ALEXANDRIA — CampbellCounty residents are being in-vited to attend an all-day freecelebration certain to go downin history.

Live music, square dancing,wine tastings and a special fo-cus on the role of womenthroughout the county’s historywill all be part of a free day ofexhibitions at the AlexandriaFairgrounds from 10 a.m.-4 p.m.Saturday, June 27.

Campbell County Historicaland Genealogical Society’s mis-sion from the start was tellingthe county’s story, said founderand president Ken Reis ofGrants Lick.

“In 1989 my brother Jim andIwere concerned with Kentuck-y’s bicentennial coming up in

1992 and Campbell County’s bi-centennial in 1994 there was noorganization representingcounty history,” Reis said.

Members started gatheringfiles, books and memorabiliathat now overflow a museumand headquarters for the soci-ety on the second floor of Camp-bell County’s courthouse in Al-exandria.

“We have become the sole re-source for preserving, protect-ing and promoting history herein our county,” Reis said in anews release. “And we are cele-brating this great accomplish-ment.”

A center focus of all exhibitswill be a model of CampbellCounty’s Alexandria court-house as it appeared in 1840.The model is created by Alexan-dria area business AppliedImagination, said Pam Case-

bolt, society member and cele-bration organizer. Campbell’stwo county seats, Newport andAlexandria, will each displaybooths next to the courthousemodel showing changes eachcity has undergone in the last 25years, Casebolt said.

The courthouse model isunique with its own lighting, shesaid. The courthouse modelshows off a Campbell Countybusiness known around the na-tion, she said. Applied Imagina-tion has created garden railwayexhibits for botanical gardensin New York City, Washington,D.C., and Chicago.

“They use all-natural materi-als to construct landmark build-ings and bridges,” Caseboltsaid.

When the chef from BouquetRestaurant and Wine Bar in Co-vington came to Alexandriaarea Greensleeves Farm, 30-year-old Christy Hannegandidn’t hesitate to make a reser-vation to dine next to a farmfield.

Geensleeves, a CommunitySupported Agriculture (CSA)farm, started bringing localchefs in May from prestigiousrestaurants to cook dinners us-ing its produce and food fromother local farms, said ownerGretchen Vaughn.

Vaughn’s CSA, which has awaiting list to join, allows peo-ple to work on a farm growingfood in exchange for weeklyshares of the crop yields.

For the dinners, Vaughn setsout tables next to her fields witha commanding view of rollingsouthern Campbell Countyhills. A tour of the farm and livemusic are part of the experi-ence, she said. Allison Hines,owner of Butcher Betties Meats& Sweets in Florence, will cooka hog from Napoleon RidgeFarm Sunday, July 12, for thenext dinner.

“The purpose of this is toeducate more people in Ken-tucky about what local farmsare doing and how the food theygrow can be used,” Vaughn said.

Hannegan, of Cold Spring,said Bouquet is a favorite res-taurant at which to dine, so shedidn’t want to miss Green-sleeves’ first dinner. Hannegan

is a Greensleeves CSA member.“When I heard Bouquet was

going to be Greensleeves’ firstdinner, I knew we had to bethere so I got myself and fiveothers to come with me,” shesaid.

Hannegan writes about howshe cooks and eats meals madeprimarily out of vegetables,fruit and meats at her Facebookblog Eat Clean Live Simple.

Bouquet uses vegetablesgrown at Gleensleeves andfoods from other local growers,so Hannegan said she has a com-fort level with the menu.

“For someone who eats cleanon a daily basis sometimes it’shard to go out and eat becauseyou’re worried about what’s inyour food,” she said.

Hannegan said she carefullyshops at grocery stores, too, andraises small vegetables in ahome garden.

“If I can’t read the ingredi-ents in the label I won’t put it inmy mouth,” she said.

Hines, a chef for 20 years un-til starting Butcher BettiesMeats & Sweets in Florence,said she will cook a freshlybutchered grass-fed hog fromNapoleon Ridge Farm. Gincocktails served at dinner willbe made with spirits from NewRiff Distilling of Newport.Beers from Ei8ht Ball Breweryof Bellevue will be served at thedinner.

Butter Betties sells meatsand cheeses, primarily grass-fed from local pastures, Hinessaid.

Meat, strength and glamour

are all a part of the Butcher Be-tties concept, she said. A U.S.Navy veteran, Hines said beinga female butcher in a “male-dominated profession” led herto come up with a name evoca-tive of pinups and swing musicof the 1940s and 1950s.

