Contract awarded for next phase of U.S. 31 construction

By Robert Herrington robert@youarecurrent.com INDOT has awarded a $58.4 million contract for the new U.S. 31 Hamilton County between 146th and 169th streets, including new freeway exits at 146th, 151st and 161st streets. The bid, submitted by Rieth-Riley Construction of Goshen, was the lowest among five contractors and nearly $5 million below engineers’ cost estimates.

In March 2012, Gov. Mitch Daniels announced plans to open the new U.S. 31 Hamilton County project to traffic by the end of 2015, which was three years earlier than previously anticipated. INDOT plans to accept bids for three remaining construction phases before the end of this year to meet the 2015 deadline.

As soon as weather permits, Rieth-Riley is expected to begin work rebuilding U.S. 31 from 146th Street to just south of 169th Street. New ramps will connect 146th Street to the north with Greyhound Pass and 151st Street with a “split-diamond” interchange. A new freeway exit at 161st Street will have roundabouts controlling ramp and cross traffic. Local traffic on Union Street and 156th Street will pass under U.S. 31 with no on or off ramps.

U.S. 31 will remain two lanes in each

direction during peak times with traffic shifts and temporary intersection closures, helping to expedite construction while maintaining as much access as possible.

Officials said temporary closures at Greyhound Pass, 151st Street and 161st Street would be necessary, but the closures would be scheduled sequentially to minimize inconvenience to residents, businesses and motorists. More information will be shared at an open house planned for early spring.

The fabric of design – In this week’s column, Vicky Earley explains how the ideal inspiration fabric should have at least three colors which can be blended with two or more additional fabrics. Vary the fabrics with contrast, texture, scale, sheen and pattern. “The process of combining complementary elements taken from different sources typically starts with one stunning textile,” she writes.

Company facing lawsuit – Indianapolis-based heating, cooling, electrical and plumbing company Mister Quik is the target of a state lawsuit for allegedly misrepresenting the urgency of needed repairs to consumers to boost sales and charge unusually high prices for those services. The state is seeking injunctive relief, consumer restitution, investigative costs and civil penalties. To read the full story, visit www.currentinwestfield.com.

Volunteers sought for prevention program – Chaucie’s Place, a child advocacy center that focuses on the prevention of child sexual abuse, is recruiting volunteers for its Body Safety Prevention and Education Program. Executive Director Toby Stark said Body Safety was a child sexual abuse prevention and education program that teaches elementary school-aged children that their bodies belong to them and that they have the right to say “No” to a touch to their Stark private parts for “no good reason or just to play a game.” Additionally, the program teaches children they should tell a trusted adult about any touches that make them uncomfortable and that abuse is never their fault.

WHS Seniors Benjamin Carroll and Jaclyn Schillinger are 2013 National Merit Semifinalists. (Photo submitted)

WHS seniors named National Merit Semifinalists news@currentinwestfield.com Westfield High School seniors Benjamin Carroll and Jaclyn Schillinger have been named semifinalist in the 2013 National Merit Semifinalists Scholarship Program.

Carroll, the son of Darren and Rene Carroll, plans to major in astrophysics, but is undecided where he will attend college. Schillinger, the daughter of Jeffrey and Teresa Schillinger, is also undecided on where she will attend college but plans to double major in engineering and studio art.

Both students are now eligible for National Merit Finalist status, competing for 8,300 scholarship awards worth $32 million. Less than 1 per-

cent of high school seniors earn this recognition, for outstanding performance on the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT) taken in their junior year.

Approximately 16,000 high school seniors were named 2013 National Merit Scholarship semifinalists, from more than 1.5 million juniors entered in the program. Finalists will be announced in spring 2013.

About 90 percent of semifinalists are expected to attain finalist standing, and more than half of the finalists will win a National Merit Scholarship.

Westfield Youth Assistance adds case worker

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Hamilton County Youth Assistance has hired an additional case worker to assist with the Westfield Program. Christine Brown, a certified therapeutic recreation therapist, was the former program director for Purdue University, overseeing the youth program, Afternoons ROCK. Brown enjoys spending time with her husband, Andy, and sons, Adam and Ethan. She enjoys participating and watching all kinds of sports and spending time with friends and family.

