The owners of Detour - An American Grille got a pleasant surprise at the Carmel Board of Works meeting June 5 when Mayor Jim downtown Brainard not only announced that its request for an outdoor party with live music was granted, but also that he will close the adjacent portion of 2nd Avenue NW through approximately Nov. 1 for public safety reasons. However, along with the granting of the request came several very strongly worded caveats and financial obligations for the owners of Detour, as well. The mayor’s decision seems to have been influenced in part by Detour’s new general manager, Mark Schaefer, who assured the Board of Works that he would keep a tight control on the evening’s events. “These people work for me,” Schaefer said, referring to the bands. “I pay them, and I’ll tell them to turn it down.” The mayor told Schaefer that he appreciated that statement, and said that he had not heard such a strong statement from a representative of Detour in the past. However, the mayor is backing up that promise with some muscle from the city as well. The Police Chief Tim Green will assign officers to the event, and Detour will bear the full cost of compensating the city for their wages, which, according to the Mayor is $56.34 per hour on regular time and $84.50 per hour at time and a half (including all benefits). “I will speak to the officers on duty myself,”

Brainard said. “And, I will tell them that they have full authority to shut it down the minute they feel things are getting out of control. People have to be able to sit outside at Bazbeaux or Bub’s and have a conversation, easily. And, one word of profanity from the band, and it’s done.” Brainard also told the representatives from Detour that they would need to find an attractive alternative to the orange temporary fencing they have used in the past, which the mayor said detracts from the overall look of the area, and instead find railing-type fencing. He also chastised Detour for blocking the sidewalk with tables and chairs to the point that pedestrians were forced to walk in the street to pass by the restaurant, and noted that they do not have a letter of permission on file to use that space. “Your lease stops at your door. The sidewalk belongs to the city and you need to ask permission to use it,” Brainard said. Schaefer also agreed to ensure that the breezeway would remain unobstructed so that there would be easy access to the Monon steps. The decision to close the street does not give Detour carte blanche to hold outdoor parties with live music any time it wants. According to the mayor’s office, Detour still will need to request permission each time it wants to have live music outside. “We are happy to have worked out the challenges we have faced in the past,” Schaefer said. “And, we’re ready to show the city that we can be good neighbors, and make the event something the whole city can enjoy.”
Book signing – City planner Jeff Speck will be signing his latest book, “Walkable City: How Downtown Can Save America, One Step at a Time,” at the Carmel Chamber of Commerce luncheon June 12 at Ritz Charles, 12156 N. Meridian St., before the luncheon at 11:30 a.m. to noon and after the luncheon at 1:30 p.m. During the luncheon, Speck will present Midtown - A Redevelopment Plan. Speck is the designer of the plan for that area in Carmel between Main Street and City Center which is bisected by the Monon Trail. Scholarship fundraiser – The Carmel Arts Council will host a fundraiser on June 22 from 4 to 9 p.m. at the SoHo Cafe and Gallery patio and parking lot, 620 S. Range Line Rd., to raise funds for its scholarship for young artists. The event will feature live entertainment from Henle & The Loops and Phone Club, and will feature local artists booths, door prizes and food trucks. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own lawn chairs. All ages are welcome. Wine dinner – Donatello’s Italian Restaurant will host a wine dinner June 25 with summery wines, both red and white, paired with favorites from chef Patrick Aasen. Diners pay $65 each, including tax and tip, for five courses, five wines and additional offerings. The menu includes: fried calamari, scallops and shrimp, wild mushroom ravioli, fresh mozzarella salad, grilled Ahi tuna, filet mignon, desserts and more. Dinner starts at 7:15 p.m., but free appetizers will be available with a cash bar starting at 6 p.m. Call 564-4790 to reserve a spot. Ceremony – The public is invited to attend the open installation of officers at Job’s Daughters International, Bethel 68 Westfield/Carmel at 2 p.m. June 15.

Carmel City Council recap By Karen Kennedy • karenk@youarecurrent.com
Citizen concerns: A resident and a representative from the 451 American Way development voiced their concerns about more streets and buildings directly surrounding their neighborhood, as each unit has its own HVAC which vents directly outside. They are worried that exhaust fumes and noise from a new building will impair their quality of life and have a negative impact on the value of their neighborhood. They are also concerned about possible drainage issues. What’s next: Council President Rick Sharp said he understood their concerns but also reminded them of the limits of the council where private enterprise is concerned. What happened: The ordinance prohibiting barbed wire and electric fencing was passed What it means: No new installation of barbed wire, razor wire or electric fencing is allowed within three feet of any street, sidewalk, alley or other public way within the city’s corporate limits. All existing electric fences within the city’s corporate limits will be required to have double-faced warning signs every 100 feet. Underground pet containment systems are exempt from this ordinance.
What’s next: The mayor did not sign the ordinance.

What happened: Council voted against supporting Pedcor’s TIF application for Midtown redevelopment What it means: The mayor and the council were sharply divided on this issue. Council members Kevin Rider and Sue Finkham were the sole supporters of the resolution, and Mayor Jim Brainard urged the remaining council members to reconsider their opposition. “I am disgusted,” councilwoman Finkham said of her fellow council members’ refusal to support the resolution. Councilman Rider echoed, “I am baffled at why we don’t want to bring this money back into the community.” However, councilwoman Luci Snyder, expressing surprise at Finkham’s strongly worded opinion, reminded the council that they had made a commitment to debt reduction. And while she conceded that supporting Pedcor’s TIF application would not immediately take money out of taxpayer’s pockets, it would ultimately obligate the city down the line in terms of water, sewer and utilities to the tune of approximately $8 million to $9 million.
What’s next: Pedcor can proceed with the TIF application without the city’s support.

Now she is a believer again
Commentary by Jeff Worrell
I sensed something was up when I started receiving emails referring to someone named Nancy Benjamin. I did not hospitality yet understand. Nancy had written a strongly worded Letter to the Editor on May 29 in Current. In that letter she asked, “What happened to Hoosier hospitality? What happened to Carmel hospitality?” She went on to scold. “I feel ashamed as a native Hoosier at how we have treated a relocated family to the Carmel area.” Her stinging rebuke was not easy to read. I sensed her frustration, and I credit her for speaking up, but I just could not agree with her premise. She definitely had my full attention and as it turns out, she got yours, too. The first email in my inbox whose attention Nancy captured was from Daniel Boylan. He and his family, newcomers to Carmel themselves simply stated, “Help me find Nancy. I have stuff to give.” Daniel was the first, but he was not alone. Seems Ms. Benjamin learned first-hand Carmel hospitality is alive, well and abundant. Within hours of the Current hitting neighborhood mailboxes, she had more than 25 serious offers of help and financial support. During the next few days, the pledges of furniture, household supplies, clothing, Target gift cards and words of encouragement swelled and easily doubled.

