ered. Board member andtreasurer Kirk Kava-naugh said the PumpkinChuck is expected to gen-erateabout$7,000 in reve-nue. He said expenses arebudgeted at about $4,000and that the “net income”is expected to be about$3,000. He said 400 pump-kinswere launched at lastyear’s Pumpkin Chuck.

Kavanaugh said the

event is beneficial in en-gaging the community.“(It) involves families andchildren in a worthwhileactivity,” he said.

Additionally, Kava-naugh said radio stationWNKU has a live four-hourbroadcast during theevent. That is “a hugemagnet” in getting peoplenot only in theTristatebutoutside of the area to at-tend, he said.

However, concernswere raised about weath-er impacting attendance.

Although Jack Vilardo,

presidentof theMt.Wash-ington Community UrbanRedevelopmentCorp., didnot vote, he expressedreservations that moneywas being invested in anevent which could poten-tially be jeopardized bybad weather. “What if it’sa washout,” he asked.

However, Vonderhaarsaid the previous Pump-kin Chucks have been asuccess regardless of theweather.

This year’s PumpkinChuck will be Saturday,Nov. 1, at Stanbery Park.

intendent Dallas Jacksonsaid, “I believe individ-uals who say that we arenot going far enough arebasing it on what they in-dividually think we needto do.

“We have consultedwith a number of experts,and we are confident thisbond issuewill address allour needs.”

BothJacksonandFroo-man cited a recent surveyinwhich respondents saidtheypreferred a less cost-ly plan.

One of the optionswhich had been proposedwas a $173 million plan tototally renovate both highschools and the middleschool and replace thecurrent six elementaryschools with four larger,totally new elementaryschools.

Board Vice PresidentJulie Bissinger said whatis vitally important is thatthe proposed bond issuehave a community “uni-fied” behind it.

Bissinger has ex-pressed reservationsabout the proposed plan.She was the only boardmember to vote against

putting the bond issue onthe ballot during the Julymeeting.

At the time, Bissingersaid she would have pre-ferred a broader, long-termplanwithmore feed-back from teachers andstudents.

Jackson cautioned thatif the ballot issue fails thedistrict will have to con-tinue using general funddollars for building needsasopposedto“curricular”needs.

“This isnot thebestuseof tax dollars,” he said.

Anderson TownshipresidentPeteSchianosaidhe doesn’t dispute the

need for building im-provements. However, hesaid the district shouldconsider other options.

“We cannot continue torun the budget at ninebuildings,” he said, add-ing that elementaryschool consolidationshould be a consideration.

If the bond issuepasses, the initial stagesof the design and con-struction process couldstart as early as March,according to Frooman.Most of the constructionwork would be done dur-ing the summers withcompletion of the projectanticipated in July 2018.

Transportation plan-ners said they selectedthese improvements fol-lowing a comprehensive

alternative evaluationprocess that looked atmultiple options and in-cluded preliminary engi-neering, environmentalstudies, extensive coordi-nation with the ClermontCountyEngineer’s Office,and three public involve-mentmeetings.

Selection factors con-sidered howwell the vari-ous options met projectgoals, functionality, po-tential impacts, construc-tion costs and input fromarea residents and busi-nesses.

“We’re excited thatwe’ve reached this impor-tantmilestone in theworkto improve travel alongstate Route 32, which iswidely-recognized as animportant artery for east-west travel in the region,”said Jay Hamilton, pro-ject manager for the OhioDepartment of Transpor-tation office in Lebanon.

TheOhio-Kentucky-In-diana Regional Council ofGovernments has provid-ed funds to build theClep-per Lane extension and tomake improvements onOld state Route 74 fromSchoolhouse Road toGlenEste-Withamsville Road,so those projects will be-gin in the summer of 2018.

MT.WASHINGTON—Lit-tle clouds of ground-upblack rubber followMeghan Martella like apersonal storm front.

The McNicholas HighSchool senior co-captainof the girls soccer teamruns, slides, dives andjumps around Penn Sta-tion Stadium churning upthe artificial turf at analarming rate.

