Holy Heartfailure, It’s Batman!

By Michelle Freed

Just when I finally got up enough nerve to join the whole planking craze that hit the U.S. over the last year, another trend has come along. It’s called batmanning, and I’m a little discouraged.

In case you’ve missed out on all the excitement, batmanning is just one in a line of social media phenomenon that involves taking pictures of people doing strange things in public. I will bring you up to speed: Planking – This is a popular and well-documented ritual

of publicly laying facedown, stiff-as-a-board, with arms touching the sides. The planker must be photographed, and evidence is shared online. I have never attempted to plank, although I once fell asleep in a doctor’s office in the same position. Unfortunately, a teenager captured it on his cell phone. He then exclaimed, “Way cool,” before posting it on his Facebook page.

Owling – This lesser known practice consists of posing

crouched, like an owl, in unexpected places, such as on top of a public structure or in the middle of a sporting event. I can’t properly owl, as once I am in the necessary crouching position, it takes at least an hour and four assistants to get me back up, which proves to be too complicated and timeconsuming.

Horsemaning – A trend that took its name from

the Headless Horseman, this involves considerable forethought and creativity. Two people pose for a picture

Carmel’s Trick or Treat Hours: 5-8 pm Carmel’s Police Department has announced that the official hours of trick or treating in the City will be Monday, October 31 from 5 to 8 p.m.

Homes welcoming trick or treaters should turn on their porch lights. If you do not wish to receive trick or treaters or have run out of candy, please turn porch lights off. While there are many neighborhoods and other organizations that hold their own Halloween events and celebrations, they encourage those who want to trick or treat door-to-door to use the City’s official hours to do so.

so that a subject’s body appears to be decapitated. Talk about a buzz kill. One person has to be the head, and the other the body. I’m not kidding. Google it if you don’t believe me. When I asked a friend to participate in horsemaning, she just looked at me blankly and told me I needed to see a therapist.

Batmanning – And now we come to the

good stuff. Purdue students are actually getting the credit for coming up with this one (Go Boilermakers!). This involves the fine art of hanging upside down by your feet (like a bat), from public structures.

Whether your hands are at your side or folded across your chest is completely up to you.

My first reaction to batmanning was: what if you fall? It’s not like you can whip your feet around to land, cat-like, firmly on your feet. You will most likely bash your head on a hard surface, which would be a drawback. Being the serious journalist that I am, I immediately contacted my nephew, who is a sophomore at Purdue, in order to get reaction. When I asked him for his thoughts, he simply replied, “It seems pretty dumb to me.”

My second reaction to batmanning was this: do you need special shoes? The answer, quite sadly, is no. There are no official batmanning shoes with special hooks, velcro or steel brackets. You just have to be able to keep your ankles at a 90 degree angle while supporting your entire weight … upside down. I have a suspicion that wearing a helmet would somehow be frowned upon.

I’m thinking about inventing some sort of inflatable pillow that could be placed underneath the batmanner, just in case.

Obviously, I would call it The Bat Bumper. But probably by the time I get the patent and a prototype, this practice will be old news and a new fad will take its place.

In the meantime, I’m going to have to decline any batmanning invitations. There’s no way I’m hanging upside down in public. But perhaps at the doctor’s office …

A Haunting Good Time Like No Other

each with their own unique theme and staff. There’s the Corpse Manor – an old manor built on a graveyard with its foundation made of dispirited tombstones. You have the chance to visit the home of Lord Henry Calvert, who has been dealing with strange happenings at his manor since the day he moved in.

If you’re looking for a good scare on Halloween, there’s a new haunted house in town. But be warned, they take their scares seriously.

The Corpse Manor opens this month in the Post Road Recreation Center just south of Pendleton Pike. But this is more than a haunted house put together just for Halloween.

This is a professional theatrical production featuring real actors and actresses working for one common goal – to SCARE you. There are three haunted attractions in one,

You may experience some of those strange happenings when you visit, and you may find that some of the spirits from the dead souls have never left! You be the judge. The floors are uneven, the rooms are in disarray and the hallways are very narrow … so there’s not much room to get away when something creepy comes at you – and yes, something creepy will!

There’s also an attraction called Night Shadows, which is simply a play on our biggest fear – fear of the dark.

A haunted trail awaits visitors next door called Sinister Woods – a wooded lot with no place to hide.

Owners Dan Justus and Bob Kints have traveled the country checking out some of the best haunted houses and are excited to open the Post Road attraction. “It is actually a year

So this year when making your list of haunted houses to check out, don’t forget to include the Corpse Manor, Night Shadows and Sinister Woods, all at 4700 N. Post Road located at the Post Road Recreation Center, where you can find fun and snacks… that is, if you have an appetite left after visiting the haunted attractions!

A Haunting We Will Go — to the Children’s Museum!

