Boudia honored by Richardson, state legislators State Rep. Kathy Richardson (R-Noblesville) took time March 6 to honor David Boudia for his dedication and level of commitment to a sport he loves — diving. Boudia’s ultimate goal is to win a gold medal in diving at this summer’s Olympics in London.

“David is an incredibly talented diver. His hard work and dedication to something he loves represents the very best of the athletic spirit,” said Richardson. “I know he will represent the state of Indiana and the U.S. fantastically this summer.”

Boudia grew up in Noblesville and is now a senior at Purdue University. While at Purdue, he has become a six-time NCAA champion, a

2011 Big Ten Athlete of the Year for all sports, the USA Diving Athlete of the Year and Purdue Male Athlete of the Year. He is also a 16-time national champion. Boudia turned pro in 2011, and his focus is now on the 2012 Olympics in London.

“As David prepares for the Olympics, I wish him the best of luck,” said Richardson. “I know our whole community will rally around this Noblesville native as he goes for the gold!”

Boudia was honored by Richardson with an official resolution on the House floor. She commended him for rising to “a level of performance achieved by few athletes in any field.”

Road Construction

Transportation: Getting around!

Commentary by Greg O’Connor

As I contemplated what would be on citizens’ minds, The Beach Boys song “I Get Around” came to mind. Transportation is one of the major issues all communities face, and Noblesville is no exception.

As an update, the utility work for the realignment of River Road has been begun. We look forward to the weather improving and the full project being started. As always, with projects of this nature, there will be a period of inconvenience, but the improvements will be worth the wait! The target date for completion is summer.

The Roads Committee will be reviewing the final road resurfacing list for 2012. As the city’s budget has tightened, the average life of our existing roads will need to be extended given the current (and ongoing) level of funding available.

Our street department will be working diligently this year to assist in this endeavor.

At this year’s state of county address, Commissioner Steve Dillinger provided an overview of the county’s transportation projects. One of the most significant of those is an additional bridge over White River. This project may be the most important Noblesville has contemplated in a number of years. As the city and county continue to grow, the urgency to make this bridge a reality increases. We will be looking

at routing options for a road to the proposed bridge, which will need to incorporate future traffic flows from Ind. 37 and Ind. 32, and the potential of light rail in the community. Input from a professional study, and the public, will be essential in this process. Finally, the funding for this project will also hinge on public desire to pay for a project of this magnitude. More details on this will be forthcoming.

Speaking of state highways, a study is underway looking at the required changes at the intersection of I-69 and Ind. 37 and for the corridor. The results of this study should be available later this year. For those of us who use this corridor on a frequent basis, there is no question as to the necessity of improvements at the interchange and on Ind. 37. Once again, the issue of cost and timing will come into play.

Success in bringing new jobs and high-quality amenities to the community will require our continual investment in transportation infrastructure. Our challenges will be prioritization and identifying appropriate funding sources to make these projects a reality.

Greg O’Connor is president of the Noblesville Common Council. The council meets at 7 p.m. on the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month in City Hall. O’Connor can be contacted at goconnor@noblesville.in.us.

INDOT: U.S. 31 construction to end early editorial@youarecurrent.com INDOT has announced its intent to speed up U.S. 31 Hamilton County construction using contractor financing, a public-private partnership strategy enabled last year through one of Gov. Mitch Daniels’ legislative initiatives. Under this proposed plan, the project would open to traffic by the end of 2015, three years earlier than expected.

“We’ve found a way to bring this project forward by three years for the people who have waited for so long for U.S. 31. It will be bid in one bundle, and be built less expensively and years sooner than would have otherwise been the case,” said Daniels, who made the announcement at the 2012 Road School Conference at Purdue University.

In May 2011, Governor Daniels signed into law Senate Enrolled Act 473, which allows for expanded use of private capital for transportation improvements. Using this new law, INDOT intends to bundle remaining construction phases for U.S. 31 Hamilton County into one contract, taking advantage of current low construction and financing costs. INDOT would then repay the contractor over seven to 10 years using state and federal transportation resources.

