SPRINGFORWARDDaylight Saving Timestarts at 2 a.m. Sunday.Turn your clock aheadone hour.

Students rejoiced as sever-al inches of snow changedNorthern Kentucky’s

landscape, causing schools toclose for up to a full week.

So what happens now?According to the Kentucky

Department of Education ateducation.ky.gov, studentsmust be in school a minimum of1,062 hours, which equals 177six-hour days.

“In some school districts,the regular school day includesmore than six instructionalhours, and those districtschoose to use the extra timethey have ‘banked’ to offsethours missed due to inclementweather. Other districts have‘make-up’ days built into theirschool calendars in case theyare needed,” according to thesite. “Once a district hasmissed 20 days, it may requesta districtwide disaster dayfrom the Commissioner of Edu-cation.”

Another option for schoolsthat have missed 20 or moredays is a pilot program thatgives schools an online optionto make up missed days.

During the 2014-2015 schoolyear, Kentucky districts thatmissed 20 or more days wereeligible to apply for waiversthat allow the “use of virtual orother non-traditional means ofinstruction when school is can-celed because of weather or an-other emergency. In mostcases, students will participatein the snow day lessons online,”according to an Oct. 10, 2014,media release.

To receive a waiver, dis-tricts that missed 20 or moredays submitted applicationsthat described their plans forlearning while school was notin session. In the spring, thesame districts will submit doc-umentation of their participa-tion and measurements of stu-dent learning for the misseddays.

Thirteen districts receivedthe waiver.

Only one Northern Ken-tucky district, Grant County ispermitted to use virtual in-struction. Others are Boyle,Grant, Jessamine, Johnson,Lawrence, Leslie, Owsley, Pike,Taylor, Todd, Washington andWolfe counties, and Corbin In-dependent Schools.

Campbell CountyCampbell County Schools

missed eight days, and has 13

weather makeup days for theschool year.

Because of President’s Dayand winter weather, there wasno school at Campbell Countythe week of Feb. 16-20.

“So, we have five moreavailable,” SuperintendentGlen Miller said.

With eight missed days,Campbell County’s school yearwill end June 3 instead of May21.

If more than five more daysare missed, Board of Educationmembers may choose to lowerthe existing eight missed daysto five days, he said.

Campbell County has al-ready “banked” three instruc-tional days beyond state re-quirements so far, Miller said.

“We typically miss only oneor two days in March, so we donot anticipate using many moremakeup days beyond what wehave already missed,” Millersaid.

Bellevue IndependentSchools have missed four daysfor weather, and Fort ThomasIndependent Schools havemissed three days.

Fort Thomas will make upthe days at the end of the year,which will end June 1instead ofMay 27.

COLD SPRING — Mayor Nan-cy Bay says her evaluation ofpositions is complete as she fo-cuses on business retention anddevelopment plans.

Bay gave hervision for thecity after almosttwo months in of-fice at council’sFeb. 23 meeting.A previous arti-cle in The Com-munity Record-er detailed Bay’s

reasons for firing Ed Burk aspolice chief.

“Before I begin I want you toknow that I am very aware thatfor the first time in 12 yearsthere is a new mayor beforeyou,” Bay said. “That mayor isalso a woman.”

Council members ChrisAmpfer, Brenda Helton andRoger Jones are also new, shesaid.

“This all represents a signifi-cant change in administration,”Bay said. “I realize the changefor many can be challenging.

“I express my sincere grati-tude to all those who have wel-

comed and assisted us in thistransition.”

A campaign pledge to evalu-ate all positions and expenses isdone, Bay said. Replacing thecity attorney will save $20,000for the current budget year, andremoving the part-time city ad-ministrator will save $39,000for this budget year, she said.

According to Bay, she is de-veloping a new job descriptionfor a city administrator to be fo-cused on grant writing and eco-nomic development. She saidshe will submit the revised ad-ministrator position for the fis-cal year starting July 1.

Advertisements to replacethe former police chief, EdBurk, have been placed in “thenecessary newspapers andmagazines,” she said. “I alsohave encouraged our police de-partment officers to apply forthis position.”

Ways to improve the depart-ment will be reviewed with anew chief, she said.

“This would include sched-uled police department budgetreviews, stronger community-based policing, better technol-ogies and cost saving mea-

on a “smart growth plan”for the city.

“My goal is to meetwith every business own-er, and or operator to ad-dress his or her concernsand seek input on how tomake our city more busi-ness-friendly,” she said.“In concert with this planI will instruct our city ad-ministrative officer to de-velop a list of potentialproperties that will beavailable for commercialrental and development.”

Business owner feed-back will be incorporatedinto a smart growth plan,and it will serve as a refer-

ence for potential devel-opers and th city, accord-ing Bay.

The city has $3.569 mil-lion in reserves and a taxrate of $1.64 per $1,000 ofassessed property value,she said.

