By Jennie Key [email protected] About 40 people turned out for a May 27 hearing with officials from Hamilton County and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency on new air emission levels at the Rumpke Sanitary Landfill in Colerain Township. Rumpke wants to install a ther- mal oxidizer, used at landfill gas recovery plants to control air pol- lution by cleaning gases at high temperatures before releasing the gases into the atmosphere. Jay Roberts, director of engi- neering and environmental affairs for Rumpke, said exhaust from two gas plants currently vents directly to the atmosphere. A third plant has an oxidizer. The new oxidizer will treat all three and will release a higher volume of exhaust through the unit into the atmosphere. Peter Sturdevant, environmen- tal compliance specialist for the Hamilton County Department of Environmental Services, said a thermal oxidizer is designed to limit odors coming from the methane collection plants operat- ed by Montauk Energy at the landfill. It may, in the process, emit additional carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides, leading to the request to raise limits for those compounds. Sturdevant said there should be an odor reduction when the oxi- dizer is operational. He could not quantify how much of an improvement it would be. Nancy Lindemood, who lives west of the landfill, asked if the ceiling on what’s permissible must be raised. She asked what the current emission levels are compared to current limits, but OEPA and county officials said they didn’t have that information available at the hearing. “I think we need to know actu- al versus allowable,” Lindemood said. “I am not convinced allowing a higher level of emissions is nec- essary.” Roberts said the company needs to raise the permissible lev- els because the oxidizer handles more gas. “This doesn’t mean we are recovering more gas, but we will be processing more gas to control emissions,” he said. “Plant one (where the new oxidizer is sched- uled for installation) is the oldest of the gas plants and it has two stacks. We are doing this specifi- cally to address the odor issue. “Our top priority is the health and safety of our employees and the community,” added Roberts. “The new thermal oxidizer will meet or be better than health- based standards. The air quality has been and will continue to be monitored around the site to ensure that the health of our neighbors is not adversely impacted.” Rumpke details plan to limit odors JENNIE KEY/STAFF A new thermal oxidizer, which is a pollution control device, will be installed at this Montauk gas recovery facility on the Rumpke Sanitary Landfill.

Colerain Township stepsinto the spotlight as thenewest subject of theImages of America seriespublished by Arcadia Pub-lishing.

“Images of America: Col-erain Township,” traces thedevelopment of the town-ship in photos, showing oldhomesteads, former publicservants, churches, schoolsand businesses as theyhave changed through theyears.

The first settlement ofthe township was in 1790,when John Dunlap and asmall group of settlers builta fort on the Great MiamiRiver. The township was arural farming area until the1950s, when subdivisionsbegan creeping out to thesuburbs.

Businesses and shoppingcenters followed the newhomes. From 1950 to 1960,the population quadrupled,and the township changedfrom its early rural roots.

This “Images of Ameri-ca” volume shows thechanges, and walks thereader back to a time whenColerain Avenue was a two-lane road with parallel park-ing and Northgate Mall wasan airport.

Colerain Township resi-dent Frank Scholle teamedup with fellow resident DonLinz to compile the book.

The men, both membersof the La Salle Council 5621Knights of Columbus,worked together at the startof the annual Taste of Col-erain food fest on thegrounds of the old Councilmeeting house, which isnow the Groesbeck branchof the Public Library ofCincinnati and HamiltonCounty.

Scholle is the historybuff, and Linz is an amateurphotographer, a good teamto set up a photo history ofthe community.

Linz said he is pleasedwith how the book turned

out and says it shows howthe township has changedover the years. He’s lived inthe township since 1942,and has seen those changesfor himself.

Scholle, who is a 51-yearresident of the township,said he borrowed photosfrom the Coleraine HistoricalSociety and anyone whohad them to get the bookcompleted.

“This took about a year,”he said. “Mel Blust was abig help with the ColerainAvenue photos.”

The K of C and the his-

torical society will split theproceeds from the book.

Scholle initiated the pop-ular Colerain historic calen-dars back in 1998, collect-ing old photos to illustratethe pages. He says he loveshistory, and the book is justa natural outgrowth.

