The Southern Kenton County CitizenGroup is preparing to survey residentsto get input on zoning policies and reg-ulations.
The group, made up of members whoare living in the rural unincorporatedpart of the county, works to share thepeople’s vision for their home.
South Kenton County is essentiallyan agricultural area with rural residen-tial sites, and according to the group’szoning committee chairwoman KathyDonohoue, zoning is an “integral part ofhow community develops.”
The zoning committee has workedclosely with Kenton County Planningand Development Services to researchwhat other rural and agricultural com-munities have done to plan for growthand preservation.
“We looked for types of zoning thatwould support an agricultural base,”Donohoue said. “For example, the beau-ty of the countryside is an important at-traction for agritourism. You don’t wantthe area to look like the suburbs.”
Donohoue said how you plan forgrowth is important. For instance,much of south Kenton County is knownfor its hilly terrain. Lots of concrete andmore rooftops increase water run-off.In the city and suburbs, that’s handledwith storm water drains. In the country,they rely largely on roadside ditches,trees and fields to absorb and filter wa-ter. When lots of earth is moved andtrees are taken down, there is a concernwith how watershed problems are han-dled, she said.
Watershed issues and reliance onseptic systems are two of several rea-sons that the group is presenting new

COVINGTON – Kenton County andGrant County cooperative extensionservices will host an informationalmeeting on the latest research beingdone on industrial hemp production inKentucky.
Because industrial hemp is a varietyof Cannabis sativa, there is legislationin both houses of Congress to excludehemp from the legal definition of mari-juana. Most legislators and both sena-tors from Kentucky are co-sponsoringbills to allow this production to moveforward, said Dan Allen, Kenton Coun-ty Extension agent for agriculture.
“This class is an informational classfor farmers and the community,” Allensaid. “There has been a large among ofinterest from across the state on indus-trial hemp.
“Industrial hemp was a huge crophere in Kentucky during the early tomid 1900s. Kentucky’s growing seasonand soils make us a great place to pro-duce hemp. The goal for having to pro-gram is to familiarize farmers and thepublic about this crop and the state ofthe current market demands of indus-trial hemp,” Allen said.
The program will be at 7 p.m. Thurs-day, Feb. 4, at the Kenton County Ex-tension Office, 10990 Marshall Road,Covington. To register, call 859-356-3155.
It will include the history and bota-ny of hemp, the economics of growingcommercial hemp, and results of the

2015 University of Ken-tucky research. The pro-gram will be presentedby David Williams, re-searcher with the Uni-versity of Kentucky De-partment of Plant andSoil Sciences.
“There’s a lot of misin-
formation about indus-trial hemp,” said ChrisAmmerman, GrantCounty Extension agentfor agriculture. “Thisprogram will help peopleunderstand how indus-trial hemp grows and thepotential markets for in-dustrial hemp products.”
According to the Ken-tucky Department of Ag-riculture website, theglobal market for indus-
trial hemp consists ofmore than 25,000 prod-ucts including textiles,food and beverages, oilsand cosmetics.
Canada has more than38,000 acres of industrialhemp in production. Ca-nadian exports of hempseed and hemp productswere estimated at morethan $10 million, withmost of those exportscoming to the U.S.
“At one time Ken-tucky led the nation inhemp production,” Al-len said. “The primaryproducts were textilesand rope products,however today’s varie-ties of hemp producehigh-quality oils, flourand other householditems. There is currentresearch on the possi-bility of livestock feedfrom hemp.”

zoning options in the sur-vey. Residents and landowners will be asked ifthey want to keep thepresent minimum 1-acreresidential zoning oradopt zoning that allowsfor new housing but withless density.
“Lack of sewers andnarrow country roadsmake traditional subur-ban-type developmentdifficult,” Donohouesaid. “In terms of resi-dential growth, we felt itwas best to market toour strengths: beautifulquiet countryside, lesstraffic and elbow room.A prospective home-owner who chooses tomake the investment ina rural setting and a cus-tom-built home doesn’twant to be surprised by ahousing developmentnext door in a fewyears.”
Donohoue said theyalso want to be fair toany land owners whowant to sell their land.
“Zoning needs tomaintain the integrity oftheir land value,” shesaid. The survey zoningoptions reflect whatwe’ve learned on this,also.
Donohoue said thegroup plans for the sur-vey to reach residents inearly February. Volun-teers are meeting at theDurr Extension Officeon Marshall Road at 9a.m. Friday, Jan. 29, tostuff and label envelops.A total of 3,678 surveyswill be mailed. Resi-dents can visitwww.kentoncounty.organd search South Ken-ton County CitizenGroup for more infor-mation.
The survey will alsoinclude questions aboutparks and recreation,agricultural economicgrowth, conservation ofnatural resources, Inter-net and cell coverage tosupport home business
and student education,as well as road and citi-zen safety needs.
Although officiallyformed in 2013, thegroup has been workingsince 2011 alongsidecounty planners who puttogether Direction 2030,a comprehensive planfor the future of KentonCounty. The plan wascompleted in September2014.
Now the group ismaking an effort tobreak down the plan’stasks to bring them tofruition, as well as main-tain a vision that in-cludes preservation ofthe rural landscape.
In 2014, Donohouesaid, members of thegroup reached out toother residents with asurvey to help create thevision for their commu-nity. According to Dono-houe, 3,000 residents re-ceived the survey andabout 1,000 responded.Results showed a clearmandate to keep land-scapes rural, land usefriendly to farming andother agricultural busi-nesses, and currentroads safe.
“The 2014 survey toldus what South Kentonsaw as important for ourrural community and itsfuture, as reflected inDirection 2030,” groupmember Suzann ParkerLeist said. “This secondsurvey will give us di-rection on how toachieve their vision.”
Fiscal Court Commis-sioner Beth Sewell hasworked closely with thegroup over the past twoyears.
“The Kenton CountyCommission and ad-ministration have beenvery responsive andsupportive of this grassroots organization’s ef-forts. They expect thesurvey results to pro-vide answers to serviceneeds across the countyand hope many citizenswill take advantage ofyet, another opportuni-ty, to share their opin-ions.”

