A4 Parents getting their stu- dents to opt out of Common Core tests is unheard of in Northern Kentucky school dis- tricts and forbidden by state education officials. Kentucky was the first U.S. state to adopt Common Core in 2010. Kentucky Education Com- missioner Terry Holliday, upon hearing about public calls for parents to file an opt-out for their child from Common Core, sent a letter to all school districts in April 2014. “In Kentucky, districts are under no obligation to honor a parent’s request to ‘opt out’ of the Common Core State Stan- dards, curriculum or testing,” Holliday wrote in his letter. A March 10 Enquirer article detailed how parents are opting out of Common Core in Ohio. A check of Northern Ken- tucky school districts told a dif- ferent story. The Community Recorder asked officials if par- ents and students are seeking to avoid Common Core tests. The answer was no. Not so fast, says Terry Do- noghue of Kentuckians Against Common Core. Kentucky is not the only state with a policy forbidding an opt-out of Common Core, but parents’ constitutional rights al- low them to do what is right for their children, Donoghue said. “They have no right to stop that,” he said. A national United Opt Out website available at bit.ly/1Dt70v5 gives parents guidance to file a civil rights complaint against a principal or administrator for stopping an parent’s opt-out request, the Hebron resident said. Boone County Schools has received zero requests to opt out of testing, and if Boone offi- cials received such requests, they would not be granted. Exemptions are “just not al- lowed,” said Ben Lusk, Boone’s director of assessment. All Boone County adminis- trators, teachers and coaches received a letter from the dis- trict office before school start- ed in August explaining “dis- tricts are under no obligation to honor a parent’s request to ‘opt out’ of the Common Core State Standards, curriculum or test- ing.” “We’ve had 100 percent par- ticipation since time immemo- rial,” Lusk said. “I do not know of a single in- stance where a parent or stu- dent deliberately evaded state testing or Common Core,” said David Rust, director of academ- ic services for Bellevue Inde- pendent Schools. Rust said he also doesn’t have records of students miss- ing the entire five-day window of state testing and then not tak- ing a makeup test. Campbell County Schools has not received any requests to opt out of testing, according to an email from Connie Pohl- geers, district spokeswoman. Some students have been grant- ed state-approved exemptions for extraordinary medical cir- cumstances from taking state tests, Pohlgeers said. Fort Thomas Independent Schools Superintendent Gene Kirchner said he is not aware of any requests to opt out of Com- mon Core. No situations where a student was sick and didn’t make up a test have happened either, Kirchner said. “This has not been an issue in our district,” he said. According to Jess Dykes, Kenton County Schools director of public relations and commu- nity engagement, no exemp- tions will be made when it comes to Common Core testing because it is against state poli- cy. “We don’t have any parents asking,” she said. “We do get re- quests from all over the nation from other districts to visit our district to see how well (Com- No Common Core opt-outs in NKY schools Community Recorder See TESTS, Page A2 FORT THOMAS — Each of Lent’s sev- en Fridays, fish is what’s Masonic lodge brothers are cooking.

