Carmel High School Band Submitted photo
Marching band wins national title By Bryan Gilmer • editorial@youarecurrent.com Carmel High School has won the national title at the Bands of America Grand Nationals Championship at Lucas Oil Stadium, marking the school’s second such honor and its first since 2005. As a result, the Greyhounds will be invited to march in the 2014 Rose Bowl Parade in Pasadena, Calif.. The theme for the Band this year was What a Tangled Web We Weave, which featured the band using several spider- and web-like images. Earlier this month the marching band won the Indiana State Music Association’s state championship, as well as previously the Music Caption Award. The state championship came after a dry spell of 10 years for the Marching Greyhounds. Last year, the Greyhounds marched in the Macy’s Day Parade on Thanksgiving. Jessie Meltzer, a junior at Carmel, was able to participate in the Macy’s Day Parade and will be a senior when the Greyhounds march in the Rose Bowl Parade. When asked, Meltzer said that she, “did not expect to win state or [nationals] this year. I felt
extremely accomplished when we won. I finally felt like all of the band’s hard work had paid off.” This year’s seniors unfortunately will not be able to participate in the Rose Bowl Parade because they will graduate. Sara Spence, a senior at Carmel who has been in the band all four years, commented on the team’s success and the fact that she will miss the Rose Bowl Parade, saying, “I am excited for the underclassmen to get to go to the Rose Bowl [Parade] because knowing that I was a senior when we were able to win state and nationals is probably the biggest honor I could have ever achieved throughout my four years of band.” Nevertheless, the team will still work hard to succeed just as they did this year. “I think next year we will have a difficult act to follow. Many extremely talented seniors will be graduating. However, I know the directors will push us and we will still be one of the top bands,” said Meltzer.
City of Carmel honors veterans – The City of Carmel honored veterans at the annual Veterans Day Ceremony on Nov. 9 at The Tarkington Theater at The Center for The Performing Arts. Mayor Jim Brainard was joined by keynote speaker Brigadier General James L. Bauerle, the Carmel Elementary School Choir and the Actors Theater of Indiana “Andrews Sisters.” Students from local elementary schools took part in a poster contest, while middle school and high school students were asked to participate in an essay contest. This year’s theme was “Freedom Isn’t Free.” (Submitted photo)

Community Health Network announced on Nov. 15 that Community Hospital North and Community Hospital East will become affiliates of MD Anderson Cancer Network, a program of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. This collaboration will provide certified physicians at these two Community hospitals with access to evidence-based guidelines, treatment plans and concordance studies developed by MD Anderson experts. These are diseasespecific guidelines for cancer treatment, cancer prevention, early detection and follow-up care, bringing new hope to local cancer patients by using treatment guidelines developed by a national leader in cancer care. For nine of the past 11 years, including 2012, MD Anderson has ranked No. 1 in cancer care in the “Best Hospitals” survey published by U.S. News & World Report. “This is a game changer for our network,” said Community Health Network President and CEO Bryan Mills. “By teaming up with MD Anderson Cancer Network, we’re combining the best of what we provide locally with
the world-renown expertise of MD Anderson. Professionals in the medical field know the MD Anderson name very well, as it’s the gold standard for cancer care. Through our exclusive local affiliation, we’ll help to raise the standard of cancer care in Central Indiana.” Community oncologists now certified by MD Anderson Cancer Network will initially treat cancer patients at Community Hospital North and Community Hospital East. Plans are to seek MD Anderson Cancer Network certification of cancer centers at Community Hospital Anderson, Community Howard Regional Health, and at Community Hospital South. “Community Health Network has a long tradition of providing exceptional health care in Central Indiana. We’re excited about this new relationship, which will further enhance patient care by adding MD Anderson expertise,” said Bill Murphy, M.D., MD Anderson Physicians Network chairman. “Together, we’ll ensure that patients across Indiana have access to the highest quality cancer care available.”

Kids can shop at Carmel High School editorial@youarecurrent.com Holiday Secret Shop, formally known as Santa’s Secret Shop, is a student-operated retail lab that sells assorted gifts to children. It has been a tradition at Carmel High School for 35 years. While parents enjoy coffee, their children, ages two to ten, are instantly transported into a holiday wonderland. Kids have the unique and independent opportunity to buy gifts for their loved ones. All gifts, such as jewelry, toys, trinkets, candles, mugs, and other assorted kitchen accessories, are $10 or less! After they pick out their items, cheerful student helpers will wrap and address each present. Then, kids will be walked back to their waiting parents. DECA is a co-curricular organization that prepares emerging leaders in business, entrepreneurship, marketing, finance, hospitality and
tourism. CHS DECA students are mature, respectful, personable, and kind. They operate the shop and help the kids choose the perfect gift for parents, siblings, friends, and teachers. The Holiday Secret Shop will be open Nov. 26 through Dec. 1. The hours of operation during the week will be 2:30 to 5:30 p.m., and 10 to 2 p.m. on Saturday.

