COMMUNITY Philanthropy Brainard: No bad decision in November referenda By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com On Nov. 6, the residents of the Town of Fishers and Fall Creek Township have the opportunity to select their own system of governance. Three options are available: a second-class city, a town or a reorganized city that incorporates Fall Creek Township. “Regardless of the system (voters want), it’s important for the public to stay up on issues,” Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said. Nearby Carmel has elected a mayor since 1976. Brainard, a Brainard trustee on the U.S. Conference of Mayors, said there are pros and cons to each system going before voters. “The people of Fishers have to figure out what works best for their community,” he said. Brainard said in the past he has been in favor of annexation in situations when there are unincorporated residents within an urban area reaping the benefits of incorporated taxpayers and efficiencies in services could be had. City Yes Chairman Doug Allman can understand Brainard’s viewpoint, but sees it a little differently. “I’m sure there’s arguments to be made. They (unincorporated residents) use some Fishers things,” Allman said. “For me living here 27 years I’ve used Fishers parks once or twice... A lot of the rural people stay rural.” Brainard said he firmly believes consolidation
Your Vote The two questions on the ballot are as follows: • Shall the Town of Fishers and Fall Creek Township reorganize as a single political subdivision? • Shall the Town of Fishers change into a city? If a voter desires Fishers to remain a town, that voter must vote “no” on both questions. If a voter wants Fishers to become a second class city with an elected mayor, the voter must vote “no” on question one and “yes” on question two. Under the Government Modernization Act of 2006, reorganization trumps a second-class city vote. Finally, if voters want Fishers to employ a councilmanager system with an appointed mayor, a majority must vote “yes” on question one. According to the Town of Fishers, the questions are structured as per state statute. with Fall Creek will lower the cost of government overall. Carmel was ranked the No. 1 best place to live in the United States by Money Magazine this year, with Fishers sitting at the 12th spot. “Fishers wouldn’t be in the top 12 in the country if they weren’t doing a good job,” Brainard said. “I don’t think Fishers can make a bad decision,” Brainard said.
#PastaBowl2012 inaugural competition By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com Last week, the Graham Rahal Foundation, PNC Bank and Trensy teamed up to bring the first-ever Pasta Bowl to local football games this week. At the Brownsburg at Fishers, Jay County at Guerin Catholic, Terre Haute North at North Central and Avon at Zionsville High School football games Friday, fans had the opportunity to donate pasta to Second Helpings, a not-for-profit that is all about preparing meals for those in need with overstocked prepared and perishable foods. For a school to win the very first PastaBowl trophy, its fans needed to donate the most pasta by weight. On top of the overall competition, people donating could log their donation on the Trensy smartphone application to win other prizes. Hamilton Southeastern School Board member John DeLucia said Trensy is an app akin to 4Square, except users register or check in their good deeds. DeLucia said, “It’s like any of these things, if students get excited about it, it’ll be a home-run.”

BSE Science Club learns about the scientific method and soil erosion – The Brooks School Elementary Science Club recently learned more about the scientific method and soil erosion on two separate occasions. Members of the club sponsored by teacher Bill Anders spread a thousand pounds of soil with grass seed on an eroding hill and placed a barrier at the bottom to impeded the new materials from washing down during big rains. Before taking action, the club members conducted experiments to figure out the best course of action. The Science Club later held an invention convention. Each club member identified a daily conundrum, formed a hypothesis on how to solve it and then constructed an invention to get to the bottom of their individual problems. Students found ways to improve how they feed a pet, organize shopping bags and more. The club has more than 60 members.

Community Spotlight: Larry Lannan gives back by blogging
UGLIEST CAR contest
(IF you don't enter, you can't win!)
By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com As he sits down amongst the modest crowds at Fishers Town Council meetings, passersby might not realize how Larry Lannan is giving back to the community. Lannan, a federal worker retired from the treasury, is at the town council to cover the goings-on for his blog, LarryInFishers.com. “It’s my way of giving something back to the community that educated my twin daughters that are in college now,” Lannan said. “This community did an outstanding job educating them.” He’s lived in Fishers since 1991, and he and his wife saw their twin daughters go through Hamilton Southeastern Schools. Before working for the federal government, Lannan was a radio journalist by trade. He was already involved with the radio industry by 1968. By 1982, Lannan began seeing the demise of news departments at radio stations and switched career paths. Lannan aims for the middle in his blog, as opposed to bloggers that may veer hard to the right or left. His overall goal is to provide a moderate, journalistic viewpoint on local happenings. In the past 10 months, Lannan said the most interesting aspect of town coverage for him involves the vote in November, but he’s enjoyed other aspects of the job he’s made for himself. Lannan said that there are excellent employees on the Town of Fishers staff. “What I’m finding out is that we have an excellent town staff,” Lannan said. “We have a lot of dedicated public servants, a lot of people who are in public service for the right reasons… When you meet people like that, that’s rewarding.” To get Lannan’s point of view on current events in and outside of Fishers, visit his blog at LarryInFishers.com and follow him on Twitter (@ LarryInFishers).

