NKY RUGBY TEAM OFFERSFULL-CONTACT FUN

COLD SPRING — NorthernKentucky’s rugby fans don’thave far to go to catch a scrumon the pitch.

The Northern KentuckyGrubs Rugby Football Clubpractice the traditional full-contact sport each Thursdayevening on the pitch, or field, atDonald E. Cline Elementary onEast Alexandria Pike.

They’ll ruck, which is whentwo players compete for theball, and probably scrum,which is a contest between bothteams forpossessionof theball.

Although the Grubs havebeen playing for 10 years –founded by Jamie Glahn,George Ward and Kent Wells –this fall season is their first as asocial club after several yearsin competitive play.

“As a social club, we play asmuch and as often as we want,”said Jim Brewer, who’s been onthe team since 2010. “As a com-petitive team, there was a nine-game schedule. Basically, now,we practice what we need towin.”

Brewer, an Alexandria resi-dent, said he started playingrugby in 2010 with the Grubs,because it was “really the onlyoption for adult contact sportsaround here.”

“It’s accessible and anyonecan do it. It’s fun,” he said.

Brewer said the team hasmembers from Boone, Camp-

bell and Kenton counties. Theteam is all-male, and playerscan be 15 years old or older.

Watching the matches isfree. When they play on theirhomepitch inColdSpring, spec-tators can bring their own bev-erages, but those over 21 couldbe invited to have a beer fromthe keg along with the team.

TheGrubs schedule is onlineon Facebook, and the club alsomaintains Twitter and Insta-gram accounts.

The club has two games

scheduled in September, onSat-urday, Sept. 13, against the OldBoysat theSaddleClub inCampSprings, and on Saturday, Sept.27, against the Cast Aways inColumbus, Ohio.

They currently have 17members, and 15 players takethe field at a time.

“Rugby is a mix of soccerand football and wrestling,”said Glahn, of Alexandria.“Muchlikesoccer,youhavefor-wards and backs, but it’s oppo-site. In soccer, the forwards are

FORT WRIGHT — Navycorpsmen like Charles“Dan” Daniel weren’t giv-en weapons in World WarII. Instead, their role wasto protect the health andsafety of fellow shipmatesandMarines on the battle-field. More recently, the90-year-old retired hospi-tal administrator has got-ten used to fighting.

Daniel spent the pasttwoyearsbattlingtohonor

the memories of thoselargely unsung heroes.

He joined local andstate dignitaries when asection of U.S. 25, or DixieHighway, was dedicatedas the U.S. Navy HospitalCorpsman Highway onSept. 3.Hesaid thededica-tionwasonlypossiblewithhelp from state Sen. ChrisMcDaniel, R-Taylor Mill;state Rep. Diane St. Onge,R-LakesidePark;andNan-cy Wood, public informa-tion officer for the Ken-tucky Transportation Cab-

inet Dis-trict 6.

“Acrossthe coun-try, hereand there,are memo-rials to in-dividual

corpsmen, but there is nonational monument dedi-cated to all hospital corps-men,” said Daniel. “Notuntil now.”

Approximately a halfmile of Dixie Highway,from near Hilton Drive

southward to RivardDrive, will be dedicated tohonor all Navy hospitalcorpsmen who haveserved since 1775.

According to Daniel,Navy corpsmen haveearned 22 Medals of Hon-or, 174 Navy Crosses, 946Silver Stars, 1,582 BronzeStars and more than 6,000Purple Hearts since theUnited States became anindependent country,makinghospitalcorpsmanthemost decorated rate inthe U.S. Navy and the Na-

vy Hospital Corps themost decorated corps ofany service in World WarII, based on percentage ofpersonnel.

“Anywhere a Marine isin danger, a Navy Corps-man is there,” saidDaniel.“Corpsmen are the mostdecorated, most awardedand most ignored in all oftheUnited Statesmilitary.That really got to me.”