“I am so excited to be a part of the Westfield Youth Assistance Program, and I am so impressed with the Westfield Community and all the people that I have had the privilege of meeting,” Brown said.

Brown is located in the Westfield City Ser-

vices Center at 2728 E. 171st St. and can be reached at 804-3191 or christine.brown@hamiltoncounty.in.gov The Youth Assistance Program is a program created by the City of Westfield, Westfield Washington Schools and the Hamilton County Probation Division. The goal is to identify youth in need of assistance before they become part of the growing juvenile and criminal justice system.

The program identifies youth heading down the wrong path and provides treatment for the entire family, ultimately ensuring that the child begins heading down the right path. Although the youth are evaluated and treated based on specific needs, the treatment consists of, but is not limited to, a mentoring program, community volunteering involvement, family education, skill building tutoring programs and scholarship camps.

Special Education, Indiana University, Bloomington; M.A. Special Education, Butler University, Indianapolis.

Why did you become a teacher? As a young girl, I babysat children. I often took care of a young boy who was handicapped. He was always so excited when we would play or read together. I loved watching him learn and grasp onto new things. I knew very early that I wanted to teach children with special needs. It was a child that inspired me.

What goals do you have for your students?

I would like every student to feel important. I want their struggles to be addressed and their gifts to be acknowledged and recognized. I

believe every student can learn, but not always in the same way as others. Few things are more rewarding than achieving success with my students. The satisfaction of knowing that I made a difference in their life is incomparable. I hope to inspire.

What do you encourage parents to do at home to help their children strengthen particular skills? I encourage my parents to read to and with their child daily. Literature is a powerful vehicle for helping children learn. Books can allow children to use their imagination, expand their vocabulary, and help them learn about the world around them.

Westfield Police Dept. working with school district to create better disaster scenario plans and active shooter situations

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com During the last Friday of winter break, Westfield High School teachers returned to the school, but instead of preparing their classrooms for their students’ return, they were given a glimpse into the lives of local police officers as members of the Westfield Police Dept. provided a demonstration of an “active shooter” scenario.

“We don’t want to scare people or be paranoid. We just want to be prepared,” Police Chief Joel Rush said. “The goal is to mirror our plans together. They know our tactics and plan, and we’ll know their plans.”

Rush and school officials pointed out that the winter break demonstration was planned in October, before the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School.

“It shows even more the importance of demonstrations like this,” he said. “We’re not reacting to this; we’ve been training for years. We want to educate the school about what we are doing.”

Rush explained that the WPD frequently practices active-shooter scenarios with the hopes that they’ll never have to put their plans in action. He said similar scenarios were held at Monon Trail Elementary School during fall break and Westfield Middle School last summer.

“We encourage officers to go into schools and businesses to notice how they are laid out,” he said.

Jan. 4 was the first time the WPD had an audience during its practice sessions. Rush said the goal of the day was to provide teachers with insight and so they could hear the sound of a gunshot down the hall.

“It gets them to think a lot better,” he said.

“When they hear a threat they should shut and lock the door, shut the lights off and have students hunker down.”

The demonstration provided teachers a

“If it’s me, I’m going in after the threat,” Rush said, who added that previous tactics included waiting until SWAT teams arrived on scene. “We are trying to get right to the threat, which is the goal – get in as quick as you can and take the threat out, period.”

One of the biggest eyeopeners was the speed at which a gunman could clear a classroom of 30. As Lt. Mike Seagrave walked into one classroom, out of sight from teachers, the sounds of gunshots and shells hit-

ting the floor could be heard. An empty clip fell to the floor as Seagrave came back into the hallway and entered another classroom with a full magazine seconds later.

“People in Newtown called it a peaceful and quiet community,” WPD’s Kim Daniels, a school resource officer, said.

“Everything people would say here about Westfield. You never know what is going to be the next community and that is why we are doing this.”

The demonstration allows teachers to think ahead – if this, then that, Daniels said.

“You’ll have that knowledge so you don’t hesitate,” she said. “We’ll have a plan in place until the shooters

Portraying the shooter, Lt. Mike Seagrave walks down a Westfield High School highway firing blanks so teachers could hear the sound of gunshots and see how an active shooter might act in their building.

