By Stephanie Simpson • editorial@youarecurrent.com Due to the low and receding water levels caused by this summer’s drought, Morse Beach has had to close for the rest of the 2012 season. Normally, the beach would be open daily until Aug. 14 and thereafter would be open on weekends until Labor Day. Lifeguards and season pass holders are greatly affected by early closing. Allen Patterson, director of Hamilton County Parks and Recreation Dept., which runs the beach, said that lifeguards were given the option to stay on staff to help close down the beach. Those who agreed to stay are now working on various projects to get the area ready for next year’s summer season. Such maintenance activities include putting equipment away, repairing ropes and buoys and painting the bathhouse. As for the few summer pass holders, Patterson is still discussing how to best handle the situation. Closing early isn’t something entirely new for Morse Beach. In Patterson’s 20 years in the department, he recalled the beach having to close due to drought conditions one time before. Additionally, during this previous early closing, there was less water than the beach has now. So for the rest of the summer, residents will have to cool off in local pools and splash parks and look forward to the opening of Morse Beach in 2013.

Plain talk
‘Old School’ movie night Commentary by Susan Bryant
During this record heat wave, the best way to spend a summer afternoon may not be sizzling at the pool but escaping into an air conditioned movie theater. Unfortunately, to buy tickets and snacks for the whole family to enjoy a show at the multiplex requires taking out a small loan. Disney and Pixar aren’t the only games in town though. Consider going “old school” and exposing your kids to classic films that rely more on storytelling than the latest 3D cartoon characters or CG graphics. They may be surprised to learn that movies that don’t involve explosions, snarky humor or require special glasses can still have a “wow” factor. Here’s a few recommendations for middle schoolers and up for other flicks that aren’t necessarily “kids movies” but are still entertaining and have the potential to lead to some interesting post-viewing discussions. “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner,” 1967, Set in the 1960’s, this film tells the story of two families dealing with the issue of race relations when the subject is personal, rather than just an abstract concept. For kids who have friends of all colors, and have never thought anything about it, this film is an eye-opening experience for just how recently society has accepted relationships among different races. “To Kill a Mockingbird,” 1962, What makes this timeless story about class differences and
prejudice so powerful is that it’s told from the viewpoint of a child, Scout. She learns that despite our best intentions, justice isn’t always served and people aren’t always what they seem to be – as in real life. “Breaking Away,” 1979, Who can’t relate to feeling lost, disillusioned or not fitting in at some point in their lives? Filmed in Bloomington, this classic coming of age movie should be mandatory viewing for anyone calling themselves a Hoosier. “Brian’s Song,” 1971, Considered one of the best sports movies of all time, this true story of the friendship between Chicago Bears football players Brian Piccolo and Gayle Sayers illustrates what true character is in the face of adversity and what real friendship looks like - not bad themes for today’s kids to think about. So, next time the kids clamor to see the latest blockbuster, pick an older flick and skip the theater. No overpriced popcorn, no one kicking the back of your chair and no one “shushing” your thoughtful commentary during the show. Try a classic film fest at home and see what kind of reviews you get.

Fishers Town Council
GET THE CURE
What Happened: The Council approved three items on the consent agenda concerning police vehicle upgrades What it means: Three of the items on last week’s consent agenda that went before the council related to equipment purchases for 17 new police vehicles. By voting yes, the Town of Fishers staff can now move forward with the purchases. The items for purchase include in-car cameras for the vehicles, lights, consoles and computers, according to council action forms. The in-car cameras will cost $53,376, the lighting and consoles clock in at $90,866, and the computer equipment costs $67,135. All three expenses fall under a current loan taken out for the purchase of the cars.

What Happened: The council approved a resolution (R071612A) What it means: Town of Fishers staff needs the council’s approval when funds are transferred in order to pay for capital improvements originally ear-marked for contractual spending. The total funds transfer amounts to $55,150, covering the purchase of the following: steel storage loft, Caterpillar forklift, Hydrogritter, security badge printer, GIS conference expense and Dell Equal Logic SAN.

