Despite the superin-tendent’s recommenda-tion to raise revenue,Boone County Schoolswill take the compensat-ing property tax rate thisyear.

The compensating rateallows them to receive thesame revenue as they didin 2011.

Due to adrop inproper-ty value assessments, theratewill go from$5.79 perevery $1,000 of assessedvalue to $5.95 per every$1,000 of assessed valuefor both real estate andtangible property.

The district’s motorvehicle tax rate will re-main the sameat $4.97 perevery $1,000 of assessedvalue.

Holding local revenuesat the same level willmake operating difficult

this year asthe districtmust nowstaff thenew Thorn-wilde Ele-mentary,said Super-intendentRandy Poe.

“We really needed totake the 4 percent in-crease,” Poe said.

The board of educationadvised Poe to ask for thecompensating rate be-cause raising revenueswould be a burden on resi-dents who are alreadystruggling financially.

“To be honest, I don’tknow how we’ll getthrough this year, butwe’ll figure it out,” Poesaid.

The district’s financialstruggles stem from rev-enue cuts from nearly ev-ery source but its localfunding. In the comingyear, the district is ex-pected to get a $2.7 mil-lion cut in federal fundingand a $1.3 million cut in

SEEK funding.SEEK (Support Educa-

tion Excellence in Ken-tucky), a formula-driven,state-funded money allo-cation program, doles outmoney to schools based ona county’s wealth.

The new cuts arestacked on top of the $3.3million in funding cutsthat have come in since2008.

To make up for thecuts, the district hasdipped into its fund bal-ance, which has droppedto $17 million, despite thestate’s recommendationthat a district the size ofBoone County to have atleast $25 million in re-serves.

“We’re at a critical lev-el,” Poe said.

If the fund balancedips much lower, the dis-

trict will have a difficulttime covering payrollsome months, he said.

All of these financialwoes are matched with anexpected enrollment in-crease of 200-300 stu-dents this year over lastyear. This means they’llhave to stretch the moneythey have even farther.

This will be a difficultfor a district that is al-ready well below state av-erage of revenue per stu-dent. If Boone County’sfunding matched thestate average, it’d have anadditional $20 million ofrevenue a year, Poe said.

The 2012 tax rateswere approved by theboard 5-0, with boardchairman Ken Cook ab-sent from the meeting.

For Sarah McCane ofIndependence, her dogs –she owns three pit bulls –are her best therapy.

McCane, who has cys-tic fibrosis, underwent adouble lung transplantlast year and said herdogs have helped in therecovery process.

“They just keepme go-ing and help me get out ofbed every day. They put asmile on my face everyday.”

She’s also one of the co-founders of Good Deedsfor Bullied Breeds.

A bullied breed is anybreed discriminatedagainst publicly or politi-cally, and includes breedslike pit bull, Doberman,German shepherd andRottweiler, McCane said,adding there are 75 dogbreeds in America thathave been banned or re-stricted in some city.

According to thegroup’s Facebook page,their mission is to “dispelthe negative stereotypesassociated with misun-derstood breeds, in hopesof eliminating breed spe-cific laws.”

Good Deeds is teamingup with Save Our Shelter

Dogs Rescue for the Pit-tie Please, Find a Cureevent from 11 a.m. to 3p.m. Sunday, Aug. 26, atEngland-Idlewild Park inBurlington.

The event is free butthe cost is $10 to partici-pate in the walk.

The walk originallystarted to bring light tobreed specific legislationand to raise money,McCane said.

Proceeds from theevent will be split be-tween Save Our ShelterDogs and the Cystic Fi-brosis Foundation.

According to McCane,the Cystic Fibrosis Foun-dation is dedicated to ex-tending the quality of lifefor cystic fibrosis pa-tients, finding new medi-cines and more.

The organization wasthe “sole reason” she wasable to get her lung trans-plant, McCane said.

Science teachers are about toget some help.

TheDiocese of Covingtonwasawarded a $30,000 grant that willimprovescience instruction in itsBoone County schools.

The University of KentuckyPartnership Institute for Mathe-matics and Science EducationReform is administering thegrant through a grant it receivedfrom the Toyota Foundation and

National Science Foundation thatwas designed to improve profes-sional development for middleand high school STEM (science,technology, engineering andmathematics) teachers.

“You can get creative in howyou use themoney,” saidMichaelFay, science teacher at St. HenryDistrict High School.

The grant will be used to alignthe physical science curriculumin St. Henry District HighSchool’s feeder schools – St. PaulSchool, St. Henry ElementarySchool, Mary, Queen of HeavenSchool, ImmaculateHeart ofMa-ry School and St. Joseph Acad-emy.