Villa Madonna Academy is a hidden gem cel-ebrating a distinguished history in the com-munity. Since 1904, students have been part of a Benedictine tradition honoring the values of scholarship, service, stewardship, hospitality, respect and prayer. These values form the cor-nerstone of the community – a community of Faith, Knowledge and Service continually grow-ing in academic and athletic excellence.
The Villa community partners with parents, from the very first meeting, to provide a student-centered learning environment that challenges each child to reach his or her fullest potential. Villa’s dedicated faculty and staff ignite a love of learning through a curriculum based on the interdependence of all academic disciplines. Our 9:1 student-to-teacher ratio allows for in-dividualized instruction to meet the academic needs of each student through all grades.
Villa Madonna’s students are prepared to be global citizens through a world language pro-gram that starts in kindergarten; an exciting, expanding STEM program; and an engaging arts program. Teachers incorporate technology at all grade levels through the use of iPads, Smart-boards, and computer classes to engage the stu-dents and expand the curriculum. Students in grades 6-12 benefit from a 1:1 iPad program al-lowing all students the advantage of technology to experience learning beyond textbooks and classroom walls. And yet, Villa Madonna’s com-mitment to excellence in reading and writing has students practicing cursive and diagram-ming sentences to help them become confident communicators.
The benefits of a Villa education are realized in the well-rounded education one receives. The tangible results of the program include stan-dardized test scores consistently well above the national average at each grade level, and the millions of dollars awarded annually to its grad-uating seniors. Beyond test scores and scholar-ship dollars, students who leave Villa Madonna’s impressive campus do so with a sense of belong-ing to something bigger. They are young men and women committed to giving back. Villa’s students in grades K-12 log thousands of service hours annually as they live the Benedictine val-ues that are an integral part of the Villa educa-tion.
Villa Madonna is also a recognized school on the court and on the field. The athletic program be-gins in elementary school, with approximately 80 percent student participation. Villa’s inclu-sive teams allow all students an opportunity to learn and play while still being competitive. Multiple high school teams have gone on to state and regional competition, and graduating stu-dent athletes often participate at the collegiate level.
Villa Madonna’s students come from all over the Tristate with diverse religious, academic, and cultural backgrounds. Yet all are welcomed and challenged in the unique education model.
If you are exploring options for your child’s ed-ucation, whether for kindergarten, junior high, high school, or somewhere in between, we invite you to visit Villa. For more information about the school, please visit villamadonna.org or con-tact Janet Baugh, director of admissions, at 859-331-6333 ext. 139 to schedule a personal tour.

It is estimated that 90 million Americanssnore during sleep. While half of these peo-ple are “simple snorers,” the other halfmay have a serious sleep disorder called Ob-structive Sleep Apnea. Dr. Kitzmiller, of Cin-cinnati Dental Sleep Medicine, treats patientsevery day in his Milford office and shares an-swers to the most frequently asked questionshe receives.
Q: What is the difference between snoringand sleep apnea?A: “Snoring is the sound produced duringsleep by the vibration of the soft tissues in theupper airway (nose and throat). Obstructivesleep apnea is a medical condition where thesoft tissues of the throat collapse and blockthe airway during sleep. Most often, sleep ap-nea sufferers are reported to not only snore,but to stop breathing multiple times per hourand wake with a gasp.”
Q: Are there any health risks with sleep ap-nea?A: “Yes. In addition to excessive fatigue, un-treated sleep apnea can contribute to a num-ber of health conditions including high bloodpressure, diabetes, depression, weight gain,and morning headaches. Untreated sleep ap-nea has also been linked to heart attack andstroke.”
Q:How can I find out if it’s more than snoring?A: “Only a physician can diagnose sleep ap-nea. This is done with an overnight sleep test,either in a sleep facility or at home. After acomplimentary health screening in our officewe can guide you to an appropriate physicianfor further evaluation.”
Q:What are treatment options for snoring andsleep apnea?A: “Snoring solutions typically include weightloss and not sleeping on your back. Sleep ap-nea treatments included CPAP devices, OralAppliances, and surgery. In our office we treatour snoring and sleep apnea patients with anoral appliance, an FDA approved medical de-vice that fits over your teeth and holds thelower jaw forward, keeping the airway openwhile you sleep.”
Q: Does medical insurance cover any of thetreatment?A: “We have been very successful in using ourpatient’s medical insurance to cover a portionof the treatment fee. During the complimen-

COVINGTON – TheSecond Time AroundThrift Shop accepts hun-dreds of donations ofgently used itemsthroughout the year.
“We sort through thedonations and price themfor $1, $2, $3,” shop volun-teer manager CarolCleves said. It’s prettyroutine work and theitems are typically noth-ing out of the ordinary.
However, Clevescame across the donationof a framed picture ofMickey Mouse a fewmonths ago. In the bot-tom corner of the mattewas an autograph ad-dressed to “Bill.”
“It was difficult tomake out the signature,”Cleves said. “But I waspretty sure it said, ‘WaltDisney.’”
Cleves took the pic-ture home that night andasked her son to take alook.
He didn’t think the sig-nature said Walt Disney,but when he looked on-line, the signature ap-peared to match Dis-ney’s. Cleves’ son keptlooking and stumbledupon the website of popu-lar Disney collector andexpert Phil Sears. Searsoffered to look at theautograph and authenti-cate it for free. Soon afterthey sent him a photo ofthe autograph, he con-firmed it was genuineand offered to buy it for$2,500.
“I about fell out of mychair,” Cleves said.
That kind of money isjust what the strugglingthrift store needed tomake its average profitfor 2015. The SecondTime Around Thrift shop,located on Eastern Ave-nue in Covington, is anall-volunteer operation.Its proceeds benefit St.Elizabeth causes such asteen volunteer scholar-ships, comfort for infants
with neonatal abstinencesyndrome and the pertus-sis or whooping cough co-cooning program. Due toa lack of volunteers, thethrift shop has cut backon hours which has madea dent in profits.
Still, Cleves “didn’tfeel right” selling theautograph without the do-nor knowing its worth,she said.
The next day she con-tacted the donor, BethRedwine. Redwine’s fam-ily has a close relation-ship with the thrift shop.Her mother, Mary AnnMenke, helped to estab-lish the shop. Redwinesaid she didn’t know thevalue of the signature.The item was left to herafter the death of a familyfriend, Bill Wirthlin.
Wirthlin, of Florence,died in 2012 at age 79 af-ter a long battle with ce-rebral palsy. In hisyounger years, heformed a pen pal relation-ship with several people;Walt Disney was one ofthem, she said.
“He, with the help ofhis mother, had writtenletters to several celebri-ties,” Redwine said. “WaltDisney wrote back andtook a real interest inhim. Walt even invitedhim and his mother to behis guests at Disneylandin California. He gavethem the VIP treatment,
even taking them aroundthe park himself. Itmeant a lot to Bill. It wastruly the high point of hislife.”
When Redwine madethe donation of one ofWirthlin’s most preciousmemorabilia pieces, shesaid she had just hopedthat it would find its wayto someone who enjoyedDisney. She neverdreamed it would beworth what Phil Searswas offering. Redwinetold Cleves to sell theautograph and use theprofit to the support St.Elizabeth causes.
“It’s a great way to re-member a remarkableperson’s life,” Redwinesaid. “Bill was a goodman. The people hetouched, he did so in astrong way.”
Cleves said she isgrateful for Redwine andher family’s generosity.
“Because we had to beclosed so much last yearbecause of the shortageof volunteers, wewouldn’t have made ouraverage profit and beable to do so many goodthings,” Cleves said.“This donation means alot to the shop, truly.”
To continue operations,Cleves said The SecondTime Around Shop needsvolunteers, now more thanever. To find out how to be-
come a volunteer, visitstelizabeth.com.