Volunteerism
Here a tree, there a tree Commentary by Jeff Worrell
The trees whose branches reach for the sky, Make the ground pleasant for you and I. Creating green beauty for all to see, Comes from the group known as Carmel Urban Forestry. Yes, they exist this band of volunteers, Quietly planting for so many years. It’s time to say thanks and give them applause And get you to think about joining its cause! Just look around our great City and you can see the result of 18 years of work from a committee tasked with the mission of creating an urban forest. Unless good planning and acute foresight are implemented, urban sprawl can eliminate the opportunity for urban forestation and is a blemish on many communities across America. The committee consists of people who tend to roll up their sleeves and work. People like Committee President Kevin Daugherty along with Dan Franzman and Cheryl Gettelfinger. Gettelfinger has served on the committee since its beginning and Franzman has put in 14 years. Jerry Williams, Gary Doxtater, Robert Hosler and Rod Rhoades are also racking up years of service. These Carmel citizens are appointed by the mayor to assist and guide the Urban Forestry Program for Carmel, and details about their mission can be found at www. carmelurbanforestry.com. Each year the group chooses a public location at which to plant trees as part of its Fall Neigh-
borhood Planting Program. The infestation of the Emerald Ash Borer has caused the destruction of many Ash trees in our city. So, earlier this month, the committee focused its effort on a section of roadway hard hit by the borer to replace trees lost. They planted a mixture of Green Vase Zelkova and Accolade Elm trees. Their work is truly noticeable even though it is usually accomplished without fanfare or hoopla. More than 1,000 new trees in Carmel can be attributed to the Carmel Urban Forestry Committee. It strives for at least a 50 percent tree canopy on every Carmel street. It manages the mix of species in order to guard against speciesspecific losses as a result of infestation. And, it promises to see to it that every tree removed from a street will be replaced by a new one. For these reasons and so many other important strategies it implements, Carmel receives the Tree City USA award annually. The Carmel Urban Forestry Committee is always looking for interested citizens who have an interest in protecting and growing our urban forest. Contact Dan Franzman at 574-0885 or danca4pu@aol.com.

Donatello’s full of holiday spirits editorial@youarecurrent.com Donatello’s Italian Restaurant is making use of its newly expanded space with exclusive holiday celebrations this year. The owners are meticulously planning a Christmas Wine Dinner on Dec. 4, where seven wines are paired with seven courses. Each dish and wine is served to you at your table as you hear why each wine was selected to go with the food. Owner Beth Aasen said it was a way to get all of their favorite customers together for the holidays and to sample some options from a new wine list. “With the old space, we were working out of a closet basically,” she said. “So now we have room for a greater variety of wines. We doubled our selection and we thought this would be an awesome way to showcase our new picks.” Donatello’s recently moved its dining room into the spot formerly occupied by La Mie Emilie and they’ve been trying to keep adding more options with the increased space. They added a new coffee shop which is now serving holidaythemed beverages, such as gingerbread, peppermint and eggnog flavored cappuccinos. Donatello’s is also getting into the holiday spirit by booking private parties, something they just didn’t have room for previously with such limited space. The restaurant nearly doubled
capacity from about 32 to more than 50. The owners, Beth, Patrick and Adam Aasen, are also one of the few non-chain restaurateurs who will be giving up their Christmas Eve to serve customers. “The customers you get on Christmas Eve are in such a good mood, that it’s actually a real pleasure to work that night,” Adam said. But its big holiday celebration takes place at the Dec. 4 wine dinner, which starts at 7 p.m. Diners will enjoy wild mushroom ravioli, Italian wedding soup, slow-cooked veal roast and much more. They will play games that test their wine trivia and learn about new wines they might not know about. Adam and Beth Aasen recently appeared on WISH-TV’s morning show, “Indy Style” to talk about how to pair wine with food. “It’s not just about whether you choose a red or white wine, it’s all about balancing the weight and characteristics,” Adam said, “and there are a lot of wines that break the traditional pairing rules.” Tickets to the wine dinner cost $85 per person and include tax and tip. The owners said about half of the 50 spots have been sold already, so eager customers can call them at 317564-4790 to save a seat. Donatello’s is located at 9 W. Main St. in the Carmel Arts and Design District.

