Republican voters in Ken-tucky can’t elect U.S. Sen. RandPaul to the presidency, but par-ty leaders are urging people toget out to the March 5 caucusPaul created.

“It’s their one chance to comeout and vote for president, sopeople need to come out andvote,” said Campbell County’scaucus organizer Sarah Camer-on of Fort Thomas.

Boone, Campbell and Kentoncounties will each have theirown caucus sites open from 10a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, March 5,for Republican voters to helppick their party’s nominee.

» Campbell County’s caucussite was moved from Wilder toCampbell County High Schoolat 909 Camel Crossing in Alex-andria by party leaders. Morespace, especially for parking,was needed, Cameron said.

» Boone County voters willcast ballots at Florence BaptistChurch at Mount Zion at 642Mount Zion Road, Florence.

» Kenton County voters willcast ballots at Summit ViewMiddle School at 5006 MadisonPike, Independence.

Paul’s impactPaul, who dropped out of the

presidential race Feb. 4, is thereason Republican Party lead-ers in Kentucky voted in August2015 to switch to a presidential

caucus instead of voting forpresident in the May 17 primaryelection. Paul raised $250,000last September for Kentucky’sGOP to pay for the caucus.

Paul wanted to run for bothpresident and re-election to theU.S. Senate. State law forbids acandidate from being on thesame election ballot for two dif-ferent offices. Democrats willcontinue to vote for their choiceof president in the May pri-mary, as will non-presidentialRepublican candidates.

“Even though we might bedisappointed that our U.S. Sena-tor is not in the running any-more, it’s still a horse race,”Cameron said.

Votes for Paul, or any othercandidate who dropped out in-cluding Rick Santorum or MikeHuckabee, still count, said Wal-ton resident Phyllis Sparks,Boone County caucus chair-woman.

“They may be out of the race,but this is not a winner-take-allelection,” Sparks said.

Candidates gain a percent-

age of delegates in a state basedon how many votes they re-ceive, she said.

Paul and others can decidewhat other candidate gets theirdelegates.

“There could be some bar-

gaining going on,” she said.

Voter turnoutAdvertisements have been

placed to let them know aboutthe caucus and avoid a potentiallow voter turnout, Sparks said.

A caucus is a new thing formost Kentucky voters, Sparkssaid.

Cameron said moving Camp-bell County’s caucus site from acentral site in Wilder to Camp-bell County High School in thesouthern end of the county doescreate concerns about voterturnout.

“It is a concern, but we arehopeful people make an eventout of it,” Cameron said. “Grabyour friends and family andlet’s go to the caucus together.”

How to caucusRepublican caucus voters

will fill out a paper ballot andput it in a locked box that will beopened and counted later.

A voting area will be sepa-rate from an area where cam-paigns will set up with informa-tion about candidates.

“There won’t be shouting orany hard persuasiveness tryingto get your vote,” Sparks said.

Volunteers working the pollswill hand voters a paper ballotafter they sign next to theirname in a book as they do foreach election.

Boone County will have atleast 60 volunteers workingwith voters including BooneCounty Board of Electionsmember Emily Shelton andProperty Valuation Administra-tor Cindy Arlinghaus Martin.

FORT THOMAS -Costs for a proposal topave five city streets thisyear are budgeted at$550,000.

Fort Thomas CityCouncil’s Public WorksCommittee has recom-mended a plan to pavefive streets and build tworoadway retaining walls.

Council will considerthe recommended plan atits next meeting at 7 p.m.Tuesday, Feb. 16, at thecity building at 130 N. Fort

Thomas Ave.If the plan is approved,

residents of Barrett andGaddis drives, DaisyLane, Haywood Court andWinding Way will get a billfor their share of 40 per-cent of costs for pavingtheir street.

Property assessmentsfor street repairs arebased on individual prop-erties’ amount of roadfrontage.

Dill said estimatedcosts for residents livingon the five streets isn’t inthe proposal.

“That comes later in

the process,” Dill said.The $550,000 budget

includes revenues fromstate road aid, propertyowner assessments andcity utility franchise fees,he said. Sidewalk repairson the five streets arecounted in the budget butare not charged as part ofstreet paving property as-sessments, Dill said.

Frank Twehues, an en-gineering consultant forFort Thomas, said allcurbs will be replaced onBarrett and Gaddisdrives. Spot curb repairswill be made along Daisy,

Winding Way and Hay-wood, Twehues said.

Dill said the publicworks committee is pro-posing spending another$109,500 for engineeringand installing two-pier re-taining walls on Water-works Road this year.

Paving Water WorksRoad is among a list oftentative streets beingconsidered for 2017.

Water Works Road, aswell as Custis, Washing-ton and Lafayette ave-nues, are all tentativeroad projects for 2017 orat least within the next

five years, Dill said.Twehues said Water

Works Road has signifi-cant evidence of roadwayslides between MemorialParkway and Maine Ave-nue.

