OUR VIEWS

317.489.4444 Managing Editor – Jordan Fischer jordan@youarecurrent.com / 489.4444 Associate Editor – Terry Anker terry@currentincarmel.com Art Director – Zachary Ross zross@ss-times.com / 787-3291 Associate Artist – Haley Henderson haley@currentincarmel.com / 787.3291 Cartoonist – Tim Campbell tim@currentincarmel.com

It is our position that the people of Hamilton County must continue to support organizations such as the Entrepreneurship Advancement Center (EAC). EAC’s sole goal is to promote local entrepreneurship and provide the resources to increase the success rate of neophyte entrepreneurs. The EAC offers a variety of programs for those looking to create their own business. First, there is the wildly popular student business competition, which has helped produce four student-run businesses since 2009. There is also the Community Business Plan Competition, which was created in 2010 and gives the winner consulting advice from local business leaders. Other programs include networking events as well as educational happenings. We believe institutions like the EAC are what make Hamilton County one of the most successful counties in the United States. The EAC’s ability to spark the entrepreneurial interest in high school students and provide resources and consultation from experienced business leaders for all is a major asset that everyone should take advantage of. For more information on the Entrepreneurship Advancement Center, go to http://goentrepreneurs.org.

Pooch perks

It is our position that dogs – man’s best friends – are deserving of a few perks in life, such as the opportunity to exercise and socialize in the safe confounds of a fenced-in dog park. Commonly referred to as “bark parks,” these parks provide ample space for dogs to run freely without a leash in the company of fellow canine companions. Some parks even provide ponds for swimming and retrieving. Pierson Bark Park in Fishers is one such park. There is also a dog park in Westfield, and the idea is being explored in Carmel. Safeguards such as requiring the pet’s vaccination records and adhering to a strict set of behavioral and clean-up rules help ensure a safe environment for play. Paid memberships also help offset the cost of operation. Bark parks are especially beneficial for dogs with little land to run or dogs that are just plain lonely. They also serve as great bonding grounds for pet owners. Most humans are happier and healthier when they exercise regularly and have a large social circle. The same holds true for dogs. They supply us with so much joy and unconditional love; isn’t it only right to return the favor?

Thank you! Center resumes news flow

Sometimes old wounds linger on

Brian Kelly & Steve Greenberg against this, but since blood is thicker than water – or votes and unyielding scrutiny – we begrudgingly understand his answer. Still, we believed (and still do) that Our Man Mitch would have seriously ratcheted up the discourse along the way to Election Day. We believed (and still do) that Daniels would have had something of a forceful, changing effect on President Barack Obama – especially on the fiscal conservancy front. Look at how Daniels made Indiana financially whole again in less than two terms. We’re not suggesting he could accomplish that with our national finances, but he would have made a massive dent in the problem. We’re all poorer for his decision, but that’s life.

Over stuffed

Dear Terry Anker, I’m reading your recent column in Current in Carmel about the friendship of your son and a Japanese boy of same age. The question was asked about whether their grandfathers could have been friends. I served 44 months in SWPA (January 1942 through October 1945) – about 2/3 in actual combat. No way could we have been friends with the Japanese, nor could they have been friends with us. We would have been trying to kill each other, or if we did come into contact, one would have been a prisoner or wounded with the other being a guard or medical person. Much later, we could, most of us, sit down at the same table and talk over what we had been doing and where. Even if we found out we were

Century Drive

Where we criticize, we also look for opportunities to commend, and this is one such example. Today, we’d like to offer a sincere note of appreciation to the leadership of The Center for the Performing Arts for resuming the flow of news releases to Current. That type of cooperation tells us that the greater Hamilton County community is important to the center, and we believe that is as it should be. So again, thanks, folks. Elsewhere in this issue and online, you will find The Palladium’s summer schedule. There are some American musical institutions, Emmylou Harris to name one, which will make this a memorable summer at The Palladium, the center’s gem. What appears to be an aggressive pursuit of touring acts is to be applauded. As we always do, we urge you to call the Center’s box office at 843.3800 or visit tickets@thecenterfortheperformingarts. org. to pack the house. Turn on the lights and turn up the volume! ••• And so Gov. Mitch Daniels, who we believed to be darned near a shoo-in for the Republican nomination for the 2012 presidential election, has opted out of running, allowing his family’s feelings to play a determining role in the decision. We hoped

Lions honor dedicated residents COMMENTARY By Jeff Worrell For the Carmel Lions Club, the celebration continues as they commemorate the 75th year of their existence. As part of the recent gala marking the anniversary, they handed out awards to deserving and dedicated Carmel residents whom give their time as Lions. Robert Fearrin received the Melvin Jones Fellowship which is named in honor of the founder of Lions Club International. It is the highest honor the association can bestow upon an individual. Fearrin has devoted many thousands of hours of service over many, many years to our community through the Carmel Lions Club. He founded a business in Carmel that lasts to this day and he was an original founder of the Carmel Clay Chamber of Commerce. He served as president of the Chamber and was named Small Businessman of the Year by the group. He first joined the Carmel Lions Club in 1958 and served as president of the club in 1962-63. Jo Craigmyle was the second recipient of the Melvin Jones Fellowship. She has worked tirelessly at Carmel Lions Club events and behind the scenes for 21 years. She also claims the role of “shadow secretary” for the Carmel Lions Club performing bookkeeping duties to support her Lion husband Bob Craigmyle. The International President’s Letter of Commendation is a special recognition bestowed on

a Lion for service to the association. Lions Club International President Sid L. Scruggs III read the Letter of Commendation which is the fourth highest award that the association can present to an individual. Alice Gossett and Jane Flower were both recipients of the honor for their dedication to the club’s annual fundraisers. The famous Carmel Lions Club Cookbook helped raise over $5000 for the charity SightFirstII. The last award recognizes the life-long partnership of two people in service through Lionism since 1963. Joe Marcheggiani became a Lion in 1963 in West Haven, Connecticut and transferred to the Carmel Club in 1977. Joe and Connie Marcheggiani worked side-by-side and in 1995 Connie became a Lion and a member of the Carmel Lions Club. In addition to their Lions activities and his career at the IRS and at Butler University, they raised four children along the way. Their lifelong partnership in Lionism endured for 48 wonderful and fulfilling years. The Life Achievement Award was given with great love and respect during a standing ovation to Joe Marcheggiani and posthumously to his wife, Connie. Jeff Worrell is a local businessman. He recognizes volunteers on “Connecting with Carmel” on cable channel 16. Contact him at jworrell@advantagemedical.com

