Hijazen, who’s never been to Cincinnati before the trip, said that he felt very happy and blessed to be able to come here and learn how schools in the United States and Cincinnati teach their students so he can take that back home and im- prove the schools there. He added that during his visit, “I feel hope to help the stu- dents. ...

Holy Land teachers have‘hope’ after Cincinnati visitBy Leah [email protected]

Four out of six Madeira CityCouncil members’ spots are upfor grabs on the Nov. 5 ballot.

Incumbents Mike Steur andTim Dicke are running for re-election, while four candidatesare challenging for those seatsand the seats of CouncilmanRichard Staubach and MayorRick Brasington.

Challengers are Tom Ash-more, Chris Hilberg, NancySpencer and Traci Bayer-Theis.

Among the top concerns aredeveloping the downtown corealong Miami Avenue, connect-ing neighborhoods to that busi-ness district and the city’s fi-nances.

Ashmore said that it’s a con-sensus that Madeira needs an-other restaurant, which willopen in the former railroad de-pot building that was previouslyoccupied byChooChoo’s restau-rant.

Ashmore added that the bud-get, like those of neighboringmunicipalities, has sufferedlosses, but the future councilwill need to be able to maintainthe quality of police, fire androad maintenance that it’s pro-vided up until now.

“Roads are beginning to getbad, and they’re projecting that(repaving) might be back on a25-year cycle, when roadsshould be repaved at least every17 to 18 years,” he said.

“We need to be able to getmore life out of our roads.”

Along with roads are side-walks, and Dicke said there’sbeenacallfromresidentstocon-

nect neighborhoods and down-town together to make the citymore walkable, which he saidwould be beneficial to business-es there.

“I hear a lot that it’s hard forbusinesses who want to move into find space to rent inMadeira,and businesses that are here aredoing well,” he said.

“Surveys (from residents)rank No. 1 that they want to beable to walk toMadeira’s core.”

former Kutol property onCamargoRoad,whichwasconsidered for an apart-ment complex last year, isalso a space that can con-tribute to the city’s devel-He also said that the

opment.“I want to make down-

town Madeira a destina-tion where people comeand bring their families,eat, shop and gather,” hesaid.

“It gives life to thedowntown area.”

Part of the downtowndevelopment are two his-toric homes that were un-der consideration to bemoved because there wasa potential buyer for theland on which they are lo-cated.

One home was donatedto the city, and both needrepairs. Spencer said thateven though the land canbe sold and redevelopedshe doesn’t think thehomes should be movedfrom their current spots.

She added that thehomes retain historiccharm. She also disagreeswith not allowing an openbid process of selling theland.

“If City Council decid-ed to move the propertiesand make the land under-neath available it shouldbe an open bid because it’scommunity property,” shesaid.

Steur said that whetheror not the homes weremovedhewantsthehomesto be preserved.

He added that if sellingthe land and moving themmeant the city couldmain-tain themitmightbeabet-ter option.

He said that if movingthemwill generate moneythatcanbeusedtodevelopdowntownmoreandmain-tain the homes then mov-ing them could work.

“(City Council) willhave to have money to notjust paint the homes, butreinforce the founda-tions,” he said. “...Weneedto figure out the best wayto use the houses and stillpreserve them, like withthe train depot.”

Bayer-Theis not onlywants to make the citymore connectedwith side-walks,butalsowith itsciti-zens.

She said that as some-one who is a third-genera-tion Madeira residentwhosemother still lives inthe city, connectinggener-ations is important to unit-ing everyone inMadeira.

“I feel like bridginggaps is really important,”she said.

“I grew up with manyof (the senior citizens) asrole models. I want tomake sure those gems ofthe community are beingheardand thingsarebeingdone to keep them here.”

Residents of Syca-more Township’s neigh-borhood Highpoint aretiring quickly of the ac-tivity they’re seeing ontheir streets.

Residents turned outin force to the recentBoard of Trustees meet-ing to petition the boardand the Hamilton Coun-ty Sheriff’s Office to dosomething about thecrime they said they’rewitnessing outside theirhomes.

Sarah Tiggrett, a life-long resident of theneighborhood, said shesees police in the neigh-borhood every night torespond to calls, butdoesn’t seem to noticeany type of change.

“It’s a nuisance alonethat you can’t sit out inyour front yard,” shesaid.

She added that she’sseen people throwingrocks at cars and peoplebeing shot at with pelletguns.

Other residents add-ed to her list, sayingthey’ve seen whatthey’re sure are drug

deals and use on a regu-lar basis.

