Sharonville City Council willconsider whether to shut downits health department after thecity’s mayor has recommendedthat services be contractedthrough Hamilton County Pub-lic Health.

Mayor Kevin Hardman pre-sented information, along withhis recommendation, duringCouncil’s Sept. 30 meeting.

Sharonville City Council willdecide whether to switch itshealth services to HamiltonCounty Public Health throughlegislation that has brought de-bate to thecity thathasstaffedahealth department for 50 years.

The debate began in theJune, when Health Commis-sioner Dennis Propes an-nounced his resignation, thenleft his position in August. Thattransitioncreatedanopportuni-ty to examine whether the cityshould continue to staff the de-partment, according to MayorKevin Hardman.

Closure of the health depart-ment would eliminate at leastthree jobs and save the city$230,000 each year.

If the city contracts withHamilton County Public Healthfor services several areas ofservice currently offered to

residents won’t be included.They include tall grass and

weed inspections, nursing ser-vices, the Christmas fund andfood pantry and the Children’sHealth Fair. Those serviceswould be covered through out-side contracts or by consolidat-ing duties.

It wasn’t so simple for manyresidents of Sharonville, how-ever. They envision the loss ofvaluable services to individualsand businesses, and want CityCouncil to keep it intact.

Several residents attended arecent City Council meeting,making their case to maintain ahealth department in Sharon-ville. Board of Health memberTim Schmidt addressed CityCouncil at the meeting, ques-tioning whether the city is suf-feringfinancial constraints thatwouldnecessitateclosureof the

Clock is tickingfor Sharonvillehealth departmentBy Kelly [email protected] Healthy Debate

See HEALTH, Page A2A group of freshmen at

PrincetonHigh School are put-ting theory into practice with aproject that incorporates les-sons in science, technology, en-gineering and math, and putsthem to the test.

Their task: design and buildthe arm of a crane and test it tosee how much weight it canwithstand.

Eighty-six students are par-ticipating in the program thatuses concepts of STEM, or sci-ence, technology, engineeringand math. Teachers collabo-rate, to tie in academic lessonstoward a common project.

The project goal was to con-struct the arm of a crane, andtest it to see how much weightit could support. To accomplishthe task, studentsstudiedrelat-ed concepts and tied them to-gether in Brian Lien’s STEM1class:

» Science: Students studiedhow wood breaks, learningconcepts of compression, ten-sion, and what kinds of wood

are stronger than others.» Technology: Students

brainstormed, and createddrawings of their cranes. Theychose their best mechanicaldrawing to use in their pro-jects.

» Engineering: Students de-signed their crane arms, orbooms, using the drawings tobuild the structure.

»Math: Students studiedthe Pythagorean theorem, cal-culating the length of the trian-

gle’s hypotenuse to determineif theyhadenoughwoodfor theproject.As inreal-lifeprojects,resources are finite and theyhad to work within the bound-aries of their supplies. If theydidn’t have enough, itwas backto square one, to recalculate.

Throughout the project, stu-dents kept journals, trackingtheir process and progress.This incorporated the arts,bringing English into the pro-gram and creating STEAM.

“They’re learning that all oftheir classes are connected,”saidLien,whoteachesthetech-nology and engineering por-tion. “It’s not just amath or sci-ence or English class.

“This tells students: ‘I’m inschool and school meansthey’re all connected,’” he said.“They can see how whatthey’re doing in science is re-lated to English and related tomath.”

“It was a torsionbreak,” Morgan said, de-scribing the twisting mo-tion that broke the arm.Some other boomssheared, snapping where

the arm met the crane’stower.

The students deter-mined that the boombroke because the gluewasn’t strong enough tohold the wood together.

The lesson didn’t endthere. Students will recal-culate, rebuild and retesttheir booms next week.

“They have to evaluatewhere it broke and why,”Lien said. “Once theyknow, they do a redesignand will build one morecrane arm.