Curriculum alignment willtake a broad approach by givingteachers content they shouldteach before the end of the yearinstead of micromanaging teach-ers and telling them what needsto be taught on certain days, Faysaid.

“Each feeder school will be onthe same year-to-year track,” hesaid.

This is helpful because itmeans studentswhomaymove toa different schoolwill still be get-ting the same content and whenthey reach St. Henry DistrictHigh School, all students willhave been taught the same curri-culum.

“We want them all to be on anequivalent playing field,” Faysaid.

This will make teaching sci-enceat thehighschool levelmoreefficient because there will beless time spent trying to under-stand what a student has or hasnot been taught and maybe pro-vide time for even more contentto be taught, he said.

To implement the aligned con-tent, part of the grant money willbe used to help improve commu-nication. In October, any teacherwho teaches physical science inany of the feeder schools will at-tend a science conference daywhere therewill bepresentations

on the new curriculum. Anyteacherwhoseschool is insessionthat day will have a substituteteacher paid for by the grant.

The grant will also allowteachers to begin a professionalrelationship with science teach-ers at the university level so theycan ask questions and get ideason labs and experiments to run inclass.

The grant only lasts for oneyear, but the Diocese of Coving-ton is using it as a trial for poten-tially permanent changes for allSTEM classes across all theschool clusters in the diocese.

Grant boosts science instructionSt. Henry feederschools to get helpBy Justin B. [email protected]

FLORENCE—The day Co-rinne Carducci waited for herentire life has come.

Aug. 15 was Carducci’s firstday as a sixth-grade mathteacher at OckermanMiddleSchool.

For someone who’s dreamedof being a teacher her entirelife and spent four years atNorthern Kentucky Universitypreparing to teach, this marksone of Carducci’s most impor-tant days.

In the early days of theschool year, Carducci has twomajor roles: explaining howher class will work and helpingsixth-graders adjust to middleschool.

“Today is just so much in-formation for the kids and me,”she said.

The sixth-grade transitioncan be a scary time for somestudents, and Carducci workedhard at making that smooth foreveryone so they’ll be focusedon learning when instructionbegins.

“No one cried today, so thatis a success,” Carducci joked.

With sixth-graders, teachershave to prepare for certainissues that will pop up. Thismeans Carducci needs to learnwhere everything in the build-ing is because she’ll be giving alot of directions. She has astack of index cards hidden inher desk that have all of herstudents’ locker combinations.

“They’ll all inevitably for-get,” Carducci said.

Carducci spent her first dayintroducing herself, her assign-ment schedule and plans forher four classes. The first day

also brings things that shenever considered in her yearspreparing to teach like givingdirections for a fire drill.

“It’s good to have all of thatinformation out of the way,”Carducci said.

Rounding out the rest of herfirst week, Carducci plans torun some games where she canget to know her students andgive them a practice test to getan idea of where her students’math skills are coming into thenew year.

So while the first few daysare a bit more laid-back thanthe rest of the year, Carducci isstill keeping busy with tweak-ing lessons and preparing forher first year of content.

“I have to-do list upon to-dolist upon to-do list,” she said.

Now that she’ll be talkingfor several hours a day, theBoone County High Schooljunior varsity girls soccercoach is considering changingher coaching style to protecther voice.

“I need to not yell as muchat soccer game,” Carducci said.“I get so excited.”

Alarmingly,research in-dicates thatmany childrenskip theirbreakfastmeals and thatbreakfast eat-ing dips aschildren grow.Only 77 per-cent of young

children eat breakfast everyday, while the number falls to 50percent in middle school and 36percent among high schoolstudents.

Upon rising from bed, yourchildren likely have gone 10hours or more since their lastmeal. Let’s be sure that we“break the fast” for our childrento ensure a healthy successfulschool year.

Summer is in its finalstretch now. The hot, humiddays of July are behind us andour kids are heading back toschool. There are many thingsI enjoy about summer, and onthe top of that list is our countyfair that was held last week.It’s always an excellent show-case of local culture and talentand this year was no exception.

I enjoyed getting to samplethe great fair food last week,look at the many interestingagricultural exhibits, andwatch some of the horseshows. I even submitted myfamous ‘Schickel dill pickles’in the pickle contest and cameaway proudly with a red rib-bon. I’m already looking for-ward to next year, and possiblyeven tweaking my recipe for ashot at first place.

