ALEXANDRIA - Middleschool student Olivia Prejean isgearing up to ride a new bicyclethis spring.
But first she will build it inher after-school STEM club.
After school at CampbellCounty Middle School, the Sci-ence Engineering Technologyand Math (STEM) clubs let stu-dents work with communitymentors. The idea is to get thewheels of knowledge moving.
Students in Club 21 can cre-ate objects on a three-dimen-sional (3-D) printer or build a bi-cycle from scratch.
Prejean, a seventh-graderfrom Alexandria, said she looksforward to learning how to workon a bicycle.
“I think it’s a new experi-ence,” Prejean said. “I like tofind out new things.”
Prejean plans to give her oldbicycle to her younger sister.
Sarah Parker, Club 21 pro-gram coordinator, said the pro-grams are in partnership withthe University of Cincinnati as
well as seven business spon-sors. Wal-Mart donated the bi-cycles for the bike club.
Parker said a police officer,teacher and a counselor areamong seven volunteers work-ing with students to help buildbicycles over the next 10 weeks.Students will keep a journalabout building their bicycle aspart of their club work, Parkersaid.
The bike and 3-D printerclubs are project of the GreaterCincinnati STEM Collaborative,she said.
Alexandria Police Depart-ment School Resource OfficerTim Vinson was helping Pre-jean put her bicycle together.
“They basically have to dis-assemble everything, oil it, andput it back together,” Vinsonsaid.
CCMS counselor Kelly Crow-ley mentors bike club students,too.
“I think these kids learn notonly the ins and outs of putting abike together, but following in-structions and patience,” Crow-ley said.

Kentucky’s March 5 Republi-can presidential caucus inNorthern Kentucky wasmarked by long lines of votersand an evening of waiting tohear a final result.
At 10:46 p.m., Donald Trumpwas declared the victor in thefirst Republican presidentialcaucus in Kentucky since 1984.Tabulating results took an hourlonger than the six hours pollswere open on Saturday.
Northern Kentucky buckedthe statewide Trump trend.Boone, Campbell and Kentoncounties all three voted in thisorder: Texas Sen. Ted Cruz,Trump and Ohio Sen. John Kas-ich.
Caucus sites, one per countyin Boone, Kenton and Campbell,were crowded with voters dur-ing a six-hour voting window.Kenton County’s caucus in Inde-pendence opened at 10 a.m. witha line of 1,000 people waiting toget inside, Kenton County Cau-cus Chair Shane Noem said.
Still, the caucus brought few-er Northern Kentucky Republi-cans out to vote than the May2012 presidential primary elec-tion.
Boone County had 13 percentturnout, down from 20 percentin 2012; Kenton also had 13 per-cent, down from 21 percent in2012; and 12 percent of Camp-
bell County Republican voterscame out, compared to 20 per-cent four years ago.
Northern Kentucky’s caucusparticipation trailed statewideGOP turnout of 18 percent. Ken-tucky’s GOP turnout increasedcompared to the 2012 primarywhen 16 percent of Republicanvoters showed up.
Kentucky normally holds itsprimaries in May at dozens ofprecincts per county, not one lo-cation. Kentucky’s Republicanparty leaders moved the presi-dential race to a March caucusto allow U.S. Sen. Rand Paul torun for both president and re-election to the Senate. State lawprevented him from appearingtwice on the May 17 primaryballot. Democrats will vote fortheir presidential choice onMay 17.
The caucus throughout theday caused a mix of anxiety andexcitement.
Tempers flaredBoone County Sheriff’s dep-
uties were directing the line ofcars that stretched down theMount Zion Road going in andout of the polls.
The caucus rankled somevoters.
June Smith Tyler, of Verona,said she was just mad.
“I voted in November andthey can’t find my name,” shesaid. “I’ve got so much to do to-day and I have been here thiswhole time.”
Smith Tyler said she wasamong the first in line and hasbeen a registered Republicanvoter for years.
“It’s not a caucus,” she said.“This is mass confusion.”
In Kenton County, people cir-
cled a full school parking lot forparking spaces. A line of voterssnaked around Campbell Coun-ty High School where the wait tovote was an hour and a half.
Nate Burris, of Alexandria,showed up to vote at CampbellCounty High School in Alexan-dria but couldn’t wait that long.
“It’s terrible,” Burris said.“Whoever set this up didn’t real-ize how many people wouldcome. I’ve got to be somewhereat 2.”
Joe Beckmeyer, of Wilder,opted to wait in line to vote for
Ohio Gov. John Kasich. “You’ve got the future at
stake, children to worry about,”Beckmeyer said. “We can’t haveanother eight years of whatwe’ve been having. The mes-sage is loud and clear today thatpeople are sick and tired ofwhat’s going on.”
Kenton County Judge-execu-tive Kris Knochelmann washelping people with disabilitiesfind a seat near the entrance atto avoid standing in line.
“It’s exciting stuff,” Kno-chelmann said of the caucus.
“But nobody thought it would bethis crowded.”
Cruz wins locallyCruz won all three Northern
Kentucky counties with Trumpcoming in second in each by 3 to7 percentage points. Cruz gar-nered 34.2 percent of BooneCounty votes, 33.35 percent ofKenton County votes and 30.8percent of Campbell Countyvotes. Trump came in second ineach county with 29.65 percent

