Complex approved despite objections Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

While several neighbors voiced their concerns about a proposed $55-million, 611 unit apartment complex on the construction city’s southwest side, the project was approved 4-2 by the Noblesville City Council on July 9. Council members Mark Boice and Brian Ayer cast the opposing votes.

“I didn’t feel it was something the city needed at this time,” Ayer said, mentioning the number of other apartment complexes the council has recently approved. “It’s not a positive quality of life project today.”

Boice questioned how the new proposal worked with the city’s master plan with its increase and the impact it would make. The development originally called for 520 units when approved in 2003. In 2007, Maefield rezoned 8.39 areas and was asking the council to reverse that decision. The new proposal requested an increase in the number of units from the 426 currently allowed to 611.

“I think that’s a big jump. I don’t think I’ve heard anything that justifies the increases in that,” Noblesville resident Greg Dunkin told the council.

Tentatively named Noble West Apartments, the project would provide a $1.1-million tax increase for the city and $2.6 million in development fees like park and street impact and sewer. The 37-acre complex will be across Edenshall Lane from the Hazel Dell Crossing retail center. Steven D. Hardin, the attorney representing Hazel Dell LLC, described Noble West as unique “high-end” apartments aimed at young professionals and not families. He said the average rent would be between $900 and $1,850 per month.

“This is not a family-oriented project. There are no three- or four-bedroom units,” Hardin said, adding the complex will have numerous resort-like amenities such as poolside cabanas, fire pits, sand volleyball courts and putting greens.

Several nearby homeowners spoke out against the project at the council meeting raising concerns about increased traffic, student enrollment at Noble Crossing Elementary School, decreased property

values and emergency management.

“Six hundred and eleven units is the largest complex in the city of Noblesville with the narrowest demographic you can find. I fear the demand will be lackluster,” East Haven At Noble West resident Ryan Fite said. “How proud is the city going to be when Maefield walks away like they’ve been known to do in the past?”

“We’re disappointed more members of the council didn’t see our concerns and look at the growth of the project or the need to grow beyond the master plan,” Steve Cook, a fellow East Haven subdivision resident, said. “Noblesville is still a great community and will continue to be.”

Council member Rick Taylor said the concerns of neighbors were not completely merited. A traffic study indicated the current infrastructure would accommodate the apartments and police and fire chiefs said the new complex would not impact public safety.

“Personally, I think this is a great project for Noblesville,” Taylor said.

Maefield officials said construction is expected to begin next spring and will be done in three phases, each with about 200 apartments. The next phase could begin in one and a half to two years and the entire project could be complete within three years if demand meets expectations.

After years of failed proposals, the undeveloped southeast corner of Ind. 37 and Ind. 32 may finally have concrete planning plans for improvement.

The Noblesville Technical Advisory Committee will consider construction plans for an automobile dealership and commercial subdivision to be called Terry Lee Crossing at its July 18 meeting. Assistant Planning Director Andy Wert said the 60.3-acre area will be home to a Terry Lee Hyundai dealership and commercial area with seven other lots for retail.

“They’re hoping to break ground as soon as next month,” he said.

The Hyundai dealership, which will be 8.071 acres, will be on the corner of Ind. 37 and 32. The main entrance to the development will be aligned with Foundation Drive off Ind. 32. Wert said plans are still in the works, but he believes there will not be a stoplight at that entrance or on Cherry

Street, which will be extended eastward. There may be a right-in, right-out entrance directly off Ind. 37.

Wert said he knows of no businesses connected to the seven lots of retail space yet.

“Once the infrastructure gets in place there will be a lot of interest in it because of their location,” he said.

That area has been associated with Target in previous years, but plans were never finalized with company.

“I think it’s (the development) going to happen.

The city and current developer Terry Lee have learned from the mistakes that happened in the past,” Wert said.

Terry Lee Honda opened its Avon location in 2009. The dealership offers new Honda cars, along with used cars, trucks and SUVs. If approved, Terry Lee Hyundai will be the second dealership being constructed on Ind. 37 in Hamilton County. Honda of Fishers, formerly Honda West, is opening a location on Britton Park Road.

Noblesville native takes command news@currentnoblesville.com

A Noblesville native is the latest commander of the U.S. Army Cadet Command’s 1st Brigade.

Col. David L. Wood, achievement a 1985 graduate of Noblesville High School, assumed command during a ceremony on June 6 at Olive Theater in Fort Knox, Ky. Commissioned as an Infantry officer through the Army Reserve Officers’ Training Corps program at IUPUI in 1989, Wood’s career includes increasingly responsible command and staff positions at Fort Campbell, Ky.; Fort Hood, Texas; Fort Carson, Colo.; and Fort Jackson, S.C. He has also deployed to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba; South Korea; and Iraq. Wood replaces Col. Michael Blahovec.

“The incredible history of this great institution called the Army, and the daily sacrifices of the men and women who are currently serving and have served is what makes taking command of this brigade such an honor,” Wood said.

Wood, who also will oversee operation of the Leader’s Training Course, said he is excited to have the responsibility to select, educate and train the Army’s future officers.

“We are essentially writing the future history

of the Army,” Wood said. “That is a huge responsibility I will not take lightly.”

Cadet Command’s 1st Brigade consists of the nation’s six senior military colleges and five of the military junior colleges. The brigade also conducts the Leader’s Training Course each summer at Fort Knox, where students from colleges and universities across the country take part in a four-week Army ROTC lateral entry training program.

Scouts heading to jamboree

By Joshua Baker • Boy Scout Troop 101

On July 14, more than 30,000 Boy Scouts will be attending the BSA National Jamboree at the Betchel Family Scout diversions Reserve in West Virginia.

During the 10-day camp, there will be a variety of activities including whitewater rafting, shooting sports, SCUBA diving, mountain biking, climbing, archery and much more.

For the Jamboree, the scouts attending have been put into troops of 36 youth and four adults.

The troops have been meeting since last September to plan and prepare for the event.

Once we arrive at the jamboree, we will have to build our camp in the allotted space by setting up tents, dining flies and cooking areas. Each morning, we have to get up and cook our break-

fast before heading out to do activities. During the day, we get to complete elective activities.