The diminutive mid-fielder had two goals andan assist throughMcNick’s first sevengames, but scoring is onlypart ofwhatmakesher in-valuable to the Rockets.

“She does a lot of theleading by example,” saidMcNick head coach BenKirkpatrick. “She’s a verysmart and technical play-er. When I give instruc-tions, I’m very comfort-able with her caryingthem out and explaingthem to the team. That’swhat makes her such agood captain.”

That and her hustle.“She’s got a great mo-

tor and is really aggres-sive,” Kirkpatrick said.“She never gives up on aball.”

Martella - an Ameliaresident - comes by hersoccer acumen honestly.Her dad, Jay, played atTurpin High School andher uncle Rob Martellawas a star on the Spartans1986 state title team.Meghan began playing atage four, but doesn’t seeherself playing competi-tively plast high school.

“It was one of the hard-est decisions I’ve made,but I’m going to concen-trate on school,” she said,adding that shewould liketo be a teacher, a nurse orstudy sportsmanagementin college. “I love soccer -I’ll always love soccer -but I just don’t think I canplay another four years.”

The Rockets improvedto 7-0-0 with a 1-0 home

win over St. Ursula Acad-emy Sept. 11, and addedanother with a win overMercy Sept. 15. McNickentered the game rankedfirst in the Division II En-quirer coaches’ poll, whiletheBulldogswere third inDivision I.

Martella called thewinover SUA her favoritesoccer memory to date.

“It’s been five or eightyears since we’ve beatenthem,” she said. “Nobodyeven remembers the lasttime. Being a senior now,it wasn’t something Icould have imagined do-ing when I started here.It’s a great win for ourteam. We’re undefeatedso far and this was a big,big game.”

Kirkpatrick liked it,too.

“As a smaller school,wewantachance togooutand get some respect,” hesaid. “A win against agreat team like St. Ursulagives that to us.”

The win, however,came at a price. McNicksophomore Sophie Gor-man- the leadingscorer inthe GGCL Coed - netted

ANDERSON TWP. — The EasternCincinnatiConferenceiscurrentlyhometoahotlycontestedbattleforthe volleyball crown.

Three teams are on a collisioncourse to decide the title in the fi-nalweekof the regular season.An-dersondefeatedLovelandathome,but then lost to Turpin. The Spar-tans started the season 7-0 in con-ference play before dropping twostraight to Loveland and Kings.The Tigers also have just one con-ference loss, to theRedskins. Eachteam still controls its own destiny,with three rematches on the hori-zon.

“Playing in the ECC is tough inthat we have to play each teamtwice,” said Spartans head coachKathyCarboy. “At theendofroundone, three teams have one loss andare still competing each night forthe league title.”

The scheduling format pro-

vides hope for each team. EvenMilford, with three conferencelosses,hasachancetoovertakethetop three. One way or another, theSpartans are going to decide whowins the league. Turpin hosts An-derson onOct. 7 and plays at Love-

land twonights later in the regularseason finale.

“It isveryhardtogoundefeatedin conference play,” Carboy said,“but at this point we control ourdestiny as we strive towards thattitle.”

If the first matches are any in-dication, therewill be someclassicvolleyball contests played downthe stretch in the ECC. The Red-skins earned a four-gamewin overLoveland and took five games todefeat Glen Este.

After one play Satur-dayatPennStationStadi-um, it looked like McNi-cholas’ division title de-fensemight end before ittruly began.

On the first play fromscrimmage, senior Pur-cell Marian quarterbackMcKell Jones connectedwith juniorwidereceiverJamele Howard over themiddle. Howard sprintedpast his defender andtook it the rest of thewayfor an 80-yard touch-down. The Cavaliers’hopes of upsetting hostMcNicholas, rankedthird in the Enquirer’sDivision IVcoaches’ poll,ended shortly thereafter.The Rockets (4-0 overall,1-0 GCL) ran off 20 unan-swered points and heldon for a 30-14 win, begin-

ning their quest toward athird straight GreaterCatholic League CoedCentral title. “We cameout a little flat,” saidMcNicholas coach MikeOrlando. “If we’re goingto be the team we thinkwe can be, we’ve got totakecareof thatstuffandclean it up.”