Cover Story
Cancer, torn aorta, ER doctor, a horse. Goddard School owners share why they believe in miracles By Derek Fisher and Julie Osborne editorial@youarecurrent.com Blood slowly leaked from his heart, but nothing was going to stop him from finishing the race in honor of his 6-year-old, leukemia-stricken granddaughter. An ambulance was ready as he reached the hill – “No, I’m not quitting,” he said, before riding off with head down, vision blurred and neck stiffening. “If Lauryn can endure chemo, I can do this even if I have to crawl to the finish,” recalled Tom Rushworth, owner of Carmel’s Goddard School. The final leg, he walked arm-in-arm for 6.2 miles with his daughter/coach, surrounded by teammates cheering 59-year-old “Grampie” to the finish. In the last stretch, he scooped up his granddaughter and lumbered to the finish line, the last person to cross it. While teammates celebrated he went to bed, and the next day, flew home hoping his body would recover soon. Days later, he awoke in the intensive care, recovering from emergency open-heart surgery. It was the beginning of many miracles to come for Rushworth, his daughter, Dea Walls, and granddaughter, Lauryn Walls.
A miracle survival through a familiar face in ER
Athletes run with torn ligaments, but a torn aorta is almost always fatal as many don’t make it to the emergency room. But, the right doctor was in the right place at exactly the right time. “(St.Vincent Carmel Hospital’s) Dr. Michael Kaufmann had the proper training,” said Rushworth. “He started the CT Kaufmann scan higher than normal. Another doctor may have missed it and focused on my abdomen where I was having pain.” Kaufmann also knew this patient when he appeared in the St.Vincent emergency room that night. They met in a pool months earlier for training as Kaufmann is also a triathlete. “I recognized him right away when he arrived in the ER,” said Kaufmann. “You can’t even calculate the odds of him surviving. Not only did he survive the aorta tear, but he finished the race and then flew his family home in his plane. It’s inconceivable that he would survive. I believe in miracles.” www.currentincarmel.com
Miracles continue with remission
His life was not the only miracle. By that fateful race day in June 2010, Lauryn already was in remission. It all began in January 2008 when she arrived in the ER with random symptoms saying, “My heart hurts.” Soon, the doctors were spelling out C-A-N-C-E-R, so as not to alarm Lauryn (4) and sister, Jordyn (9). Her blood levels were critically low, so low that a scratched knee or bloody nose would have been fatal. Life changed with that one word for the entire family. “I left that day from work and didn’t come back for another year and a half,” says Walls, a Carmel resident and the owner of Zionsville’s Goddard School. For months and years to come, she remained optimistic. “We’re fighting this,” Walls recalled saying. “Cancer has taught me a lot. I could be angry with God but I never have been. Maybe God picked Lauryn because He thought she could make an impact. So, I saw it as an opportunity to teach my girls to embrace it and turn it into something good.” During the past five years Lauryn’s family, with the help of Goddard School families, has raised more than $100,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
Wish granted, then lost
Their faith, along with an extended support system of family, friends, doctors and coworkers, kept Rushworth and the Wallses strong throughout the 2 1/2 years of chemotherapy. In

August 2009, a Wish was granted through the Indiana wish Foundation. Lauryn’s wish was straightforward: “I want a horse,” she said, and soon Twister became a part of their family. By fall of 2010, life appeared to be returning to normal, but another obstacle was just around the corner. In November, Twister got sick and suddenly died Thanksgiving weekend. A wish was dashed and the family devastated. “I cried for weeks,” Walls said. “This horse was our wish, our dream.”
Another “Lil’” miracle arrives

but that horse really takes care of Lauryn. She brought hope back into our lives. It reminded us that good things can happen.” Good things continue to happen. Last Wednesday, Lauryn returned from her threemonth checkup all clear, while Grampie sat in his office at the Goddard School in Carmel grateful to be alive. “I came away with a whole new perspective,” he said. “I don’t take anything for granted anymore. God gave me help to get through this and a second chance. I’m not sure why, but I’m doing what I can to make the best of it.”
The following summer, while on vacation in Hilton Head, S.C., Jordyn took a horseback riding lesson that would have a lasting impact. After sharing their story, trainer Samantha from Lawton Stables was inspired into action. After the lesson, she said to Jordyn, “Lil’ Bit is really tired of doing lessons. I think she needs two little girls to take care of her. Do you think you would like to have her?” They were in disbelief at this stranger’s generous offer. Walls saw it as a divine encounter. “Lil’ Bit was the perfect horse for us,” she said. “She was therapy-trained so she Lauryn (8) and Jordyn (13) with Lil Bit (Andy Hoffman, Story is gentle with the girls.