After waiting in line, the scout gets to spend a few hours learning about the activity and participating in it. Each scout also has chosen a curriculum activity, or an extended version of one of the activities. For instance, the canopy tour is a curriculum activity that lets the scouts learn the basics of zip lining, such as the safety aspects, and then fly across the trees almost 30,000 feet of zip lines.

We will take a trek to the summit garden, and spend the day there, check out the latest technology at technology quest, and leave the reservation, to spend the day doing service to a nearby town.

After a long day of adventuring, we return to camp to cook dinner, cleanup and rest before rising early for our next day of program.

New state laws are in effect

Commentary by Kathy Richardson

There were nearly 300 bills enacted last session, most of which went into effect July 1. All of these laws will in legislation some way, shape or form have a positive impact on Indiana and Hoosiers. Here is a listing of a variety of laws that are now in place to strengthen Indiana moving forward: HEA 1004 – Establishes the Early Education Evaluation Program, which requires the Division of Family Resources to work in conjunction with the Dept. of Education to gather data concerning school readiness of low-income children who receive early education services. In the state’s budget, $2 million per year has been allocated for an early education matching grant program for low-income families.

HEA 1099 – Expands opportunities and helps widen the abilities of physician assistants to practice medicine. This legislation makes Indiana a better place for physician assistants to practice, supporting high-wage, highly skilled jobs and increasing Hoosiers’ access to health care options.

HEA 1151 – Creates the Blue Alert program to notify the public when a law enforcement officer is killed, seriously injured or missing in the line of duty.

HEA 1170 – Expands the Training 2000 Program, which will now provide incentives and assistance to new or expanding businesses for the

training or retraining of incumbent employees, in addition to curbing the costs for Hoosier businesses to retrain and upgrade employee skills required to support existing capital investment.

HEA 1494 – Requires the employees and volunteers of certain child care providers to undergo national criminal history background checks. Parents should have the assurance and peace of mind that their children are in a safe environment with qualified caretakers.

SEA 177 – Provides that qualified veterans are eligible for the resident tuition rate for undergraduate courses upon enrolling in a state educational institution no later than 12 months after discharge or separation from the United States armed forces or Indiana National Guard.

This new law will help attract veterans to work and go to school in Indiana. This is a population that often has difficulty finding work when they return from service, and the General Assembly wanted to support them and recognize their service to our country.

This is just a quick snapshot of some of the bills that have gone into effect. I encourage everyone to visit www.in.gov/legislative for more information on these new laws.

Cause of fire under investigation

Public safety

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

Safe and sound – Officers from Noblesville Police Dept. take numerous calls for service each year, many involving animals. On July 7, officers David Lindenschmidt, from left, and Todd Borders, along with a Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office Animal Control Officer, helped rescue a kitten from a storm drain. The kitten was not harmed and was taken to the Humane Society of Hamilton County for some food and water.

Firework causes fire – An errant personal firework shot is being blamed for causing a fire that caused $5,000 in damages to 18894 Monarch Springs Dr. The Noblesville Fire Dept. said the homeowners, Matthew and Ashlin Hadden, were out of town in Tennessee at the time of the incident – roughly 10:50 p.m. July 4. Nearby neighbors told officials that the homeowners across the street were carelessly shooting off fireworks which tipped over, shooting what was described as “Fire Balls” through the window. Those neighbors were later identified as Resham Singh, 39, and Tejpal Singh, 36, both of Noblesville. One neighbor was treated and released at the scene for minor cuts to his hands that occurred while trying to break a window out. Officials said a sofa that had been on fire but was extinguished by neighbors before their arrival.

Noblesville Fire Dept. investigators are working to determine what caused a residential fire at 208 Ashford Ct. in the North Harbour subdivision on July 10. public safety NFD Division Chief Rick Russell said the fire originated in the garage of the home in the area of a work bench where investigators said they found an ash tray, power strip and numerous electrical appliances.

“The fire investigators are in the process of conducting further interviews, as well as testing their hypotheses regarding an electrical appliance fire versus discarded smoking material,” Russell said, adding that the fire is not suspicious.

Firefighters arrived at the home at 12:11 p.m. and noticed smoke and flames coming from the attached garage, as well as the two vehicles that were parked in the driveway. Russell said fire personnel made a quick search of the area and found no one around. The homeowners, Michael and Michele Spaulding who were located behind their home in the fairway of the golf course, told officials they discovered the fire in their garage and had to escape out the back of their home to safety.

Fire crews had the fire under control at 1:06 p.m. Despite the downpour Noblesville received in the early afternoon, Russell said the weather did not assist or hinder firefighting efforts.

“It was not raining at the time of the incident,” he said. “The majority of the fire was extinguished prior to the down pour of rain.”

No one was injured in the fire, which Russell said caused approximately $250,000 in damages.

“There is smoke damage throughout the home,” he said. “The majority of damage caused by even a very small fire is a result of

4-H FAIR

Current in Noblesville

www.currentnoblesville.com

Longtime residents share stories of 4-H program from its beginnings

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Hamilton County Supt. of Schools John F. Haines organized the earliest Indiana boys corn club meeting of record cover story on April 9, 1904. Ninetythree boys enrolled in that first corn club and each was given 1,200 kernels of corn for his project. At the end of the year members exhibited their corn in the courthouse walkways.

From this beginning of one project, the interest and growth of 4-H has increased to more than almost 2,000 youth in Hamilton County and more than 68 projects.

Paul Woodward’s family moved to Hamilton County in 1932 when he was 7. Woodward, now 87 and living in Noblesville, and his older brother joined the Fall Creek Township 4-H Club led by Newell Hurlock and his wife in 1935.

During his first county fair, Woodward remembers the hogs were in tents on Logan Street in downtown Noblesville and cattle were sheltered in a livery stable, where the Hamilton County Judicial Center now is located. The women’s clothing exhibits were displayed in the Armory.

“There were no livestock sales and most of the projects were directed toward rural families.” he said. “In October, corn and crops were judged in the hallways of the courthouse.”

The first Hamilton County 4-H fair was held three years later in 1938 at Noblesville’s Forest Park.

“It was an idea that grew statewide and countywide to get more people participating,” Woodward said. “A bigger group of farmers got involved and really made a fair out of it.”

Woodward still remembers that first 4-H fair and said times were different during the “horse and buggy” days.