“It’s staggering, hon-estly, to hear how manyunarmed corpsman in themedical field lost their

lives in war over time,”said Fort Wright MayorJoe Nienaber Jr.

“Everyone who servedas a corpsman, to me, is ahero,” said Daniel. “Theyput themselves betweentheirpatientandthelineoffire. You’ll find that manycorpsmenwere shot in theback while treating an in-jured Marine. That suresounds like a hero to me.”

Fire departmentChief Mark Bailey said

he hopes to make a deci-sion on hiring a new fire-fighter/paramedic by theend of September.

“We’ve conducted in-terviews on five candi-dates for the fire depart-ment and I think we havefive quality candidates,”Bailey said at the Sept. 2council meeting.

The other candidatesinterviews will be placedon a list of eligible peopleif another opening comesup in the next two years,

he said.The June 1 retirement

ofCapt.GregSchultz,whowas with the departmentfor 21.5 years, created theopen position. In responseto Schultz’s retirement,Bailey promoted JeffParker to captain at theJune 16 council meeting.Bailey also promotedTammy Webster to lieu-tenant at the same June16meeting.

Police departmentChief of Police Mike

Daly said two policerecruits were hired Aug.18inresponsetotheretire-ments of Lt. Ken Fecherand Sgt. Dean Windgas-sen. Both Fecher andWindgassen retired Aug.1. Fecher was with the de-partment for 24years, andWindgassen was with thedepartment for 17 years.The department was ableto speed up the hiringprocess to get two newrecruits into the academy,Daly said at the June 2council meeting.

Daniel Cropper, a resi-dent of Fort Thomas, andBrandon Laffin, a Cincin-nati resident, are the two

new recruits who are nowin their third week in thestate’s 18-week policeacademy, he said.

the fast, quick guys, andin rugby, they’re the slowbiggerguys.Backs in soc-cer are the slow defend-ers, and, in rugby thoseare the opposite. We havebig slow forwards.”

He said he helped startthe club in 2004 and hadalready been playing thesport for 10 years.

“I’ve been doing this along time. I played withdifferent teams in Cincin-nati because there wasn’t

one in Northern Ken-tucky,” said Glahn.

He left the sport whenhe started a family, andrecently got involvedagain.

Tony Deal, of Latonia,said he started playingrugby while he was in theMarine Corps.

“I was never into thetypical sports and that al-ternative aspect to rugbyreally appealed tome,” hesaid.

“My favorite partabout playing is that thisis a total team sport. Ittakes everyone on theteam to drive the ball

down the pitch.”“People think it’s bru-

tal because it’s full-oncontact with no pads,”Glahn said. “Peopledogethurt, but not all the time.The most common injuryis a broken clavicle.Sometimes you have afew bruised ribs. Therearen’t a lot of knee inju-ries in rugby as there arein other sports like foot-ball. The thing that’s niceabout playing socially isthat you can do what youcan do.”

Class is officially in sessionand students in Kentucky havesome big changes coming theirway.

Most aren’t immediately ob-vious, like a new school buildingor different school uniforms.

Most are policy changes stu-dents will barely notice, but

promise to have a big impact ontheir education.

» Teacher evaluations: ForKentucky teachers, this will bethe biggest change.

Technically called the “Pro-fessional Growth and Effective-ness System” (PGES), the newteacher evaluations took Ken-tucky four years to craft. Now,insteadofeachdistricthavingitsown system to evaluate teach-ers, all will follow a statewidemodel. This is the first year forfull implementation. Resultswon’t be used for hiring/firingdecisions until next year.

Themain difference between

thePGESandtheoldevaluationsis that these include “studentgrowth” – how much studentsimproved on state tests, alongwithmany othermeasurements.It also includesdata fromanony-mous student surveys and in-depth observations.

Tracy Mann, assistant super-intendent for theKentonCountySchools, hasbeen training teach-ers on the new system.

“The feedback is from multi-ple sources including colleaguesand peers, so ... that creates amore complete picture of theteacher’s strengths and areas ofgrowth,” she said.

