FORT THOMAS — While manypeople put a lot of time and effortinto carving pumpkins for FortThomas’s annual Jack-O-LanternWalk, the three made by Hebronresident Sean Flynn were extraspecial.
For anyone who attendedevent, Flynn’s jack-o-lanterns,which were located at the end ofthe walk, were hard to miss, withthe words “Will U Marry MeRach” carved into them.
With the help of those threepumpkins, Flynn, 24, proposed tohis girlfriend, Rachel Plogsted,22, also of Hebron.
Flynn and Plogsted’s story be-gan years ago, when the two be-came friends while attendingConner High School.
After a couple years, Plogstedtransferred to a different highschool, then the two went to dif-
ferent colleges, with Flynn at-tending Western Kentucky Uni-versity and Plogsted attendingCincinnati State.
Onesummerbreak,Flynnsaidhe was invited to a friend’s birth-day party, where he sawPlogstedfor the first time in a while.
“At firstwewerebothabit shyand did not saymuch to each oth-er,” Flynn said. “As Rachel wasgetting ready to leave, I finallywasable togoup to talk toherandasked her out and tomy surprise,she said yes.”
The two began dating, andFlynn said he quickly fell in lovewith Plogsted.
“I had decided after about sixmonths that thiswas thewoman Iwanted to spend the rest of mylife with,” Flynn said. “I had notonly found my best friend, I hadfound the woman who makes mea better man.”
A few months ago, Flynn pur-chased an engagement ring, andbegantrying tocomeupwitharo-mantic way to propose.
Hebron residents Rachel Plogsted and Sean Flynn pose for a picturewith the jack-o-lanterns Flynn used to propose to Plogsted at the FortThomas Jack-O-Lantern Walk. PROVIDED

NEWPORT — Voters struckdown a tax increase passed bythe Campbell County Public Li-brary Board of Trustees to payfor a new South Branch library.
Voters rejected the library taxwith 24,000 votes against the in-crease and14,545votes for the in-crease, according to the unoffi-cial results from the Campbell
County Clerk’s office.“I hope the library board will
take agood look at the results andunderstand that the voter and thetaxpayer has spoken and realizethey do not want the SouthBranch built at this time,” saidLarryRobinson, of Cold Spring, amember of Campbell County’sTea Party.
The Northern Kentucky TeaParty through the took a lead inopposing the tax increase.
The rate increase voters re-jected was 27 percent, and wouldhave cost a property owner $20more per $100,000 of assessed
valuation than they paid in 2011for library property tax.
“Thewordingof theballotwasvery specific that this was tobuild the South Branch,” he said.“The board should take that toheart and listen to the voters andstop all their ongoing planningand processes toward buildingthis branch.”
JC Morgan, director of the li-brary, said the board will have totalk about the Nov. 6 loss and dis-cuss what to do.
“I can’t say anything aboutwhat they will decide becausethey don’t know,” Morgan said.
“It’s a disheartening loss, westill believe the people in south-ern Campbell County deserve alibrary and the equal access thata library in the southern part ofthe county provides,” he said.
In a written statement, Mor-gan said he wants to encourageboth people who voted for andagainst the tax increase to visit alibrary.
The Northern Kentucky TeaParty, under the name of theNorthern Kentucky Group,erected signs asking voters tosay no to a 27 percent increase.The public library was legally
forbidden from campaigning asan entity under Kentucky law,and the volunteer group Vote forLibraries led the charge to voteyes. Signs from Vote for Librar-ies asked voters to “Vote for yourlibrary.”
A sign on the property wherethe new library is proposedstates it will be opening in thespring of 2013. The library pur-chased the land at 1045 ParksideDrive, south of Alexandria in2007, and has proposed the con-struction of a two-story 28,0000-square-foot building for $5 mil-lion.

After deciding on thefall as the perfect time,Flynn said he looked forideas on engagement web-sites and blogs, where hesaw the idea of carvingpumpkins, which he decid-ed toputhis ownspinon, bydoing it at the Jack-O-Lan-tern Walk.
“I found the phone num-ber for the Fort Thomaspark and called,” Flynnsaid. “The assistant direc-tor instantly agreed to helpme and was thrilled to be apart of it.”
While the couple hadplanned on attending thewalk for a couple days,Plogsted came home fromwork and wasn’t in thegreatest mood and didn’tfeel like going to the walk.
“Ihadareallybaddayatwork, I had a massive mi-graine and to top it all off,we are trying to get a houseand have been stressingabout money,” Plogstedsaid. “Sean, beinghis sweetand cheerful self, talkedme into going and toldme itwould be fun.”
After waiting nearly anhour in line for the walk,Flynn said the two startedalong the lit trail and hewas constantly checking tomake sure the ring in hispocket was still there.
Near the end , where hispumpkins were located,Flynn started to fall behindPlogsted instead of walk-ing next to her.
Plogsted said she sawthe pumpkins from a dis-tance, but didn’t realizewhat they said until she gota little closer.
“At this point, my jawdropped and I looked tomyright to ask Sean what wasgoingon,buthewasn’t nextto me,” Plogsted said. “Iturned around and he wason the ground on oneknee!”
Flynnsaidhewasable toget out “Rachel” before sheput her hand out and said“Yes.”
“I said yes without hesi-tation because he really ismy best friend,” Plogstedsaid. “He always puts myfeeling first and no matterwhat obstacles we have toclimb over, he is the onewho takes my hand andgives me a push over thewall.”

