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 the en-tire Taylor Mill staff aretruly honored to be able tohost this historical monu-ment in our community,”City Administrator JillBailey said.

“It is a wonderful wayto honor those who haveand those who continue toserve our military inter-est both at home and over-seas, as well as, bring mil-itary men and women andtheir families, friends,and neighbors together to

demonstrate our over-whelming respect forthose who serve and thosewho have made the ulti-mate sacrifice during thatservice. We anticipatethis event will be a power-ful and moving experi-ence for everyone in ourregion who has the oppor-tunity to be part of its visitto the Taylor Mill commu-nity,” Bailey said.

The Moving Wall, ac-cording towww.movingwall.org, hasbeen touring the countryfor more than 30 years. Itall started in 1982, whenJohn Devitt attended thededication in Washington.He felt “a positive powerof The Wall.” Devittvowed to share that expe-rience with those who didnot have the opportunityto visit Washington.

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

Two structures of TheMoving Wall now travelthe U.S. from Aprilthrough November,

spending about a week ateach site. This is the firsttime the memorial 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 Kentucky issuch 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 thegroup 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.

ERLANGER - LynnMolitor is a yoga instruc-tor on a mission – to helpthose grieving.

“Yoga is healing onmany levels,” Molitor, 54,of Erlanger, said. “It canhelp through the grievingprocess and that’s not al-ways about loss of a lovedone. Sometimes it’s di-vorce, other times loss ofa job or loss due to addic-tion or other diseases.”

Molitor has been a cer-tified yoga instructor for

15 years. For about thelast five she’s been con-centrating her efforts onhelping others deal withgrief through yoga.

A volunteer at theBrighton Recovery Cen-ter for Women in Flor-ence, she offers yoga in-struction to help resi-dents there recoveringfrom addiction. She hasalso led a Yoga and GriefRecovering Workshop atLinnemann FuneralHome in Burlington.

Molitor is looking forother opportunities, spe-cifically a location to of-

fer more workshops us-ing yoga to deal withgrief.

“People need to feelcomfort when they’regrieving,” she said. “Theworkshop I co-conductedat Linnemann involvedyoga and journaling. Wehad a great response.”

Cindy Huff of Peters-burg participated in theyoga and grief workshopat Linnemann. She saidthe experience changedher life.

“It helped me verymuch,” she said. “Lynn isa great yoga instructor

and opened up a lot ofthings I had held inside. Itwas a really wonderfulhealing experience.”

Molitor recognized the“healing power” of yogaover grief when she start-ed doing yoga at 39.

“I had lost my fatherwhen I was 13 years old,”she said. “It was not until Istarted yoga when I was39 that I had an awarenessof my deep grief. I reallyhad never processed orgrieved the loss of my fa-ther. Through yoga I wasable to do that in a healthy,productive way.”

She said she wants tohelp others “get in touchwith what they’re feel-ing.”

“It’s really a neat bond-ing experience – theworkshop,” she said.“Grief is very isolating,but we really go throughsimilar things when weexperience grief. It’sgood to get in touch withour feelings and the work-shop yoga and journalinghelp you do that. Then, weshare. It’s important tonot be ashamed of yourgrief, but to talk about it.There’s not a better way

to deal with pain and loss.It’s something we allneed.”

FLORENCE –

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

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

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

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

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

Neither of her parentshad heart problems.

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

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

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

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

» Unexplained feelings ofnervousness and anxiety

» Tingling in hands andarms

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

sweat These are all on her list –

and the list of the AmericanHeart Association.

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

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

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

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

said.Two weeks later, Lugo

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

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

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

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

FLORENCE – Want tohelp students learn aboutsubstance abuse while us-ing social media for cre-ative contests that alsohelp community organi-zations?

There’s an app for that. The Northern Ken-

tucky Prevention Alli-ance is presenting a newsmartphone app namedPush to help young peoplenavigate the difficultiesof their teen years whileparticipating in commu-nity projects.

The Alliance is a coali-tion of agencies, countyorganizations and gov-ernment entitiesthroughout NorthernKentucky’s eight coun-ties.

“With the rise of her-oin and prescription drugabuse in our region, nowis the time to pull togeth-er and PUSH back,” ac-cording to the organiza-tion’s website,www.impushing.org. The

website complements thefree new app, which willbe available in January.

The group’s chal-lenges and informationwill use the hashtag#push2change.

“We’re inciting teensto embrace and expresspositive values throughsocial media challenges,”according to the website.

Alliance coordinatorBonnie Hedrick said theapp was developed byyoung people and is de-signed to “facilitate theirinvolvement in communi-ty projects, but also pro-vides a way to find help ifthey need it.”

