Economic forecast sunnier for 2015 1h 0SP\ 0PbT] “ adam@youarecurrent.com

Last January, economist Michael J. Hicks journeyed through a near-blizzard to give his annual economic forecast speech to the Carmel Chamber of Commerce. GOVERNMENT This year, the roads are a lot smoother. “The forecast for both weather and economy are getting better,� he said. “When I was here last year, the economy was in a free fall. Maybe, it was because it was negative 17 outside, but there was also still uncertainty regarding health care costs.� Hicks, a professor at Ball State University, spoke at the chamber’s January luncheon, predicting good news for Indiana’s economy. Hamilton County should look even better than most parts of the state. He forecasts that Indiana’s gross domestic product and job growth will be higher than it was in 2014. He thinks that Indiana’s GDP will increase more than half a percent better than the nation in 2015. He puts national GDP growth at 2.7 to 2.9 percent with Indiana’s GDP growing around 3.3 to 3.4 percent. Hicks predicts that job growth will increase next year and the unemployment rate will decline to 5.7 percent by the end of 2015. The bad news is that Indiana’s wages won’t rise as fast as some other places and the income gap between Indiana and other states will lessen. Hicks mentioned that low gas prices around $2 a gallon should continue which will mean reduced costs for companies and more money in consumers’ pockets. In Hamilton County, Hicks puts population growth at 2 percent with wealth growth at 5 percent, meaning that from when kids are born to when they graduate college their standard of living will have doubled. He said the continued urbanization of Hamilton County is great for its economy. “This remains a popular place to be some sort of headquarters activity,� he said. “So the structure of this economy will resemble more the rapid growth we see in urban areas nationally. Rural places aren’t growing as well.� He said Indiana will continue to remain strong when it comes to manufacturing products, but unfortunately Indiana’s efficient production might mean fewer employees are needed. Other local professors had different views on Indiana’s economy, but agreed that it looked strong.

A panel of economists from Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business agreed that the economy should finally break out of its rut, with GDP growing 3 percent nationally in 2015, but Indiana trailing shortly behind. “Indiana’s GDP grew more quickly than the U.S. in 2010, about twice as fast as the nation,� said Timothy Slaper, research director of the Indiana Business Research Center in the Kelley School. “In the three following years, Indiana’s economic output growth rate was a tad behind the U.S., and 2014 is expected to close the year at just a fraction off the national rate. This trend – being just a half step behind the national average growth rate – is forecasted to continue through 2017.� Kyle Anderson, clinical assistant business economics professor at IU, is more optimistic than Hicks when it comes to wage growth in Central Indiana. “For the first time in years, employees will have more leverage and employers will need to give wage increases to keep valuable employee,� he said. Tim Monger, president of the Hamilton County Economic Development Corporation, said he was encouraged by Hicks’ remarks. “I think the key is isolating it down to this particular region,� he said. “I think Hamilton County will continue to see considerable growth.�

ON THE WEB DVD review “The Boxtrolls� was easily columnist Chris Lloyd’s favorite animated film of last year – partly because the stopmotion gem is so visually alive and imaginative, but also because there really wasn’t much in the way of competition. To read more, visit currentnightandday.com

Clerk-Treasurer Diana Cordray recently received a visit from the Carmel Clay Historical Society. HISTORY New Executive Director Whitney Dennis, who was hired in October, was curious to see some of the historic documents the city kept, such as old ordinances. To her surprise, not only did Cordray store all of the documents in acid-free paper, but her staff had already scanned every document into a computer. These historic items can now be viewed by anyone using lazer fische, a document-sharing service accessible through the city’s Web site. History buffs can go all the way back to the 1800s and peruse old hand-written resolutions and more. “I don’t know if they knew how much I valued history,� Cordray said. “It’s very important to me which is why I wanted to preserve all of these documents to make them available to the public.� When Cordray was elected in 1995 and took office in 1996, she said she discovered a warehouse full of files. Some were recent and some were very old. She said the aged documents would have been at risk of degrading since they weren’t stored using acid-free paper. In 2000, Cordray began using the lazer fische software to catalogue all of the city’s files online. The idea was to help inter-department commu-

nication and provide transparency for voters. In some cases, it would remove the need for filing Freedom of Information Act requests to obtain certain documents. But Cordray thought the site could couldn’t just be used going forward – but backward as well. It took about a year and a half, but her staff scanned in all of the historic documents they have in their possession. More than a decade later, Cordray said most people still don’t realize this resource is available. She said it’s fun to look back at how much the city has changed. The population has grown from 500 people in 1900 to 1,442 people in 1960 to more than 85,000 people in 2013. The area was mostly rural. Cordray said she’s seen many old documents dealing with issues such as chickens in people’s yards.

