She said she stumbled uponthe band about eight years ago

while conducting a library pro-gram at Roberts Paideia Acad-emy in Price Hill.

She heard Celtic folk musiccoming from one of the class-rooms, so she said she poppedher head in and met Doug Sa-wan and Ann Myers, the twofounding members of thegroup.

“I invited them to comeplayat the library,”Gallonsaid. “Wehad never really done concertsbefore.”

Colleen O’Brien said whenshe was younger she neverfully believed her family andteachers when they told her

she had artistictalent.

Now she’srealizing maybethey were right.

The SetonHigh Schoolsenior art stu-dentwas recent-ly named a GoldKey winner in

the regional Scholastic ArtAwards competition.

“I thought I wasn’t going towin a Gold Key because theyare very strict with what theywant,” said O’Brien, a Cov-edale resident.

“You never know what thejudges are looking for in anartist.”

Each year hundreds of stu-dents from Southwest Ohioand Northern Kentucky sub-mit works to the regionalScholastic Art competition.Pieces selected as regionalGold Key winners move on tocompete at the national levelin New York City. Nationalmedal winners are scheduledto be announced March 15.

O’Brien, who has enrolledin art classes at Seton sinceher freshman year and is nowin Advanced Placement art,said this marks her third GoldKey award.

She received two Gold Keyawards for works she submit-ted her sophomore year, butshe said none of the pieces shesubmitted last year were rec-ognized.

“I told myself the Gold Keythis year made up for lastyear,” she joked.

The painting that earnedher the honor this year is aself-portrait in acrylic paint

she created this past summeras part of an AP art project,she said.

Done in an impressionismstyle, O’Brien said it’s a paint-ing of her face reflected in abroken mirror.

“I like being able to be ex-pressive in what I do,” shesaid. “It offers a differentviewpoint.”

Seton art teacher MargieMetz said O’Brien deservesthe Gold Key award.

“She has always been ahard-working art student witha great deal of talent,” Metzsaid.

O’Brien said she’s enjoyeddrawing and painting sinceshe was in grade school, butshedidn’t think shewas talent-

ed or begin taking it seriouslyuntil shewasa freshmanat Se-ton.

“My parents always said Iwas artistic, but Iwas hesitantto believe that,” she said. “I’vecome a long way since then.I’vebeen inAPart thepast twoyears, and it’s not an easyclass.”

She said artwill always be apart of her life. She plans to at-tend the University of Cincin-nati to study anthropology orarcheology, and she’s interest-ed in the art of the ancientEgyptians and Greeks.

“I’vewanted to be an arche-ologist since I was in the fifth-grade,” O’Brien said.

If she doesn’t land a job inthe archeology field after col-

lege, she said her backup planis to work in art conservationor restoration.

Buses stop in front of TaylorHighSchooleveryweekday,buta bus that pulled up in front ofthe school Monday, Feb. 11,looked a little out of place.

After the yellow school bus-es had dropped off students, avery large, red tour bus parkedalong Harrison Avenue in frontof the high school.

C-SPAN and Time WarnerCable visited the school andgave students an opportunity totour a C-SPAN digital, multime-dia bus.

“I thought it was great,” saidTaylor senior Tyler Martini. “Itwas definitely very interestingto see all the resources C-SPANhas.”

The video archives the sta-tionmaintains are a helpful toolfor anyone interested in gov-ernment and students who areworking on government re-ports, he said.

Crews from C-SPAN, the Ca-ble-Satellite Public Affairs Net-work, first met Taylor studentslast year when a group of Ad-vanced Placement history andgovernment students traveledtoDesMoines for the IowaCau-cuses.

“Wemet someof the crewaf-ter a Mitt Romney rally,” saidTaylor AP government teacherMichael Voynovich.

“They invited us onto theircampaign bus so the studentscouldexperience theeducation-al resources C-SPAN offers.”

riencesourAdvancedPlace-ment students had on thecampaign bus in DesMoines, and touring theirheadquarters in Washing-ton,D.C.,wecouldn’t behap-pier that they chose to cometo Taylor High School andshare their resources withour entire student body.”

Mandy Bowen, whoteaches AP government atTaylor, said C-SPANstoppedby the school while in townfilming a segment at Wil-liamHenryHarrison’s tombin North Bend for its serieson the First Ladies of Ohio.

