Officer saves teen on spring break

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com A police officer is never off duty, and Lt. Bruce Barnes proved that recently while 1,000 miles from his home in Noblesville.

Public Service The family of Travis Gaines credits Barnes with saving the life of the 18-year-old, when, on April 2, Gaines, a high school baseball player from Lexington, Ky., was on spring break with his team in Destin, Fla., when he misjudged the water’s depth, jumped in and struck a sandbar – injuring his neck.

Barnes, who also was on the beach vacationing with his family, saw Gaines was in trouble and quickly responded to the situation.

“Lt. Barnes was on the beach and pulled the young man from the Barnes water, taking appropriate precautions for neck injuries. Bruce and a vacationing paramedic firefighter from Southfield, Mich., resuscitated the young man while waiting on local paramedics to arrive,” Noblesville Police Chief Kevin Jowitt said.

Gaines is recovering at a Pensacola hospital.

His family thanked Barnes for his quick thinking and gives updates on Travis via a Facebook page in his name at www.facebook.com/ LetsRallyAroundTravisGaines.

“Even though there were paid lifeguards on duty nearby, were it not for his keen eye to recognize that Travis was in distress from several yards away, quick thinking to pull Travis to safety and preserve his neck, we would all be attending a funeral this week instead and would not have the hope that he

may once again walk some day in the future,” the family wrote. “We all know that it takes a special person to remain vigilant for other’s safety, even though being off duty with his wife and kids.”

Gaines was airlifted to a hospital in Pensacola on April 4. Barnes made a trip there to visit with Travis and his family.

“He’s a brilliant kid with a 4.0 grade point average and a scholarship to a well-known school in Kentucky,” Barnes said.

Jowitt said Barnes only agreed to share news of the rescue with the hope that it could help Gaines’ family raise money for his medical care. Donations can be made at https://fundrazr.com/campaigns/bTlzd.

“I just want people to know about his situation to hopefully make things easier on him and his family,” Barnes said. “I like to think that in that situation, anybody would have done the same thing I did.”

Gaines was air lifted from Pensacola to a Louisville rehabilitation center on April 11.

A late night fire caused $100,000 of damage to a Noblesville condominium.

At 1:03 a.m. April 13, the Noblesville Fire Dept. was dispatched to 10754 Eldorado Circle in the Enclave and Sagamore Condominium addition. NFD Division Chief Rick Russell said the condo is owned by Kevin Murray, but the structure is occupied by James and Randisa Arnold and their two children.

“The home owners were watching TV when the smoke detectors inside the home started to sound.

The occupant, James, said he discovered a fire inside the attached two-car garage,” Russell said.

At 1:08 a.m., firefighters arrived and said they saw smoke and flames visible from the garage. Russell said fire personnel had the fire under control at 1:31 am.

The cause is still under investigation. Russell said there were no injuries from the fire.

ASK ABOUT OUR SPRING INCENTIVES!

Like Washington, D.C., and Indianapolis, Noblesville is raising awareness of Prevent Child Abuse Month with a simple symSCHOOLS bol – a blue pinwheel.

On April 16, members of Hearts & Hands, the local organization within General Federation Women’s Club, planted 190 blue pinwheels outside the Noblesville Boys & Girls Club on Conner Street. Organizer Alice Duke said the pinwheels will remain throughout April.

“The Boys & Girls Club has a lot of children here, and it’s the main street of town and we thought it would help get visibility,” she said.

“The pinwheel is a national symbol of childhood and the bright future all children deserve.”

Hearts & Hands’ connection with the club also extends to its meetings. At each club meeting, Duke said the ladies fill snack bags for the kids to have a healthy snack to take home for the weekend. The club is also involved with Heart and Soul Clinic in Westfield, sponsored a family from Good Samaritan during the holidays and donated to the Indiana Emergency Medical Services for Children to purchase a pediatric pulse oximeter for regional agencies and to its scholarship fund.

“We do things to help our community,” she said.

Duke said the volunteer club was formed in Noblesville two years ago with eight charter members and has since grown to 15 members.