Rest assured, though, I’vebeen doing more than justpickling. As chair of the Li-

censing andOccupationsCommittee, Iwork hard tostay on top ofthe regula-tions affectingsmall busi-ness. Each ofmy four yearsin the Ken-tucky GeneralAssembly, we

have been successful in re-pealing laws and regulationsthat are found to impede busi-ness.

I was humbled to recentlylearn my efforts are beingrecognized by the Small Busi-ness Caucus. I am the recipientof this year’s Friend of SmallBusiness Award. I was equallyhonored to be acknowledgedby the Kentucky Chamber ofCommerce for ‘taking extraor-dinary steps to improve the

small business climate in thestate.’

I am very passionate aboutmy work for small businessesand will continue pushing forthe changes needed to advanceour business environment. Iplan to pre-file a bill in thecoming weeks that would doaway with the prohibition onElection Day alcohol sales.

Election Day alcohol saleslaws are antiquated, serve nouseful purpose and hurt smallbusiness. This belief was con-firmed when I served as thehead of the U.S. Marshal Ser-vice in the Eastern District ofthe state and handled somecases that involved vote buy-ing and alcohol – always in drycounties.

This is a bigger issue thansome may realize. Restaurantand store owners tell me thelaw is a hindrance on theirbusiness, and I believe them. It

is an unnecessary inconve-nience and has a direct nega-tive effect on sales and profitsat least two days each year.Due to confusion over inter-pretations of how the law isenforced, some businesseshave even incurred additionalcourt costs and legal expenses.

I hope we are able to abolishthis Prohibition era statuteduring the next legislativesession and remove this point-less barrier for local restau-rants and businesses. Hopeful-ly it will be just one of manymeasures approved in 2013that support small business inNorthern Kentucky and thecommonwealth.

LUCKY CATCH

Chase Fisher, 13, of Florence caught a catfish during the BooneCounty 4-H and Utopia Fair Fishing Frenzy held on Aug 4. The faircontinues through Aug. 11. MARTYWHITACRE FOR THE COMMUNITY

RECORDER

In the Instant Racing casenow in the Kentucky courts, theBeshear administration and theHorse Racing Commissionhave argued that videos of oldhorse races shown on machinesare the legal equivalent ofactual horse races. The ma-chines show videos involvingmany horses that have longsince died.

Live racing with dead hors-es. Go figure.

In 2010, lawyers for thehorse racing industry used thisreasoning before a Frankfortjudge whose approval theyneeded to allow Instant Racingslot machines at horse tracks.The high-priced lawyers hiredby the tracks and Beshearadministration attorneys con-vinced the judge that this rea-soning actually made sense.Part of the problem stemmedfrom the judge’s refusal toallow The Family Foundation,which had entered the case tooppose the move, to ask anypre-trial questions, review anydocuments, develop any proof

or inspect themachines inquestion.

After deny-ing The FamilyFoundation alldiscoveryrights, thecase moved tothe Court ofAppeals. Thehorse racingindustry thenmade a motion

to bypass the Appeals Courtaltogether, sending the casedirectly to the Kentucky Su-preme Court. But the highcourt refused the attempt in aunanimous decision.

When the Appeals Courtruled in June of this year, itagreed with The Family Foun-dation that the facts needed tobe heard. It found the trialcourt had “abused its discre-tion,” sending the case back tothe lower court in order toallow for questions to finally beasked. What did horse industrylawyers do? They filed another

motion to move the case to theKentucky Supreme Court.

It seems anything is prefer-able to putting the facts on thetable.

What does it say about thecase for Instant Racing thatadvocates think they have abetter chance if the facts re-main hidden?

So far, no court has looked atan Instant Racing machine. Thehorse racing industry has nev-er answered a question fromInstant Racing opponents. Ithas never been required toproduce a single document.Numerous motions have beenfiled, but the courts have yet toactually hear the facts of thecase.

What is Instant Racing?Where are the horses in thevideos? Are the horses alive ordead? Are patrons betting ondead horses or on electronicreels? How can new odds becalculated on a race that wascompleted years before? Howcan it be pari-mutuel wageringwhen the Instant Racing patent

describes the wagering pool asa unique pool of one?

A court cannot legitimatelydecide this case if these ques-tions and others like it are nev-er answered.

The Supreme Court is un-likely to be convinced that itshould take a case in which noevidence has even been heard.It’s kind of hard to make a deci-sion when the merits of thecase haven’t been presented.

What will lawyers for theadministration and the racingindustry do if the SupremeCourt rules against them again?Will they make their argumentthat a video of a horse race isan actual horse race by sendinga video of their lawyers insteadof actual lawyers to argue theircase in front of the judge?

The Girl Scouts of America was 86 years oldwhenCatieDouchette, 14, of Florencewas born.This year, the organization celebrates 100 yearssince its founding.

