Hamilton County Sheriff’s Depu-ty Scott Prickett was in theparking lot of the KenwoodTowne Center in Sycamore
Township when the call came in.An 18-year-old male was found unre-
sponsive in the Kenwood McDonalds -possible overdose. Prickett knew he wasgoing to be the first to arrive on thescene. The restaurant was within viewand he was available to respond. He im-mediately knew that the day might behis first to use Narcan.
The 14-year law enforcement veteranremembers clearly all life-and-death sit-uations.
“You get to reflect on it all the time,”he said. “That’s why it’s so vivid in mymemory. You know how many calls I getin a day? I can remember this like it wasyesterday. I can remember everythingwhen it comes to bringing back a life.”
Last summer the Hamilton CountySheriff’s Office made the decision tohave patrol officers carry and adminis-ter Narcan to heroin overdose victims.Narcan, the generic of Naloxone, is adrug that reverses the effects of othernarcotic drugs including heroin. Duringa day of inservice, the deputies weretrained in its use.
When Prickett arrived on the scene,he found that the unresponsive male hadalready been pulled out of the restaurantand was out to the sidewalk.
“I noticed he wasn’t breathing. Icouldn’t find a pulse,” Prickett said. “Hislips were blue so I began CPR.”
His partner, Deputy Jason Schmieg,arrived on the scene. Prickett said he re-members calling to him to bring the Nar-can. The kits are kept in their patrolcars.
With adrenalin pumping, Prickettsaid he recalls trembling some as heworked to get the Narcan ready to ad-minister. Fine motor skills were re-quired.
Many thoughts were runningthrough his mind.
“You’ve got this guy dying in front ofyou and you know that you can probablysave his life,” Prickett said.
Any misgivings he had regarding alaw enforcement officer administeringa lifesaving dose of Narcan to a heroinoverdose victim vanished. Confrontedwith a life-and-death situation, Prickettchose to provide life.
Hamilton County Sheriff’s Deputy
Adam Westrich found himself in a simi-lar situation. The day was early in No-vember and Westrich, a 14-year law en-forcement veteran, was dispatched to
Yellow Glenn and Rio Vista in AndersonTownship for a male, early 20s, who hadoverdosed on heroin.
When Westrich arrived, the man waslaying partially inside a car and partiallyon the ground outside of the vehicle.
“His friend was there trying to givehim CPR,” he said. “His friend kind ofunderstood his past. He knew of his druguse.”
As soon as he arrived at the scene,Westrich immediately knew that thiswas the day he would use Narcan in aneffort to save a life. Like any other tool athis disposal, the deputy grabbed his Nar-can kit.
“You kind of revert back to training.‘This part goes here, and that part goes

WESTWOOD – Students in Motherof Mercy High School’s theater pro-gram are putting their own spin on aclassic tale.
Mercy Theatre presents “A Mid-summer Night’s Dream” as its springproduction. Shows are 7:30 p.m. Fri-day, March 4, and Saturday, March 5,and 2 p.m. Sunday, March 6, in theschool’s theater, 3036 Werk Road.
“It is such a classic show. It containscomedy, romance, quarrels and a littlebit of physical action,” Claire LaNicca,director of Mercy Theatre, said.
“I partially chose it because it is sodelightful to work on, to be a part ofand, most of all, to watch. It also is agreat ensemble piece.”
She said there is no one “star” of theshow; the entire cast has to work to-gether to make it successful, which isimportant for high school theater stu-dents to learn.
The show deals with the universaltheme of love and its complications.Set in an enchanted forest in mythicalAthens, there is a handsome fairy king,a misguided parent, star-crossed lov-ers, a weaver who’s transformed into ahalf-donkey, wood sprites and elves,she said.
“Our version is something I havenever done before. We have pareddown the script to just the ‘meaty’parts, if you will, and fine-tuned a lot ofthe moments,” she said.
“It’s short, sweet and very funny.We decided to base it all off of differ-ent Disney and fairytale stories weknow, so I hope audiences will enjoyrecognizing some already familiarcharacters, as well as a lot of physicalcomedy.”
Amy Cline, a junior who plays therole of Puck, said each character was

