OUR VIEWS

It is our position finding additional sources of revenue is necessary to eliminate the national debt. Some of the additional revenue should come from elimination of corporate giveaways and some of that additional revenue should come from the most fortunate among us, including some of us here in Hamilton County.

The National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform says the national debt crisis is the most predicable crisis we have ever faced. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Mike Mullen, testified in front of Congress the national debt is the greatest threat to national security our country currently faces. We must immediately put our country on a path towards the elimination of the national debt and increasing revenue is a necessary piece of that path.

If the reduced spending currently being discussed eliminates $2 trillion of our national debt over the next ten years, where will the remaining $12 trillion come from? If the money to eliminate the national debt doesn’t come from the most fortunate among us, from where will it come? Most importantly, would we really be ok with it?

Deficit: Spending cuts

It is our position the path to reducing the national deficit must be based on spending cuts. Since 1930 the United States has only had 12 years when it did not operate at a deficit; the most recent was 1997 to 2001 because of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997.

Congress must pass a Balanced Budget Amendment. This will prevent the federal government from purchasing favor with our money. The size and scope of government has exploded, and it must be reduced. Every day there is another regulation or restriction proposed requiring expensive, new oversight bureaucracies. These regulations are crippling businesses which are afraid to hire or worse, expand in the US. Although raising taxes on the “wealthy” sounds like an easy solution, there are not enough additional tax dollars to make a difference. In 2009, only 8225 people had incomes in excess of $10 million. Specialized tax loopholes could be eliminated, but these will barely dent the ever increasing deficit. In 2008, 97.3 percent of tax income came from the top 50 percent of income earners, leaving half of the country only paying 2.7 percent!

The top earners are already paying more than their fair share. (All statistics noted are from The Budget of the United States 2009 Historical Tables.)

NOTE: Occasionally, the reader-composed Editorial Board cannot reach consensus.

After hours of discourse, a compromise eluded. These two Editorials fairly illustrate the competing perspectives.

Teaching and telling

FROM THE BACKSHOP The Town Council, in what we view as a progressive move, is seeking residents’ participation in the newly created Impoundment Fund Advisory Board. This group will be responsible for reviewing applications for proposed town-funded projects in the Geist area. Those making application must be Fishers residents in Geist’s north, southeast or west areas, and will meet as required. No experience is necessary to participate. The north area will have one position, and the southeast and west areas will have three apiece. Getting taxpayers involved in control of expenditures is a terrific move. We hope those whose applications are approved will take their roles and representation of fellow taxpayers with the seriousness it deserves.

Brian Kelly & Steve Greenberg officially rejoice! The second-annual Carmel Marathon has heard your pleas and has moved from June’s sweltering heat to the more runner-friendly date of April 21, 2012. Marathon president Todd Oliver said he expects next year’s event attendance to top the initial running, which had more than 3,000 registrants from 45 states and 116 municipalities in Indiana. The timing of the 2012 event is perfect for marathoners who begin their training in January, and it will be the first event in the eight-week Midwest marathon/half-marathon season. This year’s running had an estimated $1 million impact on our county, which is wonderful for an out-of-the-chute event. We commend those in our county who turned out to run and put dollars back into our local economies.

COMMENTARY

By Terry Anker This week, I endured meetings where a consultant lectured an entity I support that its staff is not sufficiently creative to meet the expected challenges of the future. Yet, I had to wonder if we have expected them to innovate.

Do we, as an organization, understand the difference between teaching someone how to think and telling someone what to think?

From television pundits to university professors, so much emphasis is placed on one’s personal point of view and not on the reason that backs it up.

Routinely commentators bark from the blinking blue screen in our living rooms that “economists agree” on one matter or another. Rarely do we learn who these economists are and what they base their consensus on.

Yet, I’m sympathetic. Even with my own kids, I find it far easier to merely give orders than to provide options.

After all, I’ve already considered the choices and come to thoughtful conclusions. Isn’t it more efficient simply to help the young ones skip the deliberation and get right to the mindset? But on these very pages, I muse about the lost few who are

entirely ill-prepared to face adult life. For their entire existence, someone has been directing them to the point their capacity to critically analyze their environment is woefully atrophied. By keeping them from making their own decisions, are we dooming them to a life as followers? If so, or our nation, ever hope to innovate in coming generations?

The selfish stories of bedtime Commentary

By Danielle Wilson Are all men selfish little boys or is it just my husband? Sometimes I think the nuns up the street have a pretty good thing going. I’m a little frustrated with Doo right now, in case you can’t tell, and here’s why: Lately he has been driving me crazy with his “read in bed” thing. Normally he will listen to books on tape to “quiet the voices,” but he made the mistake of picking up the sequel to “I Am Number Four” (yes, it’s out!) and can only put it down if he’s swapping out for Angry Birds on his iPhone.

