BURLINGTON – As of Dec. 2, there havebeen 353 mass shooting incidents in the UnitedStates, according to The Gun Violence Archive,online at http://bit.ly/1NPvnXP.

The site lists incidents involving four ormore individuals, including the date, location,number of people killed and injured, and theidentity of the shooters, if known. The list in-cludes 462 fatalities and 1,312 people injured sofar this year.

Law enforcement officers, fire and emergen-cy medical personnel and emergency manage-ment staff from Boone, Campbell and Kentoncounties gathered on Sept. 21 in Burlington totest their training in exactly that situation, amass casualty incident drill with multiple sim-ulated injuries and deaths.

‘Constant practicing’ in N. Ky.Bill Fletcher, deputy director of Boone Coun-

ty Emergency Management, said the simula-tion’s results were “extraordinary.”

“We’re seeing the benefit of the system we’vedeveloped and the hours of training we’ve done,in house and interagency trainings,” saidFletcher.

“We’re establishing processes that have beenduplicated in other jurisdictions across thecountry. Our constant practicing of those proc-esses help us be prepared.”

Fletcher said it’s impossible to determinehow Northern Kentucky would fare in a situa-tion similar to those seen in San Bernardino,California, New Orleans or Roseburg, Oregon,because shooters’ tactics become more sophisti-

cated over time as they learn from previous in-cidents.

“These perpetrators are constantly increas-ing their sophistication and techniques of howthey operate, which changes how we respond,”said Fletcher.

“By using our tactics, we are adaptable, andthat’s the best thing we can be. I think we’re tru-ly capable, and I think the exercise proved that.The time we cleared the building was extraordi-nary, and our unified command staff was ex-traordinary as well.”

Fletcher said September’s training exercisehad 92 simulated injuries or fatalities, whichwere moved out of the building and prepared fortreatment within 80 minutes, using a tactic de-veloped in Boone County.

“swift assisted victim extraction,” is a taskforce concept that brings together law enforce-

FLORENCE – Boone Coun-ty needs more bus drivers.

The school district’s busdriver shortage was men-tioned by SuperintendentRandy Poe during the dis-trict’s financial review at theDec. 10 Boone County SchoolBoard meeting.

Poe pointed out that$10,000 in overtime chargesduring November stemmedfrom the bus driver short-age, which has mechanicsand other workers filling inas bus drivers, because thedistrict is short 30 bus driv-ers.

Boone County Schools isthe third-largest district inthe state, behind only Jeffer-son and Fayette counties,with more than 17,500 stu-dents at 23 schools, accord-ing to its website,www.boone.kyschools.us.

Mainly, he said, the driv-ers needed are to substitutefor regular drivers who areout for various reasons. Poesaid it takes 20-25 drivers aday to cover for regular driv-ers. In November, he said

seven drivers were hired,but three went out on long-term disability for healthreasons.

The overtime amount di-rectly corresponds to a sav-ings in the full-time salarybudget, Poe said.

The district is trying tohire more drivers. Poe saidthey are advertising the posi-tions in the media, on web-sites and even church bulle-tins.

“People don’t realizewe’re running about 225 to250 buses a day,” he said.

The shortage means somestudents are being deliveredto school and returned homelater than the usual schedule.

Poe also noted BooneCounty’s low unemploymentrate, 3.9 percent, is making itdifficult to find people whowant to drive buses.

“We are losing some of ourdrivers to the great thingshappening in our economy,”he said. “So if you know any-body who wants to drive abus, have them get in touch.”

FRANKFORT –Boone County Judge-ex-ecutive Gary Moore wasamong the 2016 officerssworn in Wednesday tolead the Kentucky Coun-ty Judge/Executive As-sociation.

State Sen. JohnSchickel administeredoaths for the officers, in-cluding Moore as presi-dent, at the Berry HillMansion in Frankfort.

The officers wereelected at the organiza-tion’s general member-ship meeting on Nov. 18in Lexington. The offi-cers will assume theirduties on Jan. 1, 2016.

Moore has served asBoone’s judge-executivefor 17 years.

During his tenure,Boone County has expe-rienced tremendousgrowth both in the busi-ness sector and in popu-lation and is now thefourth-largest county inthe commonwealth.

Moore is chair of theNational Association of

Counties’ Environment,Energy and Land UseSteering Committee,chair of the Tri-CountyEconomic DevelopmentCorp. and has served aspresident of NationalAssociation of RegionalCouncils and chair of theOKI Regional Council ofGovernments, in addi-tion to lending his tal-ents to numerous civicand community groups.

Other executiveboard officers for the2016 term include FirstVice President KellyCallaham of MartinCounty; Second VicePresident Melanie J.Roberts of Bullitt Coun-ty, Third Vice PresidentAlex Barnett of Harri-son County, SecretaryPerry A. Newcom ofCrittenden County, Trea-surer Harold McKinneyof Boyle County and Ser-geant-at-arms JohnPhelps of CumberlandCounty.

Past president for theorganization is John A.Settles of WashingtonCounty.

The Kentucky CountyJudge/Executive Associ-ation was formed in 1980and incorporated as anonprofit corporation in1982. The association’spurpose is to act as a liai-son between countyjudges-executive andstate and federal gov-ernment entities.

ment officials with fire and emer-gency medical staff members to re-move casualties quickly and effi-ciently.

They train specifically for inci-dents involving active shooters andmass casualties.

Fletcher said law enforcementworks as security to help protectthe medical personnel as they pre-pare injured people to go out of thebuilding to a triage, treatment andtransportation area, known as theT3 area.