The app will include away to reach a toll-freehelpline, thanks to a part-nership with the Chil-dren’s Home of NorthernKentucky.

“We have foundthrough our surveys that20 percent of youth inNorthern Kentucky areexperiencing stress, de-pression and other adver-sities. The app will be away to have help for that

at their fingertips,” shesaid.

Hedrick said the appengages students by de-veloping challenges that“get them thinking aboutvarious community in-volvement initiativessuch as random acts ofkindness, keeping eachother safe at parties andon the Internet, prevent-ing cyberbullying andother forms of bullying,”she said.

Participants can voteon which entry wins eachchallenge, and winnerscan receive awards orprovide assistance to lo-cal organizations theyhave designated.

“Youth in NorthernKentucky will be posi-tively connected to otheryouth working on pro-jects that make theirworld a better, saferplace,” she said.

The app also includestight safety controls forwhat is and what is not al-lowed, and is designed forstudents between theages of 13 and 19.

Part mechanical, partelectrical and all miracle.

As the nation marksFebruary as HeartMonth, the human heartis the focus of rapidlychanging technology andadvances in proceduresthat can repair and re-store it.

The mechanics in-clude vessels and plumb-ing which allow the heartmuscle to pump oxygen-rich blood through thebody. The electrical sys-tem of the heart controlsthe rhythm and perfor-mance. The miracle is

what keepseveryonealive.

Doctorsat St. Eliza-beth Heartand Vascu-lar Insti-tute canstudy its

structure and functionusing advanced imaging,repair it using sophisti-cated mapping softwareand new devices and re-store the four-chambermuscle to its naturalrhythm to move the bloodwhere it needs to go and

when.Options include:» TAVR. The tran-

scatheter aortic valvecan replace a faulty heartvalve by sending a col-lapsible new valve bycatheter via an artery inthe patient’s leg. TAVRcan be used for patientswho were told they had nooptions because the riskof traditional open-heartsurgery was too high. Pa-tients can go home after48 hours. Dr. Saeb Khou-ry, co-director of theValve Center at St. Eliza-beth Healthcare, said for

as many as 40 percent ofpatients with aortic ste-nosis, traditional surgeryis not an option. “Now, wecan offer them some-thing,” Khoury said.

» Mapping and abla-tion. St. Elizabeth’s elec-trophysiologists can de-termine precisely whereabnormal rhythms startin the heart and performtarget procedures to re-store a steady heartbeat.

» Afib. Heart palpita-tions, a sense that theheart is racing or missinga beat are problems withthe heart’s rhythm. When

the heart beats irregular-ly, it is inefficient. Atrialfibrillation (“Afib”) is themost common arrhyth-mia. Patients report fa-tigue, shortness ofbreath, chest pain or diz-ziness.

As he explained ad-vances in technology, Dr.Mohamad C. Sinno, co-di-rector of St. ElizabethHealthcare Atrial Fibril-lation Program, repeat-edly returned to a singletheme: better results – orin medical terms, betteroutcomes. Patients“shouldn’t live with it; wecan fix it,” Sinno said.

It’s not just young, oth-erwise healthy, patientswho are benefiting.

An 82-year-old patientrecently underwent aseven-hour procedure tocorrect a heart arrhyth-mia. The next morning inthe hospital she told herdoctor she had not feltthat good in 10 years.“Those are the words thatkeep us going,” Sinnosaid.

“It’s never a job, nevera routine … that’s notwhat I signed up for,” saidSinno. “It’s helping peo-ple, and that’s what’s hap-pening.”

Help yourself

While family healthhistory plays a significantrole in heart disease, inva-sive cardiologist Dr. Dar-ryl Dias of St. ElizabethHealthcare has straight-forward advice: Stopsmoking and work withyour doctor to protectyour heart.

Kentucky ranks 47th inthe country for hearthealth – fourth-worst –and Dias wants to reversecourse.

The checklist is simple:» Avoid fast food» Don’t smoke» Exercise regularly» Have regular medi-

cal screenings for hyper-tension and blood sugar

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.

SCHOOLSSCHOOLSACHIEVEMENTS | NEWS | ACTIVITIES | HONORS Cincinnati.com/northernkentucky

COMMUNITYRECORDEREditor: Nancy Daly, [email protected], 578-1059

It was Matthew Tarka’s firstsemester at Xavier Universitywhen he got an email about theETF Global Portfolio Challenge.

As a freshman, Tarka wasn’ttaking any investment or fi-nance classes. He didn’t knowany of the high-level financeprofessors. He was focusing oncompleting his general require-ments, making new friends, andgetting acquainted with a newschool.

He was taking one account-ing class, but that course didn’tteach anything about the stockmarket.

He decided to enter the com-petition. It couldn’t hurt.

