The four tenants are Sleep Number Beds, an Allstate Insur- ance office, and restaurants Cur- rito and Laughing Noodle, said Chris Canarie, vice president of development for the Bellevue- based commercial real estate company Brandicorp, LLC. Construction on the new mini- shopping strip, at the corner of Ted Bushelman Boulevard and Houston Road, is expected to be completed by the end of the month. Canarie said the space will be turned over to the tenants Nov. 1 for their interior improve- ments. “We’re expecting openings at various times around the first of the year,” he said. Canarie also said that Brandi- corp is under contract to pur- chase the parcel of land directly across Ted Bushelman Road. “We’re going to continue de- veloping north on Houston Road,” he said. “We’re pre-leas- ing restaurant and retail space. We estimate that there will be 20,000 to 25,000 square feet of restaurant and retail space. The new Ted Bushelman Road and Aero Parkway is a great corner. There’s lot’s of traffic.” That’s what sparked Currito co-founder Joe Lanni’s attention. “We’re very excited,” Lanni said. “Obviously it’s a growing area and Florence has a wonder- ful mix of drive-by traffic, and residential and office popula- tion. It’s regarded as one of the top trade areas in the Cincinnati area.” Currito also has a location at the Florence Mall that will re- main open, Lanni said. The Cin- cinnati-based restaurant offers a unique take on the burrito bringing patrons new tastes and flavors from all over the world. The Laughing Noodle, part of the White Castle franchise, will make its first introduction to Northern Kentucky with the new location in the Houston Road Shoppes. According to Ja- mie Richardson, vice president of White Castle, this will be the first free-standing Laughing Noodle. The other locations in Springfield and Sharonville are connected to a White Castle. The restaurant offers distinct noodle dishes from Mediterranean to classic mac and cheese. Richardson said, “There’s a great sense of community in Florence from the friendly wa- ter tower to the friendly people. We’re excited to be a part of the community and give people something new to enjoy.” Canarie said he expects the second development to mirror the success of the first Houston Road Shoppes, located directly next door. Drake’s, a sit-down bar and grill, is the final tenant to move in that section of the develop- ment. It is set to open Monday, Oct. 14.

While “safety is paramount,” Earlywine said the county doesn’t want to use more money than is necessary because the bridge is slated for replacement. “Because the bridge is going to be replaced, we want to spend ev- erything that we need to and noth- ing more to get the bridge back in service,” he said.

    Some of his most cher-ished musical experienc-es, however, are those heshad watching the studentsat R.A. Jones perform inconcert.

    I go to all of our con-certs and take pictures. Iblog about the concertsand send tweets, he said.Anytime students are infront of an audience itgives them confidence, itbuilds their self-esteem. Ithelps them go beyondwhat theyre learning intheclassroomtoproduceaproduct that engages ev-

    erybody.Rust, of

    Independ-ence, enjoysbeing a partof that proc-ess. Recent-ly, he re-ceived theKentuckyMusic Educators Associa-tionDistrict 6 Administra-tor of the Year award forhis support of the musicprogram at R.A. Jones.

    The district is com-prised of the eight north-ern-most counties in thestate. Nominations aremade at the annual fallmeeting of the districtsmusic teachers from ele-mentary through highschool.

    My colleagues werejust blown away when Iread the list of reasons tosupport (his) nomination,said DanBarnhill, a musicteacher at R.A. Jones.

    Three other principalswere nominated for theaward, but Rust receivedthe majority of the votes.He is now one of 11 princi-pals who will be up for theState Administrator of theYear award, which will beannounced in February2014.

    Barnhill is in the proc-ess of collecting letters orecommendation fromfel-low teachers, parents andcommunity members.

    Hes been extremelysupportive of what we doin music and thats crucialin school setting where of-ten so many look at musicas just a fun thing, away togive teachers a break,Barnhill said.

    In a timewhen somanyschoolsarecuttingbackoreliminating arts pro-grams, R.A. Jones musicprogram has soared offthe charts.

    Since 2010, the musicdepartment has grownfrom130 students to morethan300students, andnowoffers three bands, twochoirs, three guitar en-sembles and two percus-sion ensembles, Barnhillsaid.

