Sixth-grade science teacherMelanie Carr is going weightlessto teach her class.

Carr, who teaches science atIndian Hill High School, and col-league Vera Hayslip, who alsoteaches science at the school, willbe part of an upcoming NorthropGrumman Weightless Flights ofDiscovery Program.

During the flight, Carr willactually experience zero gravity.

It’s a way to teach science tothe students through an “ultimatehands-on approach,” said Carr.

“I’ve ridden a glider planebefore, but have never done any-thing like this,” said Carr.

The flight will depart fromCincinnati/Northern KentuckyInternational Airport Sept. 14. Sheand Hayslip will attend a work-shop Aug. 14.

Teachers on the flight will havean opportunity to actually try an

experiment, which will be video-taped and shown to the students.

Carr, 46, said this experimentcould involve anything fromblowing bubbles to demonstratinghow zero gravity affects a rocketracer.

Carr and her classes have doneseveral experiments involvingrocket racers at the school.

She said the experience is espe-cially memorable since her classesstudy force, gravity and Newton’slaws of motion.

“When you teach science, youstress adventure and discovery,”said Carr. “This will be the ulti-mate discovery.”

“Armstrong continues tobe dedicated to Madis-onville, not just (through)the Street Fest but also intheir outreach,” she said.

Custer said Armstrongcontinues to offer outreachin the Madisonville commu-nity through tutoring pro-grams at local schools andin its efforts with Habitat forHumanity, which teamslocal churches with thenon-profit group to buildhomes for those in need.

Custer said he was one ofthe volunteers who handedout backpacks at John Park-er Elementary School lastyear, and said he was sur-prised at how happy the

children were to receivenew school supplies.

“It opened my eyes.They were very, very excit-ed,” he said.

Indian Hill High Schoolteacher Mary Golubieski iswell known for inspiring artin the classroom.

She’s now broadeningthe curriculum to includehistory as well.

Golubieski, who is avisual art educator at theschool, is introducing anAdvanced Placement art his-tory class this school year.

“It covers a lot of the his-tory of art starting with pre-historic to contemporary,”said Golubieski.

She said the class will

examine art history as farback as the Paleolithic eraup to the modern day.

Golubieski said the classwill not only explore thehistory of art chronological-

ly, but it will also highlightthe art styles of differentcultures.

“It will be a globalapproach,” she said.

Golubieski said the classshould appeal to studentswho may not have actualdrawing experience.

“It’s giving kids anotheroption,” said Golubieski.“There is no studio work inthis class.”

However, she said it doesprovide students with anopportunity to obtain a fineart credit.

“This will be more thanjust memorizing names anddates,” said Golubieski. “I’m

hoping at the end of theclass I can show (the stu-dents) a piece of art andthey will be able to identifyits meaning both culturallyand symbolically.”

Golubieski admits thisclass will be slightly new for

her. She took a course toprepare for it earlier thissummer.

“I’m definitely learningthings I didn’t know, espe-cially the history and art ofnon-Western cultures” shesaid.

Golubieski also partici-pated in the CraftSummerworkshops at Miami Uni-versity this summer.

She took classes inmovie making, digital pho-tography and colored penciltechniques.

Some of the leatherbacksea turtles in Trinidad andTobago may owe their livesto an Indian Hill HighSchool science teacher.

Laura Koehne assistedNature Seekers, a non-profitconservation organizationin Trinidad, with tagging theturtles in an effort to pre-vent poaching and destruc-tion of their habitat.

“It was very excitingbecause you felt you weremaking a difference,” saidKoehne. “You knew theseturtles could be protectedbecause they are trackingtheir movements.”

The turtles are poachedfor their meat and shells.The turtles also facedestruction of their habitaton the beach.

By tagging the turtles,locations on the beachwhere they lay their eggscan be marked and protect-ed, said Koehne.

Additionally, NatureSeekers is involved in pro-tecting the blue and goldmacaw native to the area.Koehne helped in this effortas well.

The organization isinvolved in efforts to rein-troduce the macaws to theNariva Swamp in Trinidad.

The macaws are alsoendangered by poachers,who sell the birds as pets.

The reintroduction of themacaws to the swamp hasshown success, saidKoehne, with the popula-tion growing from nine indi-vidual birds to 12 pairs inthe last few years.

Koehne went to Trinidadand Tobago as part of anEarth Expedition sponsoredby Miami University as partof its master’s program. Sheplans to get a master’sdegree in zoology.

Last year, she traveled toKenya.