McNicholas capital-ized on favorable fieldposition all afternoon asPurcell Marian (2-2, 0-1)struggled to move theball aside from a pair ofdeep catch-and-runs. Onthree consecutive drivesin the first half, theRock-ets began in Cavalier ter-ritory, scoring on allthree. Following up a 10-for-10 first quarter, sen-ior McNicholas QB LukeSulken hit senior tightend Elliot Higgins over aleaping defensive backfor a 25-yard TD. Sulken

completed 20 of his 25passes Saturday for 178yards. In desperate needof a response, Jones ledPurcell Marian on anoth-er short drive, hittingsenior wide receiver JairKnox as the pocket col-lapsed. Knox found roomto run down the left side-line, reaching the endzone for an 84-yard scorethat cut the McNicholaslead to six at halftime.

Of Jones’ 138 passingyards, 120 of them cameon the two TD passes. Hefinished 5-for-15 and alsothrew two INTs. But, onMcNicholas’ thirdplayofthe third quarter, Sulkenfound a hole and carriedtheball 55yards foraTD.Midway through thefourth quarter, he puntedto pin Purcell Marian in-side its own 10, and theCavalier offense failed toclimbback into thegame.

“We obviously hopeit’s not too serious,”Kirkpatrick said. “Butwe’re going to have tofind a way to play with-out her for a little whileat least.”

MartellaContinued from Page A5

Lilly O’Toole has competitive fire in herblood. It’s little surprise that the WalnutHills sophomore is off to a great start to thetennis season. Undefeated through her firstnine matches (17-2 as of Sept. 22), includinga redemptive win over a rival, the grand-daughter of Cincinnati Reds Hall of Famepitcher Jim O’Toole is on track to againqualify for the state tournament.

O’Toole’s win streak includes a victoryover Mason sophomore Lizzie Kong, whodefeated O’Toole in last year’s sectional anddistrict tournaments. Avenging those de-feats against one of her close friends wasreassuring.

“That definitely gave me a boost to myconfidence,” said O’Toole. “It showed methat my hard work is paying off.”

Ever since last year’s first round state

tournament exit, O’Toole has been workingon improving her game. She trains withWalnut Hills head coach Steve Levine andwith coach Andrew Conley at MercyHealthplex Anderson. She participated in

two summer tournaments in Chicagoagainst new competition. After losing to asenior at state last year, the underclassmanis focused on playing up to her competitionthis year.

“I’ve been hitting asmany balls as I can,”she said. “I basically learned that if Iwant tobeat them, I have towork10 times harder tobeat them.”

Levine has been coaching O’Toole fortwo years and admires her coachability. Inthe past year, she has changed her racket,her serve and her forehand. Whatever Lev-ine suggests, O’Toole takes to heart.

“She is trusting. From the very begin-ning, everything I told her, there was noth-ing but, ‘OK, I’ll try,’” said Levine. “That re-lationship is key. A lot of kids are afraid tolose what they have. She focuses on whatshe wants and is more than willing tochange to get there.”

Hard work pays off for Anderson residentBy Adam [email protected]

Walnut Hills’ Lilly O'Toole is 9-0 to start hersophomore season, including a win against one ofher biggest rivals from last year.

ways a high energy gamewhere both teams alwaysplay each other tough.Our girls invested them-selves in the match andwereable tomentally staytough, even when thingsweren't going their way.”

Turpin started the fifthgame on a run of points,which gave the Spartansconfidence to close outthe match. Claire Arm-bruster and LaurenKoba-suk provided the sparkfor the Spartans.

TheRedskins boast thebest overall record in theleague, with an 11-3 markand the lone conferenceloss to their arch rival.The Spartans are just 7-7overall, but have played agrueling schedule andhave already improvedupon last season’s disap-pointing 5-18 mark.