“I wanted them to seehow to make it better,” hesaid. “They see that yourproject isnevercomplete.It can always improve.

“Now they will gothrough the project againand break it again.”

“During this wholeprocedure the boardmembers of the board ofhealth have been exclud-ed,” Schmidt said. “Wedon’t find out until the lastminute ... I think it wouldbe a terrible mistake toget rid of the health de-partment.”

Resident Ray Dyerspoke on behalf of thecity’s Christmas fund andfood pantry, expressingthe needs they meet andthe void they would leaveif closed, though Hard-man clarified that thisprogramwould continue.

Dyer also emphasizedthe need for on-site nurs-ing services.

“There will be a nurse

devoted to Sharonville toprovidesomeof thoseser-vices,” Hardman said oflimited services the citywould continue to provideif Sharonville contractswith Hamilton County.

Michael Carlson, aPrinceton High Schoolstudent and resident ofSharonville, said Sharon-ville health services mayhave saved his father’slife.

“I feel it would be a to-tal blow to lose the healthdepartment. I’ve been go-ing there my entire life.Last year, they helped dothe cancer screening.They helped catch mydad’s cancer,” he said.

City Council wasscheduled to hold a sec-ond reading of the ordi-nance on Nov. 18. A thirdreading on Dec. 16 will befollowed by a vote onwhether to contract withHamilton County forhealth department ser-vices.

While the holidaysseem to raise awarenessfor the public of the needsof local food pantries, vol-unteers at the MountHealthy Alliance FoodPantry have seen first-hand that the needs of thecommunity’s hungry arestrong year-round.

Pantry Director KathyLorenz says the numberof clients served at thepantry continues to grow,

asdoes theamountof foodbeing distributed. Lastmonth, more than 500families applied for andreceived help at the pan-try. So far in November,286 have been served.

She said for some fam-ilies in the communities,it’s desperate.

The Assumption St.Vincent de Paul Societyoperates from the Alli-ance Pantry as well, andassists with clothingvouchers and utilitieswhen possible.

How can the communi-ty help?Volunteers are al-ways needed. One canwork any day or time thepantry isopen.Thepantryis open Monday, Tuesday,Thursday, and Saturday.Call 551-8036. Ask for

Kathy or Joyce.Donations are another

way the community canhelp. The Alliance Pantyis always in need ofcanned vegetables, fruit,protein suchasmeat, fish,beans, and peanut butter.

During the holidays –Thanksgiving and Christ-mas – the pantry providesfamilies with food for aholidaymeal. Lorenz saysthe pantry would be un-able to battle hunger inthe community withouthelp from residents.

“We can’t solve theproblem.Peoplecancomeonce a month,” she said.“We are filling in, not sus-taining. But we are doingsomething.”

And that’s better thannothing.

Alliance Food Pantry seesrising demand for servicesBy Jennie [email protected]

NOVEMBER 19, 2014 • TRI-COUNTY PRESS • A3NEWS

As this column goes toprint, the weather gurusare predicting our springand summer weather ison the wane.

Nevertheless, nature’spalette was out in fullforce the day I met Jean-nie, Charlie and GregPugh of Sharonville.Some plants stubbornlyheld on to their summercolor in spite of frostynights, and Jeannie’sstory reminded me of thesame kind of stick-to-itiveness.

Charlie’s cup runnethover with pride about hiswife, who has been inbusiness for 44 years,and still going strongwith the help of their son,Greg. Charlie recountedhow on two separateoccasions Jeannie re-fused to let a broken legkeep her fromworking ather beauty salon. Bothtimes she told the doctorto apply the cast so thatshe could sit on a highstool to style hair thatanother stylist had sham-pooed. A broken wristdidn’t stop her from go-ing back to work, or on along planned cruise. Youshould have seen Char-lie’s smile as he spoke ofpeople showering herand her wrist with beadsduringMardi Gras inNew Orleans.

