Whole Foods backs out By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com Whole Foods Market will not be taking up residence at the Arbor Village site, on the southeast corner of 116th Street and Hoosier Road. “Whole Foods decided that they are at this time no longer interested in moving forward on the project at 116th Street and Hoosier Road in Fishers,” Scott Fadness, town manager, said. Shirley Triller, vice president of the Lake Stonebridge Homeowners’ Association, said the people she represents were disappointed the store backed out. She said Whole Foods would have been a good anchor for the commercial site and would have helped attract other high-quality businesses. At the March 4 Fishers Town Council meeting, a request for curb cuts and a new traffic light for the site went before the council. Residents, including Triller, for and against Whole Foods moving onto the site were there to voice their opinions. The council wanted to have more dialogue with the petitioner, real estate company HDG Mansur, because the site originally was intended to be pedestrian-friendly.

Before the request returned for a council vote, Marsh Supermarkets CEO Tom O’Boyle spoke to the council at the March 11 work session, voicing concern for his stores and headquarters in town if Whole Foods moved in, according to local blogger and Current columnist Larry Lannan’s blog, LarryinFishers.com. O’Boyle was unavailable to comment about Whole Foods' latest announcement before press time. Fadness said the town does not know the exact reasoning for Whole Foods backing out. Bob Echols, head of residential development at HDG Mansur, said no specific reason was given by Whole Foods. He said the company’s executive committee made a motion to pass on the site and it passed, adding that further reasoning would be “speculation.” Echols said HDG Mansur was shocked that Whole Foods terminated the site. “Any time a business chooses not to proceed with locating here, we are concerned about that,” Fadness said. “We will continue to maintain the dialogue with them to make sure they know that the door is open if they ever want to come back to the community.”

The much anticipated revisions to the Indiana Parenting Time Guidelines (IPTG) took effect on March 1, 2013. These are the guidelines in which judges base their custody and parenting time decisions. Below are some answers to FAQ:

How will the new guidelines affect my current parenting time schedule? If you currently have a court order to follow the IPTG, then the new guidelines will have no affect on your parenting time. The new IPTG will only apply to new orders of parenting time or those taking effect on or after March 1, 2013. However, if your current order with respect to parenting time or custody is modified by the Court in the future; the new IPTG will likely be implemented at that time.

Be ready for summer by shedding those hard-to-lose pounds and inches. You can do it by summer!

Can I move to modify my current order to implement the new IPTG? No, you cannot file a motion with the court for the sole purpose of implementing the new IPTG. However, parents are not prevented from agreeing to follow the revised IPTG. If both parents agree that they wish to follow the new IPTG, they must put their agreement in writing and file with the court for approval. Otherwise, the agreement will not be enforceable. How do the new IPTG differ from the current IPTG? There have been no changes to the weekly schedule of parenting time. The main changes are with respect to the holiday and special day schedules. Under the current IPTG there are no provisions for dividing Martin Luther King, Jr. Day weekend, President’s Day weekend or fall break. The new IPTG have added these as holidays to be alternated between the parents. Under the new IPTG, Christmas break and New Year’s holiday have been consolidated into one holiday and divided equally. Under the current IPTG they are two separate holidays. The revised IPTG give additional guidance regarding division of breaks for children attending schools with year round or balanced calendars. The current IPTG divide all breaks equally between the parties but neglect to assign which parent receives which half. The revised IPTG alternate the first half and second half of the breaks from year to year.

Tired of just treating symptoms and taking a lot of prescription drugs? Why not look to natural medicine and God’s pharmacy for answers and reduce or eliminate prescription drugs. Men, women and children.

SPECIALS FOR CURRENT READERS: FREE BODY SCULPTING with every HCG weightloss package

The revised IPTG no longer include the provision preventing either party from exercising three weekends in a row due to holiday parenting time. The revised IPTG allow the parties to maintain alternating weekends throughout the year. Holidays still take precedence over regular weekend parenting time. Additionally, there have been some clarifications with respect to the opportunity for additional parenting time (Right of First Refusal). This provision states that when a parent requires childcare by someone other than a family member, that they must offer this time to the other parent first. The revised IPTG provide further guidance regarding the definition of “family member” with the term “responsible household” family member being added to the guidelines. The commentary defines household family member as “an adult person residing in the household, who is related to the child by blood, marriage or adoption.”

