FLORENCE— Shelley Payne of Ve-rona smiles as she reaches for a boxof cereal.
It’s a little cool on a Thursday De-cembermorning in theparking lot ofthe Florence Branch of the BooneCounty Public Library. Payne, how-ever, doesn’t have the luxury of pull-ing aboxof cereal fromthe shelf of agrocery store.
That’s why she was at the library
Dec. 19 for the FreestoreFoodbankMobile Pantry. Her household wasoneof150 that received tickets to thepantry, sponsored by an anonymousdonor.
“I’ve been out of work for 2 1⁄2years,” she said. “I have no incomecoming in whatsoever. To have thishelp is fantastic.”
Since last year, the library haspartnered with the FreestoreFood-bank to distribute food to those whoare food insecure – not knowingwhere you will get your next meal,said Melanie Sperling, outreachmanager of the Boone County Li-brary.

A new anonymoustip-line aims to dis-courage underagedrinking.
“One of the thingswe tasked ourselveswith was underagedrinking,” said Flor-ence Police Capt. Lin-ny Cloyd, a member ofthe Boone County Alli-ance for HealthyYouth, a communitydrug prevention coali-tion.
The group put out a“pretty comprehen-sive plan” on how theywanted to address theissue, Cloyd said, thatincluded a town hallmeeting and placingstickers in stores re-minding people to notbuy for those who areunderage.
The next step, hesaid, is the recentlylaunched underage al-cohol tip-line. It’s ajoint venture venturebetween the BooneCounty Sheriff’s De-partment, FlorencePolice Departmentand the Boone CountyPublic Safety Commu-nication.
The tip-line is a ded-icated line into policedispatchcenter that al-lows people to “anony-mously report epi-sodes of underagedrinking,” said Cloyd.
Call the tip-line at859-261-1001.
Cloydsays that overthe past few years thealliance’s attention hasswitched to the heroinproblem plaguing thearea.
While heroin is still“on top of our efforts,this is something seri-ous enough thatwe feltlike we needed to goahead and put out,” hesaid.
This is somethingthey wanted to pursuenot only because un-derage drinking is ille-gal, but, from the lawenforcement perspec-tive, “we’re getting sotired of having to dothat knock on thedoor,” said Cloyd, let-ting parents know thatfor whatever alcohol-related reason, theirchild won’t be home.
While Cloyd said hedoesn’t know if it’snec-essarily an over-whelming problem, of-

BURLINGTON — The BooneCounty Fiscal Court unani-mously approved the BooneCounty Sheriff Department’s2014 budget Tuesday, Dec. 17.
Sheriff Deputy RobertReuthe told the Boone CountyFiscal Court the department an-ticipates ending the currentyear about $863,000, or 5.25per-cent, under budget.
“Now, what you have beforeyou is Sheriff (Michael) Hel-mig’s 2014 budget,” he said.“This budget contains our best
estimate of thecost to operatethe sheriff’s of-fice for the up-coming calendaryear.”
The budgetrevenues and ex-penditures areestimated at
$17.61million, an increase from$16.44 million budgeted in 2013.
“The proposed 2014 budgetwill be met with the same focusand discipline we have dis-played in the past,” reads a me-mo from Helmig to the fiscalcourt.
Outsideofa3percentperfor-mance raise for eligible em-ployees and end-of-term cost,the fiscal court’s contributionwill decrease in 2014, saidReuthe.
County Administrator JeffEarlywine said end-of-termcosts come at the end of theterm of an elected official, likethe sheriff, and provides for thepotential “that there could be achange in the statutory office.”
“This would provide just alittle (flexibility) to ensurethere wouldn’t be any disrup-tion in service if there werechanges in the office,” Early-
wine explained.“Speaking of the court’s con-
tribution, I think it’s importantto note that the contribution wepropose in 2014 is, in fact, lessthan it was in 2007,” Reuthesaid. The budget anticipates re-ceiving10.7millionfromthefis-cal court.
According to Reuthe, the de-partment is anticipatinga5per-cent increase inhealthcarepre-miums while contributions tothestate retirement systemwilldecrease by 1.22 percent fornon-hazardous employees and1.39 percent for hazardous em-ployees.
The department anticipatesnot buying new patrol vehiclesin 2014 since the fiscal court ahsbeen updating the fleet withmore modern vehicles over thelast two years.
The department, saidReuthe, went exclusively withthe Ford police Interceptor ve-hicles, “and that model hasshown to be a true workhorseover the last two years, savingus money in fuel and mainte-nance costs.”
Because the new models areanticipated to last longer,

