REGIONAL CHAMPS1BAnsley Davenport leads NCC toovertime win.

INDEPENDENCE – TheOhio Kentucky Indiana (OKI)Regional Board of Govern-ments has adopted an im-provement plan for Ky. 536.

This segment of the road-way, located between Ky. 17and the Kenton and Campbellcounty line, is the only re-maining section of the entirecorridor that does not have apreferred alternative or im-provement plan in place. In2015, the Ky. 536 ScopingStudy was launched.

The study’s project man-ager, Robyn Bancroft, said inaccordance with the public’sresponses, the project devel-opment team recommendedthe off-alignment option to theboard on Jan. 14.

“I truly believe that the en-tire KY 536 Scoping Studyprocess has resulted in a rec-ommendation that balancesthe concerns of local propertyowners who will be most di-rectly impacted by future im-provements with the transpor-

tation needs of region atlarge,” Bancroft said. “It hasbeen an honor working withcitizens, business owners andofficials throughout NorthernKentucky to conduct and com-plete the study.”

The off-alignment alterna-tive follows the existing Ky.536 east from Ky. 17 and shiftsnorth onto a new segment as itapproaches Ky. 16, redirect-ing traffic north of White’sTower Elementary School torealign with Ky. 536 near Mav-erick Road.

It follows the existing road-way until 1/2 mile west of Staf-fordsburg Road, where itturns north onto a new align-ment that connects directlywith the existing VisaliaBridge. This alternative isplanned as a three-lane road, asingle lane traveling in eitherdirection and a lane in the mid-dle to assist with turns, be-tween Ky. 17 and Staffords-burg Road.

From Staffordsburg Roadto the Campbell County line,the alternative would becomea two-lane road with the ex-

ception of a climbing lane thatwould be constructed to assisttrucks traveling westwardfrom Ky. 17.

To accommodate bikers,walkers and runners, Ban-croft said this alternative alsoincludes 8-foot multiuse pathson both sides of Ky. 536 fromKy. 17 to Ky. 16. East of Ky. 16, a10-foot multiuse path is in-cluded as part of this alterna-tive.

This alternative would costan estimated $86.5 million.With this option, 37 structurescould be affected and 137 par-cels of land, as well as 77 acresof farmland.

Funding has yet to be se-cured for the project. Accord-ing to Bancroft, the KentuckyTransportation Departmentnormally serves as the leadagency on projects of this re-gional level with support fromlocal jurisdictions.

A final study report is nowposted on the website,www.oki.org/536.

ALEXANDRIA - CampbellCounty Schools will pick a newsuperintendent without profes-sional guidance from outsidethe district.

Board of Education mem-bers unanimously decided at aJan. 11 meeting to oversee thesearch for a new superinten-dent without the assistance ofan outside consulting agency.

Board chairwoman and Dis-trict 1representative Janis Win-bigler said plans call for hiring anew superintendent who canstart working July 1.

Donald W. Pace was hired bythe board Nov. 2 to take over asinterim superintendent throughJune 30. Former CampbellCounty Superintendent GlenMiller retired Nov. 1after beingplaced on administrative leavefor a month. Miller was arrest-ed by police Sept. 23 on domes-

tic violence charges in Erlang-er.

Campbell County Schools,based in Alexandria, has about5,000 students. The district op-erates five elementary schools,a high school, a middle schooland other alternative programs.The district has about 700 em-ployees and an operating bud-get of about $42 million.

“I think the board is capableof doing this in house,” District2 board member Gary Combssaid. “And because I’m confi-dent with that it can also savethe district anywhere from$8,000 to $10,000 by not using aservice outside the district.”

Kentucky law allows theboard to consider using a pro-fessional search consultant in-cluding the Kentucky Associa-tion of School Administrators orKentucky School Boards Asso-ciation, Winbigler said.

Winbigler said statelaw dictates most of theprocedures a search com-mittee and the board haveto follow for hiring a newsuperintendent.

Pace recommendedthe board oversee thesearch committee proc-ess.

“You have the latitudeto make the final decisionfor the selection of the su-perintendent for theCampbell County schoolsystem,” Pace said.

Winbigler said she hasexperience hiring a super-intendent as a teacherrepresentative and as aboard member for Camp-bell County in 2011 whenthey hired Miller.

“The board feels prettyconfident we will havesome excellent candi-dates apply,” she said.

Setting up a time line,developing criteria forthe position, and the proc-ess for picking the searchreview committee toscreen applicants stillneed to happen, Winbiglersaid.

The search reviewcommittee will include:

» Two teachers electedby district teachers.

» One school boardmember appointed by thechairperson (Winbigler).

» One principal elect-ed by district principals.

» One parent electedby the presidents of par-ent teacher organizationsat district schools.

» One classified em-ployee (non-teachingstaff) elected by districtclassified employees.

» If a minority mem-ber is not elected, the dis-trict will have to add a mi-nority parent representa-tive if the district’s minor-ity population is greaterthan 8 percent.

Board vice chairmanand District 5 representa-tive Rich Mason saidschool board members,including himself, over-saw the superintendentsearch process when Mil-ler was hired in 2011.

“The board itself tookcare of all but just a fewdetails and I think itworked well,” Mason said,“I think we have a goodboard to work with.”

Heroin overdoses in-undated St. Elizabethemergency rooms in2015, ending with 1,168cases of reversed over-doses compared with 745the year before.

But the year-over-year jump, at nearly 57percent, is just more ofthe same to emergencystaff.

“We’re definitely feel-ing the impact, but Idon’t think, after whatwe’ve seen before, wewere surprised,” saidAshel Kruetzkamp,nurse manager for St.Elizabeth Edgewoodemergency department.

“We know that there’sa lot to be done in thecommunity.”

St. Elizabeth releasedits 2015 report to The En-quirer last week. It illus-trates the rise in heroinoverdoses the emergen-cy staff turned aroundwith the life-saving drugnaloxone through theyears.