“We have the strongestnon-conference schedulein the league. We haveplayed some top teams inthe city and competedwith them,” said Carboy.“After a 5-18 season, Ithink our girls now knowthat they can play withanyone and be successfulif they work together. Ithas prepared us well forleague play as we move

forward.”The best thing about

the five-game match be-tween Anderson and Tur-pin is that the teamsget todo it again in a fewweeks.In the highly-anticipatedrematch, there will beeven more on the line.Braggingrightsand,mostimportantly, a conferencetitle, hang in the balance.

CINCINNATI — Both St.Ursula Academy andSummit Country Dayhave new field hockeycoaches guiding their re-spective clubs.

AtSUA, JillMeiring in-herited a team thatreached the regionalsemifinals last season be-fore bowing out followinga frigid - both literallyand figuratively - 1-0 lossto rival Ursuline Acad-emy.

“My transition hasbeen great,” Meiringsaid. “(Previous coach)Sarah Catlin did a greatjob with the girls the lastfew years. They are fun-damentally sound andknow how to work hard.”

Still, the offense re-mains a little chilly so farfor the Bulldogs, whowere 2-4 through theirfirst six matches. Amongthe four losseswere three1-0 scores.

“Our defense is prettysolid,” Meiring said. “Ifwe could put the ball inthe cage, we’d be danger-ous. I expect us to get thatmonkey off our backpretty soon, though.We’re pretty close to put-ting it all together andhaving a break-out gamefor our offense.”

The Bulldogs have sixseniors on the roster, ledby midfielder Taylor

Swope, and Indiana Uni-versity recruit. Class-mate Claire Conaroe an-chors the defense in thegoal, while versatile sen-ior Claudia Vollman seesaction on defense, in themidfield and at forward.

Junior Katie Carrollleads the team in scoringso far this season, withthree of her team’s ninegoals. “We’re kind ofyoung, even though wehave a few experiencedplayer,” Meiring said.“We just have to keep do-ing everything the waywe’ve been doing it, keepgetting better everygame, and the wins aregoing to come. we playvery tough schedule, sowe’re going to be readyfor the playoffs.”

For Summit CountryDay, 2009 graduate ElliMcSwain returns to heralma mater to coach theteam she played on notmany years ago. In whatmay be the youngestcoachingduo in the city inany varsity sport,McSwain is assisted by2012 Summit graduateChristina Cashen.

“I walked into a greatsituation,” McSwain said.“It’s the sport I love at theschool I love. I was a lifer(K-12). My brother andsister are still in theschool. It’s a great oppor-tunity for me.”

McSwain and her teamwill have to grow up to-

gether quickly to im-prove on the 0-3 start totheir season. The SilverKnights have 20 playerson the roster, but nine ofthem are freshmen.

Senior defender AnneKlette, senior midfielderLily Kaegi and juniormidfielder/forwardKatieByrne share the captain-cy. Senior Lily Kroncke isone of the veterans at for-ward.

Sophomore ClaireHellmann returns at mid-field and forward, whilejunior Olivia Northropclimbs into the cage asgoalie. “We’re such ayoung team, we’re reallylearning the game andlearning to play togetheras a group,” McSwainsaid. “Our seniors havebeen through it and theydo such a great job keep-ing each other and the

younger players up.For athletic disci-

plines that begin in Au-gust, the ultimate goal isoften playing into No-vember.

SUA, Summit have new coaches

OUR ELECTIONS LETTERS,COLUMNS POLICY

Are wewillingto pay for the best?

As a longtime AndersonTownship resident, I’mproud tobe part of this community andraise my children here.

Although they aren’t schoolage yet, I’m proud to soon givethem the opportunity to receivean excellent education. I’m notproudof theconditions inwhichchildren in our district are be-ing educated including the fail-ing or failed mechanical sys-tems.

Students are learning whileit’s raining on their head. Stu-dents arewearing coats indoorsin the winter because the win-dows don’t block drafts and theheating systems need replaced.Both are distractions we canmitigate.