Is divorce sometimes the best thing for your kids? COMMENTARY By Danielle Wilson Do you ever think about what would happen if you and your spouse divorced? It’s been on my mind lately, not because my husband and I are having problems, but because we’ve been hanging out recently with either friends who are divorced or those who may be heading in that direction. I think it’s only natural to wonder how you would handle serious marital issues if they arose and what decisions you would make. For example, Doo asked me the other day what I would do if he ever had an affair. I’d like to think I could forgive him and give our marriage a second chance, because everyone deserves another shot, right? But honestly, I just don’t know how I would feel about it. “What if I cheated on you on several different occasions? What then?” Easy. I’d kick him out on his buttooski. How can you ever trust someone after repeated indiscretions? And how can you have a marriage if there is no trust? Of course, we have children. Four of them, and they are all at the age that they would be acutely aware if Daddy moved out. So I asked Doo, “If I screwed up, but you were never able to forgive me, would you still want to stay together for the kids?” This opened a whole ‘nother can of worms. Because whose happiness should come first? Ours? Theirs? Is it better to tough it out and stay in a miserable relationship so that your kids have a sense of family and se-

curity, even if that sense is based on a lie? Or would it be healthier to part ways amicably and hope to find love again with someone else? After all, children are incredibly perceptive. I once knew an 8-year old who was so stressed out by her parents’ constant fighting that she began pulling out her eyelashes. (They eventually got themselves and her into therapy, and everyone is much better now.)

Because whose happiness should come first? Ours? Theirs? Is it better to tough it out and stay in a miserable relationship so that your kids have a sense of family and security, even if that sense is based on a lie? Even when you think you are being discreet when you argue, kids can always tell when something’s up. So would it even be possible to fool your children into thinking everything was OK? Maybe, but I can’t imagine what that would cost you emotionally. And eventually, they will find out. What then?

Fall Session Begins August 1

Have you seen the movie “Couples Retreat”? One of the couples is just waiting until their teenage daughter goes off to college so that they can divorce. They literally spent 10 years of their lives hating each other but pretending they didn’t so that their daughter would grow up with a positive view of marriage. I’m honestly not sure I could be that unselfish. After all, sometimes marriages aren’t meant to last, for whatever reason. You were married too young, you have a major shift in ideologies, etc. And I guess, sometimes, you just fall out of love. Even if two people commit to counseling and serious work on their marriage, I truly believe some people are better off apart. At least then your kids could have the chance of being in two loving environments rather than one cold or fake one. I don’t know. It’s so easy for me to sit here and hypothesize, because it’s not my marriage on the brink. And it’s even easier to judge other people. I hope to God I never have to make a decision like that for real. Come to think of it, I’d better go find Doo and tell him how much I love him and need him. And that I’ll kill him if he ever put me in that situation. Peace out.

Palladium, CDB, restaurants make for a memorable time Editor’s note: The following column was to have run previously. As a result of a production error, it did not. We present it here in its entirety. COMMENTARY By Jason Peek On a Friday night in Carmel, who would have thought that a few good ol’ boys could come together and rock a luxurious music hall? I had not been to The Palladium by that point, and I didn’t think much about it because I’m not into “fancy stuff.” But April 29 not only was part of my wife Danyi’s birthday weekend, it was also the Charlie Daniels Band’s first time in our city and, believe me, I would not be stopped to check this out. I have listened to Daniels’ music since I was a young buck, and I lucked out and not only got tickets from my man, Paul O’Connor, and the Renaissance Hotel, I was also invited back stage to meet Charlie by Steven Libman, the president and CEO of The Center for the Performing Arts, and John Hughey, its public relations manager. I have never seen such a beautiful music hall. We sat behind and above the stage, and the sound was still crisp and perfect. The thing that blew me away is that I have never seen such a well-dressed country music concert crowd and my blue jeans and Tapout MMA shirt were not

up to par. I love y’all in Carmel, but this was Charlie Daniels, not the Carmel Symphony Orchestra. Nonetheless, everyone was a smiling, rocking and having a good ol’ time.I didn’t get to interview Daniels then – that was my goal – yet, believe it or not ,when I told him I write for Current and wanted to pick his brain he flipped a piece of paper over and gave me his phone number to do a phone interview. Hopefully that will happen soon. I guess that Tapout shirt with the Confederate flag on the back touched his heart. It truly was a pleasure to sit and listen to the best damn fiddle player in the world blow the horse hairs right off his bow. Carmel continues to be on the rise, and I have been having a lot of good times enjoying what it offers. And to top this off, Danyil and I stayed at the Renaissance and were treated like royalty. And dinner at Kona Grill, where my man Desmond took care of us, was now two of the best meals I’ve ever had dining out. My only question is: When is Willie Nelson coming, because I’m ready to do it all again! Yeeeeeee hawwwwwwww!

How the Hamilton County Metropolitan Child Exploitation Task Force stands between your kids and online predators By Jordan Fischer Current in Carmel

What Can You Do To Minimize The Chances Of An On-line Exploiter Victimizing Your Child?

he face of child explotation may not have changed in the last two decades, but the advent of the Internet certainly has given predators a new level of access to their prey. That’s why the Hamilton County Metropolitan Child Exploitation Task Force was formed in 2007. The team is composed of detectives from the Carmel, Fishers and Noblesville police departments, as well as members of the Hamilton County Prosecutors Office.

