A family is moved into theirnew home weeks ahead of theholiday season, thanks to the ef-forts ofArmstrongChapelUnit-edMethodist Church and sever-al local churches.

Armstrong continued itswork with Habitat for Human-ity, and along with five otherchurches, makes up the Madi-sonville Coalition.

The group of churches helpfund and build a home for a lessfortunate family in time for theholidays each year in the Madi-sonville area.

Mark Bruggeman, boardmember with Habitat for Hu-manity, said theprojectbegan inApril, and can sometimesstretch until early the followingyear,due toweatherorothercir-cumstances.

However, this year’s buildwent smoothly, and the homewas dedicated Sept. 22.

Armstrong supplied volun-teers at the build site on alter-nate Saturdays and the coalitionalsohadaweekdaycrewof10-15retired volunteers who kept thework on pace to be completedbefore Thanksgiving.

Bruggemansaid thecoalitionhad approximately 150 volun-teers come out in the 20weeks ittook to complete the project.

Marissa Abernathy, develop-ment director atHabitat forHu-manityCincinnati, said theMad-isonville Coalition is having amajor "impact" on the Madison-ville area, having built 15 homeswith Habitat for Humanity.

“They were our fastest buildof the season,” she said.

While the homewas complet-

ed just last month, it’s alreadytime for the coalition to beginconsidering the next home itwill build. Bruggeman said thenext build will begin in a fewmonths, and the coalition is cur-rently seeking additional help.

“We need more churches (inthe coalition),” he said, addingthe Madisonville coalition,while being very productive,has a low number of memberscompared tootherHabitatcoali-tions.

Armstrong Chapel has beeninvolved the last several years,the church has donated $10,000annually toward building thehomes and volunteers from thechurch have been committed tofinishing the annual projects.

Habitat for Humanitydoesn't simply give the home toa struggling family. The familymustpay for thehome throughano-interest mortgage from theorganization, andmustwork500hours on their home or another.

Contra helped out with a Par-kinson’s event last year thatraised $10,000 and decided to upthe ante for this year’s eventwithmore opportunities to get in-volved.

"It's still pretty modest, butwe're trying to expand," he said.

Contra, who was diagnosedwith Parkinson’s in 2009, “ranconstantly” before dealing with

severe cramping after his diag-nosis. He had to find alternativesto continue staying in shape.

"I had to find other avenues,and spinninggaveme that endor-phin high," Contra said.

He said his symptoms vary,but he combats the disease withplenty of exercise, dieting and acombination of medications.

Symptoms for Parkinson’sdisease can include tremors,slowedmovement, impaired pos-ture and speech changes.

MADEIRA—The theft ofObama yard signs had be-come so widespread inMa-deira that some residentshad begun taking them in-side their homes at night.

So residents are prais-ing the Madeira police forresponding to complaintsand catching, officers re-port, two 17-year-olds red-handed.

“I’ve been semi-activein Democratic politicssince we moved here 14years ago, and it wasn’t un-usual to lose a political signor two over the course ofeach election,” said Madei-ra resident Don Bedwell,who lives on Miami HillsDrive, where the youthswere arrested Oct. 13.

“But I don’t think any ofus encountered the scopeof ‘criminal mischief’ wehave seen in this campaign.

“I would say the thiev-ery this election has beenpersistent and relentless inour neighborhood andacross town,”Bedwell said.

“We were beingblitzed.”

Bedwell said Demo-crats across Madeira hadfor several weeks been re-porting the loss of politicalsigns and that the police re-sponse was “impressive.”

The juveniles arrestedOct. 13 face criminal mis-chief and theft charges.

“An officer witnessedthe juveniles steal one signand conducted a investiga-tive traffic stop on the sus-pect vehicle,” Madeira Po-

lice Officer James Zazyckisaid.

“The Madeira officerwas specifically patrollingthat area and observed thetheft in progress on MiamiHills Drive.

“A total of14 ‘ObamaBi-den 2012’ political signswere confiscated from thevehicle and one of theirparents’ houses,” Zazyckisaid.

“The subjects admittedto driving around the Ma-deira and Indian Hill arealooking specifically forObama signs.”

Zazycki said the juve-niles admitted stealingsigns from Mar Del Drivenorth to North Mingo Lane

and Hosbrook Road east toMiami Avenue in Madeirathe evening of Oct. 12.