He says he started with240 photos, of which Arca-dia Publishing rejected 62and that’s when Schollebegan soliciting residentsand members for their oldpictures.

“I think we got somegood ones,” he said.

TAPYOURIRAPENALTY-FREEThere are not many situations where you can spend the

money from your IRA or Roth IRA accounts before you are59 ½ without suffering the dreaded 10% penalty. But, sincethe Taxpayers Relief Act was passed back in 1997, first timehomebuyers are allowed to use up to $10,000 of their IRAmoney toward a home purchase, penalty-free.This is good news not only for first time buyers, but also forclose relatives. If you want to help your spouse, children,grandchildren or parents buy a home, you can also use your IRAsavings for them, providing they are first-time buyers.

“First time buyer” has a broader definition than you mightthink. According to the government, a first time buyer issomeone who hasn’t owned a home in the last two years. So,technically, you could be a first time buyer several times overthe span of your lifetime, but you can only use your IRA moneyonce in your life without paying the penalty.

If you are thinking of buying or helping a relative with ahome purchase, be sure to consult a professional tax consultantto see if you qualify for a penalty-free withdrawal.

Talk to valedictorians ortop high school graduates,and a pattern begins toemerge: “start early, workhard, motivate yourself.”

Those have been watch-words for Mount HealthyHigh School 2010 valedic-torian Brandon Okel.

And they have paid off.“I have been working

toward this goal since fresh-man year,” he said. “It wasmy top goal.”

Okel, the son of Bev Okeland Steve Okel, had topacademic performance ashis top goal, but he foundtime to enjoy the workalong the way.

He was on the varsitygolf team, and has playedbasketball, baseball, andwas a member of theNational Honor Society,Beta Club, Key Club, theGerman Honor Society andwas a drummer for themarching band, concertband and pep band.

Okel is headed for theUniversity of Cincinnati tostudy architectural engi-neering, where he has agood head start. Thanks topostsecondary options, he isleaving high school with 33college credit hours.

Okel said the challenge

at the college level is tomotivate yourself. He’slooking forward to the inde-pendence college brings.

“It will be nice to bedoing work because youwant to do it, not for gradesto get into college,” he said.“Now, it will be learning forlearning’s sake.”

Okel identified twostrong influences besideshis parents as he reflects onhis high school years.

He says his youth pastor,Alton Alexander at theVineyard, was a stronginfluence during his highschool years.

He also credits MountHealthy’s new footballcoach Arvie Crouch, wholetting him work as a stu-dent assistant in his senioryear.

In fact, while Okel gradu-ates from Mount HealthyHigh School this spring, hewill still return to the districtthis fall. He will be coachingmiddle school football forthe district.

“I love coaching,” hesaid. “It’s a chance to teachkids to succeed. If all myseventh-graders remain eli-gible for the entire season, Iwill consider that a winning

season. Football is a greattool to help kids get readyfor life.”

Okel confesses he’d loveto coach football as a career,but he’s pursuing the engi-neering degree as a fallbackposition.

“It’s good to have abackup plan,” he said.

His speech is ready. He’sready. When asked what’sthe most memorable highschool moment, he saysthis is it.

“Graduation. That’s whatI think I will remember themost. I am excited to moveon to what’s next.”

Mount Healthy High School sophomore Vince Turnage, left, exchanges the batonto senior Devin Brown during the 4x200 meter relay at the Division I RegionalChampionships at Welcome Stadium in Dayton May 28. Mount Healthy finishedsixth in that event in a time of 1:29.93.

By Tony [email protected]

Several members of theColerain High School trackteams performed at theDivision I Regional Meet,which was May 26 and 28at Welcome Stadium inDayton.

Neither squad had astate-qualifier, but LadyCard Sammie Fields, a jun-ior, finished 7th in the highjump (5-02.00) to earn aspot on the podium.

“All year she could clear4-10.00 (easily), but shecouldn’t get to five feet con-sistently,” co-head coachMark Bierkan said. “Shedidn’t clear 5 feet until dis-tricts.”

Fields won a districtchampionship after record-ing a personal-best (5-03.00).