Crunch time for the Legislature Commentary by Kathy Richardson

Ironing out the details of the state’s biennial budget from now until the end of session will be the top priority for the Legislature. The House, Senate and Governor’s ofstatehouse fice have all released their version of what the state’s budget should look like with many similarities seen in each financial blueprint. There have also been some key differences in how we fund education initiatives, infrastructure improvements and public health, but I am confident that in the remaining weeks we will come to an agreement that keeps Indiana fiscally sound, maintains prudent reserves, provides additional tax relief and properly funds critical public services.

All of the bill reading deadlines have passed, so the only bills still being discussed are ones that the House and Senate disagreed on through amendments enacted in the second chamber.

Republican and Democrat members from both houses make up the conference committee where a compromise is either agreed upon or the bill dies.

There are many issues still before the General Assembly that are being discussed and need further review and consideration. I look forward to approaching all the issues remaining with civility, especially the more controversial topics.

An honest and open discussion is needed for these topics to ensure Indiana is putting its best

foot forward.

As a quick highlight to where some of the major pieces of legislation currently stand, the referendum on the expansion of mass transit in central Indiana was moved to a study committee. The Senate wanted some additional time to analyze the fiscal impact and financial stability of the project.

Legislation establishing the Indiana Career Council, which addresses Indiana’s skills gap and workforce development needs, has passed both chambers and will be signed into law by Gov. Pence. This is a critical piece of legislation to lower Indiana’s unemployment rate by more closely matching employment opportunities with skills training programs for Hoosiers.

Lastly, the overhaul of Indiana’s Criminal Code, House Bill 1006, which has not been significantly updated in more than three decades, is continuing to be discussed. A patchwork of changes has been made throughout the years to the code, increasing the need for greater consistency and proportionality in sentencing.

It is crunch time for the Legislature. I encourage everyone to stay involved and active in the process until we conclude session in the next few weeks.

Kathy Richardson (R-Noblesville) is the state representative for District 29. She can be reached at h29@ in.gov

Noblesville High School’s speech team is making history

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Six Noblesville High School juniors have advanced to the national speech team competition – the first group ever in the school’s history to do so.

On June 16 through 21, Alec Bullough, Chase COVEr story Elliott, Pete Freeman, Sara Highers, Kristen Pimley and Louis Sorto will visit Birmingham, Ala., to participate in the largest academic competition in the world.

“I’m so excited to spend a week with these guys – so excited,” Highers said. “This is my first year on the team, and I get to have this experience.”

“This is the largest thing to happen in my life,” Sorto said. “It was only a dream. For the past few years I thought about district and going to the finals. It’s just amazing.”

To inspire his team, Speech Team Coach Evan Elliott handed each student a picture of downtown Birmingham before the district qualifier.

“He told us, ‘This is where you are going.’ It was cool motivation,” Freeman said.

“It really set your eyes and kept focus – you can achieve it. ‘I am a national qualifier,’ we had to repeat that,” Pimley said.

Being on the speech team takes devotion, as it practices three times a week and attends meets on the weekends.

“I haven’t slept in on a Saturday from October to April,” Highers said.

“My work schedule was a big thing. I had to leave a previous job because they wouldn’t give me Saturday’s off,” Chase Elliott said.

Each speech competition includes 15 different events with three rounds and a final. Participants said an average meet takes eight hours – 13 if you are at district.

“You gotta like the people on the team or else it’s a long day,” Pimley said.

Time together in the classroom, practices, meets and being out in the community has created a strong bond between the students.

“I’ve played every sport under the sun, and I’ve never been on a

team that’s such a family as this team is,” Freeman said.

“Sometimes, we go to practice even if we don’t have anything to do, just to be with the people,” Sorto said.

Team members said their time on the speech time has provided lifelong speaking skills and improved self confidence.

“I was a withdrawn, quiet kid,” Sorto said.

“It’s a complete one-eighty from who I was,” Bullough said. “My teachers at White River are completely surprised I do this.”

Bullough became a member of the speech team because he was interested in government and political-related events.

“I needed an outlet for that. I like mock Congress and foreign topics – I get more excited than a 6-year-old boy on Christmas morning. I just really enjoy it and talking to people about other ideas,” he said. “I learned to be more agreeable.”