Nancy’s garage is stuffed with generous gifts, all meant for the New York family displaced by Hurricane Sandy who now call Carmel home. When I reached out to Nancy, she was very clear, “I have received almost more support than I can handle, and the family is totally taken care of.” When I asked her if she would like to write another Letter to the Editor she said, “Everyone has been so generous and kind. I was shocked but I shouldn’t be. This is the Carmel I know having lived here 20 years.” Although Nancy initially sought help from organizations not able to offer help in this specific case, she now understands there is a fully functioning safety net in Carmel serving Hamilton County. Several of the emails she received directed her to institutions like Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Furniture program and the Clay Township Trustee. But clearly, the majority of the emails were from Carmel citizens with so much to give. The fact this story has a happy ending is no surprise to me. I believe in Carmel and the people who live here. And now, thanks to you, Nancy Benjamin and the family from New York are believers, too.

important award.” Inspired by Indiana’s limestone tradition of making artistically beautiful pieces that travel throughout the world, Galloway’s proposed award piece is structurally based on the spires that he carved for the National Cathedral. Using the same techniques and materials used in the Cathedral’s upper spires, Galloway will carve the heavy limestone into thin dancer-like figures, while maintaining the stone’s strong central axis, producing a visually impressive award. Galloway was selected from a field of traditional artists from around the state invited to submit proposals to create the awards. “This will mark 40 years since the inception of the Governor’s Arts Awards, and it seems fitting that one of Indiana’s oldest traditional art forms should represent this year’s awards,” said IAC Executive Director Lewis C. Ricci. In 2011, Cicero glass artist Ben Johnson crafted the awards presented to opera singer Sylvia
The Indiana Arts Commission has commissioned a Bedford limestone sculptor to create the 2013 Governor’s Arts Awards arts which will be presented this fall during a special awards program at the Carmel Center for the Performing Arts. Growing up in southern Indiana, William Galloway was captivated by the natural elements around him. He discovered his fascination with art and his aptitude for math, an unusual combination. His interest in art led to studies at Galloway Indiana University, where he also focused on philosophy and religion. At that time, the lack of available instruction in stone sculpture techniques prompted him to explore the indigenous stone carving industry. Galloway began working with Indiana limestone in the 1980s, apprenticing under the renowned carvers Henry Morris and Clarence Hayes at the Bybee Stone Co. in Ellettsville. He achieved the position of Master Carver at Bybee and led projects including the carving of window tracery for the National Cathedral and statuary for the Examples of WIlliam Galloway’s sculptures.

Keep Your Family Safe This Summer Summertime is all about outdoor fun — but make sure your kids know the importance of summer safety. Summer is the perfect time of year to spend enjoying the great outdoors. But health issues including excessive sun exposure, injuries and dehydration can bring a quick end to summer fun. That means it’s critical to teach your kids how to stay safe and healthy during this time of year.
While sun safety is important, it isn’t the only element to keeping kids safe during summer months. Because summer often means increased time spent outside, injuries tend to be more common at this time of year. But by taking precautions, many of these injuries can be prevented. “Teaching your kids to always wear a helmet when riding their bike is a great example of how you can help your children stay safe,” said Dr. Mick. “Bike injuries do happen, but if your child is wearing a helmet, it drastically reduces the chances of a serious injury.”
Dr. Andy Dillingham
Dr. Gerald Mick
“The summer sun can pose dangerous health risks to children even if they’re only exposed for a short time. That’s why it’s important to always make sure your kids are wearing sunscreen that’s at least 30+ SPF,” said Dr. Gerald Mick, family physician with St.Vincent Medical Group. “Using sunscreen and staying hydrated will provide great protection from the sun. But if your children play outdoors frequently, it’s important they still take periodic breaks so they don’t overheat.”
Other summer safety tips include wearing bug spray to protect against mosquito bites, providing constant supervision to kids at play—especially in and around water—and keeping children away from potentially dangerous objects like hot grills and fireworks. Just remember: a fun summer is a safe summer. The offices of Dr. Gerald Mick and Dr. Andy Dillingham are conveniently located in Carmel at 12400 N. Meridian St., Suite 100. If you’d like to schedule an appointment or a free get-acquainted visit, call 317-582-8900.

Children fill the chairs at Main Street Barber Shop to have their heads shaved to help raise funds for Tatum’s Bags of Fun on May 30. (Photo by Heather Clark)
There’s still good going on
Commentary by Jason Peek
On May 30, the last day of school, Main Street Barber Shop hosted Ben & Alex’s Shave-A-Thon for Tatum’s Bags Of Philanthropy Fun. Tatum’s foundation delivers a backpack with about $350 worth of age-appropriate gifts to every child in Indiana that has cancer, and I believe is working on Cincinnati and St. Louis, too. Please check out her web page at tatumsbagsoffun.org. It’s quite inspiring how these younglings sweet hearts decided to help others. We were honored when asked to help and had a great turnout. The goal was to raise $5,000, and the generosity for these beautiful babies brought $11,138.32 if I’m correct. To watch these kids, friends and family come together and encourage each other was an awesome sight and something to not be missed. Men, kids and four brave ladies let us shave their heads to raise money, and while that was all going on, everyone was enjoying the parking lot with a great DJ who came at the last minute to help.
City Barbecue, “Ol’ Hogjawz’ personal favorite,” brought brisket, smoked chicken, potato salad and baked beans, and everyone demolished Joe’s Butcher Shop’s “I’m pretty sure” world-famous hot dogs. Kona showed up to shave ice for the hot day, and my man Bruce Calabrese, owner of Old Town Tavern, provided some frosty libations for the adults. “Summer Shandy.” For some barbers who love kids and hate cancer, this was great. With a world that seems to be crumbling, I continue to see good people step up to make it better. And for so many people to be so unselfish was breath taking. Friend Main Street Barber shop on Facebook to see some photos and to join in next year for an even better event. Thanks to all the people who make a decision to do good in our world, and bless their hearts. Jason Peek is the owner of the Main Street Barber Shop. Want to tell him what you think?

In keeping with this year’s parade theme “CarmelFest Silver Jubilee”, the Grand Marshals will be Dottie Hancock & Nancy Blondin (the founders of the first CarmelFest held 25 years ago). The CarmelFest Parade has long been a favorite part of our City’s Independence Day Celebration. Parade Director, Peggy Powell, proudly admits, “The annual parade captures the essence of a vibrant and diverse American community.” She added, “Local businesses and organizations have put extra effort into providing colorful parade entries. Everyone will enjoy our fabulous selection of music from Marching Bands, the popular Gordon Pipers and steel drum players. Plus, we will have themed floats, crowd-pleasing clowns, talented
gymnasts and more.” The parade will begin at AAA Way and Carmel Drive at 10:30 a.m. and will proceed west to Range Line, then north on Range Line to Main Street. It will head east on Main Street and conclude at Carmel High School. (The detailed Parade route is on the CarmelFest web site.) I plan on staking out my viewing position on the parade route the night before – with no worries about my chairs being safely in their place until the next morning. My family will join the community waving our flags and cheering for our hometown parade on July 4th!