Borschel
Borschel seeks to expose truths By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com Minister, writer and musician Audrey Borschel aims to help readers detect and decode the truth in news and advertising. The Fishers resident is the author of two separate but related works, “Preaching Prophetically When the News Disturbs” and more recently, “Sleuthing the Truth in the Media.” “I want my readers to be a little more skeptical of stories,” Borschel said. The first book is geared towards preachers and helping them understand the media so that they can “preach pastorally and prophetically during crises or when the news disturbs,” according to Borschel’s web description of the book. Borschel said the book helps the clergy preach in hard times, as different events impact different people in different ways. “Sleuthing the Truth in the Media” is a follow up that is aimed at the general public. Borschel said the book provides consumers with clear examples, tools and skills necessary for discerning the truth in news stories and in advertisements in an objective manner. She said one example she uses in “Sleuthing the Truth in the Media” involved health claims made by advertising for Cheerios cereal that the FDA took issue with. . In today’s political climate, Borschel said errors in statistics hurt campaigns and the politicians behind them. She would not comment on what news platforms or political campaigns are the most truthful. “In both camps people stretch the truth,” she said. The books can be found at Mudsock Books, but can be purchased via Paypal and Amazon.com, among other venues. It is suitable for teenagers to adults Borschel said. Borschel holds two doctorates, one in the music field and the other in preaching. She has lived in Fishers since 2005, but has lived in the Indianapolis-area since 1986.

COMMUNITY Around town More than bones buried in Highland Cemetery: An explosive legend By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com There may be more than bones buried in Highland Cemetery. At the turn of the 20th century, grave robbing was common, as local medical schools thirsted for bodies to dissect, according to David Heighway. Gangs roved the cemeteries hoping to unearth a human body’s weight in money. So much that shoot-outs occurred on cemetery grounds, noted in the Mar. 22, 1903 issue of The Sunday Sentinel. The winning gang could have walked away with an extra body, Heighway Dr. Joseph Alexander, said. found innocent of Because of these gangs, something grave-robbing different was buried with a descendant of Salathiel Fisher, the town’s namesake. Hampton West, an infamous grave robber, was guilty of robbing the grave of Newton Bracken at the Beaver Cemetery the same day Velmer Bell Fisher, one of Salathiel’s granddaughter, died at age 3 – July 16, 1903. Her father, Watson Fisher, would not abide a man like West unearthing the remains of his daughter. Folklore tells that beneath the feet of those who visit Velmer’s grave is dynamite put in place to give robbers a nasty surprise. Heighway said it is unlikely that dynamite was buried with Velmer by Watson. However, nitro glycerin was a likely substitute. During the time period of Velmer’s death, local companies used tubes of nitro-glycerin to crack limestone and construct natural gas wells, Heighway said. Sometimes these compa-

nies employed as much as 10 to 12 quarts of the combustible compound. Heighway said it’s likely that Watson buried tins of the explosive in Velmer’s grave. If any robber was brave enough to dig into the grave, a single shovel strike could set off one of the tins. More than 100 years later, if Watson really did burry nitroglycerin, the explosive is no longer a threat to visitors at the cemetery. Heighway said the tins are most likely rusted away, and the nitroglycerin dissipated. There’s a level of here-say to the tale, but due to the surrounding circumstances – the conviction of a high profile grave-robber, the family’s grief and the availability of such explosives – it looks like Watson and the Fisher family took extreme precaution. “I’d say it’s extremely possible that something like that was done,” Heighway said.
Officials from the Hamilton Southeastern School Board and Town of Fishers formed a joint sub-committee to explore the possibility of a new indoor athletic facility funded by both entities. Town Councilor John Weingardt said the project is in its early stages, with many questions to be answered by the sub-committee. “If done correctly, I think everyone in the community can gain something,” Town Manager Scott Fadness said. According to Fadness, the sub-committee is tasked with investigating the scope, location and financing of the project. Fadness said the talks on the project stem from increasing enrollment in the HSE School District. A new facility could provide space for intramural activities for high school students, as well as recreation for both kids and adults in the town, including the S.P.O.R.T.S. organization. Weingardt said a facility can give students in a highly competitive system the opportunity to participate in intramural sports and provide that type of outlet. He said an indoor facility could at one point house a sectional basketball tournament. Weingardt is also curious about the financial side of the project, but acknowledges how early it is in the discussion. Fadness said the sub-committee included town councilors, school board members, Supt. Brian Smith and himself, but it had not been formalized.

Cover Story
The stories behind the chairmen of two political action committees: as different as their views on Fishers’ government By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com
“I started off with, by-golly if we’re going to have a mayor, I want to be involved in electing him.”
Crane 12 | October 16, 2012
An investment banker by trade, some call Wayne M. Crane a fiscally-minded guy. He calls himself both an administrative nightmare and an administrative guru. Crane, a long-time Fishers resident and precinct committeeman, is the chairman of Citizens to Reorganize Fishers, the political action committee supporting Question One on the ballot, which which merges Fall Creek Township with the Town of Fishers, resulting in a council-manager government with a council-appointed mayor. “I started off with, by-golly if we’re going to have a mayor, I want to be involved in electing him,” Crane said. A regular around the Hamilton County GOP scene, Crane said members of the group said there needed to be a counter to long-standing PAC City Yes. He said Fall Creek Township trustee Jeff Hern asked him to do the job. The group came into play in August, and it now boasts approximately 40 volunteers structured like a business. “You’ve got to be diligent and organized,” he said. As with his PAC and his day job, Crane looks at town governance business-like: an individual’s tax dollars are investments in the community Overall, Citizens to Reorganize Fishers looks to structure the government much like that of the Hamilton Southeastern Schools District, Crane said. A board is elected, and it selects its own president. From there, they hire a professional to manage the system – the superintendent. And that is where business ends and personal feelings begin. Crane’s son, born in 1993, didn’t start speaking until the age of 4 and was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome. He was enrolled in an early childhood development program at New Britton Elementary, and this year, he graduated from Fishers High School in the top 10 percent of his class. He received a card from his fourth grade teacher, congratulating him. “This town did this because of the way it’s presently governed,” Crane said. “This
town did this because it lets its school system manage under the same type of system. And that’s why I’m doing what I’m doing.” Doug Allman became involved with City Yes in 2009. He has lived in Fall Creek Township for 27 years and has two kids who went through all levels of the local school system. In his time with the PAC, Allman, along with current Town Councilor Renee Cox, won a seat with the Fall Creek Township Advisory Board after seeing a planning and zoning referendum in the township pass, stagnate and fade away under a “home rule” by the Town of Fishers. During the day, Allman works as an independent sales representative for a distribution company based in Dayton, Ohio. Stepping into his role as City Yes chairman, it’s part of his duty to sell the idea of electing a mayor over reorganization to voters in Fishers. In 2010, Allman saw the City Yes PAC collect 1,700 verified signatures to get a referendum on becoming a second-class city on the ballot, making the vote for a fullfledged mayor a possibility – a key issue for City Yes. He sees a greater level of democratic involvement as part of the overall issue in Fishers government. “The reason I’m involved in this type of thing is because I want better access to the government as far as from a democracy standpoint,” Allman said. While he’s served with City Yes for three years and the Fall Creek Township Advisory Board for two, Allman only became chairman of the group a few short weeks ago. Now Allman, a republican, is the point person for the PAC, handling speaking engagements and other media opportunities. Allman said City Yes is the target of a “whispering campaign” posing the group and its ideals as a “democratic plot to gain power.” City Yes touts itself as being bipartisan. “It’s too bad we’re that partisan,” Allman said. “I believe you do what’s right and you do what’s good for the people.”