ficials are “trying to getahead of the problem be-fore it becomes a prob-lem.”
The Boone County
Sheriff’s Departmenthas zero tolerance forunderage drinking,spokesman Tom Sche-ben said.
“The first thing alco-hol effects is your judg-ment and that’s a prettyvolatile mixture whenyou mix that withyouth,” he said.
More informationabout theBooneCountyAlliance can be foundon Facebook.

Through monetarycontributionsmade by or-ganizations including TheBoone County ExtensionHomemakers and TheFlorence Woman’s Cluband various individuals,the FreestoreFoodbankMobile Food Pantry hasallowed the library to dis-tribute food to needy fam-ilies.
SinceJanuary2013, thelibraryhashelpeddistrib-ute 60,000 pounds of foodand one box truck of per-sonal care items to 1,292households.
The effort started inlast year, Sperling said,when a group of BooneCounty residents gath-ered to look at ways tohelp the homeless andworkingpoor.The library,she explained, was theonly organization in thecounty with the volunteermanpower tomove the ef-fort forward.
“Sowetookiton,”Sper-ling said. “When you lookat the hierarchy of needs
... howdoyou teachachildto read if he or she is hun-gry? How can anyone betheir best self if they arehungry? This tells people,we care for you and the li-brary.”
According to Sperlingthis helps build a relation-ship with library and pa-trons who are in need.
She said with a rela-tionship established, thelibrary can further helpthese individuals. The li-brary offers free comput-er classes and Internetuse for job searching, forexample. Sperling saidtheycanalsohelp the indi-viduals learn and connectwith other helpful agen-cies within the county.
“At the Florencebranch, we know thehomeless populationwell,” she said. “Theycome in to read and usethe computers to searchfor jobs.”
Sperling said these re-sources are of value andare making a difference.
“There was one manwho came in to use thecomputers and heworkedso hard on his resume andjob search,” she said. “Hewas at it every day. Whenhe got a job, he brought inhis family to tell us thank
you.”FreestoreFoodbank’s
community partnershipmanager for KentuckySarah Celenza said the li-brary has been a greatpartner.
“Melanie of the BooneCounty Library under-stands that many mem-bers of her library’s com-munity need much morethan books and she hasdone an amazing job atgarnering support fromvolunteers, staff and do-nors,” Celenza. “We arethrilled to partner in thenetwork she’s built, get-tingnutritious foodquick-ly to people who need itmost. In a county wherethere aren’t a lot of or-ganizations in place tomeet the basic needs ofstruggling families, the li-brary is an important andaccessible communityhub.”
According to the Fre-estoreFoodbank, thereare 13,330 food insecureindividuals in BooneCounty. Of that number,4,430 are children.

More than 70 studentswentcarolingaroundBur-lington, Hebron and Flor-ence Dec. 18.
Teacher Jan Rade-macher said it’s a sixth-grade service project theschool has performed forthe last several years.
The students, she said,“basically visit peoplewhoneedsomeChristmas
cheer in some way.”It’s her favorite field
trip.Some students hear
about the caroling fromtheir older siblings andcomein“expecting it tobea really fun day,” Rade-macher said. But whatthey find is “they reallyprovide a neat service tothe people.”
Fellow teacher KellyWagnersaid students “geta sense of service, thatthey’re doing somethinghelpful.”