Under this proposed plan, INDOT is exploring closing U.S. 31 to traffic for accelerated construction of an overpass at 126th Street and roundabout interchanges at Main and 136th streets.

Those interested in learning more about the schedule and maintenance of traffic changes to the project, as well as current and upcoming construction, can attend a public open house March 29 at Carmel High School’s main cafeteria, 520 E. Main St. The open house will run 5 to 8 p.m. with a presentation scheduled for 6 p.m. Interested in learning more, but can’t attend the open house?

Local retirement community sponsors writing competition for high school seniors editorial@youarecurrent.com

1-888-661-9494 | www.harechevy.com

The Stratford, a retirement community located in Carmel, announced it is giving away nearly $3,750 in cash prizes to be used for future college expenses by local high school seniors.

The Silver Pen Scholarship is open to high school seniors with plans to graduate in 2012. The scholarship is for seniors in Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, Westfield, Zionsville and surrounding areas.

First place will receive a plaque and $1,500; second place will receive a certificate and $1,000, third place will receive a certificate and $750 and fourth place will receive a certificate and $500. Winning participants will receive their prizes at a formal award reception at The Stratford in May. Entries will be judged by a group of retired business professionals, educators and community leaders. Judging is based on several criterion including creativity, fluidity of language and the ability to convey complex feelings in a concise and clear manner. This year’s topic asks students to consider the perspective of a person diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.

“There’s no doubt we can do a better job of educating our children and young adults about important topics related to aging in America,” said Sam Carrillo, The Stratford’s executive director. “Our nation is faced with a shortage of knowledge and resources for a rapidly aging population. The goal of The Silver Pen is to get young adults interested in the process of aging so we can foster a culture of mutual understanding and respect for the aged in our society.”

The deadline for entries is March 30. Students interested in participating in The Silver Pen contest should request an application by e-mail at SCarrillo@Stratford-Living.com.

Editorial ‘Gov’ makes major move on 31 project

Courts correction

It is our position the legislative debate over same-sex marriages will be ultimately handled by the U.S. Supreme Court. As such, we urge our Indiana legislature to focus its finite resources on more productive pursuits.

Certainly, many Hoosiers hold strong and sincere moral and religious convictions that such marriages delude traditional families or are simply abjectly wrong. Yet, our reading of Section 4 of our Constitution leads us to believe this may be a matter for the courts.

“No preference shall be given, by law, to any creed, religious society or mode of worship …” Moreover, the very first sentence reads: “We declare that all people are created equal; that they are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness …”

The decision of with whom to spend one’s life is deeply personal, and perhaps among these inalienable rights integral to the American understanding of liberty. Regardless, we know it is inevitable courts will weigh in on this matter. And, we look forward to a spirited discussion. In the meantime, we encourage our legislative body to focus on matters likely to yield higher impact on jobs, public safety and other more actionable work.

A piercing predicament Commentary by Terry Anker

From the earliest days, we’re taught not to judge a book by its cover. Mostly, it is very good advice. We cannot assume following the stereotype leads to good judgment. Yet, as a parent of an ever-maturing family, I find appearances do matter. Can we risk allowing our sons and daughters – clearly our mosttreasured responsibility – to get in a car with another teenager noticeably tattooed and pierced? Likewise, can we send them off to church camp after reading stories of predatory cultish practices, sometimes infecting the once safe harbor? Is it that the question, like all normative valuations, depends wholly on the route used to determine the answer? Or, is it simply a percentage of risk charged against one’s tolerance for a particular eventuality?

If given a perfect amount of information and time, most of us would work to arrive at a thoughtful solution. Simply because a teenage girl has elected to have a tattoo on her neck is

not enough to assume she is reckless in all areas of her life. However, absent the time to assess the risk adequately, can we, in good faith, disregard this very public statement? So, does how people look define them? Does the wearing of a soul patch make someone a jazz musician or simply follically-enhanced? Does the abundance wrought by augmentation make the woman sporting the amplitude needy or self-assured? Do the corpulent deserve our ire, our sympathy or neither?