What is an active shooter? – An active shooter is defined by the U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security as an individual actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill people in a confined and populated area. In most cases, active shooters use firearms and there is no pattern or method to their selection of victims. Active shooters have caused a paradigm shift in law enforcement training and tactics, as suspects are not necessarily expected to escape or even survive these situations and are undeterred from carrying out their attack.

learn again, and we change it.”

Working with the school district is nothing new for the city’s public safety departments.

To better prepare students and staff members, administrators create “authentic situations” during tornados and fire drills, such as blocking a hallway or exit, holding drills during passing periods or lunchtime, or removing students to ensure they are accounted for by teachers.

“We create plans for every different scenario,” Rush, whose a member of the school district’s safety committee, said. “Our school does a better job than most.”

“We’re getting to think outside the box, getting teachers to ask more questions so each person knows what their role is,” WHS Assistant Principal Alicia Denniston said.

Chris Baldwin, WWS executive director of human resources, said the district’s safety committee was being proactive during a neverending process.

“Today gave teachers a visual of how they will respond – a feel for what are the options I have with my students,” he said.

Baldwin said the district had revised its plans after local events like the Martinsville shooting and the tornado in Henryville.

A life-saving donation It is our position that Designer Skin should be recognized for their thoughtfulness and giving to one of our county’s worthy organizations and its inhabitants. On Jan. 4, Designer Skin made a $10,000 donation to the Humane Society for Hamilton County.

The donation will go a long way toward saving the lives of animal’s that have been discarded or mistreated by their owners.

HSHC Executive Director Rebecca Stevens said donations like this and the $24,526 check from the Sam Zeckel family in November were used to support the survivor program. Because the shelter does everything possible to save the lives of all animals, Stevens said these donations to the survivor program provided emergency and life-saving care to animals brought to the shelter.

Designer Skin said the donation was possible because of the support of local customers at tanning salons who bought its Charmed tanning lotion, knowing the proceeds from their purchase went to the local shelters.

Traditionally traditional Commentary by Terry Anker Reminded of the erstwhile George Bailey crying out that he’d lost Zuzu’s petals, I wonder if the traditions carefully crafted in our own family will endure or quietly disappear.

Would, if asked, our progeny identify seasonal traditions that have come to have meaning to them? And if so, would those named correspond with those intended by we parents at inception? Would the long valued and treasured patterns from my own childhood be lost as merged with those of my spouse and still again those derived from our own marriage?

Remembering the most direct path to a direct answer is a direct question, “So children,” I queried, “What if any do you believe to be our family holiday traditions?” Without hesitation and in near unity, they responded that they took great value in the routine, designed to keep them away from the tree on Christmas morning, of sleeping on the floor of my wife and my bedroom. They didn’t speak to Midnight services, copious decorations or

receiving gifts. The tradition they’d found most meaningful was one that we didn’t even consider a tradition! Surprised by the response – especially in the consistency and conviction of answer – I listened as the boys recalled memories from one holiday to the next, of nights in sleeping bags, surrounded by dogs and Cheetos. They were right, this silly little pattern had become a tradition. And, it had become one that mattered – not just to them, but to me too.

So this year, when we put away the last of our midnight snacks and extinguished all the lights, our bedroom found a 16-year-old just now taller than me, his 12-year-old brother not far behind, a happy dog, and a very content Mom and Dad. It’s not a grand tradition, but it’s ours and we love it.

This really is quite a terrific move: The Westfield Youth Assistance Program has announced that the program is expanding into Noblesville.

The newly formed Noblesville Youth Assistance this month is to begin identifying and accepting referred youth. A caseworker will be in Noblesville School’s Administration Office.

The City of Westfield, Westfield Washington Schools and the Hamilton County Probation Division created the Youth Assistance Program.

Its goal continues to be the identification of youth in need of assistance before becoming part of the growing juvenile and criminal justice system. The program provides treatment for the family, ultimately ensuring that the child begins heading down the right path. Although the youth are evaluated and treated based on specific needs, the treatment consists of, but is not limited to, a mentoring program, community volunteering involvement, family education, skill-building tutoring programs and scholarship camps. We’ve seen the difference it has made in Westfield and we’re big supporters of the effort. In Noblesville, the program is a partnership of the City of Noblesville, the Hamilton County Juvenile Court Judges and Noblesville Schools. The entry into Noblesville gives those who are able marvelous opportunities to become mentors and tutors for the children that are referred into the program. If this interests you, please register at www.youthassistance.org or call 804-3191.