The NHS speech team, which was started by Greg Richards, has been off and on since the early ’90s until fromer teacher Kristin Kotsu brought the team back during the 2007-08 school year. Elliott is in his second year as coach. The real estate agent was a speech team member for one semester while he was a student at NHS. He got back into speech team as a judge for Kotsu for two years.

“I watched a lot of practices and competitions and have a pretty lengthy theater background,” Elliott said. “I wanted to build upon that.”

This year, the speech team has set school records with 14 sectional runners-up, 18 district runners-up, the first district champions and 23 entries to the state meet.

“To have so much success off the bat is a blessing,” he said. “My expectations were not very high.”

Elliott credits his students and their desire to become better as the key to the team’s success. As their success grows, so too does interest in the team.

“We have incredible team leadership. These students are so well respected in high school. If they say speech is something you need to do, others will surely follow,” he said. “I’ve personally spoken to 60 students interested in joining next year.”

Pete Freeman

• Grade: 11 • Activities: NHS Millstream newspaper business manager, CEO of Sparrow Program, Venture Crew members (Boy Scouts), Sunshine Friends, SENS Foundation, played on the tennis team and works at the Hamilton County Visitors and Convention Bureau.

• Future plans: Attend Notre Dame and major in biochemistry.

Freeman wants to be a biomedical gerontologist and work on life extension.

Sara Highers

• Grade: 11 • Activities: Dance team member, junior editor for Croquet Club (literary), Mock Trial member, National Honor Society and works at Chick-fil-A. • Future plans: Highers is undecided on what college she will attend or her major, but as long as she’s involved in public speaking, “I’ll be happy.”

Kristen Pimley

• Grade: 11 • Activities: Co-captain of speech team, debate team, Key Club, competing in science fairs (her topic is “which antibiotics are most effective in treating E. Coli?”), played tennis and published book with Elliott.

• Future plans: Attend out-of-state college, hopefully Bard College, and dual major in English and cosmetic science. Pimley said she wants to “help women feel comfortable and confident.”

Louis Sorto

• Grade: 11 • Activities: Co-captain of speech team, student government junior class president, Sparrow Program, Students Against Cancer, Key Club, Life Teen at church, Live2Serve, French Club and French Honor Society.

• Future plans: Attend New York University to dual major in international affairs and public relations. Sorto wants to experience the different world cultures – if not first-hand, then to learn about them.

FROM THE BACKSHOP An improved Current designed just for you

Growing tolerance It is our position that the Anne Frank Center USA Sapling Project serves as an important reminder of the need for tolerance. One of 11 saplings from the 170-year-old white horse chestnut tree that was Anne Frank’s only connection to nature during the two years her family hid from the Nazis during the German occupation of the Netherlands, was recently planted in the Anne Frank Peace Garden at the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis.

The sapling is a living monument to Anne’s pursuit of peace and tolerance, and at the same time will serve as a powerful reminder of the horrors caused by hate and bigotry and the need for collective action when humanity fails.

As Anne wrote in her diary, “April is glorious, not too hot and not too cold, with occasional light showers. Our chestnut tree is in leaf, and here and there you can already see a few small blossoms.” May tolerance grow in tandem with Anne’s beautiful chestnut tree.

Visit the Anne Frank Peace Garden and enjoy the blossoms in honor of Anne and those like her. And like those who made the Sapling Project possible, there is more good in the world than evil. For more information on the Sapling Project, go to www.childrensmuseum. org.

Is collusion the real threat?

Commentary by Terry Anker There are scores of expressions to describe the disposition of government officials to take our money and use it like a venture fund manager. The current nomenclature calls it government entrepreneurship. One wonders if it is an assistant, barrier or competitor with a healthy free-market. Entrepreneurs do great things and change the world, but they also take breathtaking financial risks and routinely fail.

The natural government monopoly boasts a gaggle of advantages outpacing even the most competitive private company. In a world where rapacious private businesses are attracted to easy money and public guarantees, shouldn’t government “assistance” be limited to the broadest possible private entrepreneur participation?

When speculating on who can claim credit for entrepreneurial success, some would openly assert that the individual entrepreneur “didn’t do that.” Even if one assumes veracity in this supposition, would it likewise be accurate to claim

that government “didn’t do that either?”

