FLORENCE—AportionofU.S.42 in Florence is set to be namedtheKennyPriceMemorialHigh-way, in honor of the country en-tertainer and popular BooneCountian.

The portion stretches fromInterstate 75 toMall Road. Pricelived in that area and frequentlytraveled the road.

A ceremony, unveiling thesignage, will be 9:30 a.m. Satur-day, Sept. 14, tentatively in the

parkinglotattheWhiteCastleonU.S.42andLaCrestaDrive,Flor-ence.

The restaurant was one ofPrice’s favorite spots, accordingto Sen. John Schickel, who re-calls seeing him there often, sip-ping coffee.

“I remember meeting himand being starstruck,” saidSchickel, who spearheaded thenaming effort. The state senatorhad just joined the Florence Po-liceDepartment in1977whenhemet Price at theWhite Castle.

“Kenny Price is a Boone

County legend,” he said. “Hissuccess in country music issomething many of us remem-ber fondly. It’s important to rec-ognize those people who havegone before us – those peoplewhose shoulders we stand on.”

Schickel said he hopes thememorial in Price’s name willhonor “the indeliblemarkhe lefton Boone County and Americanculture.”

Nicknamed the “RoundMound of Sound,” Price had a

FLORENCE — Saying that BrandonBailey, 39, of Florence, is determined,may be an understatement.

The retired Marine almost lost hislife after being injured in 2009 whileserving in Afghanistan. In fact, he diddie, twice.

Bailey gazes down at the words“Dead man walking,” deeply scrolledonto his right armwith dark green ink.

“That’s why I have this,” he saidpointing to the tattoo. “I flat-lined twice.One of the early reports of the incidentsaid: ‘Five injured; onedead.’ I kept thatreport.”

The incident involved a Talibanbombblowinga6-tonHumveeabout138feet in theair.ThefiveotherMarines in-

side were ejected. Bailey’s uniform,however, caught onto the vehicle’sframe. The heavy war machine landedupside down and onto his pelvis, bend-

ing his torso, like an envelope’s flap.His family was notified, but given

fewdetails.Theyweren’tevensureifhewas alive. Hismother, Debbie Vannars-dale, also of Florence, was left wonder-ing: If he was alive, would hemake it?

He did.“Brandon is determined and stub-

born,” Vannarsdale said.Surviving, however, was only the be-

ginning of the battle.Theblast and theweight of theHum-

vee had crushed Bailey’s pelvis. Otherinjuries included: crushed right hip;three breaks in his left; five fracturedvertebra; three broken ribs; perforatedbowel; rupturedbladder;severedureth-ra; and severe concussion resulting inshort-termmemory loss.

At theWalterReedNationalMilitaryMedical Center in Bethesda, Md., Bai-ley and his family received a dire prog-nosis.

Chris said his fatherreally enjoyed living inBoone County and espe-cially enjoyed the compa-ny of the people.

“He lovedFlorence.Hefelt at ease here,” he said.“People would ask him allthe time, ‘Kenny, whydon’t you live in Nash-ville?’ He’d just say:‘Why? I like it here.’ He’dwalk through the (Flor-ence) Mall and peoplewould pass by him andsay, “Hey, Kenny.” Thefans were great.”

AUGUST 1, 2013 • FLORENCE-UNION RECORDER • A3NEWS

FLORENCE—WhenBobTownsend, 48, head ofFlorence public services,reflects upon his 14 yearsof directing the depart-ment he consistently useswords like “we, us andour.”

After all, it’s not his de-partment. Instead, it be-longs to each individualwho works within it fromthe mechanics to mainte-nance workers to the codeenforcement officers tothe grounds supervisor,just to name a few.

“The people make thedepartment what it is –which inmy opinion is oneof the best departments inthe region,” Townsendsaid. “How would I de-scribeus?Ourdepartmentis very talented and we’realways trying to do thebestwecanforthecitizensof Florence.”

On July 31, Townsendwill no longer be a part ofthe department. The pub-lic services director willretire after logging in hishours that day.

According to MayorDiane Whalen, Townsendwill be missed.

“We appreciate whathe’s done for us,” she said.“Our department headsare the ones who keepthings up and running.They make all us lookgood.”

Townsend, who spentfour years in the Armyshortly after graduatingfrom high school, hasserved in the city’s publicservices department for

20 years. He started in aco-op position to fulfill re-quirements for his degreefrom Northern KentuckyUniversity in 1993. ThatDecember, an opening foranassistant supervisorbe-came available. Townsendapplied and was hired. Hemoved up the ranks overthe years and became di-rector in 1999.

“There have been a lotof changes over theyears,” he said. “The de-partmenthasgrownbasedon the growth of the city.”