Teammate Vicki Kinne,also a junior, finished 10thin the high jump (5-00.00)at regionals.

On the track for the LadyCards, senior Krista Whar-ton finished 16th in prelim-inaries of the 100 hurdles(17.55). She was runner-upat districts.

“She came out of theblock good through onehurdle but then (lost herfooting a bit),” Bierkan said.“It’s such a technical event,and there’s no time torecover. Krista was a littledown about (her perform-ance), but she was a four-year letter winner. She camein as a freshman andlearned the hurdles and

filled a void there for us forfour years.”

A potential four-year let-ter winner is Kristen Seiler,whose freshman campaignhas amazed Bierkan. Seilerwas a district runner-up inthe 1,600 and finished fifthin the 800 to miss regionalsby just five-hundredths of asecond; she recorded a2:23.90, while West Chestersophomore Yasmin Mof-takhar registered a 2:23.85.Seiler finished sixth atregionals in the 1600(5:21.48).

“It’s actually prettyamazing,” Bierkan said.

“Most good (mile runners)run cross country, but she’sa volleyball player. She saidit would take her six-and-a-half or seven minutes to runa mile (at the beginning ofthe season), but she ran itthe first time in 5:26. It’sbeen amazing to watch.She’s had some training,but she’s doing it all on puretalent.”

Seiler – along with seniorKristen Wells and juniorsSam Work and AllisonSteinbeck – also helped the4x800 relay team to region-als, which finished 15th(9:58.81).

For the boys’ team, sen-ior Jeffrey Denny qualifiedin the 1,600 and 3,200. Hefinished ninth (4:33.07)and 15th (10:28.73) inthose events, respectively.

“Over the last year, he’sdropped more than 20 sec-onds in the mile and morethan 40 seconds in the3,200,” Bierkan said.

Also qualifying in the3,200 was junior CraigSulken; he finished 14th(10:27.31).

“They’re our two biggestpoint-scorers this season,”Bierkan said. “Everyonelooks up to those two. I’ll be

sad to see Jeffrey leave.”The Cardinals also quali-

fied two relays to regionals– the 4x200 (comprised ofsophomores Andre Howelland Chris Mimes, juniorTyler Williams and fresh-man Finest Johnson) andthe 4x400 (comprised ofHowell, Mimes and seniorsAllen Belton and LonnellWilliams).

Both relays, which fin-ished fourth at districts,placed 11th in the regionalpreliminaries in times of1:31.19 and 3:28.33.

Bierkan, who co-coacheswith Jeff Woltz, said bothteams had a solid overallyear.

The boys’ team finishedthird at the Greater MiamiConference Championshipand placed eighth at dis-tricts, where it totaled 38points.

La Salle (170), Elder,Winton Woods (72), OakHills (62) and MountHealthy (52) finished firstthrough fifth, respectively.

The girls’ team finishedninth at the league meet butrebounded for a sixth-placefinish at districts. The LadyCards (45) tied with Fair-field and Hamilton and fin-ished behind McAuley (98),St. Ursula (57), Seton (50),Hamilton (49) and LakotaEast (47).

Both Colerain squadsreturn the bulk of theirteams next season.

“With how young weare, we’re very excited,”Bierkan said. “The futurelooks bright on both sides.”

The McAuley track teamwon a district championshipfor the first time in morethan 15 years in 2009 andthe Mohawks repeated the

accomplishment in 2010.“We’re a very well-

rounded team,” head coachKim Flynn said. “We scoredin 14 events and had somestandout performances.”

Sophomore Danielle Pfeiferwon district championships in

the 800-meter run and the1,600-meter run and wasalso part of the district cham-pion 4x800-meter relay,along with Jordan Thiery,Sarah Pierce and Emily York.

Senior Lundyn Thomp-son was the other big stand-out, as she finished secondin the discus and won a dis-trict title in the shotput. Shealso broke the school’s shot-put record this season, arecord that had been stand-ing since the 1980s.

Other top performers wereKerry Caddell, who finishedsecond in the 200-meterdash, and Taylor Bove, whowas second in the long jump.Pierce is also a strong dis-tance runner and finishedthird in the 800-meter run.

