Green Twp. voters face renewallevy on November ballot
GREENTWP.—Voters will de-cide whether they want to re-new a tax levy supporting thepolice and fire departments.
Township officials are seek-ing the renewal of a 1.9-millsafety services levy on the Nov.5 ballot.
The five-year levy was firstapproved by township voters in2008.
Green Township TrusteeChairman Rocky Boiman said
it’s importantresidents knowthe levy is a re-newal of an exist-ing levy and itwill not raise tax-es.
It costs theowner of a homeworth $100,000
about $56 per year in propertytaxes. It generates roughly $2million annually for the policeand fire departments,with eachdepartment receiving about $1million.
Due to statecuts liketheelim-ination of the es-tate tax and re-ductions to the lo-cal governmentfund, Boimansaid the townshipis estimated tolose $2.5 million
to $3 million in revenue nextyear.
“All the cuts to local govern-ments are really beginning totake shape this year and next,”he said.
“This is a verycrucial levy forour police andfire departmentsso they have theresources andequipment theyneed to continueproviding excel-lent services to
our residents.”Green Township Fire & EMS
Chief Doug Witsken said thetownship asked for the levy fiveyears ago because the policeand fire departments saw a 55
percent increase in emergencyruns and calls for service in the10-year period from 1997 to2007, but staffing levels did notkeep up with the increase.

PRICE HILL — Two GreaterCatholic League rivals areteaming up to help feed thecommunity.
The Elder Mom’s Club willhost its annual collection drive
for the HolyFamily/St. Vin-cent de PaulFood Pantryduring the foot-ball game be-tween Elder andMoeller highschools Friday,Oct.11,at thePit.
Jen Dugan,president of the Elder Mom’sClub, said this is the seventhyear the club has partneredwith a rival GCL school to col-lect food and raise money forthe pantry. This year they areworking with the MoellerMoms’ Club.
“We usually alternate be-tween Moeller and St. Xavier,depending on Elder’s homefootball schedule,” she said.
“We typically have a goodresponse, however, the key isto get the other school activelyinvolved.”
Dugan said Lynda Mackey,president of the MoellerMoms’ Club, embraced theidea and is working closelywith other Moeller moms tospread the message.
“Weboth agree it’sOK to beGCL rivals on the field, butwhen it comes time to support-ing the community we’re GCL
strong,” Dugan said. “Togeth-er we can truly make a differ-ence.”
Moms will be at the gatesprior to the 7:30 p.m. gamecol-lecting donations of non-per-ishable items. Those whowould like to help can bringsuch food items as cannedfruit and vegetables, cereal,peanut butter, pasta andcannedmeat or tuna. Personalcare items like toothpaste,shampoo, soap and toilet pa-per, and baby diapers andwipes are also needed.
Monetary donations will beaccepted as well.
Moeller’s Mackey said thateven though the two schoolsare rivals, working together tohelp the community is not onlypositive for the young menthat attend each school, butalso reinforces the lessonsthey learn at school.
“In Catholic schools, socialjustice is an important subjecttaught to the boys,” she said.“Anything we can do to assistin someone’s cause shows theboys a positive example.”
The Holy Family/St. Vin-cent de Paul Food Pantry as-sisted nearly 2,000 families inJune, July and August. Thepantry served close to 6,000clients, of whom more than2,700 are children.
Dugan said the numbersare staggering when you lookat the statistics of how manyfamilies the pantry served, es-pecially the number of chil-dren.
“This is real life, and it’s in

ers around the clock atthe Dent fire station,which gives the depart-ment the ability to oper-ate a full ambulancecrew and a full fire truckcrew,Witsken said. Priorto having two crews, hesad if an ambulance orfire engine was out on arun, and another emer-gency call came in, therewere not enough staff torespond.
Green Township Po-lice Chief Bart West saidthe department uses thelevy funds to pay for sal-aries, benefits and thecosts of operating the de-partment. After the levypassed in 2008, the police
department hired fourofficers and added a pa-trol beat.
“Due to the cutbacksat the state level, we arein dire need of passingthis renewal levy,” Westsaid.
“We can’t afford tolose this levy. Itwould re-sult in serious cutbacks.”
Witsken said if the re-
newalwere to fail and thetownship loses an addi-tional $2 million in reve-nue, on top of all the statecuts, it would have a dev-astating affect on policeand fire services.
“It’s important to re-new this levy so we cancontinue to operate theway we currently arewith our belts tight.”

