Hit and run – On Nov. 3, the Westfield Police Dept. investigated a hit and run traffic crash that occurred between midnight and 6:15 a.m. in the 400 block of East Pine Ridge Drive. Sgt. Robert Dine said the victim awoke to discover damage to her parked and unattended minivan. From vehicle parts left at the scene, it is believed that the suspect vehicle is a black 2009 to 2012 Volkswagen Passat CC (similar year, make and model of the vehicle pictured). Dine said the vehicle will be missing the passenger side mirror and there may be additional damage to the right passenger-side and front of the suspect vehicle.

Anyone with information may call 773-1300.

The commute – Nightly single-lane restrictions are expected to continue on northbound U.S. 31 between I-465 and Old Meridian Street (between 116th Street and West Carmel Drive) from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. to install temporary concrete barrier wall.

Painting class – Artist Jan Roland will teach a class in watercolor painting and techniques at 10:15 a.m. and 1 p.m. on Nov. 21. No previous art experience is required. The class fee of $15 includes all materials.

Support group – The next Alzheimer’s Association’s support group meeting in Carmel will be held at 10 a.m. Dec. 11.

At Community North, they did. “She wasn’t getting responsive care where she lived so we flew her up here. The next day she was seeing the doctor,” says Heather. The affiliation between Community Hospital North and East and MD Anderson Cancer Network™ is what impressed Genelle and Heather the most.

“When you find out MD Anderson is number one* in the nation it removes any doubt,” says Genelle. Heather adds, “My sense of confidence came from their sense of urgency.” Cancer is proof that there are no dumb questions. So keep asking. And take comfort in knowing that the answers start here.

Dancing, dining for a cause

By Anna Skinner • anna@currentinwestfield.com

A night of dinner, dancing and fun will lead to field trips, books and curriculum enhancement as the Westfield Education education Foundation hosted its annual Dinner Dance & Silent Auction at the Palomino Ballroom on Nov. 9.

The foundation puts on the yearly event to help raise money for teacher grants and student scholarships. All of the profits from the auction items and ticket sales went directly to classroom enrichment and college scholarships.

The auction items ranged from an Indianapolis Indians suite to holiday décor from Union Street Flowers and Gifts and much, much more.

“Many community businesses willingly donate items or services to help support what we do,” said Jan Skinner, executive director of the Westfield Education Foundation.

Alongside the silent auction were a catered buffet and a speech from foundation president Duane Lutz.

“To me, the Dinner Dance is trying to help fill a void with things that the schools can’t do themselves with tightening budgets,” he said. “It’s nice that the foundation can assist in supplementing the process to make sure the students get the best education they can.”

A New Approach to Health and Wellness Licensed service-rich assisted living with a lot of special extras.

Westfield Education Foundation President Duane Lutz explains the importance of the annual event to “help fill a void with things that the schools can’t do themselves with tightening budgets.”

Last year, the Westfield Education Foundation raised more than $50,000 in student scholarships and $14,000 in teacher grants.

“As a nonprofit we rely on community, corporate and personal donations to be able to provide educational opportunities to our youth, and the Dinner Dance is a good way to accomplish that,” Skinner said.

The foundation puts on other fundraisers throughout the year, such as the Underground Railroad Run every spring. For more information, e-mail foundation@wws.in.us or call 867-8085.

Donated by Judy Overman Klingensmith, this letter to Anna Bales was sent from Asa and Asenath Burnside Bales on Nov. 16, 1817. Asenath (wife of Asa Burnside) was born Asenath Beals/Bales. She was the daughter of Jacob and Mary (Horton) Bales and was Asa Bales’ sister. The letter states: “11th month 16th 1817: Dear sister we take this opportunity of writing to thee to let thee know that we are well at present and hope these will find thee enjoying the same and as we were all talking to thee about coming over at Quarterly meeting to stay a while with us but Asenath says that she would be glad if thee could come a week or two sooner for to help about some of her work and if thee cannot get no company to come with thee I must try and come myself.

news@currentinwestfield.com Contractors for INDOT have begun the final work at 151st Street east of U.S. 31 that will culminate in the openthe commute ing of new northbound “split diamond” interchange ramp segments.

Rieth-Riley Construction milled and paved 151st Street last week. Pavement markings follow paving and traffic on Greyhound Pass and 151st Street is planned to shift this week to a configuration allowing the northbound ramp connector between two roadways to open to traffic.