By Pat Carlini

This year’s theme for the haunted house is “Vampire Some ladies of the Children’s Museum Vacation,” where Guild: From top left, Allison Steck, Carol visitors vacation with Clark, Dawn Vande Berg, Alli Stitle, Kristin Lewis and Melissa Duffy. From a vampire family bottom left, Anne Steinberg, Amy Clark to popular “dead and Debbie Polian. destinations” across the U.S. such as “Moonhatten” and a trip out west to “Count Rushmore.”

The Children’s Museum is gearing up for another haunting season with the 48th annual Haunted House event! It is the museum’s largest annual fundraiser and largest volunteer effort – with many of those volunteers coming from the Giest, Fishers and the Carmel areas!

“We are excited about this year Haunted House and hoping for another big success!” says In-Kind Sponsorhip Co-Chair and Geist resident Melissa Duffy.

Duffy is referring to last year’s record breaking season where more than 62,000 visited the Haunted House and generated more than a half a million dollars for the Children’s Museum.

Last year’s Haunted House, which was led by two Geist residents Melanie Fitzgerald and Christy Becker, gained national attention for being named one of the top ten haunted housed in the U.S, by Rand McNally online.

“We tapped into the vampire craze that is big with kids now and it gave us a great mascot, too,” says this year’s Haunted House co-Chair Amy Clark.

There’s a total of about 100 Guild members who are a very dedicated group of volunteers who carefully design, build and run the Haunted House each year.

“I don’t know how we manage to top ourselves year after year, but we do!” says last year’s Co-Chair Christy Becker.

Sponsorship CO-Chair and says she got involved as a volunteer to give back to the community and network.

“I’m a CPA by training and I volunteer while my son is in school so I am also able to meet a lot people and network along the way,” says Dawn.

When haunting season arrives, the ladies from the guild rely on their families to help them haunt.

Teens also receive service hours for helping out. The Haunted House opens at the Children’s Museum downtown on October 15th with the traditional lights on times for youngsters and scary lights off times for those who dare to be scared.

So when visiting the Haunted House this fall, keep in mind it could be a neighbor taking your ticket at the door or better yet, jumping out of a dark corridor to give you a scare!

FanStand Prints: Offering a Win-Win Situation for All Sports Fans Story by Janet C. Striebel Photos by Brenda Staples Photography

FanStand Prints, a rising company, offers custom high quality products using your favorite photo images. Wouldn’t it be great to take a precious photo of your son catching a baseball or your daughter dancing with her team, and transform it into a plush blanket or stunning wall decal for their bedroom? Well, now you can take advantage of transferring your snapshots into lifelong mementos with FanStand Prints. What’s more, schools and other sports facilities can have custom wind screens or banners placed on their fields, enhancing the façade of their domain, making it appear sufficiently sophisticated to all the fans.

“I would have absolutely loved having an action shot of myself when I was a kid,” says Kory Seitz, co-owner of FanStand Prints. “My mom once made me a quilt, piecing different memories of me in several sports that I played which meant a lot to me… but I would have been so thrilled to see my face up on a personalized banner of the facility where I played.”

This concept has actually been realized at Westfield High School when the baseball coach, last spring, asked FanStand Prints to dress their field with mesh windscreens featuring their seniors. These banners looked so incredible that the Westfield football team, this fall, has decided to highlight each of its seniors along with the cheerleaders on 33 banners.

“These products sell themselves,” says Seitz, who has also sold banners to the Carmel High School volleyball team. He is also talking with other prospects on the college level, such as Indiana Wesleyan University, about making banners for the soccer team.

Seitz continues, “We are not restricted to just printing sports items. We can print everything from baby blankets and other individualized images to 4-H, band, and more. No event group is off limits.”

Co-owners of FanStand Prints Rory Underwood (standing) and Kory Seitz hope their bigger than life keepsakes hit a homerun in the team fundraising arena.

FanStand Prints specializes in three main products: banners/windscreens, blankets and wall decals. The unique feature about this | oc tober 2011

9/27/11 7:51 PM

Sports fans can take advantage of this opportunity either by the “Partnership Program” or by “Team Fundraising Options.”

The “Partnership Program” allows teams to earn a profit and offer discounts to their athletes. If players on a particular team, and all their respective fans (family and friends ) enter a given code when purchasing products, 10% of all sales can either be paid directly to the program or discounted for their athletes.

Co-owner Rory Underwood’s daughter, Paige, displays a FanStand Prints blanket featuring individualized athletic players with personalization.

company is how it transfers the image from a photo onto a custom template or background of your choice. In fact, you can even choose to design your product by highlighting an image of your child in color with the background set in black and white for special emphasis.

Placing an order online requires just three easy steps. First, choose your product (banner, blanket or decal).

Second, choose your template or background. Third, upload your photo.