ALEXANDRIA — Police are in- vestigating reports of two white men in a black Toyota car at- tempting to break into southern Campbell County homes. Campbell County Police De- partment officers have re- ceived four burglary reports and two attempted burglary re- ports since Feb. 12. The Commu- nity Recorder had an exclusive story about how a neighbor’s tip led police to arrest three men on burglary charges on Fender Road Feb. 11. Police responded March 10 to a report of a man knocking on a door on Oneonta Road in Cali- fornia around 7 p.m. When the door was answered, a man ran away to a waiting black Toyota, possibly a Corolla, said Eric Sur- ber, a detective for Campbell County. “They knocked on the door real hard like it was the police,” Surber said. And in the morning of Feb. 23 a resident in the 1700 block of Poplar Ridge Road in Alexan- dria reported being able to “slam” a door shut on a white male as he was opening the door. “A white male, approximate- ly 6 feet tall and skinny opened her front door and gained par- tial entry to her residence,” ac- cording to the police report. Afterward, the white male fled in a black Toyota car, ac- cording to the report. Residents of the home on Poplar Ridge Road declined to discuss the attempted burglary with The Community Recorder. Descriptions of suspects in the attempted burglaries match, said Eric Surber, a de- tective for Campbell County Po- lice. Typically, burglars knock first to see if anyone is home while the residents seem to be away, he said. “If there’s nobody’s home, they will kick in the door if there is no answer,” Surber said. If someone does answer, bur- glars don’t always run away, he said. “Usually, they’re trying to make some kind of excuse like they need directions,” Surber said. A burglar eventually caught in previous years even wore a hard hat and carried a clipboard saying he was with the phone company when confronted, Sur- ber said. Police have no specific sus- pects in the attempted burglar- ies, and are looking for potential connections with reported bur- glaries, Surber said. Reported burglaries: » A daytime burglary was reported at 7909 Stonehouse Road, Melbourne Feb. 20. cash, jewelry and a television were reported being taken. Access to the home was made through an unlocked window, according to a police report. » A rifle, ammunition and jewelry were reported taken at 7331 Licking Pike Cold Spring, at 5:49 p.m. Feb. 17. Entry into the home was through an un- locked window, according to a police report. » A resident reported find- ing the front door kicked in and tools, crystal and medication were taken during the day Feb. 12 at 8500 Washington Trace, California, » A back window was pried open and broken at 11638 Sky- view Drive, Alexandria, accord- ing to a police report. Pry marks were also found around a door, and a bottle of medication was taken, according to the report. Patrol officers are out watch- ing for the suspects, Surber said. “Hopefully, we’ll catch these guys eventually,” he said. Police are asking people to call non-emergency police dis- patch to report suspicious activ- ity at 859-292-3622. Police tracking attempted burglaries Chris Mayhew [email protected]

Parents getting their stu-dents to opt out of CommonCore tests is unheard of inNorthern Kentucky school dis-tricts and forbidden by stateeducation officials.

Kentucky was the first U.S.state to adopt Common Core in2010. Kentucky Education Com-missioner Terry Holliday, uponhearing about public calls forparents to file an opt-out fortheir child from Common Core,sent a letter to all schooldistricts in April 2014.

“In Kentucky, districts areunder no obligation to honor aparent’s request to ‘opt out’ ofthe Common Core State Stan-dards, curriculum or testing,”Holliday wrote in his letter.

A March 10 Enquirer article

detailed how parents are optingout of Common Core in Ohio.

A check of Northern Ken-tucky school districts told a dif-ferent story. The CommunityRecorder asked officials if par-ents and students are seeking toavoid Common Core tests. Theanswer was no.

Not so fast, says Terry Do-noghue of Kentuckians AgainstCommon Core.

Kentucky is not the onlystate with a policy forbidding anopt-out of Common Core, butparents’ constitutional rights al-low them to do what is right fortheir children, Donoghue said.

A national United Opt Outwebsite available atbit.ly/1Dt70v5 gives parentsguidance to file a civil rights

complaint against a principal oradministrator for stopping anparent’s opt-out request, theHebron resident said.

Boone County Schools hasreceived zero requests to optout of testing, and if Boone offi-cials received such requests,they would not be granted.

Exemptions are “just not al-lowed,” said Ben Lusk, Boone’sdirector of assessment.

All Boone County adminis-trators, teachers and coachesreceived a letter from the dis-trict office before school start-ed in August explaining “dis-tricts are under no obligation tohonor a parent’s request to ‘optout’ of the Common Core StateStandards, curriculum or test-ing.”

INDEPENDENCE — Resi-dents, property ownersand travelers who use Ky.536 are invited to sharetheir comments and con-cerns about the corridor’sconstruction during anopen house from 4-7 p.m.Tuesday, March 24, at Si-mon Kenton High School,11132 Madison Pike.

The Ohio-Kentucky-In-diana Regional Council ofGovernments planned theevent as first of threemeetings to start OKI’s Ky.536 Scoping Study, whichwill identify changes to im-prove safety.

“Safety is the foremostconcern,” said KentonCounty Judge-executiveKris Knochelmann, whoalso serves as second vicepresident of the OKI boardof directors and projectdevelopment team chairfor the study.

“This stretch of roadhas one of the region’shighest crash rates – morethan three times the state-wide average. It also has

drastic elevation changesand poor sight lines whichcan make travel throughthe area challenging andhazardous to drivers, par-ticularly in poor weather,”Knochelmann said. “It’sour obligation to identifyimprovements that will en-sure a continuous, effi-cient and safe flow of traf-fic across the Ky. 536 cor-ridor.”