“I’ve always been attractedto that whole era of strength andfemininity,” Hines said.

Pinup girls of the era didboth, she said.

“Rosie the Riveter is a per-fect example,” Hines said.

Before coming up with a me-nu for July 12, Hines said she

will see what vegetables fromGreensleeves are at their peak.The hog from Napoleon RidgeFarm will be butchered daysprior to the dinner. Tricia Hous-ton, owner of Napoleon Ridge,will assist Hines with the cook-ing in her other persona as “TheFarm Chef Girl.”

“It’s going to be a beautifulKentucky-raised menu,” Hinessaid.

Future Greensleeves chefdinners include a visit from Nu-Vo at Greenup Aug. 16 and fromVirgil's Cafe of Bellevue Sept.20.

Another chance to experi-ence food from Greensleeves isthe 10 a.m.-8 p.m. Sunday, June28, Garlic Festival at the farm,Vaughn said. Greensleeves is at10851 Pleasant Ridge Road, Al-exandria. Admission will be $5.

At least 20 different types ofgarlic plants grown at Green-sleeves will be turned into dish-es people can taste, Vaughnsaid. There will also be an opengarlic cooking competition.

For information on dinnersor the festival visit Green-sleves’ website atbit.ly/1Hxkata.

ALEXANDRIA — Mem-bers of St. Paul’s Churchof the United Church ofChrist never forgot theyhad a cemetery.

They did forget whoowned the cemetery onSouth Jefferson Street.

St. Paul moved in 1900across Main Street to 1North Jefferson St.. Overthe years, ownership ofthe cemetery becamemurky. When a neighbor-ing property went up forsale this year, churchmembers were surprisedto hear they still ownedthe cemetery, said churchmember Roger VonStrohe of Alexandria.

Research led churchmembers to an 1850 deedlisting the German Lu-theran Church at Alexan-dria as owner. Churchmembers have alwaysknown the church as Ger-man Evangelical too, hesaid.

“People had forgottenall about the deed,” VonStrohe said.

Congregation mem-bers set out to clear hon-eysuckle and other brushto restore the cemeterythis spring, he said. Thechurch rededicated thecemetery May 31.

Some church membershave ancestors in thecemetery and knew it wasovergrown.

“They didn’t feel likethey had the legal right todo anything,” Von Strohesaid.

People can see sixmarked graves in thecemetery, Von Strohesaid. Research led to an

estimated 14 unmarkedgraves, he said.

Church records are be-lieved to have been de-stroyed in the 1920s, VonStrohe said.

Among its markedgraves are two head-stones for Union Civil Warsoldier FerdinandFrommholz’s burial site.Frommholz served in the16th Volunteer KentuckyInfantry and died in Au-gust 1865 after being hos-pitalized.

Cut stones from thefirst church’s foundationwere also found near thegraveyard, said PastorChad Abbott.

“Before we were everborn there was a founda-tion laid and all we are do-ing is carrying things onand sharing God’s love,”Abbott said.

The church is glad totake on the stewardship

role for graves of some ofits earliest members, hesaid.

“It is right for us tohonor these pioneers,”Abbott said.

Von Strohe said mostheadstones were found ina pile in the back of theproperty instead of mark-ing graves. Frommholz’sheadstones were the onlyones not disturbed be-cause they are betweentwo trees and were sur-rounded by heavy brush,he said.

Network ofvolunteers helpedrestore cemetery

About 20 volunteers,including all nine churchtrustees, helped clear thecemetery. Local ceme-tery researchers from theCampbell County Histori-cal and Genealogical Soci-

ety and people with recol-lections of where head-stones originally be-longed helped placeheadstones. Tile masonKenny Rahe, a longtimechurch member and Alex-andria native, helpedclean headstones, VonStrohe said.

Von Strohe alsobrought in his son, Doug-las Von Strohe, to assistwith identifying the cem-etery’s boundaries. Doug-

las is co-owner of K & VCultural Resources Man-agement in Erlanger withhis business partner Jean-nine Kreinbrink.

The younger VonStrohe said his firm, witharcheology expertise,helps developers identifyboundaries of graveyardsthey are working to avoid.

Kreinbrink helpedbring in Thomas Brack-man, a geophysics andhazards professor fromNorthern Kentucky Uni-versity, to help useground penetrating radarto identify probable gravesites, said Douglas VonStrohe.