    BOONECOUNTYManygolf-ers at the highest levels of thesporthave toberemindedof theimportanceof theshortgame,be it putts on the green or anyshot to thegreen from100yardsor closer.

    The St. Henry District HighSchool boys golfers have a longunderstanding of how impor-tant those shots are, and theirfocus on that part of the sportwill bring two of them to thestate tournament.

    St. Henry junior Luke To-bergte and senior Colson Hol-land were set to represent theCrusaders at the KHSAA statetournament Oct. 8-9 in BowlingGreen after Recorder printdeadlines.

    Theyre both good kids andtheyre very deserving, St.Henry head coach Jerod Cahillsaid. Theyve worked veryhard.

    Tobergte shot a 73 to claimthird place individually andsnare one of three berths to thestate tourney for those not onqualifying teams. Hollandscored a 79 to get another spot.

    Tobergte, the teamsveteran,won the All A regional lastmonthwith a 75, part of his sev-en top-five finishes in 18-holetournaments this fall. He hadfive medalist honors in dualmatches as well.

    Thebest part is his determi-nation and drive to get better,Cahill said. He doesnt have ahole in his game or anything hedoes particularly amazing.

    One thing that really helpshis score are his shorter shots.

    His chips are really good,Cahill said. That is definitelyhis strength. He spends an houror so on his short game everyday.

    Holland, a senior, has onemedalist honor this year andav-eragesaround40pernineholes.Cahill said he is very strong onthe green and within 100 yards.

    Perhaps the biggest key tohis state berth was a recent dayon the course when he acciden-tally broke his driver, which hehasnt used since.

    His game really changedwhenheusedhis3-woodandputaway his driver, Cahill said. Itturns out he hit his 3-wood bet-ter.

    Cooper senior Collin Smithshot a 79 as well to snare one ofthe three individual berths. TheJaguar becomes the fourth dif-ferent player in school historyto qualify for state. It is his firststate berth.

    A10 FLORENCE RECORDER OCTOBER 10, 2013

    Pardon the incorrect gram-mar, but to hear the phrase,Im done with that, one maythink, Im done with that atti-tude, the dead-end job, thedeteriorating marriage, thatpersistent bad mood, thatmessy room, the constant bick-ering.

    But how about lookingback? When will you be donelooking back? Looking backon the childhood filled withabuse and neglect? Looking

    back on whatcouldve orshouldvebeen? Or, look-ing back on allthe good timesand agonizingover howthings used tobe?

    When willyou be donelooking backon all the

    things you wish you wouldhave done, or didnt do? Whenwill you be done looking backon all the things you wish youwould have said? Or didntsay?

    Thats the kind of lookingback I want to be done with.The Christian pop group,Newsboys, says it best:

    Im not looking back; Imdone with that

    I wanna live with abandonGive you all that I amEvery part of my heart,

    JesusI place in your handsI wanna live with abandonIts not scripture, but it sure

    is sound advice. And God callsus to a life of abandon as well.Paul reminds us in Hebrews,Since we are surrounded byso great a cloud of witnesses,let us lay aside every weight,and the sin which so easilyensnares us, and let us runwith endurance the race that isset before us. (Hebrews 12:1)

    How can you lay asideevery weight, and live withabandon for Jesus?

    Will you answer Gods callto reach out and finally sayyes to adopt a child whodesperately needs a lovinghome?Will you put down thebottle and pick up the biblejust for tonight? Will you shutout the lies of the world andopen your ears and listen to thepromises of your savior? Willyou stop and look the homelessperson in the eye instead ofjust driving on by? Will youclose the laptop, put your childup in your lap (no matter howold they are) and ask them howtheir day was?

    Take a step toward living inabandon today, give Jesus allthat you are. Place every partof your heart into his hands,and watch him lead and guideyour every step. As his word sobeautifully puts it, Call to me,and I will answer you, andshow you great and mightythings which you do not know.(Jeremiah 33:3)

    By the way, my first steptoward living in abandon? Iscored tickets to go and see theNewsboys, at the Taft nextweekend, and I have a date:with my 10-year old son.

    With our partial govern-ment shutdown, its very un-comfortable because of thecontext, with the House decid-ing not to fund Obamacare.

