Local fisherman to travel cross-country on pro tour By Kourtnee Hamilton • editorial@youarecurrent.com Fishers resident Todd Hollowell will join the nation’s top fisherman this year at the Forrest L. Wood bass fishing tour, where he’ll be representing sponsor Red Gold Tomatoes of Elwood. Every year, 150 professional fishermen enter the four-day tournament in hopes of earning the first place prize: $100,000. After placing sixth at the 2011 EverStart Series, 35-year-old Hollowell, an insurance agent and eight-year Fishers resident, qualified to join the 2012 bass fishing tournament. “For race fans, it is the analogy of a stock car driver qualifying to race at the NASCAR level,” said Hollowell. “It is the highest level of the sport.” The tour will be making stops at various lakes across the nation, including South Carolina, Missouri, Arkansas, Washington D.C., New York, Kentucky and Michigan. The starting event takes place on Wednesday at Lake Hartwell in Greenville, S. C. Tournaments are multiday events in which the participants have the ability to catch as many as five bass within an eight-hour fishing period. Afterward, the pros take their fish to the on-site weigh-in. Whoever caught the most weight determines how each individual finishes for that day. “It’s really about consistency, and being able to have a consistent catch with five bass in each day of competition that will move you up the leader board,” said Hollowell. “If you finish anywhere in the top 50, you are guaranteed at least a $10,000 Bowen to be inducted into Red Cross Hall of Fame – Hamilton County Sheriff and Fishers resident Mark Bowen will be presented Bowen with a Red Cross Hall of Fame award March 14 at the Conrad Indianapolis hotel, 50 W.

Eaton named 2012 Super Lawyer – Fishers resident and Barnes & Thornburg attorney Joseph G. Eaton was announced recently as a 2012 Indiana Super Lawyer. Super Lawyers are selected through a peer-review survey sent to more than 13,000 attorneys, and comprise not more than Eaton 5 percent of licensed attorneys in the state. Eaton practices primarily as a civil litigation defense attorney. Allisonville Road and 96th Street improvements begin in April – Fishers staff and subcontractors will break ground April 1 on improvements to the intersection at Allisonville Road and 96th Street. Construction on the intersection overhaul, which includes tree and utilities relocation and the addition of a “Michigan Left” U-turn lane along both roads, is expected to continue through late November, with all lanes open to traffic by May 2013. More information, and a simulation of the Michigan Left, is available online at www.fishers.in.us.

prize; the goal is to make the top third in the field.” While awaiting the starting tournament date, Hollowell made a connection with Red Gold at their headquarters in Elwood. Late last summer, there were discussions regarding a partnership between the two. At the end of October, an agreement was made, announcing Red Gold as Hollowell’s title sponsor for 2012. During the months of January and February, Hollowell spends time promoting his sponsors. He has been working at boat dealers’ and tackle shop open houses. He spent a weekend at the Indiana Fishing Expo in Franklin, and he spent a few days at the Indianapolis Boat, Sport and Travel Show. “I was really looking for a somewhat local company that could benefit from marketing through me as an angler,” said Hollowell. “We travel all over the nation and everywhere I go, people are going to see the Red Gold boat. It will get them some exposure outside the Indiana area.” Hollowell said he is excited to be working Hollowell with Red Gold. He has received an overwhelming response the first couple of months while showing the Red Gold boat. He has been very proud to be representing them and is looking forward to taking that pride across the nation. “I’m really excited to compete at the highest level of the sport. It has been a dream of mine since I was about 7 years old,” said Hollowell. “I’m pretty sure I learned how to cast before I learned how to ride a bike.”

