“ Over three years I have suffered from terrible headaches, I also had low back pain. I was told there was no hope for my pain condition and was put on addictive medications that affected my everyday functioning. I am simply delighted that I am pain free after 3 treatments by Dr. Srini who explained the science behind my pain condition. He has proven that my incurable pain condition was indeed curable! ”….. Edwina Foust after receiving permanent pain relief from headaches.

“I had severe leg pain for more than five years but I am simply delighted it is gone after treatments at Advanced Interventional Pain Center!”.....Michelle Copeland “I had severe low back pain for seven long years and failed surgical treatments. I could not believe that I am pain free after just three treatments from Advanced Interventional Pain Center!”.....Roberta Marlott. “I have had pain all my life as far as I can remember. I had failed back surgery and failed spinal cord stimulator. After just three treatments my back and leg pain have completely vanished!”..... Billy Hughes. “I had thirty years of back pain, all vanished with just three treatments at Advanced Interventional Pain Center”.....Ladonna Bullock

My name is Vicki Hinkle. I have struggled with foot pain for many, many years. I have had treatment and surgery from several very experienced, sympathetic doctors over the years with some results. As time went on the foot pain increased to the point to cause life style changes. I enjoyed outdoor hiking, long walks with loved ones and occasionally a day of shopping with friends. I had accepted with sadness; the reality those days were gone. A family member had gone to Dr. Srinivasan for back pain and had experienced wonderful results. I was encouraged to inquire about possible help with my foot pain. I had wonderful results in less than a week after my treatment by Dr. Srinivasan. It has now been several months; I am still pain free. I am able to exercise, accomplished weight loss and enjoy outdoor activities once again. I encourage anyone dealing with pain of any kind to schedule a consultation with Dr. Srinivasan and decide for yourself. The options available to you may give you some of your life back too!

“I am happy as can be! It is wonderful to have no back pain after the Laser Treatments from Dr. Srini”……… Robert Russell who is still back pain free at 8 months after treatment, is the world’s first patient to receive the minimally invasive Deep Tissue Low Intensity Laser Therapy (DT-LILT™) for failed back surgery syndrome. DT-LILT™ involves a new contact laser device for selectively destroying the C pain fibers while leaving the healthy tissues intact. DT-LILT™ is invented by Dr. Srini and is first of its kind in the world. DT-LILT™ is NOT FDA approved and is available only at Advanced Interventional Pain Center.

“I had foot pain from a sports injury for 6 months which vanished with just one treatment at Advanced Interventional Pain Center!”.....John Linder

“ I had severe tail bone pain and sciatica after falling on a hard object. For five years I had suffered in severe pain visited many treatment facilities and have spent over $ 60,000 in treatments without any pain relief. I am simply delighted that after just one treatment I am pain free”….. Barbara Wolfe, one year after treatment.

“ I would say the future of pain care is here. With terrible leg pain I had hardly played any golf for the last 2 years. After getting just one treatment from Dr. Srini, I cannot believe that I completed the entire 18 holes with absolutely no pain ”….. Otis Oliver, after permanent pain relief from peripheral vascular pain. He does not require surgery.

OUR VIEWS

It is our position that Hamilton County students are fortunate to have talented, dedicated, enthusiastic and, above all, effective teachers influencing them on a daily basis. We also find the amount of support and cooperation the teachers get from most parents to be impressive. We believe that cooperation from both parents and teachers is essential in the proper upbringing of our children. They need structure at all times of the day and that can only be achieved by a united effort between the two parties. The teachers we have in Hamilton County are some of the best and most dedicated in the state. Some even spend their well-earned free time working on lessons that will help our students remember the material more effectively. While the students may enjoy the lessons and learn a lot in the classroom, it is the parents who are vital in helping retain that information when they take an active role in helping with homework. We understand that it can be tough to come home after a long day of work and sit at the kitchen table solving math problems, but without that help, our teachers would be facing a tougher challenge than what is already posed.

Coaches training

It is our position that those volunteering to coach should be highly praised for their willingness to spend their free time helping our kids with their respective sports. We also believe that these coaches should go through training when it comes to dealing with our athletes, no matter the age of the player. All stages of childhood have their separate problems and these athletes, hopefully, see their coaches as role models with whom they can talk. We need to be sure that these coaches are trained to deal with problems because giving the wrong information can be disastrous. Not only do the coaches need to know how to deal with their players, but parents also can cause problems that need to be dealt with. While we understand that the time requirements of coaching are great, we believe that whether they like the idea, they could be put into a sensitive situation and need to know how to effectively deal with the problem. And while we appreciate the time and effort that coaches put in with our players, we believe they should receive the proper training so they can be ready for issues both on and off the field.

A (brief) interview with Martin Short

FROM THE BACKSHOP New cardiac tools and tax-money savings Grants are wonderful things, and in this case especially so. They can be classified, in many cases, as “savers.” Such is the situation with 10 cardiac monitors the Fishers Fire Dept. recently upgraded at a total cost of $300,000. Not only do the upgrades allow for transmitting of information to a hospital, so that the emergency room workers can be prepared for incoming patients, but an Assistance to Firefighters Grant covered half the cost, saving taxpayer dollars. The key here, of course, is boosting the chance that a cardiac patient will survive an episode as a result of the new technology. The department says the new monitors are being used daily. Kudos to all involved. ••• On the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks on our great nation, Hamilton County Firefighters Local 4416 and the City of Noblesville will play host to a remembrance ceremony at 2 p.m. on the west side of the old county courthouse. In memory of those who scarified a great deal, speakers – among them Noblesville Fire Dept. Chaplain Stephen Schultze, Hamilton County Commissioner Steve Dillinger and Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear – will address the attendees. A beam from the World Trade Center site, or Ground Zero, will be

Brian Kelly & Steve Greenberg on display and sometime later will be part of a permanent Hamilton County memorial to 9/11. We urge your attendance. ••• Nobody likes to talk about obituaries, except for some media outlets in our midst. Those death notices represent revenue centers for some of our counterparts. Not here at Current Publishing, though. When you lose a loved one or a friend, or you know of someone who has, please encourage him or her, or the funeral home handling arrangements, to send an obituary and photograph to our managing editor, Jordan Fischer at jordan@youarecurrent.com. We will publish those at no cost, because there is no joy in capitalizing on others’ grief.