Grad raising money for transplant Commentary by Kim Corbin
If you would have told me when I graduated from Carmel High School in 1987 that I would go on to have a career philanthropy in public relations that would have at least seemed feasible. Had you told me, however, that I would one day be called on to use my publicity skills to help raise money toward expenses for a life-saving transplant for my best friend from college more than 25 years later, I never would have believed it. But here I am. I met Stephanie Devine Rath when we both lived in the same dorm at Purdue University. At the time, I had no idea what Cystic Fibrosis was. But in the years since, I have unfortunately watched her lungs gradually decline to the point where she needs to be on oxygen full time and a double lung transplant has become a necessity for her ongoing survival. I also watched with amazement at the grace with which she absorbed the shock of being diagnosed with rectal cancer. Never feeling sorry for herself, she just went to work to do what she had to do to be healthy enough to be considered for transplant as her lungs continued to deteriorate. Stephanie’s buoyant and optimistic spirit inspires everyone around her. She has become affectionately know as the “Pink Pig” to her friends and family because of her strong identifi-
cation with the phrase, “If pigs have wings, away they’d fly. “The flying pig has become a symbol for me of overcoming the impossible. If a pig can grow wings, then maybe I can make it till I get wings of my own. My wings would be in the form of a double lung transplant. How wonderful it would be to fly or even just run a block. Someday, hopefully, the dream will be a reality,” Stephanie said. I want more than anything to see Stephanie get her wings at long last. She is tremendously courageous and strong and brave, and she loves life more than anyone I know. She’s not afraid at all of the transplant procedure. She says she feels like a kid at Christmastime who is about to open the best gift ever. We are working with the Children’s Transplant Association in honor of Stephanie to raise an estimated $65,000 toward transplant expenses. Your financial support would be greatly appreciated. Of course, energetic donations are welcome, too. So please join me in sending prayers and good thoughts Stephanie’s way as she waits for the call that will hopefully give her the wings she needs to soar to new heights in her life. Kim Corbin grew up in Carmel and is now a Senior Book Publicist and Social Media Manager for New World Library, a book publisher located in the San Francisco Bay Area.

CHS Marching Band wins Sudler Shield award news@currentincarmel.com
The Carmel High School Marching Band has been awarded the prestigious Sudler Shield award for outstanding achievement high school, youth and international marching bands. Administered by the John Philip Sousa Foundation, the award is one of the highest forms of recognition for marching band programs. “We are absolutely thrilled to be honored with this award,” said Chris Kreke, Director of Bands at CHS. “In the marching band world, this is similar to the Kennedy Center Honors or a Grammy Lifetime Achievement award. The type of sustained excellence necessary to be awarded this honor is a direct result of the amazing talent of our students, as well as the outstanding administrative and parental support our program receives here at Carmel High School.” Sudler Shield award recipients are selected by a panel of 17 university and secondary directors of national and international reputation in the marching band field. The award is endowed

Perfecting Elegance She could study anywhere, but 15-year-old pre-professional ballerina Miko Fogarty chose Carmel to prepare for an upcoming international competition. By Nina Johnson • news@youarecurrent.com
academy’s world-class instructors. “She has had opportunities to train with masters all over the world,” Rust said. “She’s received training from some of the best teachers anyone in ballet could dream to even know.” Fogarty says the decision to relocate to Carmel was not a difficult one. “My mom and I love Carmel very much,” she said.
Miko Fogarty, the 15-year-old pre-professional ballerina who inspired the 2012 documentary “First Position,” temporarily relocated from California to train at Carmel’s Indiana Ballet Conservatory Cover Story this spring. In March, Fogarty rented a studio at the conservatory to practice for the Youth America Grand Prix regional semi-finals in Indianapolis. Local fans of ballet and the documentary flocked to the studio for her autograph and photos. “We did not expect “First Position” to become this big, so it was a surprise when everyone knew about it,” she said. The conservatory’s director of marketing and outreach, Missy Rust, said Fogarty appreciated the welcome and was pleased to discover “that the legendary Tatiana Pali is teaching (here).” Fogarty said she and her mother, Satoko, “really liked the atmosphere of the school.” Fogarty earned second place in both classical and contemporary dance and achieved honor as one of the Top 12 women dancers at the Grand Prix scholarship competition while the Indiana Ballet Conservatory won for Outstanding School.

Moskalenko confirmed Fogarty’s day includes up to seven hours “drilling on every detail of her variations.” He says the Moscow International is one of the most prestigious and difficult competitions for the world’s best dancers. “I am very pleased with the progress she is making,” Moskalenko said. “For every minute detail can make a difference.” Preparations include working with her instructors and mother to choose choreography that showcases her skills. Fogarty flies to Japan for tailor-made tutus. “Costumes are very important,” she said. “We put a lot of thought into every costume.” Fogarty will perform at the reconstructed Bolshoi Theatre for the Moscow International Ballet Competition. “I am most looking forward to dancing in the famous Bolshoi Theatre and meeting new and old friends from around the world,” she said. Moskalenko emphasized the historic significance of the competition’s venue, which was built in 1824. “Pressure will be there,” he said. “But so will inspiration.” Before stepping onstage, Fogarty reflects on the emotion of her piece and prepares her smile. “I try and become the character that I am supposed to portray,” she said. “It takes a lot of practice and concentration to become the character.” Fogarty said she “always really enjoyed ballet.” As a preschooler, she tried violin and gymnastics until she realized her true passion. “I was so happy every time I went to ballet class,” she said. “I was inspired by the ballerinas I saw onstage and on TV.” Moskalenko hopes Miko will perform on all the world’s leading stages before securing her dream contract with the Royal Ballet. Having danced with the Bolshoi Ballet himself, he suggested this competition may persuade Miko to pursue a future at the Bolshoi. “It might be time to start learning that difficult language,” he said. “Russian!”

FROM THE BACKSHOP The presidency: Latest in long line
Cooperative giving
It is our position that underutilized volunteerism, resources and talent should be shifted to the organizations that need it most. Often times, there is an overabundance of volunteers at schools or organizations who, in actuality, need them the least. Low volunteer turnover can easily put the squeeze on available opportunities. PTO monopolies and tiresome politics can downright suck the enthusiasm out of a willing and able volunteer. There are many schools in Hamilton and Boone counties that have a low parent volunteer rate. If you want to read to children, and there is no opportunity at your child’s school, volunteer at a school in need. A great example of cooperative giving is by the staff and students at Creekside Middle School. During a recent Creekside Student Challenge, students and staff donated books to The Lunch Club in Sheridan that serves meals to children and adults in need during summers and school breaks. The Lunch Club provides books for loan to all participants. In 2007, 400 meals were served during the summer. Last year, 7,610 meals were served to adults and children in need during all school breaks.

