ISP inspectors give district buses high marks editorial@youarecurrent.com

Students are not the only ones receiving top grades at Westfield Washington Schools. For 16 years in a row all of the district’s school buses passed the annual inspection conducted by the Indiana State Police. The district’s 80 buses were “approved” by the ISP inspectors meeting all of the prescribed safety requirements and received a valid certificate of inspection.

The buses now proudly display the approved decal which indicates the bus passed inspection without any defects and is ready to transport children. The inspectors examined every aspect of the bus, including steering mechanisms, brakes, exhaust systems, interior and exterior lighting as well as the cleanliness of the bus.

Transportation Director Jack Hart is extremely proud of his team of mechanics headed by Chuck Abel, head mechanic, and mechanics Russell Bliss, James Hart and Jason Scherer. The mechanics are responsible for the year round maintenance of the fleet.

“They do an outstanding job maintain-

Fire Day cancelled – Since using lots of water is a big part of the Westfield Washington Public Library Fire Day, Wednesday’s program has been cancelled because of the mandatory water conservation. Since the water levels are not likely to improve before school starts, this program will not be rescheduled.

ing our school bus fleet,” said Hart. “The state inspection verifies their commitment of ensuring the buses are in top condition to safely transport our students.”

The mechanics are responsible for the maintenance of 101 school owned vehicles

and approximately another 100 vehicles belonging to the city of Westfield. The school and the city have an agreement for fuel and maintenance and it has proven to be a win-win situation for both entities, but more importantly for the taxpayers.

Photo contest – The Partners & Friends of Hamilton North Public Library are taking entries for its annual photography contest, which is open to all residents of Hamilton County. Photo submissions may be dropped off at HNPL Cicero Branch, 209 W. Brinton St., from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. today and Wednesday. Judging will take place on Thursday. The photos will be displayed throughout the month of August.

All photos must be picked up by Sept. 8. For a complete listing of rules, divisions, and prizes, call 984-5623.

Keystone Parkway exit to U.S. 31 now closed – The northbound Keystone Parkway ramp to U.S. 31 closed yesterday, and will remain closed for 80 days as part of INDOT’s U.S. 31 Hamilton County project. The northbound Keystone Parkway ramp to 146th Street and Greyhound Pass via Lowes Way will remain open. (Shown.

Alternate route for northbound Keystone Parkway commuters seeking to reach Clay Terrace/146th Street.)

1 injured in ATV accident – An ATV accident sent one person to the hospital July 24. Firefighters and paramedics were called to 18160 U.S. 31 North at the Tractor Supply Company. Because the accident was off the road, additional all-terrain trucks were called to assist and the patient was then taken non-emergent to a local area hospital by ambulance.

DIVORCE – WHAT TO EXPECT: Going to Court In family law cases, there are times when a settlement between the parties is not possible.

Therefore, the parties must proceed to Court. In such circumstances, often the “fear of the unknown” is a major concern for clients. Most people do not have experience with court proceedings. In the event your case proceeds to a hearing, knowing what to expect (to the extent that is possible) in Court can help to ease your concerns.

Request the Hearing. With limited exceptions, a hearing will be scheduled upon the request of either party. The request for a hearing typically includes an estimate of the amount of time it is anticipated will be needed to present the evidence. If it appears settlement will be unlikely, it is advisable to request a hearing as soon as possible to ensure your hearing is scheduled promptly.

Be Prepared. Preparation is the key to going to trial.

While in Court, there is a limited time within which to present your evidence to the judge. Therefore, being prepared will ensure that you are able to present as much testimony and evidence as possible. It is important to meet with your attorney prior to any hearing to prepare your testimony and discuss what to expect at the hearing.

What to Wear? It is not necessary to dress in a suit when appearing in Court. Clean, conservative businesscasual dress is recommended.

Can My Child Testify? As a general matter, Court’s prefer to determine the issues of a case without the child’s

testimony. In the event a party would like the child to be interviewed by the judge only – rather than appear in front of all parties in the Courtroom – a party may request that the judge speak to the child in his office. There are many variables to consider in making such a request and you should consult with your attorney before making a decision.

The Day of the Hearing. When you arrive in the courtroom, you should ensure you are on time. It is likely that the parties to the case, their attorneys, the judge, and court staff will be the only individuals present in the Courtroom. When the judge enters, he/she will begin the proceeding and the Petitioner (the party requesting the hearing) will begin to present his/her case. At the close of the Petitioner’s case, the opposing party will present his/her evidence. When all evidence has been presented, the judge will consider the evidence and issue a ruling. This may be done in court immediately after the hearing, or at a later date if the judge takes the matter under advisement.

DC Tux to close at Merchant Plaza, move to 146th St.

By Jordan Fischer • jordan@youarecurrent.com DC Designers Tux Shop announced last week it will open a new “tuxedo haberdashery” store late this summer at Cool Creek Village on 146th St. in Carmel.

The men’s formal wear store, which has locations in Castleton and Carmel, at 622 Station Dr., has been serving the Indianapolis area since 1977.

Owner Pete Corbett said the business will close its Merchant Plaza location as part of the move, though the Castleton store will remain open.

