Major construction coming across Hamilton County

By Robert Herrington robert@youarecurrent.com Commissioner Steve Dillinger is excited about all the projects and construction taking place and planned within Hamilton County. During his annual State of the County address, Dillinger highlighted a few efforts made by the county that have saved taxpayers’ money as well as upcoming projects residents should notice: County Employee Health Clinic and Pharmacy In 2012 the county partnered with Riverview Hospital to create the county employee clinic and pharmacy. Dillinger said the facility saved more than $200,000 in the first year. “We hope to save as much as $800,000 each year,” he said.

Countywide dispatch service The Noblesville and Carmel dispatch offices were both consolidated to Hamilton County. Dillinger said the consolidation saved Noblesville $1.1 million and Carmel $1.8 million. “All of us had to work together to save taxpayers $3 million,” he said.

Construction Projects • 146th Street west from Springmill Road to the Boone County line. The $30-million high priority project is funded 80 percent with federal dollars and 20 percent with local funds.

Dillinger said Phase I from Springmill to Ditch roads was planned for construction starting later this year with major construction coming in 2014. This is the last section of 146th Street that will connect Interstate 69 to State Road 421.

• The Monon Pedestrian Bridge over 146th Street was constructed with

Hospital restrictions – With flu season at its peak, Riverview Hospital has announced added precautions to protect its patients, families, staff members and the community from unnecessary exposure to influenza. On Jan. 18, Riverview Hospital implemented temporary visitation restrictions which include no visitors under the age of 18, unless special arrangements have been made and no visitors except immediate family, partner or significant other.

80 percent federal dollars. Dillinger said it was scheduled for completion this spring. “The structure is unique in that it has a heated deck surface that Carmel Parks Dept. has agreed to maintain,” he said.

• Dillinger said funding for a roundabout at Hague and Carrigan roads has been secured. Construction to turn the three-way stop to a roundabout is planned for 2014. “This is another cost sharing project with the county, Noblesville and federal funds,” he said.

• The 96th Street and Olio Road project, which will be finished this spring, completes the expansion of

Filling the seat – With Doug Carter accepting the Supt. of Indiana State Police position, he had to resign from his seat as a Hamilton County Commissioner. A caucus was held last Saturday with 204 Republican Precinct Committeemen voting on his replacement.

Those that filed for the seat included Steve Holt, Mark Heirbrandt, Rick McKinney, John Allee, Parvin Gilliam, Dan Reike and Zach Zeurcher. This caucus was held after publication, but results can be found in next week’s edition or online.

Olio Road on the county’s south side.

Dillinger said this project had transformed the two-lane road into a fourto five-lane corridor.

• To ease congestion at the 96th and 116th streets interchange, construction is coming to 106th Street and I-69. The $25-million project will be paid by Fishers ($8 million), Hamilton County ($2 million) and INDOT ($15 million). Dillinger said I-69 would be developed like Keystone Avenue in Carmel with the goal to promote economic development in that general area. Construction is tentatively scheduled for 2015.

Attendance jump – In 2012, Conner Prairie saw a 5-percent increase in total visitation, which includes admission to all of its programs – both day and night – such as Headless Horseman, Follow the North Star and Hearthside Suppers.

Throughout the year, more than 235,000 people visited or took part in Conner Prairie programs. Adding in Symphony on the Prairie visitors, Conner Prairie hosted about 323,000 people last year.

Tailgating – Joe Drozda knows it’s too cold to tailgate right now, but the right food makes or breaks any Super Bowl party. His survey found that the favorite foods for a Game Day open house are: Buffalo wings, specialty dips for veggies and crackers, meat balls for subs and general munching, and bread bowls filled with cheese or spinach dip. Drozda included a Bread Bowl Sausage Dip that will have your guests sneaking back to your snack table with embarrassing frequency.

Spirituality – Columnist Bob Walters writes this week about “taking truth of the table” and uses Lance Armstrong as an example of the human condition. “Our sports-minded culture wants good and evil to be on a scoreboard plainly displaying who’s ahead, who’s behind, who wins and who loses. But no secular scoreboard can conclusively delineate ‘truth’ for humanity’s good, bad and ugly,” Walters writes.

Movie review – Andy Ray reviews the Golden Globe award-winning film “Les Miserables.”“First, the story stays true to the original Hugo novel. Second, the music is often fabulous, yet occasionally tedious. Third, the performances are mostly strong. And finally, the cinematography is great,” Ray said.

Lynette Kidd lost 50 pounds through A Call To L.I.F.E. at St.Vincent.

And so can you.

Losing weight can be tough. But with A Call To L.I.F.E. program, available at St.Vincent Carmel Hospital, natural weight-loss through healthy lifestyle choices has never been easier. Just ask Lynette Kidd. She lost 50 pounds over a seven-month period while following her personalized A Call To L.I.F.E. fitness and nutrition plan.

dinah

“I knew I needed to lose weight, but I wasn’t motivating myself. I had tried various diet and exercise programs over the years, but nothing worked. That’s when I turned to the experts at St.Vincent. A Call To L.I.F.E. made all the difference,” said Lynette.

A Call To L.I.F.E. is a personalized weight-loss program focused on maintaining good results through healthy lifestyle habits. It includes 20 visits with qualified weight loss professionals.

During each session, you will meet with a physician and a diet, exercise or psychology specialist.

