May 12 plan commission meeting recap Compiled by James Feichtner

A public hearing was held with a request to approve a primary plot of land located at approximately 106th Street and Hoosier Road. The request was regarding Hoosier Estates, a subdivision of two lots on approximately 1.46 acres. The proposal would subdivide the lot into .64 and .58 acres. The land would remain as R2 residential as the land would continue to be used as single-family residential land. Why it matters: Neighbors of the proposed lot voiced concerns over increased traffic and drainage issues that would arise from the development. The plan commission unanimously made a motion to approve the request. A public hearing was held with a request to approve a primary plat of land located northeast of Cyntheanne Road and Lin Road. The request is regarding the Weaver family’s property of 22 acres to be subdivided into five lots. The current zoning would stay as R2 as the petitioner intends to market some of the property into single-family homes. Why it matters: The commission unanimously made a motion to approve the request. A public hearing was held with a request to approve a rezone for the Wasson Nursery planned unit development from an R3 and PUD-R to PUD-C. The rezone is in relation Wasson’s desire to purchase the Wild Rive Nursery plot of 5.99 acres located at 13279 E. 126th St. The PUD would allow the land to be configured and used as desired by Wasson Nursery. Why it matters: The commission unanimously made a motion to approve the request.

A public hearing was held with a request to approve a rezone for The Reserve at Lantern PUD from Estate Residential to PUD-R regarding approximately 22.45 acres on the north side of 126th Street between Allisonville Road and Lantern Road. The petitioner, Beazer homes, intends to develop a high-quality subdivision of more than 30 lots on the land marketed towards empty-nester families. Currently the property is owned by Mustard Seed, Inc. made up of four parcels of land. Why it matters: Several neighboring property owners of the proposed lot expressed concern over the density homes in the small, buildable are of the lot after the rezone as well as traffic. Another neighboring property owner expressed concern over the loss of trees and as a result, a 20 foot preservation area will be added to the west side of the lots. A public hearing was held with a request to approve the text amendment of the Saxony planned unit development regarding the proposed Saxony sports complex. The subject property is the area south of 136th Street, north of 134th street, west of Olio Road and east of Minden Drive. Why it matters: The Saxony Sports complex would be a large development and would have a large economic impact on the city if moved forward. Concerned neighbors of the property gathered at the meeting to voice their concerns. The most prominent concern was potential traffic caused by the development and the ability for emergency vehicles to access the nearby hospital. Other concerns were invasive lighting on nearby properties caused by the facility and parking. The commission expressed support of the project and made a motion to approve the request.

Goal: Be happy, healthy By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Dr, James Shoot didn’t really start out with the mission of writing a book. “It unfolded about two and a half years ago when I started copying out the mabooks terials I used in my head over the years,” Shoot said. “I wrote the preface, the table of contents and started writing each Shoot chapter. It wasn’t something I ever intended to do. It largely grew out of unconscious and my concern over what is taking place in the culture. A third of the book is my own integration of the knowledge and material. The other two-thirds comes from the work people have done throughout the cen-

turies, Buddha, Jesus, Isaac Newton, Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung and some more recent authors whose books I’ve been referring people to for many years.” The Fishers resident’s book called “Happiness is for Everyone: A Prescription for Personal and Relationship Contentment.” “It costs $11, it takes about three hours to read and about three years to implement,” Shoot said. Shoot, 68, has been psychiatrist for 37 years. He has worked for Indiana Health Group in Carmel for the past 16 years. “I largely teach people to become happy and healthy,” Shoot said. Shoot said the book is based on the notion that our happiness comes from identifying and satisfying needs. To read the full article, visit www.currentinfishers.com.

