Looking it inLittle Highlanders fourth-grade football assistant coach Maury Bibent keeps and eye onTyler Vincent as he make a catch during practice July 29. It was the first practice for theLittle Highlanders of the Oak Hills Youth football Association.
Although Joe Lind Sr. hasretired as president of theElder High School Dad’sClub it’s not likely he’ll bemissing many of the organi-zation’s Tuesday nightmeetings.
Elder means everythingto the Covedale resident,who graduated from theschool in 1953, and it’shard for him to walk awayafter serving 23 years as theDad’s Club president.
“I got sick, so I had tostep down,” he said.
“Otherwise I’d still bedoing it.”
Lind is battling cancerand “retired” from his rolein June, but still plans to beactive in the club and atElder.
A retired CincinnatiPolice officer, he has spentmore than two decades giv-ing of himself to his almamater.
Whether he was fixing
lunches at football two-a-days, cooking at the pan-cake breakfast andsenior/faculty golf outing,attending every sports ban-quet or preparing chili forthe Dad’s Club, he’s been adedicated fixture in theElder family.
Lind, whose lifetime of
service began in the U.S.Air Force, said it was diffi-cult to retire as club presi-dent because he’s thor-oughly enjoyed helpingtake care of the students,but he’s not ready to give itall up just yet.
“I’ll be down thereThursday helping the guys
cook for two-a-days,” hesaid.
Joe Lind Jr. said his fathersees volunteering at theschool as the right thing todo, and he’s never asked foranything in return.
In fact, when Elder hon-ored “Big Joe” with its 2009Altiora Award, the highestaward the school bestows,Lind Jr. said his father hadto be talked into acceptingit.
“He considers his life-long service to others as justpart of the deal,” Lind Jr.said.
“But truth be told theseexhibits are impeccableexamples for Elder studentsto emulate. Young peopleneed role models like mydad so they can see how lifeis supposed to be lived.”
He said his father’s lifehas been one selfless actafter another.
Lind Jr. said his fatherraised seven children withhis wife of more than 50years, Dorothy, and heworked extra jobs after hisshift at the police station toput his children throughCatholic schools.
“Dad never complained,”Lind Jr. said.
“He wanted to providehis family more than he wasprovided.
“He’s truly a hero tome,” he said.
He said his father wasalways available to volun-teer at church and schoolfunctions, and of course henever missed an Elder foot-ball game.
Lind Sr. has run the Elderpress box at football gamesfor 20 years, a volunteerservice he will continue toprovide this season.
Lind Jr. said his dad isknown as the “King of thePress Box.”
“He runs the press boxlike it is Fort Knox,” thejunior Lind said.
“One time telling GerryFaust (former Moeller HighSchool football coach) hedid not belong and had to sitwith the Moeller fans.”
Lind Jr. said that after hismother and his siblings,Elder is everything to hisfather, and he pitches in atthe school simply becausehe loves it.
“He would do anythingfor those guys,” he said.
Lind Sr. isn’t shy abouthis love of the Panthers, buthe is humble about his vol-unteer work at the school.
“It’s just something thathas to be done,” he said.
“Whenever they neededsomething they would ask,and I would do it.”
and grow as a sisterhood.“I always wanted to go
on a mission trip because Iwanted to get out of Cincin-nati and try something dif-ferent,” she said.
“Volunteering means alot to me, and working hardand sweating through myshirt to help others helps mefeel closer to God.”
After a day of workingon the houses the girlsenjoyed different activitieseach night.
Some nights the families
would sing the studentstheir favorite songs or playguitar. Other nights theSWAP hosts would take thestudents around to showthem their hometown.
On the final night thestudents invited the familiesto dinner at the church.
After dinner, they wentaround the room and every-one said their highs andlows for the week. The stu-dents were touched that thefamilies all said they had nolows because everything
was exciting to them, andthey were appreciative tothe volunteers for every-thing they did.
“After this mission trip Ibecame closer with myfriends, classmates and withGod,”said junior SarahKathmann, who also livesin Delhi Township.
“I thank Seton HighSchool and the SWAP pro-gram for giving me thisopportunity to help othersand know that I made a dif-ference.”

Mary Jo (Niklas) Dangel saidshe’s still in shock about beinginducted into Mother of MercyHigh School’s Alumnae Hall ofExcellence.
“I was just floored,” said Dan-gel, a Green Township residentwho graduated from Mercy in1964. “I had no idea I was even inthe running.”
Dangel recently joined sevenother Mercy alumnae who werewelcomed as this year’s inducteesto the hall of excellence.
The hall, now in its secondyear, recognizes exemplary Mercygraduates who achieve academicor professional excellence, con-tribute significantly to their profes-sions or their communities andwho positively promote Mercyand its values, said Lisa Fluege-man, the school’s spokeswoman.
“They are true ‘Women ofMercy,’” Fluegeman said.
“It was a pleasure to honoreight alums from all walks of lifeat the school’s annual HonorsBanquet, celebrating the successof these alumnae and allowingcurrent Mercy students to witnesswhat is possible as a woman ofMercy.”
Green Township resident Dr.
Libbey Spiess was among thisyear’s class, and she said she wasvery pleased to be a member ofthis year’s group of inductees.
“I just felt really honored thatpeople feel I’m worthy enough tobe included with the otherinductees,” she said.
“They are all such amazingwomen.”
Spiess, a West Side pediatricianwho graduated from the College ofMount St. Joseph and the Univer-sity of Cincinnati’s College of Med-icine after leaving Mercy, saidbeing inducted at the Honors Ban-quet was extra special for herbecause many of the Mercy stu-dents who were in attendance arepatients of hers.
“I’m really grateful for myMercy education,” she said.
She said although the hall ofexcellence honors alumnae foracademic and professional suc-cess, one of her favorite memoriesfrom her days at Mercy was beingpart of the state champion volley-ball team her senior year.
“That was one of my dreams inhigh school, to win a state cham-pionship, so it was a dream cometrue,” said Spiess, a 1983 gradu-ate.
Dangel said she was especiallyhonored to be recognized, consid-ering she was a late bloomer.
She said after high school shedevoted her time to raising a fam-ily and volunteering for variouscharitable organizations, and shedidn’t go to college until 1985.
She also graduated from theCollege of Mount St. Joseph andworked 18 years at St. AnthonyMessenger, a Catholic magazinewhere she worked as the assistantmanaging editor.
Dangel said the induction cere-mony was wonderful and aninstant flashback to the last timeshe was at Mercy – to see herdaughter being inducted into theNational Honor Society.
“It was really inspirational tohear the accomplishments of allthese women,” she said.
“I’m very honored.”

