OUR VIEWS

It is our position to get out and vote Tuesday as our civic duty. This is a critical time in elected office and the results of this election will heavily influence the direction of our cities.

Although most of us believe it is everyone’s civic duty to vote, isn’t it just as important to be well educated on the pressing issues and the candidates’ views, background and philosophy? There are multiple resources available to us for information about the contenders and their stances on matters of state. There is no excuse for not being prepared on the appropriate topics in the upcoming election. Our local officials have considerable influence in how our cities develop; there may be no individual who would have more direct impact on our immediate lives.

Yes, many Hamilton County elections were, for all practical purposes, decided in the May primary. Carmel does not have any contested races. So use the time to read up for the 2012 run.

On Tuesday, please be prepared to get out and cast your vote. For more information on who’s running, visit www.hamiltoncounty.in.gov/services. asp?id=2353.

Bathroom habits

It is our position some people really need to clean up their bathroom habits. Although we certainly understand public bathrooms are just that – public –it doesn’t provide the right for individuals to treat them as if they were their own personal cesspool. It never ceases to amaze us how public bathrooms are used by some as if they were designed to be destroyed. Is it possible these individuals live like this in their own homes? Is it possible they are so angry at the poor souls who must clean the bathrooms they undertake all manner and disgusting personal behavior in order to prove their superiority?

Certainly, the cost of maintaining a restroom is built into the cost of a cheeseburger. However, isn’t proper respect for public bathrooms really reflective on the person who uses it? Although it would be highly regarded to wipe off the counter and generally clean up after one’s self, we would be satisfied if people would simply find a way to flush the toilets and, well, find a way to use the facility in a more specific and respectful fashion – for themselves and for the rest of us.

Deferred molar maintenance Commentary

By Terry Anker While having coffee with a vibrant 80-yearold recently, the topic turned to the advancing age of my own kids. We talked about Halloween and how this year was the first in more than a decade I had not followed one of my own around the neighborhood on the annual ritual of begging for treats and threatening tricks. My own boys no longer required my supervision.

The younger was with his buddies, chaperoned by another father in a neighborhood with a far greater density of residences – more candy per square foot, I guess. And the older, spent the evening studying for an algebra test the next day. My octogenarian friend shared a knowing laugh and we had the usual conversation about how time marches on. He pointed to the mechanical failures beset an aging body. In his case, he found himself at the dentist more often than not being told his teeth, especially those in the rear, were beginning to fail not due to defect

or neglect but because they had reached their maximum usable life.

It struck me my perception about teeth had been all wrong. I assumed they lasted forever, failing only if betrayed by their owner. Of course reason suggests all grinding devices eventually wear down. I once read elephants often die of starvation when their teeth grit to the point of ineffectiveness. In the case of my aging comrade, he simply was off to have them repaired or replaced as the circumstance warranted. He was not deterred by the development but saw it simply as care required on a vintage mandible. Why do we so often defer maintenance, fearing it acknowledges our mortality instead of embracing it as a marker of good stewardship?

What is being done with the arson investigations?

Wilson is wrong and I’m paying for it Editor, I read this publication quite often and usually enjoy the articles and stories without any judgment. Unfortunately, today, I cannot keep my mouth shut. I am beside myself at the “Tree Murderers” article (which appeared in the Oct. 25 edition). I will keep it short. First of all, Mrs. Wilson does not own that property and has no right to plant “anything” on it, no matter how she thinks it will improve their view from their Carmel home. Now Hamilton County had to pay, using “my” tax dollars to have them removed. This is just another example of how people like Danielle think that because she has money and is a Carmelite that she has the right to do anything she pleases, tell people how to live, what to do, etc. Word of advice for Mrs. Wilson, mind your own business, not mine.

Plant on your own property and hopefully soon you’ll get a bill for the mowing services.

Editor, I am writing in response to Mayor Ditslear’s “Incumbent talks Campaigning” article by Robert Herrington (which appeared on Oct. 25). While I have never voted for Mayor Ditslear, I enjoy these periodic articles because it seems that it is a good venue to get some information about current events in our town. In light of the recent arsons in Old Town Noblesville, I have been surprised at the lack of information given to residents. I understand it may be an ongoing investigation, but not even a “we’re working on it” or “here’s what you can do to

be safe” or “I’m sorry this happened in your neighborhood.” These awful crimes could have been turned around into a chance to bond together neighbors who may be strangers which is what helps prevent crime, I believe.

I mean the lack of anonymity. I can see from my backyard one of the arson sites and from my front porch another, so this really hits home with me. I agree with Ditslear that we do have an excellent community and I am one of the 91 percent of residents who would agree Noblesville is a good place to live, but I do not feel 100 percent safe in my neigh-

John Ditslear is good for Noblesville Editor, I have known Mayor John Ditslear for many years, even before I was Mayor. In private business, as a leader of the school board, and as a public servant while he’s been mayor of Noblesville, he has been a very good leader – a leader with integrity. John has always been a person who is community minded. He has the ability to bring together the business sector, the schools, nonprofits, and city government in an effort to make Noblesville the best that it can be. Judging by the number of national awards Noblesville has received since John first became mayor, I’d say he’s been exceptionally successful as our mayor.

It’s always disappointing at election time when some candidates manipulate facts, distort truths, and lower themselves to shameful tactics. I am so proud of John, and am en-

borhood anymore. This is a public relations nightmare for the mayor in my mind, but I suppose no one else agrees or cares or has noticed or feels they have the power to speak up. I think that the things that city government “cannot be complacent” about go beyond managing city finances and bringing businesses and working with existing businesses. Those things are important, but obvious. There is a breakdown in the community spirit of this town - I mean with the actual people, not the data results from a survey. What is the plan to fix that, Mayor Ditslear?