Regardless, it does make a difference. As we consider the image we present to the world, shouldn’t we likewise consider the assumptions inure to such a posture? While it may be wrong to judge a book by its cover, it may be a good starting place.

As you may know, Gov. Mitch Daniels said last week the U.S. 31 project in Hamilton County will be completed three years ahead of schedule, or by 2015, with the use of contractor financing. This is brilliant! Daniels, exhibiting why we still believe he’s presidential material, said the cost-saving project will be bid in one bundle and be built less expensively. As a result, INDOT intends to bundle remaining construction phases for U.S. 31 in our county into one contract, taking advantage of low construction and financing costs. INDOT would then repay the contractor over seven to 10 years using state and federal transportation resources.

••• Have you ever noticed how, when faced with expected revenue shortfalls, our elected officials don’t slow spending, but instead, have no problems requiring taxpayers to wait for tax decreases? The latest example: Sen. Luke Kenley, R-Noblesville, expressing concern over a two-month shortfall in expected state revenue, now questions speeding a proposed 10-year phase-out of the state inheritance tax. Of course, House and Senate budget leaders had no problems agreeing to spend about $80 million more in the coming year on full-day kindergarten. Spending never waits, but taxpayers always do.

••• Now that we’re all preparing for our annual fleecing on April 17, we’re reminded of that legislative giant, Charlie Rangel. Remember him? You may recall ol’ Charlie (D-N.Y.) didn’t want to bother with those pesky taxes relating to rental income from his villa in the Dominican Republic. After the House Ethics Committee censored him in December 2010, he was required to pay those back taxes. We’ve not heard a word about this, and we’re wondering if Charlie paid those. Well, Charlie, have you?

Kids drinking too much juice

3162 E. State Rd. 32, Westfield | (317) 896 - 3833

Many young children – particularly those in low-income households –drink too much juice, according to a new survey. More than one-third of parents surveyed, and about half of parents with a yearly household income of less than $30,000, reported their 1- to 5-year-olds drink two or more cups of juice on a typical day. That's twice the amount recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics, which advices kids younger than age 6 to drink just one serving of juice per day. Too much juice puts kids at risk for health conditions, such as childhood obesity and early tooth decay.

Doctors not telling the whole story? – It’s pretty hard for patients to be part of the decision-making process if they don’t know all the options, but that may be exactly what’s happening, according a new study in the Journal of General Internal Medicine. The study surveyed 685 patients who had surgery for prostate cancer and 472 who had stents for coronary disease. Nine out of 10 patients who received a stent said their physicians didn’t tell them about alternatives.

Sixty-four percent of prostate-surgery patients, on the other hand, did discuss surgery alternatives.

Researchers aren't saying people made the wrong choice by having the surgery or stenting, but that patients should be given all their options. - Wall Street Journal 12 | March 13, 2012

Worst-case scenarios

Insurance Q&A by Andy Warren

Question from Kirsten W. of Westfield: The commercials I’ve seen asking people if they know if they’re covered for a certain situation has got me thinking. How do I prepare for the worst?

Response from Andy Warren: Those commercials have got a lot of people thinking. Insurance prices have stopped dropping and it’s a great time to lock in a solid rate with the best coverage available.

Adding an umbrella policy (also known as a catastrophe policy) is easily the best way to get on track with that goal. An umbrella policy is all about having the peace of mind in knowing your family and assets are protected.

The most common umbrella claim is an auto accident involving multiple injuries and very costly medical bills. The other common claim is an incident on your property that results in injury. Medical and legal costs can eat up the underlying limits of your homeowner, auto, boat or motorcycle policy pretty quickly. Your umbrella policy or your personal assets cover these costs when your normal policy limits are exhausted.

Your independent insurance agent will be able to help you settle on a level of coverage you are comfortable with. Most people should be pretty

comfortable with an umbrella limit of $1 million, but limits more than $10 million are available if you are looking for superior protection.

