“I am happy as can be! It is wonderful to have no back pain after the Laser Treatments from Dr. Srini”………

Robert Russell who is still back pain free at 8 months after treatment, is the world’s first patient to receive the minimally invasive Deep Tissue Low Intensity Laser Therapy (DT-LILT™) for failed back surgery syndrome. DT-LILT™ involves a new contact laser device for selectively destroying the C pain fibers while leaving the healthy tissues intact. DTLILT™ is invented by Dr. Srini and is first of its kind in the world. DT-LILT™ is NOT FDA approved and is available only at Advanced Interventional Pain Center.

“ I would say the future of pain care is here. With terrible leg pain I had hardly played any golf for the last 2 years. After getting just one treatment from Dr. Srini, I cannot believe that I completed the entire 18 holes with absolutely no pain ”…..

Otis Oliver, after permanent pain relief from peripheral vascular pain. He does not require surgery.

“ I had severe tail bone pain and sciatica after falling on a hard object. For five years I had suffered in severe pain visited many treatment facilities and have spent over $ 60,000 in treatments without any pain relief. I am simply delighted that after just one treatment I am pain free”….. Barbara Wolfe, one year after treatment.

“My knees are 100% pain free without surgery after Dr. Srini’s treatment and I feel 10 years younger!”.........

“ Over three years I have suffered from terrible headaches, I also had low back pain. I was told there was no hope for my pain condition and was put on addictive medications that affected my everyday functioning. I am simply delighted that I am pain free after 3 treatments by Dr. Srini who explained the science behind my pain condition. He has proven that my incurable pain condition was indeed curable! ”….. Edwina Foust after receiving permanent pain relief from headaches.

My name is Vicki Hinkle. I have struggled with foot pain for many, many years. I have had treatment and surgery from several very experienced, sympathetic doctors over the years with some results. As time went on the foot pain increased to the point to cause life style changes. I enjoyed outdoor hiking, long walks with loved ones and occasionally a day of shopping with friends. I had accepted with sadness; the reality those days were gone. A family member had gone to Dr. Srinivasan for back pain and had experienced wonderful results. I was encouraged to inquire about possible help with my foot pain. I had wonderful results in less than a week after my treatment by Dr. Srinivasan. It has now been several months; I am still pain free. I am able to exercise, accomplished weight loss and enjoy outdoor activities once again. I encourage anyone dealing with pain of any kind to schedule a consultation with Dr. Srinivasan and decide for yourself. The options available to you may give you some of your life back too!

INDIVIDUAL RESULTS WILL VARY. Advanced Interventional Pain Center is the nation’s only pain center to have consistently over 90% pain treatment success rates 4 years in a row. Advanced Interventional Pain Center promotes innovative minimally invasive treatments for long term pain relief without surgery or addictive medications. Advanced Interventional Pain Center aims to reduce healthcare spending by preventing ER visits, Surgical Treatments and Hospitalizations because of Chronic Pain.

Bailout buyout Founded Sept. 15, 2009, at Noblesville, IN Vol. II, No. 9 Copyright 2009. Current Publishing, LLC All Rights Reserved.

OUR VIEWS

It is our position that while the Federal Government’s bailout of General Motors is riddled with ethical, Constitutional and other significant challenges, it may prove to be financially acceptable. Specifically, the $82 billion bailout for GM, Chrysler and other participants in the automotive sector executed under the Obama administration may attest as the better of two difficult choices: allow the companies to fold and liquidate or attempt a short-term capital infusion.

While the jury is still out on Chrysler, at GM the bailout seems to have turned a highly bureaucratic, slow-moving and inflexible operation into a profitable company about to announce its second straight quarter of profits and looking towards repaying the taxpayers’ investment in full. Clearly, some of the decisions made along the way, especially in regards to how the GM bankruptcy was handled and who benefited most remain controversial – specifically concerning unions. But many believe that the private sector could not absorb the jobs lost and the impact to other suppliers on the remaining and financially stable automaker, Ford Motor Company.

In the light of day, we urge Congress to take up the issue of future policies addressing bailouts now and not when the next crisis emerges.

Energy independence

It is our position, not surprisingly, that we must reduce our dependence on foreign oil and the existing decades-old configuration of the internal combustion engine.

But we fear that Federal Government subsidies for alternative energy sources like wind, solar and bio fuels are unlikely to produce an ultimate solution. All are expensive and doubtful to satisfy a significant percentage of our energy needs. And while bio fuels assuredly exacerbate CO2 production, there is debate about whether they produce a net energy gain.

We urge that the free market decide the source of energy for our future economy. Government bureaucrats are rarely successful entrepreneurs.

How can shifting money via taxes away from wage earners and business to prop up operations that produce energy that is not competitive on the open market be a benefit? Has full consideration been given to the expansion of nuclear generation of electrical power and the use of hydrogen powered fuel cells? Neither produce greenhouse gases, and both are available in near limitless supply. Many issues must be resolved – notably the disposal of spent nuclear material but it seems early in the game for the Federal Government to pick favorites.

Rosie finds her ‘place’ in our home

From the backshop Noblesville Rotary honored, contributing Noblesville Rotary Club members, take a well-deserved bow! The burgeoning club recently was lauded by the Rotary Foundation for being one of 699 Rotary organizations (out of more than 34,000 around the globe) to exemplify bigheartedness in getting behind the Annual Programs Fund. As the club continues to evolve, it more immerses itself in the community, and next week will bring a prime example of how the members do it.

