Romer said it was achallenge to keep every-thing to scale on such alarge canvas, but theycreated 4-foot grids anddrew everything by handbefore adding paint.

Hatchett worked on theconcept for about amonthbeforemeeting the teamof student artists, and saidshe was excited to work

with ArtWorks again.“It’s really inspiring…

to beworkingwith theseyoung people who arenaturally curious,” shesaid. “Towork on some-thing that changes theenvironment for the pub-lic is really rewarding.”

Themural should befinished byNovember,and Cline said they stillneed to raise about $2,500.So far, close to $32,000was raised through pri-vate donations from theowners of the dogs on thewall or those who supportArtWorks and public art,she said.

The dog field is amem-bers-only area, but themural can be seen fromother areas of the park,6701Kellogg Ave., and theParkDistrict will clearsome trees to improvevisibility for the public.

ANDERSON TWP. —Should there be more in-dustry ormore residentialhousing options? How cancompeting uses coexistwithout impacting the nat-ural environment? Willbetter infrastructurebring more development?

These are some of thequestions a group of An-derson Township resi-dents, business owners,public officials and a con-sulting firm are trying toanswer as they work to-ward an updated plan forthe Ancor area.

The original plan wasadopted in 1994, and thetownship is re-examiningfuture land use for the An-cor area – amixof residen-tial, recreational and in-dustrial uses near RoundBottom, Broadwell andMt. Carmel roads.

An open house to dis-cuss planning for the up-dated Ancor area planwasconducted Sept. 25.

During the open house,Gary Meisner, a consult-antworkingontheplanup-date, said, “This is one ofthe few large tracts of landthat’s relatively undevel-oped in Hamilton Countyand Anderson Township.

“The economics of theland is changing becauseof infrastructure and po-tential access improve-ments ... and that maychange what Ancor lookslike.”

The steering commit-tee has identified severaloptionsfor thearea includ-ing creating land usezones around key areas.Possibilities include ex-panded commercial/retailareas alongRoundBottomRoad, other industrialuses near the railroadtracks on Broadwell Roadand high-density housingon the hillsides ofMt. Car-mel Road.

Other ideas includecreating a scenic bywayalongRoundBottomRoad,which runs along theLittleMiami River, and preserv-ing abundant green spaceand recreational uses inAncor.

Right now, Ancor lackssome utilities and easy ac-cess to certain areas, butplans for improvementscould accelerate interestinmore development, saidTom Caruso, the town-ship’s Trails Coordinatorwho was representing theTransportation AdvisoryCommittee.

The Metropolitan Sew-er District will bring newsewer lines through the

area in the next few years,and the Eastern Corridorroad plans could relocatestate Route 32 and includea potential station for lightpassenger rail. The town-ship is also consideringbuilding a connector roadbetween Broadwell Roadand state Route 32.

All these factors couldsignificantly spur morecommercial, industrial orhousing developments inAncor, Meisner said.

Township residentJohn Schreiber said hefrequently uses the riverfor recreation and wouldlike to see some public ac-cess points.

He also said it’s impor-tant to him that sensibledevelopment occurs in thearea with minimal impacton the Little Miami River.

Peggy Johnston, wholives on Broadwell Roadand is part of the steeringteam, said she’d con-cerned about toomuch de-velopment on the hillsidesand how that could affectother property owners inthe Ancor area.

Meisner said they’restill in the early stages ofthe update and will incor-porate public commentsinto the plan as they moveahead.

ANDERSON TWP. — It’staking a little longer thanexpected for American Le-gion Post 318 to move intoits new home.

Last year, the Postbought the former BeaconFoodsmarket, 6660CloughPike, and expected to beopen this summer.

Post Commander Jim-my Bussey said theyshould receive permitsfrom Hamilton County inthe coming weeks, andthen construction can be-gin. He said they plan toopen this fall.

“It’s been a longprocess… and it will be nice tohave a home again,” hesaid. “It’s been hard onmembership, but we’restill growing.”

The Post sold its formerfacility and property onForest Road in 2010, and

members have been meet-ing in various locationsaround the township.

Bussey said the interiorof the former food marketwill be remodeled to in-clude a large hall that canbe used by both Post 318members and the commu-nity. The new building willalso have a full-servicekitchen and lounge roomwith a bar.