Contractors plan to shift northbound U.S. 31 traffic to new pavement on the east side of the highway just south of 161st Street as early as this week. Also expected before Thanksgiving, the northbound U.S. 31 exit ramp to 146th Street will split to open access to Greyhound Pass and 151st Street. Access will remain open to northbound U.S. 31 from Greyhound Pass east of U.S. 31.

Construction is expected to continue through the winter on the northbound U.S. 31 entrance ramp from 151st Street.

Turning 70 hasn’t diminished Bruce Carlstedt’s love of playing and refereeing soccer

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com On Aug. 17, Westfield’s Bruce Carlstedt celebrated his 70th birthday. The following day he was out running, passing and kicking with cover story his children and friends – not in the backyard but in a coed adult soccer league game.

“He’s an inspiration for a lot of people around the league,” said Khari Nixon, a player on the Carlstedt family’s adult coed team for the past eight years. “I hear people all the time say, ‘I’m too old to do that.’”

Because of Bruce, that’s not in my dictionary.”

Surprisingly, Carlstedt never played soccer before his oldest son, Eric, now 44, was 10 years old and wanted to compete in the sport. At the time, there were no soccer leagues in Westfield so Eric played three seasons at the Carmel Dads’ Club.

“He put me down as an assistant,” Carlstedt said.

Three years later, Carlstedt helped form Westfield Youth Soccer in 1979-1980. They started with just two teams. Today the club is the fifth largest in Indiana with teams playing in recreation, academy and travel programs.

“If nothing else, these kids are out here two nights a week and a weekend exercising and being active.

They’re not sitting in front of the TV, they are outside and hopefully having a good time,” he said. “It’s a side benefit I never recognized (when forming the league).”

A 'whistleblower' In 1984, Carlstedt became a referee and began coordinating all referees for the organization. When the league first started only a “handful” of whistleblowers were needed; now Carlstedt said 100 referees are used for recreational games.

“We have 1,000 kids each season. I’m surprised by the number of people involved,” he said.

Most of those involved with the club today know Carlstedt for his work as or with referees. He regularly conducts new referee training classes and recertification classes, and most weekends you can find him on the field as a referee.

“Refereeing is as much about teaching the rules, showing players the right way to do it. Kids want to know,” he said.

Carlstedt’s wife, Sharon, joked that her husband would take their youngest son, Tim, to the fields and offer to referee games if “somebody will watch my baby.”

“I love doing it. I can ref a U18 game and then run over and ref a U7 game,” he said.

In his 29 years as a referee, Carlstedt estimates he has overseen more than 100 games per year - 3,000 matches overall.

“I really enjoy it. I truly enjoy it,” he said. “You have the best seat in the house. You see people’s eyes –

see plays develop.”

Throughout his career, Carlstedt said he has only used a few whistles and currently has two in his bag.

“They last a long time or I don’t blow them enough,” he said.

A league of thier own Fifteen years ago, Dan Newman and Carlstedt started an adult coed league. The purpose is to give parents with soccer players a chance to better understand the game and give former players a chance to get back on the field.

“The whole idea is to make it fun,” he said.

The first time the family played on the same field together in an actual game came after Tim turned 21 and could play in the adult league.

“It was really a special thing that first time on the field with all four of them,” he said.

Carlstedt has coached each of his children at one point and even officiated a U7 game of his grandson, Gus. “The whole family has played soccer – rec, travel and high school,” said Heather Gallagher, Carlstedt’s daughter. “It’s great. It gets us together every Sunday and we have a lot of fun.”

Gallagher remembers when the league was in its early stages and now has children playing in it.

“It was all baseball in Westfield,” she said. “It’s come a long way. I was here before (Habig) fields opened and we just played the last game on them.”

WYSO will play it games at Shamrock Springs Elementary School next season before eventually moving out to Grand Park.

“It’s going to be different not being out here (at Habig),” Carlstedt said. “The city has embraced sports and took it to the next level. It’s very positive.”

On Feb. 7, 2009, Carlstedt was inducted into the Indiana Soccer Hall of Fame. In addition to his involvement in Westfield, Carlstedt has volunteered at Indiana Youth Soccer as a commissioner and a long time state registrar on the Indiana Youth Soccer Board.