Role reversal
It is our position that a paradigm shift in the gender gap is forcing a change in attitude among men and women. Women surpass men in the U.S. workforce, college graduation rates and now, in the number of licensed drivers. According to author, motivational speaker and radio show host Coach Michael Taylor, many men are becoming tired and frustrated with the antiquated male roles in society and it is probably for the better. Taylor believes that despite the uncertainty and confusion some men are experiencing, these changing roles for men are actually good and can actually help eradicate some of the social issues that plague our country and lead to divorce, financial woes and depression. He is asking men to join him in his new revolution which he calls, A Conversation with Men. How about instead of men having a conversation with one another, they have the conversation with their spouse. Does every movement need a label? Perhaps the primary breadwinner has always felt pressure when wearing the pants in the family. However, will a level playing field really create balance, or will women soon be reshaped and grow callused by the pressures of being the breadwinner? Only time will tell.

The last word
Commentary by Terry Anker
This business of putting thoughts to paper carries with it some joys, some laments and a dash of in-between. Those of us who manage to write regularly can extol the virtue of ranting at a keyboard instead of a coworker. We can claim the calm that comes from expression – even if it is never heard (or read) by anyone other than ourselves. For me over these past many years, writing has become a labor of love. While it took some time to figure it out, I finally understand the need of some to keep a journal or at least take some notes here and there. But like most of life’s pleasures, it is balanced with peril. When one puts pen to paper, it is hard to retract or rephrase. It is out there – uninformed or even ignorant – people get to judge based only on a few words one’s measure. I enjoy biographies of historic figures. The materials often come from meticulous research through the personal papers and even diaries of these people. Would they have
taken greater care had they known that years later others would be combing their random thoughts seeking inconsistency or worse? And when putting something into the public space, special attention must be paid to word choice. Is a phrase or use of lexicon offensive (unintentionally) or sending an inadvertent message? Does it mean something different to a reader not born in the US? Does it mean something different to a reader born after 1985? Has the thought that one believed to be so unique, already been said before? When we’re talking face-to-face, so much more data is shared. We can respond to the body language of the listener and respond on the fly to changes in mood. At least with the written word, one gets the last word.

It’s a great time of year, the colder weather notwithstanding, because it’s officially the start of the holiday season. Some big-box stores would have you believe the holiday shopping season began back around Aug. 17, but we still were slathering on the sunscreen back then. No, it’s on now, and this Saturday brings a special opportunity for you and those that own enterprises in our midst. It’s Small Business Saturday, something of its own national holiday in our circle, a day to celebrate and support small businesses and all they do for our communities. Please join us as we support the local shopkeepers by buying local; it is exactly that which will fuel our own holiday season. Many of our advertising partners are smaller businesses, and many of those are represented in Gifts 2012 in today’s paper. Help us help them make a difference - and their cash registers ring - on Saturday. Besides, you’ll find unique gifts that may be had only this way. That’s what also makes Small Business Saturday special. And when you shop those establishments, please thank the owners for doing all they do in participating in the local economy, for they are the backbone of it.

Save Thanksgiving
Editor, Last Thanksgiving, a handful of big name retailers started their Black Friday sales early by opening Thanksgiving evening. Recently, Walmart announced that they will be opening at 8 p.m. this year. For one Walmart employee I’ve talked to, this means coming in at 7:30 p.m. Thanksgiving evening and working until 4:30 a.m. I am very concerned about the families of this nation in regards to a national holiday that is uniquely American. In discussing this with my family, friends, and community, one young man I talked with pointed out the irony of this situation: A day set aside for expressing gratitude for what we have, is now a day where we find people lining up around buildings, essentially saying, “I don’t have enough, I need more!” Together we
must draw a line to separate Thanksgiving from Black Friday; it has gone too far. We need to save Thanksgiving Day. We encourage people to unify with us in this effort by taking the following steps: Write or email you governor encouraging them to declare and protect Thanksgiving as a holiday for retail workers; write or email your congressmen and senators to pass a bill that prohibits retail employers from making their employees work before 5 a.m. on Friday morning; write or email the corporate offices of the stores who are going to be open on Thanksgiving Day; and shop after 5 a.m. on Friday morning, otherwise you are supporting the retail corporations who’ve decided to make their employees miss out on their families’ Thanksgiving Day plans.