“I didn’t truly know what Iwas doing,” the finance majorsaid.

That risk paid off – almost lit-erally. Tarka, who grew up inEdgewood, placed first in the in-ternational competition with areturn on his “fantasy” $100,000stock portfolio of 15.52 percent.Tarka’s portfolio significantlyoutperformed the second-placefinisher, Wyatt Smith of the Uni-versity of Central Florida,whose portfolio had a return of11.27 percent.

Had it been real money, Tar-ka’s portfolio would have grownby about $15,000 in just 10weeks.

“I was shocked,” said Tarka,as he sits in the Fifth ThirdTraining Center in the WilliamsCollege of Business wearing agray Xavier University dressshirt.

“I’m still coming to termswith it, actually,” he added.

Tarka wasn’t the only Xavierstudent who did well at the com-petition, which was held duringthe fall semester. Six Xavier stu-dents placed in the top 20, morethan any other university.

“I’m very proud of Xavier,”said Kimberly Renners, direc-tor of the Fifth Third TradingCenter.

Renners said Xavier Univer-sity placed so well for severalreasons: The college of businesshas a very engaged studentbody; the college has 11 financeprofessors; and students haveaccess to the Fifth Third Train-ing Center, which has 31 Bloom-berg Terminals, a computer sys-tem that analyzes real-time fi-nancial market data and placetrades for professionals.

“This is the same softwarethat a trader on Wall Street util-izes,” Renners said. “Having ac-cess to that – students are aheadof the curve.”

Given the resources at theWilliams college and Tarka’sown background in the stockmarket, it’s actually not too

much of a surprise that Tarkawon the competition.

One of Tarka’s earliest mem-ories is sitting on his father’s lapin front of a computer and learn-ing about the stock market.

His dad, an automotive engi-neer who writes computer soft-ware, would write programsthat would download stock in-formation off the Internet andanalyze it.

“We would work side-by-side,” Stan Tarka said. “I wouldshow him how it was done.”

Matthew Tarka, who is now19, maintained an interest in thestock market the rest of hisyoung life. In fact, he wouldspend his classes at DixieHeights High School practicinghow to trade stocks. That some-times annoyed his teachers, buthe would never get in trouble forit, Stan Tarka recalls.

During high school, he alsowon a six-month stock pickingcompetition. He won by tradingsmall-cap biotechnology stocks.

Tarka showed that same ex-pertise during the ETF GlobalPortfolio Challenge. Tarkawanted to invest in stocks thathave products behind them thatare consumable or tangible, a tipTarka learned from his father.

Before the contest started,Tarka set up model portfoliosand tested them. Then, hescrapped them after readingpredictions that the price ofcrude oil would decrease. Hebought four inverse commodityETFs, which means he bet on theprice of crude oil to drop.

That bet worked out.In April, Tarka and the other

Xavier winners will travel toNew York City for the ETP Fo-rum. They also get the opportu-nity to have a private lunch withWall Street mentors.

Tarka said he’s thinkingabout entering the next ETFGlobal Portfolio Competition.The deadline for enrollment inthe spring competition is Feb.12.

Will he also start investing inreal stocks?

“No,” Tarka responds. “I’mnot a big gambler.”

Throughout this month ofJanuary, administrators, fac-ulty, staff, students and com-munity members of the Ken-ton County school district arepublicly thanking the sys-tem’s elected board of educa-tion members during Ken-tucky’s observation of SchoolBoard Recognition Month.

Karen Collins, Carl Wick-lund, Jesica Jehn, Josh Crab-tree and Carla Egan areamong the 854 school boardmembers being saluted in thestate’s 173 local school dis-tricts. Their jobs are increas-ingly complex, said Allen Ken-nedy, president of the Ken-tucky School Boards Associa-tion and chairman of theHancock County school board.

“Members of the KentonCounty Board of Educationare responsible for imple-menting policies and makingdecisions that are aimed at en-suring that every child in theirdistrict is successful both as astudent and as a future citizenof their community,” Kennedysaid. “To do this, they mustkeep up with changes in edu-cation laws and regulationsand spend hours on their ownannual professional develop-ment and training.”

Kenton County Schools Su-perintendent Terri Cox-Crueynoted much of that work takesplace outside the board office.

“Because the voting, dis-cussions and actions schoolboard members take happen

during their public meetings,we tend to forget about theirother ‘actions’ in support ofthe Kenton County school sys-tem and its students and theirfamilies. This includes talkingto parents and others in thecommunity, representing thedistrict at community events,attending school activitiesand athletic contests, and of-tentimes acting as studentsthemselves in studying ma-terials to prepare for theirboard meetings,” Cox-Crueysaid.