PatriciaWhitaker, an-other resident, said hercar was hit with a pelletgun, but when policeshowed up, they askedquestions but didn’t filea report.

“The police need tostart making a better at-tempt,” she said.

Hamilton CountySheriff’sLt.ChrisKette-man said that although itwill take time to seesome major change thedepartment needs com-munity involvement.

He added the depart-ment and the townshipare starting a neighbor-hood Block Watch pro-gram, where residentswill meet and discusswhat they’ve seen goingon in their neighbor-hood, as well as discusspossible ways to curb it.

“You have a right tofeel secure in your resi-dence,” he said. “... Youare our eyes and ears,and we will have a verystrict policy.”

A look at the two Ham-ilton County issues on theNov. 5 ballot:

Hamilton CountyIssue 1

»What it’s about: Ten-year levy for the PublicLibrary of Cincinnati andHamilton County

»What itwoulddo:Thelevy is expected to bringin $17.8 million a year, athird of the library's $57million revenue.

»How things are now:The library is in thefourth year of a five-yearlevy that brings in thesame $17.8 million it isasking voters to continueproviding.

»How much it willcost: $30 a year on a$100,000 home. It will notraise your taxes, ifpassed.

» Argument for: Thelevy would allow the li-brary to do long-termplanning and continue toprovide thesameservicesit does now. Without itsome branches wouldclose, hours could be cutelsewhere and therewould be fewer new ma-terial purchases.

» Argument against:There is no organized op-position.Voting ‘no’wouldlower taxes on a $100,000home by $30 a year.

»Who’s for it: In 2009,voters passed the levy

with 73 percent of thevote.

»Who’s against it: Noorganized opposition.

»Websites formore in-formation: Learn moreabout the levy here:www.voteforcincyli-brary.org/ andmoreaboutlibrary here: http://www.cincinnatili-brary.org/

Hamilton CountyIssue 2

»What it’s about: Five-year renewal of a 0.46-mill levy for the Cincin-nati Zoo & Botanical Gar-den

»What it would do:Money can be used onlyfor animal feeding andcare, horticulture needsand buildingmaintenanceand repair.

»How things are now:The levy brings in about$6.7million thisyear,usedfor the purposes listedabove.

»How much it willcost: $10.60 a year on a$100,000 home. The levywon’t raise taxes.

» Argument for: Thezoo says it hasbeenagoodsteward of tax dollars,with the levy now ac-counting for about 22 per-cent of its annual budget,down from 41 percent in1993. The zoo provides a$143 million annual eco-nomic impact to the re-

gion, according to a Uni-versity of Cincinnatistudy.

» Argument against:There is no organized op-position.Voting ‘no’wouldlower taxes on a $100,000home by $10.60 a year.

Crime pre-vention special-ist Tom Wagnerwith the Mont-gomery PoliceDepartment re-cently conduct-

ed a presentation on socialmedia at the high school.

“A few years ago, we wereworried about Internet preda-tors,” said Wagner. “Now weare finding the kids them-selves are creating their ownheartbreak by putting them-selves in bad situations.”

Wagnerco-developedapro-gram in2005 called “Caught inthe Web: Don’t Let It HappenTo You” in 2005.

The program has beenmodified to include new com-puter applications that havebeen developed in recentyears such as Twitter, Snap-chat and Vine.

It’s stressing awareness,saidWagner, adding that often

photos posted on the Webaren’tnecessarily takenbythesubjects themselves.

“Having those images andvideospostedonlinecancausesevere humiliation and awhole host of other issues,” hesaid.

It’s being aware of how po-tentially damaging photos canhave an impact on being ac-cepted toacollege, receivingascholarshiporevenfutureem-ployment, said Indian HillHigh School Assistant Princi-pal Jen Ulland.

“(Students) have to makegood choices in their posts,”said Ulland.

“The main message wasthink about your actions.”

Indian Hill senior J.T.Meert and sophomore ClaireBrown saidmany students arealready aware of what can po-tentiallyhappenwith informa-tion posted online but still feelthe presentation was benefi-cial.

“Basically, double think ev-erything you post,” saidBrown, who is a resident ofKenwood.

INDIAN HILL — For the sec-ond consecutive year, IndianHill High School football hascome on strong late in the yearunder CoachMike Theisen.

Battling injuries andscheme changes in 2012, theBraves picked up their onlytwo wins in October.

This season, Indian Hillovercame an 0-3 start to winfour of their next five goinginto their Cincinnati HillsLeague showdown with Wyo-ming.

Along the way, Mariemont,Deer Park, Reading and Fin-neytown went down and Ma-deira escaped with a narrowvictory.