    However, no doubt, thegovernment buck starts in theHouse of Representatives, thepeoples house. The Orig-ination Clause in Article 1 ofthe United States Constitutionsays so: All bills for raisingrevenue shall originate in theHouse of Representatives ...

    What does this reallymean? You cant get any clos-er to original intent than thewords of James Madison, theman who drafted much of theConstitution. He touted theOrigination Clause as beingcrucial to reigning in big gov-ernment. He wrote, in Feder-alist 58:

    The house of representa-tives can not only refuse, butthey alone can propose thesupplies requisite for thesupport of government. Theyin a word hold the purse; thatpowerful instrument by whichwe behold ... and finally re-ducing, as far as it seems tohave wished, all the over-

    grown prerog-atives of theotherbranches ofthe govern-ment. Thispower overthe purse mayin fact beregarded asthe most com-plete andeffectual

    weapon with which any con-stitution can arm the immedi-ate representatives of thepeople ...

    To be clear, heres how itworks. The House sets thespending. Some spending, likesocial security, is mandatory.Other spending, like Obama-care, is not. If the Senate andthe President dont agree,wont compromise and wontnegotiate, the Senate andPresident (regardless of polit-ical party) have chosen toshut down the government.This is fact, not opinion.

    Whether you agree or dis-agree with the Houses deci-sion, it had every right toaddress Obamacare spending.

    The law will cost well over atrillion dollars in the nextdecade. With the OriginationClause and founding fatherMadisons words in mind, Iask, United States House,where have you been most ofmy life?

    United States House, ourchildren will be paying backyour debt of nearly $17 trilliontheir entire lifetimes. Thismatters because, among otherreasons, you now spend twiceas much on interest as you doinvesting in infrastructurewhich our children will need.If you wont listen to me, may-be you will listen to ThomasJefferson, It is incumbentfor every generation to pay itsdebts as it goes.

    What silver lining cancome from a painful, partialshutdown? A generous par-ent would have said, if theremust be trouble, let it be inmy day, so that my child mayhave peace. Thomas Paine,Common Sense. Arent wemorally obliged to accepttrouble in our day, includingtemporary, partial shutdowns,if thats what it takes to stop

    incurring debt so that ourchildrens children may havea fresh start?

    To our next generations, weowe you an apology. It wasntour money to spend, but weBaby Boomers kept electingHouses which did it anyway.At the highest levels of soci-ety, we still celebrate what wecan get from the federal gov-ernment. But its really com-ing from you. Sorry wewanted it all, we wanted itnow, and weve been willing toname call to get it.

    As a voting adult, I didntfully grasp the Houses Con-stitutional duty to take astand, nor did I understandgovernment shutdowns. Evennow, I remain uncomfortableand conflicted with this par-ticular shutdown. I used tolove telling our children ig-norance is no excuse. Imafraid that this embarrassingshoe is now on my foot.

    BURLINGTON Open thedoor, will you! Dale Shaw ofFlorence, jokingly yells toBoone County staff and volun-teers on hand at the countys an-nual senior citizens picnic.

    He has been waiting since6:30 a.m., to enter the picnicSept. 11 at the Boone CountyFairgrounds. With minutes leftuntil the crowd can enter, hestands at the entrance and con-tinues the good-natured heck-ling.

    Thenativesaregettingrest-less! he jokes.

    Theeventbegan26yearsagoin the back yard of then-Com-missioner Irene Patrick as apotluck dinner. According to aprevious announcement, itsnow one of the states largestevent for seniors.

    Shaw says this is the sixthyear he and his wife have cometo the picnic. They come pre-pared, and arrived this morn-ing with coffee and doughnuts.

    He likes the camaraderie.Calling it just really a lovely

    way to spend a day, he said itsmore or less to bewith the peo-ple and they have some reallylovely entertainment. Ill keepcoming back.

    At just 9 a.m., when guestsbegin to enter the fairgrounds,the morning is already muggy,promising to be a hot one.

    As picnic-goers enter,theyregivenwristbands, stick-ers for items from some of thevendors and a tote bags.

    Boone County Judge-execu-tive GaryMoore greets the pic-nics guests.

    Justwithin the entrance, pol-iticians (and would-be politi-cians) stand, shaking hands andsharing promotional items,while elsewhere county staffhand out coffee and doughnuts.