Every year since 2011,when Kruetzkamp tookit upon herself to trackthe overdose saves, thehospital system has seengrowing numbers of peo-ple coming in overdosed.

The emergen-cy staff onlycounts those whoacknowledge thatthey’ve used her-oin, so there couldbe more.

Last year, St.Elizabeth startedgiving away a nal-oxone rescue kitto every patientsaved in its emer-gency rooms. Thehospital has con-tinued to providetreatment re-source guides, butit’s unclear howmany patients areusing the services– or trying andfailing at treat-ment.

Jim Thaxton,coordinator for theNorthern Kentucky Her-oin Impact ResponseTask Force, noted thatfewer overdose pa-tients were taken toemergency rooms inNovember and Decem-

ber of 2014 than in 2015.He said it’s too early totell whether that declinewill continue.

But over the years,the hospital emergencyrooms averaged 62 her-oin overdoses per month

in 2014 and 97per month in2015.

There isalso indicationthat more peo-ple are usingbased on whothe hospitalsees.

“There arenew users ofheroin everyday,” in theemergencyrooms,Kruetzkampsaid. “We wishwe could domore. We treatthem. We givethem re-sources. Butthen we areputting them

back out in the communi-ty.”

It’s a community, likeso many, with full detox-ification centers and lim-ited medical assistance.

“You feel a little hope-less,” she said.

NORTHERN KENTUCKY RIGHT TO LIFE

On this anniversary of the infamous decision of the Supreme Court exercising its raw judicial power over the lives of the defenseless unborn, we join with a multitude of others in many cities across this nation, to carry the message of Life to President Barack Obama and to the 114th Congress. We join the over 100,000 people who marched in a circle of life around the capitol in Washington DC on January 22. As much as we would like to be there, for many it is impossible to travel to Washington. Again, we March on Paper. We openly lend our names to urge The adoption of a mandatory Human Life Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America. WE HAVE TAKEN A STAND! WE WILL NOT COMPROMISE! AND WE WILL BE HEARD!

HAVE WE FORGOTTEN WHAT AN ABORTION IS? A fi rst-trimester abortion is usually performed by suction and is known as an aspiration (or suction) abortion. In her book, Caught in the Crossfi re: A Year on Abortion’s Front Line, author Sue Hertz describes this type of abortion: “…the cervix is dilated with metal rods and a medical instrument called a cannula attached to a tube is inserted into the womb. The tube is attached on the other end to a suction machine, and when the machine turns on, the preborn baby is pulled out in pieces. “The dismembered body parts are sucked into a jar which sometimes has a cheesecloth sack to catch the fetal parts. The abortionist then scrapes the lining of the uterus to get out any pieces of the baby or placenta he may have missed. This is the most common abortion procedure in the United States.” Hertz described what the doctor did after the procedures: “… [the doctor] removed from the glass jar the cheesecloth sack which caught the fetal parts, dumping the parts into a basin at the end of the table, between [the patient’s] feet. ‘Two legs, two arms, two fi sts, a skull, a backbone, a placenta. We’ve got it,’ he announced. “The doctor needs to carefully search through the parts to make sure that every part of the baby has been removed. An arm or leg left behind could cause a terrible infection. In very rare, but horrifying cases, women have actually passed an arm or leg of their aborted child that was left inside them days after the abortion.”

A Change of Heart Graduating from medical school in 1976, Dr. Anthony Levatino, an OB/GYN, not only supported the so-called right of a woman to abort her child, but also was willing to proudly devote part of his practice doing fi rst- and second-trimester abortions. Struggling with fertility, Levatino and his wife decided to adopt, but soon discovered how diffi cult it was to adopt a newborn. “It was the fi rst time that I had any doubts about what I was doing because I knew very well that part of the reason why it’s diffi cult to fi nd children to adopt is that doctors like me were killing them in abortions,” stated Levatino, in an article published by LiveActionNews. In 1978, Dr. Levatino and his wife were fortunate to adopt Heather, after which they soon discovered that his wife was pregnant, and they had a son 10 months later. In June, 1984, the tragedy all parents dread occurred. Heather was hit by a car. “She was a mess,” he explained. “We did everything we possibly could. But she ultimately died, literally in our arms, on the way to the hospital that evening.” The fi rst D&E procedure after the accident, he describes: “I started that abortion, and I took that sopher clamp, and I literally ripped out an arm or a leg, and I just stared at it in the clamp. And I got sick. But you know something, when you start an abortion, you can’t stop. If you don’t get all the pieces - and you literally stack them up on the side of the table […] your patient is going to come back infected, bleeding, or dead. So I soldiered on, and I fi nished that abortion.” Feeling a change of heart, the doctor continued:

He ceased performing abortions.May God bless little Heather and her parents.

For the fi rst time in my life, after all those years, all those abortions, I really looked, I mean I really looked at that pile of goo on the side of the table that used to be somebody’s son or daughter, and that’s all I could see. I couldn’t see what a great doctor I was being. I didn’t see how I helped this woman in her crisis. I didn’t see the 600 dollars cash I had just made in 15 minutes. All I could see was somebody’s son or daughter. And after losing my daughter, this was looking very, very different to me.

FORT THOMAS – YMCA’sin Campbell and Boone coun-ties are in the midst of a fit-ness programs youth kick.

Campbell County YMCA inFort Thomas and R.C. DurrYMCA in Burlington eachadded boutique fitness classesincluding kickboxing and bal-let-inspired barre body andmuscle shaping classes.

In-Trinity, in which peoplework out on an incline slantboard, is the newest class add-ed at the YMCAs in Fort Thom-as and Burlington.

“We are the first Y in theworld to offer In-Trinity andthe first location outside ofCalifornia to offer it in NorthAmerica,” said Kathy Lehr,spokeswoman for the YMCA ofGreater Cincinnati.

Lehr said R.C. Durr has anew MyRide cycling classesthat integrates music with aninstructor and a virtual desti-nation. It brings a new dimen-sion to the cycling experience,Lehr said.

New ClimbMills stepmachines have been added atR.C. Durr and MyRide, Lehrsaid.