‘S Wonderful
It is our position that classic films are an important piece of motion picture history that should be preserved, enjoyed and passed down to the next generation. The Center for the Performing Arts is rolling out the red carpet for the works of Judy Garland, Julie Andrews, Shirley Jones, Debbie Reynolds and Gene Kelly among other musical starlets of the fifties and sixties as part of The Great American Songbook Movie Series. The series, presented by Printing Partners, is a collaboration between Heartland Truly Moving Pictures and the Michael Feinstein Great American Songbook Initiative. While 3D special effects and violence rule most commercial films of today, there’s something uplifting about watching a Technicolor classic musical on the big screen featuring songs from The Great American Songbook. Who can resist the pairing of Rosemary Clooney and Bing Crosby in White Christmas gazing into each other’s piercing blue eyes, singing Irving Berlin’s songs of with their smooth sultry voices? The breathtakingly beautiful costumes of classic musicals are also a feast for the eyes. Viewing the films in the gorgeous surroundings of The Palladium is reminiscent of the ornate movie houses of long-ago. Thanks to this musical festival, we’ll be counting our blessings instead of sheep.
Performance venue ‘raises the curtain’
Best and final
Commentary by Terry Anker
Among the dizzying array of “reality” television shows is a spate of programming documenting the sale of expensive real estate. As it turns out, our family is acquainted with a regular on the one such broadcast called Selling New York, so we routinely tune in and follow the travails of the merry band of brokers, buyers and sellers. Part “Business Week” and part “Architectural Digest,” the homes being considered rarely fall below the million dollar mark and routinely range in the eight figures. As corresponds with such rarified air, the parties to the transaction are, well, interesting. Often confirming that considerable wealth affords for eccentricity even as it likewise pays for Bulgari, these programs also illustrate important points about human nature. With negotiations underway, humans operate in a predictable and often emotional way. The valiant brokers scramble to assemble a deal where the seller – often already realizing millions in profit on the property – is offended by the buyer – often more concerned with
the cosmetic than the structural – as these two parties work to find common ground and mutual benefit. The able realtor works to point to the shared success of the transaction – one is selling a property that is no longer suited to his needs and the other is finding a new home which accomplishes many of his requirements. Yet an inability or unwillingness to see the perspective of the other often takes the arrangement to impasse. When negotiations have stalled, a party will declare this is my best and final offer. It functions as an ultimatum, a last word and a gauntlet. Sometimes the tactic pushes the deal to close. Often, the parties walk away without consummation. Is this a failure of the system or simply the market at work? Are we mistaken to seek compromise when we might pursue brinksmanship?
The Fishers Switch Amphitheatre is starting to come to life, and that’s an exciting prospect. Our managing editor, Dan Domsic, tells us that after interviewing Fishers Arts Council President Jocelyn Vare, it sounds like the venue has the potential to bring something really dynamic to downtown Fishers. The arts council is said to be planning an all-day Nickel Plate Music Festival for Oct. 27; it would feature a schedule of bands from the area whose members are 21 years old and younger. Not only do these musicians have a venue to play and reach the community, Vare touted the amphitheatre as a town feature that can have positive economic and business impact – and we agree with that wholeheartedly. Fishers has plenty of outdoor sprawl space – parks, fields, and the like - and now it has a venue that can display the talent of the people and bring diversity to programming. That’s something that should be applauded. Constructed north of Town Hall, the project - whose cost is approximately $822,500 and was funded by the cumulative capital development fund, the Hamilton County Convention and Visitors Bureau and the park impact fee fund – raised the curtain on Saturday with an official opening and a performance by, among others, Forever – The Tribute, a Beatles cover band. The long-running summer concert series has a new home with this project, and myriad other uses will be announced, and, we hope, supported. We’re all for local arts of all stripes, and we also applaud economic development. We believe this project will help to fortify that.