“The horse shows were pulling horses. There were lots of cattle and hogs but not very many sheep or goats at that time. Crops were shown in the fall and the girl’s projects were mainly cooking and clothing,” he said.

The county fair was held at Forest Park in 1936 and 1937. In the following years it moved around the county and was held in Sheridan, Walnut Grove, Carmel, Arcadia, Noblesville and Westfield. The 4-H fair moved out to the present 4-H fairgrounds on Pleasant Street in Noblesville in 1948. Monte Jessup donated 2.5 acres for the fairgrounds. At that time it was an airport. The Hamilton County 4-H Council purchased 12 acres more land from Jessup.

The 4-H Council raised more than $40,000

through donations, which they used to construct the current O.V. Winks building and the first Swine Barn, now used for small animals and horticulture exhibits.

“The tax laws in the 1940s prohibited using tax money to build 4-H buildings and grounds.

Those laws were changed in the early 1950s,” Woodward said. “The other buildings were added when the 4-H Council was able to raise donated money to pay for these buildings.”

Helen Musselman, 98, has been involved with the Hamilton County 4-H program for 77 years.

She’s attended every fair except for the past five after she broke her hip.

“I love the enthusiasm kids have. They want to do things right. They help each other. To me, 4-H is the most wonderful organization there is,” she said.

“I try to encourage everybody to belong to 4-H. They didn’t run the streets or get into mischief. They learned by doing and had to complete projects.”

Musselman started as an adult volunteer in 1936, when she moved back to Noblesville, where she was born, after living and going to school in Detroit.

“My sister belonged to 4-H so I took her there.

We were a group of country women that became a homemaker’s extension club, and we all were really active until we got old,” Musselman said.

“We had a lot of fun in a lifetime. It’s been a lot of work, but its fun. I wish I was still active. If I get my legs to work, I still will.”

Musselman said the girls clubs specialized in home economics topics, but were not strictly sewing and cooking or baking. She said other skills included making soap, redoing furniture, canning food at churches, etching glass and cross stitch.

“It made better homemakers, a way of life for country kids,” she said. “It kept the family together. They do things together, and they show cattle together. They work together and help other children with their projects.”

Through her years of service, Musselman said the biggest difference has been people.

“Back then, church and club was the only thing we had. Today, kids have all kinds of sports and activities and women are busy or working,” she said.

Musselman has been married to her husband, Wayne, for 75 years. Together, they have six children, 22 grandchildren, 36 great-grandchildren and seven great-great-grandchildren. The 4-H tradition continues in the family and Musselman’s great-great-granddaughter, Hailey Musselman, 8, will show beef cattle at this year’s fair.

“I’ll probably have a heart attack when she gets out there leading that great big steer,” Musselman said.

Former 10-year member John Peterson said the county fair has become a little more commercialized since his last year in 1975.

“It used to be there was a Junior Leader booth and ExtenPeterson sion Homemaker’s kitchen to get your food and drink,” he said. “There was a screened in area with picnic tables.”

With two daughters currently in 4-H, Peterson said the number of livestock projects has also decreased since his time.

“The main reason is the expense of it,” he said.

“We’re a more urban county.”

In 1938, the Hamilton County Fair and 4-H Club Exhibit was held in tents at Forest Park and the girls’ projects were displayed at the Noblesville Armory. According to 1938 Extension Annual Reports 4,000 people were in attendance for the three-day event.

4-H Enrollment for 1938 was 160 boys and 303 girls • 19 girl clubs with nine volunteer leaders, two vocational teachers and 26 junior leaders • 11 boy clubs with six volunteer leaders Projects in 1938 • Entomology – Seven boys • Corn club – 29 boys • Potatoes club – Seven boys • Garden club – 24 boys, 10 garden exhibits • Tomatoes club – Four boys • Pig club – 40 boys and six girls, 80 pigs • Beef calf – 12 boys and one girl, 18 beef steers were shown • Colt club – 13 boys • Lamb club – Nine boys • Dairy club – 25 boys and three girls enrolled, 33 dairy calves • Poultry – 15 boys and three girls, 11 pens of poultry • Clothing – 182 girls • Baking – 103 girls and two boys, and canning had 43 girls.

Bring a healthy appetite

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

What would a county fair be without food? There are a lot of options available at the Hamilton County 4-H Fair – fair food some good, some not so healthy, and some you can only get once a year.

Here are a few ways you can fuel up at the fair: Extension Homemakers’ Specials Those that need a break from the heat or spend all their time at the fair and need a home cooked meal should check out the Extension Homemakers’ Kitchen inside the Exhibition Center, southwest of Hall B. Breakfast is available 8 to 10:30 a.m. with specials available 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday to Sunday and 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday. This year’s meal schedule includes: Thursday – spaghetti and breadsticks; Friday – chicken & noodles; Saturday – meatloaf; Sunday – Swiss Steak; and Monday – ham & beans.

Producers’ Barbecue Outside in the commons area (next to the Small Animal Barn) is the individual species and joint producers’ food.

The joint producers barbecue is available 5 to 9 p.m. Thursday to Monday. Individual species (food products that come from particular animals), which vary each day of the fair, are available from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Days include: dairy, Thursday; rabbit and poultry, Friday; pork, Saturday; sheep, Sunday; and beef, Monday.

Food Tents More than 15 food booths will be located right outside the Hamilton County 4-H Exhibition Center and in the 4-H Commons. Vendors include county 4-H clubs and local churches, organizations and businesses. Each tent will offer something different – milkshakes, candy, fruit slushies, corn on the cob, chicken fingers, elephant ears, gyros, walking tacos, etc. While every vendor can sell water, soda pop can be purchased in the Junior Leader Soda Shop next to the entrance of the Small Animal Barn.

Hamilton County 4-H Clubs – There are 40 4-H clubs in Hamilton County including three new ones: Fishers Showstoppers led

IBC to host blood drive at fair – Fairgoers can give blood during their visit to the Hamilton County 4-H Fair on July 19. The Indiana Blood Center’s Mobile Unit will be open from 2 to 6 p.m. north of the Swine Barn. Donors will receive a voucher for a free milkshake courtesy of Hamilton County Farm Bureau, Inc. and a ticket to upgrade a meal in the Hamilton County Producers Tent to use any time during the 2013 4-H Fair, along with other incentives provided by the Indiana Blood Center. IBC is the agency through which lifesaving blood and blood components are supplied to more than 60 member hospitals throughout central and southern Indiana. IBC provides vital assistance to modern medicine through other related services including specialized blood typing for organ transplants, viral marker testing, tissue banks and the National Marrow Donor Program.