Fishers family takes action to discourage discrimination By Michelle Williams • news@currentinfishers.com One Fishers family has set out to increase awareness and foster a commitment within the community to promote respect and discourage discrimination. Latisha Johnson and her daughters Nailah Owensphilanthropy Johnson and Nishara Johnson have started a pledge they call I VOW in honor of Latisha’s late husband, Caruis, who unexpectedly died nearly three years ago as a result of a brain aneurysm. “I VOW is a two-part passion. It’s Nailah’s passion and my late husband’s passion,” said Latisha. Her husband was impassioned with educating people regarding diversity. “Nailah has always had the passion to see people work together in unity, respect one another and treat everybody right.” Nailah is a junior at Hamilton Southeastern High School. At the beginning of the year, she started a club called DO Something. This month, the school principal approved the club’s request to promote the I VOW pledge school wide with students and staff. Latisha said that the goal is to encourage supporters to reaffirm their pledges on an annual basis. The women have taken their pledge to social media, starting up profiles with Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. One current campaign chal-

lenges followers to “pass the torch” by joining the movement and challenging others to take the I VOW pledge. Nailah and her classmates have even initiated a special hand symbol to represent the pledge. Latisha hopes to encourage others to take action. “I VOW is not political or religious. It’s just a moral that we’re asking people to take a pledge to show respect. We are a family that is doing something about what is going on in our world today by creating the I VOW movement. It’s not just a promise; it’s a vow, a lifetime commitment.” The family invites the community to join them on social media and email them at ivowmovement@gmail.com for more information about the I VOW movement.

Today, there are 2.3 million marriages and 1.2 million divorces each year and about half are marriages where one or both have previously been married. Currently, only 35 to 40 percent of engaged couples family receive any kind of premarital education or counseling. Over the years, premarital counseling has shown to decrease divorce rates by 30 percent (that is 360,000 marriages saved) and improve overall martial satisfaction. While the statistics may surprise you, there is an incredible benefit and assurance Many premarital and newly married couples view their own relationship through an idealistic rose-colored lens that “shields” the couple from the very realistic truths that invade at various times throughout their marriage. With this in mind, it is so vital to consider the natural change that takes place in a marriage: careers, children, in-laws, finances, sex, illness, etc. An assumption couples adopt is that a good relationship flows naturally, however, healthy marriages requires consistent attention. A good, healthy marriage requires replenishment due to the natural changes mentioned above and so much more. So what are the benefits of premarital counseling? A couple in a healthy marriage

live healthier lifestyles, live longer, have a more satisfying sexual relationship, are happier, make more money, and so much more! David Olson, co-author of “The Couple Checkup,” states that prevention is emerging as an important approach across a variety of disciplines. When a couple knows possible areas of struggle, it is much easier to identify potential issues so they can be dealt with and addressed. Whether you became engaged yesterday (congratulations) or have been married for years, be proactive and learn what needs to be replenished in your relationship, your marriage. It is far more than just a simple checklist, but intentionality paired with focused attention and efforts. Are you investing for your happily ever after? Everybody deserves a happy and wonderful marriage. What steps are you taking to make that your reality? Product I recommend: “The Couple Checkup” by David Olson, Amy Olson-Sigg, and Peter J. Larson.

What others said couldn’t be done, we’re doing. St.Vincent Heart Center is continuously pushing the limits of what’s possible in heart care. To do that takes an amazing amount of skill, study, experience and dedication. But it also takes passion. A passion to make a difference in the lives of those who suffer from heart disease. And a desire to look beyond the boundaries to find better ways. Close to home. Second to none.

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

Hamilton East Public Library, with buildings in Noblesville and Fishers, hopes to reshape the image of the modern ligrowth brary with their new logo and website. Cheryl Jurgens, community realtions manager, said an obvious thing to change was the library’s mission. Last year, the library began working on a strategic plan that refreshed their mission, the goals for the next few years and changing their image. “We’re not like the old-fashioned library, we’re doing a lot of new things, Jurgens said. The Noblesville Public Library partnered with Iconic Digital, a company in Launch Fishers which is based out of the Fishers library, to recreate their website. The library also partnered with Reborn Code to do the linking and HTML codes. After surveying library users, nonusers and employees, they gathered a large chunk of data from all age groups and positions to help create a new website. “We want to become a partner in the com-