The floor also needs tobe replaced and the park-ing area will be resurfacedbefore opening, he said.

Once Post 318 is ready,Bussey said the public willbe invited in for a grandopening. He said the Postwould like the new facilityto host Bingo nights, fishfries or other similarevents.

Amarketing committeeis also working on a plan sothey can rent the buildingto thecommunity, andonceit’s open, Bussey said the

Post will be a full-servicerental facility for recep-tions, parties, meetings orother events.

“Our mission is to sup-port veterans, our commu-nity, the state and ourcountry,” he said. “Wewant to make sure we cansupport the building andoperate our programs.”

Post 318 gives scholar-ships to local high schoolstudents, brings comfortitems to those at the Veter-ans Affairs hospital, andconducts an annual recog-nition award ceremony forlocal educators, law en-forcement officers, fire-fighters and students.

The Post was located attheForestRoad facility formore than 50 years, butthere were a number of is-sues with the building, in-cluding water in the base-ment and the need for sig-nificant plumbing andelectric updates.

Anderson Townshipplans to replace an agingculvert on High MeadowsDrive.

The trustees recentlyapproved an $86,926 con-tract for thework plus a10percent contingency.

Public Works DirectorRichard Shelley said theyreceived an $89,000 grant

last year that should coverall of the constructioncosts.

Anderson Township isresponsible for designcosts and overruns abovethe grant amount.

“(If it’s not fixed) theroad will collapse and theedges have started tocrumble,” he said.

“I’d be surprised if itsurvives the winter.”

Trustee Kevin O’Brien

said that’s been a problemarea for the township for awhile, and he asked ifhomeowners would be im-pacted by the project.

Shelley said construc-tion is expected to affect acouple homes near thearea on High MeadowsDrive – off Birney Lane,south of Salem Road – butit would be more of an is-sue if the culvert doesn’tget fixed.

NEWTOWN — The flood-ing has continued foryears, but Newtown offi-cials are hoping preventa-tive measures will staveoff the rising water until apermanent solution isfound.

Residents on Edith, Jef-ferson and Pine streetshave been subject to flood-ing fromanearby creek af-ter heavy rainfall for sev-eral years. Newtown Vil-lageCouncil recentlyvotedto approve spending nomore than $25,000 of tax-payers’ money to fix thedrainage along Edith, Jef-ferson and Pine streets.

Workers recently ran acamera through the drain-age system in the area anddiscovered several sec-tions clogged with debris.

The village plans to ad-dress the problem bydredging out the creek andputting in debris collectionbaskets that are expectedto prevent debris fromclogging drains along thecreek.

“This is to try to mini-mize any flooding duringthe grant process,” saidmaintenance supervisorRon Dickerson.

Councilman CharlesShort said the dredging ofthe creek will begin short-ly, but the remainder of theproject, which includes im-

proving new pipingthrough the drainage sys-tem, will have to wait asNewtown applies forgrants to offset the cost ofthe entire project.

Short said the grant ap-plication will be sent out inthe next fewdays, and a de-cision is expected in De-cember. He said if ap-proved, the village will re-ceive the funds by nextsummer, at which point theremainder of the projectwould get under way.

Dickerson said themaintenance departmentchecks the creek beforeand after each rain, as wellas three times each weekregardless of if it rains ornot.

Newtown starts floodrepairs in a creek

Newtown is hoping repairs to a nearby creek will prevent the flooding of properties, suchas this, along Edith, Jefferson and Pine streets. The village will dredging the creek andinstalling debris collectors in the coming week. PROVIDED

MADISONVILLE — Eighth-graderShawn Brumfield isn’t only eating hisvegetables. He’s enjoying them.

“I like the cabbage,” he said.Brumfield and his classmates at John

P. Parker School are harvesting cropsfrom a garden at the school.

Not only are they getting fresh pro-duce, but they are actively involved inthe process.

“It’s like an outdoor classroom,” saidLori Todd, a seventh- and eighth-gradescience teacher at the school.

The garden was built in 2010 with thehelp of a garden coordinator from Cin-cinnati. This is the second year the stu-dents have harvested the garden, whichincludes vegetables ranging from toma-toes to cantaloupes.

“It was fun that I got to get my handsdirty,” said eighth-grader De’quan Free-man, who is a resident of Madisonville.