California area resi-dent Marvin Record, acemetery historian help-ing on the project, said hewas impressed with howchurch members took thelead.

Church members invit-ed a member of the Sonsof Union Veterans of theCivil War to a May 31church ceremony rededi-cating the graves, Recordsaid. Frommholz’s lastknown action was at FortAnderson, North Caroli-na, in February 1865 aspart of an effort to cap-ture the port of Wilming-ton, he said. Frommholz

was sent back to Cincin-nati for hospitalization forunknown reasons, he said.

Typically, Record saidhe and Grants Lick resi-dent Buck Seibert have towork alone to get ceme-teries and graves identi-fied. Sometimes theirwork ensures peopleknow a cemetery existsbefore development orland reuse happens, Rec-ord said.

“It’s nice to save andpreserve a cemetery in-stead of seeing it bull-dozed over,” he said.

LIFE

FLORENCE —

Although FriendlyMarket has beenopen for almost twoyears, Allison Hinesof Butcher Betties

doesn’t think enough peopleknow about it yet.

Nestled behind a shoppingcenter off Sam Neace and Mt.Zion roads, adjacent to theKroger, the Friendly Marketcombines the freshest flavors,the highest quality locallygrown products and countrycharm.

Hines, a petite powerhousewith a vintage vibe, saidFriendly Market shouldn’t betoo hard to find later this yearwhen Northern Kentucky Uni-versity’s art department willpaint a mural of fruits andvegetables on the tan metalbuilding’s exterior.

“We’ll be a culinary destina-tion. That’s what we want,” shesaid. “People will see us fromthe highway. They’ll be able tosee it from airplanes. ... Oncethey know we’re here, they’llbe back.”

The Boone County marketon Norbotten Avenue has anoutdoor farmers market aswell as nine indoor tenants:Afishionados, Butcher Betties,Butcher Betties KentuckyProud General Store, The Colo-nel’s Creamery, Colonel De’sGourmet Herbs and Spices,The Flying Olive~Bluegrass,Smokin This and That BBQand Unbridled Spirit liquorstore.

Hines started her pinup-inspired butcher shop lastyear, and now also managesButcher Betties KentuckyProud General Store.

On one side of the market’scenter aisle stands Hines’whole animal butchery shop,

where she offers a variety ofmeats as well as locally pro-duced cheeses. On the otherside sits the Kentucky Proudshop, which features soaps,jellies, jewelry and other Ken-tucky artisan products and giftbaskets.

With her Victory rolled hairand red-lipped smile, Hinestalks about Ed-Mar Dairy’scheese and offers a taste.

“Every one of us has sam-ples,” she said. “We know ourfood can be a little more ex-pensive than in the supermar-ket, but it’s locally grown andsustainably raised. People areinterested in being more con-nected to their food.”

Vintage Fair has eclectichandmade items

Hines oversees the market’sVintage Fair every month,which features a variety ofeclectic handmade items andantiques.

Her fascination with historyis visible in her meat case.

“We have ‘city chicken,’something not a lot of peopleknow about anymore,” Hinessaid. “A long time ago, chickenwas a luxury. They might killone chicken a week for Sundaydinner. You couldn’t just go tothe store and buy chicken, sosome butchers would skewercubed pork and call it ‘citychicken.’”

A meat supplier found avintage “city chicken” moldfor her to use.

“I like bringing back thingsfrom the old days,” she said.“People can come in here and

see things they haven’t seen ina long time.”

Hines has made sure themarket is connected to thecommunity, too. Especially themilitary community. As a U.S.Navy veteran, and the fourthgeneration of women in herfamily to have served, Hines isprocuring four special parkingspaces for military members.Two for Purple Heart honor-ees, one for any veteran andone for a Blue or Gold StarMother.

Col. Don Lambert is one ofthe market’s original tenants atThe Colonel’s Creamery.

Although the outdoor mar-ket is open May through Octo-ber, the indoor market is openseven days a week, year-round.Approximately half are openon Mondays, but Lambert’spremium ice cream is acces-sible every day.

‘People care more aboutfood than they used to’

“A lot of people value thebenefit of having better qualityfoods,” he said. “I think thetime is right because there’s atrend for knowing what ingre-dients are in your food. Peoplecare more about it than theyused to.”

