A tear has been added to this photo of Lisa Esser's painting to express our sorrow over the loss of innocent life in Newtown, Connecticut.
Lisa Esser is a self-taught artist. She said that she grew up painting oils on barn-siding and her mom encouraged her to paint their garbage cans so they could have the prettiest cans on the side of the road. "My mother encouraged me to paint whatever I could get my hands on, and I have dabbled in it all."
"Whatever emotion I am feeling is seen on my canvas. I paint from my heart. Some might say I am an emotional artist. I believe art brings healing and have become fearless to express myself."
Esser has a studio at the Loveland Artists Studios on Main at 529 Main Street in Loveland. She can be contacted by e-mail.
Loveland, Ohio - Adults who live near the crosswalk on Lebanon Road at the intersection of Acaro and Preakness Lane have been lobbying City Hall for years to improve pedestrian safety. Many have school children and are worried about a dangerous situation. They have been frustrated by inaction to their concerns. City administrators have looked at the problem, but respond that changes are deemed too expensive or will make matters worse. However, Loveland Middle School students, Autumn Binford and Molly Shilling have a new idea, they want to, “create a culture of pedestrian safety” not just at this intersection, but throughout the entire city.
The girls appeared at the November 20 council meeting to present their Girl Scout Silver Award Project - "To help Loveland by educating pedestrians and motorists about crosswalk safety."
Autumn she said she was recently nearly run over by a car that didn’t stop as she crossed Lebanon Road at the crosswalk. A school bus stopped for her, but a car darted into the intersection trapping her when other cars also ignored the crosswalk signs.
Autumn wants the public to learn what the law is, and once they do, she asks that the Loveland Police Department issue warnings to drivers violating the Loveland crosswalk law. She told council that only 11 citations have been issued for violations in the past ten years. “There were five violations in my crossing example,” she said.
Autumn cited the law, “It shall be the duty of the operator of any vehicle to yield the right of way to a pedestrian lawfully crossing the roadway within any crosswalk.” She continued, “The motorists simply don’t follow it.”
Bellevue Kentucky, which is helping Autumn with her program, has two people assigned to coordinate their pedestrian safety program. “I’d like someone with the City of Loveland to work with us on the pedestrian safety program,” she asked.
She would like banners displayed on utility poles in Loveland like the ones they have in Bellevue, and Autumn and Molly will conduct a student poster making contest.
“No one has been hurt yet in our Loveland crosswalks, but if we don’t do something soon, someone may.”

The theme of this year’s holiday show choir concert at Loveland High School is “Holiday Homecoming”. As always it is open to the general public, but this year the plan is to highlight alumni in the area. While they hope to fill the audience with familiar faces, there is also an opportunity for alumni to perform as part of the celebration. If you are interested in performing, contact Shawn Miller by email --millersh@lovelandschools.org.
There is only one concert on Saturday December 8 at 7 PM in the high school auditorium. Besides a concert of holiday favorites, there will be time to mingle, reminisce and buy baked goods.

Did you
know that wounded warriors who retire medically as a result of injuries
sustained in combat lose coverage of vital autism treatment services
their children need?
Can you imagine your family making the
sacrifices necessary to deploy to combat and then finding out that only a
small fraction of the autism treatments needed for your child are
covered? Is this how we want to treat our nation’s heroes? Your help is
needed!
Critical legislation improving coverage of autism treatments for military children is going to the Senate floor this week.
We need the entire autism community to rally in support of our military families. Please take action today!
Here is How YOU Can Help:
1. CALL YOUR US SENATORS TODAY
Call Sen. Sherrod Brown Phone: (202) 224-2315 And call Sen. Robert Portman Phone: (202) 224-3353
In a polite voice, say: "I am a constituent of Senator [name]
and I am calling to ask that he/she vote in support of Senator
Gillibrand's amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act
addressing the treatment needs for military children with autism.
Providing our military families with the health care they have earned
and deserve is simply the right thing to do. Thank you."
2) EMAIL YOUR SENATORS You can email them here. If you are a military family, personalize your letter by referencing your child or how this issue directly impacts you.
3) ASK YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO HELP Share this link below on your Facebook and/or Twitter account and ask them to send in a letter on your behalf.
"The
Senate is about to vote on legislation that would help our military
families raising kids with autism. The House has already passed this
measure and we all need is the Senate! But time is running short in the
lame duck Congress. Could you go on the link below and send your
Senators a quick email to ask them to support the Gillibrand amendment?
Then write DONE below so I can thank you."
A small group of Little Miami teachers have been taking three new math instruction programs for a "test drive" this year in an effort to find the best one to serve the district’s elementary students.
Teachers in selected classes in grades K-4 at Harlan-Butlerville, Hamilton-Maineville and Salem Twp. have been working with their students using either Go Math, enVisionMATH or Investigations, three different sets of curricula for instructing students in the fundamentals of mathematics.
When the test drive is complete, the district will select one of the programs to adopt and use for all elementary students.