Florence is the secondlargest city in NorthernKentucky and one of thefastest-growingcommuni-ties in the state.

When Townsend start-ed there were just 17 em-ployees and an operatingbudget under $1.8 million.Today the department has65 full-time employeeswith an operating budgetof about $6.8 million, ex-cluding water purchases.

The department’s re-sponsibilities now includemanagement of the waterdistribution system, sani-tary sewer collection sys-tem, streets and pedestri-an system, code enforce-ment, fleet, ground andbuilding maintenance,parks and recreation, in-frastructure managementsystems and engineeringand inspection services.

ForTownsend,oversee-ing each operation hasbeen “fun.”

“I’ve always enjoyedthe variety in the work.There’s always somethingnew to learn, new technol-ogy,newtechniquestouse.It’s not a repetitive job.We’re always moving for-ward and learning newthings.”

Although he enjoys hiswork,he’s lookingforwardtoretirement.He’llbehon-ing his boating skills andspending time with hiswife of 28 years.

“I’m going to missworking with all the peo-ple internally and exter-nally,” he said. “I’m goingto miss being a part of allthe improvements andprojects to enhance thecity and our department.”

However, he said, it’s“the right time” for retire-ment.

“It’s been a blessing,”hesaidofhis job. “It’sbeena rewarding career. It’sbeen a good place to workwith good people. Overallmy biggest career accom-plishment has been to con-tinue to move the depart-ment forward and makethe department the best itcan be.”

PETERSBURG — Thelaughter and jokes (andsometimes fake names)flow freely in Petersburgon this breezy and unsea-sonably mild July after-noon.

As Timmy Isaacs, 13,

and his sister Linda, 7,each wrangle a somewhatunwilling sheep to demon-strate what needs to bedonewhen the animals areshown during exhibitionsand shows, fellow 4-H’ersgather in the yard.

Five pre-teens andteenagers situate them-selves on the bench of a

picnic table to discusstheir preparations for theupcoming Boone County4-H and Utopia Fair. Allfive are showing at leastone species of animal dur-ing the fair.

Members of the BooneCounty 4-H, they’re excit-ed and quick with thequips.

The camaraderie of thegroup is palpable and it’snot just the 4-H’ers. It’sWanda Isaacs, mother tothe two sheep wranglers,and fellow4-HfatherFredPorciello of Hebron, aswell as younger brothersand sisters not part of thediscussion.

You know that whenthis group gets together,they have fun, and aftertalking with them, youknow they work hard too.

4-H membersEach of the five has

been in 4-H for a numberof years.

Dale Mastin, 15, of Pe-tersburg has been in theclub for about five yearsand participates “for theresponsibility part of it.”

This is the second yearfor Nicholas Porciello, 10,of Hebron.

“I’m doing this becauseit’s fun to raise these ani-mals that we have.”

His sister, AdriannaPorciello, 13, has been in4-Hfor fouryears, but thisisonlyher thirdyear inan-imals. She discovered theclub through school.

Brent Mastin, 13, of Pe-tersburg, has been in theclub for about five years.Hewanted to “savemoneyand live better,” as well ashang out with friends.

Timmy has been in theclub for four years andjoined “because it’s fun toshow animals and be re-spectful and honest.”

Timewith friendsWhen asked what they

likemost about showing inthe fair, Brent is quick toreply “moo-la-la,” with alaugh.

“I like it because thefriends do it and I can talkto them,” Dale said.

“And the GF (girl-friend) too,” Brent jokes.

Adrianna agreed withDale, saying she finds itfun “youget to see all yourfriends.”

The group comes to aconsensus when discuss-ing the hardest part of thefairpreparations– therec-ord books required.

Hard work requiredBut despite the jokes, a

lot of work goes into prep-arations for the fair.

Fred Porciello saidthose working with steeroften start in December,getting the animals at 24-48 hours old and having tobottle feed them twice aday.

Most kids, he said, gettheir lambs in late Febru-ary, March or April andthose raising hogs get theanimals in late March andearly April.

They get a lot from theclub, like camaraderie, re-spect and responsibility,Porciello said.

“It teaches them to beverywell-roundedindivid-uals,” Wanda Isaacs said.

According to the par-ents, the 4-H’ers workhard to care for their ani-mals.

“You can’t leave thehouse for more than twohours at a time, maybethree, because you con-stantly have to have coolwater in front of them,”Porciello said.

Sale of ChampionsEveryone’s goal is to

make it to the Sale ofChampions.

According to Porciello,

the “whole goal is you pre-pare the best animal youcan prepare.”

Of the competinglambs, for example, only14 will be chosen to go tothe sale, what Isaacs calls“the best of the best.”