Lambert said many of themarket businesses collaboratetogether. He said he turned toColonel De for spices when hewas creating the Colonel’sDarn Hot Brown, a flavor simi-lar to the famous Cincinnati-style chili.

“We each really care aboutevery one of our products, andwe help each other,” he said.“These are specialty artisanproducts.”

Lambert has served more

than 90 original flavors sincehe opened, and his case of 16different ice creams is con-stantly changing. Many aremade from market produce.

“I use Kentucky berries,fruits, pumpkins,” he said.“Persimmon ice cream, honeyand lavender, raspberry mo-cha. There’s always a variety.”

The Colonel also servesunusual flavors such as maplebacon, spiced rum raisin, cher-ry pomegranate habanero andpopcorn.

“There’s always somethingdifferent to try,” Lambert said.

Afishionados hooked onidea of a little shop

John LaFontaine of Afishio-nados fish market obviouslykeeps things fresh as well.

After many years in therestaurant business, LaFon-taine got hooked on the idea ofa little shop with less overheadand fewer employees.

“This area needed a placelike this,” he said. “There wasnothing like this anywherenear here, only in Findlay Mar-ket.”

Afishionados has fish, mus-sels, sea scallops and salmonflown in every other day fromMaine, California, Scotlandand other places.

LaFontaine also preparessoups, spreads and specialtieslike lobster ravioli and lobstermac and cheese. The shopfeatures some frozen shrimp,crab legs and some types offish.

“We all work together inhere,” he said. “If I need sau-sage for gumbo, I get it fromAllison. We all use Colonel De’sspices. It’s a good little com-munity in here and we can allbenefit the rest of the commu-nity.”

Today really was a sim-ple country pleasureskind of day.

Son Shane brought histhree girls over and I tookthe two oldest ones, Eva,7, and Emerson, almost 3,

for a walkdown to theEast ForkRiver. Thegirlscaughtcrawdads,tiny fishandscooped uplots ofshells andother trea-

sures from the shallowwater.

I didn’t realize so muchtime had passed by untilShane came walkingdown with baby Ellery inhis arms. “Time for Emer-son’s nap,” he said.

So we went back to thehouse and even thoughShane didn’t stay forlunch I did have all themakings ready for thissimple pizza. I was alsogoing to photograph thegirls making the pizza forthis column. But sincethat didn’t happen, I’llshare a photo of the rea-son why: two little girlsenjoying, as I said, “sim-ple country pleasures.”

Kids can make easy sunflower pizzaSunflower pizza

The little ones will love making this. Good evenwith just cheese.

1 can flaky biscuits, 10 ouncesPizza sauceMozzarellaOptional toppings: pepperoni, chopped bell

peppers, mushrooms, onions, etc.

Preheat oven to 400. Separate dough into 10biscuits. Place 1 biscuit in center of cookie sheet linedwith foil and sprayed. Arrange remaining biscuits incircle, edges slightly overlapping, around centerbiscuit. Gently press with your hand into a 10-inchcircle. This makes your sunflower. Spread a thin layerof sauce on top.

Mediterranean chicken with orange marmalade sauceLately I’ve been using thighs for this recipe. I promised this recipe to a young man

whose name I don’t remember. He stopped to chat with me at the store. Funny that I can’tremember his name but do remember very clearly what he wanted, so here it is: A reallygood-tasting, fairly easy, main dish for chicken.

4-6 boneless skinless breast halves or thighsSalt, pepper, flourOlive oil3/4 to 1 cup white wine3 tablespoons lemon juice1 heaping teaspoon minced garlic or more1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes or more1/4 cup thawed undiluted orange juiceUp to 1-1/2 cups orange marmalade

Salt and pepper chicken, dredge in flour. Saute in oil, browning well on both sides.Keep warm. Pour wine in pan and cook, stirring to bring brown bits up. Add lemon juice,garlic, red pepper and half of the orange juice. Bring to boil and cook about 3 minutes.Stir in 1 cup marmalade and rest of orange juice.

Taste and add more marmalade if desired. Serve on bed of rice or couscous withsauce poured over chicken.

JUNE 18, 2015 • CAMPBELL COMMUNITY RECORDER • A9

Last week’s question:What should Cincinnati city

leaders and residents do to curtailthe recent trends of gun-relatedcrimes in the city?

“If you want a gun have topass a background and IQ test.It will sift through criminalsand stupid people. Combo!”