Following a presentationto the entire student body,she saidC-SPANlet studentson the bus for a hands-ontour of the multimedia dem-onstration center.

“Some students also ap-peared on C-SPAN’s morn-ing show, ‘The WashingtonJournal,’” she said. “Ten stu-dents were able to ask ques-tions of the show’s host.”

Martini was one of thestudents who appeared onthe show, and he said he en-joyed his 15 minutes offame.

“Being able to appear onnational television was agreat experience,” he said.“I have family members

who liveoutof stateand theywere able to see me. It wasvery cool.”

Voynovich said the visitwas a great way for the en-tire school to experiencewhat the students who trav-eled to Washington, D.C.,and Iowa were able to see,and it was also a neat oppor-tunity to showcase TaylorHigh School.

“They were really im-pressed with our students,”he said.

“We have a great ongoingrelationship with C-SPANandwe’re really looking for-ward to continuing it.”

“We like toplayCeltic, folksymu-sic,” Sawan said.

“This is the third band I haveplayed in, and the musicians in thisband are by far the best I have everplayed with.”

When they were brainstormingwhat to name the group, he said theywanted an Irish-sounding name. HesaidErdmann lives onFoleyRoad inDelhi Township, and since there aremany streets and roads called Foleythroughout Ireland, the name stuck.

Gallon said shekeeps inviting theband back to play at the library be-cause they have a very family-friendly showand thepeoplewhoat-tend the performances always havea good time.

“They have so many different in-struments that you don’t get to hearevery day,” she said.

“I’m always trying to encouragethe children to try something new.The computers and video games arealways going to be there, but this isan opportunity to do something dif-ferent.”

“This is somethingwedobecausewe love doing it,” Sawan said.“We’re not in this tomake big bucks.We just like getting together andperforming, and we do have a goodshow.”

Taylor Pitchford saidone of her tricky spellingwords is bureaucracy,yet the St. DominicSchool sixth-grader canspell words like peres-troika and tchotcke.

The 12-year-old wonthe school’s spelling beeDec. 20 and will competein the WCPO-TV RegionII Spelling Bee 2013 at 9a.m. Saturday, Feb. 23, atthe National Under-ground Railroad Free-dom Center in hopes toadvance to the 2013ScrippsNationalSpellingBee in Washington D.C.

This isn’t the first yearshe’s won the schoolspelling bee but it is thefirst year shewill partici-pate in the regional com-petition. She won theschool spelling bee infifth grade but wasn’t eli-gible to compete on thenext level.

“The second step afterwinning the school spell-ing bee was to take a testonline,” she said of qual-

ifying for regionals. “Idid not pass it by threewords.”

She said her missedopportunity gave hermo-tivation to try harder, butit wasn’t just missing re-gionals that gave her thedrive to do well.

In fourth grade shecompeted in the schoolcompetition – which in-cluded 50 students from

grades fourth througheighth – and she placedfifth for the school.

“I said to my mom,‘What if I won the schoolspelling bee next year?’”she said.

Her mom Lisa saidthat Taylor came to herwith an idea of how shecould prepare for thenext year’s spelling bee.

“She started studying

the dictionary,” Lisasaid.

Taylor’s former spell-ing teacher Kathi Wan-ger said she wasn’t sur-prised to hear that shehad been studying thedictionary.

“She’s an excellentstudent,” she said. “She’svery driven.”

Taylor said shespends anywhere from

two to three-and-a-halfhours each night study-ing spelling words.

“I get a headache ev-ery night,” she said.

But it isn’t just wordsfound in the dictionary.There are names of nota-ble people and wordsfrom other languages onher spelling list.

“There are wordsfrom 15 different ori-gins,” she said.

When she isn’t study-ing consonants and vow-els, the straight-A stu-dent can be found on the

soccer field with her se-lect team or practicingbasketball with her teamin the St. Dominic gym.

“I just have to planaround those practices,”she said.

In the meantime, shesaid she’s going to cramin as many spellingwords as she can to pre-pare for the regionalcompetition.

“I’m nervous and ex-cited,” she said. “I think Ican do anything I set mymind to and I just have tostay positive.”

Students at Mother ofMercy High School arebringing to life a classiceducational televisioncartoon.

Mercy theater stu-dents are performing“School House Rock” fortheir spring musical.