Thoughts of a Democrat in Hamilton County
e
Medium
Editor, Thank you for your “From the Backshop” column in Current (Oct. 2). It’s important to have your perspective, which likely represents the majority opinion of the readers in our communities, except maybe others, such as myself. Therefore, for balance, I would like to provide another perspective in response to your questions as a left-leaning independent in the midst of “Republican country.” On the subject of the General Motors “bailout,” I would suggest that the president was thinking of everyone when he “saved union jobs and crushed bond holders.” (Reminder, the money for this initiative was in the Troubled Asset Relief Fund, initially approved under the Bush administration.) First, by averting liquidations that would have caused catastrophic consequences across the U.S. auto industry and its suppliers at the height of the recession, he saved thousands of jobs, to say nothing of the cities and towns in states like Indiana, Ohio and Michigan, and the local businesses that would have also been impacted. Would they have avoided this loss if GM had been allowed to fail? Unlikely. On the subject of ObamaCare waivers, as you accurately state, the waivers covered 1,231 businesses and 4 million people, or about 3 percent of the working population, which have been exempted from the law’s restrictions on annual benefit caps. So your readers are clear, the law requires health plans to gradually raise their
benefit limits, and all annual limits will become illegal in 2014. That’s good for us, especially if we have a family member with a debilitating disease. Lastly, on the subject of the Solyndra investment, was the president thinking of all entrepreneurs when “he” made that commitment (the commitment was made by others in the federal government, as I recall)? I would argue he was thinking of all entrepreneurs who are interested in high-risk, high-reward basic research, where the federal government invests approximately $150 billion (yes, billion) every year. … So, for breakthroughs, most entrepreneurs likely value and appreciate the federal government’s support. Just remember this when a family member or friend develops a disease that requires an innovative new therapy to treat it effectively, and thank the federal government for some level of support in the basic research that made that drug possible. There seems to be a pattern by conservative media when discussing President Obama’s record (and him personally) that it’s fair to leave out important information when providing a point of view. I’ll leave it to the readers armed with more background and added perspective to assess if the president was considering “everyone” in these particular concerns.

Editor made opinion without all the facts Editor, You are right, The First Amendment, something that is the foundation of the freedoms of our country, can have dire consequences when used by those that don’t have our best interests at heart. I did want to point out that your statement that the riots in the Middle East were because of a movie was not quite correct. That may be true for some of the unrest, but the attack on the Libyan embassy was well thought out and planned ahead and had nothing to do with the movie.
Our administration knew this, but covered it up for eight days before admitting it was a terrorist attack (however, they will not use the term terrorist, preferring to call it an extremist attack). Those Muslims that hate the U. S. will use any excuse to riot and blame the U. S., and unfortunately, the idiot that made the film, released it at an inopportune time. I would suggest you were a little premature in lumping the embassy attack on the movie, with other unrest in the Middle East, without knowing all the facts. Joseph Lamirand

Looking for a new ‘slice-of-life’ columnist Commentary by Dan Domsic One of the best things about being a writer is the ability to really see style and structure grow over time, whether it’s your own or someone else’s. Every now and again, I drag out my old portfolios from my high school journalism days. Topics change. Flow and rhythm are modified. Voice is developed. Much to my dismay, Current in Fishers is now searching for a new voice. ‘Plain talk’ columnist Susan Bryant is no longer writing her column, which I think was a great slice-of-life every other week. Bryant chose to pursue other opportunities, and I wish her all the best! She lent the newsweekly an excellent, downto-earth viewpoint, and that is something I don’t want to lose. So, I am now asking if there is someone in Fishers who would like to fill that gap. There’s something to be said for that slice-of-life viewpoint. At the end of the day, when you hang your boots up, put the car in the garage and step away from your computer – or whatever you use to get your work done – what’s left is most important: family and friends.
Hire Us Before Your Spouse Does
Using your voice to express that or related views is a worthwhile exercise. Writing can be cathartic, sometimes relaxing, sometimes sobering and once you get into a rhythm, seldom slow. Let me refer you to the story I wrote last week about the Vet-To-Vet group in Geist. If interested in this opportunity to write for Current in Fishers on a bi-weekly basis, please send a sample column to my email address, dan@youarecurrent.com.

My son's thumbs are killing my phone plan Commentary by Danielle Wilson We received our cell phone bill the other day and I almost stroked out. It wasn’t the cost that surprised me. We pay for three phones, unlimited calls and data, so that amount is fairly set each month. No, my friends, it was the number of texts our teenage son sent last month that had me frantically searching for aspirin. Before I reveal the total, know that I came in at the lowest, with a whopping 71 messages. (I know this sounds low, but remember I have giant sausage fingers and an ancient flip phone. So really, sending even one text is an impressive feat worthy of praise. [Insert praise] Why, thank you!) My husband, Doo, was in the middle with approximately 175. He actually enjoys conversing on a phone and often will just call a person rather than text. Reason No. 37 why I love him. When Doo asked me to estimate how many messages I thought our former Chez Wilson prison inmate had sent, I imagined a fairly high number and then doubled it, just to be on the safe side. “Two thousand,” I said. Doo snickered. I was way off, and not in the right direction. No, our dexterous heir texted . . . are you ready for this? . . . 10,982 times in one month. Ten thousand, nine hundred, and eightflippin’-two! Almost 11,000 text messages! No wonder we had to ground him for poor grades. The kid is spending every waking hour, and
then some, texting on his stupid phone. And if your son knows my son, it means your child is, too! We did the math. Our beloved first-born is texting, on average, 366 times daily. Assuming he sleeps at least eight hours, attends school for another eight, and is otherwise engaged in sports or chores or on the rare occasion, homework, for another two, he is sending 61 messages an hour. That’s one text every minute. Seriously? And OK, I realize the average is less when you throw in weekends, but still. That’s a buttload of texting. Or is it? We’ve been secretly surveying other families with teenagers (and quietly judging them.) Turns out 10,000 is certainly on the high end but not all that uncommon. Kids these days don’t spend hours talking on the phone like we did; they just text. And as one astute mom pointed out, many of their messages are single words or letters. “Hi.” “No.” “K.” So maybe I over-reacted a tad when I saw the amount, but I can assure you we will be changing our discipline methods next time they’re called for. Goodbye weekend incarceration, hello cell phone confiscation. Peace out.