ForCatie, the organization ismore like an oldfriendandaplacewhereshecanuseher skills toguide younger girls in Northern Kentucky.

Currently one in every 14 girls in NorthernKentucky is aGirl Scout.AlthoughLyndaBlack-burn Vickers was a Girl Scout more than 50years ago, hermemories of campfires and cook-ie deliveries are as fresh as the mementos shekeeps in plastic boxes in her Florence home.

The Community Recorder asked readers tosend in their greatest memories of Scouting.Here are some excerpts from what was re-ceived.

Traci Vanbenschoten, a member of Troop 18in Cold Spring, writes:

“...Aswewereenteringourhighschoolyearswe would begin our adventures traveling thecountry. Our eighth grade summer, we packedinto twovans and spent threeweeks on theWyo-ming Trek. We stayed in Girl Scout houses andchurches and camped at National Center West.

“We’ve seen Mount Rushmore, Badlands,Petrified Forest, Grand Canyon, whitewaterrafting inMontana andmuchmore. At NationalCenter West we hiked to the top of the Mesawhich overlooked the camp grounds and spentthe night under heaven’s star.We ended our sen-ior year with a trip to Savannah, Ga., to visit thebirthplace of Juliette Gordon Low, the founderof Girl Scouts.”

Girl ScoutTroop196 inFlorencemetbetween1952 and 1958. Vickers, who keeps a box of hermemories in her home today, writes:

“We had to do projects to earn our badgessuch as cooking. We actually camped, gatheredthe wood and started the fire in the fire pit. Weput ground beef, potatoes and carrots, wrappedthem in Reynolds Wrap, and threw them in thefiretocook.Ofcourse,wetoppedoffourmealbymaking s’mores.”

Vickers said her troop also took trips to eti-quette classes in Cincinnati.

“Remember, this was the 1950s,” she said.LeslieBauer, ofFlorence, is aGirl Scout lead-

er at Mary, Queen of Heaven Church in Erlang-er.

Girl Scouting is helping her daughter grow,she writes:

“Beingapart of theGirl Scoutshasbeenreal-ly great for my daughter, the other girls in ourtroop, and myself and the other parents in-volved. We have watched our girls really growby participating in Girl Scouts and we are soproud of them.

“Our troop has participated in many serviceprojects such as collecting personal care itemsfor the needy, making our parish aware of theimportant issue of child abuse.

“Wehavegoneonmanyfield trips like tovisitMayorDianeWhalenofFlorenceandhearabouthow a city is run, how city council works. Wehave also taken field trips to the police stationandfirestation to learnabout ...weatherandfiresafety.”

SistersCarolineandCatieDouchette, ofFlor-ence, are members of Troop 43 and Senior GirlScouts.

Caroline, 13, explains how she and her sistergot involved.

“It started because mymomwas a leader, sowe started as Daisies, we wanted to be in hertroop, so we were Girl Scouts,” Caroline said.“Now I thinkwe are doing it becausewe have somany friends in Girl Scouts and it was fun to dothe activities and earn the badges.”

The younger girls benefit from the help aswell, says 14-year-old Catie.

“Well lots of girls quit Girl Scouts once theygetolderbecause itkindofstopsbeingcool,”Ca-tie said. “But it never stops being fun becauseyou can do tons of different trips, you can gocamping and can do a lot.”

When we were kidsand attending St. Marga-ret of Cortona’s school inMadison Place, one ofmy favorite hot luncheswas the barbecue. You

couldsmell it theminute youstood onthe stepsgoingdown tothe cafete-ria. It wasstringyand coatedwith justenough

sauce to make it a bitdrippy so when you tooka bite, some would fallonto your plate – a bonusto savor with that lastforkful of slaw. Appar-ently school lunchesbring back a flood ofmemories for many ofyou.

Lockland School’sbarbecue from the‘50s

Ann Seebohm, a Mont-gomery reader, sent thisfor Marilyn Morris, whowas looking for St. Ber-nard School’s barbecuefrom the 1950s. Ann said:“The recipe I have is notfrom St. Bernard Schoolbut from LocklandSchool. However it isfrom the 1950s and isalso called barbecue, butis more like sloppy joe.Hope this is what Mari-lyn Morris is looking

for.”

Brown 2 pounds groundbeef with 4 mediumonions and 2 bell peppers,chopped

Add the following andsimmer:

2 tablespoons each:Worcestershire, barbecuesauce, vinegar and sugar

Add 1 bottle of ketch-up. Though Ann doesn’tsay how much, I wouldstart out with a verygenerous cup and gofrom there, tasting andadding more as needed.