“The 146th Street/Cool Creek area is a more conveniently central location for our client base, which includes Carmel, Westfield, Corbett Fishers, Noblesville and Zionsville,” he said. “We’re excited about the vibrancy of this great shopping area, and look forward to becoming part of it.”

The new location, Corbett said, will have special focus on the experience for the shopper.

“Our newest location will be decorated to create the ambience of an elegant men’s haberdashery, where our clients will receive personal attention down to the last detail of their gentlemen’s formal wear needs,” said owner Pete Corbett.

The shop is family owned and operated – Corbett runs the business with help from sons Don and Bill, daughter Kim and a number of grandchildren. Corbett said he’s seen generations of customers come to the shop as well.

“We are unique in that many of the young men we helped with prom tuxes in the 80s returned to us for their weddings, and are now bringing their sons to us for their prom tuxes,” he said. “It’s a lot of fun to see the generations!”

The new DC Designers Tux Shop will be located directly in front of LA Fitness in Cool Creek Village. The shop’s opening is scheduled for the beginning of August.

WWPL dreams big this summer

By Stephanie Simpson editorial@youarecurrent.com The Westfield Washington Public Library’s summer reading program is full of prizes. The program, which started on June 12 and ends August 18, has more than 400 adult participants and around 2,000 participants aged 18 and younger.

For each age category there is a sign-up prize, and three additional prizes when certain goals are met. For children in seventh grade and below, prizes are determined by how many hours they read. For teens, prizes are determined by how many books they read. All three age categories also offer a raffle entry for extra hours/books read. Prizes for this raffle include an iPad or Nook Color.

For every book an adult reads, they are entered into the raffle, which includes prizes of various gift certificates to local museums and restaurants.

However, the big raffle is available to everyone who completes the program, and this year’s prize is an Amazon Kindle Fire.

According to Rex Jones, a reference librarian, if patrons attend a class or program put on by the library, it counts as a book read. Additionally, on August 18 there is a program called “Identity Theft and You” at 2 p.m. This program is perfect for those patrons who need one more book to reach a prize.

“We want patrons to read more and increase foot traffic in the library,” said Jones.

“It’s also a nice way to give back to patrons for being part of the library.”

Kettler wins 4-H Fashion Revue

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

When planning her sewing project, Christy Kettler wanted to channel a New York/Los Angeles fashion girl with the wind blowing her hair a la the cover of Vogue magazine. Looking the part of a model, Kettler walked the catwalk to receive Grand Champion in the 4-H Fashion Revue.

“I’m a jeans and T-shirt girl who scoops poop and works with pigs,” she said. “I wanted to do something outside the box.”

Kettler is in her eighth year of 4-H. The Jackson Hot Shots 4-H Club member is a Westfield resident and will be a senior at Hamilton Heights High School this fall. She has participated in sewing projects every year of her 4-H career with the help of her mother, Tammy.

“It got started as a good bonding experience with my mom, who was a professional (seamstress) for awhile,” said Kettler. “It’s something fun we do together.”

For her outfit, Kettler picked out the fabric, pattern, shoes, belt and other accessories.

“This was the very first one I did all by myself,” she said. “It made it even better – it’s my own creation.”

The 4-H Fashion Revue includes six categories: formal wear, separates, suit or coat,

dress-up, free choice, and informal or casual wear, which was the category Kettler entered her Fourth of July summer themed outfit.

Kettler plans to attend Purdue University to major in agriculture. While she enjoys the lifelong lessons she’s learn from sewing, her passion lies with farming. But Kettler has at least one more project in mind after her 4-H days are over.

“I want to make my wedding dress,” she said.

Seconds later the 17-year-old Hamilton Southeastern senior heard her name.

“I was not expecting it at all,” Kimbrell said.

Kimbrell is the daughter of Keith and Lillian Kimbrell of Fishers. She said the best part of being on court was attending new projects and shows and becoming closer friends with other court members. The worst part was being on court and having animals at the fair. To care for her livestock, Kimbrell arrived an hour and a half earlier than other court members. Her days lasted from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. every day of the fair.

VIEWS

Opinion Volunteers move the agenda forward

Handicapable It is our position that those of us who are not handicapped need to be more considerate and stop using the handicap parking spaces. While it may seem more convenient to be able to park right next to the building as opposed to walking an extra twenty yards, the inconvenience is far greater if someone who needs the spot shows up and it is being used.

We urge those who have the tendency to park in these spots to stop, even if you are only going to be away from your car for a few minutes. Not only is it immoral, but it is also illegal. According to www.dmv. org, parking in a reserved spot without having the necessary plate or placard could get you a fine of at least $50.00. Under Indiana Law parking in a reserved spot without the proper credentials is a Class C misdemeanor.

Next time you or someone you’re in the car with has the urge to park in a handicap spot, please be respectful of those who need the spots and find another space. It may be a slight hassle to you but it will be nothing compared to what someone who needs the spot will go through.

Wanna write us a letter? You can do it a couple ways. The easiest is to e-mail it to info@ currentinwestfield.com. The old-fashioned way is to snail mail it to Current in Westfield, 30 South Range Line Road, Carmel, IN 46032.