The YMCA is trying to bemore innovative and is bring-

ing in new programs, ToddHensel, membership experi-ence director at CampbellCounty, said of In-Trinity.“We’re going to be one of thefirst organizations in the areato offer that program.

“We want to be not onlytracking families, but alsoyounger adults who are intothose boutique style classes.”

TRX, a course started morethan a year ago, uses suspen-sion training developed by the

military, Hensel said. Pilates,Zumba and cardio and strengthtraining, and gentle yoga areother classes available.

A class called ResistanceIntervals Power Plyometricsand Endurance (R.I.P.P.E.D.) isone of the more challengingnew classes added last year,Hensel said.

“It’s a one-stop body shock,”he said.

Katie Steffen, 34, of FortThomas, takes barre classes

regularly at the YMCA.“I like it,” Steffen said. “It’s

an all-over body workout.” Barre instructor Gayla

Hawkes leads classes of wom-en in a series of stretchingmotions across a room withwood floors and a wall of mir-rors.

Low impact is the barregoal, Hawkes said.

“It’s core and lower-bodywork making long and leanmuscles instead of shortstocky muscles,” she said.

Campbell County YMCAFitness Coordinator NickHeiss teaches fitness bootcamp and cycling classes andprovides personal trainingsessions.

Heiss said he meets withpeople of all ages in individualsessions usually lasting abouthalf an hour.

“We go over their goals andfitness needs,” he said.

For older adults there areSilver Sneakers classes. Tradi-tional youth sports and swim-ming classes haven’t goneanywhere, Hensel said. Byadding more classes for youngworking professionals theYMCA is offering somethingfor everyone, he said.

“We don’t want to be knownas just a swimming gym,”Hensel said.

FRANKFORT – TheKentucky Public ServiceCommission has granteda request by NorthernKentucky Water Districtto increase rates in orderto generate an additional$4.8 million in annual rev-enue.

In an order issued Fri-day, the PSC granted thewater district’s request toimplement the increase intwo equal phases. Thefirst phase takes effectimmediately, with thesecond increment cominga year from Jan. 15.

A residential customerusing 700 cubic feet(about 5,200 gallons) ofwater per month will seethe monthly bill rise by$2.08 this year and by thesame amount next year.The $4.16 total increasewould bring that custom-er’s monthly bill to $48.11,a 9.5 percent increaseover the current $43.95.

Other customer class-es will see increases ofthe same magnitude.NKWD last increasedrates in December 2012.

NKWD serves morethan 81,000 retail custom-ers in Boone, Campbelland Kenton counties andis the wholesale waterprovider for three othersystems. It is the largestwater district in Ken-tucky.

NKWD’s applicationfor a rate increase was ac-cepted for filing in July

2015. The PSC conducteda public evidentiary hear-ing on the application onDec. 3, 2015.

In its application,NKWD stated that the ad-ditional revenue is need-ed to meet rising ex-penses, including debtpayments, increasedcosts of complying withstricter federal drinkingwater safety regulations,higher electric rates anda variety of other factors.

NKWD presented fi-nancial informationshowing that it could jus-tify increasing revenueby about $7 million. Thedistrict arrived at thelower amount by defer-ring recovery of certaincosts.

The water districtNexplained that it chose tolimit the increase be-cause of current econom-ic conditions in its serviceterritory, the impact ofhigher rates on its cus-tomers and local resis-tance to utility rate in-creases.

In Friday’s order, thePSC said that it chose toaccept the lower rate pro-posal because there wasno evidence that doing sowould impair NKWD’scredit or result in degra-dation of service quality.

When fully implement-ed, the rates will boostNKWD’s total annual rev-enue by about 9 percent,to about $55.5 million.

PUZZLE ANSWERS


Remember last week when Iwas harvesting greens frommy window boxes? Well, withthe thermometer reading 6degrees this morning, I don’thave to tell you that I won’t beharvesting any more greens

from them.Oh well, be-

fore too long I’llbe thumbingthrough the seedcatalogs whicharrive daily,thinkingthoughts ofspring. Yes, it’s along way off, butSuper Bowl isn’t.I wanted to

share a couple of fun and yum-my recipes to make your SuperBowl party memorable, re-gardless of whose team wins!

We always have a big crowdat our house, and it’s a traditionfor me to make homemadeglazed donuts. That recipe,with photos of happy little souschefs, is on myAbouteating.com site.

Guru in our backyard:Greg’s 2 ingredientbuttermilk ranch wings

I met Greg Grisanti,Frisch’s chef for research anddevelopment, at a veterans’garden event last summer. Wefound we had many similarinterests when it comes tofood. We both like to gardenand experiment with naturalfoods.

Greg lives in Clermont

County with his family and is agraduate of St. Xavier HighSchool. He went on to becomea classically trained chef atJohnson & Wales University.Alumni include Tyler Florenceand Emeril Lagasse, both ofwhom I’ve worked with, and Iput Greg right up there withthem, talent wise. He’s lots offun to cook with, and humble,too.

“I prefer to call myself agood cook,” he said. His re-search knowledge shows in therecipes he develops and finetunes for the restaurants. Likeusing real lard in their pies andmaking 80 percent of theiritems from scratch.

Greg was a guest on mycable show and he featuredrecipes made with Frisch’singredients. I wanted partyfood that was easy and delish.We were both happy with thesewings, which I’m now addictedto. I think you’ll be making

them often, too. You’ll use twoout of three of the wing parts.Here’s my slight adaptation.

3 dozen or so chicken wings,cut into 3’s (save small pointedwing joint for stock)

16 ounce jar of Frisch’sbuttermilk ranch dressing

Optional add-ins: chipotlepepper sauce, ground cayenne,garlic

Preheat oven to 375.Place wings in a 2 gallon

baggie. Pour in dressing,squeeze air out, and seal. Gent-ly massage bag to incorporatedressing with wings. Marinatefor several hours in the refrig-erator; overnight is best. Re-move wings from bag and putin a colander to remove excessdressing. (Now I did not re-move the dressing; I justpoured the wings in a singlelayer on a baking sheet). Placewings on sprayed cookie sheetand bake 40 minutes or so,depending on the size of thewings, until cooked through

and golden brown.Serve with Frisch’s blue

cheese dressing as a dippingsauce along with celery sticksif you like.