Improvements havebeen identified for most ofthe roadway and work is invarying stages of plan-ning, design and imple-mentation.

However, improve-ments have not yet beendetermined for the portionthat extends between Ky.17, or Madison Pike, in In-dependence and the Camp-bell County line.

This 6.5-mile segmentof Ky. 536 is the only sec-tion of the entire corridorthat does not have a pre-ferred alternative or im-provement plan in place.This segment was left untillast because of its frag-mented connections, dras-tic elevation changes, poor

sight lines, broad range ofenvironmental factors,and, most importantly,high crash rates, accord-ing to Robyn Bancroft, thescoping study’s projectmanager.

Information will beposted on oki.org/536.

“Independence hasbeen the fastest-growingcity in Kenton County overthe past decade, and theforecast is for this stronggrowth to continue,” saidIndependence Mayor andOKI Board Member ChrisReinersmann. “Ky. 536 isvital to improving accessand safety to key residen-tial, employment, andcommercial destinationsthroughout Northern Ken-tucky.”

My favorite cookie sheet isdecades old. It cost a lot lessthan my restaurant quality

sheets which Ibought yearslater. When I usethat old cookiesheet, I findmyself smiling,rememberingwhen my boyswere little andhow they shapedcookie doughinto worms,tanks and bugsto bake on it.

That’s a piece of equipmentwith a history.

Whenever I have a speakingengagement about food orfamily, I like to ask partici-

pants what their most trea-sured kitchen item is. It seemslike just about everybody has afavorite utensil, pot, or gadget.“Mine is my mother’s sifter,”one lady said. Another men-tioned rolling pans from grand-ma. One young person I men-tored treasured his dad’sapron: “He wore that apronevery time he cooked dinner onthe grill. Now I wear it,” hesaid.

So don’t get rid of that well-loved kitchen item when youreplace it with new. Pass itdown to keep the traditions andmemories going.

Mike, a Clermont Countyreader, needs a recipe fordairy-free rolls that are suit-able for diabetics. Here’s a

good one. I baked these on myold cookie sheet and theyturned out just fine.

Can you help?Great Scott’s chowder:

Trish M. remembers this chow-der fondly. “Great Scott restau-rant made the best potato, cornand jalapeno chowder. I'vetried to duplicate it but it's justnot the same. I know they haveclosed but is there any chanceyou can get the recipe? It wasone of our families favorites.”

These plump dinner rolls are dairy and egg free.

Dairy free, egg free dinner rolls

Powdered creamer is used by more than a few bakers to achieve anice tasting, dairy-free dinner roll. I was surprised myself at how wellthese turned out. They tasted as good as my higher fat rolls. Nice along-side that Easter ham. These freeze well after baking.

Diabetic exchange: The diabetic exchange is 1-1/2 starch, 1/2 fat foreach roll. You can make these by hand or machine.

1 tablespoon rapid rise yeast plus a couple pinches sugar2-1/4 cups warm water (110-115 degrees)1/3 cup sugar1/3 shortening1/4 cup powdered nondairy creamer2-1/4 teaspoons salt5-6 cups bread flour

Preheat oven to 350. Dissolve yeast and pinches of sugar in warmwater. In a mixing bowl, add sugar, shortening, creamer, salt and 5 cupsflour. Add yeast and mix well on low speed. Turn to medium and beatuntil smooth. Add more flour if necessary to make a soft, but stickydough. Either knead it for 6-8 minutes by machine or by hand. If doingby hand, turn out on floured surface. Knead until smooth, like a baby’sbottom.

Place in bowl coated with cooking spray, turning once to coat top.Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch down and turn outonto lightly floured surface; divide into 18-24 pieces. Shape each pieceinto a roll. Place 2 inches apart on sprayed baking sheets. Cover and letrise until doubled, 30-45 minutes. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until lightgolden brown.

Fruited chicken salad from Lazarus

I have a file of department store restaurant recipes. As happensoccasionally, someone stopped me at the grocery and asked if I had arecipe for this particular one. Anyway, here’s the recipe with my sidenotes, from the Columbus store, I believe.