At the regional meet, the4x800-meter relay fell justshort of qualifying for state,with a fifth-place finish.Thompson also finishedfifth in the discus.

Flynn said the team this

season is comparable to theone the Mohawks had lastseason overall, as the twoteams had nearly identicalscores at the district meet.The only difference is in thestrengths of each team.

The Mohawks are muchstronger in the distance raceswith more depth this seasonand also in the long jump, asfreshman Bove has been astandout in that event.Freshman Rebecca “Kansas”Ashton has been impressivein the hurdles and finishedfourth in the 100-meter hur-dles at the district meet.Thiery and juniors Jen Beckand Emily York have beenbig contributors in the relays.

The team has had a lot ofpersonal records at the end ofthe season. Thompson willbe especially difficult toreplace, and the other senioris a pole vault standout,Lizzie Helpling. McAuley willbring back all their competi-tors from the track events.

The St. Xavier HighSchool track team sentnumerous qualifiers to theDivision I Regional MeetMay 26 and 28 Dayton butwas unable to advance any-one to state.

“It didn’t go well,” St. Xhead coach Oliver Masonsaid. “We didn’t do as wellas we would’ve liked to.”

Seniors Chris Hansonand Cory Ochs finished fifthin the 1,600 and the 300hurdles, respectively. Han-son (4:26.08) finished lessthan a second shy of state,as Mason senior Matt Kahl(4:25.34) placed fourth.Ochs (38.61), who qualifiedfor state last year, finished16-hundreths of a secondbehind Springfield seniorAlex Gaskins (38.45).

Senior Eric Gruenbacher

(9:52.66) and junior RyanSchneiber (52-10.00) fin-ished sixth in the 3,200 andshot put, respectively, whilesenior Michael Archbold waseighth in the 400 (51.14).

The 4x800 relay team –comprised of Hanson andjuniors Andrew Bachmann,Shomo Das and RobbieFlanigan – finished seventh(8:06.83).

The 4x100, 4x200 and4x400 relays did notadvance past preliminaries.

District title 1st in 15 years for McAuley

Page 9: northwest-press-060210

When President Obamaannounced that he wanted tospeak at a high school commence-ment, he looked for a school thatprepares students well for collegeand careers.

Any Ohio career center couldhave fit the bill.

Called Joint Vocational SchoolDistricts, these public schools wereformed in the 1960s and ‘70s tooffer technical programs to Ohiostudents in a practical and cost-effective way.

Groups of school districtsjoined these regional JVSDs; jun-iors and seniors could choose tocomplete their high schooling atthe affiliated JVSD or in satelliteJVSD programs at their school toreceive specialized career instruc-tion and skills.

Some districts, such as Cincin-nati Public Schools, developedcareer-technical programs withintheir district.

For nearly four decades, Ohiostudents have learned dozens ofcareers, from animal science tohealth care to robotics to cosme-

tology to dentalassisting to fire-fighting. Inmany programsgraduates werecertified in theircareer field-or atleast yearsahead of otherhigh schoolgraduates enter-ing that field.

But some-thing happenedto JVSDs – by

now more accurately called careercenters – as we entered the 21stcentury.

Always closely aligned withlocal business, school leaders sawthat even as they learned highlevel skills, successful studentsneeded the ability and enthusiasmto keep learning.

The numbers of career-techni-cal students who went directly tocollege skyrocketed and the per-centages of college-bound gradu-ates now rival those schoolsranked high in state standards. At

area career centers, 50 to 80 per-cent of students go directly topost-secondary education.Through dual credit options andarticulation agreements, many ofthose students finish high schoolhaving already earned collegecredit.

The skills needed to be success-ful as adults have changed aswell. All high school graduatesneed to be technologically savvy;they need to have strong problem-solving skills, they must be able tocollaborate with their co-workers,they must understand the globalmarketplace and they must beable to think critically.

Excellent K-12 school districtsunderstand this and outstandingteachers incorporate these skillsdaily in the classroom. Career-technical education is an ideal set-ting for learning these skills; stu-dents work together in a hands-onenvironment each day, solvingthe kinds of problems they’ll facein the workforce.