Elder High School stu-dents, along with mem-bers of the faculty andstaff, will take part in theschool’s 40th annual“Walk for Others” Mon-day, Oct. 14.
Every year since 1974Elder students and facul-ty have taken to thestreets of theWest Side toraise money for theschool’s tuition assistanceprogram and area chari-ties.

Students will make a12-mile trek through sev-
eral West Side neighbor-hoods, including PriceHill, Westwood, Cheviotand Green Township.
Elder Alumni DirectorBrian Bill said roughly 60percent of Elder studentsreceive some form of fi-nancial assistance, mak-ing the “Walk for Others”an important fundraiserfor the tuition assistanceprogram and enablingyoungmentoattendElderwho otherwise could notafford to do so.
Students begin collect-ing pledges from familymembers, neighbors,alumni and friends of theschool in late Septemberand finish up inmid-Octo-ber, he said.
The students under-stand the proceeds bene-fit others, and he said thewalk typically enjoys 100percent participation
from students and facul-ty.
“We’re teaching themwhat it’s like to be a goodmember of the communi-ty and to take care of ourneighbors,” he said.“That’s what this is allabout.”
Bill said 25 percent ofthemoney raised is donat-ed to area charitable or-

PRICE HILL — A groupof Elder High Schoolalumni inviteWestSidersto a party benefiting ascholarship fund at theiralma mater.
Members of the HankMueller Elder VeteransScholarship Fund com-mitteearehostinga fund-raiser from 10 a.m. to 4p.m. Sunday, Oct. 13, atJim & Jack’s, 3456 RiverRoad.
The “Pre-Game Bashand Fundraiser Party”will feature activities be-fore and during the Cin-cinnati Bengals game.The Bengals play the
Buffalo Bills at 1 p.m.“Hank has been a driv-
ing force among ourclassmates,” said PriceHill resident Tom Scan-lon, a1966Eldergraduatewho serves on the schol-arship committee.
“He’s such a positivespirit.”
Henry J. Mueller III,known as Hank, enlistedin the U.S. Marine Corpsafter graduating fromEl-der in 1966, and within ayear was shipped to Viet-nam. Thirty-three daysafter arriving there, hisunit was ambushed whiletrying to rescue otherMarines and a mortarround severely woundedhim. He was blinded and
suffered brain traumafrom the shrapnel.
Scanlon said duringthe15monthshespent re-covering at Bethesda Na-val Hospital outsideWashington, D.C., Elderstaff and students senthim prayers and a carepackage every month.The support from the El-der community wastransformational forMueller, and it gave himthe will and purpose tolive, Scanlon said.
Mueller,whonowlivesin Florida and works as alay minister, went on tograduate from college,marry, raise a family andserve as an agent forgood in his community.
Inspired by Mueller’sresolve, Scanlon saidmembers of the class of1966 established theHank Mueller scholar-ship about five years agoto honor him and all theother men from Elderwho served their coun-try. The scholarship pro-vides tuition assistanceto Elder studentswho aredescendants of militaryveterans.
“We just want to helpHank give back to ElderHigh School,” Scanlonsaid. “Hopefully we’redoing some good work.”
Mueller said he livedacross the street fromEl-der Stadium after hecame home from thewar,and he would often walkover the the emptyPit, siton the concrete grand-stands and look toward
the school.Even though he
couldn’t see the building,he said he could remem-ber the way it looked inhis mind and he thoughtof all themenwho gradu-ated before him.
“Whether they be-came police officers,firefighters, doctors,lawyers or medics, youknowtheyall carried thatElder spirit with themwhenever they went outinto the world,” he said.
“It’s a real blessing tobe a graduate of ElderHigh School.”
Mueller said he’sgrateful to his friends forthinking of him and nam-ing a scholarship afterhim, and he’s proud thefund gives other youngmen the opportunity toobtain the same founda-
tion he did as a teenager.“It’s a beautiful feel-
ing,” he said.Scanlon said the fund-
raising party will havegames and prizes, foodand a cash bar. Therewillbe several raffle draw-ings, including a $1,000cashprize raffle, abarbe-cue grill raffle and a two-hour helicopter ride raf-fle, he said.
The committee’s goalis to raise $10,000 for thescholarship fund, he said.
“Hank is an amazingrole model,” Scanlonsaid. “It’s a real privilegeto provide a vehicle forhim to give back to Elder,and we’re honored to doit.”