Keeping abreast of the busts Commentary by Danielle Wilson I’m not sure why, but for some reason bust size has been front and center in my recent conversations. Let’s explore further, shall we?

It all started a few days ago when I learned a friend of a friend’s brother’s ex-roommate’s wife had successfully undergone breast augmentation. I have considered the surgery, so I’m always curious as to the cost and recovery and overall outcome of anyone who has actually had the nerve to go through with it. The gal in question had a wonderful experience; she had little to no down time (important when one has children and/or a job) and obviously saw immediate, big results. You go, girl!

Several days later, I found myself not watching the Colts game but rather discussing the pros and cons of plastic surgery with the two women next to me. We focused mainly on the brazier region, though we tossed in tummy tucks for good measure. (And before you accuse me of hating on Pagano, know that any woman who has borne children has considered at least for a moment “fixing” the often-times disastrous physical aftermath of pregnancy and nursing, and when given a choice between “first and ten” and “liposuction,” she’s going to opt for the lipo.) Anyhoo, turns out both of them have also thought about some extra padding up top.

Money is the biggest factor holding them back,

especially when they think about all the better uses of a few extra grand.

The boob trilogy ended with my annual mammogram yesterday, and for some reason, the procedure was much “twistier” and “tuggier” than I remember. My technician was lovely, but the squashing was far more pronounced this time.

I had to wonder if my small size was the cause.

Surely having more to work with would make the scanning easier? Of course, more surface area would mean more cold steel pressed up against me. Um, I’ll pass. Regardless, I was less tolerant of the screening and came home feeling slightly man-handled. At least buy a girl a drink first!

So the chest area has been at the forefront of my life lately. Typically this only happens during swimsuit season when I see two of my sisters looking fabulous thanks to their own surgical C-cup plunges. What can it all mean? Is it just more acceptable and common to talk about plastic surgery these days, or is someone trying to tell me I should reconsider a little “enhancement” myself? I don’t know, but I’ll be sure to keep you abreast of the situation. (I’ve been trying to work that line in since this article began!) Peace out.

Based on a true story Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

There is one thing my wife is never late for: movies. She is convinced that there will be traffic, no place to park, and it will be sold out.

None of this is ever true, yet we leave early and end up sitting in a totally empty theater, with a huge bag of popcorn, looking at commercials for 20 minutes, waiting for the previews. Which Mary Ellen loves.

I hate previews. I can’t give you one logical explanation why. I dislike them so much that I sometimes sneak into a different movie and watch for a few minutes while I wait for our film to begin. Mary Ellen thinks that’s like a preview. Sorry, not the same.

Last week, my wife and son wanted to see “The Hobbit” at 5 p.m. At 4, Mary Ellen announced she and Brett were leaving early to ensure they got a good seat, but I wasn’t falling for it. “It’s a Thursday afternoon; no one will be there, so you go ahead,” I told them. “I’ll meet you there. Keep your cell phone on, and you can text me what row you are sitting in.”

“One ticket for “The Hobbit,” please, the 5 o’clock show,” I told the ticket seller when I arrived at exactly 5:10. I had timed this perfectly.

“There’s no Hobbit at 5,” said the young man, “but we have a 5:30 in 3-D.” I couldn’t believe Mary Ellen messed up the times. Oh, well. I grabbed my3-D glasses and

walked into the theater. It was a packed house, so I didn’t see her. I sent a text.

“Where r u guys?”

“Eighth row, dead center. Where r u?”

“I don’t c u.”

“Meet me at the snack bar,” Mary Ellen said.

I waited by the popcorn machine. Another text from Mary Ellen. “Glendale theater lobby not that big. Where are you?”

“I am at United Artists on 96th Street, where we usually go.” (I would have added OMG, but I am 65 years old.)

This was the biggest mix-up in our marriage since our wedding day in Chicago in 1980. I was at the Ambassador East Hotel having a few drinks before the ceremony. But where was everybody else? At the Ambassador West, that’s where.