Career-technical education pro-vides opportunities for adults who

want to change careers, too.Thousands of displaced, unem-ployed, and underemployed work-ers who faced uncertain futures inrecent years are now working innew careers thanks to the short-term, high-impact programs avail-able at area career centers.

The next time you eat a finemeal in a restaurant, are cared forby a health care professional, asksomeone to develop a Web site foryour business, talk with yourchild’s teacher, or fly on a com-mercial jetliner, chances areyou’ve been served by a careercenter graduate.

They come to us as sopho-mores who have a strong sense ofwhat they want to do with theirfuture, and they leave prepared forcollege, careers and life.

Immigration reformEighty-nine undocumented

students will be graduating fromhigh schools across the UnitedStates this spring.

These students were brought tothe United States by their parentsas small children. They know theU.S.A. as their home, but havebeen branded as illegal aliens.

They want to be like the rest oftheir friends making plans to go tocollege or work, to look to thefuture as citizens of the U.S.A. Butbecause of our broken immigra-tion laws, these students willnever be able to become citizenswithout a pathway to citizenshipthat does not exist for them today.

Now is the time for our legisla-tors to legislate for a comprehen-sive equitable immigration reform.

Health care is ChristianIf it wasn’t so serious, it would

be hilarious. These people, like Dr.Richard Fry, either can’t read or arejust too selfish to try to help otherpeople. When they claim that the“health care legislation” is notChristian, they ignore Jesus Christ’steachings in the eighth beatitudeand “love God with all your heartand your neighbor as yourself.”

Mr. Fry, Jesus wasn’t kidding.This is Christian legislation, thegreatest since the freeing of theslaves by President Lincoln. Redthe Bible.

Trustees irresponsibleI spoke at the May 24 Green

Township Board of Trustees meet-ing regarding the clearly politicalselection of an unqualified individ-ual for a $50,000 per year execu-tive assistant job. That person isJennifer Triantafilou, the wife ofthe Hamilton County RepublicanParty chairman.

After offering nothing morethan platitudes and diversionarystatements, Trustee David Linnen-berg (who interviewed no candi-dates) shut off further discussionof the matter.

Despite township documentsindicating that Triantafilou hasonly nine months of (semi) appli-cable work experience, that shehas an associates degree – when

her resume lists none – and thatshe didn’t even make the list ofthe top four experienced candi-dates, she got the job.

The trustees claim that Tri-antafilou is doing a fine job (sur-prise!) and that anyone else whoquestions their applicant selectionprocess is just beating a deadhorse. In reality, the trustees real-ize the weakness of their justifica-tions and find that silencing criticsis a last defense.

My investigations haverevealed that this political hiring isapparently only the tip of the ice-berg in a long line of irresponsiblebehavior. It’s easy to waste thetaxpayers’ money when you faceno effective oversight.

Willke responds to claimAnn Thompson in Viewpoints

states that in the new federalhealth insurance bill, she claimsthat even if abortion is forbidden,“There always will be abortions,the only difference is will it besafe, legal, rare or illegal?”

But let’s look at Poland’s 40million people. Abortion had beenlegal and state-paid for 44 yearsand averaged around 150,000 peryear. In 1993, under the newdemocratic government, a lawwas passed forbidding abortion.By 2005, the total number ofabortions had dropped to 225.

When the change was pro-posed, the media, United Nationsagencies, Planned Parenthood andothers, loudly predicted that sucha law would only drive abortionunderground. It did not happen.To be specific, the number of mis-carriages reported in 1955 underthe old law was 60,000. By 2003,it was 41,000. Deaths due topregnancy and births droppedfrom 70 in 1990 to 24 in 2005.Newborns dying after birth in1990 were 19, in 2005 were 6.7.

And so here is a modern west-ern nation of 40 million peopleafter four decades of state-paidabortion on demand. The law in1993 made abortion illegal. Noneof the dire predictions of back-alley abortions materialized. Theactual affects were almost noabortions, healthy women, greaterinfant survival.