Wrong about Obama and GOP Editor, Your Backshop comments (Current, 11.13.12) about the election and President Obama couldn’t be further from the truth. If you guys can’t see an improvement in the last four years, I’d like to know what cave that you have been living in! The Republican Party has been taken over by theocratic, anti-science, racist, sexist, anti-environment, war mongers whose anti-intellectual ideas are more suited for a middle-Eastern country than our proud na-
tion, which stands for liberty and justice for all. I wish you would inform our residents instead of poisoning them with your toxic waste. Wake up and realize that gone are the days of old greedy white men running the ship. The Party of No needs to get with the program; its antigovernment stance is not helping the country. The last election proved that people want real liberty, not the Republican Party’s lip service and divisive tactics. John Collier, 46032

Doo versus Thai-hot
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
I love my husband. Not only is he the funniest person I know, but he also proves to be an endless source of column ideas. Typically it’s of the “Doo is driving me crazy!” variety, but occasionally the fodder is pure situation comedy. Take last night. We took the kids out to dinner to celebrate our eldest’s birthday. Doo’s mom also joined us and, as we piled into the mini-van, Doo mentioned that his stomach was a little on edge. He’d eaten Thai food for lunch with some buddies and thought maybe that was the source of his discomfort. Once seated, we ordered an appetizer and drinks, and Doo politely excused himself to go the restroom. He was gone for a good 15 minutes, long enough that he missed out on most of the calamari and bread. “Are you OK, babe?” I asked. “Do you want to just split something?” “That did not go well,” Doo replied with a sigh. “I worked through some of it, but the rest is coming. Soon.” Doo managed to finish his soup and about half of his salad, but had to excuse himself again before dessert. He told me to order him a coffee and the tiramisu, and then walked rather quickly to the men’s room. Ten minutes later he was back, still looking kind of off. “Why did I eat Thai-hot today?” he moaned. “We’re going to have to leave fairly soon. I’m not finished and it’s not going to be
pretty when I do.” So we paid our bill, loaded Grams and the kids back into the car, and began the relatively short trip home. I was driving. Before we even reached the stop sign in the parking lot, Doo turned to me and said, “I am not kidding. Get me home NOW or I can’t be held responsible for what happens in this seat.” His complexion was now the color of Sweet Mint, and a fine sheen of sweat had broken out on his forehead. Naturally, we all began to mock him. Through the guffaws, I could hear poor Doo chanting, “I’m not going to make it, I’m not going to make it.” As I giggled at the thought of a possible Bridemaids re-enactment, Doo frantically pulled out his phone and dialed his brother who lives about half way in between. “Have the door open and clear the way,” he yelled, clutching the armrest for dear life. “Hee, hee, hoo” I coached, and then literally let loose from laughing so hard. I’m not proud that I broke several speeding laws to get Doo to that bathroom, but I’d do it again in a heartbeat. Because I really do love my husband. Peace out.

flavor,” he said. Cordelia also cautions those preparing the turkey to be certain to remove all of the innards or “turkey parts” before proceeding with the seasoning and stuffing. “Some people like to stuff their turkey with celery, carrots, and onions which gives an added flavor,” he said. As for cooking the turkey, Cordelia recommends that you have a cooking thermometer to gauge the readiness of the turkey. “You want to make sure that you cook it through to the innermost part at 180 degrees. The length of time will depend on the size of the bird,” he said. “When it’s done you’ll want to let it set for 20-30 minutes before carving. If you carve too soon, the juices will run everywhere and that will dry out the turkey.” Finally, Cordelia offers this as possibly the most valuable piece of advice for maximizing the enjoyment of your Thanksgiving Day – “Plan ahead!” “Get as much done as you can on the day before Thanksgiving. That way you’re not spending all day in the kitchen,” Cordelia says emphatically. For more information on various turkey recipes and preparations, Cordelia recommends www.foodchannel.com.

Lawrence of Arabia: 50th Anniversary Edition • PG, 227 minutes Commentary by Chris Lloyd “Nothing is written,” T.E. Lawrence famously says. But almost from the moment “Lawrence of Arabia” hit theaters in 1962, it seemed destined to become one of the most iconic films ever made. It is by most reckonings the pinnacle of the epic movie-making impulse that surged in the 1950s and ‘60s – a grand, lush drama filled with exotic foreign trappings and a history-making tale to tell. It won a slew of awards, including the Best Picture Oscar, and deserved them all. A restoration of director David Lean’s masterpiece was released in theaters in 1989 – one of the last films distributed in a 70mm print. Now, a new digital remastering from the original film negative has been completed for the movie’s 50th

The story is familiar to any serious film lover: an oddball British lieutenant is plucked from obscurity during World War I to act as liaison to the disparate Arabic desert tribes, and he ends up forging them into a united army that helps take down the Turkish Empire. As he becomes a famous and charismatic figure, Lawrence finds his sanity crumbling as his lust for power grows. Movie: A