Due to the sizing of the products, the photos submitted should represent high quality (DPI of 300 or better). If the production crew does not feel your photo is satisfactory, they will notify you in advance and work with you on another option.

Promoting Student Athletes While Giving Back at the Same Time The main goal of FanStand Prints is to help supplement the rising costs of organized sports. With schools charging participation fees and travel costs, it has the opportunity to offer a one-of-a-kind product to promote student athletes while giving back at the same time.

Another clever way to benefit from using FanStand Prints is by “Team Fundraising.” Can you believe a minimum amount of 50% of a fundraiser package will be given back to the program? For example, suppose your high school athlete finds a company to sponsor him/her. Similar to a golf outing, the sponsor can choose a level of fundraising with which to participate.

Seitz welcomes anyone who would be interested in becoming a sales representative. He suggests, “Anyone having connections with sports from youth leagues to college level would be a good fit with our company. There’s no specific time commitment necessary for being a rep for us. You can either work part time with people you already know, or full time, if you want to replace an existing job.”

For more information, please email Kory Seitz at Kory@fanstandprints. com and/or visit the FanStand Print website at www.fanstandprints.com.

Wall hangings, wind screens, towels, blankets and even wall stickers are just some of the possibilities with FanStand Prints.

The athlete will receive a special keepsake in return – a 4×6 personal banner! Plus, the sponsor will receive recognition on the banner of the athlete they sponsor, which is hung on the school’s facility grounds. Furthermore, the higher the level of sponsorship, the more money your program makes and the more the athlete receives with free items.

“When it comes to fundraising, what parent or kid wouldn’t be enthused about getting something to keep as a memory and at the same time, dressing up the facility?” asks Seitz, who says he was happy to jump on board this opportunity with FanStand Prints.

“Kory approached me with this concept and not only was I excited about the product but so were many of the people I shared it with,” says Rory Underwood, co-owner of FanStand Prints. “It ties in with my ownership of the The Strike Zone baseball facility and seemed like a good way for me to continue my interest in supporting oc tober 2011 |

and promoting youth sports in the community. We hope to be able to work with schools, youth teams… etc. to offer some fundraising opportunities as a way to give back.”

Restaurant Review by Reid Duffy

Donatello’s Italian Restaurant Story by Reid Duffy | Photos by Mindy Fleming

On its website, the proprietors of Donatello’s Italian Restaurant describe their establishment, in the heart of downtown Carmel’s newly minted Arts and Design District, as “a new romantic destination” and “an homage to dining in a classier time. The days of ‘Mad Men’-esque executives enjoying a carefully cooked meal made from fresh ingredients. Servers treat you like royalty as you sit at tables with crisp white cloths… no TV’s to be distracted by sports.

No drunken locals trying to pick up women….”

I know my bride of more than three decades would find such an invitation alluring, having long despaired of enduring a romantic dinner with her dubious significant other at a contemporary restaurant, as he gazes lovingly into her azure blue eyes with his pea soup green left eye, while the right eye of the presumed same color drifts past her left earlobe to the hi-def TV looming over the bar area like a Diamond Vision screen at Lucas Oil Stadium, to see if Tiger, Phil, or Rory makes this tricky downhill, 8-foot birdie putt on 17 to take the lead in the third round of the Charlie Sheen Desert Classic in Modesto.

Said proprietors of Donatello’s Italian Restaurant bring lofty credentials and credibility to the concept of romantic dining with undivided attention on the cuisine and on the person you brung (or brung you). For Patrick and Beth Aasen presided over the fine dining jewel, Arturo’s Italian Restaurant, which enjoyed an acclaimed 12-year run in the classy Woodfield Center retail center off 86th and Keystone Avenue from 1991 to 2003, before essentially being forced out with other high-end tenants for a never consummated redevelopment plan that has rendered Woodfield Center Indianapolis’ classiest vacant retail center. Patrick, a chef and co-owner, assumed majority ownership when his co-owner, Donatello’s Chicken Marsala

Father-son duo Adam and Patrick Aasen bring their family-owned Italian restaurant to Carmel.

Di Rosa was just one of many legendary dining impresarios who gave Aasen his culinary education in fine dining kitchens in the area, including John Macri of Italian Village fame, and Italian-born Rudy Nucilla, who presided over the much beloved Rudy & Rosa’s bistro in the late 1980’s.