“School House Rock”wasanEmmyAward-win-ning 1970s Saturdaymorning cartoon seriesthat taught children sub-jects like grammar, histo-ryandmathbyusingclev-er, catchy songs.

“We take grammar tothe next level,” said Mer-cy junior Taylor Maas.“Our show is like a car-toon coming to life. Ourschoolhouse rocks.”

Performances begin at7:30 p.m. Friday, March 1,and Saturday, March 2;and 7 p.m. Sunday, March3. There is also a 2 p.m.matinee show March 3.All performances are inthe theater at the highschool, 3036 Werk Road.

Mercy fine arts teach-er Lisa Bodollo, who di-rects the theater pro-gram, said she re-searched a variety ofgroups who have per-formed “School HouseRock” on the stage andthen put her own spin onthe show.

“We’re doing it com-pletely different thananyone else I’ve seen,”she said.

“Every song has a cho-reographed dance num-ber. I knew this show canbe a big show-stoppingmusical.”

To give the perfor-mance an added dimen-sion, she said the mem-bers ofMercy’s volleyballteam have roles in theshow.

Mercy junior volley-ball player Lauren Dinke-lacker said it’s been funcollaborating with stu-dents in the theater pro-gram and watching themput their talents to use.

“They’ve been reallyhelpful to us, andwe’re allworking together well,”

she said. “I never thoughtI’d be on a stage inmy en-tire life.”

GabbyDiscepoli, a sen-ior who’s performed inseveral shows at Mercy,said the show will appealto audiences of all age lev-els.

“My mom is excited tosee it,” Discepoli said.“She told me she’ll bedancing along in theback.”

Junior Elaine Niehaus-er said she likes how theshow engages the audi-ence.

“This show is in yourface,” she said. “We’redancing in the aisles, soyou will feel like you’repart of the show.”

AmandaHuening, a ju-nior who serves as thestage manager for theproduction, said all thecostumeshavebeenmadeby students, and studentsare also doing all the hairand makeup for the per-formers.

“The cool thing aboutthe technical crew is thatit’s all student-based,” shesaid.

St. Ursula Academy is tak-ing a proactive approach topreventing violence. A certi-fied instructor from the Livethe Green Dot program, AnnBrandon, spoke to students,faculty and staff at St. UrsulaJan.11toeducate themonstrat-egies of violence preventionthat consistently, measurablyreduce power-based personalviolence such as sexual vio-lence, domestic violence, dat-ing violence, stalking, childabuse, elder abuse and bully-ing.

Green Dot is an innovativeprogram designed to engagestudents to be able to respondas proactive bystanders topower-based personal vio-lence. Brandonwas introducedby students Julie Kenning ofMonfort Heights and AshleyPeterson of Anderson Town-ship.

Brandon taught the entirestudent body skills they canuse in responding to variousforms of violence and bullyingso they may be able to over-come personal barriers to in-tervention. To make her point,Ms. Brandon displayed a mapwith red dots signifying inci-dents involving violence. Thechallenge: replace the red dotswith green dots--dots that rep-resent instanceswhenviolencewas prevented.

Brandon’s talk supports thebystander approach, a conceptthatwas introduced to the girlslast year during an Advisorysession. The idea behind theprogram is that violence pre-vention needs to be a socialmovement, led by students. Ul-

timately, Green Dot strives toreduce these types of violenceonanystudentcampusandsur-rounding community bychanging people’s attitudesand behaviors. The more stu-dents/community membersare connected to the issues andproactively intervene whenthey see high risk for violence,the less opportunities perpe-trators will have to victimizeothers. Thus, the programhopes to change society's cul-ture andmakeviolence intoler-able.

St. Ursula students say theywere inspired by themessagesthey heard during the presen-tation.

“St.Ursula students are rolemodels and we are very effec-tive when we believe in some-thingandwork together to takeaction. I think we can reallymake an impact if we all putwhat we learned today into ac-tion,” said St. Ursula sopho-more Elena Helmers-Wegmanof Price Hill.

“This topicreallypertains tous at our age. It was really in-spiring to seehowMs.Brandonworks to fix this too-commonproblem,” said Abby Engel-hardtofDelhiTownship,St.Ur-sula sophomore.

