Westfield police and fire units search for the source of a gas leak at Walmart, 2001 E. 151st St., on Aug. 5. (Submitted photo)

Gas leak causes evacuation

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

Approximately 100 people were evacuated from three Westfield Stores after a gas leak was discovered on Aug. 5 at safety 2001 E. 151st St. WFD Spokesman John Barrett said around 9 p.m. employees at the Rack Room Shoes store smelled an odor of gas in the building, called 911 and evacuated the building.

The two neighboring stores, Walmart and Five Below, also were evacuated as a precaution.

“No one was affected by the fumes,” he said, adding that firefighters used an atmospheric gas thermometer to detect the amount of gas released. “Mercaptan levels were well below the explosive range.”

Barrett said members of Station 82, located nearby at 1920 E. 151st St., were on the scene in less than a minute and found a strong smell of gas outside of the building.

“Once behind the Walmart, firefighters found a ruptured pipe and began to fix the leak,” Barrett said. “Within 20 minutes, firefighters had the leak temporarily repaired.

When Vectren Gas crews arrived they went to work and eventually deemed the buildings safe for business.”

Walmart reopened around 10 p.m., within an hour of the initial call.

“It was so close to closing time that when we were able to secure the leak it was time for them to close,” Barrett said of Rack Room Shoes and Five Below.

The cause for the gas leak is not known.

Barrett said the Aug. 5 incident was abnormal and “not a reoccurring thing” for the shopping area.

“There was a small gas leak in Papa Johns a couple years ago. It was a value switch in the store. The gas company came in and fixed it for them,” he said.

Jealous Muses Melpomene (Anna Christianson) and Calliope (Ivy Bott) plot against their sister in the musical comedy ‘XANADU!’ (Photo by Zach Rosing)

Westfield teens appear in musical news@currentinwestfield.com

Lace up your roller skates and dig out your disco ball as Footlite Musicals presents the Indianapolis premier of the hit theater Broadway musical comedy, “XANADU!” “XANADU,” directed by Ed Trout, is Footlite Musical’s Young Artists Production, featuring talented performers from ages 13 to 18. Westfield teens Anna Christianson and Rowan Whitcomb will appear in the roles of Melpomene and Erato.

“XANADU” follows the journey of Kira, a magical and beautiful Greek muse. She has descended from the heavens of Mt. Olympus to Venice Beach, in a quest to inspire Sonny to achieve the greatest artistic creation of all time – the first

roller disco. When Kira falls into forbidden love with the mortal Sonny, her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation and chaos abounds.

This roller-skating musical is based on the classic cult movie of the same title, which starred Olivia Newton-John and Gene Kelly. It features a book by Douglas Carter Beanne (Sister Act) and a score full of chart-topping tunes by Jeff Lynne and John Farrar (“Magic,” “Suddenly” and “Evil Woman”).

“XANADU” will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 15, 8 p.m. Aug. 16 and 17 and 2:30 p.m. Aug. 18 at the Hedbeck Theatre, 1847 N. Alabama St., Indianapolis. Cost is $10 for Thursday and $15 from Friday through Sunday.

The community had the opportunity to see the men and women behind the badges as the Westfield Police Dept. public safety hosted its fourth annual “Jake Laird” Community Appreciation Day on Aug. 6 at Quaker Park, 17501 Dartown Rd. “Our top priority is to serve our community by providing a safe environment for people to work, live and play. We cannot accomplish this without developing a relationship with those we serve” Police Chief Joel Rush said. “We develop and foster those relationships through outreach programs such as the Jake Laird Community Day.” The WPD provided free hotdogs and popcorn.

Kids were treated to various activities including bounce houses, a rock climbing wall and a K9 demonstration. Officers were on hand to showcase the department’s vehicles, equipment and programs.

“Our officers love this event,” Rush said. “They enjoy meeting the people they serve and taking the time to get to know them. The kids get a big kick out of the event. What kid didn’t want to be a police officer growing up?”

Hamilton County residents Mike and Debbie Laird presented WPD with a donation to fund the annual Community Day celebration. The Lairds are the parents of fallen Indianapolis Police Officer

After Jake’s death, the Lairds established the Jake Laird Memorial Fund which provides funds for local law enforcement agencies in need of new equipment, innovating new programs, and assists with officer hardships. The Laird Family is known as friends to numerous police agencies throughout Indiana sponsoring programs that strengthen community relations.