Gardening offers many benefitsincluding the opportunity toincrease physical activity and eatnutritious vegetables.

However, there are someimportant tips to remember to staysafe and healthy this gardeningseason.

Get vaccinated• All adults should get a

tetanus vaccination every 10years. Tetanus lives in the soil andenters the body through breaks inthe skin. While using sharp toolsto dig in the dirt, and handlingplants with sharp points, you areparticularly prone to tetanus infec-tions during gardening season.

• Before you start gardeningthis season, make sure yourtetanus/diphtheria vaccination isup to date.

Dress to protect• Wear long sleeves, wide-

brimmed hats, sunglasses andsunscreen with SPF 15 or higherfor protection from the sun.

• Protect yourself from dis-eases like West Nile virus andLyme disease caused by mosqui-toes and ticks by using insectrepellent containing DEET, andalso wear long-sleeved shirts andpants tucked in your socks.

• Wear safety goggles,earplugs, gloves, sturdy shoes andlong pants as appropriate whenusing lawn mowers, othermachinery, chemicals or sharptools.

Put safety first• Follow instructions and

warning labels on chemicals andgarden equipment.

• Make sure equipment isworking properly and sharpentools carefully to reduce the riskfor injury.

• Pregnant women should beparticularly careful to wash handsafter gardening and before eatingfruits or vegetables from a gardento reduce the risk of toxoplasmainfection.

Heat-relatedillness

• Even shortperiods of timein high tempera-tures can causeserious healthproblems. Moni-tor your activi-ties and time inthe sun to loweryour risk for heat-related illness.

• Drink plenty of waterthroughout the day. Don’t waituntil you’re thirsty to drink.

• Avoid drinking liquids thatcontain alcohol or large amountsof sugar; these actually cause youto lose more body fluid.

• Take breaks often and stopworking if you experience breath-lessness or muscle soreness.

• Pay attention to signs ofheat-related illness, includingextremely high body temperature,headache, rapid pulse, dizziness,nausea, confusion or uncon-sciousness.Tim Ingram is the health commissioner

How grown up are we?At old-time county fairs

young men sought todemonstrate their physicalstrength by swinging a hugemallet and striking a mat.

It propelled a weightupward. If it hit and rang thebell, it was evidence theywere macho. What aresome ways to measure howdeveloped we are inside?

“The test of a psycholog-ically mature person, andtherefore spiritually mature,will be found in his or hercapacity to handle what onemight call the Triple As:anxiety, ambiguity andambivalence,” writes Dr.James Hollis in “Creating ALife.”

Anxiety, as we well know,is the agitation and stress wefeel when we anticipateimpending risk, danger,catastrophe or misfortune.The future threat may be realor imagined, internal orexternal, but always uncom-fortable. Recall how we feelwhen called upon to speak toa crowd.

Ambiguity is a confusinggrayness. It flows from ourego’s desire for clarity andsecurity. Yogi Berra createsambiguity when he advises,“If you come to a fork in theroad – take it!”

We want life, God, andthe world to be in a perma-nently knowable condition.The younger or less maturewe are the more we becomefrustrated by the absence ofclarity. The older and moremature we become doesn’tbanish the ambiguities andanxieties of life, but we aremore able to tolerate themas part of life.

Our experiences andmaturation render us morehumble, understanding of

the human condition, andfamiliar with mysteries.

Ambivalence is experi-encing contradictory feelingsor attitudes toward the sameperson, object, event or situ-ation.

Conflicting feelings areoften strong toward parentssince they are agents of bothdiscipline and affection.Spouses may also noticesporadic love/hate senti-ments toward the other. Thepolarity of such feelings canbe temporarily disturbingwhen they occur.

Some find them so trou-blesome to admit that they

often repress one of thepoles of the tension.

There are other kinds ofambivalence besides rela-tional ones – such as uncer-tainty or indecisivenessabout a certain course ofaction, ambivalence about ajob, religion, sibling, etc.

Children at first needunequivocal messages asthey begin to grow. Beforematurity we are not in pos-session of capacities fordealing with the ambiguitiesand ambivalences of life.

