B1 RITA’S KITCHEN Preserve summer in a jar with blackberry jam. B3 BELLEVUE — It was almost 17 years ago, but Missy Jenkins Smith remembers the shooting at Heath High School in Padu- cah, Kentucky, as if it were yesterday. Smith, who was critically in- jured during the shooting, vis- ited Bellevue High School Aug. 22 to share her story of surviv- al. “At 15, I remember having that feeling that I was invinci- ble,” she said. “You hear about bad things happening, you see it on TV, but it’s so far away from you. Well, we’re not invin- cible, bad things can happen.” Smith learned that lesson on Dec. 1, 1997. She was a 15-year- old sophomore. It was a typical morning. She and her twin sis- ter rushed to get ready so they could ride to school with a friend. Before the start of class they’d meet with a group of about 30 students for prayer in the lobby of Heath High School. She talked and laughed with her friends, and then prayer began. As they said “Amen,” 14- year-old Michael Carneal ran- domly fired a .22-caliber semi- automatic pistol. Three stu- dents were killed. Five were in- jured.. Smith spoke in detail about the moments that followed. “I had no clue what was go- ing on,” she recalled. “First I saw a girl shot in the head and fall to the ground. I kept think- ing this is not real. I didn’t feel the bullet that hit me. My body became numb and I couldn’t hear. I felt myself floating to the ground.” Smith remembers her twin sister hovering over her to pro- tect her as gunfire continued. She recounted the courageous efforts of an algebra teacher who sat with her, encouraging her to keep her eyes open. “I learned that day that my teachers thought so much of the students at Heath,” she said. “That day our teachers became our moms and dads. I hope that’s a message to you guys, your teachers love you and care about you so much.” Surviving the gunfire was only half the battle. Smith went on to share what it was like learning she would be paralyz- ed from the waist down for the rest of her life. “When I learned that I was paralyzed I was OK with it,” she said. “I was OK with it be- cause I realized how blessed I was to be a live. The bullet went through my left shoulder and bounced through my body missing every vital organ but a lung and my spinal cord. It came out of my right lower back. “I realized I had been given a second chance at life.” Smith said she made a deci- sion that she was going to choose to be happy with this second chance and make the most out of it. She has. For 10 years she served as a youth counselor and wrote a book about her ex- perience and now travels to speak to students across the country. “This is something I need to do,” she said. “It’s important and I feel like I’m making a dif- ference.” Smith, 32, now married with two children, said she wants to make a difference in the lives of teenagers. She encouraged Bellevue students to not accept bullying. Carneal had been bul- lied for years and has said this is what prompted him to open fire on his fellow students. “I don’t think we realize the power of our words and how much they impact a person that moment and for the rest of their lives,” she said. Smith said over the years, she’s had students who had bul- lied Carneal apologize to her. They feel guilty, she said, but it wasn’t their fault, it was ulti- mately Carneal’s choice. Even he has apologized, and she’s forgiven him. “We didn’t know then what we know now about bullying,” she said to the Bellevue high schoolers. “We hope you learn from our mistakes and you re- fuse to be a bully or allow bully- ing to occur.” Bellevue High School Prin- cipal Dave Eckstein said the presentation resonated with his students. “We really believe in having assemblies like this that are meaningful for our kids,” he said. “This one was outstand- ing.” Freshman Julia Rardin, 14, said she thought Smith’s pres- entation was “touching.” “What she’s gone through was so traumatic,” she said. “I’m happy she’s so positive. Her speaking made me really realize that life is precious and shouldn’t be taken for grant- ed.” Rardin said she doesn’t think bullying is a big issue at Bellevue High School, and if she saw someone being bul- lied, then she’d do something – talk to an adult or stand up for the person – to make it stop.

