CRESCENT SPRINGS- Nashville native JamesHutchison just moved tothe Northern Kentuckyarea.

“It’s cold!” he saidwhen asked his first im-pression of the communi-ty. “But, it’s going to getreally hot really soon.”

Hutchison is generalmanager and head cheffor Nashville Hot, a newrestaurant concept open-ing at the ButtermilkShoppes in CrescentSprings 10 a.m. Saturday,Feb. 13. Nashville Hotbrings authentic Nash-ville-style hot chicken, hesaid.

“I’ve grown up eatinghot chicken and I thinkpeople will be blownaway by the unique flavorand juiciness,” Hutchi-son said. “I’ve personally

developed the propri-etary blend of spices thatwe use in our hot chicken.I’m excited to bring tradi-tional Southern cuisineup north and hopefullycreate a new staple in theCincinnati market.”

Hutchison is a veteranin the restaurant indus-try and has worked inseveral Nashville restau-rants including Hattie B’sHot Chicken and Puck-ett’s Grocery and Restau-rant.

“Our food is about asSouthern as you can get,”he said. “To me, Southernfood reminds me of mygrandmother – being inthe kitchen with her andeating the food she’dmake. Southern food doesthat for a lot of people, itreminds them of home.”

Customers visitingNashville Hot will be ableto order hot chicken atthe spice level they pre-

fer, along with Southern-inspired sides and des-sert items. Salads, fishand grilled options will beavailable, too. Customerscan wash down their

meals with local craftbeer from Mad TreeBrewing, Braxton Brew-ing and Country Boy.

According to Hutchi-son, the Crescent Springs

location will be the firstof many Nashville Hot lo-cations.

“We wanted to be in theCincinnati market first,”Hutchison said. “We likedthe idea of opening up onthe Northern Kentuckyside. The demographichere, we believe, will helpus build the brand fromthe ground up.”

The company has rap-id expansion plans and islooking at other Cincin-nati locations as well asDayton, Ohio, Indianapo-lis, Cleveland and Pitts-burgh.

The restaurant groupis founded by local entre-preneur and former Tom-+Chee president DavidKrikorian. Former Cin-cinnati Bengal BradCousino is a partner in thegroup as well.

create their own digitalversion that they canemail to themselves orfamily members.

But the exhibit will beabout more than just fun,aquarium officials say.

“We want people tohave fun and learn aboutseahorses, but we alsowant to teach them abouttheir environment andhow fragile they are,” saidRic Urban, the aquarium’schief conservation offi-cer.

Seahorses are an indi-cator for the health of theat-risk habitats wherethey live. They’re threat-ened by chemicals in thewaterways, coastal devel-opments and certain fish-ing techniques, Urbansaid. Approximately 40species are on the endan-gered list, Gibula said.

“By working to savethem, we are working toensure the marine ecosys-tems they live in also arehealthy and well-man-aged,” he said.

Urban hopes that theexhibit will spark interestthat will translate into ac-tion, encouraging visitors

to protect the species.After all, even what we

do locally can impacttheir coastal habitats, hesaid. Keeping fertilizersand other potentiallydamaging substances outof storm drains will keepthem from flowing intothe Ohio River – and fromthere making their waydown the Mississippi toseahorses’ coastal habi-tats.

The new exhibit will belocated between theaquarium’s “Shore Gal-lery” and the “Dangerousand Deadly” exhibit. It re-places the “Bizarre andBeautiful” gallery, whichheld creatures such as agiant Pacific octopus andgiant crabs. Those ani-mals were moved to Ad-venture Aquarium, a sis-ter facility in Camden,New Jersey.

FLORENCE – Restau-ranteur Andy Hajjar,rather than create anoth-er formal Mediterraneanrestaurant, has opened acasual dining experienceon Mall Road that hehopes to franchise.

Hajjar opened Ka-bobske in January at 7563Mall Road in Florence.Kabobske’s menu is remi-niscent, but not as sophis-ticated, as dishes servedat his namesake restau-rant Andy’s Mediterra-nean Grille in Cincinnati’sWalnut Hills.

Hajjar has been serv-ing a fusion of Lebanese,American and Greekcooking at Andy’s sincethe early 1990s.

Food at Kabobske ismade fast either to go orfor dine-in. Customerswatch how their salads,wraps or kabob entreesare being prepared from acounter as they wait inline. Kabobske customersdictate whether they wantsides including fetacheese, hummus, baba

ghanoush or eggplantwith their order. Customordering as your food ismade has been popular-ized at fast food eateriesincluding Subway andChipotle Mexican Grill.

Unlike traditional fastfood no sugar or preserva-tives are served, Hajjarsaid.

Mark Borison, 32, ofCovington, said he comesto Kabobske on lunchbreaks from his office offMall Road because heseeks Mediterraneanfood out.

those young boys at thejail. I understand they canbe real friendly to youngboys like you.”