How are you? Commentary by Terry Anker In the world of everyday interactions, there are certain phrases and gestures that we all use as indicators of greeting, transition from one point to another, of hierarchy and of civility. They can be as simple as hello or as subtle as shifting one’s eyes away when it is time for a subject or conversation to end. But somehow, and without any formal training, we all seem to understand the rules. Of course, some are better and more adept at reading and responding to these cues and others appear hopelessly adrift, unable to receive even the most slow-pitch of gestures. But there is a third group of us, imagining ourselves to be above the petty and insincere who refuse, as much on principle as ego, to perpetuate the custom. The man taking our restaurant order is simply doing a job, we might say, therefore, there is little reason to engage in the mindless banter of, “How are you tonight?” – or please and thank you. Do we really care whether this person is
having a good day at work? And isn’t it a waste of words to say please when we clearly expect service and he clearly expects payment? Are these interactions superfluous? To me, these exchanges are invaluable. They reinforce the social contract between us all. Simply put, one woman’s servant is another’s customer. By acknowledging the strata and clarifying roles, don’t we, in fact, enhance the speed and pleasure of the interaction rather than waste time or engage in unnecessary social fiction? With please, we show respect for the waiter’s toil. With thank you, he makes it clear that he understands the order and will deliver it soon. With ‘How do you do?’ are we inviting a healthy inquiry or just signaling a preparedness for exchange? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentincarmel. com.
It’s highly interesting and maybe a bit frightening to hear President Barack Obama’s administration suggest that the horrific and deadly attack eight months ago in Benghazi “was a long time ago” and that the Internal Revenue Service probes of conservative political-interest groups were the travails of a few “rogues.” Neither was on point. Late last month there was a vehement verbal volley between White House spokesman Jay Carney and Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, one during which Issa labeled Carney “a paid liar.” Well, is he? Who knows? We know this much from history: Both sides of the aisle are adept at talking out of both sides of their respective mouths. Sometimes it’s too much, or too little, to believe. We do suppose, however, that a rising tide is heading toward the White House. It’s patently shameful that the American voters have reduced the presidency to what it has become. It didn’t happen all at once through Obama’s residency in Washington. His camp’s effort is the latest in a long, saddening line of presidential failures. Bonus: More than a lifetime of angst dosed by Congress, which continues to look for ways to spend our money and does. Really, if you think about it when watching Obama tell Americans, “I didn’t know about that,” it’s totally believable; we don’t believe he’s lying. Therefore, he is the Bystander President. And this takes us back to the American voter, whose due diligence was not done with respect this administration or, really, any administration since the days of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower – except, maybe, for that of Ronald Reagan. The two parties are incapable of running this nation to effect the well-oiled superpower it should be. Until a viable third party gains momentum and becomes coast-to-coast meaningful, we’re getting and stepping in exactly that which we deserve.

Oh, the dreaded days of summer Commentary by Danielle Wilson
agers is enough to send any normal person to professional help. My sanity and patience levels desperately need a nice long break from over exposure to Axe body spray and girl drama. But come summer, I’m simply trading one taxing environment for another. Would I rather spend the day teaching algebra to bored juniors or wrangling technology-addicted kiddos outside? Hmmm. I’d rather just enjoy a cocktail. It’s not much better for moms who work yearround either. They have to pull some pretty fine logistical magic out their wazoos if they want to ensure their school-age heirs don’t spend the entire summer watching Little House reruns and playing Skyrim. “In how many camps can you enroll three kids if the age groups don’t align, the nanny can’t be here until 9, and Suzy has to be in Cheer III with her bestie?” Sweet mercy, these moms are miracle workers! You go, ladies! My point is, summer is sometimes more stressful then the day-to-day grind of the school year. Sure your bedtime schedule is more relaxed, but having to create your own routine and structure to ensure the safety and harmony of your family is challenging in its own right. Good luck to us all! Peace out.
Summer is upon us my friends, and if you’re anything like me (mother, slightly anal), you’ll appreciate the small amount of humor panic that has set in as I prepare for 10 weeks of children at home. With me. All. The. Time. Don’t get me wrong. I love the thought of not having to strong-arm my kids into doing homework every night, the idea of not using my scant knowledge of chemistry to determine out how to keep the Trix yogurt cold without ice packs (which they’ll surely throw away with their retainers), and the notion that I will no longer be schlepping my precious little angels to 700 different after-school activities in various parts of the state. I cherish all of that, for about five days. Like childbirth, I soon forget the pain and anguish of the academic year and am ready to do it all again by mid-June. And I’ve learned that it doesn’t really matter what kind of mom you are in terms of your job status. When I stayed at home, all summer meant was an increased risk of drowning, sunburn, bee stings and Kool-Aid carpet stains. It didn’t change my day-to-day schedule, except for a few older kids hanging around. I looked forward to Aug. 10 with my kids’ anticipation of Christmas. “Please, Santa, bring me a big yellow school bus!” As a teacher, of course, I can’t wait for classes to be over. One hundred and 80 days with teen-

Maybe it’s the type of music
Editor, In reference to the (potential) closing of the Detour restaurant due to the loud music, it is too bad this establishment does not realize that not everyone wants to hear this head-banging music, especially at hours past 10 p.m., or even before 10 p.m. If someone is “ill” and is trying to sleep, they definitely do not want this pounding
music in their realm. Come on Detour, this is also a residential area and people may want to entertain in their homes but have their own kind of music on and have conversations. I wonder if there would be issues if the music was smooth jazz or mellow piano tues? A Carmel resident one block behind Detour... Susan McCarty, 46032
It’s about easing fears
Editor, So, Mr. Dobson, you think that “lockdown drills” at Carmel Elementary are “reactionary, ridiculous” responses to “a rare and horrifying occurrence?” I suppose you think that a fire drill and a tornado drill are ridiculous and reactionary, also. Would you prefer that the children be unaware of what to do in the unlikely event that any of those situations occur? Do you realize what kind of chaos and possible serious injury would result in that case when the children would be running in many different directions unsure of what to do, screaming hysterically and frightened out of their minds? I am retired from the Carmel Clay Schools after 29 years with the elementaryage children. We practiced lockdown drills for several years, not just in response to the rare
occurrence you alluded to. The children were always lovingly told that it was just a drill, much like a fire drill, and they did not need to be afraid. The teachers and support staff handled the drills with calm assurance, and the children took it in stride. Those in charge offered to answer any questions the children might have, so each drill was an educational tool used to help the students to “be aware but not wary.” The school staff is trained by local law enforcement officials about appropriate procedures to implement in case of a “real” intruder. I can assure you that no adult in the school system intends to take away any child’s “beautiful and inspiring innocence.” Karla Katterhenry, 46032

Good-bye, old friend
Commentary by Toby Stark
We recently said good-bye to a dear friend… a friend that had been a gracious host and a source of comfort chaucie’s place to so many children in Hamilton County. The farmhouse that was Chaucie’s Place’s home for 10 years was demolished last week so that its owner, St.Vincent Carmel Hospital, can begin helping even more families in our community with its new St.Vincent Women’s Center. More than 2,600 children who had reported sexual or physical abuse or neglect had been interviewed in that farmhouse. Children who felt their first glimmer of hope inside those four walls, first felt support and a small sense that things may be okay. It was also inside that farmhouse where Chaucie’s Place leadership made the decisions to increase the organization’s focus on child sexual abuse prevention; understanding that there is no greater responsibility than keeping children safe, than preventing harm from happening to children. That farmhouse became Chaucie’s Place’s first home because of the Hamilton County community’s determination to find a better way for child victims, and because of the generosity of many organizations including The Legacy Fund, the Lilly Foundation, and – of course – St.Vincent Carmel Hospital who leased us the home for a mere $1 a year. St.Vincent Carmel was a generous landlord

and remains a steadfast partner. The spirit of our farmhouse lives on in our new facility, owned by Martin Marietta and leased to Chaucie’s Place for $1 a year. We salvaged almost everything that could be salvaged – to eliminate waste, save money, and to ensure a little bit of our past joins with our future. Thankyou for 10 wonderful years of caring, protection and healing. We thank St.Vincent Carmel for its hospitality and wish it well with its expansion of services for the families of Hamilton County.