As police ramp up their ef-forts to battle drug-relatedcrimes, residents can help bypaying attention to their sur-roundings. Officers from sev-eral departments have offeredsuggestions of what to look for,and what to do when communi-ty members see suspicious ac-tivity.
What to look forActivity that’s out of the or-
dinary should not be dismissed,police say.
“If cars are stopping by ahouse and there’s a quick ex-change, that’s a red flag,” Shar-onville Lt. Steve Vanover said.
Sgt. Michael Davenport ofthe Montgomery Police Depart-ment said occupied cars linger-ing in parking lots could be asign of illegal activity becauseheroin addicts typically use thedrug soon after purchasing it.
“Be mindful of peopleparked in parking lots or onstreets by themselves or withanother person,” Davenportsaid. “Heroin addicts do nothold on to the drug for long.They are typically sick and will
pull over to use the drug shortlyafter purchasing it.”
Delhi Township Police Lt.Jeff Braun said that if residentssuspect or notice any unusualbehavior, especially a drasticchange in someone’s routine orcircle of friends, they shouldcall the police and describewhat they’ve observed and al-low police to look into it.
Vanover suggested that resi-dents write down the type andcolor of car, along with the li-cense plate. Note the time thatthe cars come and go, to estab-lish a pattern. That way, offi-cers know when to patrol thearea.
“You live in that neighbor-hood, and you know who be-longs and who doesn’t,” Vanov-er said. “You know what behav-iors are normal better than I’mever going to know them.
“If it makes you turn yourhead and say that’s suspicious,that’s when you call.”
“We would much rather in-vestigate something that turnsout to be nothing rather thanhaving something truly goingon and us not getting the call,”Davenport said.
Police Chief Sean Rahe ofthe Loveland Police Depart-ment agreed that residents
should watch for anythingthat’s out of the ordinary.
“Residents are great re-sources of information,” Rahesaid. “They know who is nor-mally in their neighborhood orarea, what times delivery driv-ers make their drop offs, andwhich cars are usually parkedon their streets.
“This is extremely valuableand can help us identify peoplewho are up to criminal activity.Not everyone who is new to anarea, or is unfamiliar, is going tocommit a crime, but it is onefactor people should look for.”
Madeira Police Chief FrankMaupin said information fromresidents is helpful.
“I always tell residents theyare our extra eyes,” he said,“because officers cannot be ev-erywhere at one time.”
What to expectOnce police officers receive
the information, they can takeaction.
Blue Ash Sgt. Allison Schliesaid police could respond in avariety of ways.
“We may send a plainclothescar to the location to gather in-telligence and then stop a caraway from the scene. Often atwo-car response will be seen
by residents and we will con-duct an investigation to deter-mine what is occurring.
“Residents can call us tocome investigate when theyfeel activity is suspicious or outof the norm,” Schlie said. “Obvi-ously a criminal offense mustoccur before we can intervenefor an arrest but we talk withanyone (with their cooperation)in order to determine if some-thing criminal is occurring.”
Sometimes, tips from resi-dents can bring immediate re-sults.
“Citizen tips have led to her-oin arrests in our community,”Davenport said. “Recently, offi-cers received a call for recklessdriving. A Montgomery officerinvestigated and tried to stopthe vehicle. The vehicle struckanother car traveling head-onbefore hitting a school bus withchildren inside.”
Even if the information andobservations don’t yield imme-diate results, it’s valuable andencouraged.
“We don’t forget this infor-mation,” Vanover said. “It doesget documented. If we can es-tablish that pattern of time ofday we can start to address theproblem and build a bigger pic-ture.”

There are recognizablesigns and symptoms that indi-cate someone may have aproblem with drugs.