Real real

Commentary by Terry Anker

Donald Trump moved the phrase “You’re fired!” from the personnel office to reality television. But in The Donald’s world folks go from the board room, to an elevator, to a waiting cab to be whisked away not to be seen again until some reality reunion gives them another moment of airtime. In real real life when people get the boot, there is no afterglow of residual fame to soften the blow, no career waiting at home to be resumed and no parting gifts. People suffer. After the walk of shame back to their desk, they gather their belongings – with or without the helpful oversight of a member of corporate security.

Next they leave their access cards, sign some paperwork and head to their car for the last time. No one celebrates their retirement. No one takes them for a farewell lunch at their favorite haunt. The newly unemployed drive from the lot and head home to share the news with waiting family.

Sometimes it happens with cause – the task and the laborer didn’t match. Sometimes it happens with circumstance – the role has changed and now three people can do the work of ten. And, sometimes it happens for what seems to be no real reason at all. Whatever might be the genesis, it rarely seems bearable at the time. I’ve been on both sides of this transaction and didn’t like it from either vantage point. But if we had to choose, wouldn’t more of us prefer to suffer the pain while drawing a paycheck? If we are fired, it is rough. Nothing makes it better. Well maybe, time, the support of family and a good plan can ease the pain. And if we have to be the bad guy, respect and sincerity are required – bad doesn’t have to be awful.

It’s impressive what volunteers do in our communities, it really is. We state that, because we’ve “lived” in their shoes. And the recent Hamilton County 4-H Fair is yet another example of the community coming together for the good of all. More than 200 adults volunteered their time to ensure projects were judged, shows came off without so much as a wrinkle, animals and kids were safe and secure and to make sure the fair itself was a continuance of the wonderful summertime tradition it is for our county.

Most volunteers use vacation days from their regular jobs in order to get in on the action, and many end up working far longer hours at the fair than they do for their employers; it’s an interesting dynamic, one with a “we’re not done yet” overtone, and it is exciting. No volunteer or Hamilton County 4-H Council member is paid a cent, but almost all of them were at the fairgrounds from morning to night. There was a buzz in the air, scant complaints about the heat and true excitement for what was being staged.

That’s what it’s all about. With only 9 people in the Hamilton County Purdue Extension Office, volunteers for this event were a certain necessity – especially when the county is not approving overtime for employees as it had done years ago. So, we ask you to join us in offering sincere thanks to all who donated time and talents to make the fair come together.

VIEWS Readers' views / Humor Reader says Rossetti is wrong about immunization Editor, Dr. Rossetti’s comments on immunization are completely irresponsible, and perhaps deadly, to those who follow her advice. No informed, responsible doctor would suggest that parents should skip vaccinations for their children.

There is no cure for polio, homeopathic or otherwise, but vaccines can prevent it altogether.

Vaccines are essential to protecting people’s lives and health, not only for the individual, but for others. When everyone gets vaccinated, it prevents the spread of infection to those who are too young or unable to be inoculated.

One needs only to look at the consequences of the anti-vaccine movement in affluent areas of

Chicago, Seattle, and Southern California to understand what happens when people don’t immunize their children. There were10,000 cases of measles and six deaths in one year in one community for an easily prevented illness.

In some cases, babies too young to be vaccinated were infected by children of the parents who made a “health choice” not to immunize. These babies became sick, and some died.

Rossetti would do well to review videos of children suffering from rubella and whooping cough as a result of not being vaccinated. I think she would change her mind on immunization quickly.

Also, vaccines do not cause Autism. Period.

Water conservation is not a water ban Editors, I wish you had not encouraged neighbors to report on each other if they see anyone in violation of the watering ban after you provided a very incomplete description of the mandatory watering conservation ordinance. In Section 5.

B. it states “that vegetable gardens, potted flowers, and newly installed landscaping (one year) may be watered every other day by container or hand-held hose equipped only with shut-off nozzle.” My neighbors may think they should report me because I have a vegetable garden and potted flowers I am watering every other day if

they need to be watered.

While I understand that this a serious situation and we need to conserve water I think this is best accomplished by the first part of your article, i.e. encouraging everyone to “do your part.” I do not think it is a good idea to encourage citizens to report violators, especially when you did not accurately report the watering restrictions.

Thank you for a great paper which all of my family really enjoy reading.

Fifty Shades of Gray Commentary by Danielle Wilson Well now! I just finished the controversial Fifty Shades of Gray by E.L. James, and I have to say, I can definitely understand what all the fuss is about. Spoiler alert: I may reveal more than you’d like to know, so now’s the time to skip over to another article if you plan to read it. And if you have a predetermined aversion to erotic literature and/or already think I’m going to hell in a Prada handbag, you should also turn the page.

On to the good stuff! Okay, first let me say that Fifty Shades is not going to win any major literary awards. The writing is subpar, almost immature, with too many repeated catch phrases and words for my liking. Ms. James is not even on the same planet as my beloved Nora Roberts.

I also didn’t like the main characters. Anastasia never did or said anything worthy of a strong protagonist, and was too insecure to make me care about her. And the only redeeming quality in Christian was his Calvin-Klein-underwearmodel body. He was simply a selfish punk most of the time. That being said, I do think Ms. James came up with an intriguing story of two people so different they couldn’t possibly NOT fall in love.