Childhood memories gone Commentary by Mike Redmond
Lately I have been hanging out with my pal Bob Glaze, a name which probably does not ring a bell, until I throw in the extra added attraction: Bob Glaze, also known as Cowboy Bob, longtime host of Cowboy Bob’s Corral on WTTV, Channel 4. For a large segment of the Central Indiana population, Cowboy Bob was “The Man” in the ‘70s. Talk about Must-See TV: Get yourself a tray, have mom set it up with a PBJ and a glass of milk, warm up the Zenith and get set for big noontime kid fun. Bob, whether in his civilian guise or his Cowboy Bob persona, is a hoot. Then again, you should expect no less from a man who spent much of his career with a biscuit for a sidekick. OK, maybe you had to be there. Anyway, it’s nice to report he is essentially the same guy he was when he was telling the kids to take their naps after the show was over. What Bob and I invariably end up talking about is something I call “The Death of Local.” “The Death of Local” goes way further than just TV. During the Golden Age of Kidhood, the diet of a Central Indiana youngster likely revolved around Marhoefer wieners, Chesty
potato chips and Stark and Wetzel bacon, purchased at a Standard Grocery. If you scraped your knee, your mom painted it with merthiolate she bought at Hook’s Drugs. Afterward, if you behaved yourself, the family might get to go to the Tee Pee restaurant for dinner, although it had to be early because dad didn’t want to be there when all the teenagers started rolling in with their loud cars and their Ricky Nelson music. You get the picture. Local. It isn’t that the products and places I mention were better than what we have today, although in many cases that’s true. More important, they were ours. They gave us identity, a sense of place that you just can’t get from another chain pizza outlet or cheesecake assembly line just like the ones in Kansas City, Cleveland and Springfield. Maybe that’s why we get onto this subject so much – that by talking about it, we actually keep it alive in a small way. Although it’s no substitute for a bag of Chesty potato chips.

Accompaning your spouse to class reunions Commentary by Dick Wolfsie As you read this, I’m on my way to New York to celebrate my 47th high school reunion. I know that 47 years seems an odd number to commemorate, but as I detailed in a previous column, our class president was struck by the notion that most everyone in the Class of ’65 was turning 65 this year. He thought this was some kind of weird once-in-a lifetime confluence of time and space. When I explained to Nick that the class of ‘64 had already turned 64 and that the class of 66 will soon turn 66 he seemed a bit surprised. “Gee, I never thought of it that way,” he admitted. This is a man with a master’s in art and a Ph.D. in engineering. So much for those artsy-smartsy degrees. Before you go to a reunion, there are lots of decisions to make: what to wear; whether to dye your hair; which people deserve a hug versus a handshake; and, of course, how to have a conversation with someone who has just given you a huge embrace, but you have no idea who it is. Probably the biggest decision is whether to bring your spouse. Mary Ellen will not know anyone one at my reunion, which is really very different from not remembering anyone. And so she agreed to go as long as we established a few ground rules. ”First, Dick, it is very important that you stand next to me and act like you are happy I am with you.” “That sounds very familiar.” “Yes, same deal as our wedding reception.” “What else?” 16 | October 16, 2012
“Well, after two hours of reminiscing about people I don’t know, I am allowed to politely excuse myself and go upstairs to our hotel room and go to sleep.” “Wow, you remember all the wedding day rules. Maybe you are concerned that my friends will not be as impressed with you as your classmates were with me when I went to your reunion. I heard some ask you what it was like to have a trophy husband.” “I’m sorry about that hearing problem you have. Actually, they wanted to know what it was like to have a goofy husband. I realized that because Mary Ellen would be accompanying me, I had to limit the alcohol consumption just a touch. At the 25-year reunion, I must have had a few too many because when I saw Robin Stern (winner of best-built contest in an unofficial 1965 survey of guys), I told her husband that she alone was the two best memories I had of high school. Finally, Mary Ellen was concerned whether the attire she chose for the evening was too conservative. “Do you think some of the women will be wearing dresses that are revealing?” I told her not to worry. Most of the ladies are 65-years-old, so there would be more covering up than showing off.

Wellness Consider laser skin rejuvenation to combat damaged epidermis
HEALTH
By Dr. Jodi Harper and Dr. Angela Corea
As we age, the effects of our sun-loving-days begin to take their toll on our skin. Lines, wrinkles, dark spots and uneven texture are all signs of sun damage. How can we help reverse these signs? Laser skin rejuvenation is a great option to consider. The laser is used to remove layers of damaged skin so that new, smoother, more vibrant, youthful looking skin is revealed. Other lasers have been used for this problem for years, but there were many risks. Patients often had to endure post-procedure redness and wound healing for months. Other lasers can ablate the skin but are not much more effective than a chemical peel. Using cutting-edge technology, Cutera® created and perfected the first FDA-cleared laser using the 2790 wavelength for the treatment of wrinkles, known as the “PEARL”. The PEARL is the true balance of aggressive, effective ablation along with safety. The epidermis is treated with pulses of light eliminating the damaged skin, while simultaneously leaving a natural protective dressing. Collagen is stimulated in the deeper layers of the skin for long lasting results. This laser allows experienced technicians
to safely control the depth of the laser according to patient concerns. Wrinkles, fine lines, uneven texture, skin laxity, sun spots, large pores, and even scarring can all be addressed. Patients should expect about three to four days of ‘social’ downtime where they will experience a mild sunburned appearance without the pain. Discomfort due to a heat sensation can occur during the short procedure, but dissipates within 20-30min afterwards. It usually takes two treatments to get a dramatic effect, but great results can be seen with just one treatment. Benefits of laser skin resurfacing: • Take years off your face in less than one week with lasting results • Eliminate or diminish sunspots, wrinkles, large pores • Acne and surgical scarring can also be improved • Short procedure with minimal “downtime” • Minimal discomfort and easy post-procedure care
• No down time. • Lift and tighten sagging face and neck skin. • No cutting or disrupting the surface of the skin. • Treatment triggers collagen production. • Naturally lift and tighten the skin from the inside out. “Like” us on Facebook to win discounted cosmetic services! “Like

