‘A GREATMEET’ A6Pandas future bright after third-place finish.

VILLAHILLS—VillaHillswilllook into possibly outsourcingthe city’s police department inan effort officials say is to savemoney.

Residents took to the podiumduring the Feb. 21 Villa HillsCity Council meeting to askabout theprocessandvoicecon-cern over losing a local policedepartment.

Loraine Braun asked MayorMike Martin which four agen-cies approached him about pos-sibly taking over police ser-vices.

Although Martin didn’t dis-close them, he did say he’s beenasked over the past two years.

Outsourcing police workcould be bad for the city’s prop-erty values as well as safety,said resident Rich Rosen.

“My concern is that a strong,fully staffed police departmentis critical for maintaining thesafety of our community andthe value of our homes,” Rosensaid.

All options will be exploredbefore the city even considersoutsourcing its police depart-ment Martin said, adding thatother positions such as city at-torney and engineer also havebids up.

“Putting our police depart-ment up doesn’t mean we’re go-ing to change,” Martin said. “...(but) if they say they’re going tosave us a couple hundred thou-sanddollarswe’regoing tohaveto think about it.”

Villa Madonna president resigns

VillaMadonnaAcademywillnot be restructured.

The school’s two principals,one for the high school and onefor the elementary school, willreturn next year. Now theschool president, who had de-cided it was best to let themboth go, has left the Villa Hills

school.In early February, the high

school Principal PamMcQueen, who’s been with theschool for17years, and elemen-tary school Principal SoshanaBosley, who’s been there for 16years, were informed their po-sitions would be eliminatednext school year. They weretold to work through the end oftheir contracts on June 30.

The decision was part of anongoing effort to integrate thetwo schools more thoroughly.There would be one principal,and both were welcome to ap-ply for the job.

But the plan by Villa Madon-na President Anne Maxfieldwas met with vocal protests.

VillaMadonnaAcademy stu-dents, parents and alumni wereactive on social media voicingtheir displeasure. Those voicesseem to have been heard.

The school’s Board of Direc-tors this past week sent sent aletter to parents which stated:

her contract expires June30, 2013.

“Ms. Maxfield morerecently decided that itwould be best to stepdown from her positionprior to June 30; her lastday is today, February 22.

To be clear, this was Ms.Maxfield’s decision.

“The Board is gratefulfor the progressmade un-der her leadership. Shewishes everyone well andis grateful for the timeshe was connected withVilla Madonna Academy.At its recent meeting, theBoard created an Ad HocCommittee charged withrecommending an organi-zational structure for theschool.

“Representatives ofthe board have met withMrs. Soshana Bosley andMrs. Pamela McQueenand are pleased to an-nounce that both will bereturning to Villa as K-6and 7-12 principals re-spectively for the 2013-2014 school year.”

Some parents did notagree with the decisionandsaid itwasmadewith-out asking for any input.

“There was zero par-ent input, and to com-pletely overhaul essen-tially again to go to a com-pletely different systemof theway you’re going torun the school,” said TimToman, a Villa Madonnaparent. “Having a chiefacademic officer and anassistant principal and allthese things ... no otherschool in the area goes bythis model. This is a col-lege model more thananything.”

A petition and Face-book pages to save theprincipals’ positions wascreated circulated online,garnering support fromstudents, parents andalumni.

“I think that as a hu-man being they are abso-lutely exercising theright to express their opi-nion,”Maxfield saidearli-er this month. “I also feelmany people have a veryclose connection withtheir principal ... Changeis uncomfortable.”

Senior Zach Kenneysaid he heard about thedecision Super Bowl Sun-day and started the SaveMrs. McQueen Facebookpage Feb 5.

“I started it because Irecognized that the peo-ple who controlled Villa

(Madonna) were not mak-ing the best decisions,” hesaid. “I knew that Mrs.McQueen should stay anddidn’t deserve to befired.”

A Facebook page wasalso created to supportBosley.

“I just realized that inlife you only get a fewtimes to really stand upforabigcauseand Ididn’twant to miss out on achance to do that,” Zachsaid.

Kenney turned toFacebook to get the wordout because it’s the socialmedia application he’smost familiar with.