Uncooperative redtraffic lights didn’t stopDebbie Henlin, of Inde-pendence, from casting avote for Cruz. She made itto Kenton County’s cau-cus location with minutesto spare before the pollsclosed at 4 p.m.
“I wanted to be here,”Henlin said. “Every redlight was determined tokeep me from being herebefore 4, but I made it.”
Why was it so impor-tant? She’s afraid of an-other Republican candi-date getting elected:Trump.
“I think we have a clearchoice on a king or a con-stitution, and I don’t wanta king,” Henlin said.“Trump would be theking.”
Trump’s bravado im-pressed other Kentuckyvoters.
“I voted for DonaldTrump and my reason is
he seems to have a lot ofpower and decisiveness,”said Teresa Kraft, ofUnion. “I just wish hewere more presidential.”
The criticism of Trumpfrom powerful GOP fig-ures, such as U.S. Sen.Mitch McConnell, onlymade Karen Alexander, ofCovington, want to votefor Trump more.
“I think Washingtonhas become a good ol’boys establishment,” Al-exander said. “I thinkTrump has started toshake everybody up, andit’s obvious at the re-sponse they’re getting,even from Mitch. I’m sodisappointed that they’reagainst him.”
By the numbers:Caucus turnout by
county was 7,421 in Ken-ton County, 6,837 in BooneCounty, and 3,717 inCampbell County, accord-ing to state party results.Republican registrationby county are 56,377 inKenton County, 50,939 inBoone County and 31,605in Campbell County, ac-cording to Kentucky Sec-retary of State Office sta-tistics.
Boone County caucus
chair Phyllis Sparks saidshe expected half of the2012 primary turnout.
“I’m very pleased withthat number,” Sparkssaid. “There was a lack ofadvertising and promo-tion of the caucus in Ken-tucky and what to do.”
Should a caucus be repeated?
Republicans weren’tcertain they want anothercaucus again. If they dohave it again, they wouldneed more than one loca-tion per county, severalRepublicans told the En-quirer.
It will depend on costand how angry Republi-cans that couldn’t make itto the polls were, saidNeal Moser, a Republicanfrom Taylor Mill whohelped at the KentonCounty caucus site. Hegave the caucus overallhigh marks.
“People enjoyed cama-raderie and enjoyed beinghere,” Moser said. “Itwould have been better ifthere was more participa-tion from the candidates’representatives. Overall,it was a good event forparty morale and unity.”

NEWPORT - KarenYates sees it every day –families who have noplace to stay.
“Can you imagine,”Yates said. “There arefamilies out there whoneed a place to stay andthere’s no place for themto go in Northern Ken-tucky. It’s devastating.”
Yates is executive di-rector of The Henry Ho-sea House, a Newport-
based soup kitchen. Asshe provides guests awarm, nutritious mealdaily, she wonders wherethey will go for shelter.It’s not easy for the TaylorMill resident to see chil-dren hurting and theirparents scared. A prom-ise of help, however, is onthe way.
Family Promise ofNorthern Kentucky, afaith-based organizationthat provides shelter,meals, transportation andcase management ser-vices to homeless familieswith children, is return-ing.
The Newport-basedshelter closed its doors inMay 2014 because of alack of funding. The shel-ter had been serving fam-ilies in need for 23 years.
“This has been a com-munity-wide project,”said Yates, who serves as
vice-chair of the FamilyPromise board of trust-ees. “I think this is goingto be a successful projectand the beneficiaries willbe the families in trueneed. It will be such a re-warding experience whenwe’re up and running andsee that first family walkthrough the door. All thehard work will be worthit.”
Family Promise hasplans to open at its previ-ous location, 336 WestNinth St., Newport, onMay 1.
Board chairman TomYocum, of Fort Thomas,said $65,000 has alreadybeen raised to reopen thedoors. Additional fundingis needed to support ongo-ing operation, he said.With the help of The Safe-ty Net Alliance and sever-al churches, the project iswell underway.
“The outpouring ofsupport that we have re-ceived from about 30 con-gregations in NorthernKentucky and other vol-unteers and supportershas been very heart-warming and encourag-ing,” Yocum said. “It hasreinforced our commit-ment to important pro-gram.”
People can continue tohelp by volunteering ormaking financial contri-butions, he said. Checkscan be made out and sentto: Family Promise ofNorthern Kentucky, P.O.Box 721763, Newport, KY41071. To volunteer, [email protected] or call 859-308-8005.
Yocum said there is noother Northern Kentucky
agency that keeps home-less families together whohave teenage boys oradult males.
Family Promise will of-fer a day center. The DayCenter operations coordi-nate daily activities forfamilies, making surechildren get to school andother essential social ser-vices are provided, hesaid. Each family willhave a case plan that in-cludes assistance findingpermanent housing, em-ployment, medical careand transportation.
Overnight shelter isprovided at participatinghost churches who rotateon a 10-week basis, Yocumsaid. Dinner and break-fast is provided to guestsat the churches who havesupport churches to as-sist. The families aretransported to the daycenter early each day.
“Family Promise helpsfill a void in services tohomeless families withchildren, by keeping fam-ilies together,” Yocumsaid. “Also, our programgoal is to find permanentsolutions for families ex-periencing temporaryhomelessness.”
St. Joseph, Cold Spring second-grade teacher Ann MacKenzieand her students are excited to deliver their snacks and drinksto Family Promise. Family Promise was in operation for 23years until 2014. A community-wide effort is now bringing theorganization back to Northern Kentucky.