ALSO IN ANDERSON, KOKOMO AND MUNCIE
What Happened: A new ordinance (Ord071612) had its first reading What it means: The new ordinance, presented by Tom Weger, a public information officer at FPD, adds extra governance to pawn shops and similar stores (such as cash-for-gold businesses). The ordinance would combat burglaries and identify stolen items. There was discussion of participation fees and other issues that will be addressed at second reading. What happened: A new ordinance (Ord071612A) had its first reading What it means: The ordinance is a request to rezone 7.5 acres worth of property at 96th Street and Mollenkopf Road. The rezone would make the residential area ready for commercial use. Homeowners in the area entered into a contract in which their property is pooled together, with the intent of selling all the land to a single developer. The council had the contact information collected of several Fishers residents so a forum can be held on the rezoning. What happened: A request to approve a request to approve a driveway cut at 10748 116th St. What it means: The petitioner, St. George Church, originally asked for a driveway cut at its undeveloped location in 2008. It didn’t pass. Now in 2012, the church still needs the driveway cut. After research was completed, Director of Engineering Jeff Hill presented a plan for the driveway that would also involve closing part of the median at 116th Street to provide for left turn access and u-turns. At the July 2 meeting, the council voted for a continuance in order to alert neighbors in the area that construction is coming. Several residents in the area addressed the council, including Shirley Triller, vice president of the Lake Stonebridge board of directors. Several citizens were concerned about the safety of motorists and pedestrians, making such a decision that will have major future implications and the length of the turn lane. Councilors felt that because this was not a rezoning, the Church has a right to develop the property, and Hill’s department found the safest way to do so. The vote passed five to one. What happened: A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Hamilton County for the delivery of E911 dispatch services was approved What it means: Fishers enters into the fold with Noblesville, Carmel and Westfield for a consolidated dispatch center with Hamilton County. While Fishers previously relied on Hamilton County for dispatch services, the extra demand from surrounding communities (namely Carmel) cannot be covered by wireless and land line taxes. Each community will “pay the shortfall” for the center, according to a council action form. Town Manager Scott Fadness said in an interview that the Town of Fishers budget will provide $700,000 for the services.

4-H Queen Pageant Huber named 2012 4-H Fair Queen By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com
Fishers resident Kyleigh Kimbrell was Miss Congeniality and fourth runner-up. (Photos by Robert Herrington)
The final 4-H fair for any 10-year member is always memorable, but for Arcadia’s Sarah Huber, it was “shocking.” Huber was crowned the 2012 Hamilton County 4-H Fair Queen, beating out 22 other contestants. “When they first called my name I was really surprised and incredibly excited,” she said. “It’s such an incredible moment – it’s overwhelming.” Huber, the daughter of Doug and Bernie Huber, said the fact she was the newest county queen didn’t hit her until the following day when she thought about the gallery of Hamilton County 4-H queen photos hanging inside the fair office. “What an honor it is to be queen and have your picture up there,” she said. “It’s the crowning moment of my 4-H career.” Looking back at her 10 years as a member of the Huskey 4-H’ers 4-H Club, Huber said she’s really grown and knows how hard volunteers have helped her and other 4-H’ers. “I appreciate how much 4-H has taught me,” she said. Since this was her final fair as a participant, Huber said she was looking forward to handing out ribbons as queen and experiencing that “really exciting moment” when students get recognition for their hard work. “I get to go to shows I haven’t been to at the
Sarah Huber fair,” she said. “I’ll learn more about what it’s like to show animals and the process.” This year was Huber’s first time as a queen contestant. “I wanted to do it for several years but was so busy with volleyball,” she said. “My 4-H leader and mom encouraged me to participate.” The 4-H Fair Queen Court included Makaila Osborne of Sheridan, first runner-up; Christy Kettler of Westfield, second runner-up; Kelly Moorhous of Arcadia, third runner-up; and Kyleigh Kimbrell of Fishers, fourth runner-up and Miss Congeniality. “It’s even more fun to be with the girls on the court,” Huber said.