Donatello’s opened just in time for New Year’s Eve last year, on Carmel’s Main Street, just east of South Rangeline Road. It most reminds me of the relaxed, intimate country bistro ambiance achieved by Rudy & Rosa’s than the fine dining formality that marked Arturo’s. Beth Aasen brings a warmth to the décor, with tomato red walls adorned with soothing Impressionist land and seascape paintings, and tables covered in white linen. Operating on a very small start-up budget, the Aasens, along with their son Adam, did all of the internal construction, wiring, and decorating and whatall to craft their cozy Italian bistro. And by cozy, we’re talking just a 32-seat capacity – no bar, not a hi-def TV in sight… nothing to distract from the matter at hand, except for what the diner brings onto the premises in the form

For nothing should distract from the cuisine, and the sparkling conversation and romantic cooing designed to accompany it. The proceedings are nicely launched with slices of hot, fresh bread to be adorned with a mixture of olive oil, diced tomatoes and garlic.

Highlighting the appetizer menu are deep fried cheese ravioli with tomato dipping sauce ($7); the lightly fried calamari ($8), best shared to avoid appetite decimation; and my appetizer option of the evening, the Ravioli Gorgonzola ($7), large ravioli squares filled with a tasty five-cheese blend and emboldened in a flavorful cream sauce.

A spicier sauce featuring tomato, kalamata olives, pepperoncinis, capers, anchovies, and garlic, adorns penne pasta bearing the muscular moniker of Penne Puttanesca ($16). Penne pasta is also featured in a dish ($18) that takes in shrimp and a pesto sauce of olive oil, pine nuts and basil. A sauce made of cream, egg, bacon, and parmesan cheese graces the Spaghetti Carbonara ($16), while a rich creamed and cheesed sauce is the prime motivation to order the classic Fettuccini Alfredo ($17), infiltrated with sliced chicken, shallots and peas. A risotto dish with wild mushrooms ($16), with a 20-minute preparation time, features of sauce of stock and wine reduction.

This appears to be one of Aasen’s most popular entrees, enhanced by the extreme tenderness of the beef, the zesty kick provided by the crunchy peppercorns in the sauce, and the flavorful bite of the smooth Dijon sauce, fully complementing, not overwhelming the flavor goodness of the filet.

indulgence… or so I convinced myself. And all I really needed to know is that Mrs. Brunner’s Italian Cream Cake won the first place blue ribbon in the 2002 Indiana State Fair.

The dessert menu changes daily, with Aasen’s tiramisu already possessing a solid word-of-mouth, taste-of-tongue reputation, in tandem with the Italian cream cake, a specialty and valuable contribution of Beth’s mother, Susie Brunner.

The moist, delicately sweet white cake is effectively iced in a cream frosting sprinkled with flakes of coconut. This cake has a surprising lightness that helps assuage any guilt one might have with age- and waistline-related dessert

With just 32 seats, it doesn’t take long to achieve a full house just about any night at Donatello’s, with patrons arriving around 7 p.m. usually confronted with a fairly lengthy wait – with no bar to belly up to while biding one’s time, charming the companion with streams on bon mots, one eyed cocked on ESPN sports intelligence, and fingers poised to tweet and text. Thus, reservations are a very good idea, especially on the weekends, with the Aasens inviting dinersin-waiting to stroll Main Street and environs and take in the galleries and merchants that comprise the Carmel Arts and Design District. The establishment, located on the south side of 9 Main Street, has ample parking in the back.

The right gift, the right style, the right price... and just in time for

fabulous fall!

An early arrival should fit well in any dinner and theater plans you have as it applies to productions at the nearby Palladium.

And Donatello’s is also open for lunch, offering further opportunities to patronize an independent, family affair restaurant that again includes the Aasen’s son, Adam, a former and recovering newspaper reporter, fully prepared to help keep his parents’ restaurant on Main Street thriving and memorable.

Delaney’s is THE place to shop for the most on-trend clothing, jewelry and accessories. We have unique gifts for everyone on your list including home decor, candles, fine art, kitchen gear, body care and baby goodies. Hard to find personalized gifts as well.

Business Spotlight Wendy Blaylock with her son, Nick, after he completed a 6-month ReadRx program.

With his new found confidence in the classroom, Nick now plays soccer at Horizon Christian School near Geist.

LearningRx: Dealing with Dyslexia

By Marcia Ellett

When Wendy Blaylock’s son, Nick, was 9 or 10 she noticed he was having some issues in school. He kept asking his teachers to repeat things and often said, “I don’t understand what you’re asking.”

As several years rolled by, “he was having more and more trouble,” said Blaylock, and then his troubles started spilling into other areas of his life. He enjoyed playing soccer but didn’t understand what the coach wanted from him and eventually gave up the game, and his overall attitude began to reflect his lack of confidence and poor self-image.

Finally, someone recommended LearningRx Indianapolis in the Kroger plaza at 79th and Fall Creek in Geist, and,

9/27/11 7:59 PM

after assessment testing, Nick was enrolled in the cognitive training center’s ReadRx program.

It turned out that Nick was having difficulty processing information he heard. “He just wasn’t holding on to the material,” Blaylock explained. “He wasn’t processing the words fast enough.”

This could be considered a form of auditory dyslexia.