A game of one-upsmanship One-upmanship can be defined as the art or practice of successively outdoing a competitor. In our case the competition is not the opposing team, rather it’s the other tailgaters in our parking lot. Way back in 1992, I remember when a man attached a flag pole and flag to his minivan. His flag, sporting the team name and logo, waved in the fall breeze. The next game, another tailgater had a larger flag on a higher poll. Week after week the “war of the flags” rose to higher levels. Finally after all parties had taken things up to the highest level money could buy, one man arrived and dealt the coup de grâce. He brought an inflatable mini blimp, in team colors. He filled it with helium gas and let it rise to the sky, easily more than 100 feet. The blimp was tethered to his vehicle by a long rope and on the rope hung a huge team flag. The war of the flags was over! So much for one-upsmanship, right, or should I say “yeah right!” To try to make one’s tailgate set-up bigger and better is a natural male urge that must be allowed to run its course. Eventually, after accumulating tents, canopies, coolers, sound systems, themed vehicles, and bigger and better grills, each tailgater will start to realize that a tailgate party is a social event, not a competition. It’s a time to relax. Don’t get me wrong, it’s 22 | November 20, 2012
Nov. 25th, 9:30 a.m. at the FOUNTAINS in Carmel, IN
still fun to watch rookie tailgaters compete with one another, but for now, when we speak of competition it’s about having better food. Here’s a great cold weather dish that will stand out as the best food in your parking lot. It’s called bœuf bourguignon, or Beef Burgundy.
Ingredients: 2 to 3 pounds good beef (like chuck steak) cubed, 1/4 cup canola oil, 10 or more small onions peeled, but whole, 1 teaspoon kosher salt,1 pound fresh mushrooms, 1 bottle burgundy wine Prepare: Trim all the fat from the beef and then stir fry it in a large stew pot. Remove these pieces of fat with a slotted spoon and then add the cubed meat and oil. Brown this mixture for 20 to 30 minutes. Add the salt and onions and then cover the mixture with the wine and simmer 30 minutes. Clean the mushrooms with a brush and then slice them into thin profile slices. Add these mushrooms to the mixture and then cover with the remainder of the wine. Simmer 30 minutes longer and then take one piece of beef and taste it. If it’s tender and full of that rich wine taste, it’s done. If not tender then cook it longer. Joe Drozda is an author about sports and food.

Correcting post-nursing breast issues Commentary by Barry Eppley Q: I need to remove excess skin from below my belly button and lift my breasts. I breast fed all four of my children and had a set of twins who stretched my stomach out tremendously. I have tried situps, but they won’t take care of this loose skin. A: Multiple pregnancies, particularly twins, push the skin past its elastic deformation limit. In essence, it snaps the rubber band nature of the abdominal skin forever, relegating many women to loose and often floppy skin that is seen the most between the belly button and the pubic area. The surest sign of permanently lost skin elasticity are stretch marks, which represent incomplete tears in the skin. This is like making
little snips partially through a rubber band; it weakens or eliminates its elasticity. You are correct in stating that exercise is not going to tighten skin nor will weight loss. The problem is a surgical and will require skin excision and underlying muscle tightening, a perfect description for a tummy tuck. Whether your tummy tuck would be a partial (mini-) or a full tummy tuck I cannot say without seeing pictures of you. But my guess would be that after four children, a full tummy tuck with maximal skin removal is likely in order. Dr. Eppley is an Indianapolis board-certified plastic surgeon.

Preparing for and handling a home fire Commentary by Jamie Ianigro Question from Kenny C. from West Clay: The freak explosion on the south side has me trying to figure out a plan for my family if we are involved in a home fire. I don’t know where to start. Got any advice? Response from Jamie Ianigro: You’re a step ahead of a lot of people. Advanced planning is one of the most important factors in protecting your family from fire. Home fires injure over 13,000 people a year and kill nearly 3,000. The people most at risk are those over age 65 and children preschool age and younger. The first thing you need to worry about when it comes to protecting your family is smoke alarms. Every home should have at least one smoke alarm. Test the batteries on your smoke alarms monthly and replace the alarm every ten years. Make sure you always install new alarms according to the manufacturer’s directions. With all of your smoke alarms working, you need to create an escape plan. Make sure everyone in your family understands what to do when the smoke alarm goes off. Practice your escape plan in the dark so that you all know what to expect and how to navigate the home without electricity. Here are some things to keep in mind when coming up with your plan. • Know two ways out of each room. Have an escape ladder for rooms above the first floor. • Feel the door for heat before opening it. If
-featuringAPPETIZERS SALADS SANDWICHES
the door is not hot, open it slowly and take your normal escape route. If the door is hot, take your backup route. • Crawl if there is smoke. Most fire victims succumb to smoke and toxic gases. Stay below the smoke by crawling. • Have an arranged meeting place outside the house. Make sure everyone knows it. • DON’T GO BACK INSIDE. Let the fire department handle it from here. Lastly, insurance. Your independent insurance agent is going to be there to help you rebuild your life after a terrible loss, like a fire. It is important to make sure your insurance limits are adequate and up-to-date. Insurance policies are concerned with the cost of rebuilding your home (not to be confused with the market value). Be sure to review your policy with your agent annually. Your contents (furniture, clothes, etc) value is usually set at half of the rebuilding cost. Sometimes this limit can be inadequate and needs to be increased. Your independent insurance agent can provide a simple home inventory form to help figure out if you need to increase your contents limit. For more information on fire prevention, visit usfa.dhs.gov.