Emily Compton, 46060

Reader misses candidate’s position

couraged that Mayor John Ditslear does NOT succumb to those temptations. It’s refreshing to have a leader that is so positive in his view of our community.

Some of John Ditslear’s leadership qualities include fiscal responsibility, integrity, trustworthiness, optimism, and relationship building. Good leaders motivate and encourage others (in a positive, uplifting way) to do more and be better. I believe Mayor Ditslear has done, and will continue to do, a great job of promoting optimism and economic opportunities for Noblesville’s future.

On Tuesday, please join me in voting John Ditslear for Mayor. And we can, as John always says, “Keep Noblesville Moving Forward.”

Pat Logan Mayor of Noblesville, 1980 – 1988

Editor, Amy Englert’s letter in the Nov. 1 edition completely misses my point. The exact phrase she’s referring to in my letter to her is “The current administration gave Positron $7 million of taxpayer money to build a nuclear facility in the Corporate Campus.” I could have used the terms isotopic, radioactive, or even radiopharmaceutical manufacturing and my point would still have been the $7 million, not the nuclear nature of the plant.

There’s no question they will be making radioactive material; I presume there are safety guidelines to protect the community.

My point is that the city has no business taking out a loan to pay Positron $7 million to move here.

As far as the budget is concerned, the mayor and his supporters can spin it any way they like but the fact remains that Noblesville’s budget increased 65 percent from 2005 to 2010.

That’s $29 million in five years that the taxpayers are responsible for, which makes a $5 million savings (which was forced by the 1 percent property tax cap) seem pretty small in comparison.

COMMENTARY

By Danielle Wilson “Thank you, Natalie. Gosh, what a surprise.

Okay, well, I’d like to first thank my brothers and sister; their incessant complaining really helped to define my motivation. My dad for occasionally coming home late and missing out on the family meals; his absence allowed me to forget my inhibitions and manners, and really go for it. And finally, to my mom: If it weren’t for her sub-par meatloaf, her stingy rules about not leaving the table and her unfaltering inability to maintain control by 6:00 pm every night, well, let’s just say I’d still be sitting in the audience right now, watching Jennifer Lawrence accept this award. Can’t wait for ‘Hunger Games.’”

Dinner time drama: In my house, what starts off as a lovely family get-together usually degrades into a beauty parlor scene from “Steel Magnolias.” “I hate pork.” “He’s chewing with his mouth open.” “She’s looook-iinngg at me” Unless we’re eating pizza or pancakes, my children spend the 20 minutes they’re forced to be at the table complaining about the meal or debating the stupidity of the rules, which boil down to three bites of the entrée or you’re at the table until bedtime and nothing until the following morning.

Reasonable, right? But, by the way our boys, in particular, behave you’d think I was feeding

them arsenic-laced dog poo. Most nights they gag on their requisite three forkfuls (after much whining, hurumphing and considerable stalling) and then hold out until breakfast the next day.

They’d actually rather starve than eat tacos, barbecue ribs, or God forbid, oven-lemon chicken.

Honestly, we are usually on our own anyway.

Even when we are all together, sometimes we eat cereal, cheese bagels or eggs just so we can have a conversation with topics other than idle threats, bribery, or swear words. But on those rare nights when I have time to cook something other than Easy Mac, my husband and I are determined to have a real family sit-down meal. I heard families who eat together spawn fewer serial killers, or something like that. We absolutely refuse to cater to our kids’ personal preferences.

So I guess for the time being, we won’t be needing tickets to the IRT. We have outstanding dinner-time theater right in our very own kitchen. And with tuna casserole on the menu tonight, we should be in for some Oscar-worthy performances. Peace out.

» NHS receives Governor’s Award for Environmental Excellence – Noblesville High School has received the 2011 Governor’s Award for Environmental Excellence in Energy/Renewable Resources.

The governor’s awards recognize Indiana’s leaders who have implemented outstanding environmental strategies in their operations and decision-making processes.

NHS is the first school to receive the award since the awards program started in 1994. Originally constructed in 1996, NHS implemented a guaranteed energy savings project in 2004 because of concerns about the high levels of energy the building was consuming, elevated humidity levels, classroom noise issues, and extreme temperature variances throughout the school. The school’s utility bills have consistently decreased each year since the plan was implemented. Natural gas usage has been reduced by 50 percent and overall energy use has been reduced by 44 percent over five years.

NHS student Brooke Roe records in famous Blackbird Studios in hopes of country music success

By Zach Dunkin Current in Noblesville The road from Noblesville to Nashville is a familiar one to native son Steve Wariner, who left Noblesville High School 38 years ago to pursue what turned out to be an award-winning career in country music.

And, now, another NHS country music hopeful is attempting to follow that same path to Music City in search of her dream. While some of her classmates were finishing up their final summer in the sun before graduation, Brooke Roe was in the internationally-renowned Blackbird Studios in Nashville, recording three songs with members of the highlytouted backup band for country star Martina McBride. Artists ranging from Tim McGraw to Kings of Leon and Taylor Swift have recorded there.

“It was unreal,” said Brooke, taking a break from a recent rehearsal with her new band, Brooke Roe and The Union Crossroads. “It was so close to everything I’ve ever dreamed of in my life.

“Faith Hill was recording in the next room and that was pretty cool. At the same time, my dad was out in the Blackbird parking lot taking a call from a top executive at Curb Records wanting more information on me. It was all a total coincidence.”

Curb Records is a major label whose starstudded roster includes Tim McGraw, Faith Hill’s husband.