» Report cards to include fi-nances: The new online reportcards for Kentucky schools willnow include a new financial sec-tion for districts. Districts willnot be judged on the data; thegoal is to provide parents withadditional information.

“It will provide transparencyon how funding is spent at thestate level,” Hiren Desai, an as-sociate commissioner with theKentuckyDepartmentofEduca-tion, said at a recent state schoolboardmeeting.

The page will include dis-tricts’ fund balance (includingnotations if the balance is too

low), enrollment and the per-centage ofmoney spent for sala-ries and benefits.

»New science standards:Kentucky has already adoptednew academic standards in Eng-lish andmath. This year it is im-plementing “Next-GenerationScience Standards.”

The standards have drawnheated criticism from somewhobelieve they dwell too much onclimate issues or not enough onother areas of science. Some leg-islators called for them to be re-moved. Testing on the new sci-ence standardswon’t happenun-til next year.

Biology field stationcollects five truckloads

RiverSweep2014wasJune21along the shoreline of the OhioRiver and its many tributaries.Thomas More College and theBiology Field Station, located inCalifornia, Ky., has been a hostsite for the annual sweep sinceits inception 25 years ago.

River Sweep is a riverbankcleanup that extends the entirelength of the Ohio River and be-yond. More than 3,000 miles ofshorelinewerecombedfor trashanddebris.This is thelargesten-vironmental event of its kindand encompasses six states.

Approximately 35 volunteersparticipated at the Field Stationthis year, joining hundreds ofothersalongtheentirestretchofthe river. They covered aboutfive miles of shoreline on theKentucky side of the river, andanother three miles on the Ohioside, which included the banksalong Front Street in New Rich-mond, Ohio.

Trash bags were provided toeach volunteer. They gatheredapproximately five pickuptruckloads, including an aban-doned boat, a car door from the1960s and awagonwheel hub es-timated to be from1790-1800.

“In addition to removing lit-ter and other debris which canbeharmful towildlife (and isun-sightly), the Ohio River Sweepoffers volunteers an opportuni-ty to take action to better the en-vironment and recognize theOhio River as our region’s mostimportant natural resource,”said Dr. Chris Lorentz, directorofThomasMoreCollege’sBiolo-gy Field Station.

“We continue to find trashalong theOhioRiverand its trib-utarie,” said Lisa Cochran, pro-ject manager at ORSANCO.

Highlands cross countrycoachBrianAlessandro called ita stroke of luck. Dixie Heightscoach Ed Cook said it was a hap-py coincidence. They’re talkingabouthigh-impactnewadditionscoming to their respective pro-grams the past two years afterhirings made at Northern Ken-tucky University put in place anew president and a new wom-en’s basketball coach.

NKU president GeoffreyMearns has twins running forAlessandro, following the fam-ily’s move from the Clevelandarea,whereMearnswasprovostand senior vice president for ac-ademic affairs at ClevelandState University.

Daughter Molly Mearns ex-ploded on the local scene herfirst year in 2012, supplantingstandout Lauren Ossege as theBluebirds’ No. 1 runner. Sheearned theEnquirer 2012North-ernKentuckygirls’ co-runneroftheyearawardasafreshmanaf-ter winning the Class 2A region-al championship and finishingfifth at the state meet.

Son Geoffrey Mearns hasemerged as the No. 2 runner forthe boys after an injury-marredfirst season. Hewas sixth at lastyear’s regional. They’re juniorsat Highlands.

“With something like that, itall depends on where a familyends up. For us, it was total lucktoget the twinsafter theMearnsmoved to Fort Thomas,” saidAlessandro. “It was big rightaway.Mollycamein,andwewona state championship. Shewouldhavehelpedany team.Theotherthing is, they’re both prettysmart, andI think thathelpsa lotwith running.”