Jeannie opened herfirst salon in Sharonvillein 1970, two years beforeHelen Reddy sang “I AmWoman.” The site hadformerly been a barber-shop. Jeannie renovatedthe Main Street locationto accommodate women

who wereher pri-mary salonguests. Shehad twowork sta-tions andstylingchairs forherself andan addi-tional styl-ist.

Twoyears later she relocatedto 11051Reading Roadjust south of the postoffice. The name of thebusiness changed fromJeannie’s Beauty Salon toJeannie’s Hair “A” Fair.She moved downstairs inthe same building in1987, renaming the salonHair Spectrum.

In 1989, eldest sonGreg became her go-to-person for the imagingmachine that allowedpatrons to try differentstyles on the computerbefore the beauticiansstarted working theirmagic. Greg liked theindustry so well, he wentto beauty college andbecame a licensed stylist.After Greg worked as anemployee for a numberof years, Jeannie decidedhe should take over theday-to-day operation. Itwas a very smart move.

In 2012 Jeannie andGreg decided to pur-chase a franchise withthem as equal partners,and Lunatic Fringe Salonwas born. Six months ofremodeling produced alovely décor in the samelocation where Jeannie,Greg and their staff skill-

fully provide the best inbeauty care.

Jeannie has picked upguests at their homes,styled their hair at thesalon, and then driventhem back home. Shetells everyone, “I don’t goto work, I go to visit myfriends.” What a greatasset Jeannie has been tothe community, sponsor-ing ball teams, volun-teering and making sureher guests are taken careof. Hats off to her andGreg for making thisfamily business a suc-cess.

Charlie owns Paceset-ter Data, and is a soft-ware consultant whoinstalls software andinstructs people in Quik-Books. You never knowwhere love will happen.Tennessee born Charliewas fresh from theMa-rine Corp, when he wentfrom Camp Lejeune toSylacauga, Alabama towork with his brother-in-law. Jeannie came fromNorth Dakota to Sylacau-ga to work in a beautysalon with a friend fromhome. They briefly spoketo each other at the DairyQueen, but when Cupidshot his arrow, that meet-ing turned into a 46-year-old marriage, and a lov-ing home in Sharonvillefor 40 years.

DAYTON — Playing at theUniversity of Dayton’s Wel-come Stadium for the thirdstraight year, the MoellerCrusaders advanced again,beating previously undefeat-ed Pickerington Central 21-13.

Senior Matt Crable hadthree touchdown passes, in-cluding a pair to senior tightend Doug Bates in the firsthalf. On the ground, sopho-more Hunter Hughes collect-ed 159 yards on 42 carries.

“The last two games, Doug(Bates) has been spectacu-lar,” Moeller coach John Ro-denberg said. “I think peopleare trying to shut down Haus(junior Jake Hausmann)which is good because we’vegot a lot of confidence inDougand we can go wherever weneed to go. Matt (Crable) hadsome good composure to-night.”

Moeller is now10-0 all-timeagainst Ohio Capital Confer-ence teams. They defeatedPickerington North 21-6 tostart the season. They lastplayed Pickerington Centralin 2011 in the Skyline ChiliCrosstown Showdown (win-ning 14-0).

Midway through the firstquarter, Moeller got on boardfirst Crable found Bates openin the back of the end zonefrom eight yards out.

Pickerington Centralwould try to knot the score byquarter’s end when they re-covered a fumble on theMoeller 35-yard-line. SeniorMatt Martello threw 40 yardsto seniorEric Johnson, but theextra point sailed wide andthe Crusaders led 7-6 afterone frame.

At the 8:47mark of the sec-ond quarter, Crable checkedin with Bates again from fiveyards away as Moeller took a14-6 lead into the break.

Moeller’s reliable kickerMatt Coghlin missed longshots from 48 and 54 yards inthe game, but connected on a36-yarder late in the thirdquarter. However, Moeller’sRodenberg took the points offthe board after a roughing thekicker call. Shortly after, Cra-ble rewarded the decision byfinding junior Kyle Butz in

the end zone from four yardsto make it a 21-6 game.