But let’s be honest, I didn’t buy the book for its purported literary prowess. When I finally got to the first sex scene (a too-long one hundred pages in), I was very thankful I hadn’t folwww.currentinwestfield.com

lowed my instincts and chucked it out the window. Oh. My. Lord. Is it hot in here? This ain’t for the faint of heart, and it certainly doesn’t contain your typical, flowery romance-novel scenarios. James holds no detail back and offers what I can only assume is a very accurate depiction of the S&M world of dominants and submissives, “chips, dips, chains and whips.” (Sorry, but Weird Science is the only exposure I’d had to this lifestyle prior to Fifty Shades!)

Sure, I felt wrong reading it in the company of my kids, but surprisingly empowered too: “Mommy’s reading her porn; make your own mac-n-cheese!” When I wasn’t suffering a hot flash or yearning for Doo, I wondered if I could ever be brave enough to try some of it myself.

I don’t have an answer yet, but I’m happy to know that there are more flavors than vanilla (wink, wink.)

In retrospect, I’m glad I read the book, as it seems most of you are who have emailed. Fifty Shades may not change your life, but it should provide some fascinating ideas to help jumpstart your libido. If nothing else, it’s a harmless, easy read with an endless amount of hilarious conversation fodder. Peace out.

Facelifts may need 'help' Commeantary by Dr. Barry Eppley Q: I had a facelift about six weeks ago. This was a very traumatic experience for me.

While my jowls and neck got better, my nasal folds and turned down corners of the mouth did not. They initially looked good while I was still swollen but that has now all gone away. This is very disappointing since this was one of the main reasons I had the operation. I feel like I wasted my money as my jowls and neck were not that bad.

A: This is a common misconception and occurs either as a result of inadequate education during the consultation or a failure to understand what a facelift does best on your part. Because the tissue pull of a facelift occurs from around the ears, it has the least effect on anything far away. The mouth area is the fur-

thest point from the ears on the face, thus deep nasolabial folds or a downturned corner of the mouth will ultimately remain unchanged. It is just biomechanically impossible to substantially change the center of the face from back in the hairline. This is an issue that has frustrated facelift surgeons for years and many techniques have been tried, few with much success. This is why adjunctive techniques are often done with facelift that address the mouth area directly, like fat injections and a corner of the mouth lift. These can be at the time of a facelift or afterwards as may be desired in your case.

“Total Recall” – In theaters Friday, a factory worker begins to suspect that he is a spy after visiting Rekall, a company providing clients with implanted memories of a life they would like to have led. Starring Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale and Bryan Cranston.

Three Ds Pub and Café combines coffee and breakfast with live music and evening drinks

By Christian Sorrell • christian@youarecurrent.com After 18 years, Mickey’s Irish Pub closed its doors earlier this month. Less than two weeks later, the same location reopened under the ownership of Erin Heller as Three Ds’ Pub and Café. Retaining much of the nightclub and bar atmosphere of the former business, Three Ds’ adds family dining, breakfast service, a full coffee bar and a smoke-free environment to the restaurant’s all-inclusive equation.

Heller, an Ohio native with family in Southern Indiana, is taking her life in a different direction with the opening of Three Ds’, her first business.

“I worked at the county auditor, as a jailor in Ohio and even a supervisor at Kmart,” said Heller. “I’ve had a bunch of different jobs over the years, and I decided it was finally time for me to do something that was really for me, what I wanted to do.”

Heller has always made fundraising and volunteering a part of her life. Heller was part

of Soroptimist, a worldwide organization for woman, while living in Seattle prior to her move to Carmel. With Three Ds’, Heller is working with local advocacy group Prevail, Inc. “I want to be sure that people know that 10 percent of our coffee sales go to Prevail for domestic violence victims,” said Heller.

Local bands will be performing live every Friday and Saturday in Three Ds’ sizeable back room. Throughout the week, the stage will also feature open mics, karaoke and even something Heller refers to as “open practice.”

“If a local band wants to start to get their name out, they can practice on our stage on Monday nights, get some exposure and see how they would do with patrons in the area,” said Heller. “All they need to do is call and schedule a time with us.”

Heller is planning on booking a variety of music on Three Ds’ stage beyond the normal rock outfits commonly seen performing across the Northside.

onstage here, including some country,” said Heller. “I’m really into rockabilly and bluegrass. I grew up on the punk scene so I’d like to get some of that in here as well.”

With the restaurant and both bars now open and operational, the work is far from done but Heller is pleased to be busy. ““I thrive on stress,” said Heller. “The more things I have going on at one time, the more I tend to get done.”

Three Ds’ Pub and Café is located at 13644 N Meridian St., Carmel (formerly Mickey’s Irish Pub). Hours are 6 a.m. to 3 a.m. Monday to Friday, 7 a.m. to 3 a.m. on Saturdays and 8 a.m. to midnight on Sundays. The restaurant features family friendly dining until 9 p.m. every night and is always nonsmoking. For more information, visit threedspubandcafe.com.

