Stinky job earns stake award

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

Ray Thompson has served as Noblesville’s wastewater director for the past four years and has worked for Noblesville for the achievement past 34 years. On Jan. 14, the Noblesville Common Council honored him for his work with the annual Stake in the Ground Award.

“I’m humbled. I had no clue it was coming,” Thompson said.

Thompson is overseeing the long-term implementation plan for the city’s sewer collection system. In basic terms, Thompson said the city and state have an agreement for Noblesville to make improvements.

“We have to do ‘X’ amount of modifications in so many years,” he said, adding the city has 15 years to finish the project. “It started prior to my becoming director. We have until 2022 to complete it.”

Thompson said part of the project was installing a new sewer on Maple Street along with a new roadway.

“There is a total of five phases. We tackled the most expensive first,” he said.

The current project is installing 1,100 feet of 60-

inch sewer line. Thompson said the top of the sewer line will be a city trail from Maple to Division Streets right along the bank of White River. The trail will attach to Riverwalk and connect the sewer treatment plant to Forest Park.

“It’s almost a three-year project. It officially began in July,” he said.

Like they have with other wastewater projects, Thompson said the departments try to make improvements within the city with sidewalks, streets or trails.

“We’re going to go in and tear up an area, why not restore it or make it better than it was before?,” he said.

2013 Common Council President Roy Johnson described Thompson as an “unsung hero.”

“He’s out there working his tail off,” Johnson said.

“Nobody knows all the effort and time he puts into his job.”

Johnson said the award was designed to recognize – at the director level – city employees “who obviously go way above and beyond their jobs.”

“We had really good candidates this year,” he said, adding that each councilor makes a nomination and then all members vote on it.

In “Captain Phillips” he, along with screenwriter Billy Ray and star Tom Hanks, relate the true story of an American cargo ship captain who was kidnapped at sea by Somali pirates. But rather than making the bad guys faceless, soulless villains, he portrays them as real, thinking individuals who feel pressured to commit acts of piracy.

Lasting impact – Prior to the end of his 21-year career as Noblesville Parks director, Don Seal, right, was honored by President Mark Boice and the Noblesville Common Council on Jan. 15. Seal began his parks career in Anderson in January 1972. After 20-and-a-half years, he was recruited to come to Noblesville and transform the city’s amenities. Noblesville’s landscape and parks department were quite different when Seal started in August 1992. Since then he has affected every facet of Forest Park.

Incentive keeps business in city

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com A longtime local business is remaining in Noblesville after receiving a two-year tax phasein approval from the common economy council on Jan. 14.

Economic Development Director Judi Johnson said LeMasters Steel Erectors sought the tax phase-in for the increase in assessed valuation resulting from the construction of a 10,625-square-foot new facility on a 2-acre parcel with a capital investment of approximately $830,000. Johnson said the project was a competitive one as LeMasters looked at other locations.

“It’s a retention and expansion project,” she said.

The tax phase-in is for real property at 17540 Kraft Ct. in the Pleasant Street Business Park.

LeMasters is currently in the Stony Creek Business Park on a one-acre parcel with 1,200 square feet of office space. The company is landlocked and unable to grow at this current location.

“Pleasant Street Park is the only business park in Noblesville that allows outdoor storage and has available land for expansion,” Johnson said.

Johnson said the total capital investment is $1,050,000 – $830,000 for the capital investment and $220,000 for land. LeMasters will pay no property taxes the first year and $12,452 the second year. The estimated tax abatement savings

is $37,348 ($24,900 in the first year and $12,448 in the second).

President Jim Bigler said LeMasters’ corporate headquarters have been located in Elkhart for 40 years. The business, which builds multistory structural steel buildings, has been in Noblesville for 30 years. LeMasters employs 48 workers and projects hiring five more by 2017. Bigler said the average salary for the five new employees will be $35,000 to $45,000 with benefits.

The finished building will house a 3,000-square-foot office with the remainder to be used for shop space to repair construction equipment.

“We are out of office space, we need to move,” Bigler said. “We see the economy picking up and want to grow down here. We want it to be in Noblesville.”

As a result of large increases in enrollment at two elementary schools, the Noblesville School Board and district administration schools have appointed a rebalancing committee to look at adjusting enrollment districts to accommodate the growth at those schools.