Look for theseindicators of adrug problem
there.’ As I go to administer,EMS shows up.”
With EMS at his side, West-rich administered the Narcan.Unfortunately, the Narcan wasnot immediately effective.There are different ways heroinis introduced to the body. If a us-er chooses to snort the sub-stance, that renders the Narcanless effective, Westrich said. Asecond kit was used to revivethe victim.
There’s a high probabilitythat police officers will be thefirst on the scene in overdosecases, Hamilton County Sher-iff’s Lt. Chris Ketteman said. Itmakes sense for the officers tocarry Narcan. Ketteman is thecommander of Hamilton Coun-ty Sheriff’s Department Dis-trict 3.
“There’s nothing worse thanwaiting for the life squad whenyou have this guy dying,” hesaid. “This has given us the op-portunity to actually help some-one and not just sit on the side-line.”
The officers are aware thatwhether heroin addicts shouldbe given Narcan is a subject ofdebate.
“It’s easy to say, ‘it’s just adrug addict’ unless it’s yourfamily member. It’s someone’sson, brother, sister. It could besomeone’s parent,” Kettemansaid. “I believe people are onlygiven so many wakeup calls toget on the right track. Some-times God works through us tohelp catch bad guys. This is justanother tool we were given tohelp that person understandthat you only get so many wakeup calls.”
“Going home at the end of theday, knowing that you did every-thing you can to help someone,that’s a good way to go home,” hesaid.
While the officers embraceNarcan and the opportunity tosave a life. They are equallycommitted to getting heroin/opi-ates and other drugs off of thestreets. Members of the Hamil-ton County Task Force, in addi-tion to the local officers, talk tooverdose victims. Their focus islearning all they can aboutwhere drug users are gettingtheir fix.
As the police departmentsprotecting the county, town-ships, cities and villages collab-orate in efforts to thwart thedrug epidemic, scenarios likethose above continue playingout throughout the area.
Mount Healthy police offi-cers revived a a man suffering
from an apparent overdose in aWhite Castle parking lot in theearly morning hours of Jan. 29.
Mount Healthy Police ChiefVincent Demasi said his offi-cers found the man on his notbreathing and unresponsivejust before 2 a.m. He said his of-ficers administered Naloxone,revived the man and took him toUniversity of Cincinnati Medi-cal Center for treatment.
Officers with both the GreenTownship and Delhi Townshippolice departments are now car-rying intranasal Narcan in theircruisers and have been trainedhow to administer the opiateantidote when necessary.
Green Township Police Lt.Jim Vetter said officers all re-ceived Narcan training in De-cember and began carrying itshortly after. So far, he said offi-cers have administered it a fewtimes to bring overdose victimsback to consciousness.
“There are times our officersget to the scene first, so we try togive the Narcan before the firedepartment arrives and takesover care,” he said, noting thetownship receives the Narcankits free of charge from thecounty.
Besides helping to save lives,Vetter said another advantageof having police officers carryand administer Narcan is that itcan help identify other medicalissues.
The antidote is only effectiveon people in an overdose state,
and he said it is a benign medica-tion that has no negative effectson people who haven’t over-dosed.
If an officer gives Narcan,and it doesn’t work, he said theycan almost immediately rule outan overdose as the cause of theproblem and begin CPR or usean automated external defibril-lator on the patient until the firedepartment gets to the scene.Once firefighters and paramed-ics arrive, they know it’s not anoverdose and can begin diagnos-ing what the medical issue maybe.
Colerain Township put Nar-can in its police cruisers in Sep-tember. Dan Meloy, ColerainTownship public safety director,says the police and fire depart-ment collaborated to make thedrug more available to first re-sponders. All police officershave been trained how to admin-ister the nasal spray so they canadminister immediate assis-tance.
Colerain Fire Capt. WillMueller assembled kits for po-lice officers and helped withtraining. In addition to the nasalNarcan, the kit includes glovesand a CPR mask to keep officerswho offer assistance safe frompossible infection. Meloy saidthe Narcan in the police cruisersis stocked from the fire depart-ment’s inventory and the initia-tive will be at no additional costto the township.
Meloy says this initiative is
the latest step in the township’sefforts to address the publichealth problem of opiate over-dose and abuse. The township’sQuick Response Team, which in-cludes a police officer, a mem-ber of the fire department and alicensed abuse counselor, fol-lows up on any overdose inci-dent handled by the township’semergency medical personnelto offer assistance and guidance

NALOXONE MOREREADILY AVAILABLE TO PUBLIC
While administering CPR andcalling 911 are important whendealing with an opioid overdose,administering Naloxone may be thekey to saving a person’s life.
Naloxone, also known as Narcan,offers immediate help by restoringbreathing for anyone overdosingfrom the use of an opiate painmedicine such as OxyContin orheroin. Anyone can administerNaloxone. The drug cannot be usedto get high, and is not harmful.
It had been hard to get in Hamil-ton County, but in the past 12months, a now number of pharma-cies are making it available. Ohioapproved a state law in July thatgave pharmacists the option todispense the drug without a doc-tor’s prescription in July.
The Kroger Co. is the latest retail-er making the opioid overdosereversal medicine Naloxone avail-able, announcing in February that itwould dispense Naloxone without aprescription at its 84 pharmacies inOhio and 16 pharmacies in NorthernKentucky.
Naloxone can be billed to insur-ance if you have a prescription.Otherwise, it costs $41.59 per doseat Kroger, and you need a nasalatomizer, which costs $6.97 to ad-minister the medication.
“Unfortunately, Ohio and Ken-tucky rank in the top five when itcomes to the highest overdosedeath rate according to the Centersfor Disease Control. Kroger wants tohelp reverse this horrible statistic,”says Jeff Talbot, vice president ofmerchandising for Kroger, Cincin-nati/Dayton division. “We wantfamilies dealing with addiction toknow that they can count on havingthis drug available in the event thatthey need it.”
Kroger joins other pharmaciesthat have committed to providingthe medicine for overdose reversal.CVS announced Feb. 1 it wouldmake Naloxone available without aprescription at all of its pharmaciesin Ohio beginning in March. Wal-greens pharmacies in Cincinnatihave been carrying the overdoseantidote since May 2015.