All in the family

James Caldwell started his business to secure his children’s future

By Anna Skinner • news@currentinwestfield.com For 11 years, James Caldwell has successfully created and became the president of Five Star Restoration, a water and cover story fire restoration business.

However, Caldwell’s motives were not the normal reasons behind starting a business.

In 2002, when his 1-year-old daughter, Chloe, had yet to start walking, Caldwell knew something was wrong. After a trip to the doctor, the Caldwells were given the news that their daughter, as well as their 2-year-old son, James, and their unborn child, Dakota, all had an incurable disease known as spinal muscular atrophy – a disease that takes over all the muscles and would eventually cause all three of his children to be in a wheelchairs.

Thinking years into the future, Caldwell did something extremely noble and selfless, he created a business with the hopes that his kids could run it in the future.

“I started the company so that my kids can take it over and so that it won’t be hard for them to find a job,” Caldwell said. “I want to make it as easy as I can for them.”

Because his past employment consisted of the water department at the City of Carmel and another carpet restoration job, ChemDry in Indianapolis, Caldwell did what he knew best and started Five Star Restoration.

Five Star Restoration also offers carpet cleaning, flood checks, home repairs, maid services and more. The company is family and veteran operated. Caldwell himself served five years in the National Guard.

To help not just his kids, each year part of the company’s profit is donated to the Spinal Muscular Atrophy Foundation to help find a cure.

Caldwell is hoping for a big check to give to them this year.

“I think James has all the right motives and ideas,” company Vice President Alex Miller, who has worked with Five Star for six months and has known Caldwell since middle school, said.

“He’s doing it for noble reasons, and I wanted to get on board.”

When Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast, the company sent half of its staff to New York, where it paid for the costs of the flight, the ho-

tels, as well as the expenses of drying out the flooded houses for free. Over all, they dried out approximately 10 houses. “[Hurricane Sandy] really makes you look different at your life and what you have and cherish it,” Caldwell said, adding he cherishes spending time with his three kids.

Caldwell started the company not only for his kids in the future, but also for their benefit now.

He wanted a flexible work schedule so that he would be able to spend time with them more often.

“We go fishing and play video games a lot,” Caldwell said. “We’ll stay up all night and watch

cartoons in the morning, but I don’t get to spend as much time with them as I want.”

However, he said he hopes once business is steadier,he’ll be able to change that. Although it has been in business for more than a decade, Five Star Restoration only has been open at 17715 Commerce Dr., Suite 100, in Westfield for a few months. Previously it was housed in Castleton, but Caldwell says he already has noticed an increase in business.

“Westfield has made the turnaround for our company,” he said. “We are a dedicated business that strives to have technicians that have pride in what they do. We are a household name and strive for excellence and the best customer service. We worked hard to get where we’re at and we want to stay where we’re at. We’re here to stay.”

Caldwell’s kids are growing up. James, the eldest at 14, already has started helping his dad in the shop by working three days a week around the office with the secretaries as well as sweeping up in the shop when he can. He wants to major in business and can’t wait to start working at Five Star Restoration full time.

Chloe, 12, has already told her dad that she wants to be the lady answering the phones, and the youngest, 11-year-old Dakota, isn’t sure what he wants to do yet, but Caldwell said he hopes it’s something within the business. Caldwell wants his kids to follow their goals and dreams, wherever they may lead.

FR O M T H E BACKSHOP Coming soon: New dining guide We’re proud to announce the coming debut of our dining guide, Tables, which will detail options in Hamilton and Boone counties and beyond. The first issue, of which we hope will become a quarterly offering, will arrive in homes on Oct. 22. Actually, this wasn’t our idea. Karen Kennedy, who covers the arts and government for us, and who spent more than 20 years owning, managing and promoting restaurants, approached us about it. Brilliant!

We said, “Yes” to the idea in a heartbeat.

Karen will head the project. Tables will be a glossy-text, bound, magazine-style publication that will feature ads from area restaurants, along with directory listings which will give readers guidance about the category, location, price and other amenities (outdoor café, brunch service and family friendly, among others) that each restaurant offers. It also will include features on local chefs and anecdotal stories about the restaurant business from an insider’s perspective. We’re excited about the potential of Tables. The markets we serve are comprised of residents with disposable income and with a desire to dine out.

