WAYNE TWP. — Residentsfrom Roudebush and MeekRoads inWayne Township voicedongoing concerns about a shoot-ing range on Roudebush Road atthe zoning commission and trust-

ees’ meetings, Sept. 5 and 6, re-spectively.

Shortly after Rob Kirk, 6186RoudebushRoad, built a shootingrange in his backyard, nearbyresidents began making com-plaints to township trusteesabout therange.EricandBeverlyThomas, 6200 Roudebush Road,contacted The Community Pressin July, after being told by town-ship officials that the range didnot violate zoning code.

In a residentialzoning district inWayne Township,there is no codeprohibiting shoot-ing ranges, if theyare used for per-sonal recreationaluse. However, ashooting range

built on residentially zoned prop-erty may not be operated forprofit.

“As long as they’re not run-ning it for a business, you cannotstop them from (shooting) intheir yard unless it comes downthat you feel it’s a safety issue,”Trustee DonWilson said.

In addition to not being pro-hibited by zoning code, the rangecomplies with zoning regula-tions, zoning inspector FrankKoutny said.

“It’s a very safe setup he’sgot,” Koutny said.

Kirk, who was at the Sept. 6trustees’ meeting said he was notaware of his neighbors’ concernsuntil reading about them in theCommunity Journal North. Hesaid none of his neighbors havecome to him personally to ex-press concerns about the range.

“I would have worked withany of my neighbors,” Kirk said.

GOSHEN TWP. — The list ofsafety service equipment inneed of replacement is grow-ing, with the latest addition be-ing hydraulic rescue tools,commonly known as the Jawsof Life.

For years, the township’sfire and police departmentshave been maintaining, ratherthan replacing, old and outdat-ed equipment, such as the hy-draulic rescue equipment.Some equipment is beginningto fail and is no longer coveredunder maintenance agree-ments.

“We’re in a situation nowwherewehavehad someminorfailures of this (hydraulic res-cue) equipment on emergencyruns,” Goshen Fire Chief StevePegram said. “Luckily, we’vealwayshadaback-up tool oran-other piece of equipment wecould use to get the job done.”

The equipment failure ishappening at a time when thetownship is making a third at-tempt at passing a 3.25-millsafety levy. Previous safety

levies in 2008and 2010 wererejected by vot-ers.

“Our goal isnot to build newfirehouses, orhire new em-ployees,” Pe-gram said. “We

will maintain the same level ofservice.”

Money from the levy, ifpassed, would go toward sala-ries and equipment for the po-lice and fire departments, bothof which are operating in a def-icit, Pegram said.

In August, trustees appro-priated $30,000 from the town-ship’s building fund for a newphone system for the admini-stration and fire departmentbuildings. The hydraulic res-cue equipment would costabout $25,000 to $30,000 to re-place, Pegram said.

Other equipment in need ofreplacement includesagenera-tor,whichPegramsaidcancostclose to $50,000 and new patrolcars for the police department.

“The cars are unsafe for thepatrolmen to drive,” TrusteeRay Autenrieb said. “They def-initely need to be replaced.”

See TOOLS, Page A2CLERMONT CO. — A pilot pro-

ject will make available a limitednumber of landscape trees toClermont County property own-ers who had trees removed fromtheir lawns as part of eradicationefforts to keep the Asian long-horned beetle from spreading.

The project, announced Sept.13, is a joint effort by theOhioDe-partment of Natural Resourcesand Ohio Department of Agricul-ture.

The state agencies Sept. 4 an-

nounced $250,000 in funding forthe tree replacement program.

The beetle was initially dis-covered in Tate Township in inJune 2011.

The federal and state officialsin 2011 began surveying trees inthe area and so far have discov-ered more than 8,800 trees infes-ted with the beetle. Work crewshad removed 8,746 of the trees asof Sept. 15.

The state is working with theU.S. Department of Agricultureto eliminate the beetle.

Most of the infestation hasbeen in Tate Township and Be-

thel, with isolated areas of infes-tation in Monroe and Stonelicktownships.