Imagine presenting a paper atthe 20th annual InternationalConference on Virginia Woolf atGeorgetown College in Kentucky,and meeting and sharing mealswith two of her family members.Now imagine you are only a 19-year-old college student.
Zachary Hacker, a junior at theCollege of Mount St. Joseph andcooperative education student inthe Sisters of Charity of CincinnatiCommunications office, did justthat.
Hacker sent an abstract to theconference planner of his essay on“The Scars: Virginia Woolf’s andCharles Dickens’ English Land-scapes of Potential.” In the essayhe explored the use of the Englishcountryside as both a descriptivetone setter and a literary device inVirginia Woolf’s “Between Acts”and Charles DIckens’ “HardTimes,” as well as in their person-al writings, such as diaries andessays.
“The highlight of the confer-ence for me,” Hacker said, “wasthe different interactions I hadwith members of the conference,most notably with Cecil Woolf(Virginia’s nephew) and his wife,Jean Moorcroft Wilson.
“Cecil described Virginia help-ing him with his Latin homework.
I learned so much about theirlives. Encounters like that aremore beneficial than any book. I’llnever forget when leaving theconference, after signing a bookfor me, Cecil gave me a hug andsaid, ‘Zacharias, my young friend,I am confident that our paths willcross again soon.’ On top of beingoutstanding individuals, they aretwo of the most fun, entertainingpeople I know. I look forward tomuch continued interaction.
“Though I was fairly youngcompared to everyone else, everyperson there was overly courteousand happy to talk with me. What
shocked me the most was howinviting and encouraging theentire collection of scholars were -from all over the world, the Unit-ed Kingdom, China, Japan, Aus-tralia and all over the U.S. I hadno problem feeling like a part ofthe community and hope to con-tinue in years to come.”
In fact, Hacker plans on pub-lishing his paper in the conferenceproceedings. Next year’s confer-ence will be in Glasgow, Scotland,under the theme “ContradictoryWoolf.”
“I expect to submit a paperthere, as well,” he said.

In 2009, the West Side boastedsome of the best golf teams in thecity, with Taylor winning the Cincin-nati Hills League, Elder finishing sec-ond in the Greater Catholic League,and Seton posting a solid season inthe Girls’ Greater Catholic League.
In 2010, those teams look to begeared up for another successfulseason.

In addition to Rapking, Tayloralso returns junior Matt Nickoson,who ranked second behind Rapkingin scoring average. Taylor alsoreturns juniors Kaleb Sisson andDylan Lee, both of whom ranked inthe top 25 in the CHL last season.
Taylor coach Russell Heath hasset lofty goals for this year’s team.
“I hope they go to state thisyear,” Heath said. “They have theability and the manpower to make itthere if they hold themselves totask.”
Heath’s squad has faces toughin-conference opponents inWyoming and Indian Hill.
“I’m just hoping and praying forthe best performance these youngmen have in them this year,” Heathsaid.
For Elder, last year’s second-place finish behind Moeller is justthe beginning, as the Panthersreturn their top two scorers from lastseason in junior Daniel Schwarz andsenior Michael Schwarz.
“We have high expectations,”Elder coach Mike Trimpe said. “Wehave everyone back and a goodrecord last year. It’s a good group ofguys who are hard working and wehave good depth. We have five orsix players who average in the mid30s. That’s a lot.”
Trimpe’s team also feature’s sen-ior Kevin Haas and sophomoreBrennen Walsh, both of whomaveraged 40 strokes per nine holesand were top-ten golfers in the GCLlast season.
Competition will still be fierce for
Elder in the GCL, as Moeller, St.Xavier and LaSalle always featurestrong teams.
Next door to Elder, Seton HighSchool returns a solid core of golfersfrom last year’s team, which fin-ished 14-5 overall and was 9-5 inGGCL play.
Junior Molly Arnold leads theway for Seton, averaging 45 strokeslast season. Joining Arnold aresophomore Andrea Toth and juniorSarah Banfill.
“We have three good core play-ers and a couple who could developinto good players,” Seton coachLindsey Thiessen said. “We could bereally good or really bad dependingon how they develop.”
“I’m really excited because wehave the potential for four or fivegood golfers,” Thiessen said.
Competing against Seton in theGGCL is Mother of Mercy HighSchool, which is hoping for arebound year following last year’s5-12 mark.
“We were really bad last year, sowe’re looking to improve and findmore consistency this year,” Mercycoach Kathy Dinkelacker said. “Wehave no place to go but up.”
Mercy returns a pair of seniors inEmma Jones and Lauren Pflum,both of whom ranked in the top 60in the GGCL standings.
“They’ve worked hard this sum-mer and should see a definiteimprovement,” Dinkelacker said.
Likewise, both Oak Hills HighSchool girls’ and boys’ teams are inrebuilding years.
The Oak Hills’ boys graduatedseven seniors from last year’s team,
and first-year coach Aaron Strine isunsure what his squad will look like.
“We’re going to be very young,”Strine said. “We only have onereturning senior but lots of incomingfreshmen who I feel will be veryhelpful.”
Strine is hoping those youngplayers can step up and contributeright away, and meet his goals of a160 team average and a top-fivefinish by beating top Greater MiamiConference programs Lakota Westand Mason.
“We’ll be young, but I think we’llbe very competitive,” Strine said.“Look for big things, if not this yearthen in the future.”
Likewise, the Oak Hills girls areentering a rebuilding year, losingthree seniors from last year, two ofwhich are now playing collegiately.
Sophomore Mackenzie Lau-mann, who ranked 30th in the GMCwith a 45-stroke average, is theHighlanders’ top returning golfer.Joining Laumann are senior captainLauren Heugel and sophomoreJaime Sanzere.
“We’ll improve as the seasongoes on,” said coach Sandy Fern-bacher. “I’ve got three new kids sowe’ll get off to a rough start.”
Fernbacher credits new juniorvarsity coach Kike Kehling withworking hard to prepare the new-comers and helping to recruit newtalent to Oak Hills.
“We’d like to get to districts thisyear, but it will be a stretch,” Fern-bacher said. “Mackenzie Laumannmight make it individually though.”
High school golf season beginsthe week of Aug. 10.