This is not the firsttime Popovich has runafoul of the judicialwatchdog agency.

The JCC suspendedPopovich for 15 days inJuly 2015 for conduct in aDUI case in which he ac-cused the assistant prose-cutor, Cameron Blau, ofhelping the defense. Blauwas running against Po-povich at the time.

Popovich at the timesaid he did nothing wrongbut didn’t want an expen-sive legal appeal andagreed to the suspension.

Representatives withthe JCC wouldn’t com-ment on an ongoing inves-tigation. The letter be-came public through alawsuit Popovich filed.

Popovich and threeresidents have filed a fed-eral lawsuit against theKentucky Judicial Con-duct Commission alleg-ing their rights are beingviolated.

By serving as judge,jury and executioner, theJCC has violated the rightto due process, Popovichcontends in the lawsuit.

Jeff Mando, attorneyfor the JCC, said the Ken-tucky Supreme Court hasfound nothing wrong withthe JCC investigating anddeciding complaintsagainst judges. Hecouldn’t comment on theallegations against Po-povich.

Popovich has claimedthe JCC overstepped itsbounds, violating his FirstAmendment rights andthe rights of those whovoted for him. Three resi-dents, Jack Moreland,William Von Strohe, andGary Maschinot, say theirright to vote would be vio-lated if Popovich was re-moved because they eachvoted for him. Morelandis president of economicdevelopment agencySouthbank Partners. Po-povich was first electedjudge in 1993.

Popovich, in the law-suit, said he hasn’t violat-ed any judicial canonsand accused the JCC com-plaint of being politicallymotivated. Judges have aFirst Amendment right tostate their opinion incourt, he said.

“Out of fear of havingtheir speech mischarac-terized, judges will fail tospeak candidly and pro-vide the guidance forwhich they are sought,”Popovich said in the law-suit.

FLORENCE –

The pressure be-tween her shoul-der blades wouldnot let up.

And when Ka-ren Lugo, who is always cold,started sweating, her soncalled 911.

“I had no idea that I washaving a heart attack,” saidLugo, who lives in Florence.

She’s young (55 now; just54 when she had her heartattack), in good shape andhad no cardiac history. “Inever had chest pain,” shesaid.

“My arm didn’t hurt.” Nosharp shooting pains, justpressure. “Everybody whoknows me, knows my family,was pretty shocked,” shesaid.

Neither of her parentshad heart problems.

Last April, she was fa-tigued and her stomach wasupset, but she thought thatmight be the flu.

“Since I had my heartattack, I’ve had the symp-toms printed up,” she said.

February is Heart Month.It’s meant to raise awarenessof heart disease, the No. 1killer of women in America.

Lugo is eager to tell wom-en that the symptoms forwomen may differ fromthose experienced by men:

» Unexplained feelings ofnervousness and anxiety

» Tingling in hands andarms

» Headaches» Pain in the jaw or neck» Shortness of breath» Nausea» Breaking out in a cold

sweat These are all on her list –

and the list of the AmericanHeart Association.

“And, I tell everybody toquit smoking … I’d already

started quitting” before theheart attack,” Lugo said.Since then: no more ciga-rettes.

Within an hour of herarrival in the St. ElizabethEdgewood emergency room,

Dr. Daniel Courtade, a cardi-ologist with St. ElizabethPhysicians, put a stent in oneof her arteries. “Luckily,”Lugo said, “it was one of thesmaller ones.” But it wascompletely clogged, she

said.Two weeks later, Lugo

was back at work as a qual-ity technician for a localfactory.

There are no restrictionson what she can do and thatmeans the world to Lugo,who can run and play ballwith her four grandchildren,ages 22 months to 14 years.

“I have three wonderfulsons who are my heart andsoul,” she said. “And I enjoymy grandkids. They keep meyoung.”

St. Elizabeth Healthcareis challenging the communi-ty to make at least one heart-healthy decision each dayand post it to Facebook,Twitter or Instagram withthe hashtag #29DaysofHeart.St. Elizabeth will upload tipsto those social media chan-nels all month and donate $1to the American Heart Asso-ciation HeartChase NKY forevery #29DaysOfHeart shareup to $5,000.

Part mechanical, part elec-trical and all miracle.

As the nation marks Febru-ary as Heart Month, the humanheart is the focus of rapidlychanging technology and ad-vances in procedures that canrepair and restore it.

The mechanics include ves-sels and plumbing which allowthe heart muscle to pump oxy-gen-rich blood through thebody. The electrical system ofthe heart controls the rhythmand performance. The miracleis what keeps everyone alive.

Doctors at St. ElizabethHeart and Vascular Institutecan study its structure andfunction using advanced imag-ing, repair it using sophisticat-ed mapping software and newdevices and restore the four-chamber muscle to its naturalrhythm to move the bloodwhere it needs to go and when.