Homemade ice cream contest – Bring the family recipe and join the fun at the Homemade Ice Cream Contest at the Hamilton County 4-H Fair on July 19. The contest will be at 7 p.m. in the 4-H Commons on the east side of the Show Arena. The contest is open to all Hamilton County residents. Each team of two to four people will have 40 minutes to make its favorite ice cream recipe. Prizes will be awarded in three categories. They are: all flavors – electric freezer, all flavors – crank freezer and youth (ages 19 and under). A special award will be given to the team who best demonstrates the “Art of Ice Cream Making.”

Participants using recipes with eggs must use cooked eggs, egg substitutes or powdered eggs. Teams must furnish their own supplies and register in the 4-H Office by 5 p.m. July 19. For more information or a registration form, visit www3.ag.purdue.edu/counties/hamilton/Documents/ IceCreamContest.pdf or contact the Purdue Extension Hamilton County Office at 776-0854.

Help 4-Hers feed the hungry – Hamilton County residents can join the Hamilton County 4-H Program, Riverview Hospital and Good Samaritan in the ninth annual “4-H CAN Make a Difference” food drive in conjunction with the Hamilton County 4-H Fair. The public is encouraged to bring nonperishable food items such as canned soup, vegetables, beans, peanut butter, pasta, cereal/ oatmeal, powdered milk and rice to the fair. The food banks strive to acquire nutritious food for low-income families and individuals in our community. Drop off items in Exhibition Center Hall B during the 4-H Fair July 18 through 23.

Pet parade – Youth and their pets can explore their creativity by dressing in costumes to participate in the Hamilton County 4-H Pet Parade on July 21. The Pet Parade will be at 6 p.m. in the Rabbit Tent (west of the O.V. Winks building) at the Hamilton County 4-H Fairgrounds, 2003 Pleasant St., Noblesville. Participants must be 2 to 8 years old and accompanied by their favorite pet. All participants will receive a ribbon and awards will be given to the most creative participants. Participants are to report to the Rabbit Tent at 5:30 p.m. for registration.

Proof of the pet’s current rabies vaccinations must be provided at time of registration. Immediately following the event, all Pet Parade pets must leave the 4-H Fairgrounds.

FR O M T H E BACKSHOP Don’t be bugged by summer pests

Losing focus It is our position that the alarming increase in the diagnosis of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, more commonly known as ADHD, should be closely monitored. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, diagnosis of the disorder has escalated more than 50 percent in the U.S. during the past 10 years with one in five high school-aged boys being diagnosed. The most commonly prescribed treatments are stimulants commonly known as “study drugs.” Unfortunately, many of the individuals prescribed these “study drugs” are now distributing them among fellow students who don’t have prescriptions for the drugs, thereby using them as “mental steroids.”

These drugs also are addictive and can cause anxiety. Since the diagnosis of ADHD is purely based on feedback from patients, parents and teachers, the question must be begged, “Why the increase in diagnosis and is drug therapy really necessary in all cases?”

Interestingly, diagnosis of ADHD is not nearly as high in Hispanic and African American populations. Possibly the difference is due to lack of education on the issue, social stigma or varying perceptions of lack of concentration being categorized as a “disorder” that needs treatment. If the trend in “brain juicing” continues to escalate, it is a very troubling sign indeed.

Air traffic control Commentary by Terry Anker In the modern world, we have a strong variety of choice at our disposal. A dizzying array of food, lifestyle, and other options arrive in waves prompted by the stunning success of our capitalistic system from the past quarter of a millennium or so. Our grandparents (or even parents) would be amazed by the thousands of options of new products and services available to enhance or extend life.

In the area of transportation alone, automobiles are safer, faster and more efficient and luxurious than at any previous time in our history. Airplanes fill the skies such that most cities of any consequence are all scrambling to invest in enlarged or redeveloped airports to keep up with the volume. This new-found mobility has flooded the roadways with scores of commuters overwhelming capacity and leading to calls for more efficient means of conveyance like the efforts aimed at regional transportation.

But in the context of these seismic shifts in

consumer habits, one still has to figure out the best way to get from Indianapolis to Chicago for the mother-in-law’s birthday party. There was a time, in a U.S. domestic pre-terror world, that the fastest way to make the trip was a commuter flight. The airport was closer (the new terminal is great but it seems to take 30 minutes longer to get there) and the lines were short. One could arrive, park and board a plane in a third the time it now takes. Today is a very different story. The good folks at the Airport Authority (the name conjures up brown shirts and jack boots) work hard to make air travel stress-free, but when is it simply easier to drive? Is it distance, time or TSA agents who seem angry at you before you meet them that determines the route?

“When we protect ourselves from what we fear, we also undermine our capacity for wonder.”

- Johnathan Martin

In response to what seems to be a fairly regular swarming of mosquitoes in certain areas of the city – especially where neighborhood ponds do not have fountains – the city’s street department, thankfully, continues to be on the hunt for the pests and the eggs that they leave behind. Mosquitoes in summer should be no surprise to any of us, and even a simple walk through the yard at dusk will bring them to your ankles and others locations. The department is testing, and if the test comes up three cherries a larvicide is deployed. Don’t despair; it’s all EPA-approved and will not harm aquatic “residents” or animals on land.

Let’s get back to the issue of fountains, though. The department states that if a pond or lake has such an implement, the larvae are all but guaranteed to not survive, because they cannot handle the flowing water a fountain generates. The department also has begun to use fogging treatments, also EPAcompliant. It kind of takes us back to our kidhood, when the big truck from the city would cruise through the neighborhood fogging the flying nuisances with DDT, that sweet-smelling chemical that allowed our whiffle ball games to go past sunset.

Reminiscing over, we’re compelled to tell you that crews will be making regular passes throughout the city with the fogging vehicles Monday through Friday evenings from approximately 7 to 11 p.m. – as long as Mother Nature allows. If there is rain, or wind in excess of 6 mph, there will be no fogging. The city can do only so much, though. It’s up to you to remove all standing water on your property and make sure your window screens are “bug tight.” You may learn more by calling the department at 776-6348.