This year’s nine 4-H Ken- tucky State Fair blue ribbon winning projects are the most in a long time from Campbell County, said Owen Prim, Camp- bell County extension agent for 4-H youth development. “So, we’re excited to bring them back and show them off at our fair,” Prim said. Typically, there are one or two Campbell County 4-H state award winners, he said. This year’s state fair was Aug. 14-24. The Alexandria Fair, in its 158th year, is Aug. 27 to Sept.1. “So, we’re excited to bring them back and show them off at our fair,” he said. A $100,000 grant from the Kentucky Department of Agri- culture helped pay for the new 4,400-square-foot exhibit hall, said fair board director Linda Bowers, of Cold Spring. “We’re really excited,” Bow- ers said. Adding the exhibit hall in- creases the space to show vege- tables, photography, sewing and other displays, she said. Building the hall also created a shady space between two fair- grounds buildings that has been lacking, she said. Tables will be set up for people to sit and relax, Bowers said. Growing up in Alexandria, Bowers said the fair is a big tra- dition for her entire family. “In 64 years, I have never missed a fair,” she said. “Not one night – not one minute. It’s in my blood.” The fair, if not the oldest county fair in Kentucky, is the longest-running fair on the same spot. The fairgrounds, pri- vately owned by the fair board, has been on the same spot since 1856. The annual fair features a se- ries of horse shows, carnival rides, pageants and games for children including a greased pig catching contest.

FORT THOMAS — A trioof Highlands MiddleSchool students spentpart of their summer asmembers of an interna-tional peace delegation.

The studentswere par-ticipating in the summerpeacecampandexchangetrips as members of theCincinnati chapter of theCISV (Children’s Interna-tional Summer Village)program. Taylor Hosea,12, spent 28 days inAskoy,Norway, with children

from11 other countries inaCISV“Village”campatalocal school. Isaac Bas-sett, 11, of Fort Thomasand group leader KateCalhoun of Florence willtravel as part of a Cincin-nati group delegation tomeet with children from12 other countries in aCISV Village program inLucknow, India, fromDec. 28 through Jan. 22,2015, said Kay Freyberg-er of Fort Thomas.

Hosea enjoysmaking friendsworldwide

Hosea said she now

regularly texts and talkswith friends she made in-cluding Nanuela of CostaRica, Cata fromGermanyand Jenny of Norway.

“My favorite person isfrom Finland,” Hoseasaid. “Her name is Nora.”

During the camp, chil-dren from each nationplayed trivia games abouteach country and did cul-tural presentations abouttheir dances, foods andother customs, she said.One of the U.S. presenta-tionswastoplayagameofbaseball with childrenfrom the other 11 coun-tries.

“It’s basically if you

make friends around theworld you learn abouttheir cultures and way oflife you can make peace,”Hosea said.

Most of the childrenfrom the other countriesspoke English fluently orvery well, and that wassurprising, she said. Thedifferences between thechildren were only intheir cultural heritage,Hosea said.

“I thought they’re justlike us,” she said. “Theydo things just like us.They like to be treatedlike usWe all just don’t dothe same things.”

Christie Hosea, Tay-lor’s mother, said shegrew up traveling toplaces, including MachuPicchu in Peru, with herfamily.

“Evenwith allmy trav-els, I had never experi-enced what she has be-cause she’s with kids herage,” she said.

Parents and their chil-dren have to apply for ad-mission to the CISV pro-grams, and Taylor is hop-ing to be part of the Inter-change two-weekexchange program nextyear.

ALEXANDRIA — Thom-asComerandAustinZalacare almost at the end oftheir course.

The two teens renovat-ed the disc golf course atAlexandria CommunityPark for their Eagle Scoutprojects.

The course will be ded-icated by the AlexandriaPark and RecreationBoard at 9 a.m. Sept. 13 atthe park located on Alex-andria Drive.

The first 40 guests willreceive free playing discsand commemorativescore cards. The ribbon-cutting ceremony will befollowed by a nine-holeround of disc golf, andthree score cards will bedrawn for prizes.

Comer and Zalac, ofBoy Scout Troop 96, start-ed planning their projectsin March, organizingsteps, recruiting volun-teers to help and supervis-ingthedayofconstructionfrom start to finish.

“It’s a big project. It’s alot to take on for just ustwo,” said Comer. “I’mgladwe got it done.”

Zalac said approxi-mately45peoplecameoutto help them, and they’dlike to thank the familymembers, friendsandoth-er Scouts who participat-ed.