“While we hope this willstop the thefts of politicalsigns, we are aware otherindividuals may still be in-volved and have not beencaught in the act,”Madeirapolice Lt. Chris Zumbielsaid.

“We would like to re-mind all residents to callthe police department ifthey see something suspi-cious.”

Bedwell had been help-ing his neighbors replacestolen signs – repeatedly.

“Obamasignshavebeenstolen about as quickly aswe can post them this elec-

tion campaign,” Bedwellsaid.

“Some of us began tak-ing our signs in at night.

“Obama signs were thetarget, although someSherrod Brown signs havealso disappeared,”Bedwellsaid.

“Interestingly, thethieves sometimes re-moved Obama signs care-fully from clusters of signsfor other Democratic can-didates, leaving the othersstanding.”

Asked whether theythought the theft of theObama signs was raciallymotivated, Bedwell said,“Since I have only the scan-test information about the

perps, I wouldn’t presumeto know their motivation”and Zazycki said, “I cannotcommentas towhether thiswas racially or politicallymotivated.”

A Blue Ash homeownerrecently complained thathis wife’s Obama yard signwas stolen from their yard,but Madeira police do not

believe the juveniles theyarrested are responsiblefor that.

“It is believed that thetwo suspects were only inthe Madeira and IndianHill area,” Zazycki said.

Madeira police declinedtosaywheretheyouths liveother than to say it is not inMadeira.

Stautberg said he’s run-ning for re-election to “con-tinuemywork inColumbusto make this area, and thestate, a stronger and betterplace to live, work and dobusiness.

Wissman was unable tobe reached for comment.

WHAT ARE YOUR TOPPRIORITIES, IFELECTED?

» Stautberg: “I thinkhelping Ohio continue itseconomic growth and jobcreation is always going tobe on the forefront of mostpeople’s agendas. That re-quires us to keep our focuson minimizing and elimi-nating overly burdensomeregulations whose costsoutweigh the benefits. Inaddition, we need to makesure that the tax structureof the state is fair and aslow as possible so that ourfamilies can keep more oftheirhard-earnedmoney intheir pockets.”

»Wissman: Did not re-spond.

WHAT DO YOU THINKARE THEMOSTIMPORTANT ISSUESFACING THECOMMUNITIES IN THE27TH DISTRICT? WHATARE YOUR IDEAS FORADDRESSING THOSEISSUES?

» Stautberg: “We rec-ognize that local govern-ments are facing budget-ary issues, and (we) areworking to collaboratewith theminorder toallevi-ate those. In the past twoyears we have passed anumber of bills along those

lines, including establish-ing the local governmentinnovation fund, whichprovides funds for govern-ments to establish innova-tiveways of delivering ser-vices.”

MADEIRA — If youdon’t know who McDon-ald Commons in Madeirais named for, you no long-er have any excuses.

That’s because on Oct.13, a new plaque outliningformer Madeira MayorDan McDonald’s lengthyservice to the communityposted at the park offDawson Road was un-veiled in a small ceremo-ny.

“Dan set the standardfor Madeira mayors,”MadeiraMayorRickBra-sington said.

“His commitmentover the years he servedandhiscontinued interestin things Madeira havebeen invaluable contribu-tions the fabric of the citywe all love.”

McDonald served asmayor of Madeira from1959 until 1977 and con-tinues to live in the city

when not in Florida.Serving on Madeira

City Council is a familytradition.

McDonald’s fatherandstepfather were citycouncilmen, as was Pat-rick McDonald, one ofDan McDonald’s threesons.

McDonald has lived inMadeira since his birth in1924.

The experiences ranged froma study of diamondback terra-pins, a type of turtle, to analyzingparticles in the Milky Way gal-axy.

Cincinnati Country DaySchool juniors and seniors, aswell as one sophomore, shareddetails of their summer intern-shipsandorganizedsummerpro-jects with their classmates in themathematics and science pro-grams.

“(It’s to) share what they did,celebrate theiraccomplishmentsand plant seeds for the future,”said chemistry teacher PaulaButler.

Butler and Sarah Beyreis, di-rector of college counseling, or-ganized the gathering, whichalso included teachers and par-ents.