Baked jalapeno poppersPerfect party food with a

spicy bite. A perennial fave.1 pound nice size jalapenos,

halved and seededFilling:8 ounces cream cheese1 cup shredded sharp ched-

dar1 cup shredded Jack cheese6 bacon strips, cooked crisp

and crumbled1/2 teaspoon garlic powderSalt to tasteBreadcrumbs, regular or

PankoPreheat oven to 325. Blend

everything but breadcrumbstogether. Put about 2 table-spoons into each half and rollin crumbs. Place on sprayedbaking pan and bake for 20 to35 minutes. The longer you

bake them, the milder theybecome.

Readers want to knowNatural and Dutch cocoa -

what’s the diff?Without getting too tech-

nical, the difference is acid.Natural cocoa powder: the

more common one, is cocoathat does not have its acidstripped. It’s a light cocoa colorwith a bitter flavor.

Dutch processed/alkalized:is a darker color due to a potas-sium solution that neutralizesthe acidity. It has a mellower,less bitter flavor.

A publication of

While our main responsibil-ity this 60-day session rests

with creatingthe state’s nexttwo-yearspending plan,each meetingof the Ken-tucky GeneralAssemblybrings with it avigorous dis-cussion of is-sues, both oldand new. This2016 session is

no exception.For almost 15 years, the leg-

islature has considered legis-lation that would expunge thelegal records of certain low-level felony offenders whohave moved forward on theright path without further of-fenses or violations. Often,what begins as a youthful mis-take for these individuals be-comes a life sentence as oppor-tunities for employment, edu-

cation and housing disappearwith the acknowledgment of apast felony conviction.

The expungement issueseems to be gaining more trac-tion this year, as several of mycolleagues in the House major-ity continue their dedicated ef-forts on this front, while at-tracting additional supportfrom new Gov. Matt Bevin andsuch organizations as the Ken-tucky Chamber of Commerce,the Catholic Conference ofKentucky, Kentucky Councilof Churches, and the KentuckyCenter for Economic Policy.

House Bill 40, sponsored byHouse Judiciary ChairmanDarryl Owens of Louisville,co-sponsored by myself andseveral others, would allow ex-pungement of Class D felonieswith input from all affectedparties including any victims.It would exclude, however, theopportunity for expungementfor anyone who has multiplefelony convictions, a sex

crime, or a crime against achild or an elderly person. Af-ter being a law-abiding citizenfor five years, an individualcan have a second chance for agood job and a good life.

The bill was approved over-whelmingly – as it has in yearspast – by the full House. Afteran 80-11 vote, House Bill 40now heads to the Senate, whereit has repeatedly failed to gainapproval.

Supporters say delaying ap-proval of the bill keeps morethan 100,000 Kentuckians fromgetting a second chance, andcurtails job growth at a timewhen the need for qualified,skilled workers continues tosurge.

It’s completely unfathom-able to me how anyone couldabuse a child, but unfortunate-ly, many sessions find us con-sidering legislation that tight-ens efforts to protect ouryoungest citizens. House Bill109, sponsored by Rep. Joni

Jenkins, Louisville, would per-mit courts to accommodate achild’s memory of repeatedabuse, known as a continuouscourse of conduct.

According to KentuckyYouth Advocates, many chil-dren who have experienced re-peated abuse over time havedifficulty remembering thedetails of each specific inci-dent of abuse. Currently, Ken-tucky courts require detailedinformation for a jury to agreeon at least one specific inci-dent of child abuse to find theaccused guilty. This legisla-tion, which passed on theHouse floor by a 91-0 vote,would help accommodate achild’s more generalized testi-mony of abuse and recognizethe effects age and trauma canhave on a child’s memory.House Bill 109 now moves tothe Senate for action.

Health issues are a commontopic each session, and justthis week, the House Commit-

tee on Health and Welfare ap-proved legislation that wouldopen the door for many unde-rinsured Kentuckians to re-ceive colon cancer screenings.

House Bill 115, sponsoredby House Health and WelfareCommittee Chair Tom Burchof Louisville, would expandcurrent law that limits screen-ings under the state’s ColonCancer Screening Program toinclude uninsured Kentuck-ians between the ages of 50-64or uninsured persons deemedat high risk for the disease.

These are just some of thebills we’ve begun to considerthis time around. As we con-tinue I hope that you will con-tact me with your questions orconcerns either by e-mail [email protected] orcalling the Legislative Mes-sage Line toll-free at 1-800-372-7181.

Bill would expunge low-level felony records

Rep. DennisKeeneCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

Last week’s questionWhat changes, if any, would

you make to the primary system(or in the case of Kentucky Repub-licans, their new caucus system)for choosing presidential candi-dates?

“Not necessarily limited tothe primary system, rather ourentire election system, I wouldmake the whole thing shorter.My proposal would state thatthe ‘election cycle’ will start nomore than three months prior tothe election. One week to regis-ter as a candidate, one week toBS the public via media, twoweeks to hold the primaries (all

of them), two months to furtherstate your case to the votingpublic including one debate permonth, one day off and then theelection is held. One additionalrefinement to this incredibly

practical plan would be that po-litical ads would be run on onespecial channel only, 24/7. Ifpeople want to hear all the BSthey can choose to turn on thatchannel for enlightenment.

“Oh, two more terrific re-finements that I know you willlove, they are beautiful: 1) Termlimits. Two terms and done,then go get a real job like therest of us. 2) No pensions, nocontinued salary for life, nospecial health care programother than those offered to com-mon folks. It is called publicservice for a reason.”