The total package appearedtobeunleashedonSeniorNightOct. 18 against Finneytownwhen Matt Thompson ran fortwo scores, threw another toWill McClure and Jimmy Soli-mine ran for a season-high 122yards in place of starter BenBrendamour.

“The O-line did a heck of ajob and Jimmy ran the ballwell,” Thompson said. “We dideverything we could do right.”

Thompson’s rushing scoreswere his first of the year. He’salso had more scoring passeslate in the year despite notthrowing the ball as much.

“Shay Bahner andMac Car-rier have been really good justlike last year,” Thompson said.“WillMcClure’s steppedupandcarried the load a little bit. BenBrendamour and Jimmy Soli-mine have done a heck of a jobrunning the ball.”

Thompson has the classictall quarterback build and islooking to play in college. Hecurrently holds an offer fromDavidson.

Nearly a foot shorter thanThompson is Solimine, whomay give Indian Hill more op-tions should Brendamour not

be available.The short, but thick runner

last toted the loaf atMoeller asa freshman. He eventuallytransferred and focused on la-crosse. Fortunately for CoachTheisen, he returned his low-to-the-ground skills to the grid-

iron.“I was talked into it,” Soli-

mine said. “I knew it was mysenior year and I didn’t want tohave any regrets.”

Against Finneytown, theonly time you could see Soli-mine was when he was squirt-ing throughahole andburstingintodaylight todishoutpunish-ment.

“I’m just shifty,” Soliminesaid. “Ihidebehindmylinemanandget the jobdone.Theydon’tknow what’s coming.”

Overall, it’s been a pleasingfew weeks for Theisen and theBraves. The schedule endswith toughgames againstWyo-ming and Taylor, but it’s beenquite a ride.

READING — Mount NotreDame High School’s field hock-ey teaminchedcloser to theirul-timate goal of a state title.

On Oct. 22, the Cougars won2-0 with seniors Holly CarotaandMegan Goslee scoring.

“Those two aren’t even ourleading scorers, but when weneeded a goal, they pulledthrough,” coach Beth Vonder-brink said.

The win put MND in the dis-trict finals for the first time infive years. Back then, Vonder-brink’s assistant, Don Johnsonwas the Cougars coach. Vonder-brink played on MND’s 2004state tournament team.

“2008 was the last time wemade it to the Elite Eight,” Von-derbrink said.

The district final was Oct. 26at St. Ursula against Ursuline.MoriahFlynnscoredearly in thesecond half to give MND a 1-0win over the Lions and put themin the state semifinals at UpperArlington against the ColumbusAcademy/Bishop Wattersonwinner on Nov. 1.

Of 10 Cougar seniors, eightstart. Senior Rachel Kraimerand junior Flynn have beenVon-derbrink’s top scorers, with sen-ior Goslee and junior AshleyWittman leading in assists

Many of the MND seniorshave been around the programfor a number of years like Gos-

lee, Mackenzie Feathers, AbbyReno, Andrea Taney and SarahSikora.

“There’s a handful that havebeen playing since their sopho-more year on varsity,” Vonder-brink said. “I’ve had them forthree years so it’s been a lot offun tosee themgrow.They’reallcharacters, that’s for sure.”

Also helping the Cougars runthe table in the Southwest OhioFieldHockeyLeagueat7-0were11 juniors who have made goodstrides.

Defense has been crucial thisseason for the Cougars with 12shutouts.

“They’re all seniors backthere andwe have two excellentgoalies who have really im-proved,” Vonderbrink said. “Wehave five senior defenders backthere. Their hard work has paidoff.”

The two goalkeepers are ju-niors Ally Benz and CarolineGallo.BenzmovedMNDintothedistrict finalswith theshutoutofFairmont.

“She does things that no onein the state can do, but maybeI’m a little biased,” Vonderbrinksaid “She can do split dives, shecan do everything.”

The game has changed somesince Vonderbrink’s Cougardays, but the MND mentalityhas not.

“It’s a little bit different sincemore teams are on turf and thatchanges the game up,” Vonder-brink said.

BLUEASH—Sportswis-dom calls a tie kissingyour sister.

Butwhataboutyourac-tual sister school?

Ursuline Academy andSt.UrsulaAcademy–bothunder the auspices of Ur-suline nuns who werefounded more than 570years ago by Italian St.AngelaMerici – sharea lotof traits.

Among them,member-ship in the Girls GreaterCatholic League, whereboth achieve regular andremarkable success.

Since 1990, the twohave combined for 28Ohio Division I state teamtitles in golf, volleyballand swimming alone.