Madame Tussaud: A Novel of the French Revolution by Michelle Moran Commentary by Nancy Wiseman Readers’ Advisory Librarian, Carmel Clay Public Library Marie Grosholtz is a wax sculptor working in her family’s salon in Paris. After a visit to the salon from King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette, Marie is asked to teach the art of wax modeling to Madame Elizabeth, the sister of the King. Travelling weekly between workingclass Paris and the royal palaces at Versailles, Marie is privy to some of the secrets of the royal family and cleverly learns to play both sides.

The Grosholtz home is regularly visited by men who will be instrumental in beginning the French Revolution such as the Duc d’Orleans and Maximilien Robespierre. As the citizens in Paris rebel and frustration with the royal family and the French government leads to anarchy, Marie is imprisoned and asked to make death masks of guillotine victims – an offer she can’t refuse. While imprisoned she meets her future husband Francoise Tussaud.

Told in Marie’s voice, this even-paced, plotdriven novel will take the reader from the days preceding the French Revolution through the Reign of Terror. Marie’s sympathy toward the royal family makes for an interesting point of view. Many famous historical figures such as

Jean-Paul Marat and the Marquis de Sade appear in the novel, and endnotes let the reader know what happened to the novel’s major characters after the Revolution.

This novel received Library Journal’s Award for Best Historical Fiction 2011. Other titles by Michelle Moran include Nefertiti, The Heretic Queen, and Cleopatra’s Daughter. Read-alikes for Madame Tussaud are: The Hidden Diary of Marie Antoinette

by Carolly Erickson and The Many Lives and Secret Sorrows of Josephine B by Sandra Gulland.

IT'S GOLDEN Business turns medical ID bracelets into fashion statements

By Matthew Williams • editorial@youarecurrent.com Sen. Dick Lugar casts 13,000th Senate vote – Indiana Sen. Dick Lugar (R) cast his 13,000th vote in the U.S. Senate Wednesday. Lugar is the longest serving U.S. Senator in Indiana history, and in 10th place on the all-time Senate voting list.

Other members of that list include Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (D-MA) who cast 15,236 votes, and Sen. Robert C. Byrd (D-WV), who tops the list with 18,689. Lugar will retire from the Senate in January following his defeat in May’s primary election by Richard Mourdock.

Local senior community holds caregiver relief contest – Clare Bridge of Carmel is holding an essay contest for caregivers as part of their Caregivers Relief Program. The winner will receive a two-week respite stay at the community for their family member or loved one. To nominate the caregiver and their loved one, tell their story in an essay not to exceed 1,000 words in length. To submit a story or to read the rules and qualifications, see the following website: www.brookdaleliving.com/carefelief. Nominations will be accepts through Sept. 30. For more information, contact Janice A. Pegues, executive director at Clare Bridge of Carmel, at 317-580-0389.

Shelly Fisher hopes to transform medical ID bracelets from unattractive necessities to fashionable accessories, and she’s targeting Hamilton County and Central Indiana to do it.

Fishers’ business, Medical ID Marketplace, based in Philadelphia, offers those with chronic diseases or allergies a chic way to carry their medical information. Medical identication jewelry can be a life saver when worn during an emergency. However, many people don’t wear traditional bracelets to avoid being stigmatized.

“People don’t need to wear their disease on their wrist,” said Fishers. “Our company recognized the importance and lifesaving value of medical bracelets.

That’s why it was so important to create styles that people actually want to wear.

Fisher created Medical ID Marketplace in 2003. The company sells a variety of unique designs to cater to a

wide array of consumers. The company also offers more traditional styles, as well as pendant and “dog tag” jewelry options. The company is working to expand its offerings to include medical identification products that can be displayed in the home or office.

“We want to offer one stop shopping for identification,” say Fisher.

Medical identification jewelry is recommended for anyone who suffers from conditions such as diabetes, asthma, blood disorders and heart disease. It is also recommended for those with severe drug, food or insect allergies. Medical bracelets offer critical information for emergency situations where a patient is incapacitated and unable to explain hiscondition.

For now, displays can be seen and brochures obtained at Kroger stores in Carmel, Noblesville, Westfield and Fishers, and at other Kroger stores throughout Indiana. More information about the medical jewelry can be found online at www.medical-bracelet.com.

Scam artists targeting local seniors – Local senior care experts are urging families in North Indianapolis, Fishers and Carmel to be alert for scammers who may be targeting their senior loved ones with a variety of clever cons that could jeopardize not only their life savings but their independence.

“Scam artists are specifically targeting seniors because they are the fastest-growing segment of the population, which has led to increased demands on law enforcement agencies,” said Jeff Sewell, owner of the Home Instead Senior Care office in Indianapolis, serving North Indianapolis, Fishers and Carmel. As a result, the nonprofit National Association of Triads and the local Home Instead Senior Care office have launched a public information program called Protect Seniors from Fraud to educate families and seniors about how to protect themselves.

Information about the program is available online at ProtectSeniorsFromFraud.com. To obtain a free Senior Fraud Protection Kit, contact Home Instead Senior Care at 317-252-4472.

Protecting yourself from your pet Commentary by Jamie Ianigro Question from Billy S. from Noblesville: I’ve got a big friendly dog, but I’ve always worried about what would happen if she bit someone.