Although the internshipsaren’t unique, this was one of thefirst times in recent years wherethe students had an organizedgathering to discuss them.

DiscussingDNA splicingmaynot be a common topic of conver-sation, saidButler.However,pro-viding an opportunity to sharethis experiencealongwithothersin the math and science field issomething Butler and Beyreisthought the students would ap-preciate.

“I think (each) were im-pressed with what their class-mates had done,” said Butler.“One of our (goals) was to cele-brate their accomplishments andgive them recognition.”

Junior Sonia Bhati, of IndianHill, had an opportunity to studyveins and arteries at the Univer-sity of Cincinnati - College ofMedicine. A focus of her studywas dialysis research.

“I enjoyed working in the labsetting,” said Bhati. “I was glad Igot to do it.”

Bhati said she also appreciat-ed the opportunity to share herexperiences.

“A lot of us were in the med-ical science building (at the Uni-versity of Cincinnati),” she saidreferring to some of her otherclassmates.

Senior Will Bernish’s studytook him to the center of theMilky Way galaxy.

Bernish, who is a resident ofAndersonTownship, saidhis lookat the Milky Way galaxy focused

on mathematical principles.Despite the weighty subject

matter, he said the research as-pect was very “laid back.”

Hesaida lot of thediscussionswere in a local Starbucks.

“An intent of the Xavier (Uni-versity) professor I worked with

was to be able to present the ma-terial I learned in away that any-one can understand,” said Ber-nish.

He said the Cincinnati Coun-try Day School session was agood way to put this to the test.

“It’s a nice closure,” he said.

INDIANHILL—With theirNo.1runner lacing up skates inNewEngland, the Indian Hill girlscross country team “kept it inthe family” and earned a secondstraight Cincinnati Hills Leaguetitle Oct. 13.

It was also their third in fouryears.

The winner of the meet andleague runner of the year wasRhianHorton, the freshman sis-ter of Elena Horton.

Elena Horton had IndianHill’s fastest time of the year atthe St. Xavier Invitational in19:46butdepartedschool the fol-lowing week to pursue a wintersport.

“Elena left for hockey schoolon Oct. 1,” coach Susan Savagesaid. “She’s up in Vermont at aboardingschool.Herdreamis toplay ice hockey for Dartmouth.She ran for the team as long asshe could. Her last race was atSt. X.”

Savage knew last spring el-der Horton would be leaving,but was concerned on how her

team would farewithout the lead-ership. Her nextbest runner wastheyoungerHor-ton.

In the CHLmeet, the littlesister did some-thing did the big

sister hadn’t done.“Elena gave Rhian some ad-

vice that Friday on how to runagainst the girl from Taylor,”Savage said. “I predicted Rhianto be second or third in the raceand she finished first.”

The 19:51 time was just fiveseconds off of her older sister’sbest.

Further helping the LadyBraves was the emergence ofseniors Jenny Blazic and Britta-ny Brown. A year ago, Blazicplayed soccer and Brown washitting volleyballs.

In their first year of crosscountry, Blazic took eighth attheCHLmeet in21:15andBrownwas 11th in 21:23.50.

“Theybothgot leaguemedalsand were second team all-league,” Savage said.

Sophomore Sara Schwane-kamp is now the No. 2 runnerand came in seventh at 21:05.50.Rounding out the top 20 were

sophomore Kelli Gerlinger in13th in 21:37.10; freshman AnnaDefendiefer 14th in 21:44.10 andsenior Laura Martz 19th in22:04.90.

In all, seven Lady Bravesrunners were under 22 minutes.

“It’s bang, bang, bang, bang,”Savage said.

As for the Indian Hill boys,they finished third. However, itwas a more impressive thirdplace than last season.

“This year we were just fourpoints out of second and 20points out of first,” Savage said.“Last year we were 60 pointsfrom second and 78 from third.”

Senior John Stephen toppedthe Braves in sixth in 17:35;freshman Trent Geyer waseighth in17:36 and senior AustinHughes was ninth in 17:38. Be-hind that group was junior JoeMajschzak was 20th in 18:19;sophomoreWells Coalfleet 22ndat 18:33.80; junior Josh Leibel23rd in 18:33.90 and senior Ma-son McClay 24th in 18:34.