Brockman Heather

“Criminals get guns withoutfollowing the current back-ground checks that have to bedone now.”

James Bartley

“Stricter punishment . Nobail allowed with gun crimes.”

Karen Swanson Dietz

“Stiffer gun-related laws,

etc.! More jail time! If you takea life and found guilty of doingso you should get the death pen-alty with no wait time, should becarried out right after court.”

Dorothy Crank Pettit

“They need more safety pa-trols and people need to be will-ing to help.”

John Scales

“Programs, church and po-lice. You could call it PCP. Thenmaybe people would try it. Pro-grams to teach young peoplehow to succeed in American so-ciety. Use three hours of theschool day in those areas toteach things that their parentswon’t, like building retirementsand how to interview for jobs.Job placement programs thathelp young people find ca-reers.”

Bethany Pancerzewski Spence

“Build a 25-foot concretewall with razor wire at the top.Remove all children then floodthe area with heroin, alcoholand more guns .”

Mike Fryman

“People need to pray! OnlyGod can fix this!”

Anna Merlo

“What can they do? It is up toevery individual to make a deci-sion to do crimes ... nothing canbe done. Police are not aroundwhen the crime is committed.The suspect knows that.”

Carl Wilhelmy

“More gun control. My forkmade me fat and guns kill peo-ple.”

Rob Stone

“Make the city limits smallerand have surrounding citiestake care of some of this crap.More Neighborhood Watchgroups. We all have seen first-hand what the mother did to herson in Baltimore on national TV.Stiffer penalties, send them all

to hard labor work camps orjust cane them like they do inother countries.”

Arin Hargett

“I think if there were stifferpenalties it could help. Prison/jail should be so miserable thatno one would ever want to go inthe first place. We got peoplecommitting crimes just to getback in the damn place for freefood and cable TV.”

Terry Ransom

“I believe that the changesthat are being implementednow are a good place to begin.”

Cheryl Burke Curtis

CH@TROOM

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONWhat is your favorite summervacation story (something thatyou personally experienced)?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via email. Send youranswers to [email protected] withCh@troom in the subject line.

With 120, the com-monwealth of Ken-tucky holds thedistinction of hav-

ing the third most counties ofany state in the nation. Whilethis sometimes can be a bless-ing for our populace, as mostwould agree that governmentcloser to the people governsbest, at times it can be a bit ofa stumbling block as we cantend to be territorial and putblinders on refusing to see theoverall benefits of large-scaleprojects.

We in Northern Kentuckyhave long been able to workthrough some of these issuesby blurring county lines andtaking a more regional per-spective. These partnershipshave resulted in our area work-ing together in such vital areasas infrastructure, education,health care and tourism. Muchof the success in Northern

Kentucky has been the resultof our leaders, both civic andgovernmental, having the abil-ity to set aside artificial bound-aries and truly work togetheras a team.

To that end, in 1989 theNorthern Kentucky LegislativeCaucus requested the regionform the Northern KentuckyConsensus Committee, whichis comprised of leaders from avariety of backgrounds in-

cluding government, businessand community organizations.This committee was chargedwith the task of prioritizingmajor capital projects thatwould benefit our region as awhole. Since then, that commit-tee has done so every otheryear, coinciding with the bien-nial budget process underta-ken by the Kentucky GeneralAssembly.

The Northern KentuckyConsensus Committee hasdone excellent work in thisarea and the fruits of theirlabors are evident each day aswe see examples such as theNorthern Kentucky Conven-tion Center, Bank of KentuckyCenter, and the campuses ofGateway College. Just thesethree projects are some of theshining stars for our regionand we can easily recognizethe benefits we gain fromthem.

As preparations begin forthe 2016 General Assembly, theNorthern Kentucky ConsensusCommittee is once again dili-gently soliciting project pro-posals and information andprioritizing projects for us topresent this upcoming Janu-ary. The thought, which hasbeen successful in the past, isthat these projects are morelikely to receive funding andcome to fruition if our entireregion speaks with one clearand united voice.

It is important that citizensand organizations throughoutour region seriously considerprojects they would like to seebe considered by the commit-tee. If you would like to make asuggestion, we encouragethose with ideas to submitthem to the Northern Ken-tucky Chamber of Commerce.Applications for the projectscan be received from and sub-

mitted to Alex Kraemer, man-ager of public affairs for theNorthern Kentucky Chamberof Commerce, by calling 859-578-6386 or emailing akraem-er@nky chamber.com.