“It was a great experi-ence,” said Koehne aboutthe recent trip. “It was

hands-on science. It was abehind the scenes look atconservation.”

Koehne, who kept adaily journal, will share herexperiences with her stu-dents.

“We will discuss the dif-ferent techniques used forconservation,” she said.“The turtles will be anexample of how local peoplewho have an interest in(an) issue can make a dif-ference.”

The Indian Hill High Schooltennis team returns six startersfrom a team that went 17-3 in2009 and the Braves should beone of the stronger teams in thearea again this fall.

“We had an amazing seasonlast year and I’m hoping we pickup right where we left off andkeep moving in the direction ofheading towards state,” said headcoach Lindsay Morris.

The team will be led by seniorKelsey Matthews, who playedNo.1 singles for Indian Hill in2009 and went 16-1.

“She’s taken tennis a lot moreseriously in the past few yearsand has played in a ton of tourna-ments and now she’s one of thetop players in the region,” Morrissaid. “She really stepped up andled the team through some toughmatches and was a big reason wemade it so far last year.”

Matthews was the CHL playerof the year in 2009 and Indian Hillalso had a number of underclass-

men on the first-team all-CHL list,including Taylor Schumacher, Flo-rence Vanderschueren, Kasey

Schumacher and Rachel Littman.Littman played No.3 singles

and was 15-2 for Indian Hill.

“Rachel works harder thanmany players out there year-round and will be more experi-enced this season,” Morris said.

Morris said the Braves bulkedup their schedule this season toinclude matches against some ofthe more difficult teams in theregion and from Columbus.

“CHCA is always a challenge,Ursuline will be good this yearand, in the conference, Wyomingis usually strong,” Morris said.“Our goal is to finish at least aswell as we did last year and makeit farther in the state team tourna-ment and get more girls in thestate tournament as individuals.”

Only Matthews qualified forthe state tournament as an indi-vidual in 2009.

Morris said the key to the pro-gram’s recent success has beenthe increased intensity.

“We’re also coming togetherfor a common goal and that’s tomake it to state,” she said. “We’recounting on the girls who startedlast year to keep performing likethey did. This will probably be thebest team we’ve seen in a longtime for Indian Hill.”

She said that the 2009 seasonwas one of the best teams the pro-gram has seen in many years andthat this team is capable ofexceeding those accomplish-ments.

“I’m very excited for the sea-son to get started and I startedpreparing for it the minute lastseason ended,” Morris said.

Indian Hill opens the seasonon Aug. 18 against ColumbusAcademy.

The Cincinnati CountryDay girls’ volleyball teamwill look a little different thisfall. For starters, the Indiansgraduated five seniors fromthe 2009 team. Also, CCDwill have a new coach onthe sidelines in formerCincinnati Christian juniorhigh coach Ashley Snell.

“I haven’t had much timewith the team so far, but Ithink they look very prom-ising for this upcoming sea-son,” Snell said. “We have alot of tall girls with talentthat I’ve seen so far and I’mimpressed with them.

“I think they will have agood season.”

Snell has been in thesame conference as Cincin-nati Country Day for thepast three seasons at Cincin-nati Christian.

She took the junior varsi-ty position at CCD and waseventually bumped up tovarsity coach when the

position opened.“I’m excited,” Snell said.

“I’m really excited to becoaching at the high schoollevel again.”

While the team graduat-ed some talented players,the Indians still bring backsome standouts. Leading

the way for CincinnatiCountry Day will be juniorsErika Armstead and RicciSnell. Lindsay Dougan is areturning senior who will beanother standout for theIndians.

“My goal for the team isto stir within them a passionfor the game and for win-ning,” Snell said.

“I want them to havethat desire and my big thingfrom a coaching standpointis consistency and tech-nique. If we have strongtechnique and are mentallystrong, we will be good.”

Snell said she’s seen theteam in open gyms and thatshe’s excited to start theseason soon.

“They look like theyhave a lot of potential butyou never have your teamcompletely together in opengyms,” Snell said, “so it’sexciting to get practicingand work with them so youcan get them to have goodteamwork and see thepotential I see in them.”

SIDELINES

By Anthony [email protected]

Numerous returningplayers with experiencefrom Ursuline Academy’svictory in the 2009 DivisionI state finals – the fourthstate title in the volleyballprogram’s history – are backfor fifth-year head coachJeni Case in the hopes ofdefending the Lions’ title in2010.

But Ursuline’s undefeat-ed 29-0 season in 2009doesn’t quite provide thesame teachable moment asthe Lions’ loss in the 2008state finals.