With another New Yearcomes a new, busy legisla-tive session in the KentuckyGeneral Assembly. This

week Ihave beenfocused onlegislationthat re-peals theprevailingwage re-quirementfor schooldistricts.The pre-vailingwage is the

hourly base wage and fringerate paid to workers and la-borers when working onpublic works projects thatare estimated to cost morethan $250,000.

On Tuesday, I spoke be-fore the Senate Appropria-tions and Revenue Commit-tee on Senate Bill (SB) 9,which would eliminate therequirements to pay work-ers a regional prevailingwage on publicly fundedschool construction pro-jects. The bill, which is sup-ported by the school super-intendents across the com-monwealth, successfullypassed through committeewith only one “nay” vote.

Repealing the prevailingwage for construction ofany elementary, secondary,or postsecondary educationbuildings and facilities isimportant for our entirecommonwealth, but it willalso have a serious impact inmy home region of North-ern Kentucky.

SB 9 will help significant-ly reduce the cost of schoolconstruction. A recent Leg-islative Research Commis-sion study found that pre-vailing wage requirementsincreased labor costs for asample of school projects by51 percent relative to whatlabor costs would have been

if workers were paid thesame rate they earn on pri-vate construction projects.The fiscal analysis of SB 9,prepared by Commissionstaff, indicates that exempt-ing school constructionfrom the prevailing wagewould reduce elementaryand secondary constructioncosts by approximately 7.9percent.

While prevailing wagelaws result in higher wages,they do not ensure that high-er quality workers arehired. Sixty percent of theworkers on school projectssampled by staff were paidmore on prevailing wageprojects than they earned onprivate projects. However,in these cases, workers’wages were increased with-out an equivalent increasein quality. In fact, despitewhat the critics say, I haveyet to see a study that showsthat paying the prevailingwage will result in a betterquality construction.

Also, SB 9 will allowschool districts to build newschools and remodel exist-ing schools without placingan additional financial bur-den on Kentucky taxpayers.Repealing the prevailingwage would also provide ad-ditional funding for othercrucial needs, such as fund-ing teachers’ salaries andaddressing our pensionshortfall.

The commonwealth’schildren deserve the best,and they deserve the bestwe can provide now. Bypassing Senate Bill 9, wewill allow more to be donefor our students and teach-ers for a lower cost and withno change in the quality ofthe overall projects.

Did you know that every lo-cal stream has a story? Thesestories tell us why our streamsare in good, poor or even ever-

evolving statesand provideclues about howto improve andpreserve them.

A team of en-vironmentalscience expertsat SanitationDistrict No. 1(SD1) workshard to learnthese storiesand uses them

in our efforts to enhance andprotect Northern Kentucky byproviding reliable waste waterand storm water managementservices.

Starting this month, 13 highschool juniors from Bellevue,Dayton, Holmes, Ludlow, New-port and Walton-Verona willmeet with SD1 employeesmonthly until their senior grad-uation. In these meetings, stu-dents will learn how unfoldingsuch stories are vital to our re-gion’s success. They’ll explore avariety of environmental sci-ence careers. And, most impor-

tantly, they’ll discover moreabout their valuable purpose inour community – an opportunitymade possible through the col-laboration of three organiza-tions – SD1, NaviGo and Sky-ward – that believe in empower-ing our youth.

The 13 students who’ll meetwith a NaviGo Coach and SD1scientists are part of a NaviGoScholars Futures program fo-cused on environmental sci-ence. Started by Tim Hanner,NaviGo offers students every-thing from career and academiccoaching to company matchesfor real-life work experienceslike the one with SD1.

Through the program Navi-Go is linking these students toenvironmental science profes-sionals working at SD1. Whilelearning about our communityand the careers that exist withinthe environment sciencesrealm, they will have exposureto hands-on learning and thereal-life community challengesSD1 faces. Long term, they arebuilding lasting mentorship net-works that will help propel theircareers forward when the timecomes for them to enter theworkforce.

Helping to make this experi-ence possible is Skyward, thegroup behind Northern Ken-tucky’s strategic plan. Sky-ward’s president, WilliamScheyer, saw this collaborationas a way to connect studentswith experts in their fields of in-terest, and ultimately feed thelocal workforce pipeline. It hasbeen shown that students whofind their purpose, and map outa path for fulfilling it, not onlythrive themselves but also helpour community thrive.

What if we all had experi-enced something similar to theNaviGo Futures program inhigh school to help us betterconnect with our purpose?Where would we be today? Howwould Northern Kentucky bedifferent? SD1, NaviGo andSkyward are passionate abouthelping students of all ages –whether in or out of school – ex-plore and discover their pur-pose and you can help too. If youwould like to get involved, I en-courage you to visitnavigoprep.com to learn more.It’s never too late to help a stu-dent discover their purpose.

CAMPBELL COUNTY - Ifyou want to see an entertain-ing high school girls basket-ball game in northern Ken-tucky, Campbell County willgive you your money’s worth.

The Camels have alreadybeen involved in three gamesthis season that came down tothe final shot. All three con-tests were against teams cur-rently ranked in the top 10 ofthe Enquirer Coaches’ Poll,where Campbell County isranked fifth. Those games donot include an early-seasonwin over third-ranked High-lands. The Camels lost two ofthose three games that camedown to the final possession,against Newport CentralCatholic and Scott. Theypulled out the victory againstNotre Dame.

“When you come down tothe wire in a game you justhave to execute and when youput yourself in that situation,sometimes the ball is not go-ing to bounce your way,”coach Beau Menefee said.“We have tried to learn thatevery possession matters,and that if you lose focus foreven a moment, you are put-ting yourself in fate’s hands atthe end.”

Over the past two seasons,the Camels have defeatedNewport Central Catholic andHighlands once each and No-tre Dame twice. According toMenefee, Campbell Countyhad not notched wins over anyof those three programs inover a decade. The Camelswill continue to be challengedby a schedule that featuresseven top-20 teams in thestate, including the regularseason finale against defend-ing state champion HolyCross.