Who was Jerry York?

Commentary by Fred Swift

Jerry York was a fighter for Carmel. His leadership changed the face of Carmel by setting off a chain of events that BACK IN THE DAY took the community, functioning as a small town in the 1960s, to its move to city status which we have today. Jerry created an organization known as the Carmel Clay Concerned Citizens Committee or 5Cs. In the late 1960s into the early 70s the organization opposed and ultimately refined a community master plan for establishing prescribed areas of the town for business development, recreational uses and residential zoning. But it was in 1971 that the 5Cs endorsed a slate of candidates for the Town Board of Trustees that really brought change. The candidates were elected and set off on plans for public utility expansion, establishing of a business park and an aggressive annexation policy. Within four years with the board’s encouragement, voters determined that Carmel should become a city. Jerry, who never ran for office himself, continued to be a citizen watchdog. He supported changes he thought best for the community, and sometimes opposed policies he felt were not in the public interest. But, Jerry was into more than politics. Sports at all levels were his passion. He was a founding member and “mover� of the Carmel Dad’s Club.

He also originated a Carmel Classic Track and Field Championship event. Bruce Jenner, Jesse Owens and other national sports celebrities appeared at the Classic and attracted wide publicity and participation in the annual event. Jerry could be controversial and confrontational. He didn’t mind such labels, and always kept his eyes on his goals. He had been a wrestler in high school and college, this despite the fact he was physically handicapped. One leg was much shorter than the other due to an accident suffered in his youth. To read more about Jerry, vist currentincarmel. com Fred Swift is a former member of the Carmel City Council, a former newspaper editor and a 60-year resident of Carmel. He currently serves as a board member of the Carmel Clay Historical Society.

Wheels turn as the 19 riders at SUFFERdaiser aim to make the Guinness Book of World Records. The 19 rode for 11 hours, and afterward called the Guinness association to confirm their record.

Riders hit Guinness record

Last week, The Cycle Studio in Carmel hosted a SUFFERdraiser to raise money for a local organization, Tatum’s Bags of Fun. “We’re taking the “fun� out of fundraiser to raise money for Tatum’s Bags of Fun, a local charity that puts together backpacks full of games and activities for kids who are going through cancer treatment,� said owner of The Cycle Studio Travis Rassat. To raise the money, 19 riders rode for 11 hours as part of an initiative with The Sufferfest, which is a national indoor bike-riding challenge.

Jayson Parker, executive director of Tatum’s Bags of Fun, tatumsbagosoffun. org, and since 2008 every child in Indiana diagnosed with cancer receives a backpack full of games, toys worth $350.

Working her way back 7^f ?X[PcTb WT[_TS ^]T f^\P] [TPa] c^ [XeT PVPX] 1h <PaZ 0\Qa^VX “ mark@youarecurrent.com Jane Flanders has been dealing with cerebral palsy her entire life. However, following hip-replacement surgery and then suffering leg injuries in a car accident, the 56-year-old Flanders COVER STORY was severely depressed about her difficulty moving. “I was at the low of the low,� Flanders said. “I was about ready to give up because I was having so much difficulty that I was about ready to go to a wheelchair.� That changed when her brother, Scott, suggested she give Pilates a try because he had been doing it. Scott, chief executive officer of Playboy Enterprises, Inc., who lives in California, told her he would pay for her sessions. Pilates is a system of physical conditioning training with low-impact exercises and stretching on special equipment. “I had checked out a couple places and either they didn’t call me back or I had a bad feeling about one person I talked to,� said Flanders, a Westfield resident for six years who previously lived 15 years in Carmel. “They said we’ll get you in a class, and I knew I needed individual work.� After looking around, Flanders found the perfect fit with Carmel’s Reforming Indy Pilates and senior instructor Tod Baker. Flanders calls it a miracle she found Baker.