The Colerain Community forHealthy Awareness group has acommunity action plan, formedas part of the Hamilton CountyHealth District’s We Thrive pro-gram, to address the opioid epi-demic. Key steps taken thus farinclude a resource packet that isdistributed to people treated foropioid overdose and familymembers by township EMS per-
sonnel.Dr. Shawn Ryan and Bright-
view Health donated 100 dosesof Naloxone, in an auto injectorformat for use by the ColerainPublic Safety QRT unit duringtheir overdose follow-up ef-forts. The donation is valued at$50,000.
Green Township Police Offi-cer Jake Richmond has twiceused Narcan to bring overdos-ing subjects back to conscious-ness.
He said his first experiencewas a male victim who hadsnorted heroin.
“His friend was there and
called the police. We showed upand I recognized that it was aheroin overdose,” he said. “I ad-ministered the Narcan and with-in about 30 seconds he startedbreathing and regained con-sciousness.”
The second time he gave Nar-can was to a female victim whoinjected heroin with a syringe,he said.
“I again noticed it was a her-oin overdose and administeredNarcan,” Richmond said. “Shestarted breathing, the fire de-partment showed up and gaveher a second application and sheregained consciousness after
that.”He said a person who has
overdosed typically has shallowbreaths, is foaming at the mouthand has a bluish skin tone.
“You just administer Narcanand kind of wait for the medi-cine to take effect,” he said. “It’salmost like their chest rises up,they start breathing and thentheir eyes are real big. They’rekind of out of it for a little bit,and then they realize what’s go-ing on shortly after that.”
Richmond said, to him, themedication is just another toolin officers’ tool belts.
“Part of our job description is
to preserve life,” he said. “Withthis, this gives us the ability tomaybe help somebody beforethe fire department can getthere. I think it’s a great tool, it’sgood to have.”
Delhi Township Police Lt.Jeff Braun said the depart-ment’s officers carry Narcanand have been trained to use it.
“Since we started carrying,we have had two officers admin-ister the drug, which assistedwith saving the lives of the sub-jects,” he said.
Reporters Kurt Backscheid-er, Jennie Key and Sheila Vil-vens contributed to this story.

MARCH 2, 2016 • WESTERN HILLS PRESS • 7ANEWS
We had a “teaser” day thisweek. The sun shone brightly,and the temperature went up tonear 70 degrees. So I decided itwas a good day to mulch the
asparagus patchwith the well-rotted chickenmanure that my“girls”/chickensand rooster,gifted me with. Itook a walk downto the river, andsaw yellow aco-nite blooming inprofusion. Checkout the photos on
my abouteating.com site.In the herb garden, the
chickweed, which is actually asuper nutritious food, has takenover the Bible section near thesouth end. I’ll pull some of thatup to sprinkle on our saladmade with the Green Goddessdressing recipe I’m sharingtoday. I’ll just have to remem-ber not to say anything aboutthe chickweed in the salad. Yep,I have family members whoare still not in the fold when itcomes to eating my wild of-ferings! And salmon patties area given in my house for Lent.They’re so good I wonder why Idon’t serve them more often.
Readers want to knowHow do I get veggies to
roast golden brown on top?No need to turn them over.
Food that you want to be gold-en-brown on top should go onthe highest oven rack.
Pizza, piecrust, and itemsthat you want golden brown onthe bottom should be on lowestrack.
Cookies, breads, cakes andother baked goods do best inthe middle of oven for the mosteven heat. It’s good to rotate ifyou have a couple pans bakingat once on different racks.

My mom’s salmon patties
Feel free to use whatever kind of crumbs you like. The key tohaving them stay together is to finely mince the onion and celery, usea light hand when mixing and a firm one when patting out. Go totaste on onion and celery.
1 can salmon1 egg, lightly beatenFinely minced onion and celery, 1/3 cup eachPalmful minced parsley (opt)1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbsSalt and pepper to taste
Drain salmon, but leave those bits of tender bone in. They con-tain calcium and give the patties a bit of crunch. Just mix everythingtogether with a light hand. Form into firm patties and fry in a little oilover medium heat until brown on both sides.
Dilly sauce
I like this so much I useit on other seafood dishes,as well.
Mix together:
1/2 cup mayonnaiseJuice of half a lemon or
more to taste1 generous teaspoon
dried dill leaves orpalmful fresh chopped
Hot sauce to taste1 tomato, finely diced
Homemade GreenGoddess dressing
For the fellow who stopped tochat after a class on herbs. “I lovedGreen Goddess dressing as a kid andinstead of buying it I want to makeit from scratch.” This dressing is agreat way to use three of my favor-ite herbs that are easily grown:parsley, basil and tarragon. Anothervintage recipe with resurgence inpopularity. I love the hauntingflavor that the anchovy gives.
Put everything except sourcream, salt and pepper in blender orfood processor and blend untilsmooth, then whisk in sour creamand salt and pepper.
1 cup mayonnaise1 bunch green onions, white
and green parts, about 1 cupFresh basil leaves, about 1/2 cupCouple sprigs of tarragon,
about 2 teaspoons choppedPalmful chopped parsley2 nice cloves garlic, mincedFresh lemon juice to taste -
start with 3-4 tablespoonsNice squeeze of anchovy paste,
about 2 rounded teaspoons1 cup sour cream or Greek
yogurtSalt and pepper to taste (you
won’t need much salt)
Tip from Rita’s kitchenI’ve made this with Vegenaise
eggless mayo and it tastes just asgood.
Next time I make this I’ll usemy homemade yogurt in place ofsour cream. I’ll let you know howthat goes, since my homemadeyogurt is thinner than store bought.