Jurisprudence

White sentenced to one year of home detention By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Former Secretary of State Charlie White was sentenced to one year of electronic monitored home detention by Hamilton County Superior Court Judge Steve Nation on Feb. 23. White was convicted of six felony charges, including voter fraud, for casting a ballot in a district in which he no longer lived during the May 2010 primary. Nation sentenced White one year for each of six convictions, which will be served concurrently. He also was ordered to pay a $1,000 fine and must serve 30 hours of community service. White can remain free until his appeal. Nation listened to two hours of testimony and arguments before announcing his sentence. He considered White’s actions as intentional and a “breach of trust to the people.” “There is no question in reviewing the (700 pages of) documents that Mr. White consciously planned to show the condo is where he lived … It’s not a mistake, that was an intentional act,” said Nation. “Because of what he did, I believe he violated the trust of the people who voted for him.” A Hamilton County jury convicted White on Feb. 4 for using his ex-wife’s address to vote in the May 2010 primary and continuing to take a salary from the town of Fishers, even though he had moved out of the district he represented on the Town Council. White’s attorney, former Marion County Prosecutor Carl Brizzi, argued

Feedback leads to shift in collegiate high school location Commentary by Dr. Brian Smith For the last several months, we have been attending staff meetings and soliciting community feedback about our vision to accommodate secondary enrollment growth. As a result of valuable suggestions, the collegiate concept remains intact, but we are recommending it be housed differently. Instead of a separate, off-campus school, we are proposing the program be housed within two senior academies (official names to be determined) attached to each of our two high schools. Some key concepts of the senior academy model include providing the following: • a senior academy facility, attached to each high school that will serve all seniors in each school • a program and culture to transition students from a high school setting to a more independent post-secondary learning or work environment • access for grades nine to 11 to advanced courses in the academy, and conversely, access for seniors to electives in main buildings • a less traditional, more college-like atmosphere with flexible spaces for studying or small-group work and student union-like dining areas • a collegiate curriculum option with career pathways and authentic college-credit

courses through major universities, associate degree programs and technical colleges • exploration of expanded student opportunities such as Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, fine arts, music, humanities, advanced manufacturing certification, etc. • wrap-around support services for seniors, even though the overall school is larger, help ensure post-secondary success (34 percent of Indiana students drop out of college after their freshman year) including a focus on important transitional life skills. Examples include establishing a credit rating, managing debt, time management, building a portfolio and networking for career opportunities • a separate facility with its own cafeteria and other services that prevent students from being overwhelmed by a larger overall enrollment and enables more opportunities for personalized supports • an expanded extracurricular program including music, arts and intramural sports Next year, we will shift 100 volunteer students from Hamilton Southeastern High School to Fishers High School. We intend to offer this rebalancing option for the next several years. The goal is to ultimately even up the enrollment between the two high schools without redistricting. We will continue to seek input as we develop

this concept and will continue to communicate as it evolves. Public meetings are scheduled for Monday at 7 p.m. in the FHS auditorium and March 21 at 7 p.m. in the HSEHS auditorium. The presentation panel will include FHS Principal Jason Urban, HSEHS Principal Matt Kegley, Supt. Brian Smith, Chief Financial Officer Mike Reuter and FHS Assistant Principal Valerie Piehl. Dr. Brian Smith is the superintendent of Hamilton Southeastern Schools. He may be reached via the Hamilton Southeastern Schools administration office at 594-4100.

Center aims to help Fishers’ autistic residents By Annie Brackemyre • editorial@youarecurrent.com A new program run by the Behavior Analysis Center for Autism is now available for Fishers residents with autism. The program, named After Hours, began in September for residents ages 7 to 22 who need additional help with social and behavioral skills outside the classroom setting. This stretches to clients with pervasive development disorder and autism. Leah McKenzie, director of the 116th Street BACA location, said, “The community was asking for these services. And we responded.” The genesis of the After Hours program came two years after BACA opened its doors. The center recognized the need for programs outside, and in addition to, school programs. McKenzie explained the goal of the After Hours program is to improve skills parents struggle through with autistic children at home and in the community. Unlike BACA during the daytime, the After Hours program focuses specifically on speaking appropriately and sending clients out into the community. The After Hours program has participated in activities like rock climbing, going to see movies and painting pottery. This offers the clients examples of appropriate social behavior in real-life

scenarios. Cara Jared, consultant at BACA, said, “The goal is to develop better language and social skills. The program helps (clients) either get out of isolation and play more, or helps with (clients) that want to socialize, but are doing so inappropriately.” Activities out in the community teamed with role-playing and peer-mentor relationships are the basis of the After Hours program. Outside of the traditional school hours, the After Hours program is able to facilitate new opportunities and role models like peer mentors to clients. There are three mentors at BACA, ages 12 to 17. They take direct instruction from the clients’ therapists. With specific goals in mind, the mentor helps to develop normal social skills through community outings and playing games. BACA is always accepting new peer-mentor volunteers. The After Hours program is looking to expand the number of clients able to facilitate to all severity levels of autism. BACA is hoping to secure regular groups like Boy and Girl Scouts to visit with more peer mentors. In addition to the After Hours program, BACA is expanding its growing Zionsville location, and has just opened a new center in Elkhart.