Elder High School Daniel Schwarz chips onto agreen at Miami Whitewater Golf Course inOctober 2009 during play in the boys Division 1golf sectional tournament. He and MichaelSchwarz will lead Elder in 2010.
Elder High School cross coun-try coach Steve Spencer has aproblem.
But it’s a good one.“For a lot of the kids,” he said,
“I have to keep them from trainingtoo much.”
After finishing 10th last year atthe Division I State Cross CountryChampionships, the Panthersappear poised to return to SciotoDowns.
They’ll be led by senior JoshMakin, the reigning GCL-SouthRunner of the Year.
“He’ll definitely be one of ourtop guys,” Spencer said. “I thinkhe should be a top-10 runner cer-tainly at regionals, and he’ll be agood performer at state.”
Also returning is JoshRieskamp, a First-Team All-League performer.
“He’s a different kind of runnerthan (Makin),” Spencer said.“Makin has good speed. Rieskampis more of an endurance runner.He should be in the top 15 atregionals.”
Rounding out the top three forElder is senior Corey Zielinski,who has been a few ticks abovethe 16-minute mark this summer.
“He’s a hard worker,” Spencersaid.
Also contributing will be jun-iors Jake Clark, whose intensityhas impressed Spencer, andNathan Lauck, a strong runnerwho missed districts last year dueto illness.
“I think we’ll have a betterteam than last year, but we can’tcontrol what other teams do,”
Spencer said. “La Salle, St. X,Mason, Dayton Carroll, Centerville,Lakota West – these are some real-ly good teams in the region – andonly four get to state.”
Still, Spencer said his team hasa good chance to be one of thosefour squads.
“I think we’re working realhard and have a good attitude,”he said.
“We’ve got a lot of guys back,so we have some experience. Ithink we’re all set.”