“This new administra-tion has plans not only tomaintain this level, butalso to improve our finan-cial picture,” Bay said

Bay said she was stillworking on getting an-swers to residents about“the SD1 situation in ourcity” regarding who is re-sponsible for what.

The city took control ofstorm sewers in 2013, butnot sanitary sewers, aspart of a settlement of alawsuit the city filedagainst SD1.

“In closing, I believethat overall state of our

city is very good,” Baysaid.

Councilman RogerJones said it looks likeBay is trying to spend con-servatively. “I’m assum-ing it’s all about saving thecity money,” Jones said.

Councilman ChrisAmpfer said it seems likeBay wants to cut backsome, and he never real-ized the city had thatmuch money in the bank.

“It was pretty generic,and she would like the cityto grow” Ampfer.

Ampfer said he didhave an opinion he wantedto share on the firings ofthe city attorney, policechief and city administra-tor. “I personally don’thave a problem with herchanging people,” he said.“I mean, it happens all thetime.”

Seth Cutter was not atthe Fiscal Court meeting,and Coleman said hedoesn’t think he would

recognize him if he was inattendance.

“It’s an amazing re-sume, “ Coleman said. “Iknow that young man’spedigree.”

Seth Cutter has his “100percent cooperation andsupport,” Coleman said.

Judge-executive StevePendery said Cutter is“richly qualified.”

“The one disagree-ment might be over howmuch to pay,” Penderysaid.

“He is being paid likeone of the predecessorswho at the time wasyounger and had a littleless impressive creden-tials, but turned out to do awonderful job,” Penderysaid.

Boone CountyIn Boone County,

schools were closed sevendays due to inclementweather. It’s undeter-mined whether the dis-trict will add more days tothe calendar.

“We don’t ‘bank’ time ordays, but after missing anumber of days, we do addinstructional time to eachschool day to allow for ex-tended instruction,” saidMike Ford, Boone Coun-ty’s director of pupil per-sonnel.

FORT THOMAS —Moyer ElementarySchool’s 1930s tan brickfront will be saved andrenovated as a newer ad-dition in back will be de-molished this summer infavor of a new building.

Fort Thomas Indepen-dent Schools unveiled atwo-year plan Feb. 25 torenovate and rebuildMoyer. The KentuckySchool Facilities Con-struction Commissionpledged to pay the bulk ofthe estimated $20 millioncost in September 2014.

School board mem-bers and staff have sincebeen weighing whether torenovate or rebuildMoyer. A partial renova-tion and rebuild is whatthey came up with.

“I think it’s the best so-lution for the site and itkeeps the old architec-ture which is what has

made Ruth Moyer what itis,” said board chairwom-an Karen Allen.

Technology includingdigital white boards,wireless Internet andcentral air and heatingwill be new, Allen said.And a new gym, cafeteriaand performance stagewill be designed similarto what is found at Wood-fill Elementary School, ,she said.

“It won’t be WoodfillNo. 2,” Allen said. “It willstill be Ruth Moyer and itwill still have that heartthat people in this com-munity are used to fromRuth Moyer.”

Fort Thomas residentHolly Collinsworth saidrenovating parts of RuthMoyer and building waswell thought out as shelooked over the plans Feb.25. It creates a 21st- cen-tury building while sav-ing the school’s look, shesaid.

Construction on a new550-student capacityMoyer is expected to be-gin this summer and taketwo years to finish, saidSuperintendent GeneKirchner. More familiesmoving into the districtincreased Moyer’s enroll-

ment from 450 in 2011 to518 in the fall of 2014.

For years, higher localproperty tax rates andprivate donations fromthe Fort Thomas Educa-tion Foundation havehelped pay for buildingprojects, including the al-most-complete High-lands High School reno-vation, Kirchner said.Highlands renovations,expected to be done bythis fall, have taken 10years, he said.

Anyone suggestingKentucky would pay al-most all $20 million of thecost of a renovation ofMoyer would have beendisbelieved more than ayear ago, he said. It wouldhave taken 10 years forthe district to fund reno-vating Moyer withoutstate assistance, Kirch-ner said.

Next year, students inupper grades at Moyerwill be in 12 temporarymobile classrooms as the1970s wing is demolishedand the 1950s section isrebuilt, he said. Studentsin preschool and K-2 inthe 1930s part of thebuilding will be moved in2016 when renovationswill begin, Kirchner said.

Silver Grove Indepen-dent School Districtcelebrated Read AcrossAmerica on Feb. 26 in

honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday. The theme of the event was

“Oh, the Places You’ll Go” inwhich whimsical Dr. Seussinspired student works filledthe entire first floor of thebuilding.