Brooke’s invitation to Nashville came via pro-

ducer Russell Wolff, who wanted her to record a “demo” of “Love I’m Leaving,” previously recorded by one of his clients, country singer Liz Carlisle. That song and two more original tracks were recorded with McBride’s band at Blackbird and the Sound Emporium.

Although she has enjoyed previous glimpses of country music fame by opening for Kenny Chesney at Peyton Manning’s annual Children’s Hospital fundraiser and performing at Verizon Music Center prior to a Rascal Flatts concert, the Nashville experience was a career highlight.

“It was such an incredible scene,” she said. “The guys in the band were so highly skilled. I’ve never worked with anyone like that. We were in Nashville for only three days, and I accomplished more towards my goal than I had previously done in my whole life.”

Until now, Brooke has been singing mostly to prerecorded instrumental tracks at dozens of county fairs and outdoor festivals and singing a cappella at sporting events, where she has wowed thousands at Lucas Oil Stadium and Conseco Fieldhouse with her rendition of the National Anthem. Last month she went “live,” fronting a new band at Peppers in Broad Ripple.

Once the Nashville recording is properly mastered and mixed, Wolff will start pitching a three-song EP to some of the recording industry folks in Nashville and setting up “showcases” for Brooke to perform live with McBride’s band.

Brooke can’t wait.

“What would be any better than a room full of record executives and producers listening to some unknown , unsigned artist like me backed by a band that plays for one of the best-known country stars in America?” she said. “I think they’d be impressed.”

Although singing to “tracks” since she was 12 years old has helped polish Brooke as a performer, she has long yearned to play for crowds with a live band. Enter Brooke Roe and The Crossroad Union, a great-looking and greatsounding group of five male musicians geared towards the classic rock sounds of Cheap Trick and Def Leppard, fronted by a female with strong country leanings.

So, how does Brooke’s little-bit-of-country mix with the guys’ little-bit-of-rock-and-roll attitude? Brooke Roe and The Crossroads Union is kind of like Rick Neilsen meets Taylor Swift.

“We butt heads a little but I give a little; they give a little,” said Brooke. “We know that to play in the clubs we need to play the classics because that’s what people love.

“But I’ve always been a fan of the classics. In fact, one of my favorite rock songs is ‘Pour Some Sugar on Me,’ and I begged them to do it. So, we mix our set list into being more of a country pop sound. We balance out pretty well.”

$7 Million For What?

Mayor Ditslear is so eager for an economic development success story that he offered Positron $7 Million to move here from Fishers. That's not a tax abatement, that's $7 Million cash, to a company that routinely loses money and whose stock trades for pennies a share.

Noblesville is a great community. We shouldn’t be paying companies to move here.

The Mayor says he's Noblesville's Economic Development Director.

I say we need a more professional approach.

It's time for new ideas, new energy, a new mayor.

Thankful for our community Commentary

By Mark Boice As we move beyond another Halloween we start to look forward to one of my favorite holidays, Thanksgiving. We have a lot of things to be thankful for in Noblesville. Although this is known by many of us, this week I wanted to highlight some things to be thankful for that may not be widely known.

Noblesville’s culture of continuous improvement is a great reason to be thankful. Our city was one of the first communities in Indiana to utilize brine in lieu of salt to keep roads safe during inclement weather. Brine is far less expensive and less destructive on the environment than salt. It works better than salt at many different temperatures and allowed Noblesville to provide safe roads during last year’s ice storm without breaking the city’s financial position.

Our police department is developing the community policing initiative which will help our force be extremely proactive and citizen-centered. There are other instances where Noblesville is leading the state in innovation and we are continually looking for ways to build an even better community.

Although our nation faces the worst economy of my generation, Noblesville continues to see economic growth. During the last few years the city has welcomed more than 200 new businesses, seen local firms expand and brought in over a dozen new corporate headquarters. Additionally,

Noblesville’s historic downtown has seen entrepreneurs partner with local government through the Façade Grant Program to sustain and grow these pillars of our community.

Communities across the nation are currently struggling with budget issues. Indiana’s municipalities have the added hurdle of meeting budgets with the new property tax caps. Noblesville is not immune to these issues, but we are in far better shape than the vast majority of communities. Noblesville recently passed a balanced budget. Current and past city leaders have built significant cash reserves allowing our community to remain in a position that the majority of other municipalities and governments envy. In a time where government spending and debt are on the news every evening, our city’s excellent fiscal position is something I am very thankful for.

Thanksgiving is a great time of year to be in gratitude. I am very thankful to have grown up in Noblesville and to be able to raise my two daughters here with my wife, Kristen. I am honored to serve this outstanding city and to help continue making this the best community to live, work and raise a family.

Noblesville firefighters endorse Ditslear, O’Connor Current in Noblesville Hamilton County Professional Firefighters Local No. 4416, which represents Noblesville’s firefighters, has endorsed Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear and Common Council District No. 5 Representative Greg O’Connor in the general election.

“During these difficult economic times in which many communities are cutting back on basic services, including such necessities as public safety, Mayor Ditslear has made up for the loss of millions of dollars in reduced revenue while keeping public safety services intact. Our members believe this has helped to keep Noblesville a safe and excellent place to live and work,” said IAFF Local 4416 President Tony Murray.

www.youarecurrent.com

With this announcement, Ditslear now has the endorsements of both Noblesville’s police officers and firefighters.

Murray added that O’Connor is a first-term incumbent who brings dedicated experience to the council with a proven record of progress for the people of this community and dedication to the mission of public safety.