Listen, I believe in you Commentary by Jenny Swisher Most everyone knows that in order to make progress in your health and fitness, you’ve got to move your body. Those who have embraced this fact and who exercise often have also learned that to achieve motiVation their healthiest body, they must consume whole foods. But it turns out, there is one more component that often goes unnoticed, and it could be the reason most people struggle. That component? Belief. The absolute belief that YOU can do this. That you’re capable, and you’re strong enough, and you’re ready. Every year, when it comes time for New Year’s Resolutions, and folks make the decision to change their health for the better, my response is always the same: “Who in your life is going to hold you accountable?” Typically, I follow that statement by offering

to be their “person.” To coach them, motivate them and hold them accountable to the resolution they so eagerly announced at that New Year’s Eve party. The truth is, most people don’t have an accountability partner. Someone to text them to make sure they get up and do their workout at 5 a.m. Someone to meet them at the gym or at the grocery. Someone to check in on them to make sure they’re staying on track. And most importantly, someone who believes in them, even on the days they don’t believe in themselves. The answer is this: Find someone to hold you accountable, to be honest with you and to believe in you. Jenny Swisher is the owner of RevolutionX Studio here in Fishers, and also leads a team of nearly 300 health coaches in helping folks achieve their healthiest life.

By James Feichtner • james@youarecurrent.com When it comes to generosity, Irene Wilkin of Fishers takes the cake. Nearly 20 years ago, Wilkin worked with her church to knit blankets and outfits for premature babies. After the project ended, giving back she continued her efforts to knit. “She just started doing it on her own just to help out hospitals because there are so many babies born premature and the mothers aren’t prepared,” said daughter Joy Wilkin. “They are just very grateful to get an outfit or bonnet or blanket and it means so much to them.” Nearing 90, Irene works with another Fishers resident who sews dresses.

women have made over 300 garments, both refusing to take credit for their kind acts. “They’re just so humble about it,” Joy said. “When the ladies at the hospital come to call them and thank them for it they say, ‘Oh no they don’t have to do that. We didn’t do it for that.’

top TrAIner Fishers physical therapist to judge on Men’s Health TV show

Hartman and IFAST employee Ty Terrell evaluate Jaime Frias a he executes a deadlift.

By Renee Larr • news@youarecurrent.com Fishers’ resident, Bill Hartman has been named as a judge on Men’s Health Next Top Trainer. Hartman is a co-owner of a Fishers personal training and physical therapy cover story gym, Indianapolis Fitness and Sports Training. They provide custom training programs based on each individual client’s needs and ability level. “We work with clients extending from the ages of eight to 87. Everyone that comes in is evaluated extensively and so everyone gets their own program. It’s basically customized for them based on their goals and needs,” said Hartman. Hartman’s business partner at IFAST is the President of Robertson Training System, Mike Robertson. The two were acquaintances due to their positions within the Indianapolis fitness industry. The relationship was a natural one that developed from both men seeing a need for more space to work. “We both had reached critical mass as far as how many people we could work with … I was actually training people in a 1,000-square-foot gym in my house. Mike was working in the commercial gyms borrowing space and such. It just came to the point where we needed to have our facility,” said Hartman. Hartman is a former collegiate athlete competing in javelin and playing football. Hartman was even a top 10 finisher in the National Junior Olympics. He also participated in body building competitions. As an athlete he suffered from injuries so the transition into physical therapy was an easy one. “I was working on a master’s degree in exercise physiology. I was spending lots of hours in the lab. I was an athlete so I had

plenty of injuries with that … you’re always in the rehab room. It just seemed like the next logical step. I was always fascinated with the process of human performance and training,” said Hartman. Hartman also works as a contributing writer and columnist at Men’s Health magazine while also serving on the advisory board. “They have specialty areas that with me being a physical therapist that I fill that role on the advisory board,” said Hartman. Men’s Health approached Hartman about participating as a judge on their show Next Top Trainer. Being on the advisory board proved to a foot in the door for Hartman. He was approached MH to guest judge. They thought his personality would be the perfect fit. MH was looking for trainers that both understand the science of training and also can show proven results. “It’s the classic set up. We had eight total trainers come in. There are three judges. There are two standard judges and then they rotated guest judges in,” said Hartman. The trainers compete in a series of physical challenges designed to test their athletic ability. They’re also provided a piece of workout equipment and asked to create a video tutorial detailing the use of the item. The air date of the show has not been released yet. “The guys were really put on the spot which you would think would be really uncomfortable but the guys did a great job as far as being spontaneous and engaging,” said Hartman. They also had to supervise a photo shoot as if they were