Editorial More money to D.C.? Simply a horrible idea

School shooting It is our position that after the Chardon High School shooting, we should take threats made via social media posts seriously. We believe parents/school faculty should invite their children to report any tweets or posts they find threatening to an appropriate figure. Students claim the suspected CHS shooter, T.J. Lane, tweeted ominous messages before the shooting on Feb. 27. Past events show the shooters usually leave some sort of message before their rampage. We just need to be vigilant and we can, hopefully, help prevent these massacres. We are unwavering supporters of freedom of speech, but when the lives of innocent children are at risk, isn’t it our duty to take the appropriate action to see lives are spared? We are in no way asking the government to watch over our tweets or Facebook posts. We ask concerned citizens to report any alarming social media entries to the proper authorities. It’s unfortunate people do not have respect for the gift of life. While hindsight may be 20/20, we can learn from these tragedies and make our schools safer. We urge anyone who sees an alarming post to take the appropriate action to help prevent tragedies like the one at CHS.

Feeding the soul

Commentary by Terry Anker

During the past 100 years or so, we have inverted the percentage of our population directly engaged in agriculture. In fact, about 94 or so out of every 100 Americans then identified their primary occupation as farm or agriculture related. Today, the number would be closer to 4 percent. To be sure, there are a number of very good reasons for the shift – chief amongst them is the advent of technology allowing a single human to produce a previously unimagined a bounty. The ravenous appetite for capital to run a land-based small business is another. And, changing generational expectations, including an incorrect (I believe) assumption that folks who work with hands, as well as mind, are lesser. So, if no one is working in food, why aren’t we starving? Happily, those few who remain are smarter, better educated and more productive than ever before. And on Thursday; we honor them with Agriculture Day. Isn’t it as much to remind us of the origin of our own din-

ners? Yet, these are generous folk. The Legacy Fund of Hamilton County’s Mark Robins says, “Farmers embody many of the attributes we all admire – responsibility, hard work, planning and giving.” He points to a LF initiated program allowing individuals and families, at harvest, to commit a portion of their grain to philanthropy. “Several farmers have created their own charitable accounts with LF. We work closely with them as they give back to the community they believe has given them so much.” Aren’t we getting the better part of this bargain? If they stopped working, how many of us would starve? Whether with corn chips or tasty bacon, isn't their generosity the ultimate way they manage to feed all of us? If you are full, remember to thank a farmer. And if you feel abundance, call LF.

“I am glad that I paid so little attention to good advice; had I abided by it I might have been saved from some of my most valuable mistakes.” – Edna St. Vincent Millay, 20th century Pulitzer Prize winning poet, playwright and feminist Current in Fishers

As we follow the political theater (nightmarish as it is) that’s unfolding during the primaries and President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign, we’re often stunned the issue of increasing taxes on the wealthy (as defined by the left) appears to center on the arbitrary number of $250,000 for joint tax filers. We believe the real point is being lost in all the rhetoric. Consider: Not a day goes by when we don’t learn of massive fraud and incompetence by our government, the best recent example of which was last week’s revealing of $325 million in Medicare fraud in Texas. We just don’t know how, on any level, anyone can make a case for sending more money to Washington, knowing our federal government’s putrid record for stewardship of our tax money. It will waste the money from the rich just as it wastes the money from the rest of us. So, we ask again: How does it make sense to send one additional penny to the geniuses inside the Beltway? Where is the logic in that? ••• The so-called party of less government, less intrusion and fewer taxes, while in control of both houses and the governor’s office, should have done away with this from Minute One. Indiana is one of 22 states that impose an estate or inheritance tax (or death tax) on its residents. The House has passed the measure to abolish the tax, and as of press time, it was in the Senate’s hands. All that would be left would be for Gov. Mitch Daniels to sign it into law. That would end the punishment of Hoosier families. We hope they’ll do the right thing.