“This is the first time in a littleover 10 years that we’ve brought allof these agencies together to makean efficient and effective SAVE re-sponse,” said Fletcher. “All the par-ticipants were pleased with the re-sult.”

Fletcher said that during masscasualty training in 2003, BooneCounty Emergency Managementrealized there wasn’t a system inplace to evacuate and secure abuilding or location after a tragedyoccurred.

They developed the SAVE proc-ess and have spent the last sevenyears refining and improving theprocess, leading up to September’sdrill.

“The people of Northern Ken-tucky can be reassured that theiremergency response community –whether that be emergency man-agement, law enforcement officers,fire and emergency medical ser-vices, everyone in all of these disci-plines throughout the region – iscommitted to working together to

the best of our ability to keep ourpublic safe,” said Chief Jeff Barlowof the Burlington Fire ProtectionDistrict.

Barlow said his departmenttrains on SAVE tactics on a routinebasis.

“It’s a fantastic program thatdoes a great job of integrating lawenforcement and rescue emergen-cy medical services in a way that wecan help the public as quickly andsafely as we can,” he said. “At theend of the day, it’s not about whodoes what, but it’s about serving thepublic to the best of our ability.”

Both Fletcher and Barlow saidthe September drill highlightedsome deficiencies in the system andsome victories as well.

How they didFletcher said the team needed to

improve “their ability for inter-agency communication coordina-tion,” which he described as “hav-ing all of these first responderscoming to an event, where 150 fireand emergency medical servicefolks are all on one channel.” Hesaid separate radio channels wouldbe assigned to the different rolesduring each event.

“We realized we need a plan andnow we have one,” Fletcher said.

Similar endeavors in the futurewill also need more supervisorystaff, he said.

That likely wouldn’t be an issueduring a real crisis situation, be-cause more law enforcement andmedical personnel would be avail-able in an actual incident, but noteveryone could participate in thetraining.

“During a real event, we’d havemore responders present,” he said,

including some from neighboringjurisdictions.

“The biggest take-away is the im-plementation of the SAVE tech-nique. It works,” Fletcher said.

Another victory he noted was theunified incident command staff.

Barlow said the agencies’ coop-eration during the exercise wasn’t“manufactured.”

“It’s amazing to have such a largenumber of agencies that work sowell together. It’s a blessing to be aparticipant in the emergency re-sponse community here. There aresome places where the fire and po-lice don’t get along or there’s ani-mosity. That’s not here,” he said.

“Anytime you can have thatmany responders come togetherfrom multiple counties and stillcome about with a successful re-sponse, is a huge achievement, butI’m pleased to be in Boone County,because the responders that partici-pated are not willing to sit back andsay, ‘That went OK, we’re goodenough.’ No. We analyze what wedid and how we did it and thinkabout how we can make it even bet-ter for the future.”

The exercise included KentuckyEmergency Management, Ken-tucky Community Crisis ResponseBoard, Kentucky Department ofPublic Health, along with Emergen-cy Management from Boone,Campbell and Kenton counties, and27 community police and fire agen-cies, as well as Boone County PublicWorks and the Boone County SchoolDistrict, all four St. Elizabeth Med-ical Centers, the Northern Ken-tucky Independent Health Depart-ment and the University of Cincin-nati Medical Center.

VERONA – To their initialowners, the white oakbarrels inside Tim

Bertsch’s shop had one shot towork their magic.

Charred bourbon barrels arecreated with three simple ingre-dients – rings, staves and heads –assembled under pressure to agethe Bluegrass state’s multi-billion-dollar bourbon industry.

Bourbon barrels can be usedonce. Then some are sold tostore aging soy sauce or shippedto Europe to be used in Scotchproduction. Some are simplydiscarded.

Bertsch, a woodworker sinceyouth, prefers to keep the bar-rels closer to home. Working inthe midst of 52 acres of densewoodlands in Verona, he trans-forms the staves – the narrowstrips of wood that form thesides of a barrel – into bistro barstools, the heads into signs andthe rings into tea lights.

The possibilities are endless.“I’m always looking for new

ideas,” Bertsch said as he satback to study a barrel he had cutvertically to create a portablebar with hidden shelves. “Youcan really be as creative as youwant to be.”

Bertsch’s curiosity in bour-bon barrels took root shortlyafter he retired two years ago.“My wife (Glenna) and I were ina retail shop in Covington and Isaw an old barrel. I startedthinking about what I could dowith it … It was a Heaven Hill.”

Barrels carry the name of thedistillery on the head or top ofthe barrel. “The nicer ones havethe names stamped on thestaves,” Bertsch said. “Those Itry to save for something spe-cial.”

The initial barrel was repur-posed into a garden bench andwine rack.

Bertsch owns Verona WoodCrafts. His business carries theKentucky Proud label – meaninga product is grown, raised orprocessed in Kentucky – but heconsiders the barrels more ahobby than a career. Many of hispieces, which he sells in RabbitHash and online, are donated tononprofit organizations such asLifeCenter and the Aubrey RoseFoundation for silent auctions.

“What he does is really amaz-ing, his benches are impressive,“ said Nancy Hollenkamp, abusiness analyst for Duke Ener-gy who co-founded the AubreyRose Foundation. “He helps ushelp the kids we help.”

“The items he donates arealways popular,” said AndiO’Malley, public affairs directorfor LifeCenter, an organ donornetwork based in Cincinnati.