PickeringtonCentralmadeseveral threats in the fourthquarter. Eric Johnson re-turned a punt 75 yards, but itcame back on a holding call.Senior Noah Able then had aninterception and senior Chris-tian Wersel added another afewminutes later asMoeller’sdefense kept delivering.

The Tigers finally crossedthe linewith 2:51remaining asMatt Martello ran in from theeight after Pickerington Cen-tral gained extra life on a passinterference call.

Martello would have onemore shot to lead his team inthe final minute, but the Cru-saders’ defense held for Cra-ble and company to go out andtake the victory knee.Moellertakes on St. Xavier on Satur-day night.

“You always hate to play Xtwice, but we’re just happy tobe there,” Rodenberg said.

Moeller won the regularseason meeting Sept. 26, 13-6.

PLAYER OF THE GAME: Ju-nior tight end JakeHausmanngets a lot of the Moeller ink,but senior University of Cin-cinnati commit Doug Batescaught a pair of scoringpasses in the first half.

PLAY OF THE GAME: Withthe score 7-6 at 8:47 of the sec-ond quarter, Crable hit Batesin the numbers for a secondtime as Moeller went up 14-6.It proved to be the game-win-ning score.

MONROE — Known for lead-ing the Greater CatholicLeague-Coed in rushing, Altersenior quarterback DustyHayes went to the air to beatWyoming Nov. 14 with threefirst-half touchdown tosses.Hayes was 7-for-8 passing for186 yards as the Knights pre-vailed 42-28 in round two of theDivision IV playoffs.

With the Cowboys keying onHayes and the run, he showedanother dimension by findinghis Knight teammates repeat-edly open. Eventually, the runswould open upwithHayes gain-ing 136 yards to surpass the1,500 mark on the season.

“We put in some new passplays this week,” Hayes said.“We knew they were going tokeyontherun.Wedidagoodjobof scheming them and got thejob done.”

Wyoming,whowasalsoelim-inated by Alter last season, putup a valiant effort despite a ros-ter of 48 players against the 82Knights listed in the program.Twice in the second half, theCowboys pulled within a touch-down.

“Our guys just fight,” Cow-boys coach Aaron Hancocksaid. “They fought the wholegame.”

With his first pass of thegame, Hayes hit senior ChrisFinke from 40 yards out for thefirst score of the gameat 5:27 ofthe first quarter. The Knightswere driving for another scoreearly, but Wyoming’s Ken Lar-kin came up with a fumble tosnuff out the drive at the 20.

The Cowboys got on theboard in the second quarterwhen Andrew Marty’s pass toOliver Reinecke took Wyomingto the two-yard line whereMar-ty plowed in to tie the game.

Hayes, who was held incheck on the ground early, thenwent to the air again. After go-ing down the middle to seniorDillon Daxe, he found seniorMarcO’Nealalone in themiddleof the second quarter to take a14-7 lead.

Wyomingwasable to stopAl-ter in the red zone after theKnights recovered a fumble,

butapuntbyMasonRogerswasreturnedbyFinke47yards foratouchdown with 1:24 left in thehalf.

Rogers returned the favorwith a long punt return of hisown, then Marty hit Reineckewith 1:05 left in the half to pullwithin a touchdown at 21-14.

As the shootout continued,Alter was able to come rightbackandwith :29 left in thehalf,Hayes had another scoringpassto Aaron Pack to go into thebreak up 28-14.

Trying to grab back momen-tum, Mason Rogers took thesecond half kickoff 98 yards topayday andWyomingwasdown28-21. However, the Knights in-creased the cushionwithHayesrunning in from three yards outto put the score at 35-21.

In the final stanza, the Cow-boys reached scoring territoryagain early in the frame, but

senior Dean Lemon squeezedout Wyoming’s chances with asack of Marty.