“You have to fight forthatspot toget in there,be-cause the Sale of Champi-ons is honestly wherethese kids earn their mon-ey back,” she said.

Participation, Isaacssaid, is a learning experi-ence for the kids who alsogrow emotionally “be-causetheylearnrealquickthat not everyone gets towin.”

“This isn’t like baseballwhereeveryonegets a tro-phy at the end,” said Por-ciello.

Hands-on learning,responsibility

While the fair is “agoodtime,” Christy Eastwood,Boone County extensionagent for 4-H and youthdevelopment, said it’s achanceforthekidstoshowhow hard they’ve worked.

“It teaches them re-sponsibility,” she said ofthe club. “With 4-H, it’shands-on learning.They’re not just learningbook stuff. They learn bydoing and that’s whatwe’re all about.”

Cheser, Hitzfield win Ky. honorsTwo Boone County adminis-

trators have received recogni-tion from their peers as stateadministrators of the year.

KarenCheser, deputy super-intendent in the Boone CountySchool District, and Tim Hitz-field, Conner High School prin-cipal, were recognized as ad-ministrators of the year at thedistrict and school level by theKentucky Association ofSchool Administrators.

“I was completely shockedand surprised,” Cheser said.“I’m completely humbled andfeel that this is a reflection ofall the people I’ve been blessedtoworkwith, whomakemebet-ter everyday.”

On the right trackKarenCheser said theKASA

recognition “validates” thework being done in the district.

“We are on the right track,”she said.

Cheser, a KASAmember formore than 24 years, has a longhistorywith the association andother professional organiza-tions including the KentuckyDepartment of Education. Inaddition to her service as a dis-trict level administrator, dur-ing her career she’s served as ateacher, coach, principal, RSCconsultant, and a distinguishededucator for the Kentucky De-partment of Education.

She wasn’t always in educa-tion. She started in public rela-tions for Procter & Gamble inAlabama just out of college.

Yet, she knewshe wantedmore. Finally,one day she real-ized she wantedto teach.

“My fatherwas a teacher.Hewas a progres-sive and innova-tive teacher,” she said. “I guessit was in my blood. I knew Ineeded to be a teacher – tomake a difference in life.”

According to Superinten-dent Randy Poe, who nominat-ed Cheser for the award, sheadvocates for changes in policyto impact children through in-volvement with KASA, otherinfluential education organiza-tions, and community partners.

“Karen continually sharesher talents and resources un-selfishly with districts andschools around the nation,” hesaid.

According to Poe, Cheser’smost significant accomplish-ment has been her impact onstudents who were struggling.She developed a Response toIntervention (RIT) programthat is a model across the coun-try and a PEAK Award winner,he said.

“Thousands of children havebeen impactedbyherwork,” heexplained. “In Boone County,special education referralshave decreased dramatically.She has also impacted strug-gling learners as a principaland distinguished educators,turning around schools in trou-ble.

“With Karen leading in our

district, I haveabsolute faith inour ability tokeep BooneCounty Schoolsat the forefrontof 21st centuryteaching andlearning.”

For Cheser,it’s all about the students. “Wetreat every student as if they’reour own child,” she said. That’sthe motto that has empoweredher to push through, make themost of resources, and moti-vate those around her. Hermain goal and that of the dis-trict is to “get every single stu-dent ready for college, careerand life.”

Being the bestTim Hitzfield shares that

goal. The Conner High Schoolprincipal has spent the betterpart of five decades at Conner.

First, hewas a student, grad-uating in 1979. Being a princi-pal, however, wasn’t always hisplan.

“I sort of fell into it,” he said.After college heworked var-

ious jobs and started subbingwithin theBooneCountySchoolDistrict. Hewas offered a long-er term subbing position to re-place a teacherwhohadConnerMiddle School. He decided togive it a go.

“I liked the teachingaspect,”he said. So, he stayed, and gothis teaching certificate. Hetaught atConnerHighSchool inthe late ‘80s and early ‘90s.Dur-ing a stint atOwenCountyHighSchool, he pursued his adminis-

trator’s certificate and servedas assistant principal. He re-turned to Conner in 2007 asprincipal.

During Hitzfield’s years atthe helm of Conner, the schoolhas undergone significanttransformations inclimate, cul-ture and academic standing.The rural school of 1,200 stu-dents has seen increases instate and national assessmentscores, including AP and ACTexams; more than 1,500 hoursof college credit earned, $9mil-lion in college scholarshipsawarded; and a 20 percentilecollege and career readinessrating achieved.

As a result, Conner is rated17th among high schools in thestate on ACT rankings.

“Our goal is to be the besthigh school in the county, thestate, and the country,” Hitz-field said. “We’re not there yet,but we’re on our way.”