Todd, of Anderson Township, said thisisn’t the students’ first exposure to gar-dening, but it has the addedbenefit of be-ing outdoors.

Shesaid indoorplantershadprevious-ly been attended by a number of the stu-dent. However, the project gained mo-

mentumafter theoutdoorgardenwassetup.

“A lot of inner city kids don’t get achance to work outside at their home,”said Todd.

Todd said the garden not only pro-vides an educational experience, but it’ssomething the students enjoy participat-ing in.

“It absolutely motivated them,” she

said. “It gave them a new appreciation ofwhat you can do with science.”

“I liked the process,” said Brumfield,who resides in downtown Cincinnati. “Ijust liked to see how (the garden) devel-oped.”

Todd said the garden, which is locatedbehind the school, will continue. She saidshe is already looking forward to plan-ning next year’s crops.

NEWTOWN — Miami ValleyChristian Academy is looking tothe future with its new capitalcampaign.

The school has recently beguna campaign to assist in meetingthe goals laid out by its five-yearstrategic plan.

Shawn Baker, head of school,said Miami Valley began theprocess 18 months ago by meet-ingwith parents of students frompre-kindergarten to high schoolage to determine what they seethe school being in five years.

“We took their feedback andstaff feedback and made a five-year strategic plan,” he said.

While the capital campaignjust began, Baker said the schoolhas already made progress in its

strategic plan.Miami Valley

has expanded itsAdvanced Place-ment courses, in-creased the tech-nology for the en-tire school and isupgrading its ex-isting athletic fa-

cilities.For Miami Valley Christian

Academy this is the third capitalcampaign, with the last one in2005 funding themiddle and highschool building.

Thefive-yearplancalls forex-panding technology initiativesthroughout theschool; increasingAdvanced Placement and honorsofferings; a newathletic complexfor baseball, football and track; anew fine arts facility and moreclass offerings for fine arts.

The school is also working toincrease its “Bible-based” char-acter development program thatwould be woven into all curricu-lum.

Lori Asmus, development di-rector, said the character devel-opment program is “really an in-vestment” in the students’ futureand the community as a whole.Part of the programwill increasecommunity service beyond theonce a year commitment stu-dents make now to an ongoingcommitment.

“By the time they graduatefrom Miami Valley ChristianAcademy, community servicewill be a part of their DNA,” Bak-er said.

Asmus said as part of the cap-ital campaign, the school will behosting “Rise and Shine withMVCA” on every third Tuesday

of the month. She said communi-ty members can tour the school,learn about school programs andenjoy breakfast.

ANDERSONTWP.—The ForestHills Local School District isgearing up for a significantchange in curriculum.

As part of state-mandatedchanges in content areas rangingfromEnglishandmathematics tosocial studiesandscience,ForestHills, like other districts in thestate, is laying the groundworkfor requiredchangesby the2014-2015 school year.

“Everything is changing (in)all areasatone time,” saidConnieLippowitsch, director of instruc-tional services for the district.

Lippowitsch discussed these“Common Core and ContentStandards” revisions during theSept. 17 school board meeting.

Amajor focus of this new cur-riculum will be more effectivelypreparing students for college.

During the 2012-2013 schoolyear, teachers will begin the ini-tial stages of preparation andcontent review in their specificsubject areas.

By the 2013-2014 school year,the new curriculumwill be intro-duced in the classroom settingwith full implementation the fol-lowing school year.

“It’s a complete revamp of allof the curriculum,” said Superin-tendent Dallas Jackson. “That iswhy we are working so hard (onthis).”

To help prepare for thesechanges the district created anew district programs adminis-trator position that was filled byformer Anderson High Schoolprincipal Diana Carter.

Among other things, this posi-tionwill involve assisting staff inthe transition to the new curricu-lum.

Additionally, thestate is revis-ing how student progress is as-sessed. Instead of rankings suchas “excellent” or “effective,”school districtswill receive a let-ter grade on the state reportcard.

To prepare for this changeForest Hills will begin workingwith a consortium called thePartnership for Assessment ofReadiness for College and Ca-reers.

According to the Partnershipfor Assessment website, 23states are part of this consortiumwhich will work toward develop-ing “acommonset ofK-12assess-ments in English and math.”

MT. WASHINGTON — DennyMurphy and his McNicholasHighSchoolvolleyball teamdon’ttalk about the Rockets’ No. 4ranking in the state volleyballpoll.