From there, the Knightswere able to complete a latefourth down to keep chewingthe clock. Hayes then ran to theone-yard line and Pack went infor his second score tomake forthe 42-28 final.

Andrew Marty was held to 6of 21passing, but threewent fortouchdowns. He returns, as doall-purposeweaponMasonRog-ers, running back JustinShields, receiverJakeEdmondsandTuckerBergerandKenLar-kin on defense, just to name afew. Wyoming loses just eightseniors.

“I’mveryproudofourguys,”Hancock said. “They (Alter) area good football team. We justran out of time. I couldn’t behappier for our seniors theyway they fought.”

Teammate Grace Schneiderplayed in the Senior Showcase and was named second team All-District.

ROSELAWN — Thoughhe used to be in awe of it,riding a Zamboni on theice is like someone elsemowing the yard on theJohn Deere for MoellerHighSchoolhockeycoachMike Reeder.

While many Cincin-natians curse the coldweather, Reeder em-braces it as signals thestart of hockey season.He’s now in his 12th yearas coach of the Crusaderswho play their homegames in the legendaryCincinnati Gardens.

The ice in the old barnoff of Seymour Avenueglistens. If the woodenseats could talk theywould spin tales of prizefights, the NBA Royals,both UC and Xavier, thecircus, the Beatles andseveral hockey teams.

Moeller is just one ofthe local squads that usethe facility; the homeaway from home for“SnowMiser” Reeder.

“It’s full circle here,”Reeder said chuckling. “Igrewupplayinghockey inthis building and now I’mcoaching. It’s a lot of fun.”

Even though last yearwas a rare losing seasonfor Moeller (4-13, fifthplace) the coach and play-ers know that it camefrom top notch competi-tion.Most of the area highschools play in the South-west Ohio School HockeyLeague;Moeller plays outof the Columbus-basedCapital Hockey Confer-ence.

“There’s a lot of goodguys up there,” fourth-year player Jake Fesselsaid. “Going up north isgood for us.”

Since the addition ofthe Columbus Bluejack-ets to the NHL, the city’slove for hockey has ex-ploded. It’s notquite at the“Kool-Aid”-level of OhioState football, but it isgrowing.

“There’s 5,000 kidsplaying hockey in Colum-bus now,” Reeder said.

Moeller competes inthe White Division withUpperArlington,St.Fran-cis DeSales and GahannaLincoln. TheRedDivisionfeatures Olentangy Or-ange, Dublin Jerome,Olentangy Liberty, Dub-lin Coffman and St.Charles. The Blue hasBishop Watterson, Wor-thington Kilbourne, Olen-tangy, Thomas Worthing-ton and Dublin Scioto.

“I thinkwehaveanout-standing team this year,but we have some inexpe-rience in key positions,”Reeder said. “Every yearsomebody graduates andsomeonealwayscomesupand takes their spot.”

Returning starters forthe Crusaders are Fessel,

Ben Sattler, Drew De-noyer, Tony LeBarge,Alec Gabel, Charlie Kres-ja, Devin DeGroft, OwenBayer and Braeden Bow-ra.

Many of the playersare on skates year round.Others dabble in lacrosseand one Crusader alreadyhas a championship tro-phy this school year inBen Sattler. He was onMoeller’s Division Ichampionship golf teamand thinks winning anoth-eronthe ice isn’toutof therealm of possibility.

“Why not us?” Sattlerasked. “That’s the samemottoweused for the golfseason. Someonehas to doit.Wehave a lot ofwork todo before we can thinkabout that, but we defi-nitely can.”

Reeder is looking for-ward to mixing in sometalented freshmen withhis veterans and hopes toget a better look at hissquad when they travel toNotre Dame over theThanksgiving holiday.

“That’s a fun tourna-ment and great environ-ment,” Reeder said.“There’s college gamesgoing on and they make ita great time for every-one.”

Their Gardens openeris Dec. 6 against DublinCoffman.

To attract teachers of thehighest quality schools mustincrease entry level salaries.