To get things rolling on the recent founding of Dillon Park’s Rotary Memorial Arboretum, members will plant trees. Club member David Willis (877.2400) will take orders from folks wishing to have trees planed in honor of, or in memory of, others. We love that they’re doing and the impact they’re making. As we discussed previously in this space following a visit to the club, we urge you to join forces with these difference makers that meet each Thursday morning at Culver’s on Ind. 32. The coffee’s on at 7:30. At least pay a visit and see what you’re missing.

••• It was interesting to us, in the wake of the Republicans’ swoop in to U.S. House of Representatives control last week, that the

Brian Kelly & Steve Greenberg underdog Libertarian Party of Indiana will maintain ballot access for four more years.

That is based on gaining 6 percent of the vote in the secretary of state race in the general election; Mike Wherry earned 100,847 votes, the highest number of votes cast for a single “L” candidate in the state’s history.

Automatic ballot access is critical to maintaining the state’s only third party. It may not have been enough to make a dent or headlines, necessarily, but in our view it is significant. It means for the first time more than 100,000 people said, “Enough with government as it is. We want and need real change.”

In time, we hope that happens.

Commentary

By Zach Dunkin A few weeks ago I visited the Humane Society of Hamilton County, intending to do my part in reducing the crowded shelter’s cat population of nearly 600.

As I have mentioned several times, I am not a Noblesville resident but adore this town and have always wanted to take a little piece of it home with me. Adopting a Noblesville cat seemed like a good idea.

So, after having breakfast at Rosie’s Place on the square, my wife and I headed to Pleasant Street to search for a calico kitten, a playmate for Izzy, the year-old calico we already had at home in Indy. There were about a half dozen from which to choose but none of them “seemed just right,” as my wife put it. She’s 6-0 when it comes to choosing our dogs and cats through the years, so I offered no argument.

Still, I felt miserable the rest of the day. Not only did I not get my living piece of Noblesville but it was heartbreaking to see so many cats needing homes.

A week later my wife and I decided to spend the day in Noblesville, starting with breakfast at Rosie’s Place again before shopping on the square and walking the bricked streets of Old Town and then heading east of the city to Nurpu’s for a pair of low-cut hiking boots. Merry Christmas to me.

If, on the other hand, you empathized with my plight or merely nodded and thought, “That must be hard,” I’d bet my mini-van you’re a mother or therapist. You understand that women oftentimes just need to clear their heads by vocalizing their concerns, and in fact, want no assistance at all in solving their problems. They just want someone to listen, hold their hands, and wait patiently for them to “get it all out.”

All I can hear is the sound of my youngest screaming at her sister, my eldest’s whiney queries as to the nature of dinner, my nine-year old’s shouted requests for help in locating a soccer cleat, and his twin’s begging to “Come upstairs and see what I’ve done to my room!” There are backpacks and shoes and jackets strewn across the living room floor, bowls of Waffle Crisp and Honey Nut Cheerios left for dead on the counter, and various textbooks, pencils, and folders abandoned on the kitchen table.

Why have I gone back to work? On days like these, I honestly don’t know. The house is in total disarray, I’m exhausted, and I have a headache the size of Montana. All I really want to do is go to bed. “Oh how I long for the sweet release that sleep will bring!” But wait. I’m a

Bounce Planet out of this world for out-of-house parties Commentary

By Leslie Webber There are few things I love to do more than entertain. Once we had children I spent loads of time planning their birthday parties. We’ve hosted everything from construction-themed parties to fashion shows. As the children aged, the parties got louder and messier. The shine starts to fade when you’re scraping blue icing off the couch.

When our son turned five, we invited his entire preschool class over for an outdoor party. Who knew it would be rainy and 55 degrees at the end of May? We wound up with 22 children running through our house. In the midst of the party, I informed my husband I was hanging up my hostess apron, at least for the school-aged set.

We’ve since discovered the beauty of off-site birthday parties. So far, the favorite among our family is Bounce Planet (1710 Pleasant Street). We love it for a number of reasons, but I have to admit the main appeal to me is I just show up with a cake. That’s it! The hardest part is finding the place.

If you aren’t familiar with Bounce

6 | November 9, 2010

Planet, they offer multiple bounce houses, slides, and interactive inflatable games. Bounce Planet has fun down to a science and has survived as its former competitors closed their doors. It’s our good fortune the sole survivor happens to be in our town!

During parties, a party host takes the kids from one room to the next and wears them out completely, while the moms and dad have a chance to chat.

When the guests can no longer feel their legs, they’re escorted to a party room for cake and presents. The party host cuts and serves the cake and even records the gifts in order to make it easier to write the all-important thank you notes. I love being able to be in the moment and not worrying about anything but our kids enjoying their day.

'The world is yours; be the one who stands out' Commentary

By Krista Bocko I’ve always loved words. They amaze me in that, when strung together like beads on a string, they can form lovely, complete, and succinct works of art.

There are so many strings of words (aka quotes) that speak to me, and I collect them like crazy. Here are some words that I love, with the theme of living an authentic life.

First, this thought from American poet Clarissa Pinkola Estes, author of “Women Who Run with the Wolves:” “The world is yours. Be, if you like, the one who stands out. The one who goes where others do not. The one in the picture to be circled in red as ‘not likely to be found here.’

Like any Aunt Edna. Anywhere. Any time.

“You were born free. Take it back. Take it all back. It is fine that you take up plenty of space on planet earth. Despite addled nay-sayers to the contrary, it always has been so that you were meant to be.”