“If the Asian longhorned bee-tle escapes from the Bethel areaand spreads across Ohio then1,000-fold the current number oflandowners will be impacted andtens of thousands of jobs could belost in the nursery and wood in-dustries,” said Robert Boyles,state forester and chief of theODNR Division of Forestry.“This pilot project is meant toshowappreciationfor thecooper-

Aworker in Tate Township cuts down a tree infested with the Asian longhoned beetle. The OhioDepartment of Natural Resources will have a limited number of trees available to property owners who losttrees because of the beetle. COMMUNITY PRESS FILE PHOTO

Recent Quality Care Therapy ReviewsPatricia B. was admitted to Mt. Washington Care Center after a fall at home.Initially fall x-rays did not show a fracture. After a few weeks with increased pain, Patreturned to the hospital and a second x-ray showed a fracture to her femur. Pat underwentsurgical repair, she had a screw fixation of the femoral neck performed by a physician inthe Wellington Orthopaedic Group. Upon arrival at Mt. Washington Care Center, Pat wasdependent on staff members to assist her with bathing, dressing and transferring fromwheelchair to bed and to her chair. Pat received physical and occupational therapy forapproximately six weeks. After her rehabilitation process, Pat was able to take care of allher personal needs from bathing and dressing to transfers. She was also able to progressfrom requiring the assistance from staff members to move herself to walking independentlywith a rolling walker over 250 feet, and getting in and out of bed and in and out of a carindependently. Pat is now home with her loving husband.

Vicki D. came to Mt. Washington Care Center with congestive heart failure after spendingtime at Drake Hospital for rehabilitation, which at the time was too intense for her totolerate. Vicki was on 2 liters of oxygen, unable to take care of her personal needs, andunable to walk more than 10 feet with oxygen and a rolling walker without stopping torest. Vicki received physical and occupational therapy for approximately four weeks. Afterthose four weeks of therapy, Vicki is now able to independently dress, bathe and sheis walking 250 feet with a cane and without the use of oxygen. With the support of herfamily and home care, Vicki returned home with her family. Good luck Vicki!

Jane L. chose to come to Mt. Washington Care Center after an accident at work whichresulted in a broken hip requiring joint replacement surgery. After approximately fiveweeks of receiving physical and occupational therapy, Jane was able to independentlytake care of all of her personal care needs. She was also able to walk independently witha rolling walker over 200 feet. Jane had to work through restrictions from her surgeonregarding weight bearing. Jane was able to apply compensatory techniques and useadaptive equipment with training from the therapists. After almost six weeks of therapyaddressing her ability to take care of her personal needs, her ability to walk, her standingand walking balance, Jane was able to return to her home and begin the retirement thatwas planned prior to her accident. Way to go Jane!

The pilot tree replace-ment project will allow af-fected landowners to ob-tain up to 10 landscapetrees with an averageheight of five feet.

The new trees will bespecies not usually suscep-tible to Asian longhorned

beetle infestation.Information on how to

apply can be found atohiodnr.com/forestry or bycalling 932-6836.

ODNR foresters en-courage landowners tosub-mit their applications bySept. 26.

In addition, landownerswith woodlots impacted bytheeradicationeffortsmayrequest to have a foresterprovide them with techni-cal advice on their woodsand about how best to ob-tain federal land improve-ment funds.

Brett Gates, public in-formation officer for theOhio Department of Agri-

culute, said the Asian long-horned beetle eradicationprogram in Ohio has re-leased a request for pro-posal (RFP) for surveywork.

The program is lookingto secure a contractor whowill survey to detect infes-ted trees to determine theextent of the infestation inClermont County as quick-ly as possible, Gates said.

The RFP has been post-ed online and is open forproposal solicitationthrough 1 p.m. Friday, Oct.12. It canbefoundat thefol-lowing link:tinyurl.com/d9nomjn.

Autenrieb said the new-est police car is from 2006,and it has more than100,000 miles on it. He saidthere is no money in thegeneral fund to loan the de-partment for vehicles.

For township officialsand safety service employ-ees, theconcern is formorethan the outdated equip-ment. If the levy does notpass, there is a possibility

that the township wouldhave to switch to a part-time police departmentand outsource fire andEMS services.

“Wehavedonewhatwasneeded for the emergencysituations to keep thingsrunning,” Autenrieb said.

If the levy passes, it willbe the first tax increase ofany kind for Goshen Town-ship in 10 years, Pegramsaid.

The fire and police de-partments currently col-lect tax revenue from a 28-year-old fire levy, a 20-yearold police levy and an 18-year-old ambulance levy.

The levy on the Novem-ber ballot would be a five-year levy, which could berenewed in the future.

of the range and Kirk’swillingness to work withother residents toward aresolution, concerns per-sist for Kirk’s neighbors.

“There is a potentialdanger thosebullets couldricochet into rock,” saidDon Trapp, 6252 Roude-bush Road.

Trapp said the noisefromgunsbeing firedalsocreates a disturbance inthe neighborhood. OneSaturday inAugust,Trappsaid he heard guns firingat the range from about10a.m. until about 5 p.m. Hesaid hehadguests visiting

at the time, and they hadto stay inside because ofthe noise.