Instead, the Rockets let theirplay do the talking.

With a 3-0 win over DaytonCarroll Sept. 27, McNick won its10th match in a row and is now

rankedNo. 2 in theEnquirer’sDi-vision II coaches poll — trailingonly Indian Hill.

And while coaches aroundOhio are well aware of McNick’son-court accomplishments, Mur-phy insists his team is only con-cerned with the next team on theschedule.

“Our goal right now is to pro-tect our record,” Murphy said.“So if we’re 13-1, then the nextgamewewant to get to 14-1. We’llworry about the (tournament)when we get to that point.”

McNick’s lone loss cameat thehands of St. Ursula. The defeathad a lasting effect on the team,according to Murphy.

“It changed the way we prac-

ticed. Everythinggot better afterthat because we started pushingthemmuchharderand theystart-ed responding by playing much

better,” he said.Offensively, McNick’s attack

has been spearheaded by the ef-forts of seniors SarahBouley andBrooke Logan. The two playerslead the team in kills.

Seniors Katie Rogers andPaigeNodayhavealsobeena fac-tor around the net, while juniorHannah Taylor is making a bigimpact during her first varsityseason.

“(Hannah’s) our best athlete.Shehitsheavyandhasareachno-

body else on our team has. Shescores a lot and blocks,” Murphysaid.

The Rockets’ offensive depthhas proven to be a key strengthfor the team because the squadhasn’t needed to rely on one ortwo people to carry the load.

And those attackers are bene-fiting from having four-yearstarter Kayla Fritz set up theirkills shots.

Having an experienced setteris invaluable, according to Mur-phy.

“We have Kayla - she’s four-year starter - and Allie (Kam-phaus), another senior who setsfor us - ... they run the offense,”he said. “Experience is huge.”

ANDERSON TWP. — Lauren Lampingpicked a great way to wrap up her varsi-ty career.

The senior took medalist honors dur-ing McNicholas’ 198-214-224 Queen ofthe Hill victory over Turpin and An-derson at Coldstream Country Club Sept.26.

For Lamping, the victory had signifi-cant meaning because two days earlier,the Lady Rockets just missed qualifyingfor districts by placing fifth. The topfour teams from the sectional advanced.

“(The win) is pretty big,” Lampingsaid. “I don’t think we played our bestgame at sectionals, and we played prettygood today. It’s a good feeling.”

Lamping shot 6-over-par 42 to leadMcNick, while teammates Ellie Tierneyand Maggie Danker each shot 51.

Danker’s total was six strokes off her

average, according to GGCLsports.comMcNick head coach Willy Corbett said

the first-year golfer has been one of thesquad’s most improved players.

“She’s got a great stroke and hits theball hard and she’s learning to overcomethe tough holes and she’s getting better

and better,” he said.The victory cast a vindicating feeling

around the McNick squad once thescores were calculated.

A publication of

To begin, I will fully disclosethat I am a Turpin soccer alumand that is wheremy loyaltieslie. But something on theCincin-nati Enquirerwebsite caughtmyeye and inspiredme to do someresearch.

Last Thursday the Turpin andAnderson boy’s soccer teamsmet on the field in the annualrivalry game and pictures of thegamewere highlighted on theEnquirer’swebsite.

Turpin came awaywith a 3-0win and I decided to look upprevious results between thetwo schools. I was unable to findany evidence of the last timeAnderson defeated Turpin inboy’s soccer.

The FAVCwebsite (the previ-ous athletic conference of Tur-pin and Anderson) has archived

the past resultsof the gamesdating back to2004. No An-derson wins tobe found sincethen.

I then posteda question onthe Turpin soc-cer alumniFacebook pageasking for any-

one who knew the last time An-derson defeated Turpin. Theunofficial answer that wasbrought forward from the groupwas the year 1989.

If this year is accurate thenthat means that Turpin has goneunbeaten against their fiercerivals for 23 straight years.

That dates back to the same

year that Ronald Reagan handedthe presidency off to GeorgeH.W. Bush. That was the same yearthat the Bengals played in SuperBowl XXIII. Personally, I wasonly 1year old at that time.

This incredible streak seems

so shocking based on the factthat Turpin and Anderson areextremely competitive in everyother sport. The rivalry seems togrow every year and recentlyhas received a lot of publicity inthe city.