The nine-hole coursewas completely rede-signed and renovated,with help from Tim Web-ster, an avid disc golfer, aswell as Fred Salaz and

Adam Jones, both profes-sional course designers.

Previously, Webstersaid, “It’s a nice little parkwith ball field, fishinglakes and walking trails,and they’re just going tobe opening it up to encour-agemore use of the park.”

He said the Scouts re-usedtheholebasketsfromthe existing course at thepark, but they improvedthe course by “planning anew layout that’smore ac-cessible, built around theexistingwalking trails.”

Comer’s project in-volved rebuilding tee box-es and replanting the holebaskets.Zalacbuiltbench-es at each hole and infor-mative kiosks.

Before the courseopens, the Scouts willplace stabilizing mats ineach tee box and install in-formational signs at eachtee.Zalacwillputupanewinformational kiosk with

disc golf information bythe fishing pier and anoth-er kiosk for the course,whichwillalsohavearockwall. Both will be land-scaped.

Zalac said theydecidedto renovate the course be-cause it’s close to homeand they both like sports.Comer said, “It was hardwork, but it wasworth it.”

According to the DiscGolfAssociation, online atwww.discgolf.com, morethan 2,500 disc golfcourses exist throughoutthe United States, and thesport is growing.

“Disc golf is similar to

regular golf; however, in-stead of using golf clubsandballsaimingforahole,disc golf players use golfdiscs and aim for a discpole hole, a pole extendingup from the ground withchains and a basketwherethe disc lands,” accordingto thewebsite.

Like regular golf, play-ers compete to finish eachhole with the fewest num-ber of throws, andcoursestypically have nine or 18holes. The player with thelowest scorewins.

CRESCENT SPRINGS — Afterdoubling enrollment to 100 stu-dents over the past six years,the Northern Kentucky Mon-tessori Academy installed anew security system before thestart of school this year.

A one-room school prior to2009, NKMA has since quadru-pled in size through two expan-sions to 10,000 square feet. Theschool, at 2625 Anderson Road,has four classrooms and a mul-tipurpose space for music,lunch and after school pro-grams. There is also an outdoorplayground. The school servespreschool through sixth grade.For information visitwww.nkmacademy.org.

LisaDieso, director of opera-tions for the school, credits thegrowth of the school to morepeople seeking out the Montes-sori method.

With more development inareas off of Anderson Road,there has been a noticeable in-crease in car and foot traffic,said Dieso. A new security sys-

tem from Honeywell SecurityGroup with a secure entry sys-tem at each doorwas added andthe windows were darkened sopeople cannot see inside, shesaid.

“We wanted to make achange and be proactive in se-curity,” Dieso said.

People, even family mem-bers, wanting entry into thebuilding now have to be buzzedin, shesaid.Therearenosecuri-ty codes given out, and employ-ees access the building withbadges.

Julia Preziosi, head of theschool, said shemakesapointoftalking toparents about thenewsecurity systemwhen they visitfor the first time or check theschool out.

Student safety has alwaysbeen a first priority, but withschool shootings happening, ad-ditional security is a necessitytoday, she said.

“Wealso talkedwithour localpolice and fire departmentsabout lockdownrooms,”Prezio-si said.

Most of the exterior doors tothe school lead from the park-

ing lot to classrooms. Improve-ments to security included:

» Akeyless/auto locksystemhas been installed, and visitorsentering the system must bebuzzed in using an intercomsystem.

» A fire alarm system has

been installed with monitors toalert the fire department at allhours of the day when smokedetectors and notification sys-tems are triggered.

» A panic alarm was in-stalled that alerts the police im-mediately when there is an in-

trusion and security breach.» A video surveillance sys-

tem is still being installed, andso is a fence along thewoodsbe-hind the school.

CAMPBELLCOUNTY—TeamsinCamp-bell Countywonasmanyboys soccer re-gional championships last year as theycan: two. Those teams are hoping for arepeat performance this season and oth-ers are hoping to knock them off.

Highlandswon the Ninth Region andBrossart the10th, and they face compet-itive fields this year as they try to do itagain.