Experience has proven thatwhen Northern Kentucky’sleaders, both in the private andpublic sectors, work togetherand help supply legislatorswith clear goals, these part-nerships can result in greatventures that benefit us all.

State Rep. Addia Wuchner, R-Bur-lington, has served the 66th HouseDistrict, which consists of a portionof Boone County, since 2005. Shechairs the Northern Kentucky Legis-lative Caucus. Sen. Wil Schroder,R-Wilder, is in his first term repre-senting the 24th Senate Districtconsisting of Bracken, Campbell andPendleton counties. He is vice chairof the Northern Kentucky LegislativeCaucus.

NKY feedback crucial in planning budget

Sen. WilSchroderCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

Rep. AddiaWuchnerCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

It’s time to catch our breathafter a busy month of heritage-based events in May – starting

with the Ken-tucky Derby,followed byNational Trav-el and TourismWeek, thenmore festivals,street fairs,spring flings,May Days andcelebrations ofbourbon, mu-sic, food, art,cars, hikes,

bikes and horses than any oneperson could possibly take in.

The Kentucky HeritageCouncil and communitiesaround the state also spon-sored activities to commem-orate May as National HistoricPreservation Month, an annualobservance first championedby the National Trust for His-toric Preservation in 1973.Preservation Month is seen asan opportunity to demonstratehow historic places fuel heri-tage tourism and local econom-ic revitalization, and to raiseawareness about why historicsites are important to ourshared heritage and worthy ofpreservation.

Events ranged from housetours, to educational programs,to awards highlighting placesthat have been saved from thewrecking ball or demolition by

neglect. Many of these trans-formations are dramatic anddemonstrate that buildingsoften deemed beyond preser-vation are, in fact, not.

While the idea for HistoricPreservation Month is to cele-brate successes and focus onthe positive, some years theact of “celebrating” is not al-ways in order. Kentucky com-munities continue to lose his-toric buildings and sites at analarming rate – the very tangi-ble assets that tell the uniquestory of our state’s history, andcreate a reason for people tocome here seeking an authen-tic experience.

It seems clear that by re-pairing, reusing and celebrat-ing our traditional places, weencourage sustained vibrancyand pride in our communities.Who can argue that redevel-opment projects like 21c Mu-seum Hotels, National HistoricLandmarks like ChurchillDowns and Keeneland, locallandmarks like the BeecherHotel in Somerset, or historicMain Streets in communitieslike Maysville and Paducah donot significantly contribute tothe local and state economy?

Time and again, projectsthat maintain or incorporatehistoric buildings are found toenrich and enhance a commu-nity’s sense of place. Thinkabout all the fun events thathappen here during May and

throughout the year. Howmany of these take place athistoric sites or in historicbuildings, along historic MainStreets, at state parks, protect-ed battlefields, or along lakesand rivers traversed by histor-ic bridges?

For communities of all sizeswith the vision and will to hon-or their past, the KentuckyHeritage Council’s Main StreetProgram has proven that his-toric buildings can be hugeassets, given the proper in-vestment of time and effort,and of course, money. Since1979 this program can docu-ment $3.86 billion of privateinvestment leveraged andsupported by public funds,impacting more than 100 com-munities over nearly four dec-ades – all of which would lookvery different today withoutthis intervention. I am clearlybiased, but I believe Kentuckyis home to some of the mostbeautiful and inviting down-towns in the country. Interest-ing architecture combinedwith a strong sense of place, anentrepreneurial spirit andcommunity pride are essentialingredients in each successstory.

Preserving history critical to economy

CraigPottsCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

The U.S. House of Repre-sentatives is expected to votenext week on a bill to estab-

lish what iscalled TradePromotionAuthority orTPA.

TPA is alongstandingand provenpartnershipbetweenCongress andthe Presidentthat enablesCongress to

set negotiating objectives andrequires the executivebranch to consult extensivelywith legislators during nego-tiations. These agreementsallow businesses to generateeconomic growth and jobcreation here at home.

Specifically, TPA enablesmanufacturers, service pro-viders and farmers acrossthe commonwealth to sellgoods and services to the 95percent of the world’s cus-tomers living outside theUnited States. According tothe U.S. Chamber, one inthree manufacturing jobs inthe U.S. depends on exports,and one in three acres onAmerican farms is plantedfor export.