That we go to every home by mail in all the markets we serve provides a powerful “in” for advertising partners. As with our other publications, we relied on independent research before moving ahead. Research has served us quite well for almost seven years, and we’re not going to launch an initiative without it. We feel strongly that if it’s important to the readers, we’ll make sure they get what they want, and the research helps us to do just that.

Restaurants interested in advertising in Tables are urged to e-mail tables@youarecurrent.com or call 489-4444.

Afraid to fail It is our position that failure needs to be an organic experience that is part of learning. In one of many public examples of fear of failure as of late, it seems the former state superintendent of education got caught in the vortex intended to be the administration’s answer to monitoring failing schools with an A-F grading system. Instead of escaping the vortex by admitting that even the best schools can fail according to the current grading system or that the grading system may in fact need to be changed, the storm worsened.

Fear of failure in politics is exhibited by the stalemates, bailouts, refusing to acknowledge that business plans don’t always work and refusal to acknowledge that a growing sense of entitlement is rampant among its people.

The highest paid player in major league baseball, Alex Rodriguez, was recently suspended for his alleged involvement in a doping scandal along with a dozen other baseball players. A-Rod, is juicing really worth maligning your career when you are fortunate enough to live every little leaguer’s dream? Lift a few more weights or stay after practice. Selfrespect is the byproduct of admitting failure and has a valued and vital place in a civilized free society.

Stop, play, be of service Commentary by Terry Anker In drawing a concept from the Proverbs, 17th century British playwright William Congreve proclaimed “Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned,” spoken by Zara in Act III, Scene VIII of “The Mourning Bride” (1697). The quote is often mistakenly attributed to an earlier bard and another William.

Since Congreve borrowed it from the Bible only to have history believe it to have been penned by another author reminds us that the message is always more important than the speaker.

While I’ve routinely dismissed the line as misogynistic preferring to believe that Hell is likely filled with banshees of both genders plotting vengeance on thoughtless and lost love, one is reminded that art has often miscast women as shrew rather than progenitor. Not so with the Women’s’ fund of Central Indiana which has placed pianos, both indoors and out, at locations around our fair communities (www.womensfund. org/go-ahead-play). These instruments are meant

to be played by all comers – the gifted and the not-so-much-so. Across downtown Indianapolis and at two locations in the Arts & Design District in Carmel, folks can and do play live music with reckless abandon. Local artists made the donated and refurbished pianos ready for primetime (and for sale to raise money to go back into the community). The idea designed to raise awareness and create public art is created and brought to life by sixth- to twelfth-grade students! Sure, Jennifer Pope Baker, the Women’s Fund Executive Director, and her top flight team provided loads of support, but the kids are to be credited.

Before the pianos are removed next week, stop and play. Stop and interact. Congreve might have been better remembered if he’d quoted, “Heaven hath no joy, like a woman of service.”

The calm is just a ruse

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Have you ever had a day where everything seems to be moving along too perfectly? Where you think to yourself, Somehumor thing’s up. Life shouldn’t be this good? I had one of those recently, and sure enough, it all came crashing down.

The morning had been simply dreamy. While children and husband slept, I had enough quiet time to make coffee, check email, stalk my friends and acquaintances on Facebook, and even hammer out a wedding toast for my baby sister that I must say, is simply outstanding.

Once kids arose, they left me alone in favor of Doo, who eventually caved to their incessant whining for Dunkin’ Donuts. Everyone was happy, even Mother Nature, who’d taken it upon herself to deliver a package of spectacular weather, despite it being the heart of summer. Later, I was able to wrap up the overdue weeding, take a stroll with Doo and the dog, and actually finish a sci-fi novel down by our neighborhood pool.

Pure magic.

And then, of course, the day went all to hell.

Quite literally, as I was sitting at my computer wondering how I would spend the rest of the glorious afternoon, my rare slice of serenity pie was whisked away in grand fashion by the piercing screams of our youngest daughter. I found her leaning over the upstairs banister and

Custody Child Support Prenuptial Agreements Adoptions Education Law

clutching her left hand, her hysteria increasing by the nanosecond. Blood dripped onto the beige carpet at my feet. Great.