Wilson said he has spo-ken with Kirk about con-cerns that have beenraised. He said he hasasked Kirk to limit hisshooting to certain timesand suggested noon to 4p.m. Saturdays and Sun-days as an acceptabletime.

Wilson said hewill con-tinue looking into themat-ter, but he does not thinkthere is a way to legallyprohibit or further limitthe shooting range.

“It comes down to theSecond Amendment,”Kirk said. “I moved to thecountry so I could exer-cise my rights.”

STONELICKTWP.—Cler-montNortheastern Super-intendent Ralph Shell sug-gested the school districtcreate an independenteducational foundation.

“It would be for thegood of all students,” hesaid. “I think peoplewoulddonate to a foundation tohelp the kids.”

Shell made the sugges-tion during a Sept. 17 pres-entation to the public andschool board on district fi-nances.

“I amnot proposing it, Iwould just like the boardto think about it,” he said.

Shell said one of thethings the foundation

could do ispay theclass feesand pay-to-play athlet-ic fees forall stu-dents.

He saidonly 43 per-

cent of students pay thefees now.The fees of otherstudents are eitherwaived or not paid.

“We have 43 percent ofthe people carrying it all,”Shell said.

He said families couldwrite off on their taxes thedonations to the founda-tion.

Board Member MikeFreeman said the ideawould have to be studied

by the board.During his presenta-

tion, Shell said the districtis at a disadvantage instate funding because ofits large land mass – 78square miles.

“Almost a third of Cler-mont County is in CNE,”he said. “We have all thisland, but few kids.”

Shell said students wholive in a rural district arepunished because of thestate funding formula.

In spite of the fundinginequity, Shell said he willnot propose higher taxes.

“As long as I’m here,I’m not going to ask for alevy,” he said. “People arepaying enough already.”

Cincinnati Nature Cen-ter will be honoring HelenBlack at the first Cincin-nati Nature Center Conser-vation Awards dinner Oct.2 at Krippendorf Lodge.

Proceeds from the eve-ning will be used to estab-lish the Helen C. BlackConservation Fund for ad-ditional land acquisitionand conservation ease-ments at Cincinnati Na-ture Center.

Black, an Indian Hillresident, is one of the 12dedicated naturalists whofounded the CincinnatiNature Center in1965. Sheserved as a teaching vol-unteer, land steward, andanactivehonorary trustee

and landscommitteemember.

BillHopple, ex-ecutive di-rector ofCincinnatiNatureCenter,

said while the fundsraised from the awardsdinner will help the non-profit group in future landpreservation efforts, theevent will shine a spot-light on one of its foundingmembers.

“Our intent is to firstand foremost honor Helenfor the lifetime commit-ment,” Hopple said.

However, Black saidwhile she appreciates thehonor being given to her,

she wants the focus of theevent to stay on natureconservancy.

“I hope it calls atten-tion to the natural beautyof the Cincinnati area,”she said.

Black said her love ofnature began at a youngage, growing up “playingin the woods,” and con-tinued through adulthood,as she’s spent much of herlife raising awareness forthe benefits of clean airand water.

Besides Cincinnati Na-ture Center, Black hasplayed an instrumentalrole in the founding andworking with many otherregional conservation or-ganizations including:Edge of Appalachia Pre-serve, TheNature Conser-

vancy, Greenacres, Cin-cinnati Museum Center,Indian Hill Garden Club,Little Miami Inc., Cincin-nati Wildflower Preserva-tion Society, Lloyd Li-brary and Museum andThe Hillside Trust.

UNIONTWP.—AsJungleJim’s grocery store pre-pared to open its new storeat 4450 Eastgate SouthDrive Sept. 25, severaltownship residents areconcerned that the busi-ness has received an addi-tional $1 million loan fromtaxpayers’ money.

The Union TownshipCommunity ImprovementCorp. recently agreed toloan Jungle Jim’s an addi-tional $1 million, bringingthe total amount of taxpay-er’s money loaned to thestore to $9.5 million. Theadditionalmoney iscomingout of Tax Increment Fi-nancing funds, said UnionTownship Trustee RobertMcGee.

Tax Increment Financ-ing funds allows govern-ment entities to borrowagainst an area’s future taxrevenues in order to investin immediate projects orencourage present devel-opment.

But Jungle Jim’s re-quest for additional publicfundinghassomeresidentsconcerned.

“Amilliondollars is a lotof money,” said UnionTownship resident JohnMcGraw.

“I’m surprised therewasn’t much asked aboutit.”

Stuart Kennedy, also aUnion Township resident,said he is concerned aboutJungle Jim’s economic sta-bility and the company’sability to repay the money.

“Why are they comingto local government for themoney?” Kennedy asked.