shooting for the MH magazine. They had to make sure the exercises were executed correctly and that the pictures would be magazine worthy and usable. Hartman has juggled his duties at IFAST and writing for MH for years. He credits the support of his wife for helping him handle it all. “I’ve been doing this for a long time. We’re kind of in a groove. I have a very understanding wife. She’s very supportive. It used to be worse when I had two jobs. I was working in a clinic that was not my own and also working in the gym, as well. I worked every Saturday from 1998 through 2013,” said Hartman. Hartman plans to continue writing for MH for as long as they’ll have him and continues to see growth with IFAST. For more information on IFAST visit indianapolisfitnessandsportstraining.com.

My son, the new driver

FR O M   T HE BA C KSH O P So, does Christie have a backbone? There was a time when we actually believed Gov. Chris Christie (R-N.J.) would make a fine presidential candidate. And then came Super Storm Sandy a few years back. President Barack Obama showing up on a wind-ravaged boardwalk, Christie at his side, pledging help to rebuild the Jersey Shore, followed that. It was a great and noble gesture, the president’s appearance and promise. It also was important. And then they shared a quick hug. Sure, it was in the emotion of the moment, but that’s when Christie seemed to lose his backbone (endemic of the Republican Party across this great nation). He was, in the moment, being a great governor, though. And then came Bridge Gate and a blown opportunity. When challenged, if he was as innocent as he claims, then why didn’t he go Christie on the media and critics? Very strange. The larger picture will show that he lost, and probably won’t regain, the pointed bluster for which he was known. Too bad. Perhaps because the party isn’t necessarily giving him a second look that it’s a signal he still may be a viable candidate. America needs a president that can stand in the gap, kick butts and take names, and he appeared to be that person. The question is this: Is it too late for him to become a phoenix? We wish we knew. The Daily Beast last week wrote Christie “is planning, over the course of the next few weeks … to deliver a series of policy speeches on various topics … Still, there’s no telling whether his attempt to change the conversation will work.” We’ll be interested to see how it all shakes out, but in our view it probably will be a case of too little too late.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

The life-form ladder

Commentary by Terry Anker

One wonders how like us Neanderthal humans may have been. To be sure, there are countless environmental and even physical differences between us moderns and our ancestors. But, is there a retinue of characteristics that has been with us from the beginning? Love, envy, happiness and despair might be on the start of such a list. Surely, they deserve consideration as perpetual qualities of humanity. What about anger, hope, intellect and generosity? But then, can’t we expect the family dog to exhibit many of these same traits? Is it that these words apply to all creatures on a continuum from amoeba to Homo sapiens? Does our command over concepts increase with each rung on the life-form ladder? Philosophers have discussed and dissected these kinds of questions for as long as we’ve had language with which to debater the matter. Arriving at a moment when we “know” that we are a being and imagining what that means is a common conception of

what might distinguish humans from other higher order animals. But if they lack the ability to communicate with us, is it possible to imagine that they do understand more than we think? Many others point to God’s choice of humans to hold dominion over his earthly creation. Do the animals know of this directive? Did they have one of their own? It all becomes very confusing, very quickly. In a world where universal truths are hard to come by, we look for common ground. If we can distill the elements that make up our collective humanity, can we hope to better understand one another? In looking at a little closer to home, do we see ourselves and those closest to us with an eye informed by these basic elements? Could it help us understand our spouses? Teenagers? They are humans, aren’t they? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentincarmel.com.