And these thoughts from American business magnate and inventor, Steve Jobs, co-founder and chief executive officer of Apple: “Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.

Current in Noblesville

Aunt Edna is the one ‘not likely to be found here.’

“Your time is limited, so, don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma , which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.”

No, those aren’t my words but I wish I had written them because they certainly speak to me.

It’s a dirty job, and some of us prefer to do it Commentary

By Brenda Alexander In the 1980 comedy “Caddyshack,” when Danny tries to tell Judge Smails his sob story about not being able to afford college, Smails responds, “Well, the world needs ditch diggers, too.”

A while back, a college professor friend was struggling with his career. He told me he was having a repetitive dream about shoveling dirt.

My mind immediately flashed to this scene from “Caddyshack.” He did not react well to my rather inappropriate laughter or my interpretation of his dream.

I maintain, however, that his subconscious preferred digging ditches.

My mind frequently ponders both of these scenes. And I think I’m now ready to unearth my theory that there are essentially two types of jobs in this world. The first requires that you bathe before you clock in; the second requires that you bathe after you clock out.

The really surprising thing is that I think I prefer the latter type.

I grew up on a farm. I was five when I got my first paid job picking rocks out of my father’s

www.youarecurrent.com

fields. The rocks, which could damage equipment if not removed, heaved to the surface every spring after the thaw. My older siblings and I rode on a low flatbed wagon pulled behind a tractor, jumping off to retrieve any rock bigger than a grapefruit, which was about all I could carry.

Bathing afterwards was a necessity. As an adult, most of my jobs have been the “bathe beforehand” type.

But there’s a trade-off. If your employer expects physical labor, your mind is free to range wherever it wants. If your employer hires you for your mind, your body has to come with it.

Neither is free. And modern communication tools such as texting and e-mail enslave the mind even on the weekends.

With all the demands our modern white collar jobs expect of us, I bet a lot more people are dreaming of nice, quiet dirt.

Historic homes of Noblesville Location: 1082 Maple Avenue Owners: The Dawson family Style and history: Built in 1909, this home is an American Foursquare, aptly named because of its shape and floor plan. The two-story home has wide eaves, a hipped roof, and a wide front porch. The house, along with the home next to it, was built as a rental by Mary Craycraft, widow of Daniel Craycraft, who owned what is now known as the Victorian House and Carriage House, at 1095 Conner Street.

As a makeup artist, the seven-year Noblesville resident hides the nastiest of blemishes and takes the sheen off a bald man’s scalp – even in the super-tech world of HD TV. “You can see every little pore with HD,” says Bly-Lake, owner of Noblesville-based Bly Production Services. “It really freaked out the news people.”

As a teleprompter operator, she makes politicians “look like they know what they are talking about.” Although viewers may think these guys memorize all that stuff, in reality, they are reading a scripted speech posted on a teleprompter, an electronic device that displays visual text in lieu of cue cards. “It can be pretty intense because you are constantly keeping the words on the teleprompter where their eyes are,” explained Bly-Lake of the technique. “It’s an art.”

The goal of each task is to make it appear as if it were no task at all. A successful makeup job is one that doesn’t look like one. And when it comes to reading a script or speech, the viewer has no clue it’s being read.

“By doing both the makeup and the teleprompter, I can make them look good AND sound good all in one package,” said Bly-Lake, who lives in a restored, 1895 farmhouse on Noblesville’s southwestside. “Doing both is unusual.

I was one of the first, and there still aren’t that many out there.”

Bly-Lake majored in telecommunications and minored in theater at Ball State. Seeking an acting career, she moved to Los Angeles and did her internship at ABC, where she played on the long-running soap opera, “General Hospital,” and did a few commercials before moving to the production side.

Her double-talent has opened doors to a world of entertainment, business, politics, medicine and real-life situations. Her list of celebrity clients includes Colts QB Peyton Manning, ex-Pacer Reggie Miller, rockers Steven Tyler of Aerosmith and John Mellencamp and actors Patty Duke, Jane Alexander and Charlton Heston. She’s done makeup and teleprompter work numerous times for Gov. Mitch Daniels.

The personable mother of two says her ability to chit-chat with almost anyone and make them feel comfortable is one reason production companies frequently

give her a call. She brings a relaxed modus operandi to the set.

“It’s kinda like going to the barber,” she explained. “People just like to spill everything that is going on in their lives. People who are normally inapproachable will talk to me like they’ve known me all of their lives.

“When you are doing their makeup, you are in their personal space, and I think it makes them feel better if they feel like they know you better.”

In addition to gaining access to the stars, Bly-Lake’s skills take her to behind-closed-doors operations usually shut away from the general public, whether it be the maze of decaying catacombs beneath Indy’s downtown streets, an automobile factory or a hospital. It’s a different location or studio nearly every day.

“It puts me in a lot of situations where I learn a lot of things the average person doesn’t get to see or do or hear,” she said. “It gets me into certain labs and factories where things are made ….access to the nooks and crannies of life and to the lifestyles a lot of people don’t have privy to.

“It certainly beats going to an office every day.”

Jennifer , the makeup artist

Jennifer, the teleprompter operator

• “The lights we use are very harsh, and if I don’t put makeup on right, it can make a huge difference. A person without makeup will look very washed out, almost ill. The lights will cause shadows so you have to add in under the eyes and embellish certain areas.”