“Commitment to public safety begins with a clear understanding of the issues and the challenges fire fighters face while dedicating themselves to the citizens of Noblesville, and Greg O’Connor approaches his responsibilities as a member of the Common Council with that same understanding and commitment,” he said.

Views | Community | Cover Story | Election | Diversions | Anti-Aging | Dough | Education | Laughs | Puzzles | Classifieds Meet the Mayoral Candidates What qualities or experiences do you bring to the position as mayor? I’ve served as mayor of Noblesville since 2004. I served on the Noblesville School Board and on the boards of many local nonprofit organizations including the Chamber of Commerce, Boys and Girls Club, and United Way of Hamilton County. I’ve worked extensively with the Indiana Association of Cities and Towns and served on its legislative, municipal finance and executive committees. I am a positive, honest leader with proven results.

With budget funding reductions, would you raise taxes if needed to retain current services?

If not, where would you make cuts to balance the budget? Raising taxes would be our last resort. We have worked hard to cut millions of dollars from the budget in the last few years by prioritizing, doing without whenever possible, and initiating cost reduction initiatives including reviewing and renegotiating contracts with various city vendors. Also, as employees have left their employment with the city during the last few years, they have not been replaced except in a few necessary exceptions.

What do you think is the biggest untapped resource in the community? If elected, how would you work with that resource? Noblesville’s residents are its biggest untapped resource.

Our community has excellent volunteers who help organizations such as 4-H, Scouts, Kiwanis, Rotary and Riverview Hospital, to name just a few. Many additional volunteer opportunities are available, though. We have been researching and applying for grant funding that would provide a part time volunteer coordinator to match community volunteers with opportunities to help at city events and to assist local nonprofit organizations.

How important should arts and culture be in a growing city like Noblesville? Arts and culture are important to all communities. I am proud that we offer many opportunities for residents and visitors to enjoy arts and culture in Noblesville.

We provide the annual Summer Concert Series through our Parks Department, we offer exhibit space year round in City Hall for local artists to display their work, and we partner with local organizations to help offer additional cultural programs and activities.

How would you continue to improve on the revitalization of downtown? We have spent more than $7 million dollars in the last few years

John Ditslear, Republican

Personal: My wife, Teri, and I have five children.

I’m a 45-year resident of Noblesville. I’m a member of Bethel Lutheran Church, the American Legion and the Elks Club, among others.Background: I have served as mayor since 2004.

I served in the United States Navy for two years. I’m a previous member of the Noblesville School Board and other boards of organizations such as the Noblesville Boys & Girls Club and Riverview Hospital Foundation, and many others.

Education: Bachelor’s degree in Finance from Miami University (Oxford, Ohio) Website: www.DitslearForMayor.com for downtown improvements and initiatives. We will continue to provide funding and manpower to help with events such as the Street Dance; continue the façade grant program; complete Phase 2 of the Riverwalk next year; complete additional infrastructure work to downtown such as curb and sidewalk improvements; and address other items as described in our Strategic Action Plan.

How would you address economic development in Noblesville? My administration has brought well over 2000 jobs to Noblesville in the last few years alone. We will continue to work with the Indiana Economic Development Corporation, the Hamilton County Alliance, and other organizations to pursue leads. We will continue to offer new programs and initiatives to help existing Noblesville businesses succeed and thrive. In the past year, our Economic Development Department has implemented more than two dozen such initiatives.

What do you feel the city has going for it and needs to improve? One comment about Noblesville that continually came up in last year’s Community Survey was that we are a community that supports one another and takes pride in what our city has to offer. This sense of community pride remains constant even with an 82 percent increase in our population in the past 10 years. We must continue to wisely manage and plan to ensure good jobs, infrastructure, and opportunities for all residents.

What qualities or experiences do you bring to the position as mayor? I have a strong business background and an MBA. I offer the discipline of a trained executive who is goal-oriented and competitive. I am able to connect people and ideas for the common good. I bring a concern for our neglected historic values in a community that prides itself on its heritage. I am not a politician but a public servant offering my experience and skill to benefit the community.

With budget funding reductions, would you raise taxes if needed to retain current services?

If not, where would you make cuts to balance the budget? Our taxes have risen 65 percent in the past six years and we have the highest city tax rate in the county; we can’t afford to raise taxes any further in this environment. We must run government more efficiently and avoid ill-advised business incentives like the $7 million gift to Positron. Savings will come from greater efficiency in government and a relentless commitment to giving taxpayers value for their dollars.

What do you think is the biggest untapped resource in the community? If elected, how would you work with that resource? I believe residents are our best untapped resource. They are discouraged by the exclusionary practices of the current administration, which hamper citizen participation by creating an exclusive atmosphere in City Hall. I will swing open the doors of city government, encourage residents to get involved in our affairs and help improve the community. I will encourage volunteerism and show that by just showing up and contributing people can make a difference.

How important should arts and culture be in a growing city like Noblesville? They are critically important. They help give our community character, provide valuable opportunities for our residents’ creative expression and serve as a potent economic development opportunity. We must continue to encourage Noblesville’s wellestablished visual arts community and make more progress on the performing arts. We need to look into public art and ways to make the community more visually appealing. We need to explore the idea of the performing arts center downtown.

How would you continue to improve on the revitalization of downtown? The Downtown Strategic Development Plan offers many ideas for enhancing and growing the downtown, we’re

I will make that a priority. We must improve the gateways to the city from all directions, develop the riverfront and west side of the river, and invest in the neighborhoods surrounding the Courthouse Square. We must improve our trails and address the parking issue. I will solve the sewer smell.