Options include:» TAVR. The transcatheter

aortic valve can replace afaulty heart valve by sending acollapsible new valve by cathe-ter via an artery in the patient’sleg. TAVR can be used for pa-tients who were told they hadno options because the risk oftraditional open-heartsurgery was too high.Patients can go homeafter 48 hours. Dr.Saeb Khoury, co-direc-tor of the Valve Centerat St. Elizabeth Health-care, said for as manyas 40 percent of pa-tients with aortic ste-nosis, traditional sur-gery is not an option. “Now, wecan offer them something,”Khoury said.

» Mapping and ablation.St. Elizabeth’s electrophysiolo-gists can determine preciselywhere abnormal rhythms startin the heart and perform targetprocedures to restore a steady

heartbeat. » Afib. Heart palpitations, a

sense that the heart is racing ormissing a beat are problemswith the heart’s rhythm. Whenthe heart beats irregularly, it isinefficient. Atrial fibrillation(“Afib”) is the most commonarrhythmia. Patients report fa-tigue, shortness of breath,chest pain or dizziness.

As he explained advances intechnology, Dr. Mohamad C.Sinno, co-director of St. Eliza-beth Healthcare Atrial Fibril-lation Program, repeatedly re-turned to a single theme: betterresults – or in medical terms,better outcomes. Patients“shouldn’t live with it; we canfix it,” Sinno said.

It’s not just young, other-wise healthy, patients who arebenefiting.

An 82-year-old patient re-cently underwent a seven-hourprocedure to correct a heart ar-rhythmia. The next morning inthe hospital she told her doctorshe had not felt that good in 10years. “Those are the wordsthat keep us going,” Sinno said.

“It’s never a job, never a rou-tine … that’s not what I signedup for,” said Sinno. “It’s helping

people, and that’swhat’s happening.”

Help yourselfWhile family health

history plays a signifi-cant role in heart dis-ease, invasive cardiol-ogist Dr. Darryl Diasof St. Elizabeth Health-care has straightfor-

ward advice: Stop smoking andwork with your doctor to pro-tect your heart.

Kentucky ranks 47th in thecountry for heart health –fourth-worst – and Dias wantsto reverse course.

The checklist is simple:» Avoid fast food

» Don’t smoke» Exercise regularly» Have regular medical

screenings for hypertensionand blood sugar

St. Elizabeth Healthcare ischallenging the community tomake at least one heart-healthy decision each day and

post it to Facebook, Twitter orInstagram with the hashtag#29DaysofHeart. St. Elizabethwill upload tips to those socialmedia channels all month anddonate $1 to the AmericanHeart Association HeartChaseNKY for every #29DaysOf-Heart share up to $5,000.

TAYLOR MILL - Resi-dents throughout North-ern Kentucky will be ableto experience the VietnamVeterans Memorial thissummer.

Taylor Mill will wel-come The Moving Wall, ahalf-size replica of theWashington, D.C., Viet-nam Veterans Memorial.

The Moving Wall will be atPride Park, 5614 TaylorMill Road, Taylor Mill,from July 28 through Aug.1.

“Mayor Bell, Commis-sioner Kreimborg, Com-missioner Kuehne, Com-missioner Murray, Com-missioner Reis and the en-tire Taylor Mill staff aretruly honored to be able tohost this historical monu-ment in our community,”City Administrator JillBailey said.

“It is a wonderful wayto honor those who haveand those who continue toserve our military inter-est both at home and over-seas, as well as, bring mil-itary men and women andtheir families, friends,and neighbors together todemonstrate our over-whelming respect forthose who serve and thosewho have made the ulti-mate sacrifice during thatservice. We anticipate thisevent will be a powerfuland moving experiencefor everyone in our regionwho has the opportunity tobe part of its visit to theTaylor Mill community,”Bailey said.

The Moving Wall, ac-cording towww.movingwall.org, hasbeen touring the countryfor more than 30 years. Itall started in 1982, whenJohn Devitt attended thededication in Washington.

He felt “a positive powerof The Wall.” Devittvowed to share that expe-rience with those who didnot have the opportunityto visit Washington.

John, Norris Shears,Gerry Haver and otherVietnam veteran volun-teers built The MovingWall. It went on displayfor the first time in Tyler,Texas, in October 1984.

Two structures of TheMoving Wall now travelthe U.S. from Aprilthrough November,spending about a week ateach site. This is the firsttime the memorial has vis-ited Taylor Mill.

According to Bailey,the city submitted a pro-posal to be considered forthe project and were “for-tunate” enough to be se-lected.

“We think Taylor Milland Northern Kentucky issuch a dynamic location tobe in and has so many ex-citing things going on wecould speculate on whythey chose us as a host ap-plication but outside of be-ing selected the group andcommittee doing so didnot expound upon the spe-cifics of their decision butour location clearly metthe criteria establishedfor such a momentousevent,” Bailey said.