“We should take the infor-mation and bring it with us toparties and events wheresomething could happen,” saidsophomore Carolyn Knollmanof Delhi Township. “We shouldalso do the right thingwhenwesee a potential problemandnotjust beabystanderwhodoesn’tdo anything.”

St. Ursula’s departments ofStudent Life and Guidance co-ordinated this event. GreenDot is part of an innovative re-search study, the first of itskind, funded by the center ofDisease Control and Preven-tion. If you would like more in-formation, visit www.livethe-greendot.com.

PRICE HILL — A trip to the statemeet would have capped off 12years of hard work, but Seton diverMo Carolin wasn’t going to let itmake or break her senior year.

After not qualifying for statewith her 12th-place finished at theDivision I district diving meet Feb.13, the senior is takingpride inwhatshe accomplished over her careerand especially this season.

“… This year I put more effortinto diving than I ever have,” Car-olin said. “Just in the last couplemonths I havemademore improve-ments than I could ever have imag-ined. I’m proud to say I improved alot as a diver.”

What she has accomplished(back-to-back district appear-ances) is even more impressive

considering she both swims anddives for the Saints.

“When I got to high school theywanted me to make a decisionwhether to swim or dive,” she said.“I was like ‘why do I have tomake adecision?’ So I’ve done both. Thisyear I was going to make that deci-sion because I wanted to focus on(diving) andget to state, but I endedup doing both again.”

The senior has been at her bestwhen she approaches a meet with acarefree attitude,much like shedidat the years Southwest Ohio Coach-es’ Classic. Carolin not only set herpersonal best 11-dive score, but shealso set a new school record.

“I went into it thinking it was nobig deal and I want to have fun,”Carolin said. “It’s one of thosemeets where we dive with Elderand Mercy and they are like team-mates and we just have fun. It was

my best meet by far, I dove lightsout.”

Speaking of Mercy, one of thegreatest things that has come ofCarolin’s diving career is thefriendship and bond that has beencreated with Mercy senior TaylorHayes.

The twohavebeendiving togeth-er since they were 6 years old andperhaps it was fitting that in theirsenior seasons Hayes and Carolinfinished first and second, respec-tively, at the Girls Greater Cincin-nati League Championships and11th and 12th, respectively, at thedistrict meet.

“It’s not so much a memory, butwhat I’ve gotten from the past fouryears is what has formed betweenme and (Taylor),” Carolin said.“From all of this we’ve had somanymemories and now she is one of mybest friends.”

Seton’s Mo Carolin dives at the Division I district meet Feb. 13. The senior finished 12th out of 24 divers. THANKS TO CARRIE

SETON DIVER LOOKSBACK ON CAREER

By Tom [email protected]

PRICEHILL—A 4-3 loss to Springboroin the first round of the Southwest OhioHighSchoolHockeyLeague tournamentsummarized the Elder Panthers’ hockeyseason.

Springborowent on towin the tourna-ment after beating St. Xavier in the fi-nals, and for the Panthers it was just an-other close call.

“That was a signature win if you getit,” head coach Joe Del Prince said. “…Youhave towin that game toget respect;not just be close.”

Unfortunately the Panthers’ seasonended on a sour note following a 7-0 lossto Worthington Kilbourne in the firstround of the district tournament Feb.15.

The Panthers finished the season 10-20-4 – tying the school record for mostwins in a season – but suffered ninelosses by two goals or less, including sixone-goal losses.

“I think in general we’ve had a verygood year,” Del Prince said. “We havebeen very competitive in almost everygame.…The kids haveworked hard andhave got awhole lot better fromNovem-ber tonow.…Ifyou improveall the time,you are a success.”

One of the reasons for the Panthers’success has been the play of goalie NickSpicker. The senior is interested in tak-ing his game to the next level, whichwillmost likely consist of some time at theJunior Hockey League level beforeheading off to college.

“He has been the difference for us,”Del Prince said. “…He’s had some inter-est fromsomeschools and fromsome ju-nior schools. … He wants to give it a try

FINNEYTOWN — Therewas a certain expectationgoing into this season forthe St. Xavier hockeyteam.

That is the reasoncoach Adam Tramontewas pleased, but not sur-prised, by his team’s runto its first Southwest OhioHigh School HockeyLeague tournament final.

