BY BRETT ROLLER Sun staff The 2010 Veteran’s Day ceremony at the Clermont County Courthouse was spe- cial this year. It featured the dedication ceremony of the brand new Korean War memorial in front of the court- house. More than 30 Korean War veterans were given the seats of honor surrounded by a large crowd. The keynote address was given by Korean War veteran Norm Nadow. He gave a his- tory of the Korean War and the events that led up to the fighting from its occupation by China from 1914 to 1945 to the signing of the cease-fire armistice in 1953. He said the American armed forces were ill-prepared for war when the North Koreans crossed the 38th parallel on June 25, 1950 due to defense department budget cuts after World War II but President Harry Truman insisted that communism must not be allowed to spread to South Korea or it would become a template for the spread of communism throughout the world. “Many say we didn’t win that war,” Nadow said. “But we did what Truman said had to be done. We stopped the commies in their tracks.” In addition to halting the spread of communism, Nadow said the Korean War proved to America the importance of maintaining a standing mili- tary that is ready to react to any situation. “Never again have we allowed the American military to be unprepared,” Nadow said. “We will never forget their bravery and sacrifice both in Korea and when they came home.” He concluded his speech by leading the crowd in singing “God Bless America.” Korea and Vietnam Veteran Bob Derr played an instru- mental role in getting the proj- ect under way and getting the memorial in place at the court- house. He said Korea was a difficult war because it was fought by young men, many of whom had lost fathers or brothers in World War II or would go on to serve in Vietnam. When they returned home there was no V-K day, there were no parades. Korea became known as the forgot- ten war. Many of the veterans of that war are now around 80 years old and Derr said he wanted to make sure they were recog- nized before it was too late. He thanked Judge Jerry McBride for allowing the Batavia trustees discuss Christian Cemetery 10 Pages - Free Serving Clermont County, Ohio Sunday, November 21, 2010 THE SUNDAY SUN www.clermontsun.com See Memorial, Page 2 Where to find us www.clermontsun.com [email protected]Phone: 732-2511 Fax: 732-6344 465 E.

A report on Williamsburg’sfinancial audit was presentedto council at its Nov. 10meeting by Mike Murray,chairman of the finance com-mittee.“The financial audit was
performed by the VonLehman CPA advisors. I amvery pleased with the audit,”Murray said.Von Lehman has handled
the village’s audits for thepast two years. This year willbe their last due to the policymandated by the state exam-iners, Murray said.“The state examiners don’t
want you to get to friendlywith your CPA firm, and Ican understand that. We canhire them again in three moreyears, which I would recom-mend to council,” he said.Murray read to council at
the meeting from the letter to
the village from VonLehman. “In our opinion the finan-
cial statements referred toabove presents fairly in allmaterial respects, the com-bined fund cash balance andreserves for encumbrances ofVillage of Williamsburg,Clermont County, Ohio as ofDecember 31st 2008 and2007 and is combined cashreceipts and disbursements ofthese years then ended on theaccounting basis note onedescribes.”For those curious as to
what note one means, Murrayexplained it is the firm’sdescription of the basis ofaccounting, and that they fol-low what the auditor of Statepermits similar to cashreceipts and recognizesreceipts when received incash rather than whenearned. “Simply put, the village
operates on a cash basis not
an earned basis. This isbecause we do not have therevenue that larger cities do.Therefore we are permittedto operate this way. Mostsmall cities and villagesoperate this way,” he said.“On the fixed assets, we
have fixed asset records.However ours are in multiplelocations. They are in theappropriation ledger wherewe can find the date of pur-chase and what we paid forthem,” he said.The only request indicated
within the audit, is that thevillage set up a system whereall assets are recorded in thesame location. “I have been given a tem-
plate by them (Von Lehman)that I will be working on thatso it will show the fixedassets in one place as far asrecord keeping is concerned.When we buy something it isexpensed and not depreciat-ed. We just need to know
where it is, when we boughtit, how much it cost. Just tomake sure so its physicalwhereabouts can be verified.The state just wants theassets in the prescribed for-mat so that is what we willdo,” he said.
Council members and themayor were pleased with theaudit.“Overall,” Mayor Lefker
said, “I am very pleased. Itwas a very good audit.”Also at the council meeting