• Communicate, and talk to your child about sexual victimization and potential on-line danger. • Spend time with your children on-line. Have them teach you about their favorite on-line destinations. • Keep the computer in a common room in the house, not in your child’s bedroom. • Utilize parental controls provided by your service provider and/or blocking software. • Always maintain access to your child’s on-line account and randomly check his/her e-mail. Be up front with your child about your access and reasons why.

The primary mission of the task force, according to FPD Cpt. Andy Dietz, is to identify, investigate, and prosecute those individuals who utilize computers, digital media and other electronic devices to prey on children for the purpose of sexual gratification or profit. Donning the mask

In order to find child predators and purveyors of child pornography, detectives pose as underage boys and girls in online chat rooms. At that point, according to FPD Sgt. Dave Kimm, they wait for the predators to come to them. “Oftentimes guys will go into a chat room like ‘Dads and Daughters,’ and in the course of the conversation they will divulge information on a link to where this sort of (pornographic) content is available,” Kimm said. Getting access to the larger, password protected sites, however, can be a more difficult process. “The guys that really hoard the mass amounts of child porn are hard to get to, just like drug kingpins,” Kimm said, “because the trust level has to be so high.”

Signs your child might be at risk online: • Your child spends large amounts of time online, especially at night. • Your child receives phone calls from men you don’t know, or is making calls, sometimes long distance, to numbers you don’t recognize. • Your child receives mail, gifts, or packages from someone you don’t know. • Your child turns the computer monitor off or quickly changes the screen on the monitor when you come into the room. • Your child becomes withdrawn from the family.

www.youarecurrent.com

How aware are you of what your child is doing online? In March of 2010, the task force arrested Samuel Hasler, 50, an Anderson, attorney, on charges of two counts of distributing child pornography, and one count of possessing child pornography. Through the investigation, it was determined that viewing child pornography had grown to become his main pastime. “They determined that he was spending a minimum of six hours a day looking at or trading child pornography,” Kimm said. And, Kimm said, Hasler was not an unusual case for the task force. “We’ve had more clergymen than anyone,” Kimm said, “but we’ve had police officers, attorneys, truck drivers, ex-military men… really all walks of life.” Still, Kimm said, there is a typical profile for child predators. “I don’t think we’ve ever arrested someone who wasn’t a white male, usually 30 or older,” Kimm said. “In fact, usually over 50.” Closing the net

Some investigations with particularly guarded predators can take weeks, Kimm said. Others are willing to meet up with detectives posing as underage children after only 30 minutes of conversation. “Sometimes we’ve only been talking to the guy for 30 minutes beforehand, and the guy was local and agreed to come up immediately,” Kimm said. The task force arrested a man in just such an scenario on April 11, after Greenwood resident Satnam Singh Thind allegedly

Current in Carmel

agreed to meet a detective posing as a 14-year-old girl for sex in Fishers. In 2008, the task force arrested a Carmel man, Andrew McGrath, on 24 counts of sexual exploitation of children, or producing child pornography, after an investigation determined he had produced images of minor females engaged in sexually explicit conduct. McGrath received 370 years in federal prison. “When I was a kid,” Kimm said, “if you were a pedophile, you would drive around and find a kid you liked, talk them for a while, learn their habits, then eventually abduct them. Now, you can just sit in the safety of your own home and browse to your heart’s content.” “The Internet is a pedophile’s dream,” he added. Keeping your children safe

“The hardest thing in Hamilton County is getting people aware of these types of crimes,” Kimm said. Beyond that, both Kimm and Dietz stressed that parental awareness is key. “Just for parents to be aware of what their kids are doing is huge,” Kimm said. “Oftentimes we get cell phones with hundreds of naked pictures of the owner of that cell phone. And once you send that picture out, it’s like a bullet. You never know where it’s going to go.” The task force offers an outreach program to public schools, churches, and any group that can muster an audience of at least 15 people to raise awareness about child predators. “The thing people don’t realize is, once those children are victimized, they’re victimized for life,” Kimm said. “They can never get the image of that abuse out of their head.” Information about registered sex offenders in your area is available online at www.icrimewatch.net.

At the time I did not reGary Sexton alize that he was Chairman of Carmelfest. In the course of conversation, he asked if I was interested in volunteering, I told him ‘well…maybe’, what Gary (Frey) heard was, ‘sure, anything I can do, just let me know’.

The Hamilton County CVB will manage many of the projects as part of its contract with the Hamilton County Visitor and Convention Commission, the governmentally appointed agency that oversees tourism operations in the county. Supported projects were vetted through the Destination: Hamilton County Grant Review Committee in January.Â The Bureau will work with local municipalities to refine the remaining projects. The Hamilton County Grant Review Committee approved the project concepts in January, with details to be determined. Projects may include up to $1 million in support for the Grand Park sports complex in Westfield; up to $1 million to support development of the Nickel Plate Arts Trail, including the purchase of two buildings in downtown Noblesville to house the NPAT headquarters and an arts and cultural center; up to $500,000 for an investment in Fishers to be determined later; up to $500,000 for enhancements to Hamilton Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Strawtown Koteewi Park; and, additional support for signage and enhancements in Carmel.