The page attractedparents of Villa MadonnaAcademy alumni like Su-san Mustian, who’s alsosigned an online petitionin support of keepingMcQueen and Bosley.

“She’s an outstandingleader in education,”Mustian said ofMcQueen.

“Since kindergartenmy children have been toabout six schools, so Iwasalways an active volun-teer.

“You seemany sides ofthe schools when you goin and volunteer. Noschool’s perfect, but thisschool’s quite special.”

EDGEWOOD—St. Eliza-beth Healthcare is againnamed one of the besthospital systems in theUnited States, a distinc-tion running seven yearsstrongwith officials hint-ing it’s only getting big-ger from here.

Healthgrades includ-ed St. Elizabeth in itsAmerica’s 50 Best Hospi-tals rankings this yearand John Dubis, the hos-pital’s president andchief executive officer,says it’s because of thecare the system offers.

“What it demonstratesand affirms is that thequality of care here isreally superior to most

places in the nation,” Du-bis explained.

Dubis would know.He’s worked in hospitalsin Chicago and his home-town of St. Louis, butsays St. Elizabeth is thebest.

“This place is evenbetter than the other or-ganizations I’ve workedwith in terms of the con-tinuous and clinical out-comes,” he said.

St. Elizabeth is seeingmore growth and has in-vested more than $250million in itself over thelast four years.

Although the systemisn’t based in Cincinnati,somemaynot realize thatit’s the second largesthealth care system in theregion, said Sandra Sims,

director of marketing,public relations and cor-porate communications.

The system’s Coving-ton location is seeing anincrease of patients fromOhio, while many Ken-tuckians are opting tostay in-state for treat-ments.

“Those kinds of thingssay to the population‘They’re doing a greatjob, why do we need to goanywhere else?’” Dubissaid. “So they stay on thisside of the river.”

Later this year St.Elizabeth plans to breakground on a $30 millionHeart andVascular Insti-tute andwillwork ona se-ries of 13 health sponsor-ships including theHeartMini-Marathon inMarch.

St. Elizabeth Healthcare has been named one of America’s 50 Best Hospitals byHealthgrades again this year. St. Elizabeth has gotten this distinction for the past sevenyears, something John Dubis, president and chief executive officer, is proud of. LIBBYCUNNINGHAM/THE COMMUNITY RECORDER

COVINGTON—Studentsat theNotre Dame Urban EducationCenter are coloring in theirpassports and taking a trip toLondonwhile staying inCoving-ton thanks to the Taft Museumof Art.

DianeCarney and SusanWil-kenig do outreach with the Taftas docents. They teach studentsabout art through a programthey’ve done with CincinnatiPublic Schools and now the No-treDameUrbanEducationCen-ter.

TheNotreDameUrban Edu-cation Center is an organizationof theSisters ofNotreDame forurbanstudents.Volunteershighschool aged and above are wel-come to help.

“We’re doing a programteaching them about art aroundthe world,” Carney explained.

For four weeks they workwith the students, taking themon an imaginary trip to Londonto learn about English art.

First, the students learnedabout where Kentucky is in re-lation to England, then aboutEngland.

“We talkedaboutwhat they’dsee, how they’d get there, whatthe climate is like and how topack a suitcase,” Carney ex-plained.

Outreach is part of the Taft’smission, which is why docentsgo to educate students.

This is the first year the Tafthas come to theNotreDameUr-ban Education Center and ispart of arts education that in-cludesvisits fromTheCarnegieVisual and Performing ArtsCenter and drama classes.

“Our program is primarilyone of education ... but we also

have cultural programs as partofwhoweare,”saidSisterMaryReinette Kroeger, executive di-rector. “Our children have veryfew experiences to see art or goto the museum.”

The Cov Cath senior’s nextstep is being part of the school’swell-known student sectionrooting on the school basketballteam competing in the NinthRegion Tournament this week.

“I’m trying to take every-thing in, just participate in mysenior year,” he said. “There isno high school in the countrythat compares to the ColonelCrazies, and I’mhonored to be apart of them.”