Molly Mearns is a straight-AstudentatHighlands.Herbroth-er carries a near-perfect 3.89grade-point average. “It’s afriendly competition in thehouse that she’s winning rightnow,” said theyoungerGeoffreyMearns, who asserted that he’sstill faster.

Norse women’s basketballcoach Dawn Plitzuweit’s son isDixie Heights freshman A.J.Plitzuweit. He’s in his secondseason for the Colonels after hisfamily moved from Michigan,where his mother was associatehead coach for theUniversity ofMichigan women’s basketballteam. His primary sport is bas-ketball, but he made his first lo-cal impact as a runner, winninglast year’s Scott EagleClassic asan eighth-grader.

Hedid it in the rainwhile put-ting together a finishing time of18minutes, 51.7 seconds in help-ing theColonels to their first Ea-gle Classic title in three years.He had a victory margin of 25seconds. At the time, he was notquite 5-foot-4 and weighed less

than 100 pounds. This year, Plit-zuweit is bigger, having grownmore than three inches since hisbreakthrough win.

“My stride has gotten a lotlonger, even my teammateshave told me, so I’m going tokeep running as long as I can,”said Plitzuweit, whose sister,Lexi, is a sixth-grade runner.

Highlands begins the seasonSaturday at Ryle. Dixie startsSept. 6 at Grant County. Whenthe new kids hit the courses fortheir teams, they’ll continue fol-lowing in their parents’ record-breaking paths.

those who are well off, (re-member 93 percent of ourwealthy folks inherited theirwealth), is that if people have abasic income they will notwork, but if that is true why domilitary retirees, who canretire at 38 with a generouspension, still work? Why doSocial Security recipients stillwork?

A basic income for all wouldallow us to eliminate the socialsafety net the rich seem toalways complain about. Work-ers would not have to work tokeep from starving and as aresult businesses would haveto bid for our labor instead ofus begging them for a job! Youwouldn’t hear about a mini-

mumwage as I imagine thebidding for workers mighteliminate that.

Sounds good on this LaborDay. Here’s a plan for takingback from businesses andcorporations the dignity andvalue our work should pro-duce. Here’s a plan for boost-ing the spending power of thepoor and middle class andleaving behind the failed andgreedy policy of supply side,or “trickle down” economicswhich has damaged our econo-my and brought about the lat-est version of the Great Reces-sion.

Yep we can do it all if weonly have the will. We canmake this country live up to its

promise as articulated byFranklin Roosevelt in his FourFreedoms. We have accom-plished three of these free-doms, freedom of speech andworship, and freedom fromfear. Now we have the powerto accomplish the last of thesefreedoms, freedom fromwant.The mechanics are already inplace. The tools are availableto us. Let us make a bettercountry and thereby a betterworld by finishing the workMr. Roosevelt set us on some73 years ago. Let us end pover-ty and financial inequality inAmerica once and for all.

On this Labor Day, let us finish the work

Sept. 4 question:Are you concerned about a

terrorist attack on U.S. soil?Why or why not? What can bedone to lessen the chances ofsuch an attack?

“I am very worried. FlightMH370 is still missing. Is-lamist militias in Libya tookcontrol of nearly a dozencommercial jetliners lastmonth.

I really do fear we mightsee another 9/11. I have noidea what we can do.

Seeing that the mediacompletely stopped report-ing about MH370, and youbarely hear about otherplanes that have gone miss-ing, I just hope and pray thatour government knows a lotmore that we never hearabout, and they are takingcare of things.”

Julee Ellison

“Too many people areworried about someone car-rying a holstered gun into astore and not worried aboutwhat terrorists are doing.Britain raised their terrorlevel for a good reason, Ithink we should do thesame.”

James Bartley

“Climate change poses amuch bigger threat.”

Sam Lapin

“Arm all American citi-zens and protect our south-

ern border.”John Scales

“An alliance needs to beformed and stop ISIS first.Second, do what Britain isdoing and use the intelli-gence we have and keep‘Americans’ who go fightwith terrorists from comingback into the country.”