Many others athletes –including current Ursu-line senior Mevish Safdarin tennis andSt.Ursula ju-nior Annie Heffernan intrack and cross country –own individual statechampionships.

So when the twoschoolsmet for theOct. 23field hockey regionalsemifinals – a sportwhereSUAwon the 2010 state ti-tle and UA reached the fi-nal four last season – per-haps only a visitor fromMars would have beensurprised with the result.

Ursuline won 1-0 on afirst half goal by juniorforwardAnaGonzalezDelRey. Senior goalie KatiePolson anchored the de-fense that protected thelead, staving off repeatedpenalty corners by theBulldogs.

“My teammates set me

up for it perfectly,” saidLoveland resident Gonza-lez Del Rey of her goal.“It’s awesome, the bestfeeling in the world, espe-cially against (SUA).They’re such good com-petitors.”

Gonzalez Del Rey be-gan playing field hockeyher freshman year, fol-lowing in the footsteps ofher older sister. She saidthe goal came with somerestraint on the advice ofher coach.

“(Freshman forward)Jillian Shivemade a beau-tiful cross tome and I justtipped it and it went rightback into the back of thecage,” she said. “We allwant to do those big hitsand just a little tip is allyou need.”

Lions coach Elli Wor-kum agreed.

“I’ve been talking toher all year about notswinging hard,” she said.“Thatwas aperfect exam-ple of being in the rightpace and just getting atouch and not trying tocrush the ball.”

Workum said SUA al-ways provides a stiff test.

“They play us up high-er than any other teamweface,” she said. “I’d say

threequartersofour teamisspeedandtheydoaverynice job trying to negatethat, taking away ourlines.Wealwayshadtogetit through 10 players.”

We have an opportunity onNov. 5 to elect fourmembers ofourMadeira City Council. Ibelievemy fresh perspectivecoupled withmy business ex-perience positionme to be astrong contributor to CityCouncil, and ensuringMadei-ra’s continued reputation as atop-rated community.

Madeira becamemy homein 2003 based on its exceptionalreputation for schools, safety,and community spirit. Istepped out of corporate life in2011 to stay homewithmythree young boys and becomemore actively involved in thecommunity.

I had a15-year career inmarketing research, including

appointmentsas global vicepresident ofproject devel-opment atNielsen, andsenior vicepresident atIpsos. Myresponsibil-ities includedbudgeting,process im-

provement, resource integra-tion, changemanagement andpartnership with internal andexternal teams – key experi-ence to bring to City Council.

Gathering input, question-ing why things were done,problem solving and team

collaboration were all essentialto achieving results, and pre-pareme for workingwithmyfellow council members andthe community tomoveMadei-ra forward.

My priorities forMadeirainclude a focused approach toconnecting neighborhoods,developing the Central Busi-ness District and preservingour outstanding fire and policeservices.

The small geographic foot-print ofMadeira lends itselfperfectly to active lifestyles ofall ages whowant to domorewith less car time.

I would like to see an in-crease in safe pedestrian path-ways (sidewalks, crosswalks,

trails) to the Business District,schools and parks. These ef-fortsmodernize and differ-entiate our community whilealso generating increased foottraffic for the business district.

If we aim to attractmagnetbusinesses to draw customerstowards spending locally, wemust plan for this growth.

A comprehensive parkingand pedestrian access planshould be defined to addresstraffic and safety concernsfrequently expressed by resi-dents.

We have unique architecturalassets, and should balance re-tention of historic charmwithflexibility to allow for new con-struction, business growth and

increased revenues.As you consider the choices

for your next City Councilmembers, weigh carefully thevalue of fresh perspective tosolving problems as we seek toclose budget gaps, plan forfuture growth, and retain thebedroom community charm ofthis lovely city.

There is clearly a sharedpassion for the continued vital-ity ofMadeira that spans can-didates and residents alike.

However, I offer a uniquealternative among the candi-dates to change up howwework to achieve success.

Nancy Spencer is aMadeira CityCouncil candidate.

Vote to ensure Madeirastays top-rated community

NancySpencerCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

First, would like to thankyou for placing your faithand trust in me the last eightyears as your Madeira CityCouncil representative. Also,I would like to thank all the

citizens formakingMa-deira a No. 1suburb tolive in.

Duringmy eightyear tenureon council, Ihave beenthe vicemayor thepast twoyears and

have been on the followingcommittees: Law and SafetyCommittee, Madeira -IndianHill Fire Board representa-tive, Economic Development,Budget and Finance Commit-tee.