Union Township FiscalOfficer Ron Campbell saidthe only change in the 8-year lease term agreed tolast month is that JungleJim’s will pay more in renteach month than under the

previous agreement.“It’s the same condi-

tions, the same agreementand the same terms of re-payment,” said UnionTownship AdministratorKen Geis.

Trustees said the com-pany has already begun torepay the money.

“Money is flowing in,”said Union Township Trus-tee Matthew Beamer.

The company can putthe additional $1million to-ward site, structure, facili-ty or inventory.

McGee said the moneyhas not been used yet.

Reducing waste at school in-stills a culture of stewardship instudents while helping schoolsreduce their waste bill. Withsome creativity and a simplechange of habit, schools can re-duce their waste and make alasting impact on students.

One school making a uniqueenvironmental impact is St. Co-lumban School in Loveland.During the 2011-2012 schoolyear, St. Columban received agrant awarded by the HamiltonCounty Recycling and SolidWaste District to focus onschool waste reduction.

“It is absolutely amazing tomewhere that $1,304 grant tookus,” Chris Schell, St. Columbanvolunteer and parishioner said.“We were able to add single-stream recycling collection

with Rumpke as well as interiorrecycling containers and sig-nage. So much has been accom-plished with so many generousfolks.”

St. Columban organized a ze-ro waste day to celebrate bothEarthDayandArborDay. Itwashugely successful, according toSchell. There was 93 percentparticipation of students andjust one small wastebasket af-ter 700 students ate lunch.

“It was fun to see how enthu-siastic the students were aboutparticipating and making ourschool greener,” said TheresaCummins,GreenTeamleaderatSt. Columban.

To prepare, St. Columbanlooked at easy ways to reducewaste. First, individually-pack-aged items in the cafeteria linewere removed. The cafeteriadid not serve any individuallypackaged chips and none of thejuice was served that day. In-

stead, the school bought a bigbox of popcorn and pretzels andserved individual portions.

Next, the school consideredutensils and plates. The schoolcafeteria had already been us-ing compostable trays, but add-ed compostable silverware tothemenu for the zerowaste day.These itemswere thencompost-ed offsite.

Everyone took part – theschool’sGreenTeamvolunteershelped serve since the studentscouldn’t grab and go. St. Colum-ban spread the word by makingannouncements all week, re-minding students about what tobring or not bring in theirlunches that day. They alsomade sure parents were aware.

“We saw great carryover af-ter the event; students were us-ing more reusable containersand throwing away less food.Wealso received feedback fromparents that the students were

recycling more at home,” Cum-mins said.

The Hamilton County Recy-cling and Solid Waste Districtsupplied awareness materialsfor a back-to-school open houseearly in the school year. As partof the District’s Recycling As-sistanceProgram,St.Columbanalso received desk-side recy-cling containers for class-rooms, recycled-content pen-cils, and flyers on garbage-freelunches.

This school has a history ofenvironmental initiatives. St.Columban has been a memberof Rumpke’s Recycle Challengesince 2007. The school utilizestwo, six-yard commingled recy-cling boxes that are collectedtwice a week.

People from five differentschools observed St. Colum-ban’s recycling in action as theyhope to do something similar attheir schools.

BATAVIA — Off to a 6-4 start,the Clermont Northeastern girlssoccer team is looking for itsthird winning season in fouryears under coach Misty Goetz.

“I’ve worked really hard tobuild the team at CNE,” Goetzsaid. “We’ve come a long way inthe past four years.”

Goetz stepped down after last

season to tend to family, butdidn’twant to leavewhatshebuiltin the hands of another.

“I wanted to see the programcontinue,” shesaid. “Thegirlsaresoacceptingofmeandrespectfulofme. I think to some extent theywant to do well because we havesuch a good relationship. I dokind of take pride in myself withwhat we’ve built here. It’s nice tocome back to a team that wel-comesme and is playing sowell.”

After losing the first twogames of the season to Wilming-ton and Batavia, the Lady Rock-ets ran off five wins in a row andsix of eight. They are currentlyrankedNo.10 inTheEnquirerDi-

vision III area coaches’ poll.Of their four losses, two came

to ranked teams (Batavia, West-ern Brown) while Wilmington isjust outside the top10 andAmeliais 6-1-3 on the season.

“My team is doing awesome,”Goetz said. “They are coming to-gether nicely. We’ve played ex-tremely well against everyoneexceptAmelia.We’ve been an ex-cellent passing team, which iswhat we try to focus on. We’vedone better with finishing. Myfreshmen are amazing. I’m justso excited about them, and myseniors are doing great.”

SeniorEmmaWright has beenkey for the Lady Rockets. She

leads her team with 13 points, in-cluding six goals and an assist.