spreading quickly.“The home is about 150
years old and it’s of what wecall balloon construction,”Deimling said. “There’s nofire stops between floors sothe empty spaces betweenthe walls just act like chim-neys.”He said the fire will shoot
up the inside of the walls andinto the attic where it willquickly spread. He said thecause will not be determinedfor several days but the firehas been ruled accidental andit started in a utility room ina first floor addition. Thedamage is estimated at$75,000 for the home andcontents and Deimling saidthe building is a total loss.The family was in the care
of the American Red CrossSunday night. Stewart’sfather Fred Stewart is accept-ing donations on behalf ofthe family at his store,Stewart’s Shoe Repair, at 7BWest Main Street, Amelia.Bozett said Grace and MercyOutreach Inc. is also accept-ing donations at their loca-tion at 17 West Main Street,Amelia. Bozett said the fam-ily only made it out of thehouse with the clothes theywere wearing and they needwinter clothing as well asnewborn diapers.“We were just so amazed
by the outpouring of peoplein the Village of Amelia yes-terday just stopping by andbringing stuff,” Bozett said.UTFD assistant chief Jeff
Jackson told the AmeliaVillage Council Mondaynight that the firefightersimmediately went into thebuilding and aggressivelyattacked the fire until the firein the attic made the roofunstable.
“We had to evacuate all ofour personnel...and used adefensive attack from theoutside,” Jackson said.UTFD was assisted by
Central Joint Fire and EMSDepartment, MonroeTownship Fire Department,and Pierce Township FireDepartment.The fire was knocked
down in about an hour and ahalf and crews stayed on the
scene until about 1:30 p.m.Sunday. Amelia Police ChiefJeff Sucher said he assistedOfficer Shane Olson duringthe fire as they worked todirect traffic. Main Streetwas closed for a total of fourhours Sunday.Deimling said when they

tenure. The township currentaccesses the cemeterythrough the church’s parkinglot.He said there are no
records on any of the gravesin the cemetery and the pas-tor of the Mt. Holly ChristianChurch said the church hasvery poor records as well.There is some confusion in
regards to the deed to thecemetery as well. Parsonssaid the property was trans-ferred to the township but thedeed was never recorded.While the deed of record stilllists Mt. Holly ChristianChapel as the owner, it also
has the township listed.“In the past, in the politics
of the 70’s they did a lot ofthings because maybebelonged to a church up thereor something,” trustee ArchieWilson said.Wilson suggested asking
the church to take control ofthe cemetery.“I so think what he
(Archie) says is a good point,you could ask them ‘hey,would you like to have itall,” trustee Lee Cornett said.Zoning administrator
Denise Kelley said thechurch would need to applyfor a zoning variance if thetownship maintained controlof the cemetery because the
addition to their buildingwould not meet the setbackrequirements for propertylines.“The advantage here, if we
did give it to them...therewill be no property line andwe won’t have to worryabout that,” Kelley said.She said they may still
need a variance on the eastside depending on theirplans.Trustee Jim Sauls said the
trustees are not opposed tothe church adding on to itsbuilding, but if the churchtook possession of the ceme-tery it would benefit them aswell as the township.

It is important to followOhio’s open burning regula-tions. Ohio EPA regulationsprohibit burning leaves andother yard waste within amunicipal corporation or arestricted area near a munici-pality. Rules also prohibitopen burning within 1,000feet of an inhabited building
on a neighboring property.Brush, tree trimmings and
leaves may be burned only onthe property where they aregenerated if boundaryrequirements are met.
Garbage, dead animals ormaterial containing rubber,grease or petroleum (such astires) cannot be burned in
Ohio.ODNR regulations prohibit
burning outdoor debris from 6a.m. - 6 p.m. during Octoberand November.
In addition to the risk ofwildfires, smoke from openburning can carry toxic fumesand ash that can be inhaleddeeply into the lungs, causing
breathing difficulties, espe-cially for people with lung orheart problems.
Also, gases released byopen burning can corrodemetal siding and damagepaint on buildings.
Violators of Ohio’s burningregulations are subject to cita-tions and fines.
Open burning is strictly regulated in Ohio