I should have read the invitation more carefully.

When we all met at home a few hours later, they made fun of me. They said that going to the wrong theater was proof that I was spacier and more absent-minded than ever. Of course, I vehemently denied it. At which point, Mary Ellen told me that now was probably a good time to take off my 3-D glasses.

It all gets down to manners Commentary by Mike Redmond I recently heard a fellow say that old age begins when the world no longer makes sense to you. By that standard, I entered my Golden Years when I was 9.

The remark came as part of a talk on technology, which I’ll admit rules our lives in ways we couldn’t begin to imagine 20, 10 or even five years ago. But just because I can’t figure out how to program my new phone doesn’t mean I’m old.

Oh, phones. They are a boon to mankind and a bane to our existence, aren’t they? They allow us to do a zillion things, including staying in touch with one another, while simultaneously eroding the bedrock of a civilized society.

It all gets down to manners.

I was raised to understand that a person’s telephone conversation is privileged, and that a polite person leaves the room when someone takes a call. Also, a polite person doesn’t take a call when he or she is engaged in conversation with an actual live human being-type person in the room.

As a kid, I actually found this very confusing: Leave the room when someone’s on the phone, but don’t answer the phone when someone’s in the room? Huh? 14 | January 15, 2013

Today, telephonic portability has rendered the old rules useless, and what used to be seen as intolerably rude – people feeling free to make and take calls or texts regardless of where they are, who they’re with or what they’re doing – is normal. You don’t even get a chance to be polite.

As usual, I blame my generation, the Baby Boomers®. We might have been raised with manners but that doesn’t mean we’ve passed them along.

We are so weird. We’ll spend hundreds of dollars on eBay trying to recapture our kidhoods by buying the toys we lost. But when it comes to something from the olden days that could actually be useful – using some manners, not to mention some common sense, where phones are concerned – well, we sort of let that one slide.

I realize I sound a bit cranky, and I suppose that is another way to say old. But I’m not, really. I just believe that our lives could all be improved if we remembered our manners and thought about someone other than ourselves once in a while.

Comedy by Jeff Daniels hits Buck Creek stage news@currentinwestfield.com

Whether you are a fan of deer hunting or not, you’ll enjoy the Soady clan in Jeff Daniels’ “Escanaba in da Moonlight.” Opening Jan. 25 and running through Feb. 3 at Buck Creek Playhouse, 11150 Southeastern Ave., Indianapolis, you can join the fun and hilarity without the long drive up north.

The story is narrated by Albert Soady, the patriarch, played by Ken Ganza. His two sons join him at the Soady Deer Camp, located “north of the Mackinaw Bridge and just south of heaven.” It’s just the guys here, doing what guys do at the start of hunting season.

Beer, whiskey, cards ... the essentials.

Albert’s oldest son, Rueben, played by Joe Siefker, is a dim hunter slouching into middle age, ostracized by the men in his family and the children of the town of Escanaba for his annual inability to bag a buck. Rueben joins his father, his brother Remnar, played by Stefan U.G. LeBlanc, and eccentric family friend Jimmer Negamany from Menominee, played

by Tim Staggs, at the Soady deer camp for their yearly, alcohol-soaked ritual of tall tales and one-upmanship.

Albert says of his younger son, “Remnar turned out to be pretty much what you’d expect from somebody who went by the name of Remnar.”

Remnar is wildly enthusiastic about hunting season.

“It’s like Christmas, with guns!” he proclaims.

Jimmer was once abducted by aliens and spent a weekend in “shpashe.” Rueben has a bigger problem since he has never shot a buck, and is ridiculed by the entire population of the town of Escanaba. He hopes that this year he will break the curse and bring home a trophy buck with the help of his Ojibwa wife, Wolf Moon Dance, played by Cerissa Marsh.

Otherworldly forces conspire to keep the Soady men from achieving their goals.

However, soon after they set up camp, they’re plagued by blinding lights and hallucinogenic

‘The Other Dream Team’ • Not Rated, 91 minutes Commentary by Chris Lloyd During a slow week for new video releases, you might want to take time to check out “The Other Dream Team,” a scrappy little documentary about the Lithuanian national basketball team.