Gridlock inWashington,D.C., has often caused the busi-ness community to wonder ifwe could ever see progress onissues that could help our busi-nesses or communities moveforward. Increasing our energyindependence, immigrationreform, and tax reform need tobe in the debate. Unfortunately,we wonder if our federal offi-cials could agree that the sky isblue. There is no willingness tocollaborate to reachmeaning-ful solution – just a digging inof heels.
Frankfort, however, is notWashington. As we head intothe 2014 General Assembly andwe have reasons for optimism.
Last year’s General Assem-bly saw lawmakers come to-gether to solve some of themost pressing issues facing
Kentucky’sfuture. Ourschools don’treceive enoughfunds to buytextbooks forstudents; ourroads andbridges aredeterioratingand criticalpublic invest-ments needsare unable to
bemet. More than $30 billion inunfunded liability to the publicpension system limits the statefrommeetingmany of theseobligations. If this wereWash-ington, there would no doubthave been a breakdown alongpolitical party lines and noresolutions. But Frankfort isnot Washington and the Gener-
al Assembly worked with Gov.Beshear to make progress onthe pension issue. Although theissue still needs some work, weare much closer than ever be-fore to a sustainable fix.
What the 2013 General As-sembly showed was that elect-ed officials could come togeth-er to be problem solvers. It’swhat we should all expect.
Seeing this collaborationgives us confidence that Frank-fort will come together again in2014. For our businesses andcommunities in Northern Ken-tucky, the following issues needto be addressed:
» The Bridge. We’ve seenunprecedented collaborationbetween governors Beshearand Kasich, and look to ourN.Ky. caucus to work to devel-op a fair financing plan.
Enough talk. The time is now tomove forward for the safety ofour residents, health of ourbusinesses and the region’scompetitiveness.
» Taxmodernization. Toattract new jobs and retainexisting ones, the Common-wealth must put into place a taxcode that reflects a 21st centu-ry economy. Many good recom-mendations are on the table soit’s time to act.
» New revenue throughexpanding gaming. Gaming isalready here. For NorthernKentucky gaming is as close asonemile across the Ohio River.Give people the chance to voteon whether we keep our dollarshere or send them to neigh-boring states to pave theirroads and build their schools.
Being a legislator is hard
work. UnlikeWashington, it’s apart-time job. Legislators havefull-time jobs back home withother responsibilities, but givethose up each January to repre-sent us in Frankfort. Leadinginto this session, let’s take aminute to recognize that Frank-fort is not D.C.
In Frankfort, our legislaturehas learned the benefits ofworking together rather thanhave partisan debates that onlyharm constituents. If you see alegislator, thank them for theirservice, and tell them you lookforward to seeing the samelevel of cooperation with moreresults in 2014.

General Assembly shows reasons for optimism
SteveStevensCOMMUNITYRECORDER GUESTCOLUMNIST
What often sets the North-ern Kentucky region apart isour willingness to collaborateto solve common problems.When the region was facedwith an astounding rise in thenumber of people addicted toheroin, we came together onceagain.
The result was the NorthernKentucky Heroin Impact re-sponse group’s plan, “NorthernKentucky’s Collective Re-sponse to the Heroin Epidem-ic,” released in mid-November.
The plan was the product ofmore than a year of work bythe heroin impact group. Webrought together experts fromlaw enforcement, local govern-ment, mental health/substanceabuse providers, health careand the business community.
The group pulled togetherdata on the impact of heroinabuse. We saw how drug over-dose deaths in Kentucky qua-drupled between 1999 and 2013.The estimated economic im-pact of heroin abuse in ourstate is $6 billion each year.Northern Kentucky’s rate ofhepatitis C, a common diseaseamong IV drug users, is twicethat of the state and 24 timesthat of the United States.
Then, we researched solu-tions to the problem. We gath-
ered informa-tion fromacross thecountry, ana-lyzed it andbrought forthrecommenda-tions for whatwe think canwork in North-ern Kentucky.Those strate-gies arespelled out in
the plan, which can be down-loaded athttp://www.drugfreenky.org.
The plan outlines five areasof response. Think of these aspieces of one big pie – all arenecessary to successfully ad-dress heroin abuse in NorthernKentucky.
First, we must reduce sup-ply. Under the leadership ofthe N.Ky. Drug Strike Forceand local law enforcement, weneed to decrease the availabil-ity of heroin and other drugson our streets.
To reduce the demand forheroin, we need to focus onprevention, treatment andsupport in recovery. We needprograms that promote socialand emotional health. We needto learn how to use prescrip-tion drugs wisely, so their use
doesn’t lead to heroin abuse.Wemust expand and improvetreatment options for peoplewho are addicted. This in-cludes long-term residentialtreatment for adults and teens,as well as outpatient programs.When a person is undergoingtreatment, we need wrap-around services, like housingand job programs, to help indi-viduals focus on lifelong recov-ery.
Until people with heroinaddiction obtain treatment fortheir condition, we must de-crease the risk of transmittingdiseases and prevent themfrom dying from an overdose.We need to keep used needlesand syringes from our streets,parking lots, and other placesin the community and be ableto help people with heroinaddiction stop sharing theirdevices and get in to treat-ment. Wemust make the medi-cation naloxone more widelyavailable so that overdoses canbe quickly reversed and livessaved.
Fourth, we must advocatefor changes in legislation, edu-cation and programs that willenable Northern Kentucky toeffectively banish heroin fromour neighborhoods and com-munities and care for our
friends and family membersliving with addiction.
Lastly, we must have thecapacity to manage the changewe seek. We need to build onthe work of the heroin impactresponse group with the infra-structure needed to move theplan forward, implement strat-egies, ensure accountabilityand measure progress.
There is no turning back –this problem will not go awayon its own and we cannot af-ford to stay as we are. We havea plan now and wemust con-tinue to move forward to carryit out. For the sake of our chil-dren, our families, our neigh-borhoods, our businesses andour communities, we mustsucceed. And wemust do thiswork together.
Accomplishing these taskswill not be easy, and will re-quire numerous resources.But, our communities will bebetter, stronger and healthierif we can get those in needback on track and on a healthi-er, productive path. All of usbenefit.