However this boys soccerunbeaten streak seems to getovershadowed by some of theother sports. It is incredible tothink of the hundreds of formerTurpin soccer players who havecontributed to this massiverecord.

It also says a lot about theconsistently high level of excel-lence of the Turpin boy’s soccerprogram. Since I was unable toofficially confirm the year thatwe believe was the last yearAnderson won (1989) I wouldencourage any readers who haveany physical evidence of the lastAnderson win over Turpin tosubmit that to the Forest HillsJournal letter to the editors.

Catholic dilemma aproblem for decades

I understand Terry MichaelMerrill’s dilemma regarding vot-ing and being faithful to theCatholic Christian positions(Catholics have a dilemma onNov. 6).

He offers two conflicts re-gardingsexualitybetween theof-ficial positions of the CatholicChurch and President Obama.However, the dilemma is deeperthan that.

Mr. Ryan’s budget proposal,which is being used by Mr. Rom-ney as a template, has beennamed immoral by the U.S.Catholic bishops. The rationale is

that Mr. Ryan’s budget does notprovide for those who cannotfully provide for themselves.

Both political party platformsconcur with Catholic Churchteaching and both disagree withit.

While the Democrats do notprotect the unborn they do pro-vide for children after birth.

On the other hand, the Repub-licans protect the unborn but donot provide for children afterbirth.

Thatdilemmahasbeenaprob-lem for decades.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

While our region has a sig-nificant number of Fortune 500companies that do businessinternationally, we have one ofthe lowest percentages of for-eign-born residents and resi-dents who speak a foreignlanguage.

When Chiquita Brands citedthe lack of a bilingual work-force able to work easily withChiquita’s substantial opera-tions in Latin America, werealized we needed to get busyand take advantage of theresources that are alreadyhere.

The Hispanic ChamberCincinnati USA recently an-nounced The Cincy BilingualAdvantage, a new economicimpact project designed tohelp companies and civic or-ganizations compete in theglobal marketplace by using aweb-based system to accessbilingual resources. The intent

is for localcompaniesand organiza-tions to beable to accessbilingual localtalent to sup-port business,academic orhumanitarianefforts.

Our goal isto have 1,500

bilingual residents in the data-base in the first year of theproject. All bilingual residentsthroughout the region withknowledge of any foreign lan-guage are being asked to entertheir information into the web-site at www.cincybilin gualta-lent.com.

The Hispanic Chamberpartnered with the IT depart-ment of Cincinnati State Tech-nical and Community Collegeto create a website with a

searchable database to provideresources and contact informa-tion to Cincinnati companies,educational institutions andnot-for-profit organizations,allowing their needs to be metby local talent. In order tomake the search process sim-ple, the information is beingstored in four groups or cate-gories 1) high school students2) college students, 3) profes-sionals and 4) residents.

During the coming months,we are encouraging all bi-lingual members of the com-munity to enter their data intothis free platform. The newwebsite www.cincybilingualta-lent. com will be fully opera-tional for those seeking bi-lingual resources by Feb. 1,2013.

Alfonso Cornejo is president of theHispanic Chamber CincinnatiUSA.

Last week’s questionDo you think the Federal Re-

serve’sdecision tobuy$40billiona month in mortgage-backed se-curities to cut borrowing costsfor home buyers and other bor-rowers, andpledgetokeepshort-term rates near zero until at leastmid-2015 will help the economy?Why or why not?

“The Fed's decisions to buymortgaged-backed securitiesand to keep interest rates low forat least another three years willprovideminimal help to the econ-omy in the short run and will addgreatly to our nation's financialwoes in the long run.

“With respect to the first pol-icy, do people realize that the Fedis in effect printingmoney to buythose mortgages? This will justadd to the already massive andunprecedented increase in thesupply of money, with no com-mensurate increase in the needfor it.

“In the past, in other placesand at other times, this practicehas eventually led to inflation –sometimes evenhyper-inflation –which can devastate the purchas-ing power of savers and inves-tors, including many retirees.

“The purchases drive theprice of mortgage securities up,which forces the rates on mort-gages down. Mortgage rates arealready at rock bottom, so how isthis going to entice more homesales?