“This year is the firstyear we expected to be inthat game,” Tramontesaid. “We had years in thepast where we upset a No.1 team, but we couldn’t doit two games in a row. Weplayed to our strength andmanaged to get in the

game.”The Bombers came out

on the short end of a 3-1loss to Springboro in thetournament final, but theycan take solace in the factthat for the first time inprogram history they are

back-to-back SWOHSHLSouth Division champi-ons.

“It’s good,” Tramontesaid. “Obviously I’m veryhappy consideringwe hadnever won it before andnow to get two in a row is

great for our seniors andit’s agreatwayfor themtogo out.”

After a 22-9-2 regularseason the Bombers werepoised for a postseasonrun, but Upper Arlingtonput a stop to the St. X mo-mentum by knocking offtheninth-seededBombers6-0 in the second round ofthe district tournamentFeb. 16.

It was an unexpectedresult for Tramonte, whobelieved if his squadplayed their game theywould advance despitefacing the higher-seededGolden Bears.

Despite the early post-season exit, one of the rea-sonsfor theBombers’ suc-cess this season was the

play between the pipes ofsenior Matt Thornley andfreshmen Zach Thomas.Tramonte split time be-tween the two for most ofthe season until Thomaswent down with an injury,but will now serve as thebackup to Thornley dur-ing the postseason.

“Thornley has been incharge for the lastmonth,” Tramonte said. “Iwas getting to the pointwhere I was going to pickone and I was going withthe senior. With (Thomas)gettinghurt it just spedupthe process.”

Offensively it has beenthe Mitch Blank show. Heset a new team recordwith 66 points , shatteringthe record of 47.

Price ‘holey’ streetIt seems if sometimes what

goesaroundcomesaround.Sobeit thecasewithGlenwayAvenue.

Years ago the nuns, makingtheir home at was then CedarGrove, called the street “PlankRoad” because there were somany ruts and holes in the streetthey had to place wooden planksover them in order tomove theirbuggies.

Today the street has so manyholes in it that they have to placesteel plates to cover them, may-be it should be named “SteelPlate Avenue” or better yet“Washbord Street.”

It appears as usual it is PriceHill and their is no need to hurryand get the work done.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

The American Dream is anidea that embodies the opti-mism rooted in the Americanpsychic. Sadly, when dis-cussing today’s economy andrandom violence, too many nolonger believe in the Amer-ican Dream. The question athand is, “How did we accu-mulate so much debt, andhow did we become so uncivi-lized?”

Urban planners and sociol-ogists, who embrace a designphilosophy called New Ur-

banism, pro-pose an an-swer, as doc-umented inthe book“SuburbanNation: TheRise ofSprawl andthe Declineof the Amer-ican Dream.”

It explainshow our post war zoninglaws, designed to move traf-fic, prevents development tobe configured in a fiscallyconservative, traditional-neighborhood manner. Thatsuburban sprawl develop-ment, conceived during thetime of cheap energy, hasmade us too auto dependent,and is now unsustainable.

Sprawl’s expensive,spread-out auto infrastruc-ture created the expensivemulti-car-family, and forcesthe elderly to live in expen-sive retirement homes uponlosing their ability to drive.And, because it groupshouses by value, it has isolat-ed the poor, which inadver-tently removed the provenneighbors-helping-neighborssocial safety net; now re-placed with an array of ex-pensive, Robin Hood stylegovernment programs. Taxedto the limit we glorify casi-nos, hoping to gamble ourway to prosperity.

Sprawl suburbs are de-signed to make automobileshappy; so they are not kidfriendly. Activities are often-times beyond an adolescent’sindependent reach. Mostcannot walk or ride theirbikes to school, the store, or

to a pickup baseball game.Learning how to become aresponsible adult is nevereasy. But it’s especially chal-lenging when you’re ware-housed in front of a TV, andyour only opportunity tomake choices, exercise judg-ment, and be independent, isdeciding what channel towatch.

Sprawl suburbs breed teenisolation and boredom, acause for the sharp increasein teen suicide, and are thereason why car crashes arethe No. 1 killer of Americanteenagers.

Perhaps most tragically,when evaluating the SandyHook type assailants we see atrend. They never quite fit in– a heartbreak that is anothercasualty of sprawl. Sociolo-gists conclude that childrengrowing up in income-segre-gated communities are lesslikely to develop a sense ofempathy for people fromother walks of life, and are illprepared to live in a diversesociety; that their very unre-ality is an environment inwhich thrill-seeking youngadults are more likely tomake the leap to fantasy.