Indiana is in the black. In fact, the current governor is locked in some James T. Kirk like battle with an alien Republican legislature about the return of some of those tax dollars to those who were overcharged for the services. A balanced budget amendment prevents official largess being unchecked. Yet, we still set aside dollars to spawn home-grown high-tech companies. We build and maintain infrastructure. And, we directly support countless stadiums and billionaire sport team owners.

The pressure to undertake ever more expensive and elaborate schemes from entrepreneurial government officials is intense but no more so than the rent-seeking tendencies of entrepreneurs inside the private sector. Is collusion between these two forces the real threat?

You’re noticing something different about Current today, aren’t you? You found the paper on which the news and ads are printed to be a little brighter, right? You also noticed that the pages are “stitched” by two staples on the fold, meaning no more loose sheets, correct?

You also detected that the paper is ever-soslightly shorter and narrower, we’re guessing.

It all is owed to a decision we made to move our printing efforts to a new location.

Cox Media Group of Franklin, Ohio, effective with this edition, handles the printing, inserting and packaging tasks for all Current products and the Carmel Business Leader, as well as titles produced by our “sister” company, Times-Leader Publications (The Southside Times, Hendricks County ICON, Center Grove ICON, and the Southside Business Leader and the Hendricks County Business Leader).

We’re excited about the change, because we believe it will provide a better reading experience. We’re still printing on paper that contains post-consumer content, and we’re still using low-rub, soy-based ink, which we believe to be important. Our art director, Zach Ross, has made subtle changes to the appearance of the news report, including new typefaces, story identifiers and different ways to package the news. By virtue of his moving ads to the “outside” edges of the paper, he has created something of a news well, which will accommodate a changing news presentation.

We hope you enjoy the improvements, and we invite your comments at info@youarecurrent. com.

Not sure I still want ‘it’

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Despite being a happily married, over-40, ginger from Kentucky, I can apparently still attract the men. Of course, that’s not humor necessarily a good thing.

One of my sisters and I decided to road trip to Atlanta for the NCAA basketball semi final game. You may recall my fateful trip to New Orleans last April which culminated in my screaming at Doo through tears, “I am not driving you home!” So this year we left husbands at home for some quality sister time.

Louisville won the game, there was very little drama, and apart from never being able to locate the stupid ESPN Gameday set-up − where were you, Jay Bilas? − we had a marvelous time.

What I didn’t anticipate, though, was how not having a man constantly at my side somehow equated to, “I’m single and looking for love.” And before you ask, yes, my wedding ring was on and no, I wasn’t dressed in brothel attire.

Bachelor number one? A 50-something farmer from Wisconsin at the game. Sure he weighed a little more than 350 pounds and my seat kept catching his thigh fat every time I stood, but Jerry and I hit it off. Maybe too well, in fact. Even after I told him about my four children and brilliant husband, he continued to pay me compliments and insinuate that we should meet up. Luckily the thrill of the victory carried

me out of the arena before I had to address the issue. Sorry, Jerry!

Next up, a college student from Michigan. As Sis and I exited the 100-level area of the dome, a very good-looking guy approached, flashed me a gorgeous smile, and said something about tickets. Huh? What? Yes! And when I handed it over, he went straight for the hug. I don’t even embrace friends, let alone strangers, and I know he just wanted my seat, but he had a dimple! No, wait. I have a son not much younger than him. Eeewwww. Mrs. Robinson? I don’t think so.

Finally, a total dingbat who was only in town for the free concerts. When I went to the hotel bar later that night, El Ding launched into an abusive diatribe on how badly Michigan was going to beat Louisville in the championship. He obviously considered his little speech some kind of courtship ritual because as soon as my fries arrived and I turned to leave, he offered to buy me a drink. And not as an apology. No thanks, ya loser. I’d rather be with Jerry.

So it seems I’ve still “got it.” Just not sure if I want it. Peace out.

We actually ‘prommed’ at prom Commentary by Mike Redmond

It is getting to be Prom Season, so naturally my mind turns to memories of my own prom, back during the Flintstonian Era, humor when the Lakeland High School gym was transformed into a magical wonderland and the evening lived up to its theme, “Disaster Under The Stars.”