‘Tis the season: Taxes Commentary by Danielle Wilson I, being the frugal know-it-all, decided that instead of paying a certified public accountant my hard-earned dough, I would do the taxes myself. How hard could it be? I’m a math teacher after all, and I’d be saving us something like $600. That was my recent weekend, and here again I slouch, having just spent another four hours oscillating between pulling my hair out and stymieing the urge to drink heavily. (Unfortunately, it’s Lent and I gave up drinking heavily!) Why does filling out a tax return, an annual exercise required of every working American, feel like a combined final exam for forensic criminology and Advanced Placement statistics? Seriously, my desk looks like I’ve just pulled an all-nighter cramming for my dissertation defense with files and folders and fiber bar wrappers and half-emptied cups of stale coffee. Is that a can of Skoal? Oh sweet mercy, I am losing my fashizite! And I’m nowhere near being finished. Even scarier, I honestly don’t even know if I’m doing this correctly. Sure, Turbo Tax walks you through the process step by step, but reconciling what’s on my computer screen with my personal paper jungle of a year’s worth of receipts and forms is a whole

‘nother can of worms. Worst of all, I have a very pronounced “Taxes Owed” in red mocking my every input from the top of the screen. Even after I enter charitable deductions, Doo’s work expenses and individual retirement account contributions, the obnoxious number does not shrink. WHY DOESN’T IT SHRINK? I did make one important discover yesterday, which hopefully will put a dent in that awful figure. Our mortgage company has not sent us a form 1098 for interest paid in 2011 (that’s probably a lie; the form may very well be lying on my desk, perhaps under the Skoal?), and apparently, that’s a huge deduction. So there is hope we won’t end up in a debtor’s prison or on our way to Finland to evade taxes. But I’m not a CPA with years of experience; I am most certainly missing a couple of exemptions and deductions and maybe even a rollover or two. So yes, I might be saving Doo and I some cash, but how much would our CPA have saved us in taxes due? In emotional distress? Whose stupid idea was this anyway? Peace out.

Using my senses Laughs by Dick Wolfsie

I’m a sucker for bookstores. My newest book purchase is “Keep Your Brain Alive: 83 Neurobic Exercises.” For a fathead like me, this is the perfect read. The author contends there is not enough unpredictability in our lives. We get into a rut because our brains take the easiest paths – the routes we are most accustomed to. Dr. Lawrence Katz throws in some cerebral references to axons, dendrites and synapses to make it all sound very scientific, but it was lost on me. After all, I flunked biology. This book encourages you to use each of your senses in new and innovative ways. One of the author’s suggestions is to brush your teeth with your nondominant hand, thus creating some new neural pathways. I tried it one night and found the experience enlightening. I then used my other hand to clean the toothpaste out of my nose. In order to enhance your appreciation for good food, insert earplugs and maintain silence for the entire time you are having dinner. This permits you to fully relish what is on your palate. I tried this for almost a week before my wife noticed anything out of the ordinary. Another exercise is to hold your nose when you put food in your mouth so you can focus on its texture. That normally would have really ticked off Mary

For another experience, change cars with your neighbor for a day. Have the thrill of handling a different kind of vehicle, maybe an SUV or a minivan. Of course, if you forget to tell the guy next door before you do this, you can then look forward to a new tactile experience: having your hands cuffed behind your back. My favorite suggestion is to eliminate the traditional grocery list. Instead of jotting down the name of each item, write a description instead so you can fully appreciate its qualities. “It’s about the size and shape of a small soccer ball, tannish, heavily veined and dimpled on one end,” is one example provided by the author. I think he’s talking about a cantaloupe, yet it also sounds like my brain or my rear end. But it couldn’t be my brain. After reading this entire book, I’m sure I’ve lost my mind.