Peter Freeman

“With another terroristattack, it’s not if, but when.If we put half the effort intosecuring our borders that weput into making sure sham-poo doesn’t find its way intoa domestic flight airlinecabin, we would eliminate agaping hole in our security.Might even see the heroinsupply cut off.”

Aaron Gillum

“A terrorist attack is theabsolute least of my con-cerns.”

About election letters,guest columns

If you decide to retire early,you might have trouble keep-ing your health insurance untilyou are eligible for Medicare,since few employers offerhealth coverage to retirees.Fortunately, the AffordableCare Act provides new optionsfor coverage.

Here, we answer somequestions you might have asyou figure out your healthinsurance options.

Can I get coveragethroughmy spouse if he orshe has workplace coverage?

Your spouse may still beworking for an employer whooffers health insurance tofamily members. Perhaps youdeclined that coverage beforebecause you had it throughyour own job. Nowmight be agood time to re-evaluate if youwant to join your spouse’s plan– but act quickly. After youlose your coverage, you have aspecial 30-day period to enrollin coverage that is offeredthrough your spouse’s employ-er.

Can I keepmy old healthplan?

If you worked in a businesswith 20 or more employees, afederal law called COBRAallows you to keep that healthplan for 18 months (or longerin some circumstances). How-ever, you generally have to paythe full cost of monthly premi-ums – both the share of premi-ums that is paid by employeesand the share that your em-

ployer used topay – plus asmall adminis-trative fee.This may beexpensive, butit gives youaccess to thesame benefitsand providersyou had whileyou wereworking.

Can I shopfor and compare plans in thenew health insurancemar-ketplaces?

You can buy an individualhealth plan through yourstate’s new health insurancemarketplace. To find yourstate’s marketplace, go towww.healthcare.gov.

You may want to comparethe premiums, providers, andbenefits in marketplace planswith the costs and benefits ofyour former employer’s plan todecide whether the market-place or COBRAwould be abetter deal for you.

You have a special opportu-nity to buy a marketplace planwithin 60 days of losing youremployer-based coverage. Ifyou miss the 60-day window,you must wait until Nov. 15 foropen enrollment.

Marketplace plans may be aparticularly good deal if yourincome for 2014 will be be-tween $11,490 and $45,960 (orbetween $15,510 and $62,040for you and your spouse). You

may even qualify for financialassistance that lowers yourmonthly premiums.

Can I buy an individualhealth plan outside of themarketplace?”

In most states, you can buyindividual insurance outside ofthe marketplace by going di-rectly to an insurance compa-ny or broker. Under the Af-fordable Care Act, all newhealth plans that are sold toindividuals must cover a set ofessential health benefits andcannot refuse to cover you ifyou have a pre-existing condi-tion.

However, if you buy a planoutside of the marketplace,you will miss out on somebenefits. For instance, themarketplace offers plans thatundergo greater scrutiny forconsumer protections. Plus,the marketplace allows you tocompare plan options frommultiple insurance companies,apply for financial assistanceto lower your monthly premi-ums, and get help from anunbiased organization or a callcenter.

Can I get Medicaid?If your income for 2014

drops below $1,342 a month (or$2,406 a month for you andyour spouse), you should checkto see if you can get Medicaidin your state. (The incomeguidelines are even higher in afew states.)

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 2014

“There’s nothing cool aboutWorld War I,” instructor EthanPalmer began. “It was horrify-ing and should never be repeat-ed.”

It was a conflict that intro-duced the world to machineguns, chemical weapons and theinhuman life of trench warfare.

But it also brought aboutgreat advances in aviation.

OnAug. 21about 20kids fromgrades 6 to 12 participated in aprogram called STEAMExplor-ersat theErlangerbranchof theKenton County Public Library.They came to learn about thehistory ofWorldWar I and toun-derstand the secrets of flying.

“In World War I there was alot of development and techno-logical innovation as far asflight,” said teen librarian EdenRassette.