I almost forgot about Fat Tuesday thisyear. So I’m late in sharing one of my favor-ite recipes for red beans and rice. But youknow what? This is a recipe that’s a keeper,and good anytime. In fact, I make it moreduring Lent than any other time of year.That’s because I can vary it to make it veg-etarian or not.

Like serving it alongside pork tenderlointhat I’ll rub with a bit of Cajun seasoning.Or adding sauteed shrimp right before Iserve it.

Can you help? McAlister’s chicken anddumpling soup

Tri-County Press reader Christine C. loves thissoup. She said: “It is not available every day, andone of the three area McAlister’s I frequent doesn’teven carry it. I guess it is up to the managerswhich soups they carry. It is basically a thick brothwith chicken and these wonderful, big, flat, doughy‘dumplings.’ The dumplings are not a biscuit type

dumpling, and the broth has a wonderfulflavor without the heavy celery flavor somebroths have. I would love to be able to havethis whenever I want – not just if I hit McAl-ister’s on the right day of the week.”

Well, I went to McAlister’s in Kenwoodand darn, they weren’t serving the dumplingsoup. I thought if I could taste it, I may beable to clone it. If you have a similar recipe,please share.

Tip from Rita’s kitchenAvoid sticky fingers when breadingYou’ll have 3 pans of coating: 2 dry and 1 wet.

Pat the food into the dry coating, and then lift themout with a pair of tongs to put into the wet, coatingboth sides well. Then drop into the last dry coatingand pat coating on with your fingers. Nice andclean!

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONWhere in the Greater Cincin-nati area is the best place togo for a romantic evening?What makes it special?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via email. Send youranswers to [email protected] withCh@troom in the subject line.

Most college athletics programshave a tradition that students andfans can rally around during sport-ing events. Think Ohio State’s dottingof the “I,” or University of Cincin-nati’s band charging down the stadi-um steps. And, of course, Universityof Kentucky has the “Y” when spell-ing “Kentucky.” If you are chosen tobe the celebrity “Y” at a UK basket-ball game, well, you’re kind of a bigdeal.

Enter our own Northern KentuckyUniversity, whose Division I athleticsprogram is on the rise.

When basketball season began last fall,NKU launched a new tradition of sounding a10-foot gjallarhorn before each home game.

What the heck is a gjallarhorn? It’s an his-toric instrument used to call the Norse intobattle – and after only a few short months, it’salready clear that if you’re asked to sound thegjallarhorn before a game, you’re kind of abig deal.

So far, celebrities who have called theNorse into battle include local elected offi-cials, the Kentucky Secretary of State, andthe chair of the Northern Kentucky Chamberof Commerce.

How the gjallarhorn became a new tradi-tion is an interesting story.

Last summer NKU officials realized theyneeded to re-sand and repaint their basketballcourt to reflect joining the Horizon League.They also needed to reflect the arena namechange from Bank of Kentucky Arena toBB&T Arena.

“We thought, if we have to paint the courtanyway, let’s have some fun with it, and cre-ate a buzz and some new traditions,” saidBryan McEldowney, assistant athletic direc-tor for communications.

So they contacted a marketing firm calledThe Agar Group for some advice, and cameup with the concept of the gjallarhorn, mod-eled after the one the Minnesota Vikings use.

“It kick-started an embracing of all thingsNorse, including the Viking ship on the court,as well as the gjallarhorn,” McEldowney said.

But a giant gjallarhorn and a Viking shipwere going to costs tens of thousands of dol-lars, which was way out of budget.

Enter Todd “T.J.” Johnson fromGroth Music near Minneapolis. T.J.built a gjallarhorn for the Vikings andwas able to build NKU’s well withinbudget, including the intricate soundsystem.

It turns out, “sounding” a gjallarhornis not as easy as it, um, sounds.

For one, the gjallarhorn is very diffi-cult to play.

Enter Conrad Krieger, the studentpep band director, who recorded vari-ous sound options and eventually set-tled on the one people hear today.

There are several ways to sound the horn,but Brandon Hays, assistant athletic directorfor marketing, promotions and ticketing, letme in on a little secret: “Most of the time, ourin-game DJ just presses a button.”

Next, NKU had to build the Viking ship andfigure out how it would transport the giantgjallarhorn into the arena.

Enter Bill Kashatus, former director ofoperations for BB&T Arena, who volunteeredhis time to not only sketch the ship’s design,but also to build it.

Next, they needed to decorate it. Enter Ron Shaw, one of the directors in the

NKU Theatre department, which took care ofthe staining and decorating.

You see, a lot of people donated their timeand talent to make this special new tradition.And in true NKU fashion, they took advantageof something that had to change anyway, got alot of volunteers to pitch in, and pulled it offusing very few dollars.