NEWPORT — Created in2002, the Campbell CountyConsolidated DispatchCenter needs a permanentfix to how it is funded.
Executive DirectorDale Edmondson said hehas asked county leaders
and the center's foundingcities of Fort Thomas andNewport to come togetherthis year and find a way tofindaway to fund theannu-albudgetas traditional rev-enue streams dwindle.
"Clearly, CampbellCounty will have to decidewhat to do," Edmondsonsaid.
The center handles all911callsmade in thecountyand dispatches firefight-ers, medics and police toemergencies.
When the center wasstarted by consolidatingFort Thomas, Newport andcounty dispatch centers in2002 the funding systemused was charging homephone lines, he said.
Growthofnewlandlineswas at 3.5 percent annuallyin 2002, and shortly afterthat the cell phone industryhad explosive growth, Ed-mondson said.
"Now we're reaching apoint where there are awhole lot of people in theyounger generation whodon't have a hard line andprobably never will," hesaid.
In 2008, the dispatchcenter received about $1.9million revenue, and thathas declined annually aspeople get rid of their hardlines and switch to cell
phones, Edmondson said.The revenue for 2013
will be about $1.6 million,he said.
The drop from 2012funding levels will be a de-crease of about $128,000,Edmondson said.
"And that's just going tocontinue unfortunately," hesaid.
The dispatch center hasa staff of 22 people withfive dispatchers on shift atall times typically, Ed-mondson said. Sometimesthere is a staff of four dis-patchers, he said.
Edmondson and his as-sistant are the only peopleon staff who are not dis-patchers.
In recent years, the dis-patch center has cut twopositions, he said.
"This year we'll actuallybe digging into reserves,"Edmondson said.
Since everything in the911 world is IT-based,
equipment is expensive topurchase and the reservescan only be tapped into fortwo years before they areat zero, he said.
"We can't really be in aposition where we take re-serves tozero,"Edmondsonsaid. "When somethingbreaks here there is notime to go around askingwho pays the bill, becausethework has to be done im-mediately."
In 2005, the charge tolandline phones was in-creased from $2 to $3 perline as more people got ridof their traditional phones,he said.
"We felt that would buyus about five years whileanother funding mecha-nismwas sought," Edmond-son said.
The thinking was thestate legislature was goingto fix the funding mecha-nism because all dispatchcenters are funded the
same way, he said.The legislature hasn't
fixed the situation, and it isclear the decisions will fallto local governments, Ed-mondson said.
A couple of Kentuckycounties recently switched911 billing onto water me-ters instead of land lines tochargehouseholds, he said.
The existing systemcharging phone lines is un-fair because many peopledon't have one anymore,Edmondson said.
"It has become an unfairfunding mechanism," hesaid.
Also, 80 percent of 911calls are now coming infrom wireless telephonesand not hard lines, Ed-mondson said.
Funding the differencein the budget and the reve-nue for one year is a "Band-Aid solution," and what isneeded is a permanent so-lution, he said.
"I expect by the first ofthe year they will decidewhat to put in place for thecoming year," Edmondsonsaid.

People without a highschool diploma find theirway to Campbell County’sGEDinstructorswhentheywant to find a newor betterjob, go to college or enrichtheir life through educa-tional fulfillment.
Getting people into theGED centers in NewportandAlexandria isoneof themost important steps, saidHolly Cetrulo, an adultlearning center instructor.
“That first step is an im-portant step, and it’s scaryto some people,” Cetrulosaid.
At least half of the stu-dents who study for andtake the GED in the Alex-andria center are well past40 including many peopleages 50, 60 and sometimes70, she said. The twoCamp-bell County GED centerswill serve any Kentuckyresident.
“Those individuals areoftenveryafraid tocomein
because they’ll be inaroomfull of teenagers and that’sjust not true,” Cetrulo said.
People oftencome to thecenterbecause the job theyworked at for years is gonebecause a plant has closedand to get trained for a newjob they have to get a GED,she said.
The center has verysmall class sizes and canwork with people individ-ually, Cetrulo said.
“The first thing they dois talk to a certified teacherabout their plans and theirgoals and needs,” she said.
About 200 people obtaintheir GED in CampbellCounty annually, said Ni-chole Kent-Cottongim, di-
rector of the Newport andAlexandria adult learningcenters.
Some people think theGED is an easy exam, butonly 60 percent of high
school seniors are able topass it immediately aftergraduation without addi-tional prep work for theseven-hour exam, she said.
“So, it is not a less than,
and I think that surprisespeople,” Kent-Cottongimsaid.
About 98 percent of col-leges and universities ac-cept the GED credential,and 96 percent of compa-nies accept the GED inplace of high school diplo-ma, she said.
“The most importantthing if I can get one wordout there is they cannottake theGEDonline, unfor-tunately there are a lot ofscams,” she said.
The center also workswith adults who alreadyhave a high school diplomaor GED, she said.
A student this year washaving trouble with theArmed Service test andhad let some of his mathslip since high school, so hetook one of the GED pro-gramshigh level tests sohecould go into the Navy, shesaid. There is a $60 fee totake the GED test, but theprep work at the centersandextra testing isall-free.
“Sometimes people saymy son is in fifth grade andI don’t know how to do thishomework to help him,”she said.
So, someone with a highschool diploma can take aclass on fractions and deci-mals,Kent-Cottongimsaid.
As the economy has got-ten tighter in the economyandjobmarket theneedforcredentials has gottenhigher, she said.
“We’ve seen a steady in-crease in the number ofpeople who are seekingtheir GEDs,” she said.
People who obtain theirGED through the centersare also eligible for a spe-cial ceremony, Kent-Cot-tongim said.

It’s time again to shine alight on lung cancer in theTristate.
Shine A Light on LungCancer, a candlelit vigil tohonor those who havefought the disease, will beheld at 7 p.m.Tuesday,Nov.
13, at Newport on the Lev-ee.
On Nov. 13 more than 40Shine a Light on Lung Can-cer vigils will be heldacross the country.
More than 150,000 peo-ple die from lung cancereach year, according tofacts fromLungCancerAl-liance. The five-year sur-
vival rate for the cancer isless than 16 percent. Incompassion, the five-yearsurvival rate for breastcancer is 89 percent.
But lung cancer war-riors, as they call them-selves, have hope.
“We do have a tendencyto think people deservelung cancer, never mind
the fact that 80 percent ofthose being diagnosed areformer smokers,” saidKathy Sinclair, of Union,who has lung cancer.
This will be Sinclair’sthird Shine a Light on LungCancer vigil.
Sinclair has lived withlung cancer for 13 years.She decided to do some-thing to honor other war-riors in 2010 when she re-ceived a newsletter fromLung Cancer Alliance.
“I think lung cancer, it’sfunny, we tend not to go outand celebrate ourselves,”Sinclair said, adding thatbecause she’s alive sheknew she needed to get in-volved.
ForBarbGriffin, ofMil-ford, Ohio, who sports awhite bracelet in honor oflung cancer fighters thatreads “Hope Warriors Sis-ters,” the event is aboutraising awareness.
Griffin’s mother passedaway in 2002, eight monthsafter she was diagnosed.Her sister was diagnosed
with lungcanceralmostex-actly eight years later.
“Whenmy sister was di-agnosed, she’s neversmoked, a healthy 57-year-old, we were blown away,”Griffin said. “In her diag-nosis, she lived for 20months. She passed awayin March.”
Griffin has banded to-getherwith family and oth-er people touched by lungcancer in support. She hasgone to Washington D.C., a
trip her sister was sup-posed to join, to talk to thegovernment about fundingfor lung cancer research.
“WemetKathy (inD.C.),we went to Capitol Hill andwe talked to our repre-sentatives,” Griffin said.“Told them they need towake up and really seewhat’s going on with thisdisease.”