“We were very ambitiouswith our scheduling this sea-son,” Menefee said. “So far,we have handled the toughschedule admirably. Ourtoughest stretch is yet tocome.”

That tough schedule is par-tially a result of the coachingcontinuity that the programhas not enjoyed in recent

years. Last year, Menefee be-came the team’s third headcoach in as many seasons.

“The seniors on the teamhave benefited from finallyhaving the same system inplace after dealing withchanges their previousyears,” said Menefee. “Thisoffseason, we just tried tobuild upon what we had ac-complished last season. Ourmain focus was that we weregoing to do everything wecould to improve and at thesame time build the strengthand stamina we would needwhen the postseason ar-rived.”

One of those seniors re-turned to the team after notplaying last year. HollySchwarber rejoined the teamto play alongside her sisterMackenzie, a sophomore. To-gether, they lead the team ondefense. Playing alongsideher older sister has fueledMackenzie.

“Mackenzie Schwarber isthe true workhorse of thisteam,” said Menefee. “Herdefense, rebounding, hustle,and heart are irreplaceable.”

On the offensive end, thereis no easy way to stop theCamels. Taylor Clos hasevolved as the team’s pointguard and primary ballhan-dler. Senior Kylie Kramer re-turned after missing most oflast season, taking scoringpressure off of Clos (Kramerwas injured and missed theone-point loss to Scott). TaylorJolly is the team’s top scorerand three-point threat.

“Fortunately, we havemany options to score. Whenteams try to limit Taylor (Jol-ly), either Taylor Clos, Mac-kenzie Schwarber, Lexi Kee-ton, or Kylie Kramer arethere to step up,” Menefeesaid. “Every time down thefloor, every player is an op-tion for us to score as we trynot to run plays for certainplayers. Each player knows tolet the game come to them,and if one option is takenaway from us, we simply go tothe next option.”

That depth and versatilitykeeps Campbell County inany game, right down to thewire.

Breen scored a bucketto make it 16-14, then scored on a3-pointer in transition to give theThoroughbreds the lead at 17-16.

After halftime, NCC led 27-22before Beal scored four straightpoints to cut the lead to one at 27-26, the last coming on a transi-

tion basket.Davenport then went to

work, scoring eight straightpoints bridging the third andfourth quarters to give New-Cath its largest lead at 11, 39-28.HC came right back with a 9-1run, five of those coming fromAleah Tucker and four fromMcClendon, and it was 40-37.

FLORENCE - He is not onlythe voice of Boone County HighSchool and Thomas More Col-lege, but H.B. Deatherage hasdevoted the rest of his time tobeing the voice of Kentuckymilitary veterans.

Deatherage is the directorof the Kentucky Veterans Hallof Fame, which had its first in-duction in 2014 and will wel-come its newest group this Sep-tember at the Frankfort Con-vention Center. The hall offame has a permanent place inthe state capitol building inFrankfort.

“I travel the state,” Deather-age said. “I go to VFW halls andRotary club, wherever I needto, to spread the word. The re-sponse has been tremendous.Last year we had 60 peoplenominated, and we only select20 a year.”

Projects such as that ledDeatherage to be honored bythe Northern Kentucky Sports

Hall of Fame in December withits annual Bill Cappel Volun-teerism award, honoring out-standing community and vol-unteer service. Cappel was aCovington native and longtimephilanthropist.

In his acceptance speech, hetalked mostly about the hall offame, which has been his toppriority as he battles health is-sues stemming from his ownmilitary service.

“We want Kentucky to leadthe nation and get this started,in every state,” he said. “It’s nota job we work one month in ayear; it’s every day.”

Deatherage is also in theNorthern Kentucky AthleticDirectors Hall of Fame andEastern Kentucky University’shall. An honoree of the Ken-tucky Colonel designation, hewas a torchbearer for the 2002Salt Lake City Olympics.

He created the current Re-bel mascot at his alma mater,Boone County High School, andhelped bring the FlorenceFreedom professional baseball

franchise to the area. He is thePA announcer for Boone Coun-ty and Thomas More Collegehome events.

Deatherage said the veter-ans hall of fame is one of onlyseven of its kind in the nation,and he hopes to make it a na-tional enterprise.

The organization is a non-profit 501(c)3 and can only con-sider veterans who are submit-ted to them by others. Only aperson’s post-military life andcommunity service is consid-ered, and names are removedfrom applications when re-viewed by the committee.

“We’ve had brigadier gener-als, commanders, cooks, pri-vates,” Deatherage said. “Rankmakes no different to us, it’swhat they’ve done after.”

The hall of fame gets no cor-porate sponsorship and relieson private funding. Deatheragesaid he had a great working re-lationship with the previous ad-ministration in Frankfort andhopes that continues after therecent inauguration of Repub-

lican Matt Bevin. Bevin’s lieu-tentant governor, JaneanHampton, was already induct-ed into the Veterans Hall ofFame before she ran for office,and Bevin was an Army cap-tain.

“He was quoted on TV as be-ing very proud of (Hampton)for the hall of fame,” Deather-age said. “That’s good; thatmeans he knows we’re here, sohopefully that’s a good sign.”

For more information on theveterans hall of fame, visitwww.KyVeterans.org.

Joe Brennan, the presidentof the NKY Sports Hall ofFame, also was a recipient ofthe Bill Cappel award. Hehelped Deatherage start theveterans hall of fame and hasbeen an important archivist ofNorthern Kentucky history,running the sports hall of fameand working with the Behrin-ger-Crawford Museum in De-vou Park on a variety of exhib-its.

George Stoll said. “Games likethis, if you want to win gamesagainst good teams, your bestplayers have to step up, and shedid. She made a lot of toughshots. I’m so proud of her. Shedeserved it.”

The teams traded points andit was 42-39. McClendon misseda three and Davenport scored intransition to push the lead backto five at 44-39.

McClendon made two freethrows with 1:35 left to make it44-41.

NCC turned it over but HCmissed a jumper, then NCCturned it over again. Tuckerdrew a foul in transition with1:01 to go and made both free-bies , and NCC led 44-43.