The Oak Hills High Schoolseniors had just collided insidethe 5-yard line and the crowdwatched their helmets pop offandwhisk through the air to the10-yard line as the two lay mo-tionless on the field. Both wereimmobilized and taken off thefield via stretcher and taken tothe hospital.
“I just remember waking upin the hospital and wonderingwhat happened,” Beamon saidbefore an Oct. 1 practice, nottwo weeks after the Sept. 20 in-cident. “I was trying to figure
out everything and then I wasmore worried about (Cary).”
The two best friends, whohaveknowneachothersince thefirst grade, were diagnosedwith mild concussions and Bea-mon was placed in a neck braceandwas initially told tobe ready

West Side golfers hit it downthe middle at sectionals
CINCINNATI — What a day itwas for the St. Xavier HighSchool golf team.
The Bombers set a newDivi-sion I southwest sectional tour-nament record after shooting ateam total of 285 at MiamiWhitewater Golf Course Oct. 2,breaking their previous recordof 291.
“When you’re playing golf asa team game everybody has tostay in it until the end becauseyou never know whose score isgoing to count,” St. X coachAlex Kepley said. “… It’s be-yondwords to have a 67 and two71s.”
The 4-under par 67 camefrom sophomore Kirran Mago-wan, who earned medalist hon-ors by four strokes over team-mates Matt Schiller and Bren-dan Keating.
“He is themost capable play-er of being able to do that on aconsistent basis,” Kepley saidof Magowan. “He’s had a tre-mendous number of goodrounds, but this one is special.”
Right behind the Bomberswere theOakHillsHighlanderswith a teamtotal of 305, just twostrokes off their course recordof 303.
“…Tosee thegrowthof thesekids is phenomenal,” Highland-er coach Aron Strine said. “Theconsistency has been great andit’s been a fantastic year so farand hopefully it continues.”
Senior Sam Meek finishedfourth overall with a 1-over par72. After shooting 38 on thefront nine, Meek was able toturn it up on the back nine andclosed with a 1-under 34.
“Once he really got the feeland had a few putts roll in forhim it gave him a lot of confi-dence,” Strine said.
After Fairfield finished witha total of 317, the final qualify-ing position came down to twofamiliar foes in Elder and LaSalle.
The Panthers were in theclubhouse with a 322, and aftera 163 team total on the frontnine, the Lancers came throughon thebackside. Four of the fiveLaSalle golfers turned in betterback-nine scores than they didon the front to give the Lancers
a154on theback fora teamtotalof 317 and a tie for third place tobumpthePanthers tofifthplaceand out of districts as a team.
“We didn’t have a great day,”Lancer coach Jon Feldkampsaid. “(On the) front nine weplayed terrible, came out tight,stiff, but once we loosened upwe got in a bit of a rhythm. Wesettled down and played muchbetter golf.”
All was not lost for the Pan-thers.
Despite not qualifying fordistricts as a team, sophomoresKurt Fortman (81) and DrewSchramm(78) alongwith seniorZach Bauer (81) qualified as in-dividuals.
As for the ladies, Mercy andOakHillsqualifiedasa teamfordistricts, while Seton’s CorrineDeutenbergshot an81atHamil-

SIDELINES
WESTWOOD — If thestars were aligned theGamble Montessori Ga-tors would be 4-1, not 1-4this season. A variety offactors, both on and offthe football field, havecontributed to the Gators’rough start.
For the first time inthree years the school isback in its original build-ing in Westwood and thetransition is still under-way.
“The locker room isn’tready and we just have somuch stuff going on it’shard to even think aboutthe whole football per-spective sometimes,”
coach Stan West said. “Ijust keep telling the guyswe are still youngthough.”
With a roster of just 22players, the Gators boastonly three seniors, butyouth means growingpains and mistakes andWest has seen too manymistakes that have led to acouple losses this season.
“Just bad snaps,missed tackles and the lit-tle things,” he said. “Thatcomesfromnothavingev-erybody here during two-a-days and when schoolstarted I had five or sixkidsthatcameinthatneedto get in the weight room.We have to change somethings around here.”
The one area thathasn’t been troubling hasbeen the offense. The Ga-tors have scored 20-pluspoints in four of their fivegames and are averaging25.2 points per game de-spite being shutout intheir season opener.
Leading West’s offenseis seniorweapon JavontaeLipscomb. The runningback/wide receiver/spe-cial teams specialist has10 total touchdowns on theseason, 472 rushingyards,
251 receiving yards and390 kick-return yards. Asa junior he put up morethan 1,100 rushing yardsandscored11touchdowns.
Junior Tim Andrews isin his second year playingquarterback after split-ting time at the positionlast season. Through fivegames he completing
nearly 55 percent of hispasses for 851 yards andnine touchdowns.
On the other side of theball is where the Gatorsfind themselves in trou-ble. The defense is givingupmore than39pointspergame and West knows hisyoung guys must step updown the stretch.