The Norse have even created two smallerversions of the gjallarhorn (2 ½ foot and 3 ½foot), to be used at other sporting events andspecial events.

When you attend a NKU game these days,you can’t help but be excited. There’s a newspirit and electricity in the air. The studentbody is passionate about their school, andalumni are coming back with a sense of pride.

So “Norse Up,” come check out a game,and see the gjallarhorn in action.

And if you get asked to sound it, say yes –it’s kind of a big deal.

On Jan. 4, I was honored totake the oath of office as Ken-tucky’s 50th attorney general.During my swearing in, Iplaced my hand on the Bible,Isaiah 1:17. It reads: “Learn todo good; seek justice; rescuethe oppressed ….”

These are the reasons I wascalled to this job, and they areexactly what I intend to do.

The Attorney General’sOffice seeks justice and de-

fends the op-pressed. Weprovide avoice for thevoiceless and alifeline for thelost and thelonely, theabandoned andthe forgotten.

We protectthose whocannot protectthemselvesand are the

last line of defense to thosewho need it most.

To us, every Kentuckianmatters.

Drafters of Kentucky’sConstitution understood theimportance of the attorneygeneral, removing it from thetraditional executive branchand making it its own constitu-tional office. In doing so, theyensured that the attorney gen-eral was not either the gover-nor’s or legislature’s lawyer,but the people’s lawyer.

That brings with it a tre-mendous responsibility.

I see the attorney general asthe chief advocate and protec-tor for our Kentucky families.That is why my administrationis focused on addressing thepersistent challenges our fam-ilies face – preventing andprosecuting child abuse, pro-tecting seniors from scamsand abuse, better addressingKentucky’s drug epidemic andseeking justice for victims ofrape.

To help me fight thesetough, persistent challenges, Ihave assembled a team of ex-perienced and diverse leaderscommitted to serving the peo-ple of Kentucky with the high-est ethical standards. Together,we will engage in critical work

like handling the common-wealth’s criminal appeals tokeep predators behind bars.

Our Consumer ProtectionDivision protects you, the pub-lic, from fraud and scams, andenforces Kentucky’s competi-tion laws to ensure our citizensaren’t gouged at the gas pumpor at the supermarket. Like-wise, our Rate InterventionDivision represents you beforethe Public Service Commissionto make sure your utility billsare fair. We also fight to makesure that your tax dollars arenot abused by investigatingand prosecuting Medicaid,Social Security and otherfraud.

Our Civil Unit representsthe commonwealth in lawsuits,and renders opinions that en-sure your government is trans-parent and that agencies followthe law. Through all of thesedivisions, the office returnstens of millions of dollars eachyear to the state and to victims,and puts and keeps dangerouscriminals in jail.

The attorney general is alsochief advocate for victims, andmy Office of Victims Advoca-cy focuses on standing up forvictims’ rights, as well as pro-viding training to prevent andidentify abuse, human traffick-ing and domestic violence.

As a proud Kentuckian, Iknow our state is special, aplace with a rich history and acore set of values and beliefsthat tie us all together. Ourpioneer families establishedthis great Commonwealth asour young nation’s “First Fron-tier.” If we are to meet theongoing challenges of our stateand chart new paths, we muststand united in the spirit ofbipartisanship and determina-tion of those who came beforeus. And that means we canhave only one agenda – repre-senting you, the people of Ken-tucky.

My office will work withany official, whether in Frank-fort or your own courthouse, tobuild an even greater Ken-tucky for our children, fam-ilies and most vulnerable citi-zens.

ALEXANDRIA - CampbellCounty High School had astrong performance at theNorthern Kentucky AthleticConference meet and willlook to do well at the regionalchampionships this weekendat Silverlake in Erlanger.

Drastic changes in the waythe KHSAA conducts its post-season have left Camels headcoach Amy Dorsey and hercounterparts uncertain as towhat to expect from theirteams as far as state qualifi-cation. But she hopes theCamels can make a name forthemselves in two weeks inLouisville.

The KHSAA expanded thealignment from five regionsto nine. This weekend’s Re-gion 7 meet will have onlyschools in Boone, Kenton andCampbell County, whereas inthe past, area schools werealso competing with severaldownstate schools to thesouth and east.

The total number of statequalifiers is expanded from32 to 40. The increase is due tothe automatic qualifiers fromeach region, which remainsthe top two in each event.There will remain 22 at-largequalifiers from around thestate.

“Since there are now nineregions in swim and dive in-stead of just five, we shouldhave more swimmers qualifyfor the regional finals on Sat-urday since there are fewerteams in our region,” Dorseysaid.

The Camels’ top perform-er is Abbie Loesch. She fin-ished fourth in the 100-yardfreestyle and 200-yard free-style at the conference meet.In the 100, she set a new schoolrecord. She also led the 200

free relay team and the 400free relay team to fourthplace with Dawn Cropenbak-er, Paige Hedger and SierraLackey. If she can duplicatethose finishes in the regional,she stands a strong chance atbeing a state qualifier.