We encounter them aspainful contradictions. Evenat a tender age we experi-

ence both gratification andfrustrations from the sameparents.

At first we attempt tomanage our ambiguity andambivalence with variousstrategies, many of themunhealthy. We may bluntour feelings, repress, distractourselves, dissociate, deny,and later on develop addic-tions or personality traits.

Eventually we’re meantto learn healthier ways. Welearn to recognize and holdthe tensions between oppo-sites such as love/hate, darkside/good side, vindictive-ness/forgiveness, and

choose to acknowledge butdiscipline the undesirable.

We come to see we areimperfect humans living inam imperfect world, yetstruggling for wholeness asa person. Life containsmany rich experiences aswell as paradox and chal-lenging mysteries.

In the midst of living ourquestions, which are oftenenveloped in anxiety, ambi-guity and ambivalence, poetRainer Maria Rilke offerspractical advice: “Bear withpatience all that is unre-solved in your heart, and tryto love the questions them-selves, as if they were roomsyet to enter or books writtenin a foreign language. Don’tdig for answers that can’t be

given youyet: youc a n n o tlive themnow. Foreverythingmust belived. Livethe ques-tions now,p e r h a p st h e n ,someday,you will gradually, withoutnoticing, live into theanswer.”

It willbe aLebanesedinner thisS u n d a yfor mys o n ,Shane, toce lebratehis birth-day.

I haveto askwhat he

wants, but I’m pretty suretabbouleh and fried kibbeewill be requested. I’ll bemaking stuffed grape vineleaves, too, since the wildgrape leaves are the perfectsize right now.

I wish I had some of Joeand Mary Lou Zarig’shomemade Lebanese flat-bread to serve with it – Joeand Mary Lou are greatLebanese cooks and bakers.

I’ll also make somebaklava. I love preparingmy family’s Lebaneserecipes and I can never getenough. That’s why you’llfind me at the St. Anthony

of Padua’s Lebanese festivalSunday, June 6, from noonto 8 p.m. The church is onVictory Parkway.

This festival is fun, withrides, Lebanese dancing andauthentic Lebanese food. Ilove everything they pre-pare! Get details at 513-961-0120.

My mom’s tabboulehTraditionally, this is

served with wild grapevineleaves to act as a scoop, orleaf lettuce, or flatbread.

This is a real “go totaste” recipe, wonderful as amain meal, stuffed into pitapockets for lunch, or as aversatile, healthy side dish.

Tabbouleh is a healthysalad using bulgur wheat(great for lowering choles-terol and contains vitaminE) and an abundance ofsummer vegetables. It’s allthe rage in local delis, and isexpensive to buy.

1 cup bulgur wheat4-6 tomatoes, chopped

1 bunch green onions,chopped

1 bunch parsley,chopped

1 bunch radishes,chopped (optional but good)

1-2 regular cucumbers,peeled and chopped, or 1English cucumber, chopped

1 bell pepper, chopped2-3 teaspoons cumin, or

to tasteSeveral sprigs mint

leaves, chopped (opt.)Several sprigs basil

leaves, chopped (opt.)Salt and pepper to taste1⁄4 cup canola oil, or to

taste

Place wheat in bowl andrinse under cool water threetimes. Leave about 1⁄4 inch ofwater after the third rinse ontop of the wheat to soften it.

Let sit for 15 minutes oruntil water is absorbed.Squeeze to drain anyremaining liquid out.

Meanwhile, mix yourvegetables:

Add all vegetables inlarge bowl, mixing gently.

Add cumin, mint, basil andsalt and pepper. Add wheat,and mix well.

Add oil, a little at a time,and mix. Taste for season-ings. Add lemon juice ifdesired.

Serves six to eight as amain meal, 10 as a firstcourse.

Tips from Rita’s KitchenBulgur wheat is some-

times called cracked wheat.It looks a little bit like

cous cous and is creamy totan in color. It comes in sev-eral grinds.

I like the fine or mediumgrind. Some folks like to puta squeeze of lemon juice inthe salad.

parents to come back after 48 hours for a

follow-up visit. Both mom and baby will

receive a comprehensive assessment by an