love shown to the duo inthe hours and days follow-ing the hit was inspiring.Both their Twitter ac-counts and cell phonesblew up with signs of loveand care, and it was some-thing that struck a deepnerve with Jones.
“I kind of joked with afew of my classmates andtold them I didn’t know Iwas that important to peo-ple,” the full safety said.“It made me feel so goodabout myself that peoplewere out there caring andshowing love for me andmy family as well as himand his family.”
What wasn’t so easywas telling their familiesthey were ready to takethe field again. Jones’ dadisn’tmuchofa football fanto begin with, while hismothershowedsomehesi-tationat firstbeforeyield-ing her trust back in herson. For Beamon, whocomes froma family of10,sawa littlemorebacklash.
“… All my little sisterswere like ‘you are not go-ing back out there. You’renot,’” the defensive backsaid. “My mom said if Icome to your games I’mgoing to watch it from theback of my hands.”
In the end, what was ascary accident has turnedinto a moment two bestfriends can now some-
what laugh and jokeabout.
“I tell him (I’m glad itwas you that I collidedwith) every day,” Beamonsaid. “I’m glad it was him
and not the Mason kid. …WithCary, he’ll joke aboutit and tellme toshutupbe-fore Iknockyououtagain.We’re able tomess aroundabout it a lot now.”

Candidate ready to face challengesFor the first time in nearly
30 years voters in Miami Town-ship will not see Trustee JoeSykes on their ballot.
Joe has set the standard forexcellence in local govern-ment, our community has ben-efitted greatly from his manyyears of service, and he will bemissed. Fortunately, TrusteePaul Beck is seeking re-elec-tion to one of the two availableseats.
I am a candidate for MiamiTownship trustee because Ibelieve I possess the experi-ence, knowledge and skillsnecessary to perform the du-ties of trustee at the highestlevel, and if elected, I will pro-vide a like-minded, stable andconsistent approach to thisimportant transition.
I am a 29-year resident of
Miami Town-ship, the own-er of a 38-year-old manu-facturing busi-ness, a mil-itary veteranand I havebeen activelyinvolved atboth the town-ship and coun-
ty level for more than 20 years.I serve on the township’s Fi-nancial Review Committee,and have served on our LandUse Committee since 1993.
I have represented thetownship on numerous region-al and countywide planningefforts, and have been a reli-able volunteer in many otherareas of our township govern-ment. I served for 13 years on
the Hamilton County ZoningCommission, served on theCounty Board of Zoning Ap-peals, and was a longtime di-rector and past president ofthe Western Economic Council.
As a result of my civic in-volvement, I have had a ratherunique opportunity to closelyobserve governments, largeand small, good and bad formany years. I believe thatMiami Township has been thebest governed township inHamilton County, and I amfully committed and preparedto seeing that continue.
Our residents enjoy a qual-ity of life that exceeds mostand is comparable to any inHamilton County. Excludingcountywide and local schoollevies, which the township hasno capacity to control, our
township millage totals 10.91,second lowest in HamiltonCounty.
With state cuts to the localgovernment fund, the repeal ofthe estate tax, and propertydevaluations, challenges exist.As a member of the TownshipFinancial Review Committeeand a business owner withnearly 40 years of experience,I believe I possess a blend ofskills that will serve our voterswell.
As chairman of both theHamilton County Zoning Com-mission and the HamiltonCounty Board of Zoning Ap-peals, I have conducted manyhighly controversial and emo-tionally charged public hear-ings. Win or lose, I believe thatthe participants would say thatthey were treated fairly, and
that the proceedings weretransparent and professional.Constituents deserve nothingless.
Susan and I have beenblessed with two wonderfulchildren, our health, a success-ful business, and a wonderfullife in a clean, safe, thrivingand well governed community.I have reached a point in mylife both personally and profes-sionally where I am fully pre-pared and willing to serve.
Miami Township has alwayschosen it’s trustees very wise-ly, and will do so again. I hum-bly ask for your considerationand I sincerely appreciate yoursupport.
Bob Polewski is a candidate forMiami Township trustee.