Q U O T E  O F  T HE WEEK “Cynicism is a powerful anesthetic we use to numb ourselves to pain, but which also numbs us to joy.” - Rachel Held Evans

How do I describe, in 350 words or less, the multitude of emotions that bombarded me when my oldest obtained his driver’s license? I have no idea, but humor doggoneit, I’m gonna try! The first feeling that hit was relief. This has been a long-anticipated event in our household for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is having a third driver able to pick up/drop off at dance, volleyball, tae kwon do, track, PRE, student council, Orff, art club, cross country, Sports Clips, Yogurtz and Subway. [Carpooling and I no longer must maintain our façade of niceties and can finally go our separate ways; I wish him the best of luck!] Piggy-backing relief was pride. We have kept our heir alive for sixteen years and instilled in him not only excellent roundabout negotiating skills, but also, gasp, civic responsibility! While completing the paperwork at the BMV, he registered as an organ donor and inquired about his eligibility to vote in the next Presidential election. Our son may live in a pig sty of a room and think fruit snacks are nutritional, but, by God, he might just make a real contribution to society after all! Finally, and this one didn’t land until I glanced in my rearview mirror and saw Geoffrey behind the wheel of his grandfather’s Ford Explorer, I felt abject terror. I had just consented to giving a teenage boy the power to kill not only himself, but everyone in the northern Indianapolis suburbs. [Insert emphatic cussing here.] True, his provisional license places limits on when he can drive (not between the hours of 10 p.m. and 5 a.m.) and on his passengers (no friends for another six months), but still, he can now cause, and be the victim of, both minor fender benders and horrific car accidents. Even worse? There’s not a single thing I can do about it. The last thread of parental protection has been cut, and my 6’2” baby is on his own! Raising children is hard, but wading through the emotions of watching them grow is even harder. Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist.

Reasons I’ll miss Letterman Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

DESIGN & REMODELING SEMINAR

10. The monologue. Unlike other hosts, David Letterman is quick to admit when one of his jokes has bombed, a technique he learned from Johnny Carson. But here’s another difference in late-night monologue humor style: for Jimmy Fallon in particular, virtually every punchline is followed by additional commentary, attempting to reinforce the joke. Letterman’s zinger is over when it’s over, except for the host’s mugging to the audience. Which approach is better? Well, if you were a Jack Benny fan like I was, you’d know the answer. 9. Fun facts (a segment they have discontinued). Based on the fictitious Federal Bureau of Miscellaneous Information, the sketches began with some relatively obscure-but-legitimate facts to set up the premise, but then we got gems like this: • Orville Wright was the first person to return his seat to the upright and locked position. • The recent space probe to Mars found no water, but rather traces of Diet Sprite. • When Thomas’ English Muffins were invented there were only nooks.

nies came years later. 8. The opening joke. It’s usually an “inside” joke that only the people in the studio audience understand because Dave came out earlier to interact with the crowd and find someone to poke fun at. There’s no logical reason this should work, but it always does. The audience laughter is infectious and viewers want to get in on the fun. 7. Paul Shaffer. I don’t know enough about music to judge how good a bandleader he is, but I think his sidekick role has been underappreciated. Paul provides the perfect background commentary to Dave’s rants and observations, often simply reiterating or confirming what Dave has said with a perfectly pitched mocked sincerity. Oh, and Paul has worn a different wild suit or sport coat every night for over 30 years. I’ll miss that, too.

We all have. The truth is that you can’t implement every single great idea. Here’s a process that will help decide what’s really essential. Every time an amazing idea pops into your head, rank its merit before you do anything (like sending out a mass email or scheduling an emergency meeting). Use a 1-10 scale with 1 = completely disagree and 10 = completely agree. There is a clear link between the implementation of this idea and our most important annual goals. 1. We have the skill sets and expertise required to execute this new idea. 2. The amount of effort/resources required to implement this idea is minimal. 3. This idea will provide an enormous boost to the morale of our team. Once complete, calculate an average. If the average is below a seven and your team is busy, than your new idea probably needs to be put on the back burner.