SaladMix together:

4 cups cooked chicken, cubed or chunked up8 oz. diced dates1 cup diced pineapple -- drained1 cup diced celery1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted if you want

DressingWhisk together:

2 cups Miracle Whip salad dressing1 teaspoon sugar1/4 cup evaporated milk2 tablespoons lemon juiceJuice from pineapple -- as needed

Pour dressing over salad and toss gently. This would be nice servedatop a lettuce leaf.

Diabetics can enjoy dinner rolls, too

A publication of

MARCH 19, 2015 • CAMBELL COUNTY RECORDER • A7

With just two legislativedays remaining in the 2015Regular Session of the Ken-tucky General Assembly, thefate of several major pieces oflegislation – the House Major-ity’s efforts to shore up theKentucky Teachers Retire-ment System (KTRS) andreduce heroin addiction – nowrest in the fate of conferencecommittees.

When it comes to illegaldrug use, few states havebeen hit as hard as Kentuckyover the last 15 years. Its us-age has grown dramatically,and not just in Kentucky. Ear-lier this month, the U.S. Cen-ters for Disease Control andPrevention reported that over-dose deaths attributed to thisdrug have gone up 400 per-cent nationally between 2000and 2013. For the Midwest, therate was 1,100 percent.

During thesession, Houseand Senatemembers havebeen workingon what we allhope will beanothergroundbreak-ing law. Lastweek when weadjourned forthe veto peri-od, I was

named to the conference com-mittee who will be meeting tofinish the job prior to ourconstitutionally mandateddeadline. The House bill thatwe passed last week proposesmuch harsher penalties forthose bringing heroin intoKentucky while expandingtreatment for the addicts. Pastlessons have taught us that wecannot incarcerate ourselves

out of this problem. The Ken-tucky Catholic Conferenceand Texas-based researchgroup “Right on Crime” haveendorsed parts of our heroineffort.

I have been an outspokenadvocate for the Good Samar-itan law and a local-optionneedle exchange program thatallows counties to opt out offor hardship reasons if neces-sary. Nearly two dozen statesalready have this in place. Tohelp get these programs upand running as soon as pos-sible, the House proposalrecommends shifting $10 mil-lion in the current two-yearbudget to these new pro-grams. We cannot afford towait until the next budgetcycle.

We’re also nearing anagreement with the Senate onlegislation I filed that would

expand the use of ignitioninterlocks for convicted DUIoffenders. The measure wouldsupplement hardship licenses– special licenses allowingpeople with suspended li-censes to drive to work,school and doctor’s appoint-ments – with ignition inter-locks, a device about the sizeof a mobile phone that iswired into the ignition systemof a vehicle. In the 24 statesthat have adopted the inter-lock program, deaths causedby drunken drivers have beenreduced by 30 percent. Ac-cording to Mothers AgainstDrunk Driving (MADD), therewere 167 drunk driving deathsin Kentucky in the recentyear. That’s 50 lives that couldhave been saved in one yearhad these provisions been inplace.

Two other important pieces

of legislation are still possiblefor next week’s final two days;these include stabilizing thestate’s highway funding andstrengthen the long-term fu-ture for the Kentucky Teach-ers’ Retirement System.

And finally, the House andSenate both passed the Breed-er’s Cup tax incentive HB 134that I sponsored and will besigned by the gvernor thisweek. This legislation is im-portant because of the signifi-cant, multi-million dollar eco-nomic impact on tourism-related activities that comefrom hosting the Breeder’sCup in Kentucky. The Breed-er’s Cup will return to Ken-tucky for the first time since2011.

CIVIC INVOLVEMENT

Most of us have probablyexperienced a sense of aggrava-tion when we go to a store orrestaurant and see people whoappear to be specimens of goodhealth parking in the handicap

spots close tothe store orrestaurant.

Some ofthose individ-uals are nothandicappedand do nothave a handi-cap sticker orthey may beabusing the useof the stickerthat belongs tosomeone else.

Perhaps you have been temptedto park in a handicap spot. TheKentucky General Assemblyhas addressed this problem andit may be helpful to review thesubstantial penalties that can beimposed for a violation of thehandicap parking laws.