Chest pain due to CAD Health by Dr. Blair MacPhail

Chest pain due to coronary artery disease is a very individualized symptom. Some people experience the typical pressure in the midsubsternal area of the chest radiating to the jaw, arms, throat or back, and may be associated with shortness of breath, nausea and vomiting or sweating. Others may have less typical symptoms or nonspecific subtle symptoms, such as extreme fatigue. This is referred to as “silent” CAD and is less common. Women tend to have less typical types of chest pain that involve the back. Risk factors for CAD include diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, family history and tobacco abuse. Modify these risk factors by quitting smoking. Help prevent the development of CAD by aggressively reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (through medicine such as statins), exercise and controlling hypertension and diabetes. CAD can present suddenly such as a heart attack, or more slowly, sometimes starting as a symptom with exercise or activity relieved by rest. If someone develops a sudden persistent

chest pain, or associated symptoms, we recommend going to the emergency room of a nearby hospital to obtain a history/physical, electrocardiogram and blood work to rule out a heart attack. Intermittent forms of chest pain or other symptoms can be evaluated with a history/physical and a variety of screening tests. These may include a treadmill testing, or a form of cardiac exercise with intravenous medicine. We often use echocardiogram or nuclear scan to image the heart before and after exercise (or IV infusion of medicine) to make the stress test more accurate. CAD is a common problem and can be prevented in many people. If you are having chest pain symptoms, go for an evaluation. To help prevent CAD, get your cholesterol checked, don’t smoke, maintain a healthy weight/blood pressure and perform some form of aerobic exercise four times a week.

Accomplishment

Move the needle: Vision Commentary by CJ McClanahan

On May 25, 1961, before a joint session of Congress, President John F. Kennedy made the following proclamation: “I believe this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth. No single space project in this period will be more impressive to mankind or more important for the long-range exploration of space; and none will be so difficult or expensive to accomplish.” This bold statement created a powerful vision that inspired not only the space program, but an entire nation. During the next eight years, we did whatever it took to accomplish a goal that, at one point in the not-so-distant past, seemed impossible. Because the vision was so clear, powerful and world changing, failure was simply not an option. If you’re interested in getting maximum productivity and innovation out of your most valuable asset (your team), you need to create a compelling vision. This vision has to be more than a revenue target or number of units sold. It has to be something that triggers an emotional response and leads to inspired behavior. Getting your team excited about a goal is a critical component to building a competitive advantage in today’s marketplace.

21st Century Divorce and Custody Battles Advertisement

First, remember you need to build this vision upon the foundation of a meaningful purpose. A vision without purpose may get your employees fired up for a day or even a week, but they’ll eventually lose steam and wonder, “Why again am I working so hard?” Second, ask your team to brainstorm the following question – “What do you want the marketplace (customers, prospects and competitors) to say about our company?” Team members’ answers will provide you with some insight as to what is really important to your people. For example, a law firm’s employees might indicate they want to have a national presence or desire to be recognized as having the most community leaders. Finally, any vision you lay out for the future of your organization must be measurable and have a time limit. Kennedy didn’t say he wanted to have a better space program sometime in the coming years. He said he wanted a man on the moon within a decade. Similarly, you need to set a specific goal so the team can measure its progress. As with most things in life, the solution is simple. All you need to do is execute. “Move the needle” is a regular column by author, speaker and trainer, CJ McClanahan. To learn more about CJ, please visit www.goreachmore.com or call 576-8492.

Communicating with your former (or soon-to be former) spouse can be difficult. Emotions and disputes often make civil conversations difficult. However, it’s easier than ever to communicate without ever even speaking. Between email, social media and texting, we can now have a dialogue with pretty much anyone and never have to see them in person. On the reverse side of that, emails, social media and texts can be used to enhance or detract from your case in a divorce or custody battle.