When Baker, a Carmel resident, learned he would have his first client with cerebral palsy, he did a great deal of online research and spoke with doctors and physical therapists he knew. “We kind of grew together,� Baker said. “She was new to this (Pilates). She had done a lot of physical therapy. With me, it was a whole new ballgame.� Flanders was thrilled that Baker took so much interest in learning about cerebral palsy to formulate a plan for her. “He has worked with people with multiple sclerosis and then he works with all kinds of athletes, men and women,� Flanders said. “He does the gamut.� Before her health setbacks, Flanders was used to being active despite her cerebral palsy. “I would snow ski with help,� Flanders said. “I taught my son how to play soccer and play hoops. I’ve always walked differently. I’m functioning but I want to keep functioning.� A dietician, Flanders said she hasn’t been able to work for a few years because her cerebral palsy advanced. “Some say I’m a miracle walking,� Flanders said. “There are lot of people with CP who are worse. I could be top heavy and go to a wheelchair. You think I want to be in a wheelchair? I

want to be dancing.� Flanders had hip replacement surgery in February. Then as she was recovering from that, she was in a car accident in late April. “I had my kneecap broken and it twisted my feet,� Flanders said. “I was so depressed. I’ve learned to walk at least four times in my life, but this time it has been very hard.� That changed after Flanders started at Reforming Indy in October. Baker said after a few sessions she started walking better. Proper stretching has been one key factor. “Tod knows every tiny muscle so he tries to work those muscles and tendons,� Flanders said. “Stretching is the No. 1 thing that helps me. It’s very hard to get a good stretch yourself.� Baker said her balance is much better. “She walks faster without the crutch,� Baker said. “She feels mentally better and physically better.� Baker works with Flanders on simple tasks like getting in and out of the car or getting up off the floor. Flanders has had at least four personal trainers in the past, but Pilates has been a better fit for cerebral palsy. “As people get older we have to think more about not falling and keeping our strength up,� Flanders said. “It’s given me strength and balance.� Her work with Baker is motivating, she said. “This (Pilates room) is no crying place,� Flanders said. “No being down on yourself. When I leave and I walk, my posture and everything is awesome.�

FROM THE BACKSHOP

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Where only true leaders are needed We’re sure you’ve heard the fallout about President Barack Obama’s no-show at the Paris anti-terrorism march, which drew “dozens of world leadersâ€? on Jan. 11. Quite frankly, we don’t understand what all the fuss is about. Everything we’ve read and heard about the incident emphasized how the event drew “world leaders,â€? several of which represent some of America’s closest allies, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, French President Francois Hollande, British Prime Minister David Cameron, Spanish Minister Mariana Rajoy and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, among others. In Obama’s defense, the key words are, as we see it,  â€œworld leaders,â€? and, as such, Obama simply doesn’t qualify. Therefore, we don’t see reason for the uproar regarding his absence. As the White House fumbled for a response to enquiring reporters, it cited security concerns as one reason behind his absence; however, it was comforting to know security standards were met when, on the day following the march, Jan. 12, the “leader of the free worldâ€? accepted a San Antonio Spurs jersey, when he honored the team’s 2014 NBA championship. Brave soul, he. “ “ “ College football crowned its first playoff champion last Monday, when Ohio State defeated Oregon in the inaugural game. On the non-football side of the equation, it was refreshing to see a Super Bowl-type atmosphere functioning not with corporate types in the stands and at the various related venues, but with true fans of the teams or college football in general. Bands, cheerleaders, stadium-wide chants ‌ it all made for a fine experience, when the opposite could have happened. “ “ “ An American Beauty: This one takes the rose. As one of us unwrapped his dry cleaning the other day and took out a shirt, the hanger was covered by paper on which was imprinted “Caution: Do Not Swallow.â€? That’s rich!

The elephant in the room

Commentary by Terry Anker

Can being polite ever be a bad thing? In the Victorian age, we were encumbered with a plethora of topics deemed “impolite� and to be avoided, especially in mixed company, at all costs. Money, sex, health, politics and religion all made the taboo list. And, in many Asian cultures, the interaction between a woman and her physician was greatly restricted, providing an ivory doll to which the stricken female was to demurely point to the general region of discomfort so that the attending doctor could plot a course of medical treatment. It would seem that death by embarrassment was a real possibility. How much more enlightened and insightful have we become? Our society will openly discuss all manner of Kardashian proclivity in prime time. The Family Guy reminds our youth from the time they jump off the bus until the wee hours of the morning that there is no taboo that should not be transgressed. One could certainly debate the merits of this kind of open discourse; but, it

is pointless to imagine that we’d ever return to an era where important, even life-endangering, matters are not openly discussed. Yet as our malls have become little more than stadiums for the Ultimate Gang Fighting Championships and innocent police officers are executed in some imagined noble quest of retaliation, why do we still blush if someone acknowledges that the culture of a community might be a consideration in the conversation about how to improve our social ailments? Anyone with an Internet connection and the inclination can review scores of videos of shopping center hoodlums terrorizing shopkeepers and customers alike. Shouldn’t we be talking about what we see? If there is an elephant in the room, does our shamed silence really help? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentincarmel. com.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

Our nation has all sorts of arcane, nonsensical laws on the books. Each week, we’ll share one with you. In Ohio, women are prohibited from wearing patent leather shoes in public.