Playing in the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, the Lithuanians did not prove much of an actual challenge to the better-known Dream Team, which consisted of American NBA stars like Michael Jordan, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson.

(The U.S. beat them 127-76.) But, the team from Lithuania, which had for decades been absorbed as part of the Soviet Union, made history playing again as a sovereign nation, winning the bronze medal in the process.

Director Marius A. Markevicius keeps the pace zippy, mixing archival footage of basketball

games, news reels of Lithuanians marching for their independence as the Iron Curtain fell, plus contemporaneous interviews with the players and their opponents. Some are familiar faces – like Arvydas Sabonis and Sarunas Marciulionis, who both went on to productive NBA careers – while many others we’re meeting for the first time.

It’s an often thrilling portrait of young men who were playing for their country at a time when it was shrugging off the shackles of totalitarianism. They were living the real dream.

Top tips for a healthy new year

As much as 80% of learning comes from your children’s vision.

Commenraty by Steven Hill, MD If your New Year’s resolutions include improving your health, there are important habits you can adopt to help keep you on track. The top three healthy habits for everyone are: Exercise regularly – The American Heart Association recommends that adults engage in at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise each week. Aerobic exercise is generally recommended, and adults are encouraged to add weight/resistance training and stretching to their program.

Eat healthy – Be sure your diet includes plenty of fruits and vegetables. Avoid foods high in salt, sugar and fat. Watch portion sizes and avoid snacking.

Get adequate sleep – Adults typically need between seven and nine hours of sleep nightly.

Avoid meals and exercise close to bedtime.

Staying healthy this year also begins with the right preventive care. General preventive health guidelines for women and men include: Women • Schedule an annual check-up with your primary care doctor.

• Have your cholesterol checked if you are older than 20; be sure your doctor also screens for pre-diabetes/diabetes.

• Schedule a colorectal cancer screening beginning at age 50; earlier if you have a family history of the disease.

• Practice breast self-exams; have a clinical breast exam at least every three years in your 20s and 30s; schedule yearly mammograms beginning at age 40.

• Begin cervical cancer screenings at age 21 and continue every three years (if results are normal) until age 65.

• Schedule HPV (human papillomavirus) screenings every five years between ages 30

Don’t let them fall behind.

and 65.

• Talk with your doctor about vaccinations you may need (flu, tetanus boosters, varicella/chicken pox, pneumonia).

Men • Schedule an annual check-up with your primary care doctor.

• Have your cholesterol checked if you are older than 20; be sure your doctor also screens for pre-diabetes/diabetes.

• Schedule a colorectal cancer screening beginning at age 50; earlier if you have a family history of the disease.

• Begin prostate cancer screening at age 50; earlier if you are African American or have a family history of the disease.

• Talk with your doctor about vaccinations you may need (flu, tetanus boosters, varicella/chicken pox, pneumonia).

Business How do you file an accident claim?

DOUGH

Commentary by Jamie Ianigro Question from Samuel B. from Carmel: I saw a minor fender-bender yesterday in a roundabout on my way to work, and I realized I have no idea what I’m supposed to do if I have to file an auto claim. What should I know?

Response from Jamie Ianigro: Being in an automobile accident, no matter how minor, is a scary thing. Your independent insurance agent should be able to provide you with a card to keep in your glove box that outlines everything you need to do if you are in an accident. Here is what we recommend.

1. Take a deep breath and assess the situation.

Get your vehicle and passengers out of further harm if the vehicle is still operable.

2. Make sure no one in your vehicle needs immediate medical attention. Next, check the occupants of any other vehicle involved.

3. Call the police. It doesn’t matter how minor the accident. Having a police report filed will make your claim process much smoother.

4. Exchange insurance information and record the details. Make sure the other driver’s insurance is not out of date. Get their phone number, address, license plate number and the make and model of their car.

5. Use your camera phone to take pictures of your car from every angle and of any

damage.

6. Obtain a copy of the police report and call your independent agent to file a claim.

Driving without insurance coverage in Indiana is illegal and a great way to end up with a suspended license or serious financial problems. The starting point for insurance in Indiana is the required state minimum coverages. The minimums are $25,000 per injured person, $50,000 per accident and $10,000 for property damage. The current cost of medical expenses and auto repairs make it clear that those amounts are not going to get you very far when it comes time to settle a claim. They also provide you zero protection from motorists that drive around without insurance or with the inadequate state minimum insurance.