How would you address economic development in Noblesville? The economic development director position has been vacant for two years and the mayor says he’s doing the job. I believe Noblesville is too large a city and economic development too important to have it be a part time job for someone with bigger responsibilities. I will hire a professional, assign them the task of recruiting businesses and hold them accountable for results.

I will make it a top priority.

What do you feel the city has going for it and needs to improve? This city has incredible potential. We are the county seat of one of the wealthiest counties in the nation. We have opportunities most cities don’t have; but we need more ambition, vision and energy to help achieve that potential. We are last among Hamilton County communities in Money Magazine’s quality of life poll. We are falling behind when compared to our peers and we need to improve our performance.

Views | Community | Cover Story | Election | Diversions | Anti-Aging | Dough | Education | Laughs | Puzzles | Classifieds What qualities or experiences do you bring to the Common Council? My experience over the last four years working on the city budget, economic development activities, and traffic issues has provided me with the in depth knowledge to address challenges ahead. Further, my background in the financial services industry provides a level of expertise in financial management which is directly applicable to city budgeting and economic development. Working successfully in a team environment daily allows me to utilize these skills in addressing council issues.

With budget funding reductions, would you raise taxes if needed to retain current services?

If not, where would you make cuts to balance the budget? To date we have been successful in balancing the budget and have maintained services at current levels without tax increases. It is my mission to continue to look for ways to create greater efficiencies, so that the resulting cost savings will allow for existing services to continue unabated.

I will look for all possible alternatives, including reduction of certain services, before asking citizens for additional revenue.

How would you work with the mayor and fellow councilmen if elected? As president and chairman of various council committees, I have worked on a collaborative basis to insure all opinions and ideas are heard. This includes retreats and meetings with the administration where the communication of critical information is provided and opportunities for discussion are available. Collaboration and thorough vetting of the issues leads to positive results for taxpayers.

How important should arts and culture be in

a growing city like Noblesville? Teena and I are members of the Hamilton County Artists Association, Noblesville Cultural Arts and contributors to the Noblesville Preservation Alliance, to name a few. Having a vibrant arts community is a key component to the diversity that makes Noblesville an outstanding community for individual and corporate citizens. Downtown Noblesville is a significant part of the fabric and culture of our city and the Downtown Facade Program continues to be a successful Public-Private Partnership endeavor.

What do you feel the city has going for it and where needs it need to improve? The Community Vision for Excellence Committee survey results showed over 95 percent of respondents found the overall quality of life to be either excellent or good.

Despite the 82 percent increase in population from the last census, Noblesville continues to have its small town charm with large community amenities.

I will continue to look for ways to enhance traffic flows, bring more employment opportunities to the community and improve connectivity of our existing trail system.

Are you in favor or TIF districts? Why or why not? Tax Increment Financing is a key economic development tool providing a source of funding to attract and retain companies in the community.

TIF is repaid from tax revenues generated above the original assessed value of the property in the TIF district. Therefore, companies who are beneficiaries from the installation of new infrastructure in a TIF district also repay the cost of these improvements over time via property taxes on real and personal property purchased.

What qualities or experiences do you bring to the Common Council? I am very fiscally conservative. I understand how to make and stick to a budget in order to achieve short and long term fiscal goals. I understand how to read a balance sheet and have done so many times in my investing experience. I am an effective communicator and I work best in a team.

With budget funding reductions, would you raise taxes if needed to retain current services?

If not, where would you make cuts to balance the budget? I would not raise taxes. I would look for areas outside of fire, police and infrastructure services to make cuts. The council has employed the strategy of not replacing employees that leave and we have not seen a reduction of services as a result. The areas that are both largest and most affected by this strategy would be the areas I would look at first for making cuts.

How would you work with the mayor and fellow councilmen if elected? I would offer my views and opinions to both the mayor and the council, represent my fiscally conservative principles, produce productive discussion and work toward creating better outcomes for the city.

How important should arts and culture be in a growing city like Noblesville? Arts and culture are

very important to me personally, and I see a lot of evidence that they are important to the people of Noblesville as well. Exactly how important they are to our city is for our citizens to decide through how they create and support art and culture locally.

What do you feel the city has going for it and where needs it need to improve? Our city is safe, our infrastructure is good, our schools are highly ranked and the city is highly ranked as one of the best places to live in the country. There is much in our city that attracts both new citizens and new businesses. I think that we can improve the city further by working to steadily lower tax rates without cutting the essential services of fire, police and infrastructure.

Are you in favor or TIF districts? Why or why not? I oppose TIF districts. TIF districts bring in business through a combination of tax abatements and city issued bonds. The city speculates that the future taxes from the attracted business will pay for the abatements, the bonds and the interest on the bonds. The future is always uncertain. If the business fails, leaves or doesn’t meet future tax projections then the tax payers must pay the taxes the business was expected to pay.

How would you address economic development in Noblesville? I believe the best way to encourage

DISPATCHES » Hotels adding new fees – Following in the footsteps of the airlines, hotels are piling on hidden fees for services that used to be free. Now guests are getting charged for everything from access to a gym (or a pool), to early check-ins or departures to holding your luggage. All of those fees really add up. Total fees collected by hotels in the U.S. are projected to hit a record $1.8 billion this year, up 80 percent from a decade ago, according to a recent study by Bjorn Hanson, dean of New York University’s Preston Robert Tisch Center for Hospitality, Tourism and Sports Management.

-CNNMoney » The candy’s still good – Remember when you were a kid and your mom took your candy away a week after Halloween, claiming that it was “getting stale”? Candy bars are good for about a year, and perfectly safe for much longer than that, though less appetizing. Nuts and peanut butter will, generally speaking, get nasty sooner than pure chocolate. And those white dots that you sometimes find on older candy bars? Just little bits of fat or sugar that have bubbled to the surface over time.