In that spirit of innovation,each student created his or herown little flyingmachine froma

drinking straw and two loops ofpaper.Theendresult lookedlikeno airplane they’d ever seen.

“This is a way to teach kidsabout the mechanics of flight.What creates lift, and drag,what makes it fly farther,” Ras-sette explained.

“I’m hoping to teach them alittle about the technology thatcame about in 1914,” Palmeradded.

The kids experimented withtheir models by tossing theminto the air. Some plummetedright to the floor, while otherswere able to fly clear across theroom.

What did the students get outof the experience?

“I liked the history portion ofit,” said 17-year-old Zach Elkinsof Park Hills. “It was prettygroundbreaking for the time.Everything seemed so new –that was just the future backthen.”

“I’ve learned thatWorldWarIplanesweren’t thebestandI’mreally lucky to be flying in 21st

century planes,” shared12-yearold Sophia Laudenslayer of FortMitchell.

The program was targeted

for home school students butwas also open to regular stu-dents.

“What I love about it is that

the kids end up teaching eachother,” said Rassette. “Theyshow each other new tips andtechniques.”

SEPTEMBER 11, 2014 • ALEXANDRIA RECORDER • B3LIFE

Several years ago Iwent to Italy withmy best friend,

Carol Vanover.One day as we were

traveling, we stopped at agas station/restaurant.We knew the food wouldbe good, not fast foodsandwiches wrapped insaran on white bread, buthonest-to-goodness homecooked food served buf-fet style.

The most memorableitem in the whole placewas not the food, but awhole display of Nutella,that popular Italian ha-zelnut chocolate spread.

What I was impressedwith was a gigantic jar ofNutella available forpurchase. It weighedmore than 10 pounds andhad me salivating fordays.

If I could have packedit in my suitcase, I wouldhave.

Since then I’ve beenon a quest to make home-made Nutella. I’ve madedifferent versionsthrough the years, butthe recipe I’m sharingtoday is the easiest.

The difference be-tween this and store-bought Nutella is thehomemade version islighter in color and not ascreamy/shiny as storebought, but then again,it’s easy and doesn’t con-tain anything you can’tbuy at the grocery.

Nutella cloneNext time I make this

I’m going to try semi-sweet chocolate. Hazel-nut oil is my choice, butif your budget won’tallow, vegetable oilworks.

1 cuphazelnuts,choppedand toast-ed (youmay beable to buythem al-readychopped,in whichcase they

are most likely alreadytoasted).

11-12 oz milk chocolate- real chocolate morselsor high quality bars,chopped - I used 11.5 ozbag of milk chocolatemorsels

1 teaspoon vanilla3 tablespoons Hazel-

nut oil or vegetable oil1 tablespoon melted

butter3 tablespoons confec-

tioners’ sugar1 tablespoon cocoa

powderCouple pinches saltMelt chocolate and let

cool. Meanwhile, processhazelnuts to a pasty con-sistency in food proces-sor.

Add vanilla, oil, butter,sugar and cocoa powder.Process until fairlysmooth. Add cooled melt-ed chocolate and processuntil it’s as smooth as youlike.

To toast whole hazel-nuts: Preheated 350 oven,10-12 minutes. Be carefulnot to toast too long orthey’ll burn and tasteterrible. Wrap them intowel and rub to removeloose skin. Not all willcome off.

Store Nutella covered,at room temperature fora week, or in refrigerator3 months.

To serve from refrig-

erator, warm up a little sothat it’s spreadable. Becareful here; warm up onlow for best consistency.Or leave out at roomtemperature until it’sspreadable.

English muffinswith Nutellaand fruit

A perfect snack forafter school!

Spread whole wheattoasted English muffinhalf with Nutella, addsliced apples, bananas,etc. and drizzle with atiny bit of honey.