Twehues said planned2016 paving of James Ave-nue has been pushed backbecause constructiontraffic will use the streetduring Moyer Elemen-tary School’s two years ofrenovation which startedlast year.

Councilman and PublicWorks Committee mem-ber Jeff Bezold said he

wanted repairs for Wash-ington Avenue to be“bumped up” on theschedule for safety rea-sons.

Traffic backs up tryingto use Washington Ave-nue because the road istoo narrow in spots fortwo cars to pass one an-other without pulling intoparking lanes, Bezoldsaid.

“That would be an add-ed safety concern on topof a massive pothole thatneeds to be fixed,” Bezoldsaid.

Fire burned stubbornly the eve-ning of Feb. 13 at the RabbitHash General Store. The 1831structure, the souvenirs, candy,

antiques, all that merchandise, solovingly arranged by proprietor TerrieMarkesbery, took a long while to turninto ashes.

The General Store as we knew it isgone. But memories of The Hash willlive forever. The Recorder put out acall for emails and photos describingyour favorite memories. Thanks tothose who shared recollections.

Soon laughter and music will returnto Rabbit Hash. Someday a new build-ing may emerge. Meanwhile here arereasons why everybody cares so muchabout the General Store.

* * * *I will always cherish the memories

of riding in the bed of my grandpa’struck down there to get a pop or an icecream when I would visit. These mem-ories will always be held close to myheart.

Douglas Throm, St. Louis, Missouri

On my first date with the beautifulNora Ellen I knew I’d have to take hersomewhere that would exhibit clearlyto her just what she was in for ifthingsworkedout be-tween us.There’dnot be toomanyfancydinners orformaldances,but a BBQsandwichfrom theScalded Hogand sometoe tappin’at the barn dance wasn’t out of thequestion.

So I picked her up in my old GMC

and headed straight for the GeneralStore. We sat by the river and talkedfor hours before I mustered the cour-age to lean over and give her that firstkiss. Two babies and five years laterI’m the happiest man in the world andat least once a month we go back to theHash and re-create that first kiss andgive thanks for the amazing thing thatwas born right there on the banks ofthe river.

Jeremy Spotted Leaf Turner, Big Bone

My memory of my kids alwaysenjoying their candy cigarettes afterthe parade.

Always nice letting them enjoythings I did as a kid.

Kristy Loschiavo, Burlington

Countless steamy summer nights,cold Sundays behind the stove, andsleepy weekday afternoons make up

my memories of the General Store. It’swhere I spent time with my closestfriends and where I brought new bud-dies. It’s where I first bought beer andwhere I took refuge from my lastheartbreak. It’s where, on the porchthree years ago, I reconnected with anold acquaintance who recently becamemy husband. The Store was our meet-ing place, but as long as our communi-ty continues to come together on thebanks of the Ohio, the spirit of RabbitHash survives.

Becky Haltermon RobinsonOriginally from Union, Kentucky, now in

West Palm Beach, Florida

I grew up in the store, my mothergrew up there and my grandmothergrew up there. My grandparents wereCliff and Lib Stephens. My sister Shar-on and I spent most weekends and

much of our summers playing on theriverbank and looting the candy andice cream offerings of the store. I willalways remember sitting around thestove on Saturday night, listening tofamily and friends shoot the breeze. Itwas a perfect childhood and I miss itand the people from it everyday. Isuppose now I will miss the store, too.

Suzie Langen, Burlington

I first discovered Rabbit Hash on aroad trip about 25 years ago – comingback from some forgotten southernvacation spot of lesser importance.Leaving the highway on a whim tofollow the river we happened acrossthis unique and special place calledRabbit Hash. In the 15 years since myreintroduction to that special place, Ihave learned that Rabbit Hash is aboutmuch more than its anchor – the Gen-eral Store.

Like so many other historic trea-sures in our nation, Rabbit Hash’s“Sense of Place” is no accident. Itcomes primarily from the people whohave poured their hearts and souls intopreserving it; and who continue towork toward a shared vision of whatRabbit Hash’s heritage is and can be.The loss of the original Rabbit HashGeneral Store is heartbreaking, butdon’t let it be a death knell. The RabbitHash Historical Society and theirsupporters have and will continue tosteward this special place and havevowed to rebuild. It may be too soon tosay what form the new store will take,but Rabbit Hash will continue as aspecial place because of the peoplewho love and cherish it.

Matt Becher, Boone County PlanningCommission staff

THANKS TO HEATHER COSGRAVE

“So many great memories there. When my husband and I relocated to NKY we couldn’t wait to visit. Once we arrived it felt like home.”

TAYLOR MILL - Resi-dents throughout North-ern Kentucky will be ableto experience the Viet-nam Veterans Memorialthis summer.