Last night he climbed into bed at 8 to read, I stayed up as long as I could to check work emails, but I was so exhausted from the joys of employment and motherhood, I crashed around 9:30.

Now, I must disclose I am a bit obssesivecompulsive when it comes to bedtime. It’s not I prefer complete darkness, 70-degree temperatures, a sound machine, four pillows and a mask, I require all of these things to fall asleep. If all goes well, I am usually out within 10 minutes, no Ambien needed.

But there’s a catch: If I don’t fall asleep within those first 20 minutes, I’ll miss my window of “sleepiness” and find myself in an adrenalinefueled panic mode for the next couple of hours.

You may have witnessed the same phenomenon with your kids, when they stay up later than usual. You know they’re exhausted at 11p.m.,

but they can’t settle down. I know I’m tired, but the anxiety of still being awake courses through me like a can of Red Bull.

I have issues, clearly, but the infuriating part is Doo knows this about me. This ain’t new, baby!

I’m an early riser and I need eight hours of zzzs.

Since the school year began, my stress level has skyrocketed, but Doo continues to read his book until 10:30, 11, while I not-so-subtly thrash around next to him harrumphing my irritation.

His reasoning? “It’s my bed too! Why shouldn’t I be able to do what I want in my bed?” How kindergarten is that? It’s not like I’m asking him to sleep in another room; I’m simply suggesting he read downstairs or listen to an audiobook.

Shouldn’t a spouse be considerate? Is it a big deal for him to change his reading location, when in return, he’d get a rested and happy wife? I just don’t get it. I’m going to try to talk with him today, before we get into another nighttime battle. Hopefully we will reach some sort of compromise because at this moment I just want to take his Angry-Bird-toting smartphone and shove it down the garbage disposal. I can act like a child, too. Peace out.

COMMENTARY

By Susan Bryant Kids and cell phones, the ultimate love/hate relationship for parents.

On one hand, a child having a cell phone can be incredibly helpful. Aside from the obvious advantage of parents and kids being able to reach each other in an emergency and everyday situations make instant contact beneficial. If your child is lobbying for a phone, he or she will undoubtedly tout the many ways you will be able to stay connected. (Because that’s what every kid really wants a cell phone for – to have as much contact with their parents as possible, right?)

In reality, your child may really be using his or her phone for texting friends, taking photos, playing games and surfing the Internet.

Also, kids may not be exaggerating when they claim “all their friends have them” when 75 percent of 12 to 17 year olds own cell phones (according to the Pew Internet and American Life Project, April 20, 2010.)

If you’re still holding out and your child doesn’t have a cell phone you may be thinking sexting, cyber-bullying and other bad things kids do with their phones are thankfully off your radar. No phone, no problems. Unfortunately, even if your child doesn’t have his or

her own phone, how other kids use theirs affects your child as well.

In situations where kids should be playing, talking or just hanging out – opportunities to enjoy someone’s company and develop social skills- a cell phone butts in with its snazzy ringtone alerting the owner something potentially more interesting awaits. Conversation is interrupted; face to face interaction is disengaged. Sadly, a flesh-and-blood human being can’t always compete with such an advanced gadget. When one kid’s cell phone takes priority, both kids lose out.

It’s not just an issue of manners, either.

Research indicates kids who rely on texting to communicate fail to develop basic conversational skills; being able to read body language and facial expressions is hindered, even maintaining eye contact is difficult. With no practice mastering these skills with their peers, and no apparent need to, they simply aren’t developing.

What does this mean for the kind of relationships our kids build with each other and with us? I’m a mom – I need warm, fuzzy moments. Emoticons don’t cut it. Will they be enough for future generations?

Fishers residents Zoe Franz and Cassandra Wiliams believe a donation to charity is the best present they can ask for

By Lauren Burdick editorial@youarecurrent.com What did you ask for on your ninth birthday?

The answer might be toys, or books… maybe even a puppy.

For 9-year-old Fishers resident Zoe Franz, however, the answer was something else altogether.

When Franz began planning her birthday party, she knew she wanted to celebrate in a different way from all of her friends. In lieu of a traditional birthday party with presents, Franz asked her friends to bring donations to the Humane Society of Hamilton County. This decision, she said, stemmed from the realization that her four-legged friends needed help more than she needed gifts.

“I was thinking, since I have so many presents, why don’t we just go to a dog shelter and give all the stuff to them?” Franz said.