I don’t want to say umbrella claims are unpreventable, but they are the type of claims that happen no matter how prepared you are. Some things make a claim more likely, such as having a pool, living on a lake, having a young driver and owning a boat, snowmobile and basically anything fun. Instead of talking about prevention this week, I want to go over a claim scenario to illustrate how an umbrella policy will work.

Claim scenario: The insured’s son was driving his car on a short road trip with a friend, the claimant. The car drifted off the road and into a phone pole when the son fell asleep at the wheel. The passenger was hospitalized for more than a month with broken bones and internal injuries. The hospitalization was followed by some time in a wheelchair, but he was able to walk again after six months of physical therapy. This claim cost $1,200,000 with $300,000 coming from the auto limits and $900,000 coming from the umbrella limits.

Andy Warren is with Shepherd Insurance & Finanacial Services.

For more information, visit www. howaldheatingandair.com.

False deals at outlet malls - Not all outlet mall deals are equal and some aren't deals at all. There is a growing trend to stock outlet centers with branded goods that were made less expensively and exclusively for the outlets. "In some cases, the manufacturers do take shortcuts. They may replace leather with plastic or not have extra stitching," said Tod Marks, a senior project editor with Consumer Reports. For example, though they carry the Gap brand name, the T-shirts tend to have less stitching and a lighter fabric. Jeans might be plainer and could be missing a seam; sweaters may be shorter with cheaper buttons. - www. money.msn.com www.currentnoblesville.com

Whether a simple reorganization or a full-blown remodel, a child’s bedroom makeover needs to be proposed well before any work begins.

If the design team works together to organize a battle plan, chances are good the space will please both proprietor and dweller.

The top half of a kid’s bedroom is an opportunity for many lofty ideas – literally.

Paint is an important design element in most makeovers. It can be used to alter everything from furniture to picture frames. In the planning phase, remember to consider ceilings, baseboards and almost every surface in between as a blank canvas for a brush or roller. A painted surface can be anything from an elaborate mural to a useable chalkboard.

MEET SUYA MOWERS, ONE OF MORE THAN 140 CHARACTERS

Counter intelligence: Taking quartz for granite Remodleing by David Decker Granted, “granite countertops” are the magic words when it comes to a value-enhancing description of a modern-day kitchen.

But when considering the installation of stone countertops in a kitchen improvement project, it’s worth discussing the stone material decisionmaking process with “counter intelligence” – a countertop professional.

Granite isn’t the only game in town. Quartz routinely ranks a very close second to – and in some cases exceeds – granite in overall satisfaction ratings.

This is not to say granite is better than quartz or vice versa. This is to say countertops are a multifaceted decision involving a major expense, and it’s wise to consider price, differences, function and design before committing to either.

Price, surprisingly, is often the smallest difference in this equation. Pricing for good slab granite and almost any kind of quartz is comparable, but there are also high-end and low-end granites that make exact comparisons impossible. It’s best to consult a reputable professional, see samples, understand what level (quality) of stone you need and get pricing based on the specifics of the individual job.

Granite is a “God-made” material, while quartz is a man-formed surface of crushed quartz and resins. Granite is softer, more porous

and much more brittle than quartz. Granite’s random shading and patterns are part of its beauty, while quartz is engineered in both solid colors and selected patterns.

Functionally, granite absorbs moisture, stains and needs to be resealed periodically. Because of the man-made process, quartz does not stain and requires almost no maintenance. Either material requires professional installation.

Design, always, is in the eye of the beholder.

One person may love the predictability of quartz; another may be taken by the natural patterns and striations of granite. Hopefully these two people aren’t married.

Either surface provides a beautiful and functional countertop, but don’t take the final decision for granted. Check with the pros, and choose wisely.