FPD officer Randy McFarland crafts unique fishing baits to support outreach program By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com The Osamanator. The Headhunter. Ballistic “Buzz Killer.” They sound like intimidating nick-names for elite soldiers fighting on the world’s toughest battle fields. In reality, they’re just a handful of names for unique fishing baits crafted with disarmed bullets by one of FPD’s officers to fund a unique cause. Sergeant Randy McFarland, a public education officer, started the company that sells unique fishing lures and baits to help pay for a youth outreach program of his own creation – Sarge’s Catch and Release Program. McFarland helped start FPD’s School Resource Officer Unit in 2002 for the Hamilton Southeastern school district. In the early days of the program, he felt he didn’t have enough time to really counsel students who were going through tough times. After a long day of work, McFarland took his gear out to fish and realized his hobby could be the vehicle for the extra outreach and counseling he wanted to do. “This isn’t about fishing, it’s about time,” he said. “It’s just teaching them [the participants] the importance that there’s more to life than [material] things.” The program took off in 2003. Each summer McFarland takes a group of young men fishing intermittently throughout the season. He teaches each participant the art of fishing for the first couple of outings, and down the line, if they need guidance, he’s there to talk about making responsible choices. McFarland said the catch and release program evolved to include kids that may need an extra role model and kids that deserve a little extra praise and to get outdoors. If the participants get through the summer without getting into any trouble, they get to keep their decked out tackle box and fishing pole. The fishing season is concluded with a tournament all the participants compete in. McFarland and volunteers, such as Pastor Gary Stump of Onward Church. “It’s not just spending time,” Stump said, “but earning the right to speak to them about life, and reinforcing what mom and dad say from a different perspective.”
Funding a pass-time and a mission
At FPD, McFarland sits with Bergen Nicholson, a middleschool student who has gone fishing with the Sarge for a couple of years now. Spread out over the desk is an array of McFarland’s Ballistic www.currentinfishers.com
McFarland, kneeling in front, and program participants gathering after a day of fishing. Baits. McFarland, an Army veteran and ex team leader on the department’s sniper team, knows a thing or two about the bullets he stripped to build his unique line of fishing lures. Ask him what his “Tango Down” bait, which features a .50 caliber round, is good for catching, and he’ll tell you a fish from “Jurassic Park.” He’s showing Bergen how to put together one of the lures. Bergen is the first person besides McFarland to put the baits together, which according to Stump, are tremendous at catching fish. Long before Ballistic Baits came along, McFarland and his wife, Charlotte were able to fund the program on their own and with the help of charitable donations. But in 2008, Charlotte became severely ill, and after two weeks of tests at the Mayo Clinic, was diagnosed with a rare form of a rare disease called sarchoidosis, which acts like and is treated like cancer. Until that point, Randy never knew Charlotte to sleep past 7 a.m. Charlotte could no longer go to work because of her health condition, making it impossible for the couple to fund the program without even more outside help. “I was praying to God to give me an idea to help offset some Current in Fishers
of the costs,” McFarland said. Today, Ballistic Baits and donations make the program financially possible. Charlotte still helps him when she can.
Building a program, finishing a lure
Bergen watches McFarland slip tiny components of one his signature baits over a wire. What’s Bergen’s favorite part of the fishing program? “Getting to spend time with him [McFarland],” he said. Lisa Nicholson, Bergen’s mother and a regular volunteer at Fishers Police Department, said having a friend and role model like McFarland is a highlight for Bergen. McFarland hears from graduates from the program every now and again. Years later a different Catch and Release graduate called him at FPD – just to say thank you. McFarland replied, “You made it. What you made was my decade.” “Again, this isn’t about fishing. It’s about time.” For more information on Ballistic Baits, a complete listing of the baits and McFarland’s program, head to ballisticbait.com. July 24, 2012 | 11
VIEWS
Opinion
Brightpoint HQ
It is our position that the pending sale of locally-based cell phone distributor Brightpoint is a significant concern for the entire Central Indiana region. Certainly protection of jobs for the 1,300 workers in Plainfield is paramount, but even if headcount remains steady the loss will be felt throughout the community. Corporate headquarters provide much more than just a sense of local pride. Support of local philanthropy and leadership in community activities are concentrated around a company’s decision makers. When those decisions are being made in other states, as will happen when the Brightpoint sale is completed, corporate engagement will inevitably diminish. Even if most local jobs are initially preserved, the longer-term trend can be expected to disfavor Central Indiana. No doubt this area offers a competitive location for distribution hubs, but just as certainly Brightpoint CEO Bob Laikin wanted his facilities to be close to him and to benefit his community. Our home-court advantage will be absent when future decisions of this sort are being made in California. Mr. Laikin and his team are to be commended for the business they built and the local support they’ve shown. We hope that they continue to be involved and advocate on behalf of Central Indiana while other entrepreneurs fill any voids left by Brightpoint’s HQ relocation.