The experience gained byworking on these commit-tees, along with my ability towork in a cohesive fashionwith my fellow council mem-bers and the community, hasallowed our city to accom-plish many things.

What have we accom-plished in the past eightyears? We reduced the bud-get while reducing taxes. Ihave voted three times tolower your taxes withoutcutting essential servicessuch as maintaining strongpolice and fire departments.

We have obtained grantsfromHamilton County andthe state of Ohio to improvethe quality of our streets, andincreased the “ walk-ability”by adding and maintainingvarious sidewalks.

We enhanced the down-town district through theCentennial Plaza project.

We have heard the com-munity’s requests to addrestaurants to our downtownand to enhance the CentralBusiness District.

We have supported therequest byMadeira schools

to contribute to the new turffield, making the field usableto Madeira Youth Sports andresidents year round.

I’m proud to say we justreceived SCIP funding fromHamilton County to com-pletely redo the pavementand add sidewalks to DawsonRoad. Also, Kenwood Roadand Shawnee Run Roadswere both redone this fund-ing including sidewalks dur-ing our term. This additionalfunding will save Madeirataxpayers $500,000. Thisproject will start earlyspring 2014. This will en-hance the “walk-ability” ofMadeira.

Further, we have receiveda “Safe Routes to School”grant from ODOT to addsidewalks on Thomas Drivein 2014. Soon, we will be in-stalling a new pedestriancrossing signal called aHAWK system (stop light) atthe crosswalk in front ofStarbucks onMiami Avenue.

Remember, I’ve only list-ed a few of our accomplish-ments. Through your sup-port, I want to continue themomentum. That’s why I amasking for your vote on Nov.5.

Please support all Leader-ship 4 Madeira candidates:Councilmember Mike Steur,long-timeMadeira residentsTraci Bayer Theis, PlanningCommission member ChrisHilberg and Tim Dicke.

Our teamwill work foryou to accomplish as muchor more during the next fouryears. We are the only candi-dates endorsed by the Madei-ra and Hamilton CountyRepublican party and nineformer mayors of Madeira.

If you would like moreinformation, check out ourwebsite: www.facebook.com/leadership4madeira.

Thanks for your support.

Tim Dicke is a candidate forMadeira City Council.

Many Madeiraaccomplishmentsin past 8 years

TimDickeCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

It has been a humbling, chal-lenging and gratifying experi-ence to represent you onMa-deira City Council the last fouryears. My goal is always to dowhat is best for our communi-ty. To that end, all of the inputthat you have shared in person,in meetings, letters and emailshas been very helpful.

In 2010Madeira celebratedits 100-year anniversary byreflecting on all of the historyand accomplishments that madeMadeira the No. 1Cincinnatisuburb three years in a row.

While remembering our pastCity Council has also worked tokeepMadeira a great place tolive and work. Centennial Plazawas created with the help offormermayors, business andindividual donors and volun-teers.

The plaza shines a new lighton our iconic train station andwill serve as “the friendlytown’s” place to come togetherwith family and friends. Newdining options are coming toMadeira.

And the Farmers Marketbrings locally grown foods andspecialty products to the heartof Madeira, and provides aweekly opportunity to connect.

There certainly have beenchallenges along the way. Ahuge nationwide recession andthe elimination of the estate taxhave crippled many municipal-ities in Ohio.

In Madeira, despite the lossof several hundred thousanddollars in revenue, we haveavoided increasing taxes or

reducing es-sential cityservices bycreativelyreducing ex-penses andfinding newsources ofrevenue forthe city as wellas the schooldistrict.

City Councilhas worked hard to minimizethe tax burden on residents.The city’s portion of Madeirareal estate taxes remains just7.5 mills. You may be surprisedto know that Madeira’s millageis in the lowest 25 percent of 33cities/villages in HamiltonCounty. The rest of your realestate taxes go to the schoolsand Hamilton County.

In addition, Madeira is one ofonly six cities/villages in Hamil-ton County whose earnings taxrate is still only 1percent!

We are on the right track, butthere is always work to be done.Madeira is a great place to livein part becausemultiple genera-tions of families continue to callthis city their home.

My goal is to preserve whatmakes Madeira great and con-tinually improve the quality oflife for all Madeira residents.That begins with continuedcareful management of thecity’s finances, keeping the citysafe, maintaining our infra-structure, and preserving thecity’s charm.

It includes making it easierto walk around town, providing

more opportunities for recrea-tion, entertainment and dining,and strengthening our down-town. This will not be easy. Itrequires the right mix of expe-rience in city government andin the community.