That attitude earned Hitz-field the KASA recognition, ac-cording to Conner AssistantPrincipal Jason Shearer. In hisnomination of Hitzfield, Shear-er wrote: “Leaders inspire peo-ple to do their best work, andthat is definitely trueaboutTimHitzfield. His biggest contribu-tion is his ability to change theculture of Conner HighSchool.”

Parent and Conner HighSchool Site-Based DecisionMaking Council member PamMatola said she’s seen first-hand Hitzfield’s ability to leadand make positive changes.

“In the last six years, I’veseen our budgets decrease and

our resources lessen all thewhile our test scores have risenand our student/teaching envi-ronment strengthened,” Mato-la said. “I attribute that, in largepart, to Mr. Hitzfield. He con-tinually finds ways to ‘do morewith less’ andstrongly supportsprograms, learning techniques,community resources, and newtechnologies to promote thevery best environment for allof our students.”

Hitzfield said thecredit goesto his teachers, staff, and stu-dents and their parents.

“We’ve got a group thatworks together to achieve acommon goal,” he said. “We’vedeveloped a culture and organi-zational structure that allowsthat. This (recognition) bringsthe spotlight on all the workwe’re doing in Boone CountySchools.

“It’s a great place to be.Some days it’s a challenge.Some days it’s a celebration.Everyday is different. You tru-ly feel like you’re making a dif-ference in people’s lives.”

KASA is the largest publicschool administrators group inKentucky, representing morethan 3,000 education leadersfrom across the common-wealth. Formed in 1969, it con-nects education leaders to poli-cymakers, legislators, and oth-er interest groups. The associa-tion also represents theprofession on the national levelthrough the American Associa-tion of School Administrators.

FIRST SWING AT 2013 GOLF

Raiders ready tobuild on golf successBy James [email protected]

The goals are simple for thecross country programs at St.Henry District High School:Win championships.

The Crusaders racked upthe normal allotment of tro-phies during the 2012 cam-paign. The boys team won its11th state title in a row. Thegirls team swept the confer-ence, regional and state cham-pionships. In the1A statemeet,the Crusaders collected theireighth title in the past 10 sea-sons.

St. Henry coaches expectedthe task to be mightier thisyear, as they believed theschool would be reclassifiedupwards to 2A for the fall sea-son because of increasing en-rollment in the Erlangerschool. They were surprised tobe left in 1A in the new align-ment announced by theKHSAA in late July.

“I was very surprised be-cause I heard so much it was adone deal,” said St. Henry boyscoach Ernie Brooks. “I hadkind of resigned myself to thefactwe hadmore students, andthat’s it, we’re moving up.”

Ernie Brooks lost veteranstandoutDanielWolfer tograd-uation after he finished eighthin the state meet. Wolfer wasthe only senior in the startingseven. Josh Hannon was ninth,Michael Ridilla 23rd, AndrewSmith 27th, Robert Brockman42nd, Scott Wilson 66th andJake Plummer 71st.

Harden’s returning startersinclude Sam Hentz, TaylorConnett, Holly Blades, Eliza-beth Hoffman, Abby Epplen,and Libby Anneken. Hentz isthe defending regional cham-pion and finished 11th at state,while Connett placed seventhin the state meet to be an indi-vidual medalist. Blades was16th, Anneken 20th, Hoffman26th and Epplen 38th.

Top new contributors areRenee Svec, Shelbi Ryan, Tay-lor Matsko and Molly Brown-field. Svec was injuredmost oflast season.

Harden has six seniors inthe program, Connett leading

the way with Lauren Cahill,Shelby Hentz, Trisha Marks,Darcie Meiman and OliviaScheper.

St. Henry starts in the RyleInvitational Aug. 31 then goesto the Grant Countymeet Sept.7.

In other schools, the Rylegirls team was second in lastyear’s local 3A regional, andJensen Bales is 2012 regionalchampion. Cooper won its firstregional championship in 3Aboys, andBradyBaker returnsas a two-time defending indi-vidual champ.

The Recorder will havemoreon local teams in thecom-ing weeks.

FIRST RUN AT 2013 CROSS COUNTRY

Crusaders get 2ndchance in 1A runningBy James [email protected]

KHSAA news» The Kentucky High

School Athletic AssociationBoard of Control conducted ameeting July 22 at the Bank ofKentucky Center, NorthernKentucky University. Amongthe various topics addressedwas the finalizing of a newalignment for Track and Field/Cross Country for the upcom-ing 2013-14 season.

In the new alignment, theonly two Northern Kentuckyschools to change classes wereLloyd, who dropped to Class1A, and Scott, who dropped to2A from 3A.