Eileen Bittman’ssimple OktoberfestGerman potatosalad

I’ve shared my reci-pes for this traditionalOktoberfest dish and nowI’m happy to share Col-erain Township readerEileen Bittman’s recipe.I’ve learned so muchfrom Eileen, a super cookwho is always willing toshare her favorites. Yes,it’s another vintage reci-pe and one requested byJudy, a 40 somethingmomwho told me about asimilar recipe that sheenjoyed as a child. Eileen

said this is from a 1962Pillsbury cookbook. AsI’ve mentioned before, Ithink we’ve startedsomething here withthese vintage and retrorecipes that bring backsuch good memories.

Fry 5 slices baconuntil crisp. Drain andreserve 3 tablespoonsdrippings. Crumble ba-con. Sauté 1 smallchopped Bermuda onionin drippings until tender.Blend in 2 tablespoonsflour, then stir in 2/3 cupcider vinegar and 1-1/3cups water. Boil untilthickened slightly andadd 1/4 cup sugar, salt

and pepper to taste. Pourover bacon and 6 cupssliced cooked potatoesand keep warm untilserved.

B4 • ALEXANDRIA RECORDER • SEPTEMBER 11, 2014 LIFE

MORNINGVIEW— JoeRobinson, who lovedracing cars his whole life,will be honored by theevent he helped get start-ed.

A portion of the pro-ceeds from the Battle inthe Bluegrass, to be heldSept. 20 at ThornhillPark, will help Robinson’sfamily following his acci-dental death on Aug. 10.

Robinson and his bestfriend, Nash Poindexter,started the event lastyear to support theWoundedWarrior Pro-ject, and the organizationwill receive the rest ofthe event’s profits.

“I never dreamed I’dbe doing this withouthim,” said Poindexter.

Friends since ele-mentary school, theyshared a love of cars andracing that brought themto plan the fundraiserlast year. They formed acompany, P&R Produc-tions, when they startedmore events.

“Joe was a woundedwarrior,” said Poindexter.“He wasmedically re-tired from the Armyafter he got a virus inIraq. After his accident, Iwas going to cancel therace, but we all knewhe’d want us to keep go-ing.”

“He was very, verypassionate about raisingmoney for theWoundedWarriors,” said AnthonyRobinson, Joe’s youngerbrother.

Along with their fa-ther, Michael RobinsonJr., and two older broth-ers, Anthony will driveJoe’s prized 2012 C6 Cor-vette for a few burnoutsbefore the races start.

“It’s just somethingI’ve got to do,” said An-thony. “He lived andbreathed racing. It waseverything to him. It onlyseems right.”

His friends agreed theonly thing Joe lovedmore

than racing was his fam-ily – his wife, Tasha, andtheir children, Triniti, 12,and Joseph, 8.

Tasha said Joseph toldher when he grows up,he’s going to race like hisdaddy.

Triniti said her dadwas “amazing.”

“If you had a problemor needed advice, my dadsomehow always knewwhat to say. He was fun-ny and kind. He alwaysknew how to do somanythings, that I could neverdo,” she said.

“I never got to tell mydad goodbye, or I loveyou. In a way, I’m kind ofglad I never told my dad-dy goodbye becausegoodbyemeans neverseeing or talking to some-one again. I’ll see mydaddy again; it just won’tbe for a while. You haveto cherish everyminute,second, hour you havewith someone. You neverknowwhen they will betaken from you,” the12-year-old said.

Tasha said, “His lifedreamwas to do some-thing with racing andwhat better way to do itthan be able to promoteracing while being able tohelp his fellow brothers,his country and what theUnited States standsfor?”

She said Joe “wasalways the first to helpanyone, no matter what,”and his friends said thesame thing.

“Joe would drop whathe was going to helpsomeone else,” said Poin-dexter. “He would fixyour car before he’d fixhis own. If you called himat 2 a.m., he would bethere. He’d make fun ofyou, but he’d be there,smiling the whole time.He wasmy best friend,and you could talk to 100different people and theywould tell you the samething.”