No, not really. I think the theme was “Moonlight and Magnolias” or something to do with the Antebellum Southern United States, which of course made absolutely no sense for kids living in Anabaptist Northern Indiana. I guess the prom committee had all seen “Gone With The Wind” before they voted. Good thing it wasn’t “Guadalcanal Diary.”

Lakeland had been open something like eight years by the time my class’s prom came along, which means it was already mired in tradition, such as having the VersaTones, a three-piece band from Elkhart (drums, sax, accordion), back to provide the music, and some cheesy stage hypnotist to making certain of us crow like roosters or revert to our kindergarten selves. As you might have guessed, the faculty chose the entertainment because we students could not be trusted to come up with something tasteful. Of course they were right, but that’s beside the point.

Another tradition was that we actually prommed. That is, at a certain point in the evening, a signal went out and we all lined up behind Mrs. Booth, the stern business teacher who chose the

band, and clomped a few laps around the gym floor while our parents looked on from the mezzanine. Most of our parents, I should say. My mother made it abundantly clear that she was not about to drive 12 miles into town to watch a bunch of kids walking in circles wearing rented clothes.

Oh, yes, the clothes. This was the era of skyblue and Pepto-pink tuxedoes with lapels like car doors, Ricky Ricardo ruffled shirts, and bow ties the size of cecropia moths. Except for me. As befits a shy, conservative type such as myself, I chose a plain black formal suit. Compared to my pastel-hued classmates, I looked Amish. Wait. It was double-breasted. Make that Mennonite.

The prom itself went along as they all did back then. Couples pulled up in gleaming washed and waxed family cars, walked through the same doors they walked through every school day, and made their way to the aforementioned gymnasium-slash-wonderland, a beauteous riot of crepe paper and balloons with only the faintest whiff of sweatsocks. There we waited in line while some sophomore announced each couple to a room full of people who couldn’t care less, all of us just having seen one another out in the hallway.

Oh, the magic of it all.

Menopause: A celebration of ‘the change’

By Patricia Rettig • news@currentinwestfield.com

The 40th Anniversary Season heats up in a flash as “Menopause, The Musical” makes its debut at Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre, 9301 N. Michigan Rd., Indianapolis. This hilarious and fun celebration of women and “the change” is live on stage now through May 12.

Written by Jeanie Linders, “Menopause, The Musical” is set in a department store, where four women with seemingly nothing in common but a black lace bra meet by chance at a lingerie sale. The all-female cast makes fun of their woeful hot flashes, forgetfulness, mood swings, wrinkles, night sweats and chocolate binges. A sisterhood is created between these diverse women in this uplifting production that includes parodies from the ’60s and ’70s and ’80s.

It culminates with a salute to women who are experiencing “the change.”

Beef & Boards’ production features Indianapolis residents Judy Bridgewater and Tiffanie Bridges.

Bridgewater is a native Hoosier who owned the Young Artists Studio of Performing Arts for more than 30 years and currently teaches private voice lessons at Lawrence Central High School. Bridges has lived in Indianapolis for 14 years and has performed in productions of “Menopause, The Musical” for eight years in nearly 40 cities. Joining these ladies are Dee Etta Rowe (last seen at Beef & Boards in the 2008 production of “The Sound of Music”) and Rebecca Fisher, who is making her Beef & Boards debut.

Artists announced for open house

By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com

About 70 artists, six of them from Hamilton County, will open their Exhibition studios to visitors during the two-day, 20th annual Raymond James Stutz Artists Open House Friday and Saturday.

Fishers residents Bruce Moore and Sally Moore will participate in the event, which is designed to give patrons the chance to see artwork in the setting where it’s created.

The married duo shares a 900-square-foot studio (B-345) at the Stutz.

They met when Sally was directing her own gallery on Massachusetts Avenue in Indianapolis, and Bruce inquired about whether she wanted to see his work.

Bruce uses water colors or water media and creates his works on a 100-percent polypropylene material called Yupo.

Sally is a trained jeweler who uses sterling and 14 ct. gold precious metals, as well as exotic stones, for her designs.