New features at Conner Prairie By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com Conner Prairie Interactive History Park opened to the public last week, and with the opening came two new features that can be accessed with general admission. One, the Nature Walk, gives patrons a bigger look at the actual land the park covers. According to Gail Brown, program developer at Conner Prairie, the Smithsonian Affiliate has more than 800 acres, but only about 200 are in use. “We really wanted to try to find a way to let people explore some of these other spaces because we have such great habitat(s) and beautiful scenery around the park,” Brown said. The Nature Walk also will tie in how humans have impacted Conner Prairie’s environment, as well as how people use and view nature around them, Brown said. The trail is .64 miles long, roundtrip. Brown said further expansion is a possibility, but nothing is planned. The Nature Walk will serve as a test of that concept. Also new this spring is Create.Connect. It’s geared toward kids ages 8 to 13. “We’ve been working with the Science Museum of Minnesota to create this very hands-on, kind of creative space that’s going to combine science and history,” Brown said. Create.Connect focuses on science, technol-

ogy, engineering and mathematics, allowing guests to “put the hat of an engineer on,” according to Brown. Three components, wind power, rural electrification and forces in motion, make up the overall experience. Wind power features a more than 100-yearold Hoosier-made windmill, with participants making their own miniature windmills. Rural electrification features experimenting by building circuits with components like switches and LEDs. Lastly, Conner Prairie partnered with Purdue University and its Rube Goldberg Machine Contest for forces in motion, where visitors construct their own Rube Goldberg device that accomplishes a simple task with multiple steps.

Become informed and vote Commentary by Larry Lannan In 2011, I attended a Fishers Town Council candidate forum before the May primary to get a feel for local issues. The candidates talked about all the usual local municipal issues. What grabbed my attention was the amount of discussion centered on the local schools. Nearly every candidate made it clear she/he would ensure close cooperation and support between the Town of Fishers and the Hamilton Southeastern School District. Why all the talk about schools? After all, these candidates were running for town council seats, not the school board. Then it dawned on me how much schools are at the center of Fishers and its massive growth for the past 25 years. Talk to any real estate agent and you will know how much the quality of our local school system attracts families with children into a Fishers home. All of this came to mind as the local debate begins over the next Fishers school referendum. This one asks voters to approve a $95-million building project, most of the money going to senior academies at both HSE and Fishers High Schools. This will be funded by a local property tax increase. How much will your taxes go up? Good question. Getting a specific answer may be difficult. If Albert Einstein were alive today, he

would find it hard to fully understand Indiana’s property tax system. At a recent meeting, school officials indicated homes valued more than $230,000 could see an annual increase of $159 to $282. For these homeowners, that would hike their monthly escrow for property tax from $13.25 to $23.50. Will local voters approve such a tax hike? After all, Fishers voters have easily approved such plebiscites in recent years. The school system has been making its case to the local community that the senior academies will strengthen an already strong school system and allow for a bulge in enrollment coming up the line to high school. Supt. Dr. Brian Smith has made one thing clear: Without the $95-million upgrade, the only way to handle the additional students it so bring in trailers. I don’t know if you have ever known a student taking a class in one of these trailers. Trust me, it is not a good experience for the student or teacher and should be avoided As we move closer to election day, I have two pieces of advice for all voters in Fishers. First, become familiar with all the issues. Second, vote on May 7.

Audience is the best part By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com For Kevin Shadle, the best part of stage-acting is the interactive dynamic between the audience and actor. He said the reaction and interplay with the audience is his favorite part of being in local productions, as well as entertaining and making them laugh. “The thing (dynamic) between an actor on stage and the audience off stage, it’s a whole different thing from going to the movies,” Shadle said. Shadle, a Fishers resident of about 23 years, is performing in a four-person play called “Moon Over the Brewery” at the Longstreet Playhouse, 4998 N. County Road 100 E., Danville, this weekend, which is the last weekend for the performance. A romantic comedy, “Moon Over the Brewery” is a coming of age story about a girl, Amanda, who makes up her own imaginary friend, Randolph, and tries to stop Warren, Shadle’s character, from dating her mother, Miriam, according to www.hendrickscivic.com. Warren eventually thwarts Amanda and the imaginary Randolph. It’s a coming-of-age story that Shadle said anyone can enjoy, as well as take something away from. It might be the last weekend of “Moon Over the Brewery,” but it’s not Shadle’s last show. He has a part in an upcoming perfor-