    Seniors can gather informa-tion from a number of vendors,play games, treat themselves toKona Ice or even get a flu shot.

    Its a way for the county togive back to the seniors who

    paved the way, said Sheri Neu,Boone County Fiscal Court ex-ecutive assistant. We arewhere we are because of thecontributions theyhavemadetothe community.

    With the picnic falling on theanniversary of the Sept. 11 at-tacks, the day had a strong em-phasis on showing support forfirst responders and militarymembers, she said, as well aspaying respect to thosewho losttheir lives in the attacks.

    Friends Carol Zembrodt andDody Robinson, both of Flor-ence, have been attending thepicnic for more than a decade.

    Its wonderful, said Robin-son.

    The experience, however,was a new one for Ruth Weis-brodt, 73, of Florence, who at-tended for the first time.

    Friends at the senior centertalked her into attending. Theysaid it was a fun day, she said.Weisbrodt attendedwithher 92-year-old mother, Ruth Curren.

    Myrna Murphy of Hebronhas been attending for aboutfiveyearsandtalkedherfriend,Jackie Bowling, also ofHebron,into visiting the picnic for thefirst time.

    Its really the best in North-ern Kentucky, Murphy said.Thepicnic, sheexplained, is laidback andeveryone is very con-genial.

    You have a good time here,she said.

    Judge-executive GaryMoore said its one of his favor-ite days.

    This is a day where we en-tertain, where we feed andwhere we do other things tomake sure theyre having agreat experience, he said.Thats the least we could do.Onedayforourseniorcitizens.

    The seasons on our littlepatch of heaven are marked bywhats going on outside in ourgardens and what my husband,Frank, is doing with our out-

    side equipment.Right now hessalting thingsaway for thewinter, mean-ing hes servic-ing the tiller,tractor, boat andlawn mowers fora winter rest inthe garage.

    Our bell pep-pers have finally

    ripened, so I was able to addthem to an antipasto tray Imade for a friends rehearsaldinner.

    Easy antipastoNeed a stunning and deli-

    cious appetizer? An antipastotray fills the bill. It is not onlyappealing to the eye, buttheres something on the trayfor everybody.

    Go to your olive bar and asklots of questions. I went to theEastgate Jungle Jims olive barand was able to sample what-ever I wanted. This will help inchoosing the right ingredientsfor your budget and guests. Idid choose olives without pits.Since prosciutto is expensive, Ibought a few slices to garnishand folded them over on top ofthe antipasto. I also sprinkleda can of chickpeas on top. Thenice thing about this recipe isthat it can be assembled a dayahead. For the sauce, I useCaesar salad dressing withfresh herbs stirred in. I drizzlethe dressing on right before Iserve it.

    My favorite two-waybrisket

    Brisket is a cut of meatfrom the lower chest or breastof beef. It is amazingly flavor-

    ful, but tough, so slow cookingis a must. Either way you cookthis in the oven or in a slowcooker the brisket turns outtender and so delicious. Servewith mashed potatoes or noo-dles.

    3 pounds beef brisket2 cups chili sauce1 cup brown sugar, packed1 cup beef broth1 very large onion, sliced14 teaspoon ground cloves3 bay leavesSalt and pepper to taste

    Oven: Preheat oven to 325degrees. Combine chili sauce,sugar and broth. Pour abouthalf of this in the bottom ofroasting pan. Place brisket onsauce, fat side up. Distributeonion, cloves and bay leavesover brisket. Pour rest ofsauce over. Cover and bake

    50-55 minutes per pound oruntil meat is fork tender. Re-move brisket from pan andremove bay leaves and wholecloves. Cut brisket across thegrain. Skim off any fat fromtop of sauce. Pour sauce overbrisket (or put sauce in refrig-erator overnight and the fatwill congeal on top for easyremoval. Then reheat withbrisket in 375 degree oven,covered, or in microwave).

    Slow cooker: I like to cookmine 9-12 hours or so on low,until meltingly tender.

    Perfectly grilledsalmon/seafoodfollowing the 70/30 rule

    Have the grill hot, lightlybrush both sides of fish withoil, and start grilling skin sideup with the grill closed. (Or

    put a disposable pan over thefish). Leave it alone until about70 percent of the fish is doneon first side. Youll know it bythe looks and also if it willrelease easily. This allows fishto form a nice crust. Turn itand finish cooking. The rule ofabout 7-10 minutes per inch ofthickness works, also. Startwith 7 minutes and go fromthere.