She said some of the hand-picked gems never before shown will go on display at the show,

Thursday – Woomblies Friday – Zanna Doo Saturday – Good Seed Three Ds’ Pub and Café – 13644 N. Meridian St., Carmel – www.threedspubandcafe.com

and Bruce will have two abstract series on display at the open house.

Another of Bruce’s works went on display at the Indianapolis Museum of Art on Sunday.

“The open house has become one of the city’s rites of spring,” said Tom Potter, a photographer and co-chair of the 2013 open house. “This year, there’s an even more diverse mix of studios and art to see than ever.”

Other Hamilton County artists displaying at the open house are Wendy Franklin and Laura LaForge, both of Carmel, Katie Clayton of Noblesville and Mallory Marty, also of Fishers. Artwork ranges from paintings, drawings and photography, to sculpture, jewelry and furniture. The event also offers a rare chance to see vintage cars on display in the historic Stutz car factory.

The event is from 5:30 to 10:30 p.m. Friday and 2 to 7 p.m. Saturday at 212 W. 10th St., Indianapolis. Advance tickets can be purchased for $10 at Old National Bank branches and the Stutz Business Office, or for $14 at Eventbrite or $15 at the gate. Children 12 and under are free. For more information, visit www.stutzartists.com or call 503-6420.

Treating skin pigment problems Commentary by Brooke Tetrault

S

Treating pigment-related skin conditions like sun spots can actually be one of the most dramatic improvements DERMATOLOGY in the overall tone and youthfulness of skin.

Skin cells called melanocytes produce pigment called melanin, which is the source of skin’s color and a key component of defense against UV exposure. This pigment production can also be the result of exposure to heat and hormonal shifts. When melanocytes no longer respond to the normal rules of growth and melanin production, perhaps from repeated UV damage, they can result in malignancy.

It is important to consult with a physician to rule out any suspicion for abnormal lesions, such as melanoma, before undergoing any cosmetic treatment. A yearly dermatologic skin check and proper sunscreen is always recommended. Always be careful if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

For benign, unwanted pigment concerns, one can be fairly aggressive with laser treatments.

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light), a flashlamp device, is probably the most popular procedure used for the treatment of pigment. It involves targeting and breaking down the melanin pigment in the

DISPATCHES Spinal health walk – Indiana Spine Group is hosting the We’ve Got Your Back Race & Health Fair, an inaugural 5K, 1-mile fun run/walk and health fair on Saturday. The race steps off at 9 a.m. at 13225 N. Meridian St., Carmel, and the run/walk follows. Event proceeds will support the Spinal Research Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving spinal health care through research, education and patient advocacy. The event will also celebrate the achievements of patients who have overcome debilitating neck or back pain to regain their lives, such as honorary event chair Capt. Rita Burris, public information officer with the Indianapolis Fire Dept.

skin. Patients experience initial darkening of the pigment, which is then naturally exfoliated – or helped along greatly with medical-grade topical skin care during the course of the subsequent days.

Medical-grade topical skin care can involve hydroquinone. Less effective treatments like soy-based and lower strength products overthe-counter are mostly recommended for maintenance at best. Hydroquinone has more than 30 years of use in skin care. It can also be misleadingly known as “bleaching” cream, but only inhibits the production of extra melanin.

It is a substance that directly inhibits the key enzyme responsible for the final step of melanin (pigment) production, unlike less effective overthe-counter products. In prescription strength, medical-grade quality, over a limited body surface area and under the care of a physician, it is safe.

There are so many ways to help treat unwanted skin pigment, and it is always best to seek the recommendation of your skin care physician for dramatic results.

Brooke Tetrault is director of operations at ClarityMD and can be reached at 571-8900 or info@ ClarityMD.com.

Crib bumper pads exchanged for sleep sacks – Each year, about 2,300 infants die from sudden infant death syndrome. To help families practice safe sleep habits, Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital at St.Vincent, St.Vincent Women’s Services and The Children’s Museum have joined forces to exchange crib bumper pads for a free sleep sack. From now through April 30, infant caregivers may bring crib bumper pads to the concierge desk at The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis, 3000 N. Meridian St., to trade for a free sleep sack, courtesy of St.Vincent. The bumper pads will be given to a local organization to recycle.