By Jordan Fischer jordan@youarecurrent.com Author’s note: Current was given the opportunity last week for a one-on-one with comedian and actor Martin Short before his performance at the Palladium at Carmel’s Center for the Performing Arts. Excerpts from that interview are presented below: It seems like a lot of our big comedians here in the states are Canadian exports. Dan Aykroyd, Jim Carrey, Mike Myers come to mind… and you yourself are originally from Ontario. Why are Canadians so much funnier than us? Short: “I think that for character work, a slight advantage is that we get (American networks), CBC, CTV, and BBC and BBC1. It’s kind of like being the middle sibling who can take shots at the other two. I also think the Canadian spirit is a little more sarcastic. I did Second City in Chicago, and Toronto was the sister company. The Chicago show was always politically smart, and then you’d go up to Canada and you’d have someone playing two drunken truckers. The Canadian shows were more character driven.” You were a repertory player on Saturday Night Live during the 1984-1985 season, along with other recognizable names like Jim Belushi and Billy Crystal. Coming from troupes like Second City, what was that like? Short: “It’s like being shot out of a cannon, I guess. I liken it to… it’s like final exams every

week. You could be on a show Saturday night, and your stuff went well. You’d go to the party afterward and feel like the king of the castle. Then on Sunday night, you’d get that pit in your stomach like ‘Oh my god, I don’t have anything for next week.’ Lorne (Michaels) would ask you if you had anything for the week, and you’d kind of fake your way through it. By Monday night if you didn’t have anything, you’d feel like the biggest loser in the world… and you’d think, it was only 48 hours ago that you felt like the king.” You’ve worked on and off screen with a lot of recognizable names. What don’t we see after the cameras are turned off? Short: “I think that the reality is that anyone who has any kind of success in show business has to have luck. Yes, they have to have luck. But they also have to be studious. Usually the most successful people are the most concerned about it. They have to be dedicated to their craft… but part of the job is to make it look easy. When Steve Martin goes on the Letterman show… he’s a good friend of mine, and he’ll call me up two months before and ask me how this joke works. A great surgeon makes it look easy, but believe me, before a big operation he gets nervous.” For the rest of the interview, visit the Current online at www.currentinfishers.com

Quickie: Losing a V.I.P. pet COMMENTARY By Danielle Wilson After four weeks, I finally feel I can write about the demise of our son’s pet gecko, Quickie, without short-circuiting my laptop with tears. A few months back, we learned Quickie was in kidney failure; the diagnosis hit our 10-yearold particularly hard. He had received Quickie as a sixth birthday present and watched the tiny lizard grow from two inches to 10. They had been roommates the entire time. Quickie’s infrared heat lamp was the perfect night light; it dispelled closetlurking zombies and nightmare-starring aliens. Each time we went out of town this summer, we didn’t expect to see Quickie alive when we returned, so we bid many farewells. It wasn’t until our annual family reunion in late July that our goodbyes would prove necessary. But I lost all composure when we broke the tragic news to our son. At the time, I told myself my pain stemmed from the hurt I knew my son was feeling; any mother would weep with her child while he grieved. I couldn’t possibly be upset by a reptile dying! I returned home that night to an unusually quiet house, empty except for our tabby, Ginger. I knew I had to do something with Quickie; she had been dead for more than 48 hours, but I just couldn’t strike up the courage to enter our son’s room. I stalled with unpacking, checking email, even doing dishes. At 8 p.m., I couldn’t

find any reason to put it off, and went to the garage to grab a shovel. The first pang of the metal into the hard dirt down by the creek set off waterworks. I didn’t even try to stop them. I cried for my son, I cried for, which Quickie and I cried for myself. Quickie was my first real pet, too. As a child I only had one dog, who ran away after three days, and a couple goldfish that died after a few days. Andrew’s gecko was the only animal with which I ever had a significant hand in raising, and now she was gone. After completing the shallow grave, I trudged back up to the house to get Quickie as the tears cascaded down my cheeks. I carefully wrapped her in plastic and carried her outside. This time I’m quite certain my sobs could be heard around the neighborhood, but I didn’t care. I managed to choke out a few words before covering her with a rock. It bore a simple, Sharpie-penned elegy: “Here lies Quickie. 2007-2011. V.I.P.” My 7-year-old came up with the last bit. I know she meant R.I.P., but somehow her initials felt better. For Quickie was our son’s, my, Very Important Pet. Danielle Wilson is a Carmel resident and contributing columnist. You may e-mail her at danielle@ currentincarmel.com.