Families in attendance hadthe opportunity to participate

in a variety of interactiveactivities including: Leap intoLiteracy (games incorporat-ing literacy and gross motoractivities), a Dr. Seuss in-spired scavenger hunt, a Scho-lastics Book Fair, and a fifth-grade Presidential Timelinedisplay.

The family night broughttogether over 100 students,community members andstaff in a meaningful display

showing the importance of acommunity school connection.

The Silver Grove SchoolDistrict received a $500 grantfrom the Kentucky EducationAssociation (KEA) in honor ofRead Across America. Withthe allotted funds, the staff atSilver Grove was able to pro-vide each student in atten-dance one of Dr. Seuss’ fam-ous hardback books.

In addition to books, each

family who participated tookhome a bag filled with materi-als demonstrated in the Leapinto Literacy station to in-corporate gross motor activ-ities during homework ses-sions at home. With the help ofKEA, Silver Grove Indepen-dent School was able tostrengthen their community-school relationship and lookforward to another successfulfamily night in the spring.

When Lindsey Kearnswatched the Super Bowl half-time show on Feb. 1, there was alittle something more goingthrough her head than the spec-tacle of dancing sharks andflying stars.

“There was most definitely asense of pride as I was watch-ing, but also a sense of reliefthat everything went so welland turned out so beautifully,”says Kearns, a 30-year-old Tay-lor Mill resident and 2010 NKUgraduate.

Normally, fans are nervousduring the big game – not athalftime. Why was Lindsey onedge?

Because shewas one of twoNKU graduateswho helped cre-ate the animationfor Katy Perry’shalftime show.As part of Light-borne Communi-

cations, a video-productionservices company in Over-the-Rhine in Cincinnati, they helpeddevelop all the animated videoprojections for the nearly 13-minute show.

“I am in charge of makingsure that everything that iscreated or brought in to ourcompany – footage, graphics,

etc. – here at Lightborne isbacked up according to ourstandards,” she says.

On this project, she says she“was involved mainly in format-ting the files that the animatorswere creating to the specs thatwere needed. I was also in-volved in delivering these filesto the animators that were onlocation in both L.A. and Phoe-nix. Anything that the anima-tors needed from past projectsto help with their design I madesure they had, as well as prep-ping the hard drives taken onlocation with them, ensuringthat every piece of data was attheir disposal.”

The other NKU grad work-ing on the project was KevinGautraud, a 28-year-old design-er/animator who graduatedfrom NKU in 2011.

“Early on in the project, Ihelped in the technical 3Dlayout of the stadium and cam-era positions,” Kevin says. “Ialso helped research and build areally powerful workstation sothat we could render what wewere envisioning for the show. Ihelped texture and light thechessboard scene used during‘Dark Horse’ and created somelightning effects and variouselements used throughout.There is a lot of work that the

team did that no one will eversee because things change dur-ing rehearsals and whole sec-tions can completely change ordisappear.”

But these two were able tohelp create something seen bythe largest audience in SuperBowl history. And both creditNKU.

“I think that the graphicdesign program helped in amajor way,” says Kevin, whohas a Bachelor of Fine Arts ingraphic design. “The programtaught me that design is notprimarily concerned with aes-thetics, but clear and clevercommunication.”

MARCH 5, 2015 • CCF RECORDER • A7NEWS

I had to laugh when Bill Thomasof BBQ Review restaurant in Madi-sonville agreed to share the recipefor his iconic mac & cheese.

I heard Bill was closing his res-taurant (but keeping the railroaddining car adjacent to the proper-ty) so I gave him a call. Already Ihad several requests from readerswho were addicted to his mac &cheese and who asked me to get therecipe.

To give you a bit of history, Billand I started out our culinary ad-ventures about the same time wayback when.

Fast forwardsome 30-plus yearslater and now Billwants “to take iteasy.”

When I told himabout my readerswho can’t exist hap-pily without his mac& cheese, Bill said“I’ll share, no prob-lem, but it startswith 18 pounds mac-

aroni, 20 pounds of cheese, andmakes 120 pounds and no, I won’teven try to break it down!”

OK then. Well I fiddled with itand came up with a good recipehopefully close to Bill’s. I even fol-lowed his technique for cooking themacaroni and the cheese sauce.

I served this to my family, and Inever saw a bowl of mac & cheeseeaten so fast.

I hope you like it as much as wedo.

BBQ Review dishes out addictingmacaroni and cheese recipe

Clone of BBQ Review’s famous mac &cheese

If you want it “cheesier” add more cheese. This is morelike the old fashioned type, with a mild flavor. This recipedoubles or triples easily.

1//2 pound elbow macaroni - 2 cups dry1 stick butter - 4 oz.1/4 cup onion, diced fine 1/4 cup flourSalt and pepper to taste4 oz. regular, not low fat, Velveeta cheese, cubed4-6 oz. shredded cheddar, divided (I used a heaping cup,

probably more like 6 oz.)2 cups milk, warmed

Boil macaroni in salted water, drain, and set aside whilemaking sauce.