Davenport made two freethrows with 57 seconds to go.Tucker missed a three. Crigler’sputback attempt missed, butNCC turned it over on the otherend and the Indians got the ballback with 30 seconds to go,down three.

McClendon hit a 3-pointerfrom the wing to tie it, and NCCcalled a timeout with six sec-onds to go. They gave the ball to

Davenport, who drove into thelane and put up a floater, but itrimmed out at the buzzer, andOT ensued.

Stoll’s message to his teamentering the extra session wassimple.

“That was fun,” Stoll said.“After McClendon hit thatthree, we were a little down. Itold them I love basketball. Thisis fun . This is why you playgames like this. I wouldn’t wantto be with anyone else right now.They got fired up then and cameout on top.”

Davenport, the only senioron the team, takes that responsi-bility to heart. She scored her1,000th career point in a quarter-final win over Dayton Jan. 13.

“It’s important, keeping myteammates upbeat,” she said. “Ijust want to be the rock for myteam and get them to state.”

With such a young teamaround Davenport, the headcoach has been stressing dailyimprovement.

“I don’t know what everyonethought we would do this year,but we always have high expec-tations that we set for our-selves,” Stoll said. “We justwant to get better every day andif that means we win the region,we win the region. We just wantto get better every day.”

As part of their con-tinuing effort to “Say Noto Drugs,” the FlorenceElks recently distributed18,000 red ribbons to ele-mentary schools inBoone, Kenton and Camp-bell counties.

The Red Ribbon pro-gram was started to honorEnrigue (Kiki) Camarena,who was killed while at-tempting to expose a ma-jor drug operation in Feb-ruary 1985. Shortly afterKiki’s death, Congress-man Duncan Hunter andCalexico High Schoolclassmate Henry Lazanolaunched Camareno clubsin Kiki’s hometown of Ca-lexico, California. Clubmembers wore red rib-bons and pledged to leaddrug free lives.

The Elks have been asupporter since the begin-ning. Congress officiallyestablished Red RibbonWeek in 1988. Red RibbonWeek is celebrated annu-ally the last week of Octo-ber.

Many of us start theNew Year with the in-tentions to make thisyear different. We oftenmake New Year’s resolu-tions which focus onimproving our health,reducing stress or sav-ing money.

Although we are justa few weeks into theNew Year, we have prob-

ably alreadyfound that un-fortunately, goodintentions alonewill not lead to achange. To besuccessful youneed to develop aplan to make thisyear different. ANew Year’s reso-lution is simply agoal that you setfor you and your familyduring the next 12months.

As with any goal, thefirst step is to write itdown. It can be as sim-ple as one to three sen-tences that address whatyou want to accomplishand when you want toaccomplish it. Makecertain that your NewYear’s resolution is at-tainable. Many of usmay want to win thelottery, but this is notsomething that is real-istic for most, so makecertain your goal is with-in reach.

Post your goal in avisible place that willserve as a daily remind-er to what you are work-ing toward. This mightbe in the laundry roomor on the refrigeratordoor.

Next, develop a gameplan. What steps do youneed to take to accom-plish your goal? If yourgoal is pay off a specificamount on your creditcards, how much do youneed to save per month?Identify some areaswhere you can reduceother expenses to havethe additional money topay on your credit cards.Can you set up auto-matic payments to makeit easier to make the

extra payment?There is no

doubt that manyNew Year’s reso-lutions fail dueto unforeseenobstacles. Take afew minutes toidentify the ob-stacles whichmay limit yoursuccess. Identi-fying potential

obstacles before theyoccur may help you de-velop a game plan toovercome the obstacle.

Think about how youmight avoid the obstacleor what resources youhave that could help youovercome the obstacle.For example, if yourresolution is to reduceyour credit card debt,maybe your first stepshould be to save a smallemergency fund, such as$500 or $1,000, so thatwhen a financial obsta-cle occurs, you can usecash instead of yourcredit card.

Track your progressand recognize smallaccomplishments as youachieve them. Do notfeel discouraged if youneed to rework yourgame plan. The mostimportant thing is to notgive up. If you miss amilestone or have a mi-nor setback, take theopportunity to learnfrom the obstacle. Whatwent wrong? What couldyou have done differ-ently? Use this informa-tion to rewrite your planof action to help you stayon track to accomplish-ing your financial goals.

It doesn’t matter whereyou look on the Internetthese days. The scammersare out there hoping to getyour attention.

Jason, of Greater Cin-cinnati, wrote me: “A ladyand her husband are livingoff robbing good people –and maybe exposing themwill keep them from get-ting other people.”

Jason says he saw yardsales posted by thesepeople on several web-sites. He writes, “Theyhave multiple ads tryingto sell everything frompurebred puppies to carsand TVs. Recently theysold me a broken Playsta-tion 3. It didn’t work andafter trying to contactthem I was blocked andignored.”

Jason says after hereported the sellers to thewebsite on which hebought the unit, he “start-ed hearing about how theyhave scammed manyyoung people into buyingbroken or falsely adver-tised items.”

Ohio Attorney GeneralMike DeWine says in 2015his office received about30 complaints from peoplewho said they bought apuppy or other pet online,but never received any-thing in return. The aver-age loss to consumers wasabout $1,200.

As was the case withJason, the key to stoppingthis fraud is to ask to seethe item being sold inperson before you makeany payments. Just seeinga picture of the item or thepuppy online is not enoughto protect you from thesescammers.

According to DeWine,

“In a typ-ical puppyscam aconsumerfinds an adfor a puppyonline. Theconsumercommuni-cates withthe seller,agrees to

buy the puppy and eventu-ally wires a few hundreddollars to have the puppydelivered.”

Rather than receivingthe puppy the consumergets a demand for moremoney either to pay forinsurance or transporta-tion costs. If the consumerdoesn’t pay the seller maythreaten to turn him in foranimal abuse.