Followingmonthsof review,a survey of the memberschools, and consideration ofall of the suggested amend-ments, the Board of Controladopted a revised alignmentfor Track & Field/Cross Coun-try to take effect for postsea-son competition in the fall of2013. Originally, a draft align-mentwasdevelopedthatwould

have minimized differences inenrollment between the larg-est and smallest schools inClass 1A and Class 3A. Howev-er, the feedbackfromthemem-bership was more favorable tothe current system of dividingthe schools, as the draft wouldhave resulted in extremelylarge regions in Class 2A or ad-ditional regions.

Following consideration,the board left the dividing linebetween Class1A and 2A at 610students (as with the old align-ment), and raised the lineslightly between Class 2A and3A to 1,050 (from the current1,025). After those dividinglines were established, theschools that required newplacementswere adjusted, andahandful of geographic adjust-ments were made to help withtravelsituationsand in thecaseof 3A, to relieve overcrowdingin Region 7.

Track and Field has thehighest participation numbersof any individual sport sanc-tioned by the KHSAA withnearly 12,000 competitors, andis the third highest in all sports

in terms of participation be-hind football and basketball.Cross Country has the secondhighest participation numbersamong the individual sportswith nearly 5,800 participantsduring 2012-2013.

» The Board of Control ap-proved a measure to move theKHSAA Track & Field StateMeet to Memorial Day week-end for 2014 and 2015. For theupcoming 2013-14 year, themove allows the KHSAA toavoid shortening the competi-tive season one week to stay incompliance with the corre-sponding dates calendar, whilealso avoiding a scheduling con-flict with a majority of its offi-cials between KHSAA region-als and the SEC Outdoor Meet(May 8-10). The 2014 KHSAAstate meet will be May 23-24,with the 2A meet taking placeon Friday, and the 1A and 3Achampionships on Saturday.The board authorized the com-missioner to finalize the statemeet site for 2014 and 2015 inthe coming weeks.

A8 • FLORENCE RECORDER • AUGUST 1, 2013

Ignoring foot and hoof,Boone County was initiallyserved best by the Ohio Riveras a transportation route. Fromthe earliest times, the riverprovided themost expeditiousway into Boone County fromthe east. It also provided anavenue of commerce, or atleast, a vehicle for selling ex-cess production.

NewOrleans in the earlypart of the19th centurywas amuchmore lucrativemarketthan anything closer. Steamersmade that commerce easier,but there were othermarketsin the south where rivers didnot flow.

The Louisville &NashvilleRailroad penetrated the statebefore either of the two laterrailroads touched Boone Coun-ty. In fact, JohnUri Lloyd’sfather was surveying for arailroad between Cincinnatiand Louisville when the compa-nywent bust and stranded thefamily here.

After the Civil War, the cityof Cincinnati sponsored a rail-road into the south tomatch

Louisville’sadvantage inhaving a south-erly rail con-nection. Thatline, the Cin-cinnati, NewOrleans andTexas Pacific(CNO&TP)chuffed up outof Cincinnati’swest end toErlanger andthence southparallel toRoutes 25 and,later, I-75along the “dryridge” buffalotrace.

The otherline was theLouisville,

Cincinnati and Lexington(LC&L, later L&N, and nowCSX) out of Cincinnati’s eastend, across the L&N (PurplePeople Bridge), through Lato-nia and up “IndependenceHill”toWalton and thence to Louis-ville. Folks knew this as the

short line.The CNO&TPwas known as

the Southern (nowNorfolkSouthern). Boone’s easternboundary is prettymuch de-fined by the Southern RR. TheCSX crosses under the South-ern atWalton and, alongwithI-71, approximates Boone’sSouthern boundary.

The Ohio River formsBoone’s north andwest bound-ary and, taken together withthe railroads, Boone had goodtransportation on the edges butonly U.S. Route 42 runningthrough it. When packet boattraffic stopped due to railroadcompetition, river towns suchas Touseytown andHamilton“dried up.”

When passenger trains quitdue to good roads being built(auto and bus competition),towns along the railroads hav-ing stations – Kensington andRichwood, for example – with-ered on the vine.

Waltonians haveworked inthe Greater Cincinnati areastarting with passenger ser-vice on the railroads, extended

to Greyhound buses in theauthor’s youth and now by auto.

Salt licks, forage andwaterdecidedwhere the buffalowent, where buffalo or bisontrails crossed locatedmanytowns and cities. Civil engi-neers found it to be quite ad-vantageous to follow the bisontrails to connect cities withroads and railroads.While theearly routes followed those ofthe bison, over the past 200years, the insistent wail of therailroadwhistle drove theechoing drone of the steamboatwhistle from the river. Theroar of exhaust and singingtires of the automobile havesince overtaken passengertrains.