Themost influential factorin any classroom is not thecommon core standards. Noris it the burden of tests. It isthe teacher. For one schoolyear each teacher is the pri-mary education influence inevery child’s life.

Henry Adams once said, “Ateacher affects eternity; hecan never tell where his influ-ence stops.” Anyone who hasever attended a class reunionis quickly reminded of theimpact teachers had on his/herlife.

If the teacher is themostimportant factor in everyclassroom, then the quality ofexperience between the teach-er and student must be ofprimary importance.

In today’s world of educa-tion the the rising number ofretirees is creating an in-creased demand from a de-creasing pool of prospectiveteacher replacements at allgrade levels and fields ofstudy.With somany otherprofessions competing fortalented college graduates,schools can no longer count ona pool of high quality candi-dates to fill vacant positions.

Stagnant or decreasingrevenues have diminished theability formany school dis-tricts to compete with other

professions interms of at-tracting thebest andbrightest can-didates intotheir class-rooms. Forexample, justthis pastmonth thestream ofrevenue had

become so limited in Philadel-phia’s public school system,the board of education wasforced to arbitrarily suspendthe payment of benefits notrequired by state or federallaw.

Many university studentswho know they will leaveschool with sizable debt aregoing to forgo a professionwith average starting salariesas low as $35,000 per per yearand opt for career that hashigher financial rewards.

Although this problem isnational in scope, states andlocal districts can and shouldwork in unison to createmoredesirable salary and benefitincentives for college gradu-ates to pursue teaching.

First, traditional salaryschedules should be revised bylocal district bargaining teamsto incorporate a single salaryfor a four to five year periodrather than the current singleyear steps.

For example, a guaranteedannual salary of $45,000, afigure $10,000 belowOhio’smedian teachers’ salary, forfour years would bemorecompetitive for entry levelpositions than first year sala-ries offered today. After ateacher completes the fourthyear, he/she wouldmove to thenegotiated traditional salaryschedule.

Second, in certain special-ized fields of study likemathand science that have excep-tionally low numbers of qual-ifying candidates, the stateshould identify the specificcritical fields, then supplementbase salaries with four yearrenewable grants. This suppor-tive action from the state re-moves a very sensitive itemfrom a local district’s negotia-tions’ table, while fulfilling aneed to give Ohio’s studentsthe quality of education inthese fields needed to preparefor college and future employ-ment.

Increasing entry level sala-ries is not the only thing localboards of education and statesneed to consider to attract thebest and the brightest in thefield of education, but it iscertainly amajor step in theright direction.

November is Diabetic EyeDisease Month and through-out the month there will beawareness campaigns high-lighting the risks, preventionmethods and management ofdiabetes and diabetic eyedisease. Gathering this in-formation can help you totake control of your overallhealth, as well as your eyehealth.

According to the Centersfor Disease Control and Pre-vention, approximately 29million Americans age 20 orolder have diabetes. As obe-sity rates in the UnitedStates increase, so do thenumber of Americans whoare at risk to develop diabe-tes.

The doctors at CincinnatiEye Institute see diabeticpatients on a daily basis, andwe work with them to pre-vent and manage their dia-betic eye disease. Anyonewith type 1 or type 2 diabetesis at risk of developing aform of eye disease, whichincludes diabetic retinopa-thy, cataracts and glaucoma.In fact, those with diabetesare 40 percent more likely tosuffer from glaucoma, and60 percent more likely todevelop cataracts than peo-ple without diabetes.

At Cincinnati Eye Insti-tute, we encourage patientsto take a proactive role intheir eye health. The mostimportant thing you can do toprotect your vision is to re-ceive an annual comprehen-sive dilated eye exam byyour optometrist. This is theonly way to detect diabeticretinopathy, and is key toearly detection and the pre-vention of vision loss.

Why don’t more diabeticpatients know the risks ofeye disease? Unfortunately,it is uncommon to havesymptoms in the early stagesof diabetic retinopathy inparticular. This means thatoften, patients don’t realizethey have a problem untilvision loss occurs and at thatpoint the damage is some-times irreversible.