Bertsch’s father Rolland wasa woodworker. The Bertsches’daughter, Lindsay Bertsch Pou-tier, of Fort Leavenworth, Kan-sas, didn’t fall far from the fam-ily tree. Bertsch ships her piecesof fallen Eastern red cedar treesfrom his property. She createsjewelry.

Bertsch doesn’t discriminate.He uses wine barrels too. “Usingthe staves in those barrels areprobably my favorite thing to do,especially if it is red wine,” hesaid. “I don’t use any stain. Thedeep red color is natural.”

“I think what interests is thattie to Kentucky. Bourbon is a bigpart of the state’s history andnow the wineries are becomingwell known. I like to preservethat part of the heritage,” he said

Tim Bertsch sits at one of the bistro sets he created out of reclaimed bourbon barrels. The woodworkersays he enjoys working with wood that has strong ties to the state’s rich heritage.


The woodworker uses every board in the reclaimed barrels. And even bags up any leftover chips to sell to cooks who want to smoke meat.

From bistro bar sets to tiny candleholders, Bertsch is always looking fornew ideas on how to use the bourbonbarrels he finds.


Distilleries stamp information about the batch of bourbon on the barrelhead. Some barrels also have lettering on the staves. Tim Bertsch says hesaves those barrels for “something special.”


Verona resident Tim Bertsch uses the staves or sides of the barrels to createsigns. Bourbon barrels are constructed with three simple ingredients –staves, heads (top and bottom) and rings.

FLORENCE – Kentucky hasmore homeless children percapita than any other state inthe nation, and the problem ac-tually may be greater than thenumbers indicate, according toa staff attorney for the Chil-dren’s Law Center.

The National Center on Fam-ily Homelessness ranked Ken-tucky worst in the nation on onescale of child homelessness (ad-justed for state population) in2013. The U.S. Department ofEducation subsequently count-ed more than 2,100 homelesschildren in Boone, Kenton andCampbell counties alone in the2014-15 school year.

“Everyone believes that

number was low,” Children’sLaw Center attorney TiffanySmith told Florence Rotarians

at a meeting on Dec. 7. “Theyobviously don’t find them all. Alot of children go from onefriend’s home to anotherfriend’s home to anotherfriend’s home.

“The number grows through-out the school year as familiesrun out of money, too,” she add-ed.

The Children’s Law Center inCovington is a nonprofit legalservice agency committed toprotecting the rights of chil-dren and advocating for theirneeds. The center collaborateswith other organizations on im-proving support systems forchildren as well as providingimpact litigation and juveniledefender services.

Homeless children are atgreater risk of abuse, mental

health issues, difficulty inschool and interaction with thejuvenile justice system, Smithsaid. The Children’s Law Cen-ter’s Youth Homeless Programhelps to identify homeless chil-dren, to remove legal barriersand address homeless chil-dren’s needs.

For example, the Children’sLaw Center works closely withthe county school systems’ fam-ily resource coordinators, whoSmith calls “the first line of de-fense in locating homeless chil-dren.” The center utilized a fed-eral grant to create a resourceguide for them.

The center also receives re-ferrals from therapists and oth-ers who work with juvenileproblems.

“We help to identify the

child’s needs and prioritizethem,” Smith said. “We talk withthe child, help find a place tosleep and a school for educa-tion.”

In addition, the Children’sLaw Center collaborates withagencies that provide case man-agement and other support ser-vices.

However, the number ofhomeless youths keeps climb-ing.

“The numbers have in-creased 19 percent over the pasttwo to three years,” Smith said.“It’s pretty heartbreaking.”

ERLANGER – They’remean ones for sure, thosewho steal packages deliv-ered during the holidayseason.

Four Erlanger resi-dences have recentlybeen hit by these criminalGrinches.

“It’s typical this time ofyear,” Lt. Mike Jansing ofthe Erlanger Police De-partment said. “And it’sacross the board, it’s notjust in Erlanger, but pret-ty much every city is deal-ing with this.”

The first three reportsof package thefts camefrom Jaclyn Street, whichJansing said are believedto be related. However,the department isn’t sureabout a theft that oc-

curred on Forest Street.The reports come justthree weeks into theChristmas season, thefirst three were madeDec. 5, the first Saturdayafter the popular onlineshopping day, Cyber Mon-day.

“We’re still investigat-ing,” Jansing said.

Jansing said the de-partment has also beefedup its patrolling. “We’vebeen following UPS andFedEx trucks and wait alittle bit after they dropoff packages. We’re alsochecking unmarkedcars.”

The department hasalso released a list of waysresidents can protectthemselves from suchthefts on the Erlanger Po-lice Department’s Face-book page. The sugges-

tions include:» making sure some-

one is home when a pack-age is delivered or mak-ing arrangements with aneighbor to pick up thepackage;

» requiring a signa-ture before the packagecan be left;

» picking up the pack-age at the post office ordelivery warehouse;

» or having the pack-age delivered to one’sworkplace.

If you have any infor-mation on the packagethefts, or need to report atheft, contact the policedepartment at 859-727-2525.

FLORENCE – At 55Spiral Drive, the loca-tion formerly known asPharaoh Laser Adven-ture mini golf and lasertag is now catering to aslightly older crowd.

Fumbles Sports Bar,owned by Tony and Tra-cey Jones of Burling-ton, has taken over the14,000-square-footspace that still includesall the Egyptian-themed artwork andequipment from whenchildren and teenagersplayed putt-putt and la-ser tag, now along witha remodeled kitchenand full bar with videogames, pool tables,large-screen televi-sions and a stage forbands to perform.