Both squads finished secondin theDivision II districtmeet tomove on toTroyOct. 27. Stephenagain led the boys with a fifth-place finish in 17:24; Rhian Hor-ton took fifth in the girls race at20:01. The regional meet in Troyis Oct. 27.

Elena Horton of Indian Hill (red) and Taylor's Mckenzie McDaniel (yellow) race at the St. XavierInvitational in September. It would be Elena Horton’s last Indian Hill race as she left in October to pursue acollegiate hockey career. Her younger sister, Rhian, stepped in for the Braves and was named CHL runnerof the year.

COLUMBUS— It was a self-de-scribed tough season for Cincin-nati CountryDay’sDanielleWolf,but the junior’s dedicated effortspaid dividends in the end.

Wolf qualified for the OHSAAstate tennis tournament on theheels of winning the Division IIdistrict title at the Lindner Fam-ily Tennis Center Oct. 6.

She defeated Haley Thoresenof Wyoming to take the top spotfor the second-straight season.

“Haley is huge competition;she always gives me a goodmatch,” Wolf said. “I was just

playing my best and it was justtough, but it got mementally andphysically prepared for the statetournament.”

Wolf entered the postseasonbattle tested. She routinelyplayed against players from oth-er top-ranked teams, such asSummit, CCD and CHCA.

The rigors of those matcheshelpedWolf prepare for the post-season because she constantlyhad to study her opponents andfigure out ways to beat them.

“I was trying to figure outwhat their strengths are so Icould figure outwhat parts ofmygame I had to improve on,” shesaid.

The 2012 campaign markedthe second season Wolf qualifiedfor state.

As a freshman in 2011, she ad-vanced to the quarterfinals.Along the way, Wolf learned howserious the competition is at thestate level.

“I learned thegirls reallywantit and they are working so hardand to compete at that level. I’llhave to work harder than I wasbecause I want to be as good asthem,” she said.

During this year’s state tour-nament, Wolf earned a first-round victory over Beachwood’sAnnaRetsch before falling toRa-chelMoralesofColumbusBishop

Hartley in round two.Wolf, along with the doubles

team of Caroline Blackburn andMacKenzie Patterson, helpedguide the Indians to theNo. 3 spotin the final Enquirer Division IIcoaches’ poll.

Blackburn and Patterson gotto state by defeating the SevenHills team of Jessica Seibold andGraceHein the thirdplacematchat districts.

The duo gave a solid effort butfell to Gahanna Columbus Acad-emy’sAndreaBallinger andHan-nahWexner in theopening round.

In 2010, Blackburn reachedthestate tournamentwithher sis-ter, Elizabeth.

KENWOOD — Coming off thesecond-lowest Cincinnati Eastsectional score ever with fourCrusaders at 291, Moeller golfcoachRickBohne hoped to dupli-cate the effort at Ohio State’sScarlet course.

In high school golf, it’s allabout peaking at the right time.

“I think the last couple ofweeks of the regular season andcertainly the sectional and dis-tricts was some of the best golfwe played,” Bohne said. “Theydon’t hand out any awards in Au-gust.”

In 26years of coaching,Bohnehas been to the state tournament16 times now. That’s three indi-viduals and 13 teams.

“Funny thing is, you remem-ber the ones that were close,”Bohne said. “They still bug me.”

This year’s squad was led bysenior Andrew Benza, a first-team Greater Catholic League-South selection.

“He tied for medal in the sec-tional and was tied for second inthe district,” Bohne said.

Just behind Benza has beenfellow senior Matthew Wetherilland another senior Mason Eck-ley.

“Those two kids (Benza andWetherill) have been our anchorsall year,” Bohne said. “We’ve hadother guys play well. Mason Eck-ley is our most experienced. Hewas at state two years ago withthat team.”

As Eckley can attest to, theJack Nicklaus-designed coursecan be a bear. Along with bunk-ers, crooks, crannies and creeks,Mother Nature also comes intoplay.

“It plays different, accordingto the weather conditions,”Bohne said. “It’s hard to beginwith. You’ve got to have the idealday. They put the pins in toughspots. You have to put it center ofthe green most of the time.”

With two left-handers on theteam,EvanProbst andQuinnSul-livan, Bohne had hoped to solveany angle by weather or bycourse design.