Community Health Network, St.Vincent Health and six hospitals form alliance editorial@youarecurrent.com Two of the largest healthcare systems in Indiana will partner with six area hospitals that are part of the Suburban Health Organization to launch an accountable care consortium focusing on innovative healthcare solutions for employers and commercial markets. In addition to Community and St.Vincent Health, the suburban hospitals that have joined the ACC include Riverview Hospital in Noblesville, Hancock Regional Hospital, Hendricks Regional Health, Henry County Hospital, Johnson Memorial Hospital and Witham Health Services “The ACC will commit to standardized measures and goals and creating an environment of shared innovation to achieve the best outcomes possible,” said SHO President Julie Carmichael. “Benefits of participation in the ACC include shared infrastructure costs, common performance measures and reporting, standardization of clinical protocols and customization of work flow changes as it pertains to a chronic medical condition.” The goal of the partnership is to improve the quality of patient care, while lowering the cost of healthcare delivery. The ACC will be a separate entity with its own board and CEO. It is not connected to a federal government initiative. www.currentinfishers.com
FINAL SECTION OF TIMBERS TONE
“As ACC partners, we remain separate organizations in a competitive healthcare environment,” said Community Health Network President and CEO Bryan Mills. “We recognize that everyone gains when we are able to deliver higher quality care, while controlling costs. Working collaboratively on our goals of reducing the cost of healthcare for defined populations, we believe we can achieve greater success together, than if we pursue these aims separately.” The yet-unnamed ACC is a collaboration where all partners have formed a joint venture and have equal ownership. While not a merger, the ACC partners will bring together more than 30 hospitals throughout central Indiana. Physicians are leading the efforts to develop and focus on best practices. In addition, each partner has committed to utilizing their respective IT infrastructures for collecting clinical data, while working together to allow the sharing of information between provider members. “Healthcare reform has required healthcare systems to think differently than in the past,” said Vincent Caponi, CEO of St.Vincent Health and Ascension Health Ministry Market Leader for Indiana and Wisconsin. “Through our ACC partnership, we share a vision of redesigning the healthcare model, and have similar approaches to the delivery of care for Indiana patients and families.”

Move the needle: Consistently inconsistent
Scared to act
Commentary by David Cain
Fear is the single greatest reason people act. What you are afraid of is more motivating than your dreams and desires. We all like to dream, but it’s our fears that usually create a faster reality. You are more likely to act to sidestep pain then you are to satisfy your desires. Every action, every decision is rooted in your fears. What keeps you up at night is more likely to get your attention; it’s not the things that please you. It’s not saying we are always reactive, but we do react quickly to pains and problems. I get my car fixed when it’s broken. I go to the doctor when I’m sick. I create a budget when sales are down. I answer my wife when she raises her voice. So what is your biggest pain? It’s usually a fear, a fear of failure. Failure is defined differently for everyone. It might be failure to live up to your parent’s expectations, or your boss’s, or your spouse’s, or it might be failure to provide for your family in a manner you see fit. Failure is subjective, based on your individual perspective. However, avoiding it – personally and professionally – is your
biggest call-to-action. Your brain is at work 24/7 making you do things to avoid the big failure, your big failure. It wants to protect you from what you fear the most. Finding a common failure that people have anxiety about is a rallying point for actions. You gently remind someone of things they fear and they feel closer to you. Lines like, “You are probably thinking (insert anxiety) and I would be to…” allow you to let him know you have a window into their problems. When you get someone to reveal their anxiety and fear, you have earned trust, you have listened, you care and you have a better shot at having them take action. You have made a legitimate connection with them and with that true connection actions will follow. Actions follow because you now can solve their problems because you understand them. You can be a real partner. Your customer’s pain can lead to your mutual gain. David Cain works at Magnitude, a sales and marketing company. Contact David at David.Cain@ MarketMagnitude.com.

Commentary by CJ McClanahan
What if you could be a fly on the wall in the break room after the next staff meeting in which you passionately rolled out three new initiatives? Is it possible that you would hear the following phrase - “Don’t worry about it, he’ll forget all about these ideas by the middle of next month”? Now let me ask a really painful question Have you been the leader who has forgotten all about those great ideas just a few weeks later? We all have. As a leader, we are constantly coming up with great ideas to improve our company. The problem is that we are always coming up with great ideas to improve our company! As a result, your staff never knows which idea you will really latch on to and enforce on a regular basis. So, they tend to take all of your initiatives a little less seriously (aka - ignore) than they should. Unfortunately, you can’t get too mad at them because you can barely remember all of the edicts you have issues in the last 60 days. The cure for leaders who tend to overwhelm our teams with new ideas is to be consistent.
Stagnating growth – According to survey of 37 investment strategists and money managers, the S&P 500 will end 2012 at 1,440, or up 15 percent. That means it won’t move from where it sat at the beginning of the fourth quarter. –money.cnn.com
This probably means that you will need to slow down just a bit or at the very least you need to group your ideas/initiatives into two categories. Rules (thoughts or initiatives) that must never be broken. For example, you may roll out a plan that states that you will always return a customer’s call within 2 hours. Improvements that should be adhered to whenever possible. For example, it would be great if we spent the first hour of each day reading blogs so that we can get up to speed with industry changes. Now that you have your categories, it is imperative that everyone on your staff (especially you) understand the difference between a must and a should. It will help you be more consistent in an inconsistent world. Do what you say you’re going to do and stop changing your mind all the time. As with most things in life, the solution is simple. All you need to do is execute.