Research any breedersand sellers carefully be-fore you agree to buyanything. Remember,Jason says when he did alittle checking he startedhearing about many oth-ers who were alsoscammed. If you can’t findanything about a breederyou need to be skepticalbecause the attorney gen-eral says some scam art-ists change names reg-ularly to trick consumers.

When it comes to pup-pies, be sure to see it firstand try to take it to anindependent veterinarianfor a health exam beforeagreeing to buy it. Finally,never wire money to astranger because it is nextto impossible to get it backif there’s a fraud.

Individuals whose sib-lings have died while serv-ing in the U.S. ArmedForces may now apply fora Gold Star Sibling licenseplate thanks, in part, tolegislation passed in the2015 Regular Session ofthe General Assembly.

House Bill 209, whichpassed both chambersunanimously, expands theGold Star plate eligibilityto siblings of fallen he-roes. Until this legislation,only parents and spousesof the deceased were enti-tled to apply.

“We honor our fallenheroes by taking care ofthe loved ones they leavebehind,” said Gov. MattBevin, a U.S. Army veter-an. “The Gold Star Siblinglicense plate reminds us ofthe sacrifice of the entirefamily. I would ask allKentuckians to showproper respect and grati-tude to those who displayGold Star license plates.”

“We can never thankthese families enough fortheir sacrifice,” said Lt.Gov. Jenean Hampton, aU.S. Air Force veteran.“What a tremendous trib-ute to our fallen heroes toallow siblings to honortheir loved ones with thisspecialty plate.”

“We are grateful to theKentucky TransportationCabinet for helping us de-velop and offer a licenseplate that recognizes ourKentucky Gold Star Sib-lings. We encourage ev-eryone who sees a vehiclewith one of these plates totake a moment to thinkabout the sacrifice madefor our country,” saidHeather French Henry,commissioner of the Ken-tucky Department of Vet-erans Affairs.

“I am honored to havesponsored HB 209, whichallows a person whose sib-ling died while serving thecountry in the UnitedStates Armed Forces, topay special tribute to his/her sibling by purchasing

a Gold Star Sibling licenseplate. A constituentbrought this to my atten-tion, and the bill’s co-spon-sor, Former Representa-tive Tanya Pullin and I had100 percent bipartisansupport to achieve pas-sage of the bill,” said Rep.Diane St. Onge, of Lake-side Park. “It is a reflec-tion of the true commit-ment and reverence thecommonwealth has forour military men, women,and families.”

To receive the plate, aGold Star Sibling Affida-vit must be completed andsubmitted to the Ken-tucky Department of Vet-erans Affairs. The KDVAwill confirm eligibilityand provide a letter ofqualification directly tothe county clerk office onbehalf of the license plateapplicant.

The initial cost of thisplate is $31, which in-cludes a $10 mandatorycontribution to the Veter-ans’ Program Trust Fund.Each annual renewal is$26 with a $5 mandatorycontribution fee. The plateis available for passengervehicles and motorcycles.

The inaugural GoldStar plate was issued inApril 2006 during a cere-mony in the Capitol Rotun-da honoring Gold StarMothers. Since the start ofthis program through De-cember 2015, 136 mothers,fathers and spouses offallen Kentuckians havereceived Gold Star licenseplates.

Question: What is theadvantage of having acold frame? Is it too latein the winter to start one?

Answer: A cold frameallows you to extend thegardening season andenjoy fresh vegetables attimes when others with-out a cold frame couldnot. A hotbed provideseven longer extendedharvests and much earli-er planting and harvest-ing of fresh garden pro-duce. You can build (orpurchase) a cold frame orhotbed any time of year.The sooner you start, thesooner you can reap thebenefits.

A hotbed is really justa cold frame with someadded source of heat inthe soil. Therefore, it canbe utilized in lower tem-peratures, even throughthe winter. If you alreadyhad a cold frame or hot-bed that you planted inlast fall, you could beenjoying fresh lettuce,spinach, radishes, cab-bage, broccoli, cauli-flower, onions and snowpeas from your gardeneach day.

As spring approaches,you can even start earlyplantings of warm-seasoncrops like tomatoes andpeppers, melons andsquash in the hotbed orcold frame. They are keptinside the structure untilafter the last frost. Theywill be sturdier plants,more “hardened off” thanif they were just growninside under lights. Youcan put a remote ther-mometer sensor insidethe hotbed so that youknow when to ventilate it(when the air temper-ature gets above 65 de-grees inside the frame).You can also buy remoteopener units that willautomatically ventilatethe hotbed or cold frameat a certain temperature.

Heatingcables inthe soil of ahotbed arecontrolledby a ther-mostat, sothe soil canbe kept atany de-sired tem-perature.For seed

germination, you’ll wantthe soil temperature atabout 80 degrees, but thiscan be lowered to 70 forcontinued growth of theplants.

Be sure to keep theseedlings watered with asprinkling can, and fertil-ize them with a liquidfertilizer once they gettheir first true leaves.The only limiting factorthrough the winter is thenlight, so clear plastic orglass must be used forthe top of the cold frameor hotbed. Side walls canbe built from treated 2 by12 lumber. Since you willneed to be able to reachthe center of the plantingarea from one or bothsides, depending onwhether or not the lid isattached and hinged, thesize of the cold frame willprobably only be 3-5 feetfrom front to back, butcan be as long as youwant it to be. Overall sizeshould be in multiples ofthe size of windows orrigid, clear plastic youwill use to cover the top.

Just keep in mind thatyou’ll have to open allthose windows everysunny day, and then closethem again in the eve-ning, in order to ventilateand release excess heat.During milder spells, youcan just leave a 0.5- to1-inch gap on two sides oraround the top for venti-lation

The structure shouldbe on a southern slope in

a sunny place where itwill not be shaded. Thesouth or southwest side ofa building is best in resi-dential areas. Sites shouldbe well drained, withsurface water directedaway from the hotbed.Pile mulch or soil againstthe outer sides of thestructure to help insulateit. It should be reasonablyclose to a water supply,and if the bed is electri-cally heated, close to anelectrical outlet.