On Dec. 17, 1904, OrvilleandWilbur Wright shockedthe nation when they success-fully conducted an experi-mental flight at Kill DevilHill about four miles fromKitty Hawk, NC.
They had developed apractical flying machinecapable of taking off in allsorts of weather conditionsand flying to a predeterminedsight without crashing. It wasan accomplishment that start-ed America’s golden age ofaircraft.
Their little aircraft wasnine-feet high, 21-feet-one-inch long and had a wingspanof 40-feet-by-40-inches. Thewood, fabric and metal tubingplane weighed 605 pounds.The little airplane was in theair 12 seconds and flew 125feet. It was the first sustainedand controlled heavier-than-air powered flight in history.
As word spread around theworld, aircraft aeronauticalengineers in America andEurope begin to build theirown airplanes. Each day newfirst were happening as pilotsflew higher, faster and stayedin the air longer.
In 1911, the Post OfficeDepartment decided to give ita try. Flying was faster thantrucks and they started usingairplanes for airmail. Thenother businesses decided thatthey could move freightaround faster, and the air-plane took off. The militaryused the airplane for somereconnaissance flying andattacks duringWWI. But theyfelt the airplane’s instabilityand lack of control made it anunsuitable weapon.
However, the pilots thatflew the airplanes loved theadventure and kept flying.They performed stunts andtrick flying at places like theHamilton County Fairs andcarnivals. Lunken Airportopened in 1925 as a 1,000-acreairport, the largest in theworld at that time. They hadair shows. Asa Butterfieldafter being discharged fromthe army participated instunt flying. While flyingupside down in an air show atthe Boone County Airport hefell out of the open cockpitand landed unhurt on theriver bank.
Flyingbecame sopopular bythe end of theroaring ’20sthat Cincin-nati had manysmall air-ports. Therewas one inColerainTownship by
the Northgate Mall. GreenTownship had one East ofEbenezer and South ofBridgetown Road. The hang-er and runways of the FrankAirport contained 59 acrebetween Eyrich, North Glenand Coral Gables. The airporthad both north-south andeast-west grass runways.
At the grand opening in1929 the Spirit of St Louis,(Charles Lindbergh’s air-plane) and other aircraftperformed. Barnstormingand parachuting by the Trian-gle Parachute Club and pri-vate aircraft were the mainuser of the airport. John Do-berli, owner of an excavatingand road construction busi-ness from Sayler Park, was apilot and flew a four pas-senger Cesena 180. He wentto Michigan and broughtChristmas trees to sell. Heloved fishing and took fishingtrips with his friends.
It was once used a stagingarea during the 1937 floor forthe relief effort. Many of theroads to Indiana were flood-ed.
There never were anycommercial flights from theairport, and existing on itssmall income was difficultespecially during the depres-sion.
The name was changed toWestern Hills Airport in the1930s and to Cheviot in 1945.The final blow came withWWII. In 1945 all the pilotsand mechanics were calledaway to train pilots for WWII.The airport closed and the tophanger was taken to MiamiUniversity where it still istoday.