Proud of thecheerleaders

On July 20 the CooperHigh School cheerleadingteam participated in TrashFor Cash. We were as-signed Longbranch Road.Overall we picked up eightbags of trash. We had 14cheerleaders and parentsparticipate in the cleanup.It took us about 11/2 hoursto complete the five mileswe were assigned.

We were excited that wegot to clean the area thatruns directly in front of ourschool. Overall we foundthat a majority of the areawas clean. Occasionallythere was restaurant gar-bage. The largest percent-age of our bags was filledwith huge drops of gar-bage. We felt like it wasn’tthat many of the peoplegoing by Cooper polluted,but rather a select few lazypeople. We found two hugepiles where it was obviousthat people just dumpedtheir trash rather than putit out for the garbage man.

The girls were not upsetabout doing Trash for Cashbecause they knew thatcleaning up their communi-ty was a positive act. Theywere more shocked thatthis area wasn’t thattrashed. This area is welltraveled and it is obviousthat a majority people whodrive this road care aboutthe environment. We areagain very proud of thehard work of the CooperCheerleading Program.

Giving back to thecommunity

On July 20 the UnionJaguar cheerleading pro-gram participated in TrashFor Cash. We were as-signed Longbranch Ele-mentary, Cooper HighSchool campuses and Cen-tral Park. Overall wepicked up seven bags oftrash. We had 15 cheerlead-ers and parents participatein the cleanup. It took usabout two hours to com-plete the five miles wewere assigned.

We were happy that wegot to clean the schools thatwe represent as well as alocal park that we all playin. We got a good look athow well maintained all ofthe areas were. We feel likethe people who frequentthese areas take care of theenvironment. The janitorsand maintenance crewswho work these areasshould be proud of thework that you do.

The girls had a goodtime. They liked playingwith the clickers and pick-ing up trash with them. Agroup in Central Parkfound a large magnet signthat is used by the BCPWDto put on their trucks forregular cleanups in thepark. They felt like adultswhen they posed with thesign showing that theywere the cleanup crew.This was a very pleasantexperience and we are gladthat we were able to giveback to the community.

LETTERS TOTHE EDITOR

People should stop smoking.I’ve been hearing it since the1960s when I cajoled my fatherinto quitting. I was 6 years old– at which time he probablyrealized I was just enough of apain in the backside to some-day become a lawyer.

But how do we get others toquit? Government probablycan’t stop all the nicotine ad-dictions out there. Can we atleast agree that governmentshould not promote smoking oroffer special financial benefitsto smokers?

Here’s how our governmentpromotes smoking. Kentuckyand many other states have“civil rights” laws which re-quire employers to hire smok-ers, whether they want to ornot. Is a smoker like a modernday Rosa Parks? Don’t get hotaround the collar about mecomparingMs. Parks, a truecivil rights hero, with smokers.I didn’t write these smokinglaws. I think the smoking lawswrongfully restrict the libertyinterests of business ownersand encourage smoking.

Here’s how we offer govern-ment financial incentives tosmokers. Government rulesessentially require non-smok-ers to pay for a portion ofsmoker health care costs,whether throughMedicare,

Medicaid, orinsurance costsharing, atleast to somedegree.

By requir-ing us to fi-nancially sub-sidize smok-ing, the gov-ernment hasrestricted theliberty in-

terests of non-smokers. I heara lot of noisy objections to“secondhand” smoke. I callsmoker health subsidies “sec-ondhand” health care costs. Ifwe don’t like smoking, why arewe paying smokers to smoke?

Making smoking criminal ina few places adds more gov-ernment rules. What if wefocused on more liberty andfreedom, not less? A govern-ment which shields citizensfrom the consequences of badbehavior shouldn’t be sur-prised when the behavior con-tinues. If we are, as some say,living in a “nanny state,” ournanny is being spread way toothin. I heard she was handingout cigarettes the other day.How about some free market-type solutions?

1. Remove governmentruleswhich prohibit employ-ers from preferring non-smok-

ers over smokers. This wouldtake care of a big part of Ken-tucky’s problem. A catchyname for the bill would help.We could call it “Smokers AreNot Rosa Parks.”

2. Take all governmentrules limiting premium costsfor smokers off the books.Allow employers and insurersto charge whatever healthinsurance rates they wish tocharge for smokers. The Af-fordable Care Act does some ofthis, but we could go further.We could call it “Smoke ‘Em IfYou Can Afford ‘Em.”