I have found the best way to give advice to your children is to find out what they want and then advise them to do it.

News flash: If you dislike my column, DON’T READ IT! Seriously, no one is making you sit down with your cup of organic coffee and peruse my articles. Turn the page, avert your eyes, or simply toss the paper straight into recycling. But don’t e-mail to tell me I’m a terrible mother or that my husband Doo is an abusive spouse. Don’t send letters that ask how in the world my children will remain out of prison and/or fat camp or how I must find Jesus to save my soul from eternal damnation (a path I’m clearly on!) You can certainly keep on judging me and my choices; I’m just asking that you keep the mean stuff to yourself. I’m not exactly sure where the current string of personal criticism was spawned. I’ve kept my topics non-controversial and rather benign, and focused mostly on the antics of my four children and bald Sugar Daddy. Until last week, I’d had a fairly good run of little to no hate mail. Nevertheless, recent expressions of “distaste� dictate the need for the following reminders about my column. “ I’m a math teacher with neither a degree in English nor in journalism. I rely on my good wits, Spellcheck, and my amazing editors to keep me in the “language clear.� Occasionally I invent words or deliberately [meaning: on purpose] defy the laws of grammar. Basically, I write how I speak, which almost always includes nonsensical vocabulary and incomplete sentences. So there. “ Doo and I have been married for 18 years. We still laugh a lot, enjoy spending time together and periodically frustrate the bejeesus out of each other. I choose to share the aggravating moments because they’re far more interesting and entertaining. This should in no way imply that we’re headed for divorce. Trenton again, perhaps, but not divorce. “ I believe my children are healthy, happy and acceptably well-adjusted. True, they fight incessantly, have messy rooms, don’t make their school sports’ teams, sometimes eat PopTarts for dinner, are addicted to all forms of “electronical� devices, and occasionally get grounded for bad grades. I imagine they’re like most kids. I’m not ruling out future therapy or incarceration, I’m just saying they are normal. “ My writing motto is and always has been, “Keep it Real!� If you want to read about Stepford wives, look elsewhere. So let’s keep the meanness to yourselves, people! Peace out.

Whose line is it, anyway? Commentary by Dick Wolfsie What makes great one-liners? They are often wonderful insights, plays on words HUMOR or mis-directions in thinking. Below are just a few of my favorites that I collected during the year 2014. Some are far older than that, but they were new to me and made me smile. I hope they do the same for you. Think of it as a belated Christmas gift. Next week you have to read my jokes (Note: when I know whose line it is, I give proper credit. But using other people’s jokes is not unheard of. After all, that’s how I got this column written.) I told people I wanted to be a comic when I grew up. They laughed at me. They’re not laughing now. (Bob Monkhouse) My parents were here for a long visit. I took them to the airport today. The plane leaves next Thursday. (Margaret Smith) At the hotel, I asked for a wake-up call at 6:30 a.m. The phone rang and the clerk said, “You’re a loser, quit wasting your life.” (Demetri Martin) I was a ballerina but I quit when I injured a groin muscle. It wasn’t mine. (Rita Rudner) When people ask me how I am getting to the airport, I say, “Well, I’m flying to one of them. (Steven Wright) I asked my date what she wanted to drink. She said, “Oh, I guess I’ll have champagne.” I said, Guess again.” (Slappy White)

I used to pray every night for a new bike. Then I realized God doesn’t work that way. So I stole a bike and asked him to forgive me. (Emo Philips) I intend to live forever. So far so good. (Steven Wright) Why do they lock gas station bathrooms? Are they afraid someone will clean them? If I’m the best man at a wedding, why is she marrying him? (Seinfeld) I make the beds, do the dishes and the laundry. Six months later, I have to start all over again. (Joan Rivers) If it wasn’t for Venetian Blinds, it would be curtains for all of us. (Eric Morecambe) A woman with a clipboard stopped me in the street and asked if I I had a minute for cancer research. I said, “Sure, but we won’t get much done.” Guns don’t kill people, people kill people. And so do monkeys, if they have a gun. (Eddie Izzard) I have kleptomania. But when it gets bad, I take something for it. (Ken Dodd) I don’t care what the newspapers say about me, as long as they don’t tell the truth. (Katherine Hepburn)