Taylor Mill will wel-come The Moving Wall, ahalf-size replica of theWashington, D.C., Viet-nam Veterans Memorial.The Moving Wall will beat Pride Park, 5614 TaylorMill Road, Taylor Mill,from July 28 throughAug. 1.

“Mayor Bell, Commis-sioner Kreimborg, Com-missioner Kuehne, Com-missioner Murray, Com-missioner Reis and theentire Taylor Mill staffare truly honored to beable to host this historicalmonument in our commu-nity,” City AdministratorJill Bailey said.

“It is a wonderful wayto honor those who have

and 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 duringthat service. We antici-pate this event will be apowerful and moving ex-perience for everyone inour region who has the op-portunity to be part of itsvisit to the Taylor Millcommunity,” Bailey said.

The Moving Wall, ac-cording towww.movingwall.org,has been touring thecountry for more than 30years. It all started in1982, when John Devitt at-tended the dedication inWashington. He felt “apositive power of TheWall.” Devitt vowed toshare that experience

with those who did nothave the opportunity tovisit 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 The

Moving Wall now travelthe U.S. from Aprilthrough November,spending about a week ateach site. This is the firsttime the memorial hasvisited 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 Kentuckyis such a dynamic locationto be in and has so manyexciting things going onwe could speculate onwhy they chose us as ahost application but out-side of being selected the

group and committee do-ing so did not expoundupon the specifics of theirdecision but our locationclearly met the criteriaestablished for such a mo-mentous event,” Baileysaid.

BURLINGTON -Homeless to Hopeful isn’tjust the title of a fundrais-er.

It’s the ultimate goalfor the Emergency Shel-ter of Northern Kentucky.

“Through the Home-less to Hopeful event, wehope to educate the com-munity about the causesof homelessness, howthey can get involved andend homelessness,” saidKim Webb, EmergencyShelter executive direc-tor.

“We want people tolearn how they can helpand that those who arehomeless are just regulareveryday people. Theseare people who want to belooked at not looked past.Our community can makea difference.”

The Emergence Shel-ter will host this fourthannual fundraising event7-10 p.m. Friday, Feb. 26,at First Church of Christ,

Student Ministry Build-ing, 6080 Camp ErnstRoad, Burlington. Theevent features a silentauction and raffles.

The cost is $16.71, thecost to shelter a personfor one night. Studentswho bring a donated itemwill be admitted free. Topurchase tickets or makea donation, visit www.emergencyshelternky.org,or call Laura Whiting at859-291-4555 or email [email protected].

This year’s event isquite different than pre-vious years, said Emer-gency Shelter office man-ager Laura Whiting. Thetheme is “A Passport toCaring.” Each attendeewill be given a “passport”as they arrive, she said.They will be invited to vis-it different stations tolearn about differentstruggles and obstaclesfacing homeless adults,families, students andveterans. They will alsolearn about what’s beingdone to help.

“Our goal is for peopleto leave each stop know-ing something they didn’tknow about homelessnessbefore,” Whiting said.“Also this year we’vemoved our (event) loca-tion to out in the suburbs.We’re hoping to drawmore attendees fromthese areas. For many ofthose living in the sub-urbs, homelessness is anabstract thing. Theyknow there are homelesspeople, but they don’t nec-essarily see what we seeevery day.”

Whiting said there aremany misconceptionsabout those who arehomeless.

“They’re not homelessbecause they’re drunks oraddicts or bums,” shesaid. “The average age at

our shelter is 47. Andthey’re people who are el-derly, sick or have justlost a job. In fact, 40 per-cent are employed andhave jobs and go to workevery day. There’s chil-dren too. Kentucky leadsthe nation in the numberof homeless children,there are over 60,000homeless children in thestate.”

The Emergency Shel-ter, located at 634 ScottSt., Covington, providesshelter which is life-sav-ing in the winter and life-changing in the summer,Whiting said. The shelteropened its doors for thefirst time in the winter of2008, as the region’s onlycold weather shelter foradults. In the summer of2010, Whiting said, they

began providing shelterduring the warmermonths for men who areworking toward achiev-ing housing, income andimprovement of health.

According to Whiting,this winter the shelter hashosted, on average, 100guests a night. Last sum-mer, of the 100 men in thehomeless to housing pro-gram, 74 graduated intohousing.

“We’re doing greatthings here,” she said.“We’re 90 percent pri-vately funded, so we de-pend on donations to con-tinue the things we’re do-ing to make a differencein the lives of others andour community.”

The shelter, she said, isalways looking for sup-porters, whether it’s thegiving of monies, items ortime. According to Whit-ing, the best thing some-one can do to help some-one who is homeless is tobring them to the shelter.Here they can get a meal,have a safe place to stayand get connected to re-sources that can helpthem end their homeless-ness, she said.

Fever bustin’ chilled punch

Sometimes when we have the flu or a cold, a fever is part of it. But staying hydrated is soimportant. We want something chilled and refreshing. This drink does it all: it’s delicious, hydratingand energy boosting.