Trying to entertain herself in her room, she’d been attempting to make jewelry from a soda can, when her thumb slipped across the serrated edge of one of the pieces she had ironically cut with safety scissors. Now her gash was spewing blood all down the hallway and completely freaking her out. Eventually we calmed her down enough to determine she probably didn’t need stitches, just healthy doses of Ibuprofen, ice, and cuddles. But rest assured, she milked her condition for every ounce of sympathy I possess, including my reserve stock, and left me emotionally exhausted by dinner.

To add insult to the injury, we then received a text from our very gracious neighbor, whom our stupid cat had taken a bite of the day before, saying she’d had to go to the hospital after all, but was on the mend thanks to intravenous antibiotics and a tetanus shot. No worries, she’d keep us posted on her recovery. Awesome.

So I’ve come to suspect any seemingly perfect day for the guise it truly is – the calm before a possible ER run and/or a lawsuit. Peace out.

Avoid beer, black and full moons Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

It was one of those Internet headlines that you think might be a joke: Mosquitoes prefer beer drinkers My initial reaction was to humor brush it off, just like I do the little pests at picnics and the State Fair. The article had already gone viral. My guess is that good old boys in places like Pine Bluff, Ark., got the bad news while standing around their favorite watering hole where, unfortunately, there is a lot of standing water.

The piece is filled with data that establishes a profile for those people most likely to be bitten.

Much of this research was sponsored by the American Mosquito Control Association, whose motto includes: “We are dedicated to education… that results in the total suppression of mosquitoes.” Generally, I’m against any kind of suppression, but even a liberal like me can suck it up and admit this is all-out war. And it won’t be bloodless.

The investigations were performed on hundreds of idealistic young volunteers. What was the incentive for their participation? Lots of free booze and an itch to do something for the betterment of mankind.

The research says that when a mosquito dines on a person who has enjoyed a few brews, the insect gets a little tipsy herself (male mosquitoes don’t bite). Scientists have an instrument

called an inebriometer that can measure how much alcohol the bug has ingested. No doubt, Indiana soon will be training our state troopers (those with tiny hands) to administer this test.

What else have scientists learned? Professor Robert Van Pire (not his real name) at a nearby Midwest university sat in a mosquito-filled lab in his underwear to determine which parts of his body were most likely to be targeted. His feet were first, even edging out a petri dish with limburger cheese. Entomologists around the world admired the professor’s dedication to the problem of insect bites, but ol’ Dr. Bob actually teaches American Literature and this was the third time he was caught on campus in his boxers claiming it was research.

What other factors make you susceptible to a mosquito bite? Black clothing, for example, increases the chance of being a victim about 35 percent. And when the moon is full, you are 25 percent more likely to be bitten. This is another reason not to flash people from your car window, especially at dusk when mosquitoes are looking for some action and can’t tell one moon from another.

Kevin Burke

Fringe Festival features local talent

By Jay Harvey • news@currentinwestfield.com For theater fans, including people living north of 96th Street, one of the year’s biggest attractions will make an 11-day stand in and around the Indianapolis Cultural District theatre of Massachusetts Avenue – the Indianapolis Theatre Fringe Festival (Aug. 15-25).

Current Publishing talked with Kevin Burke and two other performers making their IndyFringe debuts, all from Hamilton and Boone counties.

Of the three, Burke enjoys the highest profile in the entertainment world — certainly indisputable if you agree with him that the world’s top entertainment cities are Las Vegas and New York. What’s a hit in Vegas sometimes stays in Vegas, though: “I thought there should be a sign at the city limits saying, ‘No one past this point knows who Kevin Burke is.’”

Recounting what happened to him there makes up “Sin City Stories,” which opens Aug. 17 at ComedySportz.

The vehicle that raced him to fame was “Defending the Caveman,” a one-man show by Rob Decker. Burke won the audition to tour in the Broadway show in 2003; by 2007 the producers wanted to plant the show in Las Vegas and chose Burke to present it.

Eventually, he found himself in the longest-

running Broadway show in Sin City history – 3,000 performances in all.

The show connects with people through witty comparisons of typical male and female behavior. Sample: “When a woman says ‘I’ll call you,’ she means when she gets home. When a man says it, it means before he dies.”

Back in November, Burke told his bosses that he wanted to come home this May to spend more time with his children, now 14 and 10. He’ll still do road shows of “Defending the Caveman,” but only for several days at a time.