Yes, I realize it’s not thebuilding that provides the ex-cellent education. It’s the teach-ers. We have among the best,but howmuch longer is the bestwilling to progressively teachtheir students using laptopswhen there aren’t enough elec-trical outlets for students tocharge them?Orwhen teachingin the trailers at Maddux andWilson, they have to send stu-dents across the parking lotalone to use the restroom?

We all have a stake in the fu-ture success of our community.Continuing to educate in thesecrumbling buildings begets acrumbling community. Shouldour district become known forsuperior education in inferiorenvironments, not only is it un-safe for our children, it threat-ens property values. I’m not be-ing dramatic, I’m being realis-tic.

This bond is not asking forluxury. It’s askingforsafe,qual-ity learning environments forroughly 7,500 students as theybuild the foundation for theirfuture.Thisbond iscomprehen-sive, fiscally responsible and, inmy opinion, a wise investmentfor all.

Pleaseseekout the facts, talkto our board members and ad-ministration. Visit the district

website and www.foresthills-bond2014.com.

Let’scometogetherasacom-munity. Invest in our children,our future, our community byvoting for Issue 4 on Nov. 4.

Sarah Meyer McGoughAnderson Township

Don’t take schoolsfor granted

Howoften dowe take time toreflect on how fortunate we areto live in a democracy?

Most of us,me included, takeit for granted way too often.Those of us in the Village ofNewtown and Anderson Town-ship often take our parks, ourfire department, our schools,ourentirecommunityforgrant-ed. Just a fewminuteswatchingwhat is happening around theworld should remind us howlucky we have it.

Let’s not takeourcommunityfor granted especially Nov 4.That daywewill have an oppor-tunity tovoteyes for Issue4andbydoingso,wewill enhanceourcommunity by investing $103million in our school buildings.Pretty big number! Some sayit’s not enough.That’swhatade-mocracy is all about, not every-one agrees to one plan. In thiscase, however, our electedBoard of Education has gone tothe “bank” and learned that’sour credit limit.

Most of us takegreat pride inliving within our means. Ourschool board is doing just that.Support them, support Issue 4.We will not only be enhancingour school district’s reputationfor exemplary schools, but in-vesting in our community andtoday’s and tomorrow’s kids,andenhancingourpropertyval-ues. It’s a win-win-win! Let’sembrace our democracy, stoptaking things for granted, andget to the polls: vote yes for Is-sue 4.

Freedom of speechIt iscalledfreedomofspeech

for a reason.Marilyn Ray’s comments

stating shame on The Commu-nity Press for printing KaseyBaker’s article is the very es-sence of what she Is talkingabout. She (Kasey) has an opi-nion and Marilyn is saying itshould not be printed. What-ever!

Ihavereadbotharticles,OneformKaseyBakerandonefromMarilyn Ray. I have to say Iagree with Kasey Baker. It hasalso been my experience that ifyou oppose a Liberal (mostlyDemocrat), they try to demo-nize your character. When youtry to speak on a certain issueand present facts, Liberals liketo change the subject as soon asthey find out you oppose them.

Marilynalso states thatRushLimbaugh and Bill O’Reillyscream in your face. I say turndown the volume or change thechannel (simple enough).

Liberalswill say thatConser-vativeshaveclosedminds. I saypeople with open minds shouldbe open to the truth.

Freedom of speech foreverandGodblessAmerica forever!

Our children deservea ‘yes’ vote

I am a longtime resident ofAnderson Township, a retiredelementary school teacher,grandmother of a Madduxthird-grader, and I am passion-ate about educating our chil-dren.

Our schools need repairs andupdating to meet the needs oftoday’s curriculum and safetyissues. Just as our roads andbridgesareagingandneed tobekept in good condition, so mustour schools.

Our children and grandchil-dren are our future leaders.They deserve the best possibleenvironment for learning.Please vote yes for the ForestHills bond levy Nov. 4.

Carole RaymondAnderson Township

Bond issue helps‘pay it forward’

Asaparent, I thinkit’s impor-tant to continue to have the bestpossible schools in AndersonTownship.