Saluting our veterans with half-price tickets for a star spangled night of music, the Carmel Symphony Orchestra marches into the second MUSIC half of its 39th season hosting the “The Texas Tenorsâ€? performance at 8 p.m. Jan. 30 and 31, at the Palladium. Kicking off the New Year “The Texas Tenors,â€? a classically trained trio infused with country roots presented by Pedcor Companies, will be in Carmel. And according to Clint Reeves with the CSO they are the highestranking vocal group of all time on that and were once on the America’s Got Talent television show. “’The Texas Tenors’ routinely sell out performances all over the world,â€? Reeves stated. “These two concerts mark their Central Indiana debut and are not included on the subscription season. All veterans receive half off their individual ticket purchase.â€? David Bowden is the artistic director of the CSO and will be conducting this show and is excited about the show and other performances presented this season. Bowden “‘The Texas Tenors’ are nothing short of a cultural phenomenon." Bowden said. "They combine such a versatility of style, with warmth, charisma, stunning vocal artistry, a sense of playfulness and depth of feeling that makes them a hit with audiences everywhere they perform.â€? “The Carmel Symphony is enormously excited to be able to present them in a tribute to those who serve and have served.â€? To purchase tickets, call the CSO office at 844-9717.

EDITOR’S HIGHLIGHT

OTHER CSO PERFORMANCES “We are delighted to present such a variety of performers and musical styles,â€? said director David Bowden. “The significant partnerships with regional organizations and the flair and sparkle of world-class guest artists make this an extraordinary season of music from the heart and for the soul.â€? At select concerts, ticket-holders are invited to arrive early at 6:45 p.m. for Music Matters featuring David Bowden for a behindthe-scenes discussion of the music of the evening. “ In a special Valentine’s Day performance on Feb. 14, the CSO pays tribute to Marvin Hamlisch with Indiana University’s The Singing Hoosiers – along with pianist Fred Moyer, an audience favorite – in A Musical Valentine: Through the Eyes of Love. The program includes music from A Chorus Line, Ice Castles, Sophie’s Choice, The Way We Were, including the titles One, Nobody Does It Better and I Finally Found Someone. Moyer will play Addinsell’s Warsaw Concerto and The Entertainer from “The Sting.â€? “ Ellis Island: The Dream of America, presented March 14, is a sweeping multi-media work featuring actors and video projection. The work is a powerful testament to the experience of thousands of immigrants who entered America through that iconic portal – a reminder that, for so many who have come here, America has been a symbol of freedom and opportunity for a new life. Wasson’s American Fanfare and DvoĂĄk’s Cello Concerto round out this program. “ On April 11, the CSO will present the medalists of the pre-eminent International Violin Competition of Indianapolis in Gold-SilverBronze. Each winner will perform a solo work with the orchestra. The concert also features two Ravel pieces – Pavane for a Dead Princess and Daphnis and Chloe Suite No. 2 – as well as Kabalevsky’s Overture to Colas Breugnon. “ Family Fun! – the Carmel Symphony’s signature interactive family concert – returns on March 29. In this popular Sunday afternoon concert designed to delight and spark the imagination, the orchestra performs excerpts of the world’s great classics in “Greatest Hits for Kids.â€? Children of all ages are invited on stage to watch music being made, and afterwards are encouraged to try out the instruments they just heard at the Instrument Petting Zoo. The concert also features a performance by the winner of the Carmel Symphony’s 34th Annual Young Artist Competition.

Museum of Miniature Houses begins new series for artists By Mark Robinson “ a^QX]b^]/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ The executive director of the Museum of Miniature Houses is thinking bigger, with an upcoming weekly series of artistic encounters aiming to draw new visitors and new interest ART in the facility located in Carmel’s Arts & Design District. Elaine Mancini, the museum’s executive director since November, is leaning on her experience in marketing communications and tourism promotion to increase awareness, attendance and funding for the museum at 111 E. Main St. She has found that “once we get people into the museum, they love it.� It’s getting them to take that first look, which is the genesis of the encounters program. Artists from all areas – musicians, singers, songwriters, storytellers, oral historians and more – will take turns leading an encounter each Wednesday at 3:30 p.m. For the opening encounter on Jan. 28, Mancini has secured worldrenowned musician Csaba Erdelyi – the only person to win the prestigious Carl Flesch Violin Competition playing a viola and currently lead viola for the Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra. Other acts lined up include a group of soloists, a Carmel High School duo playing acoustic guitar and percussion and a singer performing Irish songs around St. Patrick’s Day. The second Wednesday of each month’s en-

counter will be geared toward children under 12. There will also be times when Mancini asks attendees to draw something in the museum that inspires them or write a story about a museum object or theme. “Most people are quite creative and imaginative when they are given the correct atmosphere to show that,� she said. Admission to the encounters is free (donations are appreciated) and guests are encouraged to check out the entire museum when they attend. Advance reservations for the encounters are appreciated so the museum has an idea what attendance will be. Anyone interested in performing at an encounter is encouraged to contact Mancini. For more information or to make reservations, call 575-9466 or visit www.museumofminiatures.org.