After eight years of officiating high school games, Carlstedt decided to retire.

“I couldn’t keep up with a high schooler on a fast break. You have to recognize when you might be a detriment,” he said.

Carlstedt likes to be outside, and to stay in shape he runs.

“I ran 3.6 miles yesterday,” he said. “I’ve ran in the Indianapolis Mini Marathon every year but a few since it began.”

Slowing down is not in the cards for Carlstedt, who recently read an article about a 95-year-old man officiating soccer games.

“That’s my goal now,” he said with a smile. “If I make that I’ll be fine. As long as I can, I’ll stay out here.”

Meet Bruce Carlstedt Age: 70 | Residence: Westfield | Hometown: Batavia, Ill. Family: wife, Sharon; and children, Eric, Heather, Matt and Tim. Hobbies: Soccer, fishing, photography, running and being involved at his church, Our Lady of Mount Carmel.

Employment: Semi-retired – teaches pharmacy at Purdue University.

Personal quote: “Have fun. When I look at all the many things I do, I have too much fun. That’s part of it.”

Badmouthing the wealthy

Since President Barack Obama loves to badmouth the wealthy, we thought we’d take a moment to defend them. Well, one of them, anyway. Bill Gates, of Microsoft fame (Yes, he built that!). As you may have heard, through the work of The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, he has helped to eradicate polio in India. Now, we know Obama won’t brag about this, but we will. Eradicated polio in India! Just to be clear, Obama is now increasing the taxes on people like Gates, thinking it is more important to send yet more money to Washington.

Oh, sure, that money will be much better spent in D.C. But, we should be fair: Obama did eradicate any semblance of a viable healthcare Website, didn’t he?

••• Now that our Liar in Chief is backpedaling on his “If you like your (health-insurance) plan, you can keep it” promise, we continue to see more of Obama’s true character (or lack of it). We believe this all amounts to nothing more than a bait-and-switch tactic, which, in the private sector, is illegal. We also find it amusing listening to Obama refer to these soon-to-be-cancelled policies as sub-par. Well, shouldn’t it be our choice whether we want to keep a sub-par product? After all, if it weren’t for America’s love of all things sub-par, you wouldn’t be in office, Mr. President, would you?

••• Hey, just asking: Where did the Libertarian Party go? Isn’t now the time to seize the middle and work toward 2016?

Open doors

The art of not shaving Commentary by Terry Anker In solidarity with my fellow Y chromosomes, this year I am participating in the annual ritual known by the rather clever portmanteau, Movmember (http://us.movember.com). Much like the wearing of pink in October for National Breast Cancer Awareness Month shows solidarity and support for those affected by the disease, men are encouraged to allow the hair on their upper lip to grow unfettered for 31 days to bring forward discussions of prostate and testicular cancer and other health concerns related to males.

While the international movement really only calls upon us to grow mustaches, I’ve decided to make the awkward transition from clean-shaven to burly by allowing for a full beard – perhaps to be reduced only at month’s end. Like much of life’s passage this has been a learning experience. Initially, I undertook the mission as more of a lark than a serious commitment. Having not seen my face under fur, it struck my curiosity.

What I’ve found is that folks are very curious

as to why my normal, hairless facial appearance has been altered. Several times per day, conversations begin with some remark about the motivation for my unshorn countenance and end with often intimate retellings of how men’s cancers have affected them or those they love. In a whisker of time, I’ve learned formerly unknown personal details of men and women that I’ve known for many years. Sometimes the stories are heartwarming and other times they are tragic. But a silly beard turned out to be the key to open the dialogue.

I’ve also taken note that these things itch – a lot.

Those experienced in matters hirsute tell me that the sensitivity to my new outwear will pass in a matter of days. But even as the scratching diminishes, I hope our attention to men’s health remains.

Westfield Washington Schools Supt. Mark Keen says the district’s buildings were built using public funds and should be utilized by the community. Churches, sports leagues and other organizations use the variety of facilities from basketball courts to multipurpose rooms.

In another effort to open its doors to the community, Westfield Washington Schools is hosting a Thanksgiving dinner. Officials said the event is free to the public and all are welcome to attend – those in need, those who may need socialization, those without plans or those who want to volunteer. Donations will be accepted but are not required.

The dinner will be held 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Nov. 28 in Westfield Middle School’s cafeteria, 345 W. Hoover St. Organizers ask that those interested in attending RSVP by Nov. 21 to student nutrition services at 867-8061.