Together, they will design a program around your lifestyle, rather than a one-size-fits all program.

The first 10 weekly sessions are the most intense. They include weigh-ins, labs and counseling.

The next 10 bi-weekly sessions are designed to help you transition to greater personal accountability. In addition, Drs. Adrienne R. Gomez and Lori A. Hurst have significant experience and education to help patients throughout the program.

“Now that I’ve gone through the A Call To L.I.F.E. program, I feel great both physically and mentally. I’m more confident. I do stuff like play tennis with my husband, mow the lawn with a push mower, and go out with friends,” said Lynette.

Many insurance companies cover full or partial costs of A Call To L.I.F.E. program. Be sure to check with your employer or medical insurance company to see if A Call To L.I.F.E. is a covered service.

For more information about how you can become a part of A Call To L.I.F.E., call 317-582-8030 or visit weightloss.stvincent.org.

What Happened: Harmony Planned unit development ordinance What it means: The property is approximately 277 acres of agriculture and vacant land on the west side of Ditch Road, between 146th and 156th streets. The Harmony planned unit development ordinance establishes two districts: a Single Family Residential District, which accommodates the project’s singlefamily dwellings; and a Mixed-Use District, which accommodates the project’s multi-family and commercial areas. The development allows for a maximum of 710 single-family detached dwellings, 270 multi-family dwellings and 170,000 square feet of commercial space.

What’s next: Approval is contingent upon Hamilton County’s approval of at least one right in/right out access to each of the areas on 146th Street.

10650 N Michigan Rd., Zionsville, IN 46077 | (888) 478-1917 | myindyford.com

What Happened: Andover planned unit development amendment What it means: An amendment to the Andover planned unit development amendment will allow multi-family dwellings within Parcel G. The property is located on about 46 acres on the southeast corner of 186th Street and Shady Nook Road in the Andover PUD. Fifty units of singlefamily attached dwellings are currently constructed in Parcel G, with 230 units of multi-family units permitted.

What’s next: Council member Steve Hoover said the project was very different than originally presented and was not what the city was used to in multi-family developments. “It’s better than originally planned for the area,” he said, adding it better fits today’s current market. A timetable for construction was not announced at the meeting.

What Happened: Merrill area annexation What it means: The city will annex 122 acres of vacant farmland located on the southwest corner of 186th Street and Kinsey Avenue (27.72 acres) and the area north of 191st Street and west of Tomlinson Road (93.9 acres). The annexation was 100-percent voluntary and has little to no impact for the city. The annexation is to further include the contiguous public highways and rights-of-way which are adjacent to the area.

What’s next: The ordinance is in full force and effect after its passage by the council.

What Happened: Repayment of State of Infrastructure Bank Loan What it means: The city commits to the repayment of the SIB Loan pursuant to the requirements of Indiana Code 4-10-19-8 with amortization to begin no later than one year from the date of the end of the construction of the project. The amortization schedule previously prepared by INDOT included a $4.3-million loan with a 2-percent annual interest rate. It will be paid over 10 years with two payments of $238.285.85 each year.

What’s next: The anticipated start date was November 2012, but the city said the initiation date of the project had not been determined.

COMMUNITY Crime Westfield police investigating exploding mailboxes news@currentinwestfield.com The Westfield Police Dept. is investigating four instances of vandalism that recently occurred in the city. From Jan. 18-20, several overpressure devices have been detonated. In each instance, Sgt. Robert Dine said the device had been placed inside a mailbox, causing damage.

Overpressure devices, or bottle bombs, are usually seen in a sealed two-liter bottle containing common household cleaners and aluminum foil. When the ingredients are combined, a chemical reaction is created that causes the bottle to explode. The remains of the devices can include chemicals and fumes that can cause injury to the skin, eyes and respiratory tract.

“The greatest danger is if the overpressure device fails to explode, and is found by an unsuspecting person. Picking up an unexploded device could agitate the chemicals, causing the bottle to explode in their hands,” Dine said.

Police Cpt. Brodie Houston said the devices have not caused any physical harm yet but warns residents to not pick up, kick, touch, or disturb any bottle filled with unknown fluids or objects.

Cover Story

Rediscovering his voice Westfield High School student Chase Andrzejewski gains renewed confidence after a voice change

By Katy Frantz • katy@youarecurrent.com To young teenage boys, a cracking voice is merely annoying, but to Chase Andrzejewski, cracking voice robbed him of his self-assurance.

Andrzejewski, now 16, claims he sang at twoyears-old. Music is his passion and, he hopes, will be his career.

The spring before the deepening of his voice, Andrzejewski said he was a “little ball of confidence.” Before puberty, he hit the extremely high notes with little effort. Brian Andrzejewski, the singer’s father, remembers his son’s voice deepening from first or second soprano to baritone. After the voice change, it took one year of struggling to regain a decent vocal range.

“I had to deal with the frustration of having to learn to sing again,” Andrzejewski said.

In the past three years, Andrzejewski auditioned for two reality shows that offer talented voices a national platform and professional coaching. He auditioned for the first, the “XFactor,” at the close of his freshman year. He wasn’t chosen to perform on the show, and that summer his voice changed.

Andrzejewski turned to his voice coach at the time, Janet Crenshaw. Crenshaw loves music.

The former music director for Carmel Repertory Theatre believes a voice is more than just notes; it’s about singing from the soul. She saw that quality in then 12-year-old Andrzejewski as he performed “Music Man” on stage in 2009.