THINKING ABOUT INDEPENDENT SENIOR LIVING?
Our newest model is now open!
Commentary by Tracy Line There are a myriad of unusual and seemingly useless laws in our world. Some make us grin and aren’t really pertinent to our lives. But others are actually good for us to be aware of. Below is a list of unusual laws I’ve come across in my work. Read on for a good laugh, and maybe you’ll learn a thing or two that will keep you out of jail when you travel. • Visitors to Thailand must have underwear on at all times. No statutes on its cleanliness though… • Bear wrestling is illegal in Alabama, since 2006. I personally didn’t even know there were bears in Alabama. • In Florida, it is illegal for single women to parachute on Sundays. Is this discrimination? What about single men? • In London you can urinate anywhere in public, provided you are pregnant. Having been pregnant three times, I sort of understand this one. • In the same vein, one must check his watch before flushing a toilet in Switzerland; flushing after 10 p.m. in an apartment could land you in jail. • People with a DUI or DWI are not allowed entrance into Canada (border agents have access to U.S. criminal records). In addition, pit bulls are banned in Ontario; could
Garden Homes it be that a drunk U.S. citizen with a mean dog did something really, really bad in Ontario years back? • Spitting is against the law in Barcelona, Singapore, Vancouver and Dodge City, Kansas. Why isn’t it illegal everywhere? • It is illegal to photograph certain buildings in Vietnam. While you may not be thrown in jail for it, you will be shunned. Getting shunned in Vietnam sounds scary enough to me. • In Alabama it is a crime to be blindfolded while driving a vehicle. This one, I’m all for. I do wonder about the story behind it though.

Grammar Guy
Italicize Italian, look fancy A REASON TO SMILE Commentary by Jordan Fischer
Have you ever heard someone speaking in another language and just had a gut feeling that he or she was using poor grammar? I’m kidding, of course. I was, however, lucky enough to sample a veritable buffet of international languages recently while visiting San Francisco. In honor of my trip to the Bay City, I thought I’d talk this week about how to properly include a bit of foreign flair in your writing. Now, when you’re speaking and you want to throw in a foreign word, you just need to make sure you pronounce it correctly – or that no one nearby will know if you don’t. In writing, however, we have to worry about the presentation. Readers easily can become frustrated with words they don’t recognize unless we do something to let them know that we’ve dipped into our exotic lexicon. The way that we do that is with italics. One of my favorite passages from Mark Twain’s classic, “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,” involves a lively debate between Huck and his runaway slave companion Jim over the phrase “Parlez-vous français” Literally translated, it means, “Do you speak French?” While that’s neither here nor there, I thought I’d include it for the good of the order. What is important is that, before Huck offers Jim his condescending explanation of the phrase, it is presented in italics. This lets the reader know
we’re not in Kansas anymore, so to speak. The rule holds true for words from all languages. Common international loans into our lexicon include words like magna cum laude for exceptional college graduates, habeas corpus, which requires sufficient cause for the government to lock you, and one of Pepé Le Pew’s favorites, je ne sais quoi, or “I don’t know what.” The latter phrase is typically used to describe something indescribable. For certain words which have become very common in everyday usage, it’s alright to forgo the italics. While what constitutes “very common” is subjective, my list would include phrases like prima donna, faux pas, status quo and pro bono. This can be setting-specific, too: If you’re a law student, for example, there’s probably no need to italicize Latin words like de jure and a posteriori; and a musician would be pretty comfortable with non-italicized Italian phrases like andante, accelerando and da capo. As with all good writing, the key is to consider your audience. If they are unlikely to see the phrase on a regular basis, hit that italics key. As an added bonus, throwing in italicized words now and then makes you seem fancy.

Fat Christians: The difference between analyzing and believing Commentary by Mike Colaw
A number of years ago my brother and I were working out together in a gym down in Oklahoma. As usual, the mixture of being brothers and naturally competitive, we can brew up quite an intense scenario. Generally I get annoyed with people in the gym grunting and yelling as they lift weights. Yet, here I find myself, once again, giving my all trying to outdo my younger much stronger brother.   While we were in the middle of our pseudo friendly workout, a gentleman came walking up to us. He interrupted our workout and started talking about exercise, nutrition and overall health. The guy kept on rambling on and on, seemingly unaware that he was messing up our rivalry, ah, I mean workout.   Finally, after we had cooled down he shook our hands and walked off. My brother looked at me after he’d walked out and started to laugh a little. I asked what was funny. He pointed out how ironic it was that this guy knew so much about working out, came into the gym, connected with a few people and then walked out without working out at all. The funny thing was he really knew his stuff, but by his own admission, he didn’t practice it. My brother, an extremely successful personal trainer, looked at me and said, “I only make money if I practice what I preach. It’s sad, but in personal training you don’t sell your knowledge, you sell you.� There are times I truly wish this wasn’t the case with Christianity. Like it or not, the reality is people adjudicate faith based heavily on the package or person it comes in. It is so frustrating when people who call themselves Christians do little more than analyze ancient text. The beautiful ethics in the Bible weren’t meant to be analyzed alone. They were designed to bring life! If you are a Christian, please live it. We need to actively be living out what we claim to believe. Mike Colaw is the director of ministries at Trinity Church.