“There are a lot of strong teams inNorthernKentucky, and there should besome really good games,” said High-lands coach Matthew Winkler, whosesquad survived a gauntlet of deadlocksand postseason overtimes in 2013 to wina regional title.

Highlands lost firepower but returnsfive starters, including goalkeeperNickBreslin, a returning coaches’ associa-tion all-star.

The Bluebirds tied Scott 2-2 to beginthe season with goals from Brady Ge-senhues andLoganGroneck.Gesenhuesassisted on Groneck’s marker.

Three top scorers are back for New-port Central Catholic and head coachMike McDonald. Defender Jacob Hen-sley, a 2013 first-team all-state pick, andkeeper Paul Grosser, a first-team localall-star, are the base of the Thorough-breds’ staunch defense. Patrick Louis isa topmidfielder and assist man and wasfirst-team all-region. NCC, 14-5-1, isranked second in Northern Kentuckyand has been in the regional final forthree straight years.

“We look to rebuild around four re-turning starters,” McDonald said. “Af-ter losing toHighlands in the regional fi-nals last year the team is eager to getback on the pitch and play some games.This year’s schedule is the toughest todate, so we will have to be on our gameevery game. “

Bishop Brossart looks to remain acontender in the 10th Region despiteheavy graduation losses. Brossart, thedefending All “A” Classic state champi-on, returns more than a dozen playerswith significant experience, includingMark Goller, Jon Henn and goalkeeperJeff Paulin. The Mustangs have 10 sen-iors overall.

For an ever-growingorganization like the Cin-cinnati Saints, the off-field success of the 2014National Premier LeagueSoccer season is in manyways even more valuablethan the on-field results.

The Saints finished the2014 season with a 3-10-1record.Theyalsoenjoyedtheir first season playinghome games at Taft HighSchool’s Stargel Stadiumand hope to capitalize onthe excitement createdby the FIFA World Cup.

“Considering theawareness of what we’retrying to do and trying tobuild, I’d say it was a suc-cessful season,” Saintsowner David Satterwhitesaid. “We’re trying to dothings differently thanother teams before us.”

First-year head coachDavid Wall would haveliked to see more victo-ries, but he was pleasedwith the Saints’ progressboth on and off the field.

“The season has beenas success, as with it be-ing the first year in theNPSL, I felt we weremore than competitivewith theplaying squadwehad,” said Wall. “Theplayers worked hard andtransitionedwell to life inthe fourth division of soc-cer in the U.S.”

Wall hopes to seescheduling changes thatwould help avoid wearand tear on the players.Instead of back-to-backgames, he would preferthe games be spread outeach week and the seasonextended to 28 games.The consecutive gamesand schedule heavy withearly season road match-es had the Saints trying toplay catch up the rest ofthe season. The Saints en-joyed their new homefield and are looking for-ward to spending moretime playing in front ofCincinnati fans next sea-son.

“Wedidn’t know if any-body would show up withour move to Over-the-Rhine,” Satterwhite said.“Our hope was to getmore people to show up

by moving downtown.”TheWorldCupcreated

a perfect opportunity forthe Saints to promote pro-fessional soccer in Cin-cinnati. The organizationhosted watch parties onFountain Square, with thehelp of sponsor Hoist.The crowds were over-whelming, much largerthan the groups of fanswho watched the 2010World Cup on the square.

“That was our comingout party in the city,” saidSatterwhite. “We provedthat there is a soccercom-munity here.”

Now, the Saints mustcontinue to build on theexcitement created bythose watch parties andthe U.S. Men’s NationalTeam’s success.

“It is very important tohave the staff andplayerscontinue the momentumthat the World Cupbrought to the city by be-ing active not only on thefield but off the field aswell,” said Wall. “Thatwill only enhance ourcommunity relationshipswith our fans and sponsorgroups.”

The Saints will playthe upcoming indoor sea-son the Major Arena Soc-cer League, a newly cre-ated league that com-bines the Saints’ formerleague, the ProfessionalArena Soccer League,with the Major IndoorSoccer League. Arenaleague play begins in lateOctober and continuesthrough March.

“It is going to be supercompetitive. We have togo out and look for somereally talented players tocompete,” Satterwhitesaid. “We are really look-ing to kick it into highgear.”