If you do notice symptomsincluding blurred vision,

floaters, fluc-tuating vi-sion, dark orempty areasin your vision,or vision loss,you shouldcall your eyedoctor as soonas possible.The earlierdiabetic eyedisease is

detected, the better chanceyour vision can be improvedor restored.

The most common form ofdiabetic eye disease is dia-betic retinopathy. It affectsmore than 7.7 million Amer-icans ages 20-74, and is apotentially blinding condi-tion in which the blood ves-sels inside the retina becomedamaged from the high bloodsugar levels associated withdiabetes. This can lead to theleaking of fluids into theretina, and the obstruction ofblood flow, both of whichmay cause severe vision loss.

This is important to notebecause, as most diabeticpatients are aware, diet,exercise and lifestyle mod-ifications are all extremelyimportant to the manage-ment of diabetes. When notmanaged properly, or if undi-agnosed for a prolonged pe-riod, the disease can pro-gress, and can affect otherareas of your health, includ-ing the kidneys, the brain,and even the eyes. In fact,diabetes is the leading causeof preventable blindness inadults.

In the United States, only65 percent of diagnosed dia-betic patients receive anannual dilated eye exam. Ifyou’re part of the 35 percentof patients who do not, I en-courage you to call your eyedoctor to schedule your eyeexam, and get started on thepath to improving your eyehealth.

Dr. Kevin Corcoran is director ofoptometric services at CincinnatiEye Institute and clinical associateprofessor at Ohio State UniversityCollege of Optometry.

The Old Farmer’s Almanacand other prognosticators areagain predicting amuch cold-er, a more snowy and a verylong winter season.

Whether you believe inthese soothsayers, it is a goodidea to give some thought withpreparing for the upcomingseasonal change. Over theyears, I have picked up a fewideas that may be of interestto you.

FEMA, the Federal Emer-gencyManagement Agency,recommends you have onhand at least a three-day sup-ply of food and water for theobvious reason that rescuersprobably won’t get to you forthat long if we experience amajor emergency. This is goodplanning, but generally, ouremergencies are limited tosnow days with hungry chil-dren at home. If you are in-terest in what FEMA has tosay, check them out at Ready.gov.

Milk is one of those itemsfolks rush to get at the storebefore a snow storm hits.Here’s a simple and easy ideato eliminate that need: sayyour family uses a gallon ofmilk a week. The expirationdate onmilk is out about 14 to16 days. So if you buy twogallons ofmilk the next timeyou go to the store, and thengo back to buying one gallonofmilk a week from then on,and always using the oldestmilk first, you will alwayshave at least a week’s supplyof freshmilk. You can use thesame storage and rotationprocess for cereal, soups andother food stuffs you normallykeep at home.

Perishable fruits and vege-tables generally have a short-er shelf life than can goods, soadjust your process accord-ingly. Also, buy the items thefamily likes and normally uses– if they won’t eat it, why buyit?

Pharmacyneeds canalso becomean issuewhen inclem-ent weatherapproaches.Aspirin andother over-the-counteritems aregenerallyeasy to obtain

and can be purchase in suffi-cient quantities per containeras to not to run out during astorm. Prescriptions can be anissue if you can only get a30-day supply at a time andyou run out in themiddle of astorm.

Check with your healthcare provider or pharmacist tosee if you can obtain a “vaca-tion” prescription so that youcan set up a storage and rota-tion process for yourmedica-tions as with foodstuffs notedabove.

Have your service center“winterize” your vehicle, per-forming the preventativemaintenance to keep you safeand toasty. Youmaywant tokeep at least a half a tank of

gas in your vehicle all winterlong. Being stuck on an ex-presswaywithout gas during asnow or ice stormwouldn’t befun at best, and life threat-ening at worse. Additionally,waiting in line at a gas stationas the snow or ice falls is notmy idea of usingmy timewisely.