Where we aspire to livewill always be a personalexpression of the AmericanDream idea. Now, a growingnumber are suggesting thatthe traditional neighborhooddesign alternative shouldagain be an option of choicewhen developing new com-munities; and that our au-thentic traditional neigh-borhoods are a resource wait-ing to be re-discovered, re-invented, and reinvested in,in a way that preserves andenhances the quality of lifethey offer.

In my opinion, discussingthese possibilities, instead ofcasino gambling and guncontrol, as a means to keep-ing the American Dreamalive, would be a far betteruse of our time.

Keeping theAmericanDream alive

Jim GraweCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

The governor’s biennialstate revenue budget hasbeen released. The two-year

$63.3 billionbudget en-compassespolicy propos-als that willaffect thelives of everyOhioan, andthus requiresappropriatetime for con-sideration byboth houses of

the General Assembly.As the budget process

plays out I will work to keepall of you informed ofchanges as they occur. Fornow, I would like to touch onone subject that I’m sure youwill be reading quite a bitabout: Medicaid expansion.

Last summer, the UnitedStates Supreme Court ruledthat Obamacare is constitu-tional because of the congres-sional power to tax. However,the decision on a key compo-nent of the law, Medicaidexpansion, is left up to thestates. Medicaid expansion inOhio, currently contained inthe Governor’s budget sub-mission, will be a major pointof debate in the House.

To incentivize the states to

expand Medicaid, the federalgovernment has promised topick up all the costs for newlyeligible individuals for thefirst three years, and 90 per-cent of the costs in the fourthyear. Cost sharing after yearfour is unknown. In Gov. Kas-ich’s proposed budget, Ohiowill accept federal dollars toexpand Medicaid coveragefor close to 275,000 Ohioanswho are currently uninsured.

Those families earning upto 138 percent of the federalpoverty level – $31,802 a yearfor a family of four – wouldnow qualify for Medicaidhealth care coverage.

Advocates for the Medi-caid expansion point out thatthe state will save $235 mil-lion over the next two yearsand will free up about $100million in local funds formental health and addictionservices. Further insurancepremium increases may bereduced for everyone be-cause less people will be go-ing to the emergency roomfor non-emergency relatedsituations. However, currentMedicaid law does not re-quire that Medicaid recipi-ents use the least expensiveadequate care facilities asmany private insurance pol-icies require.

Critics have pointed outthat Medicaid expansion willfurther expand the currentwelfare state that is alreadyseen as spiraling out of con-trol. In addition, to approveMedicaid expansion willgrow an inefficient and veryexpensive system. Finally, ifas a result of expansion, ad-ditional people under 90 per-cent of the poverty level“sign up” for Medicaid, thestate will be required to pay36 percent of the cost.

Currently, I am stillweighing the pros and consof expansion. I have left mycontact information belowand would like to hear yourfeedback on the Medicaidissue.

Finally, I will be writingadditional columns on otherissues included in the statebudget. If there is an issuethat you would like to ad-dress, please let me know.

Cincinnati lost a piece of itsheart last month.

Avtar Gill died quietly inthe motelroom he hascalled homefor manyyears. About50 people at-tended a beau-tiful memorialtoday at Find-lay Market inhis honor, andimages takenof him

through the years are surfac-ing all over the internet in-cluding a new Facebook pagewith hundreds of likes al-ready.

In the final years of hislife, he gave smiles to count-less faces. His impacttouched thousands. Avtar, incase you haven’t heard, is the“Cincinnati Hat Man.” If youhave attended any large pub-lic gatherings downtown, youhave more than likely seenhim. Dressed in casual slacksand mostly colorful t-shirts,he was always adorned withhis signature ball cap at-tached to a piece of posterboard decorated in brightcolors with positive mes-sages. Among them – “Moth-er’s Day: Be proud to be amother.” “Rejoice. WorldChoir Games comes to town.Wow!”

I remember seeing him atevents. I remember upliftingbillboards. He was hard tomiss. I never said hello. Inever asked him his name orwhy he made it his life mis-sion to hand out joy. I nevertold him he brightened myday. I never said thank you.Sadly, only now in the wake ofhis absence, am I learningabout the man whose mes-sages of hope and inspirationtouched our hearts in mean-ingful ways.