Attorney Clarissa Finnell, a seasoned attorney who practices exclusively in the area of family law, explains that using electronic substantiation has become prevalent in her family law cases. Finnell explains, “Often times, a client comes in with emails or text messages to be submitted to the court to prove the spouse participating in inappropriate behavior, infidelity etc.” However, Finnell also warns that this very same documentation can also be used against the client. Finnell gives several tips on how to use technology in your favor for your divorce or custody dispute. • Limit communication. Do not engage in or reply to any communication unless it’s directly related to the children. Communication should be limited to information about children’s well-being, parenting time, education etc. This includes texts, emails and online private messages. • Communication is important. While limiting communication is important, it’s also important not to withhold child-related information. • Communicate via documented channels. Conversations over the phone can’t be documented. Emails and texts are much easier to submit to the court. Establish a preferred method to communicate with your ex-spouse and keep all communications, when possible, through this method. • Save any emails, texts, Facebook posts or any other information you would like to submit to the court, but keep in mind that your ex-spouse can do the same. This is why it is important to abstain from any communication that isn’t informational or about the children. • Do not post anything online that you wouldn’t want the court to see. Anything you post online including your status updates, pictures and even jobs you apply for can be used in court. This also includes information and pictures of your children. We face an entirely new world in the 21st Century filled with great technological advances that can be very helpful to limit disputes in custody or divorce disputes. The finger-pointing of “he-said/she-said” in court will always be there, but it’s now much easier to substantiate these claims with electronic back-up. If you are interested in assistance with your divorce or custody situation, please contact HARDEN JACKSON LLC at 317-569-0770 or www.hardenjacksonlaw.com.

Top Dow dividend stocks

Kraft Foods (KFT) – Shares of the packaged food giant are up about 20 percent in the past 12 months. Investors have warmly received Kraft’s plan to create value by splitting itself into two companies, one a $35 billion global snacks company and the other an $18 billion North American grocery business. There is no firm date for the split, but it should happen in the next year or so. Intel (INTC) – Tech stocks aren’t exactly a bastion of big dividends. But mature semiconductor company Intel has been paying dividends since 1992, and has been increasing its dividend in recent years. You might think Intel shares would be struggling, given the weakness in consumer and business spending and the rise of tablets that use processors from rival chipmakers. But Intel posted big gains in 2011, thanks to impressive baseline demand for high-tech

Is China’s Baidu better than Google? – Baidu is often referred to as China's Google. That might be insulting to Baidu. Baidu (BIDU) is the market share leader in online search in China. Its lead over Google (GOOG) there is much larger than the lead Google enjoys over rivals Microsoft and Yahoo in the U.S. Baidu's market share in the fourth quarter was 78.3 percent, according to data from Beijing-based research firm Analysys International. Google's market share was only 16.7 percent. (In the U.S., Google has a slightly better than 50-percentage point lead over Microsoft and Yahoo, based on the latest rankings from comScore.) Of course, Google is at a disadvantage because it has willingly cut back on its presence in China due to concerns over censorship by the Chinese government. Still, Baidu appears to have far more growth potential than Google at this point. The question is whether the stock price already reflects that. Right now, it does not look like Baidu is too expensive. - www. money.cnn.

Intel saw fiscal 2011 revenue increase 24 percent from the previous year as profits increased 17 percent. DuPont (DD) – Shares of DuPont lagged the market in 2011 with an 8 percent decline. However, it has more than made up for that loss with a surge of 12 percent right out of the gate in 2012 – easily double the broader market’s advance. Dividend investors in for the long term know the staying power of DuPont. The company has paid dividends for more than 100 years and is a stable industrial giant that isn’t going anywhere. In fact, DuPont could be a good investment for the inevitable economic recovery, because even if there is a rough market for another year or two, DuPont will hang tough and pay a decent dividend while you wait. -www.money.msn.com A CEO’s mannerisms can reveal lies – A chief executive’s phone manner can reveal fibs about company results. All it takes is a shaky delivery or uneven tone during an earnings call, new research suggests. They are among the tip-offs a boss is being economical with the truth. The evidence isn’t reliable enough to land anyone in jail. But for investors seeking an edge, it may pay to listen closely. Investment research firms like Boston-based Business Intelligence Advisors use former CIA types to listen for deception on company conference calls. And, several studies have found the absence of personal pronouns and other word patterns can reveal when an executive may be reporting dodgy numbers. But even nonverbal signals, like varying pitch, can be a dead giveaway, according to a study by accounting professors at Duke University and the University of Illinois. The authors fed tapes from thousands of quarterly earnings calls through software that searches voices for cues linked with lying. It turns out the calls containing the most cues involved companies with financial statements that later had to be restated. - www.nyt.com