COVINGTON - Ken-ton County Fiscal Courtformally fired golfcourse manager DanMoening during a spe-cial meeting Jan. 19.
In No-vember,Moeningwas firedby theCountyAdminis-trator JoeShriverafterTreasurer
Roy Cox found and in-vestigated irregular-ities in the public golfcourses’ books.
At the special meet-ing Judge-executiveKris Knochelmann saidMoening was terminat-ed for “violations of ad-ministrative policiesand procedures includ-ing but not limited to in-competency, inefficien-cy, neglect of duty, fail-ures of proper cash man-agement andinsubordination.”
Knochelmann de-clined further comment,but said the matter wasalso being turned over tothe Commonwealth’s At-torney Office for re-view.
Moening, who earneda salary of $52,031 pluscommission on pro-shopsales at about $30,000 an-nually, had been with thegolf courses most re-cently since 2011. A yearbefore that, after 18years with the countygolf courses, he was laidoff along with three oth-ers in a reorganization ofthe golf courses.
Moening appealedthat layoff in 2010, argu-ing it was a politicalmove, and in 2011 he washired again. And, in 2012,he was made generalmanager of the GolfCourses of Kenton Coun-ty.
Kenton County hasthree public courses,Fox Run, Pioneer andWillows in Independ-ence.

Inside the small kitchenof the Community BibleChurch in Independence,Melanie Gibson pourswith precision the dyenamed “oxblood” into a
small tub filled with water.The intense-colored dye
diffuses quickly.Donning surgical gloves,
Gibson works swiftly too. Shedips her long, spaghetti-likeskein – or bundle – of Merinoyarn into the water.
“This is always a popularcolorway,” Gibson said as shedips the wool into the dye. “Icall it Lady Mary from theBBC show ‘Downton Abbey.’ Itlooks like something shemight wear.”
Gibson is a telemetry tech-nician at a local hospital. Sheobserves heart monitors. Butin her spare time, she diesyarn. And her business A YarnWell Spun has a following.
“Her eye for color is sim-ply awesome,” said JanetHaney, owner of Knitwits inCrescent Springs. “You reallyhave to see her hand-dyedwool. The colors are beautiful.There is simply no compari-son to the big-box acrylicyarn. They make beautifulsocks and one-of-a-kind sweat-ers.”
Gibson considers her skeinher canvas, and the colors shemixes her medium. “Myfriend says I look like a madscientist when I mix the col-ors,” she said as she poureddye into plastic cups for askein of yarn to be be cured ina crockpot of vinegar-water.
Gibson, of Elsmere, an avidreader who enjoys hiking andtraveling, names her color-ways after the places she hasvisited, the book and moviecharacters who have inspiredher and the hues that havestirred her in nature.
Some of her popular colorsare Berries n’ Cream, MountRainier, Times Square andblackberry vine. There is MayDay Basket and “The FourSisters” inspired by LouisaMay Alcott’s book.
A deep blue skein gets thename Atlantis. And an aquaand blue mixed skein gets thename Smeagol’s Birthday,named after the infamouscharacter from “The Lord ofthe Rings.”
Gibson works with fiberfrom sturdy wool to silk andmany skeins are one of a kind.Recently, she fell in love withDaniel, her friend’s sheep.
“His sweet personality andbeautiful fleece is what in-spired me,” she said. “I decid-ed I wanted to support small,family-owned fiber farms andbusinesses.”
Gibson has named her lineDaniel & Ewe, which will belocal fleeces spun at a smallfamily-owned mill in NorthCarolina. You can see her yarnat www.ayarnwellspun.com.

FLORENCE – Nobodyon council said no to a nee-dle exchange for heroinusers last Tuesday.
Mayor Diane E. Whalensaid council needs to heara vote of support fromBoone County FiscalCourt before more discus-sion or taking a vote.
St. Elizabeth Health-care CEO Garren Colvinand Dr. Lynne M. Saddler,district director of healthat Northern KentuckyHealth Department,pitched the need for a nee-dle exchange at FlorenceCity Council’s Jan. 19meeting.
Colvin and Dr. Saddlersaid a needle exchange isneeded for public healthbecause of the dangersposed by shared needles.
“We are trying to pre-vent an HIV epidemicfrom happening in North-ern Kentucky,” Dr. Sad-dler said.
The health depart-ment’s plan is to operateexchanges at existinghealth centers in eachcounty in Covington, Flor-ence and Newport.
“I think the FiscalCourt has to approve itfirst,” Whalen said.
There is no reason forthe city to take action ifthere is not county sup-port, she said.
“I think if it’s going tofall in line and everybody’sgot to weigh in on this orwe’ve got it all wrong andit needs to start over,”Whalen said.
Whalen said putting aneedle exchange in Flor-ence’s health center iscause for concern.
“While we realize it is aregional problem, we havethe only health centerthat’s next to an estab-lished neighborhood,” shesaid.
Colvin said about halfof expected needle ex-change participants are al-ready coming to healthcenters for other servicesincluding pregnancy andHIV testing.
Colvin said the threehealth centers will split upservice for about 375 newhealth center clients ex-pected to come just forneedles.
Dr. Saddler said a nee-dle exchange puts heroinusers in contact with thehealth care system –which can lead to more ad-dicts seeking treatment.
“Otherwise, they’rejust out there using, over-dosing and going to theemergency room,” Sad-dler said.
Councilman Mel Car-roll said for many peopletalking about a clean nee-dle exchange is personaland not a hypothetical dis-cussion.
“I’m not saying no to it-,”Carroll said. “I’m sayingI want to know more aboutthis issue and I’m open todiscussion.”
Carroll said he dealtclosely with many fam-ilies and students dealingwith addictions.
“I have addiction in myfamily,” he said.
Carroll said he knowsaddiction’s impact on indi-viduals and community. Itwill take “a community-wide solution,” he said.Carroll said he wants tosee regional consensus.
“We would be remiss ifwe put our head in the sand
and thought this was an is-sue that only dealt withother people,” Carrollsaid.
The needle exchangewas one of the provisionsof a landmark heroin billto improve drug treat-ment and clamp down ondealers which was passedin March 2015 by the Ken-tucky legislature.
The bill requires threelevels of approval for sy-ringe exchange programs– Board of Health (whichpassed for Boone, Camp-bell, Grant and Kentoncounties on June 2015),city and county, said EmilyGresham Wherle, publicinformation administratorfor Northern KentuckyHealth Department. If the
program is located in anunincorporated area, ap-proval would come fromthe Board of Health andthe Fiscal Court.
The city of William-stown in Grant Countypassed a resolution ap-proving syringe exchangein August; but NorthernKentucky Health Depart-ment has not yet gotten ap-
proval from Grant CountyFiscal Court, she said.
“Our neighboringhealth department, ThreeRivers District, receivedapproval from the Pendle-ton County Fiscal Court,and is operating out of thePendleton County HealthCenter, which is in an unin-corporated area of thecounty,” Wherle said.