Kentucky artists whowish to be considered forinclusion in the KentuckyArts Council’s TeachingArtists Directory must
apply by March 15.The Teaching Artists
Directory is an online ros-ter of Kentucky artistswho have produced high-
quality work and have theskills and competenciesneeded to collaboratewith teachers to designand implement arts resi-
dencies in Kentuckyschools.
“This directory is animportant component ofour Teaching Art Togeth-er program, as it providesteachers with a list of art-ists, selected for the di-rectory by a panel of fel-low artists and arts educa-tion professionals, whoare ready to be pairedwith teachers throughoutthe commonwealth forshort-term residencies,”said Lori Meadows, artscouncil executive direc-tor.
The residencies arepersonally gratifying,said Knox county artistDianne Simpson, who hasbeen in the directory formore than 10 years.
“I haven’t done a resi-dency that I have not feltrewarded, emotionallyand spiritually. Probablyevery artist you’ll talk towill tell you the samething,” Simpson said.“Those kids who are dis-ruptive in class, have
problems in class, who theteachers are constantlytrying to get their inter-est, those students are theones we teaching artistsdo the best with. A lot ofthem are not book learn-ers.
“They need a visualcomponent. We can bringin art forms and applythem to mathematics, lan-guage, science. We cantake our art form andspread it across the curri-culum and make it real.
“When you reach thosekids and see light come onin their eyes, that is yourreward.”
Simpson is a basketweaver, loom weaver andfiber artist. She said beingin the directory has givenher credibility as a teach-ing artist.
“The training the artscouncil provides is verybeneficial,” she said.
Before she was adjudi-cated into the directory,Simpson demonstratedher art at festivals, ex-
plaining her techniqueand the history behind it.When she learned aboutthe Teaching Artists Di-rectory, she said it wasonly natural that she ap-ply. She encouraged anyartist with a keen interestin passing on their knowl-edge to apply to the direc-tory.
“What it boils down tois how interested are youin our next generation?What do you want them todo? Do you want them tobe stuck in front of a com-puter screen or to lookoutside the computer andbe interested in the worldaround them?”

“It was a thrill … to feel thelife of the river. We becamepart of it, like the driftwood.”– Harlan Hubbard, The Shan-tyboat Journals
Northern Kentuckiansaren’t willing to let go of Har-lan Hubbard’s legacy morethan 70 years after the authorand landscape artist floateddownriver in a shantyboat toeschew modern society.
Fort Thomas conservation-ists have begun working torestore Hubbard’s HighlandAvenue studio so it can beconsidered for the NationalRegister of Historic Places.
Behringer-Crawford Mu-seum in Covington holds oneof the biggest collections ofHubbard artwork. Hubbard,who died at age 88 in 1988, hasother artworks on display inNewport, Covington and at theUniversity of Kentucky.
Born in Bellevue, Hubbardis famous for chronicling hisyears living a simple life alongthe Ohio River. Hubbardclaimed author Henry DavidThoreau as an influence.
Hubbard and his wife, An-na, started their Ohio Riverjourney in 1944 by launchingtheir homemade boat from theformer Campbell County com-munity of Brent just downhillfrom Fort Thomas.
Hubbard recounted theiryears of journeying the Ohioand Mississippi rivers to NewOrleans in his book “Shanty-boat.” Hubbard eventuallysettled in Trimble County,Kentucky, where he wrote“Simple Living at Payne Hol-low.”
About three months beforeLaurie Risch became exec-utive director at Behringer-Crawford in 1986, her sisterPaula traveled by boat to seeHubbard at his Ohio Riverbottomland home.
Her sister was able to con-vince Hubbard to donate somepaintings to Behringer-Craw-ford. Hubbard rememberedtheir grandfather, who ranGrimm’s lumber yard in Brentand supplied wood for Hub-bard’s shantyboat, she said.
Hubbard donated 21 paint-ings, 11 watercolors and sixwoodcut prints. The museumhas added two more Hubbardworks to the collection overthe years, Risch said.
Many of the scenes Hub-bard donated show areas ofCampbell County includingthe former Silver Grove rail-road yards and natural scenesfrom around Brent.
“We have worked hard tomaintain the collection and theHubbard legacy,” Risch said.
Hubbard rode his bicyclefrom Fort Thomas to Brent topaint regularly even beforebuilding the shantyboat, Rischsaid.
Sidney Thomas, who ownsHubbard’s former home, saidshe bought it with her hus-band, Bill, in 2006 before theygot married in 2010.
The Fort Thomas ForestConservancy filed an applica-tion Feb. 1 to seek placing theformer Hubbard studio, locat-ed behind the home, on theNational Register of HistoricPlaces.
“I love the idea that he getsto live on forever and peopleget to experience what hewanted to do with life,” Thom-
as said of the application.Chuck Keller, who wrote
the application, said the idea isto have a place for educatingpeople about the naturalworld. The studio needs re-pairs and a fundraising drive
is underway, Keller said.Thomas said her husband,
now deceased, chose the homebecause it belonged to Hub-bard. Preserving the studioand house for future genera-tions was their goal, she said.

HARLAN HUBBARD’S LEGACY“In the tradition of naturalists like Thoreau, Muir and Abbey, Ken-
tuckian Harlan Hubbard began to live a life of communing withnature, not fearing it. Harlan and his wife Anna became new proph-ets of environmentalism and sustainability, and made it their concert-ed mission to fully explore the symbiotic relationship of humans tothe natural world.”– Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft

INDEPENDENCE - There’sso Munch fun going on at theDurr Branch of the KentonCounty Public Library with alittle green guy greeting pa-trons every day.
“People love our tortoiseMunch,” Durr children’s pro-grammer Ashley Pukulskisaid.
“They come in just to seehim and then they stay for abook or a program, it’s great.He’s very special to us. He’svery active and the kids love tofollow him around. Parents en-joy him too. I think people likeseeing how he’s grown and youdon’t typically see a tortoise ina library.”
Almost every day Munchcruises the library floor de-lighting patrons young and oldalike, Pukulski said.
Munch joined the librarystaff about a year and a halfago, Pukulski said. It came af-ter children’s services coordi-nator Joel Caithamer visited alocal classroom that had twosmall tortoises as pets. The twoweren’t getting along, so Caith-amer offered to take one andmake him a library mascot.
Pukulski said at that time,Munch could fit in one of herhands. Now she needs bothhands to pick him up. He’snearly tripled his size.
“We’re not sure how big hewill get but I’ve read that some
tortoises can get up to 150pounds,” she said.
Most recently Munch hasbecome quite the celebrity aswith the #tortoisetuesday so-cial media campaign. EveryTuesday Pukulski posts a photoon Twitter and Facebook fea-turing Munch in some fun ac-tivity. His celebrity status isused to promote reading aswell as the library’s programs.
Sometimes he’s a super-hero, sometimes he likes to gosled riding and in a coupleweeks he’s going to do his ownMarch Madness bracket.
Pukulski said the socialmedia campaign started whena staff member posted a photoof Munch on Facebook. Some-
one had tied a balloon aroundhim to keep track of him whilehe wandered around the li-brary.
“The photo was a hit, we gotso many likes,” Pukulski said.“Munch is a great tool to inter-est the community and get peo-ple excited about coming intothe library and check out greatbooks and our great program-ming.”
What does Munch think of itall?
“I think he loves the atten-tion,” Pukulski said. “He goesright up to people, he’s so so-cial.”

Fire blight is a highly de-structive disease of apples andpears, which can occur in com-mercial orchards and homeplantings.
Many land-scape trees andshrubs in therose family arealso suscepti-ble to this dis-ease. Callerypear, Bradfordpear, hawthorn,crabapple, ser-viceberry, coto-neaster, spirea,plum, quince,blackberry, and
raspberry are also hosts, andsusceptible to the disease. Thisdisease’s appearance is erraticfrom year to year as preciseconditions are needed for infec-tion. Fire blight is generally fa-vored by high, relative humidityor rainy conditions when tem-peratures are between 65-70 de-grees Fahrenheit during flowerbloom.
The key to fire blight man-agement is preventing the infec-tion of flowers. Once flowers be-come infected, they serve as asource of inoculum for the restof the trees. Management of fireblight requires an integrated ap-proach that relies primarily oncultural practices and is sup-ported by the judicious use ofbactericides.
The University of Kentuckyrecommends pruning blightedtwigs and cankered branchesduring dormancy (late winter orearly spring). Blighted twigs orshoots wilt from the tip and de-velop a crook or bend at the
growing point, commonly re-ferred to as a “shepherd’scrook.”
Fire blight cankers appearshrunken with a dark brown topurple color. Prune carefully, sothat all infected branches areremoved. Blighted twigs shouldbe pruned at least 6 to 8 inchesbelow cankers and infectedareas. Remove and destroypruned material to eliminatesources of inoculum for subse-quent epidemics.
Timely chemical sprays maybe used as a preventative mea-sure to control fire blight duringthe spring when the pathogen isat the surface of cankers and onflowers. After the bacteriumhas invaded tissues, bacteri-cides are not effective.
Copper sulfate applied dur-ing late dormancy to active can-kers, twigs, and branches helpsreduce overwintering popula-tions of the fire blight bacteri-um. Fixed copper can be appliedwhile trees are breaking dor-mancy, just at the site of the firstgreen tip. Streptomycin andoxytetracycline are used incommercial orchards but notfrequently in urban landscapes.

PUZZLE ANSWERS
MARCH 10, 2016 • ALEXANDRIA RECORDER • 9ANEWS
One of my most memorable cateringevents was a Jewish Seder supper. Now Iwill tell you this was years ago, and I knewvery little about the Seder supper cele-brated on Passover.
Well, about that time, our Catholicchurch held a Seder supper and I helpedwith the food. One of the items we servedat our church dinner was matzo bread/crackers that we purchased.
During the Seder meal that I catered, Iremember vividly the Seder plate with thecrisp matzo that the hostess had made her-self, in the center of the plate, surrounded by othermeaningful foods, all of which were important tothe celebration.
Recently, one of my listeners to my Sonrisemorning show program on Sacred Heart radiowanted to make homemade matzo for a Passovercelebration for her family. I had a recipe tuckedaway in my files so last night I decided to make it.
The history behind matzo is that it shouldbe made, from start to finish, in 18 minutessince that’s the time frame believed to keepthe dough from starting to ferment or leavenfrom the moisture.
It honors the quick departing of the Israel-ites from Egypt. They had to make bread inhaste so unleavened bread took less time, andthat’s what they made.
Did I finish it in 18 minutes? No, I dawdledaround but the recipe was super easy andtasty.
When I pulled it out of the oven I asked myhusband, Frank, if he would taste a piece. “Only ifyou put butter on it,” he said. So much for Passovertraditions!
Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator,Jungle Jim’s Eastgate culinary professional andauthor. Find her blog online at Abouteating.com.Email her at [email protected] with “Ri-ta’s kitchen” in the subject line.
Easy homemade crisp matzo
This reminds me of the pita chips you buy. This is avery crisp cracker that is good for dipping or just breakingapart and eating. If you’d like to see step-by-step photos ofthe process, check out my abouteating.com site. This is afun recipe for the little ones to help with.
2 cups all purpose flour (you can also use wholewheat but you’ll need a bit more water)
1 cup water1 tablespoon salt1 tablespoon olive oil plus extra for brushing on
matzo
Preheat oven to 475. Spray cookie sheets.Mix the flour, water, salt and olive oil. Knead briefly
on a floured surface until the dough comes together into asmooth ball, a few minutes. You’ll need to add a bit of flouruntil it’s no longer sticky. Bless the dough!
With your hands, roll into log and then cut into egg-sized pieces. Roll each piece out as thin as you can. Whenyou think it’s thin enough, keep rolling! Transfer to cookiesheet and prick all over to prevent puffing in the oven.
You can put the breads close together. I brushed somewith olive oil. Bake until crisp and golden brown in spots,5-7 minutes or so. After they came out of the oven, Ibrushed them again with olive oil.
Mini Easter egg nests like Russell Stovercandy
I love these nests since they can be made with differ-ent kinds of high-quality chocolate. Desiccated coconut isquite dry and fine, with lots less moisture than regular. Isuppose you could use regular unsweetened flaked coco-nut, but I would chop it up a bit. Adapted slightly fromSerious Eats.
8 ounces finely chopped chocolate - your choice ofmilk, semisweet or white