She pulls her in every time

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

I confess. This past weekend I committed a cardinal sin of parenting. No, I didn’t divulge Yogurtz plans to a toddler before humor we were actually pulling into the parking lot (that would be madness!) or retract a disciplinary verdict once the tears began (their tears, not mine), but I did break a mommy rule that I constantly critique other parents for disregarding. And though it pains me to admit that I am, on occasion, less than perfect, I’m hoping you can learn from my mistake. Here it goes.

I engaged in an irrational argument with my 9-year-old daughter. There. I said it. I know, I know, I wasn’t in a good place when I went to check on her, and I should have walked away as soon as I saw that she was safe. But I was tired and irritable and as soon as she began crying and screaming, well . . . I just got sucked right in.

Something about how I had lied to her and had broken my promise of staying away from people who smoke, including my husband Doo (because now I was going to die from lung cancer) . . . ugh, she made me so angry that I jumped right into the crazy and treated her as if she were a hostile, adult witness.

Of course, as soon as I removed myself from the controversial situation, albeit way too late, I thought, “You’re an idiot, Danielle.” Doo concurred.

“You know better than to engage her! She’s a

drama queen. She’s going to push all of your buttons so she can get and keep your attention.”

I hate it when he’s right.

I honestly think God gave me a gorgeous little girl/future Oscar winner as penance for my tendency to judge others’ parenting decisions. Not to their faces, of course. That’s just mean. But behind closed doors unfortunately, analyzing the way other people handle their children is, and always has been, one of my favorite pastimes.

(At least it’s not porn!) In my defense, I empathize now, too, though that piece of maturity apparently goes unnoticed by God as He seems to enjoy watching me struggle almost daily with a precocious tween.

It’s just so much harder to squelch tantrums when you’re emotionally involved. I have no issue dealing with nieces and nephews when they lose their wheels, but as soon as it’s one of mine, in particular a daughter, I can’t seem to stay “above the fray.” I completely disregard the “Shallow Water” sign and dive in head first.

Stupid.

We all have our parenting challenges; mine is avoiding middle-school arguments with my children. Ah, well. Who wants Yogurtz? Peace out.

The Joint to Offer New Twist on Chiropractic Care New Clinic Open in Hamilton Town Center

Noblesville, IN. June 8, 2013. The Joint…the chiropractic place, is creating a new philosophy of healthcare, focusing on convenience and affordability.

“Regular chiropractic adjustments are an important part of a wellness program," states Charlie Marsh, franchisee of The Joint...the chiropractic place. "These treatments allow the body to function better on all levels." All chiropractic adjustments provided by experienced and licensed chiropractors.

But that's not all. It is an innovative concept, changing the way people get treatment. "We don't take appointments, so our patients come in when it is convenient for them, seven days a week."

The Joint is open Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Saturdays 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. and Sunday and Sundays, 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. “Our philosophy is that no one should have

Cartoonist was drawn west

Commentary by Tim Campbell

Most of you only know me as the guy offering up the weekly Currentoon in the paper, but I thought I would break tradition and try my skills at communicating with more verbiage and less visual.

Last week, I ventured to the American West and attended my first convention of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists in Salt Lake City.

The first day of the convention was held at The Leonardo (a cool museum combining science and art) and featured various sessions on The Art of Controversy. The highlight of the day came in the evening with the annual Cartoonist Death Match at the Tavernacle Piano Bar. In this event, four editorial cartoonists were given the chance to show their cartooning skills (and their firm grasp of foul language). Fortunately for the patrons of the Tavernacle, the participants were mercifully shot with a Nerf gun if they ran over their allotted time.

The second day also was filled with various sessions on our craft, but the most interesting for myself was a discussion given by Jann Haworth.

Jann, along with her former husband, designed the cover of The Sgt. Pepper’s Lonley Hearts Club Band album back in the 1960s. Along with many tales she shared about the Beatles and the album cover, the most amusing story she told concerned getting written permission from the various (living) celebrities that were to have their likenesses

included on the cover. Having written and asked permission from Mae West, the legendary sex symbol/actress responded by asking why she would have any association with a Lonely Hearts Club. Thankfully, an explanation of the album cover’s concept was given and her classic image is included for eternity.

Perhaps the most epic event for all of us occurred at the Natural History Museum of Utah where we spent an evening with a living legend in our profession, the great Pat Oliphant. Oliphant has been doing editorial cartoons since most of us were eating crayons. He charmed and delighted us at 77 years young in his Australian and tales of the good ol’ days when newspapers were abundant and lampooning former President Richard Nixon in caricature was a daily delight.

Overall, I found my first AAEC convention to be phenomenal with respect to the people I met. It’s an amazing and satisfying feeling to be surrounded by so many people I admire (many of them Pulitzer Prize recipients); I came to realize they already knew of me and my work before I arrived.

I left Carmel as a fan of all these talented and passionate people and returned from Salt Lake as their friend. I can’t wait for next year’s convention.

NOW OPEN!

to wait to receive the care they need to feel better. Additionally, our no-appointment-necessary policy makes it possible for everyone to get in and see the doctor―even those trying to juggle work and family activities,” explained Marsh. The first appointment usually takes around 20 minutes, and on subsequent visits, the patient is usually in and out in 10 minutes.

But, it's not just convenient, it's affordable. The introductory adjustment is just $19, and a membership plan is available that offers four visits per month for $49. “In most cases,” states Marsh, “a full month of care at The Joint costs less than most co-pays for a single visit elsewhere, and no insurance is needed.”

Professional, Affordable, Convenient Healthcare on your schedule. It just might be The Joint that Noblesville has been waiting for! Call 317-773-7133 or visit www.thejoint.com for more information.

SOR musicians hit the road

By Kathleen Devaney • editorial@youarecurrent.com Just like Jack Black got his band to battle in the movie “School of Rock,” Carmel’s own School of Rock battled it out June 29 and 30 at Summerfest, “the world’s largest music Music festival” in Milwaukee, Wisc.

SOR bands played stages at Summerfest among artists like Pitbull, The Silversun Pickups, Alice Cooper and others. This year’s Battle of the Bands competition was called Gemba (which is Japanese for the “real place.”)