Burns Night supper will celebrate Scottish poet Robert Burns By Mark Ambrogi “ \PaZ/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Tina’s Traditional Old English Kitchen will be bringing a healthy helping of Scotland to Carmel this time. Burns Night suppers are a tradition in Scotland on the birthday of famous FOOD Scottish poet Robert Burns. The Carmel tea room restaurant, 30 N. Range Line Rd., will hold a dinner from 6 to 8 p.m. on Jan. 25. Tina Jesson, a Great Britain native, said she has hosted Burns Night suppers before in previous locations. “We specialize in British food so we thought Britishthemed literary events would Jesson give people an experience like no other —well not without hopping on a plane and visiting the UK,� she said. Jesson said it also gives her restaurant a chance to show the amazing array of foods offered in the British Isles. Jesson said while Great Britain natives come to her events “we find is that our American guests are very supportive of experiencing a slice of Britain here in the center

of Indiana.� Jesson said there are plans for bagpipers and Scottish dancers. Someone also will likely read passages from Burns’ famous work. Restaurant manager Claire Hollenbaugh, another native Brit, said they are seeking a person with a true Scottish accent to read his poem “Address to a Haggis.� Among Burns’ other famous poems is “Auld Lang Syne.� Hollenbaugh said it’s a Burns Night tradition to hang the Scottish flag. The five-course dinner (costs $45 including tax) includes: “ Scottish Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese “ Scotch Broth “ Haggis (ground lamb with oats special seasoning) with Neeps (turnips) and Tatties (mashed potatoes) “ Cranachan is a traditional Scottish dessert made from a mixture of whipped “ cream, honey and raspberries and oatmeal. “ Coffee and Scottish Shortbread (The link to purchase tickets for Burns Night supper can be found under events at tinastraditional.com).

Be aware of glaucoma dangers

Commentary by Dr. Tammy Wittmann

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that randomly steal your sight without warning and often without symptoms. In a healthy eye, there is a balVISION ance that is achieved between fluid produced in the eye and fluid leaving the eye. But with glaucoma, either too much fluid is produced or not enough leaves the eye. Either of these problems increases the pressure in your eyes. Continuous elevated pressure damages the optic nerve. It’s important to note that it is this damage that is glaucoma, not high pressure. About 30 percent of patients with glaucoma have what is considered normal pressure for the eyes. If left untreated, damage to the optic nerve can lead to vision loss and even blindness. Here is a true case in my practice. I saw a 72-yearold man who was a farmer. He had never had a comprehensive eye examination. His distance vision was always pretty good but he started wearing over the counter readers in his late 40’s. When he was 72 he realized the readers were no longer helping his vision so he came to see

me. Unfortunately he had end-stage glaucoma in both eyes and the optic nerve was irreversibly damaged. There were no prescription glasses that could help him see better. There were no treatments that could bring back his vision. The only thing we could do was to try to save his remaining vision, which by this time was like a very restricted tunnel. There are several treatment options available when glaucoma is caught soon enough. Your eye doctor may suggest eye drops, a laser procedure or a surgical procedure depending on the type and severity of your glaucoma. This is only one reason for a seemingly healthy person with 20/20 vision to get an annual comprehensive eye examination. Call your eye doctor and schedule yours today if you haven’t already. Dr. Tammy Wittmann, O.D., practices at Wittmann 20/20 Family Eye Center at 2792 E. 146th St., Carmel. For more information, visit www.wittmann2020.com or call 843-2020.

Natural cough remedy – Getting rid of a lingering cough can be difficult. But a recent study discovered an easy, natural solution that works far better than prescription cures. A remedy made from honey and coffee reduced cough frequency by 93 percent, compared with 20 percent for a steroid and almost no effect from a cough suppressant medication. Mix about five parts honey to one part instant coffee crystals. Drink one tablespoon of the mixture in about seven ounces of water every eight hours as needed.