“He caught my eye,” Crenshaw said. “He had a spirit about him. I could tell he enjoyed what he did, and if he could be tweaked, he’d be better.”

Crenshaw admired Andrzejewski’s voice and offered to work with him. He accepted the offer. As his vocal coach, she was there to comfort Andrzejewski during moments of distress and frustration. She did her best to calm Andrzejewski and gave him exercises to transition the break in his voice. More importantly, Crenshaw listened. She heard the potential in the voice but understood that half the battle was renewing confidence.

“It was really traumatic for him,” Crenshaw said.

Andrzejewski was determined. He came to voice coaching sessions ready. He soon found that he could sing again. The self-confident child had changed and developed a maturity to match the new voice. He understood vocal chords were muscles that needed exercise and training.

“Everything just came along with such ease,” Andrzejewski said. “I now have to work hard and practice a lot. It’s so different and so hard to adjust. When everything comes so naturally and then all of a sudden you can’t do it as easily anymore – it’s hard.”

Andrzejewski also had support at home. The Andrzejewski home is a diverse environment, but that is how his parents, Ann and Brian, like it for their three young men. The couple’s approach to raising a family is to encourage their sons to pursue various interests. Their eldest plays on Purdue’s baseball team and the second

works in technology. That leaves Andrzejewski, the artist.

“My role is to stay out of his way and let him develop,” his father said. “[The policy is] we don’t care what you do. Find what you’re passionate about and stick with it.”

Brian, a former member of the U.S. Air Force, and his wife cheer their three boys on in their pursuits. Ann approached Jan Miller, owner of Jan’s Village Pizza, in January of this year.

Ann thought her son needed more experience.

The Millers only knew the Andrzejewskis as customers and had no idea Andrzejewski sang.

Miller remembers hearing good reviews from Andrzejewski’s classmates, who worked for her.

“I took a chance on it, and we’ve really enjoyed him,” Miller said.

Miller made room for Andrzejewski to sing by the front window so he faced those eating at the pizza and ice cream parlor. He sang every Friday night after Westfield High School football games. The experience was helpful, as he

learned to set up a microphone, chat with the crowd and know which songs fit the mood of the audience.

“It’s what I could call my first gig,” he said.

“I learned so much from a little place here in Westfield.”

In late spring of 2012, Andrzejewski made it to the blind auditions for The Voice in Los Angeles in front of the four celebrity mentors – Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine, Blake Shelton and CeeLoo Green – but no chairs turned around. He appreciated the coaching he received in Los Angeles and anticipates returning to pursue his career in music.

“By spending a few weeks this summer in LA preparing for the blind auditions, he made a great network of friends and fellow artists (some with a great deal of experience in the industry) that quickly became like family,” his mother wrote in an email.

Training his voice was easy compared to finding a style that he could call his own. While in Los Angeles, coaches encouraged him to find a style of music that defined him. To move forward in the music world, he needed to find a genre that echoed his personality and passion.

Andrzejewski compares his newfound style to that of Jason Mraz. He likes the style because it is “just as much fun to sing it as it is to listen to it.”

For Andrzejewski, the journey of finding his voice has been a trial and a treasure. He reflects on the year that his voice changed as a time of growth. It was a time of losing his old identity and gaining a new and fresh perspective on his goals with music.

“It’s challenging and rewarding,” he said. “It’s challenging because I want to be good at what I do. It’s rewarding because I’m doing it, and I love it. It’s my passion. Though there are bumps in the road, it’s something I will continue to do.” www.currentinwestfield.com

Opinion Pence right on taxes; now, return surplus

Indebted It is our position that selling bonds to refinance the City of Carmel’s redevelopment debt was the right thing to do. Carmel’s refinancing bonds sold at 3.24 percent, for a total savings through refinancing of $75 million. The sale included taxable and taxexempt bonds. It is certainly a vote of confidence in the city’s financial stability that the bonds sold quickly during one of the worst recessions in years. Standard & Poor’s said the outlook on Carmel’s AA+ bond ratings was “stable” and should remain the same for the two-year outlook due to Carmel’s “detailed focus on long-term planning” and the city’s “healthy economy,” and the city’s fiscal management was described as “good.”

The question remains, “What is a normal amount of debt for a city to carry without raising taxes?” And, it appears that since Carmel agreed to provide a general property tax back-up to obtain a lower interest rate that a property tax hike could, but probably won’t, happen. With all the “sexy” redevelopment projects occurring in Hamilton County, we must continue to maintain vital infrastructure like exemplary schools, police and fire protection and aging neighborhoods to continue to attract and keep the caliber of tax payer/resident necessary to “fuel the redevelopment fire.”

Exemplar Commentary by Terry Anker Famed basketball coach Ron Meyer is quoted as saying, “Your example’s not the main thing, it is the only thing.” While I don’t subscribe to the belief that life’s complexities can be reduced to a slogan that would comfortably fit on a bumper sticker, aphorisms do serve a valuable purpose. They allow us to separate a single thought upon which to focus our attention from the din of our daily routines.

Is it true that the example we set, whether for our own children or for the communities in which we live, is the “only” thing?

Can we disregard all the other variables that define a person and chose to draw sweeping conclusions from a single attribute? Would it be more accurate to say that setting a good example is a “good” thing, and setting a bad example is a “bad” thing?