At the end of day one Oct. 19,Moeller was fourth. SeniorWeth-erill shot 79, sophomore Sullivanhad an 80, senior Benza 81, andsenior Probst 82. However, sen-ior Eckley faltered with a 92.

Oct. 20 didn’t go any better forthe Crusaders with some windand light rain. Their combinedscore was 335, compared to 322on day one. In the end, Bohne’sbunch finished seventh.

Bohne figured the favorites

going in to be Dublin Jerome, thedefending champ, Dublin Coff-man, New Albany and the localMason Comets.

He was correct on three ofthose as Jerome won the titleagain, with Coffman third andNew Albany fourth.

Many good schools don’t evenmake it. St. Xavier wasn’t in, norwas Cleveland St. Ignatius.Again, it’s when schools peak, ac-cording to Bohne.

“The two best teams this yearthat won probably 90 percent ofthe tournaments we played inwereUpper Arlington and Picke-rington North and neither one ofthemmade it,” he said.

He has seen players go bothways over the years, but nevertires of the experience in Colum-bus.

“It never gets old for me,”Bohne said.

Denying voting rightsleads us backward

While I applaudMiss Wisn-er’s column (“Would StudentsPass the Vote Test?”) for itscreative idea, I am appalledthat she glossed over the factthat Republicans are movingto prohibit college students tovote “because they are too lib-eral.”

Taking the vote away fromthose with whom we disagreeis not only undemocratic, butun-American as well. Yet yourfocus is on your remarkablyunenlightened Democraticfriends.

Perhaps the Republicanideal would be return us to1776 when only white, male,land or property owners of acertainagecouldvote.TheRe-publican campaign certainlyappears to favor that demo-graphic today, and so that pre-sumably would be what Re-publicans think of as “worthyvoters.”

Miss Wisner, the slipperyslope of denying the vote tothosewithwhomyoudisagree,ormaynot vote for your party,heads us in one direction:backwards to a less enlight-enedtimeandwillnegatevalu-ableCivilRights victorieswonwith the blood, toil and tears oftrue patriots.

It is your kind of thinkingthatwill havemevoting for Is-sue 2. The less political partiesdecide about voting the better.

As we approach the finalweeks of this election, and as thedecibel level of the presidentialcampaign continues to rise,thoughtful voters simply want toknow: what is each candidatelikely to do over the next fouryears if elected?

I submit that the best way topredict future conduct is to lookat what each man has actuallydone in the past. So let’s com-pare.

President Obama rescued theauto industry which, incidental-ly, supports 848,000 Ohio jobs.Gov. Romney proposed bank-ruptcy for the American auto-makers, knowing full well thatthere was insufficient privatecapital to save them thereafter.

President Obama prevented 5million foreclosures and thehousing market is now comingback strong. Gov. Romney pro-posed letting the housing mar-ket “bottom out” even, appar-ently, if it put 5 million familieson the streets.

PresidentObama hasreduced un-employmentrates to under 8percent nation-ally. Ohio is at7.2 percent.When Romneywas governorof Massachu-setts, that statewas 47th in the

nation in job creation.President Obama reduced

middle-class taxes by an aver-age of $3,600. Gov. Romneyproposes a tax plan that guaran-tees cuts for the wealthiestamong us, yet increases taxes onthe middle- class as a matter ofmathematical certainty.

President Obama promotedand signed the Lilly LedbetterAct, assuring women equal payfor equal work. Even at thedebate on Oct. 16, Gov. Romneydeclined support for that Act,and spoke instead of “binders

full of women.”President Obama has guaran-

teed that children with pre-existing conditions cannot bedenied insurance coverage, thataccess to preventive care isexpanded, that the “doughnuthole” is closed for seniors, andthat millions who were previ-ously uninsured will now havecoverage. Governor Romneyhas become the first person inthe history of this country to runfor president on the assertionthat ---unless a particular law isrepealed-- too many people willhave health insurance.