This is the first time the district and Sodexho have teamed together to give back to the community with the holiday meal.

To make the event the best it can be, volunteers are sought to help set up, cook, serve and clean up on Nov. 27 and 28. Those interested in volunteering are asked to e-mail lunchtime@wws.k12.in.us and include their availability. Volunteers will be given an assignment for the day they sign up to serve.

Thanksgiving is a time to take stock and be thankful for the many blessings in our lives.

While some may be more blessed than others, as a community it is important to offer opportunities like this for those who may not have a special meal or anyone to share it with. While Westfield continues to grow, it’s the heartfelt motives that keep its small town charm.

We are on the brinx of the holiday season and I haven’t yet put in a shameless plug for my book. (Gasp!) But no worries, I’m going to do it right now, leaving you plenty of humor time to make a huge dent in your shopping list and put some muchneeded ca-ching in my bank account.

So without further ado … buy my book! Titled “Peace Out!”, this uniquely named anthology retails for an amazingly low, low price of $15.99, making it the perfect gift for friends and foes alike. Didn’t know I’d written one? Well now you do, so buy it. You can easily order 10 or 20 authentic copies at either Amazon.com or Barnesandnoble.com, and still have time to get your kids to basketball practice.

What’s it about? Me, of course. Along with my bald husband and crazy kids and a since-deceased gecko, among other things. In a nutshell, “Peace Out!” is a collection of the best articles from my first three years of writing for Current.

That means for most of you, it’s brand new hilarious material, including but not limited to, how Doo came to be called Doo and my infamous observations of a certain 2007 PTO fundraiser which nearly got me fired. Even if you’ve had the honor of reading my stuff since the beginning (lucky you), my book will be a glorious walk down memory lane. (Who can forget the time my 3-year-old dropped trow in the main lobby of the

library to the absolute horror of a sour-faced old biddy? That’s pure comedy, people.)

But wait, there’s more. If you order now, you can also have the pleasure of reading my favorite hate mail, which I have conveniently collected for you in an easily accessible appendix. Still not convinced? How about this angle: You’d be helping out a public school teacher who is currently working 10 hours a day without a contract. No? Nothing?

Well, if not for me, then think about how many of your out-of-town friends and family who would just love to come home to a real, honest, highly entertaining look at parenting and marriage, but sadly cannot because they don’t receive Current. It’s a disgrace, certainly, but now you can help. Buy my book and send some Christmas/Hanukkah love their way. What’s a measly $15.99 (plus shipping and handling) when it comes to the happiness of your peeps?

Bottom line, folks, the last check from my publishing company, Dog Ear, was only $3.79, profit from my total book sales in October, and I only have a few weeks until Santa is scheduled for a drive-by. Consider helping a gal out during this holiday season through the purchase of my book: Peace Out! (Now available!)

Military historian and arms collector Fred Ropkey died this past week. He opted out of medical treatments that might have prolonged his life for a few months. After 84 years, humor he was not surrendering. He had simply decided to face this final challenge unarmed.

Ropkey was no fan of war. Few people are.

Yet he knew that every tank, aircraft and piece of artillery he recovered was not only a work of exquisite design, but combined they represented the hundreds, maybe thousands, of lives that had been lost – or saved.

His passion, which was almost an obsession, got its roots early. At age 8, his parents gave him a World War I sword and a Civil War pistol belonging to his great-grandfather. At age 16 he bought an armored World War II scout car and drove it to school. He tried to enlist in the Marines, but he was too young. He would later serve during the Korean conflict as a battalion commander.

Ropkey’s collection of arms grew over the years, and he stowed his thousands of acquisitions on the sprawling 100 acres of family land (dating back to the Great Depression) on the northwest side of Indianapolis. At the time, says his longtime mechanic, Skip Warvel, the idea was to simply find a place to restore those treasures. But it was really more a warehouse than

a showcase. In 2005, Ropkey moved everything to Crawfordsville, signaling a new vision and purpose.

“Build it and they will come,” his wife, Lani, recalls him saying. Then he added, “Who would think that a little pole barn on a 50-acre cornfield in Crawfordsville could change so many lives?” It was no longer simply a standing building; it was a building that stood for something. He called it the Ropkey Armor Museum.