Organizations bring employers and veterans together COMMENTARY By Jerold RamosÂ As we approach Memorial Day and the Fourth of July, our countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collective consciousness turns to our brave military. As a U.S. Navy veteran and talent acquisition professional, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m proud to say I am committed to pursuing gainful employment of our countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military. I believe it is vitally important for all employers to think about the plight of military unemployment every day of the year, not just during patriotic holidays. Veterans and reservists bring highly desirable traits to the corporate workplace. Leadership, dedication, responsiveness and work ethic are the rule, not the exception, with military personnel. These individuals can also quickly adapt to changing situations, and are therefore able to learn a new culture or new tasks quickly. And what they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know, they are eager to learn â&#x20AC;&#x201C; making them receptive and ready hires in work environments that value ongoing learning and training. Veterans represent diversity and collaborative teamwork in action, having served with people from diverse economic, ethnic and geographic backgrounds as well as race, religion and gender. Even under dire stress, veterans complete assignments in a timely manner as they have labored under restrictive schedules and resources on the battlefields and at military installations where theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve served. Despite all of these marketable traits, the

unemployment rate for Gulf War-era II veterans is 11.5 percent, according to the latest findings from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. What can employers do to ensure they have access to highcaliber talent with military experience? And, how can veterans identify viable opportunities for employment? Many employers and veterans are not aware of the wide variety of non-profit organizations available that match veterans with companies seeking to fill positions. I invite employers nationwide to become true partners with these organizations to ensure their companies are maximizing their ability to recruit from this extremely qualified talent pool, and supporting those who have sacrificed so much to protect our freedom. Veterans can also take advantage of the services these organizations offer. These military organizations exist to help put our heroes to work, and they are mutually beneficial to employers and veterans. When heroes put these resources to work for them, the result is career opportunities and ongoing support. When employers engage in building a relationship with these resources, the result is a highly talented candidate pool. The men and women who have dedicated themselves to serving our country make an incredible contribution in the workplace. More Americans at work is good for our country. More military personnel at work is good for our veterans, and for businesses in all industries.

Recognized by industry experts as a leader, they offer employers access to resumes and job postings so that they can reach the military community. HireVeterans.com is a leader in online veteran and military recruiting and is also expanding in virtually every category of the veteran and military e-recruiting space. â&#x20AC;˘ Military.com offers free membership to connect service members, military families and veterans to all the benefits of the service â&#x20AC;&#x201C; government benefits, scholarships, discounts, lifelong friends, mentors, great stories of military life or mission and much more.

misuse it to attempt to paraphrase, changing every third word or so. Understand this: Paraphrasing is using your own words to express someone else’s thoughts. It’s not rearranging someone else’s idea every-third-word at a time. Just changing every third word and documenting the sentence(s) as a paraphrase is misuse of sources. In order to effectively paraphrase, there’s a handy little trick that works most of the time. Read the source, close the source, take a minute to think about it, and then write a few notes in your own words. Then reopen the source and be sure that you have, in fact, used your own words to express the idea. Easy peasy. Another method for avoiding plagiarism is to keep excellent notes and records of your research. If you know exactly where your information is from and which phrases, clauses, sentences and paragraphs are quotations and which are paraphrases, you’ll have a much lower chance of misusing your sources. Finally, remember that words and ideas are intellectual property. Just as it’s not acceptable to break into houses and steal flat-screen TVs, it’s not OK to use someone else’s writing and thoughts as if they were your own.

GRAMMAR GURU By Brandie Bohney Last week, I discussed the definition of plagiarism and the importance of respecting others’ intellectual property. This week, I’d like to share a few tips for avoiding plagiarism. First, I’d like to start by saying that in any academic endeavor, the student needs to be very familiar with the style of documentation his or her instructors wish to be used. There are many different style manuals for documentation, and sometimes those manuals have within them different ways of documenting sources (in-text documentation versus endnotes versus footnotes, for example). Whatever type of writing you are doing, be certain you know which style of documentation from which style manual you should be using. Next, let’s tackle the difference between quoting and paraphrasing. Quoting is, of course, when writers directly copy the words used by their sources. Quotations are set off by quotation marks (funny how that works, eh?). Paraphrasing is the act of putting the source’s ideas into one’s own words. Paraphrases do not require quotation marks, but they do require documentation. The general rule of thumb for quoting is any time you are using three words of consequence (in other words, three or more words you would not have constructed on your own), quotation marks are necessary. Some people will use the three-words rule and

Make the most of your money at the Civic Theatre COMMENTARY By Cheri Dick A frequent topic of conversation in the theater world is the high cost of tickets to shows on Broadway. Instead of paying Broadway prices, the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre invites you to sit back, relax and enjoy the show … right here in your own hometown. For the price of one good seat to a show at the Majestic on West 44th Street in New York City, you can subscribe to a whole season at Civic Theatre, which provides an artistic product that can compete with the finest theatres in the country. Think of it as a way to make your next “staycation” feel more like a real vacation. When you become a subscriber, you will see five high quality, professionally produced and directed shows and have plenty of reserve left for Civic’s personal concierge to make a preshow dinner reservation for you at any of the great restaurants in the Carmel area, such as the Renaissance Inn. This personal concierge service is the first of many ways Civic is saying “thank you” to all of its loyal subscribers. Of course, there are all the usual perks like ticket exchange privileges, priority seating, discounts on additional tickets and advance notices and invitations to special events. But in addition, as a subscriber, you will also receive some unexpected pleasures, such as guaranteed free covered parking for every show and a valuable 10 percent discount on fees for family members (children or adults) who enroll in Jr. Civic’s education program. Civic’s new home at the Center for the Performing Arts gives us the opportunity to significantly expand our educational programming by offering more classes, workshops, camps and performing opportunities to children and adults between the ages of 2 to 99 than ever before. And now, for the first time in our theater’s 97year history, we are offering to all of our subscribers a savings of 10 percent on enrollment fees! To subscribe to Civic’s exciting first season at the Tarkington, call our subscriber line at 923-4597. As you will soon see, you don’t have to travel all the way to New York City to experience five nights of great entertainment. Cheri Dick is the executive director of the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre. You can contact her via e-mail at cheri@civictheatre. org.

Cilantro Lime Tuna Steaks w/Honey Glaze Ingredients • 1/4 cup olive oil • 1/4 cup lime juice • 1/8 cup balsamic vinegar • 2 cloves garlic, minced • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard • 1 pinch chili flakes • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro • 1 pound sushi grade tuna fillets • 1/4 cup honey • 2 tablespoons olive oil • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro Directions 1. In a medium bowl, mix together 1/4 cup olive oil, lime juice, balsamic vinegar, garlic, mustard, chili flakes, and 1/4 cup cilantro. Add tuna fillets, and turn to coat evenly. Let marinate for two hours in the refrigerator. 2. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate. In a small bowl, mix together honey, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and 2 tablespoons cilantro; set aside. 3. When grill is hot, reduce heat to medium/low, and place tuna fillets on grate. Close lid, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes.