A recent study by the

Business Roundtable showedthat international trade, in-cluding exports and imports,supports 529,278 Kentuckyjobs, which is more than 1 in5. Kentucky exported $26.3billion in goods and $4.6 bil-lion in services in 2013 alone.Of Kentucky’s 4,569 export-ers, 80 percent are small andmedium-sized companieswith less than 500 workers.Whether it’s cars, agricul-ture, bourbon or jet engines,Kentucky jobs depend onexpanding U.S. trade.

The U.S. is negotiating theTrans-Pacific Partnershipwith 11 of the world’s mostdynamic economies in theAsia-Pacific Region. The U.S.is also negotiating the Trans-atlantic Trade and Invest-ment Partnership with theEuropean Union, the largestmarket for U.S. business. Tomake these job-creatingagreements a reality, Con-gress must approve TPA.

Passing this legislationenhances Congress’ role inthe trade process and ensuresfuture presidents, regardlessof party, will have the toolsthey need to secure tradeagreements for our workers.

Dixie Heights running backLuke Zajac had a brilliant sen-ior season in which he helpedlead the Colonels to their first-ever state championship gameappearance. Thursday night headded another career highlightas he starred in the NorthernKentucky Football CoachesAssociation East-West SeniorAll-Star football game at ScottHigh School.

Zajac was named the UCHealth Player of the Game ashe racked up 199 all-purposeyards, including 117 receivingand 82 rushing, and caught a16-yard touchdown pass whileleading the East All-Stars to a28-7 win over the West.

“(Zajac’s) such a strongkid,” said Newport CentralCatholic coach Dan Wagner,who coached the East All-Stars. “And he doesn’t say aword – he just plows you overand then gets back in the hud-dle. I love that kid. Now I un-derstand why they were sogood last year and why theybeat us so bad.”

Simon Kenton linebackerBarry Deaton was named theplayer of the game for theWest.

The East team, made up ofplayers from Bellevue, BishopBrossart, Campbell County,Covington Catholic, Dayton,Dixie Heights, Highlands,Holmes, Newport and New-Cath, got out to an early leadover the West team that con-sisted of players from Beech-wood, Boone County, Conner,Cooper, Holy Cross, Lloyd,Ludlow, Ryle, Scott and SimonKenton. Beechwood’s NoelRash coached the West.

Zajac made his presencefelt on offense throughout theentire game. He totaled 133all-purpose yards in the first

half, with a 47-yard catch-and-run in the first quarter and a39-yard run in the second onfourth-and-1 that set up theEast’s first touchdown. Threeplays later Bellevue’s ZachBarrett jumped up and hauledin a perfectly lofted pass byCovCath’s Adam Wagner for a21-yard score. An incompletepass on the two-point conver-sion attempt left the score at6-0 with 7:31 to play in the half.

The West responded later inthe quarter when they recov-ered a punt at their own 47with 3:05 left before halftime.Lloyd quarterback HaydenMolitor attempted five straightpasses on the drive – two ofwhich he completed to Beech-wood’s Joe Studer for gains of16 and 33 yards – and thenScott’s Eli Sowder plunged infrom four yards out. Lloyd’sSergio Gutierrez booted the

extra-point to give the West the7-6 lead.

With just 1:43 left, the Eastorchestrated a seven-play,50-yard drive that culminatedin a 16-yard double-reversetouchdown pass from Newportquarterback Paul Price to Za-jac. Price’s two-point conver-sion run made the score 14-7 athalftime.

“That’s why we made theall-star team, because we’regood, I guess,” Price said abouthis team’s offensive success.“(Zajac) and I had a connectionfor the three days of practicethat we had, but I thought weplayed well as a whole team.”

For Zajac, the transition toplaying with the East quarter-backs was an easy one. Muchlike his high school quarter-back Drew Moore at Dixie,both Price and Wagner aremobile guys who like to create

with their feet, and then look tocheck down when in trouble.

“They picked up reads justlike Drew,” Zajac said. “Wewere firing on all cylinders. Iwas just reading off the line-man, and it was just like it waslast season.”

Price scored again when hesnuck the ball inside the leftpylon on an option keeper for atwo-yard touchdown. Anotherfailed two-point conversionattempt kept the score at 20-7.