Taking Time for You

Dr. Roya Mojarrad received her first certification in pediatrics from the University of Shahid Beheshti in Iran. She has since received board certification from the Indiana Your alarm is buzzing by 6 a.m. And already, you don’t even have time to hit the snooze button. You’ve masterfully planned your day to accommodate everything and everyone without a moment to spare. Nobody has been left out. Well, nobody except for you.

Putting others first is a selfless act. But when you put everyone in your life before you — all of the time — the inevitable happens: you wind up last and sometimes forgotten. So it’s important not to allow selflessness to become self-destructive. Finding time for you is a matter of health.

“It’s not uncommon for women to put themselves last in line,” said Barbara Brands, MSW, LCSW, senior counselor at St.Vincent Stress Center. “However, it’s important to remember that if you don’t take time to care for yourself, it could take a toll on your ability to care for others as well.”

Time constraints are stressful. And sometimes stress can motivate you to meet deadlines or get the kids to school on time. But, too much stress can weigh heavily on your wellbeing. When the responsibilities of your hectic day cause you to withdraw from your friends and family, lose your concentration, or swing from one mood to the next, you may want to consider some ways to decompress.

• Eat, sleep and exercise. Eating healthy, sleeping well and exercising regularly can do wonders for your mental and physical health.

• Be more assertive. Learn to say “no” without feeling guilty. Accept that you can’t do everything for everyone all of the time.

• Reward yourself. Set realistic goals and reward yourself when you achieve them. Big or small, rewards can help you stay motivated.

• Set boundaries. Knowing your limits and sticking to them will help you avoid overwhelming yourself.

Bioidentical hormone therapy: Is it right for you?

Health: A Woman’s Way

Justin Smith, MD

Sorting through your options for hormone replacement therapy is about as simple as weaving a tapestry — blindfolded. And with bioidentical hormones now being tailored to individual women’s needs, it’s even more complicated.

Bioidentical hormones are identical to hormones produced in your body. Although no large trials have taken place yet, so far they seem to work well for most women. However, they are not yet FDA-approved.

Whatever you do, be sure to remember this: Although bioidentical hormones mimic what’s in your body, just like synthetic hormones, they aren’t without risk. A smart approach would be to use a small dose for the shortest amount of time. Also, consider starting hormones sooner rather than later, as it seems to reduce risks.

Get answers to your questions about bioidentical hormones at Health: A Woman’s Way. Please see the Community Events section for all of the details.

Sweet Chili Chicken Kabobs If you tailgate with people in their 30s or younger, you’ll no doubt realize that they like hot sauces. The “Buffalo Wing” originated at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, NY, and swept the country. It was a combination of a cayenne pepper sauce (Frank’s) and butter on baked or deepfried chicken wings. This hot item revitalized the chicken industry as the demand for wings soared.

My only problem with Frank’s sauce was that it was thin. I only used it in cooking or seasoning.

Ingredients: • 1 lb. boneless chicken, cut into cubes • 2 cups cut-up fresh vegetables like red, green, yellow and orange peppers, onions, mushrooms, potatoes etc. Fruits like fresh pineapple can be used as well.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2

PG-13, 130 minutes

DVDs

By Chris Lloyd I have not always been Harry Potter’s best friend. I liked the first two movies in the series well enough. But by the third – when most observers believed the 10-year, eight-film epic journey really took things to another level – I felt like I’d seen this movie too many times already. The saga of the boy wizard and Voldemort, his mortal enemy, had become episodic and repetitive to these eyes.

But the last film, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2” was the grand payoff that I had been waiting for. No more exposition, no more new characters cluttering up the storyline, no more sense of the filmmakers dawdling – just the logical, satisfying and sweeping culmination of a long voyage.

The story picks up with Harry, Ron and Hermione returning from exile to challenge Voldemort, who’s tightened his death’s grasp on the entire wizarding world. There’s a climactic assault on Hogwarts School by Death Eaters

and their minions, a terrifying chase through a maze of dragons, and of course the epic final showdown between Harry and Voldemort.

The stakes are high, and many people die.

There’s a sense of grandiose finality to “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2.” This is the end – and what a glorious one.

teur detectives in attendance to help solve the “who-done-it” mystery. Clues will be provided as to who had the means, the motive and the opportunity, but as always, not every character will be telling the truth.

This is a fast-paced event and prizes will be rewarded for the correct and most creative answers. The program is open to all ages but is most appropriate for those over 10 years old.

The library will be closed for business and only those attending the program will be admitted.

No registration is required for this fun-filled evening of mystery.

At The Stratford we don’t have to go outside to get to our grand dining room for a delicious, hot meal. We don’t have to drive anywhere to pick out a good read from our library. No one has to hit the sidewalk to travel to the wellness center for some exercise (ours is just down the hall in the clubhouse). We don’t even have to clean up after our parties because the amazing staff here does it for us.

In short, while the rest of the area is digging out—we‘ll be living it up!

DISPATCHES » Officials back HPV vaccine for boys – The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently announced that its Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices has approved “recommendations for routine vaccination of males 11 or 12 years old with three doses of HPV4 (vaccine)” to shield against the virus. At this point the recommendation is limited to Gardasil, made by Merck. Another HPV vaccine, GlaxoSmithKline’s Cervarix, is not yet included in the advisory.