“I’m thankful to be able towork with this group of elect-ed leaders,” she added, “and Iwould like to ask the commu-nity to express their thanks tothem as well this month.”

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

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

Can you help? McAlister’s chicken anddumpling soup

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

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

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

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

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

1 boneless rolled pork loin roast, about 2-1/2 to 3 pounds1 can jellied cranberry sauce1/2 cup sugar1/2 cup cranberry juice1 teaspoon dry mustard1/4 teaspoon ground cloves or bit more to taste2 tablespoons each: cornstarch and cold water

Put roast in slow cooker. In a bowl mash cranberry sauce,stir in sugar, cranberry juice, mustard and cloves. Pour over roast.Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours or until meat is tender. Removeroast and keep warm. Skim fat; measure 2 cups adding water ifnecessary, and pour into a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Combinecornstarch and water to make a paste and stir into gravy. Cookuntil thickened. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serveover sliced pork.

Red beans and rice

Rice and beans together make a protein filled dish. Useyour favorite beans if you don’t like red beans.

1 very generous cup diced onion2-3 teaspoons garlic, minced1-2 teaspoons cumin1 bay leaf1 teaspoon chili powder blend or to taste2 cups rice2 cans red beans, drained4 cups vegetable or chicken broth, or bit more if neededSalt and pepper to taste

To stir in after cooking: Favorite greens (if using Kale,add when you put rice in as it takes longer to cook).

Garnish: Thinly sliced green onions, chopped tomatoesFilm pan with olive oil. Add onion, garlic, cumin, bay and

chili powder. Saute until onion looks almost clear. Add rice,beans and broth. Bring to boil. Cover and lower to a simmer andcook until rice is tender. Remove bay.

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

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

Most college athletics pro-grams have a tradition thatstudents and fans can rallyaround during sporting events.Think Ohio State’s dotting ofthe “I,” or University of Cin-cinnati’s band charging downthe stadium steps. And, ofcourse, University of Ken-tucky has the “Y” when spell-ing “Kentucky.” If you are

chosen to bethe celebrity“Y” at a UKbasketballgame, well,you’re kind ofa big deal.

Enter ourown NorthernKentuckyUniversity,whose Divi-sion I athleticsprogram is onthe rise.

When basketball seasonbegan last fall, NKU launcheda new tradition of sounding a10-foot gjallarhorn before eachhome game.

What the heck is a gjallar-horn? It’s an historic instru-ment used to call the Norseinto battle – and after only afew short months, it’s alreadyclear that if you’re asked tosound the gjallarhorn before agame, you’re kind of a bigdeal.

So far, celebrities who havecalled the Norse into battleinclude local elected officials,the Kentucky Secretary ofState, and the chair of theNorthern Kentucky Chamberof Commerce.

How the gjallarhorn be-came a new tradition is aninteresting story.

Last summer NKU officialsrealized they needed to re-sand and repaint their basket-ball court to reflect joining theHorizon League. They alsoneeded to reflect the arenaname change from Bank ofKentucky Arena to BB&TArena.

“We thought, if we have topaint the court anyway, let’shave some fun with it, andcreate a buzz and some newtraditions,” said Bryan McEl-

downey, assistant athleticdirector for communications.

So they contacted a market-ing firm called The AgarGroup for some advice, andcame up with the concept ofthe gjallarhorn, modeled afterthe one the Minnesota Vikingsuse.

“It kick-started an embrac-ing of all things Norse, in-cluding the Viking ship on thecourt, as well as the gjallar-horn,” McEldowney said.

But a giant gjallarhorn anda Viking ship were going tocosts tens of thousands ofdollars, which was way out ofbudget.

Enter Todd “T.J.” Johnsonfrom Groth Music near Minne-apolis. T.J. built a gjallarhornfor the Vikings and was able tobuild NKU’s well within bud-get, including the intricatesound system.

It turns out, “sounding” agjallarhorn is not as easy as it,um, sounds.

For one, the gjallarhorn isvery difficult to play.

Enter Conrad Krieger, thestudent pep band director, whorecorded various sound op-tions and eventually settled onthe one people hear today.

There are several ways tosound the horn, but BrandonHays, assistant athletic direc-tor for marketing, promotionsand ticketing, let me in on alittle secret: “Most of the time,our in-game DJ just presses abutton.”

Next, NKU had to build theViking ship and figure out how

it would transport the giantgjallarhorn into the arena.

Enter Bill Kashatus, formerdirector of operations forBB&T Arena, who volunteeredhis time to not only sketch theship’s design, but also to buildit.

Next, they needed to deco-rate it.

Enter Ron Shaw, one of thedirectors in the NKU Theatredepartment, which took careof the staining and decorating.