Often we hear of car crash-es involving elderly driverswhere serious injuries or deathresults for other drivers orpedestrians. As a result, peopleacross the nation have calledfor automatic revocation of adriver’s license after a certainage and others want testing fordrivers after they reach age65.
Though Kentucky does nothave any age-specific renewalrules, 33 states and District ofColumbia have special provi-sions for mature drivers in-cluding accelerated renewalfrequency, vision tests, roadtests, and restriction of onlineor mailed renewals.
Kentucky law currentlydoes not require driver testingfor elderly drivers after theyreach a certain age.
However, if a driver is arisk, regardless of age, thereare steps that can be taken toget a dangerous driver off theroads. However, it is importantfor family members and
friends torecognizesigns of re-duced abilityto drive insenior citizensand take actionfor the safetyof all. Some ofthose signsinclude thefollowing:
» Drivingat inappropri-
ate speeds, either too fast ortoo slow;
» Asking passengers to helpcheck if it is clear to pass orturn;
» Responding slowly orfailing to respond to pedestri-ans, bicyclists and other driv-ers;
» Ignoring, misinterpretingor disobeying street signs andtraffic lights;
» Failing to yield;» Becoming easily frustrat-
ed or angry;» Appearing drowsy or
confused;» Having one or more near
accidents or near misses;» Drifting across lane
markings or bumping intocurbs;
» Forgetting to turn onheadlights after dusk;
» Having difficulty turninghead, neck or shoulders whiledriving or parking;
» Ignoring automobile me-chanical problems;
» Having too little strengthto turn the wheel quickly in anemergency situation;
» Getting lost repeatedly,even in familiar areas.
In addition, the KentuckyMedical Review Board identi-fies drivers with physical ormental impairments whichdiminish their ability to drivesafely. The board consists ofophthalmologists, neurologists,psychiatrists and rehabilita-tion specialists. Drivers maybe reported to the MedicalReview Board for one of thefollowing reasons:
» The driver has blackedout, lost consciousness or suf-fered a seizure prior to a re-portable motor vehicle acci-dent;
» The driver has been re-ported by a physician as beingincapable of driving safely dueto a physical or mental condi-tion, or due to medication;
» The driver’s official rec-ord at the Kentucky Trans-portation Cabinet indicates apossibility of physical or men-tal impairment;
» The driver has been re-ported by a commonwealth’sattorney, county attorney,county clerk, circuit clerk,sheriff or judge as being inca-pable of driving due to a phys-ical or mental impairment;and/or
» At least two citizens havesigned an affidavit describingthe driver as incapable of driv-ing due to a physical or mentalimpairment.
Affidavits can be obtainedat a Circuit Court Clerk’s Of-
fice or by calling the MedicalReview Board at 502-564-1257.After the Medical ReviewBoard has received the com-pleted affidavit, it will reviewthe information and notify theindividual of its decision re-garding driving privileges.
By and large, senior citizensstatistically have a per-capitalower crash rate than other agegroups. Moreover, senior citi-zens are some of the safest andmost courteous drivers on ourroads. Hopefully, the aboveinformation will help identifythose few elderly drivers thatreally need to consider surren-dering their license for every-one’s safety.

How to get dangerous drivers off the roads

Some diseases that com-monly affect Americans areeasy to discuss because theyaren’t embarrassing; there’s noshame in having high blood
pressure orheart disease.
But Marchis ColorectalCancer Aware-ness Month,and the time isright to talkabout a com-mon diseasethat is pre-ventable if theproper precau-tions are tak-en.
In 2016, there will be ap-proximately 134,490 new casesof colorectal cancer in theUnited States. Although therate of death from colorectalcancer has declined in recentyears, over 49,000 will die ofthe disease this year. The life-time risk of developing col-orectal cancer in the averageAmerican with no family histo-ry of the disease is around 4.5percent, and the relative five-year survival of all people withall stages of the disease is 65percent.
Colorectal cancer oftenbegins as a noncancerous pol-yp, which has no symptoms;the good news is a polyp can beeasily detected by screening.Current clinical practiceguidelines recommend screen-ing for colorectal cancer at theage of 50 years, or at the age of45 in the African Americanswho are at risk for developingcolorectal cancer at a slightlyearlier age.
Earlier screening shouldalso be considered if there is afamily history of polyps orcancers; surveillance shouldbe repeated every 10 years ifyou’re average risk for col-orectal cancer. Frequency mayincrease depending on yourrisk factors., such as inflam-matory bowel disease, or apersonal history of extra-in-testinal cancers.
Colorectal cancer symp-toms depend on the size and
location of the cancer. Somecommonly experienced symp-toms include changes in bowelhabits, changes in stool consis-tency, blood in the stool andabdominal discomfort.
Perhaps the most commonsymptom of colorectal cancer,however, is silence. No symp-toms.
The earlier the stage ofcancer at the time of diagnosis,the greater the chance of sur-vival. This is why early detec-tion through appropriatescreening and surveillanceexams is so important. In moreadvanced stages, colorectalcancer typically requires sur-gery, chemotherapy, and occa-sionally radiation – if the can-cer is located in the rectum.
Colonoscopy is the currentgold standard for colorectalcancer detection and probablythe most accurate way of de-tecting polyps and cancers.The greatest benefit of col-onoscopy is that polyps can beremoved at the time they arefound, and cancers can bediagnosed accurately. Othermethods of screening can beused in select circumstances,and include fecal tests forblood, and CT colonographyaka “virtual” colonoscopy. Thismethod, which is not common-ly used, involves low-doseradiation CT scanning to obtaina reconstructed view of thecolon – the large intestine –that is otherwise only seenwith an endoscope during col-onoscopy.
Early detection of any dis-ease is important and is evenmoreso with cancer; in thecase of colorectal cancer, theproblem can be stopped in itstracks with periodic exams.
So I urge you to not put offyour colonoscopy, and to talkabout your family history ofthis not only this cancer butothers as well. While not themost comfortable conversa-tion, it could save your life, orthe life of someone you love.