PARK HILLS – Co-vington Catholic HighSchool senior Josh Hil-dreth’s passion for tin-kering on a competitionrobot named “Chainsaw”knows few boundaries.
“I take it around ev-erywhere and on week-ends even,” Hildrethsaid. “The guys jokearound with me that I’mdating the robot.”
“Chainsaw” doesn’tcut anything. The namecame from an early de-sign that made the robot’swhirring motions looklike a chainsaw, Hildrethsaid.
“We decided to keepthe name,” he said.
Hildreth, of Alexan-dria, is one of 40 CovCathrobotics/engineeringclub students. The club istied to the school’s STEM(Science, Technology,Engineering and Math)program started last fall.
CovCath has 160 stu-dents taking two differ-ent STEM courses – 25percent of enrolled stu-dents.
Robotics club mem-bers will host studentsfrom around the regionfor an inaugural “Cov-Cath Colonel ClassicVEX Tournament” from9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Sat-urday, Feb. 6, at ThomasMore College’s Steiger-wald Hall.
CovCath has five ro-botics teams that have al-ready competed this yearagainst 91 teams in twodifferent competitions inShelbyville, Kentucky,and Elizabethtown, Ken-tucky.
Robotics club studentsspecialize in mechanicalengineering and pro-gramming, said STEMcoordinator and clubcoach Bob Lind.
During competition,students’ robots have twominutes to perform tasksautonomously at first,
and then with remote-control guidance. Thisyear’s task is to see how
many balls a robot cancatapult or pitch into ahoop-shaped hole.
“Chainsaw” uses a fly-wheel design to aim ballsat the hole similar to howballs come out of a bat-ting cage machine.Chainsaw can shoot adozen balls in the span ofa few seconds.
“We have several gearratios. The first gear ra-tio here is geared forspeed so when the motorspins around it makesthree revolutions thenthe wheel spins 49 revo-lutions,” Hildreth said.
Hildreth, his team’schief engineer, has ac-cepted an offer from Uni-versity of Louisville’sJ.B. Speed School of En-
gineering to pay for histuition for 5.5 years. It’senough time to get bothbachelor’s and master’sdegrees, Hildreth said.
Tinkering on “Chain-saw” at home and duringany free moments atschool is “a passion,” hesaid. Hildreth takes therobot and a backpackfilled with parts to Lind’sengineering class and toa Computer-Aided De-sign (CAD) class.
“I’m actually buildingthis robot in CAD and itgoes up to 1/1000th of aninch is the accuracy ofit,” he said.
Lind said CovCathSTEM courses taken byrobotics club studentsand others are taught in
partnership with nation-al-STEM curriculum pro-vider Project Lead theWay.
Courses are “hands-on” opportunities for stu-dents to learn a three-di-mensional modelingcomputer program andpractice principles of en-gineering, he said.
Students learn aboutgears and mechanicalsystems, robotics, bridgedesigns, hydraulics, elec-tronics and computerbreadboards. Bread-boards are devices forconstructing an electron-ic circuit without solder-ing a connection,
Math teacher Joe Gas-tenveld, another CovCathrobotics coach, said heand Lind mostly answerstudents’ questions.
“Most of this stuff is100 percent their idea,they’re building thethings, they’re program-ming them, they’re pick-ing the parts up,” Gasten-wald said.
Sophomore BrettSchomaker, of CrescentSprings, said he was in aLego robotics club ingrade school.
“I thought it was a lit-tle bit too simplistic so Istopped doing that,”Schomaker said.
Schomaker, lead pro-gramer for his roboticsteam, said he decided tosign up for the club assoon as he came to Cov-Cath as a freshman.
“I’ve always been in-terested in computers, sowhen I came here I sawrobotics and I was like,‘Oh, I should try thatout,’” he said.

Covington Latin School hasalways encouraged students topursue extracurricular inter-ests, even if that means startinga new club to explore their pas-sion.
This year, students have tak-en it a step further and their in-terest has sparked the additionof a new sport at CLS – archery.
Freshman Christian Schuet-ter has previous experience inthe sport, and his family was
able to connect Latin Schoolwith a pair of outstandingcoaches from the CincinnatiRecreation Commission, RobinBonavantura and Mikael Soto.
Bonavantura and Soto will beleading a group of nearly 20 stu-dents, grades seven through 12,through practice three days aweek.

JANUARY 28, 2016 • SOUTH KENTON RECORDER • 9ANEWS
I’m a softie when it comes to Mother Na-ture’s orphans. Especially where we live, atthe end of an old country road, and especiallyduring this frigid weather.
For the past several months we’ve beenvisited daily by a gray cat. “She” doesn’thang around the whole day, but we’ve noticedthe mice population in the garage this winteris zero.
During Sunday dinner the cat came to theback kitchen door. The grandkids peeked outto see. Will asked if she had a name. “No, wejust call her cat,” I told him. “I think Silky is a goodname,” Will said. So Silky it is.
The good thing about the name is it’s gender neu-tral so we’re safe if “she” turns out to be a “he.” Weusually give dry cat food, but today I gave her a bit ofsauteed ground beef when I was making this soup.
It’s the first time she allowed me to get closeenough to pet her – her way of saying thanks?
Tip from Rita’s KitchenGruyere is a creamy Swiss cheese worth
the price. Swap it out with Swiss if you need to.
Readers want to knowHow do I steep saffron?This spice is expensive. Place the threads
in a small amount of liquid for 10 minutes orso. The liquid will turn yellow. Add the liquid
to your recipe. Besides boosting flavor, steeping dis-tributes color more evenly.

Secret ingredient spicy 30-minute beefvegetable soup
I won’t pretend this is a new recipe. I’ve shared it before,but I always get requests to publish it again, particularly duringsoup weather.
So here it is, for Charlie, a Wyoming reader, and thatyoung couple I chatted with after church. I’ve changed therecipe a bit. This soup has a cult following. I’m not surprised.It’s really that good, and really that easy. Can you tell what thesecret ingredient is?
1-1/2 pounds lean ground beef (I used sirloin in the photorecipe)
1 heaping cup chopped yellow or white onion, not sweetonion
2 cloves garlic, minced1 jar chunky garden style pasta sauce2 cans low-sodium beef brothWater to taste (start with 1 or 2 soup cans of water and
go from there)10 ounce can tomatoes and chilies or 14.5 ounce diced
tomatoes if you don’t want it spicy1 pound or so frozen soup or mixed vegetables, thawed if
you have timeSeveral handfuls any fresh greensCheddar for garnish
Saute meat, onion and garlic together in pot until meat iscooked. Now add everything else but the greens. Bring to aboil and let simmer for about 30 minutes. Toss in greens andcook until just wilted, about a minute more.
Tip from Rita’s Kitchen: A potato masher works won-ders to break up the ground beef as it cooks.
Watch Rita! Check out my YouTube channel on my siteAbouteating.com to see me making the soup.
French onion soup with Gruyere croutons
I love this soup. It’s not complicated, just takes some timecaramelizing the onions. I use my food processor to slice them.
4-5 pounds large onions, sliced very thin1/2 to 1 stick butter6 cups low sodium beef broth or chicken broth8 slices French bread, sliced 1/2 inches, toasted on one
side1/2 pound Gruyere, grated
To toast bread: Brush very lightly with olive oil or spraywith olive oil spray. Run under broiler until golden on top, orbake in 400-degree oven.
Cook onions in butter over medium heat, stirring fre-quently, for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Add brothslowly, stirring constantly, until soup comes to a boil. Lower tosimmer, cover and cook 20 minutes. Season to taste. Fill ov-enproof bowls with soup. Place slice of bread, toasted sidedown, on top of each. Divide cheese among bread slices. Broiluntil cheese melts.
Keep warm with steamybowls of homemade soup