“We need to bring down enrollment at Noble Crossing and Promise Road (elementary schools),” Noblesville Schools spokeswoman Sharon Trisler said.

Trisler said that after carefully considering enrollment and trends in the local housing market, the committee has developed a proposal for the rebalancing. The proposed plan includes moving the following neighborhoods: • Rivers Edge Apartments to North from Noble Crossing • The area bounded by Conner, Pleasant and 10th Streets and Ind. 37 from Stony Creek to North • Fox Glen and Arbor Grove from Promise Road to Stony Creek • Monarch Springs, Fishers Oakwood and other students east of Promise Road and north of Ind. 32 or east of Ind. 37 and north of 186th Street from Promise Road to White River “Stony Creek gains a significant number; White River and North will pick up a few,” Trisler said.

“Hazel Dell might have a small change.”

Trisler said the proposal will be presented at forums at all seven elementary schools during January and early February to allow for community feedback. It then will be presented to the school board at its Feb. 18 meeting. At that time, the board could either adopt the proposal or request additional changes.

Promise Road Elementary students work on the school’s Box City planning project in October.

Promise Road is currently over capacity with 759 students. (File photo)

Trisler said Promise Road has 759 students and Noble Crossing has 682. Each has capacity for 730 students. The last time the district rebalanced elementary schools not during redistricting was when Forest Hill closed in 2011.

Make-up days scheduled for June – Three of the four days of school students missed due to the winter storm on Jan. 7 through 10 will be rescheduled at the end of the school year. The Indiana Department of Education previously announced that each school district could apply for a waiver from the 180-day school year rule so that days missed on Jan. 6 and 7 would not have to be rescheduled. Because Noblesville Schools was not scheduled to be in session Jan. 6, the wavier applies only to Jan. 7. District officials said the week of June 2 is designated as flex days in the 2013-2014 calendar in case days are lost to inclement weather or other emergencies. With three days to be added as of Jan. 10, the school year now is scheduled to end on June 4. Noblesville Schools said it will keep parents informed of any changes if the DOE considers waiving additional days.

In their own words

Sharon McMahon, longtime Noblesville Chamber of Commerce president, announces retirement

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

When Sharon McMahon took over as Noblesville Chamber of Commerce president in 2001, the office was at 54 S. cover story Ninth St. – the site of the former G.C. Murphy fiveand-dime store. McMahon, 64, remembers the store and its huge candy counter from when she was a little girl.

“I used to beg for candy,” she said, adding that her favorites were the multicolored bonbons. “I walked in the door my first day (as president) and my office was only steps from the candy counter where I used to ogle the bonbons when I was 5 years old. It was a very warm and comforting feeling at the same time.”

Since then, McMahon has overseen the city’s chamber through peaks and valleys in the economy, helped increase the business landscape in Noblesville and moved the offices to 601 E. Conner St. in August 2006.

And now, she is leaving. On Jan. 13, McMahon announced her retirement effective Feb. 28.

“The chamber profession is amazing. There are few other professions which give one such a rich and diverse experience of meeting and working with diverse personalities. At the same time, it’s a profession that requires a great deal of oneself. A lot is expected and it really encompasses a great deal of your life and time,” she said.

While her job is “very rewarding and satisfying,” McMahon said her decision to retire allows her to pursue other interests.

“My decision was to focus on other projects and activities and say goodbye to a position that’s meant a lot to me over the years. I’ve gained the respect of the community and business community. I feel comfortable going on to other things,” she said.

McMahon began her chamber career as the Fishers president in 1994. Prior to that, she worked in nonprofit management for 30 years.

“I was familiar with being a director of a nonprofit,” she said. “At that time there were only 8,000 people in Fishers and 100 members of the chamber. It was an exciting opportunity.”

After seven years in Fishers, McMahon took over the Noblesville chamber in 2001.

“Noblesville is my town,” she said. “I personally have such an affinity to how important

“Sharon has been a dedicated leader in Noblesville. Her leadership at the helm of the Noblesville Chamber of Commerce for the past 13 years has contributed to the growth of the Noblesville business landscape and she was a devoted advocate to and for the chamber members.”

Judi Johnson, City of Noblesville economic development director

“Sharon has had a big impact on not only the Chamber of Commerce, but also the entire Noblesville community. I appreciate the partnership she has fostered with the city and wish her well in her retirement.”

Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear For the past 13 years, Sharon McMahon has been in the middle of all Noblesville Chamber of Commerce activities, like presenting plaques to Kevin Buchheit with Krieg DeVault LLP (left) or hosting special events such as the annual golf outing (right). (Submitted photos)

the business community is to the health of a community.”

When she began, McMahon said the city had just created its economic development department (most development was drawn through the Hamilton County Alliance) and the chamber was more involved in tourism.

“We’re in a very rapidly changing economic environment. When I started, people were still faxing. People were just starting to use e-mail on a regular basis,” she said. “We didn’t have development at Corporate Campus, Ind. 37 or 146th Street. Our boundaries have changed and grown.”

Constant change

Change has been constant in business and the chamber’s history. During her time, the organization has launched its successful “Lunch and Learn” series, grown its young professionals group and created the annual Taste of Business.

“Eighty businesses come together to meet each other and see what the other businesses do, make eye-to-eye connections and form business relationships,” McMahon said. “It’s also a place for the public in an hour-and-a-half to two hours to visit 80 businesses. It’s a win-win in so

many respects and it continues to grow.”

McMahon said she won’t mind not having early morning meetings – although she is a selfdescribed morning person – but will miss “the interaction with chamber members on a regular basis.” During her tenure, the chamber’s 75th anniversary gala in 2010 stands out as one of McMahon’s favorite memories.

“It was such a milestone,” she said. “I heard from so many chamber directors from across the country. It was something I will never forget.

The event and the turnout of people were amazing, as was knowing how much the community appreciated the chamber.”

Search committee next

McMahon said her position will be posted on the Indiana Chamber Executives Association Website and Chamber Board Chairman John Paris will name a search committee.

“The chamber’s board of directors and staff will continue to provide excellent leadership for our many chamber business members from Noblesville and throughout Hamilton County,” she said. “The Noblesville chamber has served our community since 1935 will continue to be the voice of business in Noblesville.”

“Obviously I’m sad she’s leaving, but I’m thrilled for her that she will have some well-deserved time for herself and her grandkids. I’ll miss her. She’s been a mentor and a friend. I’ve looked up to her over the years. She’s a part of the community.”

Mary Noble, Chamber of Commerce director of business development

“We know Sharon has dedicated herself and her time to the chamber for many years. Not only has she been the face of the chamber; she has been its heart and soul. Because of her dedication and many accomplishments, we regret her leaving.

Because we know her dedication to her family and the joy she derives from her many outside activities, we celebrate her opportunity to embark on this next leg of her journey and we thank Sharon for all she has done for us individually and corporately, and we wish her the best.”

FROM THE BACKSHOP Bowen’s team is to be commended The diligent work of the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office has solved, apparently, yet another crime - or five of them. On Jan. 14, deputies, acting on detectives’ work spanning the previous month, arrested and charged with burglary and theft Noblesville residents Amy A. Price and Aaron Harlow. When detained for an unrelated parole violation warrant, Price divulged the activities she and Harlow purportedly carried out at five homes. As of press time, formal charges had yet to be filed. Sheriff Mark Bowen’s charges are to be commended for their dogged pursuit of suspects in the incidents in White River and Noblesville townships. Attempts to recover the stolen items are in progress. Well done.

••• We’re heavily inclined to agree with Dan Drexler, the Indiana state chairman of the Libertarian Party, who characterized Gov. Mike Pence’s State of the State speech last week as “nothing surprising.” We can’t (or won’t) disagree with his assessment that the speech was light on details, and we were just as curious about the employment numbers Pence cited, because he failed to benchmark them against the rest of the nation. We give Pence high marks for his comments on school choice, because we believe it is a parent’s right to have a dominant voice in the education of his or her child. Overall, though, it was incredibly bland to us. We don’t know the governor, but we find there is little about which to be overly enthused with this administration. Of course, we were spoiled by the tenure of former Gov. Mitch Daniels (who should have run for president, but that’s an old argument now), which was marked by swiftness, fiscal prowess and overall decisiveness. It’s early, and there still is time to impress, not that the good governor is losing a wink of sleep over our take.

FROM THE EDITOR Real input

Beauty sleeping Commentary by Terry Anker A favored cliché among the live-life-to-thefullest set – I’ll sleep when I’m dead – has always amused me. Yet my view has likewise been long conflicted. Surely, the time required to restore our corporal selves could be used in more productive endeavors. Napoleon claims to have slept very little. Edison, da Vinci, Jefferson and even Tesla are the same. Did the extra hours add up to their extra edge? Perhaps, but is sleep only about physical recovery?