3. If you’re smoking ridicu-lously high-priced cigarettes,don’t expect us to be legallyrequired to pay for your ill-nesses throughMedicaid. Re-move government require-ments that we pay – rely oncharities. We could call it “YouChoose – Tobacco or FreeHealthcare.”

4. We’ve got chain smokerswith plenty of money and lawswhich essentially require non-smokers to pay for their care.Medicare expenditures al-ready far exceed an individ-ual’s contributions to the sys-tem. Ease our government-mandated expenditures forsmokers. This is a tough one,but they really need to quit. Wecould call it “Grandma, Don’t

Blow Your Second HandHealthcare Costs In My Face,”or “Grandpa, Don’t Cause OurMedicare Dollars To Go Up InSmoke.”

5. Enhance private initia-tives on smoking cessation.Businesses across the com-monwealth would be willing tocontribute. The nonprofitcould be called “Take OurHelping Hand Now, So YouWon’t Lose Your Free or Re-duced Cost Benefits Later.”

However improbable, eachof these ideas would take lawsoff the books which encouragesmoking. Our governmentwould no longer be forcingnon-smokers to involuntarilypay for smokers. Imagine theincreased quality of life forour former smokers.

As usual, we should begin inthe right place. By restoringour country’s building blocksof liberty and personal respon-sibility, we just might trulycurb secondhand health carecosts.

Health coaching is as muchabout empowerment as it isabout living well, according toSt. Elizabeth’s Target Healthwellness specialist Sara Faller.

“We try to dispel the mis-conceptions out there (abouthealth coaching),” Faller said.“People ask: ‘Are you going totell me to exercise?’ I say: ‘No.’We’re here to support andguide people, and to providethe educational tools and re-sources they need to makegood decisions on their own.”

Independent health coachLinda Baier, of Burlington, saidshe too aims to get her clients“to take control of their ownhealth.”

“(Health coaching) empow-ers people to be in charge oftheir own lives, their own des-tiny, their own health,” shesaid.

Choose to changeThe first step toward living

well, according to Faller, ischoosing to make a lifestylechange.

“We see success with peoplewho are ready to change,” shesaid. “I can’t bring you to thatpoint, it’s up to you.”

Once that point is reached,Faller said many don’t knowwhere to go next. That’s wherehealth coaching comes intoplay.

“We can help along the way(offering) knowledge and sup-port,” she said. “As a healthcoach, I don’t tell you what todo. I ask: ‘What do you want todo?’ Health coaching, for us, isdriven by the participant’sgoals.”

Faller and fellow staff mem-bers of St. Elizabeth’s TargetHealth program offer healthcoaching, wellness servicesand disease management in-ternally to hospital associatesand externally to corporateclients.

Faller, who resides in FortThomas, has worked within theprogram a little over twoyears. She studied exercisescience at Ashland Universityand earned her master’s inhealth promotion and educa-tion at the University of Cin-cinnati.

She can’t imagine havingany other career.

“You get to see people grow,change andmature, at allages,” she said. “It’s incredibly

motivating and rewarding. Youfeel like you’re making a dif-ference in people’s lives.”

According to Faller, exercis-ing and eating right greatlyaffects quality of life. TheTarget Health program staffwork with associates and cli-ents on shaping their goals andmapping out a plan of accom-plishment. The staff serves asa source of support and encour-agement, she said.

“A lot of times our job isabout just being there andsupporting people and lettingthem know they have someonethey can turn to and talk to,”Faller said. “Also, if you knowI’m going to be sending you anemail or following up with youon your goals, like exercisingfor 10 minutes a day, you’remore likely to do what you’veset out to do.”

Crave overall well-beingHealth and wellness coach

Linda Baier focuses her coach-ing efforts on nutrition, healthand healing.

“I help people understandhow their body relates to foodand how they can be their own

nutritionist andchef,” she said.“I teach peoplehow to eat foodwith a purpose,to heal and ener-gize their bod-ies.”

Baier hasoperated herown business,

Isaiah’s Way Nutrition, locatedon Houston Road in Florence,since 2012. Her personal choiceto live well was made in 2006after her husband died frommultiple complications fromobesity.

Baier hired a health coachwho helped her eliminate un-healthy foods and introducehealthy choices. Needingmoresupport for her health issuesand exhausting conventionalforms of treatment, Baier saida friend introduced her to anaturopath who specialized inNutritional Response Testing

and healing with whole foodand whole food supplements.

“Finally,” said Baier, “I feltbetter for the first time inyears. I started getting re-sults.”

Within a year and a half, shewas off all prescription drugs,including pain medications,allergy shots and synthetichormones.

A friend who noticed achange in Baier’s life asked herfor help.

“As I was helping her, Ithought: ‘I might be able to dothis full time,’” she said.

A Christian, Baier said shesought direction fromGod.