Am I protected if something like this happens?

Response from Jamie Ianigro: We all love our pets. They make great family members, playmates and protectors, but they are always causing problems for insurance companies. Nearly two million people are bitten by dogs each year with around 800,000 of those folks requiring professional medical treatment for their wounds. Each of these incidents is a potential lawsuit and happened to unsuspecting pet owners just like us.

Tens of millions of U.S. households own dogs and incidents show no sign of slowing down. A key factor that contributes to these incidents is the failure of dog owners to supervise and train their pets. Another problem is that many persons, especially children, do not know how to behave around dogs.

The best part about this issue is that you’re already protected if you have a homeowner’s insurance policy. Just make sure you have adequate limits to protect you from financial damage if you have an incident like this. I recommend that everyone have a minimum liability limit of $1,000,000. Adding an extra million in coverage with an umbrella policy is also a good idea and doesn’t cost as much as you might imagine.

Your liability limit is not just for pet attacks

either. It protects you from many unfortunate incidents like when a guest slips and falls in your driveway or when your kid accidently drives the lawn mower into the neighbor’s new Mercedes. Make sure you read your policy or go over it with your independent insurance agent to see what is excluded.

When you own a pet you have a responsibility to raise and handle your pet in a manner that reduces the chance of an incident. Steps to take include researching your breed and general principles of ownership and care. You should always make certain that family members, neighbors, guests and strangers are protected from your pet. You should check out the resources available to help, such as tips from animal shelters, dog ownership clubs, the American Kennel Club and, of course, the internet.

It may not be the fairest set of circumstances, but many insurers are choosing not to give dogs or their owners a fair chance. It is becoming more common for companies to refuse to write coverage for persons who own certain breeds of dogs. The breeds commonly excluded include Chows, Pit Bulls, Akitas, Rottweilers and Sharpeis. Therefore, you must fight this trend by not taking owning a pet lightly.

By Derek Fisher • derek@youarecurrent.com John Rose is the new owner of Bed and Biscuit Kennels, 3809 W. SR 32 in Jolietville, a business that’s well known in the community but has had many different iterations.

“For the last 13 years, it has been continuously operated as a boarding kennel,” he said of the facility, which he took possession of in April and re-opened in May. “It’s had a mixed history. It was built in the 1950s, was originally a breeding kennel and then was a dance hall. But recently, it’s been a full-time kennel.”

Rose said his operation is a boarding kennel for dogs as well as cats. Sitting on five acres, Bed and Biscuit features both indoor and outdoor kennels as well as a private park for boarding dogs and a three-acre public dog park.

The business, which cares for between 50 and 100 dogs each day, also offers grooming and pet daycare services but the dog park aspect is first and foremost on Rose’s mind at the moment.

“The city of Westfield has plans for its own dog park,” he said. “That’s scary for the small business owner, because there’s not much equity in the competition when you go up against government.”

Noting that the city doesn’t have to pay for its own permits or inspections and thus has an easier path to completion, Rose added that he was www.currentinwestfield.com

unsure if the market could support two large dog parks within two miles of each other.

“I’m not clear if my taxes go into the Parks and Recreation department, but that would be strange; it seems like I’m supporting my competition.”

Bed and Biscuit employs two full-time employees and 11 part-timers, and is open weekdays from 6:45 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday hours run from 7:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., and Sundays the business is operational from 3 to 6 p.m.

In September, Rose plans on offering a “Yappy Hour” on Saturday afternoons, which will be a free opportunity for the public to use the three-acre park.

The West is worth it Commentary by Tracy Line

It happened out of the blue: I fell in love…

With the state of Montana! My family has just returned from a fabulous vacation to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. It’s a trip we’ve been trying to make for five years. But as we all know life (read: time, commitments, money) sometimes gets in the way.

The trip did not disappoint. We all enjoyed the beauty the parks have to offer: mountains, waterfalls, geysers galore and of course lots and lots of wildlife. Yet as glorious as the Tetons are, as thrilling as it is to see a mama bear and her cub playing in a meadow, or bison grazing just outside our cabin, my heart now belongs to state of Montana.

I loved the people; they reminded me of Hoosiers. I loved the towns; friendly and quaint with a backdrop of the Absaroka Mountains. I loved the wide, open spaces. But most of all, I loved Beartooth Highway.

Charles Kuralt once called it “the most beautiful highway in America” and I’d have to agree.

Built in 1936, Beartooth is a section of highway 212 that runs between the cities of Cooke City and Red Lodge, Montana. To be fair, a good stretch of it zigzags into Wyoming; so I guess I love both states. It is one of the highest and

Laura, Austin & Liam Walls

Yellowstone National Park most rugged areas in our country, and not for the faint of heart. The highway is full of curves and switchbacks, which allow it the most wonderful views imaginable.

Along this drive you’ll wander through the Custer, Gallatin and Shoshone National Forests.

The elevation rises from 5,000 to 8,000 feet. There are 20 mountain peaks that reach over 12,000 feet.

Beautiful lakes, green meadows and snowcapped mountains galore; I was in heaven. My advice?

Visit Yellowstone, see the Grand Tetons, but add the Beartooth Highway to your travel plans.