Small scale: how anyone, anywhere can grill great food Commentary by Sam Elliott

hamburger sliders

My inner Ron Swanson has never given up on finding a way to grill. Growing up in the suburbs with parents who both cooked regularly, I took grilling out for granted. Because when you move out and can’t grill as outdoor living regularly, you’re driven to find a solution. College life introduces you to the George Foreman style of things. But I like to think that Swanson – the meat-loving all-American legend of television’s late “Parks and Recreation” – would be proud of my adaptability and creativity when it comes to cooking raw meat over an open flame. Even city slickers can easily get in on the grilling greatness. Experience has taught me that there’s a grilling option for any size outdoor space. One of my young adulthood’s homes in the city included a small rectangular patch of outdoor concrete no longer than six feet on any side. But limited space shouldn’t limit your outdoor cooking experience. The best options for small-scale grilling include the smallest of charcoal grills or portable camping propane options. Not having access to a full-size kitchen or grill doesn’t mean you don’t have access to an incredible grilled meal. And you know what’s great to cook on small grills? Small things.

Ditch the big burger patties for individualized, customizable sliders served on smaller dinner rolls for buns – also grilled, of course. Tip: To make your own small-size burger buns, use a quick biscuit mix, but instead of water use plain yogurt in the mix. Roll into small balls, bake at 350 degrees and serve topped with mini burgers and toppings.

Soaked shrimp

Shark steaks

Marinate shrimp a concoction of lemon juice, lime juice, salt and pepper overnight or at least for a few hours before cooking. Or you could use Italian dressing. Or barbeque sauce. Or hot sauce. You get the idea. It’s a super easy and effective way to add some solid flavoring to your meat before you grill. Pair with: Sesame Rice and a glass of Chardonnay. For the rice recipe, visit currentnightandday.com. Ingredients: Fresh garlic, cayenne pepper, fresh shrimp, paprika, olive oil, salt and lemon juice. Directions: 1. Preheat grill for medium

heat. 2. In a small bowl, crush the garlic with the salt. Mix in cayenne pepper and paprika, and then stir in olive oil and lemon juice to

form a paste. 3. Lightly oil grill grate. Cook shrimp for two to three minutes per side, or until opaque.

Regardless of how you felt at the end of “Jaws” – or any of the forgettable cash-grab sequels that followed – you’ll find shark steak to be delicious and unlike your typical seafood fishy eating experiences. Shark steaks come pre-cut smaller than beef steaks, but are just as delicious. An overnight stay in a Ziploc bag full of Italian dressing really does wonders for the steaks, adding an enjoyable supporting cast of flavor but still allowing the natural taste of the shark meat to come through the grilling experience. Or try the time-tested milk bath recipe. Pair with: A glass of Pinoit Grigio. Ingredients: two, eight-ounce shark steaks, two cups of milk, one tablespoon lemon juice, sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Directions: 1. Place the shark steaks in a shallow dish and pour

milk over them to cover. Let stand for 2 hours, or refrigerate overnight. 2. Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Remove the shark steaks from the pan and pat dry. Discard leftover milk. Season the

steaks with lemon juice, sea salt and pepper. 3. Grill the steaks until meat is firm, about 15 minutes, turning once. Fish should appear white all the way through.

Creekside performer’s career reaches new heights at Beef & Boards news@currentinwestfield.com Creekside Middle School sixth-grader Ethan Gold’s performing career has reached new heights in Beef & Boards performance Dinner Theatre’s production of the Sir James Barrie classic, “Peter Pan.” Making his debut at Beef & Boards in its 2015 Family Show, Gold has appeared in several productions at Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre, including “Willy Wonka” and “The Wizard of Oz,” and several others through Jr. Civic and his school. And his newest role finds him flying to Neverland as John Darling, Wendy’s younger brother who soars with her and Peter Pan to a magical place filled with fairies, pirates and Lost Boys who won’t grow up. “I love many things about the show, but what beats all the others is the flying,” Gold said. “Getting to hook up on strings and fly is just an astounding experience. Everyone dreams to fly, but now it seems you can!” Although only 12 years old, the young thespian has gleaned wisdom from his experience so far

on the stage. “I like … getting the chance to study to become a character,” Gold said. “I believe after being so many different characters you become a wiser person and are able to expand your horizons.” But there’s also a “rush you get when you walk on the stage to begin the show,” he said. Of course, performing is not without its challenges, too. “Ask any actor and they will agree,” Gold said, “the hardest part about being in a show is tech week Gold – getting used to the lights, costumes, microphones, etc. is a long, difficult process.” Regardless of this necessary element of the process, Gold says his future will likely be on the stage. “Becoming a professional actor is definitely at the top of my list,” he said. “Also, I’m considering becoming an English professor or an architect.” For more, visit beefandboards.com.