You see, a lot of peopledonated their time and talentto make this special new tradi-tion. And in true NKU fashion,they took advantage of some-thing that had to change any-way, got a lot of volunteers topitch in, and pulled it off usingvery few dollars.

The Norse have even cre-ated two smaller versions ofthe gjallarhorn (2 ½ foot and 3½ foot), to be used at othersporting events and specialevents.

When you attend a NKUgame these days, you can’thelp but be excited. There’s anew spirit and electricity inthe air. The student body ispassionate about their school,and alumni are coming backwith a sense of pride.

So “Norse Up,” come checkout a game, and see the gjallar-horn in action.

And if you get asked tosound it, say yes – it’s kind of abig deal.

THANKS TO NKU

When basketball season began last fall, Northern Kentucky Universitylaunched a new tradition of sounding a 10-foot gjallarhorn before eachhome game.

Snow is inevitable eachwinter. We worry about goingto work, making it to appoint-ments, or if the kids will have

school. Keeping

the roads clearand passableis a top priori-ty for anygovernment toensure peoplecan go abouttheir businesssafely and tomake sureemergencyservices canresponded in a

timely manner, if needed. I have always been im-

pressed with how well ourVilla Hills Public Works crewremoves snow and ice. This is,in part, because we have avery small department. Wehave a three-man crew – Di-rector Derick “Buck” Yelton,Scott Smith and Corey Schalk.

They work long hours tak-ing care of our streets. Theycome in early to prepare. They

sleep at the city. When thesnow starts to fly, so does ourcrew.

In Villa Hills, we have 109streets with 4.5 miles of roadsto take care of. The city isdivided into three zones andthey have a battle plan to at-tack during inclement weath-er. One pass through the cityplowing or spreading salttakes about four hours. Theirsnow removal plan is wellorganized, prioritizing thestreets and preparing for un-

usual events.I want to publicly commend

them. They do a fabulous jobof snow removal. I truly be-lieve they are the best in Ken-ton County. I know that VillaHills’ citizens recognize this aswell. I typically receive callspraising their work after eachwinter weather event.

To Buck and the boys, asincere thank you for a jobwell done!

The fifth week of the 2016Legislative Session in Frank-fort was historic in a numberof ways. Gov. Matt Bevinsigned his first piece of legis-lation, Senate Bill (SB) 4. Wealso said goodbye to formerState Senator and civil rightsactivist, Georgia Davis Pow-ers.

Senate Bill 4 was the firstpro-life bill to pass both cham-bers in over a decade. Thisnew law would require a wom-an to consult a doctor eitherface-to-face or by tele-healthconference at least 24 hoursprior to moving forward withan abortion procedure. Afterthe bill received concurrencein the Senate on Feb. 2, it wasimmediately delivered to Gov-ernor Bevin’s office by a largedelegation of our Senate mem-bers. The governor immedi-ately signed the bill into law.This bill is a small but signifi-cant step in protecting therights of the unborn. As a pro-life advocate, I am happy to beone vote toward these furtherprotections.

Three other priority billspassed the Senate this week inSB 2, SB 7 and SB 15. SB 2would make the transactionsof our state retirement sys-tems more transparent givingfurther oversight of the sys-tems to the General Assembly.This bill would also add addi-tional requirements for theretirement systems board ofdirectors. SB7 is another pro-life measure aimed at defund-ing Planned Parenthood, I amproud to say it passed the Sen-ate with bipartisan support. SB15 protects religious and politi-cal freedoms to those in educa-tional institutions includingstudents, teachers and admin-istrators.

A wide range of other billspassed the Senate last week;one aiming to accommodateour police officers, another tocreate accountability amongcounty jailers, and anotherpromoting computer scienceeducation.

TheSenate Appropriations andRevenue Committee will beginhearing testimony on the gov-ernor’s proposed budget thisweek, and we look forward toworking with the House ofRepresentatives and GovernorBevin to pass a fiscally respon-sible biennial budget.

Clippers competed in Austin,Texas and hosted a home meetin Erlanger. While the major-ity of the team was swimmingat the Mid Winter Classic, sixmembers of the National teamtraveled to Austin to competein the Austin Pro Series. InAustin, these swimmers hadthe opportunity to competeagainst some of the top swim-mers in the world. While at themeet, Madeleine Vonderhaarpicked up her 100 breaststrokeOlympic trial cut. She alsobroke the 17-18 girls 100 and200 breaststroke Ohio LSCRecords as well.

Sophie Skinner also addedto her Olympic trials scheduleby picking up her 200 IM cut.

Head coach Norm Wright iswas enthusiastic based onthese swimmers perfor-mances.

“The Arena Pro Swim Se-ries in Austin was a great startto the Olympic year,” Wrightsaid. “We had multiple perfor-mances that rank in the top-50in the world for 2016.”