I want my child to study in aschool that offers top-notchtechnology and go to a buildingthatoffersallFHSDstudentsanenvironment that is conduciveto learning.

As a community, we canagree that our school buildingsneed to be safe. We shudderthinking about what would hap-pen if someone with ill intentgained access to one of ourschool buildings. Safety, flexi-ble learning spaces and im-proved technology are all dras-tically needed.

Anderson is a desirable areaand for most, it was the qualityof our schools that landed ushere. Forest Hills has alwaysbeen a good steward. When youlook at overall expenditures perstudent, Forest Hills spendsless per pupil than equallywell-rated Mariemont schools and

Sycamore schools.As a small business owner, I

knowthatourcommunityneedsthese long over-due school im-provements to continue to becompetitive. I also understandcompetition and the economicrealities facingeachofus today.The tax rate for this bond issueis 4.95 mills. So, given that theaverage home in AndersonTownship is$157,900(accordingto the www.andersontownshi-p.org website), it will cost theaverage Anderson resident lessthan $1 per day to make im-provements that are vitallyneeded.

Twenty-one years ago, Igraduated from Anderson. I’mproud tohaveahomeanda fam-ily in the same communitywhere I grew up. I want ourcommunitytoremainstrongforfuture generations.We can onlydo that by making this invest-ment in our schools. By payingit forward. I encourage each ofyou to cast a vote in favor of thebond issue of Nov. 4.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

In the wake of all the talkabout Union Terminal andMusic Hall, I thought it mightbe a good time to call attentionto another iconic building inour region; Memorial Hall.

Memorial Hall is next toMusic Hall on Elm Street fac-ing the incredibly transformedWashington Park in Over theRhine. Although not quite thesame stature as Music Hall,one quick tour of this 106 year-old building will leave no doubtabout its place in the line of upimportant places in our region.

Memorial Hall was built bythe Grand Army of Republicand Hamilton County as a me-morial to the military of thecity and county. Although Ihave lived here all my life, Iwas only introduced to Memo-rial Hall about four years ago,where I had the pleasure ofmeeting Marge Hammelrath, along-time advocate of the arts,who was working with a groupof passionate volunteers tobring somemuch needed at-

tention to thehall.

Like anyother centuryold building,Memorial Hallis also in needof millions ofdollars of re-pair and resto-ration. Today,under the lead-ership of Bill

Baumann, president of theCincinnati Memorial Hall Soci-ety, and Executive DirectorTeresa Summe-Haas, Memori-al Hall is thriving as a placefor concerts, weddings, meet-ings and other special events.

They have also workedtirelessly with county commis-sioners and administrators,3CDC and Friends of MemorialHall who have all contributedresources to save this treasure– a true example of a public-private partnership.

I am honored to play a smallrole as part of CMHS and I

encourage anyone who hasnever visited Memorial Hall orwho has not been there in awhile to add it to your “to-do”list yet this year.

Speaking of which, one easyway you can experience allthat Memorial Hall as to offeris to join us for one (or all) ofour Signature Series EventsNov. 14, Jan. 30 and April 24.Memorial Hall Signature Se-ries Season II features themusic of three great artists,food from local venues, and anextensive drink list; all in-cluded in the price of the ticketand all in one great landmark.April’s event even featuresAnderson Township’s own DanVarner Band.

For more information onMemorial Hall or the Signa-ture Series, go to www.cincin-natimemorialhall.com or call381.0348. See you there!

Sept. 17 questionHas the National Football

League fairly and properly han-dled the Ray Rice domesticabuse/violence case? Whatcould or should the league dodifferently?

“Fairly, yes. Properly, no. Iam sick and tired of readingabout these prima donna ath-letes acting like the thugs andcriminals a lot of themare...and getting away with itmost of the time. All of thesebig-timesportsathletes (everysport),whether theywant tobeor not, are rolemodels formil-lions of youth. On that factalone, they need to be held to ahigher standard of moralitythan the rest of us. It is a rareprivilege to be good enough toplay in the big leagues and ifyou happen to be that talentedor lucky, you need to be held toa one-and-done moralityclause.Muckup once andyourare out for life. Seems harsh,but how many youth see theseguys do these kinds of stupidand wrong beatings/murders/rapes/gun violations/drug vio-lations etc. and then the guy isback playing later this year ornext, so it must be OK for ouryouth to do that too?”