A snack can save your marriage – Hunger causes people’s glucose levels to drop, so they have less energy and therefore less self-control when it comes to dealing with anger and aggression. Have a snack when you feel your mood dipping. A snack with protein and “slow carbs� - such as a handful of almonds and an apple - will help keep your blood sugar levels stable. Also, wait to discuss a sensitive topic until you are feeling full. Keeping an eye on how hungry you are can go a long way toward keeping your relationships healthy. Source: The Daily Burst. Prevent wandering – Many people with Alzheimer’s disease wander. As the weather becomes dangerously cold, here are some tips to keep them safe. “ Place nightlights throughout the home or facility. “ Install slide locks at the top or bottom of doors. “ Use childproof covers on doorknobs. “ Use monitoring devices that signal when a door is opened. “ Label doors with signs or symbols that explain the purpose of each room. “ Secure trigger items. Some people will not go out without a coat, hat, pocketbook, keys, wallet, etc. Making these items unavailable can prevent wandering. Source: Alzheimer's Association

Monon gets SilverSneakers

Monon Community Center director Kurtis Baumgartner had been wanting to add Healthways SiliverSneakers program and Prime Fitness programs to his facility for a long time. On Jan. 1, he got his SENIOR CITIZENS wish. The Healthways SilverSneakers Fitness program is an insurance benefit program through Medicare health plan (age 65 and over). The Monon Community Center is reimbursed through Healthways per each visit by the seniors. The Prime Fitness program is Healthways’ commercial well-being program. It is available to members of participating health plans. “We believe the MCC is one of if not the premier fitness service provider in the region,� Baumgartner said. “By adding the SilverSneakers and the Prime programs, we are encouraging those individuals that qualify to take control of their health by encouraging physical activity. It’s a new program for our facility but it’s something that has been around for two decades. We’ve been interested in getting the Healthway programs going at our facility for awhile.� Baumgartner said Healthways has to select the facilities for participation. “When we began discussing this with them a few months ago, it was something we were really intrigued by,� Baumgartner said. “So far enrollment has been really good. It gives our current senior members and those that weren’t a member before access to our facility at no cost to them, depending on if they qualify. It has been really popular. There are a lot of new people in the door that haven’t been to the MCC before. They seem to enjoy our amenities and what we have to offer here.� Baumgartner said the partnership enables the

Closet biz plans spring opening

RETAIL California Closets, a store specializing in crafting home storage solutions, will open in spring 2015 in space formerly occupied by Carmel Couture, according to Pedcor, the owner of the property. Charlie Meyer, president of California Closets of Indianapolis, said his company was attracted to this location in the Carmel Arts & Design District because of its close proximity to other like-minded businesses. The Indiana Design Center is just down the street and there are more than 30 home design related businesses nearby, which should make for easy shopping

for would-be redecorators. Most people would assume that Carmel residents all have giant closets with lots of storage space, but Meyer said that new condos and empty nester homes mean that some Carmel residents might need help to maximize their space and organize their lives. “California Closets is a perfect fit for Carmel, a city that continues to attract new residents to a variety of diverse housing opportunities that extend beyond traditional four-bedroom homes,� Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said in a statement. “Carmel’s growing City Center and Midtown developments, where mixed-use and higher density developments are under construction, provides many opportunities for a company that helps consumers think creatively about their space.�

Two like-minded businesses have opened at each floor of the former Shiraz wine bar space in the Carmel Arts & Design District. RETAIL Iviva, a girls’ athletic clothing store, opened at the end of last year and Balance Yoga and Fitness opened this month on the second floor. Iviva is a company owned by Lululemon, one of the popular brands that combines fitness, fashion and function. The store at 404 W. Main St. sells active wear for girls ages 4 to 14. “We love being close to the Monon and all of the activity on Main Street,� store manager Erica Peregine said. “It gives it that boutique feel compared to other areas.� Peregrine said the clothes are meant to be durable and comfortable when you exercise, but also look fashionable enough that you don’t mind wearing them all the time. “I’d say about half are athletes and half are girls who want something to look cute at school,� she said. Just above Iviva, owners Will Baker and Heather T. Leo have opened their yoga studio, which is a second location of the HTL Yoga studio at Clay Terrace.

It’s one of the more unique spaces to practice yoga. Walking in, the atmosphere looks like someone’s living room with a small kitchen located in the corner. When the space was used for Shiraz, this second floor was reserved for private parties and events. The wine bar’s owner lived on the third floor, hence the homey feel. “It’s a nice central location,� Baker said. “It’s a beautiful place with great wood floors and natural lighting. We have it set up as an environment where it can be a community.� Baker and Leo have extensively redecorated the space but have made use of the existing fireplace – combined with sunlight from the large windows – to create a great way to practice hot yoga, which is a form of yoga where warm temperatures loosen the muscles and help participants sweat out toxins. One of the specialties for Balance by HTL is the indo-board balance classes. This is where participants utilize a balance board that looks like a see-saw to help strengthen joints and build strength and balance.