Certainly, the example that we set is routinely followed by those behind us. A father who abuses his children routinely raises

children who become abusers. An employer who fails to foster trust within her company can rarely rely upon the trust of her staff, even when essential. Yet, can we hope to control the model we are leaving behind?

Does perception solely lie with perspective?

Or does our reputation rely upon an average – not the events of a single day but instead the accumulated effort of a life’s work? And if we fail to set a clear and positive path, can we recover from the failure to restore our trajectory?

In spite of seemingly ever more complicated lives, is it possible that some things are not as difficult to get our hands around as we might indulge ourselves to believe? And if so, what is the example that we want to leave behind?

“Government should only collect what it needs.” So said Indiana Gov. Mike Pence during his State of the State address last Tuesday.

We could not agree more. Pence proposed a 10-percent, across-the-board cut in Indiana’s personal income tax rate from 3.4 percent to 3.06 percent. After the cut, Pence said, “Indiana will be the lowest-taxed state in the Midwest.”

We’ve heard arguments against this proposal, with some of the concerns coming from his Republican party. There’s concern in the party and elsewhere that we need to maintain a surplus in a shaky economy, but, truth be told, whenever a government produces a surplus, it means one thing: Its citizens have been overtaxed. Are we to trust our government with that surplus, or does it make sense to give that money back to hard-working Hoosiers? You probably know where we stand on that. So, Gov. Pence, give it back, and let that be the first step in eliminating the tax altogether. Should the state economy slow, then state government needs to cut back, just like the rest of us have to do in our personal lives when times get tough. History is undeniably clear; when government has money available, it will be spent. Let’s remove temptation.

••• While testifying last week before Congress for the first time since the Sept. 11 attacks in Benghazi that left four Americans dead, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton actually took responsibility for the failures that led to those deaths, but not before ripping Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) with this: “Of course it was a terrorist attack! …

We had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest or because of guys out for a walk one night and decided to go kill some Americans?

At this point what difference does it make, Senator?” It makes a difference, Mrs. Secretary, because the truth matters. To us.

Isn’t this dog his dream?

Commentary by Danielle Wilson As most of you know, my husband Doo recently fulfilled his dream of owning a Labrador puppy named Libby. For me, however, she’s more of a living nightmare. Here’s where we currently stand: The fun started Friday with the spaying of the aforementioned Libby. I came home from work to find Doo on the floor soothing a very sad, very drugged-up dog. She didn’t even bark; just a pathetic whimper as she stared at me through her protective post-surgery cone of shame. In that moment, I actually felt sorry for her.

The feeling passed quickly though as Doo jumped up and said, “Well, I’m off to dinner with my parents. Don’t let her run, don’t let her play, watch for vomiting and fever. I’ll be back later.� Whaaaat? Yes, his brother was visiting from out of town, but how is it fair to make me the primary nursemaid to a pet I never wanted mere hours after she’d had her mommy parts removed and well-before I’d had a chance to funnel a goblet of wine? Why does Doo get to swig margaritas while I’m left to worry that I might accidently let “his baby� bleed out?

I survived the evening, as did Libby, though I’m not proud of the choice words I had for Doo (so much for that New Year’s Resolution).

By the following morning though, I’d gotten

over the whole mess and was fairly helpful (and tolerant) the rest of the weekend.

Then Monday morning arrived with extreme puppy yelping. Shoving Doo, I told him to go take care of “his dog.� He refused. “She just wants to play. She’ll go back to sleep.� Fine.

Only she didn’t. 3:30, more barking, more shoving. In fact, every thirty minutes until six, highpitched yaps resonated through the house followed by the low mutterings of supposed reason from my husband.

When I finally stumbled downstairs for coffee, I was greeted by a scene that brought back Godforsaken memories of twin toddlers left alone too long with dirty diapers. Libby hadn’t wanted to play; she’d needed to go outside! Her kennel had three separate “accident� piles. Gagging from the stench, I marched back upstairs and LET DOO HAVE IT. I realized later I might have been overly dramatic and apologized. But I’m still harboring some resentment over the fact that I seem to be the one having to deal with all of the dog issues.

At least I can safely complain to all of you. I, and I’m sure Doo, thanks you! Peace out.

Body of proof

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Now that I’m almost 66, I’m starting to worry about my abs. I don’t remember worrying about my abs in the ’80s or the ’90s. Actually, I don’t remember anything about the ’80s and ’90s.

That’s something else to worry about.

Abs, by the way, refers to your abdominal muscles. If you thought those were called ams, you probably need to learn a little lingo before you hire a personal trainer.

Surveys show that most people hate at least one part of their body. All magazines display perfect male and female bodies. I believe that if you contacted a reputable gastroenterologist, he would tell you that people who have stomachs as flat as those in the photos cannot digest food.

I hate my own stomach, or more correctly, my belly. This is where my abs are supposed to be, but instead it looks like a foam rubber pillow there. When I see men with six-pack abs, I want six-pack abs, too. I usually just settle for a six-pack. I think you see the problem.

For a long time, I hated my hair. People kept asking me if I was losing my hair. Not really. I knew exactly where it was. In the sink. About 15 years ago, I had a hair transplant, which is

sort of like what happens when a very sick person dies. “He’s gone to a better place,” people often say. That’s the same with my hair. I don’t have more of it, but what I do have they put in a better place. I’m sure that’s more information on this than you really need.