Michelle Freed, who lives in Fishers with her husband and their two children, has a background in advertising, corporate communications and journalism, with a subspecialty of humor writing. Putting that humor and herself on a stage is something new to her, however. “Come Dance With Me” is a monologue recalling the tension of being “born to boogie” but growing up in a small Oklahoma town that frowned on dancing.

“My parents were dance-friendly, and we were kind of the liberals of the town,” Freed said. “We ended up having dances in the Methodist church basement.”

“Come Dance With Me” takes that hometown restriction on dancing and traces Freed’s subsequent obsession with the worlds of “Soul Train” and “American Bandstand” across the decades.

“It’s definitely a stretch for me,” she said about her show, which opens at ComedySportz

on Aug. 16. She states her goal for the show humbly: “I want not to feel completely stupid.

I seem to stumble onto things a lot.” Selfdeprecation is part of her style, she added: “I would rather throw myself under the bus than someone else.”

Larry Adams, a family physician who lives in Zionsville, caught the theater bug in the last year of his residency 24 years ago. Soon he got heavily involved with acting and has accumulated cast credits in a variety of local productions, from Lebanon and Brownsburg to Indianapolis’ Theatre on the Square.

Adams wrote “The Dealer Smiles” out of an interest in questions of religious faith and philosophy, but he didn’t want to handle those themes too somberly.

“It’s mostly from a Christian perspective,” he says about his two-character play, “but it doesn’t toe any kind of traditional Christian line.”

Breaking down walls between different faith traditions is Adams’ goal with the two-character comedy.

When Adams got the play in finished form two years ago, he sent it to Jaime Johnson, a former patient and fellow theater enthusiast.

Johnson’s acting skill inspired Adams’ work on the final version of “The Dealer Smiles,” which the two men will perform at Theatre on the Square (Stage 2) starting Aug. 16.

When to seek immediate care

Commentary by LeeAnne Nazer, MD

When illness or injury strikes, it’s often hard to know whether to seek immediate care or to call your primary care docadvice tor. The decision becomes even more complicated if it happens after hours or on a weekend. To help make the most informed choice during these circumstances, it’s important to know basic guidelines for when and where to seek medical care.

A true medical emergency generally is a condition that threatens a person’s life, limbs or sense organs. Most medical professionals agree that the following circumstances should always be treated as medical emergencies: chest pain, inability to breathe, severe and uncontrolled bleeding, stroke symptoms, and head, neck and eye injuries.

In most cases, your primary-care doctor is the best resource for determining how to handle the condition. Find out whether your doctor has an after-hours service (most do). Also, ask your doctor whether he or she recommends a local walk-in clinic or urgent-care center. Walk-in centers are often good options for minor illnesses and injuries that occur at night or on weekends when your doctor may be unavailable. They are less expensive than emergency room visits, and if your situation isn’t a medical emergency, you’ll

likely spend less time in the waiting room at a walk-in center.

Considering care for sudden injuries, it’s recommended to call your healthcare provider or seek immediate medical attention for the following: • A wound that continues bleeding after several minutes of applying pressure • Cuts that are particularly long or deep or that have ragged edges • Redness, swelling, bruising or drainage that increases • Numbness at the site of an injury • Injured body part that is bent or misshapen • Significant injuries to the head and face • Injuries that pop or make a sound when occurring • Increasing pain or difficulty breathing • A wound that looks infected (red, swollen or draining pus) It’s always best to err on the side of caution when illnesses or injuries occur. If you feel that you or someone else needs immediate medical attention and a primary care doctor is not available, emergency care may be the best choice.

Memorial golf fundraiser

news@currentinwestfield.com

There’s still time to register for the annual Christ is my Big C Golf Tournament played in memory of Stephephilanthropy nie Jocham on Aug. 26 at the Sagamore Golf Club. The mission of Christ is my Big C is to lessen the financial burdens of cancer fighters and their families to allow them to focus on the more important things in their lives – faith, family and wellness. The tournament will include a four man scramble. Registration opens at 9:30 a.m. and shotgun starts at 11 a.m. Entry is due by Aug. 16.

Registration is $600 per team. A superticket also is available for $40 per person and includes one Mulligan, Frog Hole-hit from forward tees on selected hole, four raffle tickets, free golf swing launch monitor session, putting contest, $10 Golfsmith gift card, and entry into scratcher game to win $300 TaylorMade/Adidas gift card. The registration fee includes a cart, range balls, personal

gift, all beverages, lunch, dinner, golf swag and Adidas golf shirt.