“They have a lot of animals there. I just want them to know that I like the animals that they have.”

Giving response

When friends, and their parents, heard what Franz had in mind for her birthday, support ballooned, according to Franz’s mother, Kim. “They had all kinds of presents for the Humane Society themselves,” she said. “The parents all thought it was a really good idea; they couldn’t believe a 9-year-old would choose to donate. We ended up with hundreds of dollars of gift certificates and checks.”

“We were very proud of her that she thought, ‘I don’t really need anything. I have lots of toys,” Franz’s mother added.

This wasn’t the first time Franz and her friends have decided to put on a charitable hat, either. On a trip to Dave & Buster’s, Franz and her friends decided to combine their winning tickets to purchase toys to donate to other children in need. The toys were donated to the Julian Center, which supports victims of domestic violence.

“That was the real start of donating, as the girls began to see how much fun doing for others can be,” said Jodi Williams, the mother of one of the girls involved.”

Williams’ own daughter, Cassandra, caught the charity bug as well, she said. For her birthday, she asked guests to donate to the Indianapolis Zoo’s “Animal Amigos” program – specifically, to the cheetahs.

“I was thrilled, because I want her to start seeing the value in helping other people and being part of the community,” Williams said.

Cassandra has also been something of a budding “corporate” donor to the Humane Society, her mother said. Last year, she began a dog walking business. She donated a portion of her total earnings – a little more than $300 – to

Cassandra’s younger brother, Jacob, may be following in his older sister’s footsteps, according to Williams – although he has his sights set on donating to the zoo’s monkey program… or maybe the bats.

Wash them thoroughly before bringing them in to rid them of any pests and eggs. 2. Plant spring bulbs as long as the ground is workable. Plant the following bulbs soon: trout lily, narcissus (including daffodil), snowdrop, winter aconite, starflower, and crown imperial. For crown imperial, add a little lime to the soil.

The ‘staycation’ guide: A persimmon party COMMENTARY

By Jocelyn Vare Believe it or not, our state’s celebrations of local food are well known outside of Indiana. For example, visitors from across the Midwest come by the thousands to attend the Frankfort Hot Dog Festival, Valparaiso Popcorn Festival, Tipton County Pork Festival, Whiting Pierogi Fest, and, one of my favorites, Mitchell Persimmon Festival.

You’ve never heard of a persimmon or the week-long celebration devoted to it?

The persimmon is a plum-sized fruit with an orange color and a flavor similar to pumpkin. This unique little fruit grows abundantly in the city of Mitchell in Lawrence County. (You’ve heard of Mitchell. It is the home of Spring Mill State Park and is due south of Bloomington on Indiana State Road 37.

The 65th annual Mitchell Persimmon Festival will be held September 17 to 24. Over 40,000 people are expected to attend. The familyoriented festival is packed with kids’ activities, arts and crafts, live entertainment, a carnival and one of the state’s largest parades. The festival kicks off with the Candlelight Tour of the Pioneer Village at Spring Mill State Park on September 17. Costumed interpreters demonstrate pioneer life at the historic structures and the working grist mill.

Take a walk in Spring Mill State Park then take a break from your hike, cave tour or geocache hunt to stop by the Spring Mill State Park Inn, located in the heart of the park. You must try the persimmon pudding served at the restaurant. Persimmon pudding is a baked dessert with a texture like gingerbread and is served in squares with a dollop of whipped cream. Natu-

Persimmon pie rally, the persimmon pudding contest is one of the favorite events at the Persimmon Festival.

In fact, the award-winning recipe can be found on the Lawrence County Tourism Commission website, www.limestonecountry.com, so you can bake persimmon pudding at home.

Purchase the key ingredient (persimmon pulp) from Applacres, an orchard and general store in Bedford, just north of Mitchell. September is a great time for a visit to Applacres to purchase fall mums, pumpkins and apples, too.

Before you go to Lawrence County, contact Jill at the visitor center. She can help you plan your getaway and suggest lodging options for you. She’ll provide information on other activities in the area, including Bluespring Caverns’ underground boat tours, antique shopping, limestone tours and where to find the tastiest persimmon treats at the Persimmon Festival!

» Coffee buzz may be in your head – A new study suggests that it doesn’t matter if one drinks regular or decaf coffee, as long as you think you’re getting the high-octane stuff, you’re likely to respond accordingly.

University of London researchers told 88 coffee drinkers only that they were studying the effects of caffeine on mood and brainpower.

But those who drank decaf and were told they had regular reported the same boosts in mood and brain performance as those who drank regular coffee.