While researchers are not sure what causes SIDS, soft bedding is a known risk factor.

No laughing matter – It took almost 100 years for people to figure out that nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, could be used as an anesthetic. A dentist made the realization it could be used in medical practices in 1844, but a botched tooth-pulling led to his disgrace. The dentist, Horace Wells, committed suicide before he was recognized for figuring it out. – www.theweek.com

Understanding flood coverage Commentary by Jamie Ianigro

Question from Gary B. from Fishers: We have a basement and have never had any flooding problems, but one of our friends recently Insurance had their basement flood and it caused $16,000 in damage. Now I’m thinking about getting a flood policy. What do you think?

Response from Jamie Ianigro: The first thing you need to know about flood insurance is what the policy covers. A flood insurance policy will protect your property from flooding accompanying hurricanes, heavy rains and melting snows. A standard homeowner’s policy specifically excludes coverage for all of these things. Some insurance carriers will add flood coverage with an endorsement to your homeowner’s policy, but usually you will have to purchase a separate policy.

The other thing you need to know about flood insurance is what it doesn’t cover. Flood insurance doesn’t cover water that rises up through your plumbing. This type of loss is protected by an endorsement to your homeowner’s policy called sewer and drain backup. A loss from sewer and drain backup can be just as damaging as a flood loss.

Most of Hamilton County sits in a moderate-to-low risk area when it comes to flood risk (you can check your risk at www.floodsmart.gov) and qualifies for coverage at the preferred rate. Preferred rate policies are the lowest premiums available through the National Flood Insurance Program. This policy will

DISPATCH

protect your house and its contents starting as low as $129 per year. It takes 30 days after purchase for a flood policy to take effect, so don’t wait until the water starts rising.

Sewer and drain backup coverage is a simple endorsement that you may already have included on your homeowner’s policy now. Standard coverage usually starts with limits of $5,000. If you have a finished basement, $5,000 is probably not going to get you back to where you would like to be. We usually recommend upgrading that coverage to $10,000 to 25,000 to make sure you are adequately covered.

Higher limits are definitely available. The cost of this endorsement varies by carrier but is usually a very low percentage of the total cost of your policy.

The most important thing to know is when to cut and run. Your family’s safety is much more important than a house or anything you have in it. The steps you can take to prevent flood claims are pretty easy and you’re probably already doing them. First, make sure your sump pump is working and has an adequate battery-powered backup, in case it loses power. Next, make sure your gutters and downspouts are free and clear of debris and obstructions. Lastly, make sure your downspouts are getting water far enough away from the house that the water is not returning.

For the most dramatic look, make sure the height of the updo aligns with your chin.

One-Shoulder The one shoulder silhouette is a great alternative to strapless and it looks great with hair up or down. Pair it with a skinny belt and a simple bag and pumps.

Open Back Choose an open back style for an unexpected dose of glamour. Pair this style with a simple up-do.

Long Sleeves Long sleeves are a great way to balance out a short dress. This style looks great in a bold color.

Full Skirt The classic look of a full skirt is definitely a great go-to for prom. Keep your hair and accessories simple and let the dress speak for itself.

SPRING GATHERINGS Just like the flowers and the trees are blossoming this spring, so are the social events. The Palladium hosts top talent on a regular basis, new restaurants are opening all over the city, and festivals are being prepped for. May also brings the Iconic Indy 500 to town. With all of the events on the calendar, it is important to think ahead and plan your look for each outing. A sundress is almost always appropriate. Dress it up with some bright jewelry, or tone down your look with a pair of flats. Guys, khakis paired with your oxfords and a bright colored polo will make you the perfect date.

Five things not to fuss with Commentary by Holly Lindzy

There are things in nature that appear worse than they are, just as in life. And gardening is a haughty manipulation of nagardening ture where we only win part of the time. That being said, I thought I’d offer some comfort to help you begin this gardening season on a positive note. Buckle up – here are the top five things not to sweat this year, in no particular order.

• Lichen on the trees is probably my favorite no-sweat plant issue. It can look like mold on the branches and trunk, when actually it’s part algae/part fungus, and it’s a good indicator that the environment is clean. Score!