• “The biggest trick to make it look like they are not made up … natural. They can actually leave the set and go out in public in daylight, and, unless you really look closely, you really can’t tell. A lot of men I make up choose to leave it on. And some of the women are so thrilled because they’ve never been made up before. “ • “It’s something you can either do or can’t do. I can look at somebody and know right away, ‘Okay, those are the colors I am going to need.’ I can’t explain that. The colors just come to me.”

• “I own my teleprompter, so, in addition to saving on rent, I know my own equipment, what it can do and troubleshoot any problems, and production companies like that.”

• “I enter the script into my laptop which sends the signal to the prompter, which can either be sitting on a stand or attached to the camera. When it’s on the camera, there’s a two-way glass mirror which the camera can see through the words which are visible only to the talent on the other side. That way the talent is looking directly into the lens. “ • “The person reading is actually in control of how fast or slow it goes. Once I determine what their speed is I have to stay with them and make certain the right amount of words are on the screen. If they slow up or go off on some tangent and come back, I have to be prepared for it, especially if were a doing it live. It’s not that easy.”

Teenagers are nocturnal, an impractical habit Commentary

By Jenna Larson Whether it’s weekends or, recently, fall break, I’ve noticed that I put off going to bed for as long as possible. I don’t allow myself to brush my teeth and slip under the covers until I literally cannot keep my eyes open any longer.

And it’s not like I’m actually doing anything worthwhile, either. Sometimes it’s Facebook creeping.

The other night, I had intentions of simply uploading a few pictures on Facebook from a Halloween party. I ended up going through an old fan page that I had posted a whole bunch of comments on in middle school. By the time I was done, it was two hours past midnight.

Whoops.

Other times, it’s just talking. My primitive little Verizon flip phone has clocked almost seven hours in a single day before. I know. It’s bad.

But I just can’t shut myself up. That’s when I get a call at 10 p.m. with intentions of talking for a half hour, but instead end up not going to bed until early morning.

There are other times when I’m just writing.

If I break out a notebook and my favorite blue pen, I can entertain myself for quite some time.

I’ll start scribbling down sentences and not look up again until I glance at my alarm clock and convince myself that I have to stop before the sun comes up.

But other teenagers aren’t so innocent. I know they have the same habit.

The other night, I was talking on the phone when I lost signal for a full 10 minutes. After becoming extremely aggravated and posting a status about it on Facebook, I had a handful of “likes” and comments in a matter of minutes.

So, teenagers are major night owls. But I’m not really sure why.

One could get so much more done by going to bed at a decent hour and waking up earlier.

The thing is, teenagers have never been practical. Late bedtimes are just another example.

Jenna Larson is a junior at Noblesville High School and is opinions editor for The Mill Stream.

Child molestation doesn’t just happen PARENTING

By Becky Kapsalis I don't know about all of you but I'm pretty disgusted hearing of, yet another, child molestation case discovered in Hamilton County.

The Halloween weekend produced an internet child molestation case. The man, 29 years old, was arrested on preliminary charges of sexual battery of a 12-year-old girl. They met on the internet and the jerk admitted to knowing the girl was just 12, and the girl admitted to agreeing to meet this jerk. She rode her bike to the meeting place and, willingly, got in his car where he drove her to be molested.

Three questions come to my mind. What kind of parents/guardians raised this man to be an indecent person? What kind of parents allow a 12-year-old to have unsupervised access to the internet? What does it tell us about the child who willingly subjects herself to abuse?

In both cases, the man and the girl were and are neglected individuals. This does not excuse their disgusting behavior but it sheds light on the fact that their parents need to suffer some of the consequences of that neglect.

For the 29-year-old creep, his parents/guard-

10 | November 9, 2010

ians should be court ordered to go through a decency course to understand that all behaviors are need driven and all behaviors are learned from someone-mostly parents. A child doesn't suddenly become a child molester at age 29.

Somewhere along the lines of growing up he gave his parents plenty of clues that things weren’t quite decent. They neglected him and neglected the clues.

Same thing for the young victim: her parents/guardians need to be court ordered to go through a child raising course to get them to recognize that their child has been neglected to the point that she has to turn to alternative methods of feeling loved or that sexual activity gives her control over unfair demands being made on her.

To neglect a child is to spit in the face of the human race. Pay attention!

Multi-use prep bowls save time in the kitchen

Where I Dine

RESTaurant

COOKING

By Jennifer Jacobi Prep bowls are just simply necessary in the kitchen and around the house When cooking or baking, prep bowls are the ideal size for holding your chopped onions, grated cheese, cup of flour, egg whites, etc. They are perfect to fill with your recipe ingredients the night or morning before you make your recipe so when you are ready to cook or bake you can just dump in your items and go, which helps organize and streamline the cooking process.

The prep time is what takes the most effort anyway, and for those who are not particularly fond of cooking and spending too much time in the kitchen, these little gems are the way to go.

No more missing an ingredient or not having enough of something only to realize it halfway into the recipe.

Prep bowls generally come in 1 or 2 cup sizes and are great for storing leftovers, are the perfect size for an ice-cream bowl and are fabulous little individual dessert cups for a chocolate mousse or butterscotch pudding. The kids love them because they are just their size when having a bowl of cereal or an afternoon snack.

They come in handy when melting small amounts of butter and chocolate in the microwave and can be used to hold your salsa or veggie dip.

When looking for the perfect prep bowls

Karen Brecheisen

make sure that they are: • Microwave, oven, freezer and dishwasher safe (look for ones made of glass) • Have a lid, for easy storage, stacking in the refrigerator and transportation.

• Have measure marks etched into the sides.

• Have the space-saving ability to nest into each other, without the lids on.