mance with the Westfield Playhouse, “Monky Business.” Shadle has performed in several productions all around the region, including “Big River” with Footlite Musicals, “Titanic the Musical” with The Belfry Theatre, and others. Shadle got into acting after retiring from Eli Lilly. He saw a public service announcement calling for adults interested in taking acting classes and gave it a try. A teacher had an opening in a play and invited Shadle to take a role after an actor quit in the middle of rehearsal, giving him his start. Catch “Moon Over the Brewery” Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 2:30 p.m. Tickets are $12 for adults (ages 19 to 61) and $10 for seniors and youth.

COMMUNITY Cover Story

Robanne Robin uses dance to teach kids to be strong By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com Robanne Robin’s heart pounded in her chest like a jackhammer as she spoke with her coworkers. It was the second time she had that feeling. Then she sat in a hospital bed after suffering a severely high pulse. The latest incident was three years ago, when she weighed 300 pounds. While an intravenous bag dripped fluids into her body, she cried and at the same time she had a moment of clarity. She knew she had to make a change in her life. By that point, Robin already had experienced a decade-long bout with anorexia and bulimia and was raising three children with her husband, Ray. What she didn’t know was that her weightloss journey would take her to a dance floor and a mission to help kids enjoy exercise and develop positive body images.

New choreography

Constantly struggling to keep weight off, Robin sought a doctor’s advice to help turn her life around before diabetes could take hold. Robin investigated gastric bypass surgery after the doctor nudged her in that direction, a direction he saw as a measure that could produce drastic changes. Robin said she couldn’t participate in the life happening around her. She picked the surgery, a path so extreme she admits it could hurt individuals if done incorrectly. “The good thing about being that desperate and that, I don’t know, let’s say hopeless, is that I was I was willing to do everything they told me to do, follow all the rules, including exercise,” she said. She would eventually chronicle her experience in a book, “Half My Size!: One woman’s road to losing 150 pounds and getting her STRONG on!” It was a little bit embarrassing to dive into personal matters, but the thought of others going through the same thing outweighed her www.currentinfishers.com

embarrassment, she said. “I bet you there’s a few teenage girls out there that are doing the same exact crap I was doing,” Robin said, referring to her past anorexia and bulimia. “And maybe they can take something away from that that they don’t have to treat their bodies that way.” Robin said a person relearns how to eat after gastric bypass surgery, starting with things like chicken broth and pureed black pinto beans. She started seeing results. While standing on a treadmill, she realized she had lost 30 pounds. While working toward those results at the Fishers YMCA, friends suggested she try out a class called Hip Hop Hustle. It’s now a part of her life four times per week. “You almost have to look up and you’re into it 45 minutes, and you can’t even believe it’s almost over,” she said. Knowing what it was like to not want to exercise as a child and adult, Robin got the idea to teach a hip hop class to kids at the Fishers YMCA as a fun exercise program. After getting certified to teach it, the class grew, and starting this month, she will teach nine sessions to youth.

Strong, not skinny

“If I can get them excited to come back to the gym and go to this class, I’m loving it,” Robin said. The core of the class might be dancing to songs like Usher’s “Yeah” and the Black Eyed Peas’ “Boom Boom Pow” (a clean version, which according to Robin, was nearly impossible to find), but Robin takes time out to talk about her own philosophy – “strong is the new skinny,” meaning being strong and healthy is more important than a person’s weight, espe-

cially when kids hold themselves to unreasonable standards. She said weight doesn’t determine whether or not a person is healthy. Drew Goins, 10, said his favorite part of the class is that he can gain a lot of strength from it. “Before I came to hip hop, I thought I was overweight,” Kaira Wells, 9, said. “People kept making fun of me, and ever since I came back to hip hop, everyone’s been encouraging me and seeing how strong I got, and I feel happy about it.” A recent TV segment showed some of her students raising their hands when asked whether they thought they were overweight. She said it was almost heartbreaking to see and that being concerned with numbers on a scale can get people in trouble. “I hope I can influence them to maybe have a different perspective on that,” she said. “Just rethink fitness isn’t just size and weight.” After losing the weight and getting healthy, she said she felt like she won the lottery. With a passion for hip hop and helping kids, she won more than her life back.