AUTISM CLINIC OF INDIANA
New hope for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADD and ADHD Highly Trained Medical Staff • Advanced Individualized Treatment Options • Most Major Medical Insurance Plans Accepted Genetic Consultation • Review of Medical records • Laboratory testing “While early intervention is critical, ASD Treatment Clinic taught us it is never too late with children on the Autism Spectrum. We have three teenage children on the spectrum with varying ranges of disabilities. With Genetic Consultants of Indiana, ASD Treatment Clinic we learned what was happening to our children from the inside out. I call it our roadmap. We found out what our children needed without guessing or trying experimental treatments. Plus we loved that our major medical insurance was accepted.” - Bob & Sharon Smith, IN
“A child sneaks out of the house, runs away, is hyper, has minimal focus and can’t socialize with friends for more than a minute. That used to be our son, Jack.
• SOCIALIZATION: Why is my child having difficulty making friends? • IMPULSIVENESS: Why doesn’t my child understand consequences of his/her actions? • FOCUSING: Why does my child have problems paying attention in school and at home? • HYPERACTIVITY: Why can’t my child sit still, and has trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep? • ANGER: Why does my child display such anger and gets out of control with his/her emotions? If you can relate to any of these questions there is help.
People think the answer to autism and ADHD are psychiatric medicines, but we knew that was only going to cover up his real symptoms. Despite this, we tried several mainstream treatments that produced little to no results. In the six months that Jack has been on the protocol through ASD Treatment Clinics, he has experienced much improvement with his focus, learning ability, behavior and overall wellbeing. Early intervention is very important for children on the autism spectrum and we thank God that we were led to the ASD Treatment Clinic. Jack now has a treatment that we can trust will improve not only his life but the lives of our entire family.” - Renee and Ted Zlotopolski, Arnold, MO

I’m a competitive person. For example, I obsess about how my lawn looks in comparison to others on my block. I noticed some humor bare spots recently, so I addressed the issue with a trip to a local nursery. Then at the Memorial Day get-together last week, people were discussing Joe’s yard, which was suffering from the same problem. I thought, there, but for the grace of sod, go I. Now I have a new challenge to deal with. It began with a letter from Indianapolis Power and Light, a single page that has reawakened my latent paranoid tendencies. The envelope seemed innocent enough. It looked like my monthly electric bill. But the contents were far more ominous. The page was filled with charts and graphs and the info was labeled: LAST THREE MONTHS NEIGHBOR COMPARISON My heart jumped and my pulse raced as I scanned the enclosed printout only to learn that I was consuming more energy than those identified by IPL as “Your Most Efficient Neighbors.” I felt so exposed that I pulled the curtains down and then turned off the 11 lights, three TVs and two computers I had left on the night before. To really rub it in, IPL informed me that I used 40 percent more electricity than my most efficient neighbor. Who was this person? Which house did he live in? It didn’t say. Was he hiding
in the shadows? It’s hard to find a shadow when you never have any lights on. I asked my neighbor Mort if he received the same kind of letter. Mort is a nice guy, but he always leaves his garage door open. I thought he was just forgetful, but apparently this is part of his grand plan to be recognized by IPL as a “conservation superstar.” “Every kilowatt counts,” Mort told me while we were standing in his driveway. “If I never close that overhead door, I can save $1.49 a year.” Then he asked what I was doing to conserve resources in my home. I was tired of the conversation so I told him I only shower once a month. Mort walked back into the garage… and down came the door. The idea that someone is monitoring what goes on in and around my home is creepy. Whenever I look outside, strange people are reading my meters, putting colored lines on my neighbors’ lawns, installing invisible fences, looking through tiny telescopes mounted on tripods, and stuffing propaganda in my mailbox. Sure, call them coupons if you want, but see those two little dots in the word Meijer? That must be a secret code for something.

Learning to eat again
Commentary by Mike Redmond
Ordinarily I don’t take requests, but a bunch of people have written to ask how I’m doing with my weight-loss surgery, and humor I thought this might be the most efficient way to answer. I don’t intend to make a habit of it. As I said a couple of months ago, I’m not fond of any piece of so-called commentary falling under the “My ( Fill-In-The Blank) Journey.” In my case, if I wanted people to know every detail of my fill-in-the-blank journey, I’d invite them over to read the scale with me every morning. So, to the question at hand: How am I doing? Fine, thanks. There. Are we done? Oh, OK. I suppose some detail is in order. All right, here we go. To date I’ve lost about 60 pounds. You better believe it feels good. And no, I’m not telling you how much more I want to lose, for a couple of reasons: a. I don’t know, and b. Even if I did I’m not sure I’d want it blabbed all over the place. A fellow has to have some cards he doesn’t show. My procedure is called the duodenal switch, which is pronounced just like it is spelled: switch. Simply put, it reduces the size of the stomach and re-routes the intestines to reduce the amount of food you can eat and limit absorption of what food you do.
Simply put, I have to learn how to eat again, which is a weird thing to say when you consider that eating is something at which I used to be really, really good, if quantity counts for anything. Now I take my meals from salad plates with baby utensils. I also drink from a sippy cup and take Flintstones vitamins by the handful. When they say they are taking you back to the beginning on this learning-to-eat business, they’re not kidding. They’re also not kidding when they say that the duodenal switch brings with it a few gastrointestinal side effects, or should I say sound effects, that might give you pause. And I say this as someone who was raised around farm animals. The procedure can make you – there’s no other way to say it – gassy. Not always, but when it happens, it is impressive. And during these times you begin to see the wisdom of our ancestors, who put the Necessary in a little building away from the house. Such a building now might help to cut down on times when family members regard you with annoyance and say, “Do you mind? We can’t hear the television.”