RELATIONSHIPS By Doug Jeschke How do you stand up for yourself and still be empathetic with someone whose problems are becoming your problems at work or at home? My brother-in-law has a co-worker who is continually late on shared work assignments, submits incomplete work and generally performs poorly on a regular basis. As a team member in the same small department, my brother-in-law often feels he has to pick up the slack. It is important for him to have good work relationships and likes his co-workers. To further complicate things, he knows that the other employee, let’s call him Bob, is going through a challenging time at home with family issues and his spouse’s job loss. So he was asking me about how he can be considerate of what’s going on in Bob’s life, but not have to feel like he is being put upon and taken advantage of? The key to approaching a conflict like this is to understand the two desires are separate. Being empathetic about someone’s problems, or even shortcomings, is a separate function from having fair expectations at work or in other relationships. Being supportive and understanding means being an empathetic listener about Bob’s struggles and encouraging positive actions Bob could take. In the workplace, empathy should mean communicating about the first signs of any mistake or poor performance. Maybe my

brother-in-law Bob could even work together to develop a system or action plan to help him perform duties more effectively. Relaxing expectations for another person may be an appropriate response during a difficult time in the person’s life, but it is not necessarily the answer. If picking up the slack is going to create resentment and drive a wedge into the long-term relationship, it is not the right thing to do. I told my brother-in-law if he decides to continue to bear the brunt of Bob’s oversights for a while, he should not do it silently. Bob likely knows he is messing up at work and without an honest conversation, he may assume hard feelings are building up, or worse, come to feel his lower level of performance is acceptable. If picking up the slack is the right thing to do, my brother-in-law needs to sit Bob down, tell him what he knows about Bob’s difficulties and exactly what he is willing to do to help out and for how long. He also needs to be honest (and supportive) about Bob’s needs and help him take steps to correct the personal problems that are invading their shared workplace.

Can you officially flunk parenting? COMMENTARY By Susan Bryant Seeing “needs improvement” or “unsatisfactory” on a report card is disappointing, but imagine if you received that evaluation from a teacher about your parenting skills. Earlier this year, state lawmakers in Florida proposed a bill called “parental involvement and accountability in public schools.” The bill was intended to set accountability standards for parents of students pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. Parents of children ages pre-K to third grade, would be given report cards assessing parental involvement by the teacher. Along with overall attendance and tardy rates, parents would be graded on their ability to communicate with teachers, their children’s preparation for tests and homework, and ensuring their children receive proper meals and an adequate amount of sleep. Some give it an A+ Those in favor of the bill say teachers can only be expected to do so much when it comes to determining how successful a student is in school. Parents need to be held more responsible for providing the home environment necessary for students to thrive. Children would benefit by parents having a clear set of expectations - and being evaluated on how well they are achieving these goals. Proponents of the idea feel this is in

the best interest of the child and may encourage those parents who receive “unsatisfactory” grades to improve their parenting skills. Others give it an F Critics of the argument say parents understand their children’s needs best and how they choose to parent should not be mandated by the government. Also, it is unfair to judge all parents on the same criteria. Families in which both parents work feel they could be graded poorly on their ability to be involved at school when compared to families where one parent is at home and can volunteer in the classroom or organize school events. Others feel older children should be primarily responsible for his or her success, instead of the parents. Ultimately, the Parental Involvement and Accountability in Public Schools bill in Florida didn’t pass. It’s an interesting debate, however, with both sides having compelling arguments on how children are best served. It remains to be seen if the issue gains interest in the future in other states. For now, be glad your kid isn’t threatening to take away your TV privileges for a bad report card. Susan Bryant is a freelance writer and mother of two in Fishers.

Humane Society to open satellite center today By Robert Herrington robert@youarecurrent.com The Humane Society for Hamilton County is opening a new, satellite adoption center located at Hamilton Town Center Mall today. The grand opening of the center will be held from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and will feature shelter dogs and cats for adoption and raffle prizes from Three Dog Bakery. KJ from WZPL’s Smiley Morning Show will be on-site from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. “For anyone who has visited the shelter in the last few months, they know how full and overwhelmed we have been with a non-stop flow of animal intakes,” said HSHC Executive Director Rebecca Stevens. “That is why this satellite location is such a blessing to us in that we believe it will create many more adoption opportunities for our animals.” Stevens said the new adoption center will initially be open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays with hopes of ramping up to Saturdays and Sundays in time for the holidays. The center will be fully equipped to do on-site adoptions and welcomes visitors to bring their dogs by to sniff and mingle with potential new siblings. A minimum of 10 dogs and cats will be featured each Saturday for adoption but will head back to the shelter at the end of each day if homes are not found. “We are incredibly grateful for the support we’ve received from Hamilton Town Center’s management team and Simon for making it possible for even more animals to find the forever homes they deserve,” said Stevens. “We

One thousand flags will be placed in honor of past, present soldiers By Kevin Kane kevin@youarecurrent.com A local business is inviting the public to join in remembering Sept. 11 in a unique way. Indianapolis-based Buchanan Group will create what it’s calling the “Field of Flags” on the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks at the Oaklawn Memorial Gardens in Fishers. The event will include the placing of 1,000 flags to honor those who lost their lives in the attacks as well as to pay tribute to the men and women currently serving in the armed forces. “We have put up flags every year in the past since the attacks occurred, but this year we’re going to do a program, too,” said Maureen Lindley, who is coordinating the event for Buchanan Group. The program will begin at 8:30 a.m., and Lindley said it will follow a timeline that mirrors that of the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. In addition to the 100 Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts’ placing the 1,000 flags by hand, the program

will include remarks from keynote speaker, Indiana’s Adjutant General, Major Martin Umbarger of the National Guard as well as Josh Bleill of the Indianapolis Colts. Bleill lost both of his legs to a roadside bomb while serving in Iraq in 2006. He now works in community relations for the Colts. The public is invited to the free event, but flags will be sold for $50 each. The “Field of Flags” will remain in place for about one week after Sept. 11, Lindley said. After that, those who purchased flags at the event will be able to take them home. There also will be a silent auction at the event, featuring items donated by more than 20 corporate sponsors and individuals. All profits, Lindley said, will be donated to the National Guard Relief Fund, which assists the families of deployed soldiers. “It is a family event,” Lindley said. “We want to encourage people to bring their families out.”