Steeple chase: Obelisks objects of the eternal Commentary by Don Knebel
Among the many delights of a trip to Egypt are visits to its many well-preserved temples, including the one in Luxor typically seen at night. But no matter how well preserved, the temples are all missing at least one of the matched pair of obelisks, some more than 100 feet tall, which once flanked their entrances. The missing obelisks were not lost – they are in Europe, some standing in front of famous churches. And while the obelisks are missing from Egypt, their spiritual descendants are in front of places of worship around the world. For ancient Egyptians, the gently obelisks’ sloping sides and gold-plated crowning pyramids probably symbolized the paths of sun rays streaming toward earth, representing the connections between the sun god and the temple. To reflect the eternal nature of those connections, Egyptians carved their obelisks from a single piece of granite, weighing hundreds of tons. The most suitable quarry was along the Nile River in Aswan. Aswan visitors can still see the famous “unfinished obelisk,� abandoned thousands of years ago when a crack was discovered in the granite, making it useless for its intended purpose. When Romans conquered Egypt in the first century B.C., they were so enamored of the obelisks that they pulled them down from the temples and sent them to Rome on specially
Luxor Temple at night. (Photo by Don Knebel) designed ships. Today, there are more Egyptian obelisks in Rome than in Egypt. One is now in front of St. Peter’s Basilica, a cross now extending from its apex. The largest one is in front of St. John Lateran’s Basilica, the seat of the Pope. Many of today’s churches, mosques and Hindu temples have tall, slender structures near their entrances, often topped with pyramids, pointing toward the heavens. These steeples,
minarets and towers continue to reflect the Egyptian idea of an eternal connection with the divine. Don Knebel works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. You may contact him at editorial@youarecurrent. com. For the full column and additional photos, go to currentzionsville.com.

Plants that pleasantly survived harsh summer Commentary by Holly Lindzy Every year I like to review what worked well for me and what didn’t. This season was unprecedented regarding heat and precipitation so if something performs well, I’m unusually impressed. It’s times like these when true colors shine through. My first award of valiance goes to my clump Serviceberry. After five years in my landscape, it received no additional water. A risk, I know, but I like to test things. It’s a native so I let it show me what it’s made of and not once did it balk at the conditions. Now, as to whether or not it will give me some fall color is a whole different Oprah. Second, I think I’ve solidified the spot for favorite annual. Dragonwing begonia doled out the blooms all season long and yawned into a beautiful space in my container garden. Perfect green foliage accessorized with prolific bloom. I just can’t stop admiring it. Snapdragons were amazing at the start of the season, so I must add an honorable mention there. And the happiest of all the annuals this season had to have been annual vinca. . . hands down, a heat hoarding monster with effortless pizzazz. Perennial-wise, I’m a smidge disappointed. Even fuss free Rudbeckia sulked over the extended absence of moisture. If I had to choose Planting bulbs – It’s time to get those bulbs in the ground. Remember that quality plant bulbs do matter, don’t let October slip away before planting spring-blooming bulbs and dig the whole two to three times the height of the actual bulb. –bhg. com

Tucked away – With mowing season winding down, it will soon be time to store your yard equipment for the winter. If you use cold storage, don’t forget to drain the fluids from your mowers’ engines and give them a good cleaning prior to storing them. It also never hurts to get the blades sharpened now, when demand is less and a rapidly-growing yard isn’t breathing down your neck. - almanac.com Composting – With fall here, composting is viable. A few tips for maintaining your compost pile: don’t compost “diseased” foliage, don’t add weeds, do add vegetable waste, do cut up large additions so they break down faster and do mix it every week with a pitch fork. –goodhousekeeping.com

New front porch increases curb appeal
Commentary by Larry Greene
ORIGINAL EXTERIOR: This home is located in the Crooked Stick subdivision on the west side of Carmel and was built in the early 1980’s. The current owner has lived in the home for 17 years. REASONS FOR REMODELING: Why remodel? “When we originally bought the house it had a Tudor look to it, even though it was not a Tudor-style home. We removed the trim 5 years ago, but it looked too plain. We wanted to dress up the front of the house, and give it more curb appeal. I wanted people’s blood pressure to drop when they came up to the house!” ARCHITECTURAL DETAILS: The homeowner wanted to add elements of detail to the front façade. “My favorite part is the columns. The architectural details in the double columns and larger trim pieces gave the house the bit of wow I was looking for.” The existing vertical wood trim around the windows was removed and replaced with new painted cedar trim. STONE WALK WAY: The stone walkway is a favorite, too. New stone pavers were installed and flanked with 24” light posts wrapped in stone. The steps are topped with limestone and the face of the porch was covered with decorative stone to complement the existing brick. PORCH DETAILS: The existing porch, front door, steps and walkway were removed. A new enlarged porch foundation was built including a new shed roof with 8x8 cedar wood posts. The new porch includes rough-sawn cedar trim, beaded plywood ceiling and stone-wrapped columns with limestone caps. The new
After porch includes a cedar railing with 2x2 wood painted balusters. NEW ENTRY DOOR: The existing front door and sidelights were removed and new double doors were installed with ¾ glass. The owner commented, “The new doors not only help welcome our guests, but also add more light into the front hallway.” FAVORITE FEATURES: The owner commented on her favorite features. “The house is no longer plain and unwelcoming.”