“She’s been a key factor espe-cially as a playmaker on thefield,” her coach said. “She issomeone who controls the inten-sity of the game with how sheplays.”

Two of the freshmen Goetz isexcited about are defenders Lex-ie Walker and Katlin Reese. Itwas at preseason junior varsityscrimmage against Seton whenWalker made an impression.

“Theyhavereallyaddedtoourdefense,” Goetz said. “It’s justamazing to watch them. (Lexie)just impressed me so much. Ihadn’t considered her for varsity

before (the scrimmage) and nowshe is a starting varsity player.”

Oneof thesurprisesof thesea-son came at a cost. Against Bata-via the Lady Rockets’ top scorerfrom 2011, Kyla Toles, was takenout and will miss the entire sea-sondue to injury.SophomoreJen-ny Erikson stepped in for Tolesand has four goals and an assistthis season.

“She is a really quiet, shy girlbutshe isoneof the topscorersonthe team,” Goetz said. “I just callher silent but deadly. She gets outthere and just gets the job done.She stepped in and took (Toles’)spot and has been very success-ful.”

MILFORD — It was just twoyears ago when Milford’s Ra-chael Sullivan was a first-teamall-league player and finished10th in the Fort Ancient ValleyConference in kills per game.

Going into the 2012 seasonthere was a lot of uncertaintysurrounding Sullivan and if shecould get back towhere shewasas a sophomore.

After missing all of last sea-sonwitha tornanterior cruciateligament, the senior is back onthe court leading the EasternCincinnati Conference in kills(127) and kills per game (3.18).

“I think I’ve played a lot bet-ter than I thought I was going tocoming back from the injury,”Sullivan said. “I didn’t think Iwould be first in the league inkills, but I’ve just been workinghard and strengthening my legand trying togetback to thewayI used to be.”

The road backwasn’t easy. Itwas a process that started withbaby steps and eventually ledher to where she is today.

“It is definitely hard comingback,” she said. “When I firstgot cleared I wasn’t at fullstrength like I am now. Therewere a lot of stressfulmoments,but I had to push myself. Some

days were harder than others,but I just kept wanting to getback no matter what it took orhowmentally painful it was.”

Even back at full strength,Sullivan still hasmental hurdlesevery time she feels the slight-est pain in her leg.

“In the beginning I alwaysthought there was somethingwrong,” she said concerning thepain in her leg. “But, after talk-ing with others who (wentthrough the same injury) it isnormal. There will always bepain but you just have to pushthrough and ignore the pain.”

Sullivan has her Lady Eaglesoff to a 9-5 start and sitting inthird place in the newly formedECC.Thenew leagueandher in-jury brought forth an interest-ing start to the season.

“The season has been good,”Sullivan said. “The wholeleague has been crazy. We arereally up andmore positive thisyear, more than in the past.”

With the season just past thehalfway point, Sullivan is look-ing forward to leading her LadyEagles to a league champion-ship: Something that would putacaponan incrediblecomebackand very nice high school ca-reer.

“Wehad it inourmindset thatwe were going to be the team towin the league,” the senior said.“We knew with the talent com-ing back, the underclassmenand the peoplewehave, it is justa really exciting thing to knowwe are going to possibly win theleague.”

Milford senior Rachael Sullivan (7) goes up to spike the ball againstWestern Brown Sept. 8. Sullivan, who is coming back from an ACLinjury, leads the ECC in kills and kills per game. THANKS TO JEFF SULLIVAN

As it had all afternoon, howev-er, Fenwick fired back, drawingevenona16-yard touchdownpasswith less than a minute left toplay.

It has become an annualritual. Gas prices spike - fur-ther burdening American fam-ilies and causing outrage acrossthe United States.

President Obama says thereis no “magic wand” that willbring oil prices down - and thatwe need to discuss long-termenergy strategies. Instead, weusually resort to a short-termgimmick, like opening the Stra-tegic Petroleum Reserve. Sum-mer turns to fall, and we moveon to another topic.

Unfortunately, this is no timeto move on. Today, some 13million Americans are out ofwork. Establishing a long-termenergy plan can help change all

of those num-bers for thebetter.

The fact isthat our nationhas far moreuntapped oilthan what is inthe StrategicPetroleumReserve. Thereis great poten-tial to develop

our own domestic energy sourc-es on federal lands, but we keepgetting in our own way.

The federal government ismaking it more difficult to tapthe sources of energy. Oncethose sources are available, the

government throws up roadblocks to bringing that energyto consumers.

The House of Representa-tives considered a bill, the Do-mestic Energy and Jobs Act,that seeks to harness our do-mestic energy resources. It alsowould help put Americans backto work, lower gas prices overthe long term, and reduce ourdependence on foreign sourcesof oil.