SIDELINES
PROVIDED.
Storming the competitionThe Covedale Storm, which is made up of 12 and 13-year-olds, won the Westside District 14 KnotholeTournament on July 10. The team’s record for the season was 16-3. They will go on to play in the CityTournament next week. In back, from left, are Max Holloway, Brandon Lane, Assistant Coach Russ Steadman,Cameron Estridge, Josh Breadon, Chris Reed, Head Coach Jeff Barnett, Lenny Belew and Jordan Lane. In frontare Nick Barnett, David Offenbacker, Coleman Barnett, Tommy Steadman and Frank Smith. Not Pictured isAssistant Coach Rich Ausdenmore and Alex Ausdenmore.
After winning a state titlein 2008 and finishing as staterunner-up in 2009, the St.Xavier High School golf teamwill be without Brian Shircliff,a 1992 Bomber graduate whohad coached the team since1998.
The program, however, isin safe hands. Alex Kepley,who served as Shircliff’s assis-tant the last six years, willassume the head coachingposition.
“Brian developed an incred-ible program,” said Kepley, whograduated from St. X in 1985.“I’m very excited and blessed tohave this opportunity.
Leading the team this yearare a pair of first-team all-league performers, seniors-to-be Smith Brinker and GeorgeRohde.
“They’ve had a veryextensive summer tourna-ment schedule and have hadgreat success in the past,”Kepley said. “As seniors, theybring the experience of play-ing at the state champi-
onships. I look for them to beour anchors.”
Other contributors willinclude seniors-to-be BradyCarlson, Nick Stenger and CJHowitt, as well as juniors-to-be Jay Brockhoff, Nick Colvin,Alex Hannan, Lee House, JackMitchell and Jake Clements.Joey Arcuri, meanwhile, maybe the top sophomore.
“We’re lucky to have somany athletes at St. X whoplay golf,” Kepley said.“We’ve got a lot of guys withgood potential.”
Despite their dominanceover the last two years, theBombers haven’t won aleague title since 2007, whenthey captured their fourth con-secutive conference crown.
Last season, St. X finishedsecond in the state but third inthe GCL-South. Kepley antici-pates another tough season -not just in the league, but inthe city as well.
“Moeller, Elder, La Salle,Lakota East, Lakota West -and I’m probably forgettingsome teams - have incredibleplayers,” he said.
Kepley added that hiscoaching philosophy is similarto that of his predecessor.
“Like Brian, my emphasisis on the short game,” he said.
“All the guys hit the ball amile, and that’s great; but ifyou can’t put the ball in thehole, it doesn’t matter how faryou hit it.”
Kepley hopes for a returnto the state championships butsaid the success of this seasondoes not hinge on that.
“You can’t control howother teams play,” he said.
“If we do everything thatwe can to prepare and beeffective and efficient so weminimize our mental mis-takes, that’s all I can ask ofthese young men.”
The time is now for theLa Salle High School crosscountry team.
The Lancers return fiveof their top seven runnersfrom a team that hasadvanced to state each ofthe last two years.
They’ll be led by seniorTravis Hawes.
“He’s got the ability,”Lancer head coach FrankRusso said, “to be a top-fivestate finalist and could fin-ish as high as second to(Mason senior) Zach Wills.”
Hawes finished 12th atthe state championships asa freshman and was GCL-South Runner of the Year asa sophomore.
Last season, however, hestruggled through injuryand illness – and he wasn’talone. Senior EthanBokeno, among others, alsomissed significant time.
“It’s no secret,” Russosaid. “The last two years,(the problem) hasn’t beenour talent. It’s been our abil-ity to stay healthy.”
If the Lancers can avoidinjury, Russo said his teamhas a legitimate shot at astate championship.
Along with Hawes, afive-time state-qualifier, andBokeno, a four time-statequalifier, La Salle returnsseniors Kevin Kluesenerand Matt Nie, as well assophomore Jacob McNama-ra. Juniors Clayton Cardinal,Drew Michel and Marc Niealso figure to be in the mix.
“We’ve got great talentin front and great depth inback,” Russo said. “We’rehoping to get some youngguys contributing.”
La Salle has beenarguably the most consis-tent program in Ohio overthe last 15 years, advancingto state all but two yearssince 1996. From 2000 to2006, the Lancers won twostate titles and had fourstate runner-up finishes.
In 2007, the Lancersfailed to qualify for state forthe first time since 1998. LaSalle returned to SciotoDowns each of the last two
years but placed 15th and16th, respectively; prior to2008, Russo, who took overin 1983, hadn’t had a stateteam finish lower than 10th.
“We’re trying to work onthe intensity and quality ofour work ethic,” Russo said.“We’re trying to get theguys to understand what ittakes.”
Russo, who has beenpleased with his team’ssummer workouts thus far,has motivated his runnersby recounting tales of for-mer Lancers who won statetitles and earned All-Ameri-
ca status.“What separated those
guys was their work ethicand their intensity,” Russosaid.
La Salle opens the sea-son with the FinishTimingInvitational at WilmingtonCollege Aug. 28. Other keymeets include the MidwestCatholic Championship atIndian Riffle Park in Ketter-ing Sept. 25 and the Mid-west Meet of Champions atHilliard Darby Oct. 2.
The GCL Meet will beheld at Rapid Run Park Oct.16. La Salle has won leaguethree of the last five years,most recently in 2008.
“We’ve got a nice coregroup that has talent and alot of varsity experience,”Russo said. “We’ll get ourconfidence from how wellwe prepare on a day-to-daybasis.”

unemployment benefits? Whyor why not? For how long?
“The better questions are, ‘Is itgood for the U.S. economy tomake it so that those who areworking have to pay those whoare not working?’ and ‘Who real-ly is paying for these benefits?’Unfortunately, I think the answerto the latter is my children andgrandchildren.”

“As a person who was unem-ployed last year (before she
became one of the underemployed- but happy to be working again)I know how scary it can be look-ing for work in this economy.What I received from unemploy-ment did not cover all my expens-es and I had to seek help from myfamily. I still have friends whowere part of the same lay-off andare out there everyday looking forfull-time work. They have beenable to find some part-time work,but those come and go. I hate tosee us get into more debt, but forthose who have not given up try-ing to get off the governmentdole, it is a lifeline for their fami-lies. If it isn’t there, you will havemore foreclosures and more peo-
ple on other government assistantprograms.”

Archibald Stuart was the lastmayor of Fernbank. One of hislast duties as mayor was to dedi-cate the Indian statue that ElizaThornton donated to honor herhusband.
His last duty was to presideover the annexation of Fernbankto Cincinnati.
Archibald was born in London,England, April 22, 1846. He wasthe son of Archibald and Sarah D.(Holland) Stuart. The Stuart fami-ly came to the United States in1849. Archibald’s father was acivil engine who worked on theLouisville & Nashville Railway in1851, when that railroad wasbeing constructed through Ten-nessee. His father died in 1857,leaving the 11 year old withoutthe means for a college education.After attending the public schoolsof Covington Ky., Archibald tooka several short term positions thateventually led to his owning hisown company.
His first position was as aprinter, where he received hisbusiness training. Then he choseto work on a Kentucky farm forfive years. After that he became adiscount clerk for five years at a
Covington bank,and also servedon the Coving-ton City Council.
He gave upthe bankingbusiness towork for JohnMcCoy & Sons,grain merchantsfor four years.Then he went towork in thetobacco busi-ness with W. S.
Isherwood & Co. Eventually itbecame Power and Stuart andmanufactured fine cut tobacco inToledo, Ohio. He remained therefor three years.
In February 1880, ArchibaldStuart married Lillian Worthing-ton, daughter of Henry and Maria(Slack) Worthington, of MasonCounty, Ky. Henry Worthingtonwas very prominent as a tobaccomerchant in Cincinnati and wasalso the founder of the Chesa-peake and Ohio Railroad Bridge.
In 1881, Archibald joined hisfather-in-law in the tobacco ware-house business on Front Street inCincinnati. Four years later he
organized the Central Thomson-Huston Electric Co. on FourthStreet between Plum Street andCentral Avenue. This was the firstelectric light company west ofNew York City. It was a pioneerenterprise. It was highly success-ful and soon there were similarorganizations popping up all overthe country.
Archibald continued his elec-tric light business until 1893 and
then became connected with thenewspaper business. He was amember of the board of directorsof the United States Paper GoodsCompany from 1902 until hisdeath in 1912. This business waslocated at. 221-235 West Pearl St.Pearl Street was lined with manysmall successful businesses.
Archibald moved his family toFernbank around 1895. He builtone of the grandest houses in