Hardwood trend – We all love the look of hardwood flooring, but most contractors say it has no place in a moist bathroom. The next best thing may be faux hardwood porcelain tile. "The tile industry has gotten really creative at manufacturing tiles out of one material to look like another material," says Christine Jurs, owner of the Advance Design Studio in Gilberts, Ill. "A perfect example is porcelain tile made to look like real hardwood. It looks fabulous." Available in 2-, 3- and 4-inch planks, the tile is much easier to care for than real wood. And porcelain's natural resistance to moisture makes it an appropriate material for kitchen and bath applications. - www.hgtv.com 16 | March 13, 2012

You can expect a 129 percent return on your investment with a steel door, according to a “Cost vs. Value Report” from Remodeling magazine. Fiberglass models, which can cost three times as much, recoup only 65 percent of their cost. Buy a qualifying energy-efficient door and reap a tax credit of 30 percent of your cost. - www.kiplinger.com

The Skin You’re In

Snakeskin is making a comeback on the fashion scene this season! Snakeskin works on purses, belts, shoes, bags, and more. Snakeskin is best worn with solid colors, as it should only be an accent. To avoid a fashion faux paux, don’t try to wear python head to toe.

Remember to be playful, as this is a fun print and although it has a bohemian feel to it, it can also express glamour and style.

Spring into new season Commentary by Randy Sorrell

Spring officially starts next Tuesday.

I like that. It means spring break is just around the corner and longer days are becoming familiar. It means everything flowering will start percolating and cheery forsythia will start screaming amazing colors soon. My five ornamental dogwoods are swelling with anticipation of another glorious showing of pinks and whites. And tulips, daffodils and crocus are pushing through the earth, softening even the crustiest of attitudes.

Spring means fresh-skinned joggers and spandex bikers become the road warriors they hunger to be, and new mommies and daddies can introduce their babies to fresh air and warm sunshine. Dogs are overjoyed they can “do their business” in a relaxed fashion and walkers are everywhere. So are the smiles.

Spring also brings with it a few necessaries to get your landscape beds in shape for the year.

Here’s an immediate concern list: • How’s your mower, Weed Eater and blower?

In need of a tune-up or cleaning?

• Ornamental grasses and perennials need cut to the ground NOW. Cut back too late and you risk damaging hidden new growth.

• Resist the urge to prune spring and summer

flowering shrubs. You will likely prune off the reason you love them … their flowers. Wait a few weeks after blooming and then prune.

• Hard prune some woodies that are too … woody.

• Pre-emergent weed control needs applied now through mid-May for confident results. Miss this window and anticipate extra weeding.

• I’m a spring mulch guy and want the beds to look rich through the entire season. My preference is the color-enhanced black or dark brown, premium shredded hardwood mulch. Confirm it is void of pallets and other nasty fillers. Check out www.youtube. com/randysorrell for explanation.

• Walk your house perimeter and inspect gutters and downspouts to confirm they are clear and exiting far enough away from the house. Look for loose roof shingles while you are at it, and any siding damage from curious critters seeking shelter in your attic.

Enough talk about chores. Are you ready to enjoy this spring like never before? Me too!

Plant seeds in eggshells for transplants? – It's an old-time trick. In the days before your local nursery provided nice peat pots, an eggshell worked nicely. Here's advice from 1880: "Take eggshells cut in half, make two or three small holes in the bottom of each, fill with sifted soil, sink in a box of sand, sow seeds and cover with glass, of course keeping them in the right light. Water only the sand, for they will absorb enough through the holes. In transplanting, break off the shells, leaving the lump of earth intact without the roots being jarred or disturbed." Try this with some cabbage seeds now and you may have good starts for transplanting as soon as you can work the earth. - www.almanac.com 18 | March 13, 2012

Foiled by fare codes - The roundtrip airfare Kevin McDonald found on Delta Air Lines' Web site came to $386 – not bad. But when he checked Expedia.com, he found the same tickets for $62 less. Delta offers a Best Fare Guarantee that promises if you find a lower price on another site for the exact same Delta itinerary after purchasing your ticket on www.delta.com, "then we'd like to make it right." But Delta didn't make it right. Here's the short rejection it sent him: “Our records indicate your reservation is booked in ‘U’ class of service for the departure and ‘L’ class of service for the return. At the time of our research at www.expedia.com, we were able to locate a lower fare of $326.60 per passenger. However, the class of service was ‘T’; for the return flight. Therefore, we respectfully decline your request.” It turns out that by "exact" same itinerary, Delta means everything – including the fare codes – must match. -www.frommers.com

I couldn’t have been happier to get on the plane. Visions of sunny blue skies, sand, surf and fruity cocktails took over my mind. It seemed almost too good to be true. And it was.