Over medium heat, melt butter and stir in onion. Cookuntil onion is translucent but not brown. Add flour, salt andpepper and whisk just until flour is light brown. Stir in milkand whisk until thicker and bubbly.

Remove from heat and stir in Velveeta and a little morethan half the cheddar. Stir in macaroni. The mac & cheese willbe very creamy and thickens as it sits. Sprinkle with rest ofcheddar.

Versatile cheese sauce: Sauce alone is a good all-purposecheese sauce.

Rita’s salt free Italian seasoning

Savory is herb of the year and one that’s underused. Ithas an aromatic peppery flavor, good in bean dishes (Germanscall it the bean herb) since it helps you digest beans. Whenyou’re ready to dry herbs this summer, use this recipe andyou’ll have a marvelous homemade blend.

Mix together:

3 tablespoons dried basil2 tablespoons dried oregano1 tablespoon dried marjoram1 teaspoon dried thyme1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed1 teaspoon dried savory1/2 teaspoon dried sage2 tablespoons dried parsley - optional

Why this blend is good for you:Basil is good for cardiovascular healthOregano and marjoram help keep joints healthy, and

fight colds and fluThyme is especially good for upper respiratory healthRosemary helps keep memories sharpSavory is a good salt substitute and helps dispel gasBoost your wisdom with sageParsley is good for kidney and liver health

A publication of

A8 • CAMBELL COUNTY RECORDER • MARCH 5, 2015

Last fall, I attended a meet-ing in Detroit of other charita-ble pharmacy leaders. Ilearned that with the imple-mentation of the AffordableCare Act (ACA), we are allfaced with the same issues –sustainability, declining needfor services, and newly in-sured clients who cannot af-ford their high deductibles andco-pays.

I also realized that, unlikeus, the majority of the charita-ble pharmacies are financiallysupported by a hospital systemor parent organization.

From the beginning it’s beenour responsibility to seek outevery single dollar that wehave received. As a co-founderI have often said that I will diebegging for money.

By the summer of 2014 thenumber of clients we werehelping started to decline.

Before weexpanded ourprogram toanyone withinsurance andalways mind-ful of sustain-ability, wedecided toseek inputfrom St. Eliza-beth Health-care regardingthe need for

our service going forward.Because of their past supportand the fact that 70 percent ofour clients are St. Elizabethpatients, it seemed the logicalplace to start. Their answerwas positive.

Currently we are workingwith them to find ways tostrengthen our collaboration.In addition, we partner withother providers such as Health

Point, Christ Hospital andNorthKey.

We are excited to announcethat we have opened our pro-gram to anyone with insurancewith family income at or below200 percent of the FederalPoverty Level that resides inthe geographic boundaries ofthe Diocese of Covington(Boone, Campbell, Kenton,Grant, Owen, Carroll, Gallatin,Pendleton, Mason, Bracken,Robertson, Lewis, Harrisonand Fleming counties).

It’s become evident thatwhile the ACA has been verypositive for our community,there are still folks – especiallyour senior citizens – who can-not afford their premiums,high deductibles and co-pays.Our mission to help those un-able to pay receive medicationfree of charge remains thesame. It is our goal to help with

80 percent of a client’s medica-tion needs, thus freeing upmoney to buy other necessi-ties. It absolutely breaks myheart to hear of anyone, espe-cially senior citizens, choosingbetween housing, food, or life-saving medication.

Faith Community Pharmacyis a charitable 501(c)(3) phar-macy located in Florence.Pharmacy law prohibits usfrom charging our clients anddispensing controlled sub-stances. Because we are aCatholic organization we onlydispense medications in keep-ing with our faith. We focusmainly on chronic diseasestates – heart disease, highblood pressure, diabetes, men-tal illness, and breathing condi-tions. We cannot promise tohave all medications all thetime.

Since opening in 2002 the

pharmacy has dispensed medi-cation valued at nearly $33million to more than 6,000qualified residents of our com-munity. For an individual toreceive help we need a referralaccompanied with prescrip-tions from a health care pro-vide.

Once enrolled, clients withtransportation issues mayreceive help at one of our out-reach locations – Carrollton,Falmouth, Covington and New-port Community Action Cen-ters.

As a pharmacist I feel trulyblessed to have the opportunityto use my professional trainingto help those less fortunate.

Rosana Aydt is the co-founder andexecutive director of Faith Commu-nity Pharmacy. She is also a phar-macist.

Faith Community Pharmacy growing again

RosanaAydtCOMMUNITYRECORDER GUESTCOLUMNIST

The county attorney’s officegets calls from individuals andreceives motions filed by at-torneys concerning the ex-pungement or removal of con-victions from someone’s rec-ord. This article will explainwhat offenses may be eligiblefor expungement and the pro-cedure to have an offense ex-punged.