Sleep also feels good. It rewards a full day with an intentional end. It clears the mind and breaks through intellectual dead-ends even as it allows for vivid dreams and boundless imagination. Now that our boys are older, we have been blessed with the occasional lazy Saturday morning – the likes of which we haven’t really experienced since college. You know the type – waking up about the regular time to the sound of falling rain. After a quick glance at the alarm, with the momentary

flash that a deadline is being missed, we realize that the bell did not sound because it needn’t. This is one of those days without the farmer’s market, or a football game, or any of a litany of the sleepdepriving irritations of modern life. Nothing is on the calendar. The family is still asleep. The room is cool and the rain is rhythmic.

So is this a day for the productivity of Napoleon or the whimsy of Sleeping Beauty? If time is at a premium, then is a long and restful sleep an indulgent extravagance, or even a sin? Or, are we fooling ourselves to forgo the stolen moments?

Are 12 hours without sleep no more productive than eight hours of toil after a good night’s rest?

Sleep might not make me pretty, but it does make me happy.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “What anxiety and hope actually have in common is a sense of what is possible.

In anxiety we anticipate possible danger.

In hope we anticipate possible deliverance.”

Jürgen Moltmann

Sure, we all snicker a little when candidates explain that government is all about the people, but the most impactful form of government is truly at the municipality level. Private residents can join committees and, boards and be involved in local government to the extent they want. It happens in Noblesville quite a bit.

The common council will discuss the master comprehensive plan in the coming weeks and that document, which guides the future growth of Noblesville, was directed by the thoughts and input from residents.

In the neighboring community to the west, there is also an interesting situation between residents and government regarding A decade ago, a hostile situation with the Kroger development took place – which eventually went to court. Some residents are still fuming about what happened on the northeast corner of the property and others have embraced that development is coming whether they like it or not.

The unique aspect of the highly sought- after land is the approach city leaders and residents are taking. While all parties involved know that not everyone will be on board with a plan for the area, surrounding neighborhood residents are having a direct say in what will impact them – sometimes literally – in their backyard.

Jeannine Fortier, a neighboring resident, said the group faces a rare situation and feels highly encouraged that the city government is providing it with the opportunity and resources to create a plan.

“It’s very humbling. I had no idea so much had to go into it,” she said. “We have to fulfill our civic duty. It gives us great ownership of what may happen in our own neighborhood – a say- so. This really is our government.”

Mark Christoffersen, a neighboring HOA president, said he is hopeful it starts a new standard with future development.

If a similar situation should arise in Noblesville, I’d like to think our leaders would take a similar approach. And if residents don’t feel their voices are heard, they can speak louder every four years.

Actions speak louder than words Commentary by Danielle Wilson With all of the holidays and inclement weather over the past month, my husband Doo and I have spent a lot of time together humor in close quarters. Not that that is necessarily a bad thing, but the proximity does make me wonder how we’ve made it this far without offing each other. I say that with a bit of snark and a ton of love, but honestly, I think someone up there was drinking the day he/she decided to make us soul mates.

Take our “love languages,” for example. These are the ways people communicate and give and receive love to and from others. There are five total – gift giving, physical touch, quality time, words of affirmation and acts of service.

I am without question an Acts of Service girl.

You wanna demonstrate your love? Vacuum. I couldn’t care less if Doo brings me flowers or tells me I’m beautiful, and I definitely don’t want to spend all of my free time with him. (Mama needs her cave!) I also have major personal space issues, enough so that I am truly uncomfortable giving and receiving hugs, even from my own mom. And yet, whom did Fate decide to make my lifelong partner? A Physical Touch guy.

Doo knows I love him when I give him back rubs, hold his hand and, choke, hug him. While scrubbing toilets and folding laundry totally do it for me (“I love the smell of Clorox in the morning!”), Doo needs physical affection to feel loved.

To compound matters, I am hyper-organized, punctual and admittedly, a tad bit controlling, while Doo is spontaneous, carefree and a pinch A.D.D. So even when he is trying to express his love, he is often derailed. Like the other day when he decided the basement storage room just had to be cleaned out. Normally, this would have been music to my ears, except that two weeks later, the finished part of the basement is still filled with tubs of Barbies, books, old weightlifting equipment, Easter decorations and miscellaneous vases. I really do NOT feel like giving out hugs at this moment.