The fine for parking illegallyin a parking space designatedfor those with disabilities is 10times more than it used to be.The fine is now $250 per occur-rence. When you add in the newtraffic court cost, a defendant islooking at total fines of approxi-mately $400. Those are certain-ly substantial penalties thatshould make people think twice.

The handicap parking lawsstate that 90 percent of thefines collected are forwarded tothe state’s Personal Care Assis-tance Program. The remaining

10 percent is distributed equallyamong all local law enforce-ment agencies in the county. .

Handicapped parking per-mits can be obtained on a tem-porary or permanent basis. Toobtain a temporary handicapparking permit, an applicationform needs to be filed at thecounty clerk’s office for aninitial three-month periodwhich can be renewed for anadditional three months. Proofof the disability must be provid-ed through a statement from alicensed physician that theapplicant is a person whosemobility, flexibility, coordina-tion, respiration, or perceptive-ness is significantly reduced bya temporary disability. Uponsubmitting an application andproof of permanent disability, apermanent handicap parkingpermit can also be obtainedfrom the county clerk.

The disability placard mustbe placed so that it can beviewed from the front or rearof the vehicle, preferably byhanging on the rearview mirror.It is illegal to display a placardwhen the person with the dis-ability is not in the vehicle.

If you have topics you wouldlike to have covered in thiscolumn, please contact myoffice by e-mail at [email protected], by phone at491-7700 or by mail addressedto 319 York St., Newport, KY41071.

MAYSVILLE, Ky. — Aric Rus-sell was touting the depth of hisCampbell County boys basket-ball team after its semifinal winover Pendleton County.

The Camels head coach ravedabout it a day later on March 10when the Camels’ two leadingscorers, Dre Jackson and MattWilson, sat the last four minutesof the second quarter with foultrouble. And that depth camethrough, propelling the Camelsto a 14-3 run to close the first halfand lift Campbell to an 89-57 winover district rival Scott in the 10th

Region final at Mason County.“I always thought when I took

over five years ago that thiswould be the year we had achance,” Russell said. “Last yearwas kind of a surprise: We cameout and had an unbelievable tour-nament. This year I felt we couldwin it. We’ve been ready. We’vebeen working all year to getready for tournament time andI’m really proud of our kids.”

The Camels (25-9) repeat as

regional champions.“It feels amazing,” said Jack-

son, who had 21 points. “We’renot satisfied. We want to go downto Rupp and make some noise.We have some experience nowso when we go there it won’t beanything new.”

Jackson, Campbell’s seniorguard, had 13 points in the firsthalf as the Camels built a 30-23lead. It was a half that had al-ready featured several runs. TheCamels quickly sprinted out to a

9-0 lead three minutes into thegame. Scott tied the game at 16late in the first period, then theCamels struck back with a 12-2spurt to lead at 28-18.

The Eagles put together amini-run at 5-2 and trailed 30-23when Jackson was called for acharging foul with less than fourminutes to play in the secondquarter, his third foul. Matt Wil-son, Campbell’s 6-foot-8 juniorcenter, was already on the benchwith two fouls.

The Eagles couldn’t converton offense on their next trip, andsenior Blake Losey respondedwith a 3-pointer for the Camels tomake the lead 33-23. The runcontinued until Campbell held a20-point lead at 44-24. Anotherthree by Losey and one by seniorJordan Day punctuated the run,and Jake Franzen and CraigNeltner scored key layups.

“When I came out, I was frus-trated but I knew my team coulddo it without me. We’re a team,we play together and we play de-fense,” Jackson said. “I wantedto set the tone and set the energy.Ihad a pretty bad game last night(in the semis) and I wanted to setthe energy for my team andforce them to guard me so Blakeand Matt would be open allgame.”

The spreading out of scoringcontinued in the third period.Cole Hegyi scored consecutivebuckets to push the Camels totheir largest lead at that point, 23(55-32), then Losey added twofree throws for a 25-point mar-gin. Hegyi had eight points onthe night.

Hegyi, Day and Neltner com-bined for 20 points in 46 minutesoff the bench.

“All three of them have beenplaying big minutes for us in thistournament I can’t say enoughabout them,” Russell said.“We’re playing our best (ball).We’re sharing the ball real well,rebounding, doing our things de-fensively. We adjust when weneed to adjust. The top eight allknow their role. It’s what wework for, to peak at the right timeand we’re doing it again.”