Last week’s questionWhat do you make of Gov.
Matt Bevin’s plan to dismantlekynect, Kentucky’s health ex-change?
“Horrible idea! There areover 300,000 citizens who nowcan see a doctor. Without Ky-nect they will be back to theemergency room which is themost expensive care. Andwhich all of us end up pay-ing.”
Edith Bentley, Cold Spring
I am dismayed by Gover-nor Bevin’s move to dismantle
the state’s successful healthinsurance exchange, kynect.Why in the world would wemake it harder for Kentuck-ians to access information andsign up for insurance by mov-ing them into the federal ex-change when our own is de-signed exclusively to meetour needs? Moreover, wherewill the estimated cost of $23million to dismantle kynectcome from? I see this asstrictly a political move, andnot something the governor isdoing for cost-savings or forthe benefit of the citizens ofKentucky. It is bad policy
perpetrated by a vindictiveand inexperienced chief exec-utive.

We arrived in Bremerha-ven, Germany, in August 1965after crossing the Atlantic onthe USNS Geiger, a Navytransport ship.
My family was moving toLandstuhl, Europe’s largestAmerican hospital, where my
dad wouldcontinue hiscareer as anArmy officerand psychiat-ric socialworker. I was11 years old,the middlechild of seven,though mysister Marywas starting
college in St. Louis so shedidn’t make this trek.
From Bremerhaven, wetraveled 500 kilometers bytrain to Frankfurt. We shareda train car with two elegantlydressed women who broke outflasks of what I imagined wasbrandy that early afternoon. Iwould learn later, mainly frommy piano teacher Frau Rude-ka, that taking sips at an ap-pointed time was common(though in her case it mighthave stemmed from my pianoplaying).
The Frankfurt train stationwas an architectural marvel.We had our first German meal:brats, broetchen and a carbon-ated lemon drink called limo-nade. It was wonderful.
Waiting for our train toLandstuhl, we had a conve-nient and welcoming place towait, the USO. In retrospect it
was awfully nice for my momand dad, travel orders in handand six bewildered Armybrats in tow, to decompressand chat with USO volunteersabout what to expect next onour journey.
Let me take this opportuni-ty to congratulate the USO onits 75th anniversary on Feb. 4,2016.
Kathy Williams, a volun-teer, is manager of the USOCenter at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Interna-tional Airport. She shared withme some background andhistory of the United ServiceOrganizations for NationalDefense.
President Franklin DelanoRoosevelt, seeing the inevita-ble involvement of the UnitedStates in World War II, on Feb.4, 1941, challenged six privateorganizations – the YMCA,YWCA, National CatholicCommunity Service, the Na-tional Jewish Welfare Board,the Traveler’s Aid Associationand the Salvation Army – tocreate an organization thatwould keep service membersin touch with the bonds offamily and comforts of home,no matter where or underwhat conditions they served.
Roosevelt chose Thomas E.Dewey to serve as the firstUSO Campaign Chairman.Dewey resigned the post tobecome governor of New Yorkand Roosevelt soon selectedone of his political rivals as thesecond USO Campaign Chair-man, setting a tone of non-partisan unity. Prescott S.
Bush, eventual father of onepresident, grandfather ofanother, rallied Americansaround the cause of the USOand raised millions of dollarsto support its growth.
Today, with 600 employeesand 30,000 volunteers, Kathysaid, the USO provides pro-grams, entertainment andservices at nearly 200 USOlocations worldwide includingAfghanistan, Kuwait, UnitedArab Emirates, Germany,Italy, Japan, Guam, SouthKorea, Djibouti and the UnitedStates. USO Centers werevisited more than 7 milliontimes by service members andtheir families in 2014.
FDR indeed had great fore-sight to create the USO in 1941.
“Not by machines alone willwe win the war,” he said.

It’s been 10 months sinceGov. Steve Beshear signed theheroin reform bill, Senate Bill192, into law. One measure ofthe law was to allow, for thefirst time ever in Kentucky,operation of syringe accessexchange programs to reducethe threat of infectious dis-eases spread by intravenousdrug use.
In the 10 months since thelaw was passed, staff at theNorthern Kentucky HealthDepartment have broughttogether partners from thecommunity and resources fromacross the country to develop amodel syringe access exchangeprogram. The proposed pro-gram is both efficient and opti-mizes the public health impactof such services – their abilityto connect IV drug users to thehealth care system and addic-tions treatment. It would oper-ate with existing staff at thehealth department’s countyhealth centers.
It received unanimous ap-proval from the District Boardof Health. The program hasfunding in place for its firstyear of operation and staffhave received much of therequired training.
In the 10 months since thelaw was passed, elected offi-cials in Louisville, Lexingtonand Pendleton County haveapproved such programs inthose areas, and public healthofficials have implementedthem. Louisville’s programopened in June, Lexington andPendleton County’s began inSeptember.
In the 10 months since thelaw was passed, Northern Ken-tucky’s IV drug users havecontinued to share needles. Asurvey conducted by the healthdepartment over the summerfound that more than 85 per-cent of users surveyed shareneedles at least some of thetime. Even more concerning,local IV drug users indicatedthat they often share needlesuntil they break or are too dullto use.
Since the law was passed,almost 800 people in NorthernKentucky have been diagnosedwith hepatitis C and more than100 have been diagnosed withhepatitis B. Northern Kentuckywas featured in a New YorkTimes article in July about itshepatitis C rates, which are thehighest in the nation. While asyringe access exchange pro-gram won’t eliminate theseviruses, it can reduce theirspread.
In the 10 months since thelaw was passed, we have notseen a rise in HIV cases, ashappened in Scott County, Indi-ana, last spring. But the threatexists. Our window of opportu-nity to prevent such an out-break could close at any time.
In the 10 months since thelaw was passed, the healthdepartment has educated elect-ed officials in several NorthernKentucky cities and countiesabout this issue. The approvalof both the city and county isrequired for a program to oper-ate. Only one group –Willliam-stown City Council – has con-sidered syringe access ex-change program and voted infavor, unanimously. WithoutGrant County’s approval,though, a program can’t oper-ate.
It seems that a public healthissue, protecting Northern
Kentuckiansfrom thespread of in-fectious dis-ease, has be-come political.That’s a shame.
Syringeaccess ex-change pro-grams havebeen operatingin other partsof the country
for almost 30 years. Time andagain, they have been shown topositively impact the health ofthe community. Such programsdo not encourage people tostart using drugs or increasetheir use. They do not increasecrime in the neighborhoods inwhich they operate, either.
These programs are a triedand true public health interven-tion to reduce the burden of IVdrug use. Besides stopping thespread of disease, syringe ac-cess exchange programs canconnect IV drug users withtreatment programs. They canprovide other health serviceslike immunizations, pregnancytesting and overdose preven-tion kits. Syringe access ex-change programs are cost ef-fective. For every $1 invested,up to $7 is saved in preventionof HIV treatment costs alone.
When faced with outbreaksof communicable disease, pub-lic health officials look to in-terventions to stop the spread.With the passage of SB 192 lastMarch, we now have access toa tool to stop some of the hor-rendous impacts of the heroinepidemic on our community.It’s a tool we desperately needin Northern Kentucky. After 10months of education and dis-cussion, it’s time we put publichealth first and implement asyringe access exchange pro-gram in Northern Kentucky.