ALEXANDRIA — Reiley Ele-mentary School second-gradersredefined how Halloween wascelebrated at school Oct. 31 bydressing in costume as words.
The second annual school vo-cabulary parade featured sec-ond-grade students and teachersmarching around the gym andexplaining the meaning of theirwords to an audience of parents.
Teacher Lori Groeschen saidthird grade teachers sent heremails this year to report thather students from last year areable to use aword andknowwhatit means because of the vocabu-lary parade lessons.
“I think the costume ideamakes it last,” Groeschen said.“The visual makes it stick.”
Some students learn betterwhen given a visual aid, she said.
Students were assigned thevocabulary parade project abouta month ago, and many got intothe spirit and started early ontheir costumes, Groeschen said.
“It’s a way to be able to dressup on Halloween that meanssomething,” she said.
Second-grader Preston Kin-ney said his grandmother helpedhim with his costume for theword “alliteration.”
Kinney said he stuck noteswith words beginning with theletterPonaplasticbinbecause itrepresented alliteration’s mean-ing and his name starts with P. Aderby hat with a band containingtheword alliteration finished offKinney’s costume.
Krista and John Groomswatched their son, Connor,march around the gym in ahomemade Lego block costumethey helped build to representthe word “row.” The back of thecostume’s headpiece included
the statement “I put my Legos ina ROW.”
“It was a fun family project,”Krista said. “It makes you slowdown and do things with yourchild.”
Krista said their son came upwith the idea of using red plasticcups to represent the rows ofround connectors a Lego blockhas. He also helped with thespray-painting.
Krista said they were tryingto get Connor to go out in the Le-go costume for Halloween nightbecause he made it, instead ofwearing his preferred ninja cos-tume.
“He’s all about Legos,” shesaid.
Second-grade teachers LoriGroeschen, Megan Norman andDarrin Bachman dressed up asthe words to, two and too. Bach-
ber from the activity as part of areview of all the words, he said.
“They pick out one or twowords that they remember,” hesaid. “Sometimes it’s because ofthe costume.”

GRANTS LICK — StudentssprintedacrosscampusatGrantsLick Elementary Friday, Oct. 26,in a move to set a world recordand burn a few calories.
Volunteers from the commu-nity, including Alexandria’s may-or, watched 259 Grants Lick stu-dents race 100 meters in smallgroups outside the school at 1p.m. The students were partici-pating in the National Geograph-ic Kids Run for the Planet at thesametimeasotherschoolsacrossthe world. The record attemptwas to have the most childrenrunning 100 meters within 24hours.
As part of the race, studentsarealsocollectinggymshoes thatwill be sent to Washington, D.C.,to try for another world recordthat would create the longestshoe chain, said Sandy Bunting,school nurse. The shoes will berecycled and the rubber used to
create playground surfaces,Bunting said.
Bunting said she decided toparticipate in the attempt to set aworld record because it was away to get students thinkingaboutstayingactive. “WeCan!,”agroup that established a curricu-lum for families to eat healthyandbemoreactive,wasapartnerin the Oct. 26 run.
“It’s teaching kids that, youknow versus a video game youcan go out and participate insomething like this andmaybe bein the Guinness Book of WorldRecords or set a record for beingactive,” she said.
Child obesity is a serious issueandsomechildren justdon’twantto be active, Bunting said.
“They don’t want to really runaround, they don’t even just wantto play,” she said.
Bunting said she tries to en-courageeachchild tobephysical-ly active for at least 60 minutes aday. The activities can be brokenup, 10 minutes at recess, 20 min-utesriding theirbicycle, shesaid.Bunting said when she talks tokids she sees two distinct reac-tions.
“You see some kids that arevery exited about that, but yousee some kids that are just like‘Yeah no, that’s not what I want todo. I’mgoing toplayavideogameor watch TV or whatever,’” shesaid. “So, I think that’s a big con-
cern that we’re seeing more kidswho have no desire to be physi-cally active.”
Bunting said she also tries todo nutrition education for fam-ilies and students. Last year, dur-ing a health fair she sat out how
much sugar is in different typesofsodasandsweet teadrinks, andit even surprised some adults.
The school has anobligation toat least show how many calories,grams of fat and sugar are in dif-ferent types of food for familiesand children to understand thenutrition choices they are mak-ing, she said.
Bunting said some restaurantchains are starting to list caloriecounts, and in another lesson sheasked students to go online andvisit restaurant websites andcheck out some of their favoritefoods.
“Lookat that favorite fast foodmeal, seehowmanycalories, howmany grams of fat it has in it andsee what you think,” she said.
Buntingsaidat aminimumtheOct. 26 run got the students out tosee how an activity as simple asrunning a race with classmatescan be a physical activity that isfun.
“Obviously, the kids enjoyedit, they liked getting out there,”she said. “As a whole I think themajority of them enjoyed it, andit will be fun to see what comesout of the record.”