Many people are dealing with anxiety or depression, and have been for many years. It can be extremely helpful to explore what is underneath these powerful emotions in order to move forward.

People suffering from depression are often dealing with issues from the past, while people overwhelmed with anxiety are worried about the future. Anxiety is defined as having a feeling of worry, nervousness, or unease, typically about an imminent event or something with an uncertain outcome. Depression typically involves feelings of hopelessness or inadequacy.

Everyone at some point has felt anxious or depressed. Is it something you feel from timeto-time, or fairly often? If it’s often, it’s important to take time to look at what it might mean for you. There may be something to deal with and work through so that you can find more freedom, peace and joy. It doesn’t have to be something you have forever.

Below are five steps to begin making changes.

Don’t run the other way. Many people ignore their feelings because it wasn’t okay to express emotions as children. Now, they are afraid to feel their feelings in fear they will become stuck in them. If we don’t feel our feelings, we can’t move past them. We will stay stuck.

Face your fears. Often, there is something underneath fear that began earlier in our lives.

Do you feel anxious or depressed?

Commentary by Kristen Boice

y Individuall d te e ck Po Coil on Coil Luxury

Write down your fears. Are you willing to face them in order to get to the other side? When we face our fears, we are able to see things differently.

Examine the negative statements. Identify and understand the negative statements you have made about yourself. Is it about being bad, not good enough, inadequate, ugly, unworthy, the list goes on? These statements need to be explored in order to create change. Our thoughts control our feelings, and then how we act. It’s important to work on understanding why we feel a certain way. Then we can make changes.

Develop healthy coping strategies. How do you deal with your feelings now? While growing up, it might have been the easiest way to deal with the feelings in order to survive.

However, how does it work in your life today?

Do you ‘stuff’ or numb your feelings by using the Internet, shopping, drinking, smoking, etc.?

Let them out by writing down your feelings, and dig deeper.

Don’t give up. You are worth it! You deserve to be happy and to feel good about yourself! If we don’t love ourselves, it’s hard to fully love others.

Ways to Age-proof Your Hair Revive Color Monochromatic color can age you. The fix: Ask your colorist to weave in three or more shadesespecially skin-brightening caramel or honey—around your face.

Cover Gray Hair Seeing grays? Although most people think graying hair is a result of genetics, research has shown that environmental damage can mature hair pigment cells quickly, stopping the supply of color.

Whatever the culprit, cover up gray fast with a temporary tint that lays pigment on top of the hair, then washes out. (It’s gentler than permanent dyes, if you do not want to commit to color.) See your Salon 01 stylist for a recommendation for a temporary tint.

Keep Color Vibrant To keep your color vibrant, every week use a leave-in treatment that contains antioxidants and UV filters. UV light weakens the outer layer of hair, which causes natural color to fade and dye molecules to escape faster. Some of our favorites include Aquage’s Biomega Moisture Mist and Biominoil mineral treatment, both found at Salon 01!

Rebuild Body Thick, luxurious hair is associated with youth but in a Procter & Gamble poll, 78 percent of women said their hair was anything but thick. One reason: As we age, hair's growth cycle shortens, so strands don't reach their full potential. To make them look thicker, opt for a volumizing mousse or root lifter with amino acids, which bond to the hair shaft and can fill in porous spots.

Restore Shine Even women in their 20s can have dull, drab hair. Blame the torture that so many of us inflict on our hair every day. (Daily styling with scorching tools—ouch!) The problem is that heat and heavy brushing can roughen up cuticles, robbing hair of shine. To make cuticles lie flat so they reflect more light, apply a few drops of serum and work it evenly through dry hair. Choose one with botanical oils (such as argan oil), which create instant sleekness. Our choices are Salon 01’s Moroccan Miracle, or Aquage’s Silkening Oil. Repair Dry Hair To repair very dry hair, use a protein-based mask twice a week—it will help smooth the cuticle and bring back hair's gleam.

To learn more about products that are made for your hair type, visit us at Salon 01 for a personal consultation and product education session.

Acne free! The nutritious way to clear skin Foods with omega-3 fatty acids. This includes salmon, flax seeds, and walnuts. Foods with omega-3 fatty acids have been known to protect skin from harmful oxidizing substances. Omega-3s are also known to help reduce inflammation, so any blemishes you do have won’t be quite so red. Adding flaxseed to your cereal is another simple way to boost your omega-3s.

Foods rich in selenium. Brazil nuts, almonds, onion, garlic, and whole grains are all sources of selenium, which is also a powerful antioxidant. These foods help preserve your skin’s elasticity and reduce inflammation.

Just eating a handful of almonds a day is an easy way to up your selenium intake.

Foods rich in vitamin C. Melons, oranges, tomatoes, and strawberries all boost your immune system and can strengthen your cell walls. These foods may help protect your skin from acne scarring and activate healing powers to amend damaged or irritated skin.

Foods rich in vitamin E. This category includes nuts, soybeans, almonds, leafy greens and eggs. Vitamin E rich foods also help protect your skin from scarring. An easy way to get your daily dose is by drizzling olive oil on a salad or using it to cook.

Foods in high water content. This means…drink water, water and more water!