Last summer, avengingthe 2008 loss was men-tioned early and often byCase and her players.

But now the Lions havea title to defend as the teamattempts to ignore its highmark from one season ago.

“Every year is new and itdoesn’t matter what you didlast year,” Case said of hermentality entering the 2010campaign. “We lost some

really strong players so Idon’t feel like (this team)will be playing with pres-sure.”

With that said, Case isstill confident her bunch canrise to the top again.

“I just tell them there’sno reason they can’t do itagain but we don’t reallytalk about (defending thestate title) much,” Case said.“They are a talented group

and they want it.”Ursuline’s roster is popu-

lated by six key returningplayers with a core of nineseniors leading the way.

Though the Lions don’thave a season-ending lossto fuel them, Case believesUrsuline’s strong leadershipwill help carry the team.

“The seniors want to endon a good note and they’vealready had good careers,”

Case said. “When you havenine seniors on the team it’skind of neat. You don’t getthat often.”

Ursuline returns fivesenior starters includingKori Moster (libero), Christi-na Beer (middle hitter),Olivia Johnson (right hitter),Elena Lohr (outside hitter)and Abby Engdahl (outsidehitter, defensive specialist)in addition to returning jun-ior Noelle Langenkamp(middle hitter).

Beer, a third-year starter,finished fifth in the Girls’Greater Cincinnati Leaguelast fall with 231 kills.Moster is committed toMichigan State Universityand finished second in theGGCL with 493 digs in2009.

Langenkamp stands at6-foot-1 with Johnson at 6-foot in the hopes of replac-ing some of the firepowerlost from graduation includ-ing 2010 graduate JadeHenderson’s GGCL-leadingtotal of 366 kills.

Senior Nikki Hill (setter)

and juniors Iris Brewer (set-ter) and Kate Reilly (righthitter) will also be key con-tributors, Case said.

Jamie Goldschmidt wasout all last season becauseof her back, Case said. Shewas honorable mention all-league her sophomore year.

“I think there’s definitelya possibility (that this year’steam will be as good as our2009 state championshipteam) just because he haveso many seniors and a corewho have been there,” Casesaid. “They will have toplay a bigger role this yearbut we could definitely beone of the top teams in thestate.

“It will take a lot morework than it did last yearthough,” Case added.

Ursuline opens with aroad game against Alter at 7p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 31,before hosting its homeopener against Notre Dameat 6:30 p.m. Wednesday,Sept. 1.

Last week’s question:How much of a difference

will Terrell Owens make for theBengals, both on the field andoff the field?

“It’s anybody’s guess. On onehand, he has some impressiveseasons (2000-2002 with SanFrancisco and 2007-2008 withDallas), but on the other hand,the ability of anyone to endurethe rigors of professional footballand continue to excel is limited.

“Owens is only three yearsyounger than Brett Favre, and hisposition (wide receiver) is proba-bly more demanding in terms ofstamina than Brett. For now, atleast for a year or so, the team ofChad and Terrell will be a formida-ble challenge for the Bengals’opponents.”

Bill B.

“Hard to tell this early, butsince he has a reputation of speed,and with Ocho Cinco on the otherend of the line, the chances ofmore scoring might be greater forthis season.”

O.H.R.

“While Terrell’s arrival wascovered in a positive way and hebehaved quite well, his pastactions with multiple teams wor-ries me. I hope he has maturedand is now ready to be a teamplayer instead of the prima donnawe’ve seen too much of in thepast.

“My son and I have seasontickets and plan to give him a real

chance. We just hope he doesn’tgive us any reason to boo him.”

R.V.

“I was not in favor of TerrellOwens becoming a Bengal. Hecertainly didn’t come here witheven a hint of humility. I surehope he proves worth it on thefield and that he doesn’t prove tobe a distraction in the lockerroom.”

M.K.T.

“I think he gives them a doublethreat which will be difficult todefend and should result in moreoffense. As for off the field, onecan only hope he has maturedand worked past his foolish past.”

B.N.

“With having Chad and TO theatmosphere will be lively to saythe least. Defenders won’t bedoing the double coverage onChad, so our passing gain shouldbe stellar.”

Social Security recentlyredesigned its online frequentlyasked questions database con-taining answers to hundreds ofquestions.

Cincinnati Public Affairs Spe-cialist Sue Denny recently testedthe searchable database using aquestion posed by a local finan-cial planner: “Can you provide mewith some information about vol-untary suspension of retirementbenefits? We have a 66-year-oldclient who would like to furtherinquire about stopping his bene-fits and the procedure, then whathe can expect when he decides torestart.”