    Readers want to know:Honing steels: My honing/

    knife steel doesnt work any-more. Should I replace it?Run your thumbnail aroundthe circumference of the tool.If you can still feel grooves,your steel is still useful. It ismagnetized to pick up micro-scopic fillings that come offthe knifes blade. Its a goodidea to rub the steel with a

    cloth after use so groovesdont get clogged. Now unlessthe honer has diamond chips init, most steels wont sharpen adull knife (they restore theknifes bite by straighteningthe microscopic teeth at theedge that fold with use). Noweven if your honing steel is ingood condition, sometimes aknife doesnt respond to hon-ing. If that happens, its time toget the knife sharpened pro-fessionally.

    Question: Should I goahead and rototill thegarden and apply fertil-izer now for next yearsgarden? I had a lot oftomato and squash prob-lems this year. My gar-den is finished!

    Answer: You canreduce the risk of somecommon problems nextyear by getting rid ofleftover plant debris invegetable, flower andfruit gardening areasthis fall. Several disease-causing fungi and bacte-ria spend the winter onplant debris, and cancause diseases the fol-lowing growing season.Proper garden sanitationnow can combat suchdiseases as early blight,mildews, gray moldfungus and various rootrot and wilt diseaseproblems. To combatdiseases, remove allplants, except wintervegetables or covercrops, from the vegeta-ble garden. It is espe-cially important to com-pletely clean out anddestroy all diseasedplants in vegetable gar-dens and fruit plantings.Carefully dig up andremove decomposingroots to keep them fromreleasing disease-caus-ing microbes into thesoil. Also, remove spentblooms and foliage fromflower gardens andshriveled, mummifiedfruits on or around fruittrees and grapevines.

    Garden debris that isnot severely diseased isa wonderful addition to acompost pile. A good pilewill heat up and com-pletely decompose theremains in a fewmonths.

    Gardeners who de-cide not to remove oldplants should till garden-ing areas this fall tobreak dead materials

    into small-er piecesand thenwork theminto thesoil. Plantdebrisdecom-posesmore rap-idly whenburiedthan when

    left on the soil surface.This reduces popula-tions of disease-causingorganisms that couldcause problems nextyear. Another reason totill the garden in the fallis so it is ready to plantin early March, insteadof having to wait until arainy spring allowsplowing or tilling thegarden.

    Soil test now to see ifyour garden needs phos-phorus, potassium, limeor sulfur. If so, thesecould be applied in thefall. Dont apply nitro-gen now, since it is easi-ly leached by rain andmelting snow and itmight move below theroot zone by next spring.However, due to healthconcerns and food safety

    issues, if livestock ma-nure is to be applied to avegetable garden orstrawberry patch, dothis in the fall for a safespring harvest.

    Drugandalcoholabuseis a problem plaguingNorthernKentucky. Ithasslowly crept its way intomany of the middle andhigh schools affecting thesafety and health of stu-dents across the region.While this issue is affect-ing many families andcommunities, there hasnot been a widespread ef-fort to help bring aware-ness to the growing prob-lem.

    This is why NicholsonChristian Church, 1970Walton Nicholson Pike,Independence, is hostingthe Drug House OdysseyWednesday-Friday, Oct.23-25, at the church.

    The goal is to bringawareness to the commu-nity about the significantimpact drug and alcoholabuse has on their fam-ilies and schools. Theevent is structured toshow visitors realistic sit-

    uations that happen as aresult of making poorchoices.

    In addition, the churchwill also host severalagencies that provide in-formation and counselingfor those seeking waysthey can help themselvesand others.

    The event is expectedtobe the largest of itskindthis area has seen in overfive years.

    According to KentonCountyPoliceChiefBrianCapps, drug use and traf-ficking has become a

    prevalent problem thathas seen an exponentialincrease over the pastthree years.

    Unfortunately, Ken-ton County leads the statewith 79% of the heroin ar-rests, saysCapps. Manytimes nowadays, the com-munity finds it more con-venient to turn a blind eyeinstead of getting in-volved. And thats a roadthat we dont need to godown.