There are plenty of uses for these little bowls around the house, too. Use them as a coin or button collector, a candy dish, to hold small toy or game pieces or fill them with potpourri to set in your bathroom. Most importantly they will come in really handy when entertaining this holiday season so you can spend more quality time with your friends and family.

Beware of travel deals gone wild!

TRAVEL

By Tracy Line Three-day cruises for $150? Hotel rooms for 40 percent off? Sometimes travel deals sound too good to be true. And sometimes, they are.

So, how do you know when a deal is really a deal? Simply put, use your noggin.

If it looks too good to be true: • Be skeptical. Can you really sail through the Bahamas and eat all you want for $50 a day? Well, sort of. Cruise lines advertise their base rates for a cruise ship cabin, but there are additional fees and taxes. So,while you can sometimes get a three-night cabin for a $150 per person, when you add in the extras, the total is closer to $500-600 per cabin (even so, $165-200 a night for isn’t too bad). And then there’s the flight to get you there. Bottom line? Get your final figures before you pack dig your bikini.

• Be reasonable. Marketing deals are meant to pique our attention. But one must always consider fair market value. A flight advertised for $59 isn’t getting you to California and back. Instead, it’s probably

a one-way fare, only out of select cities, with restrictions attached. Traveling round trip, with taxes and fees, said flight is probably around $130. While over double the amount advertised, it’s still a reasonable price.

• Beware. I once priced out a hotel promotion only to find out it was more expensive than the hotel’s regular nightly rate. Always compare your deal with other promotions.

And if you see a deal that really sounds too good to be true, check out a travel company’s legitimacy at the Better Business Bureau (www.bbb.org). For more information and tips on travel, visit www. travelsense.org.

Travel promotions are just that, promotions.

Do your homework, maintain realistic expectations and understand that there is no free lunch.

Twinkie craving? Make your own RECIPES

By Molly Herner Here is a fun idea using a basic cake mix and a delicious whipped pastry cream. These two easy ingredients combine to make a homemade version of an American favorite, the Twinkie!

Be sure to use the recipe on the cake mix box that calls for egg white only. This allows for a fluffier Twinkie.

You also will need a cake pan designed for

small loaves to bake inside. These are the kind of pans you might use for small corn bread or banana bread loaves. If you can’t find one with a small rectangular shape, use any shape you like.

A REASON TO SMILE

Molly Herner, is the baker/pastry chef at Matteo’s Ristorante Italiano.

You may email her at odette05@ aol.com. most insurances accepted and financing available

homemade twinkies Ingredients • 1 basic white cake mix • 1 quart heavy whipping cream • 4 eggs, 1 whole and 3 whites for cake mix • Vegetable oil, for cake mix • 1 teaspoon vanilla • 1 cup sugar • 1 container mascarpone cheese.

Instructions 1. Prepare the white cake mix.

2. Pour the cake batter into the cake pan and bake for the amount of time specified on the box.

3. For the pastry cream whip together 1 whole egg and 1 cup sugar until very light and fluffy.

4. Slowly add the heavy cream, and as the cream thickens, increase the speed of the mixer gradually.

5. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and bring the mixer speed down to add the container of mascarpone cheese.

6. Whip the pastry cream until it forms very stiff peaks, or for about 3 minutes on high.

7. When the cakes have cooled, use the rounded end of a wooden spoon or a wooden dowel to poke a hole long ways through the mini loaf of cake.

8. Use a pastry bag and tip to squeeze the pastry cream into the cake and continue until all the “twinkies” are filled.

9. Dust with a bit of powdered sugar and served chilled.

HEALTH

By Carol Rossetti, N.D. I’ve sounded over and over the importance of taking a well- tested fish oil, and the results of not doing so can be dangerous to devastating.

If you are pregnant, it is vital that you include a good Omega 3 fish oil high in DHA in your diet. It feeds the brain and central nervous system of the developing child.

If you have a cardiovascular condition, it is equally vital that you take a high quality Omega 3 fish oil high in EPA, as this is the portion that nourishes the heart and circulatory system.

If you have any kind of inflammatory condition including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, fibromyalgia, or arthritis, Omega 3 fish oils can dramatically lower your pain levels.

So, why is testing important? Dioxins, lead, mercury, food dyes (I call them crayons) are why. You don’t have a deficiency of heavy metals or crayons in your body.

According to the WHO (World Health Organization), dioxins are industrial pollutants and highly toxic to the human body.

Dioxins cause cancer. So, if you are pregnant, why would you want your developing baby to have this pollutant?

Lead is dangerous in adults and even moreso in children. Damages include harm to the child’s brain, behavior problems, slow growth in children and reproductive problems, high blood pressure, nerve disorders, memory and muscle and joint pain in adults.

Mercury goes directly to the brain and central nervous system of the child and is the main reason it is have been removed in most children’s vaccines, though not from flu shots.

I conducted a seminar 33 years ago on the devastating effects of feeding children food dyes; it’s not new information.

There are only two companies who make an Omega 3 fish oil I would take myself, suggest you take, or have my daughters and grandsons take. They are not created equal.

When you are eating salmon, choose only Alaskan, coho, or wild and never Atlantic or farm-raised because they are fed dyes to give them color.

This is the fourth of a series of articles on the impact of the expiring Bush tax cuts.

By Brenda Alexander Current in Noblesville At the core of any discussion about extending beyond 2010 the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act (EGTRRA) of 2001 and the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act (JGTRRA) of 2003, often referred to as the Bush Tax Cuts, is the question of whether cutting spending or increasing taxes is the right approach to balancing the budget and reducing debt.