I like to have this punch on hand even if no one is sick. It’s good for the immune system, alwaysrefreshing and a good afternoon pick-me-up.

Now if you’d like more healthful, vitamin filled drinks, check out my site abouteating.com.Stir together and chill:

2 cups each: all natural fruit punch, pineapple juice and either cherry/pomegranate orcranberry/pomegranate juice.

Lately I’ve been making it with cherry/pomegranate and it’s a bit sweeter than cranberry/pomegranate.

A wedge of lemon or a few slices of strawberry for garnish makes the drink look even moreinviting.

Why this recipe is good for you:The punch contains vitamin C which helps fight infection and builds immune system. Pineap-

ple is great for sore throats, and cranberry/cherry/pomegranate has lots of antioxidants.Lemons and strawberries contain vitamin C.

Miso glazed salmon

Cooks quickly and evenly under the broiler.February is American Heart Month, so any time youcan incorporate seafood in your meals, do it.

4-6 salmon filets, about 6 ounces each1/2 cup packed brown sugar – or substitute1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce1/4 cup hot water3 tablespoons light miso (soybean paste)

Preheat broiler. Combine first 4 ingredients,stirring with a whisk. Arrange fish in a shallowbaking dish coated with cooking spray. Spoon misomixture evenly over fish. Broil 10 minutes or untilfish flakes easily when tested with a fork, bastingtwice with miso mixture. Sprinkle with sesame seedsand serve.

Why this recipe is good for you:Salmon contains all-important Omega 3’s,

good for your brain, hair, skin, nails and heart.

Tuna and peas

Gosh, I can’t tell you the times I made this formy kids, nieces and nephews. My culinary reper-toire wasn’t vast in those days, but this was alwaysa hit.

But even to this day, this recipe is simplyknown in our house as tuna and peas.

This makes a pretty thick mixture, so if youwant, increase the butter, flour and milk by halfagain.

1 box frozen peas, thawed – use as little or asmuch as you want

2 tablespoons each butter and flour1 cup milk1 small can tuna, drainedPepper to taste

Melt butter and flour together and cook justuntil butter melts and mixture looks golden, notbrown. Whisk in milk and cook until thickened.Stir in peas and tuna and cook until peas are done.Season to taste.

To serve: either alone or over whole grainthin bagels or toast points

Why this recipe is good for you:Canned tuna contains Omega 3s too. Peas

are good for your bones and immune system. Theyare good for sniffles, too. Milk contains bone-building calcium and pepper has antioxidants in it,too.

A10 • FORT THOMAS RECORDER • FEBRUARY 18, 2016

On Saturday, Feb. 6, mem-bers of the Northern KentuckyCaucus had an opportunity tohear from a number of constit-uents who attended the NKYLegislative Forum held at theNKY Convention Center. Awide variety of issues wereraised, from funding for NKUto property taxes being toohigh.

I enjoy these meetings andalways appreciate hearingfrom the public. While we willnot agree on all of the issuesall of the time, I appreciatecivic engagement and every-one in attendance having thedesire to make Kentucky bet-ter.

With nearly half of the ses-sion under our belt, some note-worthy dates are approaching.The last day for legislators torequest a bill is Feb. 19. Thelast day for new Senate bills tobe introduced is March. 3.Leaders from the State Houseof Representatives – wherespending bills must originate –have said they hope to gettheir budget bills to the Senateby the end of the second weekof March. The Senate will thenget a chance to amend thosebudget bills.

That doesn’t mean the Sen-ate isn’t studying the gover-nor’s proposed budget. TheSenate Standing Committee onAppropriations and Revenue

recently heldits first meet-ing on thegovernor’sproposed bud-get. The chal-lenge in craft-ing a new 24-month budgetis the billionsof dollars ofunfunded pen-sion liabilities

and the cost of expanded Me-dicaid.

Growth is expected forindividual income taxes andsales taxes, which comprisenearly 75 percent of the Gen-eral Fund. Individual incometax returns are expected togrow at 4 percent for the cur-rent year and maintain thatgrowth through the biennium.Sales taxes are expected togrow at 4.7 percent for thecurrent year, with positivegrowth for the remainingyears of the proposed budget.

The governor’s idea to meetthe growing needs of the pen-sions and Medicaid is to imple-ment spending reductions of4.3 percent for the remainderof this fiscal year and 9 per-cent for the following twofiscal years. The total reduc-tions over the 30-month periodwould save $650 million.

There are exemptions fromthe governor’s spending cuts

for areas that include: Medi-caid, retirement systems, stu-dents’ financial aid, anti-her-oin initiatives, coal severanceprograms, public safety em-ployees, social workers, prose-cutors, public defenders,boards of elections, and Veter-an Affairs.