More specifically, this billseeks to stop the Obama admini-stration from hindering domes-tic oil and natural gas produc-tion on federal lands – whilecutting bureaucratic red tapeand streamlining the federal

permitting process.It also would require the

federal government to set long-er-term production goals - usingan “all of the above” approachto meeting our nation’s energyneeds. And, it would make theEnvironmental ProtectionAgency consider the effects ofits rules and regulations ondomestic energy consumers.

This is a common-senseapproach for the government tomaintain a steady hand in pro-moting reliable and affordableaccess to energy.

NEXT QUESTIONSDo you think the Federal Re-serve’s decision to buy $40billion a month in mortgage-backed securities to cut bor-rowing costs for home buyersand other borrowers, andpledge to keep short-termrates near zero until at leastmid-2015 will help the econo-my? Why or why not?

Every week The North ClermontCommunity Journal asks readers aquestion they can reply to via e-mail.Send your answers toclermont@communitypress.com withChatroom in the subject line.

As we near the end of thissmog season, I reflected backon my experiences with theOhio-Kentucky-Indiana Region-al Council of Governments’Clean Air Program’s variousfestivals and fairs I attended.

One of the interesting as-pects of my involvement wasthe many questions I receivedfrom African Americans in-volving smog; its effects andwhat can be done to prevent it.This drove me to research ifany one race was more prone tothe most prevalent ailment ofsmog, asthma.

According to the U.S. De-partment of Health and HumanServices’ Office of MinorityHealth, African Americans are30 percent more likely to haveasthma than non-Hispanicwhites. The three main reasonswhy more African Americanstend to be diagnosed with asth-ma: limited access to healthcare, structure of neighbor-hoods and environmental sta-tus.

According to a literaturereview about the Prevalence ofAsthma Disparities AmongstAfrican-American Children,limited access to health carewas their first conclusion in-volving this asthma problembecause of the lack of treatmentand available health care.

The studyalso contrib-uted this toThe NationalAsthma Educa-tion and Pre-vention Pro-gram guide-lines. Theseguidelines canbe misinter-preted because

the range of symptoms withinthe guidelines reflects only anarrow view of symptoms. Thisleads to miscommunicationbetween providers and patients.The lack of information anddirections provided can createawful consequences.

Social structure and neigh-borhoods is the next categoryrelating more cases of asthmato African Americans. Variousstudies show that income has ahuge impact on asthma but it isnot the only thing. Families wholive in low income and highcrime areas are afraid theirchildren may be harmed bygang or drug violence so chil-dren spend a disproportionateamount of time indoors.

Low income areas often haveolder and at times badly main-tained housing due to absenteelandlords. An impoverishedneighborhood with poor housingcreates a physical environment

that is high in allergens fromsmoke, dust mites, mold fromwater damage and pest.

With all these potential prob-lems, as children are growingup around them, they are moreprone to developing problemssuch as asthma. Children tendto breathe more rapidly be-cause their lungs aren’t fullydeveloped which make themsusceptible to respiratory prob-lems.

With all this being said, thereare things that can be done tohelp prevent respiratory issues.Here are some things you cando:

» Seek a primary physicianor get in touch with a conve-nient health center and attendregular check-ups. Every pa-tient is different and seeingyour doctor regularly will helpprovide a solution to your symp-toms.

» Exercise. Being over-weight is a strong contributor toasthma because it makes it hardto breathe. Staying in shape andeating well are two great thingsto keep you healthy.

» If you are a smoker, con-sider quitting. Smoke as well asenvironmental irritants likedust, pollen and mold; perfumeand feather beds can contributeto respiratory problems.

»Make sure your home

environment is free of irritatingsubstances such as dirt, chem-icals from aerosols, dust, stand-ing water and perfumes.

After you have your healthunder control, the next step is tohelp reduce your smog output.These practical actions willhelp decrease pollution andimprove the Tri-state region’sair quality:

» Fill up your vehicle after 8p.m. This limits the fumes beingreleased to be “baked” by thehot weather.

» If you have to drive, com-bine your trips while you’re out.

»Do not “jackrabbit” off theline at a green light.

»Keep your vehicle properlymaintained by getting regularoil changes.

» Spread the word.All of these tips are simple

enough to be done every day.Please be cautious of smog alertdays because that is when chil-dren, the elderly and peoplewith respiratory issues aremost prone to problems.