Oct. 2 questionCongresshaspassedanexemp-
tion from federal law to allow theDeltaQueentoonceagainoperateas an overnight passenger vessel.Wouldyoufeelsafeasapassengeron the Delta Queen? Why or whynot?
“I would feel safe aboard theDeltaQueenontheOhioandMis-sissippi rivers. Compare theDQ’s safety record versus theOcean-going Carnival cruise lin-ers with thousand of passengerson board. Granted the DQ iswood, but at least land is in site100percent of the timeand thereare not any Somali pirates (Indi-an Ocean), ice bergs (Titanic) orcowardly captains (Costa Con-cordia). Itwill begreat to see theDelta Queen back in the QueenCity at the NewBanks. Hopeful-ly The Belle of Louisville will behere to race the DQ again foropening day. I will look forwardto that overhead picture (from ablimp) and all the politiciansthere taking credit. They mayoutnumber the passengers. Gofigure!”
T.D.T.
“I would love to be a passen-gerontheDeltaQueenif thecostwasn't so exorbitant. I think it'sgreat that theDeltaQueen is stillin operation to remind us of ourpast mode of transportation thatdidn't involve cars.”
E.E.C.
“Iwould feelmore safeon theDelta Queen, for if were to sink,
at least you could swim to shore.If Iwere to ridewith the govern-ment, I think we just keep sink-ing and no way to be saved.”
D.J.
“Why not? The Delta Queenstill appears as a sound vessel,and I amcertainallmaintenanceis up to par according to mari-time and Coast Guard regula-tions. Yes, I would love to take atrip on this historic boat.”
O.H.R.
“What part of wooden super-structure ships not being safefor overnight passengers don'twe understand? This regulationwas put in place for a good rea-son. Sentimentality is not a rea-sonable justification to risk peo-ple's lives.”
F.S.D.
“I would feel very safe on theDelta Queen. This boat has beenalongtraditionontheOhioRiverand a true spirit for the city ofCincinnati. The company that
owns the Queen has taken verygood care of it.
Ed Seurkamp
“I remember this same battlebeing waged over 40 years agoand several times in the interim.IhavenoideawhyCongresscan-not resolve this matter once andfor all.
“I would love the opportunityto take a lengthy cruise on theQueen, confident the crew iswell-trained and the boat isequipped with adequate safetygear.
“The whole issue in the pastwas the wooden hull of this ves-sel.With the lock systems on thewaterways and the radar/sonarand other modern navigationalaids, I very much doubt a fatalaccident could occur due to thehull's material alone.”
R.V.
“As much as the Delta Queenis part of Cincinnati tradition, Ipersonally would not want tospend time traveling on an oldwooden boat.
“While I like adventure, theDQ is way past its prime and itwas takenoutofservice forgoodreason, it is dangerous. It doesnot meet federal standards andMr. Chabot is trying to makepoints with the old folks on theWest Side by endangering them.
“But the Delta Queen is duefor retirement. Let her go.”

Sept. 25 questionShould college athletes be
paid? If so, nowmuch? If not,whynot?
“Division 1 (FBS) athletes onfull scholarship get room, board,meals, tuition and books. Thesescholarships can last up to fiveyears; so far so good. Howeverthe Scholarships can be with-drawn or renewed on a yearlybasis. Not all athletes playing asport have these 'full rides.’ Ath-letesonfull ridesarenotallowedto work. They put in about 30hours per week on their sportplus going to class and studying.Manyathletescomefromhomesthat can not provide spendingmoney; they cannot sell theirtickets or memorabilia. Many ofthese college sports (football,basketball) provide billions inrevenue to the colleges via TVpackages and tickets sales. Ihave no problem with these ath-letes getting some reasonablespending money. Their headcoachesmakemillions.”