Town’s parks crew has the right stuff
Negative space Commentary by Terry Anker Decorators refer to it as negative space – the absence of something, often clutter, which in its void makes apparent the more sublime elements of the arrangement. The point is that the deficiency of distraction allows one to focus on the essential elements of our environs with greatest clarity. Such is the case with the emerging understanding of my eldest. Now participating in a program through his school that arranges and chaperones an annual exchange program with its sister school in Japan, he finds himself 16 years old and now residing with a host family half way around the globe. Yet thanks to the wonders of Internet communication and ubiquitous Wi-Fi, we are able to solicit a daily update on his travails. Food is first on his list of daily observations – for anyone who has experience with teenage boys this comes as no surprise. Then comes comment on architecture, culture and people. But this week, he Tweeted something to the world (a Tweet is
an Internet-posted comment that is visible to all of his followers and to millions more who prowl these locales) that highlights the lucidity that only comes from great distance. He discovered, as many have before him, that one travels to learn about other countries, but instead learns as much or more about their own. I am anxious to discover what he’s garnered. Did he find a new understanding of American exceptionalism; or instead, did he find an ancient culture more refined and transcendent than our own? Perhaps the depth of his insight will be limited to noticing that the Japanese eat more fish and less beef. Regardless, he is learning that much is gained from perspective. It inspires me to get outside of myself and try to gain a little distance from my own beliefs. Wish me luck. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

The staff of the Fishers Parks and Recreation Dept. deserves to take a bow. Typically, these folks labor in relative obscurity, and they do a lot of heavy lifting behind the scenes to make sure a well-rounded program is presented to our town. The members of the department have worked hard to add programming, and they’re always helpful to the residents. It seems to us to be a welloiled machine - and you won’t find us characterizing a government agency as such very often. Next time you see a department member, give her or him a well-intentioned pat on the back. ••• Through our untrained political eyes, we view President Barack Obama actually defining what challenger Mitt Romney represents for and to the American people. If that truly is the case, Romney had best assert himself, or it’ll be lights out before the game even begins. It’s something for all of us to watch. Tell us if you disagree. ••• A friend recently told us his daughter is fired up for school … which, for her, begins next Monday. She attends a private school, but, still, whatever happened to summer? Back in the day, which is how it should be today, we were out the first Friday in June, back the day after Labor Day. If this kid we know wanted to go to summer camp, for instance, she would have barely made it to the fourth of the traditional eight weeks – given most camps’ calendars. There is too much time off during the year. We believe 180 days can be achieved and still give the kids a full summer. ••• The Department of Energy, which was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil, has beefed up to 16,000 employees and an annual budget of $29.5 billion. Oh, and we now import oil more than ever. What a joke! Sounds like a “green” initiative to us. And how!