The balance of the teamcompeted at the 30th AnnualMid Winter Classic hosted bythe Clippers. This meet was ahuge success for the swim-mers as they swam approxi-mately 68 percent lifetimebest times.

The game featured two headcoaches with two retired jer-seys and about 7,000 careerpoints at the high school level.

But when Highlands andDixie Heights convened Feb. 5in a girls basketball game atDixie, both Jaime (Walz) Richeyand Tara (Boothe) Smith weresolely focused on getting theirteams ready for the postseason.

“We go out there and we kindof put that aside,” Smith said.“We’re both trying to win thegame and we’re both trying topush our team to get better.”

Highlands beat Dixie 66-41,making 1996 Highlands gradu-ate Richey 5-0 against 2002Highlands graduate Smith.

“Tara does a great job at Dix-ie,” Richey said. “I can’t sayenough good things. She alwayshas them ready and she doessome things that she doesn’t doin other games. She does a greatjob.”

Highlands improved to 17-9and Dixie fell to 11-13. The Blue-birds had recently suffered astretch of six losses in sevengames, three of the losses com-ing to fellow Ninth Region con-tenders Holmes, Holy Crossand Ryle, and another two to de-fending regional championsfrom 2015, Mason County andMale.

“We told the girls we have atough stretch coming up andthat we had to just get better,”Richey said. “Once we gotthrough that stretch, we saidthat hopefully it will pay off inFebruary. And we’re seeing thatin practice. They’re listening towhat we’ve been preaching andwe’re seeing it in games now.”

Dixie had won five of its pre-vious six, four of them in 34thDistrict seed games, giving theColonels the top seed in the post-season tournament as they willhunt for the district champion-ship.

“They’re a very good teamand we weren’t able to hangwith them tonight,” Smith said.“We’re a lot better than what weshowed tonight. We have toerase this game from our mem-ory and move forward. I stillthink we’re a very good teamthat has a lot of good players andI think we can do somethingdown the stretch.”

Senior Jenna Bluemlein ledDixie with nine points. Juniorguard Kylie Brock and fresh-

man Kaylee McGinn had eighteach. Junior forward BrookeDavis leads the way for the sea-son at 12 points per game. Brockposts 10. Bluemlein and fresh-man guard Grace Perry aver-age over seven points apiece.Davis is the top rebounder atfive a contest.

When Evan Brungs brings it,he is a picture of unbroken con-centration on the diving boardfor the Covington Catholic Colo-nels.

“He’s level-headed, and hetakes it very seriously,” Cov-Cath coach Chris Goodpastersaid. “When Evan’s on, he’s un-beatable.”

The focused senior beat thenearest competitor by nearly 83points at the recently completedScott Eagle Classic divingchampionships, and recognizedit as a step in a process on a pathto perfection rather than a rout.

Brungs finished with a scoreof 486.45 while outpacing run-ner-up Dallas Corsmeier (404)of St. Henry and third-place GusStaubitz (396) of Holy Cross.CovCath, St. Henry and HolyCross shared the team title.

Champion Lindsey Fox andteammate Alexis Epperson fin-ished 1-2 in the girls’ divingevent for team champion Scott.

“I had two mediocre divesand the rest were pretty good,”said Brungs, in his sixth varsitydiving season. He started atBoone County. “Dallas had one

fail. If he didn’t have that fail,(the lead) would have been morelike 40 points.”

The CovCath veteran re-spects Corsmeier and Staubitz,fellow state-qualifying diverswho get stronger during the sea-son. Highlands’ Finn Murphy,Holy Cross’ Owen Finke andBoone County’s Sean Courtney

scored 300 or better while plac-ing 4-5-6 at Scott.

So, Brungs is leaving nothingto chance. He upped his gamefor the recent NKAC meet by in-creasing the degree of difficultyon some of his dives. “I’m work-ing on some things,” Brungs

TAYLOR MILL – SinceBrad Carr took over as headcoach of the Scott High Schoolbasketball program, therehave been a lot of memorablenights. However, Jan. 29 hasto rank among the top eve-nings in the program’s histo-ry, much less during Carr’stenure.

That was the night juniorguard Jake Ohmer scored 42points in a win at BrackenCounty to surpass 1992 gradChris Haynes’ all-time scor-ing mark of 1,596 points. Thevictory also marked Carr’s182nd career win at theschool, moving him past JeffTrame into first place as theprogram’s all-time winnin-gest coach.

“I was joking with all of thebasketball coaches like, ‘Man,what are we going to do withthis basketball if we win to-night?’ ” Carr said.