How many of you can saythe same? Why is it that sooften we wait until a person isgone to memorialize theirgifts? Please don’t get mewrong. I think it is wonderful

to see and read the outpouringof emotions of people whowere touched by Avtar. I haveno doubt that Avtar is smilinglooking down upon this cityright now. I only wish that hecould have seen this outpour-ing of admiration while hewas still with us.

In our busy lives, it is soeasy for us to go about ourroutines without taking thetime to let others know oftheir value. Or we put offsaying things thinking we cansay them later. It isn’t becausewe don’t care or that othersdon’t matter. For whateverreason, we just don’t say whatis in our heart.

Life can be short. None of

us know what is in store forour tomorrow. Caring andbeing there for each other iswhat makes our time here sospecial. We need to practicevoicing our appreciation.

There is a lesson to belearned from the passing ofAvtar Gill ... aka the “Cincin-nati Hat Man.”

In his honor and memory,let’s rejoice in life and in eachother. Today, tomorrow, nextweek and all year, make apoint to let others know theyare important. Let’s celebrateand cherish gifts in the hereand now.

Yesterday, grand-daughter Eva and Ishared a simple countrypleasure. We went for awalk downmy path that

leads to theEast ForkRiver. Shewanted tosee if thewatercresswas grow-ing in ourlittlespring-fedpool alongthe pathand if the

“Easter grass” (wildonions) was up yet. Well,no watercress for oursalad, but the wild onionswere growing in littlepatches along an oldstone wall.

There was a bonus,too: Wild yellow aconitewas poking through lay-ers of fallen leaves andsnow all over the hill.What a surprise that was.I think this is the earliestyet that I’ve seen both ofthese harbingers ofspring. The aconite’sneon yellow petals lookdelicate but are sturdyenough to survive undera layer of snow. The flow-

ers have a history, too.Our friend Ike Leaf, of

blessed memory, tossedthe first handful of seedson top of the hill yearsago. “When they dropseeds, they’ll tumbledown the hill and eventu-ally cover it,” he said.And they have. Check outmy blog for a photo ofEva picking wild aconite.

Pesto stuffed porktenderloin

A recipe that garnersfans every time it’sserved. My friend, MaryLee Olinger, an AndersonTownship reader, firstshared this with me awhile back. She had eat-en this stuffed pork atthe home of her friend,Mary AnnMyers. Mylatest version includesfresh parsley and Roma-no cheese. Make sure youuse pork tenderloin andnot the loin, because theloin won’t cook in thetime given. Check a fewminutes before it’s done –I roast my pork to 145 orso (see my tip below).Use ready-made pesto ormy homemade. Eventhough Easter is weeksaway, you might want to

save this recipe for East-er dinner, it’s that good.

2 pounds pork tenderloin,trimmed

Ready-made or homemadepesto

Romano cheese, grated (orParmesan)

Pine nutsButcher stringFresh chopped parsley andextra cheese for garnish

Preheat oven to 350degrees. Slice the tender-loin, lengthwise, not quiteall the way through.

Spoon pesto until it fills(and overflows a bit) thecavity. Gently tie roast inthree places to keep ittogether. Place onsprayed baking pan.Sprinkle a good amountof cheese and nuts overroast. Bake until done(145 degrees). In my ovenit takes about 25-30 min-utes; it may take longerin yours. If the pine nutsstart to get too brown,tent meat with foil. Letrest about 10 minutes,tented with foil. After

slicing, sprinkle withparsley and more cheese.This feeds four to fivepeople.

Tip from Rita’skitchen

Nervous about porktemperature? The USDAsays 145 degrees is safe.After resting a fewmin-utes, the temperaturewill rise a few degrees,enough to kill any harm-ful bacteria. The meatwill be juicy and maylook pink.

Rita’s pestoGo to taste on this.

3⁄4 to 1 teaspoon garlic,minced

2 tablespoons pine nuts2 tablespoons softenedbutter

2 cups basil leaves, packed1⁄2 cup Parmesan cheese1⁄4 cup Romano cheese (oruse all Parmesan)

Extra virgin olive oil: startwith 3 tablespoons and gofrom there

With a food proces-sor’s motor running, addgarlic and nuts. Addeverything else and proc-ess until smooth. Store inrefrigerator up to a

week. It may turn a bitdark on the top, butthat’s OK. Some peoplepour a thin layer of oilover the top to preventthis. Store in freezerseveral months, againpouring a thin layer ofoil on top to preventdarkening.