Prizes will be awarded for the top 3 teams, longest drive, closest to the pin, putting contest, hole in one contest with a chance to win a new car, $10,000, $5,000, Adidas shopping spree, or 40-inch flat panel TV. Shortly after being diagnosed with a rare form of cancer in January 2010, it became apparent to Jocham how blessed she was compared to others in similar situations. Thanks to the fact that she was financially solvent and was able to work remotely, she was able to keep her salary as well as her benefits. However, this is not usually the case with most cancer patients. Many lose their jobs and insurance benefits while they are struggling with treatments. While there are many foundations that raise money for research, there aren’t many that help the people who are undergoing cancer treatments. It was Jocham’s wish to help those dealing with cancer to not have to worry about where they will go for financial help.

Medicare meets mandates

Commentary by Jamie Ianigro

Question from Richard H. from Fishers: My wife and I are both retired, drawing social security and on Medicare. How Insurance will the new mandates affect us?

Response from Jamie Ianigro: Beginning in 2014, every adult must have health insurance that meets minimum standards of coverage or pay a penalty when filing their tax returns. The tax penalty starts at $95 or 1 percent of your yearly income, whichever is greater.

The penalty increases during the next two years as the law currently stands.

The nice thing for the people on Medicare is how little all of this will actually affect them.

Being enrolled in Medicare fulfills your individual mandate and keeps you out of the tax penalty box each year. Reform also has added free preventive services and annual wellness visits under Medicare. These benefits were rolled out in January 2011.

Annual wellness visits are designed to allow you to meet with your physician annually to develop a personalized plan for improving and/or maintaining your health. This visit includes routine measurements, reviewing and updating your family medical history, a personal risk assessment, a review of your current abilities and getting refer-

rals to additional services you may need.

Preventative services are the other piece that has been added to your Medicare plan as a no cost-sharing benefit. These include mammograms every 12 months, cardiovascular disease screenings, colonoscopies, cervical cancer screenings, cholesterol testing, diabetes screenings, flu shots, bone mass measurements and many other benefits.

Additional benefits do have a cost, but those costs are passed on to people still paying Medicare taxes. The Medicare tax rate was increased at the end of 2012. A single individual pays Medicare taxes on all income up to $125,000. Those that are married and filing jointly have a threshold of $250,000.

The new mandates also don’t take any shots at the social security trust fund. It is unlikely that social security will remain unchanged forever, but the trust fund is expected to be solvent until 2033 under the current rules and regulations. The fund is expected to begin bringing in less money than it pays out starting in the early 2020s.

Do you deny problems?

Commentary by Kristen Boice

Do you deny or minimize problems? Do you avoid conflict? Are you afraid to confront issues? Are you not sure how to communicate advice about difficult subjects? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you are not alone. Many people never learned communication skills to work through challenges because it wasn’t modeled or taught to us.

To work through challenges, it’s important to acknowledge, name and claim them and then begin to change them. It’s essential to understand we cannot change another person. We can only communicate how we feel, what we need and set boundaries.

By not dealing with the problem and acting like it isn’t there, we are continuing the pattern for generations to come. It’s not too late to break an unhealthy cycle. It’s important to attempt this with safe people.

1. Acknowledge, name and claim. Take time to write out your feelings to get clarity before attempting to communicate or resolve the conflict.

Explore what might be the root of the issue on your own to gain a deeper understanding. This will give you confidence to confront issues.

2. Set boundaries. It’s important that you have boundaries for yourself. Don’t take on re-

sponsibility for things that are not yours to own.

Sometimes we tend to take on too much or too little responsibility. Write out how you think you contributed to the issue so you can set appropriate boundaries.

3. Generate possible solutions or options.

Try to brainstorm possible solutions by making a list of pro’s and con’s of each idea. Be open to hearing and listening in order to understand both sides.

4. Explore your intentions. It’s important to look at your expectations and intentions. Are you wanting the other person to change? Is the goal to speak your truth with love and grace so you feel better and try to resolve the issue?

Confronting issues means to attempt to bridge over and understand where the other person is coming from.

5. Use “I” statements instead of “you” statements. Start by saying, “I feel____ because____. I need_______.” If we start off with a “You should, you never, you always…” it will NOT go well. It will only create defensiveness.