Here are some facts: • The current administration predicts extending these tax policies will cost $3.5 trillion over the next 10 years.

• Opposition asserts the “cost” is $0, as they are a neutral continuation of existing tax policy wherein not extending them is tantamount to a tax increase.

• The 2000 CBO budget projections, made prior to the EGTRRA and JGTRRA even being proposed, forecasted total revenues of $2.7 trillion for 2007. CBO reported actual revenues for 2007 at $2.6 trillion - strongly indicating that EGTRRA and JGTRRA did not reduce tax revenue in the past and will not in the future.

» More shoppers conduct online research – Research shows 58 percent of adults have done research online about the products and services they buy, and about 25 percent have posted comments or reviews online about the things they buy. On a typical day, 21 percent of adults search for product information online. This is an increase from 15 percent in 2007 and 9 percent in 2004.

-www.smari.com » Fischer Homes to build 2011 Centerpiece – Fischer Homes has been chosen as the Centerpiece Home builder for the 2011 Indianapolis Home Show. Designed and fullyconstructed by the Fischer Homes team, the 2011 Centerpiece Home will be built entirely inside Exposition Hall at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. Fischer Homes will be showcasing its Keller floor plan as the Centerpiece Home with the Arts & Crafts exterior, a unique light-filled solarium with 13 ft. ceiling height and 3,467 square feet of living space.

• Analysts believe these tax cuts did not reduce revenue because they also promoted overall growth of the economy, essentially making a bigger GDP pie from which more revenue is generated even when the tax rate stays the same.

• Annual deficits are funded by new borrowing, which is similar to someone making minimum payments on their credit cards while continuing to make new purchases, incurring higher balances and increased interest and fees.

• Tax revenues have historically averaged 18 percent of the GDP. Spending is expected to be 26.5 percent of GDP ongoing. If congress is spending 8.5 percent above historical levels of revenue, increased taxes alone will not reduce the deficit.

• Assuming the cost of extending the cuts is $3.5 trillion, and assuming cuts could be made to all mandatory and discretionary spending (excluding required debt payments), a cut in spending of 6.8 percent over 10 years would offset the full extension of the cuts over the same period.

Located inside the American Legion Post on Conner Street, with no major signage, Carrie Courtney realizes the challenge she faces in getting customers inside the hall to try the homemade dishes prepared by her brother Cass.

But the philosophy at the family-owned and operated Courtney’s Kitchen is “fix it and they will come.” “It’s already grown from word of mouth,” said Carrie, co-owner with Cass. “We’ll serve good, homemade comfort food with good service and people will find out about us.”

“It’s always been a dream of my dad’s and my brother’s to own their own restaurant,” said Carrie. “They were not using a kitchen here. So, my dad talked to the post and said, ‘It would be a win-win situation if we could raise money for you guys by leasing the kitchen.’”

Courtney’s specializes in comfort foods like meatloaf, chicken and noodles and fried chicken (fried in a cast iron skillet) with daily specials. Sandwiches are priced $3 to $5. Appetizers include Carrie’s own homemade salsa with chips. Breakfast is served all day. There’s free lunch delivery from 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. and there’s a catering service.

Co-owners: Carrie and Cass Courtney Address: 1094 Conner St., Noblesville (in the American Legion Post No. 45).

When something stops us in our tracks – research GENEALOGY

By Darla Kinney Scoles Yesterday I had the chance to be on-scene with a friend’s mother who had fallen in her front yard and face-planted on a cement sidewalk as she walked to her car. As we waited for the ambulance (yes, it was that bad) to come and paramedics to administer to her, she lamented that this turn of events involved really bad timing.

“Everything was going so well,” she said, sighing. “Why did this have to happen now?”

Two things popped immediately into my head. First, is there ever a good time to crack your knee cap or your forehead? Second – having grown up with a mother who had this as a common mantra – everything happens for a reason.

I had the opportunity to give my mother’s words back to her a few years ago when she tripped over the open dishwasher door and fractured her shoulder. She was so busy, she complained. This was going to end all that for a while. Exactly, I pointed out.

Sometimes, it seems, life throws us a curve that slows us down. Way down. Sometimes

www.youarecurrent.com

it stops our physical activity all together.

These times are not cursed. They are full of opportunity.

The times we find ourselves unable to run around are the very times we can focus on activities that don’t require such movement. Without these times, how much energy and attention do we give these projects of our own free will?

Exactly.

So, the next time you find yourself restricted from your “usual” activities (This coming winter, perhaps? When a bad cold takes hold?), take the opportunity to spend time on a less-strenuous endeavor – like family history research.

Work on the family photo album. Write in your journal. Begin your personal memoir. Visit genealogy websites.

You knew that was coming, right?

true hue anti-fade shampoo Tr ue Hue A nti-Fade Shampoo: 10 fl oz . $ 13.00: I ndulge in a daily mois tur iz ing, z e ro s ulfate s hampoo. A nti-fade s hampoo re vitaliz e s c olor w ith re ne w e d r adianc e and w e lc ome s a s ilky s mooth finis h.

1.The right shampoo. Have a professional recommend what is best for your hair type. Helpful Hint: More is not better. All you need is a nickel-sized amount. Start at the scalp and work towards the ends.

2. Don’t forget to condition! Conditioners can help repair heat and chemical damage and can help protect your hair from future damage.

3. Find a good brush. A higher quality hairbrush with boar bristles will cause less damage than one with synthetic bristles.