Sept. 11 ceremony a time to remember, reflect By Robert Herrington robert@youarecurrent.com Hamilton County Firefighters Local 4416 with assistance from the city of Noblesville will be hosting a remembrance ceremony for the 10th anniversary of 9/11. The ceremony will be held at 2 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 11 on the west side of the historic Hamilton County courthouse as a time to reflect and remember. Firefighters, first responders, and Americans who made the ultimate sacrifice during the events of 9/11 will be honored. “We had a couple of people go out (to Ground Zero),” said Local 4416 President Tony Murray of the Noblesville Fire Department. “The immediate reaction was to help, to offer assistance and do something.” Murray said that the role of firefighters has changed since 9/11. “On Sept. 11 we recognized that our jobs had changed forever,” he said. “We’re now trained in weapons of mass destruction, terrorist attack situations and hazardous materials.” The ceremony’s featured speakers will include Noblesville Fire Department Chaplain Stephen Schultze, Hamilton County Commissioner

Steve Dillinger and Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear. Murray said a group of county firefighters who served in the military and were deployed overseas will present the laying of the wreath. A steel beam that was recovered from the site of the World Trade Center will be on display. Local 4416 secured the beam which will eventually be featured in a permanent memorial in Noblesville. Murray said the memorial is currently in the design phase and will be incorporated as part of the Riverwalk behind the Hamilton County Judicial Center. “We applied for and received a piece of the steel beam from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey,” Murray explained. The piece of the steel beam has been on display at various community events throughout Hamilton County and Lapel since Local 4416 received it in April. “Many people from Hamilton County would never have the opportunity to go out to Ground Zero and see the World Trade Center site,” said Murray. “It’s really been amazing to see people’s response – the welling up of emotions. It’s come full circle 10 years later. It’s very much alive in people’s hearts and minds.”

The skinny on salt

Current sits down with Hamilton County school officials to find out what has changed in the lunchroom By Jordan Fischer jordan@youarecurrent.com Gone are the days when a student could look forward to a lunch of a heaping plate of French fries and greasy pizza, says Andria Ray, director of nutrition and food services for Hamilton Southeastern school district. “What anybody thinks about is the old way,” Ray said. “Fatty meats, mashed potatoes and gravy with meatloaf… greasy pizza. Now in school food services, we’ve taken a lot of steps in reducing fats, using lean meats. We’ve taken out all fryers in our elementary schools. Fries are only available at the high school level, and only twice a week.” Today’s school lunchroom walls are lined with posters about portion sizes, varied diet and nutrition. The dessert table now holds fresh fruit and vegetable trays – and the dip is more likely to be hummus than ranch. The new cafeteria lineup “The biggest push was probably five years ago,” said Sue Dunn, who has been the food service coordinator for the Noblesville Schools District for 12 years. “All of our milk offerings are now skim or 1 percent. Eighty percent or more of our breads are whole grain or whole wheat, and that would include chicken nuggets and chicken patties. Pizzas have a whole grain crust.” Noblesville Schools, which will serve lunch to an estimated 6568 percent of its 9,500 students this year, added a dietician to its staff this year and has phased deep fryers almost entirely out of the district. “When I first started, frying was very common,” Dunn said. “Fries were a big, big item. We gradually took them off the line, and off the menus, and I think the kids are pretty used to it now.” The Carmel Clay Schools District has taken a similar, gradual approach to lunchroom changes, according to Amy Anderson, director of food services for CCS. “People are much more accepting of slow changes,” Anderson said. “You’re not going to take something and remove all of the flavor from it and expect them to eat it.” Catch-22 in the lunchroom According to Anderson, school food services have to strike a delicate balance between making food healthier and educating students about what it is they’re actually eating. “Our hamburgers have cherries in them, because it’s healthier,” Anderson said. “But do you tell kids that, and risk them not eating them anymore? You almost have to write one menu for the kids and another for the parents so they know what they’re actually eating.” And, according to Nick Verhoff, executive director of business and operations for Westfield Washington Schools, cost is always a factor. “I get asked by parents all the time, who say they could pack a lunch for cheaper than their students get at school,” Verhoff said. “Well, yes, you could, because you’re not paying labor, and benefits, and utilities. And that’s in addition to the food costs.” Lunch for an intermediate student in the WWS district is $2.50. At Carmel, it’s $2.25. Hamilton Southeastern charges $2.05 for K-6 students, and a K-6 lunch at Noblesville costs $1.75. But lunches packed by parents can often be a worse option, ac-