I recommend limits of $250,000 per injured person, $500,000 per accident and $100,000 for property damage with an endorsement to protect you from uninsured and underinsured motorists. You can also get a discount by packaging these policies together with your homeowner’s policy. Let me know if you have any further questions about this and drive safely.

Jamie Ianigro is with Shepherd Insurance & Finanacial Services.

Grammar Guy / Spirituality

Relive the past in the historical present Commentary by Jordan Fischer Question: After the “myself” issue – how about “her and me” or “him and I?” And as another issue, why on earth do sportscasters refer to past events in the present tense? – Nancy Blackwell Answer: Since there are football games going on all around me as I try to write this column, I think I’ll tackle your second question today, Nancy.

The rhetorical tense you’re referring to is called historical present, or dramatic present. It is used, as you’ve pointed out, to narrate events which have already happened as though they are ongoing. Journalists use this technique quite frequently when writing headlines: “House burns out of control” versus “House burned out of control.” The historical present tense gives the headline a greater sense of being immediate, “breaking” news, even though the event may have happened the day before.

The historical present tense is used frequently in accounts of history in an attempt to place the reader or audience “in the action,” so to speak.

Ken Burns’ fantastic documentary on the Civil War uses the historical present to wonderful effect. “If Robert E. Lee loses the siege of Petersburg,” Burns’ narrator might say, “the South has all but lost the war.” Although the events being described happened more than 150 years ago, the historical present tense allows Burns to

{ S E C O N D C I T Y. C O M }

maintain the sense of drama for his audience which actual observers of the conflict would have felt.

Sportscasters, I imagine, use the historical present for much the same effect (Although I have heard speculation that they employ it out of laziness, as using past tense would often require a too-hefty mouthful of words.) Being a Butler grad, I’ll offer you an example from the university’s first try at the NCAA basketball championship against Duke University. As the clock ran down, Butler University sophomore Gordon Hayward took a half-court shot which would have won the game for his team. This is the clip ESPN plays during every Butler basketball game anymore. Here is what the sportscaster says: “If Hayward makes the shot, the Bulldogs win their first NCAA championship. If not, they go home to Indianapolis as runners-up.” Of course, the shot was off by some ridiculously minute degree – and we had to suffer another championship to Duke – but the historical present tense allows us to relive that heart-stopping moment as the ball pinged off the backboard over and over again. And over and over and over again, thanks to ESPN. Jordan Fischer is a contributing columnist for Current Publishing.

Truth, proof, prayer, and privacy Commentary by Bob Walters A lamentable yet inescapable fact of modern life is that non-believers and non-sharers of faith forthrightly reject meaningful public prayer.

Just read the relentless, frequent, and predominantly faith-rejecting mainstream media commentary. Take your prayer life into a closet and stop annoying the rest of us while you’re making a fool of yourself praying to an invisible god, we are scolded. After all, it is piously (and ironically) claimed, Jesus said so.

Congregants in the prayer-bridling “commentariat” cite Jesus’s words in Matthew 6:6: “But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen.”

Elsewhere Jesus instructs those He has healed or who have witnessed His miracles to “tell no one.” In His beautiful prayers at Gethsemane (John 17) before His arrest, trial and crucifixion, Jesus withdraws (Mark 14:32-35) to pray privately to His Father.

Hence, Go pray in private. Let’s examine that.

In Matthew 6:6, Jesus is adamantly telling the crowd not to pray as the hypocrites in the temples, who pridefully prayed loudly for their own glory, not reverently for God’s. Then, in Matthew 6:11, Jesus teaches the humble Lord’s Prayer, which begins with “Our Father” – note

the plural, not singular, “Our” address of this most famous of prayers. We pray to be in relationship with God the Father through Christ our Lord in the Holy Spirit … and with each other. The entire Kingdom is involved. Even “private” prayer is a community thing.

Jesus’s mission on earth was to reveal and seal mankind’s salvation, not to trumpet that He was the Son of God. Jesus knew that His miracles could overshadow His mission: restoration of mankind’s divine fellowship, not temporal tricks and comfort. So He often said, “Don’t tell.” Jesus’s actions, example, teaching, life, death, resurrection – now joined with scripture, prayers and faith – are the only, and in my mind entirely sufficient, “proof ” we have.