Last week’s questionThe Republican’s presidential
caucus is a departure from theusual primary system for select-ing the Kentucky’s GOP dele-gates. How effective was this2016 caucus?
“The Kentucky Repub-licans held a caucus this yearfor one purpose only: to cir-cumvent the law prohibitinga person from running fortwo offices at the same time.This cost the Party a lot ofmoney, along with confusingmany of the voters. Therewas no real benefit to havinga caucus instead of allowingthe voters to perform thesame act at the primary inMay. The only bright side tothe whole sad affair is thatthe person for whom thisdebacle was performed,dropped out of the race forpresident before the caucuswas even held! Here’s hopingthat Senator Paul doesn’t doany better in November.”
Larry “Santa” VarneyDemocrat Candidate, Kentucky
House District 64
“I live in Boone County,
am severely disabled, over65, and I am angry. I tried tovote Saturday morning in theRepublican presidential cau-cus, but went home when Isaw the huge line on the high-way. I could not vote by mailbecause I am not 70 or olderor in the military.
“I went back to the line onthe highway at 3 p.m., think-ing enough people werehome watching Kentucky’slast regular basketball game.When I saw the handwrittensign saying the polls wereclosed (after waiting anhour), I blame the KentuckyGOP and have the following
advice:“Have a primary with
local polling places, not acaucus. Have the pollingstations open from 6 a.m. to 7p.m., not 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.Allow residents 65 or olderand anyone with a disabledlicense plate or tag to vote bymail. And if they still insiston having a caucus, havepolling places with plenty ofparking, such as FlorenceMall, not one for the entirecounty.
“The reason we wereswitched from a presidentialprimary to a caucus was toaccommodate one person –Sen. Paul. What a mistake!”
Claude Bordelon, Florence
“Apart from the traffic, Ithought it was good. I actu-ally liked seeing people Iknow and do business witharound town but didn’t knowthey were Republican. Theturnout seemed heavy al-though I don’t know if it wasbecause we were all in oneplace or if it was actually agreat turnout.”

For the first time since2000, Newport Central Catho-lic is headed to Rupp Arena af-ter the Thoroughbreds tookdown the No. 1-ranked team inthe state, Covington Catholic,in Monday night’s Ninth Re-gion finals, 52-47.
Senior forward Ben Weyer,the Ninth Region’s player ofthe year, was an easy choicefor the tournament’s mostvaluable player award. He wasdominant with 22 points, 12 re-bounds and seven blocks, andhis supporting cast camethrough with clutch shots andbig plays. The Thoroughbredswere 6 of 13 (.462) from 3-pointrange as a team.
“We beat a hell of a team.They are so good,” NewCathcoach Ron Dawn said.“They’re No. 1 in the state for areason, it’s legit. I don’t knowthe whole history of NewCath,but as long as I’ve been in-volved there since 1970 I hon-estly think this is the biggestwin in the history of the school– against the No. 1-ranked teamin the state for a regional finalafter what we’ve been throughthe last couple of years – this ishuge.”
The Thoroughbreds willtake on the champion from theSeventh Region on Wednesday,March 16 at 1:30 p.m. in thefirst round of the KHSAABoys’ Sweet 16 State Basket-ball Tournament. LouisvilleTrinity and St. Xavier were setto play for that opportunityTuesday night.
NewCath point guard Bren-nan Hall was also named to theNinth Region’s all-tournamentteam.
“I like challenges,” Hallsaid. “I just wanted to do mybest against them, and it feltlike everything was falling to-night. The last few years peo-ple thought we struggled here(in the tournament) and
couldn’t beat CovCath, so wejust kept that in the back of ourheads. This is what we wantedall year.”
Hall was outstandingthroughout the entire tourna-ment, but he saved his best per-formance for last. Despite get-ting into some early foul trou-ble that limited his playingtime, he finished with 15 pointson 6 of 9 shooting, including abig three with 1:35 to play thatpushed the Thoroughbreds’lead to 50-42, essentially seal-ing the win.
“You try to run set plays, butby now everyone is so wellscouted that it just comesdown to you have to put yourplayers in a position wherethey can possibly make a play,”Dawn said. “And Ben andBrennan especially did it.Brennan’s three was hugedown here in the corner, andthe other guys just bustedtheir butts to defend and re-
bound.”“People said this is my
team, but we’re a real team –that’s how it is,” Weyer added.“I think Brennan proved him-self. If he’s not the top sopho-more in N. Ky., he’s definitelyup there, and I’m going to be onhim to keep working and doingthis same thing the next twoyears.”
NewCath jumped out to a7-0 lead over the first threeminutes of action. Solid perim-eter defense combined withthe threat of Weyer defendingthe rim held the Colonels tojust five points through thefirst period. Weyer scored sev-en of his 22 points in the frameto lift the Thoroughbreds to a12-5 lead heading into the sec-ond quarter.
After falling behind by asmany as 11 on a Luke Moeves3-pointer with 6:27 to play inthe half, CovCath came storm-ing back with a 19-5 run mid-
way through the second to takea 26-23 lead at halftime.
Cole VonHandorf scored all11of his first half points duringthe Colonels’ second quartercomeback. He finished with agame-high 25 points on 10 of 20shooting, including 2-for-7from 3-point range.
Two buckets by Weyer, anand-one finish by Hall, and athree by Brian Anderson mid-way through the third quarterpushed the Thoroughbredsback in front 37-33.
They never relinquishedthe lead from there.
After Hall’s big three with1:35 left, a pair of free throwsby CovCath senior Andy Floodand an old-fashioned 3-pointplay by VonHandorf drew theColonels within one posses-sion, 50-47, but they couldn’tcome up with another bucketagainst the Thoroughbreds’defense in their final few pos-sessions.
Monday night marked New-Cath’s first appearance in theregional finals since they lostto Boone County in 2012. Intheir last championship backin 2000, head coach RonDawn’s son, Ronny, scored 31points to lead them pastHolmes, 52-38. The school hasnow won nine regional titlesoverall, six of which came by1975.
“I’ve never been so happy,”Weyer said. “There’s no sweet-er reward. We’re not done yet –that’s all I’m going to say.”