More than just size COMMENTARY

By Barry Eppley When the subject of breast implants or breast enlargement surgery comes up, many people immediately think about size. Large breasts create eye-catching cleavage comes to many minds, a concept not been helped over the past two decades from celebrities ranging from Pamela Anderson to Heidi Montag.

The reality of breast implant surgery is far from a celebrity-enhanced image; there is certainly a minority of women who do want this look. But the vast majority of women who choose to have breast implants are more interested in finding the right size for their body, not overpowering breasts that become the focal point of their appearance.

Most breast augmentation patients are average women who simply want to look better in clothes and sport attire. I have seen many women who have told me that they are embarrassed to wear a bathing and won’t go to the pool or beach with their family. While breast underdevelopment is the most common motivation for getting implants, there are numerous other reasons. These include such breast conditions as post-pregnancy sagging, asymmetrical breasts, body proportioning, breast asymmetry and reconstruction after mastectomies.

Pregnancy and nursing can have an adverse effect on a woman’s breast shape, size and cause sagging and a change in the amount of breast

tissue. Many women are unaware it is completely normal to lose breast tissue after pregnancy, a phenomenon known as involution. The combination of involution and sagging skin can deflate women’s self-image; these are women who simply want to return to their pre-baby size and shape.

There are many women who have breast asymmetry; one breast is larger or different in shape than the other. In some cases the breast size difference can be as much as a cup size. For women afflicted, finding a bra to fit comfortably and properly is not as easy as going to Victoria Secret’s and pulling a good fit off the rack. Instead, they are forced to add padding to create a more even look in their clothing.

One of the most recognized and easily understandable reasons for implants is in breast reconstruction. The physical and emotional devastation of going through any form of a lumpectomy or mastectomy procedure can be softened knowing reconstructive surgery can be performed. Although numerous forms of breast reconstruction exist, including flaps that form the breast mound out of your tissues, implants still remain the backbone of how most breasts are recreated.

Dr. Eppley is an Indianapolis board-certified plastic surgeon.

If you earn $60,000 per year, that is merely a 2 percent increase in the deferral rate, yet your paycheck will only go down roughly $75, because it is pre-tax.

Gratitude achieves goals COMMENTARY

By CJ McClanahan Look around your house (including your garage) and ask yourself the following question: “How much of this stuff fulfills a need vs. a want?” I think you’ll be surprised with the answer and may ask yourself, “why do I keep buying all this stuff?”

In his book, Buyology, marketing guru Martin Lindstrom points out the majority of advertising in the world is focused on the emotion of fear. He argues “fear-based” advertising plays “less on our generalized anxieties and more on our insecurities about ourselves.”

Why do advertisers focus on our insecurities to sell their products? One reason - it works. Most Americans get their sense of self-worth from their possessions and status in comparison to their peers. As a result, we continue to buy when we feel our lives are lacking something. Advertisers help us recognize a need for more and they have just the product/service to fill this void.

The only way to resist the urge to continually fill your life with stuff you don’t need is to learn to be grateful for the current position in your life. I believe practicing gratitude is one of the most important habits any professional can develop, it helps us keep everything in perspective.

Learning to focus on what you have instead of what you don’t can help you to enjoy more professional success. It will reduce your stress and improve your ability to the types of effective decisions leading to growth.

To get started, here are a few simple strategies to help make gratitude part of everyday life.

Start by creating a “gratitude list.” This list will include everything you’re grateful for. You will include family, home, friends, etc. Go a step farther and document your gratitude for all of the little things most people miss (trees outside your window, the smell of a fresh flower, etc.).

Next, consider keeping a journal to document what you are grateful for each day. Here, you will capture unique situations in your everyday life. You couldn’t flip through more than a few pages in my journal without finding a note about how grateful I am for my neighbors who have become some of my closest friends.

Be a good steward of your resources, give a portion of your time and money away to others who are less fortunate. I also believe the more you give away the less you feel yourself distracted by the “stuff” causing everyone else so much stress.

You don’t need to give away all of your possessions and move to a third world country to understand what it means to be grateful. As with most things in life, the solution is simple. All you need to do is choose to execute. Choose wisely.

Does my insurance cover pet attacks?

INSURANCE Q&A

By Jamie Ianigro Question from Paula C. from Noblesville: I have a big friendly dog, but I’ve always worried what would happen if she bit someone.

Am I protected if something like this happens?

Response from Jamie Ianigro: Issues – We all love our pets. They make great family members, playmates and protectors, but they are always causing problems for insurance companies. Nearly two million people are bitten by dogs each year with around 800,000 of those folks requiring professional medical treatment for their wounds. Each of these incidents is a potential lawsuit and happened to unsuspecting pet owners just like us.