Yes, Jesus regularly prayed by Himself. But His primary instruction after His resurrection is in Matthew 28:19: “ … go and make disciples of all nations.” That is anything but an entreaty for exclusively private faith and prayer.

Even the smallest faith and prayer can grow into eternity. Why would anyone argue to keep that truth private?

Bowl a strike with this winter project Commentary by Ashley Phipps The weather has officially gotten frigid, and while it is occasionally fun to go outside and play in the snow with your kids, sometimes, it is simply too cold! During these cold winter months it’s not an easy job to find fun and creative ways to help my two children continue to learn, grow and not drive each other crazy!

Creating this simple snowman bowling set is a great way to get your children involved in an activity they will actually love to use.

You Will Need: • Wooden Dowel (approximately 1 inch or larger in diameter and approximately 4 feet in length) • Craft paint (white, black, orange) • Felt • Foam paint brush • Small paint brushes • Masking tape • Hot glue gun • Saw (miter or hand held is fine) • Sandpaper How To: 1. Cut your 4 foot length of wooden dowel into six equal pieces, 8 inches long. Be sure to carefully cut the ends perpendicular so that they will stand upright.

2. Sand the ends and corners of the dowel to take off any rough areas. These don’t need

4. Tape off a top section of your dowel (approximately 1 inch down from the top) and paint black paint from the tape up.

This will be your snowman hat.

5. Using the wrong end of a small paint brush, dip it in black paint and dab on the dowel for eyes, mouth and buttons.

6. Use the right end of a small paint brush and orange paint to paint in a carrot nose.

(No need for perfection!)

7. Cut six pieces of felt about 8 inches long and ½ inch wide in various colors. Tie around the snowman for a scarf. Use a dab of hot glue to secure in place.

8. Find an old ball and get ready to BOWL! Only adults should carefully cut the wooden dowels, using safety goggles and proper preventative measures. But your children can help you paint and assemble the snowmen.

I can almost guarantee your kids will love bowling over snowman in the wintertime. And it will help give them one more activity to do when the dreaded “I’m bored …” starts being said.

Enjoy! to be perfectly sanded as they will see a little wear and tear anyway.

3. Using your foam brush, paint the dowels white. Let dry completely.

INSIDE & OUT

Indoors

New year, newly organized space Commentary by David Decker A new year has begun, and it’s the perfect time to start fresh and get rid of all the junk that’s cluttering up your life – and your home.

Simplify your life by getting organized with the help of some welldesigned products and innovative storage solutions. Take a look at a few of these creative ideas and little enhancements.

Because it’s often the hub of a home, the kitchen is notorious for becoming messy and disorderly.

The easiest way to keep unnecessary items from cluttering up your kitchen is to ensure that everything has a designated spot.

Consider replacing some of the cabinet shelves with pull out drawers or trays. Drawers often have a larger surface area for storage, and you’ll also be able to reach items at the back of the cabinet with greater ease. For added organization, you can install the same rolling trays or drawers in the pantry. You can group similar foods in the pantry together for easy access. You can even designate each member of the family a shelf so everyone knows where their favorite foods are.

If you aren’t looking to change your cabinets or pantry, there are also a number of small ways you can maximize kitchen organization. Store dishes, baking supplies or linens in a little armoire in the kitchen. A basic pegboard can be used to hold kitchen utensils, freeing up your cabinet drawers. Save space by hanging pots over an island, doorway or window using a rack.

Now let’s take on the second most visited room in the house: the bathroom. Keeping everything organized in the bathroom can be a difficult task. Well-designed built-in storage or shelving are great for storing towels, soaps and other products. Try to install storage in overlooked places such as walls, corners or the back of the door. If you are faced with limited space, you could use small baskets or hooks to organize

toiletries instead of shelves. All you need is a little creative thinking to get around those pesky storage capacity problems.

No matter which room you choose to tackle, getting organized is a great way to begin the year off on the right note. Take the opportunity to start fresh and enjoy the possibilities on the horizon. Happy 2013! Let’s make this year a great one.