The next step is for theSaints organization tocontinuemaking its markon the community.Through player appear-ances, soccer clinics andcamps, hospital visits,and charity events, theSaints hope to spreadtheir long term goalsthroughout Cincinnati.

“The club and profes-sional soccer continue tohave a bright future herein the city,” said Wall.

AUGUST 28, 2014 • CAMBELL COUNTY RECORDER • A9

The current Ebola outbreakin Africa has rightfully re-ceived an abundance of mediacoverage due to the increasingnumber of cases and deaths.Events such as this catch thenation’s attention and can in-still fear in many, as peoplewonder if such an outbreakcould happen here.

People’s first instinct tendsto be to fear these emergingdiseases. While it is importantto have an appropriate level ofconcern, it is even more impor-tant to understand the factsabout such diseases. First andforemost: the actions needed tocontain Ebola and prevent itsspread are not new, but ratherare duties that those of us inpublic health carry out everyday.

Ebola poses no substantialrisk to the U.S. general pop-ulation. It is not highly trans-mittable – you must have di-

rect contactwith the bodyfluids of an illpatient fortransmissionto occur. How-ever, there isno approvedcure for Ebola.The only treat-ment is tohydrate thepatient andtreat any other

infections or other health is-sues that develop.

Ebola has spread in Africabecause of cultural practicesand because they lack well-developed systems for infec-tion control, isolation of illpatients and contact tracking.Those systems are robust inthe U.S., including here locallyin Northern Kentucky.

The U.S. public health sys-tem has seen and responded to

such diseases before. As Cen-ters for Disease Control andPrevention Director Dr. TomFrieden notes, in the past dec-ade, the United States has hadfive imported cases of hemor-rhagic fevers similar to Ebola.Each time, the American pub-lic health system identified thecases and through scrupulousinfection control proceduresprevented any one else frombecoming ill.

While the likelihood of anEbola outbreak in the U.S. isslim, we still may see a personwhose symptoms and travelhistory mean that he/she couldhave Ebola and will requiretesting to rule it out. Similarscenarios are playing outacross the country, includingone in Columbus, Ohio, in earlyAugust.

In these cases, trained pub-lic health staff and medicalproviders’ efforts to be pre-

pared for disease outbreakswill be put to use. First re-sponders, public health profes-sionals and hospital staff planand train for such situations.Hospitals have facilities andequipment for infection con-trol. Travelers can bescreened, and should someonebecome ill en route, proce-dures are in place for his/hersafe transport to the hospital.Public health staff are trainedto do investigations to preventthe spread of disease.

Patients and providers mustdo their part to help the healthcare system function at itshighest level, though. If youbecome ill and have traveled toanother country within amonth of the onset of symp-toms, tell your health careprovider – even if he/shedoesn’t ask. You may need toconsider how you seek care aswell. A phone call for screen-

ing could help prevent expo-sure of others in waiting roomsor emergency departments.Providers must be aware ofsymptoms, ask about travelhistory, and keep apprised ofthe situation – the health de-partment is helping to provideinformation to them.

Public health measures likeinfection control, isolation andcontact investigation can andwill stop disease outbreaks.Our region is fortunate to havea strong public health systemof first responders, providers,hospitals, and the health de-partment in place to containdiseases. While we do not an-ticipate putting it to the test inthe case of Ebola, let’s takecomfort in knowing that it’shere if needed.

Dr. Lynne M. Saddler is districtdirector of health at the NorthernKentucky Health Department.

While disease may be new, response is not

Aug. 21 questionShould schools continue to

teach cursive writing?Why orwhy not?

“They should teach readingit, not necessarily writing it.Teaching typing is more practi-cal today.”

John Pile

“They should continue toteach it for the sole fact thatsomeone will have to interpretold documents in the future.You know, from like the 1940sor something. LOL. Maybe notnecessarily writing it, but atleast reading it.”

Jessica Searcy

“Personally, I think theyshould continue teaching andrequiring its use. The practiceof learning good penmanshipalso improves fine motorskills. While it may feel anti-quated, it does have value.”

