 at 6:30 p.m. at a location to be announced. Keynote Speaker will be 2009 BPW/OH Young Careerist Winner, Megan Phillips. Phillips has two videos on You Tube, her winning 2009 YC speech, and the video “Remember the Ladies” which highlights the struggle for women to have the right to vote. Tomma Bordenkircher announced an Individual Development (ID) class March 16 and 23 in Cambridge, OH. Cost is $60 for BPW members and $70 for non-members. President Kim Gress reminded members the Administrative Professional Luncheon will be April 27 at 11:30 p.m. at Roberta’s. Coshocton BPW will meet March 21 at 6 p.m. Location to be announced. BPW, founded in 1919, promotes equity for all women in the workplace through advocacy, education and information. BPW is the leading advocate for millions of working women on work-life balance and workplace equity issues. Membership is open to men and women, employed and unemployed. For more information, contact Liz Herrell at 294-0199 or at [email protected].