“Keeping interest rates lowalso penalizes the saver and in-vestor while it benefits the bor-rower. So, if you have been frugaland saved your money the Fed isgoing to artificially keep interestrates – your return – low, whichbenefits the personwho has been

a spendthrift and a borrower bykeeping his interest costs low.”

T.H.

“No, I do not think the FederalReserve's decision to buy $40 bil-lion a month in mortgage-backedsecurities is a good idea. It is an-other example of government in-trusion where it has no businessinterfering.

“All of us know of friends andneighbors who have lost theirhomes because they could notpay their mortgages. The solu-tion isnot tohave thegovernmentstep in and rescue the lenders ofmortgages to people who cannotafford them.

“The solution is to create amore friendly climate for busi-nesses by eliminating many ofthe regulations imposed by thegovernment on businesses,which have discouraged the hir-ing of US workers causing mas-sive unemployment.”

NEXT QUESTIONWhat do you think about theagreement reached betweenthe University of Cincinnati andformer President Greg Williamswhich pays Williams more than$1.3 million, including a$255,000 law school professorsalary, even though he will notteach, and more than $500,000in consulting fees, whether hedoes the work or not?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via e-mail. Send youranswers [email protected] withChatroom in the subject line.

Looking to make use of yardtrimmings, fruit and vegetablescraps? Why not start a com-post pile? Compost can be usedas both a mulch and a soilamendment to control weeds,maintain soil temperatures,reduce soil erosion, add micro-nutrients and beautify yourplanting area.

Composting may seem likea large task, but compost pilesrequire only a minimal amountof maintenance to produce auseable product.

First, pick a good location.The site should have plenty ofroom but not interfere withyour family’s lawn and gardenactivities. The pile should beexposed to rain but also havegood drainage. Keep the pile asafe distance away from water-ways (such as creekbeds,streams or rivers) and wood(including wooded buildingsand trees).

Next add yard trimmingsand food scraps to your pile. Incomposting, it is important tokeep a carbon-to-nitrogen ratioof three to one. Carbon comesfrom brownmaterials likeleaves, straw, sawdust or pa-per. Nitrogen comes from

green materi-al like grassclippings andfood scraps.

The follow-ing items canbe compostedin your back-yard:

» Fruit andvegetablescraps

» Leaves,plants and prunings

» Coffee grounds» Tea bags»Grass clippings» Flowers» Pine needles»Wood chips» Shredded newspaper»Wood ash» Straw» Sawdust» Cornstalks» Alfalfa hay» Brush and shrub trim-

mingsThe following items cannot

be composted in your back-yard:

» Oils/fats/grease» Bones»Meat»Weed seeds

» Salad dressing»Diseased plants or weeds» Inorganic material (i.e.,

plastic)» Butter or dairy products» Cat or dog manureAfter five or six weeks,

your pile will be ready to turn.Use a shovel or other tool torotate the pile. Compost will beready to use when it is darkbrown, crumbly and earthy-smelling.

Many people have seen theLiberty Mutual Insurance “Re-sponsibility” television commer-cials featuring individuals doinggood deeds for others after wit-nessing a stranger doing some-thing helpful for someone else.

Cancer Support Community(formerly The Wellness Commu-nity) saw it happen in real lifewhen 35 local LibertyMutual em-ployees from the Fairfield officeleft their ownworkat theoffice toeach spend five hours volunteer-ing at the non-profit cancer sup-port organization, helping withessential landscaping and interi-or and exterior cleaning andmaintenance chores.

The two-day service projectwas part of a global effort called“Serve with Liberty” organizedbythe insurancecompanytocele-brate its100thanniversary.Liber-ty Mutual employees around theworld were encouraged to partic-ipate in the project andpermittedto take time off on either June 21or 22 to serve at a nonprofit or-ganization.

Worldwide, “Servewith Liber-ty” resulted in 25,000people from19 countries providing 106,000hours of service to 760 differentcharities.

In Greater Cincinnati, approx-imately 700 Liberty Mutual em-ployees took part, choosing fromservice projects at nearly 50 pre-approved nonprofit organiza-tions.

At Cancer Support Communi-ty, 20 Liberty Mutual employeesworked on landscaping andgrounds keeping projects in thesweltering heat for five hoursJune 21and then15more employ-eesspent fivehoursJune22doinga “deep clean” inside.

According to CSC’s director ofdevelopment Betty Cookendor-fer, the help was much neededand very appreciated.