“Once the NFL had all thefacts in the Ray Rice spousalabuse case they stiffened hispenalty. His Ravens team andthe NFL have suspended himindefinitely.HoweverRaywaspaid huge front end bonusesthat should be recouped. It ap-pears theNFLhasanepidemicof these abuses both spousaland child.

This has been a busyweek. I was a featuredpresenter at MotherEarth News Fair in Penn-sylvania and my talk wason Bible herbs and foodswith anti-aging qualities.

One ofmy topicswas breadsincewheat wasone of thefirst, if notthe first,crop plant-ed backthen. Ayoungwoman

came up to me afterwardand asked if I ever madechallah, the honey eggbread. Yes, I told her, Ihave. “Would you sendmeyour recipe?” she asked.Yes, I told her, I would.

As I write this, we’re aweekawayfromRoshHa-shanah, the Jewish NewYear, of which challah isan important food.Wejustgot a quart of honey fromour beekeeper, so todayI’m sharing a really goodrecipe for challah. It’sadapted from Joan Na-than’s, an expert on Jew-ish cuisine.

ChallahGrandson, Jack, loves

this sweeter type eggbread. A wonderful giftfrom the kitchen, as well.

This makes 2 loaves.Some people like to sprin-kle it with poppy or sesa-me seeds before baking.

2-1/2 cups warm water,110-115 degrees

1 tablespoon active dryyeast (not rapid rise)

1/2 cup honey1/4 cup Canola oil3 largeeggs, roomtem-

perature1 tablespoon salt8 cups unbleached all

purpose flour - I usedKing Arthur brand

Eggwash - 1 or 2 wholeeggs, beatenuntil blended

Sprinkle yeast overwarm water. On lowspeed, stir in honey, oil,eggs and salt until verywell blended.

Add flour, one cup at atime, beating after eachaddition.Youmaywinduphaving to beat by hand,depending upon the sizeof thebowl, ifyou’reusing

ahandor standmixer, etc.Removedough to light-

ly floured surface. Doughwill be sticky. Knead untilsmooth and elastic (like ababy’s bottom, my friendCarol says) and no longersticky, adding flour a bitat a time as needed. Becareful here - don’t addtoo much or bread will bedry. Cover with dampclean cloth and let rise un-til doubled in bulk - up to1-1/2 hours or so.

Punch dough down andagain place on lightlyfloured surface. Divide inhalf and knead each halffor a few more minutes,addingmore flour if need-ed. Again, be careful here- add just enough flour tokeep it from being sticky.

Divide each half intothirds and roll into ropesabout 1-1/2” wide. Pinchtop ends of each 3 ropestogether. Then, startingfrom the middle, startbraiding, again pinchingends after braiding.Leave as is or curve braidinto a circle and pinchends together very well. Ipinch and tuck ends un-der.

Spray 2 baking sheetsor use parchment paper.Put braids on. Brush witheggwash.Coverwith tow-el and let rise until dou-bled, about an hour. Pre-heat oven to 375.

Ifyouwanta lacquered

finish, brush gently againwith egg wash. Bake for30-40 minutes. If you in-sert thermometer intocenter on bottom, breadwill register 190 degreeswhen done. Or tap it onbottom - it should soundhollow.

Even easier: Thaw fro-zen bread dough, then di-vide in thirds, make 3ropes and follow instruc-tions on label for rising,etc.Thisbreadwon’t beassweet as homemade chal-lah, but it’s still good.

Hot mulled ciderI can’t believe the

weather has turned coolenough to enjoy a mug ofhot mulled cider. When

the kids were little, wemade cider from our or-chard apples. Wonderfulmemories of chilly au-tumn evenings, sitting bythe woodstove, sippingmulled cider. A healthysplash of apple brandy orspiced rum added bringsback pretty good memo-ries, too!