4. Shine on by applying a small amount of shine serum to your hair right before you walk out the door. This helps create the polished look you receive when you visit your salon. Try Salon 01’s silkening serum.

5 Dry shampoo is a must for every product wardrobe!

This helps your hair stay clean and oil free without the need of jumping in the shower. Perfect for a touchup after the gym.

6. A quality blow dryer is a must! Never underestimate the difference a professional blow dryer can make.

7. Pick the proper styling aid! For fine hair, a volumizing mousse such as Salon 01’s mousse boost gives the perfect pick-me-up for your hair. Got coarse hair?

Choose a straightening balm to calm down the frizz.

8. Looking for smoother hair? A silkening serum with natural almond and jojoba oil helps protect and smooth your hair, no matter the texture! Check out Aquage Silkening Oil. 9. Hot tools are in! Rollers, curling irons and flat irons are an easy way to get that polished or messy look you are going for. Remember: Choose a tool recommended by a professional stylists. Chances are their recommendation is made with ceramic which will help cut back on the damage caused by heat.

10.Finish off your ‘do with a good hairspray! Hairspray not only holds your style in place but protects it from humidity. Use a soft flexible hold to ensure you don’t end up with a “helmet head” effect.

Relax!

Themes of the remodel 2010

REMODELING

By Randy Sorrell One of our final projects this year reflected familiar themes for 2010. Themes of business in general and family specifically where conservative budgets are married with great visions of how to improve our lifestyles and homes without busting the bank account to do it. We still desire the full package, but are willing to retrofit existing decks, patios, landscapes and interior rooms to get there. Modest self participation with a shovel or paintbrush is still in vogue and the art of price negotiation has caused more pain than I care to visit.

CONSUMER & BUSINESS OWNER GUIDANCE The National Federation of Independent Business notes that a 1 percent price reduction to the consumer typically results in an 8 percent reduction in operating profit. Fortunately, the converse is also true. My seasoned guidance to both savvy consumers and hungry business owners is to be mindful when negotiating.

Also, be prepared for escalating prices in the first quarter of 2011 as demand, both here and abroad, directly impact the cost of goods and resulting price to you. If you have a project to act on, do so now.

and relaxed? For many, that place is your cheerful sunroom, cozy library or the once hidden space beneath our homes known as a basement.

It doesn’t seem fitting to refer to our sub-surface retreats as a basement anymore which is likely what prompted racy architecture magazines to categorize them as “lower levels”. If you think about it, basements are the ultimate retrofit.

The featured lower level once resembled a typical sterile storage unit equipped with a few incandescent bulbs swinging from the ceiling and exposed utilities dazzling a scary corner.

That’s the power of before and after photos, they remind us of what used to be and what is possible and this modest remodeling project

shouts its bold existence with vibrant paint colors and the very smart use of space. A few short moments into this 400 square foot retreat and you forget that you are “down below” and overwhelmed with at extreme urge to read, relax or motor to the other side and crank out an extreme work out.

Choose your space and take your pick…just have a place to do it.

Cabinet-level decisions KITCHENS

By David Decker Cabinet space is essential to kitchen storage, and cabinet style is essential to kitchen décor. Cabinet design, however, is essential to kitchen function.

The kitchen is typically the most equipped, stocked, busy, multi-tasked and occupied space in a home. How the cabinets are designed to facilitate the demands of “the heart of the home”, along with appliances, countertops, lighting, technology, furniture and access, can make a kitchen a happy place or a pit of despair.

Well, maybe “pit of despair” is a bit of overacting, but I honestly do tell customers over and over, functional design is the single most important element in replacing kitchen cabinetry.

How you live, who you feed, how you cook, how often you cook, how you entertain, whether you’re tall or short, mobile or limited, and what preferences you have are all part of a very fluid, human and complex kitchen equation.

Multiply that by all the available choices of cabinet materials, hardware, finishes, placement, size and even technology, while setting and keeping the project within a budget, and profes-

sional design becomes invaluable.

A properly designed kitchen will have plenty of cabinet space and style, but nailing the overall functional design is what makes new cabinets, and really the whole kitchen, a success or failure.

I got an email from a young couple who just moved into a premium, nearly-new home with a spacious, richly-appointed kitchen featuring high-end appliances, custom hardwood cabinets, lots of space, lots of style.

Yet when they started unpacking kitchen boxes, they realized only then that the kitchen had no pantry, no place for seating, nowhere really to even stand and talk.

And these people like to entertain.

They laughed it off, but I appreciated the story. Design. Design. Design.

It needs to be right the first time.

David Decker is president of Affordable Kitchens and Bathrooms, based in Carmel (877-252-1420, www. affordablekandb.com). Have a home improvement question? E-mail David at david.decker@affordablekandb. com, and he will answer in an upcoming column.

A pain in the rear kind of day

OR

DE R

NO W

!

HUMOR

By Mike Redmond Looking back, I can see now that my first mistake was thinking I could have a normal day.

My second mistake was thinking that I was just in for a routine doctor visit.

In Mike World, you see, the words normal and routine mean nothing. There is no such thing as a normal day or a routine doctor visit, which is probably just as well. I wouldn’t know how to behave anyway.

So here’s what happened: I got up bright and early to head to the office of my new doctor.

Well, I call her new even though I’ve been seeing her for a few years now. Still, she is doctoring me in the wake of the legendary Dr. Shecky, the world’s funniest (he thinks) physician, who took care of me for 20 years before he retired.