Coming together to reducethe impact of heroin
LynneSaddlerCOMMUNITYRECORDER GUESTCOLUMNIST
My13-year-old daughterLauren and I rushed to the LaGuardia airport after beinginterviewed on “Fox andFriends” – our 15 minutes (ac-tually 5 minutes) of fame. Thebook we wrote together aboutcapitalism for students startedas a summer project and endedup in commerce on Fox News –strong proof that capitalismlives in America. To boot, ithappened at Christmas. NewYork City knows how to deckthe halls.
I admit, I sat next to thegate feeling proud, maybeeven a little smug. However, inmy experience God has a wayof humbling us, sometimeswhen we need it the most. Hu-mility came in the form a burlyman with a Russian accent.Dmitriy approached me andannounced, “Thank you for
doing a book toteach capital-ism. What arepeople doing toAmerica?”
I asked himwhat he meant.Dmitriy lit upat the invita-tion to discusscapitalism,explaining thathis family“fled” the
Soviet Union to escape of gov-ernment control. He describedgovernment mandated wagesand benefits as robbing thehuman spirit. He then beganasking me a series of ques-tions.
Dmitriy – What do you sayto people who think capitalismis all about greed?
Rob – I’m concerned about
greed. I’m not sure capitalismworks well when greed is theprimary motivation.
Dmitriy – There are greedypeople in any economic sys-tem. I lived in it in the SovietUnion. Greed does not go awaywith communism or socialism,trust me.
Dmitriy – It’s far worse thanthat. If you move to socialismor communism, things happenthrough a series of govern-ment favors and pay-offs.Graft becomes the currency ofcommerce, not freedom andmerit.
Dmitriy – There are havesand have nots, far worse thanin America. When it’s all aboutwho you know, hard work andeducation don’t matter much.Eventually, it ends up bringingthe country down.
Dmitriy – I’m a software
engineer and executive in NewYork. What do you think myco-workers think of me?
Rob - If you’re this vocal, Ibet it’s tough.
Dmitriy – The young work-ers think I’m stupid. I lived inthe world they want and Ithank God every day that weescaped it. I earned three de-grees here and lived the Amer-ican dream. Yet I’m the stupidone.
Most of us in America haveso much about which to bethankful and to celebrate, par-ticularly at the holidays. May-be it takes a person from theformer Soviet Union to fullyunderstand all of our country’smany blessings.