Religion

When did bold Christianity become bully Christianity? Spirituality by Mike Colaw I think it’s so interesting how our wonderful religious freedom has developed an unintended long-term consequence. Now, I love this freedom! It is truly what defines us as a people and culture. The consequence is some Christians now believe our beliefs should also be a legal requirement for others as well, and their method to attain control is harsh and condemning. Imagine a missionary, only this one looks like Rambo. He sports a machine gun, massive muscles and fights like a ninja. Oh yeah, and he is a Christian, too. Pretend this guy goes from city to city with his brute force and makes everyone act like him. He then creates laws that force people to worship just like he does. Is this evangelism? Well, actually no, he may have forced people into a behavior, but he doesn’t have their hearts. Sound familiar? It should. Religions all around the world do this. Christians can even fall into this when confidence in Christ’s ability to change someone’s heart turns to fear they will lose social control. Here is the catch. God doesn’t want just social order, which is important; he wants the hearts of the people. Remember, Christ came as a baby boy, not a spiritual Rambo forcing all to obey. There are many Christians who don’t understand they are unintentionally acting just like the Pharisees they speak against. So why does this happen?

ARE YOU STRESSED OUT BY YOUR BUSINESS?

These people value what they believe works for the state, or organization, over its individuals. C.S. Lewis says it like this: “If individuals live only 70 years, a state, or a nation, or a civilization, which may last for 1,000 years, is more important than the individual. But if Christianity is true, then the individual is not only more important, but incomparably more important, for he is everlasting and the life of a state or a civilization, compared with his, is only a moment.” So here is the bottom line. If we, as Christians, fought for the hearts of people as much as we fight for Biblical control, we would look more like Christ intended us to. Standing for truth is important, but we must never forget our method of doing so is important as well. Actually, Jesus says it best (Matthew 23:23 New International Version): “… You have neglected the more important matters of the law: justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.”

Tools and tips for tweeting Social Media by Ken Colburn

I attended your Twitter for Business 101 workshop and you mentioned tools that help you understand the best time to post tweets. What are they and how do they work? - RD Before I (@TheDataDoc) go into the specific tools that allow you to be more strategic about when you tweet, let’s do a quick review. In my workshops, I stress the three keys to being successful in social communications: listen, engage and measure. Twitter has become the first place just about anything that happens in the world is first reported, making it a great resource for “listening” to what is happening in virtually any industry, or what others are saying about your business. Applications like Flipboard for the iPad and iPhone, for instance, convert tweets into a display that mimics magazines and newspapers, making the information you seek show up in an easily digestible form for us old timers. Frequency of your tweets is nearly as important as timing your tweets. I’ve tested a lot of the free and pay tools that do an excellent job including, Whentotweet, TweetStats and Tweriod, but one in particular I find exceptionally useful. I really like the combination of features in a tool called Timely, especially for those struggling with the time element of social media.

18 | March 6, 2012

Timely will quickly analyze your past tweets to help you understand the best times of the day to post, but then it goes one step further; it allows you to start queuing posts for both Twitter and Facebook based on the times it determined are best for your followers. You can also track the performance of your posts with the built-in analytics, so you can understand the type of content that strikes a chord with your followers. The best feature of this tool set is the ability to add a “Create a Timely” to your Web browser’s bookmark bar, which allows you to quickly add relevant information to your queue as you are surfing the Internet. If you aren’t able to sit down once a week and schedule out your Twitter and Facebook posts, you can use this tool to simply add posts to your queue as you come across information you want to share. If you just keep adding relevant information to your queue, you can efficiently start to build a following because it will automatically keep posting at the best times; it even alerts you when your queue is empty!