Theremay be some itemsyoumaywant to considerplacing in your vehicle thiswinter – extra gloves, scarvesandmaybe a coat, or anythingelse that might help you per-sonally if you get stuck some-where in a storm. I know ofsome folks who keep a smallshovel in the trunk of their caralong with their jumper cablesand tool box all winter.

Did Imention having extrabatteries at home, a crankradio with a cell phone char-ger, having your fireplacecleaned… good luck this win-ter!

Asmost of you know,cloning recipes is a hob-by of sorts of mine. Welltoday I’m sharing tworequested recipes whichhappen to be crazy pop-ular right now, and thebonus is that they areeasy enough for you tomake, too.

Cloning Starbucks’pumpkin spice lattestarted with a requestfrom colleague AnnieMitchell Egan of SacredHeart Radio. Annie lovesthe lattes at Starbucksand wanted to try herhand at cloning it. Shefound a recipe and sent itto me. I fiddled with itand came up with what Ithink is a very gooddrink. Not as rich asStarbucks, but prettydarned close. This wouldbe a nice offering toThanksgiving Day guestsas a welcoming beverageas they enter your homeor as a finale to the holi-day meal.

I’m also glad to helpout Amy L., who was“surprised and happy”that I had her favoriteFirst Watch restaurant’srecipe for their amazingpoppy seed dressing.

DIY pumpkin spicelatte like Starbucks

I believe Starbucks isusing a pumpkin typesauce or syrup to flavortheir latte and fromwhatI can determine, theydon’t use half & half likethis recipe does. Thesuccess of this drinkdepends upon the espres-so. Don’t use regularcoffee no matter how

strong.3-4 ta-

blespoonspumpkinpuree

3/4-1teaspoonpumpkinpie spice +extra forgarnish

Bit offreshly ground blackpepper - optional butgood

2 tablespoons sugar ormore to taste - next timeI think I'll try half white& half brown sugar

1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla1-1/2 - 2 cups half &

halfUp to 1 cup very

strong espresso or more,depending upon yourtaste - start with 1/4 cupand go from there

Whipped creamI just put everything

but espresso, extra spice& whipped cream in apan, brought it to a sim-mer and started whisk-ing.

You could also use ahand blender, hand mixeror regular blender.

It will get frothy, butthe froth dies down fairlyquickly.

I added espresso totaste and whisked again,then poured it into mugsand topped it withwhipped cream and morepumpkin pie spice.

Poppy seed dressingMy version of First

Watch’s poppy seeddressing For Amy L.,who enjoyed eating thisat the restaurant and

wants to entertain holi-day guests at home withit.

Dressing for vegeta-ble salad: Go to taste oningredients here. You canalways add more.

Toss everything intoblender and blend untilsmooth:

1/4 cup fresh lemonjuice

1/3 cup cider vinegar)1-1/2 teaspoons dry

mustard1 tablespoon poppy

seed or more to tasteSalt to taste3/4 to 1 cup sugar1/4 cup minced onion

or to taste1-1/4 to 1-1/2 cups Cano-

la oilFruit salad dressing:

After you whisk in Cano-la oil, whisk in 1/2 cupsour cream. This makes acreamy dressing forfruit. Can you use plainyogurt? Yes, but thedressing won’t be quiteas creamy.

Vegetable salad: Mixtogether 2 cups eachdiced celery and zucchi-ni. Stir in 2-3 cups dicedtomatoes. (I like to add ahandful of shreddedcarrots).

Mix with smallamount of dressing andserve on bed of greens.

Or marinate the vegeta-bles ahead of time, ex-cept for the tomatoes.Stir those in last.

Fruit salad: Lay favor-ite bite-size pieces offruit on a bed of greens.Drizzle dressing over.

Readers want toknow how tomake:

Homemade vanillaand lemon extracts

I’ll be sharing thoserecipes soon for holidaygift giving.