President Obama has broughttwice as many trade casesagainst China as his predeces-sor, all successful. Gov. Romneyhas now turned a deaf ear to thepleas for help from170 Amer-ican employees of Bain-con-trolled Sensata Technologies inFreeport IL. Their jobs will betransferred to China Nov. 5 – theday before the election – just tomake that profitable company

marginally more profitable.President Obama has doubled

Pell grants. As governor, Rom-ney slashed his state budget tothe point that teachers were laidoff and class sizes increased.Then Romney came to Ohio and,on Issue 2 , advocated (unsuc-cessfully) in favor of the statutethat would deprive teachers ofthe right to negotiate for, amongmany other things, smaller classsizes.

President Obama took outBin Laden. Gov. Romney op-posed “moving heaven andearth” to bring to justice thatmurderer of more than 3000Americans.

The bottom line? If you wantto know what each candidatewill do in the future, look atwhat each has done in the past.

Decide on that basis.

“Yes I have, and yes I shall.My decision was made years agoto dump the socialist poseurpresident!”

J.G.

“Yes, I have watched them. Ihave been watching the conductof the president and vice presi-dent since they were installed intheir offices in2009, so I amquiteaware of why I feel the way I doabout them.

“My mind was made up longago and everything I've seen andheard in the last few months be-cause of the campaign merelyreinforces my views, and thus,the debates will only affirm myopinion.

“Frankly, it surprises me thatanyone who has not been in a co-ma for four years could not havemade up their mind already.”

Bill B.

“I am watching the debates,

more out of curiosity than any-thing else. I already voted forRomney, basically because he atleast has an outside chance ofgetting us out of this mess oureconomy is in. It is in a hole and itis pretty clear that Obama willjust keep digging, with never-ending spending and more andmore debt.”

T.H.

“I watched the first two, andtheywere certainly eye openers!

“Romney was articulate andinformed with the presence tomake an impressive president,something I haven't seen por-trayed until now.

“Joe Biden looked like a luna-tic, laughing at questions aboutIran, Lebanon and a host of othervery serious topics. I'm guessingthat the Jewish population, bothhere and in Israel, don't find anyof it funny. They're under con-stant threat, andmost likely nev-er go to bed at peace. And thisman is one step frombeing presi-dent in a crisis?

“Hewasrude, condescending,and should be ashamed of him-self. He wasn't even polite to themoderator, shaking his finger ather and shouting, and interrupt-ing to the point that she lost con-trol, not to mention making itvery difficult to listen to whatPaul Ryan had to say. It lookedlike a smoke screen to me.

“What was sad was the factthat I watched with the intentionof becomingmore informed, andI was assaulted with a presidentwhoseemedtocare lessaboutbe-ing there and listening to the an-swers rather than repeating thesame non-relative statementsover and over. Maybe his tele-prompter was missing!”

J.K.

“Yes, Iwatched the first two. Iwill not watch the rest. I don'tneed too. My decision has beenmade for quite some timeand thedebates will not affect my deci-sion. Anyone that is still indeci-sive about how they will votehasn't been paying attention.”

J.S.K.

“I watched the first presiden-tial debate, and I may watch thesecond. Itwon't affecthowIvote.I just watch in incredulous fasci-nation asMitt Romney tries to liehis way to the presidency andpresent a tax plan that is mathe-matically impossible (althoughmaybe using some of the newCayman Island math it couldwork).

“Also, I enjoy watching himplay a sincerely empathetic per-son, especially since if he getselectedhispolicieswillhelpdeci-mate the poor, the elderly, veter-ans, students along with teach-ers, police and firemen.

“It is sort of like watching thedevil dress up in a Christian em-pathy costume for Halloween.Entertaining, interesting, yet atthe core, manipulative and evil.”

I.P.

“I've watchedmost of the pre-vious two debates, but eventhoughmymind is alreadymadeup I plan to watch the remainingdebates.

R.V.

“I have watched both presi-dential debates and the vicepresidential debate. I can't imag-ine not watching them. I'm a po-litical junkie so my interest isvery high.

“I think the candidates haverevealed their plans, strengthsand weakness on camera. How-ever, I knewwho Iwould vote forbefore the campaigns even start-ed so the debates have not affect-ed me at all."

E.E.C.

“I watch all the debates. Can’tsay they have any impact on myvote. I have made my decision along time ago, and nothing haschanged mymind.

CH@TROOM

NEXT QUESTIONWhat is the scariest movie youever saw or scariest book youever read? What made it soscary?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via e-mail. Send youranswers [email protected] withChatroom in the subject line.