Williamson was more inter-ested in the Aqua Colonels as awhole after winning three statetitles Feb. 23 at the Universityof Louisville. He anchored the400-yard freestyle relay to vic-tory and won the 200-yard free-style and 100 backstroke. Therelay and 200 free were wonwithnewstate records, andWil-liamson leaves as the record-holder in the 200 individualmedley, which he won in 2012.

In the relay, he teamed withsophomoreRobbieNewman, ju-niorChaseVennefron and soph-omoreMike Summe to finish in3:06.59, 1.4 seconds better than

St. Xavier’s 1994 mark.“That record means a lot to

me,moreso thananyofmyindi-viduals could ever do,”William-son said. “When you win as ateam and you’ve got four guysputting their hearts into a swimlike that, it’s incredible. Barnone, that was the favorite highschool race I ever had.”

Williamson led off the 200medley relay to start the meet,helping the Colonels to thirdplace, then went right into the200 freestyle. Trailing by abouta second going into the last 50yards, Williamson eventually

“She had some greattimes,” said NDA head coachEmily Knoll. “She got out-touched. What she’s done thisseason, being a leader on theteam, even as a runner-up, shehad a great meet.”

Margroum was on two ofthe three Panda relays, whichall finished in the top four. Lil-lyMorgan,MadeleineVonder-haar, Katie Summe and OliviaHagen were also in two of therelays. Johnson and Kat Akinwere on one.

“The factwe got all four re-lays in the topfour is really im-pressive,” Knoll said. “Withthis competitive of a meet,we’re really happy with that.It’s been a while since we’vehad all our relays score thathigh.”

LOUISVILLE — Bailey Harri-son’s last dive was his favoriteone. And also hismost difficult.

Difficult not only becausethe state championship was onthe line, but the Dixie Heightsjunior’s final divecarriedanof-ficial degreeofdifficultyof2.9.Thatnumber, oneof thehighestof any dives attempted in thefield, is multiplied by judge’smarks to determine a diver’sscore on his attempt.

Harrison made his last divelookeasyandwonhis first statechampionship as a result Feb.23 at the University of Louis-ville. Harrison, who finishedthird in 2012, scored 488.5points in 11 dives in the compe-tition.

“It feels awesome and ithasn’t sunk in yet,” he said.“Going into that last round Iwas a little bit nervous, but Ipulled it out and it felt great.”

Harrison actually trailed re-gional rival Louie Hunt of Co-vington Catholic by less than apoint going into the last round.Harrisondidhis finaldive first,

a 1.5 back somersault with 2.5twists, scoring 62.35 points af-ter judge’smarks ranging from6.5 to 7.5 on a scale of 10. Thenumber was just off his scoreof64onthesamedive inregion-als.

“WhenIwasupon theboard,I was just thinking basics,” hesaid. “How you come off theboard and come off your twist.The biggest thing I’ve beenworking onwith that dive is thetwisting mechanics and how Icame out of the twist.”

Harrison, who will nextcompete in a major meet at In-diana University next month,continued Northern Kentuck-y’s recent domination in theevent afterBeechwood’s JustinYoutseywon theprevious threestate titles before graduating.

“It continues to add to ourNorthernKentucky region,” hesaid. “Having another statechamp from our region showsthe potential of our area.”

The Dixie boys team hadstrong representation at state,

with three relay teams andeight swimmers qualifying insolo events.

Dixie finished 10th in the200-yardmedley relay and13thin the 200 freestyle relay. Sen-iorConnorBrightscoredpointsin the500 freestyleby finishing14th.

A publication of

University projects get a boostThis week was significant

as the first piece of legislationfor the 2013 General Assemblywas signed into law.

The passage of House Bill 7represents a bipartisan com-mitment to the state’s publicuniversities by granting them$363 million in bonding author-ity for much-needed capitalprojects. The state’s six publicuniversities, which includesNorthern Kentucky Univer-sity, will pay for the debt outof their own dedicated reve-nue streams, with no statefunds being used for the pro-jects.

The Senate inserted a mea-sure to protect students byforbidding the use of tuitionincreases to pay the debt. Thismeasure will have the addedbenefit of creating more than

5,000 construc-tion jobs.