Jackson ended 8 of 12 fromthe floor and had four rebounds.Wilson was 8-for-9 from the fieldand posted 14 rebounds and twoblocks. Losey, who was a game-time decision because of abruised hip the night before, had16 points and three assists.

Campbell shot 33-for-58 fromthe floor (57 percent), 28-for-46from inside the arc. Scott shotjust 18-for-64 (28 percent).Campbell won the reboundingbattle, 47-32.

Camels win second regional basketball titleBy James [email protected]

JAMES WEBER/THE COMMUNITY RECORDER

The Camels pose with their championship trophy after the game March 10.

LEXINGTON, Ky. — In pastyears, Austin Myers was at leasta little disappointed when hedidn’t pin his opponent.

As he got closer to history,winning was the only thing thatmattered, and the CampbellCounty High School senior didn’tmind that his final high schoolmatch went the distance.

Myers beat Brandon Reed ofIroquois 15-4 in the KHSAA statechampionship match at 220pounds March 11 at Alltech Are-na. He finished 60-0 for the sea-son, winning his fourth state titleand finishing undefeated for hisentire high-school career in Ken-tucky.

“I did my goal, four-time statechamp,” he said. “It’s alwayswhat I wanted to do since I was akid. Every kid wants to be a four-time state champ.”

Among his five wins in thetournament, Myers had two ex-tremely quick wins of 12 andnine seconds. He pinned one op-ponent in the second period. Hisquarterfinal foe was ranked sec-ond in the state by KentuckyW-restling.com, and Myers shuthim out for a 16-0 technical falldecision.

In the finals against Reed, hisfoe’s main priority seemed to beplaying defense and preventingMyers from getting him on hisback. All four of his points camewhen Myers let him free for aone-point escape, and Reed wasunable to try any offensivemoves on Myers.

“Most people who wrestle me,they just want to try to make itthrough the match,” Myers said.

“He was stalling a little bit, butI’m used to it. He did a good job.”

Myers said he was enjoyinghimself during the tournament,and during the meet he seemedto smile more often than themore serious-minded competi-tors throughout the state.

“You have to have fun with itor you really won’t do it,” he said.“That’s why kids sign up forwrestling, to have fun. As long asyou’re winning, you’re havingfun. I knew I was getting closerto achieving my dream.”

Myers has a busy season com-ing up in the sport, with threeseparate out-of-state competi-tions coming up in the nextmonth. Next school year, he willattend West Virginia University,part of a 12-member recruitingclass that is ranked fifth in thenation, he said.

Myers will miss his time withthe Camels. “I’ll remember wewon the team title my freshmanyear,” he said. “Every year hasbeen a great year for our team.It’s a dream come true. I’ll al-ways remember my teammates.We have a lot of fun.”

The Camels finished fourth inthe team standings and had fiveother state placers.

Two Campbell County wres-tlers started the night by fallingin their state championshipmatches. Sophomore TannerYenter (51-10), ranked fourth go-ing in, lost to top-ranked Saul Er-vin of Union County (63-1) 5-2.Sophomore Brady Wells (44-6),also ranked fourth, fell 14-5 totop-ranked Jorge Vega of FernCreek (54-1). Yenter knocked offfoes ranked third and fifth earli-er in the day, and Wells beat thethird-ranked wrestler in his

class, 5-0, in the semis. Eli Matthews finished fourth

at 182, falling in the semifinals inovertime. Bryan Spahr was sev-enth at 138, winning three conso-lation bouts after losing in thesecond round.

Dakota Lillie finished eighthat 120, winning four consolationmatches after losing in the firstround.

MARCH 19, 2015 • CCF RECORDER • B7LIFE

Question: How sooncan I start planting myvegetable garden? Whatcan I plant first? Whichcrops need to be startedindoors under lights, togrow my own transplants,and how soon shouldthose seeds be started?

Answer: Normally, wewould already have gar-den crops coming up, butit has been difficult to getan early start in the gar-den this year due to allthe snow, rain and mudthis spring. The springgarden contains cool-season crops that areplanted during coolweather and are harvest-ed throughout the springand into early summer.

The seedsof most ofthese cropscan beplanteddirectly inthe gardensoil, whileothers arenormallystartedindoorsunderlights or in

a greenhouse, then trans-planted to the garden at alater date.