But opposites do attract, and I can’t imagine anyone else I’d rather be on this journey with. I guess the trick is to appreciate your partner for who he is, not for who you want him to be. Doo and I don’t always speak the same language, especially when trapped inside for days at a time with four children, and unfortunately, there’s no Rosetta Stone that’ll make it easier, but we’ll keep trying. So to whomever is up there having a laugh at our expense, I say, “Thank you. You’ve certainly made this marriage an interesting adventure!” Peace out.

Singer-songwriter Madeleine Peyroux will play Jan. 26 at the Palladium in Carmel in support of her new album “The Blue Room.” (submitted photo)

Madeleine Peyroux to bring silky vocals to Carmel

By Karen Kennedy • karenk@youarecurrent.com

The only thing that matters is the song.

So says singer-songwriter Madeleine Peyroux, who will grace the Pallatheatre dium’s stage on Jan. 26.

Often referred to as one of the finest interpretative singers of the 21st century, Peyroux is touring in support of her sixth album, “The Blue Room,” an homage to Ray Charles’ seminal 1962 album, “Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music.”

Several of the songs on “The Blue Room” are covers from Charles’ album, including “You Don’t Know Me,” “I Can’t Stop Loving You,” “Born to Lose” and “Bye Bye Love.”

It also includes a delicate version of “Gentle on My Mind,” made famous by Glenn Campbell.

Peyroux, a native of Athens, Ga., left school at the tender age of 15 to join a touring jazz and blues band. At the time, someone gave her some Billie Holiday records and simply told her to “learn the songs.” And so she did.

The influence of Holiday’s languid, laid-back style is evident in Peyroux’s style today; her silky, chocolate vocals laze through notes and lyrics in a way that is at once relaxing and enticing.

“The Blue Room” is a marked departure from Peyroux’s previous albums. The style is simple and more austere; just a touch of country twang infused with jazz, blues and R&B stylings. In previous recordings, her voice has been

airier, dwelling in a higher register with a hint of a French accent sneaking through in many songs. “The Blue Room” finds Peyroux exploring the very depths of her lower register and finding a grit that was not there before.

Peyroux lived abroad for eight years; she currently resides in New York City. Although she has toured throughout the U.S. and played in world-class concert halls, this is her first Indiana appearance and she is very excited about coming to the Palladium.

“I have been so fortunate to perform on some amazing stages both here in the U.S. and internationally,” Peyroux said. “I have not yet had the opportunity to play at the Palladium but I am looking forward to being there and experiencing such an extraordinary concert hall.”

Peyroux will accompany herself on guitar, with musicians from “The Blue Room” lending support such as Jon Herington, guitar; Jim Beard, keyboards; Barak Mori, bass; Darren Beckett, drums and Sylvia D’Avanzo, first violin and concertmistress. D’Avanzo has engaged local players to round out the string quartet.

Peyroux has toured internationally since her first album in 1996. Just weeks after her Palladium concert she will tour throughout New Zealand, Australia and China before returning to the U.S. to perform in a Paul Simon tribute at Carnegie Hall.

And then it’s back across the pond for shows throughout Italy, France, Switzerland and Germany.

If you happen to be a fan of Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Joni Mitchell, Ray Charles, Bonnie Raitt or Edith Piaf, you will undoubtedly enjoy the song stylings of Madeleine Peyroux in this rare Midwestern appearance.

It may be varicose veins

Commentary by Jeffery P. Schoonover

Restless Leg Syndrome affects as much as 15 percent of the general population and negatively impacts RLS their quality of life. Those with RLS experience irresistible urges to move their legs; a “creeping” feeling in their legs; persistent leg movement during sleep; or tingling, burning, aching or numbness in their legs. Symptoms of RLS are worse at night or during periods of relaxation, such as when a person is lying down during the day, and tend to improve with activity. The symptoms disrupt the sleep of not only RLS sufferers, but also their sleeping partners. The standard treatment for RLS is neurologic medication. Unfortunately, the available medications only relieve the symptoms; they do not cure the condition and must be taken long-term.