MT. STERLING, Ky. – Be-fore the 10th Region Tourna-ment tipped off March 2, Camp-bell County senior center MattWilson was given a plaque forbeing named the 10th RegionPlayer of the Year.
That did not sit well with theMason County student section,who lobbied for their seniorguard, Antwavon “Pig” Wil-liams. They chanted “Pig is bet-ter” as Wilson received theaward.
The two standouts, who bothaverage 20 points per game thisseason, matched each other forfour quarters and outdid theiraverages, combining for 52points in the game.
But after a frenetic finalframe in which secondary op-tions from both teams hit mostof the key baskets, it was Wil-liams who got the last word in.Williams’ 25-foot 3-pointer atthe buzzer gave Mason County a72-70 win over the Camels, end-ing Campbell’s chances of athird straight regional title.
“We got down six and theyfought back, tied it up, got astop,” said Campbell head coachAric Russell. “They made somebig shots. We were just trying tokeep guys in front and not foul.You force a guy into a tough shotlike that and he hit a big shot.That happens.”
Campbell senior guard TrentMcGovney set up the final se-quence by hitting a tough pull-up jumper from 17 feet to givethe Camels a 70-69 lead. Masoncalled time out with 6.2 secondsto play.
Mason sophomore guard Le-vi Dunaway dribbled the ballacross midcourt. Williams setup at his left baseline and cutback to the left wing. Dunawaymade a nifty behind-the-backdribble to free up space for Wil-liams, who took one dribble andlaunched an off-balance shotthat hit nothing but net.
Campbell was down 64-58with 3:20 to play in the game.
“I’m proud of my kids,” Rus-sell said. “They fought back.Trent hit a big shot and it took areally big shot to beat us. I’m notdisappointed in the way our kidsplayed.”

We all know how it feelswhen someone swipes our fa-vorite swing or we come insecond in a contest we thoughtwe should have no problemwinning. Unfortunately, dis-appointing events like theseoccur early in our lives and thelives of our children. Helpingchildren learn how to channeltheir disappointment can actu-ally help them develop emo-tionally, intellectually and so-cially and positively impacttheir future happiness andachievements.
When we see our childrenexperiencing the sadness andfrustration that comes withdisappointment, our first reac-
tion might be to coddle them,buy them gifts or respond neg-atively toward others who arethe perceived source of thedisappointment.
These are not the best re-
sponses, as they do not allowyour child to figure out thereasons behind their disap-pointment and the steps theycan take to not feel that way inthe future.
Your child will look to youfor a way to respond to theseunpleasant feelings. While itmay be hard, do not appear tobe disappointed at the outcomein front of your child. This mayadd to their disappointment, ifthey feel like they have let youdown.
Instead, talk to them about atime when you were disappoint-ed and the steps you took toimprove the situation. Let themknow that everything worked
out okay for you.Encourage your children to
view setbacks as opportunitiesfor self-improvement andgrowth. Teach them that pastoutcomes of loss cannot bechanged, only the way theyrespond to them in the future.Encourage them to figure outwhat went wrong and waysthey can improve next time.Remind them that you believein them and if they continue towork hard and improve theywill probably reach their goals.Also remind them that you willlove them regardless of theoutcome.
This type of thinking andpositive reinforcement can
increase your child’s resilience,motivation and confidence andmake them better equipped todeal with disappointment in thefuture.
While failure and disappoint-ment are natural emotionsexperienced throughout ourlives, teaching your childrenhow to positively respond tosetbacks can set them on acourse for success down theroad. You can get more infor-mation about childhood devel-opment topics at the CampbellCounty Extension office.