• Preventing crabgrass … it’s too late. Treat with herbicide or pull like the dickens and make a mental note to apply preemergent granules next March.

• Sealing the pruning cuts you’ve made to your tree. Trees will recover from this naturally, assuming the pruning is done properly, and the tree is healthy. Anything you apply to the “wound” is

DISPATCHES Containers clutch for gardening in tight spaces – If you want to grow some plants but don’t have the space for a traditional garden, just make sure the container you get for the plant is deep enough. Typically, vegetables need containers that are 14 to 18 inches deep, but vegetables that have root systems that run especially deep need a container with a minimum depth of 18 inches. – www.bhg.com

only going to impede healing and could potentially cause issues for you later. Skip it.

• Mulching, if you are tight on money or don’t have the time. Your garden isn’t going to turn on you if you skip a year.

Sure, it looks pretty and (I think) smells nice, but your soil can take a pass just once if it has to. Consider turning the existing over to refresh it, instead.

• Spraying for “all the bugs!” The ingredient you spray to control the real pest is the same that will wipe out the bees and butterflies. If it’s a must, use a systemic insecticide that’s taken up through the roots into the plant for feeder pests to ingest and suffer from, rather than knocking off the innocent bystanders, too.

I leave you with one last thought. Gardening is a hobby where you can get down and dirty with no shame. Take that and run with it. Happy gardening!

Be prepared – Flare-ups on the grill can char your food and trick you into thinking it’s done when the insides aren’t completely cooked. A squirt bottle full of water at the ready to keep those flare-ups in check is handy for controlling the grill. – www.eatingwell.com Key ingredients – Want to make a signature pizza at home with ingredients out of your own garden? Make sure you include rosemary, thyme and onions.

Patio planning – If you’re planning on building a new patio, keeping in mind how many people you plan to entertain is crucial. Mock up chairs and tables in the backyard so you have an idea of just how big your new patio needs to be. – www.bhg.com Warmth on the move – With summer nights approaching, sitting by a night-time fire is a viable pastime. Small fire bowls or other small fire pits give you the ability to move things around in the backyard. – www.bhg.com

Jack-and-Jill can stop squabbles Commentary by David Decker

As anyone who grew up with siblings can attest, having multiple children share a bathroom can create a difficult situation. indoors Most mornings it seems like everyone needs to use the bathroom at the exact same time, leading to squabbles, hassles and running late. If you are looking for a new solution, a Jack-and-Jill bathroom may be the perfect addition to your home.

“Jack-and-Jill” refers to a shared bathroom that is connected by two separate bedrooms.

Sitcom fans may remember that all six Brady Bunch kids shared a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. If it worked for them, it can certainly work for your family. Let’s take a look at a few ways to design a Jack-and-Jill bathroom that your kids will love.

Privacy is the main benefit of a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. The best Jack-and-Jill designs feature a layout that separates the various areas of the bathroom, like the shower and sink areas. That way, one child can be taking a shower while another brushes his teeth without having to compromise any privacy.

Jack-and-Jill bathrooms usually feature separated amenities that allow each child to have their own space in the bathroom. So, you may want to install two sinks, two mirrors, two linen closets and two cabinets if space allows. Doubling up helps cut down on crowding and makes it easier to share the space. Cabinet storage can

also help you keep things organized and running smoothly in a frequently used bathroom. Ample storage will cut down on clutter and ensure that each sibling knows where his or her toiletries are located.

Kids have a knack for making watery messes in the bathroom. So you’ll probably want to select bathroom flooring that’s equipped to handle spills. Ceramic or porcelain tiles are always a good bet accompanied by a tile baseboard for easy clean up.

Once you’ve decided on the layout and flooring, you can start planning the fun design aspects of the bathroom. For a kid’s bathroom, you’ll probably want to plan for versatility. Choose neutral, durable plumbing fixtures and cabinetry designs that can match any design scheme. From there, you can create a fun design backdrop that can be changed once the kids outgrow it.

David Decker is president of the Affordable Companies, which include Affordable Kitchens and Bathrooms and now Affordable Custom Flooring.

They are based in Carmel (575-9540, www.the-affordablecompanies.com).