Bluebirds bring brooms to regionalHaving a freshman come up
with a clutch performance in thepostseason is nothing new incross country.
The Highlands High Schoolteams had ninth-graders indroves as both teams won theClass 2A, Region 4 championshipNov. 3 at Ryle. TheBluebirdswillgun for the state championshipsSaturday, Nov. 10, at KentuckyHorse Park in Lexington.
Freshman newcomers led theway for both Bluebird teams.MollyMearns won the individualchampionship in 18 minutes, 36seconds, edging teammate Lau-renOssege, also a freshman. Syd-neyOssegewas third, and all sev-en starters finished in the top 10as Highlands scored 20 points,five off a perfect 15. Mearns andthe Ossege sisters had fastertimes than any girl in the local 1Aand 3A regional races also run atRyle that day.
“The girls really ran fast to-
day,” said head coach Brian Ales-sandro. “I knewwewere going towin but the times were more im-portantbecause theyransomuchfaster than theyhavebeen.Head-ing into state, that helps us a lot.”
Mearns came to Fort Thomasthis summer after her fatherGeoffrey Mearns became thenew president of Northern Ken-tucky University. The replace-ment for longtime leader Dr.James Votruba was at Rylewatching his daughter, who is inher first season running 3.1-mileraces. As a middle-schooler inCleveland, Ohio, she was only al-lowed to run two-mile races.
“The whole team got all ourseven in the top10,whichwas ourgoal,” she said. “Everyone’s beennice, so it’s been easy (moving toHighlands).”
Ninth-grader Ethan Shuleyfinished second in the boys racefor the Bluebirds, leading High-lands to a 12-point win John Mi-chael Griffith. Senior John Mi-chael Griffith was seventh andanother freshman, Matt Gray,
finished eighth.Shuley balanced soccer and
cross country this fall andsneaked up on many cross coun-try fans in the regional, as hebested his personal record by 40seconds. He is one of five High-
lands runners who started in theregional who also played soccer.
“He’s just super talented,”Alessandro said. “Once soccerfinished, he started to train moreand he has just improved everyweek. He’s relatively unknown
because he didn’t race for a fullmonth during the season. Weknew he was good.”
Alessandro said the girls teamhas a strong chance to win thestate title this weekend and theboys team will have a tough timeunseating North Oldham to winthe boys title. Highlands has sixstate championships in girlscross country, including threestraight from 2002-04. The Blue-birds have three boys titles, nonesince 1985.
Newport Central Catholic fin-ished fifth in the boys 1A race toqualify for state. Patrick Allenled the way in seventh place toearn an individual medal.
In girls 1A, Caitlyn Drohan ofNewCath finished 18th to qualifyfor state.

PRESS PREPS HIGHLIGHTS

Highlands High School’sstreakofconsecutivepostseasonvictories has now reached 26.Four more victories in 2012 willbring Highlands its sixthstraight state football champion-ship.
By this point in the season,head coach Dale Mueller has allofhisplayers,eventhosewhoen-tered the year with no startingexperience, playing like veter-ans.
“All of our players have got-ten better over the course of theseason, but especially the first-year guys,” said Mueller. “Play-ing Boyle County, Scott County,Cov Cath and Elder has reallyprepared them for the playoffs.”
Cincinnati Elder was theBluebirds’ only setback this sea-son. The Panthers defeatedHighlands 38-24 on Oct. 19. Theloss snapped Highlands’ 43-game home winning streak,which dated back to 2006.
“As a team, theElder loss just
brought us back down to earth,”said quarterback Donovan Mc-Coy. “We were feeling prettyconfident and now, we haven’tlost any confidence, but we defi-nitely have a stronger desire andmore motivation to prepare forevery game because we knowthat we could lose any Friday.We’re going to do everything wecan to make sure that doesn’thappen, though.”
McCoy is in his first season asthe starting quarterback and hasthe Bluebirds on pace to breakthe single-season scoring recordset by last year’s Highlandsteam. Including the opening-round playoff victory over BoydCounty, the Bluebirds are aver-aging a staggering 54 points pergame.McCoyhasadifferentper-spective during this playoff run,but it is not because of his role inthe offense.
“I wouldn’t say this year’splayoff run is different becauseof playing quarterback,” saidMcCoy. “It’s different becauseit’s the last chance us seniorshave to play Highlands footballand it just means a whole lot tous. There’s definitely some pres-surewhen playoffs come aroundbecause one loss and you’re out,but this timeof year iswhyweasa team love to play the sport.”
Overshadowed by the offen-sive output has been the play ofthe defense. The defense allowsjust under 20 points per game.Other than the 38 allowed to El-der, most of those points scoredby opponents have come afterthe game is out of reach.
“Thedefensedoesn’tgetnear-ly enough credit,” said Mueller.“We often score in one, two orthree plays and the defense runsright back out and stops themagain. We are very athletic anddisciplined on defense and theyare a big strength of the team.”
McCoy and other Bluebirdsstarters were able to rest duringthe second half of the openinground win over Boyd County.McCoy completed eight of ninepasses and threw two touch-downswhile rushing for another.His backup, Drew Houliston,completed eight of 13 passes andalso threw for two scores. JaylenHayes rushed three times for110yards and scored on each carry.The Bluebirds are healthy andfocused heading into the second-round contest against AshlandBlazer (9-2) Nov. 9.
“It’s the playoffs and it’s oneanddone sowe are preparing forevery game we play as best wecan from here on out,” said Mc-Coy.