Loesch also set a newschool record in the 100 but-terfly and 100 backstroke.

Marian Tiemeier, a statequalifier in diving last season,finished fifth in diving at theconference meet and hopes toreturn. Hedger leads the wayin the backstroke, Dorseysaid.

Top performers for theboys include Logan Steele,who was seventh in the 50 freeand ninth in the 100 free. Heanchored the 400 free relayteam to fourth place and the200 free relay team to fifth. Ina tri-meet on Jan. 23, he set anew school record in the but-terfly. He also has the recordin the 100 free and wants tobreak the mark in the 50 freethis weekend.

Colton Stephany was 10thin the 100 fly and 12th in thebreaststroke. Caleb Neren-berg was eighth in the 200free. Foster Loesch, DamienBlades and Jarrett Vennemancould make the regional fi-nals, the coach said.

HIGHLAND HEIGHTS –The Northern Kentucky Uni-versity men’s basketball teamovercame a double-figure defi-cit in the second half to defeatMilwaukee in the final minutes,75-71, on Feb. 6 in front of a rau-cous Homecoming crowd atBB&T Arena. With the win,NKU improved to 9-14 overalland 5-7 in the Horizon League.Milwaukee dipped to 15-9 over-all and 6-5 in league play.

“The special part tonight wasthe community and the involve-ment, the alumni,” said NKUhead coach John Brannen. “Itwas a great environment to-night. It was one that I want tohave every night. I want to rep-licate that as we build this pro-gram. This arena needs to be-come a destination in the yearsto come. The energy our crowdgave us really put our youngmen over the top.”

A 3-pointer from Todd John-son handed the Norse their firstlead of the game at 66-65 with6:19 to play. A Milwaukee basketgave the Panthers a brief ad-vantage until Jalen Billups con-verted a layup that helped NKUoutscore the Panthers 9-4throughout the remainder ofthe contest.

Inthe second half, we adjusted.”

‘That’s My Boy’banquet set for MarchSubmission

All eyes will be on DonovanPogue when the Thomas MoreSaints open their baseball sea-son in March.

The reigning Presidents’Athletic Conference Player ofthe Year became the first Saintto earn first team All-Americahonors following the 2015 sea-son and enters 2016 as a pre-season first team All-Ameri-can.

After racking up 67 hitswith a .450 batting average anda whopping 1.216 OPS last sea-son, Pogue has a tough act tofollow. The Sharonville nativeis not nervous at all.

“I didn’t realize how good Iwas hitting. Everythingseemed to flow naturally,” saidPogue of his junior season. “Idon’t really feel any morepressure than I did last year.I’m ready to get out there andI’m looking forward to seeinghow much our team has im-proved.”

Pogue is naturally quiet andleads by example. After show-ing patience while serving pri-marily as the Saints’ designat-ed hitter the past three years,he will be showcasing his fullgame this season at first base.

“I feel like I’ve always beenconfident in my fielding,” hesaid. “It’s just a matter of get-ting more reps.”

The fact that he had to bidehis time and continued to im-prove (28 hits as a freshman,53 as a sophomore, 67 as a ju-nior) will be a teaching tool forthe Saints’ underclassmen.Several freshmen may becounted on to contribute rightaway. If they hit a rough patch,or need to wait their turn tocrack the lineup, they can lookto their All-America senior forwisdom.

“They’ll be able to talk to anAll-American who has beenthrough that,” said Hetzer.“He can show them thatthere’s light at the end of the

tunnel.”Hetzer is most impressed

by Pogue’s discipline, selec-tiveness, and opposite fieldpower. He is working with hisslugger to quicken his hands.He believes that if Pogue canimprove that quickness, hecan prove to scouts that he canhit off of pitchers with a high-er velocity than most he willface at the Division III level.

“He’s got a shot at the nextlevel. I think someone mighttake a chance on him,” saidHetzer. “He’s got great platepresence and all those thingsthat are hard to teach.”

Knowing that opposingpitchers are likely to workaround him this season, Poguededicated much of his offsea-son training to improving hisspeed.

“I’ve been trying to get fast-er,” he said. “I’m expecting toget walked more, so I’m hop-ing to steal some more basesonce I get on.”

The former St. XavierBomber was named to the AB-CA/Rawlings All-Americafirst team and D3baseball.comsecond team following his ju-nior season. D3baseball.com

recently named him to its pre-season All-America first team.

“It’s a great honor. I waskind of surprised by it,” saidPogue. “It has a lot to do withmy teammates.”

The Saints must replacesome of those teammates whowere so vital to Pogue’s suc-cess last season. Despitechanges in the lineup, theSaints are confident thatPogue will be able to maintainthe torrid pace he put up lastseason. Even if his numbersdip, it will likely be because hesacrificed outs in order to helphis team win. Returning to theNCAA tournament and earn-ing a World Series berth is hisNo. 1 goal.