In addition to working onthe budget, here are some ofthe bills that the Senate votedon this week:

» In an attempt to ease theburden on managed care pro-viders, Senate Bill 20 wouldcreate an independent reviewprocess for health care provid-ers to appeal claims that havebeen denied by managed-careorganizations (MCOs) con-tracted by Kentucky to admin-ister Medicaid. Under thecurrent structure, appealshave to be made directly to theMCOs. The legislation is mod-eled after existing laws inVirginia and Georgia and isanother step in much-neededhealth care reform that couldultimately lower costs forconsumers.

» Protection of children’sidentity was embodied in Sen-ate Bill 23. Identity theft isn’tjust a problem for adults; chil-dren are victims too. In fact,the sponsor said one in fortyhouseholds with children un-der 18 had at least one child’sinformation compromised by

identity thieves. SB 23 wouldgive parents the right to placea “security freeze” on theirchild’s credit report if they feltthe need. SB 23 also allowsguardians of vulnerable citi-zens to place freezes on thosecitizens’ credit reports.

» The legislators’ retire-ment plan was the subject ofSenate Bill 73. It allows a one-time irrevocable opt-out forlegislators from the provisionknown as reciprocity insidethe legislators’ retirementplan. The sponsor said SB 73 isaimed at giving legislators aone-time opt-out to make theirpension based solely on theirlegislative salary and not re-ceive a massive bump if theytake a higher paying job else-where in state government.The sponsor added that itwould save the state more than$6 million over 20 years.

» Colon cancer preventionwas tackled in Senate Bill 78.The bill would broaden thecharter of the Kentucky Can-cer Foundation and the Ken-tucky Colon Cancer ScreeningFund. The fund was estab-lished in 2010 to help providecolon cancer screenings foruninsured people. Since theimplementation of the Afford-able Care Act, the sponsor saidthe number of people unin-sured has fallen, but there aremore “underinsured.” SB 78

would make the underinsuredeligible for the free screen-ings. There would be no addi-tional costs to taxpayers.

» Share the road is morethan a slogan. It is now a pro-posed legislative remedy tohelp protect bicyclists trav-eling highways with motorists.Senate Bill 80 calls for driversto respect a three-foot passingdistance when encountering abicycle on the road. It wouldalso allow motorists to crossthe double yellow line to honorthe three-foot rule. The spon-sor said SB 80 is similar tolaws already on the books in 23other states and would pro-mote “bicycle tourism” aroundKentucky Trail Towns.

» Did you know it is illegalfor garbage trucks to stop onthe roadway to empty yourtrash? Senate Bill 84 wouldtake care of that oversight.The sponsor said the currentlaw doesn’t recognize the ne-cessity for solid waste col-lection vehicles to stop in or-der to do their business.

If you have any questions orcomments about these issuesor any other public policyissue, please call me toll-freeat 1-800-372-7181 or e-mail meat [email protected].

Last week’s questionWhere in the Greater Cincinnati area is the best place to go for a

romantic evening? What makes it special?

“The better romantic places to go in Cincinnati have one thingin common, a great view. Places such as The Prima Vista in thePrice Hill area and The Celestial in Mount Adams are two ofmany such places. The Radisson in Covington has a revolvingrestaurant on top, covered parking and decent room rates. Nowif we could only get the former 5-star Gourmet Room to returnto the Hilton near Fountain Square.

St. Elizabeth Healthcare isfortunate to be part of agroundbreaking study lookingat how to reduce inpatientheart attack deaths by influ-encing organizational culture.For this study, inpatient heartattack deaths means someonedies while in the hospital fol-lowing a heart attack.

Leadership Saves Lives is atwo-year project involvinghealth systems across thecountry sponsored by YaleGlobal Health LeadershipInstitute. St. Elizabeth isjoined in this venture by nineother Mayo Clinic Care Net-work members.

St. Elizabeth is the onlyhealth system in the regionparticipating in this study, thefirst of its kind to look at howorganizational culture affectspatient outcomes. It’s uniquebecause of its use of quantita-tive and qualitative data –which is uncommon in medicalstudies.

Kentucky ranked 43rdamong U.S. states for cardio-vascular deaths from 1990-2014, according to America’sHealth Rankings. Ohio wasNo. 40 and Indiana No. 39.That same organization re-leased its annual report thatrated Kentucky 44th inhealthy behaviors, determi-nants and outcomes. Ohio isNo. 39 and Indiana No. 41.

Heart disease is the leadingcause of death in the UnitedStates for men and women.

The Yale study’s goal is tolearn how patients, familymembers, emergency medicaltechnicians, emergency room

personnel,physicians,nurses, phar-macists,health careadministratorsand others cancollaborate toprovide thebest care andbest outcome spossible.

Communityeducation is a key component.

One example: If you experi-ence heart attack symptoms, itis important you know youshould call 911 immediately.We can’t stress enough thepositive benefits of that.