Sooner or later, everycommunity has to considerwhen, how and whether toupgrade or even replaceschools and equipment thatserve their children. It’snever an easy decision, butit’s necessary to keep upwith the demands of newtechnology, accessibility,safety, growing populations,and changes in education.
Studies show that there’sa direct link between thephysical characteristics of aschool building and stu-dents’ educational results.Thanks to the support oftheir communities, many ofthe school districts in ourregion have been able toprovide school facilitiesthat encourage positiveresults.
At career-technicalschools like Great Oaks, wemust not only create a posi-tive environment, we musthave classrooms and labsthat give students real-world experiences. Thatmeans making sure thatculinary students have acommercial kitchen inwhich to learn; that health,dental and surgical technol-
ogies pro-grams havelabs thatlook, feel andwork likemedical facil-ities; that thesustainableurban agri-culture stu-dents have agreenhouse,and so on.
A proper learning envi-ronment also means theright equipment: Aviationstudents have airplanes towork on, heavy industrialdiesel students have trucks,and computer service anddigital arts students haveup-to-date technology.
Great Oaks students alsohave the benefit of a suppor-tive community. Nearly$500,000 in Trimble Naviga-tion GPS hardware and soft-ware was recently donatedso that our heavy equipmentstudents can becometrained and certified in sat-ellite technology that’s be-ing used in real-world con-struction layout. We’ve alsobeen able to enhance labsand update campuses within
our current tax levy, and aStraight A grant has en-abled us to build a state-of-the-art robotics and ad-vanced manufacturing labthat will be used by futureengineers, area companies,and local workers who needto upgrade their skills.
The surgical equipment,computerized manufactur-ing machines, 3D printers,horses and other animals,power tools, kitchens, con-struction equipment, cosme-tology stations, veterinaryoperating suites, weldinglabs, automotive paintbooths, and other facilitiesand equipment at GreatOaks give high school andadult students the experi-ence they need to be suc-cessful in their profession.
You have provided thosefor students in southwestOhio, and we’re grateful. Iinvite you to visit DiamondOaks, Laurel Oaks, LiveOaks or Scarlet Oaks to seeyour community’s publiccareer-technical school.

Over the past threeyears, Ohio has greatly ex-panded the opportunity forpersons with old convictionsto have those convictionserased.
This trend continues withthe passage of Senate Bill143, championed by StateSen. William Seitz of Cincin-nati, which took effect Sept.19. Just a few years ago, aperson could have only onequalifying conviction ex-punged from their recordand only if it was the onlyqualifying conviction on theperson’s record. This lawwas amended in 2012 to per-mit the expungement of onefelony and one misdemean-or conviction or two misde-meanor convictions, if theconvictions were not for the
same offense. The new
law willchange thedefinition ofwho is an“eligibleoffender” toanyone whohas beenconvicted ofan offense inOhio or anyother juris-
diction and who has notmore than one felony con-viction, not more than twomisdemeanor convictions,or not more than one felonyconviction and one misde-meanor conviction in Ohioor any other jurisdiction.Most crimes of violence orthat involve child victims donot qualify for expunge-ment. The new law doesremove the requirementthat the two misdemeanorconvictions be for differentoffenses.
For example, if a personhas a 1990 conviction forunderage consumption and a1991 conviction for the sameoffense, and otherwise has aclean record, both can nowbe expunged.
Ohio law also permitscertain traffic offenses tobe expunged where the traf-fic offense is so intertwinedwith an expungeable of-fense that the expungeableoffense cannot be sealedwithout also sealing thetraffic record.
This change will benefit alarge class of people whohave convictions that arosefrom routine traffic stops.The new law makes clear,however, that if a trafficinfraction is expunged, any
points that were previouslyassessed on the person’sdriver’s license will not beremoved by the BMV. Thisnew provision is also notavailable if the traffic con-viction was for operating avehicle while under theinfluence of drugs or alco-hol or physical control of avehicle while intoxicated.Other than this narrow ex-ception, traffic convictionsare not expungeable.
The process for obtainingan expungement remainsthe same, but the new lawstates that if a person isseeking to have multipleconvictions sealed in thesame application to thecourt, that the clerk canonly charge one filing fee.Previously, many courts inOhio charged high filingfees for expungement appli-cations involving multipleconvictions, but the fees arenow capped at $50.00 perapplication regardless of ifthe applicant is seeking tohave one or two convictionserased.
The bottom line is that ifyou were previously in-formed that you were noteligible to have your convic-tion(s) expunged becauseyou have two misdemeanorconvictions for the sameoffense or because the rec-ords of your convictionwere too closely associatedwith a non-expungeabletraffic conviction, it mightbe a good idea to have alegal professional evaluateyour case in light of the newchanges to the law.