Tim Dicke, Chris Hilberg,Traci Bayer-Theis and I bringdifferent but complimentaryexperiences from our work inthe community and our profes-sional lives, along with a dedi-cation to keepMadeira on theright track. I humbly ask thatyou vote for all four of us onTuesday Nov. 5.

Mike Steur is a candidate for Madei-ra City Council.

Let’s keep Madeira on the right track

Last week’s questionDo you agree with Gov. John

Kasich’s attempts to bypass thestate legislaturetosecurefundingfor Medicaid expansion? Why orwhy not?

“Yes. Why wouldn’t we wanttax dollars we are already pay-ing come back to our state?”

D.A.

“The ends never justify themeans. This was a terrible blowfor democracy and the Republi-can party.

“Since this move was madepossible by the Speaker of theOhio House and the Majority

Leader of the Senate we conser-vatives have more than Kasichto blame for this.

“I don’t see how any thinkingconservative can support theRepublican party after this out-rage.”

T.H.

“ThereareafewRepublicansin Ohio who understand howrisky the game they are playingis. Kasich appears to be one ofthem, on several important is-sues.

“Health care in the UnitedStates is grossly unfair, and itneeds to be improved. Refusingto allow change is not an option.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 30, 2013

L auren Wiley remembersexactly when she realizedshe was in real trouble. It

was Nov. 24 of last year andWi-ley’s new business, WhippedGoods, was two months old.

Things had been going fineuntil that day, known in retail as“Small Business Saturday.”That morning, the orders start-ed coming in. By the day’s end,more than 300 customers hadordered Wiley’s products. Twodays later, “Cyber Monday,” ithappened again.

“I remember sitting there, atthe end of theMonday, and say-ing to myself: ‘I am going toneedsomehelp,’”Wiley, 26, saidfrom her home inMadisonville.

Whipped Goods started as askin and hair care company.The market line has grownsince then, but not the model.Wiley utilizes cooking tech-niques – mostly whipping,hence the company name – totransform organic and “raw”materials into creams and lo-tions and soaps.

This company is a product ofthe confidence of its creator.Wiley believed in what she wasmaking. She was certain thatCincinnatiwas therightplace tobuild a company like this. Andshe hoped people would want tospend their money on a compa-ny they felt good about. Evenone that made nearly every-thing in a kitchen mixing bowl.

“I’m that girl from Ohio whomakeseverythingbyhand,”Wi-ley said. “This company is de-signed for the woman whowants to know the origin of herproducts. For women who likethe narrative of a product.”

Wiley remembers sitting infront of her grandmother’smir-ror, with all its makeup and lo-tions, when shewas as young as4 years old. Her mom and dadlet her play in the kitchen, try-ing to make scented oils, as shewas growing up.

But after graduating fromthe University of Cincinnatiwith a degree in urban studiesfrom the College of Design, Ar-chitecture, Art and Planning,Wiley was no longer a little girlplayingwithmakeup. Shewas ayoung woman who needed to

earn a living.So while she made hair and

skin products for herself, shestarted working at School Out-fitters in Norwood, which fur-nishes schools. She learnedabout e-commerce and market-ing and customer service.

Wiley has always been anaviduserof socialmedia; byhermid-20sshehadmorethan5,000followers on Twitter alone.Early in 2012, she told a friend,on Twitter, that shewouldmakeher a body butter.

As soon as Wiley hit send,people started tweetingher thattheywanted some, too. And thattheywould pay for it.Wiley sawan opportunity to do somethingshe likedandmakesomemoneyon the side.

From August until October2012, she sold school furnish-ings during the day and madeand sold beauty products atnight. She told her father shecouldmake a living onWhippedGoods.

“I told her to keep workingand to showmeher numbers af-ter eight weeks,” Robert Dog-

gett said. “After six weeks sheshowed me, and I told her togive notice. This was what sheshould be doing.”

So she did. And because shewas working from home, thehouse she grew up in that sheand her husband bought fromher parents, because she wasdoing everything herself, be-cause the rawmaterials are notexpensive, she could start upWhipped Goods without goinginto debt.

“We’ve been profitable fromthe first day,”Wiley saysproud-ly. “I knew there was a market.It already existed.”

Wiley buys her grape oil, av-ocado oil and butters from res-taurant supply companies. Shemixes themintowhat shecalls a

souffle, adding scents to makethem smell just right, often us-ing lavender and ginger and eu-calyptus from her own garden.“Whipping changes every-thing,” Wiley said. Then sheputs them into containers usingpastry bags so they look beauti-ful.