According to Lynne McCauley, Executive Director of LearningRx Indianapolis, “Many people associate reading issues with dyslexia, or flipping of letters, but it can often be more subtle and complex, and take on different forms.

Dyslexia – at its root – means trouble (‘dys’) with reading (‘lexia’).

“Generally people have trouble with either the sound part of reading – they are dysphonetic, or the visual part of reading – they are dysdeidetic. They can also be a combination of both, they are dysphoneidetic, they have trouble correctly perceiving or associating the sounds and the letters.”

In Nick’s case, he was having trouble with auditory processing, “the ability to analyze, synthesize, segment and blend sounds,” according to McCauley. “As we talk, read and write, we are analyzing, segmenting and synthesizing sounds into words, thoughts and ideas. Inaccuracies or inefficiencies in making sense of this information affects reading, writing, comprehension and spelling.”

With October being Dyslexia Awareness Month, now is a good time to point out that this disorder is quite common.

According to the National Institute of Health, it is estimated that up to 15 percent of the population has dyslexia in one form or another.

How does that translate in Indiana schools and beyond?

McCauley said, “According to the 2009 Nation’s Report Card, 59 percent of Indiana fourth graders do not read at a proficient level. By eighth grade 66 percent of our students are not proficient in reading. That is a crisis and unacceptable. If we don’t correct this problem soon, it will be difficult for our students to compete locally, nationally or globally for jobs. There are long-term consequences for all of us if this continues.”

She’s right. According to Future Works (2005), 960,000 to 1.2 million employed Hoosiers have literacy skills below the minimum standard required for successful employment.

McCauley explained, “Reading comprehension and retention can be greatly affected by an individual’s phonemic awareness. At a conscious level, we can typically only process one or two things at a time; everything else needs to move to the subconscious.

What Dyslexia Looks Like...

Imagine opening a book and reading: “Davip too kthe lid offthe de anutbut terj ar. Hek n ewhew asn otsud bosed t oea thefor eqinner, puth eplace dab igglo pof be anut dut teron hi sfinper a ndpquick lytri eptop utit inhism outh.”

Translation: “David took the lid off the peanut butter jar. He knew he wasn’t supposed to eat before dinner, but he placed a big glob of peanut butter on his finger and quickly put it in his mouth.”

While this is an extreme example, students who struggle to read may not recognize that they are making mistakes because this is their reality, what their brains perceive they are reading.

For more information on ways to combat dyslexia and other reading-related issues, contact LearningRx at (317) 845-1999 or visit www.learningrx.com.

“If I am spending most of my conscious resources making sense of letter/sound combinations, I have very few conscious resources left over to be able to evaluate, comprehend or retain what I just read,” she said.

All of this can lead children like Nick to throw their hands up in surrender, resigning them to an adulthood of continued struggle, but with programs like those offered through LearningRx, there is hope.

Blaylock said that after her son’s first session in the ReadRx program, “It was like a weight was lifted, and as the weeks went on he started feeling so much better about himself.

“The program taught him how to figure things out in his head,” she said.

Blaylock is happy to report that her son, who is an eighth-grader this year, is back in school and once again playing soccer.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month is Time to Share Stories and Strength

In the midst of her pain and fear of the unknown, Traci made an unprecedented contribution that could aid in the scientific advancement of breast cancer research. In 2007, after a friend died of breast cancer, Traci was moved to donate a healthy breast tissue sample to the Indianapolis-based, Susan G. Komen for the Cure Tissue Bank at IU Simon Cancer Center.

“You have cancer.” When Traci Runge heard

those paralyzing words, they sounded like a death sentence.

Having no family history of cancer, it didn’t make sense. She was a healthy wife and mother to three daughters, training for a triathlon and getting ready to run Race for the Cure when she was diagnosed with breast cancer in April 2010.

Three years later, as she stood in line to pick up her packet for Race for the Cure, newly diagnosed and fearing for her own life, she realized she may be able to save lives – by donating her cancerous breast tissue before starting chemotherapy and other treatments for the disease.

“My heart ached because I knew in my gut that it was bad. I cried for me but more importantly I cried for my three girls,” said Traci. “All I wanted to be was a mother and I was afraid I was going to die.”

“As I laid on the operating table undergoing the collection procedure, Dr. Susan Clare asked me if I had any idea what I had done today,” said Traci. “She told me I was the first person in the world to donate both healthy and cancerous tissue. It was too much for me to comprehend. At this point I am scared to death thinking cancer may take my life. All I wanted to do was save my daughters. If I was going to die, then I wanted to make sure that I did everything in my power to protect my girls, and other women so that they would not have to endure what I was about to.”

According www.komen.org breast cancer is one of the most common female cancers. This year, Nearly 200,000 women, in the United States, will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer and the disease will kill nearly 40,000 women.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, states cancer overall is the second leading cause of death in the United States.