The bar only occu-pies 6,000 square feet ofthe space, and Joneshopes to use the lasertag area for banquetsand special events, likea haunted house.

Mini golf is open onthe weekends. Theyhope to host otherevents as well such as

cage fighting or Chip-pendales-style danceperformances.

Tony Jones, a 1983Conner High Schoolgraduate and footballstar, previouslylaunched three otherBoone County bars. Heruns Jones Chimney So-lutions and also ran forBoone County commis-sioner in 2014, a seatnow occupied by CathyFlaig.

Jones and his wifeare excited about theopportunities for theirnew business.

“What Florence hasnow, that they’ve neverhad before, is a placewhere bands can reallyplay, that has plenty ofparking, new restroomsthat can handle thecrowds and good food,”he said.

“It’s different for aband to play here thanin a regular bar. Theacoustics are tremen-dous, and anywhere yousit, the view is amazing.You don’t have to godowntown to see yourfavorite band. They’llbe right here in yourneighborhood,” he said.

That doesn’t meanit’s been an easy ridesince it opened in Sep-tember. Fumbles wasthe site of a burglary onNov. 17 in which $450 incash was stolen andthere was no forcibleentry, according to thereport by the FlorencePolice Department. Thecase is still being inves-tigated.

“It takes time to getgoing,” Jones said.“When you have a littlesetback, it can kind ofburn you, but I’m notafraid of anything, and Ihave full confidence inthe Florence Police De-partment to handle thissituation. It’s their ex-pertise, not mine.”

The restaurant opensat noon and the barstays open until 2 a.m.Fumbles is closed onMondays.

FORT THOMAS – EricBarth races into eachNew Year’s Day hoping towin the Frostbite 5 inmemory of his marathon-er-mentor Al Salvato.

Campbell CountyYMCA in Fort Thomassponsors the annual five-mile race started in 1992by newspaper reporterand University of Cincin-nati professor Al Salvato.

Runners includingBarth, 40, will take overFort Thomas city streetsat 10:30 a.m. Friday, Jan. 1for a five-mile dash.

Police will block vehi-

cles from portions ofSouth Fort Thomas Ave-nue, Grand Avenue, High-land Avenue and the mainentrance to Tower Parkfor about 90 minutes forFrostbite 5 runners andwalkers in a Frostbite 5K.

Families and seriousrunners all come out for a

day to start the year withgood healthy habits, saidNick Heiss, YMCA fitnesscoordinator.

“It starts your NewYear off with a great fin-ish,” Heiss said.

This is the 10th year theFrostbite will take placein memory of marathonerSalvato, who died in 2006at age 56.

Salvato was a UC newswriting professor and re-porter for the CincinnatiPost and Kentucky Post.

Barth met Salvatowhen he was 10 throughthe YMCA. Salvato was afamily friend who men-tored Barth in footballand baseball.

Barth became a tightend and middle lineback-er on Highland HighSchool’s 1992 state cham-pionship football team.Barth remembers beingfeatured by Salvato as anathlete of the month innewspaper articles.

Salvato steered Barthinto distance running af-ter high school.

“I would say jokingly,well now I’ve become apretty decent runner andyou don’t write anymorestories about me,” Barthsaid.

Salvato introducedBarth to a group of run-ners who met each morn-ing on a Fort Thomasstreet corner since 1977.Some of those men, now intheir 70s, still get out andrun each year’s Frostbite,he said.

Barth said he gradual-ly changed from a 230-pound football player to a170-pound runner who’srun a 26-mile marathon 15times. Barth has ran Cin-cinnati’s Flying Pig eighttimes, the Boston Mara-thon twice, and mara-thons in Chicago, Nash-ville and Columbus. Barthhas run marathons in un-der 2 hours and 50 min-utes.

Barth keeps lookingfor a Frostbite win sincerunning the race for thefirst time in 2001.

UNION – Ryle High School’sChess Club is learning aboutmore than game strategy. Mem-bers are learning about life andsympathy and generosity.

When the Chess Club formedunder the sponsorship of teach-er Lisa Raterman, the studentmembers were interested ingiving back to the community.

Raterman’s sister, a nurse inSt. Elizabeth’s neonatal inten-sive care unit, suggested herwaiting room could use a fewbooks to keep older children oc-cupied when they accompanytheir parents for visits with sickinfants.

Then, their drive for booksreached more studentsthroughout the high school.

“A special moment cameearly one morning,” Ratermansaid. “A sophomore in my class,Owen Rich, came bearing three

heavy bags.”Owen explained he was a

premature baby who spent timein St. Elizabeth’s NICU beforebeing sent to Cincinnati Chil-dren’s Hospital Medical Center.

“I want to do something togive back to the nurses and peo-ple who helped me as a baby,”Owen said.

Owen and Raterman orga-nized and sorted more than 50books for children of all ages.Altogether, Chess Club mem-bers delivered more than 200books before Thanksgiving.

“We want to say a specialthank you to the hardworking,dedicated nurses that we havehad the pleasure to speak withor the pleasure to teach theirchildren,” she said, listing Tra-cy Burch, Rita Kunk, ChristineLongano, Laura Ross, ConnieWohlwender and Dana Yockey.

PARK HILLS — Covington Catholic High School seniorLuke Rolfsen drew a Christmas card on a tablet’s screen thesame way Disney and Pixar designers create movies.

CovCath students and teachers liked Rolfsen’s card somuch they made it the school’s Christmas card mailer.