So who ended up with it?“It’s Jake’s … it’s definitely

Jake’s,” Carr said. “That’s go-ing to be something that peo-ple will remember. Peoplewon’t remember the all-timewinningest coach.”

“When you set out to coach,it’s not like you say you wantto become the all-time winnin-gest coach or anything likethat, but I knew coming intothis season that I was closeand it was a personal goal ofmine,” Carr added. “Whatmade it even more meaning-ful for me was the fact thatJake broke the scoring recordduring that game as well.”

Ohmer said he wasn’t surehow many points he neededgoing into the game, but whenthe public address announcercame over the loud speaker inthe second quarter it was a“really cool” moment.

“My coaches told me I wasclose early in the game, but Ididn’t know how close,” Ohm-er said. “I didn’t know I wasgoing to break it that game. Ittook some pressure off mewhen I found out I got it, be-cause then I wasn’t worriedabout it anymore. That’s how Igot going in the second halfand scored 42 points.”

Ohmer has also broken theschool’s single-game scoringrecord multiple times overthe last two years. His recordcurrently stands at 54, a feathe accomplished back on Dec.5 this season in a 100-98 over-time win at George Rogers

Clark. “He does it in a number of

different ways,” Carr said.“He can shoot the three reallywell. If you guard him close,he can get to the front of therim and score on you. And heshoots a lot of free throws,and shoots them effectively.If you’re going to be a scorer,I’d suggest you do it in allthree areas, and that’s exactlywhat he does. He also has anice mid-range game. It’sgreat to have someone thatyou know can put the ball inthe hole night in and nightout.”

With a month left in his ju-nior season, Ohmer hasscored 30 or more points 14times, 40 or more four times,and hit 50 twice. When askedabout what’s left in terms ofpersonal goals or milestonesto achieve, he seems totallyunfazed by the magnitude ofhis accomplishments, andmakes it clear that his onlyreal focus is on making it to astate tournament.

“As I’ve said before, I justwant to go to state,” Ohmersaid. “But, for me personally,I think I can add onto the scor-ing record and just try tobreak 2,000 points next.”

Carr said that while Ohmeris quiet and humble, he has afierce competitive drive onthe court.

“He’s a very unassuming,but competitive kid,” Carrsaid. “I don’t really think he’sin it to break records or any-thing. He’s a great kid, andvery, very competitive. Mostof it is him driving himself totry and be the best he can pos-sibly be.”

In terms of the scoring rec-ord, Carr is a little more boldabout his expectations forOhmer.

“We haven’t really sat andtalked about it, but I think hecould get to (former Dixiestar and Northern Kentucky’sall-time leading scorer) Bran-don Hatton level to be honestwith you,” Carr said.

“He could score over 3,000points. We don’t sit and setpersonal goals, but I think hecan lead the state in scoringnext year.”

In Carr’s 12 seasons, Scotthas won four 37th Districtchampionships and appearedin two 10th Region titlegames. He was recently in-ducted into the Northern Ken-tucky Sports Hall of Fame,and his career record cur-rently sits at 183-171.

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

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

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

Tyler White sealed the winwith a three with nine secondsleft in what turned out to be aspecial night for the seniorguard, who also joined NKU’s1,000-point club in the first half.

Billups led four NKU playersin double figures with 20 pointson 8 of 14 shooting to go with sixrebounds.

Cole Murray posted 15 pointsof 5-for-7 shooting from behindthe arc. Lavone Holland II fol-lowed with 12 points and four as-sists, while White turned in acomplete game with 10 points,five rebounds and six assists.

White’s first big momentcame at the 15:32 mark of theopening half, when he becamethe 25th Norse to join the 1,000career point club with a drivinglayup. NKU then forced fourMilwaukee turnovers in a twominute span, but struggled totake advantage on the offensiveend.

A pair of Panther runs al-lowed Milwaukee to take a 32-20lead with six minutes left in thehalf. NKU shifted the momen-tum in the final minutes of theperiod, connecting on four of itslast five attempts while Mil-waukee went 2-for-8 to close thehalf.

NKU trailed 39-32 at the in-termission and then by 11 with10:59 remaining. NKU out-scored Milwaukee 26-11the restof the way as the Homecoming

crowd of 4,048 came to life.“Obviously it was a tremen-

dous win for our young men,”Brannen said. “That’s an out-standing team. They’re a well-coached team, they have achampionship pedigree interms of NCAA tournaments.They’re seniors, their tough-ness level was a difficult prep.I’m proud of our resiliency. Inthe second half, we adjusted.”

NKU returns to actionThursday, Feb. 11 when theytravel to take on League-leadingValparaiso at 8 p.m.

Drew McDonald came justshy of a double-double witheight points and eight rebounds.The Newport Central Catholicgraduate, in his freshman sea-son, has not started a game buthas played all 23 and averages9.7 points and 5.7 rebounds agame.