ERLANGER – Gov. MattBevin said it has the opportuni-ty to be a “true gem” and amodel for others around thecountry.
Community partners St.Elizabeth Healthcare and SUNBehavioral Health brokeground on a windy Friday af-ternoon, Feb. 19, on a new be-havioral health hospital in Er-langer that is scheduled toopen in the second half of 2017.
When finished, the 149,000-square-foot facility on DolwickDrive will have 197 beds andapproximately 400 employeesand create an estimated 270jobs.
“There is a time to plan andtime to act, and today we act,”St. Elizabeth board chair Dr.James C. Votruba said. “We actwith decisiveness and cour-age.”
Garren Colvin, presidentand CEO of St. Elizabeth
Healthcare, and SUN presi-dent and CEO Steve Page bothsaid the hospital will solve theunmet needs of patients andtheir families who suffer frommental illness and/or sub-stance use disorders.
“SUN and St. Elizabeth havesimilar missions and are cul-turally aligned to solve theseneeds in our community, whichmakes this partnership a natu-ral fit,” Colvin said. “This jointventure helps piece togetherthe needed resources for fam-ilies dealing with these issuesas it will incorporate and inte-grate a care continuum.”
SUN, which stands for Solv-ing Unmet Needs, works withhospitals, physicians and be-havioral health providers tohelp improve resources incommunities around the coun-try. It’s based in New Jersey.
“In any community we join,we make a substantial invest-
ment of resources, both clini-cally and financially,” Pagesaid. “But, here, we have acommitted partner that is asflexible and innovative as wewill be to create a best-in-classhospital. It’s very rare to have apartnership like this.”
The organizations’ goal: Toprovide solutions to address alack of inpatient behavioralhealth services and chemicaldependency resources for ado-lescents and adults.
Bevin said the communitywill be better because of the ef-forts of St. Elizabeth and SUN.He quoted the proverb:“Where there is no vision, thepeople perish.”
At least 100 to 150 people at-tended the groundbreaking, in-cluding State Sen. Chris McDa-niel, Erlanger Mayor TysonHermes and Campbell CountyJudge-executive Steve Pen-dery.

Sports at all levelsfrom professional topeewee are entering thespring season. It is im-portant to rethink ourown beliefs and practiceswhen it comes to sports
and sports-manship.
Wheth-er theathlete, theparent, orthe generalspectator,we all havea role toplay inhealthyattitudestoward
competitions of all types.Most adults know
winning a competitionisn’t a prerequisite forfuture success in life.Sometimes, however, wecan get caught up in themoment and put toomuch pressure on ourchildren and others towin at whatever they do.
Good sportsmanship ismore important thanwinning. Good sports
treat teammates or co-workers, coaches orbosses, officials andothers with respect, fair-ness, generosity andcourtesy. They are alsoable to commend thegood performances ofothers, including theiropponents. They main-tain self-control in bothwins and losses.
Model good sports-manship. Others look toyou for appropriate waysto respond to difficultsituations. Reward effortand gracefully handlebad calls and defeats.
Emphasize the proc-
ess over the outcome.Give praise for accom-plishments and improve-ments. This will helpothers feel like a winner,even if the scoreboard orevaluation says other-wise.
Respect the coach’s orboss’s decisions and di-rections. Do not shoutconflicting messagesfrom the sideline or un-dermine them at thewater cooler.
If you witness some-one being a poor sport,discuss their behaviorand your objections to itwith them after the gameor event.
Most importantly,remember practicingand modeling life skillslike discipline, responsi-bility, commitment andteamwork are importantfor youngsters and adultsalike.

Question: Should I goahead and prune my hy-drangeas and otherbushes now, or wait untilthey start to grow?
Answer: AnnabelleHydran-gea, Hillsof SnowHydran-gea, Pee-gee Hy-drangea,and someof the oth-er white-bloomingtypes flow-er only onthe new
growth of spring, andthus should be prunedback now while they aredormant, before springgrowth begins, and evenbefore buds swell.
They can be prunedback severely if needed,and the new stems willstill produce flowers.Therefore, you can prunethem now, or within thenext two or three weeks.
Be careful when prun-ing other types of Hy-drangea that bloom on oldwood, such as OakleafHydrangea (little pruning
needed) or any of thepink or blue flowering“Bigleaf Hydrangea”cultivars (Hydrangeamacrophylla). The lattershould be pruned, asneeded, immediatelyafter the flowers fade inearly summer.
Only prune out deadbranch tips at this time,to avoid removing flowerbuds. Other landscapeshrubs that bloom in thespring (before June 1),such as Forsythias, lilacs,Fothergilla, and Vibur-nums, should not bepruned now. Wait untilafter they finish bloom-ing, then cut them backwithin two weeks afterflowers fade. Otherwise,you will be cutting off theflower buds if you prunethem now.
Finish all pruning oftrees and shrubs by July 1if possible, since that’swhen the days start get-ting shorter. Plants beginto harden off for winterin July, as they detect theshorter day-length. Prun-ing them back after thatcauses them to “de-hard-en” and go into a growthmode, thus reversing the
naturally occurring accli-mation (“hardening off”)process that gets themready for the winter. Forthis same reason, no treesor shrubs should bepruned in the fall, espe-cially butterfly-bush andsome of the other lesswinter-hardy plants. Asevere winter would thenbe more apt to kill thoseplants which had beenpruned late in the year.
When pruning treesand shrubs, rememberthese basic rules:1. Don’t top trees. Top-ping, also known as hat-racking or dehorning atree, “rounds off” the topof the tree, cutting allbranches back to thesame height. This leads toquick regrowth of manybranches which are evenweaker than the previousgrowth. It also leads to
more problems with sunscald, frost cracks, andvarious disease, insectand borer problems. Theroots also starve due tothe sudden, severe reduc-tion in sugars (“treefood”) due to the loss ofso many leaves andbranches at one time.2. Always cut back to aside branch or an out-wardly pointing bud,rather than leavingbranch stubs, which willdie back and cause decayto go into the main trunk.3. Don’t make “flushcuts” directly against thetrunk of the tree. Leavethe branch collar, theslight swelling at the baseof each branch where itattaches to the trunk or toa side branch.4. Never use tree paint,wound dressing, treesealant, wound seal, blacktar or black paint to covera wound. It has beenknown by professionalarborists for decades thatall these products areharmful, not helpful, tothe tree. Their black colorabsorbs excess heat,leading to sun scald andfrost cracks. They don’t
keep out the moisture,they trap it against thetree, leading to tree de-cay.