Lessons from the silver screen Commentary by Dan Domsic
With a little bit of free time on my hands, I got to spend an evening with my other favorite story-telling medium last week – the movies. I finally had the chance to see “The Amazing Spider-Man,” starring Andrew Garfield (“The Social Network”) and Emma Stone (“Easy A,” “The Help”). Hollywood continues to cash in on comic book stories, and I was hoping to see a “Spidey” flick done right – because there’s nothing like a good dose of Stan Lee-inspired escapism mixed with awe-inspiring action sequences. The action delivered. The acting was great. There were a few plot advances that seemed out of whack, but for the most part, the writing was decent. In the end, “Spider-Man” didn’t feel like a typical comic book movie. How did the film distinguish itself from the likes of “Iron Man” and “The Avengers?” Peter Parker – Spidey himself – was flawed in a much more human, relatable way than any of the other super heroes battling on the silver screen or on TV. Those that like the Robert Downey, Jr., driven “Iron Man” films probably enjoy seeing the protagonist act like an uberrich, arrogant, criticism-proof celeb-u-hero. I know I do, but I can’t relate to that. What I can relate to is the new Spider-Man’s ability to make real mistakes. Yes, he gains new
found power, and he can do what he wants – but that doesn’t mean he knows how to do things right. It takes him time to learn, which leads to the audience not always liking the decisions he makes. When the masked hero finally gets things right, it all comes together splendidly. What’s even more special about this movie, in comparison to the glut of other stories ripped from DC and Marvel, is the familiar emphasis on how every decision a single person makes impacts other people’s lives. In the movie, Spider-Man’s decisions have extraordinary consequences, but in real life, the actions we take probably make a little bit less impact more often than not. Even if that impact was marginal, wouldn’t it be great if it was a positive one? The answer to that question is the big take-away from the flick, and one that I hope resonates with other viewers. It certainly did with me. As always, come chat with me during my “office hours” at the Starbucks on 116th Street off of I-69 from 3 to 5 p.m. on Tuesdays.

Sorry for the name calling, not stance Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Wow. I just returned from vacation where I was thankfully unable to access my e-mail, or should I say “hate mail.” I knew I’d upset some folks when I wrote a column on immunizations, I just didn’t think the response would be quite so intense. I haven’t received this much backlash since my controversial articles on homeschooling in 2009. I suppose when I attack parenting choices, however, I deserve it. That being said, I won’t apologize for my opinions on immunizations, though I will say I’m sorry for branding people who choose not to immunize as “idiots.” That was an unprofessional comment based purely on emotion. You certainly have the right to choose what’s best for your children, and like I said in the article, I support you 100 percent in that capacity. I don’t agree with your choice at all, but that doesn’t give me the right to call you an idiot, at least not in public. Most of the hate mail was from parents of autistic children, so let me address them first. I personally know several families with an autistic child. It is a devastating diagnosis and can drastically alter the lives of everyone involved. I don’t blame you for looking for a reason for why your child is different. I am surprised, however, that so many of you truly believe there is a global conspiracy among governments and pharmaceutical companies to not only suppress any connection between immunizations and www.currentinfishers.com
autism, but to possibly bring back the plague for population control and profit. Really? Clearly I have misjudged the CDC and Eli Lilly. And although most of the physicians and nurses who wrote in agreed with me, I did receive some negative comments from medical professionals, saying I knew nothing of science. “Why do you even care if your kids are vaccinated?” I care because even vaccinated children can get sick (that much I do know), and I really don’t want my household to be quarantined for a month because some unvaccinated kid brought measles to the local elementary school. Finally, let me remind all of you who constantly complain about my lack of professional journalism that I’M NOT A PROFESSIONAL JOURNALIST, nor do I claim to be! My column is posted under opinion or humor, not hard news. I write about what I think as a resident of Indianapolis suburbia. And contrary to what several readers believe, I don’t wear Prada or drive a Cadi, nor do I channel Hitler in my free time. I’m just an average working mom who frequently suffers from word vomit, the content of which occasionally warrants some hate mail. Peace out.