To the end, Ropkey loved digging into history and uncovering the human stories behind each piece he salvaged. “We can fix that,” he would say to Warvel. The mission was simple: No matter the degree of disrepair, it was an obligation to resurrect the piece, honoring those who had lived and died in it. “Everything in the museum runs, flies, or floats, but the cannons don’t fire,” said Warvel, who uses the original spec manuals to make repairs.

Fred Ropkey could converse knowledgeably (and endlessly) about every U.S. combat mission in WWII. At the end of his life, he chose not to share his plight with others, instead enduring his cancer pain privately. This was the one battle Fred Ropkey did not want to talk about.

There’s something strange in my inbox Commentary by Mike Redmond I’ve been getting some peculiar e-mails lately.

I realize this does not set me apart in any way. Let’s face it, if you have access to a computer and the Weird Wide Internet humor thingie – and that takes in about 85 percent of us – you’re going to get some e-mails that raise your eyebrows, with subjects ranging from untold riches awaiting in Nigerian bank accounts to methods of enlarging (or diminishing) various body parts, to faucets. No kidding. I get a lot of messages about faucets.

It all comes back to something I’ve repeated at the dinner table every Thanksgiving for the last (mumble) years: Give us humans an amazing piece of technology, and we’ll find a way to abuse it. Invent the car, we’ll run it into a tree.

Put the telephone in widespread use, and immediately someone will start calling during supper to ask for money. Come up with TV, and you’ll get 600 channels with nothing worth watching. We can’t help it. We are attracted to shiny things, but our first impulse always seems to be figuring out ways to take the shine off of them.

It should be apparent that I am used to a certain amount of weirdness in my inbox. In fact, I may be more accustomed to it than most, just by virtue of not being wired the same as an average human. Even so, occasionally something

comes in over the transom that is unusual, even for me, and that gets me back to the beginning: I’ve been getting some peculiar e-mails lately. I open my mailbox and there they are.

The sender: “Bra.” That’s all it says. Just “Bra.” The subject: “Buying a bra? Check out these tips.”

Wow. Did they get a wrong number. I feel like writing back: Dear Bra: Thanks so much for your recent e-mail. It was very thoughtful of you to assume that I would need some tips about buying you, seeing as how I am a guy and can honestly say that this is one thing I know absolutely nothing about purchasing. However, upon reflection I have determined that I would like to keep it this way. Your pal, Mike. P.S. If you see your friend Faucets, tell him that I’m not interested in what he’s selling, either. Thanks.

That should do it, don’t you think? Then I can go use the one feature of e-mail technology that I have come to appreciate most deeply – the delete button. But not before I claim all those riches awaiting me in Nigeria.

Hauling out the holly at Beef & Boards

By Karen Kennedy • karenk@youarecurrent.com As Auntie Mame says, “We need a little Christmas, right this very minute.”

“A Beef and Boards Christtheatre mas,” is a healthy holiday dose of singing, dancing, festive costumes and, of course, turkey with all the trimmings.

This year’s show features an all-new quartet presenting several new arrangements in a glittering celebration of the season. The show opens Nov. 29 and runs through Dec. 23.

“This show is our Christmas greeting to the city,” said Beef and Boards spokesperson Patricia Rettig. “We have families who have included us in their Christmas tradition since their children first came to see Santa, and those children are in college now. There are thirty-two performances, so you really can’t miss it.”

This year’s production features sixteen singer-dancers and an on-stage band of seven.

Several of the lead cast members are currently in the cast of “Les Miserables,” including featured vocalist Kelly Teal Goyette, along with Bobbi Bates, Peter Scharbrough and Dominic Sheahan-Stahl. Newcomer Emily Rogge rounds out the group.

Vt., but her home base now is New York City.

Since 2008, she has traveled the country with national touring companies of “Annie,” “Grease”

and “Shrek the Musical.”

“I’ve spent more time subletting my apartment than sitting in it,” she said.

And Goyette said she is excited to be a part of the Christmas show.

“I get to sing my favorite Christmas song of all time, ‘O Holy Night,’” Goyette said. “I’m also doing several songs that are new to me; it’s great to learn Christmas songs I’ve never heard of before. And the members of the quartet have said that the new arrangements are very cool; some jazzy, some bluesy. They’re all very excited about how the rehearsals are going.”