Brenda Hanus

“Yes. I believe cursive writ-ing to still be useful in today’ssociety. How else will theylearn to (properly) sign theirname? If you need to know howto read it, you may as welllearn how to write it. Technol-ogy is great, but it is bound tofail one day and I for one amnot going to allow it to take myhousehold completely over.Furthermore, I am irked by the

fact that good penmanshipdoes not seem to be as impor-tant any more, either. If mysons don’t learn it in school,they will be taught it at home.Thankfully, my oldest is learn-ing it at Longbranch Elemen-tary.”

Beth Payton

“Cursive writing should betaught ... if anyone ever wantsto get into genealogy or re-search historic documents,they would need to know. But,if parents took 20 minutes anight for a week or two, thekids could learn it at home ... itisn’t that hard to teach orlearn!”

Roxie Held

“Yes, because cursive writ-ing is beneficial to learningand integrating communica-tion between the two hemi-spheres of the brain.”

Carrie Cox

“Yes, for basic reasons –reading it (sometimes my kidscannot read what I write) andfor signing legal documents(checks, contracts, etc).”

Jolene Benedict

“Bare minimum, teach themhow to sign their name. Mysixth-grader is clueless onthat.”

Alice Tranter Albrinck

“I think they should teachboth the reading and writing ofit. I gave two high school grad-uates money for graduationand received thank you notesthat looked like they werewritten by a second-grader. Iwould have been so embar-rassed for my child. It’s sad.”

Kim Struewing

“How will they be able toread historical documents,such as the Constitution? Ofcourse they should learn it! Apart of history requires it!”

Julee Ellison

“A personal finance classshould be mandatory for allhigh schoolers to graduate.”

Jessica Searcy

“Cursive reading and writ-ing should be at least offered.As others have said historicaldocuments, signatures andleast we forget that pricelesssignature baseball. With no

cursive reading being taughthow would we know whosesignature it was? That part wassupposed to be funny but may-be when you really think aboutit, it’s not.”

Sheri Brown

“If the school system wantsto move away from teachingchildren how to spell correctlybecause most computer soft-ware has spellcheck what isthe point in teaching cursivewhen the children will be doingmost of their work on a com-puter? Time spent that wouldhave been spent teaching thisskill could be used to educatechildren in other matters suchas grammar.”

Jen Christen

“Most computers also havea grammar check. Teachingthem how to speak correctlyand use words properly is adifferent story.”

Roxie Held

“They will need to know itsomeday and they will besmarter for it.”

John Scales

“No, dumb them down somemore. That way we will havetotal government and corpo-rate control.”

John Bernard

“No need to teach cursive. It

is useless now days.”James Bartley

“Yes, it’s more than learningto write beautifully, it’s aboutfine motor skills, concentra-tion, and ability to read deco-rative fonts.”

Lou Hozeska

“Yes! If the teachers are not‘particular’ about penmanshipas they were when I wastaught then there is plenty oftime to teach how to read,write and type it.”

Lindsey Martin

“Yes. We still need to readcursive and sign our namesand a signature is as unique asa personality.”

Terri Connor

“Cursive writing is not yetobsolete, so we should keepteaching it. Perhaps we couldeliminate Roman numeralsinstead.”

Mary Foster

“Yes, it’s taught in secondand third grade. By fourthgrade most students are al-ready experts at writing it.”

Brian Nagy

“But if we eliminate teach-ing Roman numerals, how willwe know which Super Bowlwe’re watching?!? ;P”

We’re back to normal,whatever normal is, aftercoming home from vaca-tion.

What a special time wehad spending time inGlenLake, Michigan, with twoof our kids andgrandkids,then visiting our son, Joe,and his family in bothOlympia, Washington,

and Belle-vue, Ne-braska. Wedid lots ofsightsee-ing andgoodeatingin between,too.

Duringour visit toOlympia,Inge, Joe’s

wife, mentioned that wildblackberries were ripe.The word “wild” grabbedme right away. “The ber-ries are organic andhuge,” Ingesaid.Wehead-ed out to her secret berrypatch and I couldn’t be-lievemy eyes, really. Big-ger than huge, ripe, sweetblackberries every-where!Check out the pho-to of Little Jaide, Inge andJoe’s granddaughter whohelpedpick, andyou’ll seewhat Inge meant.