An often-overlooked cause of RLS is venous insufficiency, which several studies indicate that as many as 22 percent of those with RLS also have. Venous insufficiency, or varicose vein disease, means the blood vessels’ valves do not work properly and allow some blood to flow backward and pool in the legs, which can, but does not always, result in bulging veins and symptoms such

as pain, swelling, tiredness, redness or restlessness. Edema, or swelling, that occurs with venous disease often lessens at night, which is believed to somehow cause the “creeping” sensation described by patients with restless leg syndrome.

When restless legs occur with venous insufficiency, treating the varicose veins can significantly improve the RLS. A study published in the Journal of Phlebology reported that varicose vein treatment relieved RLS symptoms in 98 percent of patients with both RLS and venous disease, and 80 percent of those treated experienced long-term relief.

Anyone who suffers from the symptoms of RLS should be evaluated for venous insufficiency, typically with a diagnostic ultrasound assessment. If varicose vein disease is present, a course of endovenous laser treatment (EVLT), sometimes combined with sclerotherapy, offers the best opportunity for improving the symptoms of RLS and possibly eliminating the need for medication.

Jeffery P. Schoonover, M.D., FAAFP, RVT, RPVI, practices with the Indiana Vein Specialists, 11876 Olio Rd., Suite 700, Fishers. He can be reached at 348-3023.

Drivers sought for patient shuttle editorial@youarecurrent.com Indiana University Health North Hospital is seeking volunteer drivers for its patient shuttle that will begin operating in April. The shuttle, a covered volunteering eight-seat golf cart, will be used to transport hospital and Medical Office Building patients from the parking lot to the building entrances. Volunteers are needed to drive the shuttle Mondays through Fridays for three-hour shifts.

The patient shuttle program is the result of the first internal fundraising effort by the Office of Philanthropy, which was launched at IU Health North Hospital in July. IU Health North physicians and associates raised the funds internally to purchase the golf cart to provide the new patient transportation service. The selection of the Office of Philanthropy’s first initiative was determined through feedback received from the hospital’s patient family advisory council.

“We are extremely excited to implement the patient shuttle service as our first philanthropy funded program,” stated Tracy Miller, director of the Office of Philanthropy for IU Health North, Saxony and Tipton Hospitals. “Philanthropy supports our hospital’s mission of improving the health and wellness of our patients, families and community. We believe this shuttle program will advance that mission for all visitors.”

Individuals interested in volunteering to drive the patient shuttle must be at least 25 years old and have a valid Indiana driver’s license. In addition to driving the shuttle, other hospital volunteer opportunities are available. To learn more or to begin the volunteer application process, contact volunteer coordinator Ann Sawyer at 688-2927 or asawyer@ iuhealth.org.

Windshields vs. rearview mirrors Commentary by Adam Cmejla

LEARN TO LOVE YOUR HOME AGAIN. Covering the latest kitchen and bathroom design, tips, and trends, our educational seminars will show you how to rekindle the warmth and beauty of your home..

No obligation. Totally free.

Think back a year ago, when politicians in Washington were in the grip of one of their nowfamiliar “fiscal cliff” standoffs. planning As has become customary, the theater of brinksmanship kept everyone guessing until a last-minute resolution was reached.

“The Economist” magazine’s tone about 2013’s prospects was skeptical.

“Although investors are not as complacent as they were heading into 2000 or 2007, say, it is still hard to believe this will be a bumper year for returns,” said Buttonwood’s Jan. 5, 2013 column.

It’s easy to see from this example that many investors might have taken fright at the developments around the turn of the year and sought to trim their exposures to risky assets because of what media pundits were saying.

That would have been a shame because, as of early December 2013, many global equity markets were notching record-breaking years. As the year ended, plenty of gloomy stories still filled the newspapers — including some about ongoing speculation on what happens when the U.S. Federal Reserve begins tapering its monetary stimulus program.

This isn’t to say these stories are necessar-

ily incorrect. Most of them accurately reflect the sentiment prevailing at the time they were written and the uncertainty about the future.

But you can do little about that as an individual investor.

Investing is about what happens next. We don’t know what happens next, which is why we diversify.

Anyone who says he can tell you what is going to happen next is lying to you.

Making drastic allocation changes to a portfolio after the fact is akin to slamming the stable door after the horse has left. Bottom line: Are you looking through the windshield of opportunity or the rearview mirror of past performance?