The East turned the gameinto a rout early in the fourthquarter. Price had a 39-yardrun that took his team insidethe West’s 10 yard line, andthen Newport running backDominick Joseph pounded hisway in from four yards out afew plays later. and NewCath’sBrady Gray tacked on thetwo-point conversion to makethe final score 28-7.

Since the weather isnice, are you thinking ofstarting to walk thisyear? My husband and I

enjoywalkingthroughour neigh-borhood,but whenit’s ex-tremelyhot, rainy,or icy (youknowthose dayswill be

here again before youknow it!) we often turnto our treadmill.

You may be con-cerned that if you walkon a treadmill it will notbe as good a workout aswalking outside. Thetruth is they both pro-vide great benefits toyour body, but there aresome small differences.Here are some consider-

ations when comparingwalking outside versusthe treadmill.

» If you are using atreadmill and leave it ata flat incline, you maynot burn as many calo-ries as you would if youwere walking outside.The ground naturallyhas hills and valleys andyour body always has toadjust to the landscape.In order to add a littlemore calorie burning toyour treadmill walk, usethe incline function. Infact, just inclining to 1percent can help youburn more calories andget your heart rate up alittle faster.

» If you are on atreadmill, try not to holdthe handrails. If youhold onto the handrail,you will burn fewercalories. It is also notgood for your posture.Remember when you

are walking, you wantyour arms to move free-ly and your head to beup straight.

» Both indoor andoutdoor walking re-quires you to use yourbalance. However, whenwalking outdoors youmay have to dodgecracks and take smallsteps. This also adds alittle more challenge tothe walk. Walking out-side, you also may walkdownhill. This uses dif-ferent muscles thanwalking on a flat surfaceor uphill. Very fewtreadmills have the abil-ity to provide downhillwalking.

» Because the tread-mill is flat, if you havenot been active for awhile, the treadmillprovides a safe and easyway to start walking.

» Many treadmillshave programs that

allow for a warm-up,walking challenge andcool down. This provides

you with a challenge thatyou may not get outside.

» If you do not have asidewalk or a place towalk safely, treadmillsare a terrific alternative.

» You never knowwhen the weather mayprevent you from walk-ing outside. The tread-mill allows you to walk,no matter what it lookslike outside.

» If you get boredeasily while walking, atreadmill may allow youto walk while you arewatching TV or listeningto music.

Question: The leavesare turning black on myflowering pear tree.Should I cut off the deadbranch tips?

Answer: We havebeen getting a lot of callsabout pears, apples andcrabapples showingthose symptoms. Theproblem is due to a bacte-rial disease known as

“fire blight” since in-fection causes the branchtips to turn black as ifseared by a fire.

It can also attack oth-er members of the rosefamily such as haw-thorns, serviceberry,pyracantha and cotoneas-ter, but infection is minoron these plants.

Callery Pears, such as

Bradford, Aristocrat orCleveland Select, shouldbe avoided or replaced,not only due to their fi-reblight susceptibilityand their weak branchingstructure, but also be-cause they are exoticinvasives, taking overthe woods of NorthernKentucky as the birdsspread the small fruits

full of seeds.The fire blight

organism, Erwiniaamylovora, sur-vives from oneyear to the next atthe margins ofpreviouslyformed branchand trunk can-kers. In mostyears, fire blightbegins during thebloom period, when polli-nating bees, other insectsand blowing rain movethe bacteria from branchto branch and tree totree. Fire blight is gener-ally favored by highrelative humidity orrainy conditions, andtemperatures of 65 to 70degrees. Under favorabledisease conditions, bacte-

rial populationscan build-up rap-idly.

As long as theenvironment isfavorable, it willcontinue to spreadthrough petal fall.The disease hasbasically stoppedkilling backbranches for thisyear, but unless

corrective measures aretaken next February/March, the killing backof branches will resumenext spring.

The key to manage-ment is preventing theinfection of flowers.Once flowers becomeinfected, they serve as asource of inoculum forthe rest of the tree. Since

the disease has gonedormant for the summer,you should wait until lateFebruary or early Marchto prune out the deadbranch tips.

The killed branch tipswill be black at the end ofwinter, when you will cutjust a few inches belowthe killed tissue. Youshould burn all diseasedwood after removing it.Then you can spray thetree with copper sulfateduring late winter dor-mancy (February/March)to kill any bacteria thathave overwintered. Nopruning should be doneduring the growing sea-son, since that encour-ages new growth whichis most susceptible tofire blight.