Tips for managing prescription medications Commentary by Mary Jean Vorwald It’s a fact of life. As we age, it’s likely we will need medications to maintain good health. While prescription drugs prolong life by controlling chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer, it’s important to learn how to take them properly. Effectively managing your prescriptions not only improves compliance, but also helps prevent over-medication and harmful drug interactions. Taking medications, especially more than once daily, can be challenging. That’s why good medication management begins by partnering with your primary care doctor and a reliable local pharmacist. These professionals will help oversee your prescriptions and answer questions. Other tips for managing your prescriptions are: • Maintain an up-to-date list of all current medications. Include the drug name, dosage, frequency and diagnosis. Ensure at least one family member has a copy of the list. • Bring your medication list or, preferably, all of your pill bottles (including over-thecounter medications and supplements) to all doctor appointments, including specialist visits (eye doctor, dermatologist, etc.). • Notify your primary care doctor whenever medications change (for example, after visiting
a specialist, hospitalization or surgery). Your pharmacist can also help in this situation to prevent duplication or drug interactions. • Over-the-counter medications, supplements and vitamins affect the body even if they are labeled “natural” or “organic.” When taken with certain prescription medications, over-the-counter products can cause side effects or dangerous interactions. Always check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking any new over-the-counter medicines or supplements. • Watch for drug confusion with sound-alike names, look-alike pills and combination medications. Ideally, you should know both the brand name and generic name for each medication you are taking. • Work with your doctor and/or pharmacist to develop a schedule for taking medications and supplements. Some may need to be taken in the morning or with meals. Then use medication organizers, such as pill boxes, to make your regimen easier.

IU Health earns best in state, national honor roll By Jordan Fischer • jordan@youarecurrent.com Indiana University Health last week earned the distinction of being the first Hoosier healthcare system to be named to the U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals “Honor Roll.” The title is the top distinction given to the best medical centers across the country, as determined by the national news magazine. “These hospitals are the kinds of medical centers that should be on your list when you need the best care,” said U.S. News Health Rankings Editor, Avery Comarow. “They are where other hospitals send the toughest cases.” IU Health was named No. 16 on the U.S. News Best Hospitals “Honor Roll” and 11 clinical programs, including cancer, cardiology, neu-
rosurgery and orthopedics, were cited among the top specialty programs in the United States. “We are honored and humbled to be part of a system that is held in such high esteem by our national medical peers,” said Jonathan Goble, president and chief executive officer, IU Health North Hospital and IU Health Saxony Hospital. “This is a big day for the 26,000 IU Health employees across the state that contribute to our success, day in and day out.” IU Health was also ranked the No. 1 hospital in the Indianapolis metropolitan area. St. Vincent Hospital and Health Center took second place and earned five nationally ranked specialties: ear, nose and throat; gastroenterology; gynecology; orthopedics; and neurology and neurosurgery.

Compression of realities Commentary by David Cain
Here’s a stunning reality, the iPhone is only five years old. The first version, now considered a relic, was introduced on January 9, 2007, and offered for sale on June 29, 2007. That little smart phone that now boasts sales in excess of 146 million units just turned five. In March of 2012, Encyclopedia Britannica announced it would not produce any new print editions. The 2010 edition is the last to be printed, ending a legacy that had continued since the first edition made its way to an information-starved world in 1768. Did Google replace Britannica’s print version or is it actually Wikipedia that stepped in the way? Regardless, the encyclopedias that graced the shelves of my childhood are now dusty artifacts for garage sales and antique malls perched next to the rotary dial phone. It’s hard to believe how quickly ‘normal’ gets
redefined. It is like raising kids, when you are around them you don’t realize how big they are getting. Before you know it, they are adults. Our realities are compressing to the point where we’ve lost all perspective of the past. Our reality is evolving at the speed of technology, creating an elusive normality that once provided comfort. The key is to stay in the today. The fundamentals haven’t changed. People must still have meaningful relationships and establish connections. People still rely on other people. People still need products and services that add value. People still need to have human connections. People still need you but they are just expecting you to offer yourself faster and better than before. David Cain works at Magnitude, a sales and marketing company.