Feb. 24 questionShould the U.S. Senate hold
confirmation hearings if Presi-dent Obama nominates a suc-cessor to Supreme Court JusticeAntonin Scalia? Why or whynot?
“If we want the Senate tofollow the Constitution and todo the job our tax dollars payfor then they should holdhearings for President Oba-ma’s Supreme Court justicenominee.
“They’ll have plenty ofother issues they can bogdown and obstruct when thenext Democratic presidentgets in, in November.”
C.S.
“Hopefully the nomineewill be someone who has actu-ally read and understands theconstitution like Justice Sca-lia. The Senate would be legal-ly bound to consider anypresidential nominee for theSupreme Court. Howeverbased on Obama’s decisionsover the past seven-plus yearsI can only hope he does notnominate anyone for The Su-preme Court. A year fromnow Obama will be both goneand forgotten. Go Figure!”
T.D.T.
“All elected senators andthe president swear underoath to uphold the Constitu-tion of the United States.
“Sen. McConnell is clearlynot following the oath whenannouncing the partisan ob-structionism. He must have acrystal ball that suggests aRepublican will take theWhite House. Already hisstrategy of obstructionism ishaving a backlash in key Sen-ate elections across the Unit-
ed States.“The Republicans are not
ignorant of Article II, Section2 of the Constitution andtherefore must realize conse-quences When elected offi-cials decide not to follow theConstitution then expulsion isproper: Article I, Section 5,Clause 2.
“The American peopledeserve better from electedofficials.”
eadamsoc
“No way should the Senateapprove any nomination thatMr. Obama put's forth. If noth-ing more than do to past ob-jections from Joe Biden 1992and Chuck Schumer 2007where both parties said noSupreme Court Justice shouldbe approved during an elec-tion year. Not to mention, Mr.Obama will search the ranksfor the most liberal and pro-gressive person he can find.Another extreme justice is notwhat this country needs in it'spresent state of collapse.’
T.S.
Feb. 17 questionWhich Cincinnati team is
most likely to win a champi-onship next - Bengals, Cyclones,Reds, UC football, UC basketballor Xavier basketball? Why?
“Of all the teams listed-,with the parity in NCAAhoops this year, Xavier hasthe best chance to bring a titleto Cincy.
“Of course, they could justas easily lose on the first orsecond weekend.
“Defense wins champi-onships in football, you needoffense in basketball. So,while UC’s style may get themin the tournament, it won’t getthem far.
“Neither UC or Bengalfootball will win in postseasonwithout coaching changes.
“The Reds are startingover. Hopefully, the prospectswe received for Cueto, Leakeand Frazier will pan out, but itwill be three to five yearsbefore they contend.
“As far as the Cyclones,would half the people in thecity know or care if they didwin a title?
“So, go Muskies, MarchMadness is always exciting,particularly when a local teamadvances far. Play your bestand you can cut the nets downin Houston.”

Izzie Murray and Abby Ra-pien have been swimming to-gether since they were 8years old. They have madeplenty of memories in and outof the pool along the way.
They reached new heightsat the state meet in CantonFeb. 25-26, and will have onemore opportunity next seasonto reach their goal of winninga gold medal.
Murray reached her goalof swimming a sub-55-second100-yard butterfly at the statechampionship meet in Can-ton. But, her best time (54.95)came in Thursday’s prelimin-aries. In Friday’s final, shefinished in 55.08. A tremen-dous time, but not quiteenough to capture a gold med-al. The Taylor High School ju-nior finished in second place,just 0.13 seconds behind statechampion Lauren Olson(Bishop Fenwick).
Her attention almost im-mediately turned to making afinal run for the state champi-onship next season.
“It feels kind of sad be-cause that means I only haveone more year to make memo-ries through high schoolswim. But it’s also nice toknow that I have another shotat the state title,” said Mur-ray. “I am really happy that Ireached my goals but I’m al-ready wanting to start mak-ing new goals and training fornext year. I’m more ready to
start training for next seasonand really excited for sum-mer to start.”
Murray also placed sixth inthe 100 backstroke. Rapienachieved her goal of a top fivestate finish, placing fifth inthe 500 freestyle. She alsoplaced eighth in the 200 free-style.
“Knowing that I have onemore shot at a state makes mewant to work even more to getwhere I know I can be,” saidRapien. “I am very excited totrain harder so I can bestronger and bring my ‘A’game to state next year.”
The Yellow Jackets en-joyed some additional compa-ny this year after being Tay-lor’s only two qualifiers lastseason. Senior Sutty Godarand junior Lydia Wasser-