As theabove mea-sure givesKentucky’spublic uni-versities theinfrastructureto help ensurecollege-agestudents abetter chanceof success in

their educational and careerendeavors, the Senate adoptedseveral bills designed to in-crease educational opportuni-ties for Kentucky’s high schoolstudents.

Senate Bill 95 would extendthe tuition waiver to fosterand adopted children for thosewho choose to serve in the

military after high school.Senate Bill 109 would allow

high school juniors and sen-iors to use Kentucky Educa-tional Excellence Scholarship(KEES) funds they have al-ready earned to pay for dual-credit college courses. Lastly,Senate Bill 97 would allowlocal school districts to in-crease the dropout age from 16to 18 if they choose, as long asthey have the resources andprograms in place to assist theat-risk students.

Ensuring affordable andquality health care for all Ken-tucky’s citizens is as importantas ensuring quality educationfor the state’s young people.That said, the state cannotafford to implement programsthat will sink the common-wealth into further debt. The

Senate passed Senate Bill 39and Senate Bill 40 to allow thelegislature to weigh in on theimplementation of key parts ofthe Affordable Care Act. Theimplementation of this federallegislation stands to have acostly, statewide impact, par-ticularly from the expansionof the state’s Medicaid pro-gram to 400,000 new individ-uals. Senate Bill 39 wouldprovide that any expansion ofMedicaid must be approved bythe General Assembly.

Likewise, Senate Bill 40would require the GeneralAssembly to approve the cre-ation of any state-run healthbenefits exchange. These billsare designed to ensure thesedecisions are not made solelyby the executive branch andallow deliberation by the en-

tire legislature in order to putthe best and most cost-effec-tive policies and programs inplace for the citizens of thecommonwealth.

Finally, the Senate took astep toward helping smallbusinesses, particularly con-struction businesses, with thepassage of Senate Bill 49. Thismeasure would expand theoption to use mechanic’s liensas a tool to collect payment forservices which they have pre-viously performed.

If you have any questionsor comments about the issuesor any other public policyissue, please call me toll-freeat 1-800-372-7181.

Tea Par-tiers don’tunderstandthat they can’timprove gov-ernment ifthey can’t winthe generalelections. Infour key U.S.Senate pri-mary races in2010 and 2012,Tea Party

candidates defeated moremoderate GOP candidatesthen lost the general electionsbecause their voter base wastoo narrow. The TP candidatesappealed only to the rightwing Republicans. Moderates,liberals and others wouldn’tvote for them because of theirfar right stridency. TP rightwing “purity” drove votersaway leaving liberal Demo-crats like Harry Reid control-ling the Senate.

Now, the TPs want to chal-lenge Mitch McConnell, thesecond most powerful man inthe U.S. Senate, because theydon’t consider him “conserva-tive” enough. That is justplain stupid.

As to Sen. Barry Gold-water, he maintained his rightwing purity and lost the gen-eral election to Lyndon John-son leaving LBJ to lead us into“the Great Society” welfarestate and the Vietnam War.

If the TPs want to be morerelevant than the extinct JohnBirch Society, they shouldwork to defeat Democrats, notRepublicans. Focusing ontaking out Republicans onlymakes the TPs look like Dem-ocrats and it accomplishesnothing constructive for thecountry.

In an earlier column,Shields referred to the fourmillion “conservatives” whodidn’t vote for Mitt Romneybecause they considered himto not be “conservative”enough. He’s right. Obama got

62,611,250 popular votes. Rom-ney got 59,134,475 votes,3,476,775 less than Obama. Ifthey had voted, Romneywould have won by 523,225votes. Looking at close racesin states like Virginia andothers, Romney would haveprobably won the electoralvote and the election, too.

I agree with Mr. Shieldsthat Democrats have done amasterful job of suckeringblacks into being willing polit-ical pawns for Democrat can-didates. However, I don’tthink disparaging AbrahamLincoln by minimizing theEmancipation Proclamation isconstructive. Lincoln wasanti-slavery his entire life.