Before proceeding, it shouldbe noted that if your criminalcase was dismissed with preju-dice or you were acquitted ofthe charge(s), the charge canbe expunged 60 days after thedismissal or acquittal pursuantto KRS 431.076.

Felonies: Although mostfelony convictions cannot beexpunged, the opportunity forexpungement may be availableif the person charged complet-ed a pretrial diversion pro-gram instead of pleadingguilty. Completion of the pro-gram results in the chargebeing listed as “dismissed-

diverted.” Thislisting does notconstitute acriminal con-viction and thepersoncharged is notrequired to listthe dispositionon most em-ployment andlicensing ap-plications.Even though

there is no statutory procedurefor expungement of a felonythat was disposed of as “dis-missed-diverted,” the Ken-tucky Court of Appeals hasallowed for expungement un-der these circumstances.

Misdemeanors and Vio-lations (including traffic of-fenses): Most misdemeanorsand violations can be expungedexcept offenses involving sexor children. However, youcannot expunge a misdemean-or if you have had a felony,

misdemeanor, or violationconviction or if you have onepending against you since themisdemeanor conviction youseek to expunge.

A person can file for ex-pungement five years after thecompletion of the sentence (i.e.the date you were sentenced)or five years after the end oftheir probation – whichever islater.

It should be noted that al-though traffic offenses stay onyour accessible driving historyrecord for three years, thetraffic violation will stay onyour criminal record until it isexpunged. For some, like anapplicant for a commercialdriver’s license, a recklessdriving charge that is still onyour criminal record, no mat-ter how long ago, may be detri-mental.

Juvenile Offenses: Certainjuvenile offenses may be eligi-ble for expungement as wellpursuant to KRS 610.330 such

as status offenses (such asrunaway), misdemeanors(such as shoplifting), and vio-lations (such as harassment)that fall under KRS 630, 635 or645. Offenses prosecuted un-der KRS 620 (dependency,neglect or abuse) or KRS 640(youthful offenders) are noteligible nor are offenses thatwould be felonies had theybeen committed by an adult.

Process for Expungement:The process of expunging acriminal charge can take asignificant amount of time andeffort because it involves sev-eral steps with the multiplegovernment agencies. To initi-ate the process, the personseeking expungement mustacquire a certification fromthe Kentucky State Police.

The process to obtain thecertification can be found athttp://bit.ly/KYexpunge . Onceyou have the certification, youmust file the appropriate pet-ition with the court where the

charge occurred. The courtwill then review the petitionand decide whether to grant ordeny the expungement. If theexpungement is granted, thecourt and all other listed agen-cies will expunge any recordsrelated to the charge. I recom-mend that anyone seeking toexpunge a criminal recordseek an attorney to assist indetermining your eligibilityfor expungement of a criminalcharge and completing theexpungement process for you.

The first time CampbellCounty played Scott this season,Jan. 16, the Camels didn’t havejunior center Matt Wilson be-cause of a sprained ankle.Campbell lost 77-68 to the Ea-gles that night, which ultimate-ly forced the Camels into amatch with rival Bishop Bros-sart for the right to advance tothe 10th Region Tournament.Campbell had only beaten its Al-exandria city rivals by twopoints in the regular season.

Now, when it mattered most,the 6-foot-8 Wilson was backhealthy and in top form as theCamels secured another shot atScott Wednesday and kept theirhopes alive of defending their2014 10th Region championship.Campbell (20-9) routed Bros-sart (14-11) 66-44 in a 37th Dis-trict semifinal at CampbellCounty Middle School. TheCamels continued that momen-tum with an emphatic rout ofScott, 70-26, for the title.

Wilson scored a game-high 18points to lead the Camelsagainst Scott. Wilson scored 12points in the second quarteralone, and was named the tour-nament most valuable player.

Senior forward DeondreJackson and senior guard BlakeLosey each scored 11, and wereboth named to the all-tourna-ment team.

The 10th Region tourney is atMason County. Campbell playsBourbon County Wednesday.The semis are 6 and 7:30 p.m.Monday and the final 7 p.m.Tuesday.

The Camels got this far afterthe strong effort against theMustangs.

“They played us to two pointslast time,” said Campbell headcoach Aric Russell after thesemis. “We wanted to come outand dictate the tempo with ourdefense. I felt like our focus wasreally good tonight. We shotwell and battled a little bit. I feltwe dominated form beginningto end.”

Wilson controlled the actionwith 26 points and 13 rebounds,and his height and reach insidediscouraged the Mustangs fromattempting many shots inside.He sprained his ankle Jan. 12and missed the next six gamesbefore returning Feb. 6.