In addition to some new holiday songs, the set list includes traditional holiday favorites and songs designed to get toes tapping, such as “Boogie Woogie Santa Claus” and “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree.” Returning audience members will recognize the familiar faces of cohosts Deb Wims and Kenny Shepard, who have hosted the show since its inception.

And, of course, there’s a star on a backstage dressing room door with Santa’s name on it, so bring your list and don’t forget to be nice.

Classic fairy tale comes to Tarkington

By Karen Kennedy • karenk@youarecurrent.com

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a multitude of pictures, combined with lyrical words and music, must make for theatre an evening that is anything but sleepy.

That combination can be found when New York-based master storyteller, musician, poet and actor David Gonzalez brings his unique presentation of “Sleeping Beauty” to the Tarkington Theatre Nov. 22 and 23.

“This is my interpretation of the classic fairy tale,” said Gonzalez in a phone interview from Chicago. “It is told entirely in rhymed verse, accompanied by musical and visual elements: a wonderful video, a ‘living storybook’ if you will, created by Karen Jenson, and a lush, musical tapestry in the form of Bach’s Goldberg Variations performed on piano by Daniel Kelly. The show has lots of layers to it, but it also stays true to the essence of the story.”

“I have performed this show from New York to Alaska to Florida,” Gonzalez said. “And now we come to Carmel. And this show is particularly special because Karen Jenson’s family is all from Carmel, so the whole family will be at the show to celebrate.”

The show combines poetry, visual storytelling and music in a developing art form that Gonzalez continues to create. It’s just another extension of his talents. He is a Drama-Desk-nominated artist who has toured nationally and internationally.

Thanksgiving dinner BBQ Turkey

Original recipe makes 12 servings Ingredients: 2 cups butter, divided; 1 (15 pound) whole turkey, neck and giblets removed; 1/4 cup chicken soup base; 3 sweet onions, peeled and cut into wedges; 5 apples, cored and cut into wedges; 2 tablespoons minced garlic, or to taste; 1 (750 milliliter) bottle dry white wine Directions: Preheat a gas grill for low heat. Rub some of the butter all over the turkey, inside and out, then rub all over with chicken base. Cut remaining butter into cubes and toss with onions, apples, and garlic in a large bowl. Stuff the bird with this mixture and place in a disposable aluminum roasting pan. Fold the turkey skin around the neck area to cover the hole and then turn the turkey over and pour wine into the opening at the other end until the turkey is full or the bottle is empty. Set the turkey breast side up. Place the roasting pan on the grill and cover loosely with aluminum foil.

If you have a pop up timer or heat safe meat thermometer, insert it into the turkey breast. Close the lid. Roast until the temperature in the breast reads 170 degrees F (75 degrees C) and the temperature

in the thickest part of the thigh reads 180 degrees C (80 degrees C), about 4 hours depending on the temperature of your grill. When the temperature is getting close, remove the aluminum foil covering the turkey and allow it to brown during the final minutes of cooking. If it starts to brown too much, just cover it back up. Allow the turkey to rest for at least 20 minutes before carving.

Preparing for the unexpected – What happens to student loan debt when the borrower dies? The answer: It depends, based on the type of loan. The U.S. Dept. of Education says federal student loans will be discharged upon death. Parent PLUS federal loans can be discharged if either the student or the parent borrower dies. With private student loans the answer is more complex, but generally lenders will not forgive loans after death. It’s common for private student loans to require a co-signer, often the student’s parent. In most cases, banks expect co-signers to assume responsibility for the loan after a death. There are exceptions: Sallie Mae’s “Smart Option Student Loan,” launched in 2009, forgives loans when students die. But generally, banks will attempt to collect payment from the deceased’s estate, and then turn to co-signers.

Building permits up 20 percent news@currentinwestfield.com Central Indiana building permit reports indicate that single-family permits increased 20 percent in October compared to October housing 2012. There were 4,308 new home permits issued this year compared to the 3,585 issued in 2012.

“Although reports indicate a slight decrease in permits from last month, we continue to see a significant increase over last year’s numbers,” said Steve Lains, CEO of the Builders Association of Greater Indianapolis. “Forecasters believe that we will continue to see steady increases in 2014.

A slight decrease from last month was expected because of the time of year, but what’s ultimate-

ly important is the year-to-year overall increase which is moving in the right direction.”