According to a St. Elizabethtimeline evaluation, more than50 percent of heart attackpatients do not call 911 andarrive by car rather than bylife squad, and they are wait-ing an average of nine hoursbefore they seek care (eithercalling 911 or driving them-selves to the emergencyroom). Making that 911 call –and making it sooner – can bea life-saving decision.

The Yale study, co-spon-sored by The Medicines Com-pany, will likely be completednext summer. But we’ve al-ready learned why organiza-tional culture is so important.As Dr. Victor Schmelzer, mycolleague and medical directorof the St. Elizabeth HealthcareHeart and Vascular Institute,says: It starts with a commit-ted administration that sup-ports innovation and fosters acollaborative environment.

Some examples:

» St. Elizabeth Healthcarewill work with communityEMS providers to improveinformation received fromemergency medical servicesprior to arrival at the hospital.St. Elizabeth is securing agrant to purchase software tosupport Pulsara, new technol-ogy that will enhance EKGstransmitted from EMS person-nel to hospitals before arrival.

» EMS and St. Elizabethstaff will meet regularly toreview processes of care,seeking opportunities for con-tinued improvement.

» We will increase commu-nity education initiatives,including an enhanced focuson the importance of timelyresponse to symptoms and theimportance of calling 911.

» We will increase pharma-cy involvement in care ofheart attack patients.

» We will continue to iden-tify and implement new tech-nology. One example is therecent implementation ofPulsePoint, a bystander CPRactivation app.

St. Elizabeth has estab-lished a goal of reducingheart-related deaths by 25percent in Northern Kentuckywithin 10 years of opening theHeart & Vascular Institute lastspring. Participating in thisstudy and developing action-able items is just one of manyways in which we will con-tinue to improve the health ofour community today and inthe future.

FT. THOMAS - For the fifthconsecutive year, HighlandsHigh School’s swim and diveteam earned a combined teamregional championship.

This year, with Kentucky’sregional expansion, the Blue-birds earned the Seventh Re-gion title for the first time.

“A fifth straight combinedteam regional title means a lotto our program. This title wasreally special for our seniors,who have been combined teamregional champions since theywere in eighth grade,” saidBluebirds coach Amanda John-son. “Winning is also very excit-ing for all of our underclassmenas they have worked so hard forthis goal all season. This alsohelps build our program and en-courages younger athletes to bea part our team’s winning tradi-tion.”

In some of the past regionalmeets, the girls team carriedHighlands to the title. This year,both the boys and girls swim-mers contributed nearly even-ly. It wasn’t just the swimmers

scoring valuable points; Blue-birds divers played a key role aswell. Seven divers scored in thetop 16.

The girls team placed third,while the boys finished as run-ner-up behind Covington Catho-lic. It was the boys team’s bestregional finish in over a decade.

“In order for the team to besuccessful at regionals thisyear, it took a total team effortwith swimmers and divers con-tributing points in every event,”said Johnson. “The team wasable to score a lot of points thisyear because almost everyswimmer achieved a personalbest time while placing in thetop 16.”

Johnson also called this re-gional meet bittersweet, as it isthe final regional for the Blue-birds’ six seniors. This class isthe first at Highlands that John-son has coached since they werein seventh grade.

“Each one of them has con-tributed to the team, not only byscoring points but by beingleaders. They are great student-athletes and people, which is ul-

LEXINGTON – Whenthey’re not wearing their highschool shirts and representingtheir teams, the top prep bow-lers in Northern Kentucky areoften working on their craft to-gether. Many players from areaschools participate in separateyouth leagues during the weekand combatants from differentschools easily become practicepartners, especially those whoshare independent bowlingcoaches.

On days like Feb. 11, when 16bowlers from 10 differentNorthern Kentucky schoolsgathered at Collins EastlandLanes to go after the KHSAAstate singles championships,the players became one bigteam.

“We come from a good groupof kids,” said Boone Countyfreshman Kara Strong. “We allbowl together on Friday nightsand Saturday mornings andSundays. When we come downto state, if one team gets kickedout, we cheer for the otherteams.”

Highlands senior Jake Far-ley medaled at state for the sec-ond time, finishing fourth in theboys tourney. Farley shot 1,174in qualifying (235 average) andlost 247-201 to McKinley Knoppof Taylor County in his firstmatch.

“I didn’t have the best ballworking (in that game),” Farleysaid. “I started off strong anddidn’t finish good. I lost to agood bowler. It was fun gettingfourth. It was fun making itthere.”

Farley was fresh off winning

his first regional title.“I made good shots,” he said.

“I only had one open. I didn’t letthe pressure get to me. I justkept bowling and it worked.”

Highlands teammate AndyCampbell finished seventh witha1,080 in five games, a 216 aver-age. He had high games of 238and 235.

“Last year we weren’t like afamily and this year we’ve be-come like a family,” he said. “Wetry to help each other out in andout of bowling. We bowl togeth-er and we’re one unit. We’rebowling a lot better even thoughwe had a good team last year.”