The Presidents’ Athlet-ic Conference may soonneed to be renamed as theSaints’ Athletic Confer-ence.
Thomas More Collegehas dominated the fallsports season. The Saintsrecently won the PACchampionships in men’ssoccer, women’s soccer,and volleyball. Each teamnow advances to theNCAAtournament to representThomas More and the PACon a national stage.
The women’s soccerteam is the most ac-claimed, finishing the reg-ular season and PAC tour-nament with a 19-1-1 rec-ord. The Saints are rankedNo.16 in the nation headinginto NCAA tournamentplay. Chrissy Sonderman(Holy Cross), CourtneyClark (Notre Dame) andAbby Gindling (Seton)found the back of the net tolead Thomas More to a 3-2shootout win following ascoreless tie in regulationof the PAC championshipmatch against Grove CityCollege.
“The first goal is to winconference then the goalschange tomake a run in theNCAA tournaments,” saidSaints athletic directorTerry Connor. “There’s an
excitement that you areone of the best 64 teams inthe country and let’s seehow far we can go.”
The men’s team fol-lowed suit, winning itsfourth straight PAC cham-pionship. Kyle Troutman(Fairfield) scored bothgoals in the Saints’ 2-0 vic-tory over Geneva Collegein the title match. Goal-keeper Matt Kees (Scott)posted the shutout. TheSaints enter the postseasonwith a 13-3-4 record. Themen’s and women’s teamshave a good-natured rival-ry, pushing one another towin its respective confer-ence championship.
“With all of our sportswinning, no onewants to bethe team that does not winthe conference,” said Con-nor. “There is competition.They push each other andalso cheer for each other. Itis a good relationship andthey all celebrate togeth-er.”
The women’s volleyballteam joined in on the PACchampionship action, de-feating Thiel College in thechampionship match. TheSaints swept the Tomcats3-0, led by Felicity Britt(Bishop Brossart) and ToriVerville (Holy Cross). TheSaints enter the tourna-ment with 26-5 mark.
Now, the Saints teamsenter the postseason hop-
ing to make a bigger namefor their teamandtheircol-lege. The volleyball teamopens the tournament onNov. 9 in Elmhurst, Ill.,against University of Wis-consin-Whitewater. Satur-day, Nov. 10, will be one ofthe busiest days in ThomasMore athletics history. Themen’s and women’s crosscountry teams will com-pete at the NCAAMid-EastRegional in Newville,Penn.

In betweenthe soccer matches, thefootball team will host theannual Bridge Bowlagainst local rival MountSt. Joseph.
“I think our success inthe athletic departmenthas been a big positive forthe college. When you areknown as a winner it at-tracts people to theschool,” said Connor. “Re-gionally,wearewellknownfor our academics but win-ning in athletics puts ourname out there every dayin front of people. When allteams win, more and morestudent athletes want to beassociated with that. Ev-erybody loves a winner.”

A10 • FORT THOMAS RECORDER • NOVEMBER 8, 2012
The question above is onethat is often heard – not only inNorthern Kentucky – but acrossthe nation. For Northern Ken-tucky and our surrounding re-
gion, we cananswer half ofthis questiondue in part torecent work ofeconomistsforecasting aJobs Outlookfor 2020 com-missioned byVision 2015 andAgenda 360.
The difficul-ty in answeringthis question
fully however, is that state andnational policymakers will im-pact when and how quickly jobsreturn.
If for amoment we set asidepolitics and policy, the jobs fore-cast for the Cincinnati/NKY re-gion by 2020 is bright. Usingindustry trends and occupationaldata, total employment is project-ed to be larger here than seven
out of the 11 regions we considerour biggest competitors.
For the 15-county MSA, pro-jections for 800 occupationsshow the region will need toreplace 232,000 employees.When combined with industrygrowth projections, the regionwill achieve a net new jobgrowth of 106,000. Occupationsrelated to healthcare, education,business, finance and technol-ogy are considered “highestgrowth” and the highest paying.To attain these jobs projectionswill require a higher-level post-secondary education and train-ing. For a detailed version of theJobs Outlook 2020, go towww.regional-indica tors.org.
Despite the gloomy news thatoften comes from nationalmedia outlets, our recent localgrowth trend has been encour-aging. Recent reports from theTri-County Economic Devel-opment Corp. (Tri-ED) state thatsince the start of the year, ap-proximately 2,000 new jobs havebeen created in primary indus-tries in Northern Kentucky. This
is significantly better than 2011for the same period in 2012.
New company announce-ments and expansions fromcompanies such as iHerb, No-rAM International, Loreal andDHL are encouraging for thelong-term, while Amazon, GSICommerce, Innotrac and Elova-tions have a strong demand forseasonal workers.
So what can hold us back oreven put us in reverse? The“Fiscal Cliff” is a term thatsome may have heard, but areunsure about its meaning. Forothers, they may believe it to bea looming problem “that doesn’taffect me, but someone else” –perhaps with high net worth.The fact is, the Fiscal Cliffshould be tremendously fright-ening for all because it has thepotential to affect everyone.
What is the Fiscal Cliff? OnDec. 31, 2012, the 2001 and 2003tax rates (“Bush tax cuts”) willexpire, setting in motion $400billion in new taxes during thefirst year and a total of $4.5trillion in taxes over 10 years, all
on the backs of our businesses,employees and citizens. The“Taxmageddon” as it is termed,will manifest itself in theseways:
»Marginal tax rates will rise»Dividends will be taxed as
ordinary income» Capital gains will be taxed
at a top rate of 20 percent» The Child Credit will be cut
in half» Estate Tax will go back to
55 percent and the threshold forestates affected will drop from$5 million to $1million creatinggreater burdens for small busi-nesses and family farms.
In addition to tax increases,across-the-board spending cutsby the federal government willbe made that will ultimatelyreduce opportunities for busi-nesses that are reliant on gov-ernmental contracts. We allagree that the federal govern-ment must reduce spending, butallowing the cuts that wouldoccur because of the Fiscal Cliffwould be reckless and detri-mental to our national and local
economy. Economists warn thatthis could drag us back into arecession that would dwarf theone we’re coming out of.
The Congressional BudgetOffice assessed that withoutaction by Congress, projectedeconomic growth will slow from2.2 percent in 2012 to 1 percentin 2013 and unemployment willrise again, moving from 8.8percent nationwide in 2012 to 9.1percent in 2013.
There is hope however andthat hope lies at the hands of theU.S. Congress who can restorethe current tax policies andavoid “The Cliff.” We must allencourage Congress to developa plan of action that ensurestomorrow is better than today.Join me in letting our electedofficials know that if they willgive us predictability and eco-nomic freedom, we will exceedexpectations and create morejobs than ever imagined.