‘Olympics of community theatre’ approaching
By Nina Johnson • editorial@youarecurrent.com Carmel Repertory Theatre will host AACTFest 2013 June 17 – 23 at the Center for the Performing Arts. More than aactfest 2013 7,000 community theaters competed to participate in this national showcase, sponsored by the American Association of Community Theatre. “I quote technical director Keith Matters when I say this is the Olympics of community theatre,” said director Dave Dufour of Elkhart Civic Theatre. When Carmel Repertory reorganized leadership this March, June McCarty Clair volunteered to serve as chairperson and her husband, John, signed up as co-chair. More than 50 local volunteers offered to assist with duties from transportation coordination to talent acquisition. “We have been so gratified at the number of volunteers who have stepped forward and offered to help make this festival a success,” June Clair said. “We will be ready to roll out the red carpet.” AACT Executive Director Julie Crawford expects Carmel’s inaugural year will surpass expectations. “June and John Clair are doing a fabulous job,” she said. For AACT members, the week includes a Community Theatre Management Conference and Director’s Workshops at the Renaissance Hotel. The public is welcome to attend performances and exhibits beginning Wednesday at the Center. Twelve award-winning productions will be performed in the Tarkington Theatre on afternoons and evenings Wednesday through Saturday. One-hundred seats are reserved for the public. Tickets for each block of shows can be purchased through the Center. A stage design competition will be displayed in the Tarkington upper lobby’s Knebel Room. The community is invited to attend Friday night’s free open air concert on the green. “The Friday night event is going to be a talent showcase,” June Clair said. From 5:30 to 6:45 p.m., the concert will offer a variety of routines and live music. Julia Bonnet, first winner of the Michael Feinstein Great American Songbook Competition, will perform. Director of “Cradle & All,” Susan Leslie Edgren, shared Wisconsin Rapids Community Theatre’s excitement about preparing for its first national

competition. “We have tweaked a couple of moments between characters and given certain set pieces a better look,” she said. This Daniel Goldfarb comedy offers two polar perspectives on parenthood. Mary Beth King, director of “Leading Ladies,” explained Minnesota’s Dakota Fine Arts Consortium “rehearsed in five separate spaces, performed in seven different theaters.” This Ken Ludwig farce involves two characters posing as relatives to scramble over inheritance, disguises and romantic predicaments. After polling cast and crew, King said they look forward to many aspects of the event and “celebrating the art that is supported by our diverse hometown communities.” Elkhart Civic Theatre’s Director Dufour described a minimal Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde stage with a rolling red door and special lighting to create a Victorian atmosphere.
“It’s an unusual version,” he said. “There’s actually four different people playing Mr. Hyde.” Dufour explained Elkhart’s last national competition was 10 years ago. Crew practiced stage assembly until they achieved a swift seven minutes. “Competitions require timing restrictions,” he explained. “You’re allowed 10 minutes maximum for set-up and then for take-down.” Ohio director Charles Matthews said the Actor’s Guild of Parkersburg “look forward to making the five and a half hour drive to Carmel.” The troupe is “excited to bring our production of ‘Tuesdays with Morrie’” to the competition as well as “the networking opportunities, workshops and the ability to see community theater at its finest.” AACTFest concludes with a June 23banquet and awards ceremony announcing the 2013 national winners.

A look in the funhouse mirror By Jay Harvey • news@currentinwestfield.com Sometimes, a distorted look at ourselves and what we like to do seems the most enjoyable path toward self-knowledge. theatre Serious critiques can be energizing, but not as much fun as the view in the funhouse mirror. That’s what Off-Main Street Players is up to with its season-ending production of “Amateurs” by Tom Griffin, a 67-year-old playwright best known for “The Boys Next Door,” a 1988 play about men with mental disabilities sharing a group home. “Amateurs” is far different; it takes an amusing look at ambition, drive, hard work and sometimes misdirected dreams in the world of community theater. Director Marcus Waye said that the announcement of auditions produced an unusual amount of interest, probably related to the comedy’s theme: the motivations and varied gifts of volunteer actors and how a drama critic’s sudden health crisis at an opening-night cast party generates soul-searching and exposes the motivations of people drawn to do theater in their spare time. “(‘Amateurs’) piqued a lot of people’s interest,” said Waye, a 40-year-old veteran of the Zionsville all-volunteer company. Many of them had in mind the hit movie spoof of community theater aspirations, “Waiting for Guffman,” which Waye described as
“more cartoonish” than Griffin’s play. “This has a more realistic setting, and a lot of pathos to it,” he said. Still, Griffin “skewers community theater — the archetypes are pretty broad, and he nails them pretty well,” Waye said. Well enough to draw 17 people to audition for nine roles: “It was hard for me to cast this one,” said Waye, who has directed six shows for Off Main Street Players. “Everyone was really good.” The director and company dramaturg, whose day job is in IT at the Carmel Public Library, has been involved with the company since it revived in 2005 with a production of “Plaza Suite,” in which he played a bellhop. Waye’s total for OffMain Street Players amounts to about a dozen shows in various capacities. “I’m learning as I go,” he said. A teachable moment lies at the core of “Amateurs.” The cast’s discovery of the ill critic’s unpublished review “holds a mirror up to their talent level,” Waye said. “It challenges them to question how good they are and why they participate in theater.”

Center has your summer entertainment covered
Commentary by Tania Castroverde Moskalenko In May, the Center for the Performing Arts announced a fabulous new season, packed with world-class artists spanning multiple genres. From classical pianist Lang palladium Lang to country music great Merle Haggard, the 2013-14 season is filled with artists you’ll want to see live and in person. However, announcing the new season is just a part of what’s taking place at the Center in the coming months. We followed the big season announcement with another major addition announcement: the legendary Diana Ross is coming to Carmel! I am absolutely thrilled to welcome Ms. Ross to the Palladium stage on Aug. 23. She is an iconic artist, and I’m delighted that she will kick off the Center for the Performing Arts 2013-14 season. I invite you to become a season subscriber so
that you can enjoy the many benefits available, including the best seats to Diana Ross. Take a look at the 2013-14 season presented by St.Vincent Health online at www.TheCenterPresents.org. As we head into our summer programming, we invite you to start a tradition with your family. Bring your children and grandchildren to see the innovative – and interactive – Erth’s Dinosaurs Petting Zoo (June 13-16). You and your family will marvel at these elaborate puppets and the mastery behind the petting zoo. The family lineup this summer gives you a taste of things to come in our 2013-14 family series – you won’t want to miss a single minute! We encourage you to share these magical moments together, as a family. This month we kick-off our 2013 Encore Celebration Gala Weekend! There will be everything from a gourmet meal, a silent and live auction, to live music, performances, and dancing. Plus, the
Diana Ross to perform at the Palladium editorial@youarecurrent.com Diana Ross will be making her Palladium debut on Aug. 23 at 7:30 p.m. “I am thrilled to welcome Diana Ross to the Palladium stage,” said Tania Castroverde Moskalenko, Center for the Performing Arts president and chief executive officer. “She is an iconic artist, and I’m delighted that she will kick-off the Center for the Performing Arts 2013-14 season.” Tickets for the Diana Ross concert only are available to 2013-14 season subscribers and are available at the Palladium box office or by phone at 8433800.