Teacher Craig Cleveland’s 20 first-year graphic designstudents, including Rolfsen, use a Wacom Cintiq digitaldrawing tablet in his graphic design classes. Cleveland chal-lenged students to a contest to design this year’s CovCathChristmas card. Teachers and Rolfsen’s fellow design stu-dents voted on the winning Christmas card.

Rolfsen, of Crestview Hills, said drawing with a comput-er without a Wacom Cintiq requires looking up at a screen tosee what you just drew.

“With the Wacom tablet you’re drawing right on thescreen,” he said.

Rolfsen chose the card’s Bible passage and design basedon his favorite family Christmas decoration. The cardquotes Romans’ 15:13, “May the God of hope fill you with alljoy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the holySpirit you may abound in hope.”

“I kind of chose the passage, because in my house there isa pillow that has that on it that we get out each Christmas,”Rolfsen said.

Rolfsen said he can’t find the pillow yet this year, butfriends and family members have already given him kudosfor designing the card.

For imagery, Rolfsen started with Mary and Joseph at themanger. He gave the card a look of stained glass on purpose.

Rolfsen said he added angels above the manger includingsome with more than two wings. Rolfsen said he drew “an-gels on high” known as seraphim with sets of four and sixwings. Cleveland, Rolfsen’s teacher, said the angels were thefirst thing that caught his eye.

“I was just really drawn to how those were created,”Cleveland said. “It was very iconic, almost something youwould see from a Christmas card of years past.”

HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Ky. – Morethan 1,300 students were honored atNorthern Kentucky University’s Win-ter Commencement on Dec. 12 at BB&TArena.

Commencement exercises were heldat 10 a.m. for graduates of the College ofArts and Sciences and the Haile/USBank College of Business. Commence-ment exercises were held at 3 p.m. forgraduates of the College of Educationand Human Services, the College ofHealth Professions, and the College ofInformatics.

Thousands of people filled BB&TArena to celebrate the students’achievements. They heard remarksfrom NKU President Geoffrey S.Mearns, NKU professor Dr. Cecile A.Marczinski, and from their peers.

“As you embark upon your next jour-ney in life, please remember to lightyour way and to keep the passion thatfuels the desire for knowledge, the de-sire to be better than you were yester-day, and the desire to be a light for thosewho might need your help alive in yourhearts, minds and souls,” said OrsellaIrambona, who received a dual Bache-lor of Science in Finance and BusinessManagement.

Irambona is a native of Bujumbura,Burundi, who immigrated to the UnitedStates with her family in 2006. She at-tended Withrow High School in Cincin-nati, where she learned English in justsix months. Irambona received a fullacademic scholarship to NKU, makingthe President’s Honor list and theScholar list while being involved in ex-tracurricular activities. She plans towork for The Kroger Co.

Graduates in the afternoon ceremo-ny heard from Jacob Cain, a native ofCold Spring who found his passion inathletic training after an injury cut hisathletic career short.

“Adversity is universal, it’s some-thing we all have faced and will con-tinue to face as we move into the nextstage of our life,” he said. “And as weenter the ‘real world,’ our difficultiesonly seem to become bigger. But nomatter what’s thrown at you, no matterhow deep the hole, we must always finda way to overcome. Every graduatehere has the talent and training to suc-ceed.”

Cain attended NKU on an athleticscholarship for baseball, made theDean’s List, and gave back to the com-munity through philanthropic activ-ities. He received a Bachelor of Sciencein Athletic Training, and he plans towork as a graduate assistant whilepursing a master’s degree.

You’ll never believe whatkind of “gift without ribbons”I received last week.

Farmer Bruner, who livesdown the road, knocked on my

back kitchenscreen door. Hehad a five-gal-lon bucket ofhickory nuts onhis arm.

“I thoughtyou might likesome,” he toldme. What? Likesome? Howabout lovesome? “These

nuts came from trees firstplanted long ago by my dad onour farm,” he said. He told meto shell a couple and plantthem, which we did.

Hickory nuts are so expen-sive when you find themshelled (if you can) at the gro-cery. So to have been given abig bucketful was both over-whelming and so very cool.

The thing, though, abouthickory nuts, is that they havean outer shell, which is fairlyeasily removed in four quad-rants. The inner shell, not somuch. Lucky for me our son,Jason, came over with two ofhis boys, Will and Jack, to helpsplit wood that same day. Icorralled Jack into helping mecrack nuts with bricks whileWill helped with wood. (Ifyou’ve never shelled a hickorynut, go to my websiteAbouteating.com to see “howto” photos by Jack). We usedsome of the hickory nuts inthis classic monkey breadrecipe. Eating it warm fromthe oven was a real treat.

And oh, by the way, I prom-ised Jack I’d make him someHarry Potter butter beer nexttime he comes over. I’m shar-ing both the monkey bread andthe butter beer recipes today.

Rita’s recommendationfor holiday cookbookgiving

There are everydayregulars like tomato sauce,pork roast and brownies, alongwith delicious stews, Asianclassics, pies, steaks, seafood,you name it, this book has it.And the recipes are all doable,since they’ve been tested so

thoroughly. I can see cookingout of this book through 2016.

A publication of

Last week’s questionIf an active shooter situation

were to happen here, such as themass shooting in San Bernardino,how well equipped do you thinkyour community is able to handleit?

“I don’t know if we are as pre-pared as we should be. Youwould think with the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Interna-tional Airport that this countywould be more than preparedand if they are not ... they needto reassess and the sooner thebetter.”

Mike C.

“Our awesome Boone Coun-ty police could probably handleanything but I’m not sure if I, asa citizen, could.”