www.youarecurrent.com

cording to Rachel Miller, a dietician for CCS. “I’ve seen students come in with lunches packed with a slice of pizza, a fruit pie from McDonald’s and a can of soda,” Miller said. HSE’s Ray said her district has ramped up efforts to educate students about food nutrition, and has seen positive results so far. “I think a lot of times kids don’t realize how their food has been modified to make it healthy,” Ray said. “But now, it’s too important for kids to understand how critical it is they eat healthy and the benefits to them.” The great soft drink debate With 17 percent of children in the U.S., roughly 12.5 million, classified as obese, some schools have received heavy criticism for vending machine and soft drink sales. Although all four major school districts in Hamilton County do have contracts with Coca-Cola, school officials across the board say the machines are turned off during the day, including lunch time, and some like Hamilton Southeastern have even gone so far as to remove non-soda products such as Powerade from lunch time offerings as well. “It’s too much sugar and electrolytes for students during lunch time,” said HSE’s Ray “I don’t see students doing workouts in the lunch room.” Hamilton Southeastern recently signed a new contract with Coca-Cola that would bring $130,000 to the district. Although the contract was eventually unanimously approved, board member Sylvia Shepler and others voiced concerns about continuing to provide soda access in the schools. “I have a philosophical problem with this,” Shepler said. “We’re making money off of our kids’ health.” Monies received from school soft drink contracts go toward supplementing athletic, support and building funding for districts, said Nick Verhoff, executive director of business and operations for Westfield Washington Schools. “It’s not the lifeblood of any program,” Verhoff said, “but obviously every bit helps.” While some states have banned soft drink sales in schools completely, California being the first in 2003, a 2008 study published in the September issue of the “Journal of the American Dietetic Association” questioned a conclusive link between school soft drink sales and childhood obesity. According to the study, authored by Meenakshi Fernandes, then a doctoral fellow at the RAND Corporation, students who attended schools without soft drink sales consumed only 4 percent fewer soft drinks than other students. “We need to take a more comprehensive look at environments around schools, what (students) are doing at home and after school,” Fernandes said in an interview with U.S. News and World Report. “Perhaps we can have a greater impact through interventions this way.” CCS’s Anderson agreed. “A child consumes five lunches a week with us,” she said. “The average kid eats three meals and a snack every day, so that’s 28 meals a week. That’s 18 percent of meals a week they’re eating with us.” “We can influence that 18 percent of what they eat,” Anderson said. “I cannot influence the other 82 percent.”

Proposed USDA guidelines for 2012 could have major impacts on school food. One of the biggest items in the USDA’s crosshairs? Sodium. We interact with sodium most commonly as table salt, which is used by food providers as a preservative and flavor enhancer, especially in frozen and canned foods. A USDA food study reported that the typical school lunch can contain anywhere from 1,000 – 1,5000 mg of sodium, or from 40 - 60 percent of a student’s daily recommended sodium intake of 2,300 mg. The proposed guidelines would look to decrease sodium levels below 800 mg for a school lunch, with further reductions built in gradually over a 10 year period. Excess sodium intake is linked to high blood pressure, a major factor in stroke, kidney and heart disease. In Hamilton County, school dieticians report proactive measures already underway, among them: no-salt seasonings, rinsing canned fruits and vegetables to remove excess salt, and removing salt shakers from the lunchroom altogether. It’s important to note that a healthy amount of natural sodium is critical to regulate blood pressure and volume, and for muscle and nerve function.

The trouble with contractions GRAMMAR LESSON By Brandie Bohney The trouble with contractions, it seems, is remembering that pesky apostrophe. Just ask Old Navy. For those of you who might have missed the glut of coverage of Old Navy’s recent grammar snafu, let me fill you in. Old Navy carries a line of spirit-wear shirts with the licensed logos of around 70 college athletic teams. It markets the line heavily, and while Old Navy cannot be counted on as one of the highest quality retailers available, it can definitely be counted as one of the cheapest. Apparently that cheapness extends to their ability or desire to hire decent proofreaders. Old Navy recently rolled out (and very shortly thereafter rolled back in) a line of t-shirts emblazoned with a football with a team logo and the school name beneath the ball. Above the ball, though, were the words, “Lets Go!” You see the problem, do you not? What were these teams letting go of, exactly? Somehow the enormous apostrophe error was either not noticed or ignored, and shirts were distributed to stores nationwide and via the internet. This wasn’t like the apostrophe cover-up at the Children’s Place outlet that I wrote about last year (where the apostrophe in Girl’s Can Do Anything! was covered up by being drawn into a butterfly rather than removed entirely from the otherwise butterfly-free design). Oh, no. The

www.youarecurrent.com

Children’s Place found their error and covered it up. It wasn’t a great cover, but the shirt was at the outlet and not in regular stores and online. Old Navy’s blunder was much, much worse. First of all, I refuse to believe that no one recognized the error until the online ads and images were posted and the shirts were displayed in the stores. Much like the 3,500 Nike Hoodto-Coast Race Offical t-shirts distributed to race officials in 2009, I think the flaw was noticed, but not until late in the process. Unlike Nike, though, which didn’t have the luxury of time on its side, Old Navy could have pulled the shirts, reprinted them correctly, and distributed them with less fuss and certainly much less negative publicity. Then again, maybe the publicity is the point. Perhaps upon noticing the error somewhere along the line, some bean counter said, “You know, it’ll cost big bucks to reprint these, and we’ll have to do it sooner or later, but if we wait, we’re sure to get a ton of press about the glaring error. Any press is good press, right?” Mission accomplished. That’s one more store I can’t frequent for its of lack of grammatical sense. Brandie Bohney is a grammar enthusiast and former English teacher. If you have a grammarrelated question, please email her at bbthegrammarguru@gmail.com.

ISSUE #33

CLINICIAN SPOTLIGHT

Know your body. It could save your life.

Julie Schnieders, MSN, NP Women’s Health

Routine exams such as Pap smears aren’t always enough. Pay attention to the signals your body sends you to detect problems early. As a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner for St.Vincent, Julie Schnieders is an expert on a wide range of women’s health issues. She holds a special interest in menopause and pelvic health, including urinary incontinence. Make no mistake, routine tests and checkups are extremely important to a woman’s overall health. But they shouldn’t be the only information you rely on to stay healthy. It’s vitally important that you listen to what your body tells you, too. It may provide you with the earliest signs of a potentially life-threatening disease — particularly when it comes to certain types of cancer.