Millions of U.S. households own dogs and incidents show no sign of slowing down. A key factor contributing to these incidents is the failure of dog owners to supervise and train their pets. Another problem is people, especially children, do not know how to behave around dogs.

Coverage recommendations – The best part about this issue is you’re already protected if you have a homeowner’s insurance policy.

Just make sure you have adequate limits to protect you from financial damage if you have an incident like this. I recommend everyone have a minimum liability limit of $1,000,000.

Adding an extra million in coverage with an umbrella policy is also a good idea and doesn’t cost as much as you might imagine.

Your liability limit is not just for pet attacks either. It protects you from many unfortunate incidents like when a guest slips and falls in your driveway or when your kid accidently drives the lawn mower into the neighbor’s new Mercedes. Make sure you read your policy or go over it with your independent insurance agent to see what is excluded.

Prevention – When you own a pet you have a responsibility to raise and handle your pet to reduce the chances of an incident. You should always make certain family members, neighbors, guests and strangers are protected from your pet. You should check out the resources available to help, such as tips from animal shelters, dog ownership clubs, the American Kennel Club and websites.

It may not be the fairest set of circumstances, but many insurers are choosing not to give dogs or their owners a fair chance. It is becoming more common for companies to refuse to write coverage for people who own certain breeds of dogs. The breeds commonly excluded include Chows, Pit Bulls, Akitas, Rottweilers and Sharpeis. Therefore, you must fight this trend and not take pet ownership lightly.

Jamie Ianigro is with Shepherd Insurance & Finanacial Services.

THREE DEFENSIVE STOCKS Consolidated Edison stock price over 12 months

Consolidated Edison (ED) – Con Edison’s primary business is providing electricity and gas to millions of customers in New York City and Westchester County. That is, in good times or bad, if the folks in New York want to keep their lights on, they’re going to keep paying Con Ed. Con Ed’s stock has a five-year beta of 0.3, a relatively high, but still reasonable, debt-to-equity ratio of 93 percent, and a very sweet 4.3 percent dividend.

Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) – Looking at the big pharmaceutical companies, one can easily find cheaper options than J&J. So why go with the more expensive J&J? Because we’re playing defense here and J&J has broader, more diversified business with less risk from expiring drug patents.

Johnson & Johnson stock price over 12 months

Its valuation multiple might not be the lowest, but with a 3.6 percent dividend, a five-year beta of 0.6, and a debt-to-equity ratio of 30 percent, it’s a stock you can feel very comfortable with even when the market is quaking.

Procter & Gamble (PG) – Gillette, Crest, Tide, Pepto-Bismol -- these are just a few of the many blockbuster brands at P&G. Even when tough times strike, consumers will still be shaving, brushing their teeth, doing laundry, and (maybe even more so) treating upset stomachs. With a 3.4 percent dividend, a debt-to-equity ratio of 47 percent, and a five-year beta of 0.5, rarely will P&G’s stock inspire panic.

Fire up some flare for your home Too many cooks? Too little kitchen?

COMMENTARY

By Randy Sorrell Fire features, from rustic to elegant with many styles and price points in between, are all the fun imagined. Often they are just happy to look at or hang around, but absolutely get ready for big fun when the flames are happening. Kids gravitate to them, especially when the marshmallows, graham crackers and chocolate appear. Adults? We simply appreciate the mood and any excuse to relax. Our family has discovered conversations go frantic, neighbors migrate and imaginations percolate around fire.

Our favorite type of fire feature is encouraged from the home’s architecture, neighborhood setting and the intended purpose.

Naturalized / woodsy settings harmonize well with a rustic boulder fire pit. More formal settings like to be paired with something uniform and predictable (not one of my favorite words).

But, even the predictable can be zinged up with a compelling cap stone or some sort of insert.

We’re a fan of different. If everyone else on the block has a custom brick and mortar fireplace with a remote control starter, recessed flat screen and built in espresso bar, let’s do something else. Why not natural stone walls with a flagstone cap similar to the photo featured?

It has a gas starter for convenience, feeding a

It’s just hard to not relax and have fun around a fire feature. circular fire ring performing dramatically over Hawaiian lava boulders artfully crushed into intimate pieces. It adds another interesting texture and color to the overall project. If the happy homeowner is interested in adding a small log for smoky interest, fantastic.

What better way to engage than sitting on custom seating. Seat walls are popular (another bad connotation), very affective and compact.

Jazz them up easily or punctuate them with landscaping to hug the space and determines the mood.

Fall is the ideal time to gather your loved ones around one of these hot fashion statements. It’s just hard to not relax and have fun around a fire feature. Consider it therapy.