Thankful for a God we can know Commentary by Bob Walters
I am blessed to be around intelligent, brighteyed teenagers on a regular basis. Recently, upon learning that I write Christian commentary, a particularly upbeat eighth-grader sincerely and innocently offered “I don’t know what religion I am, but I believe in God.” I responded warmly, “That’s a great start.” Yes, a great start indeed. I am so very thankful there is a God we all can know; a God who has put it in our hearts and heads that He is indeed there, whether we know Him, want Him, love Him, praise Him, pursue Him, fear Him, trust Him, blame Him, or ignore Him. God is there and anyone can get to know Him. Each human story for “getting to know God” is unique. That reflects the truly unique nature of the Christian faith: the personal, relational presence of the holy creator and almighty God in our lives and humanity. That Presence – the One who God sent amid humanity to restore, adopt, and save us into an eternal loving relationship with God – is the Lord Jesus Christ. And the only way we can know that is through our faith in God, Christ’s grace, and the comforting, illuminating work of the Holy Spirit. That is the face of the Trinity, the God who Himself works as a loving community to bring us into loving community with Him. Sometimes it is gentle love, sometimes it is tough love, and some-
times it is truly inexplicable love. But we must begin to know God by remembering that love didn’t start with reason and people; love started with the creator God: “His love endures forever” (Psalm 136:1 and hundreds of other verses). “Forever” – that’s past, present, and future; beginning, middle and end. Believing in God – which is common to many faith traditions – is different from knowing God. The terms on which we “know God” – sacrificial love (Christianity), the Law (Judaism), God’s power (Islam), elimination of self (Buddhism), or whatever – defines our religion. What God offered to humanity through Jesus Christ is not only the unique physical human presence in time, space, and history of the one and true, eternal Creator God, but also the renewed gift of an eternal human relationship with God. Rationally, linguistically, and humanly, “love” implies relationship. Mercifully and uniquely, God’s love implies His active relationship with humanity and all His creation. God reaches deep into our hearts, minds and souls to make us aware He is there. In His love, God lets us decide freely, seriously, and independently “what religion we are.” Bob Walters (rlwcom@aol.com), still reeling from the national election results, is thankful for this unprecedented opportunity to exercise faith and trust in Christ alone. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on us.

Questions about carbohydrates in pet food Commentary by John Mikesell Grain free dry dog food has become wildly popular in the past few years. Many dog owners who feed grain-free foods don’t know why they are spending a small fortune on these foods .Or they may have reasons but are the reasons valid. The most common reason people say they have switched to grain free foods is because dogs don’t need carbs. They are partly right. Dogs do not need carbs. However, grain-free Foods do contain carbs. In fact many grain free foods contain a fair amount of carbohydrates in the form of potatoes, sweet potatoes, tapioca, or peas. Grain –free foods perform really well when fed to some dogs, but may be inappropriate for others, for example, when a high-fat or highprotein diet is contraindicated. Owners should feed their dogs diets that work best for their individual animals, and
Develop an accurate understanding of why those diets work well. There are two categories of carbohydrates: simple and complex. Simple carbohydrates require little or no digestive breakdown and are readily absorbed from the small intestine and converted into glucose. Complex carbohydrates are further categorized as either starches or fibers, and are digested more slowly than simple carbohydrates. Starches require additional breakdown by enzymes, produced by the pancreas and intestinal wall, before they are adsorbed and utilized by the dog. Few dog food labels list carbohydrates, it is not legally required. To
roughly calculate the percentage of carbohydrate in food, look at the guaranteed analysis on the label, and subtract the protein, fat moisture, and ash content from 100%. The remainder is an approximate percentage of carbs in the diet, and includes the food’s crude fiber. WHAT YOU CAN DO Listen to your dog! Skin, coat, eyes, stool, regurgitation/vomiting, energy, behavior, and urinalysis/blood work are all indicators of whether what you’re feeding is working. Don’t banish carbohydrates from your dog’s diet without understanding why you’re doing so. When feeding carbohydrates feed high
quality sources such as whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. If and when you make a dietary change, document it well: make a list of what was I the previous food, what’s in the new one, and compare. As an aside, which has nothing to do with carbs( well maybe a little) this time of the year ,with all the coming and going of holiday guests, don’t forget your pet. We need to take extra special care that our pets are not forgotten. It can be very stressful for them during the holiday season. Lots of good food around that they can get into. Some that can make them very sick. Lots of strangers around and doors left open, so they can sneak out. So keep an I out for your dog or cat, and if begins to look overwhelming for them, get them to a quiet place so they can relax.