Other symptoms of ovarian cancer include back pain, pain with intercourse and constipation. “But those are typically later signs,” Schnieders said. “Part of the issue is that women are the last people to take care of themselves,” she continued. “That’s why I insist that my patients be strong advocates for their own health, and that starts with listening to their bodies, and following up appropriately.

“This is not to say you should be scared that every little thing requires medical attention,” said St.Vincent Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner Julie Schnieders, RN, MSN. “But it’s important to pay attention when your body changes or does something unusual.”

“Any time you have a change in your body, you need to take it seriously. Especially if you have a family history of a certain type of cancer, whether it’s breast, ovarian or something else. For instance, you should never let anyone tell you that you’re too young to get breast cancer. And never let anyone tell you that a lump in your breast is ‘nothing.’ You are your own first line of defense,” said Schnieders.

Schnieders says some diseases are so subtle in their presentation that they often require an especially vigilant person to detect their symptoms. Take ovarian cancer, for example. “One of the most common early signs for ovarian cancer is persistent bloating,” Schnieders said. “A lot of women don’t think much of it. But if you’ve been bloated for more than two weeks, you need to get an ultrasound on your ovaries.”

Capt. Critic’s DVD pick

X-Men: First Class

PG-13, 132 minutes

Latest X-Main film starts at story’s beginning

DVDs By Chris Lloyd “X-Men: First Class” was a totally unnecessary, but engaging reboot of the super-hero franchise that kicked off a cinematic craze for costumed do-gooders. The movie’s time period is set 40 years earlier than the original film and focuses on the relationship between Charlex Xavier, aka Professor X (James McAvoy), and Erik Lehnsherr, otherwise known as Magneto (Michael Fassbender). The motivations for the time shift are suspect. The first set of films fixed specific timelines for Magneto and Dr. X, which would put them now in their early 1980s. Fanboys tend to like their mutants young and attractive, so going back four decades accomplishes that. However, the movie requires characters, Logan and Mystique, from previous films to play the “they’remutants-so-they-age-slowly” card to explain

their lack of aging. Conveient. The central conflict questions how mutants should view their relationship with regular humans. Magneto, a victim of Holocaust camps and Nazi torture chambers, prefers to strike the first blow in what he sees as an inevitable war. But Professor X seeks integration and acceptance. I don’t think the cinematic world really needed a new go-round of “X-Men” movies, but I liked this one enough that I can actually say I’m looking forward to another.”X-Men: First Class” hits video stores Friday.

In fact, for chronically sick patients, antibiotic soaps were actually associated with increases in the frequencies of fevers, runny noses and coughs.

Breast implants like cake and candy COMMENTARY By Barry Eppley Breast augmentation continues to be one of the most popular and successful body contouring procedures in plastic surgery. While it may seem hard to make the association of breast enhancement with confections and desserts, they are more closely related than one would think. This is because of two recent technological advances in the type of breast implants that are available and how they are implanted at the time of surgery. One important, but often overlooked, aspect of the surgical implantation of breast devices is placing into the breast pocket. When only saline implants were available this was never a concern as they were inflated after they were placed. This means very small incisions could be used for their introduction that were not even on the breast. Rolled up like a burrito, a saline implant is inserted through a one-inch incision and then inflated to the desired size. However, the re-introduction of silicone breast implants in 2006 required larger incisions for the pre-filled inserts. Plastic surgeons will frequently push and cram the breast implant through a small incision to prevent larger scars; a technique that weakens the implant’s shell and leads to premature rupture. However, a new and improved delivery method has had a positive impact. The new method uses a funnel, a tool that looks exactly like one used to decorate a cake. The breast implant is now easily propelled into the implant pock-

et, all without ever touching the implant or squeezing it too hard in one place. This incredibly simple but highly effective delivery method makes it possible to use small incisions and perform a silicone gel breast augmentation from a remote armpit incision. Silicone gel is a better implant option than saline without risks for spontaneous deflations like a saline implant can (and eventually will). Although the health concerns from the early 1990s with have been dispelled, the concern about rupture and what happens to the material persist. Concerns lead to the development of advanced silicone materials that hold together more like a solid, resulting in what is known as the “gummy bear breast implant.” The “gummy bear breast implant” is more than just a cute nickname. It is a reflection how the silicone filling looks and feels, soft and spongy. Just like those cute little red, green and yellow bears, you can push, pull and even cut the material without losing its shape. The physical similarity between the new implant and the candy are striking. Breast augmentation continues to get better and more safe as the materials and techniques to deliver them improve. This gives women more options to choose what they feel best fits their bodies.

DISPATCHES » Does bulk really save? – According to research from Harvard Business School, paying a fee to shop leads people to think they are saving money even when they aren’t. The researchers acknowledge that membership stores do often sell products at a discount. But they suggest that shoppers are likely to buy more than they would otherwise when shopping at stores that charge a membership fee because they believe they are saving money. In some cases, the authors point out, products may be no cheaper than at a local discount store, where you can shop for free. -www.usnews.com » Fewer teens had jobs – Last summer, the percentage of Americans age 16 to 24 with a summer job dropped to 48.9 percent. This figure is the lowest since record keeping began in 1948 and this was the first time the number ever dipped below 50 percent. -Inc. » Stocking up on bulbs – Starting in January, the traditional 100-watt incandescent bulbs will become a hot commodity. New federal efficiency standards, passed as part of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, will make the production of these bulbs illegal then, followed by 75-, 60- and 40-watt

bulbs in later years. As the new standards gain publicity, consumers and designers are stocking up on these bulbs. The new, more energy-efficient alternatives are considered by many to cast a harsh, overly bright glow or too weak of a light. Other complaints include their expense, while some medical experts say CFLs can exacerbate or trigger migraines. -www.msnbc.com » FEMA short on cash? – Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator Craig Fugate said Monday that the agency’s fund has fallen to less than $800 million. With less than $1 billion on hand, the agency is only authorized to pay for emergency repairs. That means long-term projects, like rebuilding roads, schools and other damaged structures in the tornado-ravaged southeastern states and Joplin, Mo., will have to wait. -www.money.com » Closed sales increased – A one- and threemonth review of local housing data reveals that the number of closed sales is on the rise in Hamilton County, according to a report from the Metropolitan Indianapolis Board of Realtors.