Violent crime in Kentuckywent from11,656 in 2009 to37,467 in 2011. Juvenile deten-tion in Kentucky went from4,293 in 2009 to 7,981 in 2011.
Serious crimes in general inKentucky have gone up 66 per-cent from 2009 to 2011.
OurWin TheWar AgainstViolence cam-paign is anactive attemptto reversethese and othernegative trendsthat involveviolence inKentucky. Weencourage andchallenge allKentuckians tovoluntarily
reduce violence by 10 percent in2012 within the state. The cam-paign’s special focus is Kentuck-y’s youth.
Those in Kentucky who havealready united behind this cam-paign are the mayors from Co-vington, CrestviewHills, Er-langer and Florence, along with52 other Kentucky cities.
State government bodieshave also shown their support.The Kentucky Department ofEducation has also spread theword about this campaign to thesuperintendents of all 174 Ken-tucky school districts. This Vio-lence Prevention EducationalCampaign is a rare and unprece-dented act of unity in Kentuckyor elsewhere. It is another edu-cational first for Kentucky.
Why are we focused on givingKentucky’s youth this message?
In just a short span of 10years, 50 percent of violence iscommitted by those ages 14 to 24nationwide. The highest violentoffenders of any age are ages 18to 24.
Homicide is the No. 2 causeof death of all youth and the No.1 cause of death among African-Americans. If we want to signifi-
cantly move the dial back onviolence wemust concentrate onyouth, especially youths ages12-17 before they reach the mostdangerous age among offenders.
However it is up to eachyouth to voluntarily not do vio-lence. We adults are here to help.Mayors from over 50 cities inKentucky are telling youth thatunjustified violence against oneanother is wrong.
Do we adults makemistakes?Of course, but not this time andnot on this united message to ourstate’s most vital resource, ouryouth. We strongly encourage allof Kentucky youths, as well asall other citizens of Kentucky,not to do unjustified violence toother people in our great state.
Although Kentucky is only 1.4percent of the U.S. population,let us lead the entire nation isthis crucial area of peace withthe necessity of legislation,money, enforcement or incarcer-ation. We can do it because all4.3 million people are equal inthis campaign and all will equal-ly benefit from amore peacefulcommonwealth.
Why should youth not doviolence? Because it is in everyyouth’s self interest withoutbeing selfish and that is a rareand very good thing. But it is upto every youth alone to volun-tarily not do violence.
So let there be nomoreclaims of mixedmessages re-garding violence or anymoreconfusion. Our united Kentuckymessage is crystal clear. Wewant every person and everyyouth to do no violence. Bepeaceful.
Our organization believesthat peace is not only the gate-way to our survival and ad-vancement but also to all theother fantastic principles andpleasures of life.

The recent 2020 Jobs OutlookReport jointly produced by Vi-sion 2015 and Agenda 360 provid-ed trend data that are extremelyuseful to people who are plan-ning to enter the jobmarket in
the next fewyears – and forthe parents,educators andothers whomaybe advisingthem.
Fact No. 1:The reportfound thatoccupationsrelated tohealth care,education,business, fi-
nance, technology and produc-tion rank in that order as thefastest-growing and best-pay-ing careers.
Fact No. 2: Postsecondaryeducation is required to land awell-paying job. According tothe report, nine out of 10 jobspaying $33,130 a year or morewill require some combinationof postsecondary education,on-the-job training and/or workexperience beyond one year.
Themessage is clear: If youwant a good job, you have todevelop the skills employerswant. Beyond technical skillsand computer proficiency, em-ployers want people who cangather, process and communi-cate information; make decisionsand solve problems; plan andorganize their work; influenceothers; and work together inteams. This combination oftechnical and what used to becalled “soft” skills is the focus ofa community and technical col-lege education.
It is never too soon to startbuilding these skills. That iswhy Gateway has introducedthe Gateway Regional Acad-emy (GRA), an early collegeprogram that enables students
to begin earning college creditswhile they are still in highschool.
The advantages are many.A recent three-year study by
the Community College Re-search Center at ColumbiaUniversity revealed that stu-dents who enroll in early col-lege programs in high schoolare more likely to go to collegethan their peers. They are alsomore likely to stay in college.
The study found that earlycollege gives high school stu-dents a chance to see whatcollege classes are like andboosts their confidence, whichmakes the transition from highschool to college easier.
Currently, the GatewayRegional Academy is offeringcollege classes to nearly 150students from17 NorthernKentucky public and parochialhigh schools, as well as stu-dents in home schools.
GRA students can earn up to
24 college credit hours at halfGateway tuition or less. De-pending on the college classesthey take, GRA students maycomplete nearly all of theirfirst year of college while stillin high school, saving the stu-dents time and money towarda two-year or four-year de-gree. Gateway’s credits trans-fer by law to any public uni-versity in Kentucky, and, be-cause Gateway is regionallyaccredited, to virtually anyother college or university .
Any high school student,age 16 or older, who has theminimum required SAT, ACT,or COMPASS test scores maybe admitted to the GRA. Gate-way reserves specific classesfor GRA students at its Booneand Edgewood Campuses andat the Urban Center in Coving-ton. However, any Gatewayclass, including those online, isavailable to GRA students aslong as they meet class re-quirements and space is avail-able. All services, such as freetutoring, career and transfercounseling, financial aid work-shops for graduating seniors,and advising are offered toGRA students. Students mustmaintain a cumulative 2.0grade point average to remainin the GRA.
GRA classes observe thesame schedule as Gateway’sregular classes. A new termbegins Oct. 10. To get involvedwith the Gateway RegionalAcademy call Shelby Krentz,director of Early College Initia-tives, 859-815-7648,[email protected].
And one more fact: those sixfastest-growing careers in ourregion? Gateway offers post-secondary programs in all ofthem.