Asthma in African Americans

Loren KoehlerCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

As young people around theTristate and across the nationprepare this school year for therite of passage known as highschool graduation, take a mo-ment to think about the oneswho had to overcome incredibleodds to get there. In many fam-ilies, going to college is a given.Other teens have never knownan adult who finished highschool and chose to continuetheir education. To many, thatsends a less than positive mes-sage about the value of educa-tion.

As a volunteer with BigBrother Big Sisters of GreaterCincinnati, I’ve spent yearsmentoring Jamaysha. We metwhen she was 9 - wide-eyed andfull of spirit, but also a victim ofa world she didn’t create. Herfather died before she wasborn, she seldom sees her moth-er, her guardian passed awaywhen Jamaysha was 14, andshe’s been enrolled in five

school districts because ofconstantly having to move.

Through it all, as her BigSister, I have encouraged her tostay focused on her school andto take advantage of everyopportunity. My husband and Ilearned of the Upward Bound

program which assists firstgeneration college-bound stu-dents with tutoring, enrichmentactivities and developing lead-ership skills. Once she wasaccepted into Upward Bound,Jamaysha committed to and hasparticipated in the program forthe last four years. This in-volvement, and her hard work,has helped prepare her forcollege. In the Fall, she willattend Cincinnati State, study-ing culinary arts.

My Little Sister is graduat-ing from high school, one of thefewmembers of her family todo so. She ranks 34th in a classof 220 with a grade point aver-age of 3.13. She’s an inspiration.Not content to sit on the side-lines, and overcoming trans-portation issues, she found away to participate in severalextra-curricular activities andhold a job. She has learned thevalue and pleasure of givingback to the community and we

have volunteered together atcharity events. I believe Ja-maysha will someday be anincredible mentor herself.

I am not Jamaysha’s onlymentor and join teachers pastand present, our Big BrothersBig Sisters case manager, thedirector of Upward Bound,Jamaysha’s family and others incongratulating her and all theother young people who areovercoming circumstances tofind success.

As adults, we have a respon-sibility to the young people inour community. The mission ofBig Brothers Big Sisters ofGreater Cincinnati is to helpchildren become successful inschool and in life.

Consider becoming a mentortoday.

tops of themapletrees havesplashes ofred, orangeand yellow.And thismorningwhen Iwent outfor a bikeride, I gotno farther

than the bend in the roadwhen I had to turn aroundand change from a T-shirtto a sweatshirt.

Are you ready for fall?I’m not sure I am, but it’scoming nonetheless. Ourfarmer neighbor, Ed Klu-ba, predicts frost in thenext couple of weeks.That’s according to theOld Farmer’s Almanac, Edtold me. Fall is a perfecttime to start roastingdinner in the oven insteadof turning on the grill.

Roasted chickenwith Greek herbs

Sometimes I’ll use justbreasts and thighs. thehigh heat gives the chick-en an incredibly crispskin. This is one of those“hurry home” meals.Freshly ground peppermakes this a standoutdish. If you don’t have apeppermill, put it on yourwish list. Makes all thedifference in the world,and pepper has lots ofantioxidants. Ditto for theoregano, one of the most

healing herbs on the plan-et.

Power companiesaround the country arehearing from consumersconcerned about newSmart Meters being put onhomes.

They transmit yourhome’s electric usage, andsome fear the meters emitpotentially harmful radia-tion. Studies show that’snot the case, but now thesome people are question-ing the studies.

Mike Mannarino, ofAnderson Township, isn’tconcerned about that, he’stroubled about possiblespying. “It’s a surveillancedevice essentially becausethey can tell what actuallytakes place inside thehome,” he said.

The Smart Meters dorecord the electricityusage in your home everyfew seconds and transmitthe information to a termi-nal. Mannarino said thatinformation can be used todetermine whether you’reusing enough energy-efficient devices in yourhome.

“It’s gradually intru-sive: A little bit today. Ithink there’ll be moretomorrow and, frankly, Idon’t feel they need thatinformation,” Mannarinosaid.

ButDuke Ener-gy spokes-womanSally The-len refutesthis. “Thisis com-pletely nottrue. I cantell you,Howard,

the only thing we’re get-ting from these meters ishowmuch electricityyou’re using. We don’tknow what appliances arebeing used. We don’t knowanything specific at all,”Thelen said.

Nevertheless, Mannari-no said, “If they determineyou’re not doing the thingsthey think you should, Isee in the future wherethey could charge you ahigher rate.”

“There is no way thatsomebody’s monitoringthe usage all the time.There’s a lot of fallacy outthere on the Internet,”Thelen said. She said thereis no large room wheresomeone is monitoring theusage in each house. In-stead, she said, the dailyreadings just go into bigcomputer servers.