Resonance helps weight-loss

Commentary by Dr. Charlies Solano

Nutrition has been a part of my practice for 48 years after graduating New York Chiropractic College and weight loss also a part of my wife’s practice, Dr. Peggy, for 33 years after graduating Palmer College. With all of the concern about nutrition and weight control our endeavors led us to Resonance Frequency. Sometimes, multiple formulas and pills the patient is taking daily are prohibitive and knowing that everyone digests differently made us question, for years, if they’re being absorbed properly and thereby getting maximum benefit from their supplements. Not with resonance frequency, the supplements are embedded in water and sipped through the day maximizing quick absorption. We found through resonance frequency a remarkable system of losing weight fast and safe. You’re eating your own food. Your body is breaking down adipose fat tissue from those difficult areas, hips, thighs and buttocks and turning the adipose tissue to glucose. This means your glucose plasma is steady and when that happens you don’t get hungry. The only reason we get hungry is because your blood sugar (glucose) drops, triggering the hypothalamus to stimulate us to eat and add calories to break down to glucose; the body’s fuel. On the weight loss formula females burn between 2000 to 4000 kcal daily and men burn between 3000 to 7000 kcal daily. Imagine with an intense workout you may burn 400 calories. The weight loss is fast and steady and the program is easy to follow. We’ve had hundreds of successful cases

this past year. An added bonus to this had been with diabetic patients. When on the program, because of a balancing of glucose, their doctors lower their medications and some even stop their insulin and metformin totally. That goes for hypertensive and hypercholesterolemia. This is more than a weight loss formula, it’s life transforming. If you are gaining weight it is due to fat storage and you’re not burning fat. Many of our obese patients’ state they don’t eat that much and no matter what they cannot lose weight. It’s not their fault or yours. We find when we evaluate these patients, whose ages range from 20 to 75 years old, that their metabolism is functioning 20 to 50 years above their actual age. Normal metabolic age should be below your chronological age. Nutrimost Resonance Frequency Technology gets your body from fat storage (slow metabolism) to fat burning (a balanced metabolism). A balanced metabolism is when hormones and neurotransmitters are normalized. Not only do you get to the fat burning stage on this program, but we strive to reset your weight point. Like many of our patients who, one year later, are still at their desired weight point although they have returned to eating carbohydrates, fats and other food they have always liked. With a new weight reset you can continue to stay in this fat burning stage.

Dr. Charles Solano, D.C. DABCT, is President of the International Thermographic Society and also holds diplomat status. He is a Board Certified Addictionologist and a Board Certified Industrial Consultant.

Duke Energy sees increased customer reports of scammers

By Alec Johnson • news@currentinwestfield.com

Duke Energy Indiana customers are warned to be vigilant after an increase in customer reports of a utility bill payment scam. consumer alert The scam works when an individual, who claims to be a Duke Energy employee, makes an unsolicited phone call to a customer and claims that their service will be disconnected unless the customer makes an immediate payment, usually within an hour. The caller then tells the customer to buy a prepaid debit card, which is widely available at retail stores, and instructs the customer to call back to supposedly pay Duke Energy. Once the call back is made, the caller asks for the prepaid debit card’s receipt number and PIN number, giving them access to the funds on the card and the ability to drain its balance. Duke Energy Indiana spokesman Lew Middleton said it’s important for customers to understand that a legitimate Duke Energy employee would never ask or require customers with delinquent accounts to buy prepaid debit cards to prevent service disconnection. According to its website, Duke Energy

states payments can also be made online, by phone, by automatic bank draft, by mail or in person. “We give people advance disconnect notification with their regular monthly billing. We never give a notification just one hour before disconnection,” Middleton said. Another scam that Duke Energy’s website mentions is a third-party payment scam. Callers claiming to be Duke Energy employees are telling customers that they can pay customers’ account balances for a cash fee. The site goes on to say that no one from Duke Energy will ever offer to pay those balances in exchange for a fee. The only fees charged by Duke, according to its website, are convenience fees for payments using the automated phone system and one-time payments made through the website. They do not charge customers extra fees for paying bills by mail, at authorized pay locations or through online banking services. More information about the scams can be found at this link, or by calling Duke Energy directly at 1-800-521-2232. The number can also be called to verify whether someone is a legitimate Duke Energy employee. They advise customers to call police immediately if they think the person is an imposter.