My ballot arrived yesterday.This is because we may be out oftown on Election day. I want tobe sure to vote against as manycorrupt politicians and as I can.

Sadly, years ago when I start-ed voting, my policy was tochoose the one at the top of theballot that I thought was the bestchoice. I then voted for the sena-tor or representative of theopposing party in the hope ofsome semblance of balance. Itnow seems that there is no hopeof any balance. We are now anation divided by partisan poli-tics.

Both the Dumbocrats andRepugnicants are so bought byspecial interests that any idea of“One Nation under God, indivis-ible with liberty and justice for

all” is totallyunthinkable.Both partiesare too busybuying thevotes of theirfavored constit-uencies to keeptheir privilegedelective seatsthat any bal-ance or reasonis secondary to

a complete lack of ethics.During my teaching career I

sometimes taught ethics. One ofthe most interesting sessions Ihad in every term was the dis-cussion of the value of our per-sonal ethics. The discussionalways started with the questionof what it would take to “buy”

you.The soul searching began as

students valued themselvesvery highly. When unfortunateconditions were introduced intothe discussion, values becamequestionable. For instance, ifyour child was starving, wouldyou steal from the grocerystore?

Then the issue of living in arepressive state and you weretold to kill an innocent person ora close member of your familywould be executed. What wouldyou do? Unfortunately theseissues are common to both re-cent and ancient history.

Human nature hasn’tchanged. Political greed makesthe answer simpler. A vote is theprice one now pays for the mu-

tual favors from a politician.The public pays the ever in-creasing price. As we can see inthe riots in Europe, the price isvery high.

Even worse, the workingclass becomes the victims ofthose who claimed to promotetheir interests. The upper mid-dle class and the rich have theoption of leaving. This causes aserious drop in job creation.

In the end, huge inflation andpoverty for the masses is theusual result. The masses arethrown into virtual slaverywhere the only survival is tomaintain the government thatoppresses them. For nearbyexamples, see Cuba, Venezuelaand Bolivia. The only escape is abloody and unequal revolt

against a well armed dictator-ship.

My answer to this problem isthat Congress must have limitedterms and their salaries andbenefits should be the same asthe national average. Retire-ment benefits should be elim-inated. After all, they have cho-sen to represent the people. It issupposed to be an honor.

I would further add a stip-ulation that when they run adeficit a lottery is held and if thedeficit is 3 percent, then 3 per-cent of the Congress is firedwithout any benefits. This wouldcreate a Congress that has re-sponsibility to the people.

Congress should have its terms limited

AUTHENTIC MEDITERRANEAN & TURKISH CUISINE

The grandkids this yearare excited about Hallow-een. Luke is going to bePac Man, Will is a specialforces soldier, Jack is a

storm-trooper andEva is herfavoritebird, a bluemacaw.Little Em-erson, 3months,hasn’t “de-cided” whatshe’ll bebut I’m

sure Mom Courtney willdress her for the occasion.

I’ve been experiment-ing with different kinds ofpopcorn balls and amsharing my favorites,along with other fun reci-pes for Halloween.

My favoritedo-ahead crunchyvanillamarshmallowpopcorn balls

Use a natural popcornor one that just containssalt. Out of all my recipes,these are the favorite withboth the kids and adults.They taste like the kind ofgourmet popcorn balls youbuy at the mall. Crunchierthan the recipe for Jell-Opopcorn balls, which is onmy blog, popcorn balls aregood keepers for at least aweek. If you like add somechopped salted nuts, can-dies, etc., do so beforepouring on the coating.

Bring to a boil overmedium heat and stir untilmarshmallows melt:3⁄4 cup light corn syrup1⁄4 cup butter2 teaspoons vanilla22⁄3 cups confectioners’sugar

1 cupmini marshmallowsOrange food coloring(optional)

Set aside:

20 cups popped corn placedin sprayed bowl (I usedthree bags microwavesalted popcorn)

Pour liquid over pop-corn, quickly coatingpopcorn. Spray hands.Form into balls. Storecovered at room temper-ature.

Tips from Rita’s kitch-en

When making anythingthat has a sticky coating,spray everything: thespatula, the bowl, yourhands.