NOVEMBER 8, 2012 • CCF RECORDER • B3LIFE
Thanksgiving count-down begins! The one tipI’ll be sharing over andover is about thawingfrozen turkey.
Think ahead! If youthaw in-correctly,bacteriawill grow.That’sbecausebacteria’sfavoritetemper-ature isaboutroom tem-perature,
60 to 70 degrees. If you’rethawing turkey on thekitchen counter, the out-side will thaw fairly soon,but the inside will still befrozen.
Best temperature forthawing turkey? Around40 degrees, which is thetemperature in your frig.Keep turkey in originalwrapping, put in pan tocatch moisture and allow24 hours thawing time forevery 5 pounds. If youforget, put packagedturkey in cold water andchange water every 30minutes to keep it cold.Count on 30 minutesthawing time per pound.
Before roasting, checkcavities and pull out thepouch of giblets. (The firsttime I roasted a turkey, Ididn’t know to check, andit was not a pretty sightwhen they slipped out,intact in pouch, after roast-ing). If you’re worried youwon’t have enough, roast abreast along with thewhole turkey. That givesyoumore white meat plusextras.
Remember to focus onblessings, and put bur-dens in God’s hands.That’s where they belong,anyway. Whether yourtable is laden with gour-met food or a simplebuffet, know that content-ment is not the fulfillmentof what you desire, butthe realization of howmuch you already have.My childhood friend AnnRudloff, a Northern Ken-tucky reader, told me
years ago: “The mostimportant things in lifeare not ‘things.’”
Braised rootvegetables
This is one of my fa-vorite sides to serve dur-ing the fall, since wintersquash and root veggiesare in season.
1 large sweet potato2 regular potatoes1winter squash (I likebutternut)
1 large carrot2 turnips or parsnips4 nice big leeks, white partonly
2 beets1 head garlic, separatedinto cloves and peeled
1⁄2 to 1 stick butter1⁄2 to 3⁄4 cup dark brownsugar or to taste
1⁄2 teaspoon ea: dried sage,oregano, thyme,rosemary, basil
Preheat oven to 350.Peel and cut vegetablesinto 2-inch pieces. Heatbutter in large ovenproofpan with lid. Add sugarand herbs and stir untilsugar is dissolved. Addvegetables and garlic.Place in oven for 40-60
minutes until tender.Adjust seasonings.
Tip: Peeling squash:Poke holes with fork allover. Microwave on higha couple of minutes. Usemitts to remove. Cool andpeel.
Cranberrycelebration saladlike Kroger
This is in my “recipehall of fame.” I can’t tellyou howmany requests Iget for this each year.Kroger’s salad has a loosetexture, and the followingrecipes replicated this.
Marilyn Hoskin’scranberrycelebration salad
Try substituting cher-ry gelatin if you like.
15 oz crushed pineapple,drained – save juice
1⁄2 cup cranberry juice2 tablespoons lemon juice1 pkg, 3 oz, raspberrygelatin
15 oz can whole cranberrysauce
1⁄2 cup chopped walnuts1⁄2 cup celery, chopped (opt
but good)
Boil pineapple, cranber-ry and lemon juice togeth-er. Add gelatin. Removefrom heat and stir in cran-berries. Put in fridge tillalmost set. Add pineapple,nuts and celery.
GinnyMoorehouse’scranberrycelebration salad.
“I’ve been making thisfor years for my family”,Ginny said.
1pkg cherry or strawberrygelatin
1 cup boiling liquid: 1/2 cupea orange juice and water
1-3⁄4 cups cranberry sauce,jelled type
1 cup diced celery (opt butgood)
1⁄2 cup chopped walnuts3⁄4 cup crushed drainedpineapple
Dissolve gelatin inboiling liquid. Add cran-berry sauce and blend.When it starts to congeal,add other ingredients.
Tip from Rita’skitchen
“Gray/blooming” choc-olate. Temperaturechanges can sometimesmake the surface look abit gray. That’s called“blooming” and meansthe cocoa butter or fat inthe chocolate has workedits way to the surface. It’sstill perfectly safe to eat,and when melted, willregain sheen.

Lippelman said. Thatwent on for threemonths, during whichLippelman had to use theback door of her housebecause the front doorporch was full of debris.
Finally, Lippelmanhired an attorney whogave the contractor adeadline to complete thework and, when it wasn’tdone, fired him. She’snow hired another com-pany to complete the job– but still hasn’t beenable to get her moneyback from the first man.
Under the city ofCincinnati home remod-eling ordinance, a con-tractor is not allowed tocollect more than 10percent of the moneyupfront. In addition, thecompanymust give awritten contract contain-ing the start and comple-tion dates. Having thecompletion date in writ-ing makes it a lot easierto determine when acompany has walked offthe job.
Lippelman says, “This
the samecontractorto do morework. “Icontract-ed withhim to dothe mainporch andhe askedfor moneyahead –
which, unfortunately, Idid give him. He cameand demolished theporch and then I didn’tsee him again, except offand on for an hour at atime,” she said.
According to the con-tract, Lippelman paid thecontractor more than$6,700 upfront. There’sjust $1,750 due at thecompletion of the porch –so the contractor re-ceived most of his moneybefore he ever startedwork.
“I continually stayedin touch with him, calledhim, asked him when hewas going to finish theproject and received amyriad of excuses,”
When you hire a con-tractor to do workaround your house, howmuchmoney should youpay that person upfront?
Often, contractors askfor 50 percent or morebefore they’ll do any-thing. But, that’s not onlya bad idea for the home-owner, it may even beillegal.
Robin Lippelmanwanted to fix up herClifton home earlier thisyear. In March, she hireda contractor to remove aporch from the left frontof her home. She saysthat went well.
“When he demolishedthe porch, it was discov-ered mymain porch hadliterally just an inch ofconcrete in some places.It was going to collapse,”Lippelman said.
So, Lippelman hired
has been following mefor so manymonths Iwould like to see someform of justice done.” So,I had her contact Cincin-nati Police because of thealleged violations ofCincinnati’s home re-modeling ordinance.
In the meantime, Icalled the contractorwho claimed he neverwalked off the job – butadmitted having prob-lems getting the workfinished. He says he’swilling to repay the mon-ey and has now set up apayment schedule withLippelman to avoid pos-sible criminal prose-cution.
Bottom line, even ifyou don’t live in the cityof Cincinnati, I suggestyou follow these sameguidelines in order toprotect yourself.