“Mentally I got in a slump,”Wilson said. “The mental part,you don’t want to step on any-

one, reinjure it again. After I gotover that hump, it’s good fromthere. I had a few good games ina row and finally got back there.Coming into this game. I wantedto come out and dominate the

best I could, do it for my broth-ers, punch our ticket to MasonCounty.”

Said Russell: “That’s huge.We missed that all year withMatt. It took him a while to get

back to where he was but peoplewill see he’s back and he’s a bigfactor for us.”

Three players scored 10points for Campbell to supportWilson’s dominance: Senior

guard Blake Losey, senior wingDeondre Jackson and juniorguard Trent McGovney. Spen-cer Hackworth led Brossart

Thomas More Collegeended three weeks of un-certainty this week whenit named Regis Scafe thefifth head coach in pro-gram history.

“Being without a headcoach was a weird feel-ing,” said junior defensivelineman Erick Butler.“We’re ready to get back towork.”

When Jim Hilvert re-signed on Jan. 28 to takethe head coaching job atLa Salle High School, theSaints players werecaught off guard. They un-derstood Hilvert’s motiva-tions and were happy forhis family-based decision,but had to reevaluate thedirection of their pro-gram.

“It was definitely hard.Coach Hilvert is the big-gest reason most of us areat Thomas More,” said ju-nior quarterback JensenGebhardt. “Once he left,our players stepped up tokeep our team focused andmotivated.”

Scafe is an accom-plished head coach, bestknown for his 14 seasonsas head coach at John Car-roll University, where heposted an 88-56 record.Prior to leading the BlueStreaks, Scafe spent fiveseasons as head coach atCase Western Reserve, hisalma mater. He under-stands that he has bigshoes to fill, as Hilvert ledThomas More to a 67-19mark and six conferencechampionships in eightseasons.

“It is kind of a uniquesituation that happened.It’s a very rare opportuni-ty to take over a programlike this. It is not a rebuild-ing project,” Scafe said. “Iwasn’t really looking tojump back in. It wouldhave to be a really good fit,which Thomas More is.”

The Cleveland nativedid not leave JCU on hisown terms. He spent a sea-son coaching linebackersat Division II Notre DameCollege, then spent lastyear working with the In-

ternational Federation ofAmerican Football devel-opment camp in Arling-ton, Texas. The past twoyears, after his ouster atJohn Carroll, gave Scafenew perspective.

“Sometimes you stepback and you see thingsdifferently. I feel re-ener-gized and excited,” Scafesaid. “I feel like I’ve gotsome unfinished busi-ness.”

That includes a returnto the Division III play-offs, where the Saintshave not been since 2011and Scafe has not ap-peared since 2002. Scafemet with Thomas Moreplayers during the inter-view process and recipro-cated their enthusiasm.While the players were notdirectly involved in thehiring decision, they arehappy with the admini-stration’s choice.

“He was extremely per-sonable. He really wantedto get to know us as peo-ple,” Butler said. “Heshowed us that he caresabout his players, which issomething Coach Hilvertdid and something thatreally means a lot to us.”

Scafe will meet with theSaints assistant coachesand hopes to keep the staffintact. He does not plan onmaking any wholesalechanges, and likes thefoundation that he inheri-ts.

“I like to empower myassistant coaches, and Ihope they stick around. Ijust want to tinker andmake use of ourstrengths,” Scafe said.“Thomas More has a greatwinning tradition. Thereare high expectationswithin the program, theathletic department, andon campus.”

During the lengthysearch, the players heldplayers-only meetings an-dy discussed what theywant in a new coach.

“In this process, I thinkwe came closer togetheras a team,” Butler said.

“This takes a burdenoff everyone’s shoulders,”Gebhardt said. “Everyoneis pretty excited.”

Panamacruise is alock for

size is not the only factorin Cincinnati Reds CEOBob Castellini’s baseballdecisions. There’s a fanfactor, too, says AssistantGeneral Manager DickWilliams.

“Bob wants so badly tomake everyone proud ofthe Reds,” Williams said.“That’s why he’s madesome of the decisions hehas made.

“We rank in the middleof the league in atten-dance. In spending as apercentage of revenue,we are tops in the league.”

Williams explained thebusiness side of profes-sional baseball at the Flor-ence Rotary Club on Mon-day, Feb. 2. Roughly $125million of the Reds’ $175million goes into playersalaries, he said.

From a business per-spective, that means de-veloping players “to getas much as we can (fromtheir performance) be-fore they get to free agen-cy,” Williams explained.For example, the Redssigned promising catcherDevin Mesoraco to a four-year contract worth $28million.

The Reds must go toarbitration hearings withtwo other young players,ace reliever AroldisChapman and infielderTodd Frazier, becausethey could not come to

agreement on contractsprior to February.

“It can be a bit of a con-tentious process,” Wil-liams said.