Sue turned to the link “Have aquestion? Find an answer here”in the upper right corner of SocialSecurity Online’s homepage atwww.socialsecurity.gov.

She typed in a version of thefinancial planner’s question – CanI withdraw my claim? – and hitthe red search button. Sue found

the exactanswer she waslooking for:

Q. Can Iwithdraw myapplication forbenefits if Ichange mymind?

A. Yes. If youapplied for ben-efits andchanged yourmind, you cancomplete the

Request for Withdrawal of Appli-cation (Form SSA-521) and re-apply at a future date.

Be sure to include on the formthe reason you want to withdraw.

However, if you are alreadyreceiving Social Security benefitsand change your mind, you stillmay be able to withdraw yourSocial Security claim and reapplyat a future date.

If you are already receiving

benefits, withdrawing means themonthly amount you receive inthe future could be higher. Butyou must repay all benefitsalready paid to you.

You can find information aboutwithdrawing your application onour “If you change your mind”page.

To get to the “If you changeyour mind” page, click request forwithdrawal of application, whereyou will find a downloadable PDFversion of the SSA-521.

Beyond that, users of the FAQdatabase have several options:

• You can share the answeron social networking sites (e.g.Facebook, Twitter, and others);print the answer; e-mail the page;or be notified when the answer isupdated.

• You can ask another relatedquestion.

• You can indicate if theresponse was not useful. A textbox will pop up where you canprovide details and tell us how we

can make the answer more use-ful. (Please do not include yourSocial Security Number or anyother personal information.) Yourfeedback is for informational pur-poses only, and you will notreceive a response.

• If you are unable to find theanswer to your question you cancontact Social Security to submit aquestion to our support team.

So the next time you have aSocial Security question, I strong-ly encourage you to visit the newand improved database of fre-quently asked questions atwww.socialsecurity.gov. You’remore likely than ever to findexactly the information you need.

With the 21st century econo-my becoming increasingly mobile,Ohio’s lawmakers must takeimmediate action to make our jobmarket nationally competitive.

Our state needs to move intothe new economy by encouraginghigh-tech growth and, above all,keeping our brightest minds herein Ohio.

Without a solid business cli-mate and an educated populationto sustain it we have virtually nohope of repairing our economy.

Ohio does not have enoughcollege graduates or cutting-edgejobs to compete with other states.

On average, individuals withmaster’s degrees are about 30percent more likely to leave Ohiothan those with bachelor’sdegrees, while individuals withdoctorate degrees are more thantwice as likely to relocate.

Additionally, those withdegrees in high-tech fields such asscience and engineering are mostlikely to move out of Ohio –which unfortunately means thatwe are losing our links to themodern, innovative economy.

Ohio and pro-growth stateslike Colorado and Texas are com-peting for the same jobs and tal-ent.

Not surprisingly, the combina-tion of job climate and geographiclocation are driving our brightest

minds to thestates of theSouth and West.

While wecannot moveour state closerto the ocean ormountains, wecan establish abetter businessclimate that willattract economicinvestment andcreate jobs.

An exampleof the benefits of revamping thebusiness climate can be seen inour neighbor, Indiana.

Thanks to their governor,Mitch Daniels, the Hoosier Stateturned a $700 million budgetdeficit into a $1 billion surplus bytrimming more than $250 millionin waste and halving the state’srate of spending growth.

In just two years, the stateattracted $8 billion in foreigninvestment and, as a result of themore welcoming business climate,is projected to jump from 47th to20th on the ALEC-Laffer StateEconomic Competitiveness Index.

The state of Indiana rolled upits sleeves and did what it neededto do in an increasingly competi-tive and mobile national econo-my.

Their lawmakers were not

naysayers; they did not point fin-gers at the climate or the Midwestlandscape.

They knew that the payoffwould be worth the challenge,and they have proven that theclaims that tax climate, not geog-raphy, is the root cause of exodusfrom the Midwestern states.

More than anything, graduateswant secure, high-paying jobs,and it is long overdue that Ohiomake the same effort that Indianadid to turn the economy around.

As state representative of the35th Ohio House District, I amdetermined to give the young pro-fessionals in our communityopportunities for success.

This General Assembly, in theface of double-digit unemploy-ment rates and a staggering $8billion deficit pushed into the nextbudget, the House majority main-tained an anti-business status quothat did nothing to give ouryoung people incentives to stayhere.