Sasha Parker-Cochranwas a classmate of Joe’sat Simon Kenton HighSchool, and her company,SPCMedia Productions,is a sponsor of Battle inthe Bluegrass.

“We reconnected atthe event last year. WhenI heard about his acci-dent, I knew I wanted tohelp do whatever I couldto make it even betterthan he knew it could be,”she said. “He wanted tosupport WoundedWar-riors. As much as wewant to remember Joeand honor him, that wasvery important to him. Ithit close to home.”

The NSF conducted astudy and found that ourhome kitchens have moregerms that our bath-rooms. Their research ofhomes found severalcommon household gad-gets and appliances tohave bacteria, mold andyeasts that could causeillness. The culprits inorder from the one hav-ing the most germs fromthose they checked:

» Refrigerator waterdispenser

» Rubber spatula

» Blend-er gasket

» Re-frigeratorvegetablecompart-ment

» Re-frigeratorice dis-penser

» Re-frigerator

meat compartment»Knife block» Food container rub-

ber seal» Can opener» Refrigerator in-

sulating sealAll of these items had

one or more types ofbacteria, yeast or moldincluding E. coli, Salmo-

nella, and Listeria.Another item they

found to contain a signifi-cant amount of bacteria:household dish sponges.

Consult the owner’smanual for your refriger-ator for proper cleaningof the ice and water dis-penser units. Other itemscan usually be cleanedwith hot soap and waterand rinsed well. Be sureto clean the items fre-quently with clean cloths.

Question:How soonshould I fertilize mylawn, and what is the besttype of fertilizer forlawns in this area? I haveclay soil.

Answer: The only wayto know what is the best,or “proper” fertilizer foryour lawn is to do a soiltest of the soil in yourlawn.

You may discover thatyour back yard needs adifferent type of fertiliz-er than your front lawn.Too much nitrogen, phos-phorus, potassium or

lime canbe harmfulto yourlawn andlandscapeplants.

Soiltesting is afree ser-vice pro-vided toNorthernKentucky

residents by their localcounty extension office.A soil test often revealsthat the soil only needsnitrogen, in which case

you can purchase acheaper, “farm-type”fertilizer, such as urea(46-0-0). Or you may findthat your soil is high inphosphorus (the middlenumber on the fertilizerbag), but it is low in po-tassium (the third num-ber). So the only way toknow what numbers tolook for as you are buy-ing fertilizer is to look atthe results of your soiltest.

If your ground testslow in phosphorus, you’llwant to select a fertilizerwith a high middle num-ber, such as 10-20-10. Ifyou catch and removethe grass clippings fromthe yard when you mow,you may need to applymore phosphorus andpotassium to the soil,since the clippings con-tain nutrients.

To maintain a qualitylawn, you should applyfertilizer every year.Fertilization helps main-tain turf uniformity, agood green color, andreduces weed problems.

These positive effectscan be lost, however, iffertilizer is applied im-properly or at the wrongtime. Turf growth is high-ly dependent on nitrogenfertilization, but applyingnitrogen at the wrongtime or in heavy amountsmay severely damageyour lawn.

A general recom-mendation is to apply 1pound actual nitrogenper 1,000 square feet oflawn for each applica-tion.

Lowmaintenancecool-season lawns (fes-cues, bluegrass and pe-rennial ryegrass) onlyget fertilized once a year,in October or November.Mediummaintenanceinvolves two fertiliza-tions per year, with onein September or October,and a follow-up treat-ment six weeks later inNovember or December.

Don’t miss the fallwindow of opportunityfor fertilizing your lawn.Waiting until spring willmean more weeds, dis-eases and pests.

horticulture.

It’s true. Regular oil changes, tune-ups and maintenance can help improve your vehicle’s performance and gas

mileage, extend its life and increase its resale value. It can also help reduce traffic congestion due to preventable

breakdowns. But possibly most important of all, taking good care of your car could help reduce emissions by

more than half. And that should make you breathe a lot easier between oil changes. So keep it up because…