In December the Redstraded starting pitchersMat Latos and Alfredo Si-mon, both of whom couldbecome free agents afternext seasons. The tradeleft the Reds short ondepth “but we have a lotof good arms we feel goodabout,” Williams said.“We’ve got a lot of goodyoung players but a fewifs … all could be a yearaway.”

One of the promisingprospects is Raisec Igle-sias, a Cuban signee whojoined the Reds in June.He performed well in theinstructional league andArizona Fall League, ac-cording to Williams. LikeChapman, he could start

or come out of the bullpen“but (Manager BryanPrice) knows he’s project-ed to be a starter.”

One of the “ifs” is thehealth of key players, Wil-liams said. First basemanJoey Votto and pitchersHomer Bailey and SeanMarshall all will be com-ing back from injuries.

Another “if” is of-fense. The Reds acquiredveteran outfielder Mar-lon Byrd from the Philliesto improve their offen-sive production. “Thatgives us a lot of options,”Williams observed.“From 1 through 7 in thebatting order, we willhave very good offensiveplayers.”

We all want a goodnight’s sleep, but forsome of us, sleep is hardto come by. If you expe-rience trouble fallingasleep or staying asleep,awakening too early ornever feeling rested,you are not alone.

Many adults experi-ence sleep disturbancesat some point. The Na-tional Institutes ofHealth estimates thatnearly 30 percent of thegeneral adult populationcomplains of sleep dis-ruption, and about 10percent has functionalimpairment in the day-time that is a telltalesign of insomnia.

Sleep helps yourbrain work properly.Sleep can also affectyour physical health,safety, and quality oflife. In children andteens, sleep supportsgrowth and develop-ment.

Thosewho lacksleep mayhave trou-ble mak-ing deci-sions,solvingproblems,control-ling emo-tions ormanagingchange.

Children and teens wholack sleep may haveproblems getting alongwith others. They mighthave mood swings, lackmotivation, or feel an-gry and impulsive. Theyalso may not be able topay attention which mayaffect their school per-formance.

An ongoing lack ofsleep has been linked toan increased risk ofheart disease, kidneydisease, high blood pres-sure, diabetes and

stroke. It also increasesthe risk of obesity.

Sometimes you canmake behavior changesto have a more restfulnight.

These changes in-clude following a reg-ular sleep schedule,creating a comfortablesleep environment,avoiding stimulatingactivities before bed-time and decreasing oravoiding the consump-tion of alcohol, caffeineand nicotine close tobedtime.

If you consistentlyhave trouble with un-settled sleeping pat-terns, talk with yourdoctor or health careprovider.

The pair have traveledextensively together andadventured to distant lo-cales with the U.S. AirForce.

“I didn’t go into the mil-itary with the idea of expe-riencing the world, but I’mglad I had that opportunityto go,” said Larry Dettmer.

Chris Dettmer said peo-ple usually have an idea ofwhere they want to go for atrip, but they don’t realizeall the complications in-volved in long-distancetravel planning.

“Even though cruisesare mentioned in the busi-ness name, we can helppeople with any kind oftravel,” she said. “We’re afull-service travel agencyand can help people with

flights, hotels, vacationpackages, travel insur-ance and rentals, as well asall the other associatedneeds. If you’re planning atrip online, no one is goingto tell you how to get apassport or how to renewone. We can help with pret-ty much anything you needfor your trip.”

Larry Dettmer said Ex-pedia cruiseshipcentersstarted in Vancouver andis slowly expanding. Thereare 40 locations now, butthe company has plans tohave up to 220 offices with-in five years.

Question: I would liketo grow some of my ownfruits at home, but I haveclay soil and not a lot of

sunshine insome areasdue tolarge trees.What doyou sug-gest?

Answer:Fruit cropscan usuallytolerateclay soils,as long asit’s not alow, wet

area. You will need toselect the sunniest loca-tion for your fruit cropsin order to get high-qual-ity, well-colored fruit.

Although growing fruitat home has many advan-tages, you also must plancarefully, follow certainrequirements for careand give your plantingsquite a bit of attention ifyou want to produce high-quality fruit.

Your success or failurewill depend on (1) avoid-ing low, wet sites; (2)selecting a sunny locationwhere cold air does notsettle and stagnate, toavoid late spring frosts;(3) choosing fruit typesadapted to Northern Ken-tucky conditions; (4) se-lecting varieties withsome disease and insectresistance; (5) adequatecontrol of weeds, diseasesand insects; and (6) ade-quate time working withthe plants to give yourplantings the care theyneed.

Northern Kentuckyweather, especially thefluctuating warmth andcold in spring, jeopardizeseven the best-maintainedfruit planting. Occasional-ly, extreme low wintertemperature or latespring freezes wipe outentire crops.

Choosing a siteinvolvesseveral factors. The loca-tion should be fertile andpreferably near thehouse. Fruit plants thrivebest in fertile soil but willgive good returns onaverage soil, especiallystrawberries and othersmall fruits. You can addorganic matter to the soilby mixing in heavy appli-cations of compost, ma-nure, decayed sawdust,etc. before planting.