Last year we discussedliability concerns involvingthe removal of snow and icebut I thought it important tore-examine this issue againthis year after some signifi-cant changes in the commonlaw were made by the Ken-tucky Supreme Court in Sep-tember of last year.
Previously there was noliability for property ownerswho took no action to cleartheir sidewalks and drive-ways. This is no longer thecase.
In Kentucky, negligenceactions – like slips and falls asa result of snow and ice – aredetermined based on compar-ative fault. Each party thatmay be responsible is attrib-uted a percentage of the fault
for the dam-age that oc-curred. Thisallows aninjured per-son to recovereven if thatperson is 99percent atfault for in-jury to him-self or herself.
For ex-ample, should
you have a pothole in yoursidewalk that is unseen be-cause of snow and a personinjures themselves as a result,you may be liable. Of course,you could still defend sayingthat the injured person is atfault because of not takingdue care in the snow. None-
theless, as the property own-er, if you are found even 1percent at fault, you may haveto pay damages. Those dam-ages however, would be basedon the percentage of fault.
Lastly, property ownersmay also want to check localordinances as more and morecities, such as Louisville, haveadopted snow removal ordi-nances for sidewalks.

LUDLOW - Ludlow chal-lenged Holy Cross in the quar-terfinals of the Ninth RegionAll “A” Classic boys basket-ball tournament and came upshort, 62-55, Jan. 18.
Senior center MarcusRoark was a force at both endsin the first half for Ludlow.His length made a differenceon defense and on the glass,and his shooting touch on of-fense caused matchup prob-lems for the Indians. He ledthe Panthers with 22 points inthe loss.
“He loves (the spotlight),”Ludlow head coach RandyWofford said. “When he thinkshe’s the best player in thegym, he usually is. Sometimeswe have to light a fire underhim, but tonight he was ready.Some of our seniors reallystepped it up in this one.”
Hamilton Scott’s finish intransition with 4:30 to play inthe second quarter put the In-dians ahead by two posses-sions for the first time, 21-16.However, Ludlow wouldn’t goaway. Michael Camarena’sand-one finish just beforehalftime brought the Panthersback within one, 28-27.
That remained a theme –every time Holy Cross built
some momentum, Ludlowcame up with a big bucket tokeep it close. “Our seniorswere just awesome tonight,”Wofford said. “It came downall the way to the end. Our kidsbattled. We told our seniorsbeforehand that it was theirlast All ‘A’ and they bettergive it all they got – and theykind of turned it on tonight.We just got tired at the endand couldn’t make enoughshots.”
Junior big man DerrickBarnes sparked Holy Cross’offense in the third quarter byusing his strength inside. Af-ter being tied 38-38 with lessthan two minutes to play in thethird, Leighton Schrandscored, and Volpenhein fol-lowed with a finish in transi-tion to give the Indians a 42-38lead going into the fourthquarter.
Ludlow is 8-11 with all thewins coming in conferenceplay. Ludlow is 8-0 and unde-feated in Division III of theNorthern Kentucky AthleticConference for a second-straight season. The Panthershave their key seeding gamesin the 34th District remaining,hosting Lloyd Jan. 29, going toSt. Henry Feb. 3 and hostingDixie Heights Feb. 6.

Ludlow’s Marcus Roark puts up a shot.
In a game with plenty of fam-ily ties between head coachesand their star players, it was theson of a former collegiate coachcarrying the day.
Holy Cross senior Tyler Be-zold scored a game-high 29points to lift the Indians to a 66-59 win over Newport in a quar-terfinal game of the Ninth Re-gion All “A” Classic tournamentJan. 20.
Bezold set the tone with 10points in the first quarter and 17overall in the half.
“He was ready to play to-night,” said HC head coachRyan Schrand. “When he’s feel-ing like that, he does some reallygood things. He’s a tough guard,he can play outside or in. Theydidn’t have anybody to match upwith him. It was a great night forhim.”
Bezold is the son of formerNKU head coach David Bezold.Schrand has two sons who playfor the Indians in senior guardLeighton and sophomore guardNolan, and Newport senior Eth-an Snapp, son of head coachRod, is the Wildcats’ leadingscorer for the year.
Holy Cross rolled over Belle-vue in the semis.
In the finals, Holy Cross lost70-52 to Newport Central Catho-lic, who won its fourth straightregional title and denied the In-dians their first since their 2012state championship run.
Things turned early in thesecond period. Ben Weyer hit a3-pointer on NCC’s first posses-sion to put NewCath up 18-15. Aminute into the period, Bezoldwent down at midcourt follow-ing a collision with a NewCathplayer. Bezold was unable to putany weight on his right ankle
and was helped off the court. Hewas on crutches the rest of thegame.
“I know it was a big letdownfor them when Bezold got hurt,”Dawn said. “He’s a big factor.They really stepped up andplayed hard after that but even-tually it wears on you. He doesso many things for them thatwhen you take him out, it’stough. He handles the ball, heshoots the ball. He does every-thing for them.”
When Tyler was a little kid,he would tag along to practiceswith the Norse. Then, afterpractice was over, he would gethis shots up.
“I was always in the gym,running around shootingjumpers when I was little,” Be-zold said. “I was always trying toimitate my dad’s players. He’dtell me, ‘This guy is really goodat this,’ so I’d try to watch himduring their practice and thentry to copy his moves after prac-tice. Or if he said this guy is goodat shooting, then I’d try to takesomething from that players’shooting form. He’s always hadme in the gym.”
All those shots and all thattime spent working in the gymover the years turned Bezold