June 2 The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra: Brahm’s 1st Piano Concerto The Hilbert Circle Theatre 45 Monument Circle, Indianapolis June 2 through June 4 Tickets available by phone at 317-639-4300 or online at www.indianapolissymphony.org/. At the age of 24, when Brahms wrote his First Piano Concerto, the weight of history was upon his shoulders. A few years earlier Schumann declared him to be the next musical genius, destined to change music history. Shortly after that declaration, Brahms heard Beethoven’s Ninth for the first time and came away from it ready to write the next great symphony. But Brahms struggled and that symphony took decades to finish. Brahms instead completed his First Piano Concerto, which shows the influence of Beethoven’s Ninth.

DISPATCHES » Melt-proof makeup – Start by losing the layers. Sweltering weather means sweatier, oilier skin, which breaks down makeup. And the more layers you put on, the likelier they are to slip and slide. Who wants to slather on extra products anyway?

Otherwise, the follicles may still be open, and self-tanner can pool in them, creating tiny dark spots. Also, rubbing DHA on sensitized skin ups the odds of irritation. And slough off old skin first. DHA reacts with the proteins in the very outer layer of your skin. Any patches of old, dead skin will absorb more self-tanner, which can lead to spots and streaks. For an even start, dry-brush before your shower. Try EcoTools Bamboo Bristle Bath Brush ($6, drugstores). -www.goodhousekeeping.com

Putting scale and proportion in perspective COMMENTARY By Sue Faulstich To my delight, I received quite a few comments regarding a specific part of my last article. Two very important parts of any design project are scale and proportion. Whether it is the design of a pair of shoes, a powder bathroom or an entire office building, both scale and proportion are an integral part of the equation. Often thought of as being synonymous in terms of design, I treat each one differently. It is common to hear something described as having a small scale or a large scale. From furniture to fabric patterns, when thinking about the scale of any item, it is best to think about size. When designing a room, my consideration of scale starts with the size and shape of the area and continues through the size and shape of every finishing touch. With the square footage of new homes increasing rapidly, the challenge rises to present a design with the proper scale. When working with these new elevated ceiling heights, consider the heights of pieces such as tables and lamps and take care that these items, which can get lost in a large space, are properly scaled to the room in which they are placed. Do not be afraid to place a 9-foot-tall tree in a 14-foot-tall foyer. Anything less, in fact, would be out of scale.

Current in Carmel

Also on the designer’s mind is proportion. I mentioned before that proportion refers to how items in a room relate to one another. When picking things like furniture, window treatments, and accessories such as artwork, it is important that these items work visually as a team. Each team member is unique, but at the same time complements every other member. This fundamental principle can be used in every room, nook, and cranny of your home. Proper proportion will help all of the parts of a design project come together soundly. Understanding scale and proportion does take training and experience. Being able to determine what makes a room aesthetically pleasing to someone is as hard as figuring out which pair of shoes they will fall in love with on the next visit to the mall. However, you can be sure the designer of that perfect pair of slingbacks used the same design principles regarding scale and proportion that I used to complete my last project.

The truth behind ‘Lifestyle Lifts’ operation that is decades old and is practiced by most plastic surgeons. This ‘mini-facelift’ operation has now cloned many spinoffs including the Quicklift, Swiftlift and Weekend Lift to name just a few. Often touted as being innovative and original by the advertising surgeon, the names suggest that getting a fresh, younger look is really easy...or at least is quick for the surgeon to do. Like many things that are heavily marketed, the Lifestyle Lift has its share of proponents and critics. An internet search will quickly bare that out. As an operation, however, limited types of facelifts do have a valuable role in facial rejuvenation. Not every patient needs or wants a fuller or more complete type of facelift. Facelifting is not, nor should be, an operation that is performed the same on everyone. ‘Mini-facelifts’ are best reserved for patients with earlier signs of aging, not advanced problems such as turkey necks. A catchy name does not necessarily make the procedure novel or unique. Many plastic surgeons offer similar type facelift procedures that just don’t have a branded name, but that doesn’t make them any less effective or useful.

COMMENTARY By Barry Eppley The development of a droopy neck and saggy jowls is loved by few...and is the bane of many women and some older men. Much can be found that promises to improve it from creams, exercises, laser and light therapies, and even the occasional clothespin approach. While surgery is the only effective option for that loose neck and jowl skin, everyone would like to have as little surgery as possible and avoid hearing that dreaded word...facelift. While the fears surrounding a facelift are largely unfounded, people would certainly like to avoid that consideration if possible. This facelift phobia has led to the emergence of the concept of the branded selling of facelift surgery. The most well-known current example is that of the Lifestyle Lift. Through their national magazine and television ads, this is a franchise approach to getting a facelift…or some version of it. Interestingly, nowhere in their advertising does the company suggest it is actual surgery. Somehow the concepts of surgery and lifestyle are incongruous. I have seen numerous patients who have visited their facilities and were surprised to learn that it was actually an operation that requires some recovery and a temporary change in their lifestyle. In reality, the Lifestyle Lift is an