Linda Ann Salsbury

“I hope very efficient.”Carl Wilhelmy

“How long would it take torun home (or at the very least, toyour vehicle) to grab that rifle?While many of us may be pre-pared to defend our homes (butonly while we are home) I don’tthink we are well prepared forthe types of mass shootings thatare occurring in “gun free”areas. The answer would be toconceal carry into areas thatforbid it. Unless there is a metaldetector, who is going to know?It’s concealed.”

Susan Miller Rosenberger

“Conceal carry to all placesunless they use a metal detectorto prove that the bad guys aregun free too.”

James Wakefield

“No such thing as a ‘gun freezone’ in my opinion. Alwayshave to be prepared.”

Scott Schulkers

“You could stop a full-blownmassacre with your weapon andthe news wouldn’t report on it.Good people stop bad people ev-eryday and the media doesn’treport it. You could take down ajihadist in the mall courtyardand it wouldn’t make it past lo-cal news.”

Rob Stone

“ I have Googled armed citi-zen stops shooter/attacker.Good stuff. The American Ri-fleman has short stories aboutarmed citizens.”

Bethany Pancerzewski Spence

“Our law enforcement have

practiced this scene manytimes here and are prepared toprotect. My family knows whatto do as we are protected by theSecond Amendment. The sher-iff has told everyone with a gunpermit to carry their guns withthem.”

John Scales

“If you are in a gun free zone,there is nothing you can do.”

Mike Schmidt

“Turning American back intothe wild west. Awesome ...”

Patrick Cuddihee

“The Boone County Sheriff’sOffice can’t do it alone. It’s timeus citizens stand up and helpkeep your eyes open and stay onyour toes.”

Jon Mobley

“I am not sure if this is al-ready being done. ... I would liketo see the police rotate througheach school so we have a policeofficer at all schools all thetime. No matter the cost to tax-payers. I would like the commu-nity to arm certain teachers andhave them cross train with thepolice. Also community meet-ings on alertness and what to doin those active shooter mo-ments/any community emer-gency.”

Bethany Pancerzewski Spence

“Let’s just have tanks patrolour neighborhoods and schools.I hear more firepower is thebest deterrent.”

Patrick Cuddihee

“I volunteer to drive the tank...”

Scott Schulkers

“I hope we never have to findout ... but I don’t think we areever prepared or could handle amass shooting. It always hap-pens without warning.”

Before big industry wasintroduced into Boone Coun-ty, a different kind of produc-tion was happening along U.S.25, where the Northern Ken-tucky Industrial Park nowstands. Highland Stock Farm,a 550-acre thoroughbredbreeding and training facilityof the highest order, was oncelocated at the southeast cor-ner of what is now Dixie Hwy(U.S. 25) and Industrial Road.

Highland Stock Farm’sowner, Jerome “Rome” B.Respess, was a Boone Countynative, born here in 1863.Once a competitive showmanof Saddlebreds at the localfairs, Rome’s interest turnedto horse racing near the endof the 1800s.

Respess was a success, andsoon owned a brewery and

interest inseveral race-tracks aroundthe country,includingLatonia Race-track. Hebegan breed-ing and train-ing championracehorses athis Ohio studfarm before

moving to the Florence loca-tion. Highland Stock Farmcould house 140 horses andhad nine bright white barns.On average, there were 50foals born there per year. TheFlorence farm was home tosome big names in thorough-bred racing during the early20th century. ThoroughbredWintergreen was the 1909

Kentucky Derby winner, buthis sire, Dick Welles (born in1900) was the star.

Dick Welles was frequent-ly compared to the legendaryMan O’ War, and was calledthe “swiftest thoroughbredever seen on the AmericanContinent” by the LexingtonHerald in 1904. The magnifi-cent animal smashed recordsfar and wide, once setting aworld record for the mile at 1minute 37 seconds. His blood-lines proved successful andhe is mentioned frequently inindustry archives of breedingassociations, well beyond hisdeath in 1923. Respessthought so highly of DickWelles that he installed amonument to the horse with abronze marker on the farm.

Rome and his wife, Rena,

experienced tragedy in 1932,when their only child died ina car accident on his way toLouisville on the eve of theKentucky Derby. Jerome B.Respess, Jr., a 20-year-oldsophomore at the Universityof Kentucky, was en route tohelp prepare a horse for therace when the accident oc-curred. When the elder Res-pess succumbed to illness in1939, his widow sold the farmto the Holton family who heldit until receiving an offer topurchase from the developersof what is now the NorthernKentucky Industrial Park.Though Dick Welles’ monu-ment no longer stands, hisblood may still through theveins of champion race-horses.

Eighteen percent of ourregion’s population lives belowthe poverty level – this affectsall communities from WesternHills to Downtown to AndersonTownship. A core tenet of La-Rosa’s Family Pizzeria is aboutsupporting families in ourcommunity by helping ourneighbors in need. Childrenliving in poverty are particular-ly affected – in many cases,these children go to schoolhungry and over the holidaybreak, parents don’t haveenough resources to providethe meals that would normallybe provided in school or atafter school programs.

Over 44 percent of Cincin-nati children in poverty go toschool ill-prepared, in dirtyclothes, without socks or wear-ing shoes that don’t fit. Someschool teachers even have foodand clothing closets at school tohelp. Imagine having a house-hold income of less than$20,000 a year for yourself andseveral children – it doesn’t gofar. Imagine how you’d feel asa parent knowing that yourchild is hungry and having noresources to feed them. Or thatyour child doesn’t have a coatfor our frigid Cincinnati win-ters. This is a snapshot of theworking poor.