In order to help withdrainage of your clay soil,the planting locationshould, if possible, behigher than surroundingareas and have a slope of2 to 10 percent so thatcold air, like water, willflow downhill and awayfrom the planting. If fruitplants are in a low place,fruit buds (flower buds)are more likely to be

killed by late frosts. When choosing fruit

tree varieties, and for tipson insect and diseasecontrol, refer to the publi-cation, “Disease and In-sect Control Programs forHomegrown Fruit inKentucky, Including Or-ganic Alternatives”(ID-21), which is availableonline or from your Coun-ty Extension Office.

Also, consider theadvantages of dwarf va-rieties. Dwarfed treesproduce the same qualityfruit as larger standardtrees. The principal ad-vantages of dwarf treesare: They bear fruit muchsooner; they bear lessfruit per tree, so there’snot so much fruit all atonce that it becomes aproblem, as often happenswith standard trees; fruitis usually larger and morehighly colored than in thesame variety on standardrootstocks; you can reachall parts of the tree easily,so that all operations maybe performed from the

ground or from a smallstepladder; smaller, lessexpensive spray equip-ment is needed; anddwarf fruit trees areeasier to prune, train orespalier than standardtrees.

Shane Brodnick lovesto explore caves, consid-ers himself a “sport cav-er.” But the 26-year-oldman from Cheviot says heknows better these daysthan to go gallivanting un-derground.

As an environmentalconsultant, Brodnick as-sesses bat habitats for aliving. He examines landfor private clients and per-forms bat surveys forstate wildlife agencies.

He has seen the littledead bodies littering cavefloors and once-thrivingbat colonies shrinking

year after year. He knowsthese are the effects ofwhite-nose syndrome.

“It’s very disconcertingand depressing,” Brodnicksaid. “How many moreyears do we have of thesebats in these areas?”

The U.S. Fish and Wild-life Service estimatesmore than 5.7 million batshave died from white-nosesyndrome, having spread-throughout the Northeastand Midwest since first be-ing detected in New Yorkin 2006.

Ohio, Indiana and Ken-tucky are now on the frontlines, local scientists andwildlife managers say, andit’s important that peopleknow what part humans

can play in the contain-ment of the disease.

White-nose syndromeis a disease caused by afungus that predominatelyaffects bats during hiber-nation. Because the fun-gus sheds spores, it can becarried from bat to bat andfrom humans, who mayhave the spores on theirclothing or gear, to bats.

By the end of last year,white-nose syndrome hadspread through Ohio, Ken-tucky and Indiana. It’sbeen confirmed or sus-pected in 37 of Indiana’s 46caves and is decimating asmuch as 85 percent ofsome bat colonies in Ken-tucky, according to wild-life officials.

Seven bat species, in-cluding two endangeredspecies, have had con-firmed cases.

“The million-dollarquestion: How are somebats that should be ex-posed to the pathogenavoiding infection and

mortality,” said JonathanReichard, national assis-tant coordinator for white-nose syndrome for the U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service.

Ohio has fewer caves,but mines serve as hiber-nating chambers for batsand the disease has beenfound in those, too, saidRichard Geboy, Midwestregional coordinator onwhite-nose syndrome forthe U.S. Fish and WildlifeService.

The disease was con-firmed in Ohio and Indianain 2011.

Most state-ownedcaves are now closed be-cause of the syndrome, al-though Indiana began a pi-lot program to allow somevisits to the caves inSpring Mill State Park.

But many privatelyowned caves and somepublic ones like MammothCave National Park still al-low visitors.

WHITE-NOSESYNDROME

HOW DOES THEFUNGUS KILL A BAT?

A new study by the U.S.Geological Survey and theUniversity of Wisconsinreleased in January givesus a better understandingof how the fungus kills abat. The study found thatbats with the fungus useup twice as much of theirenergy while hibernatingthan healthy bats, duringa time when the batsmust carefully ration theirenergy to survive withouteating until spring. Thosethat are diseased use uptheir energy too quicklyand die. Right now thefatality rate is startlinglyhigh and could lead tothe extinction of somebat species.

WHERE DID THEFUNGUS COMEFROM?

The fungus is thoughtto be an invasive species,carried here from anotherpart of the world eitherby an infected bat, ormore likely by a person.Here in North America,transmission is primarilybat-to-bat but humanscan also unwittingly playa part. It was first detect-ed in February 2006 inSchoharie County, N.Y.,west of Albany.

WHAT IS BEINGDONE?

All that can be done isprevention and conserva-tion, promoting batreproduction and main-taining healthy habitats,but there are probioticand chemical treatmentsin development, ncludingforms that could go oncave walls or be sprayedonto bats.