“We have a beautiful facilityhere inBlueAshwhichprovidesacomfortable, relaxing, home-likeenvironment where people withcancer and their loved ones cancome for support groups, educa-tional programs, and healthy lifestyle classes likeTaiChi andyogathat help relieve the stress thatfighting cancer can present,”Cookendorfer said. “But it can bea lot to maintain for a non-profitwith a very small staff, so havingso many committed volunteersfrom Liberty Mutual willing toprovide so many hours of hardwork is a huge help for us.”

One of these days I’mgoing to write a cookbookincluding “Hall of Fame”recipes frommy column.When I think of all therecipes shared across ourcommunity of readers andthe interest generated bythem, I know that foodshared with family andfriends is not only nurtur-ing but makes memoriesand traditions. That’s whyevery year I get requests

for NellWilson’spickledpeppers.Nell, aMasonreader, isthe motherof our gar-den guru,Ron Wilson,and herpickled

peppers are the best. I’veadapted the recipe overthe years, but the originalpremise comes from Nell.Peppers are in season soby making your own, youare saving lots of moneyplus you know exactlywhat’s in them.

Nell Wilson’sfamous hot pickledpeppers

I make this with a mix-ture of mostly hot pep-pers. I usually don’t add 2cups sugar; if I use any atall, I’ll start out with half acup, taste the brine and gofrom there. You’ll getenough brine for 5-6 pintsor about 3 quarts peppers.

Peppers:

2 pounds or so, prepared asdirected below

Brine:Bring to a boil, then

lower to a simmer for 5minutes.

6 cups clear or cider vinegar,5 percent acidity

2 cups water

Optional ingredients:

Sugar to taste: up to 2 cupsSalt: up to 2 tablespoons, ifyou want

1 garlic clove for each jar1 bay leaf for each jar1 grape leaf for each jar (thissupposed tomake themextra crunchy)

Bring brine to a boil.

Let simmer 5 minutes orso.

Prepare peppers:Use rubber gloves.Leave peppers whole

with a slit down the centerif you like, or slice. Placepeppers in hot jars, pack-ing tightly. Pour simmer-ing brine over, coveringpeppers. Add optionalingredients. Wipe rimswith clean wet cloth. Putlids and seals on. Profes-sionally, I’ll tell you toprocess pints 10 minutesor quarts 15 minutes in aboiling water bath aftersealing. That is the recom-mended safe method forcanning. (Check out myblog for directions.) I don’t

process mine, but I steril-ize the jars and lids, andkeep them in boiling wateruntil they’re filled. I havenever had a problem, butagain, the recommendedway to preserve these is ina boiling water bath. Jarswill seal on their own –you’ll hear little “pings” asthe seal completes. Anythat don’t seal, just put inrefrigerator. Chill in re-frigerator before serving.

Tip from Rita’s kitchen• The membrane that

the seeds are attached tois the hottest part of thepepper.

• The lids are a two-parter: a flat seal and aring. The rings are reus-

able, but the seals are not.• See Rita make these:

video for pickling pepperson www.abouteating.com.

• Peppers are good foryour eyes and heart,among other things.

Spicy bistro oystercrackers for soups

With autumn comeschilly days and the aromaof a pot of soup cooking isso comforting. Take soupto a whole new level withthese tasty crackers. I caneat these as a snack! Youcan add more garlic pow-der, oregano and chilipowder. Crush these for anunusual topping for macand cheese, etc.

1 24 oz. box oyster crackers¾ cup canola or olive oil1 envelope Taco seasoning½ teaspoon each garlic

powder, Italian seasoningor oregano, chili powder

Preheat oven to 350.Put crackers in big bowl.Whisk oil and seasoningstogether. Taste and addmore seasoning if you like.Sometimes I’ll add moregarlic powder. Pour overcrackers and toss to mixwell. Pour onto cookiesheets in single layers.Bake 15-20 minutes, stir-ring once, until goldenbrown. Cool and store,covered, at room temper-ature.

Jim Jackson, advance-ment director of The Ath-enaeum of Ohio/Mount St.Mary’s Seminary of theWest for more than sevenyears recently an-nounced he is leaving theposition to lead the ad-vancement department atSummit Country DaySchool in Hyde Park.