Keeping your body hydrated is one of the best things you can do for yourself.

Salmonella prompts recalls Commentary by John Mikesell

Because of the many pet foods recalls of late, I thought it would be a good idea to post some tips from the Centers for Disease Control (Atlanta).

1. Purchase products with no visible damage to packaging.

2. If possible, store dry pet food in its original bag inside a clean, dedicated plastic container with a lid. Keep the top of the bag folded or closed.

3. Store dry pet food and pet treats in a cool, dry place under 80 percent.

4. Promptly refrigerate or discard unused, leftover wet pet food and containers. The fridge should be set at 40 percent.

5. Do not handle or store pet food in areas where human food is prepared. Feed pets in areas other than the kitchen.

6. Use a clean, dedicated scoop, spoon or

cup to scoop pet food. Do not use the pet bowl. Wash pet food bowls, dishes and scooping utensils with soap and hot water regularly. Avoid washing items in the kitchen sink or bathtubs to prevent cross contamination.

7. Do not allow children younger than five to touch or eat pet food, treats or supplements.

8. Wash your hands for 20 seconds with soap and water right after handling pet food and treats or, after contact with animals or their environments – and especially before preparing, serving or eating food or drinks or preparing baby bottles.

9. Clean up after your pet. Scoop the litter box and clean up dog waste in the yard Dailey.

Limestone provides class to buildings, lawns Landscaping by Randy Sorrell The Palladium, White House, Pentagon, Empire State Building and the Biltmore mansion share a distinct attribute. They are constructed of limestone harvested from Indiana, as are 35 of the nations state capital buildings. Understandably, Bedford, Ind. was considered the limestone capital of the world for years.

It’s a favorite material of architects, “greenies” and construction teams worldwide driven by its’ soft nature, ease of cutting, copious supply chain and strong durability. I suspect those attributes were appreciated in 2,600 B.C. as thousands of slaves struggled to assemble the Great Pyramid.

It remained paper white and smooth as glass until Arabs began “repurposing” the limestone exterior for mosques and other buildings.

PATIO. WALLS. SLABS. BRIDGE. The organic history lends credibility to its’ inspired modern use. We love sourcing limestone in patios, retaining walls and as large slab steps in the landscape. Its’ immediate footprint is green friendly and, as the featured photos reflect, can be employed to formalize or naturalize.

Erasable ink – Ballpoint pen got loose in your white shirt pocket? Put a piece of scrap fabric beneath the stained spot to blot any ink that may come through. Then spray the stain evenly with aerosol hair spray from four to six inches away.

Blot the surface of the stained article after spraying. You may have to repeat the process a couple of times. Finally, give the garment a regular laundering. almanac.com www.currentinwestfield.com

The formal cut limestone wall and stately columns, repeated elsewhere in the estate, lends a textural counterpoint against the surrounding landscape, aged red clay paver auto court and brick / mortar historic home. Limestone is respectfully featured around this property in a mini quarry outcropping. Native seating blocks rescued from the Indianapolis Museum of Art envelop a rustic, decomposed granite fire-pit patio tucked in a hidden corner of the backyard.

Limestone slabs behave nicely as petite stepping-stones or as a massive bridge over a stream or dry creek bed. Seamlessly combining textures, colors and formal with the informal is thrilling.

It encourages repetition and surprise.

There is something curiously romantic about Indiana limestone whose capacity is limited only by our brilliance. The historic and majestic quality of limestone prompts an instant respect for any outdoor living space.

Master bath value has right combination Commentary by David Decker Just about every home is some combination of personal sanctuary and social gathering point.

And just about every custom home improvement project is some combination of necessary function and enhanced livability.

Value engineering helps to ensure that all those project and lifestyle tumblers fall neatly into place and properly click when making a real-life decision to undertake a master bathroom custom improvement project.

More and more, the master bathroom has become something far beyond a “necessary� room and lavatory meant only to help launch us out into the busy-ness of the day. Master bathrooms have become part spa, oasis, and sanctuary shielding us from the hectic demands of life.

Swirling tubs, steam baths, multi-head showers, walled off toilet compartments, spacious lounge areas with beautiful design and soothing colors make the most modern of master bathrooms a place to stay not just a place to, well, go.

Often a homeowner will sort through the priorities of whether to upgrade the kitchen or the master bathroom. Obviously there can be exceptions but master bath projects tend to be far less costly than kitchen projects of similar scope. If cooking and entertaining are high priorities, the home improvement project budget A S C O C H O K T E R R N A A B C P R O P R O B E N B O A E R R G E M H I C L O D H A L O A B E L

should be concentrated there. If personal space and comfort are the goals, then the investment can lean toward a wonderful master bathroom.

Value engineering a home improvement starts with talking and proceeds through planning, budgeting, purchasing, and execution. A project that begins properly with clear, goal-defining communication has a good chance at success.

This is one of the critical reasons to engage a home improvement professional. His or her experience, knowledge and skill combine to unlock the mystery of knowing how and to what extent a complex set of project goals can be achieved.

Whether the goal is for sanctuary, comfort, or even medical necessity, a successful master bathroom improvement will be a combination of great ideas, great communication, and great value.