I’m also not happy with my ears. I think they stick out more than they should. My wife says I’m crazy and to be that obsessed with my own looks makes me seem very elfish. She meant selfish. I guess Freud wasn’t all wrong. After President Obama was elected, I felt a lot better about this.

I also think my arms are too skinny, my thighs are too heavy and my eyes are too deepset. My shoulders aren’t broad, and my chin is weak.

The interesting thing is that if you were walking down the street and saw me, you’d probably say, “Hey, he’s not a bad looking guy.”

Now you know better.

Don’t follow barium with Chinese food, seriously Commentary by Mike Redmond

“Here,” said the nice lady in the scrubs.

“Drink this.”

She handed me a cup of what looked like thin spackle. Tasted like it too.

Mmm. Barium for breakfast.

The occasion was a full work-up at a local hospital – a chance to look at all of my systems and see which ones were okay, which ones were underperforming and which were – well, I was going to say operating beyond expectations, but that doesn’t seem likely at my age.

The day began way too early and way too hungry. You have to be fasting for this sort of thing, you know – the old “nothing to eat or drink after midnight” routine. They mean it, too. Bite a fingernail and they’ll tell you to come back when you can follow the rules.

The fasting thing is tough for me. For as long as I can remember, I have been a person who wakes up hungry. When I was a kid, I was known for jumping out of bed and going straight for my cereal bowl, getting the Quisp dished and the milk poured, and only then remembering that it might have been wise to visit the bathroom first.

So I was not in the best of moods to begin www.currentinwestfield.com

with when the large array of medical mechanics began enacting their voodoo rituals on me.

It started with giving blood. Lots of it. After that came the electrocardiothingie, where they stick rheostats onto your body and wire you up like a Silvertone console radio. I could have made it a lot easier on everyone by trimming my chest hair. No need, said the lady putting on the stickers. “Yes need,” I said when she pulled them off and took large clumps of fur with them.

Then came the crowning achievement of the day, the upper GI X-rays with the aforementioned barium breakfast. If you’d like to try this at home, simply blend 12 pieces of blackboard chalk with a quarter cup of water. Gulp it down and you can spend the rest of the day feeling like you have a big hunk of modeling clay trying to move through your system.

(Note: Do not eat a large Chinese dinner on top of this stuff. Trust me on this one. I was up all night muttering various imprecations in Mandarin, a language I didn’t know I spoke.)

Love or hate musicals, this one’s for you

By Robert Herrington robert@youarecurrent.com The Actors Theatre of Indiana will kick off the second half of its 2012-2013 season Friday with “Musical of Musicals (The Musical!),” the gut-busting musical parody that has charmed three continents.

The “Musical of Musicals (The Musical!)” is a musical about musicals. In this satire of musical theatre, one story becomes five musicals, each written in the distinctive style of different masters of the form, from Rodgers and Hammerstein to Stephen Sondheim.

“If you love musicals, you’ll love it because you’ll see a lot of things you’ll enjoy that poke gentle fun in a loving way. If you hate musicals, you’ll love it because it makes fun of all the things you hate. It’s enjoyable for two different points of views,” Director Richard J. Roberts said. “It’s five little shows that are each 10 to 15 minutes long. It’s constantly changing so you won’t get bored.”

The musical stars four seasoned performers: ATI founders Cynthia Collins, Don Farrell and Judy Fitzgerald, as well as Dave Ruark, who is making his ATI debut. Assisting Roberts with musical direction is Brent Marty.

“We have a terrific batch of people. Everyone in the show knows the musical theatre world, has seen all of the shows,” Roberts said.

“The entire team is an all-star team,” Farrell said of the cast and crew. “When you have all of these people involved it’s immensely funny.”

Hotel Transylvania • PG, 91 minutes Commentary by Chris Lloyd Even in an extraordinarily weak year for animation, “Hotel Transylvania” did not receive an Academy Award nomination for best animated feature. And it’s no surprise: this derivative monster tale featuring Adam Sandler is a Frankenstein-like assemblage of bits ‘n’ pieces from other movies.

Actually, Frankenstein himself is here (voiced

by Kevin James), along with Dracula (Sandler), the Wolfman (Steve Buscemi), the Mummy (CeeLo Green) and a rogues’ gallery of every other creature feature from the past 80 years.

The set-up is that they’ve all come to the hotel for their once-a-year celebratory bash, centered around the birthday of Dracula’s daughter, Mavis (Selena Gomez).

Mavis is in her rebellious teenage phase – it

INDIANAPOLIS

happens around age 118 for vampires – and wants to venture forth and see the world. But Drac and the rest of the gruesome crew say it’s too dangerous, what with all the humans out there with their torches, pitchforks and paranoia. Then the red-blooded problem arrives on their doorstep in the form of Jonathan (Andy Samberg), a dim-witted backpacker dude.

The animators did their job creating a visually vibrant world, but the script has all the life of a vampire with a stake through its heart.

Can surgery remedy my tired looking eyes?

Commentary by Dr. Barry Eppley Q: Dr. Eppley, I have very thin skin under my eyes and they are puffy. I always look so tired and worn out. Just curious if surgery could correct this?

A: The puffiness under your eyes is a common problem and is due to intraorbital fat that is now sticking out. This is a typical development that occurs as we age. Normally the fat around the eyeball is contained behind the eyelids by certain supportive tissues. As we age these tissues weaken and the fat begins to protrude against the lower eyelid. This creates lower eyelid puffiness or bags. With time, these lower eyelid bags can become quite pronounced.