Thanksgiving is a good timeto be thankful for those chari-table, educational and reli-gious groups that provide yourcommunity with valuableservices. And now may be agood time to consider support-ing these groups because, ifyou contribute before the yearis over, you may “do well bydoing good” through valuabletax deductions.To illustrate the benefit of
these deductions, let’s assumeyou’re in the 25% tax bracket.If you give $100 to a qualifiedcharity, you can deduct $100(with a tax benefit of $25)when you file your taxes.Consequently, the real cost of
your donation is just $75($100 minus the $25 tax sav-ings).As you consider your chari-
table gifts, keep the followingpoints in mind:• You must donate — not
just pledge. You can make apledge to donate, but theamount is not deductible untilyou actually pay it. • You must contribute to a
qualified charitable group. Foryour gift to be deductible, itmust go to a qualified tax-exempt organization — eithera religious group or a groupthat has received 501(c)(3)status from the IRS. If you’reunsure if the group you want
to support is tax-exempt, justask.• You must itemize. To
claim a charitable deduction,you must itemize deductionson your taxes.Thus far, we’ve talked only
about cash gifts. But you mayhave other financial assets,such as stocks, that you cangive to charitable groups, andthese gifts also can earn youtax benefits. For example, sup-pose you give $500 worth ofstock in XYZ Company to acharitable group. If you’re inthe 25% tax bracket, you candeduct $125 when you fileyour taxes for 2010. But bydonating the XYZ stock, you
avoid paying any capital gainstaxes you might have incurredif you had sold the stock your-self.Making charitable gifts now
may help you reduce the sizeof your estate and potentiallylower any future estate taxburden on your heirs. Rightnow, federal estate tax lawsare in flux, but it’s possiblethat, one day, your estatemight be large enough to gen-erate estate taxes. If you want-ed to formalize your charitablegifts and help your estate plan-ning, you might considerestablishing a charitableremainder trust. Under such anarrangement, you’d place
some assets, such as stocks orreal estate, in a trust, whichcould then use these assets topay you a lifetime incomestream. When you establishthe trust, you may be able toreceive a tax deduction basedon the charitable group’s“remainder interest” — theamount the charity is likely toultimately receive. (This fig-ure is determined by an IRSformula.) Upon your death,the trust would relinquish theremaining assets to the chari-table organization you’venamed. Keep in mind, though,that this type of trust can becomplex. To establish one,you’ll need to work with your
tax and legal advisors.In any case, be generous
during this season of giving.You’ll be helping a charitablegroup accomplish its worthygoals — and you may be help-ing yourself when tax timearrives.Edward Jones, its employ-
ees and financial advisors arenot estate planners and cannotprovide tax or legal advice.Please consult your attorney orqualified tax advisor regardingyour situation.