Information about the 2013-14 season, presented by St.Vincent Health, is available online at www.TheCenterPresents.org. The recording industry icon will perform her greatest hits in a live performance complete with elaborate costumes and dramatic stage lighting. Ross has had a profound influence on American popular culture. She is an Academy Award-nominated actress for her role as Billie Holiday in “Lady Sings The Blues,” a Tony and Golden Globe winner, a bestselling author, winner of eight American Music Awards and a recipient of The Kennedy Center Honors. Ross has sold more than 100 million records and has recorded 18 No. 1 hits. Her music became the sound of young America in the ‘60s, soon after she signed with Motown Records in 1961 with The Supremes. She embarked on her solo career in 1970. Ross was inducted in to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of The Supremes. In 1993, the Guinness Book of World Records declared Ross the most successful female music artist in history due to her success in the United States and United Kingdom for having more hits than any female artist in the charts with a career total of 70 hit singles.

This year we are honoring the contributions of Frank Sinatra, Liza Minnelli, Jimmy Webb and Rita Moreno. Join us June 28 at the Indiana Roof Ballroom and June 29 at The Palladium. As you plan your summer activities, include a visit to the Michael Feinstein Great American Songbook Gallery. The gallery continues its exhibit “Jazz of the ’20s.” Located on the Palladium’s gallery level, this interactive display of memorabilia and recorded music pays homage to the celebrated artists of the jazz age and its place in Indiana history. You will not want to miss this opportunity to discover how music impacted our state and the nation. Visit the gallery on weekdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. In addition, our six resident companies have performances and activities throughout the entire summer months. With all of our offerings you might wonder why you need to leave Carmel at all for your summer vacation! I look forward to welcoming you on your next visit to the Center for the Performing Arts!

If you have been to any races or marathons recently, many runners have begun to wear knee high compression socks or calf sleeves. Why is it beneficial? To understand the benefits of medical grade compression stockings, let’s take a look at the circulatory system. You may recall from biology class that blood circulates through our bodies via a network of veins and arteries. It is a closed system so that blood that is pumped from the heart to the legs must be moved back up the circulatory system to the heart. The calf muscle can actually be considered a “peripheral heart” in that it pumps venous blood against the force of gravity by walking and running. It is well known that compression stockings improve blood flow by helping the calf muscle pump more effectively, which helps keep blood from pooling in the legs. Stockings have been used for years with patients after surgery, to treat leg swelling and for varicose and spider veins. Now, there is growing evidence that athletic compression stockings may reduce muscle pain in the recovery phase (post-event soreness) after a race. Post-event muscle pain can occur for several reasons: lactic acid build-up, micro trauma
at the muscle fiber (myofibril) level, electrolyte depletion and a release of prostaglandins (inflammatory chemicals released during and after exercise). Compression is believed to reduce the muscle pain because they can reduce the myofibril micro trauma and increase the calf muscle pump efficiency, which clears out lactic acid and prostaglandins more effectively. What is less clear is the benefit of wearing them during a race. It is well documented that venous insufficiency is associated with swelling, inflammation and pain, but there are no definitive studies yet that show the benefit of use during the event. We do advise athletes with varicose vein disease to wear compression stockings during events to increase the calf muscle pump function while reducing swelling and venous pooling. For athletes without varicose vein disease, there may be a benefit to wearing athletic compression stockings after an event to help with recovery.

Preparing to have a baby
Commentary by James Smith, MD
Making the decision to have a baby is one of life’s biggest milestones. As anticipation grows, there are steps prospective wellness parents can take to improve the chance of a healthy pregnancy. Couples should schedule a pre-conception appointment with a trusted doctor at least three months before attempting to become pregnant. Issues covered during this appointment may include: • The couple’s medical history including any health conditions, chronic conditions, medications and supplements, and family history of disease • Past pregnancies and any complications, such as Cesarean section, pre-term birth, gestational diabetes or pre-eclampsia (high blood pressure during pregnancy) • Any known history of inherited genetic disease or birth defects – If this is the case for either partner, the doctor may refer the couple to a genetic counselor. • Diet, including weight, recommended nutrition, any food allergies and prenatal vitamins. If a woman is overweight or underweight, it’s generally best to reach an ideal body mass index of between 20 and 25 before becoming pregnant. At least one month before conception, the prospective mother should begin taking a daily prenatal vitamin fortified with at least 0.4 milligrams
of folic acid to help prevent neural tube defects, such as spina bifida, in the newborn. (It’s generally recommended that all women of child-bearing age take folic acid to guard against these conditions should an unintended pregnancy occur.) • If a woman is not already exercising, it’s best to begin regular exercise before becoming pregnant. For most women, exercise can and should continue during pregnancy. Moderate exercise for 20 to 30 minutes on most days of the week is recommended. • If either partner smokes, the doctor can provide guidance on quitting. If alcohol or drug use is an issue, this should also be discussed with the doctor before becoming pregnant. • Birthing preferences, such as whether the couple wants to deliver in a hospital, certified birthing center or at home. Although there is much to consider, it’s important to remember that most women are well suited from both a health and lifestyle standpoint to have a healthy pregnancy.

Flooring center a hometown affair By Chris Bavender • news@currentincarmel.com

A year ago, Adam Nisley was selling flooring out of his minivan. Fast forward and you can find the young entrepreneur now open helping customers in his new store – Adam’s Flooring - on Range Line Road in Carmel. “I’ve been doing installations for 18 years, so the van was my way of starting the sales end of it - I called it my mobile showroom, and I used social media to advertise,” Nisley said. “My motto was ‘I bring the goods to you.’ But I wanted something more permanent and on March 1, we opened the store.” Located in the Shoshone Place Shopping Center, the store is in the space formerly occupied by Coppinger Flooring. Nisley, who grew up in Carmel, knew he wanted to stay local. “I grew up in this neighborhood and still live here,” he said. “My sister lives 20 houses down from me. I watched these buildings go up so, when I saw a For Lease sign in the window, I knew this is where I wanted to open Adam’s Flooring.” Adam’s Flooring features a 900-square-foot showroom with an array of products including carpets and hard-surface flooring.

‘Old-school’ pizzeria opens By Mandi Cheesman • mandi@youarecurrent.com Greek’s Pizzeria is now serving its “old-school style” pizza in Carmel. On May 19, owners Mark Milam, Brett Tipton, Josh Trisler, Charlie Koepnow open pen and Jon Michael Wright opened their second Greek’s Pizzeria at 120 E. Main St. The foursome’s first Greek’s is in Noblesville at 216 S. 10th St. “No one will be able to touch us when it comes to pizza,” Milam said when asked what differentiates him from the other pizza parlors that dot the city. “We are definitely different from the chains because we are mom-and-pop-type pizza.” Although Greek’s Pizzeria is a franchise that was founded in 1969 by franchisor Athanasios Chris Karamesines when he was only 17-yearsold and now includes 14 Indiana locations, Milam explained that each franchisee is in their stores everyday “actually making dough and slicing ingredients. We don’t just call in for sales figures at the end of the day.” The old-school pizzeria is best known for its fresh-baked garlic butter breadsticks, but its menu includes everything from the “old-school pizzas” to sandwiches, pasta and salads. “And we never charge a delivery fee,” Milam said. “We deliver anywhere in Carmel.”