There were 30 bands representing 21 Schools of Rock from across the country competing. The winner of the entire SOR competition hailed from Seattle, Washington.

While SOR Carmel may not have made it into the six final bands to compete, the school of just more than a year old rocked out and played perfectly.

“We were proud of our kids,” said the owner of SOR Carmel Steve McFarland. “In the end, the kids got an experience most musicians would kill for... playing on big stages at the largest music festival in the world, they met new friends, and saw just how good they can become when they stick with it.”

SOR Carmel played six songs from a variety of artists.

“Our covers of Led Zepplin, Soundgarden and the Doobie Brothers were flawless,” McFarland said.

Bands were judged by members of the Cold War Kids, the guitarist from Bowie, the drummer from Stray Cats and others.

SOR Carmel consisted of 13 band members, ages ranging from 11 to 17 years old. Members played with different members depending on each song.

“We don’t actually put kids in bands, we cast a show,” McFarland said.

Since SOR Carmel has been open, bands have played venues such as Old National Centre, The Hard Rock café Indianapolis and the Van’s Warped Tour.

The drummer for SOR Carmel, Cameron McLenaghen, said he was excited for Summerfest because it’s a good opportunity.

“I’ve played a lot of shows before so I’m not nervous,” he said.

SOR Carmel of whom has about 100 students, all mostly joined at beginners experience levels.

You won’t know you really worked out till TOMORROW!

According to the Indiana Board of Animal Health, 29 pigs from the Grant and Hancock counties fairs have wellness tested positive for variant influenza A (H3N2v), causing 12 human cases of swine flu as of July 3. To ensure the safety of Hamilton County 4-H Fair patrons, organizers are taking extra precautions – “over and above what the Indiana Board of Animal Health have recommended” according to Bill Rice, Hamilton County ag and natural resources extension educator.

“We understand a lot of people want to see the animals but we’re just trying to think of their safety,” he said. “We’re discussing asking the public not to enter the (swine) barn. This is all part of public health safety to protect them.”

Patrons should know that you can’t get swine flu from eating pork products. It’s a respiratory virus that’s passed the same way any other flu is spread, through droplet infection. Since there is no vaccine available for people to protect against this virus, the best way to prevent infection is to avoid sources of exposure to the virus.

Rice said animal move-in day is July 17, before the start of the 4-H fair on July 18, but this year all swine will not be allowed on the fairgrounds until July 19. The incubation time is estimated at 72 hours and IBAH officials say the shorter amount of contact hogs have together the less likely the influenza A will pass from animal to animal. Rice added that like all animals, swine will be subjected to a check from a veterinarian before being allowed in the barn.

“Those animals not going to the livestock auction will leave Monday morning,” he said.

Unlike many counties, Rice said Hamilton County is requiring that their swine have two doses of the influenza A vaccination – with the last dose administered before June 30.

“We’ll have a signed, notarized affidavit to that affect,” he said. “With the 72-hour period and vaccination protocol, we’ve certainly minimized the risk,” In addition to an increased number of hand sanitizer stations at barn entrances and across the fairgrounds, Rice also suggests that parents with young children carry them when walking

through barns.

“They are at the same level of the animals breathing and try to touch them,” he said.

Emily Peterson and her sister, Jenna, have two hogs each. Both are aware of the rule changes this year.

“I think the shots are a good thing because it prevents the disease in the barn,” Emily said.

“People come to the fair to see the animals.”

Both girls said the biggest change will be the care of their animals. Since both show more than one species, move-in day is usually a long one as they prepare the temporary living quarters for their animals. This year, they will have to go through the process twice and care for their swine at home as their animals are at the fair.

“We usually stay at the fair until 10:30 or 11 o’clock,” Jenna said, adding she’ll have to wake up earlier and leave the fair earlier when her hogs are not at the fairgrounds.

Variant influenza A H3N2v was identified in Indiana last year, with a total of 138 cases in 2012.

The Riverview Hospital Foundation raised more than $88,000 during its 21st annual Heartfelt Thanks Golf Tournament on June 26. The money raised will benefit the Cardiology and Vascular Center at Riverview Hospital.

Is your jewelry protected?

Commentary by Jamie Ianigro

Question from Anonymous from Zionsville: I’m getting ready to buy an expensive piece of jewelry. What do I need to do to make sure it’s properly protected?

Insurance Response from Jamie Ianigro: Congratulations! I hope you get the answer you’re hoping for. As you have recently realized, jewelry is high-valued, easily lost or destroyed and vulnerable to theft.

Jewelry is covered on a standard home policy, but usually has a special limit on the total amount of coverage (usually a few hundred dollars). It doesn’t sound like a few hundred dollars is going to cover your potential purchase. Luckily, there are a few options available to protect your jewelry.

Adding an endorsement to your home policy is the easiest way to protect your jewelry, but you can also purchase a separate policy or roll the dice and leave it uninsured. When deciding which method you are going to go with, there are a few questions you should keep in mind: • Does the coverage consider jewelry values that increase over time?

• Does it cover mysterious disappearance (it’s gone, but you don’t know when or how it disappeared)?

• What causes of loss does the policy cover and exclude?

The next thing you need to figure out is what your piece of jewelry is worth. Since this item will be newly purchased, you have a store receipt or certificate from the jeweler. If you don’t have a receipt or the item has not been appraised recently, it’s time to seek out an expert and get an updated appraisal. Sometimes a jewelry store that you frequent will offer free appraisals, but usually you have to pay for an appraiser’s services. The American Society of Appraisers is a good resource if you’re looking for an appraiser. You can use the “Find an Appraiser” feature on their appraisers.org website.

It is common practice to have your appraisals updated every three to five years. In addition, there are a few other things you should consider doing: • Take photos of your jewelry from several angles • Keep original receipts and appraisals • Consider keeping your jewelry in a hidden safe or storage area Make sure you’re not being overprotective though. Jewelry is bought to be worn and can’t be enjoyed sitting in a safe.

What about the Oxford comma?

Commentary by Jordan Fischer

Question: “Have the rules for serial commas changed? When I was in school, it was ‘red, white and blue’ (the grammar guy second comma being unnecessary with the ‘and’), but in my children’s school books, it appears to be ‘red, white, and blue.’ Is there a rule about this?” (David Ballard) Answer: Thanks for writing in, David. The serial, or Oxford, comma is a popular point of contention between writers and grammar enthusiasts. It’s also the name of a popular single by the band “Vampire Weekend,” but that’s not really germane to this column.