Snow didn’t delay Point’s fun eveningThe 43rd annual Joy to the
World benefit of The Point/Arcof Northern Kentucky was un-precedented. Expecting the sec-ond largest crowd ever – in ex-cess of 800 people – the Dec. 6fundraiser at Horseshoe CasinoCincinnati was directly impact-edbyanuninvitedguest.MotherNature pounded the area withsnow and paralyzed local trafficfor hours. Even so, more than400 supporters braved the ele-ments and helped raise morethan $100,000 for people with in-tellectual/ developmental dis-abilities.
Those able to attend enjoyeda holiday evening, which includ-ed welcoming Sinatra songsfromDon Fangman, dinner, andthe auctioning and raffling ofmore than 200 items. ShereePaolello of WLWT-TV newsagain served as master of cere-monies, and was able to keepthings on schedule despite thedelayed arrival of many guestsdue to the snow.
A highlight of the eveningwas the presence of TeddyKremer, theReds’ honorarybat-boy whose story appeared onESPN’s “E:60” show after being
featured in an Enquirer story.After working at Redsfest, Ted-dy was one of the few celebrityauctioneers able to make thateveing. Teddy and Sheree auc-tioned off his limited editionTopps baseball card, given toThe Point by Teddy’s parents,and generated $900.
“While the snow storm pre-vented us from having a fullhouse,” said Judi Gerding, ThePoint’s president. “Thanks to thesupport of our sponsors, guests,and volunteers, The Point wasstill dealt a winning hand.”

I’m going to have tomake sure I put makeupon before going out to thegrocery or retail store.The past couple of timesI was at these places,readers stopped me tochat. Both times I wasplanning on running inand out quickly so Ididn’t bother with make-up, only a bit of lipstick.Well, I had to laugh after-ward at my vanity. (Whydid I think no one wouldrecognize me “au natu-rel”?)
It’s times like thosethat keep me humble! Iwanted to let each of youknow howmuch I’ve
appreciat-ed thecaring andsharingthat hap-pens eachweekthroughthis col-umn. Hap-py NewYear! I
hope 2014 brings manyblessings to your home.
Bob and John’seggplant casserole
Reader John Pancoastsent this, which is now afavorite for entertainingat his and wife Priscilla’s
home. “From friend BobMartin of Loveland,”John said. John addedfresh, coarse driedbreadcrumbs on top forextra crunchiness. I’mlooking forward to mak-ing this myself. John saidif you use a 9-inch by13-inch pan, you’ll getmore crunchy top sur-face area.
1 large eggplant, peeled andcut into 1⁄2-inch cubes
1 sleeve of Townhousecrackers (about 40crackers), crumbledcoarsely
1 cup whipping cream8 oz. shredded extra-sharpcheddar
1 tablespoon lemon juice(optional)
Preheat oven to 350degrees. Heat six cupswater to full boil in largepot. Add lemon juice ifdesired (some think itkeeps eggplant fromdarkening). Add eggplantto boiling water. Stireggplant frequently, itwill be floating on top ofwater. Cook just untilwater starts to return toa boil, about three min-utes. Do NOT overdo thisstep or eggplant willbecome rubbery! Drainand transfer to sprayedtwo-quart casserole.Sprinkle crackers on top.Pour in cream and addcheese. Stir until blend-ed. Bake uncovered for 1hour or until it starts tobrown on top and gets alittle crusty aroundedges.
Priscilla Pancoast’seasy corn pudding
Another Pancoastfavorite. Let me know ifyou want this recipe.
“Everyone who tastes itwants the recipe,” Pris-cilla told me.
No-fuss standing ribroast
One of the meat cut-ters at the grocery toldme he has success withthis holiday roast everytime he makes it. Gosh, apretty good testimonialcoming from him. Sear-ing the roast on the out-side at a high temper-ature insures a moistinside. Preheat oven to450 degrees. Season rawroast as desired. Placerib side down in a panand roast 10-15 minutes.Careful here, you mayget some splattering.Reduce oven temper-ature to 250 degrees androast until thermometerreads about 125 for rareor up to 145 for medium.The roast continues tocook at least 5 degreesmore when it’s out of theoven. Let it rest, tentedloosely with foil, forabout 20-30 minutes be-fore carving.
Caribbean citrussalad dressing
I really like this for aholiday buffet. Let guestsdrizzle on top of saladmade with mixed greens.This can be made severaldays ahead. If you havesome fresh parsley, tossa bit in. Taste beforeadding salt and pepper.Whisk together:

It is a time of yearwhen family membersmay gather from hitherand yon. Stories andmemories will most like-ly be shared. Somemaybe embarrassing whileothers uplifting and joy-ful. This may be a greattime to record or write achapter of your life story.
Memories can be verypowerful and remind usof life’s ups and downsand times of growth,maturity and happiness.Do you remember whatyour first job was like?What was the make andmodel of your first car?How did you feel whenyou held your first child?What events have hap-pened that have shapedwho you are?
Yourspecialmemoriesmay notonly beimportantto you, butthey couldbe impor-tant tofamily andfriends aswell. Many
people wish they knewmore about their familyhistory. Writing your lifestory can help. The ac-count of the series ofevents and experiencesthat make you the personyou are today can bewritten, recorded orboth.
Life stories includeinformation about family
and friends, the differentlocations and dwellingsthat you’ve called home,your education, work,hobbies, spirituality andhow you were affectedby important worldevents, such as the end ofthe VietnamWar or 9/11.Life stories should alsoinclude family medicalhistory as this can pro-vide useful informationfor both you and futuregenerations. Knowingyour family medicalhistory can encouragepreventative measuresand even lead to earlydetection of certainhealth problems or dis-orders.
Documenting andsharing a life story hasmany mental and social
benefits. The processcontributes to overallmental healthiness, rein-forces a sense of purposeand strengthens familyand caregiver relation-ships. In addition, thelegacy of a life story andfamily history influencesfuture generations.
Photographs, me-mentos and talking toothers can be helpfultools to jar memories. Nomatter your age thismight be the time of yearto write or record a chap-ter of your life story.

Question: My lawn,garden and landscape allseem to be going down-hill. Even with all the
rain, sever-al plantsdied thisfall, and Idid notharvestmuch pro-duce fromthe gardeneither.
An-swer: Plantroots, thenbranches,
die back during dryyears, and then furtherdecline occurs in wetyears like 2013, from rootrot due to sitting in wa-ter-logged clay soils withlow oxygen. Add to thisthe ravages of variousair-borne and soil-borneplant diseases, and attackfrom various insects,including thousands ofemerald ash borers nowin Northern Kentucky,and it becomes clear whyso many plants are dying.Because of all these “nat-ural factors” that bring
down plants, it becomesessential that we do “ourpart” as “plant man-agers” to keep the plantsfrom going into stress.Therefore, as we ap-proach the new year, let’smake some resolutions.
New year’sresolutions for thegardener
» I will never toptrees, or pay someoneelse to do it, because itshortens the life of thetree, makes it weakerand more apt to breakapart, and causes sun-scald, frost cracks, andattack from insects anddiseases.
» When pruning atree, I will never leave abranch stub, but will cutback to another sidebranch that’s at leastone-third the diameter ofwhat it’s attached to, orcut back to the maintrunk, leaving only the“branch collar” or swell-ing near the trunk (usu-ally sticks out only aquarter- to a half-inch for
small branches, or oneinch for largerbranches). If a longerstub is left, it will die,and will eventually rotout the larger branch ortrunk below it.
» Whenmulchingaround trees, I willmulch only three inchesdeep, and I will never letthe mulch touch thetrunk of the tree, andcertainly I will never do“volcano mulching,”piling the mulch high upon the tree trunk, sincethis causes the tree barkand trunk to rot slowly,since the mulch trapsand holds too much mois-ture during the wet sea-sons, and it also encour-ages moles and fieldmice to chew off the barkof the tree trunk, killingthe tree.
» I will always obtainlists of disease and in-sect-resistant plantsfrom the local Coopera-tive Extension ServiceOffice before planting,especially for disease-susceptible plants likeapples and crab apples,
where many resistantvarieties exist.
» I will always submita soil sample before ap-plying lime to my soil,and before planting alawn, flowers, fruits,vegetables, trees orshrubs, since a soil test(free through your localNorthern Kentucky
County Extension Office)is the only way to know ifyou need lime, sulfur,phosphorus or potassium.Applying too much or toolittle of any of these willbe harmful to plants.Each plant has a uniquerequirement for desir-able soil pH and nutrientlevels. Once you know
your soil pH, the Exten-sion Office also has listsof which plants like acidsoils or alkaline soils.