Dealing with misplaced modifiers Commentary by Jordan Fischer

Question: “One of my pet peeves is placing the word ‘only’ next to a word it does not modify and away grammar guy from the word it intends to modify.

I waited to send this to you until I found a misplaced ‘only’ in your column. Your recent ‘Real vs. really...’ column concluded by saying, ‘Adjectives only modify nouns.’ (If the only thing adjectives do is ‘modify,’ then they must not explain nouns, or quantify nouns, or strengthen nouns, etc.) I believe the sentence should be “Adjectives modify only nouns.”

Many years ago my grammar teacher impressed me with her emphasis on placement of “only” in a sentence. I must have been the only person who had that teacher, or the only one who paid attention in her class, since it seems more often than not writers and speakers violate her rule. To dramatize how the placement of ‘only’ can change the meaning of a statement, my teacher would post the following sentence on the board. Then she would ask which blank you would fill with ‘only:’ “________SHE _______SAID______SHE_______ LOVED _______ME________.”

I love your column and look forward to it every week. You make complicated grammar rules easy to understand. Your column helps all of us clean up our grammar.” (Rollin Dick, Carmel) Answer: You caught me! I confess: Sometimes I get to writing too quickly and my simple modifiers (only, barely, just, etc.) start hopping all over

the place. It’s a bad habit.

You and your teacher are correct. Adjectives like “only” should be placed as closely as possible to the words they are modifying, so as to limit any possible confusion. Otherwise, you can wind up with a “misplaced modifier.” This might not be grammatically wrong in all circumstances, but our goal should always be to write as clearly as possible. Let’s look at some variations of your teacher’s sentence: • “Only she said she loved me.” Sad, but hey, at least somebody does, right?

• “She only said she loved me.” What more should she say?

• “She said only she loved me.” Well that’s … slightly stalkerish.

• “She said she only loved me.” I guess this is one of those “I love you but I don’t like you right now” situations.

• “She said she loved only me.” Now there’s a sweet sentiment. You should take her to the drive-in!

It’s a short and sweet lesson this week, but an important one: Place modifiers as close to the thing they modify as possible. As you can see above, even a single word moved around in a sentence can create a very different meaning – and I won’t always be around to provide hilarious commentary if it does.

By extrapolating its survey results to data from 2009 to 2010 APPA National Pet Owners Survey by the American Pet Products Association (Greenwich, Conn.), Thunder shirt estimates that nearly 23 million dogs currently suffer or have suffered some sort of anxiety issues have impacted 18.6 million U.S. households.

Evidence suggests that dog owners spend on the average, more than $1 billion per year

Pet stress costs owners billions each year

Plenty of pets have anxiety issues, and many pet parents just don’t know how to handle them.

The fact that pets suffer canine anxiety issues isn’t news, but the fact that pet owners spend more than $1 billion a year addressing fear and anxiety issues in their dogs should perk up your ears.

Forty-one percent of dog owners participating in a survey by GMI Inc. in Washington said they had at least one dog with a current or former anxiety issue. The online survey involved 1,201 households that owned a total of 1,960 dogs.

Twenty-nine percent of dogs in the survey population suffered from some form of anxiety or fear. The most common triggers were noises such as thunderstorms and fireworks (17 percent) and separation anxiety (13 percent).

Less than half of survey respondents (46 percent) said they take action to address anxiety issues in their dogs. Of those, 71 percent don’t feel it is necessary, 29 percent don’t think there is a viable solution and 13 percent think a solution would be too expensive.

Respondents who address their dog’s anxiety rely on medications, training and avoiding stressful circumstances.

“We’ve worked with tens of thousands of dogs over the past two years, so we knew anxiety problems in dogs are very common, but we were incredibly surprised by the results of this data,” said Phil Blizzard, founder of Thunder shirt (Durham, N.C.) which commissioned the survey.

“As our survey shows, millions of dogs are suffering from, and not being adequately treated for, fear of thunder, separation and travel anxiety and a whole host of other anxiety and fear is-

Have you ever experienced the Chicago Botanical Garden? Inspirational would be a pedestrian description of this daylong venture. Our recent visit was coupled with an indoors ambitious national design/ build/landscape symposium that was easily the most compelling in my 20-year history. The “rock stars” of our industry filled the space with renewed visions of yesterday’s very classic ideas.