And this, she knew, was im-portant. Customers like to feelthey are indulging themselves.Wiley’s customers started tak-ing photos of their new hairproduct or skin lotion and plac-ing them on Pinterest or Insta-gram. Her customers were be-coming her marketers.

“If itwerenot forTwitterandInstagram, I would not bewhere I am today,” she said. “Itopenssomanymarkets.Todate,we’ve had asmany orders fromParis as we’ve had from Cleve-land.”

NowWiley’s fatherworksfor

the company. So does her hus-band, Grafton Wiley, and herbest friend. Shewill need to addothers, she said, for the upcom-ing holiday season.

“The day after our one-yearanniversary, we had our10,000th order,” Wiley said.Then she revealed her compet-itive nature. “I was disappoint-ed because I really wanted toget there in one year.”

Theproducts aremade in thebasement andboxedon the firstfloor. Orders are taken in thelivingroom.Thebusiness is tak-ing over their home, but Wileyand her husband have drawn aline at the stairs. Upstairs re-mains home. And sometimes,she goes up there just to think.

“When I have time to thinkabout it, it’s extremely gratify-ing. I did this.We did this. It hasbeena lot ofwork, but I amveryproud.”m

As I look out my officewindow, I can see thevegetable garden and thepumpkin patch next to it.The garden is completelyfinished, not a veggie tobe seen. I did pick onelast big bunch of zinnias,

marigoldsand cos-mos fromthe cuttingflowerrow forthe kitch-en tableand wasable tosave seedsfor nextyear. We

still have a good amountof bell peppers, which Iused for one of my favor-ite chicken stir-fries.

Sweet and spicychicken and veggiestir-fry

Amazingly, exoticitems like sambal oelekand fish sauce used to behard to find. Now justabout every grocerystore carries these. Sam-bal olelek is a spicy con-diment found in the inter-national aisle. Ditto withthe fish sauce. I usuallystir in more sambal oelekafter the stir-fry is done.Feel free to use yourfavorite vegetables inhere.

1pound skinless, bonelesschicken breasts or thighs,cut into bite size piecesand set aside

12 oz. bag fresh stir-fryvegetables or 8 oz. sugarsnap peas

1 red bell pepper, sliced1⁄2 medium red onion, sliced

SauceCombine and set

aside:

3 tablespoons dark brownsugar

2 tablespoons soy sauce1 tablespoon fish sauce1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon sambal oelek1 tablespoon sesame oil3⁄4 teaspoon cornstarch

For garnish

Sliced green onionsDry roasted peanuts

Film a pan with oil andstir-fry chicken severalminutes until goldenbrown and done. Don’tovercook. Remove andset aside. Add a bit moreoil and stir-fry veggiesfor several minutes untilcrisp tender. Stir inbrown sugar mixture;

cook a minute until thick-ened. Stir in chicken andtoss to coat. Serve withsesame rice. Serves 3-4.

Sesame riceCook your favorite

rice and stir in sesame oiland soy sauce to taste.Not too much!

Dinner in a dash:Ravioli with sautéedbutternut squashand thyme

I love butternutsquash. It’s chock full of

phytonutrients and anti-oxidants and is deliciousin both sweet and savorydishes. Butternut squashis a bear to try to cutthrough and peel. What Ilike to do is poke it allover with a fork, micro-wave it on high for just afewminutes, use mitts topull it out (it will be hot)and let it cool. The skinwill have softenedenough for you to slicethrough it without usinga machete.1⁄2 medium butternut squash

(about 1 pound), peeledand diced into 1⁄2-inchpieces

Salt and pepper to taste2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced1 tablespoon fresh thyme orup to 1 teaspoon driedthyme (start with 1⁄2teaspoon and go fromthere)

16 oz. fresh or frozen cheeseravioli

Parmesan cheese forgarnish

Film pan with oil andadd squash. Cook, cov-ered, stirring occasional-

ly, until almost tender.Add garlic and thymeand cook, uncovered,tossing occasionally, untilsquash is tender and justbeginning to brown.Meanwhile, cook ravioliaccording to packagedirections. Put ravioli onplatter, top with squashmixture and sprinklegenerously with Parme-san. Serves 4.

Tip from Rita’skitchen

Chicken safety: Towash or not. Here’s mytake on it: Do not washchicken. You’ll be splash-ing more bacteria overthe surface of the sink,counter and yourself. Noneed to worry about bac-teria in chicken when it’scooked to a safe degree.The USDA says to cook awhole chicken to 165degrees; parts to 165degrees and ground to165 degrees. Your visualhere is to have the juicesrun clear when pokedwith a fork. For groundchicken, it will be thor-oughly cooked with nopink spots.