We spent a fun daymaking thebest blackber-ry jam ever and broughtjars of it to granddaugh-ters Anna and Tulia in Ne-braska, plus I tuckedenough jars in our trunkto share with Cincinnatifamily and friends.

Homemade‘summer in a jar’blackberry jam

When thewinter windshowl and you open a jar of

this jam, the aroma andmemories of a sunnysum-mer’s day will linger.

Measure accurately.For blackberry peachjam, substitute finelychopped, peeled peachesfor some of the blackber-ries – 2 cups will do it.

5 cups crushed black-berries,mashedwithpo-tatomasher

4 tablespoons lemonjuice

1 box (1.75 oz.) drypectin

7 cups sugar9 jelly jars (8 ounces

size) with rings and lids,sterilized

I sterilize my jars byplacing in a pot of hot wa-ter, then bringing that to aboil andcontinue toboil15minutes. I then turn theheat off but leave the jarsin. For the rings and seals,don’t boil, just keep in hotwater. Now some folkslike to put the jars, etc.through the dishwasherand keep them hot.

Place berries, lemonjuice and pectin in a verylarge pan over high heat,stirring constantly. Whenmixture comes to a fullboil, add sugar all at once,stirring constantly. Bringback to full hard boil, onethat cannot be stirreddown, again stirring con-stantly. Then time for 1minute.

Remove from heat andladle into clean, hot jars,leaving 1/4” headspace attop.Wipe rimswith clean,wet cloth. Place seal ontop and secure with ring.

Turn upside down for 5minutes to kill any bacte-ria that may linger on lidand to form a vacuumseal. Turn upright. You’llhear little “pings” as the

jars cool. Press your fin-ger in the center of theseal. You should not beable to push the center upand down if the seal iscomplete. If it’s not, juststore those in the fridge.The others can be storedin the pantry for up to ayear.

Lemondaffodil delight

Retro recipes are real-ly enjoying a comeback.

Here’s one that’s perfectfor a Labor Day gather-ing. Substitute realwhipped cream for thewhipped topping if youlike. Ditto with the choiceof berries.

14 oz. can sweetenedcondensedmilk

1 can, 8 ounce lemonyogurt

1/3 cup fresh lemonjuice

Zest of lemons usedtomake juice (optional)

12 ounce or sowhipped topping,thawed

1angel food cake, cutinto 1 inch cubes

1 generous cup slicedfresh strawberries

1 generous cup freshblueberries

1 generous cup freshraspberries

Handful sliced or sliv-ered almonds, toasted

Whisk together milk,yogurt, lemon juice, andzest. Fold in 2 cups ofwhipped topping. In 3quart trifle bowl or deepsaladbowl, layera thirdofcake, a third of lemonmixtureandthestrawber-

ries.Repeatcakeand lem-on mixture layers. Topwith blueberries. Repeatcake and lemon mixture.Top with raspberries.Spread remaining top-ping over, sprinkle withalmonds. Cover and re-frigerate for at least 8hours.

NOTICEPlease take notice that Duke Energy Kentucky, Inc. has applied to the Kentucky Public Service Commission for approval torevise its Demand Side Management (DSM) rate for electric service and gas service for residential and commercial customersand add new products for its DSM program available to customers. Duke Energy Kentucky’s current monthly DSM rate forresidential gas customers is $0.054918 per hundred cubic feet (ccf) and for non-residential gas customers is $0.000000 perhundred cubic feet. Duke Energy Kentucky’s current monthly DSM rate for residential electric customers is $0.003062 perkilowatt-hour (kWh) and for non-residential customers is $0.001128 per kilowatt-hour for distribution service and $0.000848per kilowatt-hour for transmission service.

Duke Energy Kentucky seeks approval to revise these rates as follows: Duke Energy Kentucky’s monthly DSM rate forresidential gas customers would increase to $0.055020 per hundred cubic feet and for non-residential gas customers wouldremain at $0.000000 per hundred cubic feet. Duke Energy Kentucky’s monthly DSM rate for residential electric customerswould increase to $0.003094 per kilowatt-hour and for non-residential customers would increase to $0.001249 per kilowatt-hourfor distribution service and would remain at $0.000848 per kilowatt-hour for transmission service.