“He benefited from theguys hitting in front of him andhitting behind him. Every-body’s going to know abouthim now,” said Hetzer. “Justthe way he goes about his busi-ness, when you have that ap-proach, you don’t really get inslumps.

“He’s such a good characterkid and good mental kid. Heunderstands that the numberswill take care of themselves ifyou’re playing good baseball.”

The lives of African-Americans,immigrants, refugees, the imprisonedand impoverished and homeless aremore than just a professional interest.Understanding and knowing themas individuals is an intellectual andpersonal pursuit.

Beekeeping, or apicul-ture, is a fascinatingactivity for all ages.Beekeeping is an excel-lent hobby that can pro-

videextramoneyand valu-ableeduca-tionalexperi-ences inbiologyand busi-ness.

In theUnited States, more than200,000 people keepbees. Honeybees arevaluable insects. Theypollinate about $10 bil-lion worth of U.S. cropsand produce about $150million worth of honeyeach year.

Beginning beekeepingcan be fun and challeng-ing: many new termsmust be understood;equipment, tools andbees purchased; seasonalmanagement practicesresearched; beekeepingclubs joined; trade maga-zines subscribed to;classes attended. Un-derstanding the basics ofcolony inspection, mon-itoring for pests anddiseases, producing hon-ey, and preparing forwinter are crucial tosuccess and enjoymentof beekeeping.

Before starting tokeep bees, considerthese points. Some peo-ple are allergic to beevenom and can become

seriously ill or even dieas a result of just onesting. Bees like to callthe hive home. If yourespect their home andtreat them gently, thenyour tolerance to a beesting will seldom be putto the test.

Even if you are care-ful, stings are bound tooccur when working withbees. If you are sensitiveto stings, you should notkeep bees. Neighborswho fear bees might notwant hives nearby. Keepyour colonies away fromareas where people willget in the way.

Successful beekeep-ers, beginners or ex-perts, are always learn-ing about apiculture.They often belong tolocal or state clubswhere they can share

ideas and experienceswith others.

On Saturday, Feb. 28,from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. theNorthern Kentucky Bee-keepers Association willhost a Beginners Bee-keeping School at theCampbell County Coop-erative Extension Ser-vice at 3500 AlexandriaPike in HighlandHeights.

Question: Is it truethat winter is a good timeto start grass seed, sincethe freezing and thawing

will helpget theseeds intotheground? Ihave heardyou caneven throwgrass seedon top ofthe snowand it willgrow whenthe snow

melts. Is that true?Answer: Mid-Febru-

ary through late Marchis a great time to startthe cool-season grassesfrom seed, such as thefescues, bluegrass andperennial ryegrass.

You will get a better,more uniform stand ofgrass if you broadcastthe seed directly overthe ground, rather thanon the snow. For smallpatches, rake the seed inby hand. For over-seed-ing larger areas, rent aslit-seeder.

You should apply theseed when there’s nosnow on the ground, anddo the seeding when theground is not frozen, soyou can get some loosesoil over the seeds. Dueto competition fromweeds and moisturestress, seedings madefrom late spring to mid-summer are seldom suc-cessful.

Tall fescue is the bestadapted grass for North-ern Kentucky. Problem

lawns with shade, poorsoil, or heavy trafficshould almost always beestablished with tallfescue. Ask for a copy ofCooperative Extensionpublication, “Selectingthe Right Grass for YourKentucky Lawn(AGR-52).”

Do a soil test (freethrough your NorthernKentucky county exten-sion service) to deter-mine the exact lime andfertilizer needs of yourlawn. Never add lime orwood ashes to soil unlessa soil test reveals theneed; otherwise, nutrientuptake is inhibited if thepH is too high.

Seeding of new lawns

should be done intoloose, prepared soil.Seeding is usually donewith a rotary seeder orthe usual drop-type seedand fertilizer spreader.To determine the properseeding rates, see thepublication mentionedabove. For uniform dis-tribution, divide the seedinto two equal lots. Thesecond lot should beseeded at right angles tothe first. Cover the seedby raking lightly or roll-ing with a water-ballastroller. Mulch the areawith clean straw or othersuitable material. Themulch covering should

Thompson received the award inrecognition for her leadership in establishing and growingthe masonry program that is a part of the EnzweilerBuilding Institute housed at the Home Builders Association’sheadquarters in Erlanger.

be thin enough to exposeabout 50 percent of thesoil surface, whichmeans using about onebale of straw per 1,000square feet of area. Wa-ter frequently, especiallyif you do not use mulch.

Moisture is probablythe most important con-sideration immediatelyafter planting. Regard-less of which establish-ment method you use,keep the soil moist fortwo to three weeks. Don’tbe afraid to mow a newlawn. After the turf be-gins to grow, mow atrecommended heights: 2to 2½ inches for blue-grass and fescue.