The restaurant also includes a dine-in area, carry-out and $5 lunch specials. Greek’s opens each day at 11 a.m., but Milam said he was still trying to establish the pizzeria’s set hours. “It’s still early, and we are still trying to get a feel for what hours will work best at this location,” he said. “But we are definitely open everyday at 11 a.m.”

Driving safely in cars with dogs
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, canines too) and leaving them in the car when the outside temps are above 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 the desired calm behavior. Be on the lookout for dogs at risk of heatstroke in cars on warm days. Don’t hesitate to call animal protection authorities or the police department if you see a dog suffering from the heat.
Other situations that warrant concern are: • A dog that interferes with the driver’s physical ability to drive the car. A dog sitting on the driver’s lap can interfere with steering. A dog who gets on or under the accelerator or brake pedals, hits the gear shift, or blocks the driver’s view can cause an accident. • A dog who interferes with the driver’s mental ability to drive the car. 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. A loose dog also can fall or jump out of an open window or back of a truck.

Dispatches
• A dog with their head out a window can suffer injury to their eyes from flying debris, or worse, can have their head smashed by objects that pass too close to the car ( other vehicles, mirrors, signs, branches, etc.). • The temperature in a parked car on a warm (not even hot) day can kill a dog. 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. My rule of thumb is if it is above 60 degrees and the sun is shining, I don’t leave Karma in the car. I can leave all the windows open and she will not jump out, however that does not keep someone from taking her out of the car, so I just don’t do it.

Lend, loan or borrow?
Commentary by Jordan Fischer
I had the peculiar fortune of hearing this cringe-worthy statement the other day: “I can’t drive over there right grammar guy now. My boyfriend is loaning my car.” After my ears stopped bleeding, I realized that at least I had my column for this week. The problem we have before us is a person not educated on the difference between the words “loan,” “lend” and “borrow.” Luckily, the Grammar Guy is here to help. Since “loan” and “lend” are similar in many ways, let’s talk about the odd duck out first: “borrow.” To “borrow” something is to take and use something that belongs to someone else with the intention of returning it. That “something” can be money, a possession, or even figuratively the person themselves if you’re drawing them away from their own task. “Borrow” is the other end of lending someone something. I “borrow” your car. You “lend” me your car. “Borrow” always goes on the receiving end of a loan. Now, for “lend” and loan:” “Loan” as a noun is the object being lent or borrowed. In the example above, the car is the loan. You can receive mone-
tary loans to buy a house or go to college, or loans in the form of property, for example a “loaner car” while yours is being repaired. “Loan” can also be used as a verb, however it is only used with concrete nouns: “I will loan you my car.” “Could you loan me $50?” The verb form of “loan” is much more widely used in America than Britain … but since we’re in America, I suppose that’s just fine. “Lend” acts only as a verb, and can be used for concrete or abstract nouns. For example, you could lend someone your car if theirs breaks down. More abstractly, you could lend a co-worker your experience with a problem you’ve faced before. Flowers can lend a room an outdoorsy feel. You get the picture. With “lend” and “loan,” you can always feel confident using “lend” if you need a verb, though “loan” is perfectly acceptable when talking about concrete nouns. As for “borrow,” if it still gives you trouble, remember this: You always borrow “from” someone, never “to” someone. Jordan Fischer is a contributing columnist for Current Publishing.

Invest in well-made, and measured, counter stools Commentary by Vicky Earley
My very first bar stools were a collection of the cap seat stools that can still be found at mass-market discounters and indoors superstore groceries. These soft wood beauties taxed my budget at $20 each, and I can honestly say that I over paid. I don’t, however, regret my time spent with these generics of the decorating world. Because of them, I was able to experience, up-close, personal and first hand, the physics of the barstool and how it must function as a workhorse as well as a design element. First, a barstool or counter stool is made to the height that allows you to reach a kitchen or bar counter. My 24-year-old self was naïve about practicalities so the boxes that I schlepped home in my Ford Pinto contained stools that measured 30 inches in height. My counters were 36 inches high so 30-inch stools would slide under them just fine, right? Wrong! There are some things that we are born knowing, like how to breathe. There are some things that we learn in school, like 36 inches minus 30 inches leaves 6 inches. There are some things that we just have to learn by experience, like the fact that the human leg needs 10 to 12 inches to clear the overhang of the counter.
For printing your a quote next job. on CALL TODAY US
acceptable. The first order of business when selecting stools is to get the height right. Counter stools, approximately 24 inches in height, are meant for use with average kitchen counter overhangs. Bar height, approximately 28 inches high, are intended for bars and raised kitchen counters. Measure the area under your counter and allow 10 to 12 inches for legs. The bases of stools are typically made of wood or metal. The key here is that the wood be hardwood and furniture grade if they are to last. No matter how good they look on day one, cheap stools are destined to behave like the ones I purchased out of naivety. Stools can feature wood seats or be upholstered with fabric or leather. If upholstered stools will be used for meals on a regular basis, consider selecting an indoor/outdoor fabric for ease of cleaning. Leather is easy to wipe off making it a solid choice, as well Stools should be solid enough to hold the weight of a hefty guest and solid enough to resist tipping over while hold a wiggling 6-yearold. Backs and arms give a more secure feel and add a bit of safety for children.
Not wanting to admit my mistake, I spent the next two years doing the bar stool straddle and acting as if it was perfectly normal and

Kitchen footprint change makes positive impact
Commentary by Larry Greene
This 2002 home was built by the current owners before they were an active family. The kitchen that functioned well blueprint for for them at first, now improvement could not keep up with their growing needs. “We have two young children who are always running around,” said the homeowner. “We needed more space.” The family loves the neighborhood, so had no interest in moving. Remodeling was the best option. Original design: A wall that housed a foyer closet and kitchen pantry encroached on the breakfast area, making it tough to fit the family. “There was not enough room,” said the homeowner. “We did not want to expand out the back of the house because we had just invested in a new patio area. We needed a designer to help us figure out how we could get the space we needed without demolishing the whole house.” Design phase: Our designer suggested that the wall with the closet and pantry be removed, and replaced with a spot for the refrigerator and new pantry cabinetry. The family already had a mudroom that could handle the closet items, and the new cabinetry would hold even more than the original closet pantry. This reconfiguration opened up the breakfast nook area, turning it into a full dining space option. Moving the refrigerator also allowed for
Removing a pantry opens up the kitchen and allows for an improved flow and even more cabinet space. (Submitted photos)
additional cabinetry and countertops within the original footprint. With the newly opened kitchen, the homeowners decided to install hand-scraped hardwood floors on the entire first level, enhancing the open feel of the whole space. Trim and bead board were added to the original island to make it look like a piece of furniture.
Final result: “Before, I felt like I was working in half a kitchen,” said the homeowner. “Now I have more space, more countertops and more storage. The design opened up my whole house without changing the square footage. The new pantry cabinets keep us better organized too.”