I will continue to fight for amore lucrative business climatethat the next generation ofOhioans will be able to appreciate.Rep. Maag may be reached by calling(614) 644-6023 or by writing to: State

From first editions ofclassic novels to militaryhistory anthologies, TheDust Jacket’s shelves arebrimming with books.

Sam Jenike opened TheDust Jacket in 1980 andnow the used book shop,3200 Linwood Ave., hascustomers on nearly everycontinent.

“In the old days I’d huntgarage sales and auctions,but now many people bringbooks to us,” Jenike said.

“I think we made $78the first month and I neverimagined it would grow intoa global business.”

When Jenike moved thestore to its current location,he asked his longtime friendPhil Metz – they’ve knowneach other since 1949 – tojoin the business.

The men, both retired,alternate days at the storeon Mount Lookout square.

Metz said they see a fairamount of walk-in traffic,but most of the business, upto 70 percent, is conductedonline through two services– AbeBooks.com and Alib-ris.com.

The Dust Jacket housesmany art books, historicalreference, cook books andnovels.

Metz said he’s drawn toCivil War history books aswell as those with beautifulbindings or illustrations.

Jenike, who has been

collecting books since hewas a teenager, said thereare a few remarkable booksthat stand out, including asmall book from 1502.

“It was in Latin and wasabout a Roman general,” hesaid. “It was one of the firstbooks ever printed in theitalic script.”

Other memorable booksthat have passed throughThe Dust Jacket include threevolumes of hand-coloredplate books from famed nat-uralist John James Audubonand an autographed copy ofa Charles Lindbergh bookwith a note from the pilot’swife tucked inside.

“It’s a business, but it’salso a labor of love,” Jenikesaid. “I just love books.They can be works of artand there is nothing finerthan an old, leather-boundbook.”

The word friend can be acatch-all word.

Some people boast abouttheir Facebook friends, “Ihave 75 friends.” Othersreply, “Oh, I have 125,250,or 410, on mine!”

High numbers make usfeel popular and wanted.

In his talks on friend-ships, priest psychologistHenri Nouwen made somehelpful distinctions. He saidthere are five categories ofpeople we call friends.

The categories movefrom an outermost circle(where intimacy is weak) toan inner circle (where theintimacy factor is strongest).

The criterion for deter-mining these five levels offriendship is the degree andquality of mutual self-dis-closure involved.

Acquaintances are theouter category people. Weonly know each othersuperficially.

They may be a teacher;other parents we meet atfield-side watching our kids

play soccer; someone in ouryoga class or that we meton the Internet; a down-the-street neighbor, etc.

The topics with acquain-tances are the weather,sports, newspaper items,school issues, life generali-ties, etc. There’s familiaritybut no depth of communica-tion. If we never see themagain it doesn’t matter.

Colleagues. These arethe people with whom wework, volunteer, or meetwhile doing a project. WhenI taught high-school I wasone of 71 teachers. We werefriendly, joked, ate lunchtogether and chatted in thestaff room.

Our topics were usuallyschool issues, certain stu-dents, athletics, gripesabout the administration orparents, or a good moviewe’ve seen.

At times there was a littlemore conversation into fam-ily or personal issues thanwith acquaintances, but notmuch.

Relatives. These“friends” are the assortedgroup of our grandparents,aunts and uncles, marriagein-laws, cousins, etc.

We may see them oftenor then again only at wed-dings, funerals, holidaysand reunions. But we havea history together and moreknowledge about eachother.

We may exchange minorconfidences or problemssuch as how Uncle Bradwas involved in some kindof shady business deal; Pamis coping with being bi-polar; and Kimberly had abrief but passionate affairwith a married man.

But being a relative doesnot mean we necessarilychoose them as deeper inti-mates.

Family and friends.These are the people withwhom we spend a greatdeal of our time and carryfondly in our hearts – par-ents, siblings, spouse, chil-dren, lifelong friends, etc.

They know us betterthan anyone. There is adeeper feeling of affection,mutual support, and trust. Ifwe lose one of them indeath we grieve profoundly.

Family members share alot with each other, but noteverything. A psychologi-cally healthy person has hisor her own boundaries,inner life, secrets and indi-viduality.

These components ofintimacy are shared onlywith someone of our ownchoice, and it is usuallysomeone who is not a bloodrelative.

Intimate friends. Thisis the innermost circle ofhuman friendship. It is usu-ally our spouse or closestfriend. Such a friendship is

extremely difficult to devel-op, and sadly, is even lack-ing in some marriages.

Recent studies indicatethat compared to similarpolls in the 1980s, there arefewer people today whobelieve they have a first-cir-cle intimate friend.