To answer your question: Yes, there is a rule about the serial comma – many of them. Which rule you abide by tends to be decided by what country you’re in or what style guide you follow.

The “Chicago Manual of Style,” Strunk and White’s “Elements of Style,” and the AMA and APA stylebooks all mandate the use of the serial comma.

It is also mandated by the “Oxford Style Manual” (thus an “Oxford comma”). The typical reasoning behind using the serial comma is to create

uniformity and to eliminate ambiguity about the relationship between the last two items in a series.

On the flip side, omitting the serial comma has its proponents as well: “The New York Times Stylebook;” the AP Stylebook (used by the vast, vast majority of newspapers and magazines in the U.S.); the style guide of “The Economist,” the “Cambridge Guide to English Usage;” etc. Why not use the serial comma? The argument goes that it is redundant in simple lists since there is already a conjunction separating the last two items.

On this particular grammar debate, in the end it’s a matter of choice and consistency. If you’re writing for a medical journal, or following the Chicago (or agreeing) style guide, use the serial comma. If you’re writing for a newspaper or magazine, omit the serial comma. Otherwise, pick a side, grab a style book and join the debate. Nobody likes a fight like grammar nerds.

Do you equip or enable others?

Commentary by Kristen Boice

Do you tend to make excuses for the behavior or choices of others? Do you want to rescue or save others? Do you relationships want to help people and end up feeling exhausted? Are you working harder than the other person? Do you do things for others or stuff your feelings just to keep the peace? Do you rationalize or minimize other people’s choices or behavior in order to keep from being embarrassed?

These are all key questions when exploring whether or not you are an enabler.

What exactly does it mean to be an enabler?

Enablers have good intentions of helping other people yet they provide solutions and fix things for others preventing them from suffering their own consequences. Ultimately, people never learn the lessons they need to make better choices and grow. Enablers end up doing the work for them and the person floats along without solving their problems.

There is a big difference between enabling and equipping people. When we equip someone, we give the person the information or guidance and then let that person make their own decisions. We let go of the outcome and understand it is out of our control and the other person has to want to help themselves.

We also let the person know they can handle it on their own. We understand we are doing a

disservice to another if we try to save or rescue them. They have to want to help themselves. We model what it looks like to have good boundaries by saying “No” when necessary. There is an understanding that we are all responsible for our own decisions. We empower others to step into who they are and help them learn from every decision they make.

On the other hand, an enabler tends to want to save and rescue others. Enabling doesn’t allow the other person to make their own choices and understand the connection to the consequences. Many people have to learn from experience to not repeat the same mistakes. Enablers have a hard time seeing someone struggle and learn from their own choices. They take responsibility for other’s choices and somehow feel responsible themselves.

We can often see an enabling pattern with parents. The best job we can do as parents is equip our children so they can make the best choices. Let them learn from their own choices and understand the cause and effect between choices and consequences both positive and negative. Ask yourself, “Am I equipping or enabling them?” before taking action.

AUTISM CLINIC OF INDIANA

New hope for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADD and ADHD Highly Trained Medical Staff • Advanced Individualized Treatment Options • Most Major Medical Insurance Plans Accepted Genetic Consultation • Review of Medical records • Laboratory testing “While early intervention is critical, ASD Treatment Clinic taught us it is never too late with children on the Autism Spectrum. We have three teenage children on the spectrum with varying ranges of disabilities. With Genetic Consultants of Indiana, ASD Treatment Clinic we learned what was happening to our children from the inside out. I call it our roadmap. We found out what our children needed without guessing or trying experimental treatments.

Plus we loved that our major medical insurance was accepted.” - Bob & Sharon Smith, IN

“A child sneaks out of the house, runs away, is hyper, has minimal focus and can’t socialize with friends for more than a minute. That used to be our son, Jack.

• SOCIALIZATION: Why is my child having difficulty making friends?

• IMPULSIVENESS: Why doesn’t my child understand consequences of his/her actions?

• FOCUSING: Why does my child have problems paying attention in school and at home?

• HYPERACTIVITY: Why can’t my child sit still, and has trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep?

• ANGER: Why does my child display such anger and gets out of control with his/her emotions?

If you can relate to any of these questions there is help.

27

People think the answer to autism and ADHD are psychiatric medicines, but we knew that was only going to cover up his real symptoms. Despite this, we tried several mainstream treatments that produced little to no results. In the six months that Jack has been on the protocol through ASD Treatment Clinics, he has experienced much improvement with his focus, learning ability, behavior and overall wellbeing.

Early intervention is very important for children on the autism spectrum and we thank God that we were led to the ASD Treatment Clinic. Jack now has a treatment that we can trust will improve not only his life but the lives of our entire family.”

Just a few miles from Mexico City are the monumental pyramids of Teotihuacan, one of the world’s most important cities during the first millennium.

Teotihuacan was founded as a religious center on a highlands plateau in about 200 B.C. By 600 A.D., Teotihuacan had a population of up to 200,000, making it the largest city in what are now the Americas and the sixth largest city in the world, about a third the size of Constantinople. Multi-story apartment buildings accommodated the large urban population, which included skilled potters and artists whose remarkably well preserved murals are still on display.

Teotihuacan’s brick and stone pyramids are connected by a broad boulevard. The Pyramid of the Sun, constructed in about 100 A.D. along the boulevard, is the third largest pyramid in the world. At 733 feet per side, its base is about the size of that of the Great Pyramid of Giza but it rises only half as high. The Pyramids of the Moon and of the Feathered Serpent, at opposite

ends of the boulevard, are smaller but equally impressive.

The pyramids of Teotihuacan were built as places of worship, with temples to influential gods on their flattened summits. Bodies buried in the pyramids with their hands tied have been interpreted as sacrifices to those gods, probably made at the times the temples were dedicated.

Teotihuacan collapsed in the seventh or eighth centuries. When Aztecs later discovered the ruins, they gave the city its current name, which means “the birthplace of the gods.” Mistaking the pyramids for tombs, they named its boulevard the “Avenue of the Dead.”

Americans often assume they must cross an ocean to see the important cities of antiquity.