-HealthDay News » Stress linked to IBS – According to a new study, people who have experienced more trauma over their lifetimes are more likely to experience irritable bowel syndrome. This trauma can range from deaths of loved ones to divorce to disasters such as experiencing a house fire or a car accident. The exact cause of IBS is unknown, but researchers suspect that the nerves and muscles that control the bowel are to blame. Stress may over-activate the nerves that connect the brain and the gut, leading to painful and embarrassing bowel problems.

-www.livescience.com » Probiotics may lower inflammation – Probiotics, or “good bacteria,” may lower levels of inflammation in the body, which could benefit patients who have inflammatory diseases such as ulcerative colitis, a new study says. Patients with one of these conditions who took the probiotic bacteria B. infantis for eight weeks had lower levels of inflammation compared with those who took a placebo. And healthy people who took probiotics also saw a reduction in inflammation compared with those who took a placebo. The results suggest that probiotics may lower levels of inflammation, regardless of the affliction, the researchers said. However, it’s still not clear whether probiotics can actually help with symptoms of these diseases, experts say.

Best and worst natural cold and flu remedies Helpful

Omega-3 pill – If you don’t like or eat a lot of fish, pop an omega-3 supplement daily to reap the fatty acid’s impressive immune-fortifying properties. Omega-3s increase the activity of phagocytes—cells that fight flu by eating up bacteria—according to a study by Britain’s Institute of Human Nutrition and School of Medicine. Other research shows that omega-3s increase airflow and protect lungs from colds and respiratory infections. Look for purified fish oil capsules that contain at least 1 g combined of EPA and DHA. Astragalus – This Chinese root is shown to stimulate the white blood cells that fight infection. A study published in 2007 found that astragalus appears to boost immunity in mice.

And a pilot study suggests that the herb may have similar effects in people. However, keep in mind that astragalus may take six to eight weeks to reach its full effect.

Vitamin D – According to a Harvard study, people with the lowest vitamin D levels were 36 percent more likely to have upper respiratory infections, compared with those with the most D. (Asthma patients with low levels of D were nearly six times as likely to get sick as those with the greatest amounts.) Adequate amounts of D help produce cathelicidin, a protein with viruskilling qualities. Aim for at least 1,000 IU daily.

Hype

Echinacea – If taken at the start of a cold, this herb might shorten duration and severity of symptoms. But some brands don’t contain the amount of echinacea listed on the label—and some formulas have none at all. Possible side effects include wheezing, rash, and diarrhea.

Airborne – Experts say this supplement, a blend of blend of Zinc, Ginger, Echinacea and other vitamins, minerals, and herbs, does nothing to repel germs on an airplane or anywhere else. It also contains large amounts of vitamin A, which could be toxic if taken several times a day. The company was fined $23 million in a class-action lawsuit in 2008 for false advertising. It has since changed its packaging from saying it treats colds to calling the supplement simply an immune booster.

Vitamin C – There’s certainly no downside to eating a lot of C-rich foods, such as red peppers and citrus fruits. But taking a vitamin for extra protection won’t help. A 2007 review of 30 studies found no evidence that vitamin C supplementation prevents colds in the normal population. Plus, megadoses can cause kidney stones, upset stomach, and even internal bleeding in children.

Women’s Retreat raises $35k for Riverview Hospital Foundation

By Amanda Trestrail Riverview Hospital Foundation Philanthropy Officer Laughter is good for the soul as well as the body. It causes us to breathe faster, increases pulse and blood pressure, strengthens our immune system, and boosts energy levels. It is also a powerful antidote to stress, pain and conflict.

Laughter and learning is exactly what 49 women from various backgrounds and ages experienced during the Eighth Annual Women’s Retreat, a fundraiser for Riverview Hospital Foundation. The retreat was held last month at the Secrets Wild Orchid Retreat in Montego Bay, Jamaica and raised $35,864.

This annual event is designed to encourage and promote the potential of women, bring together friends, family and any woman seeking an opportunity to learn, grow and enjoy a tropical escape.

The retreat offered the women in attendance a chance to hear two great speakers, author Kathy

McHugh and Amy Banter, M.D. McHugh shared her inspirational journey through addiction to become a successful writer and survivor who now enjoys helping others with their life challenges. Banter spoke on nutrition and how a few changes can have a great impact on how a person feels physically and mentally.

In addition, the retreat provides philanthropic opportunities for women to give back to other women. A portion of the trip’s cost is designated to the Riverview Women’s Endowment Fund.

Secondly, women can join the Women of Vision Giving Club, a program dedicated to women’s health concerns. Both funds are directed towards enhancing women’s initiatives through Riverview Hospital.

For more information about next year’s Women’s Retreat or the Women of Vision Giving Club, visit www.riverview.org or contact Trish Oman at 776-7313 or toman@riverview.org.

DISPATCHES » Closed sales increase – According to a recent report from the Metropolitan Indianapolis Board of Realtors, the number of closed sales in Hamilton County increased by 27.7 percent during July to September when compared to the same months in 2010.

During July to September 2011, median sales prices in the county dropped to $210,000, a 2.7 percent decrease. During the one-month period of September 2011, median sales price decreased 3.9 percent to $197,000. Average sales price of homes in Hamilton County decreased 4.3 percent to $254,282 when compared to the same three-month period in 2011, and dropped 2.6 percent in the onemonth comparison to $243,546. » Target opening earlier – For shoppers eager to get a head start on their holiday shopping, Target is opening its doors nationwide at midnight on Black Friday. While other retailers like Toys R Us have opted to get a jump start on Black Friday by opening on Thanksgiving night in the past, for Target, which usually opens its doors at the crack of dawn on Black Friday, this is its earliest opening ever.