It requires mutual trust,in-depth and honest com-munication, and time.

Our Facebook count maygive us the impression thatwe have a thousand friends.But it’s unlikely that thismost intimate-type friend isjust one of the crowd.

This most significant cat-egory is not achieved if ourcommunication is chieflythrough e-mail or texting. Acrucial element is missing –presence.

Such afriend is au n i q u et r e a s u r ea n dr e q u i r e sm u c hopennessand communication.

I have remembered foryears the wise words of acollege teacher of mineabout this truest kind offriend: “If in your lifetime,you have one, or two, suchpersons in your life, consid-er yourself fortunate.”

ZEROlandfill launches its third year

Father LouGuntzelmanPerspectives

The Cincinnati Zoo &Botanical Garden recentlyunveiled its newest energysource – the Windspire windturbine. The 30-foot-tall

turbine was installed in theZoo’s Go Green Garden tohelp power the ticketing andmembership building.

Along with the solar

panels in the Go Green Gar-den, the turbine will meetapproximately one-fourth ofall of the power demands forthe building.

“The zoo is a naturalchampion of environmentalsustainability,” said WaltBorland, Windspire EnergyCEO & president. “We areexcited that the Windspirewill now be a part of theirefforts to demonstrate howeasy it is for any us to helpprotect our most importanthabitat – Planet Earth.”

Considered a relativelysmall wind turbine, it pro-vides a low-cost, safe andenergy-efficient method for

harnessing power from thewind. It produces approxi-mately 2,000 kilowatthours per year in 12 miles-per-hour average winds.This is approximately one-third to one–fifth of theenergy usage of an averageU.S. Home, or roughlyenough energy to run adishwasher and refrigeratorfor an entire year.

The Cincinnati Zoo hasreceived many “green”awards. The zoo was

named the 2008 Conserva-tion Partner of the Year bythe Hamilton County Soil &Water Conservation Districtand received the CincinnatiSustainability Award fromthe American Institute ofArchitects in 2009. And, in2010, Ohio Governor TedStrickland declared theCincinnati Zoo “the greenestzoo in the country.’”

Cincinnati Zoo going green with wind turbine power

The temperature on ourthermometer registered103.2 this afternoon.

And in the house, it was-n’t much cooler since I hadbeen making elderberry jellyand berry jams with my sis-ter, Edith and neighbor,Sandy.

But it made me thinkabout kids and adults whoare outdoors and involvedin sports. Proper hydrationis so important to goodhealth and optimum per-formance.

What I worry most aboutkids in this weather is that Iknow it takes longer for achild’s body to adjust toheat and humidity thandoes an adult’s, so we maynot recognize when a childis in trouble, hydrationwise.

Kids produce more bodyheat and don’t sweat asmuch as we do at the sameexertion level, so in hotweather, a young athlete isat increased risk for dehy-dration.

And remember, waterworks as a shock absorberin the body, so beinghydrated protects joints, forboth kids and adults.

That’s why today I’msharing recipes for goodhydration. It’s that impor-tant.

And be sure and checkon older folks, too. Theycan become dehydratedwithout realizing it.

Homemade sportsdrink for kids

From my co-authoredbook “The Official SnackGuide For BeleagueredSports Parents.” Check outcolleague Dawn Weather-wax Fall’s websiteSN2go.com for more infor-mation on hydration andkeeping your athletehealthy.

To dilute a powderedjuice drink, or juice fromconcentrate, use at leasttwice the water recom-mended. Diluting the juice

may taste weak, but it willhydrate your child and giveenergy for the game.

Rita’s spa waterI shared this recipe with

Amy Tobin on her Aug. 8radio show on Q102. Checkout Amystable.com for thecomplete interview.

Amy loves this drink,and so does everyone whotries it. Here’s why: Lemonscontain vitamin C, whichhelps heal bruises, preventscancer and heart disease.

Vitamin C is also a pow-erful antioxidant, and thebody uses vitamin C tomanufacture collagen –that’s the stuff that gluescells together and helpsheals cuts, etc.

Again, the vitamin Callows your body to absorbcalcium better. Susan Parkerof Susan’s Natural Worldadvises that lemons are agentle liver cleanser.

Lemons contain potassi-um, and we know thatnourishes the brain, heart

and muscles. It also helpsyour body better utilize car-bohydrates and iron fromfood.

The mint is a great diges-tive and uplifting herb plusit “fools” your brain intothinking you’re fuller thanyou are. And stevia is a nat-ural sugar substitute herb.