Over the last week, SteveDriehaus used thousands of ourtax dollars to send out glossybrochures and authored a guestcolumn in this newspaper in adesperate attempt to convince usthat he has not betrayed his pro-life values.
But actions speak louder thanwords.
Driehaus supported BarackObama, who’s virtually onlyappointed pro-choice judges. Thevery first vote Driehaus cast inCongress was to make NancyPelosi Speaker of the House – shehas a 0 percent voting record withNational Right to Life and 100percent voting record withPlanned Parenthood and NARAL.
And the most troubling fact isthat National Right to Life onlyscores Driehaus as voting for pro-life issues a shocking 33 percentof the time.
Perhaps the biggest betrayal tothe pro-life community was whenhe voted for the health carereform legislation.
When Nancy Pelosi said thatCongress would have to “pass thehealth care bill before we actuallyknew what was in it,” she wasn’tkidding. Unfortunately, the sur-prises keep coming.
At the time, the pro-life com-munity sounded the alarm thatthe legislation would be used toprovide taxpayer-funding for
a b o r t i o n s ,despite the exec-utive order thatP r e s i d e n tObama claimedwould blocksuch funding.Many in Con-gress, including
Steve Driehaus,scoffed at thatnotion.
Well, now, wefind out the pro-life community
was right. Several states attempt-ed to establish insurance plansthat would use federal tax dollarsto pay for abortions using a sec-tion of the legislation that thenon-partisan CongressionalResearch Service stated the exec-utive order “does not specificallyaddress.”
As a result, abortions could befunded with tax dollars throughsuch plans despite the executiveorder. It was only after pro-lifeadvocates raised concerns thatthe Department of Health andHuman Services (HHS) appliedabortion restrictions to suchplans.
Unbelievably, when faced withdirect evidence that the executiveorder wouldn’t block federal fund-ing for abortions in this instance,Steve Driehaus argued the exactopposite in his column last week-
that the executive order is working.If Driehaus’ assertions were
accurate, and President Obama’sexecutive order contained aneffective prohibition on taxpayer-funded abortions, there would beno need for HHS to take separateaction in order to prevent abor-tions being funded with tax dol-lars under these insurance plans.
Moreover, had Steve Driehausand Bart Stupak kept their prom-ise not to vote for health carereform if it provided tax dollars forabortions, there would be no needfor this discussion at all.
Unfortunately, that didn’toccur. As a result, we are facedwith health care reform that lacksan effective prohibition on tax-payer-funded abortion.
And no amount of rhetoric orglossy taxpayer-funded brochuresfrom Steve Driehaus can changethat fact.
Also, it’s important to remem-ber the other shortcomings in theDemocrat’s massive power-grabin health care reform. It hurt sen-iors by cutting Medicare by morethan $500 billion, it created $569billion in new taxes and it couldraise insurance premiums by asmuch as $2,100 annually on mil-lions of Americans. We deservebetter.

Summer means ice cream inmy book. Whether you “share thelove” or like yours “… made thesincere way,” you can consumeall the fat you should get in oneday all crammed in to two scoops.
What a treat. What are some ofthe other edible joys of summer?
Sweet corn – picked early inthe day, purchased from a freshvegetable stand, grilled or boiledand slathered with butter and salt.M-m-m-m – if that isn’t good foryou!
If you aren’t drooling yet,think about fresh tomatoes pickedfrom the vine, cucumbers thatseem to grow to full lengthovernight, and berries of all kinds.
As a child, my family bottledour own homemade root beer.
The glass bottles we hoardedwere carefully washed and mydad mixed up a big batch thatstarted with Hires Root Beerextract.
The recipe included sugar andyeast and I’m sure he increasedthe yeast.
From my youngest-child per-spective mom’s canning kettlelooked huge to me and we wereall a part of the process of dippingout the black/brown liquid, pour-ing the mixture through the fun-nel to the perfect level and cap-ping those bottles with a handbottle-capper.
I’m quite sure the whole proce-dure would have been faster with-out the help of four children butwe were all full participants in theritual.
Of course, summer isn’t justabout food and beverages.
It includes those great light-ning storms and late summerevenings punctuated by the fire-flies glowing in the back yard.
Every season has its positiverituals and qualities and everyseason has its drawbacks.
The glorious colors of fall pre-cede the blisters from raking theleaves.
Winter’s icy sidewalks are bal-anced by the warmth of thehearth and the beauty of
sparkling snowas seen from awarm house.
Spring inC i n c i n n a t imeans one love-ly tree afteranother poppingout in all itsglory.
It alsoincludes pot-holes poppingout everywhereas well.
When I tellpeople I used to live in Californiathey often ask if or when wemight move back there.
Even if the cost of living washalfway sane, I still prefer thechanges of the seasons of theMidwest to the rather boringminor changes from season toseason in a temperate climate.
My answer is, “It’s a nice placeto visit but I really prefer to livewhere people talk about theweather.”
Life has its seasons, too. Somemay consider a particular agematches only one season.
But people can be in an awak-ening season like spring at retire-ment as well as graduation, asnewlyweds or entering a newcareer.
A figurative summer stormmay toss you around but it canbring relief from an emotionaldrought.
We may be just as reluctant to“let go” of certain hurts as thetrees are to let go of their leaves.But be assured that letting go ispart of the plan before winter.Spring will come again.