It’s never too late for ‘clean’ eating FITNESS By April Conard It is the end of May, and you are kicking yourself for the healthy eating plan you did not begin. Never fear! It‘s not too late to start, and with all this rain, it looks like it will be a while until you will be poolside anyway. Have you ever heard the term eating “clean”? Clean eating is not a diet; it’s a lifestyle. The commitment to this way of eating is full time. It’s not about denying yourself or going hungry. It is about eating with thought and planning. There is one simple rule. Jillian Michaels from the Biggest Loser said it best: “If it doesn’t come from the earth, and if it doesn’t have a mother, don’t eat it.” (Vegetarians, disregard last part) Not to say that all fruit, vegetables and meat are created equal. Try to go organic whenever possible. I know it can be pricey, but I believe you are worth it, don’t you? If you must pick and choose, buy organic when you consume the skin or outer layer. When grocery shopping, think outside of the box; this means shop only in the outer part of the store, where the food is not processed. The most important feature of clean eating is what it isn’t. Clean eating is not a diet you follow for a few agonizing months,

denying yourself certain foods. Have you ever wondered why fad diets worked while you were on them? It’s simple mathematics really. If you usually eat proteins, and fats and carbohydrates (as you should), and you remove one of those food groups, you’ll lose weight, but only while you’re on the plan. Once you reintroduce these banished foods … BAM! You gain weight all over again, and usually a great deal more. With all the fresh fruits and vegetables at your disposal right now, it has never been a better time to start. Support local famers by shopping at the farmers market on Saturday mornings. Make it a family affair and go to one of the “you pick” farms and learn together the importance of eating fresh and clean. Don’t be surprised at how “clean” your body feels after a few weeks of cutting out the junk! Your energy will soar, pounds will be shed, and your taste buds will learn once again how REAL food tastes!

Now, I have a nice, big sign. Everything is set up right where I want it to be.” Grosser, who views jewelry as art, focuses on creating unique, modern pieces. He says his creations make the eye wander because they lack a central visual focus. He also restyles and repairs jewelry.

Grosser says the connections he makes at the jewelry shows result in lifelong customers. His work as a photographer at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway also forges relationships.

» Fake tweeters are bots - As Twitter grows like wildfire, spam is becoming an increasing problem for the service, and spam purveyors are using fake or disguised accounts, as well as increasingly sophisticated computer programs called “bots,” to try to evade Twitter’s terms of service. For example, whenever a hot new tech product like the iPad 2 is released, spammers track mentions of the product and follow or retweet the accounts. A spam-bot is designed to flood the stream with the same or similar content, possibly over many, many accounts, in an effort to deluge the system. The fact that the accounts are fake only makes matters worse. In this case, the various phony accounts appear to be pumping hundreds, if not thousands of links, automatically, to the same site every day. -www.wired.com

What is a QR code, and how do you use and create one? TECHNOLOGY By Gary Hubbard What are those strange patterned square boxes tyou’re starting to see everywhere, and what do they do? Those strange square boxes are called QR (Quick Response) codes, and they have actually been around for quite some time. They were created in 1994 by a Japanese subsidiary of Toyota as a two-dimensional barcode for tracking parts during the manufacturing process. Popular for years in various Asian countries, they are starting to gain traction in the United States primarily as a marketing tool. The primary focus of QR codes at the moment is to entice mobile users to scan them to connect to a Web address, offer promotional discounts, download an MP3 file, dial a telephone number or even launch your e-mail client with a sender address. You will start seeing them a lot more often in magazines as a way to further explain an article or to get more information on a product being advertised. Marketers like this new trend because the demographics of tech-savvy camera-phone users tend to be very desirable for most advertisers, and you can track exactly how many people scanned the QR code. In order to read QR codes, your smartphone or camera phone must have a barcode reader. All major smartphone platforms have numerous

readers, and many “feature phones” with cameras can download readers. A comprehensive list of QR code readers by platform and phone type is located at http:// goo.gl/RtpKB.

Marketers like this new trend because the demographics of tech-savvy camera-phone users tend to be very desirable for most advertisers... Once you have the reader on your mobile device, you simply open the program and point the camera at the QR code placing it within the target area displayed on your screen. Once it focuses on the QR code, it will read the instructions embedded within the random patterns and ask you if you would like to execute the instructions (go to a Web site, call a number, etc.) There are numerous uses for QR codes, especially for businesses. One of the challenges of today’s digital communication landscape is there are too many to list on a business card (phone, fax, e-mail, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, etc.) By placing a QR code on your business card with the suggestion to “Connect with me,” you can list all your contact resources on a Web page where there is plenty of room (or set up a free profile at https://about.me with all your links). QR codes can be printed on coffee cups,

T-shirts, places in the front window of your business, in your advertising, your phone book ads, your Web site or just about anywhere on or off-line that you want to engage with your customers. There are many ways to create QR codes for free (if you already use Google’s URL shortener at http://goo.gl, each link you create comes with an associated QR code if you click on Details at the end) but my favorite resource is at http://zxing.appspot.com/generator . This powerful interface allows you to create QR codes for: • Calendar events • Contact information • E-mail addresses • Geo locations • Phone numbers • SMS (text nessaging) • General text • URLs (any Web address) • Wifi network access Whether you are a consumer or a business owner, you should seriously consider getting up to speed on using and creating these really handy digital barcodes.

Women who cheat, Part 3 RELATIONSHIPS By Rachel Noble In this series on females cheating, I talked about my own observances and speculation about why women cheat. There could be a plethora of reasons why a woman would stray – of course, none of them are an excuse for cheating. However, understanding why women cheat could help promote change. Another argument as to why a woman cheats could have to do with her personality. Of course, there’s always the random cheater who does so for the thrill of secrecy or is treated badly by her spouse or “fell” into an affair slowly, say with a co-worker or friend. But as mentioned in the first column of this series, what I discovered in research is that there seems to be two types of cheating women. First, I call her the “disregarded woman.” She’s the woman who never seemed to get the attention she craved from her husband (and maybe even her father when she was young) and perhaps has come to the point of lacking selfesteem. Think “Bridges of Madison County” (Meryl Streep plays the part of a housewife facing little passion in her marriage and ends up having an affair with a man she meets by random whim). And secondly, the “scorned woman” is the gal who perhaps was hurt badly enough that she

became the “bad girl” and at the extreme, and tends to display sociopathic tendencies. Think the Angelina Jolie stealing Brad Pitt from Jennifer Aniston type or Denise Richards having an affair with her best friend’s man. In addition, I’m also going to add to the mix, “the mistress” (the woman who goes after the married man). Perhaps she’s in a category all her own, but I think she’s worth talking about. Think Jamie Grubbs – Tiger Woods’ mistress who obviously was well aware Tiger was married. In many cases, “the mistress” doesn’t care that she could destroy a family and is hurting another woman. She is most likely insecure but is more so selfish, wanting her needs to be met at the detriment of others. Ladies, there is no excuse for cheating. But in these next few columns, I’ll discuss each personality in more detail and cover the whys and what we can do about female infidelity. I believe change can happen. And guys, I’ll let you in on some secrets too as to how you can also be a part of this change. Rachael Noble is a single Carmel resident and contributing columnist.