“Due to progress in research, medical technology, and advances in care, cancer is becoming more about surviving than about death,” said Sue Anne Gilroy, vice president of development and executive director of the St. Vincent Foundation. “Cancer is a very Above: Traci Runge with daughters Hannah and Allie during her treatment..

diagnosis but miracles happen every day, and the journey becomes one of hope.”

Hope, strength, courage and support are keys to navigating successfully through complex cancer treatments, while contributions to pay for pivotal care services and ground-breaking research projects are vital to unlocking the mystery of cancer.

Dianne and L.H. Bayley, longtime supporters of the St. Vincent Foundation, were instrumental in raising millions of dollars to build St. Vincent Cancer Center and Hospice. “For nearly 15 years we ran fundraising campaigns never thinking we might one day need the same facilities we worked to build,” said Dianne. “But nine years ago when our daughter Chris was diagnosed with cancer, this center became even more significant in our lives.”

Chris, who has an identical twin sister, passed away in May of 2009 after a seven-year battle with thymoma, a rare malignant tumor. But, her memory lives on through her family, her husband and two boys, and her parents who continue their fight against cancer by chairing Key to the Cure. For the fifth year, Saks Fifth Avenue has partnered with the St. Vincent Foundation hosting a gala to support St. Vincent Cancer Care programs, research and technology.

To donate tissue individuals must: • Be female 18 years or older • Have the ability to understand and the willingness to sign an informed consent • Be willing to give a few hours of their time to complete a questionnaire and a breast biopsy • Not be allergic to local anesthetics (numbing medicine) • Not be receiving a therapeutic blood thinner (not including aspirin.)

• Not have breast implants or have had a breast reduction

“I’m not bitter about losing my daughter, but I miss her and I think the best therapy is to do something for someone else,” said Dianne. Chris introduced her mom to swimming, gently coaxing her out of her panic and into Sue Anne Gilroy (left) the pool three times a week. At at the age of 69, Dianne is standing next to competed in the National Senior Olympic Games. “I felt Kyle DeFur, President such a sense of accomplishment, but I haven’t been back St.Vincent Indianapolis in the pool since Chris passed away,” said Dianne. “I’m Hospital, and his wife, Dana DeFur. afraid I’d keep looking for her in the lane next to me.”

Traci’s family joined her to donate breast tissue last month.

Now, she and L.H., like Traci, are driven to do whatever they can to help others navigate their journey with cancer, a disease that shoves lives drastically off course every day.

Unselfish and determined, they commit to helping others, longing to see those afflicted wind their way through multiple treatments toward survivorship, and praying, that through their efforts, living with and beyond cancer might be a little easier.

“My illness has been the hardest thing to go through, but it has been full of blessings. Friends, neighbors, and my daughters’ classmates’ parents have made meals, cleaned my home, taken my daughters to practices and games, and prayed for my family. We are very fortunate to live in such a caring community,” said Traci. “Now it’s my turn to give to others!!! And, she’s spreading her spirit of giving to other family members.”

The last weekend in September, Traci’s mother, sister, cousin and great aunt all donated specimens during a tissue collection drive.

“Since I had no family history of breast cancer, it was important for my family to help,” said Traci. “By donating their tissue, researchers can now compare my relatives’ samples to mine, and have a better understanding as to why I got cancer and what changed in my tissue.”

Cancer does not discriminate, affecting all types of people and the somber diagnosis involves the entire family. Celebrating their 19th wedding anniversary this month, Traci appreciates her husband Dan Runge. “He was very supportive throughout it all and continues to be with my role in the Super Cure.” As the inspiration behind the partnership between the Super Bowl Host Committee and Komen Tissue Bank, Traci is the spokeswoman promoting the goal to use the Super 22

Bowl’s global stage to raise money to boost the tissue bank’s capacity and increase the number of donors from diverse populations to better balance the inventory of tissue samples for researchers.

“I am enjoying the things that I once thought were hectic.

Cheer practice, tumbling practice, gymnastics, ball games and the comings and goings of three very active girls are now blessings, and I will never take it for granted because I know how close I came to losing it all.”

Traci, who had a double mastectomy, openly shares her story and with a slight victory smile announces she is in remission. Soon, she will be undergoing reconstructive surgery. On November 5th, the tissue bank will hold a collection drive at Indiana University where her daughter is a freshman. “When my oldest daughter Hannah donates her tissue in November, they will have 4 generations. What a gift to science!”

ASG: Delivering Dealership Quality Without The Fancy Price

By Janet C. Striebel

three-year or 36,000 mile warranty,” says Douglas. “We feel that when we repair your vehicle, the parts and work should hold up as well as when your car was new.”