Travelocity tops Expedia – A new American Consumer Satisfaction Index report focusing on Expedia, Orbitz, Priceline and Travelocity rated overall satisfaction with the sites at 78 on a 100-point scale last year, matching the record high set the year before. While the aggregate score was unchanged, individual results showed more fluctuation. After nine years in the top spot, Expedia decreased 3 percent, from 79 points to 77, losing its crown to Travelocity, which increased from 77 to 79. Orbitz and Priceline also posted better numbers, increasing from 75 to 76 and 73 to 76, respectively. -www.travelkit.msnbc.com Sheen returning to TV – Charlie Sheen will return to TV this summer. FX’s “Anger Management” will air on Thursday nights starting June 28. The show will be part of the network’s new comedy block. Here’s how it works: Sheen’s “Anger Management” will air in the 9 p.m. hour, with originals typically airing at 9:30 p.m. and last week’s episode running at 9 p.m. (except during premiere week, when originals will air in both slots). Ten episodes have been ordered, with an additional 90-episode pickup contingent on hitting a certain ratings benchmark. In recent weeks, the show has added Selma Blair, Shawnee Smith, Daniela Bobadilla, Michael Arden and Noureen DeWulf to the cast. -www.ew.com

Shedding some light size Decorating by Vicky Earley Ahhh … if only we could tap into a nice, neat formula to ensure our decorating endeavors would be a smashing hit. The size of the dining room chandelier begs on its hands and knees for such a formula. After all, it is simple geometry, right? Well, sort of. When a client asks for such a formula, we supply them with the basics: In general, the dining room fixture should have a diameter half the diameter of the tabletop. For instance, if the table were a rectangle of 48 inches wide by 72 inches long, a 24-inch diameter would be perfect. If the table were a 60-inch round diameter, a 30inch diameter chandelier would work. In most cases, I advise clients to err on the larger size since a “too small” fixture can ruin the look of the room. The height of the actual chandelier is usually determined by the ceiling height of the room. We follow the rule of allowing 2 1/2 inches to 3 inches for each foot of height. Using this formula, a room with an 8-foot ceiling can use a chandelier approximately 20 inches to 24 inches in height. If the ceiling is 10 feet

high, then a light fixture 25 inches to 30 inches would look more appropriate. Just when you thought your decorating life would be easier, keep in mind these are just guidelines … not hard rules! Consider the style and density of the fixture in question, and you can push those guidelines aside. There is still the subjective element that insists on having a say! For instance, if a fixture is heavy visually with an abundance of crystal or metal, it might work better if the fixture is on the smaller side. A visually light chandelier can be a little wider in diameter. Don’t forget to be present when the perfect fixture is installed. Although the rule of thumb for distance from table to fixture is approximately 30 inches, there is nothing like a human eye to make the final decision. A few chain links can make a huge difference.

INSIDE & OUT

Indoors

Creating office/closet from unfinished attic space Remodling by Larry Greene Original attic: This Indianapolis home was built in 1994, and the owners have lived in the home for six years. As their family was expanding and their needs were changing, they began to think about the need for additional space. They needed a third bedroom and an office. According to the husband, “We have a three-bedroom house and I work from home. My wife is expecting our second child at the end of March, and we had to decide to either move or remodel.” Remodeling versus moving: The homeowners weighed the pros and cons of moving versus remodeling. One noted, “We added up the costs of moving, including realtor fees, repairs, moving costs etc., which turned out to be a significant amount of money. We then used that as our starting budget for the attic remodel. We went a little bit over, but we were able to stay in our home. We like the location and the neighbors.” Structural considerations: A structural engineer required beefing up the existing floor system by adding support to the floor joists. In addition, the design required extra foundation

support in the crawl space, including new footings, piers and a large beam to support the new attic loading. This allowed a new stairway from the new attic space with oak balusters and oak handrail. Final results: The owners noted, “The construction blends well with the home. If you were to come in for the first time now, you would never know the attic addition was new. I was able to work with the designers to come up with not only a plan for future needs, but a design that served my business needs. I needed a large closet to store my samples. We placed the closet over our master bathroom so the space could be easily changed into a bathroom if we ever had a need for another bedroom suite. I also really like I have electrical outlets, so I don’t have cords running all over, and my office is removed from the house, so work does not influence family life.” Larry Greene is the president of Case Design/Remodeling, a full-service design/build firm serving Hamilton County.