Memorial Day in war and peace “We use Current for branding” SPIRITUALITY By Bob Walters Some thoughts for Memorial Day, when America remembers her war heroes who died that we might be free, fought that we might know peace, and served us that we might serve others. • Memorial Day easily captures the context of Christian faith, as we offer to God prayers of thanks and remembrance for the sacrifice of others. • Jesus Christ, it is supremely worth noting, died for our freedom. He invented the concept, really. It is something that never occurred to or in humanity until Christ died on the Cross, defeating death and erasing our sin: We were free. It was a gift we didn’t request, solved a problem we didn’t know we had and, with faith, provided a victory impossible to imagine: eternal loving relationship with the Creator God in heaven. That’s what God wants for us. • The Bible exhorts, “God is love.” Christ’s example teaches that love requires freedom. That must be God’s toughest task – loving us enough to provide our freedom, with which we choose whether to love God or not. God knows love resides only in the presence of freedom and the absence of coercion, for coercion robs freedom, drains the soul, stifles hope and strangles faith. Love dies. That’s not what God wants for us. • The Bible does not mandate systems or fes-

tivals commemorating Christ, because Jesus appeared once for all, took on our sins once for all, was cleansed once for all, died once for all, and we were entrusted with His faith once for all. It’s why Jesus says of taking the bread and cup, His body and blood, “Do this in remembrance of me.” • “Once for all” means the eternal God appeared in mortal time as Jesus Christ and entirely changed the game for humanity’s relationship with God. God no longer mandated a place or a time or a behavior – like a temple or a festival or a commandment – to access divine relationship. Christ, by His work once for all, is to be alive in our hearts always and everywhere … in faith. The greatest war is our war with Satan … we fight it every moment of our lives. The greatest memorial is our communion with Christ. The greatest peace is in Christ. The greatest victory abides not with the swift or strong, but belongs reliably to the humble and faithful. Victory is not a remembrance of yesterday, but a hope for tomorrow. Bob Walters (www.believerbob. blogspot.com, email rlwcom@aol. com) is named after his mother’s brother Bob, a naval aviator who died in WWII.

Cost-effective remodel of a 1970s kitchen REMODELING By Larry Greene Original kitchen: This home located in the Woodland Springs subdivision on the east side of Carmel was built in 1973. The kitchen had never been remodeled and the current owner was facing the replacement of the original 27-inch-wide range. Since most current models start at 30 inches wide, this got them thinking about a full-fledged kitchen remodel. The homeowner thought, “Let’s change some other things we don’t like while we’re at it.” Favorite features: The existing cabinets were replaced with new maple stock cabinets with a ginger stain and square raised panel full-overlay doors. The homeowner said, “One of your favorite things is the floor to ceiling cabinets. Also, we love the new location of the dishwasher. The dishwasher is now right next to the sink instead of way over in the peninsula. The refrigerator used to open into the desk and now it doesn’t. The remodel just really opened up the kitchen. Although we did not tear down any walls, we have so much more space than before, and the space is being used more efficiently.” The biggest difference: According to the homeowner, the biggest difference now is the new cabinets. “The cabinets are much more up to date. Removing the old peninsula created a more open feel. I love the pull-out drawers in the pantry. The cast iron

Before sink looks much more stylish than the original sink. This kitchen remodel has changed the main floor of our home tremendously!” Flooring changes: The new flooring also was a favorite. “I really love the hardwood floor refinishing. I didn’t like the way the hardwood floors looked before. During the remodel, we decided to keep the hardwood floors and have them refinished instead. They replaced some boards and sanded them all down before refinishing. They just look beautiful now and I love them. You cannot tell the old boards from the new”

Riding in cars with dogs

DISPATCHES

COMMENTARY By John Mikesell It is that time of the year, and things are finally beginning to heat up. We must be ever vigilant about our pets (and kids too) and leaving them in the car when the outside temperatures are over 65 degrees. There are also many factors to allowing your dog to ride in the car with you. Consider all the canine passenger safeguards, and select the one that will best suit your dog and your circumstances. Train your dog to behave in the car like you train him to do anything: by setting him up for success, and reinforcing him for the desired calm behavior. Be on the lookout for dogs at risk of heat stroke in cars on warm days. Don’t hesitate to call animal protection authorities or the police department if you see a dog suffering fro the heat. A dog sitting on the driver’s lap can interfere with steering. A dog that gets on or under the accelerator or brake pedals, hits the gear shift, or blocks the driver’s view can cause an accident. When the driver’s attention is taken away from the road to deal with the dog’s behavior, the dog has become a safety hazard. A loose dog can become a flying missile if the car stops abruptly or is hit by another car. If the car windows break or the doors pop open in an accident, a loose dog can escape, get hit on the road, or run off and become lost. An unsecured dog can interfere with the efforts of rescue workers in an emergency. A dog with its head out the window can

» Shelter garage sale – From the Heart Rescue, the Westfield-based nonprofit which provides the felines for the PetSmart at Greyhound Pass, is having a garage sale to help raise funds for the shelter. The sale will go from June 2 through 4, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., at 14818 Setters Road, Westfield. The event will include a number of items and a raffle with the support of Girl Scout Troop 378. For more information, visit www. heartrescue.org. » Adopt cats for less - All felines, kittens included, will be 50 percent off every Thursday at the Humane Society for Hamilton County until further notice. That’s just $37.50 or less for the fabulous feline of your choice including spay/neuter, microchip and vaccines. The hope is that the new Thursday incentive will encourage people to adopt a cat or kitten, opening space for the influx of felines that the shelter is already seeing due to “kitten season” and the continued increase in owner-surrendered cats. “In May alone, we have taken in numerous pregnant cats, dozens of orphaned kittens and nearly 100 stray and unwanted cats,” said Executive Director Rebecca Stevens. “When we see this kind of increase in arrivals, we also see an increase in illnesses among the animals due to overcrowding. By reducing the number of cats in our care, our hope is to prevent the spread of illness and cramped quarters for the felines who remain.”