Additionally, closed sales increased 32 percent in the one-month comparison within the county.

Big Cat goodbyes!

COMMENTARY By David Cain A guy I’ve worked with for four years quit two weeks ago. Coincidently, we had a company meeting the same day and families were invited. After this picnic/ shelter house affair, I headed back to the office with my kids to get my computer. The kids love the office. We do crazy things like write on the walls (whiteboards) and post small scraps of paper wherever we want (post-it notes). There are soda machines and candy machines, not to mention candy in jars out in the open. We even use permanent markers with reckless abandon! What’s not to love? We filed in the empty office after the event and the girls took off running. They ran to my desk to quickly survey the child art that I have on display and to be sure my No. 1 Dad mugs were both on the desk and that their photos still adorned my otherwise stark accommodations. The oldest even checked the mug to make sure it had signs of coffee. As she sniffed the mug and asked if I used it, she was interrupted when she noticed that one of the desks in the room was empty. There was a gasp, and they both exclaimed together, “What happened to Big Cat!” They didn’t know Scott as Scott they

only knew him as the Big Cat. I’m fairly sure at least the youngest had a crush on the Big Cat. She affirmed it when, after I informed her that Big Cat had quit, she began to cry. The realization of Big Cat’s departure was too much for her I thought. I reassured her that Big Cat would be okay and so would I. She surprised me with her reply, “now daddy only has two friends” referring clearly to the two other people she knows that work in the room. I share the office with a little over 30 people and work with a truckload more. But, it was funny to realize that my little girls both thought that my only friends were right there in that room. After all, why wouldn’t they think that? They go to school and their only friends, as they define it, are right there in that room. They just didn’t know my room, over the years, had become much bigger. Here’s to new opportunities and making your room bigger, both something we all must pursue.

Minor kitchen remodel: ‘New cosmetic features make a big difference’ COMMENTARY By Larry Greene ORIGINAL KITCHEN: This home is located in the Village of Mount Carmel neighborhood in Carmel was built in 1997.The kitchen was original and had been last decorated in the late 1990s. MOTIVATION TO REMODEL: The primary motivation for the remodel was to update.The kitchen hadn’t been updated since it was built. The homeowners had been thinking about remodeling their kitchen for a couple of years and finally decided to get serious. The old kitchen had white appliances, white accent hardware on cabinets and the original laminate countertops. NEW COSMETIC FEATURES: The homeowner loves the overall new look and said, “the whole look of the kitchen is more appealing to the eye. The look is very warm and inviting. It’s a joy to be in the kitchen.” CABINET MODIFICATIONS: A trim carpenter was able to make several changes to the cabinets including installing filler pieces to hide gaps near the appliances, adding new 1/8” rippled glass panels and adding new oak doors with arched frames. The homeowner said, “I love the glass in the cabinets, it gives them an extra

Before special look.” GRANITE & TILE BACKSPLASH: The new natural-stone tile backsplash includes 2”x4” Torreon Limestone installed in a staggered pattern with pencil molding and antique white grout. She updated her countertops with 3cm Delicatus granite with a demi bull nose edge. The new tops and backsplash are a more earthy tone and go well with the existing cabinets. The homeowner commented, “I love my new pull down faucet.” The new sink is a Bianco 32”x19” undermount sink in biscuit color while the faucet is a Moen Arbor model in oil rubbed bronze. NEW FINISH COLOR: The homeowner added, “The oil rubbed bronze accessories re-

After ally pull the entire kitchen look together. The kitchen really has a welcoming look and feel. I actually want to spend time there.” The family had a big party recently and is looking forward to having people over to show off their newlyremodeled kitchen.

Instead, they’re navy blue velvet with black strappy ties that lace up from toe to top. The heel clocks in at four inches and you couldn’t possibly have trouble wearing them repeatedly post-ceremony. -www.elle.com » Peptides improve makeup - Among the most promising wrinkle fighters, say some dermatologists, are peptides. These small proteins are key actors in collagen synthesis, and they enhance the performance of antioxidants. These can also boost the performance of your makeup, acting like molecular

garbage collectors, absorbing the toxic byproducts of skin’s ordinary functions that otherwise accumulate and damage cells. Try Mary Kay Timewise Luminous-Wear Liquid Foundation ($20, marykay.com) and Almay Smart Shade Anti-Aging Concealer ($9, drugstores), both with a blend of peptides and antioxidants. -Good Housekeeping » Shinier fixtures – It’s easy to get your chrome, glass and porcelain fixtures shining like the top of the Chrysler Building.