And think about this: If any of the gurus who regularly appear on financial TV or in the newspaper really had a crystal-clear view of the future, why would he bother sharing it with the world?

It makes more sense to focus on what’s within your own control.

No more cash for stolen gold - Precious metal dealers, commonly referred to as “cash for gold” dealers, are now required to register annually with both the Indiana Secretary of State’s office and local law enforcement. “The new reporting requirements will help local law enforcement track stolen jewelry sold at cash for gold stores,” said Secretary Lawson. “Requiring these merchants to report the jewelry they acquire gives local law enforcement a new tool to find stolen jewelry before it is melted down and gone forever.”

Feds shut down medic-alert scam - Regulators have shut down a multimillion-dollar scam that they said duped seniors into turning over their credit card information in exchange for purportedly free medical-alert devices. The business blasted seniors across the U.S. and Canada with robocalls claiming that they were eligible to receive a free alert system purchased by a friend or relative. Once people agreed to receive the device, they were transferred to an operator who took their billing information and immediately began charging them for the service. Government officials said Monday that they received more than 66,000 complaints about the scam, which deliberately targeted the elderly.

The scam was not connected with any manufacturers of medical alert devices.

The makers of Life Alert had sued the business for using its “Help, I’ve fallen and I can’t get up” phrase on the robocalls. Federal Trade Commission officials said the business collected more than $13 million in commissions for selling the devices over two years, though it’s unclear how much money consumers actually lost. Many victims never received the equipment. SOURCE: MSN Money

Income-seeking investors don’t have to settle for yields - If you need to generate income, it’s entirely possible to get the best of both worlds: companies that pay steady dividends and deliver growth to boot. Here are three stocks that do just that: 1) CA Technologies is involved in a rapidly growing and necessary part of IT called data center infrastructure management. 2) CTC Media is a small-cap media company that has the backing of the Russian government due in part to its owner, Yury Kovalchuk’s, longtime friendship with President Vladimir Putin. 3) Tompkins Financial has shown profits, revenue and cash dividends for 59, 56 and 132 years, respectively, consecutively. The company has increased dividends for 24 straight years. TMP even skated through the financial crisis in 2008 and broke profit records, so no worries here when it comes to lending practices. SOURCE: MSN Money Healthcare plans attracting more older, less healthy people - People signing up for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act’s federal and state marketplaces tend to be older and potentially less healthy, officials said Monday, a demographic mix that could cause premiums to rise in the future if the pattern persists. But officials expressed optimism that more young people will sign up in the months ahead. They said demand for insurance through the marketplaces was increasing sharply across all age groups and they said youth outreach will become more aggressive in the coming months.

Master bath adds large shower and washer/dryer

Commentary by Larry Greene

Existing master bath: Located in the Wood Park neighborhood on the west side of Carmel, the home’s original blueprint for 1990s master bathroom improvement was dated and included a large soaking tub and small shower. “The room was just not functional for us,” stated the homeowner. “We had this huge tub we never used, and a washer and dryer located in the garage on the other side of the house. We decided to get rid of what we didn’t use and replace it with what we actually needed.”

Design ideas: The homeowners looked to modern Scandinavian design for inspiration. “We wanted the clean, modern lines of that design, but good-quality materials and craftsmanship.

We picked the sinks first, and they led the color scheme. Our designer helped us find the gray tile for the floor that tied into the sinks.”

Washer and dryer added: The large soaking tub was replaced with a washer and dryer to give the homeowners the functionality they needed. The new shower footprint was also enlarged.

Master bath details: To capture the modern feel, a semi-floating vanity was installed with Corian “Rain Cloud” countertops. Glass tile was placed inside the adjacent inset shelving. The modern styling was captured in the fixtures and

before & after

Final Results: In the end, the functionality of the new space won the homeowners’ hearts. “Our favorite part is having the washer and dryer nearby.

The rain showerhead is also a favorite.” Incorporating aging-in-place design with grab bars, as well as luxurious elements such as a heated towel rack and a fan with a timer, completed the project for the homeowners.

towel bars as well, which came in a brushed nickel to compliment the soft grays in the space.

A focal point in the shower was a must for the homeowners. “We had seen the onyx look in a shower and knew we wanted something like it in ours. True onyx was cost-prohibitive, but our designer found tile with the look of real onyx.”