Now that we’ve had frostit’s time to put our garden andlandscape to bed for the win-ter. Once frost kills theirfoliage, your plants are fin-ished storing food and won’tneed their leaves any moreuntil spring. While you stillhave nice weather to workoutside, here are some thingsyou’ll want to do: Evergreen shrubs like holly,
boxwood and yew can betrimmed now. This is also agood time to prune trees.Watch this column in the nextfew weeks for tips on this. Ifyou like a neat garden, clipback the brown foliage onyour perennials and rake theleaves out from around yourshrubs. If you find someweeds still growing; pull themout. Clip the spent blooms offyour hardy mums, leaving thegreen foliage to help them getestablished and protect theroots from winter wind. Thisis a good time to scatter fertil-izer on the bare soil aroundplants. We recommend slow-release, multi-mineral fertiliz-ers like Espoma Plant Tone®and Holly Tone®, which willnot burn plants.You may want to wait until
spring to clip back yourperennials because they areimportant resources forwildlife. Many butterflies andmoths lay eggs in the shelterof dead foliage, and groundbirds like finches, juncos,chickadees, cardinals,nuthatches, sparrows and red-breasted woodpeckers dependon seed heads for winter for-age. Dead blooms of cone-flower, black-eyed Susan andmany other popular perennialsattract winter birds.Another reason not to cut
down dormant perennials isthat their foliage providesinsulation from the cold, pro-tecting them from winter kill.Tender perennials such asMums, Asters, Ferns,Lavender, Russian Sage, and
oriental Poppies will surviveextreme cold much better ifleft uncut. Perennials thatremain green through the win-ter like creeping Phlox,Liriope, Christmas Fern andHellebore are better left aloneuntil spring.Aside from neatness there
are reasons you may want toclean up parts of your gardennow instead of waiting untilspring. Dead foliage can har-bor diseases or insects, likemildew on Bee Balm, botrytison Peonies, or borers onbearded Iris. We recommendraking large leaves likemaples or sycamore becausethey can mat down and holdwater, causing crown rot onperennials. Cleaning out deadleaves and foliage also dis-courages rodents from nestingand devouring your plantsduring the winter months.Many ornamental grasses
look good all winter and canbe left alone until spring. Theywill give you winter interestand privacy screening if leftuncut. If they are brittle andmake a mess during the win-ter, you can cut them down toabout six inches tall. Be sureto fertilize the center of theclump, since grasses can dieout in the center if they run outof food. Plant Tone® or com-posted manure work best forgrasses.Most roses are best left
alone right now, since freshlycut tips will die back duringwinter and will need trimmingagain in spring. We recom-mend pruning after newgrowth buds start to open,except for climbing roseswhich should only be prunedafter they bloom. We recom-mend cleaning leaf litter fromaround roses since it can har-bor disease, but some clean
straw or fresh mulch will helpinsulate from winter’s cold.

Enjoy fried treats occasionally
My wife has type 2 diabetes and has to control her intake of carbs. But she loves fried green tomatoes and could eat them six times a week. Is there a substitute for regular flour she can use?
Actually, the amount of carbo-hydrate in fried green tomatoes may surprise you. Each serving has about 13 grams, which counts as one carbohydrate exchange in most plans; your wife just needs to take that into account as she enjoys one of her favorite foods.
However, dietitians would probably encourage her to limit her intake — not because of the carbohydrates involved, but because of the fat and calories in fried green tomatoes. Frying any type of food adds a significant amount of calories from fat. Because people with type 2 diabetes are at much greater risk for obesity and heart disease, eating fried foods six times a week probably isn’t a good plan.
On the (hopefully) rare occasion when she does indulge, your wife might consider making the treat with whole-wheat flour or whole-grain cornmeal. Opting to use the whole grain contributes fiber to the diet and helps the body absorb carbohydrates more slowly, at a rate that helps control blood sugar.
Overall, though, the message for
any person with diabetes is to adopt a balanced, healthful diet designed to help control blood sugar and maintain a healthy weight. Any nutri-tious diet includes good portions of vegetables, fruit, whole grains, lean protein and low-fat dairy with a splash of healthful oil. Indulge in high-fat, high-calorie, low-nutrient treats only occasionally.
In addition, the American Dietetic Association recommends that people with diabetes eat meals and snacks at regular, planned times, and to consume about the same amount of food at each meal or snack. Following such a plan will help keep blood sugar levels as stable as possible.
For help in creating a meal plan that works for you, visit the Ameri-can Diabetes Association website at http://www.diabetes.org; choose the “Food and Fitness” tab. It has infor-mation on planning meals, counting carbohydrates, consuming normal portion sizes, learning about the gly-cemic index and how it can be used to control blood sugar, and more.
There’s plenty of good informa-tion available to help you and your wife learn more. But it’s always also helpful to work with a registered dietitian for those out-of-box type of questions ... like fitting fried green tomatoes into a healthy diet.