A recent Kiplinger economic report found that the pent-up demand will continue to elevate permit numbers in 2014. According to that report, housing is critical to the U.S. economy.

“It’s not just from home sales, but in state and local government revenue, sales of furniture, appliances, etc., and the spin-off from income earned by construction crews, realtors and more,” the report said.

In central Indiana the permits issued through October 2013 are estimated to create a total economic impact of $771 million in local income, $175 million in local taxes and 13,062 local jobs, year to date.

Question from Harold P. from Fishers: We got our first dose of winter weather this week, and I was reminded that insurance people completely forget how to drive when snow hits the ground. I witnessed a minor fender-bender and am wondering what I need to do if that happens to me.

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

1. Take a deep breath and assess the situation. Get your vehicle and passengers out of further harm if the vehicle is still operable.

2. Make sure that no one in your vehicle requires immediate medical attention. Check the occupants of any other vehicle involved next.

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

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

5. Pull out your camera phone and snap some pictures of your car from every angle and of any damage it now has.

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

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

I recommend limits of $250,000 per injured person, $500,000 per accident and $100,000 for property damage with an endorsement to protect you from uninsured and underinsured motorists. These raised limits will also allow you to add a personal umbrella policy to further protect you in extreme cases. You can also get a nice discount by packaging these policies together with your homeowners policy. Adding comprehensive and collision coverages and adjusting the cost of your deductibles is something you should talk with your independent agent about.

Let me know if you have any further questions about this and drive safely.

But, with a 90 percent on UrbanSpoon, second: “Historical.” it does sound like a good place to grab lunch – Helpful, isn’t it? historic or otherwise.

The situation with “historic” and “historical” is this: They mean the same thing … except when they don’t.

Book of Kells: great Irish treasure Commentary by Donald Knebel

The library of Trinity College in Dublin houses thousands of rare and ancient books. Visitors from around the world queue for travel up to an hour to see just one of them. Two volumes of the famous Book of Kells, now separated into four volumes, are always displayed in the library’s Treasury room.

The Book of Kells, one of Ireland’s greatest treasures, is a lavishly illustrated edition of the four Gospels, scripted in Latin. The illustration style is known as insular, but the Book of Kells is in a league of its own, not only for the extraordinary quality of its many illustrations but for their originality and unexpected playfulness. One illustration shows a green-striped cat trying to stop a mouse from eating a communion wafer. Another shows a man wrestling a peacock, an ancient symbol of immortality. The letter beginning one passage is formed from a man strangling a bird.

So unusual is the colorful imagery of the Book of Kells that Umberto Eco, an Italian historical novelist, wrote recently that it was the “product of a cold-blooded hallucination,” a fact proudly noted in the guidebook sold in the library’s gift shop.

Exactly when the Book of Kells was created is not known. It was likely produced in the late eighth century by Irish monks seeking to promote their Christian faith. A full-page illustration contains the West’s oldest surviving manuscript image of the Virgin Mary. Mary, like others depicted in the Book of Kells, has an oversized head and distinctive large eyes, looking straight ahead. So similar is this style to the art of early Egyptian Christians (Copts) that scholars have long theorized a connection between Irish and Coptic missionaries. That theory gained greater credence with the recent discovery in Ireland of a fragment of the Psalms written on papyrus, a material native to Egypt but unknown in Ireland.

The Book of Kells has made the library of Trinity College one of Ireland’s top tourist attractions, right up there with the Blarney Stone.

Dublin provides the bonus of a beautiful city with a terrific zoo and a Guinness Storehouse offering free samples.

Upholstery: Choices, choices Commentary by Vicky Earley

Winter maintenance for homes Commentary by Randy Sorrell

Frosty windows and a dusting of snow on the lawn is motivation for completing critical winter preparation duties. It’s not the outdoors most joyful thing to do, but just as necessary as mulching landscaped beds in the spring. Here’s a glimpse at my personal list and a note of encouragement.

1. Clean gutters and downspouts are perhaps the most critical. As snow melts, clogged gutters can create ice dams and eventually cause moisture in your basement or crawl space.

2. Inspect the outside of your house for anything alarming … loose shingles, HVAC hoses dangling, etc. Call your handyman for assistance.

3. Change landscape lighting and coach lamp bulbs while the weather is mild and simultaneously clean the lens.

4. A respectful layer of mulch is especially critical on azaleas, rhododendrons, dogwood trees and spruce. Buy a few bags for ease of spreading.