bauer also competed at state,teaming up with Murray andRapien in the 200 and 400 yardfreestyle relays. Wasserbauerreturned to state after qualify-ing as a freshman. The relayteams did not qualify for Fri-day’s finals by finishing in thetop 16 in Thursday’s preliminar-ies.
This was the third straighttrip to state for Murray and Ra-pien. They have learned what toexpect and how to prepare.
“I know the most importantthing is to make sure I have funno matter what,” said Murray.“State is exciting, but it’s not al-ways good to get so wrapped upin it.”
Competing at a national levelthroughout the year has also putstate in perspective. The statemeet should not be pressure-packed; winning would just bethe icing on an already success-ful season.
“From past state experienc-es, I have learned not to let mynerves get to me,” said Rapien.“State is all about having funand swimming fast with all yourfriends.”
Rapien placed third andfifth, respectively, in the 200-and 500-yard freestyle at thedistrict meet. Murray placedfourth in the backstroke at dis-tricts and set an event recordwith a first-place time of 55.10 in
the butterfly. Even with therecord pace, she did not feelthat she swam her best, andpowered through adversityshe faced in the pool that day.
“With the amount of work Iput into the past few seasons,I don’t think I would have letanything really bother me,”said Murray. “I know that notevery race is going to go myway but I still need to pushthrough it.”
Juniors Murray and Ra-pien make each other betterwhile making sure they havefun. It helps when you canswim in the lane next to yourbest friend every day, then goout for pizza together after.
“At practice, if we don’tthink we can make a hard cy-cle, we are always there to en-courage one another,” saidMurray. “It’s also nice to havesomeone that is just as goofyas me and willing to have funwith the whole sport.”
They head into the sum-mer season knowing that theyhave just one year of highschool swimming left, deter-mined to bring out the best ineach other and enjoy everymoment along the way.
“I absolutely love havingIzzie as a teammate/bestfriend. Pushing one another todo well is probably the easiestpart,” said Rapien. “She’s myNo. 1 supporter through allthe hard practices and I knowI can always count on her topush me and make me a betterswimmer.”

THANKS TO KRISTIN PERICA
The Oak Hills High School gymnastics team after capturing the school’sfirst city championship Feb. 20.
GREEN TWP. - The elementof surprise is long gone for OakHills High School’s ElizabethCron and Jared Cox.
Cron, a sophomore diver,and Cox, a junior swimmer,both represented the High-landers in Canton Feb. 26-27 atthe Division I state swimmingand diving meets.
For Cron, she’s already es-tablished herself as one of thetop divers in the state. Last sea-son she placed fifth on the statepodium. This year, she placedsixth, after winning a districtchampionship, sectional cham-pionship and she became thefirst diver in decades to winconsecutive Greater MiamiConference championships.
Cron’s barely completedhalf of her high school careerand she’s already running outof room on her resume.
“It has been a really goodyear,” Cron said. “It might nothave gone the way I wanted itto (at state) but as a diver and acompetitor I improved a lot.”
Oak Hills diving coachBrandon Unthank has knownfor a long time how talentedElizabeth is on the board, butthis season, he said her biggeststrides came off the board.
“It’s mainly off the board tobe honest with you,” said Un-thank. “After she gets off theboard, last year, you could seeshe was nervous before or af-ter. That wasn’t the case thisyear.
“She recoups a lot quickerfrom the dives where shedoesn’t (do as well). The wayshe approaches each dive andthe way she is between eachdive is where I see the differ-ence.”
Diving is as much mental asit is physical, and althoughCron would have liked to finishhigher at state, her sophomoreseason has afforded her confi-dence for next season.
“I think that I worked reallyhard this year and it makes meconfident that I can work evenharder next year and finisheven better,” she said. “I thinkthat each year you have new
experiences, face new thingsand the adversity that I facedthis year will definitely helpme for next year.”
Even though swimming anddiving are very differentworlds, Cron said she madesure she was there for homeswim meets at Oak Hills. Sheused to be a swimmer, and ad-mitted that she likes watchingswim meets more than sheliked competing in them.
She was thrilled she hadsome Highlander company atstate this year.
“I was ecstatic that he wascoming up with me,” Cron said.“I think he deserves every bitof it. He was telling us at din-ner (Feb. 25) that he swims ev-ery day in the morning beforeschool and after school. He’s agreat guy, I’m really glad hewas rewarded with this experi-ence.”
In his first appearance atstate, Cox, who qualified in twoevents (100 butterfly, 200 free-style), advanced out of the pre-lims to the final in the 100 flyand finished 14th in a time of51.49. He took 17th in the 200free.
The season’s barely over,but you can be sure that Cronand Cox have already startedthinking about next year, andhow lovely Canton is in lateFebruary.