Marsala: the color of 2015

Commentary by Vicky Earley

Move over, radiant orchid. Make room for marsala, Pantone’s ‘Color of the Year’ for 2015. This rich, warm hue is a melDESIGN low and earthy blend of reds and browns. It is as robust as the wine that shares its name. Leatrice Eiseman, executive director at the Pantone Color Institute explained that Marsala 18-1438 “enriches our mind, body and soul, exuding confidence and stability. Marsala is a subtly seductive shade, one that draws us in to its embracing warmth.� The institute describes this carefully selected hue by describing it as a tasteful hue that embodies the satisfying richness of a fulfilling meal while its grounding red-brown roots emanate a sophisticated, natural earthiness. While the prediction of trends is part fashion, part sociology and part crystal ball, it is clear that the color of the year is not just a random selection made by a group looking for a pretty color. The institute notes, “to distill the prevailing mood into a single hue, the PCI team combs the world looking for future design and color influences, watching out for that one color seen as ascending and building in importance through all creative sectors. Influences can include the entertainment industry, upcoming films, art, emerging artists, travel destinations and socioeconomic conditions. Influences may also stem from technology, lifestyles and play styles, new

Despite contrary claims, St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome remains the world’s largest church, featuring the world’s tallest dome. Roman TRAVEL Catholics are more inspired by what they believe is its link to the bones of St. Peter, whom they consider their first pope. In 319, newly Christian Roman Emperor Constantine ordered a massive basilica built over a small shrine in a cemetery adjacent the Circus of Nero. Local Christians claimed the shrine marked the grave of Peter, the disciple of Jesus they believed was crucified in 64 A.D. near an obelisk, plundered from Egypt, near the center of the circus. Constantine’s church, named for Peter, became one of the most important churches in Christendom. In 1505, the original St. Peter’s had fallen into disrepair and Pope Julius II decided to build a new basilica on the site. Numerous designs, all including a dome surpassing Brunelleschi’s astounding dome on the Florence Cathedral, were proposed by a series of noted architects, including Rafael. For various reasons, those designs were never built. In 1547, a frustrated Pope Paul III conscripted Michelangelo, then 72, to take over

the project and he is credited with creating the overall plan for the current building. In 1586, with construction underway, the obelisk from the Circus of Nero was placed in front of the basilica as a tribute to Peter, with a cross placed atop an apex designed to point toward Egypt’s sun god. Completed in 1626, St. Peter’s Basilica encloses almost five acres. The signature dome rises 448 feet, 160 feet higher than the United States Capitol dome. Today, the body of Pope John XXIII is displayed behind glass on the main floor of St. Peter’s and that of Pope Saint John Paul II is entombed near Michelangelo’s famous pieta. They join at least 89 other popes buried in and under the church that Roman Catholics since Constantine have believed lies over the tomb of St. Peter. In the 1940s, archaeologists uncovered a handful of bones beneath St. Peter’s main altar later determined to belong to a man in his 60s. The faithful have no doubt the man’s name was Peter.

Rearranging a floor plan for better flow

EXISTING HOME: After fulfilling a dream of purchasing a river side home in the heart of downtown Noblesville, BLUEPRINT FOR the homeowners set IMPROVEMENT out to update their 1940’s home to accommodate their love of family, cooking and reading. “The house wasn’t set up for the way we live our daily lives. It lacked storage space for our book collection. The kitchen was so cramped that we couldn’t cook together as a couple and the dining room didn’t flow well for hosting our large family.” NEW FLOOR PLAN: The kitchen was gutted and a wall removed to create one large open space. The adjacent living room was transformed into the new dining room. To improve the natural flow, the existing doorway leading into the family room was enclosed and two new doorways were added on each end of the wall. The improved floor plan functions better and allows space to add built-in bookcases in the family room and the new dining room. KITCHEN DETAILS: Maple cabinetry in an “Arctic” finish fills the enlarged kitchen with abundant storage space. The multi-purpose island includes integrated shelving for cookbooks and seating space for three teenagers. The decorative exhaust hood cabinetry adds dimension while the wall chase and niche covered in “Red-

READING NOOK: “We wanted to preserve the historical charm in the house so we decided to keep the breakfast nook and convert it into a quiet area for morning coffee and reading.” The existing wallpaper was removed and the room was painted yellow to brighten the space. The existing corner hutches were painted white with bold accent colors.