Because fat has a high content of water, these eye bags may be bigger in the morning or after eating foods with high salt contents. While some people have these bags naturally even as early as their teens, most people develop them to varying degrees after the age of 40 or so.

This fat removal is a common component of most lower eyelid blepharoplasty procedures. If one does not have any or too much loose skin, the fat can be removed from inside the eyelid.

When loose and sagging skin needs to be removed and tightened as well, an external trans-

cutaneous lower blepharoplasty technique is used. Both techniques can result in a significant change that remedies that tired look.

Q: Dr. Eppley, I would like information about breast augmentation. I have breastfed two of my children and my breasts sag considerably. I compare them to a much older woman. It is very difficult to buy bras that fit well without padding, and I am not happy with the way I look shirtless. I would like to know about my options.

A: Based on your own description of ‘my breasts sag considerably,’ it sounds like you would need some type of a breast lift if implants were placed. Breast implants have no capability of lifting up a breast and moving the nipple to the center of the breast mound if the starting position of the nipple is below the lower breast fold. Therefore you have to think about the trade-off of scars for fuller and uplifted breasts.

You will also have to consider whether you would want saline versus silicone breast implants. I would be happy to look at any pictures that you want to send to give you a more exact recommendation. But for now, I will assume that you need full breast lifts with implants.

WHAT TO EXPECT: Real Estate Issues and Refinancing In many divorce cases, retaining possession of a certain asset can be emotionally charged for one or both parties. Frequently, the most emotionally-charged asset for division is the marital residence. While division of personal property, including furnishings, decorations, and the general items accrued during the period of the marriage is inherently difficult; typically, the most difficult decision for divorcing couples involves the marital residence. Memories, both good and bad, are encompassed within the house and the financial investment one or both parties made to acquire same can all lead to positions and decisions based primarily on emotion and sometimes overlook both practicality and feasibility. However, a marital residence is a significant asset and there are a number of ways in which these issues may be resolved.

Staying in the Residence. If the parties can agree that one of them will stay in the marital home and the other will vacate, the most immediate practical issue is to determine if both parties are on the mortgage and the deed to the residence. If so, a significant consideration will be when the retaining spouse is able to refinance the property, removing the other spouse’s name from the mortgage, transferring the deed, and retaining sole liability on the new mortgage. For the departing spouse, this is essential to consider, as the decree itself does not provide any defense against a mortgage company not receiving payments and seeking foreclosure. In today’s climate, however, practicality requires that the parties take an intelligent look at their finances and arrive at a reasonable time frame. It is also unlikely that the departing spouse will be able to obtain a mortgage of their own so long as they are attached to the marital residence. Depending on the value of the home, a refinance can also provide an influx of cash to influence other division within the marital estate.

Given that many houses are currently upside down against their value, it should also be considered that a spouse who retains such a residence is, essentially, taking over a marital debt and not a marital asset.

Selling the Marital Residence. An obvious option to dealing with a marital residence in a divorce would be to sell it.

www.currentinwestfield.com

Current in Westfield

While this has the appearance of a simpler solution, the sale of a residence under these circumstances, like any other, requires finding a buyer and obtaining a price sufficient to satisfy all mortgages and liens on the property. Otherwise, the parties will have to come to the closing to pay off the remainder of a mortgage. Under the best circumstances, the parties jointly agree to the use of a qualified realtor and do everything possible to put the house in saleable shape. A successful sale of a house with equity can also result in a cash influx to both parties to obtain new residences or offset debts. In the current economic state, however, it is more significant to be certain that the house can be sold for what is owed before worrying about how the profits might be divided. A secondary issue of this is occupancy of the residence while it is up for sale; obviously, regular maintenance, cleaning, and availability for open houses, inspections, and all elements of the sales process are incumbent on the person who will occupy the house. During this interim period, the mortgage will need to be paid, the utilities kept up to date and all of the normal expenses. How these are divided until the house can be sold must be a consideration in any negotiation unless, during the divorce, as the parties are lucky enough to obtain a buyer.

Renting the Home. If a home will be difficult to sell, and neither party wishes to reside there, the parties could enter into an agreement by which they rent the home to a third person.

Again, careful negotiations will be required to deal with the maintenance issues, division of rent payments and overall responsibility for upkeep on the residence. With home values where they are and difficulty refinancing prevalent, this is an option that many divorcing couples are forced to consider.

Community Physician Network joins Measure Up, Pressure Down campaign – Community Physician Network has joined more than 120 medical groups and health systems on a new national campaign aimed at improving high blood pressure prevention, detection and control. Called Measure Up, Pressure Down, the campaign leverages the coordinated care delivery systems of members of the American Medical Group Association, who have pledged to work toward achieving a goal of having 80 percent of high blood pressure patients in control of their condition by 2016.. “We are thrilled to be collaborating with healthcare groups across the nation to keep our patients with high blood pressure in the best health possible,” Pat Rankin, M.D., chief medical officer at CPN, said. “The Measure Up, Pressure Down campaign offers a team approach to diagnosing and treating a common health risk factor, so we can help our patients achieve better outcomes.” According to a recent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study, one in three, or 68 million U.S. adults have high blood pressure and less than half of patients have their condition adequately controlled. High blood pressure contributes to nearly 1,000 deaths a day and accounts for an estimated $156 billion in health care services, medications and lost productivity.