Jackson, 58, formerdevelopment director atXavier University, held akey leadership role dur-ing the Athenaeum’smostrecent capital campaign –Investing in Our Future…PreservingOur Legacy– which raised more than$19 million in 2010-11 inthemidst of a deepnation-wide economic recession– 21 percent above the$15.75 million goal.

“Jim has done an out-standing job as advance-ment director,” said theRev. Benedict O’Cinnsea-laigh, president/rector ofthe Athenaeum andMount St. Mary’s Semi-nary.

“Hehasbeenadedicat-ed member of our staff...(and) is well respected inhis field and very popularwith our benefactors. Wewish Jim and his wife,Mary, all the best as they

begin thisnew as-signment.May theLord watchover themalways andrewardthem fortheir ser-

vice to the Kingdom.”Jackson said thatwhile

he will greatly miss theAthenaeum, the opportu-nity at Summit CountryDay School is one thatcomplements his talentsin leading advancementefforts in academia andfulfills his desire to moveinto a more traditionalschool setting.

“God has been presentin my life and at timeswhen I wasn’t evenaware. Recently I was of-fered an opportunity toserve at an outstandingschool with a rich 120-year heritage,” Jacksonsaid.

“One of the things thatexcited me most was thatit places me in a well-rounded program of aca-demics, athletics, visualand performing arts,community service andreligious studies and hasa reputation as one of the

nation’s premier Catholicinstitutions.

“It is hard to express inwords the many things Iwill miss about the Athe-naeum,” he said. “Cer-tainly I am most gratefuland humbled to haveworked with so many tre-mendous people and lead-ers in our faith communi-ty.

“I also will miss thedaily contact with semi-narians and students whoare a constant reminderto me of God’s goodnessand of the mission in pre-paring future priests,deacons, and lay minis-ters for the Church. I cer-tainly know I have beenblessed in many ways bythe grace of the dedicatedpriests, faculty, staff andadministrative leader-ship and especially forthe professional talents,support and fellowship ofmy colleagues.

“In my position, yourely heavily on volunteerleadership and benefac-tors and I am most grate-ful to each one for theirpersonal friendship andsacrificial giving to theAthenaeum’s mission.Lastly I will always re-member the pride I felt

when walking across the76-acre campus -- truly aCincinnati landmark andliving reminder of faith inaction.”

As a member of theleadership team at Sum-mit, Mr. Jackson said helooks forward to “work-ing closely with key ad-ministrators, boardmem-bers, faculty, staff, stu-dents and all alumni andfriends and to keep chal-lenging myself to live bythe ideals expressed inthe mission statement forthe benefit of the stu-dents.”

Prior to his 13 years atXavier University, Jack-son spent 13 years with

Dayton Ohio-based VanDyne-Crotty, Inc., suppli-ers of uniforms, cleanli-ness, first aid and safetyproducts to industry. Heserved as general man-ager of Cincinnati opera-tions for the company.

Jackson, a native Cin-cinnatian, is a graduate ofMoeller High School andXavier University (Edge-cliff College) and holdsbachelor’s degrees inEnglish and history

The Athenaeum is thegraduate school of theol-ogy sponsored by the 19-county Archdiocese ofCincinnati. It serves theMidwest and beyond,with graduates in every

state and abroad. Theseminary division is thethird oldest Catholic sem-inary in theUnitedStates.The institution is com-prised of three divisions:Mount St. Mary’s Semi-nary of the West, the LayPastoral Ministry Pro-gram (LPMP) and SpecialStudies.

Summit Country DaySchool is an independent,Catholic, coeducational,college-preparatoryschool, founded in1890 bythe Sisters of NotreDamede Namur with a 24-acrecampus inHydePark; anda 16-acre Athletic Com-plex off of Interstate-71,near Oakley.

She is accused of put-ting her daughter, 2, to bedon the night of Sept. 15 andleaving their residence inthe 1400 block of HilltreeDrive in Anderson Town-ship.

Haynie’s grandmotherwas at home, but she didnot tell the elderly womanshe was leaving, authori-ties wrote in online courtrecords.

The grandmother wasin her bedroom for theevening with the doorclosed.

Once Haynie left, herdaughter woke up and, notfinding anyone, walked

The toddler crossedtwo streets and beganwalking west on North-port.

An off-duty police offi-cer spotted the child andcalled police.