Riverview-Delhi Hills Kiwanis Club member David Stone prepares the trophies for presentation for the winners at the Rollin’ On TheRiver Car Show at Fernbank Park.
It might have been a hot and humid Sunday, but carlovers surely didn’t notice as classic cars rolled into Fern-bank Park for the annual Rollin’ on the River car show.
The show was hosted by Riverview-Delhi Hills KiwanisClub in partnership with the Hamilton County Park District.
This year’s was one of the biggest – if not the biggest –in the show’s 21 years.
More than 80 awards were presented at the end of theday to cars off all types, including a 1922 Ford Model T,
1931 Fore Deluxe Roadster, Corvettes, mustangs, an Austi-no Healey and even a 1952 Studebaker pick-up truck.
Next year’s car show is scheduled for July 24 in FernbankPark. All proceeds raised during the show benefits the BoyScouts of America, Operation Youth and other local charitiesthat support youth education. More than $250,000 hasbeen raised since 1990.
For a list of the winners from this year’s show, go towww.rollinontherivercarshow.com.

Father Lou is off this week. TheCommunity Press is running a columnthat was orginally published Jan. 3,2007.
1. You will receive a body.You may like it or dislike it, but it’syours for life. Make friends with it,respect it, and listen to it. Yourbody always tells you manytruths about yourself.
2. There are no mistakes,only lessons. You are made togrow, and growth is a process oftrial and error, learning, and mov-ing on. The pains of past failuresare even more a teacher than thejoys of gains and successes. Liveand learn!
3. A lesson will be repeateduntil it is learned. Realize that
you cannot keep performing thesame behavior and expect differ-ent results. Who, or whatever,hurts you and goes against yourtrue growth, let go of and moveon. Wise up!
4. The most importantthings in life are loving rela-tionships. Your Creator’s initialadvice was, “It is not good to bealone.” That was not adviceagainst enjoying solitude but awarning about being unconnectedand emotionally alone. Being inorbit around your own ego makesa mighty small world and a selfishperson. Care about others! Learnto love!
5. Other people can serve asmirrors. The significant traits youlike or despise about another per-
son frequently reflect somethingunconscious you like or despiseabout yourself - but which youfind it hard to admit. Know thy-self!
6. Whether it’s a place or atime of life, “there” is notalways better than “here.” Toooften the best seems to be hap-pening “there.” But if you get“there” it then becomes a “here”and you will likely yearn foranother “there” that seems betterthan “here.” Don’t always be liv-ing looking at a “there.” Alwaysappreciate the “here,” the “now!”
7. Every human person hasmany aspects: body, soul,mind and heart. Leaving anypart of yourself undeveloped pro-duces a lop-sided and unfulfilled
person. To the extent that youdevelop all the parts of yourhumanness makes your life eithera work of art or a blurred picture.Become more whole!
8. The most wonderful partof you lies deep within. It’scalled “soul,” or “core,” or “trueself.” It starts talking to you theloudest in the second half of yourlife. If you listen, it will impartwisdom, truths, and exquisiteunderstanding you’ve never hadbefore. If you don’t listen, you’llmiss the meaning of your life.Don’t be afraid to reflect! To listen!
9. You create your own cli-mate. That’s because of the powerof the thoughts you entertain, theattitudes you keep, the choicesyou make. Gripe and think nega-
tively and yourlife will alwaysbe overcast anddark. Appreci-ate, and you’llstart noticing themany good things you have. Youget the emotional climate youdevelop. Why rain on yourself?
10. There are many “impor-tant” things in this life, andthere are a few things that arereally “essential.” Never, neverexchange the essential for theimportant.
Father Lou Guntzelman is a Catholicpriest of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati.
I’m seeing more andmore companies these daysoffering warranties thatclaim to cover all your homeappliances. But, is it a goodidea to sign up, or are youbetter off saving yourmoney and just paying forrepairs as needed?
It’s not unusual to find awhole house appliance war-ranty offered by the sellerwhen you looking to buy anexisting house.
Now some nationalfirms, and even some localappliance repair shops,have begun offering this toall.
Sherri Burton of Ameliareceived an ad from anational company for sucha warranty for about $40 a
m o n t hand said itlooked likea greatdeal.
“ I fsomethingw e n tw r o n gyou wereto contactthem and
you got a claim number. Iguess they subcontract.They would come out here.I would pay a $75deductible,” said Burton.
Soon after signing up sheencountered a problem withher stove and called, butwas very surprised at theresponse she received.
“Bottom line, they didn’t
want to fix it. They justwanted to replace a knoband then, if something elsewent wrong, they’d have tocome back here and fix it,”she said.
Burton had to pay the$75 deductible but says shejust went out and bought anew stove.
Next, Burton’s furnacestarted making a lot of noiseso she again called the war-ranty company.
A repairman came outbut, “He said as long as thefurnace was running hecan’t do anything. It has tonot be running,” she said.