GrandmaWeaver’sand Lisa Mauch’smom’s barbecue

Lisa Mauch, my for-mer editor, came to therescue, too. Actually, hermom did. “My mom saysthe recipe she’s sharingisn’t precise since shejust adds stuff until itlooks and tastes right.She says the secret is tokeep smushing the mix-ture. She also says shesometimes adds a dashof cinnamon and/or choc-olate.” Sounds like aconfident cook to me! Weget a bonus here, too:Two generations shar-ing.

Grandma Weaver’s

recipe

1pound hamburger1⁄3 cup ketchup1onion (chopped)1 green pepper (diced)1 tablespoon vinegar1 tablespoonmustard1 tablespoon sugar½ teaspoon salt

Lisa’s mom’s recipe

3 pounds ground sirloin(browned)

1 chopped onion and greenpepper

2 tablespoons vinegar2-3 tablespoons mustard1 cup sugar½-¾ bottle of ketchup (24oz.)

Rita’s do-ahead,marinated slaw

This is delicious withthe barbecue and a bitdifferent than the norm.

Salad:

Combine and set asidewhile making dressing:

6-8 cups shredded cabbageor cole slawmix

2 carrots, sliced thin orshredded

1bell pepper, chopped1 cup onion, chopped

Dressing:Bring to a boil, then

simmer, uncovered,10-15 minutes or so, untilslightly thickened:

1 cup sugar1 cup cider vinegar½ cup water2 teaspoons mustard seed(optional but good) or½teaspoon celery seed (alsooptional)

Pour dressing overcabbage mixture. Coverand refrigerate 4 hoursor overnight. Stir beforeserving.

Roasted tomatoesThey’re in season now

so it’s time to preservethem for winter dishes.When a recipe calls forcanned tomatoes, youcan use these. The colorand flavor is amazing.No real recipe, buthere’s how I do it:

Cut tomatoes in half.Lay either cut side up ordown (I laid mine cutside down but next timewill lay them cut side up

since I think that willkeep more of the tomatoflavor in). Drizzle witholive oil. Roast in pre-heated 400 degree ovenuntil tomatoes start tolook spotty and cara-melize a bit. If you havethem cut side down, theskin will inflate and getdark in spots. Let cooland, if you like, removeskins. The first time Imade them I didn’t re-move the skins but whenI used them in cookeddishes, they were a littletough, so my suggestionis to remove them.

You may not know it,but tires can wear out –even if there’s plenty oftread left on them. Insome instances, even thecar tires you buy newmay be too old. That’swhat a College Hill wom-an learned.

Kathleen Metzgerbought four new tiresearlier this year and,after a few months, shestarted noticing prob-lems. “It felt like it wasout of alignment reallybad. You had to haveyour hands on the wheelpretty firm in order tokeep it corrected,”Metzger said.

Metzger’s husbandKen put on a spare tireand, as he did, he saw theproblem with the recent-ly purchased tire. “I sawyou could see the beltright at the end of thetire. These tires are fall-ing apart. There are allthese micro-cracks andfissures in the tires. Iknew that was probablywhat the problem was,”he said.

They went back to thestore that had sold thetires, but were told theywere only able to get awarranty based on thetread wear of the prob-lem tires. Metztger thenwent to another tire storewhere the Department ofTransportation identifi-cation was checked onthe tire’s sidewall.

The first two numbersof the identification tellthe week in which thetire was made – in thecase of one of her tires itwas week 13. The nextnumbers tell you theyear in which it wasmade – in that case itsimply said 4, whichmeant 1994.

“He really didn’t lookat all four tires, he justlooked at one and told methat they shouldn’t be on

the carbecausethey’reway out-dated,”Metzgersaid.

ThetiresMetzgerboughtnew are

actually 17 years old.Clearly, the tires sat on astore shelf for yearsbefore they were sold.And technically there isno expiration date ontires, but now the gov-ernment says after sixyears tires tend to rotand can be dangerous.

Metzger said as aresult of what she’slearned, “I’m very con-cerned. I haven’t beendriving my car for thelast few days. I just

would like a refund or allnew tires.” So, I contact-ed the store that sold thetires and the owner toldme he was unaware ofthe age of the tires whenhe sold them. Given thatthe tires are deteriorat-ing after less than a year,he’s now given her acomplete refund.

Remember, tires candeteriorate inside even ifthey look alright on theoutside. The NationalHighway Traffic SafetyAdministration says tiresare only good for six to 10years. Anything olderthan that, it says, are justnot safe on the roads.