His father moved the fam-ily from Kentucky to Illinoisbecause he didn’t want toraise his family in a slavestate. He argued against localoption for slavery in the Lin-coln-Douglas Debates in Illi-nois in 1858. He explored allkinds of ways to end slavery,including sending them toLiberia. However, he finallydecided the only way to endslavery was to issue executiveorders that were published inthe Emancipation Proclama-tion, publicized on Sept. 22,1862m and signed (made ef-fective) on Jan. 1, 1863.

Lincoln also urged the Re-publican-dominated 39th Con-gress to pass the 13th Amend-ment which outlawed slavery.Lincoln signed it though hedidn’t have to. Congress sentit to the states on Feb. 1, 1865,and it was ratified by thestates on Dec. 6, 1865.

One unfortunate historicalnote: The people of Kentuckydidn’t ratify the 13th, 14th and15th Amendments until 1976.They voted against them inthe late 1860s because whites,mostly Democrats, felt theywere outnumbered by freedslaves who would take overthe state.

By minimizing Lincoln anddisparaging Senator McCon-nell, Tea Party people aresounding more and more likeDemocrats and not a bit likeRepublicans. That’s what isbothering me the most.

This week the RegularSession of the KentuckyGeneral Assembly reachedits halfway point, with theSenate passing legislation oneducation, health care, judi-cial matters and economicdevelopment.

House Bill 7, the first billto pass both chambers andbe signed into law by Gover-nor Beshear, authorizes sixof the state’s eight publicuniversities to bond $363million for 11 specific build-ing projects, including reno-vation and expansion of Al-bright Health Center atNorthern Kentucky Univer-sity, a new science buildingat the University of Ken-tucky, and an Honors Collegeand International Center atWestern Kentucky Univer-sity, among other projects.

The measure requires thebonds to be paid for by theuniversities and not withstate tax dollars. This billwill help the universitieswith much needed classroomand housing improvementswhile creating over 5,000construction jobs. As anadded measure of protectionfor college students, theSenate inserted a stipulationthat the universities couldnot raise tuition in order torepay the debt. Passage ofthis bill is a perfect exampleof bipartisan governing.

In addition to helping ourpublic universities, the Sen-ate also focused on provid-ing assistance to our highschool students with its pas-sage of Senate Bills 109 and97. Senate Bill 109 wouldpermit high school juniorsand seniors to use their Ken-tucky Education ExcellenceScholarship (KEES) awardsearly to pay for dual creditcourses.

Senate Bill 97 is aimed athelping more students grad-uate from high school bygiving local school districtsthe option to increase the

dropout agefrom 16 to 18,providedthey havethe fundsand ap-proved al-ternativeprograms tomeet theneeds ofthese stu-dents. To-

day’s high school studentsare competing on a globalscale. These types of mea-sures give Kentucky’s chil-dren a better chance forsuccess while preservinglocal control of educationdecisions.

The Senate passed twopieces of legislation on Fri-day, Senate Bill 39 and Sen-ate Bill 40, which would al-low the legislature to weighin on the implementation ofkey parts of the AffordableCare Act. The implementa-tion of this federally mandat-ed legislation stands to havea costly, statewide impact,particularly from the expan-sion of the state’s Medicaidprogram with the addition of400,000 new individuals.Senate Bill 39 would providethat any expansion of Medi-caid must be approved bythe General Assembly. Like-wise, Senate Bill 40 wouldrequire the General Assem-bly to approve the creationof any state-run health bene-fits exchange. These billsare designed to ensure thebest and most cost-effectivepolicies and programs areput in place and taxpayers’dollars are used wisely.

Senate Bill 6, legislationwhich would increase thepenalties for those dealing inheroin, especially whenthose actions directly resultin death, passed the Senate.This measure will help en-sure heroin does not becomethe statewide scourge wesaw with pill abuse.

Lastly, the Senate tookaction this week to assist oneof the state’s premier indus-tries with the passage ofSenate Bill 110, a bill I spon-sored. This bill will give amuch needed boost to theKentucky Standardbredhorse industry by allowingall Kentucky-bred trottersand pacers to compete forpurses provided by the Ken-tucky Standardbred Devel-opment Fund.

While no more bills willbe filed in these final 13 days(the deadline has passed fornew bills), the Senate will beconsidering many more bills.Your input is important. Ifyou have any questions orcomments about the issuesor any other public policyissue, please call me toll-freeat 1-800-372-7181.