Torre del Oro in Seville, Spain. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Seville’s Tower of Gold

Commentary by Don Knebel

The Torre del Oro (“Tower of Gold”) reflects an era in which Seville, Spain, became the economic and cultural center of Europe. The source of the tower’s alluring travel name remains a mystery. Seville lies along the Guadalquivir River about 50 miles upstream from the Atlantic Ocean. By the thirteenth century, Seville was one of the most important cities in the Andalusia region of southern Spain. In about 1222, the Almohads, an Islamic dynasty controlling Andalusia, built the Torre del Oro aside the river to protect the city against attack from Christian forces of the Reconquista (“Recapture”). The tower comprised a lower section in the form of a regular dodecahedron and an upper octagonal section made of brick. A large chain stretched from Torre del Oro to another tower across the river, lashing together a series of pontoons and creating a floating barrier to prevent attacking ships from entering the city. The plan failed. In 1248,

forces under Ferdinand III of Castile smashed through the barrier, captured Seville and converted the tower to a chapel and then a prison. Seville continued to grow and prosper under Christian control. After Christopher Columbus claimed the New World for the House of Castile, the port of Seville adjacent the Torre del Oro obtained a commission to handle all trade with the Spanish colonies. By the sixteenth century, Seville, with a population of up to one million people, was one of largest cities in the world, with Europe’s second largest cathedral. Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan left from the Torre del Oro in 1519 for what became the first voyage around the world. A circular third level was added to the tower in 1769.

You, too, can grow roses By Bob Wasson The refrain is all too frequent. Homeowners often say they love roses, but have trouble growing them. The introduction of the Knock Out line of bushes has allowed gardening gardeners to begin using phrases like “trouble-free” and “plant and forget” when referring to their rose garden. Knock Out roses are as hardy as they are beautiful. They are available in a variety of exquisite colors (red, pink, white and yellow), and best of all, they don’t need to be coddled. As vigorous and resilient as it may be, a rugged winter can still take its toll on a rose bush. That’s why every spring you should inspect your roses for “winter kill,” which is easily identified when the bushes sprout new growth only from the base of the plant, leaving the stems and branches as dead wood. The solution is to remove all the black or brown wood from the bush, uniformly cut all the green stems to about the same height, and then fertilize. Many gardeners recommend Bayer All-in-One Rose & Flower Care because it is easy to apply and has the added benefit of insect and disease prevention. Knock Out roses are popular because they are fragrant, have petals that dazzle with alluring color and resist common diseases

Benefits of multi-tasking pergolas Commentary by Randy Sorrell This rich mocha stained pergola is packed with responsibility! Its primary function, as with most pergolas, is prooutdoor living viding dappled shade in an overly exposed sunny spot. And while the size of the pictured pergola is somewhat abbreviated, it successfully accomplishes this mission around the massive grill station and stone counter. Our guests (yes, it’s my home) are often amused as to how much relief it provides from the blazing sun. MULTI-TASKING We often design / build pergolas as a visual block or to enhance privacy. The beautiful, yet abrasively close, neighbors’ home and basketball goal is quietly minimized with the beams and overhead units of the structure. Often, we will plant a non-invasive wisteria or flowering clematis to romantically consume portions of the pergola for an old-world feel. A primary element of creating an “outdoor room” is establishing the sensation of a roof structure. The heavy canopy of an existing shade tree or several ornamental serviceberry or redbud trees freshly planted around the patio can accomplish this. This home has the benefit of each, coupled with the strategically