Now Open Local owner brings nation-wide exercise franchise to Fishers
DOUGH
By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com
Get in Shape for Women, a new exercise center that touts customized personal training, opened at 11720 Olio Rd. this month. The location is owned by David VanWye, who also operates another branch of the franchise out of neighboring Carmel. VanWye said the franchise has approximately 100 locations across the nation. VanWye said he chose to expand to Fishers based on potential customers and especially considering the positive press Fishers has received on a national scale in the past. “It’s a good fit for our type of business,” he said. Get in Shape for Women’s mission is simple. VanWye noted that Indiana is one of the most obese states in the nation – and the business is out to change that one client at a time. His centers offer small group personal training (there are up to four women in each group), Old standby – Wells Fargo (WFC) is unique among bank stocks, as it’s been a steady grower for decades. It’s currently trading at only 10 times forward earnings, with a yield of 2.8%. -cnnmoney.com

Are Married Parents Really Better for Children?
How many times have you heard a divorced (or soon to be divorced) parent state “We stayed together for the kids”? We hear it all the time. Even when recounting horrible acts of deceit, abuse or cheating, these people seemed to think that they were doing what was better for their children: Stay married.
Annual Summer Cleaning Sale 25% off all Schulte Closet Organizing Systems
For years researchers have been trying to find direct evidence as to whether it is better for parents to “suck it up” and stay together or divorce and move on. The evidence is divided. Many studies suggest that children of divorced parents are more likely to grow up poor, have behavioral problems or experience health problems. However, new studies are starting to address the quality of the family relationships. It has been found that the quality of the relationship between parents definitely matters. According to a study from the Center for Law and Social Policy, children who grow up in married families with high conflict experience lower emotional well-being than children who live in low-conflict families, and they may experience as many problems as children of divorced or never-married parents. Research indicates that marital conflict interferes with the quality of parenting. Furthermore, experiencing chronic conflict between married parents is inherently stressful for children, and children learn poor relationship skills from parents who aren’t able to solve problems amicably. When parents have a highly discordant relationship, children are often better off in the long run if their parents divorce. Between 30 and 40 percent of divorces of couples with children are preceded by a period of chronic discord between the parents. In these situations, children do better when their parents divorce than if they stay married.

Most parents try their hardest to be the best parent they can be. We make many sacrifices in the name of raising our children to be happy, well-adjusted adults. No matter whether you are a single parent, divorced or married, one of the most important things you can do is to create happy, emotionally healthy homes for them to be raised.

Life is backwards
Commentary by Mike Colaw
Not too long ago I went to visit my grandfather in the nursing home. There he sat, staring almost through me, Alzheimer’s slowly eroding away even the limited memory he had left. I spoke up; “Grandpa, it’s me, Mike” He just looked at me with a vacant stare. I am not totally sure I connected with him at all. It is hard to believe that he was once Dr. Colaw, a brilliant influential leader. I have many memories of conversations with him in his home talking about the purpose of life, leadership strategies, even how to deal with situations that just deeply frustrated me. There I sat gazing into the same face, yet it didn’t seem like the same man. Grandpa finally passed away on July 18, 2012. I miss my grandpa. Sometimes I wonder why God lets that happen. Not just the Alzheimer’s, the whole system. Sometimes I feel like life is backwards. Let me see if I can explain. Like I said, Grandpa was intelligent, a great leader, a sought after speaker and an amazing mentor to me. All of his life experiences helped shape him into a remarkable man. Have you ever noticed people that finally begin to “get” their roles are at retirement age? Or that parents who finally begin to “get” how to raise kids are finished parenting? What about people who are masters at specific trades, like a craftsman? They spend years mastering something like woodworking and then their
body gives out and arthritis kicks in. Why? Why is this the way life works? I know as a young man I have often been handed tasks a little life experience would have helped drastically with. We all have to start these with little or no experience and figure it all out from the beginning. Why is it that the best in their fields are often the ones nearing the end? Why is it those who have filled their experience and intellectual reservoir are forced to let go? It just seems backwards. Unless the purpose is to be a conduit and not a reservoir… What if it is all about passing something along? What are you passing along? Who is pouring into you? Romans 5:3-5, “Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.” As I look back now I see what Grandpa was doing. Brilliant Dr. Colaw was infusing me with a time transcendent hope. ‘Hope in what?’ you may ask. Find a Bible and read the rest of Romans 5. Mike Colaw is the director of ministries at Trinity Church.