It’s going to be three or four more years before Dr. Buffy, so named because she is about half my age, will no longer be “new.”

We talked about the customary stuff: blood pressure (excellent), cholesterol (excellent), and, weight (oops). And then, I mentioned that my right hip had been aching for a month or so.

Buffy asked a few questions, did a little poking and prodding, and then decided I should get an X-ray, just to see if there was anything going on in there.

So off I went to the X-ray office. I usually don’t mind X-rays. My hip was really starting to hurt, though, and it seemed like every time the

attendant moved me she made sure to put me in a position where I got the maximum amount of pain for my insurance dollar. It hurt so much I even forgot to make the old “I think my eyes were closed” joke when she came out to change films.

I expected to hear from Buffy in a few days regarding the results. Imagine my surprise when my phone rang less than an hour later.

“Have you got some time to talk?” my doctor asked. “Oh, I just hate having to give people bad news.”

Three times in my life I have had a doctor scare the bejeezus out of me. The first was when a cardiologist looked at my chart and said “This is very, very serious.” The second was when Shecky told me he was changing all my prescriptions to suppositories. And then there was the call from Buffy, in which she basically said there was a tumor growing in my hip joint.

A half-hour later, I was back getting an MRI of my hind end, a claustrophobic’s nightmare of a procedure that took about 45 minutes. And, judging by the heat generated as the magnetic waves passed through my caboose, left my buns a delicate golden brown.

DISPATCHES » Home flea remedies – If you don't want to use a flea collar with insecticides, active ingredients such as eucalyptus, cedar, lemongrass, rosemary and marigold won't exterminate, but will deter fleas. Also, feed your pet a combination of brewer's yeast and garlic once a day during flea season.

The mixture will make your pet taste bad to fleas when they bite, while also conditioning your pet's skin.

-www.almanac.com

» Keep your dog safe at night – There's nothing better than a collar that's cute and focused on safety and the Coral collar from RetroReflector ($15.99 to $21.99) is just that. There are four colors available now but more will be launching soon. Learn more at www.myretroreflector.com. » Promotion helps shelter reduce cat numbers – Last month's promotion offering discounted adoption rates to reduce the feline population at the Humane Society for Hamilton County was a huge success, according to Rebecca Stevens, the shelter's executive director.

"Between the Thursday and Sunday of that week, we did a total of 186 adoptions and 155 were cats," said Stevens.

"That Saturday was a record day of 80 adoptions. It gave us the breathing room we needed so we did not have to euthanize anyone!"

10 good reasons to adopt a senior pet

PETS

By Rebecca Stevens November is National Adopt-a-Senior Pet Month, and it’s a good thing. There are more pets over the age 5 entering shelters than ever before.

It’s hard to see any animal in a shelter environment, but it is especially difficult to see the gray faced cats and dogs there.

As we head into the holiday season, many people will decide that a puppy or kitten should be the new addition to their homes. Consider the following 10 reasons why it just might be an older pet that is an even better fit for your family.

1. Loyalty. Senior dogs and cats can sense that they have been saved and will be eternally loyal to his or her new “forever” family.

2. Ease of guardianship. Senior dogs and cats are mellow, relaxed and ready for a new home. Most senior pets are happiest sitting at your feet or curled up in your lap.

3. No huge lifestyle change. You don›t need to worry about puppy- or kitten-proofing your house and constant training, not to mention sleepless nights.

4. Stress reliever. Life today can be very hectic. Studies have shown that animal guardianship can decrease blood pressure levels and reduce stress.

5. WYSIWYG (“What you see is what you get.”). Senior dogs and cats are full grown and their personalities are completely developed. When you meet with your senior pet, you will know what kind canine or feline he or she is and will always be.

6. Doggie wisdom. Senior pets have learned many of life›s lessons -- like shoes are for walking, not chewing.

7. Calm, cool & collected. Most senior pets don’t demand the time and attention that a younger pet does.

Gus is a 15-year-old dog chihuahua and an example of the senior dogs at the shelter.

8. Old dog, new tricks. Senior dogs can learn new tricks and be valuable family and community members.

9. Save a life. Older animals are typically passed by in the shelter and wait longer than most other pets to find their forever homes.

10. November discount – Adoption fees are just $45 this month at the Humane Society for Hamilton County for ages 5 and older. NOVEMBER for all animals ages 5 and up!

Rebecca Stevens is executive director of the Humane Society for Hamilton County . You may contact her with questions, solutions and story suggestions at hamiltonhumane@ yahoo.com.

Pets of the week Tallulah is a three-year-old female white American Bulldog. Tallulah is a darling and petite girl who adores attention. She is playful and very gentle when taking treats; in fact, she actually curls her lips over her teeth when taking a treat. She is a little unsure about men when first meeting them, but with a little patience she does warm up. Tallulah arrived at the shelter with Heartworm disease. This is a curable condition and it is not contagious, but in order for her to begin the treatment, she needs a foster home where she can rest and recuperate. Please contact Animal Programs if you are interested in fostering or adopting Tallulah at 774-1263.

Milee is a seven-year-old female dilute tortie DSH. Milee is a petite little girl who has had a bit of a rough life. She arrived with irritated skin and scabs and missing teeth. She is feeling a whole lot better now and she looks great so hopefully she can find someone who will give her a chance to be a happy family pet. She enjoys being pet and scratched, but she doesn’t always like to be held. She is litter box trained and would prefer a quiet home. Milee qualifies for our PAWS Program – Partnering Animals With Seniors. Anyone age 55 or older can adopt her for a reduced fee.