OCTOBER 9, 2013 • WESTERN HILLS PRESS • B3LIFE
The seasons on ourlittle patch of heavenare marked by what’sgoing on outside in ourgardens and what my
husband,Frank, isdoing withour out-side equip-ment.Right nowhe’s “salt-ing thingsaway forthe win-ter,” mean-ing he’s
servicing the tiller, trac-tor, boat and lawn mow-ers for a winter rest inthe garage.
Our bell peppers havefinally ripened, so I wasable to add them to anantipasto tray I madefor a friend’s rehearsaldinner.
Easy antipastoNeed a stunning and
delicious appetizer? Anantipasto tray fills thebill. It is not only appeal-ing to the eye, butthere’s something on thetray for everybody.
Go to your olive barand ask lots of ques-tions. I went to the East-gate Jungle Jim’s olivebar and was able to sam-ple whatever I wanted.This will help in choos-ing the right ingredientsfor your budget andguests. I did chooseolives without pits. Sinceprosciutto is expensive,I bought a few slices togarnish and folded themover on top of the anti-pasto. I also sprinkled acan of chickpeas on top.The nice thing about thisrecipe is that it can beassembled a day ahead.For the sauce, I use Cae-sar salad dressing withfresh herbs stirred in. Idrizzle the dressing onright before I serve it.
My favoritetwo-way brisket
Brisket is a cut ofmeat from the lowerchest or breast of beef.It is amazingly flavorful,but tough, so slow cook-ing is a must. Either wayyou cook this – in theoven or in a slow cooker– the brisket turns outtender and so delicious.Serve with mashed pota-
toes or noodles.
3 pounds beef brisket2 cups chili sauce1 cup brown sugar, packed1 cup beef broth1 very large onion, sliced1⁄4 teaspoon ground cloves3 bay leavesSalt and pepper to taste
Oven: Preheat oven to325 degrees. Combinechili sauce, sugar andbroth. Pour about half ofthis in the bottom ofroasting pan. Place bris-ket on sauce, fat side up.Distribute onion, clovesand bay leaves overbrisket. Pour rest ofsauce over. Cover andbake 50-55 minutes perpound or until meat isfork tender. Removebrisket from pan andremove bay leaves andwhole cloves. Cut bris-ket across the grain.Skim off any fat fromtop of sauce. Pour sauceover brisket (or putsauce in refrigeratorovernight and the fatwill congeal on top foreasy removal. Thenreheat with brisket in375 degree oven, cov-ered, or in microwave).
Slow cooker: I like tocook mine 9-12 hours orso on low, until melting-ly tender.
Perfectly grilledsalmon/seafoodfollowing the 70/30rule
Have the grill hot,lightly brush both sidesof fish with oil, and startgrilling skin side up withthe grill closed. (Or put adisposable pan over thefish). Leave it alone untilabout 70 percent of thefish is done on first side.You’ll know it by thelooks and also if it willrelease easily. This al-lows fish to form a nicecrust. Turn it and finishcooking. The rule ofabout 7-10 minutes perinch of thickness works,also. Start with 7 min-utes and go from there.
Readers want toknow:
Honing steels: “Myhoning/knife steeldoesn’t work anymore.Should I replace it?”Run your thumbnailaround the circumfer-
ence of the tool. If youcan still feel grooves,your steel is still useful.It is magnetized to pickup microscopic fillingsthat come off the knife’sblade. It’s a good idea torub the steel with a clothafter use so groovesdon’t get clogged. Nowunless the honer hasdiamond chips in it,most steels won’t sharp-en a dull knife (theyrestore the knife’s biteby straightening themicroscopic “teeth” atthe edge that fold withuse). Now even if yourhoning steel is in good
condition, sometimes aknife doesn’t respond tohoning. If that happens,it’s time to get the knifesharpened professional-ly.

These days scammershave taken to the internetto steal your money withfake emails, fraudulentwebsites and misleadingsales offers. While in-ternet scams are numer-ous, several consumersstill report receivingscams through the mail.
A Fort Thomas manwrote me about a creditcard offer he receivedfrom AmTrade Interna-tional Bank. It offeredhim a credit card with “A$3,600 Visa credit limit!Guaranteed!”
The man sent whatwas supposed to havebeen a refundable $900fee, but says he neverreceived the credit cardnor a pre-paid gas cardthat was also promised.The 74-year-old man sayshe’s on a fixed income sothe loss of all that moneyhit him pretty hard.
Although he paid by
check andcontactedthe FederalBureau ofInvestiga-tion andthe FederalTradeCommis-sion, hewas toldnothing
could be done to recoverhis money. Such scamsare very popular so re-member never sendmon-ey to someone who prom-ises to loan youmoney orextend credit.
A Hyde Park womanwrote me to say she knewimmediately the lettershe received was a scam.It allegedly came fromPublishers ClearingHouse and used the com-pany’s real address. The$1.5 million she was toldshe won was anything butreal. She knew not to
bother calling the longdistance phone numbergiven to claim her win-nings.
AWyoming womanreceived a letter tellingher she qualified for anaward of two round-tripairline tickets. She sus-pected it was a scambecause there was noreturn address and theletter had bad punctua-tion. So she too was toldto call a phone number toclaim her prize, allegedlyvalued at nearly $1,400.
Better Business Bu-reau says this is just aphishing scam intendingto steal people’s personalinformation. This womannever entered a contestto receive this award oftwo free airline ticketsplus two nights a majorhotel.
Fortunately, just likethe Hyde Park woman,theWyoming womandidn’t call the numberand says she wants towarn others about thisscam. Many peopleacross the nation havereceived this letter. Oneperson who called wastold they first had to
attend a timeshare salespresentation before theycould receive the ticketsthey won. Another personwho called was told theyhad to give their creditcard number over thephone.
One of the most fre-quent scams I’ve run intoinvolves criminals send-ing you what appears tobe a real check for thou-sands of dollars. You’resupposed to deposit thecheck, keep some of themoney, then wire the restto the sender. Unfortu-nately, many consumerslearn too late that thecheck they received inthe mail is phony – andnow they’re on the hookto repay the bank for thegood money they wired tothe criminals.
Bottom line, the mailis still full of scams thesedays so you have to be-ware.