Business

Some policies automatically restrict coverage Commentary by Andy Warren Question from Shirley B. from Fishers: My mother recently had her jewelry box stolen and didn’t find out until she filed a claim that there was a set limit on how much she could claim in stolen jewelry. This limit was not adequate to replace what she lost. Is this common?

Response from Andy Warren: I hate to hear that about your mother’s claim. Unfortunately, that situation is very common. A standard homeowner’s insurance policy automatically restricts coverage on a variety of different types of property. The other problem that can happen is your personal property limit being used up by items that your policy did not include in the first place.

You can avoid these problems by meeting face to face with your independent insurance agent to create a scheduled personal property endorsement and adding it your homeowner’s policy.

The schedule can include anything you want to include, but many of the items below are typical.

You have automatic coverage for newly acquired property, but be sure to update your schedule to include any new property within 30 days.

Some of the common property classes excluded or limited by your policy: • Jewelry, watches, furs and precious or semiprecious stones. The typical limit is $1,500.

Schedule these items.

• Musical instruments, cameras, silverware, golf equipment, fine art. These items

are not usually limited, but can eat up your personal property limit very quickly.

Schedule these items.

• Cash, bank notes, coins, precious metals that are not jewelry. The policy limit on these items is typically around $200. Keep this stuff in the bank or a safe deposit box.

• Securities, evidences of debt, letters of credit, manuscripts, personal records, passports, tickets and stamps (including computer software). The limit for this property class is typically around $1,500. The limit includes the cost to research, replace or restore information from the lost or damaged materials.

• Watercraft of any kind, including trailers, equipment and motors. You should have a separate policy for a boat, but your home policy typically sets aside $1,500 if you don’t.

• Property of roomers, boarders and other tenants. This type of property is excluded.

They need a Renters Insurance Policy.

This list is not comprehensive, so please make sure you meet with your independent agent to discuss any additional concerns you may have.

Nearing the end of the voting, the losing contestant said with some tone, “I going to be vice!” I didn’t really hear what she said, so I asked her to repeat it, “I said, I’m going to be vice!” I asked my seven-year-old little girl what she meant. She said, “I’m going to be Vice Cake Boss!”

During the holidays, both little girls decided they wanted to make a cake. Not any ordinary cake, but a special cake of their own creation.

Not with any run-of-the mill ingredients, but instead their own custom ingredients. The winner, I decided, would be selected by voting on the best tasting cake. We would travel with both cakes through our neighborhood until both were eaten. At each stop, the surprise judges would vote for their favorite cake by secret ballot. The winner would be proclaimed the Cake Boss! And, apparently, my oldest daughter assumed that second place was Vice Cake Boss.

Each contestant would, of course, require some assistance. I agreed to help each with a grocery

list, the shopping and the cooking. Each wouldbe Cake Boss had three hours in the kitchen to make their vision come to life. The competing cakes included a Pancake Cake and, the eventual winner, a Candy Cain Cake. The Pancake Cake was made with nine pancakes from scratch each held in place by a layer of chocolate and fresh whipped cream. This little gem was topped with more whipped cream and fruit. The Candy Cain Cake started with the messy business of breaking 20 candy canes with a hammer. The result was like eating a peppermint with a bit of cake – the creator truly was the Cake Boss.

Things that have never been done before might just be things that haven’t been tried.

The willingness to experiment, explore and take some calculated risks are necessary ingredients of success. Being the boss of anything requires imagination and innovation.

Grammar Guy

‘I’ve got’ a problem?

Commentary by Jordan Fischer QUESTION: Jordan, I was a medical transcriptionist for more than 28 years. There is nothing that upsets me more than to hear someone say ,”I’ve got.” An example: “I’ve got 12 teddy bears in my bedroom.” This sounds like, “I have got…”

This sounds wrong to me. What is the proper usage here? – Peggy Baker ANSWER: Thanks for writing in, Peggy. I have an inkling that you may be right on this one.

Before we jump into the whole phrase, let’s examine each verb individually. The verb “have” expresses ownership or obligation: If you have a car, you have to be insured to drive it. In the first instance, “have” is used as a transitive verb, meaning it requires an object. In this case, the object is the car. In the second instance, “have” is used as an auxiliary verb along with the infinitive “to be” to express obligation. It can be used in this manner with all sorts of infinitives: I have to go; I have to eat; I have to brush my teeth.

“Got” is the past tense of the verb “get,” which means to obtain. Since “get” is irregular, “got” is also the past participle of the verb – although in the U.S., we sometimes use “gotten” as the past participle. “Got” can be used as a transitive (“I got my paycheck”), intransitive (“I got into the building”) or auxiliary verb (“I got caught in the act.”).

And so, we’ve arrived at “have got,” which is the present perfect construction of the verb

“get.” The present perfect is a compound tense used to describe something that has already happened, but which has lingering effects. The present perfect is formed by combining the verb “have” with the perfect aspect of a verb. In this case, our verb is “get” and the perfect aspect is “got” (British) or “gotten (American). I personally think “gotten” feels a little awkward, but they are both technically correct.