Little Miami math instruction has always met state standards, Curriculum Director Regina Morgan said, but in the last few years, many teachers have been shuffled to different grade levels and subjects, making a seamless K-4 math program difficult to maintain.
With the new, more rigorous Common Core State Standards that students will be required to meet in 2014 – and the fact that Little Miami recently saw its state report card downgraded from “Excellent” to “Effective” -- Morgan said it was time to renew the district’s focus on math instruction.
Multiple Reports of Near Head-on and Near Rear End Collisions
Left turns from westbound SR 28 to southbound I-275
are now prohibited. The contractor has completed enough work to allow
the new on ramp from westbound SR28 to be opened and used by the
motoring public. The ramp has been open since Friday morning November 16th. All traffic going to southbound I-275 must use the new ramp on the right hand side of the roadway.
The
Miami Township Police Department has received multiple reports of near
head-on and near rear end collisions due to drivers continuing to make a
left turn to the freeway. Signs have been posted to alert drivers of
the turn prohibition. Miami Township Police Officers have been at the
location several times and have been stopping motorists who are making
this illegal turn. To date they have only issued written warnings.
Officers are observing as many as 60 violations per hour during the
slower part of the day and much higher numbers during rush hours.
“The
situation is becoming very dangerous, and the motoring public is either
not getting the message or is just refusing to obey,” said Miami
Township Police Chief R. Steven Bailey. “I am very concerned that there
will be a tragic crash at this intersection due to the behavior of these
drivers. Very soon we are going to start issuing citations to drivers
who violate the turn prohibition. Violations of this type can cost the
driver a total of $90 in fines and court costs.”
Drivers
are urged to be attentive and to comply with the new traffic pattern
for this intersection. "The new traffic pattern is safer and more
efficient for everyone," said Baily. "The new
on-ramp was built after decades of complaints about the traffic back-up
and rear-end crashes involving drivers waiting to make a left turn"
The congregation of the Loveland Predestinarian Baptist Church in 1926. Historian Larry Hamilton has identified everyone in this photo.
by Larry Hamilton
A disappointing message about the declining prospects for saving the Loveland Predestinarian Baptist Church made me pause in reflection upon my personal remembrances and the family legacy associated with that church.
I had attended the Loveland Predestinarian Baptist Church as a child, as my father, Lawrence Sr., had before me and his mother, grandma
Esther, had been my Sunday School teacher. Her mother Cynthia had also briefly taught after attending Berea College but soon afterwards married John W. Hannon who would pastor the Loveland church for nearly fifty years. Cynthia's, mother was Lucy Sams Ross who was born a slave in Kentucky and had weathered many storms of life in the form of personal losses, social indignities and political denials but her faith was her refuge and shortly after migrating to Ohio she became a founding member of the Loveland Predestinarian Baptist Church in 1892. (Read: Historic Review of Chestnut Street Church)
After meditating for some time my attention turned suddenly to contemplating the task at hand and I wrote to David Miller, Publisher of Loveland Magazine, and those that had formed a committee to save the church the following:
Thank you for the update. There is little to be optimistic about in this account, or what am I missing? However, I am not without a measure of faith. I still believe that I/we can make a difference. I've never been an inspirational speaker but that has seldom stopped me from sharing and/or fighting the good fight. The Vernon Johns Story, a movie about the struggle for civil rights contained the command "Son, if you see a good fight, get in it!" As a father and a teacher I further encouraged my children and students with the following:
A Mission Statement
I am only one, but I am one, I can't do everything, but I can do something, What I can do, I ought to do, And what I ought to do, By the grace of GOD I will do.
Author unknown
In the release of my Book III of Lucy's Story the cover will depict two women-one white and one black (Helen Medert and Mary Sidney Wells) fighting back as 'prayer warriors' during the 1913 Loveland Flood.
There are of course a number of themes in sharing this family history narrative but chief among them are 'keeping the faith' and doing the RIGHT thing. I am committed to doing both and my role in part will be to fight the good fight in challenging the City of Loveland to do the RIGHT thing and challenging the family and Black community to be more than talkers of faith but to become walkers in the conviction of their faith.
My slave ancestor who helped build the Loveland Predestinarian Baptist Church exercised her faith and fought the good fight in realizing "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13) but her descendants, not so much. Because of personal family matters I had already decided to use the following as a FOREWORD to Book III...
Thank all of you for doing what you have done and those of you so inclined to continue doing what you will do ...by the grace of GOD.
Sincerely,
Larry Hamilton

Introduction to Book III of Lucy's Story
Family Gatherings: So, Who do you think you are?
August has become the month that is chosen for many Family Reunions, especially since the efforts of Dorothy Height to formalize nationally the Black Family Reunion Celebration.
In conjunction with this Height - NCNW initiative, Cincinnati has become a destination site for many Black family groups, and this year the August 17th and 18th event at Sawyer Point has chosen the theme “Bringing Families Together”. This activity will draw tens of thousands of people or family groups that share a blood line but unfortunately have little else in common. Many more small family gatherings and reunions will be taking place but again a commonality of purpose particularly associated with the Sankofa experience is clearly to be questioned.