» Check credentials – There are nearly 176,000 people out there calling themselves financial advisors, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, with almost a quarter-million expected by 2016, and weeding through the bad apples isn’t easy. One thing to keep in mind: They’re largely unregulated. You want to look for those letters after their names. Stick to well-known programs such as CFP, CPA, CHFC, CFA. Taking an ethics pledge, among other requirements, distinguishes these advisers from the others. To put it in perspective, there were 63,601 CFP certificants as of September. In July 2011, 58 percent of the applicants passed the CFP exam the first time.

A long list of banned keywords on Sina Weibo’s search function has been uncovered and tested by the CDT team. All the listed phrases stick to one simple rule: a combination of “occupy” and a place name. In other words, the hundreds of millions of Sina Weibo users are no longer allowed to search for “occupy Beijing,” for instance.

Should I increase my limits?

INSURANCE Q&A

By Ryan Samuelson Question from Willis H. from Carmel: I tell my clients all the time about the benefits of increased limits and umbrella policies. I know it’s not costly, but could you approach the benefits from an insurance perspective?

Response from Ryan Samuelson: When we talk about increasing limits, we’re talking about liability limits. Liability limits have become a little bit more confusing because of all the options that are available. Right off the bat, I’m going to take that choice down to a yes or no question. Should you increase your liability limits from the base limits? There are reasons to say “yes” and reasons to say “no.” Let’s start with why you might choose to not increase your limits.

You probably already know the reason to not increase your limits. It’s money. If you’re choosing between putting food on the table and increasing your insurance limits, it’s a pretty easy choice. However, increasing your limits is much less expensive then you may realize. Doubling your limits may only cost a couple of dollars per month after bundling your policies and selecting the proper payment plan.

The main reason to say “yes” to increasing your liability limits also is pretty easy. It’s a great way to protect your assets, your family and yourself. Most states have mandated what the minimum liability limits will be, but those minimum limits are rarely adequate.

www.youarecurrent.com

A couple of things add to the reasons to make an increase to your liability limits. The first one is inflation. Medical costs have been sky rocketing for the last 20 years and show no signs of slowing. These trends guarantee that it’s going to be costly if you hurt someone with your vehicle or someone gets hurt on your property. Increasing your limits is a great strategy to prevent these costs from coming out of your personal assets.

Another thing to keep in mind is your level of risk. Increasing your level of risk only adds to the list of reasons you should increase your coverage limits. Keep these questions and others like them in mind when you think about your personal risks: • Do you drive car pools?

• Do you have multiple drivers in your household?

• Do you have a pool / trampoline / tree house / pond?

• Do you have a boat?

• Do you entertain guests often?

There are many things to think about and plenty of reasons to consider increasing your liability limits. As always, we recommend talking this over with your independent insurance agent to find the correct solutions for you.

Master the Art of: Walking in Heels Celebs constantly dazzle the red carpet with their sky-high heels. They tower over their dates and walk with ease (even without an arm to hold). Feel like you don't quite have the heel thing mastered? Follow our tips for making your heels work for you.

1. Be Choosy.

Just because those heels look amazing in the box doesn't mean they will feel amazing on your feet. Wedges, platforms, and inserts will be your best friend during this transition process. If you are new to this look, don't pick the highest stilettos, and make sure your first few pairs have an ankle or t-strap to keep your foot secure.

2. Practice Posture.

From your head to your toes, keep your spine erect. Focus on keeping your neck and head high, not looking at your feet.

Balance your weight evenly on both feet and try to shift your weight naturally each time you take a step. A natural swing in your arms will help to shift that weight and keep your balance.

3. Practice Perfect.

To challenge yourself and break in the shoes try walking only on carpet. If you can master this uneven surface, tile and wood will be a no-brainer.

Enjoy!

Jolted by jean trauma LAUGHS

By Mike Redmond I had to buy some new jeans the other day, which was traumatic in more ways than one.

Perhaps it’s a symptom of the complex world in which we live. Maybe it’s a reflection of the ever-changing nature of our human population.

Or possibly people in the jeans industry simply don’t have enough to do. At any rate, jeansbuying has become very confusing.

First you have to figure out which brand to buy. In my youth, the answer was simple: Levis..

There were other brands, of course, chiefly Wrangler and Lee, and then there were the store brands. Woe to the kid who came to school in a stiff pair of store-brand jeans. At recess, he’d be left standing at the doorway. Of course, that might also have been because the jeans weren’t broken in yet and he couldn’t move his legs.

These days, you must sort through a bewildering array from a variety of manufacturers, ranging from people who have always been in the jeans business to people who make jeans as a sideline. And you don’t have the playground fashion guidelines to help you.

Then you have to choose what kind of jeans to get: Skinny cut? Loose cut? Big-butt cut?

High waist? Low waist?

Traumatic if you’re me, and you have a bad

28 | November 8, 2011

association with jeans-buying expeditions when your Mom marched you to the saleslady in the boys’ department, pointed to the selection of non-Levis, and said “He needs something in a size six. Husky.”

Husky. The size for fat boys. The way my fat-phobic mother said it, “Husky,” sounded criminal. She might just as well have asked for a size-six ax murderer.

That’s where the jeans trauma comes in. I start looking for jeans and my brain locks up knowing I am going to be presented with about 246 jeans possibilities, none of which will be completely right for me. I end up making my jeans selection by employing the time-honored eeenie-meenie-miney-mo method. I end up with a pair of uncomfortable pants trying to strangle me, another kind of trauma altogether.

The other day, I went through the traumatic jeans-shopping adventure. Jeans, the most utilitarian of clothing, have gotten ridiculously costly, especially the ones I chose: The underthe-gut cut.