The furnace then startedoverheating so she calledagain.
“He turned the furnace
on and said, ‘As long as thefurnace is running there’snothing I can do.’ I said,‘Would you like a Cokebecause after it kicks on thesecond or third time it’sgoing to overheat?’ Well, itdid,” said Burton.
Burton was then told therepairman couldn’t fix thefurnace because he couldn’tget parts since it was tooold.
But now, in the warmsummer weather, the airconditioner is also overheat-ing so she can’t get herhouse cool.
“I thought it was going tobe a great company for $40a month, $75 deductible,”said Burton. “It’s about sav-ing me money, but appar-
ently it’s about making themmoney.”
The company wouldn’trespond to my phone callsso I had Burton file a com-plaint with the Better Busi-ness Bureau.
The company hasresponded to complaintsfiled with the bureau.
After Burton filed hercomplaint, the warrantycompany sent out anotherrepairman to check the fur-nace.
He found the problemwas with the blower motorand it had to be replaced.
Burton had to pay $500,but the new motor solvedthe problem. Now Burton istrying to get back that $500from the warranty compa-
ny.The Better Business
Bureau says it’s receivedabout 700 complaints aboutthis company from peoplewho say the firm would notpay for needed repairs.
In response, the compa-ny says consumers need toread the contract thorough-ly and fully understandexactly what’s included andwhat’s excluded.
Bottom line, you need tobe very careful beforeagreeing to any of thesewarranties.Howard Ain answers consumer
in their pen. This morning,when I went out to feedthem, I saw a trail of whitefeathers leading down to theriver bank.
Not a good sign – Iimmediately thought “rac-coons.”
And that’s how our onlywhite feathered hen,“Whitey,” as the kids calledher, met her untimelydemise.
So you can understandwhen I say I just don’t feellike sharing any recipestoday for, you guessed it:chicken.
Easy pork shoulderfor barbeque
There’s an old-fashionedtype of meat that folks arestarting to rediscover.
It’s fresh pork shoulder(and when it’s smoked it’ssometimes called cottageham or smoked pork butt).
I use it to make goettasince it has a nice layer offat which keeps the goettamoist. (See sidebar onGlier’s Goettafest.) I also useit to make barbeque.
It’s so delicious that I’llsave some of the roastedpork to serve for supperbefore I make the barbecue,and serve it with boilednoodles.
Preheat oven to 450degrees. Score the fat on topof a boneless pork shoulder,about 5 to 7 pounds.
Season with salt andpepper and place, fat sideup, in a Dutch oven orroasting pan with about acup of water. Roast untilsome of the fat has melted,about an hour.
Remove pan and reducetemperature to 350 degrees.Tightly cover pan with foilor a lid. Cook about three tofour hours more, or untilmeat is tender enough toshred with forks.
When cool enough tohandle, remove fat if youwant and shred meat intobite size pieces. This freezeswell. To serve, stir infavorite barbecue sauce totaste, and heat until hotthroughout.
Rita’s do-aheadmarinated slaw
This is delicious with thebarbecue, and a bit differentthan the norm.
Salad:Combine and set aside
while making dressing:
6-8 cups shredded cab-bage or cole slaw mix
2 carrots, sliced thin orshredded
1 bell pepper, chopped1 cup onion, chopped
Dressing:Bring to a boil, then sim-
mer, uncovered, 10-15 min-utes or so, until slightlythickened:
1 cup sugar1 cup cider vinegar1⁄2 cup water2 teaspoons mustard
seed (optional but good) or1⁄2 teaspoon celery seed (alsooptional)
Pour dressing over cab-bage mixture. Cover andrefrigerate four hours orovernight. Stir before serving.
Tips from Rita’s gardenHarvesting basil: Be
sure and snip the flowerheads that are forming onbasil.
Otherwise, energy willgo into the flowers andseeds, and leaf productionwill suffer.
The flowers of all culi-nary herbs are edible. (I do
let one plant go to seed fornext year’s crop).
Roasted whole plumtomatoes: These make adelicious sauce for pasta.You can also freeze them upto six months. Preheat ovento 450 degrees.
Toss tomatoes with a bit ofolive oil and season with saltand pepper. Lay in single layeron rimmed baking sheets.
If you have some freshthyme, tuck several sprigsin between the tomatoes.Bake until they burst, about45 to 60 minutes, rotatingpans halfway through. Letcool, then coarsely chop.
Can you help?Salsa verde at Rincon
Mexicano restaurant inEastgate. For Denise Mar-
tinez. “I have tried severaldifferent recipes and can’tseem to duplicate the one atRincon.”
Applespice Junction’schicken tortilla soup. ForAmy. “I cannot figure outhow to duplicate this chainrestaurant’s soup.” She saidit has a little spice flavor,and thicker than otherchicken tortilla soups.
The Polo Grille’s cornand tomato salsa andBravo!’s original focacciabread and dipping oil. ForJane in Montgomery. She saidthe salsa looked pretty simplewith roasted corn, tomatoes,garlic salt. “So good.”
And about Bravo!’sfocaccia, Jane said theychanged their recipe and it’snot nearly as good as theoriginal, which she thinksmay have had mashedpotatoes in it.
Like Panera Bread’sblack bean soup. ForMaryAlice Staats, a ForestHills Journal reader. “Thereare a couple in some of mycookbooks but none thatcompare with theirs. Anyhelp would be appreciated.”