Spring garden plantsgrow best with relativelycool air temperatures (50to 65 degrees Fahrenheit)and are raised either fortheir leaves, stems or

flower buds. Peas aregrown for their immaturefruits. These crops pro-duce their growth duringspring’s short, cool days.If they are planted toolate, summer heat re-duces their quality byforcing some to flowerand form seeds (“bolt-ing”), and others to devel-op off flavors, bitterness,poor texture and lowyields.

Avoid these problemsby planting spring vegeta-bles as soon as the soilcan be worked in thespring, since some freez-ing temperatures will notinjure them. Plant eitherseeds or transplants,allowing the vegetables to

reach edible maturitybefore hot summer daysarrive. Plant as soon asthe soil is workable anddry enough so it does notform wet clods.

Do not work the soilwhen it is wet. Doing socan ruin the soil structurefor several years. Youshouldn’t dig, plow, oreven walk in wet, soggysoil. However, if yourgarden site is alreadyworked up (plowed, roto-tilled or dug up), and it’sdry enough to work in,you can begin plantingspinach, mustard, beets,and peas right away. Theywill germinate in cold soiland will tolerate somefreezing temperatures.

Cabbage, lettuce andkohlrabi transplants canalso be planted outside inmid-to-late March. At thesame time, you can plantasparagus and rhubarbcrowns, early potato seedpieces, onion sets, greenonions, and seeds of car-rots, collards, kale, rad-ishes, turnips and endive.In late March, you canalso make a second plant-ing of beets, mustard,spinach and peas.

Indoors under fluo-rescent lights, you shouldhave already startedseeds of onions, Brusselssprouts, broccoli, cab-bage, cauliflower, kohl-rabi, lettuce, and Chinesecabbage. It’s also time to

start seeds indoors ofpeppers, tomatoes, andeggplant, and to startgrowing sweet potatoslips. To do this, just laysome sweet potatoes ontheir sides, half-im-mersed in moist sand, putthem under lights (in-doors), and wait for theshoots (“slips”) to grow.After the sprouts getseveral inches long, cutthem off and root them inwater. Wait until June 1 toplant these rooted slipsoutdoors, since sweetpotatoes are very sensi-tive to cool temperature.

According to theAmerican Health Associ-ation (2005) as many as60 percent of older adultstake prescription medi-cines improperly. Someprescription drugs canhave adverse effectswhen combined withover-the-counter or otherprescription drugs. Reac-tions sometimes can besevere.

As we age, prescrip-tion medications maybecome necessary tomaintain health, recoverfrom an illness or controlthe symptoms of a chron-ic disease. When appro-priately prescribed andmonitored, medicationscan help improve theability to function andenhance quality of life.

We all have a responsi-bility to be actively in-volved in decisions aboutour medical care andtreatment. One way to dothis is to take charge ofprescription medications.

Here aresomepointers tohelp youmanageyour medi-cations.

» Lis-ten care-fully whenyour medi-cations arepre-scribed.

Ask questions to learnthe name of the drug, itspurpose and any poten-tial side effects. Ask forinformation in writing ifnecessary.

» Inform all of yourhealth care providers ofall medicines that youtake, including prescrip-tion medicines, over thecounter remedies, vita-mins, and herbal supple-ments.

» Always followyour doctor or pharma-cist’s instructions andany instructions printed

on the medication label.» Pay attention to

how often a medicationshould be taken and, if itshould or should not betaken with food or milkproducts.

» Do not stop takingprescription medicationuntil you speak to yourdoctor, even if you feelbetter.

» At least once ayear, bring all medica-tions to your doctor orpharmacist. They canhelp make sure that allyour medicines are com-patible and weed outanything that has ex-pired.

» Try to fill all of yourprescription at the samepharmacy so the pharma-cist can check for druginteractions.

» Consider askingsomeone for help insorting out or laying outyour medications for theday or week. Pill sizesand colors can be confus-ing and sometimes hav-ing another person helpwill ensure you take theright medication at theproper times.

One in every twoAmericans takes at leastone prescription medi-cine. If you are one ofthem, it is important toknow how to use yourmedication safely andappropriately to get themaximum health benefit.