Question:How do Istart a compost pile for allthe fallen leaves in myyard?
Answer: Fallen leavesare a goodmain ingre-dient for acompostpile. Ma-terials likedriedleaves,sawdust,paper andstraw arehigh incarbon anddecompose
very slowly on their own.However, materials likemanure, blood meal, grassclippings, and fertilizerare very high in nitrogen.These will speed up thecomposting process.
Kitchen wastes such ascoffee grounds, tea bags,egg shells and fruit andvegetable scraps are alsogood nitrogen sources.
Materials that shouldnot be added to compostpiles include human andpet feces, which can trans-mit diseases. Meat, bones,whole eggs, and dairyproducts should not beadded, since they mayattract rodents.
Commercial microbialpreparations (compoststarters) that claim to en-hance composting are notnecessary. Microbes neces-sary for the decompositionof organic matter are ev-erywhere. You can get afaster start up of microbesbymixing a small amountof soil or finished compostin with thematerial to becomposted.
The addition of lime tothe compost pile is notrecommended, since itwill convert ammoniumnitrogen to ammonia gas,which leads to the loss ofnitrogen. Finished com-post is usually slightlyalkaline even without the
addition of lime. Woodashes can cause the sameproblems as lime, sincemost horticultural plantsprefer slightly acid soil.
If any of the followingfour factors are limiting,the process of decomposi-tion will slow or stop.
Under ideal conditions,the compost pile shouldhave these traits: a.) atleast 5 percent oxygencontent; b.) 50 percentmoisture; c.) a temper-ature of 90-140 degrees F;and d) a 30:1 carbon tonitrogen ratio.
Oxygen is essential formicrobes to efficientlybreak down organicwastes. If the compost pileis too large or is turnedinfrequently the interiorof the compost pile canbecome anaerobic (lack-ing in oxygen). Oxygen isadded to a compost pile byturning the pile with agarden fork. Turning acompost pile at fairlyfrequent intervals during
the first 10 to 15 days willachieve approximately thesame degree of biodegra-dation as making the samenumber of turns over alonger period.
Keep the compost pilelightly watered during adrought. Water the layersas you add them and coverthe pile with plastic dur-ing very wet or dry peri-ods. Keep the pile moist,but not wet.
Composting can bedone in a pile, a bin or a pitdepending on what isconvenient. Finished com-post can be used as a soilamendment to improveaeration, root penetration,nutrient holding capacity,and water infiltration in a
clay soil. Addition of com-post to sandy soils helps inwater and nutrient reten-tion. Compost also makesgood mulch, but it shouldnot be thought of as afertilizer.

It is the time of year whenAmericans generously donate
holiday sup-plies for thosein need.Manychoose toshare fooditems. Consid-er the follow-ing as youshare yourfood bounty.
Talk to thefood pantrycoordinatorbefore you
make your donation to find outwhat is neededmost.
Give items you think othersmight enjoy and know how touse.While canned guavamaybe a favorite on your familytable, many othersmay notknowwhat it is or what to dowith it if they receive it.
Ensure foods are well with-in their use-by dates. If some-thing has been on your shelffor two years, donating it to afood pantry is not the best idea.
In reality, many food pan-tries would benefit more froma cash donation than one offood.With cash, pantries areable to purchase foods neededby the clients they serve. Addi-tionally, they can usually pur-chase foods for less cost thanyou because of their network.
Try to keep health inmind.A simple box or bag of brownricemight be a healthier andmore versatile donation than abox of seasoned ricemix thatis high in sodium.
Please, no dented, rusty, orunlabeled cans. You don’t wantthem on your shelf; neither
does anyone else.Donations of home-canned
goods, alcohol, and soda are notwelcomed. Ensure your dona-tions are commercially cannedand packaged foods.
Protein foods are typicallywelcomed and needed. Consid-er giving canned chicken, tuna,peanut butter, beef stew,canned chili, and canned or drybeans.
Cereal is another oftenoverlooked donation. Considergiving small individual servingboxes as well as larger familysizes.
Remember that singles aswell as families, elderly andyoungmay visit the food pan-try. Smaller containers andbaby foodsmay be awelcomeaddition to the pantry shelves.
Consider printing copies ofyour favorite simple, easy, andquick-to-fix recipe featuring afood you are donating to sharewith those who take that fooditem. Talk to the pantry coor-dinator to see if this would bewelcomed in their facility.
If youwant to share freshfood from your garden, talkwith the pantry coordinator toensure the products are wel-comed andwill be used.
Finally, food pantries needsupplies all year long.We oftenconsider our contributionsduring the holidays to beenough, but hunger and needdoes not just happen in Novem-ber andDecember.

The other day I waschatting with a friendabout her “life group.” Ifyou are unfamiliar withthe term, life groups aregroups of families formedthrough similar seasons inlife (i.e. children withsimilar ages etc.) thatgather weekly for fellow-ship, worship and con-versation. Many areformed out of growingchurches, which is whyher next statementalarmed me. Casually, shesaid “One of the seniorministers emailed all thelife groups this week,reminding us not to talkpolitics.”
Realiz-ing howcrucialthis elec-tion is,isn’t thisthe timewe shouldbe talkingpolitics inchurch?”
In arecent
article, Billy Grahamsimplifies the voting proc-ess for all of us. “Castyour ballots for candidateswho base their decisionson biblical principles andsupport the nation of Isra-el. Vote for those who
protect the sanctity of lifeand support the biblicaldefinition of marriagebetween a man and a wom-an.”
It’s that simple. We, asChristians continue to talkabout our need to be morebold in our faith. Therehas never been a morecrucial time to get bold.The truth hurts, yes, but itwill also set you free.
The Bible does notmince words, “Be carefulto obey all these com-mands I am giving you.Show love to the Lord yourGod by walking in Hisways and holding tightlyto Him. Then the Lord will
drive out all the nationsahead of you.” Deuterono-my 11:22-23
Pay close attention tothat statement.
We must rememberthat if we want to seeGod’s hand at work inthese very areas, we mustvote according to Hisword.
In an article titled,“Will God Still BlessAmerica?” Franklin Gra-ham encourages Chris-tians to “Elect officialswho will stand firmly forgodly values and princi-ples. That doesn’t alwaysmean that we will agreetheologically on every
topic, but we can findshared values that havetheir bedrock in the Ju-deo-Christian ethic.” Hegoes on to say that if acandidate’s stance doesn’talign with Christian val-ues, “don’t vote for them,regardless of their partyaffiliation.”
We were blessed byGod because we werefounded as a “nation underGod.” If we want to con-tinue to receive thoseblessings, we must heedHis word.
“Then if my people whoare called by my namewill humble themselvesand pray and seek my face
and turn from their wick-ed ways, I will hear fromheaven and will forgivetheir sins and restore theirland.” 2Chronicles 7:14
In simpler terms, fol-low my parent’s bumperstickers, “Pray, Vote,Pray!”