“Whoever in trouble and sorrow needs your help, give itto him. Whoever in anxiety or fear needs your friendship,give it to him. It isn’t important whether you approve of hisconduct. It isn‘t important what his creed or nationality maybe.”- E. N. West
We all know what it means to have someone by our sideand say,“I understand.”To understand is to have compassion.It is not to condemn, but to reach out in concern and love.Compassion is a very special manifestation of love; it is aform of love that springs from the deepest recesses of theheart.
People who can feel compassion arefortunate because it gives them a sense ofbeing needed and useful in a world whichhopefully they can change for the better ...
Wouldn‘t today be a good day for all of us tobe more compassionate?...

Where has this summergone? When I was a kid,my parents told me howtime just goes faster andfaster the older you get, andby golly they were right!
So as we cruise into themonth of August, here are afew things for you to dodoing in your garden andlandscape:
• Keep watering asneeded. Remember, oneinch of rainfall every 10days or so for established
plants, sosupplementas needed.Less fre-quent water-ing, but deepand thor-ough whenyou do.Newly plant-ed plantsg e n e r a l l y
require watering more often.Not sure how much rain
fall your yard has gotten?
Install that rain gauge!• Keep deadheading
those spent flowers onannuals, perennials androses. Removal of spentflowers encourages newgrowth, and new growthmeans more flowers. It mayalso help to keep thoseplants from gettingstretched and leggy.
• Annuals lookingstretched and leggy? Cutthem back! Most annualsrespond nicely to a goodhaircut right now. Cut themback, water as needed, and
within a couple of weeksyou’ll get new growth, newflowers, and a whole newplant as we head into thefall months. Continue feed-ing annuals and perennialsas needed, and keep feedingthose container plantings asneeded.
• Stop feeding woodytrees and shrubs at thisstage, and be cautiousabout any pruning.Whole branch removal canbe done, but be cautiousabout severe pruning. Wedon’t want to encouragenew growth that may notharden off for the winter,and we don’t want toremove spring flower budsthat have already formed orwill be forming this month.
• Now’s the time tostart that fall garden.Beets, cabbage, carrots, col-lards, mustards, turnips,radishes, broccoli, Brusselssprouts, cauliflower, lettuceand spinach can all beplanted right now, as wellas a late crop of beans.These are all cool tempera-ture loving plants; as they
mature, they’ll be maturingin cooler fall weather.
• Keep planting peren-nials for colors that comeback year after year.
• Now’s the time to digand divide those iris. Cutthe leaves back to a third oftheir size, dig the rhizomeclump and wash soil off, cutrhizomes apart so each sec-tion has one healthy fan ofleaves, inspect and pitchrotted (decayed) or borer-infested rhizomes, prep soiland replant. Water well, andwater as needed.
• Keep harvestingfruits and veggies asthey ripen. Over ripenedfruits left in the garden areperfect habitats for insectsand diseases. Keep harvest-ing those herbs, and startdrying them for winter use.Don’t let those annual herbsflower, as that tells the plantto stop growing.
• Keep mowing thegrass on a regular basis(never remove more than athird of the blades each timeyou mow), and mow at ahigher level rather than
lower (3 to 3.5 inches).Change directions each timeyou mow, and keep thosemower blades sharpened.Throw those clippings backinto the turf. (Make sureyour clippings don’t make itout onto the street and windup washing down into thestreet drains.) We’ll evalu-ate the lawn for Septemberrenovation in mid-August.
• Fall is for planting, sotake the time in August toget your planting plans inplace for the fall. Takeadvantage of local independ-ent garden stores expertise,which offer landscape designservices, and get your land-scape plans done now. Or, ifyou need professional instal-lation as well, make anappointment with your land-scape designer.
Talk to you next time, inthe garden!

Up, up and away wentthe spinning disc of pizzadough.
Wider and wider it spreadas it spun.
Returning to earth, thedough landed in the c-shaped cupped hands ofBuddy LaRosa.
With a slight twist of historso, a quick turn of hisarms and some Italiano flair,the dough flew again.
“That’s about the size of alarge pizza,” Cincinnati’sprimo pizza purveyor saidThursday night as he spreadthe dough on a prep table.
“Here!” he called to JaredMoore of White Oak. “Youtry it! Piece of cake!”
He tossed the dough tothe unsuspecting 26-year-oldsong and dance man.
Moore plays the title rolein the musical, “Everybody’sBuddy.” The show honorsthe life of the soon to be 80-year-old pizza baron, philan-thropist and celebrated softtouch.
“I went to the hospitaltoday,” La Rosa saidbetween tosses. “Four peoplegave me their business cardsand asked for my help.” Heplans to lend each one ahand.
“Everybody’s Buddy”revolves around two kinds ofdough. There’s the stuffmade from flour. Then,there’s the dough from a suc-cess story of a kid who grewup “in a broken home filled
with love” and grew theWest Side pizzeria he openedin 1954 into a chain grossingabout $132 million in 2009and garnering well over halfthe pizza business in Cincin-nati.
The musical’s premiereruns Aug. 11-14 at the Col-lege of Mount St. Joseph The-ater. That’s where Thursday’sdough tossing lesson took
place.It follows LaRosa’s life
from before his birth to hischildhood growing up inCincinnati’s Little Italy,through the opening of hisfirst pizzeria on the West Sidein 1954. It culminates in a1973 scene where an entirecommunity of student ath-letes and coaches helpLaRosa rebuild his flagship
Boudinot Avenue pizzeriaafter a potentially devastat-ing fire.
“My father loves Cincin-nati,” says Mike LaRosa,CEO of LaRosa’s and Buddy’sson. “’Everybody’s Buddy’ isas much about the people inthe community who raisedand supported him as it isabout Buddy. So, in manyways, this tells a Cincinnatistory, too. So, we are ecstaticthat we can celebrate his80th birthday with thosewho have meant so much toBuddy and our family.”
Buddy LaRosa celebrateshis 80th birthday on August25th. Each night, he’ll jointhe cast onstage for a “HappyBirthday” finale number. Pro-ceeds from the event willbenefit Cincinnati Children’sHospital Medical Center.
The idea for the musicalstarted over a decade agowhen Buddy LaRosa’scousin and business associ-ate, Harry Panaro, broughtthe idea to Dick Ruehrwein,after enjoying another one ofRuehrwein’s musical produc-tions. Ruehrwein, who haswritten 15 plays, all of whichhave been produced, metagain with LaRosa andPanaro nearly two years agoto talk seriously about mov-ing forward with the musical.
“From the beginning, itwas important to me that theproceeds be donated toCincinnati’s Children’s Hospi-tal,” said Buddy LaRosa whocredits Children’s Hospitalwith saving the life of hisdaughter, Denise. “The pro-duction of the musical wasabout doing something thatwould inspire and engage thelocal community. It is a cele-bration of the communitythat has guided and support-ed me throughout my life.”