This website: http://goblackcentral.com/ chose as its symbol the Sankofa- a bird looking back or behind to represent ‘us’ as a people and signify the importance of looking back to understand our history so we can move forward. It is vital for people to know their heritage, history and culture….a person who knows their history is like a tree with strong roots. To the contrary, an individual who does not respect their history or their ancestors is like a tree without roots. We must deepen our roots, so that we may grow stronger…SANKOFA!
Within my own family group(s) the reality is that there is a growing chorus of discontent expressed by some who question the worth of bringing the family together, challenge why it is important to promote heritage, history and culture when all that stuff is boring and besides our people never did anything important anyhow. Even the usual questions of cost associated with family dues and hotel reunion expenses are giving way to more sinister and personalized allegations of pimping grandma’s legacy.
We all know family members who have a knack for saying the wrong thing at just the right time to provoke ‘family dramas’ but fortunately most of us know that while we can’t chose are relatives or make them culturally sensitive to want to do the RIGHT thing, we can nevertheless, chose to put into place that which grandma urged and practiced, and that was to love us all unconditionally. So, family is family and perhaps it’s better left to the spirit of the elders to judge the relevance and import of the extension of dignity, honor and respect given unto them. http://omaviasalipublishing.com/right-choices/
YOUR ANCESTORS
If you could see your ancestors all standing in a row. Would you be proud of them? Or don't you really know. Strange discoveries are often made, climbing the family tree. Sometimes one is found in line who shocks the progeny. If you could see your ancestors all standing in a row. Perhaps there might be one or two you wouldn’t care to know. Now turn the question right about and take another view. When you shall meet your ancestors, will they be proud of you? (Author unknown)
Watch: The Family Memorial Day Observance
Introductory remarks by Larry Hamilton for a family Memorial Day celebration and Flagpole Monument Dedication at Piqua, OH in 2007.
Loveland, Ohio - The Loveland City School District
Board of Education has approved the name of the district’s new fitness center:
The Robert and Pauline Williams Fitness Center. The Loveland Athletic Boosters
spearheaded this project, raising nearly $600,000 to have the facility constructed.
The Athletic Boosters requested the Board approve of the name to honor Robert
and Pauline Williams, who are long-time supporters of Loveland athletics.
“This couple has played a vital role in the community,” said
Loveland Athletic Boosters President Jeff Williams (no relation to the couple).
“Robert and Pauline have always had a special place in their hearts for
Loveland athletics, and we feel it is appropriate to honor their dedication to
the students in this manner.”
“We are pleased to honor this couple,” said Dr. John Marschhausen,
Loveland superintendent. “We are so fortunate to experience this level of
support from our community; the ultimate benefactors of this donation are our
students who will have the opportunity to grow and develop in a
state-of-the-art facility.”
A plaque with the name will be included as part of the project. The
Robert and Pauline Williams Fitness Center remains under construction; the
floor needs several months to cure before the flooring can be installed. The
district plans to begin moving equipment in mid-January.
A dedication date will be scheduled and announced once equipment
installation is complete.
Loveland, Ohio - Three Loveland high school seniors have received their nomination by Congresswomen Jean Schmidt for application to U.S. Military Academies.
Tanner Hawk (U.S. Naval Academy Nomination), Bryce Plitt (Military Academy Nomination) and David Trate (Military Academy Nomination). All three are excel academically and athletically for the Loveland Tigers. Tanner plays football and lacrosse, Bryce plays football, basketball and baseball. David ran cross country, swims and is on the academic team. Additionally, all three are on the High Honor Roll.
A reception took place Tuesday November 20 at Schmidt’s office in Kenwood. In all, she presented 29 nominations among the U.S. Air Force, Merchant Marine, Military Academy and U.S. Naval Academy.
At least one nominee could be accepted by each institution.
All members of Congress may nominate up to 10 candidates per opening. There’s no guarantee that more than one nominee will be accepted by each academy. Academies usually make appointments by March 31.
“The academies look for individuals who are well-rounded academically, physically, and socially,” Schmidt said. “The ideal candidate will have demonstrated leadership qualities, community service, athleticism, scholarship, and a strong desire to serve in the military as an officer. Those selected commit to serving in the military for at least five years after graduation.”
Those who later applied were interviewed last month at Schmidt’s Cincinnati office by two Air Force Academy graduates, a West Point graduate, and a Navy lieutenant commander. The congresswoman’s nominations were based on the panel’s recommendations.
Santa Claus and his helpers will begin their annual trek through
Symmes Township neighborhoods on Wednesday, December 5th from 5:00 -
8:30 p.m. As tradition dictates, they will arrive via a shiny, red fire
truck and pass out treats to children.
In the spirit of the giving season, they hope that residents will help them fill Santa's bag back up with donations to the Marine Toys for Tots program.
This worthy campaign collects new, unwrapped toys or cash gifts for
less fortunate children. Anyone interested in making a toy or cash
donation may give it to Santa or one of his helpers as they travel
through the Township or they can drop it off at the Township office by
December 6th. Checks should be made payable to the "Marine Toys for
Tots Foundation."