By mowing early andnot letting excessivegrass accumulate, thetexture will be finer,many upright weeds willbe killed, the turf willbecome denser, and lat-eral spread will increase.

NOTICE TO CUSTOMERS OF KENTUCKY UTILITIES COMPANYRECOVERY BY ENVIRONMENTAL SURCHARGE OF KENTUCKY UTILITIES COMPANY’S

2016 ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE PLAN

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that Kentucky Utilities Company (“KU”) filed with the Kentucky Public Ser-vice Commission (“Commission”) on January 29, 2016 in Case No. 2016-00026, an Application pursuant toKentucky Revised Statute 278.183 for approval of an amended compliance plan (“KU’s 2016 EnvironmentalCompliance Plan”) for the purpose of recovering the capital costs associated with new pollution control facilitiesthrough an increase in the environmental surcharge on customers’ bills beginning August 31, 2016 under KU’sexisting Electric Rate Schedule ECR, also known as the environmental cost recovery surcharge. The total capitalcost of the projects in KU’s 2016 Environmental Compliance Plan is estimated to be $678 million.

Federal, state, and local environmental regulations require KU to build and upgrade equipment andfacilities that produce energy from coal to operate in an environmentally sound manner. Specifically, KU isseeking Commission approval of Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity for the construction of PhaseII of the landfill at the E.W. Brown Generation Station (“Brown”), and to close coal-combustion-residual (“CCR”)ponds and construct new process-water facilities at Brown, the Ghent Generating Station (“Ghent”), and theTrimble County Generating Station. Each construction project is component of KU’s 2016 Environmental Compli-ance Plan.

KU is also seeking an order declaring that CCR pond closures at the Green River Generating Sta-tion, Pineville Generating Station, and Tyrone Generating Station are ordinary extensions of existing systems ofthe usual course of business.

Lastly, KU is seeking an order approving an amended compliance plan for purposes of recoveringthe costs of new pollution control facilities through its Environmental Surcharge tariff. These projects are requiredfor KU to comply with the federal Clean Air Act as amended, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s new ruleon the Disposal of CCR from Electric Utilities, the Mercury Air Toxics Standards, and other environmental require-ments that apply to KU facilities used in the production of energy from coal. In addition to the projects describedabove, additional projects in KU’s 2016 Environmental Compliance Plan include installing improvements to theWet Flue Gas Desulfurization systems on Ghent Unit 2 and installing improvements to the mercury-related con-trol equipment of Ghent Units 1-4, thereby allowing additive injections to mitigate mercury emissions. The totalcapital cost of the new pollution control facilities for which KU is seeking recovery at this time is estimated to be$640 million. Additional operation and maintenance expenses will be incurred for certain projects in KU’s 2016Environmental Compliance Plan and are costs that KU is requesting to recover through the environmental sur-charge in its application.

The impact on KU’s customers is estimated to be a 2.06% increase in 2016 with a maximum in-crease of 3.35% in 2019. For a KU residential customer using 1,146 kilowatt hours per month, the initial monthlyincrease is expected to be $2.16 during 2016, with the maximum monthly increase expected to be $3.52 during2019.

The Environmental Surcharge Application described in this Notice is proposed by KU. However, thePublic Service Commission may issue an order modifying or denying KU’s Environmental Surcharge Application.Such action may result in an environmental surcharge for consumers other than the environmental surchargedescribed in this Notice.

Comments regarding KU’s 2016 Environmental Surcharge Plan and Application may be submitted tothe Public Service Commission through its Web site or by mail to the Public Service Commission, Post Office Box615, Frankfort, Kentucky 40602.

Any corporation, association, body politic or person may, by motion within thirty (30) days after pub-lication, request leave to intervene in Case No. 2016-00026. That motion shall be submitted to the Public ServiceCommission, 211 Sower Blvd., P.O. Box 615, Frankfort, Kentucky, 40602, and shall set forth the grounds for therequest including the status and interest of the party. Intervention may be granted beyond the thirty (30) dayperiod for good cause shown, however, if the Commission does not receive a written request for interventionwithin thirty (30) days of initial publication, the Commission may take final action on the application. Any personwho has been granted intervention may obtain copies of the Application and testimony by contacting KentuckyUtilities Company at 220 West Main Street, Louisville, Kentucky, 40202, Attention: State Regulation and Rates.

A copy of the Application and testimony is available for public inspection on KU’s website (http://www.lge-ku.com), on the Commission’s website (http://www.psc.ky.gov), and in paper medium Monday throughFriday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 pm at the office of Kentucky Utilities Company, 100 Quality Street, Lexington, Kentucky40507 or the Commission’s offices located at 211 Sower Boulevard, Frankfort, Kentucky, after January 29, 2016.