Now, you might be saying, “’I have got to go’ doesn’t sound like a past event.” And you would be correct. Although the construction of “have got” is that of the present perfect, it is almost always used as though it is present or simple present. Additionally, as in the example at the beginning of the article, the “have” is typically contracted, leaving us with “I’ve got” – an irregular, idiomatic expression that, while not formal usage, is frequently used with infinitives to show emphasis in common speech. For example: “I have GOT to go” versus “I have to go.” The transitive use, however, is less forgivable. Saying, “I have got 12 teddy bears,” adds no extra meaning beyond what saying, “I have 12 teddy bears,” would accomplish. And anyway, it’s already 11 more teddy bears than I have.

These are facts!

Crafting

Getting ahead of Valentine’s Day

72% of women feel they work a “2nd

Commentary by Ashley Phipps Have you heard of Pinterest? It is an amazing visual site for finding an enormous amount of fabulous ideas, crafts, do-it-yourself projects and recipes. So naturally, I am addicted to it. But, Pinterest has officially made me feel late for Valentine’s Day. And it’s not even February.

Just sayin’ So I took a trip to the dollar store, gathered a few supplies and a pretty can of pink spray paint from the hardware store and got to work making my first Valentine’s Day craft this year! A really cute and really simple Heart Candy Dish on a pedestal!

To make one of these pedestal candy dishes, you will need: • Heart Dish (I found mine at the Dollar Tree Store) • Glass Candlestick Holder (from the Dollar Tree Store) • E6000 Glue • Spray Paint (I used Rust-Oleum in Berry Pink) First, you’ll need to spray paint the glass candle stick holder.

Tip: Turn your candle stick holder upside down to spray paint it. This will avoid getting paint on the top of the candle stick holder. If too much paint gets on there, the glue won’t stick as well.

After the paint has dried, use E6000 to adhere the candle stick holder to the heart dish.

Tip: Lay a few heavy books on top of the heart dish while the glue dries for at least several hours. This will ensure a secure bond.

Now your heart candy dish is ready to fill with your favorite Valentine’s Day treats.

High voltage design trends Commentary by Vicky Earley Color shock is here! The muted, soft tones that were coveted for a number of years are taking a back seat to intense, high voltage color.

The Emerald Green Pantone color of the year is just the parade marshal. Expect also to see brilliant tangerine, sapphires, crisp yellows, and shocking reds.

Running with these intense hues is still too much for a large sofa, but pillows, textiles, chairs, rugs and walls will no longer sit back and whisper. No, it is an all-out color splurge.

This playful approach to design looks fabulous when paired with a grounding color. Typically, one patterned fabric starts the color story and the colors are repeated in geometric and solid prints. The grounding color binds all the color, pattern, and texture together for a splendid color vignette.

Just when you thought grey, brown and black were the only grounding colors, white walked through the door and there is we start feeling the modern vibe. White and black are as sophisticated and glamorous as always.

A different floor decoration – If a rug isn’t an option, consider making up some stencils and painting a room’s floor for a different and custom solution. Expect that project to take a long time, though. – www. miamiherald.com

Since vibrant tones usher a playful room mood, expect the unexpected in patterns. Large scale chevrons are everywhere, both in starring roles and as a backup. Oversized toile is an exciting addition.

Some combinations for the design aficionado that wants to be current would be sienna, azure, sapphire paired with taupe, emerald green and bumblebee yellow paired with charcoal, or teal, coral, lemon yellow, and lipstick paired with ivory.

If you are not inclined toward investing in a trend but crave the color in your life, remember that pillows and ottomans offer the temporary trend fix and are easily changed later.

Wall and ceiling color can provide an easy color fix, as well.

Without a doubt, 2013 will be the year of the bold and beautiful color, complete with high voltage and energy.

Coffee table options – Consider investing in a tiered coffee table to maximize space in the living room. The space below can hold more organizational apparatuses. – www.bhg.com

Creating warmth doesn't have to be costly

Commentary by David Decker

The holidays are over, which means we’ve reached the heart of the chilly winter months. It also means that it’s that time of year when many people spend their days inside the home trying to keep cozy while wrapped in blankets or sitting in front of the fireplace. Avoid the winter blues and implement a few of these ideas to make your space as warm as possible.

Fireplaces are a winter staple, and new models can even be equipped with a remote control.

These remote systems function using a receiver that signals the gas to ignite, making it easier than ever to start a comfy fire. Fireplaces can add a beautiful, functional touch to the living room, but also look great in both bathrooms and kitchens.

During the winter, the bathroom can often be one of the coldest rooms in the house, but it doesn’t have to be. Warm up by relaxing in a hot bath (bubbles and aromatherapy are optional, but highly recommended). Or, if you have dry skin, try taking a steam shower. Saunas have been shown to relax muscles, increase blood flow, moisturize skin and cleanse pores. And luckily, new kits are available on the market that make installation simple.

It’s certainly not fun to step out of a hot shower and be greeted by a blast of chilly air and frigid tile flooring. Soften the shock by install-

heated) flooring.

Here are a few simple ways to bring some warmth into the kitchen. Color can subconsciously make us feel warmer even if the actual thermostat hasn’t moved. Try to bring warm colors such as red, orange, yellow or brown into the room through flowers, pillows or other small decorative elements. Humidity can also make a room feel warmer and more comfortable. So try boiling a pot of water laced with liquid potpourri on the stove, which will make the room smell wonderful and eliminate dry indoor air.

As you can see, you don’t necessarily have to invest a great deal of money to keep your home toasty warm. It just takes a little creativity and few elements of warmth to get you through the snowy, winter months.