Automotive Service Group offers exceptional quality that you would expect to receive at a reputable car dealer, as it was strategically designed to give you all the amenities of a dealer, but at price points dramatically less than your local car dealer’s service center.

“You can expect up to 30% off dealership prices,” says Craig Douglas, owner of Automotive Service Group (ASG).

“In addition to the savings, we offer many communication comforts that the dealers just don’t have. We have invested in technology that allows you to book your appointment online through our Facebook page and website, and receive a text reminder when your car is ready for pick up. You can even talk with our friendly technicians about your service so you understand what is going into the work on your car.”

Furthermore, ASG is on the cutting edge of technology.

Douglas explains, “Everyone has their world on their phone.

We’re trying to make it easier for customers to maintain their cars by scheduling appointments online and receiving communication of their car’s progress/service appointments by texts.”

Here are some of the special advantages you will find at ASG: • Warranty for all service (3 years or 36,000 miles) • Ease of scheduling appointments online • Service reminders/service updates via email and/or text messages • Convenience of Saturday service from 8am to 3pm • Saturday Price Special – 10% off all scheduled maintenance performed on Saturday

The address for ASG is easy to memorize since the street name features an American automotive icon, the Thunderbird. ASG is located at 5841 Thunderbird Road (Suite 3) near the intersection of Pendleton Pike and Sunnyside Road.

• Servicing all makes and models • Same software and updates for equipment programming capabilities as dealers (on 12 different makes of cars) • Abundant coupons/website specials through the U.S. Mail, online, email/text and Facebook • Price Guarantee – Bring in any dealer estimate and ASG will beat their price by at least 20% • Extended warranties are honored • Family-owned with friendly, honest staff who recognizes you by name instead of by number • Spacious waiting room with free wireless internet, computer work station, and complimentary beverages • Free shuttle service while your car is being serviced Simply put, Craig Douglas represents a risk-taking car enthusiast who is passionate about buying, building, modernizing, collecting and even racing cars. Douglas laughs as he says, “I love cars. I’m like the kid that never grew up. People collect dolls, baseball cards… but I collect cars.” He rebuilt his first engine at 13 years old.

That was only the beginning of his engine building success.

He also built all of the engines in the championship winning cars that he raced as well as several of those of his fellow co-racers.

“My dad’s custom ‘54 Ford is in my shop right now,” boasts Douglas, who loves to modernize any chance he can get. “My dad brought it in for a new gas gauge but we are redoing the dashboard and installing a touch screen flip-out navigation DVD player that plays iPod and videos.”

Douglas bought his first car, a ’67 Charger, at the age of fifteen. He raced it and won several championships. After owning it for 23 years, he sold it to someone in Hawaii.

Later, his fateful wheel would steer him in a different direction.

One day, he got a phone call from a man named Jimmy Ray who was looking for someone to race his car because he had been terribly hurt in a motorcycle accident, leaving him a paraplegic. As a result, Douglas became half owner of a ’67 Camaro with Ray, completely transforming the car within a five-year period getting it to the top of its class, all the while, racing it in Ohio, Michigan, Georgia, Tennessee, Illinois, Kentucky, Orlando, and Indy. Douglas recalls the coincidence of how he and Ray both owned their first cars at fifteen, and both raced cars and motorcycles in drag races.

“I always try to be the best that I can,” says Douglas, who once raced a NASCAR in the “Richard Petty Experience” at the Indy 500 track, and got the fastest time of the day. He has also raced a NASCAR truck at the Indy Raceway Park. He admits, “I prefer drag racing as I don’t like going in a circle.” But he is very competitive, even when he goes go-karting with his kids.

Ironically, in 2008, Douglas was also involved in a motorcycle accident. He was badly hurt with many broken parts such as ten broken ribs, four vertebrae, a collarbone, a shoulder and a punctured lung. Although he owns a 2009 Challenger SRT-8 and 2010 Camaro SS and has raced them, he has not raced in a head-up series since his accident, yet remains open minded to the idea again someday.

Douglas lives in Greenfield with his wife, Jenn, and four children: Kyle (14), Korah (12), Emma (12) and Chase (10). He invites you to come by ASG, say “hello,” and take advantage of receiving dealership quality service at much lower prices.

“Having parties at home, with family and friends gathering together to celebrate, has become more popular again,” says Amanda Henson, Best Fun, Inc. “But it can also be lots of pressure. Having someone at the party to entertain the kids, and even adults, is a good idea as it takes that pressure off and allows everyone to have fun.”

Have a Back Up Plan. If your party is going to be outdoors, make sure you have an alternative date in mind or a location available should the weather not cooperate.

By Michelle Freed

It used to be that a simple, homemade birthday cake and a few token streamers constituted a successful kid’s birthday party. Throw in a hand full of friends and a donkey without a tail, and you were done.