LET’S CONNECT:BowdeyaTweh

Each year new people get into vege-table gardening. Success or failure ofhome vegetable production can de-

pend on many things, butsome major reasons forfailure are negligence,not following the properinstructions and notkeeping up with currentvegetable developments.

When planning a gar-den, it is important toask a few basic ques-tions:

Who will be doing thework? Will the garden be

a group project with family andfriends, or will you be going at italone? Remember that a small weed-free garden will produce more than alarge, weedy mess.

What do you and your family like toeat? Although the pictures in the gar-den catalog look delicious, there is novalue in taking up gardening spacewith vegetables that no one eats. Makea list of your family’s favorite vegeta-bles, ranked in order of preference.This will be a useful guide in decidinghow much of each vegetable to plant.Successive plantings of certain crops,such as beans, can be harvested over alonger period of time and increaseyour yield. As you plan, list recom-mended varieties and planting dates.

How do you plan to use the producefrom your garden? If you plan to can,freeze, dry or store part of the pro-duce, this will be a factor not only inplanning the size of the garden, butalso in selecting varieties. Some varie-ties have much better keeping qualitythan others. Care should be used inchoosing the seeds, making sure thevarieties you select are adapted toyour area and intended use.

Finally, how much space is avail-able? How much area can be convert-ed into usable garden space, and how

much garden do you need? Do notplant more garden than you need.

Additional planning hintsPlan the garden on paper first.

Draw a map showing arrangement andspacing of crops. If you wish to keepthe garden growing all season, youmay need a spring, summer and fallgarden plan.

Plan the garden and order seeds byJanuary or February. Some plants maybe started indoors as early as January.

In your plan, place tall and trellisedcrops on the north side of the gardenso they will not shade the shorter veg-etables.

Group plants by length of growingperiod. Plant spring crops together sothat later crops can be planted in theseareas after the early crops mature.Consider length of harvest as well astime to maturity. Place perennialcrops to the side of the garden wherethey will not be disturbed by annualtillage.

Finally, practice crop rotation. Trynot to plant the same vegetable or arelated vegetable in the same locationyear after year.

Question: What kindof winter care do myfruit trees need?

Answer: You canstart pruning apple andpear trees in late Febru-

ary, andcontinueinto earlyMarch, ifnecessary.Wait untilafter flow-ering oc-curs be-fore prun-ing peachtrees,since ahigh per-

centage of flower budsmay be lost due to a latespring frost.

When pruning, selectwide-angled branches,well-spaced around thetree in whorls. Prune outenough branches in thecenter of the tree so thatadequate sunlight willreach the innermostfruits. Peaches aregrown as vase-shapedtrees, with no majorbranches in the centerof the tree. Apples canbe grown with a mod-ified central leader (amain center stem goingstraight up, with whorlsof side branches comingoff it at wide angles).

Remove diseased orcrossing branches, suck-ers arising from thebase and all watersprouts that are growingstraight up from theside branches.

When shortening sidebranches, be sure toprune back to a bud that

is pointed in the direc-tion that you want thenew branch to grow thisyear. Never leavebranch stubs. Cut twigsback to a bud, and cutbranches back to a sidebranch which is at leastone-third the diameterof the one you are cut-ting off, so that it cansupport the largerbranch to which it isattached. Do not make“flush cuts,” since theycause a larger, oval cut.The ideal cut is round inshape, not oval, and nolarger than the branchdiameter one inch fromthe trunk.

When making the cut,leave only the “branchcollar” (usually no morethan ¼ to ½ inch) at thebase of the branchwhere it flares out tomeet the trunk. Neverleave branch stubs(branch cuts whichleave over one inch ofthe base of the branchattached … these willdie back and cause de-cay into the center ofthe trunk). Do not apply“tree paint” or “wounddressing” to cut sur-faces, since it harms thetree and prevents woundclosure.

Fertilizing of treefruits may be done anytime in February. Fruittree nitrogen applica-tions are based on theage of the tree and theamount of new growthon the twig tips (previ-ous year’s growth). Ap-ple trees that are atleast four years oldshould have 12-15 inchesof new growth from lastyear at the tip of eachbranch. New apple trees(1-3 years old) may show24-30 inches of newannual twig growth. Ifgrowth is less than thedesired amount listedabove, apply ¼ pound ofa high-nitrogen fertiliz-er (with numbers simi-lar to 34-0-0) per treeper year of age. Don’tapply more than 2-3pounds of the fertilizerper tree.

A fertilizer test (freethrough your NorthernKentucky ExtensionOffice) will tell youwhether or not you needphosphorus, potassium,lime or sulfur in addi-tion to the nitrogen thatis provided by the 34-0-0type of fertilizer.

For Dr. George Chris-tensen III, his work is per-sonal. And mesmerizing.