Thelen said Duke is 75percent complete in mod-

ernizing its grid withthese digital meters. Sincethese meters transmit theusage, she said the compa-ny figures there will befar fewer estimated bills.When the upgrade is com-plete at the end of nextyear Duke can re-routeelectricity if there’s apower outage in an area.In addition, there could be“time of use pricing.” Thisallows customers to savemoney by, for instance,doing their wash at nightwhen electric rates arereduced.

In the meantime, those

with these Smart Meterscan go online to Duke’swebsite and check theirusage. The meters captureenergy usage daily andthat’s available to custom-ers the next day. Dukesaid this can help custom-ers make wiser energydecisions and avoid billingsurprises at the end of themonth.

Howdy Folks;Last week Ruth Ann

put celery we raised in thefreezer for winter to cookwith. A neighbor gave usthe plants this spring. Wehad never raised celerybefore, but will again nextyear.

A young lady from theSenior Citizens Center,called a couple weeks agoand asked if I would comeand talk to the seniors onetime a month. Ruth Annand I went Sept. 11 andspoke to these folks thereat the Adult Day Center.There were more than 50people there. It is so spe-cial for us to be with thesefolks. They have so muchto contribute if folkswould just listen – theyhave raised a family, dealtwith the world issues andbeen helpful to theirneighbors.

The room they meet inis called the Lodge; it isalso used for meetings,dinners, receptions, etc ...

it is beauti-ful with abig fire-place, sostop andtake a look.If you havean eventcoming upyou canrent it.

I hopeyou read the Enquirer,Sept. 16. On the front pagewas a story about a fellerwith Down syndrome. Hewas the bat boy for theReds ball team. Folks, thatreally touched me. Thesefolks have so much love toshare and can be so help-ful if given a chance. TheCincinnati Reds folks areto be thanked for giving“Ted” this oppurtunity.The players, I am sure, gotmore out of this than Teddid. The club needs to dothis more often. There area lot of young folks whowould like to have thisopportunity. Thanks Reds,

from the Ole Fisherman.The Bethel Lions Club

went to Bethel Woods tofurnish the folks a supperand the Club men madecakes to be judged by theresidents. This is a specialtime for the club to sharean evening with thesefolks and enjoy their com-pany. There is so much wecan learn from them – andthe thanks and beautifulsmiles we get.

Ruth Ann and I haveknown several of thesefolks and when we seethem it is a time for somehugs and hellos. The Be-thel Woods is a specialcommunity.

The winners of thecake contest were: firstplace, Ken; second place,Jim, and third place, an-other Jim. The folks sureenjoy all the food. We tooka walnut sheet cake. Thefolks keep an eye on whobrings what cakes.

The meal was preparedand served by Diane, from

the Kate’s Carryout. Thisyoung lady caters themeal for the Lions Clubmeetings and has for sev-eral years and does a su-per job. The folks at Be-thel Woods always ask ifDiane is going to furnishthe food. They are so hap-py when they learn she isdoing it.

We went ot Felicity tothe ARCO wood productsand got a bunch of dowelrods to build log birdhouses and little wheeel-barrows to set flower potsin. There is so much to usethese dowell rods for.They range from10 to 18inches long and are madeout of Oak.

They have a large pileof these rejected rods thatthey can’t use. Thesemake a great fire andwould produce fine heat.They are there for you toget, no cost. Just ask at theoffice about getting them.T owners are so nice.

Last week Ruth Ann

and I went fishing andcaught some fine 10-11inch crappie. When I tiedup the pontoon I put aminnow on Ruth Ann’shook, she dropped it in thewater. I turned to get mypole, she caught a bigcrappie. I put anotherminnow on for her, shedropped it down, I turnedto get my pole, she landedanother big crappie. I putthat fish in the live wellwith the other one, putanother minnow on herhook, she dropped the baitback in the water, I turnedto get my pole, she landedanother big crappie. So Ithought I might as welljust bait her hook.

Well, I finally got tofish and we caught a nicebunch of crappie, andsome bluegill and a couplesmall channel catfish,which we put back into thelake. We went to GrantsFarm to get some corn, soRuth Ann fried up somecrappie to give to Dannie.

He likes Crappie. We gavesome to his wife a weekbefore; she ate the fish, soDanny got some last week.

We got a call from alady that they are having adog parade Saturday, Sept.22, at Stonelick Lake, andasked if I would be one ofthe judges, so in the nextarticle I will tell who wasthe winning dog.

Mark your calendar foroct. 5 for the Bethel-TateHomecoming parade. Thiswill be a long parade. TheBethel Lions Club will bein it, on a trailer pulled bya tractor, driven andowned by Ken.

Start your week bygoing to the house of wor-ship of your choice andpraise the Good Lord. GodBless All. More Later.