Today? Not so much. Birthday parties for children have been elevated to an entirely different level, with hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars being spent to celebrate this annual event. What’s a parent to do?

“Plan ahead,” says Heather Lapham Kuhn, Events Concierge at L’Evento Boutique. “The biggest reason people overspend on any celebration is last-minute planning. By giving yourself plenty of time to make smart choices and seek out bargains, you’ll save a bunch of money.”

Here are some other no-nonsense tips: Be Yourself. Don’t get sucked in to a keep-up-withthe-Joneses scenario. Stick to your guns when it comes to the budget, guest list and location. If you’re not the do-ityourself kind of person, there are plenty of options in the Indianapolis area that will bring the party to your home, or will host your special event at an offsite location.

Coyote Chris, of Silly Safaris, explains the characteristics of hedge hogs to birthday boy and Carmel resident Will Keen.

Combine Celebrations. Many party vendors and businesses offer better deals for larger guest lists.

Consider holding one big bash on a neutral date for two or more children at the same time.

Give Back. Fishers residents Lori and Matt Trulock started a family tradition with Camden, their son, on his very first birthday party held last month. In lieu of gifts, they asked each guest to bring items found on the Hamilton County Humane Society’s Wish List.

“We actually collected a truck load full of donations, and we took Camden with us to deliver them,” Lori says.

“He won’t remember it now, but he will understand it as he gets older, as we’re going to do the same thing each year.”

Be Creative. Pop culture, television shows, books and trends are always a good place to start for inspiration.

Here are just a few examples of clever party ideas: • Letterboxing – Combine this popular activity with a round of pizzas at home and a gift bag filled with stamps, pens and a notebook. Check out letterboxing. org for inspiration.

• Toddlers & Tiaras – One local group of tweens gathered for a slumber party and an all-out spoof on this television series. While poking fun at kid pageants, guests donned outlandish hairstyles and exaggerated make-up while competing for titles like Worst Costume and Funniest Routine.

• 39 Clues – This popular book series lends itself to scavenger hunts, endless activities and exotic locales.

Carmel resident Deana Keen, who chose this theme for one of her son’s birthday parties, said it was a hit.

“It was a blast watching the kids eat Ramen noodles

9/27/11 8:03 PM

from www.wzpl.com with chopsticks, wrapping toilet paper around themselves to look like mummies, and eating Vienna sausages in ‘Austria,’” she said.

• Mall Time – Instead of spending hundreds of dollars on decorations and food, one mom simply gave her daughter and each guest $20, drove them to a popular mall for a casual lunch, and then tagged along while they figured out how to spend it all.

Planning a party for your child can be daunting, but with a little forethought and a bit of imagination, they can also be unforgettable events, with memories to last a lifetime.

Former President George W. Bush Among First Guests at Lucas Oil Estate in Carmel

By Stephanie Carlson Curtis

focused on entertaining, business event and philanthropic causes as well as providing a home away from home for special guests.

Scrubbed, polished and stylishly decorated, the newly refurbished Lucas Oil Estate in Carmel welcomed its first guests in September, including the 43rd President of the United States, George W. Bush. The engagement, which was organized by the Young President’s Organization, drew 350 community and corporate leaders, as well as Mayor Greg Ballard, Mayor Jim Brainard and Governor Mitch Daniels.

Carmel-based designer, Linda Mordoh, owner of Savvy Decor, converted the 25,000 square-foot mansion from empty and desolate to warm and inviting and re-decorated the rustic 8,500 square-foot sports facility, an unattached structure housing a full size replica of Indiana University’s Assembly Hall basketball court.

“It was a historic event for our organization,” said Brian King, YPO education chair. “We were very honored to have the President and to see him as a candid man instead of a politician.”

Carmel-based designer, Linda Mordoh, owner of Savvy Decor, converted the 25,000 square-foot mansion from empty and desolate to warm and inviting.

Hosts Forrest and Charlotte Lucas generously opened their home and allowed attendees to tour the grounds. According to Lucas, they do not plan to live in the home, but are

“The original structure, decorative touches and the history of the home will remain intact,” said Mordoh. Lifelike murals depicting renaissance scenes greet visitors in the entry while cherubs, angels and a soldier likeness of the original owner stares down from the high rounded ceiling. Decorative wood paneling, intricate trim inlaid with 14-karat gold, elaborate wallpaper and kitchen details will be enhanced by comfortable furnishings some of which are from local companies like TLS, in Portland, Indiana.

Bush talked about what it’s like to make world history sharing stories from his memoir, Decisions Points. According to attendees, Bush joked with his former Harvard classmate and Indianapolis businessman, Al Hubbard, complimenting Hubbard, who was economic advisor in his administration, and Governor Mitch Daniels, who was his budget director, Facebook.com/GarrisonLawFirm Dave@garrisonlegal.com David@garrisonlegal.com for their service.