His passion for theteamwork and the tech-nology that promote bet-ter results for patients isevident. But it was his fa-ther’s battle with heartdisease that set his courseas a cardiothoracic sur-geon.

The opportunity tomake a difference for pa-tients – relying on seam-less coordination at alllevels of care and the lat-est technology – drivesChristensen, one of thenewer members of the St.

ElizabethHeart andVascularInstituteteam.

“My fa-ther wasafflictedwith heartdisease

when I was a much young-er age,” said Christensen,his voice tempered withemotion. “I had to see himgo through the strugglesfor many years, includingopen heart surgery.”

His father, a TV broad-caster, died at age 52.Now, Christensen is see-

ing nearly miraculous re-sults for patients in their80s because of advancesin the field.

February is HeartMonth, designed to drawattention to the diseasewhich is the leading causeof death in the country. St.Elizabeth Healthcare ison a mission to reduceheart-related deaths by 25percent in Northern Ken-tucky in the next decade.

Once Christensen at-tended medical school, itwas clear to him that hewas going to be a surgeon.As he continued his train-ing, he found “it was a

challenging decision atfirst – until I stepped footin my first open-heart sur-gery. It was mesmerizing… and I was really awe-struck with the amount offolks who are in the oper-ating room and how thingsare very orchestrated andteam-oriented to fulfilleach goal in each case,”said Christensen, wholives in Union.

His specialty is dis-eases of the heart, lungsand esophagus encom-passing a wide array ofpathology including in-fections or lesions, bothbenign and malignant. “In

short, I’m a chest sur-geon,” Christensen said.

The challenge is to con-stantly update options forminimally invasive sur-gery to decrease recov-ery time, the possibility ofcomplications and time inthe hospital.

“I think with technol-ogy, much of our ap-proaches have changed.For instance, we’re doingminimally invasive valvesurgery,” said Christen-sen. If you look at heartsurgery historically, heexplained, it’s based onthe same premise of con-necting one vessel to theother to restore function.But increased knowledge,newer skills and the latesttechnology are allowingsurgeons to repair theheart with smaller inci-sions and quicker recov-eries.

“This is all a work inprogress,” he said. “Wehave great surgeons herewho have perfected tradi-tional surgery that hasbeen augmented in vari-ous ways from start to fin-

ish that have allowed pa-tients to get out of the hos-pital as early as four days(after surgery). You lookat 20 years ago when myfather had uncomplicatedopen-heart surgery, his in-patient recovery processwas at least seven, eightdays.”

There is still work to bedone, but, he said “the ulti-mate idea is that we canoffer surgeries for cer-tain conditions that areless invasive, causing lesspain – not having to be inthe hospital as long andhaving better outcomes.”

St. Elizabeth Health-care is challenging thecommunity to make atleast one heart-healthydecision each day andpost it to Facebook, Twit-ter or Instagram with thehashtag #29DaysofHeart.St. Elizabeth will uploadtips to those social mediachannels all month anddonate $1 to the AmericanHeart Association Heart-Chase NKY for every#29DaysOfHeart share upto $5,000.

FLORENCE – Restauranteur AndyHajjar, rather than create another formalMediterranean restaurant, has opened acasual dining experience on Mall Roadthat he hopes to franchise.

Hajjar opened Kabobske in January at7563 Mall Road in Florence. Kabobske’smenu is reminiscent, but not as sophisti-cated, as dishes served at his namesakerestaurant Andy’s Mediterranean Grillein Cincinnati’s Walnut Hills.

Hajjar has been serving a fusion ofLebanese, American and Greek cookingat Andy’s since the early 1990s.

Customers watch how their salads,wraps or kabob entrees are being pre-pared from a counter as they wait in line.Kabobske customers dictate whetherthey want sides including feta cheese,hummus, baba ghanoush or eggplant with

their order. Custom ordering as your foodis made has been popularized at fast foodeateries including Subway and ChipotleMexican Grill.

Unlike traditional fast food no sugar orpreservatives are served, Hajjar said.

Independent Auditor’s ReportTo the Honorable Mayor andMembers of the CouncilCity of Southgate, KentuckyReport on the Financial StatementsWe have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Southgate, Kentucky, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2015, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.-Management’s Responsibility for the Financial StatementsManagement is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.-Auditor’s ResponsibilityOur responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.-OpinionIn our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Southgate, Kentucky as of June 30, 2015 and the respective changes in financial position thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.Other Matters-Required Supplementary InformationAccounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management’s Discussion and Analysis on pages 4-8, the budgetary comparison schedule on page 30, and the pension disclosure on page 31 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.-Supplementary InformationOur audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements as a whole. The combining non-major governmental funds schedules and the budgetary comparison schedules of the non-major governmental funds on pages 32-35 are supplementary information and are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing StandardsIn accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated December 9, 2015 on our consideration of City of Southgate, Kentucky’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering City of Southgate Kentucky’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.