PARK HILLS — Nearly 140girls toured 12 countries in lessthan two hours on Feb. 21, andthey didn’t even have to get on aplane.

They just had to go to St. Ag-nes Church, where a dozen GirlScout troops from Fort Mitch-ell, Fort Wright and Park Hillshadan informativeand tasty In-ternational Night.

“It’s to celebrate WorldThinking Day, Feb. 22 eachyear, when we’re challenged tothink beyond our immediate,everydayworld and learn abouthow girls in other lands livetheir lives,” said Amy Cribbs,leader for Daisy Troop 1707 atSt. Agnes.

Cribbs also coordinated the

event along with other localtroop leaders, and hopes theevent was the “first of many.”

Brazil, Egypt, England, Fin-land, France, Israel, Italy, Ja-pan,Mexico, Spain, Sweden andSwitzerland were representedat the event, where girlsdressed in costumes and sharedinformation and foods fromtheir different countries, alongwith hot dogs donated by Sky-line Chili of Fort Wright.

Cribbs’ Troop 1707 sang“Shabbat Shalom” during theirIsrael presentation, and woremasks in honor of the Jewishholiday Purim.

In Brazil, the girls of Troop2112 dressed for Carnivale, andshared orange slices sprinkledwith salt and pepper.

“We had a sleepover and thegirls tested different foods,”

said Shelly Sandfoss, troop co-leader. “Hands down, theythought the orangeswere out ofsight.”

St. Agnes Junior Troop 436taught about Egypt by sharingbookmarks written with hiero-glyphs that spelled out “Read aBook.”

The foods were probably thegirls’ favorite part.

In England, they got to tryshepherd’s pie, sushi in Japan,salsa in Mexico and Spanishrice inSpain. Italyhadpastasal-ad as well as gelato.

“That is my favorite,” saidParker Cribbs, 6, of St. AgnesDaisy Troop 1707.

After learning about eachcounty, the girls got their pass-ports stamped with a specialsticker.

The only reason wekeep chickens is to getfresh eggs.

I grew up eating eggsjust about every day,

especiallyon schooldays. Andeggs are soversatile.If I haveeggs in therefriger-ator, I feellike I’vegot a meal,no matterhow lean

the budget or how barethe pantry.

Think about this: Eggsare all natural, and oneegg has lots of vitaminsand minerals with onlyabout 70 calories. Thenutrients in eggs canplay a role in weightmanagement, musclestrength, healthy preg-nancy, brain function,eye health and more.Eggs got a bad rap a fewyears ago but now healthprofessionals are back onthe egg bandwagon – justdon’t overdo eating them.

One of the first tablefoods we feed the babiesfor breakfast are eggs.The protein in eggs is thehighest-quality proteinfound in any food.

Simple quiche

Sometimes we forgetabout the really easymeals. Quiche is one ofthose. Most of us haveeggs, onions and cheeseon hand and those ingre-dients alone, with milkadded, make a deliciousquiche. When I want tomake the quiche special,I use whipping cream.Now be sure to mince theonions very small so theycook well. Otherwise,just sauté them in a bit ofbutter until they’re trans-lucent before adding tothe egg mixture. I got theoriginal recipe, before Iadapted it, from a foodmagazine, but can’t recallwhich one.

9- or 10-inch pie pan linedwith pie dough

10-12 slices bacon, crisplyfried and crumbled(optional, but so good)

1 heaping cup shreddedSwiss cheese (or yourfavorite, try extra sharpcheddar)

1⁄3 cupminced onions4 large eggs, roomtemperature

2 cups whipping cream, halfand half or milk

About 1 teaspoon salt and 1⁄2teaspoon pepper

Preheat oven to 350degrees.

Sprinkle bacon,cheese and onion in pan.Whisk eggs well andwhisk in cream and sea-sonings. Pour into pan.Pour mixture into piepan. Bake 45-60 minutesor until knife inserted 1inch from edge comesout clean.

Tips from Rita’skitchen

Substitute about 1 cupchopped ham or 1⁄2 poundcooked sausage for the

bacon. A few dashescayenne pepper are goodin here. If crust brownstoo much before quicheis done, make a “collar”of foil around the crust.