Nationally 1 in 5 children

face hungeron a dailybasis. We allhave a role toplay in ensur-ing that nochild goeshungry. Partof that role istalking about“food insecuri-ty” withfriends, col-

leagues and family to helpraise awareness of this criticalissue. Volunteering is anotherway you can actively help. TheFreestore Foodbank, amongother social service organiza-tions, seeks volunteers, partic-ularly during the holidays toensure that all of its clientsreceive the help that they need.

This holiday season, LaRo-sa’s is proud to once againsupport the Freestore Food-bank of Cincinnati to help theindividuals and families in ourcommunity.

An interested reader of thiscolumn sent me an e-mail re-cently with a very good sugges-tion to write about the topic oflandlord/tenant law.

The law surrounding land-lords and tenants can be quitedifferent depending on whereyou live. A property beingrented can either be governedby common law or by the Uni-form Residential LandlordTenant Act (URLTA) as foundin Chapter 383 of KentuckyRevised Statute.

For example, if your rentalproperty is in Dayton, Belle-vue, Newport, Woodlawn,Southgate, Melbourne or SilverGrove, the Uniform ResidentialLandlord Tenant Act is theapplicable law in the landlordtenant relationship. If you’reoutside of these areas in Camp-bell County, such as Alexan-dria, the common law applies.

Depending on the applicablelaw, there are some significantdifferences in the rights, dutiesand remedies of landlords andtenants. However, there aresome universal rules that apply

to all leases.Specifically,there is noright to “self-help.” Whatthis means isthere is noright, withouta court order,of the landlordto forciblyevict a tenant,turn off elec-

tricity or water in order to geta tenant to move, or lock atenant out of the rental proper-ty. If you attempt “self-help” inKentucky, the penalties can besteep and include attorney’sfees.

Although a landlord does nothave the right to “self-help,”the landlord can get a courtorder to have a tenant forciblyevicted provided that the land-lord has taken the proper stepsunder the applicable law. Aftergiving proper notice, a landlordmay file a “forcible detainer”action in District Court to havea tenant evicted. In this type ofaction, the tenant must receive

three days notice before thecourt date. Our District Courtsregularly hear and rule onthese types of cases on a week-ly basis.

This forcible detainer caseonly addresses whether thetenant should be evicted andnot what type or how muchdamages there are owed toeither party. The issue of dam-ages can be determined, byelection of either the landlordor tenant, in a subsequent case.

Landlord/tenant law can bevery complex. The informationprovided is a summary of gen-eral landlord/tenant law. I high-ly recommend that you consultan attorney if you find yourselfembroiled in a landlord/tenantdispute.

If you have any topics youwould like to have covered inthis column, please contact myoffice by e-mail at [email protected],by phone at 491-7700 or byregular mail addressed to 319York St., Newport, Ky. 41071.

Ryle placed seventh with 127points, and boasted additionalplacers Aaron Brossart, fourthat 106 pounds, and Ben Huth,fourth at 220.

“I was real happy with theupper-weight guys,” Ruschellsaid. “Obviously, there are still alot of things to improve on, butwhat’s good about this meet is ithelps you get better.”

THANKS TO DOUG LANGE

Ryle senior Carly Lange signed to play basketball with NAIA Indiana Wesleyan UniversityDec. 10. Standing in back are IWU head coach Steve Brooks and Ryle head coach Katie Haitz.Parents in front are Pam and Doug Lange.

Playing against astrong contingent of localrivals in the NAIA, theGeorgetown Collegewomen’s soccer teammade the best of its tal-ent this season.

The Tigers had one oftheir best overall cam-paigns in a 13-3-3 seasonthis fall, tying for themost wins in a season inthe past decade andreaching as high as 18thin the national rankings.They got a lot of helpfrom Greater Cincinnatinatives along the way.Head coach Leah Castle-man said the team got thebest out of its abilities.

“I don’t think we wereextraordinarily talent-ed,” she said. “We’re verytalented but that’s not thewhole reason for thesuccess. It was all psy-chological and mentaltoughness. We played sixovertimes and didn’t loseone (3-0-3 record). Justour mental strength anddealing with adversity.That was a key thing forus.”

Georgetown sufferedits three losses to twoin-state foes. Campbells-ville was 19-3 and confer-ence runner-up in theMid-South Conference.Lindsey Wilson (20-2-2)was top-ranked in theNAIA when it beatGeorgetown 2-0, andeventually finished asnational runner-up.

“We had great leader-ship,” Castleman said.“We had two great cap-tains that really heldthings together. You havegood leaders and the restof the team buys intothem. The girls refusedto lose and didn’t give inat times when otherteams may have let go.”

The captains weresenior Jackie Powell outof Ryle High School andjunior Mackenzie Zim-mer out of Dupont Man-ual High School in Louis-ville.

The team prosperedbehind a strong defensethat allowed only 12 goalsin 19 games. Junior Dan-ielle Lang (Amelia) andfreshman Florence na-tive Courtney Hansel(Notre Dame Academy)split time in goal. Powellwas the lone senior in the

defense and a key leaderin the back. SophomoreEmma Schneider (NDA)from Taylor Mill playedin the back line but wasinjured most of the sea-son after starting all oflast year.

“They work so hard.They’re very confident.They’re used to playingwith each other and theyhave a lot of consisten-cy,” Castleman said.“They communicatedreally well.”

Sarah Hencke, a sen-ior from Tennessee, isNo. 2 in school history inassists in a season withnine. Castleman saidHencke led the action ina balanced offense, withseven players combiningfor 36 of the team’s 39goals. Jodi DeJohn fromWoodford County led theway with seven.