At the game’s first mediatimeout, NKU Athletics an-nounced a five-year partner-ship with adidas. The Portland,Oregon-based company will bethe official athletic footwear,apparel and accessory brand ofthe Norse through the 2020-21season.

“This is a great moment forNorthern Kentucky athletics,”said Ken Bothof, Director ofAthletics. “Partnering with adi-das gives us the ability to outfitall 250+ student-athletes fromhead to toe with apparel, equip-ment and accessories from aworld-renowned and premierbrand.

“Adidas recognizes what allof us in Norse Nation alreadyknow – there is real value inNKU, our student-athletes andthe success we will have in Divi-sion I.”

He remainedcommitted until the end,telling Sister Marla ev-erything she needed tomake sure would happenat the upcoming break-fast.

Since 1996, the LudlowKnights of Columbushave hosted a pancakebreakfast to benefit theCovington Sisters of No-tre Dame mission inUganda.

The SND mission, justone year older than thepancake breakfast, is lo-cated in a remote area ofUganda and is comprisedof nursery, primary andsecondary schools, aswell as a subsistencefarm and congregationalformation center.

According to Carl Bi-ery, Newport residentand member of the Lud-low Knights of Columbus,the event began at the re-quest of the late Ed Mona-han. Monahan was aGrand Knight with a spe-cial connection to the Sis-ters of Notre Dame. Hisdaughter, Sister MarlaMonahan, served as Co-vington Provincial from

2005-2014.The event originally

benefited the Catholic ur-ban schools in Covington,as well as the mission inUganda. Sister Marla ex-plained, “My father rec-ognized, I think, the Afri-can proverb that it takes avillage to raise a child. Hewanted to recognize thatwe have children in needboth at home and in otherlands.”

Monahan did all thathe could to recognizeneed and the importanceof education.

“When the breakfastwas first begun, he wouldcontact local politiciansbecause he felt that theyhad an important role inthe life of the city. Hewanted them to be awareof our responsibility to-gether to make sure thatthese children were re-ceiving a good education,so that they could live the

Sisters of Notre DameUganda Mission Office,expressed her gratitudefor the Knights’ work andnoted the ease of theevent.

“The Knights of Co-lumbus are alwaysfriendly,” Sister MaryMargaret said. “Theywear a smile and seem to

enjoy working together.Plus, they take care to getall of the food and work toget as much donated aspossible, thus eliminatingexpenses.”

Biery also acknowl-edged the dedication ofhis fellow members. “Myfavorite aspect is seeinghow many Knights turn

out to work,” he said. “Wehost a lot of events, butthis one seems to drawmore workers. And wedon’t even have to callthem. They just showup!”

Sister Mary Margaretremembered one familyin particular that took ad-vantage of the casual am-biance. “Through theyears, people who comeseem to enjoy the relaxedatmosphere. For severalyears, one family broughtthe Sunday paper withthem. After the meal,they sat back and enjoyeda leisurely reading of thepaper together.”

When asked what heattributes to the event’slongevity and success,Biery did not have tothink before responding.

“This is what theKnights of Columbus areall about – charity. Whenwe can do a charitableevent that we really en-joy, that we can feel goodabout, we don’t hesitate,”Biery said. “This is oneevent we still feel reallygood about after 20 years.Everyone just feels warmand fuzzy.”

Question: Is it truethat winter is a good timeto start grass seed, sincethe freezing and thawingwill help get the seedsinto the ground? I haveheard you can eventhrow grass seed on topof the snow and it willgrow when the snowmelts. Is that true?

Answer: Mid-Febru-ary through late March isa great time to start the

cool-sea-son grass-es fromseed, suchas thefescues,bluegrassand peren-nial rye-grass.

You willget a bet-ter, moreuniform

stand of grass if youbroadcast the seed di-rectly over the ground,rather than on the snow.For small patches, rakethe seed in by hand. Forover-seeding largerareas, rent a slit-seeder.

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

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

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

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

Seeding of new lawnsshould be done into loose,prepared soil. Seeding isusually done with a ro-tary seeder or the usualdrop-type seed and fertil-izer spreader. To deter-mine the proper seedingrates, see the publicationmentioned above. Foruniform distribution,divide the seed into twoequal lots. The second lotshould be seeded at rightangles to the first. Coverthe seed by raking lightlyor rolling with a water-ballast roller. Mulch thearea with clean straw orother suitable material.The mulch coveringshould be thin enough toexpose about 50 percentof the soil surface, whichmeans using about onebale of straw per 1,000square feet of area. Wa-ter frequently, especiallyif you do not use mulch.

Moisture is probably

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

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