Pineapple crunchcake

Don’t look for a highand fluffy cake here.This is a moist, densecake that keeps well inthe refrigerator. Yes, it’seven better the next day.I’ve tweaked the recipe

through the years andnow add more vanillathan I used to. I like totoast my pecans in a 350degree oven for about 8minutes or so, until theysmell fragrant, beforechopping. You don’t haveto toast the nuts, though.Now if you don’t addnuts, just call it pineap-ple cake. This is a yum-my snacking cake.

2 large eggs, roomtemperature, lightlybeaten

2 cups sugar2 cups all-purpose flour2 teaspoons baking soda1 tablespoon vanilla1⁄2 to 1 cup chopped pecansmixed with a little of theflour (optional)

1 20 oz. can unsweetened,undrained, crushedpineapple

Extra chopped pecans forgarnish

Preheat oven to 350degrees. Whisk sugar,flour and baking sodatogether. Add vanilla,eggs and pineapple andblend well. Stir in nutsPour into sprayed 9-inchby 13-inch pan. Bake inpreheated 350 degreeoven for 35-40 minutesuntil toothpick insertedin center comes out fair-ly clean. Don’t overbake.Cool, and frost with

cream cheese icing.Serves 12 generously.

Tip from Rita’skitchen

By tossing nuts with abit of flour, they willremain suspended in thecake and not sink to thebottom.

Cream cheese icing1⁄2 stick butter or margarine,softened

8 oz, cream cheese, softened1 to 11⁄2 cups confectionerssugar

2 teaspoons vanilla

Beat butter and creamcheese. Add sugar andvanilla. Blend. Frostcooled cake. Sprinkle onnuts if using.

Natural disastersaround the country andhere in the Tristate areleading to higher insur-ance premiums.

Although the OhioDepartment of Insurancesays auto and homeown-er’s insurance rates areamong the lowest in thecountry, increases arecoming.

The Cincinnati Insur-ance Board tells me in-creases can be expectedfrommore andmoreinsurance companies –and rate hikes up to 30percent are not uncom-mon.

Wanda Human ofReading said she hadbeen noticing her insur-

ance pre-miumsgoing upfor thepast yearand a half.It beganwith herauto insur-ance.

“$341every six

months was very satis-factory. I dealt with itwhen it went to $395every six months butwhen you go up to $514every six months, comeon that’s kind of ridicu-lous,” Human said.

Human called herinsurance agent and wastold it was due to Hurri-cane Sandy and the de-struction it caused on theeast coast. Human saidthat came as quite a sur-prise.

“I was told if a disas-ter happened in yourstate you could see therates going up in thatstate, but not the wholeentire United States ...

The insurance agentexplained to me that shehad receivedmany, manycalls about this. I said,‘Are a lot of people drop-ping you?’ and she said,‘Yes, they are.’”

In addition to her autoinsurance, Human saysshe’s seen her homeown-er’s premiums going up.She had it renewed onceand has seen the premi-um go from $790 to $981 –almost a $200 increase –and that was even beforethe east coast storm.

In talking with herinsurance agent Humansays she’s learned herrate hikes aren’t unusual.“She said that there aresome increases of 30percent on some people,people who hadn’t evenfiled any claims,” Humansaid.

Human says she’sdecided to switch to an-other insurance compa-ny. I told her that’s finebut when she switchesshe needs to make achange in her deductible.

I found her auto insur-ance policy has a verylow $250 deductible.Human said she didn’tthink that would be aproblem – until now. Itold her she can reduceher premium by increas-ing her deductible from$250 to $500.

When it comes to Hu-man’s homeowner’s in-surance policy, she candecrease that premiumby increasing her deduct-ible to $1,000.

Remember, filing ahomeowner’s insuranceclaimwill go against yourrecord and your policycould be canceled if youhave toomany claims.Therefore, depending onthe size of your house, itmay even pay you toincrease your deductibleto $3,000. After all, home-owners insurance is real-ly only designed to covermajor losses so it oftendoesn’t pay to file a claimif the damage is less than$3,000.