The rate contained in this notice is the rate proposed by Duke Energy Kentucky. However, the Public Service Commission mayorder a rate to be charged that differs from this proposed rate. Such action may result in a rate for consumers other than the ratein this notice. The foregoing rates reflect a proposed increase in electric revenues of approximately $329 thousand or 0.10% overcurrent total electric revenues and an increase of $6 thousand or 0.01% over current gas revenues.

A typical residential gas customer using 70 ccf in a month will see an increase of $0.01 or 0.01%. A typical residential electriccustomer using 1000 kWh in a month will see an increase of $0.03 or 0.03%. A typical non-residential electric customer using40 kilowatts and 14,000 kWh will see an increase of $01.69 or 0.13%. Non-residential gas customers and non-residentialelectric customers served at transmission voltage will see no change in their bills from this application.

Any corporation, association, body politic or person may by motion within thirty (30) days after publication or mailing of noticeof the proposed rate changes, submit a written request to intervene to the Public Service Commission, 211 Sower Boulevard,P.O. Box 615, Frankfort, Kentucky 40602, and shall set forth the grounds for the request including the status and interest of theparty. The intervention may be granted beyond the thirty (30) day period for good cause shown. Written comments regardingthe proposed rate may be submitted to the Public Service Commission by mail or through the Public Service Commission’swebsite. A copy of this application filed with the Public Service Commission is available for public inspection at Duke EnergyKentucky’s office at 4580 Olympic Boulevard, Erlanger, Kentucky 41018 and on its web site at http ://www. duke-energy. com.This filing and any other related documents can be found on the Public Service Commission’s website at http://psc.ky.gov.

RABBIT HASH — For 35years, neighbors, friendsand sight-seers have con-verged to celebrate daysgone by with a music fes-tival and a variety of ven-dors that increases this ti-ny town’s population ten-

fold.For Old Timer’s Day, a

full schedule of activitieswill take place betweenthe barn and the RabbitHash General Store be-tween 11 a.m. and 11 p.m.Saturday, Aug. 30.

“People from allaround come to get a tasteof the appetizing food, en-chanting bands and cul-tural people that inhabitRabbit Hash on this mostspecial of days,” said Ter-rie Markesbery, propri-etress of the GeneralStore and organizer ofRabbitHash’sOldTimer’sDay.

Some people like tocome just to pet the may-or, a dog named Lucy Lou.

According to DonClare of the Rabbit HashHistorical Society, theevent started in 1978 as areunion for neighborhoodfolks, where they’d bringa covered dish and sit andtalk about the good olddays.

“It’s morphed into aregular big festival, butit’s still Rabbit Hash. Wehave a good time,” saidClare. “Any proceeds wemake from the raffle andsplit-the-pot, or the silentauction, any proceeds weget go to the Rabbit HashHistorical Society to pre-serve the town. With anall-wooden town next to amajor river, it needs a lotof maintenance. We dothis to take care of thetown and buildings so thisthing can continue.”

A silent auction willtake place inside the

town’s museum.“It’s kind of a big deal,

35 years,” said Markes-bery. “Old Timer’s Dayreally is fun for the wholefamily, and it pays hom-age to the people whohave lived here a longtime.”

She said the barn,which holds dances everyFriday night during thesummer, will host the“Barnival,” full of carni-val games for children.

The stage outside willhost a lineup of bands in-cluding Cincinnati Danc-ingPigs,DowntownCoun-try Band, GMiles and theHitmen, GunpowderCreek,JakeLoganandtheMidnight Riders, Kesh-var Project, Lagniappeand Northside Sheiks.

Parking is limited inthe small town, and Mar-kesbery advises visitorsto leave their coolers be-hind.

Although it’s a lot ofwork, Markesbery saidshe always looks forwardto the festival.

“I just love watchingpeople smile, you know? Ido,” she said. “There’speople of all walks of life.Older people and youngkids, and there’s all kindsof different people here,kind of like bringing thecity to the country.”