A backyard playground for the entire family Commentary by Randy Sorrell What’s THE ultimate backyard living amenity? In my view, that distinction belongs to the custom fireplace and grill station. Experience proves that no other luxury brings people together and inspires more memories than this. This Villages of West Clay backyard handles both the large footprint of the home and the valued green space that weaves through the neighborhood and directly behind the home. Completely custom, no pre-fabricated components are seen here; it boasts a Wisconsin cobble and mortar exterior that echoes a gorgeous interior fireplace. Limestone counters are very appropriate for the tone of the space and were smartly sourced in Indiana, of course. Ample counter space grows from each side of the fireplace and will easily accommodate several visitors, particularly coupled with the already gracious size patio. The grill station counter proudly houses the “green egg” from Chef JJ in Broadripple, and it is easily the center of attention if you are a grilling dude. What a treat! Shade Almost every outdoor project has some sort
of shade management component and this was no exception. In fact, a southwestern exposure prompted this space to completely bake and become off limits for much of the summer. Strategically located, the new structure will protect the happy Carmel family in that challenging 5-8 p.m. timeframe when the sun manages to sneak below the pergola or porch roofline. Midday protection is accomplished with the help of abbreviated pergolas over each counter as well as an edgy overhead shade sail. Exterior grade blinds recessed between the pergola beams offer additional protection, help with privacy and magically behave as a screen on movie night. Dedicated homeowners with these marvelous structures appreciate that outdoor living can extend almost uninterrupted through winter with the right planning. We do have our limits though. What’s yours?

The beauty of an island Commentary by David Decker
Today, people use their kitchen for more than just preparing meals. The kitchen is the social center of the home where kids, adults, family members and party guests tend to congregate, which is why for many homeowners, no kitchen is quite complete without an island in the center of the space. Islands have become popular focal points of the modern kitchen, and it’s easy to see why. They make cooking and entertaining so much easier. And since the biggest cooking event of the year is on its way later this month, here are a few kitchen island design ideas just in time for Thanksgiving. Because they are centrally located, islands often become the focal point of the kitchen from a functionality standpoint. Islands make it easy to accommodate the activities and groups of people who are busy bustling around in the kitchen. And with the holidays approaching, it’s helpful to have space for the extra cooks who may be in the kitchen. Islands can function as extra countertop space, or they can be equipped with an extra sink to make an excellent cooking prep station. Some homeowners even choose to wire their stove onto a kitchen island, which frees up countertop space around other areas of the kitchen. Islands also function as easy-toaccess storage space or as a place to display food and beverages during a party. Certain kitchen island models become popular because they make it possible to do several activities at once. For example, there are island designs that feature multiple countertop levels. The lower level usually functions as a cooking workspace, while the higher level works as an elevated dining area. The multiple levels make it possible to cook a meal while entertaining guests at the same time. The key to the island’s popularity is versatility. With so many shapes and sizes to choose from, you can find a kitchen island that is specifically designed for the activities you do most. Kitchen islands can also become the focal point of the room from a design standpoint. A stylish island design can really beautify your kitchen space. You can make your island stand out by painting
“I am 70 years old. I have been taking medication for blood pressure and cholesterol. Needless to say, I was worried if I could start an exercise program safely. John Karesh made it a nice, gradual transition and I am surprised what I can do now. I feel better now than when I was in my 50s.” -Janice H.

it a bright or bold color. It’s a great way to make the island pop and to use fun colors that might be too intense to paint on the walls or cabinets. The countertop surface you choose for the island can also make a big design splash. I’ve seen islands with stone, wood and even stainless steel countertops. The countertop used on your island doesn’t necessarily have to match the surfaces found in the rest of your kitchen. In fact, the contrast will make your island stand out from the other kitchen countertops. Whether you’d like to make your island the center of your kitchen for functional or design reasons (or maybe a combination of the two), these ideas will help you make the most of your kitchen island space. Enjoy these last few weeks before the start of the holiday season because things are probably going to start to get very busy in your kitchen.