VIEWS Opinion

It’s a real plum for the Palladium Follow the North Star It is our position that Conner Prairie Interactive History Park’s Follow The North Star is a powerful learning experience in diversity that should not be missed, especially for history enthusiasts. This nationally-acclaimed, award-winning special program transcends books and movies by transforming participants into the role of a fugitive slave on the Underground Railroad, fleeing from captivity and risking everything for freedom. Since 1998, nearly 60,000 people have participated in this program that is only offered during the months of April and November. As with all of Conner Prairie’s interactive programs, this period in history is flawlessly recreated, complete with a mock slave auction, a chance to escape into the dark woods, the bone-chilling fear of being chased by slave hunters and ultimately ending at the safe haven of a Quaker family. Why is it important to leave the comforts of the world you know to experience one of the most terrifying and disturbing periods of history? Hopefully, it will lead to a better understanding of those who endured the unthinkable and an appreciation of the bravery of those who risked it all for freedom. Reservations are required and can be made by calling 776-6006 or visiting www. connerpraire.org.

Healthcare tough-love

Commentary by Terry Anker

Around our house, taking a sick day is not terribly common place – mostly because we’re blessed that our family is fairly hearty stock. So far, we’ve logged very few days off work or school and even fewer visits to the emergency room. That’s not to say that we are immune to illness, but it seems we’ve missed many of the travails that plague so many families. But even still, we are loath to wave the white flag and surrender to ailment. Unless there is profuse bleeding or a fever that measures so high that there is concern about the efficacy of the thermometer, it feels awkward to claim a day off. It seems embarrassingly weak. It seems like a personal failure. The question is routinely framed: could we make it to the office? Of course, we probably could. Our productivity might be worthless. Our coworkers would likely be exposed to our germs. And, our judgment might put our employer at risk. But, we could manage to drive

in, park and sit at our desk. Would it make more sense if the frame were: should we make it to the office? What value might we hope to bring? My eldest this week came home early from school – sick. The nurse called and asked that we rescue him from her care. In his 11 years of out-of-home education, we’ve had less than a handful of these calls. It was good that he came home. He needed the care. After a couple of days of rest and starving the fever, he is on the mend. He didn’t need television or cell phones or his favorite foods in bed. How do we encourage one to overcome inconvenience and adversity without excusing them to disregard the messages from their own bodies? Does healthcare tough-love ever make sense?

Somehow, we’re not the least bit surprised that Gov. Mike Pence and the Indiana Arts Commission chose the Center for the Performing Arts as the host site for the 2013 Governor’s Arts Awards this fall. In our minds, it comes down to this: Tania Castroverde Moskalenko, the Center’s president and chief executive officer, has – yes, again - made good on her promise to bring a wide variety of events to the campus. We’ve come to expect that. Her leadership is at once thoughtful and decisive. She is relentless in pursuit of presenting acts and events that will resonate in the Central Indiana arts community, if not beyond. She is passionate about her role in helping to shape the future of the performing arts for this region, and last week’s joint announcement by Pence and the IAC was proof that her efforts again have borne fruit. “The Palladium stage is the perfect place for Indiana’s best and brightest, having become a landmark of excellence through the presentation of artists from all over the world,” she stated last week. According to the IAC, the awards recognize excellence in artistic achievement, philanthropy, arts education, and leadership in the arts, and at the same time build statewide awareness of the important role the arts play in Indiana. As for the Center and the year ahead, we hear a Palladium schedule is being rounded out and will be rolled out sometime in the next month. While we have no particulars, our understanding is that the lineup – covering country, pop, classical and jazz music - is going to be considered the best yet. Fitting, isn’t it, considering Moskalenko’s ambition for excellence in all areas, programming included?