Elizabeth Cron traverses the boardin her district championshipperformance at Miami Universityearlier this season.
For the first time since 2012, McAuley HighSchool’s bowling team qualified together for thestate tournament from the Division I districttournament Feb. 24 at Beaver-Vu Lanes.
The top six teams earned a berth at state andthe Mohawks finished fifth. With Glen Este, theywere the only local teams to earn a spot rolling atstate.
“I told my assistant coach, Todd Baker, that Ihad a really good feeling about this,” McAuleycoach Ken Homer said. “Our team started peak-ing at the right time. Everyone’s averages start-ed picking up, especially my two low bowlerswho both went plus-33 and plus-26 on their (sea-son) averages).
“My other three bowlers did as I expectedthem.”
Coming into districts, freshman AshleyBushman’s average was 156 per game; seniorEmma Papania averaged 160. Papania and Bush-man both averaged 183 a game for a series of 550at districts. .
With Bushman and Papania both surging,McAuley turned to its top three to finish the job,and they did.
“When it comes down to these three, they’reall proven bowlers,” said Homer. “They’re allmotivated and driven … it makes my job easier.”
Senior Madison Baker led McAuley with a622 series, which ranked seventh overall on theday. Senior Natalie DeMeo tossed a 595 seriesand senior Julie Lasonczyk posted 575.
“When your lowest girls’ average is 183you’re gonna have some success,” Homer said.“Madison Baker made the all-district team.She’s the one (who’s) really taken off in the lasttwo or three weeks. Last week she got her aver-age up to 200 (for the season). You really don’tsee that too much; it’s pretty special for a girl todo that.
“I wanna congratulate Glen Este as well formaking it; they really charged hard in that bakerround. And Seton, they had a great season. Iwould have liked to see them come along, buthopefully we can represent the GGCL and Cin-cinnati.”
The state tournament for the girls is March 5. Oak Hills’ Chafins qualifies for stateOnly the top six individual bowlers from non-
advancing teams earned a spot at state. OakHills senior Mandi Chafins bowled a 604 three-game series and was the only Highlander tobook a place in the state tournament. Oak Hillsfinished 13th as a team. Junior Mary Heinbowled a 582 series.
Oak Hills’ boys didn’t have its best showing atthe district tournament. No Highlanders wereable to advance to state.
Seton, Mercy seasons end at districtSeton finished eighth overall and missed
qualifying as a team by 30 pins. Senior Carly Lu-ken bowled a team-high 602 series at districts.She missed moving on as an individual by threepins. Junior Katelyn Rutherford rolled a 581 se-ries.
Mercy came in 16th place, and failed to qual-ify any individuals to state. The Bobcats wereled by senior Meghan Lanter’s 584 series. Sopho-more Dimitri Cottman rolled 529.
GCL South’s charge ends at districtsAll four of the Greater Catholic League
South’s bowling teams qualified to the Division Idistrict tournament, but that would be where theseason ended for all four. No individuals man-aged to make it to state either.
Rivals St. Xavier and Elder each won section-al championships to advance. La Salle came infourth place at the sectional to qualify to dis-tricts.
The Lancers were led by GCL South bowler ofthe year Danny Reichwein and co-coach of theyear Hollis Haggard. Tevin Carter-Tolbert wasalso first-team All-GCL South.

McAuley High School’s bowling team qualifiedtogether to the Division I state tournament on Feb. 24.
CANTON - It’s not much dif-ferent than most years. Fromthe opening race, the 200 yardmedley relay, it was prettymuch a foregone conclusion.
The St. Xavier Bombers wonthe program’s 37th title and itseighth in a row. The team accu-mulated 398 points, the highesttotal in high school swimminghistory in Ohio, according tocoach Tim Beerman.
“It’s been an incredible sea-son,” the coach said. “Theseguys bought in from day one andtheir attitude has been excep-tional. I give credit to the workthey put in with their club teamsbefore the season began. Oncewe came together as a team,they didn’t stop. They kept ask-
ing for more and kept producingeach time. This is the result. Afantastic meet.”
The team of Justin Grender,Charles Leibson, Luke Sobolew-ski and Nicholas Perera of Shar-onville set a new state record inthe 200 medley with a time of1:30.40.
Later in the meet, juniorGrant House picked up titles inthe 200 freestyle and the 500freestyle. Sobolewski cameback and won the 100 fly.
“No one has tried to perfectthat event more than he has,”Beerman said of Sobolewski inthe 100 fly
The Bombers started themeet with a new state recordand ended the meet with a newstate record. This time it was inthe 400 free relay.
Senior Matt Slabe, Leibson,
Grender and House combinedto finish in 3:01.34.
“The relays were super ex-citing,” the coach said. “We settwo new state records andthankfully we were pushed byour competition.”
There was plenty of excite-ment before the final relay, es-pecially in the boys 50 yard free-style and 200 individual medley.
In the 50, Grove City’s KalvinKoethke touched the wall in19.97 seconds, breaking St.Xavi-er's Joe Hudepohl's record of20.01 that had stood since 1991.
“I thought it was time,” Beer-man said. “Hats off to Kalvin forbreaking that record. I’m sureJoey would say the same thing.Hopefully, there are othersub-20s. He’s opened the door.It’s been closed for too long.”

making, money manage-ment, people skills andbusiness ethics – aspectsessential to leadership,success and life.
“The girls in my troophave lofty goals and haveidentified numerous usesfor their cookie money,”Troop leader Tonya Solda-no said. “We always try toidentify a way we can giveback to the communityand something that thegirls will enjoy and learnfrom.”
Over the years these
girls have attended GirlScout adventure camp,taken troop field trips, anddonated cookies to theRonald McDonald Houseand the Anderson FerryFood Pantry. This year thetroop has once againworked together to identi-fy some options for usingthe proceeds they receive.