Homemade microwavepopcorn: Put 1⁄4 cup pop-corn in a brown paper bag.Fold top over a few timesand secure. Place foldedside up for 2 to 3 minutesor until there is 5 secondsbetween pops.

Remove unpoppedkernels before makingtreats: Put popped corninto colander and un-popped kernels will sink tothe bottom. That way noone will break a tooth, orworse, by biting intosomething with a hardkernel.

Meat face cheeseball

For the adult party!

Favorite cheese ball recipe,enough to fill mask (checkout my video onmy blogfor a good one)

1 skeleton-like Halloweenface mask

1pound very thinly slicedprosciutto or other delimeat, cut into small pieces

2 slices pimento-stuffedgreen olives

Line mask with plasticwrap. Layer lunch meat allaround. Press cheese ballmixture into mold andmake sure you press firm-ly so that you fill the mold.Refrigerate until firm.Unmold and remove wrap.Place olives in for eyes.Serve with crudités orcrackers.

Easy black catcookies

The kids will have funmaking these. Have themsticking out of a hollowedout pumpkin.

l cup creamy peanut butter1⁄3 cup water2 eggsl box chocolate cakemixPopsicle sticksSugarCandy corn, red hots

Preheat oven to 350degrees. Beat togetherpeanut butter, water andeggs. Add cake mix andblend. Form into l1⁄2-inchballs and place on cookiesheet. Push in a Popsicle

stick. Flatten with bottomof glass dipped in sugar.Pinch two “ears” at top ofcookie. Press fork intodough to form whiskers oneither side of nose. Bakel0-l2 minutes. Removefrom oven and immedi-ately add candy corn eyesand red-hot nose. Makesabout 2-3 dozen.

hot rolls for Linda J., aNorthern Kentucky read-er. “My lunch in the 1960swhen I went there wasusually a hot roll and but-ter. I’ve never tasted an-other hot roll like theirs. Itwas big, round and justthick enough to slice inhalf and butter both sides.It wasn’t like a biscuit, it

had some texture to it.”Iron Horse bread pud-

Nancy, from Finneytown,says the bread pudding “isthe absolute best” and she

would also like to makeCathy’s tomato pie fromOtto’s. “Truly divine.”

The nation’s housingslump left many homebuilders and developers indire financial straits. As aresult, many homeownersfailed to get things theywere promised in theirsubdivisions. That failureeven extends to the streetsin some areas.

Deb Heimmoved intothe Monte Vista subdivi-sion in Green Townshipeight years ago. She has alandominium in which thehomeowners associationtakes care of the groundsoutside her house. “Wepay a monthly fee thatcovers all the mowing,snow removal, lawn care,maintenance, that type ofthing,” Heim said.

While gardening iscovered by a homeownersassociation in a landomini-um, snow removal usuallyis not. That’s normallydone by the city or town-ship. But in this subdivi-sion the roads were notable to be built accordingto code, so they could notbe dedicated and takenover by the township.

“When Ameritek builthere, the road that cameup the hill, it’s not wideenough and the pitch iswrong so it has to be a

privatedrive,”Heim said.

In addi-tion, duringthe down-turn in theeconomy,the devel-oper soldthe projectto another

company before doing thefinal street paving. Thenew company has yet toput on the final coating.There are nine vacant lotsin the subdivision and thenew developer is promis-ing once they are all soldhe’ll have the money topave the streets.

Since this is a privatestreet, the developer wasnot required to post abond, so there’s no moneythe homeowners can goafter in order to pave theroads themselves. Heimsaid that’s led to a de-crease in the home valuesthere.

“I know of a family thatwould like to move andthey don’t even put it upfor sale because theyknow until the roads arefixed it’s going to betough,” Heim said.

At this point there are

several patches on thestreets, along with otherareas in dire need ofpatching.

“The homeownersassociation has had tocome through every yearand make patchwork onthe roads just so they canstay passable,” Heim said.

The cost of puttingdown the final coat ofpaving is pegged ataround $50,000. The home-owners association is nowtalking about a specialassessment to see if theycan raise the moneyamong themselves to payfor the final paving.

Although this is cer-tainly not the way it’ssupposed to be in a sub-division, the developertells me such privateroads are not unusualthese days. So you need tobe careful. If you’re in themarket for a home, checkthe roads to make sureyou know whether or notthey are public or private.