“I kept coming to a verse inthe book of Isaiah,” she said.The Scripture, Isaiah 55:2:“Why spend your money onfood that does not give youstrength?Why pay for foodthat does no good? Listen tome, and you will eat what isgood. You will enjoy the finestfood!”

“I felt (nutritional healthcoaching) was the path Godwas leadingme to,” Baier said.

She received training fromthe Institute for IntegrativeNutrition and has been on herway helping others ever since.

“It’s rewarding. Each one ofmy clients inspires me andchallenges me,” she said. “See-ing the change we’re making intheir lives has been inspiringfor my own healing andhealth.”

According to Baier, food haseverything to do with how onefeels. Her goal is to help clientsidentify ways to eat healthierand to rely less on “secondaryfoods” that we eat, she said.

Instead of finding fulfill-ment in these secondary foods,one needs to discover fulfill-ment through “primary foods,”like healthy relationships,regular physical activity, afulfilling career and spirituallife, Baier said.

Through talking, listeningand teaching, Baier helps oth-ers recognize the differencebetween these primary andsecondary sources of energy.She helps set a plan for eachindividual and guides them tohealthier eating – healthierliving.

“It’s simply amazing, peopleleave here different – feelingbetter,” she said. “They feelmore empowered.”


Empoerment is what health coaching is all about, according to St.Elizabeth’s Target Health wellness specialist Sara Faller. A member ofthe Target Health staff, Faller oversees and offers health coaching,wellness services, disease management internally to hospital associatesand externally to corporate clients.

Oaks

I couldn’t resist buyingan extra pound of darkcherries from the gro-cery. Not to eat out ofhand or put into fruitsalads, but to make cher-ry bounce. It’s an oldfashioned liqueur withtrue heirloom status.

I believe the Shakersused to make somethinglike cherry bounce andused it as a medicinal forsore throats, etc. Therecipe is a hand-writtenone frommy friend AnnRudloff, a Kentuckyreader. Her mom,Mary,made it every year. Marysaid it would cure justabout anything. She’s inheaven now and is prob-ably still brewing upbatches! I’ve knownfriends to use it as anafter dinner cordial andto spoon the cherriesfrom the bottom of thebottle onto ice cream orcake.

Classic cherrybounce

Mary used to use sug-ar string candy, severalpieces, for the sugar. Ican’t always find that so I

use regular sugar.

1pound darkcherries stemmedbut not pitted.

2 cups sugar1 bottle bourbonwhiskey

Put cherries inglass jar. Poursugar and whis-key over. Put lidon. Shake each day untilsugar dissolves. Here’sthe kicker, though. Waitabout 4-6 months beforedrinking. I keepmine inmy pie safe. Great as aholiday gift. Be sure andput on the label that thecherries have pits.

Tip from Rita’skitchen

I’m substituting rawhoney for the sugar inone of my batches. I’ll letyou know how it turnsout.

Summermuffalettawith olive dressing

Filling:1⁄2 pound each: Havartior provolonecheese and ham

1⁄4 pound salamiTomato slicesRed onion ringsLeaf lettuce

Dressing:Go to taste on this. If

you don’t like black ol-ives, use green olives.Youmay wind up withdressing left over. Itmakes a nice spread forwraps.1⁄2 cup finely chopped blackolives

2⁄3 cup olive oil1⁄3 cup red wine vinegarMinced onion to taste (startwith 1 tablespoon)

Palmful fresh basil, chopped1 teaspoonminced garlic1 tablespoon fresh oregano,minced or 1 teaspoondried

Pepper to taste

Whisk together dress-ing ingredients. Set aside.

Hollow out bottomloaf, leaving 1⁄2 thicksides. Hollow out top loaf,but leave sides a bitthicker. Spread dressingon inside of top and bot-tom loaves. Set top aside.Start layering meats,cheese, vegetables andlettuce, brushing eachlayer with dressing, untilyou run out of filling.Press each layer down asyou go. Press top ontosandwich and wrap andchill for at least 1 hour orup to 8 hours. Cut into bigwedges to serve.

Can you help?Perpetual bread

“starter.” For Nanci P.who said she was watch-ing Paula Deen’s showand a person broughtwith her a starter that shehad had for 42 years.“She added a bit to hercinnamon yeast rolls, butshe said you can add toany bread, muffin, etc.Howwould I create myown starter and are theydifficult to feed, keeptemperature proper, and

any other criteria?”Nanci told me this is

not a sourdough starter,and I’m thinking it’ssomething like my friend-ship bread starter, whichcan be kept for eons aslong as it’s kept fed. Itcan also be frozen. Doesanybody have a startersimilar to what Nanciwants?