Sophomore EmilyConner (Cooper) started12 games and had fivegoals and two assists.Senior Ariel Howell(Boone County) had fourgoals in 17 starts, andwas the one called uponfor penalty kicks duringregulation action, scoringtwice in that manner.

Freshman defenderEmily Anderson (Ryle)played 13 games and hada goal and an assist. Theroster also includes soph-omore Erlanger native

Zoe Stovik (NDA) .Freshman Lauren Dug-gins (Ryle) was on theroster but didn’t see ac-tion this season. Fresh-man Cassidy Hatfield(Harrison) had six goalsand two assists.Other Kentucky schools

A pho-to of a lone Americanblack duck surrounded bymallard ducks taken byJohn Brunjes, migratorybird coordinator withKentucky Fish and Wild-

life, graces the cover ofthe 2016 calendar. Thecenterfold is a reproduc-tion of artist Rick Hill’spopular “Kentucky Fish”species poster.

Question: I just got anamaryllis bulb at thestore. How long will ittake to bloom? Should Ikeep it as a houseplantand hope it re-bloomsagain next year?

Answer: When youbuy or receive an ama-ryllis, it likely will be adormant bulb. If so, potthe bulb about six to 12weeks before you want itto bloom. Use a containerwith a diameter justslightly larger than thebulb and a potting mixthat promotes gooddrainage.

One-third toone-halfthe pointedend of thebulbshouldremainabove thesoil. Thor-oughlywater andput the pot

in a bright, warm win-dow.

Water when the soilbecomes dry to thetouch, but don’t give ittoo much water as it will

cause the bulb to rot.Never allow water toaccumulate in the saucerbeneath the pot.

A few weeks later, aflower stalk shouldemerge, usually beforethe foliage develops.Rotate the containerevery few days to keepthe flower and foliagefrom leaning too muchtoward the light. Youmay need to stake the tallflower stalk to keep itupright, especially in alow-light situation.

When the bloom isspent and the flowers

fade, remove the wiltedflowers and cut the flow-er stalk back to the top ofthe bulb. Do not removeany foliage because theleaves, as long as theyare green, continue tomake and provide carbo-hydrate energy for thenext season's flowers.Fertilize it every coupleof weeks to promotehealthy foliage.

If you want to keepthe amaryllis and get it tobloom again next year,give the plant as muchlight as possible after itflowers. It will help to

move the plant outdoorswhen the danger of frostis over, generally aroundmid-late May.

Gradually acclimatethe plant to brighter lightby first putting it in theshade, under a tree orawning; then moving it tobrighter light every fewdays until the plant isfinally in full sun.

When summer is over,keep the plant in a sunnylocation, but withhold allwater. As the foliagebegins to die and turnbrown, move the pot to acool, dry location such asa basement or closet. Letthe leaves turn totallybrown and go dormant.Then, next November,

bring the plant backupstairs, cut off the deadleaves, repot in a slightlylarger pot, and water,repeating the growingprocess you are nowstarting. As an amaryllisbulb becomes larger overthe years, it may producetwo or even three flowerspikes during the bloom-ing period, each one withseveral huge flowers!

Members of the General Assem-

bly clearly voiced their support for

a smoke-free Kentucky bill for the

2015 session last week that mirrors

previously failed legislation in 2014.

Denouncing the argument that a

smoke-free bill prohibiting smoking

in public places would kill business,

Brent Cooper, a business owner

from northern Kentucky, said not

only are businesses prospering

across the Ohio River in Cincinnati

with a smoke-free law, but that the

pubs in Ireland haven’t shut down

since the country put a ban on

smoking in the workplace 10 years

ago.Many legislators conferred that

public smoking was indefensible in

Kentucky given the state’s bad

health ratings compared to other

states throughout the U.S.

According to testimony from

Wayne Meriwether, CEO of Twin

Lakes Regional Medical Center,

second-hand smoke is just as dan-

gerous for those that don’t smoke.

all Kentuckians smoke. We lead the

DEATHS

Something in ...something out

As the end of theyear rapidly ap-proaches it might betime to clear someclosets and book-shelves and clutter ingeneral. It is the timeof year when giftsarrive and gestures ofkindness abound.

While receivingnew items and treatsis always fun, some-times it is not funtrying to figure outwhere to store or usethem. Take a fewhours to go throughtoys and closets andclear some space fornew items.

Gently used toyswith all of theirpieces and in workingorder may be donatedto thrift stores orshelters. Hospitalsand children’s homesmay also accept thesedonations. Tie a stringsecurely around thebox to ensure none ofthe pieces are lost intransit. Bag smallpieces in resealablebags if appropriate. Ifthe toy requires bat-teries, stick a pack ofnew ones in with theitem.

Clothes that nolonger fit will be wel-comed at thriftstores.

Extra gloves, mit-tens, scarves and hatsare always needed at

localshelters.

Howmanyblanketsarestored inyourclosets?Sheltersin thearea arealways

looking for warmwraps and blankets toshare with clients. Ifthe blankets are tooworn and shabby thelocal animal sheltermay find them useful.

Animal shelterswill often accept worntowels and sheets.

Work toward thegoal of one new itemin, one old item out.There is a sayingcredited to comedianSteven Wright thatreminds us “You can’thave everything.Where would we putit?” With that in mindconsider spendingsome time now orga-nizing what you al-ready have and mak-ing room for itemsthat might be arriv-ing.