Master recipe:Fill a jar or pitcher

halfway up with peppermintleaves, bruising the leavesas you go. Continue fillingabout 3⁄4 to the top withlemon slices, bruising theslices as you go.

Fill with good qualitywater, let infuse for 30 min-utes at least, and sweeten totaste. Use stevia, a naturalsugar substitute herb, whichis 30 to hundreds of timessweeter than sugar, or usehoney, or drink as is.

Check out my websiteabouteating.com for a videoand more information aboutstevia.

I like to add blueberries,raspberries or sliced straw-

berries for a burst of colorand added nutrition. Thisdrink is refillable.

Frappé like McDonald’sHow about this on a blis-

tering hot day? Reader TomOhmer has been looking fora recipe.

When I called McDon-ald’s, I got a long list ofingredients. It started outwith normal items likewater, cream, sugar, milk,coffee extract, Dutch cocoa,etc.

Then it got dicey withwords only a chemist couldunderstand. Years ago incooking school, we made abase for fun drinks and it issimilar to recipes I found forthis drink. So here’s mytake on it.

Mix together:1⁄3 cup instant coffee, dry,

crushed1 cup sugar1 cup dry milk powder3⁄4 cup nondairy creamer1⁄2 cup Dutch cocoa

Dash ortwo of salt

To makefrappé:

Put ac o u p l ehand fu l sof ice in a blender. Add 1⁄2cup of half & half. Pour in 1⁄2cup of mix. Blend on highuntil smooth. Garnish withwhipped cream and choco-late syrup.

Tips from Rita’s kitchen• Non-alkalized, or natu-

ral, which is the traditionaltype.

• Dutch/alkalized has amilder taste, reduced acidityand is somewhat redder incolor.

• Special dark is a blendof the two.

For Indian Hill nativeCaitlin Crombleholme, a loveof Cincinnati Museum Cen-ter long preceded an interestin museum work.

“I’ve lived in Cincinnatifor eight years and visitedthe museum a lot growingup,” Crombleholme said.

“It’s always seemed like aplace that transports me todifferent times and places.”

After attending her firstyear at Trinity College inHartford, Conn., she becameinterested in pursuing acareer in museums.

Crombleholme is particu-larly interested in museumsthat appeal to diverse inter-ests. Seeing as CincinnatiMuseum Center is home tothe Cincinnati History Muse-um, Museum of Natural His-tory and Science, and theDuke Energy Children’sMuseum, it seemed like anatural place to spend hersummer.

Now as a Cincinnati His-tory Museum intern,Crombleholme is gainingvaluable experience workingwith youth volunteers.

The Cincinnati MuseumCenter’s Internship Programprovides an opportunity forhigher-education students toexplore the many facets ofthe museum and non-profitworld. Interns receive edu-cational and professionaldevelopment in their depart-ment of choice.

Crombleholme primarily

works with younger stu-dents in the volunteer pro-gram.

Selected to work in one ofthe Museum Center’s threemuseums, youth volunteersmust complete a phase sys-tem. Phase evaluations testskills such as knowledge ofthe different museums, cus-tomer service, and the abili-ty to be a museum inter-preter.

Many of Crombleholme’sfavorite tasks thus far haveinvolved conducting suchevaluations.

“It’s my favorite experi-ence because it was the firstindependent thing I did,”she said.

“I was interacting withthe volunteers, and it didn’tfeel like a test but more likea rite of passage for theyouth and for me to havesuch extensive knowledgeabout the museum.”

One task the volunteerscan complete is to be cos-tumed interpreters, sharingtheatrical stories while char-acterizing an individual of agiven time period.

As a triple major in theatre,dance, and English, it is thistask which uniquely appeals

to Cromble-h o l m e ’ sinterests.

“Part of the reason I real-ly like this internship is thatit focuses on history, whichis a subject I love, but thevolunteers can wear cos-tumes and portray differentcharacters,” she said.“That’s the connection forme between history and the-atre.”

Generally, Crombleholmesaid she loves spending timeat the Cincinnati MuseumCenter because “the peopleare so nice . . . and themuseum center definitelyappeals to diverse interests.”

Although Crombleholmeenjoys her time working inthe Cincinnati History Muse-um, she said the Duke Ener-gy Children’s Museum hasalways been her favorite.

“I always wish I couldstill play in the children’smuseum. I have a youngerbrother, but he’s finally tooold to play in it,” she said.

“I guess I have to growup and enjoy the othermuseums.”

Nostalgia aside Cromble-holme still enjoys the oppor-tunity to work with children.