Here are some winningnumbers you might havemissed: 41, 54, 39, 45, 64, 60.
They may look like powerball numbers. But, in fact,they are victory margins bythe Holmes girls’ basketballteam, a strong contender forthe Ninth Region tournamentchampionship in March.
Here’s another set of num-bers: 21, 30, 30, 17, 20, 30.
They are the lowest pointtotals the Bulldogs have al-lowed this season on the wayto a 17-2 start, the best recordin the region. Holmes isranked No. 1 in The EnquirerNorthern Kentucky coaches’poll.
“It’s our press. We like topressure people, and we’vebeen successful with it,”coach Tony Perkins said. “We
start out man-to-man and gofull court, and we’ll stay in itthe whole game or three quar-ters of it.”
The average score of aHolmes basketball game is 64-40. The offensive total, pad-ded by points off turnovers, isthe region’s highest. The de-fensive total is among the low-est. The 24-point average vic-tory margin is among the wid-est in the state.
“It’s actually fun. The girlslike to play hard,” seniorguard Jynea Harris said of theteam’s willingness to play de-fense. She leads the balancedBulldogs with 13 points pergame, and recently surpassed1,000 career points. “That’swhat we work on the most inpractice, is defense. It’s a bigpart of who we are.”
The Bulldogs have smart,resourceful students givingtheir all for the coach. The
team-wide grade-point aver-age last semester was 3.51.The Bulldogs possess greatathletes. Many play othersports. They boast all-region-caliber basketball players, in-cluding Harris, fellow collegerecruit and rebounding lead-er Tyrah McClendon-Engle-mon, Jaynice Stovall and LailaJohnson.
They are supported by abench that remains solid de-spite the loss of Mo Gulley to aseason-ending knee injury.Maurissa Brown has steppedin for Gulley and held herown.
“We can’t just walk the ballup and play a H-O-R-S-Egame, and I’ve alwayspressed if I had the peoplewho are quick,” Perkins said.“The girls are very quick, andthey’re smart and they’re con-fident. They know what to doto fluster people.”

Cutter is Builder of the Year
It doesn’t matterwhere you look on theInternet these days. Thescammers are out therehoping to get your atten-
tion.Jason,
of GreaterCincinnati,wrote me:“A ladyand herhusbandare livingoff robbinggood peo-ple – andmaybe
exposing them will keepthem from getting otherpeople.”
Jason says he sawyard sales posted bythese people on severalwebsites. He writes,“They have multiple adstrying to sell everythingfrom purebred puppies tocars and TVs. Recentlythey sold me a brokenPlaystation 3. It didn’twork and after trying tocontact them I wasblocked and ignored.”
Jason says after hereported the sellers to thewebsite on which hebought the unit, he “start-ed hearing about howthey have scammedmany young people intobuying broken or falselyadvertised items.”
Ohio Attorney General
Mike DeWine says in2015 his office receivedabout 30 complaints frompeople who said theybought a puppy or otherpet online, but neverreceived anything inreturn. The average lossto consumers was about$1,200.
As was the case withJason, the key to stoppingthis fraud is to ask to seethe item being sold inperson before you makeany payments. Just see-ing a picture of the itemor the puppy online is notenough to protect youfrom these scammers.
According to DeWine,“In a typical puppy scama consumer finds an adfor a puppy online. Theconsumer communicateswith the seller, agrees tobuy the puppy and even-tually wires a few hun-dred dollars to have thepuppy delivered.”
Rather than receivingthe puppy the consumergets a demand for moremoney either to pay forinsurance or transporta-
tion costs. If the consum-er doesn’t pay the sellermay threaten to turn himin for animal abuse.
Research any breed-ers and sellers carefullybefore you agree to buyanything. Remember,Jason says when he did alittle checking he startedhearing about many oth-ers who were alsoscammed. If you can’tfind anything about abreeder you need to beskeptical because theattorney general sayssome scam artists changenames regularly to trickconsumers.
When it comes to pup-pies, be sure to see it firstand try to take it to anindependent veterinarianfor a health exam beforeagreeing to buy it. Final-ly, never wire money to astranger because it isnext to impossible to getit back if there’s a fraud.

With low temperatures andsnowy conditions around thestate, many Kentuckians couldbe exposed to harsh winter ele-ments. To prepare for these con-ditions, Kentucky Departmentfor Public Health (DPH) offi-cials are emphasizing the im-portance of limiting exposure tothe cold and taking other neces-sary steps to prevent hypother-mia.
Meanwhile, parents andcaregivers of infants are alsoadvised to follow safe sleeppractices to keep infants warm,in order to help prevent injuryor infant deaths.
“Cold weather creates nu-merous potential public healthconcerns including hypother-mia, carbon monoxide exposureand infant safety,” said Dr.Kraig Humbaugh, senior depu-ty commissioner for DPH. “Wehope all Kentuckians will takesome time to learn how to pre-vent these serious, and possiblyfatal, health threats.”
HypothermiaHypothermia occurs when
an individual’s body temper-ature drops below what is nec-essary to achieve normal me-tabolism and other bodily func-tions.
In severe cases or when thebody is not warmed properly,death can result.
People who aren’t sufficient-ly prepared for cold weather ex-posures are at an increased riskfor the condition. To prevent hy-pothermia, DPH advises thatKentuckians:
» Wear appropriate clothing.Layer clothes made of syntheticand wool fabrics, which are bestfor keeping warm. Always re-member to wear hats, coats,scarves and gloves.
» Avoid consuming alcoholif outdoors. Alcohol can actual-ly speed the loss of heat fromthe body.
» Avoid overexertion fromactivities that cause excessivesweat. This can lead to dampclothing, which causes chills.
» Stay as dry as possible.Individuals working outside
during this time of year shouldpay extra attention to theseguidelines, particularly thosesusceptible to overexertion.Symptoms of hypothermia in-clude shivering, altered speechpattern, abnormally slow rateof breathing, cold pale skin andlethargy. Seek medical atten-tion if you or a loved one experi-ences the signs of hypothermia.
Carbon MonoxidePoisoning
Often, in times of heavysnow and ice, power outagescan occur and individuals mustutilize alternative heat sourcesto heat their homes, increasing
the possibility for exposure todangerous levels of carbonmonoxide. Items such as porta-ble generators, propane gasstoves and ovens heated withgasoline all have been used in-appropriately as indoor heatingsources, which can lead to car-bon monoxide poisoning as car-bon monoxide is a by-product ofburning carbon-based fuels.DPH advises taking steps toprevent carbon monoxide poi-soning by following guidelinesfrom the National Center forEnvironmental Health:
» Don’t use a generator,charcoal grill, camp stove orother gasoline or charcoal-burning device inside yourhome, basement or garage, ornear a window.
» Don’t run a car or truck in-side a garage attached to yourhouse, even if you leave the
door open.» Don’t burn anything in a
stove or fireplace that isn’tproperly vented.
» Don’t heat your house witha gas oven.
Carbon monoxide is a color-less, odorless gas. Seek immedi-ate medical attention if you sus-pect carbon monoxide poison-ing. Early symptoms includeheadache, nausea, vomiting andfatigue. Also be sure to install abattery-operated carbon mon-oxide detector in your home andreplace the battery when youchange the time on your clockseach spring and fall for daylightsavings time.
“Carbon monoxide poisoningis deadly and should be takenseriously,” said Dr. Humbaugh.“We urge Kentuckians to takesteps to prevent exposure tocarbon monoxide and avoid in-appropriate heating sources in-doors, such as propane heatersand charcoal grills. It can be amatter of life or death.”
If you are experiencingsymptoms of carbon monoxidepoisoning or if you have ques-tions, call the Kentucky Region-al Poison Control Center at (800)222-1222. For more informationabout preventing carbon mon-oxide poisoning, seehttp://www.cdc.gov/co/.
Infant Safe SleepIn general, parents and care-
givers should follow the ABCsof safe sleep - Alone, on theirBack and in a Clean, Clear Crib.Winter months prevent a differ-ent – but very serious – threatfor babies when parents andcaregivers resort to using un-safe sleep practices in an effortto keep babies warm.
“We realize parents andcaregivers are often acting withgood intentions, but bed-shar-ing and using blankets or addedbedding to keep an infant warmare considered unsafe practices
and put a baby at risk for inju-ries and even death,” said Dr.Ruth Shepherd, director of theDPH Division of Maternal andChild Health. “Always followthe principles of safe sleep. Ifthe low temperatures are a con-cern, please follow these rec-ommended guidelines to keepyour baby warm – and safe – thiswinter.”
Here are a few tips to for safesleep during the winter:
» For added warmth, a babycan be dressed in a one-piecepajama or wearable blanket.Wearable blankets can be lay-ered over undershirts or onesie.Do not let a baby get too hot byoverdressing them or wrappingthem in heavy blankets.
» Keep the baby’s room at acomfortable temperature.Don’t overheat the room.
» Do not put a hat on your ba-by to sleep; there is a risk the hatcould slip down, covering thebaby’s face.
» If a blanket must be used tokeep a baby warm, make surethe baby’s feet are at the bottomof the crib and the blanket istucked in around the mattress.The blanket should be no higherthan the baby’s chest with thebaby’s arms out.
» Keep all portable heatersaway from the baby and baby’ssleep area. The baby can over-heat if too close to a heater, re-ceive burns or become tangledup in cords of small electricheaters.
More information about safesleep practices can be found atthe SafeSleep Kentucky web-sitehttp://www.safesleepky.org/.The information is part of astatewide campaign aimed atparents, caregivers, health careproviders, advocates and othersin the childcare community tostress the importance of safesleep practices in the preven-tion of infant deaths.