Bring ingredients to agentle boil, then lower to asimmer and cook, cov-ered, about 10 minutes orso.Strain, addbrandy, andenjoy.

This isthe time ofyear whenmany con-sumershire homeimprove-ment con-tractors tofix upitemsaround

their house. Before youhire a contractor, youshould know there aresome who just take yourmoney and run.

I received a letterfrom a woman who hireda company to clean herroof and install new win-dows. She paid a $2,000deposit before any workwas done and, unfortu-

nately, no work was everdone. Now the firm,which she says, neverordered the windows,wants to charge her arestocking fee after shecomplained and said shewants her money back.

Ohio Attorney GeneralMike DeWine says hisoffice has received morethan 60 complaints about

home improvement con-tractors since June. Mostof his complaints involveasphalt, concrete or pav-ing work. The averageamount of money dis-puted is more than$3,000.

Most of those com-plaints involved shoddyresurfacing of the drive-way, rough spots orcracks in the concrete,improper drainage,driveways not level, andineffective and incom-plete sealing.

To protect yourselfalways check out a con-tractor with the BetterBusiness Bureau to makesure they have a goodrecord and have been inbusiness for a while. Ifthey’re a member of theBBB so much the betterbecause then the bureaucan mediate any prob-

lems you may encounterwith the company.

Make sure you get acopy of the company’sworkers compensationand liability insurancepolicies. If the firmdoesn’t have both policiesto give you, go to anotherfirm.

Avoid paying a lot ofmoney upfront so thecontractor has an in-centive to return and dothe work. I suggest fol-lowing the CincinnatiHome Remodeling Ordi-nance and limiting yourdown payment to nomore than 10 percent ofthe cost of the job, exceptfor special order items.Never pay more than theamount of work that’sbeen satisfactorily com-pleted.

Make sure the con-tract you receive con-

tains the company’sname, address and phonenumber. It should alsostate the start and com-pletion dates of the job.

Under the law youhave three days to cancela door-to-door sale. InOhio, the company mustalso give you a writtenright-to-cancel form tomail back. If you don’treceive such a cancella-tion form don’t do busi-ness with the company.Finally, don’t let the com-pany begin any workuntil three days havepassed.

Discussing aging is-sues, such as living ar-rangements, finances,dating, end-of-life deci-sions and driving, earlyand often can save fam-ilies years of heartache,tension and even legalbattles. Yet, research in-dicates that about two-thirds of American fam-ilies put off these conver-sations, either becausethey are uncomfortablewith the topics or theyjust don’t know where tostart.

Statistics show that 34percent of adults sur-veyed are conversation

avoiders. That is, theyhaven’t talked about anyimportant end-of-life is-sues with their parents orchildren, or they havetalked about just one is-sue.

Tohelp, the localHomeInstead Senior Care of-fice is sponsoring the “40-70 Rule” program, whichincludes an Action Planfor Successful Aging andother resources to helpease these conversationsbetween adult childrenand their parents.

The idea behind the“40-70 Rule” is that by thetime adult children are

age 40 and their parentsare age 70, they shouldhave these critical con-versations that will im-pact the parents’ future.

“Unfortunately, it is of-ten not until a crisis hap-pens that families consid-er these important dis-cussions,” said BruceHobbs, owner of theHome Instead SeniorCare office serving Ham-ilton County.

“Although the pros-pect of addressing sensi-tive topics canoftenbe in-timidating, it’s critical forthese conversations tohappen before it’s too

late.”According to recently

conducted research, 70percent of family conver-sations about aging issuesdon’t occur until they areprompted by a health cri-sis or other emergency.

This can increase thelikelihood of family dis-putes.

Hobbs said that hehopes this program canchange that for area fam-ilies.

“Quite often, when itcomes to certain topics,there is a noticeable gapbetween thewishes of thesenior parents and their

children,” he said. “Wewant to help families es-tablish plans in advanceso that a parent’s ex-pressed wishes are met.”