“I love working withkids, but it’s nice becausewe’re treating them likeadults,” she said.

“I really enjoy givingthem trust and responsibili-ty, and being trusted to workon my own as well.”

Where has this summer gone?When I was a kid, my parents toldme how time just goes faster andfaster the older you get, and bygolly they were right!

So as we cruise into the monthof August, here are a few thingsfor you to do doing in your gardenand landscape:

• Keep watering as needed.Remember, one inch of rainfallevery 10 days or so for estab-lished plants, so supplement asneeded. Less frequent watering,but deep and thorough when youdo. Newly planted plants general-ly require watering more often.

Not sure how much rain fallyour yard has gotten? Install thatrain gauge!

• Keep deadheading thosespent flowers on annuals,perennials and roses. Removalof spent flowers encourages newgrowth, and new growth means

more flowers. Itmay also help tokeep those plantsfrom gettingstretched and

leggy.• Annuals

l o o k i n gstretched andleggy? Cutthem back!Most annualsrespond nicely

to a good haircut right now. Cutthem back, water as needed, andwithin a couple of weeks you’llget new growth, new flowers, anda whole new plant as we head intothe fall months. Continue feedingannuals and perennials as needed,and keep feeding those containerplantings as needed.

• Stop feeding woody treesand shrubs at this stage, andbe cautious about any prun-

ing. Whole branch removal can bedone, but be cautious about severepruning. We don’t want to encour-age new growth that may notharden off for the winter, and wedon’t want to remove springflower buds that have alreadyformed or will be forming thismonth.

• Now’s the time to startthat fall garden. Beets, cabbage,carrots, collards, mustards,turnips, radishes, broccoli, Brus-sels sprouts, cauliflower, lettuceand spinach can all be plantedright now, as well as a late crop ofbeans. These are all cool tempera-ture loving plants; as they mature,they’ll be maturing in cooler fallweather.

• Keep planting perennialsfor colors that come back yearafter year.

• Now’s the time to dig anddivide those iris. Cut the leaves

back to a third of their size, dig therhizome clump and wash soil off,cut rhizomes apart so each sectionhas one healthy fan of leaves,inspect and pitch rotted (decayed)or borer-infested rhizomes, prepsoil and replant. Water well, andwater as needed.

• Keep harvesting fruits andveggies as they ripen. Overripened fruits left in the garden areperfect habitats for insects anddiseases. Keep harvesting thoseherbs, and start drying them forwinter use. Don’t let those annualherbs flower, as that tells the plantto stop growing.

• Keep mowing the grass ona regular basis (never removemore than a third of the bladeseach time you mow), and mow ata higher level rather than lower (3to 3.5 inches). Change directionseach time you mow, and keepthose mower blades sharpened.

Throw those clippings back intothe turf. (Make sure your clippingsdon’t make it out onto the streetand wind up washing down intothe street drains.) We’ll evaluatethe lawn for September renovationin mid-August.

• Fall is for planting, so takethe time in August to get yourplanting plans in place for the fall.Take advantage of local independ-ent garden stores expertise, whichoffer landscape design services,and get your landscape plans donenow. Or, if you need professionalinstallation as well, make anappointment with your landscapedesigner.

Gardening tasks as summer winds down to fall


Youngsters participatingin a recent art camp inMadisonville left their mark.Literally.

Participants in a morn-ingstART art camp at theMadisonville Arts Centerpainted a piano which is ondisplay at the front of thecenter, 5021 Whetsel Ave.

Not only is the piano beon display, but anyone whowould like to can play it aswell.

The students came upwith the designs for thepiano and then paintedthem.

“The entire conceptualidea of using dance andmusic was their idea,” saidcamp director AbbeyGauger, 18, of Mount Look-out.

One side of the piano ispainted in bright colors,graffiti and hip hop images.The other side is in moresubdued colors and has aballet theme.

A guitar image adornsthe keyboard.

“I think it’s nice peoplewill see the work we did,”said Lindsay Kaminer, 10,of Fairfax.

Kaminer came up withthe idea to paint a stereoimage on the piano bench.

Debbie Hill, executivedirector of the center, saidthe piano will be locatedoutdoors for six weeks andthen relocated inside thecenter’s gallery on a perma-nent basis.

Hill said the Fine ArtsFund donated pianos toseveral community arts cen-

ters throughout the region.These pianos were

donated to the centers inconjunction with an inter-national “Play Me, I’mYours” project by artist LukeJerram in which uprightpianos are placed through-out communities to encour-age an interest in playing.