By blending bold new living patterns with historic material selection, we realized several strategies from both the gardens and the symposium in this project. Employing crushed-stone texture elements with modern furniture and blazing ornamental urns speak of this home’s very cool vibe. Constantly pushing toward forward design will often prompt creative solutions.

Repurpose The previous front sidewalk was like most in Carmel. Functional, a little boring, and of course, the exposed aggregate was settling. The obvious solution was to remove the old and install something new. But the smart homeowners had something edgy in mind. “How can we repurpose the exposed aggregate?” Hmmm.

Carefully, the team removed the sidewalk in large pre-planned sections and preserved as many as possible. The evolving design artfully integrates soft hues of bluestone accents at the driveway interchange then repeats a bluestone ribbon along the walk at various geometric intervals. The result is a unique walk that generously crafts its way to a front door micro space.

Micro Space A surprise courtyard outside the front door brilliantly speaks to the homeowner’s lifestyle

Dispatches Interior design workshops offered – Beginning Aug. 20 and running through the fall, the Indiana Design Center will host a designer workshop series that is free and open to the public. Design professionals affiliated with the IDC will present interior design topics that range from putting the “wow” factor into a room to creating the perfect holiday table setting. Classes take place on the third Tuesday of each month at 10:30 a.m. Some of the workshop topics include: Designing the Perfect Window Treatment, Designing the Green Home or Office and Holiday Entertaining with Style, along with others. All presentations will take place at the Indiana Design Center at 200 S. Range Line Rd. Refreshments will be provided.

Free parking is available in surface lots or the underground garage.

For more details or to register, call 569-5975 or e-mail concierge@ indianadesigncenter.com.

and offers a crisp space for thought and a glass of wine. A huge slab of blue stone behaves as a step to the front porch and further pulls the space together.

Repurposed exposed aggregate married with soft hued bluestone and a crushed stone house ribbon easily fits the Chicago Botanical Garden in a side courtyard… or your home and always changing lifestyle.

Why pH matters – Nutrition is important for plants to thrive.

You’ll burn through your hard-earned dough trying to fertilize if the ground’s pH – either acidity or alkalinity – is off, because the plants won’t be able to take those nutrients in. – www.bhg.com Bug killer – Vodka is a solid choice for making a drink… or an insect killer. Put some vodka in a spray bottle and go at it. It’s the alcohol that does the trick.

Bathrooms that will grow with your children

Commentary by David Decker

The best home designs are ones that are equipped to grow and change alongside the people who live there. Case and point: a kid’s bathroom. It’s not easy to indoors create a bathroom design that can fit both a kid and adolescent’s needs. And as any parent of a teenager can attest to, there’s no telling how your child’s sense of style will change as he or she grows up.

If you have more than one kid sharing a bathroom, you may want to look into building a Jack and Jill style setup. The best Jack and Jill designs feature a layout that separates the various areas of the bathroom, like the shower and sink areas. That way, each child can have a modest amount of privacy, even though they are sharing the space. Even if you don’t have the space to put in a full Jack and Jill design, you could still get some of the benefits by simply doubling up on the amenities in your bathroom.

You may want to install two sinks, two mirrors, two linen closets and two cabinets if space allows. Doubling up helps cut down on crowding and makes it easier to share the space.

One thing that kids and teenagers both have in common is the large amount of “stuff” they store in the bathroom. Kids may clutter When designing a bathroom for more than one child, the room with bath toys, while teenagers may try doubling sinks, cabinets and storage closets. struggle to find space for their hair products, (Submitted photo)

dryers, flat irons and cosmetics. Both age groups can benefit from ample amounts of built-in storage. Use storage cabinetry along the sides of sinks or near the shower area to store towels, soaps, laundry hampers and other items that may otherwise get thrown on the floor.

Kids have a knack for making watery messes in the bathroom. So you’ll probably want to select bathroom flooring that’s equipped to handle spills. Ceramic or porcelain tiles are always a good bet accompanied by a tile baseboard for easy clean up. Look for a design that features an anti-slip texture if you are concerned about safety.

The best advice for creating a dynamic kid’s bathroom design is to stick to neutral styles when it comes to some of the larger elements.

Try to look for showers, sinks and tile that will look great with any type of décor. Neutral pieces allow you to easily change the entire look of the bathroom by simply adding a coat of paint and swapping out the decorative items.

That way, your children won’t ever outgrow the style. It can simply grow and change whenever they do.