From the recentevents in Paris, France,and San Bernardino,California, talk of terror-ism and violence is thereevery time you turn onthe news. As hard as it isfor us as adults to makesense of these senselessacts, it’s even harder forchildren to do so. Talkingto your children aboutterrorism, violence andwar is not easy, but it cango a long way in makingthem feel safe, secureand loved.
Ways you can helpyour child will be differ-ent based on your child’sage, knowledge of thesituation and uniquepersonality.
Try to limit news foot-age of disturbing images,as these can cause in-creased anxiety andsadness, especially inyounger children. If youfind your child in frontof the television whendisturbing footage isbeing aired, remain calm
and tryto taketheirattentionelse-where.Possiblediver-sionsincludeofferingto playwiththem,
asking them about theirday or reading a booktogether.
Always be willing tolisten to and answer yourchild’s questions butrealize not every childwill want to talk aboutthe subject. Allow themto bring it up in their owntime. Don’t force chil-dren to talk about theevents until they areready.
When the subject isbrought up, try your bestto correctly and honestlyanswer your child’s ques-tions. Talk about the
subject in terms of“harmful acts” ratherthan “evil people,” as thiscan help minimizestereotypes of a partic-ular group of people.Remind children thatmost people are good anddo not believe acts ofviolence solve problems.Ask your child to re-member a specific mo-ment when someone waskind to them or to yourfamily.
While you can’t prom-ise your children thatthese events will neverhappen in their commu-nity or affect people theyknow, you can reassurethem that there are peo-ple who are doing theirbest to ensure their safe-ty – people like policeofficers, firemen andgovernment officialswho work to keep every-one safe.

Individualswhose siblingshave died whileserving in the U.S.Armed Forcesmay now applyfor a Gold StarSibling licenseplate thanks, inpart, to legislationpassed in the 2015Regular Sessionof the General As-sembly.
House Bill 209, whichpassed both chambersunanimously, expandsthe Gold Star plate eligi-bility to siblings of fallenheroes. Until this legisla-tion, only parents andspouses of the deceasedwere entitled to apply.
“We honor our fallenheroes by taking care ofthe loved ones they leavebehind,” said Gov. MattBevin, a U.S. Army veter-an. “The Gold Star Sib-ling license plate re-minds us of the sacrificeof the entire family. Iwould ask all Kentuck-ians to show proper re-spect and gratitude tothose who display GoldStar license plates.”
“We can never thankthese families enough fortheir sacrifice,” said Lt.Gov. Jenean Hampton, aU.S. Air Force veteran.“What a tremendous trib-ute to our fallen heroes toallow siblings to honortheir loved ones with thisspecialty plate.”
“We are grateful to theKentucky Transporta-tion Cabinet for helpingus develop and offer a li-cense plate that recogniz-
es our Kentucky GoldStar Siblings. We encour-age everyone who sees avehicle with one of theseplates to take a momentto think about the sacri-fice made for our coun-try,” said HeatherFrench Henry, commis-sioner of the KentuckyDepartment of VeteransAffairs.
“I am honored to havesponsored HB 209, whichallows a person whosesibling died while serv-ing the country in theUnited States ArmedForces, to pay specialtribute to his/her siblingby purchasing a GoldStar Sibling license plate.A constituent broughtthis to my attention, andthe bill’s co-sponsor, For-mer Representative Ta-nya Pullin and I had 100percent bipartisan sup-port to achieve passageof the bill,” said Rep.Diane St. Onge, of Lake-side Park. “It is a reflec-tion of the true commit-ment and reverence thecommonwealth has forour military men, wom-en, and families.”
To receive the plate, aGold Star Sibling Affida-
vit must be com-pleted and submit-ted to the Ken-tucky Departmentof Veterans Af-fairs. The KDVAwill confirm eligi-bility and provide aletter of qualifica-tion directly to thecounty clerk officeon behalf of the li-cense plate appli-
cant. The initial cost of this
plate is $31, which in-cludes a $10 mandatorycontribution to the Veter-ans’ Program Trust Fund.Each annual renewal is$26 with a $5 mandatorycontribution fee. Theplate is available for pas-senger vehicles and mo-torcycles.
The inaugural GoldStar plate was issued inApril 2006 during a cere-mony in the Capitol Ro-tunda honoring Gold StarMothers. Since the startof this program throughDecember 2015, 136mothers, fathers andspouses of fallen Ken-tuckians have receivedGold Star license plates.