Safely seasoningraw chicken

Before handling thechicken, mix the sea-sonings in a little bowl.Discard the leftoverseasoning.

“The monetary assis-tance is made directly to-ward rent or mortgage,medical orutilitybills.Wereally want to keep some-one from getting thrownout.”

Pantry food demand isso great, Cordell said itgets restocked by volun-teers twice a week.

“You seeGod’s hand allover this place,” she said.“You have to understand,we take no funds from the

What began out of ahomewith support from afew people more than 25yearsagohasgrown intoadedicated Kenwood-lo-cated food pantry helping2,000 people a year andsupported by more than25 churches and civic or-ganizations in northeast-ern Hamilton County.

The Northeast Emer-gency Distribution Ser-vice (NEEDS), located at

Kenwood Baptist ChurchonKenwoodRoad, recent-ly completeda school sup-ply drive that benefitedstudents at 17 schools inDeer Park, Blue Ash, Syc-amore Township, Madei-ra, Indian Hill, Kenwoodand some of the Princetonschool area.

Throughout the year,NEEDS focuses on mak-ing up to $200 emergencymonetary assistanceavailable to eligible cli-ents once a year or foodassistance once a quarter,

“The people who give,well we had one womanwho’s daughter was dyingstates away but she al-ways managed to give.And we have homeless inthe area who live in carsor people who have losttheir home through anemergencywhoare livingin a hotel.

She said since manyother agencies are cover-ing holiday basket collec-tions, NEEDS will spendthis time cleaning out thepantry of itemsmore thanone year old and restock-ing for the continuing an-nual need.

Donations of cannedgoods and other items arealways accepted at theNEEDS food pantry.Mon-etary gifts can be mailedto:NEEDS, 8341KenwoodRoad, Cincinnati, Ohio,45236. For pick-up of do-nated itemsor toaskques-tions call 513-891-0850(NEEDS).

LIFE Food PantryItmightbebasedoutof

a small room, but the im-pact of the Loveland In-terfaith Effort (LIFE)Food Pantry has a big im-pact in the community.

More than 100 volun-teers work hard eachmonth to pick up supplies,stock the pantry, distrib-ute food during pick-uphours, deliver to someseniors’ homes and orga-nize special collectionsthroughout the year.

LIFE Food Pantry isgearingup tohelp 216 fam-ilies, about 605 individualsin total, with its holidaybasket program and Giv-ing Shoppe. This year’sneed is even higher thanlast year, according to di-rector Chris Rubenstein.

She cites a drastic cutin food stamps, job loss,salary decreases and few-er work hours as maincauses thepantry’s traffichas increased.

“People cry and are sograteful we are here. Wehave had lots of new cli-ents that have never hadto ask for help.”

Rubenstein said thecommunity has been verysupportive of the foodpan-try throughout the yearand during the holidays.Ron’sMarket onLoveland-MadeiraRoaddonatescon-tainers of homemadechicken salad during the

year and the pantry sup-plies pre-qualified clientswithahamandagiftcertif-icate to Ron’s to helpmakethe main course for holi-day meals. The LovelandCity Schools is collectingcanned items for the holi-day baskets, along with 10churches, a synagogueandseveral area businesses.

Ron’s Market ownerRon Grooms said hethinks giving back is im-portant.

“Mytheory is, if I’mgo-ing to donate, I like to seewhere mymoney is goingto do good and I think thisis the best place. Peopleare getting fed, and mostplaces you don’t get to seewhere you’re moneygoes.”

He noted how impor-tant the food pantry’swork is.

“I’m not rich and I’mnot poor, but I’mnot goinghungry,” he said.

The Giving Shoppe isopen late November fortwo days in the CharlesBingham Jr. MasonicLodge for the head of pan-try-qualified families toshop for gifts for familymembers.

“The space is trans-formed into a giant freeshopping experience,”Rubenstein said. “It’samazing and gifts can bewrapped for free too ifthey want.”

Every family memberwill receive two personalitems, such as undergar-ments or winter gloves, apair of pants, a shirt and agift. Many of the gifts forteens are gift certificatesand toys for children.Each family can alsochoose a household item,such as coffeepots, irons,skillets or bed sheets.

Holiday Shoppe itemsneed to be received byNov.16andholidaybasketitems by Nov. 22. To do-nate to the holiday bas-kets or Giving Shoppe,items can be dropped offor donations may bemailed to (if desired, des-ignate in memo “GivingShoppe”) LIFE Food Pan-try, 101 S.