Understanding a designer’s mind DESIGN By Sue Faulstich

Designers are meant to be loved, not understood. -Fabien Barral This humorous quote caught my eye as I was working in our design sample library. I promptly cut it out of the catalog in which I found it and tacked it to the bulletin board in my office. Understanding a designer is sometimes a lot to ask of a potential client in need of interior remodeling or updating. An interior designer, generally a right-brained individual, is often able to see a completed project in their mind before they are actually finished specifying all of the details. For some interior designers it is a practiced ability which gets perfected over time. For others, the ability to visualize a finished space before any work begins is a natural part of their thinking process. After time spent in a resource library, on the internet, and in showrooms making selections for a project, a designer then has the task of presenting these ideas to a client. This is either a practiced or an inherent ability for a designer. As a designer I must constantly remind myself my client may be unfamiliar with “design” words and ideas. It is my mission to www.youarecurrent.com

help them understand the big picture through photographs, drawings and samples as well as my words. Like a college professor’s lecture on a poem written by William Shakespeare, a design presentation should teach as well as tell a tale. Although I come from a lineage of skilled educators, I did not receive that particular gift. There are times when I am making a presentation and it is obvious by the blank stare I am getting from across the conference table that my client is not following me. So, fully aware my presentation skills are still a work in progress, I do my best to translate the images in my mind into a relatable story. This story will allow my client and me to come to that mutual understanding that is so important in any relationship. Fabien Barral was able to put into words what a lot of interior designers think to themselves at the end of a long, tough day. His quote made me smile and inspired me to write this article. However, a true design professional knows that to be understood is instrumental in every successful interior design project.

DISPATCHES » Rent a pet - Owning a pet has been shown to help ward off depression, lower blood pressure and boost immunity. But not everyone is cut out to be a full-time pet owner, which is why some companies will rent out canines and felines for a few hours or a day at a time. Take a walk and play some fetch, but you won’t have the hassle of finding a pet sitter when you go away for the weekend. -www.money.msn.com » Parade of Paws kicks off DDA Zeko Shoes’ sponsored event will kick off next weekend’s Dog Day Afternoon, one of the Humane Society for Hamilton County’s signature events, Sept. 11 at Carmel’s Civic Square. Dog Day Afternoon begins with the Zeko Shoes Parade of Paws dog walk on the Monon Trail at 11 a.m. Help raise thousands of dollars to care for the unwanted, injured, abandoned and abused animals of Hamilton County.

Do you have a parent-child relationship dynamic? RELATIONSHIPS By Kristen Boice Do you ever feel like your partner is acting like your parent? Do you communicate to your partner like they are a child? Or, perhaps, you feel like the child in your relationship. Do you feel rebellious or, maybe, you want to take “control” of your partner? If this sounds like it fits, you probably have a parent-child dynamic playing out in your relationship. This is not something we may consciously think about, but when we pause and answer the questions, it starts to become clearer whether we fall into this type of communication pattern. This is a common relational pattern that seems to happen over time. People begin to feel criticized or resentful of their partner and how they are being treated. It’s important to how this dynamic started. Below are a few steps to take in order to begin changing the “roles” that have been created. It’s important to look at our past to create understanding, not to get stuck, blame or dwell. It helps us to understand current choices, behaviors and patterns. Look at your family-of-origin. This is a key piece to really explore and become curious about. It opens the door to really making sense out of your current and past relationships. There

are several important questions to answer such as how did your parents and grandparents communicate? Did one person seem more parental of the other one by telling them what to do or how to be? What did you learn from their interactions or lack of communication? Explore relationship patterns. How do you communicate with friends, co-workers, other family members or neighbors? Is the pattern different in these relationships or similar? Work on yourself. One of the essential pieces to any change is to take ownership about how you have contributed to the issues in the relationship. Begin to look at the fear underneath the patterns. Are you afraid of rejection, abandonment, loss of freedom, not feeling good enough and so on. Begin to change the way you communicate. If you do what you always have done, you will get the same results. Try to step outside your comfort zone and put yourself in the other persons’ shoes.

Course of action

LAUGHS By Dick Wolfsie The brochure was suspiciously placed on top of the mail pile that Mary Ellen left on my desk. It was the annual Oasis catalog, full of courses seniors can take to enrich their lives. This was Mary Ellen’s subtle hint that golf, racquetball and bike riding were not enough to fill up my day and that without a couple of sessions of chair Pilates, water aerobics, or Zumba (whatever that is), I was just going to wither away. Many of these classes are held at a Flanner and Buchanan funeral home, which is just the cheeriest idea ever. You know what they say: location, location, location. The introductory notes to the selections explain these seminars are for people 50 years old or better. I would have thought that “better” meant 40, or maybe even 35, which is far superior in my opinion, to being 50. Apparently, they think I’m better than ever at 64. By the way, I think 50 is too young to be considered a senior. If you can’t remember the moon landing, you shouldn’t be getting a discount at the optometrist. A few of the courses are worth a mention, like Till the End of Time, which is “a look at previous end-ofthe-world predictions that were wrong.” There was no class listing for doomsday prophecies that were right. Also offered is a course on how to get your car started in the winter. The instructor’s name is Ben Stallings. Page 18, if you don’t believe me.

As I was making my selections, I thought about two additional programs they should offer, and I would like to teach them: Now where did I put my... - This is a memory course to help you find your remote phone in the fridge, your keys in the dishwasher or your wallet in one of your shoes. Class discussion will include: How did it get there? Didn’t I look there three times? And: They have to be somewhere in the house; no one loses a pair of pajamas. Complaining: An art, not a science - How to avoid being labeled grouchy and unreasonable and still get what you want in life. Included are the finer points of sending a perfectly good restaurant meal back to the kitchen after you’ve eaten half of it, and returning something to Wal-Mart that you bought at Meijer. So am I going to take a course? Indeed, I am. On October 5 at the Benton House. I’ve enrolled in It’s Typewriter Time. This is a course for lovers of the now virtually extinct typewriter. “People will type together to hear that great sound, have coffee and dessert.” Okay, it’s not chair Pilates, but I’m not 50 anymore.