T-Bone is a 6 year old male black and tan Corgi mix. T-Bone is a social boy who is a bit of a comedian at times. He loves to run and play, but he also enjoys belly rubs very much. TBone is house trained and knows the commands sit and down. He is very active but also affectionate and enjoys cuddle time . He is very attached and even dependent on his brother, Brewster, and will need to be adopted together and they would be best suited in a home with children age 10 or older. T-Bone and Brewster qualify for our PAWS Program – Partnering Animals With Seniors, so anyone age 55 or older can adopt them for a reduced fee. suffer injury to its eyes from flying debris, or worse, can have its head smashed by objects that pass too close to the car (other vehicle Mirrors, signs, branches) A loose dog can fall or jump out of an open window or back of a truck. The temperature in a parked car on a warm (not even hot) day can kill a dog. Even on cold days, the dog can become very uncomfortable if left in cold car for a long time. Even on a cloudy day, cars can become uncomfortable and way too warm for your pet, even after a short time. As a rule, cracking the window on warm sunny days is not enough, so be very careful during these warm summer days.

Coleman is a 3 year old male black and white DSH. Coleman is an outgoing boy who loves to explore and find new things and meet new people. He arrived at the shelter in early April and had a few scratches and scars and was in need of some TLC. While his scars remain, he hopes they won’t deter anyone from seeing what a great cat he would be and give him a chance at having a life as a family pet. Coleman is litter box trained and friendly with people and especially enjoys being scratched behind his ears.

Things are getting a bit squirrely at my house HUMOR By Mike Redmond When we were kids, my brother and sister and I had a pet squirrel named “Filbert.” Well, “pet” is a bit of an overstatement. He lived in the tree behind our house and came to the back door to get the nuts we left for him. Anyway, I haven’t buddied up to Sciurus niger since Filbert, and this year is no exception. Once again, I find myself at odds with the neighborhood squirrels over a long-standing dispute over who REALLY owns the bird feeder. First, you should understand this is strictly between me and the squirrels. The birds have long since been cut out of the deal. Second, you should understand that anyone who says he has a squirrel-proof bird feeder is a lying sack of sunflower seeds. But back to the feeder. Over the years, I have bought every squirrel-proof bird feeder on the market, and over the years the squirrels have gotten fat at my expense. Out of necessity, I have even taken to “improving” the feeders. For example, I bought a feeder that had a locking door on the top of the bin and a feeder bar that would close the trough if touched by anything heavier than a chickadee. It took one day for the squirrels to figure out how to get seed without touching the bar, two

to open the top. I wrapped the lid down tight with not one, not two, but three bungee cords. Two days later the squirrels were bungee jumping off the top of the garage. I bought six feet of stainless steel chain, wrapped it around the bird feeder and secured it with a combination padlock. Three hours later, I went out on the deck with a cup of tea and saw a squirrel twirling the knob with a look of intense concentration on his face and a tiny stethoscope in his ears. Hallucination or not, that’s when I decided to just give up. The squirrels weren’t too happy about it, but they haven’t lost any weight, so I don’t think they’re suffering. Which, in a way, gets me back to Filbert. Oh, he didn’t suffer. But when Dad got cute and tried to hand feed him, Filbert bit him right on the index finger. He had to get stitches and a shot. He suffered. It was anything but a positive interaction. And I think that’s why he never said no when I asked to go squirrel hunting. Mike Redmond is an author, journalist, humorist and speaker.

The king of Big Macs HUMOR By Dick Wolfsie I try to never tire my readers by repeating topics in my newspaper column. But this week I have egg on my face, in a special sauce. I recently reported to you about a city in California that had squeezed into the Guinness Book of Records for consuming the most Big Macs per capita. Now, just three weeks later, we learn that a man named Dan Gorske has consumed his 25,000th Big Mac, an eating binge that stretched over 39 years, most of that stretching being done by his pants. In all fairness, Gorske claims he has no known health issues. Which means he probably has plenty of health issues, but they’re all unknown to medical science – undiscovered syndromes and bodily malfunctions just looking for catchy names so they can finally worm their way into the newest copy of “The Journal of Digestive Diseases.” I used the word “worm” on purpose. Nevertheless, Dan asserts he is healthy due to good genetics, and because he doesn’t order a lot of extras, such as fries and sugary sodas. Is there anything more annoying than a self-righteous health nut? Dan has never been sick, he says, except to his stomach. So the bottom line is that the Big

Macs have not ruined his health, but they did stain half of his bowling shirts. Dan eats two or three Big Macs between 10 in the morning and midnight. If he wakes up in the middle of the night with a craving, he always has one in the freezer. In the past 39 years, he has only missed a few days – something about a snowstorm and a pesky colonoscopy. Dan is the author of a book called “22,477 Big Macs,” a lie the minute it was published. I downloaded it on my Kindle, and now I know really cool stuff like the average number of bites it takes Dan to eat a Big Mac (16) and the fact that he has enjoyed one at every NASCAR track, even though he usually has to hide it in his pants in order to smuggle it in. Can this story get any creepier? Dan says he can reach 50,000 Big Macs by the time he’s 90 years old as long as he stays healthy. He hopes to do a commercial for McDonald’s where he can brag about the nutritional benefits of this iconic three-decker sandwich. Would this be a little lie? Yes, but at least it’s not a whopper.