The problem is clear Commentary by Dick Wolfsie A Canadian clothing company that manufactures yoga garb has a quality-control problem that is alienating its fan base. Especially the part of the base that has a big fanny. Lululemon’s hottest item is a pair of stretch yoga pants that sells for $100. This is the perfect garment for men and women engaged in a transcendental endeavor to free themselves from material attachments. Here’s the problem. On Lulu’s website there is a disclaimer that reads: “In some cases, you may experience extreme sheerness.” In other words, you can see through the pants. When your garment selection lists possible side effects, you may need to reconsider your wardrobe. One consumer expert suggested that before you buy the pants, you should try them on and bend over to see if there is a “see-through” issue. Of course, you are hardly in the best position to gather accurate information that way. A company spokesperson suggests you do a yoga maneuver called a “downward dog” to test the transparency of the fabric. I had no idea what this was, so I searched for it on YouTube. My wife came down to the basement when I was watching a video demonstration, and now I’m forbidden to go online unless I have spousal supervision. One yoga enthusiast, presently employed as an engineer, said she doesn’t mind

that her butt shows, but she dislikes the fabric because of the excessive static cling. This is what happens when you ask an electrical engineer a question about tight translucent pants instead of asking a structural engineer. The controversy highlighted for me how many unintentionally funny things corporate people say under pressure. I offer these actual statements from recent news reporting as evidence: A sales representative addressed the problem of defective inventory already in the stores. “The company will be pulling our pants down from the shelves.” When you utter a sentence that includes the phrase, “pulling our pants down,” you’re just asking for some tabloid journalist to take your quote out of context. Another company official noted: “Investors have been plowing money into the stock, so we still have room to grow,” which is not only commentary on future potential but a nod to the biggest advantage of pants made of spandex. And finally, Lululemon’s chief financial officer added that analysts are taking a “wait and see attitude.” Men parked in front of the fitness center are adopting a similar approach.

Goodbye, Lard Butt

Commentary by Mike Redmond

Kind of a big-deal week going on for me right now. I’m having bariatric surgery. (Note: I hereby promise not to write extensively about the experience. Unless, of course, it means I can write something off on my income taxes. In that case, get ready for My Weight-Loss Surgery Travelogue. I have noticed that announcing my surgery to family and friends elicits one of two responses: “Wow, that’s great!” or “What? Are you sure?” Right now, the “Whats” are leading the “Wows” by about five to one. I guess it’s because I’m not as grossly overweight as the people we see on those weight-loss programs on TV. True, I don’t weigh 400, 500 or 600 pounds. But I can recall a time in my adult life when it would have taken two of me to equal my present weight. To be fair, my beanpole period was brief. My childhood nickname was “Lard Butt.” That ought to give you some idea of my general magnus corpus for most of my life. I’m tired of it, and I do mean tired. A body mass index like mine is a lot of work to lug around. “You should diet,” a friend suggested helpfully. Please. I’ve dieted my butt off, literally in some cases. I added it up once and concluded that all told, I have lost through dieting the equivalent mass of an emerging nation. I call it 12 | April 2, 2013

Bolognadonia. “Try exercise,” said another. You think I haven’t? “You should just accept yourself as you are,” said yet another. That’s well-meaning but it means accepting a shortened life span and a host of problems from sleep apnea to high blood pressure to diabetes. I needed a game-changer. So after a year of research and another year jumping through insurance company hoops, here I am heading to the surgical suite. And yes, I am frequently asking myself “What in God’s name am I doing to myself?” Well, after I get over the panic, I see that I am addressing the conditions noted above under life span and problems. I’m getting pro-active about them in the most serious way I can imagine. “This isn’t going to be easy,” my friends have warned. Well, duh. I KNOW it’s not going to be easy. But it hasn’t been easy hauling this corpus around all my life, either. I’ll gladly trade difficulties. I want Lard Butt – Adipis Natibus to you Latin scholars – to be a memory, not a way of life.