But at about the time Rome was falling to the barbarians, Teotihuacan in nearby Mexico rivaled the great cities of the world in size and influence. A trip there provides the bonus of seeing a collection of pyramids whose only real rivals are in Egypt.

BEACH-READY ABS Confidence is the best accessory for your bikini, and there’s no better way to gain that confidence than with a good ‘ol fashion workout. Since it is bikini season, focusing on your abs can result in quick toning if paired with proper cardiovascular activity. Pair this toning ab workout with three to five days of cardiovascular exercise. You might surprise yourself with incredible results!

SWISS SPORTS SWING Lie back, knees bent, feet flat on floor, arms at sides, palms down. Extend right arm overhead and left leg straight out, then bring right hand and left foot up toward each other as you curl your upper back off floor. Exhale; lower. Do 20 reps, then repeat on opposite side.

TRUNK TWISTER Stand with feet together, arms down, elbows bent to 90 degrees. Jump about 6 inches to left as you twist torso right 45 degrees. Repeat in opposite direction for 1 rep. Do 3 sets of 20 as fast as you can.

HIP SWIVEL Get into a plank position, resting on forearms with your hands clasped. Lift butt toward ceiling while rotating left hip toward floor; return to plank. Repeat on right side for 1 rep. Do 3 sets of 20.

Admire your rock-star abs in the mirror.

Gel – Gel is great for almost every hair type and it will provide control and shine, while also enhancing volume. Ideal for spiking shorter hair, or laying down longer hair. Hold = 4 (Salon 01 suggests Gage Shaping Gel).

Cream – Creams are less shiny then gels or pomades and work best on medium to long hair of any texture to build volume and density. Hold = 4 (Salon 01 suggests Gage Shaping Cream).

Paste – Use this if you have thick and/or straight hair to improve texture and to achieve maximum control. Hold = 5 (Salon 01 suggests Gage Shaping Paste).

SALON 01 Q&A: YOU ASKED, WE ANSWER! “How can I get smoother hair without damaging it?”

We have a couple options at Salon 01 to get the smooth, silky hair you desire!

The first is the Keratin Complex Smoothing Treatment or the Express Keratin Blowout. These services infuse keratin into your hair’s cuticles without overloading your hair with chemicals. The treatments are then sealed in with high heat from a flat iron. Generally, the results from these treatments last about six to eight weeks, depending on how well you maintain the upkeep regimens.

The second option, which has become our most popular, is the Brazilian Blowout. This service enriches hair with amino acids and acai berry extract and creates a smooth silky finish that lasts up to 12 weeks. Each of these treatments will eliminate frizz in your hair as well as reduce drying and styling time.

Simple solutions can also be smart choices

Commentary by Randy Sorrell

For printing your a quote next job. on CALL TODAY US

PC or MAC? Me, I’m a Mac junkie. Our business and family successfully transitioned a few years ago after an avalanche outdoors of viruses and clunky programs. We have been thrilled with the ease and how solutions seem to flow naturally.

Our creative “green” industry is ripe for forward programs and the elegant Apple world.

The biography of Steve Jobs, authored by Walter Isaacson, celebrates the brilliance of simplifying, among other progressive views, and his fruitarian lifestyle. His outrageously strong opinion proved that when implemented correctly, simple can also be very smart. Easy to operate. Gorgeous. Stunning.

Simple. Smart. Brilliant.

Curiously, the same can be said regarding outdoor living spaces and the design thereof. Complicated spaces can be a challenge to navigate and difficult to appreciate. Our interpretation of this brilliant simplicity translates to oversized patio landings, gracious step systems with flowing treads/risers, clean materials, natural stone, the use of anything real, repurposing where appropriate and plants that perform multiple functions (shade, privacy, color, fragrance, intrigue).

The featured natural boulder retaining wall is oddly synonymous to the PC or MAC dilemma.

Sure, the wall could have been constructed out

We understand the sadness associated with losing a beloved pet. When the need arises we offer compassionate pick up of your pet from your home or veterinarian's clinic; private cremation or burial assistance.

of popular segmental retaining wall stone that frequents many neighbors’ back yards as seat walls (included elsewhere in this project). But, the locally sourced, five tons of Indian Hill boulders installed quickly, confidently holds the hot tub and patio in place, screams color, provides unique texture and looks stunning as the dragons blood creeping sedum and yellow moonbeam coreopsis make themselves at home. Which would you rather have?

Subway tiles are still a good choice

Commentary by David Decker

Subway tiles have been a go-to design choice in kitchens and bathrooms for generations. These rectangular shaped tiles are excellent for creating a current, contempoindoors rary look that still feels very timeless. Today, subway tiles are being used in backsplash designs, flooring and more.

The subway tile design first debuted in the New York City underground subway system back in the early 1900’s. The sleek, contemporary design quickly caught on with the general public, and soon the entire country was decorating kitchens and bathrooms with these “subway” tiles. Back then, most subway tiles were made from ceramic, measured 3 x 6 inches, and came in white.

The key to their popularity was their ability to make any room look more open and airy. Plus, they were stain resistant and easy to keep clean, which was a huge bonus for homeowners who didn’t have the luxuries of modern cleaning equipment.

More than 100 years have passed since those first tiles were laid, and subway tiles remain as popular as ever. Ceramic is still the most popular material, because it is easy to clean and maintain, but subway tiles can be found in almost every color, texture and finish imaginable, you can be sure that there is an option available to match any home décor. Manufacturers have even reworked the 3 x 6 inch size standard. Now, almost any rectangular tile with a height twice its length is classified as a “subway tile.”

The two most popular places where homeowners install subway tiles are in the kitchen and bathroom. But they’ve made the leap into other spaces that benefit from easy-care surfaces such as laundry rooms, basements and fireplace surrounds. Many people love the way they can create sleek, modern looking backsplashes or tile surrounds. Visually, the shape of the tile tends to

draw the eye upward, which makes the space seem wider and the ceilings appear higher. This is especially true for the larger-sized subway tiles. Large-scale tile is becoming increasingly popular because its size tricks the eye into making the room look larger than it really is.

When planning your subway tile placement, keep direction and accent pieces in mind. Shifting the direction of the tiles can radically alter the look you are creating. Additionally, many designers have used subway tiles to create distinctive border or frame patterns.