5. Take an inventory of ice melt, snow shovel,

windshield scraper, gloves and boots before you need them.

6. Properly outfit the car with items in #5 too.

7. Drain gas from lawn equipment or fill with fuel stabilizer. Take any equipment that needs repair to your favorite shop.

8. Drain and store garden hoses … or not.

Mine have survived 3 years outside, but it’s a risk. Take “at risk” urns inside after emptying.

9. Clean beds are happy beds … same with your lawn too. Remove leaves and other debris. Your neighbors will be filled with joy.

10. Need firewood or bird seed? Stock up now.

Finally, and most importantly, take a few minutes to be grateful and help someone else be happy. Most of us are in need of a few healing words and you can make a difference. Be a builder of people, not a destroyer.

If you have ever tried to order custom upholstery on your own, you can relate. Upholstered furniture is a Rubik’s cube decorating of options. One mistake and the piece can be an absolute dog. One unexpected but calculated touch and it can be spectacular.

Just the arm options available make it incredibly confusing for the inexperienced to make selections.

First there is the rolled arm. You have seen this countless times as it is a traditional look that works well with loose cushions and provides easy seating.

The track arm is square on top and will take a piece of furniture down a more modern path.

The textile selection is tricky with the track arm in that pattern matching becomes almost impossible.

The English arm is a first cousin to the rolled arm but it is typically lower and is paired with tight backs rather than cushioned backs.

The tuxedo arm is the current darling of the upholstery world. It is typically the same height as the back of the sofa giving it a fabulous focal point position in a room.

Once the preferred arm style has been determined, the legs enter the picture. Here we really get complicated because it’s about more than

just personal preference. It has to work with the arm and cushion selection or it will end up being an upholstery “mutt.”

The turned leg is the most traditional of the options out there. Some will be simple, others quite ornate.

The block leg, which includes buntype legs, offers a casual, laid back feeling. It can go very modern if it covers a large expanse of the piece.

The pin leg is a throwback to the post-modern era. It is that long, cone-shaped leg that would be found on virtually every chair on the television series, “Madmen.”

If all those choices weren’t enough, the type of finish will impact the style. A rich walnut will tap down a modern leg while a high gloss lacquered color will take the most traditional turned leg and make it kicky and modern.

Regardless of your style, a plan is critical. It really isn’t about random choice based on what looks good on a sample ring. It is imperative to have a vision of the completed piece or that upholstery mutt just might be barking up your tree.

Investing in new countertops Commentary by David Decker

big role in affecting the functionality of the material. In terms of functionality, stone options are inherently more durable than solid surfaces. Because laminates and solid surfaces can scratch, dirt and bacteria can hide in these crevasses.

The decision comes down to your personal preference. Great looking countertops can be made from any of these materials. However, if you are willing to make the investment, choosing a stone material may pay off in the long run.

Stone materials are generally more expensive than other options, but they are typically more long lasting and valued by potential homebuyers.

If you know that a move might be coming in the near future, stone might be the way to go.

With all these options and considerations to weigh, selecting new countertops can be a difficult task. If you’re looking for a little guidance, The Affordable Companies Website is a great resource full of blog posts, links and photos that can help you make the best selection for your home. No two homes require the exact same solution, so get creative and search for a countertop that will improve the look and functionality of your kitchen.

Because they take up so much visual space, countertops are one of the keystones of kitchen design. It’s amazing to see the Indoors difference that new countertops can make in a room, even if all of the other elements (such as flooring or cabinetry) stay the same. On the flip side, damaged or dated looking countertops can drag down the aesthetics and functionality of your kitchen. If you only have the time or money to make a single upgrade in the kitchen, chances are that investing in new countertops is a smart way to go.

When selecting new countertops, the first thing you’ll need to consider is the type of material. Each material has certain positive and negative aspects that you should be aware of before making a purchasing decision. Stone (such as granite and quartz) has become one of the most popular choices for homeowners looking to upgrade their kitchen countertops. Stone is easy to clean, durable against heat and resistant to bacterial buildup. It is also scratch-resistant, while other options are not.

While stone is a popular choice, it’s far from David Decker is president of the the only choice. Also available on the market are Affordable Companies, which include solid surfaces and laminates.