Adult vaccinations: Stay current Commentary by Belinda Watts, MD

Vaccinations are most often associated with young children; however, adults also need vaccines to stay healthy. Vaccines cause the body to produce antibodies to fight infection and prevent disease. Depending on the disease, vaccines can provide lifelong immunity or maintain their effectiveness with “boosters” received over time. Today’s vaccines are very safe, and side effects are generally minor. Vaccines are administered by injection in the muscle or fatty tissue. Some people may experience redness, swelling or pain at the injection site and sometimes mild fever. Serious complications from vaccinations are rare. However, there are people with certain risk factors who should not be vaccinated. Consult your doctor before receiving vaccinations. The following vaccines are commonly recommended for adults: Flu vaccine – Prevents influenza; the seasonal flu virus changes from year to year, so annual vaccination is recommended for most adults, including pregnant women. Pneumococcal vaccine – Prevents 80 to 90 percent of pneumococcal disease (pneumonia, blood infections and meningitis); recommended once for adults over age 65 and for younger adults with chronic diseases, such as lung and

heart disorders, asthma and diabetes. Td vaccine – Prevents diphtheria and tetanus; adults should receive a booster every 10 years. Tdap vaccine – Prevents diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (whooping cough); pertussis can be fatal in infants younger than three months; adults should receive the vaccine once after age 19, especially if they are around newborns; pregnant women should be vaccinated between the 27th and 36th week of pregnancy. Herpes zoster (shingles) vaccine – Helps prevent re-activation of the chicken pox virus, which causes shingles in adults; adults should receive the vaccine once after the age of 50 to 60. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine – Prevents HPV infection, which causes genital warts, cervical cancer in women and other types of cancer in men and women; recommended for young adults up to age 26; full immunity requires three doses. It’s best to talk with your primary care doctor at least annually about any vaccinations you may need. Belinda Watts, MD, specializes in preventive and general adult medicine. She is located at IU Health Physicians Internal Medicine, 1650 W. Oak St., Ste. 104, in Zionsville. She can be reached by calling the office at 873-8910.

Community doctor makes heart history news@currentinwestfield.com Community Heart and Vascular Hospital has announced that Community Physician Network electrophysiologist, Emily Rose, M.D., is the first in Central Indiana and among the first in the nation to implant a single-chamber implantable cardiac device developed by BIOTRONIK, a leading manufacturer of cardiovascular medical technology. Last month, the Food and Drug Administration granted final approval for the BIOTRONIK Lumax 740 DX System. The device is a first-in-class ICD that uses a single lead with atrial sensing capabilities.

a thin flexible wire, known as a lead, to deliver an electrical shock to the heart when the heart rate becomes dangerously fast. “While expanding on the benefits of singlechamber ICDs, the new technology provides us with atrial sensing capabilities and home monitoring to keep an eye on important atrial conditions such as A-fib,” Rose said. The DX System also integrates with BIOTRONIK Home Monitoring, allowing physicians to remotely follow their DX patients’ clinical and device statuses daily at anytime, anywhere in the world. The cellular-based platform can detect clinically relevant events, including silent, asymptomatic arrhythmias and device related issues, allowing for earlier medical intervention.

DOUGH Business

Move the needle: Clarity Commentary by CJ McClanahan Every weekend, the family goes out to dinner. We typically choose from six to eight different restaurants. Like all good husbands, when my wife asks where I’d like to eat, I respond with, “I don’t care” or “you choose”. This answer rarely suffices. So, I then think about each menu, location and environment in my mind trying to identify which one fits my current mood. Typically, nothing jumps out, and often we jump in the car without a destination and make our choice based on amount of cars in the parking lot. This sort of ambiguity is completely acceptable on a Saturday night. However, uncertainty in business can have significant consequences. Have you ever waffled for months before firing a bad employee? What about that new product or service that you’ve been thinking about offering for years?

Most people sit on the fence because they are afraid of making the wrong decision. They wonder, “What if you can’t replace that employee or the advertising campaign fails?” You might end up saving a few dollars in your marketing budget, but there’s a problem with this type of thinking. It will keep you from making any real progress in your business. Successful people share a common characteristic. They take risks and make quick decisions. Sometimes, these decisions end up being wrong. However, the most important benefit of taking risks isn’t always making the right decision. The most valuable part of getting off the fence and making a quick decision is the lesson you learn. As with most things in life, the solution is simple. All you need to do is execute.