Readers want toknow

Dotting with butter.The dilemma fromMaryann from Erlangerhas is too much butterlanding on top of casse-roles. “When a recipesays to dot with butter, Ialways wind up with toomuch on top,” she says.

Solution: Keep a stickof butter in freezer. Peelwrapper back to desiredamount. Use a vegetablepeeler to shave rightamount from frozenbutter, letting pieces fallonto food in thin curls.

The new CincinnatiChildren’s Hospital Medi-cal Center facility inGreen Township will in-cluding student artwork,featuring 36 postersplaced around the build-ing designed by sopho-more graphic design stu-dents at the College ofMount St. Joseph.

The hospital invitedthe Mount, as well as sev-eral schools in the OakHills Local School Dis-trict including Oak HillsHigh School, BridgetownMiddle School and C.O.Harrison ElementarySchool, to have studentsdesign artwork for thenew facilitywhen it opensthis year.

Mount sophomoregraphic design studentscreated a series of origi-nal posters that feature arecognizable West Sideicon within the design.The “seek-and-find” con-

cept will be used as agame for waiting patientsand theirparents. SomeoftheWest Side connectionshidden within the posterproject include WesternBowl, cornhole and foot-ball.

“Being from the WestSide, I was already awareof that ‘West Side’ thing,”said design student LeesaScudder. “It was interest-ing to see how other stu-dents who weren’t fromthis part of town discov-ered the feel of the westside and what made itstand out.”

“This is an amazing op-portunity for our stu-dents,” said Beth BelknapBrann, associate profes-sor of graphic design atthe Mount. “Sophomoreyear is the first time ourstudentsworkwithdesignprograms on the comput-er. These sophomoreshave jumped in and really

landed on their feet.”Kolar Design and the

nonprofit arts organiza-tion ArtWorks workedwith Mount students dur-ing the fall semester onthe project. Students be-ganwithaconcept, turnedit into a graphic element,and presented them torepresentatives from Ko-lar Design and ArtWorks.Students used the colorpalette that is tied into theCCHMC brand, creatingposters that are upbeat,calming and intriguing.

“This is such a greatcollaboration betweenemergingstudent talent,ahighly regarded hospitalandtopdesignprofession-als in the city,” saidBrann.“Wearehonoredtohave somanyposters cho-sen to be a part of the pro-ject. I’msure therewill belots of smileswhenpeoplesee the significance of theicons.”

To increase its empha-sis on providing servicesto people affected by spi-na bifida, the SpinaBifidaAssociation of Cincinnatiis becoming an indepen-dent organization serving17 counties in Ohio, Indi-ana and Kentucky.

The organization alsohas changed its name tothe Spina Bifida Coalitionof Cincinnati to make itclear that it is no longeraffiliated with the nation-al Spina Bifida Associa-tion.

Aftercarefulconsider-ation, the SpinaBifidaCo-alition of Cincinnatiboard decided to end itsaffiliation because theboard of directors be-lieves the mission of thenational organization isno longer fully alignedwith coalition’s mission.The coalition’s primarymission is to provide ser-

vices to itsclients.Thena-tional organization’s pri-marymission seems to beraisingmoney to fundspi-na bifida research.

“Our main focus willcontinue to be helpingpeople bornwith spina bi-fida lead full, active livesin our region,” said JustinBifro, coalition chair. “Weacknowledge that re-search continues to be vi-tal to lessen the impact ofspina bifida on futuregenerations. Butwe thinkour organization is bestsuited to enhancing thelives of those affected byspina bifida today.

“Our board is con-vinced that this is theright decision for our cli-ents because it will keepour focus on providinghigh-quality services andprograms to them,” hesaid.

Programsandservices

of the coalitionwill not beimpacted. Because thechanges are mostly inter-nal ones, the coalition’sclients, donors and volun-teers might not even no-tice any differences, oth-er than the organization’snew name and logo.

The coalition expectsto maintain a positive re-lationship with the SBA.

“We are sure therewillbe occasions when coop-

eration will benefit bothorganizations and our cli-ents,” said Sonya Dreves,the coalition’s executivedirector. The coalition isencouraging clients tocontinue supporting thenational organization.