That’s right, in the middle of perhaps the mildest winter I’ve ever experienced, Fort Lauderdale was having a cold, rainy spell.

The sun lingered behind the clouds, the rain threatened (but did retreat) and the wind whipped those Palm trees into a complete frenzy. You know what? It was a great vacation.

Sometimes it’s not about where you go, but rather, whom you’re with. This was my second foray into a girlfriend getaway, and it proved to be as fun as the first. I wasn’t sure it would happen.

You see, there are 10 of us, 10 women with 24 children trying to leave for a weekend? You know how hard that must be.

Luck wasn’t on our side. Husbands travel for work, pregnancies sideline us and life just gets in the way. So, for many, this year’s trip was off the radar. But four of us were determined; we forged ahead and made it happen. I’m so glad we did.

While the weather didn’t cooperate, it couldn’t stop us from having a good time. We walked, shopped, and talked. We shared stories

of family, life, and our hopes for the future.

Right there on a cold beach in Florida, my girlfriends and I revealed our most intimate thoughts. Conversations we’d never delve into at home, while children run between us, and life and responsibility beckon, happen naturally at the beach.

The big J: Judgment Relationships by Kristen Boice

Why do we all judge ourselves and others?

Do you feel like your own worst critic? Do you find yourself being critical and judgmental of those around you? It plays such a large role in our society and has a powerful impact on how we see ourselves. Being judgmental can keep us stuck in our stuff and closed off to others.

Everyone judges to one degree or another.

Typically what we judge in another is what we don’t like about ourselves. I love the saying, “Judgment doesn’t define who they are it defines who you are.”

Many people have a deep fear of being judged because of the pain and rejection that can come with it. For example, you may not speak up because of the fear of what people will think and the sense of not being good enough so you hide in order to not have to face the judgment. If we give it power, the feeling of being judged can create a sense of low self-worth and insignificance.

There are a few key areas to explore when it comes to judgment. It might be helpful to write down your answers to these questions or journal about it.

1. What is your first memory of experiencing judgment? Float back to the first time you remember experiencing judgment.

It might have been in school or at home.

How did you feel? What was said to you often becomes a tape that plays in your mind for years later and brings up feelings

of inadequacy or not being good enough.

Write down the tapes or thoughts you now have because of something someone said or did to you. Remember, we are not our past and we don’t have to give power to what someone said to us in the past.

2. Who and what do you judge? Do you judge yourself, your spouse, other parents, neighbors, friends, co-workers, family members, etc? Dig deep to try and figure out what it is about the other person or yourself that triggers you.

3. What purpose does judgment play in your life? Does it keep you from connecting with others? Do you use it to feel better about yourself and then end up feeling worse?

4. Do you want to change it? In order to make a change, first we need to take ownership and then make an action plan to address it. Work on stopping yourself when you go into judgment mode and try and figure out what is going on within you. Maybe you are feeling insecure and tend to judge more when you are not feeling good about yourself.

How would the world look if we judged less and loved more?

Research sheds light on autism - Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill studied 92 babies who have older siblings with autism. All underwent a type of MRI scan called diffusion tensor imaging and most were scanned again at the age of 12 and 24 months. They also were given standard behavioral assessments for autism when they were 24 months old. After the behavioral assessment, 28 children met the criteria for autism, 64 did not. When the researchers looked at brain scans, they found differences in the development of white matter fiber tract development – how the neurons in the brain talk to or connect to other parts of the brain – in 12 of 15 major brain connections or pathways. The 6-month brain scans of children who were later diagnosed with autism revealed these white matter pathways were growing faster or were denser compared to those who didn't develop autism. -www.cnn.com