When I was a kid, my grandfather used to have this mug in his bathroom. It was behind the mirror in his turn of the century house. It was an old fashioned mirror that opened up to reveal three tiny metal shelves. These shelves were cluttered with medicines and other items that needed to be hidden from public eyes. The little mug lived in this cabinet. In this white mug he’d mix up shaving cream with a thick brush. He died when I was 6 or 7 years old, but I remember nearly 40 years later this little mug. After he’d mix the shaving cream in the mug, he’d spread it on his gruff face, weathered from years and years of smoking. He’d then shave his face with a metal safety razor that was as old as him – at 67 he seemed ancient to me at the time. As he would swish that razor in the waterfilled sink, I’d stare at the words on the side of that mug. The mug read, “Today is the first day of the

rest of your life.” I never understood it. How could today be the first day? What’s the rest of your life even mean? Years later, I now know. Years later, I think of it all the time. Years later, I wonder whether the day before he died if he knew what it meant. The past is there to learn from, to correct and refine from. But, it is the past. Too much looking back and you lose site of the next turn in the road and the next opportunity to make the choice to be happier. I’m a big fan of history and understand the past is certainly a key to not repeating mistakes. However, making your mind look forward and create a better rest of your life, that’s the real spirit of living. The rest of your life started today, did you notice?

LIFESTYLE Spirituality

Back to the Bible basics Commentary by Mike Colaw A number of years ago, after I had finished my undergraduate degree in philosophy and religion, I found myself in a sea of religious perspectives, wave after wave of authors and professors pushing their viewpoints. I felt like I was on a raft in a sea of spiritual ideologies, barely staying afloat. In fact, one night I looked at my nightstand and there was a huge stack of books from the latest theologians. Some were pushing social justice, some pushing spiritual reformation and some just seemingly angry with everyone, all adamant that the other authors were completely wrong. As I looked at my stack of books, my heart began to sink a bit. Was this really the culmination of thousands of years of men searching for metaphysical answers? Humanity has so twisted the Christian religion for political gain and social control when its purest motive was to give meaning and purpose, all while ushering in the nature of Jesus. As I looked at my stack of books, there was one I noticed at the bottom of the pile, one I hadn’t spent much time in over the last few months, the Bible. I had spent hours and hours pouring through literature about this book, even reading books by authors attacking others for their interpretations of the Bible. I decided to push these aside and dive into the New Testament. Overwhelmed with the tsunami of spiritual literature, I needed somewhere to throw my anchor. There, tucked away in that old dusty book, I found how

spirituality should be lived out: “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faithfulness. These you ought to have done, without neglecting the others.” (Matthew 23:23 ESV) I found how we are to extrapolate this in our world: “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.” (Galatians 5:22-23 ESV) I found where, or should I say whom, I could sink my life’s anchor into: “Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’ ” (John 14:6 ESV) There is no doubt rejuvenation for me began with anchoring my soul and eliminating the noise of too many voices. I want to challenge you to read through the book of John in the Bible, pay attention to who Jesus is and his nature as he interacts with people in really difficult situations. Though I respect and at times even enjoy all the spiritual “experts” out there, this spring we should get back to the basics. Mike Colaw is the director of ministries at Trinity Church.

INSIDE & OUT Indoors

Removing a wall opens up kitchen Commentary by Larry Greene ORIGINAL KITCHEN: This home was a spec home built in 1984 and is located north of Westfield. The homeowners are the original owners. WHY REMODEL: “The 29-year-old kitchen needed an update. We were looking to make the kitchen more open and larger. We also wanted to take advantage of new technology by getting new appliances. We have a more modern style throughout our home, and we wanted the kitchen to match.” DESIGN PHASE: In line with the contemporary style, flat plane doors were placed into the original design. The homeowners were also attracted to the look of bamboo cabinets. Rather than using such an expensive wood species that would have taken the homeowners outside of their budget, the final design called for high-definition laminate with texture. This option offered the look of bamboo, giving the cabinets character and depth, without the large price tag. The homeowners also wanted to open the kitchen up to the dining room using a built-in buffet design.

This goal was achieved by replacing the wall with upper and lower cabinets and a countertop. According to the owners, “We had no idea what we really wanted. We just told the design team we liked a contemporary style. The designer helped us come up with options and then walked us through the process to the final design.” REMOVING WALL: The removal of the wall made a large impact. “Taking out the wall made the kitchen look twice as big as the original. We especially love the look of the new floor and the backsplash.”

FAVORITE FEATURES: The homeowners are pleased with the new kitchen. “We are still learning how to use all of the new technology in our kitchen appliances. We were slow to remodel, but now that we have done the kitchen, we want to do the whole house!”