Gardener stumped by color Commentary by Holly Lindzy
By far one of the most adaptable summer flowering shrubs is the Rose of Sharon – glossy foliage, beautiful bloom, easy care and quick to fill a space. It’s an Indiana summer staple. And I had to have one. Throughout the years, time and again, I would go to purchase one for my garden and get stumped on color selection. Every time. White, purple, blue-purple, pink . . . what’s a girl to do? Years passed, gardens evolved – minus the Rose of Sharon. In catalogs I would see “Tri Color Rose of Sharon!”, like it was some hot commodity which meant it was trending and that’s not my style, so I’d pass. What’s “hot right now” is of little interest to me. Then one day I was working in a yard of a friend removing some plants to put in three good sized Serviceberry. Part of the removal included some one-foot-tall volunteers from a nearby Rose of Sharon, of which I had no clue the color. On a whim, I set them in a bucket to take with me. There’s no crime in that – right? So, home I toted two decent starts of the unknown Rose of Sharon, planted them in the corner of my garden and watched them grow, green and perky, to about three feet that first
Rose of Sharon year. Next summer, to my delight, it bloomed in two colors – white and purple. It couldn’t be more appropriate. Now every year I look forward to seeing my “bi-color” surprise Rose of Sharon, and retelling the story. No more indecision and angst. Like closing your eyes and dropping a finger in the phone book, I threw caution to the wind and left it to chance. And now it’s all mine. Sort of.

New cosmetic kitchen remodel Commentary by Larry Greene ORIGINAL KITCHEN: This home is located in the Huntington Chase subdivision on the west side of Carmel. The current owners built the home in 1996 as a spec home with the current kitchen as is. REASONS FOR REMODELING: According to the owner, “We remodeled the kitchen for three reasons: the lighting, the flooring and the storage space. The original lighting was not adequate, as there was no lighting over the peninsula or under cabinet lighting, so it was very hard to work in the kitchen. The original tile floors were cracking and the grout was coming out. It turns out that one side of the kitchen was 5/8” lower than the other side. The subflooring was installed incorrectly and making the tile crack. Finally, the existing kitchen storage was minimal, so I had to store many of my kitchen items in the basement. There was a pantry, but there was no space for pots and pans etc.” MORE STORAGE WITH CABINETRY: The homeowner is thrilled with the additional storage space. “My favorite part of the remodel is the cabinets we had built. I wanted more storage in the kitchen, but I did not want to have another piece of furniture that did not fit with the kitchen. Having the cabinetry built to be cohesive with the other cabinets gave me the look and storage that I wanted. We also really like the addition of the bench, coat hooks and shelves

in the entryway to the kitchen. It has made a big impact on the way we live in the house, as we have a place for coats, gloves, family calendar and papers. All of the additional storage now allows me to keep kitchen essentials in the kitchen, rather than the basement.
FINISH DETAILS: The homeowner also enjoys the new functionality. “The granite countertops give me additional serving space, while allowing me the peninsula for prep space. We added many electrical outlets to the new cabinet areas too, which help a great deal when we are entertaining. The new peninsula and under-cabinet lighting has greatly improved the kitchen as well. It is much easier to work in there, and the area is much less dreary.” Larry Greene is the president of Case Design/Remodeling, a full-service design/build firm serving Hamilton County.